In the case of an overdose, a person stops breathing long before most of us realize what is happening. That is why our mantra is simple and urgent: call 911 and give naloxone. We walk step by step through recognizing an opioid overdose, using nasal naloxone in under a minute, and staying safe while you help. You do not need a medical degree to save a life; you need a clear plan, Naloxone, and the courage to act when someone will not wake up.We break down how opioids shut down the brain's breathing center and why unresponsiveness plus poor breathing should trigger immediate action. You will learn the key visual cues, when pinpoint pupils help and when mixed drugs blur the picture, and why naloxone is still a smart move even if alcohol or other substances are involved. We also confront stigma head-on, separating withdrawal management from life-saving priorities, and share a powerful ER story where Naloxone rescued a patient from an overdose in minutes.Fentanyl demands new habits. We explain why it often takes multiple naloxone sprays, debunk fears about casual skin contact, and outline a compact PPE kit—mask, eye protection, nitrile gloves—to protect against airborne powder or accidental transfer. We cover re-overdose risks when naloxone wears off, the critical role of EMS observation, and practical tips on storage, expiration, and keeping naloxone in your glove box or bag. Along the way, we highlight Good Samaritan protections that reduce fear of calling for help, so more people step forward when it counts.If you care about harm reduction, community safety, and giving people a second chance, this guide is for you. Hit follow, share this episode with a friend who should carry naloxone, and leave a quick review so more people learn how to act when seconds matter.To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

The story we've been told about cannabis—safe, simple, and mostly benign—doesn't match what we're seeing at the bedside. Two ER-turned-addiction doctors pull back the curtain on how high-potency products can quietly undercut psychiatric meds, complicate procedural sedation, and nudge recovery off course even when everything else looks better. This isn't a panic piece; it's a practical guide to staying safer and getting more from treatment.We start with psychiatry and a pattern that's easy to miss: chronic cannabis use can upregulate ABC transporters along the gut, liver, and blood-brain barrier, pushing certain antipsychotics and mood meds out of cells faster and blunting their effect. What looks like “noncompliance” may be pharmacology. We talk through which agents lean on these transporters, which alternatives may perform better, and how to have a stigma-free conversation that protects trust while fixing the plan.Then we roll into the procedure room. Heavy cannabis use can decrease sensitivity to propofol and other sedatives by altering GABA activity and endocannabinoid tone, often requiring higher doses and tighter monitoring. Add a lesser-known risk—post-propofol hypersalivation in frequent users—and disclosure becomes a safety tool. We share exactly what to tell anesthesia, what clinicians can prepare for, and how to keep airways protected without surprises.Finally, we examine the “Cali sober” idea through data, not dogma. Large cohort studies link cannabis use to higher rates of alcohol recurrence and new substance use disorders over time, especially with potent concentrates. We cover why potency and pattern matter, how cannabis can dampen the gains of CBT, MI, and contingency management, and what a realistic harm reduction path looks like when abstinence isn't the first stop. Throughout, we keep language careful—reported use, not admitted; return to use, not relapse—because words shape trust.If you care for patients, care about someone in recovery, or care about your own health, this conversation offers a clear framework: ask better questions, match meds to biology, and align goals to protect progress.

1311. El podcast oficial de Percy Jackson es uno de esos casos que no suelo traer muy a menudo a este lado del micrófono, porque no es habitual que una plataforma de streaming acierte de lleno (o casi) cuando decide lanzar un podcast asociado a una de sus series, pero cuando ocurre, creo que merece la pena detenerse y analizarlo.Todo empezó de forma casual, con una mención en Twitter de David Carretero señalándome una publicación que anunciaba la llegada de podcasts a Disney+. De primeras pensé que no era especialmente novedoso, porque no es la primera plataforma que incluye podcast en su catálogo, ni tampoco la primera vez que se hace algo parecido alrededor de una serie de ficción. Netflix ya ha experimentado con ello y Filmin también tiene algún ejemplo, así que la noticia, por sí sola, no daba para un episodio entero. El matiz importante llegó al investigar un poco más el caso concreto del podcast oficial de Percy Jackson y los dioses del Olimpo. Aquí no estamos hablando de un simple refrito promocional ni de un audio sin alma subido para cubrir expediente. Estamos ante un podcast bien producido, pensado como complemento real a la serie y, sobre todo, respetuoso con el formato podcast. Para poner un poco de contexto, Percy Jackson es una saga juvenil con millones de seguidores en todo el mundo, varios libros, películas y ahora una serie en Disney+. Aprovechando el estreno de la segunda temporada, la plataforma decidió acompañar los ocho episodios de la serie con ocho episodios de su podcast oficial, algo que, bien hecho, tiene muchísimo sentido como estrategia de acompañamiento y fidelización. Uno de los grandes aciertos es quién presenta el podcast. No es una voz genérica ni un locutor externo, sino Aryan Simhadri, uno de los actores de la serie, que interpreta a Grover. A esto se suma la participación de Jason Mantzoukas, que en la ficción da vida a Dionisio, y del resto del reparto principal. Esto refuerza la conexión con el universo narrativo y aporta una coherencia que muchas veces se pierde en este tipo de productos. Pero si hay un detalle que realmente me llamó la atención es el doblaje al español. El podcast no solo existe en inglés, sino que también está doblado, algo poco habitual y que demuestra una intención clara de llegar a la audiencia internacional cuidando la experiencia. Además, el contenido puede consumirse fuera de Disney+, en abierto, lo que convierte al podcast en una herramienta de marketing muy potente sin encerrar al oyente dentro de la plataforma. No todo es perfecto, claro. El audio en español no está disponible fuera de Disney+ y ahí hay una oportunidad perdida. Aun así, el planteamiento general me parece un acierto y un ejemplo de cómo una plataforma puede hacer podcasting sin cargarse el formato. Ojalá este caso sirva para que otras plataformas aprendan que hacer un buen podcast no va de subir audios porque sí, sino de entender el medio, respetarlo y usarlo con criterio.Percy Jackson and the Olympians Official Podcasthttps://pod.link/1860187546Percy Jackson y los dioses del Olimpo (latino)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0aNkZ7akew_____________Consigue tu entrada para el directo de 'Contando Kilómetros Podcast' el 28 de marzo en las Podnights Madrid a través de Eventbritehttps://www.eventbrite.es/e/1980175107050?aff=oddtdtcreator_____________ ¡Gracias por pasarte 'Al otro lado del micrófono' un día más para seguir aprendiendo sobre podcasting!

