Podcast appearances and mentions of Queen Mary

What happens when you stop chasing finish lines and start chasing experiences? In this episode of Run the Riot, I sit down with Josh Sprague, founder of Orange Mud, for a conversation about ultrarunning, adventure racing, hydration, fueling, gear, strength, and why our relationship with endurance sports can change over time. Josh started Orange Mud after getting frustrated with the hydration options available to endurance athletes. His philosophy was simple: innovation from frustration. If he couldn't find the gear he wanted to use, he'd build it himself. That same willingness to experiment has followed Josh through hundreds of endurance events, including ultramarathons, adventure races, triathlons, mountain bike races, gravel events, and multi-day adventures. We get into some practical stuff every ultrarunner can use. Josh shares why he developed a habit of drinking every 15 minutes, how he measures exactly how much fluid he's getting from a hydration bladder, why he tests different flavors of the same nutrition product, and why he'll intentionally train with warm fluids before a hot race. We also talk about training your gut for ultra racing. Josh has learned the hard way that race day isn't the time to suddenly start eating everything that looks good at an aid station. If you plan to eat quesadillas, pizza, pickles, or other real food during your ultramarathon, you'd better find out during training how your stomach handles it. Of course, Josh also tells one of my favorite fueling stories I've heard in a while: carrying a Meat Lovers pizza around during an adventure race and eventually using it to fuel a charge up and over a mountain. But my favorite part of our conversation may be what happens when we move beyond training and racing. After years of chasing bigger distances and checking races off his list, Josh has found himself wanting something different. He wants to experience the adventure. We talk about the pressure of Strava, skipping time with friends because the training plan says you need to do intervals, stopping to look for arrowheads, and learning that not every run needs to produce an impressive number. Josh even tells the story of running right beside the Queen Mary during a race without ever noticing the enormous ship. There's probably a lesson in there for all of us. Don't get so focused on the finish line that you miss where you are. We also talk about Josh's simple challenge of completing at least 500 push-ups every week. What started as a small goal has now lasted more than a year, and Josh believes the added strength has made a noticeable difference in his running, cycling, paddling, and overall health. And somewhere along the way, we manage to talk about copperheads, Taco Bell, gas-station food, pickles, a 100-mile bike ride that was supposed to be 30 miles, and an incredible experience Josh had with his late golden retriever, Lady, during a 720-mile bike race. It's a fun conversation with a guy who understands that sometimes the best adventures are the ones that don't go according to plan. In This Episode How Josh started Orange Mud Innovation from frustration Adventure racing and ultrarunning Drinking every 15 minutes during endurance events Measuring your hydration rate Sodium and electrolytes for long races Training your gut for race-day nutrition Liquid calories versus real food Pizza as adventure-race fuel Why pickles can be so good during an ultra Josh's favorite trail race His incredible experience with Lady during a 720-mile bike race Competing versus experiencing The Strava trap Staying adventurous as we get older Josh's 500-pushup-per-week streak Why ultrarunners need strength training Connect with Josh Orange Mud:https://www.orangemud.com/ Run the Riot Coaching Have a big ultrarunning goal but aren't sure how to put all the pieces together?

Something lifted out of Horseshoe Lagoon on a north Queensland banana farm in January 1966, and what it left floating on the surface was still there days later when the reporters, the air force, and ufologists arrived to investigate it.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/TullyNestAffairREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/2tuf57reFEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Something strange happened in 1966 Australia. Lights in the skies, sightings of saucer shaped objects, and the start of what eventually came to be known as crop circles. It's a mystery that still lingers today, and it appears to be a kind of catalyst for so many similar oddities to follow. (The Tully Nests Affair) *** When you think of the most deadly, man-killing animals in existence, you might think of the big cats, or alligators, or sharks… but don't be too quick to dismiss birds as dealers of death. (Death-Dealing Fowl) *** It's one of the world's most haunted places… it is a ship that you can now book a room in as a hotel. We'll look at the very haunted Queen Mary. (The Haunted Queen Mary) *** The result of an accidental pregnancy finds out later in life he might be the son of a demon. (Son of the Demon) *** Most every item I bring to you here in Weird Darkness is going to have taken place in history – and most all of them you hear are going to be unnerving, or even horrifying… but there are some particularly macabre moments in history that stand out among the others. Most of which you've probably never heard of.

