B and Tracy did something fun for Cocktailers - coming soon! We love Canadians. Justice for the Bathroom Chronicles! We had tea about Jax and his publicist's affair going all the way back to 2024, plus some updates by Cocktailers and friends who have eyewitness reports of the Mexico sightings. Is Brittany trying to get her Ariana/Ciara moment out of this? The Golden Life is getting more episodes- which means we get to see our OG RHONY ladies in The Hamptons. And, a pod exclusive - we're hearing there's another Housewife (not from RHONY) who will be filming too! Whitney vs. Lindsay - our thoughts. Thanks to RHOA we learned some interesting facts about pelvic floors. And we still have more questions. Shamea vs. Porsha: Is there any way they can move forward? There's one thing, particularly, that we find to be especially over the line about this fight. This week's episode of Cocktails and Gossip is brought to you by our sponsor, Caraway.

I also share my framework for breaking big goals into manageable steps, staying consistent through monthly check-ins, and creating habits that actually stick by making them more enjoyable.

This week, Kate briefly debriefs her week at Cannes Lions during a record-breaking heat wave, including how she accidentally hired a private French bodyguard in an armored Maybach, sweat off her spray tan across the Côte d'Azur, and what it's like to be at Coachella for vague marketing babes without AC when your brain is so fried you give the AC repairman the wrong room number and it stays broken. Then Sami Sage (co-founder of Betches, host of the Morning Announcements) joins for a catch-up covering the lead up to Taylor and Travis's MSG wedding, Joe Alwyn and Sarah Pidgeon making out at Hampstead Heath, being hot as an internet career skill, canopy beds as class warfare, rare 90s aesthetics, whether Alex Mack was the original Inside Out, past lives, the word incontrovertible, and why Sami doesn't believe in snowboarding.

This series highlights the highs and lows of hunting public land across different regions of America — the early mornings, the pressure, the competition, and the grind that comes with earning every bird.In this episode, Jeff Stanfield and Andy Shaver are joined by Noah Caraway from Kentucky.The guys discuss the most commonly harvested duck species in Kentucky, the number of duck and goose hunters across the state, and what a typical morning looks like chasing waterfowl in the Bluegrass State.

B went to the Vulture Reality TV Masterminds Awards event and has a lot to share with us, including what Kyle's reaction was to her, who she vibed with, and who she met. The next day the Jenn Fessler/West Wilson scandal exploded. We have thoughts both on whether it happened, and how Jenn and West handled it. And on this week's episode of Summer House: What did West whisper to Amanda, and why did production choose for us not to hear it? Real Housewives of Rhode Island: The offscreen drama continues to be as good as the on-screen. We told you a few weeks ago that Rulla's husband the cheating podiatrist is suing his ex-mistress for breaking the confidentiality clause from a previous lawsuit. Well, now, the mistress is suing Brian back. We also got some BIG tea (a Cocktails and Gossip exclusive) about the mistress that truly made Amanda's jaw drop. And on the Valley, we've got nothing but love for Nia, but maybe a little concern, too, as her husband Danny is acting like a man-baby.

Episode 185 is on the scene and we ask Landen Lewis how he was able to go from the back to the front to win the last zMAX CARS Tour event at Caraway Speedway and the hard racing between him and his Truck Series teammate Conner Jones. He tells us about his busy schedule for the rest of the year, his experience street racing earlier this season at St. Petersburg & how he is preparing to go essentially full time in trucks for NIECE Motorsports. We also discuss big game hunting, his golf game and his work out regime. Chase Elliott picked up his second win of the season at Texas on Saturday. Does Hendrick and Spire have this car figured out after they had 4 cars in the top 8 on Sunday and answer the ever so asked question about putting respect on Alan Gustafson's name. We also discuss some great runs by Alex Bowman and the terrible luck that Christopher Bell is having lately.We preview this weekend's CARS Tour stop at Ace Speedway. Landen Lewis and Connor Jones sit near the top of the points but with Lee Pulliam and Corey Heim making infrequent starts this weekend, it'll surely be an exciting night at Ace. We also talk about what happened at South Boston Speedway, Bowman Gray and Newport from the weekend, get you geared up for this weekend's racing action from Watkins Glen, around the Mid-Atlantic region, this weekend's dubs and we open up a pack of the new Donruss NASCAR 2026 trading cards and more this week on DLN
Most people think their kitchen is the safest place in their home. The truth is the opposite. The cookware you use every day, the cutting boards you trust, the utensils you stir with, even the coffee maker on your counter, may be quietly leaching forever chemicals, microplastics, and heavy metals into your food and into your brain. In this episode, I sit down with Jordan Nathan, founder and CEO of Caraway, the brand redefining what nontoxic actually means in the modern home. Jordan walks me through the night he called poison control after overheating a Teflon pan, the 2-year journey to launch a cookware line free of PFAS, and why six U.S. states have now banned forever chemicals in cookware. We unpack what PFAS, PFOA, and PTFE actually are, why they accumulate in fat tissue and cross the blood brain barrier, and why scratched pans, plastic cutting boards, and black nylon utensils are some of the most dangerous things in your kitchen. Then we go deep on the science. I break down the Nature Medicine 2025 study showing microplastics in human brain tissue at higher concentrations than the liver or kidney, with the highest accumulation found in dementia brains. We cover the rise of autoimmune disease, the credit card's worth of plastic the average person consumes every week, Caraway's third party testing for over 600 PFAS chemicals, and a full kitchen audit on a $1,000 budget covering induction vs gas, dishwasher dangers, and what's coming next as Caraway expands into the broader nontoxic home. This conversation will completely change how you think about what is in your kitchen, what is in your body, and what you can actually do about it.

