It's one of the most disturbing and bizarre murder cases to come out of Nevada in years. Former adult film actress Devyn Michaels is on trial for the murder and decapitation of Johnathan Willette — the father of her two daughters — while she was legally married to his adult son, Deviere Willette. Prosecutors say the motive was control: that Michaels feared Johnathan's attempts to reconnect with his children and move closer to her home, so she decided to eliminate him permanently. They claim she drove to his Henderson residence in the early morning hours of August 7, 2023, killed him, then tried to dissolve evidence with bleach and ammonia before hiding his belongings in her garage. His head has never been found. The defense tells an entirely different story. They argue that Deviere — not Devyn — had motive and opportunity, and that the physical nature of the crime suggests someone else. They point out that there's no murder weapon, no DNA evidence, and no direct forensic proof tying Devyn to the act itself. What's left is a trial built on data: GPS logs, surveillance footage, and human psychology. How does a family get this far gone? How does love twist itself into control — and control into violence? Join Tony Brueski as we break down the evidence, the timeline, and the fractured relationships behind one of Nevada's most shocking murder trials. Because this isn't just a courtroom drama — it's a portrait of obsession, identity, and the darkest edges of family power. #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #DevynMichaels #JohnathanWillette #TrueCrime #MurderTrial #NevadaCrime #LoveTriangle #CrimeStories #Podcast Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

BONUS: Flawless Execution — Translating Fighter Pilot Precision to Business Results In this powerful conversation, former fighter pilot Christian "Boo" Boucousis reveals how military precision translates into agile business leadership. We explore the FLEX model (Plan-Brief-Execute-Debrief), the critical difference between control-based and awareness-based leadership, and why most organizations fail to truly embrace iterative thinking. From Cockpit to Boardroom: An Unexpected Journey "I learned over time that it doesn't matter what you do if you're always curious, and you're always intentional, and you're always asking questions." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis Christian's path from fighter pilot to leadership consultant wasn't planned—it was driven by necessity and curiosity. After 11 years as a fighter pilot (7 in Australia, 4 in the UK), an autoimmune condition ended his flying career at age 30. Rather than accepting a comfy job flying politicians around, he chose entrepreneurship. He moved to Afghanistan with a friend and built a reconstruction company that grew to a quarter billion dollars in four years. The secret? The debrief skills he learned as a fighter pilot. By constantly asking "What are you trying to achieve? How's it going? Why is there a gap?" he approached business with an agile mindset before he even knew what agile was. This curiosity-driven, question-focused approach became the foundation for everything that followed. The FLEX Model: Plan-Brief-Execute-Debrief "Agile and scrum were co-created by John Sutherland, who was a fighter pilot, and its origins sit in the OODA loop and iteration. Which is why it's a circle." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis The FLEX model isn't new—fighter pilots have used this Plan-Brief-Execute-Debrief cycle for 60 years. It's the ultimate simple agile model, designed to help teams accelerate toward goals using the same accelerated learning curve the Air Force uses to train fighter pilots. The key insight: everything in this model is iterative, not linear. Every mission has a start, middle, and end, and every stage involves constant adaptation. Afterburner (the company Christian now leads as CEO) has worked with nearly 3,800 companies and 2.8 million people over 30 years, teaching this model. What's fascinating is that the DNA of agile is baked into fighter pilot thinking—John Sutherland, co-creator of Scrum, wrote the foreword for Christian's book "The Afterburner Advantage" because they share the same roots in the OODA loop and iterative thinking. Why Iterative Thinking Doesn't Come Naturally "Iterative thinking is not a natural human model. Most of the time we learn from mistakes. We don't learn as a habit." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis Here's the hard truth: agile as a way of working is very different from the way human beings naturally think. Business leadership models still hark back to Frederick Winslow Taylor's 1911 book on scientific management—industrial era leadership designed for building buildings, not creating software. Time is always linear (foundation, then structure, then finishing), and this shapes how we think about planning. Humans also tend to organize like villages with chiefs, warriors, and gatherers—hierarchical and political. Fighter pilots created a parallel system where politics exist outside missions, but during execution, personality clashes can't interfere. The challenge for business isn't the method—it's getting human minds to embrace iteration as a habit, not just a process they follow when forced. Planning: Building Collective Consciousness, Not Task Lists "Planning isn't all about sequencing actions—that's not planning. That's the byproduct of planning, which is collectively agreeing what good looks like at the end." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis Most people plan in their head or in front of a spreadsheet by themselves. That's not planning—that's collecting thoughts. Real planning means bringing everyone on the team together to build collective consciousness about what's possible. The plan is always "the best idea based on what we know now." Once airborne, everything changes because the enemy doesn't cooperate with your plan. Planning is about the destination, not the work to get there. Think about airline pilots: they don't tell you about traffic delays on their commute or maintenance issues. They say "Welcome aboard, our destination is Amsterdam, there's weather on the way, we'll land 5 minutes early." That's a brief—just the effect on you based on all their work. Most business meetings waste 55 minutes on backstory and 5 minutes deciding to have another meeting. Fighter pilots focus entirely on: What are we trying to achieve? What might get in the way? Let's go. Briefing: The 25-Minute Focus Window "You need 25 minutes of focus before your brain really focuses on the task. You program your brain for the mission at hand." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis The brief is the moment between planning and execution when the plan is as accurate as it'll ever get. It's called "brief" for a reason—it's really short. The team checks that everyone understands the plan in today's context, accounting for last-minute changes (broken equipment, weather, personnel changes). Then comes the critical part: creating the mission bubble. From the brief until mission end, there are no distractions, no notifications. If someone tries to interrupt a fighter pilot walking to the jet, the response is clear: "I'm in my mission bubble. No distractions." This isn't optional—research shows it takes 25 minutes of uninterrupted focus before your brain truly locks onto a task. Yet most business leaders expect constant availability, with notifications pinging every few minutes. If you need everyone to have notifications on to run your business, you're doing a really bad job at planning. Execution: Awareness-Based Leadership vs. Control-Based Leadership "The reason we have so many meetings is because the leader is trying to control the situation and own all the awareness. It's not humanly possible to do that." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis During execution, fighter pilots fly the plan until it doesn't work anymore—then they adapt. A mission commander might lead 70 airplanes, but can't possibly track all 69 others. Instead, they create "gates"—checkpoints where everyone confirms they're in the right place within 10 seconds. They plan for chaos, creating awareness points where the team is generally on track or not. The key shift: from control-based leadership (the leader tries to control everything) to awareness-based leadership (the leader facilitates and listens for divergences). This includes "subordinated leadership"—any of the four pilots in a formation can take the lead if they have better awareness. If a wingman calls out a threat the leader doesn't see, the immediate response is "Press! You take the lead." This works because they planned for it and have criteria. Business teams profess to want this kind of agile collaboration, but struggle because they haven't invested in the planning and shared understanding that makes fluid leadership transitions possible. Abort Criteria: Knowing When to Stop "We have this concept called abort criteria. If certain criteria are hit, we abort the mission. I think that's a massive opportunity for business." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis There are degrees of things going wrong: a little bit, a medium amount, and everything going wrong. When everything's going wrong, fighter pilots stop and turn around—they don't keep pressing a bad situation. This "abort criteria" concept is massively underutilized in business. Too often, teams press bad situations, transparency disappears, people stop talking, and everyone goes into survival mode (protect myself, blame others). This never happens with fighter pilots. If something goes wrong, they take accountability and make the best decision. The most potent team size is four people: a leader, deputy leader, and two wingmen. This small team size with clear roles and shared abort criteria creates psychological safety to call out problems and adapt quickly. The Retrospective Mindset: Not Just a Ritual "A retrospective isn't a ritual. It's actually a way of thinking. It's a cognitive model. If you approached everything as a retrospective—what are we trying to achieve? How's it going? Why is it not going where we want? What's the one action to get back on track?" — Christian "Boo" Boucousis The debrief—the retrospective—is the most important part of fighter pilot culture translated into agile. It's not just a meeting you have at the end of a sprint. It's a mindset you apply to everything: projects, relationships, personal development. Christian introduces "Flawless Leadership" built on three M's: Method (agile practices), Mindset (growth mindset developed through acting iteratively), and Moments (understanding when to show up as a people leader vs. an impact leader). The biggest mistake in technology: teams do retrospectives internally but don't include the business. They get a brief from the business, build for two months, come back, and the business says "What is this? This isn't what I expected." If they'd had the business in every scrum, every iteration, trust would build naturally. Everyone involved in the mission must be part of the planning, briefing, executing, and debriefing. Leading in the Moment: Three Layers of Leadership "Your job as a scrum master, as a leader—it doesn't matter if you're leading a division of people—is to be aware. And you're only going to be aware by listening." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis Christian breaks leadership into three layers: People Leadership (political, emotional, dealing with personalities and overwhelm), Impact Leadership (the agile layer, results-driven, scientific), and Leading Now (the reactive, amygdala-driven panic response when things go wrong). The mistake: mixing these layers. Don't try to be a people leader during execution—that's not the time. But if you're really good at impact leadership (planning, breaking epics into stories, getting work done), you become high trust and high credibility. People leadership becomes easier because success eliminates excuses. During execution, watch for individual traits and blind spots. Use one-on-ones with a retrospective mindset: "What does good look like for you? How do we get to where you're not frustrated?" When leaders aren't present—checking phones and watches during meetings—they lose people. Your job as a leader is to turn your ears on, facilitate (not direct), and listen for divergences others don't see. The Technology-Business Disconnect "Every time you're having a scrum, every time you're coming together to talk about the product, just have the business there with you. It's easy." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis One of the biggest packages of work Afterburner does: technology teams ask them to help build trust with the business. The solution is shockingly simple—include the business in every scrum, every planning session, every retrospective. Agile is a tech-driven approach, creating a disconnect. Technology brings overwhelming information about how hard they're working and problems they've solved, but business doesn't care about the past. They care about the future: what are you delivering and when? During the Gulf War, the military scaled this fighter pilot model to large-scale planning. Fighter pilots work with marines, special forces, navy, CIA agents—everyone is part of the plan. If one person is missing from planning, execution falls apart. If someone on the ground doesn't know how an F-18 works, the jet is just expensive decoration. Planning is about learning what everyone else does and how to support them best—not announcing what you'll do and how you'll do it. High-Definition Destinations: Beyond Goals "Planning is all about the destination, not the work to get there. Think about when you hop on an airplane—the pilot doesn't tell you the whole backstory. They say 'Welcome aboard, our destination is Amsterdam, there's weather on the way, we'll land 5 minutes early.' All you want is the effect on you." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis Christian uses the term "High-Definition Destinations" rather than goals. The difference is clarity and vividness. When you board a plane, you don't get the pilot's commute story or maintenance details—you get the destination, obstacles, and estimated arrival. That's communication focused on effect, not process. Most business communication does the opposite: overwhelming context, backstory, and detail, with the destination buried somewhere in the middle. The brief should always be: Here's where we're going. Here's what might get in the way. Let's go. This communication style—focused on outcomes and effects rather than processes and problems—transforms how teams align and execute. It eliminates the noise and centers everyone on what actually matters: the destination.

