Sermon Summary: "The Heart Issue!"## Sermon Summary: “The Heart Is the Issue”Cielita’s message centered on the idea that the root of all spiritual growth, struggle, and transformation is the condition of the heart. Drawing extensively from Scripture, she emphasized that external behavior problems are symptoms, not the cause—the true issue is internal.### 1. The Heart as the Source of Life She taught that the heart is deceitful and deeply affected by sin, referencing passages from Jeremiah, Proverbs, Mark, and Romans. Decisions, words, and actions ultimately flow from the heart, not just the mind. Because of this, God looks at the heart when judging, not merely outward actions.### 2. Salvation and Transformation Begin in the Heart Cielita explained that salvation itself is a heart issue—“with the heart one believes unto righteousness.” God’s work in believers includes giving them a new heart, with new desires aligned to His will. This inward change enables believers to move “from glory to glory” and reflect God’s image to the world.### 3. Mind Renewal and Spiritual Warfare A major theme was the renewal of the mind. She stressed that not every thought comes from God or even from ourselves; believers must resist deceptive or destructive thoughts and replace them with God’s Word. Victory comes through being a doer of the Word, not just a hearer.She warned that unresolved heart issues—such as fear, unforgiveness, wrong beliefs, or cultural influences—can keep people stuck in cycles of sin or dysfunction, even after salvation.### 4. Uprooting What Opposes God’s Word Using imagery from Jeremiah 1, Cielita described the process of spiritual growth as one of:• Uprooting • Tearing down • Destroying • OverthrowingAnything in the heart that opposes God’s Word must be dealt with decisively. She emphasized that this requires intentional effort, honesty, and willingness to face uncomfortable areas rather than avoiding them.### 5. Obedience and Application Are Essential She underscored that revelation without application is ineffective. Knowing Scripture is not enough; transformation comes when believers apply it in daily life, allowing the Holy Spirit to convict, guide, and heal. True change is a process, but avoiding the heart work only delays growth and breakthrough.### 6. Healing, Wholeness, and Purpose Cielita explained that biblical salvation (sozo) means more than eternal life—it includes wholeness, healing, restoration, and freedom. Addressing heart issues leads to peace, joy, and the ability to walk in God’s purpose and help others effectively.### 7. Call to Self-Examination She closed by encouraging listeners to ask the Holy Spirit:• What heart issues need to be addressed? • What beliefs or patterns must be removed before growth can occur? • What fears or habits are being avoided rather than confronted?The message concluded with prayer, calling believers to trust God with their hearts, allow His Spirit to transform them, and live as active disciples who reflect Christ in their words and actions.
Plenty to do on this Thursday evening, and we are going to start by playing a little catch up with an old friend we haven't had on in what seems like NINE years. I could be wrong but it's been a long while since Jordan Sather of @Destroying-the-Illusion jumped on with me, but tonight we'll talk about Cannabis Psychosis, the WHO-related stories from last night, James Van Der Beek's sad death, and more. In the second half I am crossing my fingers that Matt will show up, because I know he'll like this segment I have planned on banned Winter Olympic Sports, and other ridiculous extras.

Most people unknowingly sabotage their metabolism and liver health first thing in the morning. In this episode, Ben explains why common “healthy” breakfasts spike insulin, shut down fat burning, and block liver repair before the day even begins. You'll learn what actually happens in your body overnight, why morning insulin sensitivity is so fragile, and how sugary or carb-heavy breakfasts lock you into fat storage mode all day long. Ben breaks down the hidden sugar content in foods like smoothies, oatmeal, cereal, yogurt, and juice, and explains why this is a timing issue, not a willpower issue. Ben also shares a simple liver-reset morning protocol, including when to delay breakfast, when to eat, and what to eat to support fat burning, stable energy, and better labs. He answers common questions about fasting, muscle loss, women's hormones, smoothies, and why traditional breakfast advice is outdated. If you struggle with stubborn belly fat, morning brain fog, energy crashes, or worsening labs despite “doing everything right,” this episode will change how you think about breakfast forever.

