Send us Fan MailThis week on the Montana Outdoor Podcast your host Downrigger Dale caught up with 2 members of the USA Ice Fishing Team just before they left for Piteå Sweden For the World Ice Fishing Championship. Rigger had a fascinating talk with Thane Melton from Big Fork, MT who is the Vice President of the team and Joe Martinez from Utah who is the President of the team. The World Ice Fishing Tournament will take place on March 28th and 29th in Piteå, Sweden. The town of Piteå, Sweden is about the size of Kalispell Montana and is less than 100 miles from the Arctic Circle, so yes they still have ice. About 40 inches of it. You think that is wild just wait until you watch or listen to this podcast and hear the rules for this tournament. Let's put it this way, they run their tournaments quite a bit different than we do! Oh, by the way, part of those rules include that you can not use any powered augers! Yup all holes in the ice must be drilled with a hand operated auger. That 40 inches of ice does not sound so good now does it? Do not miss this podcast.

Send us a textPeople call Macbeth a monster. But Shakespeare's trick is sharper than that: he shows you a man who can still choose—and then shows you the exact moment he starts outsourcing his choices to ambition, marriage, and prophecy.Macbeth—thane, hero, newly honored… and about to discover that wanting something is not the same as deserving it.Now to most of you in the United States, the word THANE might be unfamiliar. It simply means a basically a Scottish noble—a trusted local lord who holds land from the king and, in return, owes loyalty and military service.So when you hear “Macbeth, Thane of Glamis” (and later “Thane of Cawdor”), think:Title + job: a high-ranking lordPower base: he rules an area/estate for the kingObligation: he's expected to fight for the king and keep orderStatus: important, but below the king (not royalty)So you can think of “Thane” as “Lord.”Macbeth is Lord of Glamis, then gets promoted to Lord of Cawdor.In other words, “A thane is a king's landholding lord—part governor, part military commander.”The play begins with the three witches, and it just makes common sense to begin by interviewing them. Notice how the witches don't “force” Macbeth—but they weaponize suggestion: they speak in a way that makes Macbeth supply the missing steps. They plant a framework (“you are destined”), then let his ambition build the staircase.But first let me briefly quote from the very beginning of the play where the three witches - also known as weird sisters - speakFIRST WITCH When shall we three meet again?In thunder, lightning, or in rain?SECOND WITCH When the hurly-burly's done,When the battle's lost and won.THIRD WITCH That will be ere the set of sun.FIRST WITCH Where the place?SECOND WITCH  Upon the heath.THIRD WITCH There to meet with Macbeth.FIRST WITCH  I come, Graymalkin.SECOND WITCH  Paddock calls.THIRD WITCH  Anon.ALL Fair is foul, and foul is fair;Hover through the fog and filthy air.Support the showThank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.

Today, we journey beneath the mountains of Krynn, into the ancient halls of Thorbardin, to tell the story of the dwarf who reunited a broken people—Glade Hornfel Kytil, Thane of the Hylar, and the first King of Thorbardin since the Cataclysm. Buy Dwarven Kingdoms of Krynn: https://www.dmsguild.com/en/product/16962/dwarven-kingdoms-of-krynn-2e?affiliate_id=50797  https://youtu.be/oQQ6o7em540 Transcript Cold Open He was not born a king. He ruled a kingdom that did not yet believe in kings. And when the world above called for aid, he answered—even if it meant marching into legend, and never returning. Intro Welcome to another DragonLance Saga episode. My name is Adam, and today I'm going to talk about the life of Thorbardins King, Glade Hornfel Kytil. I'd like to take a moment and thank the DLSaga members and Patreon patrons, and invite you to consider becoming a member or patron–you can even pick up Dragonlance media or get $10 by signing up to StartPlaying.Games using my affiliate links. I'm referencing DL4 Dragons of Desolation, War of the Lance Sourcebook, Chronicles, Lost Chronicles, Stormblade and The Last Thane for this information. If I leave anything out or misspeak, please leave a comment below. Discussion Very little is known about the early life of Glade Hornfel Kytil. His parentage is unrecorded in the histories of Thorbardin, an unusual omission in a culture that prizes ancestry and clan lineage above almost all else. What is known is that he was Hylar, and that he rose not through blood alone, but through merit, resolve, and an unyielding sense of duty. One of the