Podcasts about Snowdon

Send us your Mediocre 5 Star ReviewThis week, Ade and Tim dive into the planning stage of their upcoming micro adventure — a simple but brilliant idea that's been bubbling away for a while. The plan is wonderfully straightforward: finish work one evening, jump in the car, head straight to Mount Snowdon, climb it in the dark, camp on the summit, and wake up ready to cook breakfast as the sun rises over the mountains.In this first part, they talk through how the idea came about, how they'll time the journey and the night ascent, and what they'll need to take with them to make the whole thing safe, fun, and just chaotic enough to feel like a proper adventure. There's plenty of gear chat, a bit of route pondering, and the usual mix of enthusiasm, questionable logic, and the kind of silliness that always seems to appear when these two start planning something mildly ridiculous.It's the build‑up, the excitement, and the anticipation — all the ingredients that make a micro adventure feel real before it's even begun.DISCLAIMER: Casual Camping Podcast accepts no liability and does not officially recommend any products or endorse any techniques discussed in an individual podcast episode or shown on Casual Camping Podcast social media accounts.

Die Hochzeit von Antony Armstrong-Jones mit Prinzessin Margaret, der jüngeren Schwester von Königin Elizabeth II., sorgte 1960 für helle Aufregung.

Alan and Ian are back behind the mic with a packed episode that hops from European travel chaos to OCR race drama and everything in between. They kick things off with tales from Montenegro, including Alan's encounter with siren‑blaring paramedics on electric bikes at the One Run race. From there, it's a deep dive into Eurochamps and obstacle designs, comparing Spain's grip‑heavy rigs to the UK's fast‑flowing courses — all while sipping Swedish cider and fermented apple juice. The pair stay with the Euro Championships, dissecting safety lessons from a rope‑snap incident, before spotlighting standout performances from the UK Athetes, whose rig skills continue to dominate the UK OCR scene. They also chat job openings at Wild Forest, Tough Mudder, and Spartan, crunching the numbers on volunteer pay versus perks, and unpack the latest contender status confusion ahead of WTM 2026 — including Alan's pit plans with Little Big Scotland and a mysterious  puzzle reveal. Finally, they tackle Deadly Dozen's crowdfunding push, Hyrox's luxury cruise, and a few eyebrow‑raising stories from the running world — from charity hikers booed on Snowdon to marathon break‑up signs in Traverse City. It's classic Swift Half: travel tales, race talk, and plenty of laughs over a pint (or a cider).   Watch this episode live on Youtube at UKOCR TV https://www.youtube.com/@UKOCR  If you have any questions about the show or would like to explore advertising opportunities, feel free to reach out to us at admin@ukocr.com.

This is the final episode of the series and it is one that I originally recorded for the F Word at Work podcast, but I am so glad it is finding its home here. As we head into summer and those of you in education start to think about fitting treatment around the school calendar, I wanted to make sure this conversation reached you.I am joined by Caroline Biddle and Devon-Louise Oakley-Hogg, both teachers, both with their own lived experience of fertility treatment, and both co-founders of One Full Round: a campaign to bring fair, funded fertility leave to schools across the UK. Together they have developed a free model policy that any school can adopt, which has already been taken on by the Avanti Schools Trust, making it the first multi-academy trust in the country to offer full paid fertility treatment leave.Devon's story is particularly raw and honest. She stopped treatment two years ago at the age of 30, having spent £25,000 and gone through three rounds of egg collection without success. She talks about what it felt like to get devastating embryology phone calls at break time and then walk straight back into a Year 11 classroom. Caroline's story ended with a successful outcome, but the decade it took to get there, including having her pay docked when appointment letters started saying 'fertility' instead of 'gynae', shaped everything that One Full Round is now trying to change.Content note: This episode includes discussion of male factor infertility, azoospermia, failed IVF cycles, embryo loss and the decision to stop treatment.What we discuss in this episode:Caroline's experience of having her pay cut mid-treatment when appointment letters changed from 'gynaecological' to 'fertility' and the headteacher's response when she raised itWhy the line manager relationship in schools works differently: it is the headteacher, not the line manager, who has the final sayDevon's fertility journey: her husband's azoospermia diagnosis, three rounds of egg collection, £25,000 spent, and the decision to stop treatment at 30The phone calls from the embryologist at break time, and having to walk into a Year 11 class immediately afterWhy Devon says she does not yet feel ready to consider parenthood because she has not yet got back to who she was before treatmentThe guilt that comes from being a teacher going through fertility treatment: letting down your classes, taking sick leave, going in ill after egg collectionWhat Caroline's 2022 survey of more than 120 teachers found: guilt was one of the most recurring themes in over 3,200 words of open commentsWhy a written fertility policy matters even in schools that 'already let everyone go to appointments'What the One Full Round model policy actually covers: one full round of treatment from investigations to embryo transfer, paid leave, partner leave, and provisions for a cancelled cycleHow Avanti Schools Trust became the first trust in the country to adopt the policy, offering six weeks of full paid fertility leaveWhy some schools resist the policy and why they are short-sighted to do soThe recruitment and retention crisis in teaching and why 9,000 women left between the ages of 30 and 39 in a single yearGen Z teachers checking for fertility and wellbeing policies before accepting jobsOne Full Round's ambassador programme: free training, resources and templates for teachers who want to take the policy to their schoolDevon's PhD in student misogyny towards teachers and how it connects to the wider pictureThe Keeping Women in Teaching conference and the issues it set out to address: menstruation, misogyny, menopause and infertilityCaroline's PhD research into line managers and the support they offer women going through fertility treatmentFertility Matters at Work and why the workplace fertility conversation has shifted significantly in the last decadeAlso mentioned in this episodeFollow One Full Round @onefullround Fertility Matters at Work: fertilitymattersatwork.comAm I Overreacting?

