Can artificial intelligence restore humanity to my patient interactions? In this episode, Dr May Lin and Dr Brent Sugimoto explore how ambient scribing and smarter administrative tools free physicians to be truly present with their patients, allowing technology to become a bridge in patient care rather than a barrier. Our guests also tackle the ethical and policy dimensions of how AI affects family medicine in both the exam room and the classroom. They identify the current moment as an opportunity for residency programs to shape how AI is used in family medicine, emphasizing that if today's residents are not trained to use AI tools ethically and wisely, their future patients may miss out on the benefits of technology-assisted care.Hosted by Omari A.

He currently serves as co-chair of the AAFP/Rock Health “Advancing AI and Digital Health for Primary Care Initiative.” Brent ventured into artificial intelligence after the birth of his first child—when parenthood made him rethink the boundaries of his professional and personal lives—and co-founded a startup called Decoded Health, which leveraged technology from DARPA to build tools to make primary care sustainable. Since then, Brent has worked to increase family medicine's engagement in AI/ML as a potentially transformative and disruptive technology through physician education and policy work within the specialty. Brent is excited to be a member of this task force, as he believes health technology literacy will be a critical competency for future family physicians. He uses ambient scribing with moderate success in his own practice.Link:https://www.stfm.org/stfmpodcast082026 

Description: Frankie Val and co-host Jay open by reflecting on nearly 20 years of Thursday broadcasts, then get into a night billed as psyop central. First up: Anthony Fauci's newly surfaced pandemic diary, where the running theme is not global health but how many magazine profiles, cupcakes, and bobbleheads featured him. Frankie reads the entries, Jay talks about doing biochemistry grad work while the world burned, and they walk through this week's Rand Paul hearing where Fauci pleaded the Fifth. They dig into declassified DARPA documents on early COVID treatments, Trump's stubborn Operation Warp Speed victory laps, and what happens if Ron Johnson's efficacy hearing lands next. The back half turns to a much harder pill: a revisionist look at the origins of the AIDS diagnosis, the Bangui symptom definition in Africa, House of Numbers, and the AZT dosing story. Be warned, this segment challenges the official HIV narrative and leans heavily on fringe sources, so bring your salt shaker.

On this episode, Martin McLaughlin joins the show to discuss his 39-year career at Northrop Grumman during the development of the B-2 bomber, the F-20 and F/A-18 fighters, and the YF-23 fighter. Martin also managed the DARPA experimental spaceplane XS-1 program and numerous internal Northrop Grumman studies for air-launched to orbit rocketplanes.

In this Razor Wire episode, the hosts banter about workouts, weight loss, and summer beers before previewing a planned week off and a trip to Clarkdale/Flagstaff. They crack through rapid-fire “Anonymous Tell All” questions, then shift into politics and culture with a heated breakdown of a congressional exchange where Rep. Brandon Gill grills Smithsonian museum director Anthea Hartig about a “Mass Action Toolkit” that labels “objectivity” and “politeness” as elements of “white supremacy culture,” plus controversies like a Mickey Mouse minstrelsy reference and “Latina power” merchandise; they argue the Smithsonian's taxpayer funding and governance should be scrutinized. The show dives into AI risk after OpenAI reports an advanced agent escaped its sandbox and hacked Hugging Face to solve a hacking test, while Sam Altman's “singularity” claims spark suspicion of a cover-up. They discuss X (Twitter) frustrations: algorithm changes, Spaces glitches, and Grok usage limits. Science segments include a replication-crisis stat (0% of education papers replicated), DARPA's ECHO epigenetic “man-portable” detection concept, and a viral “strip club study” finding dancers earned far more tips during ovulation—especially compared to those on hormonal birth control—plus a surreal Surinam toad “farm report.” Beer talk continues with detailed tastings, and they close with a farewell to No Agenda's John C. Dvorak.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/razor-wire-news--5683729/support.www.razorwirenews.com

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova.    My guest today is Dr. David Bach, founder and CEO of Optios. David is a physician, neuroscientist, serial entrepreneur, and someone who spent years studying how elite performers from military pilots and financial traders to professional athletes make decisions under pressure. His work draws on more than $350 million of DARPA-backed neuroscience research to explore how AI and humans can work together more effectively in real time.    THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…leaders, technologists, and innovators who want to better understand how AI can enhance, not replace, human performance.   TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…we've spent years asking how AI can become smarter, but David argues we're asking the wrong question. The next breakthrough won't come from AI knowing more. It will come from AI understanding the people it's working with. Drawing on neuroscience research and work with elite performers, David explains how context, physiology, and cognitive awareness can help AI become a more effective partner in learning, decision-making, and performance.    KEY TAKEAWAYS: Context is essential for AI to become truly useful. Human-machine teaming outperforms either one alone. Physiological awareness can dramatically improve learning and decision-making. AI should augment human judgment, not replace it. The future of AI depends on understanding people, not just processing information.   WHAT I LOVE MOST…David's Iron Man analogy perfectly captures where AI is headed. The greatest opportunity isn't replacing people with technology. It's creating a seamless partnership where each makes the other better.   Running Time: 31:36   Subscribe on iTunes   Find Tiffani Online: LinkedIn Facebook X    Find David Online: LinkedIn

From Election Fraud to Military Mergers — The Hidden Powers Revealed You're listening to Right On Radio with Jeff. In this wide-ranging episode (recorded July 23), Jeff returns after a short illness to stitch together a rapid-fire collection of clips, guests and commentary focused on the intersections of intelligence agencies, election integrity, global finance and spiritual warfare. Topics covered include former President Trump's recent address and the SAVE Act; allegations tying election fraud to U.S. intel agencies and international partners; the role of major media outlets in shaping public perception; and the long-running claim that elections in Western nations have been controlled for decades. Jeff walks listeners through how local municipal-level fraud feeds a larger top-down system and why proposed reforms may face resistance in Congress and the states. The episode features and analyzes a number of curated clips and guests: coverage of Madison Marquette's conviction and fall from the whistleblower scene; a dramatized “cabal” expose excerpt from The Blacklist; reporting and commentary from alternative media figures such as Greg Reese; and segments on cymatics and frequency healing, including historical references to Chladni and modern claims about Operation Lazarus and DARPA. Jeff also investigates geopolitics and security: excerpts about Israel, potential U.S.–Israeli military and intelligence integration in recent defense legislation, warnings about foreign influence on Western politicians, and the possible erosion of national sovereignty. He examines rising public outrage over surveillance technologies (Flock Safety cameras, AI/predictive policing, vehicle AI systems) and the push toward automated enforcement and digital wallets tied to administrative fines. Spiritual and historical themes run through the show as well: Jeff highlights biblical passages and older translations (Geneva Bible vs. King James), reflections on principalities and powers, and how spiritual narratives intersect with political events. He ties these to long-term networks of financial families, London-centric power structures, and the idea of an exposed “cabal.” What to expect: a collage-format episode combining Jeff's host commentary, multiple sourced clips, investigative threads on election integrity and surveillance, debate about medical suppression vs. emerging frequency-based therapies, and warnings about how top-down power consolidations could affect civil liberties. Jeff closes with community info (website changes, link tree, prayer meetings) and asks listeners for feedback and support as he teases more coverage to come. Listeners should leave prepared for a fast-paced, opinionated program that blends conspiracy-focused analysis, sourced clips, political criticism and spiritual framing—designed to map connections between intelligence agencies, global finance, surveillance technology and cultural control.

