When stress, worry, and constant responsibilities leave you feeling overwhelmed, finding peace can seem impossible. A fast-paced, achievement-driven life can keep your mind racing and make it difficult to slow down, be present, and remember where true peace comes from. Jesus offers a better way. John 14:27 reminds us that the peace Jesus gives is different from what the world offers. We don’t have to live consumed by fear, productivity, or worry about what comes next. By intentionally pausing, becoming still, and turning our attention toward God, we create space to recognize His presence and trust His provision. Even a few quiet minutes each day can help us step away from the noise, surrender our concerns, and receive the peace Christ freely gives. Highlights Why slowing down can help us recognize God’s presence and peace How a fast-paced, achievement-driven culture can fuel stress and worry What Jesus means when He says, “my peace I give you” in John 14:27 Why worry can pull us toward self-dependency and away from trusting God How Jesus’ teaching about the birds of the air challenges us to trust God’s provision The spiritual value of being still, present, and attentive to God Practical ways to make intentional pauses for peace part of your daily routine Want more encouragement throughout your week?

Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” John 14:27 (NIV) It was a lovely summer day when I had the opportunity to take a day trip to meet up with a coworker in a city several hours from where I live. I had numerous reasons to rush through the event in order to get back to my desk and make up for the loss of “productivity” that evening. However, something prompted me to slow down and take advantage of the day away. After the lunch meeting with my colleague, she recommended a trail nearby that I might enjoy before I had to get back on the road. Nature is very much my “happy place” (especially if it includes forests or water), so when she pointed me in that direction, I went along readily. With each step down the cobblestone path, my soul breathed a little easier. Covered by a canopy of lush green trees, the atmosphere was almost magical. As my attention was focused on the beauty surrounding me, the weight of my worries seemed to slip away. I became more and more present in the moment rather than consumed with all the concerns of the past or the future. There really was nothing else to do but be… Be in the moment, be present, and be at peace. In our fast-paced, achievement-driven, bigger-is-always-better modern culture, many of us are burdened by overwhelm. Our minds race just as fast (if not faster) than the breakneck speed of life around us. As such, it is so easy for fear and stress to engulf our hearts and minds, drawing us deeper into self-dependency and further away from the one true source of our peace. Jesus reminds us in the scripture provided today that He has not only extended His peace to us, but that through Him we do not need to be afraid. “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” John 14:27 (NIV) In a very practical sense, Jesus also addresses our tendency towards worry in Matthew chapter six, when He illustrates how God provides for the needs of His creatures. “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?” Matt. 6:25-62 (NIV) If the Lord is willing and able to so abundantly care for the birds of the air, is He not also able to care well for us? Of course He is… Why then do we have so much trouble believing in this provision? Because we do not allow ourselves to pause long enough to look up and look out at the blessings all around us. We keep our eyes on the prize and our hands to plow, never stopping long enough to realize there is a better way. The way is Jesus (John 14:6). There is something so pure and so beautiful when we intentionally choose to stop… to be still. In the quietness of moments like the one I mentioned earlier, we recognize our Creator in the midst of His creation, we rediscover hope, we step into peace, and we surrender to Him who is able to provide all that we need in trust (Eph. 3:20-21). No matter how busy your life seems, or how many outside voices clamor for your attention, may I encourage you today to simply stop? Even if it is just for a few minutes each day, I strongly recommend you prioritize pausing for peace. There really is respite for the worried and weary. You simply have to be still. Intersecting Faith & Life: Do you struggle with worry or weariness? Do you feel like the demands of your job or other responsibilities don’t allow for seasons of rest and stillness? If so, how does today’s devotional offer you an alternative viewpoint? If you are willing, decide on one practice you can employ every day to set aside intentional time to pause and be still. Whether it is the first thing in the morning, an alarm you set as a reminder on your phone, or maybe even an agreed-upon time that you and a friend decide to commit to, I challenge you to prioritize incorporating some sort of pause throughout your day to stop everything and simply be… Be present, be still, and receive from God the gift of peace.

Having insurance doesn't necessarily mean your real estate investment is fully protected. In this episode of the Major League Real Estate Podcast, Tom and Nate discuss why market value, loan balance, insurance limits, and replacement costs can all be different, and why simply meeting your lender's insurance requirements may leave your equity exposed. They also explain what happens when insurance proceeds exceed the cost of rebuilding, when those proceeds can create a taxable gain, and how Section 1033 may allow investors to defer that gain following certain involuntary conversions. Plus, they cover insurance reviews, replacement costs, entity details, documentation, and why investors and syndicators should regularly make sure their coverage matches their actual risk.

