The beauty industry has been putting ingredients in your lip products that they'd NEVER be allowed to put in your food — and nobody is talking about it.Laura DiGirolamo is a beauty attorney, industry insider, and founder of YOM Beauty, and she's blowing the whistle on one of the biggest blind spots in modern beauty. We're talking flavored balms, vanilla frosting lip masks, tinted glosses — products literally designed for your mouth, treated like they never enter your body at all. She breaks down what's actually in them, why the science is scarier than anyone wants to admit, and what industry insiders already know but won't say out loud.Thank you to our sponsors!TAYLOR DUKES WELLNESS: Use code "ALEXCLARK" for 10% off your purchaseZEBRA: Use code "ALEX" for 10% off any orderGEVITI: Check out their free tier planLOVEBIRD: Use code 'ALEX20' for 20% off your purchaseBRANCH BASICS: Use code "ALEX15" for 15% off Starter KitsQ FOR QUINN: Use code "ALEX" for 15% off your non-toxicOur Guest:Laura DiGirolamo, ESQLaura's Links:Yom Beauty WebsiteYom Beauty IGLaura's Personal IGLip Service Alliance IGFOLLOW ALEX:Instagram |⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ @realalexclark⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram |⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@cultureapothecary⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠X |⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ @yoalexrapz⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube |⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ @RealAlexClark⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify |⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Culture Apothecary with Alex Clark ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcast |⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Culture Apothecary with Alex Clark⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to ‘Culture Apothecary' on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

What if one of the most toxic products in your home isn't your cleaning spray, your cookware, or your water bottle… but the lip gloss sitting in your purse right now? In this eye-opening and deeply alarming conversation, Darin Olien sits down with clean beauty innovator, attorney, and consumer advocate Laura D'Alamo to expose what may be one of the biggest blind spots in modern health and beauty. After surviving triple-negative breast cancer and a near-fatal battle with COVID, Laura embarked on a two-year investigation into the cosmetic industry that uncovered a startling regulatory gap surrounding lip products, microplastics, toxic ingredients, and consumer safety. Together, they explore how lip products are regulated as external-use cosmetics despite being chronically ingested, why 80–90% of lip products may contain microplastics, how outdated regulations fail to reflect modern usage patterns, and why ingredients banned in food can still legally appear in products applied directly to the lips. They also discuss the launch of the Lip Service Alliance, the future of food-grade lip care, and how consumers can drive industry-wide change through awareness and purchasing decisions.     What You'll Learn Why lip products may represent a major overlooked toxic exposure pathway How cosmetics regulations differ from food and pharmaceutical regulations Why lip products are treated as external-use products despite being ingested The hidden role of microplastics in lip glosses, lipsticks, and lip balms Why flavored lip products may increase chronic ingestion How lip tissue differs biologically from normal skin The shocking absorption rates associated with oral mucosal tissue Why titanium dioxide is banned in European food but still used in lip products How outdated usage assumptions fail to reflect modern beauty habits Why the fastest-growing lip product market is girls ages 9–17 The mission behind the Lip Service Alliance How consumers can influence change through

Lip products are uniquely positioned at the intersection of ingestion, absorption, and chronic exposure, yet most regulatory systems still treat them as if they simply sit on the surface of the skin. Whether or not every concern raised in this conversation proves true over time, one thing is undeniable: consumers deserve better science, better transparency, and better products. And when enough people demand change, industries always find a way to evolve."

How to Raise VC Funding in India: Lessons from Stellaris

Founder Thesis

Alok Goyal of Stellaris Venture Partners, the $600M fund behind Mamaearth, Whatfix, and Axtria, breaks down 13 years of lessons that every founder pitching VCs needs to hear. Alok co-founded Stellaris Venture Partners after a 'Brownian motion' career: a failed startup, eighteen months unemployed after the 2001 NASDAQ crash, and a decade running SAP India before venture found him. Today, the $600M fund backs Mamaearth, Whatfix, and Axtria, with over half of all cheques written before a founder has a single line of code. In this conversation with host Akshay Datt on Founder Thesis, Goyal reveals three anti-patterns that catch every VC at some point: market size estimates are almost always wrong; over-indexing on the market over the founder kills returns; and fearing Google or SAP will crush a startup is rarely justified, because incumbents have too much baggage to move. With agentic AI replacing entire job functions and a new US-India trade deal opening corridors for Indian software, this masterclass on early stage investing in India arrives at exactly the right moment.

