From menopause to scheduled sex, from the biology of lust to the reality of long-term love, this conversation is both raw and reassuring.

Cheryl and her husband share their own story, including struggles, dry spells, and what it really takes to keep desire alive. Spoiler: no couple is “broken” just because spontaneous lust fades.

Bence asked cheerfully.Hu: "Az elefántokat!" kiáltotta Réka izgatottan, és már húzta is őt a park belseje felé.En: "The elephants!" Réka shouted excitedly, already pulling him toward the interior of the park.Hu: Amerre csak mentek, mindenhol családok kacagása és állatok zajai töltötték meg a teret.En: Everywhere they went, the laughter of families and the noises of animals filled the space.Hu: Az út során azonban Bence telefonja többször is megcsörent.En: However, during the visit, Bence's phone rang several times.Hu: Munka hívta, és bár előre megfogadta, hogy ma félreteszi a munkát, mégis fel kellett vennie.En: Work was calling, and though he had promised himself to put work aside today, he still had to answer.Hu: Réka néha megállt és várta, hogy apja végre befejezze.En: Réka occasionally stopped and waited for her father to finally finish.Hu: Hiába élvezte a látványt, érezte, hogy valami elvonja Bence figyelmét.En: Even though she enjoyed the sights, she could feel that something was distracting Bence's attention.Hu: Az elefántházhoz érve, az esti etetés előtt, Réka megállt, és mélyen Bence szemébe nézett.En: Arriving at the elephant house, just before the evening feeding, Réka stopped and looked deep into Bence's eyes.Hu: "Apa, szeretnék veled lenni, igazán. Olyan, mintha mindig csak a telefonoddal és a munkáddal lennél" - mondta csöndesen.En: "Dad, I want to be with you, really. It feels like you're always with your phone and work," she said quietly.Hu: Bence szíve összeszorult.En: Bence's heart tightened.Hu: Rájött, mennyire elhanyagolta a pillanat értékét.En: He realized how much he had neglected the value of the moment.Hu: Ebben a percben a döntés megszületett benne.En: At that moment, he made a decision.Hu: Elrakta a telefont, lezárta, és zsebre tette.En: He put away the phone, closed it, and slipped it into his pocket.Hu: "Mostantól csak veled vagyok, Réka. Ez a nap a miénk!" mondta eltökélten.En: "From now on, I'm just with you, Réka. This day is ours!" he said resolutely.Hu: Aznap délután együtt nézték az elefánt etetést.En: That afternoon, they watched the elephant feeding together.Hu: Réka csillogó szemekkel mutogatott és mesélte az elefántok történeteit, amiket az iskolában tanult.En: Réka, with sparkling eyes, pointed and told stories about the elephants that she had learned in school.Hu: Bence pedig figyelt és mosolygott, szívébe zárva minden pillanatot.En: Bence listened and smiled, cherishing every moment in his heart.Hu: Az ősz minden szépsége körülvette őket, az állatok közelsége pedig megteremtette annak az élménynek a varázsát, amire Réka mindig emlékezni fog.En: The beauty of autumn surrounded them, and the proximity of the animals created the magic of the experience that Réka would always remember.Hu: Bence most már tudta, hogy minden nap egy kicsit Rékáé, és a munka nem lehet fontosabb az együtt töltött időnél.En: Bence now knew that every day was a little bit Réka's, and work could not be more important than the time spent together.Hu: Mikor kijöttek a park kapuján, a nap lassan búcsúzott a horizont mögött, és Bence megfogadta magában: soha nem fogja elfelejteni, mennyire fontos is az a szépséges, közösen töltött idő.En: When they left the park's gate, the sun slowly bid farewell behind the horizon, and Bence made a vow to himself: he would never forget how important that beautiful, shared time was.

