Skip the banter: 00:05:54 (give or take a minute depending on ads in the beginning) When Iana Kasian moved to Los Angeles, she had dreams of a new life, one filled with family, safety, and stability. Instead, she crossed paths with Blake Leibel, a man born into wealth and obsessed with control. On paper, he was a Hollywood creative with a dark, surreal graphic novel to his name. But behind closed doors, his fantasies spilled into reality in the most brutal way imaginable. Allison tells us the rest of this story that ends with a mother's scream and a detail from the crime scene that still haunts investigators. Support us and become a Patron!

“The rain could turn to gold and still your thirst would not be slaked,” the Buddha said. He was pointing to the endless cycle of craving, the restless thirst that keeps us searching outside ourselves for satisfaction. Even if we were showered with gold, our longing would not end. So how do we free ourselves from this thirst? In this Fan Favorite episode, we look for the answer in understanding the connection between emptiness and craving.   When Buddhism speaks of emptiness (shunyata), it doesn't mean that nothing exists. It means that nothing exists inherently or independently. Everything arises because of many causes and conditions.   Think about a table. It seems to be a table all on its own. But in truth, it depends on wood, on carpenters, on the label "table," and on our own minds to recognize it. Without these causes (and many more), the table as we know it doesn't exist. Even beauty works this way. If we see a flower as beautiful, we think the beauty is “out there.” Yet without our mind, that beauty would never appear. Emptiness reveals that our world is far more fluid and interdependent than it seems.   The Buddha described craving as tanha, which literally means thirst. This isn't just enjoying things; it's clinging to them for happiness or pleasure. He compared it to tasting honey on a razor's edge. The first taste is sweet, but pain follows. That's what happens when we cling to pleasures, possessions, or people: we suffer when they change, disappear, or fall short of our hopes. Craving always promises satisfaction but never delivers.   At the root of craving is a misunderstanding. We think things exist solidly and permanently, as if beauty, pleasure, or comfort live inside them. But emptiness shows us this isn't true.   When you enjoy a sunset, your mind is part of creating that beauty. When you savor a meal, your mind is shaping the pleasure. But we don't see it this way. We believe the joy is built into the object itself. So we cling, hoping to hold it forever.   Once we understand emptiness, craving begins to dissolve. We see the truth: things are impermanent, interdependent, and shaped by the mind. We can still enjoy them, but we don't need to grasp so tightly.   The Buddha taught that the end of craving is the end of suffering. When we realize emptiness, ignorance loosens its grip. We don't stop enjoying life! We stop demanding that impermanent things give us permanent happiness. Instead of chasing after more, we can finally enjoy and relax in freedom.   References and Links Buddha.The Dhammapada. Translated by Gil Fronsdale. (Kindle).

In this episode of Untidy, Matilda and Hannah are back with neuroscientist, Dr Sarah McKay, author of The Women’s Brain Book, Baby Brain, and Brain Health for Dummies, to flip the script about our brains in midlife. Are we really the dysfunctional crones the social narrative would have us believe? They dig into why we forget words, lose our keys, stumble through brain fog, and rage-sweat at night. Sarah explains these aren’t signs of a slow decline, but instead a time of transformation to something better. She reveals the good news that our brains are moving towards their peak in adaptability, strategic thinking, wisdom, and cognitive flexibility in midlife. This is your permission slip to celebrate the dawn of confidently giving less f*cks! They discuss the vital basics to achieve longevity, the unsexy role of hearing in brain health, and why physically putting your phone in exile makes you sharper. Sarah shares the good news that we can actually celebrate the beauty of our changing brains. ***TICKETS ARE SELLING NOW for the Untidy girls going LIVE with Chelsea Winter!

