Quiet as it's kept inside the United States, the Cuban revolution has achieved some phenomenal goals, reclaiming Cuba's agriculture, advancing its literacy rate to nearly 100 percent - and remaking its medical system. Cuba has transformed its health care to the extent that this "third-world" country has been able to maintain a first-world medical system, whose health indicators surpass those of the United States at a fraction of the cost.  Don Fitz combines his deep knowledge of Cuban history with his decades of on-the-ground experience in Cuba to bring us the story of how Cuba's health care system evolved and how Cuba is tackling the daunting challenges to its revolution in this century.

When It's Not Just a TV Show - Penny Taylor

Explore abrupt climate change and pandemic induced by comets and asteroids during human history at George Howard’s blog called The Cosmic Tusk. The Tusk also contains a treasure trove of scientific documents in The Cosmic Tusk Bibliography or The Complete Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis Bibliography and Publication Archive. Links to fascinating findings throughout. For many years, George has been in close touch with a group of scientists known as the Younger Dryas Boundary Team, or Comet Research Group, which studies and proposes the Younger Dryas Boundary Hypothesis, which we’re going to talk a lot about here very soon.  At the Tusk and during this episode, you can find out about topics like what a Cosmic Tusk actually is, the recent findings of a cosmic impact at ancient Abu Hureyra, the mysterious and impressive Carolina Bays, the implications of the discovery of the Hiawatha Crater under an ice sheet in Greenland, and we even touch on infectious microbes inside cosmic dust collected from the OUTSIDE surface of Space Station windows. Yeah, links are in the show notes for your further exploration. Thanks for listening, subscribe if you haven’t already, and...for a little context, we recorded this a couple of months ago, when life was still relatively normal, despite the knowing that coronavirus impacts, pardon the pun, were on the way. You’ll also hear some curious audio sounds when I talk, in the early part of the episode which I minimized as much as possible while keeping all of the fun stuff. I think you’re going to enjoy hearing about all of this I mentioned earlier. So which one should we start with?  If you haven’t already, please tap subscribe in your preferred podcast player, and if you’d like to get email reminders when new episodes are published, click the link in the show notes to join the podcast email list.  Subscribe HERE for Email Episode Reminders Episode’s Music by Chris Candito and Abe Vandenberg Bandcamp -> “Time’ll Say”  All Podcast Music Album HERE THIS EPISODE’s WEBPAGE >>>>> Questions about this episode?  Want to share a comment or a topic for a future episode?  You can send me (Abe) an email using this online message form: Click Here Links and References: The Cosmic Tusk - Exploring abrupt climate change and pandemic induced by comets and asteroids during human history.

David Weissman was born in New York and served in the US Army for 13 years, with two deployments to Afghanistan. He is a former Republican and left MAGA and ended his support for Trump.

Amazement Receptors with Vismay Amrit

Bernie Taylor’s book “Before Orion” is premised on Joseph’s Campbell’s hero’s journey monomyth that is at the core of stories worldwide among indigenous peoples, the ancients, and our modern society. Bernie proposes that select cave paintings from 40,000 years ago are fundamental pieces in the human journey to self-realization, the foundation of written language, and a record of biological knowledge that irrevocably impacted some of the artistic styles, religious practices, and stories that are still with us.    ---> If you enjoy this podcast, tap on over to Apple Podcasts and kindly leave me a rating, write a review, and subscribe!  ___________   Genuinely Useful podcast is sponsored by Magical Egypt (go to this podcast’s Episode 13 with Chance Gardner, released Nov 8, 2018)   You can Save 15% on Magical Egypt with Coupon Code "genuse" Own Both Magical Egypt Series 1 and 2   ___________   This episode’s featured song - “Ukulele Beginning” https://abeslogic.bandcamp.com/track/ukulele-beginning   ---> Hear All of the Podcast's Featured Music HERE   See Episode Webpage  https://genuinelyuseful.com/podcast-ep20-bernie-taylor   ========+++========   HELP SPREAD THE WORD!   I’d love it if you could please share Genuinely Useful podcast on twitter and facebook:   https://twitter.com/genuinelyuseful   https://www.facebook.com/genuinelyuseful   If you enjoy this podcast, tap on over to Apple Podcasts and kindly leave me a rating, write a review, and subscribe!

The Forgotten Exodus with Bruce R Fenton

At The Temple of the Way of Light, a traditional Shipibo plant-medicine shamanic healing center in Peru, I sat down with former actor, photographer, Thai boxer Jason Sadhana Grechanik for a deep, thoughtful conversation about traditional plant medicine work. Jason was a facilitator during my recent 23 day, 7 ceremony ayahuasca retreat at the Temple, in the Amazon jungle.   “The Temple of the Way of Light is a traditional plant-medicine shamanic healing center located in the Peruvian Amazon Rainforest that offers intensive ayahuasca retreats with female and male Shipibo healers. We are dedicated to providing our guests with the opportunity to benefit from the ancient healing wisdom of the Shipibo people, and to helping this unique culture preserve its knowledge and identity in the 21st Century.”   ---> If you enjoy this podcast, tap on over to Apple Podcasts and kindly leave me a rating, write a review, and subscribe!

Sitting Up the Whole Time - Jason Sadhana Grechanik

Daniel’s podcast EMERGE is an inquiry into the emerging paradigms shaping the next phase of the human experiment. We have a great conversation about conversations and the nature of recording them for public release, soulcrafting, metamodernism, adapting to the idea of climate change, and what it’s like deciding to move to a monastery.   ---> If you enjoy this podcast, tap on over to Apple Podcasts and kindly leave me a rating, write a review, and subscribe!
