HAPPY NEW GIRLIE YEAR!!

Get in babe, it is Sexy September, a month dedicated to you feelingstronger, healthier, and hotter from the inside out.  Today we are starting off with identity. Not what you do,who you decide you're being. We will chat about why motivation never comes first, why your actions are votes for the person you believe you are, and a simple reframe — "what would SHE do" — that changes everything once you start using it daily. I am giving you the shifts I used to change how I saw andinteracted with myself. Fair warning, they are not flowery, Pinterest worthy quotes…  In this episode, we will cover: -      Why identity change comes before motivation, not after-      The psychology behind why every action is a "vote" for who you're becoming-      The "become her" reframe and how to use itstarting today-      A first look at the three identity shifts to change your mindset — going deeper on the live call-      Three questions to sit with all week to kick off Sexy September Use the link below to join the Live Zoom Call (Saturday,September 5th at 9 am ET) or to grab the Live Replay:  Resources Mentioned: Sexy September Zoom / Recording linkssssss:  JOIN  FOR ALL SESSIONS:https://newyorksportandfitness.lpages.co/sexy-september-4-week-series/ JOIN FOR 1 WEEK:https://newyorksportandfitness.lpages.co/sexy-september-weekly/ Schedule a Session: https://www.heathermaio.com/coaching-options Not Another Diet Book: https://www.amazon.com/Not-Another-Diet-Book-learning/dp/B0B45Q4CLH/   

Every conversation about a sexless marriage gets pointed at the woman. Low desire, hormones, resentment, the mental load, she's the one who's supposed to explain herself. Nobody asks what happens on the other side of the bed, and today I sat down with men's coach Mike Elliott to find out.Mike works with high-performing men who look successful on paper and feel quietly disconnected underneath. In this conversation we get into why she rejects him and he assumes she doesn't want sex anymore, when the real story is closer to this: she doesn't feel seen, and her body has been scanning for safety the whole time. We talk about the difference between yang sex and yin sex, the exact instruction Mike gives every man he coaches (slow down, three times), and why a man who can't hold his own feelings can't hold hers either.Mike also gets personal. He tells me about the night in Whistler when he lost his erection with his own partner and spiraled into a shame he'd been avoiding his whole adult life, and what happened when she refused to let him run from it. If you have ever gone quiet in your own marriage, present in the house and absent in the relationship, this conversation names exactly what's happening in his body and gives you language for it. Part two is coming, so stay close.Join the waitlist for my upcoming coaching program for midlife men HERE.

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Monday!! So.. we (Alex & Jules) found ourselves in some heat over our video games after kids take from Friday, so we had to get a guy's POV.. and you guys? He may have even HOTTER takes. Turns out Harrison was a GAMER gamer back in the day (18-hour Grand Theft Auto Sundays.. we have questions), but as a dad he has rules: there are more productive ways to decompress, never let it eat family time, and play when everyone's asleep. Then Jules asks the question that will surely put us back in the comments: are video games just Cocomelon for adults?! But before ALL that: it's officially HYROX race week for the dads (we're heading to DC later this week!) We settle the great seasonal debate: when does summer ACTUALLY end? Alex says Labor Day, Harrison says September 21st because "the sun does not lie." Plus Saturn Return (why your life flips upside down between 26 and 29.. planets, maybe!) and Tinx's 3-articles-a-day challenge. We're in. On the home front: Tate had her first gymnastics class

It's virgo season and it's almost Megan's birthday! This week, Madi helps Megan reflect as she celebrates another year of getting older, wiser, + hotter. Happy Birthday Megan!Join us over on Patreon for bonus content!IGThe Fuzzy PodMeganMadiYoutubeThe Fuzzy Pod

Dating after divorce isn't a downgrade. It's the first time you get to pick a partner with your eyes wide open, and that's exactly what I'm digging into this episode.I walk through what's genuinely different about dating in midlife: the full history you're carrying, the fact that your intentions have shifted from figuring yourself out to actually knowing what you want, and why a smaller dating pool raises the stakes on every single date. I get into my biggest pet peeve, texting standing in for real conversation, the physical changes that change how intimacy actually works, and why the terrain feels rougher this time, from rebuilding a social circle from scratch to navigating kids, exes, and logistics that never existed the first time around.I also get into the part nobody prepares you for: dating later in life comes with real advantages. No ticking clock. No pressure. The ability to filter for character instead of potential, because you've watched enough people over enough decades to spot the patterns early. And a bonus round of tips for anyone braving the apps, including the photos that help you and the ones that hurt you.If you're dating after divorce right now, approach it with excitement instead of fear. Yes, there are moments that suck. There are also more moments of meeting new people, learning new things, and trying activities you never would have imagined earlier in life.Join the waitlist for my upcoming coaching program for midlife men HERE.

