Podcasts about Survival

Former NYPD Detective Kristina Brownlee joins "Mind Over Murder" podcast co-hosts Bill Thomas and Kristin Dilley to discuss her new book "And Then Came the Blues: My Story of Survival on Both Sides of the Badge." The book tells the story of Katrina's survival after her fiance tried to kill her, leaving her lying bleeding with 10 bullets in her body, her decision to push back against domestic violence by joining the NYPD, rising to the rank of detective, and her inspiring creation of "Young Ladies of Our Future," a support group for at risk young women.  This bonus episode of "Mind Over Murder" originally ran on August 18, 2025And Then Came the Blues: My Story of Survival on Both Sides of the Badgehttps://www.akashicbooks.com/catalog/and-then-came-the-blues/Young Ladies of Our Futurehttps://youngladiesofourfuture.com/WTKR News 3: One year after development in Colonial Parkway Murders, where do things stand?https://www.wtkr.com/news/in-the-community/historic-triangle/one-year-after-development-in-colonial-parkway-murders-where-do-things-standWon't you help the Mind Over Murder podcast increase our visibility and shine the spotlight on the "Colonial Parkway Murders" and other unsolved cases?

On this episode of Unsupervised Learning, Razib again talks to George Washington University archaeologist Eric Cline. The author of 1177 B.C. - The Year Civilization Collapsed and After 1177 B.C. - The Survival of Civilizations, Cline has a new book out, Love, War, and Diplomacy: The Discovery of the Amarna Letters and the Bronze Age World They Revealed. While 1177 B.C. closed with the end of the first global civilization, that of the Eastern Mediterranean at the end of the Bronze Age, and After 1177 B.C. tells the story of those who picked up the pieces, Love, War, and Diplomacy puts the spotlight on the Late Bronze Age at its peak. Razib and Cline discuss the two major threads in Love, War, and Diplomacy: the decipherment of cuneiform and the emergence of the field of Assyriology, and the diplomatic world of Bronze Age Great Powers. Cline addresses the reality that 19th-century archaeology was not an idealized enterprise, and scholars had to compete with treasure hunters, and negotiate difficult nationalist sensitivities. He also explains how they deciphered cuneiform decades after hieroglyphs, providing an alternative view of the earliest antiquity. The discussion then focuses on the intricate and tense relationship between Egypt, Assyria, the Hittites, and the Mitanni. Cline also highlights the reality that the Amarna Letters also shed light on the bickering between the petty states of the Levant and their relationship to their hegemon, Egypt.

Hi Nurse friend, What if you made this the year of REST. What if you looked at the new year as an opportunity to come out of survival mode. Nursing trains us to survive. Push through. Power on. Handle it. Keep going. And while survival may get you through a shift, it is not meant to be your way of life. God did not create you to live in constant urgency. He created you for peace. Survival mode keeps your nervous system on high alert. It tells your body that danger is everywhere. That slowing down isn't safe. That rest can wait. Rest is not a reward for finishing everything. Rest is an invitation. And choosing rest doesn't mean you stop caring. It means you stop abandoning yourself and actually care for you.  So today's breath prayer is simple — and powerful. It's based on the verse.... “He makes me lie down in green pastures; He restores my soul.” — Psalm 23:2–3 Let's take one deep inhale… And a long, slow exhale. Inhale peace… Exhale tension. 3 min : Inhale: I choose rest. Exhale: Not survival. Press play on this episode and breathe with me.  Shalom Shalom,  Xx, Shan  ……CONNECT…… Are you in burnout or just stressed??  Take the Free QUIZ

