Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of addiction, opioid use (including fentanyl), complex trauma, intergenerational trauma, medical neglect, and the death of a child.Dr. T and Truth Fairy welcome guest Liz Rezanson, a psychotherapist and social worker who works with the caregivers of children with disabilities, largely in her community of Vernon, BC. Liz believes in the healing power of connection and integrates mind-body attunement therapy, EMDR, EFT, hypnosis, and psychedelic-assisted therapy into her practice using a trauma-informed approach. Liz shares her deeply moving personal and professional journey through raising a daughter with catastrophic epilepsy and her oldest daughter Amy's eventual struggle with opioid addiction, including fentanyl use, and repeated treatment attempts that led to a tragic end.   Liz's story highlights the need for a more compassionate and effective approach to addiction recovery, one that acknowledges the role of attachment, emotional regulation, and support. She, Truth, and Dr. T discuss how psychedelic-assisted therapy, specifically with medicines like ibogaine and MDMA, can offer a powerful opportunity ot desensitize past trauma and support emotional integration. Liz emphasizes that healing doesn't happen through medicine alone, but through the presence of a trained and emotionally regulated facilitator and through a focus on coregulation and relational attunement. Dr. T and Truth Fairy agree with Liz in stating that her daughter Amy's journey illustrates the high stakes and systemic failures in addiction treatment, particularly when treatment centres are ill-equipped to meet clients with compassion and flexibility. Liz emphasizes that healing developmental trauma requires practitioners to develop their own capacity for emotional presence through somatic awareness and self-regulation. Her story is a powerful call to reshape psychedelic integration therapy and addiction treatment by centring safety, right-brain healing, and the profound importance of human connection.“Just that need to be so in tune or attuned to our clients, and especially in the psychedelic field. Yeah. You're doing sometimes long sits, and you have to be able to stay with it and be able to support, and I always say I'm not… I hate the term healer. I think I'm not a healer. I'm literally the guide in this process, whether it be we use something like eMDR or somatic or IFS, whatever, psychedelic, whatever we're using. I'm just the guide in the process. I'm just the person who shows you how to reconnect with yourself, right?” - Liz Rezanson About Liz Rezanson, Psychotherapist, BCYC, MACP, CCC, RSW:Liz has called Vernon home for the past 30 years, and for over two decades, she has had the privilege of working with individuals and families in that community. Her background includes more than 20 years supporting families, and 11 years working closely with children with diverse abilities and their caregivers.At the heart of her work is a belief in the healing power of connection—both with ourselves and with those closest to us. Liz works alongside my clients with compassion, curiosity, and respect, helping them move toward greater authenticity, emotional safety, and meaningful change. True connection takes courage, vulnerability, and the right kind of support. She believes it's her role to help create the space where that becomes possible.Liz offers individual, couples, and group therapy in a safe and confidential setting. She draws on a range of approaches, with specialized training in: Mind-Body Attunement Therapy®, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) for Couples, Psychedelic Psychotherapy (studied over the past five years), Clinical HypnosisShe takes an attachment-based, trauma-informed approach to therapy and works with clients navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, PTSD, grief, and chronic pain. In addition to psychotherapy, Liz offers parent coaching, health and wellness counselling, support for chronic pain management, and guided processing of trauma, loss, and life transitions.Contact Liz Rezanson:LinkedIn: liz-rezanson-1b26ab67Website: MindBodyCounselling.org__Resources discussed in this episode:Allan Schore“Affect Regulation and the Origin of the Self” by Allan N.

