Summer was supposed to be about freedom and youth and no school and possibilities and adventure and exploration. Summer was a book of hope. That's why I loved and hated summers. Because they made me want to believe."   ―Benjamin Alire Sáenz, Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe     No episode on 9/15.

Lance Roberts & Michael Lebowitz break down Nvidia's latest earnings, its extraordinary growth outlook, Blackwell and Vera Rubin demand, the massive buildout in AI infrastructure, and Nvidia's growing financial involvement across the AI ecosystem.

IndyCar's debut in Markham Ontario was WILD to say the least. We had on-track activities delayed, drivers pushing (and finding) the limits and full on physicality. Conor Daly was in Ontario to take in the action, and he joins Producer Bobby this week for a new episode of Speed Street. The guys recap the drama from the weekend and debate the polarizing hairpin turn, which had racers and spectators at odds. They also look ahead to this coming weekend in Washington D.C. and make some podium picks. Race winner Marcus Ericsson joins the show to chat about his team's gamble to refuel late in the race. Marcus explains he realized he had speed in the car early on and felt like he could make his way back to the front on the last stint. He also weighs in on the hairpin turn debate, stating he can see it both ways from both driver and fan perspectives.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode of Inside the Children's Hospital Podcast, Katie Taylor sits down with Dr. Amy Baxter, pediatric emergency physician, researcher, inventor of Buzzy®, and founder of Pain Care Labs, to explore how childhood experiences with needles can shape a lifetime of healthcare interactions—and what parents and healthcare professionals can do to help. After watching her own son develop a fear of needles despite her expertise in pediatric pain management, Dr. Baxter began researching why children experience pain differently and how simple, evidence-based strategies can reduce pain during vaccines, blood draws, IV placements, port access, and other medical procedures. Her work ultimately led to the invention of Buzzy®, a device now used by families and healthcare professionals around the world. Katie and Dr. Baxter discuss the science behind pain, why multiple painful procedures can have a lasting impact on children, and how connection, preparation, and developmentally appropriate support can help children build confidence instead of fear. They also share practical strategies parents can use during medical procedures, the role of child life specialists, and why helping children feel safe matters just as much as reducing physical pain. Whether you're preparing your child for routine vaccines, navigating frequent hospital visits, supporting a child with a chronic medical condition, or caring for pediatric patients, this episode offers compassionate, research-informed insights that can help make medical experiences less overwhelming for children and families. In This Episode, We Discuss: Why children develop pain memories from medical procedures Reducing pain during vaccines, blood draws, IVs, and port access The research behind Buzzy® and vibration therapy Helping children feel safe during medical procedures Child life strategies that support coping and resilience The importance of caregiver connection during painful procedures Developmentally appropriate preparation and distraction techniques Practical ways parents can advocate for pain management Dr. Amy Baxter's journey from pediatric emergency physician to medical innovator The future of non-medication approaches to pediatric pain management   Episode Timestamps 00:00 Meet Dr. Amy Baxter 02:15 Why Buzzy was created 03:40 Understanding childhood needle pain 06:00 Why multiple shots matter 10:20 Child life and helping kids feel safe 12:15 The story behind Buzzy 20:20 Using Buzzy for vaccines, IVs, and ports 24:30 Distraction that actually works 28:20 Building safety and resilience during procedures 31:40 The future of pain management research 38:10 Where families can find Buzzy 41:00 Lessons from innovation and advocacy Resources Mentioned Pain Care Labs Buzzy® Buzzy Helps (Instagram) Dr. Amy Baxter (LinkedIn) TED Talk by Dr. Amy Baxter Pain Care Labs Resources & Downloads "What Works for Pain" Guide "What Works for Needle Fear" Guide   Connect with Us Instagram: @childlifeoncall + @insidethechildrenshospital Watch Today's Episode on YouTube Subscribe: Never miss an episode on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.

