Current climate change has been well underway for decades, but the rate of that change is now going up so fast that people are noticing things like tornados and extreme heat waves are occurring in places where they have rarely been seen before. How greenhouse gases from burning fossil fuels, the loss of reflective ice and snow, and other changes are causing the Earth to retain extra heat energy from the Sun.   Also, decades ago, the Los Angeles basin was often cloaked in a thick blanket of choking smog, but today the skies are comparatively clear. This striking improvement was no accident and is a testament to how scientists, government, and engaged citizens can work together to solve difficult environmental problems. UCLA Environmental Law Professor Ann Carlson reflects on that success as described in her 2026 book, Smog and Sunshine: The Surprising Story of How Los Angeles Cleaned Up Its Air.   And one of the national parks you might visit this summer, or any time of year is Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve in Colorado, with the tallest dunes in North America. That's where Living on Earth Explorer in Residence Mark Seth Lender watched the landscape and a local herd of elk as weather came in. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Everyone celebrates the weight GLP-1s take off, almost no one warns you about the volume they quietly pull out of your face and the loose skin you can't train away. The fix depends entirely on the diagnosis, and knowing which category your concern falls into is what saves you time, money, and regret.In this episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon sits down with Dr. Kristy Hamilton, a board-certified plastic surgeon, to discuss:Why rapid GLP-1 weight loss deflates facial volume and creates loose skin and why the leaner and more muscular you get, the more visible that laxity becomesThe muscle-sparing breast augmentation (Preserve) that gets active women back to full training in about a week, and why placing an implant in front of the muscle protects your strengthWhich skin-tightening treatments reset structure (like internal radiofrequency) versus the surface treatments and "expensive coat rack" machines that won't touch real laxityThe real NIH data on breast implant illness and why you don't need a $30,000 detox or to have healthy tissue cut out to get reliefBy the end, you'll know what rapid weight loss really does to your skin, which procedures match which problem, and how to avoid wasting money on fixes that were never going to work for your specific situation.Thank you to our sponsors:Cozy Earth - Go to https://bit.ly/3RLZNEv for up to 20% off!Timeline - Get 20% off your Mitopure order at https://bit.ly/4ptIchfSquare - Get up to $200 off Square hardware when you sign up at https://bit.ly/4gOCfZP #squarepodExplore More from Dr. Gabrielle LyonPremium Podcast Subscription: Ad-free episodes, key takeaway summaries, exclusive Q&A, and behind-the-scenes content https://foreverstrong.supercast.comWeekly newsletter: Recipes, podcast updates, and practical weekly insights https://drgabriellelyon.com/sign-up/Apply to become a patient: Personalized care with Dr. Lyon's clinical team https://drgabriellelyon.com/new-patient-inquiry/Find Dr. Kristy Hamilton at:Website: https://www.drkristyhamilton.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drkristyhamilton/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drkristyhamilton/Connect with Dr. Gabrielle Lyon:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drgabriellelyon/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drgabriellelyonX (Twitter): https://x.com/drgabriellelyonFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/doctorgabriellelyonChapters00:00 - Introduction: GLP-1s and the plastic surgery boom01:53 - The dark side: losing facial volume02:40 - Fat transfers and donor-fat products03:10 - Alloclae and the "zombie" fat06:04 - The Miami Thong Lift explained11:15 - Thong lift vs. BBL recovery13:05 - Pec muscle-sparing breast augmentation15:30 - Behind vs. in front of the muscle20:43 - Silicone vs. saline implants21:39 - Breast implant illness and the NIH data24:16 - Predatory explants and the $30K program31:33 - Implant size and the ballerina breast37:00 - Non-surgical tightening with Quantum RF41:00 - Are you a candidate?

Some of the disciples experience the ultimate “mountain-top” moment. But what are we supposed to do with those moments in our lives? Are we to chase them? Preserve them? Or is there something more?

