Adam and I are back in the same room and we discovered after recording that our two microphones being so close caused a bit of an echo effect (especially closer to the beginning for some reason).

I legit sound like HIM from The Powerpuff Girls in some spots lol Sorry for any ear inconvenience! We are in the process of fixing it for the best experience!As for this episode, I wanted to bring up a couple of historic cases in which notable figures died and while the cause of death was listed as illness or natural causes, there has long been suspicion among some that they were actually poisoned. First, we discuss Napoleon Bonaparte I, the French military leader and short-term emperor. He had his victories, his defeats, and his exiles, his last being where he died reportedly from stomach cancer/severe stomach ulceration and hemorrhaging. More than a century later, hairs from Napoleon that had been preserved were tested for arsenic and came back as positive for the heavy metal, leading some to believe he was actually poisoned. In the late 1800s, another notable figure, this time an arctic explorer by the name of Charles Francis Hall, died while leading an expedition to the North Pole. He came down with a sudden illness after having his usual coffee and immediately suspected some of his crew of poisoning him. He seemed to be getting better until struck with further illness and dying soon after. He was buried in Greenland and the rest of the crew never did make it to the North Pole. Later they were questioned about Halls death, but since the body was not present and all they had were the words of the crew, it was judged he had died of natural causes. Similar to Bonaparte's case, some years later, a biographer seeking answers, found a way to get to his body and have his hair, nails, and bones tested. What he found raised suspicion immediately and many now believe (if they already did not before) that Hall was poisoned, but by who? And was Hall the only victim?Thank you to all of our listeners and supporters!

This is Episode 2 of our ongoing series of exploring the questions most people are too afraid to ask. In the last episode, we started with a simple—almost silly—question:“Where do cows even come from?”But that innocent question led us down a massive rabbit hole. One that made us question the maps we've been shown, the stories we've been told about Antarctica, and even the very shape of our world.And in this episode, we're picking up right where we left off.We're going deeper into Antarctica—looking at ancient maps, Operation Highjump, and the mysterious Antarctic Treaty. Then we'll swing to the opposite end of the planet and take a hard look at the North Pole… where things are just as strange. And Just like Antarctica, the North Pole appears very different in older maps. And just like the south pole access to the North Pole is highly restricted.Which then leads to the question of why…why are the polar regions off limits. Is it for our safety or are they (aka the ruling class) hiding something? I am guessing it's the latter. So what are they hiding, well we are about to find out. So if you thought Episode 1 was strange…Buckle up.

On May 26, 2025, Lewis Pugh completed one of his most daring feats yet — a 60-mile swim around Martha's Vineyard in icy, shark-filled waters. Undertaken to coincide with the 50th anniversary of movie Jaws, Lewis's swim was a powerful statement to change the narrative about sharks and raise urgent awareness for ocean conservation. While this swim captured headlines, the deeper story lies in Lewis's relentless mission to protect our planet's most fragile ecosystems.In this powerful re-release of one of our most inspiring conversations to date, Lewis reveals what truly drives him to swim in the world's most extreme conditions — from the North Pole to Antarctica — and how he uses courage, purpose, and diplomacy to create real change. If you want to understand how one person can push past fear, endure the impossible, and help save the oceans, this is the interview you need to hear.Lewis Pugh, the UN Patron of the Oceans and only person to complete long-distance swims in every ocean on Earth, shares his extraordinary journey of swimming in Earth's most extreme waters to raise awareness for ocean protection and climate change. Through his pioneering "speedo diplomacy," Lewis has helped create marine protected areas covering approximately two million square kilometers while developing powerful mindsets for facing seemingly impossible challenges.• Swimming in sub-zero waters where "every part of you says get out immediately"• Using extreme cold water swims to demonstrate the reality of climate change• Following the Japanese martial arts concept of "shuhari" to master swimming and advocacy• Creating marine protected areas like "national parks for the oceans"• Applying "speedo diplomacy" to influence government policies on ocean conservation• Building self-belief by "stacking" different sources of confidence before difficult challenges• Finding your purpose by "drilling deep" until you discover what you were truly meant to do• Using "fuss bait" (holding tight) when facing life's most difficult challenges• Taking responsibility as swimmers to be stewards for ocean protectionLewis believes we have a duty to protect this magnificent place for our children and grandchildren, and if people do that, then we have a future.Whether you're a competitive swimmer, an environmental advocate, or simply someone searching for purpose, Lewis Pugh's journey offers profound inspiration.