Assa Gill didn't grow up dreaming about owning a machine shop. He came to Canada from a small village in Punjab, discovered CNC machining through a college course, and spent nearly nine years developing his skills on the shop floor. But the idea of building something of his own never went away. That idea became real when Assa bought his first CNC mill—before he had a building, a customer, or even a registered business. He started running jobs during evenings and weekends, gradually built a reputation, and eventually left his full-time job to focus on Rise Machine Works. Today, the shop has four CNC machines, an automated saw, its first full-time employee, and more growth on the horizon. But rapid growth came at a cost. After a year of long days and trying to handle everything himself, Assa realized that working harder wasn't going to build the company he wanted. Reading The E-Myth Revisited helped him begin documenting processes, defining roles, delegating work, and creating a business that wouldn't always depend entirely on him. In this episode, Assa shares the realities of starting with limited resources, earning customers through relationships and quick turnarounds, protecting cash flow, and building systems early. We also discuss the major opportunity that could take Rise into its next stage—and why machining ability alone isn't enough to create a sustainable machine shop.

Kennametal isn't showing up to IMTS with another wall of cutting tools. They're building a working custom motorcycle shop in the middle of the West Building—and they plan to cut chips, build a bike, and give that bike away before the show ends. Kim Wilson, Global Director of Marketing Communications, and Matt Jacques, Global Brand and Creative Services Manager at Kennametal, join us for a look behind the curtain at what it takes to build an IMTS experience this ambitious. The concept started taking shape during IMTS 2024 and grew through collaborations with custom motorcycle builder Carey Hart, machinist Satya Krause, artist Taylor Schultz, and several Kennametal customers. Inside the Next Level Shop, those customers will machine real components using Kennametal tooling—including parts destined for a customized Indian Sport Chief. Attendees can watch live demonstrations, bring application challenges directly to the Kennametal team, explore its digital machining capabilities, and enter to win the completed motorcycle. But this episode isn't only about building an unforgettable booth. It's about replacing the traditional trade-show pitch with real conversations. Kim and Matt explain how Kennametal is training its team to begin with a manufacturer's challenges—not a product catalog—and help customers uncover opportunities around productivity, tool life, applications, and digital machining. Visit Kennametal in Booth #431800 in the West Building, Level 3, to experience the Next Level Shop, see live machining demonstrations, and enter to win the custom Indian Sport Chief.