AP records the same voice through four very different microphones and sends the files around without revealing what they are. George, Robert, Robbo and a bunch of trusted audio ears rank them purely on what they hear. Then the mics are revealed. The result is a pretty good reminder that price, reputation and specifications only tell you so much. What matters is how a microphone actually sounds on the voice and for the job you need it to do. And just to make the point beautifully, Robbo put the overall winner dead last. LIBSYN FULL DESCRIPTION It's time to Guess That Mic. AP started out making a sample of one microphone for someone. As tends to happen around here, that simple job turned into four microphones, multiple preamps, a pile of audio files and a blind listening test involving ten people. The idea was simple. Listen to four mystery microphones on AP's voice. Don't worry about the badge, the price or what you think you're supposed to like. Just rank them. The result? Almost nobody agreed. George liked 3, 4, 2, 1. Robert went 4, 3, 2, 1. Robbo went 2, 1, 4, 3. And the more people AP asked, the more interesting the results became. Once all ten votes were scored, the final result was: 1st, Mic 3, 27 points Equal 2nd, Mic 2, 25 points Equal 2nd, Mic 4, 25 points 4th, Mic 1, 23 points So what were they? THE BIG REVEAL Mic 1 Microtech Gefell M 92.1 S tube condenser with M7 capsule Recorded through a Grace m101 Mic 2 Microtech Gefell M 930 art Mic 3 Austrian Audio OC818 Mic 4 AKG C414 EB with nylon CK12 capsule Mics 2, 3 and 4 were recorded through a Neve 1073. No processing or high pass filtering was deliberately added to the comparison. And yes, the Austrian Audio OC818 won the overall vote. Robbo ranked it last. Which rather neatly sums up the entire episode. This was never intended to be a scientific microphone test. It was about something arguably more useful, what happens when people actually listen without knowing the name or price printed on the microphone. A mic one person describes as smooth and full, someone else hears as dark. One person hears useful presence, someone else hears too much top end. One listener's first choice becomes another listener's fourth. HOW EVERYONE VOTED George Whittam: 3, 4, 2, 1 Robert Marshall: 4, 3, 2, 1 Robbo: 2, 1, 4, 3 Chris Gates: 2, 3, 4, 1 Simon Murphy: 1, 2, 4, 3 AJ: 4, 3, 2, 1 Matt McKenzie Smith: 3, 4, 2, 1 Paul Baxter: 3, 1, 2, 4 Matty from Sonic Playground: 1, 2, 3, 4 Mike Aiton: 1, 4, 3, 2 MORE COMMENTS FROM THE SHOOTOUT Mike Aiton Mic 1: Sounds really good. Not over hyped anywhere with a good natural midrange. Mike guessed it might be a 416 and picked it as his favourite "by a country mile". Mic 2: Sibilant around 7.5 kHz, less lower mids and consequently less full sounding. Definitely not Mike's cup of tea. Mic 3: Subdued top end with a very full bottom end. Mike wondered whether it might be a ribbon. Mic 4: Mike thought this sounded like a TLM 103, noting the bass lift and saying he would probably reduce some of that for AP's voice. Matt McKenzie Smith Mic 1: Matt heard harmonic resonances around 470 Hz and 980 Hz, plus some additional energy around 2.5 kHz. Mic 2: "Sounds lovely", with a little more prominence around the 4 to 5 kHz area. Mic 3: Hotter in the low end and sounding great, although Matt noticed a prominent phase offset. Mic 4: Similar phase offset, along with great low end extension. Matt's final ranking was: 3, 4, 2, 1 And perhaps that is the real conclusion of the whole exercise. There isn't a microphone that everybody is going to prefer. The expensive one isn't automatically better. The one with the flattering frequency response on paper isn't automatically better. And a microphone that sounds gorgeous solo might not necessarily be the one you'd choose when that voice has to fight its way through a commercial mix. Pick the microphone that works for your voice and your job. What a bloody novel concept. Thanks to Tri Booth and Austrian Audio. Recorded using Source Connect. Edited by Andrew Peters.

Part two picks up right where we left off, and this time I get into the parts of ethical non-monogamy most people never actually see. Ali walks me through the sex-positive spaces she has spent years exploring: a private sex club in Montreal, an underground play party in Mexico, and a temple space in Europe that she calls her best experience yet.We get into what actually happens inside these spaces: the consent rules, the safety measures, what it costs, and what it feels like to say no over and over again as a single woman in the room. Ali also answers my three rapid-fire questions, including her definition of sex, her best orgasm, and a fantasy she has never acted on.This conversation is not about convincing anyone to try any of this. It is about showing you what these spaces actually look like once you strip away the assumptions, so you can decide for yourself what curiosity means to you.In This Episode:0:00 – Recap: Picking Up Where We Left Off0:38 – Karen's Curiosity About Sex Parties2:06 – Inside a Sex Club: Rules and Layout5:33 – Consent Mechanics in the Orgy Room6:15 – Ali and Her Partner's Night at the Club8:54 – Her First Private Play Party in Mexico12:21 – How Consent Gets Set at a Play Party13:52 – The Temple Space: Her Best Experience Yet17:03 – The Desire-Sharing Circle18:09 – Is It All BDSM?

