In this episode, Jason and Makenzie dive into the real purpose of ESOP feasibility and why it's far more than just another spreadsheet. They break down what “feasibility” truly means in an ESOP transaction and walk through the key factors companies should evaluate, from existing debt to entity structure (S-corp vs. C-corp) to long-term sustainability. They also dig into how feasibility helps determine whether an ESOP will genuinely benefit the company, the owners, and the employees.
Comment on the Show by Sending Mark a Text Message.What happens when the biggest workplace experiment in modern history becomes admissible evidence? Five years after COVID reshaped how we work, we take a clear-eyed look at remote work's legacy—what it proved, who it protected, and why some employers are trying to forget the results. We trace the arc from lifeline to legal battleground, exposing how rigid return-to-office policies are pushing out the very people who kept companies alive: disabled workers, pregnant employees, caregivers, and older staff who thrived with reasonable flexibility.We dig into the details behind the headlines, from constructive discharge tactics and moving performance goalposts to the tech-driven surveillance that quietly captured mountains of unpaid labor. Along the way, we unpack real cases, including a federal jury award tied to remote feasibility and disability rights, and a new Manhattan complaint alleging revoked flexibility and weaponized metrics. The throughline is simple: when the work got done from home—consistently and measurably—that record matters. Blanket policies that ignore it aren't just shortsighted; they carry legal risk.Beyond the courtrooms, we talk about what ethical, effective design looks like now. Location should map to duties and outcomes, not vibes or nostalgia. Feasibility analyses, transparent criteria, and outcome-based metrics create clarity for teams while honoring the realities of health, parenting, and aging. Remote work is not a luxury for many; it is the difference between employment and exit, stability and crisis. If the experiment proved anything, it is that millions delivered under extraordinary strain—and that proof deserves respect.If this conversation resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs the receipts, and leave a rating or review so more people can find it.

Caledonia mining CEO Mark Learmonth joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company's decision to formally proceed with the development of the Bilboes gold project in Zimbabwe, following the completion of a comprehensive feasibility study. The long-awaited study confirmed the project's compelling economics and positioned Bilboes as one of the most significant future gold developments in the region. Learmonth highlighted that the project delivers an NPV of more than $580 million at an 8% discount rate, based on a gold price assumption of $2,548 per ounce. The internal rate of return exceeds 32%, supported by a competitive all-in sustaining cost of $1,061 per ounce. “That clearly means that it's a very high-margin operation with a very quick payback period,” Learmonth told Proactive. The feasibility study recommends developing Bilboes as a single-phase, large-scale operation, with peak capital expenditure estimated at $484 million, plus roughly $100 million in financing-related costs. According to Learmonth, the single-phase plan generates superior returns compared to a phased development approach, benefiting from economies of scale and stronger overall project metrics. Caledonia expects to fund the build primarily through a combination of non-recourse senior debt and internal equity from Blanket Mine, which is set to support the financing through a newly arranged three-year gold hedge at a minimum strike price of $3,500 per ounce. This hedge is anticipated to generate approximately $200 million in cash flow to underpin project construction. Looking ahead, Learmonth outlined a timeline that sees construction beginning in the second half of 2026, with first gold production targeted for late 2028, contingent on finalising debt agreements. The company also plans to deliver further exploration updates from Blanket and Motapa in early 2026, adding additional potential growth catalysts. Beyond its economic strength, Bilboes represents a major milestone for Zimbabwe's mining sector. Learmonth described it as a “marquee project” with the potential to meaningfully boost national gold production, attract new investment, and reinforce the country's profile as a destination for world-class gold development. #proactiveinvestors #aim #cmcl #nyseamerican #cmcl #caledoniamining #GoldInvesting #MiningStocks #ZimbabweMining #BilboesProject #GoldProduction #FeasibilityStudy #MiningDevelopment #JuniorMining #MiningEconomics #GoldPrice #ResourceInvestment
Nathan dives into the most crucial skill for success in residential development: mastering feasibility. He stresses that running feasibility isn't about expense, but time investment, and that poorly run feasibility studies are the biggest pressure builder and cause of project failure.Learn why feasibility is both an art and a science and how it encompasses not just the financial numbers, but also buildability, compliance, and factoring in all project time frames (approvals, build, and sales). Nathan strongly advises aspiring developers to become laser-focused specialists in a small, proven area and to continually "flex that feasibility muscle" by testing both successful and unsuccessful sites. By doing the hard reps behind the scenes, you gain the insider knowledge to make calculated risks and secure the best deals.Topics: ✅ Feasibility: Art and Science ✅ Project Failure Point ✅ Avoid Emotional Investing ✅ Become a Laser Specialist ✅ The Feasibility Muscle ✅ Time Frames are KeyConnect with Nathan Battishall: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nathanbattishall/Website: https://duplexbuildingdesign.com/ Hosted on Acast.

