DSD 6.12 | Brachytic corn for increased production The brachytic gene mutation results in corn that is shorter in stature but an improved digestibility profile. Through a reduction in intranode distance, the corn plant reduces indigestible fiber. Dr. Antonio Gallo, PhD ruminant nutritionist from Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore and his team in Italy recently studied the impact of this gene mutation on the productivity of the dairy herd. High quality, home grown forages allow dairy producers to maintain the competitive edge. By limiting the purchase of off-farm nutrients, forages possess the ability to advance or hold back a herd. When brachytic corn was fed, they found a yield increase of 3.8 lbs/cow/day. However, the higher producing animals did not consume more. “This is likely due to a chemotactic effect,” Gallo describes. The team measured changes in the intake pattern which provided insight to future research questions for data to better understand how this phenomenon could have happened. The quality of corn silage impacts the health and productivity of the dairy cow. Additionally, her intake behavior is impacted by the ration. As more dairy farms move toward robotic systems, maximizing the energy density of the PMR will directly impact productivity, perhaps brachytic corn is most important in these systems. Listen in to understand how the brachytic corn variety might work in your operation.

If you love duck hunting, particularly hunting mallards over decoys, this episode is for you. In this episode of Fin and Fire with Jeff Mishler, Mike Callian and I discuss duck blind construction, the new DSD line of mallard decoys, and how to effectively deploy them for maximum success.  

This week on The Doomscroll Diaries, we dive into our thoughts on the new Diddy documentary - the wild moments, the uncomfortable parts, and why everyone online is reacting the way they are.Then we get into the story of Bonnie Blue being arrested in Bali, how it unfolded, why it sparked so much debate, and why this whole situation feels like the world's darkest study-abroad cautionary tale.And finally… we need to talk about THAT viral CEO interview. The chair bouncing. The pacing. The energy. The absolute chaos. We break down why the internet thinks he was acting completely unhinged and why this clip has everyone asking, “Is this guy okay?”It's messy, it's unhinged, it's deeply unserious - in other words, a normal week on DSD.Make sure to check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Laura's Don't Tell Comedy Special ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠and leave a comment telling her hair looks great.Follow us on Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@laurasogar⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@mae_planert⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and follow the pod ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@doomscrolldiariespod

Amidst booming demand for functional beverages…niche ingredients have found a catalyst to mainstream awareness and mass acceptance. Though, there's a big difference when comparing (say) lion's mane mushrooms, which meets the FDA definition of a dietary supplement…and kratom, even if plant-derived sources of the niche ingredient could align with natural wellness trends. And I get it…there's obviously growing market demand for kratom, that (depending on dosage) supposedly delivers a boost of euphoric energy or sedative relaxation. But poor regulatory enforcement doesn't somehow make it allowable by default. And maybe this is a spicy take, especially coming from someone (personally) holding strong libertarian views when it comes to adults consuming whatever they want, but I believe professionally that beer-affiliated DSD distributors selling high-margin products with kratom (or even hemp-derived THC beverages in certain states) are no different than all these independent specialty supplement retailers selling unauthorized peptides or prohormones.

DSD 6.11 | The sweet spot - Insemination timing for peak profit With changes in the marketplace, coupled with increased reproductive performance of your herd there is an increased opportunity to improve net return. While breeding beef and sexed semen is no longer new, our industry has experienced a miscalculation of the ideal number of replacement heifers needed to optimize this model. To ensure you're on the right path, Megan Lauber , Dr. Paul Fricke and Dr. Victor Cabrera from University of WI recently completed work on a model of the interaction between 21-d Preg rate, semen type, days in milk and heifer survival to find the optimum window – known as the Insemination Eligibility Period (IEP). This metric will soon to be easily monitored with a tool available online. Their model found $51.00 / head improvements in net return when all the metrics are optimized.

