    Watch Us On YouTube! Announcing a new, ongoing benefit for annual subscribers of our Slack community. Annual subscribers receive a free Points Path Alerts subscription OR a 30% discount on Points Path Pro. Is the golden age of points and miles ending—or is it simply evolving? This week, Ed is joined by Summer Hull and Julian Kheel to break down Chase's controversial decision to reduce Hyatt transfer ratios for Sapphire Preferred cardholders while maintaining the existing ratio for Sapphire Reserve members. The discussion goes beyond the headline change and explores what it means for the future of transferable points, premium credit cards, and loyalty programs. Is this a one-off adjustment, or the start of a broader trend where transfer ratios vary depending on which card you carry? The team also revisits Bilt 2.0 several months after launch, discussing which features have worked better in practice than they initially expected and how members are adapting to the new ecosystem. Finally, they tackle a question that has been debated for more than a decade: Are we witnessing the end of the golden era of points and miles, or just another chapter in its evolution?

    Dr. Peter Sorensen joins hosts Dr. Jeffrey Jensen and Dr. Johanna Richey for a wide-ranging conversation about artificial intelligence in podiatric education and practice. Recorded as Sorensen finishes his second year of residency at Ascension St. Vincent in Indianapolis, the episode traces his path from a college ankle fracture into the profession, through his early experiments with ChatGPT in 2022, and into the platform he now builds for students and residents.This episode is sponsored by Bako Diagnostics!The importance of using AI responsibly is Dr. Sorensen's main message. He and the hosts discuss how to let AI save time and sharpen thinking without quietly eroding the skills that make a good clinician and surgeon. Along the way the conversation turns to hallucinations and active learning, the risk of “de-skilling,” AI as a thought partner, and how these tools can lower the steep barrier to entry into organized podiatry.Sorensen started using ChatGPT the week OpenAI released it to the public in November 2022, while he was still in podiatry school. The early versions, he admits, let him down — they couldn't even browse the internet in real time — but he kept a running mental list of things he wished the tools could do. Over the last several months, he says, the capabilities finally caught up to those ideas.The most quoted idea in the episode is also its most countercultural: skepticism isn't a reason to avoid AI — it's the reason to use it. “I always tell people to always doubt the output of AI,” Sorensen says, because hallucinations are real. But that doubt, he argues, turns a passive user into an active learner. If something feels off, you go to the primary source, and modern tools are increasingly good at telling you where their claims came from.The hosts press on the harder question — cognitive offloading, or “de-skilling.” Dr. Richey makes the point that real learning has to be a little hard: “We can't biohack knowledge, but we can make it more accessible.” She and Jensen return to a distinction they've discussed before — that knowledge is becoming a commodity in the palm of our hands, while wisdom is not. Sorensen agrees that the journey matters more than the destination, and that offloading every hard thing would leave the next generation unable to do the work. His answer isn't to abstain; it's to be intentional.Beyond time saved, Sorensen describes the use case he now values most: a thought partner. Claude, he says, is his go-to here — a soundboard that helps him clarify what he actually thinks while keeping the ideas his own. As a senior resident beginning to form his own positions on patient care and professional politics, he finds the tools useful for clearing mental clutter and organizing scattered thoughts into something coherent.He speaks from recent experience. Through the APMA Emerging Leaders Program, he traveled to Washington, D.C., to advocate on Capitol Hill, and came away struck by the tireless, often-underappreciated work that actually moves the needle — including the efforts of APMA staff. Attending the House of Delegates as a young physician observer was, he says, one of his most eye-opening experiences, and also where he started using Claude in earnest, to make sense of what he was watching.About Dr. Peter SorensenPeter Sorensen, DPM, MHA, is a podiatric surgery resident at Ascension St. Vincent in Indianapolis. He earned his DPM and MHA from Des Moines University (graduating in 2024) and holds a BA in Spanish from Southern Utah University; he previously worked as a medical Spanish interpreter. He is a member of the APMA Emerging Leaders Program and served on the APMA Re-imagining Education Task Force. He is the publisher of The Guidewire, where he writes about artificial intelligence in podiatric medicine and works to lower the barrier to entry into the profession for students and residents.

