Deep in the Amazon rainforest of southeastern Peru, one of the world's most elusive wild cats slips silently through the trees. Smaller than a jaguar and far less famous than a tiger, the margay is a master of the canopy, moving through tangled branches with extraordinary agility. For decades, scientists have struggled to understand this mysterious feline because it is rarely seen, mostly active at night, and equally comfortable on the ground and high above it. Now, a new study conducted by Dr. Samantha Zwicker of Hoja Nueva, a conservation nonprofit rooted in Madre de Dios, Peru, and colleagues, is shedding light on the hidden world of the margay in the Madre de Dios region of Peru. By combining ground cameras with lower-canopy cameras placed at natural margay choke points, the team captured both sides of cats moving up and down trees - a practical, lower-cost alternative to labor-intensive upper-canopy surveys.
When Emma reconnects with a childhood family friend during a disaster relief deployment, she never expects to fall for a man who seems straight out of a movie. A decorated paramedic, respected leader, and real-life lifesaver, Adam is the kind of person everyone admires. As their relationship deepens, Emma finds herself swept into a world of grand gestures, heroic rescues, and unwavering devotion. But as small inconsistencies begin to surface, she's left questioning whether the man she trusts most is really who he says he is. In Part 2 of this story, Emma shares how following her instincts led her to uncover a hidden life she never could have imagined—and the difficult lessons she learned about love, loyalty, and knowing when it's time to walk away.Are you in the Chicago, Tampa, or Orlando area and want to come see us live?!

For years I've watched American White Pelicans migrate through Kansas by the thousands and wondered what we really know about them. Where do they come from? How far do they travel? How do they breed? And what exactly are they doing when they're soaring thousands of feet overhead? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Aimee Van Tatenhove, a quantitative ecologist and former pelican researcher whose doctoral work focused on American White Pelicans around the Great Salt Lake. We discuss pelican migration, nesting colonies, feeding behavior, GPS tracking, bird strikes, avian flu, and some of the surprising things scientists have learned by following these birds across North America. We also dive into the challenges facing the Great Salt Lake, including drought, water management, the proposed data center controversy, and why the future of the lake matters to millions of migratory birds. Topics discussed: American White Pelican migration routes GPS tracking and pelican research Breeding colonies and nesting behavior Cooperative feeding and hunting strategies Bird strikes and aviation concerns Avian influenza impacts on waterbirds Great Salt Lake conservation challenges Drought, water use, and habitat loss Data centers and water consumption How pelican populations are changing across North America Whether you're a waterfowl hunter, birder, conservationist, or simply someone who enjoys watching wildlife, this episode offers a fascinating look into one of North America's most remarkable birds.

Every spring, something remarkable happens in the tidal waters of Black Creek in Esopus, New York: tiny, translucent eels — just an inch and a half long and barely the weight of a postage stamp — swim in from the Atlantic Ocean, following a journey that began in the Sargasso Sea nearly a year before.In this episode, guest host Sierra DeVito joins the Hudson River Eel Project at Black Creek Preserve, where Professor Susan Hereth of SUNY New Paltz leads a team of college and high school students in weekly data collection on the American eel — one of nature's most elusive and mysterious creatures. No one has ever witnessed eels spawning. No one knows exactly what draws them to the Hudson, or to Black Creek specifically. And yet, year after year, they return.We wade in with the crew as they haul the fyke net, count and weigh glass eels, record field data, and release the eels upstream. We also hear from students about what it means to do real science in the real world — and why it matters.In this episode:The remarkable (and still poorly understood) life cycle of the American eel, from the Sargasso Sea to the Catskill tributariesHow community scientists collect data that feeds into long-term fisheries researchThe black market for glass eels — and why a single eel can be worth serious moneyWhy getting students into the muck may be the best environmental education of allFor more information or to inquire about volunteering with the Hudson River Eel Project, visit the NYS DEC website — https://dec.ny.gov/nature/waterbodies/oceans-estuaries/hudson-river-estuary-program/community-science-volunteer-opportunities

