Lottie and Trev talked about antinatalism, pronatalism and reproductive justice, and overlaps with veganism and environmentalism. We argued that reproductive choice is paramount, through access to birth control and abortion, education and careers for girls and women and other measures to improve quality of life globally. We questioned the impact of depopulation as a solution to environmental crises and reducing human harm on other species. In any case, this is no replacement for fighting for changes here and now, like moving towards a global vegan food system. Content warning: brief mention of suicide from 28:30-29:30.

een nieuwe hybride tulipensoort - te creëren.En: His eyes followed the colors of the tulips, pondering which rare bulbs he would buy today to create his dream—a new hybrid tulip variety.Nl: Aan zijn zijde stond Bram.En: By his side stood Bram.Nl: Bram was dol op vogels en geloofde dat ze geluk brachten.En: Bram loved birds and believed they brought luck.Nl: Nu volgde hij de duif met een blik van vreugde en interesse.En: Now he watched the pigeon with a look of joy and interest.Nl: Sanne, de vlotte bloemiste, probeerde haar stal op orde te houden terwijl de duif een nieuwe duikvlucht inzette recht naar een bak met tulpenbollen.En: Sanne, the brisk florist, tried to keep her stall in order while the pigeon made another dive straight towards a box of tulip bulbs.Nl: "Die brutale duif neemt alles mee," zuchtte ze en wierp Maarten een hoofdschuddende blik toe.En: "That cheeky pigeon takes everything," she sighed and threw Maarten a head-shaking look.Nl: “Hij heeft al eerder problemen veroorzaakt.En: "He's caused trouble before."Nl: ”Maarten, vastberaden om zijn bollen heelhuids mee naar huis te nemen, zette allerlei tactieken in.En: Determined to take his bulbs home intact, Maarten employed all sorts of tactics.Nl: Hij probeerde de bollen goed te verbergen, maar de duif leek een zesde zintuig te hebben.En: He tried to hide the bulbs well, but the pigeon seemed to have a sixth sense.Nl: Zelfs Bram's idee om de duif met stukjes brood af te leiden, leek niet te werken.En: Even Bram's idea of distracting the pigeon with bits of bread didn't seem to work.Nl: Zijn gelukbrengende vogels waren duidelijk van een ander soort.En: His lucky birds were clearly of a different kind.Nl: Toen gebeurde het: de duif slaagde erin de meest kostbare bol van Maarten te grijpen.En: Then it happened: the pigeon managed to grab Maarten's most precious bulb.Nl: In een fractie van seconden zag hij zijn droom de lucht in gaan.En: In a fraction of a second, he saw his dream take to the skies.Nl: In een komisch tafereel rende Maarten, zijn armen zwaaiend door de menigte, achter de duif aan.En: In a comical scene, Maarten, arms waving through the crowd, ran after the pigeon.Nl: Sanne kon het niet helpen, ze lachte terwijl ze zag hoe Maarten over bloembakken en tussen toeristen door strompelde.En: Sanne couldn't help but laugh as she watched Maarten stumble over flower boxes and through tourists.Nl: Bram, genietend van de chaos, riep "Laat me helpen, Maarten!En: Bram, enjoying the chaos, shouted, "Let me help, Maarten!"Nl: " en samen met een beetje teamwork en veel hilariteit, lukte het ze de duif te slim af te zijn.En: and with a bit of teamwork and a lot of hilarity, they managed to outsmart the pigeon.Nl: Ze wisten de bol veilig te stellen na een wonderlijke, chaotische race.En: They succeeded in safely retrieving the bulb after a remarkable, chaotic race.Nl: Met de bol weer stevig in zijn handen, lachte Maarten opgelucht.En: With the bulb firmly back in his hands, Maarten laughed in relief.Nl: "Ik zie de charme van je vogels," zei hij, knipogend naar Bram.En: "I see the charm of your birds," he said, winking at Bram.Nl: Sanne, die nog steeds grinnikte, bood Maarten en Bram een mooi bloemstuk als troostprijs aan.En: Sanne, still chuckling, offered Maarten and Bram a beautiful flower arrangement as a consolation prize.Nl: "Voor de moeite en het vermaak," glimlachte ze.En: "For the effort and the entertainment," she smiled.Nl: De dag eindigde in de zon, tussen tulpen en lachen.En: The day ended in the sun, among tulips and laughter.Nl: Maarten leerde dat soms, de mooiste herinneringen worden gevormd uit onverwachte chaos.En: Maarten learned that sometimes the best memories are forged from unexpected chaos.Nl: En terwijl hij naast zijn vrienden stond, besefte hij dat een beetje vogelgeluk misschien toch niet zo slecht was.En: And as he stood next to his friends, he realized that a little bird luck might not be so bad after all.