In this Think Thursday episode, Molly explores one of neuroscience's greatest mysteries: consciousness. At the center of this discussion is the thalamus, a small walnut-sized structure in the brain that scientists now believe plays a vital role in generating conscious experience.Long considered just a relay station for sensory signals, new research highlighted in an August 29, 2025 Popular Mechanics article suggests the thalamus acts as the brain's “switchboard,” determining which sensory information reaches awareness and which fades into the background. Molly explains how silence, rest, and focused attention support this system, and why the thalamus may be a key to understanding what it means to be aware.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy the thalamus is more than a relay—it may be the brain's switchboard for consciousnessHow the thalamocortical loop coordinates awarenessWhat happens to consciousness when thalamic activity is disrupted (anesthesia, coma, psychedelics)How silence and rest reduce the thalamus's workload and improve clarity and presenceFour practical ways to support the networks that depend on the thalamusKey Quote“When you pause, when you rest, when you seek silence, you are not just taking a break. You are nurturing the very networks that make awareness possible.”References and ResourcesPopular Mechanics (Aug 29, 2025): Your Brain's Switchboard Could Be Key to Explaining ConsciousnessPrevious Think Thursday episodes: Silence is Golden and The Neuroscience of Mental Rest ★ Support this podcast ★

On this episode of RAE they guys mostly make puns and literary references, but also discuss how the Packers killed another elite opponent even though they could have scored even more. And now they get to play the Browns who are at least maybe not as bad as they seem because they played some tough teams, but also are probably bad. We also laugh at the Bears, and remind everyone that Harold Fannin runs like a duck. Also, listener questions!

In this conversation with Dr. Cié Gee from the University of Texas at San Antonio we explore the idea of leadership through the roles of line leader and door holder–familiar responsibilities from elementary school. Dr. Gee argues that the door holder is a less glamorous but potentially more important role than the line leader, and we discuss ways door holding opportunities present themselves in the normal course of work.   Key Takeaways:Being the line leader can be fun, but being a door holder is a critical role for the success of any venture. Leadership doesn't require a title, and it doesn't require grand gestures to convey care and concern for the people one is leading. As Mother Teresa said, “Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.”If you're thinking about someone who held a door for you at some point in your career, reach out to them to let them know the effect they had on you.  Host:Doug McKennaUniversity Registrar, George Mason Universitycmckenn@gmu.edu   Guests:Dr. Cié GeeAssociate Vice Provost for Career-Engaged Learning, University of Texas at San Antonioginnifer.gee@utsa.edu References and Additional Information:Core Competencies: Leadership and ManagementCie Geehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ciegee/   

Is it just us, or are all these macho men kind of making eyes at each other? This week, we're heading into the jungle to encounter a creature we've never faced before — Predator (1987) — while armed with our hallmark homoerotic subtext goggles. That's right, these babies don't just have thermal or infrared vision, they can also pick apart all of the complicated threads of the poly relationships between Arnold Schwarzenegger, Carl Weathers, and their ragtag crew of body building heroes from over a mile away. Join us as we talk about masculinity, mandibles, memes, and more on our newest episode of Spooky Tuesday.

In this week's episode, host Daniel Raimi discusses fossil fuel subsidies with Paasha Mahdavi, an associate professor and cofounder of the 2035 Initiative at the University of California, Santa Barbara. They talk about how subsidies on goods such as gasoline and diesel lead to lower prices for consumers. However, because these subsidies encourage the use of fossil fuels, reforming such policies is important when promoting the use of renewable energy. Mahdavi explores why many attempts to reform fossil fuel subsidies have failed, and he proposes potential avenues for addressing the weaknesses of reforms which could lead to failure of the subsidies.

Skip the banter: 00:08:13 (give or take a minute depending on ads) Pumpkin pancake recipe When 19-year-old Brian Cohee Jr. drove his car into the Colorado River, his parents thought it was just a mistake. But a day later, his mother made a chilling 911 call: she'd found something in his closet that no parent should ever see. As police began digging into Brian's story, a missing person report came in—Warren Barnes, a kind and quiet man known around town for always having his nose in a paperback, hadn't been seen in days. What unfolded next was a horrifying confession, spoken with a smile, by a teenager who'd been fantasizing about murder for years. Allison tells us the rest of this story.

