Today's guest is no stranger to long miles. Dave Moulding is the kind of runner who doesn't just chase finish lines, he chases meaning, mishaps, and the occasional canal path detour. In 2020, Dave set a Fastest Known Time on the Lancaster Canal, clocking 9 hours and 49 minutes of pure determination & some questionable navigation.He's the kind of athlete who reminds us that endurance isn't just physical, it's emotional, logistical, and sometimes involves your support crew playing Jason Bourne with a brown paper bag of gels. We're diving into the mindset behind the miles, the grit, and why running through farmers' fields with 20 gates & styles is just another Tuesday.So lace up, settle in, and get ready for a conversation with Dave Moulding.XMILES UK - Listeners receive 10% of their order value back as store credit via the link below https://xmiles.avln.me/c/RiwxnARvfHeRRunderwear - Use code TEATRAILS15 for 15% off your orderhttps://runderwear.avln.me/c/GPVNMgMfYfLPSHOKZ - Use code TEA102025 to receive £10 offhttps://uk.shokz.com?sca_ref=7394994.MfsDQZBAeLQihiPrecision Fuel & Hydration https://visit.pfandh.com/3GKxHjUPrecision Fuel & Hydration Planner https://visit.pfandh.com/3RuP25zHarrier - Use code TEA10 for 10% off https://harrierrunfree.co.uk/Centurion Running - Use code TEAANDTRAILS10 to receive 10% off *Excluding Sale Items https://centurionrunning.com/GOODR - Use code GOTEAANDTRAILS to reveive 10% off your order https://goodr.avln.me/c/VLEmsAIZCDtmLIFE JACKET SKIN PROTECTION - Use code GOTYOURBACK for 10% off your first order https://lifejacketskin.com/PRIMUS UK - Use code TT-PRIMUS-20 for 20% off https://primusuk.avln.me/c/kBWmOJaEiByDProtein Rebel - Use code Tea15 for 15% off your first order https://proteinrebel.com/Fenixlight Limited - Use code T&T5 for 5% off your order https://www.fenixlight.co.uk/Content may contain affiliate links which can help support and grow this channel at no extra cost to you.Brew with the Coaches - CLICK HEREHardmoors - https://www.hardmoors110.org.uk/Ourea Events - https://www.oureaevents.com/Ultra Trails - https://www.ultratrails.co.uk/Hannah Walsh - https://www.hannahwalsh.co.uk/Punk Panther - https://www.punkpanther.co.uk/Pen Llyn Ultra - https://penllyn.niftyentries.com/Raw Adventures - https://www.raw-adventures.co.uk/

Hi, it's Natalie here. After a bit of a summer pause (thanks to some tech drama), I'm thrilled to be back with a truly special episode. This one was recorded live at the Green Man Festival, on the Pandemonium Stage in Einstein's Garden, and it's a conversation I've been dreaming about for a long time. If you've been to a festival over the summer and think this type of conversation would fit, do let me know. Feel free to leave a comment wherever you listen or scroll to the bottom to find out more. We tackled one of the most common yet complicated questions many of us face:“So, do you have kids?” It seems innocent, but for so many, it opens the door to grief, awkwardness, and a whole lot of emotional weight. In this episode, we explore why that question can hurt and what we might ask instead.I was joined by four incredible guests who generously shared their personal stories and wisdom on stage:Mel Johnson, solo parent coach and founder of The Stork and IShema Tariq, academic, writer, baby loss advocate and Tommy's trusteeBetty Mukherjee, MRKH campaigner and Race Across the World finalistAnd my husband, Rich Silverman, who opened up publicly for the first time about our journey with male factor infertility and the mental health impact on himWhat we talked aboutWhy the question “Do you have kids?” can be so deeply painful when you're navigating infertility, baby loss, or childlessness not by choiceMel's journey to solo motherhood and the way people still make assumptions about women who choose that pathShema's IVF experience using donor eggs, the heart breaking loss of her baby at 21 weeks, and how her cultural background shaped her experienceBetty's diagnosis of MRKH at 16 and how she opened up about it during her time on national TVRich's journey with male factor infertility and how counselling helped him move forward, plus why more men need space to share tooThe words we use around fertility and family, and how language can uplift or hurtTalking to children about solo parenting and donor conception, and why openness mattersThe trauma of fertility treatment, especially for people of colour, and the inequalities that still existHow to truly show up for loved ones going through these journeys, and why "I'm here if you ever want to talk" is sometimes not enoughBetter ways to connectIf you're ever unsure of what to say instead of “Do you have kids?”, here are a few suggestions we shared:“What's been bringing you joy lately?”“What's been going on in your world?”“What are you passionate about these days?”And most importantly: ask twice. Sometimes people need that second invitation to feel safe opening up.Have a listen to my chat with Shema previously - way back in 2022What do I need to think about when going abroad for donor treatment? • The Fertility Podcast Let's keep the conversation goingConnect with me on Instagram: @fertilitypoddyShema's Insta: @drshematariqMel's Insta: @the_stork_and_iBetty's Insta: @bettymuk_Rich's Insta:

