As kids, you are constantly growing. You may not be able to feel yourself growing day to day, but if you've ever had achy legs at the end of a long day and been told, “Those are just growing pains,” it certainly SEEMS like you can feel yourself growing! In this episode we get answers to all kinds of questions about growing. Dr. Zurisadai Gonzalez Castillo, a pediatric neurologist at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, helps us understand: how tall can people grow? How do bones grow? Why do our nails and hair keep growing–and is it true our noses and ears never stop growing either?Download our learning guides: PDF | Google Slide | Transcript

This week Donny Deutsch and Lou Pellegrino run through who's up and who's down in American culture. They start with a CDC report finding that most U.S. adults are running on empty, then compare notes on five o'clock naps and why sleep has become a $100 billion industry. From there it's senior TikTok creators talking openly about sex and intimacy, the University of Chicago banning AI and laptops from its core courses, and the dictionary's newest additions, including "parasocial," "cuffing season," and "Sunday scaries." A new Gallup finding that adults under 35 are now the loneliest Americans leads into one of the week's most surprising brand ups: the comeback of the American mall. Donny and Lou trade Queens Center and Roosevelt Field memories along the way. They also check in on Taco Bell's new branded hotel in Palm Springs, question some of Ad Age's picks for 2026's hottest brands, and look at pickleball's fourth straight year as America's fastest-growing sport. Rounding out the list are the fitness shift from weight loss to strength and longevity, "DivorceTok" as a content category, social saunas as Gen Z's new third place, and the milestone of fewer than half of married women taking their husband's name.

Erick wrestles with the Cornell Seven fraternity case, arguing that society cannot prosecute bad or immoral behavior, only crimes, and walks through New York consent law, the Duke lacrosse case, the University of Virginia fraternity hoax, and the Lindsay Clancy insanity verdict. He also reports that national Republicans are pulling money from Michael Whatley in […]

Where do shells come from? CrowdScience listener Tamsyn got in touch, a little embarrassed, confessing that she had managed to reach her twenties without realising that shells are made by living creatures. Suddenly, her curiosity ran wild and she asked CrowdScience to investigate how these sea creatures have the architectural prowess to make shells in delicate ornamental shapes with beautiful colours and patterns. The job of sea-creature-investigator-in-chief falls to presenter Marnie Chesterton. She heads to the Natural History Museum in London, UK, where they have more shells than they can keep count of. Researcher Dr Suzanne Williams pulls out drawer after drawer of amazingly varied molluscs for Marnie to marvel at. Then, it's off to the beach to go shell hunting with Dr Leanne Melbourne, Senior Curator of Climate Change and the Dynamic Coast for Norfolk Museums in the UK. They look at the structure of shells, and Leanne explains how a soft mollusc is able to make a hard shell so sturdy they can survive for millions of years. Marnie then gets into some mollusc maths. With shells strewn across a table, Professors Alain Goriely and Derek Moulton at the University of Oxford, UK show Marnie how they have mapped their shapes. Can Marnie uncover the formula that underpins the formation of shells, from the most basic to the inexplicably ornate?

With the endless stream of advice, there are 3 keys for menopause fat loss you need to know. The answer isn't another diet, harder workouts, or doing even more.

Bryan Kohberger's defense attorney Anne Taylor told Judge Hippler in a sealed filing that her client couldn't rationally understand the Idaho murder case against him. She described Kohberger as struggling to comprehend adverse rulings and unable to make consequential decisions about his own defense. The judge denied her request for more time on June 26, 2025.Six days later, Kohberger pleaded guilty to all four counts of first-degree murder — the November 2022 killings of University of Idaho students Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. At the plea hearing, Hippler asked Taylor whether she'd had enough time to discuss the case with her client, and she said yes.That sealed filing is now public. Kohberger has filed a post-conviction petition arguing the plea should be thrown out. He claims his attorneys hid critical evidence, including hair evidence he says would have pointed to an unidentified attacker.His own defense expert, Ruth Ballard, analyzed that hair and concluded it physically matched Ethan Chapin's own hair. Her report was completed a month before the plea deal was signed.Taylor's defense team never determined Kohberger was incompetent. They explicitly denied reaching that conclusion and said they needed more time. Forensic criminologist Brent Turvey, a former member of the defense team, has said Taylor and her co-counsel will have to answer “very difficult questions.”The court hears arguments October 15 on whether Hippler should step aside. An amended petition follows in November. The evidentiary hearing, if it proceeds in June 2027, puts Anne Taylor on the stand.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Set inside Britain's housing crisis, six stand-alone but interconnected dramas follow ambition, resilience and the search for belonging.Tanika Gupta's drama tells the story of the tenants in the crumbling Riverbourne tower block in west London, where damp walls, broken lifts, mould, unsafe wiring and heating failures have been ignored for years while rents continue to climb. The Housing Association claims its mission is to provide homes for “vulnerable tenants” - those unable to sustain a tenancy without support due to age, disability, health conditions, or exceptional circumstances - But in reality the Association neglects repairs and intimidates the very people it's meant to protect.There is fear and anger for the tenants but as they get to know one another their solidarity and defiance grows: housing is a human right, not a commodity. All of them have personal histories but these difficulties they have all faced individually give them strength to stand together and the number of voices calling for change is a powerful force. Is victory within their grasp.Shazia ….. Avita Jay Aisha ….. Yasemin Ozdemir Amara ….. Alaa Taha Eustace ….. David Webber Dylan ….. Max Hastings David ….. Ian Dunnett Jnr Arthur …..

"In terms of the research, I can get lost in detective mode. Sometimes it's good if I know, okay, I only have an hour. I'm going to see what what can I learn about this one person in an hour. Then take it in those little pieces, and when I have time, I can get some writing done," says Elizabeth Chamblee Burch, author of The Pain Brokers.Today we have Elizabeth Chamblee Burch, a professor at the University of Georgia School of Law and the debut author of The Pain Brokers: How Con Men, Call Centers, and Rogue Doctors Fuel America's Lawsuit Factory. It's published by Atria/One Signal Publishers.It's a story of greed, fear, and exploitation of a scam that targeted women who had potentially faulty pelvic mesh surgery, only to have a shady network of cons terrify these women, over the phone, with vast amounts of personal information, scaring them to have this mesh removed that effectively has ruined the lives of countless women. The Pain Brokers chronicles their plight, as well as the lawyers who sought justice and the predatory people at the spearhead of this scheme.So Elizabeth's focus of her teaching is in mass torts, class actions, and civil procedure. She's been a visiting professor at Harvard Law School and won the American Law Institute's Early Career Scholars Meal in 2015, among a few other saucy awards. Her academic work and commentary have appeared in The New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, USA Today and the Miami Herald, just to name a few.

