Olivia Fox Cabane (The Charisma Myth, The Net and the Butterfly) is a bestselling author, speaker, and leading authority on the science of charisma. Olivia joins Armchair Expert to discuss growing up in Paris without television or movies, receiving an autism diagnosis in her 40s, and decoding the “secret manual” of human interaction. Olivia and Dax talk about translating charisma research into a teachable system, showing founders why body language can outweigh a flawless pitch, and updating her book with cutting-edge research on digital charisma. Olivia explains why focused listening gives introverts an advantage, why genuine warmth cannot be faked, and how too much charisma can leave powerful people dangerously unaccountable.Check Allstate first for a quote that could save you hundreds: https://www.allstate.com/Take printer ink off your back to school list with HP Smart Tank | https://hp.com/SmartTank See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today, we are exploring the lives of insects, and some of the incredible abilities they've evolved to enable them to thrive. Coming up, the fly larvae that can withstand huge pressures in some of the world's deepest lakes; the butterfly caterpillar that pretends it's an ant to blag free board, lodgings and even ant grubs to eat inside ant nests, and the remarkable visual systems of wasps that enables them to home-in unerringly on picnics.

In this episode of Can I Getta Amen, Kristi sits down with Connie LeBlanc for a conversation about healing, faith, forgiveness, suffering, and redemption.Connie shares honestly about the difficult experiences that shaped her childhood and the ways those experiences affected how she saw herself, her family, and even her relationship with God. But her story doesn't end there.Through Jesus Christ, prayer, community, and a deeper Catholic faith, Connie discovered that the things she once saw only as wounds could become part of something much greater.From learning to forgive, to recognizing the Holy Spirit's promptings, to discovering a deeper purpose for her life, Connie's testimony is ultimately a story about what God can do when we surrender our past to Him.She describes it as going from a cocoon to a butterfly.If you've ever struggled to understand your past, wondered where God was in the middle of your suffering, or questioned whether He can really bring something good from painful experiences, this conversation is for you.There is always hope in Jesus Christ.

Struggling to declutter your home without it feeling cold, empty, or boring? In this episode, I sit down with Myquillyn Smith — author, home decor expert, and the mind behind The Nester — to talk all about house hushing, decluttering, and creating a soulful, cozy home you actually love. Myquillyn coined the term "house hushing," and in her brand new book (out August 25th!), she breaks it down into genius methods for quieting the visual noise in your home without sacrificing the beauty, coziness, and meaningful layers that make a house feel like you. We dig into backwards decluttering, quiet decorating, why every home has its own personality and soul, and how to actually stop stuff-shuffling into doom boxes forever (I'm looking at myself here). We also get into: ✨ Why "less stuff" doesn't have to mean "boring beige minimalism" ✨ How to find your home's holding zone without creating a new mess ✨ The difference between decorating and soulful styling ✨ Why a cabinet of curiosities might be the answer to displaying your sentimental stuff ✨ How your organizing style (Ladybug, Cricket, Bee, or Butterfly!) affects how you should hush your space If you've ever felt like your home needs to be either "minimalist" or "full of meaningful stuff" — but never both — this episode (and Myquillyn's book, House Hushing) is going to change how you think about your space completely.

