Pour rythmer vos vacances, Into The Wind vous propose, du 31 juillet au 28 août, Un Été d'archis, soit la rediffusion de quatre épisodes dont les invités étaient des architectes navals ayant marqué l'histoire de la course au large. Des minis aux Ultim en passant par les Class40, Imoca, Ocean Fifty ou "one-off", ils nous racontent leur parcours et comment ils ont contribué à donner naissance à des bateaux de légende.--Il est né à Buenos Aires dans une famille aux origines arméniennes, britanniques et françaises, s'est formé au lycée français avant d'étudier l'architecture navale à l'université de Southampton : Juan Kouyoumdjian - Juan K. pour les intimes - ne pouvait être un architecte tout à fait comme les autres...Sa triple culture, à la fois sud-américaine, francophone et anglo-saxonne, a nourri une approche du design fondée sur l'analyse, la rigueur scientifique et une vision globale des projets, et une attirance pour le savoir-faire des "crazy Frenchies" .Il débute ainsi sa carrière professionnelle à La Rochelle au sein du cabinet de Philippe Briand, alors très impliqué dans la Coupe de l'America. Cette première expérience le place rapidement au contact du plus haut niveau de la conception de bateaux de course. À la fin des années 1990, il signe ses premiers projets en son nom, dont un 50 pieds dessiné pour Ortwin Kandler à l'occasion de l'Admiral's Cup 1999. Conçu pour exploiter les limites de la jauge IMS, Krazy Kyote suscite une forte controverse réglementaire, qui contribue néanmoins à asseoir sa notoriété internationale.Les années suivantes sont marquées par une implication continue dans la Coupe de l'America et dans la Volvo Ocean Race. Juan Kouyoumdjian accompagne la transition technologique du début des années 2000, caractérisée par l'essor de la simulation numérique et de la modélisation avancée. Les campagnes Volvo d'ABN AMRO (2005-2006) , Ericsson (2008-2009) puis Groupama (2011-2012) se traduisent par trois victoires consécutives.Parallèlement, Juan K. développe une activité soutenue dans le secteur des maxis et des bateaux de série. Des monocoques de 100 pieds aux projets réalisés avec Nautor Swan, il intervient dans un univers dominé par des propriétaires privés, des budgets importants et des règles de jauge complexes, où les choix techniques s'inscrivent autant dans des logiques sportives que réglementaires et économiques.Son parcours en IMOCA (Cheminées Poujoulat, Paprec Arké, Corum L'Epargne) apparaît plus contrasté. Juan K. souligne la complexité de la conception de bateaux destinés au solitaire, où le facteur humain conditionne fortement la performance. Plusieurs projets montrent un potentiel de vitesse élevé, mais sont affectés par des avaries ou des limites structurelles, empêchant une exploitation optimale en course.A 54 ans, il en nourrit quelques regrets, mais serait prêt à repartir sur un projet avec un seul skipper : Franck Cammas, avec qui il a gagné la Volvo Ocean Race.

Pour rythmer vos vacances, Into The Wind vous propose, du 31 juillet au 21 août, Un Été d'archis, soit la rediffusion de quatre épisodes dont les invités étaient des architectes navals ayant marqué l'histoire de la course au large. Des minis aux Ultim en passant par les Class40, Imoca, Ocean Fifty ou "one-off", ils nous racontent leur parcours et comment ils ont contribué à donner naissance à des bateaux de légende.--Il n'est pas du genre à élever la voix ou à attirer les projecteurs. Et pourtant, voilà déjà un quart de siècle qu'Antoine Koch promène sa silhouette longiline et sa discrétion dans le monde de la voile de compétition. Et on pourrait ajouter "comme prévu" - ou presque - à la phrase précédente, tant ce garçon, né à Paris voilà 45 ans, a choisi sa voie très tôt. Son destin est en effet scellé dès son plus jeune âge : il a beau être parisien, la maison de vacances familiale est mitoyenne de celle des Caudrelier à Fouesnant, il fréquente la fameuse école de voile du Cap-Coz dont sont issus - entre autres - Roland Jourdain et Jean-Luc Nélias. Bref, la baie de la Forêt est son jardin, et le bateau des parents l'emmène très vite vers des rêves de Vendée Globe. A 20 ans, étudiant à l'Université de technologie de Compiègne - "parce qu'ils avaient un programme pour les athlètes de haut niveau" - il se lance dans son premier projet, la Transat AG2R ; l'année suivante, toujours étudiant, c'est sa première Solitaire du Figaro, où, benjamin de la course et bizuth, il se fait remarquer par une étonnante 8e place dans la première étape, qui se confirme par ses trois participations suivantes, toutes terminées... dans les 10 premiers, avec une victoire d'étape ! Avec le Vendée Globe dans le viseur, il rachète en 2002 Fila, l'Imoca de Giovanni Soldini, et se classe 5e de la Route du Rhum 2002 puis 8e de la Transat Jacques Vabre 2003, avant de devoir renoncer au tour du monde, faute de sponsor. Il rebondit quelques mois plus tard en prenant la barrre du trimaran Orma Sopra : il vit les dernières années du circuit et découvre le solo sur ces machines particulières, se classant 9e du Rhum 2006 puis 5e de la Transat Jacques Vabre. Retour, ensuite au Figaro - avec une nouvelle victoire d'étape en 2009 -, un détour par le Multi50 et le Classe C, et le voilà sur le Mod70 Gitana en 2012 : le navigant se mue en coordinateur technique, au sein de l'écurie du baron où il participe à l'épopée de la création du Maxi Edmond de Rotschild. En 2017, il passe à l'Imoca et entame une fructueuse collaboration avec Thomas Ruyant, avec qui il participe à la conception et au développement de LinkedOut, en particulier sur les voiles et les appendices, prenant la 4e place de la Transat Jacques Vabre en 2019 au passage. Le skipper de LinkedOut n'a pas encore fini son Vendée Globe qu'Antoine Koch commence à réfléchir au bateau suivant. Il s'associe avec Finot-Conq pour proposer un nouveau plan pour le prochain Vendée Globe, retenu par TR Racing mais aussi l'équipe Paprec Arkéa de Yoann Richomme. Et on dirait que ça marche : For People, le plan Koch-Finot-Conq a remporté la Guyader Bermudes 1000 Race, avec à peine 6 sorties au compteur. Antoine Koch, lui, s'est emparé de la troisième place avec Sam Goodhild sur l'ex Linked Out, devenu For The Planet.

Mit gerade einmal 21 Jahren sitzt Anna Barth als Strategin an Bord eines F50-Katamarans, der mit mehr als 100 Stundenkilometern über das Wasser fliegt. Während andere in ihrem Alter gerade ein Studium beginnen, besetzt sie beim deutschen SailGP-Team eine der anspruchsvollsten Positionen an Bord. Nun steht das Heimrennen in Sassnitz vor der Tür. Tausende Zuschauer und fast ausverkaufte Tribünen warten auf sie. Für Anna ist es das zweite Mal an der Ostsee. Das diesjährige Ziel: Schwarz-Rot-Gold ins Finale bringen. Im Gespräch mit Timm Kruse erzählt die Seglerin, wie es sich anfühlt, zum ersten Mal an Bord eines F50-Katamarans zu sein und auf welche Feinheiten es während des Rennens ankommt. Außerdem spricht Anna darüber, was die deutschen Segler von der Weltspitze noch trennt, welche Rolle Erik Heil als Skipper im Team spielt und wie sie mit der schwierigen Entscheidung umgeht, die sich ihr bald stellt: SailGP oder Olympia 2028.

Jennie Nash hosts a #amwriting podcast BookLab with guest Kathleen Barber, author of Truth Be Told and newly released Sisterhood Above All (co-written with Amayah Shaienne), and discusses Barber's range across thrillers and romance, her character-first approach, and how RushTok inspired an authentic sorority-rush thriller featuring Madison, Shay, and Ava as tensions escalate and someone dies. They define RushTok as viral TikTok coverage of University of Alabama sorority recruitment and note its broad international fascination. In the BookLab, they evaluate three first-page submissions by asking “Would we turn the page?” They praise Heather's Trust Me for strong voice, vivid Austin setting, and an intriguing problem hook, with minor notes about genre context. They decline Odeon Omega due to unearned logistics and too much dialogue despite an intriguing title/advert. They find Empty Spaces compellingly written but confusing from too many names and unclear stakes, suggesting more interiority and clarity.#AmWriting is a reader-supported publication.

