I speak with Johnathan Jarecki, undergraduate science student and host of The Signal Podcast, on all things photobiology. We discuss the full solar spectrum and how ultraviolet, visible, blue, red and near-infrared light each affect human physiology, including the POMC pathway, nitric oxide and blood pressure, and the evidence on sunlight, skin cancer and the vitamin D paradox. We also discuss how artificial light at night suppresses melatonin and disrupts the circadian control of DNA repair, cardiovascular health, and metabolism.

This is a practical conversation on circadian living — how to structure your day around light, darkness, food, movement and sleep in a way that supports your biology. We also explore the modern mismatch of indoor LED lighting, artificial light at night, late eating, phone use before bed, blue blockers, beeswax candles, incandescent light, night driving, flicker, skin cancer nuance, sun exposure, DHA, omega-3s and the deeper philosophical implications of living in rhythm with nature.

Quyết định tăng lương tối thiểu năm 2026 của Ủy ban Công bằng Việc làm (FWC) đang châm ngòi cho một cuộc tranh luận nảy lửa xuyên suốt các tầng lớp xã hội Úc. Với mức tăng 4.75%, đưa mức lương chuẩn lên $26$ AUD/giờ, chính sách này không đơn thuần là những con số khô khan trên bàn nghị sự, mà là một bài toán cân não đầy kịch tính giữa việc bảo vệ túi tiền của người lao động trước bão giá và giữ vững bánh đà tăng trưởng kinh tế vĩ mô. Liệu đây có phải là chiếc phao cứu sinh kịp thời, hay sẽ là ngòi nổ kích hoạt vòng xoáy lạm phát khó kiểm soát? Người lao động có vui được lâu khi chủ sử dụng lao động gặp khó khăn?
After questioning the catalyst behind the the blandest couple to ever cause a scandal on Bravo, as seen in Summer House Reunion Part 1 , we dive into recapping episodes 8 and 9 of the Real Housewives of Rhode Island. In episode 8 we see Alicia and her baggie of crackers weather Billy's pressure to overcome her driving anxiety, Kelsey setting up her new apartment while pondering her life and finances, Ashley again hoping Jared trades coffees for content, Jo-Ellen confronting her callous mother about her childhood (FYI I go TF off) , and Rosie's fixation on Kelsey's square footage comments and lifestyle derail their halfhearted efforts to connect. Episode 9 brought so much chaos and joy it ranks off the scales for classic episodes. Alicia finally confronts Billy about her stake in Pizza Mamma, but still can't bring herself to show Rulla the video, and I get the giggles watching the women fight and mock each other in the midst of a trivia game at Aud(b)rey's.

US equities surged to record highs on optimism over a potential US–Iran ceasefire extension, with the S&P 500, Nasdaq, and Russell 2000 all closing at all-time highs yesterday. Oil prices fell sharply and are on track for their steepest monthly decline since March 2020. US economic data was mixed, pointing to slowing growth and increasing pressure on household finances. Technology remained the primary market driver, with strong gains in AI and tech stocks contrasting with weak momentum in Bitcoin. Tim Gagie, Head of FX Advisory Geneva, highlights gold being at critical levels, the continued attractiveness of the AUD, and persistently low FX volatility.(00:00) - Introduction: Helen Freer, Product & Investment Content (00:28) - Markets wrap-up: Lucija Caculovic, Product & Investment Content (06:11) - FX & metals update: Tim Gagie, Head of FX/PM PB Geneva (09:41) - Closing remarks: Helen Freer, Product & Investment Content Would you like to support this show?

Today we read, This is Not My Hat, by Jon Klassen.
In this Tough Girl Podcast EXTRA episode, we catch up with Helen Dainty — solo female cyclist, self-described "full-time global hobo," and one of the most committed long-distance bike travellers you'll ever meet. For the past decade, Helen has spent nine years on the road, travelling exclusively by bicycle and living on around £50 a week. She's cycled across Australia, ridden from London to Nordkapp and back, travelled extensively through the Middle East and North Africa — and in 2025 became the first woman to cycle across Libya. When war in Sudan forced her to abandon an overland route into East Africa, Helen adapted and rerouted — because that's what life on the road demands: flexibility, resilience, and the ability to trust the process. In this episode, we dive into what's happened since we last spoke in January 2022. From navigating complex visa systems (including Algeria and Libya), to travelling with police security details, being detained in Libya, and accepting incredible hospitality through the Warm Showers community — Helen shares the raw, practical realities of long-term cycle touring. We also talk about: The logistics of visas with a British passport Working with visa agents and last-minute plan changes Cycling in Algeria and Libya Budget travel (sticking to AUD $100 per week) Her bike setup — switching from chain to belt drive Schwalbe Marathon Plus tyres and long-distance reliability Not collecting souvenirs and living with less Documenting her journey on YouTube (and the time spent editing!) Saying yes to unexpected opportunities Helen also opens up about going through perimenopause and menopause while cycling through deserts — dealing with extreme sadness, brain fog, hot sweats in the middle of the night, and coming out the other side feeling stronger and more balanced. At 47, she believes she has another strong decade of adventure ahead — and she's not slowing down. Looking forward, Helen plans to spend the next two years cycling down the west coast of Africa in an attempt to circle the continent, before eventually heading back towards Australia through Asia. Her advice for women wanting to do something different? Say yes to the opportunity — you can work out the details on the way. Accept without hesitation. Raw, honest, practical and deeply inspiring — this is a powerful catch-up with a woman who has built her entire life around two wheels. *** New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)!

