We're continuing our journey on the open road this month with a classic Disney movie released three decades ago. In this film, a father and son come to terms with the circle of life while realizing the importance of being prepared to face the challenges of a road trip. Far from meaning “no worries” for the son (who wants to feel the love tonight with his crush), the efforts of the father (who just can't wait to be king of the road) to reconnect with his son lead to a veritable stampede of sight gags, one-liners, and comedies-of-error. No, it's not The Lion King! Based on the Disney Afternoon cartoon series Goof Troop, produced by Jeffrey Katzenberg, and featuring the voice talents of Bill Farmer, Jason Marsden, Jim Cummings, Kellie Martin, and Rob Paulsen, it was a massive flop on release and was critically panned. But in the thirty years since, it has gone on to become a cult classic, with a direct-to-video sequel in the year 2000, multiple pop-culture references (including in Donald Glover's Atlanta), and a documentary, Not Just a Goof, released just this month. Ladies and goofs, it's A Goofy Movie! But will we be seeing it “I 2 I”?   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com   You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

Tara Christie, President and CEO of Banyan Gold (TSX.V:BYN - OTCQB:BYAGF) joins me for a thorough recap of the Company's 2024 drill program at the AurMac Gold Project in the Yukon. The program encompassed 21,000 meters and revealed high-grade gold zones at both the Powerline and Airstrip deposits. The Project already has a 7 million ounce inferred gold resource that was released in 2024.   Tara elaborates on the importance of these high-grade findings, the depth and size of these zones, and the overall strategy for using this data in the preparation of the PEA (Preliminary Economic Assessment). The discussion also includes Banyan Gold's future exploration strategies, focusing on both expanding existing resources and exploring new targets. Tara highlights the significance of market conditions, resource updates, and corporate strategies in advancing the project while also managing the Company's strong treasury.   If you have any follow up questions for Tara please email me at Fleck@kereport.com.    Click here to visit the Banyan Gold website.

Interview with Tara Christie, President & CEO of Banyan Gold Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/banyan-gold-tsxvbyn-16000-meters-drilled-and-funded-through-2025-pea-on-7moz-gold-resource-5945Recording date: 4th February 2025Banyan Gold Corp. (TSXV:BYN) is advancing its AurMac gold project in the Yukon, which currently hosts 7 million ounces of gold. The company's recent drilling program has successfully identified higher-grade zones within the proposed starter pits, highlighted by intercepts including 1.6 g/t gold over 32 meters between the Powerline and Airstrip zones.The company is working to earn 100% ownership of AurMac and must complete an updated mineral resource estimate and preliminary economic assessment (PEA) in 2025 to satisfy the final earn-in requirements. While some recent high-grade drill results won't be included in this update due to timing constraints, CEO Tara Christie views the upcoming resource update and PEA as an interim snapshot, with significant potential for continued growth.Christie believes the deposit could expand to 10 million ounces with additional drilling. The company's technical team is currently evaluating drill targets to identify areas with the highest probability of adding high-grade ounces and expanding the mineralized footprint.Banyan is well-funded for its 2025 activities, having deliberately conserved cash in 2024 during challenging market conditions. The company plans to continue aggressive drilling while advancing engineering studies beyond the upcoming resource update and PEA.Currently trading at a market valuation of approximately C$63 million, Banyan's valuation of $5 per ounce of gold in the ground represents a substantial discount to its peers, who trade at US$30-50 per ounce. The company's share price suffered a 50% decline in June 2024 due to external market factors, but with gold prices reaching C$4,100 and improving market sentiment, Banyan appears well-positioned for a recovery.The macro environment remains supportive of gold equities, with factors including rising geopolitical tensions, elevated inflation, and increasing central bank gold purchases. The mining industry's improved capital discipline and the scarcity of large, developable gold deposits in stable jurisdictions further strengthen the investment case for companies like Banyan.With existing infrastructure including power lines and roads on the property, a substantial resource base in a mining-friendly jurisdiction, and multiple near-term catalysts, Banyan offers investors exposure to a rapidly advancing gold project with significant upside potential. The company's upcoming resource update and PEA in 2025 could serve as key catalysts for a market revaluation.View Banyan Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/banyan-gold-incSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Reconductoring power grids to boost energy efficiencyThe expansion of renewable energy has resulted in a heightened need for greater transmission capacity of the electrical grid. Unfortunately, permitting and cost allocation have been large hurdles to the potential of rapid expansion to meet future demand. As an alternative, large-scale reconductoring of advanced conductor systems has been proposed as a solution. Such an alternative can double transmission capacity cost-effectively, without the need to ensure additional permitting. In order to achieve this transition, old steel power lines would be replaced with carbon fiber, reducing electricity loss and boosting the overall capacity of the power grid. How does reconductoring work?In order to achieve clean energy goals, it is vital that we increase power grid capacity. To briefly summarize, electrons travel along transmission lines between towers made of conducting elements and a strength member, which allows conductors to hang between towers. The most common type of reinforcement is ACSR, aluminum conductor steel reinforced, used in overhead electrical transmissions. ACSR is susceptible to degradation and breakage, which may lead to more frequent power outages and increased chemical runoff into the environment. As an alternative, ACSS has been proposed by researchers as it carries more current than ACSR and is supported at higher temperatures. According to recent studies by the Goldman School and GridLab, replacing power lines with advanced conductors would enable 90% clean electricity by 2035. The report revealed that reconductoring transmission lines could add approximately 65 TW-miles of new interzonal transmission capacity in ten years, compared to 16TW-miles from building only new transmission lines. In terms of pricing, implementing advanced conductors costs around 20% more than building new lines. Yet replacing old lines with advanced conductors is typically half the cost than building new lines for the same capacity, partly because you reuse old infrastructure and the new models are much more energy efficient. Further policy and legislation is necessary in order to drive this technology into the future and ensure proper permitting, funding, and planning. What are some of the benefits?Advanced composite-core conductors such as ACSS can carry double the existing capacity, operate at higher temperatures, and reduce line sag. Further, replacing the steel for a stronger yet smaller composite-based core can avoid the construction of new lines which bring about land acquisition and increasing permitting. There is already a growing movement towards reconductoring, as 90,000 miles of advanced conductors have been deployed globally. More advanced conductors also have the benefit of being cost-effective, with an estimated $180 billion in systems cost savings with more long-term structure. Advanced conductors enable a doubling of line capacity at less than half the cost of new lines. Alongside the benefits, at large, reconductoring can play a pivotal role in low-cost decarbonization of power systems.What are some of the drawbacks?Amidst the potential advantages are obstacles that may impede the future progress of reconductoring. First, there is a lack of awareness. Conventionally, the only way to expand the grid capacity has been to build new lines. Utilities are not aware of the existing solution and often fail to take reconductoring into account. Alongside this is a lack of experience and misconception that implementing reconductoring lines is difficult and unrealistic. As there is a lack of incentives for utilities to improve their products, cheaper solutions are not enticing for their rate of return regulation. Particularly if reconductoring only occurs in localized areas as opposed to system-wide implementation, the benefits may be limited. Thus, government prioritization of this new solution is critical in order to boost conductor efficiency.About our guestUmed Paliwal is a senior scientist at the Center for Environmental Public Policy and the Goldman School of Public Policy at UC Berkeley.

