As we close out the year, this special Holiday episode of the SuperLife Podcast weaves together the most powerful moments, conversations, and awakenings from an extraordinary season of inquiry. From environmental toxins and metabolic health to resilience, trauma, consciousness, and human potential, this episode is a reminder that living a SuperLife isn't about perfection — it's about awareness, sovereignty, and choosing differently. This year challenged assumptions, exposed broken systems, and offered real tools for healing — physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. This episode is both a reflection and a recalibration: a moment to pause, integrate, and step forward with clarity into what's next.     What You'll Learn 00:00 – Welcome to SuperLife + why this Holiday Special matter 02:10 - Year-end reflection: the conversations that cracked us open 07:26 - Dr. Aly Cohen on how her golden retriever's autoimmune illness revealed the unregulated chemical soup in our daily products. 10:57 - Dr. Laurie Santos on the arrival fallacy of happiness and why our brains are wired to get used to the good life. 16:03 - Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson on how a study on Navy dolphins led to the accidental discovery of C15, a fatty acid that may slow aging. 20:55 - Jennifer Cohen on how a simple "spit and catch" game taught her that boredom forces kids to build resiliency. 24:05 - Ian Clark on the moment he refused a terminal prognosis and committed to finding a different way to heal. 29:59 - Jim Poole on inventing NuCalm, a technology using physics and math to bypass trauma responses and restore the brain. 35:32 - Dr. Richard J. Brown on how his muscle mass provided the metabolic reserve needed to heal from severe burns after a grill explosion. 39:45 - Chef Bailey Ruskus on how the failure of Western medicine regarding her chronic illness led her to find her cure and calling in the kitchen. 48:48 - Sheila Morovati on how asking one question about default settings on food apps saved over a billion pieces of plastic cutlery. 53:28 - Cameron Waters on the theory that Jesus wasn't angry about money in the temple, but about the massive animal slaughter taking place. 01:01:04 - Redfoo on a masterclass in manifestation and how he decided his work was play. 01:08:24 - Ilan Sobel on bio-farming and mirroring nature to grow specific cells without soil. 01:14:08 - Dr. Jessica Stavale on fascia, the bioelectric web that holds us together and might be the missing link to understanding chronic pain. 01:18:05 - Gabrielle Reece on the ultimatum she gave her husband Laird Hamilton that saved their marriage and deepened their love. 01:22:29 - Johnny Fine on the vulnerability of the power grid and practical solar solutions for an EMP event. 01:28:26 - Josh Macin on discovering a physical parasite that changed his understanding of his own depression and intrusive thoughts. 01:34:40 - Gustavo Herman Moro on finding a literal treasure beneath the sea during a lightning storm just as time was running out. 01:39:26 - Dani Fontaine on the endocannabinoid system as the body's master thermostat and regulating signal system. 01:44:02 - Catharine Arnston on how algae acts as a firefighter for our mitochondria to put out the flames of inflammation. 01:49:26 - Dr. Mindy Pelz on the grandmother hypothesis and how menopause rewires the female brain for leadership. 01:55:00 - Dr. Max Butterfield on the surprising mismatch between what men think women find attractive versus what they actually do. 01:59:00 - Kyle Nicolaides on an Ayahuasca ceremony where he realized depression was an initiation rather than a defect. 02:03:52 - Dr. Aimee Apigian on why you cannot think your way out of trauma and why the body must physically move through the experience. 02:09:00 - Aaron Bigelow on the science of the human voice as a holographic blueprint for our health. 02:13:30 - Charlie Goldsmith on the moment he first felt magnetic energy in his hands at 18 years old and his first accidental healing. 02:21:10 - Maya Raichoora on using visualization to heal her body and walk again after a rude comment from a nurse ignited her fight. 02:25:20 - Dr. Lori Woodley on the "cross backwards" technique to break autopilot and stop reactive behavior. 02:29:32 - Chloe Temtchine on flipping the script from victimhood to empowerment to reclaim her health from a terminal diagnosis. 02:35:10 - Jürgen Horn on a somatic release technique for the jaw that shifted his body enough for his wisdom teeth to grow in. 02:39:23 - Jeff Turner on getting crushed in a rap battle in high school and finding the humor that launched his career. 02:44:53 - Dr. Michelle Jorgensen on how her own mercury poisoning led her to uncover the toxic truth about modern dentistry. 02:50:05 - Robyn O'Brien on the character assassination she endured when she blew the whistle on the food industry and how it forged her resilience. 02:54:16 - Darin synthesizes the year's insights into a final message of empowerment, reminding listeners that they are not victims but possess the agency and tools to actively shape their own biology and destiny.     Thank You to Our Sponsors Therasage: Go to www.therasage.com and use code DARIN at checkout for 15% off Our Place: Toxic-free, durable cookware that supports healthy cooking.