This week's news of an AI agent managing to hack into an Australian government website has the Unexpected Elements team exploring the sneaky science of infiltration.Marnie Chesterton is joined by science journalists Paul Adepoju and Andrada Fiscutean to discover how South African drongo birds have developed an ingenious technique to protect their nest from cuckoo eggs, and to hear about the unusual approach being developed to help get eyedrops past the body's immune system so they can reach the retina.We're also joined by Dr Bart Geert, Professor of Atmospheric Science at the University of Wyoming in the US, to explore the science of how to manipulate clouds to try to help produce more rain in drought-ridden areas.We also find out about how the tracking data that comes from tagging wild dogs in Zambia could help to ensure better approaches to their conservation in the future. We hear about your cases of pareidolia, and learn why aging leads to men going bald but also growing longer hair on other parts of the body. All that and more in this week's Unexpected Elements.

What happens to the university when students no longer need to do the work of thinking? For years, higher education has drifted away from its formative purpose toward mass-credentialing, efficiency, and scale. Artificial intelligence has already begun to accelerate that transformation—automating writing, feedback, tutoring, and more of the intellectual work students once had to (and ought to) undertake themselves. In the latest episode of the Magnus Podcast, Joshua Mazrin speaks with Dr. Lily Abadal, professor of philosophy at the University of South Florida, about AI, the modern university, and what education is actually for. They discuss why the rise of AI makes the humanities more necessary than ever; how universities can recover education as a genuinely transformative experience; and what we lose when students outsource the difficult work through which judgment, attention, intellectual independence, and a unique voice are formed. The conversation ultimately reaches beyond the university. As we increasingly outsource thinking, writing, attention, care, basic human tasks, and even elements of evangelization to technology, we have to ask whether greater efficiency is actually making us better—or merely relieving us of the activities through which we exercise our humanity.

Just days before his arrest for the University of Idaho murders, Bryan Kohberger wrote Washington State University asking to be reinstated as a teaching assistant after the school terminated him from the position. Kohberger had been notified on December 19, 2022 that he was losing his T.A. job in the Department of Criminal Justice and Criminology following complaints about his performance and conflicts with faculty. Two days later, he appealed directly to the dean of graduate studies, arguing that the termination process had been unfair and that university officials had failed to properly investigate his side of an alleged altercation. He also made clear that losing the assistantship threatened his ability to remain in the Ph.D. program because the position provided his income, health insurance and financial support.Kohberger's letter showed that, at least on paper, he was still planning to return to Pullman and continue his studies after the winter break. He wrote that losing the job would “virtually upend” his life and said he had grown attached to his classmates, professors and the WSU community. He never received a decision on the appeal before events overtook it: nine days after sending the letter, Kohberger was arrested in Pennsylvania and charged with murdering Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin. That same day, WSU imposed an emergency suspension based on the murder and burglary charges, effectively ending any possibility that he would return to the university.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bryan Kohberger Wrote Letter Begging For Job to Be Reinstated After Idaho Murders

Everyone says the polls blew it. Carl Allen says they didn't, and his research shows candidates averaging 49% or higher in well-polled races have won 98% of the time since 2004. Then we go race by race: Texas, Ohio, Maine, and two red states that could shock everyone on election night.Recorded live on Substack, this conversation with data analyst Carl Allen starts with why polls aren't predictions and ends with a tour of the 2026 Senate map, with real poll averages and prediction market odds pulled up as we talked. Along the way, Carl explains why a one-point lead can be safer than a three-point lead, and why undecided voters in Minnesota aren't the same as undecided voters in Ohio.Calls to Action✅ Leave a rating and review: lovethepodcast.com/politicsandreligion✅ Subscribe on Substack: coreysnathan.substack.com✅ Watch and subscribe on YouTube: youtube.com/@politicsandreligion✅ Share this episode with the friend who refreshes the polls every morningKey takeawaysPolls estimate a candidate's current support, not the final margin. When late deciders break heavily one way, as they did for David Crowley in Wisconsin's governor primary, that isn't a poll error.Watch the 50% line, not the spread. A candidate near 50% has little room to be overtaken, no matter how many voters are undecided.Undecided voters aren't a monolith. That's why prediction markets give a small Democratic lead in Minnesota 90% odds while a similar lead in Texas gets about 60%.Carl's sleeper races are Kansas and Nebraska.

A FlyDubai jet full of Israelis was supposed to land in Tel Aviv. The co-pilot stabbed the captain instead. The plane plunged thousands of feet. Passengers had to break into the cockpit to stop it. Wednesday morning, FlyDubai flight FZ1073 left Dubai for Tel Aviv with about 174 people on board, most of them Israelis. At cruise altitude, near 34,000 feet, the co-pilot stabbed Captain Smit Machchhar. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the attacker apparently tried to crash the plane with the passengers on board. The Boeing 737 dropped thousands of feet — some flight data put the fall around 17,000 to 18,000 feet — sent a 7700 emergency squawk, and turned for Tabuk, Saudi Arabia. Israeli fighter jets were scrambled. Airspace was briefly closed. A man trusted with the controls of a commercial flight to Israel allegedly used that access to try to kill the people in the back. Pat also covered: Trump says the last U.S. troops are out of Iraq. The Pentagon calls the Erbil pullout done, and Trump brands the war a “quagmire” and an “excursion into hell.” Tennessee failed to execute Christa Pike, the only woman on its death row, after two doses of pentobarbital. Vice President JD Vance says James Talarico wears Christianity as a "skin suit" to get elected. A Rasmussen/Our Republic poll found 19% of likely voters would accept a deal that dismantles Israel if oil and gas prices get cut.

