Support my work on Patreon- https://patreon.com/realdavejackson Discord, Socials and more- https://linktr.ee/talesfromthebacklog Ghost of Tsushima (2020) was one of my favorite games of that year, and happens to be episode 2(!!) of this podcast, an early game that screamed to me "you should talk about this into a microphone for 2+ hours). That being the case, Sucker Punch's follow-up, Ghost of Yotei, was an instant day-one buy. And while the things I expected to impress were great, there were certain aspects of the game that felt worse to me than Tsushima's version. Did I change over the past five years? Did the game adjust to industry trends? A secret third answer? All of this is part of the discussion, so I hope you enjoy it!

Fluent Fiction - Norwegian: Frozen Secrets: Discovering Truths in Svalbard's Wilds Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/no/episode/2026-02-11-23-34-02-no Story Transcript:No: Det var en dag som enhver annen i Svalbards ville tundra, men kulda beit hardere enn vanlig.En: It was a day like any other in the wild tundra of Svalbard, but the cold bit harder than usual.No: Sondre, en engasjert biolog, sto ved kanten av leiren og skuet mot den endeløse hvite horisonten.En: Sondre, an enthusiastic biologist, stood at the edge of the camp, gazing towards the endless white horizon.No: Han kunne nesten kjenne vinden hviske om hemmeligheter som tundraen hadde begravet dypt.En: He could almost feel the wind whispering secrets buried deep by the tundra.No: Ved siden av ham var Ingrid, en geolog med et skarpt blikk for detaljer.En: Beside him was Ingrid, a geologist with a keen eye for detail.No: Hun hadde alltid følt en lengsel etter å bevise seg selv.En: She had always felt a longing to prove herself.No: Nå var øyeblikket hennes, om enn med en tung følelse av tvil hengende over henne.En: Now was her moment, though with a heavy feeling of doubt hanging over her.No: En av deres kolleger, en erfaren forsker, hadde plutselig forsvunnet.En: One of their colleagues, an experienced researcher, had suddenly disappeared.No: Kaoset som oppsto etter hans forsvinning, truet med å knuse teamets moral.En: The chaos that ensued after his disappearance threatened to crush the team's morale.No: "Vi må finne ut hva som skjedde," sa Sondre bestemt.En: "We have to find out what happened," said Sondre resolutely.No: "Jeg kan ikke la dette gå.En: "I can't let this go.No: Det kan være min sjanse til å virkelig gjøre en forskjell.En: It might be my chance to really make a difference."No: "Ingrid nikket, betenkt.En: Ingrid nodded, thoughtful.No: Hun visste det var risikabelt, men hun forstod også viktigheten av oppgaven.En: She knew it was risky, but she also understood the importance of the task.No: Sammen med et lite team satte de av gårde, væpnet med kart, kompass og et vektig ønske om å forstå.En: Together with a small team, they set off, armed with maps, a compass, and a strong desire to understand.No: De beveget seg dypere inn i tundraen.En: They moved deeper into the tundra.No: Vinden skar som et kaldt knivblad, og snøen skapte en kvelende stillhet rundt dem.En: The wind cut like a cold knife blade, and the snow created a suffocating silence around them.No: Jo lenger de gikk, desto mer sikkert følte Sondre seg på at teamet trengte hans ledelse.En: The further they went, the more certain Sondre felt that the team needed his leadership.No: Ingrid, på sin side, kjente en ny styrke blomstre i henne.En: Ingrid, on her part, felt a new strength blossoming within her.No: Usikkerheten bleknet for hver beslutsom skritt hun tok.En: The uncertainty faded with each determined step she took.No: Plutselig, i ly for en liten høyde, avdekket de en forlatt leir.En: Suddenly, sheltered behind a small hill, they uncovered an abandoned camp.No: Det var et uhyggelig syn: telt som bleket under snøens vekt, personlige eiendeler strødd rundt.En: It was an eerie sight: tents bleached under the weight of the snow, personal belongings scattered around.No: Og det mest alarmerende var tegnene på kamp, som om det hadde vært en heksejakt i den strie kulda.En: And most alarming were the signs of struggle, as if there had been a witch hunt in the fierce cold.No: "Dette var ikke en ulykke," utbrøt Sondre, mens han gransket stedet.En: "This wasn't an accident," exclaimed Sondre, as he examined the site.No: "Noe er fryktelig galt her.En: "Something is terribly wrong here."No: "Ingrid bøyde seg ned og fant et kompass, det pekte mot en retning de ikke hadde vurdert.En: Ingrid bent down and found a compass, pointing in a direction they hadn't considered.No: "Vi må fortsette," sa hun med nyvunnet mot.En: "We must continue," she said with newfound courage.No: Etter timer med kamp gjennom snøstormer, kom de over enda en leir.En: After hours of battling through snowstorms, they came across yet another camp.No: Der fant de den savnede kollegaen – kjølig, men i live, fanget av snødrev og misforståelser innen teamet.En: There they found the missing colleague—cold, but alive, trapped by snowdrift and misunderstandings within the team.No: Det viste seg at misnøye blant lagmedlemmene hadde ført til sabotasje, et usjarmerende spill som overskygget ekte vitenskapelig arbeid.En: It turned out that dissatisfaction among team members had led to sabotage, a distasteful game that overshadowed genuine scientific work.No: Da de vendte tilbake til leiren, slått, men seirende, var stemningen en annen.En: As they returned to camp, battered but victorious, the atmosphere was different.No: Mistankene ble løftet, og teamet begynte å helbredes.En: Suspicions were lifted, and the team began to heal.No: Sondres innsats gjorde at han endelig fikk anerkjennelsen han fortjente.En: Sondre's efforts finally earned him the recognition he deserved.No: Han hadde vist sin styrke og stått som en leder.En: He had shown his strength and stood as a leader.No: Ingrid oppdaget i seg selv en ukuelig vilje til å stå imot både elementene og sine egne indre kamper.En: Ingrid discovered within herself an indomitable will to withstand both the elements and her own inner struggles.No: Hun ble en uunnværlig del av laget, en ny stjerne som lyste klart mot tundraens barske bakteppe.En: She became an indispensable part of the team, a new star shining brightly against the harsh backdrop of the tundra.No: Og slik, i denne forlokkende, men farlige vinterverdnen av Svalbard, fant Sondre og Ingrid ikke bare sannheten om forsvinningen, men også om seg selv.En: And so, in this alluring yet dangerous winter world of Svalbard, Sondre and Ingrid found not only the truth about the disappearance but also about themselves.No: Den arktiske natten var lang og kald, men deres mot lyste som en ledestjerne over det endeløse snølandskapet.En: The Arctic night was long and cold, but their courage shone like a guiding star over the endless snow landscape.