 What if Joseph Merrick, the so-called “Elephant Man,” had been born beautiful? This episode explores his life, his genius, and what society still struggles to see: elusive humanity.They called him a monster. History remembers him as the Elephant Man. But Joseph Merrick was far more than his face. This episode explores his real story — his suffering, his dignity, and the haunting “what if” of how different life might have been if he had looked “normal.”After watching, you'll see how cultural awkwardness and silence still shape how we treat difference today — and why Merrick's story still matters.Call to Action (rotation):• Like, subscribe, and share if this story surprised you.• Tap subscribe so you don't miss the next twist in history.Episode/Playlist Links:• The Distasteful History of Toothpaste – Why smiles once meant something very different.   https://youtu.be/wq_H-8_pKKI• The Smile That Changed Culture – Why people didn't smile in old photos.   https://youtu.be/l3xddLnkqME• Playlist: An Ounce Podcast – Historical Lives & Legends   https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLvguDu9efxtoRfoCHh3ZqVEXIJ1zBpwLW#JosephMerrick #HistoryWhatIf #AnOuncePodcast________________________________________

Hello, everyone! We are back with Golden Bachelor Mel and his journey to find a woman who doesn't care about what he said months ago about wanting to find a match who is fifteen years younger than he is, with no artificial joints. Isn't this fun? ABC wasted no time finding delightful women with very forgiving hearts. They think Mel is a catch, and they will stop at nothing to prove to him that women in their golden years are full of life! Full of energy! And, if your name is Nicholle, full of cringe-worthy moments that involve her tongue down Mel's throat. Can someone find me a couch cushion to hide behind, please? Thanks!

We meet Sean Ono Lennon to explore his music and life with art, plus we discuss the forthcoming box set Power to the People, that Sean has produced, of his parents' Yoko Ono and John Lennon's 1972 fundraising live New York concert. We consider activism in art, especially the legacy of John and Yoko's timeless work together (as also documented in the recent One to One documentary).Recorded live at Madison Square Garden, New York City on 30 August 1972, the Power to The People box set includes 31 Live Tracks from John & Yoko's two historic sets at the One To One Concert backed by Plastic Ono Band, Elephant's Memory and Special Guests. They were John Lennon's only full-length concerts after leaving The Beatles and the last two full-length concerts that John & Yoko performed together. Released from 10th October 2025. Learn more: https://www.johnlennon.com/news/power-to-the-people-deluxe-box-4lp-2lp-2cd-1cd-preorder-now/Sean Ono Lennon is a world renowned musician, songwriter, and producer. “He has always chosen his own musical path, following it deftly as he splits the difference between pop and experimental pursuits. He came of age in the kaleidoscopic '90s, working with Cibo Matto and issuing his first solo album, 1998's Into the Sun, on the Beastie Boys' Grand Royal label, while beginning a long stint playing in his mother Yoko Ono's band. In the following decade he formed the psychedelic duo the Ghost of a Saber Tooth Tiger and the improvisational prog group Mystical Weapons. As his musical interests expanded further, he teamed with Les Claypool to form the hard-to-categorize project the Claypool Lennon Delirium, branched out into film scoring, explored more mainstream territory as he worked with artists like Lana Del Ray, Lady Gaga and Lily Allen, and delved into jazz as well. His first foray into that style was 2024's Asterisms, a fully instrumental album of electronics-fused jazz and psychedelic soundscape music. The son of John Lennon and Yoko Ono, Lennon was born in New York City in 1975. During his childhood, he was educated in Swiss boarding schools, but occasionally appeared on his mother's albums and sang on the 1984 Ono tribute Every Man Has a Woman. In his early teens, he was occasionally seen decked out in a plastic Thriller jacket and hanging out with Michael Jackson, but his first official step into the spotlight was in the form of filmed interviews for the 1988 documentary Imagine: John Lennon. Three years later, he organized -- with Ono and Lenny Kravitz -- a star-studded re-recording of his father's "Give Peace a Chance" as a protest to the Gulf War. That year, he also appeared on Kravitz's album Mama Said.” Biography by Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi.In 2025, Sean is working on a new Claypool Lennon Delirium album (their 3rd) and is directing a documentary film on the crazy genius fashion designers 3as4, who have designed outfits for Bjork and Yoko among many others.

