Why do physical laws have their specific form? Host Curt Jaimungal shows this question is a philosophical knot, because any "explanation" must itself stand on a law.

Due to Eddie Vedder's case of food poisoning that affected Pearl Jam's 1995 show at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, California, many of the remaining dates on that summer's run had to be rescheduled for the fall. The band played five shows in the first week of November that started with two in Salt Lake City, then a make up for Golden Gate in San Jose before finishing up in one of Ed's old stomping grounds for two shows in San Diego. Since this episode covers the last night of the tour year, we'll get to tackle a show that can be seen as a full circle moment with special performances that truly defined their setlists and sound in 1995. First of all, this is a very heavy Jack Irons show - something that we always wax poetically about whenever we get the opportunity to cover one of the few years that he was with the group. He's presence is hypnotic. Every time you hear a Jack performance, you can instantly notice that it's him behind the kit. This show features some incredible versions of Jack songs, but perhaps none better than Corduroy with a solo that is absolutely out of this world. We'll also dig into his "surf rock" influence on Alive and profound tempo on Oceans. This show also features what are considered the rare gems of 1995 such as the alternate version entitled No (or New) Jeremy, Red Mosquito in it's infancy and a full band OTOTO performance of legendary Who song, I Can't Explain. We invite in Patrick Boegel from the Hallucinogenic Recipe podcast to help out on this one, and we'll make an attempt to figure out whether Howard Stern had the right to be upset with Ed for calling Glorified G "a song I hate". Yes, this show features THAT version! Visit the Concertpedia - http://liveon4legs.com Contact the Show - liveon4legspodcast@gmail.com Donate to the Show - http://patreon.com/liveon4legs

What if space and time aren't real, and consciousness is the true fabric of the universe? In this mind-expanding conversation of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Donald Hoffman, pioneering cognitive scientist and author of The Case Against Reality, breaks down the revolution currently shaking science to its core. Could everything we experience — even space and time — be just part of a virtual interface our minds use to survive? Dr. Hoffman explains why consciousness (not matter) might be fundamental, what could exist beyond space-time, and why merging science and spirituality may be the only way to solve the Hard Problem of Consciousness. He also breaks down why: - Reality may just be what we perceive through a VR headset - Thinking you are your body could be one of humanity's greatest dangers - AI will never truly be conscious - Consciousness doesn't arise from physical processes, but might create them - Darwin's Theory of Evolution may suggest our world isn't real at all - Technology could be clouding our ability to perceive God - Recognizing a higher consciousness naturally leads to compassion and love for others - Building a scientific framework for spirituality could allow science to finally confirm what mystics have always known - His mathematical model of consciousness may reveal a collective mind & even prove the existence of God - His theory of the observer could unlock real magic: time travel, instant knowledge downloads, limb regeneration, and more We may have discovered the first layer of the Simulation's software; once we understand it, can we manipulate it to create magic? But with this potential power comes danger — if we unlock reality's source code, what happens next? Dr. Hoffman believes that if science proves consciousness is fundamental, confirming spirituality itself, the impact on humanity will be unlike anything we've ever seen. If consciousness really is the code behind reality, this might be the most important conversation of our lifetime. Don't miss it!

What if healing isn't about becoming more, it's about remembering who you already are? In today's episode of The Healing + Human Potential Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Martha Beck for one of the most profound and heart-opening conversations I've had about healing, awakening, and living in truth.  Dr. Beck opens up about the out-of-body psychic experience during surgery that became her doorway from trauma and anxiety into joy, peace, and wholeness. She reveals the messages she received from the light of consciousness and so much more. With three degrees from Harvard, she reminds us that true wisdom lives where science meets spirit – in the lived experience of awakening. Together, we explore what it really means to awaken while staying grounded in the body – how to find safety in spirituality after trauma, and why awakening isn't about striving but about releasing what isn't true. We also dive into gentle, trauma-informed entry points to meditation, her framework for dissolving anxiety, the importance of shadow integration, and joy as a spiritual strength.  I can't wait to hear how this episode resonates & what opens up for you.    === Episode Time Stamps 00:00 – Intro 00:48 – Paranormal experiences, awakening, living beyond anxiety 03:05 – The OR Experience: "I wasn't dead, but I left my body" 06:15 – Communion, joy, and the core messages 09:58 – Waking Up  12:00 – Aftermath: Trauma flashbacks, life upheaval, and the light remains 16:40 – What Science Can / Can't Explain about NDEs 19:30 – Psychic: Remote Viewing Stories during Pregnancy 22:05 – "What if a Critical Mass Awakened?"

