It's Monday, August 3, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Equipping the Persecuted's warnings about endangered Nigerian Christians unheeded On July 1st, Equipping The Persecuted issued multiple terror alerts warning that Islamist Fulani Ethnic Militia were preparing coordinated attacks in Nigeria against Christian communities in the Plateau, Benue, and Southern Kaduna states. They publicly pleaded with the Nigerian government to protect these vulnerable villages before it was too late. Tragically, their warnings were ignored. In the three weeks since, more than 250 Christians have been murdered in the very communities they identified. The latest massacre took place on Saturday, August 1st in Naridon village in Southern Kaduna, where more than 30 Christians were slaughtered as terrorists attacked for hours. Once again, innocent families paid the price while help never came. Equipping The Persecuted is the only organization consistently issuing terror alerts to warn vulnerable Christian communities before attacks occur while also deploying immediate emergency aid when those attacks happen. While others document the tragedy, their teams are already on the ground paying hospital bills, delivering emergency food, caring for the wounded, and helping bury the dead. Based on the intelligence they are receiving, Equipping The Persecuted believes this current wave of violence is only the beginning. If you want to help our brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ in Nigeria, go to www.EquippingThePersecuted.org/donate Senator Hawley to Dr. Fauci: “A million people dead. You're getting rich!” As The Worldview reported last Friday, the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee questioned Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, about his culpability in a cover-up about the source of the COVID-19 virus and what happened subsequently. Shockingly, Dr. Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment 111 times, reported FoxNews. Republican Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri got righteously angry. HAWLEY: “Well, nothing says honesty like taking the Fifth, huh Doc? Let's try something. What day of the week is it today?” FAUCI: “On the advice of counsel, I respectfully decline to answer based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.” HAWLEY: “What color tie are you wearing?” FAUCI: “On the advice of counsel, I respectfully decline to answer based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.” HAWLEY: “Let's just get one thing straight. You don't have any rights under the Fifth Amendment because you've been pardoned, as you very well know, as the Supreme Court has been clear for a century and more. Brown vs Walker, 1896: ‘When he has been pardoned, he may not stand upon his privilege.' “You know that. Your lawyers sitting behind you, now shifting nervously in their chairs, they know it. This isn't about the Constitution. This isn't about the law. This is about contempt -- contempt for this body and contempt for the American people. “But I think I know why you're doing it. It's because you don't want to answer questions. It's because you did all kinds of terrible things. It's because during the pandemic you got rich. I mean, your net worth now is north of $12 million! “You got over a million dollars in cash awards during COVID, during a 24-month span during COVID. A million bucks you knocked down in cash money using federal resources. Now you're worth more than $12 million. You've got a pension that, in its first year, paid out north of $400,000 a year. “A million people dead. You're getting rich! A million people dead. You're using federal employees to get cash awards for you. A million people dead, and you're here taking the Fifth because you don't want to admit that what really happened in all that time was a multi-month, multi-year course of self-dealing. Isn't that true, Dr. Fauci?” FAUCI: “On the advice of counsel, I respectfully decline to answer, based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.” HAWLEY: “Yeah, well, silence is admission. And here's the real thing. At the end of the day, it wasn't just about the money, really. Was it? It was really about a power trip. I mean, through all of this, you wanted to be the most famous scientist in the world. You were so focused on getting every award and every drop of cash that you could, all because you wanted to be on TV. “You wanted to be the ‘sun god' of science. You wanted to be the guy who was in charge of it all. You wanted to lambast Trump. You wanted to make sure that nobody else stole your spotlight. You wanted to be ‘the guy.' “You had time to sit for InStyle magazine. Here's what you were doing with your time. You could sit for InStyle Magazine, but you can't answer questions for the American people. You could sit for InStyle Magazine, but you're here taking the Fifth. You could sit for InStyle Magazine and get a million bucks in cash awards, but now the cat's got your tongue. I bet he does. I tell you what. “Here's my conclusion from all of this. This was really all about you the whole time. Somewhere along the way, you lost your way. You may have been a good public servant at one time. I don't know, but I can tell you from reading your emails now, from looking at what you did, how you used your employees. Somewhere along the line, it became all about you. “You became a narcissist and a megalomaniac and a liar. You've lied to the American people, and you've lied to this body, and you've disgraced your profession by doing it. You called yourself ‘the most famous scientist in the world.' You've done more to harm science than anybody in my lifetime, and I hope you'll go home and write that in your diary.” Romans 14:12 says, “So then, each of us will give an account of ourselves to God.” By the way, check out a fascinating 17-minute video in which Scott Rouse, a behavior and body language expert, analyzes how he can tell Dr. Fauci was feeling tremendous stress during Senator Hawley's line of questioning. You can find it in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. When can someone plead the Fifth? The Pour Over media outlet addressed when someone can plead the Fifth Amendment. Any time a statement is compelled and might incriminate you. If someone is asked to testify or hand over evidence that could get them prosecuted, they can plead the Fifth. Is there anything that can override someone's Fifth Amendment right? Yes: immunity or a pardon which Dr. Fauci had from President Joe Biden. Pardoned people are exempt from prosecution, meaning they cannot incriminate themselves, and therefore should be allowed to invoke the Fifth Amendment. Leftist TV Host SHOCKED about our God-given rights Back on July 5, 2025, House Speaker Mike Johnson of Louisiana, an Evangelical, affirmed that our rights come from God, not government, something he has affirmed many times since then. JOHNSON: “We are so blessed. We should not take it for granted. We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal. It does not say born equal. It says created equal. “It is our Creator that gives us our rights. We are the first nation in the history of the world that acknowledged that our rights do not derive from government. They come from God Himself. (cheers) Those words up there, that motto, it says, "In God we trust” right above the speaker's rostrum. “Congress voted to put that there as a rebuke to the Soviets' worldview at the height of the Cold War. Why? Because communism, socialism find their root in Marxism, and Marxism begins with the belief that there is no God. It's wrong, and this Congress made a stand those many years ago, and we should do it again. “We're different. We're distinct. We're exceptional because we acknowledge that right there.” On July 27th, 2026, Speaker Johnson's affirmation that our rights come from God got under the skin of leftist TV host Katy Tur on MS NOW, formerly called MSNBC, She moderated a panel in which she questioned the legitimacy of that claim. Listen. TUR: “What about this passage from Mike Johnson declaring that ‘our rights do not derive from government, they come from You, our Creator and Heavenly Father.' Is this him putting God over the Declaration of Independence?” Needless to say, the most famous line of the Declaration of Independence says, “We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.” Jarrett Stepman of The Daily Signal rightly points out that “the concept that God is ‘above' the Declaration of Independence is in the Declaration of Independence. God's law supersedes man's law. Governments that deprive citizens of rights endowed by their Creator, without due process, are bad governments and are possibly illegitimate.” One of Katy Tur's guests on the leftist MS NOW network, Atlantic writer McKay Coppins, weighed in. He noted that her audience may not be familiar with the concept of God-given rights. COPPINS: “That idea is not wholly uncommon. I mean the idea that we have unalienable rights that come from God can be read in a fairly benign way -- which is basically that we have innate human rights, that our Constitution and our democratic government, are meant to codify. “The thing that might alarm some people is some of the rhetoric that we heard at this rally that we are in a spiritual battle, that the forces of good and evil are at work here, and that partisan politics is injected directly into the spiritual, Biblical rhetoric. “We have heard that for the last couple of years. It's been ratcheted up more and more, especially since Donald Trump lost in 2020. It can lead to some pretty dangerous places.” Lesbian co-owner of Seattle WNBA team fined for confrontation w/Christian teens As The Worldview reported on July 27th, 29-year-old Sophie Cunningham, an outspoken Christian WNBA player on the Indiana Fever team, has publicly opposed biological males competing in female sports and coming into female bathrooms and locker rooms. During the July 28th game against the Seattle Storm, two teenage girls, wearing XX-XY Athletics t-shirts, held a sign which read, “Thank you Sophie for speaking up for girls,” reports The Christian Post. Those shirts and the sign got under the skin of Celeste Keaton, a lesbian co-owner of the Seattle Storm who is faux married to co-owner Lisa Brummel. Romans 1:24 and 26 says, “Therefore, God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. ... God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones.” Not only did Keaton use foul language, calling the teen girls “insane,” but Keaton also claimed that somehow Jesus needed to forgive the Christian girls for affirming God's design of men and women. In an interview with Brandi Kruse, who organized an event affirming Cunningham outside the arena, one of the teen girls explained what happened. TEENAGE GIRL: “We were just sitting there with our signs that said, ‘We love Sophie. Thank you, Sophie, for speaking up.' Watching the game, being super respectful. We're just holding our signs and cheering for both teams. “And this lady, older lady, comes up to us. ‘Oh, I hope Jesus can forgive you for what sin you've done.'” Kruse interjected that she noticed the girl was crying. The girl agreed and said this. TEENAGE GIRL: “I've never been yelled at like that. I mean, I've had people hate on me on the internet, but that just took me by surprise because I thought she was gonna be nice. And then she started screaming at us. It's disappointing though too, because she's also a woman, and she just cussed out two 16-year-olds that were just trying to have fun. We're just trying to support Sophie.” Sophie Cunningham complimented the teens and blasted the Seattle Storm lesbian co-owner. Thankfully, the WNBA fined Keaton an undisclosed amount and suspended her from attending the Storm's next five home games, reports Fox13. In response, the Storm organization said, "We respect the league's decision to fine and suspend co-owner Celeste Keaton. We remain committed to creating a welcoming and respectful environment for anyone who attends a Storm game." In an X post, Sophie Cunningham wrote, “Bravo to those girls for standing up for what they believe.” She added that she was embarrassed about Seattle Storm co-owner Celeste Keaton's actions, saying, ”Shows the type of leader she is.” Three homeschool moms from Missouri, Colorado & Ontario weigh in Here at The Worldview, Nicki Jones in Carthage, Missouri said, “As a homeschool mom of four boys -- Adam (15), Elijah (13), Uriah (11), and Isaac (8), we enjoy listening to the newscast nearly every morning at the breakfast table as we do our Bible time and worldview discussions. Thank you for your faithfulness in this ministry!” Cherise in Bennett, Colorado wrote and said, “Adam, I just made a $102 donation from my children -- Dawson (14), Caidence (13), and Carmia (10). They tithe 10% to our church from cleaning houses, doing yard work, and babysitting. On top of that, they have another 10% for ‘blessings' and they chose to donate it to The Worldview. We hope it blesses you and the many, many people who listen to your newscast! Thank you for putting it out every weekday!” And Liz Williams in Ontario, Canada said, “Adam, I'm a homeschooling mom of two, with just one-year experience in homeschooling. I quit my full-time job to homeschool my 12 and 15-year-old. I'm very thankful for the work and the quality of work that The Worldview in 5 Minutes is doing. My kids and I listen to it during car rides or meals and love it. “I think one of the reasons we stick around, besides all the other good reasons, is your voice. I know you are a professional radio host. Your voice just made us feel like we are listening to a large radio station's production. I also deeply appreciate the news from a Christian worldview.” 43 Worldview listeners gave $15,409.17 And finally, by Saturday night at 6:15pm Central, 42 Worldview listeners stepped up to the plate and invested their treasure to fund the 6-member team behind The Worldview for another year. Our thanks to Josh and Gayathri in Goddard, Kansas, Yetta in Hudson, New York, and Daniel in Lititz, Pennsylvania – each of whom gave $25 as well as David in Brookings, South Dakota who gave $35. We appreciate Alan in Amelia Court House, Virginia, Amanda in Burpengary, Queensland, Australia, James in Barry, Wales, United Kingdom, and Leslie in Florham Park, New Jersey – each of whom gave $50 as well as Daniel in Clackamas, Oregon, Royal in Topeka, Kansas, Henry in Tazewell, Virginia, Mark in Grand Forks, North Dakota, Robert in Salado, Texas, and Chris in Dubois, Pennsylvania – each of whom gave $100.