Some stories don't fit neatly into a redemption arc. Melvin Cole's is one of them.On the latest episode of Drive By with Sam Coates, Cole, founder of PURE Academy in Memphis, shares a raw, unpolished account of growing up in extreme poverty, entering the drug trade at age 11, surviving gun violence and ultimately choosing a radically different path. Raised by a heroin-addicted grandmother in South Memphis, Cole lost his sister as a toddler due to a medical misdiagnosis, experienced childhood sexual abuse and became a father at just 14. Survival wasn't a philosophy: it was daily reality.Football once offered a way out. Cole earned a college scholarship and had NFL aspirations, until a drug deal gone wrong left him shot in the head and back. What followed was prison, where witnessing a brutal assault became a spiritual breaking point. In a moment of desperation, Cole made a promise: if he survived, he would dedicate his life to saving young men headed down the same road.When he was released after serving time for cocaine trafficking, Cole dug up more than $500,000 he had buried during his time dealing drugs, money he once saw as a retirement plan. Instead of returning to the streets, he used it to build PURE Academy, a year-round boarding school for at-risk Black boys in Memphis that focuses on discipline, structure, emotional intelligence, agriculture, academics and faith.Today, PURE Academy serves 61 students on full scholarship, operates on a $3.7 million budget and boasts an 83% college matriculation rate. Cole is candid about the challenges that remain — the temptation of his former life, frustrations with nonprofit systems and the emotional toll of leadership. But his mission is clear: remove boys from environments that trap them in cycles of poverty and give them the tools to build something better.This episode isn't polished inspiration. It's an honest conversation about trauma, responsibility, faith and what it actually takes to change outcomes: not just for individuals, but for communities.Episode Highlights“I Started Selling Drugs at 11 — Not to Rebel, But to Survive”Cole explains how poverty and fatherhood at 14 pushed him into the drug trade as a calculated business decision, not teenage rebellion.The Moment Prison Changed EverythingWitnessing a violent assault behind bars led to a desperate prayer and a life-altering promise that would shape PURE Academy's mission.Burying $500K — Then Digging It Up for a SchoolThe drug money Cole once viewed as his future became the seed funding for a boarding school instead of a return to crime.Inside PURE Academy's Daily DisciplineFrom 6 a.m. workouts and meditation to academics and agriculture, Cole breaks down how structure, not charity, changes lives.“You Feed One of Two Wolves”Cole speaks openly about the ongoing internal battle between his past and present, including why success doesn't erase temptation — but purpose keeps him grounded.

JJ French has lived the full arc of American heavy metal — from club-level survival to global legacy. As guitarist, co-founder, and longtime strategist behind Twisted Sister, JJ French reflects on what it actually takes to last 50 years in a business designed to burn artists out. This is not a nostalgia interview. It is a candid conversation about discipline, reinvention, timing, and truth. JJ discusses the early definition of success, why the UK embraced Twisted Sister before the U.S., the cultural divide between punk and metal at CBGB, the PMRC hearings and their real-world consequences, lineup decisions for the current era, and why the band is returning in 2026 for select 50th-anniversary performances. The conversation also covers milestone performances — including post-9/11 New York City shows, Sweden Rock 2022, and the Morristown Twisted Christmas concert — along with reflections on legacy, music licensing, health, and perspective earned the hard way. Chapters are included for easy navigation.   CHAPTER MARKS 02:59 – Did You Ever Expect Twisted Sister to Last 50 Years? 04:03 – What “Success” Really Meant in the Early Years 06:00 – When the Band Shifted from Survival to the Long Game 12:12 – Was the Live Album Recorded at That Legendary Show? 13:09 – Why the UK Embraced Twisted Sister Before the U.S. 14:31 – Why Twisted Sister Was Never Accepted at CBGB 19:22 – Why the 2026 Twisted Sister 50th Anniversary Shows Are Happening 21:25 – Choosing the Lineup: Joey Franco & Russell Zuto Explained 22:15 – Why Mark Mendoza Isn't Part of This Version 23:10 – Setlists Today: Deep Cuts or Greatest Hits? 29:57 – Why the Rochester Show Was Recorded for King Biscuit Flour Hour 33:00 – Reflections on 9/11 NYC, Sweden Rock 2022 & the Final U.S. Christmas Show 35:17 – PMRC 40 Years Later: JJ French Looks Back 38:09 – Are “We're Not Gonna Take It” & “I Wanna Rock” the Most Licensed Metal Songs? 39:22 – What JJ French Hopes This Tour Adds to the Legacy   LINKS Official Twisted Sister Website https://twistedsister.com JJ French Official Website https://www.jayjayfrench.com Metal Mayhem ROC https://www.metalmayhemroc.com Learn more about your ad choices.

