    In his weekly clinical update, Dr. Griffin with Vincent Racaniello are alarmed at how RFK is breaking his promise of not altering vaccine policies, and nonexistent data and studies are used by members of the ACIP to make changes to immunization practices in the absence of a CDC director, justification for not honoring the US commitment to GAVI and global public policies including support of routine childhood immunizations, placing millions of children at risk for the return of vaccine preventable diseases including polio outbreaks in Pappa New Guinea and increased circulation of wildtype type 1 poliovirus, before Dr. Griffin reviews recent statistics on RSV, influenza and SARS-CoV-2 infections, the Wasterwater Scan dashboard, approval of Merck's anti-RSV mRNA monoclonal antibody, whether or not the NB.1.8.1 should be included in the fall 2025 vaccines, immunization recommendations for COVID-19 vaccines, where to find PEMGARDA, changes in COVID mRNA vaccine labeling and reframing of the science around the vaccine, provides information for Columbia University Irving Medical Center's long COVID treatment center, where to go for answers to your long COVID questions, and contacting your federal government representative to stop the assault on science and biomedical research Subscribe (free): Apple Podcasts, RSS, email Become a patron of TWiV!

    559. Modeling Persuasion and Connectivity: From Pandemics to Finance feat. Adam Kucharski

    There is a shift happening in the complex world of proof. Simulation and probabilistic approaches are increasingly accepted as ‘good enough' in areas traditionally dominated by exact proofs. Persuasion depends on the degree of certainty needed.Adam Kucharski is a professor at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, and also the author of three books, Proof: The Art and Science of Certainty, The Rules of Contagion: Why Things Spread--And Why They Stop, and The Perfect Bet: How Science and Math Are Taking the Luck Out of Gambling.Greg and Adam discuss the versatile concept of 'proof', examining how it applies differently across mathematics, law, medicine, and practical decision-making. Adam discusses the challenges of proving concepts under uncertainty, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the role of intuition versus formal modeling in various fields. They also explore the crossover of epidemiological principles into finance, marketing, cybersecurity, and online content dynamics, illustrating the universal relevance of contagion theories. The episode highlights how simulation and probabilistic approaches are increasingly accepted in areas traditionally dominated by exact proofs.*unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:The gap between science and policy09:25: One of the challenges we had in COVID is this dimension of a problem where all directions had a lot of enormous downsides, and countries were having to make that under pressure. And even one of the things that I think I did not really appreciate at the time was, even later in the year, when a lot of these questions about the severity, a lot of these questions about transmission, had really been resolved because we had much better data. We still had a lot of this tension demanding, "Oh, we cannot be sure about something," or "You know, we need much, much higher evidence." And I think that is the gap between where kind of science lies and where policy lies.It's not the content, it's the contagion37:59: I think a lot of people think about the content, but obviously it is not just, "It is something goes viral." It is not just about the content. It is not about what you have written; it is about the network through which it is spreading. It is about the susceptibility of that network. It is about the medium you use. Do you have it that lingers somewhere? Is it just something you stick on the feed and it kind of vanishes? So, there is a direct analogy there with the different elements and how they trade off in ultimately what you see in terms of spread.What human networks can't teach us about machines46:35: One thing that is really interesting about computer systems is the variation in contacts you see in the network is enormous. You basically get some hubs that are just connected to a huge number of computers, and some are connected to very few at all. So that makes the transmission much burster.It is not like—so humans have some variation in their contacts—but most people have about 10 contacts a day, in terms of conversations or people they exchange words with. Some more, some less, but you do not have people generally have like 10,000 contacts in a day, whereas in computers you can have that. So it makes the potential for some things to actually persist at quite low levels for quite a long time because it will kind of hit this application and then simmer along, and then hit another one and simmer along.Show Links:Recommended Resources:EuclidGeorge E.