We were touched by the generosity of Dennis and Alyssa in Castle Rock, Colorado who gave $347, Ben in Ames, Iowa who gave $350, James and Mary in Glade Valley, North Carolina who gave $365, Matthew in Marysville, Ohio who gave $400, Nicki in Carthage, Missouri who will continue her $35 monthly pledge for another year for a gift of $420, as well as Lee in Rapid City, South Dakota who gave $480, and an anonymous couple in Fort Belvoir, Virginia who will continue their pledge of $40/month for 12 months for a gift of $480. And we were blown away by Krystoffer in Fullerton, California who gave $500, Justin in Wray, Colorado who gave $500, Jack in Post Falls, Idaho who gave $500, Dean in Carol Stream, Illinois who gave $500, Matt, Amanda, Malachi and Samuel Dreyer in Greencastle, Indiana who gave $500, an anonymous donor from Kitchener, Ontario, Canada who gave $500, Keith and Nicole who pledged $50/month for 12 months for a gift of $600, Nellie in Caldwell, Idaho who gave $1,000, Albert in LaGrange, Indiana who gave $1,000, Dorian in Aurora, Colorado who gave $1,000, Tim and Toni in Keller, Texas who gave $1,000, Keith in Watrous, Saskatchewan, Canada who pledged $83.34/month for 12 months for a gift of $1,000, and Elizabeth in Carol Stream, Illinois who pledged $100/month for 12 months for a gift of $1,200. Wow! Those 43 gifts add up to $15,409.17. That's the most donors and the largest total amount we've seen in a single day throughout this July 2026 fundraiser. Ready for our new grand total? Drum roll please. (drum roll sound effect) $109,679.17 (sound effect of people cheering) For those of you who stepped up to the plate throughout the month, we are deeply grateful for your love and your sacrifice. We need to raise $13,820.83 by tonight! But we're not across the finish line yet! In order to hit our final goal of $123,500 on this spill over day – Monday, August 3rd -- God needs to prompt folks to give the FINAL $13,820.83 in order for the 6-member Worldview newscast team to be fully funded for another year. Would you prayerfully consider being one of 27 friends to give a one-time gift of $500 or a monthly pledge of $41.67 for 12 months? Or could you be one of 14 friends to give a one-time gift of $1,000 or a monthly pledge of $83.34? To put your potential donation into perspective, think about how much you spend on your monthly cable bill or your monthly phone bill or eating out at restaurant. When you think about it that way, finding 27 friends to pledge $41.67 a month or 14 friends to pledge $83.34 a month seems pretty doable!

