In this powerful episode, board-certified urologist Dr. Kelly Casperson exposes the gender bias in medicine and reveals why testosterone may be the missing link in women's mood, motivation, and longevity. One of the few female urologists in the U.S., Dr. Kelly is rewriting the narrative on hormones—explaining why testosterone isn't “just for men” and why, after 90 years, the FDA still hasn't approved it for women. Her message is clear: women are not broken. Whether you're in your 30s, perimenopause, or beyond, this episode will change how you see your biology—and your power. About Dr. Casperson Dr. Kelly Casperson is a urologist, author, speaker, and educator transforming the way women understand their bodies. She empowers women of all ages to embrace sexual health, hormone balance, and intimacy with confidence and curiosity. With humor and candor, she dismantles shame-based myths and teaches one powerful truth: You Are Not Broken.

Patrick McKenzie (patio11) is joined by Oliver Habryka, who runs Lightcone Infrastructure—the organization behind both the LessWrong forum and the Lighthaven conference venue in Berkeley. They explore how LessWrong became one of the most intellectually consequential forums on the internet, the surprising challenges of running a hotel with fractal geometry, and why Berkeley's building regulations include an explicit permission to plug in a lamp. The conversation ranges from fire codes that inadvertently shape traffic deaths, to nonprofit fundraising strategies borrowed from church capital campaigns, to why coordination is scarcer than money in philanthropy.–Full transcript available here: www.complexsystemspodcast.com/bits-and-bricks-oliver-habryka/–Sponsor: MercuryThis episode is brought to you by Mercury, the fintech trusted by 200K+ companies — from first milestones to running complex systems.

Ever since a tornado tore through one of St. Louis, Missouri's poorest neighborhoods, there are piles of bricks all over the place. It's not just a debris problem. Bricks in St. Louis have a long and complicated history here – the darling of many historic preservationists and a good source of profit to just as many demolition crews. Producer Marina Henke spent a week in North City, tagging along with a brick layer who's racing against the clock to build back homes. Can North City keep its bricks? Should they even try?Featuring Natalie Hughes, RJ Koscielniak, and Rasheen Aldridge.Produced by Marina Henke.

One of the most highly-regarded English-language strips of all time is George Herriman's Krazy Kat, featuring the odd love/hate triangle of Krazy, Ignatz, and Officer Pupp. Why was Krazy so gender-ambiguous? How did Herriman's (somewhat mysterious) racial background influence the strip? Tim and Kumar discuss this and much more. (Originally published September 2, 2013.)

PREVIEW HEADLINE: The Earliest Printing Press: Stamped Bricks of Mesopotamia GUEST NAME: Muriel al-Rashid SUMMARY: John Bachelor interviewed author Muriel al-Rashid about her book Between Two Rivers: The Story of Mesopotamian Civilizations. The conversation covered stamped bricks used in ziggurats, like the one built by Ur-Nammu at Ur around 2000 BCE. These stamps served as the earliest printing press, detailing the builder, the building, and the dedication to a god, eliminating the need for scribes. 1923 BAGHDAD

Some inherit wealth. Some inherit trauma. She inherited the shadows. From childhood, she felt eyes drilling into the back of her skull, an unseen predator stalking her every move. Her father called it hunting. At six years old, he trained her to move in silence, to read the difference between natural sounds in the woods and something imitating them. But what he was really preparing her for wasn't deer—it was demons. The family home in Buffalo became the crucible. Her best friend was a ghost girl named Mary. But Mary wasn't alone. Toys floated around her bed. Bricks hurled themselves across basements. Something darker stalked the house. Then, without explanation, the home was condemned and wiped from maps—as though the earth itself swallowed it. Her father died in 2003, labeled a suicide. She doesn't believe it. The night before, he spoke in riddles, leaving her a final puzzle. Six years later, she solved it: he didn't take his life. Something else took it. Now in her twenties, she keeps three knives and a katana by her bed. She dreams of endless eyes watching, migraines splitting her skull like messages from the other side. Her family line is cursed with visions—her great-grandmother predicted deaths to the exact day, her cousin dreamed of her but never dared reveal why. This isn't just a haunting. It's an inheritance. And she believes one day she'll finish her father's work—hunting what has hunted her bloodline for generations. #TrueGhostStory #DemonHunter #RealHaunting #ParanormalStory #HauntedHouse #DarkInheritance #SupernaturalEncounters #TheGraveTalks #GhostStoriesOnline #UnexplainedPhenomena #GenerationalCurse #ShadowEntity Love real ghost stories?