In a particularly somber and intricate episode of Tall Boy Radio, host Beans delves deep into a case that continues to haunt those who knew the man at its centre and raises serious questions about official narratives. He is joined by a returning guest whose expertise in unconventional investigations is invaluable: Retired Lieutenant Commander Vernon Geberth. Together, they meticulously unpack the chilling death of Captain Gordon Hess, a case officially ruled a suicide by the military, yet one that external investigations and compelling evidence strongly suggest was, in fact, a homicide.The episode opens with Vernon setting the stage, introducing Captain Hess as a dedicated and promising officer whose life was tragically cut short. He outlines the initial military report, which concluded that Hess took his own life, and the profound disbelief and distress this ruling caused among his family and friends. It's here that Lt. Cmdr. Geberth, bringing his extensive experience in analyzing suspicious deaths and identifying inconsistencies in official findings.Beans and Geberth systematically dissect the official suicide ruling, questioning the methodologies and assumptions that led to this conclusion. They meticulously go through the crime scene details, or what there is of them, examining the circumstances of Hess's death and highlighting anomalies that were seemingly overlooked or downplayed by military investigators. This includes the positioning of the body, the nature of the injuries, and the presence (or absence) of crucial forensic evidence. Geberth, with his keen eye for detail, points out discrepancies in witness statements and the timeline of events that cast serious doubt on the suicide theory.The conversation then shifts to the independent investigations launched by Hess's family and external experts. Beans guides the discussion through the significant findings unearthed by these non-military inquiries, which painted a vastly different picture. They discuss the testimony of individuals who knew Captain Hess, revealing that he was not exhibiting signs of suicidal ideation and, in fact, had future plans that contradicted such a state of mind. Geberth offers his professional assessment of the evidence, explaining why, from an investigative standpoint, the characteristics of Hess's death are far more consistent with homicide than suicide.Beans and Geberth also touch upon the broader implications of such a disputed ruling, discussing the challenges families face when trying to challenge official military findings and the difficulties in getting a case re-examined. They ponder the reasons why the military might have been so quick to rule Captain Hess's death a suicide, raising questions about potential cover-ups or institutional inertia. Listeners will be left to consider the weight of the evidence presented, the unwavering belief of Captain Hess's loved ones, and the unsettling questions that continue to surround his untimely death. This episode of Tall Boy Radio serves as a powerful reminder that sometimes, the official story is far from the whole truth, and that justice for the fallen can be a long and arduous fight.tallboyradio.com

Bill Risser eloquently narrates John's journey, capturing both the joy and sorrow woven into his experiences as he travels to see family and friends, culminating in the poignant moment of attending his own wake. As John's health has notably declined, the podcast transitions to a discussion on the gravity of hospice care, which emphasizes comfort over curative treatment, highlighting the sensitive nature of this phase in John's life. Risser's portrayal of John's situation strikes a balance between the somber realities of illness and the uplifting moments shared among friends, illustrating the duality of life's experiences.The dialogue centers around the profound impact of John's oncologist's declaration of 'firing' himself from treatment, a moment that encapsulates the transition from aggressive medical intervention to a focus on palliative care.

Risser shares candid conversations with John about the symptoms he faces—fatigue, appetite loss, and pain—yet he emphasizes John's remarkable resilience and his determination to maintain a sense of normalcy, including enjoying meals and engaging in social activities. The narrative underscores the importance of personal agency in the face of illness, showcasing how John continues to assert his will to live fully, even as he confronts the inevitability of his condition.A significant highlight of the episode is the 'golf portion' of the Die Happy Tour, where Bill, Paul, and Vernon join John on the golf course, a longstanding venue of friendship and joy. Risser articulates the promise he made to John to ensure they would always share these moments together, regardless of the circumstances. The recounting of their golfing outings not only illustrates the therapeutic benefits of friendship but also serves as a reminder of the importance of shared experiences in fostering joy during challenging times. Through laughter and camaraderie on the course, Risser captures the essence of life's fleeting moments, making this episode a heartfelt tribute to friendship, resilience, and the enduring human spirit amidst the shadows of terminal illness.Takeaways: In this poignant episode, we discuss John Bjorlie's transition to hospice care as he embarks on the next phase of his Die Happy Tour.