Are Republicans secretly fueling the border crisis while campaigning against it? Despite the campaign rhetoric, the GOP establishment has not changed one iota on illegal immigration. I expose the massive gulf between conservative voters and the RINO lawmakers selling out their states to corporate agriculture and cheap labor cartels. Special guest Idaho state Sen. Glenneda Zuiderveld (R) joins the show to share the shocking truth about what happens when you try to enforce the law in a deep-red state. She details how she was stripped of a committee assignment and how her family's business faced aggressive retaliation from GOP special interests simply for standing against illegal immigration.  In fact, red-state Republicans (outside of the Freedom Caucus) are this subversive on almost every other issue as well.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Mollie Hemingway's explosive new book reveals that liberal Supreme Court justices Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor slow-walked their Dobbs dissent while conservative justices faced assassination threats — and sources say they're doing it again right now with a Voting Rights Act ruling that could flip 14 congressional seats before the midterms. Larry calls out Chief Justice John Roberts directly for enabling the politicization of the court and letting the liberal wing run the clock on a decision that's already been made.

First up: a Skift deep dive exposes the brutal math crushing America's hotel owners. Hilton, Marriott, and Hyatt are posting record profits while the people who actually own the buildings are hemorrhaging cash — franchise fees, loyalty fees, F&B fees, spa fees, stack an OTA commission on top and owners could be handing over 40% of revenue before paying a single employee. The panel doesn't hold back. Edwin calls it a deadlock. Ben calls it a hostage situation. Scott says the cracks show up the moment growth slows — and right now, they're everywhere. Then: the man behind Six Senses is back. Bernard Baumgartner's new venture, Discover Collection, ditches OTAs entirely for a membership-based model with 32 villas in Oman and a bombshell incentive — travel advisors earn 12% commission on lifetime guest spend. It won't scale. That's the point. Wyndham makes a surprise appearance with a genuinely clever social campaign — a $20K Route 66 road trip giveaway pairing grandparents with grandkids, comp stays at Days Inn and Super 8, full content documentation required. The most valuable guest isn't the highest spender — it's the best storyteller. And Coachella? Ben drops a reality check. It didn't sell out in 2023. Random April weekends outperformed festival weekends at his Palm Springs hotel. Justin Bieber saved it this year. The takeaway: demand anchors are powerful, but they're lineup-dependent, not brand-dependent. This Week in Hospitality is presented to you by Journey.

The moment Debbie Wasserman Schultz tried to explain why Democrats oppose the SAVE Act, she accidentally handed Larry O'Connor the most damning clip of the year. Larry breaks down exactly what happened on the Senate floor as Majority Leader Thune prepares to bring the SAVE Act to a vote. Chris Murphy went on camera claiming that enforcing existing citizenship voting law is Donald Trump "rigging the election" — and Larry dismantles that argument piece by piece, starting with the fact that the citizenship requirement isn't even in the SAVE Act. It's already in the Constitution. What the bill does is enforce it, something Democrats are now prepared to filibuster indefinitely. Then Debbie Wasserman Schultz showed up and said the quiet part out loud — twice. Her explanation of why the SAVE Act is dangerous was essentially a live confession that the Democratic Party depends on the participation of people who are, by law, not supposed to be voting. Larry plays the clip back, slows it down, and lets her words do the work. Chuck Schumer called the bill "fringe." Larry points out that 85 to 95 percent of Americans — including 71 percent of Democrats — support it. Larry also walks through the political reality: even if Senate Democrats successfully filibuster the bill, Speaker Johnson is prepared to embed the SAVE Act into must-pass legislation. Either way, every Democrat who stands up to oppose it is producing campaign ads for the midterms. Larry says he's ready to start producing them now.

