What if your next STEM lesson started with a 65‑foot whale and a beach cleanup scavenger hunt?For 25 years, Blue Ocean Society has been quietly protecting whales and marine life right in our New England “backyard.” In this ocean-focused episode, Dr. Diane talks with co-founder and executive director Jen Kennedy about how long-term whale research, monthly beach cleanups, and joyful, hands-on education invite kids (and adults) to learn through play while caring for the Gulf of Maine.Jen shares how photo-ID lets them follow individual whales like Pinball and Little Spot over decades, and what threats like entanglement, vessel strikes, warming waters, and shifting prey mean for species such as the North Atlantic right whale. You'll hear how Blue Ocean Society turns data collection into citizen science, trash into art, and curiosity into real-world STEM/STEAM experiences—through their inflatable fin whale, microplastics toolkits, marine-debris art projects, and kid-friendly “scavenger hunt” cleanups.If you love whales, teach STEM/STEAM, or want playful, hopeful ways to connect curiosity, conservation, and hands-on learning, this adventure is for you.Chapters:02:11 – From whale intern to co-founder: the Blue Ocean Society story04:00 – Falling in love with whales, photo-ID, Pinball & Little Spot06:29 – Threats to whales: entanglement, vessels & a warming Gulf of Maine08:20 – Learning through play: inflatable whales, school programs & touch tanks09:46 – Beach cleanups & turning data into action12:36 – Microplastics, foam fragments & upstream choices families can make15:32 – Citizen science: Marine Debris Tracker, microplastics toolkits & kids as scientists20:49 – Dream research cruises, hidden whales & what still excites Jen22:39 – Joy, resilience & favorite whale facts 26:23 – How to donate, volunteer, adopt a whale & what gives Jen hopeLinksBlue Ocean Society Sign up for 2026 Blue Ocean SymposiumFollow on Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedInCall to ActionReady to turn whale wonder into hands-on learning?Choose one single-use item to swap for a reusable option this week and invite your learners to do the same.Plan a “scavenger hunt” cleanup at your schoolyard, park, or local shoreline, and treat it like a STEM investigation.Support the showShare this episode If this conversation sparked wonder, gave you a helpful strategy, or offered a needed reminder of hope, please share it with a friend or colleague.

On this third installment of Febwhaleary we take a look at perhaps the largest acrobats in the sea: the humpback whale. Known for their extraordinary feats of agility, as well as a complex series of songs that they sing to one another, the humpbacks were truly one of the most graceful creatures ever to inhabit the oceans. Unfortunately, the humpbacks would be hunted to extinction in the early 21st century…or so we thought. To understand the fate of the humpbacks, one must look not into the future…but into the past. The year 1986; using a stolen Klingon bird of prey, a group of disgraced Starfleet officers from the 23rd century would travel backwards through time to save, not only the humpbacks, but indeed all of humanity from extinction. The following is a dramatization of those events that we like to call Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home.I'm your host, Dave, and joining me as we lay down a series of colorful metaphors are fellow cinephiles and life long members of the Cetacean Institute in Sausalito, Mike, Ryan, and Jackie.Topics of discussion in this episode include the Enterprise crew's laissez faire attitude towards time travel; we analyze where the alien space probe falls on the Bristol Stool Scale; and finally, we break down the age old fallacy of the odd numbered Trek's being shit.Be sure to rate, review and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. You can also Like Us on Facebook, Follow Us on Instagram, or shoot us an email at apocalypsevideopod@gmail.comAnd with the whales safely transported to the 23rd century, this leg of our voyage is now over. When Febwhaleary concludes, we'll be taking a look at one of the rarest whale species on the planet…the Comeback Whale, as we watch Darren Aronofsky's 2022 Oscar Winner, The Whale.

Plus, a 30-foot whale washes up in Newport Beach, Bellio defends her gas station sushi obsession, KFI’s transmitter “has no chill,” and once again, cars are underwater in North Hollywood.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome back to the Dads & Fathers Podcast — this is day number nine.If you've been tracking with me, you already know this isn't just a casual conversation about parenting tips. This is about identity. It's about calling. It's about becoming the man God created you to be.Today we're asking a bold question:Why should you become a dad?Not just biologically. Not just culturally. But spiritually. Purposefully. Intentionally.There is something inside of you that has not yet been tested. There is greatness in you that has not yet been revealed. And fatherhood has a way of drawing that greatness out.God said about Abraham, “I know him.”He chose Abraham not just because he would have children — but because he would lead them. Because he would command his household. Because he would multiply righteousness in the earth.That's not just Abraham's story.That's an invitation.What kind of man are you becoming?What is in you that deserves to be multiplied?If God were looking across a line of men, would He say, “I want more like him”?Today we're talking about leadership with love. Strength with softness. Authority without harshness. And the holy responsibility of multiplying what God has placed inside you.This one may challenge you.But if you're willing, it could change you.Let's get into it.Partner:This podcast is paid for by my partners.

