This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we're very much in planning mode - talking babymoon ideas, future parenting rules (we NEED your thoughts on the bed-making debate), and yet another round of nesting. We start with coffee shop talk (yes, the same one we've been talking about for the last two weeks), why good habits take forever to build while bad ones take about two days, and the current parent uniform: sweatsuits with mystery stains. From there, it's full nesting energy (again) - labeling everything (western shorts, IYKYK), debating whether kids are born Type A or if we accidentally make them that way, and getting into the surprisingly divisive question of whether kids should make their own beds (possibly our first real parenting style disagreement live on the pod??). Then we get into technology and boundaries: the no phones in bedrooms rule, what age kids are actually getting phones now, and how we somehow ended up with a landline (yes, really). We celebrate Maria's one-year anniversary with us, spiral into celebrity power couples, Grammys discourse, Valentine's Day card exchanges at school, and our ongoing “no gifts” debate. Mid-episode, we start planning our babymoon (US only, no car required - please send help), talk through joint bachelor/bachelorette parties (fun or a hard no?), share our #1 travel hack that immediately lowers stress (with or without kids), and revisit the ongoing dog conversation - why everyone says we should NOT get one yet, and whether we're secretly a no-pets house… until the day we're not (I still cannot believe Harrison asked if I'd consider a pet spider). We wrap with mall nostalgia (or lack thereof), a classic Bicker of the Week (pool vs. no pool - IN TEXAS), and a new behavioral tactic we'll keep in mind for those future meltdowns: connection before direction. LOVE YOU GUYS. Thanks for listening!!!!

SpaceTime with Stuart Gary | Astronomy, Space & Science News
In this episode of SpaceTime, we explore new insights into the origins of Earth's water, groundbreaking discoveries beneath the surface of Jupiter's volcanic moon Io, and how tectonic plate movements may have influenced Earth's climate throughout history.New Clues on Earth's Water OriginsA recent study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences reveals that asteroid and comet impacts could only account for a small fraction of Earth's water supply. By analyzing oxygen isotopes in lunar regolith collected during the Apollo missions, researchers found that the early Earth likely retained little to no water during its formative years. This challenges long-held beliefs and suggests that the majority of Earth's water must have originated from other sources, rather than being delivered by celestial bodies.Unprecedented Volcanic Activity on IoNASA's Juno spacecraft has captured remarkable data on Io, the most volcanically active body in our solar system. Observations from a December flyby revealed the most energetic eruption ever detected on Io, affecting a vast area of 65,000 square kilometers. The findings indicate that interconnected magma reservoirs beneath Io's surface are responsible for this extraordinary volcanic activity, providing new insights into the moon's geological dynamics and evolution.Tectonic Plates and Earth's ClimateA new study suggests that carbon released from shifting tectonic plates may have played a significant role in Earth's climatic transitions, rather than volcanic activity as previously thought. Researchers reconstructed carbon movements over the last 540 million years, providing evidence that carbon emissions from mid-ocean ridges were the primary drivers of climate shifts between ice ages and warmer periods. This research reshapes our understanding of past climate dynamics and offers valuable insights for future climate models.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesProceedings of the National Academy of SciencesJournal of Geophysical Research PlanetsCommunications Earth and EnvironmentBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.

We have learned a lot about extended spectrum coverage of prophylactic antibiotics for cesarean section. The landmark C/SOAP trial randomized 2,013 women undergoing nonelective cesarean delivery to azithromycin 500 mg IV plus standard prophylaxis versus placebo, demonstrating a 51% reduction in the composite outcome of endometritis, wound infection, or other infection. Adjuvant Zmax (plus standard first-generation cephalosporin) is now recognized as evidence-based antibiotic coverage for intrapartum cesarean, cesarean with ruptured membranes, and patients with obesity. This last patient characteristic comes from the ERAS latest update. But what is ZMAX is not available? Is there an evidence-based peri-op alternative in these cases? Does Gent and Clinda cover mycoplasma/Ureaplasma? What about postop flagyl? Listen in for details. 1. Tita AT, Szychowski JM, Boggess K, et al.

