It's Casual Friday my friends, and boy do we have a lot to celebrate. Elon Musk and Donald Trump are having an ugly public break up and we are here for it. Bit what does all this mean for Trump's Big Beautiful Bill? Heather "Digby" Parton is here to help us break it all down. Check out Digby's column at Salon: https://www.salon.com/writer/heather_digby_parton As well as her blog Digby's Hullabaloo: https://digbysblog.net/ In the Fun Half, Republican Senator James Lankford says that that the Big Beautiful Bill will move millions of people from Medicare to employee-funded health care. Hmm, we weren't aware that this huge tax cut for rich people that guts the social safety net is also a job creator. It's a head scratcher. After that, Donald Trump seems to suggest that the Nazis are still in power in Germany. He tells the German chancellor that D-Day must be a bad day for Germany, because, you know, it was huge turning point in the defeat of Hitler's dictatorship. And a former denouncer of Andrew Cuomo who is also running against him in the NYC mayor's race has had a change of heart and is now endorsing him. Don't rank Jessica Ramos NYC folks! And James Carville has a strange  bit of commentary on Jewish donors to political campaigns.

Symptoms of hormonal imbalance and a slow metabolism. The top reasons for stubborn weight, and how to address it. How gut problems coincide with other health issues. Louise believes there's a whole lot more to weight loss than just what you eat and how you exercise.

If you're navigating midlife and feeling like your body has started working against you—despite clean eating and consistent workouts—this episode is your wake-up call. Angela is joined by functional nutritionist Louise Digby to explore the lesser-known culprits behind stubborn weight, fatigue, and hormonal havoc in perimenopause. Forget willpower. This conversation reframes weight loss resistance through the lens of gut health, toxic load, and nutrient insufficiencies. From brittle nails and dry skin to unexpected acne flare-ups, Louise uncovers the hidden metabolic and hormonal messages your body is sending—and how to respond with science, not shame. KEY TAKEAWAYS Gut Health Trumps Willpower: Many women have gut imbalances without symptoms—but these silent issues can stall fat loss and disrupt hormones. Toxic Load Sabotages Hormones: Environmental toxins from skincare, pollutants, and food can overwhelm your liver and impair hormone detox pathways. Nutrient Insufficiencies Are Common: Even with a healthy diet, modern stress and poor soil deplete key nutrients like magnesium, B vitamins, and vitamin D. Metabolic Clues You’re Missing: Cold hands, brittle nails, poor recovery, and stubborn weight can all signal compromised metabolic health—not laziness. Histamine Intolerance in Perimenopause: Symptoms like rosacea, joint pain, and sinus issues may be worsened by declining histamine tolerance and poor gut health. One Size Doesn’t Fit All: Every woman’s root cause is different—testing and personalised nutrition are key to reclaiming energy and vitality. TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS 0:00 – Introduction 1:05 – Silent gut issues and how they sabotage fat loss 2:21 – Toxic load: from skincare to hormonal disruption 3:52 – Why good diets still result in nutrient insufficiencies 5:03 – Clues your metabolism is slowing down 6:48 – Top nutrient gaps: B vitamins, magnesium, vitamin D 9:36 – The hair loss and iron connection in perimenopause 12:14 – Why adult acne and rosacea emerge in perimenopause 13:09 – Histamine intolerance, joint pain, and the gut-skin link VALUABLE RESOURCES Get a free snapshot of your health and personalised report at www.yourtotalhealthcheck.com Join The High Performance Health Community A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible: Sign up to my Fresh Start Newsletter: Start your week feeling in control with one simple, science-backed step for your hormones, health and longevity—get your free weekly fresh start at angelafoster.me/freshstart ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.

