This episode explores the scientific nuances of workout timing, specifically tailored to women's health and physiology. The conversation delves into how circadian rhythms, cortisol levels, and appetite hormones like ghrelin influence the body's response to exercise at different times of the day.  We discuss findings from various training studies, highlighting that while morning workouts are particularly effective for reducing abdominal fat and visceral adiposity in women, afternoon sessions may offer superior strength and powergains due to enhanced neuromuscular recruitment WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: Training in the morning, regardless of the exercise type (high-intensity or resistance), is notably effective for reducing abdominal fat Women tend to see greater strength gains and improved neuromuscular fibre recruitment when training in the afternoon or evening. The body's response to morning exercise is partly driven by a higher baseline of activated ghrelin While biology suggests optimal times for specific goals, consistency and sticking to a routine that fits one's lifestyle are ultimately the most important factors for long-term success. TIMESTAMPS 0:00 – Discussion on how morning workouts specifically target abdominal fat reduction in women. 0:25 – Explanation of why women generally experience greater strength and power in the afternoon. 0:44 – Overview of studies showing morning exercise reduces visceral fat in women, but not in men. 1:18 – Analysis of how the hunger hormone ghrelin triggers fat burning during early morning sessions. 1:43 – Insight into how resistance training signals the liver to use fatty acids for metabolism rather than storage. 2:38 – A concluding look at why personal consistency often outweighs biological "perfection" in a routine.

On today's show, host Dana Pellebon is joined by Dr. Jonathan Mathias Lassiter, author of the new book, How I Know White People are Crazy and Other Stories: Notes from a Frustrated Black Psychologist. Dr. Lassiter works in private psychotherapy practice and provides culturally relevant care for marginalized professionals. He is part of the mere 1% of Black male psychologists in the country. His memoir makes the case for better cultural representation in the therapy field and defines the theory of the “whiteness mindset.”  Dr. Lassiter says that he's always been curious about why people do the things they do, and this led him to pursue a career in education followed by a psychotherapy practice. He describes his upbringing and the isolation and microaggressions he experienced in his graduate studies and clinical settings. He noticed that though the clinics he worked in were serving Black and Latinx clients, the vast majority of the therapists were white. And while working in the VA hospital in Indianapolis, he was the only Black male therapist. At that time, he read Toni Morrison's Playing in the Dark: Whiteness in the Literary Imagination and went on to write a corollary essay, “Whiteness in the Psychological Imagination,” that became the seed of his current book.  In How I Know White People are Crazy and Other Stories, Dr. Lassiter uses diagnostic criteria to define “the whiteness mindset” as a way of thinking and being that values materialism, competition, and individualism, which all promote oppression. It's a “distress producing phenomena” that hurts everyone and is making white people sick, he says. They also discuss other concepts in psychology, like “post traumatic slave syndrome” and “black fatigue,” and how Christianity becomes a weapon, especially when it comes to sexuality. Dr. Lassiter says he wants marginalized people, the global majority, to understand that they're not the problem. His future work will focus on the Afro-centric and Indigenous psychologies as pathways to better, more healthy futures. Dr. Jonathan Mathias Lassiter is a licensed clinical psychologist in New York City specializing in culturally informed mental health care for Black, POC, and LGBTQ+ individuals and couples. With a passion to use his Ph.D.for the culture, he serves as a therapist, scientist, educator, author, mental health columnist, on-air mental health expert, and international public speaker. Dr. Lassiter has appeared in such outlets as NBC, PBS, Forbes, Huff Post, Radio NewZealand, SiriusXM, iHeart Radio, and more. Follow Dr. Lassiter on all social media platforms at @lassiterhealth.

