For the 15th anniversary of the second Titus Andronicus album, The Monitor, we take a detailed look at how it was made. After Patrick Stickles founded Titus Andronicus in Glen Rock, New Jersey in 2005, he worked with a rotating group of musicians, many of whom he had known in high school. By the time they were ready to record their first album, the lineup had coalesced around Stickles, Liam Betson, Dan Tews, Ian Graetzer and Ian Dykstra. The New Jersey label, Troubleman Unlimited, agreed to put out their debut album and pay for studio time with producer Kevin McMahon, who they had worked with on their early recordings. The Airing of Grievances was released in 2008 and was an unexpected success. XL Recordings became interested in signing the band and agreed to rerelease their debut album in 2009. Around this time, Eric Harm took over on drums, while Stickles moved to Somerville, Massachusetts and began writing the songs that would make up their second album. Using their advance from XL, they booked a month in Kevin McMahon's studio and began recording the album. The Monitor was eventually released in 2010. In this episode, Patrick Stickles describes his grand vision of a concept album framed around the American Civil War. He describes his routine at the time where he would stay up late, smoke pot and watch Ken Burns's Civil War documentary. Stickles talks about how gobsmacked he was by the film and how the words of historical figures like Abraham Lincoln and Walt Whitman inspired him to include their words as a framing device on this record. He also describes this time in his life when he was graduating college and applying to graduate school but deciding to abandon his plans as the band started to become successful. Partially inspired by Bruce Springsteen's Born to Run, Stickles talks about how he felt like he needed to take advantage of a potentially fleeting moment, where he had a deal with a new label, the attention of the music press, and a growing audience around the world. The result was the big swing of The Monitor, where the band had no qualms about attempting to create a generational touchstone. From the indie rock boom years to casting his friends in reenactment roles to ambitious song suites to incorporating the music of the Civil War to exploring the eternal us vs. them conflict to the continuing saga of mental health to the importance of conviction and raising the stakes, we'll hear the stories around how the record came together.

Last year we did an entire livestream on how the Biden administration chose to celebrate Easter, most notably by declaring March 31, Easter, as Transgender Day of Visibility. It was the inauguration of a new religion, but one that in God's grace appears to have been short lived. A mere year later, with Trump in the office, we got a robust, theological celebration of Easter from the highest office in the land. Not just well wishes or platitudes about God's love for us, but an assertion of how in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ we have redemption and forgiveness for our sins and the hope of eternal life.Now in the midst of every “we're so back” is an “it's so over” moment. This year, while the threat to Easter is certainly not as pronounced and obvious as under the Biden presidency, a new, or perhaps old, plan of the enemy is being run.See, the story of Easter is in part, the story of a rebellious people. In one sense, we are the rebellious people, turning everyone to our own way and needing the death of the spotless lamb of God to atone for our sin. But it also is a historical story, in which Christ came to His own, and His own received Him not. Christ was offered up to death by the Jews, and they have opposed him, the apostles, and mankind ever since. Telling the story of Easter without the sober warning of the destruction awaiting those who reject Christ is not to tell the story of Easter at all.That simple statement that I just made may very soon be very, very costly to confess. This week, Trump also appointed Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun to lead the special envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism. The most commonly used definition of antisemitism from the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance explicitly asserts that claiming the Jews killed Jesus is antisemitic.This may be the dividing truth of our generation. Will we stand for what the Bible says, including when it is inconvenient and possibly even illegal? Or was all that talk about infallibility, inerrancy, and sufficiency really just talk after all?This episode is brought to you by our premier sponsors, Armored Republic and Reece Fund, as well as our Patreon members and donors.

