Podcasts about rainforests

This episode, Gary and Anthony are remotely checking in (apologies for the mic quality), as the two play a bit of trivia, and dive deeper into conservation topics like AI, Fundraising, and the wonderful world of the southeast Asian rainforests.

The Room In A Rainforest by Lindsey by 826 Valencia

Deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon has declined by 22% for the year ending July 31, 2023, according to data from Brazil's National Institute for Space Research (INPE). On this episode of the Mongabay Newscast, CEO and editor-in-chief Rhett Butler tells us what the data show and what Mongabay will be looking for in the future. Butler also details more exciting news, such as the 2023 Biophilia Award for Environmental Communication, given to Mongabay for its “outstanding track record” in communicating issues related to nature and biodiversity, and the launch of an all-new bilingual bureau in Africa.

This September 11, 2023, I had the honor of holding space for an intimate conversation with civil rights leader, lawyer, award-winning filmmaker, educator, and best-selling author of the book SEE NO STRANGER, Valarie Kaur. The fact that we were recording on September 11th was meaningful, because the tragic event that had taken place 22 years ago shaped Valarie in profound ways and set her on a path that she never expected. Valarie became an activist after a man of the same Sikh faith, a father and family friend she called uncle, Balbir Singh Sodhi, was the first person murdered in hate violence in the aftermath of 9/11. For two decades in his memory, Valarie led visionary campaigns to tell untold stories and change policy on issues ranging from hate crimes to solitary confinement to digital freedom. Along the way, she earned degrees at Stanford University, Harvard Divinity School, and Yale Law School. Today, Valarie is the mother of two children and as you'll hear her share, the experience of becoming a mother inspired her to birth the Revolutionary Love Project, which supports communities with practical tools to transform the nation from inside out. Revolutionary love, Valarie says, “is the choice to labor for others, for opponents, and for ourselves. Love is sweet labor — fierce, bloody, imperfect, life-giving, a choice we make. And it begins with wonder. You can look at anyone and say: You are a part of me I don't yet know. From there, we begin to transform the world around us, and inside us.” There is a lightness and hopefulness in the tone of our conversation that we wouldn't have in the same way if we recorded the conversation today. I'm grateful for it. Valarie thanked me at the end for giving her the deepest breath she had in a long time. During a time in our country and world, where so many seem to be disconnected from a sense of our common humanity and divisions between us are widening, I hope this conversation is a deep breath for you. Because as Valarie says as she evokes the metaphor of a midwife in her famous Watch Night speech, linked in the show notes, we must first breathe and then we push. The mother asks "what if this darkness we face is not the darkness of the tomb, but the darkness of the womb?" Today we breathe and tomorrow we will labor in revolutionary love.    About Valarie Kaur: VALARIE KAUR is a renowned civil rights leader, lawyer, award-winning filmmaker, educator, innovator, author of the #1 LA Times Bestseller SEE NO STRANGER, and founder of the Revolutionary Love Project. Valarie burst into global consciousness when her 2016 Watch Night Service address went viral with 40 million views worldwide. Her question “Is this the darkness of the tomb – or the darkness of the womb?” reframes the historical moment and is now a mantra for people fighting for change. Valarie became an activist when a Sikh father and family friend Balbir Singh Sodhi was the first person murdered in hate violence in the aftermath of 9/11. For two decades, in his memory, Valarie led visionary campaigns to tell untold stories and change policy on issues ranging from hate crimes to digital freedom. Her work ignited a national movement to reclaim love as a force for justice. In 2021, she led the People's Inauguration, inspiring millions of Americans to renew their role in building a healthy, multiracial democracy. Today, the Revolutionary Love Project is seeding networked communities of practice across the country, equipping people with the practical tools to build beloved community and transform the nation from inside out. In the last two decades, Valarie has won policy change on multiple fronts – hate crimes, racial profiling, immigration detention, solitary confinement, Internet freedom, and more. She founded Groundswell Movement, Faithful Internet, and the Yale Visual Law Project to equip advocates at the intersection of spirituality, storytelling, and