It's a Sam-solo casual Friday and Digby is here to wrap up the week that was. Sam takes in the Fox News discussion about the pope, which acknowledges that Jesus would be on the side of migrants if he was alive today, but also wonders whether he'd be as political as some of the leaders of the Catholic church have been. Then Sam and Digby marvel at JD Vance's ominous addendum to Donald Trump's tariffs agenda, mainly that American parents should be worried that if their children have to go off to fight in a war they should have American-made guns. They also discuss the Trump administration's cruel crack down on immigrants and their communities. Check out Digby's writing at Salon and on her blog: https://digbysblog.net/ After that, we hear from David Feldman who's upset about ICE, not for the reasons you might imagine. It's...interesting. After that, Sam decides to grant us a Freebie Friday, so get your kicks in while you can. We talk Tim Pool and his new academic definition of war, which basically includes any and everything so he can justify the Trump administration taking extra-constitutional actions to crack down on people it doesn't like. They also take in Biden's appearance on The View, where he tries to make the case that he wasn't experiencing mental decline while in office by trailing off and having Jill Biden speak on his behalf while he hangs his head in silence. It's really quite sad. After that, we hear from a trans member of the military who's devastated that his losing his career and perhaps his pension and other benefits as a result of the Supreme Court's ruling that allows the DoD to purge the military of trans people. A caller from Massachusetts mentioned these resources for people concerned about ICE's activities in the state: Luce Massachusetts: https://www.instagram.com/luce_hotline/ Blog WorcesterSucks: https://www.worcestersucks.email/ And here's the info about the protest Sam mentioned in support of Palestine in Brooklyn on Saturday: https://www.instagram.com/palawda/?hl=en Become a member at JoinTheMajorityReport.com: https://fans.fm/majority/join Follow us on TikTok here!: https://www.tiktok.com/@majorityreportfm Check us out on Twitch here!: https://www.twitch.tv/themajorityreport Find our Rumble stream here!: https://rumble.com/user/majorityreport Check out our alt YouTube channel here!: https://www.youtube.com/majorityreportlive Gift a Majority Report subscription here: https://fans.fm/majority/gift Subscribe to the ESVN YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/esvnshow Subscribe to the AMQuickie newsletter here: https://am-quickie.ghost.io/ Join the Majority Report Discord! https://majoritydiscord.com/ Get all your MR merch at our store: https://shop.majorityreportradio.com/ Get the free Majority Report App!: https://majority.fm/app Go to https://JustCoffee.coop and use coupon code majority to get 10% off your purchase!

After a good night's rest the crew set off towards the rumoured glittering spire with a couple of goblins, a worg, and a cart full of dreams (read: sleeping Digby).

Everything is FUBAR, and I'm not exaggerating. I constantly reiterate that it's almost impossible to keep up with all the shit that's hitting the fan. I should modify that to say that I personally cannot keep up with it all. But my friend Heather Parton, better known as Digby, does a great job of it with the help of Tom Sullivan, Spocko and Dennis Hartley at her wonderful Hullabaloo blog at DigbysBlog.net.We're midway through what is shaping up to be one of the worst weeks in an awful few months since this administration has been in power, so I thought today would be a great day for a meeting of the minds with Digby. I always feel a little better after talking with her. Hopefully you will too.

AKA There Is No Trump without Newt. In episode 888 of The Professional Left Podcast, hosts driftglass and Blue Gal dive into the political landscape of April 1st, 2025, where April Fools Day is effectively canceled at the Cornfield Resistance due to the real Fool occupying the Oval Office.The hosts examine how Republicans have weaponized language over decades, tracing the destructive path from Newt Gingrich's slash-and-burn politics through Rush Limbaugh's hate radio to Trump's presidency. They contrast this with Democrats' constant pressure to be "civil" and "bipartisan," recalling Senator Durbin's tearful apology for his anti-Gitmo torture comments while Republicans never apologize for anything.Also covered: Senator Cory Booker's filibuster against hate, the White House Correspondents' Association's capitulation by canceling comedian Amber Ruffin, Elon Musk's dangerous plan to replace the COBOL code running Social Security payments, and a news roundup featuring Trump's latest attacks on democracy—from Signal-gate to tariff impacts, DEI funding cuts, and threats to the Smithsonian.Don't miss this sharp, unapologetic analysis of why "talking to the other side" isn't viable when the other side has abandoned democratic principles entirely.More at proleftpod.com.Driftglass will be on The BradCast with Digby on 4/2/2025.   We are scheduled to be on The Bob Cesca show on 4/9/2025.Support the show at Patreon.com/proleftpod, or send a letter/contribution to The Professional Left PodcastPO Box 9133Springfield, IL 62791Support the show