Misha Glenny delves in to the In Our Time archive to select ten episodes for listeners to revisit. His ninth choice is the episode on Jane Austen's novel Emma, first released in November 2015. Austen described her leading character as "a heroine whom no-one but myself will much like." Emma is one of Austen's most popular novels and arguably her masterpiece, a brilliantly sparkling comedy of manners published in December 1815 by John Murray, the last to be published in Austen's lifetime. This followed Sense and Sensibility (1811), Pride and Prejudice (1813) and Mansfield Park (1814), with her brother Henry handling publication of Northanger Abbey and Persuasion (1817).WithJanet Todd Professor Emerita of Literature, University of Aberdeen and Honorary Fellow of Newnham College, CambridgeJohn Mullan Professor of English at University College, LondonAndEmma Clery Professor of English at the University of Southampton.Producer: Simon TillotsonReading list:Marilyn Butler, Jane Austen and the War of Ideas (first published 1975; Oxford University Press, 1988)Edward Copeland and Juliet McMaster (eds.), The Cambridge Companion to Jane Austen (Cambridge University Press, 2010)Richard Jenkyns, A Fine Brush on Ivory: An Appreciation of Jane Austen (Oxford University Press, 2004)Claudia Johnson, Jane Austen: Women, Politics and the Novel (University of Chicago Press, 1988)Peter Knox-Shaw, Jane Austen and the Enlightenment (Cambridge University Press, 2004)David Monaghan (ed.), Emma (New Casebook Series, Palgrave Macmillan, 1992)Anthony Mandal, Jane Austen and the Popular Novel (Palgrave Macmillan, 2007)John Mullan, What Matters in Jane Austen?: Twenty Crucial Puzzles Solved (Bloomsbury, 2012)Bharat Tandon, Jane Austen and the Morality of Conversation (Anthem, 2003)Tony Tanner, Jane Austen (first published 1986; Palgrave Macmillan, 2007)Janet Todd, The Cambridge Introduction to Jane Austen (Cambridge University Press, 2015)John Wiltshire, The Hidden Jane Austen (Cambridge University Press, 2014)John Wiltshire, Jane Austen and the Body (Cambridge University Press, 1992)In Our Time is a BBC Studios productionSpanning history, religion, culture, science and philosophy, In Our Time from BBC Radio 4 is essential listening for the intellectually curious.

Gordon Ramsay is bringing Kitchen Nightmares to Missouri, which immediately has Riz reminiscing about the horrifying realization that he once ate at a restaurant featured on the show. Nothing improves a cherished dining memory quite like watching Gordon Ramsay walk through the kitchen afterward and scream about what was living in the refrigerator.Welcome to another funny show from The Rizzuto Show, where we discuss whether Gordon's legendary rage is mostly an act, why “Gordo” is an underrated nickname and then move directly into the intellectual gauntlet known as the Riz Quiz.The rules are simple: 45 seconds of basic trivia, no skips and one wrong answer ends your run. Sounds easy until someone asks you the capital of France and suddenly Paris becomes forbidden knowledge.The callers battle through questions about guacamole, spiders, Pinocchio, sports, traffic lights and geography for concert tickets. We get some legitimately impressive runs — and then poor Bill steps up looking for redemption and immediately says a dried plum is a raisin.Bill, buddy. We love you. It's a prune.Then the crew decides to play along with a tiebreaker question: How tall is the Space Needle?King Scott guesses 465 feet. Moon guesses 615. Rafe goes with 820.And Lern?12,549 feet.For perspective, the actual answer given on the show is 605 feet. Lern has apparently constructed a Space Needle so massive that visitors need oxygen and possibly clearance from air traffic control. She admits she's “measurement blind,” which quickly becomes one of the great understatements in funny show history.That leads us into a completely reasonable discussion about whether anyone on the show could accurately estimate the height of the studio window, followed by the more concerning question of how everyone would escape if they couldn't use the door. Chairs are considered. The soundproof glass is analyzed. Rafe volunteers to Kool-Aid Man himself through the window because apparently being the show hero now includes testing your body against commercial-grade glass.And somehow that brings us to the incredible story of a University of Georgia student who survived an eight-story fall from an apartment window after dancing on a couch. She reportedly landed on a cushioned metal bench and survived with serious injuries, which has the crew marveling at an unbelievably lucky landing — and wondering who decided furniture belonged directly next to floor-to-ceiling windows in the first place.So we've got Gordon Ramsay, Kitchen Nightmares, trivia meltdowns, Paris confusion, raisins pretending to be prunes, a skyscraper-sized Space Needle and Rafe preparing to launch himself through the studio glass.Just another educational funny show from The Rizzuto Show.We're all learning together.

You do not need a periodized plan to build high-level performance. Guillermo Blanco started lifting in eighth grade before moving through Division I football programs, collegiate strength coaching, multi-ply powerlifting, and training military populations in the Army's H2F program. Facing unpredictable deployment schedules, minimal equipment, and low training ages, he abandoned rigid percentage-based periodization in favor of adaptable general physical preparedness that keeps lifters performing when life destroys the plan. INSIDE THIS CONVERSATION The Posterior Chain Deficit: Why high school, collegiate, and military athletes all lack back strength. Gym in a Box Constraints: Programming for 100+ soldiers with minimal equipment and unpredictable schedules. Periodization Fallacy: Why strict yearly plans fail tactical populations and how to train for adaptability. The 1x20 Protocol: Using simple high-rep total-body circuits to build rapid work capacity in athletes. Raw to Multi-Ply Evolution: How lifting in gear built long-term raw strength and joint resilience. Minimal Effective Strain: Finding the exact training dose needed to make continuous strength gains. MEET THE GUEST Guillermo Blanco is a tactical strength and conditioning coach with 15 years of experience across military performance, collegiate athletics, private sports performance, and competitive powerlifting. He holds a master's degree in exercise physiology from the University of Louisville, a bachelor's degree in kinesiology from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and has been an NSCA CSCS since 2013. Guillermo previously served as head powerlifting coach, assistant athletic performance coach, and adjunct instructor at McKendree University, alongside experience with Aurora University and University of Illinois football. Across raw, classic raw, and multi-ply powerlifting, he translates real-world barbell mastery into practical training principles for high-demand populations.