Matt introduces "doomscrolling," linking compulsive online consumption to worsened sleep and mental health. He tracks social media's rise (1997-2016), noting increased addiction. By 2016, 82% of 12th graders spent six hours daily online, often at sleep's expense. Matt also highlights heightened psychological distress in adolescent girls due to comparison-focused platforms.Noting that "doomscrolling" is tied to FOMO, addiction, and distress, he describes a bidirectional loop: poor sleep drives doomscrolling, intensifying depression, further degrading sleep. Challenging the blue light myth, Matt shows minimal sleep onset delay. And identifies cognitive/emotional arousal and the FOMO-rumination-procrastination cycle as true disruptors. He concludes with practical interventions: usage caps, phone-free bedrooms, and consistent cutoff times.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.Clean biological living requires precision.

For this week's Minimalism Story episode I'm joined by Dana Litz, content creator and founder of Minimal Moves, to talk about what it really looks like to pursue minimalism over time—not perfectly, but through real-life ups and downs. Dana shares her personal journey with decluttering, from her childhood home to moving out—and even moving back in—and how each season shaped her perspective on stuff, space, and what truly matters. This conversation is a great reminder that minimalism isn't a one-time project, but something that evolves with you. We also talk about the emotional side of decluttering and how to start letting go of items that feel hard to release. Dana offers practical, doable tips for detaching from possessions without guilt, along with her “Minimal Moves” approach—focusing on small, consistent actions that create meaningful change over time. If you've ever felt stuck in the cycle of decluttering or struggled to let go, this episode will meet you with both encouragement and realistic next steps.

Matt examines the ancient practice of sleeping with pets, a bond dating back 12,000 years. Once a practical norm for warmth and companionship, co-sleeping became controversial due to modern ideas of hygiene. This episode uses the latest scientific tools to examine this long-standing relationship and asks whether we've been too quick to banish pets from the bedroom.The research reveals a nuanced picture. While a pet on the bed can disrupt sleep efficiency, their presence in the room provides comfort without major disturbance. The benefits are mutual, as an owner's presence dramatically improves a dog's sleep. Matt's key takeaway: if sleep is an issue, move your pet to their own bed in the room. This preserves the psychological benefits for both human and animal while minimizing physical disruption.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.Clean biological living requires precision.

On this, our 321st Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss AI, Iran, Trump, emergencies in the state of Washington, and stories from the Covid era. Anthropic, which makes Claude, announced that they are halting the release of their latest model due to unexpected capacities it has revealed. We discuss trade-offs, exploration, and game theory as they pertain to bats and planes, cats and humans, and LLMs. Then: did Trump make a genocidal threat against Iran? And: what emergency in the state of Washington could possibly apply to college tuition, out-of-state militias, accurate representation of sex on government IDs, and responding to pandemics? Answer: all the legislature has to do to make their ideas referendum-proof is declare that they are responding to an emergency—they do not even have to say what the emergency is. Finally: our memories of the Covid Era have begun to fade and morph, but it is important that we keep them alive.*****Our sponsors:Xlear: Xylitol nasal spray that acts as prophylaxis against respiratory illnesses by reducing the stickiness of bacteria and viruses.