Manresa Wilds, formerly known as Manresa Island, is set to become a publicly accessible park that reconnects the community to nearly two miles of Long Island Sound coastline for the first time in nearly 75 years. Recently, the Manresa Island Corporation teamed up with the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute (WHOI) to install a waterfront sensor project. We learned all about this latest project and got an update on what happens next.For more information: https://www.manresawilds.org/

Active adventures: Morocco has it all—deserts, mountains (hello, Mount Toubkal at 13,000 ft!), and coastlines. Plan your itinerary wisely; sometimes it's better to split north and south. Culture-mixing made easy: Embrace cooking classes, tasting tours, and local market strolls for a real taste of Morocco. Pacing matters: Avoid jam-packed schedules. Leave room for spontaneous moments and downtime! Best Time to Visit Spring (March to June) and Fall (September to November) are ideal for outdoor adventure—pleasant weather, fewer crowds. Cultural Tips Be mindful in rural areas: Ask before taking photos, avoid handshakes with women unless invited, and consider wearing local clothing to blend in and connect. Morocco's diversity means you'll rarely feel out of place; just come with openness and respect. Food to Try: Don't miss the roasted chicken with preserved lemon and green olives—Azzedine's favorite after a long day out! Safety & Language Morocco is safe, welcoming, and multilingual.

