In this special episode of Waypoints, host Jim Klug sits down with longtime friend, business partner, and fellow saltwater addict Ian Davis to talk about an incredible project nearly a decade in the making. Ian – a renowned angler, illustrator, fly designer, and global trip host – has just released his highly anticipated new book, A Passion for Bonefish. This landmark publication is the result of more than eight years of dedicated work, extensive travel, in-depth research, and conversations with some of the most legendary names in saltwater fly fishing. The book is more than just a technical guide or glossy photo journal. Rather, it's a heartfelt tribute to one of the most iconic fish in the sport and a celebration of the places, people, and culture that surround the pursuit of bonefish.As the co-owner of Yellow Dog Flyfishing (a sponsor of Waypoints), Ian brings a wealth of personal experience to the conversation - having chased bonefish across the globe for more than 30 years. In this episode, Ian and Jim dive deep into the evolution of the book, the insights it delivers, and the reasons why bonefish continue to capture the hearts of so many fly anglers. From gear tips and fly selection to destination highlights, conservation concerns, and bonefishing strategy, this conversation is a must-listen for anyone who love fishing the flats and those that plan to in the future. Whether you're new to bonefishing or a seasoned saltwater veteran, Ian's knowledge, stories, and passion for the species shine through in what promises to be one of the most engaging episodes of the season.After the success of the 2024 Belize and 2023 Baja Bluegrass events, we're excited to bring the experience back to Belize for 2025. Join us November 4–9 at El Pescador Lodge on Ambergris Caye for a five-night, all-inclusive fishing, beach, and bluegrass getaway—exclusively for 30 couples.Waypoints is brought to you by PatagoniaTo bring their gear to life, Patagonia is motivated by relentless curiosity and a passion for the wild.

150 people were convinced to leave all they knew to move to a new land many thousands of miles away only to find out that Patagonia in Argentina was not as it had been described. Along the way we address the treatment of local indigenous groups who were inhabiting that area.

In dieser Episode des Murakamy Podcasts ist Achim Hensen zu Gast. Er ist Mitgründer von Purpose und beschäftigt sich seit über einem Jahrzehnt intensiv mit der Frage, wie Unternehmensbesitz strukturiert sein sollte, um gesellschaftlichen und unternehmerischen Zielen gleichermaßen gerecht zu werden. Achim und Marco sprechen über das Konzept des Verantwortungseigentums – eine alternative Eigentumsform, die Unternehmen langfristig ihrer Mission verpflichtet und dabei Selbstbestimmung sowie Gemeinwohl in den Mittelpunkt stellt. Die beiden diskutieren, wie Besitz grundsätzlich definiert werden kann, welche Rechte und Verpflichtungen damit verbunden sind und inwiefern man Eigentum und Verantwortung neu denken und aufteilen kann. Außerdem geht es um die Frage, wie nicht nur Arbeit, sondern auch das Tragen von unternehmerischem Risiko fair entlohnt und gestaltet werden kann – und was das mit der grundlegenden Überlegung zu tun hat, wann eigentlich „genug“ erreicht ist. Anhand prominenter Beispiele wie Bosch und Patagonia beleuchten die beiden, wie Verantwortungseigentum bereits erfolgreich umgesetzt wurde, und analysieren ebenso komplexe Konstruktionen wie die Eigentumsverhältnisse von OpenAI. Dabei nähern sie sich einer fundamentalen Frage: Was ist eigentlich der Zweck eines Unternehmens – jenseits von Gewinnmaximierung?

In this eye-opening episode of Paranormal Activity, Yvette Fielding delves into one of the most fascinating and perplexing aspects of human history—the giants who may have once walked the Earth.From massive skeletal remains to ancient cities that could have belonged to giant beings, there are chilling reports throughout history of discoveries too large to ignore.Yvette explores the mysterious giant skeletal remains that have been unearthed in places like Death Valley, California, where F. Bruce Russell allegedly uncovered an enormous humanoid skeleton, and Castelnau, France, where bones of a being over 12 feet tall were found.Other bizarre discoveries, like the giant footprints in Mpuluzi, South Africa and Patagonia, continue to raise questions about a lost race of giants that could have inhabited the earth in antiquity.But it doesn't stop there—Yvette also investigates ancient cities and megalithic sites that could have been constructed by giants or in their honor, including the mysterious Göbekli Tepe in Turkey, the massive stone structures of Nan Madol in Micronesia, and the Titans of the Caucasus in Georgia.What could these giant statues and cities—some of which predate recorded history—reveal about the giants of our past?And why have these incredible discoveries been suppressed, ignored, or covered up?Join Yvette as she uncovers the secrets of these giant remains and lost civilizations, examining the beliefs, folklore, and mysteries that have surrounded these beings for centuries.Could giants really have once ruled the Earth, and why do their stories remain shrouded in secrecy?Tune in to uncover the truth behind the mysterious giants and their profound impact on history.

