The most valuable shipwreck of all time is the San José galleon—an 18th century Spanish ship that carried 11 million gold coins, silver, and emeralds—and worth $20 billion in today's currency. It sunk in a battle with British ships during the War of Spanish Succession and remained completely lost for centuries. That is until a clue to its final resting place was found by the most unlikely person: Roger Dooley, a Cuban-American underwater explorer who helped establish Cuba's national diving program and spent years scouring Caribbean waters for sunken shipwrecks at the behest of Fidel Castro. Dooley wasn’t looking for the San José. But an accidental discovery in the dusty stacks of a Spanish archive led him to the story of a lifetime, the tale of a great eighteenth-century treasure ship loaded with riches from the New World and destined for Spain Though a diver at heart, Dooley was an unlikely candidate to find the San José. He had little in the way of serious credentials, yet his tenacity and single-minded devotion to finding and excavating the ship powered him across four decades, even as he became a man in exile from the country of his birth. As Dooley jousted with famous treasure hunters and well-funded competitors, he slowly homed in on a patch of sea that might contain a three-hundred-year-old shipwreck—or nothing at all. Today’s guest is Julian Sancton, author of “Neptune’s Fortune: The Billion Dollar Shipwreck and the Ghosts of the Spanish Empire.” We look at the story of a legendary Spanish galleon that sunk off the coast of, one man’s obsessive quest to find it, and the ongoing fight over excavating this historic shipwreck.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Throwback Files: Fresno Nightcrawler | Paranormal Podcast In this month's throwback episode, we head back to Fresno and visit Charlie's sworn enemy, the Fresno Nightcrawler. About the Fresno Nightcrawler: The Fresno Nightcrawler is a popular cryptid from folklore, known from grainy videos of strange, white, leg-like figures with no visible heads or arms, resembling "walking pants" that glide across yards, originating from a 2007 Fresno sighting that went viral, sparking theories of aliens or interdimensional beings.
We must be better stewards of history of this nation 250 years strong. God fearing folks need to hold the rest accountable to the corruption.
The bulbous bow: an odd-looking, but very efficient, ship design featureThere's a unusual-looking ship design feature that's on pretty much all the ships that arrive here on the Columbia. When a ship is loaded, it's out of sight below the waterline, but on ships that are waiting for cargo, like in anchorages, you can sometimes see it.It's called the bulbous bow. It looks like a round or cylindrical protuberance sticking out in front of the ship at the front, below the waterline. Strange looking, yes, but it actually reduces drag, and improves ship efficiency and speed.

The AI labs fighting for attention during the Super Bowl call to mind another iconic Super Bowl moment: Apple's 1984 ad for the Macintosh, which promised that the personal computer would be a source of unbound wonder, freedom, and delight.They were right, but over time, the personal computer has also become cluttered with errands.These “computer errands”—downloading a W-2 when tax season rolls around, hunting for the right coupon code before checkout, or navigating the unholy labyrinth of the Amazon Web Services dashboard just to change one permission setting—have taken over our digital lives. Atlas, OpenAI's agentic browser, sprang from the idea that AI should handle this tedium for you.In this week's episode of AI & I, Dan Shipper sat down with two members of the Atlas team, Ben Goodger and Darin Fisher. Goodger is Atlas's head of engineering, and Fisher is a member of the technical staff. Both are legends of the browser world. They've spent decades building the modern web, working together on Netscape, Firefox, and Chrome before arriving at Atlas. From that vantage point, they told Dan how they think browsing is about to change, why building a browser is harder than it looks, and what it's like to create a new one with AI coding tools like Codex.If you found this episode interesting, please like, subscribe, comment, and share!