The hiatus for the rebooted 3WHH is over! We got the band back together, and to further paraphrase the political philosophy of the Ellwood brothers, it's 70 minutes to the end of this podcast, we've got a full glass of whisky, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses. Just like Anthony Fauci in his glam cover shot for In Style magazine back in 2021.Most of our changes are cosmetic, and it it still a work-in-progress, but the two main new features on display this week is a short "cameo" appearance from a slate of contributors we're signing up, and responding to the best reader/listener question. This week's cameo is from Alex Priou of the University of Austin, who has some definite opinions about The Odyssey. Two main topics are on our mind this week: the mendacious Dr. Fauci, and what pathways for legal redress might still be open despite President Biden's pardon. Second, we spend some time discussing the "republican guarantee clause" of Article IV of the Constitution, which is usually overlooked, and thought to be non-justiciable, if not in fact a nullity, similar to the 9th Amendment. We take up this question because of Glenn Reynolds' mischievous suggestion on his Substack that President Trump might be able to invoke the clause to justify sending federal authorities into states with high potential for vote fraud. Here's the key passage from Glenn's article:"So if President Trump announces that we have uncovered massive electoral fraud — as he almost certainly will — and that he is dispatching huge numbers of federal election watchers to oversee voting and counting in areas where fraud has occurred, he would be acting directly under a power that the Constitution has vested in him. For a state to have a “republican form of government,” it must have meaningful elections, and elections that are rigged are not meaningful. Stopping them from being rigged would be protecting a republican form of government. Congress has passed other election laws, mostly for reasons of combating race discrimination, but those aren't strictly applicable to these circumstances. . ."Could make for some fun times!
Mark explains in more detail what was written in Dr. Anthony Fauci's journal. Fauci pleaded the Fifth Amendment 111 times yesterday when grilled by senators on Capitol Hill about whether he misled Congress, Wuhan lab research, and more. Senator Josh Hawley was among those who questioned Dr. Fauci extensively about his decision to invoke the Fifth Amendment when asked numerous questions. Was Anthony Fauci profiting from the pandemic throughout 2020? Mark explains. Fauci was also on the cover of InStyle magazine, which raises questions about his performance.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jimmy sounds off on Dr. Anthony Fauci's testimony on Capitol Hill about the pandemic yesterday and the takeaways from it. The guys make fun of what's in his diary, which is very interesting.