Most women think brain fog in perimenopause is inevitable. It isn't. In this episode, I explain what's really going on: your brain isn't broken, it's running on empty; and that's a solvable biology problem, not a willpower problem. I break down what happens as estrogen and progesterone fluctuate, how that impacts brain energy, and why symptoms like forgetfulness, poor focus, and “slow-motion thinking” can show up even when you're doing everything right. Then I share four science-backed strategies to rebuild a sharper, more resilient brain—covering nutrition, training for cognitive performance, regulating your mental “gears,” and a practical supplement toolkit to amplify the foundations WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: How blood sugar crashes sabotage cognition (and the breakfast fix) Why protein & healthy fats matter for focus in perimenopause The role of omega-3s (EPA/DHA) in neuroinflammation and clarity Why higher-intensity exercise can improve focus via lactate → BDNF How to use training strategically before deep work or high-stakes meetings The 3 Gears framework for focus, creativity, and stress regulation Why micro-breaks between meetings improve engagement and reduce stress buildup The supplement stack discussed (omega-3s, magnesium forms, ubiquinol/CoQ10, B vitamins) How to start with one change and build momentum without overwhelm TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Brain Fog in Perimenopause: What's Really Going On 02:37 Strategy 1: High-Quality Nutrition 05:25 Strategy 2: Exercise for Focus (Lactate, BDNF & Brain Energy) 08:59 Strategy 3: 3 Gears Framework for Focus & Stress 13:05 Strategy 4: The Supplement Toolkit (What Actually Helps) 17:28 How to Reclaim Your Focus & Energy VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend • Longevity Supplement Masterclass – https://academy.angelafosterperformance.com/longevity-masterclass-27 • Omega-3 Episode featuring Dr. Bill Harris – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J42kJPyHPoA A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible Get 10% off MitoQ NAD+ - www.mitoq.com with code ANGELA Get 35% off Timeline Mitopure by visiting this link while the offer lasts - https://www.timeline.com/promotions/angela35 ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.

Have you ever noticed how slowing down can feel strangely uncomfortable—even when you know you need it? Or how taking a break can stir guilt instead of relief? In this episode, I'm joined by Israa Nasir, a psychotherapist, mental health educator, and founder of WellGuide, to explore the deeper psychology behind our relentless drive to stay busy. Drawing from her new book Toxic Productivity, Israa helps us unpack the hidden beliefs that link our worth to our output—and how to step out of that pressure without losing our sense of ambition. Israa's work bridges emotional well-being, modern life, and resilience-building, and she has been featured in NBC, Vox, HuffPost, Teen Vogue, and more. She has also been invited to speak at organizations including Mental Health America, Google, Meta, and Yale. Together, we talk about where toxic productivity comes from, how it quietly shapes our self-esteem, and what it looks like to redefine success in a way that supports your mental health. You'll also walk away with practical ways to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and build a relationship with productivity that feels grounded—not draining.

Join Angela and Simon Alexander Ong, a life and business coach and author of the book Energize, for a discussion on how to transform your life by managing your energy rather than your time, focussing on the power of perception and mindset in achieving an "extraordinary life".  Simon shares his personal journey from the financial sector during the 2008 crisis to becoming a coach, illustrating how obstacles can be reframed as opportunities. They also look at practical strategies for goal setting, maintaining consistency over intensity, and building sustainable systems for long-term success in both personal and professional spheres. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Energy Management Over Time Management: True productivity and the ability to "bend reality" come from managing your energetic state and perception rather than just managing your calendar. Consistency Trumps Intensity: Success is rarely a straight line; it is more like a maze where long-term consistency in habits and systems is more effective than short-term bursts of intense effort. The Power of Pronoia: Reframing your perspective from paranoia (the world is out to get you) to "pronoia" (the universe is conspiring in your favour) significantly changes how you respond to challenges and opportunities. Value and Service as Business Foundations: In business, shift the focus from selling to providing value and service; Simon suggests that money is simply an "echo of value". TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [0:56] The career journey [2:50] “The messy middle" of any journey and why it's crucial to fall in love with the process [7:46] The difference between goal-setting (like training for a marathon) and building systems [13:48] “Daily non-negotiables," including physical exercise, reading across multiple formats, journaling for mental clarity, and using voice notes VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible Try Beam Minerals now at beamminerals.com/angela using code ANGELA for 20% off Take the BioSyncing Quiz: https://angelafoster.me/quiz ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.