It's Friday! Sam and Emma welcome Heather 'Digby' Parton back to the program for a look at another very busy week in news. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on HHS' mass firings, Dem lawmakers' demand for the release of the abducted Tufts student, Trump's tariffs, Trump's targeting of Smithsonian over “ideology”, the Senate GOP's love for overdraft fees, HUD's wage theft, Judge Boasberg's disciplining of the Trump Administration, the scrapping of Elise Stefanik's UN role, Elon Musk's attempt to buy out the Wisconsin Supreme Court election, and Trump's executive order to cancel union contracts, also touching on Schumer's absurd messaging campaign in the wake of his budget capitulation, and watching Elise Stefanik grapple with her scrapped promotion live. Digby then joins, as she, Sam, and Emma dive right into the genuine danger between the lines of absurdity in the Trump Administration's Signal scandal, from the clear sign that they're moving away from official (documented) channels to the executive role being played by psycho-White nationalist Stephen Miller. After expanding on the horrifying aesthetic role Donald Trump is playing in the administration, and the tightening of the inner circle in Trump 2.0, Parton reflects on the genuine shock over how quickly US institutions folded to the threat of fascism, from Columbia to corporations to major law firms, and tackles the deliberate nature of the Trump Administration's agenda of economic chaos, before wrapping up by touching on the few remaining levers of power Democrats have to push back against fascism. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch as the Trump Cabinet take various unique paths to avoid any questions about the ongoing Signal Scandal, Marco Rubio unpacks exactly why due process doesn't matter, and Josh Hawley goes insane over the right to disappear student activists. They also dive into some recent controversy on the left and why playing Dave Rubin's games with you Dave Rubin's prizes, and talk with Vitor from Framingham about political conversations with right-wingers, plus, your calls and IMs!

Happiness Solved with Sandee Sgarlata. In this episode, Sandee interviews Louise Digby. In this engaging conversation, Sandee Sgarlata and Louise Digby discuss the challenges women face during midlife, particularly around weight loss and hormonal changes. Louise, a registered nutritional therapist, shares insights on the importance of understanding caloric burn, the role of mitochondria in energy production, and the necessity of a balanced diet rich in nutrients. They also explore non-food factors affecting metabolism, the misconceptions surrounding moderation in diet, and the significance of building muscle for longevity. The discussion emphasizes a holistic approach to health and wellness for women navigating this transitional phase of life.Key Takeaways:Women in their 40s and 50s often struggle with weight despite efforts.Caloric burn estimates from apps can be misleading.Mitochondria play a crucial role in energy production.Building muscle is essential for overall health and longevity.Sleep and stress significantly impact metabolism and weight loss.Environmental toxins can disrupt hormonal balance.A balanced diet should focus on nutrient density, not just calorie counting.Moderation in diet varies for each individual and should be defined personally.Tracking food intake can be inaccurate and lead to misconceptions.Small, gradual changes are more sustainable than drastic overhauls.Guest Bio:Louise Digby is a registered nutritional therapist, women's weight loss expert and founder of The Nourish Method to Lasting Fat Loss. Her clients come to her after struggling to lose weight despite eating well and working hard to burn the fat. Louise transforms her client's health and well-being by identifying and addressing each individual's unique needs and imbalances, so that they can lose weight, optimize their health and rediscover their sparkle, without restrictive dieting or the need for superhuman willpower.Connect with Louise: Website: www.louisedigbynutrition.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/louisedigbynutrition/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LouiseDigbyNutrition/ Connect with Sandee: Website: www.sandeesgarlata.comPodcast: www.happinesssolved.comFacebook: www.facebook.com/coachsandeesgarlataTwitter: www.twitter.com/sandeesgarlataInstagram: www.instagram.com/coachsandeesgarlata

