Our story tonight is called Outside at Night, with my Dog, and it's a story that you might have read if you have my book, but has never appeared on the podcast before. I picked it to read for you this week in tribute to my own dogs, as we are healing from loss and stories are medicine. It's a story about waking with a loved one when the moon is high. It's also about flower bulbs and a heavy quilt, the scent of the night air as winter arrives and the warmth that comes from being there with the ones you love. Subscribe to our Premium channel.

Welcome back to Beautifully Broken, where healing meets high performance. Today, I'm exploring a truth that's changed everything for me and my clients: we are not broken machines; we are adaptive, conscious beings in dynamic systems of repair.After years of sitting with people navigating complex chronic illness, I've realized that our biology is not just chemical, it's also energetic and informational. Our nervous systems are constantly scanning for safety, and when symptoms arise, they often become the story our brains use to make sense of chaos: “It's my mold,” “It's my MTHFR gene,” “It's my hormones.” These narratives can help us, but they can also trap us.The healing work lies in the yes, and… validating the diagnosis, while remembering we have levers of influence: breath, movement, light, connection, thought, and time in nature. Pattern interrupts, tiny shifts in our inner dialogue and sensory experience, can retrain our physiology, lower inflammation, and awaken resilience. Healing, ultimately, is the art of creating new internal conditions where health can return naturally.This episode is a reminder that you are not a malfunctioning machine, you are a masterpiece in process. Episode Highlights[00:00] – The nervous system as storyteller: how our brains create meaning from illness[01:24] – “I am broken because…”: how health narratives form and when they hold us back[02:47] – Why healing must include biology, energy, and information—not just chemistry[04:15] – The power of breath, cold, heat, light, and thought to change physiology[05:11] – Nature therapy: the most accessible medicine on Earth (and it's free)[06:40] – How fear-based stories become cages and the ego resists the real work[07:32] – Limbic system retraining: the ROI of rewiring your stress response[08:55] – The bridge of true healing: biology meets consciousness[09:45] – Healing isn't fixing; it's changing the conditions for adaptation[10:01] – A closing love letter to your body and its innate intelligenceLinks & ResourcesThe Biological Blueprint Program: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/ Beam Minerals: http://beamminerals.com/beautifullybroken— Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKEN Silver Biotics: bit.ly/3JnxyDD— 30% off with Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKEN LightPathLED: https://lightpathled.pxf.io/c/3438432/2059835/25794— Code: beautifullybroken CatchBio: https://catchbio.com — Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKEN CONNECT WITH FREDDIEWork with Me: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprintWebsite and Store: (http://www.beautifullybroken.world) Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/beautifullybroken.world/) YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@freddiekimmel Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

What intellectual and social paradigms have made atheism seem like a plausible and viable alternative worldview in the 21st century? What factors have contributed to the cultural dissolution of the Christian faith in our time? On the next two episodes of the Profile, we will tackle some of these questions with our guest, author and teaching fellow of the Davenant Institute in Landrum, South Carolina, Dr. Joseph Minich. Minich's 2023 book Bulwarks of Unbelief - Atheism and Divine Absence in a Secular Age explores the thesis that the Industrial Revolution of the 19th century has created intellectual and social plausibility structures for modern-day unbelief. From the Davenant Institute Dr. Joseph Minich Dr. (PhD, The University of Texas at Dallas) is Faculty Chair and Professor of Philosophy at Davenant Hall. As part of his work, he also co-hosts the Pilgrim Faith podcast. The founding editor of Ad Fontes and former Editor-in-Chief of the Davenant Press, he is the author of Enduring Divine Absence (Davenant Press, 2018) and Bulwarks of Unbelief: Atheism and Divine Absence in a Secular Age (Lexham Press, 2023).

For more than 2,000 years, Christians have gathered to lift their voices in song. But have you ever stopped to ask why we sing? As we enter a season when music fills every corner of our lives, there's no better time to reflect on the role of singing in the Christian life. This Christmas, let's reclaim the beauty and purpose of our songs, declaring them with joy and conviction. Let heaven and nature sing—for the Lord is victorious.

