I'm delighted to reconnect with my dear friend Ben Azadi today, in honor of his newly revised book, Keto Flex. Ben is a leading authority on metabolic health, an international Keystone speaker, and the New York Times best-selling author of Metabolic Freedom. In today's conversation, we discuss why women fail on keto. We examine how women's menstrual cycles and various life stages influence both the ketogenic diet and intermittent fasting, and the importance of coming out of ketosis and incorporating feast days. We explain what the Randall cycle is, why we need to be finely tuned to it, how to support healthy cortisol regulation, particularly the HPA axis, and tools to determine whether we are balanced within the autonomic nervous system, including heart rate variability, sleep, and whether our glucose and ketones are within range. We also explore the effects of anti-nutrients and elimination diets, and Ben shares his approach for women who feel keto hasn't worked for them, explaining why keto should be viewed as a process rather than a diet. This is, as always, a truly invaluable conversation with my dear friend Ben Azadi. Stay tuned, as we will also be offering giveaways to listeners of Ben's new book, Keto Flex. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: Various factors that could influence how women respond to a ketogenic diet How women need to adjust keto and fasting according to their menstrual cycle, perimenopause, and postmenopausal years, rather than continuously following the same approach Why Ben encourages women to have intentional feast days instead of remaining in ketosis indefinitely What a feast day looks like, and how it differs from a cheat day Why fasting should be adapted to how well your body tolerates stress Factors that can help to determine whether fasting is working for you Why you should adjust your training intensity and focus more on recovery as you get older How a temporary carnivore elimination diet can help identify foods your body doesn't tolerate Why Ben views keto as a metabolic process rather than a diet, and why he prioritizes lifestyle before medication Bio: Ben Azadi Ben Azadi, FDN-P, is a leading authority on metabolic health, an international keynote speaker, and the New York Times bestselling author of Metabolic Freedom. After facing his own health challenges, Ben transformed his life in 2008—losing 80 pounds and stepping into metabolic freedom. That turning point sparked a global mission: to help 1 billion people break free from physical and mental obesity through education, not medication. With 18+ years in the health and wellness space, Ben is now leading a bold 10-year initiative to naturally reverse type 2 diabetes in 1 million people. Through his work, Ben has reached millions worldwide and personally coached thousands to reclaim their health. His audience includes nearly 3M+ on digital platforms, more than 1M YouTube subscribers with over 100M views, and his top-ranked podcast, The Ben Azadi Show, which has surpassed 100 million downloads.

Howdy there friends! This week, I'm psyched to bring on the great Timothy Renner! This has been a long time coming for me - I've referenced his work so many times on the show, and I'm just a huge fan of him and his incredible work. On this meeting, we discuss his new book THE KEYSTONE HAGSTONE, and folks, this book is a banger! Holy smokes I just could not have loved it anymore. If faeries, gnomes, witches (and so much more) are your thing (it's definitely mine!) then this is the episode for you. I had an absolute blast with my new buddy...I have a feeling we will do this again. I could talk with him for hours. Thanks, and enjoy this episode!Love, Steve For more Timothy Renner:https://www.strangefamiliars.com/https://www.etsy.com/listing/4509315790/the-keystone-hagstone-faeries-and-otherhttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B0H2LTDCDB?lv=shuf&channelId=500&plpRedirect=mhFallbackSteve Berg LInks:https://www.patreon.com/HiStrangenesslinktr.ee/stevebergWebsite: https://www.histrangenesspod.com/Web design: Sonia LenardonPretty please subscribe and leave a review!

Why do so many of us walk away from a great sermon or podcast fired up to change... only to fall back into old patterns a week later? In this episode, we explore the critical difference between trying and training—and why most spiritual growth advice sets people up to fail. This conversation continues our monthly conversation between Dr. Carol, Avery Montgomery, and Zion Montgomery as we draw on insights from the ancient practice of a "Rule of Life," and unpack what it actually looks like to build sustainable, daily habits that reshape what we love, not just what we know. What You'll Learn: Why "trying harder" doesn't work. Trying is often isolated, outcome-focused, and disconnected from daily practice—which is why it leads to discouragement instead of lasting change. The Spectator Trap. Constantly consuming sermons, books, and podcasts can feel like growth, but without active engagement, it just makes us better-informed spectators of our own lives. What training actually requires. Unlike trying, training is a process: daily engagement, repetition, and drills that compound over time. Effort vs. earning. God isn't opposed to effort—He's opposed to earning. Training is effort offered in response to grace, not a transaction to secure it. The trellis metaphor. The word "rule" (from the Latin regula) means trellis—a structure that supports growth and protects against disease, not a rigid cage that restricts it. Points of return, not boxes to check. A healthy rule of life centers on rhythms—Sabbath, prayer, community—not a finish line to cross. How to start your own audit. Practical first steps for evaluating your emotional, physical, and relational life to find the gap between who you are and who you want to become. Keystone habits. How one small, well-placed habit (a prayer rhythm, a no-phone rule) can trigger transformation across every other area of life. Real-life examples. Weekly couple's meetings, family dinner rhythms, intentional rest and "interstitial time," and the balance of solitude and community. For more: Follow @averymont and @ztmont on Instagram.