Is selfishness destroying your marriage? If you've ever thought "I'm looking out for myself," this Words From The Word devotion will show you God's warning—and His blueprint for oneness. Pastor Roderick Webster teaches from Ephesians 5:28-31 (KJV) and reveals the truth: when self is at the center of marriage, the relationship loses its purpose and heads for destruction.Scripture paints a different picture. Husbands are called to love their wives as their own bodies, just as Christ loves and nourishes the church. When Adam saw Eve, he said, "This is bone of my bone and flesh of my flesh"—he understood they were one. God still expects this in marriage today.You might be asking:What does "one flesh" actually mean in daily life?How do I love my wife the way God commands?What does "leaving and cleaving" look like practically?How do I stop selfishness from ruining my marriage?In this devotion you'll learn:Why selfishness destroys what God designed for oneness (Ephesians 5)How Christ's love for the church is your marriage modelWhat Adam understood about marriage that we must understand todayThe biblical command to leave your parents and cleave to your wifeIf this devotion challenged you, like, subscribe, and share it with a married couple who needs to hear this truth today.#WordsFromTheWord #BiblicalMarriage #Ephesians5 #KJV #ChristianMarriage00:00 Introduction and Greetings00:03 The Importance of Devotions in Marriage01:02 Biblical Foundation of Marriage01:50 The Role of Love and Submission02:14 Unity in Marriage02:35 Adam and Eve: The First Marriage03:47 Selfishness in Marriage04:25 Christ's Love for the Church07:12 The Oneness of the Body of Christ09:03 Leaving and Cleaving in Marriage10:37 Conclusion and Final Blessings

On this episode of The ToosDay Crüe, hosts Jake and Stephen welcome US Marine Corps combat veteran David Shoup, founder of Warriors Awakening and a leading voice in the fight to eliminate PTSD from the lives of veterans and active-duty service members. David served as an infantry rifleman during Operation Iraqi Freedom, with additional duties supporting special operations units in multiple environments. After leaving active duty, he faced the brutal reality many combat veterans know all too well—nightmares, rage, anxiety, isolation, and emotional chaos. But David refused to accept that PTSD was a life sentence. Through years of intensive study, high-level coaching, and mission-focused action, David developed a powerful system rooted in psychological science, neurological strategies, and battlefield-tested discipline. His approach isn't therapy—it's an operational manual for freedom, designed to help warriors reclaim clarity, purpose, and control over their lives. Today, David leads a national movement through Warriors Awakening, empowering veterans to fight back, take ownership of their healing, and live with strength and intention once again.

After Memegate went viral on Friday, the usual battle in our virtual Civil War raged on. I had this exchange on X and was answered by Conor Friedersdorf:To Trump's enemies, this was yet another crisis not to go to waste. It was the perfect way to reel back some of those Nicki Minaj supporters who might be thinking about flipping to Trump. The midterms are coming up, and they're desperately worried about losing votes of yet another necessary demographic. That's all it's been for ten years now, emotional blackmail to convince us that Trump really is that bad while offering nothing in return. They have addressed nothing. They have fixed nothing. They have offered only a fanatical cult and a rigid ideology of an oppressor/oppressed mindset, and then demanded everyone go along with it, or they're racists, homophobes, bigots, Nazis. Here is a TikTocker:The Democrats and the ruling class that props up their collapsing empire are in a hell of their own making. They never addressed the people's needs after their 2016 loss because that would mean acknowledging their own failures. Instead, they made Trump the enemy and went to war, a war they're losing.All they ever had to do was offer the people something better, but they couldn't even do that because what they want is their utopia back, the one I helped build, and the one I escaped once it became a Doomsday Cult. Had they left him alone, just allowed his four years to play out like a normal president, as opposed to Obama, Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden attempting to frame him as a Russian asset, the Demcorats impeaching him, the legacy media and all of culture taking a side against him and his supporters, maybe he would have been a one-term president and gone back to a life of golfing at Mar-a-Lago.But instead, they whipped up a World War II fantasy in which they were “brave resistance” fighting an existential crisis that threatened to topple America and the world, with very little evidence to show for it, then or now. That made it oh so easy to blame Trump and not themselves.I look now