Join us as we go back to the 80s for the 1987 comedy classic Summer School! What better way to end summer and kick off the school year than this movie we loved. Lazy high school gym teacher Freddy Shoop (Mark Harmon) must cancel a dream Hawaiian vacation to teach a remedial English class of misfit students. Blackmailed by a strict vice-principal, Shoop uses unconventional teaching methods and bribery to connect with the kids. See the original podcast duo before there were podcasts Chainsaw and Dave. A pre look who's talking Kirstie Alley. Made by the great Carl Reiner of The Jerk fame but to me he played Saul in the Oceans movies. We even get Kalabar in this! So much fun give us a listen!

Today marks episode 2000 of How to Protect the Ocean, and Andrew is taking a break from the usual format to look back at how this show came to be. From an accidental start in 2010 to a name change driven by search engine optimization, to over 3 million downloads across 11 years, this episode traces the full arc of the podcast's history. Andrew also opens up about how podcasting reshaped his career. What started as a side project outside of work hours led to TV documentary appearances, podcast hosting offers including a multi-year run on the Toronto Zoo podcast, and eventually the job offer that became his dream role. Along the way, he helped launch an estimated 20 to 25 other podcasts, including Beyond Jaws, the shark science show he co-hosts with Dr. David Ebert. The biggest news of the episode is the announcement that How to Protect the Ocean is now officially licensed to Pisces Oceans, the same organization where Andrew now works as their ocean communications manager. He explains why this partnership matters, what it means for the quality of future episodes, and how it sets up a bigger ocean impact going forward, including the launch of new shows across the Pisces podcast network. Takeaways: How to Protect the Ocean began as Speak Up for Blue in 2010, later became Speak Up for the Ocean Blue for SEO reasons, before settling on its current name The show has generated an estimated 3 million downloads over 11 years of consistent publishing Andrew has helped launch an estimated 20 to 25 podcasts, including Beyond Jaws with Dr. David Ebert Podcasting led to TV documentary appearances, podcast hosting offers, and ultimately Andrew's current role at Pisces Oceans How to Protect the Ocean is now officially licensed to Pisces Oceans, with the goal of improving show quality and increasing ocean impact The Pisces network is expanding to include Ocean Leaders podcast and Polar Bears and Flip Flops with Angelo Villagomez [VERIFY] Ocean Decoded Live continues weekdays at 4 pm Eastern on YouTube Support Independent Podcasts: https://www.speakupforblue.com/patreon Need help with your ocean non-profit, company, or project?

Your environment becomes biological information.The light entering your eyes…the noise reaching your ears…the messages appearing on your phone…the emotional energy in the room…the people sitting beside you…the amount of safety or uncertainty you feel…Your nervous system is always receiving information.Always interpreting.Always asking:“Am I safe here?”“Do I need to be alert?”“Can I recover?”“Is it time to perform?”“Is it safe to let my guard down?”Your nervous system does not exist in isolation.Your nervous system lives somewhere.And where it lives matters.Resources:Brain.fm App (First month Free, then 20% off subscription)Discount Code: coachdamiensdLinks:IG:@coachdamien_sd@damienrayevans@livinthedream_podcast YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCS6VuPgtVsdBpDj5oN3YQTgFB:https://www.facebook.com/coachdamienSD/
Today we're setting sail with Explora Journeys, the ultra-luxury ocean brand built to feel less like a cruise ship and more like a boutique European resort that just happens to float. Joining me is Chris Austin, President of North America for Explora Journeys, who's been with the brand since before a single ship existed and has watched the vision go from blank pages to a fleet at sea. We talk about everything from what changed in the ships' design, to the off the beaten path ports, to the corners of the ship guests stumble onto and can't stop talking about. Maybe pour yourself a glass of rose, settle in, and enjoy this episode about slowing down, and what the ocean teaches us about time. Looking to book a luxury hotel?

