The Old Timers find themselves in another plane of existence, or perhaps something outside of even that, and explore their branching timelines to try and figure out a way to get back to their past just in time to set things right. They learn more about The Stranger and about how they might succeed in completing their journey, but not everyone makes it out the same.Music and Sound Effects:“Intro” by Abigail McDonald“Lost in Time” by Aiyo at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Descends to Rise” by DEX 1200 & Hanna Ekström at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Epic Mirage” by Hanna Lindgrin at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Two Three on E” by Franz Gordon at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Winterstorm II: A Cinematic And Ambient Soundscape” by kjartan_abel at (Freesound.org)“Bonus: All in a Garden Green (Orchestral Version)” by Axletree at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)
Another helpful hand discovers the group, as The Old Timers meet Oldest Neil. They talk with him about his life moving through different times in the tunnels, seeking out all of the scattered versions of The Old Timers in order to help them find a potential way out, and to pick up some extra Neils along the way. Oldest Neil and Neil have a personal talk about their paths in life, and after Oldest Neil departs to find others in need of assistance, the group does something of the time warp again (and again) until they reach a strange threshold.Music and Sound Effects:“Intro” by Abigail McDonald“Winterstorm II: A Cinematic And Ambient Soundscape” by kjartan_abel at (Freesound.org)“Lost in Time” by Aiyo at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Thread the Needle” by Gavin Luke at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Descends to Rise” by DEX 1200 & Hanna Ekström at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Bonus: All in a Garden Green (Orchestral Version)” by Axletree at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)
Face to Face with different versions of themselves who have been trapped down in the tunnels underneath Queen Maud for far longer than they have, The Old Timers have a brief confrontation with The Older Timers, who are scared and struggling. Before much can be said, though, a fight breaks out as corruption takes hold… and yet another familiar face joins the fray.Music and Sound Effects:“Intro” by Abigail McDonald“Eyes That Follow” by Abigail McDonald“Glacier” by Anna Dager & Hanna Ekström at (www.epidemicsound.com)“It All Ends Now” by Hampus Naeselius at (www.epidemicsound.com)Two Three on E” by Franz Gordon at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Winterstorm II: A Cinematic And Ambient Soundscape” by kjartan_abel at (Freesound.org)“Bonus: All in a Garden Green (Orchestral Version)” by Axletree at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)

After making it off of the service elevator and into the caverns below Queen Maud, The Old Timers walk hand in hand into the unknown. Once in the unknown, it proves difficult to return to anything they knew before. Running in place, walking in circles, or something less comprehensible, the group finds themselves lost through time but stuck in the same ever-changing place. But on the bright side, they're stuck with some familiar faces.Music and Sound Effects:“Intro” by Abigail McDonald"Eyes That Follow” by Abigail McDonald“The Lonely Traveler" by Franz Gordon at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Glacier” by Anna Dager & Hanna Ekström at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Bonus: All in a Garden Green (Orchestral Version)” by Axletree at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)
First woman in Antarctica — Jackie Ronne's story. Who was the first female Antarctic explorer? This episode explores the life of Jackie Ronne, the pioneering woman who joined a U.S. Antarctic expedition and overwintered on the continent in the 1940s. Polar historian Dr. Joanna Kafarowski explains how women were long barred from expeditions, why Ronne's presence was controversial, and the scientific goals of the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition—from mapping coastlines to geophysics and meteorology. Beyond survival, Ronne handled communications, reporting, and leadership during intense conflict on the ice. We also examine her later influence on Antarctic policy, public awareness, and tourism, and why her contributions were often overlooked in history. A story about exploration, gender barriers, and the human side of Antarctica.Episode Guest: Dr. Joanna KafarowskiVisit Dr. Kafarowski's website hereConnect with Dr. Kafarowski on LinkedInFind: Antarctic Pioneer: the Trailblazing Life of Jackie RonneFind: The Polar Adventures of a Rich American Dame: The Life of Lousie Arner BoydEpisode Transcript and more information on the Pine Forest Media WebsiteFollow Pine Forest Media on Instagram @pineforestmediaHosted, produced, written, and edited by Clark Marchese Cover art and PFM logo by Laurel Wong.

The Old Timers are separated by some sort of supernatural force before they can reach the bottom of the elevator shaft, and one by one they are presented new landscapes and conversations with both strange and familiar faces, while some deeper presence hiding below the surface confronts them.(This is the last episode of Act 3 of “Fire and Smoke: New Ronne”.