Have you ever stopped to consider that caring for the land isn't just a homesteading skill, but part of our Christian calling?In this episode of Everyday Homesteading, I'm joined by Brendan McClenahan from Plant With Purpose and the TEND Initiative to explore what the Bible says about stewardship, creation, and why growing food can deepen our faith.For many Christians, conversations about caring for the earth have become complicated. But long before environmental movements existed, God gave humanity the responsibility to cultivate and care for His creation. Together, Brendan and I discuss how homesteading, gardening, and working the land aren't separate from our faith. They're one of the ways we live it out.We also talk about why true self-sufficiency is a myth, how community has always been part of God's design, and practical ways churches and families can reconnect with creation through simple acts like gardening, composting, and supporting local farmers.If you've ever wondered how your faith and your homestead fit together, I think this conversation will encourage you.In this episode, you'll learn:✔ What the Bible says about stewarding God's creation✔ Why Christians shouldn't avoid conversations about creation care✔ How gardening and homesteading can strengthen your faith✔ Why self-sufficiency isn't God's design for His people✔ Practical ways to build community through caring for the landTime Stamps:0:00 – Introduction2:21 – Homestead Kitchen Magazine4:25 – Main TopicResources Mentioned:

Send us a text and chime in!As part of ongoing efforts to reduce wildfire risk and protect the McDowell Sonoran Preserve, the Scottsdale Fire Department is requiring contractors to provide 24-hour advance notice before performing hot work in designated Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) and open space areas. The new Contractor Advisory applies to activities such as welding, cutting, grinding, brazing, and torch-applied roofing. The requirement gives fire personnel advance notice of projects that have the potential to ignite dry vegetation, allowing crews to coordinate with contractors and help reduce the risk of accidental fires.

Also: Local activists say ICE detained two more workers in Lake Placid this week, after 21 were detained last month.

Send us Fan MailBeing named executor is more than a title.

Just imagine a scientist going to the supermarket where he picks up a banana, an antenna from a blue crab and a whisker from a catfish. He takes them back to his lab, hooks them together and connects the whole thing to his computer. He calls it a “bananatrode” and uses it to detect chemicals from the human body called dopamine.While scientists don't actually do that, the scene is not so far-fetched. The crab antenna can detect tiny traces of amino acids in salt water. You see, crabs find their lunch by sensing and tracing down amino acids in the water. The catfish whisker can detect equally small amounts of amino acids in fresh water and they both can do so extremely quickly. Scientists know that these natural sensors work much faster and are more sensitive than man's rather cumbersome methods of laboratory analysis. For that reason they are being seriously studied for human medical use. One such application is a glucose sensor for an artificial pancreas. Oh, and the banana? That was for the scientist's lunch.It is amazing to consider that while the crab and the catfish are pretty low on the evolutionary ladder yet they have these wonderful abilities not even matched by twenty-first century technology. Surely, this is more reasonably evidence of superb design in the beginning by our Creator.Psalm 147:5"Great is our Lord, and of great power; His understanding is infinite."Prayer: Dear Father in heaven, You have filled Your creation with wonderful miracles of design so that men would seek You Who made them all. Preserve me from the pagan sin of putting the creation over You, the Creator. In Jesus' Name. Amen.Ref: Kay Cahill, “Animal Sensors,” OMNI.

One of the most important conditions for progress in one's Dhamma practice and bhavana is harmony in the community one is living in, whether it's the monastic sangha, a lay family, or a work environment. The negative effects of conflicts on our own mind and meditative progress are so severe that it's worthwhile to make major sacrifices to preserve harmony. In particular, letting go of our preferences is often key to reduce conflicts and maintain concord.

Rabbi Lawrence Hajioff takes us on a journey through the entire Jewish timeline, from Adam and Chava in Gan Eden to the destruction of the Beis Hamikdash, the long exile, and the prophecies surrounding the coming of Moshiach. Together with Nachi Gordon, they explore why history unfolds the way it does, what Chazal and the Nevi'im teach about the end of days, the role of Eretz Yisrael, and whether the events unfolding in today's world fit into a much larger picture.   They also tackle some of today's biggest questions: Is there a potential Moshiach alive in every generation? What does Judaism say about Iran, Gog and Magog, artificial intelligence, and the rapid changes shaping our future? Whether you're deeply familiar with these ideas or hearing them for the first time, this conversation challenges you to think differently about Jewish history, current events, and what our generation may be living through.