This episode is a gentle one. It is about grief, about the body, about what happens when the path you imagined does not unfold the way you hoped, and about where you can find peace when words are not enough.I am joined by Ellen Mary Webster, horticulturalist, floral designer, author and host of the award-winning Plant Based Podcast. Ellen navigated a decade-long fertility journey that included a near-fatal ruptured ectopic pregnancy, a diagnosis of severe endometriosis, three rounds of IVF and ultimately a hysterectomy in her early 30s. Throughout all of it, she turned to her garden. And in this conversation she explains why that was not just a coping mechanism but a genuine form of healing.Whether you have a large garden, a windowsill, a balcony or just a park nearby, this episode will make you want to go outside.Content note: This episode includes discussion of ectopic pregnancy, pregnancy loss, endometriosis, IVF, hysterectomy and involuntary childlessness.What we discuss in this episode:Ellen's decade-long fertility journey: from ectopic pregnancy to endometriosis diagnosis to IVF to hysterectomyThe ruptured ectopic pregnancy that nearly cost Ellen her life and the eight hours of dismissal that preceded emergency surgeryThe health anxiety that stayed long after the physical recoveryWhy gardening became Ellen's constant throughout all of it, from the very first loss to the weeks recovering from a hysterectomyWhat it means to garden for process rather than outcome and why that mindset maps directly onto a fertility journeyThe science behind soil: why getting your hands in the dirt genuinely affects your brain chemistryWhy just seeing a flower can momentarily shift your mental state even when you are in deep griefForest bathing: what it actually is, what the Japanese have known for centuries, and how 40 minutes among trees can reduce anxiety and increase natural killer cellsHow to do forest bathing on your own and why walking slowly with intention is where to startWhat Ellen did during the five weeks she could not garden after her hysterectomy and what sitting still in her garden taught herThe anger and the unfairness of watching friends fall pregnant and how Ellen processed that over timeWhy you do not need to be a gardener for nature to help you: one plant, a garden centre coffee and a short walk all countThe fertility journey and what it taught Ellen about the miracle of lifeEllen's wellness retreats, forest bathing sessions and what a day or weekend immersed in nature can offerEllen's invitation to anyone who feels like this will not work for themWe are not separate from nature. We are part of it. And we have just become so far detached from it that we have forgotten that going outside, even briefly, even reluctantly, is going to make you feel a little better. Start with one plant. Go to the garden centre. Get a coffee and a piece of cake. Buy the one plant you like and try to nurture it. That is enough.About Ellen Mary WebsterEllen Mary Webster is a horticulturalist, floral designer, author and wellness retreat host. She is the author of The Joy of Gardening and How to Grow a Garden, and the host of the award-winning Plant Based Podcast. She splits her time between Norfolk in the UK and the United States, lives a plant-based life and runs nature immersion and forest bathing wellness retreats.Follow Ellen Mary on Instagram: @ellenmaryGardeningThe Plant Based Podcast: theplantbasedpodcast.comA note on Fertility Network UKAt the start of this episode I shared some difficult news: Fertility Network UK, one of the longest-standing patient support charities in the UK, has announced a managed closure.

One year in. And what a year it has been.In this episode I am joined by Katie Rollings, founder of Fertility Action, to mark the charity's first birthday. We talk about everything from the support groups that have quietly changed people's lives, to the campaign work happening at the highest levels of government, to what Katie believes the next big push needs to be: a national fertility strategy.This is a conversation full of hope.

