In 1818, a curious root arrived in a small English village, tucked—seemingly by accident—in a packing case mailed from Brazil. The amateur botanist who cultivated it soon realized that he had something remarkable on his hands: an exceptionally rare orchid never before seen on British shores. It arrived just as “orchid mania” was sweeping across Europe and North America, driving a vast plant trade that catered to wealthy private patrons as well as the fast-growing middle classes eager to display exotic flowers at home. Dubbed Cattleya labiata, the striking purple-and-crimson bloom quickly became one of the most coveted flowers on both continents. As tales of the flower's beauty spread through scientific journals and the popular press, orchid dealers and enthusiasts initiated a massive search to recover it in its natural habitat. In The Lost Orchid: A Story of Victorian Plunder and Obsession (Harvard University Press, 2025) Dr. Sarah Bilston illuminates the story of this international quest, introducing the collectors and nurserymen who funded expeditions, the working-class plant hunters who set out to find the flower, the South American laborers and specialists with whom they contracted, the botanists who used the latest science to study orchids in all their varieties, and the writers and artists who established the near-mythic status of the “lost orchid.” The dark side of this global frenzy was the social and environmental harm it wrought, damaging fragile ecologies on which both humans and plants depended. Following the human ambitions and dramas that drove an international obsession, The Lost Orchid is a story of consumer desire, scientific curiosity, and the devastating power of colonial overreach. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

#232 Reed Hastings: The Netflix Playbook for Culture, Judgment, and Scale

How do you build a high-performance culture without turning your company into the Hunger Games? Reed Hastings, co-founder and former CEO of Netflix, shares lessons from a career spent rewriting the rules—from severance as a management tool to “big-hearted champions who pick up the trash.” In this episode, he reveals how Netflix scaled trust, made bold bets before the data was in, and kept its edge by treating employees like adults—not assets. You'll hear how Hastings evaluates talent beyond the interview, the reason he avoids performance improvement plans, and what most leaders misunderstand about judgment, feedback, and innovation.  You'll also hear why he placed a $100 million bet on House of Cards with no pilot, how Drive to Survive changed an entire sport, and why Squid Game caught even Netflix by surprise.  Now focused on a new chapter—owning a ski mountain, reshaping education through AI tutors, and supporting charter schools—Hastings is still doing what he does best: building systems that scale culture, not just product.  If you care about performance without politics—or culture without the clichés—this is a blueprint from one of the clearest thinkers in modern business.  Approximate timestamps: Subject to variation due to dynamically inserted ads: (3:09) Powder Mountain, Skiing Industry, & Buying a Mountain (6:36) Setting Culture in an Organization (9:21) Hiring Process and Evaluating Candidates (14:24) Netflix's 2009 Slide Deck Release (16:26) Talent Density and Performance Culture (17:59) Loyalty and Team Building (19:56) Severance Packages (22:17) Process Vs.

But with statins now the most prescribed drugs on the planet, why is heart disease still the world's #1 killer? And why are we not talking about the bigger picture? In this hard-hitting episode, we're joined by Dr. Ross Walker, one of Australia's leading voices in preventive cardiology, to challenge the mainstream narrative—and ask the questions that could save lives. We explore: The truth behind cholesterol—what it is, what it isn't, and why one number shouldn't define your risk. Statins: miracle drug or misunderstood medicine? Who really benefits, and at what cost? The role of genetics—including the common but underdiagnosed condition, Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH). Visit the DNA Screen Project to learn more: https://dnascreen.monash.edu/ Why prevention struggles to compete with Big Pharma—and what needs to change. The 30-Day Heart Health Plan every listener should hear, with Dr. Walker's actionable advice on food, movement, stress, and testing. This episode is not anti-medication—it's pro-information. Because your heart health deserves more than a prescription.

June 4, 1941. Reinhard Heydrich transmits a message to all regional governors in the Third Reich: prepare for “action against occult teachings.” Heydrich is carrying out the orders of Adolf Hitler, who is furious at his Deputy Führer, Rudolf Hess. Inspired by a horoscope reading, Hess decided to fly a secret mission to Great Britain and sue for peace. But Hess crash-lands in Scotland—the plan doesn't pan out—and his failure becomes an international embarrassment. So in retaliation, Hitler cracks down on mysticism throughout Germany. Magicians, spiritualists, and faith healers are arrested, their homes get searched, and their books are confiscated.  And yet, the “Hess Action” only lasts a few weeks. Because Hitler and many of the top Nazi leaders are also obsessed with the occult, the supernatural, and the fringes of science. How does Nazi Germany embrace the metaphyiscal, mysticism, and mythology? And how do they use these ideas to strengthen their fascist regime? This episode features a conversation with Eric Kurlander, William R. Kenan Jr. Professor of History at Stetson University and author of Hitler's Monsters: A Supernatural History of the Third Reich.

In this episode, we dive into: Brandon's unshakable obsession with boutique hotels (he used to play hotel as a kid — not kidding) How a background in PR shaped his approach to storytelling, strategy, and aesthetic curation The origin story behind Hotels Above Par — and how a single Instagram caption became the launchpad for a globally respected travel media platform Why partnering with tourism boards (not just hotels) is a win-win-win How paid partnerships, affiliate bookings, and Substack newsletters drive real revenue (this isn't just a vibes operation) Why he's bullish on newsletters, hospitality humans, and high-touch check-ins — even as AI eats media We also unpack Brandon's POV on: What most independent hotels are still getting wrong on Instagram Why newsletters are having a renaissance moment (and how hoteliers should use them) How journalists are evolving into modern creators (and what makes them more trustworthy than traditional influencers) What makes a travel giveaway actually work — and why you're probably doing it wrong This one is for the independent hoteliers fighting the good fight, the brand builders playing the long game, and the travelers who crave places with soul.

In this episode, Shanti prepares for a busy season with The Sable Collective, while Antoinette has the most biracial weekend ever. For politics, we focus on the complexities of political decisions and their effect on healthcare, particularly regarding a case in Georgia involving a brain-dead pregnant woman. For pop culture, we talk about the sensationalism of "fake journalism" in the Diddy case, and the impact of media on public perception of victims. Antoinette explains the racial undertones and stereotypes in sports rivalries, particularly in the WNBA between Angela Reese and Caitlin Clark. This is highlighted by the recent public beef between RGIII and Ryan Clark.

This week, Len Testa and Jim Hill reveal how Disney's “temporary” structures - from party tents to prefab domes - have a habit of overstaying their welcome. What starts as a stopgap often becomes a staple, and nowhere is that more obvious than in the strange evolution from Mickey's Birthdayland to Toontown. Mickey's Birthdayland - The 18-month quick fix that morphed into a 20-year land. Festival of the Lion King - The show that squatted in a space meant for dragons... and thrived. Magic Kingdom Strategy - How early entry and Lightning Lane stacking can knock out every headliner by noon. Disney's Indoor Parks - From DisneyQuest to Abu Dhabi, a look at the past and future of enclosed theme parks. It's a celebration of Disney's most beloved “temporary” projects - and the ones that just refused to leave.
