Successful funding to assure housing for low income veterans in Gainesville and Ocala. FL 3rd Dist. US House Rep. Kat Cammack on the need for continued disruption in politics, overturning burdensome, unnecessary regulations, powering oil refining to lower prices, and a local town hall tonight at Emmerson Alumni Hall on UF with GOP gubernatorial candidate Byron Donalds.

What if we're so focused on what's happening around us that we've forgotten what's coming ahead of us?Jesus warned His followers that His return would happen when people least expected it. In Matthew 24, He compares the days before His return to the days of Noah—people were eating, drinking, working, building, getting married, and simply living life… until suddenly everything changed.The problem isn't that we have everyday lives. The problem is when everyday life becomes all we live for.When eternity is ignored, sin can become normalized. But God's warnings aren't meant to push us away—they're meant to rescue us. God doesn't warn us because He wants to destroy us. He warns us because He wants us to turn from our sin, live for Him, and be reconciled to Him.Through the stories of Noah and Lot, Jesus' teaching in Matthew 24, and the hope of the gospel, we're reminded of two important responses:1. Take action.Bring eternal purpose into everyday life. Readiness isn't something you prepare for someday—it's something you practice today.2. Invite ONE.If we believe Jesus is coming back, we shouldn't just look up—we should start reaching out. We are Christ's ambassadors, carrying His message of hope and reconciliation to the people around us.Jesus came once to rescue us, and Scripture tells us He will come again.So the question isn't simply, “When is Jesus coming back?”The better question is: “How should I live today because He is?”

Send us Fan MailGet Carol's book, Jesus Jesus Jesus: The Life Journey of a Jewish Girl Who Came To Know Jesus The Messiah by Reach her at her website by clicking here.=============A listener note before you press play. This conversation includes the loss of children, domestic violence, and a mental health crisis.Some stories are not for scrolling past. This one belongs to Carol.She grew up Jewish in Brighton Beach, Brooklyn, and says she thought the whole world was Jewish. She barely got out of high school. What she loved was walking that boardwalk all the way to Coney Island for Nathan's hot dogs.She married at nineteen. By twenty four she had three sons, and two of them had died. Her mother died at forty four.She told her husband she was leaving. She could not stay in a place where people asked who was watching the baby.What followed was years of hard road. Ocala. A wedding on a ranch set for the seventh of July at seven o'clock that she called off when the man started beating her. Beauty school, because she says a woman needs to be able to take care of herself. Fort Lauderdale, then Miami, where she went looking for the most expensive haircut in town and talked her way into the salon behind it.She is honest that she was stoned most of that time.Then Christmas 1978. A client handed her a Bible and told her to read the book of John.She was going to throw it away.She sat down instead. When she read that Jesus and His disciples were Jewish like her, something opened. She loved Passover. She had grandparents from Europe. This was not foreign. Then she read that He is the way, the truth, and the life, and no one comes to the Father except through Him.Almost forty years later she is still telling that story.There is a chapter in her book called My Nervous Breakdown. She had been a Christian for years, studying the Word, when she and her husband were out walking on Shelter Island in San Diego and he turned around to find her curled up in the grass. She says the hard season handed her a master's degree in human life without ever going to school for it.Out of that came Changing Point, then a one day seminar, then a six week journey toward healing, then a nonprofit ministry that traveled for years. Three years ago she says God told her to get the workbook out of the closet and do it again, under a new name. A Deep Change. She does not charge for it.She also runs Second Saturday Sisters, which started in her clubhouse ten years ago because she has a sound sensitivity that kept her out of church. When COVID scattered everyone, a friend suggested Zoom. It has been meeting there ever since.Her book is Jesus, Jesus, Jesus: The Life Journey of a Jewish Girl Who Came to Know Jesus the Messiah. Her second book is in progress, and she announces the title in this episode for the first time anywhere. Back to Brooklyn, Born Again.She has a line she offers in Spanish, and it is the only Spanish she knows. Siempre hay esperanza en Jesús. There is always hope.Find Carol on Facebook, on Instagram at lovejoyhope3, and at frommyheart-2yours.org.This is The Calling Table Sessions on the Stuck No More Voices Podcast. One seat. One woman.