This week on the Inside EMS podcast, Dr. Peter Antevy returns for another round in the hot seat, and he's not holding back. In this jam-packed episode, he and host Chris Cebollero tackle trending topics in prehospital care — from the expanding role of whole blood and plasma, to the frustrating gaps in the AHA's 2025 guidelines. You'll hear real-world success stories (like the cardiac arrest survivor who's back on the tennis court), why dual sequential defibrillation (DSD) should already be your go-to, and the cost-benefit realities of starting a whole blood program. Dr. Antevy also dives into the science behind glycocalyx damage and how plasma could change how we treat sepsis, TBI and burns in the field. Whether you're a medic, medical director or just passionate about pushing EMS forward, this episode delivers practical insight, bold opinions and a whole lot of inspiration. Quotable takeaways from Dr. Antevy “The medical establishment does not understand the value of what EMS brings to the table. They don't understand the complexity.” “When we said, ‘We'll do the whole blood,' what did the surgeons do? They went up in arms: ‘What do you mean you're giving whole blood? Bring them to us. We'll give the whole blood.' No, no, no. We are part of the chain of survival, too.” “EMS is a subspecialty in the house of medicine. We all need to rise up to make the hospital folks and the academics aware that EMS is important for trauma, for stroke, for pediatrics, for cardiac. We are the ones who can help bring up those outcomes and that's why I love this field.” Additional resources:  AHA 2025 updates are here: Cue the overreactions and the protocol rewrites On-demand: Bringing whole blood to the front lines of EMS Stop the bleed, fill the tank – The New Orleans EMS blood program Whole blood in EMS promises a revolution in resuscitation Enjoying Inside EMS?

Can Celsius Holding navigate the hidden energy drinks market risks involving the Alani Nu and PepsiCo DSD distribution swap? Celsius Holdings (NASDAQ: CELH) had quarterly revenue of $725.1 million, which was up 173% YoY. Excluding the Alani Nu acquisition-related financial impact, CELSIUS brand revenue grew 44% YoY. And if you were wondering about Alani Nu, it's second quarter revenue was $332 million…which equates to around 99% YoY growth! According to Circana last 13-week retail sales data, CELSIUS increased by 31% YoY...remaining the third-largest energy drink brand in the category with a dollar share of 11.2%. Alani Nu increased retail sales 114% YoY and is now the dominant fourth player in the U.S. energy drinks market with dollar share of 7.2%. And Rockstar Energy retail sales decreased 9% YoY and is the seventh-largest U.S. energy drink with dollar share of 2.4%. If we look at Celsius Holdings combined brand portfolio, it reached 20.8% of dollar share for the last 13-week period...ranking it third and trailing only Red Bull and the combined Monster Beverage portfolio. Additionally, if you were to consider the last 52-week period ending July 20, 2025…Celsius Holdings retail sales surpassed $5 billion. Celsius Holdings has experienced massive growth in convenience stores, foodservice (e.g. fast food restaurants), mass retailers like Walmart, the club channel in retailers like Costco, and the Amazon marketplace. And international expansion presents significant opportunity for incremental growth over the next three to five years. With the Celsius brand basically at full distribution now…growth will be unlocked through a strategic growth framework that John Fieldly recently branded as “more people,” “more places,” and “more often.” The other major aspect of “Celsius Holdings and PepsiCo strengthening its long-term strategic partnership” comes into play, as Alani Nu will move into the PepsiCo DSD distribution system (officially starting in December). Everyone knew the most obvious decision to optimize for a “short-term reward” was Celsius Holdings transitioning Alani Nu from its piecemealed national (mostly independent) DSD network to the PepsiCo system. However, I can't fault Celsius Holdings for making A LOT of noise by effectively “pulling off the biggest “trade” the U.S. energy drinks market has seen over the past decade.” But it's the question around “timing” that has me fired up! But it's time for Celsius Holdings to prepare…because winter is coming! Firstly, Celsius Holdings efficiently must handle market challenges stemming from swapping Alani Nu distribution rights. Next, Celsius Holdings must successfully catch the Rockstar Energy proverbial falling knife. Then, the shift to zero sugar, functional energy drinks, has essentially fueled one of the fastest-growing segments in beverage…and Celsius Holdings had been unequivocally defining it. Yet, with the addition of Rockstar Energy, Celsius Holdings must now reorient itself top to bottom around being a total energy portfolio…and not a performance-forward and modern energy portfolio that possesses this powerful “challenger mindset.”

