    On this episode we are joined by Dr. Ashley Dumas again and she explains the fascinating story of when Hernando de Soto's expedition met the Mobilian people in October 1540 at the Battle of Mabila in present-day Alabama. This violent clash—triggered by a hostage standoff with Chief Tuskaloosa—led to the destruction of the palisaded town and remains one of the largest, bloodiest battles fought on North American soil. As Gamekeepers, we love the land and this story intertwines over much of the South. Their survival and dependence on wildlife speaks to the abundance that was once here.

    El gran eje del programa será la charla con Alberto Evangelio, director de Mi cielo tu infierno (Cel Meu Infern Teu), una película escrita por Ana Piles y Noelia Martínez que viaja a la España de los años 60 y 70 para retratar una relación amorosa marcada por la clandestinidad, la represión y el peso de una sociedad que castigaba todo aquello que se salía de la norma. La película sigue a Adela y Victoria, dos mujeres que viven una historia de amor imposible en la sociedad valenciana de la época. A pesar de los impedimentos, las prohibiciones y el castigo social, ninguna de las dos consigue olvidar a la otra. El reparto está encabezado por Tània Fortea y Sandra Cervera, junto a Víctor Palmero, Vicent Domingo, Rosanna Espinòs, Antonio Hortelano y Enric Benavent. El estreno de Mi cielo tu infierno llega en una semana especialmente intensa para el cine español, y "Sección Oficial" aprovecha la ocasión para convertir la película en uno de los grandes puntos de atención de su nueva entrega. Rodajes, estrenos y nuevos proyectos del cine español El programa también repasará varios rodajes que ya se han puesto en marcha o acaban de finalizar. Entre ellos destaca Jarabo, la nueva película de Emilio Martínez-Lázaro, inspirada en hechos reales y centrada en José María Jarabo, uno de los primeros criminales mediáticos de la España de finales de los años 50. Eduardo Noriega interpreta a este personaje complejo, elegante y perturbador, cuya historia conmocionó al país en plena etapa franquista. Otro de los proyectos que se han puesto en marcha es Desde arriba, el nuevo largometraje de Martín Cuervo, protagonizado por Gonzalo de Castro, Dafne Fernández, Almudena Amor y Álvaro Cavadas. La película se presenta como una comedia incómoda sobre un actor en crisis que debe convivir con su hijo adolescente, hasta que una situación límite en el tejado de una casa obliga a la familia a enfrentarse a sus tensiones internas. También hay espacio para El Confidente, dirigida por Daniel Calparsoro y protagonizada por Javier Gutiérrez y Miguel Herrán. Inspirada en hechos reales, la película acaba de finalizar su rodaje tras seis semanas de filmación en Gipuzkoa y el sur de Francia. La historia plantea una relación marcada por la lealtad, la soledad y los límites morales entre un policía veterano y su joven confidente. "Ravalear", "Corredora" y la actualidad de los festivales La entrega número 32 de Sección Oficial incluye además una alfombra roja dedicada a Ravalear, la serie de HBO Max creada por Pol Rodríguez e inspirada en su propia historia familiar. El programa contará con declaraciones del propio Pol Rodríguez y de dos de sus protagonistas, Enric Auquer y María Rodríguez Soto. También se habla de Corredora, la ópera prima de Laura García Alonso, protagonizada por Alba Sáez junto a Marina Salas y Àlex Brendemühl. La película aborda un territorio poco habitual en la ficción: la salud mental en el deporte de élite, con una historia sobre la autoexigencia, el miedo al fracaso, la reconciliación y la aceptación personal. En el apartado de festivales, el programa mirará hacia citas como Lo Que Viene Tenerife, Irish ZineFest, FILMADRID y el +RAIN Festival Internacional de Cinema i Intel·ligència Artificial. Todas ellas marcan una semana con fuerte presencia de cine, series, nuevos talentos y debates sobre el futuro del audiovisual. De "La bola negra" a los estrenos en salas del 5 de junio La actualidad cinematográfica también tendrá peso propio con noticias como el adelanto del estreno de La bola negra, la nueva película de Javier Calvo y Javier Ambrossi, que llegará a los cines el 25 de septiembre y después podrá verse en Movistar Plus. El filme, inspirado en una obra inacabada de Federico García Lorca, cuenta con un reparto encabezado por Guitarricadelafuente, Miguel Bernardeau, Carlos González, Milo Quifes, Lola Dueñas, Penélope Cruz y Glenn Close. El programa también se detendrá en la fecha de estreno de El último mono, la nueva comedia de Joaquín Mazón Lacasa, protagonizada por Juan Dávila y Susana Abaitua, con una trama que juega con las relaciones entre hombres y mujeres en tiempos de redes sociales. La entrega se completa con un repaso a los estrenos en salas del 5 de junio, entre los que figuran títulos como He-Man y los masters del universo, Scary Movie, Backrooms, Cada día nace un listo, Todo lo que nunca fuimos, La luz, Este cuerpo mío, Los ilusos 13+13, Una película de miedo y Mi cielo tu infierno.

