SpaceTime with Stuart Gary Gary - Series 29 Episode 15In this episode of SpaceTime, we uncover intriguing discoveries about Mercury's geological activity, NASA's innovative Dragonfly mission to Titan, and the environmental impacts of rocket fuel pollution.Mercury's Surprising StreaksA new study reveals bright streaks, or lineae, on Mercury's surface, suggesting the planet is not as geologically inactive as previously thought. Researchers from the University of Bern utilized machine learning to analyze over 100,000 images from NASA's MESSENGER spacecraft, discovering that these streaks are likely caused by the outgassing of volatile materials from beneath Mercury's crust. This finding indicates ongoing geological processes and will be further explored by the BepiColombo mission, set to reach Mercury later this year.NASA's Dragonfly Mission to TitanNASA is developing the Dragonfly, a car-sized rotocopter designed to explore Saturn's moon Titan, which features methane and ethane lakes. Scheduled for launch in 2028, Dragonfly will utilize Titan's dense atmosphere to fly to various locations, examining environments that may harbor organic materials essential for life. The mission builds on the success of the Ingenuity rotocopter on Mars, with extensive testing underway to ensure optimal performance in Titan's unique conditions.Rocket Fuel Pollution and the Ozone LayerA recent study highlights the damaging effects of burning rocket fuels, such as kerosene, on Earth's ozone layer. The report indicates that the rapid growth of the rocket launch industry is exacerbating this issue, particularly affecting regions like Antarctica and parts of Australia. Researchers are calling for restrictions on the use of these fuels to mitigate environmental harm.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesNature Communications, Earth and EnvironmentClimate and Atmospheric ScienceBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.(00:00:00) Streaks on the surface of Mercury suggesting it's not quite dead yet(00:11:13) Burning rocket fuel damages Earth's ozone layer, study finds(00:12:28) A new study claims cyber attacks can spark intense social media discussions(00:14:53) Apple bans anti woke Holly Valent song from iTunes in Australia(00:16:39) Apple has now had hypertension notifications authorized by the TGN(00:18:04) Space Time is available every Monday, Wednesday and Friday through bitesz. com
When you're in a high-conflict divorce, the behaviors often feel indistinguishable. Gaslighting. Manipulation. Control. Chaos. Emotional whiplash. It's why so many people fixate on one question: Is my spouse a narcissist? In this episode, I'm joined by licensed psychotherapist and narcissistic abuse expert Chelsey Brooke Cole to explore a deeper truth—when the impact on you feels the same, does the label actually matter? We unpack what narcissistic abuse truly is, how it overlaps with other forms of emotional and psychological abuse, and why abusers and narcissists often behave in nearly identical ways during divorce. Especially when they're losing control. Especially when the legal process becomes another tool for domination, punishment, and destabilization. This conversation is not about diagnosing your ex. It's about understanding patterns so you can stop internalizing blame, stop doubting your reality, and stop negotiating from fear. We talk about the internal experience of these dynamics—the fog, the shame, the fragmentation, the nervous system overload—and how those symptoms affect your ability to think clearly, make decisions, and advocate for yourself and your children. Most importantly, we focus on what actually helps. How to protect yourself emotionally and strategically during a high-conflict divorce. How to anticipate predictable escalations. How to step out of reactivity and into steadiness. And how to begin rebuilding your sense of identity, self-worth, and agency after prolonged psychological control. If you're divorcing someone who feels impossible, unpredictable, or emotionally dangerous, this episode offers clarity, validation, and a path forward rooted in reality—not labels. Chelsey Brooke Cole is a licensed psychotherapist, certified partner trauma therapist, bestselling author of If Only I'd Known!, and a nationally recognized expert in narcissistic abuse and complex trauma. She has been featured in USA Today, Psychology Today, HuffPost, WKRN News 2, and FOX 26 Houston, and supports thousands of survivors through her clinical work, education, and trauma-informed programs. This episode is for anyone navigating a high-conflict divorce who needs to understand what's happening, why it's so destabilizing, and how to move forward without losing themselves in the process.

In this episode, Dr. David Puder hosts a discussion on schizoid personality dynamics through the lens of Franz Kafka's life and writings. Discover why the DSM-5's surface-level criteria for schizoid personality disorder falls short, often missing the intense inner conflict between a profound yearning for connection and a paralyzing fear of engulfment. Drawing on the Psychodynamic Diagnostic Manual (PDM), Nancy McWilliams' insightful perspectives, and Kafka's unsent "Letter to His Father" plus classics like "The Metamorphosis," the group explores how schizoid traits differ from autism, involve hypersensitivity rather than social cue deficits, and manifest in creative, introspective individuals.