In this week's episode of the Artist Academy Podcast, I'm diving into one of the trickiest parts of being a working artist—what to do when hiring help or collaborating with another artist doesn't go as planned. Recently I had back-to-back coaching calls asking me questions that centered around the complications that arise when artists work together. They asked, “Have you ever had drama with coworker artists?” I laughed because oh boy have I! I've hired friends to work with me that didn't work out. I've under and overpaid artists. I've experienced expectations not being met and the complications that came with it. I've worked with people who are great communicators and others who held issues in and let it build up to the point of exploding on a job site. I feel like I am the perfect person to talk about this subject having been on all ends of this issue. What do you do when…? Another artist thinks they need to be paid more than you're offering. An artist you're counting on cancels the day before. The artist you hired paints slow and won't speed up. The artist makes a small/big mistake on the job. Your artist friend suddenly treats you like competition. A fellow artist copies your mural design or idea. Your helper posts the mural on their page and tags you weirdly (or doesn't tag you at all). Tips: Always over-communicate and remind them. Explain why. Set expectations in writing, even if it's just a text. Hire quick, fire fast — 1, 2 strike, you're out. Day 1: trial day

Bitcoin fans say it's the future. I say: show me how it actually solves real-world money problems. In this episode, I walk through the biggest unanswered questions I still have about Bitcoin: volatility, inheritance keys, "who's in charge," government visibility, and why I still prefer AND assets like dividend-paying whole life over OR assets like BTC.

We all seem to believe that there's nothing left to explain. There are millions of articles, books and stories out there. Yet, there's always a way to cut through the clutter. No matter how much information exists, some people are still able to communicate in a way that gets and keep your attention. Here's how you go about it.

This month we are honored to be joined by Georgia de Leeuw who is a post-doctoral researcher in Human Rights Studies at Lund University. Georgia's research has focused on Swedish mining and steel transition, in which steel is produced with hydrogen instead of coal. We start the conversation talking about Swedish exceptionalism and what this means in relation to mining. This opens into a more general discussion of the colonial project and how it has played out in the Nordic context. Within the Nordic context, while colonialism did not often include crossing an ocean, there has still been intense colonial activity in the north and continuing violations of Indigenous rights. We then continue into discussing the role of techno optimism and how extractivism is framed by industry as a positive project, something that is required for development and survival. Georgia looks at advocates and resistance to mining and green steel through the lens of psychoanalysis. Join us for this amazing conversation!Would you like to learn more about Georgia's work? https://portal.research.lu.se/en/persons/georgia-de-leeuwArtists and other resources mentioned in the show:Reindeer herder and co-author of forthcoming article: Rickard Länta, leading figure in the Sami resistance against mining in Jåhkågasska reindeer herding communityAuthors:Elin Anna Labba, Ann-Helén LaestadiusMovies:Stolen (2024) accessible on Neflix, based on the book by Ann-Helen LaestadiusLet the River Flow (2023)Artists: Anders Sunna, Timimie Märak and Maxida Märak, Sofia Jannok

Rangers Can't Explain This 2,200 Year Old Mystery Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We always hear about how little service workers are paid because restaurants operate on such thin margins. Jeremy Bradley calls BS on that. Why? "Explain $14 less-than-full glasses of wine when I can buy an entire bottle for $4 at Trader Joe's," he says. "I'm paying $7 for a side of fries that equals one potato. Would you ever pay $7 for one potato?" Yes, factor in the prep time (if potatoes are cut in-house), materials (oil, fryer, etc.) but isn't $7 a little extreme for a fried potato? On top of that, JB takes issue that he's expected to "reward" staff for walking back and forth to do their jobs when it comes to tipping. Later, he explains that he doesn't appreciate apps that solicit customers to tip before anything is even done with an order -- and manipulate customers with messaging like "orders with higher tips are often taken first" or "it's raining, tip generously." NMP, he says -- not - my - problem -- about workers earning low wages or driving in rain if they agreed to take the job.

