PSA: psychiatry does not have any case reports of diseases that are validated! This shortcoming of the DSM is why Luis dropped out of psychology and instead chose holistic psychology. As Luis sees it, behavior is not a fixed identity. There is no biochemical data proving “mental disease”. What we can track is neurotransmitters, like seratonin. 50-90% of these are made in the gut. Cue nutrition. Food is a shortcut to influencing change in the brain's biochemistry. Carbs influence glucose, which plays an active role in our mood. If you would like to track your glucose consider getting a glucose monitor like hellolingo.com for two weeks to gather data. Notice what you eat, how you feel, your activities, and your mood, all relative to the continuous glucose monitor's data. If you would like to see Luis' hellolingo.com glucose charts, tune in to the YouTube video version of this podcast.  If you are curious about using nutrition to support your mental health, check out our 6 month Embodied Nutrition Slow group, starting July 7th 2026,:https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/slow-practice-nutrition-groupYou can read more about, and register for, the upcoming 6 month "Embodied Nutrition" program here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/slow-practice-nutrition-group----You can learn more on the website: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/You can follow Luis on Instagram @holistic.life.navigationQuestions?

In Episode 154 of A Teacher's Toolkit for Literacy, hosts Sharon and Phil sit down with classroom teachers De and Danielle to explore the fourth pillar of effective writing instruction: mastery through high-impact teaching. The conversation digs into the practical strategies that move students beyond basic competence and into genuine craft. De and Danielle introduce the master class as one of their most powerful tools — a short, targeted small-group session that runs alongside whole-class mini lessons. Unlike traditional remediation groups, master classes are open to every student. Stronger writers are extended and challenged while emerging writers receive focused support. Sessions are invitational, allowing students to come and go freely, which creates genuine engagement and builds trust between teachers and learners. Mentor texts sit at the centre of every unit De and Danielle teach. Rather than simply reading books aloud, they pull texts apart with students — examining structure, vocabulary, and authorial choices — and keep them accessible throughout the writing process as living models. Books by authors such as Gary Crew, Philip Bunting, and Tristan Bancks are chosen because they intrigue both teachers and students alike, and because they serve the classroom reading life well beyond the writing unit itself. Access to published authors adds another dimension to the programme. When authors visit — in person or via Zoom — writing becomes tangible and real for students. The class's encounter with Gary Crew is a standout moment, with students surprising even the author himself with the depth of their insight. Explicit instruction ties everything together. De and Danielle move through the I do / We do / You do cycle quickly, ensuring students reach independent practice in every lesson. Student Peyton's interview closes the episode powerfully, describing how being asked to restart a major piece from scratch becomes the turning point that transforms her understanding of planning, word choice, and revision.

Send us Fan MailThe definitive GenX late-night talk show. An unexpected musical comeback. Underrated 1980s moments.Summer is unofficially here, and Episode 246 of the podcast brings a fresh batch of nostalgia unlikely to spoil in the hot sun.Cue up the dog pound because we're starting off with a look back at the unique and highly influential Arsenio Hall Show. It broke barriers and broke the rules of late-night talk shows. Arsenio's show felt like something created for the younger generation at the time, and we will get into the details.Here they come. They could have been a quirky 1960s footnote, but instead, The Monkees made an unlikely and hugely successful comeback twenty years after they debuted. What started as a marathon of their hit TV show on MTV in 1986 soon became a full-fledged return of Monkee-Mania.The Top 5 is focusing on the lesser remembered and underrated moments from the 1980s. Pop culture, sports, music, and technology are all represented this week.There is, as always, a brand-new This Week In History and Time Capsule featuring the life and career of music icon Bob Dylan.To support me and the show, become a member on Patreon. Or you can support my work and Buy Me A Coffee!Helpful Links from this EpisodeBuy My New Book, In Their Footsteps!Searching For the Lady of the Dunes True Crime BookHooked By Kiwi - Etsy.comDJ Williams MusicKeeKee's Cape Cod KitchenMSFTS CommunityKingfisher Hotels Cape CodChristopher Setterlund.comCape Cod Living - Zazzle StoreSubscribe on YouTube!Initial Impressions 2.0 BlogCJSetterlundPhotos on EtsyListen to Episode 245 hereSupport the show