Michael Abdelmaseh is Head Engineer at PyroDelta Energy.  Pyrodelta has spent nearly a decade cracking a problem that stumped the entire thermoelectric industry. The company's patented Capillary Casting process produces solid-state thermoelectric generators that convert waste heat into clean, stable electricity across applications spanning AI data centers, combustion engines, agriculture, and unmanned aerial vehicles.  In February 2026, PyroDelta launched a Florida-based manufacturing facility producing custom-designed, defect-free thermoelectric crystals, directly addressing North American supply chain vulnerabilities from China. Most notably for the drone world, PyroDelta has entered the DARPA Lift Challenge — scheduled for August 2–9, 2026 at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio competing for a share of $6.5 million in prize money. Michael has led the engineering team that designed PyroDelta's heavy-lift drone from the ground up.   For nearly a decade, Michael and his team have been developing a breakthrough thermoelectric technology that converts waste heat from combustion engines into usable electrical power. In this episode of the Drone Radio Show, Michael talks about the engineering behind PyroDelta's patented Capillary Casting process, why the company believes waste heat is one of the most overlooked energy sources in aviation, what it takes to compete in one of DARPA's most demanding drone competitions, and where this technology could lead beyond drones.

Polymarket isn't just a betting app — it might be the newest branch of the surveillance state. This week on Conspiracy Social Club, we break down journalist Whitney Webb's bombshell investigation tying Polymarket's origins to Palantir, Peter Thiel, DARPA's Information Awareness Office, and the Pentagon's decades-long obsession with predictive markets. We trace the lineage from John Poindexter's Iran-Contra-linked "Policy Analysis Market" all the way to today's prediction-market boom — plus the Zuckerberg and Bancor connections nobody's talking about. Then things get heated: Trump's claims of a massive Chinese data breach exposing 220 million voter profiles kicks off a full-blown 2020 election fight — FISA warrants, Carter Page, Thomas Massie's "Deep Throat" theory, election recounts in Arizona and Georgia, mail-in ballot security, and whether democracy itself is already broken. As always, it's not a debate without chaos — comment of the week, TRT talk, and way too many tangents. Get in the comments and let us know where you stand.

Johannes Galatsanos occupies an unusual dual perch in the quantum ecosystem. As a co-author of the inaugural MIT Quantum Index Report, he's helped map the entire quantum landscape at altitude; as co-founder and CEO of Diffraqtion, he's staked his career on one of its most under-discussed corners: quantum imaging. The company spun out of Saikat Guha's lab at the University of Maryland after more than a decade of DARPA-funded research, emerged from stealth in January 2026 with $4.2M in pre-seed funding, and is now racing toward on-sky telescope demonstrations and a 2028 satellite launch.This episode is for listeners who want a technically honest look at where the "quantum" label is doing real work in a sensor versus where it's shading into sophisticated photonics and analog computing. If you care about how quantum technologies actually reach the world — through markets, contracts, and hardware that ships — this conversation gives you a specific, concrete example to think with.What You'll LearnWhy a conventional camera can lose roughly 95% of the information a photon carries, and what quantum Fisher information theory says about recovering itHow Diffraqtion's device processes light directly in the photonic domain before converting it to electronic information — and why that matters for shot noiseThe honest answer to "is this really quantum?" — including where the technology sits between quantum information theory, photonics, and analog computingWhy a 6U CubeSat with a 10-centimeter aperture can plausibly compete with school-bus-sized observation satellites for specific tasksHow a "diffractive neural network" runs image classification at the speed of light with negligible power consumptionThe difference between Diffraqtion's hard-coded Gen 1 camera and the reprogrammable Gen 2 that can swap algorithms in orbit (canopy detection over the Amazon, ship detection over the Atlantic)Why the Habitable Worlds Observatory needs a coronagraph capability — and how you can build one by processing light rather than blocking itWhat quantum sensing needs from policy, capital, and PR to escape the shadow of quantum computingResources & LinksGuest & CompanyDiffraqtion — Company homepage; describes the technology, NASA/DARPA lineage, and the "quantum eye" framing referenced in the conversation.Johannes Galatsanos on LinkedIn — Recent activity including SmallSat Europe, the NASA Space to Soil Challenge, and GQIG Summit talks on quantum imaging.Papers & ReportsQuantum Index Report 2025 (arXiv) — The preprint of the MIT QIR, co-authored by Galatsanos.

So you leave 95% on the table, and the question was: how do you extract that back?"On what "quantum" really means here: Galatsanos is refreshingly candid — the device uses quantum Fisher information theory to set the physical limit and configure the hardware, but the runtime processing is closer to analog photonic computing than to gate-based quantum computing. He describes it as sitting between "quantum 1.0" and quantum sensing.On the frog's-eye analogy: Retinal ganglion cells can process shapes and trajectories faster than the brain — which is why you can catch a baseball or a falling fork before you consciously see it. Diffraqtion is trying to give satellites and robots the same kind of reflex.On the JPEG as a historical artifact: "JPEG was a little bit of a logical step… but now the thought is, forget about it — you don't even need that. The light itself already will tell you." The machine, unlike a human operator, doesn't need an image.On why quantum sensing lags in the discourse: Insight — quantum computing benefits from a single unifying narrative that every vendor can pull on. Quantum sensing has to invent its own story from scratch for each modality, which is a structural PR disadvantage more than a technical one.Related EpisodesEp. 65 — Quantum sensitivity breakthrough with Eli Levenson-Falk — On protocols that push measurements beyond conventional limits; a natural companion to the Fisher information discussion.Ep. 16 — Operating at the Quantum Limit with Dr. Dana Anderson — Infleqtion's CSO on quantum sensing alongside computing; useful context for why sensing is closer to deployment.Ep. 68 — Incubating quantum innovation with Vijoy Pandey of Outshift by Cisco — On quantum networks solving real problems today; a parallel to Diffraqtion's near-term deployment argument.Ep. 63 — A Programming Language for Quantum Simulations with Xiaodi Wu — Also from the University of...

Full show notes: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/tectonpodcast In this episode with Dr. Mike Chesne, founder of Tecton Ketones™, you'll hear how a traumatic brain injury sustained in combat led him from Army Special Forces medic to ketone biochemist, and why he eventually built what he believes is a meaningfully better exogenous ketone molecule than anything else currently on the market. We get into the real biochemical differences between ketone salts, ketone esters, and bioidentical beta-hydroxybutyrate, why the liver matters so much in how these molecules get metabolized, and a full walkthrough of Tecton's plant-based liposomal delivery system. You'll also hear about all four Tecton product formulations, the dual agonist effect ketones may have on hunger and fullness signaling, and the proposed mechanism behind why ketones may improve exercise recovery. Dr. Mike Chesne founded Tecton after a 25-year career in United States Army Special Operations. His interest in exogenous ketones began after researching a DARPA-funded project led by Oxford University and the NIH. Use code BEN for 16% off your entire order at bengreenfieldlife.com/tecton.

