Can Britain still defend itself? It sounds like the sort of question once heard in gloomy pubs from men who owned atlases and distrusted decimalisation. Yet here we are, asking it seriously.In this episode of Mark and Pete, we look at Britain's armed forces, the shrinking Army, shortages of personnel, ageing equipment, thin ammunition stocks, delayed defence spending and the uncomfortable possibility that the United Kingdom has spent decades assuming somebody else would deal with the unpleasant bits.Britain still has nuclear weapons, aircraft carriers, submarines, Typhoon jets, intelligence capabilities and capable servicemen and women. This is not a story about helplessness. It is, however, a story about whether a country can keep cutting, postponing and reorganising defence while still expecting the machinery to work when needed. Governments have become fond of strategic reviews. Soldiers, one suspects, would also quite like ammunition.Pete and Mark discuss whether the British Army is now too small, whether the Royal Navy has enough ships, how drone warfare has changed the battlefield, and why conflict is no longer confined to tanks crossing borders. Cyberattacks, sabotage, undersea cables, satellites, energy infrastructure and misinformation all belong to the defence of the realm now. The castle walls have become invisible, which makes neglecting them wonderfully easy.There is also the moral question. A nation cannot praise its armed forces on ceremonial occasions, send them into danger, and then house families badly, delay procurement and hope recruitment improves by magic.The episode takes its theme from Psalm 127: “Except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.” That verse does not excuse poor preparation. Quite the opposite. The watchman must still watch. The city must still be guarded. But national security cannot finally rest in weapons, budgets, speeches or polished men standing beside flags.Can Britain still defend itself? Probably. But “probably” is not usually the word one wants printed across a defence policy.
This past Friday, I had the honor of making my Riptide debut at Typhoon Lagoon during One Magical Weekend, and what a ride it was. From the first splash to the final wave, the energy was absolutely incredible.Now it's time to dive back in. Here's my final 1 hour and 20 minute closing set—packed with big-room energy, uplifting vocals, and plenty of twists and turns along the way.Strap in, hold on tight, and get ready for the ride.

Typhoon Jangmi on Wednesday ripped through the Pacific side of western and eastern Japan after making landfall in the morning, causing flooding and mudslides and leaving dozens of people injured. The typhoon made landfall around 4:30 a.m. in the southern part of Wakayama Prefecture in western Japan, after it passed near Okinawa and Kagoshima prefectures the past two days. At one point, the weather agency issued its highest level 5 flood warning for the Koza River in Wakayama Prefecture, meaning the situation was life-threatening and people needed to ensure their safety immediately.

MONEY FM 89.3 - Prime Time with Howie Lim, Bernard Lim & Finance Presenter JP Ong
A powerful tropical storm is sweeping across Japan, bringing widespread disruption — from Okinawa to Kyushu — with reports of injuries, mass flight cancellations, power outages, and evacuation advisories affecting more than 800,000 people. Now tracking toward Tokyo, Tropical Storm Jangmi raises growing concerns over flooding, transport breakdowns, and possible school closures in one of the world’s busiest cities. How does Jangmi compare to past storms Japan has faced, and are extreme weather events becoming more frequent and severe globally? And what safety measures should you take if you ever find yourself caught in a typhoon? On The Big Story, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Dr Wang Jingy, Assistant Professor, Humanities & Social Studies Education, National Institute of Education, to find out more.