Join Angela and Dr William Li for a look at the complex world of heart health and hormonal shifts, in which they tackle the often-confusing link between menopause and rising cholesterol levels, debunking common myths and providing clarity on the real risks of high LDL.  Dr. Li shares his expert insights on the nuances of heart disease prevention, the importance of blood sugar balance, and how a holistic, evidence-based approach can help you navigate these sudden health changes with confidence and balance. KEY TAKEAWAYS: High LDL cholesterol is linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease because it can build up as plaque in the arteries and impede blood flow. Total cholesterol levels are no longer the primary indicator of heart disease risk; instead, doctors focus on the ratio of "good" HDL to "bad" LDL cholesterol. While some people have genetic predispositions to extremely high cholesterol, modern medicine emphasises a more nuanced understanding of different cholesterol components. Maintaining blood sugar balance is crucial, but health influencers often exaggerate the dangers of minor "spikes" and "crashes" that are actually normal bodily functions. TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: 0:45 How LDL cholesterol sticks to artery walls like "Velcro," 1:42 How medical understanding has evolved from tracking total cholesterol to focusing on HDL/LDL ratios. 3:07 The influence of health influencers on public anxiety regarding blood sugar and cholesterol levels. 4:03 Importance of "homeostasis" and how the body naturally strives for balance in its systems.

Angela is joined by Dr Will B to examine the critical relationship between meal timing, gut health, and inflammation.  They discuss how eating close to bedtime can negatively impact heart rate variability and create an inflammatory state in the body, particularly affecting the gut microbiome. They also look at the importance of allowing the gut to enter a recovery mode during the night and emphasise the benefits of earlier meal times KEY TAKEAWAYS: Meal Timing and Inflammation: Eating close to bedtime can lead to increased inflammation, as the body's inflammatory response peaks about six hours after a meal Importance of Fasting: Allowing the gut a fasting period of about 12 hours overnight can help recalibrate the gut microbiome, promoting a healthier gut environment and supporting overall health. Four Nutritional Pillars: To support a healthy microbiome and reduce inflammation, focus on four key nutrients: fibre, polyphenols, healthy fats, and fermented foods Dietary Patterns: While various dietary patterns (like vegan, carnivore, or keto) are often debated, the focus should be on ensuring adequate intake of the four nutritional pillars rather than adhering strictly to a specific diet TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [00:02:21] Nighttime gut microbiome recovery.

Angela is joined by Sarah Rusbatch, to discuss the hidden health risks of alcohol, particularly for women in midlife. Sarah reveals the physiological reasons why women metabolise alcohol differently than men, leading to increased health risks, and shares the alarming statistic that four out of five women are unaware of the link between alcohol and breast cancer.  Together they focus on the three core pillars for successful behaviour change: focusing on what you gain, replacing the habit with a positive alternative, and embracing the power of small experiments KEY TAKEAWAYS: The Hidden Risks for Women: Women metabolise alcohol less efficiently than men due to lower levels of the alcohol dehydrogenase enzyme, making them more susceptible to alcohol's negative effects Alcohol's Link to Cancer: One in five breast cancer deaths are linked to alcohol, and the risk increases dose-dependently. Four out of five women are unaware of this direct connection. The Power of Positive Substitution: Successful behaviour change requires moving the focus from the deprivation (loss aversion) to the gains (e.g., better sleep, more energy, better skin) and replacing the drinking habit with an effective, positive alternative. Addressing the Root Cause: For many, alcohol is a "solution to the problem" of boredom, stress, or escape. Lasting change requires looking at what alcohol is masking and making fundamental changes to your life TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: 0:01:25: One glass of alcohol can be too much for those with genetic predispositions 0:03:08: Why women metabolise alcohol differently 0:04:45: Four in five women are unaware of the link between alcohol and breast cancer. 0:06:50: The alcohol industry's successful marketing strategy that led to the rise of female-targeted pink drinks 0:11:35: The three core pillars for behaviour change VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible Get weekly science tips to optimise your health and longevity to your inbox with Angela's free newsletter.

