Jimmy Shelly and Marty from WCTY bring you the World's Best Jokes!

Jonathan marries the United States and proves he's the greatest ally in the world. Mr. Fahrenheit shocks the announcers. The secret world of Mounties is exposed.

We tend to think of high-performance athletes as superhuman—a rare species with extraordinary strength and a preternatural ability to suffer.But if you ask today's guest what distinguishes the elite athlete and everyone else, she'll say nothing.For her, the secret to high-level performance isn't about cutting edge training plans, coaches, or carefully honed nutrition.For her, it's instead found in seeking out and celebrating the pain cave, that deep place of physical discomfort most go to great lengths to avoid.Meet Courtney Dauwalter, the world's best female ultrarunner—and when it comes to races 200 miles and longer—arguably the best period.A humble mater of grit and boundary-busting physical prowess, Courtney is universally loved and admired for her winning smile, mental fortitude and intuitive training style (she doesn't even have a coach).In addition to being named one of the 50 Fittest Athletes in the World by Sports Illustrated and a two-time Ultrarunner of the Year, among her countless accomplishments, Courtney:won the 2017 Moab 240 (including beating all the men) by an astonishing 10 hour margin;won the 2020 Big Dog Backyard Ultra by clocking 283 miles (again beating all the men);won the women's division of 2018 The Western States 100;broke the Tahoe 200 female course record in 2018 by 18+ hours; andwas the fastest female at the 2019 UTMB, considered the world's most prestigious ultraNot bad for an athlete who didn't even begin her professional running career until she was 32 years old.The thing about Courtney is that she lives in the moment. She's a doer. She doesn't overthink things. She trains on feel, eats what she wants, and does it all with joy and a laudable degree of humility and perspective. But behind it all is a very intentional human—an athlete of unparalleled mental fortitude with the drive required to test the very limits of human capability.Today we get into all of it.Courtney shares the mindset techniques and tactics that have propelled her superhuman accomplishments.She shares her perspective on career longevity. Her evolution as an athlete. How she approaches unlocking unprecedented performance. And the purpose that lives beneath it all.But if you extract anything from this conversation, may it be the importance of having fun. Why taking things lightly is strength and not a weakness.When you reframe pain as a destination rather than an obstacle, truly anything is possible.To read more click here. You can also watch our exchange on YouTube. And as always, the podcast streams wild and free on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.An athlete I've admired for many years, I aspire to Courtney's unique blend of grit and joy. Yes, she is a badass. But she's also a good sport. A better human.

Everything your friends, family, colleagues, journalists and elected representatives need to know about Earth Overshoot Day. Every other week, another scientific report is added to the stack of evidence human civilization has outgrown the planet. What are we doing about it? Earth Overshoot Day is the point in time during the year at which we've already burned through the renewable resources it takes the Earth a year to regenerate. Earth Overshoot Day in 2021 is July 29. Global Footprint Network continuously analyzes UN data and satellite imagery to estimate the planet's capacity to meet our needs (biocapacity), and humankind's footprint - or demand (ecological footprint) - on that capacity. According to their analysis, we're demanding almost twice what the planet can sustainably provide. In the U.S. and a few other nations, we're engaged in 5-planet living (U.S. Overshoot Day was March 14). Every year as Earth Overshoot Day approaches, we dedicate an episode of the GrowthBusters podcast to playing an audio documentary we produced in 2019. Welcome to Overshoot: Have a Nice Day explores overshoot's causes, effects, and possible solutions, as well as some of the barriers to solving the problem.

“I came across a job advert for a psychologist to join a matchmaking agency. I wouldn't describe myself as a spiritual person, but it just felt like my dad had sent [me] this opportunity. I had butterflies in my stomach. That was the moment that changed my life.”Are you unlucky in love? Or perhaps you're exploring a very niche entrepreneurial path, then don't miss Rachel Vida MacLynn, the founder of The Vida Consultancy, widely considered the best elite matchmaking agency in the world, on this week's Secret Leaders. “One of our biggest challenges is we don't get to keep our clients for a lifetime. We have to keep finding new clients because most of our clients only stay with us for 12 months, and they're expensive to acquire.”It's a fascinating niche - they're a matchmaking service for high net worth individuals, entrepreneurs and business people looking for long term relationships. “I've pulled more and more psychology into the service, because it's become more apparent to me that a lot of clients think they know what they want in a partner, but what they think they're looking for isn't actually right for them.”But how does elite matchmaking work? What is the business model for such a niche? What does it cost? And how did Rachel get into it in the first place?

