In this powerful, deeply personal interview, Tanc walks us through a life shaped by gang culture, prison time, cartel connections, near-death situations, and ultimately—transformation. From his early days in the California state system to navigating the dangerous world of cross-border drug trafficking, he breaks down how major operations moved product from Peru and Mexico into the U.S., what it was like coordinating “jumps” across the border, why warehouses sat full of hundreds of untouched bricks, and the razor-thin line between survival and disaster. He also opens up about fatherhood changing his mindset, the struggle to find legitimate work after prison, facing racism while trying to re-enter society, and how community college became the unlikely start of a new path. This episode dives into: -His final state bid and what made him leave gang life behind -How he became involved with high-level cartel operators -The logistics behind massive cross-border drug shipments -The paranoia, betrayals, and close calls that come with the lifestyle -The moment he knew the feds were closing in -How education and family pulled him toward a different life Go Support Tanc!

It's been almost exactly a year since we had Brien Foerster on the show, and we welcome him back to talk about his research in Egypt, attempts to date Puma Punku, and updates on his work on Elongated Skulls. Brien was born in Rochester, Minnesota, U.S.A. but grew up on the west coast of Canada. At age 11, he became fascinated with the Native art of the Haida native people, and began carving totem poles, and other related art forms, learning from Native teachers. After completing an Honours Bachelor Of Science degree, Brien decided to take up carving and sculpture full time, at the age of 25. In 1995 he moved to Maui, Hawaii, and was hired as assistant project manager for the building of the 62 foot double hull sailing canoe ( ancestor of the modern day catamaran ) Mo'okiha O Pi'ilani ( Sacred Lizard That Pierces The Heavens ) and the restoration of the famous Mo'olele sailing canoe. This project lasted 2 years. There, having learned how to make Hawaiian outrigger canoe paddles from master carver Keola Sequiera, he started an online outrigger paddle business, which flourished internationally. Peru became his next major area of interest. The study of the Inca culture led to his writing a book, A Brief History Of The Incas which is available on this site, and is now the assistant director of the Paracas History Museum in Paracas, south of Lima. He is also assisting the municipality of Paracas to improve the number of foreign tourists that visit, as well as is fundamental in expanding tourism in general, especially as regards showing all visitors the 10,000 years of human occupation of this area, through tours of major and minor archaeological sites. Other projects, which will result in published books, include one about the ancient history of Hawaii, the mysterious stone monuments of Peru that predate the Inca, and the search for the lost continent of Mu. This will require combining all that he has learned so far, with trips to New Zealand (Aotearoa), Hawaii, and Easter island (Rapanui.) He is the author of 8 books, appearances on Ancient Aliens, numerous radio interviews, and resides in Peru with his wife. Brien's webpage: www.hiddenincatours.com Hosted on Acast.

#249: Florida blueberry farmer Hugh Kent of King Grove Organic Farm shares the story of how corporate power and USDA negligence nearly drove his organic farm out of business - and how he saved it through direct marketing. Speaking at the Saving Real Organic conference at Churchtown Dairy, Hugh connects the dots between monopoly economics, antitrust failures, hydroponic loopholes, and the collapse of fair markets for soil-grown fruit. His talk exposes how imported, plastic-based “organic” blueberries from Mexico and Peru have replaced real soil-based farms in America - and what it will take to rebuild a fair, honest marketplace for both farmers and eaters.https://realorganicproject.org/hugh-kent-saving-real-organic-direct-marketing-248The Real Organic Podcast is hosted by Dave Chapman and Linley Dixon, engineered by Brandon StCyr, and edited and produced by Jenny Prince.The Real Organic Project is a farmer-led movement working towards certifying 1,000 farms across the United States this year. Our add-on food label distinguishes soil-grown fruits and vegetables from hydroponically-raised produce, and pasture-raised meat, milk, and eggs from products harvested from animals in horrific confinement (CAFOs - confined animal feeding operations).To find a Real Organic farm near you, please visit:https://www.realorganicproject.org/directoryWe believe that the organic standards, with their focus on soil health, biodiversity, and animal welfare were written as they should be, but that the current lack of enforcement of those standards is jeopardizing the ability for small farms who adhere to the law to stay in business. The lack of enforcement is also jeopardizing the overall health of the customers who support the organic movement; customers who are not getting what they pay for at market but still paying a premium price. And the lack of enforcement is jeopardizing the very cycles (water, air, nutrients) that Earth relies upon to provide us all with a place to live, by pushing extractive, chemical agriculture to the forefront.If you like what you hear and are feeling inspired, we would love for you to join our movement by becoming one of our 1,000 Real Friends:https://www.realorganicproject.org/real-organic-friends/To read our weekly newsletter (which might just be the most forwarded newsletter on the internet!) and get firsthand news about what's happening with organic food, farming and policy, please subscribe here:https://www.realorganicproject.org/email/

