Podcasts about North America

What does it take to bike across frozen landscapes most people are snuggled around their fireplaces sipping hot chocolate? In this episode of the podcast, we follow the extraordinary story of one adventurer who set out to ride a bicycle across all five frozen waters of the Great Lakes—a challenge that pushes the limits of endurance, weather, timing, and courage. As winter tightens its grip on the Midwest and Canada, our guest Eric shares how a bold idea turned into a multi-lake expedition spanning Lake Erie, Lake Ontario, Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, and Lake Superior. From carefully tracking ice conditions and brutal wind chills to navigating shifting pressure cracks and whiteout storms, the journey was anything but predictable. Each lake presented its own personality: some deceptively calm, others wild, vast, and unforgiving. In this episode, we dive into: How the rider prepared for extreme cold cycling and survival on open ice The science behind when (and if) the lakes freeze solid enough to cross Close calls, mechanical failures, and the mental battle of riding across miles of frozen horizon The unique beauty of winter on the lakes that few people ever witness It's a story about determination, risk, and the deep connection people in the Great Lakes region have with these massive bodies of water—especially in winter. Whether you're an outdoor enthusiast, a cycling fan, or simply fascinated by unusual adventures, this episode brings you along for a ride across one of North America's most ambitious cold-weather challenges.

Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training AI didn't wipe out SEO; it just exposed who was phoning it in. While some agencies are panicking about AI "stealing their jobs" or racing to the bottom on price, the smart ones are quietly using it to get sharper, more profitable, and more strategic. Today's featured guest has been in the SEO trenches for 15+ years and runs an agency producing millions of words of content every month. He'll break down his perspective on what's actually happening right now, why generic AI content is worthless, how agencies should really be pricing in an AI world, and why this shift is an opportunity to move up-market instead of becoming a commodity. If you run an agency and don't want to be replaced by a robot (or undercut by one), this conversation is for you. David Arato is the founder of Lexicon Legal Content, producing millions of words of SEO content every month for law firms and law-firm marketing agencies across North America. He's been in the SEO game for 15+ years and lived through the AI disruption firsthand. AI is only killing agencies that refuse to adapt The real problem isn't AI Does the SEO vs AEO matter?

Ready to design faster and smarter? Go to wix.com/studio to get started. AI Didn't Kill SEO; It Killed Bad Agencies That Refused to Adapt Probably every agency owner has wondered, "If AI can write content in 30 seconds… why would clients pay us?" over the past couple of years. David had that exact thought in December 2022 when ChatGPT dropped. He literally told his wife he might need to go back to practicing law. Fast forward to now and AI has been nothing but good for business. And that's the part most agency owners are missing. The Real Problem Isn't AI, It's Commoditization According to David, AI removed the barrier to entry for creating generic content. And once everyone can do something, it has no value. That's why blog posts written "for SEO" are dying. Not because content doesn't work, but because copy-paste AI garbage doesn't. Google doesn't care how content is created. They care whether it's helpful, credible, and demonstrates real experience. Especially in "your money, your life" industries like legal, finance, and healthcare. In other words, if your agency's value prop was "we write blog posts," AI exposed how fragile that model was. Why Smart Agencies Are Actually Winning With AI Here's what changed for David's agency, and what should change for yours: Before AI: Writers spent hours on first drafts Margins were capped by human time Strategy was an afterthought After AI: AI handles the grunt work Humans focus on strategy, voice, expertise, and data Content is faster, cheaper to produce, and better That shift matters. Because clients aren't paying for words. They're paying for outcomes. "SEO vs AI Search" Is the Wrong Debate A lot of agencies are stuck arguing: SEO vs AEO SEO vs GEO SEO vs whatever acronym Twitter invents next week Here's the reality: Search is becoming hybrid. This means that, yes, AI overviews now dominate the top of Google. But organic results still matter. Paid is still there. It's all blending together. Which means agencies need to stop selling "SEO deliverables" and start selling search visibility strategy. Same skill set. Bigger mindset. The Pricing Wake-Up Call If you own an agency, you know that clients are asking for more content at lower costs. That's not a threat. It's a forcing function. The agencies that survive will: Increase volume without killing margins Productize strategy Stop selling fulfillment as their core offer The ones that won't? They'll stay stuck in fulfillment, stressed about margins, and quietly resentful of AI. The Real Differentiator Going Forward Everyone has access to the same AI tools. So could clients get the same results by themselves? Not likely What they don't have: Your data. Your experience. Your insights from years in the trenches That's the leverage. And it's why authenticity, real expertise, and human connection are becoming premium assets, whether in content, video, or sales. AI can't shake a hand, AI can't read the room, AI can't replace leadership. That's your unique value proposition. Do You Want to Transform Your Agency from a Liability to an Asset?

