Josh Potter is back with another solo episode of The Josh Potter Show, breaking down some of the strangest news stories, viral videos and sports moments making the rounds. This week, Josh watches the body-cam footage from the Jed York arrest, reacts to Cubs star Pete Crow-Armstrong discovering the word “pause,” and tries to figure out why a weather reporter completely loses it during a live forecast. Then things get increasingly bizarre: a parent climbs through a school bus window, a homeless man sues for $10 million after being shot during a burglary, and Josh becomes fixated on the one question nobody seems interested in answering: where did the cup of piss come from? Josh also investigates a disturbing funeral home story involving 57 improperly stored bodies and checks in with the latest contributions from the Roach Reporters.

This week on Better Buildings for Humans, host Joe Menchefski sits down with science journalist and author Lynne Peeples for a fascinating exploration of our internal clocks—and the profound role that light and the built environment play in human health. Drawing from her book The Inner Clock, Lynne explains how circadian rhythms coordinate nearly every system in the body, why our biology depends on the natural cycle of bright days and dark nights, and what can happen when modern life pulls us out of sync.The conversation explores what happens when we spend the vast majority of our lives indoors, often disconnected from the natural light cues our bodies evolved to expect. Joe and Lynne dig into circadian disruption, sleep, cognitive performance, metabolic and cardiovascular health, shift work, and the concept of "light justice"—including the daylight and darkness deserts that disproportionately affect people living, working, learning, or healing in spaces with inadequate access to natural light. They also examine the importance of daylight in schools, hospitals, NICUs, and assisted living facilities, and why building design needs to consider biological health alongside energy efficiency and visual comfort.Joe and Lynne also venture into the emerging science surrounding full-spectrum light, including red and near-infrared wavelengths, mitochondria, and the potential relationship between indoor environments and rising rates of myopia. Along the way, Lynne shares simple ways we can better support our circadian health—from getting outside first thing in the morning and taking "circadian snacks" throughout the day to creating greater contrast between bright days and dark nights. Ultimately, the conversation makes a compelling case for buildings that reconnect us with the dynamic natural environment our bodies were designed for—through daylight, fresh air, movement, changing temperatures, and connection with other people.More About Lynn PeeplesLynne Peeples is an author, keynote speaker, and journalist covering science, health, and the environment.

Ads for GLP-1s are everywhere. This week, we dig into why so many of those ads seem to feature Black women with Sabrina Strings, author of  “Fearing the Black Body” a book about the racial origins of fatphobia. We get into the toxic comment culture around everyone from Lizzo to Ariana Grande, and how the origins of body shaming have all led us to this post-body positive moment. Support public media with NPR+ and enjoy perks for over 25 podcasts like this one.

What happened to the old world?In JT's Mix Tape Episode 95, JT, Bryan and Aaron go down one of the wildest rabbit holes yet — from the millions of skeletons buried beneath Paris and strange population numbers to destroyed architecture, underground cities, ancient technology and the possibility that our accepted historical timeline is missing something enormous.Then things get even stranger.We get into Tesla “ghosts” appearing in graveyards, Tucker Carlson questioning the destruction of America's beautiful old architecture, Larry Ellison and Oracle appearing in Iron Man 2, frightening advances in technology, AI spirituality, transhumanism, technocratic visions for humanity — and the growing trend of billionaires and celebrities building elaborate underground bunkers.Is technology creating a completely new future?Or, as Ecclesiastes says, is there truly nothing new under the sun?Either way, fear is not the answer. Hold fast to Christ and endure to the end.