at those still trapped inside the Doomsday Cult that I escaped, and I can't believe the level of delusion. Look at this post by musician Jack White, which is liked by Jimmy Kimmel. So let me make it perfectly clear for those who might be wondering after the scandal du jour: I don't regret my vote for Trump and I never will, because even now, the Left is worse. Their reaction is worse. They are never telling the truth, not to us, not to themselves. All they have to sell is hate and fear. They aren't getting less crazy and more sane. They are not becoming kinder, more tolerant, and more forgiving. They still have no idea what democracy means - spoiler alert: you can't always get what you want. They have never learned the lesson in ten years. They still believe that winning their war is forcing all of us to go along with their distorted version of reality. And add that to these crazy people on TikTok, and you start to see that the reason Trump won is that he's closer to normal than they are. They just don't realize that they're the problem. Their totalitarian tendencies left over from 2020 never fully died because there was never any accountability in the mainstream. Remember that crowd that swarmed that woman and demanded she raise her fist for Black Lives Matter:Here are a bunch of crazy women at a Core Power Yoga studio in Minneapolis doing the same thing: go along with us or else.That same autonomous zone that was erected in 2020:Well, that's back too, only this time the police got rid of it much quicker, knowing Tom Homan and Trump won't stand for it.Do they really expect us to vote for these psychopaths? Put them back in power? And why, because Trump accidentally shared a meme with a racist image of the Obamas at the end of it? Sorry, they have to deal with the fanatics who have swallowed up their party first because they are still too erratic and unhinged to lead this country. What are they going to do with all of us? With Trump? Throw us into re-education camps? Gulags? Shoot us outright?GET TRUMPThe Left's 10-year campaign to get Trump is like watching Yosemite Sam go after Bugs Bunny. They always think they're just seconds away from catching him at long last.They believe deeply in their mission to destroy Trump, just as Yosemite Sam does. It's just that we see Bugs Bunny a little differently. Whatever else Trump is, he's not the guy they say he is, and for that, they will always be one step behind, swinging and missing. I didn't get that until I found my way out. As someone who got online 30 years ago, I wasn't ready for the effects of the feedback loop on my brain, and I don't think most people on the Left even realized they were living inside a reality-distorting machine. I had to watch Trump videos on my own, get to know him and his supporters, and humanize them. I found that I unexpectedly empathized with Trump. It wasn't just that I could finally see the real human being, but because I, too, had been demonized and attacked for being a person I knew I wasn't. All I had to do was walk in the shoes of his supporters to see what monsters they really are on the Left. The more they attack Trump, the more his supporters rally to protect him, not just because they have been thrown away like human garbage by these people, but also because they look at Trump and they see a flawed hero, someone who doesn't always get it right, who makes big mistakes, who is anything but perfect. But he's also someone who fights for them.Our culture used to understand flawed heroes because they were in so many movies and books.Indiana Jones in Raiders of the Lost Ark:Humphrey Bogart Casablanca.Clint Eastwood in Unforgiven.What counts isn't their past or their goodness or their purity, but their actions. We all treated Obama like a religious figure, and still do, which partly explains the over-reaction by the Left. It's blasphemy to mock Obama, whereas it's an American pastime to mock Trump. Today's Left seems to desire perfection from cradle to grave and is unforgiving of flawed heroes, especially white men. But Trump is a great character of history, a living legend. They just got the story wrong. Here is Dominic Sandbrook on Triggernometry:Trump is a hero to so many of us, not because he's perfect or “good” but because he is a fighter who got the dirty job done and saved the day. Crimes against humanityI asked Conor Friedersdorf the same question I would put to any Democrat. Can you name something — one thing — Trump has done that is worse than sterilizing children who can't consent? Destroying their bodies with medical experiments? Never having the courage to stand up to the cult? Now that the lawsuits are coming, and prominent groups like the AMA are openly opposing gender transition treatments for minors, the Democrats will pretend they were always against it. But we can't let them do that. The Democrats have not just supported it every step of the way; they have actively blocked any action taken to safeguard children. It