In this powerful episode of The Birth Trauma Mama Podcast, Kayleigh is joined by Alex, a mom of two and congenital heart disease survivor, who shares her journey through two high-risk pregnancies and two traumatic births.Alex opens up about living with complex congenital heart defects, undergoing open-heart surgery as an infant, and entering pregnancy knowing she would always be medically high-risk. Despite meticulous care and expert providers, both pregnancies took sudden, life-threatening turns, illustrating how trauma can exist even when everything is “managed well.”This episode explores the fear, grief, and lasting impact of emergency medical decisions, general anesthesia during birth, NICU life, and the heartbreak of realizing a redemptive birth may never come.In this episode, we discuss:

You ever go on a field trip at school and every time you look over your shoulder, there's a teacher or chaperone giving you the stink eye? Well try to imagine a field trip where you look up and all your old relatives are waving you into a tunnel of white light. On today's very special milestone 100th Episode:  you'll hear about my school trip to a French strip club; you would learn about a man of God who unintentionally brought a flock of young faithful to meet him; and you will see why I believe riding through a tornado would be somehow less frightening and uncomfortable than the rigors of today's story.And if you had been listening on Patreon… you would learn how a single school trip shaped my entire world view while listening to Chaka Khan; you would hear about some of the worst ways people have finished school trips unexpectedly early; you would learn about the fake US president who died from the largest landslide ever recorded in human history; and you would learn how today's tragedy could have prevented by simple diarrhea. I mentioned the Oregon Trail earlier in this episode, specifically the Oregon Trail video game from the 80s. It was made as a learning tool about decision making and resource management, but it also teaches that you can do everything right and still die. It's an important thing to remember, and beyond that, this episode taught me how one very young brush with death became the moment this show was born – I just didn't know it yet. It's a long story, and I preserved it for Patreon. For them, I also finished the episode with Chaka Khan's “I Feel For You”, to let you judge just how much or how little it feels like the jam you would have wanted to die to.I mention two things at the end of the episode. First I wanted to call out Kala and her husband Ben for kind of exercisming things at Funeral Kazoo and looking to do some cool stuff for future of the show. Ben, being a native of the American Northwest, yelled in my face that he wanted an episode from this land we've never visited. I said, Ben, I'll get you your dead children, watch me go – and here we are. I'm never happy when a story involves the death of children, but almost half of the would-be victims bailed with cramps and gas and all sorts of things and unknowingly saved themselves from making today's story worse. The second thing was that I would post a very short video on Patreon for paid and unpaid members to hopefully see grief in a different way. I'm going to encourage you to stop thinking of your life as a straight-line journey from cradle to grave and more like a tree, spinning around the sun every year, growing and maturing and changing from the inside-out. I want you to think about grief like a roadblock you keep having to hurdle, that gets just a little bit easier with every try. Head over the Patreon.com/funeralkazoo, sign up as a free member and give it a try. If it helps, I'm overjoyed. Celebrity guest stars include listener of the show and snowcat un-enthusiast, Jeremy Renner; 33rd president of the United States, Harry Truman; local area moron and head wound collector, Homer Simpson; and 80s dance floor filler, Chaka Khan.–––––THANK YOU.

Hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros challenge one of the most repeated ideas in personal development and expose why it quietly derails long-term success. One philosophy prioritizes pressure, risk, and rapid growth. The other protects consistency, identity, and sustainability. Both have merit. Both carry costs. Drawing from years of coaching patterns and thousands of conversations, this episode forces an honest look at how people actually grow, burn out, or compound results over time.This conversation is not about motivation or hype. It is about self-belief, risk tolerance, performance psychology, and knowing how much weight you can carry without breaking trust with yourself. Listen carefully. Then decide what kind of pressure you are willing to earn, and what kind of future you are willing to protect.Learn more about:Your first 30-minute “Business Breakthrough Session” call with Alan is FREE.

