Podcasts about Quest

Most people know they should exercise, eat better, move more, and take better care of themselves. The problem is turning that knowledge into consistent action. A meaningful quest can give your training a reason beyond simply checking off another workout. It might be getting stronger, losing weight, improving your health, preparing for a physical challenge, or simply becoming someone who is proud of the way they take care of their body. Niki Sims and Andrew Jackson discuss why action often has to come before identity, why motivation is unreliable, and how a clear vision of the person you want to become can help guide what you do today. They also explore: Why training needs a meaningful purpose The difference between a goal and a quest Why motivation often follows action How social media can distort your definition of progress Why real transformation usually comes from boring, repeatable actions How to turn a future vision into something you can do today You do not need to transform your entire life at once. Find a quest worth pursuing, identify the next action, and start acting like you care about your body.

Deux tiers des maladies connues n'ont aucun traitement efficace.Pourtant, les géants de la pharma ont arrêté de chercher.D'ici 2033, l'industrie pharmaceutique mondiale perdra 400 milliards de dollars de chiffre d'affaires par an, à mesure que ses brevets tombent dans le domaine public.Aujourd'hui, plus de 70% des médicaments innovants vendus viennent de petites entreprises, des biotechs, qu'elle rachète pour combler ce trou.C'est ici que Rafaèle Tordjman a décidé d'agir.Double docteure en médecine et en sciences, elle a soigné des cancers du sang à Saint-Louis et à Necker, avant de passer une thèse de sciences et un post-doctorat à l'Inserm.Après ses études, Rafaèle quitte l'hôpital car elle comprend que pour mieux servir les patients, il faut accélérer l'innovation.Mais cette innovation ne naît ni dans les hôpitaux, ni chez les géants de l'industrie.Elle naît dans les petites biotechs.Alors en 2018, elle fonde Jeito Capital pour accompagner ces structures.Aujourd'hui, Jeito gère 1,6 milliard d'euros et est devenu le plus gros fonds biopharma indépendant d'Europe.Pendant deux heures trente, Rafaèle décrypte une industrie qu'on ne nous explique jamais :Pourquoi les géants de la pharma ont arrêté de chercher et rachètent les molécules des petites biotechs à coups de milliardsCe que la Chine a déjà craqué sur le médicament, et la carte qui reste à jouer pour l'EuropePourquoi certains médicaments n'existeront jamais, même quand la maladie tueLes vrais chiffres derrière chaque médicament sur le marchéLes maladies du siècle et comment les prévenirUne plongée dans le modèle économique du médicament, racontée par une femme qui l'observe des deux côtés : au chevet du patient, et au capital des entreprises qui le soignent.Vous pouvez contacter Rafaèle sur Linkedin.TIMELINE:00:00:00 - Deux tiers des maladies sont sans traitement 00:13:17 - Le problème avec la chimiothérapie 00:18:41 - Financer les médicaments que les géants rachètent des milliards 00:27:00 - Le calendrier des brevets décide tout 00:34:31 - Concevoir un fonds comme une entreprise 00:42:29 - Les chiffres derrière chaque médicament sur le marché 00:55:31 - Transforme sa thèse de doctorat en entreprise 01:01:57 - 70 % de l'innovation ne vient pas des big pharma 01:11:19 - RGPD, le boulet de l'innovation médicale 01:25:06 - La santé, un secteur sans cycle et sans bulle 01:31:58 - Pourquoi certains médicaments n'existeront jamais 01:44:31 - Les maladies du siècle 01:54:45 - Les chiffres derrière un fonds biopharma d'un milliard 02:03:18 - L'œil humain reste indispensable 02:16:00 - 80 % des décisions de santé dans les familles sont prises par des femmes 02:25:27 - Le polar pour comprendre l'industrie du médicamentLes anciens épisodes de GDIY mentionnés : #543 - Yann Le Cun - AMI Labs - Rendre l'IA plus humaine#507 - Laurent Alexandre - Vers la fin des études supérieures ?#426 - Thomas Clozel - Owkin - Comment casser Big Pharma grâce à l'IA#397 - Yann Le Cun - Chief AI Scientist chez Meta - L'Intelligence Artificielle Générale ne viendra pas de Chat GPT#372 - Alexandre Jenny - Pixfield - L'incroyable histoire du geek de Chambéry derrière la GoPro 360#327 - Laurent Alexandre - Auteur - ChatGPT & IA : "Dans 6 mois, il sera trop tard pour s'y intéresser"#165 - Laurent Alexandre - Doctissimo - La nécessité d'affirmer ses idéesNous avons parlé de :JeitoDr. HouseKeytrudaOVNI CapitalMécanismes de l'effet placebo et du conditionnementQu'est ce qu'un essai en double aveugle ?Institut PasteurDASSAULT : le Fleuron de la défense FrançaiseUS Food and Drug AdmninistrationComment la Chine est devenue imbattable ?Les recommandations de lecture :For Blood and Money: Billionaires, Biotech, and the Quest for a Blockbuster Drug, by Nathan Vardi

