On today's episode Jerry joins PFT, Big T and Arian to discuss a conspiracy theory claiming that the world could lose 7 seconds of gravity. People are saying the reason for this anomaly is because of the intersection of two gravitational waves from black holes, predicted in 2019 with a probability of 94.7%. In addition, the guys get into Jerry's new computer, Venezuela and the Polymarket, college football and NIL deals, NFL coaching searches and much more. Enjoy!

I LOVE the yearly tradition that consumes my garage fridge every winter. We call it Beervent, and it’s more than just a box filled with a different beer that I get to open each day – it’s a piece of the holidays that can’t be skipped. It starts my days (though… I don’t always get to drink the day’s beer until later), and I’m not sure that Christmas would feel right without it. For this year, I thought it’d be fun to chat about my favorites, to break down some themes, and to fill you in on WHY you need to get one for yourself next year! It’s a solo episode, with a can of Northern Row’s Hustler Helles… crack one open and enjoy it with me! This Episode’s Links Volume 8, Episode 12 – Higher Gravity Talks Beervent In July

In 2026 a return to our core principles as a nation will be the paramount goal. Constraints on power are reasserting themselves. System memory returns. Back to the founder's concepts. Federalism by friction. Borders will be redrawn not in ink, but in practice. Somali's were targeted for specific reasons. We'll hear about currency zones and sovereignty blocks. Europe is changing fast too. UK won't dissolve but unity is weakening. The world sees old rules no longer apply. Conformity is unenforceable. The eighth and ninth Amendments will be key. Power will flow back to the states. This is basic political physics and not rebellion. The economic hardships are real. Traditional structure will win and systems will stop pretending. America 250 matters. Trump's statements on the new year give hints. He won't be around forever. Since 2013, the power has returned to the people. Ohio minimized it's own state's constitution and invited federal overreach. That's important. Empires last about 250 years. Traditional colonialism is returning. China security buildup happening in the Sahel. There's South America and aliens too. Hardships are lessons. So much reckoning is coming. Above it all, President Trump is slowly and carefully returning power to the people.

Are we seeing progress under Nuno, or is the eight-game winless run a sign of deeper issues? This week on The West Ham Breakdown, Jack and Darcy dive deep into tactical shifts, youth integration, and ask the ultimate question regarding Nuno: Stick or Twist? We break down the Brighton stalemate, how Paquetá's move to the left unlocks Jarrod Bowen's potential, and analyze another frustratingly late collapse against Fulham. Why are we struggling to see games out, and is it a personnel issue or a game management flaw?

Eleanor Russell joins us to discuss the mystical writings of French philosopher, Simone Weil. Published posthumously and edited by Gustave Thibon, Gravity and Grace is a collection of fragments from Weil's notebooks that sketch the core themes of her Christian mysticism in crisp, compact aphorisms. Weil did not set out to find God; instead, she was overwhelmed by a mystical experience of Christ's presence, after which her interests shifted from political philosophy to theology. Weil's Christian mysticism revolves around a central paradox: God's presence, truth, and love reveal themselves to the fullest only at the extremities of absence, suffering, and grief. In the same way, we can only experience Christ's radical love and redemptive suffering in solidarity with all those who are marginalized, oppressed, and enslaved. The result was a distinctive form of Christian mysticism that turned the tenets of Catholic orthodox on their head. Weil refused baptism out of her love for that which lies outside of the Church. She located Christ's apotheosis not in the resurrection but in his final cry of agony and despair, and she considered God's abandonment of this world to evil, affliction, and cruel fate to be a necessary condition of the Creation. In this episode, we discuss Weil's enigmatic, fragmentary masterpiece in order to understand that radical form of faith that only becomes possible in moments when God forsakes us and nothing shows itself as divine. Weil's words kindle a fire in dark times: “If we love God while thinking that he does not exist, he will manifest his existence.”Follow Eleanor on Twitter(X): @eleanoirPlease consider becoming a paying subscriber to our Patreon to get exclusive bonus episodes, early access releases, and bookish merch: https://www.patreon.com/MoralMinorityFollow us on Twitter(X).Devin: @DevinGoureCharles: @satireredactedEmail us at: moralminoritypod@gmail.com