Journal prompt: Today's flicker of hope was…This week..."Hope in the Hollow" Now, October. After the volume of Suicide Awareness Month, we drop into the quieter work. This DAILY NUGGET Series is called Hope, Healing, Becoming. It's here to carry us—and embolden us—through a tough stretch of the year. We didn't choose this road, but we can choose how we respond to it.  This month, we practice the response—the inch we can actually take.Here's how the daily rhythm will go. Each episode is 5–7 minutes and touches three beats:Flicker (Hope): what's true right now—a small light you can actually hold.Rebuild (Healing): one concrete practice that steadies your body, heart, or world.Step (Becoming): a gentle move toward who you're becoming, without abandoning who you've been.You'll also get a short journal prompt and a three‑option “choose your energy” menu so you can pick the action that fits today. No gold stars. No toxic positivity. Just honest company and workable steps. Flicker (Hope) — The hollow isn't empty  After the casseroles and check-ins fade, the hollow remains—the space grief carved. Not nothingness. Space. Quiet enough to hear your own breath. Hope belongs here because you're still here. It's not a floodlight; it's a cupped match. Let one warm thing count today. That's enough.Rebuild (Healing) — 90 seconds to lower activation You don't need to be “triggered” to deserve care. When the body spikes, go small:Name & notice (30s): “Right now I feel… [tight chest / foggy / restless].”4-count breath (45s): In 4 • hold 4 • out 6–8. Repeat 5–6 times.One brick (15s): Tiny action—sip water, crack a window, text “I'm here.” Bricks, not blueprints.Step (Becoming) — A micro-act that includes you Becoming isn't betrayal. Carry them—and you. Pick one identity word (listener, maker, advocate, steady, seeker). Do a ≤10-minute act that fits: lay out your journal, message a meetup lead, chop one ingredient, confirm a therapy slot, stand in a patch of sun. Put it on the calendar. Small on purpose; momentum over spectacle.Choose‑your‑energy menu:If you're in the hollow (low capacity): Put both feet on the floor and breathe out longer than you breathe in, five times. That's the whole assignment.If you're in healing mode (medium capacity): Send this text to one safe person: “Could you witness me for five minutes today—no fixing, just ears?”If you're ready to become (higher capacity): Do your ten‑minute identity micro‑act. When you're done, say their name and yours. Both belong.Take a breath. Notice what softened. Keep only what helps. I'll be here again tomorrow. Talk soon.

In this episode of Ageless Future, Regan Archibald sits down with entrepreneur and author Garnet Morris to unpack the “mental bricks” that stall progress—and how coachability, values, and ambition can knock them down. Morris shares his late-in-life transformation (quitting two-pack-a-day smoking, losing ~150 pounds) sparked by getting coaches and treating health like a Porsche: proactive diagnostics, small annual adjustments, and no junk in the tank. He outlines community-scale plans to improve population health—starting in Mississippi and challenging Utah to become America's healthiest state—through simple, scalable fundamentals (movement, nutrition), authentic storytelling, and partnerships with hospitals, schools, and churches. They explore why AI can supercharge marketing but not replace human-to-human sales or accountability, why trades and hands-on roles remain resilient, and how women's health demands research- and lifestyle-driven care beyond hormones. The throughline: lead, ask for help, build local momentum, and make “best” your mission.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/garnet-morris-9b244947/Garnet Morris is a seasoned entrepreneur and financial strategist whose career spans five decades and multiple industries. Originally from Saskatchewan, he began in banking before purchasing and running a hotel in his early twenties. He later led a Credit Union as CEO with a focus on commercial lending, then returned to the hotel business, gaining deep operational experience. In 1985, he pivoted to the insurance industry where he built and sold three successful agencies. Demonstrating an enduring entrepreneurial spirit, in 2020 he founded a life insurance company in Barbados and launched Grasslands Finance Corp., a company specializing in innovative lending. Garnet also founded Healthcode Medical, a leading diagnostic clinic in North America. Today, he remains active as an investor in over 15 private companies through his family office, with a passion for business, philanthropy, and car collecting.