The latest internet drama centering on a woman's outfit is all about Olivia Rodrigo. As she promotes her highly anticipated third album, her signature baby doll dresses have riled people up online, but is it actual outrage, or a case of genius PR rage bait? This week, Tam and Lucinda are unpacking the fashion psychology behind the headlines, alongside the return of a highly controversial early-2000s shoe that millennials know and love in their little millennial hearts (yes, the Valentino Rockstud is officially back). Plus, they look at how the tides have completely shifted with secondhand shopping. Vintage has moved from an alternative fallback to the ultimate status symbol, bringing a whole new meaning to "fashion currency." And move over "dopamine dressing", "cortisol dressing" is the new low-impact trend your wardrobe needs right now.

Most high-achieving women in business are running on one energy and calling it a strategy. Either everything is controlled, systematised and forceful and creativity has quietly left the building. Or everything is inspired and fluid and nothing is consistent enough to compound. This episode is about what's actually underneath both patterns, why your business needs masculine and feminine energy in equal measure and what it looks like to build a container strong enough that you can finally stop holding everything together yourself and start creating something worth building.In This EpisodeWhy masculine and feminine are energies not genders and why that distinction matters for how you run your businessThe two patterns I see most often in high-achieving women: hyper-masculine and hyper-feminine, and what each one is actually costing youWhy the structure in your business is the masculine, the container that makes the feminine possible and what that looks like practicallyWhat happens to creativity when you are in control of everything, and why the most inspired thinking requires you to relinquish some of that controlWhy flow without structure doesn't build a business, it builds a beautiful messWhat your masculine container actually looks like in a service-based business: systems, automation, onboarding, sales processes, financial trackingWhy business doesn't have to be forceful and what it looks like when it's built more like a garden than a construction projectHow to diagnose which energy is running your business right now and what to do about itContinue the ConversationJoin The Lounge Free community with resources, conversations, and tools for women building powerful businesses.Explore Women That Sell My flagship program for women scaling their businesses with integrity and modern sales.Download Why People Watch But Never Buy The 22-minute audio training + Content Conversion Audit. $37 AUD.Follow Riley on Instagram Daily thoughts and behind-the-scenes on business, sales, and everything in between.Follow Women That Sell on Instagram Sales insights, content strategy and lessons on buyer psychology.Book Riley for Speaking or Podcast Interviews For guest speaking, collaborations or podcast interviews.

In this episode of the Tough Girl Podcast, we meet Chloe Stead — 42 years old and currently living in a rustic tiny shack in the bush in Tasmania with her husband — but her journey to this simple life has been anything but ordinary. Since 2008, Chloe has been living a travelling, nomadic lifestyle. After leaving school at 18 to join the Navy and later working in health and safety in Perth, Australia, she reached a quiet breaking point while staying at the Whim Creek Hotel in 2006. A simple but powerful thought surfaced: There has to be more to life than this. Within a week, she sold her house, packed up a shipping container, took her dog, and began driving solo around Australia with just $500 AUD — despite being petrified of sleeping in a tent. That leap of faith set the course for the next chapter of her life. But Chloe's story is not just about adventure — it's about grief, reinvention, and learning to live on her own terms. After the sudden death of her partner Willy in 2013, everything stopped. In the depths of grief, Chloe stepped away from social media, let go of her old life, and slowly began again. Meditation, yoga retreats, and eventually walking the Camino de Santiago in 2014 became turning points. Carrying everything on her back, she discovered a deep love for minimalism, simplicity, and self-reliance. Over the years, Chloe has: Walked multiple Caminos including the Camino del Norte, Camino Primitivo and Via de la Plata Hitchhiked and walked along the beaches of Uruguay Taken a 10,000km road trip with her dog Dexter Lived off less than $100 AUD per week Worked seasonally to fund months of adventure Cycled from Alaska to San Francisco (86 nights in a tent!) Walked the Wales Coast Path and the Portuguese Camino Chosen to stay off social media to be fully present on trail Now married, Chloe continues to design a life built around freedom, movement, and intentional simplicity. With big adventures planned for 2026 — including walking the South West Coast Path and the GR10 — she shares honestly about navigating partnership on trail, managing knee issues, strength training gains, and why getting to the start line is often the hardest part. This conversation is about: Letting go of possessions and expectations Living with uncertainty Processing grief through movement Creating "trail life" off-trail Why you don't need technology to experience adventure Trusting that the universe conspires to keep you going And why you should "give it a crack and get to the start line." Chloe's message is simple but powerful: Life is uncertain. Don't put things off. If there's something you want to do — take the plunge. *** New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)!

