On this episode of Impact Theory, host Tom Bilyeu sits down with Prof Jiang for a riveting deep dive into the shifting dynamics of global power, the realities behind rising tensions between the US and China, and the future of the world order. Prof Jiang brings a unique perspective shaped by his own cross-continental journey—from childhood in China, to elite education in the West, and back to teaching in Beijing—offering insider insights into how both sides really view the ongoing geopolitical chess match. Together, they unravel the oft-cited “Thucydides Trap,” explore whether China truly seeks global dominance, and challenge common assumptions about the motivations of world leaders, including Trump's moves in Iran and Venezuela. The conversation doesn't stop at geopolitics; Tom Bilyeu and Prof Jiang also break down the cultural realities shaping policy, the role of eschatology and religious extremism in international relations, and what the coming fragmentation of global systems could mean for everyday people. Whether you're curious about economic theory, fascinated by history's lessons, or trying to make sense of today's headlines, this discussion delivers sharp analysis and thought-provoking debate from two of the most insightful minds working at the intersection of East and West. Prof Jiang's journey has been marked by unexpected turns and intense moments. After a major accomplishment (“we demolished it”), Prof Jiang faced confusion as news emerged about sending boats to Iran, prompting questions about the purpose and direction of these actions. As uprisings increased and more ships were dispatched to help, Prof Jiang grappled with uncertainty—especially when decisive action failed to materialize amidst tragic civilian losses. Amid rising tensions and talk of nuclear weapons, Prof Jiang's story is one of critical questioning and navigating complex geopolitical events, always seeking clarity and accountability in turbulent times.

On today's episode, host Kate Lindsay is joined by Slate senior writer Scaachi Koul, who profiled author Lindy West. West's new book, Adult Braces, details, among many things, her coming to grips with being in a polyamorous relationship. But opening up this complicated story to an audience has incited a tidal-wave of feedback about not just West, but also her partners, Aham Oluo and Roya Amirsoleymani. West is no stranger to online trolls, but something about this time feels different—and the way she and her partners are responding (including in emails to Koul herself) is only making things worse.This podcast is produced by Vic Whitley-Berry, Daisy Rosario, and Kate Lindsay, with help from Kevin Bendis.

In a world beset by climatic emergencies, the continuing resonance of the flood story is perhaps easy to understand. Whether in the tortured alpha male intensity of Russell Crowe's Noah, in Darren Aronofsky's eponymous 2014 film, or other recent derivations, the biblical narrative has become a lightning rod for gathering environmental anxieties. However, Philip C. Almond's masterful exploration of Western cultural history uncovers a far more complex Noah than is commonly recognised: not just the father of humanity but also the first shipbuilder, navigator, zookeeper, farmer, grape grower, and wine maker. Noah's pivotal significance is revealed as much in his forgotten secular as in his religious receptions, and their major impact on such disciplines as geology, geography, biology, and zoology. While Noah's many interpretations over two millennia might seem to offer a common message of hope, the author's sober conclusion to Noah and the Flood in Western Thought (Cambridge UP, 2025) is that deliverance now lies not in divine but rather in human hands. Philip C. Almond is Emeritus Professor in the History of Religious Thought at The University of Queensland. A noted authority in the history of religion and of ideas, he has written many books on subjects as diverse as God, the Devil, the afterlife, witchcraft and witches, Adam and Eve, heaven and hell in Enlightenment England, and early modern demonic possession. His recent works include The Buddha: Life and Afterlife Between East and West (2024), Mary Magdalene: A Cultural History (2023), and The Antichrist: A New Biography (2020), all published by Cambridge University Press. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand. His research interests are Cultural Studies; Critical Theory; Environmental History; Medieval (Intellectual) History; Gothic Studies; 18th and 19th Century British Literature.

John Luke and Zach respond to sharp criticism, pushing back on a mindset that shuts down honest questions instead of engaging them. Al walks through the historical events that set the stage for Christianity's explosion onto the world scene, including Nero's brutal persecution of Jesus' followers. Meanwhile, Christian digs into the cultural significance of the gymnasium and how it revealed the tension between Greek and Jewish ways of life. Today's conversation is about Lessons 3 of Ancient Christianity taught by visiting Hillsdale Professor of History Kenneth Calvert. Take the course with us at no cost to you! Sign up at http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/. More about Ancient Christianity: Christ entered the world during the reign of Caesar Augustus. The tensions between Christianity and the Roman Empire shaped the daily practice of the Christian faith and led many Romans to distrust and persecute the early Christians. But Christianity also benefitted from the Roman world. And when Rome collapsed in the West, Christianity provided the hope for preserving civilization. In this free, eleven-lecture course, Professor Kenneth Calvert will explore: How the Jewish, Greek, and Roman cultures all contributed to preparing the world to hear the Gospel. Why many Romans distrusted and persecuted the early Christians. The inspiring stories of Christ, His apostles, and faithful ones throughout the first four centuries of Christianity. The arguments of key early Christian apologists—Ignatius, Irenaeus, Justin, Athanasius, and more—who defended and defined the Christian faith amidst the animosity of the Roman world. The conversion of Constantine and how he brought stability to Rome, and how the rivalry between his sons almost returned Rome to paganism. How Augustine's writings helped preserve the message of Christianity during the collapse of the Roman Empire in the West. You will discover the uncertainties, trials, and triumphs of the earliest Christians as they confronted controversies within the faith and persecutions from outside it. Join us today to discover the improbable and miraculous story of Christianity.

