Podcasts about currents

In this episode of the NCS Podcast Currents series, host Lauren Koffman, DO, MS, speaks with Swarna Rajagopalan, MD, MS, associate professor of neurology Cooper University Health Care about her recent co-authored Currents article on the role of ultrasound guidance in performing lumbar punctures in the neuroscience ICU. They discuss the limitations of the landmark-based technique, when ultrasound can improve safety and accuracy, and how point-of-care training supports providers. Dr. Rajagopalan also describes why neurointensivists should consider increasing their use of ultrasound in daily practice outside of traditional critical care procedures.

About this Episode Are you stuck in the cycle of trying to control everything in your relationship, only to find yourself drifting further away from the connection and harmony you truly crave? Sometimes, the harder we try to make things “right,” the more we lose sight of what makes love resilient, joyful, and honest. The truth is, love isn't about micromanaging or enforcing your idea of perfection—it's about learning to ride life's unpredictable waves with trust, acceptance, and a willingness to let go. In this episode, listeners are invited to explore how letting go of control and embracing the natural flow of love can transform the way they relate to their partners. Through personal stories, reflective questions, and practical guidance, this conversation offers insight into why acceptance and trust are essential for deepening intimacy and resilience in your relationship.

His newest book, The Way of the Wave: Nature's Model for Navigating Life's Currents, offers practical guidance for embracing life's unpredictability with greater ease, resilience, and inner peace. Daniel's work draws on decades of experience, blending personal stories, research, and wisdom to help others live more empowered, connected lives.

Happy New Moon, everyone!As promised, the Skies and Currents Virgo Season podcast is here. I am super excited to share this with you! As always, I had so much fun talking with Brandon, and I so appreciate their perspective and support.I hope it helps each of you navigate the shadowy season ahead.More information about my practice can be found on my website: Skies of Grace AstrologyFor more information about Brandon, check out their site: The Spiritual GayzWhite Drop Practice Informational Session | Sunday, August 24This Sunday at 9:30 am PST, Inner Currents is holding an informational session.As longtime followers of this podcast know, my former co-host (and now frequent guest host and collaborator) Theresa Ulfa runs an organization called Inner Currents.Inner Currents is a non-profit organization dedicated to assisting spiritual aspirants in cultivating deeper, more authentic relationships with themselves and with the Divine, as well as in pursuing profound spiritual accomplishments. I have been involved with Inner Currents since 2019, and the astro/intuitive collaboration between Theresa and me blossomed under the umbrella of the work we undertake there.What makes the organization truly special and profound is the space it provides for each individual to wrestle with, experience, and co-create a spiritual practice that feels authentic, innate, and free from the systems of control so many of us associate with organized religion. There is no expectation that all members orient toward the same face, idea, or concept of the Divine. No Divine personality is elevated above the rest. As someone who suffered greatly under the existential pressure of fundamentalist Christianity as a child, Inner Currents provided a space where my spiritual life could grow and flourish in ways I never believed possible.On Sunday, there will be an informational meeting about one of the main organizing principles and tools utilized in Inner Currents, called the White Drop, which is associated with the development of Bodhichitta.Here is the note from Theresa about the session: Join Geoffrey and Theresa this Sunday to learn about the main focus of Inner Currents: White Drop/Bodhicitta development, deity yoga, and how to develop a functional worldview that is congruent with your spiritual practice and aspirations.We'll also discuss the subtle structures included in the practice, how to use the available tools, and our long-term participants will offer insight into their own experiences with the White Drop work. This event will be recorded and available for anyone who can't attend live, but it is an excellent opportunity to ask questions in person. We look forward to seeing everyone then!All are welcome in this space. If anyone is interested in joining the session, you should email Thersa at theresajulfa@gmail.com Get full access to Skies and Currents at skiesofgrace.substack.com/subscribe