In this solo episode of The SuperLife Podcast, Darin Olien dives deep into the true biology of energy—not motivation, not stimulants, not willpower, but the mitochondria themselves. Inspired by a groundbreaking conversation between Dr. Andrew Huberman and Dr. Martin Picard, Darin reframes energy as an emergent property of how we live, not just what we eat or how much we sleep. This episode explores how mitochondria act as signal translators, listening to your food, stress, sleep, movement, emotions, purpose, and environment—and turning those signals into either vitality or depletion. Darin connects cutting-edge mitochondrial science with real-world practices around recovery, meaningful stress, consistency, connection, and alignment, showing how true longevity and resilience are built at the cellular level.     What You'll Learn in This Episode 00:00  – Welcome to SuperLife & the mission of sovereignty and vitality 00:32 – Thera Sage sponsor: family-built healing tech & red light 02:10 – Why this episode is different: diving into cellular energy 02:42 – Inspiration from Huberman & Picard's mitochondria conversation 03:11 – Rethinking mitochondria: not just ATP, but information processors 04:03 – Energy as potential for change, not calories or fuel 04:39 – How thoughts, emotions, food, and stress shape energy 05:05 – Energy is dynamic, adaptive, and responsive to how you live 06:02 – Mitochondria as signal integrators: sleep, hormones, purpose, connection 06:50 – Mitochondria as antennas, not factories 07:16 – Translating life experience into biological energy 08:09 – Why we don't feel "energy," we feel energy flow 08:53 – Flow states, purpose, and why passion creates vitality 09:32 – Different organs, different mitochondrial roles 10:26 – Why energy optimization is not one-size-fits-all 10:49 – Energy resistance: the hidden cause of fatigue and burnout 11:47 – Chronic stress, poor sleep, and ultra-processed food as energy blockers 12:12 – Why recovery is non-negotiable for longevity 12:20 – Caldera Lab sponsor: clean, performance-driven skincare 14:20 – The danger of constant output without recovery 14:45 – Sleep as a mitochondrial reset and repair system 15:40 – Exercise, adaptation, and why recovery completes the signal 16:22 – Intentional stress vs. chronic stress 17:29 – Food as information, not just fuel 18:05 – Time-restricted eating, fresh food, and metabolic signaling 18:27 – Meaning, purpose, and emotional states as cellular inputs 19:23 – Mitochondria, aging, and the potential reversibility of decline 20:06 – SuperLife framework: alignment over optimization 20:37 – Consistency beats intensity at the cellular level 21:19 – Stable rhythms: sleep, nourishment, hydration, movement 21:45 – Stillness, meditation, and parasympathetic repair 22:35 – Growth requires both resistance and recovery 24:44 – Connection, community, and loneliness as biological signals 25:27 – Eliminating fatal conveniences to restore vitality 26:02 – Your mitochondria are listening—change the signals 26:21 – Honoring Huberman & Picard's contribution to human health 27:12 – Energy flow as the foundation of a SuperLife 28:11 – Closing reflections and invitation to apply this work     Thank You to Our Sponsors Therasage: Go to www.therasage.com and use code DARIN at checkout for 15% off Caldera Lab: Experience the clinically proven benefits of Caldera Lab's clean skincare regimen and enjoy 20% off your order by visiting calderalab.com/darin and using code DARIN at checkout.     Join the SuperLife Community Get Darin's deeper wellness breakdowns — beyond social media restrictions: Weekly voice notes Ingredient deep dives Wellness challenges Energy + consciousness tools Community accountability Extended episodes Join for $7.49/month → https://patreon.com/darinolien     Find More from Darin Olien: Instagram: @darinolien Podcast: SuperLife Podcast Website: superlife.com Book: Fatal Conveniences     Key Takeaway "Your mitochondria are not broken.

Week 16 Recap: Darin's Hot Hand and Ed's Christmas ConundrumThe NFL season is winding down, and the stakes for the "Big Bold Predictions" segment are higher than ever. Darin Hayes and Ed Kleese met to review a highly dramatic Week 16, which featured incredible comebacks, upsets, and holiday chaos, before gearing up for Week 17.Week 16: Darin's Strong ShowingDarin had a strong performance, netting 5 points, primarily due to correctly calling the close, high-stakes victory for the Seahawks over the Rams and, more impressively, the Bears upsetting the Packers. Darin earned high praise for predicting Caleb Williams would lead the Bears to a late-game win, which he did via an incredible overtime touchdown after a muffed onside kick.Ed, unfortunately, only secured 2 points for the week, which came entirely from also picking the Seahawks. He missed on the Bears and the Patriots upsetting the Ravens (a one-point partial credit for Darin). Both hosts expressed disappointment over the Colts' defense failing to back up Philip Rivers' valiant "Disney story" effort to upset the 49ers.The scoring left Darin leading with 77 total points to Ed's 74 as they moved into the final two weeks of the regular season.The Lions Controversy and Holiday DramaThe review concluded with a deep dive into the controversial final play of the Lions-Steelers game, where an offensive pass interference call on Amon-Ra St. Brown nullified a dramatic, potential game-winning lateral. The main focus, however, quickly shifted to the upcoming holiday schedule.Ed expressed anxiety about his team, the Commanders, playing the Cowboys on Christmas Day. Stating that he has “matured,” Ed claimed he would ignore the noon kick-off to focus on family, a statement Darin immediately declared his first Bold Prediction for the week: "Your family's going to call BS on this and you will be caught."Week 17 Predictions: Pending the PicksThe hosts transitioned to making their official Week 17 game picks. However, the discussion ended immediately after Darin's non-game prediction about Ed's impending holiday conflict. The suspense hangs in the air: who will gain ground in the final week of the fantasy regular season? We await the actual game-by-game predictions from Darin and Ed that will determine their final standings.Chalk, Upsets, and Double-Digit Dominance: Ed and Darin's Wild Week 17 NFL PicksThe NFL playoff picture is tightening, and with high-stakes games dominating the schedule, our analysts, Ed Kleese and Darin Hayes, are stepping out with some truly aggressive predictions for Week 17. From packaged Christmas Day favorites to huge underdog victories, here is a breakdown of their boldest calls, which they are betting points on.Ed Kleese: The Favorite's AdvocateEd is betting heavily on the favorites to handle their business against injury-riddled teams, particularly on the holiday schedule.Christmas Day Chalk:Ed packaged his first pick, wagering thatall three heavy favoriteson Christmas Day—the Cowboys, the Lions, and the Broncos—will win their respective matchups easily against opponents using backup or third-string quarterbacks.Seahawks Roll the Panthers:He predicts that the Seattle Seahawks will have a comfortable road trip, beating the Carolina Panthersby 10 points or moreas they fight desperately to secure their spot in the NFC West race.Browns knock off SteelersNiners Dominance: On