justice. Valarie has been a regular TV commentator on MSNBC and contributor to CNN, NPR, PBS, the Hill, Huffington Post, and the Washington Post. She is a celebrated prophetic voice and has spoken widely, including at President Biden's Inaugural Prayer Service. Valarie earned degrees at Stanford University, Harvard Divinity School, and Yale Law School, and holds several honorary doctorates. In Fall 2022, President Biden honored Valarie at the White House in the first-ever Uniters Ceremony, naming her as one of 16 leaders whose work is healing America. A daughter of Punjabi farmers, Valarie grew up on the farmlands of California, where her family has lived for more than a century. Her grandfather gave her Sikh wisdom through stories and songs that showed the way of the sant-sipahi, sage-warrior. The sage loves; the warrior fights — it is a path of revolutionary love.   Connect with Valarie: Website | valariekaur.com Facebook | www.facebook.com/valarie.kaur.page Instagram | @valariekaur Resources from Valarie: Revolutionary Love Project Website  See No Stranger: A Memoir and Manifesto of Revolutionary Love Valarie's TED Talk: 3 Lessons of Revolutionary Love in a Time of Rage Valarie's Famous Watch Night Speech: Breathe and Push  The Revolutionary Love Training Course  9/11 20th Anniversary Learning Hub Wise Woman Guided Inquiry    Topics Discussed in this Episode: Valarie's story about the birth of her son, with her mother by her side, and the lessons she learned about motherhood from that experience. Mothering as a verb and how mothering often feels like walking through a ring of fire.  The experiences that set Valarie on a path of activism after 9/11 and the surprising spark moment she learned from her grieving aunt.  How becoming a mother changed Valarie's orientation from activism fighting against hate to activism fighting for revolutionary love. Valarie's experience moving to the Rainforest to reflect on all she learned and write her book See No Stranger.   Revolutionary love as the call of our times. Valarie's epic snapshot moment nursing her daughter while she was at the White House being honored. The quote from Audrey Lorde that reminds Valarie to care for and invest in herself - “We can learn to mother ourselves.”  The Wise Woman ritual Valarie experienced with two of her Sikh friends and the meditation she offers to help you tap into your inner Wise Woman.  The lullaby Valarie wrote and sang for her daughter that will become a children's book, “World of Wonder.”    This Episode's Challenge:  Valarie says that the root of love is wonder and sings us a lullaby she wrote for her daughter about wonder. She encourages us to wonder about our partners, our children, our friendships, and beyond. Wondering about each other is a revolutionary process in a society that wants to shut down our ability to look at one another's faces and say “You are a part of me I don't yet now.” It's so simple but it can change everything and help us birth a better world.    Other Episodes Mentioned in this Conversation:  Good Life Project Podcast Interview of Valarie Kaur  Planting Seeds for Mother's Quest Episode 00     About This Episode's Dedication By Shelly Tygielski: This is the 100th episode of the Mother's Quest Podcast. It feels fitting to mark this occasion with a powerful conversation about Revolutionary Love with renowned civil rights leader Valarie Kaur. Valarie talks about Revolutionary Love as sweet labor and this podcast, since I launched it 7 years ago in 2016, has always been a labor of love. So too has been my form of mission-aligned sponsorship, where rather than seeking corporate sponsors, I invite one mother to dedicate each episode and to make a contribution to support Mother's Quest. In honor of this milestone, I invited Shelly Tygielski, founder of Pandemic of Love, and an Advisory Board Member of Global Empowerment Mission to dedicate. Instead of contributing to Mother's Quest, I made a contribution to the Global Empowerment Mission. I hope you'll join me in celebrating this 100th episode milestone by sharing this important conversation you're about to hear and by making a donation to the Global Empowerment Mission.   Shelly's Dedication: I would like to dedicate this episode of the Mother's Quest podcast to all the mothers of young, innocent children who are caught in the crossfire of war. May these children grow up in a world that is free from hate and injustice. May they be free from suffering. May they have access to opportunities and never be devoid of hopes and dreams. As the founder of Pandemic of Love and an advisory board member of Global Empowerment Mission, we are currently providing aid to Israelis and to Palestinians. When people ask us to choose a side, we say we have. We are on the side of love. Or as Valerie Kaur says it is the best, revolutionary love.

