The Other Side of Midnight with Lionel dives deep into the "witches' brew" hiding in the American diet, lifting the "Norman Rockwell filter" on beloved foods. We expose the chemical cocktails in favorites like bacon and turkey, including known carcinogens like nitrosamines, hormone disruptors, antibiotics leading to "slow immune sabotage," and the sodium bomb. Lionel also tackles pervasive health myths: is the Mediterranean diet really the cure-all, or was it post-war starvation rations?. Discover why smoothies might sabotage your health, what the food industry hides under the phrase "natural flavor," and why quick-fix fads like methylene blue distract us from the poisons we ingest daily.

On this episode of the “Prison Pulpit” on the China Compass podcast I dive into what missionary pilot Kevin Rideout might be experiencing in Niger (or Timbuktu) after being kidnapped by Islamic extremists (but I repeat myself) last month, in the hopes that we will take time to "remember his chains" and intercede for him as Hebrews 13:3 teaches us to do....

Niamey is 500 miles north of the Atlantic Ocean (leap-frogging Benin) Niamey is in the south Sahara, 1500 miles from the Mediterranean and 2100 miles from Cairo Niger is about twice the size of Texas, 3x the size of California, and virtually the same as Peru Niamey has about a million people, and Niger as a whole 25 million Niger has both the highest birthrate in the world at 6.5, but also the highest infant mortality rate The child mortality rate (child deaths before age 5) is between 80 and 250 per 1,000 (1 in 4) Niger is such a basketcase that even China has trouble getting them to cooperate, despite throwing hundreds of millions (billions, really) of dollars their way!

Many diets claim to be good for you. But the Mediterranean diet rises to the top with its research-proven benefits: it's been shown to increase life expectancy; decrease risk for dementia; improve mental health and cognitive function; and lower the risk of heart disease for nearly every demographic. What is it that makes the diet so great? In this episode, host Samantha Laine Perfas discuss the Mediterranean diet with nutritional psychiatrist Uma Naidoo and Mediterranean diet expert Miguel Ángel Martínez-González about how people can make nutritional changes that work for them day to day.

With the Romans now in Anatolia, Antiochus III has only got so long to go before a major showdown. He tries his best to avoid it- mainly by attempting to bribe Scipio Africanus- but in the end, we are setting up for a showdown near Magnesia-by-Sipylus.Sources for this episode:Bevan (1966), The House of Seleucus (Vol. II).

Israeli-Turkish relations were dealt another blow when a Turkish court issued an arrest warrant on genocide charges against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other senior officials, a move strongly condemned by Israel. As bilateral relations deteriorate, Israel is stepping up defence cooperation with Turkey's rivals, Greece and the Republic of Cyprus. Turkey has ongoing territorial disputes with both – over maritime and airspace rights in the Aegean Sea, and the division of Cyprus following Turkey's 1974 invasion of the island. The Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus in the north of the island is recognised only by Turkey. Israeli Diaspora Minister Amichai Chikli claims Israel's deepening partnerships with Athens and Nicosia is aimed at countering the growing threat posed by the Turkish president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan. "The doctrine of Erdogan is extremely dangerous. It's extremely dangerous for Israel, and we see Erdogan's Turkey as the new Iran, nothing less. It's very dangerous for Cyprus and it's very dangerous for Greece," said Chikli. This month, Israeli and Greek warships held joint military exercises in the Eastern Mediterranean. The drill followed similar exercises by the country's air forces. While Ankara played a key role in bringing about a ceasefire in the Gaza war, tensions have continued. "We saw Turkey issuing arrest warrants against 37 high-level Israelis, but I think it also relates to the fact that the ceasefire is fragile. We are not entirely sure we are moving in a positive direction," said Gallia Lindenstrauss, an Israeli foreign policy specialist at the Institute for National Security Studies in Tel Aviv. Turkey ready to help rebuild Gaza, but tensions with Israel could be a barrier Defence talks However, Lindenstrauss claims the Gaza ceasefire has opened the door to an acceleration in deepening cooperation with Greece. "We see the ceasefire is definitely seen as the green light to proceed in cooperation. We see defence deals... serious defence deals are being discussed," she added. Israeli ministers visited Athens this month for defence talks. Israel has already sold Greece and Cyprus some of its most sophisticated weapons systems, causing alarm in Ankara. "We see an alignment of the Greek, Greek Cypriot [sic] and Israeli navies. One cannot deny the risk that this will embolden them [Greece and Cyprus]... with Israeli support,” said international relations professor Serhat Guvenc, of Istanbul's Kadir Has University. Cyprus could become an increasingly focal point for Turkish-Israeli rivalries, given its strategic location. The United Kingdom has two military bases on the island, with the United States having a presence on these. Turkey, meanwhile, has an air base in the soi-disant Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. "The island is like a static aircraft carrier; it can dominate the whole of the Middle East and Turkey as well," warns former Erdogan advisor Ilnur Cevik, who is now a journalist. "A fighter plane that lifts off from Cyprus can get to Ankara in 15 minutes maximum. Turkey wants the island to be a security zone for itself. Plus, the Turks have even thought about setting up a new naval and airbase." Turkey and Egypt's joint naval drill signals shifting Eastern Med alliances Turkey's recent purchases of Eurofighter jets, along with a missile development programme encompassing hypersonic and ballistic capabilities, are also fuelling Israeli concerns. "It's not clear why a status quo actor should have such a missile programme," said Israeli analyst Lindenstrauss. "For example, Israel doesn't have a missile programme despite the many threats it faces. I think middle and long-range missiles do suggest this is something more related to offensive intentions... I think all actors that have tense relations with Turkey are watching these developments," she added.  Turkish Cypriot vote could force shift in Erdogan's approach to divided island US influence US Ambassador to Turkey Tom Barrack sought to downplay tensions, dismissing any threat of conflict between Turkey and Israel. “Turkey and Israel will not be at war with each other. In my opinion, it's not going to happen. And you are going to get alignment from the Caspian Sea to the Mediterranean," he said, speaking at the International Institute for Strategic Studies Manama Dialogue, a Middle East security forum, on 1 November.  US President Donald Trump, who retains powerful influence over both governments, regional analysts suggest, could play a key role in managing, if not resolving tensions, given his goal of bringing peace and stability to the region. "[Washington] are very concerned. This is a topic that gets a lot of people's attention. The United States has certainly been trying to mediate and sort of bring tensions down,” said Asli Aydintasbas of the Washington-based Brookings Institution think tank. Guvenc doesn't rule out a reset in regional relations, but warns that for now the region remains in the grip of an escalating arms race, fuelilng further mistrust and the risky strategy of "my enemy's enemy is my friend". "We have partnerships – alliances of convenience, pragmatic, tactically motivated alliances – but you never know. I mean, Turkey and Israel may mend fences, and this may create a totally different strategic, regional geopolitics than the one we are talking about today. So everything is in flux, and the balances and the alliances may shift in a very short time."

Linking the Far East with the Mediterranean world, the Silk Road became history's most influential crossroads, shaping civilisations through trade, diplomacy and cultural encounter.From the imperial courts of China to the bustling markets of Rome, artistic, religious and cultural currents travelled these pathways – silk and spices, of course, but also ideas, technologies and beliefs.In this episode, we are joined by accomplished author, lecturer and cultural specialist Chris Aslan.

In this episode of Next Up, the team from Garland ISD—Craig Hempel, Jennifer Miller, and Chef Kevin Jenkins—breaksdown how they transformed one of Texas's largest districts into a model for freshly prepared, student-centered school meals. Their story immediately raises a powerful question: How can a district this size pull off scratch cooking at this scale? They share how their “Freshly Prepared” philosophy makes scratch cooking more approachable, supported by hands-onculinary training and simple recipe videos filmed on an iPad. The team also highlights their award-winning partnership with Action for Healthy Kids, their Healthy Meals Incentive Awards, and the creative dishes that students now love—from Cuban sandwiches to Mediterranean bowls. It sparks another thought:How does restaurant-quality creativity change the way students view school meals? Garland ISD's commitment to community engagement—through Menu Advisory Committee meetings, parent conversations, and strong social media presence—shows how transparency can turn critics into advocates. This episode offers inspiration and real strategies for anyone working in child nutrition, culinary leadership, or education who wants to see what's possible when a district fully commits tobetter food for kids.

Many of us know about someone who seemed perfectly healthy, and then one day, without warning, they had a cardiac event. No symptoms on the surface, and no sign their heart was struggling behind the scenes. We've been taught to think of sudden cardiac death as something random and unstoppable: a tragic event with no warning and no chance of prevention. But the truth is: up to 63% of sudden cardiac deaths could be avoided with simple, consistent lifestyle choices. Not pills or high-tech devices, just the way we live every day. That's the message buried inside the latest data that most people, including doctors, aren't talking about. Better cardiorespiratory fitness can outweigh the risk posed by obesity. A handful of nuts and a walk might protect you more than a statin ever could. Even your attitude, your sense of connection, your stress response, and your sleep can shift the odds in your favor. Yet most people still believe sudden cardiac events are just "bad luck" or genetics. They don't realize how much control they actually have. And when lifestyle is this powerful, the real question isn't "What's my risk?" It's "What can I do today to lower it?" In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Ronney Shantouf, a preventive cardiologist who bridges both sides of medicine: procedures that save lives in the moment, and lifestyle changes that prevent the crisis from ever happening.  We get into what actually lowers the risk of sudden cardiac death, and what most people get wrong about it. Things You'll Learn In This Episode Lifestyle can beat the odds Up to 40–63% of sudden cardiac deaths are preventable through behavior, not medication. So if genetics isn't destiny, what daily choices create the biggest impact? Not all exercise is equal Consistent, moderate activity dramatically lowers SCD risk. But sudden bursts of vigorous exercise? They can temporarily increase it. How do you train smarter, not just harder? Food isn't fuel, it's a signal Whether you're low-carb, plant-forward, or Mediterranean, one pattern wins: real, minimally processed food. What are the dietary patterns that protect your heart, and the ones that quietly push risk higher? Stress and sleep don't just affect heart health; they can trigger it Emotional stress can provoke dangerous spasms and arrhythmias. Poor sleep creates inflammatory conditions the heart can't hide from. How can we stop treating stress and sleep as "soft" lifestyle advice and see them as medical priorities?   About our Guest Dr. Ronney Shantouf, MD, is a Staff Physician at the Heart, Vascular & Thoracic Institute at Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi, where he serves in multiple leadership roles, including Director of the Cardiac Catheterization Lab, co-Director of the Complex Coronary Program, and co-Director of the Invasive Coronary Spasm and Microvascular Dysfunction Program. In addition to performing advanced interventional procedures, he oversees the Cardiac Wellness Program and specializes in cardiac prevention and advanced lipid management. Before joining Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi, Dr. Shantouf was a Health Sciences Assistant Clinical Professor of Medicine at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. There, he served as Director of the Cardiac Catheterization Lab at Olive View-UCLA Medical Center and chaired the Cardiology Education Course for the Internal Medicine Residency Program. Dr. Shantouf is triple-board certified in Internal Medicine, General Cardiology, and Interventional Cardiology. He earned his Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience and his Medical Degree from UCLA, graduating summa cum laude. He completed his Internal Medicine training at UCLA Medical Center, followed by a General Cardiology fellowship at Harbor-UCLA and an Interventional Cardiology fellowship at USC.

In this episode of Focus Forward, host Hannah Choi interviews Dr. Anastasia Galanopoulos, a developmental psychologist, about the fascinating connection between gut health and brain function. They explore how the gut microbiome communicates with the brain through the vagus nerve and affects everything from mood and sleep to focus and decision-making. The conversation covers signs of gut health imbalances, including digestive issues, irritability, and poor decision-making. Dr. Galanopoulos explains how fermented foods like kimchi, sauerkraut, and yogurt can help restore microbiome diversity, while processed foods and sugar can harm gut health. They discuss the importance of fiber, organic foods, and the Mediterranean diet approach that emphasizes plants, moderate animal protein, and social connection. The episode also touches on how outdoor time in green spaces can benefit those with ADHD and executive function challenges. Throughout the discussion, both hosts acknowledge the economic realities that make accessing healthy foods challenging for many families, while emphasizing that even small changes can make a meaningful difference.

Churchill's Spaniards: The Spanish Republicans Who Fought for Britain in WWII — with Sean F. Scullion In this episode, I speak with historian Sean F. Scullion, author of Churchill's Spaniards, about a remarkable and little-known story: the Spanish Republicans who escaped the fall of the Second Republic, endured internment under Vichy France, and later volunteered to fight in the British Army against fascism from 1940 to 1945. Drawing on multi-lingual archival work and over 110 family interviews, Scullion reconstructs the routes these veterans took—from the French Foreign Legion and North African labour camps to the Pioneer Corps, Commandos, SOE, and even the SAS—and explores why many kept fighting despite exile, wounds, and the bitter knowledge that Franco would survive the war.Scullion also discusses his research method (triangulating sources across British, French, and Spanish archives), the challenge of language barriers inside British units, the post-war lives of these men in Britain (including the Spanish Ex-Servicemen's Association and links with trade unions), and the complicated geopolitics surrounding Churchill's efforts to keep Spain out of the war.What we coverWho were “Churchill's Spaniards”? From Republican veterans to exiles who re-entered the fight under British command.Two waves of enlistment: 1940 (after service with French forces) and 1942–44 (after release from Vichy internment in North Africa).Across the theatres: Norway, North Africa, Italy, Greece, the Mediterranean, Western Europe— as far as Burma.Units and roles: From enlistment via the Pioneer Corps to transfers into infantry, Commandos, SOE, and the SAS (with c. 15 Spaniards serving in the SAS).Motivation and ideology: Anti-fascist commitment, complex politics (including anarchist backgrounds), and hopes—ultimately disappointed—that the Allies would remove Franco.After 1945: Settlement in Britain, union activism, campaigning against Franco's regime, and the memory-work of families today.About today's guestSean F. Scullion is a historian and serving British Army officer. A bilingual Spanish–English (and fluent French) researcher, he has spent nine years tracing this diaspora of Republican veterans and their wartime service under British command, combining multilingual archival research with a large and growing network of families across Britain, Spain, and France.Recommended readingSean F.