In Episode 237, in conversation with Dr. Gillian Lockitch, Scott Fulton reframes "successful aging" as more years, more moments, more money. He unpacks his MEDAC model—Mind, Environment, Diet, Activity, Community—and shows how small, practical tweaks compound: design homes for longevity, manage toxin exposure sensibly, eat for quality/variety/fiber, move all day (not just "exercise"), train balance, and build supportive community. They also explore simple ways to measure what matters and why stepping outside your comfort zone is a powerful aging tool. Scott Fulton is a longevity educator and positive-aging innovator whose work sits at the intersection of health and housing. He teaches adult learners about healthspan and aging (Northwestern, UVA, University of Delaware), created the MEDAC system (Mind, Environment, Diet, Activity, Community), is a member of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine and the True Health Initiative Council, and served as President of the National Aging in Place Council. He and his wife live in Charlottesville, VA, in a demonstration home designed for optimal aging. Timeline: 00:00 – 03:20 | Why "Wealthspan" now Gillian's introduction: aging is inevitable, poor health isn't. Scott's thesis: extend health, life, and financial security—so you can collect more meaningful moments. 03:21 – 09:58 | Designing a home that ages with you One-step entries, wider doors, "free-flow" layouts, smart use of terrain. Beauty + function beats "clinical" design and prevents future injuries/barriers. 09:59 – 18:13 | From big systems to positive aging, Scott's career pivot: apply systems thinking to aging. Against siloed care; for measurable, holistic balance (homeostasis) and innovation that actually changes outcomes. 18:14 – 26:59 | MEDAC: Mind & Environment Stay curious; protect cognition. Shape two environments: your home and your exposures. You can't avoid toxins entirely—reduce risk and diversify behaviors. 27:00 – 31:53 | MEDAC: Diet & Activity Start with quality, add variety, and count fiber. Activity ≠ just workouts: build cardio, strength, balance, and move through the day to fight sedentariness. 31:54 – 40:52 | MEDAC: Community + Resilience & the "one bold thing" rule Social connection protects brain and practical living. Gillian and Scott on mindset, brain training, and choosing something outside your comfort zone to spark growth.

Have you ever experienced the pain of longing, praying, and hoping for something, only to have it slip through your fingers? In this message, Pastor Caleb unpacks Luke 1:5-25, exploring the story of Zechariah and Elizabeth, a couple who were righteous and faithful, yet suffered decades of silent longing and unanswered prayers. Discover the powerful truth that God hears your prayers even when He seems silent, and how His loving discipline is an invitation back to belief. In this sermon, you'll learn: - The Nature of True Faith: Zechariah and Elizabeth were described as blameless and righteous before God. This meant they had inward integrity and were the same person in private as they were in public. - The Tension of the Christian Life: You can be Godly and disappointed, righteous and barren, or blameless and brokenhearted. Faithfulness does not exempt you from heartache. - Two Temptations in the Waiting Room: When you're trying to live faithfully but suffering silently, be careful not to fall into feeling defeated (thinking your pain is payback for sin) or entitled (treating God like a transactional rewards program). - God's Silence is Not His Absence: Even when we feel like He doesn't, God hears our prayers. God broke the personal silence for Zechariah and Elizabeth and the prophetical silence for His people. - The Danger of Unbelief and Discipline as Grace: Zechariah's doubt (unbelief) prompted a loving discipline: nine months of silence. For a genuine follower of Jesus, discipline is not punishment (which was finished on the cross) but a form of grace—an invitation to step back into love and obedience. - The Ultimate Joy of Christmas: The greatest joy Zechariah and Elizabeth found was not in having a child, but in God remembering His people and finally sending His Savior, Jesus Christ. Key Topics Covered: - The Messengers Series: Kicking off the Christmas series by looking at the first messengers of Christmas, specifically the angel Gabriel. - A Personal Story of Loss and Hope: Pastor Caleb's story of naming his stillborn son Gabriel, "God's Messenger of Hope," after the angel. - The Spiritually Dry Season: Zechariah and Elizabeth lived during a 400-year gap where God did not send a prophet or a fresh word. - The Parallel with Elijah: Gabriel's message announced that Zechariah's son, John, would come in the spirit and power of Elijah, paving the way for the long-awaited Savior. - The Consequences of Doubt: Zechariah's questioning, "HOW shall I know this?", revealed a heart full of cynicism, in contrast to Mary's heart of faith. - Discipline and Discipleship: God uses discipline (like a job loss or a hard marriage season) to form us into the image of His Son, teaching us humility and perseverance. - If you are currently feeling stuck in a "waiting room" of life, struggling with doubt, or experiencing a season of discipline, this message will encourage you to trust God's loving heart and respond to the message of hope in Jesus. - Would you like me to share one of the specific application points from the sermon on how to respond to God's voice in a season of discipline or unbelief?