Yoga is an ancient practice with its roots in Hinduism. It originated over 5,000 years ago in northern India, but for many, has now evolved from a spiritual path into the wellness practice known globally. In the West, millions now do yoga as a form of exercise and wellbeing. It is an industry thought to be worth tens of billions of dollars. But as it has boomed, yoga has been interpreted in new and sometimes controversial ways. What has been dubbed 'Christian yoga' has gained loyal supporters, who say it helps them reconnect body and soul. But not everyone agrees. Some within the Hindu faith argue that Christian yoga risks stripping an ancient practice of its religious roots. Then, there are Christians who say the practice is “not of Jesus”. Megan Lawton meets teachers of Christian yoga and those who don't believe yoga and Christianity can ever be compatible.

Luca, Stelios and Firas discuss the dark developments on abortion in Britain, what's going on in Cuba, and the theological differences between Israel and the West.

Today, we pull back the curtain on a global headline. Not to debate. Not to distract. But to confront the dark reality few dare to face: the brutality of the Iranian regime.Paul M. Neuberger isn't here to repeat viral narratives. He's here, Bible in one hand, history in the other, to expose the suffering no hashtag will fix—women beaten, protestors disappeared, children silenced under a system that calls evil good and good evil.You won't hear this in the mainstream. Why? Because courage will cost you—ridicule, backlash, exile from the comfortable crowd. But we're not called to comfort. We're called to kingdom clarity.Justice demands more than outrage—it demands moral courage.Jesus is still Lord—even when the West goes silent.The line's been drawn. When your moment of truth comes, where will you stand?Buckle up. This one's going to be raw, real, and rooted in the Word."Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter." –Isaiah 5:20Episode Highlights:07:18 – Instead of asking questions, people assume motives. Instead of seeking facts, people repeat narratives. Instead of pursuing discernment, people react emotionally. But outrage isn't discernment. Emotion isn't wisdom. And viral opinions aren't the same thing as truth.38:24 – Christians aren't called to quietly tolerate injustice. We're called to expose it, not out of hatred, not out of vengeance, but out of a commitment to truth. The prophets of the Old Testament confronted corrupt kings and unjust systems. Jesus himself challenged the religious authorities of his day when they misused their power.41:49 – Real peace is the presence of justice, and justice requires the courage to confront systems that harm the innocent and silence the vulnerable. Millions of Iranians have spent years risking their safety to protest against their own government. Many of them have paid a terrible price for that courage. Their stories deserve to be heard. Connect with Paul M. NeubergerWebsite

We break down the magic from Miami and look back at the dominant sweep of the Rockets that set the stage for this historic run. Segment One: 60 in South Beach—Luka's Statement to the World The Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Miami Heat 134–126 on Thursday night, but the story was Luka Dončić.