In deze derde aflevering van onze serie over de Novum innovatiemethode duiken Jeroen en Marijn in fase 3: Experimenteren. Deze fase wordt vaak beschouwd als de belangrijkste stap in het hele innovatieproces, omdat je hier voor het eerst echt ontdekt of je op de juiste weg zit. Leer hoe je ideeën niet alleen bedenkt en uitwerkt, maar vooral hoe je test of ze daadwerkelijk het probleem oplossen dat je eerder hebt geïdentificeerd.Marijn deelt praktische inzichten over het testen van drie kernvragen: Is je oplossing wenselijk voor de gebruiker? Is het technisch en organisatorisch mogelijk? En heeft het genoeg effect om de investering waard te zijn? Daarnaast bespreken we het gevaar van 'non-problemen' - situaties waarbij een gebruiker denkt een probleem te hebben, maar de oplossing uiteindelijk minimale waarde oplevert. Met concrete voorbeelden uit de praktijk, zoals een zoekmachine-experiment, leer je hoe je experimenten structureert en wanneer je moet kiezen tussen doorgang (persevere), herontwerp (pivot) of stoppen (kill).Key Takeaways:✓ Waarom experimenteren de cruciale fase is in innovatieprojecten✓ De drie kernvragen: wenselijk, mogelijk, en effectvol✓ Het verschil tussen echte problemen en non-problemen✓ Hoe je experimenten structureert met duidelijke aannames en succescriteria✓ Wanneer je moet stoppen met experimenteren en door moet naar implementatie✓ Praktisch voorbeeld: A/B testing van zoekmachines bij een overheidsorganisatie✓ Tools: Experiment Canvas en Interview-analyse templatesResources vermeld in deze aflevering:Novum Innovatiemethode documentatie (www.svb.nl/innovatie)Experiment Canvas templateInterview-analyse Excel template (verkrijgbaar via innovatie@svb.nl)Viability, Feasibility, Desirability framework

Karim Harbott: From Requirements Documents to Customer Obsession—Redefining the PO Role Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. The Great Product Owner: Strategic, Customer-Obsessed, and Vision-Driven "The PO role in the team is strategic. These POs focus on the customer, outcomes, and strategy. They're customer-obsessed and focus on the purpose and the why of the product." - Karim Harbott Karim believes the industry fundamentally misunderstands what a Product Owner should be. The great Product Owners he's seen are strategic thinkers who are obsessed with the customer. They don't just manage a backlog—they paint a vision for the product and help the entire team become customer-obsessed alongside them. These POs focus relentlessly on outcomes rather than outputs, asking "why are we building this?" before diving into "what should we build?" They understand the purpose of the product and communicate it compellingly. Karim references Amazon's "working backwards" approach, where Product Owners start with the customer experience they want to create and work backwards to figure out what needs to be built. Great POs also embrace the framework of Desirability (what customers want), Viability (what makes business sense), Feasibility (what's technically possible), and Usability (what's easy to use). While the PO owns desirability and viability, they collaborate closely with designers on usability and technical teams on feasibility. This is critical: software is a team sport, and great POs recognize that multiple roles share responsibility for delivery. Like David Marquet teaches, they empower the team to own decisions rather than dictating every detail. The result? Teams that understand the "why" and can innovate toward it autonomously. Self-reflection Question: Does your Product Owner paint a compelling vision that inspires the team, or do they primarily manage a list of tasks? The Bad Product Owner: The User Story Writer "The user story writer PO thinks it's their job to write full, long requirements documents, put it in JIRA, and assign it to the team. This is far away from what the PO role should be." - Karim Harbott The anti-pattern Karim sees most often is the "User Story Writer" Product Owner. These POs believe their job is to write detailed requirements documents, load them into JIRA, and assign them to the team. It's essentially waterfall disguised as Agile—treating user stories like mini-specifications rather than conversation starters. This approach completely misses the collaborative nature of product development. Instead of engaging the team in understanding customer needs and co-creating solutions, these POs hand down fully-formed requirements and expect the team to execute without question. The problem is that this removes the team's ownership and creativity. When POs act as the sole source of product knowledge, they become bottlenecks. The team can't make smart tradeoffs or innovate because they don't understand the underlying customer problems or business context. Using the Desirability-Viability-Feasibility-Usability framework, bad POs try to own all four dimensions themselves instead of recognizing that designers, developers, and other roles bring essential perspectives. The result is disengaged teams, slow delivery, and products that miss the mark because they were built to specifications rather than shaped by collaborative discovery. Software is a team sport—but the User Story Writer PO forgets to put the team on the field. Self-reflection Question: Is your Product Owner engaging the team in collaborative discovery, or just handing down requirements to be implemented? [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]
Description Join host and HRS Digital Education Committee Chair Michael S. Lloyd, MD, FHRS and his guests Miguel A. Leal, MD, FHRS, and Jason T. Jacobson, MD, FHRS, live at HRX 2025. In this prospective series of 12 device-naïve patients (median LVEF ~30%), the authors attempted permanent implantation of a single-coil DF-4 ICD lead into the left bundle branch area (LBBA). They achieved successful implantation with adequate sensing and pacing in 75% of patients, and during short-term follow-up the lead and RV parameters remained stable; minor complications occurred in ~25% of patients (lead micro-dislodgment and septal perforations). The authors conclude that LBBA ICD lead implantation is feasible with current tools and acceptable short-term outcomes, but note the higher-than-expected minor complication rate and emphasize the need for dedicated toolkits, higher operator volume, and a procedural learning curve. Learning Objectives Describe the procedural feasibility, safety considerations, and short-term outcomes associated with left bundle branch area (LBBA) DF-4 defibrillator lead implantation. Identify key technical caveats and patient selection factors relevant to adopting this emerging pacing strategy in clinical practice.