    In this special 200th episode of RV Out West, we sit down with Edwin and Jessely Soto, the couple behind From the Hatch, for a raw and honest conversation about full time RV living, family travel, and building a nomadic lifestyle from the ground up. What makes their story so different is that when they first started RV life, they had absolutely zero experience. In fact, I first met the Sotos over five years ago in a campground in Pennsylvania on their very first night living full time in an RV.Since then, Edwin and Jessely have traveled across the country, navigated major RV breakdowns, worked through health challenges, and learned how to adapt to the ups and downs that come with life on the road. In this episode, they share why they chose the full time RV lifestyle, how their family and friends eventually came to understand their decision, and the ways travel has shaped them not just as individuals, but as a couple and as a family.This episode is filled with heartfelt stories, honest reflections, and practical insight for anyone curious about RV living, van life, family travel, digital nomad life, or long term travel in an RV. If you are already living on the road or still dreaming about taking the leap into full time travel, Edwin and Jessely bring a relatable and inspiring perspective to the conversation.Be sure to follow From the Hatch on Instagram and join us next week for part two, where we talk about their travels throughout the Pacific Northwest, creating music while living on the road, and how they make this lifestyle work for their family.Visit our newest sponsor: Scenic WashingtonOrder your FREE Washington State Scenic Byway guide and map.Send us Fan MailSign up for our NewsletterPlease follow the show so you never miss an episode.

    The Mets are officially back to being consistent again… unfortunately it's the bad kind of consistency.After winning 5 of 6 and giving fans a tiny little taste of hope, the Mets responded by immediately losing 5 of 6, including getting swept in Miami by the Marlins — which should honestly qualify as emotional terrorism at this point — and then dropping 2 of 3 at HOME to the Reds because apparently Citi Field is now a charity organization for mediocre baseball teams.So this week, Farace, Rodriguez, and Producer Joe try to figure out whether this team actually has another turnaround in them… or if Mets fans are just being dragged through another 162-game trust exercise.This weekend also brings one of the weirdest and most Mets celebrations imaginable: Bobby Valentine Day. Yes, fans will receive disguises in honor of Bobby V's legendary fake mustache dugout return, proving once again that no franchise in sports celebrates chaos quite like the Mets. On top of that, the Mets Hall of Fame ceremony honors Carlos Beltran, Lee Mazzilli, and Bobby Valentine himself on Saturday at Citi Field.We'll also dive into Jose Reyes naming his Top 5 Mets nemesis list and give our own. Braves? Phillies? Chipper Jones? The entire state of Florida? We're opening old wounds tonight.Meanwhile, Juan Soto has basically become the entire offense by himself, smashing 8 home runs over his last 12 games while the rest of the lineup occasionally shows up like substitute teachers. If Soto cools off for even 48 hours, somebody may need to legally classify this offense as missing persons.On the pitching side, McLean has hit a rough patch, and the Mets continue struggling with consistency from both the rotation and bullpen. Yet somehow… despite all the frustration, this team currently has the SAME record as the 2024 Mets team that finished with 89 wins. So now the question becomes: does this roster actually have another run in them or are we all just coping?We'll also get into early trade deadline chatter after Jon Heyman said he wouldn't be shocked if the Mets eventually consider moving Francisco Lindor. Mets Twitter handled that news very calmly and rationally of course. Definitely no overreactions there.Plus:* Opening Day Mets baseball card set opening* Grading the Opening Day roster* Producer Joe preparing emotionally for ANOTHER west coast trip because apparently MLB thinks the Mets live in California now* And the show's long-standing goal remains the same: get this team back to .500 by the All-Star break… even if fans have every right to still be furious watching this team lose to bad baseball clubs.Next up: 3 against the Marlins at Citi Field before heading to Seattle and San Diego for what feels like the 800th west coast trip of the season.Baseball.