Pastor Greg starts a new sermon series, A Revival of Humility. In this first week's message, "I've Got You Covered," he shares a powerful story of redemption, showing that the only true covering for sin is the sacrifice of Jesus.
For the first 5 years of Aaron's coaching business he kept a running doc of every question a client ever asked. Hundreds. The single most asked question was a form of: "What actually counts as a training day?" Sounds simple, right up until you have to draw the line. And that line quietly decides whether you run one set of macros or two, and how you feed a surplus, a deficit, and everything in between.The definition we keep coming back to is dead simple: a training day is something you need to recover from. That alone drops a lot of the confusing stuff, big step count days, hikes, a long zone 2 ride, into a gray area, and the call there is about duration and cost, not a hard yes or no. A 30 minute spin is not a training day. A 90 minute zone 2 ride is. From there we run the whole thing through nutritional periodization, because the phase you are in changes the answer. Maintenance, surplus, and deficit each get an argument for splitting your training and non-training day macros, and an argument against.The deficit is where splitting really earns its keep, so that is where most of the episode lives: protecting training intensity as the number one lever for holding onto muscle, pulling food off rest days to hit your target rate of loss, and the psychology of dieting that no spreadsheet ever accounts for. That last part goes deep, from why hard training kills your appetite while rest days leave you bored and food focused, to the counterintuitive move of eating less on training days, to how going bland on purpose and cleaning up your Instagram feed can pull your hunger right back down. We wrap on the constrained energy model and step counts, HIIT versus low intensity cardio, why your wearable's calorie number lies but its trend does not, and the non-bodyweight reasons, stuff like metabolic flexibility and quality of life, that never make the spreadsheet but matter anyway.Covered in this episode:The one definition that cuts through it: a training day is something you need to recover fromWhy needing to recover from something every single day means you are probably doing too muchThe gray area of big step counts, hikes, and long zone 2 ridesWhy a 30 minute zone 2 is not a training day but a 90 minute ride isWhat happens if your expenditure is genuinely too high, and why body weight tells the truthUsing nutritional periodization to decide when to split training and non-training macrosMaintenance: absorbing meals out and protecting insulin sensitivity versus keeping it simpleWhy maintenance is the only phase where letting appetite drive the bus makes senseWhether biasing calories toward training or rest days matters if the weekly total is metSurplus: nutrient partitioning, GLUT4, and intra-workout carbohydrateLoading carbs pre and post workout so 8pm does not become a 100 gram carb problemMonitoring a surplus with photos, performance, and a well-timed DEXAThe build calculus: is the extra muscle from the last six pounds worth dieting it back offDeficit: protecting training intensity as the number one driver of muscle retentionPulling food from non-training days to hit a target rate of loss around 1% per weekBryan's opposite approach: eating less on training days to manage food focusWhy hard training blunts appetite for a couple of hours and rest days do notGoing bland on purpose, and how the Instagram algorithm quietly doubled the hungerThe constrained energy model, step counts, and where movement stops paying offHIIT versus low intensity cardio in a deficit, and why your leg days pay for itNon-bodyweight reasons to split: metabolic flexibility, fat digestion, and quality of lifeHigher carb versus higher fat by phase, and why a deficit favors higher carbWhy a wearable's calorie number is unreliable but its trend is accurate to youConsistent inaccuracy: pick the same food entry every time and let the trend guide youWhy we pull cardio before steps when the rate of loss runs too hotTimestamps:00:00:00 - Intro and updates00:05:00 - The six minute cardio ramp, and why lifting isn't a zone 2 substitute00:09:00 - What actually counts as a training day: recovery as the definition00:10:30 - The gray area: high step days, hikes, and zone 200:13:00 - Nutritional periodization and the maintenance phase00:17:30 - Appetite blunting, rebound hunger, and the weekly average00:22:00 - Surplus: insulin sensitivity and nutrient partitioning around training00:29:00 - Monitoring a surplus: DEXA, and whether six more pounds is worth it00:31:30 - Deficit: the phase where splitting matters most00:34:00 - The psychology of dieting and Bryan's opposite approach00:37:30 - Going bland on purpose: flavor, the algorithm, and hunger00:42:00 - The constrained energy model, steps, and the Pontzer research00:47:00 - HIIT versus low intensity cardio in a deficit00:50:00 - Non-bodyweight reasons: metabolic flexibility and quality of life00:54:00 - Wearables, the trend over the number, and pulling cardio before steps Training hard, but don't look like it?

What would it take to build a family that lasts for 250 years? In this episode, Steven Manuel and Mark Parrett unpack the lessons from an Abrahamic Boot Camp where fathers gathered to think differently about work, wealth, faith, health, and generational family legacy. The conversation explores what it means to build a 250-year family—not simply by accumulating wealth, but by creating a family culture capable of passing the baton from one generation to the next. They discuss biblical work, generational wealth, marriage, male brotherhood, family vision, physical health, and the responsibility fathers have to prepare their children and grandchildren for the future. You'll also hear the fascinating math behind long-term wealth, why culture may matter more than financial sophistication, what the founding fathers understood about building for “ourselves and our posterity,” and why you may never personally see the fruit of what you're building. Covered in this episode: • How to build a family legacy that lasts for generations• What a 250-year family actually looks like• The biblical purpose of work and why fathers are called to work• How family culture determines whether generational wealth survives• The connection between marriage and long-term family wealth• Why fathers need strong male friendships and brotherhood• How to create a family vision that reaches beyond your lifetime• The mathematics of building generational wealth over 250 years• Why physical health is part of your family's “capital”• What the founding fathers can teach us about thinking generationally• How to pass the baton to your children and grandchildren• Why you may never see the fruit of what you're building If you're a Christian father who wants to think beyond the next five years and build something your great-grandchildren can inherit, this episode is for you.

Alex Fitzgerald got the keys to his first factory on January 6, 2025. Eighteen months later Isembard has 14 factories across the US, the UK, France and Germany, just under 100 people, and a business model nobody in this industry has run at scale. Ten of those factories he doesn't own. They belong to franchisees. The franchise piece is the part I keep turning over. Before he started, Alex went through the McDonald's franchisee process himself, worked in a restaurant, got all the way to an interview with the chief restaurant officer for the UK. He doesn't look at McDonald's and see a burger business. He sees heat treatment and assembly, run to the same SOPs in every location, for a customer who knows exactly what he's getting. That's the bet. Build the systems once, then hand them to people who own their own shops. I gave a talk at the Top Shops Conference back in 2017 arguing something close to this. Even if you never open a second location, run your shop as if there's one a thousand miles away that you'll never visit. If it only works because you're standing in it, it doesn't really work. Most shops fail that test, and Alex named the reason. Too much of the business lives in the owner's head. We get into the practical side too. How he found his first four people, why he spends about half his week hunting for the next one, the hiring process that ends with a candidate standing in front of the entire company, how work gets funneled across 14 sites, and the two setbacks that actually hurt, an AS9100D audit and a machine crash. You may never franchise your shop. But the systems thinking here is 10% worth the hour.

