It's October at last, and that means monster month! To start us off this year, we're going to learn about animals of the Skeleton Coast, which sounds a lot more spooky than it actually is. The Skeleton Coast is a stretch of coastline 310 miles long, or 500 km, on the Atlantic coast of Africa. It's part of Namibia, a huge country in southern Africa that's mostly quite dry, with two deserts within its borders. Because the country gets so little rainfall, it has to conserve water for its people, animals, and crops, so the government is serious about conservation and natural resources. It's home to one of the most cutting-edge water treatment plants in the world, and since the government's establishment in 1993, it's been working to help farmers and citizens in general to practice sustainable natural resource management. It's also a beautiful part of the world, with amazing geography, and animals and plants found nowhere else in the world, so eco-tourism has been increasing, which helps the economy. Namibia is also home to the San people, who call the Skeleton Coast “the land god made in anger.” The northern part of the coast is blocked off from land by huge sand dunes, while the southern part is rocky. To get there, you have to cross a desert, and then cross a treacherous marsh that's hundreds of miles across. Then to get home, you have to go back the way you came across the marsh and the desert, because launching a boat from the Skeleton Coast is impossible if you don't have a powerful engine. The sea along the Skeleton Coast is treacherous, with lots of rocks offshore, extremely heavy surf, and frequent thick fogs. There are around a thousand shipwrecks visible along the coast, with the oldest dating to the 1530s, and thousands more documented that aren't visible or haven't been found yet. Ships still wreck there sometimes. Animals do live along the Skeleton Coast, especially seals. The brown fur seal, also called the Cape fur seal, has a huge colony in the northern part of the coast, which is a national park. The brown fur seal lives in various parts of southern Africa, with a subspecies that also lives on some islands off southeastern Australia and Tasmania. A big male can grow 7 ½ feet long, or 2.3 meters, and as you can probably guess from its name, it's mostly brown in color. Males have a short mane on the neck that's usually darker than the rest of its fur. It has magnificent long whiskers, especially males. The brown fur seal mainly eats fish, but it also likes squid and will eat other animals like crustaceans and even birds. It can dive deeply and stay underwater for over seven minutes. It spends most of its life in the water, mainly only coming out on land to breed, give birth, and take care of the babies. The seals used to be killed for their fur, but this was outlawed in Namibia in 1990 except by special permit, which has allowed the seals' numbers to increase. The Skeleton Coast is named that mainly because of the massive amounts of seal bones that fur hunters left behind after killing and skinning seals. Unfortunately, something the rocks around the Skeleton Coast collect are plastic debris, especially fishing debris like nets.