The economy was designed to serve life. At some point, it forgot. This article traces how that happened - through colonial extraction, currency manipulation, and centuries of treating the Earth as an inexhaustible resource - and more importantly, what is already being built in its place. It is also worth naming what is being built against it. Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC), digital identity systems, and the broader technocratic agenda advancing through institutions like the World Economic Forum represent a competing vision of the future - one where economic participation is surveilled, programmable, and ultimately controlled by the few. That is not a regenerative economy. It is the extractive economy in a new interface. The regenerative economy moves in the opposite direction: toward decentralization, sovereignty, reciprocity, and life. From Time Banks in New York to community currencies in Ecuador to worker cooperatives in Spain, it is not a future vision. It is a present reality, waiting to be joined. And while blockchain and regenerative finance are real and important parts of this picture, the regenerative economy is bigger than any single technology. It is a whole-systems redesign - cultural, spiritual, and practical - of how human beings relate to value, to each other, and to all living beings on Earth.A System Feature | Designed to ExtractA president steps up to the podium in Manila, praising the economic progress their country has fulfilled after, what many of us call “ the plandemic”. Outside the auditorium, a young mother carries her child on her hip, knocking on car windows at a red light, eyes down, asking for alms. The applause inside the hall doesn't reach her. It never does.The president says the currency has strengthened. That prices are coming down. Meanwhile, across the city, a farmer named Rodrigo is standing in the field he has worked for thirty years, calculating whether this harvest will cover the loan he took out before the last typhoon swept his crop away. It didn't. This is not an exception to the economic system. It is a feature of it. A reflection of a culture that does not care about those actually in need.Many nations measure their health through GDP - Gross Domestic Product - which essentially dictates whether or not an economy is “progressing.” It runs under one quiet assumption: that the Earth will keep giving. Indefinitely. Without asking anything in return. That before the calculations around supply, demand, and the balance of everything else, all the raw materials are already ideally supplied.The Earth is answering. Typhoons that once came once a generation now arrive like clockwork. Harvests that fed communities for centuries are failing across the Andes, the Sahel, the Mekong delta. The seasons that indigenous peoples read as living calendars have become erratic, unreliable, grieving. None of this is random. It is a response - accurate and proportional - to an economy built on the assumption that extraction has no cost.If we were truly “abundant” financially, we would not have billions of people at risk of starvation, homelessness, and other manifestations of neglect and poverty. The economy was supposed to serve all life. It has forgotten this. And in forgetting it, it has begun to abandon human life itself.The Story We InheritedMoney was supposed to be a promissory note for the gold reserves one actually held. The paper was a symbol - pointing at something real, something held in a vault somewhere, something that could be touched.Then the notes began circulating. And the longer they circulated, the more people forgot what they were pointing to. Eventually, the circulation gave rise to the idea of turning the notes into currency itself. The symbol became the standard. It became backed not by gold, but by story - a story so strong, so repeated, so programmed into every transaction of daily life, that we began to mistake it for the truth.We placed a middleman between ourselves and our needs. And somewhere along the way, we forgot we had done it. Perhaps, by design. Here is what the story never tells you: the gold itself did not arrive innocently.In 1302, Pope Boniface VIII issued Unam Sanctam, declaring papal authority supreme over all earthly power - making the Earth itself, philosophically, ownable. A century and a half later, that claim became economic policy. Dum Diversas (1452) authorized the enslavement of non-Christians across the globe. Romanus Pontifex (1455) granted Portugal the right to colonize and extract across Africa and the New World. Inter Caetera (1493) extended the same to Spain and the Americas.These were the founding economic legislation of the extractive world we live in - all cloaked in religious language.What followed was centuries of forced extraction. Economists Flynn and Giráldez have documented that colonial American silver - mined through indigenous forced labor in Potosí and across Peru and Mexico - became the standard monetary foundation of early global trade. The gold in the vault was never simply there. It was coercively taken.And then, on August 15, 1971, even that material trace was erased. President Nixon closed the gold window, ending the Bretton Woods system and severing the dollar's convertibility to gold. According to the Federal Reserve's own record, the international community was not consulted. From that moment, currency was backed by nothing but the authority of the government printing it.Knowing that we wrote ourselves into this story, we are now remembering that we can write ourselves out of it. Not only by writing new stories, but by