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of infection), and also provides support for a prediction made by Bret and his co-author Debbie Ciszek in the unpublished, longer version of their reserve capacity paper from 2002.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.

Episode 1608: Here We go Again

Matt 14, 22-33

In this episode, Lisa opens with the reminder that real, sustainable change begins not in urgency, panic, or the frantic rush to “fix” your body, but in the quiet, embodied willingness to be exactly where you are. She invites listeners to step out of the urgency of weight‑loss pressure and into the felt safety that makes transformation possible—safety in your breath, in your body, and in the present moment. Lisa unpacks why panic tightens the system, why urgency blocks clarity, and why the path forward only reveals itself when you stop fighting the moment you're in. Drawing on lived experience, nervous‑system science, and a three‑level coaching framework, she guides listeners toward releasing the fear‑driven chase for change so one can finally see the exit, the path, and the next right step from a grounded, regulated place. Topics Include:Releasing PanicEmotional SafetyFramework for SuccessCommunity[1:55] Lisa shifts the conversation from theoretical groundwork to the "core conversation" of intentional weight loss, specifically focusing on the physiological components of radical acceptance and non-attachment. Lisa emphasizes moving beyond intellectual understanding. The goal is to "embody it until you habituate to it." Lisa explains that safety and acceptance must be felt physiologically to be effective.[3:50] Lisa uses the Harry Potter scene involving Devil's Snare to illustrate the body's response to discomfort.Panic: Struggling and fighting (like Ron) causes the plant to constrict tighter, meeting fear with fear causes physiological contraction and worsens symptoms.Relaxation: Relaxing and "trying on the energy of relaxation" (like Hermione and Harry) causes the plant to release, helping the body to feel safe.[8:35] Lisa applies this to her experience with IBS and chronic pain. Realizing that panic was fueling her physical contraction, she utilized the mantra: "You are uncomfortable, you are not unsafe." The urgency to lose weight is compared to being trapped in a burning room. Panicking and screaming "I have to get out" only adds fuel to the fire and blocks the exit. [25:52] Lisa outlines the three levels required for success:Emotional Sobriety: Learning to feel feelings without using food as a drug.Mind-Body Connection: Connecting with food and the body intuitively.Intentional Weight Loss: This step should only be pursued after the groundwork of levels 1 and 2 is complete. Attempting Level 3 prematurely leads to the cycle of failure.[37:25] For those who react to their reflection as if they are a "predator," Lisa recommends her Mirror Work Challenge to build the capacity to bear witness to one's own body. Lisa addresses facing fears (like wearing a swimsuit in public), one should not throw themselves into the deep end and dissociate. Instead, she urges taking fetus steps to stay in a learning zone rather than a danger zone. She encourages to imagine how one would move, breathe, and exist if they already felt safe, and to start embodying those physical behaviors now. [1:06:06] Lisa argues that individual work is not enough because humans have an "animal brain in a social context."- Quoting "grief cannot be metabolized in isolation," she emphasizes that healing requires safe relationships and the brain needs to learn there are people who can see, love, and accept you without judgment.*The views of podcast guests do not necessarily reflect the views and beliefs of Lisa Schlosberg or Out of the Cave, LLC.LISA IS NOW ACCEPTING: One-on-One Clients!⁠Purchase the OOTC book of 50 Journal Prompts⁠⁠Leave Questions and Feedback for Lisa via OOTC Pod Feedback Form ⁠Email Lisa: ⁠lisa@lisaschlosberg.com⁠⁠Out of the Cave Merch⁠ - For 10% off use code SCHLOS10Lisa's Socials: Instagram⁠ ⁠Facebook⁠ ⁠YouTube⁠

