Michael is the owner of EversonCE, a professional continuing education brand focused on practical, evidence-informed massage and manual therapy education. This online platform was a career shift that Michael made during the pandemic to provide continuing education to manual therapists who no longer had access to in-person learning. We learned about how this RMT and Manual Osteopath got into the world of teaching and then the shift into online education. He has also recently left Nova Scotia where he started his career in manual therapy and relocated to Winnipeg after a 36 hour road trip.

A Nova Scotia man has been acquitted of some charges, after creating sexually explicit images of his classmates. CBC Reporter Blair Rhodes tells us more about the case, and Dalhousie law professor Suzie Dunn explains how the current gap in the law makes it hard to get convictions, when it comes to distributing AI-generated images.

How do political campaigns actually win once the voting starts?This week on Balance of Power, Annalise Klingbeil, Leah Ward and Shannon Phillips unpack the strategy behind the federal NDP leadership race as voting begins, check in on the budget fight unfolding in Nova Scotia, and talk about the rarely discussed cost of maintaining a political image in the age of constant cameras.First: the mechanics of a ranked-ballot leadership race. What do campaigns actually do once voting begins? How do second-choice alliances form behind the scenes, and why do turnout and member mobilization matter more than anything else in the final weeks?Then: Nova Scotia politics. Nova Scotia NDP leader Claudia Chender joins the show to explain how public protests forced Premier Tim Houston's government to partially reverse controversial budget cuts, and why telling human stories can still change political outcomes.Plus: the cost of a political face. From wardrobe budgets to cosmetic procedures to the constant scrutiny of cameras and social media, the panel discusses the financial and personal pressures women and gender-diverse politicians face that most voters never see.Leadership race strategy, opposition politics, and the realities of modern political image.Welcome to Balance of Power.Have a comment or idea? email us: suggestionbox@balanceofpowerpod.caGuestMLA Claudia Chenderhttps://www.claudiachender.ca/Mentioned in this episodeLeft East to West Podcasthttps://open.spotify.com/show/5GLYrK3yElLMVYAML7W1gtShannon's Substackhttps://shannonphillips.substack.com/p/a-middle-power-but-actually Hosted on Acast.

In this episode of The Healers Cafe Manon speaks with Dayna Wylder, discussed her book "Unlearn Disease, Relearn Well-being," which chronicles her journey with multiple sclerosis and energy healing. She introduced bioresonance scanning, which provides a snapshot of the energy body, and demonstrated its use on Tony, who has post-neuralgia pain.  For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/dayna-wilder2     Highlights from today's episode include:  Dayna: Explains how bioresonance scanning reads the body's energy blueprint to reveal hidden patterns behind symptoms like post-shingles nerve pain. Dayna: Guides Tony through a remote frequency-based treatment using intention, breath, and specific organ-focused frequencies (lungs, kidneys, spleen, abdomen, Liberator). Manon: Connects Tony's current pain to past trauma and the pandemic period, highlighting how emotional suppression and grief can manifest as long-lasting physical symptoms despite multiple previous therapies.   ABOUT DAYNA WYLDER: Dayna Wylder is an energy healing practitioner, author, and guide devoted to helping people reconnect with their bodies and rediscover their innate capacity for healing. After years of living in a state of disconnection shaped by trauma, chronic stress, and nervous system dysregulation, she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis — a moment that became not an ending, but an awakening. Unwilling to accept a life defined solely by symptoms or limitations, she began a deep exploration into the mind–body connection, subtle energy, and ancient healing systems. Through this journey, she discovered the profound wisdom of the five koshas — the layers of the human experience described in yogic philosophy — and began to understand that true healing must occur not just in the physical body, but across the energetic, emotional, mental, and spiritual dimensions of being. Her work now blends modern neuroscience, frequency and sound healing, somatic awareness, and biofield tuning with Eastern and Western wisdom traditions. She draws inspiration from pioneers in the fields of longevity, nervous system regulation, and consciousness studies, while grounding her approach in lived experience, intuition, and compassion. Dayna is the author of an upcoming book - Unlearn Dis-ease Relearn Well-being - that shares both her deeply personal story and the practical, integrative tools she used to change her relationship with her body and her diagnosis. Her message is not about "fixing" what is broken, but about restoring communication between the body, mind, and soul. Through private sessions, group sound baths, healing circles, and online teachings, she empowers others to shift from fear into curiosity, from resistance into listening, and from survival into wholeness. Her work is an invitation: to soften, to reconnect, and to awaken the healer within. Core purpose/passion: I am here to offer hope and shift what people believe is possible. My work moves beyond treating illness and into restoring alignment between body, mind, and spirit. Through energy medicine, sound, and conscious living, I support those who feel sick or disconnected in reconnecting with their natural intelligence. Aligned living then becomes the path not just to healing, but to preventing future suffering and expanding human potential. This is not about fixing what's broken — it's about remembering what has always been whole.

