In this episode, Jeff sits down with San Francisco City Attorney, David Chiu, to discuss his first-in-the-nation lawsuit against major ultra-processed food manufacturers. Drawing parallels to Big Tobacco litigation, David explains how companies like Coca-Cola, PepsiCo, and Kraft Heinz have used addiction science and deceptive marketing – often targeting children and low-income communities – to maximize profits while leaving taxpayers to cover the healthcare costs. They explore the tobacco industry's direct involvement in building the processed food industry, the 1999 executive meeting that predicted devastating health consequences, and why this lawsuit could reshape how we think about America's food system.

Pathfinder Church | February 22, 2026 | AJ MasticWe have fewer and fewer “third spaces”—places where people gather together simply for the sake of being with one another. Even community events that used to be primarily experienced in a group (such as cheering on your local team or going to a movie) are now mainly experienced from the (isolated) comfort of our couch and big screen. So why does the church make such a big deal about gathering together every weekend?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | https://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.org

Regenerative medicine is shifting the paradigm from treating symptoms to actually curing the body through cellular repair. In this episode, stem cell scientist and neurophysiologist Christian Drapeau reveals how your body's own stem cells hold the key to longevity, healing chronic pain, and reversing aging.While most people associate stem cells with controversial embryonic research or expensive injections, Christian explains that your body naturally produces them—you just need to know how to activate them. He breaks down the science of endogenous stem cell mobilization, explaining how specific lifestyle choices and plant compounds can release your own repair cells from your bone marrow into your bloodstream. This episode covers: The Aging Equation: Why aging is simply a balance between cellular loss and cellular replacement Natural Mobilization: How to boost stem cells without injections using fasting and plant-based polyphenols Stem Cell Killers: How chronic stress and cortisol suppress your body's ability to repair itself The Truth About Injections: The difference between umbilical cord stem cells and your own biological repair system Regenerative Science: Understanding the shift from palliative care to curative medicine This podcast is for biohackers, chronic pain sufferers, and anyone interested in the frontiers of longevity science who wants to understand how to heal their body from the inside out.

Quand ils virent ce que Paul avait fait, les nombreux assistants crièrent dans leur langue, le lycaonien : Les dieux ont pris forme humaine et ils sont descendus parmi nous. Ils appelaient Barnabas Zeus , et Paul Hermès parce qu'il était le porte-parole. Le prêtre du dieu Zeus, dont le temple se trouvait à l'entrée de la ville, fit amener devant les portes de la cité des taureaux ornés de guirlandes et de fleurs. Déjà il s'apprêtait, avec la foule, à les offrir en sacrifice. Quand les apôtres Barnabas et Paul l'apprirent, ils déchirèrent leurs vêtements en signe de consternation et se précipitèrent au milieu de la foule en s'écriant : Amis, que faites-vous là ? Nous ne sommes que des hommes, nous aussi, semblables à vous. Nous sommes venus vous annoncer une bonne nouvelle : c'est qu'il vous faut abandonner ces idoles inutiles pour vous tourner vers le Dieu vivant, qui a créé le ciel, la terre, la mer et tout ce qui s'y trouve. Dans les siècles passés, ce Dieu a laissé tous les peuples suivre leurs propres chemins. Pourtant, il n'a jamais cessé de leur donner des témoignages de sa bonté, car il vous envoie du ciel la pluie et des fruits abondants en leur saison. Oui, c'est lui qui vous donne de la nourriture en abondance et comble votre cœur de joie. Même en leur parlant ainsi, ils eurent beaucoup de mal à dissuader la foule de leur offrir un sacrifice. Des Juifs arrivèrent d'Antioche et d'Iconium et ils parvinrent à retourner le peuple contre eux : ils lapidèrent Paul, puis ils le traînèrent hors de la ville, croyant qu'il était mort. Mais quand les disciples se rassemblèrent autour de lui, il se releva et rentra dans la ville. Le lendemain, il partit avec Barnabas pour Derbé. Actes 14:11-20