387 Vectors to Final and glide path behavior on RNAV (GPS) approaches + GA News

Max talks about common gotchas with RNAV GPS approaches, especially when using vectors to final (VTF). The conversation picks up where Episode 383 left off, with listeners asking how vectors to final (VTF) influences glidepath capture on WAAS approaches. He explains that under normal circumstances—flying the approach via own navigation from an initial approach fix (IAF)—the GPS glidepath doesn't turn magenta or allow autopilot coupling until the FAF becomes the active waypoint. The magenta color indicates that the GPS receiver has completed a signal quality evaluation, verifying that the WAAS signal is good enough for LPV minimums. Until this point, the glidepath indicator remains a hollow white diamond, and the autopilot will not descend. However, activating VTF triggers this signal check immediately, regardless of the aircraft's location. If the aircraft's track is within approximately 100–110° of the final approach course, the glidepath indicator turns magenta and autopilot coupling becomes possible—even miles from the airport. This can be risky if the aircraft is outside the protected segment of the published procedure, especially in mountainous terrain where blindly following the glidepath can be hazardous. Max notes that activating VTF early, particularly from a downwind leg, may display the “SUSP” annunciator. He urges pilots not to press the SUSP button in this scenario, as it can inadvertently sequence legs inappropriately or disable the approach altogether. The SUSP annunciator will clear automatically during the final base-to-final turn, provided it's within 45° of the final approach course. The episode then shifts to a common gotcha with ILS and RNAV approaches when being vectored in close. If a controller brings an aircraft in at an altitude that puts it above the glidepath—and the vertical deviation indicator centers before the lateral CDI centers—the autopilot will capture lateral guidance but not vertical guidance. Max describes this firsthand from a recent Vision Jet flight into Orange County, where his awareness helped avoid a missed capture. If the autopilot fails to capture the glidepath due to this timing issue, pilots must use vertical speed (VS) mode to manually descend and re-intercept it. Responding to listener Matt's question, Max discusses the use of VNAV (Vertical Navigation) mode as another way to descend to the glidepath for early coupling. He clarifies that while VNAV is a separate topic, it's related because it can assist with managing step-down altitudes more precisely. If VNAV is properly configured—usually in conjunction with the APPR key—it can manage the descent and transition into the glidepath at the FAF. However, Max warns of several pitfalls: pilots often forget to dial in a lower altitude, which prevents descent; older G1000 systems may ignore VNAV commands if the top of descent (TOD) is more than five minutes away; and using VNAV may not align with ATC altitude restrictions. He concludes that while VNAV has become more reliable due to Garmin software improvements, it introduces complexity and requires careful verification of ATC clearances and altitude settings.

