In this podcast, we speak to Carmen Többen who won the WorldSkills Gold Medal for best receptionist in Lyon, France last year.  After winning the Gold Medal at the SwissSkills competition in Bern in 2022 and the EuroSkills Gold Medal in Gdansk, Poland in 2023, Carmen used those exceptional experiences to win gold in Lyon. Carmen walks us through the prestigious WorldSkills competition by describing the different tasks she had to perform and explains how she trained for these four, very intense days.   We question Carmen on how she trained and managed to stay focused under immense pressure and how these competitions demand both physical and mental preparation.   Carmen also describes the comradery that these competitions create and how being able to compete against young people from around the world was a reward in itself. By sharing some memorable moments and talking us through the past three years of intensive training, our listeners can better understand how becoming the World's best receptionist demanded perseverance, confidence and a very strong network of support not only from her family, but also from the hotels that Carmen worked in during these competitions.  While working at the Baur au Lac, one of Zurich's most luxurious hotels, Carmen received first-class job training and the staff were thrilled to learn that she had won gold in Lyon. Carmen Többen studied at the Schulhotel Regina in Interlaken, Switzerland and received a Swiss Federal certificate as a Hotel Communication Specialist and went on to work at hotels in Thun and in Zermatt.  In 2023 she joined the Baur au Lac in Zurich as a hotel receptionist and went on to become a Front Office Supervisor.  In September of this year, she will continue her education by starting a Bachelor Degree in Hotel Management at the Lucerne Hotel School.

The President and Sabina Higgins hosted a reception to mark the 75th anniversary of the Civil Defence in Ireland.

It's strange how something as simple as the vibe of a waiting room can completely change how people feel about going to the dentist. When a place feels stiff and impersonal, it just adds to the anxiety that so many already bring with them. But when you walk into a space that feels warm and familiar—like your favorite neighborhood spot—it's like your guard drops a little. That kind of atmosphere doesn't just make people more comfortable, it makes them want to come back.In this episode of the Dental Flow Podcast, host Benjamin Suggs explains why your reception area can make or break a patient's first impression. He shares how small upgrades—like a clean, clutter-free space, friendly greetings, and simple comforts like coffee or Wi-Fi—can ease anxiety and build instant trust. It's not just about appearances; it's about creating a calm, welcoming vibe that helps patients feel cared for before they ever sit in the chair. Benjamin also highlights the impact of showcasing reviews and using personalized touches to boost confidence and increase treatment acceptance. A few thoughtful changes can go a long way. WHAT TO LISTEN FOR[00:00] Why your front desk might be losing you patients[06:29] Stop calling it a waiting room and do this instead[07:04] Simple ways to make patients feel instantly at ease[10:15] Snacks, Wi-Fi and the secret to five-star reviews[16:02] Turn reviews into trust while patients sit and wait CONNECT WITH USLearn more about improving dental practice marketing on Flow.Benjamin Suggs on LinkedInFor 12+ years, Flow New Patient Marketing has had a simple mission… to bring you as many quality new patients as possible.

On this episode of the  Swell Season Surf Podcast we meet Alistair Thompson, the author of 'A Surfer's Guide to Enlightenment', a beautiful and reflective book that blends surfing, spirituality, and self-discovery. It's part memoir, part philosophy, and full of lessons drawn straight from the ocean. Alistair shares his journey from a life of 'monotonous discomfort' to one enriched by surfing, discussing themes of fear, ego, love, forgiveness, and faith. In his book, he explores everything from fear and ego to love, forgiveness, and faith—all through the lens of the sea. Whether you're a surfer or not, this conversation is about what it means to start, to fall, to get back up, and to find your wave—whatever that might be. It's an ode to those seeking self-discovery and meaning in their lives.

