Send us a textWhat if the fastest way to peace isn't more learning, but more willingness? We open with a rain-soaked, cedar-scented snapshot from the Pacific Northwest and then dive straight into the heart of our practice: letting the mind's patterns reveal themselves without fear, defense, or control. Rather than forcing outcomes, we explore how to live from command—the effortless extension of love that quietly reorganizes perception—while releasing the ego's compulsion to manage every variable.We trace a powerful thread through the “I and I” relationship: the aspectless source and the individuated self. When they feel close, life becomes ecstatic, natural, and generous. From that closeness, we revisit world “problems” like killing, climate, and conflict without hardening into blame or superiority. Instead of adding density to dense topics, we reframe them as projections of a secret belief in threat, and let awareness do what willpower never can.Along the way we unpack people pleasing and guilt, the trap of fantasy, and the myth of private thoughts. We talk about why sickness narratives stick, how symptoms mirror believed guilt, and how gentle responsibility dissolves them without shame. Diet becomes a surprising teacher: no food saves or condemns you, and quantification only tightens the body-concept. Bless your experience, and behavior shifts on its own. We also share how to plan life's particulars while leaving miracles unplanned, and how ACIM practice can turn into identity if we chase methods instead of choosing forgiveness now.If you're ready to trade striving for grace, control for command, and narratives for direct seeing, this conversation will feel like fresh air.

Keith Forsyth began his flying journey with skydiving, then speed flying and wing suit base jumping but the lack of margin in speed flying and base lead him to XC Paragliding, where he's been drawing lines across the Pacific Northwest with what can only be described as a magical and inspired paintbrush. If you haven't been to the Pacific Northwest think alpine rain forest and big, jagged glaciated mountains. Rain, lots and lots of rain. DENSE impenetrable forest, deep gorges, few roads, lots of bugs, and very few places to land. Keith has been laying down bivvy lines across the Cascade and Olympic ranges of Washington and Oregon and Coast Ranges of British Colombia the last few years that are ambitious, bold, and absolutely breathtaking. Keith waits for a good forecast, packs up to 7 days of food, sometimes adds a packraft and takes to the skies. Sometimes the mission involves some pretty memorable bushwacking, other times a glorious paddle out and some fishing along the way, other times he'll find himself top landing an alpine meadow and sharing some space with a black bear.

The temperate rainforests of the Pacific Northwest, stretching from Alaska all the way down to the redwoods of California, are some of the most productive and biodiverse forests on the planet. In terms of total carbon sequestration and storage, nothing beats them—particularly the towering coast redwoods. In this climate crisis, the best thing we can do is to grow these forests older, safely storing carbon away. But there is a concerted effort by the timber industry to offer a different "solution:" cutting down trees to store carbon in wood products. Environmental journalist Paul Koberstein, author of the book Canopy of Titans, joins the program to discuss the magnificence of the temperate rainforests of North America and his reporting on greenwashing of timber operations in the name of the climate.Support the show

The primary focus of today's discussion centers on the severe weather conditions currently impacting the Pacific Northwest and surrounding regions. A high-impact Pacific storm is delivering substantial rainfall, strong winds, and snowfall across various areas, raising significant concerns about flooding and hazardous travel conditions. As we navigate through the complexities of this weather event, it is imperative to recognize the ongoing flood warnings, winter hazards, and the risks posed by blizzard conditions in states such as North Dakota and Montana. Furthermore, we shall highlight the critical situation in Washington, where record flooding has necessitated numerous rescues and evacuations.

In California, for instance, we discuss the anticipated rainfall and the potential for minor urban flooding, while in Idaho, we highlight the blizzard conditions and the resultant dangers posed to travelers. Our analysis does not shy away from the human aspect of these events, as we recount reports of fatalities linked to the extreme weather, underscoring the importance of vigilance and community response during such crises. By the conclusion of our discourse, we aim to impart a comprehensive understanding of the current storm's impact, fostering awareness and preparedness among our listeners.Takeaways:* A potent Pacific storm is currently causing significant flooding and hazardous weather across the Northwest region. * Wind advisories and winter weather warnings have been issued for multiple states due to severe conditions. * The ongoing weather events have resulted in major power outages and numerous emergency responses throughout the affected areas. * Travel remains extremely dangerous in regions experiencing blizzard conditions and high winds, particularly in North Dakota and Montana. * Flood warnings and advisories continue to be in effect as heavy rainfall persists in western Oregon and California. * Authorities are urging residents to remain vigilant and prepared for changing weather conditions and potential evacuations.