Most men are chasing social clout when what they really need is social gravity. Clout is borrowed power. It only works as long as people are paying attention and deciding you matter. Gravity is owned power. It comes from discipline, energy, and presence, and it grows whether anyone is watching or not. In this episode, I break down why clout makes you fragile and why gravity is the kind of power you actually want. Show Notes: [02:34]#1 Clout requires attention.  [05:26]#2 Clout is borrowed, while gravity is owned. [09:09]#3 Clout is surface level stuff.  [13:05] Recap Next Steps: ⚡️ Power Presence Protocol  Command The Room Without Words → http://PowerPresenceProtocol.com

In which the walkers must make an unenviable choice - to descend, to escape, to rescue - or to be in time for lunch at the pub…   A modern Call of Cthulhu Scenario by Joseph Chance   Cast: Josephine Arundel – Belinda Cornish Chris Caldwell – Dan Wheeler Max Davenant – Danann McAleer Charlie Westenra – Dominic Allen Keeper of Arcane Lore ­– Joseph Chance   CW: This podcast contains mature themes, strong language and cosmic horror.

Like those burglar alarms that make no noise,that aren't audible to the trespasser, but sound somewhere else...when I feel invaded by thought,I close my eyes and I Hear.I hear this Silence sounding,and in that Emptiness,in that Quiet Space,help gets deployed,problems get solved,the right people show up.This Silence is the helper.It is the Comforter.It is Love.If you could just stop leaving this Love,if you could just stop forgetting to hear this Love,you'd start seeing changes.You'd start seeing yourself as Love,knowing only Love Is here,only this Weight,that has no form,that has no shape,that has no 'weight', is here.But here where you are, It's experienced as a Joyful Gravity,pulling what's for you,Destiny,into Your orbit.I Love you,NikSupport the show:▶▶https://www.patreon.com/goodmornings__________________________________________Today's Quotes:“For our present troubles are small and won't last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever!”-2 Corinthians 4:17 NLT"Your struggles are not because you didn't pray the right way or because you didn't pray enough, or because you have weak faith or insufficient intercessors. It is because God is using you in ways that you may not understand now, but one day you will. One day you will see how God used your affliction to prepare you for an incomparable weight of glory."-@Therealsweetspot Derrika Danielle"A million speak of love, yet how few know, True love is not to lose remembrance even for an instant."-Kabir"I used to think that in order to abide in Christ,I had to read my bible every day,pray everyday,and share my faith every single day.My abiding was depending on me doing something,but this is just wrong.Abiding in Christ is not another work that needs to be performed,but it's a reality to live in.In the same way that one lives in a house, and only need not leave in order to remain in the house,you are in Christ.

Cela s'est passé en 2013, l'année du triomphe de George Clooney avec Gravity. Un soir, il décide d'inviter ses 14 meilleurs amis dans un bon restaurant pour les remercier, car sans eux, il est persuadé qu'il ne serait pas arrivé à accomplir tout cela. Eux qui, depuis 35 ans l'ont aidé, à ses débuts quand il était en galère, en l'hébergeant ou en lui prêtant de l'argent. Ou plus tard quand il a eu, comme tout le monde, des moments plus difficiles. Mais en plus d'offrir le dîner, George Clooney va leur faire un autre cadeau inoubliable. Dans "Ah Ouais ?", Florian Gazan répond en une minute chrono à toutes les questions essentielles, existentielles, parfois complètement absurdes, qui vous traversent la tête.