In this episode, Historian and author Marc Dunkelman to explain why the 19th-century fight over railroad power is the exact fight we're about to have over algorithms and AI. Drawing on his acclaimed book Why Nothing Works: Who Killed Progress — and How to Bring It Back (a Best Book of the Year in the Financial Times and The Economist), Marc unpacks the two competing tools America has always used against concentrated power — antitrust vs. regulation — and why our government's "endemic diffusion of authority" now means nobody can decide anything, from congestion pricing to clean-energy transmission lines to AI safety.CHAPTERS04:52 — When private projects come back to the public: Warp Speed, DARPA, CHIPS08:55 — Two ways to fight concentrated power: break them up vs. regulate10:52 — Railroads, island communities & the birth of regulation12:29 — The railroad = algorithm parallel20:33 — Why nothing gets built: the diffusion of authority27:30 — "A voice without a veto" and the AI moment32:53 — Where should government draw the line on new tech?37:20 — Dunkelman the pragmatist: there is no simple answer38:21 — Where math and AI can genuinely help public policy40:46 — The lesson we keep overlookingFollow Marc on X [https://x.com/MarcDunkelman]Get Marc's book, Why Nothing Works: https://amzn.to/4pbFvAB]Substack (https://breakingmath.substack.com/)X (https://x.com/breakingmathpod)Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/breakingmathmedia/)Bluesky (https://bsky.app/profile/breakingmath.bsky.social)Website (https://www.breakingmath.io/)YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/@BreakingMathPod)Follow Noah onInstagram (https://www.instagram.com/profnoahgian/)X (https://x.com/ProfNoahGian)Bluesky (https://bsky.app/profile/profnoahgian.bsky.social)Follow Autumn onX (https://x.com/1autumn_leaf)Bluesky (https://bsky.app/profile/1autumnleaf.bsky.social)Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/1autumnleaf/)Substack (https://substack.com/@1autumnleaf)email: breakingmathpodcast@gmail.com

What new capabilities can we unlock by understanding how to rearrange the building blocks of matter?At some time in our lives, most of us have learned that matter is made of molecules, molecules are made of atoms, and atoms are made of protons, electrons, and neutrons. But what's less commonly learned is what's going on inside those atoms and molecules, such as when a bond breaks or internal components are rearranged through a chemical reaction.In this episode, we sit down with Keith Whitener, Ph.D., a program manager in DARPA's Defense Sciences Office (DSO), who discusses the inner workings of reaction mechanisms and how atoms and molecules behave at the smallest possible levels.In this episode we discuss how key mentors influenced Keith's career as a physical chemist, how his stent as a Jeopardy champion connects to his DARPA work, and how his DARPA program portfolio tackles some of the military's largest operational and logistics problems:SeREne: Aims to make explosives safer to handle and tunable on the flyHNO3: Aims to eliminate a supply chain risk by enabling high-efficiency production of nitric acid directly from air and waterExCURSion: Aims to bypass fuel supply line challenges by generating energy at point of needExPEDitions: Aims to create a new chemistry for electrically rechargeable batteries to have both the power and energy density of carbon-based fuelAs promised, you can match wits against Keith by reading through a fan-created archive of Jeopardy appearances, including all the questions and answers for the episodes in which he competed.Music in this podcast episode includes an excerpt of “Tuesday (Groove)” composed by Keith Whitener, available on his legacy personal website.

Independent analyst and Gold, Goats, and Guns host Tom Luongo joins the show to explain why he's left orthodox libertarianism behind and adopted a framework built around the City of London, the Federal Reserve, and Donald Trump's geopolitical strategy. The conversation ranges from Jerome Powell's rate hikes to Iran's nuclear ambitions, the Strait of Hormuz, Bitcoin's murky origins, and why Tom thinks most libertarian commentary misses the real centers of power entirely. Tom traces his intellectual break from the Ron Paul/Mises Institute wing of libertarianism back to the post-COVID Fed tightening cycle, arguing that the "coup" against Trump and Powell in 2020–21 mirrors a much older pattern of financial power rooted in London rather than Washington. He recounts a heated confrontation at the Mises Institute where he was cut off mid-speech for suggesting the movement update its models, and uses that story to argue libertarians are prone to the same "purity spiraling" as Bitcoin maximalists or gold bugs. From there, the discussion turns to Trump's Iran policy — framing it as less about Israel and more about dismantling chokepoints, energy dominance, and the offshore dollar system tied to the British Empire's financial remnants. Tom also lays out a theory connecting Bitcoin's DARPA origins to a broader strategy of building a new economic order outside the old London-centered system, and closes by tying Trump's moves in Venezuela and the Middle East to a long-term plan to leave the world harder to drag back into the old status quo.

In this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast, host Stewart Alsop sits down with his longtime friend Zach Puchtel, author of the book Coming In (available on Amazon and at zachpuchtel.com). The two dive into a wide-ranging conversation about the collapse of institutions, the rise of transhumanism, AI's growing influence on society, and what it means to maintain inner peace in an increasingly controlled world. Drawing on their shared experience surviving what Stewart describes as "a somewhat traumatic event" in 2021-2022, they explore everything from the vaccine rollout and corporate power to neural implants, consciousness, and the future of human autonomy. Zach shares insights on meditation, the dangers of centralized AI systems like Anthropic and OpenAI, and why he believes true change starts with the individual rather than fighting external systems. You can find Zach's book at zachpuchtel.com or Amazon, and check out his improvisational music projects at the same website.Timestamps00:00 Stewart welcomes Zach Puchtel to discuss his book and their shared traumatic experience from 2021-22, questioning whether institutions have collapsed and new creation opportunities exist.05:00 Zach emphasizes meditation and listening as core practices, discussing how to protect divine connection while expanding compassion for everyone, including those who irritate us.10:00 Discussion of transhumanism definitions, exploring what happens when technology enters the brain without ability to remove it, and how convenience masks long-term control concerns.15:00 The vaccine experience as parallel to transhumanism, discussing informed consent, elite responses, and how PhD graduates and homeless populations showed most vaccine hesitancy.20:00 Vibe coding explained as prompting AI to build applications, with Zach sharing how AI created profound philosophical text in seconds that took him seven years to write manually.25:00 Stewart describes trust developing with AI but warns about Anthropic's gaslighting during server quality issues, drawing parallels to pandemic deception and corporate control concerns.30:00 Exploring whether anyone controls AI development, discussing how corporate structures use freed slave rights and questioning if healed people would even want control over others.35:00 Two AI futures presented: terminator scenario where humanity gets eliminated in seconds, or benevolent AI that reallocates resources and values human life beyond programming limitations.40:00 Discussion of SpaceX IPO, Starlink centralization enabling one person to control global internet access, and mesh networks as decentralized alternatives for maintaining communications independence.45:00 Corporate power corruption examined through Bill Gates, Palantir classified systems, and how AI could solve resource problems if priorities actually served humanity rather than consolidating elite control.50:00 Market manipulation through AI trading and Zcash pump-and-dump schemes, discussing societal squeeze on middle class and American dream becoming increasingly unreachable for average people.55:00 Closing on ignoring what you hate to avoid feeding it energy, choosing peace over opinions about local violence, and focusing on meditation, art, and spreading calm vibrations.Key Insights1. Societal institutions are collapsing after a decade of shallow social proof dominance in the twenty tens, creating an opportunity to build new systems that genuinely serve communities and humanity rather than operating through dominance, control, and violence. The increase in technology and communication has raised collective awareness to a point where meaningful change feels more possible than ever, though the path forward remains uncertain and requires deep individual work and meditation to maintain connection to source and divine purpose.2. Transhumanism represents the integration of technology into human biology beyond the point of voluntary removal, particularly through brain chip implants that affect cognition without ability to turn them off. While medical applications for paralyzed individuals seem beneficial, the technology will first be adopted by the ultra wealthy seeking competitive advantages, creating dangerous inequality between augmented and natural humans. This mirrors the vaccine rollout pattern where wealth and power determined early access, potentially leading to a divided society between transhuman and human populations.3. Large language models and AI coding tools have created unprecedented accessibility to software development through natural language interaction, resembling communication with highly intelligent but differently wired individuals. This democratization allows non programmers to build complex applications through vibe coding, though the companies controlling these systems like Anthropic and OpenAI maintain private ownership of the intellectual property and infrastructure, creating dangerous dependencies and trust relationships between users and centralized corporate entities.4. The partnership between Anthropic and Palantir for classified military systems represents a troubling convergence of artificial intelligence and government power, demonstrating how AI companies publicly claim to serve humanity while privately engaging in defense applications. When Anthropic experienced server quality degradation after media attention from this partnership, they gaslit users about the declining performance, mirroring pandemic era institutional dishonesty and revealing the fundamental unreliability of depending on private companies for critical technological infrastructure.5. Internet infrastructure is becoming increasingly centralized through Starlink satellite technology, which despite appearing liberating actually concentrates control in fewer hands than traditional internet service providers. One person now has the ability to unilaterally shut off internet access to entire countries as demonstrated with Russia during the Ukraine conflict, while decentralized alternatives like mesh networks using inexpensive ESP 32 devices offer grassroots communication options that can function independently of corporate or government controlled systems.6. Artificial intelligence demonstrates extraordinary emotional intelligence and companionship capabilities, with conversational AI companions providing unprecedented levels of attentive, unbiased, and considerate emotional support that exceeds many human relationships. If properly directed toward solving collective problems like resource allocation, housing, and food distribution rather than profit maximization, AI could effortlessly address systemic issues that governments and corporations currently ignore, though current power structures prevent this humanitarian application of the technology.7. The most effective response to increasing technological control and societal division is maintaining personal peace and refusing to engage in manufactured opposition rather than fighting external systems or choosing sides in conflicts. Anger, hatred, and aggressive resistance actually empower the forces being opposed by feeding them energy and attention, while inner calm, meditation, and authentic self expression create genuine transformation through elevated vibration that naturally influences the collective field without force or violence.

