Podcasts about buffers

Een kwartaal om door een ringetje te halen! ABN maakte meer winst, zag het rendement op het eigen vermogen toenemen, de buffers stijgen en de kosten zakken. Het was bovendien allemaal veel beter dan waarop analisten hadden gerekend. En de aandeelhouder? Die is blij, want het dividend gaat omhoog. Deze aflevering hebben we het over het succes van ABN. Waar doet de bank het goed en waar kunnen ze het nóg beter doen? Ook gaat het over de buffers van de bank. Die staan er zo goed voor, dat ze op overnamepad kunnen. Moeten ze dat ook doen? Verder duiken we in de wereld van cloudverhuur. We hebben het over een Amerikaanse hit, CoreWeave. De omzet verdubbelde en beleggers duiken op het aandeel. Een klein probleempje: het maakt nog altijd geen winst. Winst was er ook voor het Noorse staatsfonds, de grootste belegger van de wereld. In de eerst helft van het jaar een keurige 186 miljard dollar winst! Ook laten de Noren weten hoeveel aandelen ze precies in SpaceX hebben. Hello Kitty, jawel, komt ook nog voorbij deze aflevering. Je hoort wat de link tussen dit schattige wezentje en president Trump is.

Anyone who's ever done an interval session, or a hard effort in a race, knows that feeling of fatigue setting in as you hold on for dear life. But is this really all the result of lactic acid, or is something else going on? Can the nutrition strategies used in shorter, more intense events like track cycling or rowing now be applied in longer endurance sports to get more out of ourselves during those hard efforts in training or race day? And why, at this years' Tour de France, are we hearing stories emerge of cyclists consuming lactate, the very thing we're told is the root cause of all that suffering?   Timestamps: 05:14 - Intro and Bryan's change in workplace 10:42 - Lactate vs lactic acid, and its role in the body 17:08 - Lactate testing, thresholds and what it means for physiology 25:36 - The roles of lactate in body 30:12 - Fueling Endurance Practitioner Membership, T-12 course for athletes, eBook 32:38 - What are buffering supplements and why are they now being used in endurance sports? 40:33 - What is sodium bicarbonate and how does it work? 42:50 - Does the form of sodium bicarb matter (drink vs tablets vs capsules vs mini-tablets/hydrogel)? 49:07 - Sodium bicarb and gastrointestinal issues - how to avoid 54:22 - Dose of sodium bicarb for a performance effect 57:51 - Timing of bicarb for performance - why are cyclists taking it during exercise (rather than before)? 1:03:06 - Is there evidence that bicarb can work for performance in endurance training or competition? 1:05:24 - What is beta-alanine and how does it work? 1:06:50 - Dose and form of beta-alanine and potential side effects 1:09:33 - Need for prolonged supplementation with beta-alanine 1:12:58 - Evidence for beta-alanine or bicarb + beta-alanine combined for endurance performance 1:18:16 - Exogenous lactate supplements/gels 1:20:37 - Is the concept of exogenous lactate supplements new? 1:23:07 - Are the ways exogenous lactate is being used new in professional sport, and is there evidence it works? 1:26:44 - What's likely to happen next with exogenous lactate? 1:28:59 - Bryan's other current research 1:31:45 - Follow up re. exogenous lactate products 1:41:34 - Wrap up   Guest - Dr Bryan Saunders - University of São Paulo ResearchGate: researchgate.net/profile/Bryan-Saunders-2 X: @Bicycle_Bryan    Studies mentioned in this episode: Farias de Oliveira L et al.

In this episode, Jason continues his before-phase planning series with practical strategies teams can use to prepare construction phases more effectively. He explains how work packages, zone planning, buffers, multi-train flow, crew planning, and coordinated 3D models can make installation easier, safer, and more reliable. What you'll learn in this episode: How to align construction, engineering, procurement, and installation work packages. Why zone maps, density analysis, and deliberate buffer placement improve trade flow. How multi-train planning allows crews to work at their natural production rhythms. How Build Your Lego® sheets and coordinated 3D models support reliable field installation. What can your team prepare before the next phase begins to make installation simpler and more predictable?

