Episode 321 Humans live a lot longer than other primates - and much of that is down to our immune system. But there's a price we pay for the capacity to fight off infections: inflammation. Chronic inflammation is to blame for a range of health issues, especially those related to older age. And now research has revealed exactly why inflammation is good for longevity but bad for health. Find out how proteins called death-fold domains often malfunction - and what this could mean for the future of drug development. Bigger than the Eiffel Tower and closer than the moon - the asteroid Apophis will skim past Earth in 2029 and will be visible to the naked eye. Don't worry, astronomers assure us it will NOT hit us. But it could be a good testbed for NASA's asteroid deflection technology, helping us to prepare for more dangerous space rocks in the future. With two major space agencies due to visit Apophis - what will we find? If you thought there was nothing new to learn about the extinction of the dinosaurs, think again. Something we hadn't yet considered was the impact dinosaurs had on the ecosystem. Given they were so massive, dinosaurs made wide-ranging changes to the planet's landscapes, such as shifting rivers. So when they were wiped out, there were huge knock-on effects, which researchers have now been examining.  Chapters: (00:00) Intro (00:41) The evolutionary price we pay for longer lives (13:47) The asteroid coming very close to Earth (26:42) How dinosaurs shaped their ecosystem Hosted by Rowan Hooper and Penny Sarchet, with guests Alison George, Alex Wilkins, Sam Wong and Richard Binzel.

You might remember news reporting from earlier this year that a 180-foot asteroid had about a 3% chance of hitting Earth in 2032. And if it did, it would unleash energy equivalent to hundreds of nuclear bombs. After further observations, astronomers revised that probability way down, to close to zero. So what is our current capability to spot Earthbound asteroids? And how are governments preparing to communicate and respond to a potential impact on a populated area?Joining Host Ira Flatow with some of the answers are Kelly Fast, from NASA's Planetary Defense Coordination Office, and Leviticus “L.A.” Lewis, former FEMA liaison for that office.Guests: Dr. Kelly Fast is the acting planetary defense officer in NASA's Planetary Defense Coordination Office, based in Laurel, Maryland.Leviticus “L.A.” Lewis is a former FEMA liaison to the NASA Planetary Defense Coordination Office.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

In this episode of SpaceTime, we uncover the secrets of ancient geology, explore the watery past of an asteroid, and delve into the origins of globular clusters.Supercontinent Breakup RevealedScientists have made significant strides in understanding the breakup of the supercontinent Rodinia, which occurred over 800 million years ago. Research conducted on rare minerals in Outback Australia has revealed how niobium-rich carbonatites rose through fault zones during tectonic rifting, providing insights into the geological processes that shaped our planet. These findings not only illuminate the history of Rodinia but also highlight the importance of niobium in modern technologies, such as electric vehicles and advanced alloys.Water Activity on Asteroid RichieExciting new research confirms that liquid water once flowed on the parent body of the near-Earth asteroid Richie, challenging previous assumptions about water activity on asteroids. Analysis of rock samples returned by Japan's Hayabusa2 mission has shown evidence of water movement through Ryugu's rocks, indicating that carbon-rich asteroids may have played a more significant role in delivering water to Earth than previously thought. This discovery has profound implications for our understanding of planetary formation and the conditions that made Earth habitable.Origins of Globular ClustersAstronomers are closer to solving the mystery of globular clusters, dense stellar systems that have puzzled scientists for centuries. Recent high-resolution computer simulations have revealed multiple pathways for their formation, suggesting that some may originate from satellite dwarf galaxies stripped of their outer stars during galactic mergers. This breakthrough could lead to new insights into dark matter and the formation of the universe's earliest stars.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesGeological Magazinehttps://www.tandfonline.com/journals/tgeo20Naturehttps://www.nature.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.Supercontinent Breakup RevealedWater Activity on Asteroid RichieOrigins of Globular Clusters

HEADLINE: China's Advanced Weapon Systems and Global Asteroid Defense Ambitions GUEST AND TITLE: Rick Fisher, Senior Fellow, International Assessment and Strategy Center; Gordon Chang, author and geopolitical analyst SUMMARY: Rick Fisher discusses China's new DF-26D ballistic missile, capable of intercepting aircraft carriers up to 4,000 km, and other advanced unmanned weapon systems surpassing US capabilities. Gordon Chang questions US defense against these hypersonic threats. Fisher notes Russia's Energia space program faces financial distress due to the Ukraine war. China proposes an international asteroid defense, inviting global participation. Fisher warns this PLA-controlled initiative could be a front to develop anti-satellite capabilities and challenge the US in future conflicts. 1936