Hosted by Chris Beckett & Shane Ludtke, two amateur astronomers in Saskatchewan who enjoy teaching astronomy classes and showing the public views through their telescopes. actualastronomy@gmail.com   On Episode 547 of Actual Astronomy, hosts Chris and Shane guide listeners through observing an array of August Messier objects across the constellations Ophiuchus, Scorpius, and Sagittarius. The show details viewing techniques for globular and open clusters—highlighting targets like the egg-shaped globular M19, the historical Ptolemy's Cluster (M7), and the beginner-friendly M23. Additionally, they explore iconic Milky Way nebulae, including the active star-forming Lagoon Nebula (M8) and the nearby Trifid Nebula (M20) with its distinctive three-lobed dark dust lanes.   1. M10 & M12 (Globular Clusters in Ophiuchus) - Binoculars: Sweeping through central Ophiuchus reveals these two bright globulars in the same binocular field. They appear as soft, distinct bluishgray spheres. - Telescope: In an 8-inch telescope, M12 resolves well into individual stars across its core, while M10 appears somewhat more tightly packed, brighter toward the center, and slightly fuzzier at the edges. - Compare the two side-by-side: Despite being located near each other in our sky, M12 has lost a significant portion of its lower-mass stars due to repeated passages through the Milky Way's dense galactic disk.   2. M107 (Globular Cluster in Ophiuchus) - Binoculars: A challenging target for binoculars; requires dark skies and averted vision to spot as a minute, faint smudge. - Telescope: Small-to-medium telescopes reveal a delicate, somewhat un-concentrated patch of light with a loose core. - M107 contains noticeable dark dust lanes or obscuring regions, which is relatively rare for a globular cluster, giving it a unique visual texture in medium-to-large scopes.   3. M9 (Globular Cluster in Ophiuchus) - Binoculars: Similar in scale to M107, though slightly brighter and easier to catch in 10x50s on a clear night. - Telescope: Small scopes show a bright, unresolved central nucleus surrounded by a faint, grainy halo. - M9 is located remarkably close to the Galactic Centre—only about 5,500 light-years away from it. It lies near dark nebulae like Barnard 64, making the surrounding starfield visually compelling.   4. M19 & M62 (Globular Clusters in Ophiuchus) - Binoculars: Separated by about 4 degrees, both fit easily into a standard binocular field of view south of M10/M12. They look like round, soft patches brightening toward their centers, with M19 appearing noticeably brighter. - Telescope: Smaller telescopes show compact, fuzzy disks. Moderate magnification begins resolving outer stars on both. - M19 is famous for being one of the most distinctly oblate (egg-shaped) globular clusters known, likely due to tidal forces from its proximity to the galactic core. - M62 has an asymmetric core, heavily deformed by galactic tidal forces, and hosts a rich population of millisecond pulsars.   5. M6 (The Butterfly Cluster) & M7 (Ptolemy's Cluster) Scorpius - Naked Eye: Both are bright and obvious to the naked eye under dark skies near the "stinger" of Scorpius. - Binoculars: Binoculars provide the absolute best view. Both clusters fit together in a wide 10x50 field. M7 is larger and brighter; M6 displays a striking butterfly-like star arrangement. - M7 is one of the oldest recorded deep-sky objects, noted by Ptolemy in 130 AD. - The orange giant star BM Scorpii, which sits on the wing of the "Butterfly" in M6 and adds a nice pop of stellar color contrast.   6. M8 (The Lagoon Nebula) Sagittarius - Naked Eye: Appears as a distinct, hazy patch in the Milky Way band above Scorpius. - Binoculars: Shows as a huge, glowing oval patch—larger than the full Moon—with several bright stars embedded within it. - Telescope / Filters: A UHC or O-III filter enhances the dark dust lane ("the lagoon") bisecting the bright nebulosity. - M8 is an active star-forming region containing Bok globules (collapsing clouds of protostellar gas) and the famous "Hourglass Nebula" region at its core.   7. M20 (The Trifid Nebula) Sagittarius - Binoculars: Located just 1.4 degrees northwest of M8. Appears as a faint, ghostly glow surrounding a central triple/multiple star system. - Telescope: Medium scopes under dark skies reveal the dark dust lanes splitting the bright emission portion into three distinct lobes. - M20 is a rare "triple threat" nebula containing an emission nebula (red in photos), a reflection nebula (blue in photos), and a dark dust lane network (Barnard 85) that gives it its name.   8. M21 (Open Cluster) Sagittarius - Binoculars: Situated right next to M20. Appears as a small, compact, bright knot of stars. - Telescope: Low-power views easily resolve 20–30 stars packed tightly together. - The "Trifid Trio": In wide-field eyepieces or binoculars, you can view M8, M20, and M21 all in a single field of view, offering one of the most spectacular Milky Way vistas available to visual observers.   9. M23 (Open Cluster) Sagittarius - Telescope: Low magnification is key. Small telescopes easily resolve over 80–100 stars spread across a wide field in subtle arc-like patterns. - M23 sits against a rich background Milky Way star field, making low-power wide-field views ideal. It is an excellent target for beginners practicing star-hopping in northern late-summer skies.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

Here's a Thought… #2719 with Brooks Jensen Blade Runner and Puccini's Butterfly Do you ever go back and revise a previously finished image or project? I don't. Maybe I should. Sometimes, great artists do. For example, there are five different versions of Blade Runner, one of my favorite movies. Puccini made several substantial revisions of his opera, Madame Butterfly. Ansel Adams made a dozen or so different versions of Monolith, Face of Halfdome. If such great artists believe they can improve their previous work, why would we think we can't?

