Send us Fan MailWe spend billions of dollars developing drugs to fight cancer - but what if one of the most powerful therapies begins before treatment even starts? Today we're exploring the rapidly growing field of cancer rehabilitation and the science showing that exercise, nutrition, and personalized recovery plans can dramatically improve life before, during, and after cancer.Today's first guest is Dr. Jessica Cheng, MD ( https://www.cityofhope.org/patients/find-a-doctor/jessica-cheng ) one of the country's very few fellowship-trained physicians specializing in cancer rehabilitation medicine, and currently the only fellowship-trained cancer rehabilitation specialist serving Orange County at City of Hope.Dr. Cheng is a board-certified physiatrist whose work focuses on helping cancer patients maximize their strength, mobility, independence and quality of life before, during and after treatment. Her approach combines exercise medicine, physical rehabilitation, pain management, neurological recovery and supportive care into individualized treatment plans designed to remove barriers to successful cancer therapy.After earning her medical degree from Boston University, Dr. Cheng completed residency training at Loma Linda University Health before pursuing one of the nation's premier fellowships in cancer rehabilitation at MD Anderson Cancer Center. Today she is helping shape the future of this emerging field through clinical care, research and physician education.Our second guest is cancer survivor Sharyn Araki.Sharyn's journey encompasses every stage of breast cancer - from discovering a lump and receiving a life-changing diagnosis, through chemotherapy, surgery, radiation therapy and rehabilitation. Throughout that experience she discovered that recovery wasn't simply about surviving cancer - it was about reclaiming her life.Working alongside Dr. Cheng, Sharyn embraced structured exercise and rehabilitation - including an unexpected passion for pickleball - which helped combat debilitating fatigue, rebuild strength and restore confidence. ( https://www.cityofhope.org/orange-county/talking-hope/physical-medicine-and-rehabilitation )Perhaps most remarkably, Sharyn navigated this entire journey while raising seven children, offering a powerful perspective on resilience, family, faith and what it truly means to recover after cancer treatment.#CancerRehabilitation #CancerSurvivor #BreastCancer #CancerRecovery #ExerciseIsMedicine #Prehabilitation #CancerCare #Oncology #IntegrativeOncology #CancerResearch #Fitness #HealthInnovation #QualityOfLife #Stem #MedicalScience #PhysicalTherapy #Wellness #CancerFatigue #CityOfHope #ProgressPotentialPossibilitiesSupport the show

In this episode, Emily interviews Richard Coca, a 3rd-year PhD student at Boston University. Richard breaks down his budget, detailing his top five largest expenses: rent, groceries, eating out, hobbies, and social spending. He rents a bedroom and private bathroom in a shared home convenient to public transit in East Cambridge, and the higher rent is offset because he does not own a car. Richard has developed two intensive hobbies since starting grad school: running and stand-up comedy. To participate in those hobbies, he spends on race entry fees, shoes, and drinks and meals at venues. Richard used to overwork and be much more frugal; he now spends more on his hobbies, eating out, and friends, but he's still reaching his goal of maxing out his Roth IRA every year. He feels mentally and physically healthy and is happy with his work-life balance.

From failed minister to car salesman to Oregon Secretary of State, Shemia Fagan has taken one of the more unconventional roads to plaintiff employment law. Now managing partner of six HKM Employment Attorneys offices and running over 200 active cases as the sole attorney on her team, Shemia joins guest host Stephen King and her partner Matthew Westerbeck to show how she does it: with Claude. Together they walk through a practical framework for trial lawyers — using the acronym TRIAL — covering AI-driven triage, research, intake review, advocacy prep, and continuous learning. Tune in for concrete strategies on email automation, judge simulation, deposition prep, and how AI frees lawyers to focus on the human skills no machine can replace.Train and Connect with the Titans☑️ Shemia Fagan | LinkedIn☑️ HKM Employment Attorneys LLP | LinkedIn☑️ Matthew Westerbeck | LinkedIn☑️ Stephen King | LinkedIn☑️ Kings Justice Law☑️ Trial Lawyers University☑️ TLU On Demand Instant access to live lectures, case analysis, and skills training videos☑️ TLU Beach 2027☑️ TLU on X | Facebook | Instagram | LinkedIn☑️ Subscribe Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTubeEpisode SnapshotShemia dropped out of a bachelor of divinity program at Boston University, sold cars for a couple of years to save for law school, then graduated from law school in Oregon in 2009 — building persuasion skills at every stage.While working at a corporate defense firm, Shemia simultaneously served in the Oregon legislature, passing paid sick leave and wage transparency laws — and quickly realized she would never make partner at a firm whose corporate clients were her political adversaries.Representing her mother in an age discrimination case, produced a settlement that let her mom buy her first home ever; that moment of purpose drew Shemia fully to the plaintiff side.After discovering Claude Cowork, Shemia spent the entire following weekend building email triage and expense-report automation — a "camel's nose under the tent" that transformed how she runs her practice.The episode introduces the TRIAL acronym — Triage, Research, Intake, Advocacy, Learning — as a practical roadmap for how plaintiff lawyers can deploy AI across every phase of their practice without sacrificing professional responsibility.Shemia used Claude to download all prior deposition transcripts of an opposing attorney 30 years her senior, extract their patterns and rule citations, and build a cheat sheet.Stephen King describes sleeping only an hour and a half per night during trial because AI had already anticipated every contingency — letting him stay fully present for the jury instead of managing logistics in his head.Produced and Powered by LawPods