This week's guest is Dr. Angi Acocella, a Research Scientist here at MIT's Center for Transportation & Logistics and a key member of the MIT FreightLab.   Angi was last on the Freightvine in the fall of 2021 - 4 years ago - when she was a doctoral student.   A lot has changed over that time and after a post-doc in the Netherlands, Angi is back at MIT doing great research exploring shipper-broker-carrier relationships within the full truckload industry.  For this conversation, I have asked Angi to describe some of her more recent work to include the idea of Ghost Lanes, Network segmentation and transportation portfolio management, Predicting truckload market cycles, and, finally, the idea of whether shippers and carriers are Elephants or Goldfish.  That is, do they remember how they were treated in one part of the business cycle after the market turns - or not.  All of Angi's work is both theoretically rigorous and immediately applicable to actual transportation procurement and management.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The hardest part of leadership isn't strategy or spreadsheets—it's the unspoken dynamics that quietly shape trust, decisions, and performance. In this episode of Leadership on the Rocks, Bethany Rees talks with René Sonneveld—former Fortune 500 CEO, leadership coach, and author of The Elephant in the Family Room. René shares why awareness of self, others, and the systems we're part of is the true foundation of leadership. He unpacks how unresolved emotions, family history, and hidden tensions often matter more than market forces—and why leaders who learn to notice and navigate these “elephants” build stronger teams, manage conflict with wisdom, and create cultures of trust.

October 2nd, 1925: four covered-top double-deckers debut on the Elephant to Epping route, drawing queues of curious Londoners. A century later, their descendants — 8,800 buses, 6,000 of them double-deckers — knit the capital together with 5 million journeys a day and 300 million miles a year. From four pioneers at the Elephant to a red fleet that could lap the Earth 12,000 times or reach the Sun in four months — London's buses aren't just transport. They're a solar-system-sized lifeline, a cosmic commute.

Stephen Grootes speaks to Jameel Khan, Co-founder of Unconventional CA, about South Africa’s failing Enterprise and Supplier Development sector – and what he calls the R20-billion elephant in the room. Each year corporates pour more than R20 billion into ESD, yet nearly 40% of targets go unmet, unemployment remains stubbornly above 30%, and small businesses continue to struggle. Khan argues the problem isn’t the money but the mindset – ESD too often reduced to a compliance exercise instead of a growth engine.

Today I'm delighted to be joined in conversation by Dr David Mann founder of HaikuBox a unique smart device that allows you to listen to and monitor the bird calls in your garden 24/7.Birdwatching offers a connection to the natural world that is accessible to all of us regardless of our backgrounds or our locations. Birding in urban areas is equally as rewarding as it is in more rural settings. I believe people protect what they love and understand and the HaikuBox is a wonderful tool to help us build a deeper relationship with the birds and acoustic landscape that surrounds us but is easily overlooked. Beyond being incredibly fun to learn who is sharing your home with you, the HaikuBox also gathers data that conservationists are able to use to both understand and conserve our avian friends. From the impacts of solar eclipses and wild fires to migration patterns the data you help collect is invaluable to learning more about our birds. David also shares some other fascinating uses for bioacoustics monitoring from Elephants in Africa and the signature whistles of Florida's Bottlenose dolphins that can identify individuals to the Indigenous communities in northwestern Canada employing HaikuBox technology to ensure Beluga Whales aren't trapped when winter ice blocks the waterways. David reminds us how easy it can be to make a difference in this world, by learning to appreciate and then simple encourage and nurture the native wild plants and wildlife that share our homes, we can make an incredible impact.Learn more about  DavidHaikubox's founder, David Mann, grew up in Syracuse, NY and spent a lot of time outdoors, no matter the weather. David was fascinated by birds and watched them at home and at nearby Sapsucker Woods on the Cornell University campus. David went on to study biology at Cornell and earned a PhD in biological oceanography from MIT and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, where his research focused on animal bioacoustics. Haikubox was hatched when David and a colleague at the K. Lisa Yang Center for Conservation Bioacoustics at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology realized they shared a common interest and the technical skills to develop an automatic birdsong identification tool. HaikuBox:Haikubox brings consumers real-time bird alerts, birdsong recordings and loads of information about their backyard birds. Using its proprietary neural net trained on thousands of bird recordings, Haikubox listens 24/7 for every bird song and chirp and shares what it learns via the Haikubox Listen website and mobile app. Includes phone and smartwatch bird alerts, the ability to favorite, download and share birdsong recordings, and learning to identify hidden species by their vocalizations. Every Haikubox owner becomes a community scientist within the Haikubox network, contributing invaluable data for scientific research.Website: www.haikubox.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/haikubox/BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/haikubox.bsky.socialSupport the showThank you for being part of this journey with me, please Subscribe so you don't miss our future episodes, leave a review & share with friends to help these messages ripple out across the world.