#763 What happens when your business is working… but suddenly feels harder than ever? In this episode, host Kirsten Tyrrel sits down again with Hope Trory of HopeWorksDesign.com to unpack the messy middle of entrepreneurship — when leads are coming in, clients are paying, and you're suddenly balancing delivery and marketing at the same time. Hope shares how to use client feedback (and their exact language) to sharpen your messaging, improve onboarding/offers, and increase retention — plus why memberships can be co-created without overbuilding. They also dig into the power of simple, reliable systems (not just “shiny” AI tools) to lighten the load, and how to avoid time-sucking distractions like endlessly switching CRMs. Hope wraps by sharing her freebies, including the Accessibility Checklist (a win for accessibility and SEO) and her ACE Marketing Assessment to pinpoint what to focus on next! What we discuss with Hope: + The “messy middle” phase + Balancing leads and delivery + Using client language in marketing + Feedback-driven offer improvements + Memberships without overbuilding + Simple, reliable systems + Avoiding shiny-tool distractions + Automations that save time + Retention before new leads Thank you, Hope!

Last week we started a mini-series on Amenities. The deep dive into amenities is based on the outstanding work by apartment operator Greystar, the largest operator of apartments in the US with over 100,000 apartments in their portfolio. We are working with Greystar on our own active adult project in Spokane Washington. If you want to learn more about that amazing project, come and register to our portal at YStreetCapital.com and we will have more to share about the project. This is not a solicitation for investment and of course any investment would be by prospectus only in compliance with SEC regulations.We spoke last week about technology, storage, co-working space, outdoor amenities, kitchens, and security. Today we're talking about packages. Not financing packages, not incentive packages, but the literal boxes showing up at the front door every single day, and what they're quietly telling us about resident behavior, operational risk, and capital allocation in multifamily real estate.The data comes from Greystar's 2024 design survey, specifically focused on package delivery and handling inside apartment communities. On the surface, this looks like a narrow operational topic. But as with many things in real estate, when you zoom out, it reveals something much bigger about how people live and what they value.-------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1) iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613) Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com) LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce) YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso) Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com) **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital) Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, it's one of those episodes where nothing is technically related… and yet somehow it all is. Very Friday energy (but HAPPY MONDAY!!!). We kick things off with Tate entering her unzipping era (a big-girl milestone no one prepares you for!!!) and come to terms with the fact that we've officially become the parents we SWORE we'd never be (hahahaha). We have another SHOW REC (is this our new thing???) - His & Hers.. Then react to Matt Damon and Ben Affleck's take on Netflix and filmmaking (I think we agree?? I mean we are to the point that Harrison bought a phone lock box sooooo). Then it's toddler parent life as usual: discovering that “tractor wheels” are apparently a food, relying on DoorDash as a legitimate parenting strategy, and settling a cohabitating Bicker of the Week we didn't know we felt so strongly about (do you dry off IN the shower or ON the bath mat??). Mid-episode chaos includes gym drama involving a smoothie bar heist (and learning about Harrison's fascination with bank robberies?!), home updates (haunted light, breakfast nook plans, and our couch ordered on vibes alone), and a very real debate about whether Dad gets any say in nursery design. We also talk through our night nurse plan for baby #2 — why we're doing it again and what we learned the first time around. We close with Tate discovering SHOPPPING (hello sparkly cowboy boots), why buying kids clothes for their “future age” is a scam, a viral moment where a mom throws an iPad out the car window (we have thoughts), an alarm clock that charges you to snooze, and the comment section absolutely lighting us up over the word “de-thaw” (WOOPS).

In this episode, I talk about the part of grief that doesn't fit the mold—the way loss makes you different, and how few people truly understand the way we navigate the world afterward. There's an unexpected empowerment that comes from owning that difference. From letting go of how grief should look. From stopping the need to be understood. And from building a life after loss in the way you need to, not the way others expect. If you've ever felt like a misfit in your grief, about how you're doing this and am looking for guidance on owning it, this one is for you.

This week on Mood Killers, Marconi and Eddie unpack how something as simple as a toilet paper delivery managed to cause maximum friction over the weekend. The guys get into annoying trends that refuse to die, including the mysterious rise of “6 7” and why everyone suddenly seems nostalgic for 2016 again. Eddie explains why he has beef with the Netflix series Beef, and the conversation takes a turn into dating territory with the question, would you date someone with an OF? Marconi shares a vague but very real story about a similar experience from his own dating past involving adult content creation. Plus, Eddie makes a bold case for the Denver Broncos possibly heading to the Super Bowl, because why not, and the episode wraps with a much needed Dollop Of Joy.

