She shares her journey from being a strong athlete growing up to her struggles with weight that began during a two-year missions trip in South America, and continued as she experienced post-pregnancy weight gain. Sonja began intermittent fasting in 2020, and had initial success, losing 20 pounds, but the challenges that arose during a family crisis led her to stop fasting consistently for a significant period of time. Finally, in early 2025, she felt ready to resume the IF lifestyle.Sonja talks about the benefits she experienced with intermittent fasting, such as having more energy, fewer UTIs, and improved dental health. Despite the setbacks, when Sonja found her way back to intermittent fasting in early 2025, she rediscovered the numerous non-scale victories that her body greatly enjoyed. She emphasizes how Alternate Day Fasting (ADF) helped her break through a weight loss plateau, offering her greater flexibility and satisfaction by accommodating her social life better.For new intermittent fasters, Sonja advises tapping into resources like Gin's podcasts and books to stay informed and motivated. She highlights the importance of experimenting with different fasting methods to find what fits both physically and emotionally. Most importantly, she encourages listeners to be kind and gracious with themselves during challenging times, knowing that intermittent fasting is a sustainable and flexible lifestyle change that can always be resumed when they're ready.Get Gin's books at: https://www.ginstephens.com/get-the-books.html.

As AI tools race into every corner of software development, a simple question keeps coming back to me. Will AI replace human testers, or will it force us to rethink what great testing looks like in the first place. In today's conversation, I talk with Santiago Komadina Geffroy, a Software Engineer at Jalasoft and an educator with Jala University, about what changes, what stays, and what teams should do next. Santiago shares how his day job and teaching intersect. He points to a gap he sees often. Engineers are experimenting with large language models without fully understanding how they work, which leads to overconfidence and avoidable rework. He argues for clearer interaction patterns between tools and people. Think less about magic prompts and more about protocols, context sharing, and agent to agent collaboration. That shift frees testers to do the thinking work that AI still struggles with, from exploratory testing and usability judgment to spotting the weird edge cases that only show up when real humans use real products. We also get into bias and ethics. AI is only as fair as the data it learns from, and that matters in healthcare, finance, and hiring where a mistake can carry life changing consequences. Santiago calls for stronger education around data quality, authorship, privacy, and environmental impact, not as a side note but as part of how engineers are trained. He believes governance helps teams move faster with fewer regrets when they take AI into production. Security sits in the mix too. Many AI tools need deep system access. If compromised, they can distort results or leak sensitive information. Santiago is candid about the limits of any single safeguard. He recommends a culture of shared responsibility where engineers understand when to call in security specialists and how to design workflows that keep humans in the loop for consequential decisions. We close with what Jalasoft has learned from building with AI inside a nearshore model in South America. More thinking time. Smaller, controllable scopes. Clear lines between routine automation and human judgment. The headline is simple. AI will change testing. Human testers will remain at the heart of quality.

In this second part of our conversation with Oliver Treviso, we explore his experiences in the final two countries of Colombia and Venezuela. By all accounts, Colombia and Venezuela were believed to be the most risky countries to hike the Andes in, but what did Oliver experience? And so, Richard McColl of the Colombia Calling podcast continues his conversation with Ollie Treviso, who shares his incredible journey hiking through South America. They discuss Oliver's experiences in Ecuador, the challenges he faced while crossing into Colombia, and the kindness he encountered along the way. Oliver reflects on the dangers he encountered, including a mugging, and the resilience he found in the people he met. The conversation also touches on his experiences in Venezuela, where he was welcomed warmly and even invited to speak at universities. As Oliver contemplates his future adventures, he emphasizes the importance of storytelling and the lessons learned from his journey.