Welcome to episode #1051 of Thinking With Mitch Joel (formerly Six Pixels of Separation). Dr. Sebastian Wernicke has built his career at the intersection of data science, artificial intelligence, economics, and decision-making. He leads the Data Science and AI team at Oxera, one of Europe's leading economics consultancies, and has become widely recognized for his ability to make complex ideas about data both accessible and deeply human. Many people first encountered Sebastian through his memorable TED Talk, which cleverly used data to satirize TED Talks themselves, but his work has always been driven by a much bigger question: how can organizations use data to challenge assumptions instead of reinforcing them? His new book, Data Inspired - Building An Organizational Culture Of Inquiry For Lasting Transformation, argues that businesses have become too focused on being "data-driven" and not focused enough on becoming "data-inspired." In this episode, Sebastian explains why more data doesn't automatically lead to better decisions, why confirmation bias often causes us to use data to strengthen existing beliefs, and why the greatest value of data lies not in optimization but in transformation. We also discuss the promises and disappointments of big data, the rise of generative AI, synthetic data, AI agents, and why the hardest challenge facing organizations isn't technological... it's cultural. Along the way, Sebastian makes a compelling case that leadership is ultimately about designing environments where people are encouraged to ask better questions, embrace uncertainty, and use evidence to change their minds rather than defend them. It is a thoughtful conversation about data, intelligence, curiosity, and why the organizations that thrive in the AI era will be the ones that build cultures of inquiry instead of cultures of certainty.

"If I'm here 20 years from now doing this exact same thing, is that okay? And I said, absolutely not." — Dr. Ken Keis Dr. Ken Keis is back — and if you caught his first conversation with Nicky, you already know this is someone who has built a life's work out of helping people find theirs. This time, the conversation goes deeper: into how a dairy farm kid who nearly failed high school and was told he'd never amount to anything became one of the world's leading voices on leadership, purpose, and human potential. Keis has logged over 3,000 paid presentations, written multiple bestselling books, built 12 proprietary assessments, and led Consulting Resource Group through close to five decades of growth. He's also someone who hired a coach in 1989 — when coaching wasn't a thing — drove five hours round-trip to do it, and has never stopped investing in his own development since. What makes this conversation worth your time is the specificity. Keis doesn't deal in vague inspiration. He talks about the exact question he asked himself at 5:30 in the morning that made him leave the farm. He describes why he went from B student to PhD candidate and what changed. He draws a clear line between people who have opinions and people who have wisdom — and why most of us are still asking the wrong ones for advice. There's also a practical gift in here: Keis is offering a free e-copy of his book The Quest for Purpose to TTLR listeners — a step-by-step process for getting clear on who you are and what you're built for.

If aliens landed on Earth tomorrow, would humanity unite to welcome our new extraterrestrial neighbors… or would we immediately start arguing about who owns the spaceship?You already know the answer.This episode of The Rizzuto Show begins with a perfectly reasonable hypothetical: UFOs have landed and aliens are officially confirmed to be on Earth. How are you feeling? Curious? Terrified? Mostly annoyed that the 24-hour news cycle will somehow make it the third-biggest story of the afternoon?The crew dives into UFOs becoming UAPs, government disclosures, Bob Lazar, Area 51 and whether actual extraterrestrial visitors could finally unite humanity. Rafe thinks having one common alien enemy might finally turn us all into citizens of Earth. Moon isn't buying that optimism and figures we'd probably start fighting over which country gets custody of the aliens before they even get out of the ship. Sounds about right.Back on Earth, St. Louis is getting a little Hollywood treatment with The Streak, a sports comedy filming locally about Caltech's legendary basketball team snapping a 310-game losing streak. The production needs roughly 1,800 volunteer extras for basketball crowd scenes, meaning you too can spend five hours waiting around for your glorious half-second of blurry cinematic immortality. At least they're bringing stand-up comedians in to entertain the extras between takes.Then we enter conspiracy territory with Tropical Storm Dolly. Yes, shortly after Dolly Parton's passing, the next named Atlantic storm happens to be Dolly. No, they didn't name it after her. Yes, the names were already determined. And yes, people online are still turning it into a conspiracy because apparently coincidence was removed from the Internet's vocabulary sometime around 2017. It's the kind of discussion a comedy podcast was genetically engineered to handle.The show also remembers the incredible Tim Curry, looking back at everything from The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Clue to Home Alone 2, Congo and his nightmare-fueling performance as Pennywise in the 1990 TV adaptation of It. Somehow that horrifying sewer scene aired on network television and an entire generation of children was simply expected to sleep afterward. The '90s were built different.Crap on Celebrities brings even more chaos: the Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni legal saga, Jamie Foxx discussing changes made to Django Unchained, a Quentin Tarantino-written Cliff Booth project, the original Sandlot cast reuniting for Dugout Dads, and the revelation that Benny “The Jet” Rodriguez grew up to become a firefighter. There is also a detour into a bizarre 2015 incident involving actor Mike Vitar because apparently even The Sandlot can't survive this show without us finding something weird.Ozzy Osbourne is getting his own Halloween Horror Nights attraction, Boston is celebrating 50 years with previously unreleased demos, Eric Clapton and John Mayer have a limited-edition guitar collection benefiting Clapton's recovery center, and Rupert Grint is returning as an adult Ron Weasley on Broadway. It's celebrity news, music news and pop culture commentary delivered with the level of professionalism you've come to expect from people debating alien treaties earlier in the episode.But then comes the real scientific research:Who has the most aura?According to an online ranking of effortless presence, charisma and coolness, Keanu Reeves sits at number one.Number two?Jesus.That's correct. According to the Internet, Keanu Reeves has officially edged out Jesus in aura.John Cena, Willem Dafoe, Christian Bale, Tupac, Robert Downey Jr., Matthew McConaughey, Michael Jackson, Jim Carrey, The Rock and Henry Cavill also make appearances as the crew debates who actually deserves to rank among humanity's most effortlessly cool people. Michael Jackson at number eleven? Rafe has questions. And frankly, so should you.Finally, the crew returns to Dolly Parton's remarkable legacy and the mountain of projects she left behind, including products, productions and even a song intended for release around her 100th birthday. Meaning Dolly apparently planned her content calendar farther into the future than most of us have planned lunch.Aliens. UFO conspiracies. Tim Curry. Dolly Parton. Hollywood. Ozzy. The Sandlot. Celebrity gossip. And Keanu Reeves defeating the Son of God in an online aura ranking.That's your comedy podcast for the day.Humanity might not be ready for aliens.We're apparently barely ready for a celebrity aura poll.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Chuck Garfien sits down with White Sox pitcher Mike Vasil to discuss the team's magical season, the division race, and his road to recovery from Tommy John surgery. Vasil also reacts to quotes from his roomate and teammate Chase Meidroth, looks ahead to the White Sox Magic Wand Giveaway, and imagines what a potential division-clinching celebration could be like.

