It's a quick but full episode this week where we cover, Black Bag, Adolescence, Long Bright River, and Stillwater. Kevin immediately thrust Lauren into the limelight, as the she just finished Black Bag not long before recording. It's sexy(ish) spy thriller(ish) starring Michael Fassbender and Cate Blanchett. It's a hair less sexy and exciting than Lauren was expecting, but it was an overall solid film. Next up, Kevin talk about one of his favorite show in recent years, Adolescence on Netflix. It's a fascinating show from a technical standpoint, as every episode is done in a single take. The amount of work that went into just that is staggering! Add to that some amazing performances and a fantastic story, and this show should be very popular come award season. Note that the story is not a mind bender. It won't trick you with plot twists or keep you guessing. It is all about emotion and delivers in spades. Lauren takes over the rest of the show, as Kevin didn't watch much this week. So her next watch is Long Bright River on Peacock. It stars Amanda Seyfried as a police officer with a unique attachment to the impoverished women in her area. The story takes a turn as her sister goes missing, also. Lauren hasn't finished the series and isn't necessarily blown away by it, but she's interested enough to finish, so there's that... The show closes with Lauren taking us back in time to 2021 with the film Stillwater. If you're familiar with the Amanda Knox story, this film will make a lot of sense. A 20-something woman in France is arrested for and convicted of murder. Her father, a blue collar man with a checkered history in Stillwater, Oklahoma, travels to France to be by her side and help with her defense. It's a solid drama and probably Lauren's favorite pick of the week. As always, thank you for watching. If you haven't already, don't forget to Like & Subscribe. We love new viewers! Also, leave us comments and let is know how we are doing and what we can be doing better. Enjoy the episode and have a great week!

The City of Stillwater is planning to build a temporary facility to remove PFAS, also known as forever chemicals, from one of its wells. That well and one other were shut off two years ago after showing unsafe levels of the chemicals, according to state health guidelines. Stillwater is not alone in facing problems with PFAS in drinking water, and while it has secured some funding to do so, the city was one of many around the country that recently missed out on money from Congress. In March's bill to keep the government running, Congress did not fund special infrastructure projects, or earmarks. Stillwater Mayor Ted Kozlowski joined MPR News host Nina Moini to talk about the city's next steps.

Is this the best Bar-B-Que sauce in the world? Today we are discussing Head Country Bar-B-Q Sauce in Ponca City, Oklahoma. Donovan Fred Head, known as "Uncle Bud, was a Navy cook in World War II. He tinkered with the recipe and soon Uncle Bud had perfected the recipe and eventually started selling his sauce in local feed stores. Danny Head bought the family recipe from Uncle Bud and founded Head Country Food Products Inc in 1977. Today they still have their orignal recipe and still made with the same ingredients. Danny's BBQ Head Quarters—Ponca City - In 1945, Donovan 'Uncle Bud' Head had just returned to his Oklahoma home from serving as a cook on a naval destroyer in WWII. He brought with him recipes he whipped up aboard the ship using simple, wholesome ingredients. One of the recipes was a barbecue sauce that was an instant hit with everyone who tried it, thus Head Country Bar-B-Q sauce was born. The folks at Danny's BBQ Head Quarters in Ponca City put just as much thought into how the meat is prepared, so go expecting slow-cooked meats served by themselves or as a sandwich with a side of pickles and onions. Afterward, take home a bottle of Head Country, which comes in original, hickory smoke or hot. Ponca City settlers claimed townsite certificates during the Cherokee Outlet Opening, and oil made it into the thriving cultural center it is today. Honor the brave women who settled Oklahoma at the Pioneer Woman Museum & Statue. Tour the Italian "Palace on the Prairie," the Marland Mansion & Estate, built by oil baron and Governor E.W. Marland. Dig deep into Ponca City's oil history at the Conoco Museum, honor Native roots at the Standing Bear Park, Museum & Education Center or go green with a tour of the Lester & Mary Cann Memorial Botanical Gardens.

