This week on Everybody in the Pool, we're celebrating our 100th episode with a look at what matters most: your actions.Since this show began a little over two years ago, the goal has been simple — to spotlight innovation, ingenuity, and capital coming together to tackle the climate crisis. Hope is stronger than fear, but hope alone isn't a plan. This milestone episode is about agency — the choices we make in our own lives, and how together, those choices add up to systemic change.Listeners wrote in and sent voice memos sharing the climate actions they've taken:Investing through platforms like Climatize to fund renewable energy projectsMoving retirement savings and banking into fossil fuel–free funds and community credit unionsCutting back on red meat, shifting diets, and sourcing local foodTackling food waste with apps like FlashFood and composting with Mill (our presenting sponsor for this week's episode)Retrofitting homes with solar, heat pumps, and energy efficiency upgradesRethinking careers, transportation, and even family planning with the climate in mindAlong the way, we revisit powerful clips from past episodes and highlight the ripple effects of these solutions — from decarbonizing finance to building circular food systems.Thank you to everyone who has listened, shared, and taken action.

„Wie oft ich mich an Autobahnraststätten umgezogen habe, halbnackt auf Parkplätzen stand oder mir an Tankstellen die Haare geföhnt habe. Ich habe alles durch - glamourös war es bei mir nie.“ - Vera Int-Veen ist eine echte TV-Legende und spricht in dieser Folge BUNTE VIP GLOSS mit Podcast-Host Jennifer Knäble über die Realität hinter dem Glanz der Fernsehwelt. Gemeinsam werfen sie einen Blick hinter die Kulissen und würdigen die oft unsichtbaren Heldinnen und Helden des Showbusiness: die Maskenbildner. Von ihnen hat Vera Beauty-Tricks gelernt, die sie bis heute begleitet. -- Welche Routinen aus dem Backstage nimmt sie noch immer mit in ihren Alltag? Auf welchen Wirkstoff schwört sie in der Hautpflege? Und weshalb sollte man vor einem der wichtigsten Tage im Leben lieber auf Sushi verzichten? Vera verrät, wie sie mit Beauty-Eingriffen umgeht - und ob sie sich vielleicht selbst einen zum 60. Geburtstag schenken würde. -- Doch es geht nicht nur um Äußerlichkeiten: Vera spricht auch über ihr Leben nach dem Fernsehen. Mit Ehefrau Obi und Hund Poppy genießt sie ihre persönliche „TV-Rente“ – beim Kochen in der geliebten Küche, beim Kajakfahren im Pool oder bei Spaziergängen im Wald. Und sie hat eine klare Botschaft: „Jeder Mensch sollte Bratkartoffeln kochen können.“ -- Ein ehrliches, persönliches und überraschend privates Gespräch – Vera Int-Veen bei BUNTE VIP GLOSS.

# Our Mission: Meeting Needs with Wisdom and Generosity In the second week of our mission series, we explored the theme of meeting needs with wisdom and generosity. The sermon was anchored in the story of Jesus healing the paralyzed man at the Pool of Bethesda from **John 5:1-15**. This narrative provided a backdrop to discuss how we as a community can discern which needs to meet and how to do so in a way that aligns with God's will. ## Key Themes ### 1. **Understanding Needs vs. Resources** One of the challenges highlighted is that needs often outpace available resources. This is akin to the eternal balance between questions and answers. There will always be more needs than what can be met, just as there are more questions than answers. Jesus himself acknowledged this reality in **Matthew 26:11** when he said, "The poor you will always have with you." This indicates the perpetual presence of need in our world. ### 2. **Determining Which Needs to Meet** The sermon emphasized the importance of discerning which needs to address. Not every need is meant to be met by us because need itself can be a catalyst for change. Jesus, although capable, did not heal every person he encountered. This selective approach is seen in **John 5:1-15**, where Jesus heals one man among many at Bethesda. This teaches us that sometimes, the presence of unmet needs can lead individuals to turn towards God, seeking hope and placing their faith in Jesus. ### 3. **The Role of Generosity** Generosity is a hallmark of God's children, as seen in **1 John 3:16-18**. Meeting needs should start within the family of believers, ensuring that our brothers and sisters in faith are cared for first. This practice reflects the love of Christ, who laid down his life for us. When we see a brother or sister in need and have the means to help, we should act with compassion and not merely with words. ### 4. **Practical Steps for Meeting Needs** - **Eagerly Practice Generosity:** Be actively looking for opportunities to give, as God loves a cheerful giver. - **Start with Family:** Prioritize meeting the needs of those within our church family, as instructed in **1 Timothy 5:3-4**. - **Evaluate Needs:** Discern whether meeting a specific need will empower or enable the person. This involves asking if the help provided will be a "hand up" rather than a "hand out." - **Support Those Who Cannot Help Themselves:** As **James 1:27** states, pure religion involves looking after orphans and widows in distress. - **Respond to God's Prompting:** When God lays a need on your heart, act on it, trusting that He is inviting you to join Him in His work. ## Conclusion Meeting needs is a complex but vital aspect of our mission. As we strive to make friends and make disciples, we must approach this task with wisdom, ensuring that our efforts are fruitful and God-glorifying. Through our generosity, we not only meet immediate needs but also point others to Jesus, who meets our deepest need for forgiveness and reconciliation with God. Let us be faithful stewards of the resources God has entrusted to us, investing in His kingdom and expanding His glory on earth as it is in heaven.