If you have Endometriosis, you will know that the pain and fatigue can feel relentless. In our episode last week, we discussed consideration around egg freezing and IVF for Endo Warriors with Dr Shirin Khanjani. This week, we're bringing it right down to what you're eating day to day as the right approach to food can make a real difference to how your body manages inflammation, metabolises hormones and supports you through the difficult days.In this episode I am joined by Jane Aherne, a Registered Nutritionist with an MSc in Nutrition from the University of Westminster. Jane specialises in fertility, reproductive conditions and chronic inflammation, and has worked with women dealing with endometriosis and PCOS across functional medicine environments including IVF Matters and TIC Health. This is not about a restrictive diet or a long list of rules. It is about understanding why certain foods make your symptoms worse, why others help, and how to make small, sustainable changes that your body will actually thank you for.What we discuss in this episode:Why Endometriosis and chronic inflammation are so closely linkedThe difference between pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory foods and why it mattersWhy Omega 3 is Jane's first recommendation for almost every client with endoThe best food sources of Omega 3 and what to do if you are vegan or do not eat fishThe role of the Mediterranean diet in reducing inflammationWhy trans fats, ultra-processed foods and alcohol can actively worsen symptomsHow gut health and liver function affect the way your body processes oestrogenThe blood sugar spike and crash cycle: why it matters so much in an inflammatory environmentHow constant blood sugar spikes can drive insulin resistance and compound existing inflammationWhy comfort eating during flare ups can actually make things worse and what to do insteadPractical swaps: dates, nuts, seeds, high protein meals and how to make them work in real lifeWhy how you eat can be just as important as what you eatMindful eating, stress and the rest-and-digest responsePlanning and preparation for shift workers and people on the goBalancing oestrogen naturally through fibre, cruciferous vegetables and liver-supporting foodsHow soon you can expect to feel the benefits of dietary changesWhy there is no single perfect diet for endometriosis and what personalisation actually looks likeThe biggest misconception Jane wants to set the record straight onJane's one piece of advice if you can only do one thingJane's five small changes to start this weekAdd two portions of oily fish (salmon, sardines, mackerel) or a quality Omega 3 supplementIncrease fibre gradually through whole grains, fruits, vegetables and legumesInclude more cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower and kale for oestrogen metabolismSwap high-sugar snacks for a date with a Brazil nut or a handful of mixed nuts and seedsSit down for meals away from screens and allow your body to move into rest-and-digest mode Jane on InstaThis episode is sponsored by Wild NutritionI know how overwhelming it can be figuring out which supplements actually make sense for your body, especially when you are already managing a condition like endometriosis.

If you have endometriosis and you're thinking about your fertility, this is one of those conversations I really want you to hear.In this episode, I sat down with Dr. Shirin Khanjani, Consultant Gynaecologist and accredited subspecialist in reproductive medicine and surgery, to properly unpack what's actually going on when endometriosis and fertility collide.This chat comes off the back of the government's Renewed Women's Health Strategy, which has once again highlighted just how many women are still being dismissed, delayed, or left without answers. And when it comes to endometriosis, the reality is still pretty shocking. On average, it takes seven to eight years to get a diagnosis.So this episode is about what happens next. Once you finally have that diagnosis, what do you actually need to know?We talk through everything, from how surgery can affect your egg reserve, to why IVF isn't a one-size-fits-all approach for endometriosis patients, to the emotional weight of trying to navigate all of this at the same time.What we cover in this episodeWhy endometriosis has been one of the biggest gaps in women's health and how that is slowly starting to shift The many different ways endometriosis can show up, from period pain to IBS, fatigue, back pain and infertility Why diagnosis still takes years and what you can do to advocate for yourself What to ask for at GP level and how to push for proper investigations The nuance around surgery and when it can help fertility or potentially reduce egg reserve What happens to ovarian reserve when chocolate cysts are removed Why fertility preservation, like egg or embryo freezing, should be considered before surgery in some cases How endometriosis changes IVF protocols and why specialist care matters The impact of fluid-filled tubes on implantation and when surgery becomes necessary The emotional and psychological toll of managing endometriosis alongside fertility treatment Why continuity of care makes such a difference to outcomes Common misconceptions around natural conception with endometriosis Why waiting too long without investigation can cost valuable reproductive time The impact of endometriosis in the workplace and why awareness still matters Why endometriosis and IVF is not one-size-fits-allOne of the biggest takeaways from this conversation is that standard IVF pathways don't always apply if you have endometriosis.Dr. Khanjani explains that specialist protocols often need to include:Managing oestrogen levels carefully during stimulation Navigating more complex egg collections due to scar tissue or cysts Using antibiotics during egg collection to reduce inflammation risk Supporting the body after collection to keep endometriosis under control Her advice is simple but important. When you walk into a clinic, ask directly if they have specific protocols for endometriosis patients. If they don't, that tells you something.Misconceptions we really need to clear upThere are a few things Dr. Khanjani is very clear on:You can still fall pregnant naturally with endometriosis. The chances may be lower, but it's not impossible Egg quality is not automatically worse. IVF outcomes can be comparable once eggs are retrieved Surgery is not always the first step. In some cases, it can delay treatment or reduce egg reserve Being told to “just keep trying” without investigation can waste valuable time There isn't one perfect pathway.

