On Prophecy Radio episode #134, Karen and Kristen return to The Red Pyramid with their discussion of chapters 23 and 24! They also talk about Rick Riordan's love of high-quality boxes, as well as some minor Percy Jackson and the Olympians news. New episodes of Prophecy Radio will air every other week. All discussions are PG-13. News and Updates (00:07:24) Independent Bookstore Day is on April 26–go support your local shop if you can!! Did you catch Rick Riordan unboxing his Emmys? The Dad vibes are strong with this video! Jay Duplass will not return as Hades in Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2–but all is not lost. We love how much his kids love Percy Jackson, which means the likelihood of him coming back for Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 3 is pretty high. We can't remember if we discussed the Gray Sisters casting from D23 2024, but we're doing it now! Where do we know Sandra Bernhard, Kristen Schaal, and Margaret Cho from? The Red Pyramid discussion (00:19:45) Let's start with The Red Pyramid chapter 23. Sadie is human again! We find out how she did it. Nobody woke Carter for lunch, but that's the least of his worries right now. Bast thinks Set might not be the one at the top of the food chain here, and that's definitely cause for concern. It's time to head to Memphis–and this time they're not “borrowing” a car, though Bast still requires a convertible. There's a lot of atmospheric description to this book, and we're all for it. Baboons playing basketball is probably a good indication that a god is nearby. Carter is NOT great at basketball, but we find out why it's so important to him. We love how hard Sadie is working to be kind to him about this. Finally, we get to meet Toth, the god of wisdom, as well as all of his ibis receptionists. Is it weird that the Greeks likened him to Hermes? Ah, yes, the importance of astrology and leechcraft. The way Thoth's powers are portrayed was super interesting and makes you wonder how powerful he is. We get some important backstory about the relationship between Horus, Isis, Set, and Thoth. Thoth seems to be a bit of a contradiction–highly intelligent and yet not very observant. Knowing a creature's actual name has such power, and we love this concept. How can Sadie hold a goddess at bay if she was also having trouble with her sense of self enough to struggle coming out of her kite form? Did we all feel on a spiritual level how much Thoth didn't want to read his old work, or was that just us? Was this chapter too long and too full of information to really comprehend everything? Time for our favorite lines and favorite moments! Now it's time to head to Graceland in The Red Pyramid chapter 24. Was Elvis a magician? All signs point to yes. Seriously, though, music really is magical. It must be so weird to be at Graceland with no tourists. STOP DESTROYING NATIONAL MONUMENTS. Karen really wants to know what type of lizard Carter was turned into. Sadie is SO resourceful, and we loved seeing how she defeated the magicians. This time, we DO know what kind of reptile is on the page–and it's a big one! How did Sadie turn Carter back into a person? Was this just a test from Thoth? At least they fixed up Graceland before they left. Could the cat of Ra actually be Bast?? How does she feel about battling Apophis again? Favorite lines and favorite scenes! Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 135, where we'll discuss The Red Pyramid chapters 25 and 26, as well as get you up to date on whatever Percy Jackson news might be out there. This episode's hosts are: Karen and Kristen Each episode, Prophecy Radio‘s hosts will discuss any official news coming out of Camp Half-Blood before doing a chapter by chapter reread of Percy Jackson or one of Rick Riordan's other series.