Sleep doesn't break because you forgot how to close your eyes. It breaks when anxiety trains your brain to stay on guard, and when quick fixes like alcohol, cannabis, or OTC sleep aids sedate you without restoring you. We team up with Australian psychologist and author Helen Dugdale to unpack how insomnia forms, why 3 a.m. wakeups become a habit loop, and the practical, evidence‑based steps that rebuild real rest—especially for people in recovery.Helen shares how anxiety sits at the core of most sleep problems and why the brain's plasticity is our greatest ally. We dig into Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT‑I) basics—aligning with circadian rhythm, setting simple pre‑bed routines, and replacing catastrophic thoughts with repeatable behaviors—and explore how Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) calms trauma so sleep skills can finally land. Expect concrete tactics: caffeine cutoffs tied to bedtime, screen boundaries that don't feel punitive, mantras that redirect attention, breathing and counting that occupy mental space, and progressive muscle relaxation you can run anywhere, even in a noisy room with the lights on.We also address the realities people with addiction face: unstable housing, tight budgets, caregiving, and long days that drain executive function. You'll hear how to build micro‑habits that fit into crowded lives—thirty seconds while the kettle boils, one minute before starting the car, seven minutes as “0.5% of your day.” We talk timelines for progress, what to do on rough days when HALT hits, and how to bounce back from relapse without shame. The throughline is hope: you are worth the effort, and repetition rewires nights. If you're ready to trade quick fixes for deep, durable rest, this conversation gives you a blueprint you can start tonight.Subscribe, share with a friend who needs better sleep, and leave a review with the one habit you'll try first. Your feedback helps others find the show.To learn more about Helen's work: https://australianbraincoaching.com.auTo contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

We're headed on the road in 2026! Buy tickets here:https://www.x1entertainment.com/bttb"You and I are white trash because we say the F-word, but Kira is better than that...she has a criminal record but whatever. She just said the F-word 10 times!" Well fortunately for our lovely Bitches, Kira is in the hot seat on the second half of "Wild Wild West Coast Pt 2." After a couple weeks of threats, Tracey is finally delivering on her promise to oust Kira from the ALDC by exposing her past legal troubles, but will it be enough to actually secure Sarah R a more permanent spot on the team over Kalani?As the ALDC make their final LA hurrah at Starbound they run into a bit of a problem, their dances just aren't it! Between tired choreography and some out of date references, its hard to imagine any of the dances making a strong impression compared to the more intense LA dancers in attendance. Worst of all is the bizarre choice to paint JoJo and Mackenzie in black and white for their I Love Lucy homage, managing to make the two look more like corpses than Lucy and Ethel. To add insult to injury their music shuts off mid-performance... so is that just an intentional sabotage at this point? How did it keep happening!?But while the girls are struggling to make some noise on stage, the moms certainly are making noise behind the scenes. Abby threatened that not all the girls would be returning to Pittsburgh with the ALDC, and Tracey decides the best way to make her case is by taking out the competition. She begins to hurl insults and accusations at Kira, bringing up not only the fact she'd been charged with fraud for running an eBay scheme, but also claims she was arrested for credit card fraud! Shouting of course ensues. But honestly? Abby still seems more upset over Holly's perceived betrayal from a few days prior, and technically the MattyB incident is still on the horizon because that stuff all goes down AFTER the competition. So for all of Tracey's efforts, it would seem she might have played her cards just a little too late, or maybe there really is not stopping the Kalani train if she's one of Abby's favorites.Quotes“[The Bitchettes] know it's a good episode when you start talking in your Grover voice." (14:39-14:43 | Christi)“Jess says she's really sick of Abby going on and on about Maddie. Well Jess, girlfriend, you just got there eight episodes ago so buckle up." (18:48-18:57 | Christi & Kelly)“She cans hove Radio Disney up her ass, and Kelly really does means that!" (47:14-47:18 | Christi)“We lost to ourselves. It was made out that we lost to a better dance... that our kids did!"

