In this episode of Living a Life in Full, I sit down with Dr. Jordan Grumet — hospice physician, author of The Purpose Code, and host of Earn & Invest — to explore what it really means to live a life of meaning rather than mere achievement. Drawing from his years at the bedside of patients nearing the end of life, Jordan shares powerful lessons about purpose, money, and what truly matters. Together, we unpack the myths of "finding your passion" and the pressure of "purpose anxiety," offering a more grounded, humane framework for aligning values, vocation, and vitality. Our conversation bridges the practical and the philosophical — from financial independence and fulfillment to designing a life of intentionality, curiosity, and contribution. Whether you're in medicine, business, or any stage of reinvention, this episode invites you to rethink success and rediscover purpose as an evolving practice, not a destination. It's a thoughtful, deeply human dialogue on how to live — and leave — a legacy that counts.

Why don't more doctors talk about death? Dr. Lydia Dugdale has been asking this question since she was a medical student. She is the Silberberg Professor of Medicine and directs the Center for Clinical Medical Ethics, and two books on how we die, including "The Lost Art of Dying." "Most medical professionals today are very unpracticed at talking to patients about their mortality," she says. Not only unpracticed, but even themselves afraid. In this bonus clip from Episode 232 with Macie Bridge, Dugdale traces the path from that early perplexity on the wards to the ars moriendi, the medieval art of dying, grounded in the idea that dying is part of living, so if you want to die well you have to live well. Lydia comments on the emergence of palliative care and the way it let physicians hand conversations about death to specialists; the doctor who inherited the priest's old place at the threshold between life and death; the death anxiety clinicians carry without examining; virtue as preparation for dying, and community as the other half of living well; the unrepresented patients of New York City who die alone; and a grumpy old man, hospitalized for 20 years, who wept when she read aloud what she had written about him. Episode Highlights “Most medical professionals today are very unpracticed at talking to patients about their mortality.” “we are really the intermediaries between life and death, I'm not saying we're priests, but that used to be the role of the priest. And so it is now the role of the physician. “If you want to die well, you have to live well.” We have to be all in or we end up like all of these patients here in New York City who have no one that I can reach out to as they're dying. “He started weeping and he said, someone finally saw me. Someone finally saw me. I've been in this hospital for 20 years and I didn't think anyone ever saw me.” About Lydia Dugdale Lydia Dugdale is a physician and medical ethicist who has spent fifteen years asking why medicine finds death so hard to talk about. She is the Silberberg Professor of Medicine at Columbia, directs the Columbia Center for Clinical Medical Ethics, and co-directs clinical ethics at NewYork-Presbyterian Milstein Hospital, where she still sees patients. She edited "Dying in the Twenty-First Century" and wrote "The Lost Art of Dying," a modern ars moriendi. She trained at the University of Chicago and Yale-New Haven Hospital, holds a master's in ethics from Yale Divinity School, and in 2025 founded the nonprofit Heal the Nation.

Send us Fan MailIn this retrospective national study, Adrianne and Nim look at 25 years of congenital heart disease mortality in the US using CDC WONDER data. Infant mortality remains staggeringly high (54 per 100,000), and after years of steady decline, it has been climbing again since 2014. Disparities run throughout: higher deaths among males, non-Hispanic Black and American Indian/Alaska Native populations, and in rural, Midwestern regions, pointing more to gaps in access and resources than to disease biology. The conversation also flags a growing, under-discussed problem, an aging adult congenital population outpacing the pediatric one for the first time, with too few specialists trained to care for them.----National Trends and Disparities in Congenital Heart Disease Mortality in the United States, 1999-2024.Raja S, Albrahim MMS, Aldhafeeri BF, Omar AA, Alqadeeb BA, Alhuways MM, Bangaryd AA, Alqahtany MG, Alfaraj AB, Almughyir RS, AlRasheed ST, Alfaifi M.

