Body of episode: FATHER'S DAY MEN'S HEALTH So, well before President Biden's prostate cancer diagnosis, I had planned on discussing men's health for this year's Father's Day episode. In particular, I wanted to discuss causes of male childlessness, such as Azoospermia. I've decided to put links in the show notes in regards to Azoospermia. Please check out the links for further information. The basic definition of Azoospermia per The Cleveland Clinic website is: ‘Azoospermia means there's no sperm in your ejaculate. Its causes include a blockage along the reproductive tract, hormonal problems, ejaculation problems or issues with testicular structure or function. Many causes are treatable. For other causes, it may be possible to retrieve live sperm to be used in assisted reproductive techniques like IVF.‘ As I think back through my episodes, I don't believe I've ever discussed men's health, or medical reasons men may be childless. We've discussed fibroids, PCOS, endometriosis, adenomyosis, miscarriage, running out of time, aka the biological clock, MRKH, etc. But I've never gone into much detail regarding issues surrounding the causes of childlessness in men. I have had the great opportunity to interview several men about their experiences with childlessness, including how they have dealt with it. I will put links in the show notes on interviews I have conducted over the years with these wonderful men. Be sure to take a listen! I also believe male childlessness is not as openly discussed as female childlessness because men and their spouses may find the issue embarrassing, shocking to their ego in a different way than a woman may feel about her childlessness, or maybe in much the same way. In either case, there can be emotional and mental pain. Some of the things that can cause infertility in men include: AI Overview Male infertility can be caused by a variety of factors, including problems with sperm production or quality, hormonal imbalances, genetic disorders, infections, and environmental factors. Additionally, lifestyle choices like smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and certain drug use can also contribute to infertility. Here's a more detailed look at some of the key causes: 1. Sperm Problems: Low sperm count (oligospermia): A low number of sperm in the ejaculate. Absent sperm (azoospermia): No sperm in the ejaculate. Poor sperm motility: Sperm are unable to swim properly. Abnormal sperm morphology: Sperm are abnormally shaped, making it difficult for them to fertilize an egg. 2. Hormonal Imbalances: Reduced testosterone: Low levels of testosterone can affect sperm production. Hyperprolactinemia: Elevated levels of prolactin can interfere with sperm production. Hormonal disorders affecting the pituitary gland or hypothalamus: These glands regulate hormone production. 3. Genetic Disorders: Klinefelter syndrome: A genetic condition affecting males. Cystic fibrosis: A genetic disorder that can cause blocked reproductive ducts. Myotonic dystrophy: A genetic disorder that can affect sperm production. 4. Infections and Inflammation: Epididymitis: Inflammation of the epididymis, the tube that carries sperm from the testicles. Orchitis: Inflammation of the testicles. STIs: Sexually transmitted infections like gonorrhea or chlamydia can cause inflammation and damage to the reproductive organs. 5. Environmental and Lifestyle Factors: Smoking: Smoking can reduce sperm count and quality. Alcohol consumption: Excessive alcohol use can lower testosterone levels and affect sperm production. Certain drug use: Anabolic steroids and other drugs can negatively impact sperm production. Exposure to toxins or chemicals: Exposure to certain toxins, like pesticides, can affect fertility. Obesity: Being overweight or obese can impact sperm quality. 6. Medical Conditions: Diabetes: Diabetes can affect sperm production and quality. Kidney failure: Kidney failure can also impact sperm production. Cystic fibrosis: A genetic disorder that can cause blocked reproductive ducts. Autoimmune diseases: Some autoimmune diseases can attack sperm. 7. Other Factors: Varicocele: Enlarged veins in the scrotum, which can raise testicular temperature and affect sperm production. Testicular trauma: Injury to the testicles can damage sperm production. Previous cancer treatment: Chemotherapy and radiation therapy can affect sperm production. Undescended testicles: Testicles that don't descend into the scrotum. Blockages or absences of tubes: Blockages in the reproductive tract can prevent sperm from being released. This is for informational purposes only. For medical advice or diagnosis, consult a professional. AI responses may include mistakes. Learn more Whether you have children or not, your health is important. Be sure to go to all of your check-ups, especially if there is a family history of health issues. Get checked, don't wait. Be OK with advocating for yourself. The healthcare industry may say no, you are too young for a particular test. But if you want that test, be insistent. Keep in mind that if your insurance does not cover the test because you are not of a certain age or whatever their parameters are, you may have to pay out of pocket. Happy Father's Day to all the wonderful men out there who do the work of raising great people for this world. Happy Father's Day to those of you who did not birth children, but are contributing to a child's life in beautiful and lasting ways.