It's not too often that a Pick of the Week turns into a Monday episode but given the similarities to Grace Draven and J.D. Evans, we should've known better.Traitor Son is a bit of a sleeper hit, equal parts intricate world-building and romance. The heroine is not your typical romantasy lead. She's a bit mousy, submissive, and sometimes innocent to an eyeroll level, but she undergoes massive character growth throughout the novel and you can see her potential in future books.We won't say too much about Remin, but if sheer brute strength is your thing you won't be disappointed, although we were both rooting for Miche the entire time.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/218333744-traitor-son?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=cYvC4cviR5&rank=1Similar BooksThe Girl of Fire and Thorns by Rae Carsonhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10429092-the-girl-of-fire-and-thorns?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=w6brDLeNax&rank=1The Emperor's Edge by Lindsay Burokerhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10031259-the-emperor-s-edge?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=6mmf4MaaUj&rank=1Reign and Ruin by J.D.

Health Hats walks & floats through ancient Maya caves in Belize with forearm crutches, teamwork, trust, and shared decision-making every step of the way. Watch this episode on YouTube. Audio is published, but not the same Podcast episode on YouTube Summary What does it take to go cave tubing in Belize when you use forearm crutches and have no electric wheelchair? For Danny van Leeuwen, it takes the 3 T’s: Time (a half-mile walk), Trust (in guides and companions), and Talk (real-time decisions about stairs vs. river crossings). HHP245 is a first-person GoPro video of Danny floating through the sacred Caves Branch River — ancient Maya ceremonial grounds — with his wife and friend Linda. It’s part adventure, part health advocacy, and part proof that with the right team, you can push your capabilities further than you thought. Click here to view the printable newsletter with images.

In Belize, floating in a tube through caves and snorkeling stretched me. How can tubing stretch anything? It's passive floating. The event included a mile-long walk to the cave entrance – relatively flat with some steps and wading across the river, a mere six-inches deep. No electric wheelchair, just my forearm crutches. Our guide and my compatriots shared in the decision-making and assisted me. This video episode was taken with a GoPro camera hanging around my neck. Watch the video. Reading will not give you the flavor. Narrative Let me tell you a little bit about where we are what you’ll see. Excuse me, as I will be certainly butchering some of the names of stuff. So where we are is Nohoch Che’en Caves, Branch Archeological Reserve, also called the Caves Branch River. It’s in the Cayo District, and districts are like provinces or states. It’s by far the most famous cave tubing destination in Belize and one of the most unique in the world. So this was sacred to the ancient Maya. They were considered portal to Xibalba, the Maya underworld. This wasn’t just mythology. The Maya actively used these caves for religious rituals and ceremonies, particularly during times of drought when they needed to communicate with the rain God, chaac. I don’t know. Archeologists have found ceramic offerings, jade artifacts and human remains inside; evidence of sacrificial rights dating back over 2000 years. The caves were largely forgotten after the Maya civilization declined and weren’t widely known to the outside world until the 1980s and nineties when the Belizean guides and explorers began documenting them and it became a active tourist destination in the early two thousands. So the Caves Branch River flows through a network of limestone caves carved out over millions of years. The system I floated on. Is part of a much larger Karst landscape riddled with interconnected caves. Some of them still unexplored. Pretty amazing, huh? Reflection That was it. Fifteen minutes of about an hour total time and 30 minutes of recording. I hope it gives you a flavor of what we did. It was awesome. I will be producing a couple more videos from Belize over the next few months. The next video will be of the Mayan ruins, then making tortillas and tamales, and then, we'll see.