A novelisation written by  is set to be released in July 2025. Plot [] Belinda Chandra's boyfriend, Alan Budd, gives her a certificate  for her birthday. He  but she rebuffs him. Seventeen years later, on 24 May 2025, Belinda is captured by robots and taken, as their queen, to Missbelindachandra One, a planet orbiting her star. The "Missbelindachandrakind" are composed of humanoids and robots, who coexisted peacefully until the latter took control and some humans began to rebel. The robots are controlled by the Great  Generator, who plans to merge with Belinda. On their spaceship, Belinda blames Alan for registering the star, as it flies through a time fracture. , who had been in pursuit, is sent backward six months, and by the time Belinda arrives, he has become the historian. Exploiting a fault that prevents the robots from hearing every ninth word, the Doctor and the rebels rescue Belinda. The Doctor realises that the robots possess a certificate identical to Belinda's, and have had it for over 5000 years. He concludes that this is related to the time fracture. Belinda allows herself to be captured, asking the robots to spare the rebels. Belinda and the Doctor are taken to the Great AI Generator. They discover that it is not "AI" but "AL", short for Alan. After Belinda had blamed Alan, the robots used the time fracture to capture him ten years earlier in 2015. Seeing life on Missbelindachandra as a game, Alan merged himself with the machines and started the war. Using every ninth word, Alan communicates to them that he is in pain. Belinda touches her copy of the certificate to Alan's, causing them to experience all of time simultaneously. The Doctor rescues Belinda, while Alan reverts to a sperm and egg, which is cleaned up by a robot. Now free, the humanoids and robots rebuild their society, while the Doctor takes Belinda to his . He describes meeting her distant descendant Mundy Flynn and wants to know how the robots acquired the certificate, but Belinda, disturbed at his insistence that their encounter is "destiny" and refusing to be one of his adventures, demands to be taken home. The TARDIS is unable to return to 24 May 2025, instead bouncing off that date. The Doctor tells Belinda that they will need to take the long way around. As the TARDIS dematerialises, debris from several Earth landmarks and the certificate float in space. Production [] Development [] "The Robot Revolution" was written by . He initially conceptualized the idea as a one-off story and later reworked it into a  to serve as a companion introduction. Davies said that it was a "difficult" episode to write, because he struggled with turning a joke about star naming into a full script.

The polish robot that appears in the episode was designed with a similar 1950s aesthetic, primarily being based on cars of the time period. The robot had unique wheels that allowed it to move laterally as well as straight ahead, as the designers wanted the robot to have a unique range of motion compared to other robots of similar size. The AI Generator was similarly designed to appear large and imposing, with the set and art design teams collaborating to determine where the presence of Alan would be inside of the machine. The set for the throne room, where Belinda is initially brought in the episode, is re-used for the AI Generator's room. The design team placed the "head" of the Generator's design just below the room's centerpiece in order to create the illusion that the room acted like a crown for the Generator and that the room is an extension of him.

From the series "According To Luke"

Post-Gazette Pirates insider Noah Hiles and sports columnist Jason Mackey break down the team's series loss to the Tampa Bay Rays this week. Did Wednesday's win, led by Paul Skenes, show this team can get on the right track? Or should Derek Shelton's club expect a chilly reaction from its fans when it returns to Pittsburgh for Friday's home opener on Friday? What is the state of the bullpen without David Bednar, who was optioned to Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday? What should the Pirates do with Colin Holderman, who struggled again Wednesday? Is Dennis Santana the club's de facto closer? And how concerned should we be with the team's underwhelming hitting through seven games from players like Tommy Pham and Jack Suwinski? Our duo answers those questions and more.

“So often we look outside ourselves for the expansion that lives within,” says today's guest Cathy Heller, a coach, spiritual guide, meditation teacher, and inspirational speaker. Many of us hang our worth and happiness on things we don't have yet: the dream job, the perfect relationship, the fancy clothes. But in Cathy's book Abundant Ever After, as well as in this episode, she tells us that we can have the ease, connection, and joy we so desperately crave, just as we are now. And when we can learn to do that, we become ready to receive abundance. Cathy and Dr. Alexandra discuss the Law of Reception and our capacity for welcoming goodness in, in the same way a radio dial tunes into different channels. Cathy also kicks off the episode by leading listeners through a nourishing mediation, which you can return to at any time, here on this episode."Your Anxiety Toolkit" on MasterClass: www.masterclass.com/youranxietytoolkitAbundant Ever After: Tools for Creating a Life of Prosperity and Ease by Cathy HellerCathy's Instagram @cathy.hellerCathy's websiteOrder Dr. Alexandra's book, Love Every DaySubscribe to Dr. Alexandra's NewsletterSubmit a Listener Question

