The Secret Rooms Where Your Seafood's Fate Gets Decided

Speak Up For The Ocean Blue

Between a fishing vessel out on the water and a can of tuna in your grocery cart, there is a whole hidden system deciding whether you should trust what is on the label. In this episode of the How to Protect the Ocean Podcast, host Andrew Lewin breaks down how that system actually works, and why the blue check mark on your seafood means something real. Andrew starts with the RFMO, a regional fisheries management organization: a treaty-based body where countries with a stake in a fishery legally bind themselves to cooperate on how it is managed. He walks through where these bodies actually meet, how governance decisions travel from those rooms to your dinner table through the International Seafood Sustainability Foundation's transparency and accountability model (audited companies, public compliance reports, vessels scored on public lists), and how the Marine Stewardship Council's certification functions as an eco-label with real financial weight behind it, including why MSC pulled its certification of the Maine lobster fishery twice, in August 2020 and again in December 2022. The throughline is that no single piece of this system works alone. ISSF does the unglamorous, ongoing work of auditing companies and tracking vessels. MSC turns that evidence into the single label a shopper actually sees in the seafood aisle. This episode sets up tomorrow's interview with an ISSF representative who has spent decades inside these negotiations and will walk through what that cooperation actually looks like in the room. Takeaways: A regional fisheries management organization (RFMO) is a treaty-based body that turns "we should manage this fishery responsibly" into an enforceable, multi-country agreement. Eco-labels like MSC certification carry real financial weight. Losing one can force a fishery to change its practices, even when the science on the underlying risk is still ambiguous. The International Seafood Sustainability Foundation (ISSF) does not certify fisheries. It builds the audited evidence trail, including annual compliance reports and the ProActive Vessel Register, that the Marine Stewardship Council draws on to certify them. As of ISSF's November 2024 compliance report, participating companies scored 99.1% compliance across 33 conservation measures, while PVR-registered vessels scored 76% compliance across 12 vessel-specific measures as of December 31, 2023, a gap worth naming. Transparency at the vessel level is what lets retailers like Costco and Walmart hold to their own sustainability commitments, and what lets consumers trust a label instead of just a company's own claim.

What should AI actually do for us, rather than simply what can it do?In this episode of Ethics and Innovation by Oxford+ brought to you by Equinox, host Susannah de Jager speaks with Dr Caroline Green, Director of Research at Oxford's Institute for Ethics in AI, about care as one of the defining ethical questions of the AI age. Caroline explains what care means inside a regulated social care system, why OpenAI and Anthropic have started borrowing the language of caregiving, and where she thinks that borrowing should worry us.The conversation moves between the very specific and the very broad: carebots collecting data while they chat to residents, the Oxford framework that helps providers question technology suppliers properly, a week in Dharamsala learning how Tibetan communities use AI to preserve their language, and the civic AI work she is developing with Ambassador Audrey Tang. New Stanford research published this month found that people with smaller social networks who turn to AI companions for emotional support report lower well-being, which makes Caroline's warning about caring-sounding systems timely. Two phrases anchor the episode: serving, not harming, and connection, not convenience.(00:00) - Welcome to Oxford+ (01:42) - What Care Actually Means (03:55) - Why Big Tech Has Adopted the Language of Care (05:53) - Job Displacement and the Doom Narrative (08:15) - Dharamsala, Monasteries and Tibetan Language AI (11:59) - What Makes Us Distinct as Humans (14:26) - The Oxford Framework for Responsible AI in Care (17:13) - Carebots and the Line between Task and Relationship (23:26) - Ageing Societies and the Rights of Older People (26:54) - Young People, Trust and Over-Reliance on AI (33:16) - Civic AI and the Ethics of Care (37:36) - Hope, Harm and the Civic Space Dr. Caroline Green: Dr Caroline Emmer De Albuquerque Green is Director of Research and Head of Public Engagement at the Institute for Ethics in AI, University of Oxford, where she leads the Accelerator Fellowship Programme. She is one of the UK's leading voices on the responsible use of AI in health and social care. Caroline co-led the Oxford Project on the Responsible Use of Generative AI in Social Care and wrote its April 2025 white paper setting out a value-led approach, work that led to the AI in Care Alliance whose vision and priorities were agreed at the second AI in Social Care Summit in March 2026. She also leads Truth and Trust: AI and Young People, a research collaboration with the BBC announced in February 2026.

Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) has become an increasingly popular tool in oral surgery, but what is the best way to incorporate it into your practice? In this episode, Dr. Grant Stucki welcomes oral and maxillofacial surgeon Dr. Anish Gupta back to the podcast to discuss how PRF can enhance procedures ranging from third molar extraction to ridge preservation, sinus lifts, and bone grafting. Rather than presenting it as a cure-all, Dr. Gupta explains where PRF offers meaningful benefits, from improving soft tissue healing and creating easier-to-handle "sticky bone" to reducing post-operative concerns and simplifying graft placement. He also shares practical advice on implementation, equipment, team training, and protocol development. The conversation concludes with a discussion of liposomal bupivacaine (Exparel®) and its role in supporting opioid-free pain management after surgery. Tune in for practical insights to help refine your surgical workflow and patient care!Key Points From This Episode:=Introduction to platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) and how it differs from platelet-rich plasma (PRP).Using PRF for third molars and extraction sockets.Creating "sticky bone” with PRF to improve graft handling and stability.Where PRF helps most, like soft tissue healing, and why it isn't a cure-all.Dr. Gupta's PRF approach to third molar extraction and ridge preservation.How PRF reduces post-op concerns.Why patients and staff respond positively to PRF.Incorporating PRF into third molar surgery protocols.Why Dr. Gupta moved away from routine chlorhexidine use.Using StellaLife® alongside PRF to support post-op recovery.Practical tips for implementing PRF in a surgical practice.Emerging PRF applications and future directions.Resources for learning how to implement PRF and training your team.Using Exparel® to support opioid-free pain management.Setting realistic expectations for PRF and Exparel® outcomes.Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Gupta Oral Surgeon | Lyon Dental Implants And Oral Surgery — https://lyondentalimplants.com/dr-guptaDr. Gupta Email — guptanish@gmail.comStellaLife® VEGA® Oral Care Spearmint Rinse — stellalife.com/products/stellalife-vega-oral-care-sprearmint-rinseDr. Richard J.