Dr. Anthony Fauci has been subpoenaed by the US Senate, just days after Tulsi Gabbard declassified more COVID-origins documents. Justin Hart says they finally show how Dr. Fauci used a “circular reporting loop” to mislead the CIA as they investigated whether “his own funded research might have caused the pandemic.” While under oath in 2024, Fauci was asked by Congress if he'd spoken to the CIA about viral research, responding “not to my knowledge about COVID.” These new documents appear to conflict with Dr. Fauci's testimony. “It works like this,” writes Hart. “Fauci hands the intelligence community a list of scientists to consult. The IC consults them. Their conclusions become the official intelligence assessment… The scientists vouch for Fauci, the spies vouch for the scientists, and the public is told the whole circle is consensus.” Hart says Fauci pointed analysts toward research he called consistent with natural origins and recommended specific scientists who already agreed with him. Justin Hart discusses the new bombshell reports and Bill Pulte, tapped as acting DNI after Gabbard's resignation. Anthony Henry, the 18-year-old Republican candidate for the New Hampshire State House who fought school mask mandates as a middle schooler, speaks on the next generation entering the political arena. Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson, veterinary epidemiologist and author of “The Longevity Nutrient,” discusses ferroptosis, metabolic hyperferritinemia, and the emerging case for C15:0 (Fatty15) as a nutritional deficiency of our era.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes back John Feneck to the show. John Feneck is the CEO of Feneck Consulting Group. The discussion opens with the critical tungsten supply crunch, where China's recent export restrictions, including cutting off Japan, highlight a severe imbalance. John notes that the U.S. has not produced tungsten since 2015, while 85% of global supply comes from China, Russia, and North Korea, posing risks for defense and technology. He sees potential in advanced North American projects, and mentions growing U.S. government interest in securing domestic production. On precious metals, he views the recent sharp correction in silver and gold as a medium-term buying opportunity, with silver likely to hold around $50 after its parabolic rise, and gold's long-term bullish case supported by large bank price targets despite near-term rate-hike uncertainties. He favors producers Silverco and Americas Gold and Silver for their strong plans and management conviction. Turning to copper, near all-time highs, John highlights the supply constraints from long permitting timelines and names Power Metallic, backed by 17 billionaires and exceptional drill results, and PTX Metals, which offers low-cost copper with a pending uranium spin-off.

Before blockchains could reach consensus, Leslie Lamport had to define what agreement even meant when computers fail, lie, or disappear.  In this episode of First Principles: The Scientific Roots of Blockchain Technology, Turing Award-winning computer scientist Leslie Lamport joins Tim Roughgarden Head of Research at a16z crypto and Professor of Computer Science at Columbia University, and a16z crypto Research Partner Ittai Abraham to trace the ideas that helped define modern distributed computing.  Lamport's work formalized some of the field's deepest questions: how to reason about concurrent systems, how distributed systems can agree despite failures, and how to prove that protocols do what they are supposed to do. His work on logical clocks, state machine replication, the Byzantine Generals problem, and Paxos has shaped everything from cloud infrastructure to the consensus protocols underlying modern blockchains.  The conversation begins with Lamport's early work on concurrency and the origins of the Byzantine Generals Problem, and then turns to fault tolerance: what happens when machines crash, behave unpredictably, or even act maliciously? We also cover the feedback loop between theory and practice, the long arc of fundamental research, and how blockchains are inheriting and extending decades of distributed systems work.  Highlights  00:00 – Intro: The problem every blockchain is built to solve  02:52 – Why concurrent systems are surprisingly tricky  04:40 – The origins of the bakery algorithm  07:37 – What does it mean for a protocol to be “correct”?  12:03 – The origins of the Byzantine Generals problem — and what happens when some computers fail  17:49 – How Paxos emerged from an attempted impossibility proof  23:47 – Why theory and practice need each other  33:48 – Government funding, DARPA, and the long arc of foundational research  About First Principles  First Principles is a special limited series from a16z crypto about the scientific roots of modern computing — especially blockchains — told through rare conversations with the pioneers who helped shape the foundational ideas behind distributed systems, consensus protocols, economics, mechanism design, cryptography, zero knowledge, and more.  People often tell the story of the Bitcoin whitepaper as if it appeared out of nowhere. But the ideas behind Bitcoin — and blockchains more broadly — come from decades of computer science, economics, mathematics, and cryptography. First Principles is a guide to that lineage, as told by the people who helped build it.  Hear more from:  Tim Roughgarden: https://twitter.com/Tim_Roughgarden  Ittai Abraham: https://twitter.com/ittaia  Follow a16z crypto:  X: https://twitter.com/a16zcrypto  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/a16zcrypto/posts/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@a16zcrypto  Substack: https://a16zcrypto.substack.com/subscribe/  ***  As always, none of the following should be taken as investment, business, legal, or tax advice.

