Sometimes you just gotta get away, and that's what Kris and Tara did during their unannounced break (sorry about that). But they're back now, and ready to report on where they've been, what they've done and, perhaps most importantly, what they recommend. Also, Tara cheats this week. Instead of one official recommendation (which is the entire point of this podcast) Tara comes back from vacation with two. Buckle up, folks. Chaos reigns! Official Recommendations From Kris: The Four Seasons (Netflix) Kris's official recommendation this week is the Netflix series The Four Seasons. The show revolves around three couples who vacation together four times a year (each season) and what happens when one of the couples breaks up. Kris says this has it all, the funny moments and the sad, and once she started, she couldn't put it down. From Tara: The Princess Match by Clare Lydon Tara's first recommendation this week is The Princess Match by Clare Lydon. It's a slow burn(ish), high romantic tension story between an out-and-proud athlete and an in-the-closet princess who wants to risk it all for her first chance at true happiness. Tara loved this so much she read it twice and she says it's her favourite of Lydon's books. From Tara: Discovering Nicola by Clare Ashton Tara's second recommendation this week is Discovering Nicola by Clare Ashton, an enemies-to-lovers, ice queen romance, with two women in their 50s embracing a same-sex relationship for the first time. Tara said the chemistry between the leads is incredible and this book ruined her in the best way. Go get it!

Oliver Burkeman's latest book, "Meditations for Mortals: Four Weeks to Embrace Your Limitations and Make Time for What Counts," is a guide to embracing what he calls the imperfect life. It's the realization that you're never going to sort your life out. So instead of attempting that futile task day after day and viewing your limitations as a human as obstacles to a meaningful life, you embrace them. In our conversation, Oliver and I dig into some common misconceptions about the human condition, why existing in the modern world asks so much of us, and how and why we must take action admist uncertainty.

The provided text, based on a quote attributed to Nelson Mandela, emphasizes that the true value of a life lies not in personal achievements or possessions, but in the positive impact made on others. It suggests that significance is found in everyday interactions, such as kindness, being present, and supporting those around us. The source argues that lifting others up and making a difference, however small, creates a lasting and meaningful legacy, encouraging viewers to focus on contributing positively to the lives of others rather than solely on self-interest. Ultimately, it champions the idea that a life that truly "counts" is one dedicated to being a source of light and support for others.The video used to spawn this conversation by Google's NotebookLM is available at: https://youtu.be/6WC9SWpvaRM

Canada Council director Michelle Chawla says Canadian decision-makers need to acknowledge that the arts have a vital role to play in these uncertain times. In response to the threats of annexation by the U.S. and the tariffs aimed at weakening the Canadian economy, there has been a major rise in nationalistic cultural expression. Musicologist Rosheeka Parahoo says that when it comes to radio play, funding and recognition, the promise of diverse Canadian music has seldom matched the reality. And that needs to change.

And to lighten things up, the two go head-to-head on one of the most important debates of our time: which Frito's flavour reigns supreme? The Real Network

I love idioms, or, as they say on Jeopardy, quotable quotes. I'm especially fascinated with learning the origins of these quotes. While doing some research yesterday, I stumbled upon one of my favorites: "close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades." I've heard it for decades and used it myself numerous times. But I never knew the origin until yesterday. I expected the origins to involve war in some way. But I wasn't even close. The origin of this quote is a baseball legend and only dates back to 1973. I'm dumbfounded. I could swear I've been using it longer than 50 years...

Sustainability Now - exploring technologies and paradigms to shape a world that works
A Sustainability Now Interview with Josh Farley What if our metrics for economic health are simply upside down? How can a “healthy” economy—measured by rising GDP—coexist with ecological collapse, mental health crises, and widening inequality? Josh Farley, ecological economist, isn't just rethinking economics—he's redesigning it. A professor at the University of Vermont and Fellow at the Gund Institute for Environment, his work bridges economics, ethics, and ecology, challenging the very foundation of how we think about money, nature, and our collective future. With clarity and a sharp eye for absurdity, Farley unpacks the dangerous delusion of GDP as a measure of well-being—revealing how our systems reward depletion and call it growth, while sidelining equity, health, and ecological integrity. Instead, he offers a new paradigm: one that prioritizes regeneration over extraction and collective stewardship over unchecked consumption. It's not just a critique—it's a grounded, hopeful invitation to redesign economics for a world that actually works. If you've ever sensed that the numbers aren't telling the whole story—this conversation is the deeper math you've been waiting for.