Connecticut State Police are sounding the alarm and looking for victims of what they are calling a scam connected to a funeral director who stole money that people put down for funerals and grave plots. The family of that funeral director owns funeral homes in Coventry, Tolland, Vernon, and East Windsor but again, it's unclear how many people anywhere could be targeted by this type of scam. Commissioner Bryan Cafferelli with the Department of Consumer Protection explained how this scam works and how to avoid being duped. Image Credit: Getty Images

The company also developed SnowCloud resort management software and has rolled out its Terrain Based Learning system at more than 80 ski areas worldwide. They do some other things that I don't really understand (there's a reason that I write about skiing and not particle physics), that you can read about on their website.About Mountain CreekLocated in: Vernon Township, New JerseyClosest neighboring public ski areas: Mount Peter (:24); Big Snow American Dream (:50); Campgaw (:51) Pass affiliations: Snow Triple Play, up to two anytime daysBase elevation: 440 feetSummit elevation: 1,480 feetVertical drop: 1,040 feetSkiable Acres: 167Average annual snowfall: 65 inchesTrail count: 46Lift count: 9 (1 Cabriolet, 2 high-speed quads, 2 fixed-grip quads, 1 triple, 1 double, 2 carpets – view Lift Blog's inventory of Mountain Creek's lift fleet)About Big Snow American DreamLocated in: East Rutherford, New JerseyClosest neighboring public ski areas: Campgaw (:35); Mountain Creek (:50); Mount Peter (:50)Pass affiliations: Snow Triple Play, up to two anytime daysVertical drop: 160 feet Skiable Acres: 4Trail count: 4 (2 green, 1 blue, 1 black)Lift count: 4 (1 quad, 1 poma, 2 carpets - view Lift Blog's of inventory of Big Snow American Dream's lift fleet)Why I interviewed himI read this earlier today:The internet is full of smart people writing beautiful prose about how bad everything is, how it all sucks, how it's embarrassing to like anything, how anything that appears good is, in fact, secretly bad. I find this confusing and tragic, like watching Olympic high-jumpers catapult themselves into a pit of tarantulas.That blurb was one of 28 “slightly rude notes on writing” offered in Adam Mastroianni's Experimental History newsletter. And I thought, “Man this dude must follow #SkiTwitter.” Or Instabook. Of Flexpost. Or whatever. Because online ski content, both short- and long-form, is, while occasionally joyous and evocative, disproportionately geared toward the skiing-is-fucked-and-this-is-why worldview. The passes suck. The traffic sucks. The skiers suck. The prices suck. The parking sucks. The Duopoly sucks. Everyone's a Jerry, chewing up my pow line with their GoPro selfie sticks hoisted high and their Ikon Passes dangling from their zippers. Skiing is corporate and soulless and tourist obsessed and doomed anyway because of climate change. Don't tell me you're having a good time doing this very fun thing. People like you are the reason skiing's soul now shops at Wal-Mart. Go back to Texas and drink a big jug of oil, you Jerry!It's all so… f*****g dumb. U.S. skiing just wrapped its second-best season of attendance. The big passes, while imperfect, are mostly a force for good, supercharging on-hill infrastructure investment, spreading skiers across geographies, stabilizing a once-storm-dependent industry, and lowering the per-day price of skiing for the most avid among us to 1940s levels. Snowmaking has proven an effective bulwark against shifting weather patterns. Lift-served skiing is not a dying pastime, financially or spiritually or ecologically. Yes, modern skiing has problems: expensive food (pack a lunch); mountain-town housing shortages (stop NIMBY-ing everything); traffic (yay car culture); peak-day crowds (don't go then); exploding insurance, labor, utilities, and infrastructure costs (I have no answers). But in most respects, this is a healthy, thriving, constantly evolving industry, and a more competitive one than the Duopoly Bros would admit.Snow Partners proves this. Because what the hell is Snow Partners? It's some company sewn together by a dude who used to park cars at Mountain Creek. Ten years ago this wasn't a thing, and now it's this wacky little conglomerate that owns a bespoke resort tech platform and North America's only snowdome and the impossible, ridiculous Mountain Creek. And they're going to build a bunch more snowdomes that stamp new skiers out by the millions and maybe – I don't know but maybe – become the most important company in the history of lift-served skiing in the process.Could such an outfit possibly have materialized were the industry so corrupted as the Brobot Pundit Bros declare it? Vail is big. Alterra is big. But the two companies combined control just 53 of America's 501 active ski areas. Big ski areas, yes. Big shadows. But neither created: Indy Pass, Power Pass, Woodward Parks, Terrain Based Learning, Mountain Collective, RFID, free skiing for kids, California Mountain Resort Company, or $99 season passes. Neither saved Holiday Mountain or Hatley Pointe or Norway Mountain or Timberline West Virigina from the scrapheap, or transformed a failing Black Mountain into a co-op. Neither has proven they can successfully run a ski area in Indiana (sorry Vail #SickBurn #SellPaoliPeaks #Please).Skiing, at this moment, is a glorious mix of ideas and energy. I realize it makes me uncool to think so, but I signed off on those aspirations the moment I drove the minivan off the Chrysler lot (topped it off with a roofbox, too, Pimp). Anyhow, the entire point of this newsletter is to track down the people propelling change in a sport that most likely predates the written word and ask them why they're doing these novel things to make an already cool and awesome thing even more cool and awesome. And no one, right now, is doing more cool and awesome things in skiing than Snow Partners.