The crew of the Little Snail, traveling food truck and makeshift HQ for this band of equally makeshift adventurers, has agreed to escort a young priestess named Veile to a mysterious destination. Within days, they met their first obstacle: a group of mischievous Fleggs who've vandalized the Little Snail and sabotaged the way forward… This week on Perpetua: The Shadow of the Dragon Tower Pt. 02 Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.01] NPCs & Monsters [PNMS] Flegg [NMFL] Typical Traits: Mischievous, Anxious, Clever, Family Oriented Stats: DEX 8, INS 8, MIG 8, WLP 8 Attacks: Flegg Strike, Infuriate, Flegg Blast Special Abilities: Final Act: Stoneshell In-Game Description: A living egg. It comes up to your shins. It has a beak!? These guys must be a little different than they were in the demo, because they definitely didn't have the ability to turn into a stone when you killed them in Prelude. I wonder if something happened to them between the game or if the designers just rebalanced them? Anyway, they're a basic enemy type, pretty good for grinding, but don't underestimate how they can overwhelm you in a group. Starter Tip: Even though they're “monsters” you can actually try to use Persuasion on them! Vinnor Jekk (he/him) [NMVJ] Traits: Devoted, Optimistic, Pedantic, Arrogant Stats: ??? Attacks: ??? Spells: ??? In-Game Description: Solivigant of the Way of Fearless Truth who seeks to enact a world-saving prophecy. I can't tell what I think about this guy. Either he's going to betray the party and become a mid-game boss or he's just one of those guys you hate to talk to even though he's technically right about everything. No clue about stats/attacks/spells (because let's be real, this guy DEFINITELY has spells). Starter Tip: Depending on your dialog choices you can get a chance to snoop through his stuff to get more lore.  Chelik, Awakened Dragon Watcher (she/her) [NMCH] Traits: Wise, Focused, Out-of-Her-Time, Melancholy Stats: DEX 6, INS 10, MIG 6, WLP 10 Attacks: Elemental Charge  Spells: Ice Beam, Flame Breath In-Game Description: Recently revived scryer of the Dragon Watchers. I can't stress this enough: Chelik is an optional boss. Unless you have done a bunch of grinding, she's probably out of your range when you first meet her. Yes, you can get some really decent gear if you manage to knock her out, but I think it's probably worth trying to avoid the fight all together (or else use the Persuade command to try to escape it). Starter Tip: If she's using Elemental Charge, that means she's low on MP and you can probably push the advantage a little!   Hosted by Austin Walker (austinwalker.bsky.social) FeaturingAli Acampora (ali-online.bsky.social), Art Martinez-Tebbel (amtebbel.bsky.social), Jack de Quidt (notquitereal.bsky.social), and Andrew Lee Swan (swandre3000.bsky.social) Produced by Ali Acampora Music by Jack de Quidt (available on bandcamp) Cover Art by Ben McEntee (https://linktr.ee/benmce.art) With thanks to Amelia Renee, Arthur B., Aster Maragos, Bill Kaszubski, Cassie Jones, Clark, DB, Daniel Laloggia, Diana Crowley, Edwin Adelsberger, Emrys, Greg Cobb, Ian O'Dea, Ian Urbina, Irina A., Jack Shirai, Jake Strang, Katie Diekhaus, Ken George, Konisforce, Kristina Harris Esq, L Tantivy, Lawson Coleman, Mark Conner, Mike & Ruby, Muna A, Nat Knight, Olive Perry, Quinn Pollock, Robert Lasica, Shawn Drape, Shawn Hall, Summer Rose, TeganEden, Thomas Whitney, Voi, chocoube, deepFlaw, fen, & weakmint This episode was made with support from listeners like you!