Sandy Wright, Head of Devices at Scarlet, the first notified body built specifically around software as a medical device. A former doctor who moved from clinical practice into digital health. Sandy now sits on the assessment side of the table, reviewing the very submissions most manufacturers dread putting together.In this episode, we start with the question that trips up so many companies. What actually turns a piece of software into a medical device and why is the wellness boundary still so blurry that entire businesses are straddling the divide without realising it. Sandy shares some of the more unusual examples out there, including AI ambient scribes and augmented reality tools that let surgeons revisit patient scans mid-operation.We then go inside Scarlet itself. Sandy explains why they see themselves as a technology company first and a notified body second, how a combination of expertise, redesigned process and their own internal tooling means customers are not sitting at the back of a queue for months and what genuinely drives faster conformity assessment.The most valuable part for anyone in this space is Sandy's breakdown of where nonconformities actually come from. Clinical evaluation, post-market clinical follow up treated as an afterthought, incomplete software requirements and risk analyses that are too narrow. We also cover the EU AI Act and how it may or may not intersect with MDR, what makes a genuinely good PCCP and Sandy's parting advice on the underrated power of narrative in a regulatory submission.Timestamps[00:01:00] What Actually Turns Software Into a Medical Device[00:03:39] AI Scribes and AR Headsets: SaMD You Might Not Expect[00:06:10] Why Scarlet Sees Itself as a Technology Company First[00:08:43] How Scarlet Cut Assessment Timelines Without Cutting Corners[00:12:12] Clinical Evaluation: The Most Common Source of Findings[00:13:18] Why Post-Market Clinical Follow Up Is Treated as an Afterthought[00:16:20] Risk Management and Why a Narrow Lens Causes Problems[00:16:55] The EU AI Act and How It May Intersect With MDR[00:19:56] From Foundation Doctor to Babylon Health and Beyond[00:22:42] What Separates a Good PCCP From a Box-Ticking OneConnect with Sandy - https://www.linkedin.com/in/wrightsandy/Learn more about Scarlet - https://www.scarlet.cc/Get in touch with Karandeep Badwal - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/karandeepbadwal/ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Karandeep on YouTube - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@KarandeepBadwal⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Medical device training courses delivered by Karandeep through Bywater - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.bywater.co.uk/

What if understanding women's hormones could make you a better partner, father, and man?In this episode of Gent's Talk, host Samir Mourani (@SamirMourani) sits down once again with women's health educator and menstrual cycle expert Miranda Popen for their third conversation — this time going even deeper into the things men were never taught about women's bodies.From periods and puberty to sex drive, fertility, postpartum hormones, pain, relationships, and raising daughters, Miranda breaks down why menstrual health isn't simply a “women's issue” — and why men have a responsibility to understand it too.The conversation explores how fathers can prepare their daughters for their first period without creating shame or embarrassment, why boys should grow up comfortable around tampons and pads, and how something as simple as normalizing conversations about menstruation can completely change the way the next generation views women's health.Miranda also breaks down what actually happens inside the body throughout the menstrual cycle, the role of ovulation and progesterone, what a healthy period can look like, and why symptoms like debilitating cramps shouldn't automatically be accepted as normal.They also get into one of the most misunderstood areas of relationships: hormones and sex drive. Miranda explains why libido can change throughout the menstrual cycle, how sleep and stress affect desire in both women and men, and why understanding what is happening physiologically can help couples better understand each other.The conversation then turns to pregnancy and postpartum health — including fertility after giving birth, ovulation while breastfeeding, tracking the return of the menstrual cycle, and why women often receive enormous amounts of attention during pregnancy only to feel forgotten after the baby arrives.For Samir, now thinking about these conversations through the lens of fatherhood, the question becomes bigger: how do we raise boys who understand women's bodies and fathers who aren't uncomfortable talking to their daughters about periods?This is an honest, educational conversation about women's hormones, menstrual health, periods, puberty, sex drive, fertility, postpartum recovery, relationships, and what men need to understand about the women in their lives.

Three Deaths Filed as Alien Encounters A man walks out for potatoes and doesn't come home for five days.

“We are in the middle of a labyrinth which suggests to us many fake corridors. What's the superpower of literature? Literature is like an antidote against propaganda. Propaganda explains the world easily in a two-dimensional way.  Literature gives you a more complex explanation.

Georgi Gospodinovis widely considered one of the most daring voices in contemporary European literature. His acclaimed novel, The Physics of Sorrow, won the prestigious Jan Michalski Prize in 2016, blending ancient myth and quantum physics to chronicle the delicate realities of post-socialist Eastern Europe.

It begins with an enigmatic psychiatrist opening a clinic that treats Alzheimer's patients by meticulously recreating past decades to match their internal clocks. But the experiment quickly escapes the clinic walls, triggering a pan-European crisis where entire nations hold democratic referendums to choose which era of the past they will retreat into.

