Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/791 Presented By: Pescador on the Fly, Patagonia, Mountain Waters Resort, Intrepid Camp Gear. Sponsors: Https://wetflyswing.com/sponsors On this episode, we sit down with Wesley Hodges, a decorated military veteran turned premier fly fishing and hunting guide in Virginia. Wesley shares the wild journey that led him from a cane pole in Texas to discovering fly fishing at a Boy Scout camp, to a life-changing decision made in a tiki bar in Ecuador. What followed was the creation of Virginia's first dedicated fly fishing and hunting lodge—an operation that now runs year-round across some of the most remote and productive water systems in the Eastern U.S. Right now, you'll discover why Virginia may be the "New West" for fly fishing, how to rethink your entire approach to trip planning, and the subtle techniques that make all the difference when targeting trophy Smallmouth bass. Wesley unpacks the essence of crafting full-circle outdoor experiences—one that fuses drift boats, dogs, wild trout, and grouse—all under one roof. Whether you're a seasoned angler or new to the game, this one is loaded with tactical gold.   Wesley with a Smallmouth Bass Show Notes on Smallmouth Bass with Wesley Hodges 1:13 - Wesley Hodges discovered fly fishing as a teen at a Boy Scout camp, but it wasn't until after his military service that he returned to the sport. That rediscovery led him to launch Virginia's first dedicated fly fishing and hunting lodge, where he now guides guests through some of the state's wildest rivers. 5:41 - After a transformative period living in Ecuador, Wesley Hodges returned to Virginia and launched a guiding business that evolved into the state's first true fly fishing and hunting lodge. Located in Eagle Rock at the confluence of the Cowpasture and Jackson rivers, his lodge now operates year-round with a full staff, offering multi-day fishing and hunting experiences across a vast, fishable watershed. Here for more information. 9:58 - While Virginia has trout, Wesley Hodges positions the state as a true smallmouth bass destination. With fishable waters nearly year-round—from March through Thanksgiving—he emphasizes that fly fishing is a tool for all species, and smallmouth are the primary focus across his guided trips. 11:34 - Wesley explains that smallmouth bass fishing in Virginia transitions from pre-spawn in early spring to a topwater-focused season from mid-June through early October. During summer, anglers throw frog patterns and poppers all day, targeting big fish in just 1.5 feet of water, only inches from the riverbank. 14:01 - Wesley emphasizes that the biggest smallmouth are often found just inches from the riverbank, citing an old rule: “one inch from the bank equals a 20-inch fish.” Subtle depressions and undercut edges create ideal ambush spots for fish feeding on crayfish, cicadas, and frogs, making precise casting near the bank both strategic and more engaging for anglers. 15:24 - Wesley and his team primarily use Blue Ridge drift boats for guiding, having moved away from rafts due to the boats' quiet, low-impact design, ideal for shallow Virginia waters. Built from durable UHMW material, these boats slide silently over rocks—minimizing fish disturbance—and come with exceptional on-site support, making them perfect for their smallmouth operations. 21:21 - Wesley leads summer topwater floats through Virginia's river systems, favoring evening windows from 6:00 to 8:30 PM when the smallmouth bite peaks. His team utilizes highly technical rigs—customized floating lines, 10 to 13-foot leaders, and lightweight crayfish patterns—to quietly target fish in low, clear water, where precision and stealth are essential. 24:45 - Wesley's team targets calm tailouts with floating lines, casting downstream close to the bank so flies reach the fish before the boat does. In these slow waters, they dead-drift subtle poppers for up to 20 seconds, drawing in large smallmouth with minimal movement and intense visual takes. 27:19 - Wesley and his team primarily use Boogle Bugs in size 4 for topwater—favoring yellow, white, and electric blue sliders or poppers depending on fish behavior. When bass grow picky, they switch to more subtle patterns like Mr. Wiggle Legs, observing how fish react and adjusting presentations based on subtle visual cues. 33:42 - Wesley shares that his guides typically float rather than anchor, covering 4 to 12 miles depending on water levels, through remote stretches of western Virginia rivers where development is scarce. With vast tracts of farmland and surrounding public lands like George Washington and Jefferson National Forests, anglers experience a true wilderness float, often without seeing another boat all day. 36:27 - Wesley shares that anglers from around the world, including Europe and beyond, are now traveling to Virginia to fish its wild rivers and experience its remote beauty. They've trademarked the phrase “Virginia is the New West” to highlight that the state's rugged landscapes rival those out west, with strong local efforts to keep it preserved. 38:46 - In addition to fishing, Wesley's operation offers a standout upland bird hunting experience focused on wild grouse and woodcock. His team has spent over a decade scouting remote Appalachian terrain to locate thriving bird populations rarely accessed by other hunters. 40:45 - Wesley's outfitting service offers popular turkey and upland bird hunts, with seasons spanning October to March for grouse and woodcock, and April to May for turkey. His cast-and-blast packages are highly sought after, often selling out early due to his expert-guided approach and deep understanding of Virginia's diverse terrain. 42:58 - Wesley's team regularly welcomes newcomers to hunting, offering educational experiences centered around wild game and conservation. Beginners are guided through the full process—from casting or dog-assisted upland hunts to cleaning and preparing the birds—without needing to purchase any gear upfront, making it accessible and informative. 47:00 - In spring, Wesley notes that anglers enjoy prime smallmouth bass and wild trout fishing as warming waters trigger aggressive pre-spawn feeding. This season also offers the chance to mix in a day of bird hunting before preserve seasons close in mid-to-late April. 51:33 - Wesley explains that anglers with personal boats can freely access the region's smallmouth waters via public launches. However, trout fishing on the Jackson River is more complicated due to King's Grant laws—some sections legally prohibit fishing, even while floating through. Because of this, he recommends hiring a guide to avoid potential trespassing fines, which can be severe. 56:38 - Wesley shared that in summer, his essential gear includes Chaco flip flops and Patagonia's natural fiber sun hoodies for breathability and sun protection. He also highlighted the Orvis Tippe boat bag and Helios rods, noting their beginner-friendly design that makes it easy to feel the rod load for more effective casting. 60:31 - Wesley emphasized that proper casting tempo and thumb positioning are crucial for fly casting success. He advises anglers to slow down their cast and lead with the thumb on both the back and forward casts, helping maintain control and avoid excessive wrist break, which can misalign the rod and fly line. 63:00 - Wesley emphasized that smallmouth bass are almost always willing to eat, especially if anglers present a crayfish imitation, which makes up the bulk of their diet. While known for their aggression, he noted they can also become selective, often requiring smaller flies and longer leaders in shallow, clear water to entice strikes. 67:00 - Wesley shared that he's been living full-time in his 30-foot Airstream, which he keeps parked at the lodge during the season and uses to travel for bird hunting in the off-season. From a third-party perspective, his deep appreciation for the Airstream reflects his commitment to durability, mobility, and comfort. This lifestyle choice complements his work as a guide and outdoorsman.   Conclusion with Wesley Hodges on Smallmouth Bass In this episode, Wesley Hodges shares expert insight into smallmouth bass behavior, fly presentation, and how subtle changes in river topography—like those shallow bankside ditches—can hold surprisingly big fish. He explains the legal complexities of Virginia's Jackson River, offers practical tips for solo anglers, and emphasizes the value of hiring a guide to avoid trouble. Wesley also reveals his must-have gear, from Chaco flip-flops to the latest Orvis rods, and explains why crayfish patterns are a reliable go-to when targeting smallmouth. From stealth casting tips to surprising shallow-water hotspots, this episode is packed with knowledge for serious anglers. What's the most surprising place you've ever hooked a big smallmouth bass?