Why is it so hard to stop eating ultra-processed foods — even when you know they're hurting you? In Episode 13 of this 16-part series, Dr. Brendan McCarthy explains why the real problem is not just the food itself. The real problem is the loop: Cue or emotional state → Wanting → Bargaining → Consumption → Temporary relief → Crash/regret → Repeat. This episode explores how ultra-processed and hyper-palatable foods become attached to stress, boredom, loneliness, exhaustion, anxiety, and emotional discomfort — training the brain to seek relief through food. Key ideas from this episode: • Hunger is the body asking for nourishment • Wanting is the conditioned brain asking for the expected hit • The food is the bait. The loop is the trap. • The food breaks the feeling. It does not heal the source. • You cannot remove a counterfeit regulator without restoring real regulation. Dr. McCarthy breaks down why willpower alone often fails and why lasting change requires a physiologic off-ramp: stable meals, protein, fiber, hydration, sleep, movement, emotional regulation, cue reduction, social planning, and relapse repair. This is not about “perfect eating.” It is about building a life where food is no longer your primary regulator of stress, comfort, or identity. If you've ever felt trapped in cravings, emotional eating, binge-restrict cycles, or constant food noise, this episode is designed to help you understand the mechanism behind the loop — and how to begin leaving it.

Cue the comments section. We think this one is going to get a lot of attention - good and bad. It was a slower-news, running week, so there were a lot of angry runners arguing on social media about silly (?) things. Naturally, Des and Kara have to weigh in because many of you did already. But first (!)... Kara gives us a recap of Colt's amazing run in the 2-mile at state, after correcting the record on his 800m PR. His race at state was full of surges, but he finished higher than his seed in 14th and now is exciting to head to the Brooks PR meet. Meanwhile, Des is enjoying her time off from training but is now feeling the urge to get started again before this becomes a permanent break.  Then, they dig into the drama with reactions about the Satisfy Running debate, where many people (particularly in the trail world) are frustrated about how they are showing up in the sport. Satisfy is a new-ish running shoe and apparel brand. Their gear is really expensive, but should we be mad about it? As a fun side question on this debate, Kara was asked: "Is she sad that she missed the NIL era with her own college career?"  Next, they weigh in on the Cam Hanes vs. Sage Cannaday showdown on the socials. Sage turned Cam into USADA for openly admitting to using banned substances in his build-up to the Eugene Marathon (where he won his age group and placed 2nd Masters). Many people are mad at Sage on social media, defending Cam since there was no money or Team USA spot on the line. The Eugene Marathon, however, is a USATF-sanctioned event where there are rules against doping, amateur or not. What is the obligation of the amateur to follow anti-doping rules and do we want USADA or WADA worried about enforcement for the entire field? This topic is trickier than you think, when you dig into the nuance of it. What do you think?! Note: Kara mistakenly said Cam's time at Eugene was 2:37. He ran 2:39:11.  Finally along with a top 5, they get to the real crux of the episode. Are you a Minnesota or Irish goodbye person and when is the Irish goodbye ok?!? Plus... Des and Kara give a huge shout-out and some advice to listeners Nick and Avery on their upcoming wedding! Now, go pick up your pillow from Lagoon - the Otter or the "Thin"-Chilla (as Des dubbed it).

Today's prank call took a seriously chaotic turn when Oonagh rang an unsuspecting woman with some very alarming “news” — according to Oonagh, her driving licence was no longer valid. Armed with her address and car details, Oonagh made the call sound a little too convincing, insisting letters had already been sent and that the only way to revalidate the licence was to complete a theory test… over the phone. As panic, confusion and frustration started to build, the poor victim could not understand why she'd never received these mystery letters. Cue one of the funniest, most awkward prank calls yet with plenty of disbelief and chaos along the way.