YouTube Description How can parents make shots, blood draws, IVs, and other medical procedures less painful for their children? In this episode of Inside the Children's Hospital Podcast, Katie Taylor, CCLS, sits down with Dr. Amy Baxter, MD—pediatric emergency physician, researcher, founder of Pain Care Labs, and inventor of Buzzy®—to discuss the science behind pediatric pain management and how small changes can make a big difference during medical procedures. After realizing she couldn't prevent her own son's fear of needles, Dr. Baxter dedicated her career to understanding why children experience pain the way they do and developing evidence-based solutions to help. Her work has transformed how families and healthcare professionals approach vaccines, blood draws, IV placements, port access, and other procedures that children with medical complexity often experience. Together, Katie and Dr. Baxter explore why children's early medical experiences matter, how child life principles help children build resilience, and practical ways parents can help their child feel safer and more supported during healthcare visits. They also discuss the research behind vibration and cold therapy, the importance of preparation and caregiver connection, and the future of non-medication pain management. Whether you're preparing for routine vaccines, navigating frequent lab work, supporting a child with a chronic medical condition, or you're a child life specialist or pediatric healthcare professional, this conversation is filled with compassionate, practical insights to help children experience less pain and more confidence. In This Episode Why childhood pain experiences matter The science behind Buzzy® and pediatric pain management Helping children through shots, blood draws, IVs, and port access Child life strategies that reduce stress during procedures Why connection with caregivers helps children cope Effective distraction techniques that actually work Practical ways parents can advocate for better pain management Dr. Amy Baxter's journey from pediatric ER physician to inventor The future of vibration therapy and pediatric pain research ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 Meet Dr. Amy Baxter 02:15 Why Buzzy was created 03:40 Understanding childhood needle pain 06:00 Why multiple shots matter 10:20 Child life and helping kids feel safe 12:15 The story behind Buzzy 20:20 Using Buzzy for vaccines, IVs, and ports 24:30 Distraction that actually works 28:20 Building safety and resilience 31:40 The future of pain management research 38:10 Where families can find Buzzy 41:00 Innovation, advocacy, and hope Resources Mentioned Pain Care Labs Buzzy® Buzzy Helps (Instagram) Dr. Amy Baxter on LinkedIn Dr. Amy Baxter's TED Talk Pain Care Labs "What Works for Pain" Guide Pain Care Labs "What Works for Needle Fear" Guide Dr. Amy Baxter, MD, is a pediatric emergency physician, inventor, researcher, and founder of Pain Care Labs.

Elissa's Creative Warehouse in Needham, MA where he bought blue yarn to cast on an elephant. Stitch House in Dorchester, MA where Roc found a bright mini skein he liked and I restocked my favorite knitting stitch markers.   Crafty Adventures Riley worked a bit on the cuff of a sock with her Area 51 Fibres Be FearLESS colorway yarn. Here's the Ravelry Project Page for mine. She also started a diamond painting project and crocheted several rounds on her hexagon blanket. She's using white worsted weight yarn held with minis from the advent yarn Nicole sent her. Marta and Roc both worked on his diamond painting project- a seaturtle. Marta got a crochet kit for a slice of pizza at Walmart and was able to finish 2 pieces with the yarn from the kit (with some heavy mods on the second one). Roc completed 2 hippo stuffies out of microfiber blanket yarn (free pattern from the Friendly Fox site). He finished a dinosaur he started during his last visit and the chicken he bought this year. Gabriella got a Craft-tastic learn to knit kit for her birthday (on sale at CVS right now). It came with a small circular loom. I taught myself how to do it and made a small axolotl. Came out cute! Has patterns for a bee and a panda too.   In My Travels We visited Tall Ships while they were in Boston Museum of Ice Cream (lots of fun, especially with kids. We spent about 90 minutes there) Bota Borg 24 quests- each is a series of escape rooms. You can do as many as you like with teams of 3 or more. You choose 2 or 4 hours. We loved it and would definitely go back. The Great Gatsby (musical) We enjoyed seeing our small towns from another perspective.   KAL News Splash Pad Party '26 Details Event runs 5/22-7/31 Splash Pad Party Registration is open as of 5/1 View Stats and/or Verify Registration here.