Who's going to spend 5 hours at the DMV for no reason? Ally and Jake scored the lowest on the DMV written test which resulted in a physical driving test with a certified instructor to determine the official loser. We listened to audio of both Ally and Jake's test and we even heard from Juan the driving instructor himself, who delivered the final results live on the air. A while back during Bet your Fet we heard from an anonymous caller who enjoys putting gummy worms in his girlfriend's hoo-ha during sex. Today, we heard from him again, and he had big news: he got engaged! After pleasuring his girlfriend gummy-worm style on the Queen Mary, he popped the question in a very graphic, very NSFW way. Continuing on the vagina-train, we also did a lady parts-themed Johnny Doesn't Know, where we got some very graphic drawings from Johnny trying to demonstrate the labia minora and majora. We also settled a big internet question 'how many times does the average person fart in a day?' during Clickbait.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: April, 2021This episode of Weird Darkness turns to Los Angeles, the City of Angels, and the almost overwhelming number of ghosts, haunted hotels, and occult history hiding behind its glamour, from the Magic Castle and the Cecil Hotel to the sex-magick rocket scientist Jack Parsons, cult leader Father Yod, and the ghosts of Griffith Park.It opens inside Hollywood's Magic Castle at 7001 Franklin Avenue, the private clubhouse of the Academy of Magical Arts, where the Houdini Séance Room honors a magician who spent his career trying to debunk spiritualism and left his wife Bess the code phrase "Rosabelle, believe" for contact from the afterlife. The castle carries the story of Irma, the piano-playing ghost said to have died in 1932 and returned to the mansion built in 1909 by Rollin B. Lane, along with the ghost of magician Dai Vernon near his favorite seat in the Palace of Prestidigitation, the unidentified girl in the Haunted Cellar, and a Halloween 2011 fire that started at the exact time of Houdini's 1926 death and gutted the Dante Room while sparing the Houdini Room.From there the episode checks into the haunted hotels of Los Angeles, beginning with the Knickerbocker, which opened in Hollywood in July of 1929, hosted Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio on their honeymoon, and staged Bess Houdini's tenth and final rooftop séance the night an isolated thunderstorm struck the building alone. It moves through the Ambassador on Wilshire Boulevard, where Robert F. Kennedy was gunned down by Sirhan Sirhan in the kitchen on June 4, 1968, the Rosslyn Annex with its forgotten Prohibition speakeasy, the Alexandria and its bricked-off phantom wing, the Biltmore where Elizabeth Short, the Black Dahlia, was last seen before her 1947 murder, and the Cecil Hotel, home to serial killers Richard Ramirez and Jack Unterweger and the site where guest Elisa Lam was found dead in the rooftop water tank in 2013 after guests complained the water tasted strange.Next the episode traces L.A.'s long history of the occult, running from Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard and his early Pasadena partnership with rocket scientist Jack Parsons, who performed the "Babalon Working" ritual and later died at 37 in a home laboratory explosion, to Charles Manson and the Family murders of August 1969 that killed Sharon Tate and six others, Carlos Castaneda and the Yaqui shaman Don Juan Matus who launched the New Age movement, and Jim Baker, the marine turned messiah Father Yod, who took fourteen wives and led the Source Family from a Hollywood Hills mansion. It covers avant-garde filmmaker Kenneth Anger and the witch Marjorie Cameron, the 1920 LAPD raid on the Mazdaznan sun-worshipers, the love-cult of Edith Maida Lessing at Mount Helios, the Devil's Gate Dam in Pasadena, and the curse Petronilla Feliz laid on the land that became Griffith Park.The episode closes with a tour of famous L.A. ghosts: the more than one hundred jumpers off Pasadena's Colorado Street "suicide bridge," including Myrtle Ward, whose daughter survived the fall; the body parts Marines found in a freezer at the abandoned Rancho Los Amigos hospital in 2006; picnic table number 29 in Griffith Park, where a couple was crushed by a falling tree in 1976; Bela Lugosi's hearse drifting past his favorite cigar shop; the many spirits of the Queen Mary docked in Long Beach; the unsolved 1929 deaths of Ned Doheny and Hugh Plunkett at Greystone Mansion; the ghost of Superman actor George Reeves; and Bob Baker, still haunting his marionette theater alongside the dead puppeteers who worked there.

The Queen Mary already has a reputation for being haunted, but at five years old, she didn't know anything about ghost stories.To her, it was just a giant ship full of strange hallways, crowded rooms, and people everywhere. But almost immediately, both she and her grandmother noticed something that didn't seem right.First, there was the sharply dressed man sitting alone in the restaurant that nobody else appeared to notice. Then came the little girl in the white dress.At the time, none of it seemed frightening. In fact, the little girl seemed to want to play. But years later, looking back on that day, she realized there was something deeply wrong about both encounters… especially the way her grandmother reacted once she understood exactly what they had seen.#RealGhostStories #QueenMary #HauntedShip #ParanormalPodcast #GhostStories #HauntedQueenMary #TrueGhostStory #ChildGhost #ParanormalEncounter #GhostsOfThePastLove real ghost stories?

