Send us a textTwo physicians challenge everything you thought you knew about weight loss in this eye-opening discussion on the biology behind obesity. Dr. Rocio Salas-Whalen, a triple board-certified endocrinologist and obesity medicine expert, joins Dr. Daria Hamrah to reframe obesity as a complex medical condition—not a failure of willpower.The conversation delves into why "eat less, exercise more" fails most people long-term. Dr. Salas-Whalen explains how genetics can account for up to 70% of obesity risk, with parents' weight before conception significantly affecting their children's predisposition. Beyond genetics, we learn how hormonal changes, aging, and environmental factors create what she calls "the perfect storm" working against sustainable weight loss.Perhaps most fascinating is the detailed explanation of how GLP-1 medications work by targeting both survival and reward eating patterns. Unlike restrictive diets, these treatments address the biological roots of weight regulation while providing psychological relief many patients describe as life-changing. The doctors share moving patient stories, including one man who transformed so dramatically he was unrecognizable—ultimately quitting his job to become a nutrition specialist after experiencing the profound impact of effective treatment.The episode also covers the alarming impact of endocrine-disrupting chemicals found in everyday items like plastic bottles and food containers, with practical advice on reducing exposure. You'll learn why building muscle might be the most important thing you can do for metabolic health, and why body composition analysis offers far more valuable information than BMI alone.Whether you're struggling with weight, supporting someone who is, or simply interested in the science of metabolism, this conversation offers compassionate, evidence-based perspectives that could change how you think about health forever. Listen now to understand why weight management shouldn't be treated as a cosmetic concern—but rather as the serious medical issue it truly is.Dr. Rocio Salas-WhalenIG: @drsalaswhalenNEW YORK ENDOCRINOLOGY, P.C.1107 PARK AVENUENEW YORK, NY 10128PHONE / (212) 722-ENDO (3636)FAX / 212.722.3639Tweet me @realdrhamrahIG @drhamrah

Buried Secrets: Walmart Santa and Family Face Murder Charges It's one of the most grotesque true crime stories in Georgia's history. Elwyn Crocker Sr., a former Walmart Santa Claus, stands accused of murdering his two children, burying their bodies in his backyard, and continuing life as if nothing happened. But the horror runs deeper: text messages show family members casually discussing burial details, including one that reads, “Cool! How deep?” The children, Mary and Elwyn Jr., were never reported missing. Mary, forensic experts say, starved to death with a BMI of 8.6. Her brother's body was so decomposed the cause of death couldn't be determined—but both deaths were ruled homicides. As this dark saga winds its way through years of court delays, new revelations shake the case: a civil lawsuit now alleges Walmart ignored repeated warnings about Crocker's alleged pedophilic behavior—while he was portraying Santa in their stores. In this episode, we unpack the disturbing messages, the forensic testimony, and the devastating legal implications of both the murder charges and the civil lawsuit. What did Walmart know? Why did no one report the children missing? And how does a man portray holiday cheer while allegedly hiding a house of horror? #elwyncrocker #walmartsanta #doublemurder #childabuse #truecrimegeorgia #marycrocker #effinghamcountyhorror #walmartlawsuit #familicide #truecrimepodcast Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This week we move into the arena of preventive cardiology when we review a recent report from the team at Northwestern and Princeton on the impact of early childhood food insecurity on cardiovascular health of people in young adulthood. How does food insecurity in young childhood impact the cardiac health of adults? Why is most of the impact seen on BMI but not other measures of cardiovascular health. How can food programs that support improved food and nutrition security work to improve long term cardiovascular health of children and adults? Do the benefits of such programs outweight their costs? Dr. Nilay Shah of Northwestern University shares his deep insights into his work and these questions this week.DOI: 10.1001/jamacardio.2025.1062

In this episode, Dr. Jaime Almandoz, Associate Professor of Medicine at UT Southwestern, is joined by Dr. Robert F.

