Artificial sweeteners are linked to faster memory loss and thinking decline, equal to 1.6 years of extra brain aging People under 60 who consume the most low or no-calorie sweeteners face the steepest drop in verbal fluency and overall cognition, making midlife a key time to cut them out Adults with diabetes are at even higher risk, with sharper declines in memory and global thinking skills when relying on artificial sweeteners and sugar substitutes The harmful effects were consistent across years of testing, showing that continued use steadily chips away at brain function You can protect your brain by eliminating artificial sweeteners, using natural options like fruit, honey, monk fruit, and dextrose, and focusing on foods that fuel steady energy

In a recent WSJ article entitled "Travis Kelce Is Jumping In to Save Six Flags Just When It Needed It Most", the author notes that all theme parks are down, and Six Flags needs a rescue. So, we decided to unpack the why, the how, and the what to do to reenergize theme parks.  The conversation goes from Travis' desire for more thrilling roller coasters to proposing new ideas for amusing people. The conversation highlights the need for themed environments to be well-maintained and the significance of pricing strategies in shaping customer perceptions. The hosts also emphasize the necessity for amusement parks to rethink their offerings to attract a broader audience and enhance the overall experience.   Takeaways Travis Kelce's involvement with Six Flags aims to revitalize the brand. Traditional amusement parks are struggling due to lack of innovation. Celebrity endorsements alone cannot fix underlying experience issues. The upkeep of themed environments is crucial for customer satisfaction. Amusement parks need to diversify their offerings beyond roller coasters. Experiential innovations are essential to compete with new entertainment options. Customer experience should be prioritized over celebrity influence.

Episode 4899: American Cities Are In Collapse; The Decline Of Public Spaces And Commons

Steve Wozniak is the engineer who built Apple. Then he did something Silicon Valley still doesn't understand: he gave millions of his own money away to early employees, walked away from power, and refused to play the game everyone else was playing. While HP rejected his design and competitors built walled gardens, Wozniak's philosophy of open architecture, the very one a young Steve Jobs fought against, is what saved Apple long enough for it to become Apple. This is the story of the reluctant founder who won by refusing to compromise, and a blueprint for success without selling your soul. ----- Chapters: (00:00) Introduction (01:31) Part 1: Pranks and Paper Computers (18:11) Part 2: The First Personal Computer (30:46) Part 3: Apple Computer Corporation (41:02) Part 4: Apple's Decline (46:02) Epilogue (48:02) Rules To Live By ----- Upgrade: Get hand-edited transcripts and an ad-free experience, and so much more.

Land isn't just dirt under buildings—it's the world's oldest, strangest asset, worth an estimated $180T, quietly steering credit cycles, politics, and who gets to build the future. Economist editor and Money Talks host Mike Bird joins us to decode the “land trap”: why superstar cities underbuild, how mortgages turned banks into land-collateral machines, and what Japan's 1980s super-bubble can (and can't) teach us about China's managed deflation today. We trace ownership from Babylonian stone ledgers to modern cadastres, ask whether America ever ran a de facto “land standard,” and explore pragmatic exits: build where demand is, deepen capital markets so homes aren't the only savings vehicle, and tax land value uplift to fund infrastructure. ---

The Wedding, Manet's Decline, and the Posthumous Fight Over Morisot's Legacy. Sebastian Smee discusses how in the aftermath of the "terrible year," Édouard Manet painted Berthe Morisot several times in a series Smee considers one of the greatest records of intimacy in art history. Manet resolved the situation by setting Berthe up with his brother, Eugène Manet, who proved to be a good husband who supported Berthe's dedication to painting. Despite Édouard advising against it, Berthe joined the first Impressionist exhibition, demonstrating her "incredible audacity and independence." The sad aspect was Édouard Manet's decline: he suffered from syphilis and died in agony after a leg amputation. Following Berthe Morisot's death (she contracted an illness while tending to her sick daughter, Julie), Renoir, Degas, and Monet came together to stage a posthumous exhibition to honor her. The process was volatile because each painter felt a fierce, private relationship with her work. In the 20th century, Morisot was often overlooked by male critics who dismissed her domestic subject matter, though her peers viewed her art as innovative and brilliant.

