Wir lernen einiges über Schnabel- und Rüsselsprachen, in der Realität und in Jay Eatons „Runaway to the Stars“. Der überbordend fantasievolle Comic inspiriert uns auch zu der Frage, aus welchen Gründen überhaupt Geschichten in SciFi-Settings erzählt werden. Außerdem: das neue Feld der wissenschaftlich-fantastischen Wissenschaft und ein Geschmacksexperiment.

Nos enlazamos con el Sr. González para hablar de "Aire de Realidad", un proyecto que fusiona una novela gráfica con un álbum conceptual. La historia sigue a Teo Baltierra y explora la tensión entre la realidad objetiva, el mundo virtual y los sueños, mientras critica la superficialidad de la industria musical actual. Sr. González nos cuenta cómo nació esta obra, su resistencia al formato comercial, y la importancia de la ética en el uso de la tecnología, incluyendo la inteligencia artificial.https://open.spotify.com/intl-es/album/68iS2r7SKHRhffnL0LM9IUhttps://srgonzlez.bandcamp.com/album/aire-de-realidad-m-sica-original-de-la-novela-gr-ficahttps://www.instagram.com/diabloglez/https://www.tiktok.com/@diabloglezhttps://x.com/diabloglez

“In that moment of silence, you just remain silent and eventually the person in front of you will say something more and add more and add more. And often it's more and more personal…” David Deighton Top Five Tips For Active Listening1.  Active listening, all senses included2. How are all performance artists while listening3. Abstract listening example4. Conceptual listening example5. Listening with strangers TIME STAMP SUMMARY01:36  Using all senses to be truly present in a conversation.05:10  Silence demonstrates respect 11:20   Disrupting social norms to have deeper conversations 20:10  Acting with intent ties back to active listening Where to find David?Website                          https://www.triptychdialogue.com/ YouTube                         https://www.youtube.com/@triptych-dialogue  David Deighton Bio I am told that my work is unusual and urgent. I'll explain, first my background: I am an artist, educator, father, world traveller and entrepreneur working on transformational experiences using abstract art. My background as an art dealer and creator of a successful art business allowed me to invest back into community and country. I use art to do this. I am about engaging strangers in the spirit on connection, and I do this in innovative ways. I'm focused on the taboo subject of politics, but that word can be exchanged for a multitude of taboo subjects. I do NOT talk politics rather it's about tools to heal community, bridge divides, transform and explore artistic expression. For the last 6 years I have been actively engaging with strangers in public spaces, asking them to talk to their political opponents, listen to them and find commonalities. So far all has gone well without confrontation. How do I do this? I set up art installations in free speech areas where I share communication techniques with the public to use in engaging with strangers. Thousands of visitors have discovered my work in unlikely venues such as National Parks or even a mountain top. I'm happy to share what I have discovered and also share stories from my encounters, my multiple travels around the World or offer insights into humanity. All these experiments have been profoundly transformative. Listeners will discover meaningful ways to change our course away from division and hatred to a healthier exchange that benefits them and those around them. 

Warum kreisen unsere Gedanken manchmal ständig ums Essen? Mit Ernährungspsychologe Frédéric Letzner sprechen wir über Food Noise, Diäten und Verbote, emotionales Essen, intuitive Ernährung, Bodybuilding, Social Media und GLP‑1‑Abnehmspritzen. Dabei geht es um die Frage, wann Gesundheitsstreben kippt – und wie ein entspannteres Verhältnis zu Essen und Körper entstehen kann. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dominiks Buch zur pflanzenbasierten Sporternährung im UTB-Verlag: https://www.utb.de/doi/book/10.36198/9783838560328 Dominiks Gesundheitscommunity: www.gsundes-hannover.de Dominiks Online-Knie-Kurs: https://gsundes-hannover.de/knieschmerzen/ Dominiks Online-Rücken-Kurs: https://copecart.com/products/34bd5abb/checkout Marcs veganes Online-Fitness-Coaching: https://vegainer-academy.com/ Marcs Online-Kurs: https://www.copecart.com/products/a50f88f2/checkout Frédérics Instagram-Kanal: https://www.instagram.com/frederic.letzner.official/?hl=de Frédérics Webseite: https://fredericletzner.de/ Frédérics Online-Kurse: https://fredericletzner-kurs.de/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dieser Podcast wird unterstützt von der Firma Watson Nutrition.

