In this episode of the Living in San Diego Podcast, Chris and Cass sit down with Jason Farnan, better known as Lieutenant Facemelter, the 2013 U.S. National Air Guitar Champion.Jason gives us a behind-the-scenes look at the wild world of competitive air guitar, from local San Diego competitions to the U.S. Nationals and the Air Guitar World Championships in Oulu, Finland. We talk about how routines are judged, what “airness” actually means, the costumes, the stage personas, and why this fringe art form is a lot more serious than people might think.We also get into Jason's story of moving from Rochester, New York to San Diego, how the documentary Air Guitar Nation pulled him into the scene, and what it has been like performing as Lieutenant Facemelter for more than a decade.Plus, Jason shares another side of his career as a professional graphic and UX designer, including the story behind creating a trumpet-themed logo for New York Mets closer Edwin Díaz that ended up being sold as official merchandise at Citi Field.And if you're in San Diego, there's an upcoming San Diego Air Guitar competition happening Saturday, May 30th at 7:00 PM at Booze Brothers Brewing Company in Vista. It's free, all-ages, and open to new competitors.LINKS: Event (FREE): https://www.instagram.com/p/DWvGvW3lCNh/ Lt.

Tällä historiallisella päivämäärällä Ruotsin kuningas Kaarle IX päätti, että Pohjois-Suomeen tarvitaan kaupunki ja niin syntyi Oulu. Aleksanteri I taas siirsi Suomen pääkaupungin Turusta Helsinkiin ja Tampereelle avattiin oma Stockmann. Myöhemmin taikuri David Copperfield hämmästytti maailmaa kadottamalla Vapaudenpatsaan suorassa tv-lähetyksessä ja Yhdysvalloissa nähtiin ensimmäinen jakso kulttisarjasta Twin Peaks.

Kate Adie presents stories from Qatar and Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, Latvia, South Korea and FinlandThe US-Israeli war with Iran saw a marked escalation this week with strikes on some of the world's biggest gas fields. Israel's attack on Iran's south Pars gas field triggered a swift response from Tehran, who launched strikes on the Ras Laffan terminal – the world's largest liquefied natural gas facility, and other gulf countries. The attacks caused oil and gas prices to spike. Frank Gardner has been in Riyadh and Doha.In Venezuela, billboards and banners of former President, Nicolas Maduro still line the roads of Caracas after he was seized in January by US forces. Washington has outlined a plan for Venezuela and eased sanctions but hasn't provided a timeframe for elections. And many young Venezuelans are sceptical that much will change, says Ione Wells.Next week the BBC's Russian Service marks its 80th anniversary. The service's editor Jenny Norton reflects on how the team have found ways to adapt after the clampdown on media freedoms and the invasion of Ukraine, and setting up a new base in Latvia.In South Korea, a new genre of movies is taking the entertainment world by storm: the “micro-drama.” They're carefully curated one- or two-minute-long shows with intense plotlines, made to be watched on your phone. Jake Kwon in Seoul went behind the scenes.The BBC's climate editor, Justin Rowlatt, isn't just interested in our warming world, he's also a keen cold-water swimmer. And he recently found himself competing in the Winter Swimming World Championships in Oulu, a town in northern Finland, about 100 miles south of the Arctic circle.Series Producer: Serena Tarling Production Coordinators: Katie Morrison and Sophie Hill Editor: Richard Vadon

Recorremos la ciudad finlandesa en el año en que presenta ante el resto de Europa su carácter innovador y resiliente bajo temperaturas gélidas
Viaggio nella città finlandese di Oulu, affacciata sul mar Baltico vicino al Circolo Polare Artico, che si prepara a vivere un anno eccezionale come capitale europea della cultura 2026 coniugando tradizione locale, creatività contemporanea, partecipazione pubblica e innovazione tecnologica.Un tempo nota come “la Silicon Valley del Nord” - perché negli anni ‘80 la Nokia vi installò il suo quartier generale trasformandola in un polo tecnologico di livello mondiale – una ventina d'anni fa la città ha vissuto una crisi industriale gravissima, ritrovandosi improvvisamente con migliaia di disoccupati e un'economia locale da reinventare. Ma proprio da quella frattura è nato un percorso di trasformazione virtuoso, con il passaggio da una monocultura industriale a un ecosistema più aperto, fatto di startup, creatività, tecnologia, cultura digitale e partecipazione civica. Il titolo di capitale europea della cultura 2026 rappresenta un riconoscimento simbolico e concreto: Oulu racconta come una città colpita dal declino di un colosso tecnologico abbia saputo ripensare la propria identità, trasformando una crisi industriale in un progetto di futuro. L'ampio programma di iniziative di quest'anno si propone, tra le altre cose, di valorizzare le tradizioni e la cultura dei sámi, il popolo indigeno che abita le regioni artiche.