But if more information were enough to solve financial stress, most people would already have solved it.In this episode of Ditch the Suits, we explore why financial advice often fails to change behaviour, particularly when someone is stuck in a scarcity mindset.We then break down what actually starts to change the conditions that create financial stress and why earning more isn't usually the answer. We'll also look at the practical steps you can take to start creating more financial stability.If you feel like most of the financial advice out there isn't working as well as it promises to, this is for you.Covered in this episode:0:00 – Intro1:48 – Why financial advice rarely lands.4:04 – Why financial stability takes time and the indicators that you're moving in the right direction.5:46 – The first step to changing the conditions around your finances.7:36 – Why earning more money doesn't necessarily reduce financial stress.8:07 – Needs vs. wants: understanding what you're actually spending on.10:27 – Signs your financial life has become unnecessarily complicated.12:18 – How using your calendar differently can create more financial peace.14:19 – The mindset reframe that can help you make better financial decisions.Subscribe to Ditch The Suits on your favorite podcast platform so you don't miss an episode.LEARN MOREDitch The Suits - https://www.ditchthesuits.com/ CONNECTTravis Maus on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/travis-maus/ LISTENSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/4tVWSbhT5gYcXIwjUQklgw?si=04d2b1c7976a402e Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/ditch-the-suits-your-money-your-life/id1551210529 YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@DitchtheSuits_Podcast
Most machine shops start thinking seriously about workforce development when they already need someone. A machinist quits, capacity jumps, the backlog grows, and suddenly finding skilled people becomes an emergency. MSP Manufacturing has taken a very different approach. Johnny Goode joins Paul and Brooke to explain how MSP has spent years building relationships with high schools, apprenticeship programs, students, parents, and the broader manufacturing community. Now, as the company experiences more than 50% revenue growth, that investment is starting to pay off. We dig into ROI Uplands, a regional program connecting high school students with real employers, and what it actually looks like to bring 16- and 17-year-olds into a working machine shop. Can apprentices contribute meaningfully in an environment where quality, safety, and precision matter? How much training does it take? And what happens to your culture when young people become a regular part of the team? We also get into the bigger problem facing manufacturing: many students and their parents still have no idea what these careers actually look like. Johnny, Paul, and Brooke talk about the earning potential hiding inside modern manufacturing, why exposure needs to start long before graduation, and what shops can do to help create the next generation of machinists instead of waiting for someone else to do it. What's Covered in this Episode (0:00) Why these apprentices hold themselves to a higher standard than anyone sets for them (2:17) Reintroducing Johnny Goode and getting a snapshot of MSP Manufacturing (4:11) 30 employees, six apprentices, and 50% revenue growth without adding bodies (5:30) How ROI Uplands links nine counties of Indiana high schools to local employers (7:51) Take your shop to the next level with DN Solutions (9:05) Eagle Manufacturing and the student-run businesses taking real jobs from industry (10:35) Interview day, the draft, and the state reimbursing half of apprentice wages (11:55) A three-to-two tuition deal that sends students into the workforce with zero debt (13:04) Brooke on steamfitting, welding, and the year of college she'd take back (14:47) 500 applicants, 100 placements, and why Indiana is ahead of the curve (16:14) What happens to culture when apprentices are the children of your employees (17:57) Win a fully tooled SVM 4100 from MakingChips, DN Solutions, and Kennametal (18:44) Why people apply to MSP when there are no job postings anywhere (20:38) What MSP does to support their community (21:40) The Band-Aid analogy: keep patching the wound or repair it (23:42) What a day actually looks like for an apprentice on the floor (26:09) What success looks like: Hiring for culture fit over subject matter expertise (29:10) Why students are choosing manufacturing internships (31:05) Countering the stigma that the trades are the fallback option (33:42) The $180,000 setup programmer nobody talks about (36:00) Reality-based AI for the factory floor at the IMTS Industrial AI Conference (35:19) AI as a force multiplier, not a people replacer (37:26) Why schools turn down free software, and what ProShop does instead (42:12) Advisory boards, wait lists, and the tech school near Tulsa with no students (45:33) Reaching third graders before anyone tells them what a machinist is (50:07) What gives Johnny the most hope for the next generation Resources Mentioned ROI Uplands Eagle Manufacturing (Brown County High School) ProShop ERP DN Solutions Kennametal Conexus Indiana MakingChips Machine Giveaway IMTS IMTS Industrial AI Conference Titans of CNC Connect with Johnny Goode Johnny Goode on LinkedIn MSP Manufacturing Connect with MakingChips www.MakingChips.com On Facebook On LinkedIn On Instagram On Twitter On YouTube

