Have you ever noticed how certain sounds, voices, or songs can instantaneously transport you to another world? Whether it's a track from high school or the specific creak of a childhood porch, audio has a unique "backdoor" into our deepest memories and emotions. In this episode, we explore how to tap into that same principle to radically deepen our connection to nature. While we are biologically biased to navigate the world through a visual "spotlight," we often miss the 360-degree sanctuary that sound provides. By shifting our focus from looking to listening, we move beyond simple identification and start experiencing nature as a floodlight—an immersive, restorative flood of information that lowers our stress and pulls us directly into the present moment.To explore this invisible landscape, I'm joined by my friend Sue Pelmulder, a birder and audio engineer who learned how to combine these skills and reveal a new connection to nature. Together, we set out on a 5:00 AM "field trip" for the Santa Clara Valley Bird Alliance's annual Birdathon. Using high-end recording gear, including an 18-inch parabolic dish that acts as a "zoom lens for the ears," we captured the hidden details of the California's Diablo Range. From the haunting, prehistoric calls of the Pied-billed Grebe to the singular "water glump" of a diving Western Grebe, this episode is an immersive look at how listening can reveal a world that our eyes alone would have entirely overlooked.Ultimately, this journey isn't just about professional gear or rare species; it's about the "treasure hunt" and connection to nature available right outside your front door. We discuss how you can get to know your individual neighborhood birds, and why tools like Merlin are leveling the playing field for new observers. Whether you are an experienced birder or someone looking for a "universal reset button" for a tired mind, this conversation with Sue Pelmulder will challenge you to close your eyes, open your ears, and discover nature in a new way.

The Wide Angle segment takes us across the Causeway to Paws of JB, a volunteer animal welfare initiative helping stray and abandoned animals in Johor Bahru. MoneyFM 89.3 Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen talks with Maxine Beak, Lead Volunteer, Paws of JB and Nick Wong, Paws of JB Volunteer. Unlike Singapore, where structured systems, sterilisation programmes, and regulatory support keep shelters stable, JB faces overcrowding, limited funding, weaker enforcement, and chronic medical challenges. Many shelters operate independently, relying solely on donations. Some even resort to expired medication due to lack of resources. Paws of JB supports these shelters through feeding, cleaning, medical fundraising, and cross‑border adoption efforts — bringing animals to Singapore where they have a better chance of finding a home. Volunteers like Nick and Maxine describe heart breaking scenes: dogs kept in small cages for years, animals deprived of walks, and outbreaks like distemper spreading rapidly due to overcrowding.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The photo world is filled with remarkable young and up-and-coming talents. They often don't get the visibility they deserve, so we created Next Frame—a new monthly series aiming to shine a light their way. These bite-sized episodes are equally inspired by the guests we speak with and the invaluable contributions of local creative arts programs that have played a key role in their development. We're launching this series with photographer, filmmaker, and boxing & music aficionado Josh Nass, an alumnus of Baltimore's Wide Angle Youth Media programs. From nailing his Photoshop skills while still in middle school to trading in his boxing gloves for a camera during college and beyond, Josh regales us with practical tips about both the successes and challenges all young creatives must face as they transition from trading pictures for access to molding media skills into a profitable career. Looking back on his early days chasing both music and fashion scenes, Josh notes, “Your main role as a photographer—especially with talent and famous people—you know, I thought I was just making them look cool, but I'm making them money. I'm marketing them for their next tour, for their current tour. Looking back, I've learned a thing or two about how to get users' attention online.” Guest: Josh Nass Episode Timeline: 2:04: Baltimore/DC-based photographer Josh Nass talks about first picking up a camera to fill his time after hanging up his boxing gloves. 3:40: Leveraging social media to get on stage and photograph his favorite Caribbean singer, then trading free pictures for ongoing access. 7:25: Navigating one's comfort level as an up-and-coming photographer, plus making a distinction between comfort with gear and social ease with subjects and clients. 9:08: Making pictures of cool moments, creative editing decisions to draw out the cool factor, and being first to deliver the files are all key to Josh's success. 14:02: Street hustling at New York Fashion Week to gain access to photograph top artists and celebrities, and the tough lessons Josh learned in the process. 19:06: Josh's connection to Baltimore's Wide Angle Youth Media and the formative role their programs have played in his early photography success. 22:50: Being referred by Wide Angle for a Comcast commercial, and the backstory to what transpired behind-the-scenes. 29:49: Josh weighs future career options and whether he'll choose to pursue photography full time. 35:40: Essential advice for emerging photographers: Prioritize building your skills and don't overvalue your work early on. Plus, a look at Josh's first big paid gig for a Keke Palmer concert and marketing campaign. Guest Bio: Josh Nass is a Baltimore/DC-based freelance photographer and a senior at the University of Maryland, College Park, where he's pursuing a bachelor's degree in information science. As a high school graduate of The Baltimore School for the Arts and a participant Baltimore's Wide Angle Youth Media non-profit, he's honed his subject-based style to give each of his shoots, whether its celebrities, musicians, athletes, or models, a unique “wow” factor.

