In this Straight White American Jesus Sunday interview, Annika Brockschmidt speaks with journalist and researcher Madeleine Peltz about her years-long reporting on the conservative youth ecosystem and the gendered strategies shaping the modern far right. Peltz, formerly of Media Matters, has spent thousands of hours documenting right-wing media and events like Turning Point USA's Women's Leadership Summit—an increasingly influential gathering that blends lifestyle branding, faith language, and political recruitment. Together, they explore how the “pink pill” aesthetic fuses pop culture, wellness, and evangelical-coded messaging to draw in Gen Z women, reframing conservative politics through themes of empowerment, marriage, and “biblical womanhood.” The conversation examines the contradictions at the heart of this movement: conferences that market “women's leadership” while promoting submission, purity culture, and debates over women's political participation. Peltz describes the summit as both a recruitment pipeline and a social network, where influencers, field organizers, and Turning Point USA infrastructure work in tandem to shape ideology and identity. From MAHA wellness politics to tradwife influencers and viral culture-war media figures, the episode traces the fracturing and evolution of Gen Z conservatism—and asks what it means when aesthetics, faith, and political strategy become indistinguishable.

Is that really true?→ Tupac Shakur has been dead for 30 years – or HAS he, etc etc – but if you think that will stop him returning to his acting career for a new console game, you're wrong…→ Say You, Say Me… just don't Say It In My Voice Without Permission. Why has Lionel Richie been filing trademarks for some of his most famous sung phrases?→ UK indie streaming service Cantilever has raised £250,000 of funding from a group of independent labels. Can it carve out a niche for itself against giants like Spotify though?→ Ariana Grande is one of the ‘good eggs' of the pop world, and this week brought more evidence of that: her new charitable foundation, and beef with the White House…→ The Happy Mondays want to sell you a giant pill.

The dice are rolling, the dad jokes are flying, and another unforgettable episode of Wise_N_Nerdy is underway! Joe and Charles kick things off with the Question of the Week: "On a scale of 1-10, how strict are/were your parents?" The conversation quickly turns into a nostalgic journey through childhood as both hosts reflect on the parenting styles that shaped them, sharing humorous stories and surprising insights about growing up. As always, the mighty dice determine the flow of the show, and the first stop is the "How Do I...?" segment. Rather than tackling a specific question, Charles and Joe take a moment to discuss the future of the segment itself, brainstorming ideas and inviting listeners to submit their own "How Do I...?" questions for future episodes. It's a great opportunity for the Wise_N_Nerdy community to help shape upcoming conversations. The dice then decree that it's time for everyone's favorite groan-worthy tradition: Bad Dad Jokes. Pulled straight from the Wise_N_Nerdy Discord community, the jokes are every bit as terrible as listeners have come to expect—and that's exactly what makes them so wonderful. Next comes the Parliament of Papas, where the hosts discuss a story of delightfully petty revenge. When one frustrated individual decided to park behind a troublesome neighbor before heading out of town for the weekend, the results were equal parts hilarious and vindicating. Charles and Joe dive into the ethics, humor, and unintended consequences of taking the petty road. The dice continue their quest and land on "What Are You Nerding Out About?" Joe shares his enthusiasm for A Parade of Horribles, highlighting not only the story itself but also the incredible production quality of the audiobook. Meanwhile, Charles is excitedly nerding out about his newest creative venture, The Little Brown Pill, a podcast that explores coffee culture, comedy, and conversation in a uniquely entertaining way. To close out the episode, it's time for "Daddy, Tell Me A Story." Charles and Joe swap memorable tales from convention panels where things didn't quite go according to plan. From audiences turning against them to unexpected crowd reactions, these stories showcase the unpredictable and often hilarious nature of live events. Whether you're here for fatherhood, fandom, community interaction, nerdy passions, or simply a few good laughs, this episode has something for everyone.

In this solo episode, Lisa takes a critical look at two recent studies examining the return of fertility after stopping hormonal contraception, one published in 2020 and one published in the BMJ in 2023. Rather than accepting their conclusions at face value, Lisa walks through the methodology of each study and identifies significant design flaws that call their findings into question. Lisa discusses the difference between time-to-pregnancy studies and discontinuation studies that track cycle characteristics, and makes the case for more robust, inclusive research designs that could provide clearer answers for women and the practitioners supporting them.

