Environmental neuroscientist Marc Berman drops a revelation that could transform how you think about your daily struggles with focus, stress, and mental clarity: your brain has two completely different attention systems, and modern life is systematically destroying one of them. While we scroll through endless feeds believing we're taking "mental breaks," we're actually depleting the very cognitive resource we need most to achieve our goals, control our impulses, and become our best selves. Berman's groundbreaking research reveals that something as simple as a 20-minute walk in nature can be as effective as ADHD medication for focus, while looking at curved edges in natural environments literally makes people think more about spirituality. You'll discover why your environment isn't just influencing your mood—it's rewiring your brain, shaping your behavior, and determining whether you become the person you're capable of being.Marc's book Nature and the Mind: The Science of How Nature Improves Cognitive, Physical, and Social Well-BeingIn this episode you will:Discover the two attention systems in your brain and why one is being hijacked by modern technology, leaving you mentally fatigued and unable to focus on what matters mostTransform your understanding of "rest" by learning why scrolling social media when tired actually drains you further, while nature exposure restores your cognitive batteryBreak through mental fog and decision fatigue using Berman's five daily strategies that environmental neuroscientists use to optimize their brains for peak performanceUncover shocking research showing that 11 trees per city block provides health benefits equivalent to a $20,000 income increase, and why hospital patients with nature views heal a full day fasterHarness the power of "softly fascinating" environments that capture your involuntary attention while allowing your directed attention to recover, making you sharper and more resilientFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1824For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Dr. Kevin Tracey – greatness.lnk.to/1812SCDr. Andrew Huberman – greatness.lnk.to/1219SCDr. Caroline Leaf – greatness.lnk.to/1785SC Get more from Lewis!

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio is in Israel and at recording time has just finished his meeting in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Jerusalem office. On Friday, Trump and special envoy Steve Witkoff had dinner with the Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani in New York, after al-Thani held a four-hour-long meeting with Vice President JD Vance and Rubio at the White House. We learn what Rubio has so far said during his meetings in Israel about Israel's strike on Hamas leaders in US-ally Qatar last week. We also speak about the stated agenda for Rubio's visit to participate in the opening of the Pilgrims' Path excavated tunnel that leads from east Jerusalem's City of David to the Temple Mount plaza. Qatar is still fuming over last week's attack on its soil. Qatar’s prime minister accused Israel of “state terrorism,” and said its attack in Doha last week targeting Hamas’s leaders was “an attack on the principle of mediation itself,” but nevertheless vowed to continue efforts to reach a ceasefire. Berman explains why the country will continue to serve as a mediator, even as it may attempt to stir trouble for Israel in other realms. Israel is building two new aid distribution sites, which, according to the military, will be handed over to the US- and Israeli-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation in the coming days. The IDF invited journalists to visit the sites on Wednesday before they become operational. Berman was there and reports back on what he saw, and how the war may look moving forward. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's newest podcast series, Friday Focus. Each Friday, join host deputy editor Amanda Borschel-Dan and diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman for a deep dive into what's behind the news that spins the globe. It’s September 15, 2020, and on the South Lawn of the White House, a group of leaders from the United States, Israel, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain assembled to mark a once-unlikely normalization agreement. Berman talks us through why these countries were originally included in the accords and which were on deck before the Hamas massacre of 1,200 on October 7, 2023, that launched the Gaza War. We hear what gains were made through these accords -- and what setbacks there have been since the Gaza War erupted. We also discuss how Israel’s recent attempted assassination of the Hamas leadership this week in Qatar may affect relations with Gulf States moving forward. Friday Focus can be found on all podcast platforms. This episode was produced by the Pod-Waves.

One afternoon you decide to snub your responsibilities and go for a hike. You spend a few hours in the woods or the mountains. You study the bark of trees, you bathe in birdsong, you let your eyes roam along a distant ridgeline. And you come back feeling better, restored somehow—like you have more energy, more patience, more bandwidth. We've all, I'm guessing, had experiences like this. But what's behind these effects? Why would nature restore us? What's the evidence that it really does? And what is even being restored, actually? My guest today is Dr. Marc Berman. Marc is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Chicago where he directs the Environmental Neuroscience Lab. Marc is also the author of a new book, Nature and the Mind: The Science of How Nature Improves Cognitive, Physical, and Social Well-Being. Here, Marc and I talk about Attention Restoration Theory—the idea that nature experiences restore our limited capacity for directed attention. We discuss the broader field of "environmental neuroscience," which Marc helped kickstart and continues to lead. We range across studies from Marc's lab that show nature's beneficial effects—on attention, on mood, and on health. We talk about what the active ingredients in nature seem to be. And we discuss the field's prospects for understanding how nature impacts not just the mind, but the brain itself. Along the way, Marc and I touch on: soft versus harsh fascination; the elusive concept of "mental energy"; trees, wood, fire, and rain; the architect and theorist Christopher Alexander; the value of fake plants; fractalness in space and time; curvature and spirituality; and how nature tends to steer our thoughts in certain directions. Needless to say, we're stoked to be kicking off a new season of Many Minds. If you're new to the show, welcome!