This is a book lab session where we answer the most important question about your first pages.Would we pick up the book? Would we turn the page? Today, I have a really special guest with me. I have Kathleen Barber here, who is so many things. She's the author of Truth Be Told, which was adapted as a series on Apple TV, Follow Me, Both Things Are True, and just brand new, like it came out four days ago, Sisterhood Above All, with, I'm gonna try her name, Amaya Chen?How do you-Barbara: Yeah. Uh, um, yeah. That's, that's very close. I think it's Amaya Chen.Jennie: Okay. Yeah. Uh, so we're gonna hear about that in a minute. Um, I haven't, I haven't cracked it open yet, but I'm so [00:01:00] excited for it. Um, Kathleen's also an Author Accelerator certified book coach and a former attorney, and she lives in Washington, DC with her family.So welcome, Kathleen.Barbara: Thank you so much for having me. I'm really excited to be here.Jennie: So I watched your unboxing the other day. It was so fun, and I didn't realize that we had scheduled this right on top of, like the actual- Oh ... launch of your book.Barbara: No, that, that's okay. It's, it's great. Um, it gives me something to think about that's not just, like, spiraling.Like, is anybody gonna read my book? Is anybody gonna like it? Um, so it gives me something else to focus on.Jennie: Well, it's so interesting you say that because I think of you as this really seasoned pro and, you know, it's been really interesting for me to watch your career because you've written some really different kinds of books.You did a ... Well, your first book was obviously a big thriller and a huge success, and at one point, you pivoted to romance, and now you're doing ... Well, I, I saw that book list [00:02:00] called Sisterhood Above All, a soapy thriller Yes. Yes ... which is such a great description, and you did it with a collaborator. So you just seem interested in story to me.Barbara: I, I am. Yeah. I'm always very ... I always start a story with the characters. Um, and so then their story kind of spirals out from there. Um, yeah, so I, my last book that came out before this one was, was a rom-com. Um, and I was really nervous when I started writing it. I was like, “How am I going to write this when I've been writing suspense and thrillers before?”And it turns out that, like, at the heart of it, stories are stories, and people are people, and, you know, in a romance, happy things happen. In a thriller, bad things happen, but things still happen.Jennie: Amazing. So give us the overview of the brand new book, ‘cause it's, it's really juicy.Barbara: Yeah. Yeah, so I'm really excited about it.Um, Sisterhood Above All is a thriller set during sorority rush, and so it follows three different [00:03:00] women who are involved there. There's Madison, who is the president of what's she perceives as to be the coolest sorority on campus, so she's kind of the gatekeeper, and there's Shay, who is the president of a rival sorority and trying to shake, shake up the Greek institutions, and then there's Ava, who is a potential new member.She's going through rush. She's desperate to join Madison's sorority, um, and she might be a little too desperate. Uh, so you know, it's a thriller. Bad things happen. Somebody dies, um, you know, and things kind of spiral out, spiral out of control.Jennie: But tell us about the collaboration, ‘cause it's- Yeah ... so interesting how that came about and how it went and-Barbara: Yeah.You know, it was, it was a lot of fun. Um, I, like many writers, write alone, and I had never really considered collaborating with anybody before, um, but- But when I was kind of talking about this, I, I'd been pitching my agent a sorority themed thriller for a while. [00:04:00] Um, and at one point when, when Rush Talk was getting really big a couple summers ago, she was like, “This is the moment.This, you should write this book, but I think that in order to make it feel more authentic, we should bring in somebody who's living this in this moment.” Um, so one of her colleagues found Amaya, who, um, was up until very, very recently an active member of a sorority at the University of Alabama, and brought us together.And Amaya and I got along right away, and we both had kind of the same vision for what we wanted the book to be, and so collaborating with her was, was a lot of fun in a way that I had been nervous that it wouldn't be. But it was, it was a really good time, and I'm really, really proud of the book.Jennie: So for those who don't know or weren't following, can you tell us what Rush Talk-Barbara: YeahwasJennie: or isBarbara: or- Yeah ... shall be? Yes, yes, yes. So, um, so if you're gonna join a sorority, um, you go through, you go through recruitment and which is very slangily [00:05:00] called rush. Um, and so on TikTok a few years ago, um, people started sharing about their experiences during sorority rush, but specifically, uh, during sorority rush at the University of Alabama.Um, and it really took on a life of its own, like people were watching it like it was, you know, a television program. Uh, they made a documentary about it, which, you know, I'll, I will let you make your own conclusions about the documentary. Um, but people just got really, really into it, and people... And it was kind of appealing to people who had gone through sorority rush at some point, were thinking about going through a sorority rush, or who were just invested in, you know, watching people have these kind of outlandish experiences and, and share them.So, um, itJennie: was a lot of fun. My understanding was that it got very, very popular in other countries?Barbara: I- it's definitely... [00:06:00] Yeah. You know, um- So sorority, some, some sororities are international. Not, not all of them are. Um, but by and large, when they say international, they mean that there are chapters in Canada, not that, like, there are chapters in, you know, like Europe or, or other countries.And so it just, it's something that is so unique and so, like, uniquely about, like, this type of college experience that I think it's been really interesting to people in lots of different places.Jennie: Yeah, yeah. Fascinating. So obviously the book has been out, like, mere hours here. But, um, how does it feel? Are you, are you- It's excitingyou said you were excited and proud and- SoBarbara: exciting. Yeah. I'm, I'm, I'm really, really proud of the book. I love it. I mean, I know everybody, like, loves their own books, but I do. I truly, like, love this book, and I just really hope that the readers do too.Jennie: You know, it's not true that everybody loves their book.I, I was dying to have somebody on the podcast who will never come on the podcast. But I- Yeah ... I heard a story about somebody who [00:07:00] got a seven-figure deal for a book that they really didn't actually love, and then- Oh, no ... they, they wrote it. It came out, and then when they had to co- come time to do the publicity, they just dreaded it.They, it was like a, just they did it for the money. They got the money, and then didn't, didn't wanna talk about it, like felt sort of ashamed about it. And I was like, “Oh, please, come talk about that.” But of course they, they won't. So...Barbara: That's wild. Isn't that wild? That's wild. Yeah. I just, I just can't even imagine how that would feel.Um, I mean...Jennie: I know. Well, I, uh, the cover of this, um, of this new book, Sisterhood Above All, is- is really cool too. So we will link to it in the show notes, and everyone can go read it and check it out, and, um, Kathleen's other books, I've read them all, and you have such range and, um, like I said, [00:08:00] interesting stories.So with that, let's get to our, our Book Lab entries. We just always wanna start by thanking those who submitted. It's not easy to do this, to put your stuff out there with no context and no ability to talk back or anything and have random s- people on the internet, you know, talk about your stuff. So really appreciate the, the risk-taking of doing that, and we do this in order to help us all get better and, and learn, you know, what works and, and, um, for your own self or your own writing, what, what you want it to be.So what we're gonna do, as always, is I'm gonna read the entry, and then we're gonna ask ourselves, would we turn the page? So, um, the first entry is Fiction and it is, uh, author's name is [00:09:00] Heather and the name of the work is Trust Me. So here we goI can't tell you whether it's the Johnny Cash mural, clusters of candles nestled into every corner of the long stone bar, or the smoky scent of Palo Santo that tucks Austin into my head the first night. Maybe it's the unexpected jazz trio on a Tuesday in a town built for blues, country, and rock, or it could be the two cowboys deep in conversation at a table in the back of the bar.I'll later, I'll later learn that making a hot Austin guy a cowboy because of his hat, faded jeans, and scuffed boots is the same as labing- labeling a frat bro in a hoodie and sweats an athlete. It's just how they dress. I can tell you I like the looks of Austin men a hell of a lot better, especially that wide silver belt buckle that dresses up the whole package in a bow.It's going [00:10:00] on nine PM when I arrive at Whistlers in East Austin, and the bartender hands, hands me a peach-colored mezcal craft cocktail. Fresh juice, pungent herbs, and the smoky sister to tequila are the perfect salve after what's transpired since my flight landed from New York two hours earlier. I follow the snake tattoo on his foreha- forearm as the bartender shakes another cocktail for the couple next to me.Damn, he's hot, too. The crowd starts to pick up, and I signal Snake Tattoo for another before I lose his attention for good. The warm agave liquor spreads through my bones, and I start to relax. Maybe this isn't the disaster I think it is. Maybe I can actually pull it off. I glance around at the mostly twenty and thirty-something crowd angling for spots at the bar.The women wear short dresses and long hair. The men, well, those jeans are something, along with their finely cut biceps and well-placed tattoos. Can't help but glance over at those cowboys again and get a warm smile in [00:11:00] return. Easy, girl. Back to business. I have a problem, and this second mezcal is going to help me solve it.All right. What do you think? What was your first impression?Barbara: I really enjoyed that. I would definitely turn the page there. I, I feel like there was, like, a really strong sense of, sense of place, and I, in particular, I really enjoyed the, the first line, not only because it gives us that sense of place, but it, because it also then tells us something about the narrator and how she perceives the world around her in that first line.Jennie: Yeah, and, and there's a good m- a, a good question at hand here, which is what's she doing here?Barbara: Mm-hmm.Jennie: She's come from New York. We get that. It's a little unclear how, how old she is, ‘cause she's referencing other people's ages, but not her own, so we, we don't really know what's happening or what, what's, what's about.[00:12:00] Um, I mean, I thought the writ-Barbara: Well, IJennie: agree. Yeah. I thought the writing was great. It sort of tripped along-Barbara: Mm ...Jennie: um, nicely. IBarbara: like at the end where... I'm sorry. I didn't mean to step on you. No,Jennie: no, go. Yeah. I like atBarbara: the end, I like at the end where, um, she says she has a problem, and the second mezcal is gonna help her solve it.I thought that was really interesting, ‘cause I, it piqued my interest, made me wanna know what the problem is, but it's also kind of funny. Like, the mezcal's probably not gonna help you solve your problem, but it's like...Jennie: Yeah. No, it's so true. I was longing for a little bit more of a sense of what's happening here.I mean, this could be any kind of story at this point. It could be she could be a spy. She could be an assassin. She could be trying to get a guy back. Like, we, there's really no sense of what the story's gonna be. I always like that on the first page. What about you?Barbara: Yeah. I, I agree with you. I, it, it could, it could go in any direction.I kind of [00:13:00] sense from the tone that it's, you know, it's going to be something, uh- Well, I guess I don't know. You know, honestly. Now, now that I'm looking at it again and thinking about it, um, you're right, it could be... The, the problem that she has could be a thriller problem, or it could be a romantic problem, since she's kind of made, made comments about the different men.I think that was a hint to me that it might be a romantic problem that she's having, but I actually don't know.Jennie: Yeah. The, the- obviously she's clocking all the hot guys in this bar, which tells us something, either about her or what she's up to. We don't know. Um, but yeah, it's, um, really good detail, like the, you mentioned that first line, and I liked the line about her sh- the self-awareness about, you know, she calls him a cowboy and then she says, you know, sort of like, “Oh, right, that's not really fair.”Mm-hmm. “We don't know.” [00:14:00] You know, that, I thought that was, made me think- Yeah ... this character's gonna know themselves.Barbara: Mm-hmm. Yeah. I agree with that. I, I also really enjoyed the kind of specificity that she uses in the descriptions, like when she talks about, you know, the, the cocktail that she's drinking, and the tattoo on the bartender's arm.Like, I just felt like those details really made the story come alive for me. So that, like, even if I didn't exactly know where we were going, I could, I could picture where we were.Jennie: Yeah. Yeah. That's really well said. Well, we like this. I think I would, I would turn the page.Barbara: I would, I would too, yeah. Mm-hmm.Jennie: We would turn the page. Um, I mean, the only notes I think for me would be, I mean, it's always so tricky, because if we were picking this book up, the title, Trust Me, doesn't really tell us anything, but the cover would.Outro: Mm-hmm.Jennie: The vibe of the cover would. We'd have a little more context for where we were and [00:15:00] what this was about, and that would probably help with the issue that, that I have, which is, well, what kind of book is this?We don't know. Um, and you know, now that I'm thinking of it, we don't even know whe- where we are in time. Um, I'm, I'm assuming modern day, but I don't know why I assumed that. It, maybe it's not. So maybe just a tiny bit more of a sense of- Uh, context for the reader. Mm-hmm. But that's my only note. L- do you have any notes?Barbara: Yeah. You know, I honestly don't think that I, I have any additional notes. I mean, I, I really enjoyed this selection, and I would definitely keep reading here.Jennie: Well, Heather, that's high praise, soBarbara: Yeah, I, I usually have ideas. I usually have notes but I don't.Jennie: Yeah, that's, uh, that's g- a good one for us to start with, and very fun, I hope, for you to hear that from Kathleen.All right, let's [00:16:00] go to our, our next one. This is fiction. It's called Odeon Omega, um, and the author is ... Well, the, the, um, it's coming across as, um, Sound Smith, but who knows what that is? So, um, Odeon Omega, they will know who they are, for sure. All right, here we go. “The grand O-O opening continues all month long at your new entertainment destination, the one and only, first of its kind on this or any other coast, the all-new, all-excitement Odeon Omega.