Federico Sturzenegger, ministro de Desregulación se refirió a Vialidad Nacional, y afirmó: “Una organización con 5.000 empleados, un resabio de otros momentos de Argentina cuando Vialidad Nacional hacía obras hace muchísimos años, que Vialidad Nacional ya no hace obras. Son 1.500 delegados sindicales, de los cuales de los 5.000, en tareas de reparación y mantenimiento de las rutas, hay 1.000”.También afirmó que “la concesión de las redes troncales implica que uno hace un sistema de peajes y el que toma la ruta, básicamente hace el mantenimiento de la ruta y hace, digamos, las obras para que la ruta esté en condiciones y que sean necesarias”.Fabián Cattanzaro, secretario gremial del sindicato de personal de vialdad sostuvo: “El cierre de vialidad implica profundizar esta falta de atención que hemos tenido en dos años. Con un 65-70% de las rutas en mal estado, este cuadro se va a grabar. Vos imaginante que hoy nosotros hacemos el despeje de nieve, o sea, se habilita la conectividad en toda la Patagonia por vialidad que hace el despeje de nieve. En todo estamos nosotros y en todo eso se va a ver resentido”.Julio Cobos, diputado nacional por Mendoza por la Unión Cívica Radical sostuvo: “Si vos me dijeras, vamos a ser más eficientes de la vialidad nacional, estoy de acuerdo, vamos a reducir los distritos, estoy de acuerdo. Ahora, si vos ves que no hace mantenimiento, que no hace obras nuevas, que ni siquiera las hace por peaje, un gobierno que hace hablar de la seguridad, bueno, la seguridad vial forma parte de la seguridad. Tenemos en el año 2024 1.833 homicidios. ¿Sabés cuándo son las muertes por accidentes? 3.583 duplican entonces no se nos ocurre la mejor idea vamos a cerrar Vialidad Nacional y la Agencia de Seguridad”.

Entrevistamos a Rafael Cheuquelaf, periodista y gestor cultural en Magallanes, Patagonia chilena, y con Víctor Vargas, de la comunidad yagán Tierra del fuego, artesano, investigador y guía del Museo del Fin del Mundo de Ushuaia. Nos hablan de cómo las comunidades de Patagonia y de Tierra de Fuego se oponen a la industria del salmón, la salmonicultura, y a las concesiones a empresas noruegas, por las consecuencias que esto está teniendo en Chile: contaminación del suelo y del mar, problemas en la salud de los habitantes y en otras especies. Chile es un país pionero en esta industria; Argentina una ley aprobada en 2021 prohibió la salmonicultura pero ahora se está debatiendo su derogación.Escuchar audio
El Cono Sur está enfrentando una ola de frío con temperaturas de hasta 20 grados bajo cero en la Patagonia, un fenómenos al mismo tiempo intenso y excepcional, dijo a RFI el climatólogo chileno Raúl Cordero, profesor en la Universidad de Santiago. El país más afectado es Argentina, aunque el fenómeno también impacta a Chile y Uruguay. La causa es una masa de aire polar que se escapó desde la Antártica. "Esta ola de frío fue un escape de una masa desde los polos hacia latitudes medias, en este caso hacia el Cono Sur: Argentina, Chile, sur de Brasil. Como estamos en invierno austral, era esperable que este escape de masa de aire frío trajera temperaturas bajas, y en algunos casos fueron récords históricos. Así que se trató de un evento intenso. Lo usual es que las masas de aire cálido permanezcan 'atrapadas', confinadas al trópico, y las masas de aire frío permanezcan confinadas a los polos. Pero a veces se puede escapar una u otra", explica Raúl Cordero. Y eso fue precisamente lo que ocurrió en este caso: olas de calor en Europa, de frío en el Cono Sur. ¿Qué tan preparados estaban los gobiernos para una situación así? "Desgraciadamente, al ser un evento récord, era poco esperable que los países estuvieran preparados", responde Raúl Cordero, profesor de la Universidad de Santiago. Hemisferio norte, el peor de los mundos "En el hemisferio norte es otra historia, pero en el hemisferio sur las olas de frío van disminuyendo en frecuencia. Es decir, a pesar de que estamos en invierno austral, este es un evento extraordinariamente inusual. Es diferente a lo que pasa con las olas de calor, que van en aumento en frecuencia e intensidad en todo el mundo. Entonces, la gente está cada vez más 'preparada'. Por ejemplo, la ola de calor que golpeó a Francia estos días fue muy intensa, pero no va a causar, ni de cerca, los 70.000 muertos que provocó la ola de calor de agosto de 2003 en Francia. ¿Por qué? Porque en esa época Francia, ni Europa, estaban habituadas o preparadas para eventos de calor como los de ahora. En cambio, hoy están mucho, mucho más preparados. Acá es la misma historia, pero con el frío. Cada vez hay más olas de calor, pero cada vez menos olas de frío. Este evento tomó por sorpresa a la población en ambos lados de la cordillera, en el Cono Sur". El climatólogo subraya también la desigualdad del impacto del cambio climático. "El vórtice polar, el vórtice ártico, se está debilitando, y los escapes de masas de aire frío en invierno en el hemisferio norte van al alza. Entonces, en el hemisferio norte es como 'el peor de los mundos', porque aumentan tanto las olas de calor como las olas de frío".