Welcome to the latest Midlife Minute. Today, I'm taking a closer look at oral contraceptive use in perimenopause and menopause, exploring how oral contraceptives work, how they suppress or blunt perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms, alter hormone signaling and testing, what women may experience when they stop taking them, and why the gut microbiome is an essential part of the conversation. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: How oral contraceptives suppress certain key signaling hormones, making it difficult to assess women's menopausal status accurately What women may experience when transitioning off oral contraceptives How long-term oral contraceptive use can alter gut microbial function and inflammatory pathways The association between long-term oral contraceptive use and nutrient depletion Why the standard reproductive hormone markers used to assess menopause (especially FSH/LH) are unreliable while on the pill How the microbiome changes that occur as women age may compound the effects of previous oral contraceptive use Helpful dietary, microbiome, and lifestyle strategies to support women navigating the post-pill transition Connect with Cynthia Thurlow   Follow on X, Instagram & LinkedIn Check out Cynthia's website.

It's Wednesday, June 10th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Hindu mob injured 25 Christians during worship service A Hindu mob attacked a Christian worship service in central India last week. The mob injured at least 25 people, including the pastor's pregnant wife. Such attacks are becoming more common in the country's state of Chhattisgarh.  The state's government passed a law criminalizing conversion in March. It is India's second most oppressive state for Christians. Open Doors ranks the whole country as the 12th most oppressive in the world for Christians.    7.8-magnitude earthquake struck Philippines A 7.8-magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of the southern part of the Philippines on Monday. The quake killed at least 37 people, injured nearly 500, and displaced over 32,000. Christians in the area are jumping into action. International Christian Concern reports, “Local churches have opened their doors and converted their sanctuaries into vital emergency evacuation centers, providing safe shelter, immediate access to drinking water, and essential family food packs to thousands of displaced and traumatized residents.”   In Matthew 5:7, Jesus said, “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.” Spanish Anglican church joins Bible-believing Anglican denomination In Spain, the Evangelical Anglican Community of Valencia joined the Global Anglican Communion last week. It's the first church in the country to do so. The Global Anglican Communion is a movement of conservative Anglicans led by churches in the Global South. The group rejects the leadership of the Church of England which has shown support for sexually perverted lifestyles. Julian Milson is the pastor of the church in Valencia. He told Evangelical Focus, “We believe that the Church is called to submit to the authority of Scripture above any cultural pressure.” FDA launched safety study of Abortion Kill Pill In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration launched a safety study of the Abortion Kill Pill, reports The Wall Street Journal.  This comes a year after the Trump administration promised to review the dangers of the abortion drug Mifepristone. The drug is not only part of ending the lives of unborn babies, it also poses health risks to the mothers who take it.  Republican Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri introduced legislation in March to ban the Abortion Kill Pill. Listen to his comments. HAWLEY: “It is time for Congress to give the victims, the survivors -- many of whom are here today -- the right to recover against this company that has inflicted harm on them solely for the purpose of making profits. I'm introducing legislation today that will do just that. And I'm delighted to have with me here today great advocates for women's health and for life.” FBI fired analysts who targeted Catholics under President Biden         MS Now reports that the FBI fired several intelligence analysts who targeted Catholics under the Biden administration. The analysts were involved in a 2023 memo which revealed how the FBI was surveilling Catholics as potential domestic threats.  A recent report from the Justice Department stated, “The Biden Administration's policies regularly clashed with a Christian worldview and burdened traditional religious practices.” Amazon dethroned Walmart Amazon has dethroned Walmart as the largest corporation in the U.S. by revenue. That's according to the Fortune 500 rankings for 2026. Walmart came in second, ending its 13-year reign at the number one spot. Other top 10 companies include UnitedHealth Group, Apple, Alphabet, CVS Health, and Exxon Mobil.  Also, Texas dethroned California as the state with the most Fortune 500 companies this year.  Curaçao soccer player shared Christian testimony And finally, soccer teams from around the world are about to compete for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The international men's soccer championship is being hosted across the United States, Mexico, and Canada this year. One of teams hails from Curaçao, an island county in the Caribbean. Players from the national team participated in a Christian worship event ahead of the competition.  