You may know Lacy Nicole as Jesse Lally's girlfriend on “The Valley,” but this week, Scheana sits down to talk about the story that started long before Bravo cameras were ever rolling. From growing up with a parent battling addiction to living for years with undiagnosed Stage 4 endometriosis, Lacy opens up about the experiences that shaped her, why safety—not success—has always been her greatest goal, and how she's learned to stop apologizing for her past. The two also get into divorce, dating after heartbreak, blending families, co-parenting, and what it's really like loving someone whose life plays out on reality television. Plus, Lacy shares the truth behind her past conversations about joining “The Real Housewives of Orange County,” reveals why she ultimately passed on the opportunity, and whether she'd walk through that door if the opportunity came around again. Then it's time for a round of rapid-fire questions covering everything from Jesse's biggest "ick" moment to the last Instagram account she stalked, the last person she unfollowed on Instagram, and the rumor about herself that made her laugh. Scheana also shares her Flowers of the Week, highlighting the growing conversation around maternal mental health, before Lacy comes full circle…going from once being named Scheana's Jax-Hole of the Week to getting to name one herself.

This week's Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report covers the late-August transition across the Alabama Gulf Coast, from white marlin and sailfish offshore to mangrove snapper, bridge redfish, wade-fishing trout, white trout, flounder, and improving reef conditions. Butch Thierry is joined by Angelo DePaola, who opens the show with a look at Alabama's growing light-tackle billfish fishery and why September and October could be special months offshore. Capt. Ben Knight of Great Southern Fishing Charters kicks off the reports from Orange Beach, where mangrove snapper have been one of the most consistent late-summer bites around docks, rocks, jetties, bridge structure, and deeper current. He explains why croakers, spots, LYs, and small pogies can outproduce shrimp, and how the same Carolina-rig setup can lead to bonus flounder, redfish, and jack crevalle. Capt. Bobby Abruscato of A-Team Fishing follows with a Mississippi Sound and Dauphin Island report focused on speckled trout, wade fishing, Slick Juniors, popping corks, shrimp activity, white trout, flounder, and redfish. Bobby breaks down why hard bottom, grass, shell, bait, fish slicks, stealth, and boat positioning matter so much this time of year. The episode also includes a sponsor spotlight with Daniel and Ed Bejrowski of Slipski, who talk with Joe Baya about aluminum dock and boat-cover systems built for Gulf Coast conditions. Capt. Kendall Annan of Gulf Rebel Charters closes the show with an offshore report covering red snapper, triggerfish, beeliners, amberjack, grouper, Spanish and king mackerel, cobia, wahoo, dolphin, and tuna prospects, along with what he learns from diving and scouting reefs late in the season.

In the winter of 1864, two ships met their fate on one of the most remote and unforgiving stretches of the Southern Ocean. The Grafton and the Invercauld were wrecked thousands of miles from civilization, leaving their survivors stranded on the desolate Auckland Islands. What followed was a remarkable test of endurance, struggling against the cold, hunger and isolation that would see feats of remarkable ingenuity and the lowest of humanity leading to two very different survival stories, separated by only a few miles of wilderness and a very, very tall cliff.

Let's settle into my salty side today. Substrate is sort of out of favor with the reef aquarium hobby, for reasons which are remarkably similar to some of the ones we encounter in the botanical method aquarium world. We'llthe role which subsystems play in both natural reefs and home aquariums… a discussion about why we should reconsider a substrate.

Gareth Scott, the founder of Real Reef Rock, talks with Eric during the LA Pet Fair. The conversation highlights how the company developed a sustainable, man-made alternative to harvesting live rock from natural coral reefs, which was once the industry standard. Scott explains the transition from importing Tonga branch rock to manufacturing calcium-based substrates in the USA to prevent environmental degradation and the spread of aquarium pests. The episode covers the technical aspects of their aquaculture process, including how they achieve a purple coralline aesthetic and ensure biological stability. Key Takeaways: Opt for sustainably manufactured alternatives to protect natural habitats: Choose responsibly made materials rather than harvesting wild rocks from natural ocean reefs to help preserve delicate ecosystems. Select clean, pre-treated materials to avoid introducing unwanted pests: Use aquarium products that have been properly leached and stabilized to prevent issues like invasive hair algae, pests, and chemical instability. Establish your biological systems with precise, quantifiable starters: Use bottled bacteria when setting up a new system to ensure a predictable, healthy starting baseline instead of guessing what wild organisms survived transport. Utilize modular design pieces to customize your layout: Take advantage of sized, interlocking structures to build creative, personalized setups that maximize open space and flow. Overcome resistance to innovation to make your hobbies more enjoyable: Keep an open mind toward modern product alternatives that solve historical pain points and simplify your day-to-day maintenance.