Bonds may no longer provide the shelter investors have expected. Our CIO and Chief U.S. Equity Strategist Mike Wilson talks about the changing relationship between inflation, yields and risk.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Bonds may no longer provide the shelter investors have exMike Wilson: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Mike Wilson, Morgan Stanley's CIO and Chief U.S. Equity Strategist. Today on the podcast I'll be discussing the shifting landscape in macro markets.It's Monday, August 24th at 11:30am in New York. So, let's get after it.Over the past few weeks we've seen large moves in rates, oil, gold and crypto. What does it mean for equities? First, investors are still treating these markets as separate stories, when they are all part of the same regime shift that began with COVID. More than six years ago, in the depths of that recession, I argued investors should prepare for the return of inflation. That was a very out of consensus view. At that time, the world was obsessed with deflation, the 10-year Treasury yield was below 1 percent, stocks had been hit hard, and gold was sitting around $1,500 an ounce. But the policy response to COVID – what I called helicopter money – changed the game. It marked the end of the 40-year disinflationary regime and a very different investment environment for investors to navigate. It is also the foundation of our run it hot thesis. In a world where inflation has returned, cycles are likely to be shorter, policy more reactive, and leadership changes more frequent. That is very different from the 1982-to-2020 period. Then falling inflation and falling rates allowed economic cycles to stretch for eight or 10 years. We are now in a world that looks more like the post-World War II era: stronger nominal GDP growth, more persistent inflation, higher economic volatility, and a bond market that is no longer the tailwind it used to be for risk assets. In short, the great secular bull market in bonds ended with COVID. This has huge implications for investors of all stripes. My near term view on rates is also different from the mainstream. A lot of investors are saying rates are rising because of debt and deficits. I am not dismissing those factors. But I think the bigger driver is strong nominal GDP growth, which really is the result of aggressive fiscal policy since the pandemic. We are in an era of fiscal dominance, and in that environment the Treasury and the Fed are forced to find ways to fund deficits without breaking markets. That is how I interpret the Treasury's recent buyback activity. I don't think this is quantitative easing or yield-curve control. The scale of the program is not large enough. Instead, it's just another tool to maintain market functioning and stable financial conditions. So when I look at the large move in precious metals and crypto last week, to me it suggests that markets believe this is just a first step toward larger intervention – if financial conditions tighten further. For equities, this all reinforces the quality rotation we have been recommending. Since the peak rate of change in earnings revisions breadth in June, led by Semiconductors, the market has gone through a significant leadership change. Quality factors have started to outperform after a year of lagging, which is exactly what we would expect as a post-recession recovery matures. High free cash flow, high gross margins, stable sales growth, and low capex-to-sales factors have all been working. Some investors are frustrated that the S&P 500 barely sold off during the historic momentum unwind. But if quality is coming back into favor, that makes perfect sense. The S&P 500 is one of the highest-quality benchmarks in the world. Leadership at the stock level may continue to morph, but index leadership for the S&P is unlikely to fade – and may even get stronger. The near-term risk remains oil. Brent crude prices have moved higher over the past couple of weeks. And rising oil has historically been a much more reliable headwind for equities than falling oil has been a tailwind. Our still constructive equity view does not require crude to collapse. It simply requires crude to stop rising. If oil spikes again because the Strait of Hormuz remains closed, that could pressure input costs, push yields and bond volatility higher, and create another round of market instability. Bottom line, the run it hot regime is alive and well. It supports equities. But it also shortens cycles, increases rotations, and forces investors to be more tactical at times. I currently like large-cap quality stocks, AI adopters, and the S&P 500 over international peers. Hedge the oil risk with energy stocks and keep your head on a swivel as we navigate the next phase of this recovery and bull market. Thanks for tuning in; I hope you found it informative and useful. Let us know what you think by leaving us a review. And if you find Thoughts on the Market worthwhile, tell a friend or colleague to try it out!

Recorded- August 20, 2026 Uploaded- August 22, 2026   We spend a lot of time on the Association and get distracted by a no-hitter in progress.

Europe has been warming significantly faster than the global average, and this summer's heatwaves once again prompted politicians and environmental activists to point to fossil-fuel emissions as the obvious culprit. In this episode, Dr. David Legates examines a new study that suggests there is another important piece of the story: Europe's remarkable success in reducing air pollution.Since 1980, Europe has dramatically reduced sulfur dioxide and other aerosol emissions. Those pollutants brought serious health and environmental costs, but some of them also reflected sunlight and increased cloud reflectivity, producing a cooling effect. As Europe cleaned up its air, that cooling influence diminished. The new research suggests that the resulting changes may have contributed not only directly to regional warming, but also indirectly by altering atmospheric circulation patterns that favor persistent summer heat and heatwaves.So, could one of the reasons Europe has warmed so rapidly be that Europeans successfully eliminated some of the pollution that had been keeping temperatures down?In this episode, Dr. Legates examines the new study, the science of aerosols, Europe's dramatic decline in sulfur emissions, the difference between weather and climate, and what this complicated story means for the way we talk about climate change. We also consider a question that environmental policy rarely acknowledges: what happens when solving one environmental problem changes another part of the climate system in an unexpected way?https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1029/2026GL122424https://www.nationalreview.com/news/european-heat-wave-driven-by-cleaner-air-u-k-climate-office-study-finds/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/07/22/heatwaves-caused-by-fall-in-pollution/Visit our podcast resource page: https://cornwallalliance.org/listen%20to%20our%20podcast%20created%20to%20reign/Our work is entirely supported by donations from people like you.

