What if cancer isn't just a disease… but a split personality inside your own body? In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Michael Levin (Professor of Biology at Tufts University, Director of the Allen Discovery Center) drops paradigm-shattering insights that could redefine medicine, consciousness, intelligence...and what it even means to be human. He explains why he calls cancer “dissociative identity disorder of the body” — a breakdown in the body's bioelectrical network — and how this could open the door to treating cancer without drugs or chemotherapy, why “mind blindness” prevents us from recognizing nonhuman intelligence, and how “human” might be defined in a future of tech implants and biological augmentation. Dr. Levin also breaks down: - What does a body think about before there is a brain? - Can we regrow limbs in our lifetime? - Are we closer than we think to communicating with our organs via an app? - What flatworms reveal about how trauma and memory are imprinted in tissue, and whether we might one day overwrite trauma itself - What nonhuman intelligence could actually look like - How you might play tic-tac-toe with an alien - Real dangers of anthropomorphizing AI Dr. Levin also tackles some of humanity's biggest existential questions: - Are we defining consciousness all wrong? - How can ancient traditions and modern biophysics coexist? - Why compassion may be the most advanced technology we have From developmental biophysics to computer science to cognitive science, this conversation explores how intelligence may be woven into life itself — from cells to organs to entire bodies. If what he's saying is right… Medicine will change. AI debates will change. And our understanding of ourselves will change. You will never look at your body the same way again!

Nutrition advice is everywhere, but much of it isn't designed for people who train. Diet trends often focus on quick weight loss or restrictive rules, leaving many people stuck in a cycle of starting and stopping new plans that never seem to last. In this episode of Beast Over Burden, Niki Sims and Andrew Jackson introduce a new series focused on nutrition for lifters. Rather than discussing generic diet advice, the series explores how nutrition actually works for people who are strength training and trying to build sustainable habits. Throughout the upcoming episodes, listeners will hear conversations with Barbell Logic coaches, the Director of Nutrition, and several clients who share their real experiences navigating food, dieting, and body composition while training. Many of these guests have spent years experimenting with different diet strategies before discovering a more sustainable approach. The discussion explores why so many people feel like they have been dieting their entire lives, how strength training changes the way we think about food, and why paying attention to how different foods affect energy, recovery, and daily life can lead to a healthier relationship with nutrition. If you've ever felt stuck in the dieting cycle or wondered how to build better nutrition habits while continuing to train, this series offers practical insights and real stories about what nutrition for lifters can look like in everyday life.

In this episode, Greg and Nathan are joined by Billy Hutchinson, Director of Colson Educators for Christian Worldview, to explore the deeper crisis facing modern education, the erosion of truth itself. As students are increasingly given conflicting answers to life's biggest questions, confusion and despair often follow. Billy helps unpack why worldview formation is essential for lifelong learners, and why this cultural moment represents both a serious challenge and a powerful opportunity for Christians. Together they discuss the difference between secular hope and the firm hope found in the historical resurrection of Christ, and how truth provides stability in a chaotic culture. Through stories of courageous faith from Truth Rising, including individuals who chose conviction over compromise, they show how courage grows from deeply rooted truth. The conversation also highlights practical tools and resources from the Colson Center that equip parents, teachers, and everyday believers to become lifelong learners—and agents of restoration in today's world.
Have we made the manager's role more complex without making it easier to make good decisions? Over the past decade, expectations on managers have grown significantly. They're expected to make decisions that are fair, data-informed, and financially responsible - often in real time and under increasing scrutiny. Yet in many organisations, the systems designed to support those decisions haven't evolved at the same pace. So, in this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, host David Green speaks with Kenneth Matos, Director of Market Insights at HiBob, to explore what it takes to design better decision environments for modern organisations. Drawing on new global research involving 4,700 people managers, Ken shares why the time spent stitching together data and the lack of a unified HR–Finance view are undermining decision quality - and what leaders must do to enable managers to balance people fairness with financial discipline. Tune in to learn more about: Why decision friction is emerging as a hidden barrier to organisational agility How fragmented data undermines fairness, consistency, and trust in people decisions What changes when HR and Finance operate from a shared contextWhy defensibility is becoming critical in an era of pay transparency and scrutinyHow AI can reduce decision friction when implemented with the right guardrailsWhy designing better decision environments is becoming a core leadership priority This episode is sponsored by Hibob. HiBob brings HR, Payroll, and Finance together into a single platform that employees actually use. With AI throughout, you move faster, work smarter, and empower your people to power your business.