    Much like photos, songs enable us to relive the most special moments of our lives. Thumbing through the pages of a scrapbook or scrolling through your phone resemblesdropping the needle on your favorite record or scouring a playlist. In similar fashion,Vacation Manor crystallize those moments and memories in the echoes of shimmering guitars, glistening keys, upbeat sunny grooves, and iridescent melodies. On their 2021 self-titled full-length debut, Vacation Manor [Nettwerk], the Virginia duo—Nathan Towles [vocals, guitar] and Cole Young [drums]—stitch together shared and personal experiences in a patchwork of vibrant and vivid alternative anthems.Vacation Manor continue to sail those lifeboats back and forth. In 2016, they introduced themselves via the debut Girl, Say EP followed by Everything I Can't Say Out Loud two years later. Racking up over 60 million streams, they continued to entrance and engage listeners. During 2020, they teased out the album with the Thoughts In Progress, Pt. 1 EP—comprising four songs from the upcoming full-length. Garnering critical acclaim, Atwood Magazine applauded it as “another installment of what Vacation Manor does best – creating songs laden with earworm lyrics and bright sounds.” Over the past two years, they carefully architected this body of work. Vacation Manor retreated to Joshua Tree to record with producer Charlie Stavish before making intermittent trips back and forth to Nashville from February 2020 through September 2020 where they worked with Kyle Cummings.“All of these places and people gave the album different vibes,” Cole goes on. “It made it feel interesting, because there were a lot of peaks and valleys. Nathan and I had been quarantining together in Virginia, because we lived one street away from each other at the time. We would drive to Nashville, go to the studio, and head back to our hotel room. The Pandemic made everything a lot more intense. The good thing was there were no distractions.”The album culminates on the introspective melodic bliss of “Ending Credits.” The guitar glows in the background as the vocals reflect the warmth of Nathan's delivery before he offers a fitting conclusion to this trip. “I was trying to write something that wasn't too directly about quarantine,” he says. “It was hard to avoid, because you can't really go anywhere, and everything felt heavier all the time. I live on a street where there are always people running by because there's an old college on the other side. It was weird for it to be springtime and not see anyone. There was a strange darkness to the moment, but the song has a sad sense of hope.” “It's a song you might listen to when you're walking home alone from a bar at the end of the night,” adds Cole. “‘Ending Credits' is really about missing normalcy. There are so many feelings inside of it.”In the end, all of those feelings make Vacation Manor worth revisiting—much like your favorite photo album. “If you listen to the whole record, I hope it's like watching a movie you relate to,” Cole leaves off. “Even though we've been a band for so long, it encompasses our personal tastes and experiences.” “It's a culmination of the last seven years, because we started as a garage band and ended up making a record we're really proud of,” Nathan agrees. “Every part of our collective personality was represented. I'm excited to relive all of the things that led us to make this. It's Vacation Manor.” Thanks for listening!!!

    "Older adults have this special clarity about who they are and what they want, which is incredibly inspiring," says Dr. Julia Hiner, explaining, in part, why she loves her work as a geriatrician in Houston, Texas. She also enjoys the challenge of the medical complexity these patients present and the opportunity it creates to see the patient as a whole person. In fact, as you'll hear in this upbeat conversation with Raise the Line host Lindsey Smith, there's almost nothing about geriatrics that Dr. Hiner does not enjoy, which explains her passion for teaching the subject at McGovern Medical School at the University of Texas Health Science Center in Houston and trying to convince more students to pursue it as their specialty.  The need is great, given that there are only 8,000 geriatricians in the US despite a rapidly growing senior population. Tune in to learn why Dr. Hiner thinks clinicians avoid the field and the steps that can be taken to improve the situation, including requiring courses in geriatrics. You'll also learn about the importance of capacity assessments, the troubling, and under-reported, problem of elder mistreatment, ageism among health professionals and much more in this super informative episode. Mentioned in this episode:University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston McGovern Medical School  If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Plus, the Liberals have laid out their plans for Canada's economy — which includes having one in four workers be immigrants or refugees as the country continues to outpace past precedent. And finally, Prime Minister Mark Carney says Canada will meet NATO's new 5% spending commitment, claiming the country will up defence spending through its new partnership with the European Union and by upgrading defence-related infrastructure. Questions remain, however, after Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand said the timeline to do so isn't yet entirely clear. Special Guest: Lise Merle.

    What happens when economic chaos hits, but you're financially trapped by your own "responsible" planning? Victor lost his first business in 2008 because he had $2 million in net worth but couldn't access cash when he needed it most. When he rebuilt, he did something different. During the pandemic, when competitors were closing or taking on crushing debt, Victor was buying equipment at liquidation prices, forward-purchasing inventory before price spikes, and hiring top talent from failing businesses. In this episode, we explore how "playing it safe" with traditional financial planning can actually make your business more vulnerable during economic turbulence, and reveal the strategy that helped business owners not just survive but strategically thrive during some of the most uncertain economic times in a generation. Key Quote: "Everyone was playing defense, just trying to survive. Because of our financial position, we could play offense when nobody else could." What You'll Discover: How a salon owner lost two locations despite doing "everything the financial experts told me to do" (and what her competitor did differently to expand instead) The food distributor who used inflation as a competitive advantage while others got crushed by rising costs Why the fitness center owner with $500K in retirement accounts had to watch once-in-a-lifetime opportunities pass by How accessible capital creates strategic opportunism with reduced risk during economic volatility The 7 financial levers that separate businesses that merely survive from those that capture market share during downturns Perfect for: Business owners who want to build long-term wealth without being financially handcuffed when economic opportunities or challenges arise.

