In this episode of Super Terrific Happy Hour, Steph and I return with our customary blend of easy-going banter coupled with a shameless plug and a sobering assessment of the global financial landscape. What begins with complaints about the cold weather and Seinfeld callbacks, as well as our upcoming live event in St. Petersburg, quickly turns into a candid examination of sovereign refinancing risks, leveraged corporate balance sheets, and a Treasury market increasingly supported not by central banks but by hedge funds and private foreign buyers. As short-term debt dependence grows and refinancing waves collide across governments, corporates, and AI-driven capex, we explain why we continue to sleep better owning gold—and why this moment feels less like a trade than long-term insurance for an unstable monetary age. Every episode of the Grant Williams podcast, including This Week In Doom, The End Game, The Super Terrific Happy Hour, The Narrative Game, Kaos Theory, Shifts Happen and The Hundred Year Pivot, is available to Copper, Silver and Gold Tier subscribers at my website www.Grant-Williams.com. Copper Tier subscribers get access to all podcasts, while members of the Silver Tier get both the podcasts and my monthly newsletter, Things That Make You Go Hmmm… Gold Tier subscribers have access to my new series of in-depth video conversations, About Time.

In the summer of 2000 while in labor with her daughter, Krista's heart stopped for eight minutes. Her soul transitioned to the afterlife where she experienced indescribable love, had all her life's questions answered, encountered spirit beings, and other beings who gave her the choice to return with the condition of sharing what she'd learned there with others. Using the knowledge she was given, Krista created Twelve Principles, which helped her reconnect with the essence of who she was in the afterlife, and embody it here, in this life. They enabled her to live as the love she knew herself to be. Her own transformation affected all those around her as well. Krista shares the Twelve Principles For Daily Living which are what she practices to realign herself with the divine love she was in the afterlife. When practiced on a daily basis, they truly have the potential to create a heaven on earth.BioKrista Gorman is a Physician Assistant who, only three weeks after graduating from her PA training program, suffered cardiopulmonary arrest and died while in labor with her daughter. During the eight minutes she was without a detectable heartbeat, her consciousness transitioned into what we call the afterlife, where she underwent a profound reconnection with a most Divine love that she experienced as the Universe. It is a love that we are seamless with, the love we are in our very essence.Krista is an active member of the International Association for Near Death Studies (IANDS) and presented at their 2014 and 2015 annual conferences.

This week's podcast kicks off with the 2003 murder case of a North Korean man in St. Petersburg, previously known as the “criminal capital” of Russia, and the unanswered questions surrounding his brutal death at the hands of a neo-Nazi group. NK News data correspondent Anton Sokolin then discusses North Korea's reaction to Russian Ambassador Alexander Matsegora's sudden death in Pyongyang, including leader Kim Jong Un's appearance at the diplomat's memorial service. Finally, Sokolin talks about the monthslong deployment of North Korean soldiers to Russia's Kursk region, where they were tasked with clearing explosives left by Ukrainian troops. The DPRK troops reportedly suffered nine fatalities during the deployment, with Kim heralding them for performing their duties with valor.