When It's Dark All the Time - #10017

A Word With You

The lady in the airplane seat next to me was from Norway. And I knew she had experienced something I needed to know about - winter months with very long nights and summer months with very long days. With our Native American team planning some major summer outreach among Native young people in Alaska at that point, I was especially interested in what our days would be like up there. My neighbor from Norway made the answer very clear - they'd be endless! She said that even after all the years living there, she could never sleep much in those northern days where there is virtually no dark. I thought, "O-o-o, it should be a lot of fun getting our team to sleep at night, when there is no night." But then I was curious to know about those December days when we have only about nine hours or so of daylight. She told me about a time when it was, in her words, "almost always dark" where she lives. It's hard for me to imagine weeks where you basically never see the light of the sun. It's not hard for me to imagine the way my Norwegian neighbor said many people feel during that time - really depressed. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "When It's Dark All the Time." A long, depressing darkness. You don't have to live in the North Country to know what darkness like that feels like. I mean you can feel it in your heart. It may have been winter inside your soul for a long time - maybe concealed from others. You've got this smile, this really busy life, but it's still dark inside most of the time. Maybe it's the guilt of past mistakes you've made that has brought on the long winter. Or just this nagging sense of worthlessness that goes way back, or a chronic despair over the pain of your past or maybe the meaninglessness of the present, or it could be the darkness might be summed up in one increasingly, desperate word - loneliness. But whatever the cause, this heaviness inside, this relentless darkness has been there long enough. The end of a long, long night can begin with a hope-filled promise made by Jesus Christ - who has never made a promise He did not keep. It's our word for today from the Word of God in John 8:12, "Jesus said, 'I am the light of the world. Whoever follows Me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.'" Jesus promises that if you belong to Him, if you stay close to Him, He will lead you out of the darkness that no one else has been able to dispel. And that's the beginning of the end of your long, dark winter in your soul. But only Jesus can replace your darkness with what He called "the light of life." Why? Because our problem really isn't the darkness. Near the North Pole in winter, the problem is that the sun doesn't shine there. Our problem isn't ultimately the darkness of our loneliness or our despair. It's the absence of the Light! We were created to live in the light of a love-relationship with our Creator, which we have lost by running our lives our way instead of His way. In God's words, "Your sins have separated you from your God." (Isaiah 59:2) That separation could only be healed by the death penalty for your sin being erased. And that's what was going on when Jesus Christ was bleeding and dying on a cross. He was voluntarily paying for your sin, which is the ultimate cause of the darkness in your soul. And the forgiveness, the peace, and the light that He died to give you becomes yours when you tell Him you're trusting Him to be your Savior from your sin. If you do that, Jesus will shed His light on every dark stretch you ever walk, including the darkest stretch of all, when one day you walk through the valley of the shadow of death. Why don't you open your heart to Jesus today right where you are? It's been dark long enough. Tell Him, "Jesus, I'm yours." If you really want to know that you've begun this relationship, that's why our website is there. Check it out today! It's ANewStory.com. This wonderful promise of God will be all about you. It says, "God has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son He loves" (Colossians 1:13).

Tonight, we'll read about igloos and other polar quarters, from the book Secrets of Polar Travel written by Robert E. Peary and published in 1917. Peary, a famed American Arctic explorer, led multiple expeditions to the far north and claimed to be the first person to reach the geographic North Pole. His writing blends technical insight with firsthand accounts of survival in extreme cold, offering a glimpse into the ingenuity required to build shelter in some of Earth's harshest climates. Although igloos, or snow shelters, are often associated with all Inuit, they were traditionally used only by the people of Canada's Central Arctic and a part of Greenland. Other Inuit groups constructed more permanent dwellings from driftwood, whalebone, and hides, using snow as insulation rather than structural material. Snow works as an insulator because of the tiny air pockets trapped within it—an important fact when outside temperatures plunge to −45 °C (−49 °F), while inside a well-constructed igloo, body heat alone can raise the temperature to a surprisingly livable 16 °C (61 °F).