Today's podcast kicks off a new series, running through November 3rd, and concludes with Dr. Karl Lehman. This 6-week series focuses on identity, attachment, wounds, lament, and securing our attachment in Christ, not your marriage.In this episode of Neurodiverse Christian Couples, hosts Dan and Stephanie welcome back neurotheologian Dr. Jim Wilder for a deep dive into identity formation, attachment, and the brain, especially as it relates to neurodiverse individuals and marriages. Dr. Wilder explains how our identity develops from infancy through adolescence, highlighting key brain regions (like the orbital prefrontal cortex, corpus callosum, and mirror neuron system) and how they contribute to our sense of self and our ability to connect with others. He discusses what happens when these developmental processes are disrupted or different — as is often the case in autism, ADHD, and other developmental differences — and how this affects relationships, emotional regulation, and group belonging. The conversation explores: How attachment and caregiver attunement in infancy shape emotional identity.Why the adolescent brain shifts focus from Who am I? to Who are my people? — and how failing to find a “herd” can impact identity.The biological and neurological reasons why change (especially in neurodiverse individuals) takes time, encouragement, and community rather than just “trying harder.”Why accountability in the traditional sense often fails, and how a supportive group offering healthy correction is much more effective for growth and transformation.How autism impacts the identity center of the brain and its implications for marital relationships This episode sets the stage for a series on identity and attachment, touching on grief, resilience, and sacred attachment, with upcoming guests offering complementary perspectives. If you're curious about how brain development, faith, and neurodiversity intersect — especially within marriage and community — this episode provides both insight and encouragement. About Our Guest Dr. Jim Wilder:Dr. Jim Wilder has been training leaders and counselors for over 30 years on five continents. Jim grew up in South America and is bilingual (English/Spanish). He is the author of nineteen books with a strong focus on maturity and relational skills. Dr. Wilder has served as a guest lecturer at Fuller Seminary, Biola, Talbot Seminary, Point Loma University, Montreat College, Tyndale Seminary, and elsewhere. Dr. Jim Wilder has extensive clinical counseling experience and is the chief neurotheologian of Life Model Works, a nonprofit working at the intersection of theology and brain science. Life Model Works builds on the fifty-year legacy of Shepherd's House, which began in the 1970s as a ministry to street kids in Van Nuys, California. In those early days, Jim worked with the team of volunteer counselors and Fuller Seminary faculty to build a counseling center to help broken people recover from negative habits, addictions, abuse, and trauma. By the 1990s, Jim was Assistant Director and later Executive Director of Shepherd's House, helping hundreds of pastors and churches with their toughest counseling cases. Jim was intimately involved in 1987 when Shepherd's House conducted a careful review of why some people with the same level of trauma and treatment recovered, but others did not. The results of this case-by-case study became The Life Model, a new recovery model. The Life Model study findings were published in Living from the Heart Jesus Gave You.

PREVIEW-HALLIDAY-DRAKE-10.mp3. Otherlands: A Journey Through Earth's Extinct Worlds. Thomas Halliday. This excerpt features John Batchelor speaking with Thomas Halliday, the author of Otherlands: A Journey Through Earth's Extinct Worlds. Halliday describes the profound geological event that caused Antarctica to become ice-covered. Previously, the Antarctic Peninsula—including Seymour Island—was connected to Patagonia, maintaining a temperate climate with forests and diverse populations of mammals and birds. The cooling process began when the peninsula moved away from South America, opening the Drake Passage. This opening allowed the circumpolar current to form, isolating the weather system of the South Pole and preventing the exchange of warmth from South America and the tropics. This shift led to the emergence and spread of glaciers across the continent, a process that unfolded over tens of millions of years.
HEADLINE: The Zanclean Flood, Dwarfed Island Life, and Transatlantic Rafting in the Miocene and Oligocene BOOK TITLE: Other Lands, a journey through Earth's Extinct Worlds GUEST AUTHOR NAME: Thomas Halliday 200-WORD SUMMARY: This segment covers the Miocene and Oligocene eras. In the Miocene (5.3 million years ago), the Mediterranean basin dried out after losing its connection to the Atlantic at the Straits of Gibraltar. This basin was dramatically refilled during the spectacular Zanclean Flood, caused by an earthquake that allowed the Atlantic to surge back, resulting in a mile-high waterfall near Sicily. Before the flood, Gargano Island (now a peninsula in Italy) was home to dwarf fauna. Fossils recovered from its caves include Hoplomeryx, a deer-like organism characterized by saber teeth and five horns. Its main predators were giant birds, such as eagles and buzzard relatives. Moving to the Oligocene(33 million years ago), the discussion centers on South America as an island continent and the spread of grasslands. Grasses defended themselves with silica crystals, necessitating the evolution of specialized grazers with continually growing teeth, like early horses. A key evolutionary event was transoceanic rafting. African monkeys, rodents, freshwater fish, and amphibians crossed the Atlantic Ocean—which was two-thirds its modern width—on structurally sound fragments of land that detached during storms.