Silent attrition may be the biggest threat most banks aren't talking about — and the stakes are rising fast. The 2025 Generational Trends in Digital Banking study reveals that only 56% of digital banking consumers expect to maintain their current relationship over the next year, while the rest are quietly drifting toward stagnation or disengagement. This continuous erosion of loyalty comes just as the U.S. faces one of the largest intergenerational wealth transfers in history. Thirty-seven percent of Americans expect an inheritance in the next two decades, but if banks can't hold on to younger, digital-first customers now, those assets — and the loyalty — will walk out the door. Joining me today on the Banking Transformed podcast are two powerhouse experts – Jason Dorsey, President of The Center for Generational Kinetics, and Allison Cerra, Chief Marketing Officer at Alkami Technologies. They will unpack the findings from the 2025 Generational Trends in Digital Banking Study and share what banks must do now to stop the quiet exodus before it's too late. Remember, silent attrition doesn't announce itself — it's a quiet leak of loyalty, share of wallet, and future opportunity that can be devastating if ignored. This Episode of Banking Transformed is Sponsored by Alkami Alkami Technology, Inc. is a leading cloud-based digital banking solutions provider for financial institutions in the United States that enables clients to grow confidently, adapt quickly, and build thriving digital communities.

️ Esta semana en Series en Serio nos metemos en auténticas telarañas televisivas. Primero viajamos al espacio… o mejor dicho, lo traemos a casa, porque Alien: Planeta Tierra aterriza en Disney+ con una nave misteriosa que choca contra un edificio y nos regala bichos, robots, simbiontes y, sobre todo, humanos demasiado humanos. Después conocemos a las Viudas Negras, unas amigas argentinas que se dedicaban a timar a hombres incautos y que ahora vuelven a reunirse, entre secretos, enredos y mucho humor negro en HBO. Pero si hablamos de viudas negras, tenemos que recordar a las originales: Parvati, Cirie y Amanda, las reinas de Survivor Micronesia, que inventaron una de las alianzas más memorables de la historia de la televisión. Ahora regresan en el gran enfrentamiento de Survivor Australia Vs The World, que podéis ver en YouTube. Y como la tele también es un gimnasio de emociones (y a veces de torturas), Netflix estrena Fit for TV, un “true crime” sobre The Biggest Loser que nos recuerda que adelgazar a base de traumas y gritos no era exactamente sano. Amazon Prime tampoco se queda atrás: vuelve Upload con su última temporada, esa sátira tecnológica que empezó graciosa y acabó siendo casi un tutorial de lo que Silicon Valley realmente está haciendo con nuestras almas digitales. Y para terminar, un poco de glamour neoyorquino con el final de temporada de And Just Like That. Diría que tiene spoilers… pero el mayor spoiler es que no la veáis. Yo os lo cuento y nos echamos unas risas juntos. Si fuera poco en la página de televisión hablamos del reality de aventuras que prepara TVE "Hasta el fin del mundo", adaptación de Race Across The World.

