Segment 3 — Newfoundland Ordeal: Facing Impossible Weather in the Race Across the Atlantic — David Rooney— Teams faced "suicidal" weather conditions in Newfoundland, the mandatory launch point for transatlantic attempts. In May 1919, the impatient Hawker and Grieve departed in their small Sopwith aircraft and disappeared, prompting widespread public grief. The Rolls-Royce engines employed by competitors, particularly the Eagle and Falcon models, cemented the company's reputation as the premier aircraft engine manufacturer. 1927

Cold breath on the air, pancakes at dawn, and the hush before a bear appears at the treeline – join Wander Woman Phoebe Smith as she journeys from Finland's close‑to‑Helsinki wilds with a foraging guide to paddle a quiet nine kilometres to a lean‑to where two dogs double as companions and hot‑water bottles. The theme is deliberate slowness: built in boredom, and the forest fills the space.

Aujourd'hui, j'annonce officiellement que je me lance dans un GROS DÉFI: la Race Across Québec 300 km en 2026. Et pour m'accompagner dans cette démarche (remplie d'excitation… et de peur !), je reçois la cycliste d'ultradistance Marie-Soleil Blais. On parle de préparation, d'entraînement, de tolérance posturale, de musculation, de nutrition, de sommeil, de matériel, mais aussi des émotions qui viennent avec un défi aussi gros. Marie-Soleil partage ses expériences complètement folles : Tour Divide, RAQ 500 km, RAQ 1000 km, hallucinations, erreurs à éviter, gestion du sommeil… et tout ce qu'il faut savoir avant de se lancer dans l'ultra-distance. Si tu veux comprendre comment on prépare un 300 km ou si tu rêves un jour de tenter l'ultra-distance… cet épisode va t'aider (et peut-être t'inspirer).

Luke, Dawn and Matt are back to review four shows available this week. Beginning with Vince Gilligan's sci-fi genre-bending new series Pluribus which is now available on Apple TV. After a long time in his own Breaking Bad Universe, the acclaimed showrunner is back with a completely original idea, which is best seen without knowing anything about. The trio discuss the first two episodes, which are available on Apple TV now.  Succession's Sarah Snook stars in a surprisingly effective new thriller All Her Fault, which sees Snook's working mother discover her son has been kidnapped. Next, from Channel 4 there's period drama Trespasses which looks at a dangerous love affair during the troubles. Lastly, more celebrities are abroad in a new series of Celebrity Race Across The World. For the quiz, how many nominees of Best Drama Series at the Emmy's can Matt and Dawn name?

We've reached the halfway point of Season 14, and this week, we're joined by ultra-runner Dave Moulding! Dave's running journey proves you don't need to be fit—just well-costumed. Dave takes us from his "unhealthiest, least fit period" , which involved running a 10K dressed as The Stig (complete with a paper mâché helmet) , and then wearing it for 8 hours in the pub afterwards.This paved the way for taking on the brutal, 215-mile Race Across Scotland. Dave also spills the beans on his terrifyingly-efficient support crew, with none other than our own Yorkshire Correspondent, Mel Sykes. Find out how Mel & Jo enforced a strict 90-minute sleep rule , why Dave felt like a child begging for "five more minutes on my phone" , and the crew's no-nonsense mantra for foot care: "Socks off, let's get stuck in!".Plus, Dave shares his strategy for telling the unkind voice in his head "Not today, thank you" , and the shockingly painful moment an electric fence touched his ring.Our chat includes• From being "spectacularly average" at all sports to going "all in" on Ironman training.• Why running a 10K in a paper mâché helmet was the perfect "get out" for not being fit —and the 8 hours he spent wearing it in the pub.• Why ultra-runners are just like toddlers asking for five more minutes on their phones.• The crew mantra for blister management: "Socks off, let's get stuck in!".• Dave's biggest strength is his head. How to tell the unkind voice in your brain, "Not today, thank you".• The electrifying moment a charged fence and a wedding ring got a little too close.