This week's Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report covers the early-October transition along the Alabama Gulf Coast, with offshore tuna and swordfish, close-in cobia, big triple tail, Spanish mackerel, slot redfish, surf fishing, and changing fall conditions. Butch Thierry is joined by Angelo DePaola, who opens the show with a look at the shifting weather, the challenge of making fishing plans around rough fall forecasts, and why anglers still have to take their windows when they get them. Capt. Cody Broughton checks in from Dauphin Island with an offshore report focused on yellowfin tuna, swordfish, and bottom fishing. Cody explains why late September and October are some of his favorite times to fish, how he's been live-bait chumming for tuna, and why greenbacks, natural presentations, nose-hooked baits, and Seaguar Gold fluorocarbon have helped him get bites. He also breaks down a recent daytime swordfish bite on a buoy rod, how the fish behaved during the fight, and why swordfish can be so unpredictable once they are hooked. Capt. Richard Rutland of Cold Blooded Fishing follows with a detailed cobia and triple tail report built around the tagging work he's been doing with the University of South Alabama. Richard explains how the team is acoustic-tagging cobia and triple tail, collecting fin clips and diet samples, deploying satellite tags, and offering reward tags for recaptured fish. He also shares what he's learned from spending so much time targeting these fish, including why live bait has been critical for cobia, how bait preference can change week to week, and why anglers need to watch both the bottom machine and the surface when fishing ships, buoys, rigs, and other vertical structure. Richard also digs deep into triple tail tactics, including how to cover water, find productive regions, read tide lines, blind-fish poles and buoys, and decide when to slow down. He explains why shrimp worked well earlier, why small pogies have become a better option as spadefish, mangroves, and pinfish crowd the structure, and how to fish slip corks, short leaders, circle hooks, heavier braid, and locked-down drags around big blackfish. He also shares how tide lines with logs, buckets, bait, and other floating debris can produce some of the best and most forgiving triple tail opportunities of the season. To close the episode, David Thornton, The Pier Pounder, reports from Gulf State Park Pier and the surf. David explains that water temperatures have stayed warmer than normal, bait has been inconsistent, and the typical late-September mackerel pattern has been slower than expected. Still, Spanish mackerel, bluefish, slot redfish, speckled trout, flounder, mangrove snapper, whiting, and pompano are all in play when anglers can find bait, clean water, and the right window. The episode wraps with a reminder that fall fishing is close, but the next real push may depend on cooler water, better bait concentrations, and the weather settling down after the coming rain and wind.

HEALTH NEWS   Study Links High Polyphenol Intake to Reduced Risk of Short Telomeres Ashwagandha root extract on sexual health in healthy men What science says about ultraprocessed foods and the aging brain Study finds oral hormone replacement therapy increases venous thromboembolism risk Watercress Trial Reports Increases in Detoxification Byproducts       Study Links High Polyphenol Intake to Reduced Risk of Short Telomeres University of Navarra (Spain), September 24 2026 (Natural News)      A study has found that individuals with the highest dietary intake of polyphenols had a 52% lower risk of having short telomeres compared with those who consumed the least. Researchers from the University of Navarra in Pamplona, Spain, measured telomere length in samples from more than 1,700 adults in 2008 and again in 2015, according to the study.   Telomeres are protective caps at the ends of chromosomes that safeguard DNA information inside cells. Shorter telomeres have been linked to an increased risk of age-related diseases including cardiovascular disease, Type 2 diabetes, some cancers and overall mortality, the study noted. The findings add to growing evidence that diet plays a role in cellular aging. Moderate coffee consumption of up to one cup per day was associated with a 26% lower risk of short telomeres compared with non-consumers, according to the researchers. Participants who ate four to five servings of fruit daily had a 29% lower risk of short telomeres compared with those who ate the least fruit. Overall, participants with the highest total polyphenol intake had a 52% lower risk of short telomeres.   Other polyphenol-rich foods such as olive oil, red wine and vegetables did not show a statistically significant effect on telomere length in this study. A separate study found that higher blood levels of theobromine, a compound in cocoa, were associated with longer telomeres, specifically linked to theobromine rather than other cocoa or coffee metabolites.   Previous work has also shown that walnuts, which contain polyphenols, can help preserve telomere length. The current study assessed overall polyphenol consumption through dietary questionnaires rather than measuring specific compounds in blood.   Ashwagandha root extract on sexual health in healthy men Aman Hospital and Research Center (India), August 12 2026 (Front. Reproductive Health) Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is widely recognized in Ayurvedic medicine as a potent Rasayana and aphrodisiac herb, with preclinical studies demonstrating androgen-modulating, anxiolytic, and antioxidant properties that may enhance male reproductive physiology. The present study aimed to rigorously evaluate the efficacy and safety of a standardized Ashwagandha Root Extract (ARE) in improving sexual function in healthy adult men. A prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group clinical trial was conducted over 8 weeks in 76 healthy males aged 30–50 years. Participants were randomized (1:1) to receive either 300 mg ARE twice daily or a matched placebo. ARE supplementation resulted in statistically significant improvements across multiple domains of sexual function compared with placebo, including SDI-2 scores, SSEs, sexual desire, and overall IIEF outcomes. Semen analysis demonstrated a 36% increase in ejaculate volume, 38% improvement in total sperm count, and an 87% increase in total sperm motility after 8 weeks, with moderate to large effect sizes indicating clinically meaningful benefits. No adverse events or safety concerns were reported. What science says about ultraprocessed foods and the aging brain Louisiana State University, September 23 2026 (Eurekalert) The colorings, additives and preservatives added to food products, as well as food processing techniques, are a source of great concern because they are ubiquitous worldwide, yet the effects of these items on metabolic health are not fully understood. In addition, researchers are increasingly investigating how these dietary items may also affect the brain as people age. The review examines several ways diet could potentially influence the aging brain, including pathways involving metabolism, inflammation, vascular health and other biological processes. It also considers evidence connecting ultraprocessed food consumption with cognitive performance and dementia-related outcomes. The bottom line is that the data is concerning.   Study finds oral hormone replacement therapy increases venous thromboembolism risk Steno Diabetes Centre Copenhagen, September 24 2026 (News-Medical) Current use of oral menopausal hormone therapy (commonly known as hormone replacement therapy or HRT) is associated with an increased risk of blood clots in legs / lungs regardless of dose or treatment duration, finds a large Danish study published by The BMJ . Researchers searched Danish health registry data for women aged 50-69 living in Denmark between 2003 and 2021 and diagnosed with a first venous thromboembolism, ischemic stroke, or heart attack (myocardial infarction). None of the women had a history of blood clots, cancer, liver disease, endometriosis, polycystic ovary syndrome, fertility treatment or surgery to remove ovaries (oophorectomy). Among women unexposed to hormone therapy, rates of venous thromboembolism, ischaemic stroke, and heart attack were 15.8, 20.3, and 13.0 per 10,000 person-years, respectively. Oral oestrogen therapy (alone or with progestin) was associated with one extra venous thromboembolism case per 1,055 women taking oral hormone therapy for one year, one extra stroke per 1,642, and one extra heart attack per 3,846. Oral therapy was consistently associated with increased venous thromboembolism risk, whereas increased stroke and heart attack risks were confined to those taking high-dose oral oestradiol (above 1 mg/day) for more than a year, rising with longer use.   Watercress Trial Reports Increases in Detoxification Byproducts University of Minnesota, September 28 2026 (Natural News)     A randomized crossover trial examined whether a watercress beverage affected urinary mercapturic acids, the byproducts produced when the body processes environmental toxins.   Researchers recruited 188 participants with full compliance. Participants spent two weeks drinking the watercress beverage, then two weeks drinking a matched placebo, with a one-month break separating the two phases, according to the report. Detoxification byproducts for six separate environmental toxicants rose significantly during the watercress phase compared with the placebo phase. Two increases stood out clearly.   Acrolein detoxification rose 65.6%, and benzene detoxification rose 37.3%, both reaching strong statistical significance, according to the report. Watercress contains a concentrated dose of a plant compound called phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC), and researchers believe PEITC drives the entire effect. PEITC activates the glutathione detoxification pathway, one of the body's primary systems for neutralizing toxic compounds and flagging them for removal, the report stated.

