It doesn't matter which fancy moisturizers or expensive skincare routine you use, nothing quite matches how your skin looks and feels after an intense workout. Just take a look in the mirror after you've finished exercising and you'll likely see smooth skin and a glowing complexion. That's right, in addition to the positive impact on our physical and mental health, exercise can also improve our skin health. And there are studies out there which have backed it up. For example, biology journal Aging Cell reported on one in 2015, which found that vigorous exercise led to visibly younger-looking skin. What's the science behind that? How exactly does exercising and sweating purify skin? Are some types of exercise better for your skin than others? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

In this episode, we take a nostalgic trip under the Big Top with Phil Campbell, a gifted musician whose early career took him on the road with the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus. For a decade, Phil played trumpet and piano for “The Greatest Show on Earth,” performing live alongside acrobats, clowns, and exotic animals in arenas across the country. Known for his ability to recreate music after hearing it once, Phil shares what it was like to live, travel, and perform with one of America's most iconic entertainment institutions — and reflects on how the circus shaped his life, his music, and his memories. So step right up and enjoy this behind-the-scenes look at circus life, through the eyes, and ears of someone who lived it.
Jones Plantation director, Drew Treglia, is back to discuss his hilarious new mockumentary, Barnum World. Hollywood producer Natty Jones sits down with Charlie Robinson to finally lay out what the “game” is, why it is being played, and how guys like him are able to create reality through movies, television, political campaigns, and statist propaganda. The making of comedy films to reach new audiences with subversive content is a huge opportunity for the alternative media, and without Hollywood calling the shots, it is much easier for directors to take creative chances. Drew's new podcast, Maverick in the Machine, also launched earlier this year and is available everywhere in audio format, as well as YouTube & Rumble for video.

Welcome to The Joy Revolution Podcast—where we don't just talk about happiness, we throw pies at it, juggle with it, and invite it to come flourish with us under the brightest spotlights life has to offer. I'm Marc Cordon, and today I'm joined by Aaron Schettler—a guy who made the leap from the relentless grind of Wall Street to the utterly unpredictable world of the circus ring. Seriously, how many people do you know who've traded hedge funds for red noses and slapstick? But hold up—this isn't just another “follow your dreams” tale. Aaron's story is a masterclass in living out loud, a celebration of the messy, exhilarating stuff that happens when you scrap the script society handed you and write your own. We go deep on childhood shyness, what it's like to grow up in the orbit of a father whose charisma sucked the air out of a room (in the best way), and how embracing the life of a Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey clown wasn't just about circus antics—it was about choosing flourishing over just existing. Together, we tumble straight into big questions: How do you step off the hedonic treadmill—the endless sprint for pleasure, success, or approval—and stop postponing your joy for some mythical “someday”? What if flourishing means not choosing between the joy of today and the meaning of tomorrow, but blending both, right now, in the wild, present moment? We'll juggle lessons old and new (sometimes literally), explore the transformative value of stillness, and get real about the behind-the-scenes grit of circus life—and how every lesson in vulnerability, laughter, and crowd connection shapes not just entertainers…but anyone willing to show up authentically, whether in a ring, a boardroom, or a bustling neighborhood. And, spoiler alert, these hard-won lessons led Aaron right back into the heart of service—as a fierce community-builder and, yes, a financial advisor with his own unique brand of joy. So, if you're ready to stop chasing happiness and start living it—if you want tangible insight, raw honesty, and a revolution that starts from within—this episode is for you. Let's embrace the paradox: balancing purpose and pleasure, finding joy in the mess, and living with the kind of intentionality that not only lights you up, but sparks laughter, connection, and change everywhere you go. Welcome to your Joy Revolution. Let's get this circus started. Subscribe to the Joy Revolution Podcast now.
The World Health Organisation suggests that 18° C is the perfect temperature to set your heating to, but in reality that is just an average. There are a number of variables to take into account. For example, certain rooms might need to be heated more than others. And generally speaking, when we're away from home or sleeping at night we can turn the heating down or off completely. That's right, it can depend on age and medical conditions like thyroid problems for example. Where a certain temperature might be comfortable for some, for others it might be less bearable. Isn't it true that some people are more sensitive to the cold than others? Which rooms need to be heated more than others then? What should you do if your home is humid?

