Want to “get back to how it used to be”?Cass and Kathryn's reframe: chasing the spark is usually the wrong goal—because it's often just a mask for coasting, quitting, and emotional decision-making.In Ep447 of The ‘NEW' Marriage, they break down what “recreating the spark” actually means, why “settling” is downstream of coasting, and how to rebuild passion through growth—not nostalgia.
Part Two of this week's episode: our chat with the brilliant Paul Tonkinson is finally here!
Recorded live from Contact in the Desert 2026, we welcome filmmaker, researcher, and former MUFON Canada national director Luigi Vendittelli for an in-depth conversation about one of the most iconic and controversial stories in ufology.Luigi takes us behind the scenes of his groundbreaking documentary S4: The Bob Lazar Story (2026), detailing the years he spent collaborating directly with Bob Lazar. Together, they meticulously reconstructed the secretive S-4 facility at Papoose Lake—complete with its hidden hangars inside the mountain—and the legendary “Sport Model” craft, using cutting-edge digital tools like Unreal Engine 5 and Blender for forensic accuracy. From the technical challenges of bringing Lazar's descriptions to vivid, to newly uncovered evidence (including a rare 1942 map confirming the site's location), Luigi shares what it was like to verify and visualize details that have fueled decades of debate. We explore the reverse-engineering claims, the physics-defying propulsion systems, the personal toll on Lazar, and why this reconstruction feels more real than ever. Whether you're a longtime skeptic, a dedicated believer, or somewhere in between, this episode dives deep into the painstaking effort to honor and illuminate one of ufology's most enduring narratives.

In this episode of Space Cafe Radio, host Torsten Kriening, Publisher of SpaceWatch.Global, sits down with Marshall Smith, CEO of Starlab Space, at the 41st Space Symposium in Colorado Springs. The conversation reconnects a story that began in Bremen back in 2018, when Marshall was wiring together SLS, Orion, and Gateway at NASA, and now finds him on the other side, building the commercial future he once championed from inside the agency.From NASA Insider to Commercial BuilderMarshall reflects on his transition from NASA, where he was always "commercial at heart" - pushing the system to go faster, do things differently, and question whether all those requirements were truly necessary. Now leading Starlab, he gets to put those convictions into action.The Time is Now for Commercial LEO"Now's the time to turn over Low Earth Orbit to commercial enterprise."After 54 years of space stations and more than two decades of permanent crewed presence on the ISS, the industry has learned enough. The technology readiness is there. The standards are there. The time has come for commercial enterprise to take over LEO so NASA can focus on the harder things- Moon, Mars, and beyond.Where Starlab Stands TodayMarshall reveals concrete progress: Starlab is past Critical Design Review with NASA (completed in December), in manufacturing, building structures, with long-lead items in process. They're roughly five to six years into the typical six-to-ten-year development cycle for a complex space vehicle. Some say they haven't hit the hard part yet, but Marshall responds: "We have the capability, we have the experience. Eyes wide open."The Real Gap RiskThe ISS retires around 2030. China's space station is operational today. Marshall is candid about the leaks, the aging equipment, the obsolete components, and the uncertainty about whether extension to 2030 or 2032 will be possible. Starlab's launch target is 2029 - and they intend to be there before the gap opens.Recreating the ISS Partnership - CommerciallyStarlab is a joint venture with Voyager as majority shareholder, joined by Airbus, Mitsubishi, MDA, Palantir, and Hilton -a multinational structure that recreates the ISS partnership at a commercial and business level. The same companies that built parts of the ISS are now building the commercial successor.Starship as the Launch PlanMarshall explains why he's not worried: Starship has already been to orbit, and Starlab only needs to reach orbit and deploy - no Moon landing required. By the time Starlab launches, Starship will likely be on its seventh version.The Manufacturing VisionMarshall hints at semiconductor manufacturing, biopharma, pill production, fiber optics, and a proprietary concept that could revolutionize the pace of in-orbit manufacturing. He predicts the demand will be so great that companies might want their own dedicated Starlab modules - and that copies could be built in roughly one to two years.The iPhone Moment for Space Stations"In 2007, somebody built a platform called an iPhone. It had a few games, didn't even do FaceTime. Now you can't walk around without your phone. CLDs are platforms. Ten years after operations begin, you're going to see things you would've never imagined - maybe ordering a replacement heart tuned to your DNA, printed in space."On Artemis 2Having been involved in Artemis 1 and 2 at NASA, Marshall shares his personal joy at the mission's success. For him, it's a signal to the world that humanity is going back to deep space, to the Moon's surface, building Moon bases, going to Mars.The Bigger Mission"It's about becoming a multi-planet species. Maybe one day becoming a multi-stellar species. I know that sounds crazy to some people. That's why I do this. Because I don't want to see us being here locked on this planet a thousand years from now."Marshall draws the parallel to the 1400s - when explorers asked "what if we cross this big body of water?" - and now humans are asking the same question about the void of vacuum. The exploration accelerates. We were built for this.For Listeners Who Think BigThis is a conversation about commercial space stations, the urgency of LEO transition, the iPhone-platform future of orbital manufacturing, and what it means to become a multi-planet species.Space Café Radio brings you talks, interviews, and reports from the team of SpaceWatchers while out on the road.