Now that we're worried about crowds and overtourism, the idea of visiting lesser-known places is a real winner. I've always loved to go to the places that aren't listed frequently on travellers' itineraries and maintain that many of the best experiences happen there - and the stories from the three guests in this episode seem to confirm that. First up, I chat with Jonny Wright about his love of going to places nobody knows about. He explains an experience in eastern Turkey, and the circuitous route he took to end up on a little-known island off the coast of Hiroshima, Japan. Pam Petro is obsessed with Wales - itself not an entirely lesser-known place, though how she ended up there is not a usual way - but it led to an especially intriguing trip around the world visiting all the places where Welsh is spoken, including an unsuspecting part of South America. Finally, Barefoot Backpacker has returned to tell me their tales of visiting Paraguay. I think they are the only person I know to have stories about travelling to Paraguay, and I was thus very intrigued to hear them!

If you've been researching family history for any length of time, you've probably heard someone say, “Well, the trail stops with the immigrant ancestor. Once you hit the ocean, you can't go any further.” This idea is one of the most persistent myths in genealogy. Many people stop at the ancestor who stepped off the ship, resigned to the belief that records from “the old country” are too hard to find, inaccessible, or simply don't exist. At first glance, the myth makes sense. Immigration records can be patchy. Language barriers are intimidating. Foreign archives may seem distant and mysterious. For years, genealogists accepted the idea that you could trace your family back to the arrival in America, Canada, or Australia, and no further. But here's the truth: genealogy doesn't end at the ocean. The ocean is not a wall — it's a bridge. With patience, persistence, and the right tools, you can cross it. Today, countless records from Europe, Africa, Asia, and South America are available in digital form. Archives are more accessible than ever. And local experts around the world are helping researchers trace their families across borders...

Episode 211 of The Adventure Podcast features adventurer Ollie Treviso. Ollie recently completed a 14,000km, 20-month walk along the Andes, from Tierra del Fuego to the Caribbean Sea. In this episode, Ollie opens up about how far he's come - from a rugby-playing teenager abusing steroids and working as an insurance broker, to living in a cave in Gran Canaria, working on farms, and eventually discovering the power of slow, human-paced travel. Matt and Ollie explore his first long-distance walk across the UK, complete with an over-packed rucksack, no tent experience, and a rule never to pay for accommodation, and how these early stumbles laid the foundations for his South American journey. They also talk candidly about grief and loss, why walking feels most meaningful, resilience, identity, and the uneasy balance between adventure, ego, and storytelling.

The Red Line podcast's, Mike Hilliard, re-enters the Garden to discuss some oddities in certain borders. There are exclaves and enclaves throughout the world. Some have been with us so long, they confuse us as to their status as a State or otherwise. They often are points of contention, simmering or active conflicts, and a cause of wars. We go over some of the better known ones. But the fun part, is going over some of the lesser known ones. Although I suppose that depends where you are from.We also review some of the political and military issues in situ.And because Mike knows me so well, he knew we'd stumble into South America and by any pretense, I'd get him to discuss Venezuala. And did not disappoint.
This week Adam Biles speaks with international lawyer and acclaimed author Philippe Sands about his latest book, 38 Londres Street: On Impunity, Pinochet in England and a Nazi in Patagonia. Building on East West Street and The Ratline, Sands traces the remarkable and disturbing links between Nazi officer Walter Rauff—architect of the mobile gas vans—and Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet. Their conversation explores how Rauff escaped Europe, settled in South America, and later became entangled with Pinochet's regime, raising profound questions about memory, complicity, and justice. Sands also shares his personal and professional connection to this history: as a barrister involved in Pinochet's extradition case, and as the descendant of a family decimated by the Holocaust. Blending archival detective work, courtroom drama, and encounters with extraordinary witnesses, Sands reveals the human stories behind the law. This is a gripping, moving, and sometimes unsettling dialogue about the echoes of history and the pursuit of accountability.Buy 38 Londres Street: https://www.shakespeareandcompany.com/books/38-londres-street-2*Philippe Sands was born in London in 1960 and studied Law at the University of Cambridge.