‘Gah!' Emmy shrieked from the bathroom. ‘You can turn the TV volume down now, Seth. We're done.' Seth was still lying in bed, his naked body mostly covered with Emmy's cream-colored, satiny soft sheets. He chuckled while reaching for the remote. ‘I wasn't the one who turned it up.' ‘I know that. I have to [00:17:00] turn the TV way up like that, though.It's the only way to drown out the neighbors. The walls in this place are so damn thin, and they're always banging on them, disturbing me when I'm trying to have sex.' ‘Those b******s,' Seth chuckled. ‘I'm saying, I like ... I'm saying, like, what am I supposed to do? Not f**k? Hey, that is so not an option,' Seth p- Seth pressed the mute button, then went back to lying on his back, his hands behind his head.Another noise startled him, this one coming from Emmy's phone. A toneless version of Girls Just Wanna Have Fun blared from Emmy's clutch purse. ‘Turn that off, too,' Emmy shouted from the bathroom. ‘That's my mother's ringtone. I don't feel like talking to her right now.' Seth rolled over to the nightstand and opened her clutch and found the button to silence Emmy's phone.He lingered on the image of Emmy's mother. ‘Wow, Emmy, you and your mom could pass for sisters, easy.' ‘Ew, don't tell me that,' Emmy said. ‘Tell her that, but not me. Bet you're already imagining yourself in a threesome with her and me, [00:18:00] aren't you?' ‘Huh, what's that?' Seth was distracted by Emmy's driver's license in the clutch's interior pocket.He slid it out of the pocket and read what he assumed was Emmy's birth name. ‘Myrtle? What? Your re- your real name is Myrtle?' Emmy stepped out of the bathroom, still naked from their lovemaking, with a sky blue-colored towel clenched between her legs.”That's a vibe.Barbara: It is. It is, yeah. I mean, opening, uh, opening in the aftermath of sex is a, is a bold choice. I'll be honest, I don't feel like I have very much context for what's happening here. Um, it seems like Emmy and Seth don't know each other veryJennie: well. I got that sense, too. I got that sense, too, and that the sex that she has this system for turning up the TV has been for other people.Barbara: Mm-hmm. [00:19:00] Yeah. On, on that note, though, I did kind of have, uh, a fundamental disbelief about the setup that was giving me a stumbling block when I was reading this, just because it didn't seem to make a lot of sense to me that she would turn up the television to distract herself from the neighbors, when I would think that that would be more distracting or, you know, just use music or...And I didn't really understand why she would be explaining it to him after the fact instead of in the moment. Um, that felt like it was perhaps just put there for the reader,Jennie: so that we could be distracted. Yeah, it was a little explainy, a little... Yeah, like a, um, we use that term info dump, and an info dump doesn't have to be a whole scene.It can just be a line like that where I, I didn't buy it either that she would actually say that to him now. Mm-hmm. If... He probably would've said, “Why are you turning the TV on?”Barbara: Right.Jennie: Earlier.Barbara: Yeah. Yeah, [00:20:00] yeah, and it seemed like that would be the conversation that would have before we got to this moment. So that was something that, that I struggled with a bit.Jennie: I also didn't believe, it felt like, uh, unearned that he's pulling this license out of her purse. I could see, I could see that he might have seen something on her phone if he's turning her phone off. But-Barbara: Mm-hmm ...Jennie: to, to actually then see... I kept, like I was trying to think through the logistics. Like, okay, see one of those little slidey things inside a purse, but you can't see- Mmthe driver's license. Like, why would he reach in and pull it out? It felt like the author wanted us to get to this moment where- Mm-hmm ... Seth got this information.Barbara: Mm-hmm. Yeah.Jennie: It, yeah, it felt unearned to me.Barbara: Yeah. I, I agree, especially because it doesn't seem like Seth knows her very well, obviously. Then for him to be [00:21:00] digging around in her clutch purse felt- Untrue to the situation, um, unless something else was going on that we don't hear about.Jennie: Yeah, yeah. Um, this... When I said, like, “Well, this is a vibe,” this character has a, a tone or a style or sense about, like a sort of swagger about- Mm-hmm ... her that interests me. Um, I happen to be in the middle... I'm behind everybody else, but I'm in the middle of reading Yesteryear. Oh. Have you read-Barbara: Oh. Yes, yes.Jennie: Don't tell me what ha- I, I- Don't tell me ...Barbara: I w- I won't. I was also late to it, and everybody was trying to tell me about it, and I was just constantly walking around going, “No spoilers, no spoilers.” Yeah.Jennie: But the, that character has, has such a brashness- Mm-hmm ... of point of view and opinion in both, um, both parts of the story there, and there's something about this character that rem- reminds me of that.[00:22:00] There's like a, I don't know, um, a, just a brashness. S- And I, I've been enjoying that protagonist- Mm-hmm ... the Yesteryear protagonist, just ‘cause it's unusual. I've read a tiny bit, and I know people are saying, “Oh, she is so unlikable,” but there's just something of a character that's so owning their, um-Barbara: Mm-hmmJennie: way, and this woman's ownership of, of her sexuality, I guess, I, I thought was- Hmm ... interesting.Barbara: Yeah. No, I, I, I know what you mean, and I, I, I am intrigued by her as a character because, I mean, again, here she, she seems to have kind of an interesting setup in a, an apartment building that has thin walls, um, has this system of turning up her television, um, but not with Seth before.So, you know, it seems like she's had several partners back to this, this space. Um, but she seems very, very confident and, like you said, kind of swaggery [00:23:00] with him. Um, so yeah, I, I am intrigued to know more about, like, who she is and what makes her that way. Um...Jennie: Yeah. Uh, for me, probably not enough to turn the page.Um-Barbara: Not for, not for me either. I-Jennie: Yeah. And, and I have to say that the thing that intrigues me the most about this whole thing is that the title of this book is Odeon Omega, and that's the random, um- I think that's the random show on TVBarbara: Yeah,Jennie: the- Am I ma- am IBarbara: making that up? No, no, no, that, that, that's the first line.It's, um, it sounds like it's maybe like a commercial. I was kind of envisioning it from the way that it was spelled out as, you know, kind of like, uh, oh, the way that like a, a carnival or like a car salesman is like, “The grand o- o- opening.” Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, that's kind of how I was envisioning it.Um, so I, I didn't, I did enjoy s- seeing that right up front, um, [00:24:00] but I wanted more context to understand what it was, because without that, I, I don't know what that line means. Um-Jennie: And that just the author's choice, like, okay, the TV's on f- for a random reason- Mm-hmm ... or for her systematic sex reason, and, and she's hearing this show opening, and then that's the title of the book.Like, something about this, I, I thought of it as a, yeah, like a carnival or a show or something- Mm-hmm ... a theme park, um, that there's g- that's gonna become central to the story. It's kind of an interesting way of putting that in in, and presumably- Mm ... it will come back, um- Yeah ... in an important way. But I, I was intrigued by that most of all, actually.Barbara: Yeah. No, same, especially because that's the moment that Emmy says, “Turn the volume down.” So I was, uh, so it made it seem, to me at least, that there was something about that particular advertisement that she [00:25:00] was reacting to, and I wanted to know what that was.Jennie: Well, that's a really great point, and I think if we were to give this writer some guidance- Um, it might be to make more of that.Mm. If the character reacts more to that. Like, in, you know, that she can't hear it or that it's upsets her in a particular way, or she gives us some information or context about that so that we, I don't know, I guess we need to be more grounded in, in what's happening.Barbara: Yeah. And I also just feel like that would give us a little bit more s- because it, that's right there in the title, so it's obviously gonna be important to the story.And so like that would give us a little bit of curiosity about what it is and would propel us to try and understand why she's reacting the way that she is. Um-Jennie: Yeah. And just from a technical [00:26:00] standpoint, I'm looking at this entry, it's almost all dialogue.Barbara: Mm-hmm.Jennie: Which I think is hard on a, an opening page.Uh, don't you? I think-Barbara: I, I do. I, I would really have liked to see a little bit more interiority from Emmy here to kind of, I don't know, understand how she feels, not only about that advertisement, but about, about Seth. Like, did she li- does she like Seth, or is he just like a guy, you know? Um, I just wanted to know a little bit more about how she, who I'm presuming is the protagonist, is experiencing this scene.Jennie: Yeah. Um, yeah, there was even a moment when I thought, “Is she selling sex?” Mm-hmm. Is, is that... Is she a sex worker? Um, you know- True ... so too many questions about what's, what's happening here, which I think could be solved by, um, balancing out the dialogue, um, w- with some other information. [00:27:00] Mm-hmm. Um, yeah, I mean, I'm, um, I'm hoping that this character gets a story that we want, we want to read ‘cause I'm intrigued.Barbara: Yeah. Same. Same.Jennie: Yeah. All right. We have one more that we're going to, um, read. Do you wanna read this one? From your little, “Oh, oh, oh,” opening- ... I was like, “Oh, maybe you're a good narrator. I'm not.”Barbara: Sure. Sure. I'll, I'll read it. Um, so this one is called Empty Spaces. Um, it's fiction. I'm not entirely certain who the author is, unless I'm missing that in the spreadsheet.It looks like perhaps it starts with a T. Um, but here, here is the submission. “April 1st, 1995. ‘Please, please, please,' Corey sputtered, gripping the black receiver with both hands while the operator relayed her [00:28:00] request. ‘Person-to-person call for Tess. Will you accept the charges?' ‘No, she's asleep.' Corey knew her mother was at the beige phone on the kitchen wall a thousand miles away.Then her father's voice in the background. ‘Honey, let the girl talk to her dau-...' And dial tone. Corey slammed the receiver back into its cradle. ‘What the f**k?' She missed. Her knuckles scraped the chrome holder, and she unleashed her fury on the edge of the black payphone. ‘F**k, f**k, f*****g f****r.' The rain that had been collecting in the roo- in the rim of the payphone box was shaken loose by her tantrum and cascaded down inside the collar of her flay- flight jacket.Well, Charlie's flight jacket. ‘Skipper,' came Top's quiet baritone from behind her. ‘We're ready to roll.' ‘Thanks, Top.' Corey accepted the styrofoam cup of coffee he handed her, then sloshed her way to the lead truck, Arlo trotting at her heels. She hoisted herself up into the passenger side of the rig. Arlo curled up beside her and dug his head into her lap.Why did her mother have to be such a [00:29:00] little b***h? And on this night. Was it too much to expect her to remember that it was Charlie's birthday? No, Maria remembered. She was the one who kept a file of birthday cards, organized by month and paper clipped to envelopes, neatly stamped and addressed to the recipient.But nobody sends a birthday card to a dead person.” After a few minutes, Top started his status report. “Got word from the 24-hour man. The lot they gave us was too small and underwater. He put up a fuss and got us moved to the football field at the high school.” Corey took a sip. “It'll be nice to have a dry lot.Daisy's got that one nail that looks a little soft.” She fiddled with the radio, settling on a country station, what else was there, and yawned. “Where are we headed tonight?” And that is it.Jennie: Wow, well, author T., uh, Wood, what a treat to have Kathleen Barber read your, read your stuff like that. Gee, you, you sounded amazing.You sounded like you'd written that. That was so cool. Do you- I, uh- ... narrate your own books?Barbara: I, I do not, but I have [00:30:00] small children, and I read aloud every night.Jennie: Do you do the voices?Barbara: Oh, yes, I definitely do the voices.Jennie: Do you do all of them, like, in aBarbara: very- I do all of them.Jennie: You do?Barbara: Yeah, yeah. My, my kids were really into the Wings of Fire series, so I've read all of those books, and there are many, many dragons, and they all have different voices, and if I do not remember the different