This week, Emily sits down live at Rivian HQ in New York City with long-time friend of the show, Peloton instructor, and HOKA Global Brand Ambassador Becs Gentry. In front of a live audience, Becs opens up about stepping away from the road-racing spotlight and returning to her trail-running roots as she prepares for two of the biggest, high-altitude, high-heat races of her life. She shares how turning 40 has changed her physical relationship with her body, what diligence looks like while juggling motherhood and a full-time career, and why giving yourself grace to rest is just as important as putting in the miles. IN THIS EPISODE Training for Extreme Heat and Altitude: Becs shares the reality of preparing a sea-level body for thousands of feet of elevation gain in 90+ degree heat while balancing her daily responsibilities. The Return to the Trails: Why returning to trail running after years of elite road racing serves as a mental reset, offering much-needed solitude and peace away from constant visibility. Navigating 40 and Body Changes: Becs candidly reflects on how hitting age 40 made her feel more vulnerable to stress and fatigue, and how she's learning to listen to her body's evolving needs. Redefining Diligence and Grace: How juggling motherhood, partnership, and professional commitments reshaped her definition of success—and why showing up on an "A" level isn't always possible or necessary. A Wild Appalachian Trail Run: The unbelievable story of a solo trail run that included close encounters with a bear, a snake, a snapping turtle, a dog, and a porcupine. Recovery and Unplugging: The daily recovery habits keeping her grounded, including acupuncture, Normatec boots, magnesium, reduced screen time, and getting back into reading fiction. Best Advice for Her Younger Self: The piece of wisdom Becs would offer her 30-year-old self looking back on a decade of growth and career transitions. QUOTABLE MOMENTS "Diligence isn't always about showing up on that 'A' level. Diligence is about showing up for all of the hats and the roles that you have Coast to play in your life, and being okay with that." "When you're juggling, you need to know which balls are glass and which balls are rubber—and allow yourself to know which one is which each day." "The world is tough right now, but there is a chance for all of us to see it as a happy place. We just have to consciously correct our algorithms." "Don't be overconfident, but don't undersell yourself."

The Big Tech companies driving the AI boom are expected to spend more than $700 billion on data center infrastructure this year. To finance this spending spree, they're increasingly looking to debt. Hyperscalers like Alphabet, Oracle, and Meta have been issuing corporate bonds at a scale the industry has never seen — nearly a quarter of a trillion dollars this year so far. The bond market could be considered a less risky way than stocks for investors to get a piece of the AI hype. To explain what the flood of AI debt means for the bond market, we're joined by Julie Ask, an independent industry analyst at Ask Advisory. More on this: “The Quarter-Trillion-Dollar Onslaught of AI Bonds Is Testing Investors' Limits” from the Wall Street Journal “AI has taken over the stock market. The bond market is next.” from The Economist

You run out of energy.You run out of time.You can't do everything at once.And your actions have consequences.That feels normal… until you actually stop and ask why.In this investigation, we test a specific question:Do the limits of reality follow the exactly structure needed for a hidden one?If reality had the architecture of a first-person game, we would expect to see that certain structure leaving clues.So instead of assuming anything, we look at the evidence:Human experience.And ask:Are these random… or part of a deeper system?My links:https://nickzei.com/links

