Hello sunshine! How do you enter a new day? Do you slowly stretch into it, or do you immediately plug in to dopamine via technology and screens? Join Camille and Luis as they discuss how living seasonally and cyclically can be supportive and resourcing to our bodies. At one time everyone lived in tandem with the seasons.  Caffeine and electricity allowed our ancestors to break their own boundaries and nature's boundaries (of seasons, light, and temperature). This evolved into the dissociative "go go go crash" cycle, causing us to ignore the fatigue and exhaustion. Culturally this looks like overreach, personally it looks like burnout. Contributing to this mindset is the overcoupling of depression with the minimalism and stillness of winter. However, Fall and Winter are not about death, but about energy conservation in preparation for the productive seasons of Spring and Summer.  Join us as we harness the energy of the sun on Saturday, June 28, 2025 at 12pm EDT for a webinar where we sink more in to this juicy topic. When is your season of wintering in a year, month, and day? When is your season of rebirth and productivity in a year, month, and day? You can register for the webinar here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/events/living-seasonally-cyclically-how-i-recovered-from-burnoutYou can read more about, and register for, the Living Seasonally & Cyclically webinar here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/events/living-seasonally-cyclically-how-i-recovered-from-burnout You can read more about, and register for, the 6-month Embodied Nutrition group here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/slow-practice-nutrition-group----You can learn more on the website: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/ Learn more about the self-led course here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/self-led-new Join the waitlist to pre-order Luis' book here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/the-book You can follow Luis on Instagram @holistic.life.navigationQuestions?

Contributing writer Jake Fogleman and I break down Senate Republicans' new proposal to remove everything but machineguns and destructive devices from regulation under the National Firearms Act as part of President Trump's "big beautiful bill." We discuss the upsides and pitfalls of this approach for gun-rights advocates and explain what needs to happen next for it to become law. We also cover a new ruling out of the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals on the federal Gun Free School Zones Act, a new DOJ brief arguing that AR-15s are protected by the Second Amendment, and emerging new details surrounding a tragic shooting at a recent protest in Salt Lake City.

New data shows that 40 percent of corporation tax owed by UK small businesses remains unpaid, resulting in an estimated 15 billion pounds in lost annual revenue. The small business tax gap increased during the pandemic and has not improved, while other tax gaps have narrowed. Contributing factors include complex regulations, limited resources, and economic uncertainty. Authorities are advised to address the issue through improved education, digital tools, streamlined reporting, and targeted support for small businesses.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

From Michelin Stars to Mission-Driven ImpactYannick Alléno is best known for revolutionizing French cuisine. But in recent years, he's stepped into an entirely different arena—road safety advocacy. After his son's life was taken in a senseless car crash, Yannick transformed his grief into action, founding an association to tackle road violence through legislative reform, youth support, and technological innovation.Launching the “Impact” Initiative at VivaTechAt VivaTech 2025, Alléno launched the Impact initiative—the first platform rallying civil tech actors to combat road deaths globally. The effort brought together over 120 startups from 42 countries, proposing solutions spanning AI, sensor tech, vehicle safety systems, and behavior-change tools. Three standout projects were showcased:A steering wheel sensor detecting alcohol levels through perspirationA motorcycle safety application enhancing rider visibilityA chemical grip agent reducing aquaplaning on roads“Tech can save lives, and it can be a good business too,” Yannick says.The Power of Storytelling & CultureBeyond policy and startups, Impact uses art and storytelling to change public perception. Its signature performance, Fragiles, fuses dance, music, and testimonies - including from perpetrators of road violence - to humanize the statistics and engage younger audiences.This intersection of emotional resonance and policy innovation is at the heart of the project's approach.Advocacy Through Law, Support, and AwarenessImpact's mission rests on three pillars:Legal reform: Contributing to the reclassification of reckless road violence as homicide in FranceFamily support: Providing psychological and financial help to families, especially children impacted by the loss of siblings or parentsCultural transformation: Running awareness campaigns that challenge outdated narratives around driving, alcohol, and responsibilityScaling a Global CauseFrom France to New Delhi, Alléno's ambition is global. He's seeking partnerships with governments, insurers, mobility companies, and tech leaders to embed road safety solutions at scale. Renault is already an anchor partner, providing both financial and strategic support.This isn't bad luck, it's preventable.