Experts hope a new floating wetland project will bring back natural “edge habitat” that disappeared when developers reshaped Boston's perimeter with landfill and seawalls. Recreating those destroyed coastal environments can help protect cities as climate change brings rising sea levels, increases stormwater runoff and disrupts ecosystems.

In this episode, Ben explores how confidence is often linked to the conditions surrounding our work rather than being a fixed personal trait. When people lose confidence, it can feel as though something internal has changed. However, Ben suggests that confidence is frequently influenced by external factors such as preparation, clarity, experience and support. One practical approach is to reflect on situations where you previously felt confident and performed well. By identifying the conditions that were present in those situations, you can begin to recreate them and give yourself a better foundation for confidence again. This perspective helps leaders focus on shaping the environment and conditions that support confidence rather than trying to force confidence through willpower alone.

Most insurance producers spend their entire careers trying to fit in. They use the same scripts, wear the same suits, and pitch the same spreadsheets. But here is the hard truth: if you look like everybody else, you will be overlooked. In a crowded market, people pay a premium for scarcity.In this solo episode, I share my personal journey from being a "fat kid" in Size Husky jeans to a pro baseball player and, ultimately, a founder. I break down the mental trap of how the fear of judgment, comparison, and failure kills more insurance books than the competition ever could. We discuss the 20-60-20 Rule of prospect psychology, the four pillars of the Brand Authority Blueprint, and why elite producers measure themselves against the best version of themselves rather than their peers.

Meanwhile, Minecraft, the Minions and Simpsons-style characters are joining the legions of copycats. FRANCE 24's Technology Correspondent Peter O'Brien looks at how these videos are actually made.

Why did mainstream Christianity adopt doctrines that conflict with the Bible? In this short, I share my journey after leaving Catholicism—examining the 300s church councils, how authority was claimed, and why changing the Sabbath matters.

Lords: Matt https://mtrop.net/ Cort Topics: Doom Modding and You The Boston Marathon Stampede This 1989 Shigeru Miyamoto quote. "When pornography escalates, it eventually crosses into the grotesque. I think the world of 'hidden secrets' in games has almost reached that same grotesque level. It's reached a point where it isn't measured by common sense anymore. It's just people getting bored and looking for stronger and stronger stimulation. We've hit a wall. When you're at the point where you have no choice but to go 'grotesque,' you have to start thinking of new ways to use the medium." https://shmuplations.com/itoimiyamoto/ Dammit I'm Mad by Demetri Martin https://www.reddit.com/r/Poetry/comments/zc6iic/poem_dammit_im_mad_by_demetri_martin/ Microtopics: Plugging in the middle of someone else's topic.