Final words of advice for other women who want to live life differently and live life on their own terms Life is pretty uncertain, and definitely our time here is uncertain. Don't put things off to the future. If there's something that you want to do, take the plunge. The universe conspires to keep you going Learning to live with less over the years and how money has become more abundant Working for 6/7 months of the year, and 1 month of earnings goes towards her future Living off less than $100 AUD a week Stopping working after earning $20,000 dollars and coming back to a $3,000 dollar tax cheque Give it a crack - get to the start line.

Tehran is studying the American text and has not yet submitted its response, Al Arabiya reported citing sources."Pakistan's mediation efforts between US and Iran are at a crucial stage where efforts are underway to secure an agreement or a framework for comprehensive talks which can eventually lead to a ‘deal',"** according to journalist Mallick.European bourses are broadly higher despite disappointing PMIs; US equity futures are flat after NVDA sales guidance disappointed.

In this week's news roundup, the team unpacks Zillow's antitrust lawsuit against Compass and MRED, plus Q3 financial results from REA Group, Realtor.com and Rightmove.Chapters:00:00 Intro01:17 Zillow Sues Compass & MRED22:13 REA Group Q3 2026 Results30:28 Realtor.com Q1 Renaissance41:04 Rightmove Market UpdateZillow Sues Compass & MREDZillow has filed an antitrust lawsuit against Compass and Midwest Real Estate Data (MRED), alleging the two conspired to threaten Zillow's access to listings in Chicagoland if it enforced its listing standards. Harvey, Simon and Ed dig into the philosophical seller-choice vs buyer-information divide, Zillow's spiralling legal costs ($20m incremental in Q2 alone), and why this is the latest sign that agents and brokerages worldwide are starting to push back against portal power.REA Group Q3 2026 ResultsREA Group posted $398m AUD revenue (+6% YoY) and $220m EBITDA (+11% YoY) at a 55.3% margin. But REA India had a disappointing quarter and is starting to look like a soft exit. The team discusses whether owning multiple portals across multiple countries is anything more than a PowerPoint dream, and what Australia's new tax regime around negative gearing means for transaction volumes.Realtor.com - Renaissance Or PE Sale?News Corp CEO Robert Thompson hailed a "renaissance" at Realtor.com - revenues up 10% to $148m USD, 261m monthly visits, 31% portal visit share. Ed wonders whether the unusually effusive CEO commentary is a signal News Corp is teeing the asset up for a private-equity sale.Rightmove Market UpdateRightmove held 8-10% revenue growth guidance and pointed to 2,500 technology releases, 43 live AI initiatives, and LLM referral traffic still under 0.5% (flat since end of 2025). Simon and Harvey debate whether the AI doom narrative is overcooked, or whether traffic is leaking to smaller agents instead of the portals.Presented by:Edmund Keith - https://www.linkedin.com/in/edmund-keith/Harvey Hancock - https://www.linkedin.com/in/harvey-hancock/Simon Baker - https://www.linkedin.com/in/stbaker/

Medicaid Managed Care Plan Alignment With State Substance Use Disorder Treatment Coverage Requirements The Milbank Quarterly Medicaid managed plan coverage for medications for alcohol use disorders (AUD) and opioid use disorder (OUD) varies across states but is generally lower in Republican-leaning states. Researchers conducted a national survey to evaluate if these differences in coverage were due to variation in state policy or variations in Medicaid managed plan alignment with state policy. Researchers found that while Republican-leaning states were generally a little less likely to require coverage of most or all medications for AUD and OUD and place limits on prior authorization, managed plans in Republican-leaning states were much less likely to follow state requirements. Given these findings, efforts to increase access to medications for AUD and OUD will need to address misalignment between managed care plans and state policy, and not just focus on making changes to state policy.