voice, my children will be like, “Mommy, that's not what Peril sounds like,” and then I'll have to remember and try again,Jennie: so.Take notes? Do you have, do you have a guide? Do you just remember? Um,Barbara: no, I just, I just try and remember.Jennie: Oh,Barbara: my. I should take notes, but I'm not that organized. I just go off.Jennie: That, that's amazing. That's amazing. Um, just while we're talking about it, is there audio already for the new book, for, uh, Sisterhood Above All?Barbara: There, there is. There is, yeah. Um, I recently got, uh, got a peek at it, and I am very, very excited. We have a different [00:31:00] narrator for each of the POV characters, and they are all fantastic. Super excited.Jennie: Amazing. All right, so back to this, back to this work. Um, I thought this was great. Uh, did you, did you, how did you feel reading it?Barbara: I, I, I enjoyed reading it. Um, when, when I was, when I was reading it the first time, I, I found myself getting stopped a few times because I felt like there were a lot of names, and I was confused. Um, you know, it's, it's in- I don't feel like an author needs to spell out for me who every single character is on the first page at all.Um, it just felt like in a small amount of time, there were a lot of names that I felt like I was trying to keep track of, and that was a bit confusing for me. Slowed me down a little bit.Jennie: I agree with that. Actually, the first time that I read it And [00:32:00] admittedly, I was scanning these really fast the first time I read it, but there, there's something to that, how things hit your head.But I thought that, um, I thought Daisy was a horse because I was like the one nail that looks a little soft, like is who, what- Yeah ... where would that matter that we need to be on grass? And, and, and then I was like, “Wait, who even is Daisy?” So I got stuck on that- Yeah ... for sure. And, um, and then the, um, there's a nickname that I think the main...I think Corey, the, the other character calls her Skipper, so I was confused by that. Right. So it, yeah. Yeah. Are those some of the things that you mean?Barbara: Yeah. The, those was... And I was also just a little confused when I first started reading that it starts out with person to person call for Tess, and then we're talking about her mother.And I, I thought at first that her mother was [00:33:00] named Tess, and that, and that the operator was trying to reach her, and that her mother was simply not, simply not wanting to talk even though she was by the phone. But then later on I realized that her mother is actually named Maria, and that Tess must be somebody else.Um, I think Corey's daughter, but I didn't, I didn't catch that on first reading. I had to read it again to be able to understand that.Jennie: Yeah. So there, there is a lot going on for sure. When I said that I thought it was great, I- I'm, I'm hoping that this character's some kind of trucker just because that's cool, and, um, it, it seemed like we have some tension both in whatever's happening around...You know, like, they have a 24-hour man. They're... Uh, so there's something afoot. Like, there's a pr- a project or something afoot that feels like it's not gonna go well or something's gonna [00:34:00] happen there. Um, and I also, you know, now we have the thing with the, well, we learn I think it's the mom. But, um, th- there- Yeahwere enough elements of intrigue, like, what's, what's going on here, what's gonna happen, that I... And I thought it was well-written.Barbara: Yeah. No, and I, one of the things that I really enjoyed was the way, the, the descriptions of what the, what the scenery looks like with the, with like the weather. So like there's, there's the rain, um, there's another line about how when they're like getting into the truck that like the lot is underwater, so I'm kind of like envisioning...I actually don't know what time of day it is, but for some reason I'm envisioning it being a little bit darker, but that might just be because of, of the rain that's happening. Maybe that's what's making me think that it's, it's a little bit darker outside, but I'm like envisioning the, the rain, and they're getting into the rig.But I, I didn't get that she was a truck driver. I, I, I think maybe... But I, but I, [00:35:00] I don't know. I don't know. I thought that maybe she was some sort of- Some sort of, like, news person. But I don't... ‘Cause I don't actually, I don't actually know what a 24-hour man is, so I think that might have... Okay. Yeah. No, I don't know.I was just like... So I, so I didn't know. Um, but I was, I was curious to know... Yeah. I was gonna say, I was curious to know why she was making this call to her mother at this moment, and why she was so desperate for her mother to answer the phone at this moment. Um, so yeah, th- those were, those are questions that I had.Jennie: Usually, back in the day, which this was, um, will you accept the charges was something you did when you had no money.Barbara: Mm-hmm.Jennie: You know, you would call home or wherever and, ‘cause you didn't have money to make a call, so the operator would place the call and ask the [00:36:00] person to accept the charges. Mm-hmm. And normally you would do that with somebody who knows you have, you're having a problem, or, you know.So, like, this is a very particular moment that led me to believe that she didn't, she didn't even have money for a call. So- Mm-hmm ... I don't know why I placed her as a trucker. Like, she climbed into the- Oh, okay ... the rig. She s- she sloshed her way to the lead truck. She's fiddling with the radio station. Like, what, where we headed?Yeah. Like, we're just on a job. I totally made her a truckerBarbara: and I- Yeah. No, no, no. I, well, I think maybe the reason I thought maybe she wasn't was because there were all these other... Because, like, Top is there, and the, it's, it's a lead truck, and she's, she's getting into the passenger side. And there's also a, a, a dog, I assume.I assume Arlo's a dog. I suppose it could be some other sort of animal that's, that's with her, but I, I assume Arlo's a dog. Um- Well,Jennie: so this is actually a really great [00:37:00] conversation for anybody listening, and particularly for this author. You can see that if you confuse your reader They're gonna spend their time with these kinds of questions.Like, is the mother Tess or is it Corey? Is this woman a trucker or not? Is... You know, and those are not the kind of questions you want to be leaving your reader with. Those are-Barbara: Yeah ...Jennie: um, I don't know w- how we would describe them, almost logistics. They're,Barbara: they're more like de- yeah, yeah, exactly. ‘Cause I mean, they're, I, I, I enjoy getting a good question at the start of reading something, you know?Like, you know, I mean, for example, it's, it's really interesting that Corey made what seems to be a collect call, and they didn't just not answer it. They answered it, and then hung up on her, which feels, like, very purposeful. And so, like, I'm very, I'm very curious about that relationship. I'm curious about the fact that, that Charlie is, is dead, um, and [00:38:00] who Charlie is to the, to the narrator.These are things that, like, have piqued my curiosity, and I would like to learn more about, um, would inspire me to read more, to learn more about those things. Uh, but then those other things that we were talking about, like, well, like, who is this? W- what kind of animal is Daisy? Like, what are, where are they actually going?Like, what, what is, what is the goal here? What, what is the deal about the, the lot and the, and the football field? The, w- what are we gonna do here? Those are questions that, that slowed me down, and made me less likely to want to keep reading.Jennie: Yeah. I loved that line, “But nobody sends a birthday card to a dead person.”Barbara: Yeah.Jennie: And I, I'm thinking- Really poignant ... that that's the center of this story, you know, s- who, who was Charlie? I think you said that. Mm-hmm. Was-Barbara: Mm-hmm.Jennie: And ‘cause she's got the jacket.Barbara: Yeah.Jennie: She's got Charlie's jacket, so- That, that'sBarbara: true, and sh- and she's wearing it, I think. [00:39:00]Jennie: Yeah, and, and so- I mean, I suppose Charlie could be a child if this person is older.Barbara: Yeah.Jennie: Like, you know, um, but y- I ... So I had this weird reaction to this, which is I thought it was fun, and maybe that was you reading it. I thought, I thought the writing was great, but I wouldn't turn the page. I'd be frustrated. You know, if, if there was another book or another story that was, um, didn't make me work so hard- Mmto figure out where I was or what was happening, I would choose that over this. So it's a weird combination for me of great job, but it's a no for me.Barbara: Yeah,Jennie: that- What about you?Barbara: That's, that's how I felt. There, there were a lot of elements here that I think are, that are intriguing and that if presented slightly differently would make me want to turn the page.But as, as it is right now, I, I would not. [00:40:00]Jennie: I agree with that. I think it feels close. Mm-hmm. Um, so how could we give this person some direction for, um- Yeah ... well, you talked about all the names, and I don't think the solution is ID all these names.Barbara: Right.Jennie: Mm-hmm. That's gonna be clunky. Or ID all these people. Um-Barbara: Yeah.I, I think for, for me personally, what I think would help was if we were to get a bit more of a peek inside the nar- inside Corey's head, so we could understand from her perspective why it's important that she's making this call, like, what the goal is with the truck. Um, if we just saw it a little bit more from her view and got to know a little bit more of the information that she already holds in her head, I think that would go a long way to making the story feel more accessible to the reader.Jennie: That's really well said, and [00:41:00] hopefully that helps the writer for your next pass to, to think about. But I- there's something, there's something good I think here going on. Mm-hmm. And, uh, I have the same, um, comment that I had earlier. I, I wanna know what kind of story I'm in, and I'm s- and I'm not sure. We were talking about sorting out these relationships and what's happening with the field and the truck and then the weather and all that, but again, is thisThere's no sense of what kind of story this is going to be. And, um, I, I always want a little more. And, and the title is Empty Spaces, which doesn't help, um- Yeah ... point us to that. I hear that. So just a little more, um, of a sense of what world are we? What, what problem do we have? What world are we in? Um, you know, and even just that last bit where the character turns the radio station on and yawns, “Where are we headed [00:42:00] tonight?”It- there's, there's not an urgency of It's, s- nobody's running from anything. There's no- Right ... threat, uh,except for the mom who won't answer the call.Barbara: Yeah, yeah.Jennie: Yeah. Um, so a little, a little more of a sense of what's at stake. Um, I know, we always are asking so much on a first page, but- I know ...Barbara: uh. I know, but e- you know, it's, there are so many things to read, you know, from, like agents, editors, readers, all have so many things to choose from, and so it's just so important to nail that first page, you know?Jennie: How many times do you rewrite your first pages?Barbara: Oh my gosh, so many times. So many times. Yeah. Yeah, well, um, ‘cause usually I write the first page, and then I write the rest of the book, and then I'm like, “Oh, like, the rest of the book does something different. I need to go back and, like, make this first page...”Also, I do, I often do the thing that I think a lot of writers do, which is, [00:43:00] once you've written a little bit further, you realize that, like, you've started at the wrong spot. Um, I mean, the, one of, one of the things that helps me when I, when I think to do it is to use one of the exercises that's in, that's in your work, where you, where you start what, you, you write the beginning and the ending before you even start anything.Um, and I, I, when I remember to do that the right way, that really, definitely helps me. Um, but I don't always remember to do that, and so I have, like, partway in, and then I'm like, “Wait, no, the first page.” So,Jennie: it's- Well, that, yeah, that's a, um, a step in the blueprint for a book book. Um, it's a good one, for sure.Uh, well, thank you so much for joining me for, for this, Kathleen, and congratulations on the new book. Um, for everyone listening, go check out, you can find everything at KathleenBarber.com. And, um, you can find Sisterhood Above All, which is brand new and just out and sounds like so much [00:44:00] fun. I, it's on my TBR, TBR.Yay. I just can't read, I just can't read thrillers at night. I get too scared. So,Barbara: um-Jennie: That'sBarbara: fair. That's fair ...Jennie: I, I have to wait till I'm, like, on a plane or, um, you know, somewhere where I'm reading during the day. Yeah. Is this one, is this one l- scary scary?Barbara: I mean, it's, it's not, like, scary scary. It's, it's not, like, uh- It's, it's not like there's someone who's out there to kill you for reasons that you cannot control.You know what I mean? Like, it's like- Yeah, yeah ... it would be scary to the people inside the book, but it should not be scary to you. ButJennie: I understand how- Well, we don't need to reas- We don't need to reassure me because people love these, love these- Yeah ... and, uh, what a fun, fun setting and setup for- Thank youa thriller. It's, it's exciting. Thanks. So can't wait to see how, how the world receives it. And- Mm ... um, I always hate to say this to somebody whose book just came out, but can't wait to see what you do next. [00:45:00]Barbara: Don't worry, I'm already writingJennie: stuff. Oh, yeah. Do you, ooh, do you wanna, do you wanna tell or no?Barbara: I, I do not, just ‘cause I get really superstitious about it, but, um, but I have something that I'm working on that I'm excited about, so you know, we'll see how it goes.Jennie: I love it.