Stewart Alsop interviews Tomas Yu, CEO and founder of Turn-On Financial Technologies, on this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast. They explore how Yu's company is revolutionizing the closed-loop payment ecosystem by creating a universal float system that allows gift card credits to be used across multiple merchants rather than being locked to a single business like Starbucks. The conversation covers the complexities of fintech regulation, the differences between open and closed loop payment systems, and Yu's unique background that combines Korean martial arts discipline with Mexican polo culture. They also dive into Yu's passion for polo, discussing the intimate relationship between rider and horse, the sport's elitist tendencies in different regions, and his efforts to build polo communities from El Paso to New Mexico. Find Tomas on LinkedIn under Tommy (TJ) Alvarez.Timestamps00:00 Introduction to TurnOn Technologies02:45 Understanding Float and Its Implications05:45 Decentralized Gift Card System08:39 Navigating the FinTech Landscape11:19 The Role of Merchants and Consumers14:15 Challenges in the Gift Card Market17:26 The Future of Payment Systems23:12 Understanding Payment Systems: Stripe and POS26:47 Regulatory Landscape: KYC and AML in Payments27:55 The Impact of Economic Conditions on Financial Systems36:39 Transitioning from Industrial to Information Age Finance38:18 Curiosity and Resourcefulness in the Information Age45:09 Social Media and the Dynamics of Attention46:26 From Restaurant to Polo: A Journey of Mentorship49:50 The Thrill of Polo: Learning and Obsession54:53 Building a Team: Breaking Elitism in Polo01:00:29 The Unique Bond: Understanding the Horse-Rider Relationship01:05:21 Polo Horses: Choosing the Right Breed for the GameKey Insights1. Turn-On Technologies is revolutionizing payment systems through behavioral finance by creating a decentralized "float" system. Unlike traditional gift cards that lock customers into single merchants like Starbucks, Turn-On allows universal credit that works across their entire merchant ecosystem. This addresses the massive gift card market where companies like Starbucks hold billions in customer funds that can only be used at their locations.2. The financial industry operates on an exclusionary "closed loop" versus "open loop" system that creates significant friction and fees. Closed loop systems keep money within specific ecosystems without conversion to cash, while open loop systems allow cash withdrawal but trigger heavy regulation. Every transaction through traditional payment processors like Stripe can cost merchants 3-8% in fees, representing a massive burden on businesses.3. Point-of-sale systems function as the financial bloodstream and credit scoring mechanism for businesses. These systems track all card transactions and serve as the primary data source for merchant lending decisions. The gap between POS records and bank deposits reveals cash transactions that businesses may not be reporting, making POS data crucial for assessing business creditworthiness and loan risk.4. Traditional FinTech professionals often miss obvious opportunities due to ego and institutional thinking. Yu encountered resistance from established FinTech experts who initially dismissed his gift card-focused approach, despite the trillion-dollar market size. The financial industry's complexity is sometimes artificially maintained to exclude outsiders rather than serve genuine regulatory purposes.5. The information age is creating a fundamental divide between curious, resourceful individuals and those stuck in credentialist systems. With AI and LLMs amplifying human capability, people who ask the right questions and maintain curiosity will become exponentially more effective. Meanwhile, those relying on traditional credentials without underlying curiosity will fall further behind, creating unprecedented economic and social divergence.6. Polo serves as a powerful business metaphor and relationship-building tool that mirrors modern entrepreneurial challenges. Like mixed martial arts evolved from testing individual disciplines, business success now requires being competent across multiple areas rather than excelling in just one specialty. The sport also creates unique networking opportunities and teaches valuable lessons about partnership between human and animal.7. International financial systems reveal how governments use complexity and capital controls to maintain power over citizens. Yu's observations about Argentina's financial restrictions and the prevalence of cash economies in Latin America illustrate how regulatory complexity often serves political rather than protective purposes, creating opportunities for alternative financial systems that provide genuine value to users.
Ben Dhiman has one of the best names in the sport, and he actually earned it. We talk nicknames, alter egos, and the wild cat energy he taps into when racing, then rewind to the thru hiking years that shaped his brain, his grit, and his need to keep pushing the edge. From the AT and CDT to the Hayduke and a full-on Himalayan mission in Nepal, Ben explains why big adventures can be both glorious and miserable, and why thru hiking can “ruin you” in the best and worst ways.Then we follow the pivot into trail running, pacing Hardrock almost by accident, showing up to races undertrained on hiking fitness and stubborn confidence, and eventually forcing the door down in Europe the old-school way, by racing hard and winning. We also get into family, balancing ambition with real life, his coaching philosophy, and why he treats winter as an off season where the work goes up and the pounding goes down.Chapters00:00 The Origins of the 'Demon' Nickname05:34 Mental Clarity Through Hiking08:25 The Impact of Thru-Hiking on Personal Growth11:38 Transitioning to Trail Running14:37 The Journey to Becoming a Competitive Runner17:34 Navigating the World of Sponsorships20:25 Racing in Europe vs. America23:23 The Challenge of Proving Oneself26:16 The Evolution of Thru-Hiking Experiences30:49 Navigating the Wilderness: From Maps to Experience33:18 The Call of the Himalayas: Planning the Adventure35:06 Challenges in the Himalayas: Red Tape and Realities37:58 Surviving the Elements: A Tale of Perseverance41:43 The Role of Guides: Navigating Culture and Communication43:24 Resupply Strategies: Making the Most of Local Resources45:29 Reflections on Thru-Hiking: Contentment and Progression49:35 Shifting Focus: From Thru-Hiking to Ultra Running56:22 The Addictive Nature of Adventure: Community vs. Solitude56:53 The Community of Thru-Hiking01:00:28 Mental States in Long-Distance Hiking01:05:57 The Dynamics of Team vs. Solo Hiking01:12:37 Coaching and Evolving as an Athlete01:19:05 Skiing as a Complement to Running01:20:56 The Journey of Thru-Hiking and Ultra Running01:21:28 Living Abroad and Competitive Spirit in SportsSupport our Sponsors: Sawyer: https://sawyerdirect.net/Janji (code: Freeoutside): https://snp.link/a0bfb726CS Coffee: CSinstant.coffeeGarage Grown Gear: https://snp.link/db1ba8abSubscribe to Substack: http://freeoutside.substack.comSupport this content on patreon: HTTP://patreon.com/freeoutsideBuy my book "Free Outside" on Amazon: https://amzn.to/39LpoSFEmail me to buy a signed copy of my book, "Free Outside" at jeff@freeoutside.comWatch the movie about setting the record on the Colorado Trail: https://tubitv.com/movies/100019916/free-outsideWebsite: www.Freeoutside.comInstagram: thefreeoutsidefacebook: www.facebook.com/freeoutside#Trailrunning #Runningnews #Outdoors #Outdooradventure
Why does Scripture so often portray women as central to God's work of redemption—even in stories of deep dysfunction and failure? In this episode, Dr. Ingrid Faro, Old Testament scholar and interim president of Northern Seminary, joins Dru Johnson to explore her groundbreaking work in Redeeming Eden: How Women in the Bible Advance the Story of Salvation. Dr. Faro shares how her personal journey through theological trauma, cultic church experiences, and academic discovery led her to reexamine Genesis 1–3 and the women of the Bible. She explains how Hebrew terms like ezer and tzelah (often translated “helper” and “rib”) have been misunderstood, how Eve's story actually radiates hope, and how strategic female figures consistently propel salvation history forward. The conversation also tackles misinterpretations of Genesis 3:16, the patterns of dysfunction and healing across the biblical narrative, and what the Bible really says about evil. This episode is a deep and hopeful reconsideration of gender, power, and goodness within the story of Scripture.