I was reading Brandon Sanderson's latest novel, Wind and Truth, when I came across a sentence that stopped me cold: "A stronger current makes for stronger fish."That's it. That's what entrepreneurship is.We're constantly encountering currents that either facilitate what we want to accomplish—the businesses we want to build, the lives we want to create—or they oppose us, trying to sweep us into dangerous waters. These currents change all the time. They vary in strength depending on where you are in your journey. And here's the thing: they're mostly invisible until you learn to feel them.Someone on Twitter asked me what my top three currents were after I shared this thought. It turned out to be a revealing exercise—assessing what I'm exposed to, what I'm dealing with, and how I'm navigating these forces. So let me share what I've discovered about the currents pulling at me as I build Podscan.This episode of The Bootstraped Founder is sponsored by Paddle.com — The Web Revenue Lab SeriesThe blog post: https://thebootstrappedfounder.com/the-currents-of-a-founder/The podcast episode: https://tbf.fm/episodes/411-the-currents-of-a-founderCheck out Podscan, the Podcast database that transcribes every podcast episode out there minutes after it gets released: https://podscan.fmSend me a voicemail on Podline: https://podline.fm/arvidYou'll find my weekly article on my blog: https://thebootstrappedfounder.comPodcast: https://thebootstrappedfounder.com/podcastNewsletter: https://thebootstrappedfounder.com/newsletterMy book Zero to Sold: https://zerotosold.com/My book The Embedded Entrepreneur: https://embeddedentrepreneur.com/My course Find Your Following: https://findyourfollowing.comHere are a few tools I use.

Over 20 severed human feet have mysteriously washed ashore along the coastlines of British Columbia and Washington since 2007—each one inside a sneaker. With no matching bodies, and no clear foul play, the phenomenon captured global attention and ignited a firestorm of urban legends, hoaxes, and theories.In this gripping true crime deep dive, we explore the eerie timeline of these chilling discoveries, uncover the forensic science that explains how feet can naturally disarticulate, and examine the media frenzy that turned a natural phenomenon into modern-day folklore.Was it a serial killer? A string of tragic accidents? Or something even stranger?We're telling that story tonight

From ancient empires to modern metropolises, what do rivers tell us about the way humans build, worship, and fight for their worlds? In this episode, historian Vanessa Taylor joins host Caroline Dodds Pennock to explore the powerful role rivers have played in shaping human history, culture, and identity. Drawing from her new book, Seven Rivers, Vanessa takes us on a journey down the Nile, Danube, Niger, Mississippi, Ganges, Yangtze, and Thames to explore the empires built along their banks, the spiritual and cultural significance these waterways hold, and how they've been used — and abused — throughout history. Vanessa Taylor is a leading environmental historian and expert on the politics of water. Her book, Seven Rivers: A Journey Through the Currents of Human History, is available now.

Send us a textStep into the shocking and brilliant world of Nikola Tesla in this deep-dive episode of The Days Grimm! Join hosts Brian Day and Thomas Grimm as they uncover the electrifying life of the man who arguably invented the modern world, from his fierce rivalry with Thomas Edison to the wild conspiracy theories that surround his work today.We explore Tesla's incredible mind, capable of visualizing complex inventions and running simulations entirely in his head. Discover the truth behind the "War of the Currents," where Tesla's Alternating Current (AC) battled Edison's Direct Current (DC) , a conflict that led Edison to publicly electrocute animals, including an elephant named Topsy, to "prove" AC was dangerous.Was Tesla's genius too much for the world? We discuss his partnership with J.P. Morgan , the ambitious Wardenclyffe Tower meant to provide free wireless energy to the world , and why it was ultimately abandoned. Plus, we delve into his other groundbreaking inventions, including the Tesla Coil, remote controls , and his successful attempt to wirelessly light 200 light bulbs from 25 miles away.Finally, we unpack the bizarre and fascinating aspects of Tesla's later life, from his peculiar romantic relationship with a pigeon to the persistent conspiracy theories involving a "death ray" and how his papers allegedly ended up in the hands of John G. Trump, Donald Trump's ancestor.What do you think is Tesla's most underrated invention?

If you want to avoid sharks, then steer clear of the mountains. No, we're not talking about the next “Sharknado” movie. It's underwater mountains—called “seamounts”—that you want to avoid. A recent study found there were 40 times more sharks around a couple of shallow seamounts than in the surrounding open ocean.Researchers spent about 20 months perusing three seamounts near Ascension Island—a lonely spot in the South Atlantic Ocean. The peaks of two of the seamounts rose to within a few hundred feet of the surface, while the third was deeper.Scientists studied life in the region with underwater video cameras, surface counts, and sonar scans. And they placed tracking devices on several sharks and tunas.They found that all forms of life were more abundant around the two shallower seamounts, from the tiniest organisms all the way up to top-level predators. But the higher up the food web, the greater the abundance compared to the open ocean.Some of the tagged sharks and tunas hung around a single seamount. A few others made appearances at both. And one intrepid shark journeyed up to 85 miles out to sea.The researchers aren't sure why there's such a concentration of sharks and other life at the seamounts. Currents may push more prey up the sides of the mountains, attracting larger fish. Or perhaps the currents just make it harder for prey to escape. Whatever the reason, the sharks just loved hanging around these underwater mountains.

