In this message from Psalm 23, Pastor Bryan introduces us to the Good Shepherd revealed throughout Scripture. From the diagnosis of our need to the promise of God's pursuit in Ezekiel 34, we see the fulfillment in Jesus, the Shepherd who lays down His life for His sheep. Whether you feel lost, wounded, weary, or far from God, this message is a reminder that Jesus knows you personally and has come to lead, heal, and restore you. Watch, reflect, and share this message with someone who needs hope today.Scriptures Used:Psalm 23Ezekiel 34:4Ezekiel 34:11Ezekiel 34:15-16John 10:11Links:calvarymd.comcalvarymd.com/givefacebook.com/calvaryfrederick

Send us Fan MailOren Michels is an entrepreneur, investor, board member, and advisor to technology startups in the US and Europe. He is the co-founder and CEO of Barndoor AI, the control plane for agentic AI, and the founder who previously helped define the API management category with Mashery, acquired by Intel in 2013. He is also a Tony-nominated Broadway and Off-Broadway producer whose credits include Romeo+Juliet and Good Night, and Good Luck starring George Clooney.In this episode, Oren draws on two decades of building foundational infrastructure for the enterprise to make the case that governing AI agents is not a security problem. It is an entirely new category of problem, and most companies do not yet have the vocabulary to describe it, let alone the tools to solve it. If your agents can already write to your CRM, interpret your instructions, and act without life experience or fear of consequences, who is actually in control?In this conversation, we discuss:Why securing AI agents is entirely different from managing APIs, and why traditional security and identity access tools were never designed to handle what agents can do.The reason most so-called agentic AI is still glorified robotic process automation, and what it will actually take to unlock enterprise value.How Barndoor AI's "least privilege" framework for agents works, and why the permission logic goes far beyond the identity of the human using the tool.Why an agent with delete access to your CRM is one probabilistic misfire away from a catastrophic outcome, and why ultimate responsibility always comes back to the humans operating the tools.The BYO AI parallel to BYOD: why well-meaning employees using personal AI tools with company data may force the enterprise governance moment no one is ready for.Why the same instinct that took Oren from API infrastructure to Broadway and back to enterprise AI may be exactly the mindset the agentic era demands from its builders.Explore this conversation:00:00 Intro and fun Fact03:46 Oren Michels's Path From API Management to Building Barndoor AI05:44 Redefining Trust: AI Lacks Life Experience and Fear of Consequences08:24 History Repeating: Why AI Needs a Control Plane Just Like APIs Did12:35 Deterministic APIs vs. Probabilistic Agents: Why Governing AI Is a Social Challenge18:25 How Barndoor AI's "Least Privilege" Framework for Agents Actually Works20:50 The Token Economy and Context Windows: Wandering Into the AI Home Depot25:25 Preventing Catastrophic Failures: Why AI Agents Should Never Have Delete Access31:39 The BlackBerry Moment of AI: Navigating the "BYO AI" Enterprise Trend38:04 Balancing Tech and Creativity: From Enterprise AI to Producing on BroadwayResourcesSubscribe to the AI & The Future of Work NewsletterConnect with Oren on LinkedInAI fun fact articleOn How AI may eliminate jobs: what the data reveals