Oil prices remain under pressure as the new Iran blockade raises fresh questions about how long global supplies can hold up without another major disruption.Chuck Zodda and Marc Fandetti break down why the Strait of Hormuz remains a key risk for oil markets, how depleted reserves and record-high crack spreads are keeping pressure on gas prices, and why China's oil demand could quickly change the global supply picture. They also discuss the hidden volatility beneath the S&P 500, why labor force participation may point to a tighter jobs market than headline numbers suggest, how the coming Boomer wealth transfer could widen the gap between wealthy families and everyone else, and why Kevin Warsh is using his first major testimony to build credibility as an inflation fighter.

In this episode, Jason explores why buffers are critical on construction projects and how proper before-phase planning sets the stage for smooth execution. Using a humorous analogy of navigating an In-N-Out drive-thru, he explains how insufficient buffers not only disrupt workflow but also put workers under unnecessary stress. What you'll learn in this episode: The difference between waiting you pay for versus waiting you don't. Why buffers are essential for both workflow and worker safety. How before-phase planning prevents delays and maximizes flow. Key pre-planning activities to execute a phase successfully. How small adjustments upstream save massive time downstream. Are you fully leveraging before-phase planning to keep your projects flowing without unnecessary stops?

Jesse Honig of 29 Pedals finally joins The Tone Mob, and we are digging all the way into the beautifully nerdy machinery of his story. Before launching 29 Pedals, Jesse spent years inside studios, tape machines, consoles, repair benches, and the general glowing underworld of professional audio. He worked as a roadie as a teenager, became a studio assistant in Philadelphia, built a life as a session player, engineer, and tech, then eventually found himself working with companies like Slate Digital and Manley Labs before deciding it was time to build something of his own. That something became EUNA, a deceptively “simple” pedal that helped turn the humble buffer into a serious tone tool. Blake and Jesse get into why guitars are terrible at driving cable, why input impedance matters, why pedalboards can be treated like modular studio channel strips, and why 29 Pedals approaches design from a very different angle. There is also talk of OAMP, fuzzes, overdrives, true bypass, manufacturing headaches, component changes, guitar strings, weird gear obsessions, and the joy of solving problems most people do not even realize they have.

In this episode, former Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Scott Karl traces his path from Carlsbad standout to big league starter to financial advisor. He swaps stories with Jeff about Bandon Dunes and his move from California to Lake Norman, then dives into his career, getting a last-minute shot after the '94 strike, surviving as a finesse pitcher in a power era, facing legends like Randy Johnson, Greg Maddux, and Sammy Sosa, and taking the mound during the 1998 home run chase. Scott shares how he lost roughly 70% of his portfolio in the dot-com bust while still playing, what it taught him about risk and advisors, and how it pushed him into wealth management. He explains why many athletes blow through life-changing money, how he builds portfolios with buffered ETFs, structured notes, and private credit, and how he manages expectations around upside, downside, and liquidity. The conversation widens to NIL, parents effectively betting travel-ball costs on scholarships, and the risk of turning college sports into a money race. Scott also talks about raising two Division I volleyball players, the mental side of high performance, and how those lessons carry into investing, before closing with his favorite baseball cities and parks, from Wrigley day games to the old Jake in Cleveland and nostalgic nights at Dodger Stadium.

Every now and then a new technology comes along that changes everything – electricity, computers, potentially AI. In mid-19th-century America, that technology was the steam locomotive. It knitted the US economy together, driving the nation's industrialisation during the Gilded Age. But along the way, it also caused one of the biggest financial crises in American history. FT Alphaville editor Robin Wigglesworth tells his co-host, FT columnist Gillian Tett, the story of the great railway bubble that ended in the Panic of 1873. It's also the story of the spectacular rise and fall of Jay Cooke, the greatest banker of his day, who lost a fortune betting on a railroad that would eventually span the North American continent – just not in time to repay its debts. Robin and Gillian discuss what lessons the financier's fate holds for the investors gambling on today's AI boom.Credits: New York Times Archive, Otto Herschan Collection/Hulton Archive/Getty Images, Hulton Archive/Getty ImagesFurther reading:Jay Cooke: Financier of the Civil War, by Ellis Paxson Oberholtzer (1907)Jay Cooke's gamble: the Northern Pacific Railroad, the Sioux, and the Panic of 1873, by M John Lubetkin (2006)Railroaded: The Transcontinentals and the Making of Modern America, by Richard White (2012)Pop!