In this episode, Eric Coffie sits down with RJ Blake, Founder & CEO of Blake Wilson Group, for a real conversation about what it actually takes to build a GovCon business—from the first dollar of revenue to growing into prime contracts. RJ shares how his early "arena mindset" (trying, failing, refining) shaped his entrepreneurial journey, why most founders get stuck in analysis paralysis, and how he built revenue early by solving a painful problem for large primes: hard-to-fill talent with clearances and deep domain expertise. They also get honest about the realities nobody glamorizes—lawsuits as a business tactic, shutdowns slowing productivity, why cash and credit lines keep you alive, and why relationships are the one thing AI will never replace. Bottom line: if you want longevity in this game, you need preparation, community, and a plan you're willing to evolve. Key Takeaways "Luck" favors prepared contractors: You don't win sitting on the couch—you win by being in the arena, iterating, and staying ready. Sub-first can be the smartest move: RJ spent ~5 years building as a subcontractor, stacking cash, and systemizing before pushing hard into prime work. Targeted strategy beats chasing everything: Go where revenue is closest, understand your real value proposition, and treat relationships as your unfair advantage—because AI can't build trust for you.

Welcome to the very first episode of The Energy Is Everything Series — a six-part conversation series all about protecting your energy, expanding your capacity, and building a life and business that actually feel sustainable in your body.In this opening episode, I'm joined by the brilliant and wildly honest Heather Chauvin for a raw, grounded conversation about identity fatigue, impossible standards, and the invisible ways women are bleeding energy in the name of success, motherhood, and safety.This is not a “do more, try harder” conversation. It's about reverse engineering the life you want by starting with how you want to feel, and letting that guide your choices, boundaries, and identity… even when it disrupts everything you've been taught.TOPICS & TANGENTS: • Why energy is the real currency behind success • Reverse engineering your life from how you want to feel • Identity fatigue and the cost of impossible standards • Survival mode vs. aliveness • How women enable their own exhaustion to stay safe • The hidden energy leaks in motherhood and ambition • Co-regulation, support, and learning how to be held • Why balance is a myth rooted in perfectionism • Emotional repair as a daily practice • Letting go of performative strength • Choosing embodiment over hustle • Reclaiming feminine power without bypassing realityPOINT OF THE STORY: You don't need to become someone new to create the life you want… you need to stop abandoning yourself to maintain an identity that's draining you. When you reverse engineer your choices from how you want to feel, your energy returns, your boundaries clarify, and your life begins to align without force.MENTIONED:Dying to Be a Good Mother- BookFollow Heather ChauvinInstagramEmotionally Uncomfortable PodcastThis episode sets the tone for the entire Energy Is Everything Series.

In this compelling episode of "On Purpose," host Janice Alpert interviews Darlene Lekowski, a survivor of sibling sexual trauma who has transformed her pain into a powerful narrative of resilience and purpose. Darlene shares her harrowing story of abuse at the hands of her older brothers from ages seven to twelve, a secret she kept for decades due to fear and shame. After the passing of her mother and the onset of her father's dementia, Darlene found the courage to confront her past, leading to a public revelation of her trauma and a legal battle against her abuser.Throughout the conversation, Darlene discusses the impact of her experiences on her life, including her struggles with PTSD, her journey through various careers, and her commitment to helping others who have faced similar challenges. She emphasizes the importance of speaking out and finding support, highlighting that it is never too late to share one's story.

Digestive disorders like Crohn's disease and IBS can take over every aspect of life — from daily routines to relationships and long-term health. In this episode, we sit down with Dane Johnson, a board-certified nutritionist and founder of CrohnsColitisLifestyle, to explore how natural, personalized healing strategies can help people reclaim their lives. After nearly losing his life to severe Crohn's disease, Dane refused to accept a future defined by illness. By turning to functional medicine, nutrition, and lifestyle-based interventions, he not only restored his own health but built a mission around helping others do the same. In this conversation, we explore: ·       Why gut health testing is often confusing and misunderstood. ·       How toxins, foods, and treatments affect everyone differently. ·       Why a custom, root-cause approach is essential for healing IBD and IBS. ·       The biggest dietary and lifestyle offenders that stall recovery. If you're struggling with chronic digestive issues and feel overwhelmed by conflicting advice, this episode offers clarity, hope, and practical insights for moving forward — naturally and sustainably.