#740 Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/740 Presented by: Northern Rockies Adventures In this episode, we dive into the remote and wild fishing experiences offered by Northern Rockies Adventures with Daniel Schildknecht, Phil Rowley, and Lance Egan. From chasing Northern Pike, Lake Trout, and Grayling to navigating untouched rivers by float plane, this trip had it all. Plus, we get an inside look at an upcoming hosted trip that might be your next dream adventure. Strap in for big fish, wild landscapes, and some unforgettable moments on the Wet Fly Swing Podcast! Episode Chapters with Phil, Daniel, and Lance on Northern Rockies Whitefish, Grayling, and the Predator-Prey Game The lakes and rivers of the Northern Rockies are home to a mix of fish, each playing a role in the ecosystem. While whitefish and grayling might not be top targets for every angler, they tell an important story about these waters. Key Takeaways: - Whitefish = Healthy Water – Mountain whitefish are a sign of clean, untouched rivers. If they're thriving, so is the fishery. - Grayling on Dry Flies – These fish love rising to dries but don't always have the best aim. Be ready for multiple takes! - Whitefish = Food Source – Big rainbows, bull trout, and lake trout feast on whitefish. Schools of them hugging the bank means predators are nearby. Some of the best fishing moments happen when you're not just casting but observing. In these remote waters, every fish has a role, and understanding them can make you a better angler. Crystal Clear Lakes and a Short but Intense Fishing Season The lakes of the Northern Rockies aren't like most others. They are deep, clear, and packed with life. With diverse landscapes and rich water quality, these lakes create the perfect habitat for big, healthy fish. What Makes These Lakes Special? - Ultra-clear water – No murky lakes here, just pristine, see-through waters. - Rich food sources – Scuds (freshwater shrimp), snails, and chironomids fuel big trout. - Diverse habitats – From deep, rocky basins to shallow, weedy shoals, every lake is different. The fishing season here is short but intense. If you're after prime stillwater action, aim for June to September. For big pike, cooler water in June or late August is best. And if dry flies are your thing, mid-July to mid-August is peak time. Chasing Lake Trout: Timing, Depth, and Surprise Encounters Lake trout can be tricky on the fly, but with the right approach, they're not impossible. These fish love cold, oxygen-rich water, so they move deep when temperatures rise. But sometimes, they show up in the last place you'd expect. Flying into the Wild: The Ultimate Fishing Access Getting to Northern Rockies Adventures isn't just a journey—it's part of the experience. Float planes take anglers deep into untouched waters, where the only crowds are schools of hungry fish. The Bush Planes That Get You There - Caravan – A “rocket ship on floats,” built for speed and comfort. - Turbo Otter – A powerhouse that carries up to nine anglers in style. - King Air 300 – The luxury ride from Vancouver, flying right over the Rockies. Every flight brings jaw-dropping views, from rugged peaks to remote lakes. And with bubble windows, you're never missing a moment. No crowded boats, no long drives—just you, a plane, and the adventure ahead. Phil and Tim Flagler are teaming up for a special hosted trip at Northern Rockies Adventures from August 10–17, 2025. This trip offers a mix of stillwater and river fishing, with access to some of the wildest and most untouched fisheries in North America. What to Expect - Four flyouts to remote waters, targeting multiple species. - Guided and hosted fishing with Phil, Tim, and the Northern Rockies team. - Pre-trip Zoom sessions to go over logistics, gear, and flies. - Lodge accommodations with incredible food and views. If you're interested in joining the trip, email Daniel or Phil at daniel@nradventures.com or flycraft@shaw.ca or visit flycraftangling.com. Exploring the Northern Rockies by Float Plane Lance Egan spent an unforgettable week at Northern Rockies Adventures, fishing six out of seven days and staying at the lodge right off the Alaska Highway. The experience combined world-class fishing, comfortable accommodations, and breathtaking views. Lance landed rainbows, bull trout, grayling, northern pike, and lake trout while exploring the remote waters. With 132 million hectares of wilderness and 80+ fishing locations, the possibilities were endless. Even after a week, it felt like they had only scratched the surface. One of the biggest highlights? Flying in a float plane over untouched rivers and hidden lakes, picking the perfect spot to fish. With so many unexplored waters, it's an angler's paradise waiting to be discovered. A Fly Fishing Playground: Dry Flies, Streamers, and Bull Trout Lance mixed it up on this trip, fishing dry flies, streamers, and even topwater poppers. While dry fly fishing was his go-to, he also found success stripping streamers for bull trout, pike, and lake trout. Bull Trout: Targeted near drop-offs and inlets, using streamers like white sparkle minnows. - Pike: Explosive topwater eats on poppers and divers in shallow, clear lakes. - Grayling & Rainbows: Dry flies were the ticket, with spot-and-stalk fishing making for exciting takes.

