- Lab to StartupBusiness, Technology, Entrepreneurship 30 Apr
Hundreds of thousands of researchers around the world are working to improve life and address imminent threats to humanity. Often, the research ends up in the “Scientific valley of death” in the form of publications and patents that never see the light of the day.
Welcome to “Lab to Startup” a podcast aimed at showcasing the effort needed to translate lab research to startups. The show has two main goals: 1. Sharing the stories of those scientists and engineers who have successfully founded startups based on the research at university and national labs. 2. Highlighting the resources and tools needed to help those aspiring to launch startups in the deeptech space.
We also want this show to be a way to communicate those technology development stories to the general public (taxpayers funding the research) in the hope that they will continue to support such research and startups.

- Death Valley Days - Radio Show OTRArts, Performing Arts 5 Nov 2023
In the annals of American storytelling, there lies a radio program that stands as a monument to the rugged individualism and frontier spirit that forged the West. "Death Valley Days," an anthology that swept across the airwaves like a tumbleweed, was as much a part of the American landscape as the crimson hues of a desert sunset.Each episode was a mosaic, pieced together with the grit of miners, the dreams of pioneers, and the lawlessness of boomtowns. It wasn’t just a show; it was a tribute to the indomitable will of men and women who shaped the craggy face of the American West.Listeners would tune in, transported by the magic of radio to the scorching sands and lonely canyons of Death Valley. The tales were steeped in truth, a history lesson delivered with the crackle of authenticity that only radio could provide. These stories were the echoes of pickaxes in abandoned mines, the whispers of ghost towns, and the laughter in saloons that vanished into the dust of history."Death Valley Days" brought the Old West into the living rooms of the New West, the America that had traded wagon wheels for radio dials. And yet, the spirit remained unbridled. It was here, amidst the cacti and coyotes, that America remembered its past and the echoes of boots and spurs that still rang, long after the radio was silent. Charles Kuralt would have recognized the beauty in its simplicity, the truth in its tales, and the vastness of the landscape it conjured in the imagination of its listeners, every bit as expansive as the skies above the storied valley itself.
Join host, singer-songwriter Lo Carmen, as she travels through the valley of death and emerges on the other side, exploring how we remember, eulogise and celebrate our loved ones, end of life navigations, mind-blowing death rituals and customs from all around the world , incredible innovations and futuristic options for after life planning, fascinating insights from Death’s door and examinations into the intersections of Art, Music, Life, Death and beyond.

Filled with descriptions of the magnificent Swiss Alps, the lives of the simple country folk who live in their picturesque peaks and valleys and the gentle and innocent days of childhood, Heidi by Johanna Spyri is a book that no child should miss reading. Since it first came out, it has captured the hearts of children (and adults) all over the world, been extensively filmed, televised and staged and translated from the original German into more than 60 languages. Heidiland, a theme park, is one of the big attractions in Zurich.
Heidi The Girl from the Alps by Swiss children's author Johanna Spyri was published in two parts in 1880. It tells of Heidi, a little Swiss girl whose parents' sudden death leaves her to be brought up by her aunt. Aunt Dete is a career-woman who though she loves Heidi, does not have the time or resources to look after a child in busy Frankfurt. She leaves Heidi with Heidi's grandfather, who lives in the Swiss mountains. The lonely, embittered old man lives like a hermit on the mountain-top and has nothing to do with the people in the village below. Known to all as “Alm-uncle” Heidi's grandfather is good-hearted but mistrustful of the villagers. He refuses to send Heidi to school and allows her to roam the pastures with a young goat herder, Peter. They become good friends but events take a turn when Aunt Dete decides that Heidi must stay in Frankfurt and learn to earn a living.
She is employed as a companion to a rich invalid child, Clara, and soon learns to read and write along with the little girl. The city begins to take its toll on the young Heidi and she becomes ill and depressed. How Heidi returns to her beloved mountains, reforms her crotchety old grandfather and helps Clara regain her health forms the rest of this delightful story.
This unassuming and easy to read book remains fresh and unspoiled, still receiving an enthusiastic response throughout the world. Generations of kids have enjoyed reading about the naïve and spontaneous Heidi, the mischievous Peter, the bitter and lonely Alm-uncle, the strict and authoritarian housekeeper Fraulein Rottenmeier, the long-suffering Clara and Clara's kind and gracious grandmother Frau Sesemann.
This sweet and charming story earned eternal fame for its shy, retiring author who endured several personal tragedies and wrote many other pleasing stories, but none so famous as Heidi, The Girl from the Alps.
The movies we love, and the foods that helped shape them. Rob Alley (of The Great Song Podcast) and Zeke Tucker dive into a mix of favorite films, bonafide classics, and audience suggestions, discussing them in moderate depth and singling out a food or drink element to try, make, or discuss.