Matteo lo usa parlando di musica: il jazz è un genere che lui "bazzica poco" — e Raffaele glielo spiega in diretta. English: to hang around, to be familiar with il fumaiolo — La "ciminiera" delle navi, da cui esce il fumo. Nell'episodio è la parola che i due cercano insieme — non "comignolo", che è quello delle case! — e quelli delle navi Costa sono di un giallo molto preciso: giallo olio di oliva. English: funnel (of a ship) Note dell'episodio ...il motivo è storico e ha un nome solo, Diego Armando Maradona — e con l'Italia assente "non c'era neanche la scelta". Poi la vita inglese: il festival Tramlines che riempie di musica dal vivo tutti i pub di Sheffield, le camminate quotidiane nella campagna di Dronfield dopo venti giorni di siccità, e i club di tiro con l'arco che non rispondono alle mail. Poi la notizia: Raffaele parte, in crociera, da Napoli, sulla Costa Toscana — "una delle più grandi, se non la più grande". E lo dice subito: "non sono proprio tipo da crociera", due crociere in trent'anni, perché cinque ore in una città vogliono dire fare tutto di fretta e perdersi le sere. Però, a conti fatti, "ogni tanto ha il suo perché": tanti posti in una settimana sola, compresi quelli dove non organizzeresti mai una vacanza apposta. E qui arriva la storia che dà il titolo alla puntata. Le crociere italiane nascono dai transatlantici dell'emigrazione: dopo l'Unità d'Italia si partiva in nave per il nuovo mondo, e quando gli aerei svuotarono le traversate, le navi dovettero inventarsi qualcos'altro. Costa Crociere all'inizio non trasportava persone: produceva ed esportava olio d'oliva agli emigrati nelle Americhe, che sentivano la mancanza del pilastro della dieta mediterranea — poi il colpo di genio: "se porto l'olio porto anche le persone", e alle stive si aggiunsero le cabine. I fumaioli delle navi Costa sono ancora oggi di un giallo preciso: giallo olio di oliva. MSC invece nasce a Sorrento dalla più grande flotta cargo: "le due anime delle crociere in Italia". C'è anche una chiusura del cerchio: Barcellona fu il primo viaggio all'estero di Raffaele con sua moglie, nel 2002, quando una guida disse che la Sagrada Família sarebbe stata completata "nel 2025, nel 2026". Ci tornano adesso, con la figlia, a vederla finita — 24 anni dopo. Le impressioni dalla nave arrivano "tra una settimana"; intanto la domanda di Matteo sulla Sagrada Família, e la caccia a chi diceva "il tempo è tiranno", continuano nell'aftershow. Trascrizione Raffaele: [0:24] Rieccoci: buongiorno, Matteo! Matteo: [0:27] Ben ritrovato e ritrovati: che piacere sentirvi tutti. Raffaele: [0:34] Certo. Che bello e abbiamo un sacco di cose da raccontarci. Da dove vogliamo cominciare, Matteo? Matteo: [0:40] E allora direi che possiamo partire da dove eravamo rimasti, ma in realtà non è questa la sezione...

Brad Ryan spent seven and a half years driving across America with his 85-year-old grandmother, visiting all 63 national parks, and quietly healing the wounds his coming out left behind. What started as an adventure became something neither of them expected: a reckoning with family, identity, and the stories gay men tell themselves about who will ever truly accept them.

Key Takeaways: Why Brad didn't come out until college and what his father's reaction cost himHow a camping trip in the Smoky Mountains became the turning point with his grandmotherWhy gay men build elaborate stories about rejection that don't match realityWhat intergenerational connection offers gay men that their own community often can'tHow curiosity instead of judgment transforms even the most broken family relationshipsWhy healing doesn't always look like confrontation — sometimes it looks like a road trip About Brad Brad Ryan is a veterinarian, wildlife conservationist, social media influencer, and writer from southeastern Ohio.

As co-owner of a certified organic farm in Vermont, she brings a hands-on perspective on what really matters in food, soil, and consumer safety.In this episode, we discuss:How marketing labels like “natural” and “wild-caught” can be misleadingWays to prioritize your food budget for the biggest health impactThe truth about greenwashing and how to read between the lines on packagingEasy first steps to reduce toxins in your home without spending a fortuneThe importance of soil health, indoor air quality, and what families should know about furniture, fragrances, and plasticsThe healing power of nature and community, as seen in Amy's transformative retreatsKey TakeawaysPerfection isn't the goal: Small, steady improvements like swapping out a scented laundry detergent for fragrance-free can make a real difference (09:00, 41:08).Not all labels are created equal: “Natural” is a meaningless term, and “wild-caught” is only trustworthy if certified by credible organizations like the MSC (10:07, 44:51).Start with high-impact swaps: If organic isn't in the budget for everything, focus on the “Dirty Dozen” produce and prioritize organic meat and dairy for the biggest benefit (15:14).Fragrances are hidden toxins: Remove air fresheners, plugins, and heavily scented products from your home for an easy, impactful win (28:01, 41:08).Read ingredient lists, not just claims: The real story about what you're buying is on the back of the label (25:39).Our choices matter: Every dollar spent sends a message about what we value, and we wield more power as consumers than we sometimes realize (24:10).Community and nature heal: Amy Hartshorn shares moving stories of how farm retreats and horse therapy have changed lives, showing that holistic change goes beyond our shopping carts (32:07).If today's conversation made you think twice about air freshener, food labels, or what's lurking in your cleaning supply closet, share this episode with a friend or family member who'd benefit from a more informed approach to healthier living.We'd love for you to subscribe to The Late Boomers Podcast wherever you listen don't miss future conversations with experts who help you live your best next chapter.Check out more resources from Amy Hartshorn on greenlivingnow.com, and find her podcast, Green Living Now, for deeper dives and practical guidance.Leave us a review, connect on YouTube, and remember every step towards cleaner living counts, no matter when you start.It's never too late to rethink what's possible!— Cathy & MerryMentioned in this episode:Late Boomers is part of the eWomenPodcastNetwork. eWomenPodcastNetwork