Episode Overview: In this Q&A episode, Dr. Elizabeth McIngvale & Cali Werner tackle listener-submitted questions about navigating anxiety in everyday life. They discuss practical strategies for managing negativity, overcoming imposter syndrome, finding balance between productivity & rest, coping with current events, & understanding the difference between OCD & preferences. Plus, they offer insights into how parents' anxiety can impact children & how to foster a healthier relationship with discomfort.Key Insights:Balancing Self-Compassion, Grace, & Behavior Change: It's crucial to find the right mix of self-compassion, grace, & behavior change when addressing negativity. Excessive self-compassion can lead to stagnation, while focusing solely on behavior change without self-acceptance can be counterproductive.Reframing Productivity: Relaxation & connection are productive activities. It's essential to evaluate which activities truly drain your energy versus those that fill your tank.Overcoming Imposter Syndrome: Moving through imposter syndrome is key. Acknowledge feelings of inadequacy, but don't let them paralyze you. Embrace new challenges as learning opportunities.Setting Boundaries with Current Events: Limit exposure to news & social media to manage anxiety related to current events. It's okay to set boundaries in conversations with friends & family.OCD is Not a Positive Performance Enhancer: OCD is disruptive & dysfunctional. It doesn't improve performance; it hinders it by consuming mental energy.Anxiety in Parenting: Children are perceptive + sense their parents' anxieties. Open communication + modeling healthy coping mechanisms are vital.Notable Moments & Timestamps:[01:10] Cali shares her anxious moment about adopting two new puppies.[03:20] Elizabeth discusses her anxious moment about negativity during pregnancy.[05:25] Q&A begins with a discussion on managing negative self-perception.[07:51] Addressing guilt + productivity, + the importance of rest.[13:02] Strategies for managing imposter syndrome.[20:17] Exposures for anxiety about something bad happening.[23:19] Managing the need to be hyper-productive.[26:10] Coping with terror related to current events.[29:01] Debunking the myth that OCD enhances performance.[35:19] How parents' anxiety affects children.[43:16] Increasing willingness to tolerate discomfort + start treatment.Call to Action:Submit your questions for future Q&A episodes via our website or social media!

Picture this: You're on the wildest roller coaster of your life – dizzying highs, sudden drops, and your heart racing. For many of us with ADHD, early romance can feel exactly like that. Our brains light up with excitement and novelty, but those same traits that make us passionate can also leave us vulnerable to toxic relationships. Research shows that adults with ADHD often report childhood trauma and have brains that crave dopamine in high doses. That means the drama of a turbulent partner might feel familiar or even thrilling. As Dr. Gabor Maté puts it, people unconsciously “choose each other with an unerring instinct” for partners who mirror their own unresolved anxieties and pain. In plain terms, ADHD traits plus past stresses can set us up for danger if we're not careful. Today on Authentically ADHD, we're peeling back the curtain on why ADHD brains are wired to overlook red flags, and how to recognize and escape toxic dynamics – with a dose of neuroscience, expert insight, and real talk.Impulsivity & Novelty-SeekingFor someone with ADHD, new romance can be intoxicating. We crave excitement, and a high-energy partner often delivers. As ADHD experts explain, ADHD often means higher impulsivity and constant novelty-seeking. In one study's key takeaways, ADHD “can cause increased impulsivity and novelty-seeking behavior — like constantly looking for new and exciting experiences”. In practice, that means you might rush headlong into a relationship without waiting to see the red flags. Dr. Edward Hallowell famously described how a person with ADHD “seldom feels bored”, instantly switching to something new at the first hint of dullness. When a toxic partner offers a rush of drama – extreme highs like bombarding you with affection (love-bombing), followed by sharp criticisms – your ADHD brain gets dopamine hits at every twist and turn. Those dopamine spikes can feel like love, making chaos seem exciting instead of dangerous.For example, imagine texting back instantly without thinking, even when something feels off. Or jumping into serious commitments with someone who's shown controlling behaviors, simply because the initial chemistry is overwhelming. That's ADHD impulsivity and thrill-seeking at work. We're more likely to mistake high drama for passion. But remember: healthy relationships can be dynamic too, with steady excitement that builds trust, not tension. As one ADDitude expert notes, treating your ADHD through therapy, medication, or coaching can diminish the craving for those unhealthy dopamine hits, helping you choose more stable love over wild rides.Hyperfocus on the