What if opioid withdrawal could visibly ease in 20 minutes and cravings could drop to near zero within days? We sit down with Net Recovery CEO Joe Winston to unpack a wearable neuromodulation device, FDA-cleared for managing opioid withdrawal, that adapts to real-world drug trends and may restore a person's ability to choose. Joe traces an unexpected journey from aerospace and AI to building a handheld system that translates complex waveform expertise into accessible care—and shares how rigorous trials and peer-reviewed data convinced skeptics.We dive into how the device works: gel electrodes behind the ears deliver patterned stimulation that dynamically shifts based on daily assessments of opioid, sedative, and stimulant withdrawal. As supplies change—think xylazine-adulterated fentanyl or emerging veterinary sedatives—the team retools waveforms to meet the moment. The results are striking: measurable relief within an hour, average treatment of three to four days, and early evidence that many patients reduce use of opioids and psychostimulants for months post-treatment, even without medication. That renewed agency becomes the catalyst for aftercare, longer residential stays, and more consistent engagement.Access and scale matter as much as science. We explore delivery in jails where Medicaid interruptions worsen withdrawal, residential programs, and new office-based addiction treatment designed for privacy and minimal life disruption. We also tackle safety and harm reduction—falling tolerance raises overdose risk if someone returns to old doses—and clarify patterns of lapse versus relapse observed in follow-ups. Beyond clinics, Joe lays out a bold public-health vision: statewide jail deployments measured against overdoses, all-cause mortality, and re-arrest. It's a practical, humane plan to meet people where they are and move addiction care forward with data, transparency, and stories of real recovery.If this conversation resonates, follow the show, share it with a colleague, and leave a quick rating.

Join us for this episode which is a fast, honest tour through what ketamine can actually do for mental health—without the hype. We sit down with addiction psychiatrist Dr. Mark Hrymoc to unpack where the evidence is strongest, who qualifies, and why IV ketamine often produces quicker relief than nasal esketamine when depression won't budge. From treatment-resistant depression and acute suicidality to anxiety and PTSD, we dig into the protocols that matter: six-session inductions, customized maintenance, and practical strategies for measuring progress with tools like the PHQ-9.We pull back the curtain on how ketamine works at the receptor level—NMDA antagonism, downstream dopamine effects, and BDNF-driven neuroplasticity—and explain why dissociation may help some patients but isn't required for benefit. You'll hear how we screen candidates, manage blood pressure, reduce nausea, and set up sessions with eye masks, ambient music, and a nurse at the bedside so the experience is safe, focused, and grounded. We also get real about addiction risk, clarifying the difference between recreational use and a carefully monitored medical protocol, and how stable recovery timelines factor into clinical decision-making.For PTSD and anxiety, we explore pairing ketamine with psychotherapy and post-session integration to turn insights into change. We compare IV ketamine's dosing flexibility with Spravato's structured pathway, talk costs and coverage, and outline how to taper other meds only after sustained stability. Looking ahead, we spotlight promising research directions—from extending response with adjuncts to early signals for substance use disorders—and why interventional psychiatry is opening a much-needed chapter beyond traditional antidepressants. If you've wondered whether ketamine is a bridge or a destination, this conversation gives you a clear, practical map.

Greg Alba & Tara Erickson react to Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 2, Episode 8 — the epic season finale, as the Disney+ series brings the Sea of Monsters storyline to a climactic, prophecy-shifting conclusion. With Camp Half-Blood on the brink of destruction and Cronos's manipulation finally laid bare, this episode delivers large-scale action, major mythological reveals, and lasting consequences for Percy and his friends. After an emotional parting with his mother, Percy, Annabeth, Grover, and Tyson sneak back into Camp Half-Blood in an attempt to help get the Golden Fleece to Thalia's tree. Standing in their way is Luke, jilted from Cronos's influence & deception, leading a makeshift army of monsters & demigods to burn Camp Half-Blood to the ground, forcing Percy into another emotionally charged confrontation that tests loyalty, destiny, and free will as an all-out battle breaks loose at the camp. The chaos culminates with Clarisse reaching Thalia's tree with the Golden Fleece, only to trigger a massive blast resurrecting Thalia... In the aftermath, Percy experiences a powerful dream-vision with his father Poseidon, confirming the Titans have been freed & enlisting Percy and Tyson's help in the war to come. Later, a reinstated Chiron recounts the truth of Thalia's past and the message once delivered to her by the Furies. The episode's final revelations land hard when Zeus (Courtney B. Vance – The People v. O.J. Simpson) is revealed as Thalia's father, attempting—and failing—to bend her toward the prophecy and his protection.

Dennis welcomes Hall of Fame baseball writer Paul Hoynes in studio. In the third part, Dennis and Paul discuss the 1990 World Series earthquake and the beginning of the Indians mid 90's run that introduced the city to Grover, Manny, Albert, and Kenny.

In this episode of the Hospitable Hosts podcast, we speak with Marisa Grover, a seasoned property manager and community leader in the short-term rental space. Marisa shares her journey of managing around 50 properties through her company, Simply Stay, and discusses the importance of building systems and workflows for hosts. She emphasizes the need for documentation and standard operating procedures (SOPs) to streamline operations and reduce burnout, especially as hosts scale their businesses. Marisa also highlights the significance of community support for hosts, encouraging them to connect with others in the industry to share insights and resources.For more information, go to: https://withmarisa.co/Timestamps:0:00 - Introduction1:37 - Community for hosts3:07 - Common operational pain points5:20 - The importance of systems9:50 - When to implement software solutions12:00 - Picking the right tools17:15 - Scaling to multiple properties19:15 - Quick-fire questions