Mark Ericksen, creator of the Elixir LangChain framework, joins the Elixir Wizards to talk about LLM integration in Elixir apps. He explains how LangChain abstracts away the quirks of different AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic's Claude, Google's Gemini) so you can work with any LLM in one more consistent API. We dig into core features like conversation chaining, tool execution, automatic retries, and production-grade fallback strategies. Mark shares his experiences maintaining LangChain in a fast-moving AI world: how it shields developers from API drift, manages token budgets, and handles rate limits and outages. He also reveals testing tactics for non-deterministic AI outputs, configuration tips for custom authentication, and the highlights of the new v0.4 release, including “content parts” support for thinking-style models. Key topics discussed in this episode: • Abstracting LLM APIs behind a unified Elixir interface • Building and managing conversation chains across multiple models • Exposing application functionality to LLMs through tool integrations • Automatic retries and fallback chains for production resilience • Supporting a variety of LLM providers • Tracking and optimizing token usage for cost control • Configuring API keys, authentication, and provider-specific settings • Handling rate limits and service outages with degradation • Processing multimodal inputs (text, images) in Langchain workflows • Extracting structured data from unstructured LLM responses • Leveraging “content parts” in v0.4 for advanced thinking-model support • Debugging LLM interactions using verbose logging and telemetry • Kickstarting experiments in LiveBook notebooks and demos • Comparing Elixir LangChain to the original Python implementation • Crafting human-in-the-loop workflows for interactive AI features • Integrating Langchain with the Ash framework for chat-driven interfaces • Contributing to open-source LLM adapters and staying ahead of API changes • Building fallback chains (e.g., OpenAI → Azure) for seamless continuity • Embedding business logic decisions directly into AI-powered tools • Summarization techniques for token efficiency in ongoing conversations • Batch processing tactics to leverage lower-cost API rate tiers • Real-world lessons on maintaining uptime amid LLM service disruptions Links mentioned: https://rubyonrails.org/ https://fly.io/ https://zionnationalpark.com/ https://podcast.thinkingelixir.com/ https://github.com/brainlid/langchain https://openai.com/ https://claude.ai/ https://gemini.google.com/ https://www.anthropic.com/ Vertex AI Studio https://cloud.google.com/generative-ai-studio https://www.perplexity.ai/ https://azure.microsoft.com/ https://hexdocs.pm/ecto/Ecto.html https://oban.pro/ Chris McCord's ElixirConf EU 2025 Talk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojL_VHc4gLk Getting started: https://hexdocs.pm/langchain/gettingstarted.html https://ash-hq.org/ https://hex.pm/packages/langchain https://hexdocs.pm/igniter/readme.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WM9iQlQSFg @brainlid on Twitter and BlueSky Special Guest: Mark Ericksen.

On the right to protest. [For the full episode, subscribe at patreon.com/bungacast] Contributing editor Alex Gourevitch talks to Alex H and George about restrictions on speech and protest at US universities and beyond – particularly with regard to Palestine solidarity demonstrations. How have uni administrators not just undermined by seemingly attacked the right to protest? Why is Trump going after the universities this way? How have progressives undermined the right of protest by talking up the role of 'harm'? How have pro-Israel groups been complicit in treating political speech as an attack on identities? Why have so many authorities chosen the defence of Israel as their hill to die on?