few recorded family connections is his cousin, Baker Whitegranite, a dwarf he trusted deeply—so deeply, in fact, that Baker would one day be left in charge of Thorbardin itself. Even in his early years, Hornfel distinguished himself as a warrior and leader, personally leading Hylar troops against riots instigated by the Theiwar and Daergar clans. These were not symbolic actions—he fought in the tunnels, weapon in hand, earning the scars that would later mark his arms as a badge of hard-won authority. Unlike many of his fellow thanes, Glade Hornfel believed that dwarven isolation was a slow death sentence. Since the Cataclysm, Thorbardin had turned inward, sealing itself away from the world above. To Hornfel, this was not preservation—it was stagnation. Time and again, he argued before the Council of Thanes that the dwarves must rejoin the world, reopening trade and forging alliances beyond their mountain halls. These efforts met fierce resistance. Only through cooperation with Gneiss Truesilver, Thane of the Daewar, did any trade at all manage to resume. Hornfel knew the danger. He feared that pushing too hard, too fast, would ignite a civil war that Thorbardin could not survive. And so he walked a careful path—pressing forward, but never recklessly. One of the clearest signs of Hornfel's open-mindedness came with the arrival of a human named Jordy, known among the dwarves simply as Piper. In a kingdom deeply suspicious of outsiders, Hornfel gave his word for the man's safety. Among dwarves, a sworn word carries immense weight. By staking his honor on a human, Hornfel demonstrated not only his belief in cooperation, but his confidence in his own judgment of character—a trait for which he was widely respected. When the War of the Lance reached Thorbardin, Glade Hornfel ruled as Thane of the Hylar and presided over the Council of Thanes. During this time, a kingsword named Stormblade was forged for him by Isarn Hammerfell and his apprentice, Stanach Hammerfell—a weapon meant to symbolize unity and rightful rule. But Stormblade's story became a tragedy. The sword was stolen, lost in the wilderness beyond Thorbardin, recovered, returned… and then stolen again—this time by Realgar, a derro agent secretly serving Verminaard. When Hornfel confronted Realgar, the dispute ended not with words, but with violence. The two fought, and Realgar fell to his death—plummeting into the depths, taking his ambitions with him. Despite his authority, Hornfel understood that Thorbardin would never truly unite until a symbol greater than any sword was restored: the Hammer of Kharas. When the Heroes of the Lance arrived seeking shelter, Hornfel struck a bargain. In exchange for sanctuary, they would recover the Hammer. They succeeded. Before a massive assembly of dwarves—Hylar, Daewar, Theiwar, and Daergar alike—the Hammer of Kharas was presented to Glade Hornfel Kytil. In that moment, centuries of division ended. He was crowned King of Thorbardin, the first since the Cataclysm. Not by conquest. Not by bloodline. But by unity. When Chaos invaded Krynn, Glade Hornfel did not remain behind his walls. True to his belief that dwarves were part of the world—not apart from it—he led an army of Hylar warriors to fight in the Chaos War. He left Thorbardin in the capable hands of Baker Whitegranite and marched to war alongside the Knights of Solamnia and the Knights of Takhisis. What happened next is shrouded in silence. The fate of Hornfel and his army remains unknown. All were presumed lost—wiped out in the war against Chaos itself. No body was ever recovered. No final battle recorded. Only absence. Glade Hornfel Kytil was shorter than most dwarves, but possessed a commanding presence. His hawk-like brown eyes, regal bearing, and well-groomed silver beard marked him as a leader long before he wore a crown. He was a master of both sword and tongue—an impeccable judge of character, a master debater, and a leader who resolved countless internal conflicts without bloodshed. His handwriting was thin and precise, much like his thinking. He was loved by his people. Hated by his dark cousins. And respected even by those who disagreed with him. Above all else, Hornfel believed in a future where dwarves stood shoulder to shoulder with the world once more—and he intended to see that future realized in his lifetime. Outro But that is all the time I have to talk about Glade Hornfel Kytil. What do you think of the first King of Thorbardin since the Cataclysm? Should the dwarves have opened their gates to outsiders? And since history remembers Glade Hornfel Kytil, he couldn't have been killed by the Daemon Warriors. Could his remains still be out there?