This is Video 1 of the free 4-Part Training "Sacred Growth: Nurturing Your Online Business like a Food Forest" - Get the Full Training here: https://www.thedirtyalchemy.com/forestWelcome to Sacred Growth: Nurturing Your Online Business like a Food Forest!I am so excited you're here. So excited to share this body of work with you. And so excited that for all that you're going to be able to unlock through installing the Food Forest Framework for Online Business Success.If you're here I'm going to assume you know who I am, but in case a friend forwarded this training to you, here's a quick 10-second intro.HI! I'm Sam Garcia, founder + lead strategist of Dirty Alchemy Digital Marketing, a boutique marketing agency for thought leaders and course creators whose businesses are devoted to revolutionizing the world + live on an off-grid regenerative farm my husband designed and stewards on Maui.  I wrote the bestselling book Regenerative Business which is about how to use Nature's design principles to have a more impactful, joyful, abundant, and easeful business.Which is what this video series is about too.First - housekeeping:Over these 4 videos you'll be designing your business as a Food Forest - if you don't know what that means, I do not expect you to + will explain shortly:Video 1. What a food forest is, setting the goal of your business as a food forest, and “prepping your site”Video 2. The different types of Food Forests + You'll choose one based on your goalsVideo 3. The 9 layers of a Food Forest to set within your businessVideo 4. Addressing the climate and soil quality of You, and your Energetic BlueprintI am trying to keep these as distilled as possible for maximum potency, so you can focus on actually taking action. The point of this is not to just load you with info — the point is for you to lay the groundwork of a regenerative business. That's why you'll find companion activities below each of these videos.And as a neuro-spicy human I am very aware that different people have different learning styles, so you will find the full transcript below each video if you prefer reading. I'll also publish the audio from this video as an Expiring episode on my podcast, Regenerative Business with Sam Garcia if you want to listen on the go.All 4 videos are available now incase you're a binge-watcher like me, and I'll also be sending you reminder emails to go through everything in case you'd prefer tackling it in smaller chunks.Please note that these videos, podcasts, and activities will only be available for free until November 26th so this isn't work to put off.Okay! Now that that's clear - let's jump into our first training!…The concept of a Food Forest is something I learned when I got my Permaculture Design Certification in 2012.The term perma-culture is a play on the words “permanent agriculture” and was coined to describe designing food growing systems that mimic how Nature grows food. Of course it doesn't actually originate there —The food forest concept I first learned in “permaculture” echos the forest gardens common among the Indigenous societies of North America's northwestern coast, and worldwide.Indigenous peoples around the world have lived and continue to live in relationship with land.Nature doesn't grow food like large-scale commercial farms, with rows and rows of the same crops acting like a salad bar for bugs, requiring pesticides and human intervention, and centered around making a profit. Nature grows food in forests.Rainforests cover less than 2% of the Earth's total surface area, yet they are home to 50% of the Earth's plants and animals.Out of the 3,000 plants the U.S. National Cancer Institute has identified as useful in the treatment of cancer, 70% of these plants are found only in rainforests.At least 80% of the developed world's food originated in the tropical rainforest. Its bountiful gifts to the world include fruits like avocados, oranges, tomatoes; vegetables including corn, potatoes, winter squash; spices like black pepper, coffee and vanilla; and nuts like Brazil nuts and cashews.[Source]These food forests or forest gardens are apart of our human nature and are resilient as fuck.A sad example showing this is the forest gardens established around First Nation villages in Alaska — colonists forcibly removed the indigenous people from their villages 150 years ago but the forest gardens are currently thriving without human intervention.The land is waiting for its people to return.[Source]These systems don't require pesticides to thrive. Or human intervention. They don't require humans at all. Nature designed them to be self-reliant and to self-regulate — through many species of plants, animals, fungi, insects, bacteria, and rocks, minerals, molecules, elements, all collaborating and cohabitating in a multidimensional cycle of death and growth, all in the name of increased alive-ness of the system.In ecological succession, most ecosystems end up like a forest. And without significant disturbances, like wildfires or severe climate changes or humans coming through a clearcutting it, the forest will endure indefinitely, because the system becomes stable and self-perpetuating.So within permaculture, whether you're designing a backyard food growing system, or a 100+ acre farm, you're using this concept of a Food Forest in its design.Because who's the most fertile, abundant, resilient systems designer? Nature.And when we design like Nature does, our systems are less reliant on us. We get our freedom and time back. And we create something beautiful and wild for the world, that can shock the current Industrial status quo.And it doesn't have to stop at food-growing systems.We can use Nature's principles and teachings to design our business systems too.Our focus today is an important one. You may want to skip it because it's less flashy than the next couple trainings, but this step is absolutely necessary to complete before starting the next 2.Today we'll be setting your Food Forest goal and analyzing your site.This is different than your annual revenue goal or anything like that.1. SETTING YOUR ULTIMATE GOALBefore designing a Food Forest you need to be clear on what your goal is. Because a goal of growing enough food for your family with as little work required from you as possible, versus you creating a community hub and demonstration site, versus you wanting as much food production as possible so you can sell your extra to local restaurants and create value added products to sell at farmers markets, all of those could be done on the same plot of land, but what you plant and what systems you set up would be significantly different.Down below this video you'll find a list of questions to go through today to get clear on your business's ultimate goal — it's essentially a short quiz whose answers will enlighten the decisions you'll be making in the next 2 videos.Let's go through them together now - you can mark down your answers as we go along, or return to this later. DO record your answers in a journal or Notes app.Please really tune into what you REALLY want, versus what's flashy or what you could brag about. It is just as worthy and valid and valuable to want to design your business to support your preferred lifestyle and help your people in your corner of the internet, as it is to want to build a massive organization where you're featured on The View.