Wrong PartnersIt's no secret: we can intensely fixate on a new crush. In ADHD terms, this is hyperfocus – pouring all our attention into one person. Early in romance, that means calling, texting, planning every detail together in a way that feels magical. But there's a catch. As ADDitude editors point out, people with ADHD “feel emotions intensely and might hyperfocus on their partner, especially at the outset of a new, exciting relationship”. In practice, we hang on every word they say, overlook snide comments, and rewrite our own friend's concerns as jealousy or misunderstanding.For instance, imagine the first few weeks with a new partner: your ADHD brain is 100% engaged. They text, you reply lightning-fast. They cancel plans unexpectedly, and you shrug it off because you're so grateful to have their attention at all. That hyperfocus can blind us to manipulation. We might stay up all night chatting about their life story – even the parts that don't add up – or excuse their mood swings because we're convinced this time they really get us. In short, hyperfocus makes us all in right away. Unfortunately, that's exactly when a toxic partner is most charming. The downside: once the infatuation fades, the problems you missed can hit hard.Emotional Dysregulation & RSDIf romance hits a rough patch, ADHD brains react strongly. Many of us experience big emotions and mood swings that non-ADHD folks don't. This is by no accident: researchers like Dr. Russell Barkley show that emotional impulsiveness and deficient emotional self-regulation (DESR) are integral to ADHD. In plain terms, we can swing from zero to a hundred easily. One ADHD expert put it simply: many adults with ADHD “experience big emotions, and such intense emotions can easily destabilize even the strongest partnerships”. You might cry for hours over a forgotten text, or erupt in anger if you feel left out.On top of that, ADHD comes with something called Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD). RSD means we feel rejection or criticism as emotional pain so intense it's almost physical. Even a partner's mild critique might feel like a punch to the gut. Picture this: your partner says, “Maybe you should try to be on time,” and suddenly you're convinced they're plotting to dump you. That fear triggers panic; you obsess over what you did wrong all night. RSD can make us paranoid about losing someone, even if they haven't shown real signs of leaving. As one therapist explains, this leads some of us to overreact or interpret neutral acts as intentional hurt.The result? Emotional turmoil in the relationship. You may push back fiercely, cry uncontrollably, or withdraw completely, depending on the day. A toxic partner often intentionally amplifies this – a small critique from them can send you spiraling, which they then dismiss as irrational. Meanwhile, your inability to regulate means you keep doing exactly what angers you or makes you sad. Over time, the ups and downs can leave you feeling drained and doubting your sanity.Next up we are talking Boundaries, low self trust, fear of abandonment & misinterpreting social cues and of course some tips on how to spot the red flags and feel more empowered, but first a word from our sponsors….********************course AD, patreon & FOCUSED **************Executive Dysfunction and BoundariesAnother ADHD truth: our executive functioning – planning, organizing, self-control – can be a major challenge. In relationships, this often shows up as forgiving and forgetting where we shouldn't. We struggle to keep track of agreed boundaries. If our partner sets a rule and then crosses it, we might not recall our agreement clearly, or our impulsivity makes us give in. We might be hyper-organized about work but completely miss that we promised to stay home for the night.According to relationship researchers, the ADHD symptoms that commonly impact love include inattention, forgetfulness, impulsivity, and disorganization. These can make our partners feel like we're unreliable or distracted (even if we aren't trying to be). For example, you might forget to call back, miss important dates, or say something impulsive without meaning to. In a toxic dynamic, an abusive partner may use this “flakiness” as more fodder: “You never care!” they might snap, and you believe it. If you've already agreed on a boundary, then your executive funk sets in, you slip, and they use that slip-up against you.Imagine a scenario: Your partner says you're not allowed to have certain friends, but because you forgot the rule, you slip into a group chat. They find out and accuse you of betrayal. You try to organize a simple date night to save the peace, but you overcommit and then drop the ball. Each mistake feeds into a narrative that you are the unreliable one. In reality, ADHD makes it hard to maintain consistency, and a toxic partner will exploit every mix-up.Low Self-Trust and Fear of AbandonmentAfter so many mistakes and misunderstandings, our self-trust can plummet. We start to doubt our instincts. If every relationship feels doomed or everyone