Queen Maud is without a leader, The Guards are without their Lord Admin, The Hydra has lost its head. But there is more to be done before The Old Timers can delve deeper to search for a way to travel back to their own time. The group works with The Scientist to keep Queen Maud together for those that want to remain here, but with new form and a more just function. Avis, Devon, and Neil mend their relationship with Kid, and The Old Timers become even closer with better understanding. Goodbyes are given and new paths are laid out for everyone as The Old Timers make their way into a long forgotten access shaft that goes down, deep underneath the Earth, to some mysterious entity.Music and Sound Effects:“Intro” by Abigail McDonald“Mimicry” by Gavin Luke at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Chronicle of a Monday” by Franz Gordon at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Muddy Meadows” by Franz Gordon at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Cobweb Morning” by Kai Engel at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)“Theme of Uncertainty” by William Claeson at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Midst of Life” by Christoffer Moe Ditlevsen, Anna Dager, &Hanna Ekström at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Fay in Mist” by Magnus Ludvigsson at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Anxiety Attack” by Bonnie Grace at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Tvivel” by Hanna Ekström & Anna Dager at (www.epidemicsound.com)“A World Behind” by Hanna Lindgren at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Irresolute” by Anna Landström, Hanna Ekström, & Anna Dager at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Sad Clowns” by Alexandra Woodward at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Bonus: All in a Garden Green (Orchestral Version)” by Axletree at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)
In this very special bonus episode of the TreesForDev podcast we are joined by Project PI Maria Ehrnström-Fuentes and Péronne. Aude describes herself as catalyzer and designer for positive systemic change in local communities worldwide, with a special expertise on ecosystem stewardship and community development and the coordination of the commons. We start the conversation with insight into Aude's background and how she got involved in ecological restoration. Aude works on several different layers—the ecological, the social, and the economic—always with a focus on the ways in which people relate to each other and the environment. She is currently working in Kenya at Grassroots Economics looking at questions of how to transform a degraded economy into an economy that is good for all. In particular she works on implementation of rotational labor associations where members of the community work together for the good of the community. Aude gives us practiced based insights into how this reciprocal, trust-based system works.

In the command room of Queen Maud, all entrances and exits are locked thanks to some help from the outside. The Lord Admin and his Right Hands are stuck, alone and face to face, with The Old Timers. The time has come for Avis, Devon, Neil, and The Kid to finally confront the Heads of the Hydra.Music and Sound Effects:“Intro” by Abigail McDonald“Goldfinch: Flight to the North” by Axletree at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)“It All Ends Now” by Hampus Naeselius at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Mimicry” by Gavin Luke at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Bonus: All in a Garden Green (Orchestral Version)” by Axletree at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)
Devon and Avis bid Alex farewell and thanks for being a punching bag, and make their way out of their cell and up towards the top of the command tower of Queen Maud. On the way up, they run into Neil and Kid, who had lied their way into the base with Kid using the facade of a guard to fool the two posted at the entrance. After a quick reunion and some questions about Johnathan and Edna, they rush to The Scientist's Laboratory to search for answers, but instead end up with an enlightening confrontation that may help them wrest The Lord Admin from his control of this place.Music and Sound Effects:“Intro” by Abigail McDonald“Rememberance” by Fabien Tell at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Weapon of Choice” by Fabien Tell at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Circles Dissolving” by Anthony Earls at (www.epidemicsound.com)“For All I Know (Instrumental Version)” by Anna Landström, Hanna Ekström, & Anna Dager at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Zero Guidance Needed” by Mike Franklyn at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Goldfinch: Flight to the North” by Axletree at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)“The Answer Lies” by Christoffer Moe Ditlevsen at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Chronicle of a Monday” by Franz Gordon at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Remorse of a Murderer” by Anna Dager & Hanna Ekström at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Bonus: All in a Garden Green (Orchestral Version)” by Axletree at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)

The Old Timers are stopped by the outer guard of Queen Maud, before being taken behind the wall to meet the Lord Admin here, at the location of the former secret research base of The United. On the other side of the wall, a bastion of the former world and its order seems to be thriving, The Old Timers are separated from The Merchant and The Pig, and a familiar face is waiting to greet them.(This is the last episode of Act 2 of “Fire and Smoke: New Ronne”.