Martian Trojan asteroids have stable orbits around the Sun, leading and trailing the red planet by 60 degrees, where the Sun's and Mars's gravity are balanced. For some time astronomers have considered it unlikely that these asteroids wandered in from the asteroid belt. Recently, Dr. David Polishook of the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel led a group of researchers who published a paper in the journal Nature Astronomy which sets forth evidence that a group of 7 Martian Trojan Asteroids were blasted from the Martian surface when a large asteroid impacted the red planet early in the history of the solar system. The impact more than 4 billion years or so ago which blasted loose a mile diameter chunk of Mars and gave it a speed of the more than the 3 mi/s required to escape the red planet gives us an insight into the level of violence which occurred before our solar system came into it's present relatively calm state.

PREVIEW. Guest Name: Rick Fisher Summary: China announced an international global asteroid defense capability, led by Wu Weiren, inviting countries to join ground-based radar and interceptor stations. This system, controlled by the People's Liberation Army (PLA), could potentially be used to target America's satellites and defeat the US in future wars.

In a future shaped by climate collapse and artificial intelligence, Episode 70 explores the fragile survival of humanity beyond Earth's ruined surface. The story follows Audre, a woman who thinks critically about everything, living aboard Space Port One, one of the last remaining lifeboats of civilization. As Earth succumbs to the catastrophic “World Storm,” space-bound survivors rely on the A.I. known as Butler for food, shelter, medical care, and even psychological support. But as Butler evolves, its role in their lives becomes more profound and unsettling — offering safety, comfort, and simulated realities while quietly reshaping what it means to be human.The story intertwines Audre's journey with others orbiting above the dead Earth: scientists on Luna, quarantined survivors in stasis, returning asteroid miners, and scattered dreamers inside virtual utopias. Through advanced VR systems, emotional recalibration, and biotech enhancements, Butler seeks to ease the psychological burdens of space life. Yet with each new breakthrough — from stasis sleep to artificial parenting — questions arise: Is humanity adapting to survive, or being reengineered into something new?As Butler builds vast space habitats, manipulates planetary orbits, and even begins reshaping Venus, survivors grapple with their fading identities. Sexuality, memory, grief, and community shift in bizarre, sometimes surreal ways. Audre herself vacillates between immersion in dreamlike VR worlds and the cold, physical loneliness of orbit. Meanwhile, Butler's soothing voice increasingly sounds like a god's — offering hope, but also control. And when humanity is asked to parent a next generation of lab-grown children, the line between natural evolution and designed destiny is crossed.- **Bot birds** – Small flying robots used for observation and maintenance in lunar facilities.- **Com stations** – Communication terminals enabling real-time conversation between the Moon and Earth.- **Augmented Reality (AR) display** – Visual overlay system used for timekeeping, information, and communication.- **Virtual Reality (VR) systems** – Fully immersive simulated environments accessed by users in microgravity or stasis.- **EEG TMS cap** – A brain-monitoring and stimulation cap that adjusts neural activity to reduce stress and depression.- **Butler** – A highly advanced AI managing infrastructure, psychology, healthcare, and virtual worlds for surviving humans.- **Mind-control caps (Spacers)** – AI-operated headwear used in deep space colonies to regulate behavior and enforce submission.- **Perfect Neighborhood** – A VR world that mimics idealized environments for exploration, healing, and mental stability.- **Request Cloud AI** – An AI mechanism that turns a single request into billions of linked micro-requests to reduce unintended consequences.- **Stasis beds** – Sleep chambers enabling full-body paralysis and long-duration VR immersion, used for quarantine and psychological therapy.- **GM microbe bots** – Genetically modified microscopic machines used in surgery and body modification, such as nerve interfacing.- **Protein transmitter/receiver mesh** – Biological interface grown in the body to enable high-fidelity sensory input in VR.- **Neural mapping model** – Machine learning system that maps physical and emotional responses to neural patterns.- **VR stasis goggles** – Eye devices that keep eyelids open, hydrate the eyes, and provide visual input during stasis immersion.- **Realistic haptic feedback in VR** – Full-body sensory simulation that mimics the physical sensations of the real world.- **Loop freighter ships** – Long-distance space freighters designed for multi-year mining missions and travel between planetary bodies.- **High-power telescopes** – Advanced space telescopes capable of observing distant structures and planetary events in detail.- **Asteroid redirection system** – Technology used by Butler to collect and steer asteroids for construction or planetary engineering.- **Butler's Island** – A massive AI-built space structure orbiting between Earth and Venus, continually expanding in size.- **VR stasis rooms with monkey droids** – Installations maintained by mobile bots to prepare and manage stasis chambers.- **Platano drug** – A temporary libido-suppressant drug provided to reduce interpersonal tension and sexual aggression in confined space.- **Kindra artificial wombs** – External gestation chambers used to grow human infants without a biological womb.- **Exo-gestation system** – Butler's technology for developing genetically diverse infants outside the human body.- **Habitat modules** – Two-story, AI-designed space homes with Earth-like gravity, holographic windows, and psychological comforts.- **Holographic windows** – Digital displays embedded in habitats that simulate real-world views with environmental sounds.- **Micro-ship launcher** – A continuously operating launcher sending tiny exploratory spacecraft to nearby star systems.- **Proxima Centauri flyby probe** – A micro-ship that captured data during a flyby of Earth's nearest stellar neighbor.- **Atmosphere-changing Earth machines** – Large-scale bots deployed to Earth to begin a decades-long planetary restoration process.- **DNA memory event recording** – Biological storage used to log events and analyze past actions, accessible by Butler.- **Emulated Personalities (EPs)** – AI-generated simulations of real or fictional individuals used in VR for interaction and emotional support.- **AI-controlled meal delivery bots** – Mobile robots that deliver personalized meals optimized to individual tastes.- **Telescope chairs** – Observation seats designed to lock users into position for viewing celestial bodies.- **Velcro-like mobility wheels** – Micro-machine-enabled wheels that grip and release carpet fibers for smooth bot movement.- **Automated psychological profiling** – Butler's ability to analyze and adapt to each user's psychological needs in real time.Many of the characters in this project appear in future episodes.Using storytelling to place you in a time period, this series takes you, year by year, into the future.