seems angry at us, we might think “There must be something wrong with me.” That's a dangerous trap. People with ADHD often develop a deep-seated fear of abandonment – a terror that if we speak up or leave, we really will end up alone. This fear is fueled by a history of feeling rejected or criticized (or even trauma) early in life.Dr. Maté's insight is revealing here: “Couples choose each other with an unerring instinct for finding the very person who will exactly match their own level of unconscious anxieties and mirror their own dysfunctions…”. In other words, we often (unconsciously) pick partners who resonate with our own pain. If you grew up feeling dismissed or unsafe, you might be drawn to someone who keeps you just anxious enough to feel something. Once in that relationship, the fear of losing them can become paralyzing. You worry that no one else would put up with you, so you stay and ignore the issues. This matches what many therapists see: ADHDers, already vulnerable after feeling misunderstood for years, often fear that demanding respect means losing love.On top of that, people with ADHD frequently have low self-esteem because of a lifetime of “you're late, you forgot, you didn't finish.” Dr. Ari Tuckman and others note that ADHD can come hand-in-hand with low confidence and negative self-talk. When that combines with RSD, any threat of breakup feels like confirmation that we're worthless. A toxic partner can pick up on this. They may say, “If you left, you'd be alone forever,” or even gaslight you into thinking you are the problem. We're vulnerable to believing them.Misreading Manipulation & Social CuesHere's another twist: ADHD can make social cues tricky. Many of us are extremely empathetic and assume people are good. At the same time, we can be so distracted that subtle manipulations fly under our radar. A partner might gaslight (“You imagined that, I never said that”) or shift blame, and we might miss or excuse it. We might rationalize their behavior (“He's just stressed”) when an outsider sees it's abuse. Sadly, this combination – empathy plus distractibility – can make us targets for manipulation. A toxic partner counts on us missing their red flags, and often we do.For example, if they love-bomb you (“You're perfect!”) one day and slam you (“You're crazy!”) the next, your ADHD impulses might focus only on the highs and forget the lows until they hit you like a ton of bricks. If your partner hints at being jealous or controlling, you might interpret it as passionate love instead of a warning sign. This isn't your fault – it's how ADHD can paint a rosier picture in the moment. The key is to learn the difference between passion and poison.Spotting Red Flags and Self-EmpowermentLet's pull this together with some practical steps. The good news: knowing these patterns is the first step to breaking them. Here are some red flags to watch for, especially if you have ADHD:Love-bombing & devaluation: If someone showers you with affection one moment and dismisses you the next, that intense cycle is toxic drama, not true intimacy.Gaslighting: If you constantly feel confused or like you're crazy about reality, that's a major red flag. ADHD brains already second-guess ourselves; don't let someone else add fuel.Disrespecting boundaries: If your “no” or your limits are ignored or mocked, that partner is not respecting you. That's abuse, not just a “quirk.”Consistent disrespect: Small insidious things (rolling eyes, insults, taking you for granted) add up. ADHD people may brush them off, but ask yourself, “How would I feel if a friend said these things?”Excessive drama: An ongoing soap opera of breakups and makeups is not love, it's manipulation. Your brain might crave the adrenaline, but it's unhealthy.Knowledge is power. As one ADDitude article recommends, recognize the signs early and treat your ADHD – with coaching, therapy, medication or all three. Managing your ADHD symptoms can help clear the fog: you'll have better impulse control, greater emotional balance, and a more realistic view of your partner. Also, remember: you deserve consistency and respect. It's okay to set firm boundaries and stick to them. Practice saying “no” in low-stakes situations so it's easier when it counts.If you notice your anxious ADHD brain is saying things like “If I leave, I'll never find anyone,” remember the facts: Some relationships truly are meant to last a season, and letting go is not a failure. As one expert bluntly puts it: “Leaving doesn't mean you wasted time… Leaving is always an option”. Empower yourself by remembering that the right person will value your kindness and passion – not exploit it.In closing: ADHD gives us wonderful strengths (creativity, empathy, energy), but it also comes with vulnerabilities in love. By educating ourselves about how our brains work, listening to experts, and sharing experiences, we can spot toxic patterns before they take hold. You are worthy of a healthy, respectful love. Keep your eyes and heart open, trust your gut, and never forget – you're not alone on this journey.