"Real Life Evolution" With close to ten brilliant albums under her belt, including Real Life, To Survive and The Classic, it's hard to think of a more critically-acclaimed artist in recent memory than singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Joan As Police Woman. After studying music as a violinist at the College of Fine Arts at Boston University with her lifelong friend Mary Timony of Helium, the Maine-born Joan Wasser Wasser played in punk bands, joined the Dambuilders, formed Black Beetle and played with Those Bastard Souls and Antony and the Johnsons. I'm cutting corners here, but over the course of her winning career, Wasser has become one of the most in-demand musicians on the planet. She's played, recorded and toured with the likes of Iggy Pop, Damon Albarn, Rufus Wainwright, Elton John, Tony Allen, Lou Reed, Sheryl Crow, Lloyd Cole, Joseph Arthur, Scissor Sisters, Tanya Donelly, David Sylvan and John Cale, just to name a few. Joan As Policewoman's new album finds Wasser revisiting her Real Life album on the occasion of its twentieth anniversary. Reimagined with soul, grace and musical precision, Real Life Evolution not only demonstrates the elasticity of the original compositions, it also demonstrates how art can be reimagined and reinterpreted by the artist themselves. Featuring guest like Iggy Pop and Krystle Warren, Real Life Evolution simmers with reggae grooves, jazzy shuffles, and spare, indie rock ache and it's not only the perfect companion to the original, it stands proudly by itself. www.joanaspolicewoman.com (http://www.joanaspolicewoman.com) www.bombshellradio.com (http://www.bombshellradio.com) www.stereoembersmagazine.com (http://www.stereoembersmagazine.com) www.alexgreenbooks.com (http://www.alexgreenbooks.com) Stereo Embers: IG + BLUESKY + THREADS: @emberspodcast Email: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com

“America has a rigged economy held in place by a corrupt system of campaign finance.” — the message Tad Devine and Ben Tulchin developed for Bernie Sanders, which tested highest in Iowa and New Hampshire in 2015 How the Democrats Screwed Bernie. It could have been coined by Donald Trump. That was Tad Devine's first objection when his editor floated it. But as Devine, Bernie Sanders' chief strategist on his 2016 Presidential campaign, worked on the book about the 2016 campaign, he realised it most accurately expressed how he felt about what actually happened. And so the new tell-all — the inside account of the historic Sanders campaign — is, indeed, entitled How the Democrats Screwed Bernie. Devine was never an outsider. He worked on Al Gore's 2000 and John Kerry's 2004 presidential campaigns. He first met Bernie Sanders in 1996, when Peter DeFazio — the Oregon congressman for whom Devine and his partner Mike Donilon had just run a near-miraculous campaign — suggested they meet. Sanders had almost lost his House seat in 1994. Devine's campaign won it back by 26 points. Ten years later, Devine ran Sanders' successful Senate campaign against a free-spending billionaire. They won by 30 points. Devine schooled Bernie in the insider-politics of the Democratic party. But he didn't transform him into an insider. Bernie was and is always Bernie. The consummate outsider. So how, exactly, did the Dems screw Bernie? According to Devine, it was a coordinated campaign by the Clinton Machine, the DNC, and a network of Super PACs to stop a wildly popular outsider through dark money, dirty tricks, and deliberately structured primary rules. The unHillary candidate who, Devine argues, may well have been the people's choice — and could have beaten Donald Trump in November 2016. But Bernie's real legacy, Devine insists, is not what was done to him. It's his campaign message. “America has a rigged economy held in place by a corrupt system of campaign finance.” That outsider language — which Devine developed with pollster Ben Tulchin — captures how America is screwing itself. The consummate insider Trump stole Bernie's language. And if the Democrats want to screw the MAGA crowd in 2028, they need to seize back this outsider message. Five Takeaways •       The Title That Sounded Like Trump: Devine's first reaction when his Simon & Schuster editor proposed the title: I don't want to be anything like Trump. But as he worked through the process of writing the book, he came to see that the title most accurately expressed how he felt about what happened in 2016. The Democratic establishment — the Clinton Machine, the DNC, the network of Super PACs and media allies — used dark money, dirty tricks, opposition research, and deliberately structured primary rules to stop a wildly popular outsider candidate. A candidate who, the book argues, may well have been the people's choice and may well have defeated Donald Trump. •       How Devine Met Bernie: 1996, Peter DeFazio, and 26 Points: Devine was already a Democratic establishment figure when Peter DeFazio — a progressive Oregon congressman — introduced him to Sanders in early 1996. Sanders had almost lost his House seat in 1994; Devine's firm came in a month before the 1996 election and reversed the trajectory. Sanders won by 26 points. Ten years later, Devine ran Sanders' Senate campaign against a billionaire who spent the equivalent of $350 million in California, and they won by 30 points. A bond of trust formed between the establishment consultant and the independent socialist, though it was a relationship in which the label-defying aspect went both ways: Bernie, you're a United States senator, Devine told him. That is the establishment. •       The Rigged Economy Message: What Bernie Actually Contributed: The most important moment in the 2016 campaign was not a debate or a rally. It was a polling session in 2015 in which Devine and pollster Ben Tulchin combined two separate arguments — a rigged economy and a corrupt system of campaign finance — into a single sentence: “America has a rigged economy held in place by a corrupt system of campaign finance.” It tested as the highest message in Iowa and New Hampshire. That, Devine argues, is Bernie's real legacy: the identification of the structural problem. Until that problem is fixed — until the campaign finance system that rigs the economy is reformed — the economy will continue to crush the middle class and make it impossible for people to afford groceries, gas, and healthcare. •       The Real Populist vs the Phony One: Trump saw the same diagnosis Bernie had identified and grabbed it — infusing it with his xenophobia, racism, pathological lying, and contempt for democratic norms. The populist message was the same; the bundle around it was entirely different. Bernie represents a belief that government has a role in serving people. Trump represents a belief that government should serve rich people and punish everyone else, wrapped in the language of the working class. That, Devine argues, is the distinction that matters for 2028. The fight is not between left and right. It is between the real and the phony. •       AOC, Ro Khanna, and the 2028 Democratic Race: Bernie won't run in 2028. But Devine is certain that one or more Bernie-style candidates will. AOC and Ro Khanna are the most obvious — both have toured with Bernie, both share his core principles, both are committed to Medicare for All. But Devine adds: at this point in the calendar going into 2006, Barack Obama was a state senator from Illinois. The candidate who actually wins the 2028 nomination may not yet be on the radar. What is on the radar: a Democratic base that is desperate for new leadership and a new direction. And a president, Trump, who Devine believes is capable of doing anything to hold power, including worse than January 6. The only way to stop him is to beat him in elections. About the Guest Tad Devine is a Democratic political strategist with over thirty years of campaign experience.

