  • The Diamond Ship: What You Didn't Know About Pirates
    Mar 12 2024

    Watch and learn from Master Storyteller and Historian Adrian Beckingham, whose research has unearthed the most remarkable of stories about slaves, pirates, a distant king - currently being wrapped as a major Hollywood film. History and legend remember many pirate stories and captains, but not the true story about the richest hoard in pirate history - until now. Follow the tale of people enslaved to mine diamonds for a distant king, who then turned pirate and seized the diamonds back. This story of slave emancipation and female empowerment not only inspires, but also takes a humorous look at many common misconceptions about traditional pirate life on the high seas. Laid buried for three centuries in odd pieces of parchment and random scraps of marine diaries, now these characters, their actions and dialogue are revealed for all to enjoy, in a film that is destined to become a truly treasured film classic. Listen in to this podcast session to learn a whole host of pirate facts you never knew before.

We hear about how her serpents add a rare quality of vibration to Kwali's life - including her kundalini teachings where they play an integral role. One of her greatest pleasures is witnessing how people who have come to her to face their fears, are magnetized by the enormous serpents and thereafter feel transformed and restored to face many of life's challenges. Kwali is a magnetic, uplifting and inspiring kundalini yoga and gong meditation teacher - She creates a high vibration, safe, and sacred space for healing and transformation to occur.

These interviews will be broadcast, a different woman each day, across the 31 days of March. The overall focus is to present to listeners a kaleidoscope of experiences about what it is to be a woman in 2023 - discovering through adversity, sometimes tragedy, always trials and triumph, a toolkit of true-life stories which offer a guiding light to act as a catalyst along a pathway toward self-identity, empowerment, and hope.