“One of the things that's fascinating about him simply as a historical study is the recognition that shamelessness is a superpower, and he refuses to be shamed in almost any action that he takes. He also realised that he doesn't have to abide by the US system, which is primarily norms and not laws. He is testing them in a way they have never been tested before.” Paddy O'Connell speaks to Maggie Haberman, White House correspondent for The New York Times and co-author of Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump. Maggie gives her take on Trump's second administration, from the influence of Elon Musk to his increasingly fraught dealings with world leaders. She also explains her belief Trump's second presidency is fundamentally different from his first, and how he is testing the limits of presidential power.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.serioustrouble.showThis week: Judge Kathleen Williams' eviscerates President Trump's attorneys for their sham lawsuit that was ultimately used as a pretext to create the “weaponization fund” settlement. Her order is bracing. But what are its practical effects? Is the settlement actually void, including the part that was supposed to protect Trump from future IRS audits? Also: E. Jean Carroll finally got the smaller of her two Trump judgments paid out. And we consider the very aggressive legal theory under which Mahmoud Khalil is suing the people who advocated for him to be deported, and the Trump administration's effort to find out how The New York Times learned about security threats to the president's new Qatari jet.That's this week's free episode. For paying subscribers, we look at the Trump administration's effort to get information about how Boris Epshteyn, its own representative, communicated with law firms that settled in the face of adverse executive orders. Awkward. Plus: a defamation case that should worry New York City Councilwoman Vickie Paladino, at least as regards one of its claims, and we consider a bizarre episode that has Jack Burkman and Jacob Wohl back in the news, pursuing their very own big-boy federal felonies. It involves a rapper named “Boosie Badazz,” whom they charged a large fee in exchange for assistance getting a pardon, and whom they did not in fact get pardoned.Upgrade your subscription now at serioustrouble.show

Can you really overhaul 50 years of money habits — and are the drivers paying the highest prices per gallon actually the ones hurting most from rising gas prices? Host Sean Pyles, CFP© and Elizabeth Ayoola are joined by senior news writer Anna Helhoski and joined by data studies Nerd, Kurt Woock, to unpack why the price on the sign at the gas station doesn't tell the whole story about how gas prices hit your budget. They break down why states like Wyoming, Oklahoma, Montana and Utah saw the biggest jumps in weekly gas spending this year — even though they don't have the highest prices at the pump — and why total spending, not the price per gallon, is what really matters when you're budgeting. Then, Sean and Elizabeth answer a question from a 50-year-old listener named David, who's trying to reset a lifetime of impulse spending and build a real retirement plan on a later timeline. They walk through catch-up contributions for IRAs, 401(k)s and HSAs, why automated savings buckets and an emergency fund matter more than ever at this stage, and how to think through the tradeoffs of claiming Social Security early versus waiting.

July 4, 2026Strength to Strength Sisters welcomed Kristi Mast to discuss the power of a focused life.Most of us understand that our phones are stealing our attention and sometimes even our fruitfulness. But how do we practically master our devices instead of letting them master us, especially when we are drained or looking for escape? Embracing our human limits frees us to employ technology as a tool, rather than something that dehumanizes and distracts. Come talk about practical ways to master the screens in your life.An interactive question-and-answer period follows.Downloadable resource on our website:https://strengthtostrength.org/the-power-of-limits-in-an-age-of-distraction/

This episode is different.Coach Alex sits down with San Qing on The Way for a wide-ranging conversation about exercise science, stress adaptation, mitochondria, fasting, performance, belief, martial arts, and what happens when the body is challenged and forced to grow.But this conversation also moves into territory that many Faithful Fitness listeners may not be used to hearing.Daoism.Eastern medicine.Energy language.Breathwork.Alchemy.Spiritual frameworks that do not come from a Christian worldview.That is why this episode needs to be heard with discernment.There are places in this conversation where Coach Alex and San Qing find common ground. Stress matters. Adaptation matters. Belief matters. Movement matters. The body and mind are deeply connected. The human body is fearfully and wonderfully complex.But there are also places where the worldviews are very different.As Christians, we do not listen to conversations like this with fear or arrogance. We listen with wisdom. We test what we hear. We recognize what is true, reject what is false, and bring every thought captive to Christ.Because Jesus is not one spiritual option among many.He is the way, the truth, and the life.In this episode, Coach Alex brings exercise science and Christian stewardship into a conversation outside the walls of the church. He discusses his work with Everyday Spy, the role of adaptive stress, why movement forces belief into action, how mitochondria respond to challenge, why “1% better” matters, and why the body cannot be separated from the life of faith.Listen carefully.Listen prayerfully.And ask yourself:Where have I absorbed spiritual ideas from the culture around me without testing them against Scripture?The body matters.The mind matters.Belief matters.But Christ is Lord over all of it.Timestamps00:00 – Belief, Genetics, and Performance00:35 – San Qing's Bodybuilding Journey and Daoist Framework04:21 – Coach Alex Reframes Fitness Around DNA and Stewardship06:44 – Myostatin, Genetics, and Natural Muscle Growth07:40 – Everyday Spy, Mission Readiness, and Recovery09:13 – Less Is More: Acute Stress vs. Chronic Stress12:06 – Adaptive Stressors and Epigenetic Potential12:54 – Which Cardio Is Best?