In "Private Fleets Rescue Freight Brokers in 2026", Joe Lynch and Russell Jones, CEO & Co-founder of Private Fleet Net Zero, discuss how unlocking empty private backhauls provides brokers with discounted, high-quality capacity to combat fraud and skyrocketing liability. About Russ Jones Russell Jones co-founded Private Fleet Net Zero to help the 45% of trucks that are in Private Fleets with usually empty backhauls find loads from $50B+ of 3PL freight spend, leveraging his leadership of Cargo Chief, which enables 1,200+ 3PL buyers with $8B+ of spend to buy transportation capacity more profitably. Previously, Mr. Jones co-founded and led two cloud-based physical security firms.  He was also the founding CEO of Clearvox Communications, which pioneered the market for cellular phone headsets, which he sold to Plantronics.  Beforehand at Adaptec, Mr. Jones doubled a $50M channel products business to $100M. Mr. Jones has been awarded 10 patents, and holds a BSBA with highest honors from Boston University and an MBA from the Harvard Business School. About Private Fleet Net Zero Private Fleet Net Zero, PFNZ, is uniquely aggregating 10,000s of trucks with 1,000s of lanes of underutilized, underpriced, theft-free and superior private and dedicated fleet trucking capacity and matching via multi patent-pending technologies and artificial intelligence to $10Bs of freight spend registered on our cloud-based platform, while generating a compelling client ROI. Our network is quickly and efficiently growing both fleets and 3PLs on PFNZ, which is on a path to save 30M+ tree equivalents. Key Takeaways: Private Fleets Rescue Freight Brokers in 2026 In "Private Fleets Rescue Freight Brokers in 2026", Joe Lynch and Russell Jones, CEO & Co-founder of Private Fleet Net Zero, discuss how unlocking empty private backhauls provides brokers with discounted, high-quality capacity to combat fraud and skyrocketing liability. Massive Fleet Scale: Private Fleet Net Zero (PFNZ) has rapidly aggregated 80,000 trucks and 40,000 lanes of coverage, using patent-pending AI to match this massive pool of underutilized capacity with tens of billions of dollars in registered freight spend. The $150B Backhaul Waste: Private fleets (where the cargo owner owns the asset, like Walmart or Sherwin-Williams) make up 45% of all trucks on the highway, yet they run empty 80% of the time on their backhauls, leaving a $150 billion pool of premium capacity sitting idle. Pure Profit for Fleets: Because the primary "front haul" already covers the driver's salary, equipment, insurance, and core fuel costs, any backhaul revenue captured through PFNZ represents a 95% pure profit margin for the fleet owner. Quadrupled Broker Margins: Brokers can secure this premium capacity at a 25% discount to the market rate. In a tight market where a typical gross profit might only be $150 on an $1,150 load, cutting carrier costs from $1,000 to $750 can effectively triple or quadruple a broker's net margins. Eliminating Fraud and Liability: Shifting to private fleets bypasses the modern plague of cargo theft, cyber fraud, and "chameleon carriers" who hide bad histories under new DOT numbers. Furthermore, because private fleets have newer equipment and a third less accidents, they shield brokers from catastrophic multi-million dollar "nuclear verdicts" tied to carrier safety under the recent Montgomery ruling. Combating the 2026 Capacity Crunch: Massive federal enforcement of English language proficiency rules is projected to strip 25% of for-hire drivers (400,000 to 600,000 drivers) off the road. PFNZ rescues brokers by giving them an automated "outsourced recruiting team" to tap into stable private capacity that was previously heavily monopolized by the top 10 mega-brokerages. Seamless Integration & Sustainability: PFNZ connects to a broker's TMS within weeks via APIs, reports, or an AI bot to automatically map buying patterns. By eliminating empty miles, the platform is on track to save over 45 million tree equivalents in CO2, giving public companies and shippers a verifiable decarbonization story for SEC and board reporting.

Dr. Martha Muñoz is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Yale University. Martha is an evolutionary biologist who is working to better understand how and why evolution proceeds unevenly across the tree of life. Some features and branches of organisms evolve really quickly, while others remain inert or nearly inert for millions of years. Martha's research is uncovering the mechanisms underlying this phenomenon, and she has discovered that behavior is a key architect of evolution. For Martha, nature is a wonderful source of peace and inspiration for her research. When she's not working, she enjoys exploring the outdoors, hiking, seeing amazing views, and observing wildlife. She also spends her free time reading, going to museums, and visiting her family in New York City. She received her B.A. in biology from Boston University. Afterwards, Martha worked as a Fulbright Research Scholar at the National Museum of Natural Sciences in Madrid, Spain. She was awarded her Ph.D. in Organismic & Evolutionary Biology from Harvard University. Next, Martha conducted postdoctoral research in the Research School of Biology at The Australian National University and subsequently the Department of Biology at Duke University. Prior to accepting her current position at Yale University, Martha served on the faculty in the Department of Biological Sciences at Virginia Tech. Martha has received numerous awards and honors, including the Boston University Department of Biology's Distinguished Alumni 'Rising Star' Award, and a Young Investigator Award from the American Society of Naturalists. She was also named a 'Scientist to Watch' by The Scientist Magazine in 2019. In our interview, Martha shares more about her life and science.