How Liver Congestion Impacts Brain Function In this episode, we dive into the connection between liver congestion and brain health, focusing on how toxin buildup and blood-brain barrier dysfunction can contribute to brain fog, cognitive decline, and neuroinflammation. A congested liver allows toxins to leak into the bloodstream, which can reach the brain, impairing function. We also explore the gut-liver-brain axis, the role of vagal tone in detoxification, and how chronic stress exacerbates liver dysfunction, leading to cognitive issues. We discuss holistic strategies to support liver and brain health, such as: Supporting bile flow and liver detox with nutrient-dense foods (cruciferous vegetables, bitter greens, and lemon water). Strengthening vagal tone through breathwork, deep breathing, and cold exposure. Supporting gut health and reducing toxin load with probiotics and digestive aids. D.R.E.S.S. Protocol for Liver Health FDN Practitioners use the D.R.E.S.S. for Health Success® framework to restore liver function naturally: Diet: Focus on nutrient-dense, anti-inflammatory foods, like cruciferous vegetables and bitter greens, while reducing liver stressors like processed foods and alcohol. Rest: Ensure 7-9 hours of quality sleep to optimize liver detoxification. Exercise & Movement: Encourage daily movement (walking, strength training) to support lymphatic drainage and avoid overtraining. Stress Reduction: Use techniques like breathwork and meditation to lower cortisol and reduce stress on the liver. Supplements: Targeted liver detox support with Milk Thistle, NAC, Glutathione, B vitamins, and herbs like dandelion and burdock root. Functional lab testing, including GI-MAP, DUTCH, and Organic Acids Test, helps uncover root causes of liver congestion and cognitive dysfunction. These insights allow for personalized health protocols to optimize liver-brain-gut function and improve overall health. Key Takeaways – FDN Practitioner Approach to Liver Health: Investigate root causes using functional labs (GI MAP, DUTCH, OAT, CMP, Lipid Panel). Correlate lab markers with symptoms (fatigue, skin issues, hormone imbalances, digestion). Apply D.R.E.S.S. principles to restore detoxification pathways. Monitor progress and adjust protocols for personalized liver support. Tune in to learn how functional medicine and holistic strategies can improve brain clarity, mood, and overall health.

O ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro reuniu cerca de 45 mil apoiadores na Avenida Paulista, em São Paulo, ontem, para pedir o perdão político aos condenados pela invasão às sedes dos Três Poderes, em 8 de janeiro de 2023. A estimativa é do Monitor do Debate Público do Meio Digital, da USP, que fez o levantamento a partir de fotos aéreas do momento de pico da manifestação, durante o discurso de Bolsonaro, que iniciou cerca de 15h44 e durou 25 minutos. "O ato foi pró-Bolsonaro e teve mais que o dobro do que conseguiu em março, em Copacabana, mas é 1/4 do que conseguiu em fevereiro do ano passado, na mesma Avenida; é um copo meio-cheio, meio-vazio.

Do you have one dog who devours anything while another turns their nose up at perfectly good food? You're not alone in this frustrating mealtime dance. Picky eating in dogs stems from multiple sources—medical issues like dental pain or food allergies, behavioral patterns from inconsistent feeding, or simply learned behaviors when we constantly offer alternatives to refused meals. Doodle owners will nod knowingly, as these breeds seem particularly prone to food selectivity.The good news? Simple management techniques can transform your feeding routine. Establishing consistent mealtimes where uneaten food disappears after 15-20 minutes helps reset expectations. Creating separate feeding spaces eliminates competition between your vacuum-cleaner dog and your discerning diner. And contrary to popular belief, constantly switching foods often makes pickiness worse, not better—a stable, veterinarian-approved diet with occasional subtle enhancements like food seasonings typically works best.For those struggling with multi-dog households, structure is your friend. Monitor who's eating what, use puzzle feeders to make mealtime mentally engaging, and remember that adult dogs naturally eat less frequently than puppies. With patience and consistency, you can create harmony at mealtime that meets each dog's needs without the daily struggle. Ready to transform your feeding routine? These practical strategies will help both you and your canine companions enjoy mealtimes again.Support the showFollow us on social mediaInstagram @BAXTERandBella Facebook @TheOnlinePuppySchool YouTube @BAXTERandBellaSubscribe to our site for FREE weekly training tips!

Many retirees focus on achieving a high Monte Carlo “probability of success” in retirement—but is chasing a 99% success rate always the best move? In this episode, James highlights a real-life story of a man forced to delay retirement after a divorce dropped his probability of success from 99% to 70%. James explores why this single number shouldn't drive such massive decisions. He explains how context—like income sources, spending flexibility, and home equity—matters more than a static success rate. You'll learn why 100% isn't always ideal, and how to build a retirement plan that supports a meaningful life, not just a perfect score.Questions answered?1.

Take a deep breath. Yes, literally. And ask yourself: what's in the air I just inhaled? It's almost certain, with our modern lives and built, busy environments, that it contains a range of harmful particles. Whether it stems from city traffic or wildfires, air pollution has many sources, it affects all of us, and it has the potential to become much worse. So today, we're examining what constitutes a bad air day, the biggest producers of pollution, how we monitor the problem, and what can be done to improve matters. Like this podcast?