Happy Friday! Sam and Emma speak with Heather Digby Parton, contributing writer at Salon.com and proprietor of the blog Hullabaloo, to round up the week in news. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Trump's cuts to the Social Security Administration, Musk's attacks on NOAA, the devastating effect of Trump's gutting of USAID, FEMA's struggles, Bird Flu, the Pentagon's trans ban, Trump's tariffs, and MAGA confusion about Trump releasing an edited Epstein file, before expanding on the GOP's ongoing attacks on Medicaid and Social Security, highlighted by the obvious attempt to revamp the demonization of people who receive government benefits. Digby then joins, jumping right into the genuinely astonishing divide between federal and state-level Democrats' ability to function as an opposition party, with Democrats in New York, California, and the Midwest embarrassing national leadership when it comes to preparing (or caring) to fight the Trump administration. Parton, Sam, and Emma also reflect on the coalescing of Big Tech and the Heritage Foundation, dissect some of Elon Musk's deeper desires for collecting Americans' data, and assess the chokehold the Musk-Trump regime has on the rest of the Republican Party – from the threat of a primary to the active disregard of their voters' wishes. After touching once more on the impotence of national Democratic leadership (Hakeem Jeffries) in contrast with state-level leaders (Governor Walz), Digby and MR wrap up by diving deep into Trump's insane authoritarian confrontation with Ukraine President Zelenskyy during a live press conference today. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch Kaitlan Collins stump Mike Johnson with confusing questions about “budgets” and “resolutions,” and cringe as Piers Morgan goes out of his way to rain shimmering showers of praise on Elon Musk (while just happening to defend his own wealth along the way), plus, your IMs!

A huge part of surviving this assault on our nation from within is our ability to maintain our sanity. One lesson I've learned in the past five weeks is that some days are better than others. I look forward to those mornings when the usual pit in my stomach doesn't fully form and I'm able to make it through the day without dissolving into a trembling mess. So far, so good today. I like days like these because I'm more able to catch up on my reading and somehow digest the avalanche of surreal news that ,on a day when the stress, anxiety and depression take over, render me incapable of dealing with it. Sadly, those bad days still outnumber the good ones. But I know it's something I must keep working on because giving in to despair is not an option.On days like this, I like to find the good news. There was actually a bit of it from the Supreme Court, if you can believe it. The extreme court today actually sided with a man whose constitutional rights were violated by prosecutors who wouldn't correct false testimony at his trial. The extremes actually directed the Oklahoma courts to vacate his conviction. A huge step in the right, er, correct direction.I'm encouraged by watching videos of Senator Bernie Sanders who's embarked on a "Fight the Oligarchy" tour - going to Republican districts, encouraging citizens to stand up and demand their representatives stand up to the Trump/Musk regime and for the constitution...I'm thrilled that Heather "Digby" Parton is my guest today. I love talking with Digby any day, and read her blog (at digbysblog.net) every day. We'll talk about today's breaking news and how we continue to fight the oligarchy and save our future.

The Professional Left Podcast #874: Federal jobs and local economies are in chaos as Trump and Musk wreak havoc at USAID and beyond. Driftglass and Blue Gal break down how Republican propaganda keeps winning despite their awful job creation record, and why some Never Trumpers can't quit bashing Democrats. The hosts dig into research showing Dems are way better at creating jobs (shocking, right?), while Republicans excel at... lying about it. From Trump's whiplash-inducing tariff decisions to his sketchy State Department picks, and from NASA scrubbing diversity mentions to protests at USAID - it's been quite a week at the Cornfield Resistance.Links for this episode: Pew Research on jobs:  https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2025/01/07/what-the-data-says-about-federal-workers/Driftglass and Digby on the Bradcast 2/5/2025  https://bradblog.com/?p=15297Driftglass and Blue Gal on The Cliff Schecter Show https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Tb0TkDaY3M Episode artwork by BluegalSubscribe to the show wherever you get your podcasts or check out proleftpod.com for more info and ways to contribute.Recorded February 6, 2025.

