If you're entering perimenopause and suddenly noticing more abdominal fat, higher cholesterol, poorer sleep or increased anxiety, you're not imagining it. In this episode, I'm joined by Professor Sarah Berry to unpack what actually changes in women's cardiometabolic health during the menopause transition We explore why premenopausal women are often metabolically protected compared to men, what shifts during perimenopause, and how declining estrogen impacts fat distribution, blood glucose control, inflammation and cholesterol. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN • Why cardiometabolic health often worsens during perimenopause • When visceral fat redistribution typically begins • The role of estrogen in fat storage, cholesterol and inflammation • Whether hormone therapy protects against abdominal fat gain • How glucose dips can drive an extra 300+ calories per day • What ApoB really means and why it matters beyond LDL • The truth about seed oils, saturated fat and cardiovascular risk • Why soy isoflavones work for some women but not others • How replacing typical snacks with almonds predicted a 30% drop in cardiovascular risk TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Intro: Why Cardiometabolic Risk Increases During Perimenopause 05:01 Does Hormone Therapy Protect Against Visceral Fat & Cholesterol Changes? 13:42 How to Improve Your Gut Microbiome through Diet 19:01 Why Belly Fat Increases in Perimenopause (Estrogen, Hunger & Blood Sugar) 27:39 Saturated Fat Explained: Butter vs Yogurt & The Food Matrix 45:31 Eating Speed, Late-Night Meals & Metabolic Health in Midlife VALUABLE RESOURCES • Take the BioSyncing Quiz to help you understand what's actually happening in your body — and how to fix it.

https://teachhoops.com/ In the era of "Moneyball" basketball, it is easy to get buried under a mountain of data. However, for most high school and youth coaches, "Actionable Analytics" are the only ones that matter. You don't need a Ph.D. in statistics; you need to track the four or five metrics that have the highest correlation with winning. The "Granddaddy" of these is Effective Field Goal Percentage ($eFG%$). Unlike standard field goal percentage, $eFG%$ accounts for the fact that a three-point shot is worth 50% more than a two-point shot. If your team shoots 40% from three, your $eFG%$ is 60%—the same as shooting 60% from two. By tracking this, you can objectively prove to your players why "rhythm threes" and "rim finishes" are the lifeblood of your offense. Beyond shooting, you must master the "Four Factors" of Basketball Success, originally popularized by Dean Oliver. These four metrics typically account for about 95% of the variance in winning: Shooting ($eFG%$) – The most important factor (40% weight). Turnovers (TO%) – How often you give the ball away without a shot (25% weight). Rebounding (ORB%) – How many of your own misses you recover (20% weight). Free Throws (FT Rate) – How often you get to the line and make them (15% weight). If you "win" three out of these four categories in a game, your win probability is over 80%. In the mid-season January grind, use these factors to "Diagnose the Disease." If you are losing games despite shooting well, look at your TO%. Are you "beating yourselves" before the ball even hits the rim? Finally, don't ignore the "Culture Analytics" or "Hustle Stats." These are the metrics that don't always show up in a standard box score but drive your program's "Internal Engine." Track things like "Kills" (three consecutive defensive stops), Deflections, and "Paint Touches." A "Paint Touch"—whether via post-up or dribble drive—is one of the highest predictors of offensive efficiency because it collapses the defense and creates "Long-Closeout" opportunities for your shooters. Use your TeachHoops member calls to "audit" your stat-keeping: are you tracking "fluff," or are you tracking the behaviors that lead to "The W"? By turning the "invisible" into the "visible," you create a data-driven culture of accountability.

Mea Cupla is honored to welcome back our friend, Norm Eisen. There's pretty much nothing going on in politics today that he doesn't have an opinion about. His latest book, "Overcoming Trumpery” is a great read, especially as we gear up for the midterms and watch Republican candidates try to mimic Trumpian tactics to get elected. Eisen is a CNN Legal Analyst.  And the founder and executive chair of “States United Democracy Center”, a nonpartisan organization advancing free, fair, and secure elections. Eisen served as special counsel to President Barack Obama on ethics and government reform. In that role, he was dubbed “Mr. No” and the “Ethics Czar” because he's well known for his tough anti-corruption approach to governance.