Tim discusses how sugar spikes, energy dips and inflammation may contribute to brain fog, fatigue and poor concentration.What does Tim Spector recommend for gut health?He talks about eating 30 plants a week, adding more colour and variety to your diet, increasing fibre, using herbs and spices, and regularly including fermented foods.What are fermented foods?Fermented foods include things like kefir, yoghurt, kimchi, sauerkraut and other foods that may help support gut health and reduce inflammation.What does Tim Spector say about GLP-1 drugs?Tim describes GLP-1 drugs as one of the most important medical discoveries of his professional career, but argues they should be combined with nutrition education and long-term behaviour change.Why does Tim Spector criticise calorie counting?He argues that calorie counting and restriction have failed many people because they do not address appetite signals, food quality, gut health or the wider food environment.How is this episode relevant to performance?The episode explores how what we eat can affect focus, energy, mood, decision-making and long-term health, all of which are central to everyday performance.___00:00 Why GLP-1 Drugs Could Transform Public Health01:34 Professor Tim Spector on Food, Mood and Performance02:32 Can Your Gut Change the Way You Think?06:58 Can Changing Your Microbiome Change Your Personality?08:05 The Food Experiment That Gave Tim Spector Brain Fog12:21 How Blood Sugar Spikes Affect Focus and Energy19:17 Why What You Eat Is Crucial to Mental Performance21:37 How to Improve Your Diet and Gut Health24:35 The Benefits of 30 Plants and Fermented Foods34:48 The Truth About GLP-1s, Weight Loss and Willpower___The Performance People podcast, in partnership with J.P.

    When Drinking Less Feels Hard: Alcohol is Fun & Everyone is Drinking!

    In this episode of the Alcohol Minimalist Podcast, Molly continues the series “When Drinking Less Feels Hard” by looking at one of the most common places drinking less can feel difficult: social situations where alcohol feels like part of the fun and everyone else is drinking.This episode explores two powerful Alcohol Core Beliefs: alcohol makes things more fun and alcohol creates connection. These beliefs often show up around dinners out, parties, weekends, vacations, celebrations, and those moments when you had a plan—until you were surrounded by other people drinking.Molly explains why the challenge is not simply being in a bar, at a restaurant, at a party, or on vacation. The deeper issue is that your brain may have learned to associate alcohol with belonging, ease, confidence, playfulness, and connection. When that belief is running in the background, choosing to drink less can feel like choosing a lesser version of the experience.But alcohol is not the source of your humor, warmth, courage, or ability to connect. Those parts of you already exist.In this science-forward episode, Molly breaks down how alcohol expectancies, social cues, dopamine, reward prediction, and alcohol myopia can make drinking feel automatic in social settings. She also shares how to challenge the thoughts that make alcohol feel necessary and how to build new evidence that fun, connection, and belonging are still fully available when you drink less.You'll learn how to use the 4S process—See, Soothe, Separate, and Shift—to question the belief that alcohol makes everything better. Instead of relying on willpower in the moment, Molly encourages you to create a doable drink plan ahead of time, protect your awareness before alcohol narrows it, and practice proving to your brain that you can enjoy social situations without giving alcohol all the credit.In This Episode, You'll Learn:Why social situations can make drinking less feel harder than drinking less at homeHow the beliefs “alcohol makes things more fun” and “alcohol creates connection” fuel desireWhy “everyone is drinking” can feel so powerful, even when you genuinely want to drink lessHow alcohol expectancies shape what you believe a drink will do for youWhy familiar cues like restaurants, vacations, Friday afternoons, and celebrations can trigger urgesWhat alcohol myopia is and why “I'll decide later” is often not a strong enough planHow to separate the facts of a social situation from the story your brain is tellingHow to use the 4S process to challenge old beliefs and practice new onesWhy alcohol may be present during fun and connection without being the cause of either oneKey Takeaway:Alcohol may be present during fun, connection, celebration, and belonging—but that does not mean alcohol created those things.When you stop giving alcohol full credit for the experience, you can begin reclaiming your own confidence, humor, warmth, playfulness, and ability to connect. Drinking less is not about having less fun. It is about learning that fun was never dependent on alcohol in the first place.Mentioned in This Episode:Mostly Dry July: The Daily begins July 1st.Join Molly for daily support, coaching, and practical tools to help you create a peaceful relationship with alcohol throughout the month of July.Learn more at: https://mollywatts.com/mostlydryjuly/Resources:Join the Alcohol Minimalist Facebook group for support, conversation, and real-life strategies for changing your drinking habits.Learn more about Molly's programs and resources at mollywatts.com.Low risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA:Healthy men under 65:No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week.Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older:No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week.One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.Abstinence from alcoholAbstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.Benefits of “low-risk” drinkingFollowing these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work. ★ Support this podcast ★

