Episode 168: USCG and the Arctic
There is a fair bit of talk about the rush for the arctic for economic and strategic reasons - and where there is international interest on the seas, the nations involved need to think about what is the best way to secure their interests. While the initial thought might be Navy - is the natural answer really the Coast Guard? If the USCG is the right answer, is it trained, manned and equipped for the job?
What does it need to do in order to fulfill its role - and why may it be the best answer to the question - who will show the flag up north? Our guest this Sunday for the full hour from 5-6pm EST will be U.S. Naval War College Professor James R. Holmes. As a starting point for our conversation, we will use his latest article in Foreign Policy: America Needs a Coast Guard That Can Fight: As the Arctic becomes an arena for conflict, the United States’ forgotten naval force will need to cowboy up.

Sue Stockdale
Sue Stockdale is an inspirational speaker, coach and adventurer whose business and adventure experience has helped hundreds of leaders and entrepreneurs step out of their comfort zone and achieve extraordinary results. From athlete and adventurer to entrepreneur and executive coach, Sue demonstrates how you can achieve anything if you believe it is possible. Her keynote presentations include powerful images and thought-provoking messages and as a result, attendees leave with more enthusiasm, focus, and commitment to action. Sue started her career in Corporate Training and Development working for British Gas in the UK and then moved to a role with the United Nations in the former Yugoslavia. In 1995, Sue saw an advertisement in a newspaper which said: “Wanted – novice arctic explorers to ski to the Magnetic North Pole”. As an athlete who had represented Scotland, Sue knew she might be fit enough, but had no experience of cross-country skiing or arctic temperatures. She sent off for details and when the brochure arrived asking “are you man enough for the Ultimate Challenge?” she became determined to win her place on the team. Following months of assessments and gruelling tests, she was eventually chosen from over 500 applicants, and after raising $25,000 she achieved her place on the expedition. During the 30 day expedition, Sue was continually tested both physically and mentally and became the first British woman to ski to the Magnetic North Pole. After this success, Sue took part in expeditions to the Geographical North Pole, Antarctica and Greenland. She finished runner-up in Channel 4’s Superhuman undergoing some of the toughest scientific tests ever seen on TV

Self Reliant Living
Winter Safety Made Real – Part 2 Presented in Part-1 of Winter Safety Made Real was the footing for this whole WSMR series: the purpose and approach to winter safety, along with “Why Winter Experiences Fail”, “The Taboos of Cold Weather”, “The Wives Tales of Winter”, and An Introduction to PALS™. Part-2 will present more fully the key points and performance possibilities using PALS™ (the Phillips Arctic Living System™) and why Jim does what he does and the benefit it can bring others. One of the most important parts in this presentation will be the in depth explanation of the bodys physiological response to the cold and the key steps to keeping hands and feet warm. Possessing this understanding alone can dramatically change a persons comfort and safety in the cold. Jim Phillips is a nationally known speaker and teacher who has professionally taught thousands of classes all across the United States for 40 years. For a number of years prior to this career, his hobby was teaching cold weather safety & survival.Jim is a strong advocate of self-reliance living and family preparedness. He developed an entire preparedness curriculum by asking himself the question "What if?" and then setting out to discover what actually does and does not work. The answers he seeks (and then teaches) must be based on true principles derived from first hand experience. Above all else, he believes that attitude and practical knowledge is more critical to survival than having a bunch of "stuff." (“Who you are and what you know is far more important than what you have.”) Learn More About Jim
