Podcasts about survival tips

Is the Tour de France actually a circus, and how do riders survive the extreme heat? Plus, why you shouldn't put luggage on a race bike. This week, the whole gang is in the virtual studio to talk about everything happening in the cycling world right now. Logan Jones-Wilkins kicks things off with his firsthand account of the Tour de France and shares a radical take on why moving race start times to beat the heat is harder than it sounds. Then, Mike Levy pulls a listener question that sparks a debate on why we push gear testing past the 1,000-mile mark. That leads perfectly into a recap of the 200-mile Seattle to Portland (STP) event, where Lisa Charlebois pedaled a traditional round-tube metal bike while I coasted past on a fully-kitted aero Factor One. Finally, we break down my review of the Pinarello Dogma X and explain why its "endurance" label masks a bike that still fundamentally wants to race. In This Episode We Cover: The Tour de France: The reality of the circus and how the peloton handles scorching temperatures. Extreme Heat Strategies: Why starting races earlier isn't an easy fix, plus tips for surviving hot weather rides. Gear Testing: Why a saddle that feels great at 100 miles might fail at 1,000. The STP Ride: Aero bikes vs. round-tube metal frames over 200 miles. The Luggage Debate: Why race bikes and frame storage (or saddlebags) don't mix. Pinarello Dogma X: A deep dive into the quirks of Italian bike reviews and racing heritage.