reconnecting with stories that existed long before our current economic situation - stories that are still alive, still practiced, still remembered by the communities that never abandoned them.What Has Always WorkedBefore the conquest of certain nations to centralize power into their hands, other societies practiced more communal and regenerative ways of exchanging value. To them, considering other people and the Earth itself was not an ethical add-on. It was integral to the flourishing of their economies.Pre-colonial PhilippinesLong before the Spaniards arrived, the Philippine archipelago was a major hub in the maritime Silk Road - one of Asia's most active trade networks. Communities exchanged with Chinese, Japanese, Arab, and Indian traders at coastal ports and river settlements.The archipelagic geography made it impossible to consolidate wealth in any single place. Different tribes like the Maranao exchanged surplus agricultural produce, textiles, metalware, and forest products through robust barter systems built on kinship ties and alliances among polities. Value moved between two people who chose to relate. No middleman. Mutual trust was the economic infrastructure.Andean PeoplesThe Quechua people organized their economy around a relational foundation that lives in the language itself. Ayni - sacred reciprocity. Minka - collective community work. Randi-Randi - generalized reciprocity, the understanding that what circulates returns. All three connect to the broader principle of Sumak Kawsay: good living in right relationship with community, land, and the living world.Sumak Kawsay does not separate prosperity from the wellbeing of ecosystems. It understands them as one thing. This recognition runs so deep that Ecuador enshrined it as the central guiding principle for its national development in its 2008 constitution - the living legal inheritance of an ancient economy that knew how to stay.Haudenosaunee in North AmericaIn their 1981 formal statement to the United Nations, the Haudenosaunee Council of Chiefs articulated what their communities had practiced for centuries: that the earth was created for all to use, forever - not for the present generation to exhaust. Under their law, land is held by the women of each clan, who farm and care for it for the benefit of future generations.The Haudenosaunee saw land as a responsibility to be stewarded in trust. Anthropologist Kurt Jordan from Cornell University documented their economic practices and described them as “a reasonably sustainable, localized economy” even under intense external pressure. They had embodied communal stewardship long before theories about such things were written down.Southern Africa“I am because we are.”This is Ubuntu - the philosophy at the core of both social and economic life across Southern Africa. Communities in South Africa and Mozambique relied on mutual aid networks, intergenerational knowledge systems, and participatory rituals as practical economic infrastructure. These systems enhanced community cohesion and collective resilience precisely in the moments when extractive economies failed them. They understood, bone-deep, that no human being thrives in isolation.Diversity of Regen Economic SystemsMany communities across continents are actively rebuilding economic systems beyond the extractive model. The following are not theoretical. They are actively running. Hence, the more diversity of economic systems each person and community practices, the more abundant, unbreakable and independent we are from degenerative systems from governments and corporations that want to control it all. The Commons FoundationOne body of research forms the intellectual foundation for nearly all of them: the life's work of Elinor Ostrom, the first woman to receive the Nobel Prize in Economics. Ostrom spent decades documenting over 800 cases of communities successfully governing shared resources - in Switzerland, Kenya, Guatemala, Nepal, and beyond - without either privatization or state control.Her conclusion was simple and radical: communities do not inevitably destroy what they share. Given the right institutional design, they protect it and pass this duty to the next generation. And her eight design principles for successful commons governance - the framework that emerged from all that fieldwork - describe, as she herself acknowledged, the same governance systems that indigenous communities had been practicing for centuries.Her work is not a new idea. It is a confirmation of ancient ones.Regenerative Economics | Beyond ReFi - The Whole-Systems VisionWhen most people first encounter the term “regenerative economy,” they arrive through crypto. Through ReFi - regenerative finance - and the promise of blockchain as a tool for funding ecological restoration, decentralizing power, and making impact transparent. These are real contributions. They matter.But John Fullerton, founder of the Capital Institute and one of the most rigorous thinkers in this field, spent two decades on Wall Street before arriving at a different and more fundamental question: what if the entire framework of modern finance is running in conflict with how life actually works?Fullerton's work focuses on building an economic framework that supports the long-term health of people, communities, and the planet - not by tweaking the existing system, but by replacing its underlying logic. His core argument is that we are running our society in conflict with the patterns and principles that explain how life works.His answer is what he calls regenerative economics: eight principles drawn from living systems science that