Gill Paul discusses Scandalous Women, the 1960s publishing world, and the iconic female authors who redefined storytelling in this backlist feature. Let's get some literary hinges to our reading lives in this backlist feature. This week's Book Gang conversation brings us together with international bestselling author Gill Paul to talk about Scandalous Women. Paul transports readers into the electric, high-stakes world of 1960s publishing, where two women didn't just write bestselling books—they changed what women were allowed to write about at all. If you've ever wondered what really happens behind the scenes of the books we love (the deals, the risks, the moments that quietly reshape an entire industry), this conversation is such a treat with a true insider. In this fascinating conversation, we discuss:
In this episode of Case Studies, Casey sits back down with Ty Williams, senior executive at Sunrun and one of the most respected leaders in the direct sales industry, for a deeper, more evolved conversation on leadership, reinvention, and staying relevant in a rapidly changing world.Ty shares how his thinking has sharpened through new challenges at scale, from navigating executive leadership to preparing for massive shifts in technology, energy, and the workforce. He introduces the idea of “sales craft” as something far greater than performance, a framework for life built on adaptability, judgment, and continuous growth.Together, he and Casey explore why comfort is often the biggest threat to long term success, how great leaders consistently recreate themselves, and what it means to operate with urgency in moments that truly matter. Ty also opens up about his obsession with optionality, his fear of stagnation, and the internal standard of always “impressing yourself.”This episode targets entrepreneurs and leaders who want to evolve with intention, embrace change, and refuse to settle at any stage of the journey.

Blue has been an important colour in art and decoration since ancient times. The semi-precious stone lapis lazuli was used in ancient Egypt for jewellery and ornament and later, in the Renaissance, to make the pigment ultramarine, the most expensive of all pigments. For our guest this week Josh Blue from @bluestarseedco it represents the pinnacle of cannabis expression. The highly anticipated offering from his latest drop a blueberry blast from the past the infamous “Blue Moonshine” the indica leaning plant from DJ Shorts blue family Josh has put his sights on recreating this classic and this drop brings him and you one step closer to that coveted blueberry zone.

In 1980, the FIA issued a new set of competition regulations for GT and Rally car classes known as Group B. These rules allowed manufacturers wide latitude on design and materials- and most importantly, no restriction on forced induction. Carmakers were also required to build fewer road car versions (just 200) to meet homologation. The result was an astounding array of racing brutes like the Audi Quattro, Ford RS200, Peugeot 205 T16 and of course the Lancia 037. But the speed and danger of Group B Rally brought things to an abrupt end and guaranteed the rarity of these cars... and that's where Brandon Hegedus of Hegedus Automobili comes in. He's a master craftsman who recreates halo cars (with some modern tweaks). Call them replicas, tributes, whatever- they are meticulously built and very impressive.

In this episode, we sit down player development coach Justin Cooper to unpack what player development really means, beyond drills and workouts. Justin shares his holistic philosophy of meeting each athlete where they are, empowering them to take ownership of their growth, and blending live, constraint-based training with intentional technical work. From youth athletes to pros, he walks us through how he builds individualized plans rooted in reality, context, and honest conversation.We also dive deep into the contrast between in-season and off-season training, the emotional side of development, and how to align with head coaches while working in the private sector. Justin explains why “living in reality” is the foundation of in-season success, why micro-workouts are underrated, and why going live is essential for real growth. Whether you're a trainer, team coach, or serious player, this episode is packed with actionable insight on how to structure workouts, build buy-in, and create environments that truly translate to game performance.Timestamps00:00 Weather talk, travel stories, and the infamous “free throw game” 08:40 Introduction to Justin Cooper and his player development background 09:29 What player development really means: meeting the athlete where they are 11:47 Blending training styles: live play, constraints, and skill work 13:47 In-season philosophy: living in reality and maximizing current role 15:25 Aligning with head coaches and speaking the same language 16:20 The importance of micro-workouts during the season 18:57 Player ownership and identity shifts 22:06 Managing emotions and controlling what you can control 24:15 Off-season approach: vision, planning, and building buy-in 26:40 Measuring progress without waiting for game results 29:12 Ideal off-season ratios: live vs. on-air work 31:39 Creating live environments with pros and managing risk 33:25 Coaching the defense and structuring live reps 35:15 The evolution of live training and player buy-in 36:54 Recreating game environments with limited resources 39:00 Teaching reads through guided defense and feel-based coachingCoaching Resources: https://byanymeanscoaches.com/BAM Blueprint Book: https://byanymeanscoaches.com/blueprint-bookIf you enjoyed this episode, share it with another coach or trainer who's serious about evolving their approach.