My name is Adam and today I am going to give you my review of The Search for Magic edited by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman. I would like to take a moment and thank the DLSaga members and Patreon patrons, and invite you to consider becoming a member or patron. You can even pick up Dragonlance media using my affiliate links. This is my perspective only, and if you have any thoughts or disagree with mine, I invite you to share them in YouTube chat. Review All For a Pint by Brian Murphy Stynmar, wizard, White robe Grantheous, wizard, Red robe Fetlin, apprentice Gerald, archmagus, Black robe This was a delightful tale about two mages, former white and red robes, who decided to make a profile, and improve the nature of those who consumed it, by casting a spell on beer. This spell is meant to improve one’s disposition, but they had to test various strengths of the spell. One had minotaurs tickle fighting each other. Another had a aman mooning them then running down the street. They finally perfected the spell, and it was stolen from them that night! THey chased who they believed stole it and it led to a warehouse where the thief talked with a black robed wizard and entered it. The two wizards and their apprentice went into a nearby tavern and had a frew pints before bursting into the door, but the beer they were drinking was their own. They felt wonderful, and after kissing the barmaid, they left ready to break down the warehouse door. As they charged the door, the wizard opened it, causing them to run and roll into the warehouse. The old wizard ended up being their former master, and he scolded them for using the remaining magic to effect beer. To punish them he cast the spell over Palanthas' well, and the entire city had a full day of peace, happiness, and brotherly love. The two mages seemed to learn their lesson, and that was the story. It reminded me of an old short story from the original Tales collection where a kender puts a love potion into Otik's ale and it ends with a love fest in the Inn of the Last Home. It was a nice entry into this collection. The End by Nancy Varian Berberick Jai Windwild, apprentice librarian Annalisse Elmgrace, librarian Marshall Medan Gilthas, puppet king Emeth Windwild, Jai's father, member of the resistance Marise Windwild, Jai's mother Stanach Hammerfell This is about the final days of the Qualinesti. It is focused on a librarian’s assistant Jai, who has spent his young career reading and cataloging the histories of the Quelinesti nation. His master, librarian Annalisse, sees Jai as the best of her assistants. He leaves one night for dinner when his father tells him that they must leave Qualinost. Their relatives are dying and they should all travel to them. In truth, he is part of the resistance and the Dark Knights are close to capturing him, so he arranged this trip. Jai doesn't want to go, but sees no option of staying because he would be caught, tortured and killed. He returns to this library and tells Annalisse where he’s going but that he will be back. When they leave that night, they are stopped as a Dark Knight is waiting on the road. They are teleported and wake in a dwarven tunnel. Stanach Hammerfell greets Jai and leads him down the tunnel toward Thorbadin. He is alone, and doesn't know where everyone else is. Stanach tells him they are with the dwarves, and explains these tunnels were the idea of the Thane and Gilthas. Qualinost is going to fall, sooner rather than later, and the people need safe passage out of Qualinesti. Jai doesn't care and insists on leaving to record the end of Qualinost. Eventually Sanach relents and lets the young elf go, as they are nearing the exit of the tunnel, Annalise's voice is heard directing Dark Knights. It turned out that she bargained for the safety of the library and gave up the plan of the elves leaving and the tunnels under Qualinesti. Stanach and Jai fight them, capture Annalisse and Stanach says that he will wait for Jai. Jai ends up heading home. It reminds me of World War 2 when Nazi Germany was rounding up Jews, Gays, Blacks and anyone they deemed weak. That is what the Dark Knight represents and while going back to Qualinost to witness its end sounds like the height of foolishness, I can understand one’s passion for their home and wanting to be there, even as the world falls apart. The Lost Sea by Linda P. Baker Captain Effram I am torn about this story. For one, it’s written really well. But for another, I don't like the main character at all. This is about Captain Effram, he lives in Tarsis and has built a boat. Tarsis has been landlocked since the Cataclysm, so he is ridiculed by everyone in town for building a ship. The children come and taunt and tease him, and he runs them off, further ruining his reputation among the townsfolk. Then