Everyone pictures the same scene when they think about mismatched desire: he's reaching, she's pulling away. I want you to picture the opposite couple today, the ones where she's the one lying in bed hoping and he's the one already half asleep.That reversal comes with a specific kind of shame nobody names out loud. She starts wondering if she's too much. He starts wondering if something is wrong with his masculinity. Neither one chose that script, and neither one did anything wrong by living inside it.I'm walking through why the old idea that men are simply wired to want more sex doesn't hold up under real research, what's actually driving a lower desire partner's pullback in midlife (stress, exhaustion, hormones, and a wiring difference most couples never learn), and the real reason this dynamic quietly wrecks relationships. Spoiler: it's never the gap itself. It's the silence around it.If you've been in this exact bed, at this exact hour, wondering what's wrong with you or with your partner, this episode gives you the plain, unfiltered picture, and a real way to talk about it.In This Episode:0:00 – The Assumption We Never Question0:09 – Welcome to Taboo to Truth0:29 – Picture This: Who's Really Reaching in Bed?1:20 – Mismatched Desire Is Normal, Not a Red Flag1:51 – The Untold Twist: When She Wants It More2:13 – Debunking the "Men Just Want More" Myth4:12 – The Shame Loop: Her Side and His Side6:03 – What's Really Driving the Gap6:34 – Silence Is the Real Relationship Killer7:05 – The Reframe: What Do You Actually Need?7:45 – Closing Thoughts, CTA & Sign-OffTo watch the video version of this episode, head over to YouTube!About The Host:Karen Bigman, a Sexual Health Alliance Certified Sex Educator, Life, and Menopause Coach, tackles the often-taboo subject of sexuality with a straightforward and candid approach.

Dorsa Jalalian led the development of the City of Toronto's Thermal Comfort Guidelines, which treat climate adaptation as a design problem measured at street level. Our conversation covers Toronto's shift from a winter-focused planning identity to summers projected to hit 55 days above 30 degrees by mid-century. Jalalian argues for shade as public infrastructure, not amenity, and unpacks why "just plant more trees" runs into underground utilities, narrow rights-of-way, and retrofit costs. Jalalian is Associate, Senior Urban Designer and Stakeholder Engagement Lead at DIALOG. Her work focuses on embedding thermal performance into design from the earliest planning stages, treating shade equity as a core urban design issue. This conversation matters because it turns climate adaptation from an abstract global problem into a concrete design practice, one sidewalk at a time. ---- Show Notes can be found at https://theimperativepodcast.com/  The IMPERATIVE Podcast is a production of WisePath Media Inc.  

Open relationships get a bad reputation. People hear "ethical non-monogamy" and assume it's a free pass to cheat, or a fantasy dressed up with a fancier name. I sat down with Ali Imperiale, who documents her open relationship and sex-positive travels for her audience, and she walked me through what actually happens when two people agree to rewrite the rules together.We get into the real version of ethical non-monogamy: the renegotiating, the boundary that got crossed, the sex therapist she called in, and the moment she developed feelings for someone outside her primary relationship and had to figure out what that meant. Ali is candid about the difference between a fantasy threesome and an actual one, including her first experience and the surprise threesome she planned for her partner's birthday..This conversation strips the shame off every part of it: the labels, the logistics, the awkward moments. If you have ever been curious about non-monogamy, polyamory, or what a threesome actually looks like, this episode gives you the plain, unfiltered picture. Part two is coming, so stay close.NOTE: Due to technical difficulties during recording, the audio and video quality in this episode may vary from our usual standard.

If you're exhausted, your gut is expanding, your motivation is gone, and your sex drive has quietly disappeared, someone has probably told you it's male menopause. In this episode of Taboo To Truth, I explain why the term Male Menopause isn't medically accurate, how men's hormonal aging differs from women's, what low testosterone actually feels like versus what just looks like it, and when a symptom deserves a doctor instead of a supplement. I get into the research on testosterone replacement therapy, the difference between libido and erectile function, the tools I recommend for supporting sexual function, and what happens in a relationship when desire changes and nobody talks about it. Your sexuality isn't controlled by one number on a blood test, and getting older doesn't mean the end of desire, pleasure, or satisfying sex.In This Episode:00:00 Intro00:13 Welcome to Taboo to Truth00:35 What We're Covering Today01:41 Does Male Menopause Actually Exist?03:22 Male vs. Female Hormonal Aging04:30 What Low Testosterone Actually Feels Like05:42 Other Causes That Mimic "Male Menopause"06:46 Testosterone, Desire & the 2017 Trials08:24 Libido vs. Erections: Two Different Systems09:51 Tools That Support Sexual Function11:27 How This Affects Your Relationship12:37 When to See a Doctor13:44 How Low T Is Actually Diagnosed15:06 TRT: Benefits & Risks16:49 What Else You Can Do18:17 So...