In the first video, we talked about the Metabolic Trinity. But why hasn't your doctor told you about it? In this video, we show the flaws in modern medical testing that make chronic illness invisible. Using three clinical studies, we explain why doctors check your blood instead of your tissues. We also look at why they don't test your actual energy levels. You'll learn about the "cellular trash" (MMWP) that makes you feel sick every day—and why your doctor never looks for it. This is why the medical system struggles to fix chronic illness, and why you can't wait for permission to start healing your own body.**Scientific References:*** *Dynamics of Basal Metabolic Rate During Absolute (Dry) Fasting* - Shows the 14% energy drop that blood tests miss.* *Content of Medium Molecular Weight Peptides During Absolute Fasting* - Explains the cellular trash that doctors don't measure.* *Clinical and Laboratory Criteria for Assessing Severity of Patients' Conditions* - Shows the gap between how patients feel and what medical tests show.**Helpful Resources:*** Dry Fasting Club: https://dryfastingclub.com* The Scorch Protocol Hub: https://dry-fasting-club.github.io/scorch-protocol/index.html**Medical Disclaimer:**The content in this video is for educational purposes only and is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Along the way, we trade personal tales, geek out on objective data, and laugh about how team dynamics can make or break your brag. Tune in for a fun, honest, and slightly spicy conversation!