This wide-ranging, round-robin format episode begins with celebrating the end of “Dry January” (which we, um, didn’t much observe), mockery of Bernie Sanders’ obsession with “onesies,” a brief account of a Steve roadtrip to Villanova University, and a declaration of war against the Commentary podcast. (It’s serious: it involves McRibs.) After we clear away this […]

The 3WHH bartenders raise their glasses high for the first 100 hours of Trump II, which bid to replace FDR’s famous “Hundred Days” for breathtaking executive action. You’d think that this is Trump’s first term, and metaphysically, Steve argues, it is. In just the way we’ve come to expect of Trump in all things, he […]

Nothing “jejune” about this edition, except perhaps for the first-ever use of “jejune” in a podcast, but it is the perfect term to describe Joe Biden’s “farewell address,” which, aside from its jejune content, is a most welcome sound, since he will be gone in about another 48 hours, never to be heard from again […]

With this episode the Three Whisky Happy Hour emigrates into its very own identity on Ricochet and Steve’s new group Substack, “Political Questions,” but not to worry—the old Power Line Show will live on in its old format as an interview show. The 3WHH, meanwhile, is rebooting with some new formats. We’ll be doing some […]

Since so many of our fellow conservative podcasts are taking the holidays off, we decided to do another special mid-week edition to observe the new year, and gear up for some changes. Last year’s end of year show featured some low-probability but plausible predictions for 2024 (inspired by the late Wall Street guru Byron Weins’ […]

Our final podcast of 2024 looks back on the top story and bottom story of the year, and you won’t be surprised to see some symmetries in our answers. But then we move on to the main event—a question from a listener (initials RW) about whether the 14th Amendment, rightly understood, actually permits the federal […]

We were going to take up the transcendent matters appropriate for the climax of Advent, but the headlines won’t let us! The dam started breaking this week about Joe Biden’s unfitness for office, which, as the Wall Street Journal reported, began during the 2020 campaign. Just who has been president for the last four years? […]

This special mid-week holiday edition of the 3WHH makes up for the lost ground over the weekend, when schedules prevented the bar from opening at any of the usual meet-up times. Steve, this week’s host, and Lucretia grill John Yoo about his latest article, “Globalization’s Challenge to American Constitutionalism,” published at the sparkling new website […]

So your three bartenders weren’t able to assemble even virtually this week for our usual format—John is away on a clandestine mission stalking the elusive McRib, while Steve and Lucretia are also largely indisposed. But fear not! We decided that in lieu of our usual snappy brickbats, we’d share with our insatiable fans the talks […]

The Three Whisky Happy Hour gang is finally all back in the U.S. after weeks of galavanting overseas, and boy is there a lot to catch up on. Among our topics this week are the signs and wonders that the Age of Trump is fully established; the Biden pardons; the farcical Penny trial; whether World […]

Two-thirds of the 3WHH crew were back home in the states for Thanksgiving, while Steve is still galavanting around coastal Italy, defiling the reputation of this podcast by drinking Negronis at happy hour—a tergiversation that this week’s host, John Yoo, does not let pass without censure. In any case, by the miracle of Zoom we […]
