What if the number of candles on your birthday cake isn't the most important measure of how you're aging?Two people can be the exact same chronological age and have remarkably different levels of strength, cardiovascular fitness, metabolic health, inflammation, energy, resilience, and physical capability. In this episode, Dr. Thomas Hemingway explores the emerging science of biological versus chronological aging—and, more importantly, what you can actually do about it. Drawing from longevity research, his experience as a physician, and the principles behind his upcoming book The Biology of Becoming, Dr. Hemingway shares seven powerful signals that can influence the trajectory of how we age—including muscle, cardiovascular fitness, metabolic health, sleep, inflammation, nutrition, and something that may matter more than all the biomarkers: knowing what you're getting healthy for.You'll also hear a powerful client story, the simple reason a 10-minute walk after dinner can matter more than you think, why muscle may be your body's most important “retirement account,” and a practical 7-Day Becoming Younger Experiment you can begin immediately. Because longevity isn't really about trying to live forever. It's about building a body capable of continuing to say yes to the people, experiences, adventures, and purpose that make life worth living. Your birthday will keep changing. But how you age isn't entirely predetermined. Every choice is a signal—and your biology is always listening.**Free PDF: "5 Questions That Will CHANGE your life" Inside the PDF, we share how to partner with your biology instead of fighting it.

In this episode, Dr. Thomas Hemingway explores one of the central ideas behind his upcoming book, The Biology of Becoming: How to Partner With Your Biology and Become the Person You Were Created to Be. Drawing from current research and more than two decades of medicine, he explains why metabolism adapts, why muscle is so important for metabolic health, how something as simple as a walk after dinner can change your glucose response, and why sleep, nutrition, movement, stress, relationships, and purpose are all biological conversations happening inside you every day.You'll also hear real-world stories and walk away with simple actions you can begin today—without another extreme diet, complicated protocol, or pursuit of perfection. Because lasting health isn't built in dramatic moments. It's built through the signals you repeat. Change the signals, and you can begin changing your biology—and the person you're becoming.Remember, Your body isn't broken. It's responding. Every choice is a signal. And every day, you're becoming someone. **Free PDF: "5 Questions That Will CHANGE your life" Inside the PDF, we share how to partner with your biology instead of fighting it.

Fernando Mendoza got his first live NFL action Thursday against Arizona — and the film tells a real story. On this episode of Silver and Black Today, Scott Gulbransen breaks down Mendoza's uneven-but-promising preseason debut, his touchdown pass to Jack Bech, and why his growing chemistry with rookie receiver Malik Benson might be the storyline that matters most heading into the season. Plus: Kirk Cousins locks down every first-team rep for a third straight practice, Brendan Jackson lands on IR after his Arizona injury, and the Raiders respond by signing veteran defensive tackle Folorunso Fatukasi. Scott also digs into Jermod McCoy's rough return from a 20-month injury layoff, Max Crosby's dominant week of practice, the still-unsettled right guard battle between Jackson Powers-Johnson and Caleb Rogers, and a shuffling secondary as the Raiders prep for their joint practice and preseason game against the Houston Texans.

Join us for the final installment of One True Book Club '26! In this series of episodes, we are reading the Hemingway-relevant selection, Under Fire by Henri Barbusse, the classic French WWI novel published in 1916.This episode covers the final chapters of the novel. We discuss how Barbusse balances graphic, grotesque depictions of the dead with artistic restraint; we analyze anti-war themes throughout this section, including Corporal Bertrand's powerful speech; and we reflect on the "ray of light" symbolism at the end of the book.Throughout the discussion, we connect our reading to other works by Hemingway: “Chapter X” of In Our Time [They whack-whacked the horse…], A Farewell to Arms, For Whom the Bell Tolls, Men at War, “A Natural History of the Dead," and “Soldier's Home.” We also draw connections to other non-Hemingway works, among them J'accuse (dir. Abel Gance), Stephen Crane's The Red Badge of Courage, Bob Dylan's “Blowin' in the Wind,” Joseph Heller's Catch-22, Siegfried Sassoon's Memoirs of an Infantry Officer, and Saving Private Ryan (dir. Steven Spielberg).We are using the Penguin Classics edition with an Introduction written by Professor Jay Winter. In the second half of this episode, Winter kindly sits down with us to share his wisdom about this spectacular book!Thank you for listening to One True Podcast!