n one of the most emotional episodes of The Jimmy Rex Show, Jimmy sits down with entrepreneur, coach, and longtime friend Doug Cartwright just weeks after Doug was diagnosed with an aggressive glioblastoma brain tumor and given approximately 15 months to live.Doug shares the incredible story of how mysterious neurological symptoms led to an emergency brain surgery, the devastating diagnosis that followed, and why—despite facing death—he has found profound peace, gratitude, and purpose.Together they discuss mortality, spirituality, personal development, faith, love, AI-assisted medical research, experimental cancer treatments, and how embracing life fully changes everything when your time suddenly becomes uncertain.This is a conversation about far more than cancer—it's about how to truly live.Follow Doug Cartwright: IG
The old stock assessment models, with fixed effects and oversimplified assumptions, have failed to capture the true biological and spatial complexity of striped bass populations. Now, a cutting-edge model called WAM (Woods Hole Assessment Model) promises to deliver a far more realistic picture — but only if we understand its potential and pitfalls.In this episode, we dive into the heart of the debate: Can the new WAM model address longstanding flaws like fixed mortality rates and unreliable data inputs? In this episode, scientists and anglers unpack how the transition from traditional catch-at-age models to probabilistic, spatially explicit frameworks could reshape our understanding of recruitment, natural mortality, and spawning stock biomass. We explore the limitations of basic assumptions—like constant mortality across fish sizes—and reveal how outdated science has misled managers, impacting regulations and future conservation efforts.
How can you enjoy sugar without gaining weight, fuelling cravings or crashing later in the day? The answer, surprisingly, is not to cut it out. In today's episode, Professor Tim Spector and Professor Sarah Berry discuss which forms of sugar affect your blood sugar levels most, and what small changes you can make today to reduce the impact. They also explore how sharp blood sugar spikes and dips may affect hunger, energy, inflammation and long-term health. By the end of the episode, you'll know how to spot hidden sugars, how to avoid the afternoon slump and energy crashes, and, most importantly, how to enjoy cake with less impact on your blood sugar. Sugar is not the enemy. But could a few small changes help you enjoy sweet foods without the cycle of cravings, hunger and energy crashes?
Frank LaRosa has been in this business for thirty-two years and he says he has never seen deals like this. Frank opens by explaining why he cannot see how financial advisor transition deals get any more lucrative than they are right now. Stacey backs that up with the numbers, pointing out that deals sitting at 100 percent of trailing twelve or 100 basis points today were only 40 or 50 just four or five years ago. That is not an opinion, it is math. From there, the conversation turns personal. Frank talks candidly about being in his mid-fifties and watching people his age face serious health scares or pass away without warning. That perspective drives his argument for why advisors with real practices should think seriously about taking chips off the table now, without selling their business, especially since transitions have become dramatically faster than they used to be. Frank also raises a fear a lot of advisors quietly carry, the worry that a new firm could eventually get acquired by the same company they left. Stacey breaks down why advisors still come out ahead in that scenario, since negotiating a move almost always comes with a lower cost of affiliation and a higher payout, meaning the money is already in the bank regardless of what happens years down the road. The episode wraps with a challenge Stacey poses directly, does your family or your spouse actually know about the decision you are making to stay put. Frank follows it up with a story from his branch manager days about closing deals over dinner with a recruit's spouse and why staying exactly where you are is still a decision that deserves a real conversation at home, not silence. Questions answered in this episode include: Why are financial advisor transition deals at an all-time high right now? What does it mean to take chips off the table without selling your practice? Why is choosing to stay at your current firm still considered a decision? Should advisors worry about their new firm getting acquired down the road? How fast can financial advisors realistically transition their book of business? Why do family conversations matter when deciding whether to move firms? Is complacency costing financial advisors real money right now?

Madlik Podcast – Torah Thoughts on Judaism From a Post-Orthodox Jew
If you think your flaws and failures automatically make you a better, more "authentic" leader, you've completely misunderstood the lesson of Moses. Most civilizations turned their founders into saints. The Hebrew Bible does the opposite. Abraham falters. Jacob deceives. David sins. Moses—the greatest prophet in Judaism—is denied entry into the Promised Land. This isn't a bug in the Torah. It's one of its most revolutionary ideas. In this episode of Madlik, Geoffrey Stern and Rabbi Adam Mintz explore why Judaism insists that greatness and imperfection can coexist—but never confuses failure with virtue. Along the way they examine the Torah's portrait of Moses, the Beatitudes, Isaiah, Jonathan Sacks, Nahum Sarna, David Flusser, Martin Luther, Bret Stephens, and the surprising connection between biblical leadership and today's culture of authenticity, victimhood, and populism. Can a society acknowledge human weakness without celebrating it? That question may be as relevant today as it was in the wilderness. Key Takeaways The Torah Tells the Truth About Greatness - Unlike most ancient cultures, the Hebrew Bible doesn't turn its heroes into flawless saints. Moses, Abraham, Jacob, and David are remembered in all their greatness—and all their humanity. Their failures don't diminish them; they make their greatness credible. Flaws Are Lessons, Not Credentials - Judaism teaches us to acknowledge weakness, learn from it, and overcome it. There is a profound difference between recognizing imperfection and celebrating it. The Torah preserves failure to cultivate humility—not to make failure itself a virtue. Leadership Is Measured by Character, Not Victimhood Moses never reaches the Promised Land, yet he remains Judaism's greatest leader because of his faithfulness, courage, and willingness to serve a mission larger than himself. In an age that often confuses authenticity with virtue and grievance with authority, the Torah reminds us that true leadership is earned by responsibility, not by imperfection alone.

McLaughlin, DNP, AGACNP-BC, CCRN, FCCM, speaks with Sayed Abdulmotaleb Almoosawy, MBChB (Hons), about his article “The Association Between Socioeconomic Position and Mortality in Patients With Sepsis and Septic Shock—A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis,” published in the April 2026 issue of Critical Care Medicine. Drawing on 13 observational studies that encompassed nearly 4 million patients, the analysis evaluates how factors such as insurance status, income, education, and neighborhood deprivation relate to short-term mortality outcomes. The findings reveal a consistent association between lower socioeconomic position and increased mortality, with lack of private insurance demonstrating the strongest signal—likely reflecting barriers to timely access to care and delayed presentation. This episode challenges clinicians and researchers alike to recognize the link between socioeconomic disadvantages and worse sepsis outcomes, highlighting the need to collect equity-relevant data and reduce gaps in care to improve survival for critically ill patients.