As President Trump now says he may rename Lake Ontario to Lake America, which Minnesota body of water would we like to name after ourselves? That's the topic early before a conversation about new statistics regarding cases of CTE among NFL players and Ask Adam Anything.

Dr Eric Davis joins Andy for a major conversation about recovered UAP technology, NHI bodies, alleged government contact and decades of secret reverse-engineering efforts.Davis begins with his bottom line up front, explaining why he believes UAP are real, controlled by non-human intelligence and have interacted with humanity for thousands of years.He discusses the classified evidence he says he has personally examined, including original documents and photographs from a foreign Cold War crash retrieval; the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology and its alleged storage of preserved NHI bodies; a recovered craft apparently abandoned by its occupants; and evidence of contact involving a government office and defence-industry contractor.The conversation also covers Congress, AARO, the White House PURSUE programme, Trump and the SF-312, Holloman, Kingman, Robert Bigelow, James Lacatski, Jay Stratton, the credibility of different NHI morphologies and reverse-engineering programmes allegedly revived every ten years.This interview contains claims based partly on classified material that is not currently available for independent public examination.

In this episode, host Duane Osterlind welcomes physician, trauma-informed coach, and author Dr. Frank Spinelli for an honest conversation about trauma, addiction, and the root causes of shame. Dr. Spinelli shares his personal story—from surviving childhood abuse in the Boy Scouts and helping law enforcement bring his abuser to justice, to experiencing a profound breakdown during the isolation of the COVID-19 pandemic.Together, Duane and Frank explore why addiction and shame stem from the same underlying wound, how to separate healthy guilt from toxic shame, and how reframing shame as a tool rather than a sentence can guide us back toward self-acceptance and alignment with our core values.Key Topics DiscussedTrauma and the Hidden Roots of Addiction: How unaddressed childhood trauma often manifests as compulsive behaviors—whether involving alcohol, food, work, or sex.Shame vs. Guilt: Why guilt focuses on behavior ("I did something bad") while shame attacks identity ("I am bad"), and how the inner voice of shame is often an installed narrative from past abuse or upbringing.The Isolation Trigger: How the removal of external coping routines during the COVID-19 pandemic caused dormant trauma and shame to resurface for millions of people.Shame as Information, Not Indictment: How leaning into shame—rather than running from or numbing it—can reveal where you are out of alignment with your core values.Naming the "Unreliable Narrator": Why personifying and giving a distinct name to your inner critic helps separate your core self from intrusive, shame-based thoughts.Key Frameworks & ToolsThe 4 P's of Emotional RegulationA practical exercise to build "shame literacy" when triggered:Pause: Stop before reacting or speaking.Be Present: Bring awareness to the immediate moment and physical surroundings.Ponder: Evaluate if your emotional response belongs to the present situation or an old memory.Possibilities: Select an intentional, grounded adult response rather than an automatic reaction.The 3 Bodies of Processing ShameSomatic (Physical) Body: Noticing physical sensations (chest tightness, sweating, tension) in the nervous system without judgment.Story Body: Recognizing the internal narrative, challenging the "unreliable narrator," and separating objective facts from emotional thoughts.Relational Body: Understanding how shame builds isolation walls instead of healthy, protective boundaries in relationships.Key Quotes"What if shame is not something we need to move away from? What if we leaned into it and used it not as an indictment, but as information?" — Dr. Frank Spinelli"Guilt is 'I did something bad.' Shame is 'I'm bad.' The voice telling you that you're bad is probably not your own voice—it was installed by someone else." — Dr. Frank Spinelli"Addiction and shame are not separate problems. They're the same wound—they're just expressed differently." — Dr. Frank SpinelliGuest Resources & LinksBook: The Shame Compass: A Radical Framework for Trauma Healing and Self-Acceptance by Dr. Frank SpinelliMemoir: P-Shy by Dr. Frank SpinelliWebsite: FrankSpinelli.comSocial Media: Follow Dr. Frank Spinelli on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube for daily short-form content on overcoming shame.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In the 1920s, workers clearing a hidden dungeon beneath an Irish castle discovered so many human bones they needed horse carts to remove them. An estimated 150 skeletons had been thrown into the pit—some onto spikes waiting below. Then, near the bottom, they found something that shouldn't have been there: a pocket watch manufactured in the 1800s. Someone had apparently still been using the medieval oubliette centuries after the Middle Ages ended. And that's only the beginning. Murdered priests, poisoned mercenaries, ghostly children, a woman in red, and a grotesque entity whose arrival is supposedly announced by the smell of a rotting corpse all belong to the history and folklore of Leap Castle. Tonight, we enter the fortress often called Ireland's most haunted castle... and meet the family that decided to make it their home.

