The first Formline of the season proper has actual form to discuss - a sliver, at least. Sam, Riley and David dig into the tactical shift behind the Blades' start: far less possession, far fewer chances, a much tighter defensive shape and some eye-catching numbers at both ends of the pitch.Is Wilder building the foundations of a play-off push, or has the correction gone too far? Where are the goals supposed to come from? And how long will supporters tolerate percentage football if the wins don't follow?Plus: Swansea, Cardiff, the curious case of the central midfield, deadline-day risks, Adam Webster, Ben Brereton Díaz, Tom Cannon and the Premier League loans that could still shape the season Get full access to The Pinch at www.thepinch.uk/subscribe

On today’s episode, Jason discusses whether the Cincinnati Bengals should consider trading a clearly frustrated Joe Burrow, how much a franchise quarterback of Burrow's caliber would be worth on the open market, and whether the growing trend of current NFL players going back to play college football through some legal loophole is a good or a bad thing. #FSR Follow Jason on Twitter and Instagram.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. US bureau chief Jacob Magid joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. US President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and top aide Jared Kushner met with Hamas chief Khalil al-Hayya in the Egyptian coastal city of El-Alamein on Sunday before meeting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem yesterday. We discuss the normalization of the US conducting direct talks with Hamas and a potential new way forward being floated by the Board of Peace. As the 60-day memorandum of understanding between the US and Iran has run out, in a wide-ranging phone interview with Fox News, US President Donald Trump said he had “no time schedule” for the conflict. Magid also delves into the visible mixed messaging between the president and Vice President J.D. Vance over the war's goals. And finally, we turn to the ongoing saga taking place at the Palestinian village of Qusra, near Nablus. International media attention has been spotlighting the location for over a week after settlers began surrounding several new houses built on its outskirts, trapping residents inside in an apparent effort to force them out. The IDF’s actions — and inactions — have generated condemnation around the world. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

94 Major Wildfires Are Burning Across the West—Is This the New Normal? The Western United States is facing a dangerous wildfire crisis. Crews are fighting to protect Big Sur, three fires are burning near Reno with single-digit containment, and 94 large wildfires remain uncontained across the West as of August 11, 2026. From the Northwest and Northern Rockies to California, Nevada and the Southwest, extreme heat, dry conditions and expanding fire activity threaten communities, public health and the environment. Wildfire smoke can travel hundreds of miles, while the economic and human costs continue to mount. What can America do to prevent these disasters? Can better land management, climate action and community preparation make a meaningful difference—or must we adapt to wildfires as the West's new normal? Then, after 24 years on the air, a Bay Area radio host has been laid off. His scathing Facebook post captures the troubling state of today's broadcasting industry.

The Wall Street Journal reports that major Gulf energy exporters, including countries such as Saudi Arabia and the UAE, are increasingly concluding that Iran may retain effective control over the Strait of Hormuz for the foreseeable future. While they dislike this outcome, many see it as preferable to a return to full-scale war. Axios reports that, for only the third time in U.S. history, women now hold more jobs than men in the American workforce. As of February 2026, there were about 200,000 more women employed than men, according to federal labor data highlighted by Indeed's Hiring Lab. Fortune reports that women now hold more jobs than men in the U.S. workforce for only the third time in history, but argues that the bigger story is not women entering the workforce. Instead, it's that men are increasingly leaving or not entering the labor force. Psychology Today explores a growing phenomenon sometimes called“Ozempic divorce”: reports that some marriages and long-term relationships experience strain or even break down after one partner achieves significant weight loss using GLP-1 medications such as Ozempic or Zepbound.

Dan Wiederer and Mark Grote hear Bears receiver Rome Odunze explain what he meant earlier in the offseason when he said he has a "new normal" after last year's foot injury.

Europe is burning. Wildfires are still alight in the hills outside Bordeaux and the countryside west of Madrid. More than 300,000 people across France and Spain have been forced from their homes, and both countries remain on high alert as they enter the fourth heatwave of the summer. As we publish this episode, new fires are breaking out across Greece and Turkey.With the continent warming at more than twice the global average, a new frontline of the climate crisis has emerged. Meanwhile, nearly three in four UK newspaper articles about June's record heatwave made no mention of climate change, and into that gap come competing narratives: arson conspiracies, weather manipulation, "it was hotter in 1976". Are we being gaslit?Tom is joined by Friederike Otto, co-founder of World Weather Attribution, to unpack what so much coverage is missing. Are these extreme events being caused by climate change? How do we know? And how can we tell a better story?He then speaks with Emma Howard Boyd, former chair of the UK Environment Agency, now chair of the UK's new National Heat Risk Commission. She has spent her career translating slow-moving climate risk for institutions built to move fast - in government, in finance, and now at a commission created for precisely this moment. Emma's doesn't claim to have the answers, but she does have ideas. She calls for a shift from emergency response to strategic planning, and for local, mayor-led heat plans like Heat Ready London to ensure schools, hospitals and railways are built for the temperatures now arriving.Every decision we take now either builds in resilience or locks in vulnerability. Which are we choosing? How are we going to bring more people with us? And can institutions built for fast disasters learn to see a slow one?Learn More:

In this episode, Julie talks to Savannah about how every person deserves to be 100% authentic in who they are and how to navigate a relationship where that authenticity is challenged by a partner. Whether the cis-partner is coming to terms with understanding the identity and presentation of their gender-expansive mate or setting up ground rules to limit them so a level of comfortability is achieved for the short-term, the ratification of a proper and fair compromise between partners is not always achievable. When is a compromise beneficial for the partnership and when is it simply one partner forced to give up their agency and autonomy for the comfort of the other?-----SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.

What makes eccentric training one of the most effective yet overlooked ways to build strength?Amy Hudson and Dr. James Fisher explain the science behind eccentric muscle actions and why your body can produce more force while using less energy during the lowering phase of a movement. They explore the latest research on how eccentric training can improve strength, cardiovascular health, and everyday function without leaving you exhausted or sore. Tune in to discover why this approach to strength training may help you get better results with less effort.Show Notes Dr. Fisher explains what eccentric training actually is and why it matters in everyday life. Learn how lowering yourself into a chair, walking downhill, or resisting a weight are all examples of eccentric muscle actions that become increasingly important as we age.Discover why eccentric training is often described as one of the most efficient forms of exercise. Dr. Fisher explains how the body can produce 20 to 40% more force while lowering a weight than while lifting it.Amy and Dr. Fisher discuss the surprising mismatch between effort and results during eccentric training. They cover why workouts that feel easier in the moment can still create a powerful stimulus for strength and fitness improvements.Dr. Fisher explains why soreness is not a reliable sign of an effective workout. He discusses new research showing that many of the benefits of eccentric training occur even when people experience little or no post-workout muscle soreness.Why personal training doesn't have to leave you exhausted to be effective. Amy and Dr. Fisher explain how emphasizing the eccentric portion of an exercise can increase muscular stimulus while reducing the feeling of effort during the workout.Dr. Fisher discusses a fascinating study involving older women who either walked upstairs or downstairs for 12 weeks. The group that spent their exercise time walking downstairs reported less effort yet achieved greater improvements in strength, blood pressure, cholesterol, and insulin sensitivity.Amy explains why eccentric training may be especially appealing for people who feel intimidated by traditional gym workouts. She covers how lower perceived exertion can make exercise feel more approachable while still delivering meaningful results.Why personal training for older adults may benefit from focusing on the lowering phase of movements. Dr. Fisher explains how controlled eccentric actions help with real-world tasks such as sitting down safely, walking downhill, and maintaining balance.Dr. Fisher explains why the body remains relatively strong during the lowering phase even as fatigue builds up. Learn how eccentric strength declines much more slowly than concentric strength, allowing muscles to keep working effectively later in a set.Amy and Dr. Fisher discuss why many people have been taught to equate hard exercise with pain, breathlessness, and exhaustion. They explain why research increasingly suggests that productive training does not require feeling “wrecked” after a workout.Dr. Fisher explains why eccentric exercise may become the “new normal” in evidence-based strength training. Combining lower physiological stress with greater physiological adaptation challenges many common assumptions about what an effective workout should feel like.Amy and Dr. Fisher discuss how bioadaptive resistance technology can enhance eccentric loading during personal training sessions. Learn how matching resistance to a person's different lifting and lowering abilities may create a more individualized strength-training experience.Dr. Fisher explains why efficient exercise is not just about saving time. Eccentric-focused strength training may deliver greater improvements in strength and health while placing less overall stress on the body.Extra Elements:Exercisecoach.comSubmit your questions here: Strengthchangeseverything.com Strength Changes Everything on Apple PodcastsStrength Changes Everything YouTube ChannelMentioned in This Episode: The Exercise Coach - Get 2 Free Sessions!Submit your questions at StrengthChangesEverything.comThis podcast and blog are provided to you for entertainment and informational purposes only.

In this episode, Savannah asks Julie the question, "Why do women get to wear pants and men don't get to wear skirts?" In Western Culture, the idea of men wearing feminine clothes is considered outlandish and fetishistic, while women wearing pants or more masculine articles of clothing is normalized and not seen as out of place. From the necessary changing fashion styles as humans found themselves in the Industrial Revolution to women fighting for their own rights for fashion equality, the modern era is still wrought with inconsistencies and inequalities.-----SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.