J. discusses the values that drive today's homeowners, including the desire for meaningful spaces, outdoor living, and wellness-focused environments.Ted and J. also examine how construction has evolved, the impact of rising costs, and why permitting delays remain one of the industry's biggest frustrations.

In this episode of the Global Fresh Series, we begin with a lighthearted (and honest) reflection on holiday travel, how flying has changed over the years, and why a cup of fresh fruit might be the best carry-on you can bring. But quickly, the conversation turns serious as we examine how timing, weather, and global trade pressures are reshaping fresh produce supply chains. Shifting to the U.S. Pacific Northwest, where torrential rainfall in Northwest Washington is creating real-time challenges for growers of berries, seed crops, specialty vegetables, forage, and dairy feed.Peak of the Market: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://peakofthemarket.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Premium Zag Technological Services, Inc.: https://www.zagtech.com/ Global Women Fresh: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://globalwomenfresh.com

This fall, the U.S. Department of the Interior cancelled nearly 80 grants to organizations that focus on habitat restoration, species conservation and other ecological work. According to a social media post from the Department of Government Efficiency, the cuts were made because the organizations supported diversity, equity and inclusion efforts.   More than a third of the grants cancelled were awarded to the Institute for Applied Ecology, based in Corvallis. The nonprofit received 30 termination notices on Sept. 23, totaling more than $3.5 million. The Lomakatsi Restoration Project, based in Ashland, also lost $2.4 million across eight grants.   Tom Kaye is the founder and chief scientist at the Institute for Applied Ecology. He joins us to talk about how the funding cuts will hinder conservation efforts in the Pacific Northwest.

This week on Better Buildings for Humans, host Joe Menchefski sits down with Cydian Kauffman, founder of Pure Water Northwest, for an essential conversation on one of the most overlooked aspects of healthy buildings: water quality. From shocking realities about what “legal” versus “healthy” water means, to the growing threat of PFAS and microplastics, Cydian unpacks the hidden complexities of our water systems. With a background in property management and mediation, he brings a unique perspective to the intersection of infrastructure, education, and public health. You'll learn why even clean-looking water can be problematic, how different building types—from homes to hospitals—face distinct challenges, and what technologies are actually effective in protecting our water. This episode is a must-listen for anyone serious about making buildings safer, smarter, and more sustainable from the inside out.More About Cydian KauffmanCydian Kauffman is the founder of Pure Water Northwest, where he helps homeowners, families, and communities take control of their water quality using science-backed, practical solutions. With years of hands-on experience in water treatment and a passion for public education, Cydian has guided clients across the Pacific Northwest through challenges like industrial runoff, high iron levels, bacterial contamination, arsenic, iron bacteria, and even mysterious health issues tied to hidden toxins in household water.What sets Cydian apart is his commitment to demystifying water. He believes people shouldn't be forced to blindly trust experts or marketing claims-they should understand what's in their water and what really works to make it safe. That's why he's unafraid to tackle complex and often controversial topics like fluoride, PFAS (“forever chemicals”), structured water, and hydrogenated water, cutting through the myths and misinformation to deliver clear, actionable insights.Cydian is a passionate educator and problem-solver who believes water clarity should mean more than just how it looks-it should mean transparency about its true contents and impacts. Whether helping families protect their drinking water or working with communities to improve group systems, his mission is to empower people with knowledge so they can make confident, informed decisions for their health and well-being.Contact:https://www.linkedin.com/in/cydian-kauffman/ Where To Find Us:https://bbfhpod.advancedglazings.com/www.advancedglazings.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/better-buildings-for-humans-podcastwww.linkedin.com/in/advanced-glazings-ltd-848b4625https://twitter.com/bbfhpodhttps://twitter.com/Solera_Daylighthttps://www.instagram.com/bbfhpod/https://www.instagram.com/advancedglazingsltdhttps://www.facebook.com/AdvancedGlazingsltd