Amit Chaudhuri rejoins me to discuss his new novel/memoir/essay, Chateau Rouge. The book is about a writer who finds himself in a region of Paris, Chateau Rouge, filled with immigrants and their small business hustles, not cafes and patisseries. Shocked by how different Chateau Rouge is from the Paris of Hemingway and Proust, the narrator has to find a new way to understand what Paris is and what it means, without reliance on Parisian cliche.Amit and I discuss all of this, and also the broader question of how you find the meaning in the mundane. We also conclude the interview talking a bit about the filmmaker Yasujiro Ozu, whose films were also about the meaning of the mundane. I recommend starting Ozu with his film Good Morning, linked below. Amit recommends I was Born, But... also linked below. And you may be interested to learn that Good Morning is Ozu's own remake of I was Born, But...Chateau Rouge: https://flyleafbooks.com/book/9798896230878Good Morning: https://archive.org/details/good-morning_202012I was Born, But...: https://archive.org/details/i-was-born-but
Angelo Petrella"La valigia perduta di Hemingway"Neri Pozza Editorewww.neripozza.itParigi, 1929. È un mattino di una primavera letargica e insolitamente fredda quello in cui il giovane Marcel, agente semplice di polizia e aspirante scrittore, è costretto a interrompere la sua ronda. Le grida di una donna che provengono da un vecchio palazzo popolare non possono essere ignorate e lo zelante novellino, insieme al suo collega, deve intervenire. Ma una volta sedata la lite furibonda tra un uomo e la sua cocotte, qualcosa trattiene Marcel: un gatto che gratta contro una porta chiusa e un odore dolciastro che filtra dalla soglia. Dietro quella porta, li accolgono una musica jazz che suona a vuoto e il corpo senza vita di una donna. Per i piani alti, il caso andrebbe archiviato come suicidio, anche se per Marcel troppe sono le incongruenze, troppo poco credibile la lettera d'addio, per tacere del volto esangue e magnetico di quella donna che gli chiede giustizia. Deciso a indagare da solo, si ritrova invischiato nella Parigi pulsante e scapestrata – tra atelier fumosi e caffè letterari, spettacoli sabotati dai surrealisti e lunghe notti per familiarizzare con le anime belle e inquiete di Man Ray e James Joyce, Kiki de Montparnasse e Henry Miller, Luis Buñuel e Zelda Fitzgerald. E poi c'è Ernest Hemingway, coi suoi baffoni, il viso bonario e lo sguardo indecifrabile, che ha mentito sul suo rapporto con la vittima: l'indiziato perfetto, se non fosse per quell'aura da scrittore affermato che colpisce Marcel proprio nel suo punto debole. Mentre la città danza sull'orlo degli anni Trenta ignara della catastrofe incombente, Marcel capisce che quello che sta seguendo è solo un filo nella trama di una ossessione letale. E che i nostri miti possono nascondere segreti oscuri, punti ciechi che non siamo disposti a illuminare.Gli anni cupi stavano per arrivare, a presentare il conto di tutta quella gioia di vivere nell'incoscienza del futuro, tra fiumi di alcol e scazzottate notturne. Avrei passato anch'io, come tutti, i miei anni di fughe, miseria e incontri clandestini. Avrei atteso l'alba della grande vittoria, le speranze di un nuovo inizio, e il premio Nobel conferito a Hem alla fine di una carriera lunga e produttiva. Ma quella mattina, seduto al freddo sui gradini di Montmartre, non avevo alcuna idea di ciò che mi attendeva.Angelo Petrella è nato a Napoli nel 1978. Scrittore, sceneggiatore e traduttore, ha pubblicato tra gli altri i romanzi Cane rabbioso, Pompei. L'incubo e il risveglio, Le api randage, La fine dei fagioli e La città perfetta, Fragile è la notte, La notte non esiste, tradotti anche in Francia. Lavora per il cinema e la tv, firmando soggetti e sceneggiature per film o serie televisive tra cui I bastardi di Pizzofalcone, Mare fuori, Resta con me, La rosa dell'Istria, Noi del Rione Sanità e Il commissario Ricciardi.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/
Chef Felicia Lacalle's story is about much more than food. The Tampa chef and partner at Quiote Tequilaria sits down with Walk-In Talk Podcast for an unfiltered conversation about addiction, divorce, single motherhood, failed partnerships, financial hardship, faith, and the long road back to herself. Felicia began cooking at a young age, inspired by her mother, her Mexican and Cuban heritage, and even childhood afternoons watching Julia Child. She went on to graduate from Johnson & Wales, spend more than a decade at Roy's, and eventually earn national recognition at Hemingway's—including a first-place win at the 2018 International Cuban Sandwich Festival. But behind the accolades were years of setbacks and painful choices. Felicia opens up about substance abuse, losing businesses, destructive relationships, rebuilding as a single mother, returning to faith, and learning how to recognize the patterns that nearly derailed her life. Today, she is entering a new chapter as a partner at Quiote Tequilaria, where her Mexican roots, Cuban influence, and decades of kitchen experience come together in food that is deeply personal. The episode also features two dishes prepared in the Walk-In Talk Media studio: duck enmoladas with Oaxacan cheese and a wild boar pork belly dish with boniato mash, charred baby leeks, and pickled mustard seeds. This is a conversation about resilience, accountability, faith, mental health, restaurant life, and what it takes to rebuild when the life you imagined falls apart. Featured Dishes During her Walk-In Talk Media studio session, Chef Felicia prepared two deeply personal dishes that reflect both sides of her culinary heritage. The first was Duck Enmoladas—house-made corn tortillas filled with duck confit, topped with pistachio mole, Oaxacan cheese from Salerno Dairy, crema, and chile de árbol pickled onions. Her second dish showcased Shogun Farms wild boar pork belly, slowly braised with sour orange, garlic and spices, served over brown butter boniato purée with charred baby leeks and pickled mustard seeds—a modern interpretation inspired by her Cuban roots. Special thanks to our newest studio partner, Shogun Farms, for supplying the premium wild boar pork belly featured in this episode. Their commitment to responsible farming and exceptional specialty proteins helped bring this remarkable dish to life. Key Takeaways Success isn't about avoiding failure—it's about refusing to let failure define who you become. Faith became the foundation that helped Felicia rebuild her life after addiction, divorce, financial hardship, and personal loss. The restaurant industry can be incredibly rewarding, but it can also magnify mental health struggles, addiction, burnout, and unhealthy lifestyles. Self-reflection, accountability, and therapy were essential in breaking destructive personal and generational patterns. Every setback—from failed partnerships to losing businesses—became preparation for the opportunity she has today. Roy's shaped Felicia's discipline, leadership, and respect for kitchen culture, providing the foundation for her career. Great food is deeply personal. Life experiences, heritage, and emotional growth ultimately influence what ends up on the plate. Leadership begins with culture. Felicia believes respect, accountability, and creating a healthy kitchen environment are just as important as culinary skill. Building something meaningful often requires walking away from situations—even successful ones—that no longer align with your purpose. Quiote Tequilaria represents more than a restaurant; it represents a lifetime of perseverance, healing, and finally feeling at home in her craft. Breaking generational cycles requires intentional choices, discipline, and the courage to confront your own mistakes. Hospitality professionals don't have to face their struggles alone.

On this episode of Plain Talk, recorded on location inside Brewhalla at the TedXFargo event, we talked about a deeply uncomfortable topic. Suicide, namely. Our guest was Haley DeGreve, founder of the Gray Matters Collective, an advocacy group focused on mental health issues which also provides training for the public on how to recognize mental health episodes and health. We think about CPR training, and first aid training, but what about someone who is having a manic episode, or contemplating suicide? "Where our organization has leaned into that gray area is there are people like you and I who care, but we don't know how to help," DeGreve told us. "We're not trained in this. And so, we actually spend a lot of our funding on training to get people trained so, if you're in the grocery store and you see someone having a mental breakdown, you know what to do. You know how to connect them." Also on this episode, co-host Chad Oban and I discussed a recent, tacit acknowledgement that property tax exemptions have a real cost for the public. "The true thing is that when we give away an exemption, there's a cost," I argued. "Maybe the cost is worth paying, right? We can have a debate about that, but it is a cost and we can't ignore it." We also discussed the back lash against data centers, and how the public's shift towards online populism has influenced that. "This is what happens when there's an issue that's very complicated and you have a fringe that's sort of running the messaging on this that everything is terrible," I said. The real threat of AI, I argue, is that it can make nonsense arguments seem plausible. "Any moron can sound like Hemingway with ChatGPT," I said.