Happy New Year! And welcome back to another episode of Money Files. This is the ​last ​episode ​of the ​debt ​identity ​series ​and ​I ​am ​going ​to ​be ​talking ​to ​you ​about ​survival ​debt. The kind of debt that shows up after a divorce, a medical issue, a job loss, a major income shift, or a season you could not have planned for. Survival debt does not come from overspending or poor discipline. It comes from life happening faster than your savings could keep up, and it may be flavored with ​a ​little ​bit ​of the ​multiple ​types ​of ​debt that we've discussed in this series. ​When you understand why the debt exists, you stop treating it like a personal failure and start managing it with clarity instead of shame. Join me as I walk you through how survival debt often gets misclassified as a spending problem, how fake math shows up when emotions are high, and why paying off debt aggressively without changing the story usually leads to burnout and repeat cycles.If you have ever felt shame by debt that came from trying to survive a hard season, this episode will help you breathe again and move forward without self punishment.Episode Highlights:[01:47] Why naming your debt matters[02:10] What survival debt actually is[05:00] Life events that create survival debt[08:45] When debt becomes a story about who you are[11:30] How fake math shows up after hard seasons[14:20] Why rushing payoff plans lead to burnout[16:50] Renaming debt to reclaim control[19:40] Five questions to neutralize survival debtWhat did ​this ​debt ​allow ​me ​to ​survive ​or ​protect?What ​story ​am ​I ​telling ​myself ​about ​what ​this ​debt ​means?How ​would ​I ​view ​this ​debt ​if ​it ​belonged ​to ​someone ​I love?What ​would ​neutralizing ​this ​debt ​emotionally ​look ​like ​for me?What would ​change ​if ​this ​debt ​wasn't ​treated ​as ​a ​personal ​failure?[23:00] Choosing a calmer path forwardTune into this episode of Money Files to learn how naming survival debt helps you release shame, stop fake math, and build a sustainable plan rooted in clarity and self trust.Get full show notes and the episode transcript: https://wealthovernow.com/debt-identity-series-understanding-survival-debt-why-your-debt-is-not-a-personal-failure/Links mentioned in this episode…Set up a call | Financial Coach Washington, DC | Wealth Over NowDownload my FREE spending plan

Immigrant entrepreneurs often build businesses to last, and their approach to resilience, hospitality, and value creation offers powerful lessons for any small business owner. Show Notes Page: https://www.thehowofbusiness.com/591-neri-sillaman-survival-to-sustainable/ In this episode, Henry Lopez talks with Neri Karra Sillaman, author of Pioneers: Eight Principles of Business Longevity from Immigrant Entrepreneurs, about what immigrant entrepreneurs can teach us about building businesses that endure. Neri shares her remarkable journey from growing up in a Turkish minority family in communist Bulgaria, being forced to flee as refugees, and helping her family rebuild their lives and livelihoods in Turkey. She explains how those early experiences shaped her view of entrepreneurship, not as a career choice, but as a means of survival that later evolved into a powerful business philosophy. Drawing from her family's business experience and her formal business education, Neri discusses several of the core principles from her book, including resilience, authentic hospitality, cultural bridge-building, and a focus on long-term value rather than short-term profit. She explains how immigrant entrepreneurs often leverage past hardship, adaptability, and deep human connection to create businesses that last across generations. Whether you are an immigrant entrepreneur or a small business owner looking to build something sustainable, this conversation offers practical insights on trust, perseverance, and designing a business for longevity. This episode is hosted by Henry Lopez. The How of Business podcast focuses on helping you start, run, grow and exit your small business.

There's a moment in school leadership that rarely gets named.It's not burnout.It's not failure.It's not collapse.It's the quiet moment when everything looks “successful” on the outside — but something inside you feels tight, constricted, or unsustainable.In this episode of the Schools of Excellence Podcast, Chanie opens a new conversation inspired by her upcoming book, This Can't Be Normal. She invites school leaders to slow down and listen — not to fix, optimize, or pivot — but to notice what the signal is trying to say.This episode is not a lesson.It's not a framework.It's a place to stand inside yourself for a few minutes without managing the truth.If you're a school owner, director, or leader who has learned to normalize pressure, sacrifice, and endurance — this conversation offers permission to stop arguing with the signal and let clarity emerge at its own pace.In This Episode, You'll Hear:Why “success” can quietly start to feel like survival for school leadersThe difference between naming something and deciding what to do about itHow leaders learn to mute their own internal warning signalsWhy clarity doesn't come from moving faster — it comes from pausingHow creating space for truth restores leadership steadiness and discernmentA Reflection to Sit WithWhat if leadership feels heavy not because something is broken —but because something true has gone unnamed for too long?Resource MentionedIf you want language for what you're already experiencing, Chanie wrote Chapter One of her upcoming book specifically for leaders standing in this place.You can download it here, if and when it feels right: https://thiscantbenormal.comThere's no urgency.No expectation.Just an invitation to read slowly — or simply sit with the moment.