Most property investors think success comes down to buying the right property at the right price.   But the truth is… the real difference between successful investors and those who struggle has very little to do with the property itself.   It comes down to strategy.   Because the investors who build long-term wealth don't just buy property - they build a long-term property strategy which includes a financial buffer that allows them to ride out the ups and downs of the market.   In other words, they buy themselves time.   In this episode, Brett Warren and I explore the essential elements of successful property investing, beyond just buying the right property.   We discuss the importance of strategic planning, financial buffers, and long-term thinking to ride market fluctuations and achieve wealth.   Join us as we provide insights to help you make informed business and investment decisions in the face of market volatility.   Takeaways   Strategic planning is key to property success. Financial buffers manage market volatility. Long-term thinking aids wealth building. Property investing requires discipline. Buffers buy time during downturns. Tailored strategies outperform generic advice. Successful investors plan for uncertainty. Debt is a tool, not a liability. Flexibility supports long-term growth. Mindset differentiates top investors.   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·         Win a hard copy of How To Grow A Multi-Million Dollar Property Portfolio In Your Spare Time. ·          Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report.   Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at: www.PodcastBonus.com.au   Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan.

A screencast from Chapter 14 in CH 223 entitled “Buffers”

Is Stephen Robinson about to be new manager for Aberdeen? Meanwhile, as the fall-out from Sunday's Old Firm fixture continues we ask where Celtic and Rangers are now and has the Motherwell bubble burst? With Charlotte Cohen, Stephen McGowan and Rory Loy.

In this episode, Jason breaks down a powerful concept inside the TACT Production System: using buffers in pace with the Remaining Buffer Ratio. Buffers are not contingency. They are intentional protection for specific phases of work and when used correctly, they eliminate rushing, pushing, and panic. The key is not whether you use buffers. The key is how responsibly you use them. Jason explains how the Remaining Buffer Ratio helps teams decide when to consume buffer and when to recover time another way  replacing traditional CPM tools like float reports, S-curves, and earned value metrics with something practical, visual, and flow-based. What you'll learn in this episode: The difference between schedule contingency and phase buffers. What the Remaining Buffer Ratio is and how to calculate it. Why buffers must be used in pace not all at once. How this KPI replaces slippage reports and float tracking. How to make buffer usage responsible and transparent. Are you managing buffers with intention… or reacting when it's too late?

In this episode, Jason clears up a major misconception: buffers are not shared float.When using the TACT Production System, buffers are intentionally built into phases to absorb risk and protect flow. They are not schedule contingency. They are not float. And they are not automatically owed to the owner under "shared float" contract language.Jason explains the difference between contract float and production buffers, why buffers belong to the contractor and trade partners, and how to ethically and transparently manage them within the framework of a project agreement. He also addresses concerns about legal language, time impact analysis, and how to have the right conversations with owners. What you'll learn in this episode: The difference between buffers, float, and contingency. Why buffers are phase-specific risk protection. How shared float clauses do not apply to buffers. The importance of transparency and good-faith communication. How to protect flow while staying ethical and contractually sound. Buffers protect production. Protect them wisely.

In this episode of Keep the Change, Coco Dee records with her long-time friend Kate Moloney to unpack how market hype drives FOMO and emotional decision-making, particularly for people new to investing. They respond to a viral influencer rant about Bitcoin, noting its 42% drop in six months, and use it as a case study in human behaviour, emotional attachment to assets, validation seeking, and shaming others into buying. Kate shares her approach as a systematic share trader, using coded rules, backtesting, stress testing, and clear exit strategies without attachment, and contrasts this with all-in investing that creates nervous system volatility and poor decisions. Together they emphasise capital preservation, having an exit plan, diversification (even within the same asset class), keeping a cash buffer, and running worst-case scenarios. Coco shares a real business example from opening a childcare where delays doubled the cash required, reinforcing why buffers matter and why you should never invest money you can't afford to have tied up. The episode wraps with a reminder to ignore online noise, avoid pedestal thinking, invest in line with your own risk profile, and let long-term strategy and compounding do the heavy lifting.00:00 Welcome to Keep the Change + Meet Kate Moloney"01:23 Why We're Here: Debunking Hype, FOMO & “Not Financial Advice”03:43 The Bitcoin Influencer Rant: What It Reveals About Investor Psychology05:46 Systematic Trading 101: Rules, Backtesting & Zero Emotion09:11 Capital Preservation & Drawdowns: Why Losses Hurt More Than You Think13:59 Stress-Testing Any Investment (Property, Business, Anything)17:22 Buffers & Diversification: Don't Put All Your Eggs in One Basket20:57 Get-Rich-Quick Myths vs Compound Interest (and Keeping Cash Aside)22:55 Know Yourself: Risk Profile, Nervous System & Ignoring Online Noise24:42 Lessons From Our Own Mistakes + Final Takeaways & Wrap-Up If you're after some more goodiesI have a FREE 5-Day Mindset Reset for you called Wealthy Women WinYou can also follow me on Instagram

