Podcasts about Worlds

Ep 161 Description:  "If we were born in a loving way into the world, that will change the future generations." —Magaly Buitrago   The moment of birth exists in a liminal space between worlds, where science and mystery intertwine. No technology can fully capture the mystery of bringing human life into existence. And in this critical moment, women become portals of creation, simultaneously vulnerable and invincible. Magaly Buitrago, aka “La-Maga”, is a Colombian-born doula and spiritual guide. Magaly's profound near-death experience during childbirth completely transformed her understanding of life, death, and human potential. Her extraordinary journey from a near-fatal birth to becoming an international birth empowerment specialist reveals the incredible resilience of the feminine spirit. Tune in as Debra and Magaly dive deep into Magaly's orgasmic birth and spiritual awakening, overcoming birth fears, the connection between sexuality and spirituality, and how positive birth narratives can potentially heal generational trauma.   Connect with Debra!

Long before Orson Welles provoked a panic with his 1938 radio broadcast of a Martian invasion in War of the Worlds, we were fascinated with the possibility of life on the Red Planet. We may be a step closer to finding it after the Perseverance rover turned up tantalizing evidence of possible ancient life in the form of mineral deposits in a Martian rock. But to be sure, we need to test that rock sample in a lab here on Earth, and the NASA Mars Sample Return Mission has been suspended. Still, our passion for our favorite inhabited world has not diminished. From the latest possible biosignature, to the supposed canals on Mars, to how the early 20th century Martian craze influenced vaudeville, we consider the many ways we are Mad About Mars. Guests: Janice Bishop – Senior research scientist at the SETI Institute. Adam Frank – Astrophysicist at the University of Rochester David Baron – Author of “The Martians: The True Story of an Alien Craze that Captured Turn of the Century America” Featuring music by Dewey Dellay and Jun Miyake You can get early access to ad-free versions of every episode by joining us on Patreon.

This week on the Jochum Strength Podcast we are stoked to bring on Harry Walker. Describing a guest is usually a simple task but for Harry that goes out the window completely. He is a Strength Coach, Wildland Firefighter, Strongman Athlete, Army National Guard Soldier, and a USMC Veteran. Throughout the episode we talk about concurrently balancing the physical demands of all these responsibilities, competing in various competitions around the world, as well as some light philosophical topics. This was an awesome episode that displays how taking on challenges leads to meaningful work. As always thanks for listening and enjoy the episode.

Send us a textThe race began before the gun—shoulder to shoulder, 12 rows deep, with a call-up protocol that flipped expectations and turned the opening meters into a high-stakes fight for position. From a fast frontage road into stairs and tight singletrack, Tyler McCandless had to manage chaos without panic: protect effort, find clean lines, and pass only when it counted. What followed was a masterclass in patience and presence—steady gains through the forest, a fierce late surge on a 30% wall to the summit, and a finish that helped Team USA lock down bronze at the World Mountain Running Championships in Confranc.We get into the texture of Worlds that you can't see on a results sheet: the camaraderie of sharing meals with athletes you'd never usually race alongside, the electricity of cheering other disciplines all week, and the way team identity changes how you suffer. Tyler breaks down the travel and course recon with Joe Gray, the jet lag fix that worked, and the quiet confidence that came from previewing key sections. We also revisit Broken Arrow VK—how a last-minute course change erased the runnable grind he wanted, why he still qualified under pressure, and what it feels like to crest steep singletrack with David Sinclair closing fast.There's gear talk too—Nike's radical cooling long sleeve, why it's more than a fashion statement, and how innovation is finally meeting trail reality. Then we look ahead: a winter marathon bid to punch a fifth Olympic Trials ticket (sub-2:16), plus a summer slate that fits Tyler's engine—Sierre-Zinal, Pikes Peak Ascent, and select Golden Trail races. And we make the case for a dedicated U.S. uphill series to cultivate specialists, build team culture, and grow the fan base with short, watchable vertical races.If you enjoy stories of resilience, smart racing on steep ground, and the power of team over self, you'll want to queue this one up. Hit follow, share it with a trail friend, and leave a quick review—what part of Tyler's strategy would you try on your next climb?Follow Tyler on IG - @tracktyFollow James on IG - @jameslaurielloFollow the Steep Stuff Podcast on IG - @steepstuff_podUse code steepstuffpod for 25% off your cart at UltimateDirection.com!