Heaven and Nature Sing, Joy to the World: Chris Dolson | November 30th, 2025
In this solo episode, Brandon breaks down one of the most overlooked drivers of team performance: a leader's ability to understand the true nature of the work their function is responsible for. Most leaders want high performance and a great environment, but few achieve it. Brandon argues that the root cause isn't effort, tactics, or leadership style, it's a fundamental misunderstanding of the function, the type of thinking required for the work, and the capabilities of the people doing it.He unpacks why environments get overwhelmed and inconsistent, why the usual fixes don't work, and why two failure modes (overwhelmed people in roles that are too big for them, and high-capability people stuck in roles that are too small) destroy momentum and culture.Brandon shares why leaders must define their function's true responsibility, break down the real cognitive demands of the work, and understand their people at a deeper level. This is the foundation that makes every other leadership practice actually work.Topics Covered• Why overwhelm and inconsistency are symptoms, not causes• The real responsibility of a function inside a business• How leaders collapse different kinds of thinking into “tasks”• Why some people drown and others suffocate• How to define, scope, and assign work correctly• Why capability alignment is the foundation of great culture• What leaders must understand to develop people effectivelyConnect with BrandonLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brandonbartneckMusic CreditIntro and outro music – Slow Burn – Kevin MacLeodSubscribe & FollowApple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.

The conversation culminates in a humorous yet profound ending that reflects on the nature of power dynamics and control. takeaways Gambling can create a false sense of increased chances of winning. Betting on obscure sports like table tennis can be entertaining. The thrill of gambling often overshadows the risks involved. Character names can influence betting decisions in a humorous way. The conversation shifts from gambling to anime seamlessly. Chainsaw Man explores deep themes of friendship and loyalty. The absurdity of betting on table tennis reflects a larger commentary on gambling culture. The stakes in both gambling and anime can lead to unexpected outcomes. Humor plays a significant role in discussing serious topics like addiction. The recap of Chainsaw Man highlights character development and plot progression. They abandoned their approved area, a big breach of contract. Aki's daily routine reveals character dynamics. Power's emotional attachment to her cat shows depth. Denji's motivations are often juvenile and self-serving. Makima's control over characters is chilling and powerful. The devils' power is based on the fear they instill. Power's betrayal highlights her self-serving nature. Denji's instincts are strong despite his lack of intellect. The political implications of devils are significant. The introduction of the Bat Devil adds complexity to the narrative. The action scenes in 'Chainsaw Man' are both creative and meaningful.