People spend over $36 billion a year on vitamins, and most people probably couldn't tell you what those nutrients are supposed to accomplish. The multivitamin is the most popular supplement on Earth, but it's also one of the most mocked and misunderstood, with one camp calling it a scam while another swears a special formulation changed their energy and their life. Both takes miss the point of what a multivitamin is designed to do. Inside today's episode, I settle the multivitamin conversation in a way you can take back to your own life, starting with the reframe that the multi is a cheap insurance policy against nutrient gaps rather than a hero or a villain.Topics discussed: - Multivitamin as Insurance Policy- Vitamin D, Magnesium, and the Nutrient Gap Data- Why the RDA Is a Floor Not a Target- The Cheap Forms Problem- Nutrient Competition Inside the Pill- The Multivitamin Mindset Trap- What the Research Shows on Mortality and Disease- The Five Groups Who Benefit Most---------- My Live Program for Coaches: The Functional Nutrition and Metabolism Specialization www.metabolismschool.com---------- [Free] Metabolism School 101: The Video Serieshttp://www.metabolismschool.com/metabolism-101----------Subscribe to My Youtube Channel: https://youtube.com/@sammillerscience?si=s1jcR6Im4GDHbw_1----------Grab a Copy of My New Book - Metabolism Made Simple---------- Stay Connected: Instagram: @sammillerscienceYoutube: SamMillerScience Facebook: The Nutrition Coaching Collaborative CommunityTikTok: @sammillerscience----------“This Podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.

Our Lead Pastor, Whit George, continues week seven of our teaching series, Summer in the Psalms.
What if our obsession with “dangerous” sun is killing us?If you (recklessly) leave your urban office for lunch, you are told to yank your hat down low. If you (again, recklessly) let your kids dash into the backyard, you are told to slather them in sunscreen—or learn to live with the guilt.And yes, sun avoidance undoubtedly prevents some skin cancers, including the deadliest type, melanomaBut a recent study suggests sunlight contributes to hundreds of thousands of deaths every year in the United States alone—orders of magnitude more than the estimated 8400 annual US melanoma deaths.In this episode, we discuss evidence linking sun avoidance toalmost a million annual deaths in the US and Europe alone, exceeding the number caused by global military conflictsbreast, pancreatic, colon, and lung cancers, as well as heart disease, high blood pressure, and stroketo INCREASED risk of death in those diagnosed with sun-induced melanoma.Yes, you read that right; some melanoma deaths may be related to too little sunlight. (But do understand that this is complex--sunlight DOES cause melanoma. Well, some melanomas....)We also discuss why supplementing with vitamin D pills fails to remedy these terrible conditions, and what a thoughtful person can do instead, while staying safe.We hope you enjoy this episode, and that it helps you enjoy the sun again--thoughtfully, of course.

Fresh off the birth of his son, Travis opens up about how fatherhood reframes the way he thinks about mortality and protecting the people who depend on you.From there they get into sequence of return risk, including a live demo where shuffling the exact same 30 years of returns swings the outcome from $2.2 million left over to fully broke in 14 years, and why a guaranteed income floor lets you stay on the compounding curve right when it's most powerful.Chapters:00:00 – Opening segment03:10 – Re-anchoring on why we plan: it's about the next generation05:25 – Why $500K of SGLI won't set a family up10:15 – What an annuity actually is: the inverse of life insurance14:40 – The power of setting an income floor18:30 – A brief history of annuities, from Rome to the modern pension gap20:15 – When to consider an annuity: the 50 to mid-70s window21:15 – No medical underwriting: annuities are priced on age alone25:15 – The 4% rule and where it falls apart26:05 – Sequence of return risk explained with a live shuffle28:45 – Same data, wildly different outcomes30:50 – Why the Series 65 teaches nothing about insurance or annuities35:00 – Trade-offs exist everywhere, even in a Roth IRA and 401(k)39:50 – Mortality credits: the third form of return45:30 – Payouts are tied to the 10-year Treasury at purchase46:40 – The 1035 exchange: upgrading an old, uncompetitive annuity50:00 – Closing segmentKey Takeaways:The order of your returns can matter more than the returns themselves. Take the same 30 years of market data and simply shuffle the sequence, and the outcome swings from leaving $2.2 million behind to running out of money in 14 years.An annuity is the inverse of life insurance, and it's the only chassis that guarantees income for life. Where a $1 million portfolio using the 4% rule cautiously pulls $40,000 a year and still might run dry, that same $1 million can buy a fully guaranteed $77,000 a year that keeps paying as long as you're alive.A guaranteed income floor buys you flexibility everywhere else. Once your baseline needs are covered for life, you no longer have to run conservative with the rest of the portfolio.$500K of group life insurance is not a plan. In a high cost of living area, half a million won't maintain a family's lifestyle, and most people aren't even capped out there.If your parents bought an annuity, get it reviewed. Payouts are locked to the 10-year Treasury yield at the time of purchase, so annuities bought in low-rate years are often badly uncompetitive today.