In this monthly bonus episode of the Anglotopia Podcast, Jonathan Thomas returns with the July edition of What's On in London — a complete rundown of everything worth seeing and doing in the city this month. July is London at its most extroverted: Wimbledon fever, the BBC Proms at the Royal Albert Hall, British Summertime at Hyde Park, open-air cinema across the city, and a remarkable cluster of new exhibitions opening across the major galleries. Particularly special this month are three America 250 exhibitions viewing the American Revolution from the British side — at the National Archives, the British Museum, and Benjamin Franklin's only surviving house anywhere in the world, just around the corner from Trafalgar Square. Jonathan also covers the ongoing blockbusters already running from June, gives an honest assessment of London's July heat wave (currently under a red weather warning), shares a firsthand account from an Anglotopia friend who was in the city during the worst of it, and walks through the practical survival tips that will make your summer visit not just manageable but genuinely wonderful. Links New Exhibitions — July Richard Dadd at the Royal Academy of Arts (from July 1) Young Artist Summer Show, Royal Academy (from July 14 — Free) Ferdinand Georg Waldmüller Landscapes, National Gallery (from July 2 — Free) Anna Mendieta at Tate Modern In Other Worlds by Liam Young, Barbican (from July 15) Audrey Amis at the Wellcome Collection (from July 9) Art as Witness: The Lying in State of Queen Elizabeth II, Westminster Hall (from July 13) America 250 Exhibitions Revolution 250: America's Independence Story, National Archives (open now — Free) Declaring Independence: USA 250, British Museum (from June 30 — Free) How We Lost America, Benjamin Franklin House (from July 3) Ongoing Exhibitions from June Frida Kahlo & Tracey Emin at Tate Modern Anish Kapoor Retrospective, Hayward Gallery Royal Academy Summer Exhibition Schiaparelli: Fashion Becomes Art at the V&A Zurbarán at the National Gallery James McNeill Whistler at Tate Britain Marilyn Monroe at the National Portrait Gallery The Queen's Fashion at The King's Gallery (sold out through 2026 — now extended into 2027, book ahead) Inside Aardman: Wallace & Gromit at Young V&A Major Events Wimbledon 2026 BBC Proms at the Royal Albert Hall (from mid-July) British Summertime at Hyde Park Open Air Cinema — Somerset House, Rooftop Film Club, Regent's Park Buckingham Palace State Rooms Summer Opening (late July) (likely sold out — check for returns) Houses of Parliament Tours (July/August recess) Practical Resources Londontopia London Events Calendar TfL Tube Map — Which Lines Have Air Conditioning Refill App — Free Water Refill Points Across London Ken Burns American Revolution Documentary — PBS Passport Friends of Anglotopia Club Takeaways July is London at its most spectacular and its most demanding — maximum daylight (sunrise before 5am, sunset after 9pm), world-class events, longer museum hours, and beautiful golden evening light, but also peak crowds, peak prices, and the very real possibility of an extreme heat wave. Three once-in-a-lifetime America 250 exhibitions are open this July, all viewing the American Revolution from the British side: the National Archives has George Washington's handwritten letter accepting the British surrender at Yorktown and an original copy of the 1783 Treaty of Paris; the British Museum has four key objects from the Revolution; and Benjamin Franklin's only surviving house anywhere in the world is hosting "How We Lost America" from July 3. Richard Dadd at the Royal Academy (from July 1) is the most compelling new exhibition of the month — a rare survey of the brilliant Victorian painter who created hauntingly intricate fairy scenes while confined to an asylum after killing his father in a psychotic episode. The red weather warning heat wave currently affecting Britain is not a reason to cancel a trip, but it does require preparation: buy a fan on arrival (from Boots, Superdrug, Marks & Spencer, or a corner shop), carry a refillable water bottle, avoid the Central, Bakerloo, Northern, and Piccadilly tube lines during the heat, and use the air-conditioned Elizabeth line instead. During an extreme heat wave, even well-equipped venues can be forced to close galleries — one Anglotopia friend visiting recently reported that parts of the British Museum had to shut because industrial fans couldn't bring temperatures down, and visitors were fainting. Have a backup plan for every attraction. The Art as Witness exhibition at Westminster Hall (from July 13) — gathering official artworks made to record Queen Elizabeth II's lying in state in September 2022 — is a quietly moving, freely accessible display in one of the oldest buildings in London, and is worth combining with a Houses of Parliament tour during the summer recess. The BBC Proms at the Royal Albert Hall, running from mid-July straight through August, offers some of the most affordable classical music in London — from Bach to brand new compositions — with tickets potentially still available for some concerts. The Queen's Fashion exhibition at The King's Gallery is now extended into 2027 — if you're visiting next spring, book now, as it continues to sell out in advance. Jonathan's honest verdict: July is the right month if you love outdoor events, maximum daylight, world-class exhibitions, and big set-piece British occasions like Wimbledon, and you're comfortable with higher prices and significant crowds. It's the wrong month if you want contemplative museums, budget hotels, relaxed restaurant booking, or the tube to feel bearable without the Elizabeth line. Tucked between every crowded attraction, there is still a quieter London in July — in tree-lined squares, along the Thames at dusk, in church gardens, in early-morning side streets before the tour groups arrive. Walk slowly, sit in the parks, get to the pub before the evening rush, and the city reveals itself. Soundbites "July is London at its most extroverted, most expensive, and most crowded — and honestly its most beautiful. The city is showing off, and you can either love that or find it exhausting. There really is no middle ground." — Jonathan's honest verdict on July in London. "Richard Dadd created these hauntingly intricate fairy scenes like the Fairy Feller's Master Stroke — while he was confined to an asylum after he killed his father in a psychotic episode. So that's like, this guy already sounds really interesting." — Jonathan on the Royal Academy's most compelling new show. "The National Archives has a handwritten letter signed by George Washington accepting the British surrender at Yorktown. They have an actual copy of the 1783 Treaty of Paris. You're going to be seeing some of the most famous documents that are really founding documents for us — from the British side." — Jonathan on the National Archives America 250 exhibition. "Benjamin Franklin spent something like 20 to 30 years living in London. And his only remaining house that he ever lived in is in London, just around the corner from Trafalgar Square. They're hosting a witty and thought-provoking exhibition called 'How We Lost America' — a British perspective on the Revolution, told in the very house where Franklin spent years trying to hold both sides together." — Jonathan on the Benjamin Franklin House. "The temperature climbed to about 98 degrees on their last day and it genuinely curtailed their plans. Walking the sun-drenched pavements and riding the crowded tube became, in their words, a bit debilitating — especially as they were senior travelers. In an extreme heat event, the heat doesn't just make you uncomfortable. It can quietly eat your itinerary." — Jonathan sharing a firsthand heat wave account from an Anglotopia friend. "The first thing you should do when you land and you've checked into your hotel is go to a local ironmonger or hardware store and get a fan. Buy a fan. You will need a fan. Buy two fans. You'll have two fans. Be in a wind tunnel." — Jonathan's number one heat wave survival tip. "The light is a secret superpower of July travel in London. That long golden evening light makes every gray building glow. Yes, it's hot. Yes, it's crowded — but the city looks absolutely beautiful at 8pm with a cold glass of something in your hand." — Jonathan on why July evenings in London are worth it. "Even though the British Museum has air conditioning, some of the galleries had to shut because they couldn't bring the temperature down even with industrial fans — and they mentioned visitors fainting from the heat. If you're building a trip around a specific thing you want to see during a heat wave, have a backup." — Jonathan on extreme heat and museum closures. "Sun rises before 5am, sets after 9pm. It's glorious if you love long evenings — maddening if you want to sleep in. But you're in London. Why waste time sleeping?" — Jonathan on July's extraordinary daylight hours. "Walk slowly, sit in the parks, go to the pub early before the evening rush. The city is jammed with people but it's also jammed with possibility. July is London saying: I'm giving you my absolute best. Here it is, take it or leave it. And most people will take it — which is exactly why it's so crowded." — Jonathan's closing thought on July in London.