Greek Gods | Paranormal Podcast In this Greek gods episode timed with the Winter Olympics, we explore the fascinating world of Greek mythology starting with the origin story of the three most powerful gods—Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades—who were born to the Titan Cronus and his wife Rhea during the Golden Age, though Cronus attempted to eat all his children after a prophecy warned he'd be overthrown by his sons, leading Zeus to eventually free his brothers and defeat their father. We discuss the 12 great Olympians including Zeus (the serial cheater who ruled the sky), Hera (his perpetually angry sister-wife and goddess of marriage), Athena (the brilliant goddess of wisdom who burst fully formed from Zeus's head), Dionysus (the fun-loving god of wine and theater who was gestated in Zeus's thigh after his mother exploded), and several compelling minor gods like Hecate (goddess of magic and crossroads) and Pan (the half-goat satyr god of wilderness). We share captivating myths including Hades kidnapping Persephone with pomegranate seeds that created the seasons, Prometheus stealing fire for humanity and suffering eternal punishment, and the tragic tale of Arachne, who challenged Athena to a weaving contest with devastating consequences.

Cartoonists Brad Guigar and Dave Kellett dig into the many ways we react to humor — from full-on belly laughs to the silent internal “that was good” response. After that the way, they tackle some big (and surprisingly relatable) topics:Are they actually going to use Patreon Quips?Dave's Bad 2025 — what went wrong, what he learned, and why it mattersWhy you never stop building an audience, even when things feel “established”And yes… being scared of Reddit comments is universal!SummaryIn this episode of Comic Lab, hosts Dave Kellett and Brad Guigar dive into the nature of humor in comics, prompted by a listener's question about whether funny comics truly elicit laughter or if they are simply enjoyable. Brad and Dave explore the subjective nature of humor, sharing their own experiences with laughter and recognition of craft in comedy. Next, they delve into the ongoing journey of building and maintaining an audience in the ever-evolving landscape of comics. They emphasize that there is no such thing as a 'built audience.' Audience engagement is a continuous process that requires constant effort and adaptation. Drawing on the metaphor of the Ship of Theseus, they discuss how creators must regularly replace and update their strategies to keep their audience engaged, acknowledging that audience members may leave for various reasons, including life changes or simply forgetting about the content.The conversation also touches on the emotional toll of negative feedback, particularly on platforms like Reddit, where creators often face harsh criticism. Brad and Dave share personal anecdotes about dealing with trolls and the importance of focusing on the positive aspects of audience engagement. They conclude by reinforcing the idea that the creative journey is ongoing, and that every creator must continually learn and adapt to thrive in the industry.Takeaways"Not every year is going to be gangbusters."There's no such thing as a built audience; you're always in building mode.Audience engagement is like the Ship of Theseus; it's constantly changing.You should aim to gain 2-6% new audience every month to replace those who leave.Negative comments often come from unhappy individuals; don't take them personally.Every creator must continually learn and adapt to thrive in the industry.

Seafarer survey shows many sailors find life at sea stressfulA new study published in 2025 by World Maritime University, says "persistently long working hours, limited opportunities for rest and shore leave, and high levels of work-related stress" among sailors is a matter of serious concern in the maritime industry. The survey included about 4500 respondents across 99 countries, including the US.
Introduction Josh Hollander sits down with Vishal Sankhla, Co‑Founder & CEO of OutMarket, to get specific about what “AI in insurance” looks like when it actually changes operations. The focus is commercial insurance workflows—where work still runs through email, PDFs, spreadsheets, and agency management systems—and how to cut cycle time and errors without creating new risk. Guest bio Vishal Sankhla has led product teams at Uber and Meta and previously served as Head of Product at Ethos Life, helping build profitable acquisition channels, the underwriting engine, and the agency partners business. At OutMarket, he's building an intelligence layer for commercial insurance: agent-assisted workflows that make teams faster and more consistent. Key topics discussed Why AI pilots stall: fragmented data, manual handoffs, and inconsistent processes across the submission-to-bind journey. Data first, workflows second: where insurance data lives, how it breaks, and why workflow redesign is the unlock. Policy intelligence: turning policies into structure so teams can summarize coverage, surface gaps, and improve proposals. Servicing and renewals: reducing back-and-forth, re-keying, and avoidable errors with agent-assisted workflows. Integration reality: fitting into agency management systems and carrier ecosystems instead of trying to replace them. Measuring impact: cycle time, hit rate, and error reduction (not vanity metrics). Trust, privacy, isolation: what it takes to earn permission to touch sensitive client data. Quotes “Because so much of this is happening manually, I think a lot of this data tends to get very, very fragmented.” “we built workflows that now literally allow them to drag and drop, and within a few seconds, they know exactly a quick summary” “We've seen a lot of use cases where people are now winning their businesses because of some AI workflows.” Resources mentioned OutMarket Uber Meta Ethos Life Call to action Subscribe for more operator-grade conversations on insurance and insurtech.