Step behind the curtain of one of the most ambitious new crime comics of the year. In this panel conversation, editor Shelly Bond, writer Lazlow, and artists David Lapham and Chris Anderson dig into the DNA of American Caper — a sharp, character-driven noir series built by creators who know how to craft worlds that hit hard. Writer Lazlow breaks down his creative process, including how he co-writes American Caper with longtime collaborator and Grand Theft Auto III co-creator Dan Houser, bringing that same mix of satire, danger, and grounded crime storytelling to the comics page. We cover the book's early development, the editorial shaping from Shelly Bond, and the unique push-and-pull between Lapham and Anderson as they construct the book's gritty visual identity. It's a full craft breakdown from four creators who live and breathe crime fiction.
The Alex Murdaugh case has reached its most critical moment yet: the South Carolina Supreme Court is now reviewing the final filings in his appeal, and both sides are delivering a completely opposite narrative of what happened in that courtroom. One side says the evidence was overwhelming. The other says the process was broken. The justices now have to decide which matters more. In this new Hidden Killers episode, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and legal analyst Eric Faddis examine whether the verdict was powered by solid facts or by a trial that couldn't withstand its own chaos. The prosecution argues everything lines up: Murdaugh's voice on the kennel video, his shifting accounts, his financial world collapsing around him — all pointing toward guilt. The defense counters with accusations that the trial was tainted from the inside: Clerk of Court Becky Hill's alleged comments to jurors, untested DNA, missing forensic work, and a flood of financial testimony they say “poisoned the pool” long before the jury deliberated. Tony and Eric explore what appellate courts really evaluate — not guilt or innocence, but integrity. Did the clerk's alleged words create prejudice? Were the financial crimes allowed to overwhelm the murder evidence? When does “harmless error” become harmful? And how much does media pressure play into what judges are willing to overturn? Beyond Murdaugh, the episode asks a larger question: What happens when a justice system has to evaluate itself? If the verdict stands, does that restore confidence — or just protect an institution's reputation? And if a new trial is ordered, does the public view it as fairness or failure? This appeal will define not just Alex Murdaugh's future, but how the public sees the courts moving forward. #HiddenKillers #AlexMurdaugh #TrueCrime #LegalBreakdown #TonyBrueski #MurdaughCase #SupremeCourtReview #EricFaddis #JusticeDebate #CourtAppeal Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