Als ein Pastor an einem Weihnachtsmorgen in der Kirche eintraf, blieb er stehen, um die Krippenszene zu bewundern. Dabei fiel ihm auf, dass die Krippe leer war: Das Jesuskind fehlte! Offensichtlich war es gestohlen worden. Enttäuscht teilte er seiner Gemeinde den Vorfall mit. „Wenn das Jesuskind bis zum Ende des Tages zurückgebracht wird, werden keine Fragen gestellt“, sagte er. Aber die Krippe blieb leer. Am Nachmittag, betrübt und entmutigt, machte der Pastor einen Spaziergang durch die winterlichen Straßen. Vor sich sah er den sechsjährigen Tommy, warm eingepackt gegen die Kälte, wie er stolz einen leuchtend roten Wagen hinter sich herzog. Da er wusste, dass Tommys Familie finanziell zu kämpfen hatte, war der Pastor berührt von dem offensichtlichen Opfer der Eltern und beeilte sich, Tommy frohe Weihnachten zu wünschen und den neuen Wagen zu bewundern. Doch als er näherkam, bemerkte er, dass der Wagen nicht leer war. Darin lag, in eine Decke gewickelt, das Jesuskind! Ernst kniete der Pastor sich neben Tommy hin. Der Junge war zwar klein, aber alt genug, um zu wissen, dass Stehlen falsch ist. Der Pastor erklärte ihm das unmissverständlich, während Tommy mit Tränen in den Augen aufmerksam zuhörte. Die Tränen deutete der Pastor zunächst als Zeichen der Reue. Doch dann sagte Tommy: „Aber Pastor! Es war gar nicht so. Ich habe Jesus nicht gestohlen. Schon lange habe ich mir zu Weihnachten einen roten Wagen gewünscht. Ich habe Jesus versprochen, wenn ich einen bekomme, dann nehme ich ihn mit auf die erste Tour.

In this powerful and paradigm-shifting conversation, Darin Olien sits down with Dr. Mindy Pelz to dismantle everything we've been told about menopause, hormones, aging, and women's power. This is not a conversation about "fixing" women — it's about understanding a profound neurological, biological, and evolutionary transition that has been misunderstood, pathologized, and silenced for decades. Together, they explore why menopause is not the end of vitality, but the beginning of leadership, clarity, and sovereignty — and why reclaiming this transition could fundamentally reshape families, culture, and the future of women's health.     What You'll Learn (with Full Timecodes) 00:00:00 – Welcome to SuperLife: Why this episode matters for everyone, not just women 00:01:05 – The hidden cost of modern living: Plastics, endocrine disruption, and invisible hormonal stress 00:02:47 – Introducing Dr. Mindy Pelz: Why this conversation goes deeper than anything online 00:03:17 – Why women were excluded from medical research for decades 00:05:26 – The shocking pattern Dr. Pelz saw in women in their 40s: When life looks perfect but feels unbearable 00:06:41 – The suicide and divorce statistics no one talks about 00:07:27 – Why menopause exists at all: The evolutionary mystery 00:08:55 – The Grandmother Hypothesis: Why post-menopausal women kept humanity alive 00:10:08 – The brain shift that makes women stop people-pleasing 00:11:31 – Aging, fear, and the cultural erasure of women's wisdom 00:13:10 – The female brain before vs. after menopause 00:15:13 – Darin's reflection on his mother and invisible female labor 00:16:06 – Why community, safety, and oxytocin matter more than willpower 00:18:00 – Carol Gilligan's research: When girls stop knowing what they want 00:19:32 – Menopause as an awakening — not a breakdown 00:21:24 – Why men must be part of this conversation 00:22:26 – Leadership, aging, and reclaiming relevance 00:24:18 – Family dynamics when identity shifts 00:25:33 – The problem with outsourcing menopause to hormone therapy alone 00:27:00 – How to communicate needs without blame or collapse 00:30:07 – Metabolic health, insulin resistance, and early menopause 00:31:16 – The one blood marker every woman over 40 must track (HbA1c) 00:34:45 – The Hormonal Hierarchy explained: Cortisol, insulin, sex hormones, oxytocin 00:37:44 – Menopause as a cultural rite of passage we never created 00:39:31 – Dementia, Alzheimer's, and the glucose-starved brain 00:40:23 – Why fasting is neuroprotective for women 00:42:35 – How fasting helps menopausal belly weight 00:44:36 – Why shame keeps women disconnected from their power 00:45:34 – Why puberty and menopause are happening earlier 00:46:21 – Big Pharma, fear narratives, and the HRT conversation 00:48:35 – Empowerment vs. outsourcing health 00:50:11 – Why society fears powerful, post-menopausal women 00:52:11 – Dr. Pelz's personal breaking point and nervous system reset 00:55:33 – Redefining work, marriage, and self-permission 00:58:37 – Resentment as a diagnostic tool 01:01:15 – Neuroplasticity, obstacles, and the hero's journey 01:03:16 – Why going through discomfort rewires the brain 01:04:23 – Integration: Menopause as rebirth, leadership, and collective healing 01:12:25 – Closing reflections and final takeaways     Thank You to Our Sponsors: Therasage: Go to www.therasage.com and use code DARIN at checkout for 15% off Bite Toothpaste: Go to trybite.com/DARIN20 or use code DARIN20 for 20% off your first order Caldera Lab: Experience the clinically proven benefits of Caldera Lab's clean skincare regimen and enjoy 20% off your order by visiting calderalab.com/darin and using code DARIN at checkout.     Join the SuperLife Community Get Darin's deeper wellness breakdowns — beyond social media restrictions: Weekly voice notes Ingredient deep dives Wellness challenges Energy + consciousness tools Community accountability Extended episodes Join for $7.49/month → https://patreon.com/darinolien     Find More From Dr. Mindy Pelz: Website: drmindypelz.com Instagram: @dr.mindypelz Follow her YouTube Channel Podcast: The Resetter Podcast Order her new book: Age Like a Girl     Find More from Darin Olien: Instagram: @darinolien Podcast: SuperLife Website: https://superlife.com Book: Fatal Conveniences     Key Takeaway: Menopause isn't a failure of the female body — it's the moment a woman's brain rewires for truth, leadership, and independence.

