Penn Cole joins us to discuss Burn of the Everflame, the highly anticipated conclusion to the Kindred's Curse Saga. In this exclusive author interview, we explore the deeper themes shaping the final chapter of Diem and Luther's story, including power, morality, colonization, privilege, shared governance, and the complicated responsibility of changing an unjust system. We also talk with Penn Cole about Luther's identity beyond his relationship with Diem, Henri's humanity and moral complexity, and the generational and religious trauma woven throughout Emarion. This thoughtful conversation offers readers a deeper look at the characters, politics, and ideas behind Burn of the Everflame and Penn Cole's bestselling fantasy romance series.

My mom passed away last week after a very long battle with Alzheimer's and dementia. If you've ever loved someone through this disease, you probably understand how complicated that grief can be. There is sadness and loss, but there can also be relief (and guilt for feeling that relief.) I've been around Alzheimer's for almost 40 years, and I'm still learning that all of those feelings can exist at the same time.My Mom was a doer, a giver, and someone who spent her life serving her family and her community. And in one final act of service, she donated her brain to Alzheimer's research. Knowing that her gift could help families like ours someday is an incredible source of hope.We talked about all of this in the show and we also found ourselves laughing through grief. We discovered that writing an obituary can really make you question your own life accomplishments, discussed what food should be served in our memory, and learned that the preferred vehicle for riding into the great beyond is a Chrysler Pacifica.One of the greatest gifts my mom left us was her detailed “death wishes.” She made her choices known so we didn't have to make them for her. It made me realize that talking about what you want after you're gone doesn't have to be morbid. It can actually be an incredible act of love for the people you leave behind.Thank you for the outpouring of love you've given us since this news broke. We are so lucky to have you here. We love to hear from you! Leave us a message at 323-364-3929 or write the show at podcast@theholdernessfamily.com.

Bray Hansel thought he was done. After a swollen left testicle led to an orchiectomy and a pathology report showing an eight-centimeter pure seminoma contained to the testicle, the 37-year-old financial advisor, husband, and father of three from outside Philadelphia went on surveillance feeling like a survivor — proud of what he'd gotten through and ready to move on. But testicular cancer had other plans.In this episode of It Takes Balls, Bray shares a story that captures just how unpredictable seminoma can be. What started as a borderline stage 2B diagnosis became months of confusing scans: a scan showing no active cancer, a blood test reading 0.00 cancer DNA, and normal tumor markers — all while a lone lymph node in his abdomen quietly kept growing. His care team's honest conclusion was that the cancer was declaring itself, landing Bray in the group of seminoma patients who need further treatment after an orchiectomy.Faced with several paths — BEP chemotherapy, carboplatin plus radiation, or a robotic RPLND — Bray walks through one of the most difficult decisions of his life. He explains why he had concerns about the long-term risks of chemo and radiation, and chose a robotic retroperitoneal lymph node dissection Penn. Of the 15 lymph nodes removed, five contained cancer — more than expected, but still low-volume, with no adjuvant therapy needed and roughly an 80% chance of staying recurrence-free at two years.Beyond the medicine, this is a conversation about perspective, humor, and community. Bray talks about coaching his undefeated soccer team through treatment, making an "RPLND playlist," showing his testicle to his buddies in a parking lot before surgery, and how a whole network — from his wife and friends Brandon, Alex, and Ryan to strangers who never knew they were helping — carried him through. He reflects on the phrase "a problem shared is a problem halved," how cancer deepened his marriage and relationships, and his desire to follow in the footsteps of TCAF's Jordan Jones by being a resource for the next guy.Whether you're navigating a seminoma diagnosis, weighing treatment options after an orchiectomy, or supporting someone through testicular cancer, Bray's story is a moving reminder that survivorship can add depth, connection, and even joy — and that no one has to face it alone.Provide your feedback on the podcast:https://www.testicularcancerawarenessfoundation.org/itbsurveyJoin The Ball Room:https://www.testicularcancerawarenessfoundation.org/theballroomWant to be a guest?