DSD 6.9 | Surplus calves are a perishable commodity This robust beef market is having a direct impact on the bottom line of dairy calf buyers and possesses the ability to radically impact dairymen's bottom line long term through low all milk prices. This month we talk to researcher Dr. Sam Locke from The Ohio State University about a survey launched to help better understand the workings of the current calf buyers, jockeys and marketers. All sectors of this parallel and complementary production stream must work together for the dairy industry to generate a stronger, longer - lasting foothold in the beef industry. If done well through this opportunity, the dairy surplus calf market will establish a foothold in the beef supply chain. Listen in to hear insightful quotes from these Midwest calf buyers to help maximize your operation's innate revenue stream.

Did Celsius Holdings and PepsiCo just pull-off the biggest “trade” the U.S. energy drinks market has seen over the past decade? I instantly felt like the beverage industry version of ESPN analyst Adam Schefter reporting on an NFL trade when I started to read the press release titled “Celsius Holdings and PepsiCo Strengthen Long-Term Strategic Partnership.” Essentially, CELSIUS acquired the Rockstar Energy brand (and $585 million in cash considerations), in return for PepsiCo receiving newly issued convertible 5% preferred stock, an additional board of directors seat, and the Alani Nu DSD distribution rights. And it reminded me of the all-time biggest “trade” within the energy drinks market that was announced in August 2014, involving Monster Beverage Corporation and The Coca-Cola Company entering into a long-term strategic partnership to accelerate growth for both companies in the fast-growing, global energy drink category. And beyond swapping brand assets, key terms of their current distribution agreement (like contract length, geographical expansion, and categorical exclusivity) were amended. But speaking of amended distribution agreements…the CELSIUS, PepsiCo, and Alani Nu DSD story likely began sometime in the second half of 2023 (when co-owners of Alani Nu started exploring sale options) but really started to heat up when a distribution agreement revision happened between CELSIUS and PepsiCo in early 2024. But then when the CELSIUS and Alani Nu deal was officially announced in February 2025, I quickly started shouting about this upcoming “short-term reward versus long-term risk” strategic roadmap decision involving Alani Nu distribution. And everyone knew the most obvious decision to optimize for a “short-term reward” was Celsius Holdings transitioning Alani Nu from its current piecemealed national (mostly independent) DSD network to the PepsiCo system. Yet, it's the question around “timing” that got me fired up! Alani Nu has been an absolute rocket ship brand over the last few years…which had been essentially built off the back of its current DSD distribution network. Though, from my very first content talking about the M&A announcement…I believed the best near-term strategic plan involved Alani Nu distribution network continuity because (1) it would minimize platform “key customer risk,” (2) strengthen focus on other business integration elements, but (3) lowers cannibalization risk significantly. And it's that last point around cannibalization risk, which (in my opinion) has become even more prominent after quickness of the distribution transition decision. Though, another expected strategic alignment got unlocked when Celsius Holdings took ownership of the Rockstar Energy brand…making them PepsiCo's strategic energy drink captain. And that essentially means Celsius Holdings will have the opportunity to drive the strategic direction of a unified energy portfolio through seamless planogram design, SKU prioritization, and promotional execution. Nevertheless, the biggest question revolves around whether Rockstar Energy will be net-additive or net-subtractive to the Celsius Holdings portfolio? And then lastly, my first principles thinking content will cover the energy drinks market implications from a new round of the DSD musical chairs game within the energy drinks category to exploring if more large-scale energy drinks market consolidation will happen soon.