Between being one of the most prolific YouTubers in the guitar sphere, working as a trusted hired gun, and creating his own original music, including last year's EP The Early Days, he's an avid cyclist. Just a week before we met up with Rhett at Eastside Bowl in Madison, Tennessee, for this Rig Rundown, he was slated to ride a 100-mile race in Stillwater, Oklahoma. Those plans were dashed when 70-mile-an-hour winds stoked a wildfire near town and burned just over 26,000 acres. But the show must go on: The next night, Shull played a gig in town, a special release for people reeling from a brutal natural disaster.Shull's a certified gear aficionado and tone wizard, so PG's Chris Kies headed to Eastside Bowl to have him walk us through his current live rig.

Michael Rowley, President and CEO of Stillwater Critical Minerals (TSX.V: PGE – OTCQB: PGEZF), joins me to review the recent news from last week's Executive Order on critical minerals from the white house putting their flagship Stillwater West Ni-PGE-Cu-Co + Au project in Montana into focus for domestic development. This Executive Order signed by United States President Donald J. Trump on March 20, 2025, titled "Immediate Measures to Increase American Mineral Production," invokes emergency powers to prioritize and accelerate domestic production of minerals listed as critical to the United States, with the objective of reducing reliance on imports. This Executive Order is the government's strongest action yet towards restoring America's domestic mining industry and is intended to counter the overwhelming control that other countries have over the supply of a number of minerals listed as critical to the economic and national security interests of the United States. The order describes funding initiatives for domestic mining projects and calls for accelerated permitting and clarifications to the Mining Act, among other actions. Mike outlines that their Stillwater West Project is a very large polymetallic resource with a substantial copper inventory and the largest nickel project in an active U.S. mining district, in addition to palladium, platinum, rhodium, chromium, cobalt, and gold plus as yet unquantified amounts of ruthenium and iridium. Overall, Stillwater West is uniquely positioned to become a primary source of nine commodities now listed as critical given our location immediately adjacent to Sibanye-Stillwater's operating mine complex in a historic American mining district where the production of critical minerals dates back to the 1880s. With regards to this year's exploration focus, Mike shares that multiple large-scale magmatic sulphide targets generated from a property-wide MobileMTm magneto-telluric ("MMT") geophysical survey were completed in late 2024 by Expert Geophysics Limited at Stillwater West. Data from the 2024 MMT survey was processed and incorporated into the Company's 3D geological model of the lower Stillwater Igneous Complex to prioritize targets with a focus on expanding current mid-grade and high-grade mineral resources. There will be about 6,000 meters of drilling this year focused on those higher-grade targets, with plans to still update the resources from last year's drilling in 2025, and then further update the resource again with 2025's drilling and move towards a Preliminary Economic Assessment in early 2026. If you have any questions for Mike regarding Stillwater Critical Minerals, then please email me at Shad@kereport.com. Click here to follow the latest news from Stillwater Critical Minerals

Last week I had the pleasure of speaking to Oklahoma State University entrepreneurship students in a class called The First 100 Days of Launching a Business. Nothing energizes me more than being in Stillwater on campus with smart students ready to take on the world! The first 100 days of a startup are critical for setting a strong foundation. Here's a few of the tips I shared with these students: 1. First you need to have a clear Vision & Mission for your business. I can't be all about money or you will fizzle out quickly! What is your purpose, what are your core values, and what is your long-term vision? 2. Business Structure Setup– Be sure to register your business with the state by setting up an LLC or corporation and set up a business bank account. 3. Identify Your Target Market – Conduct market research to understand your ideal customer and analyze competitors to differentiate yourself. No money for market research? I get it! Conduct your own research by asking family and friends about your product or service. What do they like? Not like? Is it solving a problem for them? How much would they pay for it? Find out the 10 steps you must take with The First 100 Days: Your Startup Survival Guide on the latest episode of the DO IT MY WAY Podcast! Not sure where to start with your business idea?