"There are over a billion copper lines worldwide that will disappear in the next five to ten years," says Jake Jacoby, CEO of TELCLOUD. "That's why we built our platform from day one to be global—so our partners can meet this challenge anywhere their customers do business." In the latest episode of the TELCLOUD POTS and Shots Podcast Series, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, sits down with Jacoby to discuss the international scale of the POTS replacement opportunity. While the U.S. still faces the conversion of more than 25 million commercial lines, the global market represents an even larger transformation—with more than a billion lines of legacy copper that must be replaced over the coming decade. Jacoby explains that TELCLOUD's success in the U.S. has driven demand abroad, with active deployments now in Canada, Mexico, Germany, the UK, and additional markets in Europe, Asia-Pacific, and South America. By engineering devices and a platform ready for worldwide deployment, TELCLOUD enables resellers and carriers to address regional regulations, dial plans, and connectivity challenges while still relying on a single global backend. For channel partners, this means two things: Cross-border opportunity – Many customers already operate in both the U.S. and Canada or Mexico, making international coverage a natural next step. Global scalability – TELCLOUD's cloud-native design and partnerships with providers like AWS GovCloud ensure compliance and reliability, even in highly regulated environments. Jacoby also highlighted the broader industry shift away from aging copper toward fiber, wireless, and satellite connectivity, noting that TELCLOUD's mission is to bridge the gap—supporting legacy equipment with modern, resilient infrastructure that delivers long-term reliability. This episode marks the 20th edition of the POTS and Shots series, and Jacoby reflected on the journey so far: “What started as a creative way to talk about technology has become an educational platform that's helping resellers rethink their role in the copper sunset. We're excited for the next 20.” And true to the Shots tradition, Jacoby shared a special tasting from his travels: the Arete Gran Clase Extra Añejo, a four-year-aged tequila brought to Shanghai as a gift for international partners—underscoring the global theme of this episode. Next in the series: “The Hidden Costs of Doing Nothing.” For more information, visit telcloud.com or call 844-900-2270.

Little Leaders: Big Faith From a Small-Town DreamerBrad Silvius, a 1992 graduate of Cedarville University, was shaped by a foundation of faith built in the Village of Cedarville — a faith that continues to guide his life and ministry today. That deep-rooted love for Jesus has laid the groundwork for Little Leaders — a vibrant multimedia platform that helps children grow in biblical truth while building motor skills, learning language, and mastering early education basics.Little Leaders is more than a show — it's a hands-on, faith-filled learning experience. The platform blends colorful animation, music, movement, storytelling, and language lessons. Each piece works together to fully engage kids — mind, body, and spirit. It's fun, interactive, and rooted in Scripture.Brad shared the heart behind the project on the Cedarville Stories podcast. “We just have to be willing and faithful,” he said. “Then we let God grow what He wants to grow.”His whole family is behind the mission. Brad's wife, who has Brazilian roots, brings her business and finance experience from the University of Michigan into the work. Together, they've built Little Leaders not just as a platform — but as a calling.Living in Ann Arbor, Michigan — a hub of global culture — has expanded their vision. The Silvius family has formed close friendships with people from India, Pakistan, and South America. That diversity has shaped the content and widened its reach across cultures and continents.Little Leaders helps children grow through structured play, engaging visuals, and Christ-centered messages. Every video and activity is carefully crafted to raise up the next generation of confident, faith-filled young leaders.Want to see it in action? Visit littleleaders.com and discover how big faith starts with little steps — and a whole lot of love.https://share.transistor.fm/s/1ea4eb78https://youtu.be/zWvpFa0MFfM
Send us a textWhat if the most powerful leadership strategy is the one we've overlooked—love? Not the performative kind that flatters or aims to please, but the unconditional, durable love described in 1 Corinthians 13. We trace a personal turning point back to 1999, when striving for eloquence, polish, and approval gave way to a deeper truth: being grounded in love changes everything—how you lead, how you listen, how you endure.Across this conversation, we unpack why love is patient and kind becomes more than a verse—it's an operating system for teams, families, and communities. We explore the freedom that arrives when inferiority and insecurity loosen their grip, and how that freedom shows up in decision-making, time stewardship, and conflict. We look at the shift from head-to-head exchanges to heart-to-heart connection, why people don't care how much you know until they know how much you care, and how that insight transforms client work, coaching moments, and daily interactions into catalysts for trust. Real stories reveal joy and impact multiplying in practical ways: greeting by name, listening longer, correcting with dignity, and choosing hope when metrics lag.Longevity is the quiet outcome of love-led leadership. Serving nearly five decades in one company becomes possible when purpose is renewed by care—especially for early-career and seasoned professionals who carry untapped potential. This message extends across borders—North America, Europe, Asia, Africa, South America, Oceania —because patience, humility, and hope translate anywhere. If you've been chasing success and still feel restless, consider this reframing: love never fails. Subscribe for more conversations that blend faith, leadership, and practical wisdom, and share this with someone who needs a reminder that care is a competitive advantage. Then tell us: where could you lead with more love today?https://www.seldicompany.com/

