This week, we’ll hear from Tauren Wells, acclaimed recording artist and lead pastor of Church of Whitestone in Austin, Texas. Raised in Battle Creek, Michigan, Tauren’s early life was steeped in music and shaped by his experiences at a small church and the guidance of a caring youth pastor. In this conversation, Tauren reflects on the things that can steal our focus, the quiet dangers of success, and what it means to live a truly joyful life. Later in the episode, we’ll hear from Out of Eden, the ground-breaking sister trio who burst onto the scene in the nineties and helped redefine contemporary Christian music. From their early beginnings singing harmonies and choreographing dances in their living room to performing on big stages in nationwide tours, they navigated the pitfalls of growing up in the spotlight with grace beyond their years. Now, thirty years later, they’re reuniting their voices to offer hope to a new generation.

And I think that’s when our heart can be thrown upside down and all we ever feel is anxiety, fear, doubt, and despair, because we flip the beauty of the reality that we get to do life with God.” - Tauren Wells “There is a relentless joy that flows from being intentionally aware of [God’s] presence.” - Tauren Wells “Jesus preached the most important message on joy, and it was the first thing that He decided to talk about. How important to the heart of God must our happiness be just based on the priority of the message?” - Tauren Wells “Happiness and joy have nothing to do with what’s happening around you; it has everything to do with what is happening inside of you. Restoring that sense of gratitude for the ultimate price that was paid to unlock our freedom is so central to all of our lives as believers.” - Tauren Wells “We found a scripture in Genesis 2:10 that says, ‘A river flows out of Eden to water the garden.’ Once we read that, we knew that was our mission. We grew up in the church, we’ve always been plugged into the Word of God, and we really wanted to use that to minister to those who would be listening to our music.” - Andrea Kimmey-Baca of Out of Eden “I really do believe that because of our grounding in the Word of God and having a community of believers surrounding us, that we were able to ride the harder waves and talk out the things that were more confusing to us.” - Danielle Kimmey of Out of Eden “We just wanted to honor the fans who kept our name and our legacy and our music alive.” - Danielle Kimmey of Out of Eden “We were in an industry that wasn’t really built for our style of music. I think that presented a lot of challenges for us, and gave us the opportunity to not only overcome those challenges, but also have the right heart posture.” - Lisa Kimmey of Out of Eden “For anyone who is going through these current times—we need hope, we need joy.” - Out of Eden ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!

In part 2 of a critical two-part series, Etienne Nichols and regulatory affairs expert Mike Drues explore the nuanced pathway of switching a medical device from prescription (Rx) to over-the-counter (OTC). This episode dives deep into what triggers a new submission, how usability testing and human factors play an expanded role for lay users, and the regulatory logic that guides these transitions. The conversation highlights the importance of aligning regulatory strategy with business goals, and offers practical insights on leveraging real-world evidence, understanding the limits of FDA databases, and optimizing pre-submission meetings.Key Timestamps02:10 – Starting from a cleared 510(k): Do you need a new submission for OTC?06:45 – Implications of removing the healthcare provider from the equation12:00 – Risk management: Expanding risk profiles when lay users are involved18:15 – When a 510(k) becomes a De Novo or PMA22:50 – Usability testing and the risk of user error in OTC devices31:20 – Clinical investigations and good clinical practices (GCPs)36:00 – Real-world evidence vs. real-world data—what's usable?41:30 – Using Pre-Subs effectively and what “quality data” really means47:10 – Labeling, cleaning, and UDI for OTC products53:40 – OTC software and digital health—when is it a regulated device?01:00:00 – Summary: Aligning regulatory logic with common sense and business strategyQuotes“With an OTC device, we are taking the healthcare professional totally, completely, and utterly out of the loop.”– Mike DruesThis quote encapsulates the core regulatory challenge in moving a device to OTC: every element, from labeling to usability, must assume zero clinical supervision.“If the clinical trial won't tell you anything you don't already know from good real-world evidence, why spend the time and money?”– Mike DruesA powerful argument for using well-documented real-world evidence over unnecessary trials—provided the data truly meets evidentiary standards.Top TakeawaysLabel Expansion ≠ Shortcut: Moving from prescription to OTC usually requires a new submission—especially when removing the healthcare provider introduces new risks.Usability Testing Is Critical: OTC usability studies must go beyond IFU comprehension to include risk of misuse, poor device selection, and user decision-making.Real-World Evidence Can Help—If It's Clean: Real-world data isn't always usable. FDA will expect reproducibility, traceability, and strong justifications.Labeling & Design Must Assume No Clinical Oversight: Cleaning procedures, warnings, and directions must all be validated for home use and layperson comprehension.Use Pre-Subs Wisely: Especially for label expansions or gray-area digital health tools, pre-subs provide critical alignment with FDA and prevent costly errors.References & ResourcesEtienne Nichols on LinkedInFDA Guidance on Real-World Evidence for Regulatory Decision-MakingGreenlight Guru Webinar: What is and Isn't a Regulated Medical Device (feat.

