Elephants are the largest living land mammal and today our planet is home to three species: the African bush elephant, the African forest elephant, and the Asian elephant.But a hundred thousand years ago, in the chilly depths of the Ice Age, multiple species of elephant roamed the earth: from dog-sized dwarf elephants to towering woolly mammoths.These gentle giants' evolutionary story and its parallels with that of humankind has long fascinated Dr Tori Herridge, a senior lecturer in evolutionary biology at the University of Sheffield, where - as a seasoned science broadcaster - she's also responsible for their Masters course in Science Communication.Tori has spent much of her life studying fossil elephants and the sites where they were excavated; trying to establish facts behind relics that are far beyond the reach of Radio Carbon Dating. To date she's discovered dwarf mammoths on Mediterranean islands, retraced the groundbreaking Greek expedition of a female palaeontologist in the early 1900s, and even held an ancient woolly mammoth's liver. (Verdict: stinky.)But as she tells Professor Jim Al-Khalili, this passion for fossil-hunting is not just about understanding the past: this information is what will help us protect present-day elephants and the world around them for future generations.Presented by Jim Al-Khalili Produced for BBC Studios by Lucy Taylor Reversion for World Service by Minnie Harrop

The Elephant in the Universe: 100-year search for dark matter Author: Govert Schilling The Big Bang's Clues: Non-Baryonic Matter and Failed Candidates Headline: Cosmic Evolution Demands New Matter; Neutrinos Fall Short The universe's evolution from the smooth, hot state after the Big Bang to its current clumpy structure of galaxies and clusters requires far more gravity than visible matter can provide. Everything we know, from atoms to stars, is classified as baryonic matter. However, the nature of dark matter must be different; it cannot be composed of atoms and is thus termed non-baryonic matter. In the early 1970s, Albert Bosma used radio telescopes to observe hydrogen gas far beyond visible galactic edges, confirming the widespread anomalous rotation curves found by Rubin and Ford. Early dark matter candidates included neutrinos, but their light, fast-moving nature ("hot dark matter") meant they would clump on vast scales first, contradicting observations of early small clumps. This led to the conclusion that dark matter must be "cold" and slow-moving. 1959

The Elephant in the Universe: 100-year search for dark matter Author: Govert Schilling New Puzzles, Speculative Theories, and the Future of the Hunt Headline: Dark Crisis Deepens with Anomalous Galaxies and Emergent Gravity Theories The search for dark matter faces new challenges, such as the discovery of dwarf galaxies (e.g., DF44, the Dragonfly Galaxy) that appear to lack dark matter, posing a problem for both standard dark matter theory and MOND. With direct WIMP detection still elusive, physicists explore highly speculative theories: primordial black holes (black holes born in the Big Bang), fuzzy dark matter, or decaying dark matter, though these lack observational evidence. Theoreticians like Erik Verlinde propose "emergent gravity," suggesting gravity is not fundamental but arises from a deeper reality, which could imply dark matter doesn't exist at all. The ongoing search involves particle physics, underground experiments, powerful telescopes like the future Extremely Large Telescope, and the International Space Station's AMS experiment looking for antimatter signals, as scientists continue to refine theories and devise new ways to observe the unseen 1956

The Elephant in the Universe: 100-year search for dark matter Author: Govert Schilling Echoes of the Big Bang and Deep Underground Searches for WIMPs Headline: CMB Confirms Dark Matter and Energy; XENON Searches Remain Elusive The Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), the oldest light in the universe from a few hundred thousand years after the Big Bang, provides crucial evidence for dark matter and dark energy. Analysis of its tiny temperature and density fluctuations precisely determines the universe's composition, independently confirming the need for both dark matter and dark energy even without other observations. Meanwhile, the direct hunt for WIMPs continues in deep underground laboratories like Gran Sasso in Italy, where massive, shielded experiments containing materials like liquid xenon aim to detect the exceedingly rare collisions of dark matter particles with atomic nuclei. These "xenon wars" have, to date, yielded "null results," intensifying the mystery. Only the DAMA experiment, using sodium iodide crystals, claims to have detected a seasonal dark matter effect, but its results remain unconfirmed by other teams. 1952