¿Cómo se plasman las angustias de la época en una ópera donde la inteligencia artificial es protagonista?  ¿Y cómo la informática se encuentra a gusto en una partitura? Son algunas de las preguntas que surgen al explorar el universo de Javier Muñoz. El compositor chileno compuso una ópera inmersiva interactiva con un avatar concebido con inteligencia artificial en un mundo en donde la IA gobierna la humanidad. ¿Distopía o crónica contemporánea? Javier Muñoz Bravo estudió composición en el Conservatorio de la Universidad de Chile en Santiago, en Estrasburgo, París y en Ginebra. Sus obras, una mezcla de música instrumental con música electrónica, han sido presentadas en diversos festivales de prestigio y su trabajo recompensado con altas distinciones en ambos lados del Atlántico. Nacido en la Patagonia chilena, Muñoz Bravo mantiene una relación particular con la naturaleza, le sirve como "fuente de inspiración" que mira con ojos casi científicos. En búsqueda constante de su "propio lenguaje", puede pasar de un universo poético, como con su última composición para Radio France (la radio pública francesa), 'Borde de ataque', en la que pone en escena con saxofón y acordeón el vuelo de los insectos, a un terreno más angustiante. Con la ópera inmersiva e interactiva, 'Una temporada en el metaverso', el compositor cuestiona el papel del artista en un mundo de donde la Inteligencia Artificial gobierna la humanidad. Además, establece un diálogo entre dos personajes, uno de ellos es un avatar concebido con IA. Para Muñoz Bravo se trata a la vez "de una distopía y de un cuento contemporáneo".  La pieza sigue a un poeta mientras trata de convencer a la máquina de entrar al metaverso, un espacio prohibido a los artistas y a los poetas. Inspirada en parte por la experiencia de la pandemia, esta obra encierra a la audiencia en un mundo en donde los humanos han perdido todo contacto físico y existen solamente a través de las pantallas. Esta obra, que se experimenta en vivo, también surge de las lecturas del compositor: "Leí una novela de anticipación de un escritor irlandés de 1929  en la que ya hablaba de un mundo futurista donde todos los humanos vivían bien. Pero en una misma habitación del mismo tamaño y todos se comunicaban a través de una pantalla".  ¿Se puede vivir sin arte? A partir de esta reflexión, el compositor se pregunta "hasta qué punto los artistas pueden seguir participando en este mundo". Precisamente, en  'Una temporada en el metaverso' los únicos que no pueden entrar son los artistas, ya que "en esa realidad, la humanidad ya no necesita del arte, tiene lo necesario para subsistir, para vivir en armonía porque la Inteligencia Artificial ya les provee lo necesario. Inclusive la humanidad ya no necesita trabajar de la misma forma. Entonces, los artistas pueden provocar un caos en el sistema. Entonces es más fácil mantenerlos fuera".  Lo curioso de esta propuesta es que la voz está fabricada con IA y al mismo tiempo es una crítica de esta tecnología."Existe efectivamente una dicotomía. De hecho, es una ópera bastante particular porque no hay otros músicos tocando la escena. Hay solo dos personajes. Entonces tiene algo también de futurista en sí la ópera. Todo es un trabajo electrónico, pero en tiempo real". "Pero realmente quiero insitir en que nos preguntemos qué sucede si dejamos absolutamente todo el control de la humanidad a la Inteligencia Artificial. No es porque esté en contra la IA, al contrario." Para Muñoz Bravo, la IA es una herramienta más. Ya "la tecnología es muy importante en el trabajo de los artistas".   #EscalaenParís también está en redes sociales Un programa coordinado por Ana María Ospina, realizada por Souheil Khedir y Alice Mesnard.