Are you successful on paper but restless underneath? Have you reached midlife (40, 50, or in your 60's) and your realized something feels slightly "off." Not broken. Not dramatic. Just…stuck. What if the restlessness you're feeling right now isn't a problem… but a signal that your next chapter is calling? This week's episode of the IMPACT SHOW Podcast is POWERFUL and DEEP. I sit down with a dear friend of mine, Bobby Kelly. I've known Bobby for over 20 years, and let me tell you—this guy is one of the most passionate, authentic, and no-nonsense coaches I know. Bobby has spent more than three decades helping people transform their lives—physically and mentally—and now he's on a mission to help people reinvent themselves and step boldly into their next chapter. Bobby just released a powerful new book called "The Next Chapter Starts Now—A Playbook for Reinvention, Renewal, & Real Life Progress" and in this conversation he shares the real framework he's used to help high performers navigate major life transitions. This isn't just another motivational pep talk. It's about building structure, asking the hard questions, and creating the clarity needed to move forward when life feels stuck or misaligned. If you've ever found yourself asking, "Is this it?" or "What's next for me?" or "How do I change direction without blowing up my life?"—this episode is for you. Bobby drops some serious wisdom and practical tools that will help you rethink where you are and start designing where you want to go next. In this episode, we talk about: • Why motivation is a terrible long-term strategy and what actually creates lasting change. • The difference between being successful vs. truly aligned in your life and career. • How to know when you're experiencing burnout… or simply outgrowing your environment. • Why that feeling of restlessness might actually be a signal that growth is calling. • The power of asking the right questions to create clarity and momentum. • Why your environment and the people around you play a huge role in the next level of your life. • Bobby's incredible story about how his coaching style even helped President George W. Bush run one of his fastest treadmill 5Ks. • The importance of structure, discipline, and micro-wins when creating your next chapter. • Real-life stories of people who have made powerful life pivots at 40, 50, 60 and beyond. My friends, here's the truth: your next chapter isn't something that magically appears one day. It's something you decide to step into. If something inside you has been nudging you lately… if you feel that pull that there's more for your life, your purpose, and your impact—this conversation is going to light a fire in you. Take a listen, soak up the wisdom Bobby shares, and start asking yourself the big question: What does my next chapter look like?

Eric and Eliot welcome Norman Roule, a non-resident senior adviser at the Center for Strategic and International Studies and a thirty-four-year career veteran of the U.S. intelligence community, where he served in the Directorate of Operations as a division chief and chief of station, and for nearly a decade as the national intelligence manager for Iran in the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI). They discuss Trump's effort to replicate his Venezuela playbook and the search for an Iranian Delcy Rodríguez, the intricacies of the Iranian succession, and the potential for the regular army (ARTESH) to step in and seize leadership of the country. The conversation also covers the IRGC's hold on the system in Iran, the sources of Iran's misreading of the regional situation and of Donald Trump, the failure of Iran's alliances to come to the rescue, and the nature of Iran as an intelligence target.Eliot's Latest in The Atlantic (Gift Link):https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/03/trump-iran-war-confusion/686259/?gift=KGDC3VdV8jaCufvP3bRsPq02AwLxoJbONMjAocns7uo&utm_source=copy-link&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=shareShield of the Republic is a Bulwark podcast co-sponsored by the Miller Center of Public Affairs at the University of Virginia.