Most construction companies think they're using BIM. They're not. And it's costing them 20% on every project.In this episode of Bricks & Bytes, Owen sits down with Dave from Procore's BIM team and Tore Hovland, founder of NovaRender (recently acquired by Procore), to unpack what's really happening in the BIM space and why two major acquisitions just changed the game.Key topics discussed:Why BIM adoption is actually 20-30%, not the 70% everyone claimsThe hidden 2GB browser limit killing your ability to view large modelsHow building from 2D vs 3D vs full BIM changes cost overruns from 20% to 5%Why Procore spent millions acquiring NovaRender and Flypaper simultaneouslyThe streaming technology that lets you open 50-mile infrastructure projects in secondsWhat 80% of acquisitions fail and why culture matters more than techThe future where construction happens without drawings"Where we're going, there are no drawings. You could actually build off the model. It could actually be the permit that goes out." - Dave, ProcoreIf you've ever wondered why your BIM models won't load, why projects keep going over budget, or what the hell is actually happening with construction technology right now, this episode breaks it all down.---------------Our Sponsor: Archdesk - “The #1 Construction Management Software for Growing Companies - Manage your projects from Tender to Handover” check archdesk.comBuildVision - streamlining the construction supply chain with a unified platform - www.buildvision.ioChapters00:00 Intro02:00 Introduction to Procore and NovaRender Acquisition04:02 Winning BIM: Strategies and Challenges06:52 The Significance of NovaRender in BIM12:04 The Vision Behind NovaRender's Creation15:42 The Decision to Partner with Procore16:57 Acquisition of Flypaper: Enhancing BIM Solutions19:51 BIM Adoption Trends and Statistics23:47 The Impact of BIM on Project Costs28:49 Procore's Growth Strategy in Europe30:26 The Importance of Data Ownership in BIM37:41 Dave's Background and Its Influence on Procore39:16 The Evolution of BIM and Sustainable Construction41:04 User-Centric Design in Construction Technology42:45 Streamlining BIM Models for Field Use45:40 Defining Success in BIM Adoption50:20 Lessons from Founding NoRender54:17 The Acquisition Process: Insights and Experiences01:03:53 Future Predictions for BIM and Construction Technology

Et bien, même ici on me propose de remplacer ma créativité par une IA ! Que serait un podcast des MIB sans ma prose, cette petite touche peu organisée reflétant ma pensée étonnamment rangée.Étonnamment rangée, comme ce nouvel épisode made in London. Un peu de vrac, un peu de présentation et surtout beaucoup de rigolade. Je dois avouer avoir été un peu dissipé ce soir et, pour une fois, avoir endossé le rôle du trublion perturbateur du sérieux Panda.Étonnamment installé également, comme un peu à chaque fois… sur le bord d'un lit avec un mini bureau, des bonbons et beaucoup de bonne humeur (et après une maxi pizza !).Et enfin, étonnamment monté, enfin presque pas monté, mais ça, avec le temps, vous vous y êtes habitués !Un épisode qui conclut un week-end de rêve en espérant qu'il vous fasse autant sourire que nous rigoler.Hébergé par Ausha.

Everyone expects the dangers of this world to attack from outside the comforts of home. However, with divorces taking place at alarming rates, attacks from without are being replaced with staggering disintegration from within. Divorce stands as the final ruin of a house that has fallen in on itself. If you or a member of your family hasn't fallen victim to divorce, it almost certainly has affected a number of your friends and acquaintances. The reality of crumbling marriages in our world should cause God's people to stand up and take notice. Thankfully, the Bible provides clear direction regarding the proper materials it takes to build a lasting marriage.Download Message Mates To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1118/29

In this podcast episode, host Michelle Frechette interviews Adam Preiser and Andre Gagnon, co-founders of SureCart, a managed e-commerce platform for WordPress. They discuss SureCart's user-friendly features, flexible pricing, robust subscription management, and seamless integrations. The conversation highlights how SureCart simplifies online selling for merchants and agencies, offers transparent pricing, and supports both digital and physical products. Listeners ask questions about selling digital goods, reporting, and payment options. The episode concludes with community engagement details and upcoming events, showcasing SureCart's commitment to merchant success and innovation.Top Takeaways:Accessibility and Customizability Are Core Priorities: SureCart places a strong emphasis on accessibility, including keyboard navigation, screen readers, and focus management. Every new feature undergoes extensive accessibility testing. At the same time, the platform is highly customizable, allowing users to modify templates for products, carts, checkouts, and even customer areas. This is particularly valuable for agencies building stores for clients with specific design requirements.Flexibility and Seamless Integration Simplify E-Commerce: SureCart supports multiple pricing options—including one-time payments, subscriptions, and installment plans—and integrates seamlessly with page builders like Elementor and Bricks. It eliminates the need for multiple third-party plugins, offering built-in shipping, taxes, upsells, affiliates, and abandoned cart recovery. Merchants can manage both digital products (like photography) and services, including instant checkout pages for streamlined selling.Advanced Reporting and Subscription Management: The platform provides detailed reporting dashboards with KPIs and subscription analytics, making it easy to track sales, refunds, churn, and growth. Subscription management is automated, including failed payment recovery and options to retain customers through discounts or pauses. Integrations with tools like Zapier allow merchants to trigger automated actions and workflows, enhancing customer retention and operational efficiency.Transparent Pricing, Scalable Plans, and Upcoming Features: SureCart offers a simple pricing model: free plan with a 1.9% transaction fee, or paid annual plans ($179/year for a single store) with all features included and no transaction fees. Plans scale from one store to unlimited stores, ideal for agencies. Upcoming features include starter templates, product reviews, automated fees and discounts, custom report builders, and integration with Razor Pay for international payments. The team maintains a customer-focused, approachable philosophy, prioritizing feedback and ongoing improvements.Mentioned In The Show:SureCartWP CrafterCartFlowsElementorBricks BuilderOtto KitZapier

