POPULARITY
Everyone in dynasty fantasy football has heard the "rules"—never draft running backs early, always trade aging veterans, rookie picks are king, and quarterbacks don't matter unless you're in Superflex. But how many of these dynasty strategies actually hold up under scrutiny?In this episode, we're putting some of the biggest dynasty fantasy football myths to the test. Inspired by MythBusters, we'll examine popular dynasty takes, debate the evidence, and decide whether each one is CONFIRMED, BUSTED, or PLAUSIBLE.We'll break down myths surrounding rookie draft picks, player age, running back value, wide receiver longevity, contender vs. rebuild strategies, trade philosophy, and much more. Whether you're a dynasty veteran or preparing for your next startup draft, this episode will challenge some of the assumptions that could be shaping your roster decisions.

Elbridge Colby argues that the U.S. must prioritize Asia as the primary theater, as China stands a plausible chance of regional hegemony unlike Russia. While maintaining NATO, the U.S. should shift conventional obligations to Europeans, as America cannot handle simultaneous major conflicts. Regarding nuclear proliferation, Colby warns that independent arsenals for allies like Australia or Japan are not a panacea for conventional weakness. Instead, a robust conventional defense is preferred to avoid the dilemma of "going nuclear first" or surrendering autonomy to Beijing'sdictate. (8/8)

No Children for Joseph Smith? Joseph Smith’s plural wives One of the most frequent arguments raised by skeptics of Joseph Smith’s polygamy is the “fertility paradox.” While Joseph Smith fathered several biological children with his first wife, Emma, there are zero verified offspring from his estimated 30 to 40 plural marriages. DNA testing on suspected plural children has continuously ruled out Joseph as the father in every known case. Does this lack of physical evidence prove his plural marriages were non-sexual? According to a statistical analysis by Rick Bennett and a research team, the absence of children is not a biological impossibility, but rather a predictable outcome of history, biology, and law. https://youtu.be/Zz6BpX2wZd0 Statistical Models of Probability Bennett, alongside a team that included OBGYN Dr. Joseph Stanford, built four statistical models to determine the mathematical probability of Joseph Smith having zero children with his plural wives. These models factored in female ovulation cycles and historical documentation of Smith’s whereabouts, assuming no birth control was used: Restricted & Low Models: Assuming very infrequent relations and excluding teenagers and already-married women, the probability of zero children sits between 22% and 47%. Bennett equates this to a coin flip or rolling a double in Monopoly, making zero children a statistically unsurprising outcome. Medium (Consensus) Model: Assuming one or two encounters around the time of the sealing for a broader group of wives, the probability of zero children drops to roughly 9% to 13%. High Model: Only when assuming large possible historical encounters across 37 women does the probability of zero children become statistically microscopic (around 0.03%). Biological Factors and 19th-Century Demographics A significant reason for the lack of children stems from the demographic makeup of Joseph’s plural wives. At least five women were post-menopausal (over age 47) and 11 were “polyandrous” wives already married to other men. Furthermore, several brides were teenagers. Interestingly, poorer nutrition and rigorous physical labor in the 19th century delayed a woman’s first period (menarche) until an average age of 17, meaning many of the youngest wives were likely prepubescent and physically infertile at the time of their sealings (See Dan Vogel’s presentation.) Contraception and the Concept of “Quickening” If the High Model is accurate and sexual relations were frequent, Bennett notes that the Nauvoo community had widespread access to birth control. Popular texts from the 1830s heavily circulated knowledge about methods like the sponge, withdrawal, and highly acidic douching to prevent pregnancies. Additionally, 19th-century medical and Mormon theological consensus believed that a soul did not enter a fetus until “quickening” (around 20 weeks.) Because of this, early herbal interventions used to “restore the menses” were viewed simply as regulating the female body, rather than as abortion or sin. Legal and Theological Survival Ultimately, concealing pregnancies was an absolute necessity for survival. In Illinois, bigamy and adultery were felonies heavily penalized by fines, whipping, and imprisonment. Under the law, a child would serve as incontrovertible physical proof of illicit cohabitation, inviting immediate legal prosecution and mob violence. To avoid exposure, the theology of plural marriage subtly shifted. While originally grounded in an “Abrahamic” mandate to multiply and raise up seed on earth, the practice pivoted to a “Melchizedek” order. This new paradigm was focused on creating secret, dynastic priestly linkages for eternal salvation in the afterlife, entirely bypassing the legal dangers of earthly procreation. In short, the absence of children in Nauvoo polygamy is not a historical impossibility, but a reality forcefully shaped by 19th-century logistics, biology, and the heavy anvil of American law.