It's another round of Fully Loaded with GOLTV's Nino TorresWe look at one coach who shouldn't throw stones, the round of WCQ- and one guy who shouldn't be woofing, plus the weekend in South America and Europe with what to watch for...
In this bulletin, Australia's Climate Change Minister travels to Brazil for the final week of negotiations at the UN Climate Summit; a five-metre tall statue of Pope Leo unveiled in Peru; and in tennis, Alex De Minaur to face defending champion Jannik Sinner in the semis of the ATP Finals.
Peru faces severe political instability, evidenced by six presidents in two years and detentions for corruption. Transitional leader José Heresi is tackling rising organized crime, including a 36% jump in homicides, through a state of emergency. Meanwhile, China maintains deep-seated influence, controlling key sectors like mining, oil, and the deep-water port of Chancay. Guest: Evan Ellis.2/4
November's elections brought victories across the country for state and local Democratic candidates who pledged to address rising energy costs. The challenges of meeting those promises the incoming Governors of Virginia and New Jersey, and Mayor of New York, will likely face. Also, a recent report warns that the European Alps, Rockies of the Western U.S. and Canada, Iceland, and Scandinavia would lose nearly all ice at 2°Celsius of warming – a threshold we're currently on track to exceed. And in the Peruvian Amazon, the Asháninka people have developed a symbiotic relationship with the local bees, which often lack stingers, and their honey. A new and innovative law in Peru has granted these bees legal rights to help protect them and the indigenous people living with them. --- Federal funding for public radio has ended.

Cemitério de roupas usadas no Deserto do Atacama. Roupas descartadas por Estados Unidos, Europa e Ásia são enviadas ao Chile para serem revendidas. No imenso deserto do Atacama – no norte do Chile – na altura da cidade de Iquique – situada cerca de 1.800 km da capital Santiago. Sapatos, camisetas, casacos, vestidos, gorros, trajes de banho e até luvas para neve formam uma surpreendente montanha. São peças inexplicavelmente abandonadas em pleno deserto. É roupa descartada pelos Estados Unidos, pela Europa e Ásia, enviada ao Chile para ser revendida. Das 59 mil toneladas importadas todos os anos, grande parte (algo como 40 mil toneladas) não é vendida - acaba no lixo. A maioria fica nas cercanias de Alto Hospicio, uma comunidade com altos níveis de pobreza e vulnerabilidade. [...] Este paraíso das compras abriga um imenso parque industrial onde operam mais de mil empresas que comercializam seus produtos isentos de impostos. Seu lugar estratégico no norte do Chile - a poucos quilômetros do porto do Iquique - transforma a área em um importante centro comercial para outros países latino-americanos como Argentina, Brasil, Peru e Bolívia. Neste local estão instaladas ao menos 50 importadoras que diariamente recebem dezenas de toneladas de peças de segunda mão que depois são distribuídas por todo o Chile para revenda. O negócio é imenso e completamente legal. De acordo com o Observatório de Complexidade Econômica (OEC), uma plataforma que registra diversas atividades econômicas pelo mundo, o Chile é o maior importador de roupa usada na América do Sul, recebendo 90% desse tipo de mercadoria na região. [...] A roupa usada vem em sacos e as pessoas fazem uma seleção dividida em primeira, segunda e terceira categoria. A primeira é das melhores peças, sem defeitos, sem manchas, impecáveis. A segunda pode ter peças sujas ou descosturadas. Na terceira há produtos mais deteriorados. Os empresários deste negócio dizem que as peças de terceira categoria são, sim, vendidas (e que são descartadas 1% de tudo o que é importado). Mas autoridades locais dizem que grande parte acaba em lixões clandestinos. Sabe-se que ao menos 60% [do que se importa] é resíduo ou descartável e é isso que forma os montes de lixo.