It's been nearly three years since Alex Murdaugh was convicted of murdering his wife Maggie and son Paul, a verdict that felt like the final chapter in a Southern empire built on generational power, corruption, and deceit. But now the case is back in the spotlight — because three final filings have landed in front of the South Carolina Supreme Court, and they paint two completely different realities about what happened inside that courtroom. In this episode of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and former prosecutor/defense attorney Eric Faddis dissect why this appeal matters far beyond whether Murdaugh pulled the trigger. The state insists the verdict is bulletproof: the kennel video placed him at the scene, his lies destroyed his credibility, and the motive was clear. Meanwhile, the defense argues the entire process was contaminated before it even began — with Clerk of Court Becky Hill allegedly influencing jurors, commenting on Murdaugh's demeanor, and later writing a book she financially benefited from. Add in untested DNA, missing gunshot residue analysis, and expert-pressure allegations, and the trial starts to look less like justice and more like a perfect storm of misconduct. Tony and Eric break down the real questions the Supreme Court must answer: Was the trial fair? Did the clerk's alleged comments prejudice the jury? Can a verdict stand if the process underneath it cracks? And what does it mean for public trust if a clerk who handled the jury is now facing her own criminal charges? From how jurors absorb financial-crime testimony, to whether “harmless error” can excuse missing forensic testing, to the psychology of high-profile verdicts and the pressure on courts to protect their own institutions — this episode asks whether justice was served, or simply performed. If the Court upholds the conviction, the case is over… until it isn't. If they grant a new trial, the system itself becomes the story. What do you think? Did the evidence overpower the errors — or did the errors overpower the verdict? #AlexMurdaugh #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #TrueCrime #MurdaughAppeal #BeckyHill #CourtSystem #EricFaddis #LegalAnalysis #JusticeDebate Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Barry Morphew case wasn't just about a missing wife and a husband under suspicion — it became a full-blown indictment of Colorado's justice system itself. When prosecutors first charged Barry Morphew with murdering his wife Suzanne in 2021, they promised a mountain of evidence and a story that would prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. What followed instead was a spectacular implosion of mismanagement, misconduct, and arrogance that ended with the case being dismissed, experts thrown out, and the lead district attorney ultimately disbarred by the Colorado Supreme Court. In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we pull apart the wreckage piece by piece — the missed discovery deadlines, the withheld DNA that pointed to another male profile, the public statements that violated ethics rules, and the chaos inside DA Linda Stanley's office that turned one of Colorado's highest-profile murder prosecutions into a national embarrassment. Now, with Suzanne Morphew's remains finally found and new evidence surfacing, the State has charged Barry Morphew again. But this time, they're not just fighting to convict him — they're fighting to restore credibility after their own spectacular collapse the first time around. We're not taking sides here. This isn't about guilt or innocence — it's about what happens when those sworn to uphold justice fail to meet the most basic standard of competence. Can a DA's office recover after destroying its own case? Can the public ever trust them again? Tony Brueski dives deep into the paper trail, the disciplinary rulings, and the ethical implosion that turned the first Barry Morphew case into a cautionary tale for every prosecutor in America. Because when justice gets this sloppy, it doesn't matter who's guilty — everyone loses. #HiddenKillers #BarryMorphew #SuzanneMorphew #LindaStanley #ColoradoJustice #TrueCrime #TonyBrueski #ProsecutorialMisconduct #DisbarredDA #JusticeSystem Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Alex Murdaugh's murder conviction was supposed to be the end of the story — but now the outcome of his trial is under review at the South Carolina Supreme Court, and the spotlight isn't just on the evidence… it's on the courthouse itself. In today's Hidden Killers episode, Tony Brueski and former prosecutor/defense attorney Eric Faddis tackle the most explosive element of the appeal: allegations that Clerk of Court Becky Hill may have influenced the jury, urged a quick verdict, commented on Murdaugh's body language, and then wrote a book she financially benefited from. One juror claims Hill whispered, “Watch him… don't be fooled.” The state says it doesn't matter. The defense says it absolutely does. Tony and Eric take listeners inside the legal and psychological weight of jury influence: What happens when a court official speaks to a juror about the defendant? Can a juror truly “un-hear” a remark from someone in authority? And how should the justices interpret Hill's later criminal charges — irrelevant noise, or evidence of a compromised system? The episode also digs into the evidence battle the appeal now centers on. Was this a murder trial supported by overwhelming proof — or a character trial overloaded with financial-crime testimony unrelated to the shootings? Were missing DNA tests, uncollected fingerprints, and absent gunshot residue analysis harmless mistakes… or constitutional failures? And when the public already picked a side long before the verdict, how much pressure do the justices feel to either protect the system's credibility or correct its mistakes? This appeal isn't just about Alex Murdaugh's freedom. It's about whether the justice system can still be trusted to police itself — or whether the courtroom became a stage where fairness took a back seat to outcome. #AlexMurdaugh #BeckyHill #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #MurdaughAppeal #JusticeSystem #CourtIntegrity #EricFaddis #CrimeDiscussion Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. It's world diabetes day! It is marked every year on 14 November, the birthday of Sir Frederick Banting, who co-discovered insulin along with Charles Best in 1922. WDD was created in 1991 by International Diabetes Federation (IDF) and the World Health Organization and became an official United Nations Day in 2006 with the passage of United Nations Resolution 61/225. There will be a ton of stuff in your feeds today and that's great! I'm going to keep this to a pretty normal in the news episode.. although I do have my own World Diabetes Day announcement – I want YOUR community commercials. You could have an ad for your event or your blog or your project right here! There's a post on the website explaining it all and I'll come back at the end of the episode and tell you more. XX The Primary Oral Insulin Trial (POInT) is the first large-scale clinical trial to test whether giving at-risk children daily oral insulin could prevent or delay type 1 diabetes (T1D). Conducted by researchers from Helmholtz Munich and the Technical University of Munich across five European countries, the study enrolled more than 1,000 children with a genetic risk for T1D. Results published in The Lancet show that while oral insulin did not prevent the development of islet autoantibodies—an early sign of diabetes—it was safe and well tolerated. Importantly, researchers found that some children who received oral insulin developed diabetes more slowly than those given a placebo, suggesting potential protective effects in certain genetic subgroups. Further analysis revealed that the response to treatment depended on the child's insulin gene variant. Children with genetic versions that raise diabetes risk appeared to benefit, showing delayed onset of the disease, while those without the risk variant did not. These findings point toward a future of personalized prevention, where genetic screening could help identify which children might benefit most from oral insulin. Researchers will continue following the participants until age 12 to assess long-term effects. The study marks a major milestone in decades of diabetes prevention research, highlighting both the promise and complexity of developing tailored, early interventions against type 1 diabetes. XX Joint US-Chinese research looking at generating new beta cells from stomach cells. Upon turning on the "genetic switch," the human stomach cells were converted to insulin-secreting cells within the mice and resembled pancreatic beta cells with respect to gene and protein expression. Encouragingly, when those experiments were done with diabetic mice, insulin secreted from the transformed human cells helped control blood sugar levels and ameliorated diabetes. The scientists hope that a similar approach can be taken to convert cells from a patient's own stomach into insulin-secreting cells directly within the body. Importantly, additional studies are needed to address if this approach is safe and effective to be used in patients. https://www.technologynetworks.com/cell-science/news/human-stomach-cells-tweaked-to-make-insulin-406694 XX A new study in Nature Metabolism may help explain why children born to mothers with type 1 diabetes are less likely to develop the disease early in life compared to those whose fathers or siblings have it. Researchers looked at nearly 2,000 mothers and their children and found that kids whose moms have type 1 diabetes show changes in their DNA that may actually help protect them. These aren't genetic mutations, but epigenetic changes — chemical tags that turn certain genes on or off. The study found these changes in genes tied to the immune system and type 1 diabetes risk, suggesting that a mother's condition during pregnancy can shape her child's immune response in a protective way. Scientists identified more than 500 areas of DNA where these changes occurred, many in regions that control how the body's immune system works. Most of the changes appeared to calm down the kind of overactive immune response that leads to type 1 diabetes. Researchers even created a "methylation score" to help measure this protective effect. They say the next step is to confirm these results in more diverse groups and figure out exactly how these DNA changes help prevent early diabetes. https://www.news-medical.net/news/20251110/Maternal-type-1-diabetes-may-protect-children-from-developing-the-disease.aspx XX A new study from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University reveals that sons born to mothers with type 1 diabetes may develop early vascular dysfunction—independently of metabolic health. The finding may help shape future strategies to prevent cardiovascular disease early in life. Children of women with type 1 diabetes are known to be at increased risk of developing cardiovascular diseases. This new study, published in Cell Reports Medicine, is the first to show that the risk is linked to early dysfunction in blood vessel cells in sons, even before any metabolic issues arise. The team is now investigating the long-term effects of maternal diabetes, with a particular focus on why sons seem to be affected earlier than daughters. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-11-sons-mothers-diabetes-early-vascular.html XX A new study presented at Kidney Week 2025 has shown that the drug finn-uh-near-own a nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid-receptor antagonist, significantly reduced albuminuria—a key marker of kidney damage—in people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). This is the first major breakthrough for this population in more than 30 years. Researchers found that patients taking finerenone saw a 25% average reduction in albuminuria compared to placebo, an improvement that suggests a lower long-term risk for dialysis or kidney transplant. The phase 3 FINE-ONE trial involved 242 adults with T1D and CKD, and results showed benefits as early as three months. The drug was generally well tolerated, with side effects similar to those seen in patients with type 2 diabetes, though mild hyperkalemia (high potassium levels) was slightly more common. Experts say the findings could change the way doctors treat kidney complications in type 1 diabetes, an area that hasn't seen new therapies since the early 1990s. Currently, treatment options rely on blood pressure and blood sugar management, along with renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitors. Finerenone, which is already approved for type 2 diabetes-related CKD, targets overactivation of a receptor that drives kidney damage. Based on these results, Bayer plans to seek FDA approval in 2026 for use in people with T1D and CKD. Researchers and clinicians alike are calling the study "groundbreaking," noting that it opens the door to future research on how finerenone might not just slow kidney decline—but possibly prevent it altogether. https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/finerenone-offers-hope-kidney-disease-type-1-diabetes-2025a1000uzi?form=login XX This week, Tandem Diabetes Care (Nasdaq:TNDM) announced a major milestone for its Mobi miniature durable insulin pump system. San Diego-based Tandem revealed that it received FDA approval for the Android version of its Mobi mobile app. Clearance brings Mobi — which the company describes as the world's smallest, durable automated insulin delivery system — to more users. The pump, which pairs with Tandem's Control-IQ+ algorithm, previously worked with iOS software. Tandem — one of the largest diabetes tech companies in the world — expects to begin a limited rollout next month, followed by full commercial availability in early 2026. This marks the latest milestone for the company, which continues to expand its offerings and widen its reach within the diabetes patient population. We had a great interview with Tandem on our previous episode, but as I said at the time, it was coming before their earnings call. So here's an update: The company plans to submit the tubeless mobi to the fda before the end of this year.. possible approval and shipping date is hoped for by middle of 2026. Trials for their fully closed loop next-generation algorithm which we tlkaed abou ton the show should be launched in 2026 The Sigi patch pump will be developed and launched as a next-generation version of the Mobi Great job by Dr. David ? Ahn – he posted on IG after getting a message from tandem CEO John Sheridan? 1. First, the Tandem X3 *is* still absolutely in development, contrary to my speculation In yesterday's video. As many of you appropriately pointed out, there is definitely a market for a 300 unit pump, a pump with a screen, and a pump that does not require smartphone control. So from our brief chat, the sense I got that is that the X3 would be more of a refresh of the X2 with newer components, such as a USB-C connector and better memory, rather than a total redesign from the ground up. In terms of timing, all I could get was that it was "not too far distant in the future," which could mean anything I guess, but at least it's still on the way! 2. Next up, he also reassured me that they are working closely with Dexcom to support the G7 15 Day sensor within the next few months. I suspected as much, but it's always good to hear confirmation. 3. Lastly, he did confirm that Tandem is far along in developing a Caregiver/Follow app to allow the remote viewing of glucose and insulin data from a Tandem pump. He explained that it will be based on Sugarmate, the popular diabetes data dashboard app that Tandem acquired back in Jun 2020. While I don't know if every feature will make it into the Tandem caregiver app, Sugarmate is well-liked for its highly customizable dashboard and highly configurable alerts. Sugarmate even has the option to send a text message or phone call for urgent lows. Regardless, a true follow/Caregiver app will be welcomed with open arms by all caregivers and Tandem users who use Libre 3 Plus. https://time.com/7318020/worlds-top-healthtech-companies-2025/ XX Senseonics submits Eversense 365 – their year long implantable CGM for a CE mark, European Approval and expect to launch there soon. Eversense will be integrated with the sequel twist pump – again I'm hearing soon but no timeline. Intersting to note that one year inseration was approved in the US just about a year ago, so the first patients will be having their CGMs changed out – for the first time – pretty soon. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/senseonics-q2-2025-sales-beat-ce-mark/ XX A confusing study out of Rutgers - these researcher say metformin reduces some of the key benefits normally gained from regular physical activity. These include improvements in blood vessel health, physical fitness, and the body's ability to regulate blood sugar. Since 2006, doctors have typically encouraged patients with elevated blood sugar levels to combine metformin with exercise, expecting that the two proven treatments would produce stronger results together. However, the new research suggests this may not be the case. In this study, Exercise alone improved vascular insulin sensitivity, meaning blood vessels responded better to insulin and allowed more blood flow to muscles. This matters because insulin's ability to open blood vessels helps shuttle glucose out of the bloodstream and into tissues, lowering blood sugar after meals. But when metformin was added, the improvements shrank. The drug also diminished gains in aerobic fitness and reduced the positive effects on inflammation and fasting glucose. The findings don't mean people should stop taking metformin or exercising, Malin said. Instead, it raises urgent questions for doctors about how the two treatments can be combined and the need for close monitoring. Malin hopes future research will uncover strategies that preserve the benefits of both. https://scitechdaily.com/popular-diabetes-drug-metformin-may-cancel-out-exercise-benefits-study-warns/ XX XX https://www.medtechdive.com/news/Revvity-Sanofi-diabetes-test-Kihealth-seed-round/802133/ XX Dexcom recalled an Android app for its G6 glucose sensor due to a software problem that could cause the app to terminate unexpectedly. The issue could cause users to miss alarms, alerts or notifications related to estimated glucose values, according to a Food and Drug Administration database entry posted Oct. 30. The glucose sensor and the app are still available, but Dexcom required users to update the app to a new version. Dexcom began the recall on Aug. 28.