If you've ever felt confused, frustrated, or completely unprepared for perimenopause and menopause, you're not alone. For generations, women have been expected to navigate this major life transition with little information, limited support, and far too many unanswered questions.In this empowering episode of the V.I.B.E. Living Podcast, Lynnis Woods-Mullins sits down with Michelle Jacobs, co-founder of Womaness, to have an honest conversation about menopause, perimenopause symptoms, hormone therapy, and what women really need to thrive during midlife.Michelle shares her journey from leading product innovation for major consumer brands to co-founding Womaness, a company dedicated to helping women navigate menopause with confidence and clarity. Together, we explore some of the most common symptoms women experience, including hot flashes, night sweats, brain fog, sleep disruptions, weight changes, skin and hair concerns, vaginal dryness, and shifts in libido.We also discuss the growing conversation around hormone replacement therapy (HRT), why menopause education has historically been overlooked, and how changing medical guidance is empowering more women to advocate for themselves and seek answers that support their unique needs.Beyond symptoms and solutions, this conversation dives into the emotional side of aging. We explore how cultural messages about youth impact women's confidence, why community matters, and how simple daily practices like movement, curiosity, gratitude, and self-care can help women feel vibrant, strong, and empowered in every stage of life.Whether you're just beginning to notice changes or are well into your menopause journey, this episode offers practical insights, encouragement, and a refreshing reminder that menopause is not something to endure—it's a transition that can be navigated with knowledge, support, and confidence.If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a friend who could use a little more menopause support on her journey.BioCOO Michelle Jacobs and Co-Founder of Womaness, envisioned a world where 50 million women entering menopause had a place to go for education, inspiration, and real solutions. With a background in strategic development and brand building, Michelle worked for iconic brands like Polo Ralph Lauren and Lancôme before transitioning to the publishing world where she launched and developed retail business for Real Simple, Cooking Light and InStyle magazines with retail partners like Target, Bed Bath & Beyond, and Crate & Barrel. She then handled the Joy Manganao brand (yes, that Joy Mangano) who introduced the world to the Miracle Mop and Huggable Hangers. Many years and many brands later, the entrepreneurial urge hit, and Michelle knew it was time to establish a business of her own.