Greg Brown joins the show! Will the Pirates play tonight? The smoke in the air in Cleveland is casting doubt over whether tonight's game will be played. Do the Pirates need another starter? Greg says every team could use another arm and the Pirates would be one of those teams open to it. He says the Keller mystery is still one that needs to be solved. The Pitt upset of Clemson is making its rounds on Twitter. Dorin discusses the game and the speech he gave before it. What would have happened if the NCAA had a playoff format in the latter part of the 2000s. Brownie compared Esmerlyn Valdez to Aramis Ramirez. The guys would absolutely take Ramirez's career for Valdez. Fan Cash Contest, Ron in the car says that Mitch Keller will have a rebound second half of the season and be the Pirates' best pitcher. Crowley is trying to quit nicotine and is chewing gum, which Dorin can hear. The current air quality in Cleveland is not looking good. Will we see the Pirates play the Guardians tonight or does Canada have other ideas? Breaking News: The Pidgeon Lady from Home Alone 2 passes away.
Tawinee's Actual factuals- Hero Pigeon, Toy Story and Voices by STAR 102.5/Des Moines
Lomes of Pigeon Pit, joins Pepe Bandit for an unguarded conversation that starts with songwriting as alchemy — puking out the fucked-up parts of the world and finding gold in the filth — and follows it into personal authority forged through hardship, acid trips, and a philosophy of spiritual anarchism built on empathy. They discuss the work of transmuting hope and gratitude into action, the magic of DIY shows and what gets lost and gained when a band outgrows the basements it started in. The conversation also turns toward the strange weight of being someone strangers cry in front of, and what it means to carry that without claiming credit for someone else's survival. Pepe shares why this one is personal for him — his own kid found Lomes's music during the years he was locked up, long before the two of them ever met.

Your company is only as strong as the people running the systems. And average talent will never build an elite empire. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down the talent arbitrage and how founders can find true operators in a market full of polished resumes and rehearsed interview answers. Let's be real… A perfect resume does not guarantee grit. A college degree does not guarantee resourcefulness. Corporate experience does not always mean ownership. And a smooth interview does not mean someone can solve real problems under pressure. In this episode, you'll learn: Why traditional hiring filters can lead to average teams How to identify grit, ownership, and problem-solving ability Why testing candidates under pressure reveals true talent How to retain elite operators by giving them autonomy and performance-based upside The truth is simple: You cannot build a massive vision with order-takers. You need people who think. Solve. Adapt. Move fast. And take ownership without needing constant supervision. High-level founders do not just hire for polish. They hire for capacity. They test for chaos. They look for resourcefulness. They pay for performance. And when they find eagles… They give them the target and get out of the way. Because elite talent does not want to be micromanaged. It wants to win. Change the filter. Test the grit. Hire the elite. And keep leveling up. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

Pigeons: The Heroic Communicators of Modern Warfare Guest: Stephen Moss Book Title: Ten Birds That Changed the World The humble pigeon is celebrated for its extraordinary homing skills, which Moss describes as making it the "ultimate mailman." While legends like the Rothschilds using pigeons to profit from the Battle of Waterloo are mostly myth, the bird's real-world contributions to communication during the World Wars were pivotal. During D-Day, radio silence was mandatory, and pigeons were released from Normandy beaches to carry news of successful landings back to Britain. Moss highlights Cher Ami, a pigeon that saved a New York battalion from "friendly fire" despite being severely wounded. These birds were so effective that the British military even deployed a unit to hunt peregrine falcons to protect pigeon messengers. Moss notes the paradox of the pigeon: often dismissed as urban pests, they were actually reliable, "unturnable" assets that saved the democratic world through their instinctual drive to return home.

Cécile Arnould, spécialiste du comportement des oiseaux lui répond. - équipe : Stéphanie Texier, Marjorie Devoucoux Vous aimez ce podcast ?