I'm really hoping that Dolly enjoys the triple D's in the title, she was and will forever be an icon musically, philanthropically, and surgically. This episode is dedicated to the incredible women, incredible people, who, like Dolly, live their truth and uplift facts yet do not shy away from speaking passionately and genuine emotion. Sure, it may take “a lot of money to look that cheap,” but there's not enough cash in the world that could purchase Dolly Parton's integrity and integrity IS the purest expression of beauty.  You will be missed dearly, Miss Parton. We will always love you.

How can leaders use data to make better decisions and drive real change? In this episode, Kevin talks with Sebastian Wernicke about why so many organizations invest heavily in data and AI yet still struggle to achieve breakthrough results. Sebastian explains the difference between being data-driven, data-frustrated, and data-inspired. He believes that data should not only confirm and optimize what organizations already do but also challenge assumptions, reveal unexpected possibilities, and inspire new directions. They explore common myths about data, including the belief that it is always objective, that deeper analysis will automatically reveal the right answer, and that complex decisions can be reduced to a simple yes or no. Sebastian also shares why leaders must balance depth with decisiveness and become more comfortable with uncertainty and probability. They also discuss the opportunities and risks of AI, particularly its tendency to fill in gaps and generate appealing answers based on hidden assumptions. About Sebastian Wernicke Sebastian Wernicke, Ph.D., is the author of Data Inspired: Building an Organizational Culture of Inquiry for Lasting Transformation. He is a partner at Oxera Consulting, one of Europe's oldest economics and finance consultancies, where he leads the data science and AI practice. Sebastian is a leading expert in data and AI strategy and a former Chief Data Scientist. For two decades, he has guided organizations around the world to achieve breakthrough transformation through the power of data. His ability to make complex topics around data accessible, engaging, and actionable has made Sebastian a sought-after speaker and workshop facilitator. His three acclaimed TED Talks have reached over 5 million viewers. For more information, follow Sebastian Wernicke on LinkedIn or visit www.datainspired.org.

Unravel the chilling 1954 UFO mystery that pitted the Doublemint Twins against the CIA! In this captivating episode of My Dark Path, host MF Thomas dives into the extraordinary story of Marie and Mildred Maier, the original Doublemint Twins, whose encounter with an alien signal shook Chicago and exposed a shadowy government cover-up. On November 28, 1954, during a live WGN radio broadcast, the sisters recorded eerie, high-speed tones—described as a coded message resembling Jingle Bells—after host Jim Mills invited extraterrestrials to respond. What followed was a web of deception involving the CIA, fake Air Force officers, and a relentless UFO skeptic, Dr. Leon Davidson, who uncovered the truth.This episode of My Dark Path explores the Maier's journey from advertising fame as Wrigley's Doublemint Twins to accidental UFO hunters. In June and August 1954, the sisters captured mysterious objects in photographs during a solar eclipse and at the Baha'i Temple, images that baffled experts and fueled their fascination with the unexplained. Their WGN recording, detailed in a rare 1955 Journal of Space Flight article, caught the CIA's attention, leading to a covert operation to seize the tape. Posing as Air Force officers, CIA agents George O. Forrest and Dewelt Walker visited the sisters, claiming the signal was mere Morse code from a U.S. radio station. But was it?Enter Dr. Leon Davidson, a Los Alamos scientist who believed UFOs were a CIA-orchestrated psychological warfare tactic. In 1957, Davidson contacted the Maiers, exposing inconsistencies in the CIA's story and accusing the agency of fabricating UFO sightings to manipulate public perception during the Cold War. His dogged pursuit—writing to CIA Director Allen Dulles and confronting fake Air Force officials—revealed a deeper conspiracy. The CIA's 1997 report, The CIA's Role in the Study of UFOs, 1947-90, later admitted mishandling the case, confirming Davidson's suspicions of agency involvement.Set against the backdrop of 1954's UFO frenzy—sparked by Aviation Week's report of two mysterious satellites orbiting Earth—this episode uncovers a time when Cold War paranoia, public obsession with flying saucers, and government secrecy collided. From the 1952 Washington, D.C., UFO sightings to the Pentagon's scramble to dismiss the satellites as natural asteroids, the Maier sisters' story is a microcosm of a nation grappling with the unknown. Why did the CIA go to such lengths to bury a single tape? Were the sisters' photographs and recording evidence of extraterrestrial contact, or part of a larger psychological operation?Join My Dark Path as we navigate this tangled tale of UFOs, government lies, and the unrelenting quest for truth. MF Thomas weaves archival research, declassified CIA documents, and the Maier's own words to bring this forgotten chapter to life. Perfect for fans of The X-Files, true crime, and historical conspiracies, this episode will leave you questioning what the government isn't telling us.