All three have teamed up for a special recording of the classic “Silver Threads and Golden Needles”. Originally recorded in 1956 by rockabilly pioneer Wanda Jackson and later championed by legends like Dolly Parton, Tammy Wynette, and Loretta Lynn, the song has long stood as an anthem of strength and independence—now reimagined by three women honoring that enduring tradition. Award-winning singer-songwriter Lee Newton's latest project, the acoustic album ‘Beautifully Undone,' is available now. Featuring a collection of songs from across her career, the project presents each track in a more intimate acoustic setting, bringing the lyrics and emotion to the forefront while offering a fresh perspective on the songs fans already love.  Georgette Jones was born to Country Music legends and Hall of Fame couple, George Jones and Tammy Wynette. Georgette has performed at the Opry, the Ryman and has toured across the US, Canada and overseas.  In addition to singing and songwriting, she is also an author. She co-wrote her biography, "The Three of Us", which was about her life growing up with her famous parents.  Georgette also acted in the TV series, "Sordid Lives" along side Leslie Jordan and Olivia Newton John as well as singing on the soundtrack.  Heidi Parton is the daughter of singer-songwriter and musician Randy Parton and the niece of Dolly Parton. Family connections have not only influenced Heidi's musical journey, they've presented opportunities. However, her individual talent, drive and determination have led to her growth as a performer. She began dancing in a Dollywood show at 13, became a featured vocalist at 15, and secured a spot as the headliner of her own show at Dollywood in 2024. #dollyparton #georgejones #tammywynette #lorettalynn #lorimorgan #pamtillis #ellalangley #taylorswift #countrymusic #countryradio #singersongwriter #dollywood