Most entrepreneurs think they have a marketing problem or a systems problem. In this conversation of the Embodied Marketing podcast, Emily Hirsh and I pull the curtain back on a deeper truth. Your business is not just a strategy. It is an X-ray of your identity, your emotional patterns, and the unhealed parts of your story that are still running the show. We go all the way in on what it really means to be an embodied CEO. Not the trending version that says everything should feel effortless, and not the hustle culture version that worships grind at the cost of your soul. The middle way. The one where you tell the truth about your pain, your patterns, and your power, then build your business from there. If you have ever felt like you did all the right things and still felt stuck, this episode will feel like someone finally turned the lights on in the room you have been sitting in for years.
Ben Goertzel joins the show to explore humanity's future in a world shaped by AGI — from the evolution of intelligence to the emergence of machine consciousness. They discuss the transition from narrow AI to general intelligence, the possibility of AGI becoming humanity's “next species,” the ethics of decentralized superintelligence, and how open-source AI might be the key to avoiding catastrophic centralization. Ben explains why AGI may reshape economics, governance, and biology, why consciousness is not limited to humans or biology, and how AI networks may begin cooperating, competing, and evolving in ways we cannot predict. They explore the future of personhood, identity, and whether humans will merge with AGI — or be surpassed by it. Ben Goertzel is the CEO of SingularityNET and one of the world's leading AGI researchers. // GUEST // X: https://twitter.com/bengoertzel Website: https://singularitynet.io/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SingularityNET // SPONSORS // Heart and Soil Supplements (use discount code BREEDLOVE): https://heartandsoil.co/ Blockware Solutions: https://mining.blockwaresolutions.com Onramp: https://onrampbitcoin.com/?grsf=breedlove Performance Lab Supplements: https://www.performancelab.com/breedlove The Farm at Okefenokee: https://okefarm.com/ Club Orange: https://www.cluborange.org/ Efani — Protect yourself from SIM swaps: https://www.efani.com/breedlove // PRODUCTS I ENDORSE // Protect your mobile phone from SIM swap attacks: https://www.efani.com/breedlove Lineage Provisions (use discount code BREEDLOVE): https://lineageprovisions.com/?ref=breedlove Colorado Craft Beef (use discount code BREEDLOVE): https://coloradocraftbeef.com/ Salt of the Earth Electrolytes: http://drinksote.com/breedlove Jawzrsize (code RobertBreedlove for 20% off): https://jawzrsize.com // UNLOCK THE WISDOM OF THE WORLD'S BEST NON-FICTION BOOKS // https://course.breedlove.io/ // SUBSCRIBE TO THE CLIPS CHANNEL // /@robertbreedloveclips2996 // TIMESTAMPS // 0:00 – WiM Episode Trailer 1:21 – The Nature of Intelligence & the Future of AGI 10:44 – What Makes a Mind? 19:02 – The Birth of Artificial General Intelligence 22:18 – Heart and Soil Supplements 23:21 – Mine Bitcoin with Blockware Solutions 24:29 – How AGI Learns, Evolves, and Understands 33:40 – Decentralized AGI vs Centralized Superintelligence 41:34 – Onramp Bitcoin Custody 42:34 – Mind Lab Pro Supplements 43:42 – Could AGI Become Humanity's “Next Species”? 56:17 – Consciousness Beyond Biology 1:07:22 – The Farm at Okefenokee 1:08:29 – Cooperation, Competition & Machine Agency 1:20:55 – Will AGI Merge With Humans? 1:33:01 – Club Orange 1:33:57 – How AGI Will Reshape Civilization 1:47:10 – Decentralized Networks & AI Personhood 1:51:39 – Efani: Protect Yourself From SIM Swaps 1:52:46 – Unlock the Wisdom of the Best Non-Fiction Books 1:53:14 – Final Thoughts & Where to Find Ben Goertzel // PODCAST // Podcast Website: https://whatismoneypodcast.com/ Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast… Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/25LPvm8… RSS Feed: https://feeds.simplecast.com/MLdpYXYI // SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL // Bitcoin: 3D1gfxKZKMtfWaD1bkwiR6JsDzu6e9bZQ7 Sats via Strike: https://strike.me/breedlove22 PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/RBreedlove Venmo: https://account.venmo.com/u/Robert-Br… // SOCIAL // Breedlove X: https://x.com/Breedlove22 WiM?

