Welcome to the Purple Patch Podcast. On this episode, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon explained how Purple Patch off-season training builds health, durability, and readiness for the next endurance season. Core Focus Four topics were covered: strength training, body composition, run-injury resistance, and maintaining structure during the off-season. Off-season is intended to establish a foundation rather than pursue peak race fitness. Training Guidance Most endurance athletes should prioritize two 30–40-minute strength sessions weekly, using progressive heavy lifting with sound form; some mature athletes may benefit from three sessions. Nutrition should emphasize individualized assessment, hydration, fueling, and adequate protein rather than chasing race weight. Run durability should be developed through frequent easy running, optional walk breaks, short technical speed efforts, and patient progression. Program Structure Off-season officially begins September 28, with athletes transitioning after later-season races. The off-season is a training phase within Tri Squad and one-to-one coaching, not a separate program. No unresolved questions or blockers were identified.

Hello everyone. Welcome to the latest episode of The Matchbox Podcast powered by Ignition Coach Co. I'm your host, Adam Saban, and on this week's episode we're talking about preferred cadence, durability workouts for mountain bikers, and our current takes on sodium bicarbonate supplementation.   As always, if you like what you hear, share this with your friends and leave us a five star review and if you have any questions for the show drop us an email at matchboxpod@gmail.com or head over to ignitioncoachco.com and fill out The Matchbox Podcast listener question form.    Alight let's get into it!   For more social media content, follow along @ignitioncoachco @adamsaban6 @dizzle_dillman @dylanjawnson @kait.maddox       https://www.youtube.com/c/DylanJohnsonCycling https://www.ignitioncoachco.com  https://www.youtube.com/@DrewDillmanChannel   Intro/ Outro music by AlexGrohl - song "King Around Here" - https://pixabay.com/music/id-15045/    The following was generated using Riverside.fm AI technologies   In this episode, Adam, Dylan, and Kaitlyn Maddox answer listener questions on cycling cadence, durability workouts, and sodium bicarbonate. They break down what changes performance, what mostly changes feel, and where the research and real-world experience line up.   Key topics In this episode: cadence does not directly make you faster at the same power output. Watts matter more than RPM alone. Dylan argues that the most efficient cadence is usually your preferred, most comfortable cadence, not a forced target. The group discusses why low cadence can feel grindy on climbs and why too much cadence manipulation often adds more fatigue than benefit. Kaitlyn and Adam note that bike fit, saddle height, core stability, and position can all contribute to bouncing in the saddle at higher cadence. The conversation shifts to durability training and how to place hard sessions with intervals before and after endurance riding. Dylan and Kaitlyn both say durability workouts are taxing enough that they should not be done year-round as a weekly default. Kaitlyn explains her coaching approach of building one energy system at a time, then adding a durability session at the end of each block. Dylan shares that he has progressed from basic endurance-between-intervals sessions to longer tempo blocks between interval sets to better simulate race fatigue. The final section covers bicarbonate use for sprint triathlon and short running events, with agreement that it is worth testing for hard, high-intensity efforts. The hosts compare products and methods, including delayed-release capsules, flavored systems, and the importance of trialing bicarb in training before race day.   Timestamps 00:00 - Listener question: does higher cadence make you faster? 01:10 - Same watts, different RPMs: what actually changes 02:45 - The most efficient cadence is your preferred cadence 04:03 - Can cadence be trained, or is it mostly self-selected? 05:16 - Why low-cadence riders can struggle on climbs 07:03 - Fast-twitch recruitment and why low cadence can burn you out 08:40 - Torque intervals versus cadence manipulation 10:20 - Why the science on cadence is not convincing 14:25 - Pogacar, short cranks, and why pro cadence trends can mislead 15:34 - Why more trained riders often naturally choose higher cadence 17:41 - Fixing saddle bounce: cadence, core, and bike fit 19:10 - Adam's move to single-speed mountain biking 19:39 - Listener question: how to use durability work in training 20:58 - Why durability workouts are too taxing to do all year 22:30 - Building race-specific durability around the demands of the event 24:48 - How durability sessions differ from standard VO2 workouts 26:00 - Dylan's progression from endurance gaps to tempo blocks 28:48 - Why Kaitlyn avoids a dedicated durability block 29:18 - Energy-system blocks and adding durability at the end 30:10 - Why these sessions should not happen the week before a race 31:21 - Where durability fits if an athlete only has one long ride day 33:29 - Why durability is not a third intensity day 34:09 - Listener question: is bicarb worth it for sprint triathlon and 5K racing? 35:21 - Why bicarb matters most for short, hard efforts 36:21 - Product options and stomach-friendly formulations 38:32 - Delayed-release capsules and reducing GI issues 39:04 - How Dylan doses bicarb before racing 40:38 - Why bicarb should be tested in training, not first used on race day 43:57 - Creatine versus bicarb: different benefits, different use cases 46:50 - Why supplement benefits do not always stack 48:33 - Bicarb plus caffeine and why that combination can feel stronger 49:27 - How bicarb can still matter in longer events 50:05 - The workout-level feeling of “unlocking another gear”    