Planet Poet-Words in Space – NEW PODCAST!  LISTEN to my WIOX show (originally aired August l2th, 2025) featuring poets Bertha Rogers and Mary Gilliland. Bertha and Mary discuss their new books and talk about their work and their lives in poetry over the last few decades. Mary Gilliland is the author of Ember Days, The Devil's Fools (winner of the Codhill Press Pauline Uchmanowicz Poetry Award and the CNY Book Award), and The Ruined Walled Castle Garden (winner of the Bright Hill Press Poetry Prize). Honors include the 2023 International Literary Seminars Kenya/Fence 1st Prize in Poetry and a Cornell University Council on the Arts Faculty Grant. Mary is a poet, ecologist, and occasional essayist in New York's Finger Lakes Region where she has transformed a rocky acre of Six Mile Creek into a fawn-filled woodland garden. https://marygilliland.com/ Bertha Rogers is a poet, translator, and visual artist who lives and writes and walks on a mountain in New York's Catskills. Her recent poetry collection (Salmon, Ireland), is What Want Brings: New & Selected Poems. Her translation of the Anglo-Saxon Riddle Poems from the Exeter Book was published in 2019; and her translation of Beowulf  in 2000 (Birch Brook, NY).  Bertha, named First Poet Laureate of Delaware County, New York, in March 2005, and was the founding director of Bright Hill Press and Word Thursdays, a nonprofit organization in New York's Catskill Mountain Region.  www.bertharogers.com. Praise for Bertha Rogers and Mary Gilliland "The richness of Bertha Rogers's poetry flows from each line, each word, not just on the page to be seen, but heard as we silently mouth the words. Oh, how perfectly musical hervoice is, sometimes celebratory, sometimes sad, but always in tune with the matter at hand, whether it be nature or love or loss. Now I trust/in poems, rustling red leaves/I lay carefully on white pages,' she tells us. Her trust is well placed. What Want Brings brings us a most welcome treasure of poems new and selected."  --Matthew J. Spireng - author of Good Work, winner of 2019 Sinclair Poetry Prize Mary Gilliland's In the Pool of the Sea's Shoulder is a modern classic; an elemental deep-dive into the life of her brother, as Freddy, whose life was tragically cut short. Here, time and memory are distilled by ‘listening into the dark' in a poetics so sensitively attuned to loss and written through a myriad of forms and voices. Within the elegiac energy, there are echoes of Muriel Rukeyser's activist commitment in the documentary approach here. Tender yet ludic, this is a work of searing intelligence. Gilliland is a visionary poet writing at her peak.—JAMES BYRNE

This week's episode kicks off with the very exciting news that Rheannon's youngest, now nick-named Bam Bam, has started crawling. It is a whole new world with now both kids being mobile in Rheannon's house. Tamara finds herself making the rules while baby-sitting, and it getting used to being the one to make and enforce rules. Tamara went swimming with three kids, and at one point was racing two of the older kids. Although she warned the kids to avoid the other people in the pool. It mostly worked out, but Tamara was too busy beating the two kids swimming that she isn't exactly sure. Rheannon has made a mistake of buying too many carrots at the store, and we are hearing in real time just how her wife is planning on cooking all those carrots. Both Tamara and Rheannon think they will win at the driving range. They will have to go to Top Golf to settle this. It will surely go downhill fast, much like this episode.