Greg welcomes Eric Rankin from Awakening Code Radio to Inner Journey to discuss 3I ATLAS. The interstellar object 3I/ATLAS is a gift from interstellar space. It is large and relatively bright and it travels close to the ecliptic plane of the planets around the Sun and hence is observable for a long period of time by telescopes and cameras onboard planetary orbiters that humanity placed in this plane. Those are the basics, Greg and Eric dive much deeper into the world of spirit and science and their converging paths as witnessed with and through 3I ATLAS
Shakira BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Shakira's week has been a whirlwind of headlines spanning family drama, international touring, business innovation, and high-profile entertainment, crystallizing her status as both global pop icon and relentless entrepreneur. The rumor mill spun into overdrive when Catalan outlets claimed Shakira's 94-year-old father, William Mebarak, took a severe turn for the worse, alarming fans and sending social media buzzing with concern. Yet sources close to Shakira assured ¡HOLA! Magazine that these claims were exaggerated. Mebarak is not hospitalized but is instead comfortably resting at his Miami home, under attentive care. Shakira's calm is reflected in her decision to press on with her wildly successful Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran world tour across Latin America, suggesting the family situation, while delicate, is under control.Touring, however, has delivered its own mix of triumph and turbulence. Just days ago in Quito, Shakira wrapped up her Ecuador tour with what ISNA News called a “modest and subdued” concert, noting many fans left disappointed by the low energy and scaled-back production. This performance, according to ISNA and 24TV, highlights a trend of waning demand in certain markets: Ecuadorian authorities even canceled some planned shows citing tepid ticket sales and safety concerns, a rare hiccup for an artist accustomed to sold-out arenas. Concert industry analysts, including The Nation, nevertheless underscore her overall global dominance, noting she was just crowned Billboard's Global Touring Icon after her tour grossed historic numbers this year. Her next major stop is Estadio Nacional in Lima, Peru, scheduled for November 15.Balancing artistry with business savvy, Shakira is making headlines for teaming up with AIR Shop, a Moca Network project backed by Animoca Brands, to put Shakira concert ticketing on blockchain rails. According to a release via PRNewswire, this move lets fans buy tickets worldwide and earn digital rewards, marking a new era in real-world blockchain entertainment transactions and potentially reshaping ticketing industry standards.On the entertainment front, Shakira is captivating younger audiences as Disney just unveiled her new music video “Zoo” for Zootopia 2, where she also reprises her vocal role as Gazelle. The song, co-written with Ed Sheeran, is poised for a Disney+ and theatrical push, likely boosting her cross-generational appeal.Meanwhile, gossip sites like The Auto Wire report on Shakira's splashy Miami lifestyle upgrade: she reportedly spent around $15 million relocating her collection of luxury cars from Spain post-divorce, a story eagerly devoured by fans online.All told, even as one of her shows underwhelmed in Ecuador, Shakira remains firmly in the global spotlight, mixing music, business moves, family loyalty, and pure celebrity spectacle—her recent trajectory revealing both the risks and rewards of operating at the pinnacle of fame.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
On our honeymoon we joked, “Give it ten years.” Ten years later...kids, careers, and beautiful chaos; we hadn't fallen out of love, but we had stopped making time for it. Then came one intentional getaway: the kind that brings back the flirting, the laughter, the sunrise talks about everything and nothing. It was an honest look at how we'd drifted, and how easy it can be to find each other again.