In this episode we discuss a litners email where he asks about “the day and the hour” quote attributed to Joseph Smith and how some YouTube voices use it to fuel end times certainty. Gerrit breaks down why this kind of content deserves real skepticism: source quality matters, corroboration matters, and the Joseph Smith Papers exist for a reason. He explains how cherry picked, poorly sourced, or context free quotes can create anxiety, drive clicks, and worst of all, set people up for spiritual whiplash when predictions fail.  We had a couple of spots open up on our Standard of Truth Tour to Missouri/Illinois.

Darshan H. Brahmbhatt, Podcast Editor of JACC: Advances, discusses a recently published original research paper on Risk Score Development to Predict Postpartum Cardiovascular Disease Incorporating Pregnancy and Nonpregnancy Factors: A Canada-Wide Study.

The surgeon who spent 12 to14 hours a day in the operating room developed diabetes, uncontrolled high blood pressure, and an autoimmune disease that was eating away at his skull and it forced him to confront what medical school never taught him about actually staying healthy. I sat down with Dr. Darshan Shah, board-certified surgeon, founder of Next Health (one of the largest longevity clinic networks in America), and a doctor who had to reverse his own chronic disease to understand the massive gap between Western medicine and the science of health. We explore why surgeons and physicians become some of the sickest people in healthcare, how functional medicine differs from what you learn in medical school, why biomarker testing matters more than your doctor's "you're fine" assessment, and what root cause medicine actually looks like in practice. Dr. Shah also breaks down the AI revolution happening in cardiovascular imaging with Cleerly scans, how his new AI health dashboard reads your bloodwork and medical records to give you proactive guidance, why Yamanaka factors could regenerate damaged nerves in the brain, and what the future of personalized, preventive medicine looks like when you combine AI with real biological data.

What if almost nothing at the NFL Combine actually predicts success? Ryan went deep into the data — correlating height, weight, 40 time, vertical, bench, broad jump, shuttle, and three-cone results against NFL career value scores — and the results are humbling. Almost every metric across every position lands squarely in the "noise" category. But what emerged from the frustration is a powerful new way to think about prospect evaluation. Position-by-position correlation breakdown reveals almost zero signal in any individual combine drill, with the 40-yard dash showing some of the weakest predictive value of all Surprising inverse correlations: why slower 40 times, lower verticals, and weaker bench numbers sometimes trend with more successful players — and what that actually means The offensive tackle vertical jump mystery: a negative .314 correlation that challenges everything we assume about explosiveness Ryan introduces the "Craftsman vs. Weapon" framework — why how a player uses their physical tools matters far more than the tools themselves, and how to think about "buckets" when evaluating prospects at the Combine Stop chasing the shiny 40 time and start asking the real question: can this player actually use what he's got?