Ready for a deep dive into the future of payments? Our thoughtful conversation with Joshua Silver, the CEO of Rainforest, is one you won't want to miss. Rainforest helps software companies seamlessly integrate payments into their platforms, carving a niche across diverse sectors, from healthcare and field services to logistics and construction. Joshua shares the competitive edge that Rainforest provides by absorbing all the risk and liability, allowing software companies to focus on what they do best - writing software and serving their customers. This model is a significant departure from traditional payment facilitator models, and it's proving increasingly attractive to software companies.Small businesses are no longer procuring payments from their bank, but payments are embedded in the software they use to run their business. This evolution of payment distribution has significant implications for ISOs and the industry at large. We also delve into the burgeoning arena of faster payments and alternative payment methods. Joshua underscores the cruciality of customer-centricity in the payments industry, the impact of cost-cutting measures, and the indispensability of aligning with companies that reflect your values.

There is tremendous variation in the plant kingdom, as plants have adapted to many ecological niches with discrete challenges. Part of adaptation is production of novel secondary metabolites, compounds not required for central metabolism that serve a role in the plant, such as defense or attraction of pollinators. The rainforest is replete with unusual plants and their resident metabolites. Indigenous peoples have identified therapeutic qualities of specific plants. How can this knowledge be transferred to aid those suffering beyond the rainforest? Lisa Conte is the CEO, President and Founder of Jaguar Health, a subsidiary of Napo Pharmaceuticals.  We discuss process of working with indigenous peoples to learn from their findings, then test and validate them in ways to identify novel mechanisms of action for use in modern medicine.

The African forest elephant (Loxodonta cyclotis) plays a critical role in shaping the Congo rainforest, experts say. Though they represent incalculable and intrinsic value, there is much scientists still do not know about this critically endangered species of megafauna.    On this final episode of the Congo Basin season of Mongabay Explores, Fiona "Boo" Maisels, a conservation scientist at the Wildlife Conservation Society, and Andrew Davies, assistant professor of organismic and evolutionary biology at Harvard University, detail the 'irreplaceable' value of African forest elephants, what would happen if we lose them, and why they need urgent protection.   If you missed the first five episodes of this podcast series, please subscribe to Mongabay Explores wherever you get your podcasts from, and follow the links below:    What would it cost to protect the Congo Rainforest?

