What if stress is less about how busy your life looks and more about whether your body believes it has enough energy to meet what is being asked of it?Marek Doyle joins Jonny to unpack his framework of “energy security”: the relationship between the resources available to the body and the demands it expects to face. He explains why a manageable gap may produce sympathetic mobilization, while a gap that feels impossible to bridge may lead to a parasympathetic stress response often described as freeze or functional shutdown.They explore why a healing protocol can work beautifully for one person and do nothing for another, why improving energy availability can briefly make someone feel worse, and why a high HRV score is not automatically a sign of resilience. The conversation also covers embodied safety, secondary stress, metabolic dysfunction, breathwork and how to run more useful self-experiments without blindly chasing a number.You can expect to learn:- Why Marek became interested in people who did not respond to supposedly reliable health protocols- How energy security describes the gap between available resources and perceived demands- The difference between sympathetic mobilization and parasympathetic stress- Why coming out of freeze can initially feel like increased anxiety or activation- How Marek reads HRV as one clue within a larger clinical picture- Why a high HRV reading can sometimes be misinterpreted- How safety, prediction, parts work and phobias shape protective responses- Why “anxiety about anxiety” can magnify the original stressor- How chronic stress and metabolic dysfunction can reinforce one another- Why rest, breathwork and somatic practices do not land the same way for every nervous system- How to think in principles and experiments instead of universal protocolsABOUT MAREKMarek Doyle is a functional nutritional therapist and breathwork practitioner with more than 20 years of clinical experience. His work focuses on complex cases where standard protocols have failed, combining personalised nutrition, laboratory testing and a systems-level view of stress physiology.CONNECT WITH MAREK- Marek's website: https://www.marekdoyle.com/- Energy security, parasympathetic stress and mobilization: https://www.marekdoyle.com/?p=48061- Using HRV to measure stress: https://www.marekdoyle.com/using-hrv-to-measure-stress/- Health & Humanity: https://marekdoyle.substack.com/- Marek on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/marek.doyle- Lucid Labs: https://www.lucidlabs.health/EXPLORE MORE FROM JONNY- Follow Jonny on X: https://twitter.com/jonnym1ller- Nervous System Mastery: https://nsmastery.com/- Stateshift: https://stateshift.app/- Take the free Nervous System Quotient self-assessment: https://assessment.nsmastery.com/- Subscribe to The Inner Frontier newsletter: https://ch.kit.com/f2ecbf5169CHAPTERS00:00 Nervous System Mastery01:40 Welcome and why reliable protocols fail some people08:40 What Marek means by energy security16:47 Reading HRV in context23:17 Moving from freeze into mobilization25:27 Embodied safety and the predictive nervous system28:35 Rehabilitating cortisol's reputation35:48 Parts work, phobias and protective responses39:13 Primary stress and secondary stress41:10 Why transitions between nervous-system states can feel rough45:48 Practical ways to investigate energy security53:48 The loop between chronic stress and metabolic dysfunction65:21 What can meaningfully change HRV?75:14 The healing state and the limits of protocols77:27 Why deep rest may require feeling what was avoided83:31 Where to learn more from Marek
Following the death of long-serving U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham, South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster appointed the late senator's sister, interim Senator Darline Graham, to fill the vacancy. Now running to complete the term, she faces Congressman Ralph Norman in a high-stakes Republican primary runoff. Former Congressman, former federal prosecutor, and host of The Trey Gowdy Podcast, Trey Gowdy joins the Rundown to discuss why major endorsements from President Donald Trump and Senator Tim Scott give Darline Graham a key advantage, how regional turnout between the Upstate and the Coast will shape the race, and what this competitive primary signals for South Carolina voters.

Politics is becoming a major factor in the search for love, with dating app users increasingly looking for partners who share their political beliefs.

Psychotherapist Jonathan Alpert joins the Rundown to break down his recent FOX News op-ed on why casting a vote isn't a proxy for character, and shares practical advice on how to stop vilifying the political aisle and reconnect on shared values, hobbies, and real-life compatibility.