Let's not beat around the bush: the biggest news in the world is the arrest of Andrew, the King's brother. It's huge, not least because the last time a royal was arrested was around 350 years ago, when Charles I was taken prisoner and ultimately executed. What also makes this so significant is that Andrew wasn't, as is usually the case with celebrities, politely asked to come into a police station to assist with inquiries. He was arrested at his home, which was then searched by police for further evidence. That distinction is massive. That said, anyone predicting either the collapse or the survival of the royal family today is being premature — and there's plenty of that going on. The charge Andrew faces, misconduct in public office, is apparently very difficult to prove in the UK because of the way the law is written. So this may end up going nowhere. So far, I'd say Charles has handled both today's developments and the wider scandal leading up to them far more decisively than even the late Queen handled Andrew's previous indiscretions, and that does help the monarchy. Most importantly, the key figures in the royal family — William, Kate and their children — seem far enough removed from anything Andrew may have done to remain safe from fallout. On the other hand, what's happened today is only the beginning. Next may come formal charges, then potentially a prosecution, then possibly a judge and jury. If it gets that far, the risk to the royal family increases dramatically, because it could reveal who knew what about Andrew's behaviour, and for how long. If you're looking for a silver lining, it's this: the system is working. No one is above the law — not even the brother of the King. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today I have the immense pleasure of talking with Carissa Véliz, an associate professor at the University of Oxford, about her new book, Prophecy: Prediction, Power, and the Fight for the Future—from Ancient Oracles to AI.  Linking this work to her previous book, Privacy is Power: Why and How You Should Take Back Control of Your Data, Véliz writes: “ surveillance and prediction are digital technology's original sins.”In our wide-ranging discussion, we talk about how both massive and intrusive invasions of privacy at all levels of society and false claims to be able to predict the future erode democracy, are corrosive to ethics, and undermine people's ability to think for themselves.  Instead, we are conditioned to trust an unregulated band of “effective altruists” who claim to know better than we what kinds of lives we should prefer and the choices we should make.  Véliz argues instead that we should embrace the uncertain to build resilience, to prepare for contingency but not be determined by what we cannot see, and to foster curiosity and imagination.Carissa Véliz is an Associate Professor in Philosophy at the Institute for Ethics in AI, and a Fellow at Hertford College at the University of Oxford. She is the recipient of the 2021 Herbert A. Simon Award for Outstanding Research in Computing and Philosophy. She is a member of UNESCO's Women 4 Ethical AI. She advises companies and policymakers around the world on privacy and the ethics of AI. She is a board member of the Proton Foundation, along with Sir Tim Berners-Lee and Proton's CEO Andy Yen. She is the author of the highly-acclaimed Privacy Is Power (an Economist book of the year, 2020) and the editor of the Oxford Handbook of Digital Ethics.

Feeling lost in your career? Questioning your life direction? So many of us spend our 20s and 30s chasing the job titles we're told we “should” have, lofty income goals, or status, only to end up feeling disconnected, unfulfilled, and like we've sold our soul along the way.What if the answer to career clarity and job satisfaction isn't ahead of you… it's behind you?Research shows that people whose adult careers align with their early interests experience higher job satisfaction, better income, and greater educational attainment. If you loved writing, building, organizing, performing, asking questions, leading groups, solving problems, or creating things as a kid, those patterns can still guide what feels meaningful and easeful in adulthood.So in today's episode, we explore how your childhood interests and your true nature as a kid can offer clues for what will bring you long-term career fulfillment — and why reconnecting with who you were as a child is an evidence-based career strategy.Tune in to hear about:Why so many adults feel lost or misaligned in their careersThe disconnect between societal expectations and your authentic selfHow your childhood “essence” reveals your natural strengthsPrompts to uncover your core natureThe new research linking childhood interests to adult job satisfactionHow interests are often more stable than personality traitsHolland's RIASEC career theory in the 6 interest categoriesHow to use your younger self as a practical career compassFor advertising and sponsorship inquiries, please contact Frequency Podcast Network.