Jane Digby (1807-1881) was an English aristocrat, who lived a life filled with adventure and scandal, mostly on her own terms. She had four husbands and many lovers, many of whom were royalty and nobility. Her divorce and infidelity shocked polite society and rendered her an outcast. In the deserts of Syria, she explored ancient ruins and fell in love with Bedouin life. She married Sheikh Medjuel el Mezrab, who remained her husband until death.

History classes can get a bad rap, and sometimes for good reason. When we were students, we couldn’t help wondering... where were all the ladies at? Why were so many incredible stories missing from the typical curriculum? Enter, Womanica. On this Wonder Media Network podcast we explore the lives of inspiring women in history you may not know about, but definitely should. Every weekday, listeners explore the trials, tragedies, and triumphs of groundbreaking women throughout history who have dramatically shaped the world around us. In each 5 minute episode, we’ll dive into the story behind one woman listeners may or may not know–but definitely should. These diverse women from across space and time are grouped into easily accessible and engaging monthly themes like Educators, Villains, Indigenous Storytellers, Activists, and many more. Womanica is hosted by WMN co-founder and award-winning journalist Jenny Kaplan. The bite-sized episodes pack painstakingly researched content into fun, entertaining, and addictive daily adventures. Womanica was created by Liz Kaplan and Jenny Kaplan, executive produced by Jenny Kaplan, and produced by Grace Lynch, Maddy Foley, Brittany Martinez, Edie Allard, Lindsey Kratochwill, Carmen Borca-Carrillo, Taylor Williamson, Sara Schleede, Paloma Moreno Jimenez, Luci Jones, Abbey Delk, Hannah Bottum, Adrien Behn, Alyia Yates, and Vanessa Handy.

First of all, to all of you who lasted through the entire series up to this concluding episode, I extend to you, my deepest appreciation. I hope you learned a few things about Singapore. Here it is, the final installment of the series. I worked on this particular episode during my Oct-Nov China-HK-Cambodia trip. I recorded this one in Phnom Penh at the home studio of Dr. Digby James Wren. Digby's a long-time CHP listener and I gave him a ring when I hit town. Fortunately, he was in PP and generously spent a couple of days with me showing me around the city. The series finishes off with the most recent history of Singapore, including the Goh Chok Tong and Lee Hsien Loong period from 1990-2024. Everything from the 1970s to the present day is also squeezed into Part 10. Many of you might remember some of these blasts from the past. I'll also look at Singapore-PRC relations and how things developed in recent decades. This final episode will be released on January 19, 2025. I recorded it at Digby Wren's studio in early November and it's been available on my Patreon and CHP Premium channels since then. And now finally, here it is. A special thanks to all Singaporeans and expats there who wrote to me over the past few months with your kind words. Special thanks to Dr. Digby James Wren for allowing me the use of his Phnom Penh Studio!

Happy Friday! Sam and Emma speak with Heather Digby Parton, contributing writer at Salon.com and proprietor of the blog Hullabaloo, to round up the week in news. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the Supreme Court's affirmation of the TikTok ban, Biden and Trump's following denunciations of said ban, Israel's ceasefire sabotage, Trump's cabinet nominees, medicare drug price negotiations, and Mike Johnson's enforcement of the Trump regime, before watching Bernie push Trump treasury pick Bessent on why he doesn't think working people deserve fair wages. Digby then joins, as she, Sam, and Emma dive right into the devastating wildfires continuing to ravage LA, and the right's immediate push to politicize the event for all of their culture war BS, targeting Newsome, Bass, and DEI, before shifting to the greater absurdity of blaming people for failing to deal with an issue (climate change) that you refuse even to acknowledge. Expanding on this latter element, Digby tackles how LA is already being set up for Big Tech disaster capitalists to swoop in, diving deep into the setup of Trump's uber-oligarchy, what Big Tech wants from the relationship, and what makes them distinct from both contemporary and historical oligarch comparisons, wrapping up the show by waxing on the horrors of a Polymarket populist future. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma take some highlights from the hearings for Trump's Administrative nominees, including Bessent's abject fear of taxing the wealthy, Russell Vought's attempt to shirk the “has repeatedly fantasized about terrorizing bureaucratic agents” accusations, and Hegseth's utter embarrassment in the face of Elizabeth Warren. They also unpack right-wing reactionaries' attempt to pin California's forest fires on those damn meth-smoking homeless people in urban Los Angeles, plus, your calls and IMs!