HT2293 - Stitching as a Wide Angle Workaround The other day I was out photographing with a single lens, a longish zoom, and found myself in a pickle. The shot I wanted required a wide angle of view I would normally capture with a wide-angle lens. Since I didn't have one, I simply stitched a pano and accomplished a result that was close enough.

Peter Gelderloos argues that international governmental responses to the climate emergency are structurally incapable of solving the crisis. But there is hope. Across the world, grassroots networks of local communities are working to realize their visions of an alternative revolutionary response to planetary destruction, often pitted against the new megaprojects promoted by greenwashed alternative energy infrastructures and the neocolonialist, technocratic policies that are the forerunners of the Green New Deal. Gelderloos interviews food sovereignty activists in Venezuela, Indigenous communities reforesting their lands in Brazil and anarchists fighting biofuel plantations in Indonesia, looking at the battles that have cancelled airports, stopped pipelines, and helped the most marginalized to fight borders and environmental racism, to transform their cities, to win a dignified survival.

This is episode 175 - and we're back in the Cape circa 1849 and thereabouts. Before we dive into the latest incidents and events, let's take a look at what was going on globally as everything is connected. In France, citizens are able to use postage stamps for the very first time, a series called Ceres, which is also a place in the Western Cape. The Austrian Army invades Hungary entering the countries two capitals, which back in 1849 were called Buda and Pest. Next door, Romanian paramilitaries laid into Hungarian civilians, killing 600 in what we'd call ethnic cleansing. The second Anglo-Sikh war was on the go in India, and the British suffered a defeat at the Battle of Tooele, while across the ocean in Canada, the Colony of Vancouver Island was established. This is important because that's where one of my ancestors eloped later in the 19th Century for the metropolis that was Beaufort West. Elizabeth Blackwell was awarded her M.D, thus becoming the first women doctor in the United States, and the Corn Laws were officially repealed by the UK Parliament. These were tariffs and trade resctrictions on imported food — including all grains like Barley, wheat and oats. I mention this because the repeal spelled the death knell to British mercantilism — skewing the value of land in the UK, raised food prices there artificially, and hampered the growth of manufacturing. The Great Famine of Ireland between 1845 and 1852 had also revealed a real need to produce alternative food supplies through imports. It was this change that led to free trade finally being ushered into Britain — and of course this created opportunities for Southern African farmers. It's also the year the first Kennedy arrives in America, a refugee of the Irish Famine. More prosaic perhaps, in New York on a cold February day, President James Knox Polk became the first president to have his photograph taken, while Minnesota became a formal US territory and the settlement of Fort Worth in Texas is founded. In July, a slave revolt at the Charleston Workhouse breaks out led by Nicholas Kelly, but plantation owners manage to suppress the revolt and hang 3 of the leaders including Kelly. Later in September, African-American abolitionist and hero Harriet Tubman escaped from slavery. And importantly for our story, Sir Benjamin D'Urban, after whom Durban in KZN is named and one of the Governors of the Cape, died in Montreal, Canada. Back to the Cape, because the anger at Harry Smith's new policies were curing, nay, ripening, stewing, brewing amongst the amaXhosa. Arriving in the Eastern Cape, Harry was committed to reinstating the D'Urban system with which he had been associated - and which Lord Glenelg back in the colonial office has rejected. But now Earl Grey was in the colonial hot seat back home and he gave the thumbs up. Smith set to work sorting out the administration, appointing members of the settler elite to official positions including Richard Southey as his personal secretary. AS a close colleague of Grahamstown Journal Editor and rabid anti-Xhosa Robert Godlonton, he was chosen for his anti-black bias. If you remember how Smith had arrived, placing his foot on amaXhosa chief Maqoma's neck, and his new edicts including the creation of British Caffraria — the previously known ceded territory —you can imagine how he was regarded further east. What is not common knowledge these days is that there was great demand for children under the age of ten to work in the Western Cape. Of course, this was not a proper labour environment, and the shift meant that these young boys and girls, and their mothers and fathers, were being turned into indentured labourers. This was a free market situation of the amaXhosa being able to hawk their labour for a fair price. Many were told they would be paid a wage, only to find that the terms of contract were vague, they were now receiving unspecified promises and the fabric of rural life based on marriage and female