Why Oral and IV Glutathione Never Actually Reach Your Cells (The Delivery Breakthrough Changing Everything) Most of the supplements you're taking aren't failing you, they're failing to ever reach the cells that need them, and almost nobody selling them wants you to know that. This episode hands you the delivery breakthrough that actually gets it there. Use code DAVE for a discount at aurowellness.com/dave Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Nayan Patel, a pharmacist, researcher, and founder of Auro Wellness, whose work centers on solving one of biohacking's most stubborn problems: getting nutrients past the bloodstream and into the cells that actually need them. He holds 14 patents in delivery technology, partners in the high-end longevity clinic Unlimited Life, and has spent over two decades studying glutathione, the master antioxidant his own research helped bring into modern biohacking. Dave and Dr. Patel break down a 2011 University of Texas study showing that oral and liposomal glutathione are completely broken down into raw amino acids before absorption, meaning none of it reaches the bloodstream as glutathione, a pattern that holds true even for IV administration. They dig into new brain-imaging research showing topical glutathione crossing into neural tissue within 20 minutes, why senescent "zombie cells" may be directly tied to glutathione shortfalls, and why NAD, despite its reputation as the ultimate longevity molecule, is actually dependent on glutathione to do its job. They also cover the real purity ceiling on GHK-copper peptides, safe upper limits for glycine and NAC before they start working against you, a topical alcohol protocol that clears acetaldehyde without triggering a breathalyzer, and why oxidative stress from GLP-1 use is quietly driving one of the drug class's least-discussed side effects. You'll Learn: Why oral, liposomal, and even IV glutathione never actually reach your cells intact, and what a 2011 UT study proved about it How topical glutathione was shown to cross into brain tissue within 20 minutes, and what that means for neurological aging Why senescent "zombie cells" may be directly linked to glutathione shortfalls, and how one longevity clinic reversed markers by 70% in a year Why NAD isn't the "ultimate longevity drug" it's marketed as, and its actual dependent relationship with glutathione The real purity ceiling on GHK-copper peptides, and why 73% is currently the best available anywhere Safe upper limits for glycine and NAC, and the oxalate crystal and Parkinson's-like risks of overdoing either one A topical alcohol protocol that clears acetaldehyde fast enough to beat a breathalyzer Why GLP-1 drugs are quietly driving oxidative stress, and what most patients are missing to counter it Thank you to our sponsors! - PredictiveMind™ | Get your Brain Pattern Mapping report at predictivemind.io/dave and use code DAVE for 10% off. - OneSkin | Get 15% off OneSkin with the code DAVE at https://www.oneskin.co/DAVE #oneskinpod - Caldera + Lab | A small habit with big results.

Six days before he sat down for this conversation, he ran a marathon. Then he explained what the race did to his brain. When you run 26 miles and your glycogen runs out, your brain still needs energy, so it starts stripping the fatty myelin off its own neurons and burning it for fuel. MRI scans caught a 20% drop in myelin up to two months after a marathon, and cognitive testing showed real impairment for about a month. In this episode, Louisa sits down with Brady Holmer, exercise physiologist, 2:24 marathoner, and author of VO2 Max Essentials, for one of the most practical conversations on aerobic fitness, brain health, and longevity the show has recorded. They cover why "marathon brain" is real but temporary, the menopause parallel where a starved brain catabolizes its own white matter, and whether pre-loading ketones or omega-3s can protect your myelin through a hard endurance effort. Then Brady breaks down VO2 max the way almost nobody does: not as a heart-and-lung number, but as a five-step oxygen cascade running from your lungs to your mitochondria, and why the bottleneck moves from your heart to your muscles as you age. You will learn the exact VO2 max floor below which everything becomes a maximal effort, the "50 at 50" target, and why women should aim for 40 to 50. Brady also lays out how the brain itself gates your fitness through myokine signaling, why the one to two hours after training may matter more than sleep for adaptation, and the truth about "non-responders" and the IGF binding protein biology behind trainability. Then the protocols: why the Norwegian 4x4 beats Tabata for VO2 max, how sauna and post-exercise ketones amplify the same session, why sleep consistency beats sleep duration, and the single weekly workout Brady says everyone should be doing for both VO2 max and brain health over the next decade.

Quinn Jacobson is an artist, author, and scholar working where creativity meets the fact of mortality. His practice draws from art, philosophy, psychology, anthropology, theology and history, not to stack disciplines but to probe a single stubborn question: how do humans live with the knowledge that everything they love will one day disappear? Through painting, historical photographic processes, and writing, he examines the subtle strategies--both deliberate and unconscious--that people use to soften, divert, or manage the anxiety that comes with being temporary. He has written and published nine books including: Glass Bones: Art Mortality and the Human Mind (2026) (the subject of this podcast); In the Shadow of Sun Mountain: The Psychology of Othering and the Origins of Evil (2026); Rupture: The Creative Response to Death Anxiety (Fall 2026); Chemical Pictures (2020) and others. Quinn also produces an ongoing video series: The Creative Mind & Mortality: Artists & Anxiety on his YouTube channel. The project examines how creatives metabolize their existential struggles through making, in contrast to what Otto Rank called the artiste manque--those who feel the same pressure of existence but lack a generative outlet.