In today's Research Roundup we bring you four recent studies. How world-class Norwegian endurance coaches programme strength and speed, the factors determining how a runner's physiology holds up over two and a half hours of running, a defence of the critical power model written by the people who built it, and a polarised versus high-intensity trial in cyclists with a result neither of us expected.HIGHLIGHTS AND KEY TOPICS:Strength and speed training across eight Olympic endurance sports (including triathlon, swimming, cycling and running), from 12 world-class Norwegian coaches whose athletes have won over 400 international medals. How many hours a year each sport does, and which sport sits at the bottom of the table.What those sessions look like: exercises, sets, reps and how close to failure the athletes are taken, which is a long way from what randomised trials prescribe. Plus the 10 hours a year of speed training every sport did, and what it looks like.How Daniel and Mikael each place strength and speed work in a real training week, where they differ from the Norwegian model, and why an age-group athlete in their forties is a different case from an Olympic athlete in their twenties.Physiological resilience (durability) during two and a half hours of continuous unfed running, with thresholds, running economy and VO2max retested at the end. Which variables fall most, which barely move, and how runners of different ability differ.Mikael sets the running economy decline against what a pair of carbon shoes buys you and asks which is bigger. Plus the two qualities that separated the runners who held up, one aerobic and one from the gym.Ten common criticisms of the critical power model, answered by the group that built it: whether CP is just FTP renamed, whether the model claims you can hold CP forever, whether a power law fits the curve better, and where the authors concede most.Critical power as a moving number rather than a fixed one, what that does to how you prescribe a threshold session, and the gap between the test durations the paper recommends and the ones Mikael actually uses.Polarised against high intensity with the hard sessions held identical, three a week for six weeks, one group adding four hours a week of easy riding. What the time trial showed, and why Mikael thinks the result is wrong (a strong statement!).SHOWNOTES, LINKS, RESOURCES AND RELATED EPISODES:Follow Daniel Rowland and Endurance Ideas and Implementation on his website, Substack and Instagram.The shownotes for today's episode can be found here.The full podcast episode archives (including category filters) can be found here.Related episodes:New Research on Torque Training, Ketones, Carb Loading and Pacing | Daniel Rowland | EP#698The 10% Rule Applies to Your Long Run, Not Your Week | Research Roundup | EP#709Is VO2max more important than lactate threshold? | Research roundup | EP#705[Triathlon Science] Durability decoded – a 2025 perspective with Michele Zanini, PhDStudies discussed:Strength and Speed Training Practices for Olympic Endurance Sports: Insights From World-Class Coaches - Haugen et al. 2026Determinants of Physiological Resilience Among Recreational-To-Competitive Endurance Runners - Malinen et al. 2026Ten Common Criticisms of the Critical Power Model Revisited - Black et al. 2026The effectiveness of polarized versus high-intensity training in moderately trained cyclists: a randomized parallel-design study - Moran-MacDonald et al. 2026Best-Practice Training Characteristics Within Olympic Endurance Sports as Described by Norwegian World-Class Coaches - Sandbakk et al. 2025Strength Training Improves Running Economy Durability and Fatigued High-Intensity Performance in Well-Trained Male Runners: A Randomized Control Trial - Zanini et al. 2025Effects of Exercise Training on Mitochondrial and Capillary Growth in Human Skeletal Muscle: A Systematic Review and Meta-Regression - Mølmen et al. 2024 SPONSORS: Precision Fuel & Hydration produce our favourite gels, sports drinks, and electrolyte and carbohydrate products here at That Triathlon Show and Scientific Triathlon.

