There are a lot of options out there and while many of the names are used interchangeably, there are actually differences.   Let Paul know which water you prefer to drink in the comments section on Spotify or comment on the RE Instagram page under this episode's post.   [07:12] Paul introduces Jordan:   Jordan is 35 years old, lives in Las Vegas, NV. Jordan is a field installation lead for a modular home company. He has two children and has been married for five years. For fun he enjoys skateboarding and spending time with his kids.   Jordan says he first started drinking when he was 15 years old spending summers in Detroit with a cousin that was 21. In high school, Jordan played football and says that it was normal to meet up at somebody's house after a game and drink.   When Jordan was 19, he got into the music industry as a rapper and songwriter. Drinking was part of that culture as well. Jordan found himself blacking out and frequently getting into fights. His mother confronted him about his drinking when he was 20 and told him he should go to AA. He disagreed and believed he could keep it under control.   Jordan was 23 when he began working in the concert industry as a stagehand and rigger. The schedule was hectic and drinking after a long night was the norm. Jordan's drinking began to cause him to get kicked off of tours with big artists.   In 2015, Jordan's grandfather died. For the next year, Jordan was able to limit his drinking. In between tours over the next year, his grandmother committed suicide. This led Jordan to quit his job and move back to Detroit where he was depressed and spending a lot of time alone.   A friend of Jordan's got him back in the tour business, but his drinking continued to create issues and fights he got into led to him losing work again. Jordan decided to move back to California. He didn't quit drinking and began using Xanax.   Jordan and his wife got together after she bought a puppy from him. After they had their daughter, Jordan began attempting to quit drinking by way of 75 Hard challenges. He was always ready to drink as soon as they were done, however.   In late 2024, a domestic dispute found Jordan going to jail. He tried to quit but didn't make it past 45 days. He says his drinking slowed down because he wouldn't let himself forget the night he went to jail.   Jordan was suffering from a bad hangover the morning he decided to quit. He told his wife that he couldn't do it anymore and while she had never told him to quit, she was pleased to hear that he was ready to.   Telling his wife was freeing. Each month she gets him chips to celebrate. Jordan began attending AA and went to meetings daily for the first four months. His friends have reacted encouragingly and one of them joined him in recovery after he reached 90 days.   Since quitting, Jordan has noticed the brain fog is gone, he has more gratitude for what he gets to do each day and has a lot more energy. He doesn't believe he will ever drink again. He looks forward to living a long healthy life with is family while being present for every moment.   Recovery Elevator You took the elevator down.

I don't believe in fluffy self-love, and I don't believe in motivating yourself through self-hatred, because both crash and burn eventually. In this episode I'm breaking down the old script most high achievers are running vs. the new script you NEED to build. Standards and discipline: the old script, where you only stay disciplined if you hate your body enough, where work is armor against feeling worthless, where rest has to be earned, and where shame is the only enforcement mechanism you know. And the new script, where standards come from self-respect instead of self-hatred, where they're firm without the cruelty, and where progress is slower to build but doesn't cost you your body, your relationships, or your sanity to sustain, AND lasts for life. I'm also unpacking why the new script often feels harder at first, not easier, and the specific signs that tell you you're slipping back into the old one. If you've ever wondered why you can't seem to stay motivated once you stop hating your body, or why "giving yourself grace" doesn't actually feel like it's working, this episode is for you. -- For the high-achieving hot girls that want to recover better, support glowier skin, and promote longevity through better cellular health, get up to 39% off Mitopure Gummies with code EMDUNC and make wellness easier than ever.

In this episode, Tara sits down with former WWE superstar, entrepreneur and podcaster Leah Van Dale for an honest conversation about identity, motherhood, and stepping into a new creative era. Leah opens up about her journey from professional dancer to wrestling royalty as Carmella, including winning the first Women's “Money in the Bank," sharing the emotional shifts that came with leaving her high-profile WWE career behind.  As a mom navigating the real-world pressures of parenthood, she reflects on how becoming a mother reshaped her priorities, forced her to confront social media comparison culture, and stripped away the pressure to "do it all" without burning out. Together, Tara and Leah dive into the messy beauty of holding multiple truths, proving that ambition and devotion to family can coexist, even when life feels completely chaotic. Leah discusses her drive to build genuine connection through Snatch, a platform crafted to facilitate conversations around pregnancy and postpartum, as well as her new podcast Hot Mom Sh*t. Exploring everything from body image struggles to book recommendations like The Power Pause and When Life Happens, this empowering conversation is a reassuring reminder that motherhood doesn't mean sidelining your ambition, but discovering an exciting new way to thrive.