Andy Ruben is the Founder and Executive Chairman of Trove, a re-commerce technology company that powers branded resale programs for major labels like Patagonia, Lululemon, REI, and Levi's. Before Trove, he spent a decade at Walmart as the company's first Chief Sustainability Officer, where he launched global sustainability efforts, led omnichannel and private-brand strategies, and integrated e‑commerce — including the rollout of grocery delivery. Ruben founded Trove (originally Yerdle) in 2012 and introduced the first branded resale platform with Patagonia's Worn Wear in 2017, helping advance the circular economy across more than 150 global brands. He advises BCG and Earthshot Ventures, serves as Lead Independent Director and ESG Committee Chair at Zevia, and has been featured on NPR, TED, and testified before Congress on sustainable business practices. In this episode… Most brands sell products once and lose the customer until their next full-price purchase — often years later. In today's economy, that leaves businesses vulnerable to rising acquisition costs, volatile supply chains, and growing consumer demand for sustainability. So, how can companies reclaim the value of their products, strengthen customer relationships, and stay competitive in the circular economy? Andy Ruben, a sustainability expert and retail pioneer, shares how brands can tap into the hidden inventory in customers' closets by implementing buy-back and resale systems. He explains how branded resale builds loyalty and trust, reduces acquisition costs, and attracts new customers. He emphasizes the importance of starting small, using technology to streamline trade-ins, and designing programs that reinforce the brand's core values. Andy also reflects on his entrepreneurial journey, including hard-earned lessons about building a startup, pivoting business models, and executing founder-led sales in the early stages. In this episode of the Inspired Insider Podcast, Dr. Jeremy Weisz interviews Andy Ruben, Founder and Executive Chairman of Trove, about transforming retail through branded resale and the circular economy. Andy shares his startup origin story, the evolution from peer-to-peer to B2B, and insights on customer retention. He also discusses business development missteps, his leadership experience at Walmart, and why speed and focus matter most when launching a new venture.

Welcome to Part 2 of the Patagonia Swiftcurrent miniseries. Today, we speak with Alex Gonsiewski about a fishing trip that did not go as planned. Alex is a flyfishing guide in Oregon, where he targets trout and summer steelhead on the Deschutes River, summer steelhead on the John Day, and winter steelhead on the North Oregon coast. Between rainbow runs, Alex hosts angling trips around the world. He's taken clients to Mexico, Belize, Bolivia, Alaska, Christmas Island, and Puerto Rico. In 2023, Alex and a group of clients flew to Sudan for nine days of fishing on the Red Sea's Nubian Flats. Unfortunately, while Alex and company were on the water, the country fell into a vicious civil war that has since claimed the lives of 150,000 people and displaced more than thirteen million.