Amanda and Ash interview Charlie Kao. Charlie shares how growing up as “free labor” on his dad's properties eventually led him back into commercial real estate, where he's now best known for self-storage. He explains why he's cautious on self-storage at a national level, how overbuilding and new alternatives are changing demand, and why he's leaning into highly localized markets where he has an unfair advantage. Charlie also walks through innovative ways he's turning basic storage into a true service business, from accepting and placing medical shipments to offering boat/RV add-ons, all while using feasibility studies and data-driven pricing to stay ahead of the competition.

In today's episode, we're joined by Jeff Court, CEO of Tungsten West, the company redeveloping the Hemerdon tungsten project in Devon, UK Jeff's worked on mining projects all over the world, and we'll be talking about his journey into leadership, why tungsten is such a critical mineral, and what it takes to bring a historic mine back into production. We'll also cover the company's new feasibility study, financing challenges, and what the EU Critical Raw Materials Act means for Hemerdon. KEY TAKEAWAYS Tungsten is classified as a critical mineral due to its unique properties, such as high density and tensile strength, making it essential in various industries, including mining, construction, transportation, and defence. Tungsten West requires approximately $93 million to restart production at the Hemerdon project, with funding expected to come from a combination of debt and equity. The feasibility study indicates a strong economic outlook, with a potential internal rate of return (IRR) of around 48%. The project incorporates modern mining practices focused on sustainability, including noise reduction measures and community engagement to ensure compliance with environmental standards and to maintain good relations with local residents. The Hemerdon project has been designated as a strategic project under the EU Critical Raw Materials Act, which enhances its profile and may facilitate access to government-backed funding BEST MOMENTS "Tungsten's not gold, it's not iron ore, it's a very interesting specialty metal space that also has a lot of off-take supply requirements around it too."