Anika sits down with Dr. Tommy Rhee, a former US Navy aviator, sports chiropractor, and founder of RheeGen. They discuss his journey from treating professional athletes and Olympians to developing a patent-pending, topical stem-cell cream. Dr. Rhee shares why he shifted away from injectables, the challenges of self-funding a biotech startup, and his bold transition toward plant-based regenerative medicine to make advanced healing affordable and accessible for everyone.In This EpisodeHow a Navy aviator background shapes startup discipline and problem-solvingThe pivot from traditional sports chiropractic care to pioneering topical regenerative medicineWhy elite athletes avoid downtime and how that inspired a non-invasive solutionThe science behind stem cell signals (extracellular vesicles) and transdermal deliveryTransitioning from human-tissue stem cells to plant-based alternatives for cost and accessibilityThe challenges of self-funding a biotech company and seeking proof of conceptWhy writing a book (The Future of Regenerative Medicine) became the ultimate patient education toolTimestamps00:00 Introduction: Meet Dr. Tommy Rhee and the mission of RheeGen 01:28 How Navy aviation training translates to biotech entrepreneurship 04:50 From sports fanatic to treating professional athletes and Olympians 09:04 The problem with athlete recovery, pain management, and forced downtime 10:10 A pivotal moment with a pro quarterback that inspired topical stem cell therapy 17:16 Balancing an active chiropractic practice while self-funding a biotech startup 18:33 The game-changer: Sourcing regenerative signals from plants instead of human tissue 24:40 Why Dr. Rhee wrote his book before launching his consumer product 28:04 Regulatory hurdles and the ethical supply chain issues in traditional stem cell clinics 31:46 The stress and reward of delivering a TEDx talk on healthcare breakthroughs 36:15 Democratizing sports medicine: Making elite healing accessible to the everyday person 41:19 Favorite quote: Bruce Lee's "Be like water"Key Insights & TakeawaysInsight 1: Focus on Micro-Victories Drawing from his Navy aviation background, Dr. Rhee emphasizes the importance of breaking massive goals down into actionable steps. R&D and business development don't happen overnight; they are the result of small, consistent wins that build momentum, test hypotheses, and create confidence.Insight 2: The Needle is the Problem Traditional regenerative medicine relies on injectables, which create secondary injury sites, pose infection risks, and require downtime that professional athletes can't afford. Topical delivery solves these pain points by offering non-invasive, transdermal healing that can be applied seamlessly during a competitive season.Insight 3: It's About the Signal, Not the Cell Live stem cells themselves aren't the magic bullet—it's the information (extracellular vesicles or EVs) they secrete. Once Dr. Rhee understood that healing relies on signaling existing tissue to regenerate, he realized those smaller molecules could be effectively delivered via a transdermal cream.Insight 4: Plant-Based is the Future of Accessible Healing Human-tissue stem cells are expensive, highly regulated, and limited in supply, which has led to shady practices in the industry. By identifying plants that emit the exact same regenerative signals as human tissues, RheeGen is pivoting to an Over-The-Counter (OTC) model that aims to bring the cost of elite therapy under $100.Insight 5: Educational Content as a Business Strategy Dr. Rhee didn't wait until his product was fully mainstream to establish thought leadership. Writing a book and doing a TEDx talk allowed him to educate the market, establish trust, and replace repetitive 40-minute patient consultations with a scalable, accessible educational resource.Resources & Links MentionedCompany: RheeGen (Topical Regenerative Medicine)Book: The Future of Regenerative Medicine by Dr. Tommy RheeVideo: Dr. Tommy Rhee's TEDx Talk (Science fiction inspiring healthcare)About Dr. Tommy RheeDr. Tommy Rhee is a former US Navy aviator, the former team chiropractor for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and the founder and CEO of RheeGen. After years of treating elite athletes, WWE wrestlers, and Olympians, he saw the limitations and exorbitant costs of traditional injectable regenerative medicine. This frustration inspired him to develop a patent-pending topical therapy. He is also a bestselling author and TEDx speaker passionate about democratizing sports medicine and making advanced healing accessible to the everyday weekend warrior.Connect with Dr. Tommy RheeWebsite: www.RheeGen.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drtommyrhee/Facebook: RheeGenSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Haystack Full of Needles: A memoir of research on mechanisms of memory in the decades that defined neuroscience by Louis Neal Irwin https://www.amazon.com/dp/1664140603 Lirwin.org How do we store information in the brain? Is memory a thing in a place, like a specific molecule in a particular cell? Or does learning require a process in a population, like neurons firing in a specific pattern for each experience? This combination of memoir and history tells the story of how the mechanisms of memory were gradually revealed, through biographical vignettes of the scientists who set out to solve the riddle of memory, including the author?s own efforts as he was coming of age as a scientist. It shows how individual goals intertwine with the technologies at hand to push scientific knowledge forward, often erratically, and always in the context of social forces and private ups and downs. Not only a compelling personal story with the war in Vietnam, civil rights movement, and downfall of two presidents as backdrop, this is a lucid explanation of brain function for the nonscientist and valuable contribution to the history of science in the decades that saw neuroscience join molecular biology as the marquee biomedical accomplishments of the twentieth century About the author Writer, neuroscientist, astrobiologist, educator, and political activist.