In part two of my conversation with Susan Bratton and Karl Eberhardt, we go even deeper into what actually holds a non-monogamous relationship together. We talk about why communication can make or break an open relationship, what Karl learned about himself after six years of practicing polyamory, and the concept they call "Team Sweetie" — showing up for each other through illness, grief, and everything in between. Susan shares her free "Alchemy of Intimacy" guide for couples considering this kind of relationship, and we get into the practical side of staying safe: their fluid-bonded screening process, the STI most people have never heard of, and why standard insurance testing doesn't catch everything. We close with what it really means to love your partners through their mistakes.In This Episode:0:00 – Welcome Back: Picking Up Where We Left Off0:24 – Intro: Redefining Life & Sex After 500:46 – Why Good Communication Makes (or Breaks) an Open Relationship3:35 – Six Years In: What Polyamory Taught Karl About Himself4:59 – "Team Sweetie": Showing Up for Each Other Through Crisis7:15 – Susan's Advice: The Alchemy of Intimacy & 10 Rules for Success8:45 – Karl's Advice: Build the Framework Before You Open Up10:23 – The Screening Document: Where New Partners Start11:07 – Inside the STI Testing Protocol: Mycoplasma, Incubation Periods & Protex Health14:00 – Nobody's Perfect: Loving Your Partners Through Mistakes15:08 – The Testing Gap: Why Insurance Won't Screen for Herpes17:09 – Final TakeawaysTo watch the video version of this episode, head over to YouTube!Testing before getting physical is non-negotiable for me — ProDx Health makes it easy.

I'm tackling one of the most avoided conversations in long-term relationships: how to actually bring up sex with your partner. In this episode, I break down why this conversation feels so impossible — the shame, the missing communication skills, the fear of rejection — and I hand you exact scripts to use instead of the accusatory lines that shut your partner down before you even start. I walk through how to open "the conversation about the conversation," deeper questions to ask once you're talking, and what to do if you get shut down. Couples with better sex lives have better, longer-lasting relationships, and this episode gives you the words to get there.The antidote to a boring sex life isn't trying harder, it's trying something new together — Take the quiz at arya.fyi and use code: TRUTH15 for 15% off their guided intimacy subscription at https://arya.fyi/start?rfsn=8333683.c9f861In This Episode:0:00 – The Words to Use0:14 – Welcome to Taboo to Truth0:40 – The Slow Fade: When You Stop Noticing Each Other1:15 – Reframing It: This Isn't Really About Sex1:45 – Why the Conversation Is So Hard2:20 – The Lines That Put Your Partner on the Defensive2:55 – Language Shifts: What to Say Instead3:45 – The 3 Rules: Curiosity, "I" Statements, Tone4:15 – Subscribe + Grab the Pleasure Playbook4:35 – Starting "The Conversation About the Conversation"5:30 – Going Deeper: Questions to Reconnect6:05 – If You Get Shut Down (And When to Get Help)6:25 – Final Thought: Better Sex, Better RelationshipsTo watch the video version of this episode, head over to YouTube!About The Host:Karen Bigman, a Sexual Health Alliance Certified Sex Educator, Life, and Menopause Coach, tackles the often-taboo subject of sexuality with a straightforward and candid approach.

Does your upstairs always feel 5 to 10 degrees hotter than the rest of your house? You're definitely not alone—and it doesn't always mean your air conditioner is broken.In this episode, we explain why second floors naturally run warmer during the summer, how heat rises, why your attic plays such a big role, and what your HVAC system is actually designed to do. We also cover common mistakes homeowners make when trying to cool the upstairs, along with practical solutions that can make a real difference.Whether you're constantly adjusting the thermostat or wondering if it's time to replace your system, this episode will help you understand what's normal, what's not, and when it's time to call in a professional.If you've ever said, "Why is it so much hotter upstairs?" this episode is for you.

Climate change is already affecting our health, often in ways we don't realise. Beyond hotter summers and more frequent heatwaves, it is creating conditions that allow some infectious diseases to spread, extending allergy seasons and increasing health risks linked to extreme weather.In this episode of ECDC: On Air, Dr Celine Gossner, Deputy Head of Unit for One Health-related Diseases at the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC), expert in food, water, vector-borne and zoonotic diseases, and Aleksandra Kaźmierczak - Expert in Climate Change and Human Health at the European Environment Agency (EEA), discuss how a changing climate is reshaping health across Europe.From the spread of mosquitoes and ticks into new regions to the growing risks of food- and water-borne diseases, they explain how climate change is affecting infectious disease risks. They also explore the wider health impacts of rising temperatures, floods, wildfires, air pollution and changing pollen seasons, and why these changes are already affecting communities today, not just future generations.The conversation also looks at how Europe is preparing for climate-sensitive health threats through climate adaptation, surveillance, early warning systems and cross-sector collaboration, while highlighting practical steps individuals can take to protect themselves.-----In this episode:- Why climate change is a public health issue- How climate change is affecting infectious disease risks- Mosquito-borne diseases, tick-borne diseases and Vibrio infections- Heatwaves, floods, wildfires and respiratory health- The European Climate and Health Observatory- How Europe is preparing for climate-sensitive health threats- What individuals can do to reduce health risks-----Links:Latest ECDC news on heatwaves and healthECDC's guide to a safe summer-----Learn more:

Non-monogamy is one of the topics I get asked about more than almost anything else, so in this episode I sit down with Susan Bratton and Karl Eberhardt to dig into what open relationships, polyamory, and relationship anarchy actually look like day to day — not the theory, the lived experience. We talk about how to know you're ready to open a relationship, the STI screening protocol that makes it work, how jealousy and compersion actually show up, and the moment a 35-year marriage nearly ended over what gets called "husband thievery." We also get into how an adult daughter found out her parents were non-monogamous in one short conversation, and how a "summer boy toy" earned a promotion to full-time boyfriend. Whether you're curious, skeptical, or already living this life, this conversation is going to challenge some assumptions.Mentioned in this episode: Testing before getting physical is non-negotiable for me — ProDx Health makes it easy.

The reason your marriage is sexless has nothing to do with sex. If you think a lack of intimacy in your relationship is a sex problem, I need you to hear this — it's almost never about the bedroom.In this episode, I break down emotional availability: what it really means, why so many good, hardworking, faithful men struggle with it, and how childhood shapes the way we handle conflict as adults. I explain the biology behind emotional shutdown, walk through attachment styles — secure, anxious, avoidant, and fearful-avoidant — and show why emotional safety is the real path to physical intimacy for most women. Then I give you five practical shifts to become more emotionally reachable, plus real scripts you can use tonight.This isn't about blame. It's about understanding the blueprint you were handed — so you can build something better.Join the waitlist for my upcoming coaching program for midlife men: https://taboototruth.wixforms.com/f/7424226439106397420In This Episode:0:00 - Cold Open: "It's Almost Never About the Bedroom"0:20 - Welcome to Taboo to Truth1:05 - The Emotionally Unavailable Man: What Today's Episode Covers2:15 - "He's a Great Guy, But I Can't Get Close to Him"3:45 - What Emotional Availability Actually Means5:30 - Real Examples: What He Says vs. What She Hears7:15 - How Boys Are Taught to Suppress Emotion9:15 - The Biology of Shutdown: Flooding, Adrenaline & the Amygdala11:00 - What Are You Really Protecting?12:00 - Attachment Styles: Secure, Anxious, Avoidant & Fearful-Avoidant15:30 - Your Brain Can Change: Neuroplasticity Explained16:45 - Why Sexless Marriages Are Rarely About Sex19:00 - The 5 Shifts to Become Emotionally Available21:15 - Real Scripts: What to Say Instead22:10 - The Client Story: "I Thought I Had a Sex Problem"22:35 - Final Thoughts & Coaching WaitlistWant a deeper look?

Episode 389 Europe is burning through another summer of extreme heat. Temperatures are soaring across the continent, wildfires are forcing mass evacuations in France and Spain, and scientists warn that heatwaves are becoming more frequent, more intense and longer-lasting as the climate warms.  The fires are changing too. Hotter, drier conditions are creating larger and more destructive wildfires. Some are even generating their own weather systems, pyrocumulonimbus thunderstorms, in regions we'd never seen before. Find out what is driving Europe's escalating heat and wildfire crisis, and whether district cooling networks could help cities stay livable in a much hotter future.  Rowan Hooper and Penny Sarchet are joined by Alec Luhn and Michael Le Page.

A powerful heat dome is expected to bring some of California's hottest temperatures of the year, with triple-digit heat across much of the Central Valley and interior regions. Forecasters warn that extreme heat, low humidity, dry vegetation, and gusty winds could increase wildfire danger as the state enters a critical fire period.

Most men would rather suffer in silence than admit they have a problem in the bedroom —Let's change that. On this episode of Taboo To Truth, I sat down with Jeff Abraham, CEO of Promescent, to talk about one of the most common yet least discussed issues in men's sexual health: premature ejaculation. We get into the real clinical definition of PE, why the "arousal gap" between men and women makes this a near-universal issue, and why anxiety — not selfishness — is usually driving the problem. Jeff breaks down the physiological and psychological causes of PE, why shame keeps so many men from seeking help, and why over 4,000 doctors recommend Promescent's Delay Spray. We also cover how the product actually works, how to use it correctly, dosing and titration, safety data from 3 million bottles sold, and how it compares to Viagra. Jeff gets personal too, sharing his own story of turning 69, how porn distorts expectations for young men, and the reality of the refractory period as we age. We close out talking about female pleasure, non-ejaculatory orgasms, and why using every tool available in the bedroom is nothing to be ashamed of. This is a candid, funny, and genuinely useful conversation for any man — or any partner of a man — who wants better sex and less anxiety about it.Use this link for 15% off Delay Spray: https://promescent.sjv.io/QY44bYIn This Episode:00:00 — The Silent Struggle Millions of Men Face 00:33 — Podcast Intro & Meet Your Host 01:05 — Welcome Jeff Abraham, CEO of Promescent 02:10 — What Really Counts as Premature Ejaculation 04:15 — The Arousal Gap & Why Anxiety Kills Intimacy 06:45 — Physical vs. Psychological Causes of PE 09:00 — Breaking the Stigma Around Men's Sexual Health 11:00 — Kegels, Combo Therapy & Why Urologists Trust Promescent 14:00 — The Old (Bad) Solutions: SSRIs and Numbing Creams 16:30 — Treating PE Step by Step & Weaning Off 19:30 — How Jeff Discovered Promescent (Origin Story) 22:30 — The Eutectic Formula That Changes Everything 25:00 — How to Use the Delay Spray: Application & Timing 27:30 — Dosing, Titration & Finding Your Sweet Spot 29:30 — Is It Safe? 3 Million Bottles, Zero Red Flags 31:00 — Promescent vs. Viagra & Doctors' Favorite Combo 33:30 — Does Age or Ethnicity Affect PE Rates? 35:15 — The PE-ED Connection & the Fragile Male Ego 37:00 — Jeff's Personal Story: Aging, Porn & Regret 38:30 — Where to Find Promescent, Discount CodeTo watch the video version of this episode, head over to YouTube!About the Guest:Jeff Abraham is the CEO of Promescent, a leading sexual wellness brand focused on making intimacy solutions more accessible and effective.