“US GLOBAL CURRENTS “Swirling Kite Energy” Astrological Perspective.We will be exploring an enduring astrological sky pattern called the Kite, which will influence the coming months. Not only Mercury, but also Saturn, Neptune, and Pluto are moving in apparent retrograde relative to Mother Earth. Even newly anointed Uranus turns its gaze backward in early September.In the April 20th episode of US Global Currents, we focused on a proverbial teeter-totter energy of give and take. This was an in-between period, following the Aries Equinox energies and eclipses near our lunar nodal phase of North Node in Pisces and South Node in Virgo. Although Neptune had recently entered fiery Aries, three major planetary cycles—Saturn, Jupiter, and Uranus—were closing, making our experience feel like a tide ebbing and flowing.Now, four months later, this caravan of outer planets has shifted into apparent retrograde motion, re-entering their zodiac signs from their last cycle. We find ourselves deeply reflecting on many things, much like Mercury's Hermetic message that echoes “as above, so below,” This includes in reverse, and moving between inward direction to outward expression,” said Sue Minahan, founder, and host of the weekly show. “Whether in the USA or internationally, these times resonate with strong patterns between dynamic archetypal energies. Importantly, the slower planets form trines and sextiles with the personal planets, creating a powerful, soaring Kite pattern through September. Mars in Libra—and every planet entering Libra in the cosmic map—projects vibrational waves that rock opportunity as we learn to balance creation in the moment”Join Sue Rose Minahan of Kailua-Kona, Big Island of Hawaii featuring Justin Crockett Elzie of Port Angeles, Washington, and Robert J Pacitti of Penn Run, Pennsylvania.

10 years ago today, Tame Impala’s Currents was released.

Physicist and fusion researcher Eric Lerner presents a sweeping critique of the Big Bang theory and the standard model of cosmology at Demysticon 25. He builds on the foundations of plasma physics and the work of Nobel laureate Hannes Alfvén to outline an alternative cosmological framework rooted in known physical laws—gravity, nuclear fusion, and electromagnetic plasma behavior—rather than hypothetical concepts like dark matter, dark energy, or cosmic inflation. He explores how filamentary plasma structures may account for galaxy formation, how fusion research using dense plasma focus devices parallels cosmic processes, and how the cosmic microwave background may not be relic radiation from a singular origin. Merging astrophysics, plasma cosmology, and energy research, this talk reframes the origin and structure of the universe—and calls into question the prevailing narratives at the heart of modern theoretical physics.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-show00:00 Go!

Nuclear power is enjoying a surge of bipartisan support in the U.S., fueled by rising energy demand and state climate goals. But despite the momentum, the industry itself may be nuclear's biggest obstacle — a challenge that could shape the future of America's power supply.

Plus, President Donald Trump's nominee to lead the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration promised to bring staffing levels up to meet the needs of the National Weather Service's local offices.