In this episode, we explore groundbreaking developments in lunar colonization and the intriguing behaviors of interstellar visitors. We kick off with a bold announcement from Russia, revealing plans to construct a nuclear power plant on the Moon in collaboration with China, aiming for completion by 2036. This ambitious project signifies a shift towards sustainable human presence on the lunar surface. Next, we dive into a sci-fi-inspired innovation as Russia's Energia rocket company patents a spacecraft design featuring artificial gravity, a game-changer for long-duration space missions, potentially mitigating the adverse effects of zero gravity on astronauts.Shifting gears, we celebrate a significant achievement in satellite technology with the launch of Bluebird 6, a record-breaking satellite designed to provide broadband internet directly to smartphones, boasting the largest communication array ever deployed in low Earth orbit. However, not all news is positive, as Japan faces a setback with the failure of its H3 rocket during a critical mission to deliver the Michibiki 5 satellite, crucial for enhancing GPS accuracy in East Asia.Finally, we journey beyond our solar system to investigate the interstellar comet 3I ATLAS, which exhibits unusual behavior, including a rare sun-facing anti-tail and wobbling jets of outgassing material. This discovery provides insights into the comet's rotation, revealing its nucleus spins once every 15.5 hours.

In which our walking party feel sure they are encountering still stranger things: freak weather, sheltered defiles, terms of magic and perhaps that most horrible of imaginings: an immersive theatrical experience…   A modern Call of Cthulhu Scenario by Joseph Chance   Cast: Josephine Arundel – Belinda Cornish Chris Caldwell – Dan Wheeler Max Davenant – Danann McAleer Charlie Westenra – Dominic Allen Keeper of Arcane Lore ­– Joseph Chance   CW: This podcast contains mature themes, strong language and cosmic horror.  PLEASE BE AWARE - This episode contains the sound effect of a small child crying and description of threat to a child that some may find distressing.  As ever, human discretion is advised.   A Note on the Recording: This episode includes reference to a large and very successful British high-street pharmacy called Boots. It was common practice in the late 20th Century to develop one's photographs at Boots, often handing one's film to young female employees for the task. The equivalent in America might perhaps be CVS or Walgreens. In Japan, Yodobashi Camera would have served, Germany it would have been Rossman's. France of course favoured independent practitioners of the art. As ever, here at the Apocalypse Players, we advise that you use human discretion wherever you develop your photographs - be it at a high-street chain or in that little wooden cabin with the yellow front door, at the end of the lane where the marsh meets the sky…   The Apocalypse Players is an actual play (or live play) TTRPG podcast focused on horror tabletop roleplaying games. Think Dimension 20 or Critical Role, but fewer dragons, more eldritch horrors, and more British actors taking their roleplaying very seriously (most of the time). We primarily play the Chaosium RPG Call of Cthulhu, but have also been known to dabble with other systems, most of which can be found on our Patreon: www.patreon.com/apocalypseplayers We now have a free Discord server where you can come and worship at the altar of the Apocalypse, play Call of Cthulhu online, and meet like-minded cultists who will be only too eager to welcome you into the fold. New sacrifices - oops - we mean players are always welcome.