Season 6 Episode #24 Karen Danlovich is coming from St. Augustine, Florida (inform, inspire, & transform)You can find Karen via her website tidalresilience.orgAbout our Guest: Karen is the Founder and Executive Director of Tidal Resilience Foundation, a nonprofit in coastal Florida supporting children and families navigating the loss of a parent or caregiver. Her life has been shaped by profound loss — losing her mom at nine, her dad at nineteen, and later her grandparents — experiences that taught her early what it means to survive deep grief and still keep moving forward. Karen built her career as an educator, teaching social studies, coaching dance, directing student programs, and later serving as an assistant principal. She also spent five seasons as an NFL cheerleader for the Jacksonville Jaguars, serving as team captain while teaching full‑time — a decade defined by discipline, leadership, and service. Her work today blends her educational background with the belief that the ocean is one of our greatest teachers. Through Tidal Resilience Foundation, she leads programs rooted in ocean‑based resilience, including Resilience Kits, Resilience Rides, community events, and The Reef, an online learning sanctuary offering free resources for families navigating the loss of a parent or caregiver. Each program is designed to help young people build grounding, emotional regulation, and connection as they move through grief. Karen's mission is simple and powerful: to turn her personal story into a shared one — creating a community where grieving children and families feel seen, supported, and strengthened. She believes that when we take care of the ocean, the ocean takes care of us, and that its lessons can guide families through even the roughest waters of loss.Karen, thanks for sharing your vulnerability with people all over the world, thanks for guiding families through difficult waters and thanks for being our guest on Life's Essential Ingredients…welcome to the show.TOTD – “When a great ship is in harbor and moored, it is safe, there can be no doubt.