What does it feel like to reach the end of your fertility journey , not with the family you imagined, but with the one you have? In this episode, host Natalie Silverman sits down with patient advocate, writer, and blogger Seetal Savla for an honest, moving conversation about secondary infertility, the decision to stop treatment, and the complicated emotions that don't simply disappear after a hard-won pregnancy.Seetal spent six years trying to conceive, went through five rounds of unsuccessful IVF (including one with a donor), experienced multiple losses, and eventually conceived her daughter naturally. Now living in Berlin, she and her husband have made the deeply personal decision not to pursue further treatment , and she speaks candidly about what that letting go actually looks and feels like.This is also a conversation for those of you who are still on the journey. Because the feelings Seetal describes , the sting of pregnancy announcements, the guilt, the grief for the family you thought you'd have , are feelings many of you will recognise wherever you are right now.Trigger warning: This episode includes discussion of pregnancy loss, pregnancy after loss, and the emotional impact of making the decision to stop fertility treatment.What we discuss in this episode:Secondary infertility and what it means when there's no clear diagnosisThe decision to stop treatment , and the grief and relief that can come with itHow to navigate the sting of pregnancy announcements, even as a parentAllowing yourself to feel the 'negative' emotions: sadness, jealousy, resentmentSeetal's two-part answer to the question: 'Do you want another baby?'Donating remaining embryos , and the complicated emotions around thatThe language we use: why 'only child' and 'one and done' don't always fitHow to handle intrusive questions, especially within South Asian communitiesForewarnng friends and family about pregnancy announcements , what actually helpsWhen fertility friendships shift or break downSeetal's in-person support group for South Asian women in BerlinThe power of lived experience communities , and why you don't have to speak to belongSeetal's 13-part Ferring video diary series documenting her final cycle through to motherhoodAbout Seetal SavlaSeetal is a patient advocate, writer, and blogger who supports the South Asian fertility community both in the UK and internationally.

When the path ends somewhere different from where you thought it would?This episode is for anyone who has made , or is close to making , the decision to stop treatment. It's for anyone navigating secondary infertility, sitting with grief alongside gratitude, or trying to find the words for feelings that don't have easy names.

Do you have adult children? Maybe like me, you have a college student. My youngest son graduated high school last year and went away to college, so I am officially an empty nester. Maybe you have a child who just graduated college and is now adulting. This happened for me too. I am excited to share with you this amazing book I read, *Doing Life With Your Adult Children by Jim Burns. The subtitle is Keep your mouth shut and the welcome mat out. This book is a must read if you have adult children! I have found it to be so helpful. One of things I love is that he talks about how our role as parents has changed. He says, "The role you play in your children's lives must diminish in order for them to transition from adolescence to responsible adulthood." On the podcast this week, I will be sharing four strategies to help you embrace your new job description, and I know these will help you as you parent your adult children! Important Links: *How We Love by Milan and Kay Yerkovich (marriage book) Link to Depth Podcast Episode 140: my conversation with Milan and Kay about their book, *How We Love Our Kids (parenting book).

V tejto časti #navrsku sa venujeme textu Dr. Christophera Snowdona „Anti Capitalism and Public Health“, ktorú zverejnil Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA) a ktorú sme v INESS preložili do slovenčiny pod názvom Antikapitalizmus a verejné zdravie. Snowdon ukazuje, ako sa významná časť akademickej obce z oblasti verejného zdravia vzdialila od neutrálnej, dôkazmi založenej vedy a stále častejšie používa výslovne protikapitalistické rétoriku, ktoré trh, obchod a hospodársky rast označujú za základnú príčinu mnohých zdravotných problémov ľudstva.Dr. Christopher Snowdon je šéf oddelenia „Lifestyle Economics“ pri IEA a dlhodobo kritický voči tzv. „zdravotno autoritatívnym“ opatreniam a „pestúnskemu štátu“ pri regulácii alkoholu, tabaku a potravín. V tejto práci rozoberá, ako sa v verejnom zdravotníctve posúva zameranie od konkrétnych priemyselných odvetví („big tobacco“, „big food“) k útoku na širšie „komerčné determinanty zdravia“ a ako niektorí výskumníci volajú po radikálnych ekonomických alternatívach ako „degrowth“ alebo „doughnut economics“.Video vysvetľuje, prečo Snowdon považuje tento vývoj menej za „zdravotnú“, a viac za ideologickú debatu, a prečo volá na trhovo orientovaných politikov, aby brali tento protikapitalistický prúd v verejnom zdravotníctve vážne. Vysvetľujeme tiež, ako takéto postoje môžu viesť k reálnym politickým opatreniam, od zdanenia cukru a minimálnej ceny alkoholu až po širšie pokusy regulovať kapitalizmus v mene verejného zdravia.