João Macedo is a Portuguese big wave surfing pioneer and the Founder of Hope Zones Foundation. João reflects on growing up in Portugal's first generation of competitive surfers, learning invaluable lessons in Hawaii and witnessing the evolution of big wave surfing long before Nazaré became a global phenomenon. He also shares stories of working alongside surfing legends, coaching the next generation of Portuguese surfers and the mindset required to push through fear in extreme conditions. Today, João has channelled that same passion into Hope Zones, a non-profit dedicated to ocean regeneration through innovative seaweed farming and community-led conservation. We dive into why protecting our oceans requires working with local communities, how surfers can become environmental leaders, and why the next great adventure isn't riding bigger waves, it's helping restore the seas for future generations.You can follow what João is up to on Instagram @officialjoaomacedo and be sure to check out Hope Zones to get involved.

This week on the How to Protect the Ocean podcast, Andrew kicks off a science communication series exploring how ocean advocates can spread awareness across every major content format. Today's episode digs into short-form video: TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts, and what it actually takes to make original content work when you're used to talking for an hour, not ninety seconds. Andrew is candid about his own struggle with the format, since most of his short-form output today is repurposed podcast clips rather than content built for the platform from the ground up. The conversation covers what separates a scroll-stopping short from one that gets skipped: a hook in the first one to three seconds, one idea per video, native casual style over polished production, readable captions, and consistency over perfection. Andrew points to Christian Parton's Shark Bites and KPassionate as creators doing this well across YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and Twitch, and explains how the algorithm on platforms like TikTok now prioritizes watch time and virality over follower count, meaning a single video from a small account can outperform everything else in a creator's catalog. The episode closes with a candid look at monetization: what TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram Reels actually pay per view [VERIFY figures before publishing], why the real money in short-form tends to come from brand sponsorships, affiliate codes, and funneling viewers to a long-form platform or Patreon-style support, and why short-form works best as an entry point rather than a destination. This is the first episode in a week-long arc on science communication formats, building toward Friday's interview with Amy Weldon of Blue Collar White Coat. Takeaways Short-form content needs a hook in the first one to three seconds or the algorithm moves on Stick to one idea per video, delivered in one to three minutes Native, casual, direct-to-camera style tends to outperform overly produced content Captions matter because most viewers watch with the sound off The algorithm rewards watch time and virality over follower count, so small accounts can go viral Consistency over perfection is what builds a following over time Short-form monetization pay rates are modest [VERIFY]; real income tends to come from sponsorships, affiliates, and funneling to long-form or Patreon-style support Short-form is best used as an entry point into a creator's larger body of work, not the destination Support Independent Podcasts: https://www.speakupforblue.com/patreon Need help with your ocean non-profit, company, or project?

In this episode, we dug into a rough stretch for Bitcoin infrastructure and security, starting with the Coldcard entropy exploit, the messy hotfix fallout, and related concerns around BTC Pay Server and Lightning vulnerabilities. From there, we explored how AI-assisted security research is rapidly changing the landscape: open-weight frontier models and tools like Ghidra and Wireshark are making it dramatically easier to inspect code, reverse engineer binaries, and uncover weaknesses in both open and closed-source Bitcoin software. We talked through the tradeoffs between closed proprietary AI providers and more permissive open-weight models, the hardware and cost constraints of running these systems, and why this new era of AI-driven auditing is likely to expose a lot of long-hidden assumptions across the Bitcoin stack.We also spent a lot of time on Bitcoin mining: how AI-based reverse engineering is being applied to proprietary mining firmware, what that could reveal about dev fees, remote controls, and operational risk, and why open-source mining infrastructure matters more than ever. We covered the BIP 110/Ocean controversy, miner and node power dynamics, and the urgent need for better decentralized pooling options and more home miners running their own nodes. We wrapped with updates from the 256 Foundation ecosystem, including progress on Bitaxe Proto and Bonanza support, Magina ports, ideas for cheaper home mining nodes, and upcoming hands-on workshops and events for builders who want to get deeper into mining and open-source infrastructure.

