You might think that evening drink helps you unwind, but science says otherwise.In this Everyday Epigenetics: Raw. Real. Relatable mini episode, certified epigenetic human performance coach Susan Robbins exposes the surprising truth about how alcohol disrupts your sleep, your hormones, and your body's natural circadian rhythm.Alcohol may knock you out quickly, but it blocks REM and deep sleep, hijacks your melatonin production, and floods your system with stress hormones that leave you foggy, inflamed, and exhausted. Over time, these disruptions can impact everything from memory and recovery to immune function and even genetic expression.In this episode:How alcohol interferes with REM cycles and deep restorative sleepWhy “nightcap sleep” is actually sedation, not recoveryThe link between alcohol, dehydration, and next-day fatigueHow it throws off your circadian rhythm, and how to reset itPractical ways to protect your sleep and support detox pathwaysWhether you drink occasionally or often, this episode will change the way you think about your bedtime ritual.Listen now to Part 2 of the Alcohol Series, and discover why your best night's sleep starts with putting down the glass.RESOURCES:Show notes: https://healthyawakening.co/2025/11/21/episode94Visit the website: healthyawakening.co/podcastFind listening links here: https://healthyawakening.co/linksConnect with Susan:Check out Susan's NEW E-book!

Som medlem i australiska The Go-Betweens gjorde Robert Forster oemotståndlig indierock på sjuttio- och åttiotalet. Nu är han soloartist och aktuell med albumet "Strawberries" som spelades in i Stockholm med Peter Morén som producent. Nästa år debuterar Robert som skönlitterär författare men först hälsar han på hemma hos Strage för att prata om sin 50 år långa karriär. Han berättar bland annat om när han i slutet av åttiotalet väckte skivbolagets vrede genom att bära klänning på scen, om när han stal en röntgenbild av "The man who fell to earth"-regissören Nicolas Roegs knä, om teaterkursen på universitetet som förde honom samman med den andra kreativa kraften i Go-Betweens: Grant McLennan, om att klä sig så prydligt att alla trodde att de var nördiga bokmalar (när de i själva verket var tämligen dekadenta rockers), om att turnera med The Birthday Party och REM, om Pär Wiksten i Wannadies som gjort mer PR för Go-Betweens än något skivbolag och om första singeln "Lee Remick" som Robert skrev som en hyllning till filmstjärnan ("she comes from Ireland, she's very beautiful, I come from Brisbane and I'm quite plain") utan att veta att hon kom från Massachusetts.

Most sleep aids sedate you, but they don't restore you. In this episode, we dive deep into RESTORED, the natural sleep peptide developed to quiet the brain's stress signals and bring back real, restorative sleep. Learn how this bioactive peptide rebalances the orexin–cortisol system, restores REM and deep sleep, and helps you wake clear, calm, and energized again. You'll hear real-world results, the science behind why we dream, and how stress, light, and hormones disrupt your circadian rhythm… plus what happens when you finally get your sleep back.

Elias Makos is joined by Victor Henriquez, Public affairs and crisis management specialist at Public Strategy and Conseil, and Sue Smith, a Montreal journalist and broadcaster. After a smooth launch of the Deux-Montages branch over the weekend and into the work week, parts of the REM network are down after a truck struck a viaduct near the Bois-Franc station. Is the REM cursed? Prime Minister Mark Carney’s minority Liberal government narrowly survived its third confidence vote in as many weeks last night. After Ontario and New Brunswick, it’s reportedly Manitoba’s turn to try and poach Quebec doctors out of the province. Speaking of doctors, they had a good time sharing a photo of Health Minister Christian Dubé taking a flight to Florida just before the weekend. A new study out of Dalhousie University's Agri-Food Analytical Sciences Laboratory says Quebecers still do not understand the “best before” labeling on food.

Night terrors are dramatic but benign episodes that can leave caregivers frightened and confused. In this episode of PEM Currents: The Pediatric Emergency Medicine Podcast, we explore the clinical features of night terrors, how to differentiate them from other nocturnal events, and when to consider further evaluation such as polysomnography. We also discuss management strategies that center on sleep hygiene, reassurance, and safety, with a special look at the role of scheduled awakenings and when medication is appropriate. Learning Objectives By the end of this episode, listeners will be able to: Describe the typical clinical presentation and age range of children with night terrors. Differentiate night terrors from other parasomnias and nocturnal seizures based on clinical features and timing. Discuss non-pharmacologic and pharmacologic management strategies for night terrors, including when to consider polysomnography. References Petit D, Touchette E, Tremblay RE, et al.

