About Guest

Robert Young Pelton is an explorer, adventurer, author, journalist and documentary filmmaker. An iconoclast known for his entry into most of the world’s conflicts over the last twenty five years, Pelton is known for his ability to enter forbidden, deadly and violent places and emerge with a stunning story. His career began with a multi-week profile by ABC News Online called “Dangerous Places” where Pelton invented the “SoJo” concept of nonstop writing, photos, video and interactive reported from the world’s hotspots.

“When I travel to the worlds most dangerous places, I see the best, and worst in people, and I see it with my own eyes. There is a purity in that. Seeing life for yourself unfiltered by other peoples judgements. And at journeys end I am never really the same person I was at the beginning, but maybe that is the biggest discovery of all” ~RYP

“What you learn from doing this type of travel, from this type of goal. Is that first of all the Earth is round, everyone is your neighbor. We always think there is an imaginary line between countries. There isn’t. Maybe people speak a different language or they have a different cultural background but they all have the same goals and needs and desires and wants. We tend to insulate ourselves in the western world, because we have everything” ~ RYP

“We fool ourselves sometimes we think we don’t need to pay attention to world events, but we do. And More importantly we need to take the time we have to go to these places and listen to these people and share food with them and meet their kids. To understand what life is like for them, so when we come back to our world we make decisions with them in mind” ~ RYP

Ever wonder what the story “Raven” is based on? The craziness of the boys school founder RYP attended as a kid. This is one of the canoes from the school. Also – follow @_robert_young_pelton_ for more cool@photos and stories

I bought the freighter canoe I paddled 1000 miles in when I was ten years old. I cut in three pieces and burned two of them so it could not torture any more children. The remaining piece holds some of my many bizarre mementoes. #Canada #wilderness #North Saskatchewan #StJohnscathedralboyschool #TheAdventurist

Greg Allison At LeakCon2019

by radiant | Jun 4, 2019 | Interviews, Podcast

About Guest

We had the opportunity to talk to Greg Allison a NASA Scientist at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center and owner and founder of Green Greg’s Garden and Worm Farm at LeakCon2019. This should conversation could be summarized as, “Community is the way to thrive in the future”. Greg gave a talk on this topic at LeakCon2019 and a second on worm farming specifically. Access to all the talks is well worth the small fee. Greg might be the only NASA Scientist who drives a 1976 Chevy C30 with a 454!

We also talked about the importance of being humble, people waking up, losing the fear of knowledge, The MSM is not your friend, always travel with your your bug-out bag, knowledge is your key component for survival, to thrive you better know how to garden, and a brief look at geopolitics.

The video camera batteries died so the last few minutes are audio only.
