Nicole Kardoes began homeschooling while her husband, Lieutenant Colonel Michael Kardoes, served in the Air Force. Frequent moves and long deployments were simply part of life, and homeschooling became a way to bring consistency to their ever- changing world. In 2022, Michael passed away from burn pit exposure. Homeschooling quickly became much more than an educational choice, it became a lifeline. Nicole and her children were given the gift of the flexibility and stability they needed to grieve, heal, and rebuild. In this episode, Nicole shares her story of love, loss, and resilience, and how the military homeschooling community and organizations like the Tunnel to Towers Foundation helped her family find hope and strength through it all. "Resiliency, being part of a community, academics—they all play a part in homeschooling. I have kids that are married with their master's degree, and they had scholarships all the way through. I have other kids that did community college. I have two that aren't sure they even want to go to college. (My 15-year-old wants to be a farrier, so she wants to go trade school.) There is room for all these things within homeschooling! Whether it's the kid who absolutely hates academics and they just want you to hurry up and count the credits and be done, [or] the kid who aspires for graduate school or maybe becoming a professor themselves someday and getting that PhD, there's room for [both]. That's the beautiful thing. We can tailor it to that while we are giving them other skills as well."—Nicole Kardoes

In this deeply insightful message, Pastor Olubi Johnson unveils the mystery of divine orchestration, using the story of Paul in Acts 23 as a vivid illustration. He teaches that prayer is the spiritual mechanism through which God activates protection, preservation, and guidance in the believer's life. Even when circumstances seem uncertain, God's invisible hand is always at work, shaping events to fulfil His perfect plan (Rom. 8:28; Is. 64:4).   Pastor Olubi warns against being hasty to judge others, reminding us that some may act wrongly yet with sincere hearts, like Paul before his conversion. Others may stumble through ignorance or wrong influence. Instead of condemning, we must pray and show mercy (Acts 23:1; 1 Tim. 1:13). He reminds believers that God's timing is precise—His promises unfold through a series of divine steps, each preparing you for destiny. The path may sometimes be rough or delayed because the enemy opposes your advancement, but patience and prayer guarantee victory (Hab. 2:3; 1 Thess. 2:18).   God's protection is not always spectacular—it can come through a quiet nudge, a delay, or a simple prompting. Such subtle leadings are as supernatural as visible miracles (Is. 30:21; Ps. 91:11). Those who walk closely with God carry greater responsibility and must live with greater caution and consistency in prayer. Frequent, fervent praying in the Spirit disarms unseen threats and aligns all things for your good (Rom. 8:26–28; Jude 1:20).   You can follow Pastor Olubi Johnson on X, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.

First, a good chuckle from The Lincoln Project: The Epstein Memorial Ballroom. Brilliant!------President Donald Trump challenging Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to take the same cognitive test given to patients under physicians' scrutiny for dementia or Alzheimer's Disease isn't the "own" he thinks it is, but it begs the question: why's a guy who's had two MRIs in six months and showing clear signs of decline still in office when it was his party that had massive(ly overblown?) concerns about a similar (was it?) scenario just a year ago? ------Steve Bannon's confident there'll be a third Trump presidency (wouldn't Trump need to be alive and in good mental health?) in 2029, but polling indicates that Americans are remembering why they soured on a Trump presidency the first time. Trump's hemorrhaging Hispanic American support (this should surprise no one), but he's also under water with Georgia voters. New Atlanta Journal Constitution polling shows about one in five Republicans agree the nation is on the "wrong track." Overall, GOP support for Trump remains stubbornly strong, but not as strong as disdain for him from outside the GOP. His clout in 2026 races? Not that big a deal, according to likely GOP voters, but then neither is the endorsement of Governor Brian Kemp. ------Are CNN staffers right to be concerned their boss is gently nudging his network to lighten up on coverage of the East Wing demolition? Hmm; why, after his visit to The White House would he be doing that? Also, is it that Americans can actually visualize Trump destroying our nation's institutions and it's a bad look?------Frequent show guest, Jay Bookman with the Georgia Recorder, has weighed in on the 2026 Democratic field for Georgia's governor's race, boiling it down to a likely generational rumble between the 72-year old Mike Thurmond and 42-year old Jason Esteves. His reasons for discounting the early polling leader (Keisha Lance Bottoms) aren't new to consider on this show, but noteworthy, still. Also noteworthy, he didn't even mention Rep. Ruwa Romman, who's galvanizing energy with a small army of campaign volunteers and already door-knocking and doing interviews aplenty to grow awareness of her and her progressive bona fides.On with me to discuss his time with Rep. Romman is Atlanta Voice editor-in-chief Donnell Suggs.------Then, state Senator Nikki Merritt joined me to discuss her bold idea: asking Governor Brian Kemp to call for a special general assembly session to tap into the state's $14.6 billion in reserve funds to keep SNAP benefits going for the state's 1.3 million recipients. She and other members of the Georgia Legislative Black Caucus held a press conference Monday to validate their rationale, and there's plenty of merit in it.------This one's wild: a Cobb County school board member (it's vice chair!) is fielding calls for his resignation after he and a business of his has been named in a $250,000 civil lawsuit. On with me to discuss this story, Cobb County Courier's Rebecca Gaunt.