You know about North Pole and the South Pole, where polar bears and penguins live. Have you heard of a third pole? West and south of the Tibetan Plateau, a mountainous area holds more glaciers than any place in the world outside the Arctic and Antarctic poles. This region has a special significance for fiber artists: it is the home and habitat of the goats that produce much of the world's cashmere. And as at the North and South Poles, climate change is threatening the animals and people who call this region home. To bring attention to the threat to glaciers in the region, engineer Sonam Wangchuk climbed into the Himalayas of in Ladakh, India, and carried back a 7 kilogram chunk of glacier. It began a journey across two continents, wrapped in 3 kilograms of cashmere, and finally arrived at the United Nations in New York. The UN has named 2025 the International Year of Glaciers' Preservation (https://www.un-glaciers.org/en), and Wangchuk's Travelling Glacier brought the threat of climate change to the world's door. The cashmere covering the sample not only insulated the ice, it also demonstrates what's at risk when glaciers melt. The animals and people living in these regions depend on glaciers for water; when the glaciers melt too abruptly, the overflow of water sweeps away whole villages and cities in devastating floods. Stories of people and animals on other continents can seem remote, abstract, and hopeless, but joining in the movement to preserve this important resource can be as near as your fingertips. Long Thread Media is joining with Wild Fibers to sponsor the Cashmere on Ice Contest (https://cashmere.longthreadmedia.com/), which invites fiber artists to make a project containing cashmere. Projects can be wearable or decorative; a special category highlights fiber grown in the Ladakh region from which Wangchuk sourced his Travelling Glacier. In this episode, celebrated storyteller and wild fiber expert Linda Cortright shares details about why she cares passionately about this crisis and what fiber artists can do to help the cause.

It was dawn. We were watching the sun rise over the desert landscape.
"Kedem," said the teacher. "It's Hebrew for east, a most critical direction."
"Why?" I asked.
"The Temple of Jerusalem was built according to the kedem. It had to face the east. The altar of the sacrifice was at its easternmost end. The holy of holies was at its westernmost end. Everything else was in between. So everything in the Temple existed on an east-west continuum. Everything that took place in the Temple took place on an east-west continuum. Most importantly, on the holiest day of the year, Yom Kippur, the sins of Israel were atoned for, removed from the people, on an east-west continuum. The high priest would offer up the sacrifice in the east, and then sprinkle the blood on the ark of the covenant in the west. He would journey back and forth on an east-west continuum. And the closing act of the day would see the sins of the people symbolically removed from the west to the east."
"But why is that more significant than if it was a north-south continuum?"
"Because," said the teacher, "the earth is a sphere ... and it turns on its axis on an east-west continuum. Therefore, the earth has a north pole and a south pole, but no east or west pole."
"I still don't understand."
"How far is the north from the south?" he asked. "Since there are two poles, the distance is limited. All north comes to an end at the North Pole. And all south ends at the South Pole. If the Temple had been built on a north-south continuum, then sin would have been removed a few thousand miles from the sinner. But how far is the east from the west? East and west have no poles. Therefore, they never end. East and west are infinite. They go on forever. In fact, the Hebrew word for the east, kedem, also means everlasting."
"But back then no one knew the earth was a sphere."
"God did. And all this is a shadow of the atonement of Messiah, our salvation. So in Messiah, how far does God remove your sins from you? An infinity away ... an eternity away. And if you had all eternity, you could never find them again. As it is written, 'So far has He removed our sins away from us ... as far as the east is from the west.'" The Mission: Today, take time to ponder and take in the love of God that removed your sins as far as the east is from the west - and live accordingly.

Deep beneath the frigid Arctic landscape, humanity's digital legacy sleeps in a vault carved into frozen rock. The Arctic World Archive, nestled in a decommissioned coal mine near the North Pole, represents our most ambitious attempt to preserve crucial data against time itself. With deposits from over 30 countries—including Vatican manuscripts and 3D scans of the Taj Mahal—this modern-day Library of Alexandria raises profound questions about what we choose to save for future generations.Meanwhile, the boundaries between ancient biology and modern commerce blur as scientists develop luxury leather goods from reconstructed T-Rex DNA. By extracting collagen preserved for 80 million years and engineering it in laboratory conditions, researchers have created what might become the most exclusive fashion material ever conceived. This startling fusion of paleontology and consumer products forces us to reconsider our relationship with extinct species—are we preserving their legacy or simply commodifying them?Digital security takes center stage with the "Interrupt" device—a portable hacking tool that puts professional-grade network testing capabilities into an affordable, Game Boy-sized unit. Priced at just $199, this powerful gadget demonstrates how cybersecurity tools have become dramatically more accessible, democratizing techniques once restricted to specialists. While marketed for ethical testing, its potential for misuse highlights our ongoing struggle to balance technological advancement with responsible usage.From a Catholic priest who embezzled $40,000 for mobile gaming addictions to Newark Airport's frighteningly outdated air traffic control systems still running on floppy disks, we examine how technology shapes our vulnerabilities as much as our strengths. Whether preserving our past in frozen vaults or struggling with the consequences of our digital lives, one thing becomes clear: the choices we make today about technology will echo long into humanity's future.Subscribe to Tech Time Radio for weekly insights that put you weeks ahead of mainstream technology coverage, and visit patreon.com/techtimeradio to support our mission of bringing critical tech understanding to everyday listeners.Support the show