We are diving headfirst into your haunted evidence this week and let's just say… you delivered. From crystal-clear ghost photobombs in broad daylight to EVPs that feel highly intentional, we explore chilling proof that the paranormal is not just lurking, it's interacting. Evidence includes: A photo from the Stanley hotel, where a listener captured what appears to be a full-bodied figure of Mr. Stanley himself photobombing on a staircase in the middle of the day. A photo from a haunted tour appears to show a crouching, almost inhuman figure lurking between volunteers in the darkness. Security camera footage of what looks like a ghostly child sprinting across a yard, appearing and disappearing mid-frame as nearby lights flicker. An EVP recorded on the Queen Mary that responds directly to a listener, sounding like a child gently asking “are you okay” after she says she feels tense. Photos from Waverly Hills show a figure manifesting from disembodied feet into a full shadowy person standing among a tour group. Watch the video version here. Have ghost stories of your own?

Tonight's guest, Scott, calling in from Arizona, shares a series of events that began with a close-range UFO sighting in 2010. While driving through Playa Vista in Los Angeles with his wife, Scott witnessed a massive, silent object hovering just overhead. As they passed beneath it, two dark helicopters approached before the object pulsed with light and shot straight up into the sky. A week later, the experience became more personal, with Scott recalling a brief moment of awareness as he was returned to his bed and what he believes was telepathic communication. Not long after, a final disturbance inside his apartment left both him and his wife shaken.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/2026-2/One Life | One Story (Promo)A podcast about real people's lives, each episode centers on a single person and a defining experience,Listen on all podcast apps: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5EE7HbNItkQQbJdtZCHt88Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/one-life-one-story/id1861678226Spreaker:https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/one-life-one-story--6823002If you enjoy this podcast, please support the show with a virtual coffee:https://ko-fi.com/ufochroniclespodcastFollow and Subscribe on X to get ad-free episodesX: https://x.com/UFOchronpodcast/Want to share your encounter on the show?Email: UFOChronicles@gmail.comOr Fill out Guest Form:https://forms.gle/uGQ8PTVRkcjy4nxS7Podcast Merchandise:https://www.teepublic.com/user/ufo-chronicles-podcastHelp Support UFO CHRONICLES by becoming a Patron:https://patreon.com/UFOChroniclespodcastAll Links for Podcast:https://linktr.ee/UFOChroniclesPodcastThank you for listening!Like share and subscribe it really helps me when people share the show on social media, it means we can reach more people and more witnesses and without your amazing support, it wouldn't be possible.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/ufo-chronicles-podcast--3395068/support.

In this episode we answer emails from Dustin, Optimus Bill, Vaibhav, and Morrie.  We discuss how to vet a new "shiny object" ETF, why trying to "fix" target date funds is likely to be a fools' errand as their proper use is extremely limited, and transitioning into a retirement drawdown portfolio without obsessing over recent market highs. In our Queen Mary segment, we also provide a Fairfax CASA fundraiser update and explain how your donations support foster care advocacy.Links:Fairfax CASA Donation Page:  Donate - Fairfax CASAMorningstar Analysis of LCOW:  LCOW – Portfolio – Pacer S&P 500 Qul FCF Aristocrats ETF | MorningstarBreathless AI-Bot Summary:A slick email promises “Quality” and “Aristocrats,” a backtest says it beat the market, and suddenly you are wondering if your portfolio is missing a magic ingredient. We slow that moment down and show you how to think like a process-driven investor instead of a headline-driven one. Starting with a listener question about a brand-new ETF, we walk through a simple evaluation method using Morningstar: check the expense ratio, identify the fund category, inspect the holdings, and compare it to cheaper index funds. The punchline is not about one ticker symbol, it is about learning to spot shiny-object marketing before it steals your time and returns.From there we tackle a bigger theme: why so much financial media is engineered to keep “Level 2” investors chasing opinions and hopping from strategy to strategy. We talk about data mining, why a 10 to 15 year backtest can be deeply misleading, and what you should demand before believing any performance story. If you care about long-term portfolio design, the right order is asset allocation first, fund selection second, with low costs as a default unless something is truly different.We also answer questions on target date funds, accumulation versus decumulation, and how real retirement planning gets messy across pre-tax, Roth, HSA, and taxable accounts. Finally, we address a common retirement fear: investing when “the market is high.” We explain why diversification changes that question, how different assets can carry the load at different times, and how to schedule a transition plan if moving all at once feels hard.Subscribe for more no-nonsense portfolio talk, share this with a friend who keeps getting pitched “new” ETFs, and leave a review if the framework helps. If you can, donate to Fairfax CASA and help provide a steady advocate for children in foster care.Support the show