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1529"I think the biggest psychological crime is people fear running outta money instead of fear of wasting their life." - Bill PerkinsBill Perkins watched busloads of senior citizens arrive in St. Petersburg, Russia. Not a single person climbed the 115 steps to see the breathtaking view from the church balcony. They had the money for the trip, the time to travel, but their bodies wouldn't cooperate anymore. That moment crystallized everything he'd been thinking about how we get life backwards. We treat money like it's the goal when it's actually just a tool, one that loses effectiveness as our bodies and minds decline. Your body peaks at 33. After that, it's plateau and decline. Those hiking trips, those physical adventures, those experiences that require energy and health—they have expiration dates we refuse to acknowledge. We tell ourselves we'll do them later, when we're more financially secure, but later means weaker knees, less stamina, different limitations.Perkins talks about life in buckets, periods you'll never get back. Your twenties happen once. The years with small children happen once. Each phase has experiences designed for it, and if you miss them, they interfere with each other or disappear entirely. He uses a Tetris metaphor: imagine standing in heaven with God, throwing every experience you want into a bucket. Hiking, building businesses, raising kids, traveling to places that require climbing, all of it. God says you can have everything, you just have to get the order right. That's the game. That's what most people get catastrophically wrong. They're so afraid of judgment, so terrified of running out of money that they waste the periods of life when those experiences would mean the most, when their bodies could actually do them. This isn't about reckless spending. It's about understanding that your ability to convert money into fulfilling experiences decays over time, and no amount of savings can buy back the body you had at 33.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Våren 1863 var kriget mellan Nordstaterna och Sydstaterna långt ifrån avgjort. Det gick ändå att se vissa tecken på att kriget börjat luta över till Nordstaternas fördel. Det som brukar utpekas som vändpunkten i kriget är slaget vid Gettysburg i juli 1863.Sammanlagt omkring 170 000 soldater drabbade samman i det som blivit inbördeskrigets mest berömda slag. Förlusterna i döda och skadade var förfärande. Mellan 45 000 och 51 000 under de dagar slaget pågick. Av dessa stupade åtminstone 8 000.I detta avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden resonerar Martin Hårdstedt och Peter Bennesved om amerikanska inbördeskriget från slaget vid Gettysburg i juli 1863 till Sydstaternas kapitulation i april 1865. Efter nederlaget vid Gettysburg blev situationen för Sydstaterna alltmera desperat. Nordstaternas mänskliga resurser och industriella kapacitet visade sig överlägsen. Handelsblockaden mot Södern ströp tillgången på vapen och andra viktiga produkter.Trots att Sydstaterna var på defensiven i slutet av 1863 var kriget inte avgjort. Nordstaterna inledde en omfattande strategisk räd genom Södern ledd av generalen Sherman för att dela Sydstaterna, slå ut viktiga ekonomiska områden och ringa in sydstatsarméerna under Robbert E Lee i norr. Samtidigt belägrades Richmond och Petersburg och slutligen tvingades Robbert E Lee att kapitulera mot övermakten i april 1865. Då hade mer än 600 000 amerikaner fått sätta livet till och oskattbara ekonomiska värden förstörts.Södern lång i spillror. Inbördeskriget har ännu idag aktualitet för många amerikaner. Minneskulturen har i vissa delar av Södern levt kvar och frodats. Det så kallade ”lost cause”-rörelsen har stundtals levt upp för att lyfta fram Söderns kamp för att försvara sin rättighet. Samtidigt kvarstår den svåra frågan om slaveriet. Många uppfattar ett försvar för Söderns kamp som ett direkt försvar för slaveriet vilket väckt diskussion och starka reaktioner ända in i vår egen tid.Bild: Slaget vid Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, den 3 juli 1863, skildrat i en handkolorerad litografi av Currier och Ives. Bilden visar ett avgörande ögonblick under det amerikanska inbördeskriget, där nordstaterna till slut segrade efter tre dagars blodiga strider.

Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics: What is unique about the month of Kislev, and what lessons does it offer us? Yud Tes Kislev Why is this day the Rosh Hashana of Chassidus? Why was Chassidus revealed in the later generations? What is the difference between “before Petersburg” and “after Petersburg”? What do we learn from this day? Why was there a heavenly accusation against the Alter Rebbe for teaching Chassidus? Should we be afraid to say a dvar torah at the Shabbos table lest the heavenly court indict us? How do we explain the Alter Rebbe's analogy of Chassidus being like the most precious crown jewel being crushed to help save the life of the royal prince? How do you compare the Alter Rebbe's spreading of Chassidus to other Kabbalists who taught Penimiyus HaTorah? Why did they not face resistance? Is Chassidus based on the Zohar and Kabbalah or is something entirely different? Is learning the Tanya compared to having a personal yechidus with the Alter Rebbe?

Episode 3 of the Seven Summits Series takes us to the tallest point in Europe, Mount Elbrus. With first ascents on each of the two summits, both occurring in the 1800s, Elbrus' history is both lengthy and, at times, entertaining. Adrian and Sam dive into the details of a Mount Elbrus expedition, which includes so much more than just climbing. While Elbrus is well positioned for a strike mission type attempt due to its relatively low altitude (as far as high altitude goes) and significant on-mountain infrastructure, climbing Elbrus should most certainly include time exploring Russia. - Visiting both St. Petersburg and Moscow during your trip adds time, but they are crucial parts of the experience, and one city can be visited before and the other after you climb. - Elbrus is unique in the Seven Summits world in that it has significant infrastructure, including lift systems that are part of a ski area and snow cats that can take climbers as far as ~90% of the way to the top. Find the style of climb that suits you and gets you excited!- Like most of the Seven Summits, Elbrus can experience challenging weather, and while the route is often considered "straightforward" because Snowcats create a road, hazards such as crevasses should not be underestimated.