Beijing summoned the ambassador of the Philippines to China on Tuesday and lodged solemn representations over Manila's deliberate provocation at Ren'ai Reef and attack on China Coast Guard law enforcement personnel on Monday.周二,中方紧急召见菲律宾驻华大使,就菲方周一在仁爱礁蓄意挑衅、袭击中国海警执法人员一事提出严正交涉。The Chinese Foreign Ministry, in a statement, described the acts as egregious, noting that the Philippines initiated the provocation and then sought to shift the blame onto China, distorted the facts and maliciously hyped up the incident.外交部发表声明指出,菲方上述行为性质恶劣;菲方挑衅在先,事后却倒打一耙、歪曲事实,恶意炒作此次海上事件。The statement said China Coast Guard operations in waters near the reef were justified and lawful, and the country would take measures to firmly safeguard its territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests.声明强调,中国海警在仁爱礁附近海域开展执法活动合理合法,中方将采取一切必要措施,坚定捍卫自身领土主权与海洋权益。Addressing a regular news briefing, Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian stressed that Ren'ai Reef is part of China's Nansha Islands and is Chinese territory.外交部发言人林剑在例行记者会上强调,仁爱礁是中国南沙群岛的组成部分,主权属于中国。A Philippine military vessel has remained illegally grounded at Ren'ai Reef since May 9, 1999, despite Manila's repeated commitments to remove it.1999年5月9日以来,菲律宾一艘军舰在仁爱礁非法坐滩,尽管菲方多次承诺将该舰拖离,却始终未兑现承诺。Lin urged the Philippines to honor its commitments, immediately stop maritime provocations and false narratives, and exercise effective restraint over its frontline personnel.林剑敦促菲方恪守承诺,立即停止海上挑衅与虚假舆论造势,并有效约束一线人员言行。"Otherwise, the Philippines will bear all consequences arising from its actions," he added.他补充道:如若不然,菲方必须承担自身行径引发的一切后果。Lin said that in July 2024, China and the Philippines reached a provisional arrangement on humanitarian resupply missions to the grounded vessel based on China's three-point principled position, adding that China's position remains unchanged.林剑表示,2024年7月,中方基于三点原则立场,与菲方就坐滩军舰人道主义生活物资补给达成临时安排,中方这一立场至今未变。"If the Philippines were to attempt to build fixed facilities or permanent outpost, China will absolutely not accept it and will resolutely stop it in accordance with the law and regulations," Lin said.林剑称:倘若菲方试图在礁上修建固定设施、永久哨所,中方绝对不会接受,并将依法依规坚决予以制止。China Coast Guard spokesman Jiang Lue said that on Tuesday morning, China allowed the Philippine side, on humanitarian grounds, to use a boat to transfer the injured sailor to Philippine Coast Guard vessel No 9702. The China Coast Guard contacted the Philippine vessel to verify the purpose of the operation and monitored the process throughout, Jiang said.中国海警局发言人姜略表示,周二上午,中方从人道主义角度出发,允许菲方船只将受伤水手转运至菲律宾9702号海警船。中方海警全程与菲方船只沟通核实行动目的,并全程监督转运全过程。With Foreign Minister Wang Yi set to attend the China-ASEAN Foreign Ministers' Meeting in Manila on Wednesday, Lin, the Foreign Ministry spokesman, said it is worth noting that whenever China and the Philippines prepare for dialogue or engagement, or whenever a major regional diplomatic event approaches, certain forces invariably seek to stir up trouble over maritime issues.王毅外长将于周三赴马尼拉出席中国—东盟外长会。外交部发言人林剑指出,一个值得警惕的现象是:每逢中菲即将开展对话交往、或是地区重大外交活动临近之际,总有某些势力刻意借海上问题制造事端。"As to where the facts and merits of the issue lie and who is pulling the strings behind the scenes, I believe it's plain for all to see. China's policy on neighborhood diplomacy remains consistent and unchanged," he said.他表示:事件孰是孰非、谁在幕后操纵,世人有目共睹。中方周边外交政策一以贯之,从未改变。Lin said East Asian cooperation platforms are not appropriate venues for discussing bilateral maritime disputes, calling on the Philippines to fulfill its responsibilities as ASEAN chair by promoting dialogue and cooperation rather than putting its own political interests above regional peace and stability.林剑表示,东亚合作相关平台并非讨论双边海上争端的合适场合;菲方作为东盟轮值主席国,应当履行自身责任,推动对话合作,而非将本国政治私利凌驾于地区和平稳定之上。He Xianqing, an associate researcher at the National Institute for South China Sea Studies, said that Manila was seeking international attention and sympathy from ASEAN countries by portraying China as a coercive bully on purpose. It also tried to give the illegal and invalid "2016 Arbitral Award on the South China Sea" greater practical effect and deterrent force — a development that warrants vigilance.中国南海研究院副研究员何贤清分析,菲律宾刻意将中国塑造成强势施压一方,以此博取国际社会与东盟国家的关注与同情;菲方还企图赋予2016年非法无效的南海仲裁案裁决更多实际效力与威慑力,这一动向值得高度警惕。Zhu Feng, a professor at Nanjing University's School of International Studies, said the Philippines had sought backing from the United States and Japan as it escalated tensions with China in the South China Sea for narrow domestic political purposes.南京大学国际关系学院朱锋教授表示,菲律宾出于狭隘国内政治考量,不断在南海制造紧张局势,同时寻求美日两国撑腰支持。provocation /ˌprɒvəˈkeɪʃn/ n.挑衅、滋事solemn representations严正交涉egregious /ɪˈɡriːdʒiəs/ adj.性质极其恶劣的、骇人听闻的provisional arrangement临时安排、暂行协议

Mastering water flow in our reef tanks is critical for a thriving healthy reef aquarium. For years, reef keepers have focused on lighting, filtration, and water chemistry—but what if we've been overlooking one of the most important factors for coral health and growth?In this episode of The Coral Reef Talk Podcast, I sit down with Mark Coates, founder of Ocean Sea Wave, to discuss his journey designing one of the most unique water movement systems in the reef aquarium hobby, the Ocean Sea Waves. Mark shares the story behind the Ocean Sea Wave, the science and inspiration behind creating true 3-dimensional water flow, and why he believes natural water movement could be the missing piece for thriving reef aquariums.Whether you're just starting your reef tank or have been reefing for decades, this conversation will challenge the way you think about water flow, water movement and may completely change your approach to creating a healthier reef aquarium.Visit https://oceanseaproducts.comto learn more about the ocean sea waves and what Mark Coates has to offer.

