Near-Infrared Light Therapy & EMF Shielding with SaunaSpace Founder Brian Richards Your mitochondria are starving for a nutrient you've probably never tracked, and it's not a vitamin or a macro. This episode reveals how a forgotten 1910 therapy uses light to physically restructure water inside your cells, unlocking a mechanism for healing, detox, and mitochondria repair that most of biohacking has completely overlooked. Go to https://sauna.space/ and use code ‘Dave' for a 15% discount! Host Dave Asprey sits down with Brian Richards, founder of SaunaSpace and a leading voice in incandescent light therapy and infrared sauna engineering. With a background in chemistry and organic synthesis, Brian spent over a decade building a science-backed alternative to LED-based light therapy rooted in full-spectrum incandescent light and deep radiant heat. After healing his own insomnia, adrenal fatigue, and brain fog through light and heat exposure, he developed the FireLight Spectrum, a technology engineered to restore what modern lighting strips away. Dave and Brian trace incandescent light therapy back to Dr. John Harvey Kellogg's 1910 book on light therapeutics, and explain why the same institutional forces that suppressed chiropractic care and natural medicine buried this practice for over a century. They break down how near-infrared light penetrates the body to charge water into a more bioavailable state, boost glutathione and melatonin production, and repolarize cellular voltage for better metabolism and longevity. The conversation also covers why blue light from LEDs devastates hormones, testosterone, and fertility, how EMF exposure silently drains human performance, and why grounding and Faraday shielding matter more than most supplements on the market. You'll Learn: Why near-infrared light functions as an essential nutrient your body cannot make without it How light physically restructures water to improve mitochondria function and cellular energy The suppressed history of Dr. Kellogg's incandescent light therapy and why it disappeared How blue light exposure crashes testosterone and disrupts fertility and hormone regulation Why EMF shielding and grounding are critical, overlooked tools for longevity and recovery How to use infrared light like a daily supplement instead of an occasional treatment Why carnivore-adjacent, nutrient-dense eating pairs naturally with light and heat therapy Thank you to our sponsors! - ELITE Performance Coaching | If you'd like to discover where you may be addicted to struggle, allergic to success, and what may be standing between you and your next breakthrough, visit FastestChange.com - Longevity Farms | Go to getlongevityfarms.shop.

Original Air Date: June 2025 Episode Number: 463Episode SummaryThis week on Home In Progress, Dan tells the story of Earl Young -- a self-taught architect from Charlevoix, Michigan who never finished his degree, never drew a blueprint, and never really cared what the architecture establishment thought of him. What he left behind are some of the most unusual homes in the Midwest: curved stone walls, swooping roofs, fireplaces that feel like the center of the universe, and boulders he spent decades hauling out of Lake Michigan. Dan covers the full story -- where Young came from, how he worked, and what eventually happened to the neighborhood he built. Then he takes six design lessons from Young's approach and applies them to homes most of us actually live in.In This Episode[00:00] -- Opening: Rain, Roofs, and a Dead Sprinkler Pump[01:40] -- Charlevoix, Michigan[02:34] -- The Mushroom Houses[05:15] -- Earl Young: Origins[09:05] -- Breaking With the Rules[13:41] -- Vision and Inspirations[16:39] -- No Blueprints[19:31] -- The Boulder Problem[24:24] -- The Weathervane Restaurant and the 9-Ton Boulder[26:26] -- Fireplace as the Heart of the House[28:08] -- Legacy[29:22] -- How to Visit[32:29] -- Six Design Lessons from Earl YoungOpening: Rain, Roofs, and a Dead Sprinkler Pump [00:00]Dan opens with the classic split-brain problem of being a homeowner in summer. He's relieved that rain is coming -- the yard needs it. He is not relieved that rain is coming -- the roof has been suspicious lately. Then, one more thing: the sprinkler pump died. Standard summer. He moves on quickly.Charlevoix, Michigan [01:40]Before getting to the houses, Dan sets the scene. Charlevoix sits on a narrow isthmus between Lake Michigan and Lake Charlevoix. It's a resort town -- the kind of place people drive through and immediately start calculating whether they could afford to move there. It's also the kind of place that, if you grew up on its beaches and walked them long enough as a kid, could do something permanent to the way you see the natural world.The Mushroom Houses [02:34]Charlevoix has a neighborhood most people don't know about unless someone tips them off. The houses there don't look like anything else. Curved stone walls. Rooflines that swoop down low to the ground. Windows tucked into stone like they were always meant to be there. The whole feel of the place is fairy-tale -- which is why people have been calling them hobbit houses, gnome houses, and Flintstone houses for decades.They have an official nickname too: the Mushroom Houses. Named for the way the rooflines spread outward from the walls, sort of like a cap on a stem. Once you know that, you can't unsee it.They were all built by the same man. One man, working from dirt sketches and intuition, over most of his adult life.Earl Young: Origins [05:15]Earl Young was born in 1889 in Mancelona, Michigan. He moved to Charlevoix with his family around age 11. His parents divorced -- which wasn't common then -- and Young spent a lot of time on his own, walking the beaches around town. He wasn't doing anything in particular. He was just out there, picking up rocks, watching water, paying attention to the way the land looked.He fell in love with stones. Big ones specifically. The kind of boulders that Lake Michigan just deposits on the shore like it has nowhere else to put them. Most people walk around them. Young was already thinking about what he could do with them.Breaking With the Rules [09:05]Young went to the University of Michigan to study architecture. He lasted about a year. The curriculum was heavy on classical styles -- Victorian, Greek revival, Roman influence -- and Young had no patience for it. He didn't come to school to copy old European buildings. He went home to Charlevoix.For a while he sold insurance and real estate. He wasn't building yet. But he was watching. He kept picking up rocks.He eventually started building. No firm, no staff, no architecture license. Just an eye for stone, an instinct for how a building should sit on a piece of land, and a willingness to take as long as it took to do things the way he wanted them done.Vision and Inspirations [13:41]Dan identifies three things that shaped the way Young approached his work.The first was Frank Lloyd Wright's philosophy -- not Wright's specific style, but the underlying idea that a building should belong to its site. It shouldn't be dropped onto a lot. It should feel like it grew there. Young took that idea and ran with it in his own direction.The second was his rejection of academic architecture. Everything he'd been asked to learn and repeat in school was exactly what he didn't want to do. The rebellion wasn't just aesthetic -- it was personal.The third was the stones. Young's whole sensibility came from what Lake Michigan left on the shore. The materials weren't a choice he made at a building supply store. They were the starting point for everything else.No Blueprints [16:39]Young did not draw blueprints. When he had an idea for a house, he went outside and drew his plan in the dirt with a stick. He'd sketch the layout right there on the ground, work it out, make adjustments, and that was the plan.His wife Irene was an art teacher. At some point she started translating his dirt sketches and descriptions into actual drawings -- not formal blueprints, but enough that a builder could follow them. The designs came from him. She put them on paper. They worked like that for years.The Boulder Problem [19:31]Young didn't just use the rocks he could find lying around. He hunted for specific ones. When he found a boulder he wanted, he'd sometimes bury it in the woods to keep it safe until he needed it. Or he'd sink it in Lake Michigan and come back for it later.Dan compares this to hiding GI Joes as a kid -- the careful stashing of things you intend to retrieve. Except the things Young was hiding weighed several tons.When it was time to retrieve a boulder, he'd bring in teams of workhorses. No machinery, no cranes in the early years. Just horses, ropes, and however many men it took to move something that heavy across however much ground stood between the boulder and the house.The Weathervane Restaurant and the 9-Ton Boulder [24:24]The clearest example of how far Young would go for the right stone is the Weathervane Restaurant in Charlevoix. He built it. And for that building, he had been saving a single boulder -- nine tons -- for 26 years.When they finally set it in place, the floor sank. The supports weren't adequate for a 9-ton rock sitting on them indefinitely. They had to redo the foundation underneath it before they could move on.Young didn't reconsider the rock. He redid the floor.The Weathervane is still there. The boulder is still there too.Fireplace as the Heart of the House [26:26]Young treated the fireplace as the center of everything. Not a feature of the house -- the heart of it. In a lot of cases the fireplace was the first thing he designed, and the rest of the floor plan grew outward from there.The fireplaces in his houses are big and boulder-built, and they feel exactly as permanent as they look. They're not decorative. They're structural in the emotional sense of that word -- the thing the rest of the room organizes itself around.Legacy [28:08]Young built somewhere around 26 to 28 homes and three or four commercial buildings over his career. His last major project was the Castle House, which he worked on from 1970 to 1973. By then he was legally blind. He designed parts of it by touch -- running his hands over stone and timber to make decisions he couldn't make with his eyes anymore.He died in 1975. His last act, reportedly, was directing the placement of a boulder at the entrance to his neighborhood. Not a plaque, not a sign. A rock. In the right spot.How to Visit [29:22]The homes are private property. You can drive through the neighborhood and see them from the street -- people do that all the time and it's welcome. Just don't go up to the windows. They're people's houses.The Weathervane Restaurant is open to the public. You can eat there, walk around, and see the 9-ton boulder up close. Dan recommends it. Website: weathervanerestaurant.com.Earl Young's personal home is available to rent on Airbnb. If you want to actually sleep in one of the houses, that's how you do it.Six Design Lessons from Earl Young [32:29]Dan spends the back half of the episode pulling practical design lessons out of Young's approach. Not abstract principles -- specific things a regular homeowner can actually do.1. Snag What Speaks to You [32:29]Dan tells a story about a Cleopatra bust he found years ago. Bought it without knowing what he'd do with it. Then built a whole corner of a room around it -- brass candlesticks, an Art Nouveau painting of Cleopatra by a Michigan artist, pieces that fit the theme. The room came from the object, not the other way around.Young did the same thing with rocks. He found something he loved, and let that be the starting point. Most people wait until they have a plan before they start collecting anything. Young's lesson -- and Dan's -- is that sometimes the piece you can't explain wanting is the piece that tells you what to...

Walter Sterling dives into the strange mystery of old sealed-up fireplaces, questioning whether they were once part of a forgotten free-energy system tied to copper pipes, rooftop antennas, and ether power before oil and gas interests took over. Walter also takes calls from the Midnight Misfits on UFO files, alien bodies, men in black, Area 51, and why the government's recent acknowledgment of UFO records may be bigger than the files themselves. Plus, he sounds off on elite power, work-from-home crackdowns, conspiracy culture, missing scientists, anti-gravity research, and the technologies that may have been buried before they could change the world.

Could your fireplace affect the sale of your home?This week on the Kern County Real Estate Review, Laurie McCarty is joined by Cassandra Melching, Outreach Representative with the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District, to talk about Rule 4901 and what Bakersfield homeowners need to know about wood-burning fireplaces, wood-burning stoves, and compliance when selling a residential property.Laurie also breaks down a new report showing Bakersfield homes are 18% more affordable than the statewide average and what that means for local buyers, sellers, and homeowners watching the market.In this episode, we're talking about what makes a wood-burning device non-compliant, what options homeowners have, how the change-out incentive program may help with costs, and why it's better to know about these requirements before you're already in escrow.If you own a home in Bakersfield or Kern County, are thinking about selling, or just want to stay informed about local real estate issues that could affect your property, this is an episode you'll want to hear.Listen to the Kern County Real Estate Review with Laurie McCarty, your trusted source for Bakersfield real estate, Kern County housing news, and practical guidance for local homeowners.

In this throwback episode of the Uploft Interior Design Podcast, I talk about my long-standing love of fireplaces and how they serve as a focal point in any home, then dive into answering a listener's question about how to fix a cluttered, overly brown fireplace mantel by emphasizing contrast in color, shape, and styling. I walk through what's not working—too many matching wood tones, symmetrical groupings, and unnecessary items—and explain how I'd redesign it to feel more intentional and visually interesting. After that, I shift into my thoughts on HGTV's Castle Impossible, a show I both enjoy and critique, where I follow a couple renovating a massive French chateau; I share my skepticism about their design choices, timelines, and practicality while also reflecting on my own experiences in France and with renovations. Overall, I balance practical design advice with candid, sometimes humorous commentary on the show and the realities of ambitious home projects.

At KBIS 2026, Hearth & Home Technologies reveals how fireplaces are evolving from overlooked amenities into high-value, design-forward features that enhance both homes and builder offerings. We explore the emotional, aesthetic, and technological dimensions of modern fireplaces, from indoor-outdoor integration to bespoke U-shaped configurations. Designers, architects, and builders alike share insights on leveraging fireplaces for resale value, client engagement, and standout home experiences. Mike Swanson – Director, Segment Marketing | Hearth & Home Technologies Fireplaces are no longer just a cozy addition—they are strategic assets in home design, builder differentiation, and lifestyle storytelling. Consumer Demand & Builder Value Fireplaces rank high on buyer wish lists; 77% of homebuyers desire a fireplace. Adding a fireplace can increase home value by 10%, comparable to adding a garage. Fireplaces differentiate homes and engage buyers beyond square footage, integrating lifestyle and personality into living spaces. Design & Technology Integration Indoor and outdoor placement flexibility, including direct vent and electric fireplaces. Heat management technology enabling safe TV placement above fireplaces. Smart home integration, LED flame effects, and Wi-Fi connectivity. Design-forward considerations: feature walls, proportion, architectural integration, and bespoke finishes. Custom & Premium Solutions U-shaped, L-shaped, and multi-sided fireplaces offer signature focal points. Customization options include firebox décor, decorative panels, and the Enlight Collection's fireproof image panels. Aligning fireplace sizing with flat-panel TVs and overall home layout for maximum impact. Builder & Designer Partnerships Education and engagement through Pro Advantage series, continuing education (AIA, IDEC), and builder programs. National distribution network ensures on-time delivery and installation support. Strategies for integrating fireplaces into model homes, luxury projects, and production homes across price points. Collaboration between architects, designers, and builders to maximize aesthetic, functional, and financial value. Innovation & Future Outlook New electric and digital flame technologies (e.g., Illusion Edge, Illusion Heritage). Product refreshes every three years to maintain style-forward, timeless appeal. Continuing to expand placement possibilities and premium customization for design-forward homes. At KBIS 2026 in Orlando, Hearth & Home Technologies showcased how the modern fireplace is evolving from a standard home feature into a high-value, design-forward element that serves builders, designers, and homeowners alike. The conversation revealed that fireplaces are not just a source of warmth—they are strategic tools for engagement, differentiation, and lifestyle storytelling in residential design. Research consistently shows that fireplaces are among the most desired features in new homes, with 77% of buyers listing them as a priority. Beyond emotional appeal, fireplaces offer tangible value: they can add up to 10% to a home's resale value—equivalent to a garage—while remaining relatively accessible, starting at approximately $2,000. For builders, fireplaces help differentiate offerings in competitive markets, enhance staging appeal, and align with buyer desires for personalization and interaction. Modern fireplaces extend well beyond traditional living rooms. Hearth & Home Technologies' portfolio includes indoor, outdoor, and indoor-outdoor configurations, allowing architects and designers to integrate fireplaces into kitchens, bathrooms, ensuites, and shared spaces. Electric fireplaces offer unprecedented placement flexibility, while gas units with direct vent technology allow designers to position flames virtually anywhere without compromising air quality. Heat management innovations also enable TVs to be safely mounted above fireplaces, merging functionality with aesthetic appeal. Customization and premium finishes remain a hallmark of Hearth & Home's strategy. Their U-shaped and L-shaped designs, multi-sided fireplaces, and the Enlight Collection's fireproof image panels demonstrate the growing appetite for bespoke elements that reflect homeowners' individuality. Proportion, scale, and feature integration—such as firebox décor, stone slabs, or quartz surrounds—allow designers to create compelling focal points that harmonize with the broader home environment. Equally important is the company's commitment to builder and designer partnerships. Their Pro Advantage program, continuing education courses through AIA and IDEC, and extensive distribution network ensure that both builders and designers have the knowledge, tools, and on-site support to incorporate fireplaces seamlessly. Builders benefit from reliable supply chains and flexible pricing options, while designers gain access to innovative solutions that align with client expectations. Technology continues to play a central role in Hearth & Home's product evolution. Wi-Fi-enabled fireplaces, LED rotisserie flames, and digital flame technologies like the Illusion Edge allow homeowners to control ambiance remotely and safely. Wood-burning fireplaces adhere to EPA standards, ensuring environmentally conscious solutions for diverse markets. The company also emphasizes timeless design, prioritizing chic, intentional, and adaptable products over fleeting trends. As KBIS 2026 demonstrates, fireplaces are more than decorative features—they are emotional anchors, value drivers, and design catalysts. By combining technology, customization, and education, Hearth & Home Technologies positions the fireplace as an essential component of modern residential architecture, offering builders, designers, and homeowners a tool to elevate both experience and value.

Today's poem is Or am I a room with a roof taken off, still holding onto my idea of ceiling by Kelly Hoffer. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Maggie writes… “Fireplaces, thunderstorms, ocean waves—these sounds are popular “white noise” for sleep and relaxation. And it's odd, when I think about how these sounds represent very real dangers in nature. About how we are soothed by the contained version of something that can harm us.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.