The Féile and the FleadhFollowing on from Tradfest - well done Dónal and everyone  involved- Féile and  the Fleadh were mighty. Sixteen days of Féile An Phobail, seperate but running parallel with a week of the first Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann to be held in Belfast. An estimated one million plus Fleadh hoppers  meandered their way through Belfast soaking up the music, the craic and the joyful atmosphere as musicians and dancers playing their hearts out on streets and in pubs and music venues. Well done to all involved in organising this marvellous event. From Comhaltas first of all and all the musicans and dancers to Belfast City Council to the Economy Minister Dr Caoimhe Archibald who gave £1 million in funding in support of the Fleadh, to all of the business owners who opened their doors and provided the services that the crowds needed and enjoyed. Well done also to the media. The local broadcast radio and television made a special effort, as did TG4. Together they broadcast hours of happy smiling people appreciating the Fleadh, listening to the music and watching the dancers. And not forgetting Niall and Bronagh McClean,and Ards Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann (CCE), the host branch for the Fleadh. This fleadh was six years in the making but it paid off – big time. Not least in its social and societal benefits. I spent some time each day at the competitions in the Waterfront Hall. The standard of the music was amazing. Over 5,000 musicians from over 20 countries participated. That included a number of bands from the Unionist and Loyalist tradition. Fair play to them. They were warmly welcomed by enthusiastic crowds.The Little Lost Bird and the Blue ButterflyAmong the art exhibitions was one by John B Vallely. JB is a renowned artist from Armagh City and a traditional musician and s great champion of the Uilleann pipes. He has been painting for over 70 years and his exhibition for Féile focussed on the loss of innocence; on the children killed at Wounded Knee by the US army in 1890 and the current Israeli genocide in Gaza in which tens of thousands of Palestinian children have been murdered. Two images stand out in his remarkable exhibition. One is of a blue bird dedicated to Zintkála Nuni – the Little Lost Bird. It is symbolic of a baby girl who was found strapped to her murdered mother's back four days after the massacre at Wounded Knee. She had survived four days in the snow. Her name was not known so she was named Zintkála Nuni – the Little Lost Bird.Wildfires and Climate ChangeIt has been a summer thus far that tens of thousands of people in Europe and North America will remember for a long time to come. Climate change has exploded in a series of enormous and dangerous wildfires that have left devastation in their wake. Day after day the media is full of images of forests and farm land destroyed, homes in ruins and families living in makeshift shelters. From Spain to Greece and across Canada and the USA the land burns as a result of prolonged heatwaves and droughts.Of course, there are still those who boohoo even the notion of climate change. But the evidence today is overwhelming and it's not new. As far back as the 1970s I recall warnings about the impact of pollution on the environment. In 1988 the United Nations established two UN agencies focussed on climate change - the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) along with the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). 

Charisma is not just something you either have or do not have. It is a skill buyers can feel before the pitch even starts.In this episode, John sits down with Olivia Fox Cabane, bestselling author of The Charisma Myth, to talk about the science of charisma, presence, body language, curiosity, manipulation, and why real connection still matters in sales.If you are in sales, leadership, or any role where trust matters, this conversation gives you a practical way to think about how you show up in front of buyers.