“Is ‘No Worries' a Lie?! Plus the Bald Eagle That Thought a Rock Was a Baby “When someone says ‘no worries'… are they actually FULL of worries?” That's the question that kicks off a wildly entertaining ride with JB, Sandy, and Tricia—and it only gets more unpredictable from there. This episode is packed with laugh-out-loud moments, relatable debates, and a few stories that will have you asking, “Wait… is that real life?” From the subtle psychology behind everyday phrases to a bald eagle named Murphy who accidentally stumbled into fatherhood, the crew dives into topics that are equal parts hilarious and head-scratching. One standout moment comes when Sandy shares a brutally honest life tip about decision-making: “Never ever say ‘let me think about that.'” Cue a lively conversation about boundaries, people-pleasing, and why a quick “no” might actually be your secret superpower. Then things take a turn into pure JB and Sandy chaos with one of the most unforgettable stories of the show—a bald eagle who tried to hatch a rock. Yes, really. When his handlers swapped the rock for a real baby eaglet, Murphy instantly became a dad… but the crew is not convinced this is a feel-good story. “I hear nothing sweet. I hear a really dumb bald eagle with a lot of responsibility.” Their hot takes on Murphy's new life will have you laughing and questioning everything you thought you knew about “heartwarming” animal stories. Plus, the gang keeps things fast and fun with a round of Care or Don't Care, where Slurpee nostalgia sparks excitement, while manifestation advice gets hilariously shut down: “I'll burn that book… The Secret.” 

https://teachhoops.com/ Episode Title: How Do You Stop the One-Mistake Spiral Before It Destroys a Game? Every coach has seen it: one mistake turns into two, body language collapses, and a player checks out mentally. This episode gives you a simple, repeatable system to stop the spiral in real time—without speeches, posters, or “shake it off” coaching. You'll learn how to train the reset like a skill so it shows up when the game gets tight. Why most players spiral after mistakes (and why motivation doesn't fix it long-term) The “micro-focus” method that shrinks pressure down to the next playable moment How to install one program-wide reset cue (“Next,” “Neutral,” or WIMC) A simple breathing tool that helps players regain control in high-pressure moments How to clean up self-talk so it becomes a weapon, not a liability A scrimmage scoring twist that rewards “resets” instead of points Players don't lack toughness—they lack a system for adversity. When pressure hits, the brain narrows, focus shrinks, and mistakes compound because there's no reset protocol to return to neutral. 1) Shrink the moment Train players to focus on the next controllable action: next play, next stop, next box out, next sprint back. 2) Use one reset cue Pick one cue for the entire program (ex: “Next,” “Neutral,” WIMC = What's In My Control). Train it daily so it becomes automatic. 3) Practice calm on purpose Use breathing as a skill, not a suggestion: box breathing (4-4-4-4) and the late-game quick reset (4 in, 8 out). 4) Replace negative self-talk with action cues Teach athletes to identify the negative thought and replace it with one short physical cue (ex: “Strong hands,” “Stay low,” “Talk early,” “See the rim”). Short live play segments (ex: two-minute games) where teams earn points for responding correctly after mistakes: sprint back, communicate, execute the next right decision. No points for complaining, blaming, or bad body language. When you see the spiral starting: don't lecture. Name the reset, get one breath, demand communication, and run one clean action to create a quick win (stop, rebound, quality shot). Pick ONE reset cue today. Train it for 30 days. Build it into the first three minutes of practice. When the lights come on, your team won't rise to the moment—they'll fall to their training.

This week, something different. My new album, Awakening: The Stillness Within, is out. And instead of telling you about it, I want to listen to it with you. Track by track. Breath by breath. A quiet companion through nine pieces made in India.Cue up the episode, press play, and let's Calm It Down in 3…2…1. 

Hosts Phil and Sharon return with classroom teachers De and Danielle to explore the third pillar of their writing framework: independence in learning. The conversation cuts straight to something that matters Deply in any writing classroom — the difference between students who follow instructions and students who genuinely own their work. De and Danielle explain that independence is not about removing support. It is the result of teaching so explicitly and consistently, with such clear curriculum alignment, that students eventually internalise the process and begin making real decisions about their writing for themselves. The tools that make this possible — anchor charts built collaboratively with students, shared meta-language, structured learning intentions, success criteria, and a multi-stage editing process — are discussed in generous, practical detail. What makes the episode particularly compelling is the student interviews. Three Year Six students, Jaxson, Lil, and Lucas, speak with striking clarity about their own development as writers. Each one independently identifies editing as the stage that has helped them most, and each can name exactly what they are working on and why. Their ability to articulate their growth — using precise language like cohesion, exposition, sentence structure, and audience — is itself a testament to the teaching they have received. The conversation also surfaces a central insight that runs through the entire episode: structure and creative freedom are not in tension. They are mutually dependent. When students know the writing cycle so well that navigating it requires no conscious effort, their attention is freed for the craft itself — the choices, the risks, the voice. Sharon, Phil, De, and Danielle close the episode reflecting on years of accumulated practice, a standout cohort, and the quiet satisfaction of watching students become writers who understand not just how to write, but why it matters.