Divorce Cyberstalking: What to Do If You Think Your Ex Is Watching You OnlineDivorce Crash Course: Don't make expensive divorce mistakes.Our Divorce Crash Course walks you through the biggest legal, financial, emotional, and co-parenting mistakes people make during divorce — and how to avoid them.Typically priced at $150, available now for just $50, thanks to our angel underwriters, Our Family Wizard and Soberlink.Start the course here: https://www.hownottosuckatdivorce.com/divorce-crash-courseCyberstalking during divorce can make you feel unsafe, paranoid, unsteady, and completely overwhelmed.But here's the thing: sometimes what feels “crazy” is actually a real digital safety issue.In this episode of How Not to Suck at Divorce, Andrea Rappaport and Morgan L. Stogsdill are joined by Steven Bradley, a former FBI task force leader, cybersecurity expert, domestic violence specialist, and cyberstalking educator, to talk about what to do if you think your ex is watching, tracking, monitoring, or digitally harassing you during divorce.And yes — this episode is scary.But more importantly, it is actionable.Steven explains that cyberstalking is often easier than people realize because many exes already know your passwords, security question answers, shared devices, family routines, Wi-Fi setup, smart home devices, and personal information. Cyberstalking is not always some dramatic hacker-in-a-hoodie situation. Sometimes it is access to your Amazon Alexa, Ring doorbell, Nest thermostat, pet camera, cloud account, location sharing, shared passwords, or old devices.In other words: your ex may not need to “hack” you if they already have access.Terrifying? Yes. Useful to know? Also yes.In this episode, we cover:How cyberstalking can show up during divorceWhy many people dismiss early warning signs as “coincidences”How smart home devices can be used to monitor or harass someoneWhy shared passwords and security questions are a major riskWhat to do if you think your ex has access to your phone, email, cloud, or devicesWhy you should not delete suspicious messages or evidenceHow to create a timeline of cyberstalking concernsWhen to tell your divorce attorneyWhy co-parenting apps can help protect communicationHow VPNs, multi-factor authentication, and anti-malware tools can helpWhy public Wi-Fi can be riskyWhat parents should know about children's apps, gaming, and DiscordWhy taking action can lower paranoia and help you feel saferFirst signs of cyberstalking during divorceCyberstalking can start small.You may notice:strange text messagesanonymous calls or emailsyour ex showing up where you aresmart home devices acting strangelylights, thermostats, or cameras changing unexpectedlyunfamiliar apps on your phonelogin alertsodd account activitysomeone seeming to know things they should not knowSteven explains that many offenders start with small behaviors and escalate when they feel they can get away with it. That is why it is important not to dismiss everything as coincidence, especially during a high-conflict divorce or custody battle.What to do if you think you are being cyberstalkedSteven's first action step is simple:Do not delete anything.Preserve texts, emails, screenshots, suspicious messages, device alerts, app changes, login warnings, and anything that feels off. Create a timeline. Write down what happened, when it happened, where you were, and what evidence you have.Digital evidence can be time-sensitive, and some data may disappear or overwrite itself. The sooner you document, the better.Tell your divorce attorney earlyIf you believe you may be dealing with cyberstalking, do not wait until it becomes unbearable.Tell your attorney.Morgan explains that divorce lawyers may need outside experts to help connect the dots, preserve evidence, and explain what is happening in a way