Podcasts about Vancouver

This week, David Maxwell heads to County Antrim where he meets a Canadian couple gardening in the shadow of Slemish. Judith and Hugh Jackson moved to the area from Vancouver after they both retired. They built a house in a rural area and they quickly realised that gardening at 300 metres above sea level meant they needed plants that can look after themselves. Judith reveals her friendly ‘thugs' including the tough perennial Persicaria which cuts down on any weeding. In County Clare, the programme visits the Irish Seed Savers Association who look after Ireland's heritage apple collection and conserve heritage seed varieties for the future. Ruth Bramley from Farmyard Nurseries shows David some of her favourite indoor plants including Mimosa, also known as the sensitive plant, which moves when it's touched. In studio, Anna Hudson joins David with seasonal inspiration and the answers to questions including how to ripen pairs and what to do with a Kumquat! Email the programme at gardenerscorner@bbc.co.uk

Since May 8, 1792, European colonists have called the large volcano just off the coast of Puget Sound "Mount Rainier." It was given that name by a British explorer, Captain George Vancouver – a gift to his friend, Rear Admiral Peter Rainier. But prior to Vancouver’s arrival in what eventually became Washington state, the Indigenous peoples in and around the Salish Sea called it by many names. A linguistic paper from the Puyallup Tribe of Indians traced those many names for the mountain – where they came from, and what they mean. This conversation originally aired on May 5, 2025. Guests: Zalmai ʔəswəli Zahir, linguist and Lushootseed language teacher Related Links: Puyallup Tribal Language - Analysis of the Many Names of the Mountain Puyallup Tribal language consultant publishes first comprehensive analysis of the many Native names for Mount Rainier - ʔuhuyəxʷ ti dᶻixʷ pipa ʔə tiiɫ qa sdadaʔ ʔə tiiɫ skʷatač, ʔux̌alad ti ʔəswəli | Puyallup Tribe Puyallup Tribal Language - Culture Thank you to the supporters of KUOW, you help make this show possible!

Interview with Rory Quinn, President & CEO of Yukon MetalsOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/yukon-metals-cseymc-launching-major-drill-program-in-2025-7124Recording date: 10th September 2025Yukon Metals Corporation (CSE:YMC) represents a compelling early-stage copper and gold exploration opportunity positioned to capitalize on favorable market conditions and strong preliminary drilling results across three strategic properties in Canada's Yukon Territory.The company's flagship Birch project has delivered encouraging validation of its geological model, with scarn mineralization encountered in every drill hole across a substantial 750-meter strike length. The consistency of this mineralization is particularly significant for early-stage exploration, indicating a robust and extensive system with substantial discovery potential. Recent drilling has intersected up to 46 meters of continuous scarn mineralization between 250-300 meters depth, suggesting significant vertical continuity. Preliminary visual assessment by Dr. Quinton Hennigh, a highly respected geologist, indicates potential copper grades of 1.5-2% with accompanying gold content, though final assay results are pending.Complementing the copper focus at Birch, the Star River property presents exceptional high-grade silver and gold potential. Surface sampling has yielded remarkable results including up to 11,000 g/t silver and 101 g/t gold, with visible galena mineralization containing 1,800 g/t silver and 20% lead. Current drilling targets shallow mineralization at approximately 150 meters depth, supported by an 800-meter gravity anomaly that correlates with known high-grade surface showings.A critical value driver for Yukon Metals lies in its systematic approach to operational scaling through permit advancement. The company currently operates under Class 1 permits that limit operations to 10 people and restrict drilling scope. However, management is actively pursuing Class 3 permits that would dramatically expand capabilities to 50 people on site with virtually unlimited drilling capacity for a 10-year period. CEO Rory Quinn emphasized this represents a significant value inflection point, stating the permits will create a huge amount of value and enable much larger exploration programs.The company maintains a strong financial foundation with $11 million raised in April, supporting approximately 9,000 meters of drilling across the three properties. Management operates a lean structure with only a three-person Vancouver office, ensuring capital allocation is directed primarily toward exploration activities. This disciplined approach maximizes shareholder value while maintaining operational flexibility.Market conditions appear increasingly favorable for copper exploration, driven by electrification trends and supply constraints. Quinn noted strong institutional interest and the presence of generalist funds and US capital, describing current conditions as "the best vibe I've felt here in a long time" in what "really does feel like a bull market." The company's stock price has reflected this positive sentiment, advancing from $0.60 to the $0.80-$0.90 range following positive drilling results.The management team brings valuable experience and strategic relationships within the mining finance community. Key personnel include Keith Neumeyer, who helped structure the company and brings committed investor networks, and Patrick Burke, former head of capital markets at Canaccord Genuity. Quinn's background with Wheaton Precious Metals provides institutional market familiarity that should prove valuable as projects advance.With pending assay results, permit advancement progress, and favorable market conditions for strategic commodities, Yukon Metals appears well-positioned to deliver value through systematic project advancement and discovery potential across its diversified property portfolio.View Yukon Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/yukon-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

