Podcasts about Nepal

In this episode of Varn Vlog, you and Brandon Lightly analyze the failures of the "New Democracy" and "National Front" strategies as globalized Marxist frameworks.Key points include:Indonesia: D.N. Aidit's PKI collapsed because they mistakenly empowered a mass movement while failing to neutralize the military's hostile command structure.The Philippines: The NDFP's program prioritized state-regulated capitalism and tariff protection for domestic bourgeoisie over systemic socialist transformation.Nepal: The Maoist party utilized the "New Democracy" label to justify transitioning into a standard, market-dependent capitalist state after 2006.Right-Wing Inversion: The organizational structures of popular fronts and Leninist centralization have been repurposed by right-wing movements to advance integral nationalism and corporate-welfare states.Works Cited:Foundations of the United, Popular, and National FrontsFourth Congress of the Communist International.

Nepal, New Mexico, Thailand, the East Coast, Hawaii. Now Mexico and north. The water events keep coming. A hot spot in the equatorial ocean is changing the jet stream and bringing a super el nino. This is just the beginning as Earth begins to rebalance and heal. The message is 3-fold: prepare for areas of massive flooding, affecting farm lands, the food and clean water supply, and we need to unify and help everyone in order that all may survive.

Spiritual warfare is real and as Christian leaders, we need to understand what that warfare looks like. The Apostle Paul provides a brilliant overview in his letter to the Ephesians. God has equipped us to fight the good fight and we have everything that we need to come out victorious, as well as leading our people well.Resource Highlight- This Lingering DarknessDavid and Annie are serving the Lord in the US, Africa, India, Nepal and South America.

As Nepal deals with the aftermath of devastating floods, there have been renewed warnings about the impact of climate change on the Himalayas. As temperatures have risen, glaciers across the region have shrunk and the landscape has become more unstable. Antonia Bolingbroke-Kent reports from one remote Nepalese mountain community that faces an existential threat from a melting glacier. The ancient village of Halji, near the Tibetan border, is home to a thousand year-old Buddhist monastery, one of the oldest in Nepal. But high above the village, meltwater has created glacial lakes . In 2011, parts of the village were destroyed when a glacial lake burst and sent a torrent of water and rocks down the valley. Other communities in the area have abandoned their homes, yet here villagers remain. So why are they determined to stay?

Nepal is still reeling from the devastation caused by recent flash floods. More than a thousand people are reported to have lost their lives and thousands more are still missing. The physical impact is extensive with many hydropower stations, providing the country's main source of energy, either damaged or destroyed. The floods have also severely impacted Nepal's other major industries including tourism. The concern now is that the billions of dollars required for Nepal to get back on its feet go way beyond its own resources. And reconstruction will mean elevating those measures required for monitoring and responding to future geological hazards and climate change. But right now, the country's road to recovery appears long, costly and almost impossible. So just how can Nepal's economy rebuild after floods?Contributors: Dr Neera Shrestha Pradhan, water and disaster risk reduction lead, International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development, Patan, Nepal Dr Dinesh Paudel, professor of sustainable development, Appalachian State University, North Carolina, USA Santosh Nepal, researcher in water resources and climate change, International Water Management Institute, Lalitpur, Nepal Ritu Bharadwaj, director climate resilience, finance and loss & damage, International Institute for Environment and Development, London, UK(Photo: An aerial view of houses surrounded by mud, rocks and debris following flash floods in Betravati village, Rasuwa, Nepal.

Three friends arrive in Nepal determined to conquer Mera Peak before their vacation days run out. They have climbing experience, a tight budget, and every reason to believe the warnings about an off-season ascent are overly cautious. Clear skies and easy progress seem to prove them right. Then the snow begins, an injury slows their pace, and one of them claims a stranger has been watching him sleep inside his tent. There are no unfamiliar tracks outside, and his companions are reluctant to believe him. But as visibility dwindles and the distance between the climbers grows, the possibility that someone is following them becomes harder to dismiss. High on the mountain, with the weather closing in, they must decide how much they can trust one another—and what they are willing to believe before it is too late.Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/