So far, the U.S. has blown up 14 boats in the Caribbean and the Pacific, killing at least 57 people. In the two months since the strikes began, the administration has consistently offered the same explanation: The U.S. has a fentanyl overdose problem, and these boats are a source of that drug. The federal government has stuck to that line despite the Drug Enforcement Administration and Department of Homeland Security saying most of the fentanyl brought into this country comes from Mexico, not through the Caribbean. Nancy Youssef covers national security for The Atlantic. She joins the show to discuss the strikes, the administration's changes to the military, and the lack of transparency in the transformed Pentagon.

102925 Todays Show Is Very Short and I WIll Explain Why - Life and Grief and Priorities by Kate Dalley

This is it — the final Halloween episode of the season and the crew goes out with a full stomach and zero chill. We kick things off with a Kelly Fact that blew our minds: trick-or-treating traces back to medieval “souls cakes”, when folks went door-to-door offering prayers for the dead in exchange for cake. FNBob immediately wants the recipe; Henvincible warns it sounds like another questionable British dish. Next, FNBob casually flexes his new academic cred — a doctorate in Meta Physics — and reminds everyone he's also an ordained minister now (because why not). Costume roll call: FNBob rocks a Hogwarts dropout Ravenclaw look, Henvincible is Tanjiro Kamado from Demon Slayer, and Kelly turns heads in an inflated Fall Guy suit. Adulting turtles the conversation into taxes, car headaches, and bad drivers — but mostly we talk food. The crew goes full “fat asses” mode tasting and debating halal spots, and FNBob teases a Chicago food map he's building to crown the city's best bites. Real Chicago foodie tea gets spilled: tavern-style pizza is a tourist term, Southsiders judge restaurants by “how's the fish,” and the eternal debate — turkey tips as rib replacements — explodes into comic fury. Henvincible mentions cauliflower pizza and FNBob has a meltdown you'll want to hear. It's the perfect mix of history, costumes, food, and the kind of ridiculous arguments only the Nonsense crew could sustain. Final jack-o'-lantern: lit. Final bite: messy. Final laugh: guaranteed. ⭐ Show Highlights Kelly Fact: the medieval origin of souls cake → trick-or-treating's wild roots. FNBob's new flex: Doctorate in Meta Physics + ordained minister status. Costume show-and-tell: Ravenclaw dropout, Tanjiro Kamado, and an inflated Fall Guy. Adulting rage: taxes, cars, and Chicago driving nightmares. FNBob's upcoming Chicago food map — tour-worthy recommendations incoming. South Side food rules: restaurants judged by “How's the fish?” Food fight: turkey tips vs pork ribs (spoiler: it gets heated). Cauliflower pizza mention sparks FNBob's culinary meltdown — comedic gold. ❓ Question of the Day Are turkey tips a worthy stand-in for pork ribs — sacrilege or smart swap? (Explain your take!)

Send us a textA biophysical rethink of life, health, and disease through the lens of the Energy Resistance Principle (ERP).Episode Summary: A reframe of biology as energy flow through resistance rather than mere molecular machinery, introducing the Energy Resistance Principle (ERP): life requires a Goldilocks balance of electron flow from food to oxygen via mitochondria; too much or too little resistance drives aging, disease, and death. Explain mitochondria as energy transformers, link ERP to insulin resistance, psychiatric disorders, and healing, and explore health as a dynamic field-like state optimized by flux modulation.About the guest: Nirosha Murugan, PhD is a biophysicist studying how physical signals pattern biology to decode and reprogram health; Martin Picard, PhD is a mitochondrial psychobiologist at Columbia University, exploring how mitochondrial energy dynamics connect to human experiences, health, and healing. They collaborate on biophotons, light emission, and multi-scale energy signaling.Discussion Points:Mitochondria transform electrons from food into versatile electricity via proton gradients.Energy Resistance Principle: transformation needs resistance; chronic high resistance causes dissipative heat, damage, aging.GDF15 cytokine signals mitochondrial stress to brain, triggering energy conservation/mobilization.Insulin resistance: adaptive defense against electron overload, reversible by fasting/exercise.Psychiatric illness: excess brain energy resistance; exercise, keto, psychedelics redistribute flux.Health: dynamic optimization of energy resistance, not absence of disease.Healing: daily recovery from micro-damage via balanced resistance.Future: energy-based diagnostics/therapies (light, TMS) over molecule-only drugs.*Not medical advice.Reference Paper: The energy resistance principleRelated Episode:M&M 70: Mitochondria, Aging, Cellular Energy, Metabolism, Gray Hair Reversal & Brain-Body Communication | Martin PicardSupport the showAffiliates: Seed Oil Scout: Find restaurants with seed oil-free options, scan food products to see what they're hiding, with this easy-to-use mobile app. KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + electrolytes formulated for kidney health.