So, Sahara, Jonathan, how are you guys doing today? Jonathan Chizever [00:01:06]: Wonderful. Excited to be here. James Kademan [00:01:08]: Yeah. Shahayra Majumder [00:01:08]: Woot, woot. James Kademan [00:01:09]: Let's talk about Hydrate IV bar. I don't know what in the world an IV bar is, and I bet a lot of people don't either. So let's just start with what is an IV bar? Jonathan Chizever [00:01:18]: Happy to tell them you want to go or want me to go? Shahayra Majumder [00:01:20]: Um, yeah, I'll kick it off if you want to add in, if there's anything that I miss. But have you ever had an IV before? James Kademan [00:01:28]: I had. Yes. I had a saline IV thing when I had a. A gut thing, a stress gut thing Shahayra Majumder [00:01:35]: way back when, probably in the hospital. James Kademan [00:01:37]: Yeah. Yeah. Not a fan. Shahayra Majumder [00:01:39]: Yeah. James Kademan [00:01:41]: Not a fan of being in the hospital. Shahayra Majumder [00:01:42]: Yeah, right. Yeah, I. A lot of people are used to thinking about IVs being something that you get in the hospital or at urgent care in an emerg situation. But an IV bar actually takes those services outside of an emergency situation and lets you be a little more proactive about rapidly rehydrating your body. James Kademan [00:02:04]: All right. Shahayra Majumder [00:02:05]: For your different health and wellness goals. There's lots that we can do with supplementing things that you might be deficient in or if you're just feeling certain ailments that could be improved with additional vitamin supplements, meditation, or hydration. That's usually why people come to an IV bar. For me, it's been more of a proactive thing. I realized as I started doing IVs on a regular basis, I felt more energy. I was getting sick less. I didn't really let anything get me down as much. Like during cold and flu season. Shahayra Majumder [00:02:49]: Yeah. Anything that you would add to that, Jonathan Chizever [00:02:52]: I think that sums it up. Great. Yeah. James Kademan [00:02:54]: All right. How do you get in the IV bar business? Shahayra Majumder [00:02:58]: You take that one. Jonathan Chizever [00:03:01]: So we both, in our travels, neither of us are from Madison. I've been here 10 years. Sahara's been here seven. And we've both, in our travels and living other places, seen this as a more established concept in other places. And, you know, in the Midwest, whether it's fashion trends or wellness modalities, we're generally the last to get just about everything. And so here we are. And so, you know, IVs have saved us in numerous occasions from feeling bad, and really, until we got in the business, didn't yet understand how much it can make you feel good in a consistent and proactive sense. But we just saw this as a market that makes so much sense for it, because, you know, what people traditionally associate it with is hangovers, at least in the selective sense, which it is phenomenal for, I've heard, at least. Jonathan Chizever [00:03:54]: But. But beyond that, you know, like, the founder of our brand, she got into this. She was a Broncos cheerleader, and she noticed all the guys in the team are doing these IVs routinely, all the time. And that was part of her origin story of getting into this. And so athletes love it, and athletes have been ahead of the curve and, you know, taking advantage of this. So for athletics and drinking Madison, we have a lot of bubbles, and turns out. James Kademan [00:04:24]: Yeah, yeah. Jonathan Chizever [00:04:25]: So. And then beyond that, we also have a very vibrant wellness scene. You know, we have a population that likes to take care of themselves. And, I mean, in so many ways, it made sense, but it was something that we saw being severely underserved. So it wasn't like we wanted to start a business. And we're like, what business do we do? It was like we noticed that there was a gap in the availability of these types of services in a place that it makes so much sense to have them. And the rest kind of naturally came from there. James Kademan [00:04:55]: Right on. So did you hunt down a franchise, or did you get introduced to the franchise? And you're like, yes, that's what we want. Shahayra Majumder [00:05:03]: Little column A, little column B. I did interview, like, every franchise under the sun doing IV stuff. James Kademan [00:05:09]: All in the IV stuff. Shahayra Majumder [00:05:10]: Yes. James Kademan [00:05:11]: Okay, how many are we talking here? Shahayra Majumder [00:05:12]: Oh, my God. I think I Started talking to folks in September of 2024, and then we signed our franchise agreement February of 25. So, yeah, I mean, that gives you a little gauge. It took me months and months of. James Kademan [00:05:27]: So just talking like, I don't know how many franchise I've seen. Are we talking five? We talking 50? Jonathan Chizever [00:05:32]: Oh, no, I'd say a dozen and a half maybe.

And there are a few that dominate the market. There are a few that are bigger. But what's interesting is this industry, it's very highly regulated, but the regulations are different state to state. So if you know a little bit about franchising, you know that franchises have to be registered in every single state. And some states are harder to get registered in. And so I talked to a lot of the folks that I was able to get their franchisees on the phone and get honest opinions about the kind of support they're receiving, how the market has received them. I particularly talk to folks in the Midwest or familiar with the Midwest because, you know, the market in the Midwest is not going to be what it is in, you know, Nashville, Tennessee, for example, where you're getting a lot more tourism and.