describe how healthy economies - like healthy ecosystems - actually function. Diversity. Balance. Circular flow. Robust circulation. Surplus financial capital, in his framework, needs to be recycled and regenerated into other forms of capital - natural, social, and cultural. Not hoarded nor extracted. Composted back into the living system that produced it.ReFi, in Fullerton's framing, is one tool within this larger architecture. Blockchain can decentralize power. Tokenized nature credits can make ecological value legible to markets. Community currencies can circulate value locally. But the technology is only as regenerative as the values underneath it. A crypto project built on extraction logic is still extraction, regardless of the chain it runs on.Regenerative economy is not a financial product. It is a civilizational shift - in how we measure wealth, in what we decide to protect, in whose voices count when decisions are made. ReFi is welcome in that shift. It is one current in a much larger river.Time BanksIn Jackson Heights, Queens, a retired nurse named Gloria hasn't touched the formal economy in months for the things that matter most to her. She spends three hours teaching English to a recent immigrant. Those hours become credits. She spends them on home repairs from a neighbor who knows carpentry. He spends his credits on childcare. The loop keeps moving.This is a Time Bank - a community exchange system built on one radical premise: everyone's time is worth the same. One hour of legal advice equals one hour of gardening equals one hour of emotional support. The hierarchy of market wages disappears. What remains is a web of people who need each other.Edgar Cahn, who developed Time Banking in the 1980s after surviving a near-fatal heart attack, called it “co-production” - the idea that the economy needs what the market can never price: care, community, civic participation, the work of raising children and holding elders. Time Banks make that invisible labor visible, and circulate it back into the community that produced it.Today there are over 500 Time Banks operating in more than 30 countries. Some have formalized into neighborhood institutions. Others run through apps. All of them rest on the same foundation the Quechua called Ayni - sacred reciprocity - translated into the language of modern urban life.Mondragon CorporationThe Mondragon Corporation in Spain's Basque region remains the most studied proof that democratic ownership functions at scale. Founded by six worker-owners in 1956, it now comprises 96 cooperatives employing over 70,000 people, with annual revenues exceeding €11 billion. Workers own the company collectively, vote on strategy at general assemblies, and operate under a constitutionally capped pay ratio of 6-to-1 between the highest and lowest earners.Traditional Dream FactoryIn a 25-hectare village in Alentejo, Portugal, Traditional Dream Factory is a living prototype of the self-sustaining regenerative community - blending collective ownership, ecological restoration, intentional community, and decentralized economy in one working place. They have raised over €1.25 million in total capital across 280+ token holders. Their 2026 build phase is completing co-living rooms, artist studios, a farm-to-table restaurant, a mushroom farm, and a biopool wellness space.AtreyuInvestment, as most of us have encountered it, prioritizes short-term financial returns above all else. Atreyu challenges this at the root by approaching investment through living systems principles and deep relational due diligence. They support their investees to ensure that both the enterprises and the ecosystems they steward realize their potential - together. They focus on early-stage businesses and actively encourage steward-ownership models that enshrine self-governance and purpose orientation.Muyu CoinOne of the first social coins in South America, Based in Ecuador - Muyu serves as an alternative exchange system rooted in community trust and an understanding of sacred economy. It protects the sovereignty of communities in their production, distribution, exchange, consumption, and post-consumption - keeping the loop of value inside the community rather than extracting it outward. It uses Cyclos, an enchrypted platform, a base.It first did an attempt to start in 2015, but not many people showed interest. It then came back very strong in 2020, due to the “plandemic”. People felt the need to have alternative ways to transact that was not controlled by limiting governments. Giving communities complete independence. Currently with over 150+ members who are exchanging goods and services in different nodes throughout the country. From food produce, clothing and art -to- car mechanic, dentists and school teachers serving to the community.Grassroots EconomicsFounded in Kenya, Grassroots Economics supports communities in building their own self-sustaining economies - even when national currency is scarce - through a model called Commitment Pooling.Consider Wanjiru, a vegetable seller in Mombasa's Bangla Pesa network. During a slow week when Kenyan shillings are tight, she issues a Community Asset Voucher - a commitment to provide vegetables - and deposits it into a communal pool. Her neighbor, a carpenter named Kamau, redeems it. He offers his own labor in return. The loop closes. Food reaches a family that needed it. A roof gets repaired. No national currency changes hands.This is not a workaround. It is a return to how value was always supposed to move.Since Grassroots Economics was established in 2010, they have supported 26,600 people across 290+ communities, issuing