What if Jesus came back tomorrow?Not someday. Not eventually. Tomorrow.Would you be ready?Jesus promised that He would return—but Scripture never tells us to spend our lives trying to figure out exactly when. It tells us to live ready.In this message, we look at what the Bible says about the return of Jesus, why God may seem to be taking so long, and what His promise should change about the way we live today.The truth is, the biggest distraction from eternity may not be bad things. It may be good things that keep us so busy planning what's next that we forget Who's coming next.Jesus is coming again. The question isn't whether He's coming. The question is: Will you be ready?Being aware means believing Jesus is coming again. Being ready means that belief changes how you live today.We'll explore what Scripture says about the Second Coming, God's promises, biblical prophecy, eternity, spiritual readiness, faith, purpose, and following Jesus in everyday life.Don't spend your life trying to figure out WHEN Jesus is coming. Spend your life becoming WHO Jesus wants you to be when He comes.

Elisabeth Brinton, from Ocala, Florida, USAHear more about Elisabeth's experience on this week's episode of Sentinel Watch.

In this episode of little teeth BIG Smiles, Dr. Joel Berg sits down with Dr. Ann Bynum to explore what it takes to build a strong, thriving pediatric dental practice. From the power of language and creating a true team culture to transparency, mentorship, shared decision-making and fostering a growth mindset, Dr. Bynum shares practical insights from her years of experience as a practice owner, mentor and leader. The conversation offers valuable advice for pediatric dentists at every stage of their careers, discussing how to bring new doctors and team members into the culture, create clear expectations and build systems that support long-term success. Guest Bio: Dr. Ann Bynum is a board-certified pediatric dentist originally from Ocala, Florida. She completed her undergraduate studies at Florida State University before earning her dental degree from the University of Iowa, where she met her husband, Dr. Matt Bynum. She went on to complete her specialty training in Pediatric Dentistry at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio. In 1997, Dr. Bynum moved to Greenville, South Carolina, and opened her pediatric dental practice in Simpsonville. As a mother of three boys, she brings both professional expertise and personal insight to her care—deeply understanding the art and science of pediatric dentistry and parenting.

A passionate educator and leader, Dr. Bynum has lectured nationally and authored numerous articles on topics such as customer service, marketing, leadership, teamwork, burnout, financial wellness, and pediatric airway health—including tethered oral tissues and sleep-disordered breathing.

Dr. Tifani Torres was raised in South Texas. She can't remember a time when she didn't want to be a Veterinarian.She earned her BS in Animal Science from Texas A&M University in 2008, her DVM from Ross University in 2012. After graduation, she went into equine practice in Ocala, Florida and then into small animal practice in South Florida before returning to Texas to work first on a White Tailed Deer Ranch and then in small animal general and emergency practice before founding her own practice, Back in Motion Veterinary Services, in 2017.She was certified in Acupuncture by Chi University soon after her first equine position, but it wasn't until returning to Texas that she attended the Animal Chiropractic Education Source and was certified in Animal Chiropractic by the AVCA. In addition to acupuncture and chiropractic, she is also certified in Companion Animal Rehabilitation.Back in Motion began as a mobile practice, but has since evolved to a brick and mortar for small animals while continuing to offer mobile equine mobility services. Services include lameness exams and gait analysis, joint injections and orthopedic radiographs as well as shockwave therapy, laser therapy, and small animal hydrotherapy.Please enjoy this conversation with Dr. Tifani Torres as we discuss her education, work history, and expansion into a larger practice space to include haul in facilities for equine work.