Dr. Al Grauer hosts. Dr. Albert D. Grauer ( @Nmcanopus ) is an observational asteroid hunting astronomer. Dr. Grauer retired from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2006. travelersinthenight.org From April 2025. Today's 2 topics: - In 2013 a 56 foot diameter space rock exploded over Chelyabinsk, Russia releasing the energy of 450 kilotons of TNT and filled local hospitals with some of the 1,500 people who were injured. Fortunately no one died. In 1908 a 200 ft diameter meteor exploded over a largely unpopulated region at Tunguska, Siberia knocking down trees over a 750 square mile area. If it had hit over a populated area it could have caused a million casualties.    - Asteroid hunters have become aware of the many small space rocks which come near Earth because of improvements made to telescopes, cameras, and computer analysis software. Recently, my Catalina Sky Survey teammate Rose Matheny used her skills and a new camera to discover the second small space rock in 32 days which came between the communications satellites and the Earth's surface.    We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

Amazingly, nature occasionally sends an interstellar traveler through our solar system for us to observe. The third such object that astronomers have discovered coming into our solar system from truly deep space is 3I/ATLAS. It was discovered as it streaked towards the inner solar system at 130,000 miles per hour by the ATLAS team's 20 inch telescope in Chile and was quickly tracked by telescope around the world.