In this deeply personal solo episode, Darin shares how to truly thrive through the holidays — not by white-knuckling your way through obligations, but by protecting your energy, honoring your body, and healing what's ready to be released. From food and supplements to trauma, forgiveness, boundaries, and future-self visualization, this episode is a roadmap for turning the holiday season into a period of restoration, clarity, and intentional creation.     What You'll Learn (Timecodes) [00:00] Welcome to SuperLife — sovereignty, possibility, and building a SuperLife together [00:32] Sponsor: EnergyBits — why spirulina and chlorella are some of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet [01:51] Thriving through the holidays — why this conversation goes deeper than food, fitness, and supplements [02:14] An honest check-in — are you enjoying the holidays or just trying to survive them? [03:10] Holiday triggers — why the season activates stress, old patterns, and family dynamics [03:41] The real goal — moving from white-knuckling to truly thriving [04:00] The power of questions — how inquiry opens intuition, clarity, and deeper listening [04:30] Defining the holidays — choosing love, connection, and generosity over pressure and obligation [05:28] Family roles and energetic boxes — outgrowing old identities while being around family [05:56] Energy economics — why obligation silently depletes your vitality [06:10] The thriving question — what would it take for your physical, emotional, and spiritual health to flourish? [06:28] A healing opportunity — addressing old wounds instead of pushing them down [06:56] Emotional release — why forgiveness heals you, not the other person [07:11] Permission to dream — using the holidays as a reset rather than a pause [07:25] Releasing judgment — letting go of pain without denying what you've lived through [07:40] Resilience and self-love — how self-love strengthens the nervous system [07:59] Nervous system capacity — why healing expands your ability to receive life [08:19] Presence over performance — why the holidays aren't about perfection [08:31] Practical strategies — eating well and maintaining discipline without waiting for January 1st [09:15] Environment design — why willpower alone doesn't work [09:30] Visualization as identity training — choosing who you want to be before the event [10:01] Darin's personal approach — sharing transparency rather than a prescription [10:09] Protecting energy — choosing not to go home for the holidays without guilt [10:57] Conscious boundaries — why clarity builds the future you want [11:49] Creating new traditions — why this is the most excited Darin has felt about the holidays [12:15] A year of rebuilding — closing a long cycle of challenge and stepping into what's next [13:03] Sponsor: Our Place Cookware — why non-toxic cookware matters for long-term health [15:39] Releasing early wounds — how unresolved birth trauma shows up as physical pain [16:38] Compassion and history — understanding family addiction and patterns without excusing them [17:36] Shedding the old — how excavation creates space for new love and opportunity [18:11] Building momentum — creating safety and love for the year ahead [18:51] Nourishment rhythms — simple, clean food as a reflection of inner clarity [19:31] Strength from pain — why strength equals resilience on every level [20:04] Darin's supplement stack — mitochondria, minerals, adaptogens, and hormone support [22:02] Nervous system regulation — NuCalm, meditation, and future-self visualization [23:09] Deep regulation tools — red light therapy, sauna, and creating stillness [25:02] Connection over content — replacing screen time with meaningful evening rituals [26:23] Future vision — integrating supplements, technology, and purpose-driven work [27:41] Creation as fuel — how intentional creation restores energy [27:57] Final holiday guidance — protect your energy, honor your body, and heal your heart [28:10] You are not alone — permission to build a life that feels good [28:45] Protecting attention — minimizing algorithmic noise to maintain intention [29:12] Leading from the heart — how one year of intention can change everything [29:30] Closing message — thriving, courage, and living your SuperLife [30:08] Join the SuperLife Patreon — where the deeper work continues [31:12] End of episode     Thank You to Our Sponsors: EnergyBits: Get 20% off your entire order by going to https://energybits.com/ and using code DARIN at checkout.

#329: Vibe coding - the practice of casually prompting AI to generate code solutions - has become increasingly popular, but its limitations become apparent when applications need to scale beyond personal use. While AI-assisted development can be powerful for proof of concepts and small internal tools, the transition from vibe-coded solutions to production-ready applications often requires experienced engineers to rebuild from scratch. The conversation explores three distinct levels of software development: personal tooling, internal applications, and public-facing systems. Each level demands different approaches, with vibe coding being most suitable for the first category but potentially problematic as complexity increases. The analogy of cooking illustrates this well - anyone can make a simple meal, but feeding hundreds of people requires professional expertise and proper infrastructure. Technical debt in the AI era presents new challenges and opportunities. Traditional software engineering principles like DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) and clean code practices may matter less when AI can quickly refactor and improve code. The future likely involves hybrid teams where business experts work alongside experienced engineers, with AI agents handling implementation details. Darin and Viktor examine how pair programming is evolving from developer-to-developer collaboration to human-to-AI partnerships, fundamentally changing how software gets built and maintained.   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