took the Republicans standing on the right history yet again, as they did during the Civil War, to push this thing through, and it took the election of Donald Trump to finally bring the hammer down.Only Trump, in his plain-spoken, flawed hero kind of way, had the guts to say it out loud, without fear, and that gave others more courage to fight back. But Trump wasn't only saying things. He was doing things. And before long, the dominoes began to fall. What could Trump have done that even comes close to what has happened to kids at the hands of 15 years of Democrat rule? What's worse? Saying “Quiet, Piggy” to a reporter? Tearing down the East Wing to build a ballroom? The Kennedy Center? An offensive meme?Their climate of fear and culture of silence made it too dangerous to take a brave stand, which is why it was left to the brave men and women who risked their lives and careers to put a stop to the madness once and for all.And along with their ever-increasing authoritarianism, we'd be the UK if Elon Musk had not bought Twitter and turned it into X, and if Trump hadn't won.Here is Graham Linehan speaking in Congress:So when people say, “You could have picked a different Republican, but you picked Trump,” I flip it back onto them. Tell me what Trump has done, just one thing, that comes close to this, and be prepared to answer it 20 years from now, because I promise to hang it around your necks like a dead cat for as long as I live. Here is a TikToker:On this alone, I would have voted for any Republican. I'd always say, “I am not a Trump supporter but…” Then, they raided Mar-a-Lago, and when they indicted him, when they tried to throw him in jail, that made me a Trump supporter. That made me the Braveheart meme.There won't be any Sister Souljah moments in this Democratic Party.I have been waiting for six years for the Democrats to snap out of it and come back to reality. That day never came. If anything, they're crazier now than they've ever been. Anyone who wants their votes has no choice but to go along with it. The Democrats can't snap out of it even if they wanted to. Gavin Newsom can't sell anything but hate and hysteria. Even Jon Ossoff, a guy I once supported and fought for, must sell the same thing because they have nothing else.They have given people like me no path back because the only option is going back to the Doomsday Cult that insists I call Trump and the other half of America racists when I know that it isn't true. A cult that demands I buy into the oppressor/oppressed mandate, and demands I look the other way as they indoctrinate our kids and destroy every great thing this country ever built.I could have been one of those who hovered reluctantly in the middle and held my nose and voted for Trump. Maybe I could have salvaged some of my reputation such that when I died, they might say good things about me instead of dancing on my grave.I could have spent my time apologizing, trying to rebuild my liberal cred by denouncing Trump and throwing him under the bus, like Marjorie Taylor Greene. I could have used that to boost myself, every time another wave of mass hysteria pulsed through our society, because see, Trump IS a fascist! And see, Trump is a dictator and a racist! You were right all along! But that would not be the truth. Trump is only in power because we put him there. We wanted someone tough enough, strong enough, and persistent enough to never back down, never shrink back, never hand power to those who want to put half the country in re-education camps. The Democrats might still be the ruling class, dominating most institutions, all of our culture, and the legacy media, but the rest of us have Trump, our last best hope to fight for the country we love.And if some days it feels like trying to keep from falling overboard or getting seasick, most of us knew what we were getting into when we climbed aboard. We got what we voted for. So no, I don't regret my vote for Trump. I only regret I didn't see it sooner. I didn't see what we were building, the damage we would cause, or where it was headed until it was too late. // This is a public episode.

In this episode of Farming Without the Bank, we dig into Chapter 8: Building Your Warehouse of Wealth and talk about what self-insuring really looks like using cash value life insurance, and where it absolutely does not make sense to go it alone.

Are you living a life of comfort or a life of purpose? Most of us love a good story of sacrificial courage: like Frodo Baggins taking the ring to Mordor or Ernest Shackleton rescuing his crew from the Antarctic ice. But when it comes to our own lives, we often find ourselves resisting the very thing that makes those stories great: sacrifice.In the final session of The Core, part of our Year of the Forge series, Pastor Mark dives into the "Nerd-egesis" of sacrifice. We explore why sacrifice is not an invitation to burnout or bad mental health, but rather an invitation into God's kingdom and your true purpose.