In this episode of The Healers Cafe Manon speaks with Dayna Wylder, an energy healing practitioner and author, discusses her journey from being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) to reconnecting with her body and innate healing capacity. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/dayna-wilder     Highlights from today's episode include:  Gratitude as medicine: She chose to be "grateful before there was anything to be grateful for," using gratitude and mindset as active healing tools. Frequency and choice: We are "antennas to the field," and what we broadcast—fear or love—shapes our health, relationships, and reality. Refusing limiting narratives: You chose to step away from fear-based MS support groups and not identify with a doom-and-gloom prognosis, protecting your mindset and healing path.   ABOUT DAYNA WYLDER: Dayna Wylder is an energy healing practitioner, author, and guide devoted to helping people reconnect with their bodies and rediscover their innate capacity for healing.

In this episode of Crime Bit, we examine the disappearance of 6-year-old Lily Sullivan and her 4-year-old brother Jack Sullivan from their rural home in Pictou County, Nova Scotia on May 2, 2025. With a remote property, no cell service, and a narrow window between backyard play and silence, family and neighbors raise the alarm as RCMP launch an urgent search using K9s, drones, and ground teams to lock down the first hours.The case matters because remote terrain can erase clues fast, leaving investigators dependent on timelines, search coverage, and what can be verified early. We break down the confirmed facts, the first leads, and the questions that shaped the initial response.

The brother of a Nobel Peace Prize winner detained in Iran says there's no escape for those trapped in prisons -- and he's afraid of what the regime will do to them in the fog of war. A Nova Scotia father says provincial cuts to programs for people with disabilities, like the one his daughter uses, are a real punch in the gut -- and he's not sure how families like his will cope. We'll pay tribute to Yanar Mohammed, who was killed by gunmen in Baghdad this week -- after decades of fighting for equality and safety for women in Iraq.A Canadian man has been held in ICE detention for the past four months; his brother says his family wants him back home -- but first, they just want him to go before a judge. A curator of old movies tells us about finding a lost gem by a true pioneer of silent film -- and the man who gave him that lost gem tells us just how close he came to chucking it in a dumpster. A Las Vegas casino magnate lays his cards on the table: he wants Canadians who are avoiding travel to the U.S. back at his blackjack tables and slot machines -- and he's willing to take a gamble of his own to get us there. As It Happens, the Thursday edition. Radio that's not sure it'll visit -- but won't roulette out.

We cover a whole bunch of breaking news in this episode. Construction productivity is collapsing (−37% since 2001) amid a massive retiring workforce and small‑firm dominance, constraining new supply and raising costs. Affordability gains are concentrated in condos — not broad-based — while taxes, development charges and stalled starts (RESCON’s HST‑holiday pitch) risk deepening the supply shortfall. Financial and market stress is rising: power‑of‑sale listings are spiking in Ontario, rental affordability is worsening regionally (Nova Scotia worst), and growing private‑credit exposure could tighten financing for builders and buyers.