Es kann mit erhöhtem Risiko für gestörtes Essverhalten und Muskeldysmorphie verbunden sein. Ebenso können rigide Clean-Eating-Regeln und Essanfälle zusammenhängen, gehören aber nicht zwangsläufig zusammen. 00:51:58:17–00:56:05:17 – Fasten, Körperhass und Veganismus: Fasten „zerstört“ Hunger- und Sättigungssignale nicht generell. Es kann bei vulnerablen Menschen problematisch werden. Auch die behauptete hohe Dunkelziffer an Essstörungen unter vegan lebenden Menschen ist nicht belegt. Eine vegane Ernährung kann in Einzelfällen Restriktion verdecken, ist aber nicht automatisch ein Risikomarker. 01:09:03:17–01:09:58:17 – Langzeitfolgen von GLP-1: „Langzeitfolgen sind unbekannt“ ist zu grob. Es liegen inzwischen Daten über mehrere Jahre vor; offene Fragen betreffen besonders lebenslange Anwendung und sehr seltene Folgen. Quellenverzeichnis American Psychiatric Association. (2022).

This week on the Slappin' Glass Podcast, Dan and Pat are joined by International Pro Head Coach and player development specialist Matt Jones for a deep dive into shooting development, coaching communication, and building conceptual offense.The conversation opens with Jones' approach to evaluating shooters, beginning with one of his core beliefs: watch the player first. Before over-coaching or over-correcting, Jones discusses the value of being a “quiet eye,” identifying inefficiencies, and helping players simplify their shooting movement. From there, he gets into the details of clean catches, loaded wrists, open palms, shot preparation, and how small mechanical improvements can create real gains at higher levels.Jones also shares how he uses player feedback, feel-based cues, and individualized terminology to help shooters self-correct. Rather than flooding players with technical language, he explains how the best cues often come from what the player physically feels, giving coaches a more useful way to teach shooting under pressure.In the show's Start, Sub, or Sit segment, the conversation shifts to finding your coaching voice as an introvert, where Jones breaks down the importance of preparation, listening, terminology, and getting enough coaching reps to build confidence. The episode closes with a thoughtful discussion on conceptual offense, including re-triggers, offensive talk, cutting rules, late-clock structure, and how to help players find the next action without becoming robotic.What You'll LearnHow Matt Jones evaluates shooters before making mechanical correctionsWhy simplifying a player's shot can improve repeatability and efficiencyThe importance of clean catches, open palms, loaded wrists, and eliminating wasted movementHow to introduce variability into shooting workouts without overwhelming the playerWhy feel-based cues can be more effective than over-teaching techniqueHow analytics can help shape shooting development without damaging a player's confidenceWhy free throws can be used as a powerful form-shot reset inside a workoutHow introverted coaches can develop their voice through preparation, terminology, and coaching repsWhy “your terminology is your culture” when communicating with playersHow conceptual offense depends on cutting rules, spacing, re-triggers, and offensive talkWhy the player with the ball must think like the point guard in read-based offenseHow random practice environments can help players learn to self-organize late in possessionsTo join coaches and championship winning staffs from the NBA to High School from over 70 different countries taking advantage of an SG Plus membership, visit HERE!