Season 5, EPISODE 254 Source & Age Verification Program For Feeder Cattle Sired By Gelbvieh & Balancer Bulls What Is the Balancer® Edge Program? The Balancer® Edge program, developed by the American Gelbvieh Association (AGA), is designed to add value for cattle producers by verifying Gelbvieh and Balancer genetics in their herds. To qualify, at least 75% of sires must be registered Gelbvieh or Balancer bulls, with each bull carrying a minimum of 25% Gelbvieh genetics. Verification Requirements for Producers Participation in Balancer® Edge requires simple but essential documentation, including: First and last calf born dates Headcount support Registration papers of sires to confirm Gelbvieh genetics This verification process ensures genetic accuracy and builds buyer confidence in Gelbvieh and Balancer-influenced cattle. Market Value Through Source & Age Verification (SAV) Since its launch in 2004, Source and Age Verification (SAV) has been a proven tool for U.S. beef producers. Balancer® Edge automatically qualifies cattle for SAV, opening doors to value-added marketing programs such as: China Export Verification Program Non-Hormone Treated Cattle (NHTC) Program for the EU Verified Natural Beef GAP 5-Step Animal Welfare and others Additionally, Balancer® Edge documentation can: Establish cattle age at the processor Serve as proof of maturity for grading purposes Ensure cattle qualify as A maturity if under 30 months of age at harvest Third-Party Verification With IMI Global The AGA has partnered with IMI Global, an accredited, independent verification company. IMI Global evaluates livestock attributes, production practices, and compliance to ensure unbiased and trustworthy certification for Balancer® Edge participants. Cost & Tag Options for Producers Enrollment in Balancer® Edge is affordable and straightforward: $3.00 per head (includes tags + application processing) Producers may select from 982 or 840 EID tags (840 EID tags require a premise ID) Combo sets (visual tag + EID) available for an additional $1.25/head Standard turnaround time: approx. 2 weeks from order date Rush orders available for an extra fee Why Choose Balancer® Edge? By participating in the Balancer® Edge program, producers gain: Verified Gelbvieh and Balancer genetics Access to global and domestic value-added beef markets Documentation for age, source, and maturity verification Affordable verification backed by trusted third-party certification Find out more from the American Gelbvieh Association, and marketing programs by clicking HERE. Cattle Industry News Cattlemen's Beef Board Approves $38 Million Budget The Cattlemen's Beef Board (CBB) will invest approximately $38.1 million into programs of beef promotion, research, consumer information, industry information, foreign marketing, and producer communications during fiscal 2026, subject to USDA approval. In action at the end of its September 3-4 meeting in Denver, Colorado, the Beef Promotion Operating Committee (BPOC) approved Checkoff funding for a total of 14 "Authorization Requests" - or grant proposals - for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2025. The committee, which includes 10 producers and importers from the Cattlemen's Beef Board and 10 producers from the Federation of State Beef Councils, also recommended full Cattlemen's Beef Board approval of a budget amendment to reflect the split of funding between budget categories affected by their decisions. REFERENCES: https://www.nationalbeefwire.com/cattlemen-s-beef-board-approves-38-million-budget-lists-priorities-it-will-invest USDA OK's New Tech For Beef Grading USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) is moving forward with the use of three new vision grading instruments to support the agency's beef grading program. AMS approved the use of new technologies that produce marbling scores for Prime, Choice and Select grades for beef, according to a statement announcing the tech updates. The three new vision grading instruments also will assist in the application of Yield Grades and measuring of the ribeye area that often is used in scores of Certified Beef Programs. These certifications are issued by a range of organizations and companies, including Certified Angus Beef, National Beef Certified Premium, Tyson's Chairman's Reserve Certified Premium Beef and Nolan Ryan's Tender Aged Beef, for example. The technology allows for consistent, uniform application of USDA beef grades, which drive payments for producers, help value determinations for packers and communicate quality to U.S. consumers.

China was the fourth largest destination for U.S. beef last year but President Donald Trump's tariffs on China starting in February soured trade relations. In March, China revoked export licenses for U.S. producers, leaving the beef industry with only a few eligible exporters. Compared to the first seven months of 2024, exports to China are down 46% and down 47% by value at $481 million. Among the top six destinations for U.S. beef, only South Korea booked a volume increase through July — up 9% by both volume and value. All the others, including Japan, Mexico, Canada and Taiwan, are off so far this year. However, according to a recent Rabo Research Report, global cattle prices continue to rise as global volumes are contracting.  Although, for example, beef imports from Brazil into the U.S. rose 25% compared to last year in the first half of 2025, higher tariffs will have a material impact on the trade between Brazil and the US, analysts assured. In Europe, the tight market is also attracting higher imports. The latest round of U.S. tariffs included an additional 40% on the already existing 10% global rate and 26.4% non-quota duty on Brazilian beef imports. Brazil supplied a record volume of beef into the U.S. in the first half of 2025, and RaboResearch believes this additional tariff will have a material impact on the trade between Brazil and the U.S. Nearly a month after the U.S. began applying further import tariffs on Brazilian beef, shipments remain strong in a year-over-year comparison, and shipments to the U.S. have remained relatively stable even after the tariffs have taken effect.