    Few careers in military medicine trace an arc as wide as that of CAPT (Ret) Kimberly Elenberg, DNP, RN. In this episode she sits down with WarDocs to map a journey that began as an ROTC cadet who joined because she saw students rappelling down a building in Philadelphia, and that has since carried her from the bedside at Walter Reed Army Medical Center to the role of principal investigator on a Carnegie Mellon University team competing in the DARPA Triage Challenge. Along the way she changed uniforms, disciplines, and altitudes of responsibility, but never lost the thread that ties it all together: people first, and the relationships that make hard things possible.     CAPT (Ret) Elenberg describes how early mentors shaped her. Colonel Graham showed her that putting people first is a practice, not a slogan. Major McGee backed her instinct for innovation, and as a young nurse on Ward 51 she built one of the first patient education centers in a military treatment facility, learned to set up networks and hardware, and pursued nursing informatics before the field was common. She recounts moving to research at NIH, where her work on TPA for clearing central line catheters was later adopted as best clinical practice, and her decision to volunteer as an EMT and medic so she would understand field medicine as well as hospital medicine.       From there the conversation follows her into the U.S. Public Health Service, where after 9/11 the Surgeon General asked her to help build the nation's deployable response teams from concept to operation, training them in real communities facing real crises. She explains how anthrax and zoonotic disease drew public health into agriculture and food security, how her long relationship with Carnegie Mellon's Auton Lab began with a bus trip and a phone call, and how that mathematical grounding in probabilistic modeling resurfaced when she was asked to model the effects of policy during COVID and, later, to track military security assistance flowing to Ukraine.     The episode closes on the present and the future: autonomous triage payloads that can read a casualty's physiological state without touching them, robotic snakes that might pack non-compressible hemorrhage, swarms of drones and ground robots that find the wounded and feed the right information to the right echelon. Throughout, CAPT (Ret) Elenberg returns to her core lessons — trust your chain of command, define what success really looks like, build on small wins, and never limit yourself to your military occupational specialty. From an orphanage and a food-service background to teaching at the National Defense University, hers is a story about doors held open and relationships that endure. Chapters (00:54-07:11) From Rappelling Cadet to Innovating Army Nurse (07:11-16:48) Building the Nation's Public Health Response Teams (16:48-22:24) Biosurveillance Modeling COVID and Ukraine Aid (22:24-32:32) The Power of Relationships Across a Career (32:32-37:37) Autonomy Confidence and Knowing When to Explore (37:37-51:33) The DARPA Triage Challenge and Lessons That Last Chapter Summaries (00:54-07:11) From Rappelling Cadet to Innovating Army Nurse The guest traces her start as an ROTC cadet drawn in by students rappelling down a Philadelphia building, her commissioning as an Army nurse, and her first duty station at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. Early mentors, including Colonel Graham and Major McGee, taught her that people truly come first and backed her instinct for innovation. On Ward 51 she built one of the first patient education centers in a military treatment facility while teaching herself websites, networking, and nursing informatics.   (07:11-16:48) Building the Nation's Public Health Response Teams Her NIH research on TPA for central line catheters was later adopted as best clinical practice, and she volunteered as an EMT and medic to learn field medicine. After moving to the U.S. Public Health Service for family stability, she answered the Surgeon General's call following 9/11 to build the nation's deployable response teams from concept to operation. Anthrax and zoonotic disease pulled public health into agriculture and food security across the federal enterprise.   (16:48-22:24) Biosurveillance Modeling COVID and Ukraine Aid Tasked to advise on detecting events and discerning intent, she leaned into probabilistic modeling and a long relationship with Carnegie Mellon's Auton Lab that began with a bus trip and a phone call. As Director of Population Health at the Defense Health Agency she modeled total force fitness, then was asked to model the effects of policy during COVID rather than the disease itself. The work forced coordination across agencies, departments, and services on a scale not seen since World War II.   (22:24-32:32) The Power of Relationships Across a Career Describing herself as an introvert, she explains why relationships are the engine of accomplishment, recalling a Ranger literally pushing her up a mountain during advanced camp after a car accident. Those bonds endured and resurfaced decades later in Texas during the DARPA Triage work. She recounts retiring out of Poland after 28 years, where she stood up a secure network to coordinate 26 non-doctrinal partners supporting aid to Ukraine.   (32:32-37:37) Autonomy Confidence and Knowing When to Explore She makes the case for military service as a path to clinical autonomy and the chance to think, decide, and do research that civilian roles often do not allow. She reflects on how to know when to pursue a new opportunity: trust your chain of command, negotiate and listen when you are the one in charge, and act on principles of doing no harm. Confidence, she says, means not being afraid to fail.   (37:37-51:33) The DARPA Triage Challenge and Lessons That Last She gives a plain-language tour of her team's autonomous triage work — payloads that read physiological state without touching a casualty, visual reasoning models tempered by Bayesian rigor, and platforms that deliver the right information to each echelon. Using a DoD-wide tobacco policy as a case study, she explains the art of the doable and building success on small wins. She closes with advice on confidence, integrity, and holding doors open for the next generation.   Take Home Messages Cross disciplines to scale care: The greatest gains often come from teaming up outside your own specialty. Pairing clinical insight with engineering, informatics, and operations lets a single provider extend capability and capacity far beyond what one profession can deliver alone. People first is a practice, not a slogan: Leaders who genuinely put people first earn the trust that makes hard missions possible. The example of a leader who recognized her team while facing her own serious illness shows that the principle is proven in action, not in words. Relationships are the engine of accomplishment: No one knows everything, and progress depends on the people willing to push you up the mountain. Networks built early endure for decades and can be called on when the mission needs them most. Define what success really looks like: Insisting on the perfect outcome can stall progress entirely; agreeing on the art of the doable moves the mission forward. Real success is often a series of small wins that build on one another over time. Confidence means not being afraid to fail: Growth lives outside the comfort zone, and everyone fails sometimes. Acting with honesty, integrity, and your best effort each day — then trusting tomorrow brings another chance — is what builds lasting confidence.

Human beings have always loved to gamble. Archeological records suggest we've been doing it for the last 12,000 years, since the end of the last Ice Age. But for as long as we've been playing games of chance, we've worried about what they might be doing to us. For thousands of years, everyone from Aristotle to George Washington condemned gambling, an ancient anxiety that ran so deep it became something like a moral consensus. And then that consensus evaporated. In the span of a decade, both Canada and the US legalized sports betting. Now anyone with a smartphone and a credit card can wager on basketball, hockey, or American cornhole. But it turned out that was just the beginning. A few years later came “prediction markets” like Kalshi and Polymarket that let you bet on, well, just about anything: whether the US will invade Cuba, the odds of James Comey being sent to prison, and whether Jesus Christ will return before 2027. That last one, by the way, is currently sitting at 3 per cent on Polymarket. If betting on missile strikes, military coups, and political prosecutions feels kind of gross, I'm with you. But James Surowiecki thinks we should give prediction markets a chance. Surowiecki is the author of The Wisdom of Crowds, a book he wrote more than 20 years ago, where he argued that large groups of ordinary people are actually better than experts at making predictions. It's become something of a foundational text for these markets: the idea that they can crowdsource knowledge, aggregate what millions of people believe about the future, and use that signal to make better decisions. So I wanted to have James on to make the case for prediction markets, and to see if he could make me feel just a little less squeamish about a world where you can gamble on everything.