In our latest installment of the Pigskin Daily History Dispatch, we embark on a compelling journey through the current NFL landscape, contemplating the implications of Week 16 predictions as the season approaches its conclusion. Early Observations After NFL Week 15 (2025 Season)Based on the discussion between Darin Hayes and Ed Kleese, the primary observations after Week 15 revolved around two main themes: the plight of the Washington Commanders and the volatility of the league standings.The Washington Commanders' Annual December MiseryEd Kleese, a Commanders fan, detailed his team's historically difficult relationship with the late season:Status:The Commanders are characterized as "dead and done" and playing in a "dismal atmosphere" (3-10 vs. 2-11 game).Historical Context:In 17 out of the last 33 seasons, the Commanders have been either officially or essentially eliminated from the playoffs by December 1st. In 25 out of those 33 seasons, they were eliminated before the last game of the season.Current Sentiment:Kleese is "grappling with the bitterness" and now just "root[s] for around the league... just pain," hoping other teams join the misery. He noted the team is "playing out the string" and starting to think about 2026.High League Volatility and the "Roller Coaster" SeasonKleese noted that the "roller coaster of the NFL season" has been extreme, with inconsistent performances dominating the league:Inconsistent Teams:Kleese estimates that15 out of 32 teamshave had a "roller coaster season" (being significantly different from how they looked at the start or middle of the year).Examples of Volatility:Chiefs:Described as having a "bad start, good middle, miserable end."Dolphins:Started 1-6 before making a run.Commanders:Started 3-2 before an eight-game losing streak.Texans:Looked "dreadful in as recently as mid-October" but now look like Super Bowl contenders.Contenders Falling:Both the Buccaneers and Colts were 5-1 and near the one-seed at one point but are now fighting for their playoff lives or likely to miss entirely.Saints:Had a "rough, rough first three quarters" but look like they will "finish strong."Consistent Teams (Exceptions):The NFC West (Rams, Seahawks, 49ers) were singled out as teams that were "pretty good Week 1... and they're still good in December," showing consistency throughout.Conclusion on Season LengthThe hosts concluded that the volatility serves as a reminder "to not panic, not freak out" early in the year, and that in the NFL, "things may not be what they seem in the NFL because you got it. You got to make it through the long haul." They cautioned against dismissing any team that is "one in five."Week 15 Results SummaryHere are the points awarded to Darin and Ed for Week 15.Ravens vs. BengalsDarin - 2 Points (Perfect Call/Win)Ed- Not Discussed (Implied not a pick)Bills vs. PatriotsDarin -2 Points (Win)Ed- 2 Points (Win by 4+ points)Broncos vs. PackersDarin - 1 Point (Partial Credit - Win but score missed)Ed- 0 Points (Loss - Called Packers win)Chiefs vs. ChargersDarin - 0 Points (Loss)Ed- 0 Points (Loss)Panthers vs. SaintsDarin - 0 Points (Loss - Called Panthers rolling)Ed- Not Discussed (Implied not a pick)Steelers vs. DolphinsDarin - Not Discussed (Implied not a pick)Ed- 2 Points (Win - Called steamrolling)WEEK 15...

Ein Jahr voller starker Bücher geht zu Ende – da war die Auswahl für die Geschenktipps eine echte Herausforderung für Günter und Karla. Hier ihre 10 Tipps für Büchergeschenke unterm Christbaum: Ein großartiger Mutmacher ist das Buch „Mein Unglück beginnt damit, dass der Stromkreis als Rechteck abgebildet wird” von Saša Stanišić. Darin sind – gehaltene und ungehaltene – Reden gegen das Nichtstun und für die Eigenverantwortung gesammelt. Für kleine Leser*innen ist „Mittwochs surft der Pinguin“ von Johanna Prinz ein liebevolles, lustiges und lehrreiches Leseabenteuer zum Vorlesen. Pinguin Darwin ruft seine Freunde zur Rettungsaktion für ein paar im Eis eingeschlossene Wale auf. Buddhist Manfred Folkers und Volkswirt Niko Paech haben mit „All you need is less” ein Plädoyer für weniger Konsum und mehr Kooperation geschrieben. Ihre zwei unterschiedlichen Perspektiven ergeben ein unterhaltsames Manifest für eine Kultur des Genug. Bei Krimi-Lesern kommt der neue Håkan Nesser garantiert gut an. „Eines jungen Mannes Reise in die Nacht“ ist der neunte Fall von Kommissar Gunnar Barbarotti. Zwei Morde stellen ihn und seine Frau Eva Backman vor ein schier unlösbares Rätsel. Agatha Christie-Fans kommen hingegen mit „Der Mord in der Schlange” von Josephine Tey voll auf ihre Kosten. Im London der 20er Jahre wird in der Schlange vor einem Theater ein Mann erdolcht. Der erste Fall für Inspector Grant von Scotland Yard. Der opulente Bildband des Fotografenehepaars Peter & Beverly Pickford „Wilder Ozean“ ist eine Hommage an die ungezähmte Natur der Weltmeere. Spektakuläre Fotos und eine klare Botschaft zur Bewahrung dieser unersetzlichen Welt. Noch ein Mutmacher in Krisenzeiten: Das Buch „Hoffnungslos optimistisch” des Wissenschaftsjournalisten Dirk Steffens verbreitet Zuversicht und lenkt den Blick auf Lösungen statt auf Probleme. Eine gute Einstellung fürs neue Jahr. In „Das Beste! Mein Leben zwischen Pubertieren“ erzählt Jan Weiler absurde und witzige Geschichten, in denen die Welten der Pubertiere und der Erwachsenen kollidieren. Das Hörbuch ist perfekt für lange Autofahrten mit der ganzen Familie. Drachen, Liebe und Spice – „This Woven Kingdom” von Tahereh Mafi ist der Auftakt einer 5-teiligen Fantasy-Serie mit Suchtfaktor. Für Leser*innen ab 14 Jahren, die für ein paar Stunden der Realität entfliehen möchten. „Wir dachten, wir könnten fliegen“ ist eine Sammlung von 19 Kurzgeschichten über bedrohte Tierarten, verfasst von renommierten Schriftsteller*innen, darunter Caroline Wahl, T.C. Boyle, Alex Capus, Iris Wolf und Julia Schoch. Ein echter Geheimtipp für Vielleser*innen – dieses Buch kennen sie sicher noch nicht!