Known for shaking up traditional wine education, Sunny takes us on a journey into the science behind wine, from rootstocks and yeast strains to soils, sulphites and histamines. This episode dives deep into how low-intervention vs. natural wine is defined, what mouse taint and Brettanomyces really mean for your glass, and why the future of wine chat might balance both the romance of terroir and the hard facts of winemaking. Expect myth-busting, geeky insights, and plenty of food for thought on how wine is grown, made, and enjoyed.

On episode one hundred and fifty seven of Holy Ghost Notes, Matt and Tim catch up and talk about the divisive nature of social media as of late. In light of the recent fragile landscape, the guys discuss how to have mature and civil conversations about difficult topics and the importance of respect and love above all. Taking shape as more of an after thought than topics, Matt and Tim share their weaknesses in drumming. Then they pivot into the topic of ‘weakness in life' and how weakness can, in fact, be a positive thing.

Editorial Note: This episode was recorded in December 2024, after the nomination of Robert F Kennedy Jr as Secretary of Health and Human Services had been announced but prior to his confirmation.  Some comments by the podcast hosts and our guest will reflect this timing.Elephants rarely get cancer, ants quarantine when sick, and altruistic pigs have a higher pain tolerance. In this episode, we discuss insights from the animal world that shed light on human health and wellness, as well as the power of data driven narratives in effective public health education. Our guest is Dr. David Agus, founding CEO of the Ellison Medical Institute and professor of medicine and engineering at the University of Southern California. As a CBS news contributor and author of three New York Times best selling books on health, Dr. Agus emphasizes the need for experts who are willing to explain rather than tell. Having experienced the politicization of public health during the pandemic, he highlights the importance of data transparency and the urgency for more physician leaders. With technological advances making data collection and analysis ever more accessible, Dr. Agus shares a vision for the future of medicine, where patients bring their own health data to the clinic and physicians act as educators guided by the values of their patients.In this episode, you'll hear about: 2:30 - Dr. Agus's journey to medicine and how he found his way to focusing on preventative health and public education 6:50 - Navigating the politicized nature of public health as a public health educator 14:17 - Dr. Agus's viewpoint on the controversial nominations of RFK Jr. and Dr. Oz 19:51 - How the education of doctor needs to change to adapt to our newly data driven world 24:20 - The current state of nutrition science and how people can make the best choices with the current data available on the topic 32:12 - The potential benefits of making big data in electronic medical records available to physicians32:48 - The inspiration behind Dr. Agus's new book, The Book of Animal Secrets, and what the animal kingdom can teach us as humans about living a more fulfilling and healthy life 52:11 - A vision for empowering patients with their personal medical data in the age of AI 54:31 - Dr. Agus's advice to clinicians on supporting patients with their preventative healthVisit our website www.TheDoctorsArt.com where you can find transcripts of all episodes.If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review our show, available for free on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