By now, you've undoubtedly heard the business news that Keurig Dr Pepper entered into a definitive agreement to acquire JDE Peet's worldwide portfolio of beloved coffee brands. Under the terms of the agreement, KDP will purchase all outstanding ordinary shares of JDE Peet's…valuing the all-cash transaction at approximately $18.3 billion. And you might be thinking, “wow I didn't realize KDP was Mr. Money Bags,” especially after I mentioned in content recently that the almost $2 billion GHOST Lifestyle acquisition last year was its largest deal to date. But to understand what's really going on…it requires a history lesson that begins with Johann Adam Benckiser founding an industrial chemicals business in 1823. Though, the real business history nerds will recognize the initials of Johann Adam Benckiser for another reason. JAB Holding Company was formed in 2012, as a partner-led investment firm, with the consolidation of all business assets. During that early formation process, JAB Holding Company created the Coffee & Beverages Investment Platform via the take private transactions of Peet's Coffee and D.E Masterblenders. Then, a few years later…that investment platform expanded when it merged with the coffee division of Mondelez International (essentially creating the JDE portion of JDE Peet's). But in 2016, JAB Holding Company was involved in another coffee-related “take private transaction,” this time acquiring Keurig Green Mountain for $13.9 billion. Then, in 2018, Keurig Green Mountain acquired Dr Pepper Snapple Group for $18.7 billion…with JAB Holding Company owning (at the time) 73% of the combined Keurig Dr Pepper company. And while ownership percentages have fluctuated greatly over the years (especially on the KDP side), all roads still lead back to JAB Holding Company (even though you will see only a minor mention of it buried within the JDE Peet's transaction details section of the press release). So, what I'm saying is JAB Holding Company basically created both JDE Peet's and KDP…and thus, JAB Holding Company can essentially recreate JDE Peet's and KDP! After the M&A transaction closes, KDP plans to separate into two independent, U.S.-listed publicly traded companies…currently given generic “Global Coffee Co.” and “Beverage Co.” placeholder names. Yet, with a portfolio of iconic and emerging brands (generating more than $11 billion in annual net sales), a differentiated and expanding DSD distribution system, and a proven, capital-efficient “build, buy, partner” growth model, “Beverage Co.” will ACTUALLY not change much (at least initially). Instead, “Beverage Co.” will significantly improve due to sharper focused decision-making, tailored capital allocation strategies, and enhanced optionality overall. Essentially, the previous KDP “Refreshment Beverages” segment gets better through simplification. In just two short years, KDP went from getting its categorical ass whipped to controlling the most intriguing “active nutrition” brand portfolio by (1) acquiring a large stake in the maker of C4 Energy, (2) strategically partnering with Electrolit and Black Rifle Coffee, (3) acquiring GHOST, and (4) getting access to Bloom Nutrition through a proxy investment by Nutrabolt. But then, for the final part of my latest first principles content piece, I'll reconsider an element from my previous KDP “active nutrition” brand portfolio content…and examine possible new contagion effects from this separation announcement.

DSD 6.8 | That is where you should put your money For years researchers have sought out to better understand control mechanisms for a successful transition into lactation from the dry period. We've learned changing body condition score during the dry period is not acceptable, but what if it changes during late lactation?  How does this impact energy partitioning for the next lactation? Well managed high producing cows with high fertility might find themselves bred back in less than the “textbook ideal” condition score heading into the dry period. Can we alter the late lactation ration to successfully increase condition with little impact? Dr. Laura Hernandez from the University of Wisconsin worked with a team of researchers at the Forage Center to better understand what is happening if high energy is fed late in lactation through extensive data collection to determine the possible potential carry over effects for subsequent lactations. Listen into this compelling discussion as we learn more about the “black box” we know as the transition dairy cow and what phase to invest in to maximize your return.