In Episode 318 of The Business Development Podcast, Kelly Kennedy sits down with Jemia and Tim Zagiel, Co-Founders of Pacific Ropes, to explore what it truly means to build a business in an environment where courage is not optional. What began as a small operation run from their living room grew into an industry-leading rope access company that helped modernize safety and training standards across Western Canada. Tim shares how his early experiences working on ropes without proper systems sparked a mission to professionalize the industry, while Jemia reveals how her transition from film into entrepreneurship helped shape the culture, operations, and leadership foundation that drives the company today.This episode goes far beyond rope access and into the mindset required to lead through uncertainty, fear, and constant external change. Jemia and Tim open up about surviving economic downturns, learning not to rely on a single client or industry, and the importance of diversification, relationships, and long-term thinking. At its core, Episode 318 is a powerful conversation about entrepreneurship, partnership, and the defining moments every leader faces when standing at the edge of the unknown and choosing to move forward anyway.Learn more about Tim and Jemia and their work with Pacific Ropes: www.pacificropes.comKey Takeaways: The moment before you go over the edge is where growth lives, and success often requires committing fully despite fear.Safety, preparation, and mindset are what allow people to operate confidently in environments where mistakes are not survivable.Building an industry does not require inventing everything yourself, it requires learning from others and bringing proven ideas into your market.You cannot build a resilient business with a single client or industry, diversification is what allows you to survive external shocks.Culture is built on trust and shared responsibility, especially when your team's lives depend on each other every day.Mindset is the foundation of resilience, and the ability to stay calm and find solutions during uncertainty determines long term survival.The best leaders are willing to ask for help and continuously learn, rather than pretending they already have all the answers.Partnership strength comes from respecting differences, where vision and caution work together to create sustainable growth.Fear never fully disappears, but learning to act despite fear is what separates those who build meaningful things.Success in business and life requires intentional boundaries, because achievement means nothing if you lose yourself or your family along the way.Special thank you to our 2026 Title Sponsors, Hypervac Technologies and Hyperfab.Hypervac continues to set the standard across North America for air excavation, bringing innovation, safety, and precision to some of the most demanding infrastructure projects in the world.

After a landmark Supreme Court case that directed EPA to determine whether carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases endanger public health, the agency found in 2009 that indeed they do. Now, the Trump EPA is attempting to revoke that endangerment finding to unravel all subsequent regulations on tailpipes, smokestacks and more, setting up what looks to be a long legal fight.   The Trump administration has also declared scientists at places like the National Center for Atmospheric Research are promoting ‘climate hysteria' by overstating the risks to public health and safety, so it's moving to cut off funds for NCAR. We discuss the important climate and weather modeling NCAR does and how the loss of funding could impact this research.   And monarch butterflies can travel thousands of miles each year between Mexico and North America in an epic relay race of multiple generations. Thanks to new technology, our phones and other Bluetooth devices can now tell us what paths these brave little insects take on this journey. ---   Join us for the next Living on Earth Book Club event!

Today we're talking about a phenomenon that's showing up in land markets across North America, especially in regions being marketed as “next wave” data center corridors.There is real data center demand. No question. But there's also a growing layer of speculative behavior that is creating noise, inflating expectations, and in some cases putting landowners at risk.Here's what's happening.A group of land speculators, often with no backing from an actual data center owner or operator, are putting large acreage under contract with the hope of reselling those contracts. They're not buying the land to build. They're trying to control the land long enough to flip the paper.In hot markets, controlling the asset is sometimes more valuable than owning it, at least for a short window. If you can tie up 200 acres near transmission lines and a proposed substation, you can market the contract like you're bringing a “site” to the table, even when you have no real end user.-------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)  

Dalton filled in for Jim Schneider and here's a sample of important news stories that were presented: --In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court has ruled that President Trump exceeded his powers with his expanded use of tariffs. President Trump says that he will use alternatives to replace those that the court, he believes, incorrectly rejected. --President Trump went to Truth Social to honor civil rights leader Jesse Jackson who passed away this past Tuesday. --Forlesia Cook, a Washington, D.C. grandmother who lost her grandson to gun violence, stood strong for President Trump at a Black History Month event at the White House. --White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt answered a reporter who sought examples that President Trump has been falsely accused of being a racist. --Democratic congressional leaders sent Republicans and the White House a counter offer on immigration enforcement provisions that they want in exchange for their votes to fund the Department of Homeland Security. --In a major development that could reshape the future of federal election law in the U.S., Senator Susan Collins of Maine has officially announced her support for the Save America Act. --Over one million Iranians rallied across Europe, North America and Australia last weekend in response to a call by exiled Prince Pahlavi, while nighttime chants echoed from rooftops and apartment blocks inside Iran in a coordinated show of solidarity. --Iran's Ayatollah Khamenei alleges that his military has weapons capable of sending a U.S. aircraft carrier to the bottom of the sea and that they will use them if President Trump orders new strikes against Iran's illegal nuclear weapons program.