This episode examines one of Australia's most enduring aviation mysteries. On October 21, 1978, twenty-year-old pilot Frederick Valentich departed Moorabbin Airport in Melbourne on what should have been a routine flight to King Island.Flying a Cessna 182L across the Bass Strait, he expected an uneventful journey of just over 120 miles. Instead, he vanished. Despite an intensive week-long search covering more than a thousand square miles of sea and coastline, no wreckage or trace of the young pilot was ever found.Valentich was ambitious and deeply committed to flying, having logged 150 hours in the air and aiming to build a professional career in aviation. The Bass Strait was known for its unpredictable waters and history of disappearances, but the conditions that evening were favorable, making his disappearance even more perplexing.The mystery deepens when we revisit Valentich's final moments in the air. According to official records, he reported observing a large, metallic object with bright green lights that hovered and darted in ways no known aircraft could. He described it circling his plane and playing what seemed like a terrifying game. Then came an eerie metallic noise, and silence.Witnesses across Victoria and Tasmania also reported strange lights and objects in the sky that night. From Cape Otway to King Island, independent observers described green glows, metallic craft, and lights descending toward the sea.More than forty years later, the Valentich disappearance remains unsolved, a chilling story that continues to provoke fascination and wonder. https://www.pastliveshypnosis.co.uk/https://www.patreon.com/alienufopodcastMy book 'Verified Near Death Exeriences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFP Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Guest: Duc Do – AI expert, entrepreneur, author, and ultra-runner with a penchant for the “boring” and a training schedule that defies all conventional wisdom. Get Ready For: A wildly inspiring, deeply honest, and surprisingly hilarious conversation that proves there's no single “right” way to be a runner. Duc's story is a masterclass in resilience, creativity, and finding your own path. Why You'll Love This Episode: The Ultimate Underdog Story: Duc grew up in Vietnam and India, plagued by chronic illness from overuse of antibiotics. He was the kid who finished dead last in school runs, huffing and puffing while the girls passed him. Fast forward to today, and he's tackling 200-mile races like Delirious West. How? You'll have to listen! The “Cunning Plan” (a.k.a. The Anti-Training Plan): Forget 6am track sessions and weekly mileage logs. Duc's secret weapon? Running just once a week. That's right. He's a self-proclaimed “specialist at tapering” and has built an incredible ultra-running career on a single, long Sunday run. His philosophy: make it work for your crazy life, not the other way around. Embrace the Boring (Seriously): Duc didn't choose running because he loved it; he chose it because he feared and found it utterly boring. His logic? If something is that unappealing, it must be exactly what he needed to break his cycle of illness. Spoiler alert: it worked. Running as Radical Honesty & Meditation: For Duc, ultra-running isn't about medals or bragging rights. It's a “privileged playground” to practice mindfulness and be brutally honest with yourself. When you're 100 miles in, there's no facade left—just you, your breath, and your footsteps. He shares how this practice bleeds into everyday life. The Power of the DNF: In a world obsessed with finishing, Duc offers a refreshing perspective. He finds deep satisfaction in his Did Not Finishes (DNFs) because the races that cause them are often the most fascinating and transformative. It's not about the result; it's about the raw, unfiltered experience. Tips from the Maverick: For Motivation: Sign up for races! Duc calls them “valid excuses” to get out the door and commit. The financial investment and the start line are powerful motivators. For Mental Toughness: When your mind starts to wander (especially when you're tired or in pain), gently bring it back to the basics: your breath, your footsteps, or the simple rhythm of your movement. Counting or focusing on colours can help. For Race Strategy (His Way): Don't fight your need for sleep in ultras. Duc, a self-described “big sleeper,” prioritises 1.5-2 hour chunks of quality sleep over micro-naps during 200-milers. Find what works for your body. For Injury Prevention (Maybe): Being a slow runner might be his secret. Duc credits his lack of serious injuries to not pushing for speed, which puts less strain on the body. He's also transitioning more to trails for their softer impact and muscle variety. The Golden Rule: “There's a million ways [to run ultras], and there are a lot of ways that I have not even thought of just yet.” Your path is yours alone. Experiment and find what feels right. Duc's Next Big Adventures: He's eyeing the gruelling Volstead 500K in the US (because it sounds “boring as hell”) and is determined to conquer the Tour de Trails after two DNFs. His cunning plans for these are already in the works! Connect with Duc: Duc's  LinkTree (all his links) - https://linktr.ee/ducdo