Welcome to The Times of Israel's newest podcast series, Friday Focus. Each Friday, join host deputy editor Amanda Borschel-Dan and diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman for a deep dive into what's behind the news that spins the globe. This week, Berman takes up the host role for an in-depth interview with author Yaakov Katz about his new book, "While Israel Slept: How Hamas Surprised the Most Powerful Military in the Middle East," which he co-wrote with Amir Bohbot. A former military correspondent, Katz served as editor in chief of The Jerusalem Post from 2016-2023, leaving just before the war. Currently a senior fellow at the Jewish People Policy Institute in Jerusalem, Katz is the author or co-author of four books. Katz talks about the ignored "alarm bells" indicating that Hamas was about to launch a major attack prior to October 7, 2023. He speaks about the uncertainty whether Hamas was conducting a drill and how warning signs were disregarded because they didn't fit the paradigm built by Israel around the capabilities of Hamas. "We were so infatuated, in love with the signal intelligence, the visual intelligence. We knew everything because we had the technology. But while we thought we knew, we did not know what their intentions were, we did not know what they were really planning," said Katz. Katz delves into the goals of Hamas head Yahye Sinwar and how many he achieved, despite the terrorist group's degradation. We hear an assessment of the war, almost two years in, as well as who should be running Gaza in the day after. Friday Focus can be found on all podcast platforms.

We're living in an attention economy—and most of us are broke. But what if the secret to restoring your focus, improving your mental health, and even reducing crime rates wasn't found in an app or a pill, but in a tree?In this episode, we speak with University of Chicago psychologist Marc Berman, whose research on “soft fascination” and nature's cognitive effects is reshaping how we think about everything from urban planning to depression treatment. From groundbreaking hospital studies to surprising results with plastic plants, Berman's work uncovers the deep—and often invisible—power that natural environments hold over our minds and bodies.Whether you're a city planner, a parent, or just someone feeling mentally fatigued, this conversation may just change the way you think about a walk in the park.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. During today’s day of disruption in the capital, protesters calling for a hostage deal have escalated their tactics, including torching bins in Jerusalem -- which police said damaged a car and caused nearby residents to be evacuated -- and gaining access to the roof of the National Library, near the Knesset, to hang banners. The activists are pushing for renewed ceasefire-hostage release negotiations this week ahead of the IDF's "Gideon's Chariots B" operation. Berman updates us on the communications between the mediation teams. The IDF said today that it is boosting operational and logistical preparedness for reservists called up for the military’s planned Gaza City offensive. Over the coming weeks, troops will participate in open-terrain and urban warfare exercises to strengthen readiness across the Gaza Strip. At the same time, yesterday, some 350 reservists signed a mass petition stating that they refused to rejoin the war. Berman speaks about the willingness of reservists to continue to fight and how the IDF is taking their needs into consideration. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio may visit Israel in two weeks, an Israeli official told Berman yesterday. We hear what may be on his agenda. Belgian Foreign Minister Maxime Prevot announced Tuesday that Belgium will recognize the State of Palestine at the United Nations General Assembly later this month. Berman describes how the slew of countries may recognize the Palestinian state at the GA and how European countries are already clamping down on Israel. French President Emmanuel Macron on Tuesday decried the “unacceptable” US decision not to grant visas to Palestinian officials, including Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas ahead of the United Nations General Assembly later this month, when France is also set to recognize a Palestinian state. A day before the GA kicks off, France and Saudi Arabia are holding a conference in New York promoting a two-state solution on September 22. We hear what the goals are for this conference and speculate on whether the visa decision may be reversed. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. The government's weekly cabinet meeting is held in a secure location on Sunday after the IDF acknowledged it struck and killed the prime minister of Yemen’s Houthi government and several other ministers, and the Houthis have pledged to retaliate, says Berman. Following a Channel 12 report that three of Israel's top security officials are expected to argue that Israel should accept the current hostage deal that releases only some of the hostages, Berman believes Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will continue to demand a comprehensive deal that releases all hostages, as he has been consistently calling for that and is backed by US President Donald Trump. Berman discusses his interview in Gaza with the IDF's 7th Armored Brigade, a combat team that lost six hostages, two of whom are still alive and four whose bodies are held by Hamas. The brigade is working to take down buildings controlled by Hamas to reach the underground tunnels. The current diplomatic situation revolving around the prime minister's recent statement recognizing the Armenian genocide committed by the Ottoman Empire in the early 20th century was presumably coordinated by Netanyahu with the Foreign Ministry, says Berman, possibly as a way of getting back at Turkey for its aggressive measures taken against Israel throughout the war.