It is a four-week live course, every Wednesday in September at 8pm Eastern   [01:50] Thoughts from Paul:   Paul shares a YouTube video from Seth Capehart MD about The World's Most Encouraged Drug.   He gives a brief history of alcohol, that we have been consuming it for thousands of years as humans. It used to serve a vital purpose then, because fermented beverages with a low alcohol content were safer to drink than water. Eventually engineers figured out to provide clean drinking water, but the alcohol consumption stuck around.   The doctor shares what alcohol does to our bodies. It taxes the liver and wrecks our hormones. The doctor says if you were trying to create a hormonal environment that would make you fat, weak, and tired, alcohol would be perfect that. He says it's the most invisible, yet visible problem he's encountered in medicine.   The next time you find yourself romanticizing a drink, remember the statistics and how terribly it affects our body.      Alcohol was the most encouraged drug, but that's changing and you are part of it.   [08:35] Paul introduces Mitchell:   Mitchell is 30 years old, and lives in Missouri with his wife and three cats. For work, Mitchell is an RN and for fun he enjoys fitness, various types of gaming and is competing in his first triathlon.   Mitchell says that growing up, both of his parents were problem drinkers. He hated seeing his parents drunk and by the time he was 10 or 11, he swore he was never going to drink.   During a bout of depression when he was 18, Mitchell decided to try alcohol to numb the discomfort. He would drink in his room by himself and knew from the start it wasn't normal behavior.   When Mitchell went to college in 2015, he says his mental health had improved and the change in environment and meeting new people helped. His drinking looked different than his friends' and he chose to ignore the voice inside telling him he might have an issue. He was sober curious at times but wasn't ready to quit.   After graduating, Mitchell's work as a nurse enabled him to have a schedule for when he could drink. He got married in 2023 and Mitchell says it was clear that this wasn't a cycle he should continue now that there is another person in his life. She is a normal drinker and didn't understand Mitchell's desire to keep going after she was drinking after she was ready to stop. This created conflict for them.   Mitchell began to sneak drinks so that his wife wouldn't know that amount he was drinking and he was always ready to downplay the drinking when she brought it up.   When his brother-in-law announced that he was quitting after a rough night out, Mitchell decided to speak up and say he would join him. He didn't put a timeline on it, but by saying it out loud, Mitchell knew he would be able to stop for a little while. Having the accountability buddy was helpful and then his wife joined in to support them both.   On day nine, his father passed away from an alcohol-related illness. This solidified Mitchell's intention to stay sober, and he started looking for resources. He began listening to the RE podcast and reading quit lit. Not long after he began attending AA and got a sponsor to work the steps with. Mitchell feels fortunate to have a great support system both in and out of AA.   Mitchell's parting piece of guidance: Don't suffer in silence.   Recovery Elevator You took the elevator down.

Being nice and being a pushover are not the same thing, and only one of them gets you respected.Danny Goldberg wrote the book on this, literally. He's the author of "A Little Bit of A$$hole," and he joins the show to talk about the fine line between people pleasing and having real boundaries, and why the leaders who get remembered are the ones who know the difference.Here's what you'll learn:The gut-check question that tells you it's time to stop people-pleasing, before resentment builds.Why pushing harder when someone stalls backfires, and exactly what to do instead.The real difference between confidence and being a jerk, which means you can stand firm and still be liked.Why companies hire resumes and fire personalities, and why that's exactly backwards for building a team.The one thing you should never do at the end of a talk or a hard conversation, so next time you leave people with your strongest point instead of a shrug.Boundaries don't make you a jerk. They make you someone people respect.If you needed permission to stop over-explaining every no, this is it. Grab Danny's book, "A Little Bit of A$$hole," at littlebitahole.com.Connect with Danny M.