If you feel like your workouts are “working”… but your body constantly hurts, this episode is going to change the way you think about strength training.Because the truth is: most people don't get injured because they're weak. They get injured because they're following programs that ignore how their body is actually built.In this episode of the Redefining Strength Podcast, I sit down with Dr. John Rusin. A world-renowned performance coach, physical therapist, and creator of the Pain-Free Performance system.Together, we break down:Why true strength isn't about specific exercises like squats, deadlifts, or bench pressWhy the “no pain, no gain” mindset is secretly sabotaging your progressHow forcing “perfect form” can actually be what's causing your painWhy there is no single ideal way to move—and how to find the best movements for YOUR bodyHow to build strength, muscle, and resilience without beating up your jointsThe biggest recovery mistake most people make (and how to fix it)Why doing less—at higher quality—often produces better resultsHow to train hard AND stay pain-free for lifeIf you've ever thought:“I'm getting stronger… but everything hurts.”“I feel like workouts are slowly breaking me down.”“I'm afraid to lift heavy because I don't want to get injured.”“I don't know which exercises are actually right for me.”This episode is for you.
If you're trying to scale your dental practice by copying what worked for another dentist, this episode will save you years of stress. “Copy-paste scaling” looks smart on paper, new locations, bigger teams, more production, but it often builds a bigger hamster wheel that drains your energy, wrecks your marriage, and destroys your health. In this conversation, we expose the real reason most practices stall: it's not a production problem… it's leadership dressed up in a white coat. Eric Moore from Tower Leadership breaks down why templates fail in dentistry, why strategy must be personal, and how the best practice growth starts with one question: What do you want? Whether you're a solo doc trying to regain sanity, building a multi-doctor practice, or thinking about DSOs/private equity, you'll learn how to scale with clarity, without becoming the bottleneck. If you want practice growth, better systems, more profit, and a business that supports your life (instead of consuming it), this episode gives you the mindset shift and the framework to do it right. You'll Learn: → Why dentists are drawn to templates and “proven systems,” and how that mindset backfires when your ambition, family life, stress tolerance, and leadership style don't match the person you're copying. → The difference between the “science” of business metrics and the “art” of scaling, strategy, differentiation, culture, motivation, and attracting top talent. → Why every business should start with an exit, how reverse engineering your end goal creates faster and more efficient growth. → Why the foundation of real practice expansion is building the leader who great people choose to follow.

They discuss why delegation is critical, how to hire the right people instead of doing everything yourself, and why law firm culture directly impacts marketing, intake, and long-term profitability. Michael also explains how referral-based firms must adapt to a changing digital landscape, the dangers of relying on a single marketing channel, and how law firm owners can reclaim their time while increasing firm value.

I survived the world's unhealthiest diet! Find out how I went from eating the unhealthiest foods in the world to finally getting my health on track. In this video, I'll show you which foods contribute to insulin resistance and how you can shift from an ultra-processed diet to a healthy one. Download Dr. Berg's Free Daily Health Routine: https://drbrg.co/45qtO07 0:00 Introduction: The unhealthiest diet in the world 1:30 Side effects of an unhealthy diet 2:41 Dopamine and sugar overload4:32 Environment and the processed food diet 6:28 How to quit sugar and junk food My entire childhood was filled with sugar, starch, seed oils, sweetened cereals, candy, soda, TV dinners, and more. As I got older, I'd graze after dinner until bedtime every single night. I consumed junk food and refined foods in the military while my life was high in stress and low in sleep. In college, I dealt with more stress, drank lots of coffee, and ate more junk food. Side effects of my unhealthy diet included:• Ulcers • Liver and gallbladder problems • Referred pain in the right shoulder • Restless legs syndrome• Nervousness • Insomnia • Dry eyes • Severe arthritis • Kidney stones I weighed 211 pounds, but the food I was eating was not satisfying! Refined carbs and sugar stimulate dopamine, which is not a pleasure neurotransmitter. Dopamine is an anticipatory neurotransmitter. The more you have, the more your body wants. If you eat too much junk food, you can develop dopamine resistance. This is what drives addiction, and why ultra-processed foods may satisfy you initially, but leave you feeling hungry an hour later. This is called dopamine hunger!You're not struggling with your diet because of a lack of willpower; it's your environment. The modern world is engineered with so many things to keep us hooked and addicted. Removing the triggers is the only solution!Ditch your unhealthy diet by focusing on your environment first. Try these steps:1. Get rid of ultra-processed foods: seed oils, starches, and sugar.2. No snacking, especially at night.3. No visible food.4. Find healthy substitutes for junk food.5. No blue light at night.6. Never go to the grocery store hungry or without a list. 7. Preserve your sleep.8. Be careful with social events.