If you've experienced the healing power of engaging your story—through a Story Workshop, Recovery Week, Narrative Focused Trauma Care® (NFTC) training, or a Story Group in your own context—you may have found yourself wondering: Why does this work feel so deeply transformative? What's actually happening here? In this special episode, we're pulling back the curtain on a groundbreaking, multi-year research project that's beginning to explore those very questions. Dr. Danielle Zurinsky of the Allender Center and Dr. David C. Wang of Fuller Theological Seminary join Dr. Dan Allender and Rachael Clinton Chen to share what they're discovering so far—and why this moment matters. This work is part of a broader initiative we're calling the NFTC Model Research & Publication Project. It's an ambitious, long-term effort to clarify, codify, and formally articulate the core framework of Narrative Focused Trauma Care. Grounded in the decades-long work of Dr. Dan Allender, this project is about more than research—it's about building a foundation that allows this healing model to be recognized, trusted, and shared more widely. In today's conversation, we're letting you in early—before the publications—because we want this process to be rooted in relationship, transparency, and shared vision. Whether you're a practitioner, a past participant, or someone simply curious about the impact of story, you're part of this unfolding journey, too! And if your own healing has been shaped by story engagement with NFTC, this is a chance to be part of something bigger. You can support the continuation of this growing body of research—fueling everything from the team of scholars and writers to expanded training opportunities and broader recognition in therapeutic, academic, and spiritual spaces. You can visit theallendercenter.org/give to contribute at any financial level. We are currently fundraising to support the next phase of this project's continuation. Your contribution will help ensure this work continues—so more people, families, and communities can experience the deep transformation that comes through engaging their stories with courage and care.

In this episode of the Pain and Performance Podcast, I sit down with Mac Davis, the founder of Mini Circle, a cutting-edge company revolutionizing gene therapy with mini-circle plasmids. If you've ever wondered how science is pushing the boundaries of longevity, muscle growth, and inflammation control; this conversation is a must-listen. "Health feels better than convenient."What Makes Mini-Circle Plasmids Different?Most gene therapy sounds like sci-fi, but Mini Circle's approach is different; safer, cleaner, and non-invasive to your DNA. Unlike traditional methods that can alter your genetic code, mini-circle plasmids work alongside your body's natural systems without changing your original blueprint.No DNA modification – Just temporary instructions that help your body heal and optimize itself.Delivered into fat tissue – Simple injections (no scary viral vectors).Focused on real-world results – From reducing chronic pain to boosting muscle growth.The Power of Folistatin: More Than Just MuscleFolistatin isn't some synthetic lab chemical; it's a natural human hormone that regulates muscle growth, fat metabolism, and even bone health. But its real superpower? Fighting chronic inflammation, one of the biggest hidden killers in modern health.Patients with stubborn joint pain and injuries report dramatic improvements after Folistatin therapy.It's not just for athletes; anyone dealing with age-related muscle loss or inflammation could benefit.Clotho: The "Magic" Longevity GeneIf you haven't heard of Clotho, pay attention. This gene therapy is showing insane potential for:Cognitive function – Patients describe "brain fog" lifting within weeks.Kidney health – A major factor in how well we age.Overall vitality – Some say they feel "like their younger selves" again.One of the most striking takeaways? A patient who said:"This is how I was before. This is me."Stacking Therapies for Maximum ImpactWhy stop at one therapy when you can combine them? Gene therapy stacking (like using Folistatin + Clotho) could be the next big leap in health optimization. Think of it like building a personalized longevity protocol—tailored to your body's needs.People in their 50s and 60s regaining muscle and energy levels they hadn't seen in decades.Individuals prioritizing quality of life over just adding years.As Mac puts it: "People deserve to be healthy."Links: DERRICKTikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@drderrickInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/derrickbhines/Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/@DrDerrickMac Davis:Website: https://minicircle.io/ Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/minicircledna/

Today's episode of UFC Unfiltered sees Jim Norton and Matt Serra kick off a Monday full of fight talk with bantamweight contender Cory Sandhagen and featherweight standout Yair Rodriguez. First up, Sandhagen joins the show just days removed from his dominant second-round TKO over Deiveson Figueiredo. He breaks down his performance, shares what clicked in the cage, and explains why he's ready to step in as a title challenger following June's Merab Dvalishvili vs. Sean O'Malley rematch. Between interviews, Jim and Matt react to the weekend's biggest upset: Bo Nickal suffering his first professional loss at the hands of Reinier de Ridder. The guys break down what went wrong and what could be next for the highly touted prospect. Later, Yair Rodriguez stops by to reflect on his rebound win over Patricio Pitbull and to lay out his vision for the featherweight division. Focused more on avenging his loss to Alexander Volkanovski than chasing a grudge match with Diego Lopes, Yair also gives his take on the evolution of his training partner Belal Muhammad, who defends his welterweight title this weekend at UFC 315. To wrap up the show, Jim and Matt dish out shoutouts to the standout performances from UFC Des Moines and look ahead to a stacked week of MMA action.

