The whole system is called you circadian rhythms and you are about to take an interesting journey into how they work so that you can understand your personal circadian rhythms and how to optimize them. Here to explain it is Lynne Peeples. She is science journalist and former staff reporter at The Huffington Post. Her work has appeared in The Guardian, Scientific American, Nature and other publications. Lynne is also author of the book, The Inner Clock: Living in Sync with Our Circadian Rhythms (https://amzn.to/3XJWcWx) Do you know who built the first internal combustion engine-powered car?

Here to explore these questions and explain some of the amazing history of the automobile is Witold Rybczynski. He is an architect and emeritus professor of urbanism at the University of Pennsylvania. He has written 21 books with his latest being The Driving Machine: A Design History of the Car (https://amzn.to/3BlWCuN). Can dogs or cats be vegetarian or even vegan?

The Redding Civic Auditorium, built in 1970, is a unique venue that caters to concert-goers, trade show attendees, banquets, and much more. Flex seating allows the capacity to change based on the size or style of the event. Even though it serves many entertainment functions in our community, the Civic sometimes doesn't get the credit it deserves.  Today we talk with Julie Dyar, General Manager of the Redding Civic Auditorium, and while she admits that the design of the building is polarizing, she believes the foresight in the flex seating capacity is just one of the elements that has made the venue last as long as it has in our community. We'll also find out what it takes to book a show, what makes Redding a good market, and how ticket prices are calculated. She'll also dispel a few longstanding myths about who runs and owns the Civic. There are a ton of exciting acts hitting the Redding Civic Auditorium soon—including the biggest outdoor stage ever to grace the Civic this fall. With more to come in the next year, there has never been a better time to check out all the great shows coming to our area.Learn more about the Redding Civic >>Read the transcript >>Contact the City of Redding Podcast Team Email us at podcast@cityofredding.org Connect with us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram Visit the City of Redding website Love the podcast?

The Chuck Williams Culinary Arts Museum, located at The Culinary Institute of America at Copia, in Napa, CA, is home to more than 4,000 culinary artifacts from the Williams Sonoma Founder's personal collection. The exhibit includes a collection of terrines, dating from the 1700s through the 1900s. A terrine refers both to the dish it's baked in, and to the dish itself. The literal translation of “terrine” in French is "large earthenware pot.” Terrine dishes were frequently crafted in the likeness of animals, meant to depict the main ingredient contained within the terrine itself, with shapes ranging from lambs, boars or pigs, ducks, geese, and other game birds. The museum's French Covered Hare Paté Terrine, dates from 1790-1830, and was used to serve Terrine Au Lapin, or rabbit terrine.  Learn more about the museum and visiting hours: https://www.ciaatcopia.com/chuck-williams-culinary-arts-museum/ Watch videos about a selection of museum artifacts: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVtTKvDDq_huEOZFb2GNC3ybFk_WnGFyX Special thanks to Williams Sonoma Inc.

Vietnam is a country with a rich (albeit complicated) history. Before communism, it was torn apart by civil strife, pegging northern forces against southern. Prior to that, it was under the colonial yoke, when France claimed it as part of its overseas empire. But before all this, a power known as the Champa Kingdom ruled over the country's southern half, leaving behind the hallmarks of its civilization in the form of temple complexes and palaces.

About All in Her Head, Dr. Elizabeth Comen's new book on The Fascinating History of Women's Health.

Between Scott, my partner, and I, Scott is definitely more of a foodie. When I found Gastropod, I realized that while my palate isn't as refined as Scott's, I do love to learn about the history and science behind food. Gastropod feels like the podcast equivalent of eating comfort food. I hope you enjoy learning food science in a fun way as much as I do!  Links from this episode: Kid Podcast Guide   View the rest of the show notes on the Friendly Podcast Guide Website  

Ouch! If you're a parent, there will surely come a day when your child injures herself. How you respond in the moment is important! Tune in to hear some tips from Miranda about keeping your kiddos (and maybe yourself) calm in the heat of a *painful* moment. And, speaking of painful moments, Mel shares about how a beer chicken gave her a full-on Zombie arm... weird right?? But the weirdness doesn't stop there (it never does!) because Mel teaches us about the unusual history of Band-Aids! Mel tells us the things we never needed to know about the product we never knew we needed... until we did! So throw a wine cooler in your first aid kit (it doubles as an ice pack, right?) and let's get going! Spotlight:PROJECT CURE (Commission on Urgent Relief and Equipment) Since 1987, Project C.U.R.E has been delivering life-saving medical equipment and supplies to hospitals and clinics throughout the under-resourced world.

