North

This conformation of the country causes the rivers of any size below the basin of the Po to flow into the Tyrrhenian or Tuscan Sea, rather than into the Adriatic.

Northern Italy, between the Alps and the Apennines, is drained by the Padus, or Po, and its tributaries.

It was called Gallia Cisalpina, Gaul on this side of the Alps, and corresponds in general to modern Lombardy.

The little river at Theseus, north of the Padus, flows into the Adriatic.

Political quarrels.

The war with Jugurtha ended none too soon, for Marius was needed in a struggle requiring all his talents.

The Cimbri and Teutones, barbarous nations from Northern Europe, were threatening the frontiers of Italy.

Already the Roman armies had met with five successive defeats at their hands on the banks of the Rhone.

So as you can very well tell, we're in cast strength territory.

So that means we are going to go to way up north.

In Hollock, Minnesota, 63 miles from the Canadian border, with a brand called Far North.

Now, this is a single cask from Lost Lantern, and I have had this for a while.

This was a bottling back in 2025.

Normally, I record my podcast at about 7 p.m.

So if you guys ever want to be a guest on the said podcast, know that it's going to be about that time.

This is Far North Spirits Estate Grown Minnesota Straight Rye Whiskey.

Never crossed my mind.

His squad is dead last in the NFC North, by the way.

Okay.

One of the best conferences in the entire league.

We've been out of the Carolinas for over a week now.

After about the third one, there's no more shit coming out.

There's not that much of my body anymore after getting away from that North South Carolina food.

Yeah, it's true.

Oh, I say that the bid just went to a dollar 12.

I was going to say if past his prologue, he should be hitting every bid North with both freaking hands because that bid will last approximately eight minutes.

And you just said it's already going back the other way.

So yeah, that's a, That's we've said it many times over the past year and a half.

And, you know, I remember when Stockport County were at this level that Cray are at, you know, not that long ago.

I mean, they shouldn't have been at National League North level and it was a disgrace they were, but they were there.

And Cray, I'm really delighted for Cray Wanderers.

You know, they seem to do things the right way.

Only 85 through the gate though, Chris.

And when you look at what other teams get in that division, I know Erith are probably one of the only other ones that struggle with numbers and even Broadbridge either heading towards the 180s, 200s now.

You can't sustain a team on those kind of numbers, can you? And I've looked quite often in the past at the North division that get...

You know, not great support either.

Now, it's very important to know that, um, China actually, um, uh, rather to, uh, consider is a part of Global South rather than the i- uh, informal narrative, East and the West.

So the, the concept of North and South is not ideological as, uh, East and West used to be.

And also very, very important to see, uh, what I would call the rebalancing the world with these two concepts.

And, uh, my friend, uh, Keisha Mababuni, the, the ambassador, uh, Singapore ambassador to UN, uh, talk about the CIA country, CIA country, not about CIA, the Central Intelligence Agency in the U.S., but C stands for China, I stand for India, and A- A, uh, stand for ASEAN.

In the, as early session, uh, Henry Wang mentioned about, uh, international organization of mediation, uh, which is located in Hong Kong, and, uh, certainly most of these members are developing or, or the, uh, in the country in the South.

Mm-hmm.

And, uh, of course, China also wanted to, um, probably have more from the, the North i, i-in the future.

Um, uh, also uh, uh, there's a, a new institution, international institute just established a few months ago in Shanghai called the World Data Organization, and, uh, it's in Beijing, I'm sorry.

So for me, it was understanding how to sift away all the information that the assessor did not need to know.

And when we're calling a two-star or a three-star at two in the morning, briefing them on an event, and they have a very short timeline to make a decision, whether it's a threat or not to North America, really focusing on those key details that they need to make that decision.

But also it's ensuring that everybody understands their role, ensuring that everyone understands the broader purpose and what is at stake and be able to expect the unexpected.

We have had a few surprises on watch over the years.

If you start getting excited, uh, the, uh, the comment posts will start feeling that nervousness and react accordingly.

So it will impair performance.

Your time commanding Joint Task Force North and Yellowknife put you at the center of Canada's Arctic operations.

What leadership lessons did you take from operating in such a unique and strategically important environment?

Okay.

North of that.

North of that.

And I do want to preface too by saying that, in general, I'm extremely transparent with almost everything, and in the right spaces, like behind closed doors, I will tell people how much I'm making, how much I'm making on certain partnerships, how I'm approaching those packages and stuff because I do think salary transparency, especially in the creator world where it's the Wild West, is super important.

But the reason I don't share is because I don't think that that should be public information.

...

some undercarriage stuff coming apart and kind of scraped back together in, uh, uh, s- Northern South Carolina.

Listen, survive and advance, all right?

Yeah.