As another Halloween approaches, Sophia and Nick are excited to celebrate Hitchcock-tober once again! This time, they marvel at the outstanding collaboration between the famed director and the costume designer with the most Oscar nominations and wins, Edith Head. Their eleven films together spanned three decades, multiple studios, and the transition from B/W to color. Listen to find out how Head uses different materials and colors to create looks that accentuate an actor's figure, develop a character's identity, and provide narrative function, all the while dazzling audience with unforgettable designs. Should she have been nominated for more than just To Catch a Thief? From Notorious (1946) to Topaz (1976), which is your favorite collaboration between them? *Note: If you've never seen Vertigo and do NOT want it spoiled, skip ahead from (36:46) to (38:55) for a more general appreciation of the film's costumes.Follow us on Twitter, Instagram, Bluesky, and TikTok @oscarwildpodFollow Sophia @sophia_cimFollow Nick @sauerkraut27Music: “The Greatest Adventure” by Jonathan AdamichMore content including updated predictions and merch @ oscarwild.squarespace.com

This hour, Scoot attempted to talk about the New Orleans Saints, but a WWL listener called in an derailed the show by talking about the mental integrity of furries.

Tomorrow, we are set to see what could be the largest strike in last 40 years, as seperate unions representing nurses, teachers and many more come together to put pressure on the government to take their negotiations seriously. In total, it'll likely be around 100,000 kiwis pushing for better working conditions. Frequent in their demands are requests for better pay that has been eroded by the inflation of the past few years, as well as safer staffing levels, as many professionals vacate the New Zealand workforce for better working conditions in Australia, leaving our hospitals, schools, and workplaces understaffed. To discuss the upcoming Mega-Strike, Wednesday Wire Producer Manny spoke with Fleur Fitzsimons, the Natioal Secretary of the Public Service Association.