The Elephant in the Universe: 100-year search for dark matter Author: Govert Schilling  The Enigma of Dark Energy and Einstein's Lost "Blunder" Headline: Universe's Acceleration Reveals Dark Energy, Validating Einstein's Constant Just as the search for dark matter intensified, cosmology faced a new puzzle: in 1998, two independent teams discovered that the universe's expansion is not slowing down but is, in fact, accelerating. This unexpected finding led to the concept of dark energy, a mysterious vacuum energy in empty space, as the force driving this acceleration. This revelation meant that visible baryonic matter accounts for only about 4.9% of the universe, with dark matter making up 26.6%, and dark energy a staggering 68.5%. Ironically, this unexpected acceleration harked back to Albert Einstein's "cosmological constant," a term he had introduced into his equations as an accelerating force to maintain a static universe and later deemed his "biggest blunder." The discovery of dark energy suggests Einstein may have had a profound, albeit unrecognized, foresight. 1941

The Elephant in the Universe: 100-year search for dark matter Author: Govert Schilling Headline: Particle Physics and Simulations Hunt for the Elusive WIMP The concept of cold dark matter, championed by cosmologists like Jim Peebles, describes particles that interact primarily through gravity but lack electrical charge, meaning they don't interact with light, magnetism, or strong nuclear forces. Their only potential interaction is a rare "bump" into an atomic nucleus via the weak nuclear force. This led to the theoretical candidate known as the Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP). Experiments at facilities like CERN's Large Hadron Collider, with its massive underground detectors, attempt to create and detect these WIMPsthrough high-energy particle collisions, though none have been found yet. Complementing this, computer simulations, such as IllustrisTNG, successfully model the universe's evolution from its smooth beginning to its current clumpiness, but only when incorporating cold dark matter with specific properties, guiding the ongoing search. . 1957

The Elephant in the Universe: 100-year search for dark matter Author: Govert Schilling Challenging Dogma: MOND and the Exclusion of MACHO Headline: Alternative Gravity, MOND, Contests Dark Matter Theory as MACHOs are Ruled Out Amidst the elusive search for dark matter, alternative theories have emerged. Mordehai Milgrom and his colleagues developed Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND), proposing that our understanding of gravity is flawed at galactic scales, thereby explaining rotational curves without needing dark matter. While some like Jeremiah Ostriker dismiss it, others such as Stacy McGaugh acknowledge its surprising success in fitting observational data. Gravitational lensing, as demonstrated by the Bullet Cluster, offers strong evidence for dark matter by showing separate distributions of mass and gas during galaxy collisions, challenging MOND. Meanwhile, another dark matter candidate, Massive Compact Halo Objects (MACHOs)—very massive, compact objects in galactic halos—was extensively searched for in the 1990s using gravitational microlensing. Despite significant effort, these searches yielded no detections, effectively ruling out MACHOs as the primary form of dark matter. 1958

The Elephant in the Universe: 100-year search for dark matter Author: Govert Schilling Theoretical Stability and Observational Proof of Dark Matter Halos Headline: Galaxies Need Invisible Halos: Ostriker and Rubin Provide Evidence In the late 1960s, theorist Jeremiah Ostriker calculated that a flattened galaxy like the Milky Way could not remain stable without a large, spherical "halo" of unseen matter surrounding it, providing a theoretical basis for dark matter. This theoretical need was then powerfully confirmed by the observational work of American astronomer Vera Rubin and her colleague Kent Ford throughout the 1970s. Studying distant galaxies, including Andromeda, they discovered that stars on the outer edges rotated at unexpectedly high, constant velocities, rather than slowing down as predicted. This "flattening the curve" of rotational velocities offered the first concrete proof for the existence of dark matter, whose gravity was necessary to prevent galaxies from flying apart. 1958

The Elephant in the Universe: 100-year search for dark matter Author: Govert Schilling The Century-Old Mystery Begins: Early Astronomical Observations Headline: Pioneers Uncover Unseen Gravitational Effects in the Cosmos In 1922, Jacobus Cornelius Kapteyn, a Dutch astronomer, was the first to introduce the term "dark matter" in a paper theorizing the arrangement and motion of the sidereal system, realizing unseen matter had gravitational effects within the Milky Way. A decade later, his student, Jan Oort, further identified the Milky Way's rotation and, by studying the up-and-down motions of stars, made an early estimate of dark matter in the galaxy's central plane. Building on this, Swiss astronomer Fritz Zwicky observed the Coma Cluster in California, using redshift to determine galaxy motions. He concluded there was more mass and gravity than visible, coining the German term "dunkle Materie," meaning "dark matter." These early 20th-century findings laid the groundwork for the ongoing dark matter mystery. 1957