In this episode of Collecting Fish, James Hepworth explores the beauty, complexity, and controversy surrounding marine aquariums — from clownfish and coral reefs to the realities of recreating an ocean ecosystem at home. James examines:Reef tanks and fish-only marine systemsWater chemistry and salinityMarine filtration and live rockSustainable fishkeepingBeginner mistakesThe emotional pull of recreating an ocean ecosystem at home.Alongside practical advice for first-time marine hobbyists, James reflects on the ethical tensions within saltwater fishkeeping, including wild-caught fish, coral collection, environmental damage, and species unsuitable for most home aquariums.Blending practical guidance with personal reflection, this episode explores why marine fishkeeping continues to captivate hobbyists — despite the responsibility, expense, and uncertainty that comes with it.
This week, we hear from Jameson and Mary Reeder, authors of Rescue at the Reef. They share the miraculous story of their ten-year-old son, Jameson Jr., who narrowly survived a devastating bull shark attack in the Florida Keys. Despite a life-altering injury, Jameson Jr.’s faith remained unshaken, and just four days later, he asked to return to the reef. Later in the episode, we hear from Greta Eskridge, author and homeschool mom of four, who shares her story of healing after her husband Aaron confessed to an affair and a years-long pornography addiction. While working to heal the damage to their marriage, Greta became convinced that parents must break the silence around this issue and initiate difficult conversations with their kids about pornography.

And when you focus on your Father over the fear, then freedom rises.” - Jameson Reeder “Cultivating connection isn’t about these singular once-a-year, twice-a-year big moments. It’s everyday intentional time spent with one another.” - Greta Eskridge “We need to have conversations about pornography and the disconnection that it causes.” - Greta Eskridge “Out of that brokenness [of betrayal] has come a desire for both of us to not only cultivate meaningful, intentional, lasting connection as a couple, but also with our children, with friends, because not only have we experienced the disconnection ourselves, but we have recognized that our world is becoming increasingly more disconnected.” - Greta Eskridge “As much as [my husband] wanted to escape addiction, the nature of addiction is that it is very hard to do that on your own, and he needed support.” - Greta Eskridge “Beginning to understand what [my husband] was dealing with was impactful for me to have compassion and understanding for him..Being willing to do that and pursue my own healing as a betrayed spouse at the same time, those two things were transformative, and really, honestly, what changed everything for both of us.” - Greta Eskridge “When we allow ourselves to have that conversation [about pornography] with our kids or with one another, it takes away the power of the thing, and it reduces the shame. Shame tells us this is the end. But when we bring it into the light, it loses its power.” - Greta Eskridge “It’s incredible how much can change just by simply opening the door to honest, heartfelt conversation.” - Greta Eskridge ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!

PATREON IS HERE: www.patreon.com/dopeypodcast This week on Dopey! We kick things off with the aftermath of the first-ever Dopey Short Recovery Film Festival—Dave's post-event crash, gratitude, Knicks withdrawal, listener emails, Dean Moda Patreon comments, meth-sex insanity, Monkey Man research, and a wild voicemail about shooting someone up for the first time. Then Dr. Reef Karim comes on! They explore why Dopey works as an underdog podcast, creativity in recovery, building an addiction treatment center that blended psychiatry with spirituality, and why storytelling may be one of the most powerful recovery tools available. Reef opens up about walking away from a successful career in medicine after severe burnout, chronic pain, and anxiety led him to question everything. That journey eventually took him into the Amazon with Gabor Maté for an unforgettable ayahuasca retreat, where he experienced terrifying visions, confronted years of accumulated trauma, and ultimately found a new direction for his life. Dave and Reef also dive into ketamine, ibogaine, psychedelics in addiction treatment, authenticity versus attachment, cognitive flexibility, recovery as a lifelong process, and whether there's ever such a thing as being "fully recovered." Plus Dave closes the show with updates on the family road trip, DopeyCon planning, Safe Spot overdose prevention, and more. ALL THAT AND MORE! On this less than completely dopey new episode of the good old dopey show! Excelsior! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Expert in bass-heavy arsonism and heavily dubbed-out stunts, REEF resident Esposito clocks in with a most massive two-hour rollout of blazing riddims and stripped-down techno voodooism. Engineering a surgical mix of sub-fueled menace, steely horsepower and rattling drumwork on the prowl, Esposito has us submerged in an all-engulfing, woofer-busting blast of dub esotericism and prototypical UK bass assault. Dishing out a turbulent blend of aggressive machine funk, stormy breaks and liquid reverbs with unrelenting poise, bar after bar, the SPE:C affiliate fires off a much brutal reminder of why he's one of the best in the game when it comes to bridging dubstep and techno in the most volatile, hi-octane way possible.

