This is a special episode as we hit the 10-year mark of the podcast. It's unbelievable, and it certainly doesn't feel like ten years have passed! It's a good point to stop and reflect on what we've done and how incredibly grateful I am to each person who has come on the show to share their stories and help us learn what perinatal mental health conditions look like and how we can offer more support. This information is what everyone needs before they even know they need it. I want to take this opportunity to reflect on how far the podcast has come and how far perinatal mental health education, advocacy, and understanding have advanced over the past ten years. This specialty has continued to grow within the context of how people find growth and healing. We've covered the basics and made people aware of the fundamentals of perinatal mental health, and the voices have only gotten louder in spreading vital information. Let's take a look! Show Highlights: A look back at the very beginning of Mom & Mind The shift in language from “maternal mental health” to “perinatal mental health” and “PMADs” to “PMDs.” The need for basic information remains, letting people know what to look for. Diving into people's lived experiences through their cultural, religious, ethnic, and marginalized lenses Our systems impact us, especially in how we become parents and parent our children. Deepening and widening the discussion to include everyone connected to the birth or loss of a child The myth of “the magical download” of parenthood People are more willing to talk about their shortcomings as new parents. Scary thoughts are what you might be feeling—not WHO you are. We understand SO much more about what people might be going through with perinatal mental health. Everyone deserves highly specialized care for these 100% treatable and very temporary conditions. The stigma of medication during pregnancy and postpartum, and how we've addressed it Your culture, identity, and lived experience are central to your healing. One final truth: “The transition to motherhood and parenthood is a profound psychological transition. Peer connection is essential.” Resources: Call the National Maternal Mental Health Hotline at 1-833-TLC-MAMA or visitcdph.ca.gov.

Ryan shares his time with Mina the Hollower, while John dives into Killzone Shadow Fall as part of his ongoing backlog adventures. The conversation moves into Nintendo's ongoing legal situation, as new analysis suggests the company may only receive a $30,000 payout in its Pokémon‑related case involving Palworld developer Pocketpair. From there, the guys tackle a broader industry question: whether rising hardware prices are pushing gaming closer to becoming a luxury hobby. The episode then shifts into showcase season, with full rundowns of Summer Game Fest 2026, the Xbox Games Showcase 2026, and the June 2026 Nintendo Direct. John and Ryan highlight the major reveals, announcements, and trailers across all three events, comparing how each platform approached its big summer moment.

Two Montreal police officers are suspended and fourteen others under scrutiny - after being accused of repeated "discriminatory and racist” acts against Black and Arab Montrealers. An active investigation is now underway. Police and city officials are promising to root out the problem and rebuild an already fragile public trust.Also: There is a long and deeply troubling history of forced and coerced sterilization in Canada. Since the early 20th Century, thousands of women and girls have been deprived of their ability to have children. Particularly Indigenous, Black and disabled women. Earlier this week, the House of Commons passed an act to amend the Criminal Code - which will soon make the practice a crime.And: Before fossil fuels, much of the world was powered by whale oil. Demand was so high, whaling nearly drove some species to extinction. Now, researchers are reading into the words of whalers from long ago, to get a better picture of the scale of that industry.Plus: Mark Carney in Ireland, Donald J. Trump's name removed from the Kennedy Centre, and more.

