The heater in the booth quit again, and Brick Lombardi is on the air in his coat. It's early October, the season is starting to show what it is, and tonight's show sits right in that stretch. We open with Lambeau's Nightmare, a heavy metal look back at the twenty twenty-five season, when the line gave way, the passes hit the dirt and everybody had a name to blame. Then Standard Bearers, a gritty rock anthem with gang vocals, takes on the North and the question of who's next. Beat the Throw is a mid-tempo rock song about a pass rusher who's already there before the ball leaves the hand. Tonight also brings the first play of a brand-new song, Radio's Still On, a heartland rock tune about the drive home after the game, with the dial right where you left it.

On a new episode of Inside The North, host David Haugh and expert analysts Dave Wannstedt, T.J. Lang, Mason Crosby and Chad Greenway discussed the NFC North outlook as Week 4 is upon us. The guys started by breaking down Bears reserve quarterback Case Keenum's sensational performance in a win over the Eagles and by discussing how Chicago should move forward at the position as starter Caleb Williams remains sidelined. They also reacted to the Vikings trading quarterback J.J. McCarthy to the Giants, the Packers' lack of a running game and the Lions responding well with a win in Week 3.

For years, many residents in Dakota Territory wanted to split it into two halves, but it wasn't until the Enabling Act, passed by the U.S. Congress and signed by President Grover Cleveland in February of 1889, that Dakota Territory was allowed to split into the separate states of North and South Dakota.

Ronan Power, CEO of Solar Ireland, spoke to Jerry about concerns that there are too many renewable energy developments – including solar farms – being located in North Kerry.

1899 GREENLAND - Greenland Defense Strategy Secures NorthBradley Bowman highlights Greenland's vital geographic role in North American defense, dominating the GIUK gapand providing early warning detection against Russian and Chinese missile threats. While recent defense agreements properly expand radar facilities and military infrastructure, Bowman argues that coercive political tactics unnecessarily strained relations with Denmark, a steadfast NATO ally. Effective Arctic defense requires the three-D kill chain: detect, decide, and deliver. Because the U.S. lacks sufficient icebreakers and polar infrastructure, deep defense cooperation with Arctic allies like Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Canada remains indispensable for hemispheric security.

This episode looks at two very different questions surrounding the U.S. Postal Service: how the Trump administration tried to use it to impose new requirements on mail-in voting, and whether the Postal Service itself is financially sustainable. We examine the new election-mail rule and the court fight that stopped it for 2026, then dig into what's actually driving USPS's financial problems—and whether they can be fixed.

n December of 2025, an email came into the Sasquatch Odyssey inbox from a man named Jimmy. He's in his seventies, he's fighting cancer, and he's the last living person who knows the whole story of an 80-acre piece of mountain ground in north Georgia that's been in his family since 1913.He never married and never had children, and he doesn't know who'll own the property when he's gone. So over the past ten months, in more than fifty emails, he's been telling me what happened on that land across four generations, and this is the first of ten parts. Jimmy won't come on the show, won't give his last name, and won't name the county, because he still lives on the property and still says there's activity there. I've never spoken to him. Everything you'll hear has been reorganized from his emails into a story I can narrate, with his details left exactly as he gave them. Part one begins with Jimmy's great-grandfather Will, a cotton-mill worker who bought cheap mountain land in the fall of 1913 and moved his wife and three children into a cabin the previous family had walked away from. Within weeks, food was disappearing, the dogs refused to cross the creek, and something was striking the cabin walls at night.In April of 1914, after three days of rain, Will found a line of 17-inch barefoot tracks along his creek and wrote in a store ledger that somebody was on his place. A month later he stood across that creek with a rifle sighted on the chest of the thing that had made them, and he didn't fire.What followed over the next four years, from Will's own notebook and from the stories his son Thomas told Jimmy decades later, is a cautious, dangerous, and mostly silent coexistence between one family in a cabin and another family on the mountain. There's food left on a rock above the spring and a white quartz stone that appeared in its place. There's a bluff charge on the north ridge that nearly ended everything.There's a fence built along a creek for a reason nobody would say out loud, and a set of rules that were still being repeated in that family fifty years later, starting with five words Will wrote under a list of what he'd paid for nails.They were here before me.The first notebook ends in January of 1918 with one sentence on the inside of the back cover, and that sentence is where part two begins.Email BrianJoin Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.Have you had a Bigfoot encounter, Sasquatch sighting, Dogman experience, or other cryptid or paranormal encounter?