In American Judaism today, Orthodoxy is the fastest growing movement. However, Orthodoxy is anything but monolithic. Living in Both Worlds: Modern Orthodox Judaism in the United States, 1945–2025 by Lawrence Grossman explores a piece of the Orthodox story, that of Modern Orthodoxy. For those who may be unfamiliar, Modern Orthodoxy affirms the traditional tenets and practices of Orthodox Judaism while at the same time maintaining an openness to contemporary cultural and intellectual developments. Beginning in the post-World War II era, Living in Both Worlds shows how a fledgling Modern Orthodoxy carved out an identity separate and apart from unacculturated ultra-Orthodoxy to its right and Conservative Judaism to its left, and follows its development through the first quarter of the twenty-first century as new, divisive issues such as feminism, LGBTQ rights, and the spread of academic biblical scholarship challenged its coherence, and a rejuvenated ultra-Orthodoxy contested its religious legitimacy. This is a book that not only records history but challenges us to think deeply about question about how modernity and tradition intersect and explores the delicate dance to have fidelity to both the past and the present moment. Rabbi Lawrence Grossman worked at the American Jewish Committee for close to 40 years, serving as director of publications and editor of the American Jewish Year Book. He earned BA and MHL degrees and rabbinical ordination from Yeshiva University, and a PhD in history from the City University of New York Graduate Center. Rabbi Marc Katz is the Senior Rabbi at Temple Ner Tamid in Bloomfield NJ. He is the author of Yochanan's Gamble: Judaism's Pragmatic Approach to Life (JPS) Learn more about your ad choices.

“The one thing I reminded myself of and something my coach has been telling me all year is this: Don't feel like you have to be anybody else. What you've been doing has been working for you. Continue to do that. If you've been being Melissa all year and you've been winning all year, what else do you need to do? Just go out there and be yourself.”My guest for today's episode is Melissa Jefferson-Wooden — the 25-year-old from Georgetown, South Carolina who just pulled off one of the rarest feats in track and field: the golden sprint triple crown.At the World Championships in Tokyo, Melissa won the 100, the 200, and was part of the Team USA team that took gold in the 4x100m relay — becoming the first American woman ever, and only the second woman in history after Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, to sweep the sprints at a single Worlds.Her winning times — 10.61 in the 100m and 21.68 in the 200m — weren't just dominant; they cemented her as the fourth-fastest woman of all time and within striking distance of Flo-Jo's world record.But what makes Melissa's story so special isn't just the speed. It's also the journey.If you've followed some of her career leading into 2025, she calls herself a self-described ‘village kid' who had two partial college offers. She saved her dad's life at 17 years old with a bone marrow transplant. She built herself from an NCAA champion out of Coastal Carolina to a global superstar, who can boast the title of the fastest woman on earth.In this episode, we talk about that rise, the lessons that come with greatness all throughout 2025 from her races in April through September, and how she's thinking about being one of the faces of the sport.____________Host: Chris Chavez | ⁠⁠@chris_j_chavez on Instagram⁠Guest: Melissa Jefferson-Wooden | @__melissaj19 on Instagram Produced by: Jasmine Fehr | ⁠⁠⁠@jasminefehr on Instagram⁠⁠⁠____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSHOKA: We're takin' over Happy Camper Chicago (Old Town) with HOKA during the Chicago Marathon festivities.

PREVIEW-HALLIDAY-ICE-10-19.mp3. Otherlands: A Journey Through Earth's Extinct Worlds. Thomas Halliday. Continuing his conversation with John Batchelor, Thomas Halliday, author of Otherlands: A Journey Through Earth's Extinct Worlds, explains that planet Earth exists in only two environmental states: greenhouse Earth and icehouse Earth. We currently live in an icehouse Earth, defined by the presence of ice at the poles, which is critical for planetary conditions and the evolution of life. The cooling of Antarctica resulted from the opening of the Drake Passage, which enabled the formation of the circumpolar current. Before this event, large parts of Antarctica, including Seymour Island, contained temperate rainforest ecosystems supporting diverse mammal communities and multiple penguin species. The circumpolar current prevented the exchange of warmth with the tropics, causing the continent to cool and glaciers to form and spread.

