Money, debt, and finance shape the lives of everyone globally, including through the policies and actions of national central banks – yet even those who are well-versed in these subjects often miss the full scope of these intricate relationships. For the average person, headlines about mounting government debt and surging interest rates often feel like a confusing and concerning trend. What can we learn from historical cycles, global energy dynamics, and the differing fiscal strategies of nations about the trajectory of the world economy? In today's episode, Nate is joined once more by Lyn Alden for a deeper exploration of the intricate relationships between fiscal dominance, rising levels of debt, and the role of energy in shaping our current financial realities. Lyn explains how a historical analysis shines light on the gaps in economic theories like Keynesianism and Modern Monetary Theory, and what the implications are for our present situation. Using this perspective, they discuss recent trends in Bitcoin, Stablecoins, and Artificial Intelligence – and what further developments in these areas might mean for average people in developed and developing countries alike.  How can a deeper understanding of these dynamics prepare us for the economic challenges ahead? What lessons can we draw from past instances when public debt reached unsustainable levels? And as governments attempt to navigate familiar problems with new approaches, how might individuals prepare for the acceleration of this unstoppable train as we head into an increasingly uncertain future?

Sean Combs, known to many listeners as Puffy or P Diddy, remains at the heart of some of the most dramatic headlines in entertainment today. Just yesterday, dramatic testimony emerged in a Manhattan federal courtroom as Combs' former girlfriend described “freak off” sessions in which she and Combs allegedly hired male porn stars for paid sexual encounters in high-end hotels from late 2021 through early 2022. She told jurors the encounters were meant to impress the Bad Boy Records founder and became a prominent part of the federal case against Combs, who was arrested in September 2024 on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering. In court, it was revealed that these “hotel nights” were arranged with the involvement of Combs' money and that explicit material was requested at his direction. Combs, now 55, has pleaded not guilty but faces life in prison if convicted, and these sessions have become a linchpin of the prosecution's argument, according to AOL.Adding to the spectacle, stunning evidence photos were revealed from an FBI raid on Combs' Los Angeles mansion. Investigators allegedly discovered roughly 200 bottles of baby oil and 900 bottles of Astroglide lubricant, stored in what was described as a humidity-controlled container, during a search connected to the ongoing sex trafficking probe. Homeland Security Special Agent Andre LeMon testified to the court that this cache was unlike anything he'd seen in dozens of major investigations. Jurors also saw images from the search of Combs' Miami Beach home, with multiple witnesses describing a series of explicit, drug-fueled events, all of which Combs has strongly denied, reports AOL.Despite the serious criminal accusations, Combs has continued to maintain connections with prominent figures from the music and entertainment industries, a network he's maintained since his early 1990s debut. However, his legal problems have overshadowed much of his legacy. According to CBS News, Combs remains in detention while awaiting sentencing, having been found guilty on two prostitution-related charges, though he avoided conviction on the most severe trafficking and racketeering counts.Meanwhile, rumors have run rampant online, with recent viral videos falsely claiming that comedian Eddie Murphy testified against Combs. These claims have no basis in fact, as FandomWire clarified, confirming that Murphy was never involved in the proceedings against Combs and did not attribute any career move to Combs' influence.As the investigation and court proceedings continue to unfold, the story of Sean Combs stands as one of the most sensational and high-profile in recent music history, with new developments expected in the coming weeks.Thank you for tuning in.