In the biotech industry, advancing cell-based therapies is not just about innovation. It's about solving real gaps where conventional treatments fall short, especially against complex, aggressive tumors.In this episode of the Smart Biotech Scientist Podcast, host David Brühlmann welcomes Jun Yung Woo, Co-Founder of AGEM Bio, who offers an in-depth look at the science and strategy behind engineered mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), with a focus on why glioblastoma is the right proving ground for the platform.Topics discussed:Why glioblastoma is the right Phase I indication: infiltrative growth, immunosuppression, and STING pathway deficiencies that make GBM uniquely suited to the platform (02:43)The surgical workflow: intracavity MSC delivery during tumor resection, oral 5-FC administration, and how engineered cells act as local bioreactors in the resection cavity (04:05)Mechanisms by which engineered MSCs target heterogeneous and invasive tumors through shared vulnerabilities rather than antigen recognition (05:58)Overcoming immune rejection with allogeneic therapies and the unique immunological profile of MSCs (07:32)Manufacturing and scale-up: addressing donor variability, GMP production, and building a reproducible process (09:16)Why GMP manufacturing should be designed in from the earliest stages of research (10:50)Beyond glioblastoma: expanding the platform to other solid tumors, regenerative medicine, and chronic inflammatory disease (11:27)Strategies for international trial expansion and partnerships beyond Singapore (12:41)Reframing MSCs from stem cell therapy to programmable delivery platform: the MSC 2.0 thesis (14:10)Smart insight: The shift Jun Yung articulates is from treating stem cells as the therapy to treating them as programmable therapeutic vehicles. Once you can reliably engineer, manufacture, and preserve their function, the limitation is no longer what the cell naturally does. It becomes what biology you can encode into it. Glioblastoma is the proving ground, and the platform's reach extends to liver cancers, sarcomas, peritoneal malignancies, and chronic inflammatory disease.These episodes expand on the same themes of MSC biology, cell engineering, and the challenges of scaling consistent, functional cell therapies:Episodes 179 - 180 : How Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Are Transforming Care for Diabetes and Autoimmune Diseases with Lindsay DaviesEpisodes 253 - 254: How to Source, Manufacture, and Scale the Earliest Stem Cells for Allogeneic Cell Therapy Without Ethical Barriers with Yuta LeeEpisodes 125 - 126: How to Enhance Cell Engineering Using Mechanical Intracellular Delivery with Armon ShareiEpisodes 129 - 130: Revolutionizing Cell Therapy Manufacturing: Reducing Costs to Reach More Patients with Jason FosterConnect with Jun Yung Woo:LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/junyungwooAGEM Bio website: www.agem.bioEmail: yung@agem.bioSupport the show