This week's episode has a little bit of everything I love. First, I share why I'm heading back to EAA AirVenture Oshkosh, a place that's become much more than the world's largest aviation gathering for me. It's where I spent countless summers with my dad, and every time I go back I find myself reconnecting with those memories while getting excited about the future of aviation. This year I'm especially looking forward to seeing TurboTech's regenerative turbine engine, a technology that could completely change general aviation by delivering turbine reliability with piston-engine fuel economy. If you're an engineering geek like me, you're going to enjoy this discussion. Next, I have another Dallas Kibbe Racing Update, including race broadcast audio from Charlotte Motor Speedway. Dallas continues battling through one of the toughest Late Model fields in the country, and while the wins haven't come yet, the progress absolutely has. We talk about why racing is about much more than trophies, the importance of learning race craft, and why I believe he's building the foundation that will eventually put him in Victory Lane. Then it's time for one of the most candid interviews I've ever had on this show. Chris "Smitty" Smith from Smitty's Custom Automotive joins me to talk about what it really takes to build a modern Pro Touring car that can compete at the highest level. Chris doesn't hold anything back. We discuss suspension systems, ABS braking, chassis design, budgets, what parts are worth the money, what parts aren't, and the lessons he's learned after nearly three decades of building and racing some of the fastest street cars in the country. If you've ever wondered what separates a good Pro Touring build from a championship contender, this is an interview you won't want to miss. The post TMCP #654: Chris Smith of Smitty's – UNFILTERED Pro-Touring Cheat Code: Which Suspension and Parts to Use to Win, Why You Need ABS, and $300K 2nd Gen Camaros Are the New Normal first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

A young man in his 20s experiences a head-on collision with a tree that leaves him in profound shock, and not exhibiting the symptoms that would seem to match his vital signs. Our team recognizes the mismatch and works quickly to get him to the hospital. Upon arriving at the hospital, the team does what our host refers to as "the ultimate hospital intervention" and performs an open resuscitative thoracotomy. After multiple surgeries and three days, the patient ultimately does not survive. But after the staggering volume of blood products and interventions performed, they wonder if he's still eligible for organ and tissue donation. In the last part of this episode, we answer that question with  an expert on the issue. The insights are fascinating.    Interested in obtaining CE credit for this episode?

Ireland is experiencing its third round of unusually hot temperatures in just six weeks. Is this summer heat going to become the new normal, and is Ireland prepared for that? Anton discusses this further with Darren Clarke, Assistant Professor in Climate in DCU.

Nearly a month after a ceasefire, the US-Iran deal seems to have all but collapsed as both nations have slipped back into active conflict. On Sunday, Tehran announced that the Strait of Hormuz is once again closed—a move President Trump immediately countered, stating the waterway will remain open "with or without Iran." Since then, both the US and Iran have reportedly begun new attacks, and the President said the US will reinstate its blockade to become the "guardian" of the strait, even floating a controversial plan to charge commercial ships to ensure their safe passage.  We are in a critical window where both sides are aggressively trying to redefine their leverage in the Persian Gulf region, yet neither has fully abandoned the negotiating table. The U.S. can't maintain its high-stakes engagement indefinitely.  So are we right back to square one? Is this perpetual state of uncertainty the new normal for the Strait of Hormuz? What realistic leverage does Washington still possess on the nuclear front? And with senior Houthi leaders announcing their involvement, how does the collapse of this deal reverberate throughout the Persian Gulf region?  Today on the show, Jason Bordoff discusses the current and unpredictable state of affairs in the strait, and how it could play out in the coming weeks and months, with Suzanne Maloney, the vice president and director of the foreign policy program at the Brookings Institution. Suzanne's research focuses on Iran and Persian Gulf energy. She has advised Democratic and Republican administrations on Iran policy, including as an external advisor to senior State Department officials during the Obama administration and as a member of Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice's Policy Planning staff during the administration of George W. Bush. Earlier in her career, she served as Middle East advisor for ExxonMobil Corporation. Credits: Hosted by Jason Bordoff and Bill Loveless.

