Carl Quintanilla, Jim Cramer and David Faber discussed the chip sector rebounding from Monday's weakness, as well as Nvidia looking to snap a seven-day-losing streak — its longest such streak since 2022 — ahead of the chip giant's much-anticipated earnings due out after Wednesday's close of trading. The anchors reacted to Stanley Druckenmiller's op-ed in The Wall Street Journal, in which the legendary hedge fund manager called the Treasury Department's bond intervention a "mistake," adding that the government needs to "let the bond market speak." Shares of Dick's Sporting Goods plunged on lowered guidance: Hear Jim compare the retailer's challenges with Nike's woes. Also in focus: U.S.-Canada trade war intensifies, SpaceX's morning launch, Elon Musk's AI vision, Cramer on beaten-down Netflix shares.

After the 2022 Russian invasion, Ponomarev joined Ukraine's Territorial Defence Forces, and categorically denounced the invasion. While a member of the Russian State Duma, he was the only deputy not to vote in favour of the Russian gay propaganda law and to vote against Russia's annexation of Crimea in March 2014.

On Cincinnati Edition's weekly news review, local journalists join us to talk about the big stories from recent days.
Ask a question hereNatalie Hood continues her conversation with Dewey Case of the Council for the Model Aquatic Health Code, separating cold-plunge science from wellness-industry hype.Cold plunges may be popular, but cold water changes chemical reaction rates, sanitizer performance, testing accuracy, and the body's physiological response. Being young, athletic, or highly experienced around water does not make anyone immune to blood-sugar crashes, loss of consciousness, drowning, or other emergencies.Natalie and Dewey discuss why cold-water samples should be allowed to warm before testing, why commercial plunges should strongly consider supplemental treatment such as UV, ozone, or advanced oxidation, and why a quick pre-entry rinse can remove a surprising amount of contamination before it enters a very small body of water.They also address the biggest myth of all: because someone only spends a few minutes in a cold plunge, the risk must be low. The exposure may be short, but the risks are not necessarily smaller—they are simply different.Topics discussed include:Why even healthy, conditioned athletes can experience emergenciesThe dangers of using a cold plunge, pool, or spa aloneHow cold temperatures affect water-testing reactionsWhy cold samples should be capped and warmed before testingReduced sanitizer reaction rates in cold waterWhy small water volume and heavy bather loads create greater riskThe value of UV, ozone, and advanced oxidationSweat, ammonia, urea, dirt, and everything else bathers drag into the waterWhy pre-entry showers matterHow a simple rinse can substantially reduce contaminantsWhy short exposure does not automatically mean low riskThe importance of supervision, maintenance, testing, and operator diligenceThe takeaway is simple: be diligent. Know what the water is doing, test it regularly, maintain the vessel properly, and never assume that experience or physical fitness makes someone bulletproof.Download the Cold Water Venue Guidance from the Council for the Model Aquatic Health Code.Natalie also shares an update on her Tennessee Triple Crown Open Water Swim Challenge. She will swim more than 21 miles across three open-water marathon events to benefit Every Child a Swimmer through her fundraiser, She Swims So They Can.Special thanks to campaign sponsors Revved Up Apparel, H2Flow Controls, Tenjam, and Talking Pools Podcast.