On this, our 319th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss space mirrors and the state of Washington state. Reflect Orbital is a young company that hopes to put tens of thousands of mirrors in orbit around the planet, and deliver “full moon to high noon” levels of light anyplace on Earth, on demand (for the right price). What could go wrong? Also: Washington state has voted in the first ever income tax (for high earners), quick on the heels of its first ever capital gains tax, while still having some of the highest estate, sales, property, and fuel taxes in the country. Meanwhile, the cost of living is skyrocketing, and the quality of services declining. Our highways are third worst in the nation; our cities are filthy and unsafe; our schools are miseducating children (at best). Is the money being used for anything useful?*****Our sponsors:Timeline: Accelerate the clearing of damaged mitochondria to improve strength and endurance: Go to http://www.timeline.com/darkhorse and use code darkhorse for 20% off your first order.SaunaSpace: deep radiant heat from red and infrared incandescence—detox and decrease pain, reverse screen fatigue and improve your mood.

This week, Kate is breaking her hiatus for a special report recorded before Thursday's news that ABC was scrapping TFP's season of The Bachelorette. Ultimately, she decided this episode was still a relevant conversation to have, given that she and her guest (Sam Dalton, LCSW @sam.the.therapistt) talked through the systems and cycles that made this week's fallout unsurprising long before the video leaked. Together, they unpack the rose colored glass ceiling of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, where women perform rebellion without ever actually leaving the structures that constrain them. They discuss how ABC and Hulu built a cross-platform content pipeline on top of a woman's unresolved trauma, why the show's premise was always rooted in Taylor's reactivity, the pattern of Dakota's strategic sabotage, what it means when healing requires the opposite of what reality TV rewards, and the uncomfortable question of why so many of us, Kate included, glossed over a 2023 aggravated assault charge that was packaged as the starting point of a redemption arc. Content note: this episode discusses domestic violence, child abuse allegations, and toxic relationship dynamics. SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS! Order Kate's NYT Bestselling book, One in a Millennial here!

Four years ago, we recorded an episode built entirely around questions from our community- real questions from you, and our unfiltered advice in response! It ended up being one of our most-loved episodes, and listening back, it still feels just as relevant today. We're bringing it back because the core of it hasn't changed: people are still figuring things out, still asking the same kinds of questions, and still looking for honest, thoughtful advice. There's something special about revisiting where we were, what we said, and seeing how it all holds up now. Whether you were there the first time or you're hearing it for the first time now, we hope you enjoy this throwback episode and maybe even find a few answers you didn't know you needed.

When "Denied" Goes Viral: AI Claim Denials, TrumpRx, and America's Healthcare Trust Crisis The Not Old Better Show, Art of Living Interview Series Thank you, I'm Paul Vogelzang. Today's episode is brought to you by Caraway. Good Looking. Clean Cooking. Have you ever stood at the pharmacy counter, card in hand, and heard one word: denied? For our listeners over 50, that moment isn't about inconvenience. It's blood pressure meds. It's insulin. It's the medication that keeps you steady, independent, and in your own life. And then comes the "solution": "Try a coupon." "Pay cash." "Use a marketplace." Behind that advice is a system that can feel like a black box—prior authorization, shifting formularies, and now, more and more, algorithms. AI can speed up decisions, but it can also shut a door without giving you a clear, human explanation. Now add the third ingredient: social media. A nonstop feed that can take real pain and turn it into a blame spiral—until people stop asking, "How do we fix this?" and start asking, "Who do we punish?" We've seen how fast outrage can spread, and how dangerous it can become when it's celebrated instead of cooled down. Today on The Not Old Better Show, we're connecting those dots—insurance hurdles, AI-driven denials, and the polarization that's eroding trust. Our guest is Dr. William Soliman, CEO of the Accreditation Council for Medical Affairs and a leading expert on pharma and health insurance. He'll explain TrumpRx—what it is, what it isn't, and why a discount price that doesn't count toward your deductible can backfire for seniors on multiple medications. We'll talk reform. We'll talk responsible tech. And we'll talk empathy—because healthcare can't run on anger. And it's never too late to insist on dignity at the doctor's office. Remember, support our sponsors: today's episode is brought to you by Caraway. Good Looking. Clean Cooking.
On today's episode, I'm joined by Rea Ann Silva, the celebrity makeup artist and founder of Beautyblender, to talk about how a problem she faced on set turned into one of the most iconic tools in beauty. Rea Ann shares her journey from growing up in the Los Angeles area in a hardworking family to building a career as a professional makeup artist, and how the shift to high-definition television forced artists to completely rethink complexion and application techniques. We dive into the origin story of the Beautyblender, how she created the first sponge to achieve seamless, airbrushed skin without heavy makeup, and how the product spread organically through the pro makeup community long before social media. She also opens up about navigating early copycats, staying relevant in a competitive industry, and what it takes to build a product with true longevity. If you're interested in entrepreneurship, innovation, and the behind-the-scenes story of a beauty product that changed the industry, this episode is packed with insights. Enjoy!