Gardening podcast - Fifty shades of grass seed. Penny Haslam is back in the garden with a small but pleasing mission: turning a bare, scruffy patch of soil into lawn.But the real twist comes from Marks & Spencer, where a bottle of wine at the self-checkout leads to some unexpectedly committed age-check banter with a young member of staff.Cue confusion, embarrassment and one important question: what do you call a younger man who's attracted to older women?https://gardenpodcast.co.uk/

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to The Kevin Jackson Show, where we take today's headlines, flip them over, shake out the loose change, and somehow still come up richer than the people running the country.Let's start with a little aviation eulogy. Cue the soft violin, maybe a single overhead bin creaking in the distance…Spirit Airlines… is gone.Flatlined. Toe tag. Curtain call at 30,000 feet.Now Spirit wasn't exactly the Ritz-Carlton of the skies. Nobody ever said, “You know what would really elevate this anniversary trip? A middle seat on Spirit with a guy eating tuna out of a Ziploc.” No. Spirit was the airline equivalent of a gas station hot dog… you knew what you were getting into, and yet somehow, it still surprised you.It was cheap. It was chaotic. It was… honest.And yes, it had a reputation. You'd go to the gate and it looked less like boarding a plane and more like casting for a reality show titled “Who Packed Their Entire Life Into a Carry-On?” Fights at the counter? Legendary. Viral before viral was even trying that hard.But here's the question nobody in power bothered asking: Did people fly Spirit because they loved it… or because it was the only thing they could afford?See, Spirit wasn't just an airline. It was a pressure valve for the middle and working class. It was the difference between “I can visit my family” and “I'll just FaceTime them and pretend my Wi-Fi froze when it gets emotional.”And now? That valve is gone.And somehow, in the twisted funhouse mirror of modern politics, this is being celebrated.You've got Elizabeth Warren out there practically popping champagne, calling this collapse a “win for consumers.” A win. That's right. Because nothing says “victory” like 14,000 people updating their résumés while ticket prices quietly double in the background.That's like burning down a grocery store and calling it a diet plan.Let's rewind the tape a bit.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Vassilis Paleokostas, and his big brother Nikos, grew up shoeless in a Greek mountain village. When the boys moved to a city, they discovered a talent for robbery — and honed it with a mysterious criminal known locally as The Artist. Before long, the trio were pulling off some of the most daring heists in European history. At a volatile time of financial crashes, leftwing guerrillas and political corruption, the brothers dove into a new gig: kidnapping billionaire business magnates. What confounded cops the most was how Vassilis Paleokostas distributed his loot among the poor, and how the Greek people loved him for it. If authorities did catch up with the country's Robin Hood, there wasn't a prison in the land that could hold him for long. Cue decades of capers that could keep a Hollywood writers' room busy for months. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

2026-04-29 | UPDATES #188 | Plant potatoes, because everything has turned to shit. That's the pronouncement of one of the cheerleaders of Putin's pointless war. Another propagandist warns that Putin's regime is toxic and the Tsar may soon be deposed. Yevgeny Golman's potato warning meets Maxim Kalashnikov's toxic-Putin verdict. Russia is racing fast towards a repeat of the disastrous 90s. Russia has no real opposition, claimed Mark Feigin in an interview conducted this time last year. None that could challenge Putin at least and be a serious contender to seize power. So where is dissent coming from? It is coming from the regime's own loudest cheerleaders — the people whose entire careers have been spent shouting that everything is fine — suddenly, on camera, screaming that everything is not fine. Cue the meme of the dog sitting in a room of flames. That is Russia now – especially Tuapse – but the dog is realising that all in NOT ok. That whining sound of privileged Russians complaining is getting louder, and this week, includes the sound of two such men. The first is a Wagner Private Military Company veteran called Yevgeny Golman, screaming at his audience: "Guys, we need to change — everything needs changing! Otherwise, we're fucking screwed!" And his specific advice to ordinary Russians? Plant potatoes. ----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.gofundme.com/f/scaling-up-campaign-to-fight-authoritarian-disinformation----------A REQUEST FOR HELP!I'm heading back to Kyiv next month, to film, do research and conduct interviews.