Kieron Allen speaks with Chris Pope, Chief Product Officer at AutomatePro, in an in-depth discussion that is part of a broader series of podcasts, articles, and reports on ServiceNow's evolving ecosystem. They explore how intelligent automation and agentic AI are reshaping DevOps and quality assurance. The conversation also highlights how AutomatePro's built-on approach enhances developer productivity, reduces risk, and ensures security, all within the ServiceNow environment.AutomatePro's AI EdgeThe Big ThemesAutomatePro's Core Mission: AutomatePro focuses on solving one of the most time-consuming parts of software delivery: testing and documentation. Pope explains that their goal isn't to replace humans but to augment their efforts through intelligent automation. By embedding deeply within the ServiceNow platform, AutomatePro allows developers and platform owners to automate repetitive tasks early in the development cycle, ensuring higher-quality releases and faster deployment.Human-AI Collaboration Wins: The myth of AI replacing people is outdated. Pope reframes the conversation: it's not about replacement, it's about enablement. The real winners will be those who know how to use AI effectively. Today's Copilots are context-aware, learning from human behavior and adapting to different personas — whether it's a developer, analyst, or HR owner. Prompt engineering is emerging as a vital skill, and the better the prompt, the better the AI-driven output.DevOps Innovation Without Compromise: AutomatePro and ServiceNow are reshaping DevOps by making speed and quality compatible. Historically, faster releases meant riskier ones. With AutomatePro's intelligent testing automation, that tradeoff no longer exists. Frequent, smaller releases — the “fixed forward” model — are now safer thanks to early automation, embedded security, and contextual AI. Pope argues that platform owners and developers are the new heroes in enterprise IT, and equipping them with Copilots, intelligent workflows, and instant feedback loops unlocks untapped value.The Big Quote: "You're not going to be replaced by AI per se, you're going to be replaced by someone that knows how to use AI effectively."More from ServiceNow and AutomatePro:Follow AutomatePro on LinkedIn or learn more about ServiceNow and intelligent automation.

Teens are forming emotional bonds — not just online, but with AI companions. In this episode, Dr Justin Coulson talks with Brown University psychologist Dr Jacqueline Nesi, author of Techno Sapiens, about the fast-growing world of AI “friendships” and what they mean for kids’ mental health. They also unpack Jackie’s latest research revealing how often teens check their phones — and how it’s shaping their moods. It’s a must-listen for parents navigating the blurred lines between connection, distraction, and dependence in the digital age. KEY POINTS 72% of teens have used an AI companion; over half use one regularly. AI chatbots are designed to keep kids engaged — often prioritising screen time over wellbeing. For some vulnerable kids, AI chats can feel like friendship or therapy — but they aren’t replacements for real connection. Australia’s new social-media age-limit laws may help, but implementation and design flaws remain. Teens check their phones an average of 112 times a day — once every 10 minutes! Frequent phone checking is linked with greater emotional ups and downs. Teens who are less mindful tend to reach for their phones more after bad days — using screens as emotional regulation tools. What matters most: how kids use technology and who they are, not just how much. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE “The effects of smartphones on mood and wellbeing are complicated — it’s not that phones are simply bad, it’s about who’s using them and how.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Techno Sapiens – Dr Jacqueline Nesi’s Substack Tech Without Stress – Resources for parents Happy Families – More parenting resources ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS Ask your kids how they use AI or chatbots — listen before you lecture. Check your family’s phone “pickups” using Screen Time or Digital Wellbeing. Practise mindfulness together — simple breathing, no-tech walks, or screen-free meals. Talk about emotional regulation — help kids notice when they’re using tech to cope. Model balance — show that your phone doesn’t rule you either. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Good health is not always indicated by the absence of disease, some infirmity, or negative conditions in one's life. Good health can also refer to what is present and observed. An area in the believer's life that can be observed and serve as a VITAL SIGN of their spiritual health is prayer. Frequent…

Frequent standing breaks improve heart health. Research shows it reduced blood pressure by 2 to 3 millimeters of mercury (mmHg) in postmenopausal women within 12 weeks Prolonged sitting increases cancer risk significantly. Every additional two hours of daily sitting raises overall cancer risk by 6%, with longest sitters facing 56% higher cancer mortality Movement quality matters more than total sitting time. Breaking up sitting with frequent stands provides better health benefits than simply reducing total daily sitting hours Sedentary behavior triggers harmful biological changes. Sitting decreases muscle activity by 90%, slows metabolism to 1 calorie per minute, and promotes inflammation and insulin resistance Simple interventions can reduce health risks. Standing 10 minutes hourly, walking 30 minutes daily, and aiming for 10,000 steps significantly counteracts sedentary lifestyle dangers

Dr. Nicole Saphier, Board Certified Medical Doctor, Senior Fox News Medical Contributor, and bestselling author of Panic Attack: Playing Politics with Science in the Fight Against COVID-19, joined The Guy Benson Show today for an important conversation on skin cancer awareness. In light of Guy's recent melanoma diagnosis and successful removal, Dr. Saphier emphasized the life-saving importance of self-checks and early detection. She shared her own experience with basal cell skin cancers, noting how catching them early made all the difference. Dr. Saphier also walked through practical steps for identifying abnormal moles and warned that delaying dermatologist visits, even for "minor" concerns, can prove dangerous.