Watch the video and share your thoughts in the Zion Lab community Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community Highlights The conversation focuses on the unique challenges and cultural dynamics faced by mid-singles in the Latter-day Saint community, particularly in Utah, and how leaders can better support this demographic. Key Insights Cultural Dynamics: Mid-singles often feel disconnected in family wards due to the predominance of married members in leadership roles, leading to feelings of exclusion and instability. Out-of-Unit Members: Many mid-singles attend their neighborhood wards while also participating in mid-singles wards, creating a challenge for leaders to maintain engagement and consistency. Family Influence: Family obligations can pull mid-singles away from ward activities, making it difficult for them to build connections within their ward family. Spiritual Focus: Rob emphasizes that the primary role of leaders is to connect members with Christ, rather than solely focusing on helping them get married. Meaningful Activities: Activities should be Christ-centered and relevant to the members’ lives, fostering a sense of community and belonging. Leadership Applications Encourage Engagement: Leaders should create an environment where mid-singles feel valued and included, recognizing their unique challenges and encouraging them to participate in ward activities. Foster Connections: Leaders can facilitate opportunities for mid-singles to connect with each other and with Christ through intentional, spiritually uplifting activities that focus on attributes of Jesus Christ. Communicate with Families: Leaders should engage with the families of mid-singles to help them understand the importance of allowing their loved ones the space to build their own lives and relationships within the ward community. 00:02:30 – Cultural Dynamics in Mid-Singles Wards 00:04:00 – Understanding the Mid-Singles Experience 00:04:30 – Interview with Bishop Robert Cornilles Begins 00:05:00 – Bishop Cornilles’s Calling Story 00:07:00 – Formation of the New Mid-Singles Ward 00:08:30 – Challenges of Serving a Mid-Singles Ward 00:10:00 – Selecting Counselors for the Bishopric 00:12:00 – Current Responsibilities as a Bishop 00:13:00 – Mid-Singles Bishops Councils in Utah 00:15:00 – The Need for Mid-Singles Wards 00:16:00 – Cultural Challenges for Mid-Singles 00:20:00 – Navigating Family Dynamics and Church Involvement 00:22:00 – The Dilemma of Out-of-Unit Members 00:25:00 – Building a Strong Ward Culture 00:28:00 – Encouraging Engagement in the Ward 00:30:00 – The Importance of Personal Relationships 00:32:00 – Respecting the Needs of Mid-Singles 00:34:00 – Connecting Members with Christ 00:37:00 – Creating Meaningful Activities 00:40:00 – Intentionality in Planning Activities 00:46:00 – Monthly Themes and Attributes of Christ The award-winning Leading Saints Podcast is one of the top independent Latter-day Saints podcasts as part of nonprofit Leading Saints’ mission to help Latter-day Saints be better prepared to lead.

【聊了什么】 2026年中期选举初选进入尾声,两党的结果已经打破了不少看似稳固的判断。特朗普仍然牢牢影响共和党,但他亲自背书的候选人在多场关键初选中接连落败;民主党则有七名现任众议员倒在党内挑战者手下。特朗普的背书在哪些地方仍然有效?现任优势又为什么正在民主党内部失灵? 本期我们从密歇根、威斯康星和明尼苏达的选举结果谈起,讨论民主党建制派、进步派与民主社会主义者围绕“可当选性”、巴以议题、族裔代表和党内资源展开的路线之争。我们也分析了初选民调为什么会大幅失准:投票人群的构成、最后时刻的势头、竞选资金与组织能力,怎样让看似稳固的领先在投票日突然消失。 我们也讨论了可能决定参议院控制权的大选地图:德州、密歇根、缅因、俄亥俄、阿拉斯加、佐治亚、北卡和爱荷华,哪些是真正可能翻盘的战场,哪些只有在浪潮选举中才会出现意外?2026年的中期选举不只是红蓝之间的较量,也是两党内部关于谁能代表自己、谁能真正赢下大选的争夺。 本期节目录制于8月16日。 【支持我们】 如果喜欢这期节目并希望支持我们将节目继续做下去: 也欢迎加入我们的会员计划: https://theamericanroulette.com/paid-membership/ 会员可以收到每周2-5封newsletter,可以加入会员社群,参加会员活动,并享受更多福利。 合作投稿邮箱:american.roulette.pod@gmail.com 【时间轴】 00:35 开场:进入2026年中期选举初选盘点 05:11 特朗普背书破功,共和党掌控力出现松动 12:23 七名民主党现任众议员为何输掉党内初选 19:10 密歇根与威斯康星:进步派、建制派与“可当选性” 40:24 明尼苏达与民主社会主义者的扩张 43:16 初选民调为什么接连失准 48:24 德州与密歇根:参议院争夺的两种难题 55:31 缅因州:Susan Collins 还能守住席位吗 58:37 俄亥俄州:Sherrod Brown 的翻盘机会 1:06:00 阿拉斯加:同名候选人与排序复选的变量 1:12:16 佐治亚与北卡:民主党为什么领先稳固 1:16:53 爱荷华:地方议题能否撬动红州 1:22:13 蒙大拿、内布拉斯加与堪萨斯的冷门可能 1:25:54 Fetterman 与参议院控制权的关键一票 【我们是谁】 美轮美换是一档深入探讨当今美国政治的中文播客。 本期的主播和嘉宾: 王浩岚:美国政治爱好者,岚目公众号主笔兼消息二道贩子 小华:媒体人 【 What We Talked About】 The 2026 midterms have not yet entered their final stretch, but the party primaries have already upended several assumptions that once seemed settled. Donald Trump still holds considerable sway over the Republican Party, yet several candidates he personally endorsed have lost key primaries. Meanwhile, seven incumbent House Democrats were defeated by challengers from within their own party. Where does Trump's endorsement still carry weight? And why is the advantage of incumbency breaking down among Democrats? We examine the results in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota, focusing on the struggle among the Democratic establishment, progressives, and democratic socialists over electability, Israel and Palestine, racial representation, and party resources. We also explore why primary polling missed the mark so badly: how turnout composition, late momentum, campaign spending, and organizing capacity can make an apparently secure lead disappear on Election Day. We also survey the Senate map that could determine control of the chamber, including Texas, Michigan, Maine, Ohio, Alaska, Georgia, North Carolina, and Iowa. Which races present genuine opportunities to flip a seat, and which would become competitive only in a wave election? The 2026 midterms are not simply a contest between red and blue. They are also an internal struggle over who represents each party and who can actually win a general election.