Paul's relationship with Jewish law is notoriously difficult to grasp. In this episode, Dr. Matthew Novenson joins the podcast and proposes a new interpretive framework to make sense of the prolific apostle—Paul saw himself as a Jew, not at the end of Judaism, but at the end of history. Dr. Novenson is a Professor of New Testament at Princeton Theological Seminary and the author of “Paul and Judaism at the End of History.” In this conversation we will examine Paul's views on justification, legalism, and chauvinism, as well as his criticism of Jewish conversion for Gentiles. These perspectives help explain some of the tensions and seeming contradictions in his letters as he addressed communities he believed were on the cusp of a radical transformation to a new era of human history. — Takeaways — ► Paul's view of himself and Judaism: Paul considered himself a Jew and did not see his teachings as a departure from Judaism but rather as a part of its historical progression. ► Paul's imminent eschatology and its implications: Paul's belief in the imminent end of the age and the coming of the new creation heavily influenced his views on the law, justification, and conversion. ► The interpretation of "justification": The concept of justification in Paul's letters is interpreted as a "transfer term" referring to the transfer into the new creation rather than merely a forensic declaration of righteousness. ► Paul's opponents: Contrary to the common assumption that Paul's opponents were Jewish, Dr. Novenson suggests that they were actually Gentile converts advocating for proselyte circumcision. ► Paul's "legalism": Dr. Novenson challenges the traditional view of Paul as being anti-legalistic by pointing out instances in his letters where he sets strict standards and prohibitions, indicating a form of "legalism." — Chapters — (00:00) Introduction to Dr. Matthew Novenson (06:30) Galatians 1:3 – Did Paul abandon Judaism?

Hey Sox fans! The first series is in the books and the Chicago White Sox did not embarrass themselves... yet. Sox won big in the opener, then fell to the Angels in the next two games. Starting pitching has been a nice surprise but the offense will need to get creative. Tim Anderson and Yoan Moncada returned home to a mixed reception. Why are there so many Cubs jerseys at a Sox game and when did we forget how to use the bathroom? Next up: Sox host the Minnesota Twins then head to Detroit. Thanks for the continued support.

This podcast details the life and spiritual contributions of John of Dalyatha, a 8th-century monk and mystic from the Church of the East, highlighting his ascetic practices and writings focused on achieving union with God. Despite initial condemnation for alleged heresies, his works, emphasizing themes like repentance, contemplation, and the struggle against evil, circulated widely across various Christian traditions through translations and adaptations. The text also explores the reasons behind his condemnation and subsequent rehabilitation, reflecting theological tensions within the early church. Ultimately, John of Dalyatha's enduring influence on Christian mystical thought is underscored by the widespread dissemination and appreciation of his teachings beyond the confines of his original ecclesiastical context.

Cancer is one of the most terrifying illnesses of our age - a sudden change that happens silently inside our bodies and slowly eats away at us until there's nothing left. It's also one of the biggest failures of the pharmaceutical age - somewhere between 90 and 97% of all cancer drugs fail at clinical trials. Which is why we're unbelievably excited to bring you our conversation with Dr. Thomas Seyfried, Professor of Biology at Boston College who appears to be hot on the trail of a cure cancer that has nothing to do with the oncology-industrial-complex. According to the dozens of papers he and his colleagues have published over the last few decades, a strict ketogenic diet coupled to a glutamine inhibitor is sufficient to weaken cancer cells to the point that the immune system can actually clear the tumor. A recent paper from his group published in February of 2025 shows the stunning effects of his protocol in a small group of eighteen glioblastoma patients. Median survival for these patients for the last hundred years has been 12-15 months, but with Seyfried's intervention appears to have been extended up to 84 months. That's seven years, for those keeping score.We sit down with Seyfried to take apart his protocol, why it works for cancer, why no one's heard if it, and how everyone has completely misunderstood what cancer actually is.MAKE HISTORY WITH US THIS SUMMER:https://demystifysci.com/demysticon-2025PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-show(00:00) Go!(00:07:33) - Reception of Metabolic Cancer Research(00:10:05) - Breakthrough in Glioblastoma Treatment(00:14:49) - Glutamine-Glutamate Cycle in Cancer(00:16:33) - Challenges and Critiques of Standard Care(00:17:43) - Barriers to Implementing Metabolic Therapies(00:24:19) - Radiation and Cancer Treatment(00:26:07) - Metabolic Approach to Cancer(00:27:30) - Evolutionary Biology's Role in Understanding Cancer(00:28:52) - Mitochondria's Role in Cellular Destiny(00:31:39) - The Oxidative Phosphorylation Process(00:35:28) - Cancer and Mitochondrial Function(00:38:43) - Cellular Electrochemical Gradients(00:41:30) - Cancer's Dependency on Fermentable Fuels(00:45:08) - Glutamine's Role in Cancer Treatment(00:52:11) - Patient Compliance and Dietary Challenges(00:55:33) - Glucose Ketone Index for Health Monitoring(01:06:48) - Fenbendazole and Cancer Research(01:10:02) - Medical Industry Business Models(01:13:27) - Diets and Nutritional Ketosis(01:17:06) - Metabolic Variability and Personalization(01:19:25) - Exercise and Metabolic Health(01:23:43) - Historical Misconceptions in Cancer Treatment(01:26:21) - Obesity and Cancer Prevention(01:28:00) - Metabolic Theories of Cancer(01:47:18) - Metastatic Cancer Origins(01:55:24) - Therapeutic and Collaborative Approaches(01:59:57) - Practical Steps and Transformations#CancerResearch, #glioblastoma, #CancerAwareness, #Oncology, #CancerTreatment, #CancerSurvivor, #FightCancer, #EndCancer, #CancerSupport, #ClinicalTrials, #CancerWarrior, #BeatCancer, #CureCancer, #CancerFighter, #StayStrong, #CancerCommunity, #philosophypodcast, #sciencepodcast, #longformpodcast ABOUS US: Anastasia completed her PhD studying bioelectricity at Columbia University.