Trish welcomes a fellow labor and delivery nurse and childbirth educator, Lo Mansfield, also known as The Labor Mama. They discuss the intriguing question of why so many L&D nurses, midwives, and birth pros personally opt for unmedicated births, sharing behind-the-scenes insights from their years on the floor. Trish and Lo open up about their own journeys - Trish recounting her first unmedicated birth at 17 out of sheer needle fear (and loving how she felt like a boss + queen afterward), while Lo explains her mix of clinical experience, like minimizing interventions for better outcomes, and practical perks, such as immediate mobility if baby needs the NICU.They swap hilarious and heartfelt stories of fast labors, OP babies, and the power of a supportive partner, emphasizing how education and trust in your body can make all the difference. Trish and Lo keep it real, reminding mamas that unmedicated birth isn't for everyone - epidurals and interventions can lead to beautiful births too - but empowerment comes from listening to your inner voice and advocating for yourself.More from The Labor MamaVisit thelabormama.comListen to the Lo & Behold PodcastFollow @thelabormama on InstagramHelpful Timestamps:01:44 Lo's Journey into OB Nursing04:52 Unmedicated Birth Choices05:28 Lo's Birth Stories09:23 Trish's Birth Stories17:42 Navigating Hospital Births, Interventions, & Autonomy29:12 The Value of Immediate Post-Birth Mobility31:41 Choosing the Right Birth Setting34:59 Trusting Your Intuition in Birth ChoicesJoin The Calm Labor Birth Bundle - everything you need from bump to baby!

For the past 20 years, Teresa Torres has championed the cause of product discovery. We’ve made progress, she says, but there are plenty of companies and teams out there who don’t know much about their customers – and still think they have all the answers. Is AI exacerbating the problem? In this episode, Teresa returns to Product Momentum taking us on a rollercoaster ride that begins in a pre-ChatGPT world full of hopeful optimism in which product leaders were (slowly, steadily) recognizing the value good Discovery brings – but then spirals through phases of grief as AI-powered Delivery seems to have reclaimed our attention. As you'll hear, Teresa remains bullish on AI. But she's also concerned that AI is pulling us in the wrong direction, making it easier and faster to build and, thus, putting even more emphasis on Delivery. Ever the optimist, Teresa believes that product builders can use the same technology that created today's predicament to help us course-correct, refocusing our attention on high-quality Discovery practices. Here's a few of our key takeaways: AI Might Be Helping Us Build the Wrong Thing In our earlier episode with Teresa (58 / Innovate with Product Discovery, published shortly before the release her Continuous Discovery Habits, a must read for anyone in the software space), Teresa talked about how the product community under-emphasized Discovery and over-emphasized Delivery. It was a time highlighted by a gnawing anxiety that we were building the wrong stuff. Since then, the trend was moving back toward a focus on Discovery, Teresa says, until AI changed the trajectory again. “AI is making it easier and faster to build software,” Teresa says. “But as we do, we’re once again putting even more emphasis on Delivery and forgetting to ask whether we're building the right thing?” AI’s Double-Edged Sword: Broad Participation vs. Product Coherence Teams across the organization are now contributing to software development – a positive trend that Teresa calls awesome. “We want to empower product teams and draw people closer to the customer to impact the product in positive ways,” Teresa says. “But it's equally terrifying: who’s creating product coherence, and how do we make sure [each team] is serving the market and not their own specific needs?” The Opportunity Solution Tree: A Structure Of Discovery That Doesn’t Change With the Opportunity Solution Tree, Teresa provides teams with “a simple underlying structure that gives us a mental representation” of the interaction between what success looks like (outcome), our customers and their needs (opportunity space), and impact on our customers and our business. “Do I think that’s ever gonna change?,” Teresa asks. “I don’t. We're always gonna have to create value for our business. We’re always going to have to create value for our customers. Hopefully, we are doing one thing to accomplish both – not doing competing things.” As AI enables more people to be makers, teams and organizations will learn new skills and allow everyone who wants, to contribute while still delivering a coherent product that serves their users. “I actually think that’s gonna be net positive in the long run,” Teresa concludes. You can catch even more of Teresa’s insights by checking out her podcast, Just Now Possible, which releases new episodes every Thursday. And, beginning this month (Jan. 2026), Teresa and Product Talk are launching a new course called, Business Fundamentals. The post 179 / Teresa Torres: Is AI Re-Prioritizing Delivery Over Discovery (Again)? appeared first on ITX Corp..
The way diners are discovering restaurants has shifted away from reviews and to social media, Loop’s co-founder Anand Tumuluru tells Bloomberg Intelligence.