There’s a course being taught at the University of Oregon that’s unlike any class offered there before — and possibly the first of its kind in the nation, according to UO. Now in its second year, the course on hostage diplomacy is attracting undergraduates interested in pursuing careers in journalism, public relations and advertising. The students hear from guest speakers, including family members of current and former hostages and experts who’ve helped negotiate the release of hostages and journalists who have been wrongfully detained by foreign governments. In the spring, students travel to Washington, D.C. to meet with Congressional staffers, U.S. State Department officials and NGOs like The James W. Foley Legacy Foundation and HostageUS. The course is being co-taught by Jason Rezaian, the 2026 Eric W. Allen Faculty Fellow at UO and The Washington Post’s Director of Press Freedom Initiatives. While reporting in Tehran for The Washington Post, Rezaian was arrested by Iranian authorities in 2014 and wrongfully imprisoned for 544 days before the U.S. government secured his release in January 2016. Rezaian joins us, along with three UO students who share their experiences with the course: Maren Fullerton, a senior double majoring in advertising and political science; Taylor Parker, a sophomore double majoring in advertising and cinema studies; and Aishiki Nag, a senior double majoring in political science and global studies.
In this episode of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman sits down with his longtime friend and fellow Spartan, Dr. Lorenzo Guess—Assistant AD, Director of Athletic Performance at Michigan State, and Director of Strength & Conditioning for men's basketball. From being a two-sport athlete at Michigan State to helping lead championship-level programs as a coach, Dr. Guess shares the fire that has driven him to keep growing, keep serving, and keep showing up at the highest level. Raised in a single-parent home, his burn was built from a desire to create a better life, honor his family, and do things no one around him had done before. That same drive carried him through adversity, including rewriting his dissertation during COVID and earning his doctorate because his daughter challenged him to finish what he started.Ben and Dr. Guess dive into what it means to coach beyond the game—developing not just better athletes, but stronger, more disciplined young men who are ready for life after college. They talk about the culture of Michigan State basketball, the standards set by Tom Izzo, and why talent alone is never enough. Dr. Guess explains how true development comes from accountability, detail, consistency, and refusing to let anything slip through the cracks—even with the most gifted players. This conversation is about legacy, family, discipline, and the responsibility to become an example for those watching. If you want to understand what it looks like to lead with energy, serve with purpose, and stay committed to growth long after success arrives, this episode is for YOU.************************************Connect with Dr. Lorenzo Guess: Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-lorenzo-guess-mba-mscc-cscs-ab61a016/Book: https://a.co/d/0gyuyKqY************************************Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/kqsszfeZ9FEListen on all platforms: https://www.theburnpodcast.com************************************Learn about upcoming events and coaching: https://www.workwithbnc.comGet Ben's latest book The STANDARD: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1stWork directly with Ben: https://www.bennewmancoaching.comConnect with Ben Newman:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693Qlogix: www.Q-logix.com/benhttps://www.bennewmancoaching.com************************************ Learn about our Upcoming events and programs:https://www.workwithbnc.comLet's work TOGETHER https://www.bennewmancoaching.comLet's work together to write YOUR next book- BNC PublishingSend us a message Order my latest book The STANDARD: Winning at YOUR Highest Level: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1st Phorm | The Foundation of High Performance Nutrition1stPhorm.com/bnewman Connect with me everywhere else: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfight Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFight Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693

She witnessed countless friends lose their lives to AIDS, and the lessons she learned in closeness have stayed with her.As a young woman, Lisa Petty was visiting her aunt in a retirement home when she started to speak to the older people there about the role of wartime dance halls in their lives.These were stories of luminous intimacy. The old men and women's faces would light up as they remembered being close enough to attractive strangers to smell them, to move together with music, and to have a few hours reprieve from the stress of war.These stories inspired Lisa's masters studies and she moved to New York to pursue a career in dance.There, she found a friend soulmate in a man called Raymond, and they lived together for several years, before and after he became sick with AIDS.After Lisa returned to Melbourne, she left her dance career behind and began working as an intimacy and movement director, helping performers to channel their character's energy and translate that into the language of touch.Further informationThis episode was produced by Alice Moldovan.