Welcome to a new episode of The Way Out Is In: The Zen Art of Living, a podcast series mirroring Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh's deep teachings of Buddhist philosophy: a simple yet profound methodology for dealing with our suffering, and for creating more happiness and joy in our lives. The first of a series of six episodes recorded during the pilgrimage ‘In the Footsteps of the Buddha’, this instalment was made in Varanasi, India, in February 2026. In this opening episode, Zen Buddhist monk Brother Phap Huu and leadership coach Jo Confino are joined by Dharma teacher Shantum Seth to discuss the importance of understanding the Buddha as a fully human being; a boat journey on the sacred Ganges river at sunrise, from which it was possible to witness cremation and devotion; teachings on death and impermanence as daily practice; the importance of living in the present moment; and much more.The speakers also share personal experiences and reflections on their spiritual journeys, the role played by the community, and the continuation of the Buddha’s teachings through their own lives and practice.About the pilgrimage: In 1988, Shantum Seth was invited by Thich Nhat Hanh (Thay) to organize a pilgrimage to the sacred sites associated with the Buddha's life across India. Subsequently, Thay encouraged Shantum to continue guiding such journeys each year, offering pilgrimage itself as a mindfulness practice—one that the Buddha had suggested. Shantum has been leading these transformative journeys ever since, offering people from around the world the opportunity to follow In the Footsteps of the Buddha with awareness and insight. After 15 years at the United Nations, Shantum left to volunteer with the Ahimsa Trust, which represents Thay's work in India and promotes the practice of “peace in oneself and peace in the world”. Through Buddhapath, his expression of Right Livelihood, Shantum continues to guide pilgrimages and share the wisdom and culture of the places he visits in India and across Buddhist Asia, cultivating community through these deeply meaningful journeys.To learn more about upcoming pilgrimages, visit www.buddhapath.com, or follow Shantum on Facebook and Instagram at @eleven_directions. Shantum Seth, an ordained Dharmacharya (Dharma teacher) in the Buddhist Mindfulness lineage of Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh, teaches in India and across the world. A co-founder of Ahimsa Trust, he has been a student of Thich Nhat Hanh's teachings for the past 35 years, and, since 1988, has led pilgrimages and other multi-faith, educational, cultural, spiritual, and transformative journeys across diverse regions of India and Asia. He is actively involved in educational, social, and ecological programmes, including work on cultivating mindfulness in society, including with educators, the Indian Central Reserve Police Force, and the corporate sector. Across various Indian sanghas, Dharmacharya Shantum is the primary teacher of different practices of mindfulness from Thich Nhat Hanh's tradition.

Every breath is an offering.” “The transformation is both individual and collective – and not just right now; it is something which seeps into our understanding and informs our life. The real journey begins when you get home. When you see your familiar surroundings with these pilgrimage lenses, those are very, very important moments. When you see your familiar surroundings slightly differently, and you see what brings you suffering, what brings you joy, what brings a sense of ease, then you can tweak your life.” “Siddhartha always says, ‘I’m on this path not for power, not for leadership, but to find liberation within us.' And that means we have to be ready to let go of all of the ideology that we have received from our ancestors, not from just us, but from the lineage of our whole ancestors and society.” “We can be free amidst the suffering. We can still find our calm, our peace with every storm that arises, that manifests. We find a way to understand it, to embrace it even, because we see that that storm is a part of us.” “In the Mahaparinirvāṇa Sutta, the Buddha said, ‘Go to the places where I was born, died, where the first teachings were given, where I awakened.' But I think he’s saying, ‘Leave your familiar surroundings and explore, and you’ll find different seeds in your consciousness being touched, which are not touched when you go every day to work or in your familiar surroundings.' And that is the learning of yourself. It’s an interior journey on this exterior part.” “In India, your path to God is through your guru – but in the Buddha Dharma, the guru shows you the path, and you walk it. In the classic example of the Buddha pointing to the moon, he says, ‘Don’t get caught looking at my finger; look at the moon.'” “Somebody once asked Thay, ‘What happens when we die?' He said, ‘I don’t know, but I can tell you what happens when we’re alive.'” “The only ingredient that you have any control about for the future is the present. We can only act in the present. As you know, the past is gone, the future is an idea – but all these situations that arise in our lives, how do we respond appropriately? With ethics, with a sense of calm, with a sense of love, how can we respond appropriately to each situation? Because that is the ingredient for the future.” “The Buddha is saying, ‘Stay open, stay alive. This is the most precious moment. This is a gift. And when we die, we’ll have no control over it.'” “In Indian philosophy, we don't have only yes or no. We say, yes, no, neither yes or no, both yes and no. So it’s the idea that I am the same person, I’m a different person, I’m neither the same or a different person, and both the same person and the different person. That’s the Buddha Dharma’s understanding of continuity, birth and death, and in that we don’t get caught.” “Awakening is a collective awakening.” “The Buddha was teaching us how to be a human being, how to take both the joy and the happiness of being a human being, but also to understand the suffering of a human being, and then take suffering as a noble truth. But it’s a noble truth only because we can transform it – otherwise it’s just plain old suffering. Use suffering as the compost for liberation. Looking at the cause, knowing the path to overcome suffering. And that’s key in Buddha. Otherwise, death is suffering, loss is suffering. The Buddha is saying, ‘Take that and look at it deeply, transform it, and live your life today as if it’s your last moment, your first moment, your present moment, our present moment.'” “Secular in India means different from secular in the West. Secular in India means respecting all religions. It doesn’t mean non-religious. I was brought up in a household like that, where we had Hindu icons, Christian icons, Islamic icons, everything. And we would go to midnight mass or go to a mosque or go to a temple, but we were not religious. It was just respecting people like that. And we had friends from every religion.”