Most teams are capable of far more than they are currently giving, but the gap is rarely about effort or attitude. Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete break down why discretionary energy is the true driver of performance and how leaders unintentionally suppress it by failing to connect people to the business model. When team members understand how their daily work influences revenue, profit, and opportunity, alignment replaces compliance and energy rises naturally. By shifting focus from motivation to measurement, leaders gain a clear framework for evaluating managers, strengthening team capacity, and creating sustainable growth without burnout.In This Episode You Will:Identify where discretionary energy is being lost inside the teamRecognize which people metrics reveal leadership effectivenessSee how manager performance shows up through team resultsEvaluate when team capacity is approaching a breaking pointApply clearer financial alignment to increase focus and engagement Episode Highlights01:33 - Discretionary energy is introduced as the hidden gear inside every team member that leadership either activates through alignment or suppresses through misalignment.02:19 - Financial alignment is framed as the missing link between daily responsibilities, revenue, profit, and why team members should care about business performance.03:17 - The four requirements of a world-class team are clarified as right people, right seats, right work, done the right way.04:46 - Employee stickmo begins, revealing how long A players actually stay and how turnover often exposes management or cultural breakdowns.06:38 - Employee net promoter score is introduced as a leadership diagnostic measuring whether team members would enthusiastically refer others to work in the organization.09:39 - Internal patient referrals from staff are positioned as a real-time indicator of engagement, belief, and cultural buy-in.12:22 - Direct report goals completed is identified as the most powerful KPI for evaluating manager effectiveness and team performance.13:26 - The 80 percent goal completion standard is defined as the benchmark for healthy management and accountability.14:43 - Labor cost begins as a COO-owned metric directly tied to profitability, cost of services delivered, and operational stewardship.17:03 - Revenue per employee is introduced as the key indicator for identifying $250,000 growth breakpoints before capacity strain causes the business to stall or break. Resources MentionedLearn more about the TRP Remarkable Business Immersion March 6 - 7, 2026 in Phoenix, AZ and March 20 - 21, 2026 in Brisbane, AUS - https://theremarkablepractice.com/upcoming-events/  To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceoBook a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPCPrefer to watch?

The best-selling compact camera in Japan is from... Kodak? We've talked about compact cameras in the past, but it remains a fascinating part of the photo marketplace as people look for something different than mirrorless and DSLR cameras.

This is AI x Multilateralism, a playlist of conversations at the Commons, our space at the UN Library & Archives Geneva for sharing knowledge on multilateralism. In this series, we're joined by experts who help us unpack the many ideas and issues at the nexus of AI and international cooperation.   In this episode we ask: can AI help us better predict, respond to, and recover from crises? We're joined by Dr. Martin Waehlisch, Associate Professor of Transformative Technologies, Innovation and Global Affairs at the University of Birmingham. He's also part of the Research Team of the Crisis Computing Project, a global community of scholars and practitioners who are driven to put computation to better use.     He shares: what drives his teaching today on transformative technologies, and why he prefers the term “computational global affairs” to “international affairs” in today's world what exactly crisis computing means, and the kinds of crises he hopes that AI can help us to address, from complex climate prediction to public participation in decision-making the potential of crisis computing at the local, regional and multilateral level, and his thoughts on how crisis computing can be addressed as part of the UN's Global Dialogue on AI and the Independent International Scientific Panel on AI, both established by the UN General Assembly in 2025, and what is still missing in the global debate when it comes to how we use AI individually and collectively.  Resources mentioned:  The Crisis Computing Project: https://crisiscomputing.org/   The Peace and Security Data Hub : https://psdata.un.org/   The Complex Risk Analytics Fund (CRAF'd): https://crafd.io/ and the Humanitarian Data Exchange: https://data.humdata.org/   Production:    Guest: Dr. Martin Waehlisch  Host, production and editing: Natalie Alexander Julien  Podcast Music credits: Sequence: https://uppbeat.io/track/img/sequence Music from Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/img/sequence License code: 6ZFT9GJWASPTQZL0 Recorded & produced at the Commons, United Nations Library & Archives Geneva  #AI #Multilateralism #CrisisComputing #CrisisResponse

Rich, Garret, and Matt reveal the statistical thresholds that separate dynasty hits from busts across all four positions. Garret breaks down years of historical data to show exactly which benchmarks predict long term success, and the numbers are shockingly consistent. Quarterbacks who hit 17 points per game in their first two seasons become franchise cornerstones 67% of the time, while running backs without 30 receptions in their first two years have under a 5% success rate. The data gets even more brutal for wide receivers. First round wide receivers who fail to reach 500 yards as rookies almost never recover, with only four outliers since 2010. Travis Hunter managed just 300 yards with injury issues, while Matthew Golden didn't reach the mark either despite staying healthy all season. The crew debates whether to sell now for 70 cents on the dollar before values crater completely. Meanwhile, Jaxson Dart already cleared the 17 PPG quarterback threshold at 17.3, while Cam Ward fell short at 11 despite second half improvements. Rookie tight ends Tyler Warren and Harold Fannin both finished top six, joining the elite club that includes only Kelce, Kittle, and Gronkowski. The data suggests these aren't just guidelines but predictive indicators dynasty managers should treat as gospel when making trades. 00:00:00 Start 00:04:23 Important QB Stats 00:23:53 Important RB Stats 00:33:57 FastDraft 00:37:07 FFPC 00:38:39 Important WR Stats 00:48:06 Important TE Stats Learn more about your ad choices.