Send us a text by clicking this link!A 500-foot granite cross rises north of Madrid, and underneath it lies a story most of us were never taught to see straight. The Spanish Civil War is usually packaged as a clash between fascist generals and a democratic republic, with Hemingway and Orwell standing in for the whole moral picture. Today I walk through historian Warren Carroll's counterclaim from The Last Crusade: that the core conflict is faith against revolution, and that once you follow the evidence, the familiar narrative starts to invert.We trace the five-year runway to 1936: church burnings, anti-Catholic laws, and the Popular Front's own revolutionary promises, followed by a country slipping into open political violence. Then we hit the moment that makes “normal politics” feel impossible: the murder of opposition leader José Calvo Sotelo by state security forces. From there the focus shifts to Navarre's Carlists and the religious framing that turns a rising into what Carroll calls a crusade, complete with confession, Communion, hymns, and the Sacred Heart.The hardest section is the one Carroll says the modern world prefers to minimize: the systematic persecution of the Catholic Church in Republican zones, the disappearance of public Mass, and the martyr stories, including Barbastro. We also look at the siege of the Alcazar of Toledo and why symbolic promises can outweigh tactical advantage, then follow Carroll's documentation of Soviet influence, the NKVD presence, and Spain's gold shipped to the Soviet Union. Finally, I deal directly with Nationalist abuses and Carroll's argument about judging a war's original cause versus the sins committed within it.If you care about Spanish Civil War history, Catholic persecution in Spain, Franco-era memory, or how propaganda shapes what becomes “common knowledge,” this one will stick with you.

Questions? Comments? Text Us!What makes romantic love feel more powerful than reason, safer choices, or even self-preservation? And what does it mean to experience God's love through the person who loves you?In this intimate dialogue, Jerry and Abigail return to God's striking instruction: “Let Abigail love you. You will feel My love through her.” Jerry reflects on why God's love might need to become tangible through another person, while Abigail considers what it means to embody that love through presence, touch, sacrifice, and a shared life.Abigail reflects on falling in love as an overwhelming force that resisted every attempt to explain or contain it. Not psychology. Not philosophy. Not even Husserl's phenomenology could give her enough distance from the pull of erotic and romantic love.Their conversation moves through desire, sacrifice, feminism, sexuality, and the difference between casual sex and a love that asks something deeper of us. Abigail recalls leaving behind an ideal life in New York, not in search of comfort or happiness, but because love itself carried an authority she could not ignore.From the Garden of Eden to Dante, Jane Austen, the Brontës, D. H. Lawrence, Hemingway, and Dickens, Jerry and Abigail ask what modern culture may have lost when sex became detached from romance, courtship, nobility, and risk.Can erotic love still awaken courage, devotion, and sacrifice? And can the love between two people reveal something of God that cannot be felt any other way?Get the books:Radically Personal: God and Ourselves in the New Axial AgeGod: An Autobiography, As Told to a PhilosopherConfessions of a Young PhilosopherA Good Look at Evil***Ultimate Questions***Listen to the full episode and explore the question with a community of philosophers and seekers.Join the Ultimate Questions conversation on calling and divine guidance: https://substack.com/@ultimatequestionsOther Series:The podcast began with the Dramatic Adaptation of the book and now has several series:The Life Wisdom Project – Spiritual insights on living a wiser, more meaningful life.From God to Jerry to You – Divine messages and breakthroughs for seekers.Two Philosophers Wrestle With God – A dialogue on God, truth, and reason.Jerry & Abigail: An Intimate Dialogue – Love, faith, and divine presence in partnership.What's Your Spiritual Story – Real stories of people changed by encounters with God.What's On Our Mind – Reflections from Jerry and Scott on recent episodes.What's On Your Mind – Listener questions, divine answers, and open dialogue.

