Hey friends, Chase here This episode is short and direct — and it's built around a question I think most of us care about more than we admit: what actually makes a great friend? Friendship is often treated as something casual. Easy. Automatic. But as life gets fuller — work, family, responsibility, distraction — the quality of our friendships can quietly slip into something surface-level. Not because we don't care, but because we stop being intentional about how we show up. What I've learned is that great friendships aren't defined by history or proximity. They're defined by behavior. Being a great friend isn't about always having the right words or fixing someone's problems. It's about presence. Courage. And a willingness to show up in ways that actually matter — even when it's uncomfortable. Here's the core idea: Great friendships aren't built on convenience — they're built on intention. That intention shows up in a few specific ways. In the courage to be vulnerable instead of polished. In choosing shared growth over staying comfortable. And in offering real, actionable support instead of vague good intentions. One of the biggest differences between casual friends and lifelong ones is the kinds of conversations you're willing to have — and the kinds of moments you're willing to share. Depth doesn't happen by accident. It happens when someone goes first. This episode is about closing that gap. About turning "let me know if you need anything" into actually showing up. About asking better questions. About becoming the kind of friend you'd want to have in your own corner. In today's episode I cover: Why vulnerability is the foundation of real friendship How shared growth experiences deepen connection What it looks like to offer meaningful, specific support If you've been thinking about the people who matter most in your life, this episode is an invitation — not to do more, but to show up differently. And to remember that the strongest friendships are built through small, intentional acts done consistently over time. Until next time, show up with intention — and be the kind of friend you'd want in your own corner.

Most people think they fail because they lack discipline. That is false. They fail because their environment is perfectly designed to pull them off course. In this episode, Jim breaks down why willpower always loses, how default settings quietly dictate outcomes, and why 2026 must be engineered, not hoped for. If you want success to feel automatic instead of exhausting, this episode gives you the blueprint.

Mark Followill and Brian Dameris stop by Studio 41 to breakdown this past rollercoaster of a week for the Mavericks. The guys reflect back on Cooper Flagg's first NBA games as an 18-year old and ask the question if he can be an All-Star this year? They also get into how Naji Marshall has been Mr. Automatic in the paint and how the team has been leaning on Brandon Williams in the clutch.

The time has finally arrived. Twelve regular season games, and the conference championship games, have all led up to this point. After all of the questions, debate, anger and anxiety; the first round of the College Football Playoff begins Friday! The excitement gets started with ninth-seeded Alabama visiting eighth-seeded Oklahoma. A rematch from the regular season in which the Sooners came out on top. Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey discuss the matchup and what they think both teams need to do to come out victorious. Then, they take a look at another big-time matchup that will see tenth-seeded Miami visit seventh-seeded Texas A&M. They discuss the quick turnaround A&M has made under Mike Elko and how Miami can come away victorious. Also, Godfrey discusses the Group of Five teams deserving a spot in the Playoff and Ross looks at the fourteen coaches who will be coaching in the Playoff despite having accepted a different coaching job for next season. Then, Ross talks about a story he wrote last year that is coming back to light. The current CFP agreement states that in the 2026 season, the Power 4 conference champions will be guaranteed a spot in the field. It also stated that a Top-12 ranked Notre Dame would automatically get a bid. This overlooked and forgotten caveat has become the topic of much debate. The crew discusses its impact and what may come of this agreement if the Playoff is expanded to 16 teams. They also dive into the NFL's impact on the CFP and why some of the premiere college games this weekend are not in the premiere time slots.Later, it's time for I've Got A Feeling. You get double the picks today as the guys not only pick games for this weekend, but they also pick who they think will be crowned National Champion. Alabama, Miami and Montana State are the favorites for the weekend. Meanwhile, two Big Ten teams and one SEC team are chosen to win it all!Get ready for the College Football Playoff with College Football Enquirer.0:00:00 - Alabama vs. Oklahoma CFP preview17:14 - Miami vs. Texas A&M CFP preview24:21 - CFP Coaches who are leaving their team30:40 - Automatic bids changing for future CFPs47:53 - How the NFL impacts the CFP54:17 - I've Got A Feeling59:53 - I've Got A Feeling National Champ edition Subscribe to the College Football Enquirer on your favorite podcast app:
Chris's SummaryJim and I are joined by Jake Turner as we cover the Math Act and a set of shorter EDU topics Jim has been collecting. We start with an SSA-44 update, including listener and client feedback on submitting the IRMAA redetermination form online through an SSA.gov account. Jake explains how IRS “math error” notices work today, why they're often vague, and what the new law requires for clearer explanations and response deadlines. Jim then walks through the Automatic IRA Act's proposals, including an annuity-style “protected lifetime income solution” requirement over certain balances, and we close with a quick way to sanity-check MYGA rates using AnnuityRateWatch's yield curve. Jim's “Pithy” SummaryChris and I are joined by Jake Turner as we bounce from Social Security admin housekeeping to Washington trying, yet again, to make the IRS act like it's talking to actual humans—starting with the Math Act. If you've ever opened one of those IRS letters that basically says “you owe us money” without showing you how they got there, you already know why this matters. Jake lays out what those notices are really doing behind the scenes, why clients forward them to preparers in a panic, and what the new requirements are supposed to force the IRS to include so you can actually understand what they're alleging and what happens if you don't respond. Then we pivot into the Automatic IRA Act, and I'll be honest: I'm less interested in the political theater than I am in what it signals. There's the small-business auto-enrollment concept—opt-out, no match requirement, and all that—and then there's the part that made me laugh out loud when I saw who was cheering it on. Once you cross a certain 401(k) balance, the proposal would require employers to offer a “protected lifetime income solution,” which is just a polite way of saying “annuities are trying to get a bigger seat at the 401(k) table.” That opens up all the practical questions: what counts, who defines it, and how this intersects with the slow drift of defined contribution plans trying to behave a little more like pensions. The post Math Act and Automatic IRA Act: EDU #2551 appeared first on The Retirement and IRA Show.