In this episode, Martin Atkins (Public Image Ltd., Killing Joke, Pigface) joins the show from his Post-Punk and Industrial Music Museum to discuss the upcoming 45th-anniversary recreation of Public Image Ltd.'s third album, The Flowers of Romance. On Saturday, April 11, Martin returns to Reggie's in Chicago with a "murderers' row" of talent, including Chris Connelly, Robert Byrne, Leyla Royale, Orville Kline, Alicia Gaines, and Alan Lake, to bring the stark, experimental, and percussive record back to the stage. Martin reflects on the "Music Concrete" nature of the original recording sessions, which were defined by improvisation and disregard for traditional rock structures. He shares fascinating stories behind the album's signature sounds, such as the ticking of a Mickey Mouse watch used for the track "Four Enclosed Walls" and the CO2 fire extinguisher that opens "Under the House". He also sheds light on the band's internal dynamics during that era, including the departure of bassist Jah Wobble and Keith Levene's intense focus on video game. The conversation also covers Martin's recent performance of Killing Joke's "Extremities" and his complex, perhaps a bit strained, relationship with John Lydon. Martin discusses how his museum has become a surprising hub for younger generations who are just now discovering the textures and stories of the post-punk movement. I adore Martin, respect his career and business mind, and always love talking with him. Hope you enjoy the chat, and to see you at Reggie's! ### This episode is brought to you by Exploding House Printing.