Russia has adopted a visa-free policy for Chinese citizens visiting the country for tourism or business purposes, a reciprocal move that is expected to promote the development of tourism, trade and exchanges between the two countries and contribute to their economic growth.俄罗斯对中国公民实施免签政策,适用于旅游或商务目的。作为一项互惠举措,这项政策预计将推动两国旅游、贸易及交流的发展,并为两国经济增长作出贡献。Russian President Vladimir Putin signed an executive order on Monday allowing Chinese nationals to enter Russia visa-free and stay for up to 30 days for purposes including family visits, business trips, tourism, and participation in scientific, cultural, sociopolitical, economic or sports events, as well as transit.俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京于周一签署行政令,允许中国公民免签入境并停留最长30天,适用于探亲、商务、旅游,以及参与科研、文化、社会政治、经济或体育活动等用途,也包括过境。The order, which took effect immediately, will expire on Sept 14, 2026.该行政令即刻生效,将于2026年9月14日到期。The news quickly went viral in China and several domestic travel portals reported a surge in search traffic for tour products to Russia.消息迅速在中国网络上引发热议,多家旅游平台报告称前往俄罗斯的旅游产品搜索量大幅增长。Travel agency Qunar said that searches for flights from Hangzhou in Zhejiang province to St. Petersburg increased more than threefold within the first hour, while searches for Beijing–Moscow flights surged 44 percent during the same period.旅游平台“去哪儿网”表示,消息发布后一小时内,浙江杭州至圣彼得堡的航班搜索量增长超过三倍,北京—莫斯科航线的搜索量也在同期激增44%。Li Yanqiu, 35, who lives in Beijing, said she and her husband have always wanted to visit Lake Baikal in Siberia as well as Moscow. In 2018, she made a short business trip to Kazan in western Russia and was impressed by the country's culture and natural landscapes.住在北京的35岁李燕秋表示,她和丈夫一直想去西伯利亚的贝加尔湖和莫斯科。2018年,她曾赴俄罗斯西部城市喀山短期出差,对当地文化和自然风光印象深刻。“Now is a good time to visit Russia again, this time with my family,” she said, giving a thumbs up to the reciprocal visa-free policy.“现在正是再访俄罗斯的好时机,这次我想和家人一起去。”她说,并为这项互惠免签政策点赞。Wei Changren, founder of btiii.com, a tourism-related financial news website, said two routes are traditionally popular among Chinese travelers to Russia: Moscow–St. Petersburg and Russia's Far East region. He said the visa-waiver policy will undoubtedly boost cross-border tourism.旅游财经网站劲旅网创始人魏长仁表示,中国游客赴俄的传统热门路线主要有两条:莫斯科—圣彼得堡,以及俄罗斯远东地区。他指出,免签政策必将促进跨境旅游发展。Putin's executive order is based on the principle of reciprocity.普京的行政令以“互惠原则”为基础。On Sept 15, China launched a one-year trial of a 30-day visa-free policy for Russian nationals with ordinary passports, covering business, tourism, family visits, participation in exchange events and transit. This policy also expires on Sept 14, 2026.9月15日,中国对持普通护照的俄罗斯公民实施为期一年的30天免签试行政策,适用于商务、旅游、探亲访友、参加交流活动及过境。该政策同样将于2026年9月14日到期。Inna Klochko, 53, from Vladivostok, recently spent a night at the Maple Leaf Village Hot Spring Resort Hotel in Harbin, Heilongjiang province. Since China's visa-free policy took effect, she has visited Harbin twice, enjoying the city's scenery, food and hot springs.来自俄罗斯符拉迪沃斯托克的53岁游客伊娜·克洛奇科近日入住了中国黑龙江哈尔滨的枫叶小镇温泉度假酒店。自中国免签政策生效以来,她已两次到访哈尔滨,尽享当地美景、美食和温泉。“I felt a sense of familiarity with the European-style architecture on Harbin's Central Avenue. I also tasted guobaorou,” she said. “But the highlight was the hotel's intelligent temperature-controlled hot springs and the unique ‘double-flavor hot pot pool', which made me want to return.”“在哈尔滨中央大街漫步时,那些欧式建筑让我倍感亲切,我还品尝了地道的锅包肉。”她说。“最令人难忘的是酒店的智能恒温温泉和独特的‘双味火锅池',让我非常想再来。”Previously, applying for a Chinese visa required more time and effort, Klochko said. “Now I just submit an electronic declaration via a mobile app, and I can pass customs in under five minutes.”克洛奇科表示,以前申请中国签证较为繁琐,“现在只需提前通过手机App提交电子申报,入境时不到五分钟就能通关。”In the past two months, Harbin Trip of Garden International Tour Co, a local travel agency, has received more than 400 Russian tourists — a 30 percent year-on-year increase.过去两个月,哈尔滨本地旅行社“哈旅国际旅行社”已接待超过400名俄罗斯游客,同比增加30%。“Most visitors come from Vladivostok and Khabarovsk,” said Wang Taixiang, the company's vice-general manager. “After arriving in Harbin, they often go on to Beijing, Shanghai, Xi'an, Luoyang or Zhangjiajie.”该公司副总经理王太祥表示:“游客大多来自符拉迪沃斯托克和哈巴罗夫斯克。抵达哈尔滨后,他们常会继续前往北京、上海、西安、洛阳或张家界等热门城市。”Zhang Jinshan, a tourism researcher at Beijing Union University, said China, which shares the longest land border with Russia, has a large outbound tourism market. Mutual visa waivers will greatly stimulate tourism and strengthen people-to-people exchanges.北京联合大学旅游规划与发展研究学者张金山指出,中国与俄罗斯拥有世界上最长的陆地边界,并具备庞大的出境旅游市场。互免签政策将大幅促进旅游发展和民间交流。He added that Russia's reciprocal visa-free move will not only boost tourism but also help revitalize industrial zones in Northeast China and Russia's Far East.他补充说,俄罗斯的互免签举措不仅能促进旅游,还将有助于振兴中国东北及俄罗斯远东地区的传统工业区。visa-free policy免签政策electronic declaration电子申报pass customs通关revitalize industrial zones振兴工业区Far East region远东地区