Midlife doesn't need to be a point of crisis, says author Gabrielle Moss. You don't need to make dangerous choices, blow things up, take a spiritual trek through Nepal, or buy a red convertible. Her new book, Mid-Life Plot Twist, co-written with Lindsay Goldwert, explores how to set boundaries, re-evaluate relationships with work and money and love, and get on a better track. Gaby arrived at this wisdom through personal experience and she tells us of a childhood spent in that one scary house on the block, parents who got in screaming fights with waiters, and generally living in both chaos and depression. Healing from an alcohol dependency and an ADHD diagnosis helped Gaby understand both her past and her habits and with the help of therapy she got things turned around. Gaby has mended things with her father, who has undergone his own journey of self-improvement, but she has cut off contact with her mother, whose toxicity still boils.Thank you to all our listeners who support the show as monthly members of Maximum Fun.Check out our I'm Glad You're Here and Depresh Mode merchandise at the brand new merch website MaxFunStore.com!Hey, remember, you're part of Depresh Mode and we want to hear what you want to hear about.

What does it take to turn a screenplay into a terrifying feature film? On this episode of The Writers Hangout, host Sandy welcomes Daniel Byers, writer and director of Dark Hollow, an independent folk-horror film that blends Appalachian folklore, practical creature effects, and a chilling story rooted in the region's coal-mining history.Daniel's screenplay, originally titled Paradise, won the Jury Award at the 2023 Austin Film Festival, helping launch the film's journey to production and distribution. In this fascinating conversation, Daniel takes us behind the scenes of bringing Dark Hollow to life, from developing its terrifying creature to filming inside a real coal mine and using cutting-edge virtual production technology to create otherworldly environments.Daniel also shares how his unusual childhood, growing up in Rwanda, Nepal, and Appalachia, influenced his storytelling and fascination with horror. He discusses his early love of monsters, his years as a documentary filmmaker, and how the landscapes and cultures he experienced helped shape the visual world of Dark Hollow.For writers and aspiring filmmakers, this episode is packed with practical insights, including why a screenplay should be treated as a literary work rather than simply a blueprint, why rewriting continues throughout production and editing, and what Daniel learned from cutting nearly a third of his original film during the editing process.We also explore the realities of independent filmmaking, the challenges of securing distribution, the importance of marketing, and how changes in the streaming industry are affecting filmmakers. Daniel offers thoughtful advice on film school, finding mentors, building a creative community, and why assembling the right team can be just as important as writing a great script.Plus, Daniel shares his approach to a productive writing day, how he handles writer's block, what happens when a real cat refuses to follow directions on set, and his thoughts on the emerging world of vertical filmmaking.Whether you're a screenwriter, an aspiring director, an independent filmmaker, or a horror fan curious about what happens behind the camera, this episode offers an entertaining and insightful look at the creative and business sides of making movies.In this episode, we discuss:Daniel's extraordinary childhood in Rwanda, Nepal, and Appalachia.How his early experiences inspired his love of monsters and horror.The story behind Dark Hollow and its award-winning screenplay.Creating a terrifying creature with practical effects and CGI.Filming in a real coal mine and using virtual production technology.How a screenplay evolves through writing, production, and editing.Why some of the best storytelling happen in scenes that never make the final cut.The challenges of independent film financing, distribution, and marketing.What aspiring screenwriters should know about film school and finding mentors.Why building a strong creative team is essential to filmmaking.The pros and cons of vertical storytelling and short-form content.Daniel's writing routine, creative rituals, and advice for overcoming writer's block.About Daniel ByersDaniel Byers is a screenwriter, director, and filmmaker with a background in documentary filmmaking.

What can a devastating Himalayan avalanche teach us about climate change—and about the growing role of artificial intelligence in scientific research?In this episode, Dr. David Legates examines claims that a catastrophic 2026 avalanche in Nepal was caused by human-induced climate change. He explains why individual weather and climate events cannot simply be attributed to climate change and puts the disaster in historical context by comparing it with other major glacial and rock-ice avalanches.But the discussion takes an unexpected turn when Dr. Legates examines the research paper that prompted his investigation. The paper was generated entirely by AI and explicitly acknowledged that it had not undergone peer review or human verification. That raises a much larger question: When AI conducts research and produces convincing scientific prose, who is responsible for the claims it makes?Dr. Legates discusses both the promise and limitations of AI as a research tool, arguing that AI can be a powerful force multiplier—but that human expertise, critical thinking, and verification cannot be outsourced.https://www.researchgate.net/publication/413842707_The_Nepal_Avalanche_26_Aug_2026_an_unprecedented_event_A_comparative_historical_assessmenthttps://www.stimson.org/2026/a-cascading-disaster-on-the-china-nepal-border-what-to-know-about-the-august-2026-rasuwa-flood/Visit our podcast resource page: https://cornwallalliance.org/listen%20to%20our%20podcast%20created%20to%20reign/Our work is entirely supported by donations from people like you.