In this episode of The Food Professor Podcast, hosts Michael LeBlanc and Dr. Sylvain Charlebois begin with their weekly conversation on the latest food and agriculture news shaping the global agri-food economy. The discussion covers geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and the potential ripple effects on energy prices, transportation costs, and food inflation. The hosts explore how rising fuel prices could impact the cost of food production and distribution and how much money already strapped Canadians have to spend on food, while also discussing broader global trade implications for agriculture.  And maybe, just maybe, the upside to the war in Iran.  They also talk about the social media CEO burger-bit war between McDonalds and Burger King, and of course A&W! The episode also examines Canada's evolving international relationships, including new diplomatic and trade developments involving India and Australia, India being a critical growth market for Canadian agricultural exports. LeBlanc and Charlebois discuss the importance of pulses, grains, and other agri-food commodities in strengthening Canada's role as a global food supplier. They also look at new interprovincial agreements that could expand alcohol trade between Ontario and Nova Scotia, highlighting the potential for Nova Scotia's amazing wine and beverage producers to reach new domestic markets. The hosts round out the news segment with commentary on front-of-package nutrition labelling research and how such policies may influence consumer behaviour and long-term public health outcomes.  The conversation then shifts to an in-depth interview with Gavin Schneider, CEO and Co-Founder of Maia Farms, a Vancouver-based food technology company developing sustainable mushroom and mycelium-based protein ingredients. Schneider explains how Maia Farms originated from the Canadian Space Agency's Deep Space Food Challenge, which aimed to develop food production systems for future space missions. What began as a solution for astronauts has since evolved into a rapidly growing food innovation company focused on improving everyday food products on Earth. Schneider describes how Maia Farms operates primarily as a B2B ingredient supplier, partnering with food manufacturers to integrate mushroom-based ingredients into a wide range of products. These ingredients can replace or complement traditional proteins such as soy, pea, or meat while improving taste, texture, and nutritional value. The company's mushroom-based proteins are already being used in ready-to-eat meals, soups, snacks, and other packaged foods. A key differentiator for Maia Farms is its scalable distributed manufacturing model, which allows the company to partner with production facilities across North America rather than building capital-intensive factories. This strategy has enabled Maia Farms to scale quickly while remaining capital efficient. Schneider also discusses the emerging concept of balanced protein, blending mushroom ingredients with animal proteins to enhance flavour, nutrition, and sustainability while maintaining consumer familiarity. As the global food system seeks new ways to feed a growing population, Maia Farms believes mushrooms and fermentation-based proteins will play an increasingly important role.

How attacks in the Middle East sent oil prices up 10% and why the Strait of Hormuz matters so much, with roughly 20% of the world's oil flowing through that narrow passage. Higher fossil fuel prices could accelerate renewables — but also risk boosting inflation and slowing clean energy investment. Support The Clean Energy Show on Patreon. Balcony solar is catching on in the U.S., with Utah leading and 28 other states considering legislation. Inspired by Germany's four million plug-in systems, these affordable panels can plug into a standard outlet and cover up to 15–20% of a household's electricity use. We dive into a promising new battery paper in Nature exploring higher energy density, faster charging, and fewer raw materials — with the usual reminder that lab success doesn't guarantee mass production. A New Jersey data centre pairs rooftop solar with 23 MWh of battery storage, showing how large facilities can boost energy independence while supporting the grid. Plus: real-world data from Montreal shows electric semi-trucks could save fleets about $160,000 per truck over six years compared to diesel. In the Lightning Round: Tesla begins official sales in Morocco, BYD heads to Pakistan, a major Greenpeace court ruling, record U.S. battery installations, China's solar surge, nuclear plants vs. jellyfish, and Toyota Canada deploying humanoid robots in RAV4 production.

ADRA Insider Podcast for February, 2026 In this episode of the ADRA Insider Podcast, Lyle Notice visits the Community Service Program being conducted in North Sydney, Nova Scotia

Have you ever caught a marine fish that was dressed like a convict and had goofy-looking teeth that made you think you could hear a banjo playing in the distance? Ok, maybe that was unfair to all the banjo-playing fish out there, but you may have caught a sheepshead. Sheepshead can be found along the Western Atlantic coast from Nova Scotia down to Brazil, with high abundance in the Gulf of Mexico. They are common both inshore and on barnacle-encrusted structures from as shallow as two feet of water out to the oil platforms offshore. They are tender biters, hard fighters, and even better as a table fare. Although they have mostly swam under the radar (pun intended), the word is starting to get out on this species. To discuss sheepshead biology, movement, and management, Wes teams up with Dr. Mike Andres and his graduate student/research associate Alyssa Pagel. No sheep were harmed in the making of this podcast.  Do you have questions or comments? Follow the Fish University Facebook community and chat with Wes or suggest future episodes!