Senior US Economist Brett Ryan and Senior International Economist Peter Sidorov discuss the latest trends in bank lending and financing conditions and their implications. In the past two years, central banks on both sides of the Atlantic have delivered their sharpest hiking cycles since the 1980s. But the economic impact of these has varied widely, opening the door for less synchronous policy as central banks contemplate cutting rates.
In this Moxie by Proxy episode, we discuss the moxie of the women of Iceland through the camera lens of Pamela Hogan, Emmy award-winning filmmaker, journalist, and media executive.In her latest documentary, The Day Iceland Stood Still, Pamela and her collaborator acclaimed Icelandic filmmaker Hrafnhildur Gunnarsdóttir, take us back to October 24, 1975, and the months leading up to that historic moment when 90 percent of Iceland's women took the “day off,” bringing the country to a standstill and catapulting Iceland to the world's superpower of gender equality. The story comes to life through interviews with the unstoppable women who planned and lived that day, interwoven with playful animation and evocative archival footage. Seven years in the making, the documentary is evidence of Pamela's filmmaking moxie and her belief in a riveting story. The film's release in 2024 celebrates the 50th anniversary of that day. Pamela describes the joy, grit, and determination of a diverse group of women as they sought to change the status quo, open up career opportunities, and promote wage parity. It's a fascinating examination of compromise, unifying messaging around social change, and grassroots organization. Ultimately, it's a story of how ordinary women managed to do the extraordinary.Pamela also describes the roots of her moxie in being raised by a single mother who was deeply involved in the women's equal rights movement in the 1970s United States. She is drawn to stories of women, stories that are fascinating and often overlooked. It is like whether a tree falling in the forest with no one around makes a sound; she believes if no one tells a person's story, it doesn't exist.Pamela's body of work includes Looks Like Laury Sounds Like Laury, Women, War & Peace series and its kick-off episode, I Came to Testify, and Wide Angle series on PBS. At Wide Angle, she was the Executive Producer working with global filmmakers on 70 hours of character-driven documentaries illuminating under-reported stories. While there, she developed Ladies First, an Emmy-award-winning film about women's leadership in post-genocide Rwanda, and Time for School, a longitudinal series that followed seven children in seven countries fighting the odds for a basic education.Pamela is recognized with the National Council for Research on Women Making a Difference for Women award. She is an adjunct professor at Columbia University's Graduate School of Journalism and on the board of the International Center for Transitional Justice.This episode of Main Street Moxie is proudly sponsored by Elyse Harney Real Estate and Meadowscapes.

The wide angle lens is a thing of beauty--it's probably the most crucial piece of any photographer's gear bag. They're a must for landscape photography, but also really excellent at travel and cultural photography, and even wildlife photography if you get the right one. Plus, they give you a lot of bang for your buck and are often a beginner photographer's first entry into high quality lenses due to relative affordability. In this episode I dive into everything that makes up this category of lens, including zoom range and ideal focal lengths, aperture ratings, overall quality, focus motor, image stabilization, and even prime lenses and ultrawides.If you're thinking about upgrading or simply wanting to know more about the abilities and flexibility you have with your wide angle lens, this is a packed episode full of photography goodness.My top pick for a wide angle lens: 24-105mm f/4CanonNikonSonyOther considerationsCanon 24-70 f/2.8Sony 24-70 f/2.8Nikon 24-70 f/2.8Rokinon PageCanon Page