Most of us want strong, healthy connections, but we're not always sure when to say no or how to set boundaries without feeling selfish or unloving. Is it possible to protect your relationships without pushing them away, or is it time to get out? In this episode of the Live Changed Podcast, we're getting real about boundaries: what they are (and aren't), why saying no can strengthen your relationships, and how to set boundaries that don't just honor yourself, but honor God and others too.Download the Audio Podcast Here:
The cost of perfection left me perfectly exhausted. Be thin, but not too thin. Be confident but not overly confident. Be successful, but not too successful. If you're with me and you experience the pressure to be perfect, this is a perfect paradox—and it is time to dump the impossible standards that are destroying your mental health and that are so tied to eating disorders. In this episode, I'm diving into the relentless pressure to be perfect and how it's literally rewiring your brain to keep you stuck. Whether you're just starting your recovery journey or you've been on this path for years, perfectionism might feel like both an old friend and your biggest obstacle. And when you couple perfectionism with the pressure from culture and society to be Instagram-ready? The output you receive is simply exhaustion. You're exhausted, sis. And trying to live up to these impossible standards. But today, we're going to dissect this. We're going to look at what science says about breaking free. Because you don't just have to take my word for it—research shows your brain can actually change. In this episode, you'll discover: The impossible standards we're all trying to live up to (and why they're literally impossible) The shocking statistics: 68% of individuals with eating disorders display clinically significant perfectionism Why perfectionism often appears YEARS before any eating disorder behaviors The deep roots of perfectionism: family dynamics, trauma, social media (users who spend 3+ hours/day are 60% more likely to develop body image issues) The neuroscience: How perfectionists have heightened activity in the brain's "error detection center" How altered serotonin and dopamine systems make it harder for perfectionists to feel "good enough" or satisfied The vicious cycle: threat detection → anxiety → perfectionist behaviors → temporary relief → reinforced neural pathways The HOPE: How mindfulness, self-compassion, and exposure to imperfection can actually change your brain Why true recovery happens when you stop trying to do it perfectly and start doing it honestly A powerful devotional insight: "God won't bless who you pretend to be" The truth: Your worth isn't measured by impossible standards—it's measured by your courage to show up If you're tired of being tired, if you're exhausted from trying to be "perfect," if you feel stuck in the perfect paradox—this episode will give you both the science and the hope you need to break free. KEY QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE
What if you finally reach the peak of your career—only to have your body shut it down? Why are so many dentists forced to cancel clinics, not because of burnout or skill, but because of crippling back pain? And what if this “expected hazard of dentistry” didn't actually have to be inevitable? In this episode, Dr. Aniko Ball joins Jaz to challenge the long-held belief that chronic pain is just part of being a dentist. As an expert in dental ergonomics and the Alexander Technique, she reveals why so many clinicians are unknowingly damaging their bodies every single day—and how simple, overlooked changes can completely transform career longevity. The mission for this episode was simple: deliver five genuinely life-changing, immediately actionable tips to protect your neck, back, and future. No fluff. No theory for theory's sake. Just practical changes you can implement straight away—starting from your very next clinic session. If your health matters to you as much as your dentistry, this is an unmissable episode. https://youtu.be/u7hEOPpEsGA Watch PDP27 on Youtube Protrusive Dental Pearl: Cut toxic noise, protect time for your health, and optimize the small habits you repeat daily. You only rotate ~10–13 meals—upgrade those, move a little more, sleep a little better. Small, consistent upgrades compound into an unrecognisable year. Key Takeaways: Back pain in dentistry is not inevitable—it is largely the result of cumulative postural habits. Most dental pain comes from holding positions the body was never designed to hold, not from single traumatic events. Lifting the elbow or shoulder for prolonged periods activates movement muscles, guaranteeing shoulder and upper back pain. A finger rest must be used on the non-dominant hand holding the mirror, not just the dominant hand. Hovering the mirror is equivalent to holding the arm raised against gravity. The spine is not designed for sustained bending or twisting, even slightly. Staying vertical is critical—move the patient and the chair, not your spine. Traditional loupes often force neck flexion; refractive loupes or microscopes allow upright posture and straight-ahead vision. Stool height matters: hips slightly higher than knees, feet flat, heels fully released into the floor. If leg weight isn't given to the floor, the lower back absorbs the load instead. Habits outside the clinic—especially looking down at a mobile phone—train the same harmful postural patterns used in dentistry. Postural change feels strange at first because bad habits feel comfortable, even when they are damaging. Real change requires habit interruption, repetition, and support over several weeks. Your body is your most important instrument—protecting it protects your career.