You've probably sat through a meeting where someone read directly off their slides, and you checked out within minutes.   Now flip that perspective. As a leader, how often are you focused on what you're saying, but not how you're showing up?   Andy Freed has spent years helping leaders rethink that exact gap. As Chairman of Virtual, Inc. and author of Lead Like the Boss, Andy challenges the idea that leadership is just about delivering information. Instead, he frames it as a performance; one where your presence, energy, and intention are always on display, whether you realize it or not.   On this episode of The Workplace Communication Podcast, we're talking with Andy Freed, Chairman of Virtual, Inc., about why leadership is a performance and how being more intentional about how you show up can transform the way your message is received. Join us as we learn how to move beyond surface-level communication and create real connection, why emotional impact matters just as much as clarity, and how small, everyday behaviors can either build or quietly erode trust.   Leadership tips you won't want to miss: 

https://youtu.be/S2sPlHrU7sE https://www.uncommen.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/August-7th.mp3 Spiritual Leader in Marriage: Real Prayer, Not Performance There is a silent but devastating epidemic quietly wrecking Christian marriages, and it has absolutely nothing to do with money, work schedules, or in-laws. The crisis is happening in the five feet of space between a husband and his wife at the end of the day, in the seconds right before the lights go out. Far too many men will fix the garbage disposal, coach the kids' baseball team, and manage the family budget without blinking, but they go completely silent the moment real spiritual leadership is required. We hear the exact same confession from men all over the country: "I know I'm supposed to be the spiritual leader, but the idea of holding my wife's hand and praying out loud feels incredibly awkward." They are physically present in the marriage but spiritually absent in the one place that matters most. The modern definition of being a spiritual leader in marriage has tricked men into believing the job is strictly about providing, protecting, and occasionally quoting a verse at Thanksgiving dinner. We have been sold a massive lie that a spiritual leader in marriage simply needs to show up on Sunday and call it done. For generations, men have mistakenly assumed that being a spiritual leader in marriage was limited to decisions and discipline. While leading decisively is absolutely part of the job, it is only the baseline requirement. It is the starting line, not the finish line. To fully grasp what a spiritual leader in marriage actually is, we have to aggressively look past the comfortable, silent version of faith and peer directly into the terrifying, beautiful work of praying with your wife out loud. The Passive Prayer Trap: Confusing Silence for a Spiritual Leader in Marriage Most men do not reject spiritual leadership on purpose. They quietly outsource it instead. It happens gradually: she starts the meal prayer because he waits half a beat too long, she reads the kids their bedtime devotion because he is tired, she brings up the hard conversation about faith because he changes the subject. None of it looks like abdication in the moment. It looks like convenience. But over months and years, this passive drift becomes the actual definition of the marriage, and the role of spiritual leader in marriage quietly becomes hers by default instead of his by design. The trap is comfortable because silence never fails publicly. A man who never prays out loud with his wife never stumbles over his words in front of her, never says something theologically clumsy, never has to sit in the uncomfortable seconds after "Amen" wondering if he did it right. But comfort was never the calling. A true spiritual leader in marriage is not the man with the fewest awkward moments; he is the man willing to have them anyway, over and over, until awkward becomes normal and normal becomes sacred. This brings us to a harsh but necessary truth about being a spiritual leader in marriage: silence is not neutral. It is a decision. Every night a man chooses not to initiate prayer with his wife, he is actively deciding that leadership can wait for a more comfortable moment that, statistically, almost never arrives on its own. Vulnerability Versus Performance: The Real Battlefield for a Spiritual Leader in Marriage Ask a man to walk into a boardroom and pitch a million-dollar deal, and he will rehearse, sweat, and show up anyway. Ask that same man to hold his wife's hand and pray out loud, and something in him locks up completely. This is not weakness. It is exposure. A sales pitch can be rejected without touching your identity. A prayer spoken out loud in front of the woman who knows you best exposes exactly who you are, doubts and all, with no script to hide behind. That exposure is the real battlefield of vulnerability in marriage, and it is precisely why so many men avoid it. Growing up, most prayer was internal — private, silent, safe. God already knew the mess, so there was nothing to perform. But the second that prayer becomes audible and shared, a man has to reckon with a question he has spent years avoiding: what happens when my wife hears exactly what I am struggling with? Here is the part men consistently miss. Vulnerability in marriage is not