A rapid new test for brain tumours can slash the time it takes for an accurate diagnosis from up to eight weeks to two hours. It means surgeons can get results even while they are operating, and patients are spared weeks of uncertainty whilst being able to start their treatment sooner. Also: Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelensky says that President Trump has made a “final decision” to give Ukraine licences to produce patriot missiles. Indonesia pardons a former Filipino maid, who was sentenced to death after being found carrying heroin through an airport. We hear the latest about the Ebola outbreak from a doctor who spent six weeks in Northern Congo. Nepal's Prime Minister, Balendra Shah, says flooding in his country “was a warning to the world” and calls for cooperation to deal with climate change. An organisation in the United Kingdom says better regulation of beauty products is needed as young children continue to use skincare and makeup. And Pope Leo visits Paris for a mass, but his first engagement gives a warning about artificial intelligence and assisted dying.

After the deadly floods in Nepal this August, researchers rapidly assessed the event and concluded that climate change played a “very strong” role in the catastrophic glacial collapse. We discuss the human toll of the floods and the moral duty of the world to slow the climate crisis and help Nepal adapt.   Also, the 2026 United Nations Climate Summit and Climate Week, which just wrapped up in New York City, took place in the wake of a summer marked by deadly extreme heat, the Nepal flood disaster and a UN report on the inevitable “overshoot” of the 1.5 degree C warming goal. We talk about the disjoint between urgent warnings and pleas for help from vulnerable nations, while countries like the US continue boosting fossil fuels -- amid the rapid growth and cost savings of renewable energy. And a recent study in the journal Scientific Data shows that since 1979, around 12.5 trillion tons of ice have melted from glaciers in Greenland and Antarctica -- enough to cover the entire US in 5 feet of ice. And the melting has been speeding up in the last two decades. We discuss the implications for future melting and global sea level rise. Plus: In addition to storing carbon through photosynthesis, trees have another carbon cycle trick up their sleeve, or rather, bark, and it's been hiding in plain sight. Scientists have discovered that tree bark hosts millions of microbes involved in consuming and producing methane, a powerful greenhouse gas. Learn more about your ad choices.

Nepal's prime minister says his country's recent deadly flooding is a warning to the rest of the world. AP correspondent Donna Warder reports.

Climate change is increasingly being treated not simply as an environmental problem, but as an issue of national security, energy independence, industrial strategy and geopolitics.Fresh from UNGA and Climate Week NYC, climate security analyst Erin Sikorsky joins Nick Breeze to discuss what actually changed during the week.They examine new moves by the UK, EU and Kenya to put climate and ecosystem risks firmly on the security agenda, and why Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the war in Iran and disruption around the Strait of Hormuz have strengthened the strategic case for renewable energy and electrification.But electrification creates its own geopolitical dilemma. With China dominant across important parts of the clean-tech and battery supply chain, Sikorsky discusses how Western governments can reduce fossil-fuel dependency without simply creating a new strategic dependency on China.The conversation also explores climate liability and loss and damage, including Nepal's case and the increasingly difficult question of which countries should pay as the traditional distinction between developed and developing economies becomes harder to sustain.Then they turn to solar geoengineering.Sikorsky explains why SRM is beginning to move beyond its specialist scientific community and into climate-security discussions, and why misunderstanding, mistrust and geopolitical escalation may present risks every bit as important as the underlying technology.Finally, looking towards the developing El Niño, Sikorsky argues that governments have a window in which to prepare for a potentially extraordinary summer — and an opportunity to learn what a warmer future may increasingly look like.

Forces in Ethiopia's northern Tigray region seized three airports this week, only a few days after seven armed and political groups formed an alliance against the government. Also, climate control for art and artifacts accounts for a large share of museum carbon emissions, so museums are introducing new protocols to cut emissions while still protecting their collections. And, a new free database now holds nearly 4 million records of people enslaved in British colonies from the Caribbean to South Africa in the early 1800s. Plus, what's next for Nepal?