Send us a textMedical weight stigma creates dangerous catch-22 situations for patients seeking care. In this episode, I share Cameron's story of developing gallstones after weight loss surgery, only to be denied treatment because their BMI was "still too high." In this episode, I expose how rapid weight loss can trigger gallstone formation and how medical professionals often ignore evidence-based care when treating higher weight patients. I challenge the "lose weight to get treatment" narrative while offering practical advocacy strategies for navigating a biased healthcare system. Today's journal article was Gregori, Matteo et al. “Day case laparoscopic cholecystectomy: Safety and feasibility in obese patients.” International journal of surgery (London, England) vol. 49 (2018)For free resources on the management of galbladder disease head to noweigh.org And don't forget to check out my masterclass on gallstones Got a question for the next podcast?

James 2:1-13 | May 18, 2025 | Pastor Todd SmithIn this powerful exploration of James 2:1-13, we're confronted with the challenging issue of partiality within the church. The passage reminds us that showing favoritism based on outward appearances or social status directly contradicts our faith in Jesus Christ. We're called to examine our hearts and consider: do we truly see the worth in every person, regardless of their circumstances? The stark contrast between how we might treat a wealthy visitor versus a poor one in our congregation serves as a sobering illustration. This message urges us to align our actions with the 'royal law' of loving our neighbors as ourselves, emphasizing that this commandment is intrinsically linked to our love for God. As we reflect on this, we're challenged to consider how our treatment of others will be judged before Christ, and whether we're living out the mercy and love that has been so freely given to us.To find out more about Crossroads Community Church or to connect with us, visit the following links:→ lifeatcrossroads.org→ facebook.com/lifeatcrossroadsTo give online: lifeatcrossroads.org/giveonline.CCLI License: 2915685CCS WorshipCast License: 9466GRANT OF LICENSE.

It's a 78 RPM Sunday. These episodes should probably more appropriately be labelled spinning my dad's dad's shellac.  In the old days of records coming on 10” disks with one song per side, it made collections rather large. So in order to organize them, record stores would sell large books that you can put several records in. The same you would do with photos. They came with a generic front cover and several sleeves to slip the disks into. My dad has a couple of these albums. I decided to pull out the ten record set inside a, now cream colored, album. But I only have time for ten songs. So get ready to hear the first five records in a personalized collection of 78 RPM disks in Volume 229: White Album Front Half.

Ron Ramin was born and raised in New York City. He earned his undergraduate degree at Princeton University, where he majored in music and studied privately with composer Milton Babbitt. Upon graduation, he moved to Los Angeles where he composed music for 20 Primetime television series and 30 movies/telefilms. Ron is the recipient of a CableACE Award, a Primetime EMMY nomination, and TV/Film Awards from BMI and ASCAP. In recent years he has shifted his focus to composing for the concert hall. This includes "Golden State of Mind," a symphonic suite depicting the beauty & drama of the California landscape and its cultural diversity. “Greetings!" was given its world premiere performance in 2016 by the Marin Symphony, conducted by Music Director Alasdair Neale. His latest work, SEVENTEEN, is a narrative work for orchestra and six on-stage Gen Z narrators. Days after the 2018 mass school shooting in Parkland, Florida, librettist Portia Kamons and Ron began to work on an artistic response to the relentless plague of gun violence in American schools and communities. Their attention soon focused on the rising generation of young people channeling their grief and anger into deliberate and effective action. They were bringing extraordinary commitment, determination, and energy to multiple challenges of their time. Ron & Portia were also determined to bring classical music audiences together with young people for an orchestral performance and thoughtful discussion. From the beginning they committed to employ verbatim text from the young Americans themselves. SEVENTEEN is their story, told in their own words. The Orlando Philharmonic commissioned it and gave the premiere performance Nov 8, 2024. Eric Jacobsen, their innovative music director, conducted the performance and Jamie Bernstein directed the six young on-stage narrators. The orchestra, to its credit, made this a free community event that included a thoughtful discussion and Q&A following the performance. A former Board member of the Society of Composers and Lyricists, Ron currently resides in Northern California and New York City.   Portia Kamons is a producer and librettist working with newly commissioned pieces in theatre, live events, music and feature film. With composer Ron Ramin, she is the co-creator and librettist for SEVENTEEN, a narrative work for Orchestra that received its world premiere by the Orlando Philharmonic on 8 November 2024. She was the Executive Producer for Virtua Creative on the US WW1 Centennial Commemoration narrated by Kevin Costner, as well as Exec Producer for "Visions of Peace" a special project for the WW1 Centennial with President Jimmy Carter. Portia was the lead producer of Tennyson Bardwell's feature film DORIAN BLUES which won 14 awards at festivals worldwide. She was a founding member and the first General Manager of Primary Stages Theatre in New York City, and a Producer for the NextWave Festival at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. For many years she worked for as a producer with En Garde Arts in New York City, and the London International Festival of Theatre in the UK where she lives. She is a regular consultant to Danish web-based documentary platform, OTHER STORY.     website: www.seventeeninamerica.com Instagram: @seventeen_in_america  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61561439852395 email: hello@seventeeninamerica.com Make sure you SUBSCRIBE to Crushing Classical, and maybe even leave a nice review!  Thanks for joining me on Crushing Classical!  Theme music by DreamVance.