In today's enlightening episode of The Healthy Sleep Revolution, Dr. Meghna Dassani sits down with Dr. Nimisha Somaiya, the heart behind Seva Dental in Bellbrook, Ohio. With a unique blend of clinical expertise and a deeply personal journey into sleep-disordered breathing, Dr. Somaiya shares how incorporating sleep medicine into her dental practice has transformed not only her own life and her family's health—but is now changing the lives of her patients as well.   This isn't just a conversation about straight teeth—it's about functional dentistry and how something as seemingly cosmetic as Invisalign can have life-changing impacts when used with intention. You'll discover how airway-focused dentistry plays a vital role in supporting proper tongue posture, creating space for better breathing, and ultimately helping to address conditions like obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).   In this episode, you'll learn: - Why crowding of the teeth isn't just an aesthetic issue—it's an airway issue - How functional orthodontics like Invisalign can create space for the tongue and improve breathing - The importance of proper tongue posture and ideal oral resting posture - Why snoring, grinding, and bedwetting in kids should never be ignored - The variety of effective treatment options available beyond CPAP therapy - How dental professionals can be key allies in identifying and treating sleep apnea   Top 3 Takeaways from Dr. Somaiya: - Parents, pay attention to your child's sleep habits – Snoring, grinding, and hyperactivity are warning signs, not phases they'll “grow out of.” - Don't ignore a sleep apnea diagnosis – If CPAP isn't working for you, there are alternatives like oral appliance therapy that can help you breathe and sleep better. - Be your own advocate – If your doctor isn't taking your symptoms seriously, keep pushing.

For those who appreciate the craft of whiskey, this episode is a deep dive into how passion and innovation can harmonize to create exceptional spirits.A Deep Dive into TatterSall WhiskeyThe episode kicks off with an introduction to the unique Tattersall distillery whiskey varieties. Focused particularly on the Minnesota Rye. Dan shares that their rye uses 85% rye grain and 15% malted rye. This is entirely crafted from local Minnesota ingredients. He explains the flavor profile to the hosts. This includes black pepper spice and subtle cocoa bean notes that characterize their rye, making it perfect for cocktails or a neat sip.Tattersall's philosophy centers around using locally sourced grains. This includes rye and other key ingredients to enhance the complexity and authenticity of their products."We have a great soil and climate here," Dan notes, emphasizing the importance of sustainable and local farming partnerships, such as their long-standing collaboration with Dale Anderson of Cambridge, Minnesota.A Journey to DistillationDan told Old-Fashioned Football about his journey to establishing Tattersall. He reflects on his early years as a bartender, where he developed a passion for crafting every element behind the bar. His transition to distilling was sparked by a childhood friend's proposal to create something more than just cocktails — to distill the spirits themselves.For Dan, distilling was a natural progression. After bartending and creating small-batch bitters and sodas, the idea to open a distillery allowed him to bring everything full circle. He recounts the reunion with Jon Keidler, a childhood friend turned business partner. Jon came to dinner at his restaurant and proposed the idea of starting the distillery together. Jon, with his investment background, had a business plan ready, and Dan's expertise in flavor and distillation made them the perfect team.Tattersall's New Home: River FallsOne of the most exciting advancements for Tattersall is their move to River Falls, Wisconsin. As Dan and the team sought to expand and optimize operations, they settled in a repurposed former Shopko building. This new facility is not just larger but also beams with sustainability efforts. This includes the largest solar array of any distillery in the country, water reclamation systems, and zero waste operations.Dan proudly describes the facility as perhaps the greenest distillery in America. Tattersall's commitment to sustainability is enhanced by its involvement in the White Oak Initiative. This is an effort to plant American white oaks necessary for future barrel production.Exploring the Tattersall Product LineThe conversation also ventures into Tattersall's diverse product offerings. This includes unique launches like their toasted coconut avi, lauded for its innovative combination of botanical ingredients. There's something for everyone at Tattersall, including their award-winning absinthe and canned cocktails.Dan explains how Tattersall approaches canning by lowering alcohol content for more refreshing, sessionable drinks. This includes their blueberry basil vodka collins, which has become a popular favorite. Though the whiskey peach tea didn't find its footing in the initial launch, it remains a hidden gem beloved by its loyal fans.An Invitation to VisitTattersall doesn't just want people to buy their products—they want to welcome them to the distillery itself. With events ranging from free mini margaritas on Cinco de Mayo to broader public tours, Tattersall ensures a visit is worth every minute.The distillery offers tastings of their complete product line.