Judge Richard Berman, who oversaw parts of the Epstein proceedings, became one of the few figures within the judiciary to openly acknowledge the deep failures in how the system handled Epstein's victims under the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA). He recognized that survivors were denied their legal right to be informed, consulted, and treated with fairness during the secretive crafting of Epstein's Non-Prosecution Agreement in 2007. Berman repeatedly emphasized that the survivors were treated as afterthoughts, sidelined in a case where their voices should have been front and center.To contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.cnbc.com/2019/11/26/judge-in-jeffrey-epstein-case-calls-for-prison-reforms-after-death.htmlBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Sermon by Rabbi Sarah Berman, "Seeing the Blessing and the Curse"August 22, 2025
The third judge has now denied the Trump administration's request to release Epstein's grand jury documents, and while it's being spun as a setback, the truth is the administration knew this was coming all along. Grand jury materials are sealed by design, and no court was going to break decades of precedent. The request was never about actually getting those documents—it was about making a move that was guaranteed to fail, so the administration could later point to the denial as proof that the system had tied their hands. In other words, the loss was baked into the strategy from the start.Now the denial has become the centerpiece of a carefully scripted narrative. The administration and its allies are out in force, claiming they sought transparency only to be blocked by the courts, painting themselves as victims of a cover-up. But the truth is, if they truly wanted the Epstein files exposed, there were other levers of power they could have pulled. Instead, they opted for a performative stunt designed to fail, knowing the denial would hand them a scapegoat. It's political theater masquerading as justice, and while the spin benefits them, the victims remain forgotten and the truth stays buried.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Judge declines to unseal grand jury material in Jeffrey Epstein case - CBS News

In this episode of Historical Happy Hour, bestselling author Jane Healey chats with Ella Berman about her riveting new novel LA Women, set in 1960s and 70s Hollywood. The book explores the complex friendship—and eventual betrayal—between two ambitious female writers navigating a male-dominated literary and artistic world. Berman reveals how her own upbringing in LA and London, her research in Laurel Canyon, and a real-life family friend who lived through the era shaped the story's vivid setting and emotional core. The conversation dives deep into the novel's dual timelines, its themes of artistic integrity, feminism, and creative freedom, as well as the bittersweet challenges of writing under deadline while raising a child. Both authors reflect on the joys and pressures of modern authorship in a social-media-driven world.

In this episode, I spoke with author Ann Berman about her book "Louis Graveraet Kaufman: The Fabulous Michigan Gatsby Who Conquered Wall Street, Took Over General Motors, and Built the World's Tallest Building" This fascinating biography recounts the life and legacy of a titan of American banking, Louis Graveraet Kaufman (1870–1942). Also known as LG, he was a Gatsbyesque figure born in Michigan's Upper Peninsula who married into great wealth and then amassed far more of his own.Under LG, New York's Chatham Phenix National Bank and Trust Company became one of the nation's largest banks and the first in New York to boast a network of branches. When he was denied entry into the exclusive, Protestant, old-money Huron Mountain Club, LG responded by building his own retreat: the world's largest log lodge, a 26,000-square-foot behemoth near Marquette, Michigan. Christened Granot Loma, it became the site of lavish Prohibition-era parties, attracting many celebrities who came in private rail cars to enjoy jazz and liquor chez Kaufman.