Alani Nu is experiencing “scary-level growth,” but that shouldn't be concerning…as Celsius Holdings leadership doesn't get spooked easily! Celsius Holdings (NASDAQ: CELH) had quarterly revenue of $739.3 million, which was up 84% YoY. Excluding the Alani Nu acquisition-related financial impact, CELSIUS brand revenue grew 9% YoY. And if you were wondering about Alani Nu, it's second quarter revenue was $301.5 million…which equates to around 106% YoY growth! According to Circana last 13-week retail sales data, CELSIUS increased by 3% YoY...remaining the third-largest energy drink brand in the category with a dollar share of 11%. Alani Nu increased retail sales 129% YoY and is now the dominant fourth player in the U.S. energy drinks market with dollar share of 6.3%. If we look at Celsius Holdings combined brand portfolio, it reached 17.3% of dollar share for the last 13-week period ending June 29, 2025...ranking it third and trailing only Red Bull and the combined Monster Beverage portfolio. Additionally, if you were to consider the last 52-week period ending July 20, 2025…Celsius Holdings retail sales were over $4 billion, surpassing the combined sales of the next eight energy drink brands. Celsius Holdings has experienced massive growth in convenience stores, foodservice (e.g. fast food restaurants), mass retailers like Walmart, the club channel in retailers like Costco, and the Amazon marketplace. And international expansion presents significant opportunity for incremental growth over the next three to five years. With the Celsius brand basically at full distribution now…growth will be unlocked through a strategic growth framework that John Fieldly recently branded as “more people,” “more places,” and “more often.” And while Alani Nu will obviously be integrated into many aspects of that strategic growth framework...it will currently be done outside of the PepsiCo distribution network. If you remember (in my initial content) after the M&A deal was officially announced, I made the strategic recommendation regarding Alani Nu independent DSD distribution network continuity…as I believed it provided Celsius Holdings the best near-term strategic plan to (1) minimize platform “key customer risk,” (2) strengthen focus on other business integration elements, but (3) lower near-term cannibalization risk significantly. But beyond the distribution strategy difference, Alani Nu is also “leaps and bounds” ahead of the CELSIUS brand in leveraging LTO product innovation. Alani Nu showed extraordinary strength, led by Sherbet Swirl and Cotton Candy. But believe it or not…expectations are even higher heading into the next quarterly reporting period, as Alani Nu customers are going wild across social media about the fan favorite Witch's Brew flavor recently returning to stores (along with a funky new LTO flavor Pumpkin Cream). But or the Celsius Holdings portfolio to meaningfully expand its household penetration beyond the current 43%, it must stay culturally relevant with the next generation of modern energy drinkers by continuing to invest in brand awareness activities that focus on driving trial and loyalty.

Let's talk about how the most intriguing “active nutrition” brand portfolio isn't controlled by some legacy supplement company. Instead, in just two short years, Keurig Dr Pepper (NASDAQ: KDP) went from getting its categorical butt kicked in the “three-headed monster” of active nutrition beverages (aka energy drinks, sports drinks, and protein shakes) to now controlling the most intriguing “active nutrition” brand portfolio by (1) acquiring a large stake in the maker of C4 Energy, (2) strategically partnering with Electrolit and Black Rifle Coffee, (3) acquiring GHOST, and (4) getting access to Bloom Nutrition through a proxy investment by Nutrabolt. And this positive momentum is most evident within the energy drinks market, as the four brands controlled by KDP (e.g. C4 Energy, GHOST Energy, Bloom Sparkling Energy, and Black Rifle energy drinks) now combine to represent over $1 billion in annual run rate net sales…and are scaling rapidly. And in in aggregate…the KDP energy drink portfolio grew about one percentage point of share in 2025 thus far. And after experiencing more than 30% YoY retail sales growth in Q2, KDP holds a 7% share in the U.S. energy drinks market…which only trails the brand portfolio of Monster Beverage, Red Bull, and expanded Celsius Holdings brand portfolio. But having near-term aspirations of hitting a double-digit share position within the fast-growing $26 billion U.S. energy drinks market, KDP must surgically allocate meaningful resources to ensure (1) brand distinction between GHOST and C4 remains mission-critical and (2) Bloom Sparkling Energy gets ample support throughout its scaling phase. Then, in terms of hydration…Electrolit is currently the fastest-growing scaled brand and fourth-largest brand overall in the sports drink category. Benefitting from strong velocities, DSD enabled distribution expansion, and product innovation…Electrolit experienced retail sales growth over 30% YoY and gained more than 1.5 points of market share in Q2. And though I'd argue Electrolit is only scratching the surface of its long-term potential in the U.S. market, the KDP hydration portfolio also contains GHOST. Also, while these “enhanced waters” aren't technically included within this analysis…I'd be silly to not mention the huge rebound of the Bai brand, which has been powered recently in part by the “Sydney Sweeney effect.” KDP also recently acquired Dyla Brands, a manufacturer of powdered drink mixes and liquid water enhancers that should help those active nutrition brands build individual serving stick pack format presence in additional functional beverage categories. And then finally, I'll breakdown the KDP protein beverages platform…which is undoubtedly their laggard within the “three-headed categorical monster” of active nutrition beverages. Yet, in saying that…it might also be the category that sees the most upcoming “build, acquire, and/or partner” business activity. GHOST could (and should) look at relaunching its RTD protein beverages, C4 was rumored to be working on RTD protein beverages leveraging its Hershey's licensing partnership, and Bloom Nutrition could easily extend into RTD protein beverages (giving its female customers a fun mainstream clear whey innovation). But by controlling an intriguing brand portfolio and actively growing its go-to-market prowess and commercial playbook, I believe KDP is well-positioned to continue winning in this important “active nutrition” beverages space.

