  • Bruce “Buck” Nelson: The Great Outdoors | Tom Nelson Pod #330

    Bruce Nelson shares his recent wilderness adventures, including a three-week solo paddling and fishing trip in Southwest Alaska where he didn't encounter anyone for 18 days, a Denali bike trip with wildlife sightings, and longer streaks of isolation like 40 days in the Brooks Range. He discusses survival strategies such as calorie-dense food planning, water treatment to avoid illnesses like Giardia, and emergency fixes like using body heat or hot water bottles for wet gear, drawing from past miserable experiences in harsh weather. Nelson recounts major expeditions like retracing the Lewis and Clark route by paddling upstream on the Missouri River, hiking the 2,200-mile Desert Trail, and the Minnesota Border Route Trail, along with entertaining smokejumper stories involving bizarre challenges and a world-record mosquito slap.

  • Lynne Balzer: "Dirty roots of the climate scam" | Tom Nelson Pod #326

    After retiring from a career teaching physics, chemistry and biology, Lynne Balzer began organizing extensive notes from a decade-long investigation of the climate change issue. Considering all the facts and looking at the connection between the science, history and politics of this issue, Lynne reached the inevitable conclusion that “human-caused global warming” is one of the greatest hoaxes ever visited upon mankind. 


    Working with Faraday Science Institute, a nonprofit organization, she has researched the topic of global climate change for thirteen years, sorting out fact from fiction.