the opposite of strength; it is the proving ground of it. A spiritual leader in marriage who never lets his wife see the struggle is not protecting her — he is quietly deciding that his comfort matters more than her ability to actually know him, pray for him, and walk with him through what he is carrying. Hiding behind the "I'm supposed to be the rock" excuse is not leadership. It is self-preservation wearing a leadership costume. Being a Spiritual Leader in Marriage in the Bedroom: The Middle of the Mundane The real work of being a spiritual leader in marriage rarely happens in a dramatic crisis. It happens in the mundane, unglamorous middle — specifically, on the edge of the bed, at the end of an exhausting day, when the easiest thing in the world is to roll over and go to sleep. Couples who make praying with your wife a nightly, physical habit — kneeling together, holding hands, saying it out loud before the lights go out — consistently describe it as one of the most transformative disciplines in their marriage, not because the words are polished, but because the posture is obedient. This is where Matthew 18:19 becomes directly relevant: "Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven." This verse is not a blank check for a new truck or a bigger house. It is a promise about spiritual agreement — two people, aligned in heart, bringing something honestly before God together. Notice that the verse does not say "if two of you say the right words." It says "agree," which requires two people who actually know what is going on inside each other. You cannot agree in prayer with your wife about a battle you have never told her you are fighting. Praying with your wife every night does not require a dramatic setting. It requires showing up in the middle of the mundane, again and again, until the habit becomes as normal as brushing your teeth — and infinitely more important. Ditching the Holy Vocabulary: Leading by Example, Not Eloquence One of the most common excuses men give for avoiding prayer out loud is a fear of sounding wrong. Men worry they need the perfect combination of words, the "holy" vocabulary, the pastor-approved phrasing, before God will actually hear them or before their wife will take them seriously. This fear is completely manufactured. God is not grading a performance. He wants your authentic heart as a husband, not a theological essay. This obsession with sounding right is its own version of hypocrisy — the same trap that ruins a spiritual leader in marriage everywhere else in his life. A man who waits to pray out loud until he can do it eloquently is modeling the exact wrong lesson: that faith is a performance for the polished, not a relationship for the honest. Your wife does not need a sermon. She needs to hear you say, plainly and imperfectly, "Lord, I don't know what to do about this, but I need Your help, and so does she." Romans 8:26 says the Spirit himself intercedes for us "with groanings too deep for words." That is not a footnote — it is permission. If the Holy Spirit is willing to translate your incomplete, stumbling prayer into something the Father understands perfectly, you have zero excuse to keep waiting for eloquence before you open your mouth in front of your wife. The Power of Shared Prayer: Your Marriage's Intimacy Superweapon Audible, shared prayer is quite possibly the single fastest way to disarm an ongoing marital cold war and rebuild broken emotional trust. When a husband prays out loud about the actual thing he and his wife are struggling with — her mother, his job, the argument from three nights ago — something shifts. She is no longer guessing what is going on in his head. She can see his heart laid open in real time, directed toward God and spoken in front of her. Research on faith and marriage consistently points in the same direction: couples who maintain shared spiritual practices report deeper communication and higher relational satisfaction than couples who do not, a pattern reflected in Barna Group's ongoing research on faith and family life. Focus on the Family has documented similar findings, noting that couples who pray together consistently report a stronger sense of partnership through conflict. None of this is complicated theology. It is simply what happens when two people stop hiding from each other in the one relationship built for total exposure. This intimacy superweapon is exactly what separates a spiritual leader in marriage from a passive roommate who simply lives in the same house. It does not require a title or a certificate. It requires initiation. If you want a deeper look at the forces actively working against that intimacy, read our related piece on signs of spiritual warfare — because a marriage where the husband refuses to pray out loud with his wife is exactly the kind of silence the enemy wants to protect. Taking Immediate Action Today Being a spiritual leader in marriage is not a passive title you earn simply by existing; it is an active, daily pursuit that requires extreme intentionality. You cannot undo the years of silent prayer, and you cannot manufacture instant comfort with vulnerability in marriage overnight. But you can absolutely change the trajectory of your marriage starting tonight. Here is your immediate, non-negotiable action step for this week: tonight, before you go to sleep, take your wife's hand and pray out loud for sixty seconds. Do not write a script. Do not wait for a crisis to justify it....