Modern robotic picking is moving beyond neat rows and perfect lighting conditions. In this Automate 2025 conversation, Vlad and Dave sit down with Kevin Wu from Siemens to explore how Simatic Robot Pick AI Pro is tackling the messy reality of warehouses and factories. They discuss how the new edge architecture with the Simatic IPC BX 59 A and an NVIDIA GPU lifts pick rates to well over one thousand picks per hour, why multiple suction patterns matter for stability on large or flexible items, how camera agnostic support opens the door to new vision hardware, and why transparent objects are no longer a limitation in many applications.This episode also dives into digital thread and digital twin workflows using Siemens Process Simulate. These tools allow teams to test new products and layouts virtually before any hardware changes are made, helping reduce commissioning risk and shorten the path to production. The discussion highlights an on-booth demonstration that combines a robot with a secondary camera and a vision language model to identify products and read packaging details such as expiration dates. It is a clear example of how multimodal AI can complement traditional industrial vision systems.A major theme throughout this conversation is resilience. In real operations, products are rarely placed perfectly. Pallets shift, orientations vary, and lighting changes throughout the day. Traditional rules-based vision systems often struggle when small variances accumulate. Kevin explains how model-free 3D picking localizes unknown objects in clutter, selects stable suction patterns based on measured dimensions, and keeps production moving without forcing operators to maintain perfect alignment.For manufacturers in consumer packaged goods and medical devices, this is a meaningful advancement. It enables greater product variety and frequent SKU changes while maintaining engineering control. The difference is that the picking logic adapts to what the system sees rather than expecting the environment to remain static.We also talk about practical evaluation and proof of concept. Siemens runs application testing at its Berkeley, California lab where customers can send sample parts for quick feasibility checks. A short video of their parts being picked can provide the confidence needed to move forward with a pilot project while minimizing cost and risk. For quality inspection and defect detection, Siemens also offers an Inspector station capable of learning from as few as twenty samples to identify defects in real time.The discussion closes by looking at the future of digital manufacturing. Digital thread tools make it possible to simulate robots from multiple brands, test new configurations, and evaluate throughput virtually. Combined with edge AI and NVIDIA vision language technology, this creates faster experimentation cycles, improved reliability, and measurable gains in uptime and throughput.Kevin's key message is clear. Manufacturers do not need to replace existing automation to explore the benefits of AI. Start with one process, validate performance, and build from there.Timestamps 00:00 Welcome and why real-world picking matters 00:40 Introduction to Pick AI Pro and new throughput capabilities 01:30 Multi suction patterns for stable handling of large items 02:20 Camera agnostic approach and transparent object handling 03:30 Selecting components for high-temperature environments 04:15 Use cases in consumer packaged goods and medical applications 06:45 Digital twin and digital thread with Siemens Process Simulate 08:30 Feasibility testing and customer demos at the Siemens lab 10:30 Vision language model for product identification and labeling 12:10 Evaluating with real parts and rapid testing cycles 14:20 Siemens Inspector for defect detection and visual inspection 15:40 Key takeaways and future outlookReferences and Resources Mentioned Siemens Simatic Robot Pick AI Overview https://www.siemens.com/global/en/products/automation/topic-areas/tia/future-topics/simatic-robotics-ai.htmlSiemens Press Release on Simatic Robot Pick AI Pro https://press.siemens.com/global/en/pressrelease/siemens-presents-future-intralogistics-simatic-robot-pick-ai-pro-enables-machineSiemens Simatic IPC BX 59 A Industrial Edge Device with NVIDIA GPU https://www.automationworld.com/products/data/product/55287446/siemens-ag-siemens-simatic-ipc-bx-59a-industrial-edge-deviceSiemens IPC BX 59 A Operating Instructions https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/attachments/109972660/ipcbx56a_and_ipcbx59a_operating_instructions_enUS_en-US.pdfUniversal Robots Example with Simatic Robot Pick AI https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/document/109822788/simatic-robot-pick-ai-with-universal-robots-ur5Zivid Transparent Object Imaging Information https://www.zivid.com/zivid-omni-engine-transparency https://blog.zivid.com/zivid-omni-engineSiemens Digital Thread Overview and Tecnomatix Process Simulate https://www.sw.siemens.com/en-US/digital-thread/ https://plm.sw.siemens.com/en-US/tecnomatix/NVIDIA Vision Language Model Resources https://docs.nvidia.com/nim/vision-language-models/latest/introduction.html https://developer.nvidia.com/blog/vision-language-model-prompt-engineering-guide-for-image-and-video-understanding/Hosts Vlad Romanov is an electrical engineer and manufacturing consultant who leads Joltek and co-hosts the Manufacturing Hub Podcast.

In this KE Report Daily Editorial, we're joined by Brien Lundin, Editor of Gold Newsletter and host of the New Orleans Investment Conference (Nov. 2–5), to discuss the powerful rally across precious metals and the historic wave of financings sweeping through the junior mining sector. Key Discussion Highlights: Unprecedented capital inflows: Gold nearing $4,300/oz and silver topping $53/oz have triggered a flood of financings - many without warrants, rapidly upsized, and often the largest in company histories. Institutional money returns: Deep-pocketed generalist and hedge fund investors are pouring in, marking a seismic shift for the mining industry. What companies will do with the cash: With exploration budgets surging, Brien expects both inefficiency and discovery - some waste, but also new mines and mid-tier producers emerging. Valuation catch-up coming: Feasibility studies using $2,000–$2,500 gold are now badly outdated; developers could see massive re-ratings as markets recalibrate to current prices. Exploration strategy: How to approach pre-discovery and early-stage drill stories, and why management quality, technical depth, and early hints still matter most in a hot market. Stocks mentioned: Aftermath Silver (AAG.V / AAGFF), Blackrock Silver (BRC.V / BKRRF), Delta Resources (DLTA.V), Contango Ore (CTGO), Collective Mining (CNL.TO), Prospector Metals (PPP.V).