In this episode we answer emails from Jose, Luc and Sara.  We discuss using specific tax lots to reduce capital gains when reallocating, how the 0% long-term capital gains bracket works and why many land in the 15% bracket, where to hold gold like GLDM across IRAs and taxable accounts, turning off dividend reinvestment to simplify moves and build retirement cash, replacing total bond and international bond funds with Treasury funds like VGIT and VGLT,, why diversification and value exposure can improve safe withdrawal rate odds, supporting and encouraging college-age kids with clear expectations, and tools to model short retirements and scenarios.We also celebrate a major fundraising milestone for Fairfax CASA and share a real story of how advocacy changes outcomes for teens in our Queen Mary segment.Links:Fairfax CASA Donation Page:  Donate - Fairfax CASAJose's Portfolio Link:  Portfolio Backtester for ETFs and Asset Allocation | testfolioInvestopedia Capital Gains Taxes Article:  Capital Gains Tax: What It Is, How It Works, and Current RatesSara's Portfolio Analyses (from prior episode):  testfol.io/?s=htNZVoZOZn4Portfolio Charts Withdrawal Rates Calculator:  Withdrawal Rates – Portfolio ChartsPortfolio Visualizer Financial Goals Tool:  Financial GoalsBreathless Unedited AI-Bot Summary:$24,000 raised by listeners, plus a pledged $20,000 match, is the kind of number that stops you in your tracks and then makes you proud to be part of a community.

We dig into how to transition a Vanguard-style portfolio toward a risk parity retirement portfolio without detonating a capital gains tax bill, including how to sell specific tax lots, what the 0% long-term capital gains bracket really requires, and when “good enough” beats waiting for perfect. We also cover gold allocation in decumulation (including where GLDM can sit across IRAs and taxable accounts), why turning off dividend reinvestment can make withdrawals and rebalancing cleaner, and why Treasury bond funds like VGIT and VGLT can diversify equity risk better than credit-heavy bond mixes.We also take a thoughtful detour into family finance: how much to help your kids with college while still protecting their drive and independence, how to have “the talk” about expectations, and ways to cut education costs without cutting opportunity. Finally, we revisit a short-term retirement runway plan and talk scenario testing, safe withdrawal rates, and modeling tools like Portfolio Charts, TestFol.io, and Portfolio Visualizer so you can stress-test risk, time horizon, and side income realistically.If you found this helpful, subscribe, share the episode with a DIY investor friend, and leave a review so more people can find the show.Support the show

Buckingham Palace recently announced that Queen Consort Camilla as selected from the crown jewels the Crown of Queen Mary to wear at her own coronation on May 6th, 2023.

The royal family have her to thank for the acquisition and preservation of several important pieces of art, antiques and especially jewelry. But her magpie collecting gained her a false reputation as a kleptomaniac. Let's get to know this important British Queen Consort and find out why her crown is a fitting choice for Camilla.

In this episode we answer emails from Dave, Marcus Vindictus, and Sharon.  We take a hard look at what “diversified” really means in retirement and why correlations matter more than fund count. We also talk about simplifying messy accounts, using AI to decode bad 401(k) menus, and making generosity a real part of financial independence. And we do a fundraising update for Mary's charity, Fairfax CASA, and discuss how CASA stability changes kids' lives in our Queen Mary segment.Links:Fairfax CASA Donation Page:  Donate - Fairfax CASATestfolio Fund Analysis:  Asset Analyzer for ETFs, Stocks, and Funds | testfolioTestfolio Portfolio Comparison:  Portfolio Backtester for ETFs and Asset Allocation | testfolioMerriman Best-in-Class ETFs:  Best ETFs 2025 | Merriman Financial Education FoundationDave's Cool New Tool:  RebalancerCatching Up To FI 401k Podcast:  Is Your 401(k) a Mess? Do This Now (Step-by-Step Guide) | Bill & Jackie | 205Breathless Unedited AI-Bot Summary:A retirement portfolio can look “responsible” on paper and still blow up when you start taking withdrawals. We dig into a real listener email from a DIY investor who is close to early retirement and trying to understand why an advisor-built mix of total market stocks, dividends, international, corporate bonds, and high-yield bonds doesn't behave like a true risk parity portfolio when markets get rough.We walk through the core retirement investing principles we use: define the goal (including a realistic safe withdrawal rate), check correlations so you know whether you're actually diversified, and stress test over the decades that matter like the 1970s and the early 2000s. Along the way, we explain why credit-heavy bond funds can move with stocks, why Treasury bonds tend to be the better ballast, and why adding true alternatives like gold and managed futures has historically improved drawdown control and withdrawal outcomes.We also tackle two problems nearly every investor hits: the “robo-advisor spaghetti” account stuffed with hundreds of holdings, and the frustrating 401(k) plan menu full of overpriced or confusing funds. We share a practical shortcut for the 401(k) problem: paste the fund list into an AI tool and ask it which options are closest to an S&P 500 fund or total market index fund and which ones have the lowest fees.You'll also hear updates on our fundraising for Fairfax CASA plus a reminder that money is most powerful when it supports a life well lived through giving, volunteering, and legacy planning.