In this inspiring conversation, Darin sits down with Javant Benton, the creator behind the popular platform Healthy Vegan Eating, whose personal health crisis led him to completely transform his life through food. After facing pre-diabetes, hypertension, and even the possibility of lymphoma, Benton realized he had to radically change the trajectory of his health. What followed was a deep exploration into nutrition, whole foods, and the power of a plant-forward lifestyle. Through trial, error, and relentless curiosity, Benton lost 85 pounds and began developing creative plant-based recipes that replicate the comfort foods people love—without the refined sugars, oils, and processed ingredients that damage long-term health. In this episode, Benton shares how diet became the foundation of his healing, why most people struggle to adopt healthier eating habits, and how creating "bridge foods" can help people transition toward better health without feeling deprived. What You'll Learn How a looming health crisis forced Benton to completely rethink his diet and lifestyle Why many people don't take their health seriously until a major wake-up call The confusion people face when trying to navigate conflicting nutrition advice How Benton lost 85 pounds and reversed major health risks through diet Why plant-based eating doesn't have to feel restrictive or boring The concept of "bridge foods" that help people transition to healthier diets How recreating comfort foods can help people adopt healthier habits Why cooking and preparing whole foods can become an act of self-care The cultural conditioning around meat consumption and protein myths How improving your diet often triggers improvements in other areas of life Chapters 00:00:00 – The deeper mission behind SuperLife and creating a roadmap to true health 00:02:11 – Javon's upbringing and how environment shapes lifelong habits 00:03:17 – Why epigenetics proves your health is not predetermined 00:04:00 – The slow buildup of disease: weight gain, pre-diabetes, and hypertension 00:04:47 – The moment everything changed: a potential lymphoma diagnosis 00:06:02 – Why fear is often the catalyst for real transformation 00:06:39 – The hidden dangers of modern food: chemicals, plastics, and processed diets 00:08:24 – Searching for answers: confusion in the world of nutrition advice 00:09:16 – The realization that food—not just exercise—determines your outcome 00:10:10 – The turning point: discovering evidence-based nutrition 00:11:21 – Overcoming peer pressure and committing fully to change 00:12:19 – The truth about fish, toxins, and environmental contamination 00:13:14 – The importance of nutrient awareness on a fully plant-based diet 00:14:01 – Why Javon ultimately chose a fully vegan lifestyle 00:14:27 – The bigger issue: industrial pollution and bioaccumulation in food 00:16:54 – The reality of factory farming and toxic meat consumption 00:18:03 – Why "clean food" matters more than diet labels 00:18:43 – Becoming your own health advocate and taking ownership 00:19:54 – Losing 85 pounds and inspiring others through visible transformation 00:20:46 – The real barrier: people don't want to give up the foods they love 00:21:04 – The breakthrough idea: making unhealthy foods healthy 00:21:28 – Recreating comfort foods without refined sugar, oil, or processed ingredients 00:22:12 – The trial-and-error process behind building healthy recipes 00:22:49 – Eliminating excuses: making healthy eating accessible for everyone 00:23:12 – "Don't change what you eat—change how you make it" 00:24:30 – Why plant-based eating is far more diverse than people think 00:25:23 – The power of "bridging" instead of forcing drastic change 00:25:53 – Shocking moments when people couldn't tell plant-based from meat 00:26:52 – The biggest mistake in the health space: no middle ground 00:28:14 – Why meeting people where they are is the key to lasting change 00:30:28 – The truth: you don't need to go all-in to benefit from plants 00:31:14 – Why personalization matters more than strict diet rules 00:32:35 – The "middleman" realization: going straight to plant nutrients 00:33:07 – The ethical and emotional shift around food choices 00:34:27 – Why eating plants becomes a form of self-respect and alignment 00:35:06 – How nutrition improves self-esteem and overall life choices 00:35:18 – "You don't know how good it feels to feel good" 00:36:13 – The raw truth: change often starts from selfish survival 00:36:49 – Cultural conditioning around food and breaking free from it 00:37:23 – Why leading by example is more powerful than preaching 00:38:09 – You can't force awareness—people must be ready 00:39:09 – Why you don't have to wait for a health crisis to change 00:40:09 – Debunking extreme diet trends and the importance of balance 00:41:05 – The two-year journey of creating the cookbook 00:42:12 – The real mission: helping people, not selling books 00:43:08 – Free access to hundreds of recipes and removing barriers 00:44:10 – Why passion makes even the hardest work enjoyable 00:44:59 – Final message: meet yourself where you are and start there Thank You to Our Sponsors Therasage: Go to www.therasage.com and use code DARIN at checkout for 15% off Bite Toothpaste: Go to trybite.com/DARIN20 or use code DARIN20 for 20% off your first order.

If we can recreate the foods people already love using whole, nourishing ingredients, we remove the barrier of deprivation—and suddenly living a healthier life becomes something people actually want to do.
In this episode of The Spiritual Investor Podcast, I share why certainty and expectation are not the same thing and what it actually costs you to confuse the two, and how the new version of you is the only place from which you can call in everything you want. This episode explores what it means to stop recreating from the past, why your external world shifts when you shift, and how breaking the structure doesn't require suffering — it requires commitment to living as the new version of you right now. In this conversation, I share: Why certainty carries only your power while expectations carry neediness How to let go of results without losing direction Why your to-do list is a function of your energy and not the other way around What it really means to break the structure without waiting for a crisis to wake you up How I called in a release so powerful it took down a 70-year-old barn on my property This episode is an invitation to stop waiting for circumstances to change before you step into who you already are, and to recognize that the new version of you is available right now — not after the evidence shows up. If you're feeling called to go deeper with this work, the next round of the Spiritual Investor Mastermind begins May 5th. It's a 12-week container where you go vertical — into the markets, into intelligent portfolio design, and into the new version of yourself.