Pour cet épisode 166 je reçois Arnaud ManzaniniC'est grâce à la lecture de son livre « Rêves Across America », paru chez Rossolis en 2019, que j'ai découvert le petit monde de l'ultra, qu'il a largement fait grandir depuis. En 2015, il était un participant de la RAAM (Race Across America), dont il est un des rares cyclistes français à avoir bouclé la distance de 5000 km dans les temps impartis. Dix ans plus tard, c'est lui qui fait rouler les autres sur des courses d'Ultra distance avec des Race Across qu'il a inventées en démarrant en 2018 avec 42 participants, dont 19 sur la distance la plus longue.Aujourd'hui, une bonne partie de son « Rêve Across » est exaucée, mais Arnaud continue de rêver et de nous faire rêver avec de nouvelles épreuves dans de nouveaux pays qui s'appuient sur une organisation structurée et une sérieuse sécurité. Dans cet échange, Arnaud évoque la saga des Race Across Series et me parle de cette « génération ultra » qui aujourd'hui se précipite sur les épreuves de longue distance. On écoute Arnaud, un habitué des podcasts avec notamment son Ultratalk, qui a fait connaître l'ultra à une génération de jeunes cyclistes qui ont découvert ainsi la longue distance.Infos sur le site de Race Across Series https://raceacrossseries.com/Hébergé par Ausha.

Matthew Lefthand is a record-breaking ultra-endurance cyclist who's redefining what's possible on two wheels. In this episode, we dive into his journey from a 270-pound marathon runner to one of the fastest ultra bikers in the world. He recently shattered the Race Across the West course record, completing the brutal 860-mile route from Oceanside to Durango in just 1 day, 21 hours, and 39 minutes, averaging nearly 19 mph through desert heat and mountain climbs. Earlier this year, he also set the highest 24-hour mileage ever recorded by an American—576 miles at the Sebring 24. But beyond the numbers, this conversation is about the mental, physical, and spiritual transformation that fuels those rides. Matthew talks about what it means to suffer with purpose, how his Navajo heritage and family drive him forward, and what it takes to truly give everything you have. If you're chasing big goals or need a reminder of what the human body and spirit are capable of, this one's for you.

Just two years after discovering cycling, he became one of only a handful of athletes to surpass the 500-mile mark in 24 hours on the road—eclipsing it on his first attempt, and then followed it up with 658.31 certified record-setting miles on Zwift. Along the way, he's crushed course records at the Hoodoo 500 and Race Across the West, beating not only solo competitors but entire relay teams.With his blend of mental resilience, untapped physiological potential, and scientific precision, Lefthand may just be getting started.

Matt, Dawn and Mo are back to review the new shows available this week. On ITV, there's a second series of medical thriller Malpractice. It's an odd show to bring back given that it wasn't a big show or overly discussed but it would appear that ITV are hoping this will be a returning series featuring a team who are brought in to investigate medical malpractice. On Prime Video, Amy Sherman Paladino is back for ballet drama Étoile. As a big fan of the Gilmore Girls, Bunheads and The Marvellous Mrs Maisel, how to the trio feel about this new show which sees fictional dance schools in New York and Paris swap dancers. Finally, on Netflix, there's relationship drama The Four Seasons which sees three couple spend four holidays together. Spoiler, its one of the warmest and surprising shows of the year with a great cast which includes Tina Fey, Colman Domingo and Steve Carell.  There's also discussion on Doctor Who, Race Across the World, Andor and Hacks.

In this final episode of my 8th season of Teenage Kicks, we hear from Betty and James Mukherjee, of Race Across The World fame. Watching the show we saw the brother and sister relationship develop as they completed challenges together, but they say it wasn't always like this - they fell out like typical siblings when they were growing up. They talk about how they handled their feelings during the harder times on the trip around Southeast Asia (remember when they lost their passports?) and the moment when Betty opened up to James about her diagnosis of MRKH, a medical condition which means she doesn't have a uterus. I ask Betty what it was like to be diagnosed at the age of 16 with something that changed her perception of her life, and I ask James how it felt to know at a young age that his sister's life had changed. They both talk about the need to allow feelings, their own and each other's, and - importantly - to open up about those feelings rather than keeping them locked in. She describes herself as a 'glass half empty' kind of girl, and how important it is to notice when she starts to catastrophise and take steps to change her previous patterns. Betty now shares the reality of her daily life on Instagram and in her women's wellbeing community It's a Balance Thing. She says it's important for her to talk to her friends (even though they couldn't understand) and to share with others going through the same. She recommends MRKH Connect for other people living with MRKH. James tells me about the moment on the show where he gets a hug from a cameraman after feeling emotional during that conversation, and how important it feels now to help men understand that allowing emotions is also important for them. He recommends Andy's Man Club as a good place to start if you're struggling to open up about mental health. You can also message James on Instagram.