Yes, many of us assume we're too smart to fall for conspiracies. Think again. Some conspiracies have, in fact, turned out to be real. In this vlog, I explore two that I consider plausible: not only the ongoing anti‑ICE protest, but also the question of why so many non‑U.S. citizens were allowed into the country illegally during the Biden era. These may be more connected than they appear. Ultimately, I raise the question of their relevance to the church.

In this episode of PRIM&R's podcast, "Research Ethics Reimagined," we explore FDA's plausible mechanism pathway for ultra-rare genetic disorders with Holly Fernandez Lynch, Associate Professor of Medical Ethics at the University of Pennsylvania's Perelman School of Medicine. She discusses how this pathway enables personalized gene therapies for N-of-one or N-of-few diseases while raising important questions about regulatory process, evidence standards, and equitable access. Professor Fernandez Lynch also examines the remarkable case of baby KJ, who received a gene editor to treat his urea cycle disorder, and considers both the transformative potential and the procedural concerns surrounding FDA's approach.

Iran, Israel & the CIA: When “Conspiracy” Starts Sounding Plausible | The Karel Show The word conspiracy gets thrown around easily — but sometimes the real-world facts are disturbing enough on their own. As protests erupt in Iran, the political fallout gives Donald Trump fresh justification to escalate tensions. The question becomes: who benefits if conflict expands? Israel? The United States? Powerful interests that thrive on instability? Karel examines why so many people are now willing to believe scenarios that once felt unthinkable — and what it says about the era we're living in. Meanwhile, the Senate makes a stunning move that effectively gives Trump wide latitude in Venezuela, raising serious questions about power, resources, and accountability — and why so few seem to be paying attention. Also in this episode: • Why the facts are often scarier than conspiracy theories • Why Karel is skeptical of CBS News' reporting on the alleged “internal bleeding” of an ICE officer • Voting season for the SAG Awards and Dorian Awards — and why this year's film slate feels oddly underwhelming The Karel Show delivers thoughtful, unfiltered commentary on global politics, media narratives, and culture — without the shouting or fear-bait.
What is the end game with Chronic Wasting Disease? What are we working towards with hundreds of millions in tax dollars spent through research and studies?

Jay is joined by geopolitical analyst and forecaster George Friedman to unpack what President Trump really represents in the long arc of American history. We revisit George's “vanilla president” thesis and why, personality aside, Trump's project to dismantle the post-1945 world order was predictable and perhaps inevitable. We dig into the shift from global policeman back toward U.S. isolationism, the real story behind Venezuela and the U.S. military build-up in the Caribbean, and why a renewed Russia–Cuba pact makes the Florida Straits one of the most important choke points on Earth.

Send us a textSummary: I unpack why medicine sometimes reverses course—and how you can tell sound evidence from shiny anecdotes—with physician-author Dr. Adam Cifu of the University of Chicago and co-author of Ending Medical Reversal.Key topics & takeawaysWhy medicine “flips”: Plausible theories + observational data → premature guidelines; true answers require randomized trials. Classic examples: menopausal hormone therapy, early peanut avoidance, and stents for stable angina (LEAP trial, COURAGEOpen-minded skepticism: Ask, “What's the human outcomes evidence?” Cool mechanisms and moving testimonials aren't proof.Hype outside the clinic: Mitochondria “rechargers,” microbiome panaceas, and biological age tests are intriguing—but not ready for prime time.Nutrition sanity: For supplement evidence summaries, I like Examine.When AI helps (and when it doesn't): Tools can orient you to established topics; they're weaker on breaking studies. Look for linked primary sources.N-of-1 experiments: When evidence is uncertain and the outcome is measurable (sleep, blood pressure, pain), test on yourself—track a baseline, try the change, measure again, and, if possible, stop-start to confirm. Use symptom diaries, validated scales, or wearables.Humility is a signal: Trust sources that sometimes conclude “we don't know.” I often check Cochrane Reviews for balanced syntheses.About my guest Adam Cifu, MD is a professor of medicine at the University of Chicago, author of 140+ peer-reviewed papers, and co-author of Ending Medical Reversal.