In this powerful and hope-filled episode of Elevate the Day, we sit down with author Jodi Snowdon to explore how faith can carry us from the depths of heartbreak into a place of healing, purpose, and true happiness.Drawing from her personal journey and her book Depth: Growing Through Heartbreak to Strength, Jodi shares how life's most painful moments—loss, grief, and disappointment—can become the very places where God does His deepest work. Through honest conversation, she unpacks what it looks like to invite God into your pain, trust Him when answers don't come easily, and discover strength you didn't know you had.If you've ever experienced heartbreak or are walking through a difficult season, this episode will remind you that you are not alone—and that joy is still possible on the other side.Key Takeaways1. Healing Begins When You Invite God Into Your PainAvoiding pain delays healing. True transformation starts when you bring your heartbreak honestly before God and allow Him to meet you there.2. Your Pain Has PurposeWhat feels like an ending may actually be the beginning of growth. God can use your story to build resilience, shape your character, and even help others heal.3. Faith Turns “Why” Into “What Now”You may not always get answers, but you can choose trust. Shifting your mindset from questioning to trusting opens the door to peace and forward movement.Ready to go deeper in your healing journey?Get Jodi Snowdon's book Depth: Growing Through Heartbreak to Strength and begin turning your pain into purpose today.

After Hours Episode #96: In this episode of After Hours, I hang out with my “twin from another timeline” Jay Snowdon, for a funny, honest, and surprisingly heartfelt conversation. We get into Jay's journey from rehab to grooming, building a following by being unapologetically authentic, and the kind of energy that can completely change the vibe behind the grooming table. We also talk about social media, queer identity, viral moments, favorite grooming products, and why real connection—with both dogs and people—is what matters most. And yes, there's definitely a little Taylor Swift talk too

Special Note: As you know, we typically record our episodes in advance. This episode was recorded at the beginning of 2026 so you'll hear a lot about being in a new year with focus on new beginnings. And while we are already well into Lent, Jodi Snowdon's message is powerful no matter what season we find ourselves in. We hope you enjoy this episode. ***ShownotesWe're in a New Year, new year's resolutions, a time for transformation and often in grief, we have mixed feelings. On one end, it's a fresh start, an opportunity to look to change, but on the other end, we move  into uncharted waters and the grief and heartbreak follow with us. We ask those simple questions.  God, it's supposed to be a new year. Why do I still feel miserable? Why hasn't this pain ended? How much longer do I need to stay in this space? But this is also where God meets us and the true transformation begins.  In this episode, we are going to talk about why not one moment of suffering is wasted and how each of these moments can actually turn us into who God wants us to be. Our GuestJodi Snowdon is an author, podcaster, and speaker who helps women grow deeper in their faith and stronger in their relationships. Through God's strength, she emerged from miscarriage, divorce, and losing a dear friend to cancer to help women everywhere experience hope, joy, and purpose through life's unexpected storms. She is raising two sons (one in college and one adulting) in Southern California and would love to connect with you on her website, jodisnowdon.com or on Instagram @jodi.snowdonScripturePsalm 34:18-19John 14:272 Cor 1:3-4Jeremiah 17:7-8Psalm 1:3LinksAngel Oak TreeKinstugiMichelangelo's Pietà statue“Praise You in the Storm” by Casting Crowns“Glory Baby” by WatermarkGrieving the Child I Never Knew: A Devotional for Comfort in the Loss of Your Unborn or Newly Born Child by Kathe WunnenbergHope in the Dark by Craig Grischell Prayer for the soul of Jodi's mom with Dementia Journaling QuestionsJodi uses the analogy of a cracked pot to describe brokenness but also that it can be glued together. In what areas do you feel the brokenness but also see how God is slowly mending you back together? Reflect on Jodi's acronym for STRENGTH. Which of these are you working on right now? Which of these might be challenging for you?Where do you see God inviting you to plant roots?Seek God and invite Him into your pain.Tearfully allow yourself time to grieve and process the emotions.Replace your finite view with God's infinite perspective.Embrace God's character development in the midst of the chaos.Never lose sight of God's grace.Give praise to God even as your heart breaks.Trust God is good when your mind is doubting, and you don't understand.Honestly share your story and help another hurting heart.How does Jodi's story remind us that God will repair our brokenness? Where is he calling you right now to use this newfound knowledge? We hope you enjoy this episode of the Mourning Glory Podcast and share it with others who are on a journey through grief.