What if the thing you keep calling “impossible” is actually the place where Jesus wants to show you just how powerful He is?Maybe you don't have enough. Maybe you've been waiting for an answer for years. Maybe the problem is happening somewhere you can't control. Maybe you've started wondering if God is too late.The Gospel of John gives us a different perspective.Jesus turned water into wine when there wasn't enough. He healed someone without even being physically present. He restored a man who had been suffering for 38 years. And when Lazarus died, Jesus showed that even death wasn't beyond His authority.The point isn't simply that Jesus can perform miracles.The miracle may get your attention, but Jesus wants your allegiance.John tells us that the stories he recorded were written so that we would believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God—and that by believing, we would have life in His name.So what does faith look like when life feels impossible?It means believing BIG by identifying the impossible thing you're facing. It means believing OUT LOUD by making your faith visible through your thoughts, words, time, and resources.Faith isn't believing that God will always do exactly what you want.Faith is believing that Jesus is exactly who He says He is.Your impossibility may be the very place God wants to teach you His sufficiency.

Seath Jackson was a 15-year-old boy from Ocala, Florida, whose 2011 murder stemmed from a bitter breakup and escalating conflict involving his ex-girlfriend, Amber Wright, and her new boyfriend, Michael Bargo. According to prosecutors, Amber lured Seath to a home in Summerfield under the impression that they might reconcile, where Bargo and several others were waiting to ambush him. Seath was brutally attacked, shot, and killed, and the group then attempted to destroy all evidence of this crime occurring. Investigators quickly connected the group to Seath's disappearance, leading to arrests and convictions that revealed a disturbing plot involving jealousy, revenge, and deliberate planning.Click here to join our Patreon.

What if the reason you're exhausted isn't that you're doing too little—but that you're carrying too much?We live in a world that constantly tells us to go faster, do more, work harder, stay connected, make more money, be more productive, and somehow still have time to be present with the people we love.But what is all of that doing to your soul?Jesus gives us a radically different invitation:“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28Jesus isn't just offering physical rest. He offers rest for your soul.In this message, we explore why so many of us feel spiritually and emotionally exhausted—even when we're doing good things—and why the ultimate goal of following Jesus isn't simply faith, obedience, or serving at church.It's union with God.Jesus says in John 15 that He is the vine and we are the branches. Our lives were never meant to be lived disconnected from Him. We were made to remain in Him, receive our life from Him, and find our deepest purpose in Him.The challenge is that our modern lives are filled with noise, distraction, busyness, entertainment, stress, comparison, work, money, phones, and endless demands.Sometimes the devil doesn't need to make us sin.Sometimes he just needs to make us busy.So what do we do?We learn to empty our lives of the things that are crushing our souls so that we can make more room for God to fill us.Because maybe you don't need a monastery.Maybe you need a strategy to get your life back.And maybe the invitation of Jesus is simpler—and more life-giving—than you thought:“Come to me.”

Ajike Owens went to her neighbor's house in Ocala, Florida on June 2, 2023 to confront her about harassing her children. While knocking on a closed, locked metal front door, AJ was shot in the chest by Susan Lorincz. Lorincz tried to claim self defense with Florida's “stand your ground” laws, but there is no question she killed Ajike out of malice after years of harassing the families in the neighborhood.

For 30 years, Derman Kenneth Thomas clocked in at a Georgia zipper plant. Clean record. Wife. Grown kid. Then one night in Ocala, Florida - bored in a motel off the interstate - he opened a hookup app. The girl said she was 14. She told him five times.  He didn't log off. He asked where her parents were.  Chris takes you inside the Marion County sting that put the 55-year-old face-down at midnight, surrounded by tasers and drawn guns just two hours after his first text. The chat logs. The "proof of life" photos. The phone call where Thomas said exactly what he wanted. The Motel 6 pickup plan. Then the interrogation, where Thomas reaches for every excuse in the playbook and keeps landing on one word: he "entertained" it. As if getting caught erases the intent. He turned down a plea deal, gambled on a jury, and lost: guilty on all counts. Ten years in Florida state prison.  Plus: a record 58 arrests in six days, how hookup apps turned kids into a "shopping market.”  Sponsored by: Home Title Lock: Go to https://hometitlelock.com/chrishansen  and use promo code HANSEN to get a FREE title history report and a FREE TRIAL of their Triple Lock Protection!