Broadcast on KSQD, Santa Cruz on 6-18-2026:>/p> Dr. Dawn opens with Virginia Tech research showing yellow fever mosquitoes can learn to associate DEET with blood meals after just four pairings, with over 60% of trained mosquitoes lunging at DEET alone. She emphasizes using DEET at sufficient concentration since under-application could teach mosquitoes a "life lesson" that compromises one of our best protections against malaria, dengue, and Zika. A controversial new theory from the University of Bonn proposes that iron-rich macrophages in the pigeon liver serve as the long-elusive magnetic compass. Pigeons given drugs that wiped out their liver macrophages became completely disoriented when released on a cloudy day, though critics argue the trace iron is too weakly magnetic and birds may have been agitated by the drug itself. A COVID-era crowd-movement study found that in 32 of 33 trials, people preferred to turn counterclockwise regardless of handedness or culture (Spain and Japan). Animals show no such bias, suggesting a uniquely human biochemical asymmetry—Dr. Dawn speculates this may relate to left-hemisphere language centers near the inner ear, and notes racetracks worldwide run counterclockwise. A caller in Ben Lomond reports mouth irritation from FYGG nanohydroxyapatite toothpaste. Dr. Dawn suspects bystander ingredients (flavorings, paste-consistency agents) rather than the hydroxyapatite itself—which acts as remineralizing "grout" filling tiny tooth cracks—and recommends switching to a different fluoride-free brand like Tom's after the caller confirmed reaction on rechallenge. The same caller asks about turmeric liver toxicity. Dr. Dawn explains that reputable companies following good manufacturing practices stay within 5-10% accuracy on dosing, and her recommended dose (one teaspoon turmeric, one-eighth teaspoon black pepper, around 5g daily) stays far below toxic levels. Curcumin inhibits NF-kappa-B, the master switch for inflammatory cascades. An emailer in Bonny Doon asks about treating chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. Dr. Dawn recommends electrical acupuncture which works more than half the time, combined with methylated B12 (2,000 micrograms daily), methylated folate (1,000 micrograms twice daily), alpha lipoic acid (300mg twice daily, also effective for tinnitus), and acetyl-L-carnitine (1,500mg daily). She also recommends photomodulation devices using 635nm red light with near-infrared. A caller raises magnetic field effects on humans. Dr. Dawn discusses human adaptability, referencing Chernobyl black moths that increased melanin epigenetically and ongoing efforts to upregulate radiation-resistance genes via mRNA for future space travel. The conversation turns to evolution of unique human hair patterns, with Dr. Dawn proposing sexual selection (armpit/pubic hair for pheromones) and neoteny (women's facial smoothness resembling infants triggering protective responses) as explanations. Dr. Dawn responds to a crowdsourced question about why Santa Cruz "makes people weird," attributing it to the area's low penalties for aberrant behavior and high tolerance for nonconformity. She explains how mirroring within small subgroups creates internal conformity even amid outward "weirdness," with sixties counterculture as a foundational influence. For another crowdsourced question on vitamins for women in their mid-twenties, Dr. Dawn recommends prenatal vitamins because they include extra iron for menstruating women plus adequate B vitamins. For those eating standard American diets or in dorms, she suggests B100 complex, 500mg calcium, and vitamin C.
Susie talks about Red Panda, the half-time phenom, who rides a 7ft tall unicycle whilst throwing plates with her feet onto her head. It's a whole thing. We find out about an astronaut who almost drowned on a "routine" spacewalk, which has Sarah reeling. We find out how Sarah almost choked to death, but more importantly, Susie found out she does NOT know the international sign for choking. We hear how WiFi can identify people in the room, and it's creepy af. Susie's sister questions Sarah's advice about saying, "Hey, bear!" to scare off bears. We learn why American horses are obese. And Sarah cries about Temple Grandin.

Rock Pigeons are one of the most common urban birds. But why do we never see baby pigeons? Some baby birds — like down-covered ducks, geese, and chickens — leave their nest shortly after hatching and do a lot of growing up while following their parents around. Others, like pigeons, depend on their parents to feed and protect them, well into their youth. They stay in the nest — under bridges and awnings, for instance — until they're nearly as big as the adult birds.

Despite their modern reputation, pigeons were once beloved by royalty. Akbar the Great, ruler of the Mughal Empire in the 16th Century, kept over 20,000 pigeons. Owning pigeons in parts of Europe was a privilege restricted to the nobility. Pigeon ownership became a flashpoint during the French Revolution, when commoners finally gained the right to raise pigeons. Learn more in Rosemary Mosco's book, A Pocket Guide to Pigeon Watching.

Coming up, Danish footballer Christian Eriksen is reportedly "doing well" after collapsing for a second time during an international match. Did a tiny device called an implantable cardioverter defibrillator save his life? Plus, whether magnetic immune cells in the liver can drive a pigeon's homing instincts; how astronauts repaired air leaks on the International Space Station; and we ask whether maths can help us decide what to have for dinner.