MICHAELBASHAM.COMMy son, forget not my law or teaching, but let your heart keep my commandments...

You might have heard Gen Z being called the “sober generation” - the data suggests that we're less likely to drink than older generations, that alcohol-free brands are getting more popular with under-30s and there's a huge push towards sobriety and wellness culture more generally. At the same time, pre-mixed cocktails are flying off the shelves - and new figures suggest that binge drinking has gone up.So is Gen Z really drinking less than previous generations? Or is that just a myth?In this episode, we go to one of London's alcohol-free pubs to chat to three guests who all stopped drinking in their 20s: Millie, founder of the Sober Girl Society and author of HANGXIETY, Daniel, creative director of The Scene, a South Asian-led collective organising alcohol-free events in London, and Tyler, a content creator. We discuss how drinking culture is changing — and whether quitting alcohol is on the rise for Gen Z.Instagram: @bbcwhatintheworld Email: whatintheworld@bbc.co.uk WhatsApp: +44 330 12 33 22 6 Presenter: Hannah Gelbart Producers: Chelsea Coates and William Lee Adams Video Producer: Baldeep Chahal Editor: Verity Wilde

Donny and Lou run through the brands shaping the week — from private equity turning bowling night into a $284 splurge, to nostalgic parents buying their kids Wi-Fi landlines to dodge spam calls and screen time. They dig into a new survey showing one in four millennials admit to shoplifting (blaming inflation), debate whether baseball needs a salary cap as a work stoppage looms, and question a Mountain Dew Baja Blast hand sanitizer that might be the next Tide Pod challenge waiting to happen. Plus: Viagra's surprising potential cancer-fighting powers, Tom Holland doing his own Fred Astaire-style dancing for an upcoming biopic, shark cage diving becoming the world's fastest-growing bucket list experience, and a genuinely good stat to end on — U.S. homicide rates hitting an all-time low.

Click to Text Thoughts on Today's EpisodeAs part of the Graced Health Sunset Series, I sit down with Kate Lyman — nutrition coach, Master of Public Health, Certified Health Education Specialist, and owner of Kate Lyman Nutrition. Kate also co-hosts the How to Fitness podcast alongside Michael Ulloa, where the pair bring an evidence-based, ad-free lens to trending wellness and nutrition topics.In this conversation, Kate breaks down how she and Michael research and script their deep-dive episodes, why the menopause transition is a hotbed for health misinformation, and why "it depends" might be the most honest (and most frustrating) answer in wellness. We also swap stories on episodes that surprised us, the sketchy side of the supplement industry, and how to think clearly about GLP-1 medications.Topics Discussed Today:Behind the scenes of a research-heavy podcast Why the menopause transition attracts so much misinformation The pull of hot takes Framing health advice as experimentation Navigating GLP-1 medications Kate's one takeaway for listenersEpisode LinksHow To Fitness Podcasthttps://www.katelymannutrition.com/how-to-fitness-podcastMy latest recommended ways to nourish and move your body, mind and spirit: Nourished Notes Bi-Weekly Newsletter30+ Non-Gym Ways to Improve Your Health (free download)Connect with Amy: GracedHealth.com Instagram: @GracedHealthYouTube: @AmyConnell

But five minutes in, you'll forget all about that last part.We talked about the wild whiplash of "celebrity adjacent" life (private jets to studio apartments, anyone?), the terrifying reality of teenage superfans, and why she left a career in finance and accounting to chase her standup dreams. We also got into the real stuff: bombing on stage, learning to take a note without losing yourself, "friendship pruning," and why we believesnothing in your life experience is ever wasted.There were laughs (duh), a little TMI about Top Gun Maverick, and a whole lot of "it's never too late."