Tidepool will pair biometric data from Oura Ring – sleep, activity, heart rate, temperature trends, and menstrual cycles – with diabetes device data, including continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) and insulin pumps. The result will provide researchers with an unprecedented dataset to accelerate the development of new clinical guidelines, next-generation diabetes technology, and personalized care models. Recruitment is expected to launch in early 2026 through an IRB-approved study. By opting in to this study, participants consent to sharing their data with Tidepool's Big Data Donation Project, where data is de-identified and, with participant consent, shared with academics, researchers, and industry innovators to accelerate diabetes research. https://aijourn.com/tidepool-collaborates-with-oura-to-advance-inclusive-diabetes-research-through-wearables/ XX Eli Lilly launches two new clinical trials for baricitinib. These phase 3 trials will investigate whether the drug can delay T1D onset or progression and will open for recruitment soon. Baricitinib has the potential to extend the "honeymoon period" of T1D, meaning that it could preserve remaining insulin-producing beta cells earlier in disease progression. More beta cells mean better blood sugar management—and potentially reduced long-term complications. JAK inhibitors, including baricitinib, are already FDA-approved for other autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, alopecia, and more. JAK signaling pathways are associated with overactive immune responses, so blocking this pathway may turn down the immune response. The phase 2 Breakthrough T1D-funded BANDIT study was key in showing that this drug is safe and effective in T1D. Importantly, baricitinib is a once-daily oral pill—meaning its use is simple and easy. https://www.breakthrought1d.org/news-and-updates/two-new-trials-baricitinib-to-delay-t1d/ XX Insulet is taking diabetes awareness into the workplace.