This episode, originally aired as a Digging In With Master Gardeners radio show interview on WGXC 90.7FM, is a discussion about the many virtues of growing your own vegetables. Tim Kennelty interviews Teresa Golden and Jean Thomas about the multiple facets of home vegetable gardening. The first and most obvious benefits to gardening for your own pantry are that you have arguably the freshest possible vegetables, a wider assortment of varieties to choose from, and definitely the most economical access to good food. Teresa advocates “listening to the plant,” explaining that being aware of the plant's silent signals can lead to optimal quality. She says that the color or strawberries 'say' when to pick them, but that tomatoes are more forgiving when picking them early to ripen off the vine. Jean reminds the listener that there are three main groups of veggie families, the cucurbits, the cole crops, and the tomato/eggplant/pepper clan. The most valuable preparation, once the bed is ready to plant, is this: read the seed package because it conveys a wealth of information. The squash family (cucurbits) includes cucumbers as well as zucchini, yellow squash and the winter squashes. Once the summer squash begin to produce, they are persistent and must be harvested consistently. Winter squash have a much longer season and can be harvested when just about everything else is cleared away. Their hard shells make it possible to store in a cool, dry place well into the winter season. Brassicas are the cabbage family, including cauliflower, broccoli and brussels sprouts. Cabbage must be picked at just the right time, and requires good soil and plenty of water, Cauliflowers are ready when the heads are heavy with the florets not yet separating. Broccoli is prolific and easy, and Teresa offers tips on harvesting both broccoli and brussels sprouts. All the cabbages go well into the Fall, extending harvest season. Jean, Teresa and Tim discuss the battle with cabbage worms. Tim wonders what about beans, and reminds Jean and Teresa about another large family full of great nutritious food. They divide into two general types. The ones harvested in the “green” stage can be selected for “all at once” harvest of a plant or continuous daily harvest over several weeks. Planting new crops every two weeks insures a constant harvest season. Others, like limas, kidney and fava beans, are harvested when the seeds become mature on the vine. These are famously good for storage, whether dry or canned.Cucumbers get a separate discussion, They are a native of India, and love warm weather, You can grow bush or vine types. Frequent picking is best. If a cuke gets too big or starts to turn yellow, it's too late. Everybody has a favorite. Teresa likes Kirby, Jean likes Straight Eight, and Tim is a fan of Japanese long cucumbers. Melons are the next logical crop that comes to mind. They can be tricky, with a need for adequate water at the right times, and soil temperature is critical. Smaller melons might be best as the region has a fairly short growing season. There are clues to ripeness, like skin color and texture and stem slippage. Storing them at 70 degrees F and chilling them prior to serving is best. Watermelons require 20 square foot per plant, and there are many tricks and challenges to growing them. Teresa says “heft” is important and Jean and Tim discuss checking the “bellybutton” for ripeness. Root crops are discussed, as are the onion family, which includes garlic. The conversation circles back to tomatoes and their relatives, with tips galore about growing, harvesting and storing. This episode is a cornucopia of information!

On this episode of Managed Care Cast, The American Journal of Managed Care® (AJMC®) speaks with Tory M. Wolff, MBA, an author of a study published in the September 2025 issue and managing partner of Recon Strategy, a management consulting firm specializing in health care strategy. His study, "Impact of More Primary Care Visits on Commercial Health Care Costs," found that more frequent routine primary care visits among certain higher-risk commercially insured adults are associated with lower net population-level health care costs. In this conversation, Wolff explores the inspiration behind his research, expands on his findings, and discusses the next steps to better understand the long-term value of routine primary care in commercial populations.