Net Zero was once a radical idea. Now it's both an accepted global target, and an increasingly toxic political faultline.This week, Tom is back from the UN General Assembly and New York Climate week, where António Guterres used his last speech as UN Secretary-General to call for every country to set a timeline for quitting fossil fuels. But around the world, politicians are turning against the very idea. In Britain, a committee of MPs now wants the government to stop saying "net zero" altogether. Should the climate movement let the phrase go, or will its opponents simply come for whatever replaces it?Christiana Figueres and Paul chat to Professor Phil Taylor, Vice-Chancellor of the University of Bath and a member of the government's Net Zero Innovation Board. Phil grew up in a North East England still living with the fallout of its last industrial transition. He warns that the cheapest, easiest progress has already been made. And so far the households gaining the most from the energy transition are the ones who can afford the shift. So, with energy bills set to rise again, what happens when a shift sold as painless starts to hurt? And can politicians be honest about the costs and still win?Outrage + Optimism will be live at Bath Abbey on 14 October, after this summer's extreme heat forced the original event to be cancelled.

On this episode of Texas Take, host Jeremy Wallace examines a major voter registration backlog with Republican state Sen. Paul Bettencourt and what it could mean with Election Day approaching. The glitch has affected at least tens of thousands of voters in an election cycle that could be one of the closest in Texas history. Later, Austin American-Statesman reporter John Moritz joins Jeremy to break down the flood of money pouring into the U.S. Senate race, while Houston Chronicle reporter Ben Wermund explains Gov. Greg Abbott's rapidly changing stance on data centers. Plus, Jeremy looks across the border in Texarkana at the backlash surrounding Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders' controversial welfare ad and how it ties into the backlash against Texas Railroad Commission candidate Bo French and his criticism that the University of Texas has too many non-white students.

Segregation, poverty, and a complete lack of role models didn't stop pioneering kidney transplant surgeon Dr. Samuel L. Kountz from transforming modern medicine, and his story is finally being told in depth. In this episode of Marketer of the Day, Dr. David Kountz, M.D. shares insights from his book A Life of Impact, a biography of his father's journey from rural Arkansas in the segregated South to worldwide recognition as a transplant innovator. Listeners will hear how a childhood incident watching a surgeon repair a friend's broken leg sparked an “impossible” dream for a young Black boy with no clear path into medicine. The episode explores how Dr. Samuel Kountz navigated racist barriers, built key relationships such as with future Senator William Fulbright, and persisted through under-resourced schooling to eventually enter the University of Arkansas medical school. You'll learn how his background in chemistry and immunology positioned him perfectly to enter the brand-new field of organ transplantation in the late 1950s and early 1960s. This conversation sets the stage for understanding not just one man's rise, but how his determination changed what was medically and socially possible. The episode dives into Dr. Kountz's remarkable surgical career, during which he performed over 500 kidney transplants at a time when the procedure was still viewed as highly experimental. Dr. David Kountz explains how his father combined technical excellence with extraordinary bedside manner, earning the trust of patients and families facing terrifying, unproven treatments. Listeners will hear how consent conversations in that era were radically different from today, requiring patients to take a leap of faith on what felt like science fiction, moving organs from one human to another to save a life. The story highlights that while modern audiences may take kidney, heart, and organ transplants for granted, in the 1960s this work was “like landing on the moon.” Beyond the operating room, the episode emphasizes how Dr. Kountz championed teamwork, insisting that transplant success depended on nurses, surgeons, and the entire care team performing in sync. These details give the audience a vivid look into the human, ethical, and emotional dimensions behind a procedure that is now routine but was once controversial and feared. https://youtu.be/4bX8oFK7iw0?si=4pZP_r7cTEVIgbhq A key highlight of the conversation is the 1976 live kidney transplant on the Today Show, an audacious public education effort that led to roughly 20,000 new organ donors signing up in the weeks after it aired. Dr. David Kountz describes watching that broadcast as a teenager, understanding the enormous risk to his father's reputation if anything went wrong, and witnessing his calm confidence born of repetition and mastery. The episode explores how this national TV moment helped demystify transplantation for both the public and skeptical physicians, shifting it from fringe experiment to mainstream medicine. Listeners also learn how Dr. David Kountz forged his own path in internal medicine and medical education, intentionally avoiding being a “carbon copy” of his father while still being guided by his example of joy, optimism, and purpose-driven work. He shares powerful life lessons, including his personal mantra of taking work seriously but not taking oneself too seriously, and using humor and levity to ease anxiety for students and patients. By the end, the episode frames A Life of Impact not just as a medical biography, but as a universal blueprint for resilience, focus, and staying committed to your goals despite discrimination, doubt, and seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Quotes: "He understood he needed to demystify it; to make it a very real kind of event so that people could see transplantation not as science fiction, but as a medical reality that would become more and more common." "You should never not be willing to look for help and look for others who can help you achieve your dreams." "Anywhere he would go and try to start a new transplant program, you could educate one very smart person who's the surgeon, but you also have to educate that entire team."