Jonathan Hillis is the founder and caretaker of Cabin, a network of co-living spaces which link up and vet members in other communities via blockchain technology. His "neighborhood" of intentional living is in beautiful Texas Hill Country an hour outside of Austin, where he lives with friends in a hub-and-spoke model of private accommodation surrounding communal social spaces. He's the former CTO of Coinbase, and you can see how his tech background influences his obsession with scalability (we talk about Metcalf's Law, and the optimum size of "one sauna teams") as well as the non-financial elements of blockchain to that end. It actually reminds me a bit of Neil Stephenson's Franchise-Organized Quasi-National Entities or "burbclaves" in Snow Crash. Cabin strikes me as a kind of libertarian commune (though neither Hillis nor myself ever uses the term). It's big scattered geographic network of modular co-ops you can plug into and out of. Vetting community members is a big thing in communes, and Cabin relies on blockchain technology and somethin akin to personal Yelp reviews to allow people to skip up from Austin, TX to like-minded communities in Santa Fe or Portland, or wherever. He joins to discuss his model, and what day-to-day life is like living in an intentional co-living community.

What is music actually doing inside of us? In this solo reflection, Jeff Krasno explores the science and soul of how music shapes the human brain, regulates emotion, and connects us across distance and even across difference. Drawing from neuroscience research, Jeff explains how music can synchronize multiple brains at once, aligning nervous systems during shared emotional moments. EEG studies show that powerful passages in music can create real neural convergence, offering a sense of unity beneath belief and identity. He also explores why we are drawn to sad music. Melancholic songs help regulate emotion, releasing soothing and connective chemicals in the brain that allow us to process grief, longing, and distance while feeling less alone.Through stories of live music, memory, and fatherhood, this episode reveals how music: Synchronizes brains and nervous systems Supports emotional processing and regulation Collapses distance through memory and attachment Helps transform sadness into meaning Reminds us of our shared human wiring Music does not ask what we believe. It moves us anyway.

Lasting love isn't something you find; it is a skill you must practice. In this episode, Jeff Krasno speaks with two leading relationship experts, Yung Pueblo (Diego Perez) and Jillian Turecki, to explore how to build healthy relationships through emotional responsibility, conscious communication, and self-awareness. While society focuses on the romance of falling in love, very little guidance exists on what it takes to sustain connection over time.

This episode covers: The three anchors for loving better: Kindness, Compassion, and Growth Emotional Responsibility: How to communicate feelings without blaming your partner The “Comfort Trap”: Balancing stability with novelty to keep the spark alive Healing the Past: Why your relationship with yourself dictates your romantic success Conflict Resolution: Moving from “fighting to win” to listening to understand Love as a Verb: Practical rituals to show up for your partner even when you don't feel like it This podcast is for couples feeling stuck in a rut, singles looking to break old patterns, and anyone ready to approach love with greater mindfulness and maturity.