    Do you ever wonder who makes those chalkboard signs at Trader Joe's? Well, that's how Benjamin Soto got started—drawing Trader Joe's signs by day and designing band merch at night for Fearless Records.In 1998, Ben was recruited by Paul Frank to help kick off the massive millennial pop-culture brand Paul Frank Industries. Ben managed the brand creative for about 10 years, which meant involvement with character designs, the tee and fleece program, pajama prints, photoshoots, trade show booths, retail spaces, collaborations/licensed products. They even let him voice Julius the Monkey on the pilot show of Yo-Gabba-Gabba.In 2008, Disney Animation called and gave Ben the job of helping to create and Art Direct a cartoon based on Evel Knievel's daredevil culture. The Emmy nominated show Kick Buttowski had 52 episodes and aired between 2010-2012. Ben eventually left Disney to partner up with some other entrepreneurs to start the next creative adventure: C-Preme. They had captured "lightning in a bottle" with their 3-D youth bicycle helmet brand, Raskullz. Within three years, they had sold over 3 million helmets and countless other outdoor products. C-Preme sold to Bell Helmets (Easton Bell Sports) in 2014.Ben stayed on working for Bell Helmets until the next idea hit: a colorful cooler manufactured like a bicycle helmet. Target accepted a huge order; patents were in the works, and before the dust settled, they sold their company to Igloo Products Corp. in 2016. Ben is still at Igloo, managing creative for the cooler brand. You might've seen a little bit of Ben in the VW Playmate bus, retro coolers, eco coolers, licensed coolers, and the packaging and marketing of the brand. Igloo sold to Dometic in 2021 for a lot more money than anyone ever dreamed of.Michelle and Ben dive into Ben's amazing career, from Paul Frank to Igloo, and his extensive experience with graphic design. Ben shares stories from past trade shows (before the days of social media) and the wild ride that was Paul Frank in the early days. Michelle and Ben also discuss his transition to Disney, then Igloo, living in Hong Kong, and where Ben looks for inspiration.What's Inside:How Ben got started at Paul Frank and stories from the early days.Ben's experience working at Disney and Igloo.How Ben finds his inspiration.This week's episode is sponsored by @salesproducersinc, a progressive business to business company representing Gift, Lifestyle, Fashion, Personal Care, & Kids lines selling to retail stores with a mission to create long lasting, profitable relationships by adding significant value to our Customer, Vendor, and Team partners.

    FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text MessageThis is a video and audio podcast:  click here for videoMaduro in a New York City jail cell makes for a clean headline, but we can't rebuild a country with headlines. We zoom out from the drama and ask the harder question: what comes next for Venezuela when the man is gone but the machine remains? I'm David Kaiser, and this Mojo Minute connects today's crisis to a book that saw these problems coming decades ago: Hernando de Soto's “The Mystery of Capital.”We walk through why political change alone doesn't repair an economy after years of seizures, corruption, and fear. Venezuela's collapse isn't just about oil production or election results. It's about the invisible infrastructure that makes an economy work: enforceable property rights, trustworthy courts, and a system that lets everyday people use what they own to build wealth. De Soto calls the trapped value in informal assets “dead capital,” and it explains why millions of hardworking people can own homes or businesses yet still be locked out of credit, investment, and growth.Then we lay out a practical roadmap for recovery: formalize property at scale so assets can become collateral, build rule of law that can't be bought, and slash the red tape that keeps entrepreneurs stuck in the shadows. The ending is a challenge, not a slogan: does Venezuela have the political will to do the unglamorous work that turns dignity into durable prosperity?Key Points from the Episode: • Maduro's removal not restoring what decades of socialist demolition destroyed  • GDP collapse and mass flight as signs of systemic rot  • De Soto's claim that property rights drive wealth creation  • Dead capital as untitled assets frozen outside the formal economy  • Turning dead capital into live capital through mass property formalization  • Building a rule of law that cannot be bought  • Demolishing red tape that blocks small businesses from going legal  • Political will as the deciding factor for Venezuela's recovery  if you like books