The rise of generative AI could be putting children at risk. Gloria Masters, founder of 'Handing The Shame Back', believes the current digital environment has enabled “much more sexualised content” of children to be available to predators. AI tools allow people to remove clothing from people in photos, such as children, creating fake nude images they can then trade. She told Kerre Woodham that share your photos with trusted friends and family members by all means, but the days of posting them on Facebook, Instagram, and other such platforms are gone. According to Masters, research shows that 85% of online offenders become contact offenders, going on to abuse real children. She says it's important to stop giving predators a free pass and remove content so they can't access it. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this week's episode, we delve into the big economic news shaping our world and portfolios. We provide updates on the job market, modest gross domestic product (GDP) growth, the Personal Consumption Expenditures price index and an uptick in inflation, new tax policies and the National Deficit, and what the Federal Reserve might be thinking for the rest of this year and beyond (notably, the long-lasting implications of the potential loss of safe haven status in U.S. Treasury bonds). Speakers:Brian Pietrangelo, Managing Director of Investment StrategyGeorge Mateyo, Chief Investment OfficerRajeev Sharma, Managing Director of Fixed IncomeSean Poe, Director of Multi-Strategy Research 01:50 – Weekly unemployment claims were 240,000, an increase of 14,000 from the previous week's claims 02:22 – The second estimate for first quarter of 2025 GDP came in at -0.2%, a minor improvement from the advance estimate of -0.3%. Contributing factors were reduced consumer spending offset by investment increases. 02:55 – In inflation news, the Personal Consumption Expenditures price index (Core PCE) came in at a 2.5% increase year-over-year; this was the second month of slower results but still above the Fed's goal of 2.0%. Goods inflation continues to be deflationary, while Services inflation remains higher than desired. 05:19 – The trade war is not over as talks continue to evolve in unpredictable ways, exacerbating some of the swing we've seen in market behavior. Legal challenges to the imposition of President Trump's tariffs further complicate global trade deals, suggesting that a measured and diversified approach to portfolio management is a sound course of action. 08:00 – The U.S. annual deficit sits at $1.9 trillion. Proposed tax cuts from the House of Representative would add as much as $2.6 trillion in borrowing, making a potential recession more challenging to manage. This, in addition to the recent downgrades of the U.S. Sovereign debt, may have negative effects on U.S. Treasuries. 09:38 – Minutes from the Fed's May Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting were released this week. Compounding uncertainties have immobilized the Fed from making clear decisions on monetary policy. Two rate cuts are expected for the remainder of 2025, with the first cut potentially at the September FOMC meeting. 12:00 – The 10-year Treasury bond note yield is below 4.5%, which is well below this year's previous peak, though the bond market is still less volatile than equities in times of economic and earnings uncertainty. Long-term investors are seeking to lock in yields of 5% or more and are considering padding their portfolios with high-quality corporate credit to mitigate future economic fluctuations. 14:40 – A primer on private equity: What it is, and what it looks like today. How might it fit into your investment strategy? We also provide an explanation of private equity secondaries investments and how they can be used. 17:09 – The private equity secondary market is projected to experience a 20%-25% increase in the market from 2024 and would then account for about a third of all private equity transaction value. Newsworthy recent examples of Harvard University and Yale University selling a portion of their private equity holdings to secondaries funds to free up liquidity in anticipation of an increased tax burden and future legal challenges. Additional ResourcesJoin us on June 11 for our Midyear Investment UpdateKey Questions | Key Private Bank Subscribe to our Key Wealth Insights newsletterWeekly Investment Brief Follow us on LinkedIn

In this episode of Occupied Thoughts, FMEP Fellow Peter Beinart speaks with Dr. Feroze Sidhwa, who recently returned from spending the month of March, 2025, in Gaza as a trauma and critical care surgeon. The March trip was Feroze's second medical mission to Gaza in the last year. Peter and Feroze discuss why children in Gaza are shot in the head, why Gaza's medical workers expect to die, and what it's like to try to bring medical supplies into Gaza. Dr. Feroze Sidhwa is a general, trauma, and critical care surgeon in California. He is also a humanitarian surgeon, having worked most extensively in Palestine, but also in Ukraine, Haiti, Zimbabwe, and Burkina Faso. He most recently volunteered at the European Hospital in Khan Younis, Gaza from March 25-April 8, 2024 with the World Health Organization, and again from March 3-April 1, 2025 with American NGO MedGlobal. Feroze has written and spoken extensively about surgical humanitarian work, the United States' role in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and the political consequences of medical relief work. He approaches the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as a secular American and as a humanitarian physician. Feroze can be followed on Twitter/X @FerozeSidhwa and Instagram/Threads @FSidhwa. Peter Beinart is a Non-Resident Fellow at the Foundation for Middle East Peace. He is also a Professor of Journalism and Political Science at the City University of New York, a Contributing opinion writer at the New York Times, an Editor-at-Large at Jewish Currents, and an MSNBC Political Commentator. His newest book (published 2025) is Being Jewish After the Destruction of Gaza: A Reckoning.