On this day of remembrance, we honor those lost and the lives forever changed by the events of 9/11. But beyond the history, there's something profound about how our bodies hold on to trauma—whether it's from a personal experience or a collective event that shook us all.

Ben Horowitz is the co-founder of Andreessen Horowitz, Silicon Valley's largest and most influential venture capital firm, with over $46B in committed capital across multiple funds. He took Loudcloud public with just $2 million in revenue (dubbed “the IPO from hell”), sold it for $1.6 billion, and has backed companies from Facebook to Stripe to Airbnb to OpenAI to Databricks (now worth more than $100 billion). His management philosophy—forged through near-death experiences and refined through coaching hundreds of CEOs—contradicts most conventional startup wisdom.In our conversation, Ben shares:1. Why “founder mode” is half right and half dangerously wrong2. The story behind “Good Product Manager/Bad Product Manager” and why it went viral despite being written in anger3. Where the biggest AI startup opportunities remain4. Why you need to run toward fear, never away5. The one trait that predicts that a founder will fail as CEO6.

Dr. Audrey Kershaw returns to chat with Dr. Linda Bluestein and demystify wisdom tooth extraction, appliances for TMJ disorder, and everyday oral health habits for people with EDS/HSD. We cover when third molars should be removed (and when they shouldn't), why local anesthetic can fail in some patients, how to approach dental procedures when CCI (craniocervical instability) is a concern, and what truly drives gum disease vs “EDS-specific” issues. We also address periodontal EDS (a rare subtype), toothpaste choices (fluoride vs hydroxyapatite vs chelators), and the surprisingly powerful habit of “spit, don't rinse.” Stay to the end for practical Hypermobility Hacks you can implement tonight. Takeaways Is wisdom teeth surgery happening too often… or dangerously too late? What if the biggest risk during oral surgery isn't the tooth—but how your neck is positioned? Why do some people with EDS feel every cut and drill—even after “getting numb”? Could one cheap hack—“spit, don't rinse”—protect your teeth better than $30 toothpaste? Are sharks hiding the secret to stronger enamel in your bathroom cabinet? Find the episode transcript here.

From Mariah Carey's forever-diva energy to Tate McRae's “diaper chic,” we break down the performances, the fashion, and why the award show itself feels like it's on life support.We also dig into Sabrina Carpenter's set—her pro-trans messaging, her connection to Taylor Swift, and why we still think she's holding back.Then, we turn to Lizzo's New York Magazine profile and unpack her rebirth moment, what it means to start over after controversy, and why going deeper with fans might be the only way to win in 2025.Plus, Megan Thee Stallion finds the most iconic way to serve legal papers, and Black News brings us everything from purple-dress wedding drama to dog-food lunches.Subscribe for monthly bonus episodes:https://patreon.com/2Queens2CrownsJoin the conversation:TikTok -⁠@2queens2crowns⁠,⁠@iam_kjmiller⁠, @leta_bitchknow⁠YouTube -⁠2 Queens 2 Crowns⁠IG:⁠@kjmiller, ⁠⁠@letabknow References:2025 MTV VMAs:https://www.mtv.com/event/vmaCNN's roundup of VMA looks:https://www.cnn.com/2025/09/08/style/mtv-vma-red-carpet-fashionLizzo Starts Over:https://www.vulture.com/article/lizzo-comeback-lawsuit-canceled-zeitgeist-interview.htmlLizzo's TikTok on Song of Summer:https://www.tiktok.com/@lizzo/video/7546668101257956638Megan Thee Stallion Serves Adin Ross:https://www.bet.com/article/kiklke/megan-thee-stallion-serves-adin-ross-court-papers-with-a-mariachi-bandPurple Wedding Dress Gate on TikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@dianalively1/video/7546403940317809933?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc&web_id=7517361012459193886Husband Packs Dog Food for Wife on TikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@ragebaitorrealtake/video/7544792195216215327?q=%40kaitjbrooks&t=1757528769800KJ's TikTok On Her Natural Hair:https://www.tiktok.com/@iam_kjmiller/video/7548150013906488589?lang=en

