Podcasts about Wharf

Rare thing to be able to say- but Wellington City Council has just made a sensible decision and voted against erecting a fence along the entire length of Kumutoto and Queen's Wharf. Now, if you know the part of Wellington that I'm talking about here, it's the area seaside of the TSB Bank Arena and Fergs and Shed 5 and Foxglove and so on. That whole area at the moment has beautiful concrete walkways that have been laid, lovely seating and lighting and so on. And then there's a little barrier either side. If there's sea on the other side, there's a little barrier that comes up to a concrete barrier, maybe mid-shin for you. Now, council officials planned to erect a fence instead - a full-length fence either side of every walkway, up to about 1.2 meters or so, lining almost the entire walkway, 3.5 km of it, at the cost of maybe as much as $30 million. And they wanted the council - probably because they realized how this is going to go down with people - to rush through voting on it without talking to the public about it first. For once, Wellington City Council has actually done the right thing and pumped the brakes here. I think, to be fair to the officials, that this is coming from a good place and that this is the recommendation in a coroner's report. A coroner has had a look at somebody who's fallen into the water, died in the drink, and said: you should put a fence up. Because there have been a few examples lately, especially young men who've got on the raz and then fallen into the water, and that has been the end of them. But - this is gonna sound harsh - I don't think that you fence off an entire walkway because some young people sometimes have a drink and then fall in. I don't want, just as much as you - I don't want people to die needlessly in accidents. But there is a balance to be struck here between personal responsibility and safety measures that we put up to stop stuff happening. I think you go for an intermediate thing here. You stick up some lights, you make sure people can see where they're going in the dark, but you do not fence off the entire thing because that is overkill. It is not normal for us to have fences between ourselves and the sea. Take Auckland, where I live at the moment. Go for a walk under Auckland's Harbour Bridge, there are huge stretches exactly like this. No fence whatsoever. You're just walking there and there's the sea. It's a fall down, you just have to look after yourself and be careful. Walk on piers anywhere in this country, they often do not have fences. You've just got to watch where you're going. If you chuck up a fence, you stop people doing what they're supposed to do near the sea, which is sitting there looking at it, enjoying nature, or fishing off the walkway into the sea. Think about what the Wellington officials were trying to do here - they were literally fencing off the sea. When you fence off the sea, do you not think that you are going just a little bit too far?

Temple Bar has been named as the third worst tourist trap in the world – only behind Fisherman's Wharf in the US, and Las Ramblas in Barcelona in Spain.And, while many will complain at how expensive the likes of Temple Bar is, are tourist traps just part of a thriving city?Joining Kieran to discuss is Elaine Cobbe, CBS Correspondent in Paris and Ana Rosa Butler, Writer based in Spain.

San Francisco, enclavada en la costa oeste de EE. UU., es una ciudad que cautiva desde el primer momento. Como turista español, sorprende su aire europeo mezclado con un dinamismo vibrante y multicultural. El famoso Golden Gate emerge entre la niebla como un símbolo majestuoso, mientras los tranvías suben y bajan las empinadas calles con un encanto nostálgico. Barrios como Chinatown o el Mission District ofrecen una mezcla de culturas, sabores y arte urbano. Alcatraz impresiona por su historia, y el ambiente relajado de lugares como Fisherman’s Wharf invita a pasear sin prisa. San Francisco es diversa, abierta y llena de contrastes: una ciudad que se vive y se recuerda.