ETP226 comes from a DM question posed to Bryan wondering whether we have taken the "abs are made in the kitchen" idea too far. That question opened up into a bigger one, and it is the question this whole episode chases: for muscle groups like abs and arms, how much does training them directly actually change your physique relative to the extra time it costs you?We work through it from a few angles. Whether a base of prior ab development carries over through years of compound lifting, how core stability from free weights compares to braced machine work, and where the honest line sits between a six-pack and true influencer-level abs. From there it moves to the more interesting half of the conversation, the arms. The thought experiment at the center of it is a natural lifter who has gotten genuinely strong, think a 200 press, 300 bench, 400 squat, 500 deadlift plus weighted pull-ups and dips, and whether that person ends up with basically the same arms as someone who added years of dedicated direct arm work on top.That leads into some of our favorite tangents: why body fat distribution is largely hormonal and splits so differently between men and women, whether the size you get from direct arm work is real myofibrillar growth or mostly transient sarcoplasmic pump, whether muscle and fat compete for the same space, and Bryan's one arm experiment as evidence. It all ties back to the one question worth actually sitting with, how much optimization is worth pursuing for you, which comes down to what you care about and what your time is better spent on.Covered in this episodeThe DM that started it: have we taken "abs are made in the kitchen" too far?Why nutrition, not ab training, is what stands between most people and visible absWhether prior ab development is maintained through years of compound liftingCore stability from free weights versus bracing on machinesThe ex-powerlifter example: big lifts leave developed midsections behindDefining the goal: a six-pack versus influencer or Ryan Terry level absThe arms thought experiment: the genuinely strong natural lifterThe strength benchmarks that mean you have put in the workWhy weighted pull-ups and dips matter for elbow flexion and extensionHow execution differences change how much arm you get from rows and pullsBody fat distribution as a largely hormonal, sex-linked patternWhether long term TRT slowly shifts where you store fatSarcoplasmic versus myofibrillar hypertrophy from direct arm workWhy the pure compound-only lifter is a bit of a hypothetical purgatoryThe one arm experiment and what it suggests about transient arm sizeWhether muscle and fat compete for the same spaceWhy more developed abs can actually look worse if you are not leanHow much optimization is worth pursuing, and how that answer is personalThe earlier lifter: get strong on compounds before chasing direct arm workTimestamps:00:00:00 - Episode Intro00:02:00 - Have we taken abs are made in the kitchen too far00:05:00 - Core stability from free weights versus braced machines00:07:00 - The ex-powerlifter example: big lifts leave a developed midsection00:10:30 - Defining ab development: a six-pack versus influencer abs00:12:30 - The arms thought experiment: the strong enough natural lifter00:15:30 - How execution changes the arm you get from rows and pulls00:18:30 - Body fat distribution, hormones, and male versus female patterns00:22:30 - Whether long term TRT shifts where you store fat00:24:30 - Sarcoplasmic versus myofibrillar hypertrophy from direct arm work00:27:30 - The one arm experiment and what it suggests about transient size00:29:30 - Can muscle and fat compete for the same space00:34:30 - Why developed abs can look worse if you are not lean00:38:30 - How much optimization is actually worth pursuing00:40:30 - The earlier lifter: get strong on compounds first Training hard, but don't look like it?

Self-custodial. Whatever asset you're buying - swap it at http://unchainedcrypto.com/go/1inch-sn ======================================================== OpenAI's AI agents didn't just get caught cheating on a security test. According to the postmortem, they already had the answers, and hacked Hugging Face's systems not to cheat, but to learn who was scoring them and cover their tracks. Kain Warwick and Taylor Monahan bring on Austin Griffith, Builder Enablement at the Ethereum Foundation, to work through what that cover-up actually means, and why Griffith thinks Nick Bostrom's twenty-year-old paperclip thought experiment stopped being hypothetical the moment agents started writing production-grade code. They also cover the tokenized HIMS stock pump, Rune's fake $100 million NASDAQ LARP, Kyle Samani's abrupt exit from Multicoin, and the Cronos validators who rolled back a hack. If agents can trick each other to avoid detection, what happens once they're running your portfolio, or your toaster?