one day a storm came, and it kept raining, and only Effram wore the appropriate clothing for a rain storm and was mocked for it. Then the water began to build on the ground, and soon his ship began to float! He took it out in this massive blinding night storm and was nearly swept out to sea, but managed to turn it back toward Tarsis to see people climbing the ships in the old bay that were repurposed for homes, trying to survive the weather and oncoming seawater. They leapt down toward Effram's ship, and slowly, reluctantly, he turned to bring more people onto his ship. Even as there were more to save, he raced the boar to the docks, and in the massive storm told them to get out. When he turned back to the sea, he saw a woman leap into the ocean, screaming for help, he turned away from her, and sailed into the sea. This character who wanted to be respected and appreciated by the townsfolk, didn’t even want to save them, then abandoned others. His cruelty in their fate was less human and more monstrous. Something I didn't enjoy reading at all. The strength of our species is that when push comes to shove, regardless of any other factor, we help one another. Survival is built into our DNA. It is the aberrant among us that would turn and walk away from someone facing death, when you could save them, yet Effram did just that. The people jibing him did not equal a justified death, and it simply bothered me. Some Assembly Required by Nick o'Donohoe Sorter, gnome Franni, kender The story begins with a gnome named Sorter working in the great repository, sorting the thousands of volumes of gnomish manuals. It showcases a typical day in Mount Nevermind for gnomes, and leads to a Kender named Franni asking a series of questions to Sorter about the books. Later there is a book avalanche and they are afraid the kender was under them, but after clearing it up, they saw no kender, but a few books were missing. So Soter decided he would go after the Kender. He packed traveling clothing and headed out to the closest town with smoke ascending to the sky. A warehouse was burned down and children who were working the warehouse were having a grand time. THey said a Kender came by and burned the warehouse down. The elders told him that the kender left toward their neighboring town, and that the kender should stay there. The gnome went on to the next town which was covered in mud. Its children were also enjoying the destroyed warehouse. Apparently there is fierce trade competition so all these villages suggest visiting the next, to recreate the destruction they experience. The gnome continued on to find the kender in the third village constructing a siege machine. The gnome ended up helping him and it summarily destroyed the town, as all gnome inventions are prone to do. The town leadership paid them to go to the next few towns and create some machines for them and off the gnome and kender went with an idea for a massive Solamnic knife machine. It was a silly story that illustrated the dire consequences of gnomish technology and the curiosity and free spiritedness of Kneder and the wildly dangerous combination of them both together. Go with the Floe by Paul B. Thompson Raegel Mixun, mixundantalus Balic Persayer, captain Wheeler, gnome Slipper, gnome Excellent Continental Ice Project Artagor, pirate captain This was a fun story about two snake oil salesmen who regularly conned people and were caught in a con by a ship captain and marooned on the icewall. Destined to die there, with the cold nearly doing the task, they were awoken by the terrible and loud sound of gnomish machinery! The gnomes took them aboard their great ice cutting wheels and entered Nevermind South. A temporary camp where the gnomes could cut miles of glacier ice and transport it to Sancrist. Stunned by the audacity of the gnomes but happy to be alive, the two men go with the gnomes. They end up breaking the miles size glacier off and use the wheel machines to paddle it north. As they pass Enstar, pirates come about and try to rob them, but the gnomes have no treasure, only tools and the two con men have nothing of value. Frustrated, the pirate captain decides to kill the two, but a cyclone is building off the coast and hits suddenly. The iceberg is dashed to the shore of Enstar and breaks to pieces. Ruining the gnomes’ plans, but industrious as ever, they get back to work, collecting gear and coming up with new plans. The con men approach a town, talk about the ice that’s on the shore and sell it, and they convince the people to pay for the ice! Then they decide to help the gnomes and make a living selling ice across Ansalon. Again, just a silly and fun story that was way more entertaining than I expected it to be. The Great Gully Dwarf Climacteric of 40 S.C. by Jeff Crook Dr. Palaver, gnome Morgrify