John and Jim welcome back special guest Felicity Kusinitz to discuss the Colin Baker era finale - a story that generates surprising ratings diversity and sparks debate about Eric Saward's best (or most problematic) work. Production Background: Director Graham Harper returns after "Caves of Androzani" to helm this two-part adventure, the last to be shot using film for location work. John shares fascinating details about Eric Saward writing the script while vacationing in Rhodes, drawing inspiration from Evelyn Waugh's satirical novel The Loved One, and Greek locations providing character names. The story features newly constructed Daleks for the first time since "Planet of the Daleks," plus some surprising casting stories - including Sir Laurence Olivier being approached to play... the mutant. Best and Worst Guest Stars: Jim declares this story contains both the best and worst guest stars ever - a proclamation that generates immediate discussion. Eleanor Bron's appearance delights Jim (who knew her from "Help!" and "Bedazzled"), while the DJ character sparks the episode's most heated debate. The hosts and Felicity find themselves split on whether this comedic character works or derails the story's tone. The Duo Dynamic: The hosts examine Eric Saward's interesting structural choice of populating the story with paired characters - from Orsini and Bostock (the assassin and his squire) to Jobel and Tasambeker, Kara and Vogel, and more. Discussion explores whether this represents a Robert Holmes homage and how these relationships drive the narrative. Davros as Emperor Palpatine: Jim presents his case for Davros completing his transformation into Emperor Palpatine, complete with blue lightning and manipulation tactics. The hosts debate the character's evolution, Terry Molloy's performance, and the story's handling of Davros versus the "real" Daleks. The Mortuary Planet Concept: Jim shares his fascination with funeral home settings in science fiction, praising the story's dark humor and satire. Discussion covers the story's Soylent Green elements, the disturbing glass Daleks, and whether the various subplots serve or detract from the core narrative. Perry's Accent Meta-Moment: The hosts discuss the scene where DJ asks "Is that your real accent?" - exploring what the production team knew about Nicola Bryant's secret by this point. Listener Perspectives: Jameson and Jamie Girl weigh in with contrasting views on the DJ character, Herbert from "Timelash," and the season's violence levels. Final Ratings: The three hosts land across the spectrum - demonstrating this story's divisive nature even among those who generally enjoy it.

Today we have a wide-ranging re-visit with musician-farmer, Andy Juhl. Though much of his music tilts Americana/Folk, he's also passionately into progressive rock music, and plays with a band of that character also. Raised on the farm, he's also been navigating that work in the direction of organic farming, working side-by-side with his father on 800 acres in NW Iowa. Time in the self-driving combine leaves him with more time than you might expect to write music, and he's expanding his range regularly.

Today, we'll talk about how China's ancient cave murals were cut from desert walls, scattered across the world, and painstakingly reunited through scholarship, art, and digital restoration.

There’s an argument to be made that every technology advance in communication – from cave paintings to fake AI movie trailers – is at its root an attempt to tell stories. Our first night-fires created the earliest audiences for spoken stories. In time, the development of rhyme, song, and other mnemonic devices allowed those spoken stories to be preserved for generations; pictures drawn on cave walls turned preservation into permanence, telling stories we still experience thousands of years later; writing enabled storytellers to spread tales to faraway places; the Chinese invented printing with moveable metal type around 700 AD; the Toltecs independently invented it at about the same time; 750 years later Gutenberg independently invented it again, adding a converted wine press to create the mass production of mass communication. Over time, printing presses increased the number of storytellers and the size of their audiences by many orders of magnitude, a trend which led us to great revolutions, and electric, then electronic, then digital storytelling and all our storytelling tools of today—and tomorrow’s. Today’s guest is Kevin Ashton, author of “The Story of Stories: The Million-Year History of a Uniquely Human Art.” We see how humans alone possess the desire to share our hopes and beliefs, to understand and connect with others, to process events that have come before and anticipate events that will come next. That innate urge to communicate has impacted every aspect of human history, and it is so ingrained in the fabric of our existence that language did not come to being so that we could tell stories—stories gave us language. Human storytelling has led to innovations in astronomy, entertainment, technology, and beyond, and brought about revolutions, religions, political movements, and so much more.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Episode 1706: Protest Fatigue  

Built for Breakthrough is a powerful message that explores the story of David's mighty men and the courage, loyalty, and honor that defined them. Through the Cave of Adullam and the moment they broke through enemy lines for their king, we discover that who we align with shapes us, what we respond to reveals us and how we honor sacrifice defines us. Ultimately, this message calls us to live in a way that reflects the sacrifice of Jesus, because we were built for breakthrough.