    Adam Helman has spent his entire career in emergency management. But after working for the New York State Department of Health during the COVID pandemic, he wanted something new. So in 2023, Adam moved from responding to a public health emergency to responding to the climate emergency, in addition to other hazards utilities have dealt with for decades. Just two years into his role as director of emergency services for the energy services company Avangrid, he's already seen a number of back-to-back emergencies caused by everything from winter storms to gas leaks.This week on With Great Power, Adam shares with Brad some of the ways that Avangrid's emergency response operations are evolving as intense weather and other hazards put more physical and mental stress on first responders. They also discuss why  meteorologists play an increasingly vital role in utility emergency response, and how utilities are integrating new threats, like wildfires in the Northeast, into their planning.With Great Power is a co-production of GridX and Latitude Studios.  Subscribe on Apple, Spotify, or anywhere you get podcasts.

    http://www.attractionchecklist.com -     Let's head to Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure to check out the high flying stunt show known as The Amazing Spider-Man! On this episode of attraction checklist. Attraction audio recorded on July 30, 2023. TRANSCRIPT: Welcome to Attraction Checklist. This episode we're visit Disney California Adventure to experience the, brief, stunt show called The Amazing Spider-Man! Now here's a first in Attraction Checklist history, I cannot find any mention of this show anywhere on the Disneyland website.  I was able to find it in the entertainment listings on the Disneyland App where it is described by saying: Watch out for your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man along the rooftop of the WEB SLINGERS: A Spider-Man Adventure building. You may even get a chance to meet him, up close! Since this is a show, there are no age or height requirements or a thrill level listed for this experience. Before we shove off, here are five fast facts about the Liberty Square Riverboat in Magic Kingdom. 1. The Amazing Spider-Man! debuted with Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure on June 4, 2021.  The show featured a combination of human and robotic performers. 2. The Amazing Spider-Man! Takes on the rooftop of the W.E.B. building that houses the WEB SLINGERS: A Spider-Man Adventure attraction we reviewed back in episode 124. 3.  The centerpiece of the show is a high flying stunt performed by a robot imagineers have dubbed a Stuntronic.  This acrobatic robot is able to perform somersaults and twists as it flies through the air. 4. The robot Stuntronic got an extra year of development thanks to the COVID-19 Pandemic.  During this time, imagineers were able to perfect what the robot could do.  In fact, they made it too perfect where it could land complex moves each time it soared through the air.  Show directors reminded the Imagineers that Spide-Man is far from perfect, so they reprogrammed the robot to be a little more out of control. 5. On November 17, 2024, the stunt performers who performed in the show were informed that the stunt portion of the show was going to be removed.  The Stuntronic Spider-Man still flies through the air several times each day but gone are the rooftop tumbling portions of the show.  The audio recorded for this episode was made before that change happened. Let's head to Avengers Campus to see The Amazing Spider-Man!.  John B. deHaas is along for the fun and after the show audio we'll give you our thoughts on this attraction.  This is a binaural recording so if you have headphones put them on now as we experience The Amazing Spider-Man!

    When the COVID-19 pandemic hit in March 2020, Zoom went from steady growth to hyperscale almost overnight, even generating a backlog of a million tickets. Sarah Riley was a finance leader in the company at the time. She joins CJ to talk about what she learned from the experience and how it impacted her in her current role as CFO of dbt Labs. She also explains the influence of Helmer's Seven Powers framework on her strategic decisions. The discussion covers how Sarah's evolved pricing models, and helped bring product-led and sales-led growth together into a single go-to-market strategy at dbt Labs. She breaks down how she uses big systems thinking to build out a finance org, how to create healthy off-ramps for pilots, and what's actually okay to break when “moving fast and breaking stuff”. She also touches on the current use cases for AI in finance and for turning your team from “doers to reviewers”.—LINKS:Sarah Riley on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarahjriley/dbt Labs: https://www.getdbt.com7 Powers: The Foundations of Business Strategy: https://7powers.com/CJ on X (@cjgustafson222): https://x.com/cjgustafson222Mostly metrics: http://mostlymetrics.comRELATED EPISODES:Wasted Capital and Where to Find It: The CFO's Guide to Spoilage Levers Leakages: —TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) Preview and Intro(02:18) Sponsor – Pulley | Navan | NetSuite(05:53) Being at Zoom at the Start of the Pandemic(10:14) Challenges Caused by the Influx of Customers(14:06) Takeaways From Sarah's Time at Zoom: M&A and Build Versus Buy(15:49) Sponsor – Planful | Tabs | Rippling Spend(19:38) Taking Advantage of Your High Share Price for M&A(20:56) What dbt Labs Does(24:27) Pricing Evolutions at dbt Labs: Freemium and Open-Source(27:51) Seat-Based, Usage-Based, Hybrid, or Outcome-Based Pricing(30:27) Pros and Cons of a Free Component(32:17) Finance and Sales in dbt's Evolving Go-to-Market Strategy(34:09) The Evolution of dbt Labs' ICP(35:09) The Helmer 7 Powers Framework(40:39) Being a Big Systems Thinker While Building a Finance Org(44:16) Moving and Iterating Quickly: Creating Healthy Off-Ramps for Pilots(46:19) What You Can and Can't Break When “Moving Fast and Breaking Stuff”(47:32) The Current State of AI and Use Cases in Finance(51:20) Long-Ass Lightning Round: Boundary Definition(52:08) Advice to Younger Self(52:56) Finance Software Stack(55:20) Craziest Expense Story—SPONSORS:Pulley is the cap table management platform built for CFOs and finance leaders who need reliable, audit-ready data and intuitive workflows, without the hidden fees or unreliable support.

