In this episode we are diving into the surprisingly fascinating world of cerumen, the scientific name for earwax. We'll explore its protective role, why some people produce more than others, and what happens when it builds up too much. Plus, we'll introduce you to a safe, innovative technique that's changing the way we manage earwax buildup—no risky poking required. Sahil Diwan is the Co-Founder and CEO of SafKan Health, the company behind OtoSet® — the world's first automated ear-cleaning headphones that can clean earwax buildup in 30 seconds. He's on a mission to solve one of the most overlooked yet widespread health issues: earwax buildup, which affects 35M+ Americans and can lead to conductive hearing loss, tinnitus, and chronic discomfort — among other issues. A first-generation immigrant from India, Sahil's journey began with a deeply personal problem — his brother Aadil's lifelong struggle with earwax buildup. What started as a college dorm experiment with 3D-printed prototypes is today an FDA-cleared medical device used by clinics nationwide — making ear care more accessible and consumer-friendly than ever before. The company's flagship OtoSet was named among the Best Health Designs of 2023 by Fast Company, while videos of the device in action have racked up over 250M views online, proving just how urgent and universal this problem is. Tens of thousands of Americans have reported finding relief with OtoSet: hearing clearer, feeling cleaner, and reconnecting with the sounds they've been missing. Sahil is one of the youngest people ever to receive FDA 510(k) clearance for a medical device and has raised $13M in venture funding on his journey to reshape the future of ear care.

Hoy en el Matinal MiTrading con Giancarlo Prisco analizamos la situación actual de Bitcoin: lateralidad ligeramente bajista, flujo mixto en ETFs y una divergencia clara con el oro que podría provocar un rebote si se cierra la brecha.Puntos claveBitcoin lucha por mantenerse sobre ≈110.000 USD (pico el sábado en 110.263 USD).Flujos: el viernes se registró una salida diaria relevante (≈-160M$) pero la semana cerró con entradas netas (≈+250M$).Entradas concentradas en vehículos institucionales; otras bolsas/productos registraron salidas.Divergencia: oro y algunos índices subieron mucho (oro +7% y máximos históricos en la semana), mientras BTC se quedó rezagado — Santiment sugiere que cuando esa brecha se amplía, la probabilidad de un reequilibrio aumenta (posible “efecto ketchup”).Catalizadores clave a corto plazo: marco regulatorio en EE. UU. (debate en el Congreso), y la oleada de datos macro (inflación, empleo, subsidios) que condicionan las expectativas sobre la Fed.Conclusión: mercado en tensión y espera.

On this episode, Julia and Gino interview Father Leo Patalinghug. Born in the Philippines and raised in the Baltimore area, Fr. Leo actually developed his love for cooking while attending the seminary at the North American College in Rome. There, he became friendly with several Italian restaurant owners and would often invite them back to the student kitchen to trade cooking secrets. They would teach him about rigatoni and lasagna; he would show them how to make hamburgers and ribs. Today, he is a skilled cook who still enjoys learning how to make new dishes, and loves the process of preparing a meal, as much as he does sharing it with a table full of friends. Fr. Leo is the host and founder of Grace Before Meals, an apostolate to strengthen families and communities around the dinner table. He is a priest ordained for the Archdiocese of Baltimore, serving as a sacramental and pastoral minister on a part-time basis.

Meanwhile, California faces skyrocketing gas and electricity prices, mass population flight, and crumbling infrastructure. Victor Davis Hanson breaks down how Newsom's redistricting strategy mirrors Texas in name only and targets Republican incumbents on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “What Gavin wants to do is he's targeting Republican congresswomen and men. And he thinks that he can redraw the districts and put two Republican incumbents in the same district. And then, one will either drop out or they'll have to run against each other and one will win, and they will be diminished by half. He doesn't care about the 40% of his own state that won't have any congressional representation. That's not on his plan.”

nvestors keep score with growth rates, but this quarter you had to read the footnotes and the fine print. Microsoft put up eye-popping Azure growth again, but a big slice of that acceleration is AI inference — notably ChatGPT — now embedded in the revised Azure definition - great for headlines but not conducive to apples-to-apples comparisons. Meanwhile, AWS delivered the largest dollars and a very clear message that demand exceeds supply. Meaning growth is capped by power and components, not pipeline. That creates a weird optics penalty — AWS showing growth in the high teens growth on a $120B-plus run rate and it's a “concern.” But it also telegraphs future upside as capacity lands and depreciation cycles through. The stealth story is Google. Google Cloud posted a strong print with solid top-line growth and steadily improving operating margin — and GCP (the IaaS/PaaS core) is growing materially faster than Cloud overall - our estimate is nearly 40%. Backlog is building at more than $250M and $1B+ deals are real. As the mix shifts toward AI-heavy, infrastructure-centric workloads, it becomes a tailwind for Google, continues to lag the scale of AWS and Azure. Let's call it a disciplined scale strategy with less noise.The other common thread is a capex arms race that faces real constraints. All three players said the quiet part out loud — power, sites, servers, power and lead times will dictate who wins AI inference and who monetizes it. Microsoft is capacity-constrained, AWS says “several quarters” to rebalance, and Google raised capex again. This is not a one-quarter story; it's a multi-year land-and-power grab that will determine margin structures for the next cycle. Meanwhile, the Big three cloud players are on a pace to spend about $240B this year on CAPEX with AI revenue coming in at about 10% of that figure. We clearly have a big hurdle before that massive investment pays back.