Today, we're diving into the ever-relevant topic of burnout, which has become a pervasive issue for many people. I want to unpack how personal traits such as perfectionism, people-pleasing tendencies, and unrealistic self-expectations, can inadvertently contribute to our own risk of burnout. Of course there are external pressures from our workplaces; but it's important to look at how we interact with those pressures and the stories we're tell ourselves that are contributing to our chronic stress. We'll discuss the signs of burnout, the different forms it can take, and how it can manifest not just in our jobs, but in roles like parenting and caregiving. Tune in to reflect on your own unhelpful patterns, and to consider how you might take proactive steps to help you manage stress better and nurture your well-being.Takeaways:Burnout is a consequence of unresolved stress, resulting in feelings of exhaustion and detachment. It's crucial to recognise the personal traits that may contribute to chronic stress and burnout. Perfectionism, people-pleasing, imposter syndrome and undiagnosed neurodivergence can significantly increase your risk of burnout. Understanding your own limits and setting realistic expectations can help prevent the downward spiral into burnout. Beyond Confident opening in July.

On this episode of The Defense Unicorns Podcast, host Rebecca Lively sits down with Brandt Keller, software engineer and CNCF ambassador, to explore what happens when a former Marine brings his frontline mindset to DevSecOps. Brandt's story is one of relentless problem-solving, especially in disconnected, air-gapped environments where “cloud-native” has to mean something entirely different.Brandt unpacks how open source can be both a lifeline and a liability in government systems, and why just consuming it isn't enough—real security means showing up, contributing, and understanding what's under the hood. He shares his perspective on trust, transparency, and why the U.S. government's lack of contribution to critical tools like Kubernetes might be the real risk. The conversation also explores the cultural shift required to embrace open ecosystems in highly regulated spaces.From debates over supply chain security and SBOMs to the practical challenges of deploying software in classified settings, this episode offers a grounded, behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to build tools that truly work at the tactical edge. Key Quote:“ When you try to take something that is not airgap friendly and make it airgap friendly, you quickly find out that you made a lot of assumptions about how this thing would be used and where, and kind of the underlying infrastructure and when you try to work back for them that it's, it, it's difficult. It's not something you can't overcome. It's not insurmountable, but it is difficult. But you also find out that there's just a lot of areas for. Resiliency that you didn't also plan for, that applied to connected environments. And so this is where I've kind of been diving into this more and more lately to try and to describe, and build some knowledge to around why this is important for kind of building any application today. It may be a little niche to go to the extreme of air gap, but I believe like there's still some of these underlying cloud native fundamentals that is like, if you start with the ability for knowing how your architecture adapts to varying levels of connectivity, then you're probably building a stronger, more resilient system overall.”Brandt KellerTime Stamps:(03:19) The Defense Sector and Career Path(06:15) Becoming a Cloud Native Computing Foundation Ambassador(09:48) Open Source Contributions and the Challenges(14:14) Government and the lack of Open Source(32:53) Kubernetes and Foreign Contributions(37:24) The Importance of Air Gap in Cloud Native Tools(53:16) Lightning Round Links:Connect with Brandt KellerConnect with Rebecca LivelyLearn More About Defense Unicorns