Creature Feature: Vol 6 | Paranormal Podcast *This is volume 6...I need you to promise me that you'll ignore all the times I say *5* in this episode* In Creature Feature Volume 6, we dive into four unsettling listener submissions, starting with Cecil from Texas, who was letting his dogs out around 10pm when he noticed something watching him over the fence—at first he thought it was his neighbor's birdhouse, but this canine-shaped thing with a disturbing smile disappeared the next night even though the birdhouse remained. We then hear from Jasmine in North Carolina, who drove 30 minutes outside her college town with her boyfriend Jake to stargaze in a remote area with only 600 people, but their romantic night turned terrifying when they heard bipedal footsteps pacing along the treeline in the darkness, stalking them until Jake shone his flashlight and told Jasmine to calmly walk back to the car—a experience so disturbing that Jake refused to ever speak about it again, leaving us wondering what he actually saw. Julia's story takes us to Washington state in 2017, where an argument with her sister led her to take a late-afternoon hike on the Cascade trails, only to experience complete silence in the forest followed by heavy breathing from something tall and dark that moved with unnatural fluidity and eventually revealed itself as a massive 7-foot-tall creature covered in dark matted hair that hunted her through the woods, forcing her to sprint back to her car. Finally, we explore Zachary's multiple encounters on his rural southwest Ohio property near the Indiana border, where late-night experiences included walking directly into an invisible entity so solid it knocked him to the ground, witnessing a bright neon green mass shoot from the sky into a cornfield, and spotting what appeared to be a silverback gorilla-like creature with long thick hair standing perfectly still against a tree—encounters that left both him and his wife too terrified to go outside at night.
This week I'm joined by my good friend Chenell Basilio, creator of Growth in Reverse and one of the most thorough newsletter analysts in the space. We spent over an hour diving deep into what's really working in email right now — from the death of newsletter hype to the opportunity hiding in recommendation networks. Chenell shared her framework of "insanely valuable content" (the one thing that matters more than any growth hack), and we got surprisingly honest about using AI to create short-form content from our long-form work. We also tackled the big question: how do you grow an email list if you refuse to use social media? Turns out there are more options than you think — from public homework challenges to old-school guest posting making a comeback. Plus, I introduced a new segment called "Unhinged Questions" where we played kiss, marry, kill with email platforms.

A long workday on the river heading to PortlandWhile we see ships pass by Astoria and other areas on the river, that's only a fraction of their workday when they cross the Columbia Rive Bar. A transit can take and entire standard workday - 8 hours - a long trip for crews who have already spend several weeks at sea to get here.
How ships fit into the global supply chain, and a look at who's on the river todayWe see ships coming and going every day, and while they are interesting to look at, they also represent an important part of the wider web of global trade, and are responsible for bring us goods we use in our every day lives. So, ships are truly meaningful to you and me, whether we realize it or not.
During its glory days, the Gertrude was the fastest blockade runner in the Confederate fleet. But just 17 years later, it was just another dumpy old steamer on a lowly coastwise run, wrecked in what was probably an insurance-fraud scheme. (Coos Bay, Coos County; 1880s) (For text and pictures, see https://offbeatoregon.com/1310a-gussie-telfair-shipwrecked-warrior.html)
The Python cryptography module, pyca/cryptography, has mostly been a sane wrapper around a pile of C, so that users get performant cryptography on the many, many platforms Python targets. Therefore its maintainers, Alex Gaynor and Paul Kehrer, have become intimately familiar with OpenSSL. Recently, they declared that after many years of trying to make it work, they announced pyca/cryptography would be moving away from OpenSSL when supporting new functionality and exploring adding other backends instead. We invited them on to tell us about what has happened to OpenSSL, even after the investments and improvements following Heartbleed.