Have you ever felt like you were doing everything right — in your faith, your relationships, your purpose — and life still knocked you flat? This message is about finding real hope, working through anxiety, and building a foundation your faith and your life can actually stand on when the hard seasons hit.Not because you didn't work hard. Not because you didn't love Jesus enough. But because somewhere underneath the surface, something you built your identity, your purpose, and your spiritual growth on wasn't strong enough to hold the weight.In this message, we're wrapping up our High Ground series at Church of Hope with Jesus' story of two builders — one who built his faith on rock, one who built on sand. Same storm. Same anxiety. Same uncertainty. Completely different outcome. And the difference was never what people could see from the outside.This isn't a message about having a bad day. It's about what's actually holding your life together when the pressure hits — your marriage, your mental health, your finances, your faith, your future. We'll talk about why comfort always looks more appealing than obedience, why "Lord, Lord" isn't the same thing as actually knowing Jesus, and how to build a foundation today that will still be standing when the storm comes tomorrow. Whether you've followed Jesus for years or you're just curious what real faith even looks like when life gets hard, this one's for you.In this video, you'll learn: - Why storms don't create weakness in your life — they expose what was already there - The difference between being a "fan" of Jesus and a "follower" of Jesus - Why choosing convenience over obedience is always more expensive in the long run - Practical steps to build a daily foundation that can actually hold up under pressure

Have you ever wondered if you're actually following Jesus... or just a fan of him?There's a difference — and it's bigger than most of us realize. In this message from our High Ground series, we dig into one of the most convicting passages in the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 7:12-23), where Jesus talks about the Golden Rule, the narrow gate vs. the wide gate, how to recognize a false teacher, and one of the scariest lines in all of Scripture: "Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord' will enter the kingdom of heaven."This isn't about working harder for God or checking more religious boxes. It's about the difference between doing things for Jesus and actually knowing Jesus. Whether you grew up in church, walked away from faith, or you're just spiritually curious and trying to figure out what you actually believe, this message will challenge you to ask an honest question: am I a fan of Jesus, or am I truly following him?In this video, we cover: - What the Golden Rule really means (and where it actually came from) - The narrow gate vs. the wide gate — and why comfort isn't the goal - How to test whether spiritual teaching (or a teacher) is trustworthy - Why doing good things "in Jesus' name" isn't the same as knowing him - What it means to actually walk with God instead of just working for himIf this message speaks to you, here's how to go further:

Welcome to another exciting episode of Ask the Dr., hosted by Dr. Michael Lange and Dr. Susan Summerton, broadcast live from Salem Media Tampa Bay! This week’s show was packed with the latest information on dry eye disease, nutrition, weight management, healthy aging, and exciting new developments from Fortifeye Vitamins and the Lange Eye Institute.

Veteran, businessman and medical professional Mike Crimi wants to prevent Ocala from becoming Orlando. Campaigning for the Dist. 2 seat on the Marion County Commission, Crimi on growth, AI data center risks v benefits, local business support, law enforcement and first responders, and preserving horse farms. And a deep-dive into Marion County's budget ahead of reductions in property taxes.

What if the problem isn't that God hasn't answered your prayers… but that we've misunderstood what prayer is supposed to be?Many of us only pray when we've run out of options. We Google it. We call a friend. We search for answers. We try to fix the problem ourselves—and then, when nothing else works, we finally pray.But Jesus gives us a completely different picture of prayer.In Matthew 7, Jesus says: Ask. Seek. Knock.Prayer isn't about persuading a reluctant God to care about your life. It's about pursuing a loving Father who already knows you, sees you, and cares about what you're facing.In this message, we'll discover how to:• Ask God first—not last• Seek God before seeking solutions• Keep knocking when prayer feels unanswered• Stop praying like a stranger and start approaching God as a son or daughter• Trust God when the answer is “no,” “wait,” or “yes”• Understand how God may be transforming you while you're waitingIf you're struggling with unanswered prayer, anxiety, uncertainty, purpose, relationships, or simply wondering whether God is listening, this message is for you.Sometimes the greatest answer to prayer isn't the circumstance changing.Sometimes it's the person you become while you're waiting.