Most productivity methods aim to boost your efficiency during office hours. But a new technique, based on your biological clock, might be the key: chronoworking. The term was coined by British journalist Ellen Scott in early 2024 in her newsletter “Working on Purpose.” She predicted that working according to your body clock would be a major trend. Chronoworking means tuning into your natural energy peaks and dips throughout the day, month, or year, and adjusting your work schedule accordingly. What is chronoworking? How does it work in practice? What exactly is the biological clock? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

My guest today began his Club Med journey in 1986 as a Circus G.O. at Club Med Eleuthera, eventually rising to the role of Chief of Circus during his remarkable run through 1993. After leaving Club Med, he continued his high-flying career with several renowned circuses, including the legendary Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey. In 1997, he founded Trapeze Experience, a premier flying trapeze company offering classes, advanced coaching, equipment, and special events — and to date, he's helped over 150,000 people take flight! Originally from New York and now calling Florida home, please welcome the one and only, Peter Gold! Peter walks us through each of his Club Med seasons, sharing fascinating stories along the way.

According to recent data from personal finance website NimbleFins, the average British family of four spent around £4,678 for a 9-night holiday abroad in 2023. And of that total amount, £1,828 went towards flights, nearly 40%, reflecting the reality that air fares still account for a high proportion of the total cost of a holiday. And experts say that flight prices are set to continue rising in the coming years, as more expensive sustainable aviation fuels are brought in to replace traditional kerosene. With that in mind, let's discuss some ways in which you can make some savings on the most expensive part of your next holiday. What should I do if I'm buying online?

Washington, D.C. is the home of the American government and every square inch of it oozes history. Shockingly, we haven't covered many haunted locations in the Capitol City, despite its extensive history. So it was definitely time to investigate what else is haunted in this city and we found a neighborhood with multiple ghost stories. Foggy Bottom dates back to the mid-1700s, but it would take nearly 100 years before people would settle here and these were mostly laborers. There were two grand homes here, one of which still stands and both reputedly were haunted. And there are a couple of legends connected to the area as well. Join us for the history and hauntings of Foggy Bottom. The Moment in Oddity features Tasmanian Devil births and This Month in History features the birth of P.T. Barnum.

#Clown #AmericanClown #CircusArts #Clowns On this episode of the Circuspreneur Podcast, host Sheneas Stiletto interviews writer, director, and circus documentarian Guilford Adams.American Clown is a feature-length documentary exploring the plight of clowns in a country that looks on them with a growing sense of apprehension and disdain. Guest appearances include John C. Reilly, Steve-O, David Arquette, and Matt Morgan.Guilford Adams has worked as a professional clown for nearly two decades. In recent years, he's watched media reports of “clowns” terrorizing neighborhood streets at night, the reboot of “IT” and Pennywise, the shuttering of Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus and the unceremonious end to the regional Ronald McDonald program, where “assistants” to Ronald appeared at grand openings, community events and elementary school shows.Guilford was one of those dismissed assistants to Ronald.As he felt the culture shifting, he started thinking about what it might mean for him, his family and all of his clowning comrades.The film follows Guilford's quest as he surveys the current state of clowning with his friends who are also struggling to adapt, as well as legendary performers of past eras and their take on the history and art of clowning.American Clown premieres today at the Chinese theater in at the Los Angeles Dances with Films Festival.

In this episode of Daily Creative, we sit down with Jesse Cole, the founder of the Savannah Bananas—a phenomenon that's redefining what it means to have fun at a baseball game. We share Jesse's incredible journey from feeling uninspired in a “dream job” to igniting a revolution in sports entertainment. Bored with the traditional, slow-moving experience of baseball, Jesse asked the pivotal question: “How could we make this fun every time?”We explore how Jesse leaned into bold ideas, ditched the predictable playbook, and replaced blandness with pure creative energy. Drawing inspiration from visionaries like Walt Disney and P.T. Barnum, Jesse made it his mission to build a show fans couldn't stop talking about—complete with dancing staff, wild rules, and a sense of spectacle that makes every moment count. From the struggles of his early days as a young general manager, turning around a failing team with empty stadiums, to the sold-out, wildly viral success of the Savannah Bananas, Jesse reveals how continuous innovation and fan-first thinking can transform not only an experience, but an entire industry.We go behind the scenes to unearth the Bananas' creative process, from weekly idea pitching sessions inspired by Saturday Night Live to relentless experimentation and audience feedback. Jesse shares how his commitment to fun, learning from outside his industry, and obsession with new ideas keeps the Bananas experience fresh, exciting, and unforgettable night after night.Five Key Learnings from This Episode:Create What You Love: The most remarkable creators, like Jesse, build experiences that they themselves would truly enjoy. If it doesn't excite you, it's unlikely to excite your fans.Embrace the “What If” Question: Growth and innovation come from questioning industry assumptions and daring to envision something completely different, even if it sounds “too much” at first.Learn Across Industries: Pull the best ideas from outside your field. Parallel thinking and adaptation of concepts (from Disney to the circus to WWE) helped make Banana Ball truly unique.Prioritize Experience Over Promotion: People must experience your difference—not just hear about it. The Bananas invest in the fan experience, letting viral moments and word-of-mouth do the marketing.Iterate Fast and Learn Relentlessly: The Bananas test new ideas every night, seek feedback, and adjust constantly to create moments audiences will remember and want to relive.Get full interviews and bonus content for free!