Episode Summary Afreenish Amir, Ph.D., Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Project Director at the National Institute of Health in Pakistan, highlights significant increases in extensively drug-resistant typhoid and cholera cases in Pakistan and discusses local factors driving AMR in Asia. She describes the development and implementation of a National Action Plan to combat AMR in a developing country, emphasizing the importance of rational antimicrobial use, surveillance and infection control practice. Ashley's Biggest Takeaways AMR is a global and One Health issue. Pakistan has a huge disease burden of AMR. Contributing factors include, but are not limited to, overcrowding, lack of infection control practices, poor waste management practices and over-the-counter prescription practices. Promoting the rational use of antimicrobials is imperative at all levels—from tertiary care to primary care practitioners. Typhoid and cholera are high-burden infections in Pakistan, with typhoid being a year-round issue and cholera being seasonal. A holistic approach, involving various sectors and disciplines, is necessary in order to address the global AMR threat. Amir highlights the need for better communication and collaboration to bridge gaps and build trust between different organizations. Featured Quotes: I've been working at the National Institutes of Health for the last 7 years now. So, I've been engaged in the development and the implementation of the national action plan on AMR, and that gave me the opportunity to explore the work in the field of antimicrobial resistance. Reality of AMR in Pakistan [Pakistan] is an LMIC, and we have a huge disease burden of antimicrobial resistance in the country right now. A few years back, there was a situational analysis conducted, and that has shown that there is presence of a large number of resistant pathogens within the country. And National Institutes of Health, they have started a very standardized surveillance program based upon the global antimicrobial use and surveillance system back in 2017. And [those datasets have] generated good evidence about the basic statistics of AMR within the country. So, for example, if I talk about the extensively drug-resistant typhoid, typhoid is very much prevalent in the country. Our data shows that in 2017 there were 18% MDR typhoid cases through the surveillance data. And in 2021 it was like 60%. So that has shown that how the resistance has increased a lot. A number of challenges are associated with this kind of a thing, overcrowded hospitals, poor infection prevention and control (IPC) measures. So, there is AMR within the country—there's a huge burden—and we are trying to look for the better solutions.  Local Factors Driving AMR Bacteria, they do not know the borders. We have a close connection with the other Asian countries, and we have a long border connected with the 2 big countries, which are Afghanistan and India and Bangladesh and China. So, we see that it's not limited to 1 area. It's not regional. It's also a history of travel. When the people travel from one area to the other, they carry the pathogen as a colonizer or as a carrier, and they can infect [other] people. So, it's really connected, and it's really alarming as well. You never know how the disease is transmitted, and we have the biggest example of COVID—how things have spread from 1 country to the other, and how it has resulted in a massive pandemic. AMR is similar. We have seen that it's not limited to 1 region. We are part of this global community, and we are contributing somehow to the problem. First, I'll talk about the health care infrastructure. We do have the capacities in the hospitals, but still, there's a huge population. Pakistan is a thickly populated country. It's a population of around 241 million. And with the increasing population, we see that the infrastructure has not developed this much. So now the existing hospitals are overcrowded, and this has led to poor infection control practices within the hospitals. The staff is not there. In fact, ID consultants are not available in all the hospitals. Infection control nurses are not available in all the hospitals. So, this is one of the main areas that we see, that there is a big challenge. The other thing that can contribute is the poor waste management practices. Some of the hospitals—private and public sectors—they are following the waste management guidelines—even the laboratories. But many of the hospitals are not following the guidelines. And you know that AMR is under one health. So, whatever waste comes from the hospital eventually goes to the environment, and then from there to the animal sector and to the human sector. [Another big] problem that we are seeing is the over-the-counter prescription of antimicrobials. There is no regulation available in the country right now to control the over-the-counter prescription of antibiotics. They are easily available. People are taking the antibiotics without a prescription from the doctors, and the pharmacist is giving the patients any kind of medicine. And either it is effective/not effective, it's a falsified, low-quality antibiotic for how long in duration antibiotic should be taken. So, there are multiple of things or reasons that we see behind this issue of AMR. Rational Use of Antimicrobials It is a complex process how we manage this thing, but what we are closely looking at in the country right now is that we promote the rational use of antimicrobials at all levels—not only at the tertiary care levels, but also at the general practitioner level. They are the first point of contact for the patients, with the doctors, with the clinicians. So, at this point, I think the empirical treatment needs to be defined, and they need to understand