over 2,140 vouchers. Their protocol is inspired by indigenous Rotational Labor Associations similar to Kenya's mwethya and harambee traditions. It is open-source and blockchain-agnostic - meaning any community, anywhere, can deploy it.The Choice in Front of UsThese regenerative endeavors share one answer to the core assumption of the extractive economy: the economy does not need to extract in order to function. Value can circulate and regenerate rather than accumulate. Ecological health, community resilience, and the wellbeing of the next generations are not costs to minimize - they are the actual metrics that demonstrate economic success.The question is no longer whether it is possible. It is happening. The question is whether enough of us choose to participate in building it, and whether we remember our roles as stewards of the Earth that has always sustained us.We get to choose the future we want for ourselves, our children, and the seven generations that come after.Your Role in the Regenerative EconomyReading this is already a kind of remembering. The question that follows is simple: where do you begin?The regenerative economy is not waiting to be invented. It is waiting to be joined. Every one of the models described here started with a small group of people who decided to practice a different relationship with value - before it was proven, before it was popular, before it was funded.Here are real entry points, available now:Start with your immediate circle. Identify three skills or resources you have in excess - time, knowledge, food from a garden, tools sitting unused. Offer them. Ask for what you need in return. This is Ayni. It requires no platform, no signup, no permission.Relocalize your spending. Every dollar (fiat currency) that circulates inside a local economy multiplies its impact without leaving the community. Farmers markets, community-supported agriculture, local cooperatives, regenerative small businesses - these are not lifestyle choices. They are votes for a different system, cast weekly.Find or start a Time Bank in your area. hOurworld.org and TimeBanks.org maintain active directories. If nothing exists near you, starting one requires little more than a spreadsheet and a Telegram/Whatsapp group.Join a community working on this. It can be our Regenerative Leadership Community from www.regenerativeculture.life is one place. There are others - transition towns, ecovillages, commons networks - in most regions of the world. Find your people. The regenerative economy is, at its root, a relationship economy. It does not work alone.Learn the language. Permaculture design, commons governance, cooperative economics, sacred reciprocity - these are not abstract concepts. They are practical skills with deep traditions behind them. The more fluent you become, the more useful you are to the communities building this.The scale of what needs to change can feel paralyzing. It is not meant to. The models described in this article did not begin at scale. Mondragon began with six people. Grassroots Economics began in one neighborhood in Mombasa. The Quechua did not design Ayni for a movement - they designed it for a harvest.Start where you are. With what you have. With whoever is near you. That has always been enough to begin. It's not easy, but it is possible.Written by Gertie Farenas and Yoshi Pantera - 90% by us humans and 10% AI assisted.This Audio is recorded by a true voice - Yoshi PanteraThis article is part of the Regenerative Culture Chronicle - a publication exploring the ideas, practices, and communities building a world that benefits all life.Learn more at RegenerativeCulture.LifeThanks for reading Regenerative Culture Chronicle!

Rohit Jha, Co-founder and CEO of Transcelestial, joins Jeremy Au to explain how his Singapore-based startup is using laser communications to transmit internet at speeds far beyond what Starlink currently offers, and why that matters for Southeast Asia, global telcos, and the future of deep space. Rohit breaks down how Transcelestial went from building ground-to-ground laser links for 5G towers, with clients like Globe Telecom, Telkomsel, T-Mobile, AT&T, Verizon, and NTT Group, to now building an orbital ring of 40 satellites designed to replace undersea cables and host orbital data centres capable of running AI workloads in space. Topics covered include the Transcelestial vs. SpaceX and Starlink distinction, why telcos are a national security asset that will never be sold to a foreign operator, how AI is driving an explosion in internet bandwidth demand, and how a laser link restored connectivity to 50 villages in Taiwan after a typhoon destroyed a fibre-carrying bridge in under two hours. Rohit also shares what it means to be brave, from fighting off knife-wielding robbers in Munich on Christmas Eve to secretly redirecting company capital into a space programme without telling the board.

Executions have soared inside Iran, with new Amnesty data today showing more than 2,000 people were given the death penalty in 2025. Roland Oliphant speaks to Iranian journalist in exile Maryam Mazrooei about the “bloodthirsty” regime's latest tactic to scare citizens into silence amid the war with the US and Israel. She also explains why the mood inside the country is increasingly dark amid a growing economic disaster, with mass layoffs and no internet.Plus, the UK has fitted new laser-guided missiles to its Typhoon jets on patrol in the Gulf. Venetia Rainey talks to acting defence editor Tom Cotterill about how they have been designed to talk on Iranian Shahed drones and why they were developed so fast.