This is a quieter week and that feels deeply appropriate. Across many spiritual and faith traditions, this is a time of holy pause—a moment when outer striving softens and inner meaning comes forward.Rather than dramatic turning points, the sky invites integration:What has been learned this year?What is ready to be carried forward with greater maturity, honesty, and care?Tuesday, December 23: Venus in Sagittarius square Neptune in PiscesThis is a tender, permeable alignment—beautiful, but not always clear.Venus in Sagittarius seeks truth, meaning, and heartfelt enthusiasm.Neptune in Pisces dissolves boundaries, blurs edges, and opens us to longing, devotion, and compassion.Notice where idealism slips into projection—or where longing replaces discernment.This can show up as:Romanticizing a path, a belief, or a relationshipFeeling disoriented about values or directionConfusing spiritual yearning with actual alignmentThis aspect also opens deep compassion, poetic sensitivity, and soulful listening—especially when we resist the urge to decide too quickly. Let your values be informed by both heart and grounded truth.Reflection Question:Where am I being invited to soften my certainty without abandoning my discernment?Wednesday, December 24: Venus enters Capricorn (until January 17)As Venus moves from Sagittarius into Capricorn, the tone of relating and valuing changes noticeably. Capricorn is the sign of commitment, integrity and long-term responsibilityHere, love becomes less about possibility and more about presence.Values are no longer theoretical—they want to be lived.This is not cold or restrictive energy; it is maturing energy.Venus in Capricorn asks:What do I truly stand for?What am I willing to tend over time?What relationships, projects, and devotions are worth the effort?Choose what you are willing to build—not just what inspires you.Reflection Question:What values am I ready to embody more fully as we enter the new year?Saturday, December 27: Mercury in Sagittarius trine Chiron in AriesThis is a quietly powerful aspect—especially for reflection, conversation, and integration.Mercury in Sagittarius speaks in big-picture language: truth, meaning, and perspective. Chiron in Aries holds wounds around identity, courage, and the right to exist as oneself.Their harmonious trine supports:Healing conversationsReframing old narratives about who you areSpeaking truths that restore confidence rather than inflame painThis is not about fixing wounds—it's about finding language that honors the journey. Words can become medicine here, especially when they arise from lived experience rather than theory. Let your story carry wisdom, not self-judgment.Reflection Question:What truth am I now able to speak about myself that once felt too tender or risky?This is not a week for pushing forward. It's a week for listening, tending, and integrating. Let faith—however you define it—be something you inhabit, not perform.Podcast poem: Daybreak by Galway KinnellSupport the showGo to Sheila's website for information for transformational resources: https://www.ontheedgesofchange.com/home-page This episode was co-created with generative AI, engaged as a soul-aligned ally in service of transformation.

In this episode, we bid farewell to the interstellar comet 3I/Atlas as it completes its closest approach to Earth, offering a glimpse into a cosmic journey that spans billions of years. We discuss the Parker Solar Probe's remarkable 26th close approach to the Sun, where it continues to gather critical data about solar activity at a staggering speed of 430,000 miles per hour. In a more whimsical turn, we share the exciting news of a public contest to design a mascot for NASA's Artemis 2 mission, highlighting the incredible engagement from around the globe.Shifting gears, we delve into the enigma of luminous fast blue optical transients (LFBOTs), exploring a recent discovery that suggests these cosmic explosions may arise from massive black holes tearing apart companion stars. We also examine the potential threat posed by asteroid 2024 YR4, which has a small chance of impacting the Moon in 2032, potentially scattering debris into near-Earth space. Finally, we analyze Russia's revamped plans for its future in space, as it opts to repurpose aging modules from the International Space Station into a new national space station, raising questions about safety and scientific capabilities.### Timestamps & Stories01:05 –Story 1: Farewell to Interstellar Comet 3I/Atlas****Key Facts**- Comet 3I/Atlas made its closest approach to Earth, coming within 168 million miles.- It is only the third interstellar object detected passing through our solar system.03:20 – **Story 2: Parker Solar Probe's Close Approach****Key Facts**- The probe completed its 26th perihelion, flying just 3.8 million miles from the Sun.- It operated autonomously while gathering crucial data about solar activity.05:45 – **Story 3: NASA's Artemis 2 Mascot Contest****Key Facts**- NASA invited the public to design a zero gravity indicator for the Artemis 2 mission.- Thousands of submissions were received, with 25 finalists selected.08:00 – **Story 4: Understanding LFBOTs****Key Facts**- Recent findings suggest LFBOTs result from black holes shredding companion stars.- The energy emitted during these events is significantly higher than typical supernova explosions.10:15 – **Story 5: Potential Impact of Asteroid 2024 YR4****Key Facts**- There is a 4% chance that this building-sized asteroid will hit the Moon in 2032.- The impact could release energy equivalent to 400 times the Hiroshima bomb.12:00 – **Story 6: Russia's Future in Space****Key Facts**- Russia plans to repurpose the old ISS modules into a new national space station.- Concerns arise regarding the safety and maintenance of aging infrastructure.### Sources & Further Reading1. NASA2. James Webb Space Telescope3. Space.com4. European Space Agency5. NASA Solar System Exploration### Follow & ContactX/Twitter: @AstroDailyPodInstagram: @astrodailypodEmail: hello@astronomydaily.ioWebsite: astronomydaily.ioClear skies and see you next time!