the importance of this, their local antibiograms, what are the local trends? What are the patterns? And they need to prescribe according to those patterns. And very recently, the AWaRE classification of WHO, that is a big, big support in identifying the rational use of antimicrobials—Access, Watch and Reserve list—that should be propagated and that should be understood by all the general practitioners. And again, I must say that it's all connected with the regulations. There should be close monitoring of all the antibiotic prescriptions, and that can help to control the issue of AMR. National Action Plan on AMR So, when I joined NIH, the National Election plan had already been developed. It was back in 2017, and we have a good senior hierarchy who has been working on it very closely for a long period of time. So, the Global Action Plan on AMR, that has been our guiding document for the development of the national action plan on AMR, and we are following the 5 strategic objectives proposed in the global action plan. The five areas included: The promotion of advocacy and awareness in the community and health care professionals. To generate evidence through the data, through the surveillance systems. Generation of support toward infection prevention and control services IPC. Promoting the use of antimicrobials both in the human sector and the animal sector, but under the concept of stewardship, antimicrobial consumption and utilization. Invest in the research and vaccine and development. So, these are some of the guiding principles for us to develop the National Action Plan, and it has already been developed. And it's a very comprehensive approach, I must say. And our institute has started working on it, basically towards recreating awareness and advocacy. And we have been successful in creating advocacy and awareness at a mass level. Surveillance We have a network of Sentinel surveillance laboratories engaged with us, and they are sharing the data with NIH on a regular basis, and this is helping NIH to understand the basic trends on AMR and what is happening. And eventually we plan to go towards this case-based surveillance as well, but this is definitely going to take some time because to make people understand the importance of surveillance, this is the first thing. And very recently, the Institute and country has started working towards the hospital acquired infection surveillance as well. So, this is a much-needed approach, because the lab and the hospital go hand in hand, like whatever is happening in the lab, they eventually reach the patients who are in the hospitals. Wastewater surveillance is the key. You are very right. Our institute has done some of the work toward typhoid and cholera wastewater surveillance, and we were trying to identify the sources where we are getting these kinds of pathogens. These are all enteric pathogens. They are the key source for the infection. And for the wastewater surveillance mechanism, we can say that we have to engage multiple stakeholders in this development process. It's not only the laboratory people at NIH, but we need to have a good epidemiologist. We need to have all the water agencies, like the public health engineering departments, the PCRWR, the environmental protection agencies who are working with all these wastewater sites. So, we need to connect with them to make a good platform and to make this program in a more robust fashion. Pathogens and Disease Burdon For cholera and typhoid within Pakistan, I must say these are the high burden infections or diseases that we are seeing. For typhoid, the burden is quite high. We have seen a transition from the multidrug-resistant pathogens to the extensively drug-resistant pathogens, which now we are left with only azithromycin and the carbapenems. So, the burden is high. And when we talk about cholera, it is present in the country, but many of the times it is seasonal. It comes in during the time of the small zone rains and during the time of floods. So, every year, during this time, there are certain outbreaks that we have seen in different areas of the country. So, both diseases are there, but typhoid is like all year long—we see number of cases coming up—and for cholera, it's mainly seasonal. Capacity Building and ASM's Global Public Health Programs Capacity building is a key to everything, I must say, [whether] you talk about the training or development of materials. I've been engaged with ASM for quite some time. I worked to develop a [One Health] poster in the local language to create awareness about zoonotic diseases. So, we have targeted the 6 zoonotic diseases, including the anthrax, including the Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever and influenza. And we have generated a very user-friendly kind of layout in the local language, trying to teach people about the source of transmission. What are the routes of transmission, if we talk about the CCHF? And then how this can be prevented. So, this was one approach. And then I was engaged with the development of the Learnamr.com. This is online platform with 15 different e-modules within it, and we have covered different aspects—talking about the basic bacteriology toward the advanced, standardized methods, and we have talked about the national and global strategies [to combat] AMR, One Health aspects of AMR, vaccines. So, it's a huge platform, and I'm really thankful to ASM for supporting the program for development. And it's an online module. I have seen that there are around more than 500 subscribers to this program right now, and people are learning, and they are giving good feedback to the program as well. We keep on improving ourselves, but the good thing is that people are learning, and they are able to understand the basic concepts on AMR.

