The recent podcast episode delivers a comprehensive update regarding the severe weather outbreak that transpired on March 6, 2026, specifically focusing on the tornado events that impacted southwest Michigan and adjacent areas. Notably, the National Weather Service has confirmed multiple tornado tracks, detailing various EF ratings alongside operationally pertinent information such as fatalities, injuries, and estimated peak winds. The episode underscores the ongoing survey efforts being conducted to ascertain precise path data, particularly for the tornado track in Three Rivers, Michigan, where the assessment remains preliminary pending final review. Furthermore, it highlights the declaration of a state of emergency in affected counties, which is essential for facilitating response and recovery operations. I encourage listeners to remain informed as we navigate through the implications of these severe weather events.Takeaways:* The National Weather Service confirmed multiple tornado tracks and impacts from the March 6 event.* Ongoing survey work will continue into Monday to assess the Three Rivers tornado.* The EF ratings and fatalities from the tornadoes are preliminary and pending review.* A state of emergency has been declared in counties impacted by the severe weather.* Key communications for emergency response are essential during severe weather events.* IWCE 2026 is a critical event for professionals involved in communications and emergency management.SponsorIWCE, https://go.emnmedia.com/IWCE2026SourcesNOAA / NWS, NWS Northern Indiana — Public Information Statement: “NWS Damage Survey for 03/06/2026 Tornado Event Update 3” (issued Mar. 8, 2026)MichiganCBS Detroit — Whitmer declares state of emergency after tornadoes touch down in southern Michigan (updated Mar. 8, 2026)13abc/WILX — State of emergency officially declared in Southwest Michigan after deadly tornadoes (published Mar. 8, 2026) This is a public episode.

Much contemporary debate centres on the respective roles of judges and politicians. Should constitutions empower courts to decide questions about human rights, or should such matters be settled by elected representatives? And should the core rules of democracy be shielded from manipulation by those in power? These questions ultimately turn on how we understand the nature of constitutions themselves. Are constitutions primarily legal instruments that set the framework within which politics operates? Or are they fundamentally political in character, relying not only on laws but also on conventions and democratic practices upheld by politicians? While this may sound abstract, the stakes are immediate and real. Ongoing debates about the future of the European Convention on Human Rights, the resilience of democratic institutions, and the risks posed by populist governments all hinge on these deeper constitutional questions. Fresh light on these issues comes from a new book, Defending the Political Constitution. Our guest is Richard Bellamy, Professor of Political Science at University College London, who joins me to explore what it means to defend a political rather than legal vision of constitutionalism. Mentioned in this episode: Defending the Political Constitution by Richard Bellamy.

The Trump administration attacked Iran over the weekend, bringing the US into a now widening conflict in the middle east. Airstrikes have killed leaders and senior officials in Iran, including the country’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.    Gatherings were held in Portland over the weekend to both protest and celebrate the military action in Iran. On Saturday, protesters gathered to condemn the US involvement in a war in Iran. On Sunday, hundreds of Iranian people in Portland gathered to celebrate the death of Khamenei, and to support the US and Israel’s military action against the Iranian government.   Samira Sahebi is the secretary of the board of directors at Free Iran PDX, a community support organization for Iranians living in Portland. Sahebi joins us to discuss the Iranian community in Oregon’s response to the ongoing conflict.

The Public Service Commissioner is bewildered as pay talks with primary teachers drag on. Their union —the NZEI— has turned to the Employment Relations Authority after three days of talks failed to resolve disputes over cost-of-living increases and recognition for major curriculum changes. The union's rejected three offers, with teachers missing out on around $50 extra per week since January. Sir Brian Roche told Mike Hosking it's disappointing teachers don't know the details of each offer. He says the last time teachers were asked was in December, and he doesn't know what the percentage of the vote was. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Last month, former San Leandro Councilman Bryan Azevedo pleaded guilty in a federal court to two counts of corruption in connection with accepting a bribe from local businessmen.Azevedo has agreed to cooperate with prosecutors in an ongoing federal corruption probe that has already led to indictments against former Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao, her partner, Andre Jones, and Andy and David Duong, the owners of California Waste Solutions -- Oakland's largest recycling contractor. Their trials are scheduled for the fall.But Azevedo's plea has raised speculation about the nature of the ongoing probe and also raised the possibility that other current or former local elected officials are being investigated for possible wrongdoing.Nathan Gartrell is an award-winning reporter for the East Bay Times, who covers state and federal courts in Northern California.