Episode Summary Zach kicks off the show with a look at a new throw bag from Sockdolager, modified with 5/16" Sterling rope for a better grip—available now at River Hardware. He then tackles a deep dive into river safety, specifically why running rivers during the "first big flood" of the season is a recipe for disaster due to debris and taxed search-and-rescue resources. The episode takes a personal turn as Zach explains his unique career path from teaching engineering to owning Northwest Rafting Company, followed by an extensive technical clinic on boat selection. He compares the Wing Jumbo to the Air Outfitter 2 for the Chetco River and breaks down why an 11-foot Sotar Legend is the "sports car" of catarafts for day trips in the Pacific Northwest. Highlights The "First Flood" Danger: Zach explains why he avoids first-of-the-year flood runs—new strainers, floating debris (like entire decks!), and the ethical responsibility of not taxing emergency services during active flood events. Engineering to Outfitting: A behind-the-scenes look at how Zach transitioned from teaching community college engineering to buying a rafting company, with a candid take on the "not-so-glamorous" side of business like accounting and permitting. Upper Chetco Boat Beta: Why tube diameter and boat length matter for the Chetco. Zach recommends big-tube stability (like the Wing Jumbo) over low-sitting packrafts for navigating rocky, technical drops. Cataract Sizing Clinic: Is a 12.6-foot cat the most versatile? Zach argues yes for multi-days, but champions the 11-foot cat for pure performance and ease of transport on PNW day runs like the Wind or White Salmon. Manufacturer Breakdown: A candid review of cataraft brands—why Sotar and Air lead the pack in design, while brands like Maravia still struggle with cataraft rocker and "twitchy" performance. R2 Class Interest: Zach discusses the possibility of bringing R2 (two-person paddling) training to Hood River and asks for listener feedback to gauge interest for a spring session. Gear Mentioned River Hardware Sockdolager Throw Bag A modified version with 5/16" static Sterling rope, designed for a better "hand" than standard thin packrafting lines. Wing Jumbo Kayak: A square-bow inflatable kayak designed specifically for technical stability on the Chetco. AIRE Outfitter 2: A longer inflatable kayak compared to the Jumbo, discussed for its suitability on technical multi-days. SOTAR Legend Zach's top pick for high-performance catarafts, specifically the 11-foot version. Ask for the "Creeker Version" AIRE Wave Destoryer: A high-performance cataraft alternative with aggressive rocker. Related Resources Whitewater Guidebook – The go-to spot for submitting show questions and finding detailed river maps.

Wrap-Up Thanks for joining this episode of the Gear Garage Live Show. Whether you're debating between a cataraft or a raft for your next purchase, or wondering if you should head out on that flood-stage run, Zach's advice remains: prioritize stability, trusted partners, and the right tool for the job.

In this edition of The Update Journal, I issue what can generously be described as a retraction regarding the St. George Ferry route—though in reality, it's less an apology and more an admission that I simply did not read the schedule. At all. Turns out the boat does go where it says it goes… when you look. Meanwhile, it's the final week before Christmas, which means every Target, Five Below, and vaguely festive retail space has been transformed into a real-life obstacle course. Everyone has collectively decided now is the time to shop, creating a citywide panic fueled by procrastination, blinking lights, and people blocking aisles while “just browsing.” And finally, we ask the most important question of the season: how much would the 12 Days of Christmas actually cost today? Spoiler alert: the answer involves inflation, regret, and the realization that true love may need a payment plan.In the headlines on #TheUpdate this Monday, six teenagers were wounded in a mass shooting at a Brooklyn “Sweet 16” birthday bash– with a pair of gunmen still on the loose, according to police.A weekend storm sent temperatures plunging well below zero in the Midwest and dumped heavy snow on parts of the Northeast, creating many airport delays and slick roads as the Pacific Northwest braced for more rain after days of flooding and mudslides.And it was a day of crisis around the world:In Los Angeles, Director-actor Rob Reiner and his wife Michele were the two people found dead at a Los Angeles home owned by Reiner, according to a law enforcement official briefed on the investigation. Overseas, Two gunmen opened fire during a Hanukkah celebration on Sydney's Bondi beach, killing 15 people, including a child, officials said Monday, in what Prime Minister Anthony Albanese called an act of antisemitic terrorism that struck at the heart of the nation. The shooters were father and son. And In Rhode Island, a person of interest detained after a Brown University shooting that killed two students and injured nine will be released after law enforcement authorities determined there was no basis to keep the individual in custody.