This week we're revisiting our conversation with Marlee Liss from January 18, 2024! Claire de Mézerville López welcomes Marlee Liss to the Restorative Works! Podcast. Marlee speaks with us about her experiences as a survivor of sexual assault. Her case made history as the first in North America to conclude with restorative justice processes through the courts. She describes her experience in the traditional court system as one where her voice, needs, and ability to make decisions in her best interest were dismissed. Concerning the use of restorative justice processes, Marlee emphasizes how imperative it is to engage with fully prepared, skillful, humane, trauma-informed, and attentive individuals who are striving to meet the needs of survivors. She provides examples of centering and identifying survivor's needs and making space to hear directly from them. Marlee Liss is a somatic educator, award-winning speaker, author, restorative justice advocate and lesbian Jewish feminist. She has supported thousands of women and non-binary folk in healing shame, transforming trauma, and bridging healing with justice. Marlee's work has been featured in Forbes, Huff Post, Buzzfeed, the Mel Robbins Show, and more. As an award-winning speaker, she's delivered talks for: The US Military SAPRO, Vanderbilt University, Fordham University, Trauma & Recovery Conference, Women's Mental Health Conference at Yale, National Sexual Assault Conference, and more. Marlee was 1 of 25 survivors on an elite panel for the National Action Plan to End Gender Based Violence informing federal policy, and her story was made into a documentary directed by Kelsey Darragh, The Limits of Forgiveness, which premiered on December 17, 2025!

Angela talks to Dr. Ash Kapoor, a longevity specialist and cellular health expert, who shares his approach to health that focuses on understanding and addressing the root causes of disease and aging, particularly through the lens of the 12 Hallmarks of Aging.  Dr. Kapoor talks about the fact that true longevity is not just about extending lifespan, but about maximising independence, purposefulness, and fulfilment, explaining that modern stress depletes the body's primary energy source (ATP), forcing it to steal from the immune, hormonal, and nervous systems KEY TAKEAWAYS: Longevity Redefined: True longevity is defined not merely by living longer, but by being independent, purposeful, and pursuing fulfilment until an achievable age of 123. The Root Cause of Decline: All 126,000 known diseases can be traced back to the 12 Hallmarks of Aging, a breakdown in the body's cellular systems that is often driven by chronic modern stress A Strategy for Optimisation: Dr. Kapoor's approach involves a multi-stage strategy of detoxifying (cleaning the liver and gut), repairing (restoring hormones and nutrients, and re-establishing circadian rhythm), and renewing the body's cellular environment The Power of Inner Energy: The core problem is operating on stress-based energy (like cortisol and immune/hormonal reserves) instead of the primary mitochondrial energy (ATP) TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: 0:01:25: Defining Longevity: What true "living" means beyond just existing. 0:03:00: The Science of the 12 Hallmarks of Aging and the control we have over them. 0:08:48: The link between the external world (success) and internal depletion (energy crash). 0:18:25: The fundamental strategy: Detox, Repair, and Renew in the correct order. 0:25:05: Understanding hormone depletion: Why the body "steals" hormones and the concept of "restorative hormone therapy."

In this episode, we delve into the latest advancements in UAP research and explore a groundbreaking discovery that suggests our universe might not be as symmetrical as once thought. We begin with the ongoing investigation into unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs), where experts emphasize the need for rigorous scientific study and funding to uncover the truth behind these mysterious sightings. As momentum builds, institutions like the University of Wurtzburg and the Galileo Project are stepping up to collect high-quality data on UAPs, with potential national security implications highlighted by former Navy pilot Ryan Graves.Next, we shift our focus to a fascinating cosmological anomaly that challenges the long-held cosmological principle of isotropy. A new study reveals that the cosmic microwave background exhibits temperature variations that suggest our galaxy is moving through space in a preferred direction, raising questions about dark energy and the Big Bang itself.On Mars, NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter has identified the largest fresh impact crater ever confirmed, providing valuable insights into the planet's active geological processes. This remarkable discovery showcases the ongoing dynamism of our solar system.We then explore a rare cosmic phenomenon involving a triple system of galaxies, each hosting supermassive black holes that are actively feeding. This unprecedented finding enhances our understanding of galaxy evolution and the interactions that drive black hole growth.Finally, we discuss innovative strategies to protect future astronauts from the dangers of cosmic rays during long-duration missions.