The Way of Jesus - The Secret Life With God.
Have you ever been consumed by someone you knew wasn't healthy for you? Replayed conversations on loop? Lived for a text back? Felt more alive with someone unavailable than with someone who was fully present?You are not weak. You are not crazy. You are caught in what Brianne Davis-Gantt calls The Fantasy Loop™ — a 7-stage nervous system cycle that keeps people addicted to unavailable love, unavailable people, and unavailable versions of themselves.In this pivotal episode of Secret Life Podcast, Brianne introduces The Fantasy Loop™ for the first time — the trademarked teaching framework she has spent years developing through her own recovery and her work with hundreds of clients. This is not about judging yourself. This is about finally understanding the cycle so you can break it.THE 7 STAGES OF THE FANTASY LOOP™:Stage 1 — Emotional EmptinessThe loop doesn't begin with a person. It begins with an inner void — loneliness, attachment wounds, unmet emotional needs, nervous system dysregulation. That emptiness becomes the doorway.Stage 2 — ActivationAn unavailable, inconsistent, or emotionally distant person appears and your nervous system lights up. What you think is chemistry is actually nervous system activation. This is where people confuse activation for love.Stage 3 — Fantasy ProjectionYour mind fills in the gaps. You stop seeing the real person. You project qualities onto them that don't exist and build an entire future based on potential, not reality. The brain becomes attached to the possibility instead of the person. The fantasy only thrives in uncertainty.Stage 4 — On and Off ReinforcementThe addiction deepens through intermittent reinforcement — just enough connection to keep you hooked, followed by withdrawal. Dopamine isn't driven by stability. It's driven by anticipation. This is why toxic attachments feel chemically addictive.Stage 5 — Obsession and Self-AbandonmentThe overthinking begins. Replaying conversations. Checking your phone. Losing your boundaries. Your world shrinks around the fantasy. The Fantasy Loop is not just about chasing someone. It's about abandoning yourself in the process.Stage 6 — Collapse and WithdrawalReality returns. They pull away, ghost, or the fantasy finally cracks. What follows isn't just heartbreak — it's withdrawal. Toxic attachment activates the same reward system as a chemical addiction. This is why people go back when they know it's hurting them.Stage 7 — ReattachmentInstead of healing the wound underneath, the brain searches for another high, another unavailable person, another fantasy. Different face. Same nervous system pattern. And the loop starts again.HOW TO BREAK THE FANTASY LOOP™:1. Awareness — you cannot heal a pattern you cannot see2. Regulate your nervous system — this is body-based attachment conditioning3. Heal the attachment wound underneath — anxious, avoidant, or dismissive4. Rebuild self-worth and boundaries from the inside out5. Choose reality over fantasy — and learn what real love actually feels likeYou are not broken. This is not a character flaw. This is a survival pattern. And survival patterns can be healed.Brianne Davis-Gantt is living proof.Resources at secretlifepodcast.comShare your secret: secretlifepodcast@icloud.com

How can changing the way we breathe lower stress and blood pressure? Why is touch so important for premature babies and ICU patients? And what can our organs teach us about staying healthy?

Comments! Mysogny and Sisterhood! Then we bring dopey with Natanya Ross — the iconic 90s child star from The Secret Life of Alex Mack. I sat down with her in LA and she absolutely opened up her soul. We covered everything from her crazy early fame (she was doing Gerber commercials at six months old), discovering she was adopted at 19, her adoptive mother's horrific betrayal and financial abuse, to descending into heavy opioid and heroin addiction. Natanya got real about living in a car and at the notorious American Hotel on Skid Row with other child stars, her relationship with Brad Renfro (who tragically overdosed and died right next to her), the later death of her fiancé Blake, and how she fought her way into long-term recovery. She's now deep in the treatment world — Executive Director of Business Development at Valiant Behavioral Health, President of the Women's Association of Addiction Treatment, and founder of San Fernando Valley Feed the Homeless. This one is serious Dopey business — raw child star trauma, Hollywood darkness, and triumphant recovery all in one. ALL THAT AND WAY MORE on this weeks new episode of that good old Dopey Show!

Jennie Gage has lived several lifetimes inside one — and she's using all of it to fight back.

Len Testa and Jim Hill break down a busy week in theme park news, from Bluey crowd control at Animal Kingdom to Universal's possible drone-show ambitions. Len also crunches the numbers on the best days to visit Magic Kingdom, because nothing says vacation like 22 million wait times and a spreadsheet with emotional damage. Then Jim digs into Disneyland's opening-day ticket scandal and why Walt Disney may have had very good reasons to sour on Western Publishing. NEWS • Disney's Animal Kingdom prepares for Bluey with a virtual queue and some serious toddler-capacity math. • Len explains why Sundays may be your best Magic Kingdom bet from January through July, while party season flips the calendar. • Disneyland's Autopia goes electric in 2027, raising questions about batteries, car design, and Tomorrowland's long-overdue tune-up. • Universal Orlando surveys guests about pets, which may hint at Secret Life of Pets possibilities in Florida. • A new Universal patent features an onboard animated figure, possibly a frog, possibly a nightmare with wheels. FEATURE • Jim revisits Disneyland's chaotic 1955 opening day and the mysterious flood of “legitimate” invitations. • The story points toward Western Publishing, one of Disneyland's earliest investors and official printers. • Walt's later decision to buy out Western may have had more behind it than simple business strategy. • Also discussed: C.V. Wood, Black Sunday, Bob Gurr, Richard Nixon, and why the Secret Service probably hated the monorail. For this episode's full show notes, click here.