The 2026 World Cup is bringing the world to North America this summer. But the stadiums hosting the biggest sporting event on the planet face a problem no amount of ticket revenue can solve: the climate they were built for isn't the climate they're operating in. We look at which venues are most exposed to heat waves, flooding, and even the ground sinking beneath them, why this problem goes beyond the beautiful game, and why the insurance and bond markets haven't caught up to what the data already shows.Episode Reading: What can physical hazard data tell us about the 2026 World Cup?Host: Mike Disabato, MSCI Sustainability & ClimateGuest: Katie Towey, MSCI Sustainability & Climate

In this episode of the Planet MicroCap Podcast, I'm joined by Luis Sanchez, Founder of LVS Advisory, to discuss his firm's differentiated event-driven and global growth strategies, and why he sees compelling opportunities emerging outside the crowded large-cap tech trade. Luis walks us through his high-conviction “Power Thesis,” which identifies a massive structural shortage in U.S. electricity driven by AI and data center demand, and highlights key beneficiaries across nuclear, LNG, and energy infrastructure. We also explore why LVS is optimistic about merger arbitrage and corporate restructurings in 2026, how he's positioning around global dislocations and misunderstood compounders, and why today's concentrated market environment may be creating one of the most attractive opportunity sets for disciplined, catalyst-driven investors.

Today is day 51 and we are in the section on the Second Article of the Apostles' Creed on Jesus Christ the Son of God. Today we are on the fifth line: “His only Son, our Lord” and studying question 51. 51. Why is Jesus called the Father's “only Son”? Jesus alone is God the Son, coequal and coeternal with God the Father and God the Holy Spirit. He alone is the image of the invisible Father, the one who makes the Father known. He is now and forever will be incarnate as a human, bearing his God-given human Name. The Father created and now rules all things in heaven and earth through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Psalm 2:7–12; John 1:14–18; Colossians 1:13–15; Hebrews 1:1–5; see also Athanasian Creed) We will conclude today with The Collect for the Nativity of Our Lord Jesus Christ found on page 600 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).

Listen to a conversation with Cesar Maldonado, founder and artistic director of Mariachi Herencia de México. Based in Chicago, the ensemble grew out of the Mariachi Heritage Foundation, a nonprofit organization devoted to preserving and advancing mariachi music through youth education. Founded in 2016, Mariachi Herencia de México has evolved from a student project into a dynamic ensemble of young virtuosos, blending deep respect for tradition with a vibrant, contemporary energy. Their 2017 debut album topped Latin music streaming charts and earned a Latin Grammy nomination — a remarkable achievement for a group born out of a community education program. Since then, they've released multiple acclaimed recordings, received a second Latin Grammy nomination, and toured extensively across North America, bringing mariachi music to major stages and inspiring a new generation of performers.  Mariachi Herencia de México performs in Indiana February 19 at the Indiana University Auditorium in Bloomington, and February 20 at the Allied Solutions Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

Today is day 50 and we are in the section on the Second Article of the Apostles' Creed on Jesus Christ the Son of God. Today we are on the fourth line: “I believe in Jesus Christ” and studying question 50. 50. What does “Christ” mean? Christos is the Greek term for the Hebrew title Messiah, meaning “Anointed One.” Old Testament kings, priests, and prophets were anointed with oil. Jesus the Christ was anointed by the Holy Spirit to perfectly fulfill these roles, and he rules now as Prophet, Priest, and King over his Church and all creation. (Exodus 40:12–16; 1 Samuel 16:11–13; 1 Kings 19:15–16; Psalm 89:19–29; Luke 3:21–22; 4:14–21; Acts 10:38; Hebrews 4:14–5:10) We will conclude today with The Collect for the Confession of Saint Peter found on page 626 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).