Send us a textEpisode OverviewIn this episode of The Own It Show, host Justin Roethlingshoefer delivers a powerful solo message on what it truly takes to become the best version of yourself in 2026. Drawing from a decade of personal growth, leadership, and faith-driven refinement, Justin challenges the idea that transformation comes from doing more—and instead reveals why lasting change comes from doing the right things. He unpacks the difference between survival and identity, exposing why most people don't lack ambition or goals, but alignment, capacity, and character. This episode serves as a wake-up call to stop outsourcing responsibility and start intentionally becoming who you were created to be.Episode Highlights● Radical Ownership: Ownership isn't blame or shame—it's truth without defense. Transformation begins the moment you fully own your rhythms, decisions, and patterns. ● Relief vs. Change: Most people don't actually want transformation; they want relief. Ownership forces you to confront what your life is revealing about you. ● Obsessive Obedience: Growth requires radical obedience to both God and wise mentorship. Stillness, listening, and accountability unlock direction and clarity. ● The Power of Alignment: Alignment occurs when values, behaviors, schedule, and body are no longer at war with each other. Alignment must come before assignment. ● Character Before Calling: God won't bless what your character can't sustain. Capacity is built through intentional obedience and alignment over time.Action Steps● Ask yourself: “Am I becoming who I'm called to be—or just getting better at surviving?” ● Practice radical ownership by identifying one daily pattern that's working against the future version of you. ● Create stillness each day—five minutes of silence to listen before you act. ● Identify a mentor who is aligned in values, ahead of you in growth, and willing to hold you accountable. ● Audit your calendar: does it reflect what you say matters most? ● Before saying yes, ask: “Does this decision support the future version of me?” ● Choose alignment over speed—clarity, peace, and power follow obedience.Chapters00:00 Introduction — Becoming the Best Version of You in 2026 01:30 Survival vs. Identity 03:00 Why Information Doesn't Create Transformation 04:45 Radical Ownership Defined 06:00 Patterns, Responsibility, and Personal Power 07:45 The Dangerous Prayer for Character 09:15 Obsessive Obedience Explained 11:00 Stillness, Listening, and God's Direction 12:45 The Role of Mentorship and Accountability 14:30 Alignment Before Assignment 16:15 Values, Calendars, and Contradictions 18:00 Misalignment, Fatigue, and Compromise 19:45 Asking Better Questions Through Alignment 21:30 The Cost—and Reward—of Alignment 23:30 Ownership, Obedience, and Alignment in Practice 25:00 Closing Challenge — Choosing Who You're Becoming===========================Subscribe and Listen to the Own It Show HERE:➡︎ YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@justinroethlingshoefer➡︎ Apple Podcasts:https://apple.co/3KCyN3j➡︎ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3F58Ez4lbIKQ6kMu2pfpIG===========================Resources:⚡️CHECK OUR PROGRAMS: https://ownitcoaching.com/programs/⚡️BOOK: https://thepowerofownershipbook.com/=========================== Connect with Justin Roethlingshoefer on Social Media:➡︎ linkedin.com/in/justin-roethlingshoefer➡︎https://www.instagram.com/justinroeth/?hl=en