Looking for a smarter way to travel and a richer way to live when you get back? We're launching Season Eight with A for Airbnb, sharing how a long road trip through Finland and Norway transformed from a checklist of sights into a string of homes. From a lakeside house with a wood-fired sauna in Puolanka to an RV in the Inari village, from the Arctic Circle at Rovaniemi to Norway's brooding fjords, we used Airbnbs to slow down, meet neighbors, and absorb the quiet routines that define Nordic life.Along the way we chased the northern lights near Levi, learned why Finnish apartments feel so peaceful, and discovered how to spot the small details that make a stay effortless: strong Wi‑Fi, laundry days, clear entry instructions, local tips, and respectful house norms. Historic Kittilä surprised us with an artist-host who kept stories alive along with salvaged wood and open-hearth cooking. Oulu and Turku balanced old-town charm with modern coffee culture and kid-friendly spaces. The big takeaway wasn't a single perfect property; it was how the right stay turns a map into a neighborhood and a night into a lesson you can use at home.We also flip the script and talk about hosting. Back in Waco, our 1916 fixer-upper doubles as an Airbnb where guest nights help fund restoration. We share our playbook for five-star experiences on both sides: how to filter and book smarter, how to be a great guest who communicates and respects the space, and how hosts can elevate comfort with small, thoughtful touches like printed Wi‑Fi, bedside charging, clear guides, and a warm welcome.

Do your knees hurt when you stand up? Are you losing range of motion in your hips? Have you been told you have osteoarthritis—but left without real guidance or solutions? You're not alone. When I was first diagnosed with hip osteoarthritis, I didn't even know what it meant. A quick online search gave me generic advice like “lose weight,” which as an athletic person was the last thing I needed to do. Maybe you're in the same boat—searching for better answers. That's why I invited Professor Ali Mobasheri to the show. He's one of the world's leading experts on osteoarthritis, aging, and joint health—and in this conversation, he breaks down what we really need to know about OA and can we reverse it, especially during midlife and menopause. We cover: What osteoarthritis actually is and how it differs from other types of arthritis and osteoporosis Why osteoarthritis is not just a “wear and tear” condition How widespread osteoarthritis truly is—and why the numbers are underestimated How menopause influences joint health and increases OA risk Why younger adults are increasingly being diagnosed Whether it's possible to reverse osteoarthritis Which treatments and holistic strategies are most promising Why research around hormone therapy and OA is still lacking Professor Ali Mobasheri is a globally recognized expert in musculoskeletal biology and osteoarthritis research. He is a Professor of Musculoskeletal Biology at the University of Oulu in Finland and a Past President of the Osteoarthritis Research Society International (OARSI). Chief Researcher & International Adviser at the State Research Institute Centre for Innovative Medicine in Lithuania He is an active member of the International Cartilage Regeneration & Joint Preservation Society (ICRS). His research explores the intersection of inflammation, metabolism, and joint aging, with a focus on early diagnosis and prevention. He also serves as an adviser to the World Health Organization and sits on numerous scientific advisory boards, including those focused on osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, and regenerative medicine. He has published over 400 scientific papers and holds an h-index of 78—an extraordinary achievement in academic research.

Dr. Anna Krzywoszynska is a social scientist at the University of Oulu in Finland who studies how farmers and scientists can collaborate to foster regenerative agriculture. An expert on soil knowledge and values, with experience farming organically in Italy, Dr. Krzywoszynska examines the knowledge systems shaping food production. Currently, she's investigating how to transform agricultural research to support local communities, including turning research stations into hubs for collaboration between farmers and scientists. Her projects aim to align scientific inquiry with local needs, promoting community-driven innovation and sustainable land use. In this episode, John and Anna discuss: How farmers see soil as a resource to manage, while scientists seek broad, universal insights. How academic and agri-business structures favor research on general trends over practical, local farming solutions. The community's role in regenerative agriculture, enabling farmers to learn and innovate together. Research stations as potential community hubs integrating local farmers needs into science. Regenerative agriculture's ability to restore hope and reconnect farmers with nature. Celebrating mistakes as essential for learning and growth in farming.