[REDIFFUSION] Un été d'archis - #113 Guillaume Verdier, architecte naval en bande organisée

Into The Wind

Pour rythmer vos vacances, Into The Wind vous propose, du 31 juillet au 21 août, Un Été d'archis, soit la rediffusion de quatre épisodes dont les invités étaient des architectes navals ayant marqué l'histoire de la course au large. Des minis aux Ultim en passant par les Class40, Imoca, Ocean Fifty ou "one-off", ils nous racontent leur parcours et comment ils ont contribué à donner naissance à des bateaux de légende.--Il parle d'une voix calme et tranquille, mais sous chaque intonation percent les convictions et une passion pour son métier, qu'il raconte pour autant avec beaucoup de recul. A 54 ans, Guillaume Verdier est une star de l'architecture navale.Ses bateaux ont tout gagné, ou presque. Le vainqueur du Vendée Globe, Macif Santé Prévoyance ? C'est lui. Le vainqueur de The Ocean Race, 11th Hour Racing ? C'est encore lui. Le vainqueur de la Route du Rhum et de l'Arkéa Ultim Challenge Brest, Maxi Edmond de Rothschild ? C'est toujours lui. Et la liste n'est pas exhaustive, puis ses plans ont franchi la ligne en tête en Mini, en Class40, en Multi50, etc. Sans parler, bien sûr, de la Coupe de l'America où il oeuvre pour Team New Zealand depuis 2010.On parle de "plans Verdier", mais lui ne vous parlera que de son équipe, une bande d'une quinzaine d'experts dans tous les métiers de l'architecture navale, avec qui il collabore depuis de nombreuses années et qu'il prend soin d'énumérer, angoissé à l'idée d'en oublier certains.C'est au fond de la rade de Brest, à Logonna-Daoulas, qu'il découvre la voile en camps de vacances ; s'il adore la nature, il ne se prendra jamais de passion pour la course côté pratique. Destiné aux grandes écoles d'ingénieurs, il bifurque après la prépa et entre à l'école d'archi de Southampton, avant de compléter son cursus à l'université voisine. Un détour par l'université de Copenhague et le voilà chez Finot-Conq en 1997, à l'époque où le cabinet de Jouy-en-Josas domine le Vendée Globe. Il y apprend le métier pendant 4 ans, travaillant sur une flopée d'Imoca, avant de devenir indépendant.Il travaille ensuite sur le projet d'Hydraplaneur d'Yves Parlier, où il rencontre une bonne partie de ceux qui l'entourent encore aujourd'hui : Benjamin Muyl, Hervé Penfornis et Romaric Neyhousser... Après un premier passage marquant sur la Coupe de l'America chez Areva Challenge pour l'édition 2007, puis il entame une frutueuse collaboration avec VPLP qui se lance alors dans les Imoca. Leur premier bébé, Safran, révolutionne le genre, premier d'une longue lignée.En 2010, il intègre l'une des plus belles équipes du monde : Team New Zealand, les All Blacks de la voile. Avec eux, il va d'abord perdre (en 2013) puis remporter la Coupe en 2017 et 2021, Une expérience profondément marquante. En parallèle il continue à concevoir énormément de bateaux : des Imoca, bien sûr (qu'il dessine désormais sans VPLP), mais aussi des Minis, des Class40 et des Ultims : après Gitana 17, qui marque son époque, sa prochaine grosse livraison est Gitana 18. Nul doute que cette nouvelle machine made in Verdier & Co. ne devrait laisser personne indifférent !Diffusé le 21 février 2025Rediffusé le 14 août 2026Générique : In Closing – Days PastPost-production : Grégoire LevillainHébergé par Ausha.

Tous les mercredis, du 29 juillet au 19 août, Navigantes vous propose Un été The Ocean Race, soit la rediffusion de quatre épisodes dont les invitées étaient des navigatrices qui, le 1er septembre, s'élanceront de New York à destination de Lorient pour la première édition de The Ocean Race Atlantic, répétition générale avec le départ en janvier de The Ocean Race monde. L'occasion de redécouvrir le parcours de femmes venues à la course au large via différents chemins.--Anne Beaugé est une des très rares femmes onboard reporters qui racontent et filment les courses depuis les bateaux. “Nous sommes peu de femmes, pourtant, elles ont complètement leur place dans ce milieu. Pour moi, c'était vraiment la meilleure façon d'allier mes deux passions”, confie-t-elle. Pourtant rien ne prédestinait au départ la jeune femme, originaire des Lilas, en Seine-Saint-Denis, à emprunter ce chemin, elle qui a été plusieurs années graphiste dans le monde de la publicité et de la mode, entre Paris et New York. En revanche, la photo a toujours été son truc. La mer l'est peu à peu devenu : “J'ai fait des stages de voile quand j'étais petite, chaque fois, j'ai adoré la sensation d' être en mer.” Un jour, elle choisit de donner un cours nouveau à son existence : “J'ai embarqué sur un bateau qui ralliait la Corse, le skipper cherchait des gens pour le ramener en convoyage, je n'y connaissais rien, mais j'y suis allée.” Le virus la prend, au point de se retrouver au départ de la Mini Transat 2019. Un jour, alors qu'elle fait des photos avec Sam Davies sur le Défi Azimut, elle croise la route de Paul Meilhat qui, quelques semaines plus tard, lui propose de l'embarquer sur Biotherm pour The Ocean Race : “Je n'ai pas hésité longtemps !” Son job : filmer la vie à bord, rendre compte de ce que vivent les marins, sans participer aux manoeuvres. Quand on lui demande ce qu'elle préfère, elle évoque “les moments de vie pas prévus”, mais aussi quand elle va installer sa go pro à l'avant du bateau “pour essayer de prendre des images dingues”.  A 37 ans, Anne Beaugé est une femme épanouie qui, derrière son objectif, a su créer une relation forte avec les marins. Elle a pris le temps de se livrer, quelques jours avant le départ de l'avant-dernière étape de The Ocean Race entre Aarhus et La Haye.Navigantes est animé par Hélène Cougoule et produit par Sailorz.Diffusé le 7 juin 2023Rediffusé le 12 août 2026Post production :  Grégoire LevillainGénérique : All the summer girlsHébergé par Ausha.

L'occasion pour lui de se former à l'électronique embarquée et d'être associé à un premier projet d'envergure, le record du tour du monde en solitaire (Trophée Saint-Exupéry), battu fin 2016 par Thomas Coville.Il explique comment il a peu à peu pris des responsabilités dans l'équipe, au point de devenir responsable du pôle électronique, et comment, à force d'être embarqué à bord du nouveau Sodebo Ultim 3, lancé en 2019, il a pris goût à la navigation. Au point de postuler pour faire partie de l'équipage sur le Trophée Jules Verne, non sans s'être formé préalablement sur le circuit Ocean Fifty aux côtés de Pierre Quiroga.Léonard Legrand raconte ensuite sa relation avec Thomas Coville, son souvenir marquant du Jules Verne 2025-2026, puis comment s'est monté le projet Sodebo Fifty.

Des minis aux Ultim en passant par les Class40, Imoca, Ocean Fifty ou "one-off", ils nous racontent leur parcours et comment ils ont contribué à donner naissance à des bateaux de légende.--Comment résumer en quelques lignes quatre décennies d'un duo d'amis devenus références de l'architecture navale ? Pas simple...Marc Van Peteghem et Vincent Lauriot Prévost sont tous les deux parisiens d'origine, et naviguent en famille pendant les vacances dans les années 1960 et 1970, l'un en Méditerranée, l'autre en Bretagne. Ils se rencontrent à Southampton, à la fin des années 1970, où la formation en architecture navale n'est pas encore aussi réputée qu'aujourd'hui. Ils ne finiront pas leur cursus : ils rêvent déjà de simplicité, de légèreté, de multicoque, surtout - tout ce que n'offre pas encore l'école.S'ils prennent des chemins séparés pour leurs premiers jobs, Marc appelle Vincent quelques années plus tard pour dessiner un foiler de 50 pieds commandé par Vincent Lévy : Gérard Lambert sera le premier plan signé VPLP. On est en 1983, c'est le début d'une longue et prolifique carrière pour un sigle qui va entrer dans le langage commun de la voile.Van Pet' et Lauriot Prévost sont, au début, des spécialistes de la course (Poulain, Biscuits Cantreau), et sur trois coques. Mais très vite, ils se lancent dans la plaisance, sur deux coques, avec les Lagoon, qui seront construits à plusieurs milliers d'exemplaires. Ils gagnent la Route du Rhum avec Florence Arthaud et Pierre 1er en 1990, puis avec Laurent Bourgnon et Lionel Lemonchois, gagnent des Trophée Jules Verne, participent à l'Hydroptère, dessinent Groupama 3 et le maxi-trimaran Banque Populaire V, la liste est trop longue !La Coupe de l'America, en 2010 - ils sont embarqués dans le défi américain et conçoivent USA 17, le trimaran de 90 pieds à aile rigide qui va l'emporter - emmène VPLP dans un autre monde : après la course et la plaisance, Marc Van Peteghem et Vincent Lauriot Prévost s'intéressent au transport maritime et aux bateaux de travail, en ayant très tôt l'intuition que l'expertise de la course pouvait servir dans le monde de la marine marchande. Un transfert de technologie illustré par le lancement en 2023 de Canopée, un roulier de 120 mètres de long, propulsé par des ailes rigides, conçu par le cabinet.Entre-temps, il y aura eu les Imoca avec Guillaume Verdier et des victoires dans toutes les courses dont le Vendée Globe, des Ultims, des Ocean Fifty, le Figaro 3...En 2021, les deux copains de Southampton mesurent ensemble qu'il est temps de passer progressivement la main à la nouvelle génération d'une agence qui emploie près d'une quarantaine de personnes.Pas de regrets, l'histoire est belle. Jamais d'engueulades ? "Si, comme dans un couple ! (...) Mais ce qu'on n'a jamais perdu, c'est la confiance l'un envers l'autre".Diffusé le 20 septembre 2024Rediffusé le 7 août 2026Générique : In Closing – Days PastPost-production : Grégoire LevillainHébergé par Ausha.

L'occasion de redécouvrir le parcours de femmes venues à la course au large via différents chemins.--A 42 ans, Marie Riou a un palmarès et une expérience à en faire pâlir plus d'un. Deux participations aux Jeux olympiques, quatre titres de championne du monde de Nacra 17 avec Billy Besson et une victoire sur la Volvo Ocean Race avec Dongfeng Race Team aux côtés de Charles Caudrelier en 2017-2018. Ce qui lui a valu le titre prestigieux, et rare pour une Française, de meilleure navigatrice du monde en 2018, partagée avec la Néerlandaise Caroljin Brouwer, également de l'aventure. “Une incroyable reconnaissance”, confie celle qui a bénéficié des quotas de femmes à bord imposés par l'organisateur pour participer à la course autour du monde. Ce qui lui fait dire : “Ça m'a permis de faire des choses extraordinaires, mais en réalité, ça ne devrait pas exister ! Ça devrait être naturel d'avoir des femmes à bord.”.Dans la foulée de la Volvo, Marie Riou est devenue la première femme à avoir un poste clé en SailGP, recrutée dès la première saison, en 2019, comme régleuse de vol du F50 français, et ce bien avant que les navigatrices ne deviennent “obligatoires” sur le circuit. Elle en garde un souvenir fort, sans pour autant s'être sentie comme un “ovni” dans un univers jusqu'alors masculin : “C'est vrai que j'étais la seule femme, mais on se connaissait tous, car on s'était tous plus ou moins croisés sur les compétitions de voile olympique ; homme ou femme sur ces postes clés de pilote, de régleur d'aile ou de vol, c'est la même chose. C'est bien aujourd'hui que les femmes soient à bord, ça va dans le bon sens ”.En 2021, Amélie Grassi fait appel à la Brestoise pour sa première Transat Jacques Vabre en Class40, exercice auquel elle a pris goût, au point qu'elle se verrait bien remettre ça, mais en Imoca… Avis aux amateurs ! En septembre dernier, elle est devenue maman d'une petite fille et reconnaît que “la question de la maternité est un sujet pour les femmes actives en général et pour les sportives de haut niveau en particulier”. Si elle prend le temps de pouponner, Marie Riou est déjà investie dans The Famous Project d'Alexia Barrier, dont l'objectif est le Trophée Jules Verne en 2025 avec un équipage 100% féminin. Ce qui l'amène à se poser quelques questions : “Je me demande comment ça va être quand je vais laisser ma petite trois semaines, mais ce qui est sûr, c'est que j'ai vraiment envie de naviguer, j'ai encore plein d'envies.” Navigantes est animé par Hélène Cougoule et produit par Sailorz.Diffusé le 1er février 2023. Rediffusé le 5 août 2026Post production : Grégoire LevillainGénérique : All the summer girlsHébergé par Ausha.