With the weather changing toward Winter, it is a good time to check our batteries, so we decided to revisit an earlier discussion to start ... the discussion.Ever wonder why your car starts strong some mornings and struggles on others? We take you under the hood of battery choices that actually affect daily reliability, from budget-friendly picks at big-box stores to premium designs built for harsh conditions, high-current audio builds, and weekend toys that sit for weeks at a time. Our goal is simple: help you pick a battery that fits your vehicle, your climate, and your lifestyle without wasting money on features you don't need.We move brand by brand through a no-nonsense ranking: EverStart and Interstate for accessible value, Motorcraft and AC Delco for OEM confidence, Bosch for dependable mid-tier coverage, and Antigravity for lithium lightness where every pound counts. For enthusiasts and workhorses, we break down why XS Power and Odyssey excel under heavy loads and frequent deep cycles, and how their warranties and construction translate into fewer headaches over years of use. Then we spotlight DieHard's enduring reputation and Optima's spiral-wound advantage, explaining RedTop vs YellowTop vs BlueTop so you match cranking power, deep-cycle resilience, and marine readiness to the job at hand.Along the way, we unpack AGM versus traditional flooded lead-acid, when lithium makes sense, and how to read warranty terms that actually protect you. We also cover practical buying tips: verifying group size and reserve capacity, understanding OEM recommendations, and deciding when paying more now saves you from a tow later. If your vehicle has added lights, winches, or a big audio system, or if it sits for long stretches, you'll walk away knowing which chemistry and brand can handle the load with fewer surprises.If this helped you think smarter about batteries, subscribe for more straight-talk car guidance, share with a friend who loves a weekend project, and leave a quick review to tell us which brand has lasted the longest for you.Be sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!The Lupe' Tortilla RestaurantsLupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas Gulf Coast Auto ShieldPaint protection, tint, and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

“Money doesn't grow on trees! Pull my finger!” Some dad phrases are goofy. But others? They can be quite hurtful, even if we don't mean for them to be. In this episode of the All Pro Dad Podcast, host Ted Lowe is joined by BJ Foster and Bobby Lewis to talk about common phrases we need to cut out.Why This MattersWords aren't neutral with our kids. They are either helpful or hurtful.Phrases That Make Kids Feel Small and Unheard1. "Stop crying or I'll give you something to cry about." Instead, try: "It's okay to feel sad/frustrated/scared. Tell me what's going on." 2. “What's wrong with you?”Instead, try: "That choice wasn't like you. Help me understand what happened. Phrases That Can Hurt Our Connection With Our Kids3. "When I was your age…" Instead, try: "You are growing up in a different world than I did.  Explain it to me like I'm a martian. 4. “You are making me crazy.”Instead, try: "I'm feeling really frustrated right now. I need a minute, and then we can talk about.” Phrases That Can Mess Up How Our Kids See Authority and Even God5. "Because I said so." Instead, try: "Focus on natural consequences and clear boundaries: "If you don't pick up your toys, they'll be put away for a week."6. “I'm disappointed in you.”Instead, try: "I'm disappointed with that choice you made, and I know you can do better."Important Episode Timestamps 00:00 – 02:36 | Dad Phrases We All Say02:36 – 04:09 | Southern Sayings and Dad Humor04:09 – 05:08 | The Big Question: What Should Dads Stop Saying?05:08 – 08:52 | “Stop Crying or I'll Give You Something to Cry About”08:52 – 10:00 | “What's Wrong with You?” and “What Were You Thinking?”10:00 – 13:05 | “When I Was Your Age” and “You're Making Me Crazy”13:05 – 17:52 | “Because I Said So” and the Problem with Authority17:52 – End | “I'm Disappointed in You” and the Weight of WordsAPD Pro Move:This week, before you correct, question, or even joke with your child, pause for just one second and ask yourself, 'Is what I'm about to say hurtful or helpful for my kid?All Pro Dad Resources:Episode 61 – What ProbWe love feedback, but can't reply without your email address.