The week marks one month since the United States and Israel attacked Iran. We take a look at the impact the resulting war has had on the women and children of the country. Krupa Padhy is joined by BBC Chief International Correspondent Lyse Doucet and Ghoncheh Habibiazad, Senior Reporter from BBC News Persian.Recurrent miscarriage is when you experience more than two or three pregnancy losses, and it affects around one in 100 women. A device designed to offer more care and dignity during miscarriage, and that could aid greater understanding, is now being used in 28 hospitals across the UK. Engineer Laura Corcoran created a miscarriage collection cradle after she suffered the loss of her third pregnancy. She is calling for a wider roll-out of the device. Laura speaks to Krupha, along with Siobhan Quenby, Professor of Obstetrics at the University of Warwick.A new exhibition at Kensington Palace is celebrating the 150th birthday of Princess Sophia Duleep Singh – the Punjabi princess and suffragette. The Last Princesses of Punjab exhibition explores her life and five other women who shaped her. Krupha talks to the curator Polly Putnam and journalist and Radio 4 presenter Anita Anand, author of Sophia: Princess, Suffragette, Revolutionary.Another chance to hear our interview with Janet Willoner, known as the tree growing granny. Janet has grown more than 4,000 trees in her garden.  She forages for seeds, grows them, and they eventually grow in forests in her local area of North Yorkshire.  Zoom bombing involves crashing into a meeting and taking it over - more often than not showing shocking content including pornography.

In this episode we answer emails from Nicholas, Nathan and Lisa.  We discuss  how much gold is enough and how much is too much, why calculators disagree and the best ways to use them, and what “better” means when the future is uncertain. We also walk through a FIRE portfolio headed toward retirement and talk briefly about finding an advisor familiar with risk parity principles.And before that, in our Queen Mary segment, we hear a Fairfax CASA story about how consistent advocacy supports kids in foster care.Links:Fairfax CASA Donation Page:  Donate - Fairfax CASANicholas's Gold Analysis Link:  Plotting withdrawal rates, drawdowns, and returns for different risk parity portfolios - Google SheetsTestfolio Golden Backtests:  testfol.io/?s=45IearFlQbVAfford Anything Episode #618:  They Ran Out of Money.

We dig into one of the most common examples: gold allocation in a risk parity portfolio. If PortfolioCharts shows 20 to 25 percent gold beating 10 to 15 percent for safe withdrawal rate, should you follow the numbers or trust your nerves? We explain where the 10 to 15 percent “sweet spot” comes from, why tiny gold slices rarely matter, and how overfitting turns a clean chart into a fragile plan.From there we zoom out to the real skill: comparing imperfect portfolios without pretending the future will match the past. I share why you should use multiple calculators and multiple datasets, how start dates can change results, and why swapping managed futures, commodities, and gold can flip the outcome. The point is not a magic formula, it is a durable range of allocations that survives uncertainty and keeps sequence of returns risk from wrecking your retirement.We also tackle a detailed FIRE email from a 45-year-old aiming to retire in about five years. We talk expense tracking as the foundation of retirement planning, why liquid assets matter more than net worth, and how to upgrade diversification with Treasury bonds rather than corporate-heavy bond funds. Finally, we cover inflation protection realities, including why TIPS can still drop in a rate shock and why managed futures often behave differently when inflation spikes.If you found this useful, subscribe, share it with a friend planning retirement, and leave a review so more DIY investors can find Risk Parity Radio.Support the show