On this episode of The STL Bucket List Show, host Lucas Farrell sits down with Marlin Bonds—Founder & CEO of Hypno Loops, and a name you might recognize from the music world. Marlin is a 7x platinum, 2x Grammy-nominated, BMI award-winning producer and songwriter from St. Louis whose work has been featured everywhere—from Grey's Anatomy and ESPN to K-pop chart-toppers and Netflix's Love Is Blind.But Marlin's latest chapter is something completely different—and deeply personal. After the loss of both his father and newborn son, he began using affirmations and meditation to heal. When the tools available didn't quite connect, he took his experience in the studio and created something new: a sound-based wellness tool designed to rewire your mindset through rhythm and repetition. That idea became Hypno Loops, a mindful tech platform that's helping people break negative thought cycles and tap into self-growth through personalized audio experiences.We dive into his journey from the music industry to mental health innovation, the science behind rhythmic looping, and how St. Louis continues to shape his story.Support the show

Episode 2976: Adda Bjarnadottir examines the popular belief that drinking more water leads to weight loss, revealing that while water can aid metabolism, reduce appetite, and replace high-calorie beverages, the evidence for water alone causing weight loss is weak. Still, staying hydrated can support healthier habits and contribute to long-term weight management when paired with other lifestyle changes. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/drinking-water-helps-with-weight-loss Quotes to ponder: "Drinking water can help burn calories and reduce hunger cravings." "Drinking water may help increase your metabolic rate and how much energy (or calories) you burn." "The benefits are even greater when you replace sugary beverages with water."

May 11, 2025 | Pastor Todd SmithIn this powerful message, we explore the profound metaphor of motherhood as a model for Christian ministry. Drawing from 1 Thessalonians 2:7-9, we see how the Apostle Paul likens his ministry to that of a nursing mother, emphasizing three key traits: gentleness, affection, and sacrifice. This comparison challenges us to reflect on how we care for others in our own spiritual walk. Are we approaching our relationships and ministry with the tenderness and nurturing spirit of a loving mother? The message reminds us that true Christian service isn't about projects or numbers, but about souls that matter deeply to God. It encourages us to cultivate a heart of compassion, to be 'affectionately desirous' of others, and to willingly sacrifice for the sake of the gospel. As we contemplate these truths, we're invited to examine our own attitudes in serving others and to strive for a ministry marked by the same selfless love that characterizes motherhood.To find out more about Crossroads Community Church or to connect with us, visit the following links:→ lifeatcrossroads.org→ facebook.com/lifeatcrossroadsTo give online: lifeatcrossroads.org/giveonline.CCLI License: 2915685CCS WorshipCast License: 9466GRANT OF LICENSE.