History is filled with stories of great people stepping up in times of crisis. Presidents averting wars; soldiers leading troops away from certain death; data scientists sleeping on the office floor to launch a new webpage a few days sooner. That last one is barely a joke ? by our lights, people like today?s guest Max Roser should be viewed with similar admiration by historians of COVID-19. Links to learn more, summary and full transcript. Max runs Our World in Data, a small education nonprofit which began the pandemic with just six staff. But since last February his team has supplied essential COVID statistics to over 130 million users ? among them BBC, The Financial Times, The New York Times, the OECD, the World Bank, the IMF, Donald Trump, Tedros Adhanom, and Dr. Anthony Fauci, just to name a few. An economist at Oxford University, Max Roser founded Our World in Data as a small side project in 2011 and has led it since, including through the wild ride of 2020. In today's interview Max explains how he and his team realized that if they didn't start making COVID data accessible and easy to make sense of, it wasn't clear when anyone would. Our World in Data wasn't naturally set up to become the world's go-to source for COVID updates. Up until then their specialty had been long articles explaining century-length trends in metrics like life expectancy ? to the point that their graphing software was only set up to present yearly data. But the team eventually realized that the World Health Organization was publishing numbers that flatly contradicted themselves, most of the press was embarrassingly out of its depth, and countries were posting case data as images buried deep in their sites where nobody would find them. Even worse, nobody was reporting or compiling how many tests different countries were doing, rendering all those case figures largely meaningless. Trying to make sense of the pandemic was a time-consuming nightmare. If you were leading a national COVID response, learning what other countries were doing and whether it was working would take weeks of study - and that meant, with the walls falling in around you, it simply wasn't going to happen. Ministries of health around the world were flying blind. Disbelief ultimately turned to determination, and the Our World in Data team committed to do whatever had to be done to fix the situation. Overnight their software was quickly redesigned to handle daily data, and for the next few months Max and colleagues like Edouard Mathieu and Hannah Ritchie did little but sleep and compile COVID data. In this episode Max tells the story of how Our World in Data ran into a huge gap that never should have been there in the first place - and how they had to do it all again in December 2020 when, eleven months into the pandemic, there was nobody to compile global vaccination statistics. We also talk about: * Our World in Data's early struggles to get funding * Why government agencies are so bad at presenting data * Which agencies did a good job during the COVID pandemic (shout out to the European CDC) * How much impact Our World in Data has by helping people understand the world ? How to deal with the unreliability of development statistics ? Why research shouldn't be published as a PDF ? Why academia under-incentivises data collection ? The history of war ? And much more - Producer: Keiran Harris. Audio mastering: Ryan Kessler. Transcriptions: Sofia Davis-Fogel.