In this episode of The Freelancer's Tea Break, I'm reflecting on my son nearing the end of primary school and sharing practical ways I've managed childcare while freelancing, especially over the long summer holidays. I explain how UK tax-free childcare works (pay £8 in, get £2 topped up) and remind you it can help beyond nursery, including some after-school and summer clubs (depending on who accepts it).  I also talk about how things get easier as kids get older, and share other support options that have helped me, including help from family (while acknowledging it's a privilege), swapping childcare with friends, using outdoors clubs, and looking into workspaces that offer childcare or gyms with crèches.  I also stress the importance of balancing childcare with your partner and invite tips for the secondary school transition, especially for neurodivergent children.  Timestamps: 00:00 Welcome and Life Update  00:31 Tax Free Childcare Basics  02:07 Summer Holiday Juggle  03:11 When Kids Get Older  05:02 Practical Support Options  05:23 Family Help and Privilege  07:08 Swaps With Friends  07:57 Workspaces With Childcare  09:15 Partnering and Sharing Load  10:13 Recap and Next Transition  11:16 Community Links and Goodbye Follow me on Instagram Follow me on Bluesky Email: hello@emmacossey.com  Come join us in the free Freelance Lifestylers Facebook group Want more support?

For most people, a trip to the ER is unexpected. But when your child has medical complexities, it's often an inevitable and rhythmic part of life.Every time something seems off and feels like it's progressing, you're forced to make a gut-wrenching call: do we handle this at home, or do we go in?In this episode, we're unpacking what those moments actually look like. From the fear that sits in the background of every illness, to the reality of navigating ER teams who don't know your child, to the emotional whiplash of being hyper-focused in the moment and unraveling later. We talk about how these decisions evolve over time, what experience teaches you (and what it doesn't), and why “better safe than sorry” doesn't even begin to capture the full picture.And a big thank you to Functional Formularies, our sponsor for this episode.Links:Learn more about Functional Formularies!Join The Rare Life newsletter andnever miss an update!Fill out our contact form to joinupcoming discussion groups!