In the second episode of their 2026 series, Phil and Sharon welcome back Danielle Monique and De Ludlum from Fairview Primary School in Collie, Western Australia, to explore the second of their five pillars of effective writing instruction: every student can produce quality writing. De and Danielle open with the belief that underpins everything they do — that every child, regardless of ability or background, is capable of being a writer. This is not an aspiration. It is a daily operational reality, built through careful planning, consistent structures, and a classroom environment designed to support every student at every stage of the writing process. The teachers walk listeners through the practical tools that bring this belief to life. Their word wall, Phrases We Love door display, anchor charts, graded writing samples, and critical features document work together to ensure that no student is ever left without a clear path forward. Plot in a Box provides a structured planning framework that students and teachers build together, with De and Danielle modelling every step before students attempt it independently. Plans are submitted and reviewed before drafting begins, and staged submission points throughout the unit keep every student on track. Editing, the teachers reveal, has undergone the most significant transformation in their practice. Where once Danielle was rewriting student work in the early hours of the morning, editing now belongs to the students themselves — carried out in deliberate stages through a school-wide editing code, with teacher feedback focused on showing students not just what to fix, but how. The episode concludes with interviews from two students, Riley and Kobi, whose candid, articulate reflections on what has helped them grow as writers provide the most compelling evidence of all: that when teachers build the right conditions and hold firm to high expectations, every child genuinely can produce quality writing.

A big week ahead so we have split into two this week. It's back on! A circus afternoon at Home Park and Argyle have made it to a meaningful last game of the season, for the third year running. It will need some freaky results but not the 19-0 win from last year - Archie is joined by Chris, Mark and Tom to talk it all through. It all starts so well. A sublime pass and a perfect finish amongst one way traffic against a relegated team - and life is looking good. Until poor Conor Hazard has a rush of blood to the head, Argyle are down to ten and, not long after, it's 1-1. Cue doom (and an impromptu quiz). Except, it wasn't. The visitor's goal proved to be their highlight as, for once, the ‘it's harder against 10 men' worked in the greens' favor. An excellent performance from Ashby-Hammond, endless running, fluid possession and as half time approached things were feeling good again.The second half started with a bang and another fantastic finish from the resurgent Pepple. Goals of the highest quality, with both feet: what a privilege it has been to see him play. Some late conservatism - enforced of course with 90 minutes with 10 men - but despite one moment, the result didn't really feel in doubt. The last time we see some of those players at Home Park? Let's wait and see. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Reposted from They Did What?!, which you can find now or very soon at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://podcastica.com/podcast/they-did-what⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ — In this episode, Kelsey and Gen, along with guest host, Guy, discuss Untold: The Girlfriend Who Didn't Exist, released on Netflix in 2022 and directed by Ryan Duffy and Tony Vainuku, tells the story of Manti Te'o, a Notre Dame football star whose rise to national fame became tangled up in one of the most bizarre catfishing scandals in sports history.  In 2012, during his senior season, Manti lost his grandmother and his girlfriend within hours of each other. Instead of crumbling, he dedicated his season to them, the sports world rallied behind him, and he helped carry Notre Dame to the national championship while finishing as a Heisman finalist.  Then in January 2013, it was revealed that Manti's girlfriend never existed. Cue media speculation about his involvement, what he knew, and even his sexuality. What started as a heartfelt story about love and loss quickly unraveled into something much stranger, raising questions about identity, media narratives, and how easily a lie can take on a life of its own.