Marking America's 250th anniversary, they unpack the Declaration of Independence's timeless truths—that all men are created equal, endowed by their Creator with unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness—rooted in biblical principles, natural law, and the founders' belief in objective morality. West reveals how these "self-evident" ideas made America a unique creed-based nation and why surveys show most Americans today misunderstand or reject their divine source. The discussion contrasts the American founding with the French Revolution's utopian failures, then traces how 19th-century Darwinian evolution undermined human equality, objective morality, human exceptionalism, and consent-based government—fueling racism, eugenics, moral relativism, and technocratic rule. Yet West offers hope: modern science increasingly reaffirms a Creator, human dignity, and the Declaration's core truths. Essential viewing for anyone passionate about America's founding principles, liberty, virtue, and the future of the nation. Get the book now! "Endowed by Our Creator" by John G.

POP 3:The Summer House midseason trailer is here and while it looks messy, I'm not fully buying what they're selling—so many moments feel chopped, pasted, and out of context. We get into the Kyle vs. Carl chaos, Amanda's suspicious soundbites, West & Ciara's emotional rollercoaster, and why I think half these dramatic quotes are NOT what they seem. Then we talk Beyond the Villa season 2 and why it already feels stronger than season 1 (even without some key cast members), plus the Huda Mustafa restraining order drama and her response. And finally, Craig Conover hints he may be done with Southern Charm—but is he actually the backbone of the show or are we all just stuck in the same Craig cycle?DEEP DIVE:We're unpacking the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives production pause as a domestic violence investigation involving Taylor Frankie Paul and Dakota Mortensen unfolds. With allegations on both sides, custody arrangements, and even psych evaluations reportedly required, the situation is getting serious fast. The timing is especially wild with The Bachelorette rollout happening at the same time, raising questions about casting decisions and vetting. Plus, I'm getting into the role production may play in continuously putting Taylor and Dakota in volatile situations—and why the rest of MomTok seems to be distancing themselves.FINAL THOUGHTS:The Love Is Blind reunion proved once again… this show has a LEAK problem because none of these updates shocked me. From Jordan & Amber's divorce to Bri & Connor still being together (called it), we break down what actually mattered...and what didn't. Chris was giving wax figure energy, Nick Lachey was coming in HOT, and Alex might have irritated me more than anyone else on that stage.JOIN THE PATREON - www.patreon.com/MorgansPopTalks

Air defense looks clean on a diagram. In real war, it is messy, conditional, and expensive in ways most people never see until the alarms are late and the interceptors are flying in bunches. We sit down with Daryl Cooper to translate the jargon and show what “layered missile defense” actually means when Iranian ballistic missiles, drones, and cruise missile threats pressure the system day after day. We walk through the U.S. missile defense stack in plain English: Aegis on ships, THAAD and Patriot batteries on land, the radar and satellite cueing that stitches everything into one shared track picture, and the uncomfortable truth that each layer covers the weaknesses of the others. We also get into why radar performance depends on physics and conditions, including clutter, sunrise effects, and smoke, and how losing early warning sensors can collapse warning time from minutes to seconds. That shift forces engagements into late mid-course or terminal phase, where hit probabilities drop and the price of staying safe becomes volleys of interceptors per incoming missile. Then we zoom out to the strategy and politics shaping the Iran Israel conflict and the wider Middle East war. We talk saturation tactics, multiple re-entry vehicles, engagement queue limits, and the core economic imbalance where defense often costs far more than offense. Finally, we tackle U.S. foreign policy fallout through the Tomahawk missile controversy and what happens when leaders deny what the weapons, timelines, and target decks can confirm. Subscribe for more deep dives, share this with a friend who wants a clearer view of missile defense and Middle East security, and leave a review with your biggest question after listening.

Tomasz Nadrowski is the author of “Mineral War: China's Quest for Weapons of Mineral Destruction.” In this episode, host Bill Powers interviews Tomasz to understand the nature of this mineral war so that investors can discern the best profit opportunities. Nadrowski shares that China has quasi-monopolized and weaponized critical mineral supply chains, forcing the West to rebuild upstream-to-downstream value chains where geopolitics can matter as much as geology. He describes his mining and hedge fund background, his fund's focus on rare earths, battery materials, and specialty metals, and the need to assess offtake, processing capacity, and government policy. Tomasz argues effective policy requires three levers: upstream reference prices, protection via tariffs, and downstream incentives to adopt Western/allied materials instead of cheap Chinese supply; he criticizes cost-plus pricing while viewing the MP Materials deal as a market signal lowering capital costs. The discussion covers tungsten (China's ~82% control), top monopolies (heavy rare earths, gallium, flake graphite), gallium and germanium sourcing, China's Africa deal structure and debt effects, China's control of nickel via Indonesia, and trading/exit discipline amid high volatility. 00:00 Intro 00:20 Meet the Guest 00:52 Mining to Hedge Funds 02:32 Mineral War Thesis 03:45 How the Fund Invests 06:14 Government Grants Angle 08:09 Price Floors Debate 10:26 Tariffs and Incentives 12:21 Tungsten Spotlight 14:29 Why China Restricts Exports 17:18 China in Africa Playbook 19:51 Africa Debt Reckoning 21:49 What to Call This System 22:51 China Debt Dilemma 23:51 Critical Minerals Ranking 24:24 Why Gallium Matters 26:49 Germanium Supply and Stockpiles 28:36 US Policy Whiplash 30:23 Nickel Indonesia China Proxy 32:11 Competing with China Standards 35:05 Investing Exit Strategy Tomasz's book: https://www.amazon.com/Mineral-War-Chinas-Weapons-Destruction/dp/B0GHDYRLZK Tomasz's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nadrowski Tomasz's fund: https://www.amvestterraden.com/ Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 This was not a sponsored interview.