Drawing from 1 Thessalonians 2:7-9, we see how the Apostle Paul likens his ministry to that of a nursing mother, emphasizing three key traits: gentleness, affection, and sacrifice. This comparison challenges us to reflect on how we care for others in our own spiritual walk. Are we approaching our relationships and ministry with the tenderness and nurturing spirit of a loving mother? The message reminds us that true Christian service isn't about projects or numbers, but about souls that matter deeply to God. It encourages us to cultivate a heart of compassion, to be 'affectionately desirous' of others, and to willingly sacrifice for the sake of the gospel. As we contemplate these truths, we're invited to examine our own attitudes in serving others and to strive for a ministry marked by the same selfless love that characterizes motherhood.To find out more about Crossroads Community Church or to connect with us, visit the following links:→ lifeatcrossroads.org→ facebook.com/lifeatcrossroadsTo give online: lifeatcrossroads.org/giveonline.CCLI License: 2915685CCS WorshipCast License: 9466GRANT OF LICENSE.

Sometimes it feels like the end of the world and Jesus' return may never come, and sometimes it feels like it could be today or tomorrow – and if the Lord does return tomorrow, praise God – Come, Lord Jesus! But either way, because He will return, the way we live because of it should change today. So how should we live while we wait for Christ's return?

Happy mothers day. This one's for my mother who we lost ten years ago this month. As we go through this large record collection, I can tell which records my mom might have picked out. This is one of them. It's a self-titled debut album from a singer who already had a hit single and a starring role in a popular TV show. He was just a bit of a heartthrob. So get ready to hear a singer and actor who gave up that life to save lives in Volume 228: A Bobby Happy Mothers Day.

In this powerful episode of Her Best SELF podcast, we dismantle the widely misused BMI scale and reveal why this outdated measurement has no place in your recovery journey. Learn the problematic origins of BMI, the scientific evidence against its validity, and discover more meaningful ways to understand health and healing while navigating eating disorder recovery. What You'll Learn: The surprising origin story of BMI (it wasn't created by health professionals!) Scientific studies proving BMI is an inaccurate measure of individual health Why BMI disproportionately harms certain populations and body types Better alternatives for understanding your body's health during recovery Practical tips for responding when healthcare providers focus on BMI How releasing attachment to numbers supports lasting recovery Research Mentioned: International Journal of Obesity study on metabolic health markers Journal of the American Medical Association research on BMI and mortality rates University of Pennsylvania research on ethnic differences in body composition Quotes from the Episode: "Your body is not a math problem to be solved. Your worth is not determined by where you fall on a chart created for 19th-century population statistics." "True health is about how your body functions, not how you measure against an arbitrary mathematical formula." Recovery Action Step: The next time someone tries to reduce your health to a BMI number, remember the science backing why this measurement is fundamentally flawed. Practice responding with confidence about your commitment to more meaningful health markers in your recovery.