Kevin Gale desperately tries to organize a search party for Yossi Ghinsberg, who is still lost in the Bolivian rainforest. As days turn to weeks, Kevin worries he'll never see his friend alive again. Meanwhile, malnourished and injured, Yossi is growing increasingly disoriented as he treks through the forbidding jungle. He begins to lose all hope of ever being rescued.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today, I'm joined by photographer Mark Fox to talk about his experience working in Amazon Rainforest conservation and how he built a life around travel and his passions. Mark is a British photographer based in Quito, Ecuador. In 2017, he quit his stable job as a cameraman in the UK to travel the world. He now works with an Amazon conservation organization, collaborating with Indigenous leaders and local governments to protect three world-class biocooridors for wildlife migration. In this episode, Mark shares what he's learned from working in conservation and spending time with Indigenous communities, advice on visiting these communities as an independent traveler (and having genuine experiences), and how to respectfully photograph locals on your travels. You'll hear about his stint working at an Ayahuasca retreat and how this opened him up spiritually, daily life in Ecuador, and much more! How can you build a life around your passions and travel? Are you already on that path? I'd love to hear your thoughts and hope you'll share them by sending me an audio message.

Kaleidoscope Rainforest By Eleanor by 826 Valencia

After splitting off from their group, Yossi Ghinsberg and Kevin Gale hope to complete their journey through the Bolivian rainforest by rafting down the Tuichi River. But they quickly discover they're no match for the dangerous rapids. Soon they get separated, and when Yossi makes it to shore, Kevin is nowhere to be found. Yossi finds himself alone in the jungle, with barely any food, and no survival skills.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Of course the rainforest, as in its name, is often rainy. In this sound a rain has recently subsided in the jungle but the large canopy leaves above still drip and drop rain droplets onto the ground. Thunder rolls and rumbles and birds, crickets, and other wildlife call out. Spotify listener?