Dave’s back from NAMM 2026 and has a little something to share about that. Actually three little somethings, so that’s where we start. But there’s more to say about that, and it’s not yet time, so we’ll extend the NAMM discussions into next week (and beyond?). For today, well, you don't become the Sauce Boss by chasing a gimmick. You hear how Bill Wharton built a real, working-musician career by leaning hard into what felt natural to him, starting with a Datil pepper, a pot of gumbo, and a simple idea: turn the gig into a gathering. From cooking onstage on New Year's Eve 1989 to feeding hundreds of people at festivals and never charging a dime for the food, Bill shows how blending music and food transformed shows from transactions into shared experiences. By creating a kitchen onstage, he stopped entertaining people just long enough to take their money and run, and instead built something with a life of its own, something that keeps audiences leaning in and coming back. As the conversation unfolds, you trace Bill's path from top-40 bar gigs to one-man-band independence, full-band firepower, and stages as far-flung as Saudi Arabia. You hear why learning your strengths and ruthlessly discarding what doesn't matter is not selfish, it's survival. From dynamics, gear choices, and in-ear monitors to the lessons behind Blind Boy Billy, Bill makes the case that longevity comes from clarity, connection, and doing your thing without apology. The message for working musicians is direct and empowering: build the show you want to play, build the life that supports it, and keep showing up ready to give.

Spicy and flavorful. People would eat all the sauce at his house So he made Liquid Summer hot sauce But he wanted to sell hot sauce at gigs. December 31, 1989 – made a pot of gumbo on stage to demo the hot sauce No one would ever have to pay for for my gumbo… 240,000 bowls later, here we are! 00:23:26 Blending music and food. It's better than entertaining people, taking the money, and run! 00:25:12 Food and music are good together Every good party has everyone hanging out in the kitchen Bill creates the kitchen on stage 00:26:33 That first Sauce Boss gig 00:28:16 It has a life of its own and takes care of itself It took 3.5 hours to know that this was going to work long-term 00:30:38 Bill: “Always looking for something distinctively mine…something unique” It's hard to do your own thing. 00:33:15 The typical sauce boss gig means cooking for 100 (or more) people 400 people at a festival (it took TWO pots of gumbo) 00:35:07 From Florida to Saudi Arabia Sauce Boss plays/cooks at an Air Force base in Saudi Arabia 00:37:09 A soul-shouting picnic of Rock and Roll Brotherhood One or two 75-minute sets The show never ends 00:40:16 Learn, and then KNOW your strengths Started playing top-40 gigs as a kid …and then realized that's a rat trap. Bill made a point of putting only the stuff that matters to him in his day…and his show. Being “greedy” about putting my thing out there.

On this episode, we're diving into six key forces reshaping the future of the freight industry. Hear how companies can navigate these trends to lay a foundation for lasting success.
In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I spotlight why SAP's AI and data strategy is changing the enterprise game.Highlights00:02 — We've got more changes to dig into here on the Cloud Wars Top 10, as we saw SAP soar up to number four. SAP had held the number five spot for a couple of years now, and moved up to number four. All those companies in the enterprise application space now have morphed into applications, agents, AI, and data companies, not just simple application companies anymore.00:42 — So, in this fast-changing environment, SAP has really stood out by dramatically outgrowing its other very, very capable competitors. I call these four pieces of the SAP portfolio the Four Horsemen of Business Transformation. So, those include Business Suite, Business AI, the Business Data Cloud, and the Business Technology Platform.01:40 — So, for SAP, its growth rate in its most recent quarter is 27%, and its cloud revenue is $6.14 billion. Microsoft came in second place with its Dynamics 365 enterprise apps, up 18%. SAP grew 50% faster. Workday, 14.6%, $2.24 billion. Oracle, overall apps were up 11%, $3.9 billion.02:50 — So, healthcare lagging there for Oracle, and then Salesforce, the biggest at $10.3 billion, but grew 8.6%. SAP grew about three times faster, which is a 200% differential there. What's interesting about this is business leaders looking to expand what they're doing with enterprise applications, especially to help transform their businesses, to get into the AI economy.03:45 — So, in a wide-open field with lots of choices, terrific competition, SAP stands out as the high-growth leader. Now, it's a little clunky to say enterprise apps, AI, agentic, and data, so if anybody comes up with a real code name for this, let me know. We'll see what happens there, and if you come up with a great name for it, you get a Cloud Wars beer mug. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

This is about reclaiming agency by understanding the structures you exist inside every day, and learning how to make them work for you instead of against you.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[07:13] Space is the forgotten fourth health pillar of ancient traditions[12:57] The universal feng shui basics that work across all home types [19:01] How to declutter with children in the house[35:55] Counteracting feng shui challenges in existing homes[45:37] How the five feng shui elements connect to cardinal directions [01:07:00] The story of how every glass desk in an office led to total business collapse within 24 hours[01:12:08] How do you feng shui an apartment when surrounded by other people's energy?[01:35:58] Why decorating against your geography creates energetic breaks that sabotage manifestation[01:41:24] Why rectangular spaces provide the necessary structure for manifesting, while domes keep you circling[01:52:26] Why feng shui is a living philosophy of presence and reverence, not a decorating techniqueJust starting out with Feng Shui and energy work?