In this episode of the Fit Father Project Podcast, I continue our Blind Spots series with a topic most men never think about until it's a problem: Hearing loss.We walk through why age-related hearing loss (presbycusis) isn't some unlucky draw — it's the default trajectory of the human body, and it's already starting for a lot of you in your 40s and 50s.I break down what's actually happening inside your inner ear, why listening becomes cognitively expensive as your hearing declines, and why that cognitive load gets pulled from the same bank account your brain uses for memory and balance.We cover a landmark study linking mild hearing loss to nearly triple the odds of falling, a 2024 Lancet Commission report naming hearing loss the single largest modifiable risk factor for dementia, a simple five-question self-test you can run tonight, and the specific decibel math that explains why your earbuds might be doing more damage than a lawnmower.I close with the nutrition, cardiovascular, and lifestyle habits that protect the hearing you have left — because this isn't just about your ears.It's about staying present, sharp, and steady for your family for life.Rate & Review — If this episode gave you something new to think about, please take a moment to rate and review the Fit Father Project Podcast. Your review helps more busy dads discover practical, science-backed health conversations that can genuinely change their lives.Join the Fit Father Project Community — If you're ready to put these lessons into action with support, accountability, and a brotherhood of men committed to thriving after 40, come join us. We're here to help you build real, lasting health together.Key TakeawaysHearing loss isn't rare bad luck — it's the default trajectory of aging. About 1 in 3 adults age 65-74 has it, nearly half of those over 75 do, and it's already measurable in roughly 1 in 4 adults age 55-64.Listening gets cognitively expensive as your hearing declines. Your brain pays for hearing loss out of the same account it uses for memory, attention, and balance — which is why a loud dinner can leave you completely wiped out.A landmark study (Lin & Ferrucci) found that a mild, 25-decibel hearing loss was linked to nearly 3x higher odds of having fallen in the past year, with every additional 10 decibels adding another 1.4x risk.A 2024 Lancet Commission report identified 14 modifiable dementia risk factors — and hearing loss was the single largest contributor on that entire list.Run the "restaurant test" tonight: if you miss words in group conversation, notice people "mumbling," watch mouths to follow along, feel drained after social nights, or get TV volume comments — two or more yeses means it's time for a hearing test.Decibels are logarithmic, not linear. Earbuds at full volume (110 dB) are only safe for about 15 minutes — doing the same damage to your inner ear that 8 hours of mowing the lawn would.Get a baseline audiogram in your 40s or 50s while your hearing is still normal. It's painless, takes 30-60 minutes, needs no prescription, and is often free at places like Costco.Cardiovascular fitness directly protects your hearing — the inner ear's hair cells rely on fragile, backup-free blood flow, so the same training that protects your heart protects your ears.Nutrition matters: folate-rich foods (lentils, chickpeas, leafy greens, avocado) support low-frequency hearing, and 2+ servings of fish per week is linked to a 20% lower risk of hearing loss.Sudden hearing loss in one or both ears is a medical emergency, not a wait-and-see situation — get it checked out immediately.Ready For A Real Change?

Dr. Anthony Balduzzi holds dual degrees in Psychology & Nutrition from the University of Pennsylvania, a Doctorate of Naturopathic Medicine, and is also a former national champion bodybuilder. He's most proud of the fact that he's helped over 60,000 families in over 125+ countries lose weight and get healthy for life.Please know that weight loss results and health changes/improvements vary individually; you may not achieve similar results. Always consult with your doctor before making health decisions. This is not medical advice – simply very well-researched information on longevity, hearing health, and healthy aging.

It's a story that's unfolding across America, from Texas to Tennessee, Kansas to the Rust Belt — rural hospitals are struggling or closing, leaving residents, towns, and entire regions without access to important healthcare services, from cancer screenings to maternity care. For some people, it can even mean a several-hour drive to the nearest emergency room — and in life-or-death situations, those extra miles can make a big difference. On this episode, we explore the rural healthcare crisis, and emerging solutions aimed at increasing — or at least preserving — access to care. We visit communities in rural Pennsylvania where residents are fighting to save their hospitals. We find out how other systemic pressures, like prior authorization, are squeezing rural healthcare systems. And we hear about potential solutions, ranging from state-funded reimbursement programs, to sophisticated “hospitals on wheels” aimed at bringing healthcare to the people.SHOW NOTES: Reporters Nicole Leonard and Alan Yu take us on a journey to two towns in rural Pennsylvania facing similar pressures — Bradford, a once-booming oil town now in decline, and Honesdale, a former railway hub nestled in the Pocono Mountains. For years, both locales have dealt with shrinking populations and a loss of businesses. We hear about the residents' efforts and struggles to save their hospitals. Many states, including Pennsylvania, have been working to prevent hospital closures in rural areas through experimental initiatives aimed at shoring up their finances. The Pulse's Alan Yu explains how one such initiative — the Pennsylvania Rural Health Model — aimed to combat these financial pressures by replacing the traditional fee-for-service model with a value-based model, which shifts the focus to preventative care in exchange for fixed, predictable funding. We explore how the five-year experiment played out — and why economists say it didn't ultimately work for some hospitals.  We talk with Miranda Yaver, an assistant professor of health policy at the University of Pittsburgh, about another challenge squeezing rural hospitals — prior authorization. Her new book is “Coverage Denied: How Health Insurers Drive Inequality in the United States.” In some parts of rural America, patients have to travel hours in order to access care — but what if medical care could come to them? That's the idea behind a new, federally funded program called PARADIGM, which deploys AI-enabled mobile health units to patients who don't have access to healthcare. We talk with PARADIGM's director, emergency medicine physician Bon Ku, about how these mobile clinics work, and  hear from reporter Grant Hill about one of the program's latest creations — MARCUS, a futuristic hospital on wheels that contains an exam room, scanning machines, and even a laboratory.

