Send us a textHealthcare innovation has never had more hype or more pressure to deliver real results. With AI accelerating and digital health entering a more mature phase, what does “better” actually look like in practice? Halle Tecco, Author of Massively Better Healthcare joins CareTalk host John Driscoll, Chairman of UConn Health, to discuss what Silicon Valley gets right and wrong about healthcare, why innovators need to align incentives with outcomes, and how leaders should think about AI with clear guardrails instead of buzzwords.
We have another short-form, live YouTube episode today, where I dive into questions from listeners. Recently, the most frequently asked questions have been about cholesterol, likely because I often reference my podcast series with Dr. Tom Dayspring, a renowned lipidologist and menopause expert. Join me today to clear away some more of the confusion surrounding cholesterol. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: Why comprehensive lipid testing rather than standard testing is essential, post-menopause How menopause impacts women's lipid and triglyceride levels The roles APO B and Lp(a) play in assessing cardiac risk How the cardiac risk of women increases as estrogen declines The cardiac health benefits of monitoring lipids and considering HRT within the first six years of menopause What research studies reveal about how menopause influences cardiovascular risk Connect with Cynthia Thurlow Follow on X, Instagram & LinkedIn Check out Cynthia's website Submit your questions to support@cynthiathurlow.com Join other like-minded women in a supportive, nurturing community: The Midlife Pause/Cynthia Thurlow Cynthia's Menopause Gut Book is on presale now!

Beat Heart Disease Before It Starts — Insights from Dr. Howard Elkin with Dr. Ben Weitz. Dr. Elkin's website is Heartwise.com. His main office is in Whittier, California and he has a concierge practice in Santa Monica, California and his office number is 562-945-3753. What You'll Hear In This Episode: 02:40 A Functional Medicine approach looks at why the body would lay down plaque as a rational response to coat the artery wall against inflammation or oxidation or glycation reactions. 06:08 I asked Dr. Elkin what his view is on cholesterol and he mentioned that half of patients who have heart attacks have normal cholesterol 08:09 Dr. Elkin discusses the benefits of the Boston Heart Lab and other advanced lipid profiles for better assessing true CVD risk 09:36 Howard explains how small, dense particles are more likely to be oxidized and incorporated into arterial plaques 10:50 I explained how larger HDL particles perform reverse cholesterol transport to remove potentially harmful LDL particles from the blood stream 11:02 I asked how Dr. Elkin treats patients who have small, dense LDL particles and he explained that he gets his patients to change their lifestyle and he uses certain nutritional supplements such as niacin before he puts them on medications. 13:10 I asked Howard what are some of the most important dietary factors to change to lower cardiovascular risk in such a patient? He said it's not about cutting our eggs and saturated fat, like we used to think. Howard's way of thinking is that sugar not fat is the main villian, since it is pro-inflammatory. 16:57 I asked Dr. Elkin about one of his recent blog articles where he wrote about the new PCSK-9 inhibitor medications for cholesterol. Dr. Elkin explained these may be effective, but they showed that they could bring LDL cholesterol levels down to 36 and this is actually not a good thing, since you need cholesterol for hormones, vitamin D production, and brain function. Also, these drugs cost $14,000 per year. 20:30 Howard explained that when he does places patients on statins, he always puts them on CoQ10 to prevent muscle problems. He usually uses 100-200 mg to start with. With patients who have heart failure he will use very high dosages, along with magnesium, L-Carnitine, and D-Ribose. 24:22 Dr. Elkin discusses what nutritional supplements he will use to raise HDL levels: 2 tablespoons daily of Extra Virgin Olive oil, coconut oil, low carb diet, exercise, weight reduction, and niacin. 27:52 I asked Howard how to lower Lp(a). He said that this fragment of LDL is extremely atherogenic and is highly likely to get oxidized. Niacin, estrogen, and fish oil can help. I mentioned that I also found that berberine and tocotrienols were also helpful. 30:30 We discussed what to do about patients with elevated CRP (indicative of inflammation). Dr. Elkin mentioned that this test should be done routinely on all patients, but it is often not measured. There is a link between obesity and CRP and also between oral cavity problems and sinusitis and even poor sleep. He likes fish oil, turmeric, ginger, and boswellia to reduce inflammation.

Colatura makes music that lives in the in-between: sometimes dreamy, sometimes heavy, and laced with fuzzy guitars, undeniable hooks, and raw storytelling. Long a fixture in the Brooklyn scene, the band relocated to Pittsburgh in 2024 and now splits their time between both cities.Colatura's new EP 'If I'm Being Honest' came out August 1st via Easy Does It Records. Produced by Nixon Boyd (Hollerado, Dizzy), the EP plays like a series of late-night confessionals - introspective, nostalgic, aching, and ultimately cathartic. It marks a new chapter for the band, expanding on the melodic, dreamy indie rock of their 2022 debut LP 'And Then I'll Be Happy' and their 2024 A/B side 'Do You Miss Her' / 'Suffer Dude', which was produced by Aron Kobayashi Ritch (Momma, Kills Birds, Been Stellar).Colatura's music has earned praise from outlets such as FLOOD, Brooklyn Vegan, Under The Radar, Austin Town Hall, The Alternative, and Atwood Magazine, and landed spots on Spotify editorials such as All New Rock and Fresh Finds Rock, as well as regular radio rotation at stations like KEXP and WYEP, where they also performed a live set this past February. Described live as “like sunshine streaming out of an amp with the volume set at nine,” Colatura has shared a stage with bands such as DEHD, Slow Pulp, Mamalarky, Nation of Language, Toledo, Pom Pom Squad, Jessica Lea Mayfield, and will be supporting Blondshell this November.With official showcases at SXSW, Capitol Hill Block Party, NXNE, New Colossus, WYEP's Summer Music Festival, and Pittsburgh's Millvale and Northside Music Festivals under their belt, Colatura is carving out their place in the indie rock landscape. Following the EP, the band hit the road for a US headline tour and has a European tour slotted for this fall. Thanks for listening!!!

A two albums formatted episode of We Have A Technical ends up taking two very different detours into trance music, of all things. First, we're looking at the just remastered and digitally reissued sole LP from Portland duo Violet Arcana, 1994's In The Scene Of The Mind, which takes the road less travelled by slowing and stretching trance programming into psychedelic ethereality, and finding commonalities with contemporaneous downtempo approaches to electro-industrial and dark ambient. Next, 2012's Altered Creature by Fostercare has us flashing back to the aftermath of witch house, in which all manner of bands and producers were experimenting with the occult, sample-happy liberty that genre afforded, including Fostercare's grimy cyberpunk read on a wide range of classic rave styles.
If you struggle with sleep, pain, or anxiety, you've probably tried many medications and sleeping pills only to end up frustrated by side effects, poor results, and thinking that you're treating symptoms instead of actually feeling better. That's why I'm excited to welcome back Joe Sheehey, founder of Cured Nutrition and a former aerospace engineer who left his corporate career at Lockheed Martin to improve the lives of millions of people. Joe's path to entrepreneurship was influenced by his own mental health battles, a life-saving turning point in college, and a growing conviction that there has to be a better, more holistic approach to healing than the medications most doctors prescribe. Joe breaks down what cannabinoids like CBD, CBN, and low-dose THC actually do in the body and why the proper dosage is the difference between improving versus feeling anxious and turned off. We talk about how the stigma that clouds people's minds about the health benefits from cannabis keeps people from exploring options that could genuinely help them, and why responsible, non-intoxicating products are creating an alternative path for millions of people. And make sure you listen until the very end, because Joe explains why the government has become a major threat to the full-spectrum hemp industry, why responsible brands are being swept up in unregulated high-dose products, and what Joe is doing to protect access through a new advocacy effort to save the industry. If you're cannabis curious or simply looking for a better way to support your physical health, mental health and optimize your sleep, this episode will be an eye-opener and hopefully give you the confidence to try it for yourself.

Exercise is supposed to be healthy—but when does dedication cross into compulsion? In this episode, we sat down with sports psychologist and new host of the Feisty Women's Performance Podcast, Dr. Erin Ayala to explore the murky, often misunderstood concept of exercise addiction. We unpack why it's not an official diagnosis, how it overlaps with perfectionism, anxiety, body image, and control, and why endurance athletes—especially midlife women—can be uniquely vulnerable. We also dive into identity, boundaries, training culture, and how to tell whether exercise is supporting your life—or quietly running it.Erin Ayala, PhD, LP, CMPC is a Licensed Psychologist and Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC) offering virtual mental health therapy for athletes aged 14 and above.

Sandesh Patnam, Managing Partner at Premji Invest, breaks down how long duration capital changes the way you evaluate companies, founders, and moats. We talk about what most growth investors miss, why product strength still matters, and how to separate real AI businesses from thin wrappers in a noisy market.Premji Invest is a captive, evergreen fund built to grow an endowment that supports major education work, which gives the team flexibility on time horizon and partnership style. Sandesh shares how that shows up in diligence, how they think about backing contrarian founders, and why the best companies in this AI era may still be ahead of us.Key TakeawaysFocus on the long arc, not quarter by quarter optics, founders make better decisions when they are not trapped in short term metricsIn growth investing, TAM models and KPI spreadsheets can distract from the core question, does the product have real strength and an expanding roadmapEnduring outcomes often come from backing a contrarian view early, then helping it move from contrarian to consensus over timeEvergreen capital changes behavior, you can slow down, build relationships, and partner across private and public markets instead of treating IPO as the finish lineIn AI, separate the stack into data center, foundation models, and applications, then look for defensibility like vertical depth, data moats, and compounding usage valueTimestamped highlights00:38 Premji Invest explained, evergreen structure, one LP, and why public markets can be part of the journey, not the exit04:47 Two common growth investor lenses and what gets missed when product and roadmap do not lead the thesis08:48 Partnership mindset, building trust, and being the first call when things get hard12:48 The contrarian to consensus path, what creates alpha, and how to support founders through the lonely middle19:54 Why rushing decisions is a trap, and how flexibility changes when and how you can partner with a company20:55 AI investing framework, three layers, what looks frothy, what can endure, and where moats still exist26:48 The cost of intelligence is collapsing, why this may still be the early internet moment, and what that implies for the next waveA line that stuck with me“We want to be the first port of call when the seas are turbulent.”Practical moves you can stealPressure test the roadmap, ask when product two ships, what adjacency comes next, and what tradeoffs change at scaleWhen evaluating AI apps, demand a defensibility story beyond the model, look for proprietary data, vertical workflow depth, and value that improves with usageTreat speed as a risk factor, if you cannot complete your churn cycle of doubt and validation, step back rather than force certaintyCall to ActionIf you liked this one, follow the show and share it with a founder, operator, or investor who is building in AI right now.

If you've been practicing EM for more than a decade, your approach to the febrile young infant has (appropriately) evolved. For years, the default was LP + empiric antibiotics + admission for almost everyone. That approach prevented missing meningitis, but at the cost of a lot of harm: invasive testing, unnecessary antibiotics, and hospitalization-related complications. The modern approach is a paradigm shift toward risk stratification, biomarkers, and shared decision-making, while still respecting one immutable truth: Missing neonatal bacterial meningitis can be catastrophic. This episode revisits the framework from a prior EM Cases episode and updates it with a landmark study that directly informs how far we can safely go—especially in the 0–28 day group, with the father of multiple well-known PECARN rules Dr. Nathan Kuppermann and lead author Dr. Brett Burstein...

Today I spoke with Dr. Louis Rothschild about his new book Rapprochement Between Fathers and Sons Breakdowns, Reunions, Potentialities (Karnac, 2024). Our conversation moved freely between theory, generational attitudes, thinkers, and personal vignettes. What is a good enough father? What is the difference between a man of achievement and a man of power? Who is the father of the mother's mind? What happens when a father enables holding? How is masculinity valued by other men? What is meant by phrases such as a “man's gotta do what a man's gotta do?” Why exactly do we need to “call the boy's father?” How is the father's role rendered invisible? These are some of the questions subsumed in the broader question of “Who nurtures and who is nurtured?” (And does the myth of the “self-made-man” indicate a man who exists without nurturing?) “What I'm arguing”, says Rothschild, “is that that sexist dichotomy is a mirage in its own right and that attachment strings needn't be severed. They can be reworked over the lifespan and this idea of having this clean tidy break and going off to live your life where liberating the kid from this regressive maternal bond is the path to individuation, I think that's just patently false.” Like an analyst, the book has been in formation for many years. “Percolating and distilling” as Dr. Rothschild says at the top of the interview. Motivated by the “way the culture was shifting” he sensed “that things I take for granted are actually a minority opinion.” Rothschild's survey of sons includes mythology; Oedipus scripture; Issac. As well as the sons of literature; Sendak's Max, Silverstein's Boy, White's Swan, and others. Affect rich case illustrations are also presented. The issues addressed in the book are the ones we are contending with in in analysis. They are the discussions we are having with our fathers, sons, and families. Rothschild's book is essential and meets the clinical moment. “Louis Rothschild's book is both an outstanding representative of ‘return to the father' and a unique explication of psychoanalytic thought on its own. This is a book of great literary elegance and impressive psychological wisdom.” Salman Akhtar, MD Christopher Russell, LP is a psychoanalyst in Chelsea, Manhattan. He is a member of the faculty and supervising analyst at The Center for Modern Psychoanalytic Studies and The New York Graduate School of Psychoanalysis.

In conversation with our very own Andreas Munk Holm, Christian Hernandez, founding GP of 2150 and Jan Hofmann of the Viessmann Generations Group, look at how climate investing is moving from narrative to industrial reality, where cities, energy, materials, and manufacturing become venture-scale markets, and execution matters more than slogans.Today, 2150 officially launched its €210M second fund, bringing total assets under management to €500M and reinforcing its position as one of Europe's leading investors backing the technologies shaping future cities and industrial systems.Fund II reflects growing institutional conviction in 2150's thesis: that cities generate around 80% of global prosperity, and that the next wave of venture-scale outcomes will come from making urbanisation and industrial activity sustainable at planetary scale. The fund attracted a diversified LP base across Europe, Asia, and North America, including Viessmann Generations Group, Novo Holdings, EIFO, Chr. Augustinus Fabrikker, Carbon Equity, and Church Pension Group.Momentum is already underway. 2150 Fund II has already invested into seven companies, including AtmosZero, GetMobil, Metycle, Mission Zero Technologies and three further unannounced deals. Across both funds, 2150's 27 portfolio companies generate more than $1B in annual revenue, employ 4,500+ people globally, and deliver megatonne-scale climate impact.Key takeaways:Urban and industrial systems are now venture-scale markets.Energy, cooling, industrial heat, mobility, materials, and circular economy solutions are no longer niche climate bets — they are core infrastructure categories with global demand.Impact and returns are converging.2150's portfolio demonstrates that companies tackling planetary-scale problems can also generate outlier financial outcomes, measured in real revenues, jobs, and deployment at scale.Institutional capital is leaning into climate infrastructure.The breadth of Fund II's LP base signals a shift: long-term institutions are increasingly backing strategies that combine sustainability with durable, industrial cash flows.Execution matters more than narratives.2150's analytical, problem-first approach targeting the hardest bottlenecks in cities and industry is translating into faster scaling and earlier commercial traction across the portfolio.Europe can build global category leaders.With platforms spanning energy, materials, and urban systems, 2150's portfolio shows that European-founded companies can scale globally without compromising ambition.
Don and Dude keep the “I Love the 80s” tour rolling into 1983, a year when cable TV, mail‑order music clubs, and early MTV helped R&B and pop polish their hooks without sanding off all the emotional rough edges. One of us brings a married‑duo soul record that turns relationship conflict into sophisti‑funk therapy, while the other counters with a technicolor, hook‑stuffed debut that reframes punky, downtown weirdness as mass‑appeal pop. Together, the albums show how 1983's R&B and pop could be slick, vulnerable, and chart‑ready, but still tangled up in money, heartbreak, and the messy work of becoming yourself.The AlbumsWomack & Womack – Love Wars (1983) On their debut as a duo, Cecil and Linda Womack fold family gospel roots, Sam Cooke's shadow, and veteran songwriting chops into a lean early‑80s R&B set that treats love like an ongoing negotiation instead of a fairy tale. Built around supple basslines, tight James Gadson grooves, and restrained synths, the record plays like a living‑room soul soap opera where arguments, red flags, and reconciliations all get equal airtime. Tracks like “Love Wars,” “Baby I'm Scared of You,” and their quietly devastating cover of “Angie” push past easy romance into fear, honesty, and hard‑won optimism, sketching a relationship cycle that feels lived‑in rather than idealized. Produced by Stewart Levine with an A‑team of L.A. session players, the album's space, subtlety, and emotional candor would later be heard as a bridge toward neo‑soul and more adult‑minded R&B.Cyndi Lauper – She's So Unusual (1983) Cyndi Lauper's solo debut explodes out of the speakers as a neon‑bright mix of pop‑rock, new wave, and downtown art‑kid attitude, turning a batch of covers and co‑writes into an unmistakably personal statement. From the cynical, melodica‑laced opener “Money Changes Everything” through the feminist rallying cry of “Girls Just Want to Have Fun” and the tender, slow‑motion reassurance of “Time After Time,” she proves she can be funny, strange, and devastatingly vulnerable—sometimes in the same song. Rick Chertoff's production leans on jangly guitars, stacked harmonies, and sharp synth hooks, but always keeps Lauper's elastic, technically fierce voice at the center. The result is an album that made history with four Top‑Five singles and still plays like a manifesto for unapologetic individuality in pop.Diggin' AlbumsHome Front – Watch It Die (2025) Edmonton's Home Front push their self‑described “bootwave” further on Watch It Die, fusing 80s‑inflected synths, post‑punk grit, and anthemic choruses into songs about getting by when everything feels like it's fraying at the edges.The Twilight Sad – It's the Long Goodbye (2026) On their sixth LP, The Twilight Sad stretch their dense, noise‑tinted indie rock into a reflective, slow‑burning set about loss, endings, and hanging on, wrapping James Graham's thick‑accented confessions in towering guitars and electronics that feel both crushing and oddly comforting.Flickerstick – Superluminal (2025) Reuniting after more than two decades, Flickerstick return with Superluminal, an 11‑track set of cinematic alt‑rock that folds their early‑2000s melodic instincts into grown‑up songs about time, aging, and the strange vertigo of getting a second act.Def Leppard – Pyromania (1983) Pyromania finds Def Leppard and producer Mutt Lange perfecting the gleaming, radio‑ready side of hard rock, stacking harmonized choruses and surgically precise riffs into arena anthems like “Photograph,” “Rock of Ages,” and “Foolin'” that defined what big‑budget 80s rock would sound like.Follow & Support Follow the show on Instagram, Facebook, Threads, and Bluesky @albumnerds, and support by subscribing, rating, reviewing, and sharing.“You'll find many of the truths that we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view.” - Obi-Wan Kenobi
I always love when tracks show up just hours before the show, and that’s what happened with this all-covers episode. As I’ve said many times before, I have a folder on my laptop where I toss in new cover tunes whenever I come across them. When the folder is full, that’s when it’s time for a show. That’s exactly what happened, this time around. With this week’s release of the new album by The Damned where they remake tracks that the recently deceased Brian James loved, I saw the following post on Instagram: “Fret Rattles are excited to announce the release of our third full-length studio LP, titled “As the World Falls Apart.” It features thirteen tracks and comes in at the furious pace of 36 minutes. The LP was recorded in 2024 and 2025 at Flowers Studio (Minneapolis, MN) and Ecstattic Studio (St. Paul, MN) by our long-time producer Ali Jaafar.” A tracklist accompanied the post that indicated the new album was going to include two cover tunes, so I immediately sent a DM to requst their inclusion in tonight’s broadcast. They agreed, and in the early afternoon I received an email that included their explosive cover of “What […]

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 1-22-2026: An emailer from Canada asks about long-term Remicade (infliximab) use for her 16-year-old daughter's ulcerative colitis. Dr. Dawn explains the drug blocks tumor necrosis factor, which stops autoimmune attacks but also weakens infection defense—increasing risk of fungal infections, tuberculosis, and after about 10 years, slightly elevated blood cancer risk. She recommends the daughter practice good hygiene and mask in high-risk settings. For achieving full remission, she suggests vitamin D levels around 75-80, DHEA supplementation, strict gluten avoidance due to its pro-inflammatory effects, and working with a certified functional medicine practitioner to heal the gut and potentially withdraw medication. Dr. Dawn presents a case study of a 27-year-old woman with progressive weakness, pins-and-needles sensations, and impaired balance. Despite normal B12 blood levels, elevated homocysteine and methylmalonic acid revealed functional B12 deficiency from using 20-30 nitrous oxide whippets daily. Nitrous oxide oxidizes the cobalt atom in methylcobalamin, permanently inactivating the enzyme needed for myelin sheath maintenance. Treatment requires months of daily B12 injections with recovery taking up to 84 weeks. She warns that nitrous oxide also interacts dangerously with Viagra-type drugs (causing dangerous blood pressure drops), methotrexate, stimulants, hallucinogens, and respiratory depressants. She describes Canadian researchers developing a miniaturized 3D printer for vocal cord repair. After removing nodules that cause hoarseness, the device prints hydrogel along the wound to create a flat surface preventing keloid-like regrowth, rather like spackling a wall before healing occurs underneath. Dr. Dawn discusses lipoprotein(a), written as Lap(a), a genetic cardiovascular risk factor discovered in the 1960s. This relative of LDL carries a protein that promotes blood clots, thus raising heart attack and stroke risks. In a recent large survey, only about 14% of people have been screened despite its significance. New drugs like pelicarsin can reduce Lp(a) levels up to 80%,trials underway to confirm a benefit of reduced cardiac events. She notes tennis star Arthur Ashe had high Lp(a) contributing to his coagulopathy. A natural option is already available. She recommends lumbrokinase, derived from earthworms and used in traditional Chinese medicine, as an existing treatment that combats high Lp(a) and counteracts its procoagulant effects. The product Boluoke is commercially available, offering an alternative to high-dose niacin which causes intolerable flushing and diarrhea. Dr. Dawn reports research finding people with anxiety disorders have 8% lower choline levels in brain regions regulating emotion. Increasing choline could help. Choline sources include eggs (two eggs provide 300mg of the 500mg daily choline need), organ meats, salmon, soybeans, and lecithin supplements.

EPYSODE 67: "Would You Believe", by Billy Nicholls. Guest: Billy Nicholls. Additional commentary by Uncle Herff. This week we present one of the most beautiful and bittersweet stories in 1960s British pop: Billy Nicholls' legendary 1968 album Would You Believe. Hailed by critics, this shimmering psych-pop masterpiece was shelved before its proper release and went on to become one of the rarest and most sought-after records in the collector world. We explore the album's lush orchestration, studio craftsmanship, and the influence of the Immediate Records scene, including the key roles played by producer Andrew Loog Oldham and some of Billy's famous musician friends. We discuss the label troubles, industry upheavals, and twists of fate that kept this stunning record in the shadows for decades. Plus a great story of how a Beatle helped kickstart Billy's career! Whether you're a long-time admirer of this wonderful album or discovering it for the first time, this epysode unpacks the music, the myth, and the enduring magic that transformed a once-lost LP into a psych-pop holy grail. I hope you dig "Would You Believe" as much as I do. - Farmer John ===CONNECT & SUPPORT=== Transport yourself into the realm of grooviness by supporting us on Patreon using this link --> patreon.com/FarmerJohnMusic Use this link to follow us on Facebook --> https://www.facebook.com/farmerjohnmusic/ Use this link to follow us on Instagram --> https://www.instagram.com/vinylrelics/ Use this link to follow us on TikTok --> https://www.tiktok.com/@vinylrelicspodcast Use this link to follow us on BlueSky --> https://bsky.app/profile/farmerjohnmusic.bsky.social And find us on X @VinylRelicsPod Email me @ farmerjohnmusic@gmail.com ===LINKS=== Check out Billy's albums and other merchandise here: https://www.billynicholls.com ===THE MUSIC=== Songs used in this Epysode, in order of appearance.

Global Investors: Foreign Investing In US Real Estate with Charles Carillo
In this episode of the Global Investors Podcast, Charles Carillo sits down with Ray Heimann, founder of Terra Capital, to break down the sub-institutional multifamily strategy — a segment of the market that's too small for large private equity firms but often too complex for mom-and-pop operators. Ray explains how his team targets sub-50 to sub-200 unit properties, sources deals direct-to-seller, executes heavy value-add renovations, and uses scattered-site property management to institutionalize small multifamily portfolios at scale. This conversation is a deep dive into: Why institutions can't compete in this segment How off-market sourcing creates an edge What most value-add investors underestimate Why operations and property management drive returns more than acquisitions How to think about recession-resilient Midwest markets If you're an operator, LP, or serious multifamily investor looking beyond crowded institutional deals, this episode will challenge how you think about scale, competition, and long-term returns.

"M. Byrd found himself in a wholly foreign place upon becoming a father for the first time. Enveloped by the moment, the German singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer transfers this energy onto his 2025 full-length offering, A Better Place [Nettwerk].""He took the first step on this perpetual journey as a kid obsessed with music back in Germany. During 2020, he introduced his sound with the single “Mountain,” eclipsing 10.9 million Spotify streams and paving the way for the Orion EP. The latter boasted another fan favorite “Morning Sun,” which gathered 6.2 million Spotify streams. 2023 saw him serve up his first full-length LP, The Seed. Along the way, he incited tastemaker applause from EUPHORIA., 1883 Magazine, OnesToWatch, and more.""Around the same time, the onset of fatherhood turned his world upside down in the best way. It effectively divided the writing process of A Better Place into two halves—physically represented by his young family's move from Hamburg to Denmark."“There are all of these songs before the birth and all of these songs after the birth,” he affirms. “I was able to reflect on myself and what was happening. I said, ‘Goodbye', to a lot of friends in Hamburg and started a new life in Denmark. All of these changes happened, and I was really trying to put them into songs, so I would have them with me forever.”"Ultimately, M. Byrd soundtracks the most universal experience of all: change."

I'm taking a break this month, so my great friend and fellow music obsessive Dave Blom has come to the rescue. He realised that the LTA audience needed their monthly dose of music discussion that thousands of other music podcasts couldn't provide.... Welcome to episode 191 of Love That Album. Dave loves his rawwwwwwwk, so he's decided to record an episode to talk about the debut LP from Sydney band Wolfmother. Coming out in 2005, it tipped its hat at old school hard rock and psychedelia. Dave will give you his personal history with the album, and a breakdown of each of its songs. Thanks immensely for keeping the light on at LTA HQ while I do other stuff, Blommy. Go back into the LTA archives and find previous episodes where he's saved my hide in a similar fashion (LTA112 “Jet”, Episode 92 “Blackfeather” and “Avalanche”, Episode 102 - “The Vines) as well as a few episodes where we went head to head.

Marco DeMeireles, co founder and managing partner at ANSA, breaks down how a modern VC firm wins by being focused, data driven, and allergic to hype. If you want a clearer view of how investors evaluate open source, mission critical industries, and AI categories, this is a practical, operator minded look behind the curtain. Marco explains ANSA's focus on what they call undercover markets, from open source and open core businesses to defense, intelligence, cybersecurity, healthcare IT, and infrastructure companies that become deeply embedded and rarely lose customers. We also get into how they raised their first fund, why portfolio concentration changes everything, and how they push founders toward efficiency and profitability without killing ambition. Key Takeaways• In open source, two things matter more than most people admit: founder DNA tied to the project, and what you put behind the paywall that enterprises will pay for• Concentration forces rigor, fewer bets means deeper diligence, clearer underwriting, and more hands on support post investment• Great early stage support is not just advice, it is people, capital planning, and operating help that changes outcomes• AI investing gets easier when you start with category selection, avoid fickle demand, then hunt for non obvious wedges in real workflows• Long term winners tend to show compounding growth, improving efficiency, real demand, durable business models, founder strength, and an asymmetric risk reward at the price Timestamped Highlights00:00 Marco's quick intro and what ANSA invests in00:36 Undercover markets, open source, and mission critical industries explained01:54 The two open source filters that change how ANSA underwrites a deal03:31 Why open source can work in defense, plus the Defense Unicorns example05:29 How a new firm raises a first fund, and what the right LP partners look for10:50 The three levers ANSA pulls with founders: people, capital, operations15:22 Marco's six part framework for evaluating investments17:39 How to tell who wins in crowded AI categories, and why niche wedges matter21:41 The first investment they will never forget, and the air gapped cloud problem A line worth stealing“You can't outsource greatness. You can't outsource people selection.” Pro Tips• If you are building open source, be intentional about what is free versus paid, security, compliance, and auditability tend to earn real pricing power• If your business depends on paid acquisition, test a path to organic growth early, it can unlock profitability and give you leverage in fundraising and exits• In crowded AI spaces, pick a wedge where documentation is heavy, complexity is low, and ROI is obvious, then expand once you own that lane Call to ActionIf this episode helped you think more clearly about investing and building, follow the show, subscribe, and share it with one founder or operator who is navigating funding, pricing, or go to market right now

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. Host Dave Gebroe talks with Spirit biographer Ryan Gabrinetti about the classic psych band's entire recorded output, with commentary, stories, and star ratings for every release. Part 3 covers Spirit's most fondly remembered LP, Twelve Dreams Of Dr. Sardonicus, which also became the commercial high point of the band. An FM underground classic created after the band had parted ways with producer Lou Adler, it has since served as the introductory keyhole for most of the band's fans. Here are just a few of the many things that Ryan discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: A discussion about the single that served as the band's final release of the 1960s; How Neil Young's producer David Briggs modified Spirit's sound to showcase the band in a different light; The fights happening in the band at the time, not to mention the massive accident that Randy California incurred during the recording of Sardonicus; Whether Randy's brain injury contributed to the boundless sense of creativity he experienced for many years to come; And an in-depth deep dive on every song off Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus.

Epysode 66: "Relatively Clean Rivers", by Relatively Clean Rivers. Additional commentary by Uncle Herff. This week we drop the needle on one of the most elusive albums in psych-folk/rock history: the self-titled 1976 release by Relatively Clean Rivers. Join us as we explore the origins of this enigmatic project, the visionary mind of Phil Pearlman, and the winding path that turned this quietly released LP into a collector's holy grail. We break down the album's dreamy acoustic textures and the unique blend of folk, country, and West Coast psychedelia that has kept crate diggers searching for original pressings for decades. Whether you're discovering it for the first time or revisiting a beloved classic, this epysode uncovers the legacy that make this record a true vinyl treasure. I hope you dig "Relatively Clean Rivers" as much as I do. - Farmer John ===CONNECT & SUPPORT=== Transport yourself into the realm of grooviness by supporting us on Patreon using this link --> patreon.com/FarmerJohnMusic Use this link to follow us on Facebook --> https://www.facebook.com/farmerjohnmusic/ Use this link to follow us on Instagram --> https://www.instagram.com/vinylrelics/ Use this link to follow us on TikTok --> https://www.tiktok.com/@vinylrelicspodcast Use this link to follow us on BlueSky --> https://bsky.app/profile/farmerjohnmusic.bsky.social And find us on X @VinylRelicsPod Email me @ farmerjohnmusic@gmail.com ===LINKS=== Karen Darby of The Beat of the Earth full interview: https://members.tripod.com/lysergia_2/LamaWorkshop/Bote/lamaBeatOfTheEarth.htm ===THE MUSIC=== Songs used in this Epysode, in order of appearance.

If you've been feeling emotionally drained from relationship conflict or disagreeing with people that you love, this episode is for you. Despite how technology and social media have made it incredibly easy to stay connected with family, friends, and our communities, many people feel more divided and disconnected than ever. That's why I'm thrilled to introduce you to Kelsey Blahnik, a clinical social worker and therapist who works on the front lines of emotional and relational tension. From families and friendships to workplaces, in our increasingly divided political culture, Kelsey helps people navigate conflict without losing themselves or the people they care about. Kelsey is the creator and author of The And Way: Assertive Peacemaking in a Divided World, a powerful therapeutic framework that challenges conventional behavior. She explains that most of us believe we have only two options in conflict—fight or flight—when, in reality, there's nuance to consider when choosing the best path forward. We explore how to set boundaries without burning bridges, speak your truth without escalating tension, and how to hold both accountability and compassion at the same time. If polarized relationships, "either/or" thinking, and day-to-day conversations are adding stress to your life, this episode will give you a practical way to navigate conflict with clarity, self-respect, and inner peace.