Anna Lambe almost walked away from acting before landing her starring role on North of North. She had headed to Ottawa to study international development, deciding to focus less on acting and more on her activism for Indigenous rights. But it was the pull of North of North's characters — with their genuine depth and nuance of Indigenous experiences — that finally brought her back to the screen. Earlier this year, she joined Tom Power for a special interview in Banff, and shared why none of her projects have felt more personal than this show and its current success.

The hardest part of life in the North isn't the weather, the long days, or even the problems that show up at the dock when you're already running flat out. It's realizing you can't hold on to every season forever. This goodbye is personal, bittersweet, and honest: a final reflection on what a fishing lodge on the French River in Ontario can create when you do it with your whole heart. We talk about the mantra that guided us through chaos and calm alike: they come as guests and they leave as family. That single idea shaped how we treated people, how we handled mistakes, and how we built trust with returning anglers and travellers. You'll hear a classic lodge story that captures it perfectly, when a checkout-day fishing run turns into a rescue mission, a dead engine, and one unforgettable soundtrack: Tina singing “Row, Row, Row Your Boat” in a Russian accent while Ross rows, furious, across open water. From there, we zoom out to the bigger truth behind lodge life and outdoor hospitality: the real legacy is relationships. We share gratitude for the guests who became lifelong friends, the staff who carried the place on their shoulders, and the mentors who quietly made a difference, including Angelo Viola and the people who helped bring the podcast to life through Outdoor Journal Radio and Fish'n Canada. If you care about the Canadian wilderness, fishing lodge culture, and the kind of storytelling that's built on real places and real people, this one will land. If these stories meant something to you, please subscribe, share the episode with a friend who loves the outdoors, and leave a review so more listeners can find the show.

This sermon examines Daniel 11:20-45, tracing the historical rise and fall of Antiochus IV Epiphanes and his conflict with the Ptolemaic kingdom of Egypt. The teaching highlights the fulfillment of prophecy through historical records, specifically citing Josephus and the Maccabees, to demonstrate that God sovereignly governs the rise and fall of world powers according to His appointed time. It contrasts the deceit and self-exaltation of the 'King of the North' with the steadfastness of the faithful Jews who 'know their God' and resist persecution. The passage serves as an apologetic for the veracity of Scripture, showing that specific predictions were fulfilled in history, thereby validating God's ultimate control over human affairs. The sermon concludes by encouraging believers to trust in God's sovereignty rather than placing hope in shifting political powers, finding strength in the promise that the wise will shine as stars in the final judgment.

Leading microbial ecologist from UC San Diego, Dr. Jack Gilbert joins us to talk about how soil and management decisions shape the vine and wine microbiome. We start by defining what a microbiome is in plain vineyard terms, and Dr. Gilbert explains how vines "select" specific microbes from the surrounding soil to support nutrient uptake, stress tolerance, and overall vine health. We then walk through Dr. Gilbert's Merlot study that showed roughly 95% of the vine microbiome originates from the soil, and we discuss how these early microbial reactions can influence wine character before commercial yeast ever goes in. The conversation then turns to real-world vineyard practices. We cover how herbicides, tillage, compaction, and inputs can suppress or reshape soil biology.  Listeners also hear about emerging work at the UCSD Soil Health Center, including using soil "prebiotics" and "probiotics" together and developing digital twins of vineyards to time interventions more precisely.  In this episode, you will hear: Vines actively recruit microbes from the soil to support health, nutrient uptake, and stress tolerance Around 95% of the grapevine microbiome can be traced back to the soil where the vine is planted Early-stage fermentation on the fruit is influenced by native microbes, which can affect wine aroma and flavor Herbicides, pesticides, and heavy soil disturbance can suppress beneficial microbes and reduce soil function for years Building soil biology with organic matter, thoughtful inputs, and microbiome-aware practices can improve vine resilience and fruit quality Follow and Review: If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to follow the podcast and leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts!

