Podcasts about KP

In this episode, I'm joined by board-certified dermatologist Dr. Dustin Portela to break down the skincare trends, treatments, and products that are dominating social media. We discuss what a simple, effective skincare routine should look like, the truth about peptides, growth factors, exosomes, and collagen supplements, and how to separate evidence based skincare from online hype. We also rate some of today's most viral skincare trends, including beef tallow, red light therapy, NAD, snail mucin, at home microneedling, plasma pens, and salmon DNA facials, while discussing what actually works, what's overhyped, and what may not be worth your time or money. If you've ever wondered whether the latest skincare craze lives up to the claims, this episode is for you. Topics Discussed:  → What does an effective skincare routine actually look like? → Are peptides, growth factors, and exosomes worth the investment? → How do sleep, exercise, and lifestyle habits affect skin aging? → How can you spot misleading skincare advice on social media? → Which viral skincare trends actually work, and which are overhyped?

Air Date: 6/27/2026 Today we trace how one man went from receiving a $278 million government grant to becoming the world's first trillionaire who spent .025% of his wealth to get Trump elected, then used his position to slash programs that help people while stoking race riots overseas.

Air Date: 6–20-2026 Today we explore how political revenge became official government policy. The Department of Justice has dropped fraud cases while opening vindictive investigations into Trump's critics. Judges who rule against him face death threats at home with no federal protection and thousands of DOJ lawyers have walked out the door, leaving the agency hollowed out by loyalty tests and bent toward retribution.

GB2RS News Sunday the 21st of June 2026 The news headlines: The RSGB QSL Bureau issues final notice on the use of the old address The RSGB Intruder Watch team is looking for volunteers Join the RSGB in commemorating the closure of BBC Radio 4's Long Wave service on 198kHz The RSGB QSL Bureau has issued a final notice to those still using the old QSL Bureau address. A new system was introduced in January 2026 and users of the Bureau were advised that all outgoing QSL cards now need to be sent to RSGB QSL Bureau, PO Box 73, 20 St. Loyes Street, Bedford, MK40 1ZL. Anything sent to the old address from Wednesday the 1st of July 2026 will either be returned by Royal Mail, where the address is known, or otherwise is likely to be lost or destroyed. Details of the new RSGB QSL Service can be found at rsgb.org/qsl  The RSGB would also like to remind amateurs with G7 callsigns that the new sub-manager is Anthony Holles, G4AAV. Anthony has many cards waiting to be sent but has received very few stamped addressed envelopes, so please make contact with him if you wish to receive your cards. Contact details for all sub-managers can be found by selecting ‘List of QSL sub-managers' from the right-hand menu on the QSL Bureau web pages. The RSGB Monitoring System, more popularly known as Intruder Watch, is a service that monitors the primary amateur service allocations. The team reports any unauthorised transmissions to the IARU Intruder Watch team and, where appropriate, Ofcom. The RSGB Intruder Watch Coordinator Ian Suart, GM4AUP is looking for volunteers to assist the team with this important service. You would monitor the amateur allocations as required and pass any concerns to Ian. If you'd like to find out more, contact Ian at iw@rsgb.org.uk The RSGB, together with the BBC Amateur Radio Group, will be marking the closure of BBC Radio 4's Long Wave service on 198kHz. The Long Wave transmitting stations at Droitwich in Worcestershire, Westerglen near Stirling in Scotland and Burghead overlooking the Moray Firth also in Scotland, will all be closed down on Saturday the 27th of June 2026.