In Episode 383 of The Real Jason Duncan Podcast, you either have it or you don't. That's what the world believes about charisma. And the woman who literally wrote the book on it — she believed that too. Then the science came back and killed the myth entirely. Olivia Fox Cabane is the author of The Charisma Myth, translated into 36 languages and one of the top five books Jason recommends to everyone. She has taught the science of charisma at Harvard, MIT, and the United Nations, coached the leadership of Apple, Google, and TikTok, and built her entire career on a single truth: the thing everyone calls a gift is actually a skill. She joins Jason today to expose the lie she once believed herself — that charisma is innate, magical, and either yours at birth or not yours at all. Today, Olivia sits down with Jason to dismantle one of the most comfortable lies a person can believe. Because if charisma is a birthright, your awkwardness isn't failure. It's just the verdict about how you were made. Nothing to fix. Nothing to work on. You're simply not one of those people. Except the verdict was fake. In this episode, Jason and Olivia cover: Why charisma was a taboo research subject for 50 years — and what changed in 1989 The two turning points in the science of charisma — and what the 2011 study proved that changed everything The three components of charisma — presence, power, and warmth — and why introverts can be more charismatic than extroverts in certain contexts How Steve Jobs learned charisma step by step in public — and what you can see if you watch him from 1983 to 2011 Why the most charismatic people learned it so early it looks like they were born with it The guardrails of intent and impact — and why charisma is a tool like a knife in the hands of a surgeon The real downsides of charisma that nobody talks about — and why Olivia keeps it turned off most of the time What happens to leadership, medicine, parenting, and sales when charisma is added — and why it's a force multiplier in every area of life What online charisma looks like and why it's different — audio compression, camera placement, and why gesturing matters even when it can't be seen What Olivia now knows that she wishes someone had told her 20 years ago — and why nobody did The one thing Olivia wants every person still inside this lie to hear before the episode ends The lie costs everyone who never heard their voice. Every quiet person with a better idea who stayed quiet. Every founder who handed the pitch to the natural in the room. This episode is the beginning of getting that credit back.

This week on Hope Prose, Tara goes back to the beginning of her own writing journey by speaking with the person who helped ignite her first spark in writing, back when she was a young mother who struggled with post-partum anxiety and an all-encompassing amount of imposter syndrome. Back when she dreamed up picture books at three in the morning with a baby asleep on her chest, and decided to write to one of her favourite picture book authors on a whim. Kathy Stinson was that author and is Tara's guest again after twelve years. Kathy writes timeless picture books that have been published internationally, including the classic Red Is Best,  the award-winning The Man with the Violin, and the Governor General shortlisted The Rock and the Butterfly. She is also a published novelist, short story writer, poet, wife, mother, grandmother, and current president of CANSCAIP (the Canadian Society of Children's Authors, Illustrators, and Performers). Listen in as they chat about Kathy's start over forty years ago, how she has maintained this career through avoiding trends, and instead leaning into the creative process and following her own curiosity and interests. They also chat about her newest picture book Boogie & Tee and Twinkle & Hue, and how stories can impact us across the lifespan, even a picture book when we are sixty. The Hope Prose Podcast's InstagramAlex's Instagram Tara's Instagram

While honeybees get most of the buzz, most bees don't produce honey, and most don't even live in colonies. Instead, they're solitary bees who build individual nests. A study details an astonishing finding of several million solitary bees in a cemetery in Ithaca, New York. And monarch butterflies can travel thousands of miles each year between Mexico and North America in an epic relay race of multiple generations. Thanks to new technology, our phones and other Bluetooth devices can now tell us what paths these brave little insects take on this journey. Also, lush peonies, delicate hydrangeas, and vibrant roses burst into bloom in early summer, filling gardens and parks with color and fragrance. But flowers are more than their beauty. They're some of the oldest beings on Earth, and they played a large role in shaping the natural world as we know it. Author and biologist David George Haskell joins us to discuss his 2026 book, How Flowers Made Our World: The Story of Nature's Revolutionaries. — Find photos, transcripts, links to more information about these stories, and much more at the Living on Earth website, loe dot org!

