Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 7-02-2026: Dr. Dawn devotes the first half of the show to a nuanced defense of GLP-1 receptor agonists, arguing the polarized debate treats obesity as a moral failure rather than a physiological one. She recounts the "Marilyn Monroe dress" moment that transformed semaglutide from diabetes drug into elite cosmetic tool, and pushes back on the puritanical framing that behavior change must be earned rather than pharmacologically enabled—noting we don't apply this logic to antihypertensives or statins. Dr. Dawn catalogs visceral fat as a genuine endocrine organ producing over 17 hormones, most of which drive self-perpetuating growth: leptin (this satiety hormone at high levels disables it's own brain receptor), IL-6, TNF-alpha (blocks insulin), resistin (increases insulin resistance and inflammation), PAI-2 (blocks clot breakdown, raising cardiovascular risk), retinol-binding protein 4 (impairs muscle glucose uptake), chemerin (recruits macrophages and directs fat to the belly), and visfatin. Only adiponectin declines with rising visceral fat. It improves insulin sensitivity, suppresses hepatic gluconeogenesis, and blocks IL-6 . Dr. Dawn describes GLP-1's neurobiological action: receptors in the hypothalamus, brainstem, hippocampus, and mesolimbic reward system, with the drugs quieting the brain's salience network so food loses its intrusive pull. Taste buds shift, sweet and salty become muted, and reward circuits stop firing on cheat foods—creating a window during which behavioral change becomes possible. Dr. Dawn frames group support through self-determination theory (autonomy, competence, relatedness), arguing GLP-1s create the cognitive bandwidth for behavioral programs to succeed. A Tufts study of patients discontinuing after 10% weight loss found those enrolled in behavioral support programs regained about three times less weight than usual-care controls, outperforming even medically-tailored meal plans. Group engagement doubled the time patients stayed on the medication. A November 2025 Nature study piggybacked on deep brain stimulation research at Penn. Electrodes implanted in the nucleus accumbens of post-bariatric patients recorded low-frequency brain activity surges during food-noise episodes on drug free patients. A third participant who started tirzepatide showed complete silencing of that signature—the first direct electrical confirmation that GLP-1s suppresses compulsive food thoughts in the reward center. RNA sequencing of adipose tissue from 25 obese patients before and after bariatric surgery, compared to 24 lean controls, revealed persistent epigenetic changes even after weight loss. Lipid-associated inflammatory macrophages drop but retain some of their pro-inflammatory epigenetics, explaining the well-known slippery slope back to obesity—and why Dr. Dawn suggests GLP-1s may work best as intermittent tools when behavioral maintenance starts slipping. An emailer asks about long-term smoking versus vaping data. Dr. Dawn notes there is no long-term data yet, but short-term evidence shows e-cigarettes contain nicotine, propylene glycol, reactive oxygen species, and nitrosamines, producing spirometry readings similar to mild COPD in otherwise-healthy vapers. Vaping over a year raises stroke relative risk by 1.62 and nearly doubles MI risk, and combining smoking and vaping produces a multiplicative rather than additive harm. Data on cancer will take decades to emerge. Researchers built a functioning underwater breathing apparatus for cockroaches with electrodes attached to brain and sensory organs allowing remote-controlled direction while preserving natural obstacle-navigation autonomy. The 10mm × 10mm sponge-based oxygen tank uses magnesium dioxide catalyzing hydrogen peroxide breakdown, delivering oxygen through silicone tubes to the roach's spiracles for up to three hours underwater. Deployemenet will improve search-and-rescue in flooded and collapsed structures where dogs cannot reach. A Science Advances paper from Yong Lin Kong's lab at Rice University describes 3D-printing electronic circuits directly onto living tissue. Researchers achieved microwave-focused annealing at sub-200-micrometer resolution. By selectively heating only conductive ink particles (copper, silver, gold) without damaging surrounding tissue, the technique enables printing circuits onto 3D-printed heart valves, tracheas, and ear scaffolds, potentially creating combined graft-and-sensor implants, ingestible diagnostic devices, and perhaps even decorative electronic tattoos. A single-shot reformulation of zanamivir (originally the inhaled flu drug Relenza) provided 76.1% flu protection in a 5,000-participant trial—far exceeding the roughly 40-45% offered by annual flu vaccines. Because zanamivir targets neuraminidase in a way that inactivates it if the virus tries to mutate around the drug, trapping newly-made viral copies inside their host cells, this approach works across all flu strains and could bypass the annual guessing game of trivalent vaccine formulation.