Have you ever worried so much that you started worrying about the fact that you're worried?60-67% of Americans experience significant daily stress and worry — and honestly, that number feels low some days. Between the economy, relationships, health scares, and just... life, worry has become normal. We've tried to medicate it, educate it, and legislate it away. But what if the answer isn't a technique — what if it's a Person?In this message, we dig into Matthew 6:25-34, where Jesus gives a surprisingly direct (and honestly kind of blunt) answer to anxiety. You'll walk away with:✅ Why worry is like sitting in a rocking chair — all motion, no progress✅ The real reason you don't feel secure, no matter how much you accomplish✅ 3 practical steps to move from worry to worship — Name It, Replace It, Start It✅ Why "what if" is the enemy of peace, and what to replace it with✅ How to start a "GOD DID IT" journal that rebuilds your faith one entry at a timeThis isn't a "just stop worrying" pep talk. It's a real, honest look at anxiety, identity, and what it means to hand your worry to a God who already sees you, already values you, and is already standing in the tomorrow you're afraid of.Worry becomes a strength when you take it to God.If you've ever wrestled with anxiety, fear about the future, financial stress, relationship uncertainty, health concerns, purpose, identity, or simply the pressure of trying to hold everything together, this message is for you.You'll discover three practical, biblical steps to move from worry to worship:✔️ Name it✔️ Replace “what if?” with “what is true”✔️ Start a “GOD DID IT” journalThis isn't about pretending everything is okay. It's about learning to trust a God who is already standing in the tomorrow you're afraid of.

Neal Boortz joined The Kimmer Show live from the Rocky Mountains, where he shared stories from his RV travels, praised the beauty of Colorado, and talked about using Starlink to broadcast from the road. The conversation covered a wide range of topics, including Elon Musk's innovations with reusable rockets, the latest political headlines, and concerns over Iran's actions in the Strait of Hormuz. The pair also discussed Colorado's rise of democratic socialism, Georgia's new statewide ban on cell phones in K-8 public schools, and the growing influence of social media on younger generations. Lighter moments included reminiscing about Willie B., horse racing, the World Equestrian Center in Ocala, clever roadside billboards, tipping etiquette, and Kimmer's beloved barn cats. The interview wrapped up with Boortz wishing listeners a happy Independence Day, while Kimmer thanked him for joining the show and looked ahead to the station's holiday celebration and contest giveaway.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if the thing standing between you and a life that actually feels meaningful has nothing to do with how hard you pray — and everything to do with what you're doing with your money?That might sound uncomfortable. But Jesus wasn't shy about it.In this message, Pastor Mark Cummins opens up one of the most misunderstood teachings Jesus ever gave — and it just might change the way you see generosity, purpose, and what it means to live a life that actually matters.Here's the truth most people miss: Jesus didn't talk about money because He needed it. He talked about it because He knew that wherever your treasure goes, your heart will eventually follow. And if your heart is in the wrong place, everything else suffers — your relationships, your peace, your sense of purpose, your faith.Whether you grew up in church or you're just starting to ask questions about faith, this one's for you.In this message we'll walk through Matthew 6 and unpack:— Why your motives matter more than your actions ever will— How to stop living like you own what God actually gave you— What it really means to store up treasure in heaven (and why it's more practical than it sounds)— Why generosity isn't about how much you have — it's about who owns your heart— How to break free from trying to serve two masters at onceThis is not about guilt. This is not about the offering plate. This is about the freedom, joy, and clarity that comes when you start living as a manager of God's mission — instead of an owner trying to protect your own little empire.