Hello, Voices of the Bench community. This is Casey Baldwin with Ivoclar. If you've been curious about fast-firing zirconia to improve efficiency but aren't convinced it can deliver predictable, high-quality results, I'd encourage you to connect with us. Our new IPS emax Zirconia, offers multiple fast-fire protocols designed to help you save valuable production time while maintaining consistent outcomes. Time is money in every lab. Don't wait. Reach out today and discover how IPS emax Zirconia can help streamline your workflow. As full-arch dentistry continues to grow, so do the demands on today's dental laboratories. That's why Knight Dental recently launched SimplyARCH Studio, a dedicated production environment built exclusively for full-arch restorations. To support this specialized workflow, Knight invested in an XTCERA milling system and carefully evaluated multiple CAM software solutions before choosing hyperDENT. The decision came down to exceptional milling quality, minimal hand finishing, and impressive production efficiency. But what truly set hyperDENT apart was the implementation process. From the very beginning, the team provided more than software training—they shared the knowledge and experience needed to build an optimized workflow for complex full-arch cases. With proven expertise in advanced milling strategies and laboratory production, hyperDENT helped ensure SimplyARCH Studio was designed for long-term success from day one. This week we finally get to sit down with someone we've been talking about ever since meeting him at exocad Insights in Spain—Felix Chung from Imagine USA. What starts as the story of a kid who dreamed of becoming an astronaut quickly turns into one of the most fascinating journeys in digital dentistry. From researching zero gravity at NASA to trimming models in his uncle's dental lab (a job he absolutely hated), Felix shares how an aerospace engineering degree unexpectedly became the perfect foundation for helping shape the digital lab industry. Felix takes us through the early days of Imagine, back when it was known as iMilling, explaining how a brand-new 3Shape scanner, a lot of late-night research, and a willingness to take risks led him to become one of the pioneers of custom implant abutments and titanium bars. He opens up about betting everything on a quarter-million-dollar milling machine that barely worked, buying his uncle out of the business, and how meeting Jordan Greenberg completely changed the trajectory of the company. It's a story full of huge risks, bigger lessons, and the determination it takes to build something from the ground up. The conversation dives deep into the evolution of digital dentistry as Felix explains how Imagine expanded from a milling center into one of the industry's leading providers of CAD/CAM solutions, Exocad, HyperDENT, scanners, mills, and technical support. He shares why hiring great people has always been more important than selling great products, how the industry has shifted between outsourcing and in-house production over the last fifteen years, and why supporting laboratories through every technological change remains the company's biggest priority. We also spend plenty of time talking implants as Felix tells the incredible story behind the Mist implant component line, how a relationship with the United States Navy helped launch the brand, and how partnerships with companies like Keystone and SIC are helping bring better, more affordable restorative solutions to laboratories. Along the way, we discuss OEM versus compatible components, the ever-changing implant landscape, and what's next for Imagine—including new implant systems and a patent-pending angled custom abutment solution that could change how labs manufacture restorations in-house. If you enjoy hearing how innovation, perseverance, and a little bit of luck can transform an entire career, this is an episode you won't want to miss.Special Guest: Felix Chung.

Since its founding in 1975 by Robert Craig, an extraordinary mountaineer and policymaker, the Keystone Policy Center has been empowering leaders to overcome national and local policy conflicts they previously thought were insurmountable. The nonprofit center mediates and facilitates dialog -- "it's the Keystone way" -- on agriculture, environment, energy, education, and public health issues. Christine Scanlan, Keystone president and CEO, and Ernest House, Jr., senior policy director. and director of Tribal and Indigenous Engagement, speak with Host Llewellyn King and Co-Host Adam Clayton Powell III.
In November 1978, what began as a routine closing shift at a Burger Chef restaurant in Speedway, Indiana, ended in one of the nation's most haunting unsolved murder cases. Four young employees—Jayne Friedt, Ruth Shelton, Daniel Davis, and Mark Flemmonds—vanished without a trace, only to be found murdered two days later in a wooded area miles away. Despite decades of investigations, false confessions, and countless theories, no one has ever been convicted. In this episode, we examine the timeline, the investigative mistakes that may have cost the case its best chance at justice, and why the Burger Chef murders continue to captivate true crime investigators nearly 50 years later.