Welcome to episode #1050 of Thinking With Mitch Joel (formerly Six Pixels of Separation). Fredric Marshall has spent decades helping people navigate change. An entrepreneur, investor in AI startups, CEO of Quantum Learning, and advisor on leadership and transformation, he has watched multiple waves of technological disruption unfold from the inside. His latest book, Thrive - The Antidote to Future Shock, revisits Alvin Toffler's famous concept of "future shock" and argues that today's anxiety isn't a personal failing... it's the predictable result of living through an era where change, information, and technological progress are arriving faster than most people can absorb. In this episode, Fred explores why the conversation about AI has become so emotionally charged, why younger generations feel a profound sense of uncertainty about their future, and why the real challenge isn't learning new tools... it's learning to direct our attention with intention. He explains why thriving requires more than technical skills, discussing the importance of agency, relationships, health, systems, and managing the growing tension between our digital and physical lives. The conversation also examines evidence-based optimism, the cultural backlash against AI, leadership in an era of disruption, and whether the pursuit of endless growth has reached its limits. Fred makes the case that while artificial intelligence will radically reshape work, the future belongs to people who can simplify complexity, think clearly, and consciously choose where to invest their attention. It's a thoughtful discussion about resilience, technology, and building a life that doesn't just survive change... but flourishes because of it. Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 59:29.

When sports journalist and bestselling author Matt Fitzgerald is struck by long COVID, his lifelong passion—running—becomes a distant memory, leaving him trapped in a failing body that simply won't cooperate. After authoring dozens of books and articles on athletes pushing the limits of human endurance, Fitzgerald is now forced to confront his own limits in ways he never imagined. Doctors have no answers and every day feels like an endless loop of misery and mental fog, but Fitzgerald is determined to reclaim his life and his passion. Despite serious health risks, lack of training, and a body that has become utterly unreliable, he makes the reckless decision to run a 100-km ultramarathon in a record-breaking desert heatwave. It's an audacious gamble that could cost him dearly, but Fitzgerald won't surrender to chronic illness without a fight. Drawing inspiration from ancient philosophy, modern psychology, and epic tales from Greek mythology, Fitzgerald embarks on a grueling physical and spiritual journey to discover what it truly means to live when your body betrays you. He has no idea if he'll find redemption or ruin in the scorching heat of the Sonoran Desert, but one thing is certain: This is a race he can't afford to lose.

Hello Beautiful, I'm so grateful you're here with me. Tonight, your imagination becomes the doorway to a peaceful adventure filled with wonder and possibility.

"Our our first job, job one, for anybody writing a book, for anybody writing a story of any kind, any length, is to get the reader to that last word. If you don't do that, it doesn't matter what pretty words you drop in the middle of the story. Doesn't matter how brilliantly conceived it is. The story has failed because you have failed to get the reader to the end," says Earl Swift, author of Up on Cove Mountain.It's Earl Swift with his tenth book. He's the New York Times bestselling author of Chesapeake Requiem, and he makes his fourth trip to the podcast to talk about Up on Cove Mountain: Adventure, Tragedy, and a Quest for Meaning on the Appalachian Trail. It's published by Mariner Books, and what a book it is as it recounts Earl's first hiking of the AT in 1990 and the happenstance, devoid-of-reason tragedy that befell two fellow southbound hikers in Molly LaRue and Geoff Hood. In that quest for meaning, Earl, now in his 60s, hikes the trail again to ponder the meaning of reason, luck, chance, and the enduring allure of the trail.What a joy to welcome Earl back to the show. This was a toe-tappin' good time. The toes were tapping. We start the conversation with: How to handle a book advance What drove Earl to return to the AT How Flip flopping the trail reflected the structure Making the AT chronicle feel fresh Trail angels Narrative wormholes The people he relies on for story help Luck How hiking the AT is like reading and writing Hiking your hike How he kept track of things on the trail Proportionality Getting the reader to the last word And how nonfiction is a constructYou can learn more about Earl at earlswift.com and follow him on IG @earl.swift.

What does a place do to you when you leave it behind—but it never really leaves you? In 1990, a young journalist named Earl Swift set out to hike the Appalachian Trail from Maine to Georgia. More than 2,000 miles later, he emerged changed: more disciplined, more resourceful, and deeply connected to the outdoors. But Swift also carried something else home. Early in his journey, he met two fellow hikers—friendly, capable, seemingly ordinary people who were doing everything right. Weeks later, those two hikers were murdered at a mountaintop campsite in Pennsylvania. The killer never adequately explained why. For decades, Swift carried questions about what happened. Why them? What had happened at that campsite? Could the tragedy have happened to any of them? And how can a place renowned for its beauty and relative safety suddenly become the setting for unimaginable violence? More than thirty years later, Swift returned to the Appalachian Trail. This time, he was in his sixties, testing himself against the trail once again—and also trying to understand a mystery that had followed him for half his life. His new book, Up on Cove Mountain: Adventure, Tragedy, and a Quest for Meaning on the Appalachian Trail, is part adventure story, part true-crime investigation, and part meditation on memory, mortality, risk, and the strange hold that wild places can have on us. Today, Earl Swift takes us back onto the Appalachian Trail.