A shocking 90% of Australian baby and toddler foods fail to meet international guidelines, yet manufacturers employ deceptive marketing tactics to make us believe they're healthy choices. In this eye-opening episode, paediatric dietitian Kareena Savage reveals how "organic" labels and Health Star Ratings can mislead parents, with some toddler snacks containing more sugar than white chocolate. Learn practical strategies for decoding food labels, avoiding nutritional traps, and creating healthier, more affordable lunchboxes your kids will actually eat. Quote of the Episode: "We as parents in 2025 have it tougher than any other parent has ever had it in terms of trying to understand what is a healthy food choice for our child or for our family." Key Points: Food manufacturers use deceptive marketing, with 90% of Australian baby/toddler foods failing international guidelines. Many products marketed as healthy (like "97% fruit and yoghurt") contain more sugar than white chocolate. When reading food labels, check the ingredients list first—shorter is better. Avoid products with sugar in the top three ingredients. For packaged foods, aim for less than 20g sugar per 100g. Keep sodium under 350mg per 100g. The Health Star Rating system has significant flaws—companies know how to "game" the system. Packaged foods are typically more expensive and less nutritious than whole foods. Homemade treats are healthier than commercial versions, even with similar ingredients. Setting clear boundaries around packaged foods helps children develop better eating habits. Resources Mentioned: Visit nourishwithkarina.com for free recipes and nutrition information. Nourishing Kids support program Black bean brownie recipe Action Steps for Parents: Examine ingredient lists—choose products with shorter lists and recognisable ingredients. Check sugar content—aim for less than 20g per 100g in cereals and snacks. Monitor sodium levels—keep under 350mg per 100g. Be sceptical of Health Star Ratings, especially on highly processed foods. Limit children to 1-2 packaged items per day in lunchboxes. Buy in bulk to reduce costs of healthier packaged options. Batch-cook healthier versions of treats on weekends (using wholemeal flour and less sugar). Set clear family boundaries around packaged food consumption. Modify recipes by adding nutritious ingredients (extra egg, chia seeds, wholemeal flour). See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You're doing it all but could there be hidden mistakes hijacking your menopause fitness. Increasing protein, lifting weights, doing high intensity… How can you be this active but not working?  Disclaimer: This could trigger you. The mistakes hijacking your menopause fitness you could be doing on purpose because you were told once this is what you SHOULD DO.  This episode is for all women, and for you. So let's unpack these mistakes hijacking your menopause fitness.  Before anything.. Measure.  If you aren't measuring your body composition - skeletal muscle mass vs. body fat—you won't truly know what's working. I'll link to the 4 Smart scales in my store. You can get a Dexa or go to a gym. #1 Not Consuming Enough Fuel Women are not the same as men on carbohydrate needs. We get little, we disrupt hormones. You are influenced by cortisol, insulin, thyroid, testosterone, growth hormone and the endocrine.   How much fuel do you need? Endocrine dysfunction - ~30-35 calories per kg of FFM in women; but around 15 calories per kg FFM in men. Fat Free Mass (FFM) - say you're 130kg and you have 25% body fat. You need 2923 kcals to keep your body functioning well.   Fueling Your Workouts: Cardio: 30g carbs and 15g protein before Strength: 15g protein before + 30-45g protein after (higher in and after menopause)    Thyroid & Carbohydrates Low carb diets (under 100g) - pivotal point for lower thyroid function.  Serotonin - produced in the gut, declines with low carb diets.  Low-carb diets - don't lead to better weight loss long-term, they cause water loss.   What Happens When You're Under-Fueled?Low Energy Availability from brain (hypothalamus) to body… Hypothalamus signals HPA axis dysfunction Adrenals releases cortisol Thyroid slows metabolism Body conserves energy and breaks down muscle instead of fat for fuel   When You Fast, try one of these: High intensity intervals  Lift heavy weights  High intensity boot camp class  Reduce carbs, maintain a keto-like diet while increasing your walks   Know the Sneaky Mistakes Hijacking Your Menopause Fitness #2 Never REALLY Recovering From Hard Intervals or Hard Workouts  Some bootcamps and spin classes are rapid, high-intensity intervals without adequate recovery. Your cortisol levels during this session accumulate.  