Using CW on the 6m band, the exchange is signal report, serial number and locator. Now the radio propagation report, compiled by G0KYA, G3YLA and G4BAO on Thursday the 18th of June 2026. We had a quiet week geomagnetically, but the solar flux has also declined. Over the past week, the Kp index never rose above 2 or 3, with only one three-hour excursion to 5 on Thursday the 11th of June. This bodes well for HF propagation, but the solar flux index has declined from its recent high of 148 on Thursday the 4th of June to be in the 110 to 120 range over the past week. As a result, the Sun is looking a little sparse when it comes to sunspots. This, coupled with the summer doldrums, has seen maximum useable frequencies, or MUFs, drop and DX has been limited to 21MHz and below. The 10m band has been mainly open to Sporadic-E, with some multi-hop openings giving the appearance of F2-region propagation at times. DX to be worked over the coming week includes: D44EC from Cape Verde; PJ2/PH2M from Curacao; 3G0YM on Easter Island; FS/K9EL operating from St Martin; 5R8EC from Madagascar; and OX3LX working from Greenland. Next week, NOAA predicts that the solar flux index may increase slightly to be in the 130 to 140 range, although this will need some new additional sunspots. Geomagnetic conditions are forecast to be quiet with a maximum Kp index of 2. We may see a slight upturn on Tuesday the 23rd of June, when the Kp index is predicted to rise to 4, mainly due to an enhanced solar wind. To recap, Summer is a time when paradoxically daytime maximum useable frequencies, or MUFs, tend to be lower than in autumn and winter. However, nighttime MUFs can be higher, with the potential for the 30 and 20m bands to be open all night. ARRL Field Day will run from 1800UTC on Saturday the 27th of June to 2100UTC on Sunday the 28th of June. This may be an opportunity to work some US portable stations who will be very pleased to contact you. And now the VHF and up propagation news from G3YLA and G4BAO The weather models are a bit undecided about how the coming week will evolve. One option is for predominantly high pressure and a chance of some summer tropo, which may persist over the sea, but is limited inland by daytime heating.  Tropo operators should focus on nighttime conditions, unless located right on the coasts. The other weather model suggests that low pressure will probably win out over northern areas and occasionally in the south, so rain scatter may be likely and it would need some heavy thundery showers to get the best results.  High summer is not the best for aurora. The Kp index ideally needs to be at least above 5 before we can get excited. Meteor scatter operators have been making use of the decaying Arietids from earlier in June. The second shower of interest this month is the June Bootids. The window of activity will be from tomorrow, the 22nd, to Thursday the 2nd of July with the peak on Saturday the 27th of June. The Sporadic-E season is progressing with most days offering something from the 10 and 6m bands within Europe. However, there are limited possibilities on the 2m band. As usual, digital modes will be the first to see results, so use the FT8 paths as a guide for the other modes which should follow as the Sporadic-E intensifies. Multi-hop paths do happen regularly but require beams and a lot of luck for several Sporadic-E patches to align. This means the best policy will be listening at the right time. This is in the morning for the paths to the Far East and in the evening for those to the States and Caribbean. EME now and Moon declination is decreasing again, going negative today, the 21st, with path losses rising now the Moon is past perigee. This means shortening Moon windows and lower peak Moon elevation as the week progresses. 144MHz sky temperature is low, rising to moderate by Friday the 26th of June. And that's all from the propagation team this week.

Air Date: 6/17/2026 Today we trace a pattern that repeated across half a dozen states this primary season: working-class candidates running on the cost of living beat the opponents party leadership hand-picked and funded. It looks like ordinary election news, but it's more pieces of a larger shift already underway; away from a politics of left against right and toward a new era of the elite vs working people.

What do a kitchen porter, a Swedish adventure, a hotel fire, a freezing swimming pool, and the CEO of one of Britain's most iconic hotel groups have in common?This week's guest is John Badley, CEO of Andrew Brownsword Hotels.Today, John oversees a collection of some of the UK's most beautiful and historic hotels.But his story starts somewhere much humbler.A teenage job sweeping a car park for £10, a desperate desire to escape the cold, and a sister who eventually gave in and let him become a kitchen porter.The rest, as they say, is history.In this episode we chat about:

Today's episode covers six stories spanning cosmic mysteries, lunar exploration, robotic rescue missions, cutting-edge space medicine, and what's happening in your own night sky tonight.   1. JWST Solves the "Little Red Dots" Mystery Four years after the James Webb Space Telescope began spotting strange, compact red objects in the ancient universe, scientists have a definitive answer. A team led by Vasily Kokorev at the University of Texas at Austin published the most detailed spectrum ever obtained of one of these objects — GLIMPSE-17775 — in The Astrophysical Journal on June 10. The data confirms these objects are supermassive black holes in their furious early growth phase, wrapped in dense cocoons of hot gas that disguise them. The universe is not broken — the little red dots were just very well hidden. 2. Astrobotic Unveils Griffin-1 Lunar Lander Pittsburgh-based Astrobotic publicly unveiled its Griffin-1 lunar lander on June 15 at the Moonshot Museum. NASA selected Griffin as the vehicle for its Moon Base II mission. The lander will carry Astrolab's FLIP rover and payloads from multiple nations — including Australia — to the lunar South Pole, targeting launch on a SpaceX Falcon Heavy in late 2026. Griffin-1 heads to JPL for environmental testing this month. 3. Robotic Rescue Mission for NASA's Swift Observatory NASA's 22-year-old Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory is losing altitude fast due to accelerated solar activity. A startup called Katalyst Space Technologies has built a robotic spacecraft — LINK — in under a year, and it's now integrated into a Northrop Grumman Pegasus XL rocket ready for launch from Kwajalein Atoll, Marshall Islands, later this month. If successful, LINK will boost Swift's orbit and extend its life — while pioneering on-orbit servicing capabilities. 4. SpaceX CRS-34 Dragon Departs the ISS NASA's 34th SpaceX commercial resupply mission departed the ISS today, June 16, carrying blood stem cells, bioprinted organ and cartilage tissue, DNA-inspired cancer treatment materials, and cryogenic fuel storage experiment data. Splashdown off California is expected June 17. 5. Tonight's Sky: Moon Meets Three Planets A stunning western sky show is on offer tonight — a crescent Moon appearing between Mercury and Jupiter about an hour after sunset, with brilliant Venus also on display. Mercury reached its greatest eastern elongation on June 15, making this the best time of its current apparition to spot it. Tomorrow evening the Moon drifts to sit beside Venus. 6. Space Weather: CME Glancing Blow A coronal mass ejection from June 12 is expected to deliver a glancing blow to Earth on June 16-17. Active geomagnetic conditions (Kp up to 4) are forecast, with a chance of minor G1 storm conditions. High-latitude aurora watchers in the Southern Hemisphere may see some activity.   Links & Further Reading • GLIMPSE-17775 study — The Astrophysical Journal (June 10, 2026) • Astrobotic Griffin-1 mission info: astrobotic.com • NASA Swift Boost mission: science.nasa.gov/mission/swift/swift-boost-mission • ISS research blog: nasa.gov/blogs/spacestation • Space weather: spaceweather.gov | NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center   Find us at astronomydaily.io  |  Follow: @AstroDailyPodBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/astronomy-daily-space-news-updates--5648921/support.Sponsor Details:Ensure your online privacy by using NordVPN.

What if the thing limiting AI growth isn't chips or power, but wastewater treatment capacity?In this episode of KP Unpacked, KP Reddy and Nick unpack why water infrastructure is the next bottleneck. Jacobs has a $22.7B backlog weighted toward water. AECOM intends to double its water business in three years. Stantec's water practice is its single largest vertical. Meta just built a $70M wastewater plant in Idaho. TSMC broke ground on a 15-acre water reclamation facility in Phoenix targeting 90% recycling. The CHIPS Act, EV gigafactories, and hyperscaler water-positive commitments are pulling wastewater treatment capacity onto private campuses at a scale AEC hasn't seen since the petrochemical buildout of the 70s.KP and Nick reveal Shadow's bet in the space: Western Chemicals, which uses duckweed (a plant that doubles in size every 24 hours) grown on wastewater to filter nitrogen and phosphorus while producing ethanol fuel. The insight? Wastewater treatment consumes 2% of global electricity using heavy machinery to do what biology does for free. Then they pivot to why big ideas need big capital (raising $1M for pre-con AI versus $100M for modular wastewater plants), why college grads complaining about no job offers have recency bias ($250K signing bonuses for 22-year-olds was never normal), and why skepticism from engineering firm LPs is actually an anti-signal Shadow should lean into.Key questions answered:Why is water the next infrastructure constraint after data centers and power?What's Shadow's water infrastructure bet, and what is duckweed?How does duckweed double in size every 24 hours and filter wastewater for free?Why does wastewater treatment consume 2% of global electricity?Why are private companies building their own wastewater plants now?Should founders raise $1M seed rounds or $100M for big infrastructure ideas?Is the college grad job crisis real, or just recency bias from the 2010s?Why is skepticism from engineering LP firms an anti-signal for Shadow?What's the difference between alpha (non-consensus bets) and beta (consensus with upside)?How does Founders Fund operate with only 4 partners managing billions?What happened with the Vinod Khosla/Cloudflare co-founder drama?Why do co-founder breakups kill more startups than bad products?If you're wondering where infrastructure investment flows after data centers, trying to understand why wastewater suddenly matters, or deciding whether to raise incrementally or swing for $100M on a big idea, this episode will show you why the next constraint is already visible, and capital is moving faster than you think.Listen now.

Air Date: 6/10/2026 Today we explore how Taiwan's own people are stuck between the US and China. Fewer and fewer of them want to rejoin China but their faith in America is sinking just as fast as Trump treats them as a bargaining chip. Their own leaders are split on how to respond. And the place that makes most of the world's advanced chips has almost no seat at the table where its future is being decided. Full Show Notes Transcript Be part of the show!

What if the next five years of your career isn't defined by which AI you use, but by who you're working with?In this episode of KP Unpacked, KP Reddy and Nick unpack the quiet revolution happening in management consulting. OpenAI just launched a deployment company and acquired a consulting firm. Anthropic is backing enterprise AI consultancies. PE firms are partnering with AI-enabled consultants and offering equity instead of hourly fees. The result? Three tiers of value capture emerging: billable hours (worst talent), risk-based fees (middle tier), and equity models (where the best people go). If you're still getting paid by the hour to do AI transformation work, you're in the bottom tier.But the deeper insight is about career trajectory. KP argues the next five years aren't defined by how good your Claude skills are. They're defined by who you're sitting next to. Are you in a firm where Opus 4.8 launching makes everyone's Slack light up with memes and excitement? Or are you somewhere people still think AI is a threat? The gap between those two environments is the gap between relevance and obsolescence. The conversation also unpacks skills files as potentially employee-owned IP (not company-owned), why structural engineers still double-check software calculations in Excel despite working for billion-dollar firms, and why Zero's training program spends two-thirds of its time on mental models and thinking frameworks, not AI mechanics.Key questions answered:Why are OpenAI and Anthropic launching consulting practices and partnering with PE firms?What are the three tiers of value capture in AI consulting (billable hours, risk fees, equity)?Where does the best consulting talent go: hourly billing or equity models?Do you own your skills files, or does your company?Should companies make employees sign IP agreements for marketing coordinators building AI workflows?Why do structural engineers still double-check software calculations in Excel?What's Zero's training curriculum focused on: AI tools or thinking frameworks?Why does ambition and optimism matter more than technical AI skill?How should you choose between working at a forward-leaning AI firm versus a traditional one?What happens when Opus 4.8 launches: does your team's Slack light up or stay silent?Why would you sell a $250M/year AI consulting firm when you're banking $50M annually?What's Ramp tracking now: token spend by industry?If you're deciding between firms based on AI adoption, wondering whether your skills files are actually your IP, or trying to figure out whether billable hours still work in an AI-enabled consulting world, this episode will make you realize the technology matters less than the ambition and optimism of the people around you.Listen now.

Air Date: 5–30-2026 Today we examine how Trump turned a sham lawsuit into a $1.8 billion reward fund for his political allies who attacked the Capitol on January 6th while implementing a counterterrorism strategy that erases right-wing extremism from the threat landscape, refocuses on left-wing violence that hardly exists and threatens to "find and kill" those they deem enemies.

In this episode, Dr. Rob Assibey and Dr. Cynthia Chen-Joea are joined by Family Medicine Revolution legends Dr. Jay W. Lee and Dr. Rachel Friedman. Dr. Friedman was one of two Santa Rosa family medicine residents (along with Dr. Nicole Mohlman) who were fed up with the academic establishment's attitude toward family medicine, and began to draw up plans to make family medicine a force in healthcare. From the Family Medicine T-shirt Revolution, to the social media storm that Dr. Lee championed with #FMRevolution, you'll hear the legends themselves talk about the origin story of this incredible movement and why it's important to carry, and pass on, that torch! Guests: Jay W. Lee, MD, MPH is a family physician leader and public health advocate who co-founded the FMRevolution hashtag – a grassroots movement reclaiming the power, purpose, and future of Family Medicine. He is a passionate voice for primary care justice, physician workforce renewal, and training the next generation to lead boldly, speak truth, and rebuild a health system rooted in relationships, equity, and community. Rachel Friedman, MD is a family physician in Santa Rosa and sees herself as a "whole person-ologist"-- a specialist not just in one particular organ system, but in the way all of the elements in a person's body, mind, heredity, and environment interact to create health/disease. She moved to Santa Rosa in 2008 to complete family medicine residency, with an additional fellowship in Integrative Medicine, and fell in love with this area. In 2012, she joined KP Santa Rosa as both a full-scope family physician and founding faculty of a new KP family medicine residency. She recently became Program Director of the training program, a leadership role that allows her to continue seeing patients and teaching, while pursuing her passions for whole person, patient-centered healthcare, equity/inclusion, and healthcare transformation/innovation.

This week on The Dr. Youn Show, Dr. Anthony Youn is joined by dermatologist Dr. Emily Levin for a special “Ask the Dermatologist” episode, answering real listener questions about the most common, and most frustrating, skin concerns people deal with every day.  They break down everything from seborrheic dermatitis, cystic acne, rosacea, melasma, keloids, KP (“chicken skin”), stretch marks, and spider veins to GLP-1 related skin changes, hair loss, sunscreen, Korean skincare, and whether red light therapy can worsen melasma. They also discuss Accutane myths, the truth about collagen loss during weight loss, scar treatments that actually work, and why some viral skincare trends may be doing more harm than good. Plus, Dr. Levin shares her honest thoughts on cosmetic treatments, laser therapy, pregnancy-related skin changes, eczema triggers, and the biggest misconceptions people have about dermatology and anti-aging.

Air Date: 5–9-2026 Today we examine how political violence has always been woven into the fabric of American life and who gets to decide what counts as violence in the first place. We'll hear about presidential assassinations, the assassination of Fred Hampton, the MOVE bombing in Philadelphia, and the long history of state-sanctioned violence. And I'll discuss the only real way to bend the curve back away from endemic violence in the US.  Full show notes Be part of the show!