The Word of God doesn't exist to affirm us—it exists to transform us. In a digital culture that thrives on scrolling and passive consumption, it's dangerously easy to treat Scripture the same way: looking at the truth, seeing what needs to change, and immediately forgetting it.In this talk. Lux Digital Church welcomes special guest Pastor Stevie Flockhart from 901 Church. Diving into James 1:19–27, Pastor Stevie challenges the trap of passive faith. Using James' famous mirror metaphor and a highly relatable story about an expensive airport baggage disaster, he breaks down what it practically looks like to move from being a mere "hearer" of the Word to an active "doer" .**********
Chuck Todd opens with the grim news that the Iran conflict is hot again as both sides resume exchanging strikes — and his blunt assessment is that nothing has actually changed since Trump was begging for a deal a month ago. He argues Trump has mismanaged this war from the very beginning with no clear goal, that he and Israel started it with vastly different objectives, and that he stubbornly refuses to accept a deal that looks like the one Obama got even though that's the only realistic off-ramp available. The brutal truth, Chuck says, is that Trump can't airstrike his way to victory, and if he was never willing to commit ground troops, he never should have started the war in the first place — the Iranians now hold more leverage than the United States, and it's entirely Trump's fault that they do. He delivers one of his sharpest character indictments yet, arguing Trump "failed upwards" to the most powerful job on earth and is now half-assing his way through the presidency the same way he half-assed his way through life, while Vance and Rubio scramble to avoid any ownership of the war.With inflation rising for a third straight month, Chuck sees no path for any of this to improve before the midterms. But the heart of the episode is a deep, genuinely illuminating dive into a new Pew survey that Chuck calls possibly the best available tool for understanding the actual American electorate — one that shatters the illusion created by social media. The data reveals nine distinct political archetypes (three on the left, three in the middle, three on the right), that the ideological extremes make up only about 15% of the country and are the whitest segments, and that the loud, combative bases dominating online discourse aren't remotely close to a majority. The middle, he notes, is a full 38% of the electorate, with the center-left as the single largest group; the Reagan Republican coalition is measurably gone, reduced to just 11%; the civil war inside the American left is already underway with skeptical progressives who'll never vote Republican but may simply not vote at all; and the MAGA-religious right remains a fortress of reliable voters, with erosion showing up in exactly one place — younger voters. His takeaway is the one that should reshape how both parties think: the persuadable middle is repulsed most by the far left and far right, the party bases are precisely what cause the parties to struggle electorally, and the opportunity for independents has genuinely never been better — because what happens online simply is not reflective of who actually shows up to vote. Then, cultural critic Chuck Klosterman — author of But What If We're Wrong?, The Nineties, and now a new book simply titled Football — joins the Chuck Toddcast for a fascinating, genre-bending conversation that's part memoir, part sports analysis, and part thought experiment about how a singular American obsession will be remembered centuries from now. Klosterman frames the book as a "living obituary" for football, working from his signature premise that over enough time, almost everything fades until a single simplified narrative is all that survives — and that football, despite being the one true common denominator of the modern American experience (it overtook baseball as the most popular sport by the 1970s, even though people at the time didn't realize it), will almost certainly not remain central to the culture a few decades from now. He and Chuck explore how perception dramatically changes over time , how the internet has fundamentally altered our relationship with time itself, and why arguments against the internet today sound exactly like the arguments people once made against television. Klosterman, who only half-jokingly says his "beat" these days is simply reality, argues that we now consume social media on the working assumption that what we're seeing isn't real — a profound shift in how humans relate to information. The conversation winds through some genuinely original territory about why football works the way it does and what its eventual decline might look like. Klosterman argues football is a fundamentally cerebral sport with intense but widely dispersed moments of action (the Wall Street Journal famously found only 11 minutes of actual action in a three-hour broadcast), that its sheer complexity and total absence of free-flowing movement is exactly why it's never exported well, and that it nearly became a literal embodiment of American exceptionalism. He and Todd dig into whether the NFL can over-expand into a 12-month product, why football is the one American sport that could plausibly survive on pay-per-view, and how the league walks a razor's edge between the maximum physicality fans crave and the safety changes that are slowly, quietly trying to remove hitting from the game — even as the ever-present risk of injury is precisely what raises the stakes and makes it so engaging. There's a wonderful tangent on COVID and 9/11 as the two great timeline-dividing events of the modern era (one slow and shared globally, one sudden and strange), including Chuck's own reflection that the pandemic was unexpectedly a bonding experience with his kids. Klosterman closes by previewing his next book — an alternate history of rock and roll — and delivering a characteristically provocative argument that rock effectively ended as a meaningful art form in the 1990s, that having access to all the music ever recorded has paradoxically led people to listen to the same 600 songs, and that he genuinely regrets ever getting rid of his CD collection, because the day may come when streaming services are broken up and no longer contain all the music in the world.

