On today’s #GreatestTrek, Burnham and Moll teleport onto a set leftover from Apple TV’s Foundation, and engage in a little Mortal Kombat to determine the future of the Federation, and life itself.
If you’re a fan of #podcasts, there are over dozen of them dedicated to #JaneAusten and the Brontes. If I’m missing any, let me know so I can update the list!
I love podcasts. I love podcasts about people, stories of the ordinary.
Which is why I love Rumble Strip.
A couple of years back, Erica won a Peabody award for her episode "Finn & The Bell", a look at the story of Finn Rooney, a 17yo who took his own life, and the many ways in which he touched the small Vermont community he lived in.
If that subject matter isn't too much for you, then I wholeheartedly recommend listening to it -
I’m coming down with something and feel rough. Good job I work from home and have done a bunch of work in advance. Time to catch up on all the #podcasts
"I think [the government are] putting the money into the wrong areas. When you've got money that's taken off people that could be in their first home, and giving it to people that own multiple homes, there's a bit of an issue."
"I don't have a problem with tax breaks for people in business, whether that's running a business or being a landlord or whatever else, as long as the tax system across them is actually equitable."

Despite decades of rumours of a reboot of the cult classic BBC TV series Blake's 7, I don't think it will ever happen. Listening to a podcast called Star Fall;
The Tucker Carlson Show. In description: "The only solution to ending the propaganda spiral is by telling the truth. That's our job. Every day. No matter what."
On SiriusXM, The Megyn Kelley Show. In description: "No BS. No agenda."
That's just those two. Both promoted as "Top Podcasts In News." As long as truth remains relative, lies will prevail. Both Apple and SiriusXM contribute in their own profit-driven ways.
@nobs Guten Morgen, Auf der Suche nach Podcasts bin ich über diese Episode gestolpert mit der Architektin SAMANEH MOAFI. Musste sofort an dich denken, habe die Folge allerdings noch nicht ganz zu Ende gehört. https://rwm.macba.cat/en/podcasts/sonia-335-samaneh-moafi-2/
"Ocean Flyer, a business founded by former banker and Air Napier owner Shah Aslam and former New Zealand Air Force chief John Hamilton, is among the earliest customers.
They have a $700m order for 25 seagliders that they plan to operate along New Zealand’s coast for about $30 to $60 one-way. Regent has about NZ$10 billion in orders from around the world."
"... that's the beauty of seagliders when you talk about electric aviation. People are a bit wary of flying 10-20,000 feet in the air with electric batteries. Whereas in our case we're only 10m above the water, and we're always above a runway. So in the absolute worst case, you can just glide back onto the water, send out a signal for a pickup."