**That's not exactly true. Mountain Capital Partners, Alterra, Ikon Pass, Deer Valley, Entabeni Systems, Jon Schaefer, the Perfect Clan, Boyne Resorts, Big Sky, Mt. Bohemia, Powdr, Vail Resorts, Midwest Family Ski Resorts, and a whole bunch more entities/individuals/coalitions are also contributing massively to skiing's rapid-fire rewiring in the maw of the robot takeover digital industrial revolution. But, hey, when you're in the midst of transforming an entire snow-based industry from a headquarters in freaking New Jersey, you get a hyperbolic bump in the file card description.What we talked aboutThe Snow Triple Play; potential partners; “there's this massive piece of the market that's like ‘I don't even understand what you're talking about'” with big day ticket prices and low-priced season passes; why Mountain Creek sells its Triple Play all season long and why the Snow Triple Play won't work that way (at least at first); M.A.X. Pass and why Mountain Creek declined to join successor passes; an argument for Vail, Alterra and other large ski companies to participate on the Snow Triple Play; comparing skiing to hotels, airlines, and Disney World; “the next five years are going to be the most interesting and disruptive time in the ski industry because of technology”; “we don't compete with anybody”; Liftopia's potential, errors, failure, and legacy; skiing on Groupon; considering Breckenridge as an independent ski area; what a “premium” ski area on the Snow Triple Play would be; why megapasses are “selling people a product that will never be used the way it's sold to them”; why people in NYC feel like going to Mountain Creek, an hour over the George Washington Bridge, is “going to Alaska”; why Snow Triple Play will “never” add a fourth day; sticker shock for Big Snow newbs who emerge from the Dome wanting more; SnowCloud and the tech and the guest journey from parking lot to lifts; why Mountain Creek stopped mailing season passes; Bluetooth Low Energy “is certainly the future of passes”; “100 percent we're getting more Big Snows” – but let's justify the $175 million investment first; Big Snow has a “terrible” design; “I don't see why every city shouldn't have a Big Snow” and which markets Snow Partners is talking to; why Mountain Creek didn't get the mega-lift Hession teased on this pod three years ago and when we could see one; “I really believe that the Vernon base of Mountain Creek needs an updated chair”; the impact of automated snowmaking at Mountain Creek; and a huge residential project incoming at Mountain Creek.What I got wrong* I said that Hession wasn't involved in Mountain Creek in the M.A.X. Pass era, but he was an Intrawest employee at the time, and was Mountain Creek's GM until 2012.* I hedged on whether Boyne's Explorer multi-day pass started at two or three days. Skiers can purchase the pass in three- to six-day increments.Why now was a good time for this interviewOkay, so I'll admit that when Snow Partners summarized the Snow Triple Play for me, I wasn't like “Holy crap, three days (total) at up to three different ski areas on a single ski pass? Do you think they have room for another head on Mount Rushmore?” This multi-day pass is a straightforward product that builds off a smart idea (the Mountain Creek Triple Play), that has been a smash hit at the Jersey Snow Jungle since at least 2008. But Snow Triple Play doesn't rank alongside Epic, Ikon, Indy, or Mountain Collective as a seasonlong basher. This is another frequency product in a market already flush with them.So why did I dedicate an entire podcast and two articles (so far) to dissecting this product, which Hession makes pretty clear has no ambitions to grow into some Indy/Ikon/Epic competitor? Because it is the first product to tie Big Snow to the wider ski world. And Big Snow only works if it is step one and there is an obvious step two. Right now, that step two is hard, even in a region ripe with ski areas. The logistics are confounding, the one-off cost hard to justify. Lift tickets, gear rentals, getting your ass to the bump and back, food, maybe a lesson. The Snow Triple Play doesn't solve all of these problems, but it does narrow an impossible choice down to a manageable one by presenting skiers with a go-here-next menu. If Snow Partners can build a compelling (or at least logical) Northeast network and then scale it across the country as the company opens more Big Snows in more cities, then this simple pass could evolve into an effective toolkit for building new skiers.OK, so why not just