Some Christians seem to be obsessed with modern-day Israel, while others act like it doesn't matter at all. But what does the Bible actually say about God's chosen people? In this message, Lead Pastor Jamie Nunnally wraps up our Elephants in the Room series by challenging us to think biblically about Israel.Today's topic is the relationship between Jews and Christians, the Old and New Testaments, and Israel's role in our faith. Some churches focus heavily on Christianity's Jewish roots and modern Israel, while others ignore them. Let's avoid two errors:Replacement theology – the belief that the Church has replaced Israel. Romans 11 makes it clear: God has not rejected Israel.Dual covenant theology – the idea that Jews are saved by the old covenant while Gentiles are saved by Jesus. Romans 3 and 30 affirm there is one way to salvation—faith in Christ, for everyone.The Messy MiddleBiblical balance comes from holding two tensions at once. Think of a see-saw: each truth needs equal weight. We don't dilute truth; we clarify it by holding multiple truths together.We must affirm both:Christians should bless Israel for their history and legacy and embrace Messianic Jews as spiritual family.Christians are not bound to follow Old Testament law, Jewish traditions, or to support modern Israeli politics.Blessing IsraelIsrael gave us the covenants, the law, the promises, and ultimately Christ (Romans 9:4-5, John 4:22). Messianic Jews are part of our spiritual family (Ephesians 2:14).No Obligation to Jewish Law or TraditionsThe law was a guardian until Christ came (Galatians 3:24). We now live by faith. The law convicts sinners—it's not a manual for saints (1 Timothy 1:8-9).Jewish customs are not required. Colossians 2 says these were shadows; Christ is the reality. God meets us where we are. Communion is about heart, not method.Political Support for IsraelYou don't have to support modern-day Israel's politics to be a faithful Christian. Understand the terms:Dispensationalism is a theological view that separates Israel and the Church in God's plan.Zionism is political, advocating for a Jewish homeland.Christian Zionism blends both, often linking Israel to end-times prophecy.Be cautious concerning blind support. Romans 9 and Galatians 6 remind us: not all who are descended from Israel are true Israel. Our allegiance is to God's kingdom above all nations.How Can We Bless Israel?Reject false saviors—Judaism without Jesus cannot save (Acts 4:12).Recognize priority—the gospel came to the Jew first (Romans 1:16).Remember God's promise—Israel's hard hearts are temporary (Romans 11:25-26).Preach Jesus—He is Messiah to Jew and Gentile alike (Acts 2:38).Israel's legacy is part of our faith story—but salvation is in Christ alone. Bless Israel, love the Jewish people, but follow Jesus into the messy middle: gratitude without obligation, love without blind loyalty, truth without compromise. When it comes to Israel, are you willing to follow Jesus into the messy middle?

NIMBY vs YIMBY? Is saying “no” to change protecting community character — or blocking the homes our cities desperately need? In this episode, we sit down with Jonathan O’Brien, lead organizer of YIMBY Melbourne, to unpack what’s at stake when communities resist — or embrace — change. We dig into whether opposing development is simply selfish or a legitimate defense of lifestyle and character, and whether YIMBY optimism sometimes overlooks practical realities. From heritage streetscapes and leafy suburbs to missing-middle density and downsizer demand, this is a frank look at the trade-offs that come with growth. Jonathan also explores the politics of planning: why local councils resist, why states override, and why those locked out of housing are the most under-represented stakeholders in the debate. We tackle sensitive questions about fairness: who pays when new homes aren’t built, and who loses when change does come? If you’ve ever wondered why housing reform feels so stuck, and why both sides of the NIMBY/YIMBY divide can be right and wrong at the same time, this episode will challenge assumptions and reframe the conversation. Episode Highlights 00:00 – Welcome 01:14 – Jonathan O'Brien's and YIMBY Melbourne 01:48 – Progress and Challenges in Melbourne's Housing Policy 03:21 – Success Stories and Comparisons with Sydney 04:44 – Docklands: A Controversial Development 07:39 – The Missing Middle and Medium Density Housing 22:06 – Balancing Heritage and Development 28:39 – Planning Regulation Challenges 30:01 – Developer Strategies and Urban Planning 31:39 – Heritage and Housing Density 32:47 – Quality Concerns in New Developments 35:07 – Zoning and Urban Planning Dynamics 38:27 – Economic and Social Impacts of Rezoning 41:53 – Balancing Development and Community Needs 50:13 – State vs. Local Control in Urban Planning 52:05 – Conclusion and Final Thoughts About the Guest Jonathan O’Brien is the lead organizer of YIMBY Melbourne, an advocate for smarter housing policy, and an award-winning writer and publisher. A passionate voice for effective altruism and urban reform, he works to shift the conversation around density, planning, and affordability toward more equitable outcomes. With a background in community organizing and a commitment to evidence-based change, Jonathan brings both sharp analysis and lived experience to the often polarizing debate between NIMBYs and YIMBYs. His mission: to help shape cities that are inclusive, adaptable, and built for the next generation.