[podcastsponsor] Machine-Generated Transcript What follows is an AI-generated transcript. The transcript may contain errors and is not a substitute for listening to the episode. Christopher S. Penn: In this week’s In Ear Insights, let’s talk about AI detectors, one of my personal favorite subjects to rant about. But Katie, before I foam at the mouth for 30 minutes, let’s have you foam at the mouth about it. Katie Robbert: It’s such an interesting topic and obviously very polarizing right now. AI detectors in a nutshell are meant to help someone determine whether or not AI was used in any kind of writing. Now our good friend Anne Hanley pointed out, oh sure. So these AI detectors that were trained on human authors’ writings without their consent are now meant to tell these people that they didn’t write the things that the model was trained on. I’m paraphrasing, but it was basically that was the gist. And last week when we published the weekly Inbox Insights newsletter, we had a reader provide some very unpleasant feedback. This reader felt, in their opinion, that they had determined that the post I had written about “if you don’t know what AI can do, just ask it” was completely written by AI and that I should be fired. That I was lying about the use of AI in terms of it wrote it for me, that it was AI slop, that this person was going to write their own blog post about how I, the CEO of a company called Trust Insights, can’t be trusted. So that was the feedback this person had for my contribution to the newsletter last week. This week, if you subscribe to Inbox Insights, I fully disclose my use of AI in writing the newsletter and writing in general. I’m going to give you a spoiler because there’s no secret. I write the newsletter myself. I then use various AI tools to hopefully clean it up. Because the feedback I got when I was in college in my creative writing class is that I write the way that I talk. And it’s kind of a stream of consciousness. Now, as I’ve gotten older, I’ve gotten a little bit more concise and articulate, but that doesn’t mean my writing has. And so it still kind of comes out as a stream of consciousness, which I think for any writer that’s doing draft one is you just get it out. It’s why it’s called the ugly first draft, and then some people… I used to have John, our head of business development and our partner, read through and edit my posts for me. This was prior to having tools like Hemingway or AI editors. I had a human editing it. Now John’s busy making sales. He’s still happy to edit my posts, but it’s not the best use of his time. And so now I use a tool called Hemingway, which a lot of people use. Hemingway has a lot of really great features for grammar and sentence structure. I’m not trained, and I don’t have a degree in writing or English. My grammar is really bad sometimes. Sometimes I overuse passive voice. Sometimes my sentences aren’t structured well. It’s helpful to have a tool that can clean up the thing without losing the intent and sentiment of the writing. I also use our Ask the ICP skills in our cloud environment to make sure that the post that I’m writing resonates with our audience. Because if it doesn’t, why am I writing it? So I use those various tools. So the point of the newsletter this week that I dive into is, yes, I use AI to supplement and clean up my writing. No, AI does not write for me. I’ve got 10 fingers, one with a bandage, so it goes a little slower. And I type with my thumbs, typing very slowly. So sometimes I use an audio recording of me speaking something. Chris, this is something you do. But, yes, I painfully type all of my newsletters very slowly. And then AI helps me clean them up to be more concise. I don’t think that’s an uncommon practice, especially among people. This is true of, I think, Ann even posted in her newsletter this past week. Christopher S. Penn: Week. Katie Robbert: Total anarchy if you’re not subscribed. How she uses AI with her writing as well. And she said she gives it explicit instructions: read through it, review it, don’t edit anything, tell me what the edits are supposed to be. So she’s also someone who we know and love, who is a very fantastic writer, finding ways to use these tools to help enhance the writing. It can be cost prohibitive to have a human editor on your team. You may not have access to a copywriter, or you may not have a team of people who are really great at editing. There’s a lot of… So AI can fill that role for you. I’ll say it like this: I wrote the newsletter. AI helped me edit it, so it was coherent. So unfortunately for this reader, I will not be firing myself. I would appreciate you not trying to destroy my credibility, but should you choose to do so, we will deal with it at that time. Christopher S. Penn: I’m surprised you didn’t bring this up because this is the heart of the matter to me. If we think about these AI detectors, why are you using them? Why do you care? What is the purpose of an AI detector by the 5P Framework by Trust Insights? Of course. Katie Robbert: Well, the five P’s are in this week’s newsletter, so you can certainly get your healthy dose of the 5P Framework by Trust Insights. But you’re absolutely right, Chris, and that’s a miss on my part because I am human and not a sentient machine. I missed the mark on calling out that the 5P Framework by Trust Insights is a great place to start. Why are you using these AI tools? So, for me, my purpose is to edit the grammar and spelling of my content so that it’s coherent. I’m also checking with our ICP to make sure it resonates with the people I’m writing it for. But our ICP is the people part of it that really matters, because I’m not writing it for myself. I’m writing from my experience and my expertise, but I’m writing it for… For our ICP so that they get something educational out of it. I outlined my process in this week’s newsletter of how and when I use the tools and platforms. It depends. I might write it in a document, I might create an audio file, and then I’ll bring it into the large language model. I might use Hemingway. I definitely use the skills that we’ve created. And then the performance is, do I have a piece of content that I wrote and AI helped me edit that gets people to respond to the newsletter? Christopher S. Penn: It is the 5P Framework. From the perspective of the people who are using or advocating for AI detectors, what is their purpose? Because this is where I have the biggest problem I see. Yeah, no, no. From the AI detector perspective, what is your purpose in the case of this particular reader? Is your purpose just that you have a burr up your ass and you need to yell at somebody? Like, okay, you don’t need an AI detector for that. You can be a jackass. Regardless, in the case of its use in academia, the purpose is very often for academic integrity, which makes these tools very dangerous because of their false positive rate. Pangram, which is the tool that Substack most famously just implemented, has a false positive rate of 0.02 percent. If you fed every college student’s papers in America to it and said, run disciplinary proceedings, you would flag 200,000 students a year with false accusations. In the corporate world, if you’re using these tools to enforce contracts, again, that false positive rate—particularly for business-related content, which is what a lot of these tools have been trained on—is going to have a fairly high false positive rate. So the first thing people need to be very clear about is why are you using an AI detector? And is your purpose a good use of the technology? Spoiler, there really isn’t a great use of the technology for AI detection. And we’ll talk about why the technology itself is so flawed on this week’s live stream, which you can tune into Thursdays at 1 PM Eastern Time at TrustInsights.ai YouTube. But going back to the 5P Framework by Trust Insights, my biggest issue with these tools is that very often the purpose people are using them for is deeply flawed. Katie Robbert: And that, you can sort of generalize and say that, well, people don’t want AI-written content. They want content written by a human. So you could say that’s the purpose. So if this particular reader decided, I don’t want AI-written content, but this content is written by AI, this particular reader could have just moved along. But they decided to try and pick a fight. By the way, screenshots last forever. And it was a very unprofessional feedback session from this person, just as an FYI. And you know, if this person decided, okay, I feel like this is written by AI, let me put it through the detector and determine if this is written by AI. They could have just said, you know what? I don’t care for this. I don’t want this. Christopher S. Penn: Yeah, that’s what I always come back to is like, if you don’t want this, great, here’s the door. It’s like if people complain, oh, well, you didn’t write this fiction novel the way I wanted, well, then write your own damn novel. Right? No one’s stopping you from writing the novel you want to read. If you didn’t like the way I did it, go write your own and you’ll probably use AI to do it. This was the rather harsh commentary I had about Substack. Things like, we don’t really care if it’s human-written or AI-written. We care if it’s worth reading, right? If you’re publishing something that’s worth reading, there’s one Substack I subscribe to that is 100 percent AI-written. No editing passes. It is 100 percent Claude. You know it’s Claude because of Claude’s particular mechanisms. And I don’t care because the information is genuinely useful. I read it and go, I learned something. I don’t care who wrote it. I learned something. Katie Robbert: But that’s you and I, and I don’t disagree. People should be looking at it from that lens. But a lot of the general population is still stuck in the, AI is bad. It’s very black and white. Humans are good, AI is bad, don’t give me AI-written content. And so that’s still the challenge that we’re trying to overcome in the conversation that we’re trying to change. And so if their purpose is, was it written by AI, yes or no, then that’s what we have to work with, because that’s their purpose, not ours. Our opinion of their purpose is very similar to this reader’s opinion of my use of AI. As the old saying goes, opinions are like… well, you can fill in the blanks if, I won’t say it on the podcast. It’s very rude. But the point being is that you do need to figure out why you care if it was written by AI or not. And then you can go ahead and determine, was it high quality? Did I learn something? Was it useful? And then go back to the purpose, like, does it matter if it was written by AI? Now it brings up the bigger conversation, which Chris and I have talked about: AI disclosures and why those are important. And so in your newsletter, you do a very good job every week of disclosing. Here’s how much of this is AI. Here’s how I used AI. And I want to say thank you to the person who called me out because it reminded me this is a good opportunity to start doing my own AI disclosures so that hopefully we don’t continue to find ourselves in the situation of being called