What happens when you realize the life you built no longer fits who you're becoming?In this episode of Beyond Should, Lucy sits down with Michelle Jacobs, co-founder and COO of Womaness, to unpack reinvention, women's health, leadership, and the cultural narratives women inherit around aging. From walking away from corporate life to building a company dedicated to women in midlife, Michelle shares what it looked like to stop seeking approval, trust her instincts, and create something entirely new.Together, they explore why so many women feel disconnected from their bodies, the lack of education around perimenopause and menopause, and why midlife can become a powerful season of clarity, confidence, and reinvention. They also discuss women and risk-taking, investing in women-led businesses, and the importance of taking up more space.More about Michelle: Michelle Jacobs is Co-Founder and COO of Womaness, a brand changing the conversation around aging, midlife, and menopause through clinically and doctor-tested products that address symptoms from hot flashes to sleep to fine lines.

Optimal weight health in menopause isn't about eating less or exercising more—it's about finally understanding what your body has been trying to tell you. If you've been frustrated with stubborn weight gain, low energy, or conflicting advice, this conversation will feel like a reset. We're breaking down the truth about GLP-1, gut health, hormones, and why your results may have stalled despite doing everything “right.” This episode shifts the focus from quick fixes to a personalized strategy that actually works with your body, not against it. Because optimal weight health in menopause starts when you stop guessing and start listening. My Guest: Ashley Koff, RD, is an acclaimed weight-health expert, “Hollywood's Leading Dietitian” featured in InStyle and practitioner for more than 25 years. Koff is leading a transformative movement in personalized nutrition, turning “better, not perfect” choices into practical, sustainable strategies that deliver real outcomes. She is the founder of The Better Nutrition Program (BNP) and author of USA Today bestselling Your Best Shot, which introduces weight-health hormones (GLP-1, GIP, CCK, PYY) as the regulators of weight health, offering the first-ever assessment of their function and a personalized optimization system—shot or not. Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:02:35] What does optimal weight management really mean in menopause? [00:07:39] Are you ahead of your time and getting pushback for your approach? [00:03:17] What are GLP-1 hormones and why do they matter? [00:25:11] Is the fear valid that GLP-1 stops your body from producing its own hormones? [00:29:49] Should we be talking about something more important than muscle loss first? [00:31:21] How does cortisol actually influence weight health in menopause? How can women address the connection between cortisol, GLP-1, and weight? If this episode made you flip your workout routine — share it!
As a mom and practitioner, I see every day how hard it can be to get real, quality nutrition into our kids — and honestly, into ourselves. In this conversation, I sit down with Khirma Eliazov, the founder of Kika Nutrition, to talk about what's really behind picky eating, nutrient deficiencies, and why even the "healthiest" diets can still fall short. What stood out to me most is how much this comes back to the basics: absorption, gut health, and consistency. We talk about how most families are doing their best, but our food supply simply isn't as nutrient-dense as it used to be. That's where smart, simple solutions can make a real difference. I also share my own experience trying Kika at home and how easy it is to incorporate into everyday foods without adding stress to your routine. If you've ever felt overwhelmed trying to nourish your family well, this episode will meet you right where you are. Key Takeaways from this Episode: Why picky eating is more common than you think How gut health impacts immunity and nutrient absorption The hidden gaps in even a healthy diet Simple ways to add protein and nutrients into daily routines About Khirma: Khirma Eliazov is the founder and CEO of Kika Nutrition, a female-founded family wellness brand redefining how modern households nourish themselves. After five years of formulation work with functional medicine experts, doctors and third-party testing, Kika launched in November 2025 — and is quickly becoming a trusted daily staple for parents seeking real nutrition without complexity. Kika brings together every chapter of her career: brand-building, product innovation, community connection, and a deep belief that everyday wellness should be accessible, thoughtful, and beautifully designed. Before Kika, she spent 15+ years shaping category-defining brands across luxury, media, and lifestyle. She founded Khirma New York, a global accessories brand sold in more than 80 wholesale stores, and built a reputation for craftsmanship, storytelling, and scaling design-driven businesses.

Alongside Kika, she runs Residency Studio, a hybrid creative space and design gallery supporting creators, productions, and immersive brand experiences.