The Supreme Court just wrapped the term with a blitz of extremely consequential decisions, and the smoke hasn't cleared yet. (In fact, it's looming like a dark storm cloud over our Fourth of July and America 250th festivities…) In this week's episode, cohosts Dahlia Lithwick and Mark Joseph Stern focus on two of the term's bleakest legacies: first, the court's catastrophically bad use of history and second, the demise of independent agencies. They discuss the court's 6–3 decision in Trump v. Slaughter, which was rooted in shoddy originalism and reckless disregard for how an accountable democratic government actually functions. Meanwhile, the dissenters in Trump v. Barbara would have weaponized bogus history to end birthright citizenship for millions. To unpack this, Dahlia and Mark sit down with two law professors: Sam Bagenstos of the University of Michigan and a former general counsel at the Department of Health and Human Services, and Jed Shugerman of Boston University (whom Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson cited this week). They deconstruct the myriad ways in which the high court ultimately embarrassed itself, history, and truth, with decisions that will affect millions of Americans for years to come.Slate Plus members!

In this Conflicted Conversation, Thomas sweats his way through a personally revealing exchange with Quinn Slobodian, Professor of International History at Boston University and the author of Hayek's Bastards: The Neoliberal Roots of the Populist Right. Quinn explains: Friedrich Hayek's “knowledge problem” and his defence of markets over central planning. Hayek's later theory of cultural evolution, inherited institutions, and the limits of universal market society. The split between “cultural Austrians” at George Mason University and “racial Austrians” around the Mises Institute. Murray Rothbard's move from courting anti-war hippies to building alliances with paleoconservatives and racial nationalists. Hans-Hermann Hoppe, anarcho-capitalism, secession, and racially homogeneous private communities. The Bell Curve, Charles Murray, IQ research, and the politics of scientific claims about race and inequality. The difference between ideas that are empirically false and ideas rejected because they are morally disturbing. The post-Cold War transformation of neoliberal enemies from communism to environmentalism, affirmative action, feminism, and welfare. The divide between neoconservatives and paleoconservatives over US foreign policy, nationalism, and the Iraq War. Whether Hayek's Bastards reveals a major genealogy of the modern Far Right—or exaggerates the influence of a provocative fringe.

This week on About Art, Heidi Zuckerman speaks with artist Jennifer Guidi.This episode was recorded live before an audience at the Orange County Museum of Art in conjunction with And so it is., Guidi's solo exhibition curated by Heidi Zuckerman.Born in Redondo Beach, California, Guidi received a BFA from Boston University and an MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Her work is held in major public and private collections worldwide, including the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Hammer Museum, the Museum of Contemporary Art Los Angeles, and the Louis Vuitton Foundation in Paris.Known for her luminous paintings that draw inspiration from nature, meditation, ritual, and the California landscape, Guidi has developed a distinctive visual language rooted in repetition, mark-making, color, and the exploration of consciousness.In this conversation, Heidi and Jennifer discuss artistic practice, meditation, motherhood, ritual, silence, creativity, nature, and the relationship between awareness and intention. They also explore the role of repetition in art, the influence of landscape on memory and perception, collecting, community, and the lifelong process of discovering one's own visual language.Together they reflect on inspiration, failure, trust, surrender, and the ways creativity can help us connect more deeply with ourselves, each other, and the world around us.A thoughtful conversation about art, awareness, and what it means to devote a life to making.

On this week's episode of the podcast, I am joined by Garrett Johnson and Shunto Kobayashi, professors at Boston University who have co-authored a paper titled "Can privacy technologies replace cookies? Ad revenue in a field experiment." The paper quantifies the impact of Google's Privacy Sandbox on publisher revenue, user experience, and market competition through a field experiment conducted in collaboration with Raptive, a digital advertising management platform.Our conversation highlights the specific challenges faced by the digital advertising ecosystem as it moves away from traditional identifiers and toward a new, more restrictive privacy regime. Among other things, we discuss:How the loss of third-party cookies specifically affects regional markets with stricter privacy regulations like the European UnionIf the adoption of privacy-enhancing technologies like the Privacy Sandbox could truly bridge the revenue gap created by the deprecation of cookiesWhat role browser vendors should play in establishing technical guarantees that satisfy both regulators and advertising stakeholdersWhy the industry tends to respond to identity restrictions by developing more complex identifiers instead of contextual alternativesWhen the concentration of traffic toward larger platforms will reach a tipping point for small-scale content creatorsHow the removal of personalization features on platforms like YouTube serves as a blueprint for future privacy-driven market shiftsWe also cover another paper by Garrett Johnson, "COPPAcalypse?

A new youth protest movement in India that started as online satire is now staging an ongoing sit-in in New Delhi calling for the resignation of India's education minister.The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) was launched in late May by Abhijeet Dipke, a graduate of Boston University, in response to alleged comments by India's chief justice, Surya Kant, comparing unemployed young Indians to cockroaches. Dipke launched a parody political party, calling on all cockroaches to unite, which led to street protests in cities including Delhi, Pune, Jaipur and Bengaluru.The CJP latched onto mounting anger in India at a series of issues affecting exams, including the secondary school leaving exam, which has affected thousands of people and been linked to suicides. But the movement has also tapped into the anger of a generation of graduates who've done everything right but still can't find work that matches their aspirations.In this episode economist Rosa Abraham at Azim Premji University, explains how India's jobs crisis is fuelling this new youth protest movement.