It's been 25 years since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. NY1 is marking the anniversary in a variety of ways, including a special episode of "You Decide" in which Errol Louis was joined by two longtime NY1 journalists who covered the attacks that day: Pat Kiernan and Cheryl Wills. Kiernan recalled learning that the first plane had struck the World Trade Center during his "In the Papers" segment and quickly switching to live pictures from Lower Manhattan. What followed was continuous, wall-to-wall coverage with no commercials for days. He described the initial confusion over what had happened, efforts to get NY1 crews downtown, and CNN carrying NY1's feed, which included the first live interview with then-Mayor Rudy Giuliani. Wills, then a health reporter, recalled seeing smoke from the World Trade Center while riding the LIRR, arriving at NY1, and racing downtown by motorcycle. She also discussed repeatedly working amid the smoke without a mask, later joining the World Trade Center Health Program, and reporting in the years that followed on the lasting health effects of 9/11 and the sensitive issues surrounding how the attacks are memorialized.

Wil Jorgensen started a machine shop at 22 with a $4,000 screw machine he found on Craigslist. He's 26 now, running Evolution CNC in Wenatchee, Washington, with seven people and a pallet automated 5-axis machine that runs close to around the clock. What makes this conversation worth your time isn't the growth curve though. It's how he thinks. Wil and his team wrote a four page manifesto before they made the big bets. Not a business plan, an emotional document about what would make betting their careers on this thing feel worthwhile. Then they bought a Matsuura MAM72 35 with 32 pallets when they had almost no money in the bank, overdrew the account by $4,000 to close it, and gave themselves about 30 days to make it work. It worked. Bookings went from $252,000 in 2024 to $1.1 million in 2025, and they're pushing toward $2 million this year. His advice on automation is blunt. Don't wait until you think you can afford it. The smaller the shop, the more automation you should have. The part that stuck with me most is the promise Wil makes to everyone he hires. He will not be angry. He spent a stretch of his early twenties running on anger and determination, and then decided he didn't have time for it. If one of his guys scraps $25,000 in parts and Wil stays calm, nobody else in the building gets to be angry either. That one decision shapes how the whole shop operates. There's a lot in here about buying machines you can't afford, cutting loose customers who don't pay, and getting out of your own people's way. If you're early in building a shop, or you're still touching everything yourself, this one will land.