John sits down with Mike Arnold (author of Bringing Back the Lions and Bringing Back the Wild, biologist, and host of the Bringing Back the Wild podcast) for a deep dive into one of the more specialized pursuits in African hunting: the Tiny Ten. Mike shares the full story of how his very first African animal — a Vaal Rhebok in the Great Karoo — launched a multi-country quest that eventually produced eleven of these pygmy antelope. He walks through the hunts for Vaal Rhebok, Bush Duiker, Klipspringer, Cape Grysbok, Steenbok, Damara Dik-Dik, Blue Duiker, Red Duiker, Suni, Oribi, and Red-Flanked Duiker across South Africa, Mozambique, Namibia, and Cameroon. They discuss the specialized habitats and tactics required, the surprisingly effective use of varmint calls on some species, the best cartridges for animals that can weigh under 20 pounds (from .22 Hornet to .375), the challenges of shot placement and taxidermy, SCI scoring realities, and why these little antelope are often more difficult and rewarding than many larger plains-game species. Mike also puts on his biologist hat to explain how so many tiny antelope have thrived in a predator-rich landscape, the heavy bushmeat pressure they face, and the conservation role of places like Zambezi Delta Safaris. Whether you've already taken a couple of the Tiny Ten or you're just curious about this specialized side of African hunting, this episode delivers both great stories and practical insight.

My guest today is legendary, bestselling author Steven Pressfield, who's known for his work on creativity, self-discipline, and how to overcome the inner force of what he calls, "capital R" - Resistance.He's written 25 books including the wildly popular - The War of Art, Turning Pro, Do The Work, and Put Your Ass Where Your Heart Wants to Be - which have influenced tons of successful writers, thinkers, artists and entrepreneurs - including Ryan Holiday and Rich Roll.Steven wrote for 27 years before his first novel The Legend of Bagger Vance got published and made into a Robert Redford film starring Matt Damon and Will Smith. He's also written a memoir Gov Cheese and many historical novels like, A Man at Arms, Gates of Fire, and his latest, The Arcadian!I've been reading and recommending his work for years, so to have him on the show felt like such a full-circle, meant-to-be moment!Here's some of what Steven and I dive into in this episode:Resistance (with a capital R):That invisible, diabolical force that shows up every time you try to write the book, record the podcast, go to the gym, leave the job, or step toward your calling.“Resistance will kill you”:Steven shares why not following your creative or spiritual calling doesn't just make you uncomfortable… it can slowly kill your spirit, your self‑trust, and your life-force.Self‑​Discipline & ​Ritual:We talk about why discipline gets such a bad rap, how it actually becomes an act of self‑love, and what it looks like in real life to “put your ass where your heart wants to be.”Art as a Spiritual Practice:Steve and I dig into the idea that we're spiritual beings in a messy, beautiful, often painful world – and how making art (in any form) is one of the most powerful ways we can respond to and answer that.His new book, The Arcadian:He shares the 40‑year journey behind this story, karma, warriors, and what it costs a soul to live a life of violence… and try to find redemption.I also share a bit about my own writing journey with my memoir, and how bumping up against Resistance has pushed me deeper into my spiritual practice and creative life.This episode is for you if:

Hump Day arrives with a surprise nobody saw coming—especially King Scott, who walked into what he thought was another perfectly normal Hubbard Radio meeting and instead found a full-blown baby shower waiting for him. Balloons? Check. Barbecue? Absolutely. Enough diapers to make every parent in the room experience a traumatic flashback? You bet. Lern deserves special recognition for successfully stalling Scott by basically throwing every conversational emergency she could think of at him until the surprise was ready. Nothing suspicious about suddenly needing to discuss your entire medical history and possibly the Old Testament inside a radio booth.From there, this funny podcast gets into the realities of impending fatherhood, cloth diapers, Diaper Genies, crying babies and the future arrival of little Ethel—also known, for reasons this child may someday resent, as Gatorade.Then Rafe reports back from Outlaw Music Festival, where his long-running mission to get aboard Willie Nelson's tour bus once again encountered the minor obstacle of Willie Nelson being protected like the President of Texas. Rafe breaks down the impressive lineup, including Stephen Wilson Jr., Lukas Nelson and The Avett Brothers, while explaining just how seriously Willie's team locks things down backstage. The dream of getting onto the bus is still technically alive, although at this point it may require fate, divine intervention or Rafe being rolled backstage inside a protective bubble.The concert also produces an important sociological breakthrough nobody requested: Rafe's theory that Wranglers, cowboy boots and a cowboy hat automatically increase your attractiveness by roughly two points. The crew immediately subjects this groundbreaking research to peer review, including the crucial question of whether cowboy gear maintains its powers inside a Schnucks frozen-food aisle. This is the kind of scientific rigor you expect from a funny podcast with absolutely no scientific credentials.Things somehow get more uncomfortable when Riz shares some old high-school gossip involving a former student eventually dating one of her former teachers. That launches a much bigger conversation about age differences, authority, small-town dating pools and exactly how long after graduation something stops being weird. Listener stories arrive to make everything substantially less comfortable. Mission accomplished.Then the show heads into St. Louis-area weird news. PETA is offering a reward in connection with four guinea pigs abandoned inside exercise balls during extreme heat, leading the crew to investigate the apparently important secondary issue of what a guinea pig even costs these days. Spoiler: Rafe's estimate suggests he has not recently participated in the guinea pig economy.Meanwhile, Walmart drone deliveries are heading toward parts of the St. Louis area, and Maplewood residents have questions about noise, birds, hacking, air traffic and whether Grandma really needs groceries descending from the heavens. That spirals into a surprisingly thoughtful conversation about technology, AI data centers and whether all these inventions supposedly designed to save us time have actually just given us more time to work. Thankfully, somebody can now order pistachios and have them lowered into the backyard by robot aircraft, so civilization clearly nailed its priorities.There's also concern over the future of a historic Webster Groves theater, plus the incredible story of a mystery semi driver who stopped a van traveling the wrong way on I-70 and then apparently returned to his truck without waiting around for a parade. Finally, the crew discovers which car brand has some of the worst drivers, and BMW owners—including people conveniently sitting inside the studio—are forced to absorb a statistically assisted roasting involving turn signals, hair transplants, crypto and enough stereotypes to void the warranty.It's another funny podcast packed with St. Louis stories, weird news, concert chaos, questionable theories and the kind of conversations that begin with a baby shower and somehow end with BMW slander.

