https://www.jasonnewland.com/ Let Me Bore You to Sleep (#1453, October 3rd, 2025) is a long, rambling, intentionally drowsy podcast hosted by Jason Newland. It runs about 1 hour and 31 minutes. Jason wanders between everyday observations, playful tangents, and one central Q&A Friday question: “Have your new neighbors moved in?” Key Themes & Segments Opening (0:00 – 10:00) Jason greets listeners, jokes about doing 1,452 previous episodes, and scratches an itch mid-intro. He thanks listeners but struggles to sound sincere without laughing. Mentions his podcast's modest downloads, giving shoutouts to listeners in Minnesota and Oregon. Explains Q&A Friday tradition—this week with only one submitted question. Meta-Podcast Talk (10:00 – 20:00) Jason discusses how few questions come in, suggests people could email him at his Hotmail address. Talks about drinking water quietly to avoid editing out gulp sounds. Reflects on how his voice and style come across—often rambling, repetitive, and humorous through mundane details. Everyday Tangents (20:00 – 35:00) Discusses rain, clouds, and whether birds can fly in storms. Shares stories about childhood fear of jumping from trees and a friend's odd “your feet are lower than your eyes” explanation. Recounts how his dog Vinny once panicked at the sight of a hot-air balloon. ChatGPT Experiment (35:00 – 55:00) Jason describes feeding his TurboScribe transcripts into ChatGPT and being surprised that AI could mimic his rambling style. Reads back AI-generated responses to the week's question (“Have your new neighbors moved in?”), laughing at its ghost and bus analogies. Reflects on the weirdness of having AI describe his “style” as repetitive, mundane, self-aware, and surreal. Answering the Question – Neighbors (55:00 – 1:07:00) Jason finally answers: yes, two new neighbors have moved in. One downstairs (has deliveries but Jason hasn't met them). One opposite his flat (they've exchanged greetings twice). Shares awkward encounters: offering help with moving furniture, feeling self-conscious about being seen waiting for deliveries, and worrying whether his neighbor believed him. Reflects on how his building used to be very social but may become quieter as long-term residents move away. Reflections on Change & Community (1:07:00 – 1:15:00) Wonders if he'll eventually become like “Uncle Sausages,” the older neighbor who kept to himself. Notes the building feels less lively now compared to when he first moved in. Thinks about how neighbors cycle in and out, and how one day he'll be “the old man upstairs.” Daily Life & Random Observations (1:15:00 – 1:26:00) Talks about deliveries (razor, shampoo, Ready Brek cereal). Complains about rising grocery prices. Explains how Brits tell the time differently (quarter to/past instead of “fifteen after”). Jokes about sundials giving inconsistent times at a garden centre. Closing (1:26:00 – 1:31:00) Plans a future episode about iconic British comedy characters (e.g., Patricia Routledge's Hyacinth “Bouquet,” Alan Partridge, Frank Spencer). Wraps up with a reminder for listeners to be kind to themselves and ends with his trademark gentle sign-off. Overall Tone & Style Conversational, meandering, and self-deprecating. Mixes humor with personal anecdotes about neighbors, pets, childhood memories, and trivial daily life. Frequently acknowledges the “pointlessness” of his rambling but leans into it, reinforcing the podcast's sleepy, hypnotic effect. ✨ In short: This episode blends Jason's classic sleepy rambling style with a surprisingly reflective discussion about neighbors, AI imitation of his voice, and how his living environment is slowly changing.

Recording date: 2nd October 2025Welcome back to Compass, Olive Resource Capital's weekly markets and portfolio insights show, hosted by Derek MacPherson (Executive Chairman) and Sam Pelaez (President, CEO & CIO). Each week, we cut through the noise in mining and metals, highlighting the most important macro developments and drilling down into the companies shaping our portfolio.In this episode, we unpack a week of pivotal news for both major gold producers and junior explorers. At the very top of the market, Newmont and Barrick—two of the world's largest gold companies—announced leadership changes on the same day. Newmont's move was a planned succession from COO to CEO, signaling stability and continuity as the company enters a new phase of growth. Barrick, however, surprised the market with an interim appointment following the sudden departure of Mark Bristow. This contrast highlights the broader cycle shift from defensive, balance-sheet-focused leadership to growth-oriented CEOs ready to capitalise on a bull gold market.The coincidence of both announcements has reignited speculation about deeper industrial alignment. With Nevada Gold Mines and Pueblo Viejo already jointly operated, strategic synergies are clear. A combined or further integrated entity could also benefit from passive investment flows, with Newmont's S&P 500 inclusion forcing index-tracking funds to increase their exposure. While no deal has been announced, the industrial and financial rationale for closer alignment between Newmont and Barrick is stronger than ever.Beyond the majors, the week delivered extraordinary news from Olive's portfolio companies. Sterling Metals announced a discovery hole at its Soo Copper project in Ontario - 262 metres at 1% copper equivalent—re-rating the stock by more than 200% in a single day. Years of geological groundwork positioned the company for this success, underscoring the importance of disciplined preparation.Prospector Metals delivered another standout intercept: 44 metres at 13 g/t gold with 1.8% copper at its Mike Lake project. Shares surged nearly 280% and have held those gains. As part of the Discovery Group, Prospector demonstrated how systematic geological work and strong stewardship can unlock transformative discoveries.By contrast, Midnight Sun Mining illustrates the risk of overextended valuations. The company reported nearly 40 metres at .5% copper from its Dumbwa target in Zambia, yet shares fell around 20% as the market had already priced in perfection. The case highlights why entry point and expectations matter as much as geological success.The financing environment also shows renewed strength, with over C$100 million raised across juniors in the past week. With seasonal drill programs now underway, investors should expect a steady cadence of results through year-end. Majors may also lean further into M&A, project acceleration, and capital returns as gold prices remain near record highs.