Networking gets a bad reputation. And honestly? It's earned it.For most people, the word conjures images of awkward small talk, business cards nobody keeps, and conversations that feel more like auditions than actual human connection. It feels transactional. It feels fake. And for a lot of women, especially, it feels like a game they were never taught how to play.But what if the problem isn't networking itself — it's the way we've been taught to think about it?On the 2B Bolder Podcast, host Mary Killelea sits down with Monique Kelley — professor, consultant, and author of Redefining Networking: How to Lead with Your Unique Value, an Amazon #1 Bestseller in Business Ethics — to completely reframe what networking is, what it isn't, and why getting it right might be the single most important career move you make.Monique is a two-time PRNEWS Top Women in PR award recipient, a founding member of CHIEF, and has been featured in FOX and Fast Company. She's built a career working with some of the biggest names in biopharma — Pfizer, Roche, Lilly, Johnson & Johnson — not by chasing opportunities, but by building meaningful relationships that opened doors long after the conversation ended. Today she teaches the only Career Readiness course at Boston University's College of Communication, shaping how the next generation of professionals show up, connect, and lead.This conversation covers it all — her career journey from a pre-med detour into communications and healthcare PR, the moment she stepped in to present to a major client when her boss was out and realized that relationships matter just as much as the deck, and the pivots that took her from agency life to in-house roles to fractional consulting and eventually the classroom.Mary and Monique dig into the real stuff:What most people fundamentally get wrong about networking — and why that misunderstanding is costing them real opportunitiesWhat "leading with your value" actually means in practice, not just as a concept but as a daily behaviorA clear, three-step framework for defining your unique value, choosing the right audience, and showing up consistently — on LinkedIn and beyondWhy your network isn't a list of contacts. It's a living system of people who understand what you bring and actively want to advocate for youHow to build a network from scratch when you feel like you have nothing to offer and nowhere to startWhy remote work and meeting overload are making organic connection harder than ever — and what to do about itThe truth about "I don't have time to network" (spoiler: it's a prioritization issue, not a time issue)What Monique is seeing right now across executives, students, and mid-career professionals — and the specific behaviors she notices in women who are actually building momentumWhat she teaches her Career Readiness students at BU that experienced professionals desperately need to hearAnd the one thing she wishes she had understood earlier about building a career that lastsWhether you're in the middle of a career transition, feeling stuck in a role that no longer fits, or just dreading the next industry event — this episode will completely shift how you think about connection, value, and what it actually means to build a career on your own terms.

Steve Lowry and Yvonne Godfrey interview trial lawyers Bill Horton and D'Arcy L.R. Rapp about their Dallas trial of Davis v. NCAA, arising from SMU lineman JT Davis's repeated head impacts from 1955–1959, his later dementia, and a postmortem Boston University diagnosis of stage four CTE after his 2016 death.   CASE SUMMARY: They discuss securing a $140 million verdict ($30M compensatory, $110M punitive), the NCAA's historical knowledge of concussion risks through decades of medical literature and internal documents (including a 1933 medical handbook), and how the team simplified complex science and governance evidence using timelines, boards, and themes like control, competitive disadvantage, and “recommendations vs rules.” They address defenses including Alzheimer's, vascular factors, APOE4 genetic predisposition (framed as eggshell plaintiff), statute-of-limitations discovery issues, and trial strategy, cross-examinations, and damages presentation. (READ MORE)   GUEST BIOS BILL HORTON: Bill Horton has spent his career fighting for people who the system often overlooks—delivering results that stand among the largest in his field, including a $140 million verdict against the NCAA. Since earning his law degree in 2001, Bill has helped clients across Arkansas and the country secure justice against corporations, insurers, and powerful institutions. His work spans catastrophic injury, wrongful death, trucking litigation, class actions, and complex cases where the stakes are highest. Raised in Van Buren, Arkansas, Bill's path into law was shaped early. “Growing up poor, it became clear that the system wasn't fair for folks like me—and I wanted to change that,” he says. That perspective still drives his work today. (READ MORE)   D'Arcy L.R. Rapp: D'Arcy L.R. Rapp is an attorney at Shrader & Associates, LLP. She focuses her practice on mesothelioma, neurodegenerative disease, and toxic exposure. She has more than a decade of experience in fighting for people who have been injured by the negligence of corporations. She is an experienced trial lawyer with an extensive history in mesothelioma cases and has been involved at every stage of litigation, trying cases in more than eleven states. With well over fifty-million-dollars recovered on the behalf of her clients, she is dedicated to fighting for justice While a majority of D'Arcy's litigation experience is related to mesothelioma, she has handled cases across a variety of practice areas. Her expert opinion has been sought after by multiple publications.

Rei Vardi is the Founder and CEO of Eon. He started it as a side project in his dorm room at Boston University and built it into a national EV mobility platform with 3,000+ cars in over 30 cities. He bootstrapped everything and reached scale without raising outside capital. Eon connects underused electric vehicles to people and companies that need flexible access. Renters get a simple way to drive an EV. Owners earn passive income through their virtual fleet model. The platform has generated over $10 million dollars for owners and helped save over 16 million pounds of CO₂. Rei's background is in biomedical engineering and he has always been interested in building real world systems. Eon grew out of that. Most of his work now is focused on improving automation, expanding their network, and making the experience as simple as possible for both renters and owners. In episode 685 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we find out when Rei knew he had to walk away from the "safe path" in life, what was the craziest thing that happened in the early days of his business, how college students will know when to go "all in" on their business idea, how he was able to create momentum as an entrepreneur, how bootstrapping the business made it grow stronger, how students should apply systems to grow their organization, what side hustles are available for college students today, and whether all cars will be subscription based in 10 years instead of owned. Enjoy!

Send us Fan MailThe moment your child says something that changes the story you thought you were living, time can seem to split in two. There's the before — the assumptions, expectations, and dreams you carefully built — and then there's the after, where love, fear, confusion, grief, joy, protectiveness, and possibility all arrive at once. For many parents of trans kids, that moment can feel overwhelming, not because they love their child any less, but because they suddenly realize they're stepping into unfamiliar territory without a map. Today, we're joined by Rebecca Minor, therapist, educator, coach, and author of the new book Raising Trans Kids: What to Expect When You Weren't Expecting This. Sara and Rebecca talk about the emotional journey many parents experience when their child comes out as trans, the myths and misinformation families are navigating right now, and how parents can move from panic and uncertainty toward connection, confidence, and advocacy.Special Guest: Rebecca MinorRebecca Minor, LICSW (she/they), is an internationally recognized gender specialist, therapist, educator, and author of the book Raising Trans Kids: What to Expect When You Weren't Expecting This (Row House, Sept 2025).