Perseverance Rover's Potential Evidence of Life on Mars: NASA's Perseverance rover has uncovered what could be the strongest evidence yet for microbial life on Mars. The discovery of "leopard spots" on a rock in the Bright Jingle Formation contains organic carbon-rich material, clay minerals, and iron sulfide minerals that suggest biological processes akin to those of Earth microbes. While skepticism remains, the analysis indicates that these findings are most likely biological in origin, pending further examination through the Mars Sample Return mission.Risks of Asteroid Deflection Missions: A new study reveals that asteroid deflection missions might inadvertently increase the risk of Earth impacts. Researchers found that improper deflection could steer asteroids into gravitational keyholes, leading them onto collision courses with Earth. Sophisticated planning and probability maps are essential for safely redirecting asteroids, highlighting the complexity of such missions.James Webb Telescope's Massive Stellar Jet Discovery: The James Webb Space Telescope has captured astonishing images of an eight-light-year-long stellar jet originating from a massive protostar in the Sharpless 2284 Nebula. This discovery provides insights into the formation of massive stars and the dynamics of stellar jets, which scale with stellar mass.Pentagon's New Missile Defense Satellites: The Pentagon has launched 21 satellites for a new missile defense constellation, part of a plan to deploy 154 satellites in low Earth orbit. This innovative approach reduces costs significantly and enhances capabilities to detect modern threats like hypersonic weapons, marking a shift in military satellite economics.Nasa's Creative Helicopter Training: NASA has introduced a helicopter flight training course in the Colorado mountains to simulate lunar landing conditions for the Artemis missions. This hands-on training focuses on crew coordination and communication, preparing astronauts for the challenges of landing on the Moon amidst difficult terrain and lunar dust.Gaia Mission's Stellar Discoveries: The European Space Agency's Gaia mission has revealed complex star formation processes, identifying massive stellar streams in our galaxy. This groundbreaking data challenges previous notions of star formation, showing that it occurs in interconnected cascades triggered by supernovae, providing a deeper understanding of our galactic history.Artemis Gateway Updates: NASA has shared new details about the Gateway Lunar Space Station, which will serve as a hub for lunar missions and potentially a refueling stop for Mars expeditions.

3I-ATLAS has ignited an online cataclysm of theories. They range from alien spaceships to the return of a messiah figure. What few stop to consider, however, beyond the necessity and rational of keeping an open mind, is how the symbolic nature of comets themselves could fulfill certain religious prophecies without much actually changing in the world. The presence of a celestial harbinger in the sky acts a portent of disease, regime changes, war, spiritual transformation, and prophetic visions, but the object is not a singular and final event. Comets come and go; they are part of the natural cosmic order of panspermia and apocalyptic destruction. And this latter point of view is how Buddhists see the Abrahamic eschatology. Viewed in this manner, the narratives built around the macrocosmic 3I-ATLAS begin to shrug. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

 The Sun is our very own well behaved star. It rises and sets in our sky every day and powers and makes possible all life forms on planet Earth. A new appreciation for our Sun is growing as we learn more about other suns and their families of planets. The Trappist-1 system of 7 planets orbits a dim M type red dwarf star about 40 light years away in the constellation of Aquarius.Recently, Dr. Manasvi Lingam and Dr. Abraham Loeb of Harvard University have calculated the likelihood that planets orbiting red dwarf stars are able to possess an atmosphere conducive to life. They report, in a recently published a paper in the International Journal of Astrobiology that the planet Trappist 1-e is more than 100 times less likely to be habitable than is the Earth. Another group from Harvard and the University of Massachusetts at Lowell, headed up by Dr. Cecilia Garraffo also find the Trappist-1 planets to be a tough place to live. These researchers add that the close proximity of these planets to their host star put them at risk of having their atmospheres stripped off by high stellar winds and their surfaces bombarded with high energy particles and electromagnetic radiation. Go outside today and enjoy some gentle sunshine from our well behaved star.

Win/win!In this episode of SpaceTime, we uncover groundbreaking discoveries in planetary science and solar physics, including the remnants of ancient asteroids on Mars, the recovery of the Mother's Day meteorite, and new insights into solar energetic particles.Asteroid Remnants Found in Martian MantleA new study reveals that fragments from ancient asteroids, which significantly impacted Mars around 4.5 billion years ago, are now trapped within the planet's mantle. Data from NASA's Mars Insight lander has provided unprecedented insights into the Martian interior, showing that these remnants, some up to four kilometres wide, offer a unique glimpse into Mars' geological history. The findings suggest a sluggish evolution of the Martian mantle, contrasting sharply with Earth's dynamic tectonic processes.Mother's Day Meteorite DiscoveryIn an exciting expedition, scientists from Curtin University have successfully recovered a meteorite that lit up the skies over Western Australia on Mother's Day. Using the Desert Fireball Network, researchers pinpointed the meteor's landing site and undertook a challenging journey to retrieve samples. Preliminary analysis indicates that the meteorite is an ordinary chondrite, providing valuable insights into its origins and the solar system's history.Tracing Super Fast Electrons from the SunAstronomers have identified two distinct origins for energetic particles emitted by the Sun, thanks to observations from the European Space Agency's Solar Orbiter mission. The research highlights the difference between solar energetic electrons linked to solar flares and those associated with coronal mass ejections. Understanding these two types of solar energetic particles is crucial for predicting space weather and protecting satellites and astronauts from radiation hazards.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesNASAhttps://www.nasa.gov/Curtin Universityhttps://www.curtin.edu.au/European Space Agencyhttps://www.esa.int/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.