the court can understand. Cyberstalking can be technical, and many attorneys and judges are not cybersecurity experts.This is not about panicking.It is about protecting yourself, documenting what is happening, and getting the right people involved early.Secure your digital lifeSteven recommends assuming your passwords may be compromised and taking steps to secure your digital life.That may include:changing passwordschanging security questionsturning on multi-factor authenticationreviewing location sharingchecking Life360, Find My, Snap Maps, and similar appsauditing old accountsclosing accounts you no longer useusing anti-malware tools on phones and computersavoiding public Wi-Fi when possibleusing a reputable VPNchecking shared smart home devicesreviewing cloud accessremoving your ex from shared accounts and devicesAnd yes, this includes the things people forget about: Alexa, pet cameras, thermostats, doorbells, old apps, children's devices, shared family accounts, and even old platforms you forgot existed.Friendster, we are looking at you.Why co-parenting apps matterIf communication with your ex feels unsafe, chaotic, manipulative, or digitally risky, this may be a time to talk to your attorney about using a court-monitored co-parenting app.In this episode, Steven and Morgan discuss how a co-parenting app like Our Family Wizard can help keep communication contained, documented, and harder to manipulate.If you are concerned about cyberstalking or digital harassment, talk to your attorney about whether requesting a co-parenting app makes sense in your case.Our Family Wizard:www.ourfamilywizard.com/notsuck20How Not to Suck at Divorce listeners can save 20% off the Essentials package for the first year through our relationship with Our Family Wizard.The biggest takeawayTechnology is not the problem.Stalking, control, and harassment have existed forever. Technology just makes it easier.The goal is not to become paranoid. The goal is to become aware, document what is happening, and take action early.As Andrea says in this episode, doing nothing is often the part that makes you feel crazier. Taking action — documenting, telling your attorney, changing passwords, securing accounts, using a co-parenting app, and asking for help — can help you feel safer and more grounded.If something feels off, do not ignore it.Document it. Tell your attorney. Secure your devices. Get help early.You've got this. And we've got you.Connect with Steven BradleySteven Bradley is a former FBI task force leader, cybersecurity expert, domestic violence specialist, and cyberstalking educator.sbradley@ourfamilywizard.comJoin The How Not to Suck at Divorce CommunityNeed more support during divorce?Join our free private Facebook community for real conversations, support, and guidance from people who understand what you are going through.How Not to Suck at Divorce Community Listen to How Not to Suck at DivorceWebsite: https://www.hownottosuckatdivorce.com/Podcast: https://www.hownottosuckatdivorce.com/podcastDivorce Crash Course: https://www.hownottosuckatdivorce.com/divorce-crash-courseSEO Keywordsdivorce cyberstalking, cyberstalking during divorce, cyberstalking ex, online stalking during divorce, digital safety during divorce, divorce cybersecurity, ex tracking me during divorce, smart home devices divorce, co-parenting app, Our Family Wizard, divorce safety, high conflict divorce, divorce attorney advice, digital harassment divorce, cyber abuse divorce, online harassment divorce, divorce podcast, How Not to Suck at Divorce, Andrea Rappaport, Morgan Stogsdill, Steven BradleyMentioned in this episode:Smarter Way to Sell Your Jewelry After my divorce was finalized, I sold my old engagement ring to a jeweler — and honestly, I was stunned by how little I got for it compared to what it originally cost.