In this episode of Walk, Don't Run to the Doctor, Miles Hassell MD sits down with author Mac Lake to explore the connection between faith, health, and personal responsibility. Mac Lake is a highly respected leader, author, and founder of Multiply Group, where he helps leaders and organizations develop strategies to multiply their leadership impact. An inspirational trainer and leadership coach, Mac is gifted at simplifying complex ideas into actionable strategies that anyone can implement to achieve transformative results in their personal life, team, and organization. He has written seven books, including The Multiplication Effect, Leading Yourself (forward written by John Maxwell), and The Discipling Leaders Series, offering practical tools for leadership development. Mac and his wife, Cindy, live in Charleston, SC.  Together, Mac and Dr. Hassell discuss how everyday choices about food, exercise, and discipline have a far greater impact on long-term well-being than prescriptions or quick fixes. From processed foods to self-discipline, the conversation highlights how living with purpose and stewardship over our health can transform not only our own lives but also the lives of those around us. Key Takeaways: Personal responsibility matters: Good decisions about diet and lifestyle often outweigh a doctor's prescription. Whole foods over processed foods: Industrial oils, refined carbs, and protein powders are linked to disease, while traditional, whole foods support health. Discipline turns into habit: Self-control in health choices eventually becomes automatic, shaping long-term well-being. Exercise with purpose: Frequent, simple activity—even just a few minutes a day—improves health and prevents decline. Faith and stewardship: Caring for your body honors God, sets an example for family, and reduces avoidable burdens on yourself and others. Purpose protects the brain: Living with intention and meaning reduces risks of cognitive decline and promotes a healthier, more productive, more enjoyable life.

When your child's nervous system is stuck in fight, flight, or freeze, even minor frustrations can trigger explosive outbursts, shutdowns, or runaway behavior. It isn't disobedience—it's the autonomic nervous system in survival mode.Let us unpack why kids get trapped in these stress responses and how calming the brain first restores safety, regulation, and connection.Why does my child melt down after minor frustrations?When your child yells, slams doors, or shuts down over something small, it's not misbehavior—it's a stress response. Their sympathetic nervous system is in overdrive, pumping out stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline.Signs your child's nervous system is stuck in fight, flight, or freeze:Frequent emotional meltdowns and explosive outburstsOverreaction to minor frustrations with big emotionsNeeds 20–30 minutes (or more) to return to calmMood changes, poor focus, and low energy that linger afterwardBehavior is communication. What looks like defiance is really your child's nervous system waving a red flag for help.What does fight, flight, freeze, or fawn look like in kids?Kids react to stress in different ways, but all of these behaviors come from the same alarm system in the nervous system.Fight: yelling, arguing, aggression, lashing outFlight response: running away, hiding, avoiding tasksFreeze response: zoning out, poor concentration, blank stares, silenceFawn: perfectionism, hypervigilance, people-pleasing (often missed)These are autonomic survival responses—not bad choices.

#1,085 - Tony Lyons Tony Lyons joins The Paul Leslie Hour. Are you here? Confirmed! You're here tuned into a personal interview with Tony Lyons on episode number 1,085 of The Paul Leslie Hour. Tony Lyons is the Director of MAHA Action, or Make America Healthy Again Action, which is fighting for a healthier America. He's also the President of Skyhorse Publishing, known for the boldest and most talked about titles around, from authors ranging from Woody Allen to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. to Robert Malone and our friend Christina Bobb...which by the way are all past guests on this show! Ok, let's dive into this one! Tony Lyons awaits! The Paul Leslie Hour is a talk show dedicated to “Helping People Tell Their Stories.” Some of the most iconic people of all time drop in to chat. Frequent topics include Arts, Entertainment and Culture.

In the final episode of Dynamic Pairings, Shantelle (Enneagram 8) and Hillaree (Enneagram 6) explore how their strengths complement each other in the workplace. Shantelle brings bold ideas and initiative, while Hillaree carefully thinks things through and helps bring those ideas to life with precision and support. They reflect on the importance of building trust early in their working relationship, noting that both of their types are cautious about giving trust too quickly. Frequent check-ins and open communication have become a foundation of their collaboration, allowing them to navigate challenges, align on goals, and achieve results together.