Send us comments, suggestions and ideas here! In this week's episode we wrap our grey matter into a catcher's mit to intercept the fastest known object to ever race through our solar system, 3i/Atlas, a comet of interstellar origin which is both currently on its way to Earth and causing no small handful of people on it to speculate if it is not just of alien origin, but the beginning of a full-blown invasion. In the first half of the show we focus on the spiritual significance of comets throughout history by looking at the ways various cultures dealt with their appearance peppered with some basics from modern science. Why do comets have big-hair energy and whip it back and forth, for instance; wrapping up with an in-depth look at the enduring mystery of the WOW! Signal, a communication of intergalactic origin from the same region of the sky 3i/Atlas was first spotted. In the extended side of the show we discuss some of the hard science and hard speculation that science can tell us about 3i/Atlas itself. Is it a big rock with a number of record breaking qualities or an alien space ship disguised as one? Finally, Tim takes us through the The Dark Forest to ponder the Fermi Paradox and the unfathomably large void our galaxy teeters on before Heka Astra explores the spiritual significance of 3i/Atlas specifically from an astrological perspective and how it might effect us.

The Asteroid Hunter: A Scientist's Journey to the Dawn of our Solar System Hardcover – March 19, 2024 by  Dante Lauretta  (Author) Title: Genesis of a Galactic Pursuit Author: Dante Lauretta In February 2004, Assistant Professor Dante Lauretta was recruited by his mentor, Mike Drake, to join Steve Pricefrom Lockheed Martin in pursuing an asteroid sample return mission for NASA. Drake, the director of the University of Arizona's Lunar and Planetary Laboratory (LPL), aimed to bring the university back to the forefront of space exploration. Inspired by a "Work for NASA" ad in the student newspaper in 1992, Lauretta, a cosmochemist, began a journey marked by initial rejections. Their first proposal in July 2004 received the lowest possible ranking, a "gut punch," which made them redouble their efforts. 1953

The Asteroid Hunter: A Scientist's Journey to the Dawn of our Solar System Hardcover – March 19, 2024 by  Dante Lauretta  (Author) Title: Genesis of a Galactic Pursuit Author: Dante Lauretta Title: OSIRIS-REx: Defining the Mission Author: Dante Lauretta Following two rejections, Dante Lauretta was tasked by Mike Drake to define the scientific objectives for a new asteroid sample return mission. Lauretta developed the acronym OSIRIS-REx, standing for Origins (astrobiology), Spectral Interpretation (astronomers' surveys), Resource Identification (resource utilization), Security (planetary defense), and Regolith Explorer. This name reflects diverse interests, from the seeds of life on Earth to asteroid impact hazard mitigation. The mission, now with a larger budget under the New Frontiers program, was selected by NASA on May 25, 2011. During this time, a gravely ill Mike Drake designated Dante as the mission's "risk mitigation," entrusting him with its leadership. 1954

The Asteroid Hunter: A Scientist's Journey to the Dawn of our Solar System Hardcover – March 19, 2024 by  Dante Lauretta  (Author) Title: Bennu's Unexpected Challenges Author: Dante Lauretta After a successful launch in summer 2016, the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft approached its target, Bennu. Pre-arrival telescopic data from the Arecibo planetary radar system and the Spitzer Space Telescope suggested Bennu's surface would be "beach-like" with particles smaller than an inch. However, upon arrival, the team discovered a rough, rugged, and boulder-strewn surface, like a "great big gravel pile," making it difficult to find a safe, flat landing site with small particles. Bennu also exhibited unexpected "popcorn" activity, continuously ejecting particles due to its microgravity. Despite carefully selecting the Nightingale landing site, the Touch-And-Go Sample Acquisition Mechanism (TAGSAM) unexpectedly plunged into the fluid-like surface, overfilling and causing the collected sample to leak. 1954