It Takes Less Time To Do A Thing Right Than To Explain Why You Did It Wrong

In this special episode of the podcast, originally hosted by Indico Data's Unstructured Unlocked, Matthew Grant, CEO of InsTech, joins Tom Wilde and Michelle Gouveia to discuss how insurers are harnessing third-party data and AI to make more informed, efficient underwriting decisions. With over 25 years in catastrophe modelling and analytics, Matthew shares his view on where the real innovation is happening and where insurers are still facing friction. From the rising value of external data sources to the operational impact of generative AI, the conversation is packed with insights that go beyond the buzzwords. InsTech is sharing this episode to highlight the practical challenges and opportunities facing carriers and reinsurers as they modernise their approach to risk. What you'll learn Why many insurers still struggle to access the most basic risk data What third-party data needs to prove before it's trusted in underwriting How AI is changing both the speed and depth of catastrophe modelling When it makes sense for carriers to build proprietary models—and when it doesn't What reinsurers have taught the market about effective model use The quiet power of improving underwriting efficiency, not just accuracy How better data and analytics can help insurers write more risk with more confidence If you like what you're hearing, please leave us a review on whichever platform you use or contact Matthew Grant on LinkedIn.

The Intensity is Real, But Your Power is Greater.Acknowledge the current intense environment (mentally, emotionally, globally).Reintroduce the core belief: When you are soul-centered, you are more powerful than anything.The problem: We absorb "heavier energies" without realizing it.The Core Practice: 5-to-10 Conscious Cycles.Break down the simple, powerful formula (5-10 breaths).Affirmation Focus: Dedicate each in-breath to calm and centering ("Breathing in, I calm my body, mind, and emotions.") and each out-breath to release ("Breathing out, I release all heavier energies and attachments...").The Command: Lock in the shielding and safety ("I am centered. I am safe. I am surrounded and infused with divine light and shielding. And SO IT IS.").Energetic Inventory & Regulation.Explain the concept: Continuously stay aware of what is yours and not yours—mentally and emotionally.This is not just for spiritual folks; this is nervous system regulation at its finest. When you release what isn't yours, your system calms down.The Cleanest Frequency: Nature.Why Nature is a non-negotiable step. It is the least contaminated, cleanest frequency on the planet right now.Practical call to action: Walk barefoot, sit by a tree, simply Breathe in the natural air. This simple act recenters your entire spirit.Conclusion: Keep Returning Here.Reiterate that Breath is the connect point, the clearing, and the recentering.Encouragement to practice daily, especially during moments of intensity.Wim Hof breathing techniques, which focus on deep, intentional breath cycles, can help regulate the autonomic nervous system, a key component in managing stress and emotional energy, which directly correlates with the "conscious in and out breaths" and "nervous system regulation" mentioned in your notes. Join Grandpa Bill for your daily dose of holistic wisdom, health, and high-vibe wellness. From the power of Wim Hof breathing to managing your energy field, this podcast cuts through the noise to deliver practical, soul-centered strategies for all ages. It's a healing hour that keeps you grounded, healthy, and connected to your inner power.In a world of constant noise, how do we use a simple, 5-breath cycle to instantly discern between our energy and the heavy energies we unknowingly carry!Podcasts-#BreathIsTheBridge, #EnergeticBoundaries ,#SoulCenteredLiving, #NervousSystemRegulation ,#GrandpaBill #SilverStreakers, #WimHofWisdom ,#ConnectToNature #CleanFrequency #HolisticHealing,