WELCOME TO CAMP
I came into this conversation thinking that I'd be chatting about the trivialities of an expedition through South America and I left in a state of absolute disbelief and awe. Oliver Treviso is a fascinating and incredible individual who has become the first person ever to hike the length of the Andes through Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia and Venezuela. In this first episode, we discuss how this adventure came to be...his experience sailing in a catamaran across the Atlantic from the Canary Islands to Brazil, and by all accounts the boat was hardly seaworthy. Then, a love for South America was kindled and before long, he was back on the continent and hiked for 21 months, for 8000 miles and wearing out nine pairs of shoes. The journey was not without its hazards and dangers, but he made it. We'll record a second episode with Oliver to hear more about his time in Colombia and Venezuela, but for the time being, tune in to an amazing story of human kindness and spirit. Oliver is raising money for, Mind Ystradgynlais, a mental health charity and you can donate here: https://minditv.org.uk/walking-the-andes/ The Colombia Briefing is reported by Emily Hart: https://harte.substack.com Support us: https://patreon.com/colombiacalling

The 1970s were a dangerous time in Ireland. An era known as “The Troubles” began in the late 1960s. It was protestants vs. Catholics, British loyalists against Irish unionists, the British army vs. the IRA, the UDA, and other groups… There were bombings, assassinations, guerrilla campaigns, and roaming paramilitary groups, both official and unofficial. It saw civil disobedience, riots, mass protests, segregation, and many, many deaths…more than 3500 people, mostly civilians, died before things calmed down in the late 90s. July 31, 1975, was one of the bloodiest nights in the history of Irish music…in fact, it rivals some of the worst violence against musicians outside hits involving drug cartels in Mexico and South America…and people are still looking for answers. I'm Alan Cross, and this is episode 50 of “Uncharted: Crime and Mayhem in the Music Industry”. This is the story of what became known as “The Miami Showband Massacre”.

Not an ideal start for him. He grew up anti authoritarian. He shot three policemen and committed other crimes after seemingly losing control during July 1974. He could be living near you today.

In the past month, the Trump administration has ordered a trio of military attacks against boats suspected to be transporting drugs from South America to the U.S. However, little information has been released about the people who were killed and whether there were actually any drugs aboard. And some Pentagon officials have raised concerns about the legality of these strikes. WSJ national security reporter Vera Bergengruen and legal correspondent Jess Bravin explore how Washington's approach to combating drug smuggling has changed and the potential pitfalls of these strikes.

