Saint Helena (S3.04): Full shownotes: http://.80dayspodcast.com/saint-helena | Support: www.patreon.com/80dayspodcast | Saint Helena - S3.04 In this episode of season 3 of 80 Days: an exploration podcast, we’ll be talking about Saint Helena, a volcanic tropical island in the South Atlantic Ocean, and one of the most isolated points of land in the world. Saint Helena is more than 2,000 kilometres (1,200 mi) from its nearest mainland neighbour. The nearest port is Namibe in Angola. It was uninhabited up until its discovery by the Portuguese in 1502, and was later taken over by the British. Used for much of its life as an island of exile, its most famous inhabitant was Napoleon Bonaparte, who was exiled there after his defeat at Waterloo. The island today has a population of just over 4500, and is roughly the size of Staten Island in New York or San Marino, at just 121 square kilometeres, or 47 square miles, and its climate is generally mild. The island is situated in the Western He

8. “Olas y Arenas” — The Beaches Belong to the People: Puerto Rico’s beautiful beaches are an integral part of Puerto Rican life. They form a ring of pleasure that encircles the whole island — an escape valve. And they’re one of the few places that are truly public. At least, that’s what the law says. Yet in practice, that stretch of land where the water meets the shore is the most contested space in all of Puerto Rico. And it’s rapidly disappearing, due to development and coastal erosion. In “Olas y Arenas,” Sylvia Rexach plays the role of the sand: she sings longingly for the ebb and flow of the sea, yearning for the waves that never quite reach her. The bolero is a classic unrequited love song, and our final episode of the season takes place in that same eternal tide. We explore the push and pull between lifelong residents and real estate developers, amidst the rapidly changing coastline, the rising tide, and the elusive letter of the law.

Tue 15 Mar: Atomic Crimes (Part 2 of 2) - Refugees - Binding Contracts - Runit Salute - Early Years - Same Names - New Plans: The added years have changed perceptions of an evil legacy. Sea Gypsies, the dome, and the new nuclear tourism. Much has changed since the late fifties brought new weapons and atoll attacks. Blackouts, sea floors, radioactive pools and the death snow. Operation Hardtack cleanup was underfunded by a distracted Congress. Stateside nuke production and a Missouri story. Argentina's historic nuke fraud. In the Pacific, exiled island natives can rarely return. The familiar names of Robinson and Sinclair appear as original island owners. Forbidden communications or outside visitors is to save the culture. Some recent history brings us full circle. New ideas for isolated islands include prisons for the corrupt and treasonous. Soccer balls in action? Take it all in and consider the true facts, because our nation's nuclear history may shape our future.

#364 The Very Gay History of Fire Island: The third and final part of the Bowery Boys Road Trip to Long Island -- the gay history of Fire Island! Fire Island is one of New York state’s most attractive summer getaways, a thin barrier island on the Atlantic Ocean lined with seaside villages and hamlets, linked by boardwalks, sandy beaches, natural dunes and water taxis. (And, for the most part, no automobiles.) But Fire Island has a very special place in American LGBT history. It is the site of one of the oldest gay and lesbian communities in the United States, situated within two neighboring hamlets -- Cherry Grove and the Fire Island Pines. During the 1930s actors, writers and craftspeople from the New York theatrical world began heading to Cherry Grove, its remote and rustic qualities allowing for gay and lesbians to express themselves freely -- far away from a world that rejected and persecuted them.  Performers at the Grove's Community House and Theater helped define camp cultur

8. “Olas y arenas” — las playas son del pueblo: Las hermosas playas de Puerto Rico son una parte integral de la vida puertorriqueña. Las costas forman un anillo de placer que rodea toda la isla, una válvula de escape. Y son uno de los pocos espacios que son verdaderamente públicos. Al menos, eso es lo que dice la ley. En la práctica, sin embargo, esa franja de tierra donde el agua se encuentra con la orilla es la zona más disputada de todo Puerto Rico. Y está desapareciendo rápidamente debido al desarrollo y la erosión costera. En "Olas y arenas", Sylvia Rexach desempeña el papel de la arena: ella le canta con nostalgia al flujo y el reflujo del mar, anhelando por las olas que nunca llegan a tocarla. Este bolero clásico es una canción de amor no correspondido, y nuestro último episodio de la temporada tiene lugar en esa misma eterna marea. Exploramos el tira y afloje entre los residentes de toda la vida y los desarrolladores inmobiliarios, en medio de la costa que cambia rápidamente, l