In den letzten Jahren dürfte auf diesem Kanal deutlich geworden sein, dass ich kein politischer Scharfmacher bin. Darum geht es mir auch nicht, sondern um Geldanlage. Ich bin allerdings überzeugt, dass wir vor einer außergewöhnlichen Phase stehen, in der sich die Dinge nicht einfach „wieder einruckeln“ und die Märkte anschließend so laufen wie immer. Wir sprechen über Entwicklungen, die mindestens so groß sind wie der KI-Trend, die Energiewende oder die Digitalisierung.
 Unter diesem Text findet ihr ein öffentlich zugängliches Dokument aus dem Weißen Haus: die „National Security Strategy of the United States of America“ vom November 2025. Darin wird sehr klar beschrieben, wie die USA ihre Strategie anlegen – auch im Umgang mit Verbündeten. Ebenso wird deutlich, wer als zentraler Rivale gilt: China. Es wird beschrieben, wie diese Rivalität beziehungsweise dieser Wettbewerb gewonnen werden soll – und das hat erhebliche Konsequenzen für uns als Anleger, aber auch für Europa. Denn wir sind der Gefahr ausgesetzt, zwischen den Fronten zerrieben zu werden, wenn wir keine eigene Strategie entwickeln. Wie also sieht diese Strategie konkret aus, und wie kann ich als Anleger daraus Chancen ableiten? Darüber spreche ich - legen wir los.

In this conversation, Darin sits down with his longtime friend, athlete, and powerhouse human Gabby Reece to talk about what it really takes to grow up without shutting down. They go into childhood chaos, the gift and cost of competitiveness, and what it means to stay "dangerous" in the best way as you age — in your body, your relationships, and your purpose.

This week, we sit down with Darin A. Lahners to explore the beginnings of his well-known series, What to Expect When You're Expecting: Worshipful Master's Edition. Drawing from his original reflections on preparing for the East, Darin discusses the nerves, doubts, hopes, and early lessons that shaped his first journey as Master. We trace the foundation he laid in that first piece (learning to relax, communicate, believe in oneself, plan with purpose, and invoke the blessing of Deity) and look at how those themes continue to resonate across his later writings. This conversation offers a candid look at leadership, expectation, and what it means to take on the Oriental Chair for the first time.

Für die Zukunft der Ukraine könnten diese Tage entscheidend sein. In verschiedenen Konstellationen wird über ein Ende des Krieges verhandelt. Den aktuellen Stand fasst in dieser Folge von Streitkräfte und Strategien Stefan Niemann zusammen. Er berichtet über die von der Ukraine und den Europäern überarbeitete Fassung des ursprünglich 28 Punkte umfassenden Plans der USA und über den Druck, den US-Präsident Trump ausübt – vor allem auf den ukrainischen Präsidenten Selenskyj. Trump drängt auf Wahlen in der Ukraine, wohlwissend, dass diese laut Verfassung in Kriegszeiten gar nicht möglich sind. Allerdings hat Selenskyj sich für Wahlen bereit erklärt – wenn bestimmte Bedingungen erfüllt sind – dazu zählen auch die immer wieder diskutierten Sicherheitsgarantien. Außerdem beleuchtet Stefan die aktuelle Lage an der Front. Im Interview spricht Host Anna Engelke mit Katja Gloger und Georg Mascolo über deren neues Buch „Das Versagen“. Darin beleuchten die Journalisten die Versäumnisse der deutschen Russlandpolitik in den vergangenen Jahrzehnten. „Was wir kritisieren, ist, dass in dem Moment, als es keinen Zweifel mehr daran gab, welchen Weg dieses Russland eingeschlagen hat, dass wir unsere beträchtliche ökonomische und politische Macht an keiner Stelle eingesetzt haben, um zumindest einmal (…) zu sagen, bis hierhin und nicht weiter“, so Mascolo. Erst nach Kriegsbeginn habe sich das geändert. Die Autoren analysieren die militärische Kooperation zwischen Russland und Deutschland nach 2008, die deutsche Unterstützung für die Ukraine nach Beginn des Krieges, sowie die laufenden Gespräche zwischen den USA, Russland und der Ukraine. Mascolo fürchtet ein bitteres Ende für die Ukraine. Mit Blick auf die nationale Sicherheitsstrategie der US-Regierung sagt Katja Gloger, Europa, allen voran Deutschland, stehe zwischen zwei nuklearen Supermächten und müsse sehr schnell Resilienz entwickeln.