The recent Volt Typhoon and Iranian strikes have highlighted the dangers of malware and hacking, which can have devastating consequences for the country's infrastructure. As the US prepares for potential infrastructure attacks, it's essential to understand the nature of these threats and how they can be mitigated. This video explores the growing risk of cyber attacks and the measures that can be taken to protect America's critical infrastructure from those who seek to do harm through cyber warfare and cyber crime. By examining the current landscape of cyber threats, including supply chain vulnerabilities and the use of malware, we can better prepare for the challenges that lie ahead and work towards a more secure future. cyber warfarecyber crimesupply chainmalwarehackingcyber attackaptexploitddoscyber defensecyber opszero daydigital warcyber warcyber espionagethreat intelnet defenseonline securitynk cryptowater systemsnation state
Ingo Swann described the rings of Jupiter from a room in California before Pioneer 10 confirmed they existed. Pat Price sketched a top-secret Soviet nuclear facility so precisely that intelligence analysts initially suspected a security breach. In another session, he described water tanks at a location where current satellite imagery showed none. Twenty-one years later, a historical photograph surfaced showing those exact tanks at that exact location — taken in 1913. Price's consciousness had accessed the past. Joe McMoneagle sketched the Typhoon-class Soviet submarine four months before a spy satellite confirmed its existence. His Legion of Merit citation credits him with producing information on 150 targets that was unavailable from any other intelligence source. This was Project Stargate. Twenty million dollars. Two decades. CIA, DIA, and US Army. And the declassified files confirm what every mystic and every ancient tradition has been saying for thousands of years — consciousness is not confined to the brain. It is nonlocal. It perceives across any distance and any time. If remote viewing is real, and the government proved it is, then the boundary between your imagination and physical reality is already breached. You are already doing this every night in your sleep. Every time you worry, you are remote viewing a feared future. Every time you visualize with real feeling, you are locking onto a target. The activation teaches you how to do it on purpose. Four steps modeled on the CIA's own methodology. Aimed at your desired future. Manifestation is remote viewing. The government declassified the proof.

Today's EM Morning Brief covers Super Typhoon Sinlaku's devastating impact on Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands, where winds up to 185 mph knocked out power and water and displaced more than a thousand residents. A multi-day severe weather outbreak has produced confirmed tornadoes across six states, including an EF-3 near Union Center, Wisconsin, and an EF-2 in Ottawa, Kansas. Florida's extreme drought—the worst since 2012—has fueled more than 1,600 wildfires and 100,000 acres burned in the first 100 days of 2026, with multiple counties declaring local emergencies. CISA continues its active advisory cadence with new KEV additions and the ongoing Cisco SD-WAN emergency directive. FEMA housing inspectors begin property evaluations in Washington state under the newly approved disaster declaration. The national wildfire picture remains above average at 231 percent of the ten-year norm, with Red Flag Warnings active across the Southern Plains.

Today's EM Morning Brief covers an active multi-day severe weather outbreak across the Southern Plains and into the Upper Midwest, with confirmed tornadoes in Kansas and Minnesota and an enhanced threat continuing through Tuesday. Emergency operations continue in Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands under Super Typhoon Sinlaku, with a Presidential emergency declaration in effect. NIFC is at Preparedness Level 2, with active large fires on the Southern Plains and a growing wildfire near the Colorado–New Mexico border. USGS reports Kīlauea's eruption paused, while three Alaska volcanoes remain at elevated alert levels. CISA adds a new Adobe Acrobat vulnerability to the KEV catalog, and CDC's HAN on medetomidine in illicit fentanyl remains active. EM Morning Brief is your concise daily update on national and state-by-state emergency management news. Produced by Sitch Radio, an EOC Voices podcast.Key Takeaways* Multi-day severe weather outbreak is the top national concern, stretching from the Southern Plains into the Upper Midwest; confirmed tornadoes and damage reported in Kansas (Ottawa, minor injuries in Franklin County) and southern Minnesota late Monday, with tornado watches continuing through Tuesday across TX, OK, AR, MO, and WI.* Excessive rainfall and flooding risk flagged by the National Water Center from the Texas Hill Country through the Great Lakes through mid-week.* Super Typhoon Sinlaku remains the Pacific operational priority — Presidential emergency declaration in effect for Guam (signed April 12), Typhoon Warnings for Rota, Tinian, Saipan, and the Northern Islands, Tropical Storm Warning for Guam.* Wildfire posture is elevated for April — NIFC at National Preparedness Level 2; active large fires include Buffalo Gap (SD, ~5,400 acres), Horny Toad (TX Panhandle), and Glen Ferris (WV).* Early-season fire activity in the Southwest — Colorado fire near the NM border grew to ~450 acres;