What happens when a journalist who hates the cold decides to spend three years immersing himself in one of the most extreme athletic subcultures on Earth? In this fascinating conversation, Darin sits down with award-winning journalist and author Chris Ballard to explore the world behind his book The Plunge. After a hip replacement at just 42 forced Chris to rethink his identity as an athlete, cold water initially became a tool for recovery. But curiosity eventually pulled him much deeper, from cold showers and plunges to competitive ice swimming in water below 41°F and ultimately representing the United States at the Ice Swimming World Championships. Together, Darin and Chris separate cold exposure hype from reality, explore what actually happens to the body in freezing water, and reveal why the greatest benefits Chris discovered weren't necessarily physical. They dive into resilience, emotional regulation, mental health, community, our increasingly comfortable modern lives, and why voluntarily doing difficult things may provide something many of us desperately need. What You'll Learn How a hip replacement at 42 led Chris into the world of cold exposure What officially qualifies as ice swimming and why 41°F is the threshold Which popular cold plunge benefits may be overhyped Why community became the most surprising theme of Chris's research How body composition and genetics influence cold tolerance The real dangers of extreme cold and the 1-10-1 survival rule How repeated cold exposure may train emotional regulation and resilience Why cultures in Finland and Denmark treat cold exposure completely differently than Americans How cold swimming has helped some people navigate grief, depression, and isolation Why deliberately doing hard things may matter more than ever in a world built around convenience Chapters 00:00:00 – Welcome to SuperLife 00:00:33 – Sponsor: Alkemis 00:03:24 – Introducing Chris Ballard and the world of cold water swimming 00:04:29 – The hip replacement that changed Chris's life at 42 00:05:40 – How NBA recovery techniques led him to cold exposure 00:07:34 – Going from cold plunges to competitive ice swimming 00:09:40 – Inside the extreme subculture of swimming below 41°F 00:11:01 – The challenge that convinced Chris to compete himself 00:12:17 – Ice swimming and the original spirit of the Winter Olympics 00:13:21 – How to safely begin training for cold exposure 00:15:14 – What officially qualifies as ice swimming? 00:16:20 – Separating cold plunge science from hype 00:17:15 – The most surprising benefit wasn't physical 00:18:05 – Why cold swimming creates such powerful community 00:19:29 – Cold exposure, loneliness, and human connection 00:20:45 – Sponsor: Shakeology 00:22:33 – Why actually getting in the water changed Chris's reporting 00:23:47 – The surprising body type advantage in cold water 00:25:19 – Grandmothers, elite athletes, and the mental side of ice swimming 00:26:09 – When cold water becomes genuinely dangerous 00:27:02 – The 1-10-1 rule for surviving cold water 00:29:41 – Chris attempts an ice kilometer 00:30:28 – Has modern comfort made us weaker? 00:32:19 – Why Finland laughs at America's cold plunge protocols 00:33:36 – The cold plunge benefits that may be overhyped 00:35:51 – Can you train your body to generate heat? 00:36:51 – Anticipatory thermogenesis and extreme cold adaptation 00:38:12 – How three years of cold exposure changed Chris's body 00:39:44 – Training emotional regulation through voluntary discomfort 00:40:48 – Building resilience one difficult moment at a time 00:42:02 – Why modern life is starving us of accomplishment 00:44:13 – AI, shortcuts, and why difficult work still matters 00:46:30 – Why Chris believes experiential storytelling can't be replaced 00:48:55 – The extraordinary people Chris discovered while writing The Plunge 00:49:57 – Cold water, grief, and finding a reason to keep moving 00:50:52 – How cold swimming became a mental health lifeline 00:52:09 – A global community united by challenge 00:53:51 – What Chris's cold exposure routine looks like today 00:54:27 – Why swimming may be the perfect lifelong sport 00:55:05 – Making the U.S. Ice Swimming National Team 00:56:05 – Could ice swimming become an Olympic sport? 00:57:17 – Why swimming through freezing water feels completely different 00:58:01 – Cold water forces you completely into the present moment 00:58:29 – Cold swimming, men's mental health, and escaping your thoughts 00:59:13 – What's next for Chris Ballard 00:59:35 – Accomplishment versus scrolling 01:00:00 – Final thoughts and making cold exposure accessible Thank You to Our Sponsors Alkemis: Go to https://alkemispaint.com/ and use code DARIN10 for 10% off your order.

Send us Fan MailCold plunges and ice baths are appearing everywhere—from fitness centers and recovery facilities to wellness clinics, athletic programs, and luxury spas. But colder water does not automatically mean cleaner or safer water.In this episode of the Talking Pools Podcast, Natalie Hood is joined by Dewey Case, Technical Director for the Council for the Model Aquatic Health Code and Aquatics Coordinator for Williamson County Parks and Recreation in Tennessee.Dewey helped assemble the experts behind the new CMAHC Cold Water Venue Guidance. Together, he and Natalie separate cold-plunge facts from social-media fiction and explain why these increasingly popular venues require far more attention than a tub, a garden hose, and several bags of ice.They discuss why bacteria can survive in cold water, how lower temperatures can slow sanitizer performance, and why even a single user introduces sweat, body oils, cosmetics, urea, and microorganisms into the water. They also examine the much greater contamination burden created when a commercial system serves dozens—or potentially hundreds—of users each week.The conversation covers the risks associated with poorly maintained systems, including biofilm, Pseudomonas, swimmer's ear, and the possibility of transferring gastrointestinal pathogens. They also explain why dunking your head into questionable cold-plunge water may be a particularly bad idea.In This EpisodeWhy cold water does not sanitize itselfThe truth about bacteria and pathogens in cold plungesWhy “I'm the only person using it” does not eliminate water-quality concernsWhat sweat, cosmetics, clothing, and body oils add to the waterWhy users should shower before enteringThe risks of head submersion in poorly maintained waterHow biofilm and Pseudomonas can develop inside plumbing and on surfacesWhy commercial cold plunges are not simply oversized bathtubsHow high bather loads change filtration, sanitation, and maintenance demandsWhy cold-water chemistry can be more challenging than spa chemistryHow low temperatures affect chemical dissolution and disinfectionThe purpose of the new CMAHC Cold Water Venue GuidanceWhy proper operation, cleaning, and maintenance make cold-water immersion saferAs Dewey explains, a home cold plunge used by one person and a recirculating commercial venue serving hundreds of bathers are not the same thing. When the bather load changes, the operational practices must change with it.This episode is essential listening for pool professionals, aquatic operators, health officials, inspectors, facility managers, designers, builders, fitness-center owners, and anyone responsible for operating a commercial cold-water venue.She Swims So They CanNatalie is preparing to swim more than 21 miles across three open-water swimming marathons as part of the Tennessee Triple Crown Open Water Swim Challenge. Her campaign, She Swims So They Can, benefits Every Child a Swimmer and helps provide children with access to lifesaving swim lessons.Her scheduled swims are:September 13, 2026September 20, 2026October 3, 2026Donations will be accepted through October 3, 2026.To learn more, donate, purchase official fundraising apparel, or explore sponsorship opportunities, visit Natalie's Facebook or Instagram pages.

