Now here's your hosts, Alan Hall, Joel Saxon, Phil Totaro, and Rosemary Barnes.  Allen Hall: And welcome back to the Uptown Wind Energy Podcast. I'm here with Rosemary Barnes, Joel Saxon, and Phil Ro. Uh, crazy week. Again, I don't know how else to describe it. The, I was just telling our producer this morning that there's so much news coming out where it seemed like to be a little bit of a lull after the US House bill, but it's picked right back up again. And one of the more exciting things that's happened is A owns closed a $62 million series B. Uh, led by Activate Capital and S two G with, uh, revenue growing at Aeros by about 300% in 2024, and they are getting a lot of requests from [00:01:00] operators in the United States and elsewhere to fix their wind turbine blades. They have been working pretty closely with GE Renova and NextEra. Over the last, what Joel say two years, maybe a little bit longer on a number of problems.  Joel Saxum: Yeah. A couple years they've been doing, uh, bespoke solutions for both of them. They've also been doing their, you know, standard things that they're rolling out to the rest of the market. But I think this is a good thing. In one article that I was reading, there is like a tier one operator starting to adopt it, right? So. Everybody was kind of approaching that robotic thing, like, yeah, it looks like it's the future and, you know, but a little trepid, right? Dipping a toe in or dipping a finger into the water, trying it out. But now it seems like, hey, we got an LEP campaign, coones, we've got this robotics problem we wanna solve, collar owns. So they're starting to get more and more adoption and, and that shows, right, 300%, uh, revenue growth in 2024. So that's, that's huge, right? To, to hit that kind of number. So now it's up to, uh, scaling up. Uh, the only thing that can cap that number is the amount of robots that they can put outta the [00:02:00] factory over there in Riga.  Allen Hall: And we visited their facility in the United States about a year ago. It was just outside of Dallas, near Lake Dallas of all places. And it is a decent sized facility, but at the time we, when we walked around out back, you just noticed a whole bunch of, uh, parking lot spaces with trailers and capabilities for robots and thought, wow, that there's a lot of robot, uh, sitting in the parking lot. And, uh. But then they had, when I asked they, they said, oh, they had a ton of crews already out in the field working. So they do have the ability to get to a number of turbine sites. I, I guess maybe still not enough from what I hear, there's, the demand has gone through the roof.  Joel Saxum: Well, it's, it's a really interesting, or really cool, I guess, opportunity for technicians. So that's one of the things that robotics does is it addresses the technician shortage. You got a technician shortage, great, let's use robots. Then we can start, uh, having that force multiplier, right? Because you could run robots on two turbines from one control van.

80: Hostel Fires

The Last Trip

When we talk about travel nightmares, we often picture what lurks outside - dark alleys, strangers with bad intentions, stories that begin with a missed train or a wrong run. But sometimes… the danger is already inside. Today, we're opening the door on something even more haunting: fire.  Sudden. Consuming, Unforgiving. Because for some travelers, the scariest part of their journey wasn't a distant unknown - it was their bed. Their room. The place they thought they were safest. In this episode, we're telling the stories of four devastating hostel fires: The Childers Palace Backpackers Hostel in Australia, where young backpackers from around the world came chasing sunshine and freedom - and never made it home. The Downunder Hostel fire in Sydney, Australia - where a broken alarm system and locked exits turned a simple stay into a fatal trap. A fire in Riga, Latvia - swift and deadly - inside an illegal hostel that should never have been open at all. And the Loafers Lodge fire in Wellington, New Zealand, where residents living in budget rooms were left scrambling for their lives in the early hours of the morning. Each of these stories is different. But they all ask the same, terrifying question: What happens when your escape route disappears?This isn't about fear. It's about awareness. Because travel should feel like possibility, not risk.  Hostels should be spaces of laughter and late-night stories - not loss.So stay with me, as we retrace the final hours inside these hostels. We'll ask what went wrong… and what we can learn from the people who never got the chance to check out. Do you have a story to share?

