What does fuelling a Premier League footballer really look like? This week, we're joined by Ted Munson, Brentford FC's Lead Performance Nutritionist, whose journey has taken him through elite-level roles across football, rugby, Formula 1, and even international tournaments with Denmark's national team.

What you'll learn in this episode: How Ted landed his first role in elite sport – and the winding road to Brentford FC The five core nutrition principles he follows with Premier League players Why personalisation is essential – no two players are ever treated the same How to fuel players around training intensity, travel, and congested fixtures What a typical training week looks like nutritionally (yes, pancakes are involved) How elite strategies can be adapted by amateur players and coaches The biggest mistakes players make with fuelling – and how to fix them Why behaviour change and communication matter more than textbook knowledge Easy, affordable fuelling tips that work – no fancy products needed The importance of carbohydrate periodisation for both performance and body comp Whether you're a coach, a sports scientist, or just someone who plays five-a-side on a weekend, this episode is packed with practical advice, stories from the top, and a good dose of honesty about what works, what doesn't, and why a tray of Jaffa Cakes might not be such a bad idea.

His career has included roles with clubs such as Hull City, Millwall, MK Dons, Luton Town, and Harlequins Rugby, as well as consulting in Formula 1 and with the Danish national football team.

TWiV explains a cohort study of over one million Danish children which shows no evidence supporting an increased risk for autoimmune, atopic or allergic, or neurodevelopmental disorders associated with early childhood exposure to vaccines with aluminum-base adjuvants, and a study of antibodies induced by mRNA-1273 and NVX-CoV2373 COVID-19 vaccines which show that polyclonal antibodies against a single site on the spike N-terminal domain show immunodominance, high diversity, and limited cross-reactivity, indicating the need to direct antibody responses away from this site.

Story at-a-glance Micro workouts are brief, high-intensity exercise sessions that last 10 to 15 minutes. They're accessible for people with busy schedules or limited exercise options Research shows that doing just one high-intensity workout per week lowers cardiovascular death risk by 39% in men and 51% in women A Danish study found that just 10 minutes of workplace exercise reduced long-term sick leave, preventing 13% of extended absences The benefits of high-intensity workouts level off after a point. Doing more than one to two sessions per week doesn't offer added protection and may slightly reduce cardiovascular gains To begin structuring your micro workout routine, aim for two to three short cardio sessions and two strength workouts per week, focusing on core and large muscle groups

This one is both tender and sacred. In my latest podcast episode, I sat down with Ditte Young, a renowned Danish telepath and intuitive communicator also on The Telepathy Tapes, to share a deeply personal experience I felt could help others. A few weeks ago, Ditte facilitated a telepathic session with my non-verbal bonus daughter, Micaela. What came through — what Micaela shared without ever speaking a word — was transformative. We talk about what it means to truly listen — not with our ears, but with our hearts. ✨ If you've ever felt that someone was communicating with you energetically, soul to soul… ✨ If you've ever struggled to connect with a child, a loved one, or even your own inner knowing… ✨ Or if you're simply curious about the unseen world of empathy, intuition, telepathy, and spiritual communication… Please don't miss this one. I believe this conversation holds something for all of us. It changed how I see Micaela… and how I see the world. I hope it opens something in you, too. About Ditte Young Ditte Young is a renowned Danish animal communicator, telepath, and therapist who specializes in intuitive communication with both animals and humans — especially children with autism and other neurodivergent gifts. With over two decades of experience, she helps bridge the worlds of the seen and unseen, bringing messages of love, healing, and deeper understanding to families around the world. Learn more about Ditte's classes and work: Telepathy for Parents: https://ditteyoung.com/masterclass-for-parents/ Animal Telepathy Mastery: https://ditteyoung.net/animal-telepathy-mastery-online-course/ Enjoy this powerful conversation with Ditte Young! Takeaways Ditte Young is a renowned telepathic communicator and energetic healer. Telepathy involves thoughts, images, and emotions exchanged between souls. Children with autism can communicate telepathically, similar to animals. Emotional honesty is crucial in parenting neurodivergent children. Nonverbal communication can reveal deep insights and connections. Every child desires to be helpful and involved in their environment. Parents should allow children to learn through their own experiences, even if it leads to messiness. Understanding a child's emotions can enhance the parent-child bond. Healing often comes from recognizing and addressing personal triggers. Telepathy can be a powerful tool for understanding and connecting with nonverbal individuals. The presence of nonverbal autistic children offers profound lessons for humanity. Empathy is developed through suffering and life lessons. Children today are more spiritually aware and emotionally intelligent than previous generations. The outdated societal systems struggle to accommodate neurodivergent children. Telepathy can be activated by enhancing our five senses and being present. Integrity is crucial in telepathic communication, especially with vulnerable populations. Every individual has the potential to be telepathic; it requires trust in one's intuition. The focus should be on love and care for neurodivergent children rather than frustration. Collective consciousness is essential for societal change and growth. We all have a role in raising the energy and making a paradigm shift.