Parenting can sharpen joy and stress at the same time—and for moms and dads in recovery, that edge can test every habit that keeps sobriety strong. We sit down with Sarah Benton, licensed counselor, addiction specialist, and author of Parents in Recovery, to unpack how families can protect recovery without sacrificing the warmth and wonder of raising kids. From morning routines to packed weekends to those birthday parties where wine shows up next to the cupcakes, we get practical about limits, language, and the lifestyle choices that prevent burnout.Sarah explains why “recovery first” isn't selfish—it's the foundation that keeps everything else standing. We explore the high-functioning myth, where substances quietly enable overloaded schedules, and what happens when you remove the “checkout” at day's end. Expect candid talk on right-sizing commitments, navigating the dip of post-acute withdrawal, and building a toolbox that actually works: therapy, meetings, peer support, and simple rituals for rest. We also dive into partner dynamics, from two parents in recovery to mixed households, and the education and respect that make those setups sustainable.Prevention gets the spotlight too. Genetics raise the stakes, and delaying a teen's first drink past 15 meaningfully lowers risk. We share how to start honest conversations by middle school, present family history without shame, and set boundaries around alcohol and cannabis in social spaces. You'll hear real-world scripts, ways to model “social battery” limits at home, and strategies to swap FOMO for intention. By the end, you'll have a clear map for turning recovery into a steady family culture—one that keeps parents connected and kids grounded.If this conversation helped, follow the show, leave a quick review, and share it with someone who needs a practical, hopeful roadmap for parenting in recovery.To learn more about Sarah's work:www.bentonbhc.comwww.waterviewbh.comTo contact Dr. Grover:ammmadeeasy@fastmail.com 

For its 300th episode, Where Brains Meet Beauty highlights two women who prove that creative careers rarely follow a straight line. Celebrity hairstylist and makeup artist Sarai Martinez and influencer and UGC creator Tania Grover share how childhood dreams, unexpected pivots and sheer perseverance shaped the paths they are on today.Sarai always knew she wanted to be a hairstylist, even drafting a sixth grade project imagining her future salon career. But family expectations and finances pushed her into fashion school, then insurance work, then years of assisting in high-end Boston salons on late nights and little pay. Marriage, kids and discouraging mentors led to a long break before she rebuilt her confidence, found supportive leadership and stepped back into artistry full-time. Today she works with prestige clients, balances her “Sarai by Day” influencer presence and stays grounded by choosing collaboration over diva moments on set.Tania's journey started in high school with dance videos she posted “for fun” until brands began sliding into her DMs. Content creation followed her through college ambassador gigs, paid brand deals and internships she earned through her TikTok skills. Still, she keeps a full-time tech job that offers stability and flexibility while she builds her creator career. Her schedule is relentless - early mornings filming, editing during commutes, posting across multiple accounts but she thrives on the structure and maintains tight creative control, supported by a manager who handles negotiations.Both women talk openly about burnout, comparison, the pressure to constantly post and the often hidden emotional labor behind both artistry and influencing. Their shared message: trust your path, turn the detours into fuel, and don't underestimate the power of a “practical” job to give you freedom, options and the confidence to say no.

Prophecy Radio episode #152 offers wooly thoughts alongside a discussion of Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, episode 6, “Nobody Gets the Fleece.” There's also some news to discuss, as well as a recap of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians Official Podcast, which features guests Aleks Pauvnoic, Albert Kim, and the incomparable Andrew McIlroy. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air every other week. All discussions are PG-13.News and Updates (00:05:44) Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2 has debuted with strong numbers according to The Wrap. We can't help but mention Pluribus, as it seems everyone is watching it at the moment. Did you know there's an official Percy Jackson and the Olympians shop now? You can also get some great merch at Hot Topic! Did you catch the beautiful birthday message to Walker from his dad? There's no Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 4 renewal news, but they ARE working on it at the moment. We channel a little Positive Patty and/or Optimistic Olivia energy and talk about the chances of getting seasons 4 and 5. Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, episode 6 discussion (00:14:52) Let's kick off the episode 6 discussion with Tyson in the water. Daniel Diemer does such a good job of getting Tyson's thoughts and feelings across while underwater. RAINBOW TO THE RESCUE. Percy has a pretty awful dream about Camp. It looks like Kronos is dropping by, but when the hood is pulled back it's someone else. Why do you think they showed Thalia in this scene? How does Percy know what she looks like? Percy wants to get a head start on their plan, but Annabeth remains calm and tells him that's not a good idea. Back on the island, Polyphemus regales Clarisse and Grover with tales of his solitary life. Shoutout to Nobody. They made Polyphemus SO MUCH SCARIER than he was in the books. We keep hearing Pan's name. Percy keeps watch while Annabeth grabs some pelts. Luke interrupts with some rainbow wiggles. Annabeth admits Luke might be right about Thalia's feelings about Zeus, but he was also wrong to think she'd be on Kronos' side. This part wasn't in the book, but it's such a great addition. Percy has a dramatic entrance. Was he worried that Annabeth might be betraying him? Was the call about recon or about checking in on Annabeth? “Think wooly thoughts.” Those sheep sounds were pretty legit. Plot twist! Polyphemus set a trap for the demigods. We get a classic Clarisse and Percy moment. Annabeth uses that big brain of hers to distract Polyphemus. Luke uses a portal to travel to the island, and Karen has some questions about the science of the magic. Shoutout to the makeup department because Annabeth's wounds looked BRUTAL. All seems lost…until Tyson returns! Did Percy understand what they said in Ancient Greek? How did Tyson get one up on Polyphemus? Luke arrives at the worst or possibly even the best time. Percy really did try to come up with a different solution than just handing over the fleece. Were we surprised Luke healed Annabeth? How do we feel about the changes from the book here? Tyson saves the day AGAIN, and Percy is so glad he's alive. And like the wish-granting fairy that he is, Tyson has a solution to their problem of no transportation. Percy gets yet another epic line to end the episode. Next time: Young Annabeth, a recovering sarcophagus, Clarisse liking her odds, and BLACKJACK!! Percy Jackson and the Olympians Official Podcast highlights (01:25:15) Aryan and Aleks are in divorce arbitration, and Andrew makes his big debut on the podcast. But first we need to talk about what is was like to play Polyphemus. This is not the first time Aleks has been a cyclops in a Percy Jackson production. Did you realize they did mostly practical effects for Polyphemus? What character inspired the “simple” version of Polyphemus? Did you know what forced perspective was? Which did you like better, the proposal or the prom pictures? The second guest on the podcast was Albert Kim, one of the series' writers. They wanted to surprise even the most diehard fans of the books. We talk about Percy's fatal flaw, and his reaction to giving up the fleece. It's no surprise the sheep were afraid of Polyphemus. Aryan finally gets his ring! Andrew McIlroy returns to talk about his experience on the show so far. It was interesting hearing how they “found” Tyson and Teen!Luke. Kronos is totally a cult leader. We get some insight into how the kids prepare for each scene, including an example of the exercise with the ball that they do to get into character. Why doesn't Andrew go to any of the functions? Where did his commitment to the craft come from? Everyone has such respect for Glynn Turman.