In this deeply vulnerable solo episode, Darin dismantles one of the great myths of modern self-help: that transformation is something you're meant to "do alone." Drawing from neuroscience, anthropology, physiology, and personal experience, he reveals the biological truth — the human nervous system is designed to heal, grow, and stabilize in relationship, not isolation. This conversation explores why loneliness creates physiological damage, why belonging is a survival requirement (not a luxury), and how to intentionally rebuild the village your cells have been waiting for. If you've ever felt like you're doing all the "inner work" but still feel disconnected, this episode is the medicine.     What You'll Learn in This Episode 00:00:00 - Opening SuperLife intro narration. 00:00:32 - Sponsor: Therasage — family-driven healing technology, infrared and natural frequency support, details on discount. 00:02:11 - Darin begins the episode — "You were never meant to do this alone." 00:02:22 - The forgotten biology of community and why humans are not built for isolation. 00:03:01 - Your nervous system regulates in relationship — the vagus nerve, safety, co-regulation. 00:03:19 - Social engagement system — coherence, cortisol regulation, belonging as biology. 00:04:03 - Social pain = physical pain; the Baumeister research; the architecture of human connection. 00:05:01 - Tribes, proximity, shared life — Dunbar's number and the limits of real human networks. 00:05:30 - Loneliness as physiology — cortisol elevation, inflammation, disrupted sleep, gray-matter changes. 00:07:01 - Personal growth was never meant to be personal — autonomy, competence, relatedness, love. 00:07:55 - If nobody sees you, your nervous system can't relax — mirrors vs willpower. 00:08:31 - Social contagion of behavior — your network shapes your health. 00:09:01 - Who are you wired into? Environment as epigenetic instruction. 00:10:12 - Why online spaces generate stress instead of transformation. 00:10:35 - Darin's vision: community as a practice, not performance. 00:11:29 - Sponsor: Bite Toothpaste — plastic waste, sustainability, clean ingredients, discount code. 00:13:11 - What if growth wasn't a grind? What if healing was tribal again? 00:13:35 - Building intentional space — not fandom, not following, but practice. 00:14:11 - Supporting the nervous system through community; truth over scrolling. 00:15:04 - Why Patreon — structure, privacy, belonging, circle not feed. 00:15:23 - People looking for truth, depth, real connection — not performance. 00:15:51 - Start building your circle; align with those who align with you. 00:16:12 - You need to be seen, not fixed — community as transformation. 00:17:00 - One person can change your life — the power of being mirrored. 00:17:31 - Men's group, friendships, working out — the daily relational fabric. 00:18:01 - If you're lonely or disconnected, the desire for connection already shifts your biology. 00:18:41 - Darin reflects on a hard year, pain, stem cells, and the deeper healing found in being witnessed. 00:19:26 - Every cell responds when you say yes to deeper connection — the universe moves with it. 00:20:07 - Understanding human biology: we want love, connection, safety, belonging. 00:20:36 - Cutting through "what do you eat" questions — the real priority is connection. 00:21:00 - Closing: "Joy and happiness.

#328: The build versus buy decision isn't as binary as most companies think. Every technology choice involves elements of both - you might use Linux (buy) but still configure and customize it extensively (build). The real question isn't whether to build or buy, but finding the right balance between the two approaches based on your company's resources, size, and unique requirements. Companies often fall into the trap of thinking their processes are so unique that existing solutions won't work, leading to unnecessary custom development. This "not invented here" syndrome is particularly common in large enterprises that mistake their size for complexity. In reality, most businesses face challenges that have already been solved by others. The key is recognizing when you truly need a custom solution versus when you can adapt existing tools. The decision becomes more nuanced when considering factors like maintenance costs, compliance requirements, and long-term sustainability. Building internally requires ongoing resources for updates, security patches, and knowledge retention within your team. Meanwhile, buying from vendors shifts much of this burden but introduces dependencies and integration challenges. The conversation features insights from Alex Gusev from Uploadcare, along with perspectives from hosts Darin and Viktor on navigating these complex technology decisions.   Alex's contact information:  X: https://x.com/alxgsv LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alxgsv/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

TrulySignificant.com honors John Lennon on the 45th anniversary of his assassination. Featured on this show is the talented Darin Murphy, featured in the Broadway musical Lennon. Hear the inside story on John Lennon based on Darin doing the show through a beautiful blog that Ariana Huffington published. Enjoy this and the rare insightful stories about John Lennon through the lens of Darin Murphy who channeled his best Lennon on Broadway with Yoko Ono in the audience. When I was born in the fall of1964, the Beatles had just completed a full-scale invasion of the world (they actually were greeted as liberators). In my home the sound of the Beatles was like mother's milk, and the voice of John Lennon was as recognizable as those of my own parents. It was the envy of the music industry and ironically, John himself despised it, but in no way could it ever be mistaken for anyone else's. And I couldn't get enough of it. “Psychedelic vision is reality to me and always was. When I looked in the mirror at twelve, thirteen…I'd trance out and watch my face changing, becoming cosmic and complete. My eyes would get bigger and the room would vanish.” On December 8, 1980, I was 16 and watching Monday Night Football as Howard Cosell announced John's murder to America. Many would say that a part of them died that night, but not me. On the contrary, a part of me was born. I had always been an admirer, but suddenly I identified with John more than ever, and I discovered I could deliver a spot-on impression of that distinct voice. When I acquired my first 4- track tape machine, I would dissect the Beatles' recordings and recreate them as closely as possible. Those recordings eventually led to a job performing in a Lennon production on Broadway, which was seen by Arianna Huffington, which led to you reading this at this moment. That's just one of many serendipities and synchronicities that occurred within the cast and crew of LENNON over this past year, and they fed profound energy to a project that was already unique to anything else any of us had ever done. For all of us in the company, and Yoko Ono, who visited often, LENNON was a spiritual trip that transcended both show and show business, and I got to know a few sides of John that I hadn't before. Though we were dealing with a forty-year-long story that ended a quarter century ago, many of us, onstage and in the seats, felt as though we were actually experiencing John in the here and now. Perhaps that is where the real story of John Lennon lies, not in the places and dates and times, but in the people who have experienced him. There are those close to John who were enchanted by his charm, warmed by his generosity, frustrated by his stubbornness and wounded by his cruelty. And there are those far from him who are captivated by his charisma, inspired or enraged by his politics,enamored by his expressions of love or, like me, galvanized by his craftsmanship and charged by his spirit. Today as much as ever, artists use the talents of John Lennon the way Native Americans used the bison. Besides his musicianship and sensibility, we gain inspiration from his work ethic, his intellect, his literary skills, his presence onscreen, his comic timing, his artistic boldness, his naked candor, and his philosophy on life, which changed shape as his search for his own authenticity widened. “…The hardest thing is facing yourself. It's much easier to shout “Revolution” and “Power to the People” than it is to take a look at yourself; find out what's real inside you and what isn't, when you're pulling the wool over your own eyes, that's the hardest one.' It was no accident that Lennon left such a lasting musical legacy. He and McCartney had set out to do it purposely, to create music for future audiences as well as their own. But John had an even loftier goal: advancing the evolution of human consciousness. He talked and sang about it constantly, about how everyone could make it happen just by getting their minds together, “projecting our images in space and in time…raising the spirit of peace and love.” But he also warned us that the responsibility for bringing about such change lies in each of us as individuals. “You have to do it yourself…I can't wake you up. You can wake you up. I can't cure you. You can cure you.” We've been challenged, more than ever now, to recognize the man- made forces that lie behind our suffering; the prisons we've built for ourselves by limiting our thinking and our perceptions of reality; the ego-influenced illusions by which we live and die. These issues are front-page headlines, right now, every day, and that is why the words and dreams of John Lennon matter every bit as much now as they did then. At the heart of the matter is Truth, and it's important to realize, as Lennon did, that Truth is not some inanimate object to be manipulated, but a natural force living in the fabric of the soul that must be respected. But first, it helps to remember the most simple and basic of all the man's messages, the one he repeated over and over and would no doubt utter again if he had one more moment among us: I Love You. And we love you, too, John. Thanks!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/success-made-to-last-legends--4302039/support.