Liverpool FC just won the English Premier League. Contributing to their 5-1 victory over Tottenham to seal the title was Mohamed Salah, the Egyptian superstar who is the league's top scorer in the 2024-5 season. We're revisiting an episode that we first ran in December 2022 about research which used Salah to demonstrate how a celebrity footballer who is openly Muslim can help to reduce Islamophobia. Salma Mousa, now an assistant professor of political science at UCLA in the US, talks to us about her research. This episode was produced and written by Gemma Ware, with sound design by Eloise Stevens. Our other producers are Mend Mariwany and Katie Flood. Our theme music is by Neeta Sarl. More details can be found in an article that accompanied the original episode.

Contributing writer Jake Fogleman and I unpack federal lobbying data from the first quarter of 2025, which show that gun-rights groups have been far outspending gun-control advocates on the Hill. We also cover new monthly gun sales data showing a continued slump for the industry. Finally, we discuss a new gun industry liability shield signed into law in Tennessee before wrapping up with some stories from outside The Reload.

The Power of SEO in Business: How to Use SEO to Build Visibility, Trust, and Efficiency SEO is not just about getting your website to rank on Google—it's about building a brand resume that shows you're a legitimate, trustworthy business. When you use SEO to optimize your business, you create an online presence that appears consistently across search results, helping potential clients see your brand multiple times and in various ways. This builds credibility, familiarity, and trust before they even click. What Is a Brand Resume—and Why It Matters for SEO A strong SEO strategy builds what you can think of as a brand resume—a digital footprint that proves you're a legitimate, professional business. When someone Googles your name or company, do they see just a single link? Or do they find your website, blog posts, podcast features, social media profiles, YouTube videos, and forum contributions all pointing to the same brand voice and value? That kind of visibility across channels creates an impression that you are established and credible. When you use SEO to optimize your business presence across platforms, you tell search engines—and potential clients—that you are not a one-off post or account. You're a brand worth trusting. You Don't Need to Stretch Yourself Too Thin You may have been told that every platform needs unique content, which can lead to burnout. The good news is you don't have to create something different for every platform. You can—and should—share the duplicate core content across all channels. Whether it's LinkedIn, Instagram, or your website, it's all about showing up consistently with a message that reflects your brand and value. This strategy doesn't just save you time—it helps you use SEO to optimize your business content in a way that builds authority and improves rankings. Reddit, Forums, and the New Word of Mouth Platforms like Reddit are goldmines for SEO-savvy business owners. Contributing to forums and threads where your target audience hangs out acts like digital word-of-mouth marketing. If you use SEO principles—like targeting keywords even in your replies and linking to helpful resources—you build authority with users and search engines.

 On this episode of All Bodies. All Foods., Ashley and Sam welcome guest Patrilie Hernandez to explore the eating disorder risk factor of food insecurity. According to the USDA, 13.5% of U.S. households reported experiencing food insecurity in 2023—a rise from 12.8% in 2022. Because food insecurity can contribute to the development of eating disorders, we felt it was essential to better understand this public health crisis in order to more effectively support those affected. It's important to recognize that individuals often do not have full control over whether they are food secure. Contributing factors can include income, access to community resources, housing location, knowledge of how to shop for and prepare food, and more. In this conversation, we unpack the systemic and personal contributors to food insecurity, how it intersects with eating disorders, and how individuals can advocate for and educate the systems around them.