Branded entertainment is having a major comeback, but it doesn't look like the old playbook. In this episode of House of Content, Christine and Janni break down why brands are moving beyond traditional campaigns and starting to think like studios, creating content that audiences would watch even if there were no logo attached.From Starbucks' creator-led New York Fashion Week moments to Airbnb's cinematic storytelling and InStyle's The Intern, the lines between advertising and entertainment are blurring fast. The new benchmark is simple: would you watch it anyway?This episode unpacks the shift from one-off campaigns to always-on formats, why episodic content and behind-the-scenes storytelling are winning, and how brands like Beis are building entire content worlds instead of just running ads. The conversation also explores how creators have fundamentally reshaped audience expectations, making entertainment-first content the new standard across platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube.Plus, the show gets into what actually works in branded content today versus what still flops, and why some brands are now competing less with other advertisers and more with Netflix, creators, and culture itself.If you work in marketing, social media, or the creator economy, this episode breaks down the biggest shift happening right now: the move from campaign thinking to show thinking.What you'll learn:Why branded entertainment is trending again in 2026The shift from campaigns to episodic content and recurring formatsHow creators changed audience expectations for adsWhat makes branded content actually entertaining (and what doesn't)Why brands are starting to act like media companies and studios

AN ENGLISHMAN IN NEW YORK — If you can count yourself among the lucky ones who've met Robert Priest in person, any chance you remember what you were wearing? Well, fear not: He does. According to his business partner, the designer Grace Lee, Priest possesses a near-photographic memory of how people present themselves. And those first impressions last a lifetime. To hear him talk, though, it's not at all about being judgy. Priest is just naturally consumed with all things visual. He has been since childhood. (He gets it from his mother). To him, design is everything. Priest has dedicated his 50-plus-year career to the relentless pursuit of taste, style, and fashion. And it shows. He has led design teams at all of the big magazines: GQ, House & Garden, InStyle, Newsweek, and Esquire (Twice!) But there's another side to Robert Priest. He's a huge sports fan. And designing magazines is his sport. Indeed, like a head coach, he's hired to win. And the trophies in this case are readership, advertising, circulation, and buzz—and when that's all taken care of, the design awards start to pile up—they certainly have for him. We talked to Priest about his early days in London, when he—and The Beatles and the Rolling Stones—were just getting started, about why soccer is the real football, and the rise and fall of one of the biggest magazine launches in history, Condé Nast Portfolio. — This episode is made possible by our friends at Commercial Type and Freeport Press.

GLP-1 medications like Ozempic®, Wegovy®, and tirzepatide are dominating headlines—but what if the real breakthrough isn't just the shot, but understanding the body's own weight-health hormones? In this powerful conversation, Dr. Anna Cabeca—triple board-certified OB-GYN and The Girlfriend Doctor—sits down with renowned dietitian and personalized nutrition pioneer Ashley Koff, RD, to unpack the science behind GLP-1, the deeper root causes of metabolic dysfunction, and how we can activate the body's natural appetite-regulating hormones. Together they explore why weight health is about far more than calories or willpower. Ashley shares her personal journey into functional nutrition, the hidden hormonal ecosystem behind appetite and metabolism, and how digestion, gut health, and lifestyle choices influence the hormones that regulate cravings, satiety, inflammation, and metabolic balance. Ashley also introduces the framework from her new book Your Best Shot: The Personalized System for Optimal Weight Health—GLP-1 Shot or Not, revealing why sustainable health comes from personalized strategies—not quick fixes. If you've wondered whether GLP-1 medications are right for you—or how to support your metabolism naturally—this conversation is packed with practical, empowering insights.

A practitioner for more than 25 years, she is recognized as one of CNN's Top 100 Health Makers and has been called "Hollywood's Leading Dietitian" by InStyle. In This Episode, You'll Learn: • What GLP-1, GIP, PYY, and CCK actually do in the body • Why weight health is an ecosystem—not just calories in vs. calories out • The hidden role of gut health and digestion in appetite hormones • The "Pizza Framework" for building metabolic health foundations • How lifestyle, timing of meals, and microbiome health influence metabolism • When GLP-1 medications may help—and when foundational health must come first • Practical strategies to quiet "food noise" and improve satiety naturally Key Timestamps 00:00 – Welcome to The Girlfriend Doctor Show 01:00 – Why GLP-1 medications are changing the conversation about metabolism 03:00 – Ashley's personal story and turning point in nutrition science 09:30 – The gut, trauma, and the origins of metabolic dysfunction 13:00 – What GLP-1 and other weight-health hormones actually do in the body 20:00 – Why digestion and gut health drive hormone balance 23:40 – The "Pizza Framework" for metabolic health foundations 28:00 – How meal timing affects hormones and metabolism 32:00 – Supplements and microbiome strategies that support GLP-1 naturally 36:00 – Ashley's book Your Best Shot and how to personalize your approach Memorable Quotes 1. Ashley Koff: "Weight health isn't about willpower—it's about physiology. When the body has what it needs, the system works the way it was designed to." 2. Ashley Koff: "There is no one ingredient in the recipe that makes metabolic health work. It's about finding the right recipe for your body." 3. Dr. Anna Cabeca: "We don't just want weight loss—we want weight health: strong, confident, vibrant women living in bodies that feel good." 4. Ashley Koff: "Your digestion is the crust of the pizza. If the crust isn't right, nothing you put on top will work the way it should." 5. Dr. Anna Cabeca: "Willpower is physiologic. When you support your body's metabolism and hormones, your ability to make healthy choices comes back."