Most solar asset owners still manage performance data the same way they did 10 years ago. Dan Leary, founder of Denowatts, says that needs to change. In this episode, recorded live at RE+ Northeast in Boston, Tim Montague sits down with Leary and Doug Macmillan of Portside Systems to explore energy accounting, a method for identifying exactly where solar production losses occur and what owners and operators should do about them. Denowatts is collaborating with Sandia National Laboratories to build what Leary calls "GAAP for solar," a common standard for reporting and benchmarking solar asset performance. If you manage solar assets or invest in solar projects, this conversation explains how better data practices lead to more predictable returns.EPISODE HIGHLIGHTSDan Leary explains that most solar operators still manage data the way they did a decade ago, despite significant advances in monitoring and analysis tools. Denowatts built a smarter weather station (the Deno) and a real-time analytics platform to close that gap.Denowatts breaks down solar production losses into four categories: climate-related issues, modeling errors, external factors beyond anyone's control, and problems within the commercial boundary that owners and operators are able to fix. This framework gives asset managers clear direction on where to focus recovery efforts.Doug Macmillan explains Portside's role as the system integrator for the Denowatts platform on distributed generation sites. Portside handles design, equipment fabrication, delivery, and commissioning, working from their UL 508 panel shop.This episode is for solar asset managers, project developers, EPCs, and clean energy investors who want more from their performance data. With Denowatts and Sandia Labs working toward a common reporting standard, the solar industry is moving closer to the kind of financial transparency that attracts long-term capital. If you own or operate solar assets, the time to modernize your data strategy is now.Connect with Dan Leary and Doug MacmillanDan Leary Denowatts Doug Macmillan Portside Systems Support the showConnect with Tim Clean Power Hour Clean Power Hour on YouTubeTim on TwitterTim on LinkedIn Email tim@cleanpowerhour.com Review Clean Power Hour on Apple PodcastsThe Clean Power Hour is produced by the Clean Power Consulting Group and created by Tim Montague.

When the United Reformed Churches in North America formed in 1996, they didn't just create another denomination; they made deliberate choices about identity rooted in centuries of Reformed tradition. From adopting the Three Forms of Unity to implementing a strict subscription rooted in the Synod of Dort, to maintaining commitments such as catechetical preaching, every decision reveals the URCNA's commitment to preserving Reformed confessionalism. Dr. Cornelis Venema joins us to explore how confessional standards function in church life, how subscription shapes accountability, and why understanding these theological distinctives matters for anyone interested in Reformed ecclesiology today.

FOLLOW RICHARD Website: https://www.strangeplanet.ca YouTube: @strangeplanetradio Instagram: @richardsyrettstrangeplanet TikTok: @therealstrangeplanet EP. #1322 The Great Giant Erasure: Who Buried America's Ancient Titans? For more than a century, American newspapers reported astonishing discoveries: enormous human skeletons unearthed from ancient burial mounds — some said to stand eight or nine feet tall, with double rows of teeth and even horned skulls. Then, almost overnight, the reports vanished. Were these early accounts hoaxes, misidentified remains, or fragments of a forgotten chapter of human history quietly buried? Investigative journalist Kristan T. Harris has combed through Library of Congress archives and historical collections, cataloguing more than a thousand newspaper reports of giant skeleton discoveries across North America. Tonight, we explore the evidence, the disappearances, and the enduring question: were giants myth… or suppressed history? GUEST: Kristan T. Harris is an independent investigative journalist and co-founder of The Rundown Live, known for blending frontline citizen journalism with deep archival research into hidden history and power structures. His reporting during the George Floyd and Kenosha unrest drew national attention, while his investigative work has included releasing Ghislaine Maxwell trial transcripts, uncovering sealed FBI documents through FOIA, and contributing to documentaries on government secrecy and media manipulation. A former MUFON investigator with a passion for the esoteric, Harris has spent years researching historical newspaper archives — cataloguing more than a thousand reports of giant human skeleton discoveries across North America.

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.

Kelly shares how impossible 300 plus episodes felt at the beginning, how the early days were full of uncertainty and scrambling for guests, and how planning ahead became the foundation that made consistency possible. He breaks down how podcasting and entrepreneurship change you, why growth comes from staying in motion, and why the further you go, the more you realize you still have to learn.He then delivers ten hard-earned lessons that apply to podcasting, personal branding, and building a business: share what you are afraid to share, lean into your unique perspective, expect your impact to outgrow your imagination, and commit to routines that keep you showing up. Kelly also talks about rituals and habits that make a show yours, why listener messages matter more than you think, and why your show is never “good enough” if you want it to keep improving.

Pocahontas's life is shrouded in myth – but how much of that lore is true? Speaking to Emily Briffett, historian Camilla Townsend brings us face to face with the real Pocahontas, revealing how she acted as a diplomatic bridge in a fragile encounter with English colonists – and considering the way in which her legacy still shapes our view of American history. ----- GO BEYOND THE PODCAST The story of Native American societies decimated by European arrival is a familiar one.

This week, following an unusual situation that erupted in the skies over El Paso, Texas, last week that placed the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) on high alert, the U.S. Department of Defense revealed the recent testing of a new counter-drone laser weapon that was reportedly deployed to neutralize a security threat at the U.S. southern border. However, as further reporting has revealed, it seems there was more to this story... and of course, plenty of UAP speculation involving alleged sightings of aerial objects in American airspace.  This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we look at this alarming incident, what we know, and also its similarities to events in 2023 that resulted in the shoot-downs of several "unidentified aerial objects" over North America. Finally, what can we learn from a deeper look at the history of similar incidents involving alleged UFOs from over the decades?  Want to advertise/sponsor The Micah Hanks Program?
