This Halloween, Darin turns the spotlight from ghosts and goblins to the real ones that haunt us — the memories, wounds, and traumas stored deep within our bodies and minds. In this cinematic special, he revisits some of the most powerful guests from past SuperLife episodes — Lori Woodley, Kyle Nicolaides, Dr. Aimee Apigian, Jules Schroeder, Maya Raichoora, Dr. Max Butterfield, Dr. Jess Stavale, Dani Fontaine, and Josh Macin — weaving together a spellbinding journey through emotional alchemy, mind-body science, and spiritual restoration. From the fascia to the endocannabinoid system, from visualization to detoxification, Darin explores how healing trauma is not about running from darkness but transmuting it into light. This episode is a hauntingly beautiful reminder that acknowledging our pain can become the path to our deepest purpose.

Die SP verurteilt den Genozid in Gaza «aufs Schärfste». Wieso ist diese Bewertung des Krieges für die Sozialdemokraten so wichtig? Und: Der SP-Co-Präsident spricht über die verletzten Kinder aus Gaza und die Weigerung einiger Kantone, sie aufzunehmen. Am Parteitag in Sursee hat die SP zwei Positionspapiere verabschiedet – eines davon ist die sogenannte Gaza-Resolution. Darin wird Israels Vorgehen im Gaza-Krieg explizit als Genozid verurteilt. Diese scharfe Israel-Kritik heissen jedoch nicht alle SP-Mitglieder gut. Warum ist diese Bewertung des Krieges für die Sozialdemokraten so wichtig? Weitere Themen: Zürich will keine verletzten Kinder aus Gaza aufnehmen – aus gutem Grund? Und: Ist die soeben lancierte Volksinitiative zur Anerkennung des Staates Palästina mehr als Symbolpolitik? Und: Die SP beschliesst eine Volksinitiative für eine gerechte Verteilung der Krankenkassenprämien. SP-Co-Präsident Cédric Wermuth ist zu Gast bei David Karasek.

Nach «Detroit» ließ sich Oscar-Preisträgerin Kathryn Bigelow («The Hurt Locker») fast neun Jahre Zeit, ehe ihr neuer Spielfilm «A House of Dynamite» beim Streamingdienst Netflix erschien. Die 73-jährige Regisseurin verfilmte ein Drehbuch von «Zero Day»-Autor Noah Oppenheim. Darin wird eine Rakete mit einem Atomsprengkopf aus dem asiatischen Raum auf die Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika abgefeuert. Der 112-minütige Spielfilm beginnt mit Major Daniel Gonzalez, dessen Team die Rakete im Pazifik entdeckt. In drei verschiedenen Episoden werden die letzten 20 Minuten aus der Perspektive der Militärbasis in Alaska, aus dem Situation Room des Weißen Hauses und schließlich aus Sicht des US-Präsidenten gezeigt. Sowohl an der Leistung von Idris Elba und Rebecca Ferguson als auch am Team hinter der Kamera gibt es nichts auszusetzen. Fabian Riedner bespricht mit seinem Gast Denis, dass ihm zuletzt zu viele Filme mit offenen Enden begegnet sind. Obwohl «A House of Dynamite» keine abschließende Geschichte erzählen kann, finden beide das Werk dennoch gelungen. In den vergangenen Jahren ließen jedoch Filme wie «Konklave», «Juror No. 2» und «Anatomie eines Falles» viele Zuschauer ratlos zurück.

In this follow-up to his deep dive on protein, Darin exposes the other side of the protein story: where your food comes from, what's really in it, and how the system itself affects your health, the planet, and the animals. From factory farm contamination to antibiotic resistance, industry lobbying, and why plants still win on every level — Darin breaks down the research, ethics, and environmental data so you can make conscious choices that fuel a truly SuperLife. What You'll Learn [00:00] Welcome + sponsor message: plastic waste, conscious products, and Bite Toothpaste [02:47] Introduction — the real protein conversation continues [03:00] The source of your food matters more than macros [03:10] Contamination, ethics, and the reality of factory farming [03:30] Stewardship vs. dominion — a call for responsibility [04:01] EPA data: confined animal operations and environmental chaos [05:00] Foodborne illness: salmonella, E. coli, and what contamination really means [05:57] Antibiotics, resistance, and hormones in animal agriculture [06:42] Persistent pollutants (PFOAs) showing up in food and milk [07:10] How animal feed (soy and corn) drives ecological damage [07:57] USDA marketing boards + industry lobbying against plant alternatives [08:38] Darin's 17 years vegan — data and lived experience [09:00] The numbers: amino acids, LDL, fat swaps, and longevity [09:47] Common plant-based protein myths answered [12:59] Patreon message — upgrade your operating system and join the tribe [14:03] The cancer connection: processed and red meat research [14:47] Iron, B12, and what vegans actually need to know [15:37] Soy, testosterone, and thyroid myths debunked [16:08] Protein quality: why mixing plant foods covers all bases [16:31] Feeling better on moderate meat?