In this company update, we welcome back Brett Heath, CEO of Metalla Royalty & Streaming (TSX.V:MTA & NYSE:MTA), for a comprehensive discussion on the company's growth trajectory, asset updates, and strategic financing moves. Key Highlights: Revenue growth accelerating: Metalla expects ~$12M USD in 2025 revenue (~4,000 GEOs), with a path toward $50–75M annually by decade's end - without new acquisitions. New producing assets: Toktenzino and La Guitarra came online on time and on budget in late 2024. Endeavor Mine (Australia) began commercial production; expected to be Metalla's largest cash-flowing asset by 2026. Flagship growth catalyst: The Côté-Gosselin royalty, validated by Franco-Nevada's $1B+ acquisition, could become a tier-one cornerstone asset for Metalla. Long-term upside: Development-stage assets like Copper World, Wharf, and Amalgamated Kirkland add multi-decade exposure and potential cash flow. Capital to scale: A new $75M USD credit facility (announced June 25) allows Metalla to pursue larger, accretive, non-dilutive acquisitions. Brett also emphasizes what sets Metalla apart from other royalty companies: Clean, high-quality portfolio with long-life assets Top-tier counterparties (majors and mid-tiers) Multi-decade reserve life across key royalties Metalla's 2025 Asset Handbook is now available on their website.

Living Local: Spotlight on Plymouth, MA — A Town Steeped in History and Full of Heart At Boston Connect Real Estate, we believe that real estate is more than just buying and selling homes—it's about finding a lifestyle, a community, and a place to call home. That's why our Talk Real Estate Roundtable often features our “Living Local” series, where we highlight the unique towns south of Boston. In our latest episode, hosts Melissa Wallace and Kristen Howlett turned their focus to one of Massachusetts' most iconic coastal towns: Plymouth. America's Hometown—Past and Present Often referred to as "America's Hometown," Plymouth holds a storied place in American history. Founded in 1620 by the Mayflower Pilgrims, it's one of the oldest municipalities in the United States and was the site of the first Thanksgiving feast. It served as the capital of Plymouth Colony until 1691 and was originally home to the Wampanoag village of Patuxet. Today, Plymouth remains a vibrant community where history and modern living blend seamlessly. From the famed Plymouth Rock to the beautifully restored Mayflower II and historic homes, the town offers a unique window into our nation's beginnings. Geography That Inspires Plymouth is massive in terms of land area—spanning over 96 square miles of land and 134 square miles including water. It encompasses various neighborhoods and geographical sections like Cedarville, Manomet, and Plymouth Center. Its coastline stretches along Cape Cod Bay and features nine public beaches, with Plymouth Beach being the largest and most ecologically significant. Outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy the town's numerous ponds, forested areas, and conservation lands. Miles Standish State Forest and Camp Cachalot offer camping, hiking, and exploration right in your backyard. A Culinary Destination One of the most-loved aspects of Plymouth, according to listener feedback, is its dining scene. From seafood shacks to upscale restaurants, there's something for everyone. Kristen and Melissa shared local favorites, including spots like the Pillory Pub, Tavern on the Wharf, and many more that offer everything from casual bites to waterfront views and live acoustic music. Whether it's a cozy brunch or a night out, Plymouth has a restaurant for every occasion—and the best part is, you can often get a table without a reservation! Community and Lifestyle For those considering a move, Plymouth offers more than just historical charm and natural beauty. It's a place where you can feel connected. Kristen noted that many clients—especially those looking to downsize—are drawn to Plymouth for its relaxed coastal lifestyle, sense of community, and access to amenities. Plymouth offers a variety of housing options, from historic homes to new construction, making it appealing to everyone from first-time homebuyers to retirees. Real Estate With Heart At Boston Connect Real Estate, we're not just helping clients buy and sell homes—we're helping them find where they truly belong.

Bobby returns to the podcast after a month-long hiatus with a delightful chaos of stories from life on the road. Recorded outdoors in Bakersfield, California—a city where "everything's on fire" and the famous nu-metal band Korn (with that backward "R") originated—this episode captures the beautiful mayhem of a comedian's touring life.From waking up in panic not knowing which city he's in, to the surprising contentment that comes with being "literally homeless and having the time of my life," Bobby shares a refreshingly honest perspective on choosing adventure over conventional adulthood. The contrast between friends with mortgages and his nomadic existence creates a fascinating exploration of different paths to happiness.The episode weaves through recent adventures in Cleveland (where the clubs are getting too loud for his advancing age), beach trips with friends, and the peculiar experience of being complimented by strangers simply for walking with "babes." Bobby's stream-of-consciousness style leads to hilarious tangents about microphones that have seen better days, the geography of Batman's Gotham City, and the puzzling invention of Pokéballs.Looking forward, Bobby announces his upcoming headline show in St. Louis on June 20th, his plans to see Story of the Year perform, and his first-ever international trip to Canada—where he'll ironically be celebrating the 4th of July. His genuine excitement about these experiences reminds us that sometimes the most fulfilling life isn't found in stability, but in embracing the unknown.Subscribe, share with friends, and catch Bobby's headline show at St. Louis Helium Comedy Club on June 20th!