names. Christopher S. Penn: And so you cannot rely on them. I will give you a very solid example this week in my personal newsletter. I said, It’s 90 percent written by human. There’s 10 percent written by Claude. And I mark the section: This is what Claude said. And then just for giggles, I put it through the detector. And it said, Congratulations, it’s 100 percent human. I’m like, well, you clearly missed the part where I labeled it this is AI. So anyway, just more ranting about the tooling. The disclosures are important. And I do understand from some perspectives. There are some folks who correctly say they have problems with the ethics of AI companies or the environmental impact of AI. Totally get that, totally fair, completely reasonable. But again, it goes back to what you were saying, which is if we label it—which we all, everyone should be doing—and you are still mad, go read something that isn’t. There is an infinite amount of content out there that’s video or audio. Where I do have a problem and I think is very relevant to the conversation on the topic of AI detection is when it is not labeled or when it is intended to deceive. There is no shortage, for example right now on Instagram and TikTok, of various politicians making faked videos and photos. And thankfully they’re not doing it very well. But, okay, clearly that’s not a… that doesn’t work. But they are. The intent is to deceive. So if we go back to the 5P Framework by Trust Insights, their purpose is deception, right? And therein lies one of the valid reasons to want to use AI detectors to say, is this entity or person attempting to deceive me? Katie Robbert: I’m going to be, I’m going to challenge you on that for a second. Okay, so let’s say I’m a politician and I’m going to use AI. I can almost guarantee I’m not going to state that my purpose is deception. I’m going to state that my purpose is engagement, my purpose is attention. My purpose is oh gosh, anything probably except deception. So it’s interesting because like we can say as an outside observer, well, they’re trying to deceive us. They’re going to say with that lack of self-awareness, this is the way that I saw this thing happen. So, you know, I’m using the tools to reenact it or recreate the way that I see this. So it’s really an educational tool or whatever. So I do feel like it’s interesting that we’re saying their purpose is deception. They’re saying, no, that was never my purpose. Why would I ever want to deceive you? I’m totally honest. I’m showing you what’s possible. I’m showing you the way that I see things. Christopher S. Penn: And this gets us into the extremely deep and sticky morass known as AI ethics, which is again going back to the 5P Framework by Trust Insights. What is the purpose and is the purpose that you think you have aligned with the audience and the goals you’re trying to achieve? Because yes, attention can be a goal, but what’s the purpose behind that attention? Is it to garner more votes? Is it to beat the social media algorithms that are gatekeeping various viewpoints? What is the purpose of creating something that you know is not real? Katie Robbert: You are giving these fictional politicians a lot of credit for that deep thinking and self-awareness, but it does. You brought up AI ethics and Inbox Insights in the same issue this week coming up, where I talk about my process for using AI tools in my writing. You conclude a four-part series on responsible AI using our RAFT framework, and part four being transparency, which is really timely for what we’re talking about. One of the things that you bring up in that four-part series, and it’s brought up in a few of the different issues, is so companies whose mission statement is, and I’m paraphrasing—I apologize, Chris—something along the lines of companies who state out that they’re going to do bad things and they also are doing them, are technically following their own code of ethics. And so it’s the “do as I say, not as I do” or no, it’s the “here’s what: you do what you say and you say what you do, right?” So they do that. So therefore they are following a code of ethics. And that’s where, again, it gets really tricky. But I want to bring that up. Because responsible AI is not black and white. Ethics is not black and white. Christopher S. Penn: So no, and the reason for that is because ethics and morals are often conflated. They are different; they are completely different philosophical disciplines. But in the utilitarian ethics that a lot of the business world works on, “I do what I say and I say what I do” are essentially sort of the heart of that. So going back to the purpose of things like AI detectors, if you say this is real and it’s fake, that is unethical. If you say this is fake and it’s fake, that is ethical, right? It may or may not be moral. That is a different question because morals are based on the culture of the person and the culture that it occurs in. But from an ethics perspective, if I say this is fake and this is fake, I am behaving in an ethical manner. And so where this loops back around is to say, on the part of publishers and creators, we have an ethical obligation to be transparent and disclose. And on the part of AI detectors and the people using them, you have an obligation to be clear about what your purpose is. If your purpose is you just want to feel morally superior to someone else and you say that’s fine, you’re, I think you’re a jerk, but at least it’s clear. If you say that you’re trying to preserve the environment or what have you, but you really just want to feel morally superior, that is itself unethical because you’re not doing as you say and you’re not saying what you do. And so it is incumbent upon everybody using these tools in whatever capacity to disclose why you’re doing it and disclose how the results are going to be used. This is especially true for academia, for law, and for contracts. You have to be clear and say, we are using these tools for this purpose. And here is how we will measure the success of these tools. The performance, the fifth P in the 5P Framework by Trust Insights. You have to declare that, and if you don’t, yourself may have an ethics problem. Katie Robbert: I recently submitted an academic paper, and it was very clear in the instructions that I had to do a very large AI disclosure section on how AI was used to assemble the paper. And in that paper, if I recall correctly, I used AI to do the deep research. I then culled through the deep research to find the relevant parts for writing the paper for which I had a hypothesis. I drafted the paper. I used AI to help me clean up the paper and make it a more coherent story. And then I had to create two images, a graph and another supplemental image, and disclose what parts I used AI on. Here’s the question, though. So back to where we started, what do you do in the situation where you, the human, created the thing the detectors say, no, you didn’t? It’s AI and everybody believes the machines and not you. Like that’s not a matter of ethics anymore. That’s your reputation. Christopher S. Penn: And therein lies the problem with a lot of these detectors. The detectors are pattern matching. And again, we’ll talk about the mathematics of it this week on the live stream. But fundamentally, they’re looking at probabilities. And so if what you are creating, which academic papers in particular have a very specific kind of language to them that is highly formulaic, a pattern matching system—even if it’s 100 percent human-written—is still likely to pick it up. The example I often give is there’s a quote from Star Wars, from The Empire Strikes Back, where Yoda says, “For 800 years have I trained Jedi. My own council will I keep on who is to be trained.” Right? That’s Yoda. If you… if Yoda was to dictate that and then AI was to clean up the grammar, it would say, “I have trained Jedi for 800 years. I will keep my own council on who is to be trained.” Exact same words. AI’s just rearranging the word sequence, which dramatically changes the probabilities. And that second quote, which is still substantially the same as the first one, but with a different word order, will be flagged as AI or more likely be flagged as AI. Because in the process of editing, AI assembles things to the highest level of probability. And so for anybody, if you were doing that—as we often recommend—taking your phone out, doing a voice memo, and then having AI transcribe it and rearrange it, unless you know how to prompt it to preserve your word order, it’s going to change the language and it’s going to get flagged by AI. Even though you have proof from the voice memo itself that what you created was original. So a big part of what creators may want to think about, and this is the prescriptive part, is that I’ve actually talked about this with our friend Carrie Gorgon, who’s a lawyer. You may want to have a system where you preserve or even publish the work product that led to the final work product. I have done this with several of my books now where I publish the absolutely awful-to-listen-to voice recordings, like as I’m driving down the road. And you know, that’s usually in the deluxe edition, if you want to hear me yelling at people in traffic like, get out of the way, jackass. As part of the recordings, you can. But it also provides that provenance and lineage to say, here’s what the final product was manipulated by AI. Yes, here’s the original work product that proves that it’s a human original. Katie Robbert: But I think that also goes back to again, where we started. And you know, the commentary we referenced from Ann is that these tools are word prediction machines that have been trained on human words. We are the ones who taught it. Here are the predictable patterns that we use when we write and when we speak. Therefore, these machines, well or not well, are mimicking the way that we talk and the way that we write. Therefore, those AI detectors are detecting patterns that we taught as humans on our writing. Like it’s very… I feel like you go round and round forever. But the point being is that these tools are dangerous and can be very damaging if used incorrectly, which most people… Are using them incorrectly because they have the wrong purpose. Right? So if their purpose is to, I am angry and want to lash out at the world and I want to tear someone down today, congratulations. You are accomplishing your purpose with your performance. If your purpose, yeah, if your purpose is to like really just understand, then you know it’s going to be a while before these tools get more sophisticated. They’re not very good. Christopher S. Penn: No. And they never will because they’re always going to be reactive to whatever the latest models are capable of doing. It’s interesting. This actually inspires me as part of our upcoming AI for Writers course that we’re assembling for the Trust Insights Academy. But also maybe something that we should include is a skill that can assist people in creating stuff that sounds more like their human version. There are deterministic measures to do that, and maybe we’ll talk about that a little bit on the live stream as well.