For the minor occasion of our 575th episode we're taking a somewhat personal and sociological detour and talking about the city we live in and from whence grew so much of the music we discuss on the podcast: Vancouver. What conditions allowed for "Vancouver school" industrial music to emerge in the first place, what shaped its sound and aesthetic, and how we and the rest of the city have weathered social and economic changes in the area ever since are all up for discussion.

Alright girl, today I've got Emma Nedov on the pod. If you don't know her — she's a two-time Olympian, an Australian gymnastics champion, and a woman who has lived the full arc of chasing a dream, breaking down, walking away, and then coming back stronger. Emma's story is wild. She trained for 20 years, missed out on the Games more than once, retired, and then — three years later — made the comeback of a lifetime to qualify for the Paris 2024 Olympics. What I love about Emma is her honesty about the falls, the pressure, the heartbreak, and the grit it takes to rise again. She's proof that falling isn't failure — it's part of the process. In our conversation, she shares the 10 lessons gymnastics gave her that now fuel her life outside the sport — lessons on resilience, patience, fear, identity, and why the goal is just a guide. This one is raw, inspiring, and full of wisdom for any woman who's chasing something bigger than herself. Why Listen Because you're not afraid of falling—you're afraid of not getting back up the right way. Press play for a blueprint in resilience that actually translates outside the gym. What We Cover Learn how to fall. It's not about avoiding failure — it's about falling with dignity and rising with choice, not obligation. Patience is power. The results you want take years, not weeks. Learn to love the long game. Perform under pressure. Nerves don't disappear; you just learn how to move with them. Do the session you don't feel like. That's usually the one that changes you. Visualization is a weapon. See it, feel it, practice it — and your body will follow. Sleep is non-negotiable. It's the quiet performance tool nobody respects enough. Fuel like an athlete. Food isn't punishment or reward — it's a tool for power, strength, and longevity. Don't chase perfection. You'll never control the judges, the scores, or the outcome — only your own performance. Build your board of directors. You need people around you who believe in you when you don't. The goal is the guide, not the prize. Who you become in the process is the real win. Key Takeaways Resilience isn't heroic; it's practiced. Tiny fails count. Your feelings don't run the show—your preparation does. The most rewarding sessions are the ones you wanted to skip. Control the controllables: your focus, your execution, your recovery. The goal is a north star, not a verdict. The practice is the point. Power Lines to Share “Learn to fall well—and rise because you choose to, not because you're told to.” — Emma “Act despite how you feel. That's where power lives.” — Emma “Your performance is none of your feelings' business.” — Emma “The practice is the point. The process is the point.” — Amy “Build your table. Fill the seats. Nobody wins alone.” — Emma & Amy Connect with Emma The gram: https://www.instagram.com/ejnedov/ Website: https://www.emmanedov.com/ Next Steps

They revisit Andrés Giménez's contract, an unforgotten horror, and whether moving him to shortstop in Bo Bichette's absence makes sense. After the break, Sportsnet's Jason Bukala (23:00) joins to discuss Kirill Kaprizov's contract negotiations, what could become of the Minnesota Wild without him, and how the size of his next deal could reset the market. He also weighs in on whether a Sidney Crosby sweepstakes might actually materialize, and closes by discussing the scenarios surrounding Quinn Hughes in Vancouver.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

In this week's episode, we chat with Wesley about the enforcement of veils and lines, the virtues of stabbing birds, and the use of TTRPGs in therapy. (Wesley's an actual literal therapist!) This ended up being a thoughtful conversation about people's emotional needs when they're playing TTRPGs, even outside the therapy context.We make a few references to our episode with Kyros way back in Season 1. (Spoilers for Curse of Strahd in both this episode with Wesley and that episode with Kyros, incidentally.)