Show Notes On this month's episode, Sue, John and Paul invite Darragh O'Hanlon (@thetopicalvet)  onto the pod to discuss pollen allergies. Chapter 1 – How Pollens Affect Animals (02:32) John introduces the topic of pollen allergies and welcomes guest Darragh O'Hanlon. Darragh shares how Sue's lecture on otitis sparked his dermatology journey, and how John's CPD also played a role. (04:09) John asks how pollens cause allergic reactions in animals. Darragh explains that pollens are airborne reproductive grains from grasses, trees, and weeds, and describes their microscopic structure and typical transmission routes. He shares the story of Mitzi the fox terrier, one of the first dogs documented with airborne pollen allergy. (06:30) Sue asks whether pollens affect more than just the skin. Darragh explains that: In dogs, pollens mostly trigger atopic dermatitis but can also affect eyes and ears. Cats may show respiratory and skin symptoms, including asthma and eosinophilic conditions. Horses show skin reactions like urticaria and, in some regions, respiratory issues like heaves. (08:45) John asks why grass pollens are so problematic over say garden flowers. Darragh notes a rising trend in grass pollen allergy and explains the volume and dispersal of wind-pollinated plants. Garden flowers are less allergenic due to heavier, insect-borne pollen; wind-pollinated plants like grasses and trees produce vast quantities of light airborne pollen. Sue discusses tree flowers and their pollen production. (11:30) Sue asks which trees cause the worst reactions. Darragh highlights birch as a major allergen in Northern Europe. He explains its cross-reactivity with other tree pollens and regional variations such as cypress (Mediterranean) and cedar (Japan). Conifers and pines, though present in air samples, are less allergenic due to their size and resin content. Chapter 2 – Seasons, Cross-Reactions, and Geography (14:20) Sue asks about pollen season overlap and the role of allergy testing. Darragh agrees and describes how pollen calendars can predict seasonal challenges. He outlines Ireland's pollen calendar, from alder and hazel in winter through to weeds in autumn. (16:20) John asks if pollens cross-react with each other or be linked to food sensitivities. Darragh explains: Cross-reactivity is common among grasses and within trees and weeds. Birch is highly cross-reactive. Some food cross-reactions exist in humans (e.g. Mugwort-Birch-Celery Syndrome), but evidence in dogs is limited. (19:55) Sue mentions bee foraging and asks about using tape strips to detect pollens on animals. Darragh shares anecdotes and online interest in identifying pollens via tape stripping. (21:36) Sue asks about ragweed in Ireland. Darragh says it's rare locally but problematic in the US. He discusses its introduction to Europe and control measures. (23:20) John asks how pet owners can reduce pollen exposure. Darragh shares advice: Allergen avoidance is difficult; pollens travel long distances. Regular washing, foot rinsing, and barrier-supporting shampoos help. Avoid walking dogs on freshly cut grass or on high pollen days. (26:10) John asks about environmental factors like altitude or proximity to the sea. Darragh explains: Pollen can travel thousands of kilometres. Grass pollen is more localised than tree pollen. Higher altitudes and coastal winds can reduce exposure. (29:12) Sue mentions a 2023 study on reactions to grass sap, not just pollen. Darragh reflects on cases that may fit contact dermatitis patterns seen with grass sap exposure. Chapter 3 – Testing, Treatment & Takeaways (31:14) Sue asks for practical advice on pollen avoidance and resources. Darragh recommends: Monitoring pollen forecasts (e.g. Met Office, Met Éireann). Using allergy maps from dermatology providers. Avoiding warm, dry, windy days; walking dogs after rain. Understanding how weather affects pollen counts, including the impact of thunderstorms and urban pollution. (35:15) John asks about immunotherapy and vaccine formulation. Darragh explains: Allergen-specific immunotherapy aims to desensitise. Earlier intervention is better. Cross-reactivity helps simplify formulations. (38:36) Sue stresses that vaccine components must reflect relevant, local allergens. Darragh notes the importance of seasonal coverage and discusses challenges with mixing mould and pollen extracts. (41:05) Sue shares an anecdote about a mismatched allergy vaccine and wraps up with thanks to Darragh.

A @Christadelphians Video with Steve Mansfield *Video Description:*

Al-Mugheera Ibn Shu'ba رضي الله عنه Session 33 The Predicament of Rustum Mugeerah (ra) invites Rustum the Persian to Islam, he recognises the truth but his people do not, the same predicament as the Roman Emperor Heraclius. The second emissary converses with Rustum, Ribee ibn Aamir (ra) and states... Allah (SWT) has sent us to remove those whom He (SWT) Wills Fom the slavery of man to the slavery of Allah (SWT). To remove them from the narrowness of this world towards its vastness. And; From the oppression of other religions towards the justice of Islaam.

In Episode 24 of The Choral Director's Toolbox, host Dr. William Baker reflects on The Predicament of Beethoven, sharing insights into the composer's life, suffering, and faith as revealed through his music. Drawing from major biographies and personal letters, Dr. Baker explores how Beethoven's deafness, illness, and isolation shaped both his human journey and his sacred vocation as a composer. This week's listener question offers practical tips for helping community and professional choirs memorize music while rehearsing only once per week. Today's inspiration is Glorious Everlasting by M. Thomas Cousins, performed by the Mountain Park Choir of Atlanta. Join us for a stirring blend of music history, artistry, and inspiration.

Pastor Michelle emphasized that God longs to be invited into every area of our lives, especially our predicaments, and through heartfelt prayer—not shame or performance—He brings healing, freedom, and guidance because His way is perfect and trustworthy.