Are telepathy & mind-reading real? Can consciousness exist beyond the brain? Are we living multiple lives at once? The Telepathy Tapes: Season 2 EXCLUSIVE with Filmmaker Ky Dickens  In this jaw-dropping, mind-expanding episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, award-winning filmmaker and viral podcast host Ky Dickens returns with a first look at Season 2 of The Telepathy Tapes — and what she reveals will challenge everything you think you know about the human mind, death, and the nature of reality. Ky shares real stories of people accessing impossible knowledge through telepathy and remote viewing, whether plants communicate with us (she says yes and shares her personal proof!), and scientific experiments she has personally witnessed that are finally taking telepathy seriously. Ky Dickens also breaks down:- How Alzheimer's, dementia, and even death can unlock extrasensory abilities-  The mystifying moment when the brain shuts down...and something else turns on- Why children learn PSI abilities faster than adults- Scientific experiments that are finally taking telepathy seriously- What nonspeakers are saying after death, and how it's changing science- Telepathic communication medical caregivers are witnessing in hospitals- Differences between talking to the dead vs the living, telepathically- Is Consciousness manifesting its will through us?- Why unlocking one PSI ability often activates others- Shocking idea that we're living multiple lives simultaneously- Why our beliefs about the afterlife may be based on ancient NDEs- Are these once-taboo topics going mainstream? PLUS...Ky shares her candid response to being attacked by materialists after Season 1, and how Season 2 may crush skepticism for good! Whether you're a skeptic, seeker, or scientist, this conversation will leave you questioning reality…and maybe even stepping outside of it.

In this episode of Monitoring the Situation, Marc Andreessen, Katherine Boyle, and Erik Torenberg dive into the movies that best explain America, from Once Upon a Time in Hollywood to Tropic Thunder to Fight Club.They explore how Tarantino's revisionist masterpiece reimagines 1969 and the end of America's cultural innocence, why Tropic Thunder was the last truly un-cancellable comedy, and how Fight Club evolved from a left-wing critique of capitalism to a right-wing prophecy about alienation and identity.Along the way, they trace the parallels between the counterculture of the 1960s and the internet culture wars of the 2010s, and debate whether we're living through another great American cultural reset. Resources:Follow Marc on X: https://x.com/pmarcaFollow Katherine on X: https://x.com/KTmBoyle Stay Updated: If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to like, subscribe, and share with your friends!Find a16z on X: https://x.com/a16zFind a16z on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16zListen to the a16z Podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5bC65RDvs3oxnLyqqvkUYXListen to the a16z Podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a16z-podcast/id842818711Follow our host: https://x.com/eriktorenbergPlease note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

The federal government shutdown is now in its fourth week. Over 700,000 federal employees have been furloughed, with nearly as many continuing to work without pay, yet there are still no signs that an end to the shutdown is near. “Unlike past presidents, Mr. Trump appears to feel little urgency to strike a deal to reopen the government,” Luke Broadwater writes at The New York Times. “Instead, he has used the shutdown, which began Oct. 1, as an opportunity to further remake the federal bureaucracy and jettison programs he does not like, seizing on unorthodox budgetary maneuvers that some have called illegal.” In this episode, we speak with three furloughed federal employees about the harm government shutdowns cause working people, and we discuss why this shutdown is different. Guests: Adam is a furloughed federal employee who works in recreation for the US Forest Service, managing hiking, biking, and equestrian trails in central Idaho. He serves as chapter president of National Federation of Federal Employees Local 1753, and he is an organizer with the Federal Unionists Network. Ellen is a furloughed federal employee who works in SNAP oversight and administration at the USDA Food and Nutrition Service. She serves as chapter president of National Treasury Employees Union Local 255, representing FNS employees at the Northeast regional office, and she is an organizer with the Federal Unionists Network in Boston. April is a furloughed federal employee who works in the office of Head Start at the Administration for Children and Families HQ in Washington, DC. She serves as chapter president of the National Treasury Employees Union Local 250.