Dear A-Rod, Please Come to Driveline: See How Data Helps Kids, Not Hurts ThemDeven opens with a deep dive into training ball flight over swing esthetics, explaining why paying attention to batted ball outcomes (line drives between 10-18 degrees) matters more than visual checkpoints. He breaks down gravity, drag, and descent angles to illustrate why "swing level" coaching sets kids up for failure. The episode pivots to A-Rod's viral Instagram video telling 4.4 million followers that 15-year-olds shouldn't chase launch angle, exit velo, or max effort, and should focus on "three pitches for strikes anytime you want" at Jamie Moyer velocity levels. Deven systematically dismantles this advice, arguing it's advocating for ignorance—telling kids to reach a destination without a map or compass. He explains why sub-competitive velocity with command doesn't play against college hitters, why exit velo paired with ideal launch angles equals relevancy, and why the "old days" of Greg Maddux and Jamie Moyer aren't coming back. Deven extends an open invitation for A-Rod to visit Driveline and see how data serves players rather than replacing coaching. The episode closes with personal reflection: telling his 16-year-old son "you can't win the race on this lap" after missing a velocity PR, connecting process over outcome to cross-sport application, and addressing travel ball trauma through a friend's panic attacks decades later.

“Models are still the bread and butter in gravity and magnetics interpretation. Interpreters still have to condition the data properly, and that's half technical, half art.” Betty Johnson shares how her early career in gravity and magnetics grew from curiosity, hands‑on learning, and rapidly changing technology. She explains how potential field methods remain valuable for addressing energy, water, and climate challenges because they are affordable, scalable, and deeply rooted in Earth's history.

Le Coq and Tartu Brewery, EstoniaABV: 9%"After the import traffic increased dramatically in the early 1900's. A. Le Coq was invited by the Tsarist government to brew his legendary Imperial Extra Double Stout within the Russian Empire. In 1912 the first Imperial Extra Double Stout left the Brewery in Tartu, the former province of Livonia, now Estonia. World War I and the Russian Revolution, however, brought a dramatic end to A. Le Coq's venture. Production ceased until 1921 and his brewery was nationalised by the Bolshevik government. The Facsimile label on each bottle of Imperial Extra double Stout pays homage to A. Le Coq without whom this classic style would never have reached its legendary place in the world of beers."The style Imperial Russian Stout and the name Albert Le Coq are synonymous.

In which a rare degree of de-escalation occurs, the map is brought forth, a signal is  sought for and the dreadful possibility of a rural, pub lunch kitchen closing early is discussed…   A modern Call of Cthulhu Scenario by Joseph Chance   Cast: Josephine Arundel – Belinda Cornish Chris Caldwell – Dan Wheeler Max Davenant – Danann McAleer Charlie Westenra – Dominic Allen Keeper of Arcane Lore ­– Joseph Chance   CW: This podcast contains mature themes, strong language and cosmic horror. This episode contains discussion of the results of extreme canine peril. As ever, human discretion is advised.   The Apocalypse Players is an actual play (or live play) TTRPG podcast focused on horror tabletop roleplaying games. Think Dimension 20 or Critical Role, but fewer dragons, more eldritch horrors, and more British actors taking their roleplaying very seriously (most of the time). We primarily play the Chaosium RPG Call of Cthulhu, but have also been known to dabble with other systems, most of which can be found on our Patreon: www.patreon.com/apocalypseplayers We now have a free Discord server where you can come and worship at the altar of the Apocalypse, play Call of Cthulhu online, and meet like-minded cultists who will be only too eager to welcome you into the fold.