Www.michaelBasham.com My son, forget not my law or teaching, but let your heart keep my commandments; 2 For length of days and years of a life [worth living] and tranquility [inward and outward and continuing through old age till death], these shall they add to you. 3 Let not mercy and kindness [shutting out all hatred and selfishness] and truth [shutting out all deliberate hypocrisy or falsehood] forsake you; bind them about your neck, write them upon the tablet of your heart. 4 So shall you find favor, good understanding, and high esteem in the sight [or judgment] of God and man. 5 Lean on, trust in, and be confident in the Lord with all your heart and mind and do not rely on your own insight or understanding. 6 In all your ways know, recognize, and acknowledge Him, and He will direct and make straight and plain your paths. 7 Be not wise in your own eyes; reverently fear and worship the Lord and turn [entirely] away from evil. 8 It shall be health to your nerves and sinews, and marrow and moistening to your bones. 9 Honor the Lord with your capital and sufficiency [from righteous labors] and with the firstfruits of all your income; 10 So shall your storage places be filled with plenty, and your vats shall be overflowing with new wine. 11 My son, do not despise or shrink from the chastening of the Lord [His correction by punishment or by subjection to suffering or trial]; neither be weary of or impatient about or loathe or abhor His reproof, 12 For whom the Lord loves He corrects, even as a father corrects the son in whom he delights. 13 Happy (blessed, fortunate, enviable) is the man who finds skillful and godly Wisdom, and the man who gets understanding [drawing it forth from God's Word and life's experiences], 14 For the gaining of it is better than the gaining of silver, and the profit of it better than fine gold. 15 Skillful and godly [a]Wisdom is more precious than rubies; and nothing you can wish for is to be compared to her. 16 Length of days is in her right hand, and in her left hand are riches and honor. 17 Her ways are highways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. 18 She is a tree of life to those who lay hold on her; and happy (blessed, fortunate, to be envied) is everyone who holds her fast. 19 The Lord by skillful and godly Wisdom has founded the earth; by understanding He has established the heavens. 20 By His knowledge the deeps were broken up, and the skies distill the dew. 21 My son, let them not escape from your sight, but keep sound and godly Wisdom and discretion, 22 And they will be life to your inner self, and a gracious ornament to your neck (your outer self). 23 Then you will walk in your way securely and in confident trust, and you shall not dash your foot or stumble. 24 When you lie down, you shall not be afraid; yes, you shall lie down, and your sleep shall be sweet. 25 Be not afraid of sudden terror and panic, nor of the stormy blast or the storm and ruin of the wicked when it comes [for you will be guiltless], 26 For the Lord shall be your confidence, firm and strong, and shall keep your foot from being caught [in a trap or some hidden danger]. 27 Withhold not good from those to whom it is due [its rightful owners], when it is in the power of your hand to do it. 28 Do not say to your neighbor, Go, and come again; and tomorrow I will give it—when you have it with you. 29 Do not contrive or dig up or cultivate evil against your neighbor, who dwells trustingly and confidently beside you. 30 Contend not with a man for no reason—when he has done you no wrong. 31 Do not resentfully envy and be jealous of an unscrupulous, grasping man, and choose none of his ways. 32 For the perverse are an abomination [extremely disgusting and detestable] to the Lord; but His confidential communion and secret counsel are with the [uncompromisingly] righteous (those who are upright and in right standing with Him). 33 The curse of the Lord is in and on the house of the wicked, but He declares blessed (joyful and favored with blessings) the home of the just and consistently righteous. 34 Though He scoffs at the scoffers and scorns the scorners, yet He gives His undeserved favor to the low [in rank], the humble, and the afflicted. 35 The wise shall inherit glory (all honor and good) but shame is the highest rank conferred on [self-confident] fools.

Are you missing out on deals because you think high interest rates killed your cash flow? I hope not! In this episode, I break down fatal financing mistakes #3 and #4 — missing deals based on interest rates, and desperately needing lenders — plus the fix for both. I'll show you the exact numbers on a $105,000 loan that prove private money crushes traditional financing (we're talking a $478/month difference), and I'll share how Eric, a flipper in Dayton, made an extra $35,000 on a single deal just by raising private money instead of taking on a funding partner. If you've been letting interest rates talk you out of deals, this one's for you.Visit our website at www.TrueWealthInvestors.com for more real estate wisdom and resources.