In May of 2025 I found myself in a boat with a trout guy in search of warmwater fish. In this episode of The DrakeCast we throw poppers with Eric Johnsen, the community marketing manager at TroutRoutes, and discuss whether or not he is ruining flyfishing. Many thanks to Patagonia and their improved Swiftcurrent waders for helping make this possible. We'll be back in two weeks with another episode.

My guest today is Sava Riaskoff.Sava is a Performance & Wellbeing Coach, TEDxSpeaker, and Associate Professor at the ESADE MBA in Barcelona. Over the past seven years, he's worked with leaders and next-gen talent through 1:1 coaching, in-company trainings, and immersive retreats in Europe and Patagonia.His work is deeply shaped by his own journey — from following a path that looked right on paper but left him quietly burning out, to being forced to face some of the hard questions we tend to avoid: What do I actually want? And who am I really, when I stop trying to fit in or live up to other people's expectations?Today, he helps others explore those same questions — and navigate the uncertainty, self-doubt, and pressure that tend to come with choosing a new path or stepping into leadership.I met Sava through the kind introduction of Adela Warkentin (thank you, Adela!!).  This is a beautiful and inspiring conversation where we explore the intersection of emotional safety and authenticity or vulnerability.  What changes when we choose to be vulnerable and risk the unknown?  Ironically enough, as Sava shares… we find safety, despite it feeling so scary.Sava, thank you for jumping into the deep end of the conversational pool with me!  Thank you for choosing authenticity and vulnerability.  You are an inspiration!  Keep being you and adding such beautiful light to the world!!To learn more about Sava and the work he does in the world, you'll find links below: Sava's Website: https://www.inwardpath.comGrowth Week Retreats: https://growthweek.coWatch Sava's TEDx Talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WelzFFA0TMlinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/savariaskoffMake Life Less Difficult~ Support:buymeacoffee.com/lisatilstra