Eine weitere Lücke in unserem Reigen der Videotheken-Actionlieblingen wird gefüllt, endlich erhält auch der französische Ex-Soldat und Edelkicker Olivier Gruner seine eigene Folge. Gruner zog es in den 90ern und frühen 2000ern immer wieder zur Science-Fiction, und so würdigen wir sein Schaffen auch mit zwei entsprechenden Genrebeiträgen. Albert Pyuns "Nemesis" darf als vergleichsweise bekannt bezeichnet werden, "Automatic" von John Murlowski hingegen befindet sich nicht unbedingt auf dem Radar eines jeden B-Actionfans. Dies zu ändern ist eines der Anliegen dieser gutgelaunten Folge, zu der wir euch wie immer viel Spaß wünschen.Nachtküsse könnt ihr vergeben übernachtprogrammpodcast@gmail.comFolgt uns aufBluesky: @nachtprogramm.bsky.socialInstagramSergejs LetterboxMartins LetterboxUnd besucht:https://www.actionfreunde.de/https://liquid-love.de/forum/Music Intro: https://www.purple-planet.com

Fewer than 20% of women take part in cardiac rehabilitation (CR) programs, which is one of the most proven ways to recover and prevent another heart event Women who complete cardiac rehab lower their risk of hospitalization by up to 42% and reduce their risk of death from heart disease by as much as 58%, gaining both longer life and better quality of life Referral bias is a major reason for low participation — women are referred for cardiac rehab less often than men, and rates are even lower among Black, Hispanic, and Asian women, where participation averages just 10% to 12% Automatic referrals, flexible scheduling, home-based or hybrid options, and women-only programs are powerful, research-backed strategies that dramatically increase enrollment and completion rates Cardiac rehab isn't just exercise — it's a personalized recovery plan that rebuilds heart strength, lowers stress, and restores confidence, giving women a structured way to take back control of their health and their future

'Stop seeing everything so negatively." they say. But the cognitive behaviors underlying depression don't allow it. Let's talk about mental reactions and sticky patterns that outweigh false brightsides. Course!Workbook!Patreon Vid!summaryThis conversation delves into the cognitive basis of depression, focusing on how neural networks, memory games, language, cognitive inhibition inhibition, outdated working memory, and rumination contribute to depressive states. It explores the mechanisms behind cognitive depression, compassionate views for the state of human suffering, and offers strategies for managing depression through attention training and environmental changes.takeawaysNeural networks, schemas, and representations automatically shape our understanding of experiences.Even singular stimulation events can activate depressive schemas, limiting potential perceptions.Memory biases in depression lead to a resonating focus on negative experiences.Over generalized and explicit memories are unique experiences associated with depression.Cognitive inhibition is ironically inhibited during depression.Working memory cannot update with relevant material under depressive spells.Emotional regulation is hindered by cognitive control loss in depression.Rumination causes or exacerbates depression, anxiety, and PTSD due to a negative focus on the self.Automatic reckoning with the human condition may be the cause of many varieties of cognitive disorders.Training attention can redirect focus away from negativity.Ambiguous or negative social environments spark rumination which leads to depression.Changing environments and behaviors can help disrupt negative neural networks.Understanding the cognitive processes behind depression can bolster compassion and help deactivate negative schemas.keywordscognitive depression, memory bias, cognitive inhibition, working memory, overgeneralized memory, semantic memory, rumination, emotional regulation, reappraisal, self-doubt, neural networks