For the last few months, Navajo Nation leaders have been butting heads over who is its official controller – the person responsible for handling the tribe's finances. Navajo Nation President Buu Nygren tried firing that top official. As KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio reports, that dispute is now over. Sean McCabe has been reaffirmed as the sole lawful controller through a legally binding stipulation between him and President Nygren, which also orders Controller McCabe to receive backpay and have his attorney fees covered. Nygren recently apologized for sending profanity-laced texts leaked by McCabe to council delegates. “I used language that I shouldn't have. In moments of great stress we don't always act as our best selves. This was one such occasion for me.” The October exchange preceded his sudden termination. Screenshots show Nygren pressured McCabe to unlock his government-issued purchase card, but McCabe told him there's no budget. Nygren reiterates that his agreement with McCabe isn't a “compelled admission” of any “unlawful action” or “wrongdoing.” Quinhagak resident Patrick Jones deploys a buoy in the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta region in early summer 2025. (Photo: Sean Gleason) A program that helps boaters in Indigenous coastal communities use buoys to track weather conditions wrapped up another season this fall. Advocates of the Backyard Buoys program say it increased safety for fishermen in Western Alaska – and helped hunters in Alaska's Arctic land whales. The Alaska Desk’s Alena Naiden from our flagship station KNBA has more. Several years ago, seven boaters went missing in the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta region and were never found. The loss motivated residents to find ways to better understand their changing waterways. Nalaquq is an organization that integrates Indigenous knowledge into research in the region. The company joined a nationwide initiative, called the Backyard Buoy project, and deployed three buoys in the area for the first time this year. Lynn Marie Church is Nalaquq's chief executive officer. “We wanted to understand what was going on in our ocean … in our waterways, especially with the changes in the environment that we've seen over the past 10 years.” Backyard Buoys project helps Indigenous coastal communities in Alaska, as well as the Pacific Northwest and Pacific Islands, support maritime activities. Buoys track wave height, temperature, and barometric pressure in real time. Residents can see that information in an app and decide whether it is safe to travel. Church says that using the Backyard Buoys app has been easy. “When you look at where the locations are, it's not by latitude and longitude, it's by place names. That's how we learn in rural Alaska.” Sean Gleason is the head of Research and Development at Nalaquq. “We picked locations where people travel for subsistence or daily travel.” The goal was also to spread out those buoys so communities in different parts of the region can use the data. “There's no one community. Everyone's related.” In Alaska's Arctic, the project has been ramping up as well. The Alaska Eskimo Whaling Commission facilitated the installment of buoys in six communities this year. Martin Edwardsen is the commission's coordinator for the project and is also a whaling co-captain. “I was looking at the app and seeing that the waves weren't too big in the general area where we were headed. So we went out that way and we successfully harvested a whale and brought it back to our community to feed.” The whaling commission is now looking for translators to allow users of the Backyard Buoys app see information in their Native language.

In this explosive episode, Johnny sits down with Aaron Peila — a former multi-state Oxy distributor who survived five brutal years inside USP Victorville, one of the deadliest federal prisons in America. From running a massive opioid pipeline across Nevada, Utah, Idaho, Alaska, and the Pacific Northwest to navigating the violent racial politics of high-security federal lockup, Aaron pulls no punches as he breaks down his story in raw, unfiltered detail. Aaron explains how he built an oxy empire during the height of the opioid boom, how pills flowed through dirty doctors and retirement communities, and why markets like Alaska were paying exorbitant prices. He also opens up about the corruption inside the Bureau of Prisons, the influx of contraband phones after COVID, and what it really takes to survive in a place where everyone has a weapon and people get stabbed regularly. From music-industry ambitions and touring with rap artists…to DEA pressures, federal enhancements, snitches, RICO fears, and the three overdose deaths that nearly put him away for life… to trying to rebuild a life after 14 years inside a system designed to break you — this is one of the most gripping redemption-arc interviews we've ever had.