Most men don't fall apart overnight… they drift into isolation.   In this powerful conversation, Coach Frank Rich sits down with Nate Dewberry, Director of The Redeemed, to expose what may be the most overlooked crisis facing men today: the silent epidemic of loneliness and disconnection.   From the front lines of men in crisis, Nate shares a sobering truth — many men who look successful on paper have no one they can call when life hits the fan. Together, Frank and Nate unpack why modern male friendships lack depth, how digital life has created the illusion of connection, and why real brotherhood is forged through shared struggle and mission.   Nate also opens up about his own deeply personal journey through performance pressure, pornography as a coping mechanism, marriage breakdown, and the crushing shame that followed. What ultimately changed his life was not behavior management… but an identity transformation rooted in being fully known and still accepted.   This episode is a wake-up call for the modern man who feels busy, successful — and quietly alone.   If you've ever felt disconnected, stuck in secret struggle, or unsure of your purpose, this conversation will hit home.     What You'll Learn In This Episode Why loneliness — not lack of success — is the real crisis facing men   The difference between acquaintances and true brotherhood   How shared suffering creates deep male bonds   The hidden danger of performance-based identity   Nate's raw story of porn, shame, and marriage collapse   Why behavior change fails without identity change   How cultural messages may be suppressing vision in young men   Why every man needs something worth fighting for   The power of men calling other men higher   Practical first steps for men who feel isolated today   How structured brotherhood accelerates healing and growth   Key Takeaway You don't stop destructive behaviors by white-knuckling discipline. You become the man who no longer needs them.   Real transformation begins with identity — and it is sustained through brotherhood.     About Nate Dewberry Nathan "Nate" Dewberry serves as Director of The Redeemed, a faith-based ministry dedicated to helping men in crisis find connection, healing, and purpose through authentic community and spiritual growth.   Nate brings a unique blend of pastoral leadership and real-world experience. He has served in multiple ministry roles including student pastor, associate pastor, and administrative pastor, and previously worked with Global Teen Challenge, a nationwide faith-based addiction recovery network.   After walking through his own season of personal failure, divorce, and identity rebuilding, Nate now uses his story to help men who feel stuck, isolated, or disqualified by their past. His passion is simple but urgent: create spaces where men can be fully known and not walk alone.     About The Redeemed The Redeemed is a men's ministry and community platform designed to help men pursue authentic brotherhood, spiritual growth, and personal transformation.   Their model centers around: Small, facilitator-led men's groups (typically 10 men + 2 leaders) Programs ranging from 6–13 weeks Honest conversations around wins, losses, and real life struggles Leadership and character development Biblical and practical growth resources Ongoing online community support "Starting Point" sessions for new men exploring the community   The mission is clear: No man walks alone.   The Redeemed is not intended to replace the local church but to complement it by providing male-focused spaces where men can speak openly about struggles they may not yet feel comfortable sharing elsewhere.   --- Connect with Frank and The Super Human Life on Social Media: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachfrankrich/   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/584284948647477/   Website: http://www.thesuperhumanlifepodcast.com/tshlhome   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjB4UrpxtNO2AFtDURMzoKQ

The curious case of Alperen Sengun continued over the weekend, Houston..

Iran has threatened shipping in the Persian Gulf and Straits of Hormuz as fighting between the country and the US and Israel escalates. Today, US President Donald Trump says he took the decision to launch a war against Iran because it was the "last, best chance" to stop the country's regime. We devote the entire programme to the conflict, and enlist a panel of experts to guide us through it: Rana Rahimpour is an Iranian-British journalist and former BBC Persian presenter and reporter; Kirsten Fontenrose was senior director for the Gulf at The US National Security Council in the first Trump Administration; and Sir Simon Fraser is a former head of the Foreign Office, now Chair of the British foreign policy institute Chatham House.Here in the UK, Sir Keir Starmer has said the UK's decision not to join the US-Israeli strikes on Iran was "deliberate", adding his government "does not believe in regime change from the skies". We assess the state of relations between the US and UK.