The team's striker, Kenji Gorré, shared his testimony at the event. Listen. GORRE: “I received Him as my Savior, because I knew that my good works couldn't do enough. I thought that if you're a good person, you'll make it to Heaven. I thought if you're a good person, God will forgive me. He's a loving God. But the love of God goes deeper. “And that's when I heard the true Gospel of Jesus dying for my sins on the cross, bleeding for me, washing me, cleaning me. And He cleaned me from the inside out. But I thank Jesus every single day. And from that day I've never stopped seeking Him.” Gorré also said, “Tonight we don't gather as athletes seeking worldly success, but as children of God who recognize that everything we have belongs to Him.” 1 John 2:15 and 17 says, “Do not love the world or the things in the world. … The world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, June 10th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. The landscape of these industries is one of constant evolution, characterized by scientific advancements, strategic mergers, and regulatory maneuvers that shape the future of healthcare. In a significant scientific breakthrough, Merck & Co. and Gilead Sciences have made strides in HIV treatment with the development of a weekly pill. This innovative regimen combines Merck's islatravir with Gilead's lenacapavir, showing promise in two phase 3 trials. If approved, this long-acting oral therapy could revolutionize HIV care by offering a more convenient dosing schedule, potentially improving patient adherence and outcomes substantially. This novel regimen signifies progress towards simplifying HIV treatments with once-weekly dosing. Meanwhile, in the oncology sector, Gilead's Trodelvy faced challenges when combined with Merck's Keytruda as a first-line treatment for PD-L1-high non-small cell lung cancer. The phase 3 EVOKE-03 trial was terminated, shifting attention to competitors like AstraZeneca and Daiichi Sankyo, who continue to advance their own therapies in this area. In a strategic move to bolster its position in lung cancer treatment, GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) is acquiring Nuvalent for $10.6 billion, aiming to secure near-approval cancer therapies capable of challenging market leaders like Roche and Pfizer. This acquisition underscores the focus on targeted cancer therapies that increase treatment efficacy by honing in on specific genetic markers. Nuvalent's innovative pipeline of small molecule inhibitors targets drug resistance and mutations in cancer treatment—a strategic addition to GSK's portfolio aimed at enhancing its position amidst rapid advancements and intense competition in oncology. In diabetes and obesity management, Eli Lilly is advancing with its new oral GLP-1 receptor agonist, Foundayo (orforglipron), which has shown competitive efficacy over oral semaglutide. Analysts see Lilly's progress as strengthening its leadership in the growing obesity drug market. Similarly, AstraZeneca is making progress with its own GLP-1 candidate, elecoglipron, as phase 2 data sets the stage for pivotal studies. Promising clinical trial data from Eli Lilly's retatrutide for obesity-related conditions and AstraZeneca's elecoglipron suggest a strengthening pipeline for GLP-1 receptor agonists known for their dual effects on weight management and glycemic control. On the diagnostics front, Roche reaffirms its €600 million investment in Germany amid industry retrenchments by companies like Eli Lilly and Boehringer Ingelheim. However, Roche remains cautious about future risks due to shifting economic conditions. The financial dynamics within biotech are also noteworthy. Parabilis Medicines is planning a potentially record-setting IPO following Kailera Therapeutics' successful public offering earlier this year. These trends indicate strong investor confidence and an influx of funding towards innovative cancer therapies. Meanwhile, CeQur's $100 million Series E funding round aims at accelerating insulin patch delivery systems' commercial growth—highlighting ongoing innovation in diabetes management solutions. Regulatory updates reveal AstraZeneca facing reprimands from the UK marketing watchdog due to repeated breaches related to LinkedIn activities—an ongoing challenge in pharmaceutical marketing compliance. The integration of digital health solutions continues apace as ixlayer partners with Vertex Pharmaceuticals to launch a digital acute pain management platform. This initiative aims at improving patient care by reducing reliance on opioid-based treatments. These developments paint a picture of an industry where scientific innovations, regulatory hurdles, and technological advancements intersect to shape future therapeutic landscapes. Precision oncology is another area witnessing substantial growth. The landscape also sees notable activity in rare disease therapeutics. Johnson & Johnson's Talvey has gained acceptance in Scotland for treating relapsed multiple myeloma using bispecific antibody technology—a trend toward leveraging immune system targeting technologies to enhance cancer treatment efficacy. Moreover, Zai Lab's Tivdak received approval from China's NMPA for cervical cancer treatment based on Phase 3 data, highlighting the rise of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) as potent oncology therapies due to their targeted delivery mechanisms. On the research collaboration front, AlzeCure Pharma's partnership with Eli Lilly focuses on Alzheimer's disease research through Alzstatin ACD680—a small molecule targeting neurodegenerative pathways—a testament to the collaborative efforts needed to tackle complex diseases like Alzheimer's. However, challenges persist as Bial discontinued its GCase activator program after failing Phase 2b trials for Parkinson's patients with GBA1 variants—a stark reminder of the high-risk nature inherent in drug development despite initial promise. These myriad developments underscore a vibrant period within pharmaceutical and biotech sectors where scientific advancements rapidly translate into actionable therapies promising substantial improvements in patient care by addressing unmet medical needs globally.Support the show