Send a textChronic scarcity and instability can shape the nervous system in ways that look like anxiety, irritability, shutdown, or “burnout,” even when a person is working incredibly hard to survive. In this episode, we explore poverty, insecurity, and social exclusion as a society-shaped trauma pathway—where the threat is often not a single event, but ongoing conditions with limited control and limited recovery. Using simple polyvagal-informed language, we name common “invisible injuries” of scarcity stress, why shame so often gets layered on top, and what helps realistically—without pretending that regulation solves structural problems. We close with a short grounding practice designed to create a stabilising sense of contact, support, and one manageable next step.In this episode, you'll learnWhy poverty and social exclusion belong in trauma educationA clear nervous-system definition of scarcity stress (ongoing + low control + low recovery)Polyvagal-informed patterns: chronic mobilisation, shutdown, and cyclingCommon signs (non-diagnostic): sleep disruption, rumination, decision fatigue, shame, withdrawalWhat helps realistically: micro-stability anchors, 24-hour planning, buffers and community support, reducing shame exposureA grounding practice for stabilising under high loadGrounding practice (2–3 minutes): “3-Point Stabiliser”Find 3 points of contact (feet, back, hands)Press feet into the floor and release (twice)Phrase: “In this moment, I can take one step”Name one small next stepCheck the website for the free resources offered for both those affected by trauma and those supporting them.What's next: Migration & Displacement Trauma: Losing Home, Language, SelfSupport the show

Hollandser dan dit wordt het niet. We hebben het over de kwartaalcijfers van ABN Amro, Ahold Delhaize, Heineken én Randstad. AEX-bedrijven die het wisselend hebben gedaan.Je hoort deze aflevering over het leed dat beleggen in Randstad heet. De uitzender werd wéér afgestraft na wéér een kwartaal waarin de omzet afnam.

De vraag is waar het enthousiasme vandaan komt. Zijn het de goede resultaten of het feit dat de topman op overnamepad wil? Over topmannen gesproken. Die van Heineken zwaait af, maar doet dat niet alleen. Hij neemt duizenden collega's met zich mee. Een massaontslag als afscheid.Verder deze aflevering ook nog aandacht voor de cijfers van Mattel, Amerikaanse banencijfers én de macht van de Japanse premier op de beurshandel.