This is a story about loss - In memory of Kira Johnson Charles welcomed fatherhood with joy. He and Kira were so excited to start their family, and their second pregnancy would bring them back-to-back boys. The first pregnancy had been healthy, but ended in an emergency surgical birth as Baby Charles experienced heart decelerations that became concerning. Welcoming their second child during a transition from Atlanta to Los Angeles provided an opportunity for them to seek world-class care. Kira and Baby Langston were healthy throughout the pregnancy. Kira and Charles took intentional steps to select a provider that met their needs. They opted for a scheduled surgical birth with a provider who had excellent reviews and had privileges at Cedar Sinai Hospital. Their doctor assured them that this was the safest approach to delivery due to her history. A Vaginal Birth After Cesarean (VBAC) was never presented as an option.  Their provider, Dr. Kasanji introduced them to Dr. Naim as a backup provider for the procedure. Spoiler alert - It was a racket. Dr. Kasanji could no longer stand for surgeries continued to accept patients, billed for prenatal care, and  then transferred their care to an incompetent, negligible, and callous butcher. We said what we said.  *The following timeline is not exact, but it's not exaggerated.  2:00 pm - Surgical birth began. 2:02 pm Incision complete on a patient with a previous cesarean scar. Cue internal bleeding. Just before 4:00 pm - Signs of hemorrhaging. Charles rings the alarm. 5:00 pm - CT Scan ordered STAT 6:00 pm - No CT Scan. Charles rings the alarm. 6:15 pm - Declared Surgical Emergency 7:00 pm - No CT scan. Kira is shivering uncontrollably.  8:00 pm - No CT scan. Charles rings the alarm. The CT never happened. Charles rings the alarm! 9:00 pm - Your wife just isn't a priority right now. 10:00 pm - No CT scan.  11:00 pm - No CT scan.  12:00 am - Baby, I'm scared.  12:00 am - “blind surgery” to find the bleed. It's not a big deal. She'll be back in 15 minutes. Incision. Crashed. Condition is critical, continuing to work on her.  Bring my wife back.  In a blink of an eye Kira was gone. There is nothing routine about not surviving a non-emergent surgical birth. The care, compassion, and skill that Kira deserved from her medical team never showed up.  There's a biblical verse that people quote when faced with loss, “Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.” It's intended to provide encouragement for a person to move forward. But what if it was intended to give permission to grieve. “For a night,” gives the illusion of temporality. Night is symbolic of darkness and death. Could it be, “Weeping may endure for darkness or weeping may endure for a death. Grief has cycles, it does not end. But joy comes in the morning. Joy comes in the light. It's the grief cycle of darkness and light - night and morning.  Charles Johnson shared his birth story that ended in the tragic, senseless, and avoidable death of his wife, Kira Dixon Johnson. Kira was a healthy 30-year-old woman in her second pregnancy when she trusted her vetted doctor and the reputation of an accomplished hospital system to ensure safe delivery of her child and her recovery. A rushed surgical birth that nicked her bladder caused internal bleeding; she lost her life after a series of pleas for support when she showed signs of hemorrhaging. Charles describes the formula that accompanies nearly every story of a Black woman losing her life in childbirth as, “We expressed our concerns, our concerns were dismissed or delayed, and by the time they did something, it was too late.”  The attending doctor, Dr. Naim, was later found negligent by the California Medical Board. Charles was inspired to keep fighting for better care and accountability. He founded 4Kira4Moms as a force multiplier in spreading the message of systemic change in medical care. This includes better care provider training, transparency, and accountability. The disproportionate impact of maternal mortality on Black women is at the center of his legislative advocacy, better doula and midwifery support, and increased awareness and education among fathers and non-birthing parents. Charles believes that revolutionary care  is that there has to be a fundamental standard of care in this country for all birthing people and doctors, midwives, whoever is performing these services, and who's getting paid for these services, their compensation needs to be tied to their ability to meet that standard period. Charles brought their baby home without Kira. He has faced fatherhood headfirst, allowing his sons to be his guiding force. They sustain him. They are the tools in his mental health toolbox, along with consistent therapy. He works for Kira's legacy and the future of change. She'd burn it all down. Charles has lit the match.