Ep 359: Women & Crime: Reconsidered is where we revisit our episode catalog and bring new insights, behind the scenes or updates. Brand new episodes are STILL every Tuesday! Original Airdate: 02/08/22 - This woman, like any loving mother would do anything to protect her kids from this unpredictable world turned into a highly overprotective mother who took the law into her own hands when her own son was molested by a Christian summer camp worker who had a previous history of child molestation. Many supported and heralded Ellie Nesler as a hero but that was before a sensational trial that would reveal a side of Ellie Nesler the public had not seen before and this side would raise serious doubt about Ellie's actions.

Today's poem is Northern Flicker Reconsidered by Susan Rich. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Maggie writes… “Once, during a Q&A after a reading, a woman raised her hand to ask, ‘What's with all the birds in your poems?' I had to laugh. She was right: the hawks, grackles, and starlings of my neighborhood have called and swooped into many of my poems. I told her that birds are wildlife that we all have access to, no matter where we live. Birds are everywhere … in cities, in suburbs, in the country. They make cameo appearances in many of my poems, and sometimes they're even the stars.” This show is made possible by gifts from listeners. Support The Slowdown today. Slowdownshow.org/donate

It is popular today to talk about truth in the teachings of Jesus that was suppressed by the church. This usually means the gnostic gospels or other content totally omitted from the Bible. But what if the suppression is even more ironic and nefarious? What if the main message in the book actually included in the Bible has been suppressed and has been staring us in the face the entire time? What if all the deconstruction is an inevitable result of this suppression combined with our current secular culture? In this teaching I explore these questions and more.

America has a hydrangea problem. In the best possible way. They're consistently among the best-selling flowering shrubs in the country, they colonize every garden center and big box supercenter from May to August, and, if you don't have a deer problem, you're likely to succumb to the latest plump, end-of-aisle offering every time you go out to buy some milk. Erin Schanen, The Impatient Gardener, and Founding Mixer, describes what has happened to us in one word: Hydrangification. Marianne did not want to do a hydrangea episode — Hydrangement is real, Leslie's got a bad case, and how much more can possibly be said? But Leslie disagreed and drafted in Scott Beuerlein — radio host, horticulturist at the Cincinnati Botanical Zoo and Botanical Garden, and Marianne's nemesis at GardenRant — to prove it. He had analogies. He had opinions. He had been thinking about hydrangeas all day.And Marianne was wrong. It turns out there is quite a lot left to say. Join them as they delve deep into the hydrangea addiction sweeping the country.___________________Please hit the subscribe button so we can keep you smiling while you hit the beautiful mess [your garden] out there.Full Show Notes at⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Garden Mixer Podcast's Substack⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠____________________Socials – Pick Your Platform:Follow us on Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@thegardenmixer⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Indulge us on TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@the.garden.mixer⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spar with us on X⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@gardenmixerpod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠“French Bistro” theme by Adieu Adieu.

Jeremy Hirshberg on Leadership, Burnout, Meaning, and Why Your Boss Shouldn't Sound Like ChatGPTJeremy Hirshberg — organizational psychologist, leadership consultant and executive coach  for Organizational Solutions, founder of Kaleidoscope Collaborative, and host of Resiliency Rounds and The Good Life, Reconsidered — joins the podcast for a wide-ranging conversation on AI, leadership, resilience, and what happens when technology starts moving faster than the human nervous system. Drawing on his work at the Center for Creative Leadership and Booz Allen Hamilton, Jeremy explores how organizations can integrate AI without losing empathy, creativity, psychological safety, or their collective soul.We discuss burnout, “AI theater,” executive anxiety, emotional intelligence, adaptability, meaning-making, and why the future belongs not simply to companies with the best technology — but to those combining high AI capability with being fully human. This taps into an interdependent cultural framework. Along the way we ask uncomfortable questions: What work should humans still own? What decisions should never be delegated to AI? Can mindfulness survive Slack notifications? And is your company innovating… or just panic-Googling the future with better branding?Credits:River is High, Ticketless TravelerCarl Reisman, guitar, singer, and songwriterJenny Goodwine, vocalsJames Singleton, bassJohnny Vidocovich, drumsDave Easley, steel guitarProduced by Morgan Orion Reismanfor more information, carlreisman@gmail.comCopyright 2025WCMI networking group A networking group for mindfulness-focused clinicians dedicated to learning together & collaborating for more information click here