"We steward our lives by staying close to the shepherd who knows how to feed and care for his sheep."   What if the way we've been taught to "steward" our bodies is actually keeping us more focused on our bodies than free in them? In this teaching, Alisa Keeton invites us to take a deeper look at stewardship, and what Scripture actually says about stewarding our bodies. If you've ever felt like you should be doing more, eating better, exercising differently, or getting your body 'right' this conversation is for you.   Alisa walks through a body dissatisfaction scale and explores how easily Christian wellness language can become another way of watching, comparing, and trying to control our bodies. Instead, she offers a different picture: Bodies need shepherding more than stewarding.   Jesus is the Good Shepherd. He knows how to lead, restore, and care for us. Our invitation is to stay close to the One who knows how to care for our whole selves. In this teaching, you'll explore: What body dissatisfaction really is how to identify it in ourselves How body stewardship can unintentionally become another form of control Why bodies are meant to be lived in, not watched The connection between soul hunger and body dissatisfaction What Scripture actually says about stewardship What it looks like to seek Jesus first in a noisy, hyper-visual wellness culture Why we may need a Shepherd, not another set of rules   Watch this teaching on Youtube: https://youtu.be/If8NlxBuKVU   Practice & Reflection The next time you notice yourself watching, measuring, comparing, or criticizing your body, pause and ask: Am I living in my body, or am I watching my body? Then take a breath and turn your attention toward the Good Shepherd. What would change if I trusted the Good Shepherd to care for me instead of believing I have to control myself?   Teaching Scriptures: John 10:10 — Life to the full Romans 12:1 — Offering our bodies to God 1 Corinthians 10 — Honoring God with our bodies 1 Corinthians 4:1–2 — Stewarding the mysteries of God 1 Peter 4:10 — Stewarding God's gifts Matthew 25:14–30 — The parable of the talents 1 Corinthians 6:19–20 — Our bodies as temples of the Holy Spirit Mark 6:34 — Jesus' compassion for people like sheep without a shepherd 1 Peter 2:24–25 — Jesus as Shepherd and Overseer of our souls Psalm 23 — The Lord as our Shepherd   Mentioned in this Teaching Download the Body Dissatisfaction Scale: https://www.revelationwellness.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/body-dissatisfaction-scale.jpg Why Do I Hate My Body Webinar.

What if the person you call the love of your life entered carrying the key to the place where you still believe you are incomplete? Human beings begin life dependent. That dependence is innocent. A child requires regulation, protection, recognition, touch, presence, and care. When those needs remain unfinished, adulthood can inherit more than pain. It can inherit an assignment. Find somebody who will finally make the old absence stop hurting. Then attraction can feel like destiny because conditioning recognizes a familiar role before consciousness recognizes the script. The divine mirrored intimate play places another free, changing human being close enough to activate what solitude can keep hidden. Their distance can uncover abandonment. Independence can expose control. A boundary can reveal entitlement. Desire can expose the hunger to be chosen. Change can uncover the fear beneath your demand for permanence. The mirror shows something devastating. You have been asking an impermanent person to provide permanent evidence that you are truly whole. Bodies age, feelings move, circumstances turn, identities evolve, and relationships change form. Impermanence keeps its promise. The false self fights that fact because psychological need requires continuity of supply. Here need becomes the original sin when innocent childhood dependence survives as the adult belief that completion exists somewhere outside the self. Perhaps the fine tuning serves one ruthless purpose. Whatever you keep demanding from another person returns as a question about what remains uncultivated, disowned, or unclaimed within you. Can you become internally what you keep hiring romantic love to provide externally? Psychological freedom begins when another person can matter enormously without carrying responsibility for your wholeness. Then love loses its job as rescue. The mirror has done its work for you. You finally meet the person across from you after you stop trying to find yourself inside them.