 Starting in the autumn of 2025, the US began attacking small civilian boats in or near Venezuelan waters, summarily executing over 126 people. January, 2026 began with it kidnapping Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro and his wife, and bringing them to the US. This month, just weeks after the kidnapping, Haymarket Books published the immensely useful and urgent book, Venezuela in Crisis. The historical range of the book begins with the regime of Hugo Chavez and ends with the 2024 elections in Venezuela.We are immensely fortunate to be able to speak with the editor and translator of this collection of essays, Anderson Bean, and two of its contributors, Emiliano Terán and Simón Rodríguez.  The key argument of the book is that, even by his own admission, Chavez was not able to completely transform Venezuela into a socialist state. The book explains the roots of this failure, despite the inspiring successes of Chavismo. It then tracks an ever-increasing neoliberal and oppressive trend carried forward by Maduro, which is characterized by burgeoning extractivism, corruption, and suppression of human rights.  We end by calling on socialists and progressives everywhere to resist the tendency to side with Maduro's false claims to socialism, and to focus instead on building solidarity with the people of Venezuela.Anderson Bean is a sociology professor at North Carolina A&T State University, a member of the Tempest Collective, and a North Carolina–based activist and editor. He is a contributor to Venezuela in Crisis: Socialist Perspectives (Haymarket Books) and the author of Communes and the Venezuelan State: The Struggle for Participatory Democracy in a Time of Crisis (Lexington Books).Simón Rodríguez is a Venezuelan socialist writer and journalist. He was a student organizer and later became professor at the Universidad de los Andes. When he was a member of the national leadership of the Socialism and Freedom Party, he ran as a candidate for the National Assembly in 2015. He is a founding member of Laclase.info and Venezuelanvoices.org and has published articles in Humania del Sur, NACLA Report on the Americas, The New Arab, and Rebelión and on dozens of electronic outlets, and his articles have been translated into six languages. He has given talks and lectures in Argentina, Brazil, Cuba, and the Dominican Republic. He is coauthor with Miguel Sorans of the book Why Did Chavismo Fail? A Left-Opposition Balance Sheet.Emiliano Terán is a sociologist from the Central University of Venezuela and has a master's degree in ecological economics from the Autonomous University of Barcelona. He is a PhD candidate in environmental science and technology at the same institution. He is also an associate researcher at the Center for Development Studies in Venezuela and a member of the Observatory of Political Ecology of Venezuela

Pour faire face aux actes de délinquances ou à des troubles à l'ordre public, des communes prennent des arrêts "couvre-feu" pour interdire aux mineurs de sortir la nuit, souvent pendant les périodes de vacances scolaires. Il s'agit d'un dispositif qui permet aux forces de l'ordre d'intervenir plus facilement et de ramener les jeunes chez leurs parents si besoin, et de verbaliser. Exemple dans la région de Lens, à Aix-Noulette (4.000 habitants environ). Cette mesure a permis de ramener le calme selon l'équipe municipale en place.

Paris, 1871. The city is under siege. The government has fallen. And in the heart of the chaos, one woman stands defiant with a rifle in hand. Welcome to Louise Michel: The Fearless Revolutionary of the Paris Commune, an episode of Join Us in France that brings history to life like never before. Listen to this episode ad-free Host Annie Sargent and historian Elyse Rivin dive deep into the dramatic story of the Paris Commune—a radical uprising that shook France to its core. For 72 days in 1871, Paris was ruled not by kings or emperors, but by workers, artists, and revolutionaries. At the center of it all? Louise Michel, a schoolteacher turned anarchist whose courage and conviction made her a legend. This isn't just a history lesson. It's a story of defiance, feminism, and revolution that still echoes today. Louise Michel didn't just witness history—she shaped it. Born in 1830, she grew up with privilege but chose a life of activism. She fought on the barricades, organized ambulance stations during the Bloody Week, and even faced down the French army. When the Commune fell, she was arrested, tried, and exiled to New Caledonia. But exile didn't stop her. She learned the local Kanak language, taught indigenous girls, and even joined a revolt against French colonial rule. Later, she returned to France, where she became a feminist icon, traveling across Europe to spread her radical ideas. Annie and Elyse explore the myths and realities of the Commune, from the so-called Pétroleuses (women accused of burning Paris) to the destruction of landmarks like the Tuileries Palace. They discuss Louise's unlikely survival after being shot in the head, her correspondence with Victor Hugo, and her role in creating the black flag of anarchism. This episode also uncovers the Commune's lasting impact on Paris—from the Mur des Fédérés in Père Lachaise Cemetery to the renamed Square Louise Michel near Sacré-Cœur. But the conversation doesn't stop in the 19th century. After the interview, Annie shares updates on the legacy of the Paris 2024 Olympics and how the Olympic Village in Saint-Denis is transforming into a vibrant new neighborhood. It's a reminder that history isn't just about the past—it's about how we live today. If you love stories of bold women, forgotten revolutions, and the hidden layers of Paris, this episode is for you. Whether you're a history buff, a Francophile, or just curious about the untold stories of France, Louise Michel: The Fearless Revolutionary of the Paris Commune will leave you inspired.

The Luminescence Podcast, hosted by Schuyler Grant, powered by Commune. A space for science-based, culturally curious, and politically fearless conversations illuminating women's health. Ever been turned on but dry as the Sahara? Vaginal lubrication doesn't always match desire, and in this episode, Schuyler Grant and her expert panel (Dr. Jolene Brighten, Dr. Marisa Snyder, and Rosie Acosta) explain what our culture – and our doctors – fail to teach us. We break down vaginal health, pH balance, and what is really going on in your body during arousal. What you'll learn: Arousal non-concordance (your wetness doesn't have to match your desire) Vaginal pH and why estrogen is basically a farmer for your vagina What really happens during arousal (spoiler: it takes longer than porn suggests) Why every vagina needs estrogen (postpartum, perimenopause, menopause) Vaginal health myths busted (Can tampons get lost? Are tight vaginas better?) How to know when dryness, itching, or pain needs medical attention Why vaginal health is connected to your overall wellbeing Can you get pregnant during your period? (Depends.) Are all vaginas pink? (Absolutely not.) Should you be doing 50 Kegels a day? (Please stop.) You'll learn why the “tight vagina” myth is harmful, how semen affects vaginal pH, and why vaginal health changes throughout your life. It's the vagina education you never got—science-backed, shame-free, and actually useful.

Mais cet été, en rangeant ma bibliothèque, je suis retombé sur un livre que vous aviez publié en 1995, à la fois très professionnel et assez personnel, intitulé Parlez-moi de la France, paru chez Plon. En le relisant trente ans plus tard, j'ai trouvé qu'il donnait de nombreuses raisons de vous inviter à revenir à ce micro, où nous avons déjà eu le plaisir de vous recevoir.

In this episode of The Commune Podcast, Jeff welcomes back Dr. Gabrielle Lyon — physician, longevity expert, and author of The Forever Strong Playbook — to explore why skeletal muscle is the most overlooked organ in health and aging. They discuss the metabolic link between muscle and brain health, how to think about protein intake at any age, and why building strength safely over time matters more than just lifting heavier. Dr. Lyon also makes a compelling case for mindset as a core pillar of physical transformation. She shares practical ways to build mental toughness alongside muscle, from small daily friction exercises to doing hard things with your family. Today's episode is a grounded, actionable conversation for anyone ready to take their health seriously.

Dermot talks to Carmel Harrington about cults, communes and curiosity - all of which inspired her latest domestic thriller The Nowhere Girls

The Luminescence Podcast, hosted by Schuyler Grant, powered by Commune. A space for science-based, culturally curious, and politically fearless conversations illuminating women's health. Ever wonder why your sex drive vanishes, your brain turns to mush, or you want to rage-quit your entire life for no reason? Blame your hormones, or, more specifically, how estrogen and progesterone run your brain. In this episode, Schuyler Grant and her expert panel (Dr. Jolene Brighten, Dr. Marisa Snyder, and Rosie Acosta) break down why it can feel like your brain is actively betraying you, particularly in perimenopause. What you'll learn: Estrogen and progesterone are brain hormones (not just “lady parts” hormones) The hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian (HPO) axis explained in plain language Why perimenopause brings brain fog, mood swings, anxiety, and vanishing libido The menstrual cycle phases and how hormones shift throughout What's happening to your serotonin, dopamine, and GABA levels Why 80% of perimenopause symptoms happen in your brain A simple breathing technique to calm your nervous system Here's the thing: for decades, doctors thought women's hormones only affected reproduction. Turns out, estrogen and progesterone control your brain, bones, heart, metabolism, gut health, and basically everything. When they start declining in your mid-to-late thirties, your brain goes through a massive remodeling. No wonder you feel like you're losing your mind. This episode helps you understand what's actually happening and how to take back control.