Waking up in the middle of the night to pee is not normal, even if it only happens once. This episode reveals why nighttime urination is an early metabolic warning sign, not a bladder or prostate issue. Ben explains how insulin resistance, blood sugar spikes, cortisol, and disrupted hormones interfere with deep sleep, fat burning, and brain detoxification. When sleep is interrupted, belly fat increases, hormones fall out of balance, and the brain's nighttime cleaning process shuts down. You'll learn the five main metabolic causes behind nighttime urination, including late-night eating, alcohol, electrolyte imbalance, high cortisol, and fluid shifts in the body. Ben also shares simple changes you can start tonight to sleep through the night again. This episode breaks down why most doctors miss this signal, how insulin resistance can exist years before diabetes, and how fixing metabolic signals can restore sleep, energy, fat loss, and long-term health. If you're waking up to pee, feeling wired but tired, or struggling with stubborn belly fat, this episode could change everything.

Coffee can be one of the healthiest drinks in the world or one of the most damaging, depending on how and when you drink it. In this episode, Ben breaks down 7 hidden coffee dangers that silently disrupt your gut, liver, hormones, sleep, and fat-burning ability, plus simple fixes to make coffee work for your metabolism instead of against it. What You'll Learn: Why drinking coffee on an empty stomach can spike cortisol and slow fat loss How artificial creamers, seed oils, and sweeteners damage gut bacteria and overload the liver The overlooked danger of mold toxins (mycotoxins) in most coffee beans Why pesticides like glyphosate in coffee can worsen leaky gut and insulin resistance How drinking coffee too early disrupts circadian rhythm and causes energy crashes Why afternoon coffee (even decaf) sabotages deep and REM sleep How to choose clean, mold-free, organic coffee for better energy and metabolic health Key Takeaway: Coffee isn't the problem. Dirty coffee habits are.With the right timing, ingredients, and sourcing, coffee can be anti-inflammatory, liver supportive, and fat-burning.
We've been covering what's happening in Minnesota, and the killing of Alex Pretti, all week on The Verge. To begin this episode, Nilay explains why — and why so many others seem to feel the same way right now. After that, the hosts talk about the CEO-studded screening of Melania Trump's documentary last weekend, the disastrous public appearance from Tim Cook, and whether Cook and other CEOs have any other option but to capitulate to the Trump administration. Then it's time for some gadgets: we talk about the super-foldy, super-expensive Samsung Galaxy Z Trifold, the Clawdbot / Moltbot phenomenon, and whether Google can finally put Chrome OS and Android together the right way. Finally, in the lightning round, it's time for Brendan Carr is a dummy, Tesla's anti-car pivot, Apple's design hires, and more.

In this episode, Ben Azadi reveals the one daily habit he unknowingly practiced for over 20 years that slowly damaged his health without obvious symptoms: chronic low-grade inflammation. Ben explains why inflammation is often missed by conventional medicine, how it silently disrupts metabolism, hormones, gut health, and fat loss, and why “normal” lab results do not equal optimal health. He breaks down the five biggest mistakes that fueled inflammation, including relying on supplements instead of real food, falling for detox and juice cleanses, constant snacking on “healthy” foods, long-term nutrient deficiencies from strict plant-based eating, and cooking with inflammatory seed oils. Ben shares the simple framework that helped him reverse inflammation and restore metabolic health, called the One Plate Reset. This approach focuses on high-quality protein, stable fats, reduced insulin stimulation, clear eating windows, and eliminating snacking. The episode also addresses common questions around carbs, fasting, genetics, aging, vegetable oils, and blood sugar, while emphasizing that healing begins when inflammatory signals are removed. Ben closes by outlining his 14-day belly fat burning plan and reinforcing the core message from his book Metabolic Freedom: the body is designed to heal when interference is removed.