Think about your brewery's story — not the polished version on your website, but the real one. The batch that went sideways at 2 AM. The regular who talked you off a ledge during COVID. The moment you knew this crazy idea might actually work. Those stories? They're probably still just living in someone's head.And here's the thing: memories fade. People move on. If we don't capture these moments, they disappear — and with them, pieces of what makes your brewery special.I want to show you how to preserve your story in ways that actually feel doable. We'll talk about sitting down with your founder or longtime bartender and just listening. Digging through old photos and tap lists. Figuring out which moments matter most before they slip away. And then — this is the important part — how to organize it all so it's not just shoved in a box somewhere.Because your history isn't just sentimental. Breweries that know their story build stronger brands. Staff who understand where you came from stick around longer. Customers feel the difference when there's real depth behind what you're pouring.Whether you've been open six months or sixteen years, you have a story worth telling. This session will give you the prompts, the simple tools, and the encouragement to start capturing it now — then actually use it to strengthen your team, your brand, and your connection to the people who keep coming back.Let's make sure your story doesn't get lost.Tim is a career storyteller: first as a broadcast journalist and news anchor in Seattle and Portland, then as founder of Coin Toss Brewing in Oregon City.

Osvaldo Budet: Upriver DownriverMaitland Regional Art Gallery opens July 11th 2026, opening night 24th July and 25th July a talk and Q & A with Dr Nancy Cushing from University of Newcastle.Puerto Rican Australian artist Osvaldo Budet joins Art Wank to discuss Upriver Downriver, his exhibition at Maitland Regional Art Gallery exploring one of the Hunter region's most debated public monuments: Maitland's Black Boy statue, now more commonly referred to as Jocko Graves.For more than a century, the cast iron figure has stood in the centre of Maitland's civic life. Celebrated by some as a beloved local landmark and questioned by others for its racial imagery and colonial associations, the statue has become a focal point for conversations about history, memory, race, and heritage.Budet's work is informed by his experience growing up in Borikén, Puerto Rico, a place still shaped by colonial structures and histories. In Upriver Downriver, he considers how inherited images and public monuments continue to shape contemporary understandings of identity, authority, and belonging. Rather than offering simple answers, the exhibition asks how communities engage with historical objects whose meanings shift over time.This conversation explores the power of monuments, the persistence of colonial narratives in public space, and the ways artists can help us reimagine our relationships with difficult histories.Osvaldo Budet (b. 1979) is a Puerto Rican artist whose multidisciplinary practice spans painting, drawing, photography, video, and research based projects. His work examines the physical, historical, and political dimensions of colonisation and post colonisation, exploring how systems of power shape culture, identity, and memory.Budet received a Master of Fine Arts in Painting from the Maryland Institute College of Art, where he studied under Grace Hartigan. Since 2008, he has lived and worked across Puerto Rico, Germany, the United States, and Australia. His work has been exhibited internationally, including at the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Puerto Rico, Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico, me Collectors Room Berlin, the Museum of Latin American Art, and numerous galleries and institutions throughout Europe, the Americas, and Australia.Through Upriver Downriver, Budet brings a global perspective on colonialism, representation, and historical memory to a distinctly local Australian story, inviting audiences to consider how we preserve, reinterpret, and reckon with the complex objects of our past.

Are you working yourself to exhaustion trying to preserve every possible food for your pantry? I used to think a successful pantry meant recreating the grocery store at home. But after more than 20 years of homesteading, I've learned that's one of the fastest ways to burn out.In this video, I'm sharing the mindset shift that completely changed the way I preserve food. Instead of asking, "What do I want to eat?" I started asking, "What preserves well?" That one simple change has saved me countless hours while helping me build a pantry that's practical, resilient, and full of nourishing food my family actually uses.In this episode, you'll learn:✔ Why treating your pantry like a grocery store leads to unnecessary work and burnout✔ The foods I make a priority to preserve every year✔ How root cellaring and fermentation can dramatically reduce your preserving workload✔ When it's actually smarter to buy food that's already preserved✔ How to build a seasonal pantry that saves time, money, and effort⏰ Time Stamps0:00 - Introduction1:24 - Azure Standard4:47 - Main Topic

View the Show Notes Page for This Episode Become a Member to Receive Exclusive Content Sign Up to Receive Peter's Weekly Newsletter In this "Ask Me Anything" (AMA) episode, Peter explores the effects of GLP-1 receptor agonists—including drugs such as Ozempic, Wegovy, and Zepbound—with a particular focus on their impact on muscle. He examines how much lean mass people actually lose during treatment and how those changes compare to weight loss achieved through other methods, while explaining why measurements of lean mass on DEXA scans can sometimes be misleading. Peter discusses the effects of these medications on bone mass, fracture risk, strength, and physical function, highlighting why functional outcomes may be more important than body composition metrics alone. He also explores how GLP-1–based therapies affect different fat depots throughout the body, identifies who may be most vulnerable to muscle loss, and outlines practical strategies for preserving muscle and bone health while using these medications. Finally, Peter reviews early insights into retatrutide, a next-generation weight-loss therapy, including what current evidence suggests about its effects on weight loss and muscle mass.