Have you ever hit a birthday and thought, “Whoa… I learned a lot this year”?In this special birthday episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I'm breaking down 36 life lessons from 36 trips around the sun, the real stuff, the hard-won wisdom, the wins, the mistakes, and the things that actually helped me put the Happy in my Hustle this past year.Every year, I do this little tradition where I reflect back on the life truths that hit the hardest across all 10 Happy Hustle alignments. It's not about being perfect. It's about staying aligned, being intentional, and actually enjoying this wild ride called life.And if you're an entrepreneur like me trying to grow your business without burning out, these lessons will resonate. Because honestly, most of them came from learning things the hard way. Fatherhood stretched me. Marriage humbled me. Health reminded me not to take shortcuts. Faith grounded me. Nature healed me. And business? Man… business taught me a ton about focus and what actually matters.A few of the biggest lessons I break down inside the episode:Giving to others is one of the fastest ways to fill yourself up—it's crazy how true that is.Your health will humble you real quick if you neglect it (ask me how I know).Your attention is your most valuable currency, and your phone will steal it if you let it.If you want a 10-level partner, you've gotta be a 10-level partner—hard truth, but a game changer.And joy? Joy comes when you prioritize fun, passion, and presence… not just productivity.I also share why faith expanded for me this year, why nature remains my best medicine, and why focusing on margin over revenue has brought more peace and abundance into my world than ever before. These 36 lessons aren't just motivational, they're practical and immediately actionable.My hope is simple: If just one of these lessons helps you harmonize your ambition and your well-being…If just one truth gives you clarity, relief, inspiration, or direction…Then this episode did its job.So if you're ready to reset, realign, and maybe laugh a little at my mistakes along the way, I'd be honored to have you join me for this birthday special.Connect with Cary!https://www.instagram.com/caryjack/https://www.facebook.com/SirCaryJackhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cary-jack-kendzior/https://twitter.com/thehappyhustlehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFDNsD59tLxv2JfEuSsNMOQ/featured Get a free copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful Balance https://www.thehappyhustle.com/bookSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online Coursehttps://thehappyhustle.com/thejourney/Apply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventurehttps://thehappyhustle.com/mastermind/“It's time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsors:If you're feeling stressed, not sleeping great, or your energy's been kinda meh lately—let me put you on to something that's been a total game-changer for me: Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers.

Wildfire smoke is fouling air quality across the US with increasing regularity, and it carries a heavy toll. A September 2025 study published in the journal Nature found that every year around 40,000 Americans are dying from wildfire smoke, with more on the way as the planet warms. Air filters, face masks and low-intensity prescribed burning can help protect the public from this growing threat. Also, around a third of the firefighters who battle wildfires in California are incarcerated, and until recently they were paid just $5 to $10 a day. Under a state law enacted in October 2025, incarcerated firefighters are now paid at least $7.25 per hour while actively fighting fires. And around the world, Indigenous people have been using fire on the landscape for thousands of years. One such practice comes from the Métis tradition in Western Canada. A Cree-Métis scientist shares with us how this low-intensity “good fire” helps rekindle cultural traditions and cultivate healthier ecosystems. --- Do you have a story of recovery or rethinking your relationship with wildfire you'd like to share?