Can you manipulate blood flow in the tumor microenvironment to optimize drug delivery? In this episode of the BackTable Podcast, interventional oncologist Dr. Zachary Berman (UC San Diego) joins host Dr. Christopher Beck to discuss real-world applications of pressure-enabled drug delivery in local, regional liver-directed therapies like TACE and Y90.---This podcast is supported by:TriSalus Life Scienceshttp://trinavinfusion.com/---SYNPOSISThe conversation begins with an overview of the tumor microvascular environment, focusing on the abnormal nature of the new vessels that feed tumors. They then discuss the genesis of pressure-enabled drug delivery and the theory behind its efficacy. Dr. Berman explains the TriNav catheter's micro-valve design, its anti-reflux properties, and how these features enhance tumor drug delivery. He walks through his own procedure technique, comparing and contrasting it to standard embolization, and details the utility of pressure-enabled drug delivery in lobar radioembolization and larger tumors. They also explore the benefits of both balloon occlusion and microvalve catheters.Real-world cases—including neuroendocrine tumors, segmental HCC, and more—illustrate the thought process around when to use specialized technologies. The episode wraps up with a discussion of the future implications for this technology in other pathologies, cost considerations, and the potential for enhancing drug delivery with innovative approaches.---TIMESTAMPS00:00 - Introduction01:39 - The Tumor Microenvironment06:59 - Pressure-Enabled Drug Delivery Explained09:37 - Technical Aspects of Pressure-Enabled Catheters21:48 - Case 1: Grade 3 Neuroendocrine Tumor34:06 - Case 2: Hepatocellular Carcinoma with Tumor and Vein36:01 - Case 3: TACE for Segmental HCC in Decompensated Cirrhosis38:58 - Case 4: Large Heterogenous Cholangiocarcinoma40:40 - Case 5: Lobar Neuroendocrine Tumor42:38 - Case 6: Segmental HCC with Central Necrosis47:52 - Best Practices and Technical Considerations57:52 - Future Directions in Pressure-Directed Embolotherapy59:48 - Conclusion and Final Thoughts---RESOURCESJVIR 2024 Jaroch et al.:https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38969336/

So the date's going really well. The drinks are flowing, the laughter is effortless, the chemistry? Off the charts. One thing leads to another... and you sleep together. Now you're lying in bed, wondering: Was that a mistake? Should you have waited? Does having sex so soon make you seem less serious—or just honest about your desires? Can it create real connection, or does it shut the door before anything deeper begins? In this Language of Love Session, I respond to a heartfelt question from Susie, who finds herself second-guessing her decision to have sex on the first date. I explore the emotional landmines of modern dating—especially in a world of ghosting, dating apps, and conflicting advice. You will learn: Why dating apps have changed the rules—and how to protect your heart How delaying sex can reveal true intentions (without playing games) What oxytocin does to your brain (and why it matters after sex) The truth about “earning” intimacy—and how it builds mutual respect Why your sexuality is a gift, and how to share it with intention When first-date sex does work—and what to watch for if it doesn't If you've ever second-guessed sleeping with someone too soon—or felt like you gave too much too fast—this one's for you. And if someone disappears after sex, I explain why that says everything about them, not you. Have your own story to share or a question for Dr. Berman? Email languageoflovepod@gmail.com.

If you're in a season of change and find yourself wanting to try new things, the idea of possible rejection and failure can stop you before you start.As I'm in a season of evolution myself, I've been thinking a lot about what it takes to start something new. I've also been reading Worthy by IT Cosmetics founder and entrepreneur, Jamie Kern Lima. One of my absolute favorite learnings she shares from her experience building a business that started in her living room to then selling it for $1.2 billion to L'Oréal is that rejection is a reminder that you're one of the brave ones. If you're feeling called to start something new or you're in the midst of doing so now, know that I'm cheering you on!Send Julie a text!!------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I absolutely LOVE being the host and producer of "Women with Cool Jobs", where I interview women who have unique, trailblazing, and innovative careers.

Two anonymous survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse filed letters on August 4, 2025, expressing deep frustration with the Justice Department's request to unseal grand jury transcripts, which they say has treated them as "pawns in political warfare," rather than as survivors deserving of respect and transparency. They accused the DOJ and FBI of prioritizing the redaction—and effective shielding—of powerful third parties over the interests of the victims. One wrote, “I am not some pawn in your political warfare,” while the other stated explicitly: “The DOJ's and FBI's priority is protecting the ‘third‑party,' the wealthy men, by focusing on scrubbing their names off the files of which the victims ‘know who they are'”Both survivors demanded that victims' identities be fully redacted and requested that their attorneys be allowed to review any proposed redactions before any records are made public. They also urged Judge Berman to appoint a third party to oversee the redaction process to ensure anonymity safeguards. Their letters reflect alarm that the current unsealing effort might retraumatize survivors and fail to center their voices, given that only law enforcement officers testified before the grand juries—not victims or witnesses—and that transcripts cover testimony from just two law‑enforcement agentsto contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein victim condemns ‘political warfare' in Trump administration's effort to release grand jury transcripts | The Independent