Today is the day before our Spring SHARE begins, and we spent time praising God's power in our lives. We asked callers, "What reminds you of what you've been saved from?" One of our guests included Jed Coppenger. He is the lead pastor of First Baptist Church in Cumming, Georgia. He is also a speaker and author. We highlighted his book, "Fake Christianity: 10 Traps of an Inauthentic Faith", as we discussed the influence of counterfeit gospels in our culture. Then, we had Dr. Andy Bannister join us to discuss how to know the absolute Truth and share that Truth with someone in a loving and gentle way when there are opposing ideas. Dr. Bannister is the Director of Solas, and he speaks and teaches regularly throughout the UK, Europe, Canada, the USA, and the wider world. He addresses audiences of Christians and people of all faiths, or none, on issues related to faith, culture, politics, and society. He also hosts 2 podcasts called PEP Talk and Pod of the Gaps. He also wrote several books, including “Have you Ever Wondred?" Finally, we invited Dr. Hormoz Shariat back for more updates on the situation in Iran. Dr. Shariat is the Founder and President of Iran Alive Ministries (IAM), which uses satellite broadcasting and the internet to reach Iranians with the gospel. Dr. Shariat has been named “the Billy Graham of Iran” and “the most influential Iranian American” by Christianity Today.Donate to Moody Radio: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/morningshowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Emanuel Bistrian, Executive Director of Generosity Path, grew up in a small Romanian village under communism, one of twelve children in a faithful Christian family. After immigrating to Chicago with almost nothing, he watched his mother give generously even in scarcity. That witness shaped his ambition, not simply to succeed, but to live on purpose. Over time, as he built businesses in the United States and Romania, God reshaped his view of wealth from something to secure into something to steward with open hands. In this conversation, Emanuel shares how he and his wife chose to give from revenue rather than profit, trusting God through the global financial crisis and seasons of real risk. He describes how local generosity is transforming churches in places like Ethiopia and South Sudan, restoring dignity and fueling gospel work from within communities rather than depending on the West. Through Generosity Path, he now helps leaders around the world discover generosity as surrender, community, and mission. Listen to explore how courageous generosity can restore dignity and strengthen faith in every season. Major Topics Include: Generosity as surrender, not strategy Giving from revenue, not just profit Trusting God through financial risk Integrating faith and entrepreneurship Building generosity into business systems Community as catalyst for generous living Restoring dignity through local generosity Shifting from Western dependence to local ownership QUOTES TO REMEMBER “I realized that God wasn't poor in Romania. We as His people needed to learn generosity.” “If we didn't do something that extreme, we would never give.” “We didn't want to wait to tally up the profits to see if we were profitable enough to give.” “I would rather risk too much than too little when it comes to generosity.” “It's never a thing of how much you have. God can multiply the fish and the loaves.” “We all have everything we need to accomplish what God has called us to.” “Generosity in community is the next logical thing. Why wouldn't you want to give with others?” “Business people can be quite lonely, but community brings the joy back.” “Generosity restores dignity.” “When the Holy Spirit downloads His heart into yours, transformation takes place.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW Generosity Path Generous Giving (see our interviews with cofounders Todd Harper and David Wills and CEO, April Chapman) Journey to Generosity (JoG) with Generous Giving Praxis (see our interview with Cofounder Josh Kwan) MacLellan Foundation (see our interview with Director of Generosity, John Cortines) Handful of Rice video Bishop Hannington video TAKE A STEP DEEPER On the Finish Line podcast, we are all about stories, seeing how God draws us into generosity over a lifetime. But sometimes these stories can leave us thinking, “What's that next step look like for me?” That's exactly why we've launched a whole new podcast called Applied Generosity which explores the full landscape of the generous life across 7 different dimensions of generosity. Applied Generosity helps make sense of the hundreds of stories we've shared on the Finish Line Podcast to help you find that best next step. If you've been inspired by these stories and want to take things to the next level, check out Applied Generosity anywhere you listen to podcasts or at appliedgenerosity.com.