Red, White & Blues FC | Butterfly Tattoos, a Mid-Episode Signing, and City CirclingChalobah's gone, City want three of ours, Chelsea completed a transfer while we were literally recording, and we made a tattoo pact on air. Normal Thursday.We open the only correct way — laughing at Arsenal, who apparently believed they had a shot at Vinícius Júnior right up until he pointed out he isn't tired of winning Champions Leagues yet. From there it's a rumor-mill episode, because there's exactly one confirmed piece of Chelsea business this week and about fifteen things that might be. Jason delivers a full monologue on why transfer season is the footballing equivalent of being cornered by someone describing their dream. And then, halfway through the Enzo conversation, Fabrizio broke a deal live and we had a new signing before the episode ended.Farewell, Trevoh ChalobahThe one concrete thing: Chalobah is officially a Como player, €30m plus €6m in add-ons. He'd been at the club roughly twenty years and BlueCo never knew what to do with him — treated like an afterthought, shipped out on loan, brought back, never quite trusted. Neither of us pretends he was world class, but that was always fine. He was an excellent role player who could cover injuries, give you cup minutes, and actually loved Chelsea, and you need those in a squad. He was better than Disasi, better than Badiashile, and frequently better than Fofana. Thanks, Trev. Enjoy Italy. BlueCo got their £30m of pure profit.The Rumor Mill: Osimhen, Diogo Costa, and Too Many DefendersTottenham have made an offer for Victor Osimhen, so naturally Chelsea might go back in for Osimhen — because they have a toy and now we want the toy. That's three summers running. It fell apart on wages last time, he's two years older, and nothing about the math has changed. More interesting: Portuguese reports have Chelsea in talks for Diogo Costa and ready to match his €60m release clause, which is the one goalkeeper move we're both fully on board with, even if he'd be inheriting the same shambolic back line. On which — do we need more defenders? Yes, but we still have Disasi, Badiashile, Tosin, Mamadou Sarr, and Aarón Anselmino sitting there, and only the last two have youth as an excuse. Badiashile's linked to Napoli, Tosin reportedly has “lots of interest” per Fabrizio (please, take him), and Crystal Palace have submitted a loan with an obligation to buy for Disasi — take it, take five pounds, just get out of the Disasi business. Move those three and you're left with Fofana, Lacroix, Colwill, Anselmino and Hato covering in, which is enough. Sell this summer, clear the deadwood, buy quality next year once we're back in the Champions League.The Butterfly Tattoo PactThen the bad news: Chelsea are reportedly leaning toward a transfer or loan for Mudryk to Strasbourg. We said on Monday we'd riot, and we meant it — this administration was already dead to Jason, and he's not sure what's past dead. Daniel's position is that if Mudryk leaves, the title dream is gone, Champions League is gone, we're in the Conference League, we might not qualify for Europe at all. His actual vision for the season: Chelsea win the league by three points because Mudryk comes off the bench to score a 90th-minute winner against Arsenal in a 2-1. And so the pact, arrived at independently by both of us, which is what almost thirty years of friendship does to two people: if Mudryk stays and Chelsea win the league, we both get the exact butterfly tattoo. One cheek each. Possibly a wing apiece so we can moon people in formation. The one loan destination we'd actually enjoy is Coventry, purely to watch Frank Lampard coach up Mudryk — and it's genuinely nice to see Lamps is a good manager after all, just one who was handed two impossible situations at Chelsea.City Want Three of Ours, and Has Enzo Peaked?Manchester City have been linked with three Chelsea players in one day: Malo Gusto at £75m, Pedro Neto around £70m, and now Enzo Fernández, with Rodri reportedly off to Barcelona and Maresca wanting Enzo as the replacement. The Gusto number is Chelsea pricing a player so he doesn't sell — City said interested, but absolutely not at 75, which is what anyone with a footballing brain would say. Neto's number, by contrast, is priced to be paid, and the official line that he's “a very important part of the squad but the price would have to be right” translates cleanly as: we'll sell him tomorrow to a big enough sucker. Neither of us will miss Neto, a player who does almost nothing with an enormous amount of talent and whose main skill is spamming crosses without knowing where they're going. The Enzo conversation is the meatiest thing in the episode. Has he peaked? Jason thinks roughly yes — 20 goal contributions a year is his ceiling, and last season's 10 goals and 4 assists are attacking-midfielder numbers, not the Fàbregas-style controller you'd want beside Caicedo. That's exactly why the pivot fails: Caicedo drops to a fifth defender, Enzo pushes forward, and Chelsea simply cede the middle of the pitch, which is what Maresca did to us all season. Lavia is the right profile, if Lavia could ever string together ninety minutes, which in three years he hasn't. We both like Enzo, both think he plays hard for the badge — and both suspect he's a mercenary who'd play just as hard for City's badge the moment they pay him.And Then We Signed Someone Mid-EpisodePep Chavarría to Chelsea, broken by Fabrizio while we were recording: €19m plus €2m in add-ons, flying for a medical, signatures the same night. A 28-year-old left back from Rayo Vallecano who has never been capped by Spain. Daniel's verdict is blunt — this is not a Xabi Alonso signing, this is 100% a BlueCo signing, and the idea that every arrival this window is an Alonso pick is a narrative the club is happy to let run. In fairness, Chelsea genuinely don't have a left back since Cucurella left; Hato can do it but is better at left center back, and Palestra can technically cover. The question is whether we've just bought a starter or a very expensive backup. Elsewhere in the Juventus match: Hato started at left back, Palestra and Quenda linked up well on the right and Quenda had a strong first half, Fofana has publicly announced he wants to prove he can be the player we thought he was before the injuries — which mostly tells you he knows what the rest of us know. The squad is bloated, more players keep arriving, and the thing Chelsea are worst at is the thing they most urgently need to do. As Jason puts it: BlueCo aren't bad at selling players, they're bad at buying them, and then they have to sell the bad players they bought, and nobody wants them because they're bad.Programming NoteThe live Thursday show didn't happen this week and probably won't next week either — most likely we kick it off properly when the season starts.