In this episode of The Leader's Table Podcast, host Diana Murphy lays out the "dirty secret" of transformational growth for business owners and leaders: real change is often confusing, disorienting, and guaranteed to bring strong emotions, not just excitement.  She argues emotions aren't good or bad, and that resisting grief, anxiety, fear, anger, or disappointment can block not only growth but also access to joy and wisdom. Drawing from her experience navigating divorce and coaching clients, she explains that learning to engage emotions as a portal—not an obstacle—builds self-awareness, agency, groundedness, and clearer decision-making.  Diana contrasts this with her past patterns of worry, procrastination, and toxic positivity, and offers reflective questions and practices like slowing down, noticing the body and breath, getting curious without judgment, and letting emotional energy move.   00:00 The Dirty Secret of Growth 01:07 Transformation Feels Messy 02:42 Emotions as a Portal 05:49 Old Patterns and Burnout 08:04 Coaching Shift to Allowing 09:19 Emotions Are Energy in Motion 10:27 Questions to Get Curious 12:25 Let It Move Find Wisdom 14:27 Closing and Share the Episode   Diana supports leaders like you who are wholeheartedly invested in their leadership and personal growth.

In this video, find out why I would never take Ozempic, the Ozempic dangers they never tell you about, and the semaglutide side effects that will make you think twice about taking Ozempic. Download Dr. Berg's Free Daily Health Routine: https://drbrg.co/45qtO070:00 Introduction: Ozempic explained0:39 Ozempic muscle loss2:15 Natural GLP-1 system2:39 GLP-1 drug side effects4:30 How to avoid Ozempic dangers 10:27 Ozempic truth and the problem with modern medicine11:35 What to do instead of OzempicWhen you lose 50 pounds on Ozempic, you haven't only lost fat; you've also lost muscle. Research has shown that most people gain two-thirds of their weight back within a year of quitting Ozempic. This new weight gain is nearly all fat!Ozempic hijacks a system that already occurs naturally in your body. There are specialized cells in the digestive system called L-cells that increase GLP-1 when stimulated. GLP-1 tells the brain it's no longer hungry, releases insulin, and slows digestion. For many people, the natural GLP-1 system is broken. To activate this system without the use of Ozempic, you'll need to naturally trigger the L-cells and activate GLP-1. This won't work as powerfully as Ozempic, but it can create a significant effect. To do this, consume the following:• Short-chain fatty acids • Apple cider vinegar• Fermented foods • Fiber with each meal• Omega-3 fats • Olive oil• Avocado oil • Amino acids • Bile salts (TUDCA)There are specific types of fiber that help support this process, including inulin found in garlic and onions, leeks, asparagus, artichokes, flax seeds, chia seeds, and avocados. Try replacing salad with sauerkraut to activate GLP-1. Modern medicine does not address root causes, but rather addresses symptoms that occur later in the chain of events. This holds true for Ozempic. Instead of taking Ozempic, try the following:1. Protein and fiber 2. Eliminate starches and sugar from your diet3. Walk after meals4. Consume 1-2 meals per day, no snacking5. Weight trainingDr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

Your morning coffee may come with a side of modern slavery, child labor, and mass deforestation and it only costs 2-3 cents more per cup to fix it. In this episode of Purple Political Breakdown, host Radell Lewis sits down with Etelle Higonnet, founder and director of Coffee Watch, Yale Law School graduate, and internationally recognized human rights attorney who has been knighted by the French government for her pioneering work to curb deforestation in high-risk commodity industries. With experience at Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, Greenpeace, and two war crimes tribunals plus fieldwork in over 30 countries Etelle brings unmatched expertise to a crisis most coffee drinkers know nothing about. Together they break down how the coffee industry traps 125 million farmers and workers in poverty, why coffee is the sixth largest driver of deforestation worldwide, and how exploitation in coffee-producing countries like Brazil, Colombia, and Mexico directly fuels the immigration crisis at the U.S. border. They also tackle growing skepticism around NGOs, why certifications like organic and fair trade fall short, what Coffee Watch's groundbreaking lawsuits and CBP customs petitions could mean for the entire industry, and what everyday consumers can do right now to push for real reform.