Frisches Brot ist eine echte Delikatesse. Es braucht Ruhe, Zeit, Geduld und etwas Geschick, um es gut zu backen, aber es lohnt sich. Das Brot, das Autorin Rebecca Dechant seit Monaten selber backt, ist das Ergebnis von Geduld und Spaß am Ausprobieren. Es schmeckt herrlich, jeder will eine Scheibe davon haben. Darin erkennt sie viele Parallelen zu Jesus und zu unserem Glauben. Gesprochen von Stephanie Mosler.

Jörg Philipp ist gelernter Kellner, Sommelier mit aufregenden – auch internationalen – Stationen und seit einigen Jahren ein wissender Vertriebler, der nicht nur Wein verkaufen will (was ja sein Job ist), sondern vor allem eins: den Gastronomen helfen. Den richtigen Wein zu finden, der zum Essen passt – aber auch ins preisliche Segment des jeweiligen Restaurants. In Sachen passenden Wein finden war er auch im Wein & fein, wo Matthias Gräfe (und später das gesamte Team des Bistros) die Getränkebegleitung für das vorweihnachtliche Gäsemenü aussuchten. Da ich Jörg schon lange kenne und schätze, verbanden wir den Weinvorstellungstermin mit einem Podcast. Darin geht's um Wein, um große Weinfamilien und nicht zuletzt um zwei Rotweine unterschiedlichen Stils aus der Toskana. Außerdem haben wir jede Menge Spaß, was ja kein unwesentlicher Bestandteil des Genießens ist.Mehr Informationen und Bilder bei den STIPvisiten![00:00] Jörg Philipp zu Gast[10:22] was wir im Glas haben...[27:13] Zweiter Wein: Tenuta Frescobaldi[39:32] was hat ihn zum großen Anbieter gebracht?[53:24] jetzt gehen wir wieder zum Gänsebraten

#322: Peer-to-peer technology represents a fundamental shift in how we think about data sovereignty and application architecture. Rather than relying on centralized servers and trusting specific endpoints, peer-to-peer systems allow users to verify data authenticity regardless of its source. This approach eliminates the traditional point-to-point communication model where data flows from a specific server to your device, instead creating networks where any peer can help distribute content while maintaining cryptographic verification. The technology offers compelling advantages for developers and users alike. Applications built on peer-to-peer foundations can operate without ongoing infrastructure costs, scale naturally as more users join the network, and continue functioning even if the original company disappears. Development becomes simpler in many ways since everything runs locally by default, eliminating complex database configurations and external dependencies. However, challenges remain around debugging distributed systems, ensuring data persistence in small networks, and adapting traditional development workflows to this new paradigm. In this episode, Darin and Viktor explore these concepts with Mathias Buus Madsen, co-founder of Holepunch and creator of the Pear Runtime. Mathias shares insights from building real peer-to-peer applications, including their chat app Keet, and explains how developers can start experimenting with this technology today.

Bugonia | Tolles Œuvre, schöne Glatze Yorgos Lanthimos hat sich vom gefeierten Regisseur zum produktiven Vielfilmer entwickelt. Seit 2023 inszenierte er nicht nur den Oscar-prämierten „Poor Things“, sondern auch „Kinds of Kindness“ und nun „Bugonia“ (ab 30. Oktober im Kino) – ein Remake des südkoreanischen Kultfilms „Save the Green Planet“. Darin entführt Jesse Plemons die von Emma Stone gespielte CEO eines Großkonzerns. Was zunächst nach einem konventionellen Entführungsthriller klingt, dürfte bei Lanthimos natürlich wieder deutlich eigenwilliger ausfallen. Wie bizarr „Bugonia“ tatsächlich ist, wie Emma Stone mit kahlrasiertem Kopf auftritt und ob der Film auch für Lanthimos-Neulinge geeignet ist, darüber sprechen Laura Stu und Schlogger im Podcast.