Gavin Gray '28 details his Social Innovators project titled, "Community Connection Consulting."

Ahmad Thomas, CEO of the Silicon Valley Leadership Group, joins Scott McGrew to unpack why seven in ten Americans oppose data centers and why he thinks that opposition is really about AI anxiety. Thomas argues data centers have become a physical stand-in for broader fears over jobs, energy costs, and unchecked technological change, and makes the case for "responsible builds" grounded in transparency around water and power use. The conversation moves through AI's actual labor-market impact (Thomas cites SVLG's own research showing no evidence of a job-loss wave), Silicon Valley's housing affordability trap, and the global AI race with China. Thomas also reflects on his path as SVLG's first Black CEO, his father's journey from the segregated South to a business-school legacy at Penn, and what he sees as the deeper values question underneath the AI moment.

Even when everything is going right, parenting a neurodivergent kid can be emotional. (And yes, I cry this episode... twice.) This week, Penn and I are joined by our friend, child psychologist, and author Dr. Emily King, to help teach us what our neurodivergent kids need to learn and be successful.We talk about why “just try harder” doesn't work, how to know when to push your kid, why girls can fly under the radar, and how small systems like checklists can make a huge difference. We also get emotional talking about our own experiences navigating school accommodations, and Dr. Emily gives some words of encouragement we can use with our own children.Not only does Dr. Emily King help kids with ADHD, autism, learning differences, and giftedness... she also had an incredible voice. So obviously, we couldn't leave without a surprise song parody to summarize the show. (And she even sings it with us! Should we do more of these?) This conversation left us feeling less overwhelmed, and reminded that success doesn't have to look the same for every kid. I hope it does the same for you.We love to hear from you!

Four scary stories unleash serial killers, witchcraft, a werewolf curse, supernatural seduction, and a gigantic killer gummy worm. Celebrate Summerween and Halloween in summer with a complete horror fiction anthology packed with occult rituals, crime horror, murder mysteries, supernatural monsters, body horror, and dark comedy.Two criminal brothers follow a wealthy woman home expecting an easy robbery.

In this episode of the Thrive State Podcast, Dr. V sits down with Jill Schulman, former United States Marine Corps officer, positive psychology researcher trained at the University of Pennsylvania under Martin Seligman, and globally recognized keynote speaker on the science of bravery. Jill shares her remarkable journey from a small town in Minnesota to the Marine Corps, how she discovered bravery as her life's work, and the evidence-based framework she now teaches leaders and organizations around the world. This conversation dives deep into the psychology of fear, why avoidance destroys potential, how action actually creates confidence (not the other way around), and why the next generation needs more discomfort, not less.   In this episode, we cover: The Five to Thrive rapid-fire game show segment Jill's origin story: from small-town Minnesota to the United States Marine Corps How studying positive psychology at Penn led to her focus on bravery The Marine Corps lesson: act when you have 70% of the information, not 100% Why bravery is a trainable skill just like building strength in the gym Discerning between fears you should listen to and fears you should move toward The hidden cost of experiential avoidance (and its link to anxiety and depression) The Navy SEAL confidence course story and why action precedes confidence Discipline vs. motivation and why you should never "press snooze" Marcus Buckingham's "red threads" and how to follow what lights you up How fear shows up in business: difficult conversations and safe goal-setting Why young people need to feel fear more, not less (the biosphere palm tree analogy) What leaders must do: set high expectations and support people to rise Jill is offering a free audiobook to listeners. Just send her a message on LinkedIn or Instagram and her team will send you the link. You can also learn more about her keynote speaking and work at jillschulman.com.

Rick Santos is the new head football coach at the University of Pennsylvania. He takes over the Quakers after an impressive run as the head coach at his alma mater, the University of New Hampshire, where he led the Wildcats to three NCAA FCS Playoff berths in five seasons. As a player, Santos was an elite quarterback. He was a three-time All-American and in 2006 won the Walter Payton Award as the best offensive player in all of FCS football. In Episode #305 of "1-on-1 with Matt Leon," Matt welcomes Santos in studio to talk about his career. They discuss his decision to come to Penn, talk about what fans should expect from the Quakers on his watch, look back at his playing days - including what it was like to have Chip Kelly as an offensive coordinator - and much, much more. "1-on-1 with Matt Leon” is a KYW Newsradio original podcast. You can follow the show on X @1on1pod and you can follow Matt @Mattleon1060.