What if the season you're struggling to get through is actually the one God is using to transform you? In this episode of Let It B, I sit down with nonprofit founder LaShonda J., founder of The Royal Butterfly, for a powerful conversation about healing, transformation, and trusting God through life's most difficult seasons. Together, we explore the beautiful parallel between the life cycle of a butterfly and our own faith journey. Just as a butterfly must go through the hidden, uncomfortable process of the cocoon before it can fly, God often does His greatest work in the quiet seasons of our lives when we can't yet see what He's preparing us for. LaShonda shares her story of losing both of her parents at a young age, walking through grief, battling feelings of not belonging, and navigating seasons of deep pain. Through it all, we see how God faithfully redeemed her story and used what once hurt her to become a source of hope for others. We also discuss how Romans 8:28 comes to life in real time that God truly works all things together for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. What once felt like brokenness has now become the foundation for a ministry that serves children and families experiencing hardship. In this episode, we talk about: Healing from childhood wounds Trusting God during seasons of transition The beauty of the "cocoon" season Finding purpose in your pain Overcoming feelings of rejection and not belonging God's faithfulness through grief and loss The mission behind The Royal Butterfly and how it's bringing hope to children and families Whether you're walking through a difficult season, waiting on God, or wondering if your story still has purpose, this conversation is a reminder that God never wastes our pain. Your current season may not be the end of your story it may be the very place where God is preparing you for what's next.

Have you ever lost sight of who you are while building a life for everyone else? So many women spend years putting their own dreams on hold, believing there'll be time "one day". But what if it's never too late to rediscover yourself, reconnect with your creativity and have the courage to build a life that truly reflects who you are? In this episode of It's a Mindset, I'm joined by renowned artist and fashion designer Anastasia Cairns, founder of a.nty story. Born in Indonesia and trained in fashion design in both Milan and Australia, Anastasia has created a beautiful slow fashion label that combines wearable art with a powerful mission: to empower women to embrace their individuality, strength and inner goddess.

It has been incredibly rewarding to watch her rediscover herself and transform a dream into reality through her stunning, vibrant designs. This conversation is deeply personal as we reflect on the challenges she's overcome, the lessons she's learned and the woman she's become. Together, we explore what it means to lose yourself in a relationship, rebuild with courage, reconnect with your dreams and redefine success on your own terms. This is a heartfelt conversation about resilience, creativity and remembering that it's never too late to create a life that feels authentically yours. Key Episode Takeaways: How wearable art can empower women to express their individuality, strength and inner goddess. Why losing yourself in a relationship doesn't have to define the rest of your life — and how it's possible to rebuild with courage. How reconnecting with your creativity can help you rediscover who you truly are. Why true success isn't measured by achievements, but by finding inner peace and having the courage to follow your dreams. About the Guest: Anastasia Cairns is an Indonesian-born artist and fashion designer whose work celebrates the beauty, strength and individuality of women.