Guest: Tim GallaudetThe ocean shapes our weather, our climate, our economy, and ultimately, life on Earth itself. And yet, for something so vast and so essential, there's still so much we're only beginning to understand. Today on Weather Geeks, we're joined by Dr. Tim Gallaudet—oceanographer, former NOAA administrator, and longtime advocate for advancing ocean science and literacy. His new book takes readers deep into the challenges, discoveries, and opportunities tied to the future of our oceans, while also reflecting on the leadership and innovation needed to better understand and protect them. We'll talk about the inspiration behind the book, the emerging technologies transforming ocean research, and why collaboration and communication may be just as important as the science itself when it comes to shaping the future of ocean stewardship.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Ocean's Role in Earth's Climate00:47 Dr. Gallaudet's Background and Ocean Passion01:48 From Coast to Navy: A Dual Passion for Fluids02:48 Career Highlights and Leadership in the Navy07:22 Serving as NOAA Deputy and Leading Through Challenges09:32 Motivation Behind Writing 'Holding Fast in Heavy Seas'11:31 Break 111:32 Stories of Leadership and Resilience15:09 Advances in Ocean Mapping and Research Initiatives17:35 Bipartisan Support and Environmental Wins21:14 Leadership Pillars: All In, All Good, All For One21:44 Break 221:46 Coral Reefs: Biodiversity, Protection, and Economic Impact28:20 The Role of Private Sector in Ocean and Climate Science31:02 UAPs and the Quest for Scientific Truth33:55 Where to Find the Book and Future Research DirectionsResourcesHolding Fast in Heavy Seas by Tim Gallaudet - https://www.amazon.com/Holding-Fast-Heavy-Seas-NOAA - National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration - https://www.noaa.govOcean STL Consulting, LLC - https://oceanstl.comGuest linksWebsite - https://timgallaudet.comTwitter - https://twitter.com/TimGallaudetSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Full episodes and much more available on Patreon.com/slopquest Ryan and Andy address some good and bad comments. Andy hears from an old Beach Cops host and it’s actually pretty nice. An episode of Slop Quest comes on Andy’s car stereo at a bad time. Ryan suggests more baby doll chicanery and Andy isn’t having it. Andy goes to Jerry’s funeral and Big Earl Skakel surprises Andy from behind by heckling heartfelt speakers directly into Andy’s ear and it’s so inappropriate and hilarious that Andy has to stare at the floor the entire time. Comedians come out of the woodwork to talk about Jerry’s passing without realizing Jerry hated them. Earl comments on the quality of the babes at Jerry’s funeral and Andy and Mike Black eat an entire plate of pizza at the memorial. Earl then talks about how big his dick is in the middle of the service. Andy finds his old martial arts supply catalogue and Ryan and him reminisce about the “Ninja Industry”. Ryan loses all his Chinese stars at airport security and it puts a heavy dent in his collection. Ryan has a Mandela effect for “infront”as one word. Ryan has to review video footage of his kitchen to remember he turned off the stove. Ryan has a problem with teenagers and their confidence with their ideas. Andy comes up with a new comic idea where witches can only cast spells via their farts and Ryan roasts the shit out of him. Ryan tries to convince Andy to change the title. Ryan pitches his karate microdrama where he does karate from a wheelchair.