BUFFALO, NY — April 23, 2025 — A new #research paper was #published in Aging (Aging-US) Volume 17, Issue 3, on March 18, 2025, titled “Epigenetic and accelerated age in captive olive baboons (Papio anubis), and relationships with walking speed and fine motor performance.” In this study, led by Sarah J. Neal from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, researchers examined how the epigenetic age of baboons—a measure of biological aging based on DNA methylation—compared to their actual age (chronological age) and whether it related to signs of aging like slower walking or reduced hand coordination. While many baboons showed a mismatch between their epigenetic and chronological ages, these differences did not consistently align with physical performance measures. Researchers analyzed blood samples from 140 captive olive baboons (Papio anubis) to determine whether these primates, like humans, show signs of “age acceleration”—a condition where epigenetic age surpasses chronological age. The results revealed that about a quarter of the baboons exhibited accelerated aging, while another quarter showed signs of slower aging, known as “age deceleration.” “We found that epigenetic age was strongly correlated with chronological age, and that approximately 27% of the sample showed age acceleration and 28% showed age deceleration." The scientists then investigated whether these differences were reflected in physical indicators such as walking speed or fine motor skills. To do this, researchers measured walking speed by tracking how quickly baboons moved between points in their enclosures and assessed fine motor skills using a simple task that involved picking up small objects. Older baboons did tend to walk more slowly and perform worse on tasks requiring dexterity, patterns also seen in aging humans. However, these changes were more closely related to chronological age than epigenetic age. Two different methods were used to measure the gap between epigenetic and chronological age. Each method produced slightly different outcomes, highlighting the complexity of defining age acceleration. In one analysis, the oldest baboons appeared to age more slowly epigenetically, possibly reflecting selective survival, where only the healthiest individuals live into old age. This research is among the first to classify baboons based on their epigenetic aging rate and investigate how this links to real-world signs of aging. Although the findings did not provide clear evidence that epigenetic age acceleration leads to physical decline, they point to the importance of DNA methylation as a biomarker in aging research. Because baboons share many biological similarities with humans, these findings help refine how researchers measure aging and assess potential early warning signs of decline. Continued studies in baboons and other primates may improve our understanding of how epigenetic aging influences health and longevity—and could help develop better tools for predicting age-related decline in humans.

Der Song Radio Rebelde von The Baboon Show ist eine Hymne an den Widerstand, die Freiheit und die Rebellion gegen Unterdrückung. Der Titel „Radio Rebelde“ bezieht sich auf den gleichnamigen kubanischen Radiosender, der 1958 von Che Guevara und der Rebellenbewegung der kubanischen Revolutiongegründet wurde, um revolutionäre Botschaften zu verbreiten.Ich finde hier treffen sich rebellische Musik und rebellische Theologie – ich stelle euch mit dem Song drei Befreiungstheologen vor! Mit in der Folge sind Menschen, die mit mir The Baboon Show Live in Köln gesehen haben.You are not alone! Wir sind nicht allein! Wir sind Radio Rebelde! Revolution rocks!Wir stehen heute vor den gleichen Herausforderungen wie Ernesto Cardenal, Leonardo Boff und Camilo Torres. Es gibt immer noch Ungerechtigkeit, immer noch Ausgrenzung, immer noch Menschen, die sagen: „Das ist nicht dein Kampf.“Ernesto Cardenal sah in der Dichtung nicht nur eine ästhetische Ausdrucksform, sondern ein politisches Instrument gegen Ungerechtigkeit und Unterdrückung. Leonardo Boff betont die Bedeutung einer gerechten und solidarischen Gesellschaft, in der die Armen und Unterdrückten eine zentrale Rolle spielen. Camilo Torres hatte also die Vorstellung aus, dass Jesus, wenn er heute lebte, sich nicht von der Gesellschaft und den bestehenden Machtstrukturen zurückziehen würde, sondern aktiv gegen das Unrecht und die Ungerechtigkeit kämpfen würde. Übrigens machen meine Gäste in dieser Folge als Schallhärte wundbaren Seniorpunk. https://seniorpunk.jimdofree.comIn diesem Video könnt ihr uns alle mitsingen hören und am Ende gibt es das schöne „You Are Not Alone“ Banner zu sehen! https://youtu.be/tBZwFxlDkT4Foto © Andreas Langfeld Homepage: https://7tage1song.dePlaylist Podcast und Song: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/20KHRuuW0YqS7ZyHUdlKO4?si=b6ea0b237af041ecInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/7tage1song/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pg/7tage1song/Kontakt: post@7tage1song.deLink zum Song: https://open.spotify.com/intl-de/track/4Sr4nnRvNTNAt78xP2wz9U?si=5766af268b804187Spotify Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0M5tOXTC0lM8RVycUBQnjy?si=idKC-CFaRp2ZD992gvWvsQ