We do have our favorite but surely wouldn't mind if Thomas Pynchon won the Nobel Prize too . . . and in Episode 32 we finish off 2025 by considering Shadow Ticket, the noir detective take on the 1930s by a writer who was surely a key influence on the early DeLillo (we read from an unpublished DeLillo letter summarizing that relationship) but who also seems to have been reading works like Running Dog over the years (or so we imagine in unpacking Shadow Ticket scenes invoking Chaplin and a “German Political Celebrity” named Hitler). We try to understand how Pynchon's latest examination of historical and potential fascism works in its 1932 setting, ranging from Milwaukee to Hungary, where reluctant protagonist and “sentimental ape” and “sap” Hicks McTaggart keeps adding on to his P.I. “tickets” in a strange search for a Wisconsin heiress and her Jewish musician lover but also what might ultimately be justice (a far from simple thing). Shadow Ticket is loads of serious fun, where Pynchon manages to examine the direst of turning points amidst scenes of bowling alley and motorcycle lore, dairy strikes, Prohibition's black markets, dance hall and speakeasy glamour, and something called “Radio-Cheez.” Bela Lugosi, vampires, a beautiful pig in a sidecar, and some of the most tasteless lamps in the world also play a role. The real content here for Hicks, though, is the prospect of spiritual and other forms of peace in a world where weapons from clubs to guns and submarines operate according to mysterious laws of “apport” and “asport,” occult material that interweaves with Hicks's strike-breaking past and raises connections to Gravity's Rainbow. Is Hicks's fellow orphan and young protégé Skeet Wheeler the father of Vineland's Zoyd, headed out to California as the novel ends? What's the meaning of Hicks failing to return to his home country, and what does cheese gangster Bruno Airmont's submarine fate have to do with Bleeding Edge? Are Hungary's shifting borders a new kind of “Zone”? What's going on in the novel's many Statue of Liberty references and its anachronistic allusions to a “Face Tube” for flirtation in bars? And how does this always funny writer, now in his late eighties, keep coming up with all these absurd songs (we sing some) and hilarious mock-movies like the one featuring “Squeezita Thickly” swimming in soup pots (Shirley Temple, is that you?)? Teasing out many connections to Gravity's Rainbow, Against the Day, and Vineland, this episode makes reference to just about all of Pynchon's other works, including even V. and his earliest short stories. At the same time, you need come to it with nothing but an interest in Pynchon's life and work. We doubt that we get every reference to history or previous Pynchon right or mount interpretations we won't later want to revise, but on this brand-new and captivating late work from a masterful author, we hope in nearly three hours of deep conversation and laughter that we've made a good start on the many critical readings to come. A partial list of references and quotations that we mention or paraphrase in this episode . . . On “prefascist twilight”: “And other grandfolks could be heard arguing the perennial question of whether the United States still lingered in a prefascist twilight, or whether that darkness had fallen long stupefied years ago, and the light they thought they saw was coming only from millions of Tubes all showing the same bright-colored shadows. One by one, as other voices joined in, the names began, some shouted, some accompanied by spit, the old reliable names good for hours of contention, stomach distress, and insomnia – Hitler, Roosevelt, Kennedy, Nixon, Hoover, Mafia, CIA, Reagan, Kissinger, that collection of names and their tragic interweaving that stood not constellated above in any nightwide remoteness of light, but below, diminished to the last unfaceable American secret, to be pressed, each time deeper, again and again beneath the meanest of random soles, one blackly fermenting leaf on the forest floor that nobody wanted to turn over, because of all that lived, virulent, waiting, just beneath.” (Pynchon, Vineland (1990)) On “second sheep”: “Our common nightmare The Bomb is in there too. It was bad enough in '59 and is much worse now, as the level of danger has continued to grow. There was never anything subliminal about it, then or now. Except for that succession of the criminally insane who have enjoyed power since 1945, including the power to do something about it, most of the rest of us poor sheep have always been stuck with simple, standard fear. I think we all have tried to deal with this slow escalation of our helplessness and terror in the few ways open to us, from not thinking about it to going crazy from it. Somewhere on this spectrum of impotence is writing fiction about it.” (Pynchon, “Introduction,” Slow Learner (1984)) The “Sloth essay paragraph” mentioned midway through: “In this century we have come to think of Sloth as primarily political, a failure of public will allowing the introduction of evil policies and the rise of evil regimes, the worldwide fascist ascendancy of the 1920's and 30's being perhaps Sloth's finest hour, though the Vietnam era and the Reagan-Bush years are not far behind. Fiction and nonfiction alike are full of characters who fail to do what they should because of the effort involved. How can we not recognize our world? Occasions for choosing good present themselves in public and private for us every day, and we pass them by. Acedia is the vernacular of everyday moral life.” (Pynchon, “Nearer, My Couch, To Thee” (1993)) Don DeLillo Papers, Harry Ransom Center, University of Texas-Austin The Motherland Calls statue, Volgograd: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Motherland_Calls  Pareidolia defined: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareidolia

Dr. Brennan Spiegel, Director of Health Services Research at Cedars-Sinai and Professor of Medicine and Public Health at UCLA, author of the book Pull, explains why illness is often a failure to manage gravity. He describes how our relationship with gravity defines strength, balance, digestion, mental stability, and emotional health.  Take the Gravotype Quiz at BrennanSpiegelMD.com to identify how your body manages gravity. Key Insights and Action Steps — Dr. Brennan Spiegel "Every single cell of your body evolved from this force of gravity. Physics came first, and biology came second." Illness arises when we fail to manage gravity. Every organ, tendon, and cell depends on that relationship. "When you stand up straight and lift your diaphragm, it pulls up this sack of potatoes that we all have in our belly. When you open up the gut, it opens up digestion." Posture determines how well the gut, diaphragm, and circulation function. Sitting compresses digestion and lowers energy. "Your balance and relationship to gravity is a predictor of how long you're going to live." Balance, grip strength, and posture are measurable indicators of longevity. "The inner ear is like a gyroscope constantly keeping track of your position in relation to gravity." The nervous system continuously measures gravity. Inner-ear disturbances can create dizziness, anxiety, and panic. "When you're depressed, you can't get up out of bed. Your body is slumped over. It's almost like there's so much gravity pulling on your body, it's like you're in a black hole." Depression mirrors an excessive gravitational load. Emotional heaviness is a physical experience of being pulled down. "Strong negative emotional experiences can permanently change the way the brain forms… the mind has learned to be pulled down emotionally, physically, socially." Childhood trauma reshapes how the brain perceives gravity, making the body feel heavier and slower to rise. "The feet are a gravity management surface… only five percent of the body's surface area but holding one hundred percent of the weight." Feet are the interface between body and planet. Strengthening them restores alignment and balance. "Your relationship to the planet, both latitudinally and altitudinally, will determine your health." Altitude, light, and environment influence serotonin, immunity, and microbiome function. "Serotonin itself is a gravity management substance." Serotonin regulates mood and physical stability, linking emotional and gravitational balance. "When it's stimulated, it activates the rest and digest phase and helps release serotonin." The vagus nerve is the primary connection between body and mind, calming the system and improving serotonin flow. "I pretended I was on a bigger planet… I became stronger and stood up straighter." Carrying additional resistance through weighted movement improves posture, strength, and metabolism. "When we lay down to sleep, we give our body a break… the blood easily flows into our brain and flushes out amyloid." Sleep restores gravitational equilibrium and supports brain recovery. "Gravity doesn't change, but your relationship to gravity does." Long-term health depends on strengthening that relationship physically, mentally, and emotionally. Action Items from Dr. Brennan Spiegel  1. Identify your gravotype. Take the 16-question quiz at BrennanSpiegelMD.com to learn which of the eight gravotypes you belong to and how your body manages gravity. 2. Build gravity fortitude. Strengthen the muscles and bones that keep you upright — especially your back, core, and legs. "When you stand up straight and lift your diaphragm, it pulls up the gut and opens digestion." 3. Stand tall and move often. Avoid long hours of sitting. Use a standing desk or take frequent standing breaks. Sitting compresses the abdomen, slows digestion, and reduces serotonin. 4. Strengthen the diaphragm and posture daily. Practice standing with shoulders back and chin level to engage the diaphragm and improve breathing and gut function. 