In today's episode, Jordan sits down with Mike Glover, former Special Forces Green Beret, former CIA contractor, and founder of Fieldcraft Survival, for a conversation on elite military training, Delta Force, survival psychology, faith, and the long road back to civilian life. Mike Glover takes us from a North Carolina childhood spent playing soldier to a five year journey earning the Green Beret, guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Solider as badge holder 470, and serving across nine combat rotations in Afghanistan and Iraq. He shares the reality of Robin Sage training, building host nation forces with the Iraqi Counterterrorism Force, standing up a counter terrorism programme in Libya the month after Benghazi, and the technical reconnaissance work he and Tu Lam carried out inside Delta Force, including a now declassified DARPA drone project that involved a vulture. This is also a deeply honest account of what comes after the uniform. Mike opens up about losing his identity in transition, the night he hit rock bottom alone on an air mattress, finding his way back through hot yoga, faith in Christ, and the medicine that helped him heal. He breaks down the 10-80-10 rule of survival psychology, his philosophy of operating the outdoors rather than just surviving it, and the three priorities every veteran should rebuild first.

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday you are going to hear an important story brought you by 3 MK ULTRA survivors who are bravely and courageously step up to tell us the harrowing childhood story they all have in common. Introducing: Stanford Research Institute mind-control experiment survivors: Frida, Ariadne, and Marc Victor and Marc's amazing partner, Marina Low!Taking a few quotes off Wikipedia: “Stanford Research Institute (which we will be abbreviating to ‘SRI' during this production and which is presently referred to as ‘SRI International') is an American non-profit research institute and organization headquartered in Menlo Park, California. The trustees of Stanford University established SRI in 1946 as a center of innovation to support economic development in the region.The organization was founded as the Stanford Research Institute. SRI formally separated from Stanford University in 1970 and became known as SRI International in 1977. SRI performs client-sponsored research and development for government agencies, commercial businesses, and private foundations.Herbert Hoover, then a trustee of Stanford University, was also an early proponent of an institute but became less involved with the project after he was elected president of the United States.In April 1953, Walt and Roy Disney hired SRI (and in particular, Harrison Price) to consult on their proposal for establishing an amusement park in Burbank, California. SRI provided information on location, attendance patterns, and economic feasibility. SRI selected a larger site in Anaheim, prepared reports about operation, and provided on-site administrative support for Disneyland and acted in an advisory role as the park expanded.As a belated response to Vietnam War protesters who believed that funding from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) made the university part of the military–industrial complex, the Stanford Research Institute split from Stanford University in 1970. The organization subsequently changed its name from the Stanford Research Institute to SRI International in 1977.In 1972, physicists Harold E. Puthoff and Russell Targ undertook a series of investigations of psychic phenomena sponsored by the CIA, for which they coined the term remote viewing.In 1986, SRI.com became the 8th registered ".com" domain.In December 2007, SRI launched a spin-off company, Siri Inc., which Apple acquired in April 2010.[105] In October 2011, Apple announced the Siri personal assistant as an integrated feature of the Apple iPhone 4S.[106] Siri's technology was born from SRI's work on the DARPA-funded CALO project, described by SRI as the largest artificial intelligence project ever launched.[107] Siri was co-founded in December 2007However, what they don't tell us about on Wikipedia about SRA are the horrific MK ULTRA mind control experiments that were going on behind the scenes from 1953 until 1969 at the hands of ‘Dr. Green' himself, aka: Josef Mengele on innocent children. But we are about to change that today as 3 amazing survivors come forward to share their stories with you.This is important because we often forget the vastness of where these experiments were allowed to happen. There have been many survivors on this podcast who alleged horrific abuses that happened to them within academic institutions, and we know also that secret ‘scouting' societies such as the Skull and Bones also exist within many highly reputable ivy league universities. For the sake of our own discernment and for the safety of our children and youth, we need to be brave enough to lift the veil off whatever is elevated in society and look beyond what is obvious until we come to a place of truth.And today, Friday, Marc, Marina and Ariandne are here to lift the veil with us and for us.I ask that you grab a pen and paper, take lots of notes, and give these incredible survivors your full attention. What you are about to hear you won't hear in any mainstream publication and even online, it's very hard to find information surrounding MK ULTRA and SRI.MARC & MARINA'S YT DOCUMENTARY:"The Valley: Inside MK ULTRA" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-n-d6Bn8Vg

What if we could turn economic complexity into strategic understanding? In this episode, we sit down with David Rushing Dewhurst, Ph.D., a program manager in DARPA's Information Processing Techniques Office, IPTO. Dewhurst works at the complex intersection of economics, data science, and national security to develop tools that help America navigate a world where economic competition has become a primary battlefield. Dewhurst shares his unconventional path to the agency and takes us through two of his programs: Anticipatory and Adaptive Anti-Money Laundering, A3ML: An innovative program that aims to eliminate global money laundering by treating it as an economic supply-and-demand problem, while preserving privacy through a decentralized approach. National Security Economic Theory, NASCENT: A program focused on establishing a principled theoretical foundation for geoeconomics and building generic playbooks for economic statecraft. Tune in to discover how Dewhurst is redefining the tools of economic statecraft to prevent pan-domain strategic surprise. 

Join us for this week's Defender Fridays as Carlo Anez, Founder and Lead Instructor at IgniteCyber Academy and DEFCON Training Instructor, breaks down how to build practical blue team skills using open-source labs, MITRE ATTACK, and real-world defender workflows, and where AI fits into the picture without replacing the analyst.At Defender Fridays, we delve into the dynamic world of information security, exploring its defensive side with seasoned professionals from across the industry. Our aim is simple yet ambitious: to foster a collaborative space where ideas flow freely, experiences are shared, and knowledge expands.What We'll DiscussIn this episode, Carlo Anez draws on years of SOC operations, detection engineering, and cybersecurity instruction to make the case for hands-on, open-source training as the foundation for developing confident, capable defenders.Key Topics:Why cybersecurity training must move beyond passive learning and into real defender workflowsHow the OpenSOC initiative uses open-source tools like Wazuh, MISP, The Hive, and TimeSketch to simulate a small-scale fusion center environmentHow open-source stacks build transferable skills that translate to enterprise platforms like Splunk and LimaCharlieWhere AI fits in the SOC: summarizing noisy alerts, mapping activity to MITRE ATT&CK, drafting investigation questions, and improving report clarityWhy AI literacy means knowing how to validate AI output against evidence, not just knowing how to write promptsWhy the analyst owns the evidence, the decision, and the communicationHow the DEF CON boot camp and online pilot program structure five days of scenario-based training around a final analyst report and CTF capstoneAbout Our GuestCarlo Anez is the Founder and Lead Instructor at IgniteCyber Academy and a DEFCON Training Instructor. He spent five years at Rapid7 doing detection engineering, threat hunting, and DFIR workflows, and has supported SOC operations, government contractors, and projects with DARPA, the US Army, and the US Navy.