Episode 408: In August 2015, 22-year-old Dalhousie University physics student Taylor Samson walked into an apartment on Henry Street in Halifax, Nova Scotia, carrying 20 pounds of marijuana. He never walked out. What followed became one of Nova Scotia's most closely watched murder cases. William “Will” Sandeson — a former university track athlete and incoming medical student — was arrested days later. Surveillance footage showed Samson entering Sandeson's apartment. Blood and DNA evidence tied the scene to a fatal gunshot. Samson's body was never recovered. This is the story of Taylor Samson's disappearance, and the long road to justice for his killer.

The bombing campaign in Iran has drawn in other countries. The U.S. and Israel are targeting Iran, but nations including UAE, Kuwait, Qatar and Saudi Arabia are coming under fire from Tehran. And Lebanon's Hezbollah is also playing a role — firing rockets at Israel, and drawing Israeli airstrikes. U.S. president Donald Trump says operations are likely to last four or five weeks. But, he hasn't ruled out hostilities lasting “far longer.”We have reports from the region, with correspondents on the ground in Amman, Jerusalem, and Washington.And: The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps is a designated terrorist organization in Canada. So why do so many Iranians here say they are being threatened by its members?Also: As of January, Ozempic is no longer protected by an exclusivity patent in Canada. That means other companies can make generics here. We look at how that process is going.Plus: Public service cuts in Nova Scotia, and more.

Something big … and something small. Let us start with big. In Nova Scotia … Premier Tim Houston has a dream. He calls it Wind West. Sixty gigawatts of offshore wind turbines. A transmission line to move that power across Canada and into the United States. The price tag … sixty billion dollars. Forty billion for the turbines. Twenty billion for the cables. But Ottawa says … not so fast. Federal Energy Minister Tim Hodgson told reporters the Major Projects Office needs to see private industry commit first. No private partners … no national interest designation. And here is the catch. The developers want to see transmission infrastructure before they invest. Ottawa wants to see developers before it invests. Everybody is waiting for everybody else. Still … Houston is not worried. He says the response from developers has been … through the roof. French firm Q Energy has already applied to pre-qualify. And Natural Resources Canada just put up nearly five million dollars for a feasibility study. Houston says the wind is there. It blows … a lot. The only question is where the power goes. Now … across the Atlantic. In England … a developer is learning that sometimes bigger is not better. Calderdale Energy Park wanted to build sixty-five turbines on Walshaw Moor near Hebden Bridge in West Yorkshire. That would have made it the largest onshore wind farm in England. Last April they cut it to forty-one. Now … thirty-four. That would match the current largest site at Keadby in Lincolnshire. Campaigners say it will still damage the peat bogs and threaten ground-nesting birds. A local parish council survey found ninety-three percent of residents opposed. The developer says it could power a quarter million homes. That application goes to the Planning Inspectorate in November. Meanwhile … in Hamburg, Germany … Blue Elephant Energy is doing some shopping. The company just acquired a three hundred eighty-one megawatt wind portfolio from Wind-Projekt. That is thirty-seven operating wind farms in northern Germany. Two hundred sixty megawatts already feeding the grid. Another forty-six megawatts under construction … coming online this year. And seventy-five more megawatts in the pipeline for twenty twenty-seven. This deal will triple their German wind capacity … from one hundred seventy-three to five hundred thirty-three megawatts. It still needs approval from the German Federal Cartel Office. Now … to India. The Adani Group is about to build the longest onshore wind turbine blade in the country. Ninety-one-point-two meters. That is the length of a football field. Those blades will create a rotor diameter of one hundred eighty-five meters. Each rotation sweeps an area larger than three football fields combined. The factory is at Mundra in the state of Gujarat. Current capacity … two-point-two-five gigawatts per year. They plan to double that to five … and eventually reach ten. India added six-point-three gigawatts of wind last year alone. That was an eighty-five percent jump over the year before. And finally … back home in the American heartland. Rivian … the electric vehicle maker … just signed a power purchase agreement with Apex Clean Energy. Fifty megawatts from the proposed Goose Creek wind farm in Piatt County, Illinois. That wind farm sits within an hour of Rivian’s flagship plant in Normal, Illinois. With this deal … Rivian could power up to seventy-five percent of its factory with carbon-free energy. An electric truck company … powered by wind. So let us step back. Nova Scotia dreams of sixty gigawatts off its coast. An English moor fights over thirty-four turbines. A German company triples its wind portfolio overnight. India builds blades as long as football fields. And an American truck maker turns to the prairie wind to build its future. From the North Atlantic to the plains of Illinois … from the moors of Yorkshire to the coast of Gujarat … the wind keeps blowing. And people … keep building. And that is the state of the wind industry for the first of March twenty twenty-six. Join us for the Uptime Wind Energy podcast tomorrow.

Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. — Ephesians 4:3 Years ago, when we served a church in the community of Terrace Bay, Ontario, we were far away (17 hours by car) from our extended family. If we wanted to get home quicker (14 hours), we could cross the Mackinac Bridge, which is five miles (8 km) long. When we visited Nova Scotia a few summers ago, we encountered a different kind of bridge. It was the connector at Little Narrows. Actually, it wasn't a bridge but a ferryboat. The crossing is only 150 meters, but it is also part of the highway. I mention these connectors because they are a part of how life unfolds. We don't all have the same journey, but we all have the ability to be a “bridge” that brings people together with the story of the good news of God's kingdom. One of my favorite sayings is this: “You need to build a bridge so that Jesus can walk from your heart to someone else's heart.” We are the connectors, the people of peace that Jesus wants to use. He showed us how to make connections to others, and then he said, “Do the same.” It requires effort and commitment—much like that of the engineers who have colossal bridges and powerful boats. What are you building to help make connections so that people can meet Jesus? Dear Lord, guide us to become the bridges and other connectors that help people to meet you. Help us to build with unity and purpose, secured by the presence of your Holy Spirit. Amen.

Cheri Carandanis, an abstract painter and former Air Force critical care nurse, shared her journey from pre-med studies to nursing, driven by her desire to balance career and family. She transitioned to the military, specializing in ICU and CCAT teams, and served in Afghanistan post-9/11. After separating from the military, she pursued hospice nursing and earned a master's degree in nursing. In 2019, she suffered two brain injuries, leading to cognitive and vestibular issues, forcing her to retire her nursing license. Through functional neurology and alternative therapies, she recovered significantly, emphasizing the importance of creativity and mindfulness in healing. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/cheri-carandanis  Highlights from today's episode include:  When I paint, I don't have a brain injury." – Abstract art and flow state became a powerful part of her neurological and emotional healing after two brain injuries. "If you've seen one healing, you've seen one healing." – Every healing journey is unique, and creativity, intuition, and somatic work can open paths that conventional medicine alone often can't. "Nothing's really broken; it's just not communicating how it should." – The body often needs a reset, not a label, and approaches like Bowen and other body-centered work help "reboot" the nervous system so healing can happen.   ABOUT CHERI CARANDANIS: Cheri Carandanis is an abstract painter, mixed media artist, and former Air Force Critical Care nurse who knows a thing or two about surviving what she never saw coming. After a traumatic brain injury ended her 25-year nursing career, she turned to art…not as a hobby, but as a lifeline. Now based in Portland, Oregon, Cheri creates raw, emotionally layered work that invites connection and contemplation. Her paintings don't try to explain everything—instead, they hold space for what's been broken, unraveled, and rebuilt. Through texture, color, and bold mark-making, she explores themes of healing, resilience, and the beauty that often shows up after the fall. Her story is one of reinvention, grit, and choosing creativity when everything else falls away. Core purpose/passion: My core purpose is to create space for truth, the kind that lives in the body, not just the story. I'm passionate about art as a place where people can slow down, feel what they've been avoiding, and come back to themselves without being fixed or explained. I care about honest healing, not performative healing, and about beauty that holds weight, not escape. My work invites presence, courage, and staying with what's real.