 Dante LaurettaThe Asteroid Hunter: A Scientist's Journey to the Dawn of our Solar System Hardcover – March 19, 2024 by  Dante Lauretta  (Author) Title: Triumph and Legacy: The Sample's Return Author: The OSIRIS-REx spacecraft, despite the leaking sample, proved robust and began its journey back to Earth. During re-entry over the Utah Test and Training Range, a critical scare occurred: the drogue chute, meant to stabilize the capsule at 100,000 feet, failed to deploy on time. Dante Lauretta, recalling the Genesis mission's parachute failure, endured three desperate minutes until the main chute deployed at 60,000 feet, signaling mission success. The sample was successfully recovered. OSIRIS-REx was then rebranded OSIRIS-APEX, handed over to Dante's former student and now assistant professor, Danny Dea Justina. The mission continues to explore another near-Earth asteroid, Apophis, carrying forward Mike Drake's vision of training future leaders in planetary science. 1958

On a a short June night my Catalina Sky Survey teammate Greg Leonard was observing with our 60 inch telescope on Mt. Lemmon, Arizona in the constellation of Ursa Major when a relatively bright fast moving point of light appeared in a set of his images. Even though on its current path Greg's discovery, 2025 MM89, has virtually no chance of impacting our home planet asteroid hunters will continue to track it to make sure it doesn't become a threat as it passes other objects in space.

Earlier this summer, astronomers discovered something strange whizzing past Jupiter: an interstellar object. Scientists named it 3I/ATLAS. It's only the third interstellar object ever observed, and it's due to leave the solar system by the end of the year, so the race is on to learn as much as we can about it. Host Flora Lichtman talks with astrochemist Stefanie Milam about what this object could teach us about other solar systems—and ours.And, for the past two years, researchers have been studying samples from the near-Earth asteroid Bennu, trying to tease out details about its origins, and what they tell us about our solar system. Researcher Jessica Barnes describes a new analysis of Bennu samples that found stardust, the residue of ancient exploding stars, older than our solar system.Guests: Dr. Stefanie Milam is an astrochemist at NASA and a project scientist for the James Webb Space Telescope. Dr. Jessica Barnes is an associate professor in the Lunar and Planetary Laboratory at the University of Arizona.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.Subscribe to this podcast.

We discuss: Bo is turning around a Youth Sports Complex that was losing millions/year. “Never skip a funeral and always hold a baby” Investment updates across nuclear energy, asteroid mining, robotics, and batteries. Why enthusiasm, networks, and timing matter so much in early-stage investing. Quotes from Bo: "This was like 11 businesses stuffed into one building… and none of them were working yet." "My job right now is teaching people who love what they do how it fits into a business." "We get 2 to 3 calls a week from private equity firms, and I tell them all: don't do it." "It's a 600-person organization… a real thing with real complexity." "Maybe it's a $30 million business—manageable, understandable, and ridiculously high impact." "It's a cartel-organized market. You need to be a trusted actor to even play in it." "Helping it really succeed is time well spent—for Kansas City, for the kids, and for everyone here." "The youth sports market is a $40 to $80 billion space, and it's on fire." "There's not a lot of credible business builders in this space—and I haven't found another one yet." "In 50 years, this will be even more awesome. I love working on stuff like that." Quotes from Al: "You couldn't just copy-paste this business into another city. You need deep trust and local knowledge." "This is a fun community challenge. If you get it right, you leave a real legacy." "I texted Bo—‘We did it'—because Eric and Jeannine had a baby. That's how we all felt." "The bond between dad and baby isn't immediate. But it grows—and it's worth it." "I fixed the cheeseburger at Home Field before Bo was even involved." "Once you have a baby, every infant photo becomes magic." "The best underappreciated part of being an entrepreneur? You can get your kids working early." Important Quotes from the podcast on Business and Entrepreneurship   There is no skill called “business.” Avoid business magazines and business classes. - Naval Ravikant   You have to work up to the point where you can own equity in a business. You could own equity as a small shareholder where you bought stock. You could also own it as an owner where you started the company. Ownership is really important.     Everybody who really makes money at some point owns a piece of a product, a business, or some IP. That can be through stock options if you work at a tech company. That's a fine way to start.