Today's top stories, with context, in just 15 minutes. On today's podcast: 1) Iran suggested negotiations to get more ships moving through the Strait of Hormuz are making progress, after President Donald Trump called off what he said was a major attack on the Islamic Republic. Oil fell on Monday, with Brent crude down about 4.5% to just over $83 a barrel, after Iran’s foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, said discussions between Tehran and Oman over management of the strait are in the final stages. Trump said Sunday that a deal to open the waterway may be close and that new unspecified talks with Iran would begin on Monday. 2) Stocks and bonds rose as the latest sign of easing tensions between the US and Iran pushed oil prices lower, allaying concerns about faster inflation. S&P 500 futures added 0.5%, signaling a positive start to a week awash with key economic data and corporate earnings. Brent crude slid as much as 7.3% to $81.55 a barrel after President Donald Trump called off a planned attack on Iran. Treasuries rose across the curve, with the benchmark 10-year yield dropping four basis points to 4.69%. 3) The US and Japan’s first joint action on the yen in 15 years, with warnings they won’t “hesitate” to move again, has underscored their unprecedented determination to defend the Asian currency. It’s still unclear how much Washington spent to help lift the yen from its four-decade low. But the currency’s rebound points at interventions larger than in 1998 and 2011, when US contributions didn’t surpass the $1 billion mark. Japan alone is estimated to have spent $53 billion on Thursday — a likely single-day record.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Full show notes: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/nickpodcast In this episode, you'll get a practical, plain-language tour of breathwork with Nick Sweeney, a breathwork coach who rebuilt his body with breath after a college bike accident left him unable to walk. You'll learn his Vortex Breath and the Fibonacci counting behind it, why slow breathing is really cardiovascular training that may predict how long you live, how to pair breath with fascia and mobility work, his routines for better sleep and for combining sauna, breath, and cold safely, where he lands on the cold plunge debate, why the air you breathe matters as much as how you breathe, and his "Billions Will Breathe" mission to get a million (and eventually a billion) people breathing in sync. Nick is the founder of Coherence, a breathwork app that trains your nervous system to improve deep and REM sleep, HRV, and stress resilience. After doctors told him his skiing career was over, he went from unable to walk to competing at U.S. Nationals within a year using breathwork, cold, and nervous system work, and today he leads a global movement to have people breathe together as one.

Many people regularly plunge into ice-cold water to soothe soreness or boost energy—but for some, the plunge itself is a sport. As a sports journalist, Chris Ballard was reporting on cold water immersion when he got into ice swimming himself and ended up competing on the US team at world championships. In this episode, Adam dives into Chris's book The Plunge, and the two discuss the psychology behind risk taking, endurance, and resilience in the face of discomfort. They explore why people seek out extreme challenges that push their minds and bodies to the limit, and separate myth from science about the health benefits of cold water immersion.Featured guestFollow Chris Ballard on Instagram, LinkedIn, and chrisballardwritings.com/Buy The Plunge: Maverick Swimmers, an Unlikely Quest, and the Transformative Power of Cold WaterConnect with the teamFollow Adam on Instagram, LinkedIn, and at adamgrant.net/Subscribe to Adam's Substack GrantedWatch ReThinking videos on YouTube at TEDPodsFollow TED on X, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, and TikTokReThinking is produced by Cosmic Standard.