Today Razib talks to David Gress, a Danish historian. The son of an American literary scholar and a Danish writer, he grew up in Denmark, read Classics at Cambridge, and then earned a Ph.D. in medieval history from Bryn Mawr College in the US in 1981. During a fellowship form 1982-1992 at Stanford University's Hoover Institution, he published on Cold‑War strategy, German political culture, and Nordic security. He has been a visiting fellow and lecturer at Gonville & Caius College, Cambridge, fellow at the Danish Institute of International Affairs, an assistant professor of Classics at Aarhus University, and professor of the history of civilization at Boston University. He co‑directed the Center for the Study of America and the West at the Foreign Policy Research Institute in Philadelphia and remains a senior fellow of the Danish free‑market think tank CEPOS while writing a regular column for Jyllands‑Posten. His breakthrough book, From Plato to NATO: The Idea of the West and Its Opponents (1998), argues that Western success sprang from a hard‑edged fusion of Roman order, Germanic liberty, Christian morality, and Smithian economics, rather than being a single disgraceful arc from Greco‑Roman‐paganism to secular Enlightenment that bypassed the Middle Ages. Razib asks Gress how he would have written Plato to NATO today, more than 25 years later, and he says he would have emphasized Christianity's role in creating a unified Western culture out of Greco-Roman and Germanic diversity more. Gress also reiterates that he does not deny the Greek foundation of Western Civilization, but rather, his work was a corrective to a very thin and excessively motivated and partisan narrative that stripped out vast periods of European history. They also discuss Gress' own own peculiar identity, the son of an American, born to a Danish mother, raised in Denmark who converted to Catholicism as an adult, and how that all fits into a broader European identity. They also discuss the impact of mass immigration on the national identities of Europe in the last generation, and Gress' opinions as to the European future. Razib also asks Gress about the role that evolutionary ideas may have in shaping human history, and how his own views may have changed since From Plato to NATO. They also discuss when it is plausible to say that the West was a coherent idea, and whether the Protestant Reformation was the beginning of the end for the unitary civilization that was Latin Christendom.

var fyldt med glade gæster.En: It was summer, and the park was filled with happy guests.Da: Søren stod ved indgangen, hans øjne strålede af spænding.En: Søren stood at the entrance, his eyes shining with excitement.Da: Dette var hans første besøg i Tivoli sammen med hans bedste ven, Kasper, og deres nye ven, Mette.En: This was his first visit to Tivoli with his best friend, Kasper, and their new friend, Mette.Da: Kasper kiggede bekymret på Søren.En: Kasper looked at Søren with concern.Da: "Husk nu, du skal være forsigtig med maden her," sagde han.En: "Remember, you have to be careful with the food here," he said.Da: Søren havde en alvorlig peanutallergi, men i al sin ivrighed nikkede han bare og stilede videre mod de spændende boder.En: Søren had a severe peanut allergy, but in all his eagerness, he just nodded and headed towards the exciting stalls.Da: Mette førte an med stor selvtillid.En: Mette led the way with great confidence.Da: Hun havde været i Tivoli mange gange før og elskede at vise sine yndlingssteder.En: She had been to Tivoli many times before and loved showing her favorite places.Da: "Lad os starte med Dæmonen!"En: "Let's start with Dæmonen!"Da: foreslog hun.En: she suggested.Da: Drengene var enige, og snart fløj de igennem luften, skrigene blev opslugt af lyden af alle de andre forlystelser.En: The boys agreed, and soon they were flying through the air, their screams swallowed up by the sound of all the other rides.Da: Efter et par ture begyndte Søren at føle sig sulten.En: After a few rides, Søren started feeling hungry.Da: Duften af vafler, grillede kødspyd og friskbagte brød trak ham mod madboderne.En: The smell of waffles, grilled meat skewers, and freshly baked bread drew him towards the food stalls.Da: "Jeg vil prøve noget nyt," erklærede han.En: "I want to try something new," he declared.Da: Kasper så på ham med et skeptisk blik.En: Kasper looked at him with a skeptical gaze.Da: "Er du sikker?En: "Are you sure?Da: Måske bør

red.Da: "Jeg tror, der var peanuts i maden," sagde han med en svag stemme.En: "I think there were peanuts in the food," he said in a weak voice.Da: Panikken bredte sig hurtigt.En: Panic spread

listen to you from now on," he replied.Da: "Jeg har lært min lektie."En: "I've learned my lesson."Da: Da dagen gik på hæld, og solen begyndte at gå ned, sad de tre venner sammen på en bænk, lettet og taknemmelige.En: As the day came to an end, and the sun began to set, the three friends sat together on a bench, relieved and grateful.Da: Søren havde fået en vigtig lektion, og hans venskab med