In this explosive episode, Tara and Lee confront what's unfolding in Minneapolis—and why it matters to the entire country. As roads are blocked, ICE operations obstructed, and police ordered to stand down, a dangerous precedent is taking shape: mob rule replacing law enforcement. From the fallout of the George Floyd case to today's coordinated street actions, this episode explains why President Trump is openly considering invoking the Insurrection Act, what the law actually allows, and why every day of hesitation emboldens chaos. The most chilling moment? A video of protesters conducting an illegal traffic stop—demanding identification, searching a vehicle, and enforcing their own version of “law.” This isn't protest. It's a warning. ⚠️

Prefabrication only reaches its full potential when it's treated as a system, not a shortcut. In this episode of Bridging the Gap, we explore what it really takes to scale prefab beyond one-off projects and into a repeatable delivery model. The discussion dives into how standardization can unlock flexibility, why prefab strategy must be defined early, and how digital tools like BIM, automation, and emerging AI capabilities can enable more predictable outcomes. We also unpack one of the biggest challenges facing industrialized construction today: owning and managing data across the full lifecycle. If you're thinking about prefab as a long-term strategy—not just a construction tactic—this episode offers a grounded, practical perspective. You'll Learn: What “systematizing prefab” means beyond standardizing components Why repeatability is the key to scaling prefab successfully How early decisions shape prefab outcomes downstream Where digital tools truly add value in prefab workflows Why data ownership and lifecycle continuity remain major gaps How standardization can support customization rather than limit it MEET OUR GUEST Our guest is a leader working at the intersection of healthcare, technology, and industrialized construction. With a background spanning marketing, IT, systems engineering, and modular delivery, he brings a unique perspective on how prefabrication can improve speed, quality, and predictability—especially in highly standardized environments like healthcare. His work focuses on building the process infrastructure required to make prefab repeatable, scalable, and digitally connected. TODD TAKES Prefab Only Scales When You Stop Treating It Like a Project Prefab falls short when it's approached as a one-off solution instead of an operating model. The real breakthroughs happen when organizations step back and think in terms of delivery strategy, repeatability, and long-term systems. When prefab becomes infrastructure rather than an experiment, speed, predictability, and quality follow. Standardization Doesn't Kill Flexibility, It Enables It There's a persistent myth that standardization leads to cookie-cutter outcomes. In reality, a strong standardized foundation creates more flexibility, not less. When the core system is consistent, teams can adapt interiors, workflows, and use cases to real-world needs without reinventing the wheel every time. Digital Tools Matter, But Ownership Matters More Construction has no shortage of powerful digital tools. The real gap is ownership and continuity of data across the lifecycle. Without clear responsibility for the digital thread from design through manufacturing and operations, handoffs break down and value gets lost. Technology enables scale, but systems thinking makes it sustainable. More Resources Thanks for listening! Please be sure to leave a rating and/or review and follow up our social accounts.

It's a controversial topic: the impact of uterine incision (hysterectomy) on the neonate delivery interval (also called the U-D interval). Does it matter? Just to be clear, we're talking about time from uterine entry to fetal extraction, not skin incision to fetal extraction. Past publications have produced conflicting results, often limited by small sample sizes, heterogeneous indications for delivery, and reliance on surrogate markers (like apgar scores) rather than clinical morbidity. But a new study published in the Gray journal at the end of 2025 (December 30, 2025) gives some new insights. In this episode, we will review this retrospective study and play the “Devil's advocate” as we summarize the rebuttal data. As the reports are conflicting, we will end the podcast with a real-world interpretation and application of this data. Listen in for details. 1. Bart, Yossi et al.