Have you ever been hurt by someone and had no idea what to do with the pain?Maybe it was a friend who betrayed you. A parent who let you down. A coworker, an ex, someone in your own family. And somewhere along the way, you were told the "Christian" response is to just smile, stay silent, and let it happen again.Here's the truth: that's not what Jesus taught.In this message, we're breaking down one of the most misunderstood passages in the Bible — Matthew 5:38-48 — where Jesus talks about turning the other cheek, going the extra mile, and loving your enemies. For centuries people have read this as "be a doormat." But Jesus wasn't asking you to be a doormat for people to trample on. He was inviting you to become a doorway His grace can flow through.We'll walk through Jesus' actual 4-step plan for conflict and pain:1. Refuse retaliation — don't become what hurt you2. Create healthy boundaries — turning the other cheek isn't surrendering your responsibility for your life3. Choose generosity over bitterness4. Love and pray for the people who hurt you mostThis isn't about pretending you weren't hurt. It's about not letting what hurt you decide who you become. Whether you're walking with Jesus already or just trying to figure out what real faith, hope, and forgiveness actually look like — this one's for you.

Have you ever felt like you're losing the same battle over and over again — and no matter how hard you try, it just doesn't get better? You're not alone. And this message is for you.We live in a world that's obsessed with desire — and the church often responds with shame, rules, and "just try harder." But what if the real solution isn't fighting harder... it's wanting something better?In this message, we unpack what Jesus actually said about lust, sexual sin, and the desires of the human heart. The answer isn't what most people expect — and it might completely change the way you see your struggle.

Today's Ask the Dr. was an outstanding discussion focused on the natural management of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), retinal health, healthy aging, and the latest advances in nutrition and photobiomodulation therapy. Joined by guest host Roger P. Schulman, we explored the growing body of evidence supporting the role of nutrition, lifestyle, weight management, exercise, and targeted supplementation in helping support retinal health and visual function. During the program, I shared insights gained from more than 300,000 patient encounters throughout my career, primarily caring for older adults affected by age-related macular degeneration and other retinal diseases. We discussed my involvement in DNA studies related to AMD, SpectraCell micronutrient testing, Omega Index research, and the BLAZE Study (Beta-Carotene, Lutein, Alpha-Carotene and Zeaxanthin Absorption Study), which demonstrated that beta-carotene can interfere with the absorption of lutein and zeaxanthin—two critical carotenoids for macular health. With academic training in psychology, physiological optics, optometry, and certification as a nutrition specialist, I explained how these experiences helped shape the development of Fortifeye Next Gen Macular Defense and Fortifeye Next Gen Zinc-Free Macular Defense. These formulations have evolved through 17 reformulations and continue to evolve as new scientific evidence emerges. My philosophy has always been that nutritional science is constantly advancing, and nutritional supplementation should advance with it. We also discussed the exciting field of photobiomodulation therapy for AMD, including the technologies currently offered by Alcon Valeda Light Therapy and MD Elite. Several callers shared positive experiences and testimonials regarding red light, yellow light, and near-infrared light therapy for retinal health. In addition, we announced that Fortifeye Fit Pro Ultimate Muscle Fuel is officially back in stock. We also reviewed the benefits of Fortifeye Fit Meal and Fortifeye Super Omega, emphasizing the importance of proper protein intake, omega-3 fatty acids, muscle preservation, healthy aging, and overall wellness. Finally, we announced that Lange Eye Institute is actively hiring as we continue our expansion, including opportunities at our current locations and our upcoming Ocala facility. Thank you to all of our listeners and callers who made today's program informative, engaging, and inspiring. Your questions, experiences, and testimonials continue to make Ask the Dr. one of the most interactive and educational health programs in America. #AskTheDr #DrMichaelLange #MacularDegeneration #AMD #EyeHealth #RetinaHealth #Fortifeye #NextGenMacularDefense #ZincFreeMacularDefense #Photobiomodulation #Valeda #MDElite #Lutein #Zeaxanthin #Omega3 #HealthyAging #Nutrition #Longevity #Protein #FitMeal #FitPro #SuperOmega #LangeEyeInstitute #Ocala #TheVillages #VisionHealthSupport the show: https://www.drmichaellange.com/category/ask-the-doctor/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Have you ever sat in church, raised your hands in worship, and still felt a wall between you and God — and you couldn't figure out why?Jesus could.In Matthew 5, He doesn't start with the big sins. He starts with anger. Because He knows what most of us won't admit: the thing we've buried emotionally always surfaces behaviorally. The cold shoulder. The sharp comment. The slow burn that's been going for months — maybe years.In this message, we unpack one of the most honest and unexpected teachings Jesus ever gave — and what it means for your relationships, your mental and emotional health, and your walk with God right now.You'll discover:- Why anger itself isn't the sin — and what actually crosses the line- The difference between explosive anger (like Moses) and implosive anger (like the older brother) — and why both are dangerous- What Jesus meant when He said leave your gift at the altar- How accumulated hurt becomes relational debt — and how to start paying it down- Three practical steps to move from reaction to redemptionWhether you're carrying something from a friendship, a family member, a coworker, or even someone in your church — this message is for you.Jesus didn't just preach about forgiveness. He modeled it from a cross.And He's still inviting you to Higher Ground.If this message encouraged you, make sure to like, subscribe, and share it with someone who needs hope today.