In 50 jaar Margreet Dolman blikt Paul Haenen terug op het eigenzinnige personage dat al decennialang een vaste plek inneemt in de Nederlandse cultuur. Het boek schetst een portret van Margreet Dolman als scherpzinnige observator, trooster en provocateur, die met humor en emotie reageert op de wereld om haar heen. Aan de hand van markante momenten laat Haenen zien hoe Dolman steeds opnieuw grenzen verkent en tegelijk het menselijke centraal stelt. Paul Haenen is ook bekend als cabaretier en theatermaker, van zijn alter ego dominee Gremdaat en als stem van Bert en Grover in Sesamstraat. Presentatie: Carine van Santen

Have you ever felt trapped in the whirlwind of your own business, wishing it could run itself so you could finally breathe, and maybe even enjoy a family dinner? That's not just a dream. That's a system at work.In this episode, I'm joined by the powerhouse Marisa Grover—a mom of two toddlers who manages over 50 properties and has mastered the art of the "enough is enough" pivot.We talk about:How Marisa went from "accidental" host to a systems-driven entrepreneur managing 50+ unitsThe raw reality of handling guest requests while literally in labor (the spark that changed everything)The "Progress over Perfection" method—why a Loom video or a notebook is better than a perfect manualBut this isn't just about automation. It's about reclaiming your humanity.Marisa pulls back the curtain on the grit required to scale, from navigating licensing hurdles to building a team aligned with your values rather than just their resume. You'll hear why letting go isn't a loss of control—it's the key to leading, creating, and enjoying the life you've worked so hard to build.If you've ever wondered if you're "doing it right" or felt buried by the daily grind, this conversation will give you the blueprint to step out. Get ready to rethink your role in your business, and evolve from an overwhelmed operator into a confident CEO.HIGHLIGHTS AND KEY POINTS:[00:51] A short introduction about our guest Marisa Grover, and how she got started in the short-term rental industry[03:36] Marisa's early trial-and-error journey and the wake-up call that systems are what make a short-term rental business sustainable[07:48] Marisa's approach to building systems by starting small, documenting in real time, and valuing her time as a business owner[12:31] Marisa's perspective on team-building rooted in self-belief, leadership mindset, and intentional delegation[15:22] Marisa shares her mindset evolution through support, delegation, and gradual practice[21:14] Marisa's strategic approach to building a team around culture, outcomes, and intentional hiring[25:34] How Marisa's local team member who started as a cleaner naturally advanced to lead cleaner and eventually Operations Manager[26:17] Marisa shares the first task she delegated, driven by a desire to reclaim personal time and be fully present with her family during meals[29:29] Marisa's approach to next-level business growth by aligning with personal values, focusing on what she enjoys, and improving existing services[35:13] The lightning round Golden Nuggets:“I think a common misconception about building systems is that it is gonna suck your soul for a full year of your life, like there's no alternative, right? And so I just started, yes. I just started.”“Having belief in yourself and believing that you have value is the start of a domino effect that's much bigger.”“You have to believe that you are the valuable and the most...

What if helping someone you love through addiction starts with healing yourself? That single shift reframes everything—your boundaries, your tone, your scripts, and the way your home holds stress. Dr. Casey Grover sits down with family coach and author Lisa Katona Smith to unpack Parallel Recovery, a values-driven approach that gives families actionable tools and a steady process for change without the burnout of fixing or the coldness of detachment.Lisa shares how a personal crisis led her to blend educator skills, CRAFT principles, motivational interviewing, and trauma-informed strategies into a practical toolkit. We explore values and their shadow sides—how devotion without limits becomes resentment, and humor under pressure turns into sarcasm—and why clarity about who you want to be drives better boundaries. You'll hear the “hamburger boundary” story, a low-stakes, high-impact example of retraining family dynamics; a phone-blocking repair script that turns punishment into invitation; and simple ways to separate the person from the behavior so conversations stay human.We also look at the reality of nervous systems under stress and why sustainable change means concepts over checklists: consistent limits you can keep, language that calms, and agreements on how to raise concerns after treatment so families don't slip back into super-sleuth mode. Lisa explains why families are the first and final connection in recovery and how parallel support—one guide for the family, one for the person—reduces conflict and opens the door to readiness. If you've felt stuck between carrot and stick, this conversation offers a third path: redesign the relationship so change has room to grow.To learn more about Lisa and her work: https://lisakatonasmith.com/To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