join Indy or Mountain Collective, or forge some sort of newb-to-novice agreement with Epic or Ikon? That would give Snow Partners the stepladder, without the administrative hassle of owning a ski pass. But that brings us to another roadblock in Ski Revolution 2025: no one wants to share partners. So Hession is trying to flip the narrative. Rather than locking Big Snow into one confederacy or the other, he wants the warring armies to lash their fleets along Snow Partners Pier. Big Snow is just the bullet factory, or the gas station, or the cornfield – the thing that all the armies need but can't supply themselves. You want new skiers? We got ‘em. They're ready. They just need a map to your doorstep. And we're happy to draw you one.Podcast NotesOn the Snow Triple PlayThe basics: three total days, max of two used at any one partner ski area, no blackouts at Big Snow or Mountain Creek, possible blackouts at partner resorts, which are TBD.The pass, which won't be on sale until Labor Day, is fully summarized here:And I speculate on potential partners here:On the M.A.X. PassFor its short, barely noted existence, the M.A.X. Pass was kind of an amazing hack, granting skiers five days each at an impressive blend of regional and destination ski areas:Much of this roster migrated over to Ikon, but in taking their pass' name too literally, the Alterra folks left off some really compelling regional ski areas that could have established a hub-and-spoke network out of the gate. Lutsen and Granite Peak owner Charles Skinner told me on the podcast a few years back that Ikon never offered his ski areas membership (they joined Indy in 2020), cutting out two of the Midwest's best mountains. The omissions of Mountain Creek, Wachusett, and the New York trio of Belleayre, Whiteface, and Gore ceded huge swaths of the dense and monied Northeast to competitors who saw value in smaller, high-end operations that are day-trip magnets for city folks who also want that week at Deer Valley (no other pass signed any of these mountains, but Vail and Indy both assembled better networks of day-drivers and destinations).On my 2022 interview with HessionOn LiftopiaLiftopia's website is still live, but I'm not sure how many ski areas participate in this Expedia-for-lift-tickets. Six years ago, I thought Liftopia was the next bargain evolution of lift-served skiing. I even hosted founder Evan Reece on one of my first 10 podcasts. The whole thing fell apart when Covid hit. An overview here:On various other day-pass productsI covered this in my initial article, but here's how the Snow Triple Play stacks up against other three-day multi-resort products:On Mountain Creek not mailing passesI don't know anything about tech, but I know, from a skier's point of view, when something works well and when it doesn't. Snow Cloud's tech is incredible in at least one customer-facing respect: when you show up at a ski area, a rep standing in a conspicuous place is waiting with an iPhone, with which they scan a QR code on your phone, and presto-magico: they hand you your ski pass. No lines or waiting. One sentimental casualty of this on-site efficiency was the mailed ski pass, an autumn token of coming winter to be plucked gingerly from the mailbox. And this is fine and makes sense, in the same way that tearing down chairlifts constructed of brontosaurus bones and mastodon hides makes sense, but I must admit that I miss these annual mailings in the same way that I miss paper event tickets and ski magazines. My favorite ski mailing ever, in fact, was not Ikon's glossy fold-out complete with a 1,000-piece 3D jigsaw puzzle of the Wild Blue Gondola and name-a-snowflake-after-your-dog kit, but this simple pamphlet dropped into the envelope with my 2018-19 Mountain Creek season pass:Just f*****g beautiful, Man. That hung on my office wall for years. On the CabrioletThis is just such a wackadoodle ski lift:Onetime Mountain Creek owner Intrawest built similar lifts at Winter Park and Tremblant, but as transit lifts from the parking lot. This one at Mountain Creek is the only one that I'm aware of that's used as an open-air gondola. Get full access to The Storm Skiing Journal and Podcast at www.stormskiing.com/subscribe

Richie is joined by Dr. Vernon Coleman. Vernon is a nationally syndicated columnist, the author of over 100 books and a familiar face and voice on national television and radio. Back in 2020, when fear and confusion swept the country, he did something that few public figures had the courage to do. He stood up for us. He launched An Old Man In A Chair, a quiet yet powerful video series that became a beacon for millions. While others followed the crowd, he spoke truth to power, giving voice to those who felt silenced. Richie invited Vernon to come on and discuss his new book, The End of Medicine: Death by Doctor: Why and how doctors are now paid to kill their patients. In the book, Vernon outlines how the medical establishment has decided that to protect us from global warming, doctors must abandon established practices and their duty of care to patients. Vernon believes that millions will die because of these changes. For more on the book and Vernon's work, visit:https://www.vernoncoleman.com/main.htm