Send us a textRegistered dietitian Leonila Campos and dietetic intern Anna Kwon, M.S. tackle the persistent myths about carbohydrates that plague social media and harm athletic performance. They break down the science of how our bodies use energy during exercise and why cutting carbs can damage both health and performance.• Macronutrients explained: carbohydrates, proteins, and fats all play essential roles in keeping our bodies functioning optimally• Your brain and central nervous system run almost exclusively on glucose from carbohydrates• The body uses three energy systems during exercise – phosphagen (immediate energy), anaerobic (carb-dependent), and aerobic (uses all macros but carbs remain most efficient)• When carbohydrate stores run low during exercise, the body breaks down muscle protein through gluconeogenesis• Weight loss from low-carb diets while exercising often comes from muscle loss and water weight, not fat• General recommendations include getting 45-65% of calories from carbs, 10-35% from protein, and 20-35% from fat• Pre-workout nutrition should focus on carbohydrates (60-70% of calories) to fully stock glycogen• Post-workout recovery requires both protein AND carbohydrates within 2 hours (ideally immediately)• Excessive protein intake can cause kidney strain, dehydration, and leaves less room for nutrient-dense carbs• Food has no moral value – all foods fit into a balanced, sustainable approach to eatingFor nutrition questions or personalized guidance, contact Leo at 559-512-0404, fueledbyleo@gmail.com, or on Instagram @nutrition_with_leonila.

Jesse Cook is a PhD candidate in the Dr. David Plante Sleep Research Laboratory and studies biological, psychological and sociological factors that connect with unexplained excessive sleepiness. He was first drawn to Alzheimer's disease (AD) research through the connection between sleep health and AD, and the prevention, detection and potential treatment implications of this connection. Cook believes sleep health disparities across underrepresented groups may help explain disproportionate risk of AD.

This week we have re-posting a brief insight to the fact that stress can play havoc on the immune system and we hope to have a new guest soon to discuss this weighty problem. If you are a member of the health care community and would like to be a guest on our show to discuss how stress affects the immune system, please drop us a line at PodcastDX@yahoo.com. Remember chronic stress = excessive cortisol and too much cortisol = a host of medical ailments. Poor sleep Cortisol levels are supposed to drop at nighttime, allowing your body to relax and recharge. But if your cortisol levels are too high, you might notice that, even if you've been tired all day, you get a second wind right around bedtime. Then you toss and turn all night – and feel tired again the next day. Over time, high levels of cortisol deplete the adrenal glands and predispose you to chronic fatigue. So if you feel like your get up and go got up and went, you're probably stressed. You're gaining weight, especially around your abdomen, even when you eat well and exercise. Cortisol tends to make you thick around the middle, even when you're doing everything “right.” You catch colds and other infections easily. Cortisol deactivates your body's natural self-repair mechanisms, which means that your immune system which is perfectly designed by nature to keep you healthy goes caput, leaving you vulnerable to every cootie you encounter. You crave unhealthy foods. Cortisol raises your blood sugar, putting you at risk of diabetes. High glucose levels then bump up your insulin levels, which then drop your blood sugar it's a vicious cycle! You experience backaches and headaches. When your cortisol levels are high over a long period of time, your adrenal glands start to get depleted. This raises prolactin levels, increasing the body's sensitivity to pain, such as backaches and muscle aches. Excessive cortisol also hypersensitizes the brain to pain, such that even the slightest twinge can excite the nerves of the brain, causing headaches. Lo-Libido Consider cortisol the anti-Viagra. When stress hormones are high, libido-inducing hormones like testosterone drop. GI Issues. Your gastrointestinal system is very sensitive to stress hormones like cortisol. You might experience nausea, heartburn, abdominal cramps, diarrhea, or constipation as a result of too many stress hormones. Emotional Problems. Cortisol and epinephrine can lead to jitters, nervous stomach, feelings of panic, even paranoia. High levels of cortisol suppress production of serotonin, and next thing you know, you're awash in doom and gloom. Chronic High Cortisol=Adrenal Fatigue When your cortisol levels are bumped up, day after day, your adrenal glands, responsible for the production of cortisol, get worn out. Precursor hormones required for cortisol production get depleted. This could result in full blown adrenal collapse. (Credits: Dr Lissa Rankin M.D. https://binged.it/3xgOpDc )