Prophecy Radio episode 151 cruises through Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, episode 5, "We Check into C.C.'s Spa and Resort." They also discuss all the behind-the-scenes goodies from the Percy Jackson and the Olympians Official Podcast, as well as catch you up on some Christmas-related fun. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air every other week. All discussions are PG-13.No news this weekPercy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, episode 5 discussion (00:12:30) Right away we know Percy and Annabeth are alive. That's a relief. And how convenient they find themselves in the only sanctuary in the Sea of Monsters! Hylla sighting! Is this our first Heroes of Olympus easter egg? C.C. wants to help them identify their fatal flaws so they can survive the sirens. How noble. Stavros, our little jet skiing anachronism, does not fair too well. We may not have seen Stavros' demise, but hearing it was pretty gnarly. Clarisse wakes up on the beach. Lucky lady can see the golden fleece, though, so... quest still on! But then she gets caught in Polyphemus' trap. Quest paused. I really hope they find ways to weave the consensus song into every season. It makes Kristen smile. She tells Grover that Percy and Annabeth are dead, but thanks to that empathy link, Grover is sure she's wrong. All he had was hope, but now he has Clarisse and some rope! Back to C.C.'s: Percy and Annabeth look ADORABLE. They don't agree. C.C. wants to help them find their fatal flaws with her very own Mirror of Swalflataf (if you know, you know)/li> Annabeth takes the opportunity to try and learn something about C.C. We have a super swoon moment when Percy goes full book boyfriend. Even if we are trying to temper our little shipper hearts because they are not supposed to be at the crush stage yet. Percy believes he is a danger to the quest, so he decides to stay at C.C's. Back to the island: Clarisse is trying to shimmy up a rope to escape the cave, but the sensitive, sassy Cuban Oak can only take so much. Polyphemus returns, but this time Grover forgets to lower his veil... not good. Back on C.C.'s island: Percy has a very enlightening chat with Zadie. Percy confronts C.C. to transformative results. Is that a pen cup full of souvenirs, or did C.C. just think Percy's pen would be happy there? Percy doesn't let a little thing like being a guinea pig keep him from trying to formulate a plan. Describing Ares as merciful is a dead giveaway. Whatever you say, fakeGrover. This Polyphemus is waaaaaay scarier than the book. We appreciate the consistency with representing all cyclopses the same. Annabeth has a plan. But she also knows how to freestyle like the best of them. Multivitamins to the rescue! Percy and Annabeth set sail, but only one gets the wax. The other gets roped. Aaaand just kidding. C.C. takes back her wax. Annabeth's vision is detailed, but she has a plan. ATHENA SIGHTING! It's a double cross! It was the sirens the whole time! Percy saves the day. Next time: Tyson sighting, Kronos in season 1 form, and its time to battle Polyphemus. Percy Jackson and the Olympians Official Podcast highlights (01:34:34) A bit of a surprise: This week's guest is Glynn Turman, aka, Chiron! The Andrew counter lives. Glynn is Chiron: Both run camps, both help campers learn new skills, both have lost campers. Chiron's horse half is the same horse that plays Blackjack and has shown up in the background, too. There is a Grover horn arc already plotted for five seasons. This detail has us absolutely fangirling. They're going to curl by season 5! Next guests: Zoe Neary (Producer) and Jules O'Loughlin (Director of Photography) The sirens were played by stuntwomen using windsurfing rigs. **chef's kiss** Realism at work: They gave costume department samples of the rock to match, they used real seaweed from the marina, and there was a crab wrangler on set! One guinea pig is given the high ground. And different foods give them different eyelines. So much to learn about guinea pig acting. Rosemarie Dewitt killed it as C.C. Dior and Charlie shadowed producers to learn more about that part of the filmmaking process. Getting away from the Volume stage this year. Practical sets help them to lean into the weather and natural enviroments around them. The sound department is not a fan of fidget spinners. Oops. Listener Feedback (01:54:38)We have an email!

This week, we're discussing Disney+'s Percy Jackson and the Olympians Episode 6 of Season 2, "Nobody Gets The Fleece." Percy's fatal flaw is out and about this episode, and we aren't complaining. We say the word "interesting" like 37 times and work on our pronunciation of Thalia. Percy and Annabeth's plan to save Grover and Clarisse doesn't go super well. Tyson reappears and steals all our hearts.

Cravings don't wait for perfect conditions, so we need plans that work in real life. I sit down with coach Jason Lyle to unpack a grounded, nontraditional approach to addiction treatment that starts with the body and rewires the brain: cold water immersion, breath work, meditation, and yoga. This is recovery as nervous system training—practical tools that widen the gap between urge and action and put your prefrontal cortex back in the driver's seat.Jason shares his path from ministry through sex addiction and despair to a repeatable method that helps men regulate first, then choose. We break down the science in plain language: why ice baths create a safe, high‑intensity rehearsal for impulse control; how Wim Hof‑style breathing builds micro‑seconds of space during cravings; and how a five‑minute, no‑frills meditation practice teaches you to see thoughts and let them go. We also show where yoga fits in—not acrobatics, but simple positions that let the body signal the brain and release tension before it becomes a decision you regret.Across the hour, we map a daily stack that takes 20–30 minutes and delivers fast results, plus what to expect at the two‑month plateau when the “new normal” feels unfamiliar. You'll learn the three pillars Jason uses—honesty, curiosity, and self‑love—along with on‑demand regulation moves: a ten‑second breath reset, when to grab a cold shower, and why hard exercise can dump stress hormones when grounding isn't enough. We also talk identity shifts, rewriting shame narratives with simple journaling and affirmations, and how small choices compound into a life you actually want to defend.If you're a clinician, coach, or anyone navigating addiction, this conversation offers concrete steps and clear language to share with patients and peers. Explore Jason's resources at thesacredgrit.com and his Sacred Grit Podcast for guided practices. If this resonated, follow the show, leave a review, and share it with someone who could use a stronger toolkit for recovery. Your next calm breath might be the start of a different day.To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