What if the answer to solid tumor therapy isn't about making immune cells smarter—but about rethinking what a therapeutic cell can do For years, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have turned heads for their ability to home in on damaged tissue, yet their clinical utility has lagged behind the hype. What would it take to transform MSCs from passive healers into precision vehicles for next-generation cancer treatment?This week, David Brühlmann sits down with Jun Yung Woo, Co-Founder of AGEM Bio, who's devoted nearly two decades to decoding and reimagining the potential of MSCs. From engineering stress-resilient cells to pioneering dual-payload therapeutic platforms, Jun Yung Woo bridges fundamental biology and real-world clinical translation.Topics discussed:The case for understanding cell biology before focusing on process scale-up in bioprocessing (02:38)Jun Yung Woo's personal and scientific journey toward developing engineered MSC therapeutics (04:36)How MSCs sense their environment and exert therapeutic effects via secreted factors, rather than tissue replacement (08:28)Key differences between MSC therapies and immune cell therapies like CAR T cells (10:35)Overview of non-viral engineering platforms, and the importance of intracellular trafficking for modifying MSCs (12:23)Design of AGEM Bio's dual-payload MSC product (cytosine deaminase and interferon beta) to induce highly localized tumor stress and immune activation (14:10)Strategies for controlling MSC targeting and minimizing off-target effects, including the use of prodrug activation and localized cell delivery (17:23)Study results from treating companion animals with engineered MSCs, and observations of tumor regression and possible signs of immune memory (20:29)Open questions about the durability of antitumor responses and future directions for clinical research (22:34)Smart insight: Jun Yung Woo challenges the rush toward bioprocess scale-up, arguing that a deeper understanding of cellular biology should come before manufacturing cells at scale. This episode explores how scaling the wrong biology can derail entire therapeutic platforms—and why aligning process development with cellular function may be critical for clinical success.These episodes expand on the same themes of MSC biology, cell engineering, and the challenges of scaling consistent, functional cell therapies:Episodes 179 - 180 : How Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Are Transforming Care for Diabetes and Autoimmune Diseases with Lindsay DaviesEpisodes 253 - 254: How to Source, Manufacture, and Scale the Earliest Stem Cells for Allogeneic Cell Therapy Without Ethical Barriers with Yuta LeeEpisodes 125 - 126: How to Enhance Cell Engineering Using Mechanical Intracellular Delivery with Armon ShareiEpisodes 129 - 130: Revolutionizing Cell Therapy Manufacturing: Reducing Costs to Reach More Patients with Jason FosterConnect with Jun Yung Woo:LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/junyungwooAGEM Bio website: www.agem.bioEmail: yung@agem.bioSupport the show

Recent reporting in the Washington Post found that Tulsi Gabbard has been taking policy guidance from her guru. We revisit our episode from May 2023, where we lay out Gabbard's lifelong involvement in this cult: What does it mean for a prominent American politician to come into power as the sleeper cell of an eccentric Hindu-American cult? Does she act independently, or has her God-man got her on speed-dial? Can she bridge the divide between left and right with the radiant glow of Krishna consciousness? Joining us today to help answer these questions is Nitai Joseph. He shares some heritage with Gabbard, because he also grew up in a Hare Krishna sect. He holds an MSc. in the Psychology of Coercive Control and has worked across a range of issues connected to ideology and manipulation, including cultic awareness, child sexual abuse prevention, adverse meditation experiences, and organizational ethics and accountability.  Show Notes Tulsi Gabbard, her guru and the mysterious messages that helped shape her political career Gopala Govinda Rama Chant by Jagad Guru Siddhaswarupananda Paramahamsa Chris Butler QAnon Anonymous Episode 211: Tulsi Gabbard P1 (The Cult) feat Mike Prysner QAnon Anonymous Episode 212: Tulsi Gabbard P2 (The Fascist Turn) feat Mike Prysner  Tulsi Gabbard Had a Very Strange Childhood What Does Tulsi Gabbard Believe? | The New Yorker Chris Butler Siddhaswarupananda Paramahamsa: on “freedom” An Insiders Perspective on Tulsi Gabbard and her Guru | by Lalita | Medium  Tulsi Gabbard 2016 Janmashtami Message  ISKCON Abuse Timeline Definition of Betrayal Trauma Theory Archived ex-Hare Krishna message board Nitai can be reached via LinkedIn Learn more about your ad choices.