On this episode of Waypoints, we sit down with one of the most innovative and influential minds in modern fly fishing — the legendary Blane Chocklett. A pioneer in streamer design and the creative force behind the iconic Game Changer fly, Blane has spent decades pushing the boundaries of how we tie, present, and think about flies. From his roots fishing the rivers of Virginia to creating patterns that now travel the globe, his impact on the sport is undeniable. In this episode, we dive into the philosophies that drive his design work, the crossover between conventional and fly tackle, and how movement and action are everything when it comes to triggering aggressive eats from predatory species.We also dig into the stories behind the flies, Blane's guiding background, his travel experiences chasing exotic species, and the founding of his own fly design company — The Chocklett Factory. Whether you're a musky junkie, a trout streamer devotee, or a saltwater angler looking to breathe new life into your fly selection, this conversation is full of insight, creativity, and inspiration. Blane shares thoughts on conservation, mentorship, and what the future holds for innovation in the sport.

Yerba Madre is a brand nearly synonymous with its namesake ingredient. But in a country where most consumers have never even heard of yerba mate, a caffeine-laden herbal infusion native to South America, how do you build a household name around it? Guiding that vision is Ben Mand, who was named CEO of Yerba Madre in March 2024. Formerly known as Guayakí, the company has been pioneering yerba mate-based beverages since 1996, offering both loose-leaf and ready-to-drink formats. Today, the brand generates nearly $200 million in annual sales and is stocked in natural and conventional retailers nationwide. In this episode, Ben shares how Yerba Madre is evolving beyond its West Coast roots with a bold mission: to introduce yerba mate to the 96% of Americans who still don't know what it is. But this is about more than a beverage. Ben sees it as an opportunity to reshape how people think about clean, plant-based energy. He discusses the balance between visionary leadership and operational discipline, reigniting innovation, thinking like a founder, and scaling responsibly all while remaining rooted in the company's deeper mission: advancing regenerative agriculture in South America and building a brand that stands for purpose, authenticity, and cultural respect. Note: This episode was recorded during the breakdown of our BevNET Live Summer 2025 event and you may hear some background clatter. Our apologies for the occasional bang or boom. Show notes: 0:25: Interview: Ben Mand, CEO, Yerba Madre – Ben talks about the history of Yerba Madre and why its rebrand from Guayaki reflects its mission more clearly via a name that's more inclusive and easier for consumers to pronounce. He also highlights the functional benefits of yerba mate and emphasizes the company's regenerative business model that supports the environment and indigenous communities. Ben discusses Yerba Madre's consumer base, which is made up of primarily younger, health-conscious individuals who seek natural energy and live active lifestyles and how word-of-mouth and the simplified brand name help grow awareness. He also explains how the company is targeting convenience stores, natural retailers, and club stores to reach new consumers and how its innovation team is enhancing the brand's appeal by identifying trends and creating accessible, flavor-forward products that broaden the appeal of yerba mate. Ben also talks about how he leads with purpose and passion, using his humble roots to build company culture and why he views business as a key driver of positive social and environmental change.

How did 7,000 Nazis vanish post-war? Explore the Vatican "ratline" escape routes, Hitler's rumored plastic surgery, and the hidden Nazi tech traded to the U.S. for immunity. From buried bunker photos to declassified Mossad hunt files—the cover-up unravels.

Today we are joined by herbalist, adventurer and teacher Callie North. Born and raised on Lopez Island, Washington, Callie spent her youth engrossed in the nature of the Pacific Northwest. Her love of the outdoors and relationship with sacred plant medicine led her to open Northsea Apothecary in the spring of 2016. Shortly after, Callie got to spend 72 days living alone in the foothills of the Andes Mountains in Patagonia, Argentina as a contestant on Season 3 of the History Channel show Alone. She fished, foraged, and built shelter using what she could find around her. 