Rajiv talks with Oren Michels about why enterprise AI ROI stalls when tools live in chat and stay stuck in read-only mode. We break down how a control plane for AI agents enables safe write access across SaaS and internal systems while keeping governance tight.• chat interfaces working for developers but not for most business roles• connectivity and trust as the core blockers to enterprise AI adoption• one control plane to manage many AI models and agent tools• task-level guardrails that limit what each agent can do• a concrete write-access workflow across Google Sheets, email, and Salesforce• scaling protections like rate limiting, token spend controls, and activity logs• MCP as a way to expose a safe subset of API capabilities to an LLM• least privilege for agents with gradual permission expansion over time• moving from identity-based access to intent and context-based policies• Venn.ai as a single-user on-ramp to governed automation• Broadway business history in the Spark Tank and why creative structure matters• lessons from selling Mashery to Intel and operating inside a zero-failure culture• founder advice on execution and choosing co-founders wiselyAI looks magical in a demo, then it hits the enterprise and the ROI mysteriously evaporates. The gap is not model quality, it is operations: most companies trap AI in chat, strip away connectivity, and keep it read-only because write access feels too risky. That is how you end up with polished summaries instead of real work getting done.We sit down with Oren Michels, founder of Barndoor AI and former CEO of API management pioneer Mashery (acquired by Intel), to unpack what it takes to run an agentic workforce safely. We dig into the idea of an enterprise AI control plane that lets teams pick the best agents and models while centralizing governance, visibility, and policy. Oren shares why “least privilege” matters more for probabilistic AI agents than it does for trusted humans, how Model Context Protocol (MCP) can expose safe tool capabilities, and why CISOs want governance outside of the AI vendor's app.You will also hear concrete examples of high-ROI write access workflows, like pulling context from Gmail and Google Sheets, checking Salesforce, updating records, and drafting follow-ups in minutes. We explore scaling issues such as rate limiting, LLM token spend, and audit logs, plus a crucial architectural shift from identity-based access (“who are you”) to intent-based access (“what are you trying to do”). Oren also explains why Venn.ai exists as a lower-risk way to build trust with agentic automation before the full enterprise rollout.If you like practical enterprise AI, AI governance, security for AI agents, and real agentic workflows that move the business forward, subscribe, share this with a teammate, and leave a review so more builders can find the show.Oren Michels: https://www.linkedin.com/in/omichels/Oren Michels is the Co-founder and CEO of Barndoor AI, a company building the control plane for agentic AI to safely manage and govern how AI agents interact with corporate systems.

David Danto and Dave Michels of TalkingPointz joined Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, for a discussion recorded at the Enterprise Connect conference, where they reflected on the major forces reshaping enterprise communications, collaboration platforms, and the growing influence of AI. The analysts noted that while artificial intelligence dominated the conversation at Enterprise Connect, the real challenge for enterprises is turning AI from a headline into a practical business tool. Organizations are experimenting with AI across collaboration platforms and contact centers, but many are still determining how to deploy it effectively. As Danto observed, “The industry is moving quickly toward AI-enabled communications, but enterprises still need to figure out how to apply it in ways that deliver measurable business value.” Michels added that the communications ecosystem continues to grow more complex as enterprises evaluate multiple cloud platforms, integrations, and emerging capabilities. “Companies aren't just choosing a phone system anymore,” Michels explained. “They're choosing an entire communications ecosystem that has to integrate with business applications and support evolving workplace needs.” The discussion also highlighted the role of industry gatherings like Enterprise Connect in helping enterprises and technology providers evaluate these changes. Events bring together analysts, vendors, and enterprise leaders to assess emerging technologies and understand how they fit into broader IT and collaboration strategies. As enterprise communications continues to evolve through cloud platforms, AI, and new collaboration models, insights from TalkingPointz analysts like Danto and Michels help organizations navigate a rapidly shifting landscape and make more informed technology decisions.

What if getting injured was the best thing that ever happened to your career? Julia Michels is a Grammy-winning music supervisor whose work on A Star Is Born, Pitch Perfect, and The Devil Wears Prada has generated over $2 billion in ticket sales—but she went to IU for sports science and drove to LA in a Toyota Tercel to dance in music videos.From teaching aerobics to running into elevators for mentorship moments to bringing Bradley Cooper's midnight song to set, Julia reveals why saying yes before knowing how built her entire career, why there's enough work for everybody, and how her gymnastics-trained drive became a philosophy: be resourceful, resilient, and respectful.Sometimes the craving that heals you is the one that heals the world.

In this conversation, Jesse Michels joins me to explore a question that's becoming harder to dismiss: what if the phenomenon we call UFOs points to something real—and we don't yet know what it is? Rather than arguing for belief or disbelief, this episode is an invitation to curiosity, careful inquiry, and intellectual honesty about the limits of our current understanding.We examine historical UFO encounters near nuclear sites, government secrecy, and the growing body of anomalies that don't sit comfortably within a purely materialist worldview. This is a conversation about staying grounded while remaining open. About asking better questions. And about whether phenomena like UFOs, non-human intelligence, or something we haven't yet named might be nudging us to expand how we think about reality, consciousness, and our place in the universe.Momentous: Best Creatine in the gamehttps://livemomentous.com[Use code KNOWTHYSELF for up to 35% off]BONCHARGE - 15% off red light therapy products I personally usehttps://www.boncharge.com/knowthyself[Code: KNOWTHYSELF]André's Book Recs: https://www.knowthyselfpodcast.com/book-list___________00:00 Intro06:36 Questioning the Nature of Reality09:18 A Timeline of Non-Human Intelligence Evidence23:37 Why Nuclear Sites Attract Attention31:55 Extraordinary Claims, Extraordinary Evidence40:29 Ad: Momentous41:51 Letting Go of Human-Centric Thinking47:49 Studying Claims Without Dismissing People58:58 Non-Human Biologics and Physical Evidence1:06:10 Ad: Boncharge1:07:25 What May Have Been Quietly Explored1:18:55 The Hidden Branch of Physics1:26:38 Reframing Aliens Through Consciousness1:33:33 Grays, Nordics, and Reptilians Explained1:40:10 Why We Don't See Reality Directly1:53:58 Glimpses Outside Linear Time1:58:44 Why Aliens Look Strangely Human2:07:32 Shared Phenomena in Altered States2:15:32 Jesse's Personal UFO Experiences2:23:35 The Monolith as a Metaphor2:29:07 The Problem With Visual Proof2:35:24 What Is Actually Happening?2:46:47 Voices Worth Listening To2:51:22 What Would You Ask an Alien?2:53:19 Closing Thoughts___________Episode Resources: https://www.youtube.com/Jessemichelshttps://www.instagram.com/jessemichelsofficial/https://www.instagram.com/andreduqum/https://www.instagram.com/knowthyself/https://www.youtube.com/@knowthyselfpodcasthttps://www.knowthyselfpodcast.com

Klubbekriget i Finland åren 1596-97 är ett av de största bondeupproret i nordisk historia. I ett land med bara 25 000 gårdar dödades minst 2500 bönder, enligt historikern Heikki Ylikangas. Dessutom svalt många bönder ihjäl efter att deras gårdar grundligt plundrats som straff för upproret. I slutet på 1500-talet var den östra rikshalvan av Sverige präglat av kriget mot Ryssland som pågått i 25 år. Här gick den starkes rätt gick före lagen. Ofta var de egna truppernas övergrepp mot befolkningen mer omfattande än fiendernas härjningståg. I denna repris av avsnitt 102 av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med Martin Hårdstedt som är professor i historia vid Umeå universitet. Han har bland annat skrivit Finlands svenska historia. Klubbekrigets utlösande faktor var att bönderna i Österbotten tvingades att underhålla trupper i strid mot tidigare förordningar, men bör ses i ett sammanhang där högt skatteuttag tillsammans med olagliga uttag och regelrätt plundring gjorde livet outhärdligt för bönderna. Namnet Klubbekriget kom från att bönderna delvis var beväpnade med stora klubbor som faktiskt var det bästa vapnet mot bepansrade ryttare. Finland som styrdes av den kungatrogne Klas Flemming, var i kölvattnet på det nordiska 25-årskriget mot Ryssland, präglat av laglöshet där adel, ämbetsmän och rusthållare inte bara hänsynslöst drev in höga skatter utan drev in mer än vad lagen krävde med falska mått och regelrätta rån av redan utfattiga bönder. Upproret, som spred sig från Österbotten år 1596, hade föregåtts av en rad oroligheter i Österbottens svenskbygder och i Rautalampi storsocken som slagits ned utan misskund. Klubbekriget utspelade sig mot en politisk bakgrund där Hertig Karl integrerade om kungamakten mot sin egen brorson kung Sigismund. Finlands ståthållare Klas Flemming höll Finland i ett järnbrepp och var trogen kung Sigismund. I november 1596 kom det till oroligheter vid Storkyro kyrka, varefter bönderna uppdelade på tre avdelningar ryckte mot söder. Till upprorsstyrkorna slöt sig bönder från norra Tavastland och Savolax. Huvudstyrkan, anförd av storbonden Jaakko Ilkka, led nederlag vid Nokia gård 31/12, medan andra drabbningar, som även slutade med knektarnas seger, stod vid Padasjoki kyrka i Tavastland och S:t Michels prästgård i Savolax.

This week's Open Mic guest is Tom Michels, Director of Government Affairs for United Airlines. Global aviation fuel demand is near 100 billion gallons annually and farmers can play a crucial role in producing renewable fuels for a portion of that demand. United Airlines continues to not only consume but invest in sustainable aviation fuels. Michels says the market shows tremendous opportunity to lower the environmental footprint for the airline industry while providing sustainable solutions for airline carriers, but federal and state policies have substantial impact on the outcome.

At the Wildix Partner Day in Venice, Technology Reseller News Publisher Doug Green sat down with industry analyst Dave Michels to discuss his impressions of Wildix's first-ever analyst event and what it reveals about the future of UCaaS, AI, and the channel. Michels, a respected voice in enterprise communications and author of TalkingPointz, described the event as “a real look inside a company that's not just talking about digital transformation — they're living it.” “Wildix zigs where everyone else zags,” Michels said. “They've built a single-tenant UCaaS architecture for the cloud — something almost nobody else is doing — and it's full of advantages. Customers don't care if it's multi-tenant or single-tenant; they care about flexibility, data residency, and performance. Wildix has figured that out.” Michels noted that Wildix's 100% remote workforce and decentralized culture reflect the flexibility it delivers to customers. “They actually practice what they preach,” he said. “They've built a distributed organization that uses their own tools every day, and that authenticity shows through.” A key differentiator discussed was Wildix's hardware-integrated UCaaS ecosystem, including x-hoppers — an AI-enabled communications platform for retail and frontline workers — and x-bees, designed for knowledge workers and collaboration. “The x-hoppers headset is a perfect example of applied AI — it's connected, voice-activated, and aware of business workflows,” Michels observed. “If a shelf runs out of stock, it can alert staff automatically. It's an intelligent, practical use of AI that drives immediate ROI.” Looking ahead to 2026, Michels said that AI is reshaping every part of the communications stack — and that this shift favors channel partners. “AI is the magic drug right now,” he explained. “But to really leverage AI, companies need expertise — and that's coming back to the channel. We're seeing a major swing toward partners because they know how to implement, customize, and deliver these complex, outcome-driven solutions.” Michels concluded that Wildix's approach — flexible deployment options, integrated AI, and strong partner alignment — mirrors where the entire industry is heading: toward configurable, outcome-focused communications.

At the Crexendo UGM, Dave Michels, Principal Analyst & Founder of TalkingPointz, sat down with Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, to unpack “UCaaS Mobility 3” — a pragmatic, mobile-first model that moves enterprise calling from over-the-top apps to the cellular layer itself. Michels framed three generations of UCaaS mobility. Mobility 1 (find-me/follow-me) forwarded calls but split voicemail and caller ID. Mobility 2 (OTT softphone apps) worked well on strong internet — but faltered in truly mobile conditions (highway handoffs, variable coverage), pushing users back to personal cell numbers. Mobility 3 fixes this by placing the enterprise line on the SIM/eSIM: users choose business or personal at dial time, and enterprise calls ride native cellular voice for reliability, with full logging, recording, and policy control. The result: intuitive smartphone use (native dialer/contacts), optional UCaaS app, and clean work/personal separation without MDM intrusiveness. Michels highlighted why this matters now: Reliability on the move: Native cellular voice eliminates OTT fragility in transit. Compliance & CX: Enterprise calls and texts are captured and governed (finance, healthcare, education), and contact centers can transfer to subject-matter experts without losing recording/analytics. Frontline & deskless workers: Mobility-first roles (e.g., field services) can finally get enterprise-grade mobile that “just works.” Simplicity for IT & MSPs: One number can move across hard phone, soft client, and smartphone; less training and fewer behavior changes. Carrier convergence: With MVNO models (e.g., Crexendo's newly announced Xtend approach), service providers can bundle meetings, UCaaS, messaging, calling, and cellular — even globally — under a single brand and bill. Looking forward, Michels envisions “no more softphones” for many roles: users keep one phone, one dialer, two identities (business/personal), and enterprises preserve governance and data for AI-assisted analytics. For MSPs and resellers at UGM, the message was clear: Mobility 3 is a near-term, standard approach that elevates UCaaS into true mobile telephony, expands deal size and stickiness, and opens regulated and frontline segments.

Financial Planning Inspired by Divorce Dr. Nick opens up about his family's financial struggles after his parents' divorce, and how those early hardships shaped his mission to become a financial planner. Watching his mother juggle multiple jobs gave him the drive to help others avoid similar pain. Having walked through divorce myself, I connected deeply with his story and the importance of financial clarity during life's toughest moments. The Power of Compounding and Clear Goals We also talk about redefining financial priorities and how even small, consistent steps add up through the magic of compound interest. Dr. Nick recalls being introduced to the concept at 16 by a golf course owner named Rex—an experience that ultimately launched his career in finance. Lessons from the Golf Course Our conversation turned to the lessons you can pick up from unexpected places—like working at a golf course. For me, it was a front-row seat to observe how wealthier individuals handled themselves, and a reminder that humility in tasks like picking up garbage can lead to life-changing opportunities. Mindset and the Success Journey Mindset is everything. Dr. Nick and I discussed how money matters, but intentional living and meaningful relationships are what create lasting fulfillment. We explored the balance between career satisfaction, financial stability, and well-being—emphasizing that true success isn't measured solely in dollars. Aligning Happiness with Financial Goals One of the biggest takeaways from our conversation is that happiness looks different for everyone. Aligning your financial plan with your unique values and goals is essential. Dr. Nick warned about the trap of social media comparisons, reminding us that joy doesn't come from external approval but from understanding what really matters to you. Rethinking Retirement We also unpacked modern retirement. It's no longer about quitting work altogether—it's about creating space for consulting, passion projects, or part-time work. Both Dr. Nick and I agree that knowing yourself and planning ahead can help avoid impulsive decisions and ensure a fulfilling later chapter in life. Understanding Financial Values Through Reflection Dr. Nick's book is designed to help readers identify their strengths, weaknesses, and money stressors through reflection. By connecting financial strategies to core values, readers can create a more intentional and fulfilling financial plan. He even offers a free downloadable chapter on compounding at richbychoicebook.com. I strongly encourage you to grab it, dive into the exercises, and start clarifying your own path to financial freedom. Dr. Nicholas Michels knows what it's like to start with nothing. Growing up in a trailer park, he charted an extraordinary journey — becoming a professional athlete, bestselling author, and one of the most trusted voices in wealth and life planning. As Founder of Michels Family Financial and creator of the Rich by Choice movement, Nicholas has spent more than 20 years guiding thousands toward lasting stability, confidence, and peace of mind. His approach goes far beyond spreadsheets — blending behavioral psychology, faith-based principles, and practical financial strategies to help families design lives rooted in purpose and values. Before launching his firm, Nicholas played professional basketball overseas and earned elite credentials including CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ and CERTIFIED PRIVATE WEALTH ADVISOR®. Today, his Amazon bestselling book Rich by Choice has inspired readers worldwide, and his voice has been featured in major media as a passionate advocate for financial literacy, mindset growth, and values-driven success. Signature Speaking Topics: Financial Happiness: Why peace matters more than portfolio size The $8 Million Lesson: Walking away from the deal that didn't align with the mission Marriage & Money: Turning conflict into deeper connection If you're looking for a conversation that inspires action, challenges old money stories, and leaves people empowered to build wealth and a meaningful life — Nicholas delivers every time.

The sociologist Michels wrote about the "iron laws of oligarchy." Those, he said, who take up a noble cause naturally tend to protect their position at the cost of the noble cause over time. And that's why political movements that are well-intentioned, people who take office, who may be well-intentioned—although it's probably hard to find one these days—tend to then change the way they see their job and try to consolidate power more and more rather than do their work. There's no replacement for maturity and enlightenment. We can't manage it out of the system. Devotees have to be detached. vāsudēve bhagavati bhakti-yogaḥ prayōjitaḥ janayaty āśu vairāgyaṁ jñānaṁ ca yad ahaitukam (SB 1.2.7) When you practice devotional service, you'll naturally get a sense of detachment and knowledge, which will make you more flexible and so forth. My experience in being part of a community is that management means solving problems. Problems come from people, personal interaction. If I accept that that's the norm, even amongst devotees, then I'm better equipped to face it and deal with it. The best way to deal with it, I've found, is patiently and through meticulous conversation. As Stephen Covey wrote in his book, The Seven Habits of Highly Successful People, "first seek to understand." It's easy enough to take a position and then say, "I want to protect my position." In fact, ISKCON Resolve, when they answer the phone, they say, "ISKCON Resolve. Get over it." I've used them a number of times, but I also talked to them deeply about what the methodologies are, what is behind all this. They said, "Try to understand people's circumstances, what's beneath the surface." And what I find to be solidifying in a community is the act of taking the time. Even in the most trying circumstances—I'm conflict-avoidant, it's my nature, but I have to face these issues and bring the parties together and then talk about it. I find that when there's the light of awareness through communication, then oftentimes we can come to an enlightened understanding together. And that's the greatest victory we can have in our communities. Talk about "boiling the milk"—really learning how to get along with one another, despite the fact that we come from different cultures and have different ways of seeing things, different gurus, and this and that. When we're able to come together and have a common understanding and appreciate one another's point of view and, for the sake of the higher good of the mission, we decide to cooperate one way or another—one of those is worth, I don't know, what do I want to compare it to? It's invaluable. And that's what really makes a community strong, is taking the time to do that. So the only remedy I've seen is to talk about it. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant

Episode 202: BPA OverviewWritten by Cameron Carlisle, MSIV, Ross University School of Medicine. Comments by Hector Arreaza, MD.You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice._____________________Arr: Welcome to another episode of Rio Bravo qWeek. My name is Hector Arreaza, I'm an associate program director and faculty in the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program. Today my co-host is Cameron Carlisle, who is a 4th-year medical student finishing his last rotation of med school. Welcome, Cameron, please introduce yourself.Arreaza: What are we talking about today, Cameron?Cam: Dr. Arreaza, did you know you're probably carrying around a chemical in your body that mimics estrogen? In fact, a 2004 CDC study found over 92% of Americans had detectable levels of Bisphenol A (BPA) in their urine. Today's topic is BPA.BPA is everywhere: receipts, water bottles, canned foods, baby bottles, and even our dental fillings. It's one of the most ubiquitous endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), which interferes with the body's hormone systems. That's why today's episode is about making the invisible visible. Our goals for today's podcast:Break down what BPA isShow how it affects the human bodyExplain how you and your patients can limit exposureEmpower both clinicians and the public with real, practical informationArreaza: Thanks for clarifying BPA today. It seems like we always have to learn about a new carcinogen or toxic substance that we are exposed to. I remember when I was a child, Yellow #5 became very concerning for the general public but it is still being used in our foods. So, it's good you are talking about this. What Is BPA?Cam: Bisphenol A (BPA) is an industrial chemical used since the 1950s, primarily in polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins. It makes plastic clear, and is often found in:Water bottlesCanned food liningsBaby bottles (pre-2012)Takeout containersCash register receiptsDental sealantsArreaza: So, I've seen the “BPA-free” labels many times, and today I'm glad you are going to shed some light about it.Cam: What's alarming is that BPA leaches out of these products, especially when exposed to heat, acidity, or repeated use. A Harvard study found that people who drank from plastic bottles for just one week had a 69% increase in urinary BPA levels (Carwile & Michels, 2009).Arreaza: That's a lot of people 69%. Section 3: What happens when BPA gets into our body? How BPA Works in the BodyCam: BPA is classified as an endocrine disruptor, meaning it can bind to estrogen receptors and mimic or block natural hormone functions.It affects:Reproductive systems (both male and female)NeurodevelopmentThyroid signalingPancreatic β-cell functionMetabolism and fat storageEven low-dose exposure can disrupt cellular function. BPA acts as a xenoestrogen (foreign estrogen) and has been shown to alter DNA methylation, leading to epigenetic changes that persist across generations (Manikkam et al., 2013).Arreaza: So, BPA can cause epigenetic changes that can be inherited. BPA can persist for generations in your offspring.BPA's Health Impacts – What the Research SaysHere's where it gets serious. Let's go system-by-system:1. Reproductive HealthFemales: Linked to PCOS, infertility, and early puberty (Peretz et al., 2014).Males: Reduced sperm count and motility; altered testosterone levels.2. Pregnancy and Birth OutcomesIncreased risk of preterm birth, gestational diabetes, and low birth weight (Snijder et al., 2013).Studies show BPA crosses the placenta, directly affecting the fetus.3. Neurological DevelopmentAssociated with ADHD, anxiety, and impaired executive function in children exposed in utero (Mustieles et al., 2015).4. Metabolism and DiabetesBPA exposure is linked to insulin resistance, obesity, and type 2 diabetes, even at low doses (Lang et al., 2008).5. CancerAnimal and human data link BPA to increased risk of breast and prostate cancer via estrogenic mechanisms.6. MortalityA 2020 JAMA study found individuals with higher BPA levels had a 49% increased risk of all-cause mortality compared to those with lower levels (Gao et al., 2020).Arreaza: You are scaring me. I wonder what my BPA level is in my blood. Actually, BPA can be detected in urine. This is the most common approach for population-level biomonitoring, because BPA and its metabolites are mostly excreted in urine. Studies have found that BPA is present in most people, even up to 85–99% in large cohorts. Cam: That's literally everyone. Sources of BPA ExposureLet's talk about things we use every day:Thermal receipts (like from Target or Starbucks): BPA can transfer onto your skin and be absorbed, especially if your hands are wet or lotioned.Canned soups: One study showed that eating canned soup daily for five days led to a 1000% increased urinary BPA levels (Carwile et al., 2011).Plastic water bottles left in the car on hot days or plastic food trays for microwaving = chemical leaching.Baby bottles and pacifiers (pre-2012): primary concern for newborns.Arreaza: So, Cameron, you were exposed to BPA as a baby.Cam: Here's the jaw-dropper: We ingest up to 5 grams of plastic per week, roughly the weight of a credit card (WWF, 2019; University of Newcastle). This includes microplastics like BPA, which enter through food, water, and air.Arreaza: So, it translates into 40 lbs of plastic in a lifetime, by age 70. What can we do as family physicians?Family Medicine and Preventive CareAs family physicians, we are at the frontlines of prevention. Our role includes:Anticipatory guidance: during prenatal visits, well-child visits, and chronic disease managementScreening opportunities: ask about storage habits, microwave use, and receipt handlingEnvironmental health counseling: AAFP recommends addressing endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) when relevant to a patient's concerns.It's not just about treating diabetes or obesity. It's about recognizing that environmental exposure may be a root cause.Arreaza: Prevention is my favorite topic!Cam: One helpful clinical practice:Arreaza: What else can we do to reduce BPA exposure?Practical Steps to Reduce BPAHere's what patients and doctors alike can do today:Switch to BPA-free products, but be careful, as replacements like BPS or BPF may also be harmful (Rochester & Bolden, 2015).Avoid microwaving or dishwashing plastic containers.Use digital receipts.Filter tap water using carbon filters, which can reduce microparticle ingestion.Choose fresh produce over canned goods when possible.Also, wash your hands after handling receipts, especially before eating or touching your face.Arreaza: What is our government doing to protect us?Public Health and Policy UpdatesRegulations are slowly catching up:The FDA banned BPA in baby bottles and sippy cups in 2012.The European Union has stricter limits, and France banned BPA in all food packaging in 2015.California's Proposition 65 requires BPA warning labels.Arreaza: Proposition 65, passed by direct voter initiative in 1986, “WARNING: This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.”Arreaza: The FDA is planning to phase out petroleum-based food dyes (certified color additives) from the American food supply – marking a significant milestone in the efforts to protect the public. Cam: Many products still contain BPA analogs (BPS, BPF), which are not yet well-regulated.This is where clinician advocacy matters, where we can guide public opinion and support legislative change.Arreaza: So, millions of pounds of toxic substances are produced by many industries in the US. As physicians, we have to stay informed and update our patients.Cameron: How can we wrap up this episode?Conclusion and TakeawaysBPA is a hormone disruptor hiding in plain sight.People are exposed to BPA every day, but small lifestyle changes can dramatically reduce it.Family medicine has a role in education, prevention, and advocacy.Let's all be part of the solution for our health and future generations. Stanley (tumblers) are not sponsoring this episode, and we did not receive any money from them. Arreaza: That's it for today's episode of Rio Bravo qWeek. If you enjoyed this episode, share it with a colleague or medical student who may need to know about BPA. I'm Dr. Arreaza, signing off.Cameron: Hopefully, in the future I will talk to you about more endocrine disrupting chemicals.

Patrick discusses Jesse Michels from American Achemy claiming on his most recent interview with Chris Williamson from Modern Wisdom, that there have been repeated attempts to silence him in the UFO space. He reveals what about....

Jesse Michels is a YouTuber and show host, exploring subjects like UFOs, consciousness, and reality. For nearly a century, UFOs have captured our imagination as one of humanity's greatest mysteries. Are they secret technology, alien visitors, or something else entirely? Who is behind them, what has been concealed, and what has been revealed about them? After decades of unanswered questions, are we any closer to uncovering the truth about these unknown objects in the sky?

The global economy stands at a crossroads as tariffs reshape international trade, and few understand these seismic shifts better than Bill Michels, returning to The Common Bridge with crucial insights on what's happening at our ports, in manufacturing, and throughout supply chains worldwide.Shipping containers sit idle at major ports like Los Angeles and Houston as businesses hesitate to import goods, unsure what tariffs they'll face. "Tariffs are breaking the shipping model," Michels explains. "We're not just paying more, we're seeing fewer goods shipped." This uncertainty creates a troubling ripple effect - customs backlogs delay product releases, truck drivers lose loads, and consumers face higher prices or empty shelves.Perhaps most provocative is Michels' assessment of reshoring manufacturing. While tariffs might indeed bring factories back to American soil, he forcefully challenges the notion this will create significant employment: "If I'm going to reinvest in a factory, it's going to be lights out, automated. I'm going to use robots that work 24-7, don't have union problems, and I'm not going to hire tons of people." He cites GE's billion-dollar automated factory and Taiwan Semiconductor's Arizona plant as examples of modern manufacturing that creates minimal jobs despite massive investment.The conversation takes fascinating detours into how AI is transforming business negotiations (Michels' company has developed negotiation-training avatars) and the complex interplay between immigration policies and economic outcomes. As agricultural workers face deportation amidst existing labor shortages, Michels warns we could see both inflation and reduced GDP as labor-intensive industries struggle to find workers.Join us for this thought-provoking discussion that cuts through political rhetoric to examine the real-world consequences of trade policies. Whether you're a business owner navigating supply chain disruptions or simply curious about how global trade impacts your daily life, this episode delivers crucial context for understanding our economic future.Support the showEngage the conversation on Substack at The Common Bridge!

In February of 1981, Roberta Michels-Hopkins, a 29-year-old mother of two, disappeared from Camden, New Jersey, without a trace. The story goes that she left her home, heading out to buy a pack of cigarettes, and never returned. Roberta's sister said she received a phone call from the man Roberta was in a relationship with, asking if she had seen or heard from Roberta. Her sister said that it was this phone call that prompted her sister to try to report Roberta missing. However, no official record of a missing persons report was filed until 41 years later. Roberta's sister was told that Roberta had the right to disappear if she wanted to, It was as if Roberta had vanished, slipping through the cracks of time, her name seemingly forgotten.Roberta's son, who was an infant at the time of her disappearance, spent much of his childhood in foster care, lost in a world without answers. Years later, he had a daughter named Trinity, who would unknowingly step into a mystery much larger than she could have imagined. In 2019, just for fun, Trinity sent a DNA sample to one of those commercial databases, never expecting it to lead her to the unsettling truth that her grandmother had vanished and, shockingly, that no one had been searching for her.What began as a simple curiosity soon became an obsession for Trinity. She dug deeper, uncovering a tangled web of unanswered questions and missing pieces. By 2022, she was able to ensure that Roberta's disappearance was finally acknowledged by law enforcement, officially reporting her grandmother as a missing person. But how did Roberta's story remain buried for so long? The mystery still lingers, and Trinity is determined to uncover the truth.If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Roberta Michels-Hopkins, please contact Detective Geoffrey Chiumento of the Cinnaminson Township Police Department at 856-829-6667, ext. 2075, or the New Jersey State Police Missing Persons Unit at 609-882-2000, ext. 2554.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramTwitterPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