**[Inspiring]**We are absolutely thrilled to share this outstanding and thought-provoking exposition on one of the most pivotal and revealing subjects in all of Scripture: the true nature of the Devil and Satan. As Christadelphians, we are committed to a careful, verse-by-verse examination of God's Word, and this chapter—Chapter 16 from our series on what we believe and preach—offers a wonderfully insightful look at a topic that is so often misunderstood.This presentation is a wonderful journey through the New Testament, guided by the original Greek and Hebrew, to uncover the real meaning behind the words *diabolos* and *Satan*. We explore the profound and often-overlooked truth that the Old Testament is completely silent on a personal, supernatural devil, and that the emphasis of the New Testament points us to a powerful, revelatory conclusion: the devil is the personification of human sinfulness, the lusts of the flesh, and the corporate wickedness of the world.Join us as we trace this compelling thread through Scripture, from the temptation in the wilderness to the ultimate victory of Christ. We examine how Jesus, by partaking of flesh and blood, destroyed him that had the power of death—that is, the devil—and how His sinless life broke the power of sin and opened the way to salvation. This is a truly inspiring and clarifying study that will strengthen your understanding of the Gospel and the nature of the battle we all face.---###
In this episode of See See by Ceci, Dr Stephen Cave, philosopher of technology, intelligence and the human quest to outlive death, joins us in our Berlin studio. At heart, this episode turns on two questions most of us would sooner leave undisturbed: why do human beings insist on ranking one another, and why can we not make our peace with the fact that we die? Academic Director of the Leverhulme Centre for the Future of Intelligence and Co-Director of the Institute for Technology and Humanity, both at the University of Cambridge, Dr Cave took his PhD in philosophy at Cambridge before spending the better part of a decade as a British Foreign Office diplomat. He is the author of Immortality: The Quest to Live Forever and How It Drives Civilization, a New Scientist Book of the Year, and, with the philosopher John Martin Fischer, Should You Choose to Live Forever?: A Debate. He is also co-editor of AI Narratives, Imagining AI and Feminist AI, all published by Oxford University Press. In this wide-ranging conversation, Dr Cave traces the idea of "intelligence" across two and a half thousand years, from Aristotle's "natural slaves" to Francis Galton's invention of both eugenics and the IQ test, showing how so slender a concept came to serve as the perfect instrument for justifying patriarchy, colonialism and scientific racism. It is precisely this buried history, he argues, that explains the dread super-intelligent machines now inspire in us. The real peril, he suggests, lies not in what artificial intelligence might do to us, but in the deep-seated biases and failings already entrenched our societies, that is, in what we might be tempted to do to one another with it: in surveillance, in the automation of labour, and, above all, in the quiet erosion of the human relationships that hold a society together and lend our lives their meaning. He then turns to mortality: the four stories every civilisation tells itself to outwit death, why a genuine immortality would prove a curse rather than a gift, and how our very finitude is the thing that makes a life worth living. From the Epic of Gilgamesh to Borges's deathless troglodytes, from Dorian Gray to the laboratories where great fortunes are now spent in pursuit of longer life, he asks what such a life is truly worth if it is not also a life of meaning, and warns that "work, scroll, repeat" is no less hollow at two hundred than at eighty. He arrives, in the end, at something disarmingly simple: an answer that has rather less to do with intelligence than we might expect, and everything to do with finitude, and with what, and whom, a life is spent upon. With reflections from the philosopher and cognitive scientist Paul Thagard on whether a machine can ever truly care; from the posthumanist scholar N. Katherine Hayles on the human aura in the age of the deep fake and the promised revision of the Enlightenment; from the drummer, composer and Berklee professor Terri Lyne Carrington on music and the eternal present; from the historian Philip Matyszak on the Roman afterlife and the building of "moral muscles"; and from the cognitive neuropsychologist Alfonso Caramazza on the remarkable flexibility of the human mind. This is an episode about power and the stories it tells to justify itself; about the older stories we tell to cheat death; and about a quiet, radical proposition: that to be human is not to be the cleverest thing in the room, but to know that our days are numbered, and to spend them building and delighting in our bonds with one another.
Summary In this episode, Andy sits down with Tom Rath, one of the most respected researchers on wellbeing and human potential, author of What's the Point? Turning Your Purpose Into a Superpower. Tom argues that we can be incredibly busy while slowly drifting away from what matters most, optimizing our schedules while our lives quietly leak away. Andy and Tom explore why "follow your passion" can be harmful advice, how status seeking becomes career quicksand, and why our smartphones may be one of the greatest threats to purposeful living. They also discuss how many of us inherit ambitions from our parents that we never consciously chose, and how an honest awareness of mortality can sharpen our clarity, intentionality, and sense of purpose. Rather than treating purpose as one grand calling, Tom reframes it as something we create in small moments throughout the day. If you're looking for a practical, and honestly a little uncomfortable, guide to leading and living with more purpose, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "Here's what I know with absolute certainty: you're wasting most of your day. Not because you're lazy, but because you've never asked the right question. You're so busy being busy that you've forgotten to ask why. You're optimizing your schedule while your life leaks away, hour by hour in meetings that don't matter and tasks that won't be remembered next week, let alone next year." "If you fail to do those things in a day and take that initiative and have those meaningful and purposeful conversations, and you put those off until tomorrow, tomorrow never really comes because we get into that responsive mode." "Passion by definition starts with you, and it's a little self-oriented, whereas I would argue purpose by definition has an other orientation to it, which is a much better idea for anchoring your energy in a day." "If you're not connecting back with the impact that it made on one person that day, it fails to kind of count in the way we motivate ourselves and think about our work on a daily basis." "I would argue that 90% of the purpose in life is built in those moments, not in some epiphany on a sunny day." "I would estimate that at least 80% of people, maybe 90%, make it all the way to the very end of their career in their life without ever seeing what they could have been best at in life." "Even as managers and leaders, if we don't take care of our own health and wellbeing first, we just have no shot at even being our best for other people that we manage." "There's always someone making twice as much as you or 10 times as much as you, and there's always somebody with more followers or more listeners or more readers or whatever it might be." "The eulogy virtues are about what am I doing today so I'll be a better dad, a better husband, a better friend, to help readers, to help people with the products I'm working on." "I would argue that 80% of people I see out in public today, out in the wild, are essentially working for their smartphone." "Their smartphone's running their life, and they're the ones salivating like one of Pavlov's dogs every time the darn thing blinks or buzzes or vibrates, right?" "Having your phone out sends an implicit message to the other person that the little black box on the table matters more than the other person, and it degrades the quality of the conversation." "The one thing we've all got in common is we have today to try and do some things that serve a purpose and help another person, and if you miss that opportunity, it's gone." "None of them, none of the headstones say anything about those kind of resume virtues that we were talking about."