Rapamycin may be able to help older adults live longer, healthier lives. Studies of mice suggest the drug may even reverse hardening of the arteries. Researchers at UT Health San Antonio have launched a clinical trial to see if the drug can restore the biological activity of older adults to levels more typical of younger people, and, if so, how much does it take to do it?

AP correspondent Donna Warder reports on a pill that's helping some patients with advanced pancreatic cancer live longer.

Sarah, Ken, and Evan take a look at the Vatican's new statements about AI, a disturbing MAID case coming out of Canada, an article that asks if it was worth it to spend $200 million on one soldier, and whether more people in Europe die from a lack of air conditioning than Americans do from guns. 

You lived through it. You lost people. And somewhere along the way you decided HIV was somebody else's problem now. It is not. Andrew Spieldenner and Alex Garner from MPact Global Action join Rick for a conversation that does not let the queer community off the hook. MPact works across 60 countries supporting LGBTQ-led organizations fighting HIV stigma, funding cuts, and the political forces making all of it worse.

Hour 3

It's Thursday, May 28th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Iranian Christian convert gets 10-year prison sentence A judge in Iran recently sentenced a Christian convert to nearly a decade in prison. That's according to the Persian-language Human Rights Activists News Agency. Authorities raided the home of Ghazal Marzban in January. They arrested her and confiscated her Bible. A judge sentenced her to nine years and eight months in prison last week on trumped up charges.  The 41-year-old Christian woman converted to Christianity from Islam nearly 10 years ago. Since then, she has faced arrest, imprisonment, interrogation, and now another imprisonment.  Please pray for our persecuted brothers and sisters in Christ in Iran. The country is ranked 10th on the Open Doors World Watch List of the most oppressive countries to be a Christian.  Hebrews 13:3 says, “Remember the prisoners as if chained with them—those who are mistreated—since you yourselves are in the body also.” Trump's Cabinet meeting on war with Iran U.S. President Donald Trump held a cabinet meeting at the White House yesterday about the Iran war.  The United States and Iran remain in a fragile ceasefire that began last month. President Trump hopes to finish the war through negotiations.  Listen. TRUMP: “Iran is very much intent; they want very much to make a deal. So far, they haven't gotten there. We're not satisfied with it, but we will be. Either that or we'll have to just finish the job. Their navy is gone, as I've said a thousand times. Their navy is gone. Their air force is gone. Everything's gone. And they're negotiating on fumes.” However, the Trump administration is prepared to finish the job with the military if negotiations fail. Listen to comments from War Secretary Pete Hegseth.  HEGSETH: “Whether it is through the efforts of your negotiators, that they ensure they never have a nuclear weapon, or we have to go back to the War Department to finish the job that way, we're prepared to do that.” MAGA Ken Paxton trounced Senator John Cornyn in GOP primary In a rejection of the GOP Establishment in the May 26th Senatorial run-off in Texas, Republican Party voters ousted Senator John Cornyn who has been in the Senate for 23 years, according to World Magazine.   After President Donald Trump endorsed Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton during early voting, he trounced Cornyn, 63% to 36%, reported NBC News. CORNYN: “After a public service career lasting more than four decades and 18 consecutive campaign wins, tonight we've come up short in this primary runoff. A few years ago, I had a friend of mine say, ‘You know what makes God laugh?' He said, ‘When we make plans.'” Without referencing Ken Paxton by name, Senator Cornyn vowed to support him in the general election this November. CORNYN: “I've spent most of my time in the Senate, building the Republican Party in Texas, and in the U.S. Senate. I've always supported the Republican ticket, and I intend to do so again in this general election. I've said throughout this race that I trust the voters of Texas. They've made their decision, and I must respect it.” However, Cornyn did throw some shade at the registered Republicans who failed to show up and vote for him. CORNYN: “In this runoff election, approximately 8% of registered voters made their voices heard. Of that 8% who voted, roughly 