This summer, brutally hot temperatures, deepening water scarcity, and spiking fertilizer costs have put North Africa's agricultural sector under intense pressure. Host Alistair Taylor is joined by Mohammed Mahmoud, CEO and founder of the Climate and Water Initiative and lead for Middle East Climate and Water Policy at the United Nations University Institute for Water, Environment, and Health, to unpack the region's food and water security challenges. Drawing on Mahmoud's new report card on agricultural sustainability in North Africa, they explore the diverging picture across the region, why some countries have weathered the strain better than others, and what it will take to build a more resilient and secure food system.   Recorded on July 16, 2026. Read Mohammed's report card assessing the sustainability of agriculture across North Africa here.

At the age of 15, the filmmaker and actor Kyla Harris had an accident that forever changed what her body could do, and what it couldn't. From then on, she needed someone with her 24 hours a day to help her with things like going to the bathroom, cooking and showering.  Family members, friends, romantic partners and personal assistants have all played a role in Kyla's care over the years. She's had to learn to communicate, in exceptionally clear terms, how her body feels and what it needs, at any hour of the day or night.  Kyla is a creator and the star of the BBC TV show “We Might Regret This,” and her character, Freya, has the same disability that Kyla does. While the show depicts a fictional world, its complex web of remarkably close, interdependent relationships is, in part, inspired by Kyla's life. In this episode of “Modern Love,” Kyla tells Anna Martin what it's been like to approach every want and need as a group project. This dynamic becomes especially interesting when it comes to Kyla's thriving sex life, from dance-floor makeouts to long-term partnerships. Kyla discusses getting creative with her body — and the occasional prop —  and takes a deep dive into what intimacy can really mean.   How to submit a Modern Love EssayHow to submit a Tiny Love Story Subscribe today at nytimes.com/podcasts or on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Stassi Schroeder is a bestselling author, podcast host and reality television personality returning to TV with her new series, House of Stassi, where she opens the door to life after Vanderpump Rules as a wife, mother, and entrepreneur. The new series follows her as she steps back into the spotlight while navigating marriage, motherhood, friendships, and the next chapter of her career. In this episode, Stassi and I get into the conversations women actually have behind closed doors. We talk about the beauty habits she'll never give up, the luxury products she thinks are worth every penny, the trends she wishes would disappear and the surprising moment she finally started feeling truly confident. She also shares how motherhood changed the way she sees herself, what wellness looks like in this season of life, her thoughts on peptides and EMS workouts and how she keeps her marriage “relationshippy”. Plus, we revisit reality TV fame, failure, confidence without alcohol and why she says her story was never meant to end with Vanderpump Rules. Tune into Stassi's show on Freeform or Hulu.

In part two of my conversation with Stacey Roberts, PT, RN, MSN, we go even deeper into the world of shockwave therapy for pelvic pain and sexual health. Stacey and I talk about whether shockwave can help with genitourinary syndrome of menopause, how it compares to the MonaLisa Touch, and why some patients need ongoing treatments while others don't. We get into the most controversial pelvic floor topic there is — Kegels — and why prescribing more of them can actually make things worse for people who are too tight, not too weak. Stacey shares real patient stories, including a vaginismus case tied to a traumatic IUD removal, and we spend real time on the mind-body connection: how breathing, the nervous system, and central sensitization shape chronic pain, and how I worked through my own identity as someone "in pain" after years of back issues. We close with where to find Stacey's podcast, book, and how to track down a qualified softwave provider near you.In This Episode:00:00 Welcome Back + Part One Recap00:35 Podcast Intro: Meet Your Host Karen Bigman01:05 Shockwave for Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause02:45 Shockwave vs. the MonaLisa Touch: What's the Difference04:45 Do You Need Repeat Treatments?