Ageless Athlete - Fireside Chats with Adventure Sports Icons
This episode brings together moments from conversations recorded throughout 2025 with athletes who have spent decades working inside uncertainty — in the mountains, on open water, on the road, and in daily training.What connects these excerpts is more than accomplishment or outcome. It's how each person has learned to operate when conditions narrow, when simplicity, judgment, and restraint matter more than force.Every clip comes from a full-length episode in the Ageless Athlete back catalog. Below is a guide to the original conversations featured in this collection.Episodes FeaturedSonnie TrotterBreaking large, intimidating goals into something workable through structure, patience, and preparation.
Astros baseball is officially here, and ITL checks the pulse on how everyone is feeling heading into the season and what expectations should realistically look like. The crew then pivots to the Rockets and debates whether the formula is actually simple — knock down threes and win games — or if Ime Udoka may be making things more complicated than they need to be. The hour wraps with today's QOTD: What is your “white whale,” that one thing you've obsessed over your entire life?

In an area which is about 1/400th of the entire sky, the NASA Kepler spacecraft has discovered 30 Earth like planets which are likely to have liquid water on their surfaces orbiting distant stars. These planets are likely to represent a tiny sample of the habitable planets which exist in the Milky Way. In spite of our efforts to find them, the question remains where are the alien civilizations? In a recent talk given at the Division of Planetary Sciences meeting Dr. Alan Stern of the Southwest Research Institute suggests that perhaps the majority of worlds with biology and intelligent civilizations exist on interior water ocean worlds where their existence is hidden by the thick layers of rock and ice which separate them from the hostile vacuum of space. We know that in our solar system alone the moon of Jupiter Europa, Saturn's moon Enceladus, and perhaps several other small worlds are likely to have oceans of nutrient rich liquid water covered by a thick layer of rock and ice. We also know that Whales and Dolphins have larger brains than humans, communicate with each other, and exhibit other forms of intelligence. Advanced civilizations existing in ice covered seas may know little of the greater Universe, may find it difficult to consider transporting enough water to travel beyond their worlds, and may not think that it is possible to communicate with others of their kind who are similarly hidden under miles and miles of radiation absorbing ice and rock.

Dads & Fathers – Day 2: Destiny Is Calling YouWhen Joe Barlow was just 14 years old, something unexpected stirred inside him — a deep, unmistakable calling to be a father. Not just someday… but as part of his identity. In this powerful second episode of Dads & Fathers, Joe unpacks what it means to feel destiny calling your name — and how God places eternity in the heart of a man long before he understands it.What if fatherhood isn't just a role… but a calling?Joe shares personal stories about prophetic words spoken over his life (“father of many”), the joy of providing for his family, and the deep satisfaction that comes from becoming who God created you to be. He challenges fathers to rise up — to move from being takers to becoming givers of life, wisdom, encouragement, and love.You'll discover:• Why destiny often calls long before it manifests• What it truly means to live as a giver• How fatherhood reflects the heart of God• Why becoming the father you're called to be leads to your deepest fulfillment• The power of speaking identity and affirmation over your childrenJoe reminds us that you began your fatherhood journey by giving seed — and you continue it by sowing words, wisdom, and love into the lives of those entrusted to you.This episode is both a wake-up call and an encouragement: You are not finished growing.

Right whale baby boom is giving scientists and conservationists a rare moment of hope, but it comes with a hard question: is this surge in newborn calves enough to save one of the most endangered whales on Earth? With only around 360 North Atlantic right whales left, every birth matters, and this episode breaks down why this moment is so important and why the clock is still ticking. North Atlantic right whale recovery has been painfully slow for decades due to ship strikes, fishing gear entanglement, and shifting ocean conditions. In this episode, we explore what led to 21 calves being born this season, how researchers track these whales, and why human activity remains the biggest threat to their survival, even during a year that feels hopeful. Whale conservation efforts are finally showing signs of progress through vessel slow-down zones, new fishing gear technology, and cross-border cooperation. One of the most emotional insights from this episode is that some female right whales are giving birth for the first time in years, a sign that protection efforts can work if they are strengthened and enforced.