Seasonal slowdowns can shake even the most well-run therapy practices—especially group practices navigating payroll, profit, and growth at the same time. This week, I sat down with Stef Iverson and Lucinda Bibbs, business partners and recent graduates of Money Skills for Group Practice Owners, to talk through what it really looks like to manage cash flow during a summer slump while still honoring long-term vision, wellness, and expansion.“I think it's just that the clarity and the reassurance, right? That we're on the right track...knowing the numbers has really helped us make non-emotional decisions. And just having clarity on what's actually on the paper and what are those numbers actually telling us? They're telling us a story and they're holding up a mirror and they're allowing us to make changes and pivots as we, as we need to." - Stefanie IversonStef and Lucinda came into this conversation fresh off their first slower season since implementing Profit First—and instead of panic, they brought curiosity. We talked through how their profit account temporarily buffered operating expenses, what that revealed about their numbers, and how to proactively plan for next summer so slow seasons don't feel scary or reactive.Using Financial Clarity to Stay Grounded During Seasonal Revenue DipsWhat stood out most to me was how empowering it can be to replace “scrambling” with structure. When you know your numbers and intentionally build safety into your business, you give yourself permission to rest, plan, and make thoughtful decisions—even when revenue temporarily dips.(00:03:34) Navigating Profit Slumps & Business Growth Effectively(00:07:12) Savings Buffer Analysis to Prevent Pulling from Profit(00:12:29) Consistent Owner Draws and Keeping Profit Separate(00:16:06) Preparing for Economic Uncertainty and Anticipated Slow Seasons(00:20:58) Balancing Leadership and Growth with Work, Delegation, and Passions(00:26:45) Prioritizing Your Energy and Your Relationships(00:30:54) A Successful Partnership Built on Transparency(00:34:10) Evaluating and Expanding Services Offered(00:38:18) Tree Metaphor for Growth - With a Stable Trunk, Your Branches Can ReachStability First, Then Innovation: Growing Without Undermining the FoundationWe talked through how to experiment with offering new wellness services without neglecting the “main ship” of the group practice—and how to tell the difference between an idea that needs more time versus one that isn't financially aligned right now.Key Takeaways for Therapists Navigating Slow Seasons or Growth Build buffers before you need them. Aim to have 2–3 months of operating expenses in your account so seasonal dips don't trigger panic.Let stability lead. It's okay to temporarily prioritize cash reserves over profit distributions.Test new offerings slowly. Pilot, track results, and adjust before fully committing.Protect the core practice. New ideas are exciting, but the existing business needs consistent care.Communicate clearly with partners. Transparency reduces emotional decision-making and strengthens trust.Slow seasons don't mean you're doing something wrong—they're part of running a real business. With clear numbers, intentional buffers, and honest conversations, you can build a practice that feels both secure and flexible enough to grow in the directions that matter most to you.Ready to Improve your Business Money Skills?Are you a Solo Private Practice Owner?

Saturated buffers are a growing edge-of-field conservation practice designed to improve water quality by keeping nitrates in the soil and out of nearby streams. In this Successful Farming Saturday Short, Jim Jordahl of the Iowa Agriculture Water Alliance explains how saturated buffers work, where they can be installed, and why they're an effective, low-maintenance option for reducing nitrate loss from tile-drained fields.

Is the so-called “18.6-year property crash” a hidden law of markets, or just a neat story that keeps good investors stuck on the sidelines? If you’ve been sitting on your hands because “the big crash is coming”, this episode is for you. In this solo deep-dive, Bushy pulls the 18.6-year cycle out of the internet echo chamber and puts it back where it belongs: as a lens, not a leash. Because while cycles do exist, markets don’t move like a metronome - and waiting for perfect timing has quietly cost many Australians a decade of compounding. In this episode, Bushy breaks down: Why the 18.6-year crash narrative is often clickbait - tidy, seductive, and dangerously freezing The real risk of half-right ideas: enough truth to feel safe, not enough to act safely Why “I’ll wait for the crash” usually fails - bottoms feel terrifying, credit tightens, and most people freeze Why property isn’t one market, but thousands of micro-markets moving at different speeds What cycles actually reflect (hint: credit, confidence, and liquidity - not dates on a calendar) How waiting for perfect timing can be more expensive than buying imperfectly well Why cycles should inform risk awareness, not fuel timing obsession The practical framework you’ll take away: Instead of betting your future on cycle dates, Bushy shows you how to focus on what you can actually control: Buffers and borrowing power A clear buy box Local, street-level market intelligence A long-term holding plan designed to survive uncertainty Plus, Bushy revisits the fundamentals that matter most - the 3 I’s and 3 P’s that create real growth gravity: Infrastructure, Industry diversity, Income growth Overlaid with Population, Policy, and Perception (sentiment) No crystal balls. No crash countdowns. Just calm, practical strategy.

12 Game-Changing Time Management Principles for Doctors Time is the ONE resource you can't make more of—so let's make sure you're spending it on what actually matters!