iHeartPodcasts today announced it is partnering with actor, filmmaker and podcaster Rider Strong (Boy Meets World, Cabin Fever) to launch his new audio series, "The Red Weather." This innovative 8-episode autofiction podcast, inspired by Strong's initial work on a documentary about communes in and around his hometown of Sebastopol, California, masterfully blends a fictional true-crime mystery with a profoundly personal real-life narrative. The series will premiere with its first two episodes on January 28, with episodes launching twice weekly thereafter."'The Red Weather' started with me grabbing a microphone and asking old friends about kids we knew who grew up in so-called 'cults,'" said Rider Strong. "As the memories piled up, I wanted to find the best way to draw listeners into that unique time and place. I'm excited to team up with iHeart to bring this deeply personal project to audiences everywhere."The fictional investigative podcast will interrogate true-crime conventions, unreliable narration and the ethics of storytelling - all driven by a 1995 cold case. Strong, playing himself, will delve into the disappearance of his best friend's sister, Anna Trainor, from a commune in 1995. The central crime is fictitious, yet the recorded interviews with real family and friends, along with the exploration of Rider's own past, make for a deeply authentic audio experience and personal journey. Featuring documentary-style recordings with actors on location, "The Red Weather" will create a unique blend of reality and scripted drama, exploring themes of '90s nostalgia, the pitfalls of alternative parenting and misogyny."The concept behind 'The Red Weather' is truly unique, blurring the lines between what is real and what is masterful storytelling in a way that draws the listener in, providing them a glimpse into what life was like during Rider's formative years," said Will Pearson, President of iHeartPodcasts. "Part fiction, part true crime and part autobiographical, this podcast will captivate audiences."The cast of "The Red Weather" includes Strong's parents, his son, his brother Shiloh, as well as actor and director Jon Huertas (This is Us), Rachel Marsh (The Morning Show) and Heidi Sulzman (Hell or High Water)). Additionally, Kyle Morton, lead singer and creative visionary behind indie-rock band Typhoon composed all original music for the series."The Red Weather" is distributed by iHeartPodcasts and will be available on the iHeartRadio app and everywhere podcasts are heard.

Professor Lucy Blue takes us to China to discuss the recovery and investigation of the Yangtze River Estuary No. 2 shipwreck, discovered in 2015 by the Shanghai Museum archaeologists with the help of the local fisherman. Dr Xiaolin Ma and Dr Prof. Zhanghua Wang from East China Normal University, Shanghai talk about their roles in understanding the life history of the ship. Buried for over 150 years beneath fine sediment in around 10 metres of water at the mouth of the Yangtze River, this 38-metre vessel is the largest and best-preserved ancient wooden shipwreck discovered in China. The wreck was lifted inside a container (48 meters long, 19 meters wide, and 9 meters tall) with surrounding sediments and is now being carefully excavated in Shanghai's disused shipyard. Scientific analysis has revealed remarkable details of its cargo and is on going. Using methods, including sedimentary environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis that identifies the genetic material of all organisms from sediments sealed inside the pottery jars, researchers were able to reveal insights into the nature and origin of elements of the cargo no longer visible in the archaeological record. Excavation continues in Shanghai, as plans are underway to create a museum to house the Qing Dynasty ship and its finds.The project would like to acknowledge Mr Yang Zhai from Shanghai Cultural Heritage Conservation and Research Centre, who provided chances for studying the sedimentary DNA of a shipwreck; Dr Shaoqing Wen from Fudan University, who provided ultra-clean laboratory and equipment for eDNA analysis and helped with the analysis. They also would like to thank Haixia Wen and Xin Wei from East China Normal University and Zhihang Ma from Fudan University who measured the environmental parameters and performed data processing.