Send us a textHow did Cody Poskin, a guy who was told to “get lost” by the coach at his college, become one of the rising stars of ultrarunning and getting invited to run across the Gobi Desert in China? I dig into that with the help of another 23-year-old ultramarathon beast, TJ Harms-Synkiew. After Cody was spurned by the college coach, he decided to target the Boston Marathon, nailing a qualifying time in his first attempt. At age 21, he jumped up to ultras and won his first two races, including the Midstate Massive Ultra Trail 100-mile in a speedy 19:47. He was a very impressive 13th at his first Leadville Trail 100 in 2024 in 19:28, and then had another breakthrough at the Jackpot 100 miler, which he ran in 13:26, breaking the course record by 33 minutes. After placing 8th at the Cocodona 250 in 71:11, Cody joined 54 other runners to run the Ultra Gobi 400K, a life-altering experience. The Chinese hosted a world-class event as Cody describes, all while he had to navigate a course that had no markings, only checkpoints, and he had to run self-supported with a 15-pound pack in which he was required to carry 2000 calories at all times. He won in 64:49, shattering the course record by 4 hours, and earned the title Guanjun Marshall. What makes this episode fun for an old ultramarathon goat like me is listening to 23-year-olds who are relatively new to the sport and how they plunge into all sorts of challenges with the attitude of “I'll figure it out along the way.”Cody Poskincodyposkin.comInstagram, YouTube, and Threads @cody_poskinBill Stahlsilly_billy@msn.comFacebook Bill StahlInstagram and Threads @stahlor and @we_are_superman_podcastYouTube We Are Superman PodcastSubscribe to the We Are Superman Newsletter!https://mailchi.mp/dab62cfc01f8/newsletter-signupSubscribe to our Substack for my archive of articles of coaching tips developed from my more than three decades of experience, wild and funny stories from my long coaching career, the wit and wisdom of David, and highlights of some of the best WASP episodes from the past that I feel are worthwhile giving another listen.Search either We Are Superman Podcast or @billstahl8

This week Sam has clearly had a meeting with a spray tan as he is looking suspiciously orange. Pete isn't letting it slide…it's giving Oompa Loompa. Meanwhile poor Pete is ill, but still soldiers on we pit Pete and Sam against each other as traitor versus faithful. The boys also question if they would survive Race Across the World, and Pete's 66 to 1 odds of becoming the next James Bond spark a debate full of dodgy accents, dreams and unlikely 007s. Elsewhere Pete's series ‘For Dog's Sake' is about to drop with another award nomination in the bag. Sam shares his Halloween plans, relives the moment he got pied off by a Gallagher brother, and admits Louise heard a little too much of his bathroom soundtrack.—

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. Alkami helps clients transform through retail and business banking, digital account opening, payment security, and data analytics and marketing solutions. To learn more, visit www.alkami.com.

Matt and Dawn welcome a new voice to the show, site contributor Ruthie Nugent, to review 4 brand new shows. First up, Jimmy McGovern's hard hitting single drama Unforgivable. Prime Video's The Assassin, which sees Keeley Hawes as a retired Assassin forced out of retirement just as her son arrives to visit. Next, Lena Dunham's first new project in years, this time for Netflix and London set RomCom homage Too Much. Lastly, the BBC are hoping they can continue their streak of popular reality series with Destination X, which, in theory, could be a Traitors and Race Across the World hybrid. That's the theory, anyway. Finally, Dawn challenges Matt and Ruthie to name as finalists of I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here as they can.

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.

In this episode of The Virtual Velo Podcast, co-hosts Emma Martin and Chris Schwenker welcome Matthew Lefthand—the newly crowned world-record holder for the greatest virtual cycling distance in 24 hours—and Larry Oslund, Records Chair of the World Ultra Cycling Association (WUCA).Lefthand's transformation from 280 pounds to elite ultra-cyclist is nothing short of inspirational. 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. As Oslund puts it, he has the potential to rewrite the ultra-cycling record books.Don't miss out on the unique opportunity to delve even deeper into the intriguing topics discussed in this episode.The anatomy of a record-setting 24-hour virtual ride [Escape Collective, May 16, 2025] Join us for a conversational ride as we lend a voice to the digital athlete and bridge the gap between athlete and avatar.Statements made by guests are their own and do not necessarily reflect the views or opinions of the podcast, its hosts, or its partners.