Matt recaps his 2:33 Sydney Marathon in jeans, then dives into recovery, weight loss, fueling, strength training, Melbourne Marathon goals and what comes next. Matt Fox / Sweat Elite Coaching: https://www.sweatelitecoaching.com/matt-fox/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattinglisfox/ Strava: https://www.strava.com/athletes/6248359 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SweatElite Sweat Elite: https://www.sweatelite.co/ Sweat Elite Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sweatelite/ Three days after the Sydney Marathon, Matt breaks down his 2:33:38 run in jeans and what he is currently calling the fastest known marathon in jeans. He talks through the pacing strategy, running with the 2:35 pacer through 30km, dealing with hamstring cramping late in the race, how much the jeans may have slowed him down and how Sydney compares with a flatter marathon course. Matt also goes deep into marathon recovery, including the roughly 310g of carbohydrates and 50g of protein he consumed in the first 90 minutes after finishing. He discusses sleep, returning to training after a marathon, strength and mobility work, cramping, chafing, shoe choices and why he believes his recovery has been significantly better than after many previous marathons. Weight loss remains a major topic as Matt explains how he has gone from around 86kg to roughly 73kg over the past four months while continuing to train at a high level. He discusses calorie deficits on easier days, carbohydrate cycling around workouts and long runs, strength training while losing weight, GLP-1 use, maintaining power while getting lighter and why he believes reaching approximately 69kg could put him back around PB shape for Melbourne. Matt finishes by answering listener questions on Sydney's hills, marathon course conversions, how long runners can continue improving with age, shoe durability, recovering between Sydney and Melbourne, preventing marathon cramps and future costume marathon attempts. He also shares his plan to move to Lisbon later this year and spend more time racing and training in Europe.

Varför springer vissa in i den berömda väggen på maraton medan andra lyckas hålla ihop farten hela vägen? I veckans avsnitt djupdyker Tommy och Simon i en omfattande review om fenomenet "hitting the wall" och begreppet durability – alltså kroppens förmåga att stå emot den ökande tröttheten under ett långt lopp. Vi går igenom varför glykogen och energitillgång spelar en central roll, men också varför väggning är betydligt mer komplext än att bara "få slut på energi". Pacing, vätska, värme, löpekonomi, muskulär uthållighet och den mentala biten spelar alla in. Dessutom pratar vi om varför långpassen är så viktiga, hur du kan träna upp din durability och varför en bra energiplan aldrig kan kompensera för bristande träning. Ett avsnitt för dig som vill förstå vad som faktiskt händer när maraton börjar göra riktigt ont – och framför allt hur du kan skjuta väggen längre fram.

Recorded live at Seattle Tech Week, this episode of Founded & Funded brings together two people who track the AI capital markets from different vantage points:  ⁨Pitchbook⁩  EVP of Research & Market Intelligence Nizar Tarhuni, and Madrona Partner Sabrina Albert. These two dig into where AI venture capital is actually landing across the model, infrastructure, and application layers, why AI "harnesses" are becoming a winner-takes-most category, and where vertical AI applications may hold an edge that horizontal platforms can't match. They also cover PitchBook's VC Exit Predictor, the new normal for AI seed valuations, and the tranche-financing structures Nizar says are red flags for founders. And in a live Q&A, they take on a frequently asked question in the AI market: Is this a bubble? Nizar explains why he thinks it's still too early to call, what the data says about the value already being created, and why the next few stages of company growth will tell us much more about which valuations prove durable. For founders raising capital right now, or operators trying to figure out where durable value is emerging in AI, this conversation offers a data-grounded look at what's happening beneath the headline numbers.