Francis Scarcella - Miranda Barbour: Inside the Mind of a Teenage KillerJan 11, 2024The Satan worshiping teen charged with murdering a 42-year-old man she lured through Craigslist claims two other men responded to her ad but failed to show up.Miranda Barbour, 19, and her husband, Elytte Barbour, 22, are accused of stabbing and strangling Troy LaFerrara in Pennsylvania, after he responded to her ad for 'female companionship' in November.However Barbour now claims that two other unidentified men narrowly escaped death by failing to keep their appointments.'I tried it a few times but it never worked out,' Barbour told The Daily Item in her second jailhouse interview in six weeks.'I knew we (Elytte Barbour) were going to do this since the day we met, and we tried, but the others just didn't show up.'Barbour claimed in her first jailhouse interview on February 14 that she killed at least 22 other people over six years in a cross-country murder spree motivated by her satanic cult beliefs.During her second jailhouse interview at the State Correctional Institution in Muncy, a maximum security women's prison, Barbour repeated her claims and said the FBI have not questioned her.She said she was prepared to show authorities where she hid the bodies.'I said before I would talk to them (FBI) about all of this, but they never came to see me,' she told The Daily Item.'They are looking for full bodies. They won't find any. But they will find body parts.'The Daily Item reported that local investigators in three murder locations named by Barbour are taking the claims seriously, but said they have no unresolved homicides they know about.Barbour said she dumped some body parts in Big Lake, Alaska, and also in Mexico Beach, Florida where she worked as a 15-year-old go-go dancer.She also said she dumped a body off Interstate 95 near Raleigh, North Carolina.Barbour lived in Alaska, Florida and North Carolina before moving to Selinsgrove last fall with her husband.Sunbury police say the couple murdered LaFerrara the day of their three-week wedding anniversary and Elyette Babour's 22nd birthday.Elytte Barbour had allegedly told police he and his wife wanted to kill together.In her sensational first jailhouse interview in February, Barbour claimed she killed 22 people in the past six years in Alaska, Texas, North Carolina and California.Explaining that she adopted a murderous alter ego she dubbed 'Super Miranda' when she killed, Barbour said that she kept a favorite knife that had notches on - one for each of her victims.Speaking to TMZ about the horrifying admission from Barbour, Daily Item reporter, Francis Scarella said that he omitted the frightening and unsubstantiated number from his story.However, he confirmed that like the fictitious serial killer Dexter, Barbour said she only killed bad people - those who abused children or owed money and that her satanism controlled her murderous rages.Indeed, Scarella told TMZ he spoke with an ex-roomate of Barbour's who said that the abused teen possessed two vials of semen belonging to her husband and that she used them to masturbate in a satanic ritual.Claiming that she only killed 'bad people who do bad things' in her self-confessed nationwide murder-spree, Barbour has been compared to the fictitious 'moral' serial killer played by Michael C. Hall on the Showtime cable network.Amid these gruesome claims, the tiny Alaskan town of North Pole has become the center of the outlandish story about satanism and serial killers that Barbour claims began at the behest of a cult leader.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