In this episode of The Pulling Curls Podcast, Hilary Erickson, RN, is joined by Kimberly Iceberg from Count the Kicks to answer common questions about tracking your baby's movements during pregnancy. They discuss why kick counts matter, how to use the Count the Kicks app, what to do if you notice changes in your baby's movement, and how kick counting can give you peace of mind while supporting stillbirth prevention. The episode also covers tips for handling complications like an anterior placenta and offers advice for communicating concerns with your healthcare provider. Big thanks to our sponsor The Count the Kicks App -- It is free and available in 20+ languages. Start using daily at 28 weeks or 26 weeks if high-risk or pregnant with multiples. It makes doing a daily kick count easy. 77% of app users report that using the app helped decrease their anxiety about the well-being of their baby. 84% said it helped to increase their feelings of bonding. The app can be a great way to involve your partner or your baby's older siblings. Download the app here: https://countthekicks.org/download-app/ Today's guest is Kimberly Isburg. She is the Communications Director for Healthy Birth Day, Inc., the nonprofit that created the Count the Kicks stillbirth prevention program. She is a mom of two boys and a firm believer in the power of Count the Kicks. She's on a mission to make sure all expectant parents know about kick counting in the third trimester of pregnancy.

The Count the Kicks app is highlighted as a free, easy-to-use tool available in over 20 languages, designed to help expectant moms track their baby's movement and identify normal patterns. Kick counting involves tracking any fetal movement (kicks, rolls, pokes, jabs, swishes) except hiccups, focusing on pattern consistency over time rather than comparing to a fixed standard like "10 kicks in 2 hours." It's recommended to begin daily kick counts at the start of the third trimester (around 26–28 weeks), which is when babies typically establish a recognizable movement pattern. Every baby—and pregnancy—is different; the key is to learn what's normal for your individual baby instead of comparing to others or strict timeframes. Count the Kicks app allows for note-taking, monitoring movement strength, and creating a graph for clear visualization of your baby's movement history—helpful for discussing with healthcare providers. Changes in a baby's movement pattern (either slower or faster) should always be reported to a healthcare provider, as they can indicate potential problems with either baby or mom's health. Kick counts are proven to help reduce stillbirth rates, with research cited showing a 32% drop in Iowa after the practice was widely encouraged with Count the Kicks. Hilary and Kimberly address common concerns such as anxiety related to kick counts, babies described as "lazy," and complications like an anterior placenta, encouraging open communication with providers. Both emphasize kick counting as an empowering, bonding daily ritual—useful not only for peace of mind but as a practical safeguard for mom and baby, and encourage listeners to download the app and make daily tracking part of their routine.

Send us a textHave you ever stopped to think about what's really coming out of your faucets? This week on Take It To The Board, host Donna DiMaggio Berger sits down with Ed Padula of Quality Water Consultants to uncover the hidden truths about the water we drink, cook with, and bathe in every day. You might be surprised by what's flowing through your community's pipes and what is contributing to the inevitable water leaks in multifamily buildings.Donna and Ed's conversation reveals how municipal water treatment has changed dramatically over the years, with many cities switching from chlorine to chloramines—a combination that addresses one health concern but creates new problems with corrosion, water color, and infrastructure damage. As they explain, what municipalities consider "safe" water often still contains chemicals that affect both human health and building systems.The distinction between water softening and purification emerges as a critical misunderstanding for many associations. While softening removes calcium and magnesium to prevent spotting and extend appliance life, it doesn't address chemical contaminants or color issues. Perhaps most alarming is how water quality accelerates the deterioration of aging pipes in multifamily buildings. The corrosiveness of chloramines causes pipes to deteriorate faster, leading to more frequent leaks and eventually requiring expensive re-piping projects. Simultaneously, deteriorating pipes leach contaminants back into water, creating a vicious cycle.Ready to take a deep dive into what's flowing through your community's pipes? Listen now and, hopefully, start a much needed conversation for your board.Conversation Highlights Include:Why community associations should prioritize water quality—even if no issues have been reportedWater purification considerations for multifamily buildingsCommon—and often overlooked—water quality issues in condos, HOAs, and co-opsThe impact of aging pipes, boilers, and water systems on water quality in older buildingsHow water quality affects the lifespan of plumbing and piping systemsThe link between water quality and leaksUnderstanding the difference between filtration systems and softener systemsRoutine testing and inspections community associations should conductThe connection between poor water quality and health risksEarly warning signs of deteriorating water qualityWhat a community's emergency plan should include in the event of water contaminationRelated Links:Online Class: Anatomy of a Water Leak