This Labor Day weekend, if you've ever wondered if all your hard work really matters, you're not alone. Solomon wrestled with it. The disciples wrestled with it. And maybe you have too. Jesus gives us a greater purpose that turns the mundane into meaningful. Join us this weekend at Real Life as we continue our series “The Elephant in the Room”—where we're talking about the tough questions most people are afraid to ask. You'll discover:• Why your job alone can never satisfy your soul.• How God uses even the ordinary parts of your life to displayHis glory.• The greater purpose you were created for that can changeeverything.

Newt talks with Erik Bork, the Emmy award-winning writer and director of the new film "The Elephant in the Room." The film is a romantic comedy that explores the challenges of political polarization through the story of a progressive woman who discovers her seemingly perfect partner voted for President Trump. Bork shares insights into his career, starting with his break from Tom Hanks, and discusses the creative process behind the film, including the challenges of portraying political differences authentically. He also delves into the complexities of independent filmmaking, from fundraising through platforms like Wefunder, to navigating distribution in a crowded media landscape. Bork emphasizes the importance of marketing and word-of-mouth in promoting independent films and highlights the potential for community screenings to foster discussion on political polarization. The film is available on major streaming platforms, and interested groups can host screenings to engage in dialogue about the film's themes. https://elephantintheroomfilm.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“She's triple negative and has a very, very aggressive tumor. Instead of going on spring break that year, she sat in our chemo room and got chemo. Her friends from college are good to try to keep her involved and try to surround her and encourage her, but they're right now in very, very different spots in their lives. She's fighting for her life; her friends are fighting for the grade they get in a class—and that's different,” ONS member Kristi Orbaugh, MSN, NP, AOCN®, AOCNP®, nurse practitioner at Community Hospital North Cancer Center in Indianapolis, IN, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about metastatic breast cancer in adolescent and young adult patients.

Some groups will say 15–39, but right around that age. When we think about that age, think about what all could be going on during those ages. Late teenagers, they may be going off to college, they may be graduating high school, trying to set up their own life, trying to become independent from mom and dad. If you're talking about early to mid 30s, you could be talking about young parents, young career folks. So, just setting that into place makes you realize this can be a very tumultuous time for folks.” TS 2:06 “Unfortunately, this group tends to have more aggressive subtypes. We see more triple-negative in this group. We see more hormone-negative, HER2-positive in this group. Normal breast cancer cells should be stimulated by hormone. They are stimulated by hormones. So when you have a breast cancer cell that is not driven by hormones, it's much more difficult to treat. We tend to see more aggressiveness in these tumors. We also see a higher incidence in non-Caucasian folks in this age group compared to the older age groups.” TS 4:53 “I think we have gotten much better about understanding the importance of fertility preservation and getting reproductive endocrinologists in, sooner rather than later. If we have earlier-stage cancers and we have patients that want to try to preserve eggs, preserve fertility, sperm banking. … If you have that time to talk to them—maybe a 21-year-old—the primary thing on her mind is not how many children she wants to have one day. Maybe she's not even thought about having kids yet. It's still a question you need to [ask]. Do you want to try to preserve fertility? Do you want to try to harvest some eggs? That's a conversation that needs to be had and is very, very important for that age group.” TS 10:35 “One thing that helps is if you can get them [into] reputable support groups with people their own age that are going through what they're going through. Someone else that doesn't have hair, someone else that isn't going to make it to the big board meeting or isn't going to get the promotion this year because they've had to take a medical leave. Someone else that understands it differently.” TS 16:47 “In breast cancer, many of those biomarkers just get reflexed. And what I mean by reflexed is a breast cancer pathology comes through, or a breast cancer specimen comes through, and it just automatically gets tested for X, Y, Z. HER2 and of course ER/PR. Now we understand that we don't just need to know whether they're HER2 positive or HER2 negative. We need to know: What is the IHC score? And even if the IHC score is zero, is there any membrane staining? And then we need to know what's their ESR1, their PTEN, their AKT, their PIK3CA. Those are so important to know.” TS 18:11 “I think it's important to try to remember what our priorities were when we were in our 20s—what our priorities were when we were starting out as young mothers or starting out our career. Because that's where these folks are. … I can't imagine in the midst of college, when I'm trying to be independent, to suddenly have to be at home and rely on my mom to take me to my chemo appointment. … So I think one really important bias is to remember where they are in the developmental stages of life. They're not 40-something. They haven't lived X amount of life, and we need to take a step back and try to remember when we were their age, what was important to us? Where were our priorities at that point? And then hear them when they're telling us what's important to them.” TS 29:22 “From a female standpoint … we frequently throw these patients into menopause or have early menopausal symptoms, and I think we forget how devastating that can be. … They now are at higher risk for osteopenia or osteoporosis. … And then we tell people, ‘Be as normal as possible, get back and do those normal things.' Well, they're in a relationship, and they want to be intimate [but] suddenly having sexual intercourse is incredibly painful. Or if it's not painful, sometimes they've just lost pure interest in that. They don't feel confident about their body. All of those things need to be addressed because patients are trying to live each day as normally as possible.” TS 31:55 