Three years after his first appearance, Butterfly Network CEO Joe DeVivo returns to catch Harry up on the roadmap. Butterfly's ultrasound-on-a-chip has evolved from a single handheld device into a foundational semiconductor platform that third parties can build on. The most dramatic example: Midjourney's full-body scanner, which rings 40 Butterfly chips around the body for whole-body tomographic imaging. Joe and Harry dig into what's real today versus what's coming, the physics of ultrasound, the path from demo to FDA clearance, and the business logic of "multiple shots on goal."   In this episode:   The chip as a platform: opening Butterfly's technology to third-party developers (the "Nvidia moment").   Midjourney's full-body scanner: tomography, 400 teraflops of data, and a roadmap toward a one-minute scan with the Apollo chip.   Real-world impact: 1,500 midwives trained in Kenya and South Africa, plus a new FDA-cleared gestational-age AI tool.   Partners beyond Midjourney: vascular robotics, fatty liver diagnosis, and brain-computer interfaces (including "silent speech").   Physics Q&A: why 360-degree imaging solves ultrasound's problems with air and bone.   The hospital shift: capturing "ghost" scans, Compass AI, and at-risk skilled-nursing deployments.   The 10-year vision: imaging that comes to the patient instead of the patient going to imaging.   Chapters:   (00:01) A roadmap from three years ago (00:31) Midjourney unveils a full-body scanner (01:31) Joe DeVivo returns (02:59) What shipped: the chip becomes foundational (04:52) Opening the platform to third parties (06:34) Kenya and South Africa: midwives and the FDA-cleared gestational-age app (11:11) FDA rigor and validating AI (14:52) Butterfly Garden, Butterfly Embedded, and the nine partners (16:53) Brain-computer interfaces and silent speech (22:00) The Midjourney deal: origin and reaction (24:03) Tomography explained (28:12) What 40 chips can see and the data challenge (29:33) The roadmap to a one-minute scan; the Apollo chip (32:43) AI looking for a physical carrier (34:31) Prototype to product: milestones to clearance (38:28) Wellness first, then regulatory clearances (39:03) The physics of air and bone (41:45) The investment thesis: multiple shots on goal (46:26) The business today: Compass AI and health-system deployments (49:54) Heart-failure monitoring and at-risk skilled nursing (53:49) The 10-year view: imaging comes to the patient (57:18) Why early detection matters (59:50) Closing   About the guest: Joe DeVivo is CEO of Butterfly Network and has spent 35 years in medical devices.   Also mentioned: Harry's book, The Invisible Interface: How AI Turns Intentions into Actions and Who Wins (foreword by Don Norman), available in print and ebook.

Shannon breaks down the reality of the Tyler Perry machine (filming a whole feature in six days and shooting 100 pages a day), teases what fans can expect from a just-wrapped Diara From Detroit Season 2, revisits the "Mallory effect" that took over the internet, and explains how being a five-sport high school athlete turned social worker set him up to build slashes instead of waiting for the phone to ring.  He walks the crew through his character-prep process (music as his Bucky code word, custom playlists for every era), gets into a spirited VA versus New York hip hop debate, drops his top five albums (Reasonable Doubt, Miseducation, To Pimp a Butterfly, plus a VA shout to Trey Songz's Trey Day), and previews his self-produced feature A Story About You, which just premiered at Slamdance and is headed to the American Black Film Festival next. Press play for one of the most intentional young multi-hyphenates in the culture, telling his story from every side of the camera.

What if there were a great ape species that could live over 1,000 years? That's basically Heliconius in the butterfly world. The insects live around 25 times longer than their butterfly cousins, and scientists think they have one clue as to why: pollen. But as Katie Wu, a science writer at The Atlantic, explains, that's not the whole story. She and host Nate Rott also talk about how bats sip from the fountain of youth – and what it all may mean for humans.Read Katie's full story here.If you liked this episode, check out our episode on a pill that could extend dogs' lives…and maybe yours someday. Interested in more science about aging?