A woman encounters an orangutan-looking creature on her porch at her swampy homestead. A hunter sees a troop of baboons. A hairy hand reaches into a deer blind. Across the American South, particularly in states like Texas and Florida, tales have surfaced for decades of strange, often unnerving encounters in the wilderness—not with known native wildlife, but with creatures resembling feral apes or wild primates.  Some researchers believe these sightings may be linked to feral populations of escaped or released primates. In the mid-20th century, exotic pet ownership and roadside zoos were far more common, and many animals were let loose or escaped into the wild. Over time, it's possible that some species adapted to their environments, forming secretive breeding populations in remote, unmonitored regions. Wildlife journalist and field investigators have documented everything from anomalous hair samples to strange vocal recordings in these hotspots. The behaviors described—chest-beating, howling, and ambush-like movements—align more with great apes than with any known North American species. In the latest episode of Dark Outdoors, we dive deep into these encounters with feral apes and wild primates, exploring the theories, legends, and firsthand accounts that paint a chilling portrait of what might be lurking just beyond the campfire's glow.

Primal Rage (1988)Directed By: Vittorio RambaldiStarring: Patrick Lowe, Cheryl Arutt, Sarah Buxton, Science in the Front - Party in the BackCrummy Movie March rolls on, and in this 3rd episode of the monthy, we're looking at the 1988 masterpiece Primal Rage. It's a red-assed world, honey baby - and nothing sticks the point home more than when a reporter gets bitten by a mutant baboon and spreads an unknown virus around campus.

Can Men and Women (Baboons) Really Just Be Friends?In the romantic comedy “When Harry Met Sally,” the central premise, as Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan's characters stay friends throughout the years, is, can men and women really just be friends?In the movie, the answer is no, not really. Spoiler alert: They do get together in the end. But what if we take that concept and bring it to the animal kingdom, specifically to primates?The Kinda baboon is known for its distinct social behaviors. Individuals form long-term, social bonds, and those relationships are seen, uniquely, between male and female baboons. Over nine years, researchers studied the Kinda baboon, a kinder, gentler species of baboon, to learn more about their social lives. Kindas are unique among baboons because they're the least sexually dimorphic: males and females are close to the same size, making them a better analog for us humans.So can male and female baboons really be just friends? Much like the movie, long friendships do happen between Kindas—but there also appears to be a benefit during mating season.Joining Host Flora Lichtman to talk about her work with these baboons is Dr. Anna Weyher, founder of the Kasanka Baboon Project in Zambia. Weyher has studied Kinda baboons for over a decade.The Best Bear Deterrent May Be DronesWhat do you do when a bear keeps coming too close to people, and doesn't take the hint to stay away? It's a serious problem, because human-wildlife conflict can be dangerous for both the people and animals involved. Wildlife managers have for years used a collection of deterrents, including firecracker noises, rubber bullets, and trained dogs, to try to chase bears away from human habitations.Writing in the journal Frontiers in Conservation Science, former Montana bear management specialist Wesley Sarmento claims that a high-tech approach may be more effective: drones. Sarmento joins Host Flora Lichtman to discuss his experiences with hazing stubborn bears.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.

A new study suggests that self-awareness in wild primates may be more limited than previously thought. In laboratory settings, great apes such as chimpanzees and orangutans have demonstrated self-recognition by passing the “mark test,” where they notice and respond to a dot placed on their faces while looking in a mirror.

The Venture Bros. is one of my favorite shows of all time and after a TWENTY YEAR run it finally comes to an end with this off-the-wall final movie streaming on Max.