Early-career coaches have to learn fast, adapt faster, and still earn trust. Sammi Ryan, Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach at Boston University, shares how seeking golden opportunities led her across the country and into unfamiliar sports. After an early training experience deterred her from the field, Ryan found her way in through graduate experience and a support system she still maintains today. When coaching sports she has not played, Ryan starts with research, trusted peers, and relationships with sport coaches. She stresses that coaches cannot “copy and paste” what worked at a previous stop because every team, athlete, and setting is different. For Ryan, athlete questions are a chance to clarify the plan or change course. She also discusses staff coverage and sport science integration at Boston University. Ryan reflects on helping college athletes grow and develop as humans, not just athletes. Listen to learn how to strengthen your support system, adapt across teams, and guide athletes beyond sport.

So, I think being able to lean on different support systems, mentors, other people that were in my cohort at my different grad programs to be able to reach out and lean on them and see how are you dealing with this, not just kind of the X's and O's, but maybe dealing with sport coaches or navigating how to train different teams, or working with sport science or just anything that kind of we deal with on the day to day... I think has been a huge one.” 7:10  “I feel like athletes nowadays, especially with the social media climb, they want to know the reason behind everything. So, I think being able to take a step back and [...] making sure I mean everything I program always has a why behind it. And I told my athletes, if they ask me why and I don't have a reason, I'm more than happy to take a step back and change it.” 14:45  “We get kids that are 17/18 years old and then we can take them and see them grow and develop into not just athletes, but grow and develop as humans as well. [...] I think a big part is being part of their life and helping them develop as humans, not just athletes. And to see that development throughout the years is definitely one of my favorite parts about this field.” 19:20

To juraprofessorer fra Boston University satte sig for at udforme en vejledning til brugen af kunstig intelligens til myndigheder og samfundsinstitutioner. Men undervejs som de dykkede ned i forskningen, tog projektet en drejning. I stedet for en guide endte de med at formulere en stor rød advarselstrekant. Politikens Jakob Sorgenfri Kjær har interviewet den ene af de to professorer om, hvordan vores brug af AI kortslutter forbindelsen mellem os som mennesker, nedbryder viden og skaber mistillid i samfundet. Professor Woodrow Hartzog mener, at AI er i færd med at nedbryde vores institutioner og dermed hele samfundet indefra.

HEALTH NEWS   Ginger Supplementation Reduces Muscle Soreness, Review Finds Artificially sweetened and sugar-sweetened beverage intake and risk of liver cancer Plant-based quinoa burgers reduce post-meal blood sugar spikes Sleep and exercise may curb heart risk from mutant white blood cells Pregnant women may reduce key health risk through less sitting, more light exercise     Ginger Supplementation Reduces Muscle Soreness, Review Finds Old Dominion University, June 4 2026 (Natural News)     A review published in Nutrition Reviews found that consuming 2 grams of ginger daily for 11 consecutive days before exercise reduced delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS) by 23% to 25%.   The review examined multiple placebo-controlled studies and found that single doses taken just before exercise did not produce significant pain reduction, but consistent daily intake over the 11-day period yielded measurable results.   DOMS typically occurs 24 to 72 hours after exercise and is a common reason individuals skip subsequent workouts. In two placebo-controlled studies reviewed, participants consumed 2 grams of either raw or heat-treated ginger daily for 11 days before performing eccentric exercise, which lengthens muscles under tension. The effective dose identified in the review was 2 grams per day, roughly equivalent to one teaspoon of fresh grated ginger.   Artificially sweetened and sugar-sweetened beverage intake and risk of liver cancer Yale University, National Cancer Institute, Boston University, June 10 2026 (Eurekalert) Are artificially sweetened beverage (ASB) and sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) intakes associated with risk of liver cancer overall and by subtype (hepatocellular carcinoma [HCC] and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma [ICC])? In this pooled analysis of 11 prospective cohort studies comprising 1,518,411 adults, SSB intake per 1-beverage/day increment was associated with increased risk of HCC and ICC, whereas ASB intake was not associated with liver cancer overall or by subtype. There was no evidence of effect modification by diabetes status.     Plant-based quinoa burgers reduce post-meal blood sugar spikes Federal University of Golas (Brazil), June 10 2026 (News-Medical) A study published in ACS Nutrition Science suggests that a plant-based burger made from baru pulp and red quinoa could reduce post-meal blood glucose responses in healthy adults. Red quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is a pseudocereal that is rich in protein, fiber, and micronutrients. It provide spolyphenols that have been shown to slow gastric emptying and overall digestion, and may reduce enzymatic degradation of carbohydrates in the gut. This would influence the rate at which glucose is absorbed into the bloodstream after a meal, altering the GI. The authors of this pilot study examined GI in a small sample of eight volunteers after consuming two plant-based burgers: one made with baru pulp and red quinoa, and the other with red quinoa alone.  All three foods produced their highest blood glucose levels 30 minutes after consumption. The glucose reference food generated the largest peak at 174 mg/dL, while the baru pulp–red quinoa and red quinoa burgers reached substantially lower peaks of 118 mg/dL and 120 mg/dL, respectively. By 120 minutes, blood glucose levels had declined in all groups. Compared with the glucose reference, both plant-based burgers caused only modest increases in blood glucose relative to fasting levels: 15.5% for the red quinoa burger and 18% for the baru pulp–red quinoa burger.   Sleep and exercise may curb heart risk from mutant white blood cells Mount Sinai Hospital, June 10. 2026 (Medical Xpress) Healthy sleep and regular exercise can work to counteract genetic mutations in white blood cells that are associated with cardiovascular disease and are most common among older people, Mount Sinai researchers have found. In a study published in Nature, the team reported for the first time that sufficient sleep and exercise can help reduce the cancer-like cell expansion and atherosclerotic risk linked to mutations that spontaneously occur in white blood cells. These mutations accumulate over our lifetimes and occur most often in hematopoietic stem cells, which are the cells in bone marrow that make blood cells, including macrophages and monocytes, immune cells that help defend the body. When these cells develop mutations, they start to proliferate, multiplying faster than they should, and become more inflammatory, irritating or damaging tissues in the body. This condition, known as clonal hematopoiesis (CH), is detectable in a quarter of people over age 70 and half of people over 80, though it is infrequent in young, healthy people. Healthy sleep and exercise was found to selectively influence immune cells with clonal hematopoiesis mutations, repressing their proliferative programming and expansion, as well as their ability to promote the formation of harmful plaque in the arteries of the heart. The findings reveal that CH mutant cells are malleable and selectively responsive to lifestyle behavior in a way that can mitigate atherosclerotic risk. Mount Sinai researchers discovered that moderate-to-vigorous physical activity was associated with a reduced incidence of gene-specific CH and fewer mutant cells in the blood. Sufficient sleep and exercise "turned off" the detrimental effects of rogue Jak2 and Tet2 mutant CH hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow, decreasing their ability to proliferate and grow, a precancerous process known as "clonal expansion.   Pregnant women may reduce key health risk through less sitting, more light exercise University of Iowa, June 10 2026 (Eurekalert)   Women who engage in light physical activity and lessen their sedentary time may significantly reduce the risk of key health problems during pregnancy, according to a new University of Iowa-led study. Researchers examined the daily behaviors of 470 pregnant women across all stages of pregnancy. Each participant wore a monitor that measured physical activity in 24-hour cycles and another monitor that recorded the time they spent asleep. Based on observational data collected from the study's participants, the researchers propose a “Goldilocks Day”-like guide for pregnant women that could reduce by nearly 30% the risk of developing hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP), commonly occurring complications of pregnancy that include chronic hypertension, gestational hypertension, and preeclampsia. Those recommendations are: • Reduce sedentary time to fewer than eight hours each day. • Engage in light physical activity for at least seven hours each day. • Engage in approximately 22 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity, such as a brisk walk, each day. • Get nearly nine hours of sleep each night.

