That little white folded box Chinese takeout comes in may be one of the cleverest pieces of food packaging ever invented. What's funny is—it isn't Chinese at all. It was never originally designed to hold noodles or fried rice, and its origin story is far stranger and more American than most people realize. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oyster_pail People are constantly communicating—even when they never say a word. A glance, a shift in posture, crossed arms, the position of the feet, how long someone holds eye contact… body language can reveal confidence, discomfort, attraction, deception, status, and emotion in ways most people completely miss. But many popular beliefs about body language are also wrong or overly simplistic. Joe Navarro, former FBI counterintelligence and counterterrorism agent and one of the world's leading experts on nonverbal communication, explains how body language really works, how to better read the people around you, and how understanding nonverbal behavior can dramatically improve your relationships and communication. He is author of Mastering Connections: Build Stronger Relationships with the Science of Body Language (https://amzn.to/4uB0PBo). Some people always seem rushed, overwhelmed, and behind—while others somehow manage to get an incredible amount done without appearing frantic. The difference may have less to do with time itself and more to do with how people think about time. Laura Vanderkam has spent years studying highly productive people and says many of us approach time completely backward. In our conversation, she explains why feeling “time poor” has become so common, how small changes in priorities can radically change your sense of control, and why having more time may actually begin with changing the story you tell yourself about it. Laura is author of Big Time: A Simple Path to Time Abundance (https://amzn.to/4x0cawK). Birdsong does more than create a pleasant soundtrack outdoors. Researchers have discovered that simply listening to birds sing can measurably reduce stress, anxiety, and even feelings associated with paranoia. Discover how listening to birds sing is truly music for your brain. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-022-20841-0 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS POCKET HOSE: For a limited time, when you purchase a new Pocket Hose Ballistic, you'll get a FREE 360 degree rotating pocket pivot and a FREE thumb drive nozzle!

Send us Fan MailThis week on the podcast Gerald Everette Jones stops by the show again to discuss his latest release Jonathan's Journal. We talk about how some choices made in WW1 still affect us today and more. *****Gerald Everett Jones lives in Santa Monica. He is a member of the Dramatists Guild and Women's National Book Association, as well as a board member of the Independent Writers of Southern California (IWOSC). He is a Film Independent (FILM) Fellow. He holds a Bachelor of Arts with Honors from the College of Letters, Wesleyan University, where he studied under novelists Peter Boynton (Stone Island), F.D. Reeve (The Red Machines), and Jerzy Kosinski (The Painted Bird, Being There).”More about Jonathan's Journal: When a solitary art historian stumbles across a cryptic World War I diary among his mother's antiques, his life quietly implodes. In Jonathan's Journal, award-winning author Gerald Everett Jones invites readers on a richly emotional and historical journey that spans continents and generations. Through dual narratives—one modern, one set during the forgotten campaigns of the Great War in the Near East and India—Jones offers a haunting meditation on identity, duty, and the echoes of conflict that shape who we become.At the center of this literary novel is Jonathan Worthington, a middle-aged professor on sabbatical, whose discovery of an anonymous soldier's meticulously written journal ignites a quest for truth that blurs the line between past and present. The soldier, initially known only by the initials J.F.W., recounts experiences from the trenches of France to the deserts of Mesopotamia and India. As Jonathan deciphers the diary—with help from Elena, a mysterious librarian who abruptly left a position in the diplomatic corps—he suspects more than a historical connection; family secrets may lie hidden in Fred's sparse but emotionally loaded prose.Jones's fifteenth novel is both contemplative and adventurous, seamlessly blending historical research, literary fiction, and intimate personal reflection. Fans of Birdsong, The English Patient, and Possession will find themselves drawn into a world where archival mysteries illuminate inner truths.*****If you would like to contact the show Dauna@betertopodcast.comFollow us on Social MediaYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCX0ETs2wpOHbCuhUNr0XFTw?view_as=subscriberInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomSupport the podcast here: https://www.patreon.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedom©2026 Better To...Podcast with D.