A true crime / survival mystery from the Siberian wilds: in August 1993, seven hikers entered the Hamar-Daban Mountains of Buryatia (near Lake Baikal)—and only one walked back out. What happened on that windswept ridge has been called the “Buryat Dyatlov Pass”: a sudden storm, a frantic descent, and then a cascade of bizarre symptoms—foaming at the mouth, blood, panic, and collapse—leaving six bodies scattered on an exposed ledge while a terrified teen survivor staggered to a river and found help.  Officials ruled hypothermia and closed the case. But the details refused to stay buried: claims of missing eyes later attributed to scavengers, questions about food and exhaustion, and theories ranging from toxic exposure to military testing to the possibility of cold/altitude-related pulmonary edema.  Inside this episode:The trek: Lyudmila Korovina leads six young hikers into the Hamar-Daban rangeThe turn: August 4–5 — a brutal storm hits at roughly 2,300 metersThe collapse: eyewitness survivor account of sudden convulsions and rapid deathsThe recovery: why the scene looked “impossible,” and what time + wildlife can doThe official file: why authorities said hypothermia—and what they dismissedTheories vs. evidence: separating folklore from what the record can actually supportThis is a case where nature, fear, and unanswered questions collide—and the only person who knows the final minutes had to live with them forever. We're telling that story tonight.

In the summer of 1960, seven-year-old Roger Woodward was just a kid looking forward to a boat ride on the Niagara River to celebrate his sister's birthday—he had no idea he was about to experience something that should have been impossible. When a simple mechanical failure turned their peaceful afternoon into a nightmare, Roger found himself being swept toward the edge of Niagara Falls, powerless against 750,000 gallons of water rushing past him every second. What followed was a series of moments so improbable, so perfectly timed, that witnesses called it a miracle—from his sister's desperate fight for survival just feet from the brink, to Roger's own journey over a 188-foot waterfall. This is the story of the boy who fell into Niagara Falls and lived, and the ordinary people who became heroes in the most extraordinary circumstances.

In this episode of Superlative, host and aBlogtoWatch founder Ariel Adams sits down with professional big wave surfer and TAG Heuer brand ambassador Kai Lenny for an in depth conversation about risk, preparation, and what timing really means when nature is in full control. Growing up in Hawaii with some of the most powerful surf breaks in the world just minutes from his home, Kai explains how learning to read the ocean from land shaped his approach long before he ever paddled into massive waves, and why wave selection is as much a mental calculation as it is physical commitment. The discussion explores the realities of big wave surfing, from the physics of underwater pressure and the danger of impact over drowning, to the evolving role of safety equipment, communication systems, and training that allow surfers to operate at the edge of survivability. Ariel and Kai also unpack why surfing is fundamentally a time based sport, how tides, wave sets, and forecasting dictate every decision, and why a reliable dive watch remains a critical tool even in a world of advanced analytics. Along the way, Kai shares how working closely with TAG Heuer goes far beyond sponsorship, offering insight into testing watches in conditions that cannot be simulated on land, providing real world feedback on durability and ergonomics, and drawing inspiration from Swiss watchmaking craftsmanship to refine his own approach to equipment, performance, and constant improvement. The conversation closes with a thoughtful reflection on parenthood, legacy, and how confronting nature's power reshapes perspective, revealing why for those who live at the extremes, timepieces are not just accessories but quiet companions that measure moments most people will never experience.Follow Kai and check out TAG Heuer Watches:Kai - https://www.instagram.com/kai_lenny/ TAG Heuer - https://www.tagheuer.com/ SUPERLATIVE IS NOW ON YOUTUBE!

Did Fentanyl Almost Kill a Cop? One Deputy's Story of Trauma, Survival, and a Mission to Help Others. Special Episode. For years, fentanyl has dominated headlines as a driving force behind America's overdose crisis. What's discussed far less often is how this drug impacts the first responders who encounter it in the line of duty. For Deputy Jeff Brown, a long-serving law enforcement officer, accidental fentanyl exposure didn't just spark a frightening moment, it caused permanent injuries, ongoing trauma, and a new mission focused on helping others. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. By any measure, Jeff Brown is a law enforcement hero. But one accidental fentanyl exposure nearly ended his life, and forever changed it. This special episode is streaming for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and most every major Podcast platform This is not just a story for the news-cycle. It's a story meant to be shared on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and across platforms like the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, Apple Podcasts and Spotify, because it speaks to the hidden cost of service, the reality of trauma, stress, PTSD, and the lasting injuries many heroes carry long after the call ends. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Accidental Fentanyl Exposure Almost Claimed His Life Jeff Brown had built a distinguished law enforcement career when one routine encounter with drug abusers turned into a life-threatening emergency. During the incident, Jeff and his backup deputies were accidentally exposed to fentanyl. The effects were immediate and terrifying. Had it not been for department-issued Narcan and the training the deputies received, Jeff believes he and others would not have survived. In a matter of minutes, deputies were forced to save each other's lives. Did Fentanyl Almost Kill a Cop? One Deputy's Story of Trauma, Survival, and a Mission to Help Others. Special Episode. Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. They lived, but not without consequence. For Jeff, the exposure caused permanent damage to his heart, altering his health and his future. What should have been just another shift became the defining moment of his life. The Aftermath: Injuries, Recovery, and a Broken System Surviving the incident was only the beginning. Jeff openly talks about: The physical recovery and lingering medical issues The emotional toll and ongoing stress Battles with Worker's Compensation The lack of understanding surrounding first responder injuries The rarely discussed crime problem in a tourist-driven resort area Like many first responders, Jeff learned that surviving the job does not guarantee support afterward. The system often struggles to recognize invisible injuries, especially when fear, misinformation, and stigma surround incidents involving fentanyl. Did Fentanyl Almost Kill a Cop?

Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. Fentanyl Misinformation and First Responder Trauma In 2016, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) released advisories warning that simply touching or inhaling fentanyl could be fatal within minutes. Images of tiny, allegedly lethal doses circulated widely, reinforcing fear among first responders. At the time, the narrative felt plausible. Illicit fentanyl was flooding the streets, and officers had limited information. Later, medical experts, including the American College of Medical Toxicology and the American Academy of Clinical Toxicology clarified that incidental exposure leading to overdose is extremely unlikely. Other countries adjusted their guidance accordingly. Special Episode. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. But misinformation lingers, and it carries consequences. Officers who believe they've been exposed can experience panic attacks, hyperventilation, vertigo, and racing heart rates. These symptoms are real and distressing, yet often misinterpreted as fentanyl toxicity. In a culture where fear is seen as weakness, these events can go under-reported or misdiagnosed, potentially leading to delayed or inappropriate medical care. We stand by this critical point: Accidental fentanyl exposure can have drastic effects when combined with preexisting health conditions, particularly involving the heart. These incidents deserve serious, compassionate, and accurate medical evaluation. Did Fentanyl Almost Kill a Cop? One Deputy's Story of Trauma, Survival, and a Mission to Help Others. Special Episode.

The FDA Warning: When Fentanyl Exposure Is Truly Deadly While incidental exposure myths persist among adults, there is one area where the danger is undisputed. The FDA warns that accidental exposure to fentanyl patches continues to be deadly to children. Fentanyl patches are prescribed for opioid-tolerant patients and release fentanyl through the skin over several days. Tragically, children have died after: Putting used or unused patches in their mouths Sticking patches onto their skin Even used patches can contain enough fentanyl to be fatal. The FDA urges caregivers to: Store patches securely Dispose of them properly Keep naloxone readily available If a child is suspected of exposure, call 911 immediately. Trauma, PTSD, and the Cost of Service Jeff's story highlights a truth many don't want to face: trauma doesn't end when the sirens stop. First responders routinely carry: Cumulative stress Psychological trauma PTSD Chronic health problems These issues affect not only their careers but their families, hobbies, and identities. For many even the simple joys of fishing and hunting, once outlets for peace, were impacted by his injuries and recovery. Did Fentanyl Almost Kill a Cop?

Send us a textIn the mid-1850s, America was expanding westward — fast, hungry, and ruthless. The ink was barely dry on the Gadsden Purchase when settlers began pouring into the unforgiving deserts of what would one day become southern Arizona. The land was harsh, lawless, and already inhabited by Native nations like the Apache, who fiercely resisted encroachment.This episode begins in that volatile moment — where empires shifted, cultures clashed, and ordinary people stepped into extraordinary danger.At the heart of this story is Larcena Pennington Page, a young woman who journeyed west with her family in search of a new life. What happened to her in the mountains outside Tucson — kidnapped by Apache warriors and left for dead in the wilderness — became one of the most remarkable survival stories in Arizona's early history.But before we get to that, we explore the world she lived in: a borderland shaped by conflict, hope, and unimaginable hardship.This is more than a tale of survival. It's about the collision of nations, the resilience of a frontier family, and the woman who walked back from the edge of death.Support the show