Global influence, monetization power, and cultural reach. Are you one of the millions of Americans trying to crack the creator code? Do you dream of being the next Mr. Beast, heir to the YouTube throne? On this week's Some Future Day, I sit down with Bloomberg's Aisha Counts, one of the sharpest minds covering the $500 billion Creator Economy, from Mr. Beast's chocolate empire to Ben Stiller's healthy soda venture, and even Dave Portnoy's surprising offer from the United States Department of Commerce. Aisha says today's creators aren't just creating content. They're building brands and they're reinventing Hollywood. We go deep on deepfakes, AI clones, and why Joe Rogan and Minecraft might be the future of global news and entertainment. The entire ecosystem is evolving.

Bible Reading: Matthew 25:14-21Hunter and his dad chose a spot in the backyard to set up the rain gauge Hunter had made at school. He was proud of the hollow tube and its funnel-like top. "This is the best school project ever," he said. "I hope it rains soon!" "Hunter," Mom said when he came inside, "Mr. Blake isn't feeling well, and he's afraid his garbage cans might roll out into the street if they stay in his driveway. Would you go bring in his trash cans?""Okay," said Hunter, and he headed out the door. He returned a few minutes later and sighed heavily. "What's wrong?" asked Mom. "Mr. Blake seems to be sick a lot," said Hunter. "And I know he's sad about losing his wife. I wish I could do something more to help him. When I brought his trash cans in, I noticed paint peeling off his house. I wish I could paint his house for him!" A timer beeped, and Mom pulled brownies from the oven. "Well, you may not be able to paint his house, but you can run some of these over to Mr. Blake. That'll cheer him up.""Okay. But it'd be cool to do something big instead of just this little stuff." Mom smiled at him. "I know it may not seem like much, but remember the Bible says that we serve Jesus by serving others. By helping Mr. Blake--even in small ways--you're showing him the love of Jesus."Later that day, it began to sprinkle, so Hunter and his parents went to check his rain gauge. "It's collecting water!" Hunter said."Good," said Dad. "But this is a very light rainfall. It will take a lot more rain than this to really measure water in your gauge.""Maybe," said Hunter. "But look! A little water is running into it--and every drop counts! The water will build up over time.""You're right," Mom said. "Every little bit does count, and you know what? Every little thing you do for Jesus counts too. No matter how small or insignificant it may seem.""You mean like the stuff I do to help Mr. Blake?" asked Hunter."Yes," said Mom. "Jesus can use it to show him a big picture of God's love."–Nance E. KeyesHow About You?Do you think the small things you do for others don't amount to much? Do you wish you could do something big? The Bible tells us Jesus came down from heaven to serve us by dying for our sins, and He wants us to serve others--even when it doesn't seem like much to us. He uses the small things we say and do to show people how much He loves them. Serve Jesus by serving others.Today's Key Verse:The Son of Man [Jesus] did not come to be served, but to serve. (NKJV) (Mark 10:45)Today's Key Thought:Serving others shows them God's love
Maori have been protesting in large numbers, in a 9-day hikoi or march of defiance, walking from the top of New Zealand down to the capital Wellington, joined by non-Maori supporters too. They're demonstrating against the current right-of-centre New Zealand government's moves to abolish certain Maori-specific rights and privileges, that the previous centre-left government had set up to help combat Maori disadvantage. For example, a Maori Health Authority had tried to tackle health inequalities that mean Maori live seven years less than other New Zealanders. Maori also come bottom in statistics for employment, housing and education, but are overrepresented in prison.Now a law proposal about the principles of the 1840 Treaty of Waitangi, New Zealand's founding document, would do away with what has been a form of affirmative action, and instead treat everyone the same, regardless of heritage.Some feel this is necessary to achieve proper equality. Others feel that Maori progress will be undone and inequality entrenched.