In this August 10, 2026 episode of Colonize the Ocean, Brendon Traxler kicks off a mini-series on ambitious underwater habitats and resorts that never made it.He dives into the biggest name of them all: Poseidon Undersea Resorts, the project led by Bruce Jones of U.S. Submarines. The domain dates back to 2003 (over 20 years old), and the idea itself is even older—Jones had been floating concepts for an underwater habitat years earlier.The website is still online and looks solid, but the project went dead in the water. Last social media activity was in 2014, when they claimed they were about 36 months away (pointing to a 2016 opening). Nothing ever happened. Jones later shifted focus more toward private submarines.Brendon believes it was a genuine effort—not just a PR stunt. The designs were stunning and could have delivered a strong return, but the price tag (likely around half a billion dollars) was massive. Like so many other underwater projects, it simply never materialized.He asks listeners: Do you remember Poseidon? Did you ever want to stay there?

Stories, scars and memories carried by the sea.
The oceans provide the “fuel” for almost all the thunderstorms on Earth: water that evaporates from the ocean surface. But the oceans generally don't provide the “trigger” for the big storms. As one indication of the difference, about 90 percent of all lightning happens over land. A thunderstorm forms when warm, humid air rises high into the atmosphere and condenses to make clouds. The humidity comes from the oceans. Storms in the Great Plains, for example, are fed by water vapor from the Gulf of Mexico. And the summer monsoon in the Southwest is fed by the Gulf of California. But the storms need a strong source of heat to get the water vapor to rise high enough to form clouds. During the warm portion of the year, the land gets hotter than the oceans. There's also a bigger contrast on land—some areas heat up more quickly, so they're more likely to start building the clouds. Terrain also plays an important role—mountains can push air upward. In contrast, the oceans are more stable, so there's not much to trigger big storms. Oceans do outperform the land in one way, though—they produce more “superbolts” of lightning. Such bolts can be a thousand times more powerful than a typical discharge. That appears to be because the salt content makes ocean water a better conductor of electricity than soil or fresh water.

ਸੋਰਠਿ ਮਹਲਾ ੯ ॥ ਮਨ ਰੇ ਪ੍ਰਭ ਕੀ ਸਰਨਿ ਬਿਚਾਰੋ ॥ ਜਿਹ ਸਿਮਰਤ ਗਨਕਾ ਸੀ ਉਧਰੀ ਤਾ ਕੋ ਜਸੁ ਉਰ ਧਾਰੋ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ ਅਟਲ ਭਇਓ ਧ੍ਰੂਅ ਜਾ ਕੈ ਸਿਮਰਨਿ ਅਰੁ ਨਿਰਭੈ ਪਦੁ ਪਾਇਆ ॥ ਦੁਖ ਹਰਤਾ ਇਹ ਬਿਧਿ ਕੋ ਸੁਆਮੀ ਤੈ ਕਾਹੇ ਬਿਸਰਾਇਆ ॥੧॥ ਜਬ ਹੀ ਸਰਨਿ ਗਹੀ ਕਿਰਪਾ ਨਿਧਿ ਗਜ ਗਰਾਹ ਤੇ ਛੂਟਾ ॥ ਮਹਮਾ ਨਾਮ ਕਹਾ ਲਉ ਬਰਨਉ ਰਾਮ ਕਹਤ ਬੰਧਨ ਤਿਹ ਤੂਟਾ ॥੨॥ ਅਜਾਮਲੁ ਪਾਪੀ ਜਗੁ ਜਾਨੇ ਨਿਮਖ ਮਾਹਿ ਨਿਸਤਾਰਾ ॥ ਨਾਨਕ ਕਹਤ ਚੇਤ ਚਿੰਤਾਮਨਿ ਤੈ ਭੀ ਉਤਰਹਿ ਪਾਰਾ ॥੩॥੪॥This hymn composed by Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib (in Raag Sorath) emphasizes the transformative power of divine remembrance (Naam Simran) and surrendering to God's sanctuary.Key Themes & SummaryUniversal Redemption Through Divine Grace: The Guru highlights that God's grace is available to anyone who sincerely surrenders, regardless of their past deeds or social status.Historical References (Gurbani Allusions): The hymn cites four classic examples of figures saved by divine intervention and remembrance:Ganika: A courtezan who achieved spiritual liberation by remembering God.Dhruva: The young devotee who earned eternal spiritual steadfastness and fearlessness.Gaj (The Elephant): Rescued instantly from the clutches of the crocodile the moment he called upon the Ocean of Mercy.Ajamal: A notoriously sinful person who was redeemed in an instant through divine remembrance.Breaking the Bonds of Maya: Remembering God acts like the Chintamani (a wish-fulfilling jewel), breaking all worldly fetters and helping the seeker cross the terrifying world-ocean.Core MessageDo not forget the Lord who removes suffering. If notorious sinners and creatures in extreme distress were liberated instantly upon taking shelter in God, you too can attain spiritual freedom by keeping divine praise in your heart.