Don't shy away from the junkyard when it's time to find a part. Whether you're a hardcore salvage builder looking for a door skin or it's your first time and you just need a head rest, outfits like Best Foreign Used Parts are ideal - lots of stock, lots of knowledge, and lots of tetanus shots. Hostus Maximus Justin Fort and Ryan The TBD may be a little biased (It's in there!), but there's a lot to learn from this episode: what parts move fastest, the cars that junkyard shoppers like the most (and where), what to do first when you're heading to the junkyard, and a little bit about this business as a whole. There's also Dodge R/Ts (Dakota and Caravan), Toyotas, Panteras, Typhoons, Cyclones, Renaults, an MG and a Volvo 240, cars with guns, 'fridges, violins and money, and so many Subarus. The master of this demonstration of disassembly at Best Parts (Don), also has excellent stories from four decades in the business - crazy finds in the 'yard, what goes on after the gates close, airbag "testing", walking catalytics, hail (No!), junkyard magic, the price of steel, and structural recycling. Soup for you: The Allman Brothers, faces for radio, Colorado Springs and Gold Hill history (schmistory!), R-rated junk car finds, and Johnny Cash's forgotten song about Deloreans. ...And don't trust your lyin' eyes - the Garage Hour is always PG, so the "Explicit" rating that occasionally appears on episodes is just some 'bot that was too drunk to do its job.
AI-Accelerated FortiGate Breaches, Amazon Kiro Prod Disruption, Claude Code Security, Salt Typhoon Warning, and Youth Radicalization Risks Episode of Cybersecurity Today (hosted by David Shipley) covering: a Russian-speaking hacker using AI-written automation tools to breach 600+ Fortinet FortiGate firewalls across 55 countries by exploiting weak passwords and exposed management interfaces without MFA, with advice to lock down edge management access, enforce MFA, and strengthen password policies; an Amazon Kiro AI coding tool incident tied to a misconfigured role that allegedly deleted and recreated a production environment, causing a 13-hour disruption to AWS Cost Explorer services in one of two mainland China regions, prompting warnings about giving AI agents access to production and the need for guardrails and review processes; Anthropic's Claude Code Security launch, an AI-driven code vulnerability analysis feature that maps code interactions and data flows, provides severity and confidence scoring, keeps humans in the loop, and sparked stock drops for CrowdStrike and Cloudflare while noting limits for legacy code; an FBI warning that China-linked Salt Typhoon remains a serious threat in 80+ countries by exploiting basic weaknesses like unpatched systems, old code, reused passwords, and phishing, alongside concern over the FCC loosening US telecom cybersecurity requirements and calls for stronger critical infrastructure regulation and secure-by-default equipment; and a Canada-focused segment on youth online radicalization including a second RCMP terrorism peace bond in New Brunswick linked to the 764 extremist network (designated a terrorist organization in December 2025), plus reporting that the Tumbr Ridge, BC school shooting suspect had a ChatGPT account suspended in June 2025 and that OpenAI employees allegedly sought to notify authorities but were rebuffed, drawing condemnation from BC Premier David Eby and federal AI minister Evan Solomon and renewed calls for stronger cooperation, accountability, and intervention frameworks.

On today's episode, we talk about the beautiful islands of Samoa, which were the background to a clash between the relatively nascent empires of the United States and Germany in the 1880s. As the crisis came to a head, however, nature put a dramatic end to human ambition. But what if it had gone differently?
CHINA'S GREAT HEIST OF AMERICAN SECRETS Colleagues David Shedd and Bill Roggio. David Sheddoutlines China's extensive cyber espionage campaigns, including "Salt Typhoon," which successfully hacked US Congressional committees. These operations aim to steal sensitive communications and embed sabotage tools within USinfrastructure, highlighting a critical failure in American defensive preparedness. NUMBER 31956
TYPHOONS, KAMIKAZES, AND UNFORGIVING WARFARE Colleague Craig Symonds. Halsey's aggression led to disaster when he twice steered the fleet into typhoons, causing significant loss of life and ships. Despite inquiries recommending Halsey's removal, Nimitz retained him to maintain public morale. The war grew grimmer with the invasion of Iwo Jima, where Marines felt unsupported by naval gunfire, and the emergence of Kamikaze suicide attacks off Okinawa. Nimitz, now based in Guam, observed the terrifying effectiveness of the Kamikazes, which he noted was the only wartime development the Naval War College had failed to anticipate.
