    What would it look like to live a life guided by pleasure, rooted in connection, and in service to the Earth?In this episode of Moonbeaming, Sarah Faith Gottesdiener is joined by artist, activist, and mystic Samantha Roddick to explore the sacred nature of sex, eroticism, and embodiment—and how reconnecting to our life force can help us live more fully, more freely, and more in alignment with our true values.Together, Sarah and Sam dive into the archetype of the Nine of Pentacles, examining how real abundance is built through intimacy, integrity, and interdependence. Sam shares her path from reshaping erotic culture through her London-based store Coco de Mer, to supporting Indigenous-led resistance movements in Brazil. Along the way, she reminds us that culture is a form of protection, and that pleasure (at its core) is a political and spiritual act.In this episode, you'll learn:Why eroticism is a sacred expression of life forceHow pleasure, activism, and embodiment can coexistWhat it means to decolonize intimacy and reclaim your wildnessHow Indigenous wisdom offers a blueprint for the futureThe power of slowing down, listening, and remembering who you areThis is an invitation to reimagine success, reclaim your sensuality, and return to the sacredness of being alive.oin the Moon Studio community:Join the Moon Studio Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themoonstudioBuy the 2025 Many Moons Lunar Planner: https://moon-studio.co/collections/all-products-excluding-route/products/many-moons-2025Subscribe to our newsletter: https://moon-studio.co/pages/newsletterFind Sarah on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gottesss/Upcoming Events [London]: August 9th: Intuition For Right Now: Regain Trust, Build Confidence, and Heal Old WoundsAugust 10th: Integrating the Gifts of Your Spirit: An Archetypal Deep Dive and Regression with Sarah Faith Gottesdiener

A few episodes ago, episode 212, I conversed with John Beggs about how criticality might be an important dynamic regime of brain function to optimize our cognition and behavior. Today we continue and extend that exploration with a few other folks in the criticality world. Woodrow Shew is a professor and runs the Shew Lab at the University of Arkansas. Keith Hengen is an associate professor and runs the Hengen Lab at Washington University in St. Louis Missouri. Together, they are Hengen and Shew on a recent review paper in Neuron, titled Is criticality a unified setpoint of brain function? In the review they argue that criticality is a kind of homeostatic goal of neural activity, describing multiple properties and signatures of criticality, they discuss multiple testable predictions of their thesis, and they address the historical and current controversies surrounding criticality in the brain, surveying what Woody thinks is all the past studies on criticality, which is over 300. And they offer a account of why many of these past studies did not find criticality, but looking through a modern lens they most likely would. We discuss some of the topics in their paper, but we also dance around their current thoughts about things like the nature and implications of being nearer and farther from critical dynamics, the relation between criticality and neural manifolds, and a lot more. You get to experience Woody and Keith thinking in real time about these things, which I hope you appreciate. Shew Lab. Hengen Lab.

    Summary In this conversation, S Anthony Thomas explores the complexities of lying, particularly in personal relationships and social situations. He shares anecdotes about people lying in front of others, the dynamics of flirting, and the concept of acceptable lies. Through humorous and relatable stories, he emphasizes the importance of honesty and the often absurd nature of lies, especially when they are transparent to everyone involved. Takeaways People often lie even when it's obvious they're lying. Lying to a doctor is futile; they know the truth. Flirting can lead to misunderstandings in relationships. Acceptable lies exist in certain social situations. Honesty is crucial in maintaining trust in relationships. Eavesdropping can lead to uncomfortable situations. Lies can escalate tensions in personal interactions. Communication is key to resolving misunderstandings. People may lie to protect feelings, but it can backfire. Understanding the context of a lie is important. Sound bites "You dag gone right." "I was a little bit nosy." "We know you're lying. Stop it."