تشخیص جنسیت در پزشکی معمولاً بر اساس کروموزوم‌ها (XX یا XY) و اندام تناسلی نوزاد انجام می‌شود. در موارد خاص (مثل اختلالات رشد جنسی یا DSD)، نیاز به بررسی‌های ژنتیکی، هورمونی و جراحی وجود دارد.اما هویت جنسی یعنی احساسی درونی که هر فرد دربارهٔ زن یا مرد بودن خود دارد — این احساس همیشه با جنسیت زیستی یکسان نیست. افراد ترنس‌جندر کسانی هستند که هویت جنسی‌شان با بدن زیستی‌شان متفاوت است و ممکن است بخواهند با درمان‌های پزشکی یا تغییرات اجتماعی، هویت واقعی‌شان را زندگی کنند.

Send us a textI live and work in the woods, surrounded by wildlife. There are many species of birds and in the spring their songs are pretty amazing. Over the years, I have thought about recording those birds, but the background noise level was a problem. Although very quiet by most people's standards, there is still a lot of man-made noise -- too much noise to make recording the birds feasible.But an opportunity arose in May of 2020 during the Covid pandemic when there was very little travel. I took advantage of that short window to capture the spring birds in the early morning.This episode is the story of how that recording was made. I explain the challenges I faced and the technical decisions I made to effectively make a recording that I find quite compelling.It is recorded in DSD digital, and it is available on Outer Marker Records through our international download distributor, Native DSD. You can listen to a CD-quality version of the album for free, and purchase it in several high-resolution formats, including DSD256, which is an exact bit-for-bit file of the original master.It's also available on all streaming services, under my name, Doug Fearn.I hope you find this story interesting.https://www.nativedsd.com/product/om04100h-spring-birds-an-audiophile-recording-experience-from-doug-fearn/ https://www.outermarkerrecords.com/email: dwfearn@dwfearn.comwww.youtube.com/c/DWFearnhttps://dwfearn.com/

Send us a textVirtually all digital recording uses a format called PCM. But there is another digital format that works in an entirely different way. It's called DSD, for Direct Stream Digital, and you might find that it sounds better than PCM.In this episode, I explain what DSD is, mostly from a practical, user, viewpoint.If it sounds better, why don't we use it? Well, DSD comes with some serious limitations. I explain those limitations and the techniques used to get around them in the world of contemporary recording.Most people will find the shortcomings of DSD to be enough of a problem that they have no interest in it. But for those of us who are on a quest for the best sounding audio we can achieve, DSD is worth it despite its challenges.Here is a link to Native DSD, a digital distributor that has specialized in DSD digital downloads:https://www.nativedsd.com/… and a link to Outer Marker Records, the label the Hazelrigg Brothers and I founded a few years go.

DSD 6.3 | Big Picture Management Decisions Matter Timeless dairy management decisions, such as voluntary waiting period & days dry, have recently been the topic of interest across the globe. Scrutiny to illuminate the ideal to maximize productive life has left the industry questioning convention.   Michael Overton, DVM at Zoetis worked with co-author Steve Eicker to tease out the answers to these questions from a a massive dataset of 109,000 cows across 60 herds nationwide. This retrospective, observational research project was recently published in the Journal of Dairy Science titled, “Associations between days open and dry period length versus milk production, replacement, and fertility in the subsequent lactation in Holstein dairy cows”. All dairymen should pause to determine the unintended consequences of their management decisions on optimal performance and ultimately the economic success of the herd.