Action is where change happens. But here's the thing: when we have a goal, a wish, a desire bubbling up in us, it can feel really huge. Sometimes we stop ourselves in our tracks based on how huge our desire feels. Change needs action, but it doesn't need huge action. When we focus on the next step, the next Doable Change that we can integrate into our lives, we don't get stuck and we create momentum. Choose one Doable Change that resonates with you today and really play with it. Fit it into your life, your days, make it work for you — then move on to your next Doable Change. Here are Three Doable Changes from this conversation: CHOOSE SELF-CARE. Self-care and compassion make such a difference, but sometimes we back off from them because we don't want to disappoint others. Think about the last time somebody modeled self-care and how you reacted. Try an act of self-care yourself.WHO ARE YOU NOW? Where are you getting stuck in old stories? Who are you now? I was once really dogmatic about food. It served me well at the time, but now, not so much. Are the decisions you would have made a decade ago that feel different now? Slow down and look at the boundaries and decisions in your life now. Are you working from an old story?CHECK OUT SKINNY60. I've done this program several times and I keep learning more and adjusting to my now body. Take a few minutes to explore this program to see if it might help you reclaim your health and navigate this stage of life in your body (which, of course affects everything else).
What if getting dressed could actually help you feel better? This week, JVN sits down with Marie Claire Editor-in-Chief Nikki Ogunnaike to talk about dopamine dressing, personal style, and why fashion is so much deeper than just clothes. Together, they get into how to figure out what your style really is, why “everything is fashion,” and how vintage, retail, and finding a good deal can all shape the way we express ourselves.

Kahlana Barfield Brown is the founder of her namesake clothing brand, KBB by Kahlana. Before she became a designer, she was an icon in the editorial world. Her career started at InStyle, where she worked her way up from intern to the publication's first-ever beauty and fashion editor at large. Her work steering the outlet's coverage earned her widespread recognition, including the title of Editor of the Year from Harlem's Fashion Row. She led the outlet for a decade before leaving in 2018 to build her personal brand online in the fashion space. Brown made the leap from reporter to designer in 2022, when Target tapped her to be the first designer for the Future Collective—the company's first-ever creator-led fashion line. After her first collection sold out quickly, Brown decided to partner with the company again to launch her own brand, KBB, exclusively with the chain. Her designs continue to be wildly successful, as Target plans to expand her collection to over 500 locations nationwide this year.

Today, I had the honor of connecting with Ashley Koff. She is a leading voice in personalized nutrition and the founder of the Better Nutrition Program. With over 25 years of experience and the groundbreaking GLP-1 Optimization System to her name, she's helped redefine how we approach sustainable weight health. In our conversation, we dive into how her book reframes the concept of healthy weight. We explore integrative perspectives on digestive health and GLP-1s, why many women blame themselves when they struggle to lose weight, and how Ashley's framework helps them remove that self-blame. We also discuss issues surrounding info-besity and the “less is more” approach, natural ways to support appetite regulation and satiety signaling, key areas of digestive health, and the importance of detoxification. Ashley also shares the red flags she sees in women who are undernourishing themselves or over-fasting, things to consider when you want to stop taking GLP-1s, and her opinions on new drug therapies. Join us for today's thought-provoking and insightful conversation around metabolic health and weight-loss resistance for women in middle age, perimenopause, and menopause. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: The interconnection that exists between digestion, hormones, and metabolic signaling How the hormonal fluctuation that occurs in perimenopause disrupts women's digestion What drives satiety? How GLP-1 medications simply amplify, extend, or mimic an existing communication loop within the body rather than creating new pathways Why do women blame themselves when they cannot lose weight? How info-besity blocks the body from doing what it is naturally designed to do Why detoxification is essential for supporting natural digestive and metabolic processes The red flags that indicate undernourishment or over-fasting in women What you need to think about before stopping GLP-1s Bio: Ashley Koff, RD, is the USA Today bestselling author of Your Best Shot (HarperOne) and founder of The Better Nutrition Program (BNP).

What if the explosion of GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy is not a weight loss revolution, but rather a warning sign that something in our metabolic health is fundamentally broken? Today, we take a deep dive into the lesser-known satiety hormones, such as CCK and PYY, exploring how dysfunction in these hormones could be silently accelerating your aging and sabotaging your health span. I'm excited to welcome Ashley Koff, a registered dietitian with more than 25 years of experience in functional and integrative nutrition, for a two-part series. In Part 1 today, we break down why your satiety hormones may be underperforming, how this links to aging and longevity, and simple strategies you can start using today to support metabolic health naturally. How to support your weight-health hormones: Focus on supporting your digestion first, rather than jumping straight into weight loss or metabolic fixes Ensure you're consuming enough protein and amino acids to support peptide hormone production Reduce gut irritants like alcohol, ultra-processed ingredients, and unnecessary fasting Nourish your body consistently, especially during times of hormonal change, instead of restricting View digestive symptoms as signs of dysfunction instead of problems to push through or ignore Bio: Ashley Koff Ashley Koff is a registered dietician and who is the founder of the Better Nutrition Program (BNP), the nutrition course director for UC Irvine's Susan Samueli Integrative Health Institute's Integrative and Functional Medicine Fellowship, and a faculty member at the Integrative and Functional Nutrition Academy (IFNA), where she teaches “An Integrative and Functional Nutrition Approach to Obesity and Weight Management.” She is also the author of the upcoming book Your Best Shot (HarperOne, Jan. 6, 2026).

In this episode: How separating weight from health leads to unhealthy behavior and long-term metabolic dysfunction Why a balanced approach is essential when using GLP-1 agonists and other interventions The importance of viewing digestive distress as an early warning sign, not a side effect to ignore How short-term diet “wins” can feel hopeful, yet fail to solve the underlying issue How metabolic health data points to a larger issue than most people realize The role weight-regulating hormones play beyond hunger and blood sugar Why supporting your weight health is foundational to your longevity Links and Resources: Guest Social Media Links: Ashley Koff on Instagram The Better Nutrition Program Your Best Shot Relative Links for This Show: Use Code FIBER to get 10% off GLP-1 Fiber Use code CREATINE to get 10% off Creatine Follow Your Longevity Blueprint On Instagram| Facebook| Twitter| YouTube | LinkedIn Get your copy of the Your Longevity Blueprint book and claim your bonuses here Find Dr. Stephanie Gray and Your Longevity Blueprint online Follow Dr. Stephanie Gray On Facebook| Instagram| Youtube | Twitter | LinkedIn Integrative Health and Hormone Clinic Podcast production by Team Podcast

In this podcast, hormone and nutrition expert Ashley Koff joins me to break down the noise and misinformation around GLP-1s, reframing them as one possible tool—not a magic fix—within a much bigger picture of whole-body health.

QUOTES “That means your weight-health hormones are going to be impacted. And let's look at this whole thing systemically– I think there's a lot of ways we can go in this, but one of the things I'm very concerned about is the way that people are being judged.” “I think in that way the biggest answer I would have for you is for us to stop blaming the medication for working the way the medication is supposed to work. And this is where I think the physician and dietician collaboration, comes in and says, actually, these are all the things that we need to experiment with or we need to explore, investigate if this is what your outcome is on the medication.” RELATED EPISODES #621: The Truth About Metabolic Health, Hormones and GLP-1s with Tyna Moore #647: Hormone Optimization Therapy (HOT) Isn't Your Mom's HRT + It's One Of The Best Strategies For Longevity with Dr. Amy Killen #605: Breaking the HRT Confusion: The Truth Behind Hormone Replacement Therapy for Perimenopausal Women with Karen Martel 656: The Dangers Of NOT Prescribing Bioidentical HRT + Migraines, Testosterone and Mitigating Inflammation with Dr. Louise Newson
For anyone who's been fired as f*ck, this episode is for you! We are joined by Laura Brown and Kristina O'Neill, media legends and authors of All the Cool Girls Get Fired, to talk about the painful experience so many of us have experienced. They share their stories of becoming friends, working in media/fashion in NYC in the 2000s, ascending to editors in chief of InStyle and WSJ Magazine, and then being fired from their dream jobs. We discuss how to cope in the immediate aftermath, the importance of telling people and asking for help, and why employers are more empathetic than ever to terminations and resumé gaps. We also talk about networking and leveraging your contacts (even when you're employed), how to figure out your next steps, and why getting fired could end up being the best thing that ever happened to you. Before Laura and Kristina join us, we share our own stories of being fired and how it impacted our lives then and now. Enjoy!