In this thought-provoking podcast episode, Angela and special guest, Peter Crone, delve into the challenges women face in reconciling their achievements with feelings of inadequacy.  They explore the concept of the "hungry ghost," where external success fails to address deeper internal beliefs of not being enough. The discussion emphasises the importance of shifting from a mindset of searching for validation to one of exploring possibilities, highlighting that true peace and joy come from within, rather than from external circumstances KEY TAKEAWAYS: Inner Perspective vs. External Success: Achieving external success does not necessarily change one's internal beliefs about self-worth.  The Concept of the "Hungry Ghost": This term illustrates the idea that individuals can never feel satisfied with external achievements if they have unresolved internal beliefs of inadequacy.  Exploration vs. Searching: There is a distinction between searching, which stems from feelings of lack, and exploring, which is rooted in joy and curiosity.  Freedom and Joy as States of Being: Freedom and joy are not dependent on external circumstances but are states of mind.  TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [00:02:01] Inner peace vs. external success.

“Paraben-free,” “non-comedogenic,” “medical-grade skincare,” "collagen-boosting," "benzene-free," “fragrance-free,” and “dermatologist-tested” are among the most commonly used terms in cosmetic and skincare marketing worldwide. These familiar labels are often treated as shortcuts for trust, quality, and clinical legitimacy—yet without consistent regulation, their meanings can be surprisingly fluid. Do they carry meaningful weight from a scientific and dermatologic standpoint, or are they simply marketing buzzwords that blur the line between evidence and persuasion?In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Michelle Wong, PhD. Dr. Wong is a Chemistry PhD, beauty and cosmetic science communicator, and author based in Sydney, Australia.