On his mom's side, Woody LaBounty's San Francisco roots go back to 1850. In Part 1, get to know Woody, who, today, is the president and CEO of SF Heritage. But he's so, so much more than that. He begins by tracing his lineage back to the early days of the Gold Rush. His maternal great-great-great-grandfather arrived here mid-Nineteenth Century. Woody even knows what ship he was on and the exact day that it arrived in the recently christened city of San Francisco. On Woody's dad's side, the roots are about 100 years younger than that. His father grew up in Fort Worth, Texas (like I did). His dad's mom was single and fell on hard times in Texas. She came to San Francisco, where she had a step-brother. Woody's parents met at the Donut Bowl at 10th Avenue and Geary Boulevard (where Boudin Bakery is today). Donut Bowl was a combination donut shop/hot dog joint. At the time the two met, his dad worked as a cook there and his mom was in high school. His mom and her friends went to nearby Washington High and would hang out at the donut shop after school. The next year or so, his parents had their first kid—Woody. They came from different sides of the track, as it were. Woody's mom's family wasn't crazy about her dating his working-class dad, who didn't finish high school. But once his mom became pregnant with Woody, everything changed. The couple had two more sons after Woody. One of his brothers played for the 49ers in the Nineties and lives in Oregon today. His other brother works with underserved high school kids in New Jersey, helping them get into college. Woody shares some impressions of his first 10 years or so of life by describing The City in the mid-Seventies. Yes, kids played in the streets and rode Muni to Candlestick Park and The Tenderloin to go bowling. It was also the era of Patty Hearst and the SLA, Jonestown, and the Moscone/Milk murders. But for 10-year-old Woody, it was home. It felt safe, like a village. Because I'm a dork, I ask Woody to share his memories of when Star Wars came out. Obliging me, he goes on a sidebar about how the cinematic phenomenon came into his world in San Francisco. He did, in fact, see Star Wars in its first run at the Coronet. He attended Sacred Heart on Cathedral Hill when it was an all-boys high school. He grew up Catholic, although you didn't have to be to go to one of SF's three Catholic boys' high schools. Woody describes, in broad terms, the types of families that sent their boys to the three schools. Sacred Heart was generally for kids of working-class folks. After school, if they didn't take Muni back home to the Richmond District, Woody and his friends might head over to Fisherman's Wharf to play early era video games. Or, most likely, they'd head over to any number of high schools to talk to girls. Because parental supervision was lacking, let's say, Woody and his buddies also frequently went to several 18+ and 21+ spots. The I-Beam in the Haight, The Triangle in the Marina, The Pierce Street Annex, Enrico's in North Beach, Mabuhay Gardens. There, he saw bands like The Tubes and The Dead Kennedy's, although punk wasn't really his thing. Woody was more into jazz, RnB, and late-disco. We chat a little about café culture in San Francisco, something that didn't really exist until the Eighties. To this day, Woody still spends his Friday mornings at Simple Pleasures Cafe. And we end Part 1 with Woody's brief time at UC Berkeley (one year) and the real reason he even bothered to try college. Check back next week for Part 2 with Woody LaBounty. And this Thursday, look for a bonus episode all about We Players and their upcoming production of Macbeth at Fort Point. We recorded this episode in Mountain Lake Park in March 2025.

The Santa Cruz municipal wharf closes for emergency water main repairs. And, Vistra Corp is facing four lawsuits and $400 million in losses after the Moss Landing battery facility fire.