LIVE from ILADS: Tick Boot Camp sits down with Dr. Somer DelSignore, DNP, BC-PNP, founder of Hudson Valley Integrative Health in Beacon, New York, for a wide-ranging conversation about pediatric Lyme disease, congenital tick-borne infections, autism spectrum symptoms, PANS/PANDAS, autoimmune encephalopathy, developmental delays, behavioral changes, and the importance of investigating potential biological contributors to neuroimmune dysfunction. Dr. DelSignore practices integrative pediatrics with a focus on children experiencing complex chronic illness and neuroimmune symptoms. Rather than stopping at a behavioral or developmental diagnosis, she describes a root-cause approach that asks a deeper question: What biological processes could be contributing to this child's symptoms? The conversation explores some challenging and evolving areas of medicine, including possible relationships among infections, inflammation, immune dysfunction, neurological development, and behavioral symptoms. Dr. DelSignore shares observations from her clinical practice and argues for more comprehensive biomedical evaluation of children with complex or atypical presentations. This interview was recorded live at the ILADS conference, so you may hear some of the energy and background activity of the event throughout the conversation. Looking Beyond a Pediatric Diagnosis Dr. DelSignore describes treating children who don't always fit neatly into one diagnostic category. Some arrive with: Autism spectrum diagnoses or symptoms Developmental delays Behavioral changes Cognitive difficulties Motor delays Speech and language delays PANS/PANDAS Autoimmune or neuroimmune symptoms Suspected congenital Lyme disease Other tick-borne infections A pattern she says sometimes catches parents' attention is an unexpected improvement when a child receives treatment for an unrelated infection. Parents may report that their child temporarily gains language, motor, behavioral, or other skills while taking an antibiotic, only to regress after treatment ends. For Dr. DelSignore, observations like these are clues that warrant further investigation rather than immediate conclusions. Root-Cause Medicine for Children Dr. DelSignore describes her work as a form of detective work. A diagnosis describes what clinicians are observing, but she wants to investigate why those symptoms are occurring. When a child presents with neurological, developmental, behavioral, or immune dysfunction, she evaluates possible contributors and works backward from the symptoms. That may involve extensive history-taking, laboratory evaluation, the child's medical history, environmental factors, immune function, infections, inflammation, genetics, and sometimes the parents' medical histories. Once potential contributors are identified, her goal is not only to address them but also to support the immune and neurological systems as the child progresses. Learn more about Dr. Somer DelSignore and Hudson Valley Integrative Health. Congenital Lyme & Tick-Borne Infections One of the most important subjects in this conversation is congenital or maternal-fetal transmission of tick-borne infections. Dr. DelSignore discusses evaluating both children and their parents when the child's presentation suggests that infection or immune dysfunction could have begun during pregnancy or early development. She specifically discusses Borrelia, Bartonella, and Babesia — the pathogens Tick Boot Camp often refers to as the Three B's — in the context of her clinical work. Dr. DelSignore also discusses another possibility: even when direct transmission isn't established in an individual case, maternal infection and inflammation during pregnancy could potentially influence fetal immune or neurological development. These are complex and evolving areas of research, and determining what occurred in an individual child requires careful clinical evaluation rather than assuming that every developmental or neuroimmune condition has an infectious cause. Why Family History Matters With very young patients, Dr. DelSignore says the parents' history can become especially important. She asks mothers questions such as: Were you exposed to ticks? Did you experience unexplained symptoms before or during pregnancy? Did you have unusual illnesses earlier in life? Did you struggle with immune dysfunction? Do you have autoimmune conditions? Were there infections or inflammatory problems during pregnancy? For an infant who cannot describe symptoms, family history may provide clues that aren't available from the child alone. Dr. DelSignore combines that history with clinical presentation and diagnostic testing when deciding what warrants further investigation. What Might Lyme Disease Look Like in a Young Child? Young children present a unique diagnostic challenge. They cannot necessarily explain that they are exhausted, experiencing pain, having temperature changes, or feeling neurologically different. Dr. DelSignore describes seeing infants with findings such as hypotonia — unusually low muscle tone — along with feeding and sleeping difficulties that extend beyond what would ordinarily be expected. As children grow, additional clues may emerge. Clinicians and parents can begin evaluating whether a child is: Sitting appropriately Crawling Developing speech Gaining words Building sentences Developing motor skills Interacting socially Meeting expected developmental milestones Dr. DelSignore emphasizes that none of these signs by themselves diagnose Lyme disease or another tick-borne infection. Instead, they may be reasons to investigate further when considered alongside medical history, exposures, physical findings, and other symptoms. Behavioral Symptoms in Toddlers & Children In toddlers and older children with tick-borne illness, Dr. DelSignore says the presentation can become heavily neurological or behavioral. She discusses symptoms including: Irritability Impulsivity Poor sleep Delayed speech Social difficulties Auditory sensitivity Visual sensitivity Anxiety Depression OCD-like behaviors Rage Fatigue Sweating Temperature dysregulation The difficulty is obvious: many of these symptoms overlap with other pediatric neurological, developmental, psychiatric, and medical conditions. A nonverbal child also may not be able to report fatigue, pain, headaches, sensory changes, or other physical symptoms. That overlap is one reason Dr. DelSignore argues against trying to identify tick-borne illness from behavior alone. Autism, Lyme Disease & an Important Distinction A substantial portion of this conversation explores autism and possible biological contributors to autism-spectrum presentations. This requires an important distinction. Autism is not synonymous with Lyme disease, and an autism diagnosis by itself does not establish the presence of a tick-borne infection. Dr. DelSignore's position is that some children diagnosed with autism or presenting with autism-like symptoms may also have infections, inflammation, autoimmune processes, or other biomedical issues that deserve investigation. She describes autism as a syndrome diagnosed from patterns of behavior and development rather than through a single definitive laboratory test. From her root-cause perspective, she therefore asks what potentially modifiable biological factors might coexist with or contribute to an individual child's presentation. This distinction is especially important because the scientific questions surrounding infection, immune activation, neurodevelopment, and autism remain complex and actively studied. Can Treating an Infection Change Developmental Symptoms? Dr. DelSignore shares clinical experiences in which she says children experienced substantial developmental and behavioral improvement after underlying infections and immune dysfunction were addressed. She discusses one case involving a nonverbal child with significant autism-spectrum symptoms whom she says tested positive for Borrelia, Bartonella, and Babesia in the context of suspected maternal transmission. Following treatment, she reports that the child progressed dramatically and was functioning much more typically by school age. This is a clinical case described by Dr. DelSignore, not evidence that tick-borne infections explain autism broadly or that antimicrobial treatment is an established autism treatment. What it illustrates is the central argument she makes throughout this episode: When a child's presentation is unusual or complex, clinicians should remain curious about potentially treatable medical contributors. The Neuroimmune Connection Dr. DelSignore encourages clinicians to think about some pediatric presentations through a neuroimmune lens. The nervous system and immune system don't operate independently. Infection can trigger immune activity and inflammation, and immune dysfunction can have neurological consequences. Dr. DelSignore discusses evaluating children for both infections and evidence of autoimmune activity when clinically appropriate. Rather than attempting to draw a clean line between a behavioral diagnosis and an infectious diagnosis, she looks at the entire clinical picture and asks what combination of processes could be affecting that individual child. PANS/PANDAS & Autoimmune Encephalopathy This same framework is relevant to Dr. DelSignore's work with PANS, PANDAS, and autoimmune encephalopathy. Children with these conditions can experience dramatic neuropsychiatric or behavioral changes associated with immune activation. Dr. DelSignore's clinical focus includes identifying possible infectious and inflammatory triggers and then addressing both the trigger and the downstream immune or neurological dysfunction. Her work therefore overlaps infectious disease, immunology, neurology, psychiatry, and developmental pediatrics rather than remaining confined to a single specialty. ILADS identifies Dr. DelSignore's areas of focus as neuroimmunology, autism spectrum disorder, PANS/PANDAS, and chronic/congenital Lyme disease. Why Comprehensive Evaluation Matters One of Dr. DelSignore's strongest messages is that children with complex developmental or behavioral presentations deserve a thorough medical evaluation. She says older children often reach her practice after seeing numerous providers while their symptoms have been characterized primarily as behavioral or psychiatric. By the time they arrive, some families have spent years searching for explanations. Dr. DelSignore advocates looking more broadly at potential contributors, including infection, immune dysfunction, inflammation, environmental exposures, genetics, nutrition, and other biological factors when clinically indicated. The goal isn't to assume every child has Lyme disease. It's to ask enough questions before deciding that nothing else is contributing to the child's symptoms. Psychiatric Symptoms Can Have Medical Contributors The conversation also examines the relationship between physical health and psychiatric symptoms. Dr. DelSignore describes situations in which she believes infection-driven immune activation and neuroinflammation may contribute to anxiety, depression, irritability, OCD-like behaviors, rage, and other neuropsychiatric symptoms. She argues for investigating potential biological contributors rather than automatically treating every behavioral presentation as an isolated psychiatric problem. At the same time, the conversation acknowledges that psychiatric medications can be appropriate and important for some patients. The larger message is individualized care: evaluate the whole child and determine what combination of supports that particular patient needs. No Single Cause of Autism Near the end of the interview, the conversation turns to claims about acetaminophen/Tylenol use during pregnancy and autism. Dr. DelSignore rejects the idea that there is a simple, single explanation for autism. She describes autism as potentially involving many interacting factors and argues that research findings about individual exposures need to be interpreted in context rather than reduced to a headline claiming one substance "causes autism." Her broader point aligns with the philosophy she describes throughout the interview: There is no simple answer for a complex biological system. Instead, she looks for what she describes as a "stacking" of contributing factors that may differ substantially from one child to another. Can Women with Lyme Disease Have Children? The interview closes on a question that creates tremendous fear for many young women diagnosed with Lyme disease: Can I safely have a child? Tick Boot Camp raises the importance of helping women understand congenital Lyme disease, pregnancy, treatment before conception, care during pregnancy, and what parents and clinicians should consider after birth. Dr. DelSignore agrees that these questions deserve much deeper discussion. The existence of congenital transmission concerns should not be interpreted as meaning that someone with Lyme disease cannot have a healthy pregnancy or healthy child. Instead, it reinforces the value of working with knowledgeable healthcare professionals to develop an individualized plan before and during pregnancy.