5. Train your balance. Test and improve balance by standing on one leg, walking heel-to-toe, or using a balance board. "Your balance and relationship to gravity is a predictor of how long you're going to live." 6. Practice grip and hanging strength. Hang from a bar daily. Aim for 30 seconds, then increase gradually toward 2 minutes. Even short "dead hangs" improve shoulder, spine, and nervous-system alignment. 7. Use light weighted resistance. Try a weighted vest or light ankle weights while walking or doing chores. "I pretended I was on a bigger planet… I became stronger and stood up straighter." 8. Walk, run, or train barefoot or in minimalist shoes (safely). Let the feet feel the ground to activate stabilizing muscles. "When you ground your foot, everything else pulls up straight from there." 9. Reconnect with the ground. Spend time standing or walking on natural surfaces (grass, sand, earth) when possible. 10. Stay hydrated. Keep enough fluid in your body to "pump blood and oxygen up into the brain." Dehydration weakens gravity tolerance and causes dizziness or fatigue. 11. Regulate the nervous system. Do slow, controlled breathing through pursed lips to stimulate the vagus nerve and calm the body. "Slow meditative breathing activates the rest-and-digest phase." 12. Consider gentle vagus-nerve stimulation. Use only safe methods such as breathing, humming, or medical devices under supervision. Avoid carotid massage unless advised by a doctor. 13. Strengthen vestibular and proprioceptive awareness. Engage activities that challenge coordination: yoga, dance, gymnastics, tai chi, or balance training. 14. Manage mental gravity. Notice emotional heaviness as a physical sensation; practice posture, breathing, and grounding to counteract "mental black holes." 15. Use awe and nature to elevate mood. Spend time in nature, watch sunsets, or listen to music that evokes awe. "Feeling part of something greater than yourself elevates mood and serotonin." 16. Increase natural serotonin. Seek sunlight, exercise outdoors, connect socially, and reduce processed foods. Serotonin helps both mood and muscle tone to "fight gravity physically and mentally." 17. Optimize sleep for gravitational recovery. Sleep 7–8 hours flat or slightly inclined if you have reflux. Avoid heavy meals within 2 hours of sleep. Limit screens before bed. "When we lay down to sleep, we give our body a break… the blood easily flows into our brain." 18. Manage reflux and digestion. If prone to reflux, raise the head of the bed about 10 degrees or use a wedge pillow. Sleep on your left side to reduce acid reaching the esophagus. 19. Support circulation through movement. Use your muscles as pumps, walk regularly, stretch calves, and move legs during travel or desk work to prevent stagnation. 20. Avoid chronic compression. Reduce time bent over laptops or phones; keep screens at eye level to protect diaphragm and digestion. 21. Engage with natural environments. Nature exposure increases serotonin and improves gravity resilience. "Being in green spaces is mood-elevating because that's what we evolved with." 22. Monitor environment and altitude. If you live or work at high altitude, be mindful of mood or sleep changes and adjust oxygen exposure and sunlight time. 23. Balance convenience with movement. Spiegel warns that modern comfort, constant sitting, processed food, artificial environments, represents "our species losing the battle against gravity." 24. Reframe health. Adopt the mindset that "gravity doesn't change, but your relationship to gravity does."

People are naturally drawn to you when you have it, just like gravity pulls everything to the ground. In this episode, I break down the physics of masculine gravity. I explain how presence works like gravity—it doesn't push, it pulls. I share how men can develop this magnetic force in themselves to command attention and respect without trying. By the end, you'll understand how to be naturally powerful and present. Show Notes: [02:49]#1 Masculine gravity is silent but felt.  [07:16]#2 Gravity itself organizes everything around it.