In this mind-expanding episode, Darin sits down with Dani Fontaine — researcher, practitioner, and expert on the human body's forgotten communication system: the endocannabinoid system. They unravel how this network regulates everything from mood and sleep to pain and consciousness — and why it was deliberately scrubbed from mainstream medical education. Dani reveals how cannabinoids, light, sound, and nature all communicate with our body's receptor fields — shaping the way we feel, heal, and perceive the world. Together they explore the profound spiritual and scientific implications of this hidden system, and how it connects us back to balance, nature, and truth.     What You'll Learn 00:00:00 - Welcome to the SuperLife Podcast 00:00:32 - Sponsor: Energy Bits 00:01:52 - Introducing Guest Danny Fontaine: Cannabis Pioneer and Plant Medicine Healer 00:04:54 - Deep Dive: What is the Endocannabinoid System (ECS)? 00:06:30 - ECS: The Homeostasis and Retrograde Signaling System 00:09:20 - ECS as a Receptive System for Subtle Energies and Environment 00:10:23 - Endocannabinoid System Toning (X-Tone) 00:12:58 - When the ECS Gets Worn and Depleted 00:16:34 - ECS Receptors on Every Cell, Fascia, and Neural Makeup 00:19:14 - How the ECS Breaks Down: The Impact of False Light 00:22:11 - The ECS and Non-Photon Rich Food 00:23:40 - Modulating the ECS Through the Six Senses (Touch and Breath) 00:24:38 - Mitochondria and ECS Receptors (MTK, CB1) 00:25:14 - Endogenous ECS and the Need for Proper Nutrients 00:27:11 - Cannabis as our Phyto Twin: The Plant Factor 00:27:57 - THC and the Suppression of Anandamide (Bliss Molecule) 00:31:44 - Sponsor: Fatty 15 00:35:25 - The Vast Amount of ECS Research & Medical Suppression 00:38:27 - Cannabinoids, Pain, and Individual Assessment 00:40:29 - Modulating ECS with Nature: Terpenes like Pinene 00:42:51 - Olfactory System as the Most Sophisticated Input 00:47:03 - ECS as the "Microscope Moment" for Health 00:48:23 - Pinene, CB1, and TRP Receptors in Pain Management 00:50:39 - The ECS, Collagen, and Hyaluronic Acid Fluctuation 00:51:44 - Working with the ECS for Faster Results (Cancer and Genetic Mutations) 00:55:06 - Sponsor: SuperLife Patreon 00:56:39 - Measuring the ECS with Bio-Field Technology 00:57:29 - The Danger of THC Stacking and Immunosuppression 00:59:30 - Overwhelmed Cells and Fake Inputs 01:00:12 - Hemp as a Homeostasis Plant for the Planet (Soil Remediation/Carbon) 01:02:06 - ECS Strength in Animals vs. Humans 01:04:08 - Why Cannabis and Hemp Were Suppressed 01:07:07 - The Historical Use of Cannabis in Medicine 01:08:12 - Hemp's Nutritional Profile (Amino Acids and Omegas) 01:09:37 - Ayahuasca, Receptor Overexpression, and Looping 01:13:33 - Importance of ECS Knowledge and Application 01:14:58 - Exercise, Anandamide, and ECS Toning 01:15:22 - Cold Plunge and Shocking the ECS and Hormones 01:17:16 - Takeaways: Light, Movement, Sound, and Breath 01:21:41 - ECS: The Main Signaling and Communication System 01:23:28 - Final Thoughts: ECS as the Conduit to Self and Spirit     Thank You to Our Sponsors: Fatty15: Get an additional 15% off their 90-day subscription Starter Kit by going to fatty15.com/DARIN and using code DARIN at checkout.