What an absolutely beautiful day it was yesterday! Cooling off the rest of the week with some rain and possible snow on Thursday. Last week, we had a kangaroo on the loose in Wisconsin…while a zoo in New Mexico had to delay it's opening after an elephant got loose! Speaking of Wisconsin, a priest who was arrested last year for child enticement & attempted sexual assault is now facing new charges…and a "teen takeover" at the Bayshore mall turns ugly. Elsewhere in the news, the Army is investigating the recent helicopter stunt at Kid Rock's house, and the US Military is building an underground complex beneath the new White House ballroom. In sports, the Brewers lost to the Rays last night, the Bucks play tonight against the Mavs, the results of last night's final two games of the NCAA women's Elite 8, the Chicago Bulls waive Jaden Ivey, and Tiger Woods doesn't want a driver. We let you know what's on TV today/tonight and we also talked about what's new on New Release Tuesday. In other sports news, the 49ers conclude that the power substation by their practice field has nothing to do with all their injuries, and the WNBA's Connecticut Sun is selling & moving. Grant Bilse of the Wisco Sports Show joined us just after 8am to talk about the Brewers hot start. Today is National Tater Day, so make sure you've got some tots or mashed potatoes on the menu tonight. Cool story about a woman who runs a teddy bear hospital, and a World War II Veteran is the oldest organ donor in US history! Hidden Valley Ranch is looking for Ranch-Bassadors to travel the world & preach the gospel of HVR, and we also had a new "Karen of the Day" Plus, a list of some survival "tips" that aren't true and won't help you survive in real-world situations. And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a woman who slept with identical twins and got pregnant by one of them, a woman who was busted driving while on a Zoom hearing with a judge, and a woman in Michigan who escaped from the back of a cop car.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Advisory Partner Jimmy Allen shares the practical survival tips he has developed over decades at Bain. He introduces frameworks like the “front and back of the T-shirt” to highlight the importance of seeking honest, often uncomfortable feedback, and the “five-slide loop” to help individuals communicate with clarity and impact.

You get dropped into a two-show day where you're juggling festival chaos, a paramedic emergency during set change, and a mysteriously mudded-out bass that turns out to be a rogue low‑pass filter at 90 Hz, all while keeping the gig on the rails because you Always Be Performing. Then you pivot into first‑timer survival tactics for attending SXSW: locking in reservations weeks out, over‑planning so you can gleefully abandon those plans, and treating the whole thing as a marathon and a sprint while your calendar app becomes your best friend…and your worst enemy. Throughout it all, you're thinking like a pro: dialing in efficient monitor setups for festival stages, dealing with sketchy solder joints on a microphone (or is that a mic cable issue?), staying sane amid SXSW security, and never underestimating the power of great brisket, BBQ, and a solid spot to reset your brain.

Comment on the Show by Sending Mark a Text Message.Have you ever wondered what happens when a dedicated professional risks it all to expose wrongdoing in the workplace? In this gripping episode of Employee Survival Guide®, Mark Carey takes you through the riveting legal battle of Dr. Misty Blanchett Porter against Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center (DHMC). This true story reveals the harsh realities of institutional discrimination, dysfunction, whistleblowing, and the often perilous consequences of standing up for what's right. Dr. Porter, a highly skilled physician with over two decades of experience, transitioned from a celebrated surgeon to a whistleblower after raising serious concerns about her colleagues' medical practices. Her courageous actions led to a chaotic internal environment that culminated in the closure of the Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility division, a department she had been instrumental in developing. Despite her invaluable contributions, Dr. Porter faced discrimination, retaliation and was ultimately terminated under the guise of a business decision. This episode dives into the complexities of employment law, focusing on the precarious balance between institutional reputation and employee rights. Join us as we analyze key legal elements, including the pivotal Second Circuit Court decision that overturned an initial summary judgment and the implications of the jury's split verdict in 2025. This verdict highlighted the varying standards of causation in discrimination cases, underscoring the importance of understanding employee rights in the face of discrimination, retaliation, and hostile work environments. We delve into the nuances of disability discrimination and the essential protections that whistleblowers like Dr. Porter need to navigate a system fraught with challenges. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in employment law, workplace culture, and the fight for justice in the face of discrimination. Whether you're navigating work disputes, negotiating severance packages, or simply seeking career development tips, the insights shared in this episode will empower you to advocate for yourself and your colleagues. Explore the intricacies of severance negotiations, the rights of employees, and the legal frameworks that protect whistleblowers in the workplace. Don't miss this chance to gain insider tips on surviving the complexities of employment law and to understand the critical importance of employee advocacy. Tune in to Employee Survival Guide® for a powerful discussion that not only highlights the struggles of one brave physician but also serves as a guide for all employees facing similar workplace challenges.