This week on Bad Dads Film Review, we complete our accidental trilogy of “third things.” After covering Close Encounters of the Third Kind on the midweek show, we turn to Army of Darkness, Sam Raimi's third Evil Dead film, and use that as an excuse to dig into the noble, messy and often suspicious art of the threequel.There is no formal intro this week — time has apparently been attacked by Deadites — so we open with a catch-up on what everyone has been watching. Reegs has been busy with Backrooms, Obsession, Disclosure Day and Apple TV's Cape Fear, which gets a recommendation so long as you know going in that it is extremely ridiculous. Sidey has finally finished The Pit, finding the second season weaker than the first but still worth the time, and has also watched Backrooms and started The Mandalorian. Dan has finished series five of Slow Horses, which he continues to push as an absolute treat, and has also seen The Odyssey at the cinema, where three hours apparently went by surprisingly quickly.That leads us into the usual wandering preamble: 4DX screenings with shaking seats, water and wind; panoramic side-screen cinema formats; the Sphere in Vegas; Sidey somehow still not having made it to IMAX; Spider-Man: Brand New Day and big cinema opening weekends; Tom Holland and Jon Bernthal on Hot Ones; and the general horror of people getting overconfident with hot sauce before reality arrives in liquid form.The Top 5 this week is third films in a franchise, which gives us one of those lists where genuinely great films sit shoulder to shoulder with absolute nonsense. Dan opens strongly with The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, a film that swept the Oscars so hard it practically brought its own broom. Sidey goes for Toy Story 3, remembering Lotso, Spanish Buzz, the daycare escape, the furnace sequence and the emotional finality of Andy giving up his toys. Reegs makes a spirited defence of The Matrix Revolutions, arguing that its uneasy truce ending and refusal to give everyone a simple victory has aged better than its reputation suggests.From there, we move through Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, with Sean Connery, River Phoenix and the Holy Grail; The Bourne Ultimatum, which Sidey remembers as peak Jason Bourne closure and kinetic shaky-cam action; Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, praised by Reegs for Rocket's unexpectedly emotional backstory; The Naked Gun 33⅓: The Final Insult, because Frank Drebin remains Frank Drebin; and Die Hard with a Vengeance, which gives Sidey an excuse to talk about Zeus, Simon Says, Jeremy Irons and New York puzzle chaos.There are plenty of other third-film detours too, including RoboCop 3, Austin Powers in Goldmember, The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, Alien 3, John Wick: Chapter 3 — Parabellum, Back to the Future Part III, Halloween III: Season of the Witch, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, the Cornetto trilogy, Avengers: Infinity War, Blade: Trinity, Karate Kid Part III and Ocean's 13. Sidey bends the rules by choosing the third episode of Twin Peaks, “Zen, or the Skill to Catch a Killer,” while Dan lands on Before Midnight, the third film in Richard Linklater's Before trilogy.Eventually, we arrive in 1300 AD for Army of Darkness itself. Dan has not seen it, but has correctly gathered that this is not really the same kind of horror film as The Evil Dead. Reegs, who has seen it many times, explains the tonal journey of the series: the first film as bleak, grimy horror; Evil Dead II as a genuine horror-comedy masterpiece; and Army of Darkness as the point where Ash becomes the full cartoon version of himself — part action hero, part idiot, part Bruce Campbell chin-delivery system.We talk about Sam Raimi's direction, Bill Pope's cinematography before The Matrix, Danny Elfman's contribution to the score, and the way Raimi's visual energy clearly echoes forward into later filmmakers such as Edgar Wright. The plot is gloriously simple and gloriously stupid: Ash is dragged through time after Evil Dead II, lands in the middle of a medieval conflict between Lord Arthur and Henry the Red, gets thrown into a pit, fights Deadites, reclaims his chainsaw hand, introduces everyone to the boomstick, and immediately becomes insufferable once the locals start treating him as their prophesied saviour.The film then sends Ash off to retrieve the Necronomicon, with one very clear instruction: say the words “Klaatu barada nikto” before taking the book. Naturally, Ash being Ash, he half-remembers, fudges it and unleashes the titular army of darkness. Along the way we get the windmill sequence, tiny mirror Ashes, Three Stooges slapstick, bad Ash splitting out of good Ash, Sheila falling for exactly the worst man available, and a castle siege finale full of skeletons, homemade weapons, a modified car and Ray Harryhausen-style chaos.We also get into the two endings: the darker UK/director's cut version, where Ash takes too many drops and wakes up in a ruined future, and the more crowd-pleasing US S-Mart ending, where he returns to work, tells the story and gets one last heroic Deadite showdown. Reegs prefers the bleaker ending because it feels funnier and more in keeping with Ash's ability to mess up almost everything.The verdict is affectionate, even if slightly qualified. Reegs still thinks Evil Dead II is the one to watch if you only watch one Evil Dead film, and he does not think Army of Darkness is great in quite the same way. But it is funny, quotable, inventive and packed with cult moments: the boomstick, S-Mart, “primitive screwheads,” bad magic words, skeleton armies and Bruce Campbell at maximum Ash. Sidey thinks Dan would probably enjoy it, describing it as something like The Princess Bride with Ray Harryhausen effects and comedy horror nonsense thrown in.So the final recommendation is simple: if you only watch one, Reegs says watch Evil Dead II. If you ask Sidey, just watch them all.You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us. We'll read out any texts we receive on the show.