In Teen Wolf 3×23, “Insatiable,” the pack is technically moving forward, but everything that matters is coming undone.There are two Stiles and only one real one, and while our Stiles survives the oni test, the relief barely has time to land. Void Stiles still has Lydia, our Stiles remembers everything the Nogitsune did while wearing his body, and it's becoming clear this possession has caused real, irreversible damage. Whatever is happening to Stiles isn't just supernatural — it's killing him. Not great news.Lydia is taken to Oak Creek, trapped in echoes of past violence and repurposed as a supernatural alarm system. If the pack gets close, she'll feel it — and the Nogitsune will know. It's cruel, efficient, and exactly the kind of psychological torment Beacon Hills specializes in.Back in town, Meredith Walker escapes Eichen House and reveals she can hear death before it happens, which is both incredibly useful and deeply bad news. At the same time, the twins are hunted with wolfsbane for reasons the episode refuses to explain, and Derek continues to appear exactly where the plot needs him, not where the emotional logic is begging for him.At Oak Creek, the Nogitsune makes his biggest move yet by stealing control of the oni and turning Noshiko's weapons against everyone. The fight erupts, and for one brief, shining moment, Alison Argent becomes exactly who she's been training to be. She kills an oni with the silver arrowhead she made herself — a hard-earned, deeply deserved win.Teen Wolf, of course, does not let that victory stand. An oni strikes back, and Alison is fatally wounded. Excuse us, but why??Chris arrives too late, because of course. The Nogitsune disappears once again. And the pack is left shattered and grieving, staring down a finale that no longer feels uncertain — only inevitable.“Insatiable” sets the endgame in motion in the most Teen Wolf way possible — messy, emotionally brutal, and light on connective logic. The board is set, the losses are real, and Beacon Hills reminds us, once again, that loving something in this town always comes with a body count.xoxoFotR

As the author of 'Til Death Do Us Part: A Practical Guide to Preparing for the Inevitable, Lynn helps open the door to meaningful discussions about death planning through the lived experience of widowhood.

Bass fishing is changing—and most anglers don't realize why.In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Steve Sammons, one of the leading fisheries biologists in the country, to break down bass population dynamics and how modern bass management decisions are directly impacting the fishing we experience today.We dive into how bass populations actually function inside lakes and rivers, including recruitment, mortality, fishing pressure, genetics, and habitat limitations—and why simply “adding more bass” isn't always the solution. Dr. Sammons explains how management strategies shape bass size structure, catch rates, and long-term sustainability, and where anglers often misunderstand what's really happening beneath the surface.Most importantly, we challenge anglers to shift their perspective—from blaming management agencies or fishing pressure to understanding the biological tradeoffs that drive bass fisheries. Whether you fish tournaments or just want better day-to-day fishing, this episode will change how you think about bass fishing, conservation, and management.If you've ever wondered why some lakes produce giants, why others feel “overfished,” or how angler behavior influences bass populations, this is a must-listen conversation.

This episode explores how to tell the difference between normal marriage struggles and covert narcissistic dynamics. We focus on the subtle patterns that create confusion, self-doubt, and the fear that you might be overreacting or expecting too much. Many people living inside covert narcissistic dynamics aren't dealing with constant conflict or obvious cruelty. Instead, they're navigating moments that almost feel normal—disagreements that never resolve, conversations that leave them questioning their memory, and attempts at grace that are never returned. Over time, that confusion becomes exhausting. In this episode, we walk through real-life examples of healthy conflict versus covert control, paying close attention to what happens when you offer softness, uncertainty, or benefit of the doubt. We talk about why mutual grace is a defining feature of healthy relationships—and what it means when that grace only flows in one direction. This conversation isn't about labeling your partner or diagnosing a relationship. It's about giving you language for what you feel, helping you notice patterns without self-blame, and restoring trust in your own internal signals. If you've ever wondered, “Is this just marriage—or is something else happening here?” this episode is designed to help you find clarity without pressure.