The Black Mass xx-xx-xx (x) A Predicament & the Tell- Tale Heart

This episode of The Food Professor Podcast, recorded live at the SIAL Food Innovation Show in Toronto, opens with co-hosts Michael LeBlanc and Dr. Sylvain Charlebois breaking down the week's top food and retail stories.First, they tackle the evolving Canadian political stance on supply management. Prime Minister Carney's reversal in support of Bill C-282 suggests renewed government protectionism in agricultural trade, potentially complicating future international deals. Sylvain, who testified against the bill, argues for a smarter, more competitive dairy sector rather than entrenching status quo inefficiencies.Next, they examine the return of Trump-era tariffs, including a 50% levy on aluminum. This move could squeeze margins in the canned food and craft beer sectors. Sylvain praises the Canadian government's decision not to retaliate immediately, calling it a strategic pause rather than knee-jerk nationalism. Then they discuss NielsenIQ data revealing that Canadians are cutting back on U.S. goods—not necessarily out of patriotism, but due to anti-American sentiment—while failing to significantly boost local Canadian brands.The final news item highlights the surprising global shortage of black pepper, linked to poor climate and farming shifts. As Sylvain jokes, barbecue fans like Michael may want to stock up on their secret weapon: 16-mesh pepper!The spotlight then shifts to special guest Vince Sgabellone, Food Service Industry Analyst at Circana Canada. Vince shares compelling insights from the frontlines of Canadian food service. A major trend? The explosion of global cuisine. Whether it's falafel shops, Nepalese momo dumplings, or Ethiopian cafés, Canadians are craving authentic international flavors—even from mainstream chains like Recipe Unlimited.Vince attributes much of this shift to immigration and younger generations of diners. One-third of all restaurant visits now come from people of color, and that number is even higher among Gen Z. These consumers are reshaping the restaurant landscape, fueling growth in fast casual dining and independent eateries with strong ethnic roots.He also reveals that dining out remains resilient in Canada, especially compared to a softening U.S. market. Delivery and takeout are climbing again, even as lunch remains the industry's weakest segment due to remote work. The growing popularity of solo dining, driven by changing social patterns and younger demographics, is creating new design opportunities for restaurant operators.This episode is rich in data, spiced with insights, and ends with a wild story about an elephant raiding a grocery store in Thailand—a perfect reminder that food always finds a way to surprise us.

In 2010, the Association for Information Systems formed a special interest group () to nurture an international community of academics that study the role of digital technologies in fostering environmentally, economically and socially sustainable development. Fifteen years later, we sit down with , the current SIGGreen president, to reflect on the progress we have made. What do we know about how digital technologies help greening our planet? What efforts in empirical, theoretical, and design work is still needed? Is our role to understand the role of digital technologies or do we need to push and enact change ourselves? We conclude that environmental questions and problems are now firmly on the radar screen of our discipline but more work needs to be done for information systems academics to transform the way we think about and use digital technologies.  Episode reading list Corbett, J., & Mellouli, S.

What's up Theology Nerds! Today I'm thrilled to share my conversation with the brilliant Philip Clayton on his new book Science and the Sacred: Beyond the Gods in Our Own Image. This isn't your typical science vs. religion debate - it's something way more interesting! Philip co-authored this book with Claudia Pierce, an atheist religion journalist, creating a beautiful dialogue between theistic and non-theistic perspectives that finds surprising common ground. We explore how their five-year collaboration revealed shared values even as they maintained different views on God. Phil walks us through how modern scientific understanding can coexist with spiritual meaning, challenging both religious fundamentalism and reductive scientism. We dive into questions from both conservative Christians and skeptical atheists who read the book in advance, creating a lively three-way conversation about doubt, faith, and what it means to approach mystery with openness rather than certainty. If you're tired of culture war takes on science and religion and hungry for nuanced dialogue across differences, this episode is your jam! And guess what? Phil's coming to Theology Beer Camp this year, so grab your tickets before May 15th when prices go up! You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube As a scholar, Philip Clayton (Ingraham Professor, Claremont School of Theology) works at the intersection of science, philosophy, and theology. As an activist (president of EcoCiv.org, President of IPDC), he works to convene, facilitate, and catalyze multi-sectoral initiatives toward ecological civilization. As a disciple of Jesus, he finds himself energized by the Spirit in the Quaker community.

"Religion is the new politics" - Tony Blair

  Hey y'all, welcome back to the Designed for the Creative Mind Podcast! I'm so glad you're here. We're kicking off a brand new season: Rookie Mistakes and Real Talk — where I'm mixing up business blunders and behind-the-scenes truths from running an interior design firm. Today's episode is for every designer who's ever said “yes” when they really wanted to scream “oh hell no” — and then paid the price for it. We're diving into the sneaky ways people pleasing shows up in client relationships, why it's so damaging to your business, and how to set boundaries like the confident CEO you are (even if you feel a little nasally like I do — thanks, Texas allergies!). What we cover in this episode: What people pleasing actually looks like in an interior design business How saying "yes" all the time leads to scope creep, burnout, and resentment Why being liked is not the same as being trusted — and why trust matters more Real talk about the mindset shift from being "kind" to being a true leader A story about my client Claire, who broke the people-pleasing cycle (and how you can too) Practical examples of how to set confident, kind boundaries without feeling pushy Why you are a business, not a bestie (and why that's a GOOD thing!) Big takeaway: Running your business with clear leadership and boundaries doesn't make you mean — it makes you trustworthy. Your clients want you to lead them. If you're bending over backwards for approval, it's time to rethink it. Being liked isn't nearly as valuable as being trusted. If this episode hit home for you: Take a screenshot and share the one boundary you're going to practice this week!

