He imagined vocalist Tamisha Waden (Foreign Exchange) soaring above "Steampowered Blues" and turned to collaborator Amelia Meath (Sylvan Esso) to co-write Miles Away. His band The Guitarheels forged a common language touring the world with Cook and he crafted each new song with reverence for each players’ artistic brilliance. Since Southland Mission, Cook has performed with childhood heroes including Mavis Staples, Bruce Hornsby, John Prine, Amy Ray and The Blind Boys of Alabama. Each track asserts that he alone is no greater than the sum of the people who have brought him to this moment. Having only recently stepped to the center of the stage as a solo artist, Cook now takes a moment, citing the power of community as his thesis statement.
With the arrival of People Are My Drug, Phil Cook is taking the spark from lights left on by musical heroes and offering a torch for listeners as they navigate their own dark corners. In present times, choosing to amplify community and positivity through art can seem like a radical act.

There is some speculation that this boiling river might have been man-made, the result of an oil field accident, as it is situated about 2 kilometers from an active oil field in the Peruvian Amazon according to Nat Geo.Īlso tonight, Mariana van Zeller investigates the mysterious attack on the U.S. In an article for Nat Geo, Ruzo is interviewed about this river. Smiling and looking all around, he sweeps his arm to make his point as he says,”This much energy coming out of the ground today? This guy’s got no contenders… we haven’t found anything as big and powerful as The Boiling River!”
Ruzo is adamant they are in a wholly unique geothermal spot that takes the cake, heat-wise. He asks Ruzo, “Can you think of anywhere on the planet that is four hundred miles away from a volcano that has this much power?” Andrés Ruzo tells Phil Keoghan about the boiling river, deadly if you fall in. The field lab where Andres is unlocking the secrets of an ancient mysterious geological system. Pic credit: Nat Geo ChannelĪs Ruzo shows him the winding river that gets hotter with each step, Phil says, “But the danger is worth the risk because this superheated river is also a scientist’s treasure trove. Walking with his expert guide who knows the river, Phil says: “As we resume our trek I see why people might seek out protection.”Īs he moves further down the river, his guide Andres Ruzo cautions him more as Phil notes, “The water here has jumped to over a hundred and thirty degrees… the temperature of hot coffee.” Andrés Ruzo tells Phil Keoghan about the boiling river, which begins normal temperature until the area where it heats up. The focus of my dissertation was to create the first detailed heat flow map of Peru in order to identify areas of potential geothermal energy.” Much later, when I was working on my PhD in geophysics, I started looking at this detail from a scientific viewpoint. “I first heard the story of the Boiling River as a boy in Lima from my grandfather as part of a legend of a lost city of gold in the Amazon. Now a geophysicist, Ruzo first heard about the Boiling River from his Peruvian grandfather. His guide is Andrés Ruzo, a National Geographic Young Explorer. And in our exclusive clip, Phil is walking alongside this cauldron of steaming water that would kill him if he slipped.