Our chat with Ari shows that data curation is the most impactful and underinvested area in AI. He argues that the prevailing focus on model architecture and compute scaling overlooks the "bitter lesson" that "models are what they eat." Effective data curation—a sophisticated process involving filtering, rebalancing, sequencing (curriculum), and synthetic data generation—allows for training models that are simultaneously faster, better, and smaller. Morcos recounts his personal journey from focusing on model-centric inductive biases to realizing that data quality is the primary lever for breaking the diminishing returns of naive scaling laws. Datology's mission is to automate this complex curation process, making state-of-the-art data accessible to any organization and enabling a new paradigm of AI development where data efficiency, not just raw scale, drives progress. Timestamps 00:00 Introduction 00:46 What is Datology? The mission to train models faster, better, and smaller through data curation. 01:59 Ari's background: From neuroscience to realizing the "Bitter Lesson" of AI. 05:30 Key Insight: Inductive biases from architecture become less important and even harmful as data scale increases. 08:08 Thesis: Data is the most underinvested area of AI research relative to its impact. 10:15 Why data work is culturally undervalued in research and industry. 12:19 How self-supervised learning changed everything, moving from a data-scarce to a data-abundant regime. 17:05 Why automated curation is superior to human-in-the-loop, citing the DCLM study. 19:22 The "Elephants vs. Dogs" analogy for managing data redundancy and complexity. 22:46 A brief history and commentary on key datasets (Common Crawl, GitHub, Books3). 26:24 Breaking naive scaling laws by improving data quality to maintain high marginal information gain. 29:07 Datology's demonstrated impact: Achieving baseline performance 12x faster. 34:19 The business of data: Datology's moat and its relationship with open-source datasets. 39:12 Synthetic Data Explain ed: The difference between risky "net-new" creation and powerful "rephrasing." 49:02 The Resurgence of Curriculum Learning: Why ordering data matters in the underfitting regime. 52:55 The Future of Training: Optimizing pre-training data to make post-training more effective. 54:49 Who is training their own models and why (Sovereign AI, large enterprises). 57:24 "Train Smaller": Why inference cost makes smaller, specialized models the ultimate goal for enterprises. 01:00:19 The problem with model pruning and why data-side solutions are complementary. 01:03:03 On finding the smallest possible model for a given capability. 01:06:49 Key learnings from the RC foundation model collaboration, proving that data curation "stacks." 01:09:46 Lightning Round: What data everyone wants & who should work at Datology. 01:14:24 Commentary on Meta's superintelligence efforts and Yann LeCun's role.

The Pain in Our Families (James 5:13-20): Confession, acknowledgement, and repentance are difficult to embrace but necessary if we want healing and restoration to occur in any area of our lives, especially in our families.

Stigall was called away unexpectedly this week, so we’re trying out something new. Rather than give you repeats of old shows, Stigall wants your opinion on this new special edition podcast. We’re letting you sample it for 4 days to see if you think you’d like to hear this as a sixth show on Saturdays going forward. We will return to our regular format next week. We’re calling this "Questions That Need An Answer" and the discussion is led by Stigall’s friend and spiritual mentor Dr. Ken Parker - author of “Elephant in the Church.” As Christians, many questions come up in our own minds or from others seeking Biblical wisdom and insights from us. These mini lessons and discussions are an attempt to help all of us learn how to answer big questions directed to Christians. Over the next four episodes, each show will focus on one of those big questions and apply it to Scripture and our walk as believers. Please let us know what you think of these shows in the comments. Do you like the concept? If the response is positive - we’d like to begin offering these in addition to the regular Monday - Friday shows as a Saturday extra once a week. Please leave your comments and reviews! -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