Twenty twenty-five has been a record-breaker for energy deals - over four hundred billion dollars in acquisitions, the highest in three years. But buried in all those massive oil and gas mergers is a quieter revolution happening in the wind fields of the world. It started in March last year when Macquarie Capital, the Australian investment giant, made a move that sent ripples through the wind industry. They acquired Onyx Insight, a British company that had been quietly revolutionizing how wind turbines are monitored. Onyx wasn't just another tech startup - they were monitoring seventeen thousand turbines across thirty countries, serving seven of the world's top ten wind operators. Macquarie knew what they were buying. This wasn't just about the technology - it was about the data. In the wind business, data is the new oil, and Onyx had been collecting it from turbines spinning from Texas to Tasmania. But Macquarie wasn't finished. A few days ago, Onyx announced they had acquired Eleven-i, a smaller British firm run by Bill Slatter. While Onyx could monitor most parts of a wind turbine, they had a critical blind spot: the blades themselves. Slatter had spent six years perfecting sensors that could detect blade problems weeks before they became catastrophes. His technology had successfully spotted a crack smaller than one meter, three weeks before the most sophisticated drones could see it. In an industry where a single blade failure can cost millions and shut down entire wind farms, that's pure gold. Here's what they don't tell you about the wind industry: it's not just about building bigger turbines anymore. As these giants grow longer than football fields and taller than skyscrapers, they're failing in ways nobody anticipated. Blade detachment, tower collapse, catastrophic gearbox failures - the list goes on. The smart money - and we're talking about some of the biggest infrastructure funds in the world - has figured out that the real value isn't in building more turbines. It's in keeping the ones already spinning from falling apart. The math is simple: artificial intelligence and data centers are driving electricity demand through the roof. The U.S. could see data centers consuming twelve percent of all electricity by twenty twenty-eight. That's staggering demand that can't wait for new power plants to be built. So investors are swarming companies that can squeeze more power out of existing infrastructure. Onyx, with its Macquarie backing, can now offer wind farm operators something they've never had: a complete picture of their turbine's health from the foundation to the blade tips. The Eleven-i acquisition fits perfectly into Macquarie's broader energy strategy. They've been on a buying spree - solar developers, waste management companies, renewable energy platforms. In Australia alone, they've completed sixty-five acquisitions across the energy sector. But here's the bigger picture: the wind industry is consolidating at breakneck speed. Just like oil and gas, where the top fifty companies have been whittled down to forty through mega-mergers, renewable energy is heading the same direction. The survivors won't be the companies that build the most turbines. They'll be the ones that can keep them spinning reliably for twenty, thirty,

In this powerhouse episode, we meet Gayle Cowling, who didn't run a step until her mid-30s—and now? She's completed multiple 100Ks, a 100-miler, and even a 500K multi-day stage race through remote South Australia (and danced into the finish line to Nutbush City Limits

In this episode, we talk to Stephanie Lake. The former dancer turned choreographer is the artistic director of Stephanie Lake Company, and also the resident choreographer for The Australian Ballet. She’s the winner of many awards, including the Helpmann, and while her rise was stratospheric, it wasn’t always linear. It was also somewhat delayed: Lake was a late bloomer in her chosen field, dancing in her teenage years only as a hobby. Her life story starts in Canada, before taking a turn south to Tasmania, and now Melbourne. Hosting this conversation – about a journey rich in resilience, creativity and balance – is Good Weekend senior writer Konrad Marshall.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There's more to meat than what Aussies might think. After graduating from uni, Sophie Marriott couldn't wait to leave the bright lights of Brisbane to explore the seemingly endless opportunities in red meat processing.

Some conversations feel like soul connections, and that's exactly how I felt sitting down with Dr. Erica Kreismann. Her journey from emergency medicine in New York—beginning just months before 9/11—to packing up her family and moving across the world to Tasmania is nothing short of remarkable. Through it all, what stands out most is her adventurous spirit, her heart for service, and her deep belief in the power of presence.In our conversation, Erica shares how burnout pushed her to reimagine life, what Tasmania taught her about slowing down, and why connection—whether with patients, colleagues, or loved ones—is the true heartbeat of healing. We talk about embracing fear as part of growth, letting go of judgment to make space for curiosity, and the life-changing shift that comes when you finally choose to fill your own cup first.A few gems you'll hear along the way:Why learning to be present is one of the greatest skills we can practiceHow fear isn't a sign to stop—it's an invitation to step forward with courageThe radical responsibility we must take for our healing and growthErica's story is a powerful reminder that life is an adventure meant to be lived fully, even when it feels uncertain.– Connect with Dr. Erica Kreismann:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/erica-kreismann/Website: https://www.onewildcoaching.com/ –Connect with Deanna:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/deannaherrin/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deanna-herrin/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedeannaherrinWebsite: http://www.deannaherrin.net