Matt reviews Danish neuroscientist Maiken Nedergaard's 2013 discovery: during sleep, glial cells shrink, allowing cerebrospinal fluid to flush brain toxins like beta-amyloid and tau protein. This "private sanitation system" is significantly more efficient with side sleeping, especially compared to front or back sleeping, suggesting an evolutionary preference.Our host reveals the broad impact that sleep position has on health, from reducing sleep apnea and acid reflux to affecting rotator cuff injuries, glaucoma, and stillbirth risk in pregnant women. Overall, he concludes that side sleeping is generally optimal, with specific considerations for heart conditions.

On this, our 316th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss health, science, and the Cartesian crisis as it relates to global events. First: a new paper finds that infection tends to lead to greater frailty in older people. This reverses the causality of Terrain Theory of Disease (frailty of the body leads to greater susceptibility of infection), and also provides support for a prediction made by Bret and his co-author Debbie Ciszek in the unpublished, longer version of their reserve capacity paper from 2002. Then: what we are seeing on our personal media feeds does not make us eye-witnesses to anything—not necessarily. Plato's Cave of Mirrors means that we are all fed different media diets, and skills such as observation, discernment, and hypothesis generation, inherently fail when nobody can establish what is actually true. Recommendation: start comparing notes with other people as to what they are seeing, rather than what they think it means.*****Our sponsors:NOBS: NOBS is doing a nationwide rollout into 917 Target stores.

Sarah's mom had to have surgery, and we find out how one of our recent episodes could've prevented this unfortunate incident. Let's just say: plank at your own risk. A man decided to do an entire marathon doing lunges instead of running like a normal person, and, spoiler alert, it didn't go well. Sarah talks about two ladies who got locked into a Scottish castle overnight. Susie has breaking serial pooper news. A woman was caught going number two on a hiking trail every morning, and you will not believe her excuse. Sarah reveals one of the worst moments of her life involved stumbling upon the remains of an outdoor defecator, and she is still traumatized. Sarah explains Gourmand Syndrome, an incredibly rare condition that creates a burning passionate and need for gourmet food, and we have follow up questions...00:00 - Sarah Reflects on Her Gay Identity and Past Relationships04:29 - Embracing Messy Personal Growth: The Butterfly Analogy09:32 - Taking Control of Finances with Rocket Money App12:03 - Sarah's Mom Wins Plank Competition, Ends Up with Hernia15:19 - Challenging Gender Norms in Traditionally Male-Dominated Spaces20:12 - Elevating Your Kitchen with Caraway's NonToxic Cookware22:58 - The Jackass Who Tried to Lunge an Entire Marathon26:04 - American Tourists Accidentally Locked Inside a Scottish Castle31:46 - Unbelievable Serial Pooper Story and Sarah's Traumatic Encounter42:46 - Experiencing Ultimate Comfort with Cozy Earth Bedding44:28 - Gastrointestinal Doctor Explains the Science Behind Farts47:45 - Personal Farting Policies and Food Sensitivity Discoveries52:26 - Rare Brain Injury Leads to Intense Obsession with Gourmet Food56:18 - Final Thoughts and How to Support Brain Candy PodcastBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Let Rocket Money help you reach your financial goals faster.

We've been absolutely hooked watching the 2026 Winter Games and after our last breakdown, it was clear you had a lot of questions about my experience and what it's really like as an athlete at the Olympics! So we went straight to Instagram, pulled your questions, and nothing was off limits. In this Olympics Q&A, we break down: • What the Olympic Village is really like • The pressure of competing on the world stage • What's changed heading into 2026 • My honest thoughts on this year's Winter Games There's so much that doesn't make the broadcast and as someone who's lived it, I'm giving you the real perspective!

On this, our 314th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss love, coffee, and AI. For Valentine's Day, Bret shares his thoughts on myths, love, and soulmates, and we discuss how relationships form—both in the abstract and in our case—and how relationships cannot be antagonistic or about short time horizons. Then: new research finds that drinking moderate amounts of coffee or tea—but not if decaffeinated—slows cognitive decline. And: is AI coming for us, and if so, how soon? How fast are LLM's evolving, whose work will they disappear, and is concern or hope the more constructive response? We can see some of how AI will change our world; what can we not yet see? Finally: could menial, repetitive work (“drudgery”) have more to recommend it than we know?*****Our sponsors:Caraway: Non-toxic, highly functional & beautiful cookware and bakeware.