The guidance, issued in a cable the State Department sent to embassy and consular officials and examined by KFF Health News, directs visa officers to deem applicants ineligible to enter the U.S. for several new reasons, including age or the likelihood they might rely on public benefits. The guidance says that such people could become a "public charge" — a potential drain on U.S. resources — because of their health issues or age. The cable's language appears at odds with the Foreign Affairs Manual, the State Department's own handbook, which says that visa officers cannot reject an application based on "what if" scenarios, Wheeler said. The guidance directs visa officers to develop "their own thoughts about what could lead to some sort of medical emergency or sort of medical costs in the future," he said. "That's troubling because they're not medically trained, they have no experience in this area, and they shouldn't be making projections based on their own personal knowledge or bias."

(NASDAQ: DXCM), the global leader in glucose biosensing, today unveiled 16 new diabetes advocates to represent people living with diabetes globally as part of Dexcom's World Diabetes Day campaign. The advocates – ranging from ages six to 68, spanning various types of diabetes, and hailing from four continents and five countries – were selected from 1,000 open call submissions based on their experiences advocating for people with diabetes in their communities. While each person's experience with diabetes is unique, they share a common passion for advocacy – and use of Dexcom's glucose biosensing technology. "Through advocacy, I strive to show others, especially children and newly diagnosed patients, that diabetes is not a limitation but an opportunity to grow stronger, inspire resilience and pursue ambitious goals," said Maria Alejandra Jove Valerio, one of Dexcom's new advocates. "What began as a diagnosis at age seven has grown into a lifelong mission to uplift others." This effort represents the first time Dexcom has sourced voices from the broader diabetes community specifically for its World Diabetes Day campaign, reinforcing Dexcom's history of and commitment to giving real people with diabetes a platform to share their story on a global stage. Through engaging, editorial-style portraits and deeply personal stories, the campaign highlights each advocate's personal experience with diabetes, what misconceptions about diabetes they'd like to dispel and how they want to inspire others with diabetes to discover what they're made of. To prepare for the spotlight, the group of advocates met in Los Angeles for a World Diabetes Day photoshoot which included a surprise visit from Grammy-nominated artist, actor, producer and Dexcom Warrior Lance Bass and author, producer, actress and Stelo*Ambassador Retta. This visit offered the advocates an opportunity to exchange stories and personal perspectives on the meaning of diabetes advocacy and how they live it each day. Behind the lens at the shoot was another member of the diabetes community—photographer Tommy Lundberg who lives with Type 1 diabetes. "Directing this photoshoot was nothing short of inspiring. Each of these advocates has a unique an XX On what would have been the 100th birthday of its visionary founder Alfred E. Mann, MannKind Corporation (Nasdaq: MNKD), in partnership with Alfred E. Mann Charities and The Diabetes Link, announced the launch of the Centennial Al Mann Scholarship. The new program will distribute $100,000 in scholarship funds to support at least 10 young adult students living with diabetes as they pursue higher education in life sciences. Launched in Diabetes Awareness Month, the scholarship program honors Alfred E. Mann's enduring legacy of innovation, philanthropy, and his lifelong commitment to improving the quality of human life through medical advancement. Deeply passionate about giving back, Mr. Mann believed that his success should continue to serve humanity long after his passing, a belief that lives on through this initiative. Each scholarship recipient will be awarded up to $10,000, distributed in annual installments of $2,500 throughout the course of their studies. Depending on the length of their degree program, recipients may receive between two and four installments (up to the full $10,000 per student). The first awards will be made for the 2026 academic year. "Al Mann dedicated his life to helping people with serious medical conditions live longer, healthier lives. This scholarship is a reflection of that spirit," said Michael Castagna, PharmD, Chief Executive Officer of MannKind Corporation. "By supporting students living with diabetes who are pursuing careers in the life sciences and adjacent fields, we're honoring Al's legacy and investing in the future of innovation and care. This program is about giving back to the community we serve and empowering the next generation to carry forward Al's mission of making a meaningful difference in people's lives." Alfred E. Mann Charities and MannKind will partner with The Diabetes Link to launch the program to serve young adults (aged 18-22) living with either type 1 or type 2 diabetes with their higher education goals. Those eligible will include incoming freshmen and current students pursuing 2- or 4-year degrees. The application window will open in early 2026, and for those interested in receiving notifications, an early interest form is available. More information about the scholarship will be shared on thediabeteslink.org. "We're honored to partner with MannKind to expand access to higher education for young adults with diabetes," said Manuel Hernández, Chief Executive Officer of The Diabetes Link. "At a time when the cost of college continues to rise, this scholarship helps ease the financial burden and carries forward the spirit of Al Mann, whose vision and legacy continue to inspire us." Mr. Mann was MannKind's Chairman of the Board from 2001 until his passing in February 2016 and served as Chief Executive Officer from November 2003 until January 2015. Driven by a desire to improve lives and fill unmet medical needs, for more than six decades he founded 17 companies and developed breakthrough medical devices, including insulin pumps, cochlear implants, cardiac pacemakers and retinal prostheses. In 1997, Mr. Mann saw the potential of a dry powder insulin formulation to change the way diabetes is treated and invested nearly $1 billion to help bring Afrezza® (insulin human) Inhalation Powder to market.