Das Braunkehlchen ist klein und fein und hat es leider extrem schwer - kaum ein anderer Wiesenvogel ist in den vergangenen Jahren so abgeschmiert wie das Braunkehlchen. Warum geht es diesem kleinen Singvogel, der lange Zeit eine typische und häufige Art in der offenen Kulturlandschaft war, bei uns so schlecht? Was sind die Gründe für sein Verschwinden, warum ging das so schnell? Und: was können wir tun, um diesem hübschen kleinen Kerl zu helfen? Eine etwas traurige Folge über das Verschwinden einer Art, die es verdient hat, dass wir besser auf sie aufpassen.

I usually play jazz piano, but on this particular day I was camping with my family — my wife, our two-year-old son, and our two medium-sized Japanese dogs. When I woke up, the scenery and the birdsong were so beautiful that I felt compelled to record the soundscape, and I naturally began playing piano along with it.Birdsong in Suwa District, Japan reimagined by Daisuke Matsubara.

Birdsong is the soundtrack to our world. We have tried to capture its fleeting, ephemeral beauty, and the feelings it inspires, for millennia.Richard Smyth's A Sweet, Wild Note explores science, music, literature, landscape and the thousand different ways in which birdsong has moved us. A bright song on a lonely street can lift our mood, bringing comfort, wonder or joy. But can we learn to listen, really listen, to what the birds are saying? Or do they just tell us back our own tales?More about Richard Smyth.Support the showConnect with me at...GoodReads: Hannah Buschert IG: @HannahgoesbirdingFacebook: @HannahandErikGoBirdingEmail us at HannahandErikGoBirding@gmail.comWebsite: http://www.gobirdingpodcast.comGet a discount at Buteo Books using code: BIRDNERDBOOKCLUB

"Yakutsk looks like it's in the middle of nowhere so I wanted the piece to reflect a journey there. I also wanted the original recording to feel like it was a subtle part of the piece without taking over."Birdsong in Yakutask reimagined by Richard Watts. 

"The recording inspired me by setting me into a more landscape and nature sort of environment. But also being from a place which is a big city, I used synthesizers to make the second part of the track. "There's also filter and sequencing of the birds song in the last part, to make it even more unnatural, before going back to the nature landscape again."Birdsong in Chiba, Japan reimagined by stereopsis.

Step back from the battlefield and into the questions that bring the Great War to life in this special Q&A episode. Drawing on years of battlefield exploration and historical research, we tackle four fascinating listener questions centred on the Battle of the Somme and beyond.We begin on the heights above the battlefield, exploring the idea of Bouzincourt Ridge as a “grandstand view” on 1 July 1916. What could be seen at 7:30am as the attack began? While no direct veteran testimony from that exact vantage point survives, we examine contemporary accounts, artillery observation points, and how the opening moments of the Somme were witnessed from the rear areas.From there, we address a powerful and sobering question about the dead of the Somme. With so many soldiers listed as unidentifiied, how were remains recovered, identified, and buried? Could parts of the same individual have ended up in different graves, and how did organisations like the Imperial War Graves Commission ensure accuracy and dignity in commemoration?Next, we break down the sheer scale of the Somme fighting. Was it a continuous daily offensive, or a series of smaller battles? We explain how the campaign unfolded between July and November 1916, highlighting key phases such as the Battle of Bazentin Ridge and the Battle of Flers-Courcelette to give clarity to one of history's most complex battles.Finally, we turn to literature, examining Birdsong by Sebastian Faulks. How accurate is its depiction of trench life and tunnelling warfare? We compare fiction with historical reality, exploring where the novel captures the truth, and where it takes creative licence.Main Image: Bouzincourt Ridge Cemetery during the Centenary in 2018 (Old Front Line Archives)Sign up for the free podcast newsletter here: Old Front Line Bulletin.You can order Old Front Line Merch via The Old Front Line Shop.Got a question about this episode or any others?

According to the latest Department of Education data, more than 7000 children under six were suspended in the 24 /25 school year in England and the number of children losing learning to repeat suspensions has doubled in two years, with the steepest rises among the youngest.