Chuck Todd surveys a political landscape where multiple crises are converging on the Trump administration simultaneously — and none of them are going well. The Iran war, which Chuck reiterates is a war of choice, appears to be devouring Trump's presidency: the administration burned through nearly $6 billion in munitions in just two days, is sending contradictory messages of reassurance and escalation that appear designed to manipulate markets, and seems to be operating entirely by the seat of its pants. He warns that asymmetric warfare has never gone well for the United States, that energy markets are in turmoil as Iran deliberately tries to inflict economic pain, that the threat of stagflation and energy shortages is very real, and that Trump's threat to use the Fed to shape oil markets has alarmed economists. He argues that if Trump could undo the war he would — but this won't be Venezuela 2.0, because there's no opposition on the ground to coordinate with, you can't change a regime without boots on the ground that Trump won't commit, and if the regime simply survives, that counts as victory for Iran. Meanwhile, Trump naively buys Putin's claim that Russia isn't helping Iran with targeting, and that new polling shows a majority of Americans oppose the war — with MAGA influencers notably against it even as older rank-and-file supporters stick with Trump. Beyond Iran, Chuck hits the Ticketmaster settlement as proof that Trump talks a big populist game but the lobbyists always win, warns that a partial DHS shutdown risks snarling air travel and punishing the flying public while ICE has already been funded, and cautions Democrats not to overplay their hand on the shutdown. Then, John Adams, editor of the Montana Free Press, joins the Chuck Toddcast to make the case that local journalism has been in crisis — and that saving it might be one of the most important things Americans can do for their democracy. Adams is on the show to promote Local News Day on April 9th, a nationwide effort involving 700 local newsrooms aimed not at fundraising but at spreading awareness. He traces the origin story of the Montana Free Press back to his appearance in the documentary "Dark Money", a story about outside money quietly trying to buy Montana politics at the local level with zero disclosure — and the journalists best positioned to expose it were losing their jobs. Adams argues the economics of local news changed drastically as advertising revenue collapsed and audiences became hypnotized by social media and smartphones, but that the need and appetite for local reporting never went away. The conversation turns to the deeper consequences of local news deserts: the loss of trusted community voices created a vacuum that bred distrust in the national press, because people no longer had local "character references" — journalists they knew and saw at the grocery store — to anchor their understanding of how media works.

Interview Only w/ John Adams - Bringing Local News Back From The Brink John Adams, editor of the Montana Free Press, joins the Chuck Toddcast to make the case that local journalism has been in crisis — and that saving it might be one of the most important things Americans can do for their democracy. Adams is on the show to promote Local News Day on April 9th, a nationwide effort involving 700 local newsrooms aimed not at fundraising but at spreading awareness. He traces the origin story of the Montana Free Press back to his appearance in the documentary "Dark Money", a story about outside money quietly trying to buy Montana politics at the local level with zero disclosure — and the journalists best positioned to expose it were losing their jobs. Adams argues the economics of local news changed drastically as advertising revenue collapsed and audiences became hypnotized by social media and smartphones, but that the need and appetite for local reporting never went away. The conversation turns to the deeper consequences of local news deserts: the loss of trusted community voices created a vacuum that bred distrust in the national press, because people no longer had local "character references" — journalists they knew and saw at the grocery store — to anchor their understanding of how media works. Adams warns that the rise of AI-generated misinformation makes reliable local sources more important than ever, noting that while younger people tend to be savvier at spotting junk online, older generations are particularly vulnerable. They close by noting that strong local news doesn't just serve democracy — it helps local businesses target customers, creating an economic ecosystem that benefits everyone — and that journalism ultimately has to reach enough people to really matter, which is exactly what Local News Day at localnewsday.org is designed to help make possible.

Join us as Amelia shares the debugging story nobody tells you about - how her vector store DB couldn't surface specific data until she tested it with simplified data from ChatGPT. Amelia walks through her journey from throwing JIRA tickets into a large language model without understanding pipelines or data cleaning, to discovering why her production vector store was failing. You'll learn about the gap between chatting with data and getting accurate connections, how to validate vector similarity search results, the difference between production and synthetic test data, and practical troubleshooting workflows for AWS vector stores. This episode reveals the messy reality of RAG systems - when everything seems fine but the outputs are subtly wrong, and how testing with simplified data can expose what production complexity hides.