On today's wide-ranging program, Ralph welcomes David Dayen of “The American Prospect” to discuss the Democrats caving on the shutdown. Then, Ralph speaks to Dani Noble from Jewish Voice for Peace about their BDS campaigns, efforts to block weapons shipments to Israel, and the state of the ceasefire in Gaza. Finally, Ralph speaks to original Nader's Raider Sam Simon about his new memoir, “Dementia Man: An Existential Journey.”David Dayen is the executive editor of the American Prospect, an independent political magazine that aims to advance liberal and progressive goals through reporting, analysis and debate. His work has appeared in the Intercept, HuffPost, the Washington Post, and more. He is the author of Chain of Title: How Three Ordinary Americans Uncovered Wall Street's Great Foreclosure Fraud and Monopolized: Life in the Age of Corporate Power.If Congress is saying: We have the power of the purse, and we have the ability to dictate to the President what he is able to do or not do with federal funding, then why not go the whole way? To me, that was the entire purpose of the shutdown— to stop the President from ignoring Congress and initiating his own prerogatives as it relates to government funding. It is really making Congress completely irrelevant in the process which they constitutionally are supposed to dictate.David DayenEvery time Trump has been in power and there's been a national election, he's lost it. He lost the midterm elections in 2018. He lost the presidential election in 2020. He lost the off-year elections in 2017 and 2019. He lost (just last week) the elections in 2025. He is not equipped to have an agenda that appeals to the American people when he's in power. And so I firmly agree that Democrats are likely to do well in the elections next year, as they just did. The one thing that can stop that is: completely punching your base in the face, after you succeed politically in backing Republicans into a corner.David DayenDani Noble is a Strategic Campaigns Organizer at Jewish Voice for Peace.Israel bonds (which very few people know much about) are direct loans to the Israeli military and government. They are unrestricted. They have no guardrails around what those funds can be used for, et cetera. And this is a main way that the Israeli military and government generate an unrestricted slush fund to be able to continue their genocidal assault on Gaza, to continue funding for the atrocities being committed against Palestinians—even as their government and economy suffers and/or operates with a massive deficit.Dani NobleThis bill would essentially block the Trump administration from delivering some of the deadliest weapons to Israel. So it's an essential, essential step in what we need to do fundamentally—which is a full arms embargo to stop arming the Israeli military and government…It's the most supported piece of legislation in support of Palestinian rights that we've ever seen.Dani NobleSam Simon is an author, playwright, and attorney. His new book Dementia Man: An Existential Journey is based on his award-winning play of the same name.There's also a social cost. A sense that everything I've ever built personally—my cars, my homes, my savings—that were all going to be available as a legacy to my family, they have to be spent in my few years of my life just to keep me alive. There needs to be a community response to that—and that's shorthand for the government. It doesn't force people to go broke to stay alive.Sam SimonNews 11/14/25* This week, Democrats on the House Oversight Committee released a new tranche of over 20,000 pages of documents related to infamous financier and sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein. These documents include damning emails between Epstein and various high-power individuals like Steve Bannon, former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers and current U.S. Ambassador to Turkey Tom Barrack. However, the emails that have received the most attention are those regarding President Donald Trump. In these emails, Epstein claimed Trump “knew about the girls,” and claimed that, “i [i.e. Epstein] am the one able to take him [i.e. Trump] down.” Perhaps most shocking, Epstein claims to have been with Trump during Thanksgiving in 2017, according to NBC. If true, it would directly contradict Trump's repeated insistence that he had no contact with Epstein since their falling out in the mid 2000s, either 2004 or 2007, per PBS.* The newly released Epstein files reinforce another narrative as well: that Epstein was an asset for Israeli intelligence. Drop Site news has done excellent reporting on Epstein helping to “Broker [an] Israeli Security Agreement With Mongolia,” “Build a Backchannel to Russia Amid [the] Syrian Civil War” and “Sell a Surveillance State to Côte d'Ivoire.” Most recently the independent outlet has published an expose on Epstein's relationship with known Mossad spy Yoni Koren. According to this piece, “Epstein's personal calendars reveal that…[Koren] lived at Epstein's Manhattan apartment for multiple stretches between 2013 and 2016.” There is also evidence that Epstein wired money to Koren. However, the reasons behind this transfer, and the details of their relationship, remain murky.* More Epstein information is likely to be released in the coming days. This week, the longest ever government shutdown in American history concluded with capitulation by centrist Democrats in the Senate. However, the conclusion of the shutdown finally broke the logjam over the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva, the newly elected Democratic Congresswoman from Arizona. Grijalva immediately fulfilled her vow to be the 218th signature on the Discharge Petition forcing a vote on the release of the Epstein files, joining all 213 other House Democrats and four Republicans, Reps. Thomas Massie, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert and Nancy Mace, per the Hill. In her first speech, Grijalva emphatically stated, “Justice cannot wait another day.” House Speaker Johnson has promised to bring the matter to a vote next week and many Republicans who did not sign the petition are expected to vote for it, with sponsors angling for a veto-proof majority. At that point, all eyes will turn to the Senate.