In this episode of the Based Boomer Podcast on the EM Network, Mike De Virgilio examines the true meaning of the Great Commission in Matthew 28 and asks a question most modern Christians never consider: What does it actually mean to “disciple the nations”? Exploring the Greek word ethnē, this conversation tackles whether Christ’s command extends beyond personal evangelism into culture, government, law, education, and society itself. Can nations be discipled? What would a truly Christian civilization look like? And why has much of the modern Church abandoned this vision? This episode dives into: The meaning of “all nations” in Matthew 28 Christianity and cultural transformation The relationship between Church and nation The myth of “private faith” Eschatology and the future of Christian civilization Why modern evangelicalism shrank the Great Commission If you've ever wondered whether Christianity applies to every sphere of life — this conversation is for you.

This week I'm sharing the fourth and final installment from the day-long conference convened by the Institute for America, China, and the Future of Global Affairs (ACF) at Johns Hopkins SAIS on April 3rd in Washington — “The China Debate We're Not Having: Politics, Technology, and the Road Ahead.” The first three episodes featured Jessica Chen Weiss's opening remarks and the panels on what China wants, what the United States wants, and tech rivalry and competing visions of the future. This final installment is a fireside conversation between Henry Farrell and Alondra Nelson, followed by Jessica's closing remarks.Once again, my deep thanks to Jessica Chen Weiss, ACF's inaugural faculty director, for organizing this terrific conference and for so generously letting me share this audio with Sinica listeners.Henry Farrell, the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Agora Institute Professor of International Affairs at SAIS, sits down with Alondra Nelson — Harold F. Linder Professor of Social Science at the Institute for Advanced Study and former Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy — for what turns out to be the day's most generative reframing of the AI race. Henry begins by asking how it is that ideas once confined to 1980s science fiction — the singularity, AGI, brains-in-vats — have come to anchor mainstream American AI policy discourse. Alondra traces the genealogy back to the “Californian ideology” and the long history of outré thinking in Silicon Valley, but her real point is that something has shifted: U.S. negative sentiment around AI has been climbing and plateauing high since 2022, even as adoption has spread — the opposite of the usual technology-acceptance curve, and the opposite of what's happening in China, Nigeria, or Brazil.From there the conversation opens up into what I found to be its richest vein: the contrast between a Cartesian, disembodied American conception of AI — “we're working on the brains,” as Sam Altman put it when OpenAI shut down its robotics team in 2022 — and a more embodied approach that integrates the cognitive and the physical, which is part of what's powered China's advances in advanced manufacturing and robotics. Alondra is sharp on the costs of the brain-in-a-vat framing: it treats AI as a state of exception in which existing laws and institutions somehow don't apply, and it lets us float aspirational claims (”AI will cure cancer”) that elide all the clunky institutional stewardship actually required to get from aspiration to outcome.She also offers an incisive reading of the Trump administration's AI policy — which, she argues, is misleadingly described as “deregulatory.” Between export controls, the golden share in Intel, immigration restrictions on STEM talent, and the administration's tight stewardship of who wins and who loses in the AI ecosystem, this is industrial policy by another name — and a narrowing of democratic input over decisions of enormous infrastructural consequence.The conversation closes with Henry asking what a small-d democratic successor administration ought to do, and Alondra's answer is bracingly practical: get rid of the state of exception, take the material supply chain of AI seriously (data centers, electricity, critical minerals, communities), let state-level policy generate evidence about what works, and aim for high-watermark aspirations — North Stars, in the spirit of the AI Bill of Rights — rather than pretending the technology itself will deliver our values.Jessica then offers her closing remarks, thanking the panelists, previewing the ACF Insights Series, and putting out the call for new junior fellows at the Institute.Participants:Alondra Nelson, Harold F.