As lifestyles evolve, so does home design. Homeowners want flexible spaces, more privacy, stronger connections to the outdoors and finishes that reflect their personal style. The result is a shift toward homes that aren’t just attractive but also work for the way people actually live.  Kelley Collins, design studio manager with Ashton Woods, recently joined Carol Morgan on Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio to discuss how thoughtful design can balance function, personality and timeless style — and why the best homes don’t necessarily follow the latest trend.  Home Design Starts With How People Live  “We always joke that your lighting is like jewelry for your favorite outfit,” Collins said.  Lighting can transform a room, highlight architectural features and draw attention to artwork or other focal points. But good design goes beyond what catches the eye. It starts with understanding how people will use a space.  That has become particularly important as more people work, study, exercise and spend time at home. Rooms that once served a single purpose now may need to accommodate a home office, classroom, playroom, workout area or guest space.  Flex Rooms Give Homeowners More Options  Flex rooms offer a clear example of home design adapting to changing needs. A home office today could become a study space for a child tomorrow. A playroom could eventually become a hobby room, exercise area or guest room. Adaptability matters even more for multigenerational households. Rising living costs have contributed to more families living with parents or in-laws, making privacy and separation increasingly important. Doors, finished basements and multipurpose rooms can help families accommodate more people without making everyone feel like they’re living on top of each other.  For homebuyers, it’s worth looking beyond how a floor plan works today. Consider how a room could serve the household five or 10 years from now.  Open Floor Plans Meet the Need for Privacy  Open-concept living remains popular, but the way people use their homes has prompted a closer look at privacy. An open kitchen, dining and living area can make entertaining easier and create a strong sense of connection. But when several people work, study or relax at the same time, too much openness can become a challenge. Interior doors, pocket doors and strategically placed private rooms can provide some separation without giving up the benefits of an open layout.  Rather than choosing between open and closed floor plans, homeowners increasingly want a balance between shared spaces and places to retreat.  Personalization Should Go Beyond Trends  Personalization plays an important role in the design process, but it looks different for every homeowner. Some buyers want to customize nearly every selection. Others prefer a more restrained palette and use one or two features, such as a distinctive backsplash or lighting fixture, to make the home feel like their own.  The goal is to create a cohesive design that reflects the homeowner without relying too heavily on a short-lived trend.  “If they do have that bold design or that style that they want to incorporate, they really do it with intention,” Collins said.  That doesn’t mean homeowners need to avoid bold choices. Instead, they should consider how those choices fit into the rest of the home and whether they’ll still feel right years from now.  Timeless Design Can Still Evolve  Home design trends constantly change. Cabinet colors have moved from dark finishes to gray and white and are now shifting toward warmer tones. Light and medium wood tones and off-white finishes are gaining popularity as gray and stark white interiors become less dominant.  Trend cycles make timeless design valuable. Buyers want their homes to feel current, but they also want to feel comfortable with their choices years after construction ends. A neutral foundation provides flexibility, while lighting, furnishings, artwork and hardware can add personality and allow homeowners to update their spaces over time.  Design for Durability and Everyday Life  A beautiful home also needs to hold up to everyday life. Flooring and countertops offer good examples. Natural hardwood remains popular, while engineered luxury vinyl flooring attracts buyers who value durability. Quartz continues to appeal to homeowners who appreciate its consistency and low maintenance, even as designers continue to value the character of natural stone. Aesthetics are only part of the decision. Families with children, pets or frequent guests may prioritize different materials than homeowners looking for a low-maintenance second home or an entertainment-focused space.  The Kitchen Remains the Heart of the Home  For all the changes in home design, some priorities remain remarkably consistent.  In the kitchen, an island can provide food preparation space, seating, a gathering point for family and friends and a place for homework or casual conversation. Other features, such as spa-inspired showers, reflect the same desire to make everyday spaces more enjoyable. Ultimately, good design isn’t just about making a room look good. It should make the room work better, too.  Trust the Design Process  For buyers building a new home, the number of decisions can quickly become overwhelming. Flooring, cabinets, countertops, tile, lighting and fixtures all contribute to the final result. A design professional can help homeowners understand how individual selections work together and where to focus their investment. Instead of making every decision at once, buyers can work through selections step by step and build a cohesive design.  The Future of Home Design Will Follow Lifestyle  No one can predict exactly which colors, materials or architectural features will dominate home design five or 10 years from now. Trends will continue to change. What we can predict is that homes will continue to adapt to the people who live in them. Flexible rooms can accommodate changing needs. Private spaces can balance open gathering areas. Outdoor living can extend a home’s usable space. Personalization can make a house feel distinctly like its owners. The most enduring design principle may be the simplest: Start with how people live and design from there. The goal is to create a home that represents the homeowner so well that “10 years down the road they still love their home.” That may ultimately separate a home that simply follows a trend from one that continues to feel right long after the trend has passed.  To learn more about home design trends and how lifestyles influence the way homes are built, listen to the full episode of Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio.