Hello, the July forecast is finally out!I was lucky to be joined again by Brandon Alter of the Spiritual Gayz and, as always, feel blessed to have the opportunity to chat with them about the astrology of the month ahead.As of yesterday, Uranus has officially moved into Gemini. The planet of disruption, innovation, and eccentricity will remain here until November, before his brief retrograde back into Taurus. This is a huge transition and arranges all three of the outer planets into aspect with one another. I'll be speaking and writing more on this soon, but these are very loud transits as well as energies we'll be contending with for years to come. July offers some important clues for understanding what themes, conflicts, and adventures this configuration has in store for us long term.Uranus is a disruptive energy. He moves towards liberation. He moves towards eccentricity. But his methods are unpredictable by design. Unlike the fixed earth sign he's finally departed, Gemini is a territory inclined to amplify Uranus' hijinks, rather than resist them.While it's not possible to predict or control the energy of Uranus, cultivating an intention for an openness to change and innovation in the Gemini area of life will go a long way in supporting this 7-year transit.I encourage all of you to take a look at what Gemini rules in your chart. If you need help, comment with your rising sign, and I will let you know where to look.Our community meeting this month will be held on Sunday, July 20 at 5 PM PST.This is a free community meeting—you are all welcome to join: Zoom Link.We will be discussing one of the most potent and potentially precarious transits of the month: Mars conjunct Ketu (South Node).Mars–Ketu conjunctions assist us in cutting away personal patterns, attachments, and ideas that hold us back from the fullest expression of ourselves. They also tend to correspond to periods of collective loss and terror. I intend to hold this community space in the spirit of embracing the wholeness of everything we are currently experiencing. We are living through an astrological window of intensity that is manifesting as many displays of collective horror and trauma, but also offers powerful fuel for personal and collective change. We are experiencing transits of notably rare tension and maleficence, shining alongside transits of beauty, fullness, and beneficence.There are no easy, obvious approaches to navigating these times. But I would like to do as much as I can to help you all strategize pathways for action and ease—to take advantage of the good while remaining clearheaded about the challenges.s.As a reminder, this is my first year teaching the zodiac! I have received a request to move my classes earlier in the zodiacal season, so the next class will be the first weekend of Leo.Saturday, July 26 at 10 AM.Mark your calendars and register here.With Love, Christina Get full access to Skies and Currents at skiesofgrace.substack.com/subscribe

Marina and Kai dive to investigate the mysterious underwater structures she glimpsed on sonar. What they discover defies explanation—ancient ruins that pulse with their own light and emit haunting music that compels Marina despite her scientific skepticism. When their submersible's life support systems fail due to acoustic interference from the structures, Kai guides them to an underwater cave system for emergency repairs. His uncanny knowledge of these hidden depths and his evasive answers about his background deepen Marina's suspicions that there's far more to Kai Nereon than he's revealed.To become a premium subscriber (no ads and no feed drops) visit caloroga.com/plus.   For Apple users, hit the banner on your Apple podcasts app which seays UNINTERRUPTED LISTENING.

A talk by Thanissaro Bhikkhu entitled "Cut the Currents"

High above the meeting point of two mighty rivers, where the Susquehanna splits into its North and West Branches, stands Shikellamy State Park. Perched on a forested bluff in central Pennsylvania, this park offers more than just scenic overlooks. It's a gateway to the natural beauty, cultural history and outdoor adventure of the Susquehanna River Valley. Shikellamy State Park is a place where geography and heritage intersect. The story of the park and the story of the Native American tribes that called it home are forever intertwined. In the 1700s, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy took control of the surrounding area.  Nearby Shamokin – whose name means “the Place of Eels” - was one of the most important Indigenous cities in Pennsylvania during that time. The resident Haudenosaunee welcomed tribes including the Conestoga, Conoy, Nanticoke, Tuscarora, Lenape and the Shawnee displaced by settlers.The French and Indian War, the American Revolution and the purchase of the land by Commonwealth of Pennsylvania forced many of the Indigenous people in Pennsylvania to move west or north.The park – which is made of up two separate sections – held numerous purposes over the years. It was an air strip, homestead, farm, “pleasure ground,” amusement center and hotel before becoming a state park in 1962. Shikellamy State Park's two distinct areas is the marina along the river in Sunbury, and the scenic overlook high on the bluff in Northumberland. Each area offers a different experience—from peaceful boating and fishing on the Susquehanna to breathtaking vistas of the valley below. It's a rare park that invites you both to explore water-level wilderness and to rise above it all for a bird's-eye view.Shikellamy's unique location has made it a hub for both recreation and reflection—a place where families come to picnic, hikers go to find solitude, and birders gather to catch sight of bald eagles soaring over the river.But Shikellamy isn't just about quiet beauty—it's about connection. The park sits at the crossroads of culture, drawing in people from nearby towns and beyond. Whether it's for community events, wildlife watching at the overlook, or simply taking a moment to breathe in the valley air, visitors come here to feel grounded.There's a rhythm to this park—seasonal, historical, natural. Spring floods give way to summer sun, and autumn paints the hills in brilliant reds and golds. And in every season, Shikellamy offers a chance to see the world from a new perspective—both literally and figuratively.On this episode, I speak with Ben Bender. Ben is the park manager of the Shikellamy State Park complex. Be sure to support our 2025 sponsors:Keystone Trails AssociationPurple Lizard MapsPennsylvania Parks and Forests FoundationSisters' SunflowersSupport the showVisit our website to learn more about the podcast, to purchase merch and to find out about our incredible sponsors.