Learn how first-generation wealth builders create financial freedom and what stablecoins could mean for your savings. How do you build wealth when you're the first in your family to be able to do so? And can stablecoins really out-earn your savings account? Host Elizabeth Ayoola and Sean Pyles explore generational wealth-building and the myths and realities of stablecoins in a rapidly changing cryptocurrency environment. Joined by entrepreneurs and fiancés Ronne Brown and Courtney Hale, Elizabeth kicks off the first segment with a heartfelt look at how first-generation wealth builders are redefining what it means to be “rich.” Ronne and Courtney share their journeys from modest beginnings to financial independence, relaying how childhood lessons shaped their values, how they built multiple income streams through entrepreneurship, and the steps they're taking to continue building generational wealth together. They discuss the power of investing early, using real estate and the stock market strategically, and protecting assets through estate planning and life insurance. Then, investing writer Sam Taube joins Sean and Elizabeth to break down the difference between Bitcoin and stablecoins — and whether high-yield stablecoins are too good to be true. They explore how the Genius Act changes crypto regulation, how yield-bearing stablecoins compare to high-yield savings accounts, and what risks investors should consider before diving in. They discuss how to find a balance between risk and reward in crypto-based savings options, how stablecoins actually earn yield, and why traditional banking products still offer peace of mind for the risk-averse.

After The Merchant is left in an unconscious state, The Old Timers have to decide whether to stay and take care of her until she gets better, however long that may take, or leave her and The Pig behind. Tensions rise and hard talks are had between the whole group about this decision, and about what Devon has been hiding from Avis. When they eventually move on, traveling for nearly another month, they come across one surprise after another… before being stopped in their tracks by what's waiting for them at the location of the supposed Secret Research Base.Music and Sound Effects:“Intro” by Abigail McDonald“Who's There?” by Franz Gordon at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Muddy Meadows” by Franz Gordon at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Chronicle of a Monday” by Franz Gordon at (www.epidemicsound.com)“The Answer Lies” by Christoffer Moe Ditlevsen at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Tvivel” by Hanna Ekström & Anna Dager at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Big Lever, Spotlight, Long Reverb” by Epidemic Sound at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Bonus: All in a Garden Green (Orchestral Version)” by Axletree at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)
Howling and wailing with anguish and dismay, a dozen Corrupt pull themselves from the muddy Earth behind the strange obelisk to surround “The Old-Timers”, and the shadowy creatures all move in to attack. The sudden and unrelenting aggravation of The Corrupt in this place is unexpected behavior to Neil and Edna, something has got them whipped up into a frenzy and things begin to look dire. The deep, dark of the long night lays heavy over the battle… and the obelisk, the unknown memorial statue here, hums with odd power.Music and Sound Effects:“Intro” by Abigail McDonald“Tvivel” by Hanna Ekström & Anna Dager at (www.epidemicsound.com)“It All Ends Now” by Hampus Naeselius at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Cobweb Morning” by Kai Engel at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)“Bonus: All in a Garden Green (Orchestral Version)” by Axletree at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)
The four time travelers join up with The Merchant, Edna, and The Pig, Jonathan, to continue on their journey towards a secret research base on the other side of the continent. During this time they learn more about each other, they bond, and Kid suggests that they come up with a team name for themselves. This revelry was short lived however, as Devon and Avis suffered more ailments, that group was confronted with a mudslide that forced them to detour, and they all stumbled upon a strange obelisk in the middle of the barren, muddy wasteland that holds an unsettling surprise for everyone.Music and Sound Effects:“Intro” by Abigail McDonald“Odessa's House” by Abigail McDonald“Shudder Waltz” by Franz Gordon at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Zero Guidance Needed” by Mike Franklyn at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Peer Gynt, Op. 23: Morning Mood Version 2” at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Good Evening Madam” by Mike Franklyn at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Tvivel” by Hanna Ekström & Anna Dager at (www.epidemicsound.com)“It All Ends Now” by Hampus Naeselius at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Police Siren, Distant” by Epidemic Sound at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Bonus: All in a Garden Green (Orchestral Version)” by Axletree at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)
There's something wrong with Oliver, he's hiding something. Avis isn't sure what, but you can always tell when someone is lying by their eyes. She, Devon, and Neil confront The Kid as the group continues heading out from New Ronne on a journey by foot across the desolate continent in order to reach the secret research base. However, that desolation is soon interrupted by a couple of new, friendly faces.Content Warning:Reference to and Discussion around Child Neglect/Mistreatment [28:12 - 40:52]Music and Sound Effects:“Intro” by Abigail McDonald“The Answer Lies” by Christoffer Moe Ditlevsen at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Mimicry” by Gavin Luke at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Zero Guidance Needed” by Mike Franklyn at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Cobweb Morning” by Kai Engel at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)
Avis, Devon, Neil, and Ollie are suddenly put on defense while exiting the archive of the former Research Station after some local street thugs decided to hide out and ambush them. Afterwards… everyone learns a little more about how the world (and Neil) has changed, Avis and Devon have a date night at The Vice, the group goes to gather supplies from The Shipper for the long journey they have ahead of them to the secret research base that they now have coordinates for, and Avis discovers something about Ollie.(This is the last episode of Act 1 of “Fire and Smoke: New Ronne”.