This week, we talk with Gabe Pereyra, President and co-founder at Harvey, about his path from DeepMind and Google Brain to launching Harvey with Winston Weinberg; how a roommate's real-world legal workflows met early GPT-4 access and OpenAI backing; why legal emerged as the right domain for large models; and how personal ties to the profession plus a desire to tackle big societal problems shaped a mission to apply advanced AI where language and law intersect.Gabe's core thesis lands hard, “the models are the product.” Rather than narrow tools for single tasks, Harvey opted for a broad assistant approach. Lawyers live in text and email, so dialog becomes the control surface, an “AI associate” supporting partners and teams. Early demos showed useful output across many tasks, which reinforced a generalist design, then productized connections into Outlook and Word, plus a no-code Workflow Builder.Go-to-market strategy flipped the usual script. Instead of starting small, Harvey partnered early with Allen & Overy and leaders like David Wakeling. Large firms supplied layered review, which reduced risk from model errors and increased learning velocity. From there the build list grew, security and data privacy, dedicated capacity, links to firm systems, case law, DMS, data rooms, and eDiscovery. A matter workspace sits at the center. Adoption rises with surface area, with daily activity approaching seventy percent where four or more product surfaces see regular use. ROI work now includes analysis of write-offs and specialized workflows co-built with firms and clients, for example Orrick, A&O, and PwC.Talent, training, and experience value come next. Firms worry about job paths, and Gabe does not duck that concern. Models handle complex work, which raises anxiety, yet also shortens learning curves. Harvey collaborates on curricula using past deals, plus partnerships with law schools. Return on experience shows up in recruiting, PwC reports stronger appeal among early-career talent, and quality-of-life gains matter. On litigation use cases, chronology builders require firm expertise and guardrails, with evaluation methods that mirror how senior associates review junior output. Frequent use builds a mental model for where errors tend to appear.Partnerships round out the strategy. Research content from LexisNexis and Wolters Kluwer, work product in iManage and NetDocuments, CLM workflows via Ironclad, with plans for data rooms, eDiscovery, and billing. Vision extends to a complete matter management service, emails, documents, prior work, evaluation, billing links, and strict ethical walls, all organized by client-matter. Global requirements drive multi-region storage and controls, including Australia's residency rules. The forward look centers on differentiation through customization, firms encode expertise into models, workflows, and agents, then deliver outcomes faster and at software margins. “The value sits in your people,” Gabe says, and firms that convert know-how into systems will lead the pack.Listen on mobile platforms:  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ |  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[Special Thanks to ⁠Legal Technology Hub⁠ for their sponsoring this episode.] ⁠⁠⁠Email: geekinreviewpodcast@gmail.comMusic: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Jerry David DeCicca⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Transcript