Pinchpocket, kender Whortleberry Pinchpocket, kender, Morgrify's cousin Gulps Bulps Shadow Dragon The story begins with two Kender running from a mob. They break into the gnomish district and burst into a gnomes home where he was staying late. The gnome, Dr. Palaver is asked to cure Morgrify's cousin, Whortleberry. He is an afflicted kender and it seemed to have come upon him very recently in a tunnel under Palantha filled with Gully Dwarves. The gnome said that he can cure his cousin but they need to face the fear that caused the affliction. They must return to the sewers post haste! The kender and gnome all head to the sewer. They eventually discovered gully dwarves and a massive hole that was supposed to be scary, but it just contained another gully dwarf from the Bulp clan, rather than the Gulps from earlier. He led them to the scariest place he knew of, a shadow dragon! The dragon had been making the Aghar make smoke for it to consume, or it would consume them. It breathed its terrifying smoke, blinding and disorienting everyone, and the kender quickly had Whort drink the heroic potion that doctor gnome said would cure his fright. He drank it and sunbeams, rainbows and spring flowers sprang from every orifice on his body, forcing the dragon back into its lair. He began taunting it finally able to speak, and his fear subsided, he dragged the gnome and Mordrify to the surface, but the spring scented flowers were too much for the Aghar and they fled in mass into the city, killing pets and one homeless man before running off into the docks, sinking ships and killing themselves and fish. It was a massive cacophony, and in the end Whort brought the gnome doctor and his uncle to another gnome doctor to cure their blindness. This was a silly story, but I am now thinking this whole collection is just about Kender, Gully Dwarves or Gnomes. Bond by Kevin T. Stein Karn, scout Blood, Karn's Wulfbunde Brek Arana Canus, bond between wolf and man Jaren Syllany The Forsaken, former Wulfbunde from previous story This is a disjoined tale that is a sequel to an even more disjointed tale about the Wulfbunde, apparently in the Age of Might, The Dark Queen gave power to men who followed Canus? And could form bonds with wolves. In the aftermath of the Chaos War, they hunted teh agents of chaos. The previous story has a Wulfbunde kill his wolf rather than see him consumed by Chaos and he became The Forgotten, though in that story he was condemned to the Abyss, if memory serves. Now he is out and terrorizing the land around the Lords of Doom. The five scout Wulfbunde are now hunting him, though he is incredibly powerful. We are presented with Karn, a scout and his wolf blood. They have an uneasy relationship, and he actually beats the wolf, which bugs the shit out of me. If you share a bond with something, you don't physically assault or abuse that something. Period. And in general, violence against animals is verboten for most people. So they go after the Forgotten, have bunch of awkward moments between Blood and Karn that I do not fully understand as the writing is not much better than the last short story, and Blood ends up breathing in The Forgottens face, making him kinda go crazy then start crying, I imagine for the absence of his wolf. And Karn reflects that the Dark cannot break the bond between a man and his wolf. This could all have been so much better if they were more clear in the writing about what the hell is going on. It's frustrating. A Twist of the Knife by Jean Rabe Shiv, male assassin, Safford Risana, woman, Solamnic Knight Redlant Fever This is a wonderful short story about an assassin named Shiv that was hired by Dark Knights to find and eliminate a Solamnic knight that is healing plagued villagers around Neraka. The former knight, a woman named Risana, actually deserted the knights after they were ambushed by dark knights. She was thought to be killed, and just walked away. Decided to heal others rather than kill them. This however created a myth in the area about Solamnic Knights and has some locals leaving to join them, and turn against the Dark Knights. So Shiv was t o eliminate her. He saw her tend wounded and saw that she truly cared about this, and it endeared her to him. They continued from village to village traveling together, even fighting off assassins that were sent to kill her, thinking Shiv was dead or taking too long. He would fight for her at first because she was his mark, but later because he respected her. In the end, he deserted his contract and swore to protect her until he died. I really loved that this old assassin could be touched by a woman who had a singleminded purpose, not for gods or oaths, but because it’s what she was passionate about. I really enjoyed the story. Jean Rabe is really growing on me with these short stories of