Host Grant Mona is joined by Mykell Mathieu and Demetrius Beaver for a loaded Wednesday night edition of The Sporting Tribune Today. We're dissecting a sliding Clippers squad, the Lakers' championship trajectory, and two massive landscape-shifting stories in the NFL and WNBA. Segment One: Three Straight and Falling—What's Wrong with the Clippers? The guys react to the Los Angeles Clippers' third consecutive loss, a 124–109 defeat at the hands of the New Orleans Pelicans. Despite an early 18-point lead, the Clippers (34–34) crumbled in the second half, allowing Saddiq Bey and Trey Murphy to run wild. The "Garland-Kawhi" Disconnect: Grant, Mykell, and Demetrius discuss why the offense has stagnated during this skid and if the defense—which gave up 124 points—is sustainable for a Play-In run. Ty Lue's Adjustments: Is it time to tighten the rotation, or is this just a chemistry-building tax following the mid-season trades? Segment Two: Title Windows and Transformational Deals The panel shifts gears to three of the biggest stories hitting the wire: Lakers Title Odds: With Luka Dončić playing at an MVP level and the Lakers sitting firmly in the 3rd seed (43–25), the guys debate if $+5000$ title odds are disrespectful. Are the Lakers the true threat to the Nuggets in the West? Rams' "KC Connection": Reaction to the official acquisitions of Trent McDuffie and Jaylen Watson. Grant breaks down why Les Snead was willing to pay McDuffie a record-breaking $124M extension and how these two former Chiefs corners change the Rams' draft strategy for the No. 13 pick. WNBA's Landmark CBA: A breakdown of the historic verbal agreement reached today. From million-dollar supermax salaries to a $7.5M salary cap and 20% revenue sharing, the guys discuss how this "transformational" deal ensures the May 8 season opener and changes the game for stars like Caitlin Clark and JuJu Watkins.

“The problem is Islam. The problem is Muhammad,” says Tommy Robinson, who came from England to warn America about how the far Left is using Muslim immigrants to shore up its own political power. After watching the unchecked rise of Islam in his hometown in England, he “picked up a camera and became a journalist,” documenting the gut-wrenching reality of Pakistani rape gangs, “chemical jihad,” and the slow death of free speech in the United Kingdom. Despite facing defamation, legal challenges, and prison time for refusing to censor his opinion about the incompatibility of Islam with the West, Tommy unflinchingly exposes the members of the Labour Party, the BBC, and the mainstream media complicit in the decline of Britain. Solitary confinement was meant to break his spirit, but his time in America and the inspiration of men like Elon Musk and Donald Trump are “healing” him. “Our hope has come from America.” Warning: Tommy Robinson is a proper British man who curses like a “football hooligan.”        GLENN'S SPONSORS:       Byrna: Byrna is the best alternative to deadly force.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 149 The Long March Through the Institutions is a Marxist strategy for infiltrating the West through its institutions. Realizing by the 1960s that they would not be able to take the United States and Western Civilization from the outside, Marxists started formulating strategies in the "Western Marxist" canon to take it from the inside. That required taking over its institutions and transforming them and their culture. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay explains this insidious concept and strategy and how it continues to this day, now infiltrating conservative institutions too.

That's exactly what's happening to a fourth-generation ranch family in Washington State. Wade and Teresa King have been running cattle on their land for generations. Like thousands of ranchers across the West, they built small stock ponds so their cattle have water in dry country.An American woman loses both parents and goes through their Social Security records. They paid in for DECADES — nearly $1,000,000 combined. Her dad died before collecting a CENT.Her mom only received about $32,000 a year for four years. That's not a safety net. It's a SCAM.As @MayaMacGuineas explains, right now we spend $6 on seniors for every $1 on kids under 18. When Social Security began, seniors were the poorest — today children are.