What do you think is the most important thing in life? Would it be what you do--- Your job? Maybe your accomplishments? Your Hard Work? Your reputation? All of that is what people see from the outside. Or would it be what happens on the inside---- That deep rooted growth that happens where no one really sees it-- it is invisible? I think it has to do with what happens in the inner part of our life. I love this quote, "The most important thing in your life is not what you do, but about who you become." Today, I am so excited to highlight this book, *Soul Keeping by John Ortberg. The subtitle says Caring for the Most Important Part of You. Our Soul! I know you are going to learn so much from John's book -- it is full of wisdom. I share about John Mark Comer's Book, *The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry. My dad and I were both reading this book at the same time back in December 2024, so he was my podcast guest as we talked about this book.

Happy New Year! Have you ever read a book, and there is a quote that stands out to you? It really captivates you with the words on it! I have to tell you about this book I read back in 2025. It was in the summer where I had taken a sabbatical after my dad passed away, and I had gotten this book from a friend called *The Well Watered Woman. At the beginning of the book, after a couple pages, this is what is says, "You don't have to be blooming to be growing." I immediately paused and thought, Oh my goodness, I needed to hear that today. Maybe you need to hear it too. This week on the podcast, I will share some of my favorite truths from this book, *The Well Watered Woman by Gretchen Saffles. The book has so many great takeaways and words of wisdom that I know will encourage you as you start this new year, 2026. If you are looking for a great book to read too, I highly recommend this one.

We recently spent three weeks in North Wales, and TBH, we left a big part of our hearts in Cymru. From the mystical borderlands to the rugged coastline and the top of Snowdon, Wales is thick with friendly sheep, genial locals, alluringly dark folklore, and natural-born storytellers. A few bits and bobs about Wales: It's symbolized by a ferocious red dragon (and the yellow daffodil). Its lakes, rivers, and mountains are home to the fair folk (the Tylwyth Teg). And it's known as the Land of Castles (more than 600 of them on hilltops, overlooking the sea and millions of sheep). Wales is the place for you if you want to ramble around outside under moody skies; it's also the place for you if you prefer to be cozy — perhaps whilst drinking tea or whisky and feeding your mind with literary pursuits. In this episode, we highlight the literary hijinks that abound in Wales: libraries, bookshops, legendary authors, and ancient tales. We learn about a Christmas tradition that's equal parts silly and spooky — and a madcap endurance race with unusual participants. Then we recommend great books that took us there on the page, including a literary story on a rugged Welsh island, a gripping mystery in Cardiff, a travelogue stuffed with delicious food stories, a rock-n-roll memoir, and a modern retelling of Dracula set in a Welsh village.

Do you know my favorite chapter in my book, Depth? It is kind of like asking, "Who is your favorite child" to someone who has kids. It is very hard to narrow it down to one chapter. But one of my favorite things to talk about besides trees is my broken pot----my cracked clay pot where God taught me so much about brokenness. Today, the Depth book is being re-launched! I am so excited that the print copy is available today, November 4th! So, to honor that, I thought I would read this special chapter in my book.