Send a textRole of bile acids in cholesterol regulation, digestion & metabolic diseases like diabetes.TOPICS DISCUSSED:Bile acids basics: They enable cholesterol excretion, with about half of bodily cholesterol eliminated this way, and also aid digestion by emulsifying fats to increase enzyme access.Bile production & pathway: Synthesized in liver hepatocytes, bile flows via ducts to the gallbladder for storage or directly to the small intestine; post-meal, cholecystokinin triggers gallbladder contraction for fat emulsification.Regulation of bile acids: Self-regulated to prevent cytotoxicity, as excess can damage cell membranes; insulin and bile acids themselves influence synthesis and transport, with defects in insulin-resistant states.Bile acids in metabolic diseases: Increased synthesis, especially 12-hydroxylated types, occurs in type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance, potentially as an adaptation for better nutrient absorption during perceived scarcity.Gallbladder removal & gallstones: Common due to cholesterol supersaturation forming stones; removal eliminates concentration but preserves bile flow, reducing tolerance for high-fat meals.Bariatric surgery impacts: Procedures like gastric bypass increase circulating bile acids without major synthesis changes, while more extreme ones boost synthesis due to impaired intestinal sensing.Cholesterol homeostasis: Cells tightly regulate membrane cholesterol for fluidity and signaling; most bodily cholesterol is synthesized internally, with LDL receptors key to blood levels.Ongoing research: Haeusler's lab explores manganese's role in metabolism, bile acids in liver inflammation, and insulin's effects on lipoproteins.ABOUT THE GUEST: Rebecca Haeusler, PhD is an associate professor at Columbia University in the departments of medicine and pathology and cell biology, affiliated with the Naomi Berrie Diabetes Center and the Digestive and Liver Diseases Research Center.RELATED EPISODE:M&M 269 | Soybean Oil: Obesity, Fatty Liver Disease, Gut Health, IBS & Colitis | Frances SladekSupport the showHealth Products by M&M Partners: SporesMD: Premium mushrooms products (gourmet mushrooms, nootropics, research).

Let us chat about today the inches all around us and also about how there is no market in healthcare all at once in this show. Today I am talking with Ivana Krajcinovic. And let me give you some examples of the inches. Two members of a plan get infusions at a hospital. And if these two members had gone down the street to get their infusions, the total cost of the two of them would have been $1 million less … $1 million less! How many inches is a million dollars? For a full transcript of this episode, click here. If you enjoy this podcast, be sure to subscribe to the free weekly newsletter to be a member of the Relentless Tribe. Or the examples Ivana Krajcinovic talks about coming up where an independent practice was charging $135 for a chemo infusion and the hospital down the street was charging for the same exact drug, by the way—the same exact infusion—$13,560 … $135 versus $13,560! We talk about affordability in this country? Member's paying coinsurance off that 13K, by the way. And if you're doing the math at home, that is a 10,000% markup. Or if we start from the Medicare price, it was a 40,000% markup. Then there's another example that Ivana talks about where a plan member went to a hospital and got a $90,000 bill for a series of infusions that, again, down the street would have been $185—all in. Inches much? So, it's pretty clear why the show is part of "The Inches Are All Around Us" series. Why do I say this is part of the "No Market" series? Because look, functioning markets rationalize prices. That's just what they do. So, if you have two places in the exact same geography and one of them is charging 500 times or whatever the other one, you don't have a market if they're both still in business a year later. Ongoing wild price variations is a big tell that there's no market to be had. Another tell, though, is that carrier networks, who are supposed to be the demand curve here—or at least that's what their marketing says or what we are all kind of led to believe—they advertise as high-value networks, right? The fact that any given network experiences essentially no business repercussions for spending a million dollars extra of its plan sponsors' (its customers') money—because that's who's paying for this, the self-insured employer or union, at the end of the day—and the network, the carrier network doesn't lose business as a result … Right? Listen to the show from last week with Jacob Asher, MD (Take Two: EP398) about the carrier nonmarket and why this is the case. But bottom line, if anyone is waiting on a market to constrain prices for them, that is very magical thinking. Where this whole thing is gonna wind up, by the way, is with my guest today, Ivana Krajcinovic, suggesting a roadmap to make a whole lot more likely that you'll pay $135 for an infusion instead of 13 grand. For more on this, do go back and listen to the show with Keith Hartman, RPh, by the way. We teed this off a couple of years ago. That was episode 369. But in Ivana's upcoming roadmap that you're gonna hear about (just doubling down on the spoilers—if I'm gonna do something, I might as well do it well), but in that roadmap, direct contracts with indie practices will feature a starring role. I'm telling you this because if you're one of those folks that listens to like 23 minutes of any given podcast and then bails, make sure you make it to around the 30-minute mark of the show. As I have said several times already, my guest today is the incomparable Ivana Krajcinovic, the outgoing vice president of healthcare delivery at UNITE HERE HEALTH. Ivana has just retired, but she spent over three decades with her team protecting the health and the hard-earned wages of 230,000 hospitality workers. She is exactly the kind of "dangerous expert" that we love to have on the show—someone with the wisdom about how the system actually works and the articulate willingness to talk about it. Okay … so, this conversation about the inches and the nonmarket for infusions specifically in this country, for more information, do go back and read the really excellent Bloomberg News exposé by John Tozzi. It's a really good article, and you'll see everything that we talk about today in writing with all the fact-checking that one would expect from Bloomberg News. So, okay … what we'll do in this episode is, first, we're gonna talk about the infusion nonmarket, the inches and its implications, such as an infusion costing 500 times Medicare when there are 1.5x Medicare options in the same exact health system. Sometimes I just can't even with some of this stuff. But another nonmarket tell, again, is that carrier networks are still in business. We talk all about that. What happens next in this episode is we deconstruct the roadmap that Ivana used to fight back, which starts with (no surprises) drilling into data and ends with direct contracting with independent doctors. And how that happens is by carving out utilization management so that there is site-of-care steerage. So, this is a conversation about fiduciary duty. It's a conversation about transparency, the power of collective action. This podcast is sponsored by Aventria Health Group with an assist from Payerset.