Leading up to the Great Florida Cattle Drive 2026, we're looking back at some of Florida's earliest settlers, the cattle drives they made, how they registered cattle ear marks and brands at the county courthouse, and some of the battles they fought for survival in Florida's unforgiving wild places. From the early 1800's through to the 1940's, we take you on a journey through time as seen through the eyes of those who lived it every day.

Nerd & Tie is excited to announce the beginning of the third campaign for Stormwood & Associates! Trae, Becca, Gen, and Celeste are back at the table for a new adventure, and starting Friday, January 16th episodes will release here weekly on Nerd & Tie. For the third adventure in this ongoing series, we now find ourselves in the Fae Wilds with aftermath of the second campaign. Fifty years after Galfus has been overthrown (but only a few years later in “our” world), Eloise, the black sheep of her family, has made her way to the Wilds to open a new office of Stormwood & Associates in the neutral city of Denarsus, outside of the control of the Fae Courts. While she’s determined to prove herself, she may just be in over her head – as they call them “The Wilds” for a reason. “Stormwood & Associates” uses the RPG system Super Awesome Action Heroes Second Edition with the optional Fantasy expansion and Advanced Combat Rules.

In this lively and unfiltered gathering, Dr. Fiona Lovely is joined by her beloved "Meno Besties," hormone specialist Karen Martel and longevity expert Zora Benhamou. This is a candid conversation between three leading voices who've been in the menopause advocacy space long before it was trending. They tackle the frustrating realities women still face, from doctors dismissing requests for hormone testing to the enduring stigma around the word "menopause" itself. The discussion delves into the critical need for education and self-advocacy, emphasizing that despite increased awareness, a shockingly low percentage of women are actually on hormone therapy. Fiona, Karen, and Zora break down the early, subtle signs of perimenopause that often go unrecognized and explain the rollercoaster of "wonky periods." They also provide crucial insights into the practicalities of hormone therapy, addressing why some women don't feel better initially, the importance of dosage adjustments, and why partnering closely with your prescriber is non-negotiable. The conversation takes a fascinating turn into how past trauma and nervous system health may influence one's response to HRT, highlighting the profound mind-body connection during this transition. This episode is a masterclass in navigating midlife health with clarity, humor, and the supportive solidarity of friends who truly get it.

("One Fifty Two") Ted celebrates Mosaic Day by breaking free from the "walled garden" of light sport aviation and "soloing" both a purple lightning-bolt Cessna 152 and a 172. As our friend Dominic eloquently writes, sport pilots are now "loose upon the natural wilds of general aviation," discovering that some planes "require you to hold the yoke one-third to the right just to fly straight and level. It's a feature." Ted's conclusion: "I buttered almost every landing...they're so easy to land compared to the egg." The bad news? He keeps forgetting carb heat exists.Ben logs his "maybe second best landing ever" (wife-verified!) at the Gainesville fly-in and surprises her with a short field takeoff. Brian gets Nashville Approach's fastest "stay outta the Class Charlie" dismissal ever, attends a stellar Commemorative Air Force hangar dance, and reminds us that filing IFR doesn't guarantee instant gratification when controllers are slammed.The crew tackles listener feedback from newly-minted MOSAIC pilots navigating "airframe chaos" (G1000s, steam gauges, and seats "smushed flat" so you "can hardly see over the firewall"), motion sickness solutions featuring Chick-fil-A minis and relief bands, and why even Bob Hoover dealt with air sickness. Plus community shoutouts including a 60-year-old nailing his commercial checkride with a power-off 180 in 15-gusting-25, and Xyla Foxlin getting her plane back after losing her medical.Mentioned on the show:ABY - Albany Ga: https://www.airnav.com/airport/ABYGVL - Gainesville Ga: https://www.airnav.com/airport/GVLFlySto: https://www.flysto.net/homeM93 Southernaire: https://www.airnav.com/airport/M93M54 Lebanon Tenn: https://www.airnav.com/airport/M54Ted's "soloing a 150" video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmXyFeK09ngCheckmate Aviation: https://www.checkmateaviation.com/myaeroglass: https://www.myaeroglass.com/Xyla Foxlin lost her medical: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aj0H8oVS7qgXyla got her plane back!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eu-T7P3o6tUJoin the Midlife Pilot Podcast community, support the show on Patreon, and get merch at www.midlifepilotpodcast.com