Having moved hundreds of years into the future, despite getting separated and despite that each experienced a different amount of that time, Avis, Devon, and Neil all now stand in the same room. Devon, standing frozen in a Cryo-Pod. Avis standing with Oliver, both surprised and confused at the sudden reunion. Neil, standing with a blade to Avis' throat as he was confronting the person he thought might be an intruder trying to break Devon's Cryo-Pod. A lot has happened since they left the server room, all those years ago, and Neil does his best to explain but some of the questions of what's going on can only be answered by venturing back into The Station. Now in ruins, the old building hides more than one surprise for the group of involuntary time travelers.Music and Sound Effects:“Intro” by Abigail McDonald“Winterstorm II: A Cinematic And Ambient Soundscape” by kjartan_abel at (Freesound.org)“Who's There?” by Franz Gordon at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Charge Down, Power Off, Descend” by Epidemic Sound at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Door Open, Air Hiss” by Epidemic Sound at (www.epidemicsound.com)“For All I Know (Instrumental Version)” by Anna Landström, Hanna Ekström, & Anna Dager at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Criminal District” by UNIVERSFIELD at (Freesound.org)“Shudder Waltz” by Franz Gordon at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Bottle, Milk, Empty, Roll On Wood 02” by Epidemic Sound at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Glass Bottle Roll 02” by Epidemic Sound at (www.epidemicsound.com)“The Answer Lies” by Christoffer Moe Ditlevsen at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Door Bolt 01” by Epidemic Sound at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Muddy Meadows” by Franz Gordon at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Goldfinch: Flight to the North” by Axletree at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)“Anxiety Attack” by Bonnie Grace at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Bonus: All in a Garden Green (Orchestral Version)” by Axletree at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)
Avis stands alone, in the cold and dark. The fog of the long night around her conceals the apparently desolate ruins of New Ronne. She seems to have been moved into the future, and Devon and Neil are nowhere in sight. In exploring, Avis meets a kindly Musician and a lonely Kid among the inhabitants of the fallen city. Trying to get some answers about where her friends might be, she ventures out with The Kid to talk to a dangerous Hermit, holed up in an abandoned building on the edge of town.Music and Sound Effects:“Intro” by Abigail McDonald“Eyes That Follow” by Abigail McDonald“Shudder Waltz” by Franz Gordon at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Tvivel” by Hanna Ekström & Anna Dager at (www.epidemicsound.com)“Winterstorm II: A Cinematic And Ambient Soundscape” by kjartan_abel at (Freesound.org)“Bonus: All in a Garden Green (Orchestral Version)” by Axletree at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)
On this episode of Jesus Listens: Stories of Prayer, we’ll hear from special needs mom and caregiver Jessica Ronne, who shares about life with her son Lucas. After finding out her yet-to-be born son had a stroke in utero, Jessica faced the reality of caring for a child with profound disabilities. On top of this, her husband would be diagnosed with brain cancer, and ultimately would pass away. Alone with four children to raise, Jessica recounts her survival story, and how her understanding of the needs of caretakers and those they care for led her to start her nonprofit, The Lucas Project.