Send us a textAbout 55% of outstanding US home mortgages have interest rates below 4% and a byproduct is that those homeowners are deeply reluctant to move because it would usually mean taking out a new mortgage at 6% or more.Enter Takara which says it has a way to resolve what it calls the mortgage lock in effect.On the show is Takara CEO Jonathan Arad who says the solution is to use a Danish-style mortgage payoff model to the U.S. market.This gives credit unions a way to offer principal discounts that unlock member mobility while creating new revenue opportunities and balance sheet flexibility.This is not hocus pocus. But I'll let Arad explain it in the show.It's for you if you want to light a fire under your mortgage originations.It also may be for you if you currently have a 30 year fixed rate mortgage with a very low interest rate and that's stopping you from moving.Understand this: the 30 year fixed rate mortgage is a US product. It just isn't common around the globe. But yet mortgages and home purchases flourish globally. Just maybe it's time for a change.Listen up.Like what you are hearing?

Transcript:Da: Tivoli Gardens summede af liv.En: Tivoli Gardens buzzed with life.Da: Det var en varm sommeraften, og luften var fyldt med duften af kandiserede mandler og lyden af glade grin.En: It was a warm summer evening, and the air was filled with the scent of candied almonds and the sound of happy laughter.Da: Farverne omkring var levende og næsten som i en drøm.En: The colors around were vivid and almost dream-like.Da: Mikkel og Freja gik side om side, lidt nervøse men spændte.En: Mikkel and Freja walked side by side, a little nervous but excited.Da: Mikkel havde haft en plan.En: Mikkel had a plan.Da: Han ville tage Freja med på den romantiske bådtur langs Tivoli Sø, måske vinde en bamse til hende i et spil og afslutte aftenen med is under stjernerne.En: He wanted to take Freja on a romantic boat ride along Tivoli Sø, maybe win her a teddy bear in a game and end the evening with ice cream under the stars.Da: Men Freja havde en anden ting i tankerne.En: But Freja had something else in mind.Da: Der var et mysterium, hun havde hørt om fra sin onkel.En: There was a mystery she had heard about from her uncle.Da: Noget mystisk var sket i Tivoli for år tilbage.En: Something mysterious had happened in Tivoli years ago.Da: "Har du hørt om den gamle skattejagt i Tivoli?"En: "Have you heard about the old treasure hunt in Tivoli?"Da: spurgte Freja pludseligt.En: Freja suddenly asked.Da: Mikkel kiggede på hende, lige dele forvirret og nysgerrig.En: Mikkel looked at her, equally confused and curious.Da: "Der skulle være en ledetråd gemt i den gamle labyrint," sagde hun med glitrende øjne.En: "There's supposed to be a clue hidden in the old maze," she said with sparkling eyes.Da: Mikkel tøvede.En: Mikkel hesitated.Da: Han ville så gerne imponere hende, og en skattejagt med en ukendt fare lød ikke som den perfekte date.En: He wanted so much to impress her, and a treasure hunt with unknown danger didn't sound like the perfect date.Da: Alligevel, Frejas entusiasme var smittende.En: Still, Freja's enthusiasm was contagious.Da: "Okay," sagde han til sidst.En: "Okay," he said finally.Da: "Lad os se, hvad vi kan finde."En: "Let's see what we can find."Da: De gik mod labyrinten.En: They headed toward the maze.Da: De snoede sig gennem de hækkevægge, og Freja studerede hvert hjørne og hver skygge.En: They wound through the hedge walls, and Freja studied every corner and every shadow.Da: Overalt omkring dem fortsatte Tivolis liv og glade lyde, men inde i labyrinten blev det hele lidt mere stille, lidt mere spændende.En: All around them, Tivoli's life and joyful sounds continued, but inside the maze, everything became a bit quieter, a bit more thrilling.Da: Pludselig stødte Freja ind i noget.En: Suddenly, Freja bumped into something.Da: Det var en lille trææske, halvt skjult i jorden.En: It was a small wooden box, half-buried in the ground.Da: Hun tog den op og åbnede låget.En: She picked it up and opened the lid.Da: Indeni lå et gammelt, falmet kort.En: Inside was an old, faded map.Da: "Dette må være det!"En: "This must be it!"Da: udbrød hun.En: she exclaimed.Da: Kortet viste en hemmelig rute til en skjult skat i hjertet af Tivoli.En: The map showed a secret route to a hidden treasure in the heart of Tivoli.Da: Mikkels hjerte bankede hurtigt.En: Mikkel's heart raced.Da: Dette var ikke, hvad han havde forventet, men deres jagt var spændende.En: This was not what he had expected, but their quest was exhilarating.Da: Han kunne mærke andrenalinet suse i hans krop.En: He could feel the adrenaline rushing through his body.Da: Han kiggede på Freja.En: He looked at Freja.Da: Hendes øjne strålede mere end nogensinde.En: Her eyes shone more brightly than ever.Da: "Skal vi?"En: "Shall we?"Da: spurgte han.En: he asked.Da: Freja nikkede begejstret.En: Freja nodded excitedly.Da: De fulgte kortet, der førte dem gennem de snævre stier og til sidst til en forsænket lysning, hvor en gammel kiste gemte på en håndfuld symbolske skatte – intet af monetær værdi, men fuld af eventyr og historie.En: They followed the map, which led them through the narrow paths and finally to a sunken clearing where an old chest hid a handful of symbolic treasures—nothing of monetary value, but full of adventure and history.Da: Aftenen endte ikke, som Mikkel havde planlagt, men eventyret bragte dem tættere sammen.En: The evening didn't end as Mikkel had planned, but the adventure brought them closer together.Da: Mikkel lærte at give slip på kontrol, omfavne det ukendte.En: Mikkel learned to let go of control, to embrace the unknown.Da: Freja fik smagen af eventyr, men hun indså også, hvor vigtigt det er at dele disse øjeblikke med nogen, der tænker på hende.En: Freja got a taste of adventure, but she also realized how important it is to share these moments with someone who cares about her.Da: Som de forlod Tivoli den nat, med de levende farver stadig glimtende bag dem, vidste begge, at de lige havde startet et nyt kapitel, sammen.En: As they left Tivoli that night, with the vivid colors still glimmering behind them, both knew they had just begun a new chapter, together.