Alysa Seeland grew up on her grandparents' dairy farm in northern Illinois, chased a Division I volleyball scholarship through high school, and pivoted to speech and debate when she realized the sport wasn't going to be her path — placing second in the state of Illinois for original oratory her senior year. She studied communications and English literature at Gordon College, then cut her teeth in marketing at a Boston fintech startup that went through Techstars, learning firsthand how founders build trust with customers from scratch. Five months after her first son was born, a medical crisis nearly cost her life: emergency surgery, and a surgeon telling her to expect a second procedure within months. Instead of scheduling it, she found a decades-old book, "Nourishing Traditions," and went on a five-week bone broth diet. She never needed the second surgery — and went on to have five more sons. That personal healing became FOND. She sold her first jar at a farmers market in New Braunfels, Texas in 2015, working out of a commercial kitchen with her husband dropping her off, hoping she wouldn't come home in tears. She sold out. From there, FOND won a People's Choice Award through H-E-B's Quest for Texas Best program, landed a Whole Foods and Sprouts partnership, and grew into a genuinely regenerative supply chain built on direct farmer relationships instead of concentrate. In 2022, while raising a Series A, the co-manufacturer's facility burned down, wiping out over $4 million in product against a $150,000 insurance payout — all while she was pregnant with her sixth child. She walked away from the raise, put her own equity up as collateral for a $3 million rebuild loan, and launched an internal initiative called "Break It and Rebuild It" to get every channel profitable or cut it loose. Eighteen months later, FOND launched its tallow line and came back stronger. Today the company is profitable, debt-free of outside investment, growing 48% year over year, sold in H-E-B, Sprouts, Whole Foods, and now Albertsons — all while Alysa homeschools six boys. Charlie Clifford grew up a self-described "scrappy Jersey guy" in a town of 5,000 people, and won his first entrepreneurial prize in sixth grade: a watch, for out-hustling a classmate whose dad rigged the contest by buying magazine subscriptions wholesale for his medical office. After business school at Indiana University, he joined one of the first Peace Corps pilot programs recruiting MBAs — sent to Peru to work with small businesses under a Stanford professor who'd later teach Nike's Phil Knight. He came home with $10,000, invested it in a scrappy import operation selling handcrafted South American leather goods, and in 1975 broke off to start his own company focused on travel bags. He named it TUMI, after a Peruvian ceremonial knife. The brand's real breakthrough came when Clifford shifted from leather to black ballistic nylon — a fabric built for flak jackets — manufactured through a partnership with a small shop in Vidalia, Georgia. Bloomingdale's 59th Street flagship picking up the line put TUMI on the map. A conversation with a longtime retail partner, who told Clifford he had "so much product" he should just open his own stores, led to the "side-by-side" concept and eventually freestanding TUMI locations. By the 2000s, TUMI was the brand road warriors carried through airports worldwide, and it went public in 2012. Clifford left the company in 2004, when the private equity partners who'd taken majority ownership after 9/11 decided to sell. He spent years distributing other people's luggage brands before realizing he wanted control over the product and the story again. In 2017, he and his former TUMI EVP Larry Lein founded ROAM — American-made, hand-assembled, and built around a philosophy that's the opposite of TUMI's black-on-black uniform: total color customization, so no two suitcases look the same.

In this episode of Being Human, host Steve Cuss is joined by pastor and Harvard-trained brain scientist Jessie Cruickshank and first-time guest Julia Schmaltz to explore whether changing our internal narratives can enable transformation. Jessie and Julia discuss their co-authored book, Becoming Good News, and examine spiritual growth and discipleship through the lenses of theology, neuroscience, and personal experience. They challenge unrealistic “superhuman” expectations in church culture, advocate for grace-based discipleship, and emphasize that spiritual maturity means becoming more fully who God created us to be—joyful, childlike, and close to Jesus.

MLS broadcaster and CBS Sports Golazo commentator, Chris Wittyngham, joins the show to share his thoughts on Messi's strong comments hinting a potential retirement following the passing of his father.

Functionality is everywhere – but are consumers buying the benefit or seeing right through it?  This week, we dig into the rise of protein- and fiber-enhanced snacks from Khloud, Doritos and Smartfood, the growing buzz around colostrum, and a troubling new study on avocado oil authenticity. Plus, we explore the enduring appeal of pickle flavor, Grillo's winning collaboration strategy, premium dates and the surprising technology behind Air Up.  Show notes: 0:20: Ken's Leftovers. A Function-Forward Discussion. Educate Me. It's Not What You Bought. Slurp Up. – Ray digs into a grab bag The Beverage Whisperer left behind after his recent visit to the office, including a zero-sugar sports drink from the U.K. that sparks a conversation about better-for-you sports drinks and the growing popularity of alcoholic sports beverages. The hosts then turn to functionality, sampling Khloud's new protein- and collagen-enhanced chips, Doritos Protein chips and Smartfood Fiber popcorn. They discuss whether consumers actually care about added functionality in familiar products – or if brands are simply layering trendy benefits onto legacy favorites. The conversation continues with the growing buzz around colostrum and the education required to make sense of increasingly popular functional ingredients. The episode then moves to a troubling study on avocado oil, the enduring popularity of pickle flavor and Grillo's remarkable track record of brand collaborations, before wrapping with premium Rancho Meladucco dates and Air Up's unusual approach to flavoring water through scent. Brands in this episode: Posca, Super Lyte, Goldilocks, Khloud, Quest, Doritos, Smartfood, Ancient Nutrition, Mission Craft Cocktails, Grillo's, Firehook, Ithaca, PBR, V8, Utz, Liquid I.V., Pop-Up Bagels, Burt's Bees, Hippeas, Rancho Meladucco Date Farm, Date Fix, Air Up, Szent

Two former NBA players have declared themselves eligible for the WNBA draft. One is six-foot-eight and says he "identifies as sometimes identifying as a woman, for purposes of basketball." The WNBA responded by holding a meeting, validating everyone's feelings, and adjourning without a resolution. Bridget breaks down why this was always inevitable, why there's no way to tell the "sincere" trans women from the bad actors, and why that's always been the point. #WNBA #TransAthletes #DumpsterFire Topics covered: WNBA transgender athletes, Royce White WNBA, Enes Kanter Freedom WNBA, Sophie Cunningham, Caitlin Clark, Indiana Fever, DiJonai Carrington, women's sports, trans women in sports, JK Rowling 