Folklore was never simply entertainment. These stories survived because they carried wisdom. They were maps of the human experience guiding us through grief, transformation, initiation, love, loss, power and becoming. This month we will step inside those stories and discover what they still have to teach us. https://patreon.com/TheHedgeandHollow?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink For PR, Media, general enquiries please email me at carly@thewhitewitchcompany.co.uk Find me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thewhitewitchpodcast/?hl=en-gb Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode she sits down with two of the most influential voices for women in watches, Georgia Benjamin and Courtney Bachrach, to talk about how they got into collecting, why design and storytelling matter, and where women's vintage watch collecting is heading next.Courtney Bachrach (@tinywristcheck) is a New York-based collector, consultant, and content creator who was introduced to watches by her collector father. With a background in strategic business development across luxury brands and a master's degree in art business, she champions what she calls "literate luxury": understanding not just the watch itself, but the cultural context that produced it. Georgia Benjamin (@georgiabenj) is the most followed female content creator in the watch space, a design leader at Adobe, who brings humor, joy, and a design-led eye to collecting through her platform, her Substack The Edit, and the GB Supper Club.Along the way, Tania traces Patek Philippe's advertising through the decades, from the Art Deco cocktail watches and concealed dials of the 1940s, to the jeweled suites of the disco-era 1970s, to the campaigns that changed everything: "Begin your own tradition," the famous "You never actually own a Patek Philippe, you merely take care of it for the next generation," and finally the steel Twenty~4, the watch priced and designed to encourage women to buy for themselves, with its tagline "Who will you be in the next 24 hours."And there's a surprise: an extraordinary collection of 1970s Patek Philippe ladies' jeweled watches, kindly lent by Justin Gruenberg of The Keystone (@the_keystone), including a museum-quality concealed dial and a complete jeweled set of a kind rarely seen outside the Patek Philippe Museum.Whether you're new to collecting or deep in the hunt, this is a conversation about passion, scholarship, and the joy of discovery.Follow our guests: Courtney Bachrach https://www.instagram.com/tinywristcheck/Georgia Benjamin https://www.instagram.com/georgiabenj/

Their stories are as rich and uncanny as any found here in the West Country.We talk about the Eternal Hunter, the goblin‑like bouts, and the curious parallels between Pennsylvania's fairy lore and thestories of my own southwest England. Tim also speaks about dousing, the art of gifting to the fae, and the strange synchronicities that seem to follow him through his research.This is an episode for anyone who senses that theworld is stranger—and more enchanted—than it first appears.This is The Keystone Hagstone, Part 1 - because Tim will return for an upcoming episode!Order Timothy's new book, The Keystone Hagstone: Faeries and Other Mysterious Entities of Pennsylvaniahere: https://lostgrave.etsy.com/listing/4509315790https://www.strangefamiliars.com/The Heart of Pixieland: West-CountryFaeries & Their Haunts - Releasedate 13th July!KindlePre-order Early Bird Offer available until 1st Julyhttps://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0H4R4LJYQ?binding=kindle_edition&ref=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_pc_tkinWhat the Fairy Podcast – Fairy Stoneshttps://thefairywhispering.com/2025/10/28/ep-3-fairy-stones-what-the-fairy/
Peter breaks down the latest SecondFi incident updates, why the issue was not a Cardano protocol hack, what affected users should avoid doing, how the white-hat recovery appears to have protected most funds, and why hardware wallets matter.Key Takeaways:- SecondFi says the security risk is at the address level and affected users should not restore their recovery phrase into another Cardano wallet.- The incident appears tied to vulnerable wallet key generation rather than a Cardano protocol-level hack.- SecondFi reported that external threat actors drained about 16 million ADA, while emergency white-hat measures secured about 129 million ADA for affected wallets.- Users should rely on official SecondFi support updates and be alert for scammers impersonating support during the recovery process.- Peter explains why hardware wallets such as Keystone, Ledger, and Tangem reduce signing and seed-phrase exposure risks.- The episode also covers positive ecosystem updates including the Leios Musashi Dojo testnet and RealFi progress.Links & References:Ignore the FUDhttps://link.learncardano.io/5Urg79Cardano Wasn't Hackedhttps://link.learncardano.io/IvXvSdSecondFi Providing Clarityhttps://link.learncardano.io/0yU82mPhil's commentshttps://link.learncardano.io/xYHJ9TMax Explains vulnerabilityhttps://link.learncardano.io/aV0RHFSecondFi Explains the Whitehat Situationhttps://link.learncardano.io/253neTGiovani and Paul distils their messagehttps://link.learncardano.io/LpEFlUhttps://link.learncardano.io/0h3srNItsDave's hack visualisationhttps://link.learncardano.io/4GSHsRSeba confirmshttps://link.learncardano.io/hcqwWYLeios Musashi Dojo is Livehttps://link.learncardano.io/waRG02RealFi is cominghttps://link.learncardano.io/dg75nSWebsite: https://learncardano.ioX/Twitter: https://x.com/LearnCardanoDisclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only.

Alaska is a land brimming with natural resources, including gold, silver, copper, coal, oil, salmon, and crab. Still, too often, outsiders have plundered these resources, enriching themselves and leaving Alaska and Alaskans with little to show for it. Alaska has had a “boom and bust” economy since the early 1900s, and no place exemplifies this economy better than Valdez. The aggressive Alaska Syndicate was formed in 1906 with backing from J.P. Morgan and the Guggenheim family, and its initial goal was to mine copper. However, soon the syndicate wanted all Alaska had to offer, including gold, coal, and salmon. It also fought to control rail and sea transportation in Alaska, and with powerful government connections and unlimited funds, it mostly got what it wanted. It needed a railroad to transport copper from its remote Kennecott mines to the ocean, then steamships to ferry it to southern ports. The syndicate chose to construct rail tracks from Kennecott to Cordova, and when rival builders began constructing a railroad from Valdez to Alaska's interior, a violent confrontation erupted, culminating in a shootout in Keystone Canyon.

Riding Shotgun With Charlie #254 Rick Patterson CCRKBA Board Member & Liberty's Keystone It's nice to be able to film a show that isn't too far from home. Rick Patterson is only in Connecticut. He's a board member of the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms. And he owns Liberty's Keystone. We had an interesting conversation about some of the goings on on the international level of firearms. Rick has been involved with the National Shooting Sports Foundation, the CCRKBA, and even the SAAMI. Before all of that, he started off in the oil business. Hoping to be the VP of the company, he was passed over when the spot came open. A family member saw the ad for the NSSF job and he applied. Having the position filled already, he didn't get that job. But with his experience in environmental compliance, business planning, and whatnot, they had a position dealing with shooting ranges and offered that to him. Fortunately, he was a good fit and took this job. While at NSSF, Rick was involved in creating their shooting range program, the 5-star shooting program, the Where To Shoot website. He also worked with the EPA and OSHA on lead management. While the Violence Prevention Center was out trying to shut ranges down with accusations of lead poisoning, his team worked to put together the science behind metallic lead in soils and a management plan. Over the years, ranges were considered successful if they had a good number of members and raised money for their range and cause. But it's important for ranges to have plans to keep the range around for generations. The things Rick's team worked on changed how that was done and how it was developed. Some of the stories Rick shares are about how local towns wanted to stop an indoor range. So the community pushed to have the parking lot be totally covered with double bullet proof protection and entirely covered. The issue with that is it will now be cost prohibitive to have a parking lot that way, thus not being able to build the range since it didn't meet the requirements the town wanted. Of course, there are people that will bring an entire unused cartridge into the police station and say it landed on their property just like that therefore the range must be shut down. The executive director of SAAMI opened up and Rick was able to get that position. At the same time, the UN was getting involved with gun control. Under Rick's leadership, he was able to get NGO status for SAAMI and was able to have some input on topics that concerned firearms. Some of the conversation was about Germany pushing for serialization of ammunition. One German company who had a patent on serialization was pushing for that to happen. But they didn't have to figure out how it's supposed to work, they just declare that it needs to be done. And that will be someone else's problem to figure out the solution. Rick is a very knowledgeable man who has done many things with the groups and the UN. There's two sides to the UN, there's one side dealing with regulations and one that deals with politics. Eventually, the UN realized that even if firearms production ended and no one made another gun, there are going to be millions of them around for a long time. So they need to change their tactic and approach to going after something like ammunition. We talked about the small arms treaty and other things at the international level, shipping regulated materials around the world, and much more. It was a very interesting conversation. There's so much more to what is going on than people know or even realize. We've got someone like Rick on our side, who understands how these things work. And he's worked hard to keep things going for us and our firearms. Favorite quotes: "Sometimes success is just being able to stall it out before you get some draconian law passed." "A successful range is one that's here today, tomorrow, next week, next generation, serving the shooting public." "The countries that are the biggest offenders of the arms deals are not party to it."

Patrick Farrell, co-founder of Keystone Investing, shares how God reshaped his understanding of success, stewardship, and surrender through entrepreneurship, investing, and community. After growing up in a generous household and later chasing performance and achievement, Patrick encountered Jesus in high school and eventually rediscovered a deeper, more relational faith while working at a cybersecurity startup. That season of spiritual renewal planted the seeds for Keystone Investing, a faith-driven investing community helping investors align their capital with Kingdom values. In this conversation, Patrick explains how Keystone creates spaces where investors and founders can pursue both financial excellence and meaningful impact without sacrificing relationships or spiritual formation. He reflects on the dangers of performance-driven stewardship, the importance of wise and thoughtful risk-taking, and why generosity and investing both require surrender to God's lead. Along the way, he offers practical wisdom for discerning where God may be leading your resources and how community can help shape faithful decision-making. Listen to discover how surrendering control of your finances can open the door to deeper joy, discernment, and Kingdom impact. Major Topics Include: Surrendering control of financial stewardship Investing through relationships, not transactions Breaking performance-driven identity patterns Aligning capital with Kingdom convictions Building community around faith-driven investing Pursuing profit alongside Kingdom impact Discerning risk through intimacy with God Practicing generosity from abundance, not fear Integrating faith into business leadership Cultivating wise stewardship through spiritual formation QUOTES TO REMEMBER “The first step on the stewardship journey is recognizing that all of your capital is God's. It all belongs to Him.” “If you start there in that position of surrender, I'm so confident that God will do the rest.” “This entire process of faith-driven investing is all about growing in intimacy with the Lord.” “You can make a ton of money, you can have a ton of impact, but if you're not transformed and the people around you aren't transformed, then that falls short of what I think God's goal was.” “We want to find excellent values-aligned founders building intentional mission-driven businesses that are heading toward sustainability and profitability and growth and scale.” “Faith-driven investing can be excellent. It can be excellent for people, excellent for impact, and excellent financially.” “You don't necessarily have to sacrifice returns in order to see Kingdom impact.” “God is using investing to work on investors.” “God cares about relationships more than really anything else.” “Anything that we set up from a business perspective that deprioritizes relationship tends to fall victim to our sinful nature.” “There are few people within a founder's life that have more access to them than their investors.” “Most of the time, in my experience, God's going to push us into more and greater risk to help us rely on Him.” “The steward buried his talent because he was worried about retribution. And the Master is upset that the steward thought of Him that way.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW Keystone Investing Mark Batterson, Pastor and Author (see our past interview here) Praxis (see our interview with Cofounder Josh Kwan) Bill and Dana Wichterman, Givers and Impact Investors (see our past interview here) Faith Driven Entrepreneur Faith Driven Investor Eventide Sovereigns Capital BIBLE REFERENCES FROM THE SHOW Deuteronomy 6:12 | Only by the Grace of God then take care lest you forget the Lord, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. Matthew 25:14–30 | Parable of the Talents James 2:17 | Faith Without Works So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. TAKE A STEP DEEPER On the Finish Line podcast, we are all about stories, seeing how God draws us into generosity over a lifetime. But sometimes these stories can leave us thinking, “What's that next step look like for me?” That's exactly why we've launched a whole new podcast called Applied Generosity which explores the full landscape of the generous life across 7 different dimensions of generosity. Applied Generosity helps make sense of the hundreds of stories we've shared on the Finish Line Podcast to help you find that best next step. If you've been inspired by these stories and want to take things to the next level, check out Applied Generosity anywhere you listen to podcasts or at appliedgenerosity.com.

Josh Swihart is the founder of ZODL: the Zcash Open Development Lab. Basically a for profit reincarnation of the old Electric Coin Company, which inherited the dev teams and projects. During his previous Bitcoin Takeover podcast appearance in November 2024 (S15 E62), Zcash was a struggling privacy project with very little support and a rather disappointing price action. In June 2026, Zcash is the rising star of the cryptocurrency market, with plans to scale to billions of users and ever-improving shielding technology.