Family stories are often built on cherished memories, treasured photographs, and carefully preserved traditions. But sometimes, buried beneath those stories are secrets, tragedies, and wounds that ripple across generations. In this episode, I'm joined by Phyllis Karas, New York Times bestselling author, professor of journalism at Boston University, and longtime journalist, to discuss her powerful book Curse of the Blumenthals. Part true crime investigation, part family memoir, and part exploration of generational trauma, the book traces the extraordinary saga of the Blumenthal family—from immigration and Prohibition-era bootlegging to devastating tragedy, murder, family estrangement, and ultimately the search for healing. This is a conversation about family secrets, memory, resilience, journalism, and how understanding the past can help us break cycles that span generations.

What if your healthcare team already knew what happened during your hospital stay — before you even explained it? What if someone on your care team noticed you were struggling on a Saturday and simply showed up? In this episode, Jamie sits down with Christopher Laffey, Nurse Practitioner at Your Health, to break down what a truly connected, proactive model of care actually looks like when it's working. Christopher practices in North Charleston, SC, where his team — nurses, therapists, social workers, community health workers, and more — functions less like a traditional office practice and more like a living, breathing safety net woven around each patient's real life. What you'll hear in this episode: Why most patients are failing not because nobody cares, but because the system itself is fragmented — and what doing it differently actually looks like on a Tuesday morning The real difference between "patient-centered" as a marketing phrase and patient-centered as a daily practice (hint: it involves seeing the medication bottles on the kitchen table) A powerful real-life story of a bedbound patient whose caregiver suddenly disappeared — and how the team mobilized over a weekend, on their own time, to prevent a hospitalization The single mindset shift every clinician needs to make the transition from visit-based thinking to longitudinal care Why "value-based care" doesn't mean discounted care — it means the organization is accountable for your outcomes, not just your appointments If you've ever left a doctor's appointment feeling more confused than when you walked in, this episode will show you what healthcare can feel like when it's actually designed around you. www.YourHealth.Org

When people think about stress management, it's often through the lens of “getting rid of stress.” But stress itself isn't the problem, and in many ways, it actually helps move us forward. The problem is staying stuck in stress all day long without giving your body moments to recover. Learning how to bring yourself back to center before overwhelm takes over is essential, and it starts with nervous system regulation practices you can easily do every day.My guest today is Dr. Kathleen Kelley, a professor of physical therapy, board-certified neurological clinical specialist, certified yoga and meditation teacher, and life coach. She draws on her extensive experience and education in her coaching practice, helping busy clinicians and high-achieving professionals use simple regulation tools to feel more grounded, calm, and in control of their nervous systems.In this episode, we discuss Dr. Kelley's many practical nervous system regulation techniques, why stress release matters more than avoiding stress altogether, and the connection between regulation, emotions, and creating intentional change in your life.This conversation is an invitation to notice how often you give yourself moments of pause, care, and reconnection throughout the day, and to consider how you may be able to give yourself more. The key to a more spacious life is practicing these small moments of regulation and self-connection one day at a time. Let's get started!What you'll learn:Simple nervous system regulation tools and techniques that can be used on the flyWhy nervous system regulation happens through small moments of reconnecting with yourself throughout the dayHow taking care of yourself helps you feel better while also modeling regulation for othersThe neuroscience behind why dysregulation cuts you off from clear thinkingHow manifesting works as a combination of attention, intention, and aligned action that primes the nervous systemYou can read the full show notes here.About Dr. Kathleen KelleyDr. Kelley is a professor of physical therapy at Quinnipiac University. She has taught neurologic rehabilitation, balance, falls, and vestibular dysfunction. Currently, she teaches both gross anatomy and neuroanatomy. Dr. Kelley received her BS in physical therapy from the University of Connecticut, her MS in neurology from Boston University, and her Doctorate in education from the University of Sarasota. She is also a board-certified neurological clinical specialist (emeritus), certified yoga and meditation teacher, and a certified Life Coach. Dr. Kelley's passion for neurology, brain health, wellness, and self-care led her to dive deeply into the neuroscience of stress, stress management, and best practices for brain health. Dr. Kelley applies modern neuroscience to develop practical tools for regulating the nervous system for both educators and clinicians.