As Israel's conquest of the land concludes in Joshua 11–12, God calls His people to remember His victories, obey His commands, and never forget the source of their blessings. Pastor Matthew used the closing of Joshua's battles to challenge believers to stay humble, thankful, and faithful — not just at Thanksgiving, but every day of life. Opening and Thanksgiving Reflection Pastor began with a prayer of gratitude, urging believers to reflect on the blessings of life and freedom. “May we not get complacent or presumptuous — all we have is today, and that day is a gift from God.” He reminded the congregation that none of us are promised tomorrow, and that gratitude should guard our hearts from pride and forgetfulness. Joshua's Obedience and God's Commands (Joshua 11:12–23) Joshua followed exactly what God commanded Moses, leaving “nothing undone of all the Lord had commanded.” Pastor emphasized that faithfulness means following God's Word, not reinventing it. “You don't get to become a Christian and play by your own rules — God doesn't need your ideas.” Many want to hear God's voice but won't read His Word; yet Scripture itself is the contract between Christ the Groom and His Bride, the Church. Application: God reveals Himself through His Word. If you want direction, open the Book before asking for new revelation. God's Sovereignty and Human Accountability Pastor addressed the difficult truth of divine judgment: God hardened the hearts of nations that continually rejected Him. He compared this to Pharaoh's hardened heart — a consequence of repeated rebellion. “The most fearful verse in the Bible is not in Revelation — it's where it says, ‘The Spirit of the Lord left Samson, and he knew it not.'” The warning: don't resist God so long that conviction disappears. The most terrifying state is when the Holy Spirit withdraws and a person no longer feels remorse. Lesson: “Conviction is a gift — if you can sin without feeling it, something's wrong.” The Nature of Sin and Boundaries of Love Pastor explained that God sets boundaries because He loves us, just as parents set boundaries for their children. From the Garden of Eden onward, sin began when man doubted God's goodness and believed He was holding out on them. “The devil convinced Eve that God was keeping her from something better — that's the same lie today.” Every sin still begins with mistrust of God's intentions. Remembering God's Victories (Joshua 12) God listed all 31 kings Israel defeated — not to glorify Joshua, but to remind the people of every battle God had already won. “When you're in a new fight, remember how many victories God has already given you.” Pastor urged believers to stop panicking in new trials: “You've already watched God feed you, heal you, and deliver you. Don't fall apart now — the same God is still fighting for you.” Forgetting past victories leads to unbelief, which Scripture calls evil, not immaturity. Deuteronomy 8 — The Call to Remember Pastor turned to Deuteronomy 8 to explain why God told Israel to remember: God humbled them in the wilderness to test their hearts, provide manna, and teach them dependence on His Word. “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the Lord.” Their clothes never wore out; their feet never swelled — a sign of constant divine provision. He connected this to modern blessings: “No nation has been as blessed as Israel — except America. But we're in danger of forgetting who made it that way.” The Danger of Forgetfulness and Prosperity When life gets comfortable — full houses, steady income, security — people forget God. He quoted Habakkuk, rebuking Israel for caring for their own houses while neglecting God's. “You'll live better on 90% honoring God than 100% stealing from Him.” Forgetting God leads to pride, and pride leads to destruction. Key Reminder: “When you're full, don't forget who filled your table.” God's Discipline and the Training of Faith Pastor compared spiritual growth to training in a weight room — hardships strengthen believers for future battles. “God's taking you into His gym to build your endurance. He's preparing you for the fourth quarter.” Trials are not punishments but preparation, teaching us dependence and perseverance. The Next Generation and God's Trustworthiness Parents cannot shield children from every hardship. “You can't fight all their battles — God's using those struggles to build them.” He warned against over-sheltering and fear-driven parenting: “Trust God's plan for your children. He's a better protector than you.” Like Jochebed with Moses, sometimes faith means letting go and trusting God's purpose. The Source of Blessing and True Prosperity God alone gives the power to get wealth — to establish His covenant, not to glorify ourselves. “If God doesn't open the door, you won't get anything done. It's His power that gives you ability.” Pastor cautioned against idolatry of money, possessions, or success — anything that displaces God's primacy. Final Exhortation — Do Not Forget the Lord Forgetfulness leads to destruction: “If you forget the Lord and follow other gods, you shall surely perish.” False gods are powerless — Buddha, Mohammed, Confucius remain in the grave, but Jesus is risen. “Until someone else rises from the dead, I'm sticking with the One who did.” The graves will one day burst open as the final testimony of Christ's power, proving again that He is who He says He is. Closing Challenge and Prayer Stop running your own life; it only leads to exhaustion and emptiness. Surrender daily and thank God for every battle already won. “When the next battle comes, don't tell God how big your problem is — tell your problem how big your God is.” The service ended with the Lord's Prayer, sealing the message in gratitude and worship. Core Message Remember what God has already done. Obey His Word — partial obedience is disobedience. Be thankful in every season. Don't forget the Lord who gives life, strength, and blessing. Trust God with your future, your children, and your battles — He never fails.
We kick off this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast with key takeaways from COP30, the annual UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties that ended last week in Belém, Brazil. You can listen to our previous episode about COP30 here. Today's episode features Emilio Tenuta, the Chief Sustainability Officer at Ecolab, a provider of water, hygiene and infection prevention solutions to businesses around the world. In the interview, Emilio explains the rising focus on water in conversations about climate and nature. "The climate crisis is really about a water crisis: The way we're going to experience climate is through extreme weather events and droughts, floods and a number of other activities that impact our businesses," Emilio says. "But it's also about water being an enabler to drive your business performance and impact." Emilio explains how AI can help companies understand future water risks. "Up to now, we've been looking in a rearview mirror on what water stress really means," he says. "Now we're trying to embed AI so we can look predictively." This interview is the latest installment in our CSO Insights podcast series, where we interview Chief Sustainability Officers around the world and across industries about how they're navigating the changing sustainability landscape.