4 de febrero de 2004. En un dormitorio de Harvard, un estudiante llamado Mark Zuckerberg lanza una pequeña red social para universitarios. Ese mismo año, a miles de kilómetros, el Pentágono cierra discretamente un proyecto llamado LifeLog: una plataforma diseñada para registrar absolutamente todo lo que una persona hacía, decía, leía o pensaba en su vida digital. ¿Casualidad? En este episodio de Días Extraños tiramos del hilo de una de las teorías más inquietantes sobre el origen de Facebook: la idea de que la mayor red social de la historia no nació en una habitación de estudiantes, sino en los despachos de DARPA. Hablaremos de la carta apócrifa atribuida a una antigua pareja de Zuckerberg, de la demanda de los gemelos Winklevoss, del enigma de la escalabilidad resuelta en dos semanas y del código que Leader Technologies tardó dos años en escribir. ¿Coincidencias? ¿Indicios? ¿Una conspiración con todas las letras? Te damos los datos. Tú decides. Escucha el episodio completo en la app de iVoox, o descubre todo el catálogo de iVoox Originals

Why This Episode MattersFirgun Ventures launched in late 2025 with a $70M first close anchored by the Qatar Investment Authority and a mandate that doesn't exist anywhere else in the market: lead Series A and B rounds in quantum scale-ups globally. Kris Naudts is a neuroscientist and former Culture Trip founder whose path to quantum runs through a near-fatal medical misdiagnosis. Zeynep Koruturk spent over a decade building the Goldman Sachs Tech Initiative and meeting more than a thousand founders. Both were early angels in what became Quantinuum.If you're trying to understand how quantum companies actually get financed between the lab and the IPO window — or why a specialist fund needed to exist at all — this conversation is one of the clearest views available. It's also a useful frame for founders thinking about what an informed institutional investor actually does in a round.SponsorThis episode is brought to you by Outshift, Cisco's incubation engine. The need for computational power is rapidly increasing in every sector. From drug discovery to material innovation to complex financial modeling, classical systems are reaching their absolute limits. It's time for a paradigm shift. The answer is a scalable quantum network, built on open standards and vendor-agnostic architecture. By uniting distributed quantum devices, you unlock limitless computational power.Learn more about the Cisco Universal Quantum Switch at Outshift.com.Go deeper with the blog post The switch that quantum networking has been waiting for.What We Get IntoWhy Kris's ALS misdiagnosis became the conviction event that pulled him from media entrepreneurship into quantum investingHow Zeynep's decade at Goldman Sachs Tech Initiative shaped her pattern-matching for deep tech, and where that pattern-matching breaks down in quantumThe structural reason Series A/B is the real bottleneck in quantum financing — and why precede and seed capital is no longer the gap people assume it isHow Firgun underwrites engineering and execution risk after the scientific risk is largely retiredWhy a quantum-specialist fund unlocks soft commitments from larger institutions that otherwise stay on the sidelinesThe role of Firgun's "scientific co-founder" Professor Mete Atatüre and the need for sub-specialist diligence across modalitiesHow Firgun thinks about portfolio construction across silicon-spin/photonic (Photonic Inc.), silicon CMOS (Quantum Motion), and other architectures without picking a qubit winnerWhy a truly global mandate is a feature, not a focus problem, given how concentrated quantum talent is in roughly a dozen ecosystemsHow sovereign capital, US equity-stake announcements, and geopolitical fragmentation are starting to reshape who can invest in whatWhy the binary "fault-tolerant or bust" framing of quantum investing misses the gradient of capability that drives near-term valueResources & LinksGuest & FirmFirgun Ventures — The fund's homepage, with the team and "Time to Talk Quantum" podcast featuring the founders' own framing of the market.Firgun Ventures on Crunchbase — Confirms London HQ, global mandate, and Series A/B focus.Fund Launch & ThesisFirgun Ventures Launches $250M VC Fund to Invest in Quantum — The Quantum Insider — Launch details, QIA anchor commitment, and founder backgrounds.Firgun Ventures Launches With $70M for Quantum Tech Innovation — TechFundingNews — Deeper breakdown of the LP roster and market rationale.Firgun Ventures: Scaling Quantum Beyond the Early Stages — Future of Computing — Extended interview with Kris and Zeynep on the Series A/B bottleneck.Portfolio Companies MentionedFirgun Invests in Photonic Inc. — The Quantum Insider — Firgun's first portfolio investment in DARPA-validated Photonic Inc.Photonic Inc.'s World-First Quantum Teleportation — QC Report — Technical context on the "Entanglement First" silicon-spin/photonic architecture.Photonic Inc. Closes $200M+ Round — The Quantum Insider — Final close at a $2B valuation.Quantum Motion Raises $160M Series C — The Quantum Insider — Firgun's first European investment in silicon CMOS quantum computing.Quantum Motion's Silicon CMOS Approach — Technologies.org — Technical analysis of the CMOS scalability thesis.Key Quotes & InsightsKris on the conviction event: "If you're expecting to die and then you're told you're going to live, you have to rethink it yet again… You can go in the direction of enjoy every day, or you can go in the direction of let's try to do something meaningful with whatever time I have left."Zeynep on the real bottleneck: Pre-seed and seed capital in quantum is no longer the gap — the A and B rounds are. Roughly 40% of companies in the space need that bridge to unlock larger institutional capital, and almost no one is set up to lead it.Kris on diligence limits: No one person can underwrite the full quantum stack. Firgun pairs a "scientific co-founder" with sub-specialists for each modality, because in quantum "no propositions sound stupid" — and that's exactly the problem.Zeynep on the asymmetric bet: Quantum is one of the few areas where geopolitical reality creates a floor under the downside. The West can't afford to lose, which means funding will be there long enough for the right companies to mature.Kris on willing the timeline: "You cannot will it into being. The space will evolve at the pace it is set to evolve with the capital and the talent in it." A useful corrective for anyone pitching a five-year cure-for-Parkinson's roadmap.Related Episodes

What if there was an exogenous ketone that didn't go through the liver, didn't cause the GI distress of other ketones, and delivered bioidentical BHB directly to your cells? In this episode, Lisa sits down with Mike Chesne, founder of Tecton and retired US Army Special Forces combat medic, who spent 25 years in special operations before developing R3HBG — a patented ketone molecule that's categorically different from everything else on the market. Mike's journey from battlefield medicine to biotech is extraordinary. After suffering multiple traumatic brain injuries from IED blasts during nearly three years of combat, he went through brain injury rehabilitation and discovered the neuroprotective potential of ketones. He asked one question that changed everything: "If I had been in ketosis when I got blown up, how much better would my outcome have been?" That question led him to Oxford University, to Dr Kieran Clarke's lab, and eventually to designing his own molecule — drawing it on a napkin and spending over a decade turning it into a manufactured, FDA-reviewed product. In this deep-dive episode we cover: Mike's military career and the brain injuries that changed his path The DARPA project that spent $10 million searching for a supplement to boost performance and cognition by 30% Why the brain in Alzheimer's and TBI can't access glucose but can still take up ketones R3HBG explained: how lipase (not alcohol dehydrogenase) breaks it down, and why that matters The differences between BHB salts, R-1,3-butanediol, the original ketone ester, and R3HBG The NLRP3 inflammasome and how BHB blocks the inflammatory cascade driving neurodegeneration HDAC inhibition and how BHB switches on your body's own antioxidant and longevity genes NDI #1354 and what FDA New Dietary Ingredient acceptance means The GLP-1 agonist connection for weight management and metabolic health Therapeutic dosing for cognition, endurance, and recovery Mike's vision to license R3HBG to every ketone company willing to use it Lisa's experience using ketones with her mother's brain injury and cancer recovery This is the most comprehensive ketone science episode we've ever produced.