It is a week of brutal purges, shifting cabinets, and dramatic resets across the London political landscape. Lesley Riddoch and Fraser Thompson deliver their analysis on a fast-moving news cycle as Prime Minister Andy Burnham takes the keys to Number 10 and Sir Keir Starmer retreats to the pub with his ousted frontbench. From cutting energy VAT and scrapping the digital ID scheme to breaking news of a desperate Thames Water bailout offer, they strip away the Westminster spin to ask if this newer Labour administration can truly 'rewire' Britain or if it's all just temporary vibes. In this episode, we discuss:The Burnham Purge & Starmer's Pub of the Damned: An breakdown of the cabinet reshuffle that saw Sir Keir Starmer replaced by Prime Minister Andy Burnham. We analyze the northern-heavy cabinet, including Ed Miliband's move to Foreign Secretary, Yvette Cooper at Health, Miata Fanabulla entering Net Zero, and Louise Haigh's return, while disgruntled Starmerites lick their wounds over pints in a London pub.Ditching the Digital ID for Energy VAT Cuts: We unpick Burnham's headline policy—saving billpayers a modest £45 a year by cutting the 5% domestic energy VAT, funded by axing the digital ID scheme. We look at the OBR's warnings that these departmental savings are completely unidentified and look to Estonia to explain why a genuine, trust-based society is required to build a real digital nation.Devolution Contradictions & Jack McConnell: Former First Minister Jack McConnell took to the airwaves to defend the new devolution agenda, but we examine how he quickly tied himself in knots over energy control. We explore Labour's deep disconnect with rural Scotland and why Burnham's plans to emulate Germany's federalised government structure ignore truly local government.The Thames Water Legal Tussle: Breaking news hits the podcast mid-record as a consortium of lenders offers a "golden share" to the UK government to prevent Thames Water from crashing into nationalisation. Lesley explains why the Burnham government should actively welcome a high-profile legal fight with foreign private equity firms to prove they mean business.Housing First in Finland and Scotland: We look at the long-term success of Helsinki's Housing First program, which dramatically cuts emergency service costs by providing stable housing and community support before tackling addiction. With 26 out of Scotland's 32 local authorities already operating Housing First, we note that Scotland is already leading the way where England struggles.Deconstructing Starmer's Wooden Exit: While the mainstream commentariat swooned over Starmer's final PMQs, we pull away the Emperor's clothes. From his absolute refusal to admit to policy U-turns to his viral primary school anecdote, we explain how his hand-picked gallery guests failed to mask his legacy of two-child benefit caps and winter fuel cuts.Summer Break & Bramble Homework: The podcast takes its summer recess for the next two weeks, returning on Tuesday, August 11th. Fraser sets your holiday homework to challenge your local MPs and MSPs on independence, while Lesley provides a far sweeter alternative: get out to pick this year's bumper crop of mega-brambles and make your own ice cream!LinksGlasgow Times River Clyde Pool Project - https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/news/26290574.ambitious-plans-floating-swimming-pool-river-clyde/Finland Film - https://youtu.be/J1mpytgMIBU?si=k_Gz8hmFwM7J_k3TLesley's Bramble Ice Cream Recipe - https://www.bakedbyanintrovert.com/fresh-blackberry-ice-cream-no-churn/#recipe ★ Support this podcast ★

Andy Burnham has become the UK’s sixth prime minister in just 10 years. When it comes to energy and climate, Labour Party’s Burnham will inherit many of the same challenges of his predecessors: high energy prices, security of supply and an increasingly polarized debate over the UK’s ambitions to reach net zero. This week on Zero, Akshat Rathi sits down with Dale Vince, founder of Ecotricity and major donor to Labour, to ask can a new UK government make energy cheap? Zero is a production of Bloomberg Green.

Live backstage from the historic circle at the Grand Ole Opry, Jamie sits down with multi-platinum country artist, songwriter, and producer Niko Moon to celebrate the release of his deeply personal new album, ROOTS (out now via EMPIRE). Moving past the sun-drenched, coastal escapism of his previous hits like the triple-platinum anthem "GOOD TIME," Niko opens up like never before. He shares his true origin story, detailing his childhood family hardships, growing up in a Georgia trailer home with no electricity, and the hard-earned optimism that shapes both his life and his career today. In an industry often fixated on superficial milestones and commercial checkmarks, Niko details the exact turning point when he disengaged from the noise to focus on what truly matters: family, mental health, and passing on light to others through his nonprofit, the Happy Cowboy Foundation. __ Inside the Episode: The Practice of Joy: Niko discusses the deliberate mental conditioning required to intentionally choose joy daily, even when navigating life's darkest challenges. From the Trailer to the Circle: A powerful reflection on childhood poverty—what the young boy from Georgia would say to the man standing on the legendary stage of the Grand Ole Opry tonight. Ditching the Industry Checklist: Niko shares when and how he walked away from the superficial expectations of the music business to protect his peace and purpose. The Sound of ROOTS: A look inside the sonic blend of Texas, Georgia, and Nashville, featuring his rare Ray Charles interpolation on "GEORGIA (ROOTS)." __ Connect with Niko Moon: Learn more about the Happy Cowboy Foundation: https://happycowboyfoundation.org/ Connect with Jrodconcerts Media: Instagram: https://instagram.com/jrodconcertsmedia Website: https://www.jrodconcertsmedia.com __ Support The Show: Apple Pay: Whether you're shopping online for everyday needs or treating yourself, skip the hassle.