What would you fight for if you were free but still not equal? In 1777, brothers William and Benjamin Frank answered that question by enlisting in the Second Rhode Island Regiment of the Continental Army. Freeborn men of color, they gambled that military service would earn them what freedom alone had not: equality, land, and a better future. Historian Shirley Green, author of Revolutionary Blacks: Freeborn Men of Color, Soldiers of Independence, joins us to tell their story. Drawing on genealogical research rooted in her own family history, Green reveals what daily life looked like for free Black families in Revolutionary Rhode Island, how the Frank Brothers fought at the Battles of Red Bank, Monmouth, and Rhode Island, and how the Revolution ultimately divided them—one brother serving through Yorktown, the other crossing to the British side and resettling in Nova Scotia as a Black Loyalist. Their story is a window into the full range of Black experiences during the Revolution, and a reminder that for men like William and Benjamin Frank, choosing a side was never simple. It was a calculated gamble, shaped by promises made—and promises broken.

I am so thrilled to share my 100th episode. To celebrate, I speak with curator Sarah Greenough about my all-time favorite photographer, Robert Frank. Sarah had the privilege of working with Robert when the National Gallery of Art acquired his archive from "The Americans." Such a treat to talk all about my photo hero with someone who knew him and his work so well.

This week let’s learn about some blue frogs! Further reading: Scientists make chance discovery of rare blue skin mutation in Kimberley magnificent tree frog White's True-Blue Green Tree Frog Show transcript: Welcome to Strange Animals Podcast. I'm your host, Kate Shaw. When most of us draw a frog, we reach for the green markers, because most frogs are green. That's true of the magnificent tree frog, also called the splendid tree frog, which is fairly common in the Kimberley region of western Australia. It grows just over 4 inches long, snout to vent, or about 10 and a half cm, and lives in rocky areas. It spends the day hiding in rock crevices, holes in trees, or sometimes in people's houses, and it comes out at night to hunt for insects and other small invertebrates. From the name, you might imagine that this is an especially pretty frog, and it is. It's mostly bright green on top and yellow to white underneath, and it has tiny yellow spots on its head and back. It looks like it has an olive green cap on its head, but that's actually a large parotoid gland, a skin gland common in frogs and toads that secretes neurotoxins. Most frogs don't have a parotoid gland at all, and in ones that do you typically will barely notice it, but the magnificent tree frog's covers the entire top of its head almost to its nostrils and down onto its back. The skin color of a frog depends on its chemical makeup. Melanophores make black and brown colors, xanthophores make yellow. Blue is different, since it's not a color that's actually found in skin pigments. Instead, a green frog's skin contains iridophores that reflect blue light waves, the same way a bird's feathers show blue. The combination of yellow and blue makes green, and the addition of melanophore pigments determine how dark or bright the green is. In July of 2024, two land managers were working in the Charnley River-Artesian Range Wildlife Sanctuary. They were in a workshop when one of them noticed a magnificent tree frog sitting on a bench, not that unusual of an occurrence–except that this frog wasn't green. It was blue! The condition is called axanthism, where the yellow pigments in the frog's skin don't show up the way they should. Most of them time axanthism in frogs means the animal has little patches of blue or bluish coloration, but this specific frog was blue just about everywhere it should have been green. Its parotoid gland was still olive green and it had yellow on its feet, but mainly it was a very attractive dark blue. The land managers were stunned. They took photos and sent them to pretty much everyone, and frog experts and ecologists hurried to examine the blue frog. But they decided not to keep the frog in captivity. It was released back into the wild to live out its blue froggy life normally. Some frogs are naturally blue, like some poison dart frogs of South America. The blue poison dart frog's legs are dark blue and its body a lighter blue with black spots. It grows less than two inches long, or about 4.5 cm. Poison dart frogs collect toxins in their bodies from some of the toxic insects they eat, and the bright coloration signals to predators that this frog will make you really sick if you eat it. Axanthism is rare but not all that uncommon in frogs. About the same time that the blue magnificent tree frog was hopping into the workshop in Australia, two little girls playing around a pond in Nova Scotia, Canada found a teal-blue frog. Ironically, the frog is actually called the green frog and it's ordinarily a dark olive-green all over. The girls named the frog Bluey and released it back into the pond. Another blue green frog was found in New Hampshire, in the United States, also in July 2024. In June 2024 a forest ranger spotted a northern leopard frog in Washington state that had splotches of light blue on its head and back. In May of 2024 a light blue Japanese tree frog was found by a couple on a walk. The Australian green tree frog is closely related to the magnificent tree frog, although it doesn't have a parotoid gland hat. It's mostly green with a white or pale gray belly. It's sometimes called the dumpy tree frog because it's a little chonk. Actually, for a frog it's a pretty big chonk, up to 4 and a half inches long, or over 11 cm. It's also sometimes called White's tree frog after John White, who described it in 1790. It was the first Australian frog that was ever scientifically described. But that leads us to a little mystery. John White named the frog Rana caerulea. Its current scientific name is Ranoidea caerulea. But “caerulea” refers to the color blue, not green, as in cerulean blue. John White collected the frog in 1788, preserved it in alcohol, and finally described it two years later. He refers to it in his writing as a blue frog and the illustration accompanying it shows frogs that are actually blue. But this frog is supposed to be green! The main suggestion for why a famously green frog was initially described as blue is that the alcohol that White used to preserve the frog's body actually destroyed the yellow pigment in its skin. This is something that does sometimes happen with frog specimens in museums. But it's also possible that White ended up with a blue specimen, much like the blue magnificent tree frog we talked about earlier. He wouldn't have known that the blue frog had a rare color mutation. That would explain why he referred to the frog as blue and gave it a name that means blue. That might also explain why White described the Australian green tree frog first. Maybe he just thought it was pretty. Everyone likes the color blue. Thanks for your support, and thanks for listening! I'm at Dragon Con this weekend, where who knows, I might actually see a blue frog. Anything is possible at Dragon Con.