It feels like you crushed it, but here's the truth: if you're not giving yourself real recovery, you're not hitting your peak.  When you skip the full recovery, you're not building the strength and power that protect against sarcopenia (muscle loss). Try these: Warm-up A:  Run up a steep hill for 40 seconds Mark that point on the hill Slowly go back down Fully recover, with your nasal breathing. Repeat until you don't make it to the same spot on the hill Warm-up B: Run up a steep hill for 40 seconds Mark that point on the hill Quickly make your way down Cool down within 60 seconds Immediately run up again Repeat until you don't make it to the same spot on the hill They both will feel hard, but only one gets you to your maximum capacity.  The glycolytic fibers - fast twitch that sustain power fatigue quickly. Women have fewer of them than slow twitch and lose twice as fast as slow-twitch fibers. Fast-twitch fibers need power moves — like heavy lifting or box jumps — and plenty of recovery to reload and go again.  You're fooling yourself into thinking you're getting in better shape.  So test yourself… a simple protocol you can do at home. Try a full test battery you can easily do at home - I'll provide access to it in the show notes as soon as it's ready.  Measure. Monitor your waist girth, your body fat percent and your skeletal muscle. Rate your energy, sleep, focus, digestion and elimination. Are you improving, worse or the same? When you're exercising optimally these things also improve. It's not just muscle mass and fat.    Are these Mistakes Hijacking Your Menopause Fitness?   #3 Relying on Caffeine, Bar Codes and Over Emphasis on Packaged Food By nature, your cortisol level is highest at about 8am. You've fasted overnight and if you're not eating soon after waking, especially if you're exercising as a female, your body has stressor on top of stressor: Punched your ticket in midlife (less estrogen, more cortisol) Caffeine (more cortisol)  No fuel (more cortisol)  Exercise (more cortisol)  Fuel before intense exercise.  Fuel again after, especially within the 24 hour period after resistance training or other HARD workouts the need for recovery persists, so it's not just that single meal following activity. #4 Always High and Hard You have never needed high intensity more in your life than whatever age over 40 you are now.  You also need full recovery … between intervals, strength training sets and sessions.  Here's the secret: Muscle gets stronger between sessions. The exercise is the stimulus. The recovery is where fitness happens – the release of hormones, the repair and supercompensation.  Recovery time. Get AT LEAST 48 to 72 hours between hard use of the same muscle groups. Active Recovery. The low intensity movement between your hard sessions is absolutely important in increasing circulation, blood sugar stabilization, improving sleep and mood and overall fitness levels.    Keep It Simple: Movement Time. Walking at the level below where cortisol negatively spikes so you can reduce or optimize it. Short & Intense. Spend small amounts of time in high intensity interval session - where you recover completely between sessions. All Major Muscle Groups. Spend 2-3 sessions a week hitting all major muscle groups or twice to total muscle fatigue. If you're in post menopause, the volume of sets has to be greater compared to a perimenopause woman. Recover. Give yourself at least 48 hours.. 72 is often BEST.  Resources: Flipping50 Membership Flipping50 Insiders Group   Other Podcasts You Might Like: Previous Episode - Is Red Light Therapy the Answer to Aches, Pains and More Movement?

St. Peter Damian (1007 - 1072 AD) was an advisor to, and sometimes corrector of, Popes, Emperors, and Kings. Through his writings he was a reformer of the clergy, and the monasteries, especially calling out and confronting immorality among the clergy. He was a member of the first college of cardinals as we know it today, and took part in wrestling away from royals and nobles the power to appoint Popes, restoring the process of papal elections.  Links Listen to the Catholic Culture audio book of St. Peter Damian's The Lord Be With You: https://www.catholicculture.org/commentary/st-peter-damian-lord-be-with-you/ Listen to previous episodes of The Way of the Fathers on the subject of the validity of the Sacraments: Episode 4.8 - Novatian: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly (Part 1: The Good): https://www.catholicculture.org/commentary/48-novatian-good-bad-ugly-pt-1-good/ Episode 4.9 - Novatian: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly (Part 2: The Bad and the Ugly): https://www.catholicculture.org/commentary/49-novatian-part-2-bad-and-ugly/ Pope St. Stephen and the Sacraments: https://www.catholicculture.org/commentary/pope-st-stephen-and-sacraments/ Fr.