“I Am Music,” the third studio album by American rapper Playboi Carti, dropped on March 14, 2025, through AWGE and Interscope Records, marking his first full-length release in over four years since the groundbreaking “Whole Lotta Red” in 2020. This 30-track opus, originally teased under the title “Narcissist” before evolving into “Music” and finally “I Am Music,” arrives after a torturous gestation period that tested the patience of Carti's fervent fanbase. Spanning 77 minutes, the album is a sprawling testament to his enigmatic persona, blending trap, punk, and experimental rap into a chaotic yet captivating sonic tapestry. Featuring an all-star lineup of collaborators—Travis Scott, Kendrick Lamar, The Weeknd, Future, Lil Uzi Vert, Skepta, Jhené Aiko, Ty Dolla Sign, and Young Thug—“I Am Music” showcases Carti's ability to command a cultural moment, even amidst a rollout plagued by delays, leaks, and unfulfilled promises.The album's production, helmed primarily by Ojivolta, Cardo, and F1lthy, with contributions from heavyweights like Kanye West, Metro Boomin, and Mike Dean, oscillates between glitchy synths, booming trap drums, and atmospheric flourishes. Tracks like “Evil J0rdan” and “HBA” (formerly “H00dByAir”), released as standalone singles in 2024, anchor the project with their hypnotic beats and Carti's signature vocal contortions—ranging from guttural growls to high-pitched shrieks. The inclusion of DJ Swamp Izzo's bombastic interludes ties the album to Atlanta's mixtape heritage, lending a gritty, street-level authenticity to its futuristic sound. Standouts like “Mojo Jojo,” with Kendrick Lamar's playful ad-libs, and “Rather Lie,” elevated by The Weeknd's silky croon, highlight the album's versatility, while “Like Weezy” nods to Lil Wayne—whose phrase “I Am Music” Carti borrows—with a Rich Kidz sample that bridges past and present.“I Am Music” is as much a vibe as it is a statement, reflecting Carti's evolution from SoundCloud darling to a generational pacesetter. Its rollout began in earnest with cryptic Instagram posts in December 2023, including the tagline “I am music” and Pharrell's co-sign, “Prepare.” What followed was a barrage of YouTube and Instagram exclusives—“2024,” “Backr00ms,” “All Red”—that fueled anticipation while frustrating fans with their streaming absence. Recorded in eclectic locales, including a Paris cave studio for three months, as Carti revealed in a 2023 Numéro Berlin interview, the album channels themes of love, sex, drugs, and personal turmoil, with hints of bipolar struggles and rehab musings teased in his 2022 XXL interview. Yet, lyrically, it leans more into braggadocio and hedonism than introspection, a choice that critics argue limits its depth.Reception has been polarized but largely positive, with Pitchfork calling it a “dizzying, vibes-driven flood,” and The Guardian praising Carti's “mystical vocal range.” Its 30-track length—bloated to some, a feast to others—mirrors the excess of his persona, though tracks like “OPM Babi” and “Twin Trim” (a Uzi solo cut) feel like filler. The album debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200, moving 298,000 units, cementing Carti's commercial clout. Still, its messy release—delayed from midnight to dawn on March 14 amid sample clearance woes—mirrors its unpolished edges, with some accusing Carti of coasting on aura over substance. Regardless, “I Am Music” reaffirms his dominance in the rage-rap lineage he pioneered, a chaotic masterpiece that thrives on its contradictions.