In this episode of the Filmmaker Mixer Podcast, we sit down with directors Ryan Hartsell and Scott Berman to discuss their visionary project, Resolution: A Cinephonic Rhapsody for the Soul, a cinematic journey that fuses music and storytelling in collaboration with The Polyphonic Spree. Set to the band's album Salvage Enterprise, the film is a sensory and emotional experience that explores themes of resilience, renewal, and transformation. Hartsell and Berman walk us through how this genre-blurring piece came to life—from the deep integration of sound and visuals to the creative risks of pushing cinematic form into something more immersive and soulful.
Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Yesterday, aircraft from Israel, the United Arab Emirates and Jordan airdropped dozens of pallets of humanitarian aid in the northern and southern Gaza Strip. This morning, Israel says more than 120 truckloads of food aid were distributed by the UN and aid agencies in the Gaza Strip on the first day of a partial pause in fighting. Berman explores how Israel's currently softened position is playing out on the global stage and compares it to previous cycles in which Israel allowed more aid into the Strip. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer is set to press US President Donald Trump on ending “the unspeakable suffering” in Gaza when they meet at the US president’s golf resort in Scotland today, according to a Downing Street spokesperson says. The meeting at Turnberry, southwestern Scotland, comes as European countries express growing alarm at the situation in Gaza. What is Trump currently saying about the war in Gaza? Foreign Ministry director general Eden Bar-Tal summoned France’s deputy ambassador Mikaël Griffon for a reprimand at ministry headquarters in Jerusalem yesterday, over French President Emmanuel Macron’s announcement last week that Paris would recognize a Palestinian state. During the dressing down, he accused France of undermining talks for a hostage release deal with Hamas, as well as future negotiations with the Palestinian Authority. Berman delves into the idea that all the pressure on Israel to end the war -- and this "prize" of a state to the Palestinian people -- could harm the ceasefire negotiations and drag out the war with an emboldened Hamas. And we ask, is the UK set to follow France's example? And finally, the home of a Chabad rabbi in Dnipro was hit during a deadly Russian missile attack on the central Ukrainian city early Saturday. We learn about the "Shabbat miracle" that saved his family and hear what is happening with the Jewish community in Ukraine as the war marks some 1250 days.

In case number 19 CR. 490 (RMB), the United States government brought formal criminal charges against Jeffrey Epstein, leading to a court-issued Decision & Order Remanding Defendant. This order came after Epstein's arrest in July 2019 on federal sex trafficking charges involving underage girls. The court reviewed Epstein's bail proposal—which included offering his Manhattan townhouse as collateral and agreeing to strict conditions—but ultimately found that no set of conditions could guarantee his appearance at trial or ensure the safety of the community. The decision emphasized both the serious nature of the charges and Epstein's substantial financial resources and international ties, which posed a clear flight risk.As a result, the court ordered Epstein to be remanded to custody, meaning he was to remain in federal detention without bail until trial. The ruling rejected arguments from Epstein's legal team that he could be trusted to comply with any pretrial release conditions. The court also cited concerns about witness tampering and the possibility of further harm to victims. This decision effectively kept Epstein at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan, where he remained until his controversial death one month later.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein-berman.pdf

Welcome to The Times of Israel's newest podcast series, Friday Focus. Each Friday, join diplomatic reporter Lazar Berman and host deputy editor Amanda Borschel-Dan for a deep dive into what's behind the news that spins the globe. The vast majority of the Zionists in the world are Christian. Israel’s closest allies are majority-Christian or officially Christian countries, and the world’s largest Christian denominations have many of their holiest sites in Israel. At the same time, there’s no adviser for Christian Affairs in the Prime Minister’s Office, no minister tasked with outreach. On today's Friday Focus, we discuss three recent difficult incidents with the Christian world, which official Israel was diplomatically unprepared for. Berman discusses the need for a point person, an office or even a ministry in the Prime Minister's Office who will be tasked with liaising with the Christian world -- just like what is found in the governments of our Muslim neighbors. Friday Focus can be found on all podcast platforms. This episode was produced by the Pod-Waves.

The decision emphasized both the serious nature of the charges and Epstein's substantial financial resources and international ties, which posed a clear flight risk.As a result, the court ordered Epstein to be remanded to custody, meaning he was to remain in federal detention without bail until trial. The ruling rejected arguments from Epstein's legal team that he could be trusted to comply with any pretrial release conditions. The court also cited concerns about witness tampering and the possibility of further harm to victims. This decision effectively kept Epstein at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan, where he remained until his controversial death one month later.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein-berman.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