Original Air Date: 08/08/26 Episode Number: 471Episode SummaryDan's son Caleb stopped in to pick up primer and ended up on the radio. He bought his first house -- a 1901-era fixer-upper -- and has spent the past several months dealing with cat smells in a crawl space, a squirrel that chewed through wiring, a dead possum under the floorboards, and the humbling experience of learning to cut in a straight line for the first time. The back half of the conversation covers paint choices, color coverage, the trades versus college, and what it's actually like to be six years into a career as an electrician.Timestamps[00:00] -- Meet Caleb the Guest[01:33] -- First Walkthrough Shock[03:04] -- Cat Smells and the Crawl Space[04:21] -- Enzyme Cleaner Fiasco[07:02] -- Sealing Odor Hotspots[09:26] -- Squirrel in the Ceiling[12:54] -- Dead Possum Discovery[15:22] -- First Time Painting Lessons[19:27] -- Color Choices and Coverage[22:13] -- Choosing the Wall Color[23:06] -- One Coat vs. Two[23:47] -- Ceiling Paint Lessons[25:50] -- Vanity Makeover Plan[27:16] -- DIY Confidence Tips[30:27] -- Trades Talk Break[31:09] -- Back in Studio[31:36] -- Living With Messes[34:05] -- Skipping College[37:24] -- Why Trades Work[40:39] -- Trade Life Humor[42:27] -- Wrap UpThe House [01:33]Built somewhere around 1901 -- "early 1901" on the listing, which Caleb says basically means they don't really know. Good news on move-in day: the electrical had already been updated, which mattered a lot to an electrician who knew exactly what that job would have cost him. The first thing visible when you walked through the door was a dining room painted in the brightest Barbie pink either of them had ever seen. Online listing photos had made it look like a warm sunset. In person it looked like Pepto-Bismol. That was the cosmetic problem. The real problem was the smell.Cat Smells and the Crawl Space [03:04]Three confirmed cats, possibly four, had been using the dirt crawl space as a litter box for three or four years. The crawl space starts at about two feet of clearance and drops to six to eight inches near the outer walls -- full belly-crawl territory. Caleb suited up with a respirator, goggles, a painter's suit, and a child's garden rake with four metal prongs that he says will remain in a place of honor in the basement indefinitely. It goes with him before the fishing poles if there's ever a fire.He went through the crawl space with enzymatic cleaner -- but the first jug he bought was formulated for outdoor use, and it didn't make a dent on the smell. He went back to the store, found a cat-specific enzymatic formula, and ended up buying about eight small spray bottles to fill a pressurized sprayer. That worked. A dehumidifier finished the job on the residual musty smell -- now when you open the basement door, it just smells like a normal old stone basement.On enzymatic cleaners: Use a formula specifically designed for the type of odor you're dealing with. Outdoor or general-purpose formulas may not be strong enough for concentrated pet waste. Cat-specific formulas are made for exactly this situation.On crawl space odors: Garden lime thrown down on a dirt crawl space can help neutralize pH and absorb lingering smells after the source is removed.Sealing Odor Hotspots [07:02]There was a small alcove near the stairs where foam gym flooring had soaked up years of cat urine. Caleb pulled it up and needed to seal the subfloor underneath before putting anything new down.The right product for this kind of situation is a shellac-based primer like BIN -- it seals odors and dries fast. Dan didn't have any shellac on hand, but he did have an old can of oil-based polyurethane that tested out fine, and for a clear coat application it worked well. The key advantage of a clear coat over a pigmented primer in odor situations: pigment can leave microscopic paths for odor to work through. A clear film seals more completely. Caleb put new subfloor down over the top and sealed that too.Squirrel in the Ceiling [09:26]The home inspection had flagged a squirrel living above the breezeway entry. The smell coming out of that space was serious enough that Dan wasn't sure it would ever clear up. Caleb got the squirrel out, sealed the entry point, and eventually pulled down the ceiling to assess the damage -- and found something more significant than anyone expected.The squirrel had chewed through the outer jacket on two sets of wires, exposing bare copper hot, neutral, and ground conductors. There was visible charring around the wiring. The breaker had tripped on one of Dan's early walkthroughs; at the time nobody knew why. The wiring had apparently been in this condition long enough that it's surprising no fire resulted.Caleb rewired the affected circuits and closed everything up properly. Point worth keeping: if animals get into a wall or ceiling space and stay there, wiring damage is a real possibility. It's not just a smell and mess problem. If you know or suspect animals have been living in a structural space, the wiring in that area is worth checking before you close it back up.Dead Possum Under the Floor [12:54]After the squirrel situation was resolved, the entry still smelled. As the weather warmed up, it got worse. Caleb pulled up a damaged section of subfloor near the breezeway door, expecting to find the water damage he'd spotted -- and found a dead, decomposing possum that had apparently gotten in through the same entry point as the squirrel and not gotten back out.He called his best friend, who arrived with a square shovel and leather gloves. The possum got a burial in the backyard. The subfloor was treated with enzymatic cleaner, the entry point sealed, and the floor rebuilt.Dan's contribution to the discovery call: asking whether Caleb was sure it was dead, and suggesting he try touching its eye to confirm. Caleb reported there was no eye. Dan agreed that was probably a reliable indicator.First Time Painting [15:22]Caleb had essentially never painted before -- Dan had handed him a brush with no paint on it as a kid and sent him into another room. This house was his real introduction.The biggest struggle was cutting in at the ceiling line without tape. He and his brother Andrew started by eye on the first room and the difference in their speed was immediate and obvious -- Andrew was moving at several times Caleb's pace, and Caleb's edges were rough. The key things Caleb took away from the experience:A good brush matters more than most people realize going in. People often reach for tiny brushes thinking more control, but a quality full-size brush is easier to work with, not harder. Practice builds speed and confidence faster than expected -- Andrew went from nervous to confident within a month of his first exterior painting summer. And the work itself is harder than it looks when someone skilled does it in front of you.Andrew ended up painting most of the house -- the kitchen, dining room, living room, and upstairs. Caleb handled a fair amount of the cutting in and ceiling work.Color Choices and Coverage [19:27]Caleb's fiancée Melanie handled all the interior color selections, which Caleb describes as a great decision. Dan had expected conservative colors based on Caleb's personality and was surprised to get a list of deep, saturated choices -- a near-teal green, dark forest tones, rich colors throughout. His instinct was that deep colors would require multiple coats to cover the lighter existing walls.They used RepcoLite Optima, and the coverage surprised Dan enough that he brought it up on air. Deep colors don't naturally hide better just because they have more pigment -- the colorant system and the base paint matter. Optima's combination of formula and colorant system delivered coverage close to what you'd hope for after one coat, and two coats finished the job cleanly.The favorite room is the living room, painted in Yorktown Green -- a deep blue-green Benjamin Moore color that reads almost like a rich teal. They had originally planned a different color and switched at the last minute. It turned out to be everyone's favorite.One Coat vs. Two [23:06]Even when one coat coverage looks surprisingly good -- and in this case it did -- two coats is always the right call. The second coat evens out color uniformity, improves sheen consistency, eliminates lap marks and differences between brushed and rolled areas, and builds the film thickness the paint was designed to have. Durability depends on having enough coating on the surface.Ceiling Paint Lesson [23:47]Caleb chose a creamy, slightly warm off-white for the ceilings rather than straight white. Dan went with bright white on his own ceiling at home and regrets it -- it reads as plasticky and a little harsh compared to a softer white. The warmer ceiling tone makes the rooms feel finished rather than clinical. Dan says he's living with it but won't make that choice again.Painting angled ceilings with a hip roof is harder than flat ceilings. The angles create back strain and make it difficult to track where you've been. On flat ceilings, working in a consistent grid pattern and watching for the shine of wet paint to see where you've covered is the practical method.Vanity Project and Ebonizing [25:50]Caleb is in the store today to pick up primer for a bathroom vanity he's painting. He had tried ebonizing the wood first -- a technique where you soak steel wool in vinegar for