In his episode, we're going to talk about filler words and how to reduce the negative fillers that can be annoying. Fillers come in a few different formats. Some are just sounds. These fillers are the ones that, when we do them, we tend to get more nervous because we think the audience is judging us.These are the ers, the uhms, the youknows, etc. How to stop saying Um is one of the most common public speaking concerns. Um is a filler word. And filler words are a natural part of everyday conversation. A surprising fact, though, is that you'll actually sound strange (or even fake) to your audience if you don't use any filler words.However, there is a negative impact of using too many of these vocal fillers. If um, you say um, too many um, ums in your speech, the repeated use over and over will become a distraction. This excessive use of these filler words has the potential to detract from your message.A funny example of this was in the movie, We're the Millers. Scottie P., the young girl's date, keeps using the phrase, “You know what I'm sayin'” over and over. And, Jason Sudeikis' character calls attention to each of these verbal crutches in a very funny way.The good news about Scottie P. is that what makes this scene really funny is that most people don't use these filler phrases in everyday conversation. They show up more often when we are speaking in front of a group or delivering a formal presentation. If you understand why that happens, you can fix this bad habit very easily.The best speakers in the world have trained themselves, over time, to minimize their use of fillers. (Notice that I said minimize, not eliminate.) Excessive use of um and other filler noises can frustrate the audience and make the speaker less credible. With a bit of practice, though, you can use fewer filler words as well.Full Show Notes at How to Stop Saying Um When Presenting(https://www.fearlesspresentations.com/how-to-stop-saying-um-when-presenting/)
RISKS OF NEGLECTING GOOD POSTURE - MEREDITH HODGES - LUCKY THREE RANCH• We don't usually pay close enough attention to our good posture and often take it for granted• Important for both two-legged humans and four-legged equines• We get used to working in comfortable environments and don't realize the importance of how we are traveling until we are challenged with different situations.• Cindy should tell her story about what was required at the pageant and how she had to compensate when walking In heels on the unusually flat stage.• She realized it takes TIME to cultivate really good posture.• When we are in good posture and pay attention to it throughout all that we do, our daily tasks become beneficial postural exercises.• Core elements are strengthened in an ideal balance and performance is enhanced.• Soreness and compromised movement are no longer at risk.• Meredith tells the story of walking with Allie who had not practiced her postural leading exercises for 16 years.• Meredith was unable to walk in sync with Allie's gait, and her uneven balance caused a Chiropractic visit for Meredith because of a pinched nerve from being thrown off balance with every step.• In the halt, it was clear that Allie's spine was misaligned. She could not square up with the hind feet in line with her front feet. Her pelvis was torched, causing her toes to point to the side.• Tell the story when Dr. Haussler examined Rock when he got Laminitis. He expected Rock's spine to be irregularly bent from his ears to his tail, but it wasn't. This was due to the Postural Core Leading exercises he had been doing for months• As we age, we are more vulnerable to arthritis, bone injuries, and joint injuries if we do not continually “practice” good posture.• Treat ailments with natural methods and avoid drugs and surgeries whenever possible.• Have regular team checkups with the vet, chiropractor and massage therapist for good health.• Make sure exercise is appropriate for performance and not overdone.• Excessive exercise (drilling) does nothing more than exhaust the body in any living being. Increased performance and ability is then inhibited and not enhanced.• Therapy equines can do a better job when they are in good posture.• Saddle mules are less likely to take missteps and put you at risk on the trail.• Driving equines are less likely to have their bodies compromised and will gain longevity of use.• Healthy feeding and exercise can prevent obesity and other related problems...less vet costs and nearly no incidence of colic and founder.• Organs in the body are able to function in a healthy manner.• Riders are less likely to experience losses of balance, vertigo, and falls.• Overall performance in both equine and riders is enhanced.Mule Talk is an Every Cowgirl's Dream production - www.EveryCowgirlsDream.Com www.MuleTalk.Net Meredith Hodges Interviews: www.LuckyThreeRanch.Com/Podcast-Appearances/

We have spent nearly a century trying to make another gangster movie this good and some could argue we haven't done it yet. Being released before the Hay's code allows this movie to really speak it's mind and it does. With its loud commentary about the state of the US, strong female characters, sex, openly gay characters and nuance this movie is the perfect reminder of what the code took from us. It's a cliche for a reason, they don't make them like they used to. THE HAYS CODE: The "Don'ts" (Absolutely Forbidden) Profanity, including "God," "Jesus," or "hell" used irreverently. Nudity, in any form (including silhouettes). Illegal drug use. Sexual perversion (code word for homosexuality, fetishism, etc.). White slavery (human trafficking, especially of white women). Miscegenation (interracial romantic or sexual relationships). Scenes of childbirth, in fact or in silhouette Ridicule of clergy. Willful offense to any nation, race, or creed. The "Be Carefuls" (Sensitive Topics Requiring Caution) Use of firearms. Theft, robbery, and safe-cracking. Brutality and gruesomeness. Techniques of murder. Sympathy for criminals or crime success Adultery, if presented sympathetically or explicitly. Seduction. Sexual relationships outside of marriage. Excessive kissing or lustful embraces. Drunkenness, especially if humorous or sympathetic. Use of liquor in the presence of children. Mocking the law or law enforcement. Revenge in modern times as a moral justification.