You can also see it on YouTube.Devin: What is your superpower?Barron: One of the superpowers I believe I hold is turning a vision into execution.The fight against global hunger remains one of humanity's most urgent challenges. As I discussed with Barron Segar, President and CEO of World Food Program USA, in today's episode, the dynamics have shifted over the last decade. Despite declining government funding and rising costs, Barron remains hopeful—and solutions-driven.“When I started ten years ago, hunger was on the decline,” Barron told me. “Today, we're battling wars, extreme weather events, rising costs, and decreased funding. Yet, we're proud that the U.S. remains a significant contributor while the private sector has stepped up to fill some gaps.”As the representative of the Nobel Peace Prize-winning World Food Program, Barron highlighted how the organization is navigating these changing dynamics. One of its key innovations, he noted, is leveraging partnerships and pre-positioning supplies to respond to emergencies quickly, such as recent events in Nepal and Venezuela. Still, he emphasized, war stands as the leading cause of hunger today, making humanitarian access and supply delivery increasingly difficult.Barron shared an eye-opening statistic: “Over 262 million people today are suffering acute hunger.” This growing crisis, he explained, requires extraordinary efforts and resources to reach those most in need. In war zones like Gaza, the World Food Program is averting famine and feeding hundreds of thousands daily, yet the need remains massive.While discussing hotspots like Gaza, Ukraine, Haiti, and Honduras, Barron painted a vivid picture of the struggles faced by refugees and vulnerable communities forced to flee their homes. Reflecting on his visit to the Ukraine-Poland border shortly after the conflict began, he recalled meeting displaced women, children, and even elderly individuals carrying nothing but their few belongings—and their hope.Barron's optimism remains grounded in action. He credits both resilient frontline workers and scalable, innovative solutions, including cash-based transfers to sustain functioning marketplaces. Moreover, he directed listeners to “JustServe,” a platform helping volunteers address local needs domestically, while encouraging global responsibility.This episode underscored the dire need for collaboration and creative problem-solving to combat hunger and build long-term resilience. Barron's leadership highlights how strategic partnerships and unwavering dedication can drive impactful results—even in the face of unprecedented challenges.tl;dr:Barron Segar highlighted how wars, climate events, and underfunding exacerbate global hunger challenges.Innovations like cash-based transfers and strategic pre-positioning strengthen emergency food delivery.The World Food Program USA engages both governments and private sectors to address funding gaps.Barron emphasized creating a collaborative culture while setting measurable growth goals for leadership success.Hunger relief efforts showcase the need for global and local teamwork to build long-term resilience.How to Develop Vision into Action As a SuperpowerBarron's superpower is his ability to turn vision into action. As he explained in today's episode, “One of the superpowers I believe I hold is turning a vision into execution.” He shared how his role as President and CEO of World Food Program USA requires him to not only articulate ambitious goals but also lead his team toward achieving them. Barron pointed to collaboration, measurable results, and difficult but mission-centered decisions as integral to his execution-focused leadership.One example of this superpower is Barron's plan to dramatically grow private sector funding for the organization. When he started in 2020, the World Food Program USA raised $19 million annually. This year, it will surpass $130 million, with a goal of reaching $250 million annually in the next five years. Barron emphasized measurable outcomes and strategic investments, supported by pro bono insights from the Boston Consulting Group, to drive results.Tips for Developing Vision into Action as a Superpower:Focus on creating a high-performance, collaborative culture of respect, optimism, and accountability.Set ambitious but achievable goals that push you and your team beyond your comfort zone.Communicate strategy clearly and align your resources to maximize impact.Establish measurable key performance indicators to track progress and stay focused.Be prepared to make tough decisions and accept that not everyone will always agree with you.By following Barron's example and advice, you can make vision into action a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileBarron Segar (he/him):President & CEO, World Food Program USAAbout World Food Program USA: The World Food Programme is the 2020 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate and the world's leading humanitarian organization, saving lives in emergencies and using food assistance to build a pathway to peace, stability and prosperity for people recovering from conflict, disasters and the impact of climate extremes.