We discuss: The evolution of GLP-1 receptor agonists from diabetes drugs to breakthrough weight-loss therapies [1:45]; Early concerns about lean mass loss with GLP-1 receptor agonists and the limitations of clinical trial data [3:45]; How newer research has changed the understanding of lean mass loss on GLP-1 receptor agonists and why DEXA measurements can misrepresent muscle loss [6:15]; Comparing lean mass loss across semaglutide, tirzepatide, and traditional weight-loss interventions [10:30]; Comparing lean mass loss from GLP-1 receptor agonists with bariatric surgery, and whether these drugs cause muscle loss beyond normal expectations from substantial weight loss [13:15]; The limited evidence regarding the timing of lean mass loss during GLP-1 therapy and the implications for exercise and nutrition strategies [16:00]; Body composition changes after stopping GLP-1 receptor agonists: weight regain, fat regain, and lean mass recovery [17:45]; Why lean mass measurements are an imperfect proxy for muscle health and function [21:45]; The effects of GLP-1 receptor agonists on bone mineral density, fracture risk, and the importance of resistance training [23:00]; Do GLP-1 receptor agonists directly cause muscle loss or simply mimic the effects of calorie restriction? [26:00]; Why strength and physical function often improve despite lean mass loss on GLP-1 receptor agonists [28:00]; Who is most at risk for lean mass loss during GLP-1–induced weight loss? [34:45]; Intramuscular fat (IMAT), DEXA limitations, and the challenge of measuring true muscle loss [37:00]; Preserving muscle while losing weight: resistance training, protein intake, and emerging research on preserving muscle during GLP-1–induced weight loss [39:00]; Resistance-training principles for preserving lean mass during GLP-1–induced weight loss [43:45]; Managing side effects and prioritizing protein intake while training on GLP-1 receptor agonists [46:15]; Retatrutide: early evidence on its effects on weight loss, lean mass, and muscle function, as well as the limitations of the data being collected in ongoing clinical trials [48:00]; The risks of using gray-market retatrutide before FDA approval [52:15]; Key takeaways [54:30]; and More.

What does it really look like to manage a large homestead garden? In this episode of Everyday Homesteading, I'm joined by my oldest daughter, Rachel, who has taken over management of our main crop garden this year. We sit down for a candid conversation about what's working, what we're learning, and a few garden bloopers that prove even experienced gardeners don't always get it right!Rachel shares what it means to be responsible for a garden without having to do all the labor herself, how we're involving younger children in the garden, and some of the systems we're putting in place to make gardening easier and more sustainable year after year.We also talk about sprinkler timers, compost surprises, cats in freshly planted beds, and Rachel's best advice for both new and experienced gardeners.In this episode, we cover:

Protein-sparing modified fasting (PSMF) has been used for decades as one of the most effective evidence-based approaches for rapid fat loss while preserving lean muscle. But how does it actually work, and who is it best suited for? Check out the Protein-Sparing Modified Fasting Library at ketogenicgirl.com and use code VANESSA for 20% off. In this episode, Vanessa sits down with returning guest Dr. David Jockers to explore the science behind PSMF, why prioritizing protein changes everything during a calorie deficit, and how this approach differs from traditional fasting, keto, and fasting-mimicking diets. They discuss ketosis, satiety, autophagy, resistance training, meal structure, protein targets, refeeding strategies, and the lifestyle habits that make rapid fat loss both more effective and more sustainable. If your goal is fat loss without sacrificing muscle, this episode provides a practical, science-backed roadmap to implementing protein-sparing modified fasting safely and effectively. In This Episode What protein-sparing modified fasting (PSMF) is How PSMF differs from fasting, keto, and fasting-mimicking diets Why high protein supports muscle preservation during fat loss How ketosis and protein work together to reduce hunger The connection between PSMF, autophagy, and metabolic health Protein, fat, and carbohydrate targets for PSMF days The best foods to prioritize for successful PSMF Meal timing and intermittent fasting considerations Why resistance training is essential for preserving lean mass Hydration, electrolytes, sleep, and recovery strategies Refeeding after PSMF and avoiding rebound weight gain Who should—and shouldn't—use this approach Common mistakes that limit fat loss success Resources The PSMF Library is officially live