The Story of Jesse Alvare: History of FWA, South Florida's 80s Hardcore Punk Scene, and MoreIn this episode, we're joined by Jesse Alvare, founder and longtime driving force behind South Florida hardcore punk band FWA, to explore the band's history and its place in the South Florida punk and hardcore scene. Jesse reflects on growing up in Pasadena, California, moving to South Florida in 1979, discovering punk rock through bands like the Ramones, and becoming part of a growing underground community built through DIY shows, warehouse events, backyard parties, and more.The conversation explores the early South Florida punk and hardcore scene, including important spaces such as Pops, a warehouse near Tamiami Airport, Churchill's, Ocean 71/Flynn's, and the Cameo Theater. Jesse discusses the brotherhood with other South Florida bands from the era, including Indecision, Cultural Brain Rot, The Believers, Powerhouse, Meat Locker, The Roidz, Genitorturers, and others.Jesse shares memories of opening for touring bands like Youth Of Today, 7 Seconds, Agnostic Front, Scream, and The Exploited, along with unforgettable shows featuring Dead Kennedys, SS Decontrol, Kraut, Circle Jerks, Motörhead, Slayer, Overkill, the Ramones, Fishbone, and Wall Of Voodoo. He also reflects on the venues, record stores, flyers, and word of mouth that connected bands and fans before the internet era.The discussion also covers the formation of FWA in the mid-1980s, recording early demos at Third Eye Studios in Miami, releasing vinyl, creating flyers and merchandise, and preserving the band's history through posters, photographs, and memorabilia. Jesse talks about keeping a DIY band active through decades of lineup changes and why FWA continues to perform more than four decades later.Jesse also discusses how punk and hardcore culture has changed over the years, from the DIY flyer era to social media, the rising costs of live music, and the differences between the scene of the 1980s and today. He reflects on the lasting impact of the South Florida punk and hardcore community and the people, venues, and bands that helped build it.
The company DEEP recently launched an underwater habitat called Vanguard off the coast of Florida to facilitate long-term marine research and environmental monitoring. This innovative structure allows a four-person crew to live and work at depths of 56 feet, utilizing a process called saturation to extend dive times significantly. The facility features a living chamber, a dive center with a moon pool, and a dedicated support system to manage waste and safety. Beyond scientific discovery, the habitat serves as a vital training ground for astronauts due to the similarities between isolated aquatic environments and spaceflight. Vanguard represents a primary step toward creating a modular underwater station similar to the International Space Station, aiming for a permanent human presence beneath the sea. This technology minimizes sample degradation and removes the time constraints typically imposed by standard decompression requirements.https://atlantisseacolony.com/#DEEP #Vanguard #UnderwaterHabitat #MarineResearch #EnvironmentalMonitoring #SaturationDiving #MoonPool #AstronautTraining #UnderwaterStation #OceanExploration #Florida #DeepSeaResearch #Aquanauts #ModularHabitat #SeaToSpace
Not every ocean conservation win comes from a nonprofit or a government program. In this episode, Andrew breaks down three for-profit companies that are cleaning up the ocean, funding wildlife research, and paying living wages to the people doing the work. These businesses show that conservation and profit are not opposing goals. They can be the same goal. Andrew covers 4Ocean, whose full-time captains and cleanup crews earn living wages with health insurance and bonuses across Florida, Bali, Haiti, and Guatemala. He covers Ocean Sole, the Kenyan social enterprise that pays local collectors for discarded flip-flops and employs artisans to turn that waste into sculptures sold around the world. And he covers the wildlife tracking bracelet company that lets a purchase fund a satellite tag on a real shark, manatee, or seabird, connecting buyers directly to the research their money supports. This episode is for entrepreneurs, scientists, and conservationists who want their work to have impact without depending entirely on grants or donor cycles. Andrew argues these three companies point to a business model that more of the ocean conservation space should be paying attention to: people, planet, and profit working together instead of one getting sacrificed for the others. Takeaways 4Ocean employs over 200 full-time captains and crew at living wages across Florida, Bali, Haiti, and Guatemala, plus 350+ bracelet artisans in Bali and Guatemala Ocean Sole pays Kenyan collectors for discarded flip-flops and employs local artisans to carve them into sculptures sold worldwide Wildlife tracking bracelets connect a single purchase to funding for a real satellite tag on an animal like a shark, manatee, or penguin All three companies operate as B Corps or B Corp-style social enterprises, combining environmental impact with fair local employment For-profit conservation businesses can offer more consistent funding than grant-dependent nonprofits, since revenue comes from ongoing product sales rather than competitive fundraising cycles Andrew argues the "triple bottom line" of people, planet, and profit should be the standard other conservation-minded entrepreneurs build toward Support Independent Podcasts: https://www.speakupforblue.com/patreon Need help with your ocean non-profit, company, or project?