As always, I'm your host Brad Sobolewski. In this episode, we're talking about night terrors, also known as sleep terrors. A dramatic, confusing, and often terrifying experience for caregivers to witness. But they're usually benign and self-limited for the child. Kind of like a lot of the things in childhood actually, what are we gonna talk about? Well, what are night terrors? How do we diagnose them? How to differentiate them from seizures or other parasomnias key counseling for parents in the emergency department, when to refer for sleep studies or neurology evaluation, and what role, if any, medications play. So let's start with talking about what night terrors actually look like. They're part of a group of disorders called non REM parasomnias, which also includes sleepwalking and confusion arousals. They are not nightmares and they are not signs of psychological trauma. Children experiencing night terrors typically sit up suddenly during sleep, scream, cry or appear terrified. Show signs of autonomic arousal. So rapid breathing, tachycardia, sweating. They're confused or inconsolable for several minutes and they have absolutely no recollection of the event the next morning. These events usually occur in the first third of the night when children are in deep, slow wave sleep, so stage N three, and they can last five to 15 minutes, but trust me, they seem to last much longer to observers. Night terrors occur most commonly between ages three and seven with a peak around five years of age. They're rare before 18 months and unusual after age 12. Preschool aged children are most affected because they spend more time in deep, slow wave sleep. They have more fragmented sleep architecture, and they may not have fully developed arousal regulation mechanisms. Episodes can start as early as toddlerhood, especially if the child has a family history of parasomnias. So like sleep, walking night terrors or other things, sleep deprivation or stressful life events like starting daycare or a new sibling or a move, although less common, older children and even adolescents can experience night terrors, especially in the context of stress, sleep deprivation or comorbid sleep disorders like sleep apnea. Why do they happen? Well, they're usually due to incomplete arousal from deep sleep, so the brain is essentially stuck between sleep and wakefulness. Factors that increase the risk of frequency of night terrors include again, sleep deprivation, recent illness, stress, or anxiety. Sleep disordered breathing, or a family history of parasomnias, there's a real strong genetic component. Up to 80% of children with night terrors have a first degree relative with similar episodes. The diagnosis is entirely clinical and based on history. You should ask parents, what time of night did these episodes occur? Is the child confused, frightened, or hard to wake? Is there amnesia the next day so they don't remember the event? And are the movements variable or stereotyped? Sometimes parents will video record these, and that can really help us clarify the episodes when we're in the emergency department. You definitely do not need labs or imaging in a typical presentation. I think parents are often seeking an explanation for why their child looks so freaky. In my experience, just telling them that it's a night terror and that it's benign and providing reassurance on how healthy their kid is, is more than enough. Now, not all nighttime events are sleep terrors. You should consider neurology referral and video polysomnography or sleep studies with extended EEG when onset is very early, so younger than 18 months or late in childhood. So older than 12 or 13 episodes occur outside of the first third of the night. Again, find out when the kid went to bed. And do math. The first third of the night is the first 33% of their typical sleep time. The events are brief clustered or stereotyped. The movements are repetitive, focal or violent. If kid just moving just their right arm. That's not a night terror. Often the movements will look fearful and they'll be sort of disorganized. Rhythmic movements don't typically happen in night terrors, and there's a recent injury. The child has excessive daytime sleepiness, or there's some developmental regression or abnormality. All those are red flags. Differentiating from nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy can be tricky. Nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy events are usually short. Highly stereotyped. They have abrupt onset and offset, and they may include dystonic or tonic posturing. So if the family has a video of this, that can be really helpful using a good clinical history. Video recordings in EEG generally distinguish night terrors from these forms of epilepsy. But let's be honest, most of the kids you see in the ED with a typical presentation of night terrors are just night terrors. These events are really scary and we are gonna see them in the emergency departments, and so your first goal is to just reassure the family. The events are not harmful. The kid isn't aware that they had them, and the child suffers no ongoing psychological harm. That doesn't mean that the parent isn't freaked out or that nervousness doesn't linger. You wanna avoid sleep deprivation If possible, counsel families on age appropriate bedtimes and naps. Stick to a routine consistent bedtime routines. Reduce sleep fragmentation, which is a known risk factor for children with frequent or predictable night terrors. Try waking them 15 to 30 minutes before the usual episode happens. So I've seen lots of kids with frequent night terrors, and they usually happen around the same time at night. And you wanna do this, this 15 to 30 minute awakening before the usual episodes each night for about two to four weeks. That's labor intensive as a parent, but it can help these awakenings interrupt the sleep cycle and break the pattern. Keep kids safe. Use baby gates, door alarms. Make sure windows are locked, don't put younger kids in bunk beds and remove sharp obstacles or objects near the bed. So if they've got a pointy ended nightstand, oh, that's just something for the kid to fall into or smack against. Do we ever use medications for night terrors? Well, almost never. You know, pharmacologic therapy such as low dose benzodiazepines or tricyclic antidepressants is really only reserved for severe episodes. Kids with substantial risk for injury or disruption of the family life or school in a substantial way. I'm not gonna make that call in the emergency department. And these are sleep specialist referral guided therapies. You also wanna consider evaluating children for comorbid sleep disorders, especially in recurrent night terrors, like obstructive sleep apnea, restless leg syndrome. This may worsen the parasomnias. For kids in which you're unsure, polysomnography can be used. This is an overnight sleep study that monitors brainwaves via EEG, eye movements, muscle activity, heart rhythm, breathing effort, and airflow and oxygen saturation. But it's also done in a hospital and not during the kid's usual sleep routine. So most children that have night terrors, if you get the right history, you can make the diagnosis clinically and the kids don't need any expensive or expanded testing to get to the bottom of things. Alright, take home points for this brief episode. Night terrors are common, especially in preschool aged children. They occur in non REM sleep in the first third of the night. The episodes are very dramatic, but they're benign and children don't remember them. But trust me, parents do. The diagnosis is clinical. No labs or imaging are needed unless there's atypical features. You should reassure families, promote sleep hygiene and use scheduled awakenings for frequent and recurrent cases, and refer for sleep studies and or neurology of episodes or violent stereotyped, or suggest nocturnal seizures. Thanks for listening to this episode. I hope you found it educational about a topic that you will encounter in the emergency department. As with many things in children that are scary, there's a benign explanation and parents are just looking to know that their kid's gonna be okay. Often doing a thorough history in physical and really listening to the parents' concerns and then providing useful information is all you gotta do. That's why pediatrics is great. If you've got feedback on this episode or there's other common topics you'd like to hear about, send them my way.