Third-generation owner Travis Seeholzer came on the pod a few years back to trace the eight-decade arc from this dude flexing 10-foot-long kamikaze boards to the present:Just about every ski area in America was hacked out of the wilderness by Some Guy Who Looked Like That. Dave McCoy at Mammoth or Ernie Blake at Taos or Everett Kircher at Boyne Mountain, swarthy, willful fellows who flew airplanes and erected rudimentary chairlifts in impossible places and hammered together their own baselodges. Over decades they chiseled these mountains into their personal Rushmores, a life's work, a human soul knotted to nature in a built place that would endure for generations.It's possible that they all imagined their family name governing those generations. In the remarkable case of Boyne, they still do. But the Kirchers and the Seeholzers are ski-world exceptions. Successive generations are often uninterested in the chore of legacy building. Or they try and say wow this is expensive. Or bad weather leads to bad financial choices by our cigar-smoking, backhoe-driving, machete-wielding founder and his sons and daughters never get their chance. The ski area's deed shuffles into the portfolio of a Colorado Skico and McCoy fades a little each year and at some point Mammoth is just another ski area owned by Alterra Mountain Company.It's tempting to sentimentalize the past, to lament skiing's macro-transition from gritty network of founder-kingpin fifes to set of corporate brands, to conclude that “this generation” just doesn't have the tenacity of a Blake or a McCoy. But the America where a fellow could turn up with a dump truck and a chainsaw and flatten raw forest into a for-profit business with minimal protest is gone. Every part of the ski ecosystem is more regulated, complicated, and expensive than it's ever been. The appeal of running such a machine - and the skillset necessary to do so - is entirely different from that of sculpting your own personal snow Narnia from scratch. We will always have family-owned ski areas (we still have hundreds), and an occasional modern founder-disruptor like Mount Bohemia's Lonie Glieberman will materialize like a new X-man. But ski conglomerates have probably always been inevitable, and are probably largely the industry's future. They are best suited, in most cases, to manage, finance, and maintain the vast machinery of our largest ski centers (and also to create a ski landscape in which not all ski area operators are Some Guy Who Looked Like That).Killington demonstrates this arc from rambunctious founder to corporate vassal as well as any mountain in the country. Founded in 1958 by the wily and wild Pres Smith, the ski area's parent company, Sherburne Corp., bought Sunday River, Maine in 1973 and Mount Snow, Vermont in 1977. The two Vermont mountains became S-K-I in 1984, bought five more ski areas, and merged with four-resort LBO in 1996 to become the titanic American Skiing Company. Unfortunately ASC turned out to be skiing's Titanic, and one of the company's last acts before dissolution was to sell Killington and Pico to Utah-based Powdr in 2007.The Beast had been tamed, at least on paper. Corporate ownership of some sort felt as stapled to the mountain as Killington's 3,000 snowguns. And mostly, well, it didn't matter. Other than Powdr's disastrous attempts to shorten the resort's famously long seasons, Killington never lost its feisty edge. Over the decades the ski area modernized, masterplanned, and shed skier volume while increasing its viability as a business. Modern Killington wasn't the kingdom of a charismatic and ever-present founder, but it was a pretty good ski area.And then, suddenly, shockingly, Powdr sold both Killington and Pico last August. And they didn't sell the ski areas to Vail or Alterra or Boyne or to anyone who owned any ski areas at all. Instead, a group of local investors - led by Phill Gross and Michael Ferri, longtime Killington homeowners who ran a variety of non-ski-related businesses - bought the mountains. After 51 years as part of a multi-mountain ownership group, Killington (its relationship to neighboring Pico notwithstanding), was once again independent.It was all so improbable. Out-of-state operators had purchased five of Vermont's large ski areas in recent years: Colorado-based Vail Resorts bought Stowe in 2017, Okemo in 2018, and Mount Snow in 2019; Denver-based Alterra claimed Sugarbush in 2019; and Utah-based Pacific Group Resorts added Jay Peak to their small portfolio in 2022. Very few ski areas have ever entered the corporate matrix and re-emerged as independents. Grand Targhee, Wyoming; Waterville Valley, New Hampshire; and Mountain Creek, New Jersey (technically owned by multimountain operator Snow Partners) are exceptions spun off from larger companies. But mostly, once a larger entity absorbed a ski area, it stays locked in the multimountain universe forever.So what would this mean? For the largest and busiest mountain in the eastern United States to be independent? Did this, along with Powdr's intentions to sell Mount Bachelor (since rescinded), Eldora (sale in process), and Silver Star (no update), mark a reversal in the consolidation trend that had gathered 30 percent of America's ski areas under the umbrella of a multi-mountain operator? Did Killington's group of wealthy-but-not-Bezos-wealthy investors set an alternate blueprint for large-mountain ownership, especially when considered alongside the sale of Jackson Hole to a similar group the year before? Had the Ikon Pass – that harbinger of mass-market pass domination that had forced the we-better-join-them sales of Crystal Mountain, Washington and Sugarbush – inadvertently become a reliable revenue pipeline that made independence more viable? And would Killington, well-managed and constantly improving, backslide under cowboy owners who want to Q-Burke the place in their image?We're a year in now, and we have some clarity on these questions, along with two new chairlifts (Superstar this year, Snowdon next), 1,000 new snowguns, a revitalized Skyeship Gondola, and progressing plans on the East's first true ski village. Locals seem happy, management seems happy, the owners seem happy. Easy enough, Gross points out in our interview, when winter hits deep like the last one did. But can we keep the party going indefinitely? It was time for a check-in.What we talked aboutA strong first winter under independent ownership; what spring skiing off Canyon lift told us about the importance of Superstar; “it's an incredibly complex operation”; letting the smart people do their jobs; Killington's surprise spin-off from a multi-mountain operator; “our job is to keep the honeymoon going”; Superstar's six-pack upgrade; why six-packs are probably Killington's lift-upgrade future; why Pico is demolishing the Bonanza lift for a covered carpet; why Superstar won't have bubbles; where bubbles might make sense in a future lift; why ski areas can no longer run snowmaking under newly constructed chairlifts; why Superstar is a Doppelmayr machine after Killington installed a brand-new Leitner-Poma six at Snowdon in 2018; long- and short-term Superstar impacts to Killington's long season; long-term thoughts around early-season walkway access to North Ridge; Skyeship Gondola upgrades, including $5 million in new cabins; what 1,000 new snowguns means in practice; why Killington sold the Wobbly Barn; considering Killington as a business and investment; how Killington is a different financial beast from other Vermont ski areas; how close Killington was to going unlimited on Ikon Pass; Phill's journey to buying Killington; Devil's Fiddle and why sometimes things that don't make sense financially make sense anyway; “we want to own this for generations to come”; a village layout and timeline update – “we want to make sure that this is something that's additive to the ski experience” even if you don't own within it; “Great Gulf wants this [village] to be competitive for the western resorts”; “we don't want to change what Pico is”; how piping water over from Killington has reinvigorated and stabilized Pico; why Killington and Pico remained on Ikon Pass post-sale and probably will for the foreseeable future; is Ikon helping big ski areas stay independent?; Killington's steady rise in lift ticket prices; future lift upgrades and why the Snowdon Triple is next up for a replacement.What I got wrong* File “opinionation” under LOL I'm Dumb Talking Is Hard* I said that former Killington owner Powdr had “just sold” Eldora, but that's not accurate: in July, the town of Nederland, Colorado, announced their intent to purchase the ski area. The sales process is ongoing.Podcast NotesOn previous Killington podsOn Gross' purchase of Killington and PicoOn ANSI chairlift standardsWe get a bit in the weeds with a reference to “ANSI standards” for chairlifts. ANSI is the American National Standards Institute, a nonprofit organization that sets voluntary but widely adopted standards for everything from office furniture to electrical systems to safety signage in the United States. The ANSI standard for lifts, according to a blog post describing the code's 2022 update, is “developed by the National Ski Areas Association (NSAA), [and] establishes standard requirements for the design, manufacture, construction, operation, and maintenance of passenger ropeways.” On Killington's long seasonsKillington often opens in October (though it has not done so since 2018), and closes in June (three straight years before a deliberately truncated 2024-25 season to begin demolition of the Superstar chair).