Ils expliquent ensuite comment ils ont jeté leur dévolu sur leurs bateaux respectifs, l'ancien Fujicolor II (plan Irens de 1990) pour Damien Seguin, qui, alors qu'il était enfant, l'a vu arriver à Pointe-à-Pitre à la quatrième place de la Route du Rhum, avec Mike Birch à la barre, l'ex Sopra (plan Lombard de 2002) pour Eric Péron qui l'a déniché à… Chicago, attendant le dégel du lac Michigan pour le ramener à Brest.Les deux marins détaillent également le montage financier de leurs projets qu'ils comptent poursuivre au-delà de l'année 2026, avec un budget annuel de 500 000 euros pour Eric Péron, qui cherche un co-partenaire titre, d'un million pour Damien Seguin, soutenu par le Crédit Mutuel Arkea, dont une bonne partie consacrée au refit du bateau, qui sera mis à l'eau fin avril et retrouvera son port d'attache historique de La Trinité-sur-Mer.Ils poursuivent en évoquant le défi que représente une transat en solo sur ces Orma réputés très volages et leurs ambitions sportives, l'un comme l'autre ne cachant pas leur envie de se mesurer au scratch aux Ocean Fifty.Diffusé le 10 mars 2026Rediffusé le 4 août 2026Générique : Fast and wild/EdRecordsPost-production : Théo LevillainHébergé par Ausha.

Pour rythmer vos vacances, Into The Wind vous propose, du 31 juillet au 21 août, Un Été d'archis, soit la rediffusion de quatre épisodes dont les invités étaient des architectes navals ayant marqué l'histoire de la course au large. Des minis aux Ultim en passant par les Class40, Imoca, Ocean Fifty ou "one-off", ils nous racontent leur parcours et comment ils ont contribué à donner naissance à des bateaux de légende.--C'est une histoire de ministe - une de plus. Mais un ministe devenu architecte naval, qui collabore avec les équipes les plus prestigieuses de la discipline, du team Imoca Charal jusqu'à Alinghi Red Bull Racing. Tout en ayant appris son métier sur le tas. Cette histoire, c'est celle de Sam Manuard, qui a fait de l'éclectisme une quasi-discipline.Elle commence par un atavisme familial, qui a vu son grand-père et son père construire des bateaux - dans son jardin, pour le second, qui emmène, à la fin des années 1970, sa famille naviguer vers l'Afrique puis le Brésil. Le jeune Sam vit la voile d'abord comme un mode de vie, mais une fois étudiant, c'est la Mini Transat qui l'attire, et en particulier les objets fascinants que sont les Minis 6.50.A la fin des années 1990, il se lance dans son premier dessin, en pur autodidacte, et le construit dans la foulée, pour s'aligner sur sa première Mini Transat en 2001 qu'il finit 4e. C'est le début d'une passion pour la classe et ces bateaux qui dure encore, 20 ans plus tard. Au cours de ces années Mini, il démâte à 60 milles de l'arrivée, en tête de l'édition 2003 de la transat, voit l'un de ses plans l'emporter en 2005 aux mains de Corentin Douguet, fait connaissance avec Kristian Hajnsek et Andraz Mihelin, duo slovène qui l'emmènera loin...Son premier dessin hors Mini 6.50 est le Mach45, puis il enchaîne avec la Class40, révolutionnant le genre en 2010, avec le lancement du premier Mach40 - on en est à la version 5. Il finit 4e de la Route du Rhum en 2010 en Class40, gagne la Transat Jacques Vabre en Multi50 avec Yves Le Blevec en 2011, nourrissant en permanence son travail d'architecte de ses navigations en course.En 2018, Armel Tripon lui commande son premier Imoca, L'Occitane. Là aussi, un bateau radical qui tape dans l'œil des spécialistes : quelques jours avant le départ du Vendée Globe 2020, c'est le team Charal qui vient le chercher pour le prochain Imoca de Jérémie Beyou. Curieux, touche-à-tout et passionné de tous les bateaux, Sam Manuard a dessiné des skiffs, des classes A, un Mini de série en lin... et collabore avec Beneteau via ses amis slovènes de la Mini 2005 : son First 36 est Bateau européen de l'année ! Jusqu'aux Suisses d'Alinghi Red Bull, qui l'ont recruté pour la prochaine Coupe de l'America.Quand on écoute Sam Manuard parler travail, ce sont les mots "plaisir", "rencontre", "apprendre", "génial" qui reviennent souvent. Deux heures de conversation qui passent très vite ! Diffusé le 17 mars 2023Rediffusé le 31 juillet 2026Générique : In Closing – Days PastPost-production : Grégoire LevillainHébergé par Ausha.

⛵️ Parfois, les plus grands voyages nous ramènent là où tout a commencé.C'est sans doute ce qui m'a le plus marqué dans ma conversation avec François Gabart.On parle souvent de son Vendée Globe, de ses records ou de ses exploits en mer. Mais ce qui m'a frappé, c'est qu'au fond, tout est parti d'une traversée de l'Atlantique à l'âge de 6 ans, aux côtés de ses parents, pendant une année sabbatique en voilier.Des années plus tard, après avoir tout gagné ou presque, il a choisi de repartir. Cette fois avec sa propre famille.J'aime beaucoup cette idée que le succès ne nous éloigne pas forcément de nos racines. Qu'il peut, au contraire, nous donner envie de transmettre ce qui nous a construits.Alors qu'il est actuellement engagé dans un tour du monde familial qui le mènera jusqu'en 2028, je vous propose de redécouvrir cet échange.On y parle bien sûr de voile, mais surtout de liberté, de transmission, de courage et de cette envie de rester fidèle à ce qui nous anime profondément.Hébergé par Ausha.

The HPS Podcast - Conversations from History, Philosophy and Social Studies of Science

This week, Thomas Spiteri speaks with Dr. Magdalena Skipper, Editor-in-Chief of Nature. Skipper has held the role since 2018, and has a background in the genetic sciences. She is also notably the first female — and only the eighth person — to lead the journal since its founding in 1869.Skipper reflects on what she has worked to preserve and change since taking on the role, from deepening the connection between Nature's research and journalism teams to broadening the journal's scope beyond the natural sciences into engineering, social sciences, and clinical research. Drawing on her training as a geneticist, she discusses how evidence and rigor take different forms across disciplines, and why she sees no single "final word" in science.The conversation turns to some of the defining pressures on contemporary research culture: the COVID-19 pandemic's paradoxical effect on public trust in science, the discipline-specific nature of the replication crisis, and the rise of meta-science as a lens for understanding how research itself is produced. Skipper also discusses Nature's move toward transparent peer review, the persistent inequities shaping who gets published, and why she remains fundamentally hopeful about science's capacity for self-correction.In this episode, Skipper:Describes what she set out to preserve and change on becoming Nature's Editor-in-Chief, including expanding the journal's scope into engineering, social sciences, and clinical researchReflects on how her background in genetics shaped her thinking about evidence, rigor, and multiple valid paths to a scientific claimDiscusses the COVID-19 pandemic's dual legacy: accelerating the adoption of preprints while eroding public trust in scienceUnpacks the replication crisis as a discipline-specific phenomenon and what Nature has learned from itExplains the growing role of meta-science, particularly at the intersection of psychology, human behaviour, and research practiceDetails Nature's move to transparent and, since June 2025, mandatory published peer review reportsAddresses persistent inequities in scientific publishing and Nature's editorial efforts to counter "helicopter science"Shares why she remains hopeful about science's capacity for self-correction and its role in building a more equitable worldRelevant LinksNature JournalNature ProfileBegley & Ellis (2012), "Raise standards for preclinical cancer research" — Nature comment on reproducibility in cancer researchNature: Registered Reports formatNature : Transparent Peer Review initiativeNote: This conversation was recorded in October 2025.Thanks for listening to The HPS Podcast.

Tous les mercredis, du 29 juillet au 19 août, Navigantes vous propose Un été The Ocean Race, soit la rediffusion de quatre épisodes dont les invitées étaient des navigatrices qui, le 1er septembre, s'élanceront de New York à destination de Lorient pour la première édition de The Ocean Race Atlantic, répétition générale avec le départ en janvier de The Ocean Race monde. L'occasion de redécouvrir le parcours de femmes venues à la course au large via différents chemins.--A 35 ans, Mariana Lobato a une carrière déjà bien remplie, un emploi du temps réglé au cordeau, une vie de femme, de maman, de championne et désormais de navigatrice au large. Quand elle part en mer longtemps, comme ce fut le cas sur The Ocean Race à bord de Biotherm, la Portugaise prépare des colis pleins de petits cadeaux qui sont régulièrement distribués à ses deux enfants. “C'est ma façon à moi de garder le lien”, sourit celle dont le mari, Antonio Fontes, est lui aussi navigateur , ce qui les oblige à jongler avec leurs plannings respectifs.La native de Lisbonne a commencé la voile à 8 ans - Optimist, 420, 470 - avant de représenter son pays aux JO de Londres en 2012, en Elliot. “C'était fou, on n'avait pas d'argent, pas de bateau et on a réussi à se qualifier !” S'en suivent un titre de championne du monde de match-racing en 2013, des participations aux circuits GC32 et M32, avant la découverte du large, notamment auprès de Yoann Richomme, skipper du VO65 Mirpuri Foundation Racing Team, sur The Ocean Race Europe en 2021. Un déclic pour celle qui, un an et demi plus tard, est embarquée par Paul Meilhat pour son premier tour du monde, The Ocean Race.Celle que ce dernier qualifie de “grosse bosseuse, très rigoureuse et imperturbable”,  se réjouit de la présence grandissante des femmes en course au large et des opportunités qui leur sont offertes, au point qu'elle se verrait bien monter un duo 100% féminin pour la Transat Jacques Vabre 2025 ! En attendant, c'est avant le départ de l'édition 2023, courue auprès du même Paul Meilhat, qu'elle a accepté de se raconter, les deux skippers ayant par la suite dû abandonner, la grand-voile de Biotherm s'étant déchirée en début de course.Navigantes est animé par Hélène Cougoule et produit par SailorzDiffusé le 15 novembre 2023Rediffusé le 29 juillet 2026Post production :  Grégoire LevillainGénérique : All the summer girlsHébergé par Ausha.