Drew Phillips opened the doors of Four Phantoms in Greenfield, Massachusetts in 2021. He began his fermentation career in the Pacific Northwest, and while waiting to open his own brewery, he took on the role as cider maker at Artifact Cider Project. Drew Phillips Known for his creative ciders and beers, Drew blends tradition with innovation, sourcing local fruit and experimenting with wild fermentation. Check out his talk on the making of Old Gods . In this episode, Drew shares how Four Phantoms' unique approach reflects the terroir of Western Massachusetts. Early Challenges of a Brewery/Cidery: Gaining a License Drew initially couldn't produce cider legally due to licensing restrictions in Massachusetts. After securing a farmer winery license, he started making cider alongside beer and mead. All ciders are crafted from Pine Hill fruit in Colrain, Massachusetts. Signature Ciders and Fermentation Techniques Late Harvest – 6.5% Apples (Spy, Golden Russet and Baldwin) Tamlane – 6% 100% Macintosh apples, aged on black birch wood, giving it a herbal, German liqueur note. Redfield – 7.7% 100% Redfield apples – A red-fleshed apple cider with natural acidity and structure. Chapin's Waltz – 8.5% A blend of Golden Russet, Baldwin, and Northern Spy, co-fermented with low intervention. King of the Wharf – 7.5% A Mac-based cider aged on rum-soaked oak chips, giving it a smooth, warming finish. Old Gods – 8% Inspired by Finnish farmhouse brewing, fermented on black birch. Listen to Episode 345 on how Old Gods a Co-Fermentation of Wort and Apple Juice was made! Ciders Tasted during this chat Low Intervention and Sense of Place Drew emphasizes low-intervention cider making — no back-sweetening, minimal sulfites, and natural wild cultures. The ciders reflect the unique qualities of Western Massachusetts apples and local wood aging. Poly tanks and oak aging contribute to the distinctive flavors and textures. Community and the Future of Four Phantoms Four Phantoms Tasting Area by the production room Drew values the connection between local agriculture and cider. He sees cider's future as more craft-focused than beer, with room for independent voices. “Cider resists commercialization,” says Drew. “It's about sense of place.” Contact Info for Four Phantoms Website: https://fourphantoms.net Mentions in this Cider Chat Totally Cider Tours Cider Route Itinerary send a request to Cider Chat Cider Rap Song – by Robert Sherman of EsoTerra Ciderworks in Durango, Colorado

I. Ocean furrows II. The liquid skin of story  III. Island protecting waves "What are the living sonic expressions inherited from our ancestors? This question came to me when I read the definition of ‘intangible cultural heritage' on the UNESCO website. The field recording I chose from the Fisherman's Wharf in Santa Cruz in the Galapagos Islands, is, in the words of Josué Jaramillo, ‘a unique polyphony, where work, culture and wildlife converge in an imperfect but very human harmony'. Listening to the recording, I was mesmerised by the sound of the ‘knives sliding on whetstones', as well as the daily conversations and the flowing of sounds into each other. Watching videos of the wharf online, I was transfixed by the seabirds, iguanas and sea lions that waited patiently for -or simply took- their fair share of the fish meat.  "Researching Ecuadorian folk music, I came across ‘Taita Quishpe', a song about the love felt by an indigenous agriculturalist towards their ‘chakrita', the small plot of land which provides for them and soothes them like the sound of the ‘rondador', the national instrument of Ecuador. I thought of the ocean around the Galapagos Islands as one giant chakrita, and the very particular relationship islanders have with the sea, its deep and shifting waters.  "This provoked me to explore my own heritage as a British-Greek person. The first thing that came to my mind was the Odyssey, the epic rhapsody of the eponymous hero's perilous journey of return. Thinking about the waters of heritage and story, I was reminded of the evasive figure of Proteus, the shapeshifting old man of the sea, transforming himself into ‘a lion, a serpent, a leopard, a boar, rushing water, a mighty tree'. I felt that across the ages this is also what stories do.  "The next thing that came to mind was the Met Office's shipping forecast, that spell-like, reliable, life-saving transmission. This spell led to thinking about other spells, about the fate of ancient traditions that were lost, only to be remade in modern form, such as the animistic traditions of Druidry and its flowing spirit of inspiration, or Awen.  "The soundscape hopefully evokes something of this imaginative journey, taking the original field recording itself as a point of departure. My idea has been to dissolve boundaries, to express the movement of waves and to allow for the invisible radiophonic liquidity that we are all part of to emerge; it seems to me that both through tangible and intangible waters, all our different islands might be connected, and perhaps that sonic currents of our heritage are always travelling to shores much further than we think." Sounds:  Ocean furrows:  • Extracts from the original field recording (unedited and edited)  • Sample from ‘Taita Quishpe', Gloria Haro y conjunto folklorico, from ‘El Canto dela Raza', 1969  The liquid skin of story:  • Extract from ‘The Odyssey', Rhapsody 4, Homer, read in Modern Greek by Veroniki Krikoni and in Spanish by Christos Siorikis  • Field recording at Parkland Walk, London.