In this final installment of our series, "For What It's Worth," Pastor Ernest Almond delivers a powerful, conviction-heavy message on what it truly means to pledge your allegiance to the Kingdom of God. Diving deep into Luke 16:10-15 and Matthew 4:1-11, this sermon exposes "Mammon" not just as money, but as an entire spiritual system designed to trade your eternal assignment for temporary comfort, convenience, and consumption From the dense fast-food corridors of our local neighborhoods to the subtle compromises we make in our weekly schedules, we are constantly being pressured to bow to the god of comfort. But true righteousness requires a line in the sand. If an investigator looked at your calendar, your bank statements, and your screen time from this past week, who would they conclude you are serving? It's time to move past lukewarm commitment, break the addiction to a "soft life," and anchor your covenant obedience to the One who already paid your ultimate debt!

ETP 218 is all about progression models. The whole conversation starts from one non-negotiable idea: eventually there has to be real, tangible progression. Most of the "models" people get excited about are really just different ways to make the process less mundane than running linear or double progression forever. And to be clear, LP and DP are still the GOAT. They're proven, time-tested, and they work. We break down what they actually are and why they've earned that status.The catch with all of these models is that they live and die by consistent form. Heavier weights or more reps with execution falling apart isn't progress. A big reason we like employing these models in the first place is that they tend to produce more consistent output and execution than LP/DP, where the only thing you're chasing is weight and reps. That consistency is a lot of why they're effective.From there we walk through the models we actually use and where each one fits.Covered in this episode:Why LP and DP are the proven foundation, and why everything else is built on top of themWave loading, including the 4/3/2 strength model and the 4-3-2-1-0 weekly RIR approach Bryan often runs, where the goal is to beat the same week in sequence so progression plays out over a five to six week windowBryan's current favorite: 2-week microcycles, alternating an intensity week (2 x 5-8 to 0-1 RIR) with a volume week (4-5 x 5-6 at 85-90% of the prior week's load)Rep goal progression, basically a more fun spin on double progression, hitting a total rep target across your sets before adding loadReverse pyramid and top set plus back-off work, where progression is driven mostly by the top set and the back-offs chase stimulusVolume progression, the original RP model, where workload climbs week to week before load goes up across the mesoDensity progression, doing the same work in less time, plus Aaron playing devil's advocate on whether efficiency gains actually confirm strength or hypertrophy progress or just imply itLoad cycling across longer time frames, meso to mesoMyo-rep and rest-pause progression, beating your total rep count session to sessionTimestamps:00:00:00 Episode Introduction and Personal Updates00:13:41 Refining Hypertrophy In-Person Seminar00:14:41 Goodlabs Discounted Private Bloodwork00:15:10 Diving into Progression Models00:22:39 Waveloading and Its Applications00:29:22 Set Structures and Rep Ranges00:31:44 Microcycle Training: Balancing Intensity and Volume00:34:28 Understanding Reps and Volume in Training00:36:45 The Benefits of Volume Weeks00:38:14 Rep Goal Progression: A Fun Approach00:39:19 Top Set Back Off Set: A Popular Training Method00:43:32 Exploring Pyramid Training: A Classic Approach00:47:54 Volume Progression: Pros and Cons00:52:31 Density Progression: Efficiency vs. Effectiveness00:58:08 Load Cycling: A Structured Approach to Progression01:02:38 Myo Reps: Time-Efficient Training Techniques Work 1:1 with Aaron ⬇️https://strakernutritionco.com/nutrition-coaching-apply-now/Done For You Client Check-In System for Coaches ⬇️https://strakernutritionco.com/macronutrient-reporting-check-in-template/Paragon Training Methods Programming ⬇️https://paragontrainingmethods.comFollow Bryan's Evolved Training Systems Programming ⬇️https://evolvedtrainingsystems.comFind Us on Social Media ⬇️IG | @Eat.Train.ProsperIG | @bryanboorsteinIG | @aaron_strakerYT | EAT TRAIN PROSPER PODCAST