Go follow my new podcast 2 Dudes 1 Scene Podcast with Dan Bollen. And follow my IG @thiswasthescene Small Towns Burn a Little Slower was a Minneapolis/St. Paul band that blended emo, indie rock, and pop punk into a sound that felt both melodic and emotionally raw. Formed in 2002, they quickly built a loyal following through relentless touring and releases on Rise Records, Triple Crown Records, and Dead Letter Records. Their 2005 full length, Mortality as Home Entertainment, earned them recognition from Alternative Press as one of its "100 Bands You Should Know About." Their music paired soaring hooks with introspective lyrics, making them a standout in the mid 2000s emo scene alongside many of the era's rising bands. Although they called it a day in 2008, their catalog has continued to find new listeners and remains a favorite among fans of heartfelt, guitar driven punk and emo. Chitty from Houston Calls mentioned them on his interview so I gave them a listen, dug it, got them on the Zoom, and this is what we chat about: The Minnesota scene The bread theft Getting on Rise Records Their first tour being 3 months long Triple Crown Records Recording with Ed Rose Auditioning for Drive Thru Myspace Kind of getting screwed by Immortal Records And a ton more Ryan has a new EP so go check it out.

In a world racing toward smarter machines, empathy speakers and authors Rob Volpe and Maria Ross get curious in this limited subseries about what only humans can feel, do, and be — and why that's our greatest competitive advantage. Enjoy this limited subseries on The Empathy Edge.Mortality, Impermanence & Why It Drives EverythingWe may be the only species that lives with the conscious knowledge of our own death. Maria and Rob sit with an uncomfortable truth of human existence: that we are finite, and that knowledge shapes how we love, create, grieve, and find meaning. Something AI cannot even register.We explore what it means to be a time-malleable species - aware of the past, present, and future in ways no other animal appears to be - and we are most when time starts to run out. We look at evidence of grief in elephants and chimps, asking whether mourning requires mortality awareness or whether it's something else. Rob asks Maria about her own 2008 near-death experience from a brain aneurysm, and together they wrestle with the near-death experience as a pivot point: the moment when abstract knowledge of death becomes real, and life suddenly looks completely different. To access the episode transcript, go to www.TheEmpathyEdge.com and search by episode title."One of the fundamental aspects of the human experience is knowing that death's coming, but we all, as humans, deal with that knowledge very differently." — Rob Volpe Episode References: Rob's project: Cross-generational conversations: form.typeform.com/to/Mf5GDlYTRob's newsletter: Hardwired to be afraid: readingbetweenthelines.beehiiv.com/p/the-only-thing-we-have-to-fear-is-the-story-fear-tells-usThe Empathy Edge:Ashley Jones: How to Courageously Lead and Support Through GriefStephanie Sarazin: What Is Ambiguous Grief and How To Show UpRon Gura: How Technology Helps People Navigate Grief and LossJane Goodall Institute on chimp grief: news.janegoodall.org/2019/07/24/now-we-must-redefine-man-or-accept-chimpanzees-ashumansKara Swisher Wants to Live Forever: cnn.com/kara-swisher-wants-to-live-foreverSan Junipero episode: Black Mirror: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_JuniperoRebooting My Brain by Maria RossMy Stroke of Insight by Jill Bolte TaylorThe Tibetan Book of the DeadUpload Washington Post:Perspective piece by a hospice worker: wapo.st/4oPoZGp7 Things to Know about Death, per Death Doulas: wapo.st/4oSLOZUAbout Maria Ross: Maria Ross is a speaker, author, empathy strategist, and host of The Empathy Edge podcast, now in its sixth year.

Madonna is 68. Her new music reflects something all of us eventually face: mortality. After decades of projecting strength and invincibility, she's speaking more openly about aging, loss, and what it means to grow older after losing her brother. It raises a question we all spend too much time avoiding: Why do we devote so much of our lives to things that ultimately don't matter? Politics. Social media outrage. Money. Fame. Status. We chase all of it while the one thing none of us can stop is time. One of the world's most famous biohackers spent millions trying to reverse aging—only to develop a serious autoimmune disease. It's a reminder that no amount of money, technology, or science can make us immortal. So if we can't beat death…how should we live? Today's episode explores the only issue every human being shares: how to make the most of the time we have before it's gone. Also on today's show: • Why aren't Democrats demanding more answers about Mitch McConnell's health? • Is it finally time for Graham Platner to step aside?