    Eternal life, mercy, forgiveness of sins, covenant meal that keeps us in Christ and He in us. These are but a few of the very real benefits Christ our God bestows upon us through bread and wine that He has made His Body and Blood for us. Jesus teaches us this directly in the Gospel of John and chapter 6. The very generation following the Apostles testify to the experience of all of these benefits in this blessed Sacrament. And, the Church passes on the ministry of Christ to His people through the Eucharist even today. The Feast of Corpus Christi is the remembrance of the eternal benefits Christ has wrought for us in the Sacrament of Holy Eucharist. And, this Feast is our opportunity to offer great thanksgiving to Christ this great gift, the gift of Himself.

    Welcome to the Rule of 3 Offense Podcast! ⁠Rule of 3 Offense⁠ ⁠https://coachcollins.podia.com/rule-of-3-offense⁠ ⁠Basketball Coaching Newsletter⁠ ⁠Teachhoops.com⁠ Main Topic: Basics of the Rule of 3 Offense: The episode focuses on the Rule of 3 Offense, a flexible and straightforward offensive strategy in basketball. Steve explains the foundational concepts, benefits, and implementation techniques of this offense, aiming to provide coaches with practical insights to enhance their teams' performance. Overview and Resources: Rule of 3 Offense Website: Steve introduces the Rule of 3 Offense website, where coaches can find comprehensive resources, including drills, PDFs, game and practice films. This platform is designed to help coaches effectively implement the offense. TeachHoops.com: He also promotes TeachHoops.com, a one-stop shop for basketball coaches, offering various resources, one-on-one calls, and a community of like-minded coaches. A 14-day free trial is available for those who want to explore the platform's offerings. Basic Concepts of the Rule of 3 Offense: 5-Out Offense: The Rule of 3 Offense begins with a 5-out setup, positioning players on the perimeter with five specific spots: both corners, both wings, and the top of the key. This spacing ensures continuous movement and effective use of space. Continuous Movement: Players are always moving with every pass, creating dynamic offensive opportunities. Both the strong side and weak side movements are crucial for maintaining offensive flow. Backdoor and Slip Plays: Every overplay by the defense should trigger a backdoor cut, which is one of the hardest but most essential skills to teach. Similarly, every pick has the potential for a slip to the basket, adding another layer of offensive threat. Implementation Techniques: Three Dribbles Max: The offense limits players to a maximum of three dribbles. This rule prevents over-dribbling and encourages quick, decisive actions, promoting ball movement and player movement. Reader-Based Cuts: Players are taught to read the defense and make decisions based on their observations. For instance, the player coming off a screen must be able to react to the defense's positioning and decide whether to curl, slip, or cut. Keeping the Lane Open: The offense emphasizes keeping the lane (or highway) open to facilitate driving and attacking opportunities. This spacing creates more scoring chances and keeps the defense on its toes. Benefits of the Rule of 3 Offense: Simplicity and Learning: Players don't need to memorize numerous plays, making it easier for them to learn and execute the offense. The Rule of 3 teaches players how to play and react rather than follow a rigid script. Scouting Challenges: The offense is challenging to scout because it relies on player reads and reactions, making it unpredictable and adaptable to various defensive strategies. Versatility: The Rule of 3 Offense is effective against both man and zone defenses. Coaches can add layers and concepts as needed, tailoring the offense to their team's strengths and needs. Conclusion: Steve concludes the episode by emphasizing the importance of the Rule of 3 Offense for any coach's arsenal. He invites listeners to visit the Rule of 3 Offense website for detailed resources and to explore TeachHoops.com for further coaching development. Steve previews upcoming episodes that will delve deeper into specific aspects of the offense, such as definitions, passing strategies, cutting techniques, and handling zone defenses. He encourages coaches to integrate these concepts into their practices to foster a more dynamic and effective offensive strategy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

    In Episode 393, I discussed how an author platform is not just about visibility or follower count but something far more foundational. Since then, I keep thinking about this idea that a platform is not only something you build for publishing, but it is something that is actively forming you as an author while you build it. Today, I want to explore something that is still deeply misunderstood by many aspiring cookbook authors: what a platform actually does beyond getting you noticed. Because while publishers do care about platform, the real question is not whether your platform is big enough, it's what your platform is shaping you into over time. In this episode, you'll discover: Why a platform is less about visibility and more about forming real relationships with readers that shape your cookbook concept and voice How consistent engagement with readers sharpens your message through real-world feedback, not guesswork The unexpected way a platform builds confidence by replacing self-doubt with real evidence that your work matters Why your platform begins creating opportunities for you - speaking, teaching, collaborations - before you ever "pitch" anything If this episode helped you rethink your platform, I created a simple, practical tool to help you see what you already have, what's working, and what's missing.