Welcome back to the Hangar Z Podcast, brought to you by Vertical HeliCASTS and Valor Plus.On today's episode, we're honored to welcome Deputy Jonathan Lazada and Deputy Chase Gomez of the Indian River County Sheriff's Office Aviation Unit. Jonathan and Chase are the recipients of the Airborne Public Safety Association's Aircrew of the Year Award, as well as the FLIR Vision Award in the Life Saving category, recognizing their extraordinary efforts during a search that ultimately saved three lives.What began as the search for a downed aircraft several miles offshore quickly became a race against time. Operating within the limitations of their aircraft and mission equipment, they relied on disciplined Crew Resource Management, sound decision-making, and an unwavering commitment to the mission. Their persistence paid off when they located three survivors floating in the ocean and directed U.S. Coast Guard rescue assets to their position, leading to a successful rescue.In this conversation, we take a deep dive into every aspect of the mission. Jonathan and Chase walk us through the initial response, the challenges of searching over open water, the limitations of their airframe for this type of operation, and the critical decisions they made while balancing mission success with flight safety. We also discuss the importance of effective Crew Resource Management, maintaining situational awareness under pressure, staying determined when the odds seem stacked against you, and how teamwork became the defining factor in a successful outcome.One of the most rewarding moments came after the rescue, when Jonathan and Chase had the opportunity to meet all three survivors back at the hangar—a powerful reminder of why public safety aviation professionals do what they do.This is an incredible story of professionalism, perseverance, and teamwork under the most demanding conditions. We know you're going to enjoy this conversation.Watch the 2026 FLIR Vision Awards | Life Saver Award with Jonathan and Chase at this link.Thank you to our sponsors Precision Aviation Group, Spectrolab and Summit Aviation.