Contributor: Megan Hurley, MD Educational Pearls: Assess first: confirm the hook isn't near vital structures. Automatic subspecialty consult for eye involvement or proximity to carotid artery, radial artery, peritoneum, testicle, or urethra Barbed hook: cannot be pulled back through the entry without disengaging the barb Removal Techniques String-Pull: best for superficial, single-barbed hooks Depress shank and eye of hook to disengage barb and then pull string taut and jerk suddenly along the long axis Can only be used when the hook is in a body part that can be firmly secured so it won't move during the procedure Little or no anesthesia needed Push-Through & Snip: best choice when barb is near the skin surface Anesthetize first and advance the hook forward until the barb emerges. Cut off the barb and then back hook out Small exit wound, no sutures needed Needle Cover: for larger hooks that are superficial Anesthetize first and then slide an 18 or 20-gauge needle along the hook until the bevel covers the barb. Then back out the needle and hook together Cut-it-out: last resort Make an incision along the body of hook to barb and then remove hook Adjuncts: Hydrodissection with lidocaine along the tract can ease removal Post-Procedure Irrigate thoroughly and apply antibiotic ointment Routine prophylaxis not needed because complications are rare Consider prophylactic antibiotics if hook is deeply embedded in high-risk area or contaminated by fresh water or salt water References Aiello LP, Iwamoto M, Guyer DR.

This episode proves that nothing gold can stay, especially your 401k, as we kick things off with the revelation that October saw the worst tech layoffs since 2003, all while "Big Short" genius Michael Burry decided to bet a billion dollars on the inevitable AI bubble bursting. The villains of the week are legion: the FCC is officially making it easier for internet companies to charge us even more hidden fees; Elon Musk not only got his $1 trillion pay package approved—despite Tesla sales collapsing nearly 90% in some countries—but he also teased a flying car, clearly living in his own "Golden Dome" fantasy, which the Pentagon is happily subsidizing; and in a stunning display of entitlement, Mark Zuckerberg opened an illegal school, which is somehow less shocking than Meta's claim that their massive porn stash was purely for "personal use," not AI training. The bad news doesn't stop there, with Texas suing Roblox over 'pixel pedophiles,' though at least a rural Michigan healthcare system is doing some good by using drones to improve care.Jumping over to Media Candy, since we're all emotionally scarred by the sheer awful-ness of The Witcher S4—a season so bad it "broke" The Critical Drinker—we need some comfort viewing. We're deep-diving into the political chess of The Diplomat and escaping into the sheer volume of competitive cooking shows, including the standard Halloween and Holiday Baking Championships, plus the delightfully ridiculous Harry Potter: Wizards of Baking S2; we also took a look at Pluribus, Knife Edge, Black Rabbit, and the trailer for Tron: Ares, while cheering the fact that Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz are set to revive The Mummy franchise for a fourth film. In Apps & Doodads, we're all mourning the eventual death of simple, good tech as we're warned to enjoy Apple CarPlay while we still can, but at least the Lego ‘Star Trek' Set is finally here for our inner child; the real question, though, is why Automattic Inc. thinks they can claim ownership of the actual word 'Automatic.'Finally, The Dark Side with Dave Bittner reminds us that everything old is new again and ripe for monetization, whether it's Miss Piggy potentially bringing back The Muppets to the movies or the sleek, blacked-out remake of the Commodore 64, not to mention that cool Tron Arcade Cabinet Miniature Model. However, the present is still a complete dumpster fire: a Google AI model allegedly accused a senator of sexual assault, and internal documents show that Meta is earning a fortune on a massive deluge of fraudulent ads, proving that the only thing getting healthier is our paranoia, though Dave did throw in a curveball with some special jar lids and seeds for growing organic sprouts. We finish, as always, with the obligatory Closing Shout-Outs because even cynical geeks need validation.Sponsors:MasterClass - Get an additional 15% off any annual membership at MASTERCLASS.com/GRUMPYOLDGEEKSGusto - Try Gusto today at gusto.com/grumpy, and get three months free when you run your first payroll.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.