In this episode, hosts Chris Anthony and Mary Oquendo dive deep into what it means to truly invest in your grooming business—especially during the holiday season and as we roll into the New Year. Forget standard New Year's resolutions!

Chris Anthony and Mary Oquendo blend wisdom, humor, and a healthy dose of real talk, sharing both lessons learned the hard way and tips to start your new year with clarity and confidence. So grab your travel mug, hop aboard, and let's explore how you can set your business up for another successful, fulfilling year.

To watch the video of this episode, please go to:    Do you feel held hostage by the rollercoaster of a loved one's addiction? What is the crucial difference between helping someone and enabling their destructive behavior?   Is it possible to stop the chaos and help the entire family heal, even if the addict isn't ready to change?   Join Dr. Adriana Popescu in another empowering episode of Kaleidoscope of Possibilities: Alternative Perspectives on Mental Health, where she explores the complex dynamics of addiction within the family system. In this episode, Dr. Adriana sits down with Candace Plattor, an addiction therapist and author who specializes in helping families stop enabling their loved ones. They discuss the often-overlooked reality that addiction is a family disease, exploring how "loved ones" can inadvertently keep the addict sick through enabling behaviors. Candace shares her personal journey of recovery and offers a transformative roadmap for families to establish boundaries, prioritize their own self-care, and ultimately "raise the bottom" for the addict in their lives.   In this episode: A Journey of Recovery: Candace shares her personal story of overcoming 15 years of opioid addiction and celebrating over 36 years of sobriety. Addiction Defined: Understanding addiction not just as a substance issue, but as a displacement of anxiety and a symptom of underlying trauma. Helping vs. Enabling: A clear, game-changing definition of the difference between truly helping a loved one and enabling their addiction. The Family System: Why treating the addict in isolation rarely works and the importance of healing the entire family unit. Raising the Bottom: Debunking the myth that you have to wait for an addict to hit "rock bottom" and learning how to raise that bottom sooner. Love with Boundaries: Practical steps for loved ones to regain their sanity, stop being held hostage, and love without losing themselves. Holistic Healing: The role of hypnotherapy and addressing the root cause of the "hole in the soul.”   Resources mentioned in this episode: Candace's Website: LoveWithBoundaries.com Book: Loving an Addict, Loving Yourself: The Top 10 Survival Tips for Loving Someone with an Addiction by Candace Plattor: https://lovewithboundaries.com/loving-an-addict-loving-yourself-3/ Free 3-Minute Quiz: Available on Candace's website to see if you are an enabler. Complimentary Strategic Consultation: A free 30-minute call for families.   About Candace: Candace Plattor, author of Loving an Addict, Loving Yourself: The Top 10 Survival Tips for Loving Someone with an Addiction and Loving an Addict, Loving Yourself: The Workbook, knows from personal experience what it means to be an addict. Within a year of being diagnosed with Crohn's Disease in 1973, she found herself in the throes of prescription drug addiction. Her Crohn's Disease diagnosis came at a time when the medical community had a very limited understanding of the disease and how to treat it. As a result, the treatment included some very addictive medications such as Valium, Demerol, Codeine and Oxycontin, which she took faithfully for a number of years. Additionally, she discovered that marijuana took away a lot of her physical pain and helped her escape from feelings of powerlessness, hopelessness, and isolation. In no time at all, she became a daily pot smoker and had one more addiction to deal with. And when she ran out of pot, she abused alcohol. After more than 15 years of abusing substances, she "reached bottom" in 1987. Thus began her journey of recovery and self-discovery. In her books, Candace draws from her experience as an addict, as well as from the stories of those she continues to help in her practice, to uncover the reality of loving someone with an addiction. All too often, people with an addicted loved one in their lives will neglect themselves in an attempt to "help." But, as she points out in her books, this is a lose-lose situation that doesn't help the addict at all. Instead, loved ones must make their own needs a priority and learn to focus on their own self-care.   “Helping is doing something for someone that they are not capable of doing for themselves. Enabling is doing for someone things that they could and should be doing for themselves.” – Candace   Would you like to continue this conversation and connect with other people who are interested in exploring these topics?