Welcome to Season 4 of The J Curve with me, Olga Maslikhova.This week, I sit down with Federico Vega, founder and CEO of Frete.com—the largest freight matching platform in Latin America.Federico's story is anything but conventional: he grew up in a small town in Patagonia, left a career in investment banking at JP Morgan in London, and moved—without speaking the language—to Brazil to reinvent an entire industry. What started as a Facebook group for truck drivers has evolved into a logistics giant, processing nearly $18 billion in freight transactions annually and serving ~900,000 active drivers—roughly 80% of Brazil's entire trucking fleet.In this episode, Federico shares how Frete.comsolved the classic chicken-and-egg dilemma, scaled a fragmented industry from the ground up, and transformed Brazilian complexity into a competitive moat. It's a masterclass in grit, product obsession, and doing things that don't scale.Here's what we cover:How to break network effects open in traditional industriesWhy doing unscalable things early creates lasting strategic edgeWhat Brazilian truck stops taught Federico about product designHow to use AI and data to combat fraud and drive operational leverageThe culture-building playbook behind Frete.com's growthFor founders building in complex markets—and investors betting on logistics and fintech as the future—this episode is a must-listen.More from us: Subscribe to our weekly newsletter The J Curve Insider, where we go beyond the podcast to break down the most exciting investment & tech trends in LATAM.

Zander Ault of Patagonia, AZ joins Reid to discuss what it's like to live and build a business in one of bird hunting's most iconic destinations. Not a hunter himself, Zander (and his partner Heidi) landed in Patagonia for the extraordinary gravel cycling, but soon found that the region was ground zero for desert quail hunters. Having opened and owned several businesses in town, Zander explores the tension of being a newcomer in a small, rural town, the challenge of keeping natural resources undiminished while cultivating a tourist economy, and some unique observations about the bird hunting community.

In this episode of Waypoints, we travel to the Bay Islands of Honduras to explore one of the most underrated and unknown saltwater destinations in the Caribbean — the island of Guanaja. Jim Klug sits down with Steve Brown, the founder of Fly Fish Guanaja and the visionary behind the Faraway Cayes program, for a deep dive into a 25-year journey that blends pioneering adventure, flats fishing obsession, conservation, and a deep commitment to local communities. From permit and bonefish to the realities of building and operating a remote, Central American lodge operation from the ground up, this conversation explores what it means to create something truly special in a part of the world that is still largely off the radar.Steve shares his incredible story — from early exploratory missions and reviving a historic fishery, to launching a second ultra-remote camp 160 miles offshore. Listeners will get an inside look at the angling opportunities on Guanaja's technical flats, the distinct experience of Faraway Cayes, and why both operations offer something rare in today's flyfishing world: true saltwater wilderness, low pressure, and meaningful purpose. Whether you're dreaming of tailing permit or curious about how world-class fisheries are discovered, launched, and protected, this episode offers both inspiration and information for every traveling angler.Waypoints is brought to you by PatagoniaTo bring their gear to life, Patagonia is motivated by relentless curiosity and a passion for the wild. They evaluate hundreds of materials, build dozens of prototypes and spend seasons punishing them in the world's most extreme conditions. The work is the guide, and Patagonia never tires of exploring, learning and improving.

Learn how stepping away from your business can lead to breakthrough ideas and personal growth In this episode of the Beyond 7 Figures podcast, talking about how powerful it can be for entrepreneurs to step away from their daily routines and go on meaningful adventures. You'll hear how getting out of your usual environment like traveling to remote places with no distractions can spark big ideas, fresh thinking, and personal growth. We talk about how stillness, nature, and deep reflection help solve problems and bring more clarity and purpose to both business and life. Our guest is Mike Brcic, the founder of Wayfinders. Mike takes groups of entrepreneurs on life-changing trips to places like Mongolia, Uganda, and Patagonia. He creates safe spaces where people can disconnect from their busy lives and reconnect with themselves. Mike shares how his own journey from business success to deeper self-discovery inspired him to help others find more meaning, direction, and breakthroughs through these powerful experiences. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Taking time away from your business in quiet, remote places can help you solve problems and find new ideas. Real breakthroughs often happen when you step out of your normal routine and slow down. Deep personal growth helps drive lasting business success. Childhood experiences can shape your drive, fears, and how you lead as an entrepreneur. Feeling connected to nature and others can bring clarity and purpose to your life and work. Creating space for stillness and reflection is just as important as hard work. The most successful entrepreneurs often shift from chasing success to serving others. Building a business with heart and meaning leads to deeper fulfillment and stronger impact. Growing your business is hard, but it doesn't have to be. In this podcast, we will be discussing top level strategies for both growing and expanding your business beyond seven figures. The show will feature a mix of pure content and expert interviews to present key concepts and fundamental topics in a variety of different formats. We believe that this format will enable our listeners to learn the most from the show, implement more in their businesses, and get real value out of the podcast. Enjoy the show.