Are there parts of you that are hidden away? A secret shame, a private hurt, a lonely fear that resides in the darkness you don't talk about. Jesus knows about it and he wants to heal it. Hebrews 4:13, “Nothing in all creation is hidden from God. Everything is naked and exposed before his eyes.” […]

Episode 1606: The Jerk

What if the greatest stories on Earth aren't written in the sky but carved in stone beneath our feet? On this illuminating episode of Speaking of Travel, we shine a light on the extraordinary underground ecosystems that hold the living history of our planet.My guest is David Foster, President and CEO of the American Cave Conservation Association and steward of Hidden River Cave in Kentucky.Once considered one of the most polluted caves in the United States, Hidden River Cave is now a powerful symbol of restoration and hope. More than 40 years of scientific effort, community collaboration, and unwavering commitment transformed a damaged ecosystem into a conservation success story. Located within the watershed of Mammoth Cave International Biosphere Reserve, its recovery reminds us that protecting one place can ripple far beyond what we see.In this heartfelt conversation, David shares why the ACCA chose to go where the problem was, what it truly takes to repair decades of environmental harm, and how working in spaces shaped over millions of years changes the way we think about time, patience, and responsibility.“This is a happy cave today because people care. When you do good things for the world, karma rewards you. And we're an organization that really cares.”And maybe that's the heart of it. When we care deeply enough, even the unseen parts of our world can heal. Sometimes the greatest journeys aren't across oceans, but into the quiet places beneath our feet, reminding us that care, patience, and community can truly change the world. Because in the end, protecting what's hidden may be one of the most important journeys we ever take.

In this week's episode, Lisa reflects on her creative process — openly naming her impatience while choosing messy action over perfectionism — and shares the three question framework she uses for personal transformation. She explores why meaningful change requires a slower, more mindful pace to protect the nervous system from chronic fight-or-flight, and how balancing external guidance with personal authority creates space for intuition to emerge. Lisa then describes non-attachment as the future-oriented partner to radical acceptance, shifting from needing outcomes to simply wanting them in order to feel safe in the present. Lisa models how meeting fear with self-compassion and internal validation allows one to act bravely without clinging to results — a practice she frames as foundational for lasting change, from intentional weight loss to healing chronic pain. Topics Include:Brave BecomingMessy CourageInner SafetyLoving Non-Attachment[1:37] Lisa begins by acknowledging her own frustration in not reaching her intended topics yet, modeling how to tolerate the discomfort of a non-linear process. She encourages "messy action," urging action before feeling "ready," inspired by feedback that her own process has helped others let go of perfectionism.[5:34] Lisa shares her "Living As If" method for personal transformation. This framework helps create a blueprint for becoming one's "higher self" by focusing on how one wants to be in relation to their life and pain, rather than immediate comfort. By asking these three questions:"Who is the person that I want to be?""What would she do?""What does that look like for me right now?[10:48] Lisa stresses that time is a critical component of change, highlighting the difference between simply getting a task done and doing it without overwhelming one's nervous system. She contrasts her past "fight or flight" lifestyle of rushing with her current, more mindful pace. She explains that rushing perpetuates a physiological state of fear.[15:17] Lisa examines how seeking help is valuable, it's crucial to avoid giving away personal power to external authorities and the goal is self-reliance, not dependency. Lisa then looks at how creative solutions and intuitive guidance require a "marination stage," which is often blocked by constant distractions.[20:57] Lisa circles back to the non-attachment part of High Involvement, Low Attachment. Lisa frames it as the future-oriented version of radical acceptance; radical acceptance is for the present, while non-attachment is for a future outcome. She discusses the difference between wanting a certain outcome and needing a certain outcome and the signals of fear or safety that are sent to the brain. [53:22] Lisa closes out this episode by explaining the importance of meeting fear with love as a foundational skill for personal evolution. She explains that change is inherently uncomfortable and the key is how you treat yourself during the process. She explains that being present with fear, validating it as a normal human response, and meeting it with love and acceptance is key and the goal is to act while feeling uncomfortable, not unsafe.*The views of podcast guests do not necessarily reflect the views and beliefs of Lisa Schlosberg or Out of the Cave, LLC.LISA IS NOW ACCEPTING: One-on-One Clients!⁠Purchase the OOTC book of 50 Journal Prompts⁠⁠Leave Questions and Feedback for Lisa via OOTC Pod Feedback Form ⁠Email Lisa: ⁠lisa@lisaschlosberg.com⁠⁠Out of the Cave Merch⁠ - For 10% off use code SCHLOS10Lisa's Socials: Instagram⁠ ⁠Facebook⁠ ⁠YouTube⁠