In the vibrant tapestry of homeschooling, we find an educational journey that champions curiosity and flexibility over rigid curriculums, much like the historical fight between AC and DC electricity—each a metaphor for the value of diverse learning approaches. Through personal stories, Tatiana and Heidi delve into the art of tailoring education to fit each child's unique interests and needs, underscoring the importance of community and mentorship in enriching the homeschooling experience. This discussion goes beyond traditional education to highlight the significance of preparing children for an ever-changing future through a growth mindset. Emphasizing project-based learning and real-world applications, it advocates for an educational philosophy that fosters a genuine love for learning, aiming not just to prepare children for academic success but for life's broader challenges. At its core, Heidi & Tati's discussion promotes Leadership Education as the essence of homeschooling—a strategy that nurtures future leaders by leveraging curiosity, adaptability, and hands-on experiences. It's a call to reimagine education as a journey of discovery, growth, and preparation for life's infinite possibilities. 00:00 Introduction 00:15 The Fascinating History of Electricity 00:42 The Battle of Currents: Edison vs Tesla 02:39 The Impact of AC and DC Current in Modern Life 03:37 Applying Lessons from History to Homeschooling 04:13 Personal Homeschooling Experiences and Challenges 04:51 The Importance of Adapting to Each Child's Needs 05:28 The Role of Leadership Education in Homeschooling 06:47 The Value of Flexibility and Community in Homeschooling 14:21 The Power of Project-Based Learning 18:39 The Importance of Lifelong Learning and Growth Mindset 25:23 The Role of Curiosity in Future Success 30:29 The Value of Community in Homeschooling 45:17 Conclusion: Embracing the Homeschooling Journey LINKS Reason to Believe – podcast – a physicist.

We are thrilled to engage in a conversation with the remarkable breast oncologist, Dr Elizabeth Comen, hailing from the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in the US. Our focus is on unravelling the intricate history of women's hormones, as we embark on a journey to comprehend the missteps along the way.“The history of women's healthcare is a story in which women themselves have too often been voiceless—a narrative instead written from the perspective of men who styled themselves as authorities on the female of the species, yet uninformed by women's own voices, thoughts, fears, pain and experiences. The result is a cultural and societal legacy that continues to shape the (mis)treatment and care of women”, writes Dr Comen.“All in Her Head” is Dr Comen's new book and wow - This book will upend everything you thought you knew about your body while empowering you to make better decisions moving forward.

There is lots of information out there about the menopause but hardly any if you have had a cancer diagnosis as well. Many people say to me they have no idea what their options are, who to ask for help, and that they feel really isolated in their experiences. I started this podcast because there was nothing out there when I was thrown into surgical menopause at the age of 39, which followed on from my cancer diagnosis aged 33.Through the episodes, I want to create more awareness, share information from our fabulous guest experts, doctors and other specialists in the cancer and menopause field. And of course, I will share stories from the people in our community.So that together we can work towards a better menopause experience. For all of us.More educated, better informed and less alone.Connect with us:For more information and resources visit our website: www.menopauseandcancer.org Or follow us on Instagram @menopause_and_cancerJoin our Facebook group:

Legendary music artists The Supremes and Harry Belafonte passed through there. It was a place of prestige and pride for Philadelphia's Black population. Such was the early legacy of the Nile Swim Club, which, in the late 1950s, opened in response to racial segregation in the borough of Yeadon. But with the passing of time, the club's allure began to change. Declines in enrollment became so sharp that Nile was ultimately forced to declare bankruptcy. In recent years, benefactors have emerged to save the club, and reset its role in the community it serves. West Chester University Professor of History Dr. Bob Kodosky, author of The Nile Swim Club of Yeadon: A History, shares stories about the club's past, and looks ahead to its future.

During my episode with Steve about his road trip adventures, my intrigue for roadside attractions skyrocketed. These kitschy landmarks, found sprinkled along America's highways, had always been curiosities to me. I realized that these attractions were not just random oddities - they were pieces of history, each with a unique story of creativity, entrepreneurship, and cultural significance. My fascination for these attractions turned into an appreciation for the local artistry and the spirit of adventure they embodied. From the colossal Paul Bunyan to the world's largest ketchup bottle, each attraction seemed to symbolize America's cultural tapestry in its distinctive way. I discovered how roadside attractions not just added a sense of whimsy to a road trip but also served as a testament to American optimism - a belief that anything was possible., In this episode, we will: We'll take a thrilling trip back to the early 20th century and uncover the spirit of adventure that sparked the creation of these roadside wonders. Discover how the rise of the automobile transformed the American landscape, leading to the emergence of eye-catching attractions along the highways. Immerse yourself in the golden age of roadside attractions, where we'll showcase beloved classics like the Wigwam Motels and nostalgic diners that continue to enchant travelers. Learn about the resurgence of roadside attractions, inspired by counterculture movements and artistic expressions like the famous Muffler Men statues. Finally, we'll explore how roadside attractions have adapted to the digital age, blending nostalgia with modern cultural influences and embracing the impact of social media.