In this book, published with Routledge, Dr Soto-Hernández uses ethnographic methods during her intensive fieldwork in Chile, specifically in and around the Atacama Desert, to take a relational view on lithium mining in the region. Chile is the largest and oldest producer of lithium in South America and the second largest in the world, accounting for nearly 32% of the global supply in 2022. Dr Soto-Hernández's book, Lithium Extraction in Chile, is a crucial and new way of seeking to understand not only lithium, but the worlds that are created around the resource; inclusive of sacred, indigenous relations, the ubiquitous role of water, the discursive and practical dimensions of lithium production, and the social tensions manifest throughout these processes. Dr Soto-Hernández first explores the ways in which the Chilean Atacama Desert has been constructed as a ‘desolate-scape' through mechanisms and relations of coloniality and capitalism, to render the territory as lifeless and only appropriate for extraction. Then, and by using the rich fieldwork central to the book, Dr Soto-Hernández puts forward the notion of ‘desertscape' to express the ways of living for indigenous peoples in the territories of the Atacama Desert, such as for the Lickanantay peoples. This paints a direct contrast to the colonised view of the desert as a ‘desolate-scape', which serves capital, and instead expresses the abundance, world-making, and life-giving properties of the landscape as ‘desertscape'. This relational view of the Atacama Desert, inclusive of non-people, people, and the sacred, is then used to understand the role of lithium, brine, and water extraction in this crucial territory, with implications for a truly transformative energy transition. Elliot Dolan-Evans is a sessional lecturer and tutor in law at Monash University and RMIT. His research investigates the political economy of global capitalism, forms of international governance, and questions of war and peace. His first book, Making War Safe for Capitalism: The World Bank, IMF and the Conflict in Ukraine, is now out with Bristol University Press. Learn more about your ad choices.