One of the best things about hosting this show five days a week is that I get to talk with some really wonderful guests. Heather "Digby" Parton is the OG progressive blogger, and continues at digbysblog.net and on Salon.com offering her brilliant take on the hand we've been dealt. As I've been looking forward to catching up with her, I've been reading about the intense Santa Ana winds that are fanning the flames of massive wild fires. I just checked my email to find that the winds have caused a power outage at Digby's home! Hopefully her power will return by showtime or that we can come up with another solution to get her on the air. It's always something!

PREVIEW: PAMELA CHURCHILL: Conversation with Sonia Purnell, author of "Kingmaker," regarding the spectacular life of Pamela Digby Churchill Harriman (1920-1997) -- and this episode from her disastrous marriage to Winston Churchill's only son, Randolph. More tonight. 1941 Winston Churchill and FDR

PREVIEW: WINSTON CHURCHILL: ED MURROW: Conversation with Sonia Purnell, author "Kingmaker," regarding how Pamela Digby Churchill, Winston Churchill's daughter-in-law, became a witting seductress of Ed Murrow and other VIP Americans in the cause to save Britain and defeat the Hitlerites. Much more to learn. 1944 Edward Murrow

It's Casual Friday! Sam and Emma speak with Heather Digby Parton, contributing writer at Salon.com and proprietor of the blog Hullabaloo, to round up the week in news. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the indefinite cancellation of Trump's hush money sentencing, Trump's cabinet of rapists and fraudsters, the MTG-Musk-Ramaswamy connection, the House's passage of the non-profit killer bill, Schumer's weak politics, the divide between US-Israel and the rest of the international order over the ICC's charges, Bolsonaro's criminal charges, and UAW action in Kentucky, before parsing a little deeper through the vastly different responses to the ICC's charges against Netanyahu, Gallant, and others, with an adamant defense of genocide from the Biden administration rebuked both internationally and domestically. Digby then joins, as she, Sam, and Emma first reflect on their gut reactions to Trump's second presidential victory, the distinctions between their responses to 2016 and 2024, and the particular feeling of defeat for the feminist movement as an anti-abortion candidate begins to name his overwhelmingly predatory cabinet. Shifting more toward the policy impact of a second Trump term, Digby dives into the major threat of a “competent” Trump administration, backed by four years of drafting the blueprint for Project 2025, and what to make of growing tensions between Trump and the Senate, be it over leadership or cabinet appointments, expanding on that latter element by assessing the major (and controversial) roles to be played by potential cabinet members Pete Hegseth and Russ Vought. The three of them also touch on the major backing Trump has in the financial power of Elon Musk, and the evolution of the GOP's clamor for power, before Sam and Emma wrap up the free half with some ancient (as in a mere 8 years ago) comments from RFK about one Donald Trump. And in the Fun Half: Emma dives deep into the impressive progressive representation coming out of Georgia, from the Senate to local politics, with some help from DSA Aaron from Atlanta, before briefly touching on the evolution of the Biden-Netanyahu relationship and what the future of a Trump-Netanyahu alliance will mean for the fight for a free Palestine. The MR Team also highlights Stavros Halkias' strong appearance with Theo Von, talks with Jake the Teacher about New York's conservative shift and the future of the governor's race, and unpacks the rampant bigotry of Nancy Mace and the right's desire to put queer people back in the closet, plus, your calls and IMs!