(0:08:56–0:13:29) Dr. Jeff KD Meyers shared his personal journey with chronic pain and how discovering and consistently practicing Feldenkrais exercises helped him reduce his pain dramatically, illustrating the importance of individualized healing paths. (0:28:35–0:32:13)  Manon highlighted the importance of discernment and tuning into one's own body and intuition when choosing therapies, stressing that healing is a personal journey and that change is always possible. (0:35:33)   ABOUT DR JEFF KD Meyers: Jeff “KD” Meyers, M.D., L.Ac. is a physician, acupuncturist, guide, and storyteller whose work bridges Western medicine, holistic healing, and expanded states of consciousness. A graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and the University of Colorado School of Medicine, he completed residency training in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at Penn and has practiced integrative medicine for over 30 years. Dr. Meyers specializes in peak performance, neuro-plasticity, and self-actualization and fulfillment, leading seminars and retreats focused on innovative, integrative approaches. He teaches internationally on topics including rehabilitation, resilience, yoga and Ayurveda, acupuncture, somatic practices, psychedelics, archetypes, and the transformative power of music. His journey as a healer has been influenced deeply by the wisdom of spiritual traditions including the Abrahamic lineage--Sufism, Judaism, and Christianity, as well as Buddhism, yogic and syncretic traditions. A profound awakening in 2003 opened him to non-dual awareness and years of exploration with indigenous and church-based plant medicine traditions in South America. These experiences catalyzed archetypal and prophetic insights and connection to lineages including the Divine Mother and the Holy Grail. Dr. Meyers holds certificates in Psychedelic Therapies and Research from CIIS, Family Constellations, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, and biodynamic osteopathy. He is a certified firewalking instructor, and has co-directed Dharma Mittra's Life of a Yogi Teacher Training and teaches in Jeff Carreira's Mystery School. Blending science, spirituality, and art, Dr. Meyers is excited to guide individuals and groups toward healing, self-realization, and expanded human potential.  His new book with collage artist Jody Smith--Secrets from the Heart of Yoga:  New Yoga Sutras--will be out this fall. Core purpose/passion: My core purpose is to receive and share the Joy that is at the Heart of the Creation and healing, and is expressed through all of the Creation-- especially accessible through music and art, and to use this as a modality for solace and healing.

Brad Lander has been a fixture in New York's progressive political scene for nearly two decades now, and has earned a reputation as a strong advocate for bike lanes, bike share, driver accountability, and congestion pricing. This year, though, he's become known in a new way. As a candidate in a crowded Democratic mayoral primary, Brad cross-endorsed Zohran Mamdani, who eventually won the race with a margin that shocked the Democratic establishment. And in June, mere days before the primary ended, Brad was escorting a man named out of an immigration hearing when he was arrested by federal agents. Brad joins us to explain how his defense of the Prospect Park West bike lane as a then-new member of the New York City Council became a formative experience in his political career and why the courage and coalition building it takes to stand up for safe streets are also the same tools it takes to fight fascism.

My wife and I just came back from a 7 day cruise from Seward Alaska to Vancouver in Canada. One of the stops was a port of call created specifically for the cruising industry called Icy Strait Point. This port is built into the side of an island off the coast of Alaska. Most people on the ship would have enjoyed the fresh cooked salmon, and marvelled at the numerous souvenir shops sprinkled throughout this manufactured village. I on the other hand looked at it through the lens of a real estate investment. Cruise lines are often looking for ports that charge low landing fees. These fees amount to huge sums over time. That's why each major cruise line has built their own beach club at a private island in the Bahamas. They get a day at the beach with no port fees or landing fees. The investment structure for Icy Strait Point is a unique partnership where the Huna Totem Corporation, an Alaska Native village corporation, maintains full ownership and operational control, while major cruise lines act as key investors. This model allows the native corporation to retain sovereignty while securing the capital needed for port development.The investment came primarily from NCL and Royal Caribbean which gives these cruise lines preferential access to the port. Icy Strait Point is fully owned and operated by the Huna Totem Corporation, which represents more than 1,550 Alaska Native shareholders. All profits from the port are reinvested back into the community of Hoonah. When you travel, don't just eat the fish and buy a t-shirt, look behind the curtain at the investment structure. ------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)