Ep 190 w/ Dave Seminara - Inside South Africa, Lesotho & Eswatini: Dave's Ultimate African Adventure GuideIn this week's episode, I sit down once again with writer, journalist, YouTuber and seasoned traveller Dave Seminara, who has just returned from an epic journey across South Africa, Eswatini and Lesotho. This conversation dives deep into one of the most fascinating regions on the planet, and Dave takes us right into the heart of it—through national parks, vibrant townships, mountain kingdoms and some unforgettable encounters along the way.We start in Cape Town, where Dave shares his experience navigating one of the world's most spectacular cities, from its dramatic geography and unpredictable weather to the realities of inequality and the history woven into its suburbs. He takes us for a raw and honest look at the Cape Flats, where he met community leaders working to interrupt gang violence and support local youth. It's eye-opening, powerful and adds an important layer to any understanding of South Africa.From there, Dave describes the magic of going on safari for the first time, including what it's like to stay on a restored luxury train in Kruger National Park, the thrill of spotting wildlife up close, and why safari is both the most rewarding and unpredictable style of travel. He shares practical tips on budget, expectations and what to do when your game drive luck runs cold. We also talk about the difference between national parks and private game reserves, the food (which sounds absolutely unbelievable), and the guides who bring the whole experience to life.Dave then takes us into the Drakensberg Mountains for hikes, ancient Bushmen rock art and one of the most unique lodge stays he's ever experienced. And of course, we cross borders into Eswatini and Lesotho, exploring the logistics, the culture and why both mini-kingdoms are absolutely worth adding to any Southern Africa itinerary.This episode is packed with insights for anyone dreaming of Africa, planning a first visit or simply curious about what travel looks like beyond the iconic highlights. Dave brings his humour, honesty and deep curiosity, and by the end you'll understand why this trip made him rethink his entire travel focus.If you enjoy the episode, please rate and review the podcast on your favourite app and subscribe on YouTube—every bit of support helps the show grow.

As Christians we can tend to get fascinated in learning about the end times which is a good thing. However, we can sometimes focus on the wrong things and instead we need to know what we are to do while we are waiting for the Lord's return. Paul tells us in 1 Thessalonians 3 what we are to do while we are waiting.
Wearing an armoured breastplate, clasping a silver cross and seizing an Army spontoon, 31 year old Elizabeth Petrovna appeared at the HQ of the elite Preobrazhensky Regiment guards in St. Petersburg on 25th November, 1741 - intent on over-throwing Tzar Ivan VI (a baby), and seizing the Russian throne for herself. Although she was the daughter of Peter The Great, she was also illegitimate, and overlooked in the line of succession. But her coup was bloodless, and she oversaw a productive cultural period for the dynasty - including her role in selecting Catherine The Great. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly recall Elizabeth's fondness for food, fashion and f***ing; posit that her husband Alexis Razumovsky was a bit like Dolly Parton's beau Carl Dean; and explain why, if you're staging a coup, you should always slit your drums… Further Reading: • ‘Elizabeth I, Empress of All Russia' (Unofficial Royalty, 2018): http://www.unofficialroyalty.com/empress-elizabeth-i-of-russia/ • ‘Decadent Facts About Empress Elizabeth Of Russia, The Last Romanov' (Factinate): https://www.factinate.com/people/empress-elizabeth/ • ‘St Petersburg Palaces of the Romanovs' (RT, 2021): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3LRMZfmAsU This episode was first aired in 2021 Love the show?