3. LONDINIUM 91 CE. Hollywood and Rome. Gaius and Germanicus concluded their meeting by critiquing Hollywood's portrayal of Roman decline, focusing on Gladiator 2. Gaius admitted he could not finish the film due to its historically inaccurate conclusion. The film's ultimate payoff—the removal of bad emperors and the return to the Republic—is viewed as fundamentally wrong. Gaius argued that empires do not revert to republics, as the republic was "aged out" and the empire was necessary, suggesting that Hollywood confuses the word "republic" with "democracy." Germanicus elaborated on this distortion, noting that societies frequently look back and shape the past into a "golden age" from which they have fallen. The founders of the American republic were informed by Rome and Greece, viewing Rome as a morality play detailing triumph, tragedy, and the ultimate loss of virtue. This tradition of distortion was reinforced by Gibbon's Decline and Fall, which packaged the later empire as corrupted by "barbarism and religion" to suit the ideals of the Enlightenment. This historical lens persists, leading to a simplistic modern conventional wisdom, especially prevalent in Hollywood media, that "republic is good, empire is bad." Hollywood fails to recognize that the imperial institution maintained many of the Republic's institutions and sensibilities. Furthermore, the media elite confuses the Roman imperial office with a "mafia don" or "banana republic dictatorship." The speakers concluded that while they see the world "as it is," American aspirations (like those reflected in Hollywood) see the world "as they want it to be." AGRIPPINA MINOR Retry

In this episode of The Ross Simmonds Show, Ross was invited by Craig Hewitt of Rogue Startups Podcast to explore how AI is transforming B2B marketing, sales operations, and digital strategy. They cover the decline of traditional SEO, the rise of Reddit as a powerful discovery platform, the evolving importance of LinkedIn and YouTube, and practical advice on AI tools, personalization, and productivity. This is a must-listen for marketers, SaaS founders, and anyone looking to future-proof their growth strategies in an AI-driven world. Key Takeaways and Insights: 1. What's working now?” in B2B and SaaS marketing - Personal brand content from team members on social media.  - Micro-influencers and content creators paid on performance for lead-generating videos.  2. Create “ridiculously valuable” and original content - insightful data or perspectives that AI can't replicate. - AI makes distribution and repurposing easier, but not idea generation or storytelling. - Personalization tools like Loom or LinkedIn voice messages still work well, but are hard to scale. 3. Content Repurposing & Platform Strategy - Repurposing content—doing it well beyond basic automation tools. - LinkedIn → best for B2B buyers and thought leadership. - Twitter/X → still relevant for technical audiences and startup visibility.  - Instagram → underutilized channel with potential.  - YouTube → huge upside for discoverability + long-form value, but tough to execute well. 4. SEO in Decline? - AI has definitely reduced Google traffic—marketers must embrace multi-channel discovery. - YouTube, Instagram, Reddit, and social as the new search engines. 5. Bonus Frameworks: - “Ross's Hierarchy of Needs”: Revenue > Traffic > Channels. - “Distribution Framework”: Audience Attention vs Competitive Saturation = Channel Opportunity. Underhyped vs Overhyped AI Trends - Underhyped: Reddit - Massive influence in buyer decisions. - Google indexing Reddit heavily due to user trust. - Overhyped: Quora - Once valuable, now polluted and ineffective.

SHOW NOTES: It seems as if civilization, especially the arts, are in decline. Famed authors are "mailing it in" (or really writing to try to sell a screenplay, not a book). Laugh tracks have to remind us when the writers think something is funny, but otherwise it isn't. Quiz shows, talk shows, news shows all seem out of the same mold, which is 50 years old. No newscaster ever says to a politician being interviewed, "But you didn't answer my question. It was a 'yes or no' question." Despite the decline, athletes, celebrities, news anchors, and politicians receive obscene salaries, endorsements, and benefits. We seem to have lost our taste, misplaced our judgment. We're receiving pap and being told it's wagyu beef. You might find it easier to be getting around these days. But that might have nothing to do with quality or smarts, but rather just the direction in which society is heading.

There has been a significant decline in confidence in the Irish economy among businesses operating in the 'experience economy'. That is according to a new survey carried out by employers group Ibec. More than 70 businesses operating in the sector were surveyed as part of the research, including hospitality, retail, travel, tourism, food, drink, entertainment, the arts, sports and events. 7 out of 10 businesses said reduced overseas demand was a major concern.

In this gripping episode, Johnny sits down with security expert Ed Calderon to break down the brewing storm across Latin America — from U.S. military posturing near Venezuela to narco-terrorism, drone warfare, and covert operations in Mexico. Ed warns that the “War on Drugs” is being rebranded as a war on narco-terror, granting governments new powers while blurring the lines between criminals, rebels, and civilians. They discuss how cartels are adopting drone and submarine tech, how Colombian mercenaries are shaping global conflicts, and why Mexico may already have U.S. boots on the ground. From fentanyl myths to Venezuelan oil politics, rare-earth resources, and the future of North American geopolitics, this episode dives deep into the shadow war few are talking about. -U.S. and Venezuela tensions -Covert ops and “narco-terrorism” narrative -Drone and submarine warfare by cartels -Rare-earths, oil, and geopolitical motives -Mexico's internal corruption and militarization -Predictions for a continental conflict Go Support Ed!