60% said they were ready for a different direction. Another reminder that those who show up decide for those who do not.” (Watch Senator Cornyn's 7:42-minute concession speech here). Ken Paxton, who has vowed to support the Trump agenda, said this. PAXTON: “Today, change was on the ballot, and change won.” (applause) He expressed his gratitude for President Trump's endorsement. PAXTON: “When everyone in Washington told him to abandon me and abandon the people of Texas, he didn't listen. Instead, he gave his complete and total endorsement. President Trump is the leader of our party, and his endorsement is the most powerful force in politics. And I'm honored to have his support, and I look forward to working with him in the Senate to deliver for Texas.” Despite Cornyn and his allies outspending Paxton 9 to 1, Paxton came out on top in this $163 million primary, making it the most expensive primary in U.S. history. PAXTON: “We went up against $150 million and all the attacks in the world. And you know what happened? The voters declared loud and clear a simple truth that we know in our hearts and in our souls: Texas is not for sale.” (cheers) Paxton pivoted to the general election and spoke about his Democrat opponent, James Talarico, a 37-year-old Texas State Representative. PAXTON: “My opponent is the most extreme radical the Democrats have ever nominated. He's even running a ‘vegan' campaign, whatever that is. (laughter) He goes by a few names that you may all have heard of. Some people know him as ‘Tofu Talarico.' (laughter)  Some people call him ‘Six-Gender Jimmy.' (laughter)  I've even heard some people call him ‘James Tala-freak-o.'  (laughter) “He's a threat to our children. He wants boys in girls' sports, gender mutilation surgery performed on kids. And, when asked what he loved, outside of his family and friends, his first answer was ‘trans kids.' That's weird. That's a radical guy. “He wants the open borders policies of Biden, the woke agenda of AOC. He said, ‘You can't be a Christian if you support the oil and gas industries.'” (Watch Ken Paxton's 9:51-minute victory speech here.) Man who gave Abortion Kill Pill to pregnant woman indicted A Texas jury indicted a man last week in an abortion-related case.  Twenty-five-year-old Jon Rueben Demeter allegedly gave an abortion-inducing drug to a pregnant woman, killing the unborn baby.  It's the first time Texas has criminally charged someone for providing an abortion since banning most abortions in 2022. Connecticut requires background check for homeschool parents Connecticut is expanding its regulation of homeschooling in the state. Democrat Governor Ned Lamont signed Public Act No.26-37 into law on Tuesday. The law requires parents to disclose their intent to homeschool to the state. Also, parents cannot take their children out of public school for homeschooling without undergoing a background check. James Mason, the president of the Home School Legal Defense Association, said, “By requiring every parent to be pre-screened before they can begin homeschooling, it turns parents from trusted actors into potential risks to be managed.” 42% of Christians don't talk about God with other believers And finally, Lifeway Research released analysis of its 2025 State of Discipleship Living Unashamed study. The survey found that 30 percent of Protestant churchgoers agree with the statement that “Many people who know me are not aware I am a Christian.” That's up from 14 percent in 2013. Also, 42 percent of respondents said spiritual matters do not normally come up in daily conversations with other Christians. That's up from 29 percent in 2013. Psalm 71:1 and 15, says, “In you, O LORD, do I take refuge; let me never be put to shame! … My mouth will tell of Your righteous acts, of Your deeds of salvation all the day, for their number is past my knowledge.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, May 28th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

The U.S. House just passed an amended version of the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, and it removed the one provision that had Opportunity Zone investors on edge: a 7-year forced-sale requirement for build-to-rent (BTR) housing that would have collided head-on with the OZ 10-year hold. In this episode of OZ NewsHour, we break down what happened, why it matters for OZ fund sponsors and investors, and what comes next as the bill heads back to the Senate. We also look ahead to how states are gearing up for the OZ 2.0 nomination window, share an update on Jimmy's forthcoming book, and take your questions live.