For most of the last forty years, irritable bowel syndrome was treated as a problem of the gut alone. The idea that the brain plays a central role took decades to gain acceptance, and it remains contested today.In this episode of The Mind-Gut Conversation, Dr. Mayer is joined by Dr. Erin Mauney, a pediatric gastroenterologist and researcher at Harvard and Massachusetts General Hospital, who has completed one of the first clinical trials of psilocybin-assisted therapy for patients with treatment-resistant IBS.They discuss why a compound acting primarily on the brain might change how the gut is experienced, what happens when the brain's prediction machinery becomes locked into a cycle of pain and anticipation, and why the therapy surrounding the dosing sessions may matter as much as the molecule itself.The conversation also takes on the harder questions. How do you run a placebo-controlled trial when every participant knows they received the drug? Can the psychedelic experience be engineered out of psychedelic medicine, and what is lost if it is? And what can practices used ritually for millennia still teach a reductionist Western model of care?This is early-stage science, and Dr. Mauney is refreshingly clear about the limits of what is currently known. It is also a glimpse at what the next chapter of brain-gut medicine might look like.Topics discussed include:• Why IBS is best understood as a disorder of gut-brain interaction• How the brain's predictive coding can become locked into chronic pain• What psilocybin-assisted therapy actually involves, session by session• Whether the psychedelic experience itself is essential to the benefit• The placebo problem in psychedelic trials, and why it may be unsolvable• How long the benefits appear to last after treatment ends• Where psychedelic research in gastroenterology may be headedThis is a careful, evidence-based conversation for anyone interested in IBS, chronic pain, and the future of brain-gut medicine.Chapters:0:00 - Introduction3:23 - IBS as a Brain-Gut Disorder7:40 - Entering Psychedelic Research13:22 - How Psilocybin Could Affect the Gut15:43 - Inside the Trial17:50 - The Brain and Pain Prediction21:18 - Side Effects and Patient Experience25:40 - Does the Psychedelic Experience Matter?29:57 - Ritual and Western Medicine32:15 - The Placebo Question36:33 - Combining Therapies39:10 - Brain Imaging40:56 - Practical Challenges44:07 - Durability of Benefits47:23 - Overlap With Other Conditions49:28 - Where the Research Goes Next54:11 - Looking Ahead

Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) eliminated those tax credits. How much damage did that do to the overall trajectory of clean energy in the post-Trump world? A new research commentary argues that the damage was less than many had feared and that the road forward for clean energy is less about restoring those credits than about easing the permitting and interconnection constraints inhibiting renewable energy.