As you may know, The Mid South Gravel was meant to take place last weekend in Stillwater, Oklahoma. However, the event had to be cancelled at the last minute due to a devastating wildfire in the area. Past guest Meg Fisher joins Kathryn this week, freshly home from Stillwater, to talk through the weekend's events. Though Stillwater was spared of any major damage, the neighboring town of Guthrie was hit particularly hard by the fires, and many people there lost everything. Despite the devastation, the gravel community rose to come together on Saturday to show their support for Still water and Guthrie, and demonstrate what is really important about bike racing; people showing up for each other when they need it most.Follow Meg on Instagram @megfisherLearn more about the Navigate Menopause course and community at feistymenopause.com Follow us on Instagram:@girlsgonegravel @feisty_media Girls Gone Gravel Website:https://www.girlsgonegravel.com/ Feisty Media Website:https://livefeisty.com/ Support our Partners:Feisty Girona Gravel Camp: Join us in Girona for an immersive week of exploring on bikes, reflecting, connecting, and setting intentions.

Phil #735 Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/735 Presented By: Four Wheel Campers, Pescador on the Fly, Yellowstone Teton Territory In this episode of The Littoral Zone with Phil Rowley, Tom Jarman, a top competitive fly angler and winner of the 2024 Australian Fly Fishing Championships, breaks down his best strategies, tactics, and flies for fishing Australian lakes and beyond. Episode Chapters with Tom Jarman on Fly Fishing Australian Lakes Tom was born in Melbourne, Australia, but he spent part of his childhood in England, where he first picked up a fishing rod. When his family returned to Australia in 2000, his passion for the sport grew and he got into competitive fly fishing at 15. He later studied environmental science, while spending summers guiding in Tasmania. Now at 31, Tom has built a life around fly fishing—guiding, coaching, and sharing his knowledge with others. Tom started his YouTube channel to showcase the incredible fishing in Victoria. His videos highlight both river and lake fishing. Tom also designed a range of flies with FlyLife Magazine, built specifically for Australia's unique fisheries. The Shrek Fly Tom and Phil dive into the effectiveness of the Shrek fly. Designed by Joe Riley, this fly stands out with its metallic green and gold hues, mimicking Australia's native baitfish. It's so effective that even anglers from the U.S. have adapted it for their own waters. Check out Tom's video tutorial on How To Tie Shrek and see why this fly is a must-have in your box: https://youtu.be/wsoHmpErZMI?si=vNAEzwNVU4UgLdjT Key Tips from Competition Fishing 17:38 - Tom shares what he's learned from competitions that every angler can use: Structure your day to maximize your chances of success. Location is key. Fish aren't everywhere, so focus on finding them. Cover water fast. In a boat, you'd move quickly to locate fish. Apply this same mindset on the bank. Fish key spots. Target windward shores, calm areas, drop-offs, weed beds, and rocky structures. Don't get stuck in one place too long, especially if the fish aren't biting. Gear Tips for Stillwater Fishing Rod Tom swears by a 10-foot rod for Stillwater fishing. It gives him better casting control, helps manage flies near the boat, and allows for longer leaders. Here's what he prefers: 10 ft 6 wt – Tom's all-around choice. 10 ft 7wt – Great for streamers and windy conditions. 10ft 8wt – Helps cast farther in competitions. Tom also likes stiffer rods in windy conditions for quicker hook sets. A strong rod means better control, especially when fish push farther out. Leader Tom keeps things simple when fishing subsurface. Instead of a tapered leader, he uses a level fluorocarbon leader for better contact with his flies. He also uses a beaded fly at the end to help the cast turn over, even in the wind. When fishing dry flies, he switches to a tapered leader to transfer energy smoothly. He trims off the extra thick butt section and the non-tapered tip, then adds a tippet ring before tying on his tippet. Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/735