It's Wednesday, May 27th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Canadian group penalized for targeting Christians LifeSiteNews reports that an activist group in Canada recently lost its government funding after being exposed for targeting Christians. The Canadian Anti-Hate Network gets hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxpayer funding each year. Conservative lawmakers have called out the group for its hostility to Christians and pro-lifers.  Campaign Life Coalition posted on X, “The Canadian Anti-Hate Network is reportedly out of Canadian Heritage funding. This is welcome news. For years, Canadians have been forced to subsidize an activist organization that has helped fuel suspicion and hostility toward Christians, pro-lifers, and other peaceful citizens.” Only 34 percent of Canadians say Bible is authoritative Lifeway Research released its new State of Theology in Canada Study. The survey found 51 percent of Canadians say that religious belief is not about objective truth. Only 34 percent believe the Bible has the authority to tell us what we must do.  A majority of Canadian adults believe God accepts the worship of all religions, that most people are good by nature, and that the Bible is not literally true.  Scott McConnell, executive director of Lifeway Research, noted, “For most Canadians, the Bible's teaching on how to live is only as convincing as the Bible itself. When half openly doubt the Bible, it is not surprising that the majority disagree with the Bible on how it says to live.” Proverbs 29:18 says, “Where there is no prophetic vision the people cast off restraint, but blessed is he who keeps the law.” Alaska could expand access to Abortion Kill Pill In the United States, Alaska passed legislation last week that could expand access to the Abortion Kill Pill. House Bill 195 would allow pharmacists to prescribe drugs to individuals, not just administer them.  Pat Martin is the director of Alaska Right to Life. He warned that the measure would “expand Chemical Abortion (Mifepristone) access from Anchorage and Fairbanks Planned Parenthood sites to virtually every city, town, and village that has a hospital, clinic, or pharmacy.” Romans 3:15-18 says, “Their feet are swift to shed blood; in their paths are ruin and misery, and the way of peace they have not known. There is no fear of God before their eyes.” Hawaiian officials in hot water for censoring free speech Officials in Hawaii agreed to pay over $100,000 to settle a free speech lawsuit last week. The Babylon Bee sued the state over its law that censored online political speech. The Christian news satire site won a similar case in California last year with the help of Alliance Defending Freedom. Seth Dillon, the CEO of The Babylon Bee, commented on the recent victory in Hawaii. He said, “This settlement marks yet another victory for the First Amendment and for anyone who values the right to speak freely on political matters without government interference.” Buying power of U.S. workers fell by 3% Pew Research released a report on American wages compared to the rising cost of living. In the past 20 years, wages have outpaced inflation. Based on the Consumer Price Index, the median wage's real buying power grew by 12.1 percent between 1999 and 2025.  However, over the past five years, the buying power of median wages actually fell by over three percent. This aligns with record inflation levels in recent years.  Weekly churchgoers have better mental health And finally, the Wheatley Institute published a report entitled, “The Religion and Mental Health Connection.” The report reviewed thousands of studies linking religion to better mental health by a 10-to 1 ratio. Studies found the rates of suicide, depression, and anxiety were lower among people who attended religious services. This was especially true for people who attended services at least weekly.  The report stated, “It is not nominal affiliation, but committed religious involvement that appears to matter most.” Hebrews 10:23-25 says to Christians, "Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, May 27th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

Yes, the episode is about a rock singer but it's also about any of us who grind away for the benefit of our work and the detriment of ourselves. The sudden cancellation of the band Sweet Pill's extensive tour promoting their sophomore album Still There's a Glow came as a shock to fans and the press. But it makes total sense given that singer Zayna Youssef had been working herself into the ground with writing, recording, designing merch and album covers and backstage passes, and everything else she could think of to make her band an even bigger success than what their first album brought. Some things she didn't do: be kind to herself, give as much are to herself as she did the new album, or savor the success they had already had. The result was a mental and physical crisis point, a running out of gas on the part of the whole band that made them slam the emergency brake on the prospect of going out on a long tour and working even harder. In a very candid and often very funny interview, Zayna tells us how things got to this point, what she's learned about the grind that can lead to better outcomes down the road, what her new album is ultimately about, and how the now-rescheduled tour will be different.

This week on Drew Blood's Dark Tales, author Aaron Shotwell invites listeners into a waking nightmare where sleep becomes escape, time becomes meaningless, and one mysterious black pill changes everything. What begins as a desperate attempt to disappear from reality spirals into a vision of devastation so vivid, so disturbingly intimate, that it refuses to fade upon waking. As ruined cities, hollow-eyed survivors, and impossible figures emerge from the darkness, one man is forced to confront the terrifying cost of apathy—and the unbearable question of whether the future he witnessed was ever truly a dream at all.Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/