This week, we sit down with Darin A. Lahners to explore the beginnings of his well known series, What to Expect When You're Expecting: Worshipful Master's Edition. Drawing from his original reflections on preparing for the East, Darin discusses the nerves, doubts, hopes, and early lessons that shaped his first journey as Master. We trace the foundation he laid in that first piece (learning to relax, communicate, believe in oneself, plan with purpose, and invoke the blessing of Deity) and look at how those themes continue to resonate across his later writings. This conversation offers a candid look at leadership, expectation, and what it means to take on the Oriental Chair for the first time.

In this high-impact solo episode, Darin strips away the noise, hacks, and hype to deliver a clear, no-BS roadmap for transforming your body, brain, energy, and direction in life. This is a straight-talk breakdown of the 5 foundational habits that matter most — the habits backed by science, ancient wisdom, and Darin's decades-long experience living this work every day. Expect practical steps, micro-experiments, timing rules, and the mindset needed to reclaim sovereignty in a world full of distraction. If you're ready to build a stronger, clearer, more powerful version of yourself… this is the episode.     What You'll Learn 00:00 – Welcome to SuperLife How this podcast helps you build sovereignty through real habits, real truth, and real practices. 03:07 – Why this episode is different Darin lays out the mission: habits, hacks, hard truths — without dogma or fluff. 03:44 – The 5 foundational moves that change your biology A preview of the metabolic, physical, mental, and behavioral levers that create huge shifts.     1. METABOLIC EDGE — Eat Like You're Building a Future 04:03 – Terrain theory + why your food timing matters How altering the internal environment of your cells changes everything. 05:02 – The two levers that unlock metabolic health Time-restricted eating + plant-forward whole foods. 05:23 – Compressing your eating window Why 8–10 hours is ideal, how it improves glucose, insulin, weight, and inflammation. 06:18 – Practical weekly ramp-up Week 1: 12 hours. Week 2: 8–10 hours. Simple, sustainable, achievable. 07:10 – Darin's personal eating window 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. — and why eating earlier aligns with digestive fire.     2. MOVEMENT THAT MATTERS — Strength Is Survival 11:04 – Why strength training is non-negotiable Muscle protects metabolism, bone density, insulin sensitivity, and longevity. 11:51 – What the evidence says Huge cohort studies show strength training reduces all-cause mortality. 12:23 – The perfect weekly formula 3x/week compound lifts + daily movement + micro-bursts every hour. 13:06 – Real-life practicality Darin's routine of walking, sprinting dogs, mountain biking, and breaking up the day with movement.     3. SLEEP — The Ultimate Biological Reset 16:26 – The truth everyone ignores You cannot out-supplement or out-biohack poor sleep. 16:40 – The real impact of chronic sleep loss Cognition, memory, hormones, emotional regulation — all decline. 17:37 – The universal rule: consistent timing Same bedtime ± 30 minutes, every night. 17:52 – 60-minute wind-down protocol Screens off, light down, nervous system softening. 18:32 – Using sauna as a down-regulation tool Infrared benefits + why Darin does it twice a day in winter.     4. MINDSET & CONSCIOUSNESS — Your Attention Is Your Power 20:00 – Why optimization fails without attention training You can master food, workouts, and sleep — but scattered attention destroys progress. 20:48 – Darin's morning protocol Water → elixir → infrared pad → meditation → visualization → journaling. Every day. Everywhere. 21:01 – Meta-analysis proof Meditation reduces anxiety, depression, stress — and rewires your brain. 21:23 – The perfect 10-minute breathwork formula 5–5–5–5 or 4–4–4–4 cycles for nervous system reset. 21:56 – Journaling as medicine Stream-of-consciousness to activate clarity and emotional release.     5. WEALTH — Treat Your Time Like Capital 22:36 – Redefining wealth It's not money — it's your magnetism, output, relationships, and purpose. 23:16 – The compounding effect of tiny decisions Time batching, micro-actions, and protecting your attention from the social media attention economy. 24:02 – Mini productivity framework 90 seconds → 3 important calls. Every Friday → 1 paragraph on what scaled this week. 25:14 – Darin's post-meditation rule No scrolling — replace with proactive actions: reading, outreach, Patreon replies.     FINAL TAKEAWAYS 26:02 – The master checklist: • Time-restricted eating • Plant-focused meals • Resistance training • Daily meditation • Consistent sleep • Sauna recovery • Treating time like capital 26:11 – The real danger Chasing hacks before mastering fundamentals leads to burnout, confusion, and stress. 27:58 – Your power is in the basics These are simple, accessible, and life-changing. 28:04 – Closing message "Have your best Super Life Day ever."     Thank You to Our Sponsors Our Place: Toxic-free, durable cookware that supports healthy cooking.