April is National Distracted Driving Awareness Month. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates that more than 40,000 Americans died on U.S. roadways in 2023. We talk with TTI safety experts Emily Martin and Srinivas Geedipally about how distracted driving can lead to tragedy and what we can do, as drivers and passengers, to make our travels safer for everyone.

In this episode, we discuss the gut-immune axis and Small Intestinal Fungal Overgrowth (SIFO), with a mechanistic focus on immune activation and epithelial barrier disruption. We detail contributing factors to and symptoms of SIFO. We further discuss the anatomical positioning and immunological functions of mast cells within the lamina propria, highlighting mast cell activation syndrome, while detailing how SIFO and SIBO can serve as upstream triggers for mast cell activation.Topics:1. The Gut-Immune Axis and Mast Cells - The intestinal epithelium forms the innermost selective barrier, coated in a protective mucus layer.- Immediately beneath lies the lamina propria, rich in immune cells including mast cells. 2. Mast Cells in the Lamina Propria - Mast cells are positioned near nerves, capillaries, lymphatics, and epithelial cells within the lamina propria.- Their anatomical location enables rapid immune surveillance and inflammatory response.- Mast cell granules store histamine and more. 3. Mast Cell Mediators - Histamine: Biogenic amine, inflammatory signaling.- Tryptase: A serine protease.- Cytokines and lipid mediators also released upon activation. 4. Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) - Systemic: skin, respiratory tract, cardiovascular system, nervous system, and more.- The gastrointestinal tract.- Common triggers for mast cell activation. 5. Transition to Small Intestinal Fungal Overgrowth (SIFO) - Overgrowth of fungal organisms, often candida species, within the small intestine.- Contributing factors including hypochlorhydria, slowed motility, immune suppression, disrupted bacterial populations.- Overlap: SIFO, SIBO  6. Hypochlorhydria and the Stomach's Defense Role - Parietal cells secrete hydrochloric acid (HCl) and intrinsic factor.- HCl denatures proteins and sterilizes ingested pathogens.- Chief cells secrete pepsinogen, which becomes pepsin in acidic conditions to digest proteins.- Consequences of Reduced Gastric Acidity  7. The Role of Intestinal Motility - Enteric nervous system (ENS), myenteric and submucosal plexuses.- Coordinated contractions preventing stasis and microbial overgrowth. 8. Common Symptoms of SIFO and clinical overlap with SIBO 9. Candida and Fungal Pathophysiology in the Gut - Yeast form, regulated by microbial competition and immune defenses.- Hyphal transformation.- Degrade the mucus layer, disrupt epithelial integrity, trigger inflammation. 10. Secretory IgA and Mucosal Defense - Chronic stress, immune dysfunction, dysbiosis can lower sIgA levels and weaken mucosal immunity. 11. SIFO, SIBO, and Mast Cell Activation  12.

Contributing writer Jake Fogleman and I talk about the Supreme Court's decision to reject Minnesota's appeal of an Eighth Circuit decision striking down its age limit for carry permits, effectively clearing the way for young adults to carry guns in the state. We also talk about a new bill signed into law in Iowa this week that accomplishes the same thing for that state's residents. We then cover a new Fox poll showing more people disapprove of President Trump's handling of gun policy than approve in his first 100 days back in office. Finally, we wrap up with an update on my upcoming trip down to Atlanta to cover the NRA's annual meeting.

When protesters converged this past weekend across America, they seized on two central villains: Donald Trump and Elon Musk. On this episode, host and Vanity Fair editor-in-chief Radhika Jones, along with executive editor Claire Howorth and Hive editor Michael Calderone, discuss how perceptions of Musk have radically shifted from rocket-building billionaire to government hatchet man and right-wing troll. Contributing editor Zoe Bernard joins the show to discuss how Musk's ethos reflects Silicon Valley and whether his more libertarian views on tariffs could hasten his exit from Washington.  Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices
