Why does bread that is several months old not mold? Why is it still "spongy" like fresh bread? (This CAN'T be good)... Are most Americans addicted to these chemicals? (It looks like it, unfortunately)...And, Savage factory rifles--love them or hate them--continue to hang with the "Big Dogs"... not kidding. Weekend match results and observations. We hope you'll tune in. :)

What to listen for:“At the end of the day, taking care of our dogs is everyone's job.”Our hosts, Robin Greubel and Stacy Barnett, talk with Joy Brenner of K9 Medic about looking at canine first aid not just from the perspective of flashy trauma response, but that of the quiet, daily work of truly knowing your dog.Joy, who began in human wilderness and tactical medicine, built K9 Medic to teach handlers, medics, and even surgeons pre-hospital care tailored to real field conditions.High-fidelity mannequins like K9 Hero and Diesel train teams on military-identified killers such as tension pneumothorax, but Joy repeatedly returns to the bigger truth: heat, not bullets or dramatic wounds, is the top preventable cause of death for every dog, whether tactical, SAR, sport, or pet.Her Handler 2.0 program trains handlers in “dog speak”: reading baselines, scaling panting, tracking work/rest cycles, and spotting when a dog is no longer compensating.They bust old myths (alcohol pads, ice-pack vasoconstriction fears, over-cooling shock) and stress rapid cooling to skin level while stopping just above normal, so temperature momentum carries the dog safely home.Structured observation prevents emergencies, improves performance, and turns both handlers and medics into better advocates, because taking care of our dogs is everyone's job!

Ouch! You've just gotten a paper cut on your finger. What's the first thing you do? If you're like most people, you'll probably put your finger in your mouth. If you think about it, you probably have no idea why you put your finger into your mouth. Actually, when a dog licks its wounds or when you put your paper cut-ravaged finger in your mouth, you are beginning medical treatment.Medical science is only just learning what God knew when He built this reaction into us. The saliva of mammals and human beings contains Epidermal growth factor. Studies show that when epidermal growth factor is applied to wounds, healing takes place much faster. Epidermal growth factor increases the number of cells available to grow new skin over a wound. It also encourages capillaries to form near the wound to increase blood supply. Epidermal growth factor doubles the amount of new DNA at the wound site. Finally, it increases the amount of collagen in the wound to give the new tissue the strength to close up and remain closed.Researchers have little idea how epidermal growth factor works. They are still researching this powerful medicine that's found in our saliva.Only our wise and loving Creator could have provided us with this convenient and powerful medical treatment. Only He could have built into us the natural reaction of putting an injured finger into our mouth. Like so much else in the creation, this blessing is too well designed to be nothing more than a series of unrelated coincidences.Nehemiah 9:6“Thou, even thou, art Lord alone; thou hast made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth, and all things that are therein, the seas, and all that is therein, and thou preservest them all; and the host of heaven worshippeth thee.”Prayer: Dear Father, our pagan world talks about chance and coincidence. But I learn in Your Word that there is no such thing. Cleanse my thinking and speech of this pagan influence so that I may better witness Your truth. In Jesus' Name.

Episode 138 welcomes Cole into the Jungle for a conversation that moves with both maturity and edge. From the start, the energy feels reflective but competitive — the kind of dialogue that happens when everyone in the room has something to prove, but also something to protect. The jokes are there, the tension is there, but so is the honesty.The music sets the tone. Jill Scott's To Whom It May Concern brings soul into the space, reminding everyone that grown artistry still holds weight in a culture obsessed with quick hits. A Boogie's Before Artistry sparks a conversation about evolution — what it means to revisit your roots while still trying to elevate. Brent Faiyaz's ICON keeps the R&B energy flowing, leading to a debate about confidence versus arrogance and whether modern crooners are building legacy or just moments.Then the headlines hit.LaRussell's critique of Lil Wayne's music opens a bigger conversation about generational respect — when does critique become disrespect, and who gets to judge legends? Larry Wheels smacking Fiyah out of Deen The Great turns into a broader discussion about discipline, viral moments, and the line between entertainment and real-life consequences. The passing of Jesse Jackson shifts the tone entirely, bringing reflection on legacy, activism, and how quickly history gets rewritten. And the announcement of Tyson versus Mayweather potentially happening sends the room into full debate mode — spectacle or serious sport, and who actually benefits from these cross-era matchups?As always, the Jungle saves its sharpest edges for the relationship talk. The first question hits hard: if the sex is incredible but everything else about your partner is chaos, are you staying or eventually choosing peace? The conversation turns personal as stories surface about competing for someone's attention — ego, insecurity, and pride all colliding in real time. Then it gets nuanced: can your partner keep a private folder of intimate memories, or does secrecy automatically create suspicion? And finally, the episode closes on ambition — does your partner need to match your level of drive, or can imbalance in ambition slowly erode attraction over time?Episode 138 feels layered — part grown conversation, part competitive energy, part cultural breakdown. It's introspective but still wild, thoughtful but still unfiltered.Welcome back to the Jungle.—Subscribe: YouTube.com/@JSCNetwork_ Follow: @thejunglesquadcast Ape Loso – @apeishere_ Rad – @radical_jl Rahh – @_rahhbanks Guest: Cole#JungleSquadCast #Episode138 #BrentFaiyaz #ABoogie #JillScott #LaRussell #MikeTyson #FloydMayweather #RelationshipTalk #PodcastCulture

Ben & Woods kick off the 7am hour talking about San Diego FC's win last night in their season opener at Snapdragon Stadium!

Welcome aboard to another episode of the Traveling Groomers Podcast, where the world of mobile and house call grooming comes alive! In this episode, hosts Chris Anthony and Mary Oquendo dive deep into what it means to truly invest in your grooming business—especially during the holiday season and as we roll into the New Year. Forget standard New Year's resolutions! Instead, our hosts challenge groomers to think about "gifting" their business—whether it's upgrading equipment, streamlining operations by cutting unnecessary subscriptions, or even adding valuable enrichment tools and treats to make life easier for both pets and groomers. The conversation covers everything from the practical (like the importance of a trash can with a lid) to self-care for your business, such as revamping policies, updating first aid kits, and being honest with yourself and your clients. You'll also hear real-world stories about upholding policies, handling those tricky cancellation fees, and advocating for yourself and your furry clients both in the grooming salon and at the vet's office. Chris Anthony and Mary Oquendo blend wisdom, humor, and a healthy dose of real talk, sharing both lessons learned the hard way and tips to start your new year with clarity and confidence. So grab your travel mug, hop aboard, and let's explore how you can set your business up for another successful, fulfilling year. Happy New Year, and happy grooming!

In Episode 5 of our Trench Tips series, we break down Chapter 5 of Sales Is Therapy: “First Aid Kit.” This episode is all about preparation, not for when things are going well, but for when sales inevitably get hard. Rejection, hang-ups, missed targets, bad months, and emotional slumps aren't exceptions in sales - they're guaranteed. The mistake most people make is waiting until they're already drowning before they think about how to recover. In this episode, we introduce the idea of a personal sales first aid kit: a set of tools, reminders, and routines you prepare in advance to help you reset, refocus, and regain momentum when things go wrong. From the “1–1–1 rule” to mindset resets, motivation anchors, and practical recovery habits, this is about building resilience before you need it. Get the book “Sales Is Therapy” here: https://amzn.eu/d/dJsWoXp What you'll learn: Why sales slumps are unavoidable and normal How to build a personal first aid kit for tough days The 1–1–1 rule (1 minute, 1 hour, 1 day resets) How to recover emotionally after rejection Why preparation beats motivation every time Subscribe for more raw, unedited sales psychology from the trenches.

She highlights the emotional challenges that arise during this time, including family dynamics, heightened expectations, and the potential for triggers. Rose provides practical tips for maintaining emotional stability, such as prioritizing routines, setting boundaries, managing triggers, and practicing healthy coping strategies.

In this episode, we sit down and talk about what being prepared really means in everyday life. We are joined by Olivia from Redi to share the story behind the kit and why it was created after a real life emergency. We talk through what makes Redi different from a traditional first aid kit, how it is designed around real world scenarios, and why readiness is about confidence, not fear. From RV travel and road trips to daily life surprises, this conversation is about being ready for whatever comes your way and still living life to the fullest.

Liam actually keeps me in a big glass cube in his garage, and whenever my services are required, he uses a large hammer to release me. The entire process is inefficient (and don't even get me started on how much he's spending on glass per financial quarter), but he has started patting me on the head and telling me how good I am at writing words, so who am I to complain?   Much in the same way I am released from my prison in the event of an emergency, the Indieventure trio were forced to smash the proverbial glass that surrounds the listener mailbag format this week, following a last-minute embargo change to a game they were all planning on reviewing instead. That game was Demonschool, which was pushed back to November following the surprise announcement of the release date for Hollow Knight: Silksong.   The episode begins with a brief discussion about Team Cherry's upcoming mega hit, especially how much it has disrupted the indie game release schedule. Is Silksong the indie equivalent of Grand Theft Auto 6? That's maybe a question they answer here. I can't remember. Maybe listen to the episode yourself instead of expecting me to do it? You fool. You oaf.   Then, the trio answer YOUR questions! Who is the hottest Peggle character? What does a successful indie podcast look like? What are your earliest memories of gaming? You'll find out the answers to these (and more!) in this section.   Finally, it's Hyperfixation time. Liam is channeling Big Dad Energy after watching The Naked Gun, Rebecca has been listening to The Lion's Roar by First Aid Kit, and Rachel has been playing The Drifter.   Anyway, I'd best be off. A DPD van just delivered an enormous glass cube, and Liam is now standing outside of its door, tapping his watch and looking impatient.

As a follow-up to our series The Prescription Drug Playbook — all about how you can get the meds you need at a price you can (maybe) afford — we’re stepping back to look at the big picture. From the start of this podcast, we’ve been trying to answer a major question: Why do my meds cost so freaking much? And we’ve highlighted the profit-seeking games that insurance, pharma, and middlemen play all around us in more than a half dozen episodes. But there’s one set of players on the field that we’ve never talked about: drug distributors, and how they play a role in another reason you may not be able to get your medicine: drug shortages. This story comes from our friends at Organized Money, a podcast about monopolies, from writers and journalists David Dayen and Matt Stoller. We think you’re going to like it. In the meantime, check out the latest installment of our First Aid Kit newsletter for a rundown of our previous coverage of drug costs. Here’s a transcript of this episode.

In February, we asked you, our listeners, to share the tips, tricks, and tactics you’ve learned for getting the medicine you need at prices you can manage. And of course some of you work in health care and have insider knowledge. Which we’re passing along in this second episode of The Prescription Drug Playbook. We’ll hear from a listener who works to help seniors find healthcare, a pharma sales rep, an employee benefits advisor, and a battle-worn hospital caseworker – all bringing something a little surprising, and possibly even life-saving to the table. Of course—for all their advice, there is a BIG caveat: there is no one solution for everyone. This is a set of patches, workarounds, bandaids. We deserve SO much better. But in the meantime, maybe some of these tips can help. Here’s a link to the Find a Health Center Tool that we told you about in the episode—it’s worth checking out!

When putting together a bug-out bag in case of emergencies, don't forget your herbs! Just like a first aid kit, a go bag is best when you construct it according to your specific needs, and the needs of people you'll be with. This isn't a “one size fits all” situation!The same goes for circumstances when you need to shelter in place. A ‘stay-in stash' is just a go-bag without the go. It's an orderly, intentional accumulation of all the things you'll need if the power goes out for a week, or you can't leave your home for an extended period of time.Herbs, food, and ‘everything else' all need to go in there – and don't forget water! In this episode we discuss what to include, what to avoid, and ways to keep your stock rotating and fresh for a moment of need.Mentioned in this episode:HHP 233: Emergency Readiness Needs A Meal PlanFEMA AppWe're highlighting first aid herbalism on the podcast all month.

Just like checking your stock of remedies in the apothecary, herbal first aid kit maintenance is one of those things you need to carve out time for – at least once a year! It's June, which is the kick-off to summer adventure and here on the east coast, also hurricane season. In other regions, wildfire season is already started, and even without a disaster, summer means more bumps & bruises – so it's the perfect time for us to be focusing on first aid and updating your kit.Your kit might need updates if your health needs change, or if different people enter your circle of care. Sometimes old remedies need replacing, or you find a better system to organize everything. Your first aid kit is like a garden – it needs tending to be at its best.This month we'll be sharing lots of first aid information on the podcast. Let's start off with your first aid kit. If you have one, it needs maintenance. If you don't have one, this is the time to build one!

In surveys, one in four Americans report having to skip their medications due to cost. We asked our listeners: what strategies have you used when you’ve been hit with pharmacy sticker shock? We heard from a ton of you – with stories, strategies and workarounds that surprised and encouraged us. None of them will work for everybody. This is a set of patches and bandaids for a broken system. But if there’s one that’ll work for you, we want to help you find it. So we’re bringing you the most-complete, best-organized set of patches we can. In this episode — the first of two episodes — a dad named Bob tells us how he learned some hard-earned lessons. When Bob’s teenage daughter Mary was diagnosed with epilepsy, it took her doctors years of trial and error to find the right treatment. It finally worked, Mary's seizures stopped — and then, when Bob's insurance changed, the price tag for Mary's meds went through the roof. What Bob did next represents one possible journey through the dizzying (and often exasperating) maze of potential workarounds for getting your medicine at a price you can afford. We’ve started compiling lessons from Bob’s story and others in our First Aid Kit newsletter. Our first installment features a price comparison spreadsheet… inspired by Bob (who we’d like to nominate for Dad of the Year). Here’s a transcript of this episode. Send your stories and questions.

A few months ago, we got a note from a listener named Meagan, who wanted to thank us. She said the stories she heard on this show had given her the advice and encouragement she needed to finally win a fight against a medical bill she didn’t owe — a battle she’d been waging for more than two years. As Meagan tells us, those two years were filled with wild twists and turns and a lot of disappointment. We hear what kept her motivated and encouraged despite all the setbacks – and after an insurance rep pointed her to a free legal resource — the tactic that finally led to a breakthrough. Here’s a resource we mention — with a spoiler alert: It’s the sample cease-and-desist letter that a lawyer shared with Meagan. We’ll break down the details — how a letter like this could work, in certain situations — in a future First Aid Kit newsletter. Here’s a transcript of this episode. Send your stories and questions.

A federal agency called the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau — CFPB for short — has taken big steps to help people with medical debt. In early February, the Trump administration moved to effectively shutter the agency. We talked with credit counselor Lara Ceccarelli about how the CFPB has helped clients at the nonprofit where she works, and how she’s navigating the sudden change. And consumer-rights advocate Chi Chi Wu — an attorney with the National Consumer Law Center — describes the court battle she and her colleagues are mounting to slow down the agency’s dismantling — and where things could go from here. We’ll track this developing story in next week’s First Aid Kit newsletter, so if you’re not signed up, this is a great time to start: www.armandalegshow.com/firstaidkit.

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, brought to you by Topo Athletic, we are A'in your Q's, with our pal and yours, the lightly bearded Jabba aka The Real Hiking Viking. In today's question and answer we dive into a host of nitty gritty backpacking details, including what exactly is in our first aid kit, electronics bag (down to the cords), and our stuff sac systems, including some specific product recommendations. We also chat about our least favorite backpacking trips, our thought process in choosing socks for a backpacking trip, and what we deem as the biggest misuse of money when on a thru-hike. Jabba also updates us on what life has been like sans-beard, the fallout with his girlfriend, and if he plans to bring it back. We wrap the show with our go to movie theater orders, why corn maintains its shape when shat, the triple crown of cities we'd add an NFL team and what their mascots would be, and we once again dive down the rabbit hole of how often peepee happens during poopoo.