Mattie Sims has built brands at Lululemon, Electronic Arts, Reef, and Rally Pickleball — and along the way developed a framework for brand building that most founders skip entirely. Now she's applying everything she's learned to two ventures at once: Courier, a performance sock brand built around the idea of the "Renaissance athlete," and Mate the Agency, a brand strategy firm working with founders across industries. In this conversation, Mattie walks through the muse framework she learned at Lululemon and has refined across every role since — why the most important question isn't "who buys this product" but "what is this person worried about when their head hits the pillow at night." She also gets into why looking branded is not the same as having a brand, what happened when Rally discovered their customers weren't there for pickleball, and why having her son was the thing that finally convinced her she could be an entrepreneur. Plus: why niching down is the thing every founder is most afraid of, how Courier is building a cultural movement around versatile excellence, and the Red Bull receptionist whose casual suggestion became a billion-dollar product strategy.

Experiential learning through travel changes students for good — and Denver science and CTE teacher Angela Cannava proves any teacher can lead it. In this episode of the 10 Minute Teacher Podcast, Angela shares how curriculum-aligned international trips with EF Explore America transformed her students: a forensics lab in Great Britain where they did real DNA fingerprinting, and a Belize Ridge-to-Reef conservation expedition with a midnight bat workshop. She tells the story of a student who barely spoke in three years coming home changed, and a Belize traveler now headed back to work at the conservation NGO he visited on the trip. In this episode, you'll learn: - Why curriculum-aligned travel makes lessons "stick" long after the trip ends - How travel transforms your relationships with students — and the culture of your whole classroom - The two things to nail before your first trip: a diverse chaperone team and clear student expectations - How to make international travel doable on a teacher's schedule by partnering with a tour company - Why the learning ripples out even to the students who stayed home Read the full show notes and resources at https://www.coolcatteacher.com/e942 Sponsor. Today's show is sponsored by EF Explore America and their STEM Tours. Lead your students on a STEM tour to places on the cutting edge of innovation to show them how STEM thinking often shows up where you least expect it. Imagine your students coding robots with MassRobotics at MIT, exploring marine ecosystems in Florida's coral reefs, or even sitting down to talk with a former spy in Washington DC.

Scientists have discovered that marine species are migrating away from the equator at a rate of 40 to 70 kilometres per decade to get to cooler waters as climate change heats up our ocean.But far from being a viable escape plan, this mass poleward relocation of marine life is opening up a sea of problems.On this week's episode of Word on the Reef, hosts Tanya Murphy and Brett Goodban are joined by James Cook University's Professor Jan Strugnell for a deep dive into climate-driven marine species redistribution on the Great Barrier Reef and beyond.Thumbnail Image: A spine-cheeked anemonefish, photographed by Tanya Murphy at Ellison Reef, near Mission Beach - 140 kilometres south of its usual range.

Every year up to 7,000 tons of seafood is caught on the Great Barrier Reef, while up to 190 tons of coral is collected for the international aquarium trade. But how sustainable are these fisheries? And as consumers, how can we make sure we're making Reef-friendly choices?In this episode of Word on the Reef, Simon Miller from the Australian Marine Conservation Society joins hosts Tanya Murphy and Brett Goodban for a deep dive into the world of commercial fishing on the Great Barrier Reef.Don't worry - you can still have an aquarium and eat seafood!