Un rendez-vous hebdomadaire idéal pour patienter avant le grand départ de l'édition 2026 !__Ce 239e épisode de Pos. Report, désormais bimensuel, reçoit un skipper qui, s'il n'a pas été élu Marin de l'Année 2025 en décembre - trophée remis à Charlie Dalin -, peut se targuer d'avoir bouclé une saison exceptionnelle, marquée par quatre victoires majeures, le Tour de Bretagne en Figaro 3 avec Corentin Horeau en juin, le Fastnet overall avec Jean-Pierre Kelbert en juillet, la Solitaire du Figaro Paprec en septembre pour sa 19e participation et, pour finir en beauté, la Sydney Hobart, là encore overall, le dernier jour de l'année.C'est justement le match de cette classique australienne que nous refaisons avec le Cherbourgeois, qui revient d'abord sur ses cinq participations précédentes et explique comment il a accepté de disputer la 80e édition avec l'Australienne Jiang Lin, une navigatrice peu expérimentée, à bord du JPK 10.30 Min River.Il raconte ensuite une préparation réduite au strict minimum - quelques sorties à son atterrissage en Australie - et quels étaient les objectifs au moment du départ, le 26 décembre, le principal étant de bien figurer en IRC double. Un objectif qui a peu à peu évolué, notamment parce que la météo était favorable aux petits ratings, à savoir deux jours de près pour commencer et une dernière nuit dans du vent fort au portant dont n'ont pas bénéficié les plus gros bateaux.Reste que, au moment de couper la ligne d'arrivée en Tasmanie, le duo franco-australien, s'il était assuré de gagner en IRC 6, pensait terminer deuxième en IRC double et overall derrière le JPK 1080 BNC – my::NET / LEON du duo calédonien Michel Quintin/Yann Rigal. Ce dernier a finalement écopé d'une pénalité qui a permis à Min River de remporter la prestigieuse Tattersall Cup, “une fierté” pour Alexis Loison. D'autant qu'elle parachève donc une année remarquable dont le sommet, pour lui, restera sa victoire sur la Solitaire du Figaro Paprec.Nous finissons cet épisode en évoquant l'avenir, qui passera pour le Normand par la Class40, avec un bateau actuellement en construction et un objectif : la Route du Rhum-Destination Guadeloupe, qu'il courra pour la première fois, à 42 ans.Diffusé le 13 janvier 2026Rediffusé le 28 juillet 2026Générique : Fast and wild/EdRecordsPost-production : Grégoire LevillainHébergé par Ausha.

On l'avait laissé voilà plus de 4 ans, après trois épisodes fleuve où Thomas Coville s'était livré en longueur ; on le retrouve pour un quatrième épisode, qui aurait pu ressembler au début d'une tournée d'adieu après un Trophée Jules Verne victorieux cet hiver. C'est mal connaître le skipper de Sodebo. À 58 ans, après près de trois décennies sous les couleurs de son sponsor et à l'aube de sa... huitième Route du Rhum, Thomas Coville a toujours faim. Depuis 2022, chaque course, chaque chantier et chaque remise en question nourrissent une ambition intacte : continuer à progresser.Dans cet épisode, il raconte comment l'Arkéa Ultim Challenge, début 2024, a agi comme un révélateur. Deuxième à l'arrivée, il comprend pourtant qu'il n'est pas satisfait. Cette frustration devient le point de départ d'une profonde transformation, autant personnelle que collective. Une évolution qui passe d'abord par lui-même. Avec l'aide d'un préparateur mental, il apprend à sortir des montagnes russes émotionnelles qui ont longtemps rythmé sa carrière. Plus question de fonctionner dans l'exaltation ou la déception permanente : place à une recherche d'équilibre. Il découvre aussi une nouvelle manière de piloter un projet sportif, fondée sur la planification à long terme, l'anticipation et la construction d'une dynamique qui dépasse chaque course.Le changement touche également l'équipe Sodebo. Coville raconte sans détour comment il a accepté d'être bousculé par une nouvelle génération, incarnée notamment par Benjamin Schwartz. Leur rencontre modifie profondément sa façon de travailler. Les données, la méthode et l'analyse prennent une place centrale. L'ancien leader apprend à partager davantage les responsabilités, jusqu'à faire évoluer son propre rôle au sein du collectif. Une remise en question qu'il considère aujourd'hui comme la plus importante de sa carrière.Cette transformation trouve son aboutissement lors du Trophée Jules Verne Derrière le record, Coville retient surtout la réussite humaine d'un équipage où chacun trouve sa place. Plus encore que la performance chronométrique, il célèbre une aventure collective construite au fil de plusieurs années, malgré les échecs, les avaries et les tentatives inabouties.À l'approche de la Route du Rhum 2026, Thomas Coville ne parle ni de revanche ni de dernière chance. Il décrit un bateau profondément optimisé, une équipe plus structurée et un projet pensé sur plusieurs années. Son objectif dépasse désormais les résultats immédiats : faire grandir les femmes et les hommes qui l'entourent, préparer l'avenir de Sodebo Voile et démontrer qu'il est encore possible, la soixantaine approchant, de continuer à évoluer autant que de gagner.Diffusé le 24 juillet 2026Générique : In Closing – Days PastRéalisation : Eloi Stichelbaut et Guillaue Le Corre/PolaryseHébergé par Ausha.

À certains moments d'une carrière, continuer ne suffit plus. Après quinze ans en IMOCA, trois Vendée Globe et une longue histoire bâtie avec Bureau Vallée, Louis Burton a choisi de repartir presque de zéro en Ultim, lui qui n'a presque aucune expérience en multicoque. Une autre vitesse, une autre culture, une autre manière de naviguer, et la signature d'un marin qui trace depuis ses débuts sa propre route.Cette capacité à rebondir ne date pas d'hier. Rien, dans son parcours, ne le destinait à la course au large professionnelle. Né loin des ports, il découvre la voile enfant en Bretagne, restaure ses premiers bateaux pendant ses études, enchaîne les régates avec les moyens du bord avant de saisir l'opportunité de la Route du Rhum 2010. En quelques années, il passe des courses en flotte en IRC aux pontons du Vendée Globe, porté par une énergie qui compense souvent le manque d'expérience.Au fil des campagnes, Burton construit une méthode. Derrière le skipper se cache un entrepreneur qui refuse d'opposer performance sportive et développement économique. Monter des projets, fidéliser des partenaires, construire une équipe et anticiper les cycles de quatre ans deviennent des leviers aussi importants que les choix météorologiques ou les réglages du bateau. Une approche qui lui permet de s'installer durablement parmi les références de l'IMOCA, jusqu'à finir sur le podium du Vendée Globe 2021.Le projet Armand Thiery s'inscrit dans cette continuité. Plutôt que de rechercher un simple remplaçant à son sponsor historique, Louis Burton imagine un programme sur une décennie, articulé autour d'un Ultim - l'ancien Macif de François Gabart - capable d'évoluer progressivement et d'attirer un club d'entreprises. L'objectif n'est pas de gagner immédiatement, mais de bâtir les conditions de la réussite sur le long terme.L'historie du Malouin d'adoption raconte moins une succession de résultats qu'une façon d'avancer. Transformer les périodes d'incertitude en opportunités, accepter de repartir d'une feuille presque blanche et conserver intact le plaisir d'aller sur l'eau : c'est cette logique qui relie ses premiers bords à L'Île-aux-Moines, ses Vendée Globe et désormais son entrée dans l'univers des géants volants.Diffusé le 10 juillet 2026Générique : In Closing – Days PastPost-production : Théo LevillainHébergé par Ausha.

Last night's School Committee meeting kicked off with some key updates from Superintendent Skipper. She started off by breaking down the district's plan to cut around 568 positions. She explained this is a direct response to losing roughly 3,000 students over the last two years, though she promised a steady 10-to-1 student-to-teacher ratio would remain. The Superintendent also touched on summer programming across the district, including the statistic that thousands of students are enrolled in credit recovery, which she framed as a positive sign for students, even though this would mean that more students are failing courses. Skipper also announced that Boston is joining the massive nationwide lawsuit targeting tech giants like Meta, TikTok, and other corporations for harming kids' mental health through social media. During public comment, the only two speakers of the night called out the district for withholding promised exam school outcome data and demanding clear, measurable goals to track student success. Later on, the Committee conducted a marathon voting session, voting on and approving 19 items! These include collective bargaining agreements, grants, private school applications, evaluations, and appointments.    The district's changing infrastructure and facilities footprint dominated the rest of the night. Chief of Capital Planning, Delavern Stanislaus, noted that the district aims to downsize from its original 114 schools to an even 100 by the end of the 2026–2027 school year, with a final target of 95 schools by 2030. While the Committee formally voted on and approved the Superintendent's evaluation for the past year, we decided to conduct our own evaluation of the evaluation using available data. Relying on key data points, we wanted to offer further context regarding the progress, or lack thereof, throughout the district.    Learn more about your ad choices.