“We are in the middle of a labyrinth which suggests to us many fake corridors. What's the superpower of literature? Literature is like an antidote against propaganda. Propaganda explains the world easily in a two-dimensional way.  Literature gives you a more complex explanation. Literature tells personal stories.”Today, we have a conversation about time, memory, and the bittersweet geography of human sorrow. Georgi Gospodinovis widely considered one of the most daring voices in contemporary European literature. His acclaimed novel, The Physics of Sorrow, won the prestigious Jan Michalski Prize in 2016, blending ancient myth and quantum physics to chronicle the delicate realities of post-socialist Eastern Europe. Joining him is Angela Rodel, a brilliant linguist, musician, and translator whose profound artistic empathy carries the flowing cadences of the Bulgarian language into vivid English. Together, this extraordinary creative duo made history by winning the 2023 International Booker Prizefor Time Shelter—the first book written in Bulgarian to ever receive the honor.Time Shelter is a masterfully dark, funny, and prescient novel. It begins with an enigmatic psychiatrist opening a clinic that treats Alzheimer's patients by meticulously recreating past decades to match their internal clocks. But the experiment quickly escapes the clinic walls, triggering a pan-European crisis where entire nations hold democratic referendums to choose which era of the past they will retreat into. It is a book that holds up a mirror to our own world, exploring what happens when a civilization faces a deficit of meaning and tries to weaponize nostalgia.(0:00) The Trap of Nostalgia(2:13) The Art of Translation(5:44) The Pandemic of the Past(11:30) Reading from ‘Time Shelter'(14:28) Death and the Gardener(19:34) The Translator's Calling(26:05) Cultural Rhythms of the Bulgarian Language(30:00) The Nonlinear Approach to Storytelling(34:30) Separating Personal and Historical Pasts(42:55) Storytelling vs Propaganda(47:19) Bodies, Animals and the Loneliness of the Minotaur(56:00) Reading ' Eight Minutes and 19 Seconds'(1:00:28) What makes a good life?

This week, we explore the world of real body exhibits. Real body exhibits use a process called Plastination to make an enternal corpse and then either set up a stand alone spot or tour the world with these bodies. You may know it as "Body Worlds", "BodiesL The Exhibition" or a million other names. But where are these bodies coming from? Are people dying to be put on display?Merch:https://weird-wednesday-shop.fourthwall.com/Join the Patreon:www.Patreon.com/Wednesdaystalk  Join the Facebook Group:https://www.facebook.com/share/g/17r9NPkasi/ Email Us:SubmitWeird@gmail.com  Follow Ashley Hilt:Linktr.ee/itsasherz  Follow Cassie Marozsan:Linktr.ee/Cassiesland  Produced By: Real Life Corpse NateBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/on-wednesdays-we-talk-weird--5989318/support.

Portland Mayor Keith Wilson is preparing to declare a public emergency after a massive fire — almost certainly set by a homeless encampment — gutted the eight-story Centennial Mills building along the Willamette River. The structure is now so compromised that passing Amtrak trains could trigger a full collapse, forcing the suspension of Seattle-to-Portland rail service indefinitely.Sean breaks down exactly what the media won't say out loud: this is a direct consequence of Portland's homeless industrial complex. The building didn't just age into catastrophe — it was burned out. Bodies are believed to be in the rubble. Trains can't run. And the city's response is to declare an emergency as if this were an act of God rather than a predictable outcome of years of failed policy.The Centennial Mills story is a microcosm of what progressive governance produces: infrastructure paralyzed, public safety compromised, and a press corps too cautious to name the cause. Sean names it.Subscribe to @reasonablenews and hit the notification bell — there will be updates on this one as the building situation develops.#NFRP #Portland #KeithWilsonGO PREMIUM WITH REASONABLE+ FOR UNCENSORED ACCESS

What if the truth about UFOs, extraterrestrial life, and government secrecy is far stranger than the public has been told? Constitutional attorney Daniel Sheehan shares his perspective on recovered UFOs live ET beings, telepathic technology, CIA psychological operations, and the long-running effort to suppress disclosure. Drawing on decades of legal experience, he also explores consciousness, remote viewing, ancient civilizations, and human evolution, while explaining why he believes major revelations about extraterrestrial contact could emerge between 2027 and 2030.