    Real Life This week, Steven finally found a superhero movie that didn't make him want to throw his popcorn at the screen. Superman (2025) has arrived, and according to him, it's the best take we've had on the character in years. No origin story nonsense, just straight into Supes doing good and being good. James Gunn gets it—Superman is an immigrant, a boy scout, and a damn firefighter (not a cop). The moral core is there, the cape looks good, and apparently, if you hate it, it's because it's “woke”? Whatever. Steven liked it. You probably will too. Meanwhile, Devon has been dodging storms, not floods. He lives far from the Texas chaos but has had his fair share of wet weekends. That hasn't stopped him from grinding away at backyard renovations. Fake grass is coming soon. In the process, he's tearing out ivy and ground brush—bad news for copperhead snakes, which are venomous, and good news for anyone walking around barefoot. Speaking of venom: Ben brings us the delightful fact that some birds are venomous. No, really. There are birds that store toxins from insects and plants and use them to defend themselves. The pitohui says hi. Nature is weird. More bird venom facts here. Devon also dove into evolution this week, thanks to a Hank Green video about the great leap from water to land. Turns out the hardest problem evolution ever solved might just be how to turn gilled swimmers into four-limbed land mammals. Spoiler alert: it involves lungs, fins, and a lot of time. Watch the video here. Ben, when not thinking about venomous birds, asked an important question: What do people do for fun in Palmdale? The answer, apparently, is “hang out near electrical poles.” He also recommends the board game The Red Dragon Inn for those nights when you're too tired to fight dragons and just want to drink with them instead. Game info here. Future or Now Only Steven showed up for this segment, and he brought ancient lion maulings. A new article from ScienceDaily describes a skeleton found in a Roman cemetery in York—with bite marks matching a lion's jaw. It's our first archaeological evidence of gladiator-style combat between a human and a lion, which is equal parts horrifying and fascinating. Steven points out that if curses were real, this would be prime material—digging up gladiator graves seems like an express ticket to ghost lion attacks. Book Club This week, we read The Last Question by Isaac Asimov, a story about entropy, immortality, the heat death of the universe, and one computer's ongoing existential crisis. Devon raises a solid point: the story's final punch line hits different if you grew up with the Judeo-Christian idea of divine creation. If not? It still works, but maybe not quite the same way. You could easily sub in other creation myths—or just throw in some Terminators and call it a sci-fi remix. Ben had Siri read him the story aloud via Mobile Safari and recommends the experience. Read it here or watch this animated version. Next week: There Will Come Soft Rains by Ray Bradbury, a classic tale of loneliness, technology, and automatic breakfast machines still flipping eggs long after humanity is gone. You can read the story here or listen to a reading. Oh, and if you missed it, Captain Kirk is coming back—sort of. He's being resurrected for Star Trek: The Last Starship, a new comic set in the far future. We have thoughts. Mostly confused ones.

In this mind-blowing episode, Tara sits down with Regina and Kristin, the investigative duo behind the Normal Curves podcast, to explore the truth behind the so-called "vitamin D deficiency epidemic." Spoiler: it may have been manufactured by outdated, flawed science—and driven by people with major conflicts of interest. This is a must-listen for anyone taking vitamin D or worried about their levels. If you've been told your D is “low,” this episode might change everything. In this episode we cover: How the original vitamin D reference ranges were set (and how they were quietly reversed in 2024) Why testing vitamin D routinely may be doing more harm than good The role of conflicts of interest in shaping clinical guidelines What the latest randomized controlled trials (RCTs) actually show about supplementing vitamin D for disease prevention Why observational data can mislead us, and how low D might be the consequence—not the cause—of illness How much sun you actually need to make enough vitamin D (hint: it's a lot less than you think) Why the “low D” narrative stuck around even after the science was overturned If you're thinking about taking D, already taking D, or have been told your vitamin D is "low" (it likely isn't) then this one is for you.   WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE -https://www.youtube.com/@TaraThorne   Regina Nuzzo is a Gallaudet professor, award-winning science journalist, and co-host of the Normal Curves podcast.

    If life's been feeling loud, fast, or just a little off—you're not alone. Maybe it's the constant hum of traffic, the never-ending Teams messages, or the way your phone seems permanently attached to your hand. Your brain's jumping from one thing to the next, and even when you do get a break, you don't actually feel rested. Something feels like it's missing… but you can't quite name it. If any of that rings true for you, I'm inviting you to come back to NATURE—not as a hobby or a once-a-year escape, but as a daily rhythm and a steady source of peace. On this episode, we're talking about how getting outside can shift from being a “nice to have” to something you genuinely crave (and need). Because you might not even realize how much you need it—until you do. → Want my support in designing a nature-focused vacation?