Municipal bonds can be a powerful tool for high-income investors, but only when used thoughtfully. In this episode, I explain how to evaluate muni bonds with tax-equivalent yield, the difference between general obligation and revenue bonds, and why I avoid state-specific and high-yield issues. I also share Plancorp's implementation approach and give a market outlook on why munis remain attractive for retirement portfolios today. Listen now and learn: ► How to tell if municipal bonds make sense for your portfolio ► The key differences between types of muni bonds and what those differences mean for long-term investors ► Why not all muni strategies are created equal—and the hidden risks to watch out for. ► How to think about munis in today's market environment and why their role extends beyond just tax-free income.   Visit www.TheLongTermInvestor.com for show notes, free resources, and a place to submit questions.   Editing and post-production work for this episode was provided by The Podcast Consultant (⁠https://thepodcastconsultant.com⁠) Disclosure: This content, which contains security-related opinions and/or information, is provided for informational purposes only and should not be relied upon in any manner as professional advice, or an endorsement of any practices, products or services.

A viewer question prompts Chris and Sophie to look into scrambler therapy. A medical therapy for chronic pain with a silly name that sounds like it should be pseudoscience, but actually isn't. How is it different from Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS)? How good is the evidence and how much of the benefit is actually a placebo response.   Become a supporter of our show today either on Patreon or through PayPal!

We know, we know, The Descent: Part 2 (2009) might just be one of the most hated sequels in horror history, but what if for Chelsea's birthday we pretend it wasn't? On our latest episode of Spooky Tuesday, we're picking up right where we left off two years ago and heading back into those unexplored Appalachian caves, where we're discovering even *more* gay subtext than we found the first time around. This episode has it all — toxic yuri, throuples, and CLEAR references to other films like Sky High and I Know What You Did Last Summer — so turn your brain pea-sized like a crawler's and simply enjoy the silliness of a movie that answers the all-important question: where exactly *do* the cave creatures poop?References: https://www.thefrightclubni.com/post/exclusive-the-descent-turns-16-interview-with-shauna-macdonaldhttps://fanlore.org/wiki/Toxic_Yaoi/Yurihttps://www.reddit.com/r/FIlm/comments/s5eg66/the_descent_2005_a_film_about_queer_childbirth/https://www.reddit.com/r/horror/comments/130krnn/what_was_the_point_of_the_descent_part_ii_so_they/https://x.com/spooky_tuesday/status/1706369802007351415

In this week's episode, host Margaret Walls talks with Dominic Parker, a professor at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, about the first US government–run environmental management agencies and how they've influenced the survival of wildlife in the United States. Parker's new coauthored journal article discusses the economic, political, and social forces that led to the founding of state wildlife agencies and contributed to their growth over time. Parker explains how wildlife management agencies facilitated the rebound of several well-known species in the United States, including the white-tailed deer, after a period of intense decline. Parker underscores the importance of natural resource management that responds to the needs of both people and the environment, ensuring the continued enjoyment of natural spaces and survival of wildlife in the United States.

Skip the banter: 00:07:00 (give or take ~30 seconds depending on ads) In 1998, Tom and Eileen Lonergan boarded a dive boat in Australia expecting a day exploring the coral-covered depths of the Great Barrier Reef. Instead, they surfaced to find the ocean empty—no boat, no crew, no one. What followed was a string of errors, oversights, and assumptions that left the couple stranded at sea, invisible to the very people who were supposed to ensure their safety. Theories about what happened in those final hours have never stopped swirling: were they victims of incompetence, a murder-suicide, or something they planned all along? Allison tells us the rest of this story that hinges on one fatal miscount and a message that might've been written just in time.