He’s worked as the personal chef for French President Charles de Gaulle, co-hosted a television series with Julia Child and has authored over 30 cookbooks. There’s simply no one in the world like French chef – and culinary icon – Jacques Pépin. The Emmy- and James Beard Foundation Award winner worked in more than 100 restaurants before becoming the Director of Research and Development for Howard Johnson’s. He then transitioned to educating the public in proper French cooking methods through his groundbreaking cookbooks like “La Technique” and his latest, “Jacques Pépin Cooking My Way: Recipes and Techniques for Economical Cooking;” as well as through his numerous television series like “Today’s Gourmet” and “Every Day Cooking.” He is also the co-founder of the culinary certificate program at Boston University and founder of The Jacques Pépin Foundation, which teaches underserved populations a path to employment through cooking. Alec speaks with Chef Pépin about how his family’s work in restaurants influenced his path, why he’s made the pivots he has throughout his career, and what a revered chef likes to eat in his downtime.

On today's pledge drive edition of A Public Affair, host Dana Pellebon is in conversation with Rev. Staci Marrese-Wheeler and Rev. Tim Schaefer about the phenomena of white Christian nationalism and how their congregations are choosing to follow a table-flipping Jesus. Rev. Schaefer is part of a coalition of clergy in Wisconsin working against Christian nationalism. He says that this political ideology gets framed in theological terms by a small group of people who interpret scripture in a narrow way in order to uphold their power and control. Rooted in white supremacy, Christian nationalism threatens democratic norms and threatens churches because it doesn't allow for pluralism in either space, says Schaefer. Rev. Marrese-Wheeler says that this ideology is rooted in fear and a scarcity mindset, but she follows Christian teachings of abundance. She pastors a small, progressive congregation where people have been exposed to justice-framed understandings of the Gospel. “Patriarchy is baked into church DNA,” says Marrese-Wheeler, though there have been denominations that ordain female clergy. Schaefer says that he brings feminist, womanist, and queer theologies into his sermons, following the model of a social-justice, table-flipping Jesus.  “More and more, faithful people are being asked to create more power and more wealth for people who don't follow Jesus,” says Marrese-Wheeler. Instead, she looks to Christian traditions in Central America and Africa that preach community instead of individualism. Note: This pledge drive interview was edited to remove parts of the show dedicated to station fundraising. We thank our listeners for their generous support. Rev. Staci Marrese-Wheeler (She/Her) is Pastor at Common Grace. Staci is an ordained pastor of the Moravian Church of North America. Staci has an undergraduate degree in Education and a Masters of Divinity from Moravian Theological Seminary in Bethlehem, PA. She has served on the eastside of Madison for 17 of her 33 years in ministry. Staci’s role at Common Grace is  called “Community Development Pastor.” She also serves as Co-Director of the Eastmorland Community Center on the east side of Madison. Rev. Tim Schaefer has served as pastor of First Baptist Church since November 2020. Prior to relocating to Wisconsin, he served as Minister to Youth at Royal Lane Baptist Church in Dallas, TX, where he was ordained in early 2019. Tim holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science from Boston University and a Master of Divinity degree, as well as, a degree certificate in Gender and Sexual Justice from Brite Divinity School at Texas Christian University. In addition to his pastoral role, Tim co-founded and continues to co-lead the Wisconsin Coalition for Religious Freedom, a broad collective of Wisconsinites dedicated to disrupting the rise of white Christian nationalism in our state.

What if the book sitting on your nightstand right now could change the entire trajectory of your business, your confidence, and your life? Not in some theoretical way, but in a real, tangible, somebody-booked-a-one-way-ticket-to-Buenos-Aires kind of way. That's exactly what this episode is about. In this conversation, I got to sit down with my good friend Nick Hutchison, bestselling author of "Rise of the Reader," keynote speaker, and founder of Book Thinkers, a company that helps authors promote and market their books so they actually get read. Nick built Book Thinkers from scratch after discovering the power of personal development books during a summer internship. He went from being the guy with a 0% homework average in AP Calculus to building a full-time team that serves hundreds of authors a year. His mission is simple but powerful: more books in more hands, changing more lives. This episode matters because we're living in a world that's actively working against your focus. Doom scrolling, short-form content, algorithmic addiction, all of it is chipping away at our ability to think deeply and grow intentionally. Nick and I went deep on why books are more important now than ever, and what you can actually do about it. One of the biggest things we talked about is the IQ drop happening in Gen Z, and it's not because they're less capable. It's because attention spans are shrinking. Nick shared a study showing that Gen Z is the first generation in human history to have a lower average IQ and reading comprehension than the generation before them. That's a wake-up call. Long-form reading builds your brain in a way that a 15-second video just can't. If you want to stay sharp, stay competitive, and keep growing, books are your edge. We also got into the power of implementing what you learn. Nick shared how reading Tim Ferriss's "The 4-Hour Work Week" literally inspired him to book a one-way ticket to Argentina with no contacts, no Spanish, and no plan. He got ripped off by a taxi driver and showed up to an Airbnb the building had never heard of. But five weeks later, he was making friends, learning Spanish, and becoming a more confident, self-reliant human. That's what books do when you actually act on them. The knowledge is cool, but the action is everything. Napoleon Hill said it best and Nick quoted it on air, action is the real measure of intelligence. We also talked about why writing a book might be the single best thing you can do as an entrepreneur. Not because it'll make you famous overnight, but because it's your best business card. It generates leads. It builds credibility. It can land you in rooms you never expected. Nick shared an incredible story about how a founder in Cairo, Egypt tracked him down on LinkedIn after reading "Rise of the Reader," offered him equity in a company, and brought him on as an advisor for a brand new AI reading platform called Sinai.ai. All because of a book. That's the long game playing out in real time. And speaking of real time, Nick is hosting Book Thinkers Live 2026 on July 11th and 12th in Boston on the Boston University campus. Over 400 authors are expected to attend and the speaker lineup includes legends like Jim Kwik and Rory Vaden. If you're an aspiring author or a published one who wants to actually use your book to build a business and make a real impact, this is the room to be in.