The Luminescence Podcast, hosted by Schuyler Grant, powered by Commune. A space for science-based, culturally curious, and politically fearless conversations illuminating women's health. The clitoral conspiracy is real. This episode explains why women orgasm way less than men in heterosexual relationships (just 65% compared to 95%) and what you can do about it. Schuyler Grant and her expert panel (Dr. Jolene Brighten, Dr. Marisa Snyder, and Rosie Acosta) get real about female anatomy, sexual pleasure, and the cultural myths keeping women from experiencing orgasm. What you'll learn: Clitoral anatomy explained (your clitoris is way bigger than you think—seriously, Google it) Why female orgasm rates are so low in heterosexual relationships The difference between sexual arousal and sexual desire Why penetration-focused sex isn't creating orgasms for most women How to improve intimacy and sexual satisfaction Practical tools for better sex and closing the orgasm gap Here's a fun fact: the clitoris was discovered in 460 BCE, then men decided to just...forget about it for a few thousand years. Most medical textbooks still barely cover female sexual anatomy. This episode offers you some of the sex education you never got—science-based info about women's sexual health, minus the shame, plus honest conversation about what sexual pleasure actually looks like. Featured Guests: Dr. Jolene Brighten – Naturopathic endocrinologist, author of Is This Normal? and Beyond the Pill Dr. Mariza Snyder – Functional wellness expert, author of The Perimenopause Revolution Rosie Acosta – Host of Radically Loved, yoga and meditation teacher Join the conversation: onecommune.com/luminescence-podcast Podcast Partners: LMNTGet a free 8-count Sample Pack of LMNT's most popular drink mix flavors with any purchase at DrinkLMNT.com/TLP Timeline: Go to  Timeline.com/LUMI and get 30% your first order with code ONECOMMUNE30

So often in life we feel pressure to move faster, do more, and figure everything out. But Scripture doesn't invite us to run with God, it invites us to walk with Him. This series is about simplifying our discipleship and walking with Jesus in a sustainable, life giving way. It's not about adding more weight to our schedules, but recentering our lives around five foundational practices that help us grow together, with intention and clarity: Commune. Church. Connect. Contribute. Corner.We're starting this week with the first and most important step: Communing with Jesus. This is about creating space to be with Jesus personally and daily. We don't want to be rushing into activity or responsibility, but learning to slow down, listen, and walk with Him before everything else. It's where the walk begins.Before we work for Him we need to learn to walk with him.

In this episode of the Commune Podcast, Jeff Krasno sits down with Amanda de Cadenet for a candid conversation about sobriety, addiction, nervous system regulation, and what it actually takes to change deeply ingrained patterns. Framed around the New Year and the cultural pull toward resolutions, the conversation explores alcohol as a socially accepted coping mechanism, its effects on sleep, metabolism, emotional regulation, and social inhibition, and why so many people continue to drink despite understanding the risks. Together, they examine addiction not as a failure of willpower, but as an attempt to soothe discomfort, create connection, and regulate the nervous system. Moving beyond abstinence alone, the episode looks at community as medicine, the role of ritual and accountability, and why long term recovery requires rebuilding an entire internal structure. From twelve-step recovery and cognitive behavioral tools to prayer, service, and presence, the discussion emphasizes change made one day at a time rather than through sweeping transformation.

THE RISE OF THE PARIS COMMUNE FOLLOWING THE SIEGE Colleague Sebastian Smee. By March 1871, following a winter of starvation where Parisians ate rats and zoo animals, the city's radical Republicans revolted against the provisional government. The radicals, frustrated by the government's failure to break the Prussian siege and the subsequent humiliating surrender terms, seized cannons and established the Commune. This new government aimed for localized, democratic control but was viewed by the national government, now retreated to Versailles under Adolphe Thiers, as an insurrection. The Commune was libertarian and progressive but faced immediate isolation. Having survived the Prussian siege, the Communards now found themselves besieged by French government forces, setting the stage for a brutal civil conflict where the "brother fought brother" narrative of the 19th century would reach a violent climax.