Europe is deathly afraid of a nuclear Iran, but it does not want to do anything about it. What explains this European schizophrenia? President Donald Trump has a simple, straightforward request of America's so‑called European allies: While the U.S. uses all of its assets to disarm a common threat to the West, could they send a few ships to help patrol the Strait of Hormuz? By and large, the answer has been a resounding “no.” That is notable, Victor Davis Hanson points out on today's edition of Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words, considering it was not too long ago that the United States set aside its own diplomatic interests to help Britain in its mission retake the Falkland Islands from Argentina.

WhoTim Smith, President and General Manager of Waterville Valley, New HampshireRecorded onNovember 12, 2025About Waterville ValleyClick here for a mountain stats overviewOwned by: The Sununu FamilyLocated in: Waterville Valley, New HampshireYear founded: 1966Pass affiliations:* Indy Pass, Indy+ Pass: 2 days, no blackouts* White Mountain Super Pass: unlimited, no blackouts* Indy Learn-to-Turn: 3 days, includes rentals, lesson, lift ticket; limited lift access* Ski New Hampshire Kids Passport: 1 day with holiday blackouts* Uphill New England: no lift accessBase elevation: 1,984 feet (highest in New Hampshire, 3rd in New England)Summit elevation: 4,004 feet (2nd-highest in New Hampshire, 5th in New England)Vertical drop: 2,020 feet (4th-highest in New Hampshire, 14th in New England)Skiable acres: 265Average annual snowfall: 148 inchesTrail count: 62 (14% novice, 64% intermediate, 22% advanced)Lift count: 10 (1 six-pack, 1 high-speed quad, 2 triples, 2 doubles, 2 T-bars, 2 carpets)Why I interviewed himWell no one wants to hear this but we got to $300 lift tickets the same way we got to $80,000 pickup trucks. We're Americans Goddamnit and we just can't do stickshifts and we sure as s**t ain't standin' up on our skis to ride back up the mountain. It's pure agony you see. We need us a nine-pack chairlift with a bubble and a breakroom and a minibar and surround sound and Lazy-Boy seats and hell no we ain't ridin' it with eight strangers we'll hold back and take a whole chair to our ownselves. And it needs to move fast, Son. Like embarrass-the-Concord fast because God help us we spend more than 90 seconds with our own thoughts.I'm not aiming to get kicked out of America here, but if I may submit a few requests regarding our self-inflicted false price floors. I would like the option of purchasing a brand-new car with a manual transmission and windows rolled up and down with a hand-crank. I would like to keep pedaling my bicycle. I would like to cut the number of holidays with commercial mandates by 80 percent. I would prefer that we not set the air-conditioners to 60 when it's 65 degrees outside. This doesn't mean I want to get rid of all the air-conditioners but could we maybe take it easy on the frostbite-in-July overkill of it all?My Heretic Wishlist for American Skiing includes but is not limited to: more surface lifts, especially to serve terrain parks, high-altitude exposed terrain, and expert pods; on-resort lodging that does not still require a commute-by-personal-vehicle to reach the lifts; and thoughtful terrain management that retains ungroomed sections for skiers who like things about skiing other than going fast.Waterville Valley is doing all of these things. It is perhaps the only major American ski area in decades to replace a chairlift with a surface lift on a non-beginner terrain pod, and the only one to build two new T-bars this century. A planned gondola would connect Waterville Valley the town with Waterville Valley the ski area, correcting an only-in-America setup that separates these inseparable places by two miles of road. The glade network grows annually in both subtle and obvious ways.This is not a ski area going in reverse. Waterville is modern and keeps modernizing. The four-year-old Tecumseh bubble six-pack, though bookended with T-bars, is one of the nicest chairlifts in America. Skiers still go groomer-kaboom on morning cord. Suburban office-park dads with interstate commutes and a habit of lecturing the Facebook Commons about the virtues of snow tires can still park their 42-wheel-drive Abrams-Caterpillar-F-15,000 Tanktruck in sub-parking lot 42Z and walk uphill to the lifts. But Waterville Valley is one of a handful of American ski areas, along with Killington and Deer Valley and Winter Park, that is embracing all of our luxe cultural excesses while pursuing the very un-American ambition of putting more skiers close to skiing.No ski area is perfect. For all the cash saved on those T-bars, peak-day Waterville lift tickets still hit $145. The mountain's season pass is the second-most expensive single-mountain season passes in New England – more than a top-line Epic Pass (an adult WV pass includes a free pass for a kid age 6 to 12, which is great if you have one of those). That's bold pricing for the 22nd-largest ski area in New England, especially one that still spins three Stadeli chairlifts that predate the extinction of the dinosaurs. And two high-speed chairlifts is not a lot of high-speed chairlifts for a 2,000-vertical-foot