Episode 242 is about putting ploughs into the ground, how the rural areas of much of the country was experiencing something of an agricultural revolution. It's rather a fascinating tale, because there are tremendous contradictions in what we're going to talk about this episode. As usual, there we will need to combine a global story with our local story —without doing so would be to stunt our awareness of the strands and tendrils that spread and connect. By the 1850s, Great Britain was manipulating trade and military as well as political power as reciprocating elements. This is a technique adopted by pretty much every empire since before Carthage. Political influence was used so as to extend and secure free exchange, in Britain's case commerce and anglicisation, spread political influence and welded alliances. As Lord Palmerston so aptly pointed out “…It is the business of Government to open and secure the roads for the Merchant…” Antiquated regimes were its enemy and foreign tariffs were its enemy, as anyone knows, the greatest enemy of free trade are tariffs. Empires were broken, the gouty and outdated Chinese, the religion-strangled Turkey, innumerable sheikdoms, sultanates and chieftancies were drawn into the invisible British empire of informal sway. When merchants manage affairs instead of men with guns, it's harder to pin down the essence of power — and also the dangers. The results of this grand vision were not encouraging by the 1870s and the Victorians were less sure of their panacea for both Asia and Africa. Among the ancient and invincibly conservative Confucian and Islamic rulers, no effective westernising collaborators had been found. The Tai'ping rebellion in China and the growing chaos in Muslim states appeared never ending. It was the United States that was gobbling up immigrants — most of Britain's emigrants went there, and the Victorians bought and sold more there than in any other single country. It had dawned on the British political elite that their commerical experience impressed a single portentous fact — that their most successful trading associations with the exception of the Indian Empire, were with Europeans transplanted abroad. They accounted for around 70 percent of all her investment overseas. The white communities in the temperate zones had the outlook and the institutions favourable to progress which the Asiatics and Africans seemed to lack. They offered customers with European tastes and money to spend. Mutual self-interest with whites of their empire meant private business of Great Britain commingled freely with that of Greater Britain and the once-colonial societies of the New World — the Americans and many in South America too. At the same time, the colonists were growing more bitter about Downing Street control and self-government appeared one solution. The aim was to avert the loss of more colonies and more American Wars of independence. So by the 1870s, confederated Canada, responsibly governed Australia and the Cape were regarded as constitutional embodiments of collaboration between British and colonial interests — all working at their best. The number of trading stores in the Transkei quadrupled to a few hundred, and all of this meant that there was a major qualitative shift in the cumsumption patterns of Africans. New permanent wants replaced needs, metal was now preferred to traditionally crafted pots and baskets, the cow-hide kaross was replaced by the Witney blanket, ploughs and all manner of tools flooded into these developing farms. Around South Africa, energy seemed to be surging. Take the highveld for example. The sour veld of the Harrismith district to be precise. Largely used for summer grazing, the farmers here often moved their herds into Natal every autumn. Below the Berg as they put, OnderBerg. Underberg.
Hey, Poison Friends! It is Spooky Season! So let's celebrate with some spookier content, shall we? No trigger warnings this episode for gore or violence or anything too scary. Should any of our episodes this season involve such content, I will say so here in the notes! Today, I want to walk you through a history of curses and provide some examples of such. What is a curse and who came up with the idea? They have been around for as long as people have lived among each other and have provided them with an explanation of misfortune or even used to process mislaid justice. We are going way back, to Assyrian Kings, the ancient Greeks & Romans, ancient Egypt, religious works of Judaism, Islam, and Christianity, medieval Europe, colonial America, and other parts of the world such as Asian countries, Central and South America, etc. There was a lot to cover and I did my best to crunch it all in here along with some well known curses that have survived to modern times, like that of the evil eye. Y'all know I could not just leave it there. We are discussing some examples of curses that may befall those who steal from the land itself. Pele's curse concerning the history and natural resources of Hawaii being disrespected is one such example. Another is that of the Petrified Forest in Arizona. Note: it is illegal to steal/take any piece of a national forest away. Both of these historic and beautiful places have seen the effects of these curses in the form of letters and the return of rocks and sand and wood. These letters tell stories of misery and even tragedy that those who took these artifacts experienced after the fact. The senders express hope that by apologizing and sending the pieces back, their luck may change. If you really need that souvenir in the form of a piece of the land, be warned, because it may be the curse that gets you. We'll cover some examples of plants associated with various curses as well, so come along and learn something spooky with us. Thank you to all of our listeners and supporters!

Steven Yates explains how we've seen a gradual structural move back to a fundamentally feudal system (technofeudalism/technocracy) in which Big Tech overlords, owners of cloud capital, have replaced landed gentry. And if we till the soil of its platforms for a fee, we're cloud serfs or cloud proles. He also discusses expatriating to Latin America.

He taught for more than 15 years total at several colleges and universities in the Southeastern U.S. He has authored three books, more than 20 articles, numerous book reviews, and review essays in academic journals and anthologies. Refused tenure and unable to obtain full-time academic employment (and with an increasing number of very fundamental philosophical essays refused publication in journals), he turned to alternative platforms and heretical notions, including about academia itself. In 2012, he moved to Chile. He married a Chilean national in 2014. Among his discoveries in South America: many of the problems in the U.S. are problems everywhere, because human nature is the same everywhere. He has a Patreon.com page.