HEADLINE: The Pleistocene Mammoth Steppe and the Mosaic Environment of Early Human Evolution BOOK TITLE: Other Lands, a journey through Earth's Extinct Worlds GUEST AUTHOR NAME: Thomas Halliday 200-WORD SUMMARY: This excerpt introduces the work of paleontologist and evolutionary biologist Thomas Halliday, beginning in the Pleistocene era, 20,000 years ago. The focus is the Mammoth Steppe, described as the largest ecosystem on the planet. This cold, arid, grass-dominated environment stretched from Western Europe across Beringia into Alaska and the Yukon, managed by large herbivores like mammoths, woolly rhinos, and bison. Today, this entire community is essentially non-existent. The apex predator discussed is Arctodus Simus, the fearsomely large short-faced bear. The narrative then moves backward to the Pliocene, 4 million years ago, in the East African Rift Valley(Kenya/Ethiopia). This region, marked by sequences of ancient lakes, features a crucial mosaic environment of forests and grasslands. This mixed habitat was extremely important for the evolution of versatile, problem-solving organisms, including early human ancestors. The earliest species definitively known to be more closely related to humans than chimpanzees, Orrorin tugenensis, occupied this land. Halliday emphasizes exploring ecosystems that, while humans were present globally, were not yet heavily modified by human activity.

HEADLINE: The Zanclean Flood, Dwarfed Island Life, and Transatlantic Rafting in the Miocene and Oligocene BOOK TITLE: Other Lands, a journey through Earth's Extinct Worlds GUEST AUTHOR NAME: Thomas Halliday 200-WORD SUMMARY: This segment covers the Miocene and Oligocene eras. In the Miocene (5.3 million years ago), the Mediterranean basin dried out after losing its connection to the Atlantic at the Straits of Gibraltar. This basin was dramatically refilled during the spectacular Zanclean Flood, caused by an earthquake that allowed the Atlantic to surge back, resulting in a mile-high waterfall near Sicily. Before the flood, Gargano Island (now a peninsula in Italy) was home to dwarf fauna. Fossils recovered from its caves include Hoplomeryx, a deer-like organism characterized by saber teeth and five horns. Its main predators were giant birds, such as eagles and buzzard relatives. Moving to the Oligocene(33 million years ago), the discussion centers on South America as an island continent and the spread of grasslands. Grasses defended themselves with silica crystals, necessitating the evolution of specialized grazers with continually growing teeth, like early horses. A key evolutionary event was transoceanic rafting. African monkeys, rodents, freshwater fish, and amphibians crossed the Atlantic Ocean—which was two-thirds its modern width—on structurally sound fragments of land that detached during storms.

HEADLINE: Knuckle Walkers and the Discovery of Color in Cretaceous Dinosaurs BOOK TITLE: Other Lands, a journey through Earth's extinct worlds GUEST AUTHOR NAME: Thomas Halliday 200-WORD SUMMARY: This section focuses on the Cretaceous period, 125 million years ago, exploring the heyday of non-avian dinosaurs. Herbivores, such as the 17-meter-long titanosaurs, are described as "knuckle walkers" because they lost their finger bones and supported their immense weight on modified hand bones. The forests at this time were primarily composed of conifers, ginkos, and ferns, as flowering plants were only just beginning to emerge. The site of Liaoning, China, provides extraordinary preservation, allowing scientists to determine dinosaur coloration. By examining melanosomes (pigment packets) preserved at a subcellular level, researchers identified patterns, such as the black bandit stripe on Sinosauropteryx. Furthermore, the counter shading found on Psittacosaurus suggests it lived in a forested ecosystem. Defense mechanisms, similar to those seen in modern ecology, were also present. For instance, lace wings (Grammalysa) possessed eye spots on their wings, likely intended to mimic the eyes of a predator, most plausibly a small theropod dinosaur, thus providing a glimpse into Cretaceous signaling and ecology.