The Mortal Wound at Petersburg and the Appomattox Salute — Ronald White — Despite his Gettysburg fame, Chamberlain returned to combat, leading a brigade. At Petersburg in 1864, he sustained a near-mortal wound from a minié ball; two surgeons declared it would prove fatal. He miraculously survived without antiseptic or modern medical intervention. Later, he commanded the surrender ceremony at Appomattox, controversially offering a marching salute to the Confederates, honoring their valor.
Episode 166 Opal Weil Part 1 of 2 In January 1987, 82 year old Opal Weil was slain in her St. Petersburg, FL home. The crime scene reflected a burglary, with Opal's wedding ring pulled off her finger. Within a week, it happened again. Octogenarian Eleanor Swift's home, just 6 miles from Opal's, was burgled, she was killed, and her wedding ring taken. A third victim in the same month survived, but remembered nothing. The cases, quickly connected in the eyes of the investigators, went cold, despite a large number of suspects being considered. Hairs found at Opal's crime scene, distinct from her own, would prove to be the key to an IGG analysis, and a suspect was finally identified and arrested for her murder in 2023. But that is not the end of the story.

Danny and Derek welcome journalist and author John Lechner to discuss his book, Death is Our Business: Russian Mercenaries in the New Era of Warfare. The conversation cuts through the mainstream narrative of the Wagner Group to explore the true history of Yevgeny Prigozhin, from his start as a product of post-Soviet "gangster capitalism" in 1990s St. Petersburg to his ascent as Vladimir Putin's de facto military entrepreneur. They analyze how Prigozhin leveraged the Russian state's grand ambitions with limited resources to create a self-funding war machine in Syria and across Africa, ultimately turning his own military success in Bakhmut into a fatal political challenge to the decadent Moscow bureaucracy—a challenge that ended with a suspiciously accidental plane crash.
TikTok and other social media sites are full of mental health content—often short, grabby, first-person videos detailing symptoms for conditions like ADHD and autism. But what does this mean for teens and young adults who spend hours a day scrolling?A new study published in PLOS One analyzes the 100 most viewed TikTok videos about ADHD to assess both how accurate they are and how young people respond to them. Researchers found that about half of the videos were inaccurate or missing key context, and that the more TikToks young adults watched, the less critical they were of the content.For some, watching social videos about mental health conditions led them to better understand themselves and eventually get a proper diagnosis and treatment. For others it made them consider if they have conditions they don't meet the diagnostic criteria for.Host Flora Lichtman talks with the lead author of the ADHD TikTok study, Vasileia Karasavva, a PhD Student in clinical psychology at the University of British Columbia; and Dr. Jennifer Katzenstein, director of psychology, neuropsychology, and social work at Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital in St. Petersburg, Florida.Guests: Vasileia Karasavva is a PhD Student in Clinical Psychology at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada.Dr. Jennifer Katzenstein is Director of Psychology, Neuropsychology and Social work and Co-director of the Center for Behavioral Health at Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital in St. Petersburg, Florida.

What do Stalin, Trump, and Viktor Orbán have in common? They're all fragile men terrified of truth, artists, and of anyone with a moral compass. In this week's Gaslit Nation, we talk with 91-year-old Peter Hidas, who as a young student helped ignite the 1956 Hungarian Uprising, a movement born of courage and faith in a better world. Peter's story is a testament to what ordinary people can do when they refuse to bow to tyranny. The revolts that shook the Iron Curtain in 1956 laid the groundwork for the movements that would one day bring down the Soviet empire, to the unforgettable soundtrack of Swan Lake played on repeat on Soviet TV by a collapsing regime. Today, a new generation of brave Russians has reclaimed that symbol: the “Swan Lake Collective” is being played by artists on the streets of Russia, creating a rallying cry “Let the swans dance!” for peace, freedom, and the end of Putin's Fox News–style dictatorship. Gaslit Nation is here to remind you that Putin's days are numbered. This week's show also celebrates the heroes of the No Kings protests, the Gen Z meme pirates toppling corruption crime sprees pretending to be governments, how Trump and Putin might try to save Orban's doomed April 2026 election, and more. So keep marching. Keep creating.That's how we win. The song featured in this week's episode is “Election Day” by The Spiders.