Liza Libes is a writer and literary critic at Pens and Poison. Her parents escaped the Soviet Union. She went to Columbia. She found that Columbia's English Department had replaced literature with Marxist theory, postcolonial studies, and critical theory. She's been pushing back ever since.

Liza Libes is a writer and literary critic at Pens and Poison. Her parents escaped the Soviet Union. She went to Columbia. She found that Columbia's English Department had replaced literature with Marxist theory, postcolonial studies, and critical theory. She's been pushing back ever since. We talked about: the teachers who made us both writers; reading Wallace Stevens's The Snowman — out loud, in full — and the seventh grade class that made Liza stand in the snow for an hour to understand it; Hemingway, Ezra Pound, and the fascism problem; what happened to Columbia's English Department and why it matters for publishing; why Marxism is fundamentally an ideology of resentment (Bertrand Russell said it 100 years ago); the novel Yesteryear and what it reveals about contemporary literary self-righteousness; why writing characters who disagree with you is the whole point; the Emily Wilson translation of the Odyssey and what "a complicated man" does to Odysseus's character; and Christopher Nolan's Odyssey film — specifically the Cyclops scene he cut, why it was the scene that defined Odysseus, and why its absence drains the heroism from the entire story.

Amit Chaudhuri joins Adam Biles to discuss his new novel Chateau Rouge, set not in the postcard Paris of Hemingway and Midnight in Paris, but in the neighbourhood around Gare du Nord — a Paris that resists being known, curated, or confirmed.Chaudhuri talks about writing against the "already known" city, drawing on Roland Barthes and the idea of "heritage modernity" to explain why he wanted to deconstruct Paris's status as a museum-piece rather than a lived-in place. He discusses his narrator's disorientation on arrival, the subtle presence of race and visibility in the book, and how global events — the Gilets Jaunes, the Notre Dame fire — pass through the novel as lived, unfinished moments rather than history. The conversation turns, too, to marriage: how a decades-old, unread copy of A Moveable Feast, gifted by his wife, becomes a quiet emotional throughline.Buy Château Rouge: https://www.shakespeareandcompany.com/books/chateau-rouge*Amit Chaudhuri is the author of nine novels, whose ‘languorous, elliptical, beautiful prose is impressively impossible to put in any category at all' (Salman Rushdie).