    Ep. 80 - The Deer Are NOT Alright: Chronic Wasting Disease

    The Field Guides

    Play Episode Listen Later Apr 30, 2026


    Something's not right in the woods, at least if you're a white-tailed deer. In this episode, the guys dig into chronic wasting disease (CWD), a strange illness reshaping deer populations in many areas of the Lower 48 (and Scandinavia!). It's not caused by a virus or a bacteria, but it is related to mad cow disease. They break down what it is, how it spreads, what's happening inside infected animals, and why it's so dang hard to contain. The deer are not alright… and there's a reason.This episode was recorded on April 23, 2026 at Walton Woods Park in Amherst, NY (a suburb of Buffalo). Episode Notes and Links· Are there different CWD strains in a single animal? Chronic wasting disease isn't a single, uniform pathogen. It's more like a shifting swarm. Infected deer can carry multiple prion “strains” at once, meaning different misfolded shapes of the same protein that behave in slightly different ways. They could spread through the body differently, build up in different tissues, and cause disease at different rates. Lab experiments show this most clearly: when CWD prions are passed through model systems, what looks like one strain can split into multiple distinct variants, or reveal that a mixed population was there all along (e.g., Angers et al. 2010 PNAS; Béringue et al. 2012 Journal of Virology; Li et al. 2010 Journal of Virology). In actual deer, the picture is harder to pin down, but studies comparing prions from different tissues and individuals show real strain diversity and suggest that more than one strain can exist within a single animal (e.g., Angers et al. 2009 Journal of Virology; Moore et al. 2016 Emerging Infectious Diseases). The takeaway is that CWD behaves less like a single disease agent and more like a moving target: a cloud of protein shapes, some dominant, some hidden in the background, that can shift over time, giving the disease more chances to adapt, persist, and potentially jump into new hosts.· Does repeated exposure to CWD reduce incubation time in deer? Repeated exposure to CWD prions does likely shortens incubation time, mainly because prion diseases are strongly dose-dependent. Higher cumulative exposure, whether from a single large dose or many smaller ones over time, can both increase the chance of infection and accelerate disease progression. Experimental studies in deer and elk show that animals exposed to higher or repeated doses tend to develop symptoms faster than those exposed once at low levels. In the wild, this likely plays out through repeated contact with contaminated environments like soil, plants, and carcass sites. That said, factors like genetics and prion strain can still influence how quickly the disease develops in any given animal.· Is CWD the only prion disease that affects wildlife? CWD is the only prion disease currently thriving as a self-sustaining epidemic in wild populations. The others mostly sit at the edges and are livestock diseases that occasionally spill into wildlife or appear in captive/wild interface cases. For example, scrapie occasionally “leaks” into the wild (it has been found in bighorn sheep), but it doesn't take over. It flickers at the edges of livestock systems. Nothing like the landscape-level, self-sustaining spread we see with CWD. That's what makes CWD so concerning: it's not just present in wildlife, it seems to be built for it.· Steve talked about the possibility of vampire bats and wild hogs spreading CWD. What's the story? There's currently no evidence that vampire bats are spreading CWD, but the wild hog story has gotten more interesting recently. Blood-feeding bats like the Common Vampire Bat (Desmodus rotundus) are often mentioned because prions can occur in blood at low levels, but there are no peer-reviewed studies showing bat-mediated transmission, nor any field patterns linking bats to CWD spread. So the bat idea remains speculative. Wild hogs (Sus scrofa), on the other hand, have moved beyond pure theory. A recent peer-reviewed study (e.g., Soto et al. 2025 Emerging Infectious Diseases) detected low levels of CWD prion activity in free-ranging pigs in endemic areas, suggesting they can pick up and carry prions after scavenging infected carcasses. Combine this with earlier work showing prions can survive digestion and still remain infectious (e.g., Nichols et al. 2009 PLoS ONE), it all points to hogs as plausible mechanical vectors: in other words, organisms that can move infectious material without necessarily developing the disease themselves. The takeaway: vampire bats are still a biologically interesting but unsupported idea, while wild hogs are emerging as potential “messy middlemen,” capable of redistributing prions across the landscape, even if they're not a primary engine of CWD transmission, which is still driven by deer-to-deer contact and long-lived environmental contamination.· Why doesn't NYS do more free testing?New York doesn't offer broad, free testing for every deer. Not because it's ignoring CWD, but because it uses a more targeted, strategic approach. There are a few key constraints on broad, free testing:Cost & logistics: Each test isn't just a swab. It involves lab processing (often PCR or amplification assays), trained staff, and sample handling. Scaling that to hundreds of thousands of deer is a major lift.Low prevalence (right now): When disease prevalence is near zero, mass testing tends to return very few positives, so agencies prioritize early detection in hotspots instead.Management strategy: Agencies often invest more in prevention (carcass transport rules, feeding bans, education) than broad surveillance.Hunter participation: “Free for all” testing can overwhelm systems unless tightly managed, and many states have learned that targeted programs get better data per dollar.So NYS is focusing its efforts on where they see it mattering most: high-risk areas, roadkills, sick/dead deer, and zones near known outbreaks—because testing every hunter-harvested deer statewide would be extremely expensive for relatively low yield in a state with no established CWD population.More info on NY's response, as well as what's happening nationally:The NYS Department of Environmental Conservation's page on CWD (including information on how you can help, scroll down to “Members of the Public”)CWD in Captive Deer: DEC's Response in 2024Chronic Wasting Disease Detection and Management: What Has Worked and What Has Not?