It's 1981 and 22-year-old Yossi Ghinsberg is wrapping up a backpacking trip through South America. In La Paz, Bolivia, he and two friends meet an older Austrian expat, who entices them to join him on a trek into an uncharted corner of the Amazon rainforest. Yossi and his companions set out looking for adventure, but quickly discover they are ill-equipped for the harsh jungle environment, and their guide may not be as capable as they thought.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On this week's episode of Talking Apes Podcast, we're joined by two extraordinary scientists, Dr Cleve Hicks and Toni Romani, as they lead us into the enigmatic world of the Bili-Ape and beyond.Few people have ventured as far and deep into the Congo's dark and secretive forests as Dr Cleve Hicks. Primatologist and associate professor at the University of Warsaw, Cleve takes us back to his thrilling early 2000s expedition in search of the mysterious Bili-Ape; a creature once rumoured to be an amalgamation of chimp and gorilla, displaying astonishing bipedal abilities and fearsome strength. Is it a missing link, a hybrid, or an entirely new species? Cleve and his team ventured into the wilderness with no clear expectations, ready to unearth incredible discoveries concealed beneath the jungle canopy.Dr Hicks and Toni Romani's work in western Uganda also opens up a world of secrets. From chimpanzee ground nests hidden on the dense forest floor, to the fascinating and diverse realm of ape tool 'culture'.Join us as Cleve and Toni guide us through some of their findings:Ground-nesting chimpsDid you know that chimps build nest-like beds in the trees every night? During their expedition, Toni and Cleve began to notice an astonishing percentage of chimp nests down on the ground. Why? And does this discovery have implications for our understanding of human evolution, offering clues about our own sleeping habits from the past?  Elaborate tool-use traditions amongst wild chimp populationsChimps exhibit a remarkably diverse array of tool-use practises. From using sets of sticks in a sequence to access honey in beehives to unique pounding, levering, and probing techniques, the world of ape tool culture is more rich and diverse than we previously thought.The spread of unique behavioural practises making up 'cultural realms' Can the notion of culture truly extend to chimps?  Cleve reveals how behavioural traits and tool-use traditions differ vastly across chimp groups and also cluster, alluding to the idea of 'cultural realms', and mirroring how cultures are dispersed and divided across our own Homo sapien world.  Can understanding these behavioural traits in  our closest cousins shed light on our own ancient history and the tools and traditions of early hominins?  CLICK HERE TO READ: Ground Nesting Chimps Hold Lessons for Conservation and for Human Evolution Click here to watch Cleve's Ted Talk on chimp culture in the Congo BasinScroll down for photos and videos. Support the showTalking Apes is an initiative of the nonprofit GLOBIO.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova.    This week I'm thrilled to air a Reload episode with the wonderful Roger Martin.    In 2017, Roger was named the world's #1 management thinker by Thinkers50, a biannual ranking of the most influential global business thinkers. He is a trusted strategy advisor to the CEOs of companies worldwide including Procter & Gamble, Lego, and Ford. He is also a Professor Emeritus at the Rotman School of Management at University of Toronto where he served as Dean from 1998-2013, Academic Director of the Michael Lee-Chin Family Institute for Corporate Citizenship from 2004-2019 and Institute Director of the Martin Prosperity Institute from 2013-2019. In 2013, he was named global Dean of the Year by the leading business school website, Poets & Quants. His newest book is When More is Not Better: Overcoming America's Obsession with Economic Efficiency.    THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… leaders looking to find a productive balance between purpose and profits.     TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE… Roger and I discuss his new book and the history of American economics. For the first 200 years of the American economy, we witnessed a truly impressive performance and the economic life of the average American family got better. But, in recent decades, growth in the economic prosperity of the average family in America has slowed to a crawl. At the same time, the prosperity of America's richest families has grown to a level never seen before. This combination of the stagnation of the average family and the enrichment of the richest Americans threatens American democratic capitalism. Roger provides a unique viewpoint on what has changed and why the helpful pursuit of efficiency has turned into a damaging obsession. He also begins to lay out how to bring about more productive balance.    WHAT  I  LOVE  MOST… getting the opportunity to talk to Roger about a phenomenon that has become more apparent than ever in recent months!   Running Time: 42:20   Subscribe on iTunes   Find Tiffani on Social: Facebook Twitter LinkedIn   Find Roger Online: LinkedIn  Twitter    Roger's Book: When More is Not Better

Simone Menezes, Camila Provenzale and Philharmonic Zurich – Amazônia: Villa-Lobos - Glass (Alpha Classics) New Classical Tracks - Simone Menezes (radio edit) by “I think it's very funny that people think I am creative,” conductor Simone Menezes says. “I just I feel like the ideas are in the air and I just take them.”Menezes is a Brazilian conductor who is known for her creative approach. With her new recording, Amazônia, she says it was just “so obvious” that this project should focus on the Amazonian rainforest. Her goal was to make an important point with no speech, just music. In other words, it's art that goes straight to the heart.The centerpiece of the recording is a suite by Heitor Villa-Lobos, Floresta do Amazonas. It's a work that Menezes believes should be part of the standard repertoire.“My opinion is that this music has some very strong points,” she says. “The first one: It's an epic. It sounds somehow like Carmina Burana. It has this large aspect and sounds like monumental music. The second, because of Villa-Lobos' lyricism, is very touching. Sometimes we think about Latin American music as happy music. But in this case, it's deep music and the melodies come from the influence of fado, which is a deep Portuguese song.”Why did you want to bring the rainforest to the forefront through this music?“For me, the Amazonia is one of the biggest treasures of humanity. We should consider that we are in a beautiful garden that is this Earth, and we have our job as guardians of this garden. This project aims to make people see how touching and beautiful this place is.“And it's very funny that Villa-Lobos, when he wrote many pieces at the end of his life, he wrote, ‘Maybe my music is our letters from the posterity.' And I think this is the case with this piece now.”As you are leading this piece of music with the orchestra, is there a part of it that you really enjoy?“The most touching is the ending of the speech. It's called the ‘Epilogue,' or the very last movement, because it sums up everything. And the melody is sung by soprano Camila Provenzale, but she did not sing with lyrics. It's just a kind of vocalese with the orchestra. I have conducted this piece maybe 11 or 12 times recently, and this was the first time that I saw musicians crying during the concert.” Listen on YouTubeTo hear the rest of my conversation, click on the extended interview above, or download the extended podcast on iTunes or wherever you get your podcasts.ResourcesSimone Menezes, Camila Provenzale and Philharmonic Zurich – Amazônia: Villa-Lobos - Glass (Amazon)Simone Menezes, Camila Provenzale and Philharmonic Zurich – Amazônia: Villa-Lobos - Glass (Alpha Classics)Simone Menezes (official site)Camila Provenzale (official site)Philharmonic Zurich (official site)