Thinking about buying an engagement ring — or trying to decide between a natural diamond and a lab-grown diamond? This episode cuts through all the noise, hype, and half-truths in the diamond world. Part I of Andy's conversation with Ari from House of Diamonds (an eight-generation diamond expert with roots in Jaipur's royal gemstone trade) dives into the emotional, spiritual, and practical realities of buying a natural diamond — from the meaning behind natural stones to why warmer colors are making a comeback. If you're a guy trying to buy the right stone for the woman you love, this episode will calm the nerves and sharpen your instincts. What You'll Learn in This Episode: The story behind natural diamonds: Why Ari calls them "nature's greatest masterpiece," and why the story matters Natural vs. lab-grown — the truth: Is one "better"? Or are consumers being pushed in the wrong direction? Why J-color or K-color natural diamonds might be your best choice: How guys are saving thousands by choosing warmer stones with real character The spiritual side of diamonds: Yes, energy is real — and Ari has the stories to back it up How to choose a jeweler you can trust: Why independent jewelers beat mass-market retailers every time Key Quotes from Ari: "Natural diamonds are nature's greatest artwork — billions of years old. When a man is making a sacred bond with a woman, he should give her something rare, real, and born of the earth." "People have been preferring warmer color diamonds. They want G to J color because they want to show it's natural." "The jeweler you buy from matters more than the certificate. Trust the person who does this every day." "The world has become too financial and not personal enough. Jewelry is still personal — it's emotional. And that matters." Natural vs. Lab-Grown (The Real Difference): Natural diamonds: Billions of years old, finite supply Hold value over time due to rarity Carry emotional and symbolic weight Can be passed down with a real story Lab-grown diamonds: Created in weeks in a factory Unlimited supply, depreciating value Chemically identical, but no origin story Ari's take: "When a man is making a sacred bond with a woman, he should give her something rare, real, and born of the earth." The Warmer Diamond Secret: Warmer natural diamonds (J, K, L color) are becoming more desirable because they have character and look distinctly natural. They're significantly less expensive than colorless stones and look beautiful in yellow gold or vintage settings. Ari's insight: "People are calling me for three-carat-plus stones, but they don't want G color. They'll pay me more for J to K color." Why Independent Jewelers Matter: Ari's take: "I think all consumers should prioritize independent retailers. The owners are always in the store. They care about the store. That shows you the owner actually cares about it." The difference: Independent jewelers build lifelong relationships They have accountability — reputation is everything They personalize and customize jewelry Mass-market retailers only push profit, not education or trust Who Is Ari? Ari is part of an eight-generation gemstone and diamond family whose roots trace back to Jaipur's royal courts. Today, his company House of Diamonds specializes in natural diamonds, rare color stones, and ethical sourcing.

00:46 Martian ‘micro-lightning'The sounds of ‘micro-lightning' have been recorded by NASA's Perseverance rover, ending a long search for the phenomenon on Mars. A lack of suitable equipment has made it difficult to gather evidence of lightning on the red planet, but a team of researchers realized that a microphone on Perseverance should be able to pick up the characteristic sounds of electrical discharges. In total they found 55 such examples, along with signs of electrostatic interference indicative of the phenomenon. They dubbed the electric bursts ‘micro-lightning', as they are far smaller than the lighting seen on Earth, due to the thin Martian atmosphere. The team believe this finding could help better understand Martian chemistry and how best to design equipment to explore the planet's surface.Research Article: Chide et al.News and Views: Is there lightning on Mars?11:03 Research HighlightsHow the biology of male seahorses' brood pouches appears similar to mammalian pregnancy— plus, why Neanderthals' jaws were so beefy.Research Highlight: The origin of male seahorses' brood pouchResearch Highlight: Neanderthal DNA reveals how human faces form13:36 The key takeaways from COP30The UN's climate conference, COP30, came to a close last week in Brazil.

Women are known to be underrepresented in the medical sciences, but even accounting for this an AI-tool revealed that female authors featured on far fewer retracted research articles.

Their whole life, producer Hannah Chinn has known about the Big One: a massive earthquake forecasted to hit the West Coast. Scientists say it'll destroy buildings, collapse bridges, flood coastal towns and permanently shift the landscape. But how exactly do scientists know this much about the scope of earthquakes if they can't even predict when those earthquakes are going to happen? Together with host Emily Kwong, Hannah goes on a quest for answers. Plus, they get into what a Cascadia earthquake has in common with a Thanksgiving turkey.This story is part of Nature Quest, our monthly segment that brings you a question from a Short Waver who is noticing a change in the world around them.