Late one night in rural Iowa, a driver on a routine trip found himself stalked by strange lights that morphed into otherworldly shapes and seemed to close in on his car. In this eerie episode we explore how a simple journey turned into a night of fear as luminous orbs and towering figures appeared out of the darkness, hinting at something far beyond ordinary understanding. We talk about the unsettling dangers of UFO encounters, the unnerving sense of being pursued by something unknown, and what such incidents might reveal about forces that can reach into our world without warning. Then for our Plus+ Members we journey into the mist covered Pyrenees and follow hidden Cathar trails, encounter eerie hooded figures, phantom plasma hands and castles that glow with an unearthly light.

Send us a textImagine a world where walking out the door inspires adventure and a love of nature, from tiny bugs on the sidewalk to giant redwoods standing sentinel. Could it be that these adventures can inspire systemic change? On Episode 152 of the Adventures in Learning podcast, author Meg Fleming chats with Dr. Diane about the power of sparking wonder, curiosity, and connection to the natural world.Known for weaving musicality with storytelling, Meg is the author of such books as I Heart You, Sometimes Rain, Sounds Like School Spirit, Rock That Vote, Wondering Around, and I Live in a Tree Trunk. Her latest book, The Everything Trail is a lyrical nature inspired narrative that captures the ability of kids to transform simple hikes and outings into major adventures of discovery (and the illustrations by Chuck Groenink elevate the reader into the redwood forest).This week, Meg and I are traveling with CBCC (Children's Book Creators for Conservation). Meg shares some of her transformative experiences from her first trip to South Africa with Wild Tomorrow, highlighting the profound connection between humanity, habitats, and wildlife. We invite you to join us on our adventure! If you have any questions about the wildlife, conservation efforts, or community connections, please leave them in the comments. We'll do our best to answer them or find answers while we're there. Timestamps01:09 - Writing Lyrical Children's Books, The Adventures in Learning of Author Meg Fleming04:49 - Nature's Wonder: The Inspiration Behind The Everything Trail09:59 - Connecting to nature in big and small ways for engaged learning14:10 - Using school visits to spark curiosity, wonder, and connection to the planet16:21 - Conservation, Connection, and Returning to South Africa with CBCC and Wild Tomorrow0:34:15 - Inspiring Hope Through Nature and ChildrenLinksMeg Fleming's Official WebsiteFollow Meg, Dr. Diane, and CBCC on InstagramPurchase The Everything TrailSupport the showSubscribe & Follow: Stay updated with our latest episodes and follow us on Instagram, LinkedIn, and the Adventures in Learning website.

In this episode, we sit down with Analeigh Sbrana, author of the highly anticipated romantasy sequel Lore of the Tides. Following her breakout debut Lore of the Wilds, Sbrana returns with a story full of forbidden magic, grief, identity, and longing romance that raises the stakes for both her heroine and her world. We talk with Analeigh about: Why she chose to center Lore's journey around justice instead of revenge, setting her apart in a genre that often leans into vengeance arcs. How she approached writing Lore's grief and emotional growth after the fallout of book one. The symbolism of Lore's ink-stained hands and forbidden magic, and how it ties into themes of identity and power. Crafting a romance arc filled with longing, betrayal, and trust issues—and why the emotional risks feel just as high as the magical ones. How queerness and Black identity are seamlessly woven into her worldbuilding. The larger themes of power, oppression, and resistance that resonate with our world today. Whether you're already obsessed with Analeigh's romantasy universe or discovering her books for the first time, this conversation digs deep into the heart of her storytelling and why Lore of the Tides is a must-read for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Rebecca Yarros, and epic romantasy sagas.