Episode Summary: In this episode, Dr. Ali Novitsky — expert in obesity medicine — explores the powerful link between stress and hunger. While many recognize stress affects eating, Dr. Novitsky explains the underlying science, behavioral patterns, and offers tools to manage stress-driven eating with compassion.Understanding Stress ResponsesDr. Novitsky explains that responses to stress vary widely. Some lose their appetite during stress, while others overeat. This depends on physiology, past experiences, and genetics. It's not about willpower; it's about biology and behavior.The Role of HormonesAdrenaline (acute stress): Suppresses hunger during “fight or flight” by slowing digestion.Cortisol (chronic stress): Increases appetite and cravings, especially for sugar and fat.Ghrelin: The “hunger hormone,” rises with stress, intensifying hunger cues.Leptin: The “fullness hormone,” can be blunted by chronic stress, leading to overeating.Acute vs. Chronic StressShort-term stress may shut down appetite. Chronic stress, however, causes lasting hormonal shifts that increase hunger, slow metabolism, and may cause leptin resistance. Dr. Novitsky explains how chronic stress and dieting can disrupt satiety signals and lead to weight challenge — even in those with a “normal” BMI.Behavioral & Genetic ComponentsCoping with food often starts in childhood. Learned behaviors and genetic predispositions influence whether one turns to food under stress. Dr. Novitsky shares her personal experience using food for emotional comfort, highlighting the importance of empathy over shame.Tools to Navigate Stress EatingSomatic Stress Scale (1–10) from DBT helps identify rising stress before acting on it.Mindful Pauses: Ask, “Am I hungry or triggered?”Compassionate Self-Talk: Replace guilt with curiosity.Nourishing Alternatives: Movement, breathwork, journaling, or support.Regulate First: Focus on emotional regulation before dietary restriction.Key InsightManaging stress is a foundation for managing hunger. When we understand our body's signals and respond with awareness and kindness, we create sustainable habits. Dr. Novitsky reminds us we're human, not broken—and we're in this together.Final ThoughtThere's no shame in stress eating. With knowledge, tools, and compassion, we can make empowered, healthier choices. Dr. Novitsky signs off with gratitude and love.Timestamps00:00:22 - Overview of Stress and Hunger00:00:52 - Individual Responses to Stress00:01:25 - Genetics and Stress Response00:01:46 - Acute vs. Chronic Stress00:02:06 - Hormones Involved in Stress Response00:02:28 - Adrenaline and Acute Stress00:03:43 - Cortisol and Chronic Stress00:05:00 - Insulin and Blood Sugar00:05:20 - Ghrelin and Hunger00:06:13 - Weight Loss and Stress00:06:47 - Leptin and Satiety00:07:30 - Leptin Resistance Explained00:08:02 - Normal Weight Obesity00:09:05 - Critique of BMI00:10:12 - Leptin Resistance and Metabolic Rate00:11:22 - Chronic Dieting and Leptin Resistance00:12:01 - Summary of Hormones and Stress00:13:43 - Genetic Component of Emotional Eating00:18:09 - Empathy and Emotional Eating00:21:09 - Identifying Patterns of Stress Eating00:24:08 - Recognizing Stress Levels00:25:01 - Stress Scale and Emotional Regulation00:27:07 - Chronic Stress and Hunger00:29:04 - Positive Stress and Dysregulation00:30:09 - Conclusion and Final ThoughtsFollow Dr. Ali Novitsky on Socials⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠Work with Dr. Ali• Beginner Strength Training Program – 12 months for only $199! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Enroll TODAY⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠• Total Fitness Program – A 12-month mind-body experience. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Enroll HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠• The Fit Collective® x InBody USA/Canada – Get 15% off select models. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click HERE⁠

James 1:22-27 | May 4, 2025 | Pastor Josh GoertzenIn this powerful message, we're challenged to move beyond merely hearing God's Word to truly living it out. James 1:22-27 serves as our guide, reminding us that being 'doers of the word' is the essence of authentic faith. We're encouraged to look carefully and persevere in God's Word, not just glancing at it like a mirror we quickly forget. The key to this transformation? Growing in our love for Jesus by truly grasping His immense love for us. This isn't about mustering up willpower, but about letting Christ's love fuel our actions. We're called to watch our speech, care for the vulnerable, and remain unstained by the world. These practical steps reflect a faith that's alive and active, mirroring Jesus' own life as the Word made flesh. As we partake in communion, we're invited to rest in the gospel, remembering that our salvation comes not from our own doing, but from Christ's perfect fulfillment of God's Word on our behalf.To find out more about Crossroads Community Church or to connect with us, visit the following links:→ lifeatcrossroads.org→ facebook.com/lifeatcrossroadsTo give online: lifeatcrossroads.org/giveonline.CCLI License: 2915685CCS WorshipCast License: 9466GRANT OF LICENSE.

Jesus told us to be always ready for His return. In the last message, "It's The End of the World as We Know It", we saw how Jesus said, “I've told you everything ahead of time.” Everything we need to know, He has told us to prepare us. So – it's not our responsibility to know all the details about the end and His return, but it is our responsibility to be ready for it. So what should we know to be ready for His return?5-Day Devotional - https://www.theharbor.life/blog/tag/hope-beyond-the-end-don-t-worry-be-readyDiscussion Questions - https://storage2.snappages.site/PJBKS3/assets/files/HBTE3.pdfMessage Notes - https://notes.subsplash.com/fill-in/view?page=Byvlwobxee________________________________________________________________________Subscribe so you don't miss a thing!Christian Copyright Solutions (CCS, BMI, ASCAP, SESAC)License: #14753Find us on:YouTube: YouTube.com/TheHarborInstagram: Instagram.com/TheHarbor_lifeFacebook: Facebook.com/TheHarbordotlifeWebsite: https://www.TheHarbor.lifeWatch/listen on The Harbor AppNew episode every week!