The U.S. and China clashed at the United Nations this week, with each accusing the other of fueling instability in the Persian Gulf. Washington has long argued that Beijing plays a pivotal role in the conflict as the largest buyer of Iranian oil and a supplier of dual-use technologies that could support Tehran's military. Many experts, however, dispute that assessment. They argue that China's ability to influence Iran is far more limited than commonly assumed and that there is little evidence Tehran would bow to Chinese pressure on matters of national security. Nor is there any indication that Beijing is willing to use whatever leverage it may have. Jesse Marks, CEO of the Asia-Middle East consultancy Rihla Research & Advisory and a leading scholar of Chinese diplomacy in the region, joins Eric to explain why Beijing is likely to remain a largely passive player, both as the war continues and in whatever political settlement eventually emerges.

Physicist Jenny Wagner joins us, asking not whether dark matter is possible but whether it is necessary, whether the missing mass was ever missing or only misplaced inside the models we carried in before we looked up. She works the inverse problem of gravitational lensing the way a person works a locked door in the dark, feeling for what the data actually says against what the assumptions quietly whisper, until the cosmological constant, dark energy, and the whole dark sector start to look less like discoveries and more like scaffolding we forgot was scaffolding. From Zwicky and the Coma cluster to MOND and the Bullet cluster, she traces how a pragmatic guess hardened into orthodoxy, and how general relativity alone might carry more of the weight than anyone budgeted for. Cosmology as it should be done, grounded in what the sky gives us and honest about what it withholds.Jenny's blog: https://thegravitygrinch.blogspot.com/PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADOX LOST PRE-SALE: https://buy.stripe.com/7sY7sKdoN5d29eUdYddEs0bHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-herePARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-show00:00 Go!

Transcript:Es: El sol de invierno brillaba sobre el glaciar Perito Moreno, iluminando el hielo azul con un resplandor mágico.En: The winter sun shone over the glaciar Perito Moreno, illuminating the blue ice with a magical glow.Es: El viento frío cortaba como cuchillas mientras silbaba entre los picos de hielo irregulares y las profundas grietas, creadas por el constante movimiento del glaciar.En: The cold wind cut like blades as it whistled between the jagged ice peaks and deep crevasses, created by the glacier's constant movement.Es: Carmelo, con su gorro de lana bien ajustado y una chamarra gruesa que apenas contenía el frío, observaba el impresionante paisaje con una mezcla de emoción y nerviosismo.En: Carmelo, with his wool hat snugly fitted and a thick jacket that barely held back the cold, observed the impressive landscape with a mix of excitement and nervousness.Es: Inés, la guía del grupo, se adelantó con pasos firmes y seguros.En: Inés, the group's guide, stepped forward with firm and confident strides.Es: Amaba el glaciar y respetaba su poder inmenso.En: She loved the glacier and respected its immense power.Es: Era la encargada de asegurarse de que todos estuvieran a salvo durante la caminata.En: She was in charge of ensuring everyone was safe during the walk.Es: Carmelo, que siempre buscaba una aventura, estaba decidido a demostrar su valentía, especialmente ante Inés, la cual admiraba por su conocimiento y amor por la naturaleza.En: Carmelo, who always sought adventure, was determined to prove his bravery, especially in front of Inés, whom he admired for her knowledge and love of nature.Es: El grupo comenzó su caminata por el estrecho sendero de hielo.En: The group began their walk along the narrow ice path.Es: Al principio, Carmelo se mantuvo al frente, decidido a mantener el ritmo.En: Initially, Carmelo stayed at the front, determined to keep up the pace.Es: Sin embargo, a medida que avanzaban, comenzó a sentir un ligero dolor de cabeza y una opresión en el pecho.En: However, as they progressed, he began to feel a slight headache and tightness in his chest.Es: "No es nada", se dijo a sí mismo, deseoso de no parecer débil.En: "It's nothing," he told himself, eager not to appear weak.Es: Pero cada paso se volvía más pesado.En: But each step became heavier.Es: Inés, siempre atenta, no tardó en darse cuenta.En: Inés, always attentive, soon noticed.Es: Observaba a Carmelo con cautela, notando cómo su respiración se volvía más laboriosa.En: She was watching Carmelo cautiously, noticing how his breathing became more labored.Es: Finalmente, cuando llegaron a un punto donde el hielo se elevaba en una formación majestuosa, Carmelo tambaleó peligrosamente cerca del borde.En: Finally, when they reached a point where the ice rose in a majestic formation, Carmelo stumbled dangerously close to the edge.Es: "Inés, estoy bien", dijo Carmelo, tratando de recuperar el aliento.En: "Inés, I'm fine," said Carmelo, trying to catch his breath.Es: Inés sabía que no era así.En: Inés knew that wasn't the case.Es: La altitud y el esfuerzo estaban pasando factura.En: The altitude and exertion were taking their toll.Es: Ella se acercó con calma, poniendo una mano firme en su hombro.En: She approached calmly, placing a firm hand on his shoulder.Es: "Carmelo, escucha a tu cuerpo.En: "Carmelo, listen to your body.Es: Es importante.En: It's important.Es: No queremos que te pase nada", le dijo con voz suave pero decidida.En: We don't want anything to happen to you," she told him with a soft yet determined voice.Es: Carmelo dudó, consciente de su deseo de continuar, pero el instinto de sobrevivencia finalmente prevaleció.En: Carmelo hesitated, aware of his desire to continue, but survival instinct finally prevailed.Es: Con paciencia, Inés lo guió de regreso, sujeta a él para evitar cualquier caída.En: With patience, Inés guided him back, holding onto him to prevent any falls.Es: "Todo lo que la naturaleza nos ofrece es hermoso, pero también tenemos que respetar sus límites", le dijo mientras avanzaban lentamente hacia el campamento base.En: "Everything nature offers us is beautiful, but we also have to respect its limits," she said as they slowly made their way back to base camp.Es: El camino de regreso se sintió largo, pero Carmelo sabía que era lo correcto.En: The return path felt long, but Carmelo knew it was the right thing to do.Es: Una vez en el campamento, mientras se recuperaba con una bebida caliente, Carmelo suspiró, más aliviado que avergonzado.En: Once at the camp, as he recovered with a hot drink, Carmelo sighed, more relieved than embarrassed.Es: "Gracias, Inés.En: "Thank you, Inés.Es: Aprendí algo importante hoy."En: I learned something important today."Es: Inés sonrió, sintiéndose más conectada con su trabajo y con Carmelo.En: Inés smiled, feeling more connected with her work and with Carmelo.Es: "Es un privilegio estar aquí, pero también es una responsabilidad.En: "It's a privilege to be here, but it's also a responsibility.Es: Y parte de esa responsabilidad es cuidar de uno mismo."En: And part of that responsibility is taking care of oneself."Es: En ese momento, Carmelo comprendió.En: At that moment, Carmelo understood.Es: La aventura no se trataba solo de llegar a la cima.En: The adventure wasn't just about reaching the summit.Es: Era sobre conocer y respetar los límites de uno y de la naturaleza.En: It was about knowing and respecting one's limits and those of nature.Es: Y así, bajo el cielo azul del invierno, Carmelo e Inés compartieron una nueva confianza, unidos por la experiencia y el entendimiento mutuos.En: And so, under the blue winter sky, Carmelo and Inés shared a new trust, united by the experience and mutual understanding.

Jase, Al, and Zach confront the political division tearing at America and challenge listeners to examine the way they view people on the other side. Jase takes the Robertson family's most destructive young wrecking ball under his wing, a pairing that seems destined for chaos. The guys explore why faith leaves no room for treating people as lesser and how the gospel dismantles the labels that keep us divided. Jase also brings up the mysterious James Ossuary, an ancient burial box that sparked years of controversy over its possible connection to Jesus' brother.

Dr. Justin Sledge is a scholar of philosophy and Western esotericism, and the voice behind the YouTube channel Esoterica, which has grown to over a million subscribers. He has spent his career studying the traditions that history tried to erase: Gnosticism, Kabbalah, Hermeticism, witchcraft, and alchemy.What We Dive Into:1. Classical skepticism is not about debunking or disbelief. It is about bracketing your personal investment long enough to let the material speak for itself. 2. Newton wrote more on alchemy and the occult than on calculus. Descartes arrived at his famous method through a mystical dream. Stripping these facts from the story of modernity has cost us access to some of the most important spiritual technologies ever developed.3. Every other starting point, certainty, comfort, doctrine, conclusions, has a gutter waiting at the end of it. Awe keeps the garden of curiosity alive.Know Thyself, but not by yourself.

It's often argued that culture is the gateway to politics — that if you can influence cultural values, it will ultimately change society as whole. In the late Sixties, the counterculture was animated by that idea, including Rolling Stone Magazine, which began in the Bay Area. Peter Richardson reflects on Rolling Stone's debt to the counterculture – and the limits to both endeavors. Peter Richardson, Brand New Beat: The Wild Rise of Rolling Stone Magazine UC Press, 2026 The post Rolling Stone and the Limits of the Counterculture appeared first on KPFA.

How to protect backups from ransomware starts with a hard truth: attackers aren't just encrypting your data anymore, they're stealing it first — and no backup system on earth undoes an exfiltration. In this encore episode of The Backup Wrap-Up, Curtis and Prasanna dig into what real immutability looks like versus the marketing version, why root access quietly undermines most "immutable" storage claims, the difference between virtual and true physical air gaps, and the exact questions you should be firing at your backup vendor before you trust them with your last line of defense.This one's an encore for a reason — it was one of the most listened-to episodes in the show's history, with listeners sticking around for the full runtime and then some. That's the kind of signal that tells you it's worth a second run.Along the way, they cover S3 object lock and what actually happens if your account gets deleted or your credit card stops working, why compromised admin credentials are involved in the majority of attacks and what your vendor should be able to undo, and why bit rot — rare, but nasty when it's silent — still belongs on your checklist. If you manage backup or DR for a living, or you're just trying to figure out whether your current setup would actually hold up, this episode gives you a concrete list of questions to ask and red flags to watch for.Chapters:00:00 – Cold Open: Ransomware Is After Your Backups01:19 – Welcome & Banter05:50 – Topic Setup: Protecting Backups from Ransomware07:36 – The Extortion & Exfiltration Playbook15:25 – What Is an Air Gap?18:22 – Virtual Air Gaps27:57 – Real (Physical) Air Gaps28:12 – What Is Immutability, Really?29:23 – Bit Rot30:42 – Root Access & the Limits of Immutability32:51 – S3 Object Lock40:20 – Questions to Ask Your Backup Vendor42:31 – What Happens If You Delete Your Account?44:29 – Compromised Credentials & Worst-Case Scenarios46:41 – Final Thoughts

Today's Cruise News covers three developments spanning health, port policy, and onboard dining. Norovirus sickened 125 people — 102 guests and 23 crew — aboard Princess Cruises' Ruby Princess during an Alaska and Canada voyage from San Francisco; the line rolled out enhanced sanitation as the CDC's Vessel Sanitation Program monitored the response remotely, the line's third CDC-reported outbreak of 2026. In Key West, the City Commission voted 5 to 2 to ask the U.S. Navy to consider cruise-ship limits at the Navy-owned Outer Mole Pier, a non-binding resolution as the current lease nears its August 3 expiration. And MSC Cruises detailed a new pan-Asian street-food venue for MSC World Asia — a three-in-one specialty restaurant, bar, and complimentary daytime spot inspired by Indonesia, Singapore, South China, Thailand, and Vietnam — debuting when the 215,863-GT ship enters Mediterranean service on December 4, 2026.

Proverbs 6:6-11 & 23:4-5 (Rod Hugen)

We live in a culture that celebrates freedom above almost everything else. We treasure our independence, our rights, and our ability to make our own choices. But what if the freedom we've been given as followers of Christ is meant for something far greater than simply doing whatever we want?__________Get more out of today's teaching by visiting our Church Online page for things like our community guide, a weekly devotional, and the teaching slides.

Scripture Reading: Matthew 26:36-44 We can approach our own suffering like Jesus in three ways: 1. Pay attention 2. Surrender 3. Let our humility birth something new

Maggie Haberman, White House correspondent for the New York Times and co-author of "Regime Change," shares some of the inside perspective she has gleaned from her reporting, including Donald Trump's fixation on his own power and how the war he started with Iran has shown him the limits of that power. As a new Washington Post report finds Donald Trump's vanity projects consuming an ever-increasing amount of his attention even as crises at home and abroad would seem to require more of a president's attention, passengers at the Palm Beach Airport did not seem to have their appreciation for Trump improved at all by the airport now being named after him. Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes talks with Jen Psaki about what it means for the upcoming midterm election and U.S. elections broadly that Donald Trump has fired the last members of the bipartisan Election Assistance Committee, an important resource for elections administration.  Juan Proaño, CEO of the League of United Latin American Citizens, talks with Jen Psaki about the family of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo seeking justice for his killing at the hands of ICE. Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows joins to discuss her run for the Democratic nomination to run for Senate in the wake of the implosion of Graham Platner's campaign.

A New Approach to Political Speech: Democratic Theory, Constitutional Law, and Public Liberty After January 6 (de Gruyter, 2026) challenges conventional understandings of political speech and its relationship to democracy. Through a focused case study of Donald Trump's role in attempting to overturn the 2020 election and the prosecutions stemming from it, Erik Olsen develops a critique of the prevailing view that political speech is a private right that is only instrumentally related to political action. He advocates instead for a theoretical framework that treats political speech as a form of communicative action and balances the protection of free expression with the need to safeguard core democratic practices and processes. He thus outlines a more robust First Amendment jurisprudence that can better defend both public liberty and democratic institutions from authoritarian threats in the current era of democratic backsliding. Erik J. Olsen is Professor Emeritus of Political Science at Seattle University. Caleb Zakarin is CEO and Publisher of the New Books Network. Learn more about your ad choices.

Check out the full episode: https://lewishowes.com/podcast/master-your-mind-and-defy-the-odds-with-david-goggins/ David Goggins details pushing past perceived limits, fearing his potential was left untapped. He shares running with broken bones to graduate Navy SEAL training, unlocked by visualizing exceeding expectations despite disadvantages. Goggins avoided self-imposed caps by embracing the mindset “if my mind can conceive it, my body can achieve it.” He details using pain as fuel, wanting to prove even the weakest can become the hardest through mental resilience. Goggins emphasizes flipping weakness into strength using mind games, backed by extreme actions. He refuses to accept excuses that limit potential, believing there is no cap if you leverage the mind's power over the body. Sign up for the Greatness newsletter!