In episode 25 of the DocArena Podcast, Ross Whitaker catches up with directors Peter Mortimer (The Alpinist, The Dawn Wall) and Nick Rosen (The Alpinist, Reel Rock) to talk about their biggest project to date, The Dark Wizard, which is available to stream now on HBO Max.This HBO Original four-part documentary series, The Dark Wizard, gives an up-close and unflinching portrait of Dean Potter, one of the world's most influential and controversial climbers, BASE jumpers, and highline walkers.This podcast has been made possible with the support of the Fís Éireann/Screen Ireland Stakeholders fund.Listen now on SoundCloud, Apple, Spotify, Acast and Amazon, or subscribe to Film Ireland wherever you get your podcasts.The Dark Wizard traces the jaw-dropping feats that made him a legend, as well as the personal turmoil that defined his life.From an early age, Dean grappled with inner demons that led him to seek the limits of human possibility. Climbing became his outlet and Yosemite National Park became the canvas for his unique talent and artistic expression. As his accomplishments on El Capitan and Half Dome elevated him to hero status in the adventure sports world, his mental state began to fracture and his fierce competitive drive pushed him to try to outdo both himself and others, including rising star Alex Honnold. Ultimately, it was wingsuiting and his lifelong desire to fly that would prove to be his riskiest and most transcendent endeavour.Drawing from decades of archival footage, Dean's personal journals, and intimate interviews with those who knew him best, The Dark Wizard chronicles the triumphs, tragedies, rivalries, romances, and near-death moments that shaped the life of a brilliant yet tormented artist and athlete whose imagination and audacity redefined what the body and mind could do.Episode 4 will be available to stream on HBO Max on 4th May 2026.Peter MortimerPeter grew up in Boulder, Colorado where he learned to rock climb as a kid and made his first home videos of climbing and skiing exploits with friends. After graduating with a geology degree from Colorado College, Peter made his first "real" climbing film (Scary Faces, starring Zac Barr) then went on to get his MFA in film at USC. He's blended his life-long passion for climbing, travel & adventure with his love of telling stories about the incredible people he's met along the way. Peter lives in Boulder with his wife Joss, daughter Pia, son Xavi, and little dogs Macho and Gnarly. Nick RosenNick received his BA in political science from Colorado College, and his masters at Columbia's School of International and Public Affairs. Nick began working as a writer, producer & director for Sender in 2005, and since then has created award-wining feature films, TV programs and creative campaigns.

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, my guest is Dr. Erich Jarvis, PhD, a professor and Head of the Laboratory of Neurogenetics of Language at Rockefeller University and an investigator at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI). We discuss the brain circuits and genes underlying spoken language and why the ability to learn and produce vocalizations is extraordinarily rare in the animal kingdom. We also explore why song likely evolved before language, how gesture and movement share deep neural roots with speech, the neurobiology of stuttering, why childhood is the optimal window for language acquisition, and how physical movement — including dance — may help preserve speech and cognitive function across a lifetime.

Habitat Podcast #381 - In today's episode of The Habitat Podcast, we are back in the studio with Randy Birdsong of HeadHunters TV and The Raven Project! We discuss: Food plots aren't enough—they must be positioned strategically “Bridge food” (like clover) is critical during late winter stress Micro bedding areas (150–200 yards away) increase daylight movement Access can make or break your entire season Design properties in repeatable “deer pods” Rotate food types by season to control movement Don't give deer multiple equal options at the same time Mature bucks are highly patternable across years Smaller, multiple properties can outperform one large farm When neighbors bait—you win by outworking and out-designing them And So Much More!

We roll into the Spring Tour of 1982 on this week's Deadpod, visiting Rochester, New York, where the boys always seemed to play a great show—and this one is no exception. They open with a jumping "Alabama Getaway" that slides into a tight "Greatest Story Ever Told." From there the feel shifts from an easy‑rolling "Dire Wolf" into a bluesy "C C Rider." The band takes flight on a soaring "Bird Song" that stretches out just enough to let you really sink into the jam. They move back into the barroom with "It's All Over Now" and a bruised "Loser." Following a raucous "New Minglewood Blues," the familiar refrain of "China Cat" kicks off a joyous ride into "I Know You Rider," closing out a smartly constructed, highly satisfying first set.