First PASS-certified at-home STI kit, herpes testing included. 15% off: http://prodxhealth.com/discount/tabooIn this episode of Taboo To Truth, I tackle the question I hear from men over 50 more than any other: what do women actually want? Instead of another list of app hacks and texting rules, I go underneath the practical questions to the emotional ones that actually determine whether you build a real relationship or just rack up more first dates. I break down why men are re-entering dating with an outdated playbook, what women over 50 consistently tell me they're looking for, and I give eight concrete tips — from healing before you date to knowing the difference between chemistry and compatibility. I close with the reframe that matters most: dating after 50 isn't about finding the right person, it's about becoming the kind of partner who can build the relationship you actually want.In This Episode:0:00 ProDX Health (STI Testing)1:45 What Women Over 50 Actually Want2:19 The Real Questions Men Are Asking3:15 You're Not Picking Up Where You Left Off4:02 Why Neither Side Is Being Honest4:45 What Women Over 50 Really Say They Want4:58 Tip #1: Heal Before You Date5:32 Tip #2: Build a Life You Genuinely Enjoy6:18 Tip #3: Fix Your Finances First6:52 Tip #4: Get Curious, Ask Better Questions7:27 Tip #5: Be Authentic From Day One8:13 Tip #6: Put Real Effort Into Your Profile8:44 Tip #7: Stop Looking for "The One"9:12 Tip #8: Chemistry vs. Compatibility9:46 The Real Question You Should Be Asking10:30 Final Thoughts & Share This EpisodeWant a deeper look?

Freeride skiing is an exhilarating sport that pushes the boundaries of skiing and challenges the limits of athleticism. In this episode, we dive into an enlightening conversation with Jess Hotter, the 2022 Freeride World Tour champion. She unpacks the essence of freeride skiing and what it takes to excel in this dynamic sport, and how an injury can derail a lifetime of preparation and training. In February of 2026 Hotter crashed at the Freeride World Championships tearing her ACL, MCL and meniscus, as well as straining most other ligaments in her knee. Today she and Dave discuss the physical and mental challenges of repair and rehab and the long road in their return to sport. Understanding Freeride Skiing: What Sets It Apart?Freeride skiing is not just about speeding down groomed slopes; it encompasses the thrill of navigating untracked terrain and challenging conditions. Jess describes it as skiing with friends while aiming for the highest point on a mountain and making the descent as stylish as possible. The aim is to choose lines that showcase skill, creativity, and control, ultimately judged on criteria like air, style, speed, fluidity, and technique.The Journey from Casual Skier to Freeride CompetitorFor those wondering how to transition from casual skiing to freeride competition, Jess highlights the importance of progression. It's about taking small steps—starting from easy jumps to more significant cliffs and challenging terrains. By gradually pushing boundaries and learning from every experience, skiers can build the confidence and skills needed to tackle high-stakes competitions. Key Takeaways- Freeride skiing is about creativity and skill in navigating untracked terrain.- Competitions are judged on multiple criteria, emphasizing style and technique.- Preparation and visualization are crucial for a successful run.- Progression is essential for those looking to move into competitive freeride skiing.Freeride skiing represents the pinnacle of skiing excellence, combining creativity, skill, and a love for the outdoors. If you're inspired to explore this thrilling sport, start small, push your limits, and remember that every great skier was once a beginner.

In this episode of Taboo To Truth, I sit down with Stacey Roberts, PT, RN, MSN — a physical therapist and holistic nurse with over 30 years of experience in pelvic health, and one of the country's leading experts in shockwave therapy for pelvic pain and sexual dysfunction. Stacey breaks down why up to 30% of women may experience vulvodynia (and why that number is likely underreported), how chronic low back pain can actually be rooted in a tight, "upregulated" pelvic floor, and why men are even less likely than women to get evaluated for pelvic floor issues. We dig into the emotional and physical toll of being told "it's all in your head," the fascia's role in referred pain, and how shockwave — a completely external, non-invasive technology originally developed to break up kidney stones — is now accelerating healing for incontinence, painful intercourse, erectile dysfunction, and vaginismus. Stacey also shares an eyebrow-raising pilot finding on shockwave and testosterone. This is part one of a two-part conversation — part two is coming soon.In this episode: 00:00 Shockwave Therapy?!00:45 Welcome to Taboo to Truth01:15 Meet Stacey Roberts: 30+ Years in Pelvic & Sexual Health01:45 How Common Is Pelvic Pain & Sexual Dysfunction, Really?03:00 Low Back Pain: Foam Roller Fix or Something Deeper?06:00 Men vs. Women: Why Pelvic Pain Shows Up Differently09:00 Surgery, "It's All in Your Head," and the Repressed Emotion Connection12:30 Pelvic Floor & Sexual Dysfunction: Shoutout to Dr. Lance Frank14:15 The Pudendal Nerve: How Internal Treatment Improves External Sensation16:30 Non-Surgical Treatment Options: Pelvic Floor Therapy, Fascia & Botox19:00 From Kidney Stones to Muscles: The History of Shockwave Therapy20:30 What Shockwave Actually Feels Like (and the Vaginismus Case Study)22:15 Shockwave, Testosterone & Treating Testicular Health23:45 Wrap-Up: Part Two Is Coming — Subscribe & FollowWant a deeper look?