Tom and I discussed one of our first beloved pens in this week's pen discussion when we started the fountain pen hobby. Then, as we talked about a variety of Edison pens, we started a debate. Does the term "handmade" fit these pens? Or, is it more accurate to say "hand-finished." Tom shares some of his experiences at the Lamy and Pelikan factories in Germany to describe the differences in manufacturing pens.   We'd love to read your comments and answer your pen (and fish) questions on a future episode. E-Mail us at pentertainmentpodcast@gmail.com If you'd like to shop for a new pen or try to get Tom fired, head over to our retail sponsor, Goldspot Pens at: https://goldspot.com/?aff=3 Use promo code PARIS to get an additional 10% off throughout the Goldspot Pens store. *Excludes Sailor, Retro 51, Montblanc, Visconti, Edison Pen Co., Esterbrook, Narwhal, and TWSBI products.* Also, be sure to put #firetom in the order comments and you might get a special Pentertainment Podcast sticker with your order.   Ballpoint pens suck. But, if you're going to write with a ballpoint pen, you might as well write with one that helps save the cute animals in the rainforest.    This Rainforest Retro51 is a Luxury Brands of America exclusive and is limited to 500 units worldwide. Inspired by the animals in the rainforest, Luxury Brands wanted to create a pen that you would love and give back some love to the world. With this in mind, Luxury Brands of America has partnered with the Rainforest Trust, one of the world's leading Rainforest and Endangered Species Conservation organizations, and is now a member of the Rainforest Trust Corporate Conservation Circle. With the purchase of this pen, a percentage of the proceeds has been donated to the Rainforest Trust, ensuring that these beautiful animals and landscapes are here to stay for generations to come!   Get the Retro 51 Rainforest here - https://luxurybrandsusa.com/product/retro51/

This week, Mary Ann and Alex had the pleasure of having TC reporter extraordinaire Dominic Madori-Davis as a guest on the show.  Here's what we got into:A quick update on the SBF trial, which quite frankly, has us all riveted.An Atlanta-based fintech startup called Rainforest's $8.25M equity raise and how it is hoping to take market share away from the likes of Stripe.A bunch of new fund raises this week, including At One's $375M climate-focused raise; Section 32's $525M fund close and Greylock's $1 billion haul. With so much capital flowing to VCs, it is more than a little mind-boggling that venture funding declined for yet another quarter in the three-month period ending September 30. But it did. Dom came on to talk about Fearless Fund's being barred from awarding grants to Black women founders and how how data can help improve social impact investing. Equity is back next week bright and early on Monday.

In today's kids story adventure, we're going to the Bornean rainforest with Nectar the Sun Bear as he searches for an animal who loves the sun more than him. Is it even possible? Let's find out, as he gets swept into a whirling river, booped around by a shark, and is caught up in a particularly sticky situation! Strap on your jetpack and away we gooooo!

First up, we'll unpack the unexpected as tech tycoon Elon Musk makes waves at the Texas-Mexico border, weighing in on the US immigration debate. Next, we'll venture into the heart of the Amazon, where a looming ecological crisis is gripping the rainforest. Thousands are feeling the impact of a severe drought, and we'll dissect the environmental and humanitarian ramifications of this unfolding crisis. For our third and final story, we explore Panama's challenging Darien Gap, where the number of migrants crossing has surged to a record-breaking 400,000.  BONUS EPISODES Patreon: ✨www.patreon.com/latinamericaneo✨