What is the single most powerful indicator that a founder will succeed? According to Ben Savage, it isn't just a great product or a massive market—it's the "Compete Test". When a seasoned investor looks at a founder and realizes, “That's not somebody I want to compete with,” they know they've found a winner.In this episode of Demo Day, we sit down with Ben Savage, Partner at Clocktower Technology Ventures, to demystify the internal frameworks used by top VCs to evaluate talent and risk. With over 13 years at Clocktower, Ben shares his deep expertise in the "Foundational Economy"—investing in FinTech, energy, and industrials.Key TakeawaysThe "Unbeatable" Founder: Why the best indicator of success is being a person that others are afraid to go up against in the market.The 4-Part Investment Framework: How Clocktower evaluates every deal based on Founder Quality, Narrative Quality, Fit, and Value.Investor vs. Operator: Why "making the donuts" is fundamentally different from coaching from the sidelines, and why you must choose a spike.The "I" vs. "We" Red Flag: How small shifts in vocabulary reveal a founder's true ability to build a world-class team and culture.Navigating the AI Disruption: Why founders today must either lead with an AI-centric strategy or risk being disrupted at an accelerating pace.The Power of Simplicity: Why the best investment decisions often come from cutting through complexity to the "dumb" or obvious version of a story.Ben also opens up about the "lonely journey" of entrepreneurship and why radical vulnerability is a superpower for building long-term partnerships.

This past weekend, Winter Storm Fern struck the States. Sleet, snow and ice battered Americans all the way from New Mexico to New York. Scientists predicted its arrival in mid-January, and in anticipation of the storm, more than 20 state governors issued emergency declarations. But how did scientists know so much, so early, about the approaching storm? NPR climate reporter Rebecca Hersher says it has to do with our weather models… and the data we put into them. Which begs the question: Will we continue to invest in them?Interested in more science behind the weather?

In this What's Working in Ag segment, we highlight a growing trend we're seeing across agriculture heading into 2026: farmers investing in skills instead of opinions.Agris Academy is hosting a 2026 Winter Workshop on Merchandising and Futures Risk Management on February 19th in Baltic, South Dakota, with both in-person and online options available. What makes this workshop stand out is what it doesn't promise.This session focuses on:Teaching real merchandising skills farmers can use immediatelySharing practical “tricks of the trade” from professional risk managersHelping producers build repeatable systems, not one-off tradesCreating skills that become a permanent asset to a farm or businessWhat it won't do:Predict market directionPush trading strategiesReact to daily headlinesIn a year where volatility, tight margins, and uncertainty continue to dominate agriculture, farmers are realizing that better decisions come from better understanding — not better guesses.This short segment explains why educational workshops like this are gaining momentum, why farmers are choosing to attend in person, and how developing merchandising discipline can change how farms manage risk long-term.

What if the way we think, communicate, react under pressure, and connect with others isn't random at all? And much of your experience could actually be decoded using a very specific behavioral model. And this model could explain why certain conversations energize you while others shut you down, why stress brings out patterns you don't recognize, and why people who care about each other still miss each other completely. In this episode, we introduce the Process Communication Model, a powerful framework originally developed in a therapeutic setting to improve human connection and outcomes. It has been used quietly for decades, helping millions of people better understand themselves and others, yet many people have never heard of it. This is part one in a three part series.
