Send feedback for the showWelcome back to Rizzology! In this episode, Nick and Tom DeGiuli are hanging out in the studio. We kick things off talking about live podcasting, crazy travel schedules, and how Hyrox is blowing up as the new CrossFit.From there, it's a wild ride: they swap stories about fitness cults, the Liver King scandal, influencer marketing gone rogue, and just how weird social media can get—yes, including selling bathwater and OnlyFans drama. There's plenty of joking around, some surprisingly deep talk about chasing trends, being real with yourself, and what it means to actually be happy with your body and your life, even as the internet keeps changing the game.00:00 Live Streaming & Travel Reflections07:25 "Wrestling with Authenticity and Persona"14:56 Marine Biologist's Thrilling Passion19:54 AI Creations Need Watermarks22:22 Social Media Overload Impact27:13 Fragmented Follower Engagement Issues32:08 "Lion or Sheep Dilemma"38:24 "Seeking Connection and Attention"45:16 Gym's Next Chapter: Jiu Jitsu?47:44 Training Girls in Self-Defense57:24 Finding Personal Happiness in Fitness01:02:37 Life Choices and Expansion Dilemma01:03:27 Expanding for Business Growth01:12:40 Transformative Late-Night Workouts01:16:10 Designing an Innovative Gym Space01:19:31 "Consult God Before Church Visit"Support the showYouTubeInstagram Tik Tok We'd love to hear your thoughts on this episode!

There's so much hard and heavy news out there right now, climate related and not. It feels like decades of progress is being lost. But — good news! — there are many solutions that can be deployed right now. This week we're featuring conversations with three big thinkers who are bringing those solutions to light and showing why — even when times seem at their worst — they have no room for doom.  Award-winning environmental journalist Alan Weisman traveled the world to highlight possible paths out of the climate crisis. Marine biologist and policy expert Ayana Elizabeth Johnson asks us to focus on the question, “What if we get it right?” And climate activist Bill McKibben wants to activate seniors because, “If you have reached the age where you have hair coming out your ears, you probably have structural power coming out of your ears.”  Guests:  Alan Weisman, Author, “Hope Dies Last” Ayana Elizabeth Johnson, Marine Biologist; Author, “What if We Get it Right?”Bill McKibben, Founder, 350.org and Third Act Support Climate One by going ad-free!

This hour, Ian Hoch speaks with Jon Copley, a marine biologist and Professor of Ocean Exploration at the University of Southampton in the UK, about a colossal squid that was caught on tape for the first time in history!

Shark communication is critical in changing their "man-eating" reputation from the movie Jaws. Sharks need protection so telling people about the wonders of sharks is essential. Marine biology is more than just a job — it's a lifestyle driven by passion and purpose. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, host Andrew Lewin speaks with marine biologist Kenzie Horton, who shares how her love for the ocean shaped her career. Based in Florida, Kenzie juggles a full-time role in state government, a master's degree researching white sharks, and a growing platform on TikTok where she busts marine science myths and offers ocean safety tips. Ocean science communication is at the heart of Kenzie's mission. She uses humor, storytelling, and relatable advice to connect with a broad audience online — from what swimsuits not to wear in the ocean to real shark science. If you're curious about how to blend marine conservation with viral content or want to know how to break into the field of marine biology, this episode is a must-listen.

Buy Now: The Shopping Conspiracy is a documentary that was released on Netflix a week before Black Friday. The movie reveals the shocking truth about how large corporations manipulate consumers to increase their profits at the peril of the consumer's wallet and the planet's health. In this episode of the How to Protect the Ocean podcast, host Andrew Lewin discusses the recently released Netflix documentary, Buy Now: The Shopping Conspiracy. The episode focuses on the themes of consumerism, overconsumption, and their environmental impacts, especially in the context of the holiday shopping season. Major Points Discussed: Consumer Culture and Overconsumption: The documentary critiques how companies like Amazon, Adidas, and Apple use persuasive marketing techniques to encourage consumers to overspend. It raises questions about whether society has prioritized material possessions over experiences and relationships. Environmental Impacts: The film highlights the ecological damage caused by excessive consumption, including the disposal of unsold clothing, which contributes to environmental degradation in countries like Ghana. It discusses the issue of e-waste, revealing how discarded electronics are often shipped to developing countries, leading to health hazards for workers who dismantle them without proper protection. Textile Waste and Fast Fashion: The documentary examines the fast fashion industry, showcasing how companies produce millions of items annually, resulting in significant textile waste that pollutes ecosystems. It emphasizes the harmful effects of synthetic fabrics, which release microplastics into waterways. Carbon Footprint and Resource Depletion: The production and transportation of goods are linked to high fossil fuel consumption, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions and climate change. The extraction of raw materials for consumer goods leads to deforestation and loss of biodiversity. Plastic Waste and Ocean Pollution: Excessive packaging, often made from non-recyclable plastics, exacerbates the plastic waste crisis, harming marine life and ecosystems. The episode stresses the urgent need for sustainable consumption practices to mitigate these issues. Consumer Responsibility vs. Systemic Solutions: While the documentary raises awareness about consumer manipulation, it also questions whether the onus of change should solely fall on consumers. Lewin argues for the need for systematic solutions and corporate accountability to address the root causes of overconsumption and environmental degradation. Personal Reflections: Lewin shares his own struggles with impulse buying and the societal pressures to consume, especially during the holiday season. He encourages listeners to think critically about their purchases and consider sustainable alternatives, such as thrift shopping. The episode concludes with a call to action for listeners to reflect on their consumption habits and engage in discussions about sustainability and environmental protection.

Story Transcript:Ca: Enric caminava lentament per l'Aquarium de Barcelona, amb un bloc de notes a la mà.En: Enric walked slowly through the Aquarium de Barcelona, with a notebook in his hand.Ca: Era un dia de tardor, i les fulles dels arbres del parc del costat del Port Olímpic començaven a caure.En: It was an autumn day, and the leaves on the trees in the park next to the Port Olímpic were beginning to fall.Ca: Enric, marine biòleg, estava cercant inspiració per als seus projectes de recerca.En: Enric, a marine biologist, was looking for inspiration for his research projects.Ca: No obstant això, al seu interior, sentia aquella sensació de no estar a l'altura, tant a la feina com a la seva vida personal.En: However, inside, he felt that nagging sensation of not being up to par, both at work and in his personal life.Ca: L'aquari era fascinant.En: The aquarium was fascinating.Ca: Els túnels de vidre permetien veure grans taurons passar a pocs centímetres del seu cap.En: The glass tunnels allowed him to see large sharks pass just inches above his head.Ca: Els peixos es movien amb gràcia entre les esculleres de corall, i les meduses brillaven amb colors de l'arc de sant Martí.En: The fish moved gracefully among the coral reefs, and the jellyfish glowed with colors of the rainbow.Ca: Enric s'aturà davant d'un gran tanc ple de meduses.En: Enric stopped in front of a large tank full of jellyfish.Ca: Sempre havia trobat aquell ball rítmic i tranquil·litzador.En: He had always found their rhythmic and calming dance mesmerizing.Ca: Va començar a prendre notes, la seva ment tractant de captar alguna idea significativa.En: He began to take notes, his mind trying to capture some meaningful idea.Ca: Sense avisar, una picor es va escampar per la seva gola.En: Without warning, an itch spread through his throat.Ca: Va agafar-se el coll, i de sobte, tot l'aquari començà a donar voltes.En: He clutched his neck, and suddenly, the whole aquarium started to spin.Ca: La seva vista es tornà borrosa, i va saber que estava tenint una reacció al·lèrgica.En: His vision blurred, and he knew he was having an allergic reaction.Ca: Potser era el pol·len que havia entrat amb algú a l'aquari o potser una defensa desconeguda contra el marisc.En: Perhaps it was pollen that someone had brought into the aquarium, or perhaps an unknown reaction to shellfish.Ca: Sentia com el seu cos li fallava.En: He felt his body failing him.Ca: Enric tenia dues opcions davant d'aquest imprevist: correr cap al centre mèdic del mateix aquari o intentar continuar treballant, ignorant la situació.En: Enric had two options in the face of this unexpected situation: run to the medical center within the aquarium or try to continue working, ignoring the situation.Ca: En el passat, solia empènyer-se a compensar la seva inseguretat, però avui, el seu cos li cridava ajuda.En: In the past, he used to push himself to compensate for his insecurity, but today, his body was crying out for help.Ca: De sobte va caure als genolls, incapaç d'aixecar-se.En: Suddenly, he fell to his knees, unable to stand.Ca: La situació semblava desesperada, però una veu gentil va emergir d'entre el murmuri constant dels visitants.En: The situation seemed desperate, but a gentle voice emerged from among the constant murmuring of visitors.Ca: “Ei, estàs bé?En: "Hey, are you okay?"Ca: ” preguntà un jove que s'apropava ràpidament.En: asked a young man who was approaching quickly.Ca: Enric sentia com la respiració li faltava, però va poder assenyalar cap al centre mèdic.En: Enric felt his breath leaving him, but he managed to point toward the medical center.Ca: El jove no va perdre el temps.En: The young man didn't waste time.Ca: Amb rapidesa, el va ajudar a posar-se dempeus i el va portar amb celeritat cap al punt d'atenció mèdica.En: Quickly, he helped Enric to his feet and swiftly brought him to the medical attention point.Ca: Els metges de guàrdia van reaccionar immediatament.En: The on-call doctors reacted immediately.Ca: Una estona després, Enric descansava a una sala del centre mèdic.En: A while later, Enric was resting in a room at the medical center.Ca: La seva respiració tornava a ser constant i regular.En: His breathing was back to being steady and regular.Ca: El jove que l'havia ajudat seia a prop, vigilant que tot anés bé.En: The young man who had helped him sat nearby, ensuring everything was alright.Ca: “Gràcies per la teva ajuda,” va dir Enric, amb un deix d'emoció a la veu.En: "Thank you for your help," said Enric, with a hint of emotion in his voice.Ca: Fins aleshores, sempre havia pensat que mostrar feble era un punt feble.En: Until then, he had always thought that showing weakness was a flaw.Ca: Avui va aprendre que reconèixer quan necessitava ajuda no només era humà, sinó essencial.En: Today he learned that recognizing when he needed help was not only human but essential.Ca: Això li recordava que en la recerca, ja fos científica o emocional, la connexió humana era vital.En: This reminded him that in research, whether scientific or emotional, human connection was vital.Ca: Amb una nova perspectiva, Enric sabia que podia enfrontar-se als seus projectes amb més confiança, sabent que no sempre havia d'estar sol.En: With a new perspective, Enric knew he could face his projects with more confidence, knowing he didn't always have to be alone.Ca: Va sortir de l'aquari amb el cor més lleuger, preparat per a qualsevol desafiament que pogués venir.En: He left the aquarium with a lighter heart, ready for any challenges that might come his way.

This week, Christiana shares her awe and admiration for the athletes at Paris' Paralympics after being lucky enough to experience some of the games first-hand. Can these incredible athletes inspire us to think and act differently on climate change? As global barometers measure the hottest August ever recorded, the hosts talk about extreme heat and its impact on children - affecting their health, their education and even placing them at increased risk of child marriage. Tom quizzes Paul and Christiana about the events of 12th January 1882 (hint: coal-fired power stations) and celebrates the news that the UK will close its last coal-fired power station later this month. Paul meanwhile is emphatic that nations and businesses need A Plan to Decarbonise. This week, Christiana is in conversation with Dr. Ayana Elizabeth Johnson, a marine biologist, policy expert and writer. Ayana co-founded the non-profit think tank Urban Ocean Lab, co-edited the bestselling climate anthology All We Can Save, and was the co-host of the How to Save a Planet podcast. Her upcoming anthology is What If We Get it Right?: Visions of Climate Futures. Christiana and Ayana discuss the ocean's bounty of climate solutions; renewable offshore energy, carbon-absorbing wetlands and mangroves, and seaweeds and shellfish to feed people.   GUEST Dr. Ayana Elizabeth Johnson, Marine Biologist, Policy Expert, and Writer LinkedIn | Instagram | X  | Website You can preorder the book, What If We Get it Right?: Visions of Climate Futures For more information, subscribe to the What If We Get It Right?

Sarah and Martha are women who live in the sea and on the coast. Their journey takes them through all aspects of the sea as they explore themselves and their relationship. Transfigured Sea is a work of literary fiction, written in prose with a few poems included. Minimal use of dialogue facilitates its dream-like atmosphere. This relationship undergoes many difficulties, as they travel. In the deep seabed, they face themselves and discover the healing light of bioluminescence. When Sarah finally walks back out onto the beach, she is full of stillness and silence. She is now self-sufficient and no longer dependent on the relationship with Martha. The major characters include Sarah who is a poet and a biologist. She has problems with her mother, who believes poetry to be morally wrong. Her mother also dominates and stifles Sarah. Sarah finds a shell on the beach which has a visionary quality. The other major character is Martha, sometimes known as the Sea Sprite. She was raped years ago, on land. She is gentle, but also self-centred. She makes sarcastic remarks and uses her wit to sidestep issues. The third major character is the sea itself. The plants and animals in the sea often parallel the lives of the two women. Themes include the role of the sea as a place of change and difficult personal growth. Another theme is the natural history of the ocean. The third theme is Ancient Greek mythology in terms of Nereides , or sea nymphs. They represent everything kind and beautiful about the sea and offer protection to those in distress. The settings are the various aspects of the sea, including the coast. These range from the beach to rocky coast, estuary, mangroves, shallow water, coral reef, open waters, Antarctica, a storm and the Deep. On the shores of the ocean, Laura and Daphne fantasize that they are mother and daughter, mother and Sea Spirit. They both have problems in their past, which they need to resolve. They set out to explore every aspect of the sea, from an estuary and mangroves to Antarctic waters and the deep ocean. Mother Sea is a whisper of emotion and a memory of intuition. She dwells in the subconscious. Sea creatures abound, from sea urchins and stingrays to dolphins and sharks. Some of these parallel the behavior of the women. Sea nymphs accompany them and they are assisted by a special conch shell. While they are exploring the sea, the women also explore their own make-ups. Laura remembers interactions with her own mother. Daphne needs healing. However, they have no idea of the profound changes which will come to them.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Blind spots are, by definition, difficult to challenge. Katie and I rise to the occasion in this edition of Doing What Works.Here are your show notes…Do you remember the “Marine Biologist” scene from Seinfeld?“Don't make assumptions” is one of the agreements in The Four Agreements.David Foster Wallace's This Is Water might inspire you to be less judgmental.The “thirty seconds or fewer” kindness rule.High levels of positive illusion can help you sustain long-term romantic relationships.“The Gell-Mann Amnesia Effect is a phenomenon where individuals trust media information despite recognizing its inaccuracies in their areas of expertise.”

In this week's episode, we travel to Denmark and speak with author and long time marine biologist Hanne Strager about the incredible and dynamic predator the killer whale, or orca if you prefer. Hanne specializes in marine wildlife, specifically killer whales, and has recently published her new book titled, The Killer Whale Journals: Our Love and Fear of Orcas.  We wanted to speak with Hanne because we are keenly interested in the relationship humans have with predators and why killer whales have long been persecuted, misunderstood, and even demonised by humans, like MANY predators whether that be on land or sea. We think they are dynamic, highly intelligent, gorgeous, and captivating animals and Hanne tells us why! What an absolute honor to speak with Hanne. We steeped in her knowledge and experience and mostly her poignant insights on not only killer whales but also her view of the relationship we have with animals like killer whales and other powerful and intelligent predators.  Also, take a listen to this week's introduction to the episode and weigh in on whether my “joke” about killer whales is actually a joke, a riddle, or just a question! Jenn is most definitely unsure! Lols.  Lots of Love.

Our guest this week is Dr Deborah Benham, Biomimicry Educator, Transition Town Co-Lead Link and Deep Nature Connection facilitator - which puts her in a place to really unpick what it will take for us to depart the crumbling remains of late-stage capitalism and build a world based on connection, coherence and community. From her early days as a Marine Biologist, through her PhD on sea otters (I am not remotely envious of someone who gets to study sea otters for 3 years!), to her time in a community near Findhorn and now in a co-housing community in Dorset, Deborah's life has been oriented towards holding a vision of humanity as a helpful species on this planet. As you'll hear, she's the co-Lead Link for Transition Network, the charity which supports the international Transition towns movement; she's a trained Biomimicry Educator and with a background in Jon Young's Deep Nature Connection work, Deborah brings a practical, experiential lived and living toolkit that she shares and teaches - of how we can build thriving human societies, cultures, communities and businesses, designing with and as nature, creating mutual benefit for all life, using tech in life affirming ways, and uplifting justice, kindness and cooperation. We often reach an impasse where we know roughly what needs to happen, but don't have the conceptual or practical tools to bring it into being. Deborah has both - she's fully grounded in the theory of how communities of support, practice and place can come into being and she's teaching and living the practice. In fact - she's one of the core team creating the Nature Connection Camp from 4th - 10th August near Bedford in the UK so if you're around and want to experience the many ways we can weave the four threads she talks about, please hit the link in the show notes.

Join fictional marine biologist Emme as she embarks on a thrilling underwater adventure. Emme takes us deep into the ocean's mysterious depths, where she encounters an extraordinary octopus. Dive beneath the waves, where science meets the secrets of the sea.

The oceans are running out of fish. To slow down that problem, environmentalists pushed for fish farming or aquaculture. The problem is this industry became too big and too hungry. To fatten the farmed fish faster, they started feeding the high-protein pellets called fishmeal — made from massive amounts of fish caught at sea. Now, more than 30 percent of all marine life pulled from the sea feeds other fish in aquaculture farms inland. To explore this upside-down situation, we travel to the West African country of The Gambia for an offshore patrol where hundreds of Chinese and other fishing boats trawl for fishmeal production, cratering the local food source and polluting the coastline.

Unlocking the Mysteries of the Deep: Discovering the Astonishing World of Cephalopods with Marine Biologist Danna Staaf The Not Old Better Show, Smithsonian Associates Interview Series Welcome to another captivating episode of the Not Old Better Show, Smithsonian Associates Interview Series, on radio and podcast. I'm your host, bringing you yet another intriguing journey into the wonders of our world. Today, we're delving into the depths of the ocean! The ocean that is a realm teeming with mysteries and marvels. Today we have the immense pleasure of hosting Smithsonian Associate Danna Staaf, a renowned marine biologist and a celebrated author. Danna Staaf will be appearing at Smithsonian Associates coming up, please check out our website for more information, but we have Danna Staaf today. Danna's passion for the ocean began at the tender age of ten and has since blossomed into a lifelong quest to unravel the secrets of the deep. Her expertise? The enigmatic and extraordinary cephalopods - creatures like octopuses, squids, and cuttlefish, whose very existence challenges our understanding of life under the sea. These beings are not just fascinating; they are a testament to the incredible adaptability and intelligence of marine life. With their boneless bodies, multiple hearts, and the ability to change color and shape, cephalopods are nature's shapeshifters. But it's not just their physical attributes that are astonishing. Their problem-solving skills and curiosity mirror our own cognitive abilities, bridging a gap over 500 million years of evolutionary divergence. In our time with Danna Staaf today, we'll explore all that, including the evolution of these creatures, debunk myths, and uncover the truth behind their nine brains and blue blood. We'll understand their pivotal role in marine ecosystems and even touch upon their influence in the realm of science fiction. So, dear listeners, join us on this extraordinary journey as we dive into the depths of cephalopod evolution and discover what these incredible creatures can teach us about life, intelligence, and the mysteries of the natural world. Stay tuned for an episode that promises to be as enlightening as it is enthralling. My thanks to our guest today, Smithsonian Associate, Danna Staaf.  Danna Staaf will be appearing at Smithsonian Associates coming up, please check out our website for more information. My thanks to the Smithsonian team for all they do to support the show.  My thanks to you, our wonderful audience on radio and podcast.  Please be well, be safe, and Let's Talk About Better™ Not Old Better Show, Smithsonian Associates Interview Series, on radio and podcast.  Thanks everybody and we'll see you next week.