HEADLINE: Pangea's Mega-Monsoons, Coal Formation, and the Unclassifiable Tully Monster BOOK TITLE: Other Lands, a journey through Earth's Extinct Worlds GUEST AUTHOR NAME: Thomas Halliday 200-WORD SUMMARY: This segment examines the Permian and Carboniferous eras. In the Permian (253 million years ago), the single supercontinent Pangea caused a mega-monsoon system involving extreme seasonal wetness and dryness. Sites like Moradi, Niger, show creatures adapted to this arid environment. Organisms included the bulk herbivore Umoist and the apex predator Gorgonops, a close relative of mammals with large canines. This period was immediately followed by the "Great Dying," the largest mass extinction event in Earth's history. The Carboniferous (390 million years ago) saw the first extensive forests. As trees fell into vast, tropical swamps, the water inhibited decay, leading to the preservation of organic material that eventually formed the world's coal deposits. This process sequestered carbon, contributing to lower atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations later in history. The final topic is the Tully Monster(Tullimonstrum), a small, torpedo-shaped creature with eyes on stalks that remains a profound paleontological mystery. It is intensely debated whether this organism is a vertebrate, and because it has no known descendants, it is classified as an evolutionary experiment that did not pan out.

HEADLINE: Life on Land Collaboration: Devonian Mycorrhizae and Silurian Deep-Sea Vents BOOK TITLE: Other Lands, A Journey Through Earth's Extinct Worlds GUEST AUTHOR NAME: Thomas Halliday 200-WORD SUMMARY: This source details the move of life onto land and the origins of ecosystems. In the Devonian(407 million years ago), life thrived through collaboration, notably the crucial partnership of Mycorrhizae (fungi and roots). This collaboration was essential for plants to develop roots and extract mineral resources from rocks, while the fungi gained energy from plant photosynthesis. Evidence from Rynie, Scotland—a Yellowstone-like ecosystem with hot springs—shows detailed preservation of these interactions. The largest organism on land at this time was Prototaxites, a lichen structure that grew up to 9 meters tall. Arthropods, such as the freshwater shrimp Rhyniella, were among the first animals to inhabit the land. The conversation shifts to the Silurian (435 million years ago) and the deep ocean. The site of Yaman-Kassie is the earliest known fossilized hydrothermal vent with organisms living on it. These deep-sea vents support life via a chemical-based food chain independent of light. Halliday references the major hypothesis that life itself originated at similar deep alkaline vents, based on replicable chemistry that naturally creates the necessary hydrogen ion gradients. The segment concludes with the Ordovician mass extinction (444 million years ago), the first of the "big five" mass extinctions, which was caused by global cooling followed by rapid warming, stressing marine life with a high rate of climate change.

PREVIEW-HALLIDAY-DRAKE-10.mp3. Otherlands: A Journey Through Earth's Extinct Worlds. Thomas Halliday. This excerpt features John Batchelor speaking with Thomas Halliday, the author of Otherlands: A Journey Through Earth's Extinct Worlds. Halliday describes the profound geological event that caused Antarctica to become ice-covered. Previously, the Antarctic Peninsula—including Seymour Island—was connected to Patagonia, maintaining a temperate climate with forests and diverse populations of mammals and birds. The cooling process began when the peninsula moved away from South America, opening the Drake Passage. This opening allowed the circumpolar current to form, isolating the weather system of the South Pole and preventing the exchange of warmth from South America and the tropics. This shift led to the emergence and spread of glaciers across the continent, a process that unfolded over tens of millions of years.

This week on The Kinescope Podcast, John and the panel revisit the gripping 1957 Studio One production “The Night America Trembled.” Hosted by Edward R. Murrow and featuring a remarkable early cast — including Warren Beatty, Ed Asner, Warren Oates, James Coburn, and John Astin — the teleplay dramatizes the nationwide panic sparked by Orson Welles' infamous 1938 War of the Worlds broadcast. While the story amps up the hysteria for television, it remains a fascinating look at how a single night of radio blurred the line between fact and fiction for millions of listeners.