Hey Tinnitus Friends and Family, Cycling was everything to me. And then tinnitus started. Suddenly, the one thing that used to give me peace became unbearable. Why I stopped cycling: First: I was exhausted. All my energy was going into coping with tinnitus. Googling constantly. Trying supplements. Obsessing over whether it was louder or quieter. I had nothing left for cycling. It felt like too much. Second—and this was harder: When I did try to ride after a couple of months, all I could hear was the tinnitus. I'd be cycling through a forest. Beautiful landscape. Birdsong. Wind. And all I could focus on was the ringing. It ruined the whole experience. So I stopped. I told myself: "Just until things settle." Weeks became months. Months became almost a year. I was waiting for the tinnitus to get quieter so I could enjoy cycling again. But it never got quieter. What losing it cost: Losing cycling didn't just mean missing the rides. It meant losing my reset button. No way to clear my head. No way to feel like myself. Life got smaller. ACT principle: When we abandon our values to manage our discomfort, the discomfort doesn't decrease—but the life does. I thought I was protecting myself by avoiding the thing that hurt. But I was actually making my world smaller. And the smaller my world got, the bigger the tinnitus felt. Because there was nothing else competing for my brain's attention. Just me and the ringing. The shift - what changed: The tinnitus didn't get quieter. It's still loud. I can hear it right now. What changed was my relationship with needing it to be quiet. I realized: I was waiting for the tinnitus to not be there before I could enjoy cycling again. So I made a decision: What if I went cycling with the tinnitus? Not waiting for it to go away. Not fighting it. Not needing it to be quiet. Just going anyway. So I got on my bike. And I rode. The tinnitus was still there. Loud and clear. But here's what shifted: I stopped making the ride about the tinnitus. I stopped needing it to NOT be there. I let it be there—like my heartbeat, like my breath when I'm cycling. And for the first time in months, I felt like I could enjoy this again. I could hear the tinnitus and feel the wind. The tinnitus and the movement. The tinnitus and the joy of cycling. What this is really about: This is what values-based living means. This is what Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches: You don't wait for the discomfort to pass before you start living. You do what matters while the discomfort is present. And when you do that, your brain gets evidence: "I can do this. The sound is there, but I'm still me. I'm still living." That's when habituation happens. These days: I cycle all the time. Through forests. Along rivers. In complete nature. My tinnitus is there. Always. I can hear it. Loud and clear. But I don't pay attention to it. Not because I'm forcing myself to ignore it. Because I'm paying attention to something else. What's the thing you're putting on hold? Not a big question. A specific one. One thing you used to do that mattered to you. Cycling? Going to concerts? Reading in silence? Ready to understand where you are in your habituation journey? Take the free habituation quiz: www.habituate.online It takes 2 minutes and will help you: After the quiz, you'll get our free 4-day email course on ACT-based tinnitus habituation. Let me know in the comments: What's the one thing you put on hold? What would it take to try it again? I read every comment. New videos every Friday. — Frieder

Today we head back to February 1982 and the Pauley Pavilion at UCLA for a fine‑sounding tape of a very tasty Grateful Dead set. They come out of the gate with a wonderful Shakedown; Brent and Phil are all over this one, and it makes for a perfect opener. A gritty New Minglewood Blues follows, with Bobby leaning into the slide work here and again later on Little Red Rooster. Jerry is in strong voice on Friend of the Devil and a spacious Bird Song, and the set wraps up in unusual fashion with Bertha sliding straight into Man Smart (Woman Smarter) as a first‑set closer. Grateful Dead Pauley Pavilion – University of California Los Angeles, CA – 2/21/1982 – Sunday One Shakedown Street > New Minglewood Blues  Friend Of The Devil  Me And My Uncle > Big River  Bird Song  Little Red Rooster  Bertha > Man Smart (Woman Smarter) You can listen to this week's Deadpod here:  http://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod022026.mp3