And Dems Nominated Another Socialist for Senator. And a Former Republican-turned-Dem who Can't Win. Darline Graham Knows Nothing. Calling Stephen Colbert! Three million independent Floridians were barred from every contest on this week's ballot. More than 640,000 of them are veterans. That is not a glitch — it is the design of a rigged two-party system that closes the books a month early and dares you to switch teams just to be heard. In episode 604, Paul Rieckhoff walks through the numbers county by county, exposes how the Democratic Socialists of America keep hijacking closed primaries and then getting flattened in general elections, and makes the case that Florida is not Manhattan and Michigan is not Manhattan. He also introduces two independent veterans already on the November ballot — Mike Klein, a West Point infantry officer running for U.S. House in Florida's third district, and Lacey Villarreal, an Air Force veteran running for West Melbourne City Council — plus the widening lane for a Stephen Colbert Senate run in South Carolina against the installed Darlene Graham. Add in Pete Hegseth campaigning in Iowa while sailors on the USS Lincoln go without adequate resupply, a measles outbreak in Iowa, and a president still all gas, no brakes, and the stakes could not be clearer.

Thaddeus McCotter analyzes the recent Michigan Democratic primary, where Dr. Abdul El-Sayed narrowly defeated the establishment candidate, Haley Stevens. El-Sayed, an "anti-establishment" fighter endorsed by Bernie Sanders, capitalized on unhappiness within the Democratic base, particularly in counties with large young populations like Washtenaw and Kent. While El-Sayed distances himself from the "Socialist" label, he supports extensive economic regulation and holds anti-Israel sentiments popular in Ann Arbor. McCotter notes that the Democratic establishment is now rallying around El-Sayed to preserve their Senate majority, hoping a "common enemy" in Donald Trump will bridge internal divides. Republican candidate Mike Rogers, a former Intelligence Committee chair, plans to counter El-Sayed by focusing on manufacturing, border security, and the risks of "Medicare for All" to seniors. McCotter warns that Trump's messaging on the "Iran war" and rising inflation remains a significant hurdle for Republican candidates in the general election. (6)

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they react to a socialist state lawmaker shocking the Democrats by winning the Florida U.S. Senate primary, South Carolina Sen. Darline Graham admitting she is not well-versed at all on national security, a company admitted it completely fabricated recent polling results, and two Dan Sullivans appearing likely to make the November ballot for U.S. Senate in Alaska.First, they discuss the stunning victory of socialist Angie Nixon in the Florida Democratic U.S. Senate primary over the heavily-favored establishment pick, Alexander Vindman. Jim and Greg also discuss how this result may impact the governor's race, and they round up a number of encouraging results in GOP congressional primaries.Next, they head to the South Carolina GOP U.S. Senate debate as Sen. Darline Graham whiffs on a question about Taiwan and admits, "National security is not my thing." Jim explains why this answer ought to be considered disqualifying, especially considering the challenges we face from China.Then, they dig into "Median Strategies" announcing it is done polling, fabricated all of their results, and the whole operation was a social experiment to see how much fake polling could get reported without anyone bothering to verify the results were legitimate.Finally, they groan over Alaska's ridiculous system, where four candidates advance from Tuesday's primary to the general election. This year the four U.S. Senate candidates will include two named Dan Sullivan, one of whom is accused of running just to sow confusion for the current Sen. Sullivan. The eventual winner will be decided through the execrable ranked choice voting system.

When was the last time you went to the doctor?Not necessarily for something big, not for a broken finger or the flu. Just a checkup. A regular annual visit to make sure everything is ok with your health.For about a third of Americans, it's probably been too long. In 2024, more than 100 million people did not have a regular primary doctor at all, according to the National Association of Community Health Centers.The outlook is particularly bleak for young people. More than a quarter of people aged 18 to 29 polled in a national survey this summer said they didn't have a primary care doctor. And over half of them who did have a doctor said they skipped or didn't schedule an annual wellness check up in the past year.But the blame shouldn't fall solely on the patients. Primary care doctors are getting squeezed by the current healthcare system. There's a growing shortage of primary care physicians. That can mean wait times of months just to get an appointment.For today's installment of our series, “In Good Health,” we're unpacking the state of primary care—and what to do if you don't have access to it.Find more of our programs online.