An amazing number of dogs get stolen every year. And it's all about the money. This episode begins with a look at this growing crime and why you should keep a close eye on your pet. https://petkeen.com/dognapping-dog-theft-statistics/ When people are told they are too sensitive, it is usually not a compliment. Being sensitive is often looked at as a weakness – a character flaw. What sensitive people need to do is toughen up. Well, not so fast, says Jenn Granneman. While being sensitive can have challenges, that sensitivity is also a super power. Listen as she champions those who are labeled sensitive with research to back up her beliefs. Then she offers some terrific advice to help sensitive people deal with a not-so-sensitive world. She also has excellent advice if you are not highly sensitive but have sensitive people in your life. Jenn is author of the book Sensitive: The Hidden Power of the Highly Sensitive Person in a Loud, Fast, Too-Much World (https://amzn.to/456D3Qu). Think of how much recorded sound plays a role in your life. Music, podcasts, radio, movie and TV sound – recorded sound is important to us. From Thomas Edison's first cylindrical recordings to digital downloads and streaming, the history of recorded sound is fascinating. Joining me to tell that story is Jonathan Scott author of the book Into the Groove :The Story of Sound From Tin Foil to Vinyl (https://amzn.to/3Kh1d2Q).

In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Jonathan Sadowsky, the Theodore J. Castele Professor of Medical History at Case Western Reserve University. In addition to his work as an academic, Dr. Sadowsky has written three books, the most recent being The Empire of Depression: A New History. He also has an upcoming publication from Routledge Press entitled Electroconvulsive Therapy in America: The Anatomy of a Medical Controversy.   Dr. Sadowsky engages with a variety of interesting topics, including his primary concentration: the history of psychiatry in Africa and the United States. Although he didn't expect to dive so deep into this research area, his background in African history paved the way for his immense fascination with mental illnesses – specifically how they are quantified and treated across time and cultures… Offer: TRĒ House products are crafted to bring you the best that legal, delivered-to-your-door THC has to offer.

For today's conversation, I was thrilled to chat once again with Christian Beckwith, a Jackson, Wyoming-based writer, historian, conservationist, and entrepreneur. Christian's latest project is “Ninety-Pound Rucksack: A podcast about the US Army's 10th Mountain Division and the dawn of outdoor recreation in America.” - If you enjoy spending time up high in the mountains here in the American West, then you've surely heard at least a passing mention of the 10th Mountain Division. It's nearly impossible to travel up and down the I-70 corridor here in Colorado without seeing a few references to the 10th. But if you're like me, you probably do not have a sufficient appreciation for the exciting story of how and why the division was formed, and how its creation set the trajectory for climbing, skiing, and recreational outdoor adventure for decades to come. - Whether you're a climber, skier, or simply a history buff who enjoys diving into untold stories from pivotal moments in our past, then I highly recommend Ninety-Pound Rucksack. The podcast starts out exploring the 1939 Russian invasion of Finland, and how, despite being outmatched on nearly every level, the Fins were able to put up a heroic fight thanks to their ability to efficiently maneuver through cold, snowy, rugged terrain on skis. The story then shifts to America, where a small group of young mountaineers and skiers recognized the importance of mountain warfare and began to lobby the government to focus on this unconventional approach to battle. I won't give any more details away, but the podcast is just the kind of history I love: big adventures, one-of-a-kind characters, and people driven by causes larger than themselves. - To learn more about Christian's personal background, I'd encourage you to go back and listen to our first conversation from many years ago. Because in this one, we talk all history, all the time– from the backstory of the 10th, to the adventurous young men who dreamed it up, to how that time period affects us still today. Toward the end of the conversation, Christian offers up some valuable wisdom on the need to be tenacious in all creative and entrepreneurial endeavors, and he also has some really great book recommendations. - Follow the links in the episode notes to listen to Ninety-Pound Rucksack, and please pass the podcast along to any of your history-loving friends. A big thanks to Christian for working so hard to create this podcast and for joining me for another conversation.