What if death isn't a clean switch—off, then on—but something messier? In this episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro dig into a deeply unsettling early-20th-century medical case involving a European woman who was pronounced dead… and then woke up during her own autopsy. Not metaphorically. Not dramatically. Literally on the table. Declared clinically dead by the standards of the time, her body was wheeled from the ward, stripped, positioned, and cut open by doctors who had no reason to believe anyone was listening. But when she revived, she didn't describe darkness, tunnels, or visions of light. Instead, she calmly and accurately recounted what the doctors had done and said after she was declared dead—details she could not have seen, overheard, or reasonably guessed. The case appeared quietly in early medical journals, written in careful, restrained language, and then largely disappeared from discussion. Long before near-death experiences entered popular culture, this account suggested something far more uncomfortable: that awareness may linger longer than we think, and that consciousness doesn't always follow the tidy rules we assign to it. From there, the conversation widens into the blurry boundaries of clinical death, historical accounts of awareness during catastrophic injury, and why medicine—especially in its early modern years—may have preferred to quietly file away cases that didn't fit the model. Then, because this is The Box of Oddities, things take a turn. The episode also explores unlucky days across cultures—Friday the 13th, Tuesday the 13th, Friday the 17th, and other calendar dates humans have decided are cursed—and why we seem so determined to assign meaning to randomness. And finally, the story of Vincent Coleman and the Halifax Explosion: a railway dispatcher who knowingly stayed at his post to send a final warning that saved hundreds of lives, moments before one of the largest non-nuclear explosions in human history leveled much of Halifax, Nova Scotia. It's an episode about presence where none was expected, warnings sent too late—or just in time—and the uncomfortable possibility that the line between being here and being gone isn't as sharp as we'd like to believe.