Eidolon + MACHINE #3: Ship To WreckThe crew of the Ghost Of Winter rush to save Titan's colonists from a sudden attack by the Terran Alliance. While Dax and Lákhesis work to rally the scattered Outer Sphere forces, Mayve and Atropos reach a tentative agreement to use their power to defend the survivors. Will their compromise survive an encounter with the enemy's Leviathan, or will Mayve's desire for revenge burn Atropos' trust?
The Trio meet to discuss two of the talks (ours!) from the recent in-person PhillyCocoa meetup called "Beyond the Simulator: Perspectives on Modern App Development" that took place on January 29 at the Vanguard offices in Philadelphia. This pod was recorded before the event due to scheduling, but we go into detail on what you missed now that it is the future (insert Spaceballs joke here)! Kotaro talks about Liquid Glass and what it means for modern UI/UX while Steve goes into some detail about how to effectively get started using tools like Codex CLI or Claud Code for app development.

The crew begin their plans to finally head to the abandoned Collector's Ship but something from someone's past appears before someone within the Rubicon crew.
An unsinkable ship disappears into the Arctic void, a serial killer blames his neighbor's possessed Labrador, laughter becomes a contagion, and England decides that being dead isn't a good enough excuse to avoid punishment.

January 2026 Bizarre News | Paranormal Podcast In this month's Bizarre News, we cover four wild stories starting with the shocking case of Jonathan Gerlock from Philadelphia, who was arrested after police discovered skulls, arm and leg bones, mummified hands and feet, and two actively decomposing torsos in his possession—along with approximately 100 bodies worth of bones stored throughout his home after he'd broken into 26 mausoleums at the Mount Mariah cemetery over several months. We then head down under to Western Australia where six miners working at a remote Fortescue Metals Group site spotted what they're convinced was a genuine UFO around 5am—a perfectly triangular-shaped object racing across the morning sky that definitely wasn't a helicopter, with the region becoming something of a hotspot for extraterrestrial activity including a recent discovery of a large cylindrical object ablaze in the remote wilderness. Next, we dive into Hyundai's controversial plan to build 30,000 robots annually starting in 2028 at their Georgia factory to replace human workers across multiple industries, a move that has unions furious and raises serious concerns about job displacement despite the company's determination to move forward regardless of labor opposition. Finally, we explore the terrifying situation of a family in India's Gaya district who fled their home after experiencing unexplained fires for seven consecutive days that damaged rooms, clothes, bedding, and even their kitchen stove—with the family believing the mysterious blazes began after they refused bread to a wandering holy man (a Sadhu) who became enraged, cursed them, and specifically declared their house would catch on fire before leaving.

Terrified Together with Will Soto of the Red Treehouse Podcast In this Terrified Together collaboration with Will from the Red Tree House podcast, we explore two fascinating listener submissions, starting with Zach's UFO encounters in Colorado. Zach's first sighting occurred during late winter or early spring 2018 while stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic on I-70, when he spotted a massive flying wing with camouflage technology that made only its outlines visible—like the Predator's cloaking effect—slowly moving eastward toward the DIA and Buckley Air Force Base, seemingly unnoticed by other drivers despite its size and unusual appearance. His second encounter happened on July 4th of either 2021 or 2022 when he witnessed a completely silent, wingless pod-shaped craft—roughly the size of a smart car with thin brown and orange stripes like an old Winnebago—flying just above housetops near his girlfriend's neighborhood, headed directly toward Waterton Canyon and the nearby Lockheed Martin facility. We then hear Megan's enchanting story from northern Minnesota between 2005 and 2009, where as a young child visiting her grandparents' 100-acre property, she developed a mysterious habit of placing quarters and shiny objects under rocks near the boathouse, only to return the next day and discover her offerings had doubled—a phenomenon she suspected might be the work of the fae, though her family never believed her when she finally shared the story years later.