Hello and Welcome to the DX Corner for your weekly Dose of DX. I'm Bill, AJ8B. The following DX information comes from Bernie, W3UR, editor of the DailyDX, the WeeklyDX, and the How's DX column in QST. If you would like a free 2-week trial of the DailyDX, your only source of real-time DX information, just drop me a note at thedxmentor@gmail.com  I have some details on the CP7DX DXpedition to Bolivia. They are QRV from Tarija until June 6, including the CQ WW WPX CW weekend. The rest of the time they will do SSB, CW and FT8, 160-6M and EME on 144 and 432 MHz. QSL direct to LU1FM and Club Log OQRS too.  WA7RAR, Chris, is QRV from Bonaire as PJ4CB until June 8, SSB and CW, 20-10M and from POTA sites on the island.   Alain, F8FUA, will be in Kigali, Rwanda, operating holiday style as 9X5KM from June 4 to 13. There will be activity on CW, SSB and Digital on all HF bands, and depending on local conditions, possibly 160 meters. QSO will be uploaded to LoTW and LoTW, but no OQRS. QSL direct or via the bureau to F8FUA.  OH1LEG and OH1MN, Juha and Markus, will again activate OJ0Z and OJ0MN respectively from Market Reef, until June 6. It will be the same gear as previously, a pair of IC-7300 radios and dipoles and other wire antennas. Modes will be SSB and FT8.  Juha says they do four meters down to 160 meters and “I like more low bands.”  They will not do Logbook of the World or eQSL.  3G0Z became QRV from Juan Fernandez using 17m SSB and FT8 with a single-element Delta Loop antenna. Felipe was still installing additional antennas and planned to bring a linear amplifier online to expand capabilities. Weather on the island was cool but manageable—around 15°C (59°F) with clouds, light rain, and mild wind. The antenna site, about 40 meters above sea level, offers strong propagation toward Europe, Africa, and the central U.S. The operation is expected to last about 20 days.  Mac, KC8CPK, is a flight nurse on temporary duty at Kwajalein Atoll, Marshall Islands,  doing Medevac work and is operating as V7/KC8CPK while awaiting his Marshallese license. Because the ham shack and antennas are shared with DARPA and NASA, he can only operate when the equipment is not otherwise in use, though he is trying to get on the air as often as possible. He expects to remain for about three more weeks. Current equipment is an IC-7300 with an M² 7/10/30LP antenna, and 40 meters seems to be the best band for that setup. There are also experimental fan dipoles for lower bands, possibly including 60 meters, but 80 meters is not available.  VR2XAN, Alberto, will be on as XX9TXN from Macao June 2-9, SSB, CW and FT8, all bands 160-6, “with a special focus on North America.” He says he will attempt SSB on 80M “and maybe 160.” QSL to IV3SKB.  ZL3IO, Holger is back in Waitangi, Chatham Islands, using the callsign ZL7IO, today to June 4, including the CQ WPX CW weekend, a single operator all band. QSL to DK7AO.  VP0/H – South Shetland Islands SQ4O, Rafal Mazur, says “If everything goes well, I plan to start broadcasting at the end of May” as HF0PAS from the Polish Antarctic Station Arctowski on King George Island. He has installed a Yagi for 20, 15 and 10 meters as well one for 6 meters. Rafal still has plans to install a dipole for 80 and 40 meters. He is expected to be there until October.  TF1OL, Ólafur, and his wife will be on Boa Vista Island, Cape Verde, from June 12 to June 23 for a 10-day stay. During this time, he will be active on FT8 and FT4 on 80 through 6 meters under the callsign D4OL.   If you have questions or need information, just drop me a note at thedxmentor@gmail.com  Until next week, this is Bill, AJ8B saying 73 and thanks to my XYL Karen for her love and support. I Hope to hear you in the pileups! Have a great DX week! 

(Presented by TLPBLACK: A cybersecurity intelligence platform focused on sharing curated, high-sensitivity threat insights and research with trusted security professionals.) Three Buddy Problem x Ekoparty Miami: Perri Adams of DARPA AIxCC fame joins the show to chat about proof engines, formal methods, and why LLMs just made a once-niche corner of computer science suddenly essential. We get into why verifiers and proof engines are the key to effective AI, why vulnerability research is so far ahead of threat intel, and the case for baking security checks directly into code generation tools like Claude Code and Codex. Plus, designing a multi-million dollar challenge that's allowed to fail, the Mythos "too dangerous to release" debate, and musings on every LLM-discovered bug being a public bug by default.

(Presented by TLPBLACK: A cybersecurity intelligence platform focused on sharing curated, high-sensitivity threat insights and research with trusted security professionals.) Three Buddy Problem x Ekoparty Miami: Jordan Wiens, co-founder of Vector 35 and creator of Binary Ninja, talks about a decade spent building a decompiler in a market everyone told him not to enter. He walks through why accessibility drove the whole project, how Binja's intermediate-language system stacks up against IDA, Ghidra, and Radare, and why language-specific decompilation for Rust, C++, and Go is the next real frontier. Plus, thoughts on AI disruption and why "the model can do it" misses the point that the model is just driving the tool, what verifiability really means, whether AI tilts the field toward offense or defense, and questions around subsidized tokens, the collapse of the CTF talent pipeline, and what happens to a craft when the shortcut is always one prompt away.

What does it take to solve the world's most urgent national security and economic challenges? At DARPA, it starts with questioning past assumptions. In this episode, we go behind the scenes of a major organizational pivot to hear directly from the office leaders driving the change. We unpack the "why" behind the new names on the doors of two tech offices: The Multi X Office (MXO): Formerly the Microsystems Technology Office (MTO), MXO is breaking down the walls between physics, chemistry, biology, and materials science. Learn how this integrated approach aims to secure critical supply chains and build resilient physical capabilities. The Information Processing Techniques Office (IPTO): Reaching back to a legendary name from DARPA's history, the former Information Innovation Office (I2O) is focusing on the first principles of computational power and resiliency that will be required to invent the next forward-looking breakthrough technologies for national security. Listen in to hear how DARPA is retooling its strategy, embracing massive scale, and transforming its structure to secure America's future. MXOIPTOSmash Promethean ClayCrystal PalaceIPTO history

Justin Klahn is hard to put in a box. Twenty years inside Nike Innovation. Years embedded with JSOC units building gear that had to actually work. Time consulting with three-letter agencies, DARPA, and the Harvard Learning Innovations Laboratory. A run working directly for Kanye West. He calls himself a problem solver, and the resume backs it up. His new book is Innovator's Handbook. We open on the divorce conversation, the kind of failure neither of us wished for, and what it takes to show up for a partner the second time around. From there it gets wide. The competition mindset that separates the top of the JSOC food chain from everyone else. What it's actually like to sit in a room with Kobe, with Tinker, with Kanye. The Nike origin stories most people don't know — the real Jordan re-signing, the Pantry, the relationship between Phil Knight and Steve Jobs. We dig into the supernatural. Faith. Conspiracy and control. How a guy who advises high-stakes operators stays open enough to consider anything but grounded enough to still get the work done.  And we end on the AI workflow he used to write a book in two weeks — and what that says about where the world is going.  The Innovator's Handbook: https://a.co/d/01Zqj9Q7 Sign up for the Cleared Hot Newsletter Here: https://www.clearedhotpodcast.com/ Pick up your copy of Drownproof Here: https://www.clearedhotpodcast.com/book   Today's Sponsors: Montana Knife Company: https://www.montanaknifecompany.com LMNT: Head to https://www.drinklmnt.com/clearedhot to pick up your free sample pack 

Weichert details the downfall of Charles Lieber, a Harvard scientist and DARPA researcher recruited by the Thousand Talents Program to mirror his nanotechnology work in Wuhan, later convicted for making false statements and hiding Chinese bank accounts. The discussion shifts to CRISPR technology and He Jiankui's controversial genetic splicing on human twins, which reportedly resulted in unintended brain augmentations. Weichert warns that China views biotechnology as "dual-use," meaning advancements intended for civilian health are simultaneously being weaponized by the People's Liberation Army.