Story Transcript:Da: Solen stod højt over den gamle kostskole, og den varme sommerluft sitrede i haven.En: The sun stood high over the old boarding school, and the warm summer air shimmered in the garden.Da: Skolens talentkonkurrence var i fuld gang.En: The school's talent show was in full swing.Da: Eleverne jublede, mens de så deres klassekammerater optræde på scenen.En: The students cheered as they watched their classmates perform on stage.Da: Men Nikolaj kunne ikke koncentrere sig om showet.En: But Nikolaj couldn't concentrate on the show.Da: Den kærlige, men distraherende kanin, Skipper, var hans ansvar.En: The loving, yet distracting rabbit, Skipper, was his responsibility.Da: Skipper var skolens maskot, som eleverne elskede, men som også kunne være en udfordring.En: Skipper was the school's mascot, beloved by the students but also a challenge.Da: Nikolaj havde lovet at passe ekstra godt på ham under showet, for at undgå at den strenge rektor, rektor Hansen, blev sur.En: Nikolaj had promised to take extra good care of him during the show to avoid the wrath of the strict headmaster, Rektor Hansen.Da: Pludselig, midt i et storslået dansenummer, satte Nikolaj sig op.En: Suddenly, in the middle of a grand dance number, Nikolaj sat up.Da: Skippers bur så tomt ud.En: Skipper's cage looked empty.Da: Nikolaj mærkede panikken prikke.En: Nikolaj felt a prickle of panic.Da: "Skipper!"En: "Skipper!"Da: udbrød han lavmælt og sprang op fra sin plads.En: he exclaimed quietly and jumped up from his seat.Da: Sofie, der sad ved siden af, bemærkede hans rysten og satte hurtigt to og to sammen.En: Sofie, who was sitting next to him, noticed his trembling and quickly put two and two together.Da: Hun så den åbne låge af Skippers bur og rullede med øjnene.En: She saw the open latch of Skipper's cage and rolled her eyes.Da: "Nikolaj, du glemte at sikre lågen igen, ikke?"En: "Nikolaj, you forgot to secure the latch again, didn't you?"Da: spurgte hun, mens hun rejste sig.En: she asked, as she stood up.Da: "Åh nej, han forsvandt!"En: "Oh no, he's gone!"Da: Nikolaj så fortvivlet på hende.En: Nikolaj looked at her in despair.Da: "Det er okay.En: "It's okay.Da: Vi finder ham," forsikrede Sofie hurtigt.En: We'll find him," Sofie reassured quickly.Da: Hun havde en plan.En: She had a plan.Da: De sneg sig væk fra showet og begyndte at lede hele skolen igennem.En: They sneaked away from the show and began searching the entire school.Da: Lyden af deres klassekammeraters latter og applaus kunne høres i baggrunden.En: The sound of their classmates' laughter and applause could be heard in the background.Da: De fulgte en lille sti af gulerodsstykker.En: They followed a small trail of carrot pieces.Da: Skipper havde åbenbart haft sig en fest på skolens bekostning.En: Skipper had apparently been having a feast at the school's expense.Da: Dette førte dem til skolens drivhus, et smukt, grønt sted med blomster og grøntsager.En: This led them to the school's greenhouse, a beautiful, green place with flowers and vegetables.Da: Nikolajs hjerte bankede højt.En: Nikolaj's heart was pounding loudly.Da: De vidste, at tiden var knap.En: They knew time was of the essence.Da: "Sofie, vi skal være hurtige!En: "Sofie, we need to be quick!Da: Hvis de ikke fanger ham, er vi nødt til det," sagde Nikolaj bestemt.En: If they don't catch him, we have to," Nikolaj said decisively.Da: Sofie nikkede.En: Sofie nodded.Da: De fik øje på Skipper, der hoppede glad rundt blandt tomatplanterne.En: They spotted Skipper hopping happily among the tomato plants.Da: Nikolaj holdt en gulerod i hånden, håbede, at Skipper var sulten.En: Nikolaj held a carrot in his hand, hoping Skipper was hungry.Da: Langsomt nærmede de sig, mens Nikolaj forsøgte ikke at lave nogen pludselige bevægelser.En: Slowly, they approached, as Nikolaj tried not to make any sudden movements.Da: "Kom nu, Skipper," hviskede han insisterende.En: "Come on, Skipper," he whispered insistently.Da: Skipper snusede til guleroden og nærmede sig Nikolaj.En: Skipper sniffed the carrot and moved toward Nikolaj.Da: På det rette øjeblik greb Sofie kaninen og holdt den tæt.En: At the right moment, Sofie grabbed the rabbit and held it close.Da: "Vi har ham!"En: "We got him!"Da: udbrød hun lettet.En: she exclaimed in relief.Da: Tiden var ikke på deres side.En: Time was not on their side.Da: De hørte lærerens stemmer nærme sig.En: They heard the teachers' voices approaching.Da: Hurtigt og lydløst smuttede de begge ud af drivhuset og hen mod buret uden at gøre væsen af sig.En: Quickly and silently, they slipped out of the greenhouse and towards the cage without making a fuss.Da: De gik tilbage til pladsen lige i tide til det afsluttende klapsalver.En: They returned to their seats just in time for the concluding applause.Da: Da rektor Hansen gik forbi, anede han intet om nogen kaninflugt.En: As Rektor Hansen walked by, he was unaware of any rabbit escape.Da: Nikolaj og Sofie udvekslede tilfredse smil.En: Nikolaj and Sofie exchanged satisfied smiles.Da: Da de gjorde klar til at nyde skolens fest, trådte rektor Hansen tilfældigt på noget usædvanligt.En: As they prepared to enjoy the school's celebration, Rektor Hansen accidentally stepped on something unusual.Da: Et spor af små kaninspor i muldet jord.En: A trail of tiny rabbit tracks in the soil.Da: Han så sig om og trak på skuldrene, men Nikolaj og Sofie vidste, hvad det betød.En: He looked around and shrugged, but Nikolaj and Sofie knew what it meant.Da: "Det ser ud til, at Skipper gemmer på endnu flere hemmeligheder," sagde Sofie grinende.En: "It looks like Skipper has more secrets to keep," said Sofie with a laugh.Da: Nikolaj lo lettet.En: Nikolaj laughed with relief.Da: Han havde lært en vigtig lektie.En: He had learned an important lesson.Da: Som timerne gled ind i natten, vidste han, at han altid kunne regne med Sofie, og hun vidste, at Nikolajs kærlighed til dyrene betød alt.En: As the hours slipped into night, he knew he could always count on Sofie, and she knew that Nikolaj's love for animals meant everything.Da: Sammen ville de altid kunne klare det.En: Together, they would always be able to handle it.

Depuis ses premiers bords en croisière avec son père jusqu'aux tours du monde en solitaire et en équipage, Sébastien Simon a construit son parcours sans jamais emprunter la voie la plus évidente. Arrivé tard dans la compétition, étudiant en école d'ingénieur sur le circuit Figaro, le Sablais avance par étapes, sans suivre les parcours balisés. Une trajectoire singulière, guidée par une exigence constante et une volonté de toujours repousser ses propres limites.La victoire sur la Solitaire du Figaro en 2018 lui ouvre les portes de l'IMOCA, mais les années suivantes sont loin d'être un long fleuve tranquille. Premier projet marqué par les avaries, abandon sur le Vendée Globe 2020, recherche d'un nouveau partenaire, reconstruction autour du Groupe Dubreuil, participation à The Ocean Race : il revient sans détour sur les moments où tout aurait pu s'arrêter, et sur les rencontres qui lui ont permis de rebondir.Il raconte également en détail l'un des épisodes les plus marquants de sa carrière : son grave accident lors de Retour à la Base, en 2023. Blessure à la tête, fracture cervicale, démâtage à quelques milles de l'arrivée, qualification arrachée malgré les douleurs... Un enchaînement d'événements qui aurait pu tout remettre en cause, mais qui renforce au contraire sa détermination et transforme durablement son approche de la navigation.Au fil de son parcours se dessine le portrait d'un marin qui préfère tracer sa propre route plutôt que suivre les itinéraires établis. Écarté des filières classiques, adepte des choix assumés, parfois à contre-courant, Sébastien Simon revendique une manière très personnelle d'aborder la compétition. Cette indépendance se retrouve aussi bien dans ses choix de carrière que dans sa manière de concevoir ses projets et de prendre ses décisions en mer.À travers ce récit se dessine le portrait d'un compétiteur qui ne se satisfait jamais de ses succès. Chaque objectif atteint ouvre immédiatement le suivant, chaque échec nourrit la suite. Une ambition assumée, forgée par les expériences autant que par les résultats, et tournée vers un cap qui guide chacune de ses décisions : remporter un jour le Vendée Globe.Hébergé par Ausha.

Defense jumps routes and takes the ball The Detroit Lions defense seized Day 1 in Allen Park. The first seven-on-seven snap set the tone. Jared Goff tried a short out to Amon-Ra St. Brown. DJ Reed broke it up and put it on the turf. The coverage locked in from there. Reader stayed hip-to-hip on a vertical the next rep and later picked off Teddy Bridgewater by beating the throw to the sideline. Chuck Clark, playing deep middle with Kirby out and Branch sidelined, tracked an overthrown ball from Goff and intercepted it. Undrafted rookie Amaris Brown undercut Luke Altmaier on a Texas route to Jabari Small and ripped the ball away, then sprinted the other direction. Khalil Dorsey and Loren Strickland each dropped would-be interceptions. Trevor Nowaski erased a Bridgewater throw with a full-extension pass breakup. Clark said the defensive backs met to study recent practice film and route concepts. He credited DJ Reed for organizing it. The emphasis was clear: take the ball and do something with it after the catch. Offense snapshots: Jamo, Gibbs, and Meeks at tight end Jameson Williams had a teachable sequence. He dropped a low throw on the move, asked for the same ball, then snatched it out front in stride on the next rep. St. Brown had a mixed day against tight coverage. Greg Corrao flashed rare stop-start quickness and clean hands. His instant change of direction stood out. Jackson Meeks lined up only at tight end and took the No. 2 reps with Sam LaPorta not participating and Tyler Conklin not seen in uniform. Meeks is lighter than Isaac Teslaw but tracked the ball well and finished. Position drills forced receivers to find the ball over the shoulder; Corrao and Meeks handled it smoothly. Jameer Gibbs reminded everyone about NFL speed. He caught a swing, planted, and outran the angle. The burst was startling up close. Fights, fixes, and the trenches A dust-up broke out between Anthony Lucas and Davis Cochran. Ennis Rakestraw stepped in as peacemaker. They went at it again on the next rep before assistant coach Dan Skipper ended it quickly. Earlier, OL coach Hank Fraley joked that Skipper has to remember he can't fight anymore. The sideline timing was perfect. Second-team offensive line notes: Larry Borom at left tackle, Juice Scruggs at left guard, and Seth McLaughlin at center. Tate Ratledge volunteered snaps during a running back drill and looked natural in a pinch. Lacy saw first-team defensive end work opposite Aidan Hutchinson ahead of Martin Turner. Quarterbacks and the red zone hoop Goff, Bridgewater, and Altmaier struggled early on a red zone hoop drill meant to simulate high-point fades. All three missed their first two tries. QB coach Mark Brunell stepped in, demonstrated, and reset the group. Goff then drilled two. Bridgewater hit one of two. Altmaier rattled the rim twice but showed quick correction. Roger McCreery had a rough day carrying crossers and drags. Joe Bachie spiked an Altmaier checkdown with a smart read and well-timed jump. Day 1 of minicamp belonged to the Detroit Lions defensive backs. Day 2 awaits. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #lionsminicamp #gregdortch #djreed #trevornowaske #chuckclark #jamesonwilliams #jahmyrgibbs #jaredgoff #markbrunell Learn more about your ad choices.

Quatre décennies plus tard, Lionel Péan reste le premier Français à avoir remporté - à 29 ans - la Whitbread, le tour du monde en équipage aujourd'hui connu sous le nom d'The Ocean Race. Pourtant, réduire le skipper de L'Esprit d'Equipe à cette victoire historique de 1986 serait passer à côté de l'essentiel. Derrière le palmarès se dessine le parcours d'un marin qui, très tôt, a fait le choix de construire sa propre route, loin des certitudes établies et des effets de mode.Tout commence à La Rochelle dans les années 1970 : formé auprès de figures majeures comme Bertrand Chéret ou Philippe Harlé, il quitte le foyer familial à seulement quinze ans pour traverser l'Atlantique. Cette décision fondatrice nourrit une conviction qui ne le quittera jamais : la voile est autant une aventure humaine qu'un exercice de méthode. De la campagne olympique en Soling à la Mini-Transat, puis à la victoire dans la Solitaire du Figaro en 1983, Péan affine une approche où la préparation compte davantage que l'inspiration du moment.La genèse de L'Esprit d'Équipe illustre parfaitement cette philosophie. Alors que la plupart des projets misent sur la puissance des maxi-yachts, il choisit un bateau plus modeste, optimise chaque détail et constitue un équipage recruté moins pour son prestige que pour son adhésion au projet collectif. Analyse du rating, gestion rigoureuse, préparation physique, culture de groupe : bien avant que ces notions ne deviennent la norme, Lionel Péan les place au cœur de sa stratégieLa victoire dans la Whitbread 1985-1986 ouvre un nouveau chapitre. Après la Solitaire du Figaro et le tour du monde, Lionel Péan multiplie les projets : Route du Rhum, Sydney-Hobart, Transat AG2R, records océaniques ou encore campagnes internationales en Maxi ou sur des super yachts et des projets pro-am comme le VO70 SFS.Quarante ans après sa victoire autour du monde, Lionel Péan, 69 ans, reste actif dans le monde maritime. Après une carrière marquée par la compétition et la gestion de projets complexes, il développe aujourd'hui Seafloatech, une entreprise spécialisée dans les solutions de mouillages écologiques. Du jeune navigateur parti traverser l'Atlantique à quinze ans à l'entrepreneur d'aujourd'hui, son parcours traverse un demi-siècle d'histoire nautique.Hébergé par Ausha.