Devon and Neil find themselves standing in New Ronne. However, it's not the colony as they know it, not their home. It's what New Ronne would be a long, long time from theirs. They seem to have been moved into the future, and Avis is nowhere in sight. The world is bright and Devon and Neil stand in a utopic city, but as they investigate to try and figure out how they can get to Avis they discover things aren't all they seem to be on the surface. They also discover a familiar face… and only the face may be familiar.Music and Sound Effects:“Intro” by Abigail McDonald“Odessa's House” by Abigail McDonald“Eyes That Follow” by Abigail McDonald“Criminal District” by UNIVERSFIELD at (Freesound.org)“Mysterious Ambiance Music” by TheoJT at (Freesound.org)“Goldfinch: Flight to the North” by Axletree at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)“Noisy Server Computer” by the_toilet_guy at (Freesound.org)“Elevator Door Open” by mredig at (Freesound.org)“Music Elevator Ext” by Jay_You at (Freesound.org)“Cobweb Morning” by Kai Engel at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)“Bonus: All in a Garden Green (Orchestral Version)” by Axletree at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)
Federal Colony Station #1 sits at the heart of New Ronne. It's where Avis and Devon Merlot work, alongside their friendly server maintenance droid, “Neil”, who's always happy to help. This Colony, in the long thawed Antarctic, is the only place all three of them have ever called home. It's where Avis and Devon care for their son and where Neil cares for his servers, and it's full of families living their lives as it continues to grow every day. Times are good in New Ronne, on a surface level, but things are never as good as they seem. When a strange traveler appears in New Ronne, bringing bad omens and wielding unnatural powers, something stirs beneath the surface. The Stranger shows Avis, Devon, and Neil that they're all in for a bad time.Music and Sound Effects:“Intro” by Abigail McDonald“Eyes That Follow” by Abigail McDonald“Noisy Server Computer” by the_toilet_guy at (Freesound.org)“First Love” by Mark Wilson X at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)“Bonus: All in a Garden Green (Orchestral Version)” by Axletree at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)“Mysterious Ambiance Music” by TheoJT at (Freesound.org)“Gloomy Reverie” by Universfield at (Freesound.org)“Winterstorm II: A Cinematic And Ambient Soundscape” by kjartan_abel at (Freesound.org)“End Credits” by Paweł Feszczuk at Freemusicarchive.com (CC BY 4.0)“Instrumental Mystic Song For Paranormal Videos” by Universfield at (Freesound.org)

Being a caregiver to someone is truly a special calling and blessing. But those demands can often leave someone feeling exhausted, isolated, stressed, or unappreciated.

But not long after that, Jess had to also take care of her 30-year-old husband who was dying of terminal brain cancer. Hear her remarkable story and find out why she decided to turn her attention to other caregivers, just like her, who serve each day with grit and grace.

Jessica Ronne has endured more heartache than most can even fathom. She found out when she was pregnant with her second son that he'd had a stroke in utero and would be profoundly disabled if she carried him to term. She and her husband made the decision to carry him to full term and let God handle the details. Lucas does have those disabilities, but Jess and her husband never wished they'd made a different choice. Then, several years and two more children later, Jess's husband was diagnosed with a brain tumor and passed away at the age of 33, leaving her to take care of their four small children. But God didn't leave her in her grief. She met a wonderful man, a widower with three children and they married, blended their families and even added one more to the mix. Even though Jess has a hard story, she's used her experience to create The Lucas Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to serving parent caregivers with respite, recognition and resources. She is also the associate producer of the documentary Unseen and the author of four books, including her most recent, Caregiving with Grit and Grace. Jessica's pain led her to create resources to help others, because she understands what it means to be in an unfamiliar world of grief and caregiving, not knowing how to navigate it all. Her relationship with Jesus is even stronger today than when she was a young mom because she learned to lean on Him, and even question Him, through it all. Even though her story is hard, she fought her way through it and made it to the other side to let you know whatever you're going through, God's got you. The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 1:4 that “He comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.” Here's Jess' story...

In this episode I speak with Jess Ronne, founder of The Lucas Project, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting special needs caregivers. Jess shares her personal journey of caregiving, the challenges faced, and the importance of respite for caregivers. The conversation highlights the role of the church in supporting families with special needs, the need for inclusive spaces, and practical steps for individuals and communities to support caregivers. Jess emphasizes the significance of viewing caregiving as holy work and encourages listeners to cultivate relationships with caregivers to provide meaningful support.Takeaways Jess Ronne is the founder of The Lucas Project, which supports special needs caregivers. Caregiving has been a lifelong role for Jess, stemming from her experiences with her son Lucas and her late husband. The Lucas Project provides respite opportunities for caregivers, allowing them to take necessary breaks. Many caregivers struggle with accepting help due to the ‘martyr caregiver syndrome.' Churches can play a vital role in supporting families with special needs by creating inclusive spaces. Sensory rooms are essential for children with special needs to feel safe and valued during church services. Building relationships with caregivers is crucial before offering respite or support. Caregivers often feel isolated and need companionship and understanding from their communities. The importance of recognizing caregiving as holy work that reflects Christ's service to others. Practical steps for supporting caregivers include providing meals, gift cards, and offering to help with household tasks.Chapters00:00Introduction to Caregiving and The Lucas Project03:12The Journey of Caregiving: Personal Experiences06:02The Birth of The Lucas Project09:01The Importance of Respite for Caregivers12:06Understanding Different Caregiving Scenarios15:09The Role of the Church in Supporting Families18:02Creating Inclusive Spaces for Special Needs Families21:03Practical Steps for Supporting Caregivers24:13Final Thoughts and Encouragement for Caregiver