Good Morning it's Saturday June 19th, and this is The Wenatchee World's newest podcast, Slices of Wenatchee. We're excited to bring you a closer look at one of our top stories and other announcements every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.    Today - With roaring engines, blaring music and streets lined with onlookers standing shoulder-to-shoulder, the Classy Chassis Parade and Car Show made its return last week.   This episode is brought to you by Equilus Group Incorporated. Equilus Group, Inc is a Registered Investment Advisory Firm in the states of Washington, Oregon, and Idaho. Equilus Group, Inc- Building Your Financial Success. Learn more at Equilusfinancial.com. Member SIPC and FINRA.   Now our feature story...   With roaring engines, blaring music and streets lined with onlookers standing shoulder-to-shoulder, the Classy Chassis Parade and Car Show made its return last week.   The Classy Chassis is hosted the last Friday of Apple Blossom, which traditionally bridges the end of April and the beginning of May.   TJ Boteilho, who rode in the parade with his father, Larry exclaimed that they're just happy to be out, it's a blessing to come to some kind of normal.   The East Wenatchee parade, part of the Washington State Apple Blossom Festival, was canceled in 2020 because of pandemic restrictions. And organizer Trina Elmes said the number of participants was down from 369 in 2019 to a little more than 200 this year,   But to her, that's not bad considering we're dealing with Covid and a date change. In fact, the parade was organized in just one month.   They even waived participation fees this year to help draw in more cars for the parade.   TJ and Larry Boteilho rode in Larry's 1966 Ford Mustang.   The father and son share a love for classic Mustangs — TJ has a 1968 model. He bought it in 1988 and then Larry bought his the following year. Together, they restored the car: TJ was the mechanic and Larry did the body work.   Everything in the black Mustang is original with the exception of after-market air conditioning. They keep the car off the road most of the year with the exception of special events.   And Bruce Dickinson entered a silver 1937 Ford with a 410-horsepower engine. The top comes off and hydraulic lifts raise the car up and down.   Dickinson's Ford took the award for best in show.    Ultimately, just bringing residents together is what Elmes said she was hoping to accomplish by pulling the parade together.   After not having any community activities in 2020, the goal was to do something to bring everyone together so that it's clear we're stronger than Covid.   We made it through and things are starting to look up.     Next, we're excited to announce that it's been an amazing year for World's Best! This competition has never been as competitive as it was for 2021!   The competition saw more than 13,000 nominations in round 1 which made up more than 2,300 businesses, people, and places across our community.   All of you played a role in nominating your favorites. Some of the hottest categories were Customer Service, Teacher, Dinner, Lunch, Real Estate Agent, and Salon--each of which received at least 50 DIFFERENT nominated people or places.   The top 5 for all 132 categories then advanced into round 2! This is where the heat really got turned up. We saw over 115,000 votes.   And now, we couldn't be more excited to share with you our WINNERS for the 2021 World's Best 11th annual competition!   So head over to wenatcheeworld.com to check out the winners!   Before we continue, a special thanks to our friends and sponsors at Confluence Health. The team at Confluence Health is grateful for the trust the community puts in them every single day. They are diligently working to improve the health and quality of life for our friends and neighbors. They are Grateful | They are Confluence Health.  Learn more by visiting them at ConfluenceHealth.com   Next,    In the first stage of what will likely be a 15-year project, the Wenatchee Rescue Mission is beginning two years of landscape renovation. It's funded by an $8,089 grant from the Washington State Department of Natural Resources Urban and Community Forestry Program.    Main priorities for the first phase include removal of invasive species like tree-of-heaven and Siberian elm, planting of native species and slope stabilization above the bunkhouse.    In the long run, leadership and volunteers in the project plan for the site to become home to tiny homes, trails, native plants, bird-friendly landscaping and spaces for people to relax and reflect.   Currently, the mission houses about 40 men, half of its capacity. Roughly 80% of them are over 50 years old. The pandemic made operations slow down, but the mission is now opening services back up and ramping up outreach to people experiencing homelessness.   The main focus of the first phase is removing invasive species and replacing them with native ones.  Siberian elms and the tree-of-heaven pose extensive problems. Their vast root systems require the trees be treated with herbicide in order to remove them, and are home to pests like spotted lanternflies, which can attack fruit trees.   But the DNR grant is just the beginning of the project's funding. For the rest, WRM will rely on donations and volunteer efforts.    The grant will support removal of two to four large Siberian elms or tree-of-heaven, planting of 20 to 24 large trees and 10 to 20 small trees. The rest of the first phase, including removal of many more invasive trees and planting of native shrubs, will be covered by volunteer time and grant-matching money from WRM.   And while there is still much to be done before the mission can bring in the tiny homes, the goal is to see it all come to fruition in about two years. And more is in the works.    -   Before we go, some local history,  Wenatchee Valley History is brought to you by NABUR [this is pronounced just like neighbor] – your trusted neighborhood community.

The territory of his tribe extended from Waterville to White Bluffs, in the Columbia Basin. The tribe was comprised of a few hundred individuals.    In 1879, the United States set aside the Columbia Reservation for Chief Moses and his tribe. Later, the tribe agreed to cede their Columbia Basin territory, which was then opened for homesteading.    The new reservation was bordered on the east by the Okanogan River, on the south by the Columbia River, on the west by the Chelan River, Lake Chelan, and on the north by the international boundary with Canada.    But this was some distance away from the tribe's original range and the terrain was very different.   Following some disputes over the land, an agreement was reached in 1883. The government purchased the entire Columbia Reservation from the Indians. Those families were given the choice of moving to the Colville Reservation or taking allotments of one section of land each.    But just one year later the entire reservation was restored to the public domain.    Chief Moses died in 1899 on the Colville Reservation.    Thanks for listening.

Like Bourdain's “Parts Unknown”, a successful brand, say Nike, is not just about a pair of sneakers. Nike could have limited its affinity to be only with sneaker-related products, such as deodorant shoe sprays, insoles, shoe strings, … but no, Nike has no interest whatsoever in viewing itself merely for the utility value of a pair of (smelly) sneakers. Nike constantly pushes the world to associate its brand with the indomitable spirits of the world's best athletes. Nike wants to be a symbol for human aspiration, for justice, for freedom, and for humanity's passion for achieving a higher level of greatness. Other brands like Apple and Tesla do the same. The purpose of developing a brand--a successful brand--is to engage a brand's target audience to experience, to create memories and affinity with the brand. A brand is its vision, and the vision makes all the difference between Julia Child and Anthony Bourdain in presenting food and cooking, between branding Nike as sneakers instead of a symbol for human aspiration, between a computing machine rather than a brand for excellence called Apple, and between an electric car vs. humankind's free orbiting vehicle in outer space.