New episodes of Prophecy Radio air every other week. All discussions are PG-13. News (00:15:32) Deadline has shared casting news for three new Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 3 actors. First up is Holt McCallany, who you may know from Mindhunter, as Atlas. David Constabile, who we're a little less familiar with, will be playing Dr. Thorn, and he certainly looks the part. Lastly, the legendary Jesse L. Martin will be playing Annabeth's Dad, Frederick Chase. We also have runtimes for Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, episodes 5, 6, and 7. We're so excited for next week! Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, episode 4 discussion (00:24:31) Points to us for knowing Annabeth was in a sewer, even though we had no idea why. We really see the relationship between Luke and Young Annabeth in the first flashback scene. Did you expect Young Annabeth to call Luke out for telling her Keloggia was the goddess of stealth? Did you like the Monster Donut and hydra details?? Young Annabeth is SO CUTE. Percy knows just what to say to Tyson. He also knows how to break the tension. Boys are gross. Clarisse makes a VERY dramatic entrance. How did she know Annabeth wasn't inside?? Annabeth and Clarisse go toe-to-toe in a battle of wits. Then Percy and Clarisse go toe-to-toe in a battle of strength. Did Percy think he could beat Clarisse, or was he just giving Annabeth time to make her move? Why is Clarisse so hellbent on not having any other demigods with her? Time to make some big choices! Will it be Scylla or…that other one? Clarisse really doesn't like the idea of sacrificing her men. There's that bleeding heart again. Grover is an excellent Protector. Demigods are just bad at listening. Neither Luke nor Thalia wants to go to Camp. Luke looks SO emo in this scene, and we're eating it up. What were your original theories as to why Annabeth's bracelet kept returning to the boat? We get a glimpse of Rainbow!! Percy realizes he's got some new abilities. Will Tyson grow into more of his Poseidon skills? Small choices make the biggest difference sometimes. Percy has some great advice in this scene, but is it a little too clean and perfect? Clarisse's men are willing to follow her anywhere, and you can tell that sits heavy on her shoulders. Was Percy channeling Sally Jackson in this scene with the sandwich? We get the full prophecy, and even though it's straight from the book, we're glad to hear it from start to finish. It's time to follow through on those big choices! “Heroes slay monsters, they don't run from them.” Sometimes it's hard to remember, especially in the beginning, that Clarisse is a hero, too. We loved watching Annabeth and Percy figure out how to correct course after Clarisse changes their heading. Percy on the front of the ship, steady as a rock, was SO BADASS. Clarisse saves Annabeth. How very friendly of her! Ironside blows up in the most dramatic way possible. Can you believe the episode ended here?? Next time: Sea Doos, sirens, guinea pigs, oh my! Percy Jackson and the Olympians Official Podcast highlights (01:20:26) We get another opening bit for the podcast. Aryan tells us about that time he fought a brick. Charlie and Tamara join the podcast to talk about the flashback. This was Charlie and Aryan's first real scene together. It's a good thing Aryan didn't do that stunt. Young Annabeth is actually Leah's cousin! Wait till you hear how Charlie “found” Young Luke. We finally get an Andrew shoutout counter. Did you know Luke wasn't in the original Percy Jackson story? How does the whole Thalia-as-a-tree thing work? Tamara knew Lance Reddick, so joining this show as his daughter was kismet. Erik Henry and Eli Zagoudakis join to talk about how visual effects and stunt work go hand-in-hand. They decided to go in a different direction when revealing Aegis. They tilted Ironside overnight! When designing Tyson's look, they wanted to change as little of Daniel's face as possible. The actors are all so willing to do their own stunts. Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode #151, where we'll recap Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, episode 5, as well as the next episode of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians Official Podcast.

SIRENS!! Percy Jackson Season 2 Episode 5 Full Reaction Watch Along: ⁠  / thereelrejects  ⁠ Greg Alba & Tara Erickson react to Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 2 Episode 5, and this one pulls straight from The Sea of Monsters with mythology, danger, and character separation hitting hard. In this episode, Percy and Annabeth come face-to-face with Circe, whose island becomes a psychological and emotional test that challenges their identities and deepest fears. The threat escalates even further when the Sirens lure them toward devastating visions of what they want most — pushing Percy and Annabeth to confront temptation, destiny, and trust. Meanwhile, Clarisse and Grover aren't as lucky. Captured by a Cyclops, the episode splits the group apart, raising the stakes and reinforcing how dangerous the Sea of Monsters truly is. With the quest fractured and monsters closing in, Season 2 continues to test loyalty, leadership, and sacrifice.

Steve welcomes Grover Norquist, President of Americans for Tax Reform, for a wide-ranging conversation about why 2025 was a strong year for taxpayers and why 2026 looks even better from an America First tax perspective. Grover will highlight the policy wins that helped reduce the tax burden on working families and defend economic freedom. Then they will dig into the shocking fraud uncovered in Minnesota, where federal investigations have revealed widespread misuse of taxpayer funds in social services programs, including allegations that fake businesses siphoned off millions in government dollars meant for children and other services, prompting federal probes and political outrage over accountability and transparency.