A Note from James:Mark Pincus is one of the true OGs of the internet. You probably know him as the founder of Zynga, the company behind FarmVille, Zynga Poker, and Words With Friends. Zynga was eventually acquired by Take-Two in a transaction valued at approximately $12.7 billion. Before Zynga, Mark started Tribe, one of the first social networks—before MySpace and Facebook. He has spent more than 25 years building, failing, and studying what gets millions of people to click, play, share, and come back. His new book, Life at the Speed of Play, inspired me to start coming up with new business ideas while we were still recording.What I really love is how Mark teaches people to copy like a master without looking like a copycat. He has a framework called “Proven–Better–New.” Start with something that has already been proven. Make it obviously better. Then isolate the new idea you want to test. It's one of the best systems I've heard for creating products people actually want.We talk about the early days of Facebook and MySpace, the failure of Tribe, the gaming industry, consumer psychology, AI coding, and how agents could eventually network and work for us while we're doing something else.I loved talking with Mark. I was still thinking about this conversation afterward—and I'm literally building businesses based on what I learned. His new book is called Life at the Speed of Play. Listen to this episode, and then read the book.Episode Description:Most founders begin with an idea and then spend months—or years—trying to prove that people want it. Mark Pincus thinks that process is backward.At Zynga, Mark's teams built “failure machines”: simple systems that allowed them to test hundreds of concepts before writing the code. They put unfinished ideas in front of real users, watched what people clicked, and refused to build anything until the demand was obvious. The objective wasn't to avoid failure. It was to make failure fast, cheap, and useful.Mark explains the framework behind that process: Proven–Better–New. First, study an existing success down to every screen, click, and design decision. Then identify one improvement that current users would immediately recognize as better. Only after that should a team add the unproven idea—the part most likely to fail.James and Mark also examine the problems facing today's consumer entrepreneurs. AI has made software easier to build, but distribution has become harder. People aren't searching for new apps, established platforms restrict organic growth, and algorithmic reach isn't the same as users actively sharing something with friends.Mark uses the failure of his early social network, Tribe, to explain why virality is not enough. Tribe grew quickly but lacked retention and trust. He ignored the communities users loved because they didn't match the business model he had already chosen. That painful mistake became the foundation for much of his later product philosophy.The conversation ends with Mark's current experiments: personal AI agents modeled after members of his family, a proposed work network built specifically for agents, an enterprise AI company called Hivemind, and the difficult decision to end a four-year passion project without abandoning the instinct behind it.This is a practical conversation about testing ideas, separating instinct from ego, learning from the past, and killing the wrong product before it consumes the right opportunity.What You'll Learn:How to build a failure machine: Test headlines, offers, videos, and fake doors before investing in a finished product.How to apply Proven–Better–New: Begin with a proven behavior, make one unmistakable improvement, and isolate the risky innovation.Why distribution is now harder than development: AI can generate a prototype quickly, but it cannot guarantee attention, trust, or adoption.Why Tribe failed despite rapid growth: Virality without retention, safety, and alignment with user behavior does not create a lasting network.How to copy without becoming a copycat: Study successful products at the pixel level, preserve what works, and innovate only where it matters.When to abandon an idea: Preserve the underlying instinct, but stop funding the particular expression of it when the evidence turns against you.How AI agents may change networking: Agents could eventually search for opportunities, exchange work, build reputations, and bring useful leads back to their users.Timestamped Chapters: [02:00] Finding the “OMFG” Moment [02:58] A Note from James [05:00] Build a Failure Machine Before Building a Product [06:25] Testing Demand With Fake Doors and Broken Links [08:08] Writing Copy That People Actually Notice [10:52] Test More Ideas in a Week Than the Industry Tests in a Year [11:53] Why Neglected Products Become Innovation Labs [13:26] How Mobile Apps Slowed Product Experimentation [15:09] Can AI Bring Rapid Testing Back?