Keurig Dr Pepper (NASDAQ: KDP) basically went from getting its categorical ass whipped to being the most interesting energy drinks portfolio in just two short years by acquiring a large stake in Nutrabolt (owner of C4 Energy), strategically partnering with Black Rifle Coffee Company to distribute its new energy drink, acquiring GHOST Lifestyle, and adding Bloom Energy to its national DSD system. But what if KDP was making all these strategic moves to simply hedge against a growing risk on its multibillion-dollar U.S. coffee segment? KDP was recently charged by the SEC over making inaccurate statements within past earnings reports about the recyclability of K-Cups. And while the civil penalty levied was laughable, it highlights sustainability questions at a time when conscious consumerism is becoming more popular. If anything, maybe it's telling when the K-Cup inventor has publicly stated for years his regret over the negative environmental impact of those tiny plastic pods.

Did we just experience the defining moment within the better-for-you, functional lifestyle products movement? Celsius Holdings (NASDAQ: CELH) had quarterly revenue of $332.2 million, which was down 4% YoY. And while that now marks the second straight quarter of YoY revenues losses…sequential QoQ revenue activity increased sharply at 25%. According to Circana last 52-week data, CELSIUS accounted for 30.3% of all energy drink category growth YoY. In addition, Celsius sustained its market share of 11.8% and is securely the third-largest energy drink brand in the category. And I don't want gloss over this accomplishment…as CELSIUS became the first brand in over a decade not named Red Bull or Monster Energy that was able to capture more than a 10% share in the U.S. energy drinks market. Celsius energy drinks has seen massive growth in convenience stores, foodservice (e.g. fast food restaurants), mass retailers like Walmart, the club channel in retailers like Costco, and the Amazon marketplace. Additionally, the early international market development groundwork starting to formalize with CELSIUS extending its relationship with Suntory Beverage & Food and also the first major international market expansion under the PepsiCo umbrella (i.e. Canada). It's my opinion that international expansion presents significant opportunity for incremental growth over the next three to five years. With Celsius at basically full distribution now…the TDP growth will have to come from increased items carried per store. Going forward, Celsius will increase items per store through a combination of product strategies like flavor, format, pack size, and variant expansion. Additionally, CELISUS will continue scaling up the new Essentials lineup that has exceeded the company's expectations. Moreover, they will seek more store placements like leveraging cold display activity in Celsius-branded coolers. But the huge breaking news that accompanied this earnings report was CELSIUS entering into a definitive agreement to acquire Alani Nutrition for a net purchase price of $1.65 billion, comprising a mix of cash and stock. In 2024, Alani Nu became the fourth-largest U.S. energy drink brand…reaching more than $800 million in retail sales across tracked channels…growing an astonishing 63% YoY. Moreover, the combined brand platform of CELSIUS and Alani Nu energy drinks would be considered the fastest growing energy drink brand portfolio of the top 10 categorical competitors...generating slightly below $2 billion in revenue and more than $3.5 billion in tracked channel retail sales over the full-year 2024 period, and would have 16% category share (trailing only the Monster Energy combined brand platform and Red Bull). But I'll also analyze a collection of questions that have huge energy drinks market implications like why did CELSIUS acquire Alani Nu, is there cannibalization risk, will PepsiCo distribute Alani Nu now, CELSIUS product category expansion, and will this set off more market consolidation and another game of independent DSD musical chairs.

How Biology Challenges the Male-Female BinaryIn this documentary-style episode, Outrage Overload dives into the intricate and often misunderstood world of sex development, using the controversy surrounding female boxers at the Paris Olympics as a case study. We unpack the science, ethics, and personal stories behind Differences in Sex Development (DSDs), challenging the oversimplified narratives that dominate today's polarizing debates.Join us as we explore:Why the biology of sex development is more complex than the XX/XY binary.How the Paris Olympics highlighted the tension between fairness, inclusion, and misinformation.The real-life impact of DSD diagnoses on individuals and families.A thoughtful discussion on the challenges of sports eligibilityFeaturing expert insights from Dr. Richard Auchus, a leading endocrinologist, and Amethysta Herrick, a transgender woman and advocate, this episode is a deep dive into science, empathy, and the lessons we can learn about navigating difficult conversations.Text me your feedback and leave your contact info if you'd like a reply (this is a one-way text).