In this week's episode, both of our storytellers transform into someone they admire—one quite literally, the other more figuratively.Part 1: While juggling climate science studies and a budding comedy career, Rollie Williams finds an unexpected niche impersonating his environmental hero, Al Gore.Part 2: Scott Acton longs to follow in Hemingway's footsteps, but when his English teacher squashes his writing dreams, he reluctantly accepts his role as “the computer guy.”Rollie Williams is a Brooklyn-based comedian, video editor, and guy with both student debt and a Climate Science & Policy degree from Columbia University. He is the creator and host of the digital comedy series Climate Town. In the past few years, the channel has amassed 600,000 subscribers, several millions views, and a handful of awards. Rollie is also the co-creator and co-host of podcast The Climate Denier's Playbook. Formerly, Rollie performed a monthly comedy show 'An Inconvenient Talk Show' doing sketches and comedic deep dives by pairing comedians (SNL, The Daily Show, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, etc) together with climate scientists (NASA, MIT, Harvard). When he's not doing climate stuff, Rollie plays an unhealthy amount of billiards and recently achieved his dream of commentating for the World Cup of Pool in England. Scott Acton is Professor and Chair of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Virginia. He did his undergraduate studies at Virginia Tech and graduate studies at the University of Texas at Austin. Scott's laboratory is called VIVA – Virginia Image and Video Analysis. They work on image analysis problems from imaging for Alzheimer's disease to analyzing classroom videos for improving elementary math education. Scott also recently worked for the National Science Foundation as a program director for programs in signal processing and artificial intelligence. When he's not doing research at UVA, you will find him in the mountains on his purple mountain bike.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week on Everybody in the Pool, we're diving into ocean intelligence. Despite covering more than 70% of the Earth, the ocean remains one of the least understood parts of our climate system — and that knowledge gap has huge consequences for weather prediction, global commerce, and climate resilience.Our guest is Tim Janssen, co-founder and CEO of Sofar Ocean, a company building the world's largest privately deployed network of ocean sensors. Their inexpensive, solar-powered Spotter buoys collect real-time data on waves, weather, and water conditions — information that fuels better climate models, safer shipping routes, and more sustainable ocean economies.We talk about:The massive “ocean data gap” and why it hinders weather and climate forecastingHow Sofar's 2,500+ Spotter buoys are creating the largest private ocean sensor networkWayfinder, Sofar's “Google Maps for ships,” and how it saves fuel and cuts emissionsWhy more ocean intelligence is critical for industries from aquaculture to shippingPartnerships with researchers, governments, and nonprofits to democratize ocean dataThe bigger vision: turning ocean information into a foundation for climate solutionsFrom global trade to Pacific Island communities, ocean intelligence has the potential to save money, reduce emissions, and protect vulnerable coastlines. Janssen explains why data may be the most important climate solution of all.LINKS:Sofar Ocean: https://www.sofarocean.com/All episodes: https://www.everybodyinthepool.com/Subscribe to the Everybody in the Pool newsletter: https://www.mollywood.co/Become a member and get an ad-free version of the podcast: https://everybodyinthepool.supercast.com/Please subscribe and tell your friends about Everybody in the Pool!

Your training should match your goals — but what happens when those goals go beyond PRs? In this episode of Beast Over Burden, we show you how to adapt strength training for any goal, whether that means balancing swim workouts with barbell lifts, building knee resilience for high-altitude hunting, or nailing the StrongFirst kettlebell snatch test. Through three in-depth case studies, you'll hear exactly how we adjusted programming to fit real-life demands: Reducing gym volume for a competitive swimmer in peak season Using high-bar squats, pause squats, and rucking to prepare a hunter for steep terrain Prioritizing kettlebell snatch work without sacrificing barbell strength We cover how to use the SAID Principle to match your training to your outcome, what to change in your volume and intensity when another sport takes priority, and how to manage recovery so you can perform when it matters most. Whether you lift for performance, adventure, or everyday life, you'll walk away knowing how to adapt strength training for any goal without losing the muscle, strength, and motivation you've worked hard to build.

With a loyal, engaged fanbase and an addiction for pushing boundaries, the show delivers the perfect blend of humor and insight, all while keeping things fun, fresh, and sometimes a little bit illegal. 2024 © 2021 Audacy, Inc.