Deep in the heart of Mount Elgon in Kenya lies Kitum Cave, a natural wonder carved out of volcanic rock that has become infamous not for its beauty, but for the terrifying biological mystery lurking within its dark recesses—the Marburg virus. In this video, we're diving headfirst into the intersection of geology, ecology, and virology to unravel why this cave has earned a reputation as one of the deadliest places on Earth. Kitum Cave is home to colonies of Egyptian fruit bats, which scientists have long identified as the natural reservoir of filoviruses like Marburg, and it's here that humans have had fateful encounters leading to some of the most horrifying outbreaks of viral hemorrhagic fever known to science. Marburg virus, closely related to Ebola, is a filovirus capable of causing catastrophic systemic infection—destroying vascular integrity, shutting down the immune system, and essentially liquefying organs as cytokine storms ravage the body. We'll be breaking down the biology of how the virus hijacks host cells using its glycoproteins, replicates rapidly within monocytes and macrophages, and creates a cascade of tissue necrosis, coagulopathy, and multi-organ failure. Beyond the cellular level, we'll also examine the evolutionary advantage bats hold as viral carriers, from their high metabolic rates and unique immune adaptations to their ecological role as disease reservoirs that bridge the gap between wildlife and human infection. Kitum Cave itself plays a critical role, acting as both a mineral salt lick for elephants and antelope and a densely populated roost for bats—making it a hotspot for cross-species viral spillover events. In this breakdown, we'll revisit historical cases such as the 1980 and 1987 Marburg outbreaks linked to visitors of the cave, analyze how modern epidemiology tracks the spread of the virus, and look into why the Marburg pathogen remains a Level 4 biosafety threat with no approved vaccine or specific antiviral treatment. Instead, containment relies on quarantine, barrier nursing, and supportive care, a grim reminder of just how vulnerable humans still are to zoonotic spillovers from caves like Kitum. As we peel back the layers of geology, ecology, and virology, you'll see how this single cave represents a perfect storm for disease emergence—a literal natural laboratory where viruses incubate in the shadows, waiting for the next unlucky host to step inside. So if you've ever wondered why Kitum Cave became the epicenter of viral legend and why Marburg continues to terrify virologists to this day, buckle in—because this is the biology of one of the most dangerous viral hideouts on Earth.

February 23-March 1I remember the first time I visited the massive, ancient building erected by Herod the Great in Hebron. He had it built over the Cave of Machpelah more than 2,000 years ago to mark and protect the sacred resting place of Abraham, Sarah, Isaac, Rebekah, Jacob and Leah. I walked into the building as a ten-year-old with a covering over my head and my parents, brothers and a number of friends at my side. There was one place where you could go to your knees and carefully look through a brass grate and see into the cave below. A small lamp was burning there. A feeling came over me at that moment, not only that this was a sacred place, but that I was connected to Abraham. He was my direct-line grandfather. I have never forgotten that moment.