Transcript:Da: På en solrig sommerdag kørte Emil, Astrid og Kasper i Emil's gamle bil gennem det bølgende landskab i Jylland.En: On a sunny summer day, Emil, Astrid, and Kasper drove in Emil's old car through the rolling landscape of Jylland.Da: De var på vej ud på et eventyr.En: They were off on an adventure.Da: De rullede ned ad de smalle landeveje mellem grønne marker fyldt med vilde blomster og majestætiske vindmøller.En: They rolled down the narrow country roads between green fields filled with wildflowers and majestic windmills.Da: Emil sad bag rattet og nynnede med på radioen.En: Emil was sitting behind the wheel, humming along with the radio.Da: Han bekymrede sig i hemmelighed om bilen og håbede, at den kunne klare turen.En: He secretly worried about the car and hoped it could make the trip.Da: Astrid kiggede drømmende ud på landskabet ved siden af ham, ivrig efter at tage billeder med sit kamera.En: Astrid was dreamily gazing out at the landscape beside him, eager to take pictures with her camera.Da: Hun ønskede, at hun kunne fange sommerens lys og liv.En: She wished she could capture the light and life of summer.Da: Bag i bilen sad Kasper og holdt øje med kortet.En: In the back of the car, Kasper was keeping an eye on the map.Da: Han var praktisk og ville sikre sig, at de ikke spildte deres tid.En: He was practical and wanted to ensure they didn't waste their time.Da: Pludselig hørtes en mærkelig lyd.En: Suddenly, a strange sound was heard.Da: Der kom røg fra bilens motor.En: Smoke was coming from the car's engine.Da: Emil stoppede bilen langs vejen.En: Emil pulled the car over to the side of the road.Da: "Åh nej," sukkede han.En: "Oh no," he sighed.Da: Astrid kiggede bekymret på ham, mens Kasper steg ud for at se nærmere på problemet.En: Astrid looked at him with concern while Kasper got out to take a closer look at the problem.Da: "Motoren er helt død," sagde Kasper med et opgivende suk.En: "The engine's completely dead," said Kasper with a defeated sigh.Da: Emil følte en klump i maven.En: Emil felt a lump in his stomach.Da: "Bare rolig, vi finder en løsning," forsøgte han at lyde overbevisende.En: "Don't worry, we'll find a solution," he tried to sound convincing.Da: Astrid forsøgte at opmuntre ved at foreslå, at de kunne tage nogle billeder imens.En: Astrid tried to encourage them by suggesting they could take some pictures in the meantime.Da: Kasper begyndte at undersøge værktøjskassen.En: Kasper began to delve into the toolbox.Da: "Vi kan klare det," sagde Emil og tog en dyb indånding.En: "We can handle this," said Emil, taking a deep breath.Da: Han kastede et blik på sine venner.En: He glanced at his friends.Da: "Astrid, kan du finde instruktionerne frem?En: "Astrid, can you find the instructions?Da: Kasper, hjælp mig med skruenøglerne," sagde Emil bestemt.En: Kasper, help me with the wrenches," said Emil decisively.Da: Mens de sammen forsøgte at reparere motoren, begyndte deres optimisme at falme.En: As they worked together to repair the engine, their optimism began to wane.Da: Astrid kiggede nervøst op ad vejen.En: Astrid nervously glanced up the road.Da: "Hvad hvis vi ikke kan komme videre?"En: "What if we can't move on?"Da: spurgte hun blidt.En: she asked gently.Da: Lige som håbet svandt, dukkede en lokal landmand op med sin traktor.En: Just as hope was fading, a local farmer appeared with his tractor.Da: "Har I brug for hjælp?"En: "Do you need help?"Da: spurgte han venligt.En: he asked kindly.Da: Emil tøvede.En: Emil hesitated.Da: Kunne de stole på denne fremmede?En: Could they trust this stranger?Da: Efter kort overvejelse nikkede Emil taknemmeligt.En: After a brief consideration, Emil nodded gratefully.Da: Landmanden kiggede kort på motoren og uddelte et par nyttige råd.En: The farmer took a quick look at the engine and offered a few helpful tips.Da: Med hans hjælp lykkedes det dem at få bilen i gang igen.En: With his assistance, they managed to get the car running again.Da: De takkede ham varmt, og han vinkede farvel, mens han kørte videre.En: They thanked him warmly, and he waved goodbye as he drove on.Da: Da de alle sad i bilen igen, føltes turen anderledes.En: As they