And if you loved what you heard, don't keep it to yourself — send this episode to a fellow designer who could use a little nudge, and leave a review wherever you're listening. Your reviews seriously help this show grow, and I appreciate every single one. Coming up next week: We're tackling why shopping retail could be wrecking your profits and how to explain trade pricing without sounding defensive. You definitely don't want to miss it.

When we are able to see the full scope of a problem, rather than a fragment, it changes how we respond. Throughout history, comprehensive data has catalyzed transformative change—from the measurements that spurred the halting of ozone depletion to the coral reef monitoring networks that revealed the devastating impacts of ocean acidification. Yet, the average person remains disconnected from visualizing their lifestyle's impact on Earth's systems, leaving an incomplete perception of our collective footprint. But what transformations might occur if we could observe the full consequences of our consumption patterns as they ripple across forests, oceans, and the atmosphere in real time? In this episode, Nate is joined by Will Marshall, co-founder and CEO of Planet Labs. Planet Labs' mission is to capture daily images and real-time data of the entire Earth using a fleet of hundreds of satellites, in order to make global change visible, accessible and actionable. Will shares how this data is being harnessed to tackle environmental challenges like deforestation and reducing methane emissions, and how AI is analyzing it to help governments, NGOs, and businesses make informed – and planet friendly – decisions. Will also emphasizes Planet Labs' commitment to transparency and accountability on a global scale, ultimately aiming to make substantial contributions to the pursuit of Earth's ecological integrity.  How can we harness this extraordinary technological innovation (and others like it) to better fulfill our roles as planetary stewards? What sorts of environmental projects – such as carbon trading or protecting coral reefs – benefit most from this new data? Finally, how are small communities using this data to create targeted, local environmental strategies that will build ecological wealth for future generations?  (Conversation recorded on March 14th, 2025)   About Will Marshall: Will Marshall is the Co-Founder and CEO of Planet Labs, where he leads the overall company strategy and direction. Prior to Planet, Will was a Scientist at NASA/USRA where he was a systems engineer on lunar orbiter mission “LADEE”, a member of the science team for the lunar impactor mission “LCROSS”, served as Co-Principal Investigator on PhoneSat, and was the technical lead on research projects in space debris remediation. Will received his Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Oxford and his Masters in Physics with Space Science and Technology from the University of Leicester. Will was also a Postdoctoral Fellow at George Washington University and Harvard.   Show Notes and More Watch this video episode on YouTube   Want to learn the broad overview of The Great Simplification in 30 minutes?

Dedicated to Michael DelGiorno — morning radio oracle, culture war whisperer, and the guy who made Chris hit record, via Your Morning Show With Michael DelGiornoThis episode was born out of a single spark: Michael DelGiorno's phrase, “majors as minors and minors as majors.” It hit Chris like a lightning bolt from a morning show in Arlington. What followed is a whirlwind of class politics, party realignment, cultural critique, and affectionate contempt for modern tribalism.

In this episode, we sit down with Bobby Angel, Catholic author, speaker, and mentor, to discuss his latest book, The Postmodern Predicament. This conversation unpacks the challenges of faith, truth, and identity in a world shaped by postmodernism.Bobby explores how the erosion of objective reality and the rise of radical individualism have led to confusion, despair, and a crisis of meaning—especially among young people. Drawing from philosophy, theology, and cultural analysis, he offers a hopeful vision for reclaiming truth, virtue, and a sense of purpose in today's world.

In the first episode of 2025, Mikah and Abrar discuss Meta's plans to add AI bots to their social media platforms, the rise of AI-generated phishing scams, the trend of parents giving their kids retro tech devices to reduce screen time, and the current state and future potential of passkeys for secure logins. Meta plans to populate Facebook and Instagram with AI-generated bot accounts that can create content, share posts, and interact with users, in an effort to drive engagement as user growth stagnates. Abrar and Mikah debate the pros and cons of AI bots on social media. Cybersecurity experts have seen a significant increase in sophisticated phishing scams using AI to generate hyper-personalized messages mimicking people's communication styles, with over 90% of successful cyberattacks now beginning with phishing emails. Abrar and Mikah discuss cybersecurity training and email filtering used by companies to combat this. There's a growing trend of parents gifting their kids retro tech like Walkmans, portable CD players, and MP3 players in an effort to reduce screen time. Mikah and Abrar reflect on the appeal of single-purpose devices and bonding over music. Passkeys, a new login technology aiming to replace passwords, have seen increasing adoption but face usability challenges and inconsistent implementation across sites and devices. Mikah explains how passkeys work and recommends using password managers for now, as both hosts agree passkeys aren't quite ready for mainstream adoption yet.