ski area (though about half of New England's 2,000-footers run just two or fewer detaches).Yeah I know. Sick burn from someone who was waxing about surface lifts four paragraphs ago. I may have collected too many ski area Lego blocks in my mental bucket, and they don't always click together back here on planet Earth. “More villages,” I say while dismissing Aspen as a subsidized simulacrum of itself. “Big fast lifts rule,” I say while setting off fire alarms as first-generation chairlifts disintegrate and the cost of their most basic replacements escalates. “No-grooming, all-glades makes the best ski area,” I say, while condemning resort operators for $356 lift tickets that dam the masses. “Vail is too expensive,” I say. “Vail is too cheap,” I also say. “Modernize our chairlifts,” I say while celebrating the joy of riding an antique Riblet double. I endorse ski areas splitting off from conglomerates and ski areas joining them. These narratives can feel contradictory at best and schizophrenic at worst.But that tension is part of what draws me to lift-served ski areas, where two things central to my worldview – wild nature and human invention – merge. Or perhaps more accurately, collide. Both forces act at all times not only to extinguish one another, but themselves: above-freezing temps trash two feet of new snow; bad liftline management cancels out the capacity benefits of a $12 million lift upgrade. Making a ski area function, then, requires continual tweaking, of both the nuanced and look-at-us-press-release variety. A ski area is a business, sure, but that's almost a coincidence. The act of building and running a ski area is foremost an art, architecture, and engineering project that requires a somewhat madcap conductor to succeed. As with any artform, there is no one correct and final way to build a ski area. The variety is central to skiing's appeal. But there are operator/artist attributes - flexibility, inventiveness, consistency tempered by openness to change - that contribute to the overall quality and cohesion of the individual ski area experience in the context of competing ski areas. In the current version of Waterville Valley, we find one of our best contemporary examples of a ski area evolving toward the best version of itself under the stewardship of owners and managers possessing exactly these traits.What we talked aboutThe return of World Cup training and events to Waterville; drifting away from and back toward freeskiing culture; the best terrain parks in New England; why terrain parks are drifting away from mega-features; what happened to all the halfpipes?; and ramps?; no really no one wore helmets in the ‘90s; building terrain parks before institutional knowledge and the internet; the lost Hidden Valley, Wisconsin ski area; the rise of the high-speed ropetow; why Waterville replaced one T-bar and one Poma with a new T-bar (rather than a chairlift); why Waterville installed night skiing; the return of the Exhibition terrain park; self-installing the World Cup T-bar; Waterville's ops blog; why the Tecumseh Express sixer needed new bubbles after just a couple of seasons; why bubbles cost so much and how Waterville manufactured a less expensive one; Tecumseh's incredible wind resistance; MND lifts as an alternative to the two large U.S.-based lift manufacturers; a chairlift's “infancy” and how different 2020s lift technology is from early detachable tech; how Waterville's masterplan would reorient the mountain and skier traffic with an expansion and new lifts; Waterville's declining skier visits and whether that's a bad thing; how the resort's 1994 bankruptcy changed Waterville's trajectory; what stoked the Green Peak expansion; “we've been on a track to try to rebuild that energy we saw in the 1990s”; why Waterville turned away from discounting; “the right quantity of skiers on the right amount of surface”; building more terrain diversity; and a gondola connection from town to mountain.Should someone tell them they're running it backwards? Video by Stuart Winchester.What I got wrong* I said that the “High Country double chair was still standing” – what I meant was that parts of it were still in place. The top terminal remains, sans bullwheel, and the base terminal and motor room remain as a patrol shack:* I said that Waterville hadn't been known for terrain parks until recently, but Smith recalled that the ski area was more freestyle-centric from the ‘70s through the ‘90s, before pulling back during the first part of this century.