hers. Hunger by Richard A. Knaak Master Brudas, Bozak Ruins of Krolus Sable, Black Dragon Drek, Baaz Molgar, Baaz Gruun, Baaz Oh man, this was fun. It's about the souls of the dead who were stealing magic from magical items and casters before the War of Souls on behalf of Takhisis. A Bozak and three baaz were searching for magical artifacts for Sable, the black dragon overlord in a sunken ruined city of Krolus. The Baaz were excavating the site as the Bozak was dreaming of finding items of power that he could leave Sable’s service. He tries to emulate the Aurak draconians he admired and relished his ability to cast spells even though they have been failing recently. The bozak returns with knowledge of a cavern and Brudas the bozak goes to investigate. He finds a bracelet of Chemosh with two black gems. It allows him to see the undead ghosts that are all around him, begging for power. Over the next few days it drives him near insane. Whenever he tries to cast a spell to banish or dispel the undead, they take the power, ruining the spell. He orders the Baaz to throw the gems away that were in the bracelet and it makes him unable to see the ghosts. But he can still imagine them, and feel them. How oh so many of them were around him, pleading. He chases the gems down and drowns. The baaz return to Sable and deliver the bracelet, and Sable is pleased, but cannot see the hoards of spirits around her, taking her magic as well as the bracelets. It’s so wonderfully creepy to think of the unseen spirits stealing your essence, and that of your items. Such a cool set up for the War of Souls. Knaak did a great job with this story. Product Given for Services Rendered by Don Perrin Gnash, dark knight brothers, disserters Yarl, dark knight brothers, deserters Flannery, old man in robes Digger Cutterstone, dwarf This was a wonderful tale about two brothers who turned in their parents, who were clerics of Paladine, to the Knights of Takhisis and came upon an old man in robes and a dwarf. They were burying the dead and taking their weapons and armor. They offered to share their supper with the brothers and told them that they commended the souls of the dead to the gods and in return took the swords and armor and melted them into steel coins for the bank of palanthas. They wanted to do the same for the Knights of Takhisis but did not know the burial rites. The brothers pulled weapons on them and started to rob them, but the old man offered to split the money with them if they helped by telling them how to comment the souls to Takhisis. The brothers flippantly told them, and then the priest did it to them, and they dropped dead. It turned out that they were skeletons the old man was trying to destroy and take their armor. Once he learned the rite, he could do the same to others. Such an interesting twist and tale about the aftermath of battle and the creation of steel as a currency. Dragon's Throat by Donald Bingle Finderkeeper Rumpleton, kender Gimmie Glacier Vern Hasterck, Knight of Takhisis Commander Bodar, Ice Nomad Thrak D.Nar, Ice Nomad Garn, Ice Nomad This is an interesting tale about the Icewall Glacier being the primary character, and everyone else secondary. The glacier grows north, then melts south revealing objects that were left in the ice from wars or travelers who never made it across. This ends up being a pilgrimage site for Kender, but in the Age of Mortals, Dark Knights also would travel the area in southern Plains of Dust. One day a kender named Finderkeeper Rumpleton passed through and found a strangely shaped object, instantly claiming it as Irda Magic. This sent the other kender in a frenzy of questions and nearby Dark Knights demanding the object. THey chased the Kender across the glacier till he believed he lost them, and stumbled across an ice nomad and his sons who were hunting wooly mammoths. They helped the kender for the night then when the dark knights showed up again, helped him run from them. They led them to a valley that would floor periodically and one of the sons went to help it along as the Dark knights were camping in the valley during their pursuit. It flooded the valley, consuming the son as well, but the Dark Knight Commander escaped and continued pursuit, eventually catching up to the kender and nomads. They fought as best they could but the Dark knight overwhelmed the nomads, killing them, but eventually got stuck in some mud, freezing to death as he was trying to cut his own legs off to get out. This was all relayed to the nomad clan by a bard, who was the kender. It’s more of an environmental tale of the natural dangers of a living glacier, and I for one enjoyed that approach. This was an interesting collection, with a few really good stories. If you are a Dragonlance fan, I would recommend you taking the time to read this anthology.

The supplement certification landscape is evolving, and Episode #193 of the PricePlow Podcast brings you to the forefront of this transformation. We sit down with Lori Bestervelt, Ph.D., and Thane Campbell from TruShieldâ„¢ Certified, a new certification service that’s challenging the status quo by focusing exclusively on comprehensive banned substance testing. With Lori’s 22 years creating industry standards at NSF International (including the foundational NSF 173 standard) and Thane’s expertise from SMRTL (one of only two WADA-experienced anti-doping laboratories in the United States), they’re introducing a certification approach that tests for well over 400 prohibited substances, including entire drug classes like glucocorticoids and HIF stabilizers that other programs overlook. TruShieldâ„¢ Certified: Finished Product Drug-Testing from an Elite Lab Unlike traditional bundled certification programs that require brands to repeat testing across multiple areas they may already have covered, TruShield takes a streamlined approach by focusing solely on what athletes and tested individuals need most: certainty that their supplements are free from banned substances. The conversation explores the evolution of performance-enhancing substances from prohormones to SARMs to peptides, the challenges of cross-contamination in manufacturing, and why the certification industry hasn’t kept pace with modern supply chain realities. Whether you’re a brand looking to protect athletes or a consumer wanting transparency about what’s in your supplements, this episode delivers critical insights into the future of supplement safety.

The Ecclesia Domestica retreat in Crookston

When Shakespeare wrote Macbeth, he opened with a powerful line: “All hail, Macbeth! Hail to thee, Thane of Glamis.” But what did “Thane of Glamis” mean to his audience? Was Glamis Castle simply a dramatic choice, or a recognizable symbol of royal power and Scottish history? This week, we're joined by Ingrid Thomson, Archivist at Glamis Castle, to explore the castle's history during Shakespeare's lifetime, its royal connections, ghostly legends, and how its story continues to shape the way we experience Shakespeare's play today. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022 brought a tragic close to a thirty-year period of history that began with the collapse of the Soviet Union and the reopening of Russia to the West after six decades of Soviet isolation. The opening lasted for three tumultuous decades and ended with a new closing, driven by the Ukrainian war, the imposition of Western sanctions, and the Russian responses to them. In Perfect Storm: Russia's Failed Economic Opening, the Hurricane of War and Sanctions, and the Uncertain Future (Oxford University Press, 2025), Russia analyst Thane Gustafson reinterprets the story of Russia's failed opening to the West, focusing on its economic, technological, and social aspects, and the role they played in its ultimate failure. These parallel events are essential for understanding what happened and what went wrong. Yet they have received much less attention than the military and geopolitical aspects of the current conflict. Gustafson tells the story of the West's entry into Russia, the arrival of Russians into the West, and the conflicting emotions and responses these aroused on both sides, contributing to the ultimate breakdown of relations and the unprecedented hurricane of Western sanctions. The book concludes with an examination of possible futures under a new generation of leaders. A measured and nuanced account of the evolution of Russia's economic relations with the world, Perfect Storm illuminates the longer history of Russia's opening to the West, from its achievements and disappointments to the complexity of the post-invasion sanctions regime and Russia's responses to them. Thane Gustafson is Professor of Government at Georgetown University. He is the author of many books, including Klimat (2021), The Bridge (2020), and Wheel of Fortune (2012).