The Southern Sierra is the quieter, less-traveled tail end of California's Sierra Nevada range — running from Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks down through the Kern River drainage to where the range finally peters out into the Tehachapi Mountains. It's a land of dense pine forests, hidden granite formations, deep river canyons, and small mountain towns like Kernville, Springville, and Porterville tucked into its foothills.For climbers, this region is a genuine treasure trove that remains largely under the radar. The Needles are the crown jewel — a cluster of striking granite spires rising out of pine forest above the Kern River, home to some of the finest crack climbing in California. Dome Rock offers accessible multi-pitch classics. Deeper into the range you find places like The Fin at Castle Rock, Homer's Nose, Hermit Spire, and countless other obscure formations that have been quietly developed over decades by small groups of locals. The rock is high-quality granite, often steep, often demanding, and almost always uncrowded.Culturally, the Southern Sierra has always attracted a specific kind of climber — someone drawn to first ascents, comfortable with long approaches, willing to work for solitude, and less interested in the spray culture of more famous destinations. The area saw a renaissance in the late 1970s and early 1980s when climbers from Los Angeles started making pilgrimages up to Kernville and Porterville, discovering that the Needles and surrounding formations offered climbing that rivaled anything in Yosemite — just without the crowds. Patrick Paul found himself right in the middle of this renaissance and became a pioneer in his own right, establishing 54 first ascents across the Southern Sierra over his 50 year career.In this conversation we go back to Patrick's tumultuous upbringing and how a single trip to Joshua Tree became the catalyst for an entire life pivot — one he's convinced saved his life. We dig into stories from his years on the rock, including run-ins with icons like Randy Leavitt, Lynn Hill, and Fred Beckey, and several close calls: an earthquake mid-approach, expanding flakes on Homer's Nose, and a moment when his main partner Richard Leversee saved Patrick from certain death when Patrick leaned back away from an anchor without being tied in.#livinglegend #firstascentsHelp Support The Show & Unlock The Ad-Free PodcastResourcesSome of Patrick's stories can be found in this book:Patrick's Facebook

Because her body cannot make cortisol, she takes cortisol replacement daily and may need an emergency hydrocortisone injection during a crisis.The problem?The current emergency injection can take upto 14 steps to prepare, mix, and administer.Julia explains why the liquid and powder need to stay separate for stability, why the current process is so difficult during an emergency, and how Solution Medical is developing a proprietary dual-chamber primary container to simplify reconstitution while maintaining shelf life without refrigeration.We also discuss how the company evolved from a device idea into a drug-led 505(b)(2) NDA program, the development of a four-step prefilled syringe and two-step auto-injector, human factors testing with both patients and injection-naive users, manufacturing challenges in aseptic processing, supplier trust, regulatory strategy, and the broader platform potential for other mix-before-inject drugs.Chapters00:00 Meet Julia Anthony01:04 Living Without Cortisol02:03 The 14-Step Injection05:01 Building a Combination Product07:54 From Device Concept to Pharma Company10:06 Needles, Steps, and Testing13:25 Patient Insights and Human Factors16:58 Real-World Access Challenges21:50 Why Not a Liquid Formulation?24:15 Regulatory Pathway: 505(b)(2)25:13 Manufacturing and Partner Trust27:32 Rare Disease and Supplier Power31:53 Platform Vision Beyond Adrenal Insufficiency38:05 Reconstitution Is the Hard Part41:12 COVID Tailwinds and Timeline43:38 Where to Find Solution Medical44:42 Final Thoughts on CortisolAbout SubhiSubhi Saadeh is a consultant, trainer, and auditor focused on quality, regulatory, manufacturing, and supplier challenges for drugs, devices, and combination products.Through Let's Combinate, Subhi helps companies navigate the messy intersection of pharmaceutical and medical device requirements through consulting, training, audits, and practical education.He also hosts Let's Combinate: Drugs + Devices, where he speaks with leaders building, regulating, manufacturing, and improving combination products.

Against the backdrop of the current wildfire season, which has ravaged vast areas across states like Utah and Colorado, Chris draws attention to a major human activity causing these fires, particularly the use of fireworks. The discussion is timely, as it coincides with the Fourth of July celebrations, a period notorious for firework-related fire ignitions. Listeners are taken on a journey through a detailed analysis of wildfire statistics and historical data, stressing the pervasive problem of fireworks as a leading cause of fires each year. Chris also shares insights from a significant study published in PLOS One, highlighting July 4th as a peak day for wildland fire ignitions. His narrative is woven with examples of past fire tragedies and current ongoing fires, painting a vivid picture of the dangers facing the desert ecosystems. Ultimately, Chris advocates for alternative ways to celebrate holidays without compromising the natural world, emphasizing stewardship and self-reliance cultivated by the unique desert environment. Key Takeaways: Fireworks are a major contributor to wildland fires, especially on the Fourth of July, causing around 300 wildfires annually in the U.S. The introduction of invasive grasses in desert regions has increased the frequency and spread of wildfires, which were previously rare in these habitats. With current federal firefighting resources strained due to staffing reductions and agency reorganizations, the Southwest faces heightened wildfire vulnerability. Alternative celebrations, such as using organized drone shows in place of fireworks, offer a safer option that aligns with environmental protection goals. Desert communities must balance the spirit of independence with responsible stewardship to preserve and protect their unique ecosystems. Notable Quotes: "We remember the spectacular fires. We forget the thousands of ignitions that didn't become disasters." "The desert has already given us an incredible fireworks show. Thunderstorms over distant mountains, meteor showers, the Milky Way visible in the background of silhouetted Joshua trees."