Louisiana's built on water. Swamps, bayous, a river running straight through the middle of it, and ground so soft you can't even bury people in it you gotta stack 'em above. Which maybe explains a lot. Because down there, nothing stays down. Bodies, evidence, whole cases sooner or later it all floats back up. Problem is, by the time it does, whoever put it there is long gone.

What does it mean to let something end?In this episode, I'm taking you into the late summer garden to explore the simple practice of deadheading and what it can teach us about letting go. As I remove spent blooms from my petunias, I reflect on the ways we continue to hold onto things that have already completed their cycle and how much energy that can quietly require.

What if suffering doesn't begin with what happens to you?What if it begins the moment the mind says, “This shouldn't be happening”?In this episode of The Alpha Male Coach Podcast, Kevin invites you into a direct investigation of one of the most persistent mechanisms of the human mind: resistance.Life includes pain. Relationships change. Bodies age. Businesses fail. People leave. Money comes and goes. Plans fall apart. People we love die. None of this is being denied, minimized, or spiritually bypassed.But pain and suffering are not necessarily the same thing.There is what happens - and then there is what the mind says about what happens.Reality says, “This happened.”The mind says, “This should not have happened.”And in the distance between those two statements, suffering begins.Throughout this episode, Kevin examines the subtle ways we argue with reality through words like should, shouldn't, must, and fair. We create an imaginary version of life, compare it with what is actually happening, and then demand that reality conform to the image in our minds.But reality never signed that contract.This investigation moves beyond the simplistic idea that acceptance means becoming passive, indifferent, or unwilling to act. Acceptance does not mean staying in a burning building. It does not mean tolerating abuse, ignoring financial problems, abandoning boundaries, or pretending painful experiences do not hurt.Acceptance means seeing what is actually here clearly enough to respond without first requiring reality to be different.And then the investigation goes deeper.If resistance is happening, who exactly is resisting?When a thought appears - “I don't want this,” “This shouldn't be happening,” “I need to fix this” - did you choose that thought? Did you construct it deliberately? Or did it simply appear?What about the emotion that followed it?What about the physical contraction in the body?As Kevin follows resistance back toward its source, the episode moves from the mechanics of suffering into a deeper inquiry about identity itself. The mind does not merely resist circumstances. It resists anything that threatens the story of the person it believes itself to be.The successful man.The good man.The strong man.The husband.The father.The teacher.The seeker.The person who believes he is controlling his life.But when you actually search for the one supposedly standing behind all of these identities, what do you find?This episode is not an invitation to adopt another philosophy or replace one belief with a more spiritual belief. It is an invitation to look.To investigate.To discover what remains before the commentary, before the judgment, before the story, and before the demand that this moment become something other than what it already is.Because perhaps peace is not something waiting for you after life finally cooperates.Perhaps peace is what remains when the argument with life ends.And perhaps the most important question is also the simplest:Without referring to thought, what is wrong with this moment?

A 30-year-old soldier can have the knees of a 60-year-old. Not from one bad injury, but from carrying a load every single day for years. Family medicine and sports medicine physician Ann Lebeck returns to explain why she came to see soldiers as tactical athletes, and what that means for their bodies. This episode is based on her article "Military sports medicine and the cost of readiness," published on KevinMD. You will hear why young recruits who never played sports kept saying the Army broke them, how early joint damage shows up predictably with years of service, and why a soldier is a year-round athlete for two decades, not a four-year career. Ann shares the program she built that taught running mechanics, strengthening, and even the right shoes, and the results after 1,200 soldiers came through. You will come away seeing soldiers, and every physically demanding job, through the eyes of the doctor who learned to treat the body that carries the load. Partner with me on the KevinMD platform.