Konstruktionsschwächen Teil I: Warum unser Hirn Zusammenhänge erfindetIn dieser Episode spricht Forensik- und Psychiatrieexperte Frank Urbaniok über sogenannte Konstruktionsschwächen unseres Denkens: psychologische Effekte wie den Barnum-Effekt, den Rückschaufehler, den Bestätigungsfehler und den Halo-Effekt.Sie helfen uns, im Alltag schnell Entscheidungen zu treffen, führen aber auch zu Verzerrungen, Fehleinschätzungen und dem Verlust von Zwischentönen. Besonders in einer digitalisierten Welt voller Meinungen, Schlagzeilen und Halbwissen ist das brisant.Urbaniok vergleicht unser Gehirn mit einem Drogenspürhund. Es will überall Muster finden, Zusammenhänge erkennen, Sinn stiften. Das ist zutiefst menschlich. Und manchmal: gefährlich.

On this week's Talkhouse Podcast we've got a couple of guys who found huge followings—on the internet and elsewhere—in different ways, but with similar outlooks: Adam Met and Julian Shapiro-Barnum. Met is one-third of the brother band AJR, who've found massive pop hits over the past decade with cheeky but sometimes deceptively deep songs like “Bang” and “World's Smallest Violin.” Perhaps those more into the indie-adjacent world have heard their collaborations with Weezer. But for purposes of this conversation, Met is wearing one of his many other hats, which include Columbia professor, non-profit founder, and as of this week, published author. He just released his first book, AMPLIFY: How to Use the Power of Connection to Engage, Take Action, and Build a Better World, As you may have guessed from the title, it's about action and advocacy, including in the area of the climate crisis, for which Met is an ardent activist. He casually mentions hanging out with Al Gore here, which may be a Talkhouse first. The book aims to provide strategies for folks who want to do their part, which is a noble cause if you ask me. It features pop-culture names like Ben Folds and Jim Gaffigan, in addition to folks more known in the activism world. It's out now. The other half of today's conversation is Met's pal, comedian and internet personality Julian Shapiro-Barnum. An inquisitive guy by nature, Shapiro-Barnum recorded a series of internet videos over the years that were largely conversations with regular people, and during the pandemic he hit on the idea of chatting with children about how they manage to stay positive when everything seems so crazy. That idea became the very popular series Recess Therapy, which is as charming as it sounds—and, it should be noted, launched the “corn kid” into internet fame. These two jump right into a lively conversation about how music and advocacy can go hand in hand, about Julian's various shows, including Recess Therapy and Celebrity Substitute, and lots more. Enjoy. Thanks for listening to the Talkhouse Podcast, and thanks to Julian Shapiro-Barnum and Adam Met for chatting.

This week, we take over the HOV lane with Carpool; the family comedy that wants so badly to be edgy, but ultimately fails because it's trying to capture the minds and hearts of a younger audience. The end result is a movie that's got really great pacing and sense of cause and effect, but has just a little too much Tom Arnold for comfort. Here we go! Clingy carny criminal cajacks and kidnaps kids, is caught by a Karen cop, and continues to cut and run, causing chaos constantly! Child abduction breast reduction! Arnold almost always averts attention away from aiming automobile! PC police prevent piss-poor P.T. Barnum from profiting! Factory circus? Improper tube logic, and much, much more on this week's episode of The Worst Movie Ever Made! www.theworstmovieevermade.com