Nigel Baker: The Scrum Master Mistake of Copy-Pasting Success Instead of Recreating the Journey Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. "I was trying to recreate the results of our team, not recreate the journey. And that is what killed me to begin with." - Nigel Baker Nigel fell into Scrum Mastery almost by accident. Working at British Telecom in 2002—before most people had even heard of Scrum—his team adopted it not to speed up, but to add rigor to an already fast-moving tactical unit full of "pirates" who could get stuff done but needed guardrails. His first Scrum Master, Geoff Watts, got promoted and moved on, leaving a vacancy. Nigel was the third person asked—and the first to say yes. He loved the role, but his earliest mistake became his most enduring lesson. On his very first daily Scrum, Nigel brought a big leather book and wrote down what every team member was doing, acting like a proto-project manager collecting status reports. The team already had all this information in their system—he was unconsciously positioning himself as the authority figure, having people report to him rather than to each other. As Nigel evolved into an Agile Coach, the bigger failure emerged: trying to copy-paste the process that worked with his first team onto other teams, recreating the results rather than the journey that got them there. Each team needs to evolve its own process—there are no shortcuts to that growth. In this episode, we refer to the importance of self-awareness and servant leadership in the Scrum Master role. Self-reflection Question: Are you trying to replicate a successful process from a previous team, or are you investing in helping your current team discover their own path to effectiveness?

Are your kids too clean for their own good? Amish children experience 90% less asthma than the national average—not despite getting dirty, but because of it. When scientists analyzed the dust in their farmhouses, they discovered an invisible ecosystem that was training immune systems to be resilient instead of reactive. In his episode, host Jason Wachob explores the groundbreaking research behind the "hygiene hypothesis" and its implications for modern parents raising kids in an increasingly sanitized world. This discovery is forcing us to rethink everything about dirt, bacteria, and health. And it's already led to treatments used by 100+ million people worldwide. Are we too clean for our own good?

In this Day 8 episode of 12 Days of Divorce Christmas, Coach Tiffini joins me to unpack what actually happens inside your nervous system when you try to bring old traditions into a new life after divorce...especially in this in-between week between the holidays and the New Year.Through an IFS (Internal Family Systems) lens, we talk about the protective parts that step in when traditions carry grief, memory, and expectation. Not because you're doing it wrong—but because your system may not feel safe enough yet to repeat what once belonged to a different life.This isn't about mindset. It's not about trying harder. And it's not about forcing yourself to “make it meaningful.”It's about understanding why recreating traditions after divorce can backfire—and how to stop fighting the resistance long enough to listen to what your body is actually asking for.If the holidays after divorce feel emotionally confusing, muted, or harder than you expected—especially as New Year approaches—this episode will help you make sense of that without judging yourself or rushing the process.Your nervous system is doing exactly what it's designed to do.Join Dear Divorce Diary Premium to access the full 12 Days of Divorce Christmas.Capacity builds in connection.

In this episode of The Timeout, Dwyane and Bob talk about the kind of check-ins men don’t always make space for — the simple “you good?” that actually means something. They get into how they’ve both learned to look out for their people in a more real way, not just through jokes or quick texts. They touch on the basketball stuff that’s been on their minds lately — the Jordan and LeBron conversation, Steph lacing up a pair of Way of Wades, CP3 retiring, and how it feels when younger players show love to moments from their era. Dwyane shares a bit about what life’s been like off the court: hiking with his wife even though he hates nature, filming in Rome, and trying to plan her 50th with all the emotions that come with it. He also talks about turning 44 and paying closer attention to his health. They also go back and forth on the league right now — why the All-Star Game feels off, and why the in-season tournament actually adds something.

This week on Pathology with Dr. Priya, a Zone 7 series, Dr. Priya Banerjee joins Sheryl McCollum to share why revisiting a cold-case scene, sometimes decades later, can completely shift an investigation. When she traveled for hours to inspect an identical car tied to a cold case, she discovered details impossible to see on paper. They talk about how vehicles can become part of the forensic story, why the setting itself matters, and how today’s technology can clarify what investigators once assumed. From seat position to power locks, their conversation highlights what’s lost when professionals rely only on reports and what’s gained when they return to the scene.