We discussed covered a range of current events and social issues, beginning with Testecleese's observations on the North Pole's wobble and its implications for technology, particularly GPS systems. He also raised concerns about media coverage of a potential serial killer in Massachusetts. The conversation shifted to social topics, including the controversial notion that exercising is a privilege, which both Testecleese and Brian criticized. They also examined recent legislative changes in Utah regarding flag displays and their political implications, concluding with a lighter anecdote about a message in a bottle. The election of the new Pope was a significant topic, with Testecleese and McFadden discussing his American birth and life in Peru, expressing surprise at the speed of his election. They noted the implications of his dual citizenship and the historical context of the name he chose, Leo. The conversation also touched on a thousand-year-old prophecy about the papacy and the current political landscape, particularly regarding immigration policies and the treatment of veterans compared to illegal migrants. They proposed a stipend for illegal migrants to self-deport as a cost-effective solution.

In 2006, paleobiologist Natalia Rybczynski took a helicopter to a remote Arctic island near the North Pole, spending her afternoons scavenging for ancient treasures on the ground. One day, she found something the size of a potato chip. Turns out, it was a three and half million year old chunk of bone. Keep reading if you're okay with us spoiling the surprise.It's a camel! Yes, the one we thought only hung out in deserts. Originally from North America, the camel trotted around the globe and went from snow monster to desert superstar. We go on an evolutionary tour of the camel's body and learn how the same adaptations that help a camel in a desert also helped it in the snow.

This week, I'm joined by the remarkable Erling Kagge, Norwegian adventurer, philosopher and acclaimed writer. Erling is the first person to complete the "Three Poles Challenge" - reaching the North Pole, the South Pole, and the summit of Mount Everest on foot. After this record-breaking feat, Erling attended Cambridge University to study philosophy.  He's also the author of multiple best-selling books, including, Silence: In the Age of Noise and Walking: One Step at a Time. When Erling was 29, he did something most of us can't imagine - he walked alone to the South Pole for 50 days in complete silence, with no radio contact whatsoever. What started as a physical journey across ice became something far more profound - a journey into himself.  In our conversation, we explore  Why Erling believes silence is where "the world's secrets are hidden" and how finding quiet moments can help us get to know ourselves better - and appreciate others more Erling's surprising relationship with fear and how being "one with the environment" creates an unexpected sense of peace even in extreme danger - like facing a charging polar bear! The three simple origins of true gratefulness that Erling found during his expeditions: feeling warm after being cold, feeling full after being hungry and resting after exhaustion – experiences most of us rarely have in our comfortable modern lives How our experience of boredom has completely changed – from being bored because nothing is happening to feeling bored because too many things are happening at once Why Erling believes we should actually "make our lives more difficult" on purpose and how this approach helps us find meaning and satisfaction Practical ideas for bringing moments of silence into our busy lives – whether it's walking without your phone, taking the stairs instead of the lift, or just standing still for a few minutes As Erling reminds us, most of us don't realise what we're truly capable of. His encouragement to break free from limiting beliefs, to move our bodies more, and to add variety to our routines offers a practical path toward a more meaningful life.  In his words, finding fulfilment is about "finding your own North Pole" – a journey that asks us to be brave enough to face ourselves in silence.

The Aurora Borealis – also known as the Northern Lights – won't be at their peak activity much longer, and the Unexpected Elements team dreams of going north to see them. And that has got us looking at the science of navigating our way north! We hear about how humans have been using the sky to navigate for millennia, and we learn about how relying on GPS may be impacting our memory ability. And while humans use maps to get around, how do animals know where to go on their long migrations? To find the answer, we speak to Dr Kayla Goforth at Texas A&M University who studies exactly how sea turtles and monarch butterflies innately know how to navigate the world around them. We also learn why polar bears keep themselves ice-free, and we hear old records of the first men to reach the North Pole. All that, plus many more Unexpected Elements. Presenter: Caroline Steel, with Andrada Fiscutean and Phillys Mwatee Producer: Imaan Moin, with Alice Lipscombe-Southwell, Noa Dowling and William Hornbrook

Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTHThe movie kicks off with this kid, Jack. He doesn't believe in Santa and doesn't think anyone else should either. He tells all of his cousins that Santa doesn't exist and even shows them where their parents are hiding the gifts—very naughty.Fast forward 30 years, and Jack is now an adult—still very naughty. He's stealing important information and selling it to people on the dark web.Cut to Santa, who is doing some mall duty. He does this occasionally to remind himself why he does what he does. By his side is Callum Drift, the head of Santa's security.When they return to the North Pole, Cal tells Santa that he's retiring. There's just too much naughty out there. But there's no time to mourn because Santa gets kidnapped! They suspect it has something to do with the information Jack stole. So they track him down for questioning, and Jack is completely shocked to find out that Santa is real—along with some other mythical creatures.They hire Jack to help find Santa because Jack is really good at tracking things down. Cal is annoyed that he has to team up with Jack. They track down Ted, the broker who bought the stolen information. Ted reveals that the kidnapper is the winter witch, Grýla. Suddenly, Grýla takes over Ted's body, warns them, and then sends snowmen to kill them. They manage to fight them off, but not before Ted gets frozen.They suspect that Grýla may be working with Santa's estranged brother, Krampus, who originally created the Naughty List. Cal and Jack break into Krampus' lair but are captured and forced to slap-fight Krampus. They discover that Grýla came to Krampus to retrieve a magical snow globe that can imprison people.Grýla's plan is to duplicate the magical snow globe and imprison anyone who has ever been on the Naughty List. She decides to test the snow globes on Jack and his son, Dylan, with whom he has a strained relationship.Cal realizes that the only place capable of duplicating such magic is the North Pole. That means they never actually left the North Pole, and Santa is trapped in a vault that is draining his power.Inside their snow globes, Jack and Dylan have a heartfelt conversation, which makes them “nice” and causes the globes to shatter.Grýla is about to take off with an unconscious Santa, planning to use his sleigh to deliver the cursed snow globes—but not if Cal and Jack have anything to say about it! They fight, causing the sleigh to crash-land. This enrages Grýla, who drops her human disguise and goes full giant-witch mode on them.Luckily, Krampus shows up to save his brother. But Grýla is too powerful. Santa finally wakes up, and with the help of his reindeer, they manage to capture her and imprison her in a snow globe.Now, the rush is on to deliver all the presents in time. Santa invites Jack and Dylan to join him. As Cal watches them, amazed, he realizes maybe it's all worth it after all. He tells Santa he's not going to retire.