Vintage drug ads promised calm mornings, slimmer silhouettes, and instant relief from restless nights. We dig beneath the glossy slogans to unpack how Black Beauties, Quaaludes, Miltown, Barbiturates, and Purple Hearts shaped the path to today's mediations—and what that history teaches us about safety, dependence, and withdrawal. With clear explanations of GABA, tolerance, and cross‑tapering, we connect old “uppers and downers” to modern clinical practice and the real risks people still face.I share why amphetamines jumped from diet pills to productivity boosters, how tranquilizers won hearts and airwaves, and why barbiturates' direct receptor action made them both effective and uniquely lethal. We explore the strange logic of combining a stimulant with a sedative in a single pill, the concept of the therapeutic index that flipped prescribing habits, and the cultural pressure—often aimed at women—that fueled demand for daily sedation. You'll hear how benzos improved the safety margin, where they still go wrong, and how clinicians now use careful tapers, screen for polysubstance use, and apply harm‑reduction strategies to prevent overdose.If you've ever wondered why some drugs vanished and others became standard, this deep dive brings context, clarity, and practical takeaways. You'll walk away able to explain the difference between narrow and wide therapeutic indexes, why withdrawal from certain depressants is so dangerous, and how our field balances relief with risk.

Stress doesn't wait for a convenient moment, so why should resilience training wait for a crisis? We sit down with Coach Kay, a PhD serving first responders, ER teams, and other high‑stress professionals, to unpack a practical roadmap for emotional resilience you can actually use. We connect the dots between addiction, overwhelm, and the brain's survival circuitry, then break down simple steps to recruit the prefrontal cortex, label emotions accurately, and respond with intention instead of impulse.You'll hear a clear definition of emotional resilience as a learnable skill and a tour of the six domains that make it concrete: vision, composure, reasoning, health, tenacity, and collaboration. We talk through what a first session looks like, why early “small wins” build momentum, and how honest conversation itself shifts brain chemistry. For clinicians and caregivers, we address the bitter edge of burnout and PTSD and show how third‑person perspective and narrative reframing loosen long‑held patterns without minimizing the pain that created them. If you're supporting people in recovery, you'll get language to explain limbic activation, why substances become shortcuts, and how proactive habits restore choice.This conversation is warm, candid, and grounded: practical journaling prompts, mindfulness tactics, and movement as medicine—whether that's CrossFit or a neighborhood game of basketball. We make the case for teaching resilience to teens during key developmental windows while reminding everyone that it's never too late to start. The thread throughout is agency: notice what you feel, understand why, and build rituals that help you act on your values when it counts.If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a colleague who's carrying too much, and leave a review with one resilience practice you're trying this week. Your story might be the nudge someone else needs.To learn more about Coach Kay's work: https://www.psyrescoaching.com/aboutTo contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

In this episode of the Wharton FinTech Podcast, host Vaibhav speaks with Riya Grover, co-founder and CEO of Sequence, an AI native revenue platform that unifies quoting, billing automation, and receivables so finance can finally run at the speed of sales. Riya shares her journey from investment banking and Harvard Business School to exiting her first startup and then launching Sequence to fix one of the most neglected parts of the CFO stack, quote to cash and accounts receivable. She goes deep on what it really takes to find product market fit in a saturated software world, why AI native entrants can out execute incumbents, and how Sequence is using agents to automate complex finance workflows. They also unpack Riya's recent Series A fundraise, the story that resonated with investors, and her candid advice for founders building in a noisy, AI heavy, but more competitive than ever venture environment. In this episode, we learn about: - Why quote to cash and revenue operations have lagged behind AP and spend in automation - How Sequence uses AI agents to read contracts, generate invoices, and support finance teams - What investors really cared about in Sequence's Series A, from logo quality to 190 % NRR - How Riya stays close to customers while scaling a fast growing infra company - Her advice for aspiring founders on standing out in today's crowded AI landscape

Before the citations. Before the regulations. Before the arguments—there's people. In the first-ever Safe Word segment of Mining Minds, Grover sits down with longtime mentor, former MSHA inspector, and no-nonsense safety professional Jim Hoover to have the conversations most safety meetings never do. This episode strips away the myths, the fear, and the finger-pointing around mining safety and replaces them with something better: honesty, experience, and critical thinking. They break down what MSHA actually does (and doesn't do), why citations aren't cash grabs, and how perception, personality, and human judgment shape every inspection. From the difference between being compliant and being truly safe, to why asking why matters more than memorizing the 30 CFR, this episode is about understanding safety—not weaponizing it. You'll hear real stories from the pit and the inspector's side, hard lessons learned early in a career, and why building relationships—rather than hiding when inspectors show up—can make operations safer for everyone. Brass in—join the conversation and be a part of The Safe Word.   Chapters: 01:50 Why This Safety Conversation Started 02:41 Opinion, Experience, and Inviting Disagreement 07:52 Mining Safety Myths: Do Inspectors Get Paid for Citations? 10:55 The Human Element of Inspections 13:26 Understanding the 30 CFR and Asking "Why" 17:48 Real-World Example 22:34 Regional Differences and Interpretation of Standards 29:05 Inspectors as a Resource, Not the Enemy 35:32 Recognizing Good Work and Building Safety Culture