A century-old tech company just took a gut punch from Wall Street. A century-old oil giant hasn't had an exciting headline in years. Ten years from now, which one do you actually want to own?In this episode, Greg takes the long view on two very different dividend payers. The first is IBM ($IBM), a stock that ran from the low $200s to a high near $325 over the past year as its quantum computing story caught fire. It then dropped back to around $205 after disappointing contract delays spooked the market. Greg walks through why the selloff isn't the end of the story: IBM's debt has improved, revenue is growing again after years of stagnation, and at roughly 17 times earnings, he argues investors are no longer paying for the quantum computing option.The second is Chevron ($CVX), a stock with none of IBM's drama and, in Greg's view, almost all of the certainty. Diversified across exploration, refining, and chemicals, with a dividend track record that held even when oil prices went negative in 2020, Chevron represents a different kind of long-term bet. It's not a call option on a breakthrough, but a compounding cash flow machine that is also a quiet beneficiary of AI.Two very different companies, one shared idea: real wealth is built by holding through the boring years, not by chasing the exciting ones.TOPICS COVERED[00:41] Introduction: Two Long-Term Stories, Two Different Bets [03:04] IBM ($IBM): From Story Stock to Speed Bump [04:47] Inside IBM's Business: Software, Consulting, and Red Hat [08:41] The Quantum Computing Bet Behind the Stock [13:44] IBM's 10-Year Dividend Growth Math [16:24] Chevron ($CVX): The Cash Flow Machine [18:17] Chevron's Dividend Track Record and Financial Strength [20:40] Diversification: Upstream, Downstream, and Chemicals [21:15] Chevron as a Natural Gas and AI Play [23:49] Why Chevron Over Exxon ($XOM)? [25:45] Two Long Views, One Lesson in Patience [28:02] Final Takeaway: It's All About the Waiting ________ 

Today, Pastor Jack teaches that durability means drawing closer to God, especially during hard and dangerous times. Trouble is not a reason to quit. A strong believer follows Christ, not just in word, but in actions as well.

Today, Pastor Jack teaches us that we need to resist false doctrine and fight against evil in our world. As believers, we can't just be spectators while darkness advances around us. Instead, we're called to stand firm on God's Word, even when it's hard or unpopular.

Today, Pastor Jack teaches that we must consider what's at stake. Our faith in Jesus Christ is the most valuable thing we have, and everything else in life depends on it. When we understand the eternal significance of staying faithful, it changes how we approach every challenge.

Two riders can have the same fresh numbers and completely different results. This week: a study that says you might be able to grow your blood while you sleep, just by tilting the bed.

Matt Risinger explores one of the most misunderstood topics in building science: vapor control. Sponsored by Huber Engineered Woods, the episode explains why managing moisture is less about stopping vapor and more about preventing condensation inside building assemblies. Using a replay from the Building Science 101 series with Steve Baczek, Matt breaks down how vapor moves through walls, roofs, and floors, why climate and material selection matter, and how builders can make smarter decisions about vapor retarders and air barriers. The conversation focuses on practical building science principles that improve durability, moisture management, and long-term building performance rather than relying on outdated rules of thumb.

Fifty years ago the U.S. government classified it alongside heroin: no accepted medical use, high potential for abuse, illegal in most of the world. The peer-reviewed data now coming out of Johns Hopkins, Imperial College, and Nature tells a different story, one that has some of the most credentialled neuroscientists alive rethinking how the brain heals. In this episode, Louisa breaks down exactly what psilocybin does to your neurons, why it works where antidepressants stall for decades, and where the research is heading right now. She walks through the default mode network, the self-referential system that turns rigid and hyperactive in depression, and the 2024 Nature study that described psilocybin's effect on it as "massive" disruption. You'll hear how a single dose drove a measurable jump in dendritic spine density within 24 hours, why psilocin binds the TRKB receptor 300 times more strongly than any conventional antidepressant, and how Robin Carhart-Harris's head-to-head trial against escitalopram produced more than double the remission rate. Then she turns to addiction, where psilocybin-assisted therapy reached an 80% smoking abstinence rate at six months in the Johns Hopkins pilot, more than double the best medication available today. She covers the risks the drug-war narrative leaves out, the hard contraindications around psychosis and cardiac history, the April 2026 executive order that accelerated federal review, and why the quality of the subjective experience, measured on the Mystical Experience Questionnaire, may matter to the outcome as much as the molecule itself. You'll also hear about the desynchronization event and what fills the space when the network goes offline, BDNF and how it stacks up against high-intensity exercise, the alcohol and opioid data, HPPD, Australia's 2023 reclassification, Oregon and Colorado's state access frameworks, and why set and setting may be active ingredients in how the treatment works.