The North Pole looms large in our collective psyche—the ultimate Otherland in a world mapped and traversed. It is the center of our planet’s rotation, and its sub-zero temperatures and strange year of one sunset and one sunrise make it an eerie, utterly disorienting place that challenges human endurance and understanding. Erling Kagge and his friend Børge Ousland became the first people “to ever reach the pole without dogs, without depots and without motorized aids,” skiing for 58 days from a drop off point on the ice edge of Canada’s northernmost island. Erling, today’s guest, describes his record-making journey, probing the physical challenges and psychological motivations for embarking on such an epic expedition, the history of the territory’s exploration, its place in legend and art, and the thrilling adventures he experienced during the trek. Erling also observes the key role that this place holds in our current geopolitical conversations. He is the author of the book After the North.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Cuban Underwater FormationsDuring an exploration and survey mission off the west coast of Cuba in 2001, unusual stone structures were detected in sonar imagery at depths ranging from 600 to 750 meters. The discovery was announced by Pauline Zalitzki, a marine engineer, and her husband Paul Weinzweig, who led the mission under the auspices of the Cuban government. Widely reported at the time by the popular press, the discovery has since become a topic of some speculation due to what seemed to be the lack of any follow-up investigation.More than a decade later, a scientific report was published by the expedition's lead scientist, Manuel A. Iturralde-Vinent, in which he states:At depths between 600 and 750 metres below sea level, EXPLORAMAR researchers found a set of unusual structures that they called MEGA. Since the discovery was revealed to the press, various opinions have been raised about its origin, which have captured the popular imagination. There has been talk of a “submerged city”, the remains of “Atlantis”, a Mayan settlement, among other similar ideas.Complete article: https://beforeatlantis.com/2025/01/07/the-cuban-underwater-formations/Dr. Mark CarlottoWhat if ancient sites such as Machu Picchu, Chichen Itza, the Acropolis, and Temple Mount are not only thousands of years old but much older? Until recently, a lack of hard evidence has led mainstream archaeologists to dismiss theories of past civilizations as pseudoscientific attempts to resurrect ancient myths and legends. However, new archaeological discoveries are beginning to challenge conventional explanations.Inspired by Charles Hapgood's hypothesis that the ice ages were the result of shifts in the geographic location of Earth's poles, independent researcher and author Mark Carlotto has discovered that numerous sites throughout the world are aligned to what appear to have been four previous positions of the North Pole over the past 100,000 years.By virtue of their alignment to ancient poles, Carlotto proposes a new hypothesis: that the original sites were first established by a previous advanced technological civilization that existed throughout the world tens of thousands of years ago and later co-opted by our ancestors who rebuilt and expanded over and around the older structures while preserving the layout and orientation of the site to the original pole.Before Atlantis considers the possibility that this previous technological civilization could have developed from an earlier migration of modern humans out of Africa, which later might have co-existed with our primitive hunter-gatherer ancestors, and that past encounters with this older civilization were the source of ancient myths and legends of powerful gods, lost continents, and even Atlantis.Mark Carlotto is an aerospace engineer with over thirty years of experience in satellite imaging, remote sensing, image processing, and pattern recognition. He received a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Carnegie-Mellon University in 1981 and has published numerous technical articles and books. Dr. Carlotto contributed extensively to the investigation of the Face and other structures in the Cydonia region of Mars, analyzed anomalous objects in STS-48 and STS-80 space shuttle videos, and participated in a recent study of unusual surface features on the far side of the Moon. In his latest book, Before Atlantis, Mark Carlotto draws from his unique background and experience to propose new answers to basic questions concerning human origins, ancient technology, and archaeological enigmas.https://beforeatlantis.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

Imagine growing up in a tiny town where the streetlights are candy canes, and the population barely breaks 2,000. From North Pole, Alaska, to building a nine-figure apparel empire, Heidi Somers Guzman—better known as Buff Bunny—has a story that will challenge how you think about fear, failure, and success. Heidi turned heartbreak and setbacks into stepping stones to create the Buff Bunny Collection, one of the most empowering brands for women worldwide. In this episode, Heidi shares the pivotal moments that shaped her journey, from confronting her "inner mean girl" to taking a leap of faith with a one-way ticket to the lower 48. We unpack her transition from shy homeschooled kid to social media trailblazer, and how her decision to "date herself" for a year completely transformed her confidence and outlook on life. You'll hear how she tackled her fear of the gym and turned it into a brand that inspires women to embrace their strength—physically, emotionally, and mentally. Heidi's story isn't just about business; it's about resilience, purpose, and staying true to your values, even when the world tries to tell you otherwise. If you've ever felt stuck, unsure, or afraid to take that first step, Heidi's journey will remind you that greatness isn't reserved for the extraordinary—it's earned by those willing to try. Key Takeaways: How embracing your imperfections can connect you to your audience—and yourself. The life-changing power of "dating yourself" and rediscovering your self-worth. Why starting with zero knowledge is no excuse for not chasing your dreams. The importance of listening to your community and creating solutions they truly need. How to navigate loss, burnout, and uncertainty while still pursuing your vision. This conversation will leave you inspired to take action, whether it's launching your business, loving yourself more, or simply believing that you're capable of greatness.