Marcus Aurelius Anderson sits down with Ed Hinman, Marine infantry officer veteran, public figure protection specialist, historian, and author of The Barbarian in You. Ed shares how his time at the Naval Academy, deployments across Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Africa, and a pivotal reckoning with ego and identity led him to build a life around three core principles: vigor, wonder, and fellowship. Drawing on history, philosophy, and hard experience, Ed makes the case that living a full life is not about optimization — it's about reconnecting with the most primal, truest parts of yourself. The conversation weaves through the creative life, the craft of writing, the mentorship of Steven Pressfield, the wisdom of Montaigne, Emerson, and Marcus Aurelius, and the courage it takes to follow what resonates rather than what looks good on paper. Episode Highlights: 1:54 - Ed and Marcus discuss the mentorship of Steven Pressfield and the discipline required to show up for the creative life 29:44 - Ed introduces his three-part philosophy of vigor, wonder, and fellowship as a framework rooted in how pre-civilized humans actually lived 49:23 - Ed recounts his Marine Corps career, the ego-driven disappointment of deployments that went nowhere, and how psychosomatic pain forced him to ask what he actually wanted 58:58 - Ed and Marcus explore the idea of listening to intuition over empirical evidence, following resonance rather than a prescribed path, and why the barbarian in you is the truest version of yourself Ed Hinman served as an infantry officer in the United States Marine Corps, graduating from the Naval Academy and deploying five times across Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Africa before earning a master's degree in history and building a career in public figure protection with Gavin de Becker's firm. He is the author of The Barbarian in You and the founder of the Barbarian in You blog, where he writes about history, strength, friendship, and the philosophy of living with vigor, wonder, and fellowship.

After a life-changing brain injury forced her to walk away from the career she'd built, Rachel Hemingway spent years rebuilding her life. Rather than giving up on her lifelong passion for creativity, she opened Chapter1 Gallery in Christchurch earlier this year-a space designed to support artists and bring the community together. Now she's behind Suitcase Stories, a unique exhibition featuring 50 Canterbury artists transforming vintage suitcases into one-of-a-kind artworks. Hemingway spoke to John Campbell.
Returning guest Simon Dixon, co-founder of global brand and design agency DixonBaxi, sits down with Radim as the studio approaches its 25th birthday to talk about what actually holds up over a quarter of a century. ~ This is a conversation about comfort without complacency — how a body of work lets you meet the world with strength instead of fear, why Simon has never asked permission or had a mentor, and how "access" quietly determines who gets to be daring in the first place. They trace the throughline from permission to curiosity to gratitude, unpack the real difference between fear and doubt, and land on why taste, judgment, and care will matter more than ever in a world being reshaped by AI.TakeawaysTwenty-five years in, real confidence isn't settled or atrophied — it's comfort earned through scar tissue and decision-makingIt's easy to be daring once you can pay the rent — access and infrastructure quietly gatekeep who gets to take creative risksThere's no such thing as a dead end or a mistake; there's only information about what you've won or haven'tFear and doubt aren't the same thing — doubt is the ache of growth, not a threat to surviveGenerosity and mentoring don't wait for success; Simon took on interns from day one of his careerGrowth happens in layers, not stages — self-focus, collaboration, and generosity all coexist rather than replacing one anotherTaste isn't universal — it's conviction applied to your own work, which is why Hemingway and Jane Austen can both be rightAI won't be a tool bolted onto creativity — it will be the infrastructure everything else runs through Daring Creativity.

Did you know that Ernest Hemingway wrote for the Toronto Star? The iconic cigar-smoking, bull-fighting American writer spent two separate stints living in Canada. It was partly while living and working in Toronto that he developed his stripped-down, sparse writing style. Author and Hemingway expert Terry Fallis reflects on the writer's larger than life reputation and his time spent in Toronto ahead of the upcoming International Hemingway Society Conference. Plus, CBC producer Christine Pagulayan talks about the latest trend to hit the world of romance. Books discussed on this week's show include:And Then There Were None by Agatha ChristieLittle Face by Sophie HannahBefore You Go to Sleep by S. J.

¿Por qué importa la vida de un escritor para entender su obra? En esta conversación , con nuestro amigo Javier Peña, director del Podcast Grandes Infelices, exploramos esa pregunta a través de la vida de grandes autores como Kafka, Virginia Woolf, Hemingway, Pessoa y muchos otros que transformaron su dolor, sus amores y su inconformidad con el mundo en obras inolvidables. Hablamos de la infelicidad como motor creativo, de los libros que cambiaron la literatura y de por qué conocer la biografía de un escritor puede transformar la forma en que leemos sus obras. Una conversación sobre su último libro Tinta Invisible, sobre nuestros vínculos con las historias, creatividad, lectura y la necesidad de encontrar, en los libros, mundos donde sí queremos vivir.
EPISODE 740 - Carter Vance - A story of living, loving and growing up on Canada's Parliament HillIn this engaging episode, author Carter Vance shares his writing journey with host Dave, connecting as fellow Canadians. Originally from the small town of Cobourg, Ontario—famous for its literal Big Apple roadside sculpture and summer beach—Carter credits a high school teacher's encouragement for launching his creative path. She connected him with local cafe owners for poetry readings, sparking his early involvement in plays, school magazines, and submissions to prestigious outlets like Arc Poetry Magazine, which offered a mentorship that honed his skills in audience focus, form, and resilience against rejections.Reflecting on advice he'd give his younger self, Carter emphasizes demystifying publishing, treating writing like a disciplined job—as Stephen King advocates with daily hours—and clarifying one's unique "why" amid abundant content. Creative writing, for him, captures intangible life moments and fosters empathy by letting readers inhabit others' minds, unlike film or music. His diverse career, including policy work in Canada, the UK, Indonesia, and Parliament (as a House leader staffer from 2015-2019 and Senate role), humanized politicians as flawed individuals, revealing unexpected alliances, young staffers' influence, and information's power in decision-making.Carter's debut novel, Smaller Animals (released November), draws from these experiences, following young Canadian political staffers' relationships and growth amid power dynamics—"smaller animals" behind the spotlight. Comparable to Arthur Phillips' Prague, Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises, or Sally Rooney's works, it appeals to politics enthusiasts and character-driven readers alike, requiring no deep parliamentary knowledge. He discusses staff autonomy, grunt work evolving to info control, and hopes readers connect personally while gaining insights into unseen influencers.Amid recent Canadian tragedies, Carter finds hope in political maturity, rising public engagement, and openness to change. Upcoming: a short story in Plentitude magazine, more writing, and ideas like a Berlin Wall saga. Key Takeaway: Writing thrives on encouragement, discipline, and authentic voice—craft stories that build empathy and unique perspectives, turning personal experiences into shared connections.https://cartervance.ca/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca
Most people think they're just getting older. The afternoon crashes. The stubborn belly fat. The aching joints. Brain fog. Poor sleep. Low energy. Rising cholesterol. Increasing blood pressure.But what if these aren't simply signs of aging at all?In this episode, Dr. Thomas Hemingway explains why insulin resistance and poor metabolic health has quietly become one of the biggest health challenges of our time—affecting an estimated 88–93% of American adults who are not metabolically healthy—and why it often develops years before diabetes is ever diagnosed. More importantly, you'll learn why insulin resistance is not a life sentence. It's a signal.