Recently, Penn and I asked you to tell us about your weirdest summer jobs. From working in customer service for the WOW Chips debacle to a stripping gorilla, you really showed up for this episode! Your calls and messages had us laughing, cringing, and repeatedly asking one very important question: Where were the child labor laws?! (I guess it was the 90s…)Every weird job teaches you a lesson along the way. We not only heard from you, we call Kim's old roommate, and even our producers Sam and Ann Marie weigh in. We discuss why it's so much harder for teens to get that first job today, how I became a "crossbody bag with legs”, and we pitch our dream challenges if we ever got a weird job as producers for The Amazing Race. (Spoiler: The college move-in day challenge where you cram 800 things into half a dorm room and then your child leaves you forever. FUN!)This episode was SO much fun because of all of you. Thank you to everyone who called, wrote, commented, and shared your questionable employment history with us. Please keep it coming because next we want to hear what unhinged things you did in the 80s/90s that would never fly today. (We did WHAT?!) You truly make this show better and much, much weirder. We love to hear from you! Leave us a message at 323-364-3929 or write the show at podcast@theholdernessfamily.com.

Will, Adam and Mike watched their third film of Asshole August, Penn & Teller Get Killed (1989). Often regarded as one of the worst movies ever made, this movie is pretty good. Of course some people hate it and they yelled at me online but we can't listen to them, can we? No we must never listen to the listeners.

Daily Boost Podcast Being Bored Is the Goal August 16, 2026 | Episode 5521 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description I got back from Las Vegas with a great time, a Penn & Teller show, and my usual parting gift — COVID. So today I'm bored. And I mean that in the best possible way. Boredom has a bad reputation. We treat it like a problem to fix, so we fill every gap with noise, scrolling, and one more task. But your best ideas don't show up when you're pushing. They show up when you finally stop. I'll show you why boredom is the goal, what your brain does when you leave it alone, and how to protect that space. Featured Story People ask how I come up with so many ideas. I've made 5,500 podcasts, thousands of radio shows, interviews, commercials, even a couple of films. The answer sounds ridiculous: I don't think about it. I get on my motorcycle. About ten minutes in, the wind starts doing its work and the ideas come so fast I need a recorder. The same thing happens in the shower, while driving, or while sitting at the beach doing nothing at all. Before I go, I'll hand my brain one thing to chew on. Then I walk away and let it run. A few hours later, I download. Important Points Every minute of your week already belongs to you. You can loan them out and pull every one of them back. Focus is powerful, but it uses only a small part of your brain. Step back and the whole thing goes to work for you. Hand your brain a question before you do nothing at all. Check back a few hours later and see what it built. Memorable Quotes Boredom isn't the opposite of productivity. It's the setup for it. When you slow down, things begin to change. 100% of your available minutes this week are yours. Nobody can really take them away from you. I want you to have freedom in every aspect of your life. I fight for it myself, and I'll fight for you until I die. Scott's Three-Step Approach Take massive control of your calendar first, and push back on every demand that isn't actually yours to carry. Then hold that open space empty, even when it feels wrong to leave a few good hours just sitting there unused. Now hand your brain one single question, walk away, and write down every idea that shows up a few hours later.