The University of Maine System voted to strip former U.S. Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell's name from university programs and honors after renewed scrutiny of his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. The Board of Trustees voted 9-5, with one abstention, to remove Mitchell's name from the George J. Mitchell Center for Sustainability Solutions and the George J. Mitchell Peace Scholarship. The decision followed a university task force review prompted by newly released Epstein-related records, which showed Mitchell's name appearing hundreds of times and documented continued contact with Epstein after Epstein's 2008 conviction. The task force stressed that it was not making a finding that Mitchell had committed wrongdoing, but concluded that keeping his name attached to university institutions could damage public trust and the university's reputation.The controversy went beyond simple association. Virginia Giuffre had previously alleged that Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell trafficked her to Mitchell while she was underage, an allegation Mitchell repeatedly denied, saying he never met Giuffre and had no knowledge of Epstein's criminal conduct. Additional records later revealed a 2003 birthday-book message attributed to Mitchell describing his friendship with Epstein as one of the “blessings” in his life. Nearly three-quarters of people who submitted comments during the university's review supported removing Mitchell's name, and the University of Maine ultimately joined other institutions that had already begun distancing themselves from him, including Queen's University Belfast and institutions in Maine.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Democrat suffers humiliating blow after his close relationship with Jeffrey Epstein was exposed | Daily Mail Online