"When you see $6.5 billion in healthcare fraud, we all end up absorbing that in the commercial market."In this episode of Last Month in Healthcare, Producer Nathaniel and I sat down with Sid Sinha, founder and CEO of Avant/Nara Health, to break down the biggest healthcare news stories of June 2026. We started by looking at the DOJ's massive $6.5 billion healthcare fraud crackdown and what 1,400 revoked provider privileges actually means for the commercial market.We also tackled the stark reality that only 49% of U.S. adults now feel "cost-secure" about their healthcare, debated the downstream effects of Medicare's temporary coverage for GLP-1s, and looked at a new House bill that might literally force hospitals to print their prices on clinic walls.To cap it off, we ran a World Cup bracket-style game to crown the ultimate cost-containment strategy for self-funded plans, and I answered a listener question on how to keep clients from bailing on self-funding as medical inflation continues to rise into 2027.

Most people assume ice swimming is just for the crazy or extreme athletes — but what if it's really a gateway to resilience, mental clarity, and community? In this episode, journalist and ice swimming champion Chris Ballard reveals how daring to step into freezing water can transform your mind, body, and life. Whether you're skeptical or curious, Chris shares mind-blowing stories of how cold water exposure can push you past perceived limits and build unshakeable confidence. From the early days of cold showers to competing in the UK's elite ice swimming events and even becoming a national champion — Chris demystifies the science and psychology behind this ancient practice. You'll discover: the surprisingly simple ways to get started with cold plunges, how mental toughness overrides fear, and the powerful benefits that extend far beyond the water. He breaks down the core principles that help seasoned swimmers keep pushing, and reveals how this challenging ritual is a 'quick fix' for mental health, emotional regulation, and resilience—especially for those facing trauma or life's hardships. This isn't just about cold water — it's about how you can use the cold to unlock a more resilient, focused, and connected version of yourself. If you've ever wondered what it takes to turn discomfort into a catalyst for growth, or if you're searching for a community that's as committed as you are to doing the hard things, listen now. Perfect for anyone curious about the transformative power of cold water, or eager to break free from comfort zones—this episode may just redefine what's possible for you. Chris Ballard is a renowned journalist, author of The Plunge, and a competitive ice swimmer who's shattered stereotypes and myths along his journey. His insights into endurance, community, and mental health offer invaluable lessons for both beginners and seasoned athletes alike. Get ready to shiver, learn, and be inspired to dive into your own personal plunge. The cold isn't the challenge — it's the doorway to a stronger, calmer, and more fearless you. 00:00 The Journey into Cold Water Swimming 09:34 The Historical Context of Cold Water Swimming 15:03 Community and Mental Health Benefits of Cold Water Swimming 20:29 Personal Reflections and Future of Cold Water Swimming 20:37 Cold Water Therapy and Its Benefits 23:41 Getting Started with Cold Exposure 27:21 The Challenge of Open Water Swimming 28:39 Swimming Technique and Injury Prevention 34:54 The Journey of Writing and Swimming
Ryan Duey was living in an RV with his float spas closed and no backup plan when he and Michael Garrett built their first cold plunge from a retrofitted $100 bathtub in a garage. They turned their Shopify store on with zero marketing—and got a sale. What followed was one of the most unlikely scaling stories in DTC history: $30 million to $80 million in a single year, $250 million in cumulative revenue, four sharks bidding on Shark Tank, and a category they essentially created from scratch—all bootstrapped, all assembled in-house in California. In this interview, the co-founders of Plunge break down the real cost of scaling a high-ticket inventory business, why they lost an estimated $20 million in revenue from lead times alone, and the organic influencer strategy that built the brand before they ever ran a paid ad. What you'll learn in this interview: • How they got their first sale with zero marketing—and the Black Friday that showed them how big this could get • The cash flow trap every inventory-heavy founder hits: why a great P&L and an empty bank account can exist at the same time • How customer prepayments funded growth for years—and what forced the switch to holding inventory • Why long lead times cost Plunge an estimated $20 million in lost sales • From buying parts on Amazon to co-designing a custom chiller in China—the full supply chain evolution • How a single Instagram comment to Aubrey Marcus started a chain of organic gifting to Huberman, Tony Hawk, and Rich Roll • The Shark Tank deal that never closed—and why they still got the PR, the airing, and the exposure • How they bought plunge.com from a New Orleans jazz band for $250K—and why the trademark was the bigger win • Why nearly half of all orders close through a phone call or SMS, not a checkout button • How they raised $1.3 million from their own customers in under two weeks via Wefunder If you're building a high-ticket DTC brand, navigating the brutal cash flow realities of an inventory-heavy business, or trying to grow without burning cash on paid ads before you're ready, this conversation will fundamentally change how you think about scaling, supply chain, and what it actually takes to build a category from a garage.

Plunge into the chaos of post-Revolution America: mutinous soldiers surrounding Congress, a government too weak to defend itself, and a nation fracturing under the failed Articles of Confederation.

Packed with tension, rebellion, and political intrigue, this episode reveals how close the United States came to falling apart – and how bold ideas, fierce debate, and fragile compromise saved it.