Did you know that some Great Barrier Reef fish species are spending part of their life cycle in the middle of our city? That's right, marine fish species could be as close as your nearest concrete storm water drain, swimming among abandoned shopping trolleys and discarded beer bottles. In fact, recent research has found more than 60 species of native fish in these waterways.On todays' episode of Word on the Reef, host Tanya Murphy is joined by Phil Laycock from OzFish Unlimited, to explore the amazing biodiversity of our urban waterways, what's being done to restore their habitat, and how we can learn to be better neighbours to our fishy friends.

A lot of past guests have mentioned Elizabeth Hargrave's Wingspan as an answer to a question. Whether as the current game, 60 minute game, or just in passing, there is no denying Wingspan's impact on the industry since its debut in 2019. It was nominated for, and won, lots of awards that year and in 2020. It has had four expansions so far with a fifth in the distant queue according to the Stonemeir emails.Its deeper impact came in 2024 with the release of Wyrmspan, a reimaging, or reimplementation, of Wingspan, by Connie Vogelman with additional development by Hargrave. In this version, dragons replace the birds. Wyrmspan has an expansion as well.Then, last year, a third game entered the Span world, Finspan, and that game is the focus of this episode. Finspan was designed by David Gordon and Michael O'Connell. In this rendition, the birds and dragons have been replaced with fish. Each of the games in the Span world have varied the mechanics of the original.In Finspan, you are, according to the BGG page, a marine researcher seeking to observe aquatic life. You place fish in one of three zones, in one of three tracks, to dive down and observe. The marine researcher with the most points at the end of four weeks (or rounds) is the winner.Gather your fellow divers, and let's take a look at the Rule Clarity for Finspan.

Andrew found the weird cat game he mentioned: it’s Catlantis. 0:22:20 1,2,3 – Tidal Blades 2! We give our thoughts on Tidal Blades 2: Rise of the Unfolders. We really enjoyed this game, but it is a LOT. (First play conversation was originally from episode 415.) 0:28:10 after the second play We get a little more comfortable with the largeness of the game. 0:40:30 after the third play Verdict: We think Tidal Blades 2: Rise of the Unfolders is overall a better game than Tidal Blades: Heroes of the Reef. Are we going to come back to this game and play it more and more? Maybe. We really enjoy this game. It’s immersive, and when we start playing we don’t really want to stop. But we need to allow 3+ hours for a play session. And that’s really hard for us to do. And we don’t have the space to leave it set up. Maybe we can at least play it a few more times over the kids’ summer vacation? We recommend this to families with a heavy caveat: this is a big game that requires a big commitment. 0:58:40 New Backtalk Question Last week we talked about the game or game type you can’t help but buy. This week, let’s flip the question. Is there a game you want, but you won’t let yourself get? Maybe it’s too expensive, maybe you just know it won’t get played in your house.

Meanwhile, James is being advertised to, Amanda plans unique roadtrips, and Curt solicits legal advice. Up-Goer Five (Amanda Edition): Today our friends talk about animals that have green friends that make hard bits. These animals that make hard parts are really important today because they make good places for other animals to live. But we don't know all about them and where they first came from and how they first started making hard parts for places to live. So the first paper looks at where these animals that make hard parts for other animals to live in come from. They look at really early animals that make hard parts and show what kinds of places they live in, and also how they stick themselves to the bottom. It looks like different animals got started in different ways, then went out to all sorts of different places and got better at making hard parts for other animals to live in, until that was all they could do. The second paper talks about a bad time when everything died and how animals that make hard parts for other things to live in all died and tiny things we can't see without making them look big took over from them. At this time there were different animals that made hard parts for other animals to live in that lived together to make big areas of hard parts, but then they all died and never came back. But when we look at the rocks we find that tiny things we can't see without making them look big are all over the place while the animals that make hard bits for other animals to live in all die. This paper talks a lot about rocks, but the important thing is that they think the tiny things we can't see without making them look big might be the kind of thing that takes over all the places when times are bad and everything dies, but that might not be the case.

Kevin Crispin from the Behind Beautiful Things Podcast fills in for Brent this week, and the universe rewards him with two gloriously broken news stories. First up, a bizarre and unsettling case involving prescription meds and behavior so reckless it sounds made up. Then it's off to the Bahamas, where sharks have apparently been sampling the full human experience: cocaine, caffeine, and painkillers. Modern life is poison, the ocean is on drugs, and somehow this is still a comedy podcast!Links & Resources