Cherene Aubert is the CEO of Growth Capital, a growth marketing firm that scales consumer brands. As a seasoned e-commerce and digital growth leader, she has nearly two decades of experience scaling DTC brands and managing media investments across multiple high-growth companies. Before Growth Capital, Cherene was the Fractional SVP of Digital & eCommerce at ILIA Beauty, where she drove omnichannel digital strategy for a rapidly growing clean beauty brand.  In this episode…  Marketing has become automated and identical across companies. Brands chase the same ads, channels, and short-term wins, only to discover that growth stalls and loyalty disappears. How can you build something memorable and scale without losing trust? The way forward starts with obsessing over customers, not competitors. As a growth and e-commerce leader, Cherene Aubert maintains that brands should use customer insights — from ad data to conversations — to guide creative strategy, redefine quality as value for the customer, and invest in full-funnel thinking. This requires originality, emotional resonance, and the space for creative teams to build long-term demand rather than quick conversions.  In this episode of the Up Arrow Podcast, William Harris sits down with Cherene Aubert, CEO of Growth Capital, to discuss how brands can escape the marketing echo chamber. Cherene explains why copying competitors backfires, how full-funnel content drives sustainable growth, and how premium and beauty brands can stay culturally relevant.

When you hire a marketing agency for your law firm, how do you know you're going to get real results? In this episode of Cut to the Chase: Podcast, host Gregg Goldfarb is joined by Florida patent attorney and author John Rizvi, widely known as The Patent Professor™ and The Law Firm Growth Professor™, to uncover the dirty secrets of legal marketing. From misleading metrics to branding mistakes that quietly drain budgets, John shares what most marketing agencies won't tell you. Starting with nothing more than a cell phone and a laptop in a spare bedroom, John built his intellectual property practice into an eight-figure firm with 60 employees. How? By cracking the code on branding, storytelling, and measurable marketing. In this candid conversation, John shares insights from his new book, "Dirty Secrets Marketing Agencies Use to Rip Lawyers Off". He explains why memorability beats logos, how niche branding actually works, and why "going viral" can be both a blessing and a trap. This episode is a must-listen for anyone trying to stand out in a crowded market, avoid costly marketing missteps, and build a brand that actually sticks. What to expect in this episode: Why most firms struggle with marketing (and where they go wrong) The branding strategy behind "The Patent Professor" and why names matter more than logos How split-testing and niche branding drive real client recall The risks and rewards of viral content and creative marketing Why authenticity and vulnerability outperform polished perfection The "dirty secrets" marketing agencies use, including vanity metrics and churn How to measure marketing success in dollars (not likes or views) The truth about AI in marketing and what it can (and can't) realistically do If you've ever questioned whether your marketing dollars are actually working, or wondered how some brands become unforgettable while others fade into the noise, this episode is for you!   Stay tuned for more updates, and don't miss our next deep dive on Cut to the Chase: Podcast with Gregg Goldfarb!   Subscribe, rate, review, and share this episode of the Cut to the Chase: Podcast!   Resources: Watch John rap live: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkRLck8QrIw&feature=youtu.be  Watch John's music video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jA2j5zsrKRI John Rizvi's Books: https://johnrizvi.com/#books  Listen to The Law Firm Growth Professor Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-law-firm-growth-professor-podcast/id1802916747  Get a FREE COPY of "If You Brand It, They Will Come" by John Rizvi: https://www.thelawfirmgrowthprofessor.com/john-rizvi---free-copy-of-book  The Patent Professor: https://thepatentprofessor.com  The Law Firm Growth Professor: https://www.thelawfirmgrowthprofessor.com  Connect with John Rizvi on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/floridapatentattorney    This episode was produced and brought to you by Reignite Media.

I spent 15 years only watching sports because of my life at ESPN, so I missed the initial Duck Dynasty craze—but getting to know Willie and Korie Robertson today was exactly what my soul needed. We go far beyond the camo and the beards to discuss the raw reality of family, faith, and what happens when your life changes overnight. In this episode, Korie and Willie get incredibly honest about their "rough start"—including a breakup at 17 and a "knockdown drag-out" fight with Korie's father before they got married at 18 and 19. We talk about the psychology of sudden fame, the "ginger angel" that changed Willie's health, and the "nuclear reactor" of stress that comes with running a family business while filming a hit TV show. We also dive deep into why they never left their hometown, how they handled the loss of the legendary Phil Robertson, and their mission to bring good news and revival to a world that feels increasingly dark. Whether you're a longtime fan or new to their journey, this conversation is a masterclass in resilience and staying rooted in what matters. Sponsors: Good Ranchers - Subscribe and save up to $500.