L'endettement des ménages belges et des entreprises est au plus bas depuis 2015. Mais l'épargne ne rapporte pas grand-chose. Le rendement des nouveaux bons d'État est très faible. Alors que faire de son argent? Et pourquoi pas l'investir dans des entreprises pour favoriser l'émergence de strart-ups? On en parle avec l'invitée du Brief. Mathilde Riga est une jeune entrepreneuse. Elle a lancé Kult Kefir, une boisson fermentée sans alcool qui se pose en alternative saine aux sodas traditionnels. Etudiante en bio-ingé à Londres pendant le covid, elle s'amusait à laisser fermenter des aliments dans la cuisine. Elle en a fait un vrai business finalement. Kult Kefir est présent dans 15 pays européen et vise les 3 millions d'euros de chiffre d'affaires. Mais attention, alarme Mathilde Riga, le dérapage des finances publiques peut avoir une influence sur le business des entreprises et les priver de subsides importants. À Bruxelles particulièrement, l'absence de gouvernement depuis près d'un an, risque de peser sur l'action d'organes d'aide aux entreprises comme hub.brussels.

Travelhacking von Luxusreisen zum Eco-Preis! Fabian Hilpert reist, seit er 18 Jahre alt ist, um die Welt. Als günstige Alternative hat es ihn anfangs als Ultralight‑Abenteurer in den Norden Europas verschlagen, da man dort mit dem Zelt quasi umsonst reisen konnte. So entwickelte es sich, dass Fabian schon in jungen Jahren mehrere Jahre lang mehr als 6 Monate im Jahr im Zelt unterwegs war. Neben einem intensiven Reiseleben hat Fabian mit einem Ingenieurstudium in Wien begonnen und es schließlich mit drei Auslandssemestern in Moskau und Peking als Diplomingenieur abgeschlossen. Um sich das Studium im Ausland finanzieren zu können, hat Fabian früh nach Wegen gesucht, online zu arbeiten, und schließlich 2012 eine Werbeagentur für Google Ads gegründet, um mit einem Laptop von unterwegs aus zu arbeiten. Noch bevor der Name „Digital Nomad“ im deutschsprachigen Raum so richtig bekannt wurde, hat Fabian sich mit Leuten zusammengetan, um gemeinsam als reisende Unternehmer an Projekten zu arbeiten und sich die Arbeit in der neuen digitalen Economy zu teilen. So bestand die Werbeagentur am Höhepunkt aus über 10-15 reisenden Mitarbeitern, die oft gemeinsam Workations organisierten. Getrieben von dem Gedanken, Neues zu entdecken, hat sich Fabian dann für einen Auslandszivildienst in Riga, Moskau und Shanghai entschieden und konnte so neben neuen Erfahrungen auch die Fremdsprachen Russisch und Chinesisch vertiefen. Durch ein gutes Netzwerk in der damals neuen Digital Nomad‑Szene im deutschsprachigen Raum fand Fabian früh den Weg als Speaker zu Konferenzen und positionierte sich als einer der Pioniere der Szene. 2017 gründete er zusätzlich das Projekt „Business2travel“, um anderen Menschen diesen Lifestyle näherzubringen. Neben dem Coaching und Training für Leute, die auf Reisen arbeiten möchten, hat Fabian schließlich auch Unternehmen und Regierungen beraten, welche systemischen Voraussetzungen und Infrastruktur nötig sind, um digitale Nomaden anzuziehen. In seiner Zeit an den Universitäten hat Fabian mehrere wegweisende wissenschaftliche Arbeiten rund um das Thema digitales Nomadentum veröffentlicht und diese auf zahlreichen Konferenzen in der deutschen und internationalen Community präsentiert. Dadurch hat er diesen Lifestyle einer neuen Zielgruppe nähergebracht, die damit zuvor noch nicht vertraut war. Da das Budget anfangs begrenzt war, hatte er schon früh das Bedürfnis, auch mit wenig Geld bequem und luxuriös zu reisen. Deshalb suchte er nach Tricks und Hacks, um gratis Upgrades beim Fliegen und in Hotels zu erhalten sowie durch Punkte und Meilen günstiger zu reisen. Da Fabian schon früh präsent auf Social Media war und stets über sein Reiseleben informierte, kamen immer öfter die Fragen, wie es für einen Studenten möglich sei, in Luxussuiten an den schönsten Orten der Welt zu leben und immer luxuriöser zu reisen. Daraus entwickelte sich früh ein Coaching für digitale Nomaden, das den Teilnehmern die Statusprogramme und Punktesysteme der Reiseindustrie näherbringen sollte. Da die Nachfrage nach diesem Wissen stieg, legte Fabian immer mehr Fokus auf die Vermarktung dieses Wissens – noch bevor Begriffe wie „Travelhacking“ und „Lifehacking“ richtig bekannt wurden. Seit 2020 bietet Fabian sein Programm Elite Travelhacking an, in dem er sein Wissen zur Verfügung stellt. Das Programm ist mittlerweile stark gewachsen und gilt heute als das umfassendste Travelhacking‑Programm im deutschsprachigen Raum. In der Community versammeln sich namhafte Extremreisende, Abenteurer und einige der bekanntesten Online-Unternehmer der Szene. Es gibt verschiedene Angebote für Anfänger und Fortgeschrittene. Das Programm wird laufend weiterentwickelt und wurde mittlerweile auch um den „Elite Travelhacking Platinum Circle“, einen Concierge‑Service für anspruchsvolle Reisende, sowie um ein eigenes US‑Kreditkartenprogramm erweitert. Fabian widmet sein Leben im Moment intensiv dem Elite Travelhacking Programm, hat inzwischen mehr als 100 Länder bereist, lebt fast durchgehend in Hotels und testet ständig neue Travelhacks für und mit der Elite Travelhacking Community.