We now pull out the third record from this seven disk box set. A record that features a relatively unknown work AND probably one of the most famous works in music history. Talk about a dichotomy.   This is music from the immortal Ludwig Van Beethoven. His symphonies live on in performances to this very day.   Plus I decided to play three movements from each symphony. I thought this joint needed some classing up.   So, settle in and get ready to hear the man who is said to have set music free in Volume 227: Beethoven's 4th & 5th.   For more information about this album, see the Discogs webpage for it.    Here is the promised Leonard Bernstein video.    Credits and copyrights   Beethoven, René Leibowitz, The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, The Beecham Choral Society – The Nine Symphonies Of Beethoven Ludwig van Beethoven Label: Reader's Digest – RD 4-6 Format: 7 x Vinyl, LP Box Set Released: 1966 Genre: Classical Style: Romantic, Choral   This is record 3 of a 6 record set.

Send us a textShort Summary: The flaws of nutrition epidemiology with Dr. John SpeakmanAbout the guest: John Speakman, PhD is a professor at the University of Aberdeen and runs a lab in Shenzhen, China, focusing on energy balance, obesity, and aging. Note: Podcast episodes are fully available to paid subscribers on the M&M Substack and everyone on YouTube. Partial versions are available elsewhere. Transcript and other information on Substack.Episode Summary: Dr. John Speakman explores the pitfalls of nutrition epidemiology, a field that links diet to health outcomes like cancer and obesity but often produces contradictory results. They discuss flawed methods like 24-hour recalls and food frequency questionnaires, which rely on memory and are prone to bias, and introduce Speakman's new tool using doubly labeled water to screen implausible dietary data. The conversation highlights systematic biases, such as under-reporting by heavier individuals, and emerging technologies like photo diaries and AI for better dietary tracking.Key Takeaways:Nutrition epidemiology studies often contradict each other due to unreliable methods.Common techniques like 24-hour recalls & food frequency questionnaires suffer from memory issues, portion size issues, and systematic biases, often underestimating food intake.Heavier individuals (higher BMI) under-report food intake more, skewing associations between diet & obesity.Speakman's tool, based on 6,500 doubly labeled water measurements, predicts energy expenditure to flag implausible dietary survey data.Emerging technologies, like smartphone photo diaries and AI food identification, promise more accurate dietary tracking than traditional surveys.Randomized controlled trials, not surveys, provide the most reliable dietary insights; single-day intake surveys linked to outcomes years later are dubious.Speakman advises ignoring most nutrition epidemiology headlines due to their inconsistency and lack of prognostic value for behavior change.Related episode:Support the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, etc. at the M&M Substack Affiliates: Lumen device to optimize your metabolism for weight loss or athletic performance.

Practical Awareness-Based Strategies for Eating (PASE): A Pilot and Feasibility Randomized Trial examines the effectiveness of a mobile mindfulness-based intervention, Eat Right Now (ERN), targeting reward-related eating to promote weight loss. This episode delves into the groundbreaking findings of Dr. Judson Brewer and his collaborators, who conducted a six-month randomized trial on adults with a BMI ≥25 kg/m². The study highlights the feasibility of ERN, both with and without asynchronous coaching, as a scalable intervention for improving eating behaviors and achieving moderate weight loss. Tune in as we explore how mindfulness can recalibrate food rewards, disrupt maladaptive eating habits, and foster long-term health behavior changes.Reference:Arterburn D, Garcia R, Rosenberg D, Johnson E, Mettert K, Ng J, Brewer J.