They explore how the common cold is defined, its massive economic impact, and why many popular OTC medications surprisingly lack scientific support. Dr. Latefi, co-founder of Applied Biological Laboratories, discusses her innovative approach to treating the common cold and why Biovanta is different from what's currently available. She also reveals the promising results from a recent randomized controlled trial and shares insights into her ongoing research in respiratory health.

In Part 1 of this two-part series, Etienne Nichols sits down with regulatory strategist Dr. Mike Drues to explore the nuanced differences between prescription (Rx) and over-the-counter (OTC) medical devices. They demystify key terms, regulatory classifications, and the growing trend of label expansions from Rx to OTC—highlighting real-world examples like CPAP machines and continuous glucose monitors (CGMs). This episode unpacks how intended users, environments, and risk tolerances shape device categorization, and why usability testing is far more complex than many realize. Whether you're developing a consumer health product or preparing a label expansion strategy, this is a must-listen for your regulatory roadmap.Key Timestamps[03:05] – What defines an OTC vs. prescription medical device?[06:45] – Market size of OTC devices and major product categories10:00 – Label expansion: moving from Rx to OTC status13:22 – The role of intended use environment in OTC classifications20:40 – Examples of devices in each FDA class that are OTC26:30 – Prescription devices used in home settings vs. true OTC31:15 – Characteristics that qualify devices for OTC status37:55 – Self-diagnosis, self-selection, and patient usability challenges43:00 – “Reasonably foreseeable misuse” and how to interpret guidance49:05 – Do you design for the lowest common denominator?56:10 – Representing diverse user populations in usability testing1:01:45 – Can a device launch OTC first? The case for wellness-to-Rx strategies1:08:15 – FDA's perspective on device safety: OTC vs. RxQuotes“The best regulatory professionals don't just know the rules—they know the exceptions.”Dr. Mike Drues reminds us that exceptional regulatory strategy lies in understanding nuance, especially in OTC classifications where edge cases can redefine categories.“Just because a device is used at home doesn't mean it's over the counter.”This insight challenges a common industry assumption, underscoring the importance of carefully defining intended use and environment early in development.Key TakeawaysOTC ≠ Low Risk by Default – Many Class II and even rare Class III devices can be OTC; it's more about intended user, use environment, and risk mitigation than class alone.Label Expansion Requires Strategy – Transitioning a device from prescription to OTC isn't just about removing a doctor's role—it may involve new usability studies, labeling changes, and potentially a 510(k) or de novo submission.Understand the "Intended Use Environment" – FDA doesn't just care about where the device is used, but how those environmental parameters (like light, humidity, and user training) affect safe operation.Usability Testing Must Reflect Real Users – For OTC devices, human factors validation must account for diverse educational backgrounds, not just ideal users.Don't Rely on Labels Alone – Whether or not users read (or understand) instructions must be tested, not assumed. Intuitive design is critical for OTC success.References & ResourcesEtienne Nichols on LinkedInGreenlight Guru Medical Device Classification Webinar with Mike Drues (for explanation on device classes)FDA Guidance: “Factors to Consider When Making Benefit-Risk Determinations in Medical Device...

Victor Davis Hanson joins Spectator TV to talk about the first 101 days of Donald Trump's second presidency, describing it as a bold counterrevolution against decades of cultural, political, and economic drift. He discusses Trump's sweeping agenda—from closing the border and challenging DEI initiatives to confronting foreign policy orthodoxy and trade imbalances—framing it as a populist backlash against elite institutions and progressive ideologies. Hanson highlights the deepening divide between America's coastal elites and its working class, and argues that Trump's unorthodox style and aggressive reforms are reshaping the political landscape in ways not seen in modern American history

Writer and podcaster Louise Perry returns to the pod to discuss her new book, A New Guide to Sex in the 21st Century, in which she takes ideas from her 2022 book The Case Against The Sexual Revolution and adapts them for teenagers and young adults. In this conversation, we pick up from where we left off in our 2022 interview, catching up on the evolving discourse around the winners and losers of the sexual revolution and trying to parse what's going with the “online right” and its Little House On The Prairie fantasies and overall fixation on homestead life. (News alert: People on the American frontier did suffer from depression. There was even a name for it: Prairie Madness.) We also talk about the 4B movement (what does “B” stand for anyway?), conservative matchmaking initiatives (has Louise crowdsourced her own yenta business?), and the need for a more interventionist approach to relationships and family life. Guest bio:  Louise Perry is a writer and activist based in London. This year, she co-founded a non-partisan feminist think tank called The Other Half, where she serves as Research Director. Her debut book is The Case Against the Sexual Revolution: A New Guide to Sex in the 21st Century.