Scholars publish more papers every year, but does that output actually add up to knowledge? In this episode, Michael sat down with three scholars who have been asking exactly that question within the field of environmental governance. The guests are editors and contributors behind a special issue of Environmental Policy and Governance (Fall 2025), dedicated to the problem of scientific cumulation: whether research in this field is building on itself, or simply accumulating. Guests Michael Rose — Senior Researcher, Leuphana University Jens Newig — Professor, Leuphana University Sina Leipold — Professor, Helmholtz Center for Environmental Research In this episode Michael Rose and Jens discuss their own contribution to the special issue, "How to Assess Knowledge Cumulation in Environmental Governance Research? Conceptual and Empirical Explorations," which analyzes the Earth Systems Governance (ESG) research community. Their findings are sobering: ESG research shows limited potential for knowledge cumulation, marked by a fragmented journal landscape, core-periphery citation structures, heterogeneous research questions, and few shared reference works, concepts, or frameworks. The conversation also ranges across the special issue as a whole, which tackles the cumulation problem from several angles: Bibliometric analysis mapping how key concepts like "environmental governance process" are used inconsistently across research communities Methodology, including whether archetype analysis in social-ecological systems research can serve as a genuine building block for theory Why researchers chase novelty and what that costs the field Forest carbon offsetting in Uganda as a case study showing how even a small, focused body of literature can fail to accumulate when papers rest on incompatible theoretical assumptions Epistemological diversity, indigenous and local knowledge, and the role science-policy interfaces play in translating knowledge into practice in climate and biodiversity governance Link to special issue: Special issue: Knowledge Cumulation in Environmental Governance, Environmental Policy and Governance, Fall 2025

He's also a freelance researcher, a philosopher, and an educator. He's here today to educate us about some of the fundamental differences between living organisms and machines, like AI, and why we should care about those differences. We discuss his paper The Cyborg Myth, an argument for why we can't seamlessly replace ourselves with machine parts over time. We talk about judgment and relevance realization as a fundamental difference between AI and living organisms -the ability to judge what is a relevant problem to solve in the first place, assuming intelligence is about problem solving. We also discuss what agency is in living systems, and why AI agents are something completely different. I think you get the recurring theme here.

Transformation Tip: “Great things in business are never done by one person. They're done by a team of people.” — Steve JobsHave you ever looked around your team and thought, "We have talented people, so why does it still feel so hard?" In this episode, Steve and Pete explore a leadership principle that can dramatically impact team performance: putting the right people in the right positions. They discuss why talent alone isn't enough, how leaders unintentionally create imbalance, and what happens when individuals are aligned with their strengths.In This Episode:Why talented teams can still struggleThe difference between Conceptual and Concrete leadersHow leadership blind spots affect hiring decisionsThe importance of positioning people according to their strengthsStories from Steve and Pete's leadership journeysPractical ways to create better team alignmentA simple exercise you can apply with your team this weekTransformation Application: This week, take a fresh look at your team and ask yourself:What unique strength does each person bring?Are they more Conceptual or Concrete in their approach?Are they currently positioned to thrive?Then identify one conversation, adjustment, or encouragement that could create better alignment and help your team perform at its highest level.Connect On Social:Podcast Facebook PageSteve Facebook Steve InstagramSteve LinkedInPete FacebookPete Instagram Pete LinkedIn

McCollum Hall is a two-story building on the corner of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd and Cranford Avenue on the eastern side of downtown Fort Myers, just past the railroad tracks on the western edge of the Dunbar Community. The City of Fort Myers designated McCollum Hall as a local historic landmark in 1998 and it was officially added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2022. Over the years there have been a number of stops and starts in efforts and plans to bring it back to life in some form. The city's Community Redevelopment Agency took over the property in 2008 and repaired the roof and shored up the structure. The building's facade got a facelift in 2016 with the help of a state historic preservation grant. Now, the CRA has approved a new conceptual design proposal from Fort Myers architects Parker Mudgett Smith for the restoration and adaptive reuse which includes a restaurant, performing space, retail space and a business center — and the CRA has purchased the adjoining property so it will have a larger footprint.

Sure, I bet we can all think of a concept. But could you define exactly what a "concept" is? What it isn't? How about teach a concept? This week Dr. Catherine Williams joins us to look at the concept of concepts using both behavior analytic terminology and some fun, experimental behavioral research. Because making up rules about what defines the concept of a fancy triangle doesn't always cut it. And because sometimes your non-examples are much too far out, hippie.

Tyler Clark sits down with Alessandro Nocera, an Italian basketball coach serving as individual player development coach at Saski Baskonia (EuroLeague) and head coach of the Italian U15 National Team. Alessandro's perspective has been shaped by six transformative years in the Spanish basketball system, which he credits with fundamentally reshaping how he sees and teaches the game.The conversation covers Alessandro's core offensive philosophy — dynamic vs. static one-on-one play and what it means to make decisions before the catch, not after. From there, Tyler and Alessandro dig into conceptual offense design, practice structure across different contexts, balancing offense and defense in limited time, the role of video and staff, and the deeply human side of coaching — adapting to every player and team as individuals.Timestamps15:01 — Alessandro's background and introduction 16:49 — Nike, Jordan Brand, Jr. NBA, UEFA license, and connection to Alex Sarama 17:28 — Dynamic vs. static 1v1: the foundational offensive concept 18:02 — Why stopping the ball kills the advantage 18:51 — Making decisions before the catch, not after 19:41 — Why static players fail to maximize potential at high levels 21:41 — Never play with two feet on the ground 22:30 — Teaching peripheral vision from a young age 23:30 — Why NBA players almost never catch with two feet 25:21 — Stampede actions and why they appear in every NBA action 25:50 — Soccer's influence on reading the game 26:27 — Messina and Consolini's influence on Alessandro's philosophy 27:11 — Guards and wings must always know where the 4 and 5 are 29:16 — How video accelerates learning in modern players 30:10 — Structuring development sessions across different contexts 32:30 — Building fundamentals from the game out: CLA with constraints, then on-air detail 33:25 — Evolving from drilling all day to surfing the fundamental spectrum 36:28 — Adapting to individual players: variability vs. focused repetition 37:27 — There's no system for everything — read the player and the game 38:45 — Adapting your philosophy entirely to your personnel 40:34 — Empathy in coaching: where art meets science 41:19 — Conceptual offense: what it is and what it isn't 44:10 — Alessandro's offensive structure: fast break in five, attack off every catch 46:10 — Run in five — all five players sprint immediately on possession 47:07 — Three core principles: spacing reads, zero-second decisions, inside-outside 48:05 — Rebounding as a habit, not a mindset 48:47 — Defensive philosophy: press the ball, cross steps, zero distance 49:16 — Triggers are secondary when your principles are locked in 51:53 — How to select triggers: analyze personnel and fit the action to the player 54:45 — Why coaches misunderstand conceptual offense as "just playing" 55:06 — Alessandro's team passes beautifully without ever formally training passing 56:47 — One rule: one-on-one always, one against two is a turnover 57:51 — Alessandro always used small-sided games — CLA before he had the language 59:52 — Classic constraint: 5v5 inside the three-point line 01:00:44 — Italian coaching school: Messina and Cremolini's influence 01:01:19 — Cremolini's CLA with 7-year-olds: teaching the layup without saying "layup" 01:04:20 — Weak hand constraint: score with the weak hand = double points 01:05:23 — Competition makes everything more natural 01:05:57 — The spy drill: players coach each other 01:07:52 — Messina's 10 drills, defensive footwork, and connecting 1v1 to 5v5 01:09:24 — Why defense doesn't get enough attention 01:10:05 — 50% of the game is defense — why is practice 90% offense? 01:11:15 — Defense is repetition — spend the time, get the result 01:12:39 — Staff dedicated to defense while you run offense — and vice versa 01:13:45 — The 11-man drill problem: nobody corrects the defense 01:15:55 — 3v2 and 4v3 as the best drills for ball pressure and collaboration 01:16:54 — For AAU coaches with one hour: cut everything to live play 01:17:46 — No assistant?

By David Stephen who looks at Neuroimaging and prediction adiction in this article. There is a recent report in The New York Times, Minnesota Becomes First State to Ban Prediction Markets, stating that, "Under the law, a person who creates, operates or advertises a prediction market that allows users to place bets on future events could be charged with a felony punishable by up to five years in prison and a $10,000 fine. The law would not subject Minnesotans who bet on the sites to criminal penalties." "Millions of Americans bet billions of dollars each month on markets ranging from the price of oil to who will win the reality show "Survivor." The markets have come under heightened scrutiny as suspicious trades have come to light and fueled concerns about insider trading." "Hundreds of other unusual bets have also raised eyebrows. A New York Times analysis of Polymarket data showed hundreds of bets placed one day before the United States launched an attack on Iran, suggesting some bettors may have known the strike was coming. In April, Kalshi said it had discovered three examples of congressional candidates placing bets on their own races." Problem gambling research lab with conceptual neuroimaging? There could be many ways to regulate prediction markets. However, the likelihood that they would eradicate most of the risks that people are exposed to might be slight. There are already gaming regulation suggestions, for example, in Europe to ensure that people do not bet using credit. There are several others around time limits, fewer betting options, and so on. However, these can be regarded as technical. This means that there are two approaches to dealing with problem gambling: a technical side and a mind side. Most of the ways that digital addictions, like social media, video games and others were approached has been lopsided. While progress was made, they were never as effective in amplifying willpower and providing measures of risks before certain consequential decisions. This is the reason to have a major problem gambling research lab, with conceptual neuroimaging as the core path, for mind safety, against prediction markets addiction. Simply, how can there be a dynamic display of the human mind, for relays and destinations that can show the reach of addiction in the mind? So, like a flowchart, there can be boxes and arrows, labeled with possible destinations of mind. Then, some data points [timing, type of game, odds, and so forth] can be used to decided relays, helping to show parallels of what is happening in the mind. It will especially show the addiction destinations and how they feedback to the pleasure destination, as well as ignore the consequences and caution destinations. The purpose is to ensure mind safety, so that people are aware of what is happening in their minds. This would be comparable to showing [say] the corrosion of something, given the effect of another substance. The application is a flowchart with different shapes representing destinations in the mind and then different lines and arrows representing relays. It will be dynamic, such that it can take some data, either entered manually or automatically, and then display the relays of mind, in the instance. It will be developed using data visualization algorithms, fitting in a flowchart format. It may also be pre-trained with some existing gaming data, to ensure that it is possible to automate tens of possibilities in the mind. The application will be miniaturized for compliance with some gaming apps aside from its standalone iteration. Some prediction markets can have this lab, while some other sports betting or addiction companies may do as well. Just to see the mind, score and fasten prevention against risks and losses. This solution will ensure that there is enough fairness to avoid people saying they did not have a choice or could not stop themselves. The application will standalone, but can also be displayed on the side of some apps, as well as...

Dive into the principles of conceptual defense in basketball with Charles Klask, a highly respected NBA coach and champion who served on the Denver Nuggets' staff during their historic 2023 NBA Championship run. With decades of experience across the Denver Nuggets, Detroit Pistons, Brooklyn Nets, and Orlando Magic, Klask shares how conceptual defense serves as the essential counter to modern offense—moving beyond rigid rules to flexible, principle-based systems that allow players to read and react intelligently in the game's “gray areas.”The discussion unpacks the core ideas behind self-organization within clear team parameters, such as shrinking the floor without surrendering strong-side corner threes. Charles shares how coaches can create a collaborative, empowering environment by involving players in defining team values, fostering a “safe to fail” culture, and using targeted “sniper coaching.”Listeners will also learn practical tactical tools like “if-then” decision frameworks and the innovative “Medal System” for prioritizing actions and valuing possessions—Gold (no free throws), Silver (no layups), and more. Whether you're a coach, player, or basketball enthusiast, this episode delivers powerful strategies for building adaptable, high-level defensive systems.

Aunque hace ya 40 años que el aborto es legal en España, sigue siendo difícil encontrar mujeres que quieran hablar abierta y públicamente sobre su experiencia de interrumpir voluntariamente un embarazo. Sin embargo, es cada vez más frecuente escuchar argumentos beligerantes en contra de este derecho que identifican con la “cultura de la muerte” y se llaman a sí mismos “provida”. Con Ana Requena Aguilar, redactora jefa de Género en elDiario.es, y autora del ensayo ‘Provida. Un manifiesto a favor del aborto’, resignificamos el término que se han arrogado con mucha eficacia quienes se oponen a un derecho fundamental para que las mujeres puedan desarrollar una vida plena y en igualdad. *** Envíanos una nota de voz por Whatsapp contándonos alguna historia que conozcas o algún sonido que tengas cerca y que te llame la atención.

In this episode, hosts Jon Orr and Yvette Lehman unpack a tension that's been debated in math education for decades: conceptual understanding vs. procedural fluency.Yvette shares a powerful realization from her math classroom experience: in striving to teach conceptually, she may have unintentionally neglected opportunities for students to build automaticity and recall. Meanwhile, Jon highlights the importance of helping students move fluidly between visual models, strategies, and algorithms.Together, they explore:Why the “either/or” debate in math instruction is a false dichotomyHow different learners benefit from different approachesWhat happens when math teaching becomes too rigid in one directionThe role of tutoring, parents, and community partners in shaping math successWhy strong math instruction should leverage strengths while building other proficienciesHow educators can balance reasoning, understanding, and efficiencyThis conversation is a reminder that great math teaching isn't about choosing sides—it's about creating access, building flexibility, and meeting students where they are.

In this solo episode, George Vaz addresses the common challenges coaches face when transitioning from traditional pattern-based offenses to a conceptual offense using the Constraints-Led Approach (CLA).

What if one of the most common terms in math education — conceptual understanding in math — isn't actually understood the same way across schools, systems, or even math classrooms?A recent podcast sparked a big question: is conceptual understanding in math poorly defined? The challenge wasn't just the definition itself, but the claim that conceptual understanding in math may be getting in the way of math fluency. In this episode, Jon Orr, Yvette Lehman, and Beth Curran unpack that tension and wrestle with a deeper issue: maybe conceptual understanding in math is not poorly defined in research, but poorly understood and inconsistently implemented in practice.In this episode, you'll learn:Why conceptual understanding in math and math fluency should not be framed as opposing goalsHow conceptual understanding in math supports retention, reasoning, and equitable access to math learningWhy poor implementation of conceptual understanding in math can create confusion and pushbackHow overemphasizing one part of math instruction can unintentionally crowd out purposeful math practice and explicit math instructionWhy dips in math data should not automatically trigger a rejection of conceptual understanding in mathHow math leaders can build coherence around what conceptual understanding in math actually looks like in math classroomsAsk yourself: when your team says “conceptual understanding in math,” do you all mean the same thing? If not, that may be the real math improvement work ahead.Not sure what matters most when designing math improvement plans?