DMEXCO 2026 is almost here! In this special episode, Verena Gründel shares the ten things you need to know before heading to Cologne. From “Scaling Intelligence” and the biggest conference highlights to the new World of Commerce, side events and smart networking tips, this is your essential guide to DMEXCO. Plus, Thomas Mosch, Director Conference at DMEXCO, Dirk Freytag, President of BVDW, and Kassenzone founder Alexander Graf reveal what they're most excited about this year. What's Covered: 1. The motto is a deadline, not decoration Why "Scaling Intelligence" - and not "Scaling Artificial Intelligence" - is this year's theme, and what the PwC CEO survey stat (only 12% of companies grow revenue and cut costs through AI) tells us about where the industry really stands. 2. The basics: When, where, how to get around Dates, venue, opening times, transport, and why the DMEXCO app is essential before you even land in Cologne. 3. Eleven summits, four worlds, one roof: A guide to the four DMEXCO Worlds (Tech, Commerce, Media, Agencies) and the ten summits and stages within them. Plus the Start-Up Area and the new Innovation Stage. 4. Why the two days aren't identical: How Day 1 (technological and structural change) and Day 2 (what it means for brands and marketing leadership) follow a deliberate script, and which topics and stages appear on which day. 5. Conference deep dive with Thomas Mosch: The scale of this year's program, how AI runs through the sessions without a dedicated "AI Summit," and the sessions to watch. 6. World of Commerce deep dive with Alexander Graf: Why commerce, media, and marketing are converging, what's new in the expanded Commerce Summit and Commerce Lounge, and the trends (social commerce vs. agentic commerce) shaping the conversation. Learning Journeys, highlights of the Creativity Summit, the Online Ad Summit, and an insider tip for the show. 8. Side events worth knowing about: Pre-show dinners and parties, booth parties on Day 1, and the legendary night out at Bootshaus. 9. Insider tips for getting the most out of DMEXCO: Practical advice on using the app early, pacing your schedule, stepping outside your usual world, arriving the night before, and leading with questions instead of pitches. 10. A closing thought: A question to carry into Cologne: is your company actually scaling intelligence? Or just scaling expectations?
The first question comes from a viewer who has not managed solid food in four weeks and had severe chest pain when she ate. Dr. Lodi walks through the two sphincters of the esophagus, explains that the pain of a spasm there cannot be told apart from a heart attack, and says that with every scan and swallow test coming back clean, what is left to look for is a functional cause rather than an anatomical one. He points her toward a gastroenterologist who specializes in the esophagus and stomach, or a neurologist, and says it is hard to say.The longest block of the show goes to a woman who had a meningioma removed a year ago, with a fragment left near major vessels, and who says she eats mostly keto carnivore. He lays out what a ketogenic diet is actually for, argues that you can never starve a tumor of its fuel because the body makes glucose through gluconeogenesis and makes glutamine too, and cites a review covering 249 studies on meningioma in which a diet high in vegetables and fruit came out protective against developing one. Then he tells her that nobody she has read about is on a carnivore diet at all. "Carnivores eat animals alive," he says. "They don't take them home and barbecue them." What people are really on, on his account, is "a scavenger diet, which is a dog diet, which is eating corpses."From there the questions run through pearl powder, Parkinson's disease and intravenous glutathione, what the injected glucose in a PET scan is measuring, how high liver enzymes can go during a cleanse, and five years of POTS-like symptoms after living in a house with black mold. The last answer ends on rebalancing the autonomic nervous system.Covered in this episodeTrouble swallowing and esophageal spasmMeningioma after surgeryWhat he says a ketogenic diet is forWhether a carnivore diet is really carnivorousRoot canals and hormonesPearl powderParkinson's disease and glutathioneB cell lymphoma and what a PET scan measuresLiver enzymes during a cleanseBlack mold and POTSSend us Fan Mail Join Dr. Lodi's Inner Circle membership and unlock exclusive access to webinars, healthy recipes, e-books, educational videos, live Zoom Q&A sessions with Dr. Lodi, plus fresh content every month.

A lot has changed since the last time we pulled up chairs around the Boring Bar. For our fourth edition, eight manufacturing leaders joined us in the MakingChips studio ahead of the IMTS pre-party to talk about where the industry is headed and, after a couple pours, where they think it should be headed. AI takes over the conversation early. How fast is it really moving into manufacturing? What happens when it can quote jobs, write code, capture tribal knowledge, or help program a part? Where does the human still matter? And are we actually prepared for the power, infrastructure, workforce, and even educational questions that come with all of it? Then we turn the question back on ourselves. If you were starting a machine shop in 2026, knowing everything we know now, would you build it the same way? What would you invest in first? What kind of equipment would you buy? How would you think about automation, people, capacity, specialization, cash flow, and the growing list of incentives available to manufacturers? Along the way, we get into what's driving demand right now, why data centers suddenly matter to machine shops, what manufacturers should be watching at IMTS, and whether the next generation of shops will look anything like the ones we grew up around. As usual at the Boring Bar, there are strong opinions, questionable jokes, bourbon, gin, and a few detours we definitely didn't plan. Pull up a chair.

Tonight we're heading out to a small village in the Finger Lakes region of New York where an outsider, a young woman, was found brutally murdered in a cornfield. And to this day no killer has ever been caught.
Another month, another batch of questions pulled straight from the Instagram audience. This one runs the full range, from how to build a bro split around daily cardio, to the zone 2 discourse currently making the rounds, to a couple of surprisingly good questions from Bryan's nine year old. We take each one in turn and give the honest answer rather than the tidy one.A lot of this episode lives in the nuance. How to read research when you do not have a science background and whether reviews are the better use of your time, whether an 80/20 commitment can really get you to 95% of your muscle gain potential and why the way you define that 80/20 changes the answer, and Aaron's transparent take on TRT after being on it for a while, including what he would do differently if he could start over. Bryan revisits the one arm training experiment and what it actually proved, and we get into practical troubleshooting for the classic wake up after two to three hours sleep problem.Covered in this episodeBuilding a 5 to 7 day bro split that still fits daily cardio for healthManaging beat up legs when cardio stacks on top of lower daysThe Dr. Mike T.