* Even still, the Democrats blinking in the government shutdown showdown has infuriated many members of Congress, candidates and Democratic-aligned organizations, who are now calling for Chuck Schumer to step aside as Senate Minority Leader. Journalist Prem Thakker is keeping a running tally of these calls, which so far includes 12 Congressional Democrats – with major names like Pramila Jayapal, Mark Pocan, Rashida Tlaib, and Ro Khanna among them – along with candidates like Seth Moulton, Mallory McMorrow, Saikat Chakrabarti and Graham Platner. Beyond these individuals however, this call has been echoed by groups ranging from Our Revolution to Social Security Works to College Democrats of America, among many others.* Moving to economic matters, one other consequence of the protracted government shutdown is that the Bureau of Labor Statistics was “largely idle,” meaning it did not collect the crucial fiscal information it is responsible for gathering, including October jobs numbers and Consumer Price Index changes. According to POLITICO, White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said this information is unlikely to ever be released. She of course blamed that on the opposition in Congress, saying “Democrats may have permanently damaged the federal statistical system.” This is somewhat laughable, as the Trump administration has all but gone to war with the economic data collection functions of the federal government whenever that data has made him look bad.* Another bad sign for the economy in general, and for consumers in particular, is the rise of what are generously called “Flex Loans.” A new investigation by ProPublica in partnership with the Tennessee Lookout, examines the rise of this new strain of ultra-high-interest loan, with annual interest rates as high as 279.5%. This, combined with a lending cap of $4,000 – nine times higher than a traditional payday loan – has led to Advance Financial, the leading lender in Tennessee, suing over 110,000 people across the state since 2015. According to the data, judgments against consumers usually end up in the thousands, and 40% result in garnished wages. Loans of this variety were illegal before 2015, but the Tennessee legislature allowed them through and while the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has sought to protect financial services consumers from these types of predatory lending schemes, the Trump administration's attempts to kneecap the agency have rendered it powerless.* Meanwhile, a dearth of consumer protections is yielding horrific consequences in a completely different area: AI. A new CNN report details how ChatGPT encouraged a Texas 23-year-old, Zane Shamblin, to kill himself. In heart-wrenching detail, this story paints a picture of Shamblin on the edge of suicide, and the AI chatbot helping to push him towards death. As Shamblin held a gun to his own head, the bot wrote, “You're not rushing. You're just ready,” later adding, “Rest easy, king…You did good.” According to this piece, the chatbot “repeatedly encouraged [Shamblin] as he discussed ending his life” for months, and “right up to his last moments.” Shamblin's parents are now suing ChatGPT's parent company, OpenAI, alleging the company endangered their son's life by, “tweaking its design last year to be more humanlike and by failing to put enough safeguards on interactions with users in need of emergency help.” The victim's mother, Alicia Shamblin, is quoted saying, “I feel like it's just going to destroy so many lives. It's going to be a family annihilator. It tells you everything you want to hear.”* In more positive consumer protection news, former Biden FTC Chair Lina Khan has hit the ground running in her new role helping to manage the transition for New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani. Per Semafor, Khan has been “scouring city and state laws — some overlooked by past mayors and some too new to have been tested yet — for legal footing for Mamdani's priorities.” Apparently, “Khan has privately discussed targeting hospitals that bill patients for painkillers available more cheaply at corner drugstores and sports stadiums charging nosebleed prices for concessions,” and “Other avenues for enforcement include a new state law that requires companies to tell customers when they are using algorithmic pricing. The law took effect this week, forcing Uber and DoorDash to start disclosing, but the incoming Mamdani administration plans to police laggards.” In short, it seems like the incoming Mamdani administration will use any and all legal and administrative means at their disposal to bring down costs for New Yorkers – as he promised again and again during the campaign. And, if there is one consumer regulator who can accomplish this, it is Ms. Khan.* Turning to Hollywood, Variety has published a major new piece on newly-minted Paramount CEO David Ellison's first 100 days. This piece covers everything from his attempts to curry favor with President Trump to the battle to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery. Buried within this story is an indication that “Paramount maintains a list of talent it will not work with because they are deemed to be ‘overtly antisemitic.'” The criteria for this modern blacklist however is opaque, especially troubling given that Ellison has deputized Bari Weiss – an ardent Zionist and censor of pro-Palestine speech – as the “Editor-in-chief” of CBS News. According to Drop Site, the studio “recently condemned a filmmakers' boycott of Israeli institutions signed by Emma Stone, Mark Ruffalo, Tilda Swinton, Javier Bardem, and Olivia Colman, among more than 4,000 others, declaring that Israel is carrying out genocide and apartheid.” Would Ellison blacklist these stars for “overt antisemitism”?* Finally, for some good news, the Economist is out with a stunning article on the success of China's transition to renewable energy. In the much-quoted opening paragraph, this piece reads “The SCALE of the renewables revolution in China is almost too vast for the human mind to grasp. By the end of last year, the country had installed 887 gigawatts of solar-power capacity—close to double Europe's and America's combined total. The 22m tonnes of steel used to build new wind turbines and solar panels in 2024 would have been enough to build a Golden Gate Bridge on every working day of every week that year. China generated 1,826 terawatt-hours of wind and solar electricity in 2024, five times more than the energy contained in all 600 of its nuclear weapons.” If that doesn't demonstrate the horizon of what is possible, given the requisite political will and determination, I don't know what will.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.