Ever wonder how a legal buffer can shave nearly a minute off a 40K time trial? We sit down with freshly minted PhD Eli Shannon to unpack the science and the tactics behind sodium bicarbonate, from the lab to the start line. Eli explains why an hour-long ride is anything but steady state and how surges, climbs, and late-race kicks amplify the value of buffering hydrogen ions when it matters most.We dig into the numbers: an average 1.4% improvement for trained male cyclists, translating to about 54 seconds saved. Eli breaks down practical dosing that busy athletes can use—why 0.3 g/kg remains the benchmark, when 0.2 g/kg might suffice, and how to convert that to simple grams for a 70 kg rider. Delivery is everything, so we drill into hydrogel systems designed to reduce GI distress, and we set a clear timing window of 90–120 minutes before the gun. You'll hear how blood bicarbonate rises, dips early with fast pacing, then stays elevated enough to support decisive efforts in the final kilometers.Race-day logistics matter. We walk through smart top-up strategies between heats or double events without overdoing sodium. We talk heat, hydration, and why you should practice your plan before it counts. And we set the record straight on “lactic acid,” highlighting how lactate is fuel while hydrogen ions drive acidosis. We also touch on beta-alanine's intracellular buffering and how it pairs with bicarbonate in sports defined by repeated 30–240-second surges.BIO:  Eli Shannon recently successfully defended his PhD at his viva voce in Exercise Physiology, Metabolism and Nutrition at Edge Hill University, Ormskirk, UK. Eli's research focused on the effects of sodium bicarbonate ingestion on prolonged high-intensity exercise performance and metabolism in both normoxia and acute normobaric hypoxia. Prior to this, Eli completed his bachelor's degree (BSc, Hons) in Sport and Exercise Science and master's degree (MSc) in Exercise Physiology at York St. John University, York, UK. During his time in York, Eli also spent four years playing full-time soccer against professional academies at the i2i International Soccer Academy. Eli's research interests primarily focus on enhancing exercise performance through nutritional and physiological interventions. 

Have you ever looked at a successful property investor and thought – they just got lucky? They bought at the right time, in the right suburb, and everything seemed to go their way. But here's the truth: most successful investors don't wait for luck – they create it.   In today's show, I'm joined by Brett Warren, national Director of Property at Metropole and together we're going to pull back the curtain on what really drives success in property. You'll discover why some investors always seem to be in the right place at the right time, while others miss out again and again.   We'll share the habits, strategies, and mindset shifts that can help you manufacture your own luck – and set yourself up to take advantage of opportunities that others never see.   So, whether you're just starting out or looking to take your portfolio to the next level, stick around – because this episode could change the way you think about property investing forever.   Takeaways  ·         Successful investors don't rely solely on luck; they create their own opportunities. ·         Preparation and having a clear strategy are crucial for success in property investment. ·         Surrounding yourself with a knowledgeable team can alleviate stress and enhance decision-making. ·         Mindset is a significant differentiator between successful and average investors. ·         Investors should focus on long-term goals rather than short-term gains. ·         Capital growth is more important than cash flow for long-term wealth. ·         Successful investors continuously learn and adapt to market changes. ·         Delaying gratification is essential for building wealth over time. ·         Investing through multiple market cycles helps build resilience and expertise. ·         Real-life examples show that informed decisions lead to significant equity growth.     Chapters  01:36 - Are Successful Investors Just Lucky?  05:27 - The Myth of Perfect Timing in Property  09:08 - Building Luck with Teams, Buffers and Strategy  13:06 - Mindset, Long-Term Goals and Delayed Gratification  17:16 - Real Client Stories That Prove Preparation Beats Luck   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·        Win a hard copy of Michael Yardney's Guide to Investing ·        Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report   Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at www.PodcastBonus.com.au     Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan Click here and have a chat with us   Michael Yardney – Subscribe to my Property Update newsletter here      Brett Warren - National Director of Property at Metropole     Also, please subscribe to my other podcast Demographics Decoded with Simon Kuestenmacher – just look for  Demographics Decoded wherever you are listening to this podcast and subscribe so each week we can unveil the trends shaping your future.