Ecclesiastes 12 confronts the reality of aging, mortality, and the urgency of turning toward God while there is still time. Solomon uses vivid pictures of the body's decline to remind us that strength, ability, and earthly comforts are temporary. Rather than causing despair, this truth becomes an invitation to repentance, wisdom, and a life centered on God now. Solomon teaches that true wisdom comes through trustworthy instruction, correction, and lived experience. Life is not just something to study but a gift to enjoy through love, gratitude, relationships, and obedience. The final call is simple: fear God, love Him fully, love others deeply, and allow Christ to transform a self-focused life into one marked by generosity, patience, and enduring love.
“You know when you interview someone and you know they're gonna be a star?” Chioma asks Chloe on today's episode of the podcast. For Chioma, that moment came in the winter of 2020 when she first interviewed Anok Yai for the April Global Runway cover. Back then Yai was just at the beginning of her career, and now six years later, in celebration of her June British Vogue cover story, Chioma chatted with her again, this time for the podcast. With couture just around the corner, Yai is working out and journaling but the couture schedule is much more laid back. She's grateful for the more open schedule as well as for the intricate pieces she gets to model. Recalling an Alexander McQueen show which she considers one of the most distinct she tells Chioma that upon looking at the dress she remarked “I can't believe a human being made this.” The British Vogue profile, written by British Vogue's Beauty and Wellness Director Funmi Fetto, explores a recent difficult chapter in Yai's life in which she became seriously ill. Yai becomes emotional, talking to Chioma about that challenging period. “While I was in the hospital, I wasn't really thinking about my career at all. And then there was one day when I was feeling frail. I remember thinking, "Oh, I could pass away right now, and there's nothing I can do about it."” “It took a while for me to find an understanding of why,” she says. But it has also given her a new lease on life and a perspective for how precious and fragile life is, ‘I respect what I was put through.I look at life with whole new eyes.” Recovery was a slow road but she credits her friends and family for supporting her through that period. They also talk about the shoot itself and being on set with two of her closest collaborators, photographer Rafael Pavarotti and hair stylist Jawara, as well as both of her parents—a family affair! Also on today's episode, Chloe and Chioma share about their recent mini vacations to Il Pellicano, Italy and Charleston, South Carolina respectively and look ahead to this weekend which might contain the wedding of the century: Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce at Madison Square Garden.