Could a pandemic business-plan lesson for a bored kid spark the next breakout fast-casual brand?This episode moves fast — because Rob Gresham's career has never slowed down. Chris Ressa sits with the restaurant veteran who went from washing dishes at 15 to helping architect the early operational engine behind CAVA's meteoric growth from zero to 80 stores.Rob shares the wild ride: running a steakhouse kitchen as a teenager, getting recruited by Chipotle to fix troubled locations, learning the business side under industry giants, and joining CAVA before it was a household name — building systems, opening markets, and helping scale a brand that eventually went public.Then the pandemic hit. Consulting work vanished. His son was bored. So Rob turned a homeschool project into something much bigger: a business plan for a scratch-made, allergen-conscious chicken concept. When it came time to name it, Rob's son delivered the winner: Isaac's — inspired by Isaac Newton, who invented calculus and discovered gravity while quarantined during the plague. “He changed the world in quarantine,” his son said. “You created a restaurant. Name it Isaac's.”Today, Isaac's Poultry Market has two booming locations, a cult following, and the DNA of a future fast-casual standout.

The Alex Murdaugh case has reached its most critical moment yet: the South Carolina Supreme Court is now reviewing the final filings in his appeal, and both sides are delivering a completely opposite narrative of what happened in that courtroom. One side says the evidence was overwhelming. The other says the process was broken. The justices now have to decide which matters more. In this new Hidden Killers episode, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and legal analyst Eric Faddis examine whether the verdict was powered by solid facts or by a trial that couldn't withstand its own chaos. The prosecution argues everything lines up: Murdaugh's voice on the kennel video, his shifting accounts, his financial world collapsing around him — all pointing toward guilt. The defense counters with accusations that the trial was tainted from the inside: Clerk of Court Becky Hill's alleged comments to jurors, untested DNA, missing forensic work, and a flood of financial testimony they say “poisoned the pool” long before the jury deliberated. Tony and Eric explore what appellate courts really evaluate — not guilt or innocence, but integrity. Did the clerk's alleged words create prejudice? Were the financial crimes allowed to overwhelm the murder evidence? When does “harmless error” become harmful? And how much does media pressure play into what judges are willing to overturn? Beyond Murdaugh, the episode asks a larger question: What happens when a justice system has to evaluate itself? If the verdict stands, does that restore confidence — or just protect an institution's reputation? And if a new trial is ordered, does the public view it as fairness or failure? This appeal will define not just Alex Murdaugh's future, but how the public sees the courts moving forward. #HiddenKillers #AlexMurdaugh #TrueCrime #LegalBreakdown #TonyBrueski #MurdaughCase #SupremeCourtReview #EricFaddis #JusticeDebate #CourtAppeal Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

It's been nearly three years since Alex Murdaugh was convicted of murdering his wife Maggie and son Paul, a verdict that felt like the final chapter in a Southern empire built on generational power, corruption, and deceit. But now the case is back in the spotlight — because three final filings have landed in front of the South Carolina Supreme Court, and they paint two completely different realities about what happened inside that courtroom. In this episode of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and former prosecutor/defense attorney Eric Faddis dissect why this appeal matters far beyond whether Murdaugh pulled the trigger. The state insists the verdict is bulletproof: the kennel video placed him at the scene, his lies destroyed his credibility, and the motive was clear. Meanwhile, the defense argues the entire process was contaminated before it even began — with Clerk of Court Becky Hill allegedly influencing jurors, commenting on Murdaugh's demeanor, and later writing a book she financially benefited from. Add in untested DNA, missing gunshot residue analysis, and expert-pressure allegations, and the trial starts to look less like justice and more like a perfect storm of misconduct. Tony and Eric break down the real questions the Supreme Court must answer: Was the trial fair? Did the clerk's alleged comments prejudice the jury? Can a verdict stand if the process underneath it cracks? And what does it mean for public trust if a clerk who handled the jury is now facing her own criminal charges? From how jurors absorb financial-crime testimony, to whether “harmless error” can excuse missing forensic testing, to the psychology of high-profile verdicts and the pressure on courts to protect their own institutions — this episode asks whether justice was served, or simply performed. If the Court upholds the conviction, the case is over… until it isn't. If they grant a new trial, the system itself becomes the story. What do you think? Did the evidence overpower the errors — or did the errors overpower the verdict? #AlexMurdaugh #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #TrueCrime #MurdaughAppeal #BeckyHill #CourtSystem #EricFaddis #LegalAnalysis #JusticeDebate Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Alex Murdaugh's murder conviction was supposed to be the end of the story — but now the outcome of his trial is under review at the South Carolina Supreme Court, and the spotlight isn't just on the evidence… it's on the courthouse itself. In today's Hidden Killers episode, Tony Brueski and former prosecutor/defense attorney Eric Faddis tackle the most explosive element of the appeal: allegations that Clerk of Court Becky Hill may have influenced the jury, urged a quick verdict, commented on Murdaugh's body language, and then wrote a book she financially benefited from. One juror claims Hill whispered, “Watch him… don't be fooled.” The state says it doesn't matter. The defense says it absolutely does. Tony and Eric take listeners inside the legal and psychological weight of jury influence: What happens when a court official speaks to a juror about the defendant? Can a juror truly “un-hear” a remark from someone in authority? And how should the justices interpret Hill's later criminal charges — irrelevant noise, or evidence of a compromised system? The episode also digs into the evidence battle the appeal now centers on. Was this a murder trial supported by overwhelming proof — or a character trial overloaded with financial-crime testimony unrelated to the shootings? Were missing DNA tests, uncollected fingerprints, and absent gunshot residue analysis harmless mistakes… or constitutional failures? And when the public already picked a side long before the verdict, how much pressure do the justices feel to either protect the system's credibility or correct its mistakes? This appeal isn't just about Alex Murdaugh's freedom. It's about whether the justice system can still be trusted to police itself — or whether the courtroom became a stage where fairness took a back seat to outcome. #AlexMurdaugh #BeckyHill #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #MurdaughAppeal #JusticeSystem #CourtIntegrity #EricFaddis #CrimeDiscussion Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

There's a rising chorus of voices - some hostile, others simply misinformed - claiming that modern Jews aren't the same people God called His own in Scripture. In this episode, we sit down with Messianic teacher Mottel Baleston to dismantle the Khazar conspiracy and explore the deeper theological question behind it: Are the Jewish people of today truly the covenant people of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob? Baleston traces the Jewish story through Scripture, history, and even modern genetics to show that God's promises have never been revoked. The Jewish people remain central to His plan of redemption, not as spiritual relics, but as living proof that God keeps His word. This isn't just about disproving bad history - it's about recovering biblical clarity for the Church and real love for Israel. Key Takeaways The Khazar theory is a debunked 20th-century myth rooted in antisemitism, not scholarship. Scripture defines Jewish identity through Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob - not conspiracy or culture. There have always been Jews in the Land of Israel - always. Modern DNA studies (Stanford & Wayne State) confirm genetic continuity with ancient Israel. The myth that “the Church replaced Israel” contradicts Romans 11, where Paul warns Gentile believers not to boast. Being “chosen” is not about superiority - it's about responsibility to reveal God's glory to the nations. Every believer has a calling: to reject antisemitism and stand with God's eternal covenant people.