The feeling of hunger can be difficult to explain sometimes, especially if you feel like you've eaten as much as you usually do. As a result, we often end up either snacking or putting up with a rumbling tummy for hours on end. Even if we manage to resist snacking, the risk is that when it gets to meal time we end up eating twice as much as usual! Feelings of hunger can also lead to a drop in energy or concentration problems. A number of factors can explain not feeling full after eating. One is not getting breakfast “right”. If you skip it completely, or eat something too sweet, that could well be why you get hungry later on. What if I'm not hungry in the morning? What about at lunchtime? What should I do if even sticking to those guidelines, I still feel hungry? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

You might assume that belief in the paranormal is limited to the fringes of society. After all, according to science, ghosts don't exist; or at least, their existence has never been proven. But despite this lack of evidence, a significant proportion of people still claim to believe in ghosts. Within the last decade, Yougov polls have suggested that's true for a third of Brits and 40% of Americans. How did belief in ghosts evolve over time?

Your daily calendar reveals the truth about your priorities more honestly than your words ever could. In this thought-provoking exploration of authentic living, Jesse Cope challenges us to confront the gap between what we say matters to us and how we actually spend our time and resources. Are we becoming more like Christ or drifting away from Him? There's no neutral ground.Drawing from Titus 2, we examine God's counter-cultural instructions for men and women of all ages—standards that differ radically from modern social messaging. These biblical principles reveal why Christian witness diminishes when believers' lives mirror those of non-believers. "If we look just the same inside the church as people outside the church," Cope observes, "then we're not really offering anything."The conversation shifts to America's cultural crossroads, borrowing wisdom from Sun Tzu's "The Art of War" alongside historical American voices. Prescott, Bancroft, and even P.T. Barnum demonstrate how thoroughly Christian principles once permeated American education, politics, and culture. This historical perspective frames our current moment as potentially America's "last stand for liberty," with nowhere else to flee if freedom fails here.Most powerfully, we're reminded that each of us may be "the only piece of Jesus Christ that somebody gets to see." Your representation of faith matters tremendously to those who may never encounter Christianity elsewhere. How will your calendar reflect your true priorities today? Listen now to realign your actions with your deepest values and join the vital work of reclaiming America's soul.Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe

The WASP has had a long history of inspiring stories about people overcoming alcoholism and addictions, but I really like the story and approach presented here by Tom Barnum. He is a former college and NFL player, who was on two teams that won the Super Bowl, including the 1972 Dolphins who is still the only team to complete an undefeated season – although in each case he only made it to the taxi squad. It was a culture that encouraged drinking, steroid use, and gambling. After engaging in these destructive behaviors for many years, as well as going through recovery, AA meetings, and learning about Buddhist principles, Tom developed a deep understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of many of these paths that can take one from ruin to sobriety. He sees even more perils in today's society where younger and younger kids have access to drugs and to phone app gambling, and where the justice system is an ineffective deterrent. Tom shares his insights in his book Sobriety Is A Team Sport, where he emphasizes the power of enlisting support networks—family, friends, healthcare professionals, and spiritual guidance—in overcoming addiction. He writes candidly about the evolving landscape of addiction, the necessity of surrender, and the limitations of punitive legal approaches in addressing substance use disorders. His teachings integrate elements of mindfulness and Buddhism, offering a holistic perspective on sustainable sobriety. The culture of discipline, resilience, and mental toughness—while important for success—can also create a dangerous stigma around seeking help, making it difficult for individuals to admit they are struggling. As a former athlete, Tom shares his personal experience with addiction and how the fear of appearing weak kept him from seeking support for years. He challenges the misconception that surrender is failure, explaining instead how true strength lies in acknowledging the need for help and embracing recovery as a team effort. Tom also explores how shifting from a hyper-competitive mindset to one of community and support can make all the difference in sustaining long-term sobriety, helping high performers reframe their approach to both success and healing. Of the many WASP guests discussing their sobriety, I find Tom's down-to-Earth approach makes an awful amount of sense.Tom Barnumwww.stilltom.comFacebook Sobriety Is A Team SportInstagram @stilltom462206Bill Stahlsilly_billy@msn.comFacebook Bill StahlInstagram and Threads @stahlor and @we_are_superman_podcastYouTube We Are Superman PodcastSubscribe to the We Are Superman Newsletter!https://mailchi.mp/dab62cfc01f8/newsletter-signup