Key Takeaways Stories transcend information: They build emotional connections, spark change, and offer a sense of possibility, making lessons memorable.Communicate the "why": Effective storytelling focuses on the purpose or benefit, not just the "what" (features) of a product, service, or company. Examples like Wipro's integrity, Starbucks' commitment to coffee experience, and Patagonia's environmental mission illustrate this powerfully."Facts tell, stories sell": Narratives are far more persuasive than data alone, engaging audiences on a deeper, emotional level.Storytelling is a versatile tool: It's effective for inculcating values, differentiating brands, recruiting talent (e.g., Google's unique recruitment puzzles), and fostering employee engagement.Leaders can cultivate this skill: Practice telling stories that are truthful, purposeful, simple, relatable (real-life references), and incorporate strategic vulnerability to inspire and connect with teams.#hashtags #Storytelling #Leadership #EffectiveCommunication #BusinessStrategy #CorporateCulture #BrandBuilding #EmployeeEngagement #InspiringLeaders #WhyOfTheBusiness #Patagonia #Starbucks #Wipro #Google #Coacharya #Podcast#hashtags #Storytelling #Leadership #EffectiveCommunication #BusinessStrategy #CorporateCulture #BrandBuilding #EmployeeEngagement #InspiringLeaders #WhyOfTheBusiness #Patagonia #Starbucks #Wipro #Google #Coacharya #Podcast
In this episode, I'm joined by Tim Newell, CEO and founder of GreenFi, a climate-focused fintech that emerged from the ashes of Aspiration's consumer banking business. Tim brings a fascinating fintech and climate tech pedigree, having previously sold a solar financing company to SolarCity, run financial products at both SolarCity and Tesla, and even survived five years working for Elon Musk. When Aspiration decided to pivot away from consumer banking to focus on global carbon markets in 2022, Tim saw an opportunity to acquire and restructure their consumer business. Through a complex licensing deal, he successfully transitioned over 98% of Aspiration's customers to his new platform while radically downsizing from 400 employees to just 40.GreenFi targets the 100 million Americans who cite climate as a significant worry, about 40% of U.S. adults, offering them banking products that guarantee their deposits won't support fossil fuels, automatically offset carbon from gas purchases, and enable tree planting through everyday transactions. We dive into how Tim thinks about the intersection of fintech and climate action, the challenges of building a sustainable business model in today's capital environment, and his ambitious vision to become "Patagonia for your bank account.”In this podcast you will learn:Tim's deep background in financial technology and climate tech.What was involved in Aspiration's pivot away from consumer fintech to the carbon markets.How Tim was able to spin out the consumer fintech business from Aspiration.How GreenFi grew out of that business.The product set for GreenFi and near term product roadmap.The huge percentage of deposits that moved over from Aspiration to GreenFi.The specific ways they are making their financial offerings carbon-friendly.Who makes up their target market.How the swing in Washington against climate initiatives is impacting GreenFi.How they restructured the business to a radically different cost base.How they are offsetting their own carbon footprint.The process for raising their $17 million seed round.Their different revenue streams.The scale that GreenFi is at today.Tim's vision for GreenFi.Connect with Fintech One-on-One: Tweet me @PeterRenton Connect with me on LinkedIn Find previous Fintech One-on-One episodes

Ollie talks about walking through Patagonia, being in some incredibly dodgy situations, learning Spanish on the hop, being kept company by Sandy the Dog and falling down a gorge. Ollie talks about crossing borders, becoming ill at certain points, running out of money after getting mugged in Columbia and readjusting to normal life after becoming the first person to cross the Andes through its 7 countries plus much much more…@ambitioniscritcal1997 on Instagram @TheAiCPodcast on Twitter

When Sonnie Trotter first tried climbing at age 15, he knew he'd found the path he was meant to follow. Now, 30 years later, he's looking back on a life spent pushing himself and the sport, chasing adventures in wild places.