Protecting Muscle & Health While Using GLP-1 Weight Loss Medications with Dr. Michael Lange & Dr. Susan Summerton. On today’s edition of Ask the Dr, Dr. Michael Lange and Dr. Susan Summerton opened the show with exciting news about the continued expansion of the Lange brand. Dr. Lange announced that Lange Eye Institute is expanding into the Ocala area after purchasing the historic 1939 Coca-Cola Bottling Plant in Ocala, Florida. The iconic landmark is being transformed into the future home of Lange Eye Institute Ocala, a state-of-the-art eye care center that will feature some of the latest technology for diagnosing, treating, and managing eye disease and optimizing visual performance. The discussion also focused on the rapid growth and expansion of Fortifeye Vitamins and the company’s continued development of science-based nutritional supplements designed to help support total body wellness, muscle health, cognitive function, metabolism, and healthy aging. Dr. Lange and Dr. Summerton emphasized that one of the biggest nutritional mistakes many people make is failing to consume enough high-quality protein, especially at breakfast. Dr. Lange described his own breakfast from this morning, which included eggs, red bell peppers, mushrooms, pomegranate, and a nutrient-packed beverage made with spring water, chocolate Fortifeye Rejuvenate, Fortifeye Creapure® Creatine + myHMB® + Vitamin D, along with one Fortifeye Focus supplement. The doctors discussed how creatine and myHMB are not only important for muscle growth and strength, but also may play a major role in brain health, cognition, metabolism, recovery, and healthy aging. Dr. Lange explained the importance of using German-made Creapure® creatine, emphasizing that if a creatine supplement does not specifically say “Creapure®,” it typically originates from China. He discussed how Fortifeye’s formula combines creatine, myHMB®, and vitamin D in a synergistic ratio designed to maximize muscle protein synthesis, support fat metabolism, help combat myostatin activity, and optimize cognitive benefits. The conversation then shifted into GLP-1 medications and the growing concerns regarding potential side effects. Dr. Lange and Dr. Summerton discussed how some adverse events may not be solely caused by the medication itself, but may instead be related to underlying health conditions, dehydration, nutrient deficiencies, muscle wasting, and rapid weight loss. They discussed concerns such as sarcopenia, “Ozempic face,” dehydration, and even ischemic optic neuropathy. The doctors focused heavily on science-based strategies to combat the negative effects often associated with aggressive weight loss programs and GLP-1 drugs. They emphasized the importance of maintaining muscle mass through proper protein intake, resistance training, hydration, targeted nutritional supplementation, and consuming carbohydrates strategically — especially after workouts when muscles are primed to replenish glycogen stores and recover. Dr. Lange explained why carbohydrates are not the enemy and discussed the importance of post-workout carbohydrate intake for muscle recovery, hormone balance, metabolism, and performance. The doctors also discussed some of the potential negative consequences associated with long-term ketogenic dieting, chronic fasting, and excessive cold plunges when taken to extremes. They explained that many trends marketed as “healthy” may actually create hormonal imbalance, nutrient deficiencies, loss of muscle mass, metabolic slowdown, and accelerated aging if not approached correctly. The show also highlighted the concept of “skinny fat,” where individuals lose weight rapidly but also lose valuable muscle tissue, leaving them appearing frail, weak, wrinkled, and metabolically unhealthy. To combat this growing problem, Dr. Lange discussed the development of the Fortifeye Fit Transformation System, designed to help individuals lose unhealthy body fat while