After getting ghosted, Anheuser-Busch puts together a deal that no one saw coming [well almost no one]. But maybe why this deal news announcement by Anheuser-Busch caught so many off guard was that (even being in market more than two years now) the trailing twelve months of tracked channel retail sales for the 1st Phorm Energy drink would rank them just inside the Top 50 energy drink brands in the U.S. market. But as you'll hear in the content, even if comparative growth rates were sharply increasing (proving that the thoughtful independent DSD network buildout and retail go-to-market plan was working), those retail sales metrics weren't going to be one of the primary reasons behind the new partnership announced a few weeks ago. In the press release, it noted that the new partnership aimed at fueling new innovations within the rapidly growing energy drinks and related functional beverage segments. And the partnership's initial energy product was expected to come to market by this upcoming summer 2025 and to be distributed by the Anheuser-Busch network of wholesaler partners. Moreover, a fun little extra detail was that the partnership would also include sports and entertainment mogul Dana White…who if you didn't realize has had success in the beverage world (selling minority interest of his Howler Head whiskey brand a few years ago to Campari Group). But for my latest first principles thinking content, I'll analyze what this announcement means for all involved stakeholders (including the U.S. energy drinks market implications).

With legions of die-hard customers, Dave Smith Decoys have long been regarded as the most realistic and utterly effective decoys available. But who is the man behind these legendary craft decoys, and what does his functional art say about him as a hunter and a human being? You'd have to figure him a serious goose hunter if nothing else. Legendary decoy maker Dave Smith describes growing up hunting and trapping in Oregon, artistic influences, starting a decoy company, and more. We get deep into the many various goose species hunted in Oregon, why regular ol' honker decoys aren't effective in luring various species, hunting techniques, leg bands and neck collars, new DSD duck decoys, turkey decoys, what makes his DSD best, and continually striving to be better. Really good stuff.      Visit MOJO's Duck Season Somewhere Podcast Sponsors:   MOJO Outdoors  Benelli Shotguns BOSS Shotshells Bow and Arrow Outdoors Ducks Unlimited  Flash Back Decoys  HuntProof Premium Waterfowl App Inukshuk Professional Dog Food  onX Maps Tetra Hearing Tom Beckbe Voormi GetDucks.com USHuntList.com     Please subscribe, rate and review Mojo's Duck Season Somewhere podcast.

Sasha and Stella welcome Aaron Kimberly back to the show, nearly a year after her first appearance on the podcast. Aaron has undergone a remarkable transformation, returning to her female identity and embracing a new understanding and acceptance of herself. This episode delves into Aaron's complex journey of self-discovery, shaped by her unique experiences with a rare ovotesticular disorder of sex development (DSD), her longstanding identity as a butch lesbian, and the medical, professional, and social experiences that have shaped her path.In this episode, Aaron examines the role of the butch lesbian community that once fostered a vital sense of belonging—a community that, as she remarks, has largely faded, leaving young butch lesbians with limited support. She suggests that this shift might be contributing to the increased rates of medical transition among younger lesbians today. Her deep commitment to understanding the diverse reasons for sex non-conformity, coupled with her involvement in lesbian communities, has cultivated her interest in the cultural contexts of gender and atypical bodies, often pathologized or medicalized in society.This is an incredibly compelling conversation reflecting on the evolving relationship between lesbian identity, butch identity, and the implications of a medicalized appearance.

Episode 5: A battle over science and ethics unfolds. World Athletics releases and then tweaks multiple policies impacting DSD athletes, while critics cry foul. In this episode, World Athletics doubles down on its claims, Caster Semenya challenges the rules again, and we dig deep on a big question: what constitutes an "unfair" advantage on the track?

Episode 4: In 2009, South African sprinter Caster Semenya won gold at the World Championships. But instead of a celebration, she endured endless speculation about her body, her biology, and her gender. And soon, sports organizations would launch a new round of regulations, lead to multiple court cases, and require sporting organizations to justify their claim that DSD athletes have an unfair advantage.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Episode 3: We meet Kenyan sprinter Maximila Imali, who—like Christine Mboma—has been sidelined by DSD policies. She makes a different choice from Christine: to fight the regulations in court. And we learn about a previous fight, when scientists, athletes, and journalists spent thirty years trying to end an earlier version of sex testing.To listen to this series sponsor-free and support NPR, sign up for Embedded+ in Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