For decades, peanut allergies were on the rise in the US. But a study released on October 20 found that peanut allergies in babies and young children are now decreasing. This drop correlates with a change in guidance from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. In 2017, the agency started recommending exposing children to peanuts “early and often.” Since that recommendation, the prevalence of peanut allergies has dropped significantly.Sharon Chinthrajah, a physician specializing in allergies and immunology, churns through the findings with Host Flora Lichtman.  Guest: Dr. Sharon Chinthrajah is a physician specializing in allergy and immunology at the Sean N.

Donald Trump seems to be crashing out, and fast. After a string of unhinged remarks during a speech to the troops and a bizarre moment where he bragged (again) about passing a dementia test, the question practically asks itself: is Donald Trump okay? What's definitely not okay is the economy. SNAP benefits are set to expire this week, Americans are struggling to afford groceries, healthcare, and basic necessities, and somehow, Trump's still talking about himself and his absurdly unnecessary ballroom. This morning, Don is joined by friend of the show Reecie Colbert to break down Trump's decline, his delusions, and the very real pain everyday Americans are feeling while he plays emperor.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sat down with Hillel Neuer, Executive Director of UN Watch, to expose the corruption and hypocrisy within the United Nations and how it has become one of the world's biggest enablers of antisemitism and terror.From the Soviet Union's 1975 campaign declaring “Zionism is racism” to today's Hamas apologists like Francesca Albanese, Neuer reveals how the UN was captured by authoritarian regimes and weaponised against Israel. He details how organisations like UNRWA have been infiltrated by Hamas operatives, turning schools and aid programmes into fronts for jihad — all funded by Western taxpayers.Neuer explains why the so-called “rules-based international order” never truly existed, how the Human Rights Council became a haven for dictatorships, and why Britain and Europe continue to bankroll organisations that indoctrinate children to hate.A shocking and essential conversation on the UN's betrayal of its founding principles, the persistence of antisemitism in international institutions, and the urgent need for moral courage and reform in the West.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chapters 0:00 Introduction2:59 Francesca Albanese and the UN's Inconsistencies 5:16 Albanese's Support for Hamas and Anti-Semitism8:03 The UN Human Rights Council and Its Members 11:00 The UN's Political Nature and the ICJ 13:24 The UN's Decline and the Soviet Influence17:17 The 1975 UN Resolution on Zionism29:52 UNRWA's Role and Its Radicalisation 34:24 UNRWA's Operations and Corruption52:15 The Need for De-Radicalisation and Reform 55:04 The Role of the UN and Future Reforms Hosted on Acast.

SummaryIn this conversation, Dr. Jeffrey D. Skinner discusses the decline of the Attractional Church model and emphasizes the importance of relationships in fostering lasting faith. He argues that the church's focus should shift from performance and spectacle to authentic presence and meaningful connections. The discussion highlights the need for churches to prioritize formation over mere attendance, advocating for a return to the core mission of love and community. Skinner provides practical takeaways for church leaders to navigate this transition effectively.TakeawaysThe Attractional Church model is fading.Relationships are the strongest predictor of lasting faith.Positive experiences with the Christian community shape identity.Methods built on image erode authenticity and trust.People want to be known by the church, not impressed.The church's impact is based on how it leads, not what it produces.Relevance fades fast; relationship endures.Transformation happens in shared life, not in crowds.The church is a people we become, not a place we attend.The church that endures is the most authentic.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/echoes-through-eternity-with-dr-jeffery-skinner--5523198/support.Echoes Through Eternity Guiding church planters and pastors to plant seeds of prayer, holiness, and courage that outlast a lifetime. contact drjefferydskinner@protonmail.com

In this episode of Financial Clarity for Doctors, hosts Rachelle Vanderzanden and Corey Janoff discuss some potential complications of declining property values.  Don't panic!  This may not even apply to you, but it's good information to understand.  If your home is worth less than you expect:  If you purchased in the last couple of years and want to refinance, you may not be able to do so.  Many banks require a certain percentage of equity to refinance your loan.  Try to get the details of refinancing before you buy!  You won't be able to borrow against the value of your home unless you have enough equity.  If you need to sell, you may end up actually paying money to get out of the house.  For example, if you purchased a home for $900,000 and paid 10% down but your home is now worth $800,000, the proceeds from the sale may not be enough to pay off your mortgage and pay the closing costs on the loan.  If you're staying put, it may not be a big deal at all!   Generally, the longer you plan to stay in a home, the less likely you will be hit with some of these problems.  You probably will have much more equity in a home you've lived in for ten years than one you lived in for three years.  For more financial planning tips from Corey and Rachelle, you can reach out to them at podcast@thefinitygroup.com.