This episode is a story about wide-angle imaging for fire mapping and maritime search but it's also a story about changing the culture and getting people to trust a new way of doing things. My guest today is Alison Harrod - mission success manager at a start-up called Overwatch imaging Whenever I work with a company like Overwatch Imaging it is hard to know which story to tell, we could just as easily have made an episode about AI and object detection or about smart sensors because they do those things too. The decision depends on the guest and their background so after meeting Alison we decided to make this episode for you and try to give you a broad overview of what wide-angle imaging is and how it's used in the context of fire mapping and maritime search. ...but It's one thing to have a technology and it is another thing entirely to get people to use it … as you will hear fire mapping is not “a move fast and break things kind of situation” Connect with Alison here! https://www.linkedin.com/in/alisonharrod/ https://www.overwatchimaging.com/ Other relevant podcast episodes that you might enjoy Thermal Imagery From Space https://mapscaping.com/podcast/thermal-imagery-from-space/ Finding Water Leaks From Space https://mapscaping.com/podcast/finding-water-leaks-from-space/ Cube Satellites Of The Stratosphere https://mapscaping.com/podcast/cube-satellites-of-the-stratosphere/

When you begin to live your life on a wide angle lens, you start to see things differently, beyond YOU. Do the people, surroundings and mindsets around you support your growth or hinder it?
HT1596 - Seeing in Wide Angle I've always struggled with the challenge of seeing and wide-angle view. My natural vision tends to be telephoto, zooming in on details. I think I figured out why! My eyes don't zoom but in my mind I can restrict what I see to the details in the distance. Conversely, my eyes can't zoom out to see in wide-angle. I have to scan the scene and then assemble the full image in my mind's eye. That's the part where I struggle.
Ineke Mushovic, Executive Director of Wide Angle Research and Republican Rule, and Deepak Puri, CEO of The Democracy Labs, agree that candidates from the top of the ballot to the bottom can productively use strong images and provocative ads to draw in voters and drive a call to action. The Wide Angle Research approach brings video and storytelling techniques to down-ballot races and advocates looking to educate and persuade. Deepak and Ineke talk about: Use of political and advocacy ads to paint a dystopian view Need to tie issues together to make the point to voters Framing issues to tap into fear and an emotional response Using fear productively Making the argument in a concise and memorable way @TheDemLabs #WideAngleResearch #PoliticalAds #VoterPersuasion WideAngleResearch.org RepublicanRule.org TheDemLabs.org

A few kind words from his colleagues: "I had the pleasure of supervising Mr. Mosley's work as Creative Director at New Human, where I was President of the company. There was no one who could match his skill in developing & maintaining our extensive online store, generating successful landing lead pages, managing email campaigns, live webinars, custom server process programming, and online course development. I was absolutely and unequivocally pleased with his work. Most notably, Will possesses a refreshing and remarkable work ethic. He is extremely attentive to detail and quality in the code he writes and possesses tireless diligence in meeting deadlines and schedules. Will is truly a delight to work with under fast-paced deadlines and mission-critical projects." - Former New Human President, Ann Sharpsteen "I had the privilege to first meet Will about 4 years ago. From day 1 Will made me smile with his positive energy and optimistic views on life and work. He inspires me to be a better person and to see things in a more positive light, in all circumstances. Will is an amazingly dedicated husband and father, his patience is endless! What can I say, more Will makes life better.. Truly. Work: Will always meets challenges with new eyes and ideas, things I would never think of, then completes them with skill and imagination that usually goes beyond what was expected. Will's creativity was often not utilized to its full extent by management. His knowledge of social media comes with his ability to keep an open mind and a finger on the pulse of what is currently trending in this crazy world.