The Real Truth About Health Free 17 Day Live Online Conference Podcast
Today, Brent sits down with Dr. Otis Brawley, a professor of oncology and epidemiology at Johns Hopkins University and former Chief Medical and Scientific Officer of the American Cancer Society. Dr. Brawley shares his expertise on cancer screening, shedding light on the often-overlooked risks of over-screening and unnecessary medical interventions. He challenges conventional wisdom, exploring how screenings can sometimes cause more harm than good and emphasizing the importance of evidence-based approaches to prevention and early detection. This conversation with Dr. Brawley highlights the need for prioritizing lifestyle changes, such as diet and exercise, over reliance on medical screenings alone. Hope you enjoy.

Nailing your training but can't shift those stubborn kilos? Maybe you’re battling gut issues despite a dialled-in nutrition plan or even dragging yourself through sessions after a solid 8 hours sleep. If this sounds all too familiar, it might be that your thyroid has been flying under the radar. As a sports dietitian, I'm seeing more triathletes pushing through these warning signs – constant fatigue, resistant weight, bloating, and mysterious gut problems – not realising there's a tiny butterfly-shaped gland in their neck calling the shots. Thyroid health isn’t my area of specialty so today I’m joined by Registered Dietitian and Functional Practitioner, Alisha Knicely, to talk about about how this powerful gland affects everything from your race-day performance to your Monday morning motivation. Diagnosed with an autoimmune thyroid disease in 2017, Alisha’s drive to understand what was happening in her body was a turning point in her career. She now specialises in Hashimoto’s and Hypothyroidism and helps her clients to reverse the symptoms of thyroid dysfunction. The Performance Powerhouse You're Overlooking Your thyroid is your body's metabolic control centre. It regulates your heart rate, energy levels, and even how quickly you bounce back from those brutal brick sessions. For triathletes pushing their bodies to the limit, optimal thyroid function isn't just helpful – it's essential. The Nutrient Trifecta Want your thyroid firing on all cylinders? You need three key players: iodine, selenium, and zinc. But here's the catch – more isn't always better. Like race-day nutrition, it's about getting the balance right. Strategic food choices like seafood, organ meats, and nuts can deliver these nutrients without the risks of over-supplementation. Red Flags You Can't Ignore If you're experiencing: - Unexplained fatigue despite proper rest - Stubborn weight changes - Slower recovery between sessions - Mood swings affecting your training drive It's time for a proper thyroid assessment. Don't guess – get tested. A comprehensive blood panel including TSH, T3, T4, and thyroid antibodies will tell you exactly where you stand. The Overtraining Connection Think you can push through anything? Think again. Excessive training without proper recovery can throw your thyroid into chaos. Those sleepless nights and persistent fatigue aren't badges of honour – they're warnings that your body needs a different approach. Your Action Plan for Optimal Thyroid Function Fuel Smart: Focus on nutrient-dense whole foods that support thyroid function Guard Your Gut: Your thyroid depends on proper nutrient absorption Manage Stress: Yes, that includes training stress – more isn't always better Beyond the Basics Living with a thyroid condition doesn't mean hanging up your tri suit. Whether you're managing Hashimoto's or just optimising your performance, it's about working with your body, not against it. Regular monitoring and professional guidance can keep you racing strong.