The Alex Murdaugh case has reached its most critical moment yet: the South Carolina Supreme Court is now reviewing the final filings in his appeal, and both sides are delivering a completely opposite narrative of what happened in that courtroom. One side says the evidence was overwhelming. The other says the process was broken. The justices now have to decide which matters more. In this new Hidden Killers episode, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and legal analyst Eric Faddis examine whether the verdict was powered by solid facts or by a trial that couldn't withstand its own chaos. The prosecution argues everything lines up: Murdaugh's voice on the kennel video, his shifting accounts, his financial world collapsing around him — all pointing toward guilt. The defense counters with accusations that the trial was tainted from the inside: Clerk of Court Becky Hill's alleged comments to jurors, untested DNA, missing forensic work, and a flood of financial testimony they say “poisoned the pool” long before the jury deliberated. Tony and Eric explore what appellate courts really evaluate — not guilt or innocence, but integrity. Did the clerk's alleged words create prejudice? Were the financial crimes allowed to overwhelm the murder evidence? When does “harmless error” become harmful? And how much does media pressure play into what judges are willing to overturn? Beyond Murdaugh, the episode asks a larger question: What happens when a justice system has to evaluate itself? If the verdict stands, does that restore confidence — or just protect an institution's reputation? And if a new trial is ordered, does the public view it as fairness or failure? This appeal will define not just Alex Murdaugh's future, but how the public sees the courts moving forward. #HiddenKillers #AlexMurdaugh #TrueCrime #LegalBreakdown #TonyBrueski #MurdaughCase #SupremeCourtReview #EricFaddis #JusticeDebate #CourtAppeal Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

On this thought-provoking episode of Quite Frankly, Frankie Val welcomes Dr. Chris Cormier, a pioneering chiropractor and founder of the Nerve Health Institute, for a deep dive into the mysterious intelligence of the human body. Together they explore quantum neurology, brain–body reconnection, the power of frequency and light, and how emotional, physical, and environmental stresses silently “disconnect” our cellular wiring. Dr. Chris shares jaw-dropping stories, from paralysis reversed to chronic pain dissolved, and explains his OWL Method of oxygen, water, and light, plus the groundbreaking frequency tools he uses to restore function. The conversation ranges from cellular communication to trauma, DNA inheritance, psychic stress, protection from energy drains, and why modern medicine often overlooks the body's self-healing blueprint. Frankie ties it all together with personal reflections, community insight, and open lines with callers navigating their own healing journeys. A rich, fascinating, and at times mind-bending exploration of how the body really works...and how much potential we still haven't tapped.
A series of events are being held in Paris to commemorate the tenth anniversary of the worst attacks on French soil in modern history. The Islamist terror attacks, in which 130 people died, began at the Stade de France with three explosions caused by suicide bombers. They then spread to restaurants, cafes and bars, and to the Bataclan theatre where 90 concertgoers were killed. Also: new figures show that the world's burning of fossil fuels is this year set to release more carbon dioxide than ever before. Climate scientists say that efforts to cut emissions are moving too slowly to meet international targets. But a growth in renewables is giving hope that the world's warming trend can still be curbed. What new DNA analysis tells us about Adolf Hitler. A swatch of fabric with the Nazi leader's blood was taken from the sofa on which he killed himself and apparently reveals that he suffered from a genetic disorder that stunts normal puberty.

Megan McDonald was just 20 years old when she was found brutally beaten to death on a quiet road in Wallkill, New York. The daughter of a retired NYPD detective, Megan's murder shocked her community and left investigators searching for answers. Her car was found abandoned. There was no robbery, no sexual assault, and no arrests for more than two decades.Behind the scenes, detectives focused on one man: her ex-boyfriend, Edward Holley. He owed Megan thousands of dollars and was reportedly angry after she ended their relationship. Prosecutors claim jealousy and money were his motive, linking him to the crime through phone records, witness statements, and DNA.But the case is far from over. Holley's defense points to another ex, Pauly Simpson, who spoke to Megan the night she was killed. Add in a dead suspect, political pressure, and a mistrial after twenty-two years, and the truth becomes even harder to see.Will Megan's family ever find peace, or will her case remain one of New York's most frustrating unsolved murders?Follow True Crime Recaps for the stories that prove time does not always bring justice.

What if the reason you keep saying "I'm fine" isn't about denial or stubbornness—but about your nervous system being programmed to avoid looking at problems because looking feels too dangerous? In this mini episode, Dr. Aimie Apigian explores the powerful story Dr. Tom O'Bryan shared about Ray—a beloved janitor who said "I'm fine" for three years until the day he finally agreed to testing, pulled over on his way home, and died. This tragic story reveals something critical about trauma: avoidance isn't just psychological, it's a biological survival response. And it's creating a dangerous feedback loop where the very act of avoiding health problems generates more cellular damage through oxidative stress. This episode unpacks why trauma makes us afraid to look at our health, how this avoidance creates the exact biology that makes our problems worse, and most importantly—how to break free from the "I'm fine syndrome" through baby steps and biology repair. In this episode you'll hear more about: The "I'm fine syndrome": How Ray's story illustrates the deadly cost of health avoidance, and why so many people refuse testing even when symptoms are clear—it's not about money or time, it's about fear The first step of trauma: Understanding that avoidance is actually Step 1 of the body's instinctual trauma response (the startle), where blocking our threat assessment tells our body danger is real and escalates the survival response The oxidative damage cascade: Dr. Tom's powerful mousetrap analogy—976,000 mousetraps on a football field, one ping pong ball creating a cascade reaction of "pop, pop, pop"—exactly what's happening inside your cells when you avoid addressing health problems The avoidance-damage feedback loop: How saying "I'm fine" while avoiding health assessments creates more oxidative stress, which damages cells and DNA, which creates more danger signals, which makes you want to avoid even more—a vicious cycle driving disease development Why glyphosate matters for your future family: The shocking research showing 74% of men at fertility centers have glyphosate in their blood, with 300% higher levels in their semen, causing oxidative damage to sperm DNA that leads to 40% increased miscarriage rates and contributes to the autism epidemic (1 in 12 boys in California) The trauma-toxin connection: How stored trauma and toxic chemicals create the same biology—both generate oxidative stress that damages your mitochondria, immune system, and DNA, which is why trauma and toxins always go together as "sisters" or "best friends" Base hits win the ball game: Dr. Tom's strategy for men (and everyone) who feel overwhelmed—allocate one hour per week to learn about ONE health topic, make ONE change, and watch how baby steps transform your health in six months without trying to hit home runs The essential supplements for oxidative stress: What Dr. Tom takes when flying (GS packs with 22 nutrients) and what Dr. Aimie uses (vitamin C, NAC, and injectable NAD) to combat radiation exposure and cellular damage from travel and daily life The Total Tox Burden and Oxidative Stress Profile: The two tests everyone should know about to assess their cellular damage and toxic load before trying to start a family—and why being proactive prevents a lifetime of grief Why "I'm fine" is actually "I'm frozen": Understanding that health avoidance is your nervous system's way of protecting you from feeling powerless, but recognizing this pattern is the first step to building the courage to look and take action The three phases of safe detoxification: Why you must resource your body first, open drainage pathways second, and only then use active binders—jumping straight to celery juice or fasting can actually retraumatize your system The antioxidant repair toolkit: Starting with the fundamentals (vitamin C at 1,000mg, selenium at 200mcg, NAC at 2,000mg daily) plus lifestyle tools like red-light therapy, outdoor morning walks, colorful fruits and vegetables, and optimizing sleep in complete darkness The energy to leave toxic relationships: Why people can't leave toxic environments until they have the biological energy to do so—supporting the body's detoxification and energy production creates the capacity to clear out emotional toxins too 77% and 1 in 12: The devastating statistics that should wake us up—77% of military-age Americans are ineligible to serve due to obesity or cognitive decline, and 1 in 12 boys in California are diagnosed on the autism spectrum by age four, both driven by our toxic environment and the biology of trauma Your body isn't broken—it's trying to protect you from the pain of looking at what feels dangerous. But here's the truth: every moment you avoid looking at your health while saying "I'm fine," you're accumulating more oxidative damage. You're literally rusting from the inside. The good news? You don't have to take the whole mountain in one step. Baby steps—or as Dr. Tom says, base hits—win the ball game. Start with one hour a week. Start with basic antioxidant support. Start with getting curious instead of afraid. Your body has been waiting for you to look with compassion instead of fear.