About the Show:"We are all one life-changing event away from having to navigate or make decisions in a landscape we never thought we would find ourselves in." – Cherie ClarkIn this heartfelt episode of I Am Northwest Arkansas®, host Randy Wilburn sits down with Cherie Clark, Director of External Relations at Purview Life NWA, for a deeply personal conversation about aging life care management and what it really means to support families through some of life's most challenging seasons.Cherie's path to this work didn't start in a boardroom — it started at a bedside. Her own experience as a family caregiver led her to Purview Life, a company she describes as a "general contractor for health care." They organize resources, connect families with the right support, and when necessary, step in as medical POA or guardian. It's hands-on, heart-forward work — and her passion for it comes through in every story she tells.From practical advice on vetting care providers and understanding costs to real-life success stories and guidance for families planning ahead, this episode delivers something rare: genuine hope alongside actionable insight. Whether you're a local caregiver in Northwest Arkansas, supporting aging parents from across the country, or simply starting to ask "What's next" — Cherie's message is clear: you don't have to figure this out alone.Key Takeaways:Aging Life Care Management: Purview Life serves as a life-centric, holistic care manager for seniors and adults with special needs, supporting individuals and their families through every stage.Support for Caregivers: Whether you're a spouse, child, or neighbor, Purview Life offers help to prevent caregiver burnout, mediate tough decisions, and provide crisis relief.Local Expertise, National Network: Purview Life's care managers are deeply knowledgeable about Northwest Arkansas resources and are connected nationwide through the Aging Life Care Association (ALCA).Flexible and Transparent: Services range from one-time consultations to ongoing support, and billing is clear (in six-minute increments, with detailed invoices).Planning Brings Peace: Even tough conversations about aging and care make things smoother later—proactive education and planning help avoid crisis-driven decisions.How to Vet Providers: Look for credentials, connections to organizations like ALCA, and a focus on client needs, not kickbacks. Always ask questions and make sure your chosen provider gives you options.Help Wherever You Are: Purview Life can support families locally or connect you to qualified care managers anywhere in the U.S.All this and more on this episode of the I Am Northwest Arkansas® podcast.Important Links and Mentions on the Show*Website: Purview Life NWAPhone: 479-579-8723 (call or text to connect with Cherie Clark and her team)Cherie Clark on LinkedInAging Life Care Association (ALCA): aginglifecare.orgPurview Life Testimonial Videos: Available on their websiteThis episode is sponsored by*FindItNWA.comTry ONBoardNWA.com Today!*Note: some of the resources mentioned may be affiliate links.

How do you create a sustainability program when there's no roadmap, limited resources, and teams that need convincing? On this episode of Power Supply, we're joined by Chris Sanchez, Director of Sustainability and Resilience at Baptist Health South Florida, to explore how healthcare organizations can turn environmental goals into practical, measurable action. Chris shares how he built a sustainability strategy from scratch—from identifying core metrics like greenhouse gas emissions to collaborating across supply chain, facilities, and clinical teams—and breaks down where hospitals have the biggest environmental impact, from energy use and anesthetic gases to everyday purchasing decisions. Whether you're leading sustainability efforts or wondering where to start, this conversation shows you how to make healthcare supply chains smarter and greener without compromising care or budgets.