How do you want to be remembered? What kind of legacy do you want to leave behind? I have been thinking about this a lot lately, especially considering what happened in our country with the assassination of Charlie Kirk. But also, because I lost my dad recently. In addition to that, many great Christian leaders have passed away in recent months like Dr. James Dobson, John MacArthur, Kay Arthur, and Phil Robertson. Heaven has never seemed closer in the last couple months, and I have been reflecting on the end of our lives and how do we finish well. This makes me think of a Bible character, Moses. Some think he did not finish well, but I disagree. I am excited to do a Bible Shoes episode on the podcast again and dive deeper into Moses' life and how I believe he finished well. I reference Lisa Appelo's Instagram account and her words of wisdom on grief. She is a friend who sadly lost her husband and encourages widows. She has lots to share on how public grief can affect private grief. Here is direct link to the post I read in this episode. Lisa started Hope in Grief on her website which I have contributed to in the past years. I definitely recommend checking it out. Also, she has been a guest on my Depth Podcast twice, so I will share links below so you can listen. Depth Podcast Episode 127 with Lisa Appelo. We discussed her book, *Life Can Be Good Again. Depth Podcast Episode 12 where she shares God's faithfulness in her grief. If you missed my introduction of Bible Shoes, I am going to be picking one person in the Bible and I am going to try to put myself in their shoes. I am going to ask myself, what are they thinking? What are they feeling? How does this relate to us in present day? Check out this blog post to explain it!

Are you an overthinker? Do you think about something way longer than anyone else would? I know I do. I sit there and ruminate over things that most people would have let go of after just a couple minutes. This is the struggle I have- maybe you have this same struggle. So I was so excited when I came across this book this summer. It is a brand-new release by Max Lucado called *Tame Your Thoughts: Three Tools to Renew Your Mind and Transform Your Life. After seeing it, I bought this book immediately and read it in one day- it is so good! It is full of some truth and practical advice to help. I am going to share some of my favorite takeaways from his new book as well as from an older book called *Anxious for Nothing by Max Lucado. I highly recommend these books!

Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon was a bright rose, who bloomed even in the shadow of her older sister, Queen Elizabeth II. She was a fashion icon and the life of many parties. She had a scandalous romance her sovereign sibling could never sanction, and a disastrous marriage which paved the way for future royal divorces. And through it all, she was a dedicated support and friend to the Queen. Let's peek behind the tabloid headlines and the outrageous scenes in the Crown, and get to know the real Princess Margaret.

https://Art2Life.com - Bonny Snowdon has a unique way of looking at art—she shares how to critique your art without tearing yourself apart, how to be kind to yourself, and how to find joy in the act of creating. Bonny opens up about her journey, and it's the kind of story a lot of us can relate to: life throws a few too many punches, and suddenly, you're searching for something that makes you feel alive again. For Bonny, that was drawing. She turned that love for art into her full-time gig—teaching, creating, and sharing the beauty of conscious creation with the world. We dig into how Bonny keeps a positive attitude, how she's learned to roll with imperfection, and why art has been such a powerful force for her.