The orexin receptor agonists are coming. After years of managing narcolepsy with stimulants, sodium oxybate, and wake-promoting agents, we soon will have medications that target the root cause of the disorder: the loss of orexin signaling. These new drugs—developed by Takeda, Alkermes, and Centessa—aren't just incremental improvements. They represent a genuine shift in how we understand and treat hypersomnolence disorders. In this episode, we will:Define what orexin is and why losing it destabilizes wakefulness, REM boundaries, muscle tone, and cognitionLearn how orexin agonists work—not as stimulants, but as replacement therapy for a missing neurotransmitterFind out why OX2R is the key receptor, and how selective agonists restore stable wakefulness, reduce cataplexy, and normalize attentionReview the available clinical data from the new wave of programs: oveporexton (Takeda), alixorexton (Alkermes), and ORX750 (Centessa)See what makes these drugs different from modafinil, amphetamines, solriamfetol, and oxybate therapiesLearn why Phase 1, Phase 2, and Phase 3 trials matter—with quick insights on how these drugs reached such strong resultsConsider safety and side effects, including what Hy's Law means and why regulators watch liver signals so closelyLook ahead to what these medications may mean for NT1, NT2, IH, and other hypersomnolence disorders in the coming yearsSpeculate why this class represents one of the most exciting moments in modern sleep medicineProduced by: Maeve WinterMore Twitter: @drchriswinter IG: @drchriwinter Threads: @drchriswinter Bluesky: @drchriswinter The Sleep Solution and The Rested Child Thanks for listening and sleep well!
Elias Makos starts the week off with Dan Delmar, Co-founder of the content marketing firm TNKR Media and co-host of the podcast Inspiring Entrepreneurs Canada, and Jimmy Zoubris, former special advisor to the mayor of Montreal. The federal government is bracing for a razor-thin confidence vote on the budget Monday, with Liberals scrambling behind the scenes to lock down enough opposition support to avoid triggering an election. The Parti Québecois is proposing to give the province its own currency if it were independent. It's weekday launch day for the new REM line in Deux-Montagnes. So far there have been no issues with the new line this weekend or this morning. That being said, REM employees staged a small protest on Saturday against their working conditions.
1. 900 épisodes : un bilan entre nostalgie et luciditéPour cette 900ᵉ émission, Rem et John célèbrent presque cinq ans de podcast et reviennent sur leurs débuts, à l'époque où tout se passait sur Clubhouse. Ils réalisent que 900 épisodes représentent près de 38 jours d'écoute non-stop, une véritable archive de l'univers NFT francophone.Cette étape symbolique met aussi en lumière un sentiment partagé : celui d'être devenus, selon leur propre expression, “des vestiges du NFT”, tant l'écosystