We're racing back to 2001 for Rat Race. Is this an underrated comedy classic, or do you need some serious nostalgia for this kind of dumb, over-the-top slapstick to still work? Does the movie's decision to keep its foot on the gas for nearly two hours make it more entertaining, or eventually just exhausting? How the hell do these people commit so many felonies and never have the cops come looking for them? And did the Baja Men really think “Rat Race” was going to be their follow-up hit to “Who Let the Dogs Out”? Grab your locker key, stay the hell away from the squirrel lady, and remember: there are no rules.

How did a group of notoriously difficult French philosophers become intellectual rock stars on American college campuses — and how much do their ideas matter today?  In The Frenchmen, writer and editor Emily Eakin traces the unlikely rise of French theory and the thinkers who transformed how a generation understood language, truth, power, and identity. In this conversation with guest host Michael Kovnat, Emily explains why figures like Jacques Derrida and Michel Foucault became irresistible to students in the '70s and '80s, and how theory offered both intellectual sophistication and a new way to challenge the establishment. They explore how these ideas helped shape identity politics and our modern suspicion of institutions, why theory eventually fell out of fashion, and the scandals that accelerated its decline. Plus, Emily makes a surprising case for why the age of AI might prove some of the French theorists right.

Josh and Sam discuss why many churches have moved away from old-school hymns, not always because they reject them, but because worship culture has changed. Modern worship music is often easier to lead with a band, more familiar to younger generations, and shaped by digital platforms, conferences, and major worship publishers. But the disappearance of hymns can also come at a cost. Hymns often carry theological depth, congregational memory, and a sense of continuity with the broader church. In this episode, we discuss why hymns have faded in many churches and how leaders can reintroduce them wisely without turning worship into a generational battle. The post Why Don’t Churches Sing Old-School Hymns Anymore? appeared first on Church Answers.

For this Black Iron Prison Intercept, like any good Gnostic, I deconstruct and expose today's leading extraterrestrial models, based mostly on the excellent research of Kevin Cann and his book, UFOs and the Extra-Consciousness Hypothesis. Prepare to have all your conceptions of UFOs challenged to the point of no return. Say goodbye to Roswell, Kenneth Arnold, the Grays, Galactic Federations, and all that. Something has been interacting with human beings for thousands of years—and we still don't know what it is. The evidence is undeniable: radar returns, physical trace cases, mass witnessed events, and entity encounters that defy every conventional explanation we have. What we think we know about UFOs is almost certainly wrong, and the rabbit hole goes far deeper than bullshit governments, disclosure movements, or Hollywood have ever dared to suggest. The truth, it turns out, may not be out there at all — it may be in here. And the final truth, of course, is a Gnostic one. Kevin joined us for the member Q&A afterward, if he isn't abducted first.

Today on the best synth wave chat show there is Andy catches up with longtime pal and synthwave OG Mike Mendoza—aka Who-ha, Modern Knight, and the man behind Retro Promenade—for a sprawling conversation about creativity, nostalgia, and whether synthwave is dead or merely “no longer culturally ascendant.” They discuss Mike's return to making music, the satisfaction of learning your tools, AI-generated slop versus genuinely useful AI, and how new technology is helping them resurrect old projects. And it wouldn't be an episode of Beyond Synth without a bunch of complaining, video game talk, and general off topic silliness. The gentlemen also try and eulogize Tim Curry and Peter Cullen, but then that just becomes Andy talking about King Willy from Predator 2 which has nothing to do with anything.

Noah was far from perfect, but he was a humble man, and protective of his family. He stands out among fathers in the Bible as a man who remained loyal to God, in spite of the wickedness of the world around him.Doesn't that sound a lot like life today? Fathers who choose to follow a life of faith are surrounded by temptation and downright evil in this world, but God is pleased by our devotion, and He has a plan for each of us — even when circumstances are frustrating or difficult. Genesis 6:5–8 says, “The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time. The Lord regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled. So the Lord said, ‘I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created—and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground—for I regret that I have made them.' But Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord.”The Bible tells us Noah, father of Shem, Ham, and Japheth, was a righteous man, and walked faithfully with God. For this reason, God chose Noah to build an incredible boat – the ark – that would save not only mankind, but every variety of living creature on the earth — from peril.Sometimes fathers feel like their job is a thankless one. They tackle the honey-do list on weekends, help with dinner, keep the kids in line, and help to wrangle them at bedtime...and they don't hear “thank you,” or “great job,” often enough. But God knows everything you do for your family, from breadwinning to caretaking and everything in between, and He takes delight in your devotion to your family, and to Him.Deuteronomy 30:2–3 says, “And when you and your children return to the Lord your God and obey him with all your heart and with all your soul according to everything I command you today, then the Lord your God will restore your fortunes and have compassion on you and gather you again from all the nations where he scattered you.”Modern-day fathers can learn valuable lessons from Noah:God promises to bless and protect those who faithfully follow and obey him. A man who obeys the Lord will inspire faith in his children as well. Obedience is not a sprint but a marathon; It means a lifetime of faithful devotion, even (and especially!) when the going gets tough.Let's pray.Heavenly Father, thank you for calling out Noah's faithful obedience to you so many years ago, and for providing for the safety and provision of his entire family when the world had gone astray. Bless every father who hears this message, Lord, that they might grow closer in their walk with you, and inspire their children to follow in their footsteps. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world! Save 15% Off your entire purchase of faith-based apparel + gifts at Kerusso.com with code KDD15.

Enough: How Do You Know When You Have Enough?More is everywhere. But where is enough?Money. Work. Fitness. Achievement. Adventure. Information. Growth. Ambition.Modern life is remarkably good at telling us what to pursue, but much less interested in telling us when to stop.In this episode, Evan Sutter explores the idea of enough and why it might be one of the more difficult questions we can ask when thinking about a good life.Is enough a number? A feeling? A decision? Something we discover only after we've gone too far?And perhaps the more uncomfortable question:If we don't decide what enough means, who—or what—will decide it for us?The conversation continues the philosophical thread of recent episodes:Death: What matters?Attention: Where is my life actually going?Enough: When is it enough?Evan explores the tension between ambition and contentment, asking whether “more” is really the problem—or whether the more important question is more in service of what?Because building a business for freedom can eventually leave you with no freedom. Pursuing money for security can become an endless pursuit of more. And ambition that once served a meaningful life can quietly become the thing around which the entire life is organised.Perhaps knowing enough doesn't diminish ambition.Perhaps it frees ambition from desperation.And perhaps the real challenge is learning to recognise the difference between ambition and restlessness wearing ambition's clothes.Questions to sit withHow do you know when you've had enough?Enough work?Enough exercise?Enough information?Enough stress?Enough achievement?Enough people?Enough solitude?Enough ambition?And perhaps most importantly:Enough for what?Enough for whom?In this episode00:00 — What does “enough” actually mean? 02:00 — Why more doesn't tell us when to stop 04:00 — When the thing serving your life becomes the thing your life revolves around 06:00 — Enough, attention and awareness 08:00 — Is enough a form of freedom? 10:00 — Seasons and why enough keeps moving 12:00 — Who gets to define enough? 14:00 — Ambition vs. restlessness 16:00 — Can we trust the feeling of enough? 18:00 — So, how do you know?Timings are approximate Continue the conversationExplore more Field Notes, philosophy and reflections on ambition, aliveness, flourishing and the good life at EvanSutter.com.You can also download 42, Evan's free book of reflections and observations from 42 years alive.

Rebecca shares how she got her start in law enforcement communications, why storytelling matters in public safety, and how her team balances planned content with fast-moving breaking incidents. We talk about the shift toward short-form video, the importance of adapting content for different platforms, and why law enforcement agencies should stop treating social media like a press release dump. She also breaks down how audience feedback, analytics, and behind-the-scenes content shape their strategy, as well as how her team handles transparency, legal limits, and the growing role of AI. Her biggest takeaway: don't post and ghost — social media should be a conversation, not a broadcast.Rebecca's BIO: As the Public Affairs Specialist for the Orange County Sheriff's Department, she manages the department's digital presence, overseeing more than 90 social media accounts.

Long before trail cameras, mapping apps and advanced hunting electronics, successful deer hunters learned to read the woods. In this episode of DSC's Campfires with Larry Weishuhn, Larry welcomes renowned Master Maine Guide Randy Flannery for an in-depth conversation about the traditional art of tracking and stalking mature whitetail bucks. Randy is the owner and operator of Wilderness Escape Outfitters in northern Maine and a lifelong student of big-woods whitetails. Drawing from decades of experience, he explains that successful tracking involves much more than simply finding hoofprints and following them through the snow. A tracker must learn to interpret the animal's pace, direction, body language, habitat choices and likely destination. The conversation explores how hunters can judge whether a track belongs to a mature buck, recognize when a deer may be catchable, use changing wind and terrain to their advantage and avoid rushing into the very cover where a buck is likely to be waiting. At its heart, this episode is about preserving a form of woodsmanship that can only be developed through patience, observation and time spent in the field. How Randy was introduced to deer hunting and traditional woodsmanship Lessons passed down through generations of northern Maine hunters The difference between merely following a track and actually interpreting it How stride, track size and movement patterns can reveal clues about a buck Recognizing whether a track is fresh enough to pursue How to decide whether you are gaining ground or endlessly trailing a deer Why mature bucks frequently use terrain, cover and wind to protect themselves Reading feeding areas, bedding cover and natural travel corridors How snow conditions influence a tracking hunt The importance of slowing down as a hunter gets closer to the animal Why a tracker must constantly look ahead instead of staring only at the ground Using the wind without allowing it to dictate every decision How a buck may circle, pause or position itself to monitor what is following The role of patience, instinct and experience in closing the final distance Why map-and-compass knowledge remains an essential backcountry skill Making the first ethical shot opportunity count What modern hunters lose when technology replaces woodsmanship Randy's efforts to teach tracking and stalking skills to a new generation A deer track is not simply a mark in the ground. It is part of a constantly unfolding story. A knowledgeable tracker studies how far apart the tracks are, how deeply they penetrate the snow or soil, whether the deer was walking, feeding or moving with purpose, and how the surrounding habitat may influence its next move. Randy explains that the objective is not to keep your eyes locked on the individual prints. The hunter must periodically stop, raise their head and search the woods ahead. The buck—not the track—is the ultimate destination. No single measurement provides a perfect answer, but several clues can help a hunter make an educated judgment. A large track, wide stance, long stride and deliberate movement may suggest a mature animal. The way the deer navigates terrain, chooses cover and reacts to potential danger can provide additional information. Randy's approach emphasizes putting several clues together rather than relying on one isolated sign. One of the most important decisions a tracker makes is whether to continue following a particular animal. Weather, snow conditions, the freshness of the track, the deer's pace and the hunter's ability all help determine whether the pursuit is realistic. A buck that is feeding or moving naturally may eventually offer an opportunity. A deer that has been seriously alarmed may continue putting distance between itself and the hunter. The tracker must continually evaluate the sign and be willing to adjust—or abandon—the pursuit when the evidence calls for it. Finding a track may be the easy part. Closing the final distance requires discipline. As the sign becomes fresher, the hunter must become increasingly careful. Every step, sound and shift in wind direction matters. Mature bucks often stop, circle or select bedding locations that allow them to detect approaching danger. Success comes from resisting the urge to hurry and carefully examining every opening, shadow and piece of cover ahead. Modern hunting technology can be useful, but Randy cautions against allowing equipment to replace foundational outdoor skills. Knowing how to navigate, understand terrain, interpret animal sign, anticipate behavior and remain safe in remote country creates a more capable and self-reliant hunter. Randy's tracking and stalking schools at Wilderness Escape Outfitters are designed to preserve these traditional skills through practical, boots-on-the-ground instruction in the Maine woods. (Wilderness Escape) The best deer trackers do not simply follow where a buck has been. They study the evidence, anticipate where the animal is going and understand why it is making each move. Becoming that kind of hunter requires patience, humility and a willingness to learn something every time you enter the woods. Randy Flannery is a Master Maine Guide, seminar speaker, traditional whitetail tracker and owner of Wilderness Escape Outfitters near Danforth, Maine. Randy learned the fundamentals of tracking and stalking from his grandfather and uncles while growing up in the northern Maine woods. He has spent decades guiding hunters and teaching the practical woodsmanship required to pursue mature whitetails in remote wilderness country. (Springfield Sportsmen's Show) Wilderness Escape Outfitters is a four-season sporting camp located on Upper Hot Brook Lake. In addition to its tracking and stalking schools, the operation offers hunting, fishing, paddling, winter recreation, lodging and family wilderness experiences.

Understanding the story it tells takes a lifetime. Master Maine Guide Randy Flannery joins Larry Weishuhn for an in-depth conversation about tracking and stalking mature big-woods whitetails. Learn how experienced trackers interpret tracks, wind, terrain and deer behavior—and why patience may be the most important piece of hunting equipment you carry.

CAPTION 1923 TREASURY BUILDINGHidden Fiscal Challenges Facing Modern EconomiesJoseph Sternberg warns Americans about the hidden burdens of a Value Added Tax (VAT), a consumption tax common in Europe. Although pitched as simple, Sternberg argues that this tax creates immense compliance burdens for small businesses, requiring a full working week annually to administer. This complexity fosters a cash-based gray market to evade the tax. Furthermore, because the tax is concealed within product prices rather than added at checkout, politicians can easily hike rates without public outcry. Sternberg also contrasts Europe's expensive, highly regulated data center shortage with America's resistance to building the AI infrastructure crucial for its economic future. (3)

Balaam presents one of Scripture's most sobering examples of supernatural gifting separated from godly character.  He could encounter genuine supernatural revelation.  He could speak words God placed in his mouth.  He even delivered a remarkable prophecy concerning the coming Messiah.  Yet Balaam's supernatural experiences did not transform his character.  His heart remained vulnerable to money, honor, influence, compromise, and access to kings.  That creates a critical warning for the Church today: ·      Prophetic accuracy does not necessarily equal divine approval. ·      Supernatural power does not equal holiness. ·      Revelation does not equal character. ·      Gifting does not equal maturity. ·      Anointing does not equal obedience. Jesus taught that fruit remains essential in discerning spiritual ministry. In KIB 547, Dr. Michael Lake and Mary Lou Lake undertake a biblical examination of Balaam and discover that the New Testament gives us three powerful categories for understanding prophetic corruption: THE WAY OF BALAAM — 2 Peter 2:15 THE ERROR OF BALAAM — Jude 1:11 THE DOCTRINE OF BALAAM — Revelation 2:14 Together, these passages provide a biblical framework for evaluating modern prophetic ministry. The episode examines how genuine or claimed spiritual gifting can become corrupted when joined with covetousness, ambition, political influence, celebrity, sexual compromise, financial manipulation, and the commercialization of spiritual authority. One of the deepest theological observations in the episode is this: Balaam wanted God's power without God's government. That same temptation remains possible today: ·      Prophecy without holiness. ·      Power without obedience. ·      Gifts without character. ·      Authority without accountability. ·      Revelation without Scripture. ·      Anointing without crucifying the flesh. ·      Kingdom authority without submission to the King. True biblical prophetic ministry cannot be separated from covenant faithfulness and obedience. THE WAY OF BALAAM Second Peter 2:15 identifies Balaam as one "who loved gain from wrongdoing." ·      The problem is not legitimate financial support for ministry. ·      The danger begins when money starts influencing ministry. ·      When access to a prophet is sold. ·      When prophetic words become commodities. ·      When larger offerings produce more favorable prophecies. ·      When invitations, platforms, donors, and political connections begin determining what a minister will—or will not—say. ·      At that point, the gift is being monetized. Biblical ministry may receive support, but God's gifts must never become merchandise. THE ERROR OF BALAAM Jude 1:11 exposes another dimension. A minister can begin assuming that because supernatural manifestations continue, God must approve of the minister's character and conduct. Balaam destroys that assumption. Something supernatural happening does not prove that God approves of the vessel. The question must move beyond: "Was the prophecy accurate?" We must also ask: ·      Does the ministry exalt Jesus Christ? ·      Does it submit prophetic claims to Scripture? ·      Does it produce holiness and repentance? ·      Does it strengthen covenant faithfulness? ·      Is there humility? ·      Is there financial and sexual integrity? ·      Is there meaningful accountability? ·      Are failed predictions acknowledged? ·      Does the ministry create dependence upon Christ—or dependence upon the prophet? ·      Does it produce mature disciples—or prophetic consumers? And perhaps one of the most important questions: Will the prophet speak the truth when doing so could cost the prophet money, popularity, political access, followers, conference invitations, or the entire platform? The episode contrasts Balaam with Micaiah, who was willing to suffer rather than alter the word God had given him. THE DOCTRINE OF BALAAM Revelation 2:14 takes the warning even further. Personal corruption eventually becomes doctrine. Balaam discovered that he could not directly curse the people God had blessed. Instead, Israel was enticed into idolatry and sexual immorality. The pattern becomes: ·      Gift ·      Revelation ·      Opportunity ·      Desire for reward ·      Compromise ·      Rationalization ·      Prophetic corruption ·      Teaching others to compromise ·      Covenantal judgment The compromised minister eventually becomes an architect of compromise in others. DON'T THROW OUT THE TRUE BECAUSE OF THE FALSE This episode is not an argument for rejecting biblical prophetic ministry. Quite the opposite. The existence of counterfeit ministry makes biblical discernment even more important. Jesus places the doctrine of Balaam inside the Church in Revelation 2:14. The warning to Pergamum therefore provides a serious pattern for examining what the Church tolerates. The answer is not cynicism. The answer is testing. "Prove all things." Return everything to Scripture. Reject the false. Hold fast to what is good. And allow God to restore genuine biblical ministry. The closing message of KIB 547 is ultimately one of hope: God is preparing His remnant, exposing what is false, and calling His people back to Christ, His Kingdom, His Word, holiness, and covenant faithfulness.

#145Josh sits down with chef, restaurateur, author, and television pioneer Rocco DiSpirito for a wide-ranging conversation about how dramatically the path of a chef has changed. Recorded at Bar Rocco, the episode begins with Josh realizing that Rocco actually judged a cooking competition he entered 25 years ago, before the two revisit their shared connection to legendary chef Gray Kunz. Rocco traces his own path from earning 50 cents an hour at a Queens pizzeria to culinary school, Europe, Lespinasse, Union Pacific, television, health and wellness, and eventually back into restaurants. Along the way, they unpack what young cooks once had to endure to gain access to culinary knowledge and whether today's chefs really need the same years of repetition and classical training now that so much information is instantly available online.  Rocco and Josh also get into the realities of building a sustainable career as a chef, from why great food alone may no longer be enough to why Rocco's former business partner taught him to balance "perfecting" with "promoting." They discuss social media, chef IP, restaurant ownership, licensing and management deals, and why Rocco believes younger chefs shouldn't become overly protective of a name or trademark. Rocco shares how triathlon training transformed his approach to health and led to nine health and wellness books, names some of the cookbooks that shaped him, and gets deep into the technique behind cooking with black truffles. The conversation closes with what's ahead: more Bar Rocco, a new book blending recipes and stories, his work with CookUnity, and, above all, a desire to keep cooking.  Links and resources

Welcome back to another episode of Fratello On Air! This week, we're both back in our respective homes before traveling again. Our show is about modern watches destined to become classics. Now, before you accuse us of focusing on money, erase those thoughts! We don't care about value. No, we are talking about watches that will be interesting several decades from now.Predicting the future is difficult, but we're here to try! This week, we're focused on modern watches that will command respect in the coming decades. As you'll see, we have some caveats. We chose relatively affordable pieces instead of haute horlogerie models. And we both chose three, for a total of six watches. We hope you enjoy the show!HandgelenkskontrolleWe kick off our show with a bit of travel talk, but we quickly shift to the screen. Shows including I Will Find You, Lanterns, DTF St. Louis, and Half Man get mentions. Then, Balazs brings up an upcoming auction for the 1998 Game 3 NBA Finals jersey from Michael Jordan. It's listed on Joopiter and will be up for auction with an estimate of $10 to $15 million! We end our banter with a mention of Instagram user @dewesyy, who is filming the cobbling together of a Porsche 911 Targa from two rough beaters. For the Handgelenkskontrolle, Mike is wearing his trusty Rolex Submariner 14060M from 2011. Balazs is sporting his Ming 22.01 GMT Kyoto.The modern watches we'll still be talking about in 20 yearsWe kick off our main topic by mentioning the one and only Bvlgari Octo Finissimo. While this watch may not fit every wrist, it's a stunning object. Perhaps Bvlgari will never take this watch out of production, or maybe it will evolve into something different. Still, there's no denying that the current watches are arresting. We think they'll still be grabbing attention in the long run.For Mike's first pick, the original 42mm Tudor Pelagos in black, blue, or LHD still stands out as a landmark watch. More than the Black Bay, these were non-retro releases and were the first titanium "Rolex." Aside from moving to an in-house caliber, the watch has barely changed since its 2012 debut in 2012. We'd be surprised if the model doesn't change soon, but the original will always be special.Next up, we mention the Ming 17-series. It's hard to believe, but Mike first reviewed a 17.06 Slate back in 2019. This started his love affair with the brand, and it was ultimately contagious. Now, Balazs is hooked too! The 17.09 was a watershed moment for both of us, as we each own one.Technical powerhousesFrom a technical perspective, it's hard to fault the Sinn EZM collection. These pieces are the brand's most focused and hardcore tool watches, made for specific jobs. Models like the EZM 1 are the most famous, but all of them are worth owning. Due to the innovation and design, we're confident that all of these editions will be discussed in the future.Balazs brings up the Grand Seiko SLGH005 White Birch from 2021, a watch that created a craze for the upscale Japanese brand. People went nuts for the White Birch when it came out, and any time GS releases another silvery-white dial, there's a similar fervor. The 40mm steel reference comes equipped with the brand's satisfying and mesmerizing 9SA5 Hi-Beat automatic movement. Yes, Grand Seiko makes a lot of watches, but there will only be one original White Birch.Finally, Mike suggests that the Nomos Club Sport Neomatik Worldtimer is one of the modern watches that will be a future classic. Honestly, we forget how impressive Nomos is with its in-house movements and escapements. The latest Worldtimer is a cool watch available in several flavors. With its thin caliber and multi-city display, this is and always will be a great daily (and global) accessory.We hope you enjoy today's show, and thank you for listening. As always, if you have future show ideas, please let us know!

G.K. Chesterton gave an entire quarter of What's Wrong with the World to what he called the mistake about the child, and his verdict was blunt: the schoolmaster works not for the parent but against him. In this solo back-to-school episode, Joe Grabowski follows that argument through to the line Chesterton offers as the whole purpose of teaching—to pour that fiery simplicity upon the whole of life—and asks what it would take to recover the childlike wonder Chesterton insisted was education's only real aim.

Doug Bytes synthesizes insights from 200 interviews with scientists, soldiers, and athletes. Modern men lose touch with inner signals due to modern lifestyle shifts. This episode breaks down practical steps to rebuild self-trust and spot daily signs.  Core Concepts 1. Practice inner awareness. Society rewards analytical problem-solving over quiet self-reflection.  2. Distinguish fear from instinct. Fear screams loudly. Intuition communicates quietly and persistently.  3. Change physical inputs. Cleaner food choices help tune internal perception.  4. Test small decisions. Ask your body how choices feel before taking action.  5. Track daily synchronicities. Notice unusual events like repeating natural patterns.  Connect with Doug Beitz: Email: info@dougbeitz.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dougbeitz/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dougbeitz/ Website: https://buymeacoffee.com/dougbeitz Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6mQ258nugC3lyw3SpvYuoK?si=7cec409527d34438 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/intuitive-conversations-with-doug/id1593172364 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/doug-beitz-472a4b338/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dougbeitz178

Sixty years ago, workers at the Wave Hill cattle station in the Northern Territory took a stand against discrimination and poor working conditions and walked off the job in protest. A defining moment for Australia's Indigenous land rights, the Wave Hill walk off lead the way for the Aboriginal Land Rights Act of1976 and its significance is still celebrated today. - Шестьдесят лет назад работники скотоводческой станции Уэйв Хилл в Северной территории выступили против дискриминации и плохих условий труда и в знак протеста покинули свои рабочие места.

ADHD is usually treated as a problem in the brain. But what if some of the factors making it harder to focus, regulate your mood, or manage your symptoms are actually coming from somewhere else in your body? In this episode, I'm joined by one of my producers, Emma, to explore ADHD through a functional medicine lens. We look beyond the diagnosis to ask what may be happening “under the hood”—from the gut and microbiome to inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, blood sugar, hormones, and the foods we eat. Because the brain doesn't operate in isolation. What happens throughout the body can directly influence how it functions. Here's what we discuss in today's episode: The surprising connection between your gut and your ability to focus—even if you have no digestive symptoms What I look for beyond the brain when someone comes to me with ADHD The everyday foods and nutrient deficiencies that may be quietly making ADHD symptoms worse Why two people with the same ADHD diagnosis may have completely different underlying drivers What caffeine, skipping breakfast, food dyes, sugar cravings, and menopause may mean for ADHD symptoms Where I would start if an adult came to me newly diagnosed with ADHD ADHD may begin with symptoms in the brain, but that doesn't mean the brain is the only place we should look. By understanding the connections between diet, gut health, inflammation, nutrients, hormones, and brain function, we can start asking a more useful question: What is making it harder for each person's brain to function at its best?

In The Londinium Chronicles, Gaius (John Batchelor) and Germanicus (Michael Vlahos) explore the intersections of Roman history and modern geopolitics.Gaius and Germanicus: Set in Gaius's expanded Londinium wine bar, the hosts introduce modern headlines, including a US-Iran stalemate and rumors of a CIA-FSB flight to Moscow involving refinery capacities, Article 5, or a peace summit. Germanicus analyzes the Ukraine war, arguing Western support through tech, CIA operators, and weapons is pushing Russia to a breaking point. He proposes that empires do not end but pause and reform; the Russian Empiresuccessfully evolved into the modern, resilient Russian-Orthodox hybrid state, which seeks national pride, identity, and security rather than simple revisionist conquest.

Submission guidelines can be found at http://www.TallTaleTV.com   ---- About Tall Tale TV ---- Hi there! My name is Chris Herron and I'm an audiobook narrator. In 2015, I suffered from poor Type 1 diabetes control which lead me to become legally blind for almost a year. The doctors didn't give me much hope, predicting an 80% chance that I would never see again. But I refused to give up and changed my lifestyle drastically. Through sheer willpower (and an amazing eye surgeon) I beat the odds and regained my vision. During that difficult time, I couldn't read or write, which was devastating as they had always been a source of comfort for me since childhood. However, my wife took me to the local library where she read out the titles of audiobooks to me. I selected some of my favorite books, such as the Disc World series, Name of the Wind, Harry Potter, and more, and the audiobooks brought these stories to life in a way I had never experienced before. They helped me through the darkest period of my life and I fell in love with audiobooks. Once I regained my vision, I decided to pursue a career as an audiobook narrator instead of a writer. That's why I created Tall Tale TV, to support aspiring authors in the writing communities that I had grown to love before my ordeal. My goal was to help them promote their work by providing a promotional audio short story that showcases their writing skills to readers.

High ankle sprains and syndesmosis injuries can be some of the most challenging ankle injuries to diagnose and manage—particularly when instability requires surgical intervention.In this special episode of The Sports Docs Podcast LIVE from the AOSSM Annual Meeting in Seattle, hosts Ashley Bassett, MD, and Catherine Logan, MD, sit down with Kevin Martin, DO, Orthopaedic Surgeon at The Ohio State University, to discuss modern approaches to syndesmosis stabilization.The conversation explores how surgical management has evolved from traditional rigid screw fixation toward dynamic stabilization strategies and what that evolution means for reduction accuracy, rehabilitation, and return to sport.Dr. Martin shares his approach to determining when a syndesmosis injury requires surgery and walks listeners through important technical considerations for achieving and maintaining an anatomic reduction. The discussion covers practical surgical pearls and pitfalls, including reduction techniques, clamp positioning, tunnel placement, button seating, and avoiding syndesmotic malreduction.The group also discusses how surgeons determine when additional fixation may be beneficial, including the decision to use one versus two dynamic fixation constructs in athletes, high-energy injuries, and more rotationally unstable patterns.Later in the episode, the conversation turns to postoperative rehabilitation and return-to-sport progression, including how injury severity and associated fractures influence decisions surrounding range of motion, weightbearing, running, cutting, and return to competition.Finally, the episode explores modern options for managing syndesmosis injuries associated with distal fibula fractures, including intramedullary fibular fixation and how implant design continues to evolve to support minimally invasive fracture fixation and syndesmosis stabilization.In This Episode, We Discuss:When syndesmosis injuries can be treated nonoperatively—and when surgery is indicatedIdentifying syndesmotic instability in athletesThe evolution from rigid fixation to dynamic syndesmosis stabilizationAdvantages and limitations of traditional syndesmotic screw fixationWhy anatomic reduction remains the most important step in successful syndesmosis surgerySurgical pearls for avoiding syndesmotic malreductionClamp positioning and the risks of over-compressionTunnel placement and implant positioning considerationsOne versus two fixation constructs: when is additional stabilization necessary?Managing rotational instability and high-energy injury patternsPostoperative rehabilitation and return-to-sport progressionTreating syndesmosis injuries associated with distal fibula fracturesIntramedullary fibular fixation as an alternative to traditional plate fixationEmerging technology and the future of syndesmosis stabilizationKey TakeawaySuccessful treatment of syndesmosis injuries starts with recognizing instability and achieving an accurate anatomic reduction. As fixation technology and surgical techniques continue to evolve, surgeons have more options to balance stability, physiologic motion, rehabilitation, and return to sport.This episode of The Sports Docs Podcast was recorded LIVE at the AOSSM Annual Meeting in Seattle and is sponsored by Arthrex.Stay ConnectedIf you enjoyed this episode, be sure to subscribe, rate, and review on:Apple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-sports-docs-podcast/id1557160983Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/01LSRvAWnz2gk8qyPd1Qbw?si=13cc745f43b740c0Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/f15121d5-cc57-4201-9f2f-d6c2b26a3800/the-sports-docs-podcastYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCw48o9AbLmOoQk5fHfhsXFAFollow us on Instagram for more insights on cutting-edge sports medicine, athlete recovery, and performancehttps://www.instagram.com/thesportsdocspod/Our Hosts:Catherine Logan, MD, MBAhttps://www.cloganmd.com/Ashley Bassett, MDhttps://orthopedicnj.com/physicians/ashley-bassettwww.thesportsdocspod.com

Tell us what you think of the show! Modern grid management is about much more than routine efficiency. Utility teams are under pressure to enable proactive wildfire mitigation, rapid storm response, and continuous oversight across thousands of miles of aging infrastructure, but maintaining and scaling these tasks can be a major challenge when teams are constrained by traditional field inspection methods that are slow, expensive, and visually limited. How are autonomous, long-range drone platforms and Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations transforming grid monitoring across massive service territories? And what does it actually take to deploy and scale these capabilities?Trevor Perrott, CEO and Co-Founder of Censys Technologies, sat down with us to answer those questions and more. He breaks down the operational realities of moving from reactive maintenance to predictive asset management, explores how utilities can achieve "asset omniscience" to protect critical infrastructure, and outlines strategies for turning massive aerial datasets into actionable intelligence. Perrott also outlines how to navigate ever-evolving FAA regulations, what approaches are being used to scale pilot programs into high-ROI enterprise deployments, and more. Energy policy on your mind?

No man can serve two masters. But also, no man can serve no master. We cannot serve both God and mammon. But we cannot serve neither God nor mammon. In this life, we either serve God or the world, one or the other.One of the most basic things that every man desires is freedom. No one wants to be a slave. We all understand that slavery is incompatible with happiness, and we want to be happy.But the thing is that we are not able to attain freedom and happiness on our own. They are things that we can only attain through service. We either serve the world or we serve God.Both the world and Our Lord Jesus Christ offer us freedom and happiness. But the way in which they do so is completely different.Our Lord famously tells us, “Take up my yoke upon you, and learn of me, because I am meek, and humble of heart: and you shall find rest to your souls. For my yoke is sweet and my burden light”.In John 8, when Our Lord has His most heated discussion with the Jews, He says, “If you continue in my word, you shall be my disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”How do we attain freedom as human beings? We attain it by following the word of Our Lord, by serving Him, by obeying Him. That is what Our Lord tells us about how we become free. Note how this is one of the many paradoxes that we find in the Gospel: freedom through obedience.What does the world say? How does it promise to give freedom to its followers? It says, “I will give you freedom by allowing you to do whatever you want without any constraints except the public order. I will give you infinite choices in entertainment, food, clothing and sexuality. You get to choose whatever you want and we will make sure that no one gives you a hard time for your choices.”Modern technology has made this type of “freedom” so much more accessible in the past, in the sense that the modern world, through its technological devices and its refusal to forbid any type of behavior, provides modern man with many more choices than he had in the past.And what is the result, for those who serve the world in order to achieve their freedom? The result is an unusually high rate of addiction. For many people today, what up front is an infinite number of choices becomes in the end a loss of the power to choose.It is estimated that, in 2024, 16.8% of Americans suffered from some form of addiction. Please note that that is one out of every six people you see walking on the street and means close to 50 million people.Someone may respond to this by saying, “But devout Catholics are addicted to God, and so they have an addiction problem as well”. I actually hope that that accusation is true for many, if not all, of you at St. Isidore's. We want as many of you as possible to be addicted to God.But I think that this accusation about devout Catholics will help us clarify what we mean about freedom and how it is attained by us as human beings.We say that someone is addicted when they know that what they are doing is harming them and yet they still continue to do it. But following Christ, following the will of God, is very good for us. Therefore, someone who is always following the will of God is not suffering from an addiction.It turns out that, when we serve Our Lord Jesus Christ, we end up serving our own good.

We thought Volume 1 went off the rails.We were wrong.Welcome to The Ultimate Conspiracy Theory Ranking | Volume 2.Same rules.Same scale.Bigger rabbit trails...1 — Not in a million years.5 — Absolutely. I'd bet my life on it.This time, we're getting into some of the theories that sit at the crossroads of UFOs, ancient mythology, religion, history, government secrecy, education, and the uncomfortable possibility that maybe we haven't always been given the whole story.Are aliens really what we think they are?Did something actually crash at Roswell?What really happened in Dallas in 1963?And how far back do some of these ideas actually go?Because once the conversation starts connecting modern UFO lore with ancient Greek mythology...once we start asking whether the education system has been teaching us history or simply reinforcing an accepted narrative...and once CERN somehow enters the conversation alongside a certain ancient throne associated with something much darker...things get weird fast.Very weird.And that's before we even get to some of the biggest theories on Tyler's list.As always, we're not pretending to have all the answers.We're ranking the possibilities.Arguing about the evidence.Questioning the official stories.Following the strange connections.And occasionally wondering whether we should have just talked about movies instead.Some theories sound ridiculous at first.Some become harder to dismiss the longer you sit with them.And some open the door to much bigger questions about what we've been taught, what we believe, and where those beliefs actually came from.That's what makes this one fun.Volume 2 isn't just about conspiracy theories.It's about the stories beneath the stories.Ancient gods.Modern mysteries.Hidden histories.Strange coincidences.And the possibility that some rabbit holes may connect in ways we never expected.So grab your headphones, keep an open mind, and rank along with us.Ask the question that keeps getting us into trouble:Okay... but what if?The Ultimate Conspiracy Theory Ranking | Volume 2Be Rad.RAD WAYS YOU CAN SUPPORT OUR SHOW:JOIN OUR PATREON: Exclusive episodes, bonus content, and behind-the-scenes weirdness: patreon.com/thatwouldberadCHECK OUT OUR MERCH: Grab official That Would Be Rad gear: thatwouldberad.myspreadshop.comSHOW INFO:

Modern biology often posits Darwinian evolution and natural selection as a settled explanation for the vast complexity of the natural world. Yet, looking closely at the nanoscale machinery inside the cell reveals molecular systems that seem to defy a gradual, evolutionary unfolding, says Michael Behe, professor of biochemistry at Lehigh University and author of “Darwin's Black Box,” “The Edge of Evolution,” and “Darwin Devolves.”“I was startled to see that a foundation concept of my worldview had no support; that it was all built on social considerations,” Behe says.Importantly, Behe points out that he is not rejecting Darwinian evolution in its entirety. Minor evolutionary adaptations are well-established, he says. But can Darwin's theory of evolution adequately explain the origin of complex biological mechanisms that require many interlocking components to function at all?Also, what do recent discoveries in molecular genetics reveal about the boundaries of natural evolution? And why is the scientific consensus on Darwin's theory far less unanimous than it appears?Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

There is a certain kind of caricature of women that pops up in cultural commentary right now. Modern women, we are told, are inundated with male attention at all times, and all of it is deeply unwelcome. According to this view, says Phoebe Maltz Bovy, “straight women merely put up with men's advances because we don't want them to murder us, or because we rely on them for a roof over our heads, or maybe because they seem nice and this is our way of saying thank you.” In a new book 'The Last Straight Woman', Phoebe asks us to forget this caricature of 21st century womanhood, and to take a moment to think of the frumpy, horny women who are often forgotten in this discourse. The women who sincerely and enthusiastically desire men, and find that they get less male attention than they would like. Today we discussed whether #MeToo was only concerned with "hot girls", why so many women are identifying as something other than heterosexual, the politics of female agency, and much more.MMM is sponsored by 321 - a new online introduction to Christianity, presented by former MMM guest Glen Scrivener.