Kyle Worl is an Alaska Native athlete, coach, and cultural advocate who has spent most of his life competing in, and helping pass on, Arctic Sports and Traditional Games. He's earned more than 100 medals, been named an Outstanding Athlete multiple times at the World Eskimo-Indian Olympics, and competed in Traditional Games throughout the circumpolar North. He's even competed on American Ninja Warrior. But as important as all that is, a big part of his life now is making sure the games continue with the generations coming up behind him. Through coaching, he's helping rebuild Juneau's Native Youth Olympics program and creating opportunities for a new generation of athletes to learn the games. That means advocating for their growth, while making sure the culture, history, and sense of community at the heart of the games aren't lost along the way. Kyle's dad, Rod Worl—who competed in Arctic Sports in the 1980s and '90s—introduced him to the games. He was an accomplished athlete, too. In fact, for almost 40 years, he held the world record for the Knuck Hop—a game that leaves your knuckles bloody and your body exhausted. These days, Kyle reflects on what it took for his dad to push himself that far—to establish a record that was only recently beaten—and how differently he understands that accomplishment now that he's tested those same physical and mental limits. It's a lot to think about, especially when you consider that these games carry histories much older than the competitions themselves. Their movements grew out of life in the North—hunting, communicating, testing endurance, and preparing the body and mind for an environment where those abilities mattered. So, every time these games are taught to another athlete, they pass along something that goes beyond technique: a connection to people, place, and lifeways.

Further reading: Wolves on rise in France as bears wreak mountain havoc Can Brown Bears Survive in the Pyrenees? Show transcript: Welcome to Strange Animals Podcast. I'm your host, Kate Shaw. On the evening of August 4, 2019, two hikers set up camp in the Pyrenees Mountains. Laurent and Frédéric were familiar with the area and had plenty of experience hiking and camping. Once their camp was ready for the night, they took off their boots and socks and sat down to eat dinner and relax at a small campfire. If you've ever camped after a long hike, you'll know that this is the best time of the day, when you can rest and air out your boots. After only a few minutes, though, the two heard grunts and growls in the darkness not far from their camp. They were concerned, but they had a fire and most animals won't approach a fire. But the sounds got closer and closer. Then the animal roared—and it sounded like it was much closer than before. Laurent and Frédéric remembered that bears have become more common in the Pyrenees in the last few decades, and rather than take their chances with a hungry bear, they decided it was time to go. They shoved their bare feet into their boots, left everything behind, and raced back down the trail. It was late when they made it to the village of Germ so the hikers took refuge in a church where they spent the night. In the morning they hiked back up to their campsite to retrieve their belongings, expecting it to be trashed by a bear hunting for food. But everything was where they'd left it. Some people assumed the hikers had panicked over nothing, but the men were adamant that they'd heard something roaring as it came closer. In a news interview they said the final roar, the one that made them grab their boots and run, lasted several seconds and was so loud they could actually feel it in their chests. Brown bears were once fairly common in the Pyrenees but by 1991 they had all been killed, mostly by hunters. Habitat loss was also a factor as people built more roads and houses in the mountains. In 1995 a conservation program brought three bears from Slovenia to start a reintroduction program, and the way people acted, you'd think someone had released a thousand rabid weasels into their homes. Sheep and cattle farmers, and people who think the wilderness belongs to humans and humans only, protested the reintroduction of the bears, and one of the bears was shot and killed. This is despite the fact that farmers whose livestock are killed by bears get paid a lot of money by the French government. Approximately 1,000 sheep a year are killed in the Pyrenees—not by bears, but by pet dogs running loose. Conservation efforts continued despite protests and finally, by 2020, there were 64 bears living in the Pyrenees Mountains. The number may be a little larger—some estimates are as high as 100—but conservationists have difficulty counting the bears properly because protesters threaten them and in one case actually set a conservationist's car on fire. The Pyrenees mountain range more or less divides France from Spain. It's older than the Alps and especially known for its spectacular waterfalls. Many plants and animals that live in the Pyrenees are found nowhere else in the world, but unfortunately hunting and habitat loss have driven many of them to extinction. The Pyrenean ibex, a type of wild goat, went extinct in the year 2000. Conservationists have introduced a related animal, the western Spanish ibex, to help keep the mountain ecosystems healthy. The bears now living in the mountains are similarly important to the ecosystems. Conservationists are frustrated by protesters who don't want bears in the mountains at all, especially considering that the Great Pyrenees dog was developed in the area to protect livestock from bears and other predators. Some shepherds in British Columbia, Canada, where both black bears and grizzlies live, successfully use Great Pyrenees dogs to guard their flocks from bears. Grizzlies are a subspecies of brown bear. But let's go back to Laurent and Frédéric's scary camping trip. Did they really encounter a bear or could it be something else? Bears are generally quite shy animals who avoid people when they can. Unlike black bears, which don't growl, brown bears do make growling and grunting sounds occasionally. Males will growl or even roar at other males during mating season in spring and early summer, signaling aggression and the willingness to fight. A brown bear will sometimes growl or roar at a person to warn them away too. So it's possible the hikers heard a bear who wasn't interested in their food but just wanted them out of its territory. There's another possibility, though, and it's an animal that's much more common in the Pyrenees Mountains than bears are. The wild boar lives throughout the Pyrenees, especially in forested areas and meadows. It's mostly nocturnal and is usually shy of humans, and its numbers have increased considerably since its main predator, the wolf, was driven to extinction in the mountains and elsewhere in the 1930s. An estimated two million wild boars live in France, including the Pyrenees. The most common time for people to encounter wild boars is at dusk, which is exactly when the hikers heard the growling. But wild boars are just pigs, right? Pigs oink, right? This is what an aggressive wild boar sounds like: [boar growl] A boar will growl to warn other boars that there's danger nearby and to signal aggression. That would explain why the hikers heard grunts and growls, which finished in a loud, angry roar. It would also explain why the campsite was undisturbed. Wild boars mostly eat plants, including roots, nuts, and fruit, although they'll also eat carrion and the occasional small animal if they can catch it. Unlike a bear, which almost always wants to eat people food when it can, a wild boar is a lot less interested in people food. If the hikers did hear a boar instead of a bear, once they ran away the boar was probably satisfied and just went around finding its natural food in the area as usual. Wild boars have been introduced to parts of North and South America, Australia, and other places where they've become an invasive species. The wild boar is native to Europe and Asia, though, so the ones in the Pyrenees are right where they belong. The only real issue is the lack of natural predators to keep the boar population at a healthy level. The good news is that wild boars aren't usually as aggressive as they can sound, as long as they're not cornered. The two hikers were probably not in any danger after all. Still, it's better to be safe than sorry when you get roared at by a large creature in the dark. Thanks for your support and thanks for listening!