I had sixty-thousand words then I had twenty-thousand, and I still did not have a book. This Thursday's episode is about how I finally learned the difference, and it's the most useful thing I know about the work.The manuscript had frameworks. It had seven tidy maps. It had the warm, encouraging, here-are-your-steps voice I'd spent years building. And every time I read it start to finish, something was wrong and I couldn't name it. That's not writer's block. It's quieter and worse: the slow realization that a pile of genuinely good material is not a book. In Vivian Gornick's terms, I had a situation. I didn't have a story.The way out came from Hemingway, broke and young in a cold Paris garret, who when he couldn't get started would tell himself, “Write the truest sentence that you know.” Just one. But here's the part everyone skips: he also cut to it. Whenever he caught himself writing elaborately, presenting something, he'd throw that ornament away, what he called the scrollwork, and start from the first true simple sentence. The truest sentence isn't something you add. It's what's left when you cut the performance off.So I went hunting through my thirty-seven thousand words for the one place I'd stopped performing and actually said the thing. Then I found the sentence. Everything that served it stayed. All seven maps, the whole coaching voice blog posts, went over the side as ballast, and the book finally floated—well, it's floating.You're allowed to not know your true sentence yet. You almost never do going in. You write the messy draft precisely to find the one true thing hiding in it. You're allowed to have a pile that isn't a book yet, that's just the middle, everyone's middle looks like a pile. And you're allowed to cut what you love. In fact you have to.Listen above. Then, if you want, reply and tell me the one true sentence your project is really about, or the one you suspect you've been avoiding.“The truest sentence isn't something you add to your draft. It's what's left when you cut the performance off.”The Difficulty lands Mondays, Thursdays (the working writer), and sometimes Fridays and sometimes Saturdays (from the workshop). If this named something you've been circling, subscribe, and forward it to someone with a pile that's trying to become a book. More at chadprevost.com. This is a public episode.

Welcome to our fifth episode celebrating the centenary of The Sun Also Rises! On today's show, we welcome the always excellent David Wyatt to explore the way Hemingway represents “thinking” in the novel.Although Hemingway may not be as celebrated as Faulkner, Joyce, Proust, and Woolf at depicting human consciousness, in this episode David Wyatt guides us through crucial moments in The Sun Also Rises to show Hemingway's subtle power in dramatizing thought in action.Wyatt takes us from Jake's bedroom to his self-conscious prayer, to his drunken reading of Turgenev in bed, to the excitement of the bullring in order to reveal how the reader gains access to Jake's interiority, making The Sun Also Rises a psychological novel in disguise. As with all of the The Sun Also Rises episodes this year, we enjoy the legendary actor William Hurt reading—in this episode, from Jake's “I thought I had paid for everything” meditation in chapter 14, courtesy of our friends at Simon & Schuster Audio.Audio excerpt courtesy of Simon & Schuster Audio from The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway, read by William Hurt.

2026 marks the centenary of Ernest Hemingway's novel ‘The Sun also Rises', which brought Pamplona's San Fermín festival international fame. Yet beyond its place in Hemingway's iconic novel and the yearly international news reports of tourists injured or even dying in the running of the bulls, the fiestas of San Fermín has also served as a symbolic battleground in Navarre's unresolved identity conflict. As the capital of Navarre, Pamplona sits at the intersection of two competing national projects: Basque nationalists regard the region as an inseparable part of the historic Basque homeland, while Navarrese regionalists and Spanish unionists insist on Navarre's distinct political identity and institutions. Every July, those rival visions spill into the festival through disputes over flags, language, official ceremonies and the public symbolism of the encierro. Today on Sobremesa Podcast we look to go beyond the cliches and instagram posts generated around Sanfermin and look at its deeper cultural, historical and political significance. To do so, I am joined once again by Tulane University's Brittany Kennedy - an expert in Basque culture. If you like what we are producing and want to keep the podcast sustainable, please consider donating to our buy me a coffee page. The link is the show notes. Okay, I hope you enjoy my interview with Brittany.

Join us for the second of three installments of One True Book Club '26! In this series of episodes, we are reading the Hemingway-relevant selection, Under Fire by Henri Barbusse, the classic French WWI novel published in 1916.This episode covers chapters 10-19 of the novel. We discuss how Barbusse finds moments of unexpected humanity amidst the carnage of warfare and his subtle characterization of the platoon, including the narrator himself. We also cover his metafictional “Swear Words” chapter, where Barbusse reflects on a Realist writer attempts to describe the indescribable.We also connect this brutal novel to Hemingway's writing, to other modernist works, to Tim O'Brien's The Things They Carried… and even to The Shawshank Redemption. We are using the Penguin Classics edition with an Introduction written by future One True Podcast guest, Professor Jay Winter.
What if one of the most important proteins for healthy aging is also one of the most overlooked? Most people think collagen is simply a beauty supplement for smoother skin and fewer wrinkles. But collagen is actually the structural foundation of your entire body--skin, joints, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, bones, and connective tissues. The reality is that collagen production begins declining as early as your twenties, and that decline may contribute to many of the symptoms people mistakenly accept as "normal aging."In this episode, Dr. Thomas Hemingway dives into the science of collagen, what the latest research says about its benefits for skin, hair, nails, joints, cartilage, and bone health, and how to maximize its effectiveness with key nutrients like vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, glucosamine, and chondroitin. You'll learn practical strategies to support healthy collagen production, discover who benefits most from supplementation, and hear real-world examples of how collagen can be part of a comprehensive healthy aging and longevity plan. If your goal is to look better, move better, recover better, and stay active for decades to come, this is an episode you won't want to miss!