In this solo episode, Darin dismantles one of the most persistent myths in nutrition: that plant proteins are incomplete or inferior. Drawing from decades of peer-reviewed research and his own 17-year plant-based journey, he breaks down how plants contain all essential amino acids, how digestibility differs from bioavailability, and why variety — not animal flesh — is the key to optimal health and longevity. This is part one of a two-part deep dive into protein, performance, and ethics — separating science from marketing and helping you understand where real nourishment begins.     What You'll Learn 00:00:00 - Intro and Sponsor: Fatty15 00:04:13 - Welcome to the Super Life Podcast 00:04:26 - Plant-Based Living and the Protein Question 00:06:24 - Protein Basics: Amino Acids in Plants 00:07:20 - Dr. Christopher Gardner and the Diversity of Plant Protein 00:09:52 - Protein Quality, Digestibility, and Flesh 00:11:12 - Heart Health: Stanford Twin Trial Results 00:12:02 - Saturated Fat, Polyunsaturated Fat, and Heart Disease 00:13:01 - Stanford Swap Meat Trial: Plant-Based Alternatives vs. Red Meat 00:14:14 - Sponsor: Our Place Cookware 00:17:01 - Longevity and Mortality Data 00:17:49 - Performance and Strength: Protein Requirements 00:20:47 - Easily Hitting Plant Protein Requirements 00:21:43 - Debunking the Carnivore Diet 00:23:02 - Closing Thoughts and Personal Point of View     Thank You to Our Sponsors: Our Place: Toxic-free, durable cookware that supports healthy cooking.

The protocol serves as an API for agents, allowing them to understand not just what you want to accomplish, but how your company prefers to accomplish it. The real power of MCP emerges when it moves beyond simple tool mirroring to intent-based architecture. Instead of just wrapping existing command-line tools, effective MCP servers understand higher-level intents like deploying an application or finishing development work, then orchestrate complex workflows that align with company policies and best practices. This approach transforms AI agents from generic assistants into context-aware collaborators that understand your specific environment and constraints. The rapid adoption of MCP across the industry signals something significant about the current state of AI tooling. While technical challenges around authentication, remote deployment, and stateful conversations remain unsolved, the protocol has achieved unprecedented adoption speed because it addresses a critical need for standardization in the agent ecosystem. In this episode, Darin and Viktor explore both the transformative potential and current limitations of this emerging standard.   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 this week's episode, Tracy speaks with Darin Nooren about one of the most challenging and emotional topics facing farm families — how to achieve fair and equal in farm transition planning. Darin shares his expertise on strategies to balance the needs of farming and non-farming children. Darin explains how life insurance is one solution that can satisfy everyone's needs — providing retirement income for farm founders, ensuring the farming child or children can continue operating a whole and intact farm, and offering financial fairness for off-farm siblings. Most importantly, it can help keep the family farm in the family for generations to come. And let's be honest — insurance ranks right up there with “let's not talk about it” subjects like wills, death, and transition planning at large. But this is an important episode that shines a light on one powerful tool that can help farm families finally achieve fair and equal while keeping the farm intact.

Vor langer Zeit gab es bei uns eine Folge zu "Der letzte Wunsch", einer Kurzgeschichtensammlung im Witcher-Universum des polnischen Autors Andrzje Sapkowski. Nun ist ein neues Buch erschienen, und wie schon die Kurzgeschichten ist es ein Prequel, das vor der eigentlichen fünfbändigen Saga spielt. Darin ist der Hexer Geralt erst 18 Jahre alt und trifft auf seinen Mentor Preston Holt. Da Falko (nach wie vor) nur ein Zaungast bei der Hexerwelt ist, lässt er sich von Felix Pietsch berichten, wie das neue Buch ins Gesamtwerk von Sapkowski einzuordnen ist. Aber hatte auch mit weniger Vorwissen seinen Spaß daran. Und euch viel Spaß mit der neuen Folge!

Living in Harmony with Earth: Robin Greenfield's Radical Simplicity In this inspiring conversation, Darin sits down with activist, environmentalist, and author Robin Greenfield — a man who has dedicated his life to proving that another way of living is possible. From giving up his cell phone and divesting from banks, to foraging 100% of his own food, Robin's radical experiments in simplicity challenge everything we've been taught about success, comfort, and happiness. Together, they explore how to reclaim sovereignty from destructive systems, find fulfillment in simplicity, and reconnect to the Earth through daily, mindful action.