Hotels represent nations, hosting visiting monarchs, politicians, and diplomats. Hotels underpin global networks of travel and communication, on which national and international prosperity have increasingly depended since the end of the First World War. Yet hotels are also places where people can be anonymous; where murderers and thieves mix with adulterers and con artists; and where prejudice finds expression in who is refused access, and in the forms of 'service' provided by staff in the lowest-paid roles. The Secret Life of the Hotel: Sex, Crime and Protest in British Guesthouses Since 1918 (Bloomsbury, 2026) by Professor Eloise Moss is the first book to uncover how hotels entrenched inequality, prejudice, and exploitation in Britain's tourist sector, and in wider society and culture, during the 20th century.Professor Moss delves into hotel murders, swindles, and scandals, including the history of Agatha Christie's disappearance in 1926, the 'Margate Hotel Murder', and the divorce of Wallis Simpson in 1936 so she could marry King Edward VIII. Professor Moss's exploration of the hotel also shines a light on the fight against the colour bar, the formation of the British civil rights movement, and the visit to London of Martin Luther King Jr.The Secret Life of the Hotel uniquely tells the story of Britain's relationship with the world during the 20th century through the prism of its hotels, showing how their infrastructure and 'welcome' had profound consequences for women, people of colour, LGBTQ+ citizens, and people with disabilities. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Send us Fan MailThe word “surgery” can feel like a threat when you're young and already worn down by Crohn's disease. Michael Morgan, author of *The Secret Life of Crohn's*, joins us to talk about being diagnosed at age 10, cycling through medications, and living with the kind of urgency that forces you to plan every minute around toilets, school schedules, and the fear of being noticed. We get into the part people don't always see: the constant anxiety, the shrinking world, and how much mental energy IBD can steal long before anyone calls it mental health.Michael also shares what it was like to hear ostomy surgery discussed as a teenager, the misconceptions that fueled his fear, and the moment he realized life on the other side could be bigger than the life he was trying to protect. We talk about the adjustment period, confidence building, and why so many people with ostomies describe freedom and relief once their disease is under better control.From there, we dig into practical realities: asking schools for accommodations, using tools that make bathroom access easier, staying on top of Crohn's management even after major surgery, and navigating rare symptoms like inflammatory disease in the mouth. And yes, we go deep on travel with an ostomy, including packing supplies, hostel bathrooms, and the small “tricks” that make big adventures possible.If you're facing a big treatment decision, supporting a child with IBD, or trying to make your world bigger again, this conversation will meet you where you are. Subscribe, leave a review, and share this with someone who needs a little more hope and a lot more real talk.Links: More of Michael's Story- Crohn's & Colitis UKOrder Michael's bookArticle about Michael and his book- Hackney CitizenTraveling with an ostomy- United Ostomy AssociationLet's get social!!Follow us on Instagram!Follow us on Facebook!Follow us on Twitter!

In an episode first aired back in 2025 on our sister show, Terrestrials, we take you on a musical journey all about beavers. Few mammals have a bigger positive impact on the planet than the beaver. With its bright orange buck teeth, the creature is an expert engineer that brings life wherever it waddles and even fights fires. Our story begins in the Bronx river, once known as the “open sewer” of New York City. After some humans decide to clean it up, we meet one of the river's residents - José the beaver. We learn about the US government parachuting beavers out of planes into the mountains. And finally head to California where we discover how one beaver family saved acres of land from burning. Special thanks to author Ben Goldfarb, Christian Murphy from the Bronx River Alliance and Dr. Emily Fairfax. Terrestrials was created by Lulu Miller with WNYC Studios. This episode was produced by Ana González and sound-designed by Mira Burt-Wintonick. Our team includes Alan Goffinski, Joe Plourde and Tanya Chawla. Fact checking was by Diane Kelly. Our advisors for this show were Ana Luz Porzecanski, Nicole Depalma, Liza Demby and Tovah Barocas.