Theme: Preparing for Life's Storms (personal, relational, spiritual)Hosts introduce the Moral Support Podcast live session and explain it's a conversation between two friends that airs on streaming platforms (Spotify, Apple) — listeners can find episodes there. The central lesson: storms (external crises, personal struggles, grief, loss) are inevitable for everyone, so the question is not “will a storm come?” but “am I built and prepared for the storm?” Practical metaphor: prepare for storms the way you prepare for weather (umbrellas, supplies) and the way lighthouses are built during calm seas so they withstand storms — build stability before crisis hits. Distinction of storm types: external storms (events around you), internal storms (fear, anxiety, intrusive thoughts), spiritual storms, and storms that arise from our own choices/neglect; each can overlap and affect mind, body, emotions, and relationships. Key takeaways: Expect difficulty rather than be surprised by it; anticipatory preparation (stress inoculation) helps you handle hardship better. Preparation includes memorizing Scripture, regular prayer, grounding in truth, and spiritual practices so you can access truth quickly when intrusive or fearful thoughts arise. Mental techniques: observe your thoughts (create cognitive distance), ask “Is this helping me or hurting me?” and replace unhelpful thoughts with truth (word replacement therapy). Specific coping tools and why they workScripture memorization as “storm prep”: having Scripture readily available allows immediate replacement of fearful thoughts, rather than searching for a verse in crisis. Whole Armor metaphor: put on truth, righteousness, the helmet of salvation, shield of faith, sword of the Spirit so you have both defensive and offensive spiritual resources while maintaining feet shod with peace. Cognitive distancing: label a thought (“this is a thought I'm having”), step outside the “jar” so you can see the thought's origin (memory, stress response) and decide whether to water or starve it. Grounding techniques in sensory awareness (notice sounds, chair under you, clock) to re-anchor in the present when overwhelmed; this pulls you out of catastrophic imagining. Gratitude practice (journaling/regular thankful observation) reshapes attention: training your brain to look for positives increases detection of good things and counters the reticular activation system that amplifies negatives. Research and experiential claims were both invoked in the talk. Mental health and therapyHosts affirm therapy (pro-therapy), note prior stigma, and recommend therapy as an available help that doesn't replace spiritual practices — “get a therapist, but don't see a therapist before you see God” summarizes the integration of supports. Holistic view: struggles show up across physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional domains; a problem beginning in one domain commonly bleeds into the others, so fight on multiple fronts. Decision-making in stormsPrinciple: emotions are high and judgment is often low during storms; therefore pre-decide key responses where possible — determine ahead of time how you will act so you don't make irreversible choices in a highly emotional state. The “decision to not decide” is itself a decision; the remedy is preparing choices in advance and practicing responses so you can act wisely when pressured. Recovery and resilience after stormsSurviving can be simple persistence: sometimes resilience is sustained holding on — continued prayer, Scripture, and faith practice rather than dramatic accomplishments. Testimonies referenced holding on through miscarriage and grief by clinging to trust in God. Rebuild stronger: post-storm assessment reveals vulnerabilities; when rebuilding, reinforce the weak points so you don't repeat the same failures (build back stronger and wiser). Practical, actionable steps (daily habits to prepare)Memorize and rehearse Scripture lines that counter fear (examples referenced: “God has not given me the spirit of fear…” and “No weapon formed against me shall prosper”) so you can quote them quickly in crisis. Daily spiritual disciplines: read the Word, pray, put on spiritual “armor” each day so you're habitually prepared rather than reactive. Cognitive practice: when a negative thought appears, ask “Is this helping me or hurting me?” and “Is this true or a lie?” — then either replace it or let it go. Practice pausing and creating distance from the thought. Sensory grounding: name five things you can hear, feel, or see to return to present reality when anxiety spikes. Gratitude journaling: write daily simple thanks (start small) to rewire attention toward positives. Get support: form a “moral support partner,” bring a notebook to church, highlight and personalize scriptures, and consider therapy when needed (therapy + spiritual practice). Warnings and important distinctionsNot every negative moment is demonic or spiritual — some storms are natural, some are consequences of neglect or poor choices, and some are intentionally allowed by God for reasons beyond present understanding; discernment matters. Avoid making life-altering decisions in the heat of crisis; instead rely on pre-made decisions or wait for clarity when possible. Stigma around counseling is decreasing; therapy is framed as a helpful, legitimate avenue of care that complements spiritual practice. Mindset shifts emphasizedYou are not your thoughts; you are the thinker — adopt the posture of gatekeeper, not captive, of your mental life. Mortality awareness (Memento Mori) gives perspective: recognizing life's brevity helps prioritize what truly matters and avoid wasting energy on small battles. Weakness can qualify you for God's strength — vulnerability does not disqualify you from being helped or chosen for endurance. Short checklist to “be built for the storm”Daily: Scripture reading + memorize at least one fighting verse; prayer and putting on spiritual armor. Weekly: practice gratitude journaling; review decisions you may face and pre-decide responses to likely triggers. As needed: use grounding (name senses) during acute anxiety; reach out for a moral-support partner; consider therapy when struggles exceed personal coping. Encouragement and closing convictionsYou are not alone in storms — maintain the posture that Jesus (the speakers' anchor) is “in the boat” and present with you; stay connected to anchors (truth, community, practices) and hold on. Storms refine and form character; surviving them and rebuilding intentionally yields greater strength and wisdom for future storms. Final exhortation from the session: you can make it through your storm — hold on, do what you know to do, prepare in advance, and build back stronger.

Mortality and the RAGE OF ACHILLES. Guest: Professor Emily Wilson. The conclusion of the Iliad explores the resolution of Achilles' rage following the death of Hector. Initially, Achilles attempts to prolong Hector's humiliation by dragging his body behind a chariot and refusing to allow a proper burial. However, the funeral games for Patroclus mark a shift toward maturity, as Achilles provides a space for competition that does not end in death. He even shows a degree of grace—or perhaps a subtle insult—by awarding Agamemnon a prize without a contest. The poem finishes with a humanitarian pause that allows the Trojans to bury Hector, bookending the story with funerals. The final voices are those of mourning women, emphasizing the shared human experience of grief and the inevitable suffering that follows war. Wilson concludes that the Iliad is fundamentally about the struggle to accept mortality, a theme that has provided comfort and insight to readers for over 2,700 years. 8
Mortality and the End of the Iliad. Guest: Professor Emily Wilson. The final stages of the Iliad focus on Achilles' intense grief and the rituals surrounding death. Following the violent funeral pyre for Patroclus, Achilles organizes funeral games, which Wilson suggests represent his growing realization that all mortals are ultimately "losers" in the face of death. These games provide a new model for competition where skillful men can win prizes without the conflict ending in the destruction of society. A significant moment of reconciliation—or perhaps a "sick burn"—occurs when Achilles gives Agamemnon a prize for spear-throwing without requiring him to compete, acknowledging Agamemnon's status while potentially mocking his habit of taking things he did not earn. The poem notably concludes not with the fall of Troyor the Trojan Horse, but with the voices of three women—Andromache, Hecuba, and Helen—singing laments. Their grief highlights the future of enslavement and loss facing the survivors. This ending, marked by a humanitarian pause for Hector's funeral, underscores the poem's central theme: the universal struggle to accept human mortality. 1
Privateers and the Deadly Reality of British Prison Ships. Guest: Professor Richard Bell. Privateers were government-sanctioned pirates who caused significant economic damage to the British while the Continental Navystruggled. William Russell, a schoolteacher, joined a privateering vessel but was captured and imprisoned in the HMS Jersey, a floating "black hole" in Brooklyn Bay. Mortality rates on these ships reached fifty percent, making them the deadliest sites of the entire war. Despite the risks, over 50,000 Americans served on privateering missions, illustrating the global commercial impact of the Revolution and the high human cost for those captured by British forces. 21803 OHIO
