Extreme Genes - America's Family History and Genealogy Radio Show & Podcast
Host Scott Fisher opens the show with David Allen Lambert, Chief Genealogist of the New England Historic Genealogical Society and AmericanAncestors.org. In Family Histoire News, David updates us on the long-running War of 1812 Pension digitization project. Then, hear about how authorities finally figured out what happened to the man who, when he was 16, murdered his parents in 1958 and later escaped from prison. The story involves DNA… and has a twist! The guys then talk about a World War 2 vet who just started having nightmares from his experiences… at age 99! Smithsonian is carrying an interesting story about steamboat racing in the 19th century. The guys explain. Then, David talks about a strange place that is (essentially) named Hill Hill Hill Hill. He'll tell you where it is and why it is called that. Next, Crista Cowan joins the show from Ancestry.com. Crista and Fisher talk about artificial intelligence, how she's using it, the possibilities she envisions, and (surprise!) the fact you've likely already been using it. Ryan Rockwood then joins the show. He is a Project Manager for sponsor Legacy Tree Genealogists, specializing in Asian research. Hear Ryan's remarkable story of a Japanese man that settled in Texas over a hundred years ago that tied all his studies together back in college, and how he researched him. David then returns for Ask Us Anything. That's all this week on Extreme Genes, America's Family History Show!
Preston Goodwin is an Air Force veteran, having served in Electrical Power Production, as part of the Air Force's Civil Engineering arm, and as a Military Training Instructor turning civilians into Airmen. After an accomplished military career, Preston decided to take his talents back to the civilian side and became a Project Manager overseeing some huge construction projects throughout Texas. We looked back at our time in Basic Military Training and discussed the ups and downs, lessons learned, and many memories from an extremely stressful time in both of our military careers.
In this podcast we cover: Why we appreciate the pioneering done in lean manufacturing. Why we can now take it from here. Construction is a much more difficult environment to implement lean.

Immers Space implements the ActivityPub open standard in order to add a federated social graph to the open Metaverse. I had a chance to try a prototype back in December 2022 where I went from a modified Mozilla Hubs WebXR space (that had the Immers Space open source tools integrated into it) into a FrameVR.io WebXR space by clicking on a persistent interface tracking my connected friends. Just as many virtual worlds allow you join in your friends, this method starts to add a distributed social graph to the open web and therefore the open Metaverse using the ActivityPub standard... I had a chance to unpack it all with William Murphy, who is part of the Immers Space worker cooperative and social.coop Mastodon instance run on the principles of Platform Cooperativism as well as Gabe Baker, who is the Project Manager for the FrameVR.io team working on a browser-based 3D and communication platform. Many of the most compelling social VR experiences and communities are still locked behind walled gardens, but this is one of the more robust efforts to start to build some of the required foundations to have a distributed social graph across the open Metaverse.

Rob Stewart is the leader of Swansea Council, and has spent the last two decades forging a highly successful career in politics and business. In this episode, Rob joins Jeannette to talk about what it means to represent people in the political arena, why mindset matters so much when it comes to leadership, and the practical business lessons both learned and implemented that have turned him into a leader to be admired. KEY TAKEAWAYS The ones who get things done and place themselves as effective leaders, are those who always have a "can do" attitude. If you're negative about your prospects, you're doomed to fail. The pervasive image in the business world is that politicians do not understand their concerns. Coming from a business background himself has given Rob a real advantage. Planning requires something of a reform. Swansea is spearheading this shift in order to allow more businesses to put their mark on the city. Never discount the value that private enterprise can bring to an environment. Most companies are eager to improve their surroundings, which returns vitality for everyone. BEST MOMENTS 'We've taken the hard yards. Now we need to do it at scale' 'I've tried to bring a can-do attitude' 'This isn't something you do lightly' 'Difficulty comes from inconsistency in thinking' This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life. It's never too late to be BRAVE and BOLD and unlock your inner BRILLIANCE.

Marco has studied Viticulture at the Wine Science course of the Auckland University and he set up a small vineyard in his property where he is currently producing Nebbiolo and Pinot Grigio grapes.