Charles Duhigg is the author of numerous books, including The Power of Habit, which spent over three years on the New York Times bestseller lists. His second book, Smarter Faster Better, was also a New York Times bestseller. And his latest, which hit the shelves last year, is titled Supercommunicators. Turns out ol' Charles also lives in my hometown of Santa Cruz, California, and the dude surfs! Who would've thunk? This pod was under an hour, and we covered a lot: the writing process, breakthrough communication skills, and, of course, surfing. I mentioned it in the intro, but if you're in LA on Friday, July 17th, stop by Patagonia Santa Monica. I will be doing a live reading of some travel pieces I've written over the years. Some take place at Mavericks, others profile unknown activists fighting for their local waves south of the border—all celebrate the radical act of riding waves. The reading starts at 7pm and earlier in the day, Patagonia's team will also be at the store fixing wetsuits for free. Event Details here.

Across the country in late June and early July, mulberry trees fruit, producing tasty berries enjoyed by humans, birds, and squirrels alike. You'll often see evidence of this on sidewalks in suburban neighborhoods stained purple by the fallen berries. But if these mulberry trees are hanging over water, fish are able to enjoy the fruits of their bounty as well. On today's episode we join guide Luke Annear of Freshwater Flats on an unnamed river in Southern Wisconsin in the search of carp and catfish. If you've ever wanted to catch a carp on the fly, and particularly on a mulberry fly, you can find Luke Annear on Instagram @freshwaterflats or on his website www.freshwaterflats.com. Many thanks to Patagonia and their improved Swiftcurrent waders for helping make this possible. We'll be back in two weeks with another episode.

Dive into a one-of-a-kind episode this week as I sit down with software industry leader and passionate fly fisherman, Tim Huckaby. Tim's career has led him to work with tech giants like Microsoft and hop on stage with legends like Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer, but it's his adventures on the river and in the wild that truly inspire him.

You can contact me here:  rick@ricksaez.com Show Notes What Happened: I didn't mean to create a world-famous fly. Honestly, I just wanted something that wouldn't fall apart mid-float. It started with a cheat. I jacked a foam-folding technique from Charlie Craven (legendary fly tier) and started riffing. I was fishing the Upper Kern, and those trout were demolishing grasshoppers. Like full-on buffet mode. So I tied up something massive—ugly from the top, perfect from below—and boom. The Kern River rainbows went nuts. I named it the Huck Hopper. Fast forward a few years: I'm fishing around the world. Behind guides' backs, I quietly swap in my Frankenfly. Next thing you know, they're demanding to know what it is. And I'm FedExing Huck Hoppers at 3 a.m. because some poor guy “needs ‘em for Patagonia.” I even spun up an e-comm site. “Nobody will buy them,” I thought. Wrong. Principle: Sometimes, what sets you apart isn't how polished your idea is—it's how deeply it solves a problem only insiders truly understand. Real traction often comes from obsession and imperfection—not slick branding or mass appeal. Transition: A lot of outdoor entrepreneurs and creators make the same mistake I almost did: thinking your thing has to be perfect or pretty before it's worth sharing. Or worse—waiting for permission. The truth? Your “ugly” prototype might be someone else's holy grail. That's why so many talented people stall out: they're waiting to be validated, to be “ready,” or for some guru to give them the green light. That's Why: That's why we brought Tim Huckabee onto the podcast—he's proof that your passion project doesn't have to be fancy to make waves. Whether you're into fly fishing, side-hustling, or building gear people actually want, this episode shows how relentless curiosity, a bit of rebellion, and a lot of river time can create something unforgettable. Call to Action (PAS-style): If you've been second-guessing your scrappy idea, overthinking every detail, or stuck in “not good enough” mode—this one's for you. Listen now to hear how Tim turned a back-of-the-boat experiment into a globally loved gear essential. Follow up with Tim: https://www.timhuckaby.com/

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. 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. Built with innovative materials, intuitive features and a refined fit, their Swiftcurrent® Waders are a better wader experience. Repatterned for bulk reduction, reduced seam stress, increased maneuverability and improved repairability, they move better in and out of the water, carry gear more efficiently and keep tools handy. They're made from recycled materials without intentionally added PFAS—toxic “forever chemicals.- Follow us on Instagram- Follow us on Facebook- Check out our YouTube Page- View the official Yellow Dog website ...

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.

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. To find out more about Alex and see his stunning photography, you can visit his website: https://www.alexgonsiewski.com/ or find him on IG: @alexgonsiewski Many thanks to Patagonia for making this episode possible.

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.

Ever wondered why you feel so alive in some places—and so drained in others?

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.

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

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.