About the Lecture: In this presentation, Karnes will talk about Maija Tabaka, who was the first Soviet citizen to be awarded the DAAD fellowship. Tabaka unwittingly opened doors to over a decade of artistic exchanges between Riga and West Berlin. She also provided an enduring model for arranging such collaborations, with offices of the Latvian KGB partnering with Latvian emigres to broker relationships, awards, and creative possibilities. Mining archives in Berlin and Riga, this talk traces the origins of such exchanges in the 1970s, their evolution in the time of perestroika, and their end in an ill-fated endeavor to support the dream of the Latvian musician Hardijs Lediņš to record with Laurie Anderson in a newly reunited Berlin. About the Speaker: Kevin C. Karnes is Samuel Candler Dobbs Professor of Music and Divisional Dean of Arts at Emory University and Visiting Professor of Musicology at the Jāzeps Vītols Latvian Academy of Music. His most recent book is Sounds Beyond: Arvo Pärt and the 1970s Soviet Underground (2021). His latest research considers techno music and club culture as both product and reflection of transnational exchange across reimagined European borders at the turn of the 1990s.

En 1969, Juan Manuel Bellón fue bautizado como el nuevo Arturo Pomar. Cinco veces campeón nacional, es hoy el decano de los grandes maestros españoles, alguien que puede presumir de haberse enfrentado a casi todos los campeones mundiales del tablero. Hoy, en ‘Cuentos, jaques y leyendas’, Roberto López y Manuel Azuaga rinden tributo en vida a uno de los personajes más queridos por la familia del ajedrez, Juan Manuel Bellón López, el único ajedrecista español que, junto a Ruy López de Seguro, ha puesto su nombre a una apertura teórica, el gambito Bellón. En cierta ocasión, le preguntaron a Míjail Tal, el mago de Riga, por cuál era el jugador que más se le parecía en el tablero. Tal respondió: «Viktor Kupreichik y Juan Manuel Bellón». En ‘Enroque corto’, tiene voz Ignasi Vidal, director de cine y teatro, actor y, en sus ratos libres, apasionado ajedrecista.

Memory and truth are malleable and nowhere more so than in the Soviet Union.  To be a writer in that country was to face an ongoing dilemma: conform to State-mandated topics and themes, or consign oneself to obscurity, writing only for “the desk drawer” or “without permission.” Vasily Grossman challenged that binary choice, creating some of the most compelling and uncompromising fiction and journalism of the century, but also enduring heartbreaking censorship. Her excellent new biography, Vasily Grossman and the Soviet Century (Yale University Press, 2019) brings the life and work of this often-overlooked writer into brilliant focus. Biography of a writer — particularly one with Grossman's output — can be tricky to pull off, but Popoff's extensive research is elegantly arranged into a very readable narrative, in which we follow Grossman through the harrowing experiences of witnessing first hand, famine in the 1920s, the Terror of the 1930s, the carnage of World War II, and the dull ache of censorship in the post-war Soviet Union. Jennifer Eremeeva is an American expatriate writer who divides her time between Riga, Latvia, and New England.  Jennifer writes about travel, food, lifestyle, and Russian history and culture with bylines in Reuters, Fodor's, The Moscow Times, and Russian Life.  She is the in-house travel blogger for Alexander & Roberts, and the award-winning author of  Lenin Lives Next Door:  Marriage, Martinis, and Mayhem in Moscow.  Follow Jennifer on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook or visit jennifereremeeva.com for more information.    Learn more about your ad choices.