What happens when you must build a bridge across one of the most complex intersections of modern life: where cutting-edge reproductive science meets deeply personal faith? In this profoundly moving episode, we explore the role of a Bridge Builder when navigating the turbulent, often taboo waters of infertility and IVF. Joining us is Dr. Oluyemisi Famuyiwa, a seasoned reproductive endocrinologist with over 25 years of experience and author of The Quest for Fertility, to help demystify the medical journey while honoring the spiritual and emotional heart of the struggle.Dr. Yemi unpacks the stark gaps in fertility education that persist across generations, challenging us to bring these sensitive conversations into the light. As Bridge Builders, we look directly at the difficult ethical dilemmas that arise with assisted reproductive technologies, examining the fine line between what is medically possible and what is ethically sound. Whether you are leading a family through your own fertility journey, supporting a loved one through heartbreak, or seeking to understand how to bridge the gap between clinical advancements and human compassion, this conversation serves as a guiding light of comfort, education, and hope.Key TakeawaysBridging the Sacred and the Scientific: A core attribute of the Bridge Builder persona is the ability to connect seemingly opposing worlds. This episode demonstrates how leaders can harmoniously blend cutting-edge reproductive science with personal faith and hope during life-altering trials.Leading Through the Taboo With Compassion: True connection requires breaking down cultural silences. Bridge Builders lean into heavily stigmatized topics like infertility, cultivating open, safe spaces where shared experiences dismantle isolation and heartbreak.Navigating the Ethical Crossroads of Innovation: As medical technology advances, leaders cannot ignore the accompanying moral responsibilities. The discussion highlights the vital need for Bridge Builders to actively facilitate societal dialogue regarding the ethics of treatments like IVF.Constructing Early Foundations for Long-Term Health: Advocacy and proactive education are central to building a healthy future. Leaders emphasize the importance of educating younger generations about how early lifestyle choices directly impact long-term reproductive health.Holistic Support Systems for the Journey: The road to parenthood requires structural stability. Bridge Builders advocate for integrating professional counseling and transparent communication to help individuals navigate the intense emotional and financial burdens of modern medicine.Links referenced in this episode:dryamimail.commontgomeryfertilitycenter.comMentioned in this episode:My friend Dr. Noah St. John calls this 'the invisible brake.'

Rizzuto is back from France, which means it's finally time to answer the question nobody asked: Can one man visit one of the most beautiful cities in the world and still come home with enough complaints to fill a morning show? Oui.Episode 114 begins back home in St. Louis with an Amber Alert that woke up half the city before taking a bizarre turn, plus Scott's live music adventure at Copper Fire, where the performance went great once the minor technical issue of the speakers actually producing sound was finally addressed. We also learn that Rizzuto is approaching the end of age 47, supposedly the happiest year of his life. Great news to discover right before it expires.Then comes important local Italian-American business: the world's oldest ravioli maker is opening its first U.S. manufacturing facility in St. Charles. Naturally, Rizzuto immediately begins wondering why his invitation to the ribbon cutting hasn't arrived. If there's a giant ravioli involved and this man isn't allowed to emerge from it holding an oversized pizza cutter, then frankly, what are we even doing here?But the main event is Rizzuto's triumphant return from Paris.He kept notes.A lot of notes.There are positives. The Paris Catacombs were incredible, featuring the bones of millions of people and the mildly unsettling realization that apparently enough tourists try to steal human remains that bags need to be checked on the way out. A nighttime river cruise delivered gorgeous views of the Eiffel Tower. There were baguettes. There was an absolutely elite steak sandwich. And yes, Paris itself occasionally managed to impress our extremely difficult international correspondent.Unfortunately for France, this is a comedy podcast, so we also need to discuss the complaints.Why is getting cold water apparently an international negotiation? Where is the ice? Why won't restaurants bring the check? Why does everything close when Rizzuto needs something? Is air conditioning merely a rumor Europeans started to make Americans feel comfortable booking flights? Is the Mona Lisa overrated? Is the Eiffel Tower overrated? Is the food overrated? And why did an Airbnb leave the family sweating in a hallway for 45 minutes while they tried to figure out how to get inside?Then there's transportation.One cab driver allegedly takes the scenic interpretation of “wrong direction,” keeps the meter running, and eventually gets into a heated French argument with Rizzuto. Rizzuto attempts to hold firm on the fare and ultimately negotiates himself a breathtaking discount of roughly fifteen bucks. International diplomacy is alive and well.The crew eventually tallies Rizzuto's Paris complaints, because apparently his vacation needed independent auditing.Travel chaos continues with a kid refusing to buckle a seatbelt and helping get an entire flight canceled overnight. From there, we examine airport security and the long-running liquid restrictions that have forced generations of travelers to choose between personal hygiene and bringing enough shampoo to survive Tuesday.Somehow this becomes a discussion involving Die Hard with a Vengeance, Jeremy Irons, TSA logic, confiscated hairspray and the exact amount of liquid apparently required before civilization collapses.And after all the monuments, bones, baguettes, questionable air conditioning, transportation drama and French customer service, Rizzuto finally lands back in St. Louis and realizes something important:He loves it here.Nothing makes home look better than an international vacation and a lukewarm glass of water.It's travel stories, St. Louis nonsense, weird news, daily humor and several completely unnecessary arguments packed into another comedy podcast from The Rizzuto Show.Come for the Paris vacation recap. Stay for the debate over whether holding a perfect French sandwich like a newborn baby is an acceptable response to lunch.This comedy podcast may not improve international relations, but at least we have ice.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