Can changing what you eat treat depression, anxiety, and even psychosis more effectively than medication alone? In this episode of Food Junkies, Dr. Vera Tarman sits down with Dr. Matt Bernstein, MD, psychiatrist and CEO of Accord, to unpack the emerging field of metabolic psychiatry — and what it means for people recovering from food addiction. Dr. Bernstein trained at Columbia, Penn, and the MGH-McLean Psychiatry Program before shifting from traditional hospital-based psychiatric care toward lifestyle-based interventions: nutrition, sleep, light, and movement. He now serves on the advisory board of Metabolic Mind and helped organize the first public conference on metabolic psychiatry in 2023. In this conversation, Dr. Bernstein and Dr. Tarman explore how brain energy metabolism — not just neurotransmitters — may be a root driver of conditions like depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and Alzheimer's, and why ketogenic and low-carbohydrate approaches are showing early but compelling results for food cravings, food noise, and psychiatric symptom relief. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why Dr. Bernstein moved away from conventional psychiatric medication models toward metabolic approaches How brain insulin resistance can contribute to depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia The role of mitochondria, oxidative stress, and the gut-brain axis in mental illness How ketones act as an alternative brain fuel — and why that matters for insulin-resistant neurons The connection between brain insulin resistance and Alzheimer's risk decades before symptoms appear How ketogenic and low-carb diets naturally reduce food cravings and "food noise" for people with food addiction What a day in the Accord immersive metabolic psychiatry program actually looks like Why combining diet, exercise, circadian rhythm alignment, and mind-body practices produces faster results than any single intervention alone How GLP-1 medications compare to ketogenic diets for reducing food noise and cravings — and where each may fall short The risks of rapid or unsupported psychiatric medication tapering, and why "hyperbolic tapering" matters What to watch for (and troubleshoot) if a ketogenic diet isn't producing results after several weeks Guest Dr. Matt Bernstein, MD is a psychiatrist and CEO of Accord, an immersive metabolic psychiatry program near Boston. He is a leading voice in metabolic psychiatry, sits on the advisory board of Metabolic Mind, and helped organize the first public conference dedicated to the field in 2023.

How can higher education scale its reach without sacrificing academic rigor or student outcomes? In this episode of An Educated Guest, host Todd Zipper sits down with Dr. Vijay Kumar, Dean of Penn Engineering at the University of Pennsylvania, to discuss the changing landscape of engineering, robotics, and academic leadership. Drawing on nearly 40 years of experience as a researcher and administrator, Dean Kumar shares his vision for expanding educational access and explains why measuring higher education excellence through selectivity alone misses the broader purpose of institutional impact.The conversation dives deep into Penn's pioneering efforts in modern learning, including expanding their online graduate programs to reach thousands of non-traditional learners worldwide. Dean Kumar unpacks Penn's decision to launch the Ivy League's first undergraduate degree in Artificial Intelligence—emphasizing "Intelligence Augmentation" and systems engineering over simple software generation. He also shares how AI is reshaping classroom assessment, driving faculty toward Socratic oral exams, team-based problem solving, and higher-order critical thinking.Finally, the discussion explores the power of cross-disciplinary collaboration and university commercialization. From developing an AI-driven mRNA Biofoundry alongside Penn Medicine to building an entrepreneurial ecosystem that takes robotics startups from university labs to the Nasdaq, Dean Kumar offers a hopeful, forward-looking playbook for the future of higher education. Tune in for a masterclass on technology, pedagogy, and institutional leadership.

In this episode of Catching Up, Nate McClennen and Mason Pashia tackle three of the most urgent tensions in modern education. They explore a landmark Penn study revealing that while AI can streamline lesson planning, it may inadvertently erode student intrinsic motivation and engagement. The hosts also dive into the "truancy triangle"—a framework for understanding chronic absenteeism that balances policy and wraparound support with the often-overlooked necessity of designing learning experiences that students genuinely find relevant and worth attending. The conversation extends to the broader future of work, contrasting the fears of an "AI job apocalypse" with the reality of an impending demographic job cliff in sectors like healthcare, skilled trades, and education. Balancing these heavy topics, the episode highlights the power of real-world learning, featuring New York City's Summer Youth Employment Program—which leverages World Cup excitement to connect students to paid, hands-on projects—and a "good guy" neighborhood microgrant initiative designed to strengthen community ties. Join Nate and Mason for an honest, layered conversation on how school leaders can cut through the noise to design schools that foster belonging and meaningful outcomes.