In today's podcast, we're heading slightly beyond the Tudor world — north to Scotland — to uncover the story of a young queen who deserves far more recognition than she gets. On this day in 1486, Queen Margaret of Denmark, consort of James III of Scotland, died at just 30 years old. But her brief life left a permanent mark on British history. Because of Margaret, Orkney and Shetland became — and remained — part of Scotland. A forgotten dowry, a pledged territory, and a queen who quietly changed the map of the British Isles. But there's so much more to her than diplomacy. Join me as I delve into the fascinating story of Margaret of Denmark — her Danish roots, her turbulent royal marriage, her influence on Scottish politics, and the tragic mystery of her early death. Had you heard of Margaret before? What do you think of her impact? Let me know in the comments below!

This week, Scott sat down with fellow Senior Editors Molly Reynolds and Alan Rozenshtein to talk through the week's big national security news, including:“One Bill to rule them all, One Bill to find them, One Bill to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.” Republicans in Congress narrowly enacted President Trump's “One Big Beautiful Bill” last week, just in advance of the July 4 deadline he had set early in the year. What will its contents mean for elements of Trump's national security agenda, including his immigration policies? And what does it say about his influence over fellow Republicans in Congress?“Even a Stopped Clock is Right More Often Than This Letter.” In response to a FOIA lawsuit, the Justice Department has released copies of the letters that it sent to tech companies regarding President Trump's pause on the enforcement of a statute intended to curtail TikTok's availability in the United States. In the letter, the Trump administration not only suggests that the law may unconstitutionally interfere with the president's authority over foreign affairs, but suggests that the president can “waive” the enforcement of civil penalties and otherwise commit not to enforce the law for certain periods of conduct. How persuasive are these legal arguments? And what explains tech companies' willingness to rely on them?“Nationwide, Not On Your Side.” At the end of its term last week, the Supreme Court issued a long-awaited decision in the birthright citizenship cases, wherein it sided with the Trump administration in ending the practice of “universal” (or nationwide) injunctions pursued by lower courts in many cases regarding challenges to government conduct. What with this holding mean, both for the birthright citizenship cases and for the broader legal system moving forward?In object lessons, Alan marveled at the majesty of Cranbrook Schools during a recent trip to Michigan. Scott's been here the whole time with a recommendation of Dropout TV's Game Changer. And Molly took us down a dark and dirty, Danish-derived, detective direction with Dept.