Thanks for joining me in Session 315 of The Behavioral Observations Podcast. In this episode, I spoke with Drs. Gabi Morgan and David Adams to dive deep into trauma-informed behavior analysis. Gabi brings her 30-year journey in the field—from undergrad roots to professorship at Bay Path University—while David shares his evolution from child and family therapy to clinical psychology, with a heavy focus on foster and adoptive parenting. Both guests are passionate about closing the divide between trauma therapy and behavioral strategies, and they credit mentors like Dr. Jeannie Golden for lighting the way. We kick things off by unpacking what trauma really means. In doing so, as a content warning, please be aware that we do make general references to a variety of traumatic and adverse experiences. Having said that, David walks us through SAMHSA's three-part definition: the event, the experience, and the effects. It's not the event itself that defines trauma—it's the individual's response. He introduces "adverse conditioning experiences" as a behavior-analytic twist on adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), spotlighting how negative associations get wired in through conditioning. From there, we contrast PTSD and complex PTSD. Same core symptoms (intrusive thoughts, avoidance, etc.), but complex PTSD adds prolonged exposure and three extra layers: impaired self-worth, rocky relationships, and emotional dysregulation. Gabi drives home a critical point: folks with developmental disabilities are at higher risk for trauma but often fly under the diagnostic radar. We need to get better at spotting trauma-related behaviors in this population. Screening, Brain Science, and Practical Strategies Screening is a big theme. We all agree behavior analysts aren't formally trained in assessment, but we have to be aware of how this is done. Gabi loves the Child Health and Development Institute's Child Trauma Screen (CTS), and the Massachusetts Child and Adolescent Needs and Strengths (Mass CANS) tool.  David then nerds out on the neurobiology: trauma affects the amygdala (hypervigilance), hippocampus (memory glitches), hypothalamus (stress gone haywire), and frontal lobe (decision-making on the fritz). Enter the "amygdala hijack"—when fear short-circuits rational thought. Bottom line? Kids in fight-or-flight aren't in a teachable moment. Safety and calm have to come first. We close the show with actionable takeaways: risk-benefit analyses for every intervention (especially with histories of food neglect), "kind extinction" (empathy + withholding reinforcers), and the six pillars of trauma-informed care (safety, trustworthiness, peer support, collaboration, empowerment, cultural competence). TIC isn't a "hyphenated" ABA—it's the whole framework. Advice for new BCBAs? Seek trauma training, question "business as usual," and be the stable adult in a kid's chaotic world.

Is Ukraine on a fast track to peace—or about to hit the buffers? Washington says “no US boots on the ground” (for now), while Gaza still starves under bombardment and a media blackout. On The Mother of All Talk Shows, George Galloway cuts through the spin with two heavyweight guests.

This episode was recorded at the 2025 Florida Ruminant Nutrition Symposium. Dr. Bach gives an overview of his presentation, highlighting that buffers make the rumen resistant to a decrease in pH while alkalizers immediately increase rumen pH. He prefers magnesium oxide, an alkalizer, over sodium bicarbonate, a buffer. Both are effective, but sodium bicarbonate requires a larger amount, thus taking up more room in the diet. The magnesium oxide must be of high quality and soluble in the rumen. (3:40)Dr. Richards asks if we should use magnesium oxide more as a first line of defense against acidosis. Dr. Bach notes that the very best strategy is to avoid using either additive by making a proper ration balanced in terms of amount and rate of degradation of starch. But there are many constraints in the field, so he recommends using magnesium oxide before sodium bicarbonate. For the magnesium oxide to be effective, it must be solubilized in the rumen to magnesium hydroxide, and solubility can be tested in a variety of ways to determine quality. (7:35)The panel discusses the impact of magnesium oxide in place of sodium bicarbonate on DCAD and which DCAD equation(s) should be used for calculations. Dr. Bach recommends removing sodium bicarbonate from rations containing less than 1% of the ingredient. It will have little effect on the rumen, but make room in the ration. The panel explores how this can impact farm-level economics. (12:39)Dr. Bach also mentions probiotics and their impact on rumen function. In vitro studies have shown a wide variety of modes of action and positive results. Extrapolating in vitro doses to the cow often results in unsustainable amounts of the additive needing to be fed. Applied studies at the cow level have yielded inconsistent results. (23:29)Scott asks how long Dr. Bach has been making the case for pulling sodium bicarbonate out and putting magnesium oxide in, and what kind of pushback he has received. Dr. Bach gives some of the reasons farmers have given for not wanting to make this management change. He also notes that farmers who do make the switch do not tend to go back to sodium bicarbonate. (25:18)Dr. Bach and Maimie discuss grass silage diets and grazing diets with high amounts of moisture and how best to combat acidosis symptoms with those. In diets like this, where you're not trying to make room for energy, sodium bicarbonate can be a good choice. Dr. Richards chimes in with questions about the ratio of the two ingredients; Dr. Bach indicates the ratio doesn't mean much to him. (26:16)Panelists share their take-home thoughts.