Trish explains why night two after birth often feels overwhelming, reassures new parents that it's normal, and shares practical tips to survive Second Night Syndrome. Drawing from her expertise, Trish emphasizes that your baby isn't broken - they're just adjusting to life outside the womb while helping establish your milk supply.Key TakeawaysWhat is Second Night Syndrome? Around 24-48 hours post-birth, babies become fussy, cry incessantly, root constantly, and refuse to be put down. This is a normal adjustment from the womb's constant comfort to the bright, cold world. It's not hunger or failure - it's biological programming to trigger your milk production.Survival Tips for Night Two:Skin-to-Skin: Strip baby to diaper and yourself to bare chest to regulate their vitals and provide comfort.Feed on Demand: Allow nonstop nursing - it's establishing your supply. Prep for a relaxed evening (watch your fav tv show).Create a Calm Environment: Dim lights, use white noise, and minimize overstimulation.Share the Load: Involve your partner for diapers, burping, and holding to give you breaks.Lower Expectations: Forget schedules - focus on bonding and survival. This phase passes quickly.When to Call Your Provider: Fewer than two wet diapers in 24 hours, lethargy, no interest in feeding, dry lips/mouth, or if your gut says something's wrong.More from this episode:Read the Blog: Second Night Syndrome: Tips For Surviving Baby's Second NightHelpful Timestamps:01:04 Understanding Second Night Syndrome02:11 Why Your Baby is Crying04:36 Common Mistakes Parents Make06:28 Survival Guide for Second Night Syndrome09:03 When to Call Your Provider10:31 Conclusion and Next StepsJoin the #1 Birth Course for Confident Birth!Over 15,000 women have used our classes to prepare for birth with the knowledge and tools provided by a Labor Nurse.

The holidays are coming fast, but your goals don't have to go backward. We break down what real progress looks like with our latest InBody results and lay out a simple, sustainable plan to enjoy the season without turning six celebration days into sixty unfocused ones. Think mindful treats, smart training, and clear choices that keep momentum alive through the new year.We also share the nuts and bolts that make classes better for everyone: why the 25‑person cap protects safety and coaching quality, how no‑shows and late cancels block fellow members from training, and the crucial difference between signing up and signing in. We walk through the 5 a.m. waitlist policy, experience prerequisites for high‑pace hours, and how we make night‑before calls based on the workout. If email filters or app logins are getting in your way, we've got fixes and a direct line for support.On the community front, we preview the Christmas party with a firm RSVP system so we can plan food, share the holiday schedule with closures and half days, and drop an early registration link for HYROX Vegas. Around the facility, we're reorganizing equipment, dialing in layouts, and adding rope climbs so we can program them fairly. We also set clear standards for kids training during non‑peak classes: parent responsibility, coach approval, and a focus on coordination and safety within an adult‑first environment. Wrap it all together, and the message is simple—plan ahead, respect the room, enjoy the real holidays, and finish the year strong with a community that's pulling in the same direction.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a gym friend who needs holiday guardrails, and leave a quick review with the one tip that keeps you consistent.