Imagine a sound canvas where tradition, life and nature are intertwined in a vibrant auditory tapestry. The Fisherman's Wharf in Santa Cruz, Galapagos, is an everyday symphony. The air is filled with the metallic echo of knives sliding on whetstones, a prelude to the dance that follows. The precise sound of the knife cutting the fish meat is mixed with the soft splash of the water that cleans the pieces, creating a rhythmic percussion. The voices, warm and resonant, weave conversations that talk about work, family, and island life. They are spontaneous songs, laughter that escapes, the constant murmur of the community. And in this concert, nature also has its part: the guttural call of the sea lions, eager for their share of the loot, is contrasted with the strident squawking of the pelicans, fighting for a bite. It is a unique polyphony, where work, culture and wildlife converge in an imperfect but deeply human harmony.  This soundscape is a time capsule, an invaluable record of daily life in the Galapagos Islands. It invites reflection on the relationship between humans and nature, the importance of traditions and the richness of local culture.

We're heading to the beachside town of Ohope now, to catch up with a Kiwi-Fijian chef who's recently put down roots there. Paul Patterson has had a hand in opening dozens of restaurants overseas and had a colourful career before that as an auto engineer, a drain layer, and a security guard to name a few. But it was the food business back in Aotearoa that he wanted to land in, and after some trial and error, he's opened a harbourside restaurant. Six months in, bookings at The Fisherman's Wharf are steady and Paul has become known for fishing out of the window. Jesse catches up with Paul to see how it's going and how his life is post-Bachelorette

There's been heated discussion online this week about the municipal wharf in Annapolis Royal, after the town closed it to commercial fishing vessels. Pauline Dakin talks to a local councilor who's been trying to diffuse the situation.

David Waldman counts down the days until our national apocalypse, yet with so many tied down the backstretch, this race is a tough call! For supposed “auditors”, nothing about DOGE adds up. Monday, Elon gave federal workers until three to… Uhm, today Elon gave federal workers until three to… Tomorrow, Elon will give federal workers until three to… Trump could barely get a semi-fired up today, as his EO has ED. Musk was able to cut 20 DOGE staff today who couldn't look themselves in the mirror anymore. Meanwhile, “fired” staffers keep finding themselves “unfired”. Those who did send in responses will have the answers fed into AI and anyone determined to be funnier than Musk will be dismissed immediately… (Those people would also be expected to be more liberal, naturally.) DOGE's dealings are illegal and even unconstitutional, but now the challenge is determining who is DOGE's head douche. Trump is so opposed to leaving a paper trail that he skips on chances to cover his own ass. DOGE was designed to attack liberals, but it terrifies the ever-loving crap out of Democrats, which was “Job One” for Donald K. Trump. Donald can now leave the Lib cleanup operation to Don Bongino and Don Jr.'s “hunting buddy” who will instruct the FDA to move infant formula by the kilo from this point on. With the US out of the way it is now time to Make Axis Great Again for our new conquest over our old allies. With such colossal corruption, who's to notice the little stuff, like a Florida congressman assaulting women at night along the Wharf? At least that's what the U.S. Attorney's Office thought when they tossed his warrant into the trash.