Recently, a dear friend asked me: "Do you and your husband actually get along all the time? Tell me the truth." So this week on Laugh Lines, we are pulling back the curtain on what it's actually like to be married, raise kids, AND work together every single day. We talk about the things we'll probably never agree on, why I have decision fatigue, and how sometimes it's okay to go to bed angry.We also get an update on Penn's Alzheimer's prevention journey. He recently overdid it at the gym and developed rhabdomyolysis, but what doctors learn from his bloodwork could have important implications for how new Alzheimer's blood tests are interpreted. Plus, we hear from you about the Gen X movies that hit VERY differently when you watch them with your kids. Clueless, Spaceballs, and Stand By Me. (Listen, it was a different time!)Finally, one thing we don't always agree on is what videos we make. So we also ask our Laugh Liners to let us know: Should we publish Penn's "Peeing In The Pool" parody? Buckle up for the world premiere right here on Laugh Lines. The decision is up to you!

She and Penn reunite for the first time since filming the season finale of Gossip Girl in 2012. Taylor shares what it was like being the youngest actor on set, her impressions of working with Penn, and why it was important for her to give her all to pursuing a career in music. Taylor lets us in on her creative muses, how she's drawn inspiration from the darkest moments of her life, and how she's learned to pick herself up after facing heartbreaking losses.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Why do smart people believe things that aren't true? Jason Alexander and Peter Tilden sit down with legendary magician, skeptic, and author Penn Jillette for a fascinating conversation about why we're so easily manipulated—and why it's happening more than ever. Penn explains how tribalism often beats truth, why persuasion is more powerful than knowledge, how social media algorithms exploit our need to belong, and why curiosity is disappearing. They explore conspiracy theories, misinformation, Wikipedia, loneliness, AI, clickbait, and the surprising role boredom plays in independent thinking. Along the way, the conversation takes hilarious detours into Joe Rogan, clown college, Siegfried & Roy, magic, wife-swapping jokes, and why Penn believes the greatest illusion isn't on stage—it's the stories we tell ourselves.

Have you ever replayed a conversation in your head for three days because someone might have been upset with you? Friend... same. This week on Laugh Lines, Penn and I sit down with psychiatrist and ADHD expert Dr. Sasha Hamdani to talk about something that completely changed the way we understand ourselves: Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD).If you've ever been called "too sensitive," taken criticism way too personally, or apologized a hundred times a day, this conversation might explain why. Dr. Hamdani shares the science behind why so many people with ADHD experience emotions so intensely, why hormonal changes like perimenopause can make it even harder, and what we can actually do about it.We also talk about the surprising upside of feeling things deeply, because the same brain that feels rejection so intensely also experiences joy, awe, empathy, and connection in a really beautiful way. (And somehow we end up talking about WikiFeet. Because of course we do.)Whether you have ADHD or you've simply spent your life feeling "too sensitive," this conversation is for you. We love to hear from you! Leave us a message at 323-364-3929 or write the show at podcast@theholdernessfamily.com. (Also send us your weird summer jobs!)

Penn gets a nice mention from The Flying Karamazov Brothers and continues to discover the unexpected joys of performing seated on a stool, Matt performs magic for different audiences in Nashville, the life and legacy of Paul Reubens, unexpected concert tour lineups, and lots more.

Penn and I have joked about gentle parenting on this podcast more than once. As Gen X parents, it always sounded a little... soft. So when parenting coach Jon Fogel joined us, we figured we'd have a lively debate. Instead, about halfway through the conversation, we looked at each other and thought, "Wait... have we been gentle parenting this whole time?" Also, what is gentle parenting? (Apologies in advance for the many references to Penn getting hit in the balls by a pool noodle.)Jon helped us untangle why so much of what gets labeled "gentle parenting" online isn't really gentle parenting at all, and why kids actually learn better through connection than fear. We even put Jon through a round of our "Hill You'll Die On" game to find out where he stands on everything from pajamas at school and homework to smartphones and curfews.Whether you're raising toddlers, teenagers, or just trying to recover from how you were parented yourself, this conversation might make you rethink a few things.