Earle led the yoga philosophy department and taught meditation and yoga, while also studying Tibetan, Sanskrit, business, and a 7-year advanced program in Tibetan Buddhism. #energymedicine #spiritual #meditate About my Guest Earle BirneyEarle grew up an avid sports fan in Vancouver, Canada. With just 4 months left of study before obtaining a degree, he began to realize that a life of following “societal norms” — starting a career, buying a house, getting married, having kids — did not make sense or appeal to him. It felt confining rather than freeing. So instead, he took out a student loan, bought an around-the-world ticket, and went on his personal search for freedom. Fueled by liquid inspiration, Earle ironically ended up in Paremoremo, a maximum security prison in Auckland New Zealand where he remained as a guest for the next 22 months. This is where Earle met the practices of yoga, meditation, and Buddhist philosophy. Earle began studying the Asian Classics Institute program and shortly after returning to Canada, went to help him start the Diamond Mountain University and Retreat Center in the Chiricahua Mountains of Arizona. Earle led the yoga philosophy department and taught meditation and yoga, while also studying Tibetan, Sanskrit, business, and a 7-year advanced program in Tibetan Buddhism. This period of study concluded with a 3 year 3 month 3 day silent meditation retreat.Taking his 27 years of experience, Earle thrives on making the often complicated teachings practical and relatable. Earle uses his expertise in retreat and his capacity to guide people along the stages of meditation, to help them in their spiritual journey.Earle is the head of curriculum development and lead teacher at the Yoga Studies Institute (YSI). YSI reaches over 10,000 students annually, leading students in yoga programs and retreats, meditation teacher trainings, and philosophy workshops. Earle also teaches and leads meditation programs at the Three Jewels Outreach Center in NYC for many students, including beginning meditators, people training to become meditation teachers, and advanced practitioners looking to deepen their practice in retreat.What we Discussed: 00:10 Who is Earle Birney 01:00 His Journey to understand life05:35 4 months from finishing his Degree and quit07:40 The plan was to work and kep travelling08:18 How he got into selling Acid09:30 Getting a warning he should have listened to10:28 The Process of Getting Arrested11:40 His Court Experience14:20 His experience in Prison15:50 How did his Parents react to the situation17:00 After 5 month how was the prison experience18:55 The jobs in the Prison20:30 What was his Mindset when he know he was getting out22:45 Was there any treatment in Prison to help with drug use25:00 The Journey after Prison28:00 7 Years in a Buddist centre29:00 3 Years 3 Months & 3 Day silent retreat29:50 How did they cover costs30:45 Spending 3 years to go inwards for yourself31:45 The Structure of the Retreat33:19 How was his mind in the 1st few days35:25 After the Retreat what was the next part of his journey38:00 Fast for Hunger40:20 Give Dignity to the Homeless41:00 What Meditation do they Teach and his Practice43:30 When People say they can not Meditate46:00 Getting Tired in Meditation49:14 Walking on the beach worked for me Meditating50:48 The Free Resources on his WebsiteHow to Contact Earle Birneywww.yogastudiesinstitute.orghttps://www.instagram.com/samayogastudio/All about Roy / Brain Gym & Virtual Assistants at ⁠https://roycoughlan.com/⁠

FASCISM...FRANCE. Two words/ideas that scholars have spent much time and energy debating in relationship to one another. Chris Millington's A History of Fascism in France: From the First World War to the National Front (Bloomsbury, 2019) is a work of synthesis that also draws on the author's own research for key examples and evidence to support its narrative and claims. Moving chronologically, the book's chapters take the reader from the impact of the First World War right up to the contemporary period in French politics, culture, and society. A narrative and analysis focused on the French context, the book situates France within a broader European frame. Engaging the complex historiographic battles surrounding French fascism in ways that will be helpful to non-specialists, and especially to student readers, the book condenses decades of previous scholarship while delving into concrete cases and moments that help to illustrate the stakes of this historical and political field. Examining movements like the Croix-de-Feu, Faisceau, Jeunesses Patriotes, Partie Social Français, and the Cagoulards within the broader interwar landscape of right-wing thought and politics, the book goes on to consider the Vichy period and the emergence of the National Front after the Second World War. *Special note: Chris and I ran out of time before I could ask him about what he's been working on since the publication of A History of Fascism in France. Readers may also be interested in his most recent book, France in the Second World War: Collaboration, Resistance, Holocaust, Empire (Bloomsbury, 2020). Roxanne Panchasi is an Associate Professor of History at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver, Canada who specializes in twentieth and twenty-first century France and its empire. If you have a recent title to suggest for the podcast, please send her an email (panchasi@sfu.ca).