    What happens when a PTA president-turned-techie disrupts the nonprofit auction world? You get Roger Devine, co-founder of SchoolAuction.net, a man on a mission to make fundraising events both profitable and meaningful. In this fast-moving conversation with host Julia Patrick, Roger doesn't just talk events—he redefines them.From live auctions and paddle raises to the fine art of keeping silent auctions out of the ballroom, Roger offers a field-tested guide to modern event strategy. “I want to treat a fundraiser as if it is a fundraiser—I expect to make money,” Roger declares. And he means it.But this isn't just about money—it's about momentum. Events aren't just financial tools; they're culture-building machines. Roger explains how strategic gatherings can cultivate younger donors, lift staff morale, recognize unsung heroes (like teachers and mission staff), and pull entire communities back into connection after years of distraction.He makes a compelling case for fixed-price purchases (think raffles, gift cards, and sign-up parties), lowering barriers to entry, and offering dignity and opportunity to every guest—whether they're dropping $25 or $25,000.Oh, and about those paddle raises? Roger's advice is clear: don't wing it with your local news anchor. A trained benefit auctioneer is essential—not just for showmanship, but because they can drive up to 50% of your total event revenue. Skip this at your peril.Watch and you'll also learn:·        How hybrid and virtual fundraising have evolved (spoiler: most aren't fun anymore)·        How to smartly integrate consignment travel packages (hint: only if Bob Bigshot's coming)·        Why accessibility matters—and how a volunteer ticket swap can make all the differenceWhether you're planning your first gala or overhauling your tenth, this episode will shake up your thinking.

    Today on the podcast is Jack Meier!Jack just finished his freshman year at the University of Oregon, where he chose to redshirt. Despite the limited racing schedule, Jack still ran 3rd place at 2025 U20 XC in Lubbock, Texas this past winter. Jack is a former 6A XC State Champion in Oregon, an NXN qualifier, and 2x NON All-American. He holds PRs of:5k: 14:353k: 8:191500: 3:555k XC: 14:46Jack has had a rollercoaster running career, finding his beginnings during his freshman year of high school during the COVID-19 Pandemic. By his senior year, he pulled off a walk-off win at the XC state meet, and snagged at spot to run at Nike Cross Nationals. However, his high school career did not end in glory. Over the winter going into his senior track season, Jack felt the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. He committed to run at the University of Oregon, the school he had worked for since he was a little kid. Just weeks later, unfortunately, he sustained a season-altering groin injury that sidelined him for weeks. Despite valiant efforts at a comeback, Jack failed to become an Oregon state champion in track, his ultimate goal since finishing 2nd the year prior. Opening up about his journey on his show, Jack shares the valuable insights and lessons that he has learned in his running journey so far, from both the setbacks and the successes. He also shares what it's like transitioning from high school to the collegiate level and what he is looking forward to in the years ahead. Overall, Jack is a chiller and I know that you will enjoy my conversation with him today. Thank you for your support of the show!

    Is There Really Pus in Milk? What does the “milk pus test” tell us about the U.S. milk supply? Dairy cows might normally live for about 20 years, but they are typically slaughtered for hamburger after they're just a few years old when they produce less milk and their profitability drops. But another leading cause of cow culling is mastitis––udder inflammation and infections––which affects 99.7 percent of all dairy operations in the United States.

    With Bend Studio laying off 30% of its staff as it gears up to enter a lengthy pre-production stage, it's clear their next release (should it ever materialize) will be on PlayStation 6. This is just the most recent example in a lengthening string of Sony absolutely botching its first party initiative, deploying teams on projects that make no sense, purchasing studios that have never even released a game, and complicating a service game strategy that -- at least on paper -- made a lot of sense.

    Why do I need wine every night now when I used to be able to control my drinking?