One cluster of them sits just south of the Mall on Independence Avenue and stretches down towards the Wharf. To DC planners, it could be a whole new neighborhood in a choice location. The Washington Post's Aaron Wiener has been covering the story and is here to explain. Want some more DC news? Then make sure to sign up for our morning newsletter Hey DC.

One set of Barbara Gratta's grandparents came to the US from Calabria, the toe of the boot of Italy. The other grandparents came from across the Italian peninsula—Bari. In this episode, meet Barbara. Today, she owns, operates, and makes wine at Gratta Wines in the Bayview. But her journey began in White Plains, NY. All four grandparents came to Brooklyn in the 1920s. They all eventually moved north to raise families away from the bustle of New York City. Barbara's grandparents were a big part of her early life, the extended families getting together often for "big Italian Sunday dinners" (yum!). These involved aunts, uncles, and cousins as well as the older generation. Barbara and her immediate family lived upstairs from her aunt, uncle, and cousins. Because of this set-up, she says it was more like one big family. And every week culminated on Sundays, with as many as 30 people coming in and out of these get-togethers. The sauce was on the stove starting early in the morning. And if more people came, it simply meant more pasta. If, like me, you're thinking of the "Fishes" episode of The Bear, you're not far off. Saturdays were spent going "up the street," which meant shopping at places like Sears or Macy's. Maybe they'd stop at White Plains Diner for lunch. But they always ended up back at her grandmother's house for cake and coffee. Her mom's youngest brother went to school with Barbara's dad's youngest sister. They came from different towns, but all ran in the same circles. And thanks to this, as well as a tight-knit Italian-American community in the area, her parents met. They got married in 1958 and had their first kid, a son, in 1959. Then Barbara was born in 1960. ​The family is Catholic, but that manifested more in traditions than any religious sense. They went to church on big holidays, and Barbara shares a story about her grandmother giving her money for the Easter Sunday collection. But she and her cousins pocketed the money and spent the service on the church roof. After she was confirmed, around eighth grade, her parents gave her the choice whether to keep going or not. Barbara chose to hang up her career with Catholicism at that point. By the time Barbara was in high school, her immediate family moved to Florida, in the Sarasota area. She says it was a hard time for her, being torn from all the people and places she knew. There wasn't a lot of Italian culture in her new home. Her mom searched for ingredients to make the food she was accustomed to. She spotted a sausage truck one day and followed it. Only through this was she able to maintain some semblance of her cultural past. Barbara stuck around after high school down in Florida. She got a degree in physical therapy and worked for about 10 years on the west coast of the state. Still, neither she nor her two brothers (one older, one younger) loved it there. Barbara left Florida around 1989 or 1990 for California. Her first visit, before she moved to San Francisco, was a vacation with a coworker in the mid-Eighties. They stayed in a hotel on Van Ness near The Bay. They did what tourists do—Fisherman's Wharf, drive over the Golden Gate Bridge, that sort of thing—and didn't travel to any SF neighborhoods. The visit involved a quick drive down to Monterey to see a former coworker of theirs. The entire trip left her wanting to visit again someday. When the time came to move here, her job set her up with a place to live for a few months. Barbara kept renewing these contracts every three months. She started in the southwest corner of The City, within walking distance of Joe's of Westlake in Daly City. We end Part 1 with stories of Barbara's early friends in SF showing her around The City. Check back next week for Part 2 and the conclusion of my episode with Barbara Gratta. We recorded this podcast at Gratta Wines in the Bayview in December 2024. Photography by Dan Hernandez

In today's newscast, Monterey County has launched a public education campaign to inform residents of their Constitutional rights regardless of immigration status. In Santa Cruz, the city council approved a recovery package for the wharf that includes free 2-hour parking for visitors, partial rent relief for affected businesses, and debit gift cards for some wharf employees.

Is it a Wharf or a pier? Santa Cruz doesn't follow Google's guidlines on this. Nikki Glaser does alright at the Golden Globes. and Dan out Man's Jeremy in the Diet department.