Show Notes:Amy's Links:Fifth Class ClimbingEpisode Intro:Dear listeners of the Female Guides Requested Podcast, happy Wednesday! I'm your host, Ting Ting. I'm currently working and playing in the Pacific Northwest, escaping the heat of Las Vegas. Early this year, I finally caught up with Amy Shore from Fifth Class Climbing, based in Bishop, California! And I'm excited to share our conversations with you.Amy grew up in North Dakota and spent her young adult years traveling the world while pursuing her college degree in International Studies. After finding climbing at the age of 21, it became her life's passion and has been a main focus of her life for almost two decades.Bouldering, sport & trad climbing, establishing big wall first ascents in the Sierra and Patagonia, guiding 14,000 ft peaks… Amy loves the vast array of disciplines that climbing allows one to pursue. Establishing Fifth Class Climbing School in 2016 allowed her the freedom to guide what really inspired her, which was not big mountain objectives, but rather women's events and courses that focus on teaching women to be independent climbers.In 2021, Amy became the lead safety manager for a National Geographic TV show, combining guiding with rigging and logistics, and traveling the world to do it.Most recently, Amy became a mom and now has a 20-month-old son. She still runs and guides for Fifth Class and is currently most interested in a new pursuit: projecting sport climbs. The day after our interview, Amy sent her first 5.13.Things We Talked about:From Whitney Base Camp to Fifth Class ClimbingWanted to work with different clientele to focus more on instructionsInstructed before she became a climberUpbringing – explored outdoors and tried different sportsTravel and then Travel & ClimbFrom pebble wrestling to big wallsMom & projecting single pitch sport climbsTraining entered her lifeGuiding is an empowering professionStarted her own business in 2016 – Fifth Class Climbing and SchoolRigging for TV showsChanges and transitions after having a kidWhy Amy loves logistical challenges Quotes:There's a small amount that is a part of me that likes to suffer and push myself and see what I can do.When you're in that kind of mindset of doing big wall first ascents and alpine climbing and then guiding, you're in a very much no fall territory.I get to be the places I love being. I get to teach and I get to give people an amazing experience that is maybe once in a lifetime for them. maybe get them hooked so that they're doing this all the time. and it was empoweringIt's nice to be able to facilitate programs that people are excited about offering and helping them make that happen through the permitting and stuff.As adults, we kind of take ourselves seriously and as a kid, you just do what you want to do. That risk tolerance thing changing [has] been a really interesting part of it for me. And sometimes I think it's good guiding wise because I do have a lower risk tolerance than I used to. And I think that I see things and maybe this is from spotting my son too, but I think I see things preemptively better than I used to.That's why I really like doing the rigging work and the TV work as well is that I think I logistics is kind of my jamI love hearing that kind of feedback after guiding. And it's a special industry we're in. we get to help people realize their dreams.

In this episode, I sit down with Tim Bantle, President of heritage brand Filson and the former Patagonia executive who helped transform a $200 million company into a billion-dollar global powerhouse. From his philosophy degree to building some of the outdoor industry's most iconic products like the Nano Puff, Tim shares the unconventional path that led him to the top of two legendary American brands. You'll discover why he doesn't have a resume, how a family crisis became his greatest career opportunity, and the simple advice from his optician father that shaped his entire approach to business. Tim reveals the leadership strategies that actually work—from asking questions for six months before making changes to why authenticity is your ultimate competitive advantage. Whether you're climbing the corporate ladder or building your own business, this conversation is packed with practical wisdom from someone who's actually done it. What We Discussed: From Philosophy Student to Outdoor Industry Leader - How Tim's unconventional academic background in philosophy and literature led to a career building billion-dollar outdoor brands, and why his father jokingly told other parents to have their kids "just study philosophy" The Product Innovations That Changed Everything - The inside story of creating Patagonia's breakthrough products like the Down Sweater and Nano Puff, including how a failed fleece project accidentally revolutionized down insulation and became a billion-dollar product line How Family Crisis Became Career Catalyst - Why having a special needs child and his wife leaving her career actually freed Tim to pursue global opportunities, leading to roles across California, Utah, Europe, and Canada Leadership Without a Playbook - Tim's approach to taking over heritage brand Filson, why he spends six months asking questions before making changes, and how he avoids the trap of bringing solutions from previous companies The Network Effect and Authentic Success - Why Tim doesn't have a resume, how every job opportunity came through relationships, and his philosophy that being the best version of yourself is the key to finding the right opportunities