Ideas do not reach perfection in a day, no matter how much study is put upon them.”—Alexander Graham Bell BH Sales Wellness Wisdom on this Thursday, March 19, 2026. Since GB is currently at Day 34, I can present this with the authority of someone who has already crossed that 30-day "habit threshold."Here is the synopsized show flow, framed for my Facebook Blog/Podcast style.Date: 3/19/26 | Host: Bill Holt, Goodwill AmbassadorTheme: The Architecture of Vibration Communication (VC)"Welcome to the show. Today is March 18th, and I'm standing at Day 34 of my personal integration with Vibration Communication. People often ask: 'Grandpa Bill, why the 30-day commitment?' After 40 years in holistic health, I can tell you: 30 days is the mechanical minimum to move a practice from your head into your cells. It's the time required to build a habit of Next-Level Resilience in a world that demands it. We aren't just 'trying' something; we are rebuilding our vibratory foundation.""For those joining the journey, let's get technical but keep it practical. VC is a voice-activated, self-healing modality.Phase 1: Creating vibrant internal health through Sustained Vowel Sounds (SVS).The Science: By matching your unique voice to specific healing frequencies 432 { Hz}, 128 { Hz}, 40 { Hz}, you are literally 'charging up' your organs and body systems.""Even if you never move to Phase 2, Phase 1 is a game-changer. I'm seeing it in my own hand dexterity and memory.Sustained Awareness: Being present in the 'now.'Enhanced Memory: Using the 40 { Hz}$frequency to clear the fog.Multidimensional Health: It hits every layer—physical, emotional, and spiritual.""I'm opening the floor. We're going to start with the basics and go as deep as you want to take it. I'm monitoring the comments in our group—if you see a question that hasn't been answered, tag me. Let's bushwhack this path together."Post Title: Day 34 | The VC Blueprint & Why 30 Days MattersThe "Why": 30 days isn't a challenge; it's a recalibration. In a world of high-stress EMFs, we need a high-vibration response.The "What": Vibration Communication (VC) is using your own voice as the pharmacy. Through SVS (Sustained Vowel Sounds), we are manually raising our body chemistry.The "Bill Holt" Angle: At Day 34, I'm no longer practicing—I'm performing. My hands are more fluid, my mind is sharper, and my "Conceptual" pillar is locked in.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bOtmQv3O7T8 Podcast audio: It is common to think of values as things we “discover” about ourselves — pre-packaged preferences waiting somewhere deep inside. We speak, for example, of “discovering our passion” or of finally realizing “what we were meant to do,” as if these priorities had been there all along. On this view, valuing is automatic: we simply respond to our needs, desires, or emotions. In his 2025 Objectivist Summer Conference talk, titled “Conceiving Values,” Gregory Salmieri offers a different account. Drawing on Ayn Rand's distinctive view, he argues that valuing is not passive or instinctive. It is an active, cognitive achievement — something we must choose, learn, and practice. Values, Salmieri explains, are goals within an ongoing process of self-sustaining action. Other organisms act to preserve themselves, but only human beings can conceptually identify and plan out their values. To concretize this process, Salmieri turns to the work of creators.  An architect does not discover their buildings ready-made in the world; a novelist does not stumble upon finished stories; each must actively conceive a guiding idea and gradually give it concrete form.

This week, we are joined by Kevin Mitchell, Associate Professor of Genetics and Neuroscience at Trinity College Dublin, who has committed the unforgivable sin of pointing out that an entire academic and media hype cycle might be built on… well, very little actually. His new co-authored paper in Neuron politely dismantles the highly promoted link between the gut microbiome and autism, which turns out to rest on flawed studies, contradictory findings, creative statistics, and a touching faith in mice burying marbles.Kevin walks us through the joys of observational studies that don't replicate, mouse experiments that don't make sense, and clinical trials where there is no blinding and no control wing, and shockingly, everyone reports feeling better. Meanwhile, journalists and wellness gurus eagerly report each new “breakthrough”, unburdened by any concerns about the strength of evidence or methodological robustness.In the end, the microbiome–autism connection looks less like a sturdy scientific stool and more like three damp twigs taped together by optimism and marketing departments.We finish, naturally, by dragging Matt back out of his panpsychism phase and asking whether consciousness is really fundamental to the universe or just something that happens in podcasters who haven't slept enough.LinksMitchell, K. J., Dahly, D. L., & Bishop, D. V. (2025). Conceptual and methodological flaws undermine claims of a link between the gut microbiome and autism. Neuron.Kevin Mitchell's Website

Tyler, The Creator says "Don't Tap The Glass" isn't a concept album. No narrative. No deep themes. Just a fun, fast, braggadocious dance record. But what if that is the concept? In this video essay, we dive deep into Don't Tap The Glass to uncover the album's hidden intentionality — from its crate-dug samples and alter-ego iconography to its sacred rules of the dance floor. Through cultural history, sonic connections, and Tyler's own words, we explore how this album frames dance as a spiritual ritual, freedom as resistance, and joy as high art. Topics Covered: The spiritual meaning behind the album's opening Hebrew sample Big Poe as a tribute to hip hop history and Tyler's alter-ego iconography How Tyler uses crate-digging to honor Black dance music traditions The deeper meaning of the album's 3 rules — and why they matter now more than ever Sample breakdowns: from Mantronix to Junun, “Boogie Nights” to J Dilla Learn more about your ad choices.