This week, host Shayla Oulette Stonechild sits down in Treaty 13 territory in Tkaronto with the powerhouse duo behind North of North — Stacey Aglok MacDonald (writer/producer, Qanurli, co-founder of Red Marrow Media) and Alethea Arnaquq-Baril (filmmaker behind Angry Inuk and Tunniit: Retracing the Lines). Together, the two Inuit creators built Red Marrow Media, produced The Grizzlies, and co-created North of North — the CBC, APTN, and Netflix comedy that broke into Netflix's global top 10 and is now filming its highly anticipated second season. Stacey and Alethea open up about growing up in Nunavut, the matriarchs who shaped them, and what "matriarchy" really means when leadership in Inuit communities has always been fluid and situational rather than a single figurehead. They trace their creative partnership back twenty years — including the story of how Stacey "found" Alethea on Google before they ever met — and get candid about the real emotional and logistical weight of following the heavy, important work of The Grizzlies with something joyful, funny, and unapologetically commercial. This conversation covers the wild specifics of building a global show from the Arctic: pitching networks who'd never seen anything like it, budgeting for real Inuit-designed high fashion (no knockoffs allowed), filming in -40°C, working with an intimacy coordinator on that Season one kiss, and watching their communities go from skeptical to fiercely proud. They also dig into resilience essentials — handling criticism, repairing conflict, and why "no regrets" collaborations are built on trust, not just talent. A rich, funny, moving conversation about matriarchal leadership, Indigenous storytelling, and building something the industry never expected. 00:00 Welcome and meet the guests 01:59 Growing up in Iqaluit 03:10 One word for Season 2: mastery 03:59 Stacey's roots and her badass mom 06:39 What matriarchy means to them 09:43 How they met 11:48 Where their love of storytelling began 15:49 Separate paths, sealskin shorts and building skills 19:55 Teaching themselves to produce 23:18 Making film in the North 25:20 The Grizzlies and deciding to co-produce 29:34 Where North of North began: choosing joy 33:29 Pitching a bold, contemporary Arctic show 37:48 That infamous kiss scene 40:05 What's coming in Season 2 43:39 Acting in -40° 44:50 How Nunavut responded to the show 49:34 Real Inuit fashion on screen 53:18 Advice for emerging filmmakers 56:47 The future of Inuit film 59:03 Being a power couple and taking criticism 01:03:10 Walking into the writing room, and where to watch 01:04:41 Follow the guests, and will there be Season 3?