“When I was in Ukraine, I was speaking to a few Ukrainian intellectuals, historians and others; one made a very interesting point to me...When Putin says Zelenksy is a Nazi; in the West, we hear that [as] so ridiculous. He's Jewish; how can he possibly be a Nazi? But when he's saying that to Russians it…sends a slightly different signal…When you're Russian, Nazism, the manifestation of Nazism isn't anti-semitism so much; it's this western decadence. And so when Putin says Zelensky is a Nazi, he's saying Zelensky is the manifestation of this breed of Western decadence that we as Russians have to guard the world against.” Elliot Ackerman served as a U.S. Marine Corps officer in Iraq and Afghanistan, and later in Afghanistan as a CIA paramilitary officer. In this episode of “The Wide Angle” he offers his strategic to ground level insights on what decides who comes out on top in Ukraine. His most recent novel is the New York Times bestseller, “2034: A Novel of the Next World War.” --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

“[Xi Jinping] knows that if he were to fail, he wouldn't get a nice house in the Chinese capital. He would be jailed; he'd lose assets; his family would be disadvantaged. He could even lose his life. So, the stakes are much higher for Xi Jinping.” 2022 is the ‘make-or-break' year for General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), Xi Jinping. This is the year he will make his bid for a third term as the autocratic leader of China. This is also the year in which the fiercest sabotage attempts are likely to be made against him, from within the Party. Author and U.S.-China foreign policy analyst, Gordon Chang joins me in this episode of The Wide Angle. He reveals how the ‘pressure cooker' that CCP now represents could easily erupt in ways that extend well beyond China's shores.
“When we see the West imposing these sorts of authoritarian lockdowns, and we see them aiming to impose bio-surveillance states, this must change our perception of the world.” In this episode of “The Wide Angle,” Lee Smith poses the question: Where does ‘democracy-based' foreign policy stand in a time of dwindling democracy under Covid-19 restrictions and mandates? Lee Smith is a veteran investigative journalist who writes for both “The Epoch Times” and “The Tablet.” Historically, the alliances and partnerships between Western countries have been largely based on shared democracy. So, what happens when Western “democracies” veer drastically away from democratic principles? And when it comes to confronting the major tyrants of our times, like the Chinese Communist Party, how do the actions of “Democratic” governments really measure up? #LeeSmith #Democratic #Mask
At the time of publishing, the U.K. and Canada are the latest countries to join the diplomatic Boycott of the Beijing Winter Olympics. This comes just days after the White House's corresponding announcement. The U.S. cited persecution of Uyghur in Xinjiang as the primary reason for its action. But, are there other motives underlying its stand against the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) at this time? And why is there no mention of Peng Shuai accompanying this boycott being made in the name of human rights? What is the relationship between the U.S. boycott of the Winter Olympics and Russia's preparations to invade Ukraine? The CCP has recently leveled heavy criticism against Western democracy. Alongside this, it has announced its own brand of ‘democracy,' i.e., “Whole Process Democracy.” How does the latter stand up to a basic democracy litmus test? #WinterOlympics #PengShuai #CCP
How high does the Russia-collusion hoax rate on the scale of U.S. political scandals? Veteran journalist and author, Lee Smith, would say it tops them all. With the Watergate scandal, the American press uncovered corruption and crimes at the highest levels of government, leading to President Richard M Nixon's resignation. Fifty years on, we find the press fulfilling a much-altered purpose. Lee, author of ‘The Permanent Coup' and ‘The Plot Against the President,' joins me to explain why this event represents the darkest chapter in American politics, and the media's complicity in this. What patterns do we see emerging in U.S. media that resemble Chinese Communist Party propaganda? #CCP #LeeSmith #Dossier
This is episode 32 and we're swinging back to the Cape frontier through the last few decades of the 18th Century. I am going to thoroughly probe this period because so many crucial things were unfolding across southern Africa such as the development of new centralized powerful kingdoms in the East, the acceleration of land occupation by the trekboers and the first real clashes between the isiXhosa and settlers. That is far too much to chew on in just one episode I'm sure you'll agree. First we need to step back and take a wide-angle view of the region. By the mid-1700s the eastern Cape frontier was a vaguely defined area east of the Gamtoos river. This is where black South African's speaking a Bantu language first encountered white settlers as distinct from traders and missionaries. It was also here that policies which have had a profound influence on southern Africa were first formulated and applied. It was also a cultural frontier between warring states and had many characteristics of frontiers elsewhere across the world at that time. One of course was in north America