Federal prosecutors have released a massive  tranche of documents connected to the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein as part of a transparency law, and those files show his extensive ties to powerful figures in tech and beyond. The documents include emails and correspondence involving prominent tech leaders such as Elon Musk and Bill Gates, among others, discussing social plans, personal matters, and interactions with Epstein long after his 2008 conviction for soliciting prostitution involving a minor. Though appearing in the files does not imply criminal wrongdoing, the records show Musk asked Epstein about boat and holiday plans and expressed interest in visiting Epstein's private Caribbean island, while Epstein drafted unsent emails containing unverified and salacious allegations about Gates. Both tech figures have publicly denied impropriety, with spokespersons and social media posts rebutting any misconduct and characterizing their connections as limited or misinterpreted.Beyond individual interactions, the broader batch of more than three million pages paints a picture of Epstein's enduring access to elite social and business circles, including Silicon Valley and philanthropic networks. Documents suggest that Epstein remained welcome at exclusive dinners and gatherings with billionaire tech and finance leaders, and he even invested in early cryptocurrency ventures like Coinbase alongside major venture capital firms despite his criminal past. While the Justice Department has stated that the material does not establish a basis for new criminal charges, the release has reignited scrutiny of Epstein's relationships with influential people and sparked political and public calls for fuller accountability for those whose names appear in the files.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Jeffrey Epstein files reveal deep tech ties, from Musk to Gates

Today's episode exposes an issue far deeper than most parents realize: what's actually inside our public and school libraries. The journey began when I opened a copy of Gender Queer in a small-town bookstore and saw a graphic sexual illustration—sitting in plain view for any child to pick up. That moment sent me down a trail that led from local libraries all the way up to the American Library Association.To help us understand the full picture, I interview Bonnie Wallace from Llano County, Texas. Bonnie discovered explicit books containing graphic scenes, sexual content, and online grooming pathways—in the children's section of her library. When she raised concerns, she and her county were sued for simply moving the books to the adult side.Her legal battle went from the local level, to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court—resulting in a landmark decision affirming the right of libraries to protect kids from inappropriate material.In this conversation, we break down:-How radical ideology has infiltrated the American Library Association and state library associations-Why explicit materials are being pushed toward minors-Why some books are too explicit for prisoners, yet accessible to children-How pornography and graphic content shape a child's mind-What Christian librarians and Christian parents must do-Practical steps for protecting your kids at home, school, and in your county-Why Christians must run for school boards, library boards, and local office-And why “book banning” is a false narrative—this is about book boundaries, not censorshipParents: your vigilance matters. Shepherd your kids' hearts. Guard what they see. Engage in your local community.If one woman can take on the library industry and win, imagine what thousands of Christians standing up for righteousness could do.Join us weekly as we strive help people embrace God's standard for sexuality! Other ways to listen:https://linktr.ee/calibrateconversations#Sexuality #Libraries #Scandal

When you want to reach out to someone — to ask them on a date, invite them to an event, or simply connect — what's the best way to do it? Text? Email? A phone call?

Humans are naturally drawn to the morbid, and science suggests there may be real benefits to that curiosity. My guest Coltan Scrivner is a leading expert on morbid curiosity and frightening entertainment and he is here to explain why we are drawn to things that disgust us and why we can't look away when we see them. He's the author of Morbidly Curious: A Scientist Explains Why We Can't Look Away (https://amzn.to/46FKyQQ), and his insights will change how you see your own curiosity. We call solar, wind, and battery power “clean energy” — but behind the label lies a far dirtier truth.

Ernest Scheyder, senior correspondent for Reuters and author of The War Below: Lithium, Copper, and the Global Battle to Power Our Lives (https://amzn.to/42rZtNw), pulls back the curtain on the hidden side of alternative energy.