We speak with the creators of the series North of North as they launch Season 2 after the show became an international hit. Stacey Aglok MacDonald and Alethea Arnaquq-Baril tell us about what it's like to film a comedy in Iqaluit, about the good things, and the challenges faced by those living in Canada's North.

Kyle Worl is an Alaska Native athlete, coach, and cultural advocate who has spent most of his life competing in, and helping pass on, Arctic Sports and Traditional Games. He's earned more than 100 medals, been named an Outstanding Athlete multiple times at the World Eskimo-Indian Olympics, and competed in Traditional Games throughout the circumpolar North. He's even competed on American Ninja Warrior. But as important as all that is, a big part of his life now is making sure the games continue with the generations coming up behind him. Through coaching, he's helping rebuild Juneau's Native Youth Olympics program and creating opportunities for a new generation of athletes to learn the games. That means advocating for their growth, while making sure the culture, history, and sense of community at the heart of the games aren't lost along the way. Kyle's dad, Rod Worl—who competed in Arctic Sports in the 1980s and '90s—introduced him to the games. He was an accomplished athlete, too. In fact, for almost 40 years, he held the world record for the Knuck Hop—a game that leaves your knuckles bloody and your body exhausted. These days, Kyle reflects on what it took for his dad to push himself that far—to establish a record that was only recently beaten—and how differently he understands that accomplishment now that he's tested those same physical and mental limits. It's a lot to think about, especially when you consider that these games carry histories much older than the competitions themselves. Their movements grew out of life in the North—hunting, communicating, testing endurance, and preparing the body and mind for an environment where those abilities mattered. So, every time these games are taught to another athlete, they pass along something that goes beyond technique: a connection to people, place, and lifeways.

We'll hear Eric Guerra's vision for Sacramento County supervisor if elected. Plus, some recent election controversy in Shasta County drew the attention of the FBI. Finally, an annual library fundraiser showcases best of North Sac businesses.

WHAT THIS EPISODE COVERS  Scott Kesterson and Rochelle Porto open with a foundational argument: the colonists fought for the Declaration of Independence, not a Constitution that didn't exist yet, because their rights came from God rather than a king, a distinction Scott ties directly to a real FBI raid that listed a copy of the Declaration as a suspicious document. The two then chronicle the fall of 1776 across two fronts — the Southern Cherokee-Loyalist theater at Kaiicho River and Long Island, where nearly 2,000 Cherokee died in a British-backed campaign that ultimately failed, and the Northern theater's Battle of White Plains, where Washington escaped William Howe's larger force before Fort Washington and Fort Lee fell by early November. Along the way they cover Nathan Hale's execution, General Charles Lee's suspected communications with the British, and Benedict Arnold's 1780 defection letter accusing Congress of prolonging the war for its own ambition — closing on a prayer of morning sacrifice attributed to George Washington. KEY QUESTIONS ADDRESSED  Why does Scott argue the colonists were fighting for the Declaration of Independence rather than a Constitution that didn't yet exist — and what does an FBI raid confiscating a copy of the Declaration as a "suspicious document" reveal about why that distinction still matters? What happened in the Southern Cherokee-Loyalist theater in the fall of 1776 — and why did a British-backed campaign that cost nearly 2,000 Cherokee lives and destroyed half of 62 towns fail to meaningfully divert the American war effort in the North? What evidence exists that General Charles Lee, Washington's second-in-command, was communicating with the British during his 1776 captivity — and why does Scott connect that same era's fight over mercantilism and controlled trade to the Patriot Act and the modern surveillance state?