Feasibility of a Smartphone App with Mindfulness Training for Adolescent Smoking Cessation: Craving to Quit (C2Q)-TeenIn this episode, Dr. Jud highlights a groundbreaking pilot study that examines the feasibility of a mindfulness-based smoking cessation app tailored for teenagers. Based on the paper Feasibility of a Smartphone App with Mindfulness Training for Adolescent Smoking Cessation: Craving to Quit (C2Q)-Teen by Lori Pbert et al., the episode delves into how mindfulness helps teens recognize and manage cravings. Despite similar abstinence rates across the app, a non-mindfulness app, and written materials, the Craving to Quit app stood out for reducing cigarette consumption in adolescents who continued to smoke. Dr. Jud explores the implications of these findings and the potential of app-based mindfulness interventions to provide accessible and impactful smoking cessation tools for adolescents.Reference:Pbert, L., Druker, S., Crawford, S., Frisard, C., Trivedi, M., Osganian, S.

Could a simple supplement that bodybuilders use to build muscle actually help fight Alzheimer's disease? Dr. Matthew Taylor from the University of Kansas reveals surprising results from her groundbreaking clinical trial testing high-dose creatine in Alzheimer's patientsIn this episode, Dr. Matthew Taylor discusses his pioneering research on creatine supplementation for Alzheimer's disease, addressing a critical gap in brain energy metabolism that worsens with aging and becomes severely impaired in dementia. His 8-week clinical trial gave 20 Alzheimer's patients 20 grams of creatine daily - a bodybuilder's loading dose - and found remarkable improvements in memory, executive function, and even unexpected gains in reading comprehension. Using advanced MRI spectroscopy, his team confirmed that creatine actually reaches the brain, increasing levels by 11%. Beyond cognitive benefits, participants also showed significant improvements in hand grip strength and muscle mass. Dr. Taylor explains how brain energy metabolism creates a vicious cycle in Alzheimer's, explores whether creatine could prevent dementia in healthy aging, and reveals his plans for combining creatine with ketogenic diet approaches. This conversation offers hope for a simple, accessible intervention that could help millions facing cognitive decline.
Creatine is everywhere right now. While the supplement has been popular for years among gym rats, the benefits of taking creatine now far surpass gaining muscle strength—and especially for women. What are those benefits? How much creatine should you be taking? When should you take it? And will it make you gain weight? We answer all of these questions in today's episode. Some of the studies mentioned in the episode: Single dose creatine improves cognitive performance and induces changes in cerebral high energy phosphates during sleep deprivation Creatine monohydrate pilot in Alzheimer's: Feasibility, brain creatine, and cognition Creatine Supplementation Combined with Exercise in the Prevention of Type 2 Diabetes: Effects on Insulin Resistance and Sarcopenia Creatine Supplementation in Women's Health: A Lifespan Perspective Thank you for listening to The Happy Eating Podcast.

Darshan H. Brahmbhatt, Podcast Editor of JACC: Advances, discusses a recently published original research paper on Ideal Navitor Implant Depth for Redo-TAVR Feasibility and Coronary Access: A CT Simulation Study.
Interview with Joseph Ovsenek, President & CEO of P2 Gold Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/p2-gold-inc-tsxvpgld-35moz-project-advances-on-metallurgical-breakthrough-7826Recording date: 11th September 2025P2 Gold presents one of the most compelling value propositions in the current gold mining sector, offering investors exposure to a high-quality Nevada development project with exceptional economics and experienced management execution capabilities. The company's Gabbs project demonstrates robust financial metrics that appear significantly disconnected from its current market valuation, creating a substantial opportunity for value recognition and appreciation.The project's preliminary assessment reveals impressive economics with a 62% internal rate of return and $700 million net present value at a 10% discount rate when current metal prices are applied. These figures stand in stark contrast to P2 Gold's market capitalization of just $25 million, suggesting a potential 28-fold upside if the market recognizes the project's intrinsic value. The 3.5 million ounce gold equivalent resource base provides substantial scale, while the Nevada location offers regulatory advantages and established mining infrastructure that reduce development risks.Recent metallurgical breakthroughs represent a significant catalyst for enhanced project economics and accelerated development timelines. Phase 3 metallurgical results demonstrated remarkable improvements, with gold recovery rates increasing from 78% to 85% and copper recovery jumping from 54% to 67%. Perhaps more importantly, extraction kinetics improved dramatically, with 98% of gold now recoverable in 58 days compared to the previous 145-day timeline. This improvement could reduce capital expenditure requirements and project footprint size when advancing to feasibility study.Management credibility provides crucial execution confidence for investors evaluating development-stage mining opportunities. CEO Joseph Ovsenek and Chief Exploration Officer Ken McNaughton previously collaborated at Pretium Resources, successfully advancing the Bruce Jack project from discovery to production in under eight years. Their proven track record demonstrates capability in navigating complex development processes including resource expansion, permitting, financing, and construction management. The team's philosophy of setting aggressive targets and maintaining development momentum has translated into P2 Gold's ambitious 2028 production timeline.The company's strategic approach to development acceleration includes skipping pre-feasibility study and advancing directly to feasibility based on extensive historical data and the project's straightforward heap leach processing characteristics. This decision could compress typical development timelines while leveraging Nevada's established regulatory framework and heap leach infrastructure. The addition of SART plant technology for gold and copper oxide recovery represents the primary technical innovation required, with numerous similar facilities already operating successfully.Near-term catalysts provide multiple opportunities for market recognition and potential re-rating over the next 12 months. Expansion and infill drilling beginning in mid-to-late October should generate results over six months, potentially expanding the resource base and providing additional geological confidence. Key regulatory milestones including water permitting and mining plan of operation filing within four to five months will demonstrate tangible progress toward production.P2 Gold's current financing round targeting C$6 million with potential expansion based on strong investor interest demonstrates improving market sentiment and capital access. The relatively modest funding requirements reflect the project's efficient development pathway and extensive historical database, allowing the company to maintain aggressive advancement while preserving shareholder dilution.At current gold prices exceeding $3,600 per ounce, P2 Gold offers compelling leverage to continued metal price appreciation while providing downside protection through robust project economics and experienced management execution capabilities.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.comSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In this episode of THE MENTORS RADIO, Host Tom Loarie talks with Mai Nguyen, PhD, the remarkable 36-year-old neuroscientist who is the co-founder and CEO of OptoCeutics and the inventor of EVY LIGHT®, a breakthrough light-based therapy aimed at slowing the progression of Alzheimer's and other memory disorders. Her journey is anything but ordinary. Born in Vietnam, raised in California as the youngest of nine children in a struggling family, she spent her childhood at a local Flea Market and then went on to earn a PhD in neuroscience. But it was a "chance" conversation with a Danish professor that changed her life, and quite likely the lives of millions who will benefit from her decision. In this episode, you'll explore the science behind Dr. Mai Nguyen's light therapy innovation, her deeply personal and unlikely entrepreneurial journey and the powerful values that have guided her. This is a conversation about courage, healing and what it means to be a leader with heart and grit.

Political theorist Annabel Brett of Cambridge University explores how the concept of “moral possibility” shapes law, politics, and public obligation. She explains that laws must be realistic for people to follow—what is morally possible varies by individual, culture, time, and circumstance. Drawing on early modern Catholic legal theory, Brett discusses how extreme demands (like enduring war or plague) may justify higher expectations, but only temporarily. She examines how colonial Spanish officials misused this framework to justify forced labor in Peru, wrongly claiming it aligned with indigenous customs. Brett contrasts this with more democratic approaches to law, like Domingo de Soto's defense of beggars' rights, which take individuals' real conditions seriously. Ultimately, she shows how moral possibility is deeply tied to time, virtue, and justice. Commentary is provided by David Dyzenhaus of the University of Toronto.

Creatine for Alzheimer's — let's separate the hype from the hope. A new study has caused a stir in June 2025, but lead researcher Matthew K. Taylor told us: “ I don't think I can recommend it to a patient that this is going to ultimately have some sort of cognitive influence.” We speak to Dr. Taylor and Dr. Russell Swerdlow in this episode, discussing: • Role of creatine in your brain, and why it matters for energy metabolism • What the 2025 study found (and why it wasn't designed to prove effectiveness) • How scientific nuance gets lost in supplement hype • Why even promising early data must be handled with care • The vital difference between hype and hope Dr. Russell Swerdlow, MD is Director of the University of Kansas Alzheimer's Disease Research Center.