7/8/26Episode SummaryThe episode explains that a store's background color drives a subconscious snap judgment about a brand within about 50 milliseconds — before a visitor reads a single word — and that in 2026, Shopify stores are increasingly moving away from the long-standing default of pure white backgrounds.Why white is losing its grip. Pure white is clean, fast-loading, readable, and required by Amazon and Google Shopping — but it's become commoditized (making independent brands look like marketplace dropshippers) and causes eye strain on today's bright screens. The replacement trend is "elevated neutrals" — off-whites, warm creams, soft grays.Dark mode's advantages. Dark backgrounds create a "theater effect" that makes products pop, reduce eye fatigue for nighttime browsing, and save meaningful OLED battery life — but the episode warns against pure black (#000000), which causes black smearing and halation; deep charcoal like #121212 with softened text is the pro move.Brand-color backgrounds. High risk, high reward — Tiffany blue builds recognition and emotional immersion, but simultaneous contrast can distort how products look and drive returns.The recommended playbook. A hybrid approach: neutral backgrounds on collection grids where shoppers compare products, atmospheric color on product pages, delivered adaptively via the prefers-color-scheme CSS media query — with every change validated against WCAG 4.5:1 contrast requirements and A/B tested with an eye out for the novelty effect.Show LinksSabi Juice - https://sabijuice.com/Bixby Chocolate - https://bixbychocolate.com/Emerson Knives - https://www.emersonknives.com/Scorpion Percussion - https://scorpionpercussion.com/Authentic Vintage Posters - https://www.authenticvintageposters.com/Hexclad - https://hexclad.com/Google Battery Life Stat - https://wpswings.com/blog/dark-mode-in-ecommerce/WAVE Evaluation Tool - https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/wave-evaluation-tool/Video & Transcripthttps://jadepuma.com/blogs/the-shopify-solutions-podcast/episode-189-why-shopify-stores-are-ditching-white-backgrounds 

Moving away from insurance can create fear for dentists who worry patients will leave, the team will resist, or production will suffer. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt brings back Dr. Troy Schmedding, a private practice dentist in Walnut Creek, California, to explain how he transitioned out of insurance participation, rebuilt his practice around quality and communication, and created more control over how he practices. You will learn why team alignment matters, how to communicate insurance changes with patients, and why quality and customer service are essential for an out-of-network model. To learn how one dentist reclaimed control by ditching insurance and prioritizing quality, listen to Episode 1070 of The Best Practices Show!Main Takeaways:Dentists often struggle to leave insurance because of fear and self-limiting beliefs about whether their patients will stay.A practice can become less busy but more productive when it is well-managed and focused on quality care.Going out-of-network requires strong communication with the team and with patients.Patients respond better when the conversation focuses on quality of care rather than complaints about insurance companies.Billing insurance on behalf of patients remains an important customer service step after leaving insurance networks.Patient referrals can become stronger when existing patients value quality, service, and the practice model.A successful out-of-network practice depends on having a team that supports the doctor's vision and communicates well with patients.Snippets:00:00 Introduction to Dr. Troy Schmedding and the topic of moving away from insurance.01:09 Kirk introduces Dr. Schmedding and the Best Practices Show.04:15 Dr. Schmedding explains how insurance reimbursement cuts influenced his decision-making.06:51 Fear and self-limiting beliefs keep dentists from changing their insurance model.10:49 Team alignment is necessary before making major insurance changes.13:54 Referrals shift when patients understand and value the practice model.15:06 Dr. Schmedding shares his perspective on dentists' frustration with Delta Dental.17:54 Kirk and Dr. Schmedding discuss the future of out-of-network private practice.21:28 Dr. Schmedding explains what dentists often misunderstand about his practice model.23:00 Dr. Schmedding discusses his upcoming Smile Source Exchange presentation.24:54 Final thoughts & ClosingGuest Bio/Guest Resources:Dr. Troy Schmedding is a honors graduate of the Arthur A.

Smoking and going to that cool gig... think you left caving to peer pressure behind at high school? Scientist and social entrepreneur Todd Rose says we're still desperately doing our best to fit in, whether we realise it or not!In this chat with Fearne, Todd explains that it feels important to hold the ‘correct' opinions in the eyes of our social group.

Todd explains how to make sure your public self aligns with your public self so you're not living in a state of confusion and anxiety.Plus, why not speaking your mind has very real implications on your physical health, and how self-silencing is affecting everything from your friendships to how you vote.Todd's book, Collective Illusions, is out now.If you liked this episode of Happy Place, you might also like:Dr Julie SmithPatric GagneBreak free from people pleasing Hosted on Acast.