Mark Kalin has been one of the most influential magicians of the last three decades, bringing his amazing illusions to arenas, performing arts centers, television shows, and his own experimental theatre in Reno, Nevada, “Magic Underground.” As a young man Mark's specialty was sleight-of-hand magic, but he later enlarged his act, with Jinger Leigh, to include tigers, panthers, and sensational, split-second marvels including the largest stage illusion of all time, the vanishing of an American Airlines  jumbo jet. Working together, as Kalin and Jinger, they produced and appeared in their award-winning shows, “Carnival of Wonders”, Illusionarium” and “Before Your Very Eyes”.In addition to his onstage work, Mark has developed numerous illusions used in Broadway productions, live touring shows and Las Vegas revues.In this interview Mark opens up about his career and his ability to reinvent himself again and again.  He talks about his start in magic and how his career direction changed when he met Jinger Leigh.  He talks in depth about The Carnival Of Wonders, The Illusionists and AGT as well as offering advice on performing on stage, creating a character, developing an Illusion Act and more.Mark is a legend in the magic world and this interview is absolutely incredible.

Matt sits down with Grayl founder Travis Merrigan. Grayl makes extremely simple and highly effective water purification devices to help provide clean, safe, drinking water to people in need while helping them to cut down on their plastic use. Grayl is the perfect example of a company that exists FAR beyond its product. On the surface, their product still is a one of a kind water filtration device. It's a one-pump water bottle design and It's one of the few that actively filters out viruses as well as particulate matter and bacteria; There's something to be said about that alone. However, beyond an efficient and effective design, Grayl's bigger message is doing good, helping people, and driving to make the world a better place any way they can. When it comes to environmental awareness Grayl's ability to walk the walk is vastly more important than just ‘talking the talk'.  In this episode of ReddyYeti | Built On Passion Travis Merrigan dives into what Grayl is and is meant to be, how a company's message and actions should exist beyond their product, and how putting together the right team is everything.

In this episode, I interview Diane Rae, the CEO of Ewenique Enterprises based in Tasmania, Australia- known for its sheep-making cheese expertise and best vodka. Ewenique Enterprises is the incorporation of Grandvewe Cheeses- a farmhouse cheesery that uses sheep milk to make exceptional cheese and Hartshorn Distillery- a micro-distillery that makes vodka and gin from their own sheep whey. Diane Rae’s career didn’t start as a cheesemaker, she was a psychologist and a financial planner. She doesn’t have an idea she would fall as a cheesemaker and a famous dairy sheep breeding consultant. They started as a dairy sheep enterprise, evolved into incorporating a distillery, and even won Best Vodka in 2018 at the World Vodka Awards in London. Through the innovation of strategies and use of digital marketing, they made significant growth with a 40% annual return. Grew 2 FTE to the current 20 in 19 years in the business. It is amazing to know how a small business grows through innovations and a great attitude in spite of challenges. Diane Rae has shown a great attitude toward the challenges her business had faced which helped the business to become more successful. “The challenges in growing a small business is such a wonderful field for creativity and thinking outside the square.”- Diane Rae This Cast Covers: How a particular passion in business leads to success. How challenges in growing a small business become pieces for innovation. Leading the team members to do the right things in order for the business to survive. How making a profit means having fun in business. The importance of understanding differences and being the key to a successful business. How hard work means a lot in growing a business. Getting the most amazing rewards in return for fulfilling the things needed by the business. How digital marketing helps small business owners communicate their products to people. Motivating each team member to do the right thing. Being innovative for significant growth and development.  Additional Resources: Ewenique Enterprises Food Business News Make It Tasmania Building Community Food Webs By Ken Meter ………………………………………… Quotes: “If you are not making a profit, you’re not actually having fun in your business.” – Diane Rae “It is important to know your whys because it drives you.” – Diane Rae “Success means hard work.” – Diane Rae “Learn to respect each other and understand each other’s strengths and weaknesses, understanding the differences is the key to a successful business.” – Diane Rae  “The challenges in growing a small business is such a wonderful field for creativity and thinking outside the square.” – Diane Rae ………………………………………… Music from https://filmmusic.io “Cold Funk” by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.com).

Sandeep Maheshwari is a name among millions who struggled, failed and surged ahead in search of success, happiness and contentment. Just like any other middle class guy, he too had a bunch of unclear dreams and a blurred vision of his goals in life. All he had was an undying learning attitude to hold on to. Rowing through ups and downs, it was time that taught him the true meaning of his life. And once discovered, he consistently kept resigning from his comfort zone and to share the secret of his success with the entire world. It is this very urge of helping people and doing something good for the society that inspired him to take the initiative of changing people's lives in the form of "Free Life-Changing Seminars and Sessions". No wonder people connect with him and his mission of 'Sharing' is now being actively propagated and practiced by millions. It is his diligent focus, the great support of his family and the faith of his team that keeps him going.