In this week's episode of Fully Booked, we explore the fascinating frontier where science fact meets science fiction. Our guest is debut author Nicholas Keating Casbarro, whose background in medical devices and deep-dive research habits have fueled the creation of a richly detailed hard sci-fi series set 700 years in the future. From warp bubbles to quantum entanglement, Casbarro explains how he grounds speculative technologies in plausible science while keeping the narrative accessible and immersive. He shares how world-building begins with asking the right questions about planetary ecology, authoritarian governments, and underground digital networks, and why anchoring every element in scientific theory lends authenticity. Because whether you're writing about the ethical implications of emerging tech or attempting to craft a believable future without losing the human thread, writing hard sci-fi requires a careful balance between rigorous science and storytelling craft.

Pulitzer-winner Caroline Fraser maps the lives and crimes of Ted Bundy and his infamous peers—the Green River Killer, the I-5 Killer, the Night Stalker, the Hillside Strangler, and even Charles Manson—and explores an intriguing hypothesis: might environmental factors have played a role in the rise of serial killers in the 1970s and '80s? Caroline Fraser is the author of Prairie Fires: The American Dreams of Laura Ingalls Wilder, which won the Pulitzer Prize. She is also the author of God's Perfect Child: Living and Dying in the Christian Science Church, and her writing has appeared in The New York Review of Books, The New Yorker, The Atlantic, Los Angeles Times, and London Review of Books, among other publications. Her new book is Murderland: Crime and Bloodlust in the Time of Serial Killers.
Series Five This episode of The New Abnormal podcast features the famous physicist and futurist Dr Joseph Voros, who helps people and organisations think about the future in serious ways through futures-orientated intelligence and strategic foresight capability-building. He's been a professional futurist for over 25 years, initially as a practitioner of and lecturer in strategic foresight, but increasingly in the Defence and National Security context, including participation in NATO's Strategic Foresight activities.We therefore discuss his views on issues including the various categories of futurists (with a nod to 'Synoptic Generalists'), linkage between futurists and intelligence analysts ('cousins or twins?'), why futurists are lucky that they don't have to persistently deal with counterintelligence, and a thought-leadership paper he's just presented to a gathering of officers from that sector. Joseph has a strong belief in the need for both rigorous intellectual discipline as well as practical pragmatic utility in ‘real world' contexts, and this belief lies at the heart of his renowned approach to Futures Studies and strategic foresight. And before you ask, yes we do discuss the “Futures Cone” that he so popularised, regarding a range of ‘nested class' futures i.e. Potential, Preposterous, Possible, Plausible, Probable, Preferable, Projected, and Predicted. Meanwhile, and indeed as what was satire becomes ever more a lived reality, Joseph stresses that one must never forget Wildcards…So, we cover all of the above, in what I hope you'll agree is a fascinating interview.

On Trump's government, his motives and his modus operandi. Political theorist Corey Robin talks to Alex H and contributing editors Lee Jones and Alex Gourevitch about Trump II from a domestic perspective. We look at the three main things he's done so far: cutting the civil service, imposing economic sanctions domestically, and his immigration terror politics. Is Trump a strong president? Does the reliance on executive orders indicate weakness? What happened to the #Resistance? Why has the tariff issue, instead of uniting Republicans as in the 19th century, divided them? Is the bond market the main force limiting Trump's agenda? Has Bernie Sanders' prediction come true – this is now an oligarchy? Does Trump just represent patrimonialism and even gangsterism? A degradation of democracy? What does reaction looks like when there's very little left to react against? Links: /129/ The Right Is Weak ft.