#729 Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/729 Presented By: Pescador on the Fly, Four Wheel Campers, TroutRoutes Stillwater fishing has always been close to my heart, but it also comes with its fair share of challenges and misconceptions. I'm excited to have Denny Rickards on today's episode because we'll debunk some stillwater fly fishing myths. Denny is one of the most knowledgeable stillwater anglers out there, and he's here to share his step-by-step approach to finding big fish in lakes. By the end of this episode, you'll have a solid framework for what to do (and what not to do) when fishing stillwaters. You're in for a big treat today because you'll learn how to know when fish are moving, when they're not, and when they're feeding. You're also going to find out why you should be casting to the edge of the lake, how to find the exact depth for holding fish, and why fish take on the pause. Show Notes with Denny Rickards on Stillwater Fly Fishing Myths It's been six years since we had Denny on Episode 064, where we covered lakes and the history of stillwater fishing. Today, we're going to do another round, and we'll also talk about some common stillwater fly fishing myths and challenges. Matching the Hatch 03:13 - Denny said many anglers start their day by trying to match what they think the fish are eating. He said this practice of matching the hatch comes from our days when we first started fly fishing on streams and rivers. Denny points out that 90% of a trout's food is below the surface, not on top. Just because a fly isn't working right away doesn't mean it's the wrong one. The real question is, did the fish even see it? Finding Fish on a Lake 07:36 - Denny says there are two things you must figure out first: where the fish are and how deep they are. If you don't, you'll fall into the trial-and-error trap. A common stillwater fly fishing myth is that a fish will hit your fly again if it missed the first time, but Denny's never seen that happen. Instead of wasting casts on the same spot, Denny said to move. The angler who keeps moving will always outfish the one who stays put. The more fresh fish that see your fly, the better your chances. The angler who keeps moving will always outfish the one who stays put. Denny Rickards Where Do Trout Feed? Denny said that no two lakes are the same. But trout feed in only two places where fish feed anywhere in the world: shoreline edges and the top foot of the surface. If the trout are not in any of those two spots, then that means they're under and not feeding. If a trout is deeper than six feet, it's not eating; it's just sitting there like a brick. Some anglers think that because they catch fish at 10 feet, that's where trout are feeding. But that's a stillwater fly fishing myth. Trout move to eat, and they always go where food is most concentrated—shoreline edges and the surface. Here's why: Food gathers in specific areas. Insects emerge from the bottom and stop at the surface. Shoreline edges are loaded with food because that's where the proto plankton and zooplankton live. Big fish don't share space with small ones. They move shallow when there's wind or darkness for cover. 18:47 - Most anglers think fish come up from behind and chase a fly. But that's a myth. Fish hit from the side. If you check where the hook lands, it's almost always in the corner of the mouth. Here's how to take advantage of that: Show them the profile view. Fish moving along the shore want to see the whole fly—head, tail, color, and movement. Don't strip too far. If you pull more than five feet, the fish won't follow. If you hook one, stay put. There's probably more fish nearby. The Truth About Where Trout Go 22:17 - Some say trout move way out deep when the sun gets high. That's a myth. Why would a fish waste all that energy just to come back later? They don't. They move just 8 to 10 feet out, right under where you are! Why Water Temperature Matters Water temperature is the number one thing that moves fish. Spring fishing can be tough in reservoirs because the water chemistry is out of sync. When lakes are drawn down in the fall, nutrients and oxygen levels take time to rebuild. That's why the best fishing often doesn't start until late summer or fall. Here are some key things to remember: In the spring, reservoirs that are drawn down don't fish well. Cold water and low oxygen levels stress fish, making them harder to catch. Fish like a temperature range of 55-62°F for optimal feeding. The top water layers heat up in warmer months, but fish stay at the cooler, oxygen-rich depths. Why Fish Take on the Pause 31:29 - Fish don't always hit when you're pulling. They strike when you pause. Here's why: As you retrieve, your fly moves up in the water. When you pause, it drops. That's when the fish makes its move. But instead of chasing, it simply opens its mouth and sucks the fly in. Denny learned this trick firsthand when he went fishing on Hebgen Lake.