In this solo episode, Darin takes on the “beef tallow” craze that's been sweeping the wellness world — exposing the industry manipulation, environmental costs, and scientific inaccuracies behind the trend. From skincare to supplements, companies are selling animal byproducts as miracle cures — but what's really happening behind the scenes? Darin dives into the industrial rendering process, the hidden pollution of factory farming, and the false “ancestral” marketing that's convincing people to buy into a billion-dollar rebrand of waste. This episode isn't about guilt — it's about truth, awareness, and sovereignty. Because when you know how the system really works, you can choose differently.     What You'll Learn 00:00:00 – Why Darin decided to peel back the layers on the beef tallow trend 00:01:00 – What tallow actually is: industrially rendered animal fat from slaughterhouse byproducts 00:03:00 – The dirty details: high-heat rendering, bleaching, deodorizing, and chemical refining 00:06:00 – The hidden foundation of factory farming and the myth of “ancestral” sourcing 00:08:00 – The human and environmental toll of the tallow supply chain — pollution, stress, and labor exploitation 00:10:00 – Marketing manipulation: how “natural” language disguises industrial exploitation 00:12:00 – Science check: why tallow isn't nutritionally superior to seed oils 00:14:00 – The clinical data: saturated vs. polyunsaturated fats and heart health 00:16:00 – The real safety issues — prion disease, contaminants, oxidation, and hidden toxins 00:18:00 – Why skincare claims are unproven — no data shows tallow outperforms plant oils 00:20:00 – The illusion of “zero-waste”: how byproduct economics fuel more slaughter 00:22:00 – What “natural” actually costs — to the planet, animals, and human health 00:24:00 – The path forward: transparency, awareness, and choosing regenerative alternatives 00:26:00 – The SuperLife perspective: stop calling destruction natural — awareness is the first step toward change     Thank You to Our Sponsors Fatty15: Get an additional 15% off their 90-day subscription Starter Kit by going to fatty15.com/DARIN and using code DARIN at checkout.

#320: In this episode, Darin and Viktor are joined by Jim Hirschauer, Head of Product Marketing at Xurrent, for a deep dive into the realities of incident management in today's complex IT environments. While dashboards and monitoring tools have become ubiquitous in operations centers, the panel discusses why these visualizations alone often fall short when it comes to actually resolving incidents. Drawing on decades of experience, they share stories of war rooms, recurring outages, and the persistent challenges that technology alone can't solve. The conversation highlights the critical role of human expertise, communication, and organizational culture in bridging the gap between raw data and effective action.

SUMMARY In this conversation, Jeremy Lesniak and Darin Yee explore the multifaceted world of martial arts, discussing its historical context, teaching philosophies, and the evolution of techniques. They emphasize the importance of respect, individualism, and practical application in martial arts training.   The dialogue also highlights the significance of understanding the science behind movements and the necessity of hard work in mastering the art. Ultimately, they advocate for a purpose-driven approach to martial arts, encouraging students to engage deeply with their practice. TAKEAWAYS Martial arts has a rich history that differs from modern perceptions. Respect in martial arts is reciprocal between teacher and student. Teaching should focus on helping students exceed their own limits. The evolution of martial arts techniques is essential for growth. Understanding the balance between hard and soft techniques is crucial. Individualism in martial arts allows for personal growth and mastery. Practical application of techniques is necessary for effective training. The science behind movements enhances martial arts practice. Experience in fighting is vital for teaching martial arts effectively. The spirit of martial arts persists even as physical abilities decline. This episode is sponsored by Kataaro.

In a digital world saturated with questionable dating advice from self-proclaimed gurus, Dr. Max Butterfield has emerged as a powerful and refreshing voice of reason. A professor with a Ph.D. in psychology, Max never intended to become a social media star. Tasked by a literary agent to simply build a small online presence for a book deal, he accidentally tapped into a massive cultural nerve, dissecting viral relationship videos with research-backed clarity and amassing over a million followers in just a few months. His journey is a testament to the power of authentic expertise, proving that in a sea of misinformation, people are desperately searching for grounded, scientific truth to navigate the complexities of human connection. This conversation is a masterclass in the psychology of modern relationships, going far beyond surface-level tips to explore the deep undercurrents shaping how we connect today. Dr. Butterfield breaks down why the "paradox of choice" fueled by dating apps makes us treat people as disposable and how these platforms are financially incentivized to keep you single . He and Darin dive into the critical difference between initial physical attraction and the values that predict long-term happiness, the truth about "soulmates," and the foundational skills—like managing conflict, building safety through mutual disclosure, and simple kindness—that are essential for growing a healthy, lasting partnership.