In this episode, we're joined by Debra Zaslow—author and storyteller—who shares her personal experience with hormone replacement therapy, including some immediate and unexpected effects that took her by surprise.From that starting point, we explore several unexpected ideas: Estrogen alone may reduce breast cancer risk in certain groups  Not all “progesterone” is the same—synthetic versions can behave very differently  The way a hormone is delivered (pill vs patch vs topical) can significantly change its effects  Hormones are often prescribed without measuring levels—unlike almost every other hormone in medicine  Many key hormones, including estrogen and testosterone, are made from cholesterol Dr. Deborah Gordon and I revisit hormone therapy in response to your strong interest in the topic. The conversation moves from lived experience to clinical nuance—how different formulations behave, why dosing and monitoring matter, and how to think more precisely about risks and benefits, especially in menopause and in more complex settings like cancer history.A candid, grounded discussion for anyone trying to make sense of hormones beyond the headlines.Dawn Lemanne, MD Oregon Integrative OncologyLeave no stone unturned.Deborah Gordon, MDNorthwest Wellness and Memory CenterBuilding Healthy Brains

We wrap up the first group of episodes in our Reconsidered Leader series--bringing the theoretical to a close and opening up with Scripture for grouping #2.  Here, we look into the modern philosophical assumptions regarding leadership, whose flagship ideas belong to Hobbes and Nietzsche. Opposed to both is the Christian understanding of peace and prayer, and this consideration of "warring factions" brings our theoretical section to a fitting end. With a summer sabbatical on order, we will be on break from the Reconsidered Leader, but will pick back up with part 2 in July! Iowa Catholic Radio Network Shows:Be Not Afraid with Fr.

With this episode, we point out how "followership," that is obedience and discipleship, not only make leadership possible in the first place, but are also a base reality for all leaders--because even they have to follow someone! We look at the way Jesus Christ is both the perfect example of a leader AND the perfect form of obedience, and why such understandings chaff at the world's understanding of things so profoundly!

We continue along not only with the reconsidered leader, but alighting upon the concept of holiness once more. This time, we utilize the theory of French Thinker Rene Girard and his theory regarding violence in religion and the scapegoat to make sense of two things. 1) How does Jesus Christ understand Himself to be "set apart," that is, Holy, in contradistinction to the rival political groups in first century Palestine? 2) How must leaders who would lead like Jesus both understand why scapegoating happens, and how it is that the Holiness Christ calls us to unravels the power of the scapegoat?

We sit down with Craig Fehrman to discuss This Vast Enterprise: A New History of Lewis and Clark and why the expedition only comes into focus when we follow the people history usually pushes to the margins—and when we take Native nations seriously as powers, not scenery.If you care about American history, primary sources, archival research, and how interpretation changes when new evidence appears, this episode is for you. We explore Thomas Jefferson as the “mainspring” behind the mission, the mistaken dream of an easy water route to the Pacific, and the hard reality of distance, terrain, and the Rocky Mountains.We also dive into diplomacy and danger along the Missouri River, where the Lakota Nation and other Native powers were making strategic decisions of their own. Fehrman's rotating point-of-view method makes familiar moments feel new by asking what the same event looked like from the other side.We discuss leadership and military culture in 1804—why Lewis and Clark's style of discipline, trust, and shared responsibility differed sharply from Army norms—and how figures like John Ordway helped make the expedition function day to day. We also confront the hardest truths, including York under enslavement and Sacagawea as a teenage survivor whose role became indispensable.Subscribe, share with a history-loving friend, and leave a review so more listeners can find the show.

We keep our reconsidered leader arc going, this time considering the Scriptural concept of Holiness and what it has to teach us about leadership that imitates Our Lord. Dispelling misconceptions regarding the ideas of holiness, we look to the Old Testament to dwell on the concept of election (both for persons and people), and dive into the social and political situation on the ground during the New Testament to help look at Jesus's understanding of the point of holiness, and the implications this has for leadership.   Iowa Catholic Radio Network Shows:Be Not Afraid with Fr.