The Break Room (WEDNESDAY 4/30/25) 9am Hour 1) Based on the assumed age of this child, Kimmy didn't know whether to step in and help, or let them do this on their own. 2) Excessive emoji use
In the latest episode of our podcast, we tackle a topic that resonates with many: excessive screen time. In an age where our devices are an extension of ourselves, the impact of social media and digital distractions is becoming increasingly evident. Host M. Brianne Davis Gant candidly shares her personal experiences with screen addiction and its detrimental effects on mental health, particularly depression.Brianne opens the episode by expressing her disdain for social media, describing it as a force that "sucks the life out of me." This sentiment is not uncommon, as many individuals find themselves scrolling endlessly, only to feel empty and disconnected afterward. The irony is that while these platforms are designed to connect us, they often do the opposite, isolating us from real human interaction._____If you or anyone you know is struggling with addiction, depression, trauma, sexual abuse or feeling overwhelmed, we've compiled a list of resources at secretlifepodcast.com______To share your secret and be a guest on the show email secretlifepodcast@icloud.com_____SECRET LIFE'S TOPICS INCLUDE:addiction recovery, mental health, alcoholism, drug addiction, sex addiction, love addiction, OCD, ADHD, dyslexia, eating disorders, debt & money issues, anorexia, depression, shoplifting, molestation, sexual assault, trauma, relationships, self-love, friendships, community, secrets, self-care, courage, freedom, and happiness._____Create and Host Your Podcast with the same host we use - RedCircle_____Get your copy of SECRET LIFE OF A HOLLYWOOD SEX & LOVE ADDICT -- Secret Life Novel or on Amazon______HOW CAN I SUPPORT THE SHOW?Tell Your Friends & Share Online!Follow, Rate & Review: Apple Podcasts | SpotifyFollow & Listen iHeart | Stitcher | Google Podcasts | Amazon | PandoraSpread the word via social mediaInstagramTwitterFacebook#SecretLifePodcastDonate - You can also support the show with a one-time or monthly donation via PayPal (make payment to secretlifepodcast@icloud.com) or at our WEBSITE.Connect with Brianne Davis-Gantt (@thebriannedavis)Official WebsiteBrianne's Coaching WebsiteInstagramFacebookTwitterConnect with Mark Gantt (@markgantt)Main WebsiteDirecting WebsiteMark Gantt Coaching WebsiteInstagramFacebookTwitterSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/secret-life/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

They explore society's declining values, the rise in youth crime and how educational approaches impact children's development. Birbalsingh shares her philosophy of extreme ownership in schools, arguing that addressing small infractions prevents larger problems. They also discuss modern education, political correctness and the importance of teaching personal responsibility to create a better society. Katharine Burbalsingh REVEALS: Her broken windows theory approach to discipline Why society has become increasingly dangerous Why people are now afraid to confront wrongdoing That schools must teach children personal responsibility, duty towards others and self-sacrifice rather than victimhood How the absence of a Dad significantly impacts children's development and how society no longer recognises the importance of Dads How private schools have lost their way by embracing woke ideologies rather than maintaining traditional educational values That schools are microcosms of society, when schools change, society changes and vice versa Excessive bureaucracy and performative DEI training drain meaning and purpose from schools BEST MOMENTS "When you don't look after the details, the biggest stuff starts to happen... I say, what do you do when a kid throws a chair? What do you do when a kid gets up out of a lesson and angry and just marches out? I say, that never happens." "It's how you run a successful school, you care about those details and it's how you run a successful country, frankly." "Race relations were better in the nineties and the early two thousands than they are now. Religious issues in the country were better then than they are now. All this stuff around being LGBT and so on, all of it, everything was better then." "I've made a lot of money in my life and by far the best feeling is not all the cars I've bought. It's the money I've given away and the people I've helped." "Being a teacher is the best job in the world... Money makes life easier, but it doesn't bring you meaning."

Excessive regulations can strangle small businesses, delay job creation, and burden entrepreneurs with unnecessary red tape. But in Georgia, leaders are taking action to fix it. In this episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones to discuss the Red Tape Rollback Act, a bold initiative aimed at reducing government overreach and making the state more business-friendly. Jones explains how the legislation will require every state agency to regularly review and justify their regulations, ensuring only necessary and effective rules remain in place. He also highlights how regulatory burdens often create backlogs, slow licensing processes, and make it harder for individuals and businesses to thrive. As a lifelong businessman, Jones brings firsthand experience in dealing with government inefficiencies and is leading the charge to make Georgia a national model for streamlined governance. Tune in to hear how cutting through red tape will promote economic growth, create more opportunities, and put power back in the hands of the people.