Today, I'm joined by Gracia Sotomayor, an inspiring speaker, author, artistic cyclist, and graduate of The Big Talk Academy. Born in Lima, Peru, Gracia discovered artistic cycling through a magazine photo and was captivated by the concentration and control required. With no resources available in Spanish, she taught herself and eventually moved to Germany to master the sport. She has competed in the UCI Cycling World Championships and became the first person to translate the official rulebook into Spanish.

Time for our last installment of live interviews from Coffee Fest 2025. This time from Orlando, FL USA! We are talking with four awesome professionals about everything from training and tasting, Florida coffee culture and barista work - to career dreams coming true through hard work and faith, and empowering your baristas with distributed management! First we are talking with Claudio Martinez! For Claudio, coffee has never been just a drink, it is part of his soul, rooted in his family's 70-year heritage in Honduras. That connection was reignited in Thessaloniki, Greece, where, under the mentorship of Tony Sebastian of I Heart Coffee Roasters, he embraced the beauty, tradition, and community that coffee represents. His first hands-on experience came in a small drive-through coffee shop in Ellendale, North Dakota, owned by a close friend. As a young barista, Claudio discovered the joy of serving others one cup at a time. That spark guided him forward, leading to opportunities with global icons such as Lavazza, where he worked as a trainer and educator, and later with List + Beisler, where he shared exceptional coffees as a green trader with roasters across the country. Each step nurtured his gratitude and reinforced his belief in coffee as a bridge between cultures and communities. Today, as the driving force behind Golden Bush Coffee, Claudio channels that lifelong passion into supporting food and beverage communities throughout Florida and beyond. His mission is grounded in humility and purpose, guided by the belief that coffee is never just about what's in the cup—it is about people, stories, and the connections it creates.

Vanessa Jaramillo is the Regional Events & Operations Coordinator for Florida Coffee Culture, where she helps connect and celebrate the people behind Florida's growing specialty coffee scene. As a Colombian-American, Vanessa's connection to coffee began long before she became a barista — she visited origin before ever working behind a bar. After discovering specialty coffee in Australia during her gap year, she returned to Florida with a deep passion for community and storytelling. With three years in the coffee industry, Vanessa has immersed herself in every part of the craft — from cuppings and throwdowns to competitions and community events. She's driven by the belief that coffee is a universal connector that brings people together from all walks of life.

María Esther is the Co-Founder and Co-Creator of Coffea School, a Coffee & Tea Training Center located in Miami Gardens, Florida. Lawyer, with Master in Tax and Administrative Law. Q-Instructor. SCA Authorized Trainer in the entire Coffee Skills Program, from seed to cup. SCA-ReCo Fellow. SCA Technical Standard Committee Fellow, 2016-2018. CQI Q-Processing Professional. CQI Quality Evaluation and Post-Harvest Processing Assistant Instructor. CVA Program Trainer. Has traveled the world teaching about coffee: Venezuela, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, Ethiopia, United States. Passionate about coffee and the incredible relationships that growth in within. A sustainability believer, always willing to learn more.

In this week's episode of Not Alone, Valeria is joined by Gary for a fun, unfiltered, not-so-deep chat about the latest pop culture headlines, and a few real-life reflections along the way. Fresh off Valeria's dream trip to Peru, the two unpack everything from “Nobody Wants This” Season 2 and Kristen Bell's Instagram backlash, to Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's surprising split. They debate modern marriage, from separate bedrooms to taking your spouse's last name, and share their thoughts on chivalry, “the princess treatment,” and who should pick up the bill. Valeria challenges Gary on talking about pop culture (who proudly doesn't keep up) and why sometimes, it's okay to care about the “dumb stuff.” It's a light, honest, and hilarious peek into how two very different minds see love, fame, and everyday life.