* I said that 1,100 skiers per hour was “a little less than what a double chair would move,” thinking standard capacity for a double was 1,200 per hour. Smith says it is 900. Exact capacity varies from lift-to-lift, however. Lift Blog itemizes hourly capacities of between 800 and 1,200 for four of Smugglers' Notch's double chairs, between 1,000 and 1,200 for four of Mt. Spokane's fleet of Riblet doubles, and 1,000 for Waterville's Lower Meadows double. We all know, however, that the hourly capacity for a double chair is however many people are in line minus the number not paying attention minus singles who refuse to ride with anyone. So I don't know maybe 50.Podcast NotesOn other mentioned podcasts* World Cup competition returning to Sun Valley:* Heavenly backing out of mega-parks features:* Killington and the cost of bubbles:* Waterville part 1, from 2021:On Partek and each lift being differentOn Waterville's ownership historyFounder Tom Corcoran owned Waterville Valley from 1966 until 1994, when he sold to American Skiing Company (ASC) antecedent S-K-I. The feds made ASC dispense with Waterville and Cranmore when they merged with LBO Enterprises in 1996. Booth Creek (more on them below), bought the ski area and held it until 2010, when they sold it to the Sununu family. This makes Waterville one of just a handful of ski areas to ever enter a multi-mountain pass portfolio and then exit to independence - though Killington and Ragged recently did exactly that, and Eldora may follow.On Mt. Holiday, MichiganThis is just a little 200-footer, but it's still around on the outskirts of Traverse City, Michigan:That trailmap doesn't really communicate the ski area's essence. A little better are these pics I took on a summertime swing-through a few years back:I never skied there though, always preferring the far-larger Sugar Loaf, right down the road (which Smith and I also discussed):Until it was abandoned around 2000, this was one of the better ski areas in Michigan's Lower Peninsula. After a succession of owners - one of whom stripped all the chairlifts off the bump - failed to bring skiing back, the Leelanau Conservancy recently took ownership of the property. Skiing will return as an officially sanctioned activity, though unfortunately without a lift or snowmaking. I would have at least liked to have seen a ropetow. Here's their vision:On midwestskier.com Yes, Kids, the internet really did used to look like this:On Hidden Valley, WisconsinHere's a little ski hill that didn't make it. Smith spent time at Hidden Valley, Wisconsin, which opened in 1956 and closed forever in 2013. The chairlift appears to have been moved to nearby, county-run Kewaunee Winter Park, where it awaits installation.On high-speed ropetowsI am a huge fan of high-speed ropetows, which are a cheap and effective means to isolate users of terrain parks or other specialized, intensive-use zones from the broader ski area. Here's one at Spirit Mountain, Minnesota in 2023 (video by Stuart Winchester):On Waterville Valley's masterplanThis is perhaps the best angle of how Waterville's expansion would connect the legacy trail network to the town:Here's the Forest Service masterplan slide:Neither of these images, however, show how the gondola would eventually connect down into town, which is the crucial element of transforming Waterville Valley from a ski-area-that-says-it's-a-ski-resort into an actual ski resort. Here's a look at that connection:Waterville set up an excellent microsite detailing the hoped-for evolution.On Booth CreekAt the mid-90s height of American Skiing Company dominance, a former Vail executive assembled a cross-country ski area portfolio with ambitions of creating a hub-and-spoke network:Booth Creek ultimately sold off most of its properties, but still own Sierra-at-Tahoe. Grand Targhee GM Geordie Gillett was involved in the whole saga and broke it down for us in 2024:On Waterville going from one of the oldest lift fleets in New England to one of the most modernWhile Waterville runs some of the last Stadeli lifts in America (I count 16), the ski area has modernized extensively over the past decade:On U.S. Forest Service ski areas in the EastMost (109) of the 119 active U.S. ski areas on United States Forest Service leases sit in the West; two are in the Midwest, and eight are in the East: Bromley, Mount Snow, and Sugarbush, Vermont; Waterville Valley, Loon, Attitash, and Wildcat, New Hampshire; and Timberline, West Virginia. None, as far as I know, sit entirely within the boundaries of a national forest, but even partial overlap triggers the requirement to submit an updated masterplan each decade.The Storm explores the world of lift-served skiing year-round.

They discuss Russia's rich and powerful keeping families and assets in the West, the propagandist Solovyov “going rogue” as he criticizes military shortages and communications bans, and how a widening internet and messenger crackdown—especially severe in central Moscow—may relate to purges around Shoigu and fears of elite plotting. Constantine describes severe economic disruption from unreliable internet, business closures, layoffs, and unpaid salaries, likening it to a Titanic-style collapse. They also assess how higher oil prices may briefly ease pressure without saving the regime, and argue Russia is losing allies and geopolitical standing, citing Iran, Syria, and BRICS fading from propaganda.----------CHAPTERS:01:41 Surkov Rumors and Exile06:03 Londongrad and Elite Safe Havens11:04 Solovyov Goes Off Script12:59 Propagandists Smell Change16:35 Shoigu Purge and Internet Link18:34 Moscow Internet Blackout Mystery22:20 Frontline Fallout and Civilian Disruption25:09 Army Comms Breakdown26:03 Internet Shutdown Fallout26:37 Businesses Freeze Up27:53 Daily Life Disrupted28:47 Layoffs And Panic29:36 Titanic Collapse Analogy30:56 Wake Up Call And History32:40 Satire And Denial34:12 Oil Price Windfall41:38 Putin Abandons Allies----------