“You can't be someone who shies away from sticking your neck out. I tell our guys: ‘We are trying to win.' I'll say it publicly. I will say it to anybody. Maybe that puts pressure on us. But life is pressure. Athletics is practice for life. You need to figure out how to handle pressure, how to handle stress, how to handle others' expectations, your own expectations, and manage it”.We continue with our office hours episodes as I sit down with Coach Dave Smith, one of the most accomplished coaches in NCAA cross country history and the architect behind Oklahoma State's dominance. Since taking the helm in Stillwater, Coach Smith has built a powerhouse program leading Oklahoma State to four NCAA men's cross country titles and a Big 12 record of 13 conference championships. He guided the Cowboys to a historic team performance at the 2023 NCAA Cross Country Championship, scoring just 49 points, the third lowest winning total since 2000.Coach Smith's accolades don't stop there. He's a four-time National Coach of the Year, a Team USA coach on the world stage, and a leader of a program that has consistently produced NCAA champions, All-Americans, and world-class athletes like German Fernandez, Taylor Roe, Alex Maier, and Sinclaire Johnson.In today's episode, we dive into his journey from athlete to coach, how he's cultivated a championship driven environment at Oklahoma State, what's next for his program, his athletes, and his take on the future of distance running in the NCAA and beyond.Host: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavez on Instagram Guest: Dave Smith | @coach_dave_smith on Instagram SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Big name sodas are rolling out bold new flavors in 2025, but the real buzz is happening in the prebiotic pop aisle.

#725 Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/725 Presented By: Grand Teton Fly Fishing, FishHound Expeditions, Heated Core In part one of How Lakes Work, Brian and Phil explained lake classification and the key zones we should focus on. In part two, we'll explore how lakes change throughout the seasons. Brian will break down what happens each season, how it impacts fish behavior, and where you should be fishing. Understanding these will help you know where to fish and when. The Seasons of a Lake: How They Impact Fishing Fall 06:15 - As temperatures drop, lakes go through fall turnover. This happens when surface water cools to match the temperature of deeper water. Wind aids in mixing the lake from top to bottom, spreading oxygen. The mixing stirs up debris and gases like methane. This makes conditions less ideal for fish. Fall happens in three stages: early, mid, and late. As the water gets colder, fish move into shallower areas to feed. In early fall, they stay in deeper water (15 -18 feet). By mid-fall, they move up to 10-12 feet. In late fall, they're in the shallows (5 -7 feet). https://www.youtube.com/live/pid95BqAhwY?si=i2Lb2in7OPFebdj1 How Often Do Lakes Turn Over? Lake turnover only occurs in the fall and spring, when water temperatures even out from top to bottom. But not all lakes turn over. Sometimes, lakes look murky for other reasons, like the wind stirring up sediment or the rain washing in dirty water. Brian says shallow lakes mix all year and never fully stratify. Winter 14:04 - In winter, oxygen levels drop upward from the bottom of the lake due to anaerobic decomposition occurring at the bottom. All the plants that grew during the open water season start dying since they can't photosynthesize. As they decay, they use up oxygen from the water. What causes winter kill? 17:08 - Winter kill could happen early, mid-winter, or even days before the ice comes off. As winter goes on, the oxygen-poor zone in the lake keeps growing until it reaches just below the ice. When there's not enough oxygen left, fish suffocate and die. Some lakes lose 100% of their fish, while others have partial kills where bigger fish die first. In some cases, fish survive by finding oxygen-rich spots, like areas with underground springs. Lake Aeration 19:52 - Aeration is a tool to try to prevent a winter kill, but it is not a hundred percent guarantee of bringing a lake through. To aerate a lake, it needs to be at least 25 to 30 feet in depth. There are different types of aeration: Surface-mounted aerators are the simplest type with a submersible pump hanging under a float. The pump is two to three feet below the surface, and the propeller is pulling water up to the surface and then spraying it up, so there's an exchange of oxygen that's being brought up. Surface aerators are relatively inexpensive but don't always guarantee the lake will be saved. Another typical aeration technology is to pump air from a compressor on land through some rubber hose to a diffuser anchored below a big float. The air from the hose is pushed through a micro-pored ceramic diffuser. As the tiny bubbles rise, they create a current and add oxygen to the water. Aeration is more of a last-resort effort to slow down lakes' natural aging process, known as eutrophication. Spring 26:26 - When the ice melts off a lake, the water doesn't mix right away. The top layer is colder, while the deeper water is warmer because of plant decay over winter. Fish stay near the surface, just like they did under the ice. The surface warms over the next few weeks until it matches the bottom temperature. Then, a strong wind can mix everything up in a process called spring turnover. Summer 34:55 - In summer, lakes form a barrier called the thermocline. This is where warm water meets cold water, usually around 5 to 8 meters deep. Wind can't mix the water below it, so oxygen levels drop in deeper areas. Trouts stay just above the thermocline, where the water is cool and has enough oxygen.