Is 41.9 degrees Celsius the new normal for Czech summers? Record temperatures in Czechia prompt calls for summer protection of homeless, Prague Zoo welcomes great-grandson of sea lion Gaston, Prague exhibition revisits the legacy of Vojta Náprstek

The dominant structural shift addressed is the increasing operational dependency on Microsoft Intune for endpoint management across organizations of all sizes, which is exposing gaps between Microsoft's native capabilities and the practical needs of managed environments. This shift is creating new pressure points for service margins, as IT service providers find themselves compensating for visibility limitations and inconsistencies in Intune's deployment mechanisms. Vendors such as Recast Software have positioned themselves as companions that address these shortfalls, acknowledging that Microsoft routinely incorporates previously “companion” features into its own ecosystem. The primary evidence cited is the identified lack of comprehensive fleet visibility and inconsistent application deployment within Microsoft Intune environments. According to Recast Software's Chief Product Officer, Jake Mosey, customer feedback repeatedly points to insufficient information about device states—especially during hybrid or co-managed transitions from Microsoft Configuration Manager to Intune—and challenges with application deployment timing, patching, and third-party app management. These operational gaps create environments in which service providers must employ supplemental tools to maintain efficiency and consistency across client environments. Supporting developments include lessons learned from similar dynamics in the Apple-Jamf ecosystem, where continual vendor evolution (“Sherlocking”) forced channel vendors to focus on speed, specialization, and building direct community relationships. Jake Mosey emphasized that effective community-driven product development relies on discerning the needs of the wider user base, not just the loudest voices, and maintaining a focused strategy. The discussion also highlighted persistent fragmentation in multi-platform environments, meaning MSPs must often manage diverse device fleets with varying visibility and control requirements—a complexity heightened during prolonged hybrid migration states. Operationally, MSPs and IT leaders face practical implications including increased vendor dependency, the need for multifaceted visibility tools, and a requirement to plan for ongoing hybrid environments rather than clean migration end-states. Service providers are urged to prioritize automation where possible but must also recognize that full migration to a single endpoint platform remains impractical for many. Failure to address these gaps increases risk to client productivity and end-user satisfaction, particularly when patching, application deployment, or security controls are inconsistently applied. The expectation is that meaningful improvements will depend more on inventory and visibility capabilities than solely on automation or AI.

What do you want your new normal to be?It's a simple question, but for many people experiencing success with GLP-1 medications, it may be one of the most important questions they'll ever ask themselves.In this episode of Life During and After GLP-1, we explore what happens when the mental tug-of-war around food, weight loss, and dieting begins to quiet down. For many people, years have been spent managing cravings, battling food thoughts, and focusing on weight loss goals. When that noise becomes quieter, it creates space for something new.The question becomes: what do you want to do with that space?We discuss identity, personal growth, self-trust, and the opportunity to intentionally create a new normal. We also explore why lasting change isn't really about the medication itself, but about the choices you make once you have the clarity and space to build the life you truly want.Topics Covered:• What your new normal could look like• Life during and after GLP-1• Creating a new identity beyond weight loss• The opportunity that comes with mental clarity• Food noise and the mental tug-of-war• Why self-trust matters• Building a lifestyle around your preferences• Redefining what is normal for you• Personal growth and life transitions• Taking ownership of your future• Creating change one step at a time• Building a forever active lifestyleContinue The ConversationIf you'd like to continue the conversation around life during and after GLP-1, join the live streams at:yourlevelfitness.com/streamThe live streams provide an opportunity to explore topics like GLP-1 medications, weight loss, food noise, body image, identity, and building a lifestyle that supports your long-term success.Thank you for listening to Life During and After GLP-1.The medication may help quiet the noise, but you are still the one writing the next chapter. The question isn't whether you can create a new normal. The question is what you want that new normal to be.

What do you want your new normal to be?If you're currently taking a GLP-1 medication, you've probably heard people talk about reduced appetite, fewer thoughts about food, lower energy levels, nausea, and significant weight loss. For many people who have struggled with weight management for years, those changes can feel like a welcome relief.In this episode of Life During and After GLP-1, I explore an important question that often gets overlooked: what do you ultimately want your day-to-day life to look like?We discuss the trade-offs that can come with GLP-1 medications, the importance of thinking beyond short-term weight loss, and why it's worth considering how your energy, strength, activity levels, and overall quality of life fit into the bigger picture.This isn't about telling you whether GLP-1 medications are right or wrong. Those conversations belong between you and your healthcare provider. Instead, this episode is about helping you think critically about the lifestyle you're building and whether it aligns with the life you want to live long-term.Topics Covered:• Defining your new normal• Life during and after GLP-1 medications• Appetite changes and food noise• Energy levels and daily activity• Strength, muscle mass, and performance• Long-term lifestyle considerations• Weight loss versus quality of life• Marketing messages around GLP-1 medications• Building a sustainable active lifestyle• Appreciating yourself at every stage of the journeyLinks Mentioned:Your Level Fitness:https://yourlevelfitness.comJournal Prompts:https://yourlevelfitness.com/emailEmail Daryl:daryl@yourlevelfitness.comThank you for listening to Life During and After GLP-1.My goal isn't to tell you what your journey should look like.