Combining her training as a health economist with more than 30 years working directly with immigrants and the working poor, Ivana oversaw a wide variety of projects. She has deep expertise in engaging participants, ranging from benefit education to chronic disease self-management, as well as in developing peer-to-peer programs. Ivana led a team whose challenge was to radically bend the cost curve while maintaining quality coverage as every dollar that UHH spends on healthcare is a dollar that could go to a worker in wages—higher wages that are likely to do more for workers' health than increasing spending on their healthcare. Ivana and her team have utilized narrow networks, value-based contracts, and direct contracting and have established health centers designed for their members. Ivana has a PhD in economics from Yale University and is the author of From Company Doctors to Managed Care: The United Mineworkers' Noble Experiment (Cornell University Press).   00:00 $135 vs $13,560: How infusion drug prices play into the "Inches All Around Us" series. 02:02 How infusion drug pricing fits into the "No Market" series. 03:19 A roadmap and more episodes on this topic. 04:36 Introducing this week's expert, Ivana Krajcinovic, PhD. 05:10 A must-read Bloomberg News article on infusion pricing. 05:33 An overview of what to expect from this episode. 06:54 The first tell of the infusion nonmarket. 07:41 The price variations that Ivana has seen in the infusion nonmarket. 11:39 How hospital spend affects wage increases affects patients and employees twice over. 12:04 EP373 with Cora Opsahl. 13:43 The second tell of the infusion nonmarket. 14:33 Take Two: EP398 with Jacob Asher, MD. 14:55 EP483 with Jonathan Baran. 16:15 Why networks are apathetic to this pricing discrepancy. 17:55 The factors that play into the nonmarket issue of infusion drug pricing variations. 18:26 EP475 with Peter Hayes. 19:18 EP370 with Erik Davis and Autumn Yongchu. 19:45 Are pricing discrepancies easy to spot? 22:38 Where we have power in a nonmarket situation. 23:22 A recap of the advice in the show so far. 23:39 EP493 with John Quinn. 23:41 EP496 with Mark Newman. 25:51 How you place pricing pressure on an entity. 28:47 EP482 with Preston Alexander. 29:34 How an improved market creates time for better care coordination. 30:52 EP486 with Stan Schwartz, MD. 33:23 The fourth part of the roadmap. 36:41 EP492 and EP490 with Sam Flanders, MD, and Shane Cerone. 36:49 Why serving the community and being fiscally responsible should go hand in hand. 38:05 EP500 with Stacey.   You can learn more at uhh.org and by connecting with Ivana on LinkedIn.   Ivana Krajcinovic, PhD, discusses #infusion #drugpricing on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #financialhealth #commericalpayermarketplace #digitalhealth #healthcareleadership #healthcaretransformation #healthcareinnovation   Recent past interviews: Click a guest's name for their latest RHV episode!