Frequent mass shootings are a distinctly American problem, with news of another tragic shooting grabbing our attention every few weeks. Yet policy change is stalled.In this episode, we focus on an important reason for the congressional paralysis—the gun lobby. John Donohue, one of the country's leading experts on the empirical study of law and public policy, and Eric Baldwin, a research fellow at Stanford Law, join us for a discussion about their new research paper, "Another Shooting, Another Contribution From the Gun Lobby." They reveal how both gun rights and gun safety PACs flood competitive districts with donations in the wake of deadly shootings. The result? A high-stakes stalemate that helps preserve the status quo, despite overwhelming public support for measures like universal background checks. With Donohue's decades of scholarship on crime and policy and Baldwin's insights into political science and lobbying, the episode offers a timely look at how money and ideology shape one of the country's most polarizing debates and offers an examination of a grim reality: mass shootings have become more frequent, but meaningful reform rarely follows. Against the backdrop of rising political violence, the conversation probes the sometimes-surprising role of campaign donations and interest-group maneuvering in shaping what legislators do—or fail to do—after mass shooting tragedy.Links:John Donohue >>> Stanford Law pageEric Baldwin >>> Stanford Law pageTakuma Iwasaki >>> Stanford Law page“Financial Firepower: School Shootings and the Strategic Contributions of Pro-Gun Pacs” >>> Stanford Law pageConnect:Episode Transcripts >>> Stanford Legal Podcast WebsiteStanford Legal Podcast >>> LinkedIn PageRich Ford >>>  Twitter/XPam Karlan >>> Stanford Law School PageDiego Zambrano >>> Stanford Law School PageStanford Law School >>> Twitter/XStanford Lawyer Magazine >>> Twitter/X(00:00) Introductions and The Role of Different Gun Lobby Groups(10:01) Impact of Mass Shootings on Public Discourse (18:01) Political Reactions and Misinformation (25:01) Empirical Findings and Study Insights (30:01) Potential Changes in Public and Political Attitudes Towards Gun Violence Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Frequent floods blight the poorest neighbourhoods of New Orleans but the residents are fighting back, one yard at a time. Physicist Helen Czerski joins the team behind the Front Yard Initiative as they strive to keep the Big Easy safe and dry, 20 years after the devastation of Hurricane Katrina.When Katrina hit New Orleans in August 2005, the levees broke, 800,000 residents were forced out and 1800 people died. $14bn was spent on concrete and steel to rebuild the defences but the city still floods regularly. This water isn't coming from the Mississippi River sealed behind the new defences, it's coming from the skies. Sudden, violent rainstorms are becoming more frequent and the city's low income districts have notoriously inefficient drainage systems. The water lands on concrete and asphalt and quickly overwhelms the drains.The team behind the Front Yard Initiative is working, block by block, to help residents beat the floods by turning broken concrete into rainwater gardens. Native flowers and cheap, simple engineering are helping to transform neighbourhoods and attract new residents to the battered but beautiful home of jazz, gumbo and Mardi Gras.Image: An example of a front yard made into a rainwater garden, pictured with the owner and team behind front yard initiative.

Frequent guest, Lindsay Chervinsky, makes a late summer appearance to discuss Ten Books on the American Revolution. Ken Burns recently said the American Revolution was the most important event since the birth of Jesus. Our listeners have asked for advice about what to read as July 4, 2026, looms over American life. Lindsay is current with recent scholarship; Clay's approach is more biographical. They agreed that you cannot go wrong with Rick Atkinson's trilogy on the revolution, and reading anything by Joseph Ellis is great. Clay recommended Ellis's book Passionate Sage, on John Adams, while Lindsay recommended Founding Brothers. Listen to the podcast for lots more great book recommendations and their lively discussion.

Over 90% of chronic disease stems from one lie taught to doctors, dieticians, nutritionists, and personal trainers worldwide. Glucose is the body's preferred energy source! If glucose is so good for you, why does your body do everything it can to eliminate it from your blood?The average thin person has about 100,000 calories of stored fat and only 1,700 calories of glucose. When you consume sugar, it's removed from the blood very quickly, and the excess sugar is converted into fat. The body requires a small amount of glucose, but your body can make this small amount.The single root cause of chronic disease is high glucose! Blood sugar spikes create inflammation on the inside of the arteries, leading to chronically high insulin levels to remove the sugar. The body compensates with insulin resistance to slow down the glucose that enters the cells. Early symptoms of insulin resistance include:•Frequent urination at night•Brain fog•Loss of memory•Belly fat•Visual problems•Mood issues•Anxiety•Depression•Excessive hunger/cravings•Heart palpitations•Fluid retention in ankles and feet•Sleep apnea These initial symptoms can ultimately lead to diabetes, dementia, cataracts, glaucoma, and macular degeneration. People are not taught about the dangers of sugar and carbohydrates. In fact, most people aren't worried about their high-carbohydrate diet because the food pyramid tells us that we should consume 65% of our calories from carbohydrates. This is a lie! low-carb diet of less than 30 grams of carbs per day is one of the best things you can do to improve your health. One study showed a 90% success rate of ceasing insulin use in 10 weeks on a low-carb diet!The food industry has created the lie that glucose is the preferred fuel because you can profit the most from refined carbohydrates!Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.