maintaining muscle mass, skin integrity, strength, and overall vitality. The program concluded with Dr. Lange announcing that the highly anticipated Fortifeye Fit Pro is finally back in stock and available again in two flavors after being on back order. This episode of Ask the Dr delivered a powerful message centered around science-based nutrition, muscle preservation, brain health, healthy aging, strategic supplementation, and the critical importance of adequate protein intake — especially for individuals using GLP-1 medications or following aggressive weight loss programs. #AskTheDr #DrMichaelLange #DrSusanSummerton #GLP1 #Ozempic #Protein #MuscleHealth #BrainHealth #Creatine #Creapure #myHMB #HealthyAging #WeightLoss #Fitness #Nutrition #Sarcopenia #OzempicFace #Fortifeye #FortifeyeFitPro #FortifeyeFitTransformationSystem #FortifeyeVitamins #EyeHealth #CognitiveHealth #Longevity #LangeEyeInstitute #Ocala #Wellness #Metabolism #WheyProtein #ScienceBasedNutritionSupport the show: https://www.drmichaellange.com/category/ask-the-doctor/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if cat sitting isn't a side-service anymore, but one of the fastest-maturing lanes in professional pet care? Collin sits down with Beth Pasek (Finicky Cat), Shannon Hendon (Ocala Pet Sitting), and Grace Taylor (Furever Friends Cat Sitting) to unpack why cat-only services are growing, what "maturing" looks like in client expectations, and how education around stress, behavior, and enrichment is reshaping demand. They discuss how veterinary-adjacent care shows up in real homes (especially with medical cases) and why language, scope, and standards matter as specialization increases. The group also tackles pricing, staffing, team structures, and the realities of cash flow when revenue is seasonal and peaky. The takeaway: cat sitting is not a fad, it's segmenting, professionalizing, and creating new opportunities for operators who build standards and stick to them. Main topics: Cat sitting industry growth and maturity Cat stress, behavior, enrichment Medical cats and scope Pricing, staffing, team models Technology, automation, reliability Main takeaway: "Businesses live and die on cash flow." That's true in every industry, but it's especially true in cat sitting, where busy seasons can feel like a tidal wave and slow months can sneak up fast. The answer isn't panic pricing or breaking your standards to "stay busy." It's knowing your patterns, planning ahead, and building a model that's honest about the highs and lows. Your care can be excellent and still fail if the business side isn't stable. Cat sitting is growing, so let's build it to last. About our guests: Beth Pasek runs Finicky Cat Sitting and Behavior in Cleveland, Ohio, with a cats-only focus and deep experience supporting behavior and medical-needs cases. Shannon Hendon is the founder of Ocala Pet Sitting in Central Florida and the Vice President of the Florida Pet Services Association, bringing two decades of industry experience and a cat-only transition perspective. Grace Taylor owns Furever Friends Cat Sitting in Baltimore, leading a cats-only team specializing in medical cats and building systems to support high-touch care at scale. Together, they represent a wide range of approaches to feline-focused business models and standards.

NSP:314 — KillShot, Deep Apnea & the Real Shark Shield Story | Ed Martin Ed Martin is one of those blokes who genuinely can't help himself — after years running a dive shop, guiding charters, and building timber spearguns under the KillShot brand in the Florida Keys, he bought carbon fibre fin company Deep Apnea, got involved in bringing Shark Shield back to market, and watched it all peak and crash at the same time. He's since closed the shop, sold the boat, moved 400 miles north to an 80-acre former turtle farm near Ocala, and is now running two manufacturing businesses out of separate buildings he's literally wiring himself.