Ospite del 183° episodio di Illuminismo Psichedelico - andato in scena dal vivo durante l'ultima edizione di Piante Maestre, a Milano - è stata la reporter e documentarista Sara Melotti. Con Sara abbiamo parlato di un suo recente lungo viaggio a Pucallpa, in Perù, dove lei ha avuto modo di entrare in contatto con la cultura locale e osservare da vicino alcuni dei paradossi legati all'ayahuasca e soprattutto ai contesti. Nella puntata abbiamo parlato del problema del turismo (che ha dei contro, intuibili, ma anche dei pro), dei centri che somministrano il decotto, del legame del cocktail amazzonico con la cultura locale, e quindi con la brujeria (ovvero la stregoneria), e del fatto che tutte queste cose hanno lati positivi e negativi, che abbiamo cercato di iniziare a osservare, per quanto possibile senza giudizio.

From letting go of past identities to navigating dating after a spiritual awakening, I share the lessons, messy moments, and magic that unfolded when I stopped forcing alignment and started trusting divine timing. I talk about the power of intuition, healing in new environments, embracing feminine energy, and finding peace in uncertainty.If you've ever felt like you're in the in-between—no longer who you were, but not yet who you're becoming—this episode will remind you that you're exactly where you're meant to be. Tune in for a cozy, honest conversation about alignment, manifestation, emotional healing, and learning to love the version of you that's still blooming.

Mark E. Scott | Author Sleeping At The Wheel In King of Peru, launching this month, author Mark E. Scott delivers a razor-sharp psychological thriller where a college student begins hearing a voice that isn't his own — but that of Lope de Aguirre, one of history's most ruthless conquistadors. Blending suspense, campus drama and the haunting echoes of history, King of Peru explores friendship, faith, and the fragile line between reality and delusion. Please refer to the press release below for additional information, and let me know if you would like to receive a copy of Mark's book for interview and/or review purposes. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Dark Echoes of History Haunt College Life in Mark E. Scott's New Book, King of Peru CINCINNATI, Ohio, Nov. 3, 2025 — Something dark is stirring beneath the surface of everyday college life for one young man. But what if the voice inside his head isn't madness — but history itself calling his name? In King of Peru, Mark E. Scott delivers a razor-sharp blend of psychological suspense, campus drama and historical intrigue as a college student confronts a haunting presence from the past. Matthew “Matt” Obrodnick, a former Marine trying to rebuild his life as a college student at Miami University in Ohio, begins hearing a disturbingly persuasive voice — the voice of Lope de Aguirre, a ruthless 16th-century conquistador who once tried and failed to seize power in Peru. Matt's friendship with his steady, chain-smoking roommate Thomas helps keep him grounded, at least until Lope's presence grows stronger. Matt battles delusions, paranoia and violent impulses. Meanwhile, Thomas turns to God — and the long-awaited return of his sister Renee — for solace. But when Renee and Matt form an unexpected bond, the fragile peace between the two roommates threatens to shatter. Blending raw psychological tension with historical echoes, King of Peru examines the voices that demand loyalty — from destructive delusions to divine faith — and the human struggle to find identity, belonging and love in the midst of chaos.

Are you struggling to retain top sales talent because your team members can't find meaning in their work? The secret isn't just about hitting revenue targets—it's about building a purpose-driven organization that attracts exceptional people and creates lasting value. In this episode, I sit down with Enrique Alvarez, co-founder and managing director of Vector Global Logistics, to explore how purpose and profit can coexist in high-performance sales organizations.

Climate Migration Is Inevitable: The Global South, the Four Horsemen, and the Necessity of Movement. Gaia Vince's book, Nomad Century: How Climate Migration Will Reshape Our World, examines the statistics warning that the climate of the near future will be dramatically different. Vince emphasizes that climate migration is "very much underway" and inevitable, highlighting the plight of Abel Cruz, a farmer in rural Peru who moved to Lima due to drought but became part of the growing global south slums. The phenomenon of the global south moving north is overwhelming, as the tropics are becoming dangerous and unlivable, compelling people to move to higher latitudes in the northern temperate zone, which are generally wealthier and better equipped to adapt. Vince refers to the primary threats that force movement as the "four horsemen of the Anthropocene": fire, heat, flood, and drought, which destroy livelihoods and property. 1956