"85% of AI use cases are being evaluated by the engineer who built it saying, 'yep, seemed to work pretty well.' If you're gonna build a system that's going to be critical to the business, that's going to be important that it gets it right, then you can't do that without evaluations." - Craig Wiley Fresh out of the studio, Craig Wiley, Senior Director of Product Management at Databricks who leads Mosaic AI, joins us to discuss the forefront of enterprise AI from model development to deployment at scale. Beginning with his career journey in ML operations, Craig explained how he recognized the critical connection between data and AI layers that could deliver order-of-magnitude acceleration in development cycles. Emphasizing the transition from classical ML operations to LLM operations, he showcased how Databricks' unified platform eliminates training-serving skew through data lineage capabilities and supports both fine-tuning and RAG approaches depending on industrial use case requirements. Highlighting compelling customer success stories including Suncorp's employee productivity platform and AstraZeneca's transformation of 400,000 clinical trial documents into queryable insights, Craig revealed a striking reality about enterprise AI evaluation - that 85% of AI use cases are being evaluated only by the engineers who built them, reinforcing that proper evaluation frameworks remain foundational for trustworthy AI implementation. He concluded by introducing Agent Bricks as Databricks' evaluation-centric approach to building production agents, emphasizing that model flexibility and rigorous testing are essential for enterprises moving from experimentation to production, while sharing his vision that the industry must evolve from the "year of agents" to the "year of evaluation and quality."

PREVIEW: GUEST: Moudhy al-Rashid SUMMARY: Moudhy al-Rashid discusses her book, Between Two Rivers, focusing on stamped bricks found in Mesopotamian ziggurats (like Ur). These 4,000-5,000-year-old stamps, deemed the earliest printing press, recorded the king's name (like Ur-Nammu, c. 2000 BCE) and the god to whom the building was dedicated. Stamping bypassed the need for scribes. 1923 BAGHDAD

Straight from Copenhagen, a conversation with Rasmus Nørgaard, co-founder of Urban Partners, Home.Earth and Nordhus with over two decades of experience in real estate, pushing the boundaries of sustainability within conventional systems. With Rasmus we dive deep into the world of real estate. The built environment is one of the three major sectors that needs a complete systems change, alongside with agrifood and energy.What happens when you reimagine real estate development from first principles? What can the regenerative agriculture and food sector learn from one of the pioneers of sustainable real estate? Rasmus shares the revolutionary approach behind Home.Earth, a company proving that sustainable, affordable housing can also be profitable. He is building a much more holistic for-profit company that is reinventing real estate from the ground up. Yes, we talk a lot about buildings and homes, but there are so many overlaps with agriculture and food. Let's face it: soil is a real asset in investment terms.More about this episode.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

Your home is often one of your largest assets—but how do you actually use that equity to improve your lifestyle, reduce financial stress, or create a safety net? In this week's episode, host David Chudyk, CFP®, is joined by Archie Johnson of Mutual of Omaha Mortgage to explore how retirees and high earners can strategically access their home's equity.They break down how tools like the Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) can eliminate mortgage payments, provide a line of credit, and even help buffer against market downturns. This strategy can free up cash for travel, family support, long-term care needs, or simply enjoying retirement without financial worry.What You'll Learn in This Episode✅ Why home equity is often an untapped piece of your net worth.✅ How retirees can eliminate monthly mortgage payments without draining their investments.✅ The role of home equity in protecting against sequence-of-returns risk during market downturns.✅ Real-world ways clients have used freed-up cash—travel, family gifts, long-term care, and more.✅ The FHA's protections and counseling requirements that ensure retirees make informed decisions.✅ How HECM loans differ from traditional mortgages and what happens when a borrower passes away.✅ The flexibility of using home equity for both refinancing and purchasing a new home.Key Quote from Archie Johnson“For the right person, a Home Equity Conversion Mortgage can be life-changing. It's not about debt—it's about freedom, flexibility, and creating options in retirement.”Connect with Our Guest

As the NBA announced an investigation in response to Pablo's reporting on Kawhi Leonard and the Clippers, he turned a Twitter war with the longtime Dallas Mavericks owner into an exclusive, impromptu debate. It was congenial and contentious, hypothetical and hyperbolic — and very, very revealing. About the secret world of billionaires and sports ownership. About oversight and due diligence and responsibility. About scams and sharks and toilets and, yes, Uncle Dennis.• Previously on PTFO: The Richest Owner in Sports, the Silent Superstar and the Rotten Apple Tree Hosted on Acast.