Microbes rarely feature in discussions about climate change, yet they play a central role in regulating greenhouse gases through the Earth's carbon, methane and nitrogen cycles. As the climate changes, understanding these natural processes is becoming increasingly important to develop new approaches to clean energy, agriculture and emissions reduction. This week on Cleaning Up, Bryony Worthington speaks with Professor Emeritus David Kirchman of the University of Delaware, one of the world's leading microbial ecologists and author of 'Microbes: the Unseen Agents of Climate Change.' They explore how microbes drive the carbon, methane and nitrogen cycles, how climate change is reshaping ecosystems from permafrost to coral reefs, and how microbial science could help tackle the climate crisis, from microbial fuel cells and lower-emissions agriculture to biofuels, methane reduction and even emerging forms of carbon removal and geoengineering Topics covered in this episode: The microbes shaping Earth's climate Ocean carbon cycle Methane-eating microbes Arctic warming impacts Coral reefs and climate resilience Low-carbon agriculture Microbes powering climate solutions Climate interventions Leadership Circle: Cleaning Up is proud to be supported by its Leadership Circle.

Stephen Dziedzic of the ABC returns to catch up on a remarkable month in Australian foreign policy. The conversation begins with China's submarine-launched ballistic missile test into the South Pacific. Stephen and Darren ask who Beijing was really signalling, what the test says about China's nuclear deterrent, and why Pacific governments responded much more strongly than they did to China's 2024 launch. They then turn to Australia's rapidly expanding Pacific integration agenda: the Nakamal Agreement with Vanuatu, the new Vuvale Union and Ocean of Peace Alliance with Fiji, and the wider web of Australian agreements across the region. The discussion examines why Fiji and Vanuatu struck such different bargains; whether Australia coerced Vanuatu; the risks of strategic overstretch; and what happens when Canberra eventually has to enforce one of the new agreements' red lines. Darren also offers an alliance-theory puzzle: these treaties appear designed less to deter a clear external threat than to institutionalise alignment and deny rival security access. The episode also covers Taiwan's decision to suspend spot purchases of PNG LNG after Port Moresby moved against Taiwan's representative office; the fragile stabilisation of Australia–China relations and an Australian variation on Kevin Rudd's “managed strategic competition”; and Narendra Modi's visit, including whether India now truly qualifies as a top-tier Australian security partner. Recommendations: Ezra Klein's interviews with Kevin Rudd and Maggie Haberman, and Sam Dalrymple's Shattered Lands. Australia in the World is written, hosted and produced by Darren Lim, with research and audio editing by Hannah Nelson and theme music composed by Rory Stenning.