Known widely as the founder and former owner of Blue Ribbon Flies in West Yellowstone, Montana, Craig has spent decades immersed in the rivers, tributaries, and backcountry waters of Yellowstone National Park and the greater Yellowstone ecosystem. A former Chief of Police turned conservationist, fly shop owner, author, and advocate, Craig's journey is as remarkable as the landscape he's dedicated his life to protecting. With a career rooted in wild trout, groundbreaking fly design, and environmental stewardship, Craig reflects on his early years in the Park, the founding and rise of his iconic fly shop, and the countless innovations and conservation efforts that have defined his legacy.Jim and Craig dive into an expansive conversation covering everything from the challenges of launching a fly shop in the 1980s to the evolution of Yellowstone's trout populations and the gear that Craig still swears by. They discuss the origins of legendary fly patterns, Craig's early trips to Belize when it was still British Honduras, and his central role in the founding of 1% for the Planet. Craig shares firsthand stories of protecting public access at Three Dollar Bridge, restoring native trout, and why he believes anglers today must take responsibility - and step up - when it comes to protecting the waters they love. Whether you're a seasoned Yellowstone veteran or planning your first visit, this episode is full of hard-earned wisdom, humor, and inspiration from one of the true giants of the sport.Waypoints is brought to you by PatagoniaTo bring their gear to life, Patagonia is motivated by relentless curiosity and a passion for the wild.

Bob Baxley is a design leader who has shaped products used by billions at Apple, Pinterest, Yahoo, and ThoughtSpot. During his eight years at Apple, he led design for the online store and the App Store, and witnessed the iPhone's transformative launch while working under Steve Jobs. A student of history turned software craftsman, Bob discovered his calling after exploring photography, filmmaking, and music, ultimately recognizing software as the most powerful creative medium of our time. Bob champions the moral obligation designers have to reduce frustration in people's daily digital interactions.What you'll learn:• Why design should report to engineering, not product• The “Beatles principle”—why the best products come from teams of 4 to 6, not 40 to 60• How to create design tenets vs. principles (with real examples)• The counterintuitive reason to delay drawing or prototyping as long as possible• Why software is fundamentally a medium, like film or music (not just a tool)• Why Bob “bounced off the culture” at Pinterest, and lessons from failure• The lunar landing story that teaches us about championing radical ideas• How to evaluate if a company truly values design before joining• The moral obligation of software makers to build great products—This entire episode is

Sign up for Nature's Newsletter: https://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/newsletter/ Kris Tompkins has spent a lifetime fighting tooth and nail to protect wild lands. In 1993, she stepped down as CEO of outdoor apparel brand Patagonia, and moved to the edge of a windswept road-less fjord in the northern end of Patagonian Chile with her late husband Doug Tompkins (the founder of North Face). There, they began to dream up one of the most audacious conservation visions ever conceived. It would culminate, more than 25 years later, in the largest private land donation in history, the creation of one of the most spectacular national parks in the world and the launch of the wildest road trip on the planet: the Route of Parks. This story is about the realization of that vision.
Following the defeat of Nazi Germany in 1945 some of its most egregious war criminals sought to escape justice by fleeing Europe, most famously to South America. The escape routes they used, established by Nazi sympathisers, came to be known as 'ratlines'. The escaping Nazis had helped from an unexpected source; senior figures within the Catholic Church.The story of SS officer Walter Rauff exemplifies how these networks operated and the subsequent lives of the escapees. Rauff was responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people during the Second World War and was a key perpetrator of the Holocaust. After escaping to Chile, he would eventually come to work for the brutal Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet. There he would go on to inflict further miseries on the Chilean people. Rauff was never put on trial, but is it possible to obtain a different kind of justice for his numerous crimes?Philippe Sands, a renowned British-French lawyer and author, joins Dan to provide insights from his book '38 Londres Street: On Impunity, Pinochet in England and a Nazi in Patagonia', which explores Rauff's life and actions and the involvement of the Catholic Church.Produced & edited by Dougal Patmore.Sign up to History Hit for hundreds of hours of original documentaries, with a new release every week and ad-free podcasts.