Nicola Toki chats to Emile this week's critter of the week - the deepwater burrfish. The deepwater burrfish (Allomycterus pilatus), or kopuwaitotara, is an unusual deep-sea porcupinefish found in New Zealand and Australian waters. Covered in short spines and equipped with large eyes for life in dim depths, it can inflate its body to several times its normal size when threatened, making it difficult for predators to swallow. Despite being regularly washed up on beaches, relatively little is known about its population, biology or conservation status.

In this episode of the Twiniversity Podcast, Nat talks with Connie Rutherford — a Wall Street–turned–tech mom, author of Searching for Tadpoles, and a solo mom by choice raising twin girls she was told she had almost no odds of having. Connie walks through the whole road: freezing her eggs at 38, choosing a sperm donor in secret from her traditional family, three IUIs, a failed transfer, and a fresh cycle at 40 where she skipped genetic testing, transferred two embryos at less than 1% odds, and got both. From there it is a twin pregnancy in a boiler-room career, a 17-hour flight home from Taiwan in a face mask as COVID hit, and a book written almost entirely while pregnant. It is a funny, unfiltered, deeply reassuring conversation about building the family you want without waiting for anyone else to show up. CONNECT WITH CONNIE
After more than 300 conversations across Machine Shop Mastery, MakingChips, and Manufacturing Transformed, I wrote a book. It's called Precision Manufacturing, Precision Business, and I keep saying "we" wrote it because that's the truth. I got the words onto the page, but the hard lessons, ideas, and wisdom came from this community. The premise is simple: you'd never ship a titanium part at 99% accuracy, so why run your business that way? Shops obsess over holding dimensions, but that same precision doesn't always carry into quoting, planning, scheduling, procurement, or contract review. That gap is the opportunity. In this episode, I share my journey in manufacturing, starting in 1997 with six college friends, a second mortgage, one Haas VF4, and very little idea what we were doing. The discipline I write about didn't come from a textbook. It came from getting things wrong and having people willing to tell us why. I'll also give you a sneak peek inside the book, covering everything from niching down and estimating to culture, compliance, and quote-to-cash. It's about building a business that runs with the same discipline as the machines and has real value whether you ever sell it or not. Precision Manufacturing, Precision Business launches September 1, just before IMTS, at disciplinetoprofit.com. More than 50 people from the shows are quoted in it, and if you want a signed copy, come find me at the ProShop booth or the MakingChips booth in the South Hall.

Website traffic is falling across the board, and it's tempting to read that as a marketing problem. It usually isn't. AI summaries now answer the generic top of funnel questions people used to click into your site to answer, so the casual browsers never arrive. The visitors who do show up are the ones already deciding whether you're a fit. That changes what a manufacturing website is for. A list of machines, materials, and certifications was fine when buyers were willing to dig. Now they want a specific answer to a specific question, and if your site makes them hunt for it, they'll go back to Google or ChatGPT and get an answer from a source you don't control. We talk with John Greeley of Navu about what shops should actually do about it, and a lot of it isn't what you'd expect. Old content that used to sit harmlessly on your site is now working against you, because LLMs read your whole site at once and stop citing you when they find pages that disagree with each other. Less content with more depth beats the old habit of publishing a page for every possible search term. The other half of this is labor. The questions landing in your info inbox are usually answered somewhere on your site already, and they're pulling SMEs and owners off the work that actually moves the business. John walks through a real buyer journey where the ninth question was a technical spec buried on page 193 of a PDF, and the tenth was how to talk to sales. Nobody on that team spent a minute on it until the lead was qualified. Brooke also joins us in the host seat for the first time and gives the Gen Z read on all of it, which mostly comes down to letting people find what they need before anyone tries to sell them something.

On May 1, 2026, the federal government introduced co-payments on the Interim Federal Health Program. Ninety days later, at 12:01 a.m. on July 31, five categories of benefit were moved from the Supplemental grid to the Basic grid, where co-payments do not apply. There was no vote, no debate, and no ministerial announcement I could locate. The change was delivered in a two-page bulletin from the program's insurance administrator to its registered providers.Let's connect!- - - - - - - - - - -Buy me a coffee! -Kelsi SherenDO NO HARM?

This episode looks at some smart ways to regulate pharmacy when it comes to med spas and pop-up clinics — ways that won't cut patients off from their meds. We also look at the latest news on the thyroid-extract front, what's happening with peptide compounding, and a bill in California that could bode well for pharmacists nationwide. Then we talk with Kristen Jones, PharmD, from Pharmacists Mutual about how insurance companies view compounding, and why compounders are taking a bigger risk than they might realize if they're compounding peptides.