This episode of Integrative You Radio dives deep into the misunderstood world of parasites, specifically hookworm, and their role in chronic gut issues like Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and mysterious symptoms like anemia, muscle wasting, and hemorrhoids. Dr. Nicole Rivera breaks down the difference between classic diagnoses and the often-overlooked root causes, sharing real client stories and practical advice for anyone feeling stuck or misdiagnosed. The conversation is honest, a little gritty, and designed to empower listeners to ask better questions, seek out more precise testing, and challenge the status quo in conventional and functional medicine. #IntegrativeYouRadio #RootCauseMedicine #ParasiteAwareness #CrohnsHealing #UlcerativeColitis #FunctionalMedicine #GutHealth #HookwormTruth #HealthEmpowerment #TestDontGuess #WellnessPodcast #RealRawHealing 3 Key Takeaways: Root Cause Over Labels: Many chronic gut issues (Crohn's, ulcerative colitis, anemia, muscle wasting) may actually be linked to parasites like hookworm—not just the standard diagnoses. Investigating root causes, not just treating symptoms, is essential for true healing. Testing Matters: Conventional stool tests often miss parasites due to how quickly they break down after leaving the body. Blood, urine, and DNA testing can be more reliable for uncovering hidden infections. Empowerment Through Knowledge: Understanding the difference between hemorrhoids and deeper inflammatory issues—and knowing what to look for—arms you with the right questions and helps you advocate for your own health journey. Quotes: “You have to get rid of that more foundational issue before you're going to be successful with getting rid of the rest.” “I'm not telling you that hookworm is the only cause of Crohn's or ulcerative colitis, but I am telling you that it is worth it to investigate if that is the foundational reason why you have that condition in the first place.” Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube Apple Spotify 2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

In this episode of the Epigenetics Podcast, we talked with Anders Sejr Hansen from MIT about his work on the impact of 3D genome structures on gene expression, the roles of proteins like CTCF and cohesin, and advanced techniques like Region Capture Micro-C for mapping genome organisation. Dr. Sejr Hansen introduces his research focusing on the relationship between three-dimensional genome structure and function, specifically how these structures can influence gene expression. He elaborates on the importance of transcription factors and the role of looping structures in gene regulation, emphasizing the implications of his work for understanding gene functionality in the context of both development and disease. The conversation then shifts to discussing loop extrusion and the factors affecting loop stability, primarily CTCF and cohesin. Dr. Sejr Hansen highlights the dynamics of these proteins' binding interactions and how their speeds challenge the notion of stable looping structures in the genome. With a keen interest in CTCF's role, he explains how the protein interacts with DNA and the mechanistic aspects of transcription factor movement, alluding to research findings that reveal that CTCF and cohesin tend to form clusters which may play vital roles in establishing chromatin structure. As the interview progresses, Dr. Sejr Hansen details his transition to leading his own lab at MIT, emphasizing the continuation of his earlier work while expanding into new methodologies for studying chromatin. He underscores the importance of understanding not just the static structures of DNA interactions, but the dynamic nature of these relationships and how they influence gene expression. His lab's recent focus has included using advanced imaging techniques to assess the dynamics of chromatin interactions more precisely. The discussion then touches on specific findings from Dr. Sejr Hansen's lab regarding the relationship between genome organization and double-strand break repair mechanisms. He emphasizes how the repair machinery can affect chromatin structure and underscores the essential role of cohesin in facilitating effective double-strand break repair by keeping broken DNA ends in proximity. He suggests that loop extrusion might help prevent genetic material from diffusing too far apart and improve the efficiency of repair. Dr. Sejr Hansen also discusses innovations in genome mapping techniques, particularly the development of Region Capture Micro-C, which facilitates deeper insights into the three-dimensional organization of the genome. This method allows researchers to achieve significantly higher resolution in their analyses compared to traditional 3D genomics techniques like Hi-C. He outlines the technical process and the implications of their findings, especially regarding enhancer-promoter interactions and the surprisingly promiscuous nature of these relationships.

What if secret societies have been controlling the world from the shadows since the dawn of civilization? In this explosive interview of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Richard B. Spence — Professor Emeritus of History at the University of Idaho, expert on espionage, secret societies, and occultism, and co-host of the hit podcast Strange As It Seems — pulls back the curtain on the hidden organizations that may have shaped history, politics, and even the founding of the United States itself. Dr. Spence breaks down the benefits of being in a secret society (and why you should care, even if you'd never join one), whether ancient secret orders have influenced the rise and fall of empires, how modern politics is subtly manipulated by groups we don't even realize exist, and the psychological and mystical appeal that keeps these societies alive. He discusses whether secret societies help dangerous leaders rise to power, including shocking theories around Hitler's rise, the true definition of "the occult", why many secret orders are accused of Satan worship or dark rituals, the most active and influential secret societies today, and how new ones are forming online in the digital age. Dr. Richard B. Spence also reveals: - Surprising parallels between ancient orders and modern Greek life (fraternities and sororities) - Origins and influence of the Freemasons: were the Founding Fathers truly Freemasons, and what ideals did they embed into this country's DNA? - How secret societies evolve, and why some are actually designed as self-improvement programs - Why these organizations can become “petri dishes for nefarious actions”, sparking revolutions and even government overthrows - Why these groups have historically been male-dominated, and the surprising stories of female and even child secret societies - How intelligence agencies may manufacture conspiracy theories as tools of psychological warfare - Difference between misinformation vs. disinformation, and how each is weaponized - Are modern day government agencies like the CIA really just secret societies with better branding? - Fine line between secret societies, cults, and religions, and how they manipulate loyalty and belief - Why it's harder than ever to tell truth from deception, especially in the age of AI-generated misinformation - And finally…could the MAGA movement itself be considered a modern-day cult? This deep dive will make you question everything you thought you knew about power, control, and truth.