Ross explains why you have to drain the anaerobic battery before the 20 minute test, why pacing a time trial on your own is harder than you think, and why the biggest limitation in the study might not be physiologyThe World Cup is into the knockout rounds and listener Robert Ridley has done the maths on whether teams that go to extra time are at a disadvantage in the next game. The answer might be yes, about 1.5x more likely to lose if they play a team who hadn't had ET the game before, but we discover the confounding factor that complicates that findingA proposal resurfaced on Discourse and social media this week for a structural fix to extra time football, one that involves running the penalty shootout before the 30 minutes rather than after it. Ross explains where the idea came from, what the data says about goals in extra time, and why football fans on social media were not especially receptiveMoving onto athletics, Audrey Werro ran 1:53.80 in Paris, another personal best that edges her closer to the oldest WR in the sport, but we explain why the record attempt fell short, and what her split data tells you about the mindset that Werro and Hodgkinson need to bring to their races to really threaten the WR. Femke Bol is now in the picture too, and her progression curve is worth paying close attention toMarco Arop ran 1:41.84 in the men's 800 and declared he is going for Rudisha's world record.

The internet reacted badly, including a memorable contribution from Johan Bruyneel. We make the case that smaller teams might actually create more dynamic racing and more opportunities for smaller squads, with the acceptance that there are economic factors in play.

This week's episode of The MacRumors Show focuses on Apple's surprise price hikes, the potential impact on the iPhone 18 lineup, new Apple Watch Ultra 4 rumors, and camera-equipped AirPods coming in 2027.00:51 Apple Price Hikes Overview 02:00 iPhone 18 Price Hike Expectations 03:58 RAM/Storage Cost Breakdown 09:36 Why Upgrading Yearly Isn't Necessary 11:49 When Could Price Hikes Hit? 16:30 Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 Rumors 21:05 Apple Watch Health Features and Market Plateau 24:24 Should Apple Slow Down Annual Watch Releases? 33:18 iPhone 18 Pro: Colors and Durability 34:50 Foldable iPhone Launch Timing and Demand 38:11 AirPods With CamerasApple has raised prices across nearly its entire product lineup, including Macs, iPads, Apple TV, HomePod, and Vision Pro, citing soaring RAM and flash storage costs driven by AI infrastructure demand. Price increases ranged from $30 to as much as $1,300, while iPhones, AirPods, Studio Display, and accessories were left unchanged for now. Apple also brought back the 256GB Mac mini at a higher $799 price.Those same component costs could lead to significant iPhone 18 Pro price increases this fall. Industry estimates suggest Apple may need to raise prices by around $270 to maintain margins, with the iPhone 18 Pro potentially starting around $1,399 and the Pro Max around $1,499, partly due to more expensive camera hardware.The iPhone 18 Pro is expected to retain its aluminum design while introducing new colors, including a signature Dark Cherry finish, though reports suggest the finishes could be prone to chipping similar to last year's models.Apple is still expected to launch the iPhone 18 lineup alongside its first foldable iPhone, tentatively called the iPhone Ultra, in September. The foldable is rumored to feature a 7.8-inch inner display, 5.5-inch outer display, A20 chip, C2 modem, Touch ID, dual rear cameras, and a starting price around $2,000.The episode also covers rumors that the Apple Watch Ultra 4 and Apple Watch Series 12 will debut this fall with faster processors and new watch faces in watchOS 27.Finally, Apple has reportedly delayed its camera-equipped AirPods to 2027. Rather than taking photos or videos, the embedded cameras will feed visual information to Siri for object recognition, contextual assistance, reminders, and navigation. The delay is reportedly due to Apple's ongoing AI development challenges.00:51 Apple Price Hikes Overview 02:00 iPhone 18 Price Hike Expectations 03:58 RAM/Storage Cost Breakdown 09:36 Why Upgrading Yearly Isn't Necessary 11:49 When Could Price Hikes Hit? 16:30 Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 Rumors 21:05 Apple Watch Health Features and Market Plateau 24:24 Should Apple Slow Down Annual Watch Releases? 33:18 iPhone 18 Pro: Colors and Durability 34:50 Foldable iPhone Launch Timing and Demand 38:11 AirPods With Cameras

The excitement is back in Miami after the Heat's blockbuster acquisition of Giannis Antetokounmpo, and the conversation quickly turns to just how dangerous this new-look roster can be. The guys discuss Giannis' durability and whether his physical style of play should ease concerns about long-term health, while also debating if Miami now boasts the best defensive team in the NBA. With Giannis joining a culture built around toughness and accountability, the crew explores the Heat's realistic championship ceiling, where they stack up against the rest of the Eastern Conference, and what additional moves Pat Riley could make to complete the roster. The consensus: Miami is officially back in the title conversation

Most serious cyclists ride their easy days a little too hard. A new study suggests that costs you fatigue and recovery without buying any extra fitness.20 trained amateur runners, matched for volume, trained for six weeks either at the top of the moderate domain or 10 to 15 percent below it. Both groups improved by the same amount, but the higher group paid more in perceived effort and recovery.