Interview with Brian Miller, Director & CEO of Astra ExplorationOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/astra-exploration-tsxvastr-high-grade-argentine-discovery-opens-in-multiple-dimensions-9016Recording date: 5th March 2026Astra Exploration (TSXV: ASTR) is a junior precious metals company with a focused two-country portfolio in Chile and Argentina, and a clear near-term strategy centred on its La Manchuria gold-silver project in Santa Cruz province. Following a strong PDAC 2026, the company is well positioned heading into what could be a transformational period of exploration.La Manchuria is a low sulphidation epithermal system with a dual-target structure. Near surface, the company has confirmed an expanding bulk disseminated gold-silver system — one that has grown with every drill programme conducted to date. Deeper in the system lies the primary prize: a potential high-grade feeder zone, the kind of structure that drives the most significant epithermal discoveries in Patagonia. Astra has been methodically building toward testing that target, beginning with near-surface drilling to establish scale and validate the geological model before committing capital to deeper holes.Two programmes have now been completed, totalling 7,500 metres across 36 holes. Of the 25 holes drilled in the second programme, 13 have been released with results. Twelve remain pending from the laboratory and are expected to be published by the end of March 2026. These represent a near-term, defined news pipeline that does not require the company to raise capital or commence new fieldwork to deliver.The third programme — another 5,000 metres — is set to begin within approximately one month. Astra holds roughly $4 million in cash, sufficient to fund this programme in full. The budget was structured at the time of the company's $6.2 million raise to ensure exactly this kind of operational continuity. The third programme will begin to shift focus toward deeper targets, moving the company closer to the high-grade feeder discovery scenario that underpins its long-term investment case.Argentina's operating environment has also improved significantly. Under President Milei's administration, permitting has accelerated and foreign investment capital is flowing into the country at a pace not seen in recent years. Santa Cruz province permits year-round drilling, removing the seasonal constraints that limit many other jurisdictions and enabling a consistent cadence of results throughout 2026.Beyond Argentina, Astra holds two Chilean projects — Pampa Paciencia, adjacent to two operating copper mines, and a high sulphidation target in the active Maricunga belt — that provide strategic optionality without requiring meaningful near-term capital. Pre-drill work is planned at Cerobio in Chile in the coming weeks, with the potential to unlock value through partnership or joint venture as the belt attracts renewed attention following Chile's improved political backdrop.For investors, the proposition is straightforward: a funded explorer with an expanding near-surface discovery, a high-grade feeder thesis yet to be tested at depth, a defined catalyst schedule across the next 60 to 90 days, and a macro tailwind from both gold prices and an improving Argentine investment climate. Astra enters the next phase of its programme with momentum, capital, and a story that is only beginning to register with the wider market.View Astra Exploration's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/astra-explorationSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In this episode, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores Parshas Ki Tisa, focusing on the profound lessons from the half-Shekel census at the beginning and the dangers of the Golden Calf sin that follows. He explains why a direct headcount is forbidden (leading to plague) and instead the half-shekel donation is counted: it preserves individuality (each person is unique and irreplaceable) while emphasizing communal unity—counting coins unites people as one collective, avoiding isolated judgment. The half-shekel symbolizes incompleteness alone; only when combined with others does one become "whole," reflecting the Jewish ideal of being part of a kehillah (congregation) rather than isolated.Rabbi Wolbe stresses the power of community: prayers in plural (e.g., "heal us," "bless us"), synagogues as Batei Knesset (places of gathering) for collective strength, and the peril of separation (e.g., avoiding one's local shul is spiritually damaging). He connects this to Rosh Hashanah/Yom Kippur judgment—being part of the tzibbur (public) brings mercy, as group requests are harder to deny. The episode warns against modern isolation (e.g., influencers becoming detached) and draws parallels to antisemitism: Jews must never hide identity but stand proud and united, as in Egypt where preserving names, language, and customs brought salvation. Unity makes us unbreakable—like bundled straws—while isolation invites downfall, especially when comfort leads to complacency (as with Haman or the Golden Calf)._____________This episode of the Parsha Review Podcast is dedicated in honor of Lenny & Teresa FriedmanDownload & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on March 6, 2026, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on March 8, 2026_____________Subscribe: Apple Podcasts (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/parsha-review-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1651930083)Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/22lv1kXJob5ZNLaAl6CHTQ) to stay inspired!