What if the biggest barrier to a longer life isn't science, but the economic incentives of corporations? In this episode of Onward, Ben sits down with Celine Halioua, founder and CEO of Loyal — the biotech company on track to earn the first-ever FDA approval for a drug whose only purpose is to extend lifespan. The catch: they're starting with dogs.Celine walks Ben through why the U.S. healthcare system is structurally incapable of building preventative medicine, why each dog-owner relationship is a "micro single-payer health care system," and how a quiet 2019 change to FDA regulation was the one-to-one cause of Loyal existing at all. ("If this pathway didn't exist, Loyal wouldn't exist. October 2019, I incorporated.")From there, the conversation widens. Celine lays out the Tesla-style master plan — save the dogs, save the world — that uses dog-drug revenue to fund human longevity work, escaping the discipline of biotech VC entirely. Ben presses her on AI in drug development (she's skeptical it will change clinical trials anytime soon), public-market short-termism, and the kind of scenario planning that prepares a company for what nobody saw coming.—For a deeper dive into these insights and more, be sure to listen to the full episode of the Onward podcast.Have questions or feedback about this episode?

Certain technology companies may face special risks that their products or services may not prove to be commercially successful. Technology companies are also strongly affected by worldwide scientific or technological developments, and as a result, their products may rapidly become obsolete.The Fund's investments in companies involved in, or exposed to, artificial intelligence-related businesses may be negatively impacted because of, among other things, limited product lines, markets, financial resources and/or personnel; intense competition and potentially rapid product obsolescence these companies may face; loss or impairment of intellectual property rights; and the inability to successfully develop products or services even after spending significant amount of resources.The Fund's investment in private company securities, whether made directly or indirectly (e.g., through derivatives or private pooled investment vehicles) are generally illiquid. Because private company securities are thinly traded, such securities may display especially volatile or erratic price movements, sometimes in response to relatively small changes in investor supply or demand or other market conditions.

Colorectal cancer is now the leading cancer killer in adults under 50, and patients in their 20s are presenting with metastatic disease that has nothing to do with family history. Most physicians are still telling young patients with rectal bleeding that it's probably just hemorrhoids and that's costing lives.In this episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon sits down with Dr. Michelle Pearlman, a board-certified gastroenterologist and founder of a Miami-based gastro-metabolic clinic, to discuss:The specific warning signs every adult under 50 should never ignore, regardless of age including rectal bleeding, unintentional weight loss, and persistent abdominal painWhy GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Zepbound are being miscategorized as weight loss drugs when they're actually metabolic reprogrammers with applications in fatty liver, sleep apnea, and inflammationThe protein, fiber, and resistance training protocol Dr. Pearlman uses to protect muscle mass in patients on GLP-1 therapyHow hormone replacement therapy combined with GLP-1s is changing body composition outcomes for perimenopausal women and why current guidelines are still 20 years behind the dataDr. Pearlman's personal osteoporosis diagnosis at 39, despite being a lifelong bodybuilder, and what it revealed about the diagnostic gaps in standard medicineThis conversation gives you the framework to recognize the warning signs most physicians are still missing, and the foundational habits; nutrition, resistance training, and hormone optimization that protect your gut, bones, and muscle through midlife and beyond.Thank you to our sponsors: Cozy Earth - Go to https://bit.ly/4teXQhz for up to 20% off!

This week, we’re presenting the first episode of “The Network,” a series that Latino USA co-produced with NPR’s Embedded. In the mid-1980s, an OBGYN in Brazil noticed that far fewer pregnant women at his hospital were dying from abortion complications. It wasn’t a coincidence. Brazilian women had made a discovery that allowed them to safely have abortions at home, despite the country’s abortion restrictions. That discovery eventually spread across the globe and transformed access to abortion for millions of women, including women now in the United States. Latino USA is the longest-running news and culture radio program in the U.S., centering Latino stories and hosted by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Maria Hinojosa.

25 years ago, the FDA approved a pill that would change the way scientists treat cancer … for good. The pill was called Gleevec; it was designed specifically to treat CML, chronic myeloid leukemia, and it was one of the first targeted cancer therapies available. A quarter century after approval, it's still being prescribed, as are second, third and fourth-generation drugs that followed in its footsteps. What made it so special – and so effective? Pharmaceutical correspondent Sydney Lupkin walks us through the history of the drug, and why it's continued to change lives for decades.If you liked this episode, check out our other episodes with Sydney on accelerated drug approvals and the development of GLP-1 pills.Interested in more stories about medicine and medical treatment?