Art teacher Tim Needles brings AI art into the classroom without losing the watercolors, clay, and joy of real art. In this Tech Tool Tuesday, Tim shares how he uses Adobe Express and text-to-image to amplify student imagination, why the kids who use AI well are simply more descriptive, and the daily 10-minute creativity habit that helps teachers fight burnout. Plus: the legacy mural project that reaches a whole community, and the student who broke INTO the art room to keep working — and now works at Industrial Light & Magic. In this episode, you'll learn: How to bring AI art into any subject with Adobe Express (works on a Chromebook) Why specificity makes the difference between weak and strong AI art prompts How to keep students respecting traditional media in the age of AI A simple daily creativity habit that protects against teacher burnout Why "fun is underrated" — and how passion projects change kids' lives Full show notes and resources: https://www.coolcatteacher.com/e941 If this show encouraged you, leave a review wherever you're listening and share it with a teacher friend.

They bled, and they bruised, and their superpowers were as simple as listening, or loving. Heroes were ordinary people who knew that even if their own lives were impossibly knotted, they could untangle someone else's. And maybe that one act could lead someone to rescue you right back."   ― Jodi Picoult, Second Glance   ------   Thank you for tuning in!   Contact Information: Check out the Down Cellar Studio Patreon!

If you want to understand what is really inside your peptides and why it matters for your longevity and human performance, he is the person to listen to. Dave and Justin go deep on why most peptides on the gray market contain dangerous residual compounds that can spike liver enzymes and cause real harm, why Chinese-sourced APIs are not always what they claim to be, and how a new generation of needle-free delivery systems including microneedle patches and auto-injectors is making peptide therapy accessible to anyone serious about longevity and human performance. They also cover how AI and functional medicine are converging to make peptide protocols personalized based on genetics and microbiome status, why the thymus gland is one of the most overlooked anti-aging targets in the body, and what the suppression of peptide research reveals about who really controls your access to health tools. You Will Learn: Why many gray market peptides contain toxic residual acids that damage the liver and how to identify clean products How microneedle patches and auto-injectors are replacing traditional injections for peptide delivery Which peptides are most effective for longevity, immune system repair, and human performance including BPC-157, Thymosin Alpha-1, and growth hormone secretagogues Why your genetics and gut microbiome determine whether a peptide will work for you at all How the thymus gland controls your immune system and why it disappears by your mid-20s What the suppression of peptide research tells you about Big Pharma's control over your supplement and nootropics access Why US-manufactured peptides represent a new standard for safety and quality in biohacking How AI is transforming personalized peptide protocols in functional medicine Which peptides are overhyped and which ones actually move the needle on anti-aging and recovery How to store, mix, and dose peptides correctly to avoid the mistakes most people using them are making right now Thank you to our sponsors! - Danger Coffee | Grab yours at DangerCoffee.comand use code DAVEPOD at checkout for 15% off. - The One Device | Use code DAVE for $10 off at theonedevice.com/dave - Fatty15 is on a mission to support Healthy Aging for All, including all ages and stages of life.

His role is to make you realize the doom and glory of knowing who you are and what you are. He has to tell, because nobody else in the world can tell, what it is like to be alive.   -James Baldwin ------   Thank you for tuning in!   Contact Information: Check out the Down Cellar Studio Patreon!