The Chopping Block crew and Wintermute's Evgeny Gaevoy debate whether Canton is truly permissionless, if Ethereum Foundation should double down on cypherpunk ideals or embrace institutions, and how AI-driven attacks are forcing everyone in crypto and open source to rethink security models. Welcome to The Chopping Block — where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This week we've got Evgeny Gaevoy, Founder of Wintermute, known for sharp takes and sharper trades. First up, the group unpacks the Twitter war over enterprise chain Canton—does it deserve to be called “permissionless”, or is it just TradFi with extra steps? Cue the Solana–Ethereum truce, and a rare moment where every old-school degenerate finds a common enemy. Evgeny makes a strong case for why, despite years of jokes at the Ethereum Foundation's expense, he thinks they're finally ahead of the curve by doubling down on cypherpunk roots—even if it makes ETH a little more Linux and a little less Nasdaq. But does decentralization matter if stablecoins and institutions now control the fork-choice? Haseeb and Evgeny spar over whether Ethereum's “world computer” vision means inviting in the corporate crowd or keeping the punk sanctuary alive. The mood shifts as the hosts dig into crypto's unfolding security meltdown: AI-written hacks, NPM supply chain fiascos, and what that means for the future of open source in crypto. Plus, a fresh new hack (RIP Drift), and predictions on how defensive tech (or lack thereof) will shape the next cycle. Barstool banter, spicy takes, and zero investment advice as always—let's get into it.

Just when you thought winter would never end, spring comes and clobbers you with seeds, weeds, and a list that just won't quit. Cue the panic. There is a TON to do — so how do we prioritize what's important, what's inconvenient, and what's seriously not getting touched for a couple months? Leslie and Marianne thought that the best person to tell them was friend and Founding Mixer Erin Schanen, The Impatient Gardener. With her down-to-earth Wisconsin wisdom and general smart-assery, she'll get us all in good shape — or at least slap us around a little over a cocktail.

Cue the latest running controversy because it had been a few weeks.  But first (!), Kara and Des update you on their lives including the latest race from Colt, and of course, Des's final preparation for Marathon des Sables. She will soon be running self-supported across the Sahara desert. In fact, she lands in Morocco on the very day this episode posts. Go Des... we are ALL cheering for you! Then if you missed it, Emma Bates posted on IG about getting "dropped" by UCAN (her nutrition sponsor) because of her pregnancy. Naturally, the world came to her defense, and now Emma is sharing more of her story on Ali Feller's podcast. Kara is no stranger to this issue, so she and Des dig into it, raising some good questions on the topic as well as a host of related ones. The short answer is... it's complicated, as many things are for athletes that are contractors and not in-house employees. Overall though, more rights and support for pregnant athletes is needed, and Alysia Montaño and Allyson Felix are leading the way. If you want to help, then put your time, energy, and money behind their work! Finally, we want to thank Lagoon for supporting the podcast (as well as Emma Bates even through her pregnancy)!

More than a thousand ships are stranded outside the Strait of Hormuz, bobbing in the water. A big reason? Insurance. War insurance premiums have skyrocketed since the war with Iran began. It's an add-on that covers things regular insurance doesn't, like missile strikes. And shippers don't want to foot the bill or put their crews at risk. Cue the traffic jam. On today's show, how a critical trade chokepoint became the parking lot of the sea. And taking stock of President Trump's plan to offer reinsurance to get these ships sailing again.Related episodes: How the 'shadow fleet' helps Russia skirt sanctionsWill Iran block the Strait of Hormuz? For sponsor-free episodes of The Indicator from Planet Money, subscribe to Planet Money+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org.

What if the point of hobbies isn't to be good at them? (A novel idea for us recovering perfectionists, I know . . . ) Ever start a hobby with excitement, only to face the harsh reality that you're not good at it? Welcome to my February Hobby Year update. This month I dove into sketching wildflowers, and QUICKLY discovered I'm bad at it. Really bad. But here's the twist: I promised to send these amateur drawings to new Supporters as handmade cards. Cue the inner perfectionist panic. In this episode, I'm sharing what happened when I sat down with my sketch book, why promising these cards to people accidentally turned my hobby into a job, and the permission I had to give myself to be bad at something and share it anyway. Plus: a ballet class update (spoiler: I haven't been back yet), why February was supposed to be my "easy hobby month" (oops!), and my plans to tackle quilting in March. If you've ever struggled to make time for hobbies, felt embarrassed about not being instantly good at something, or wondered if it's okay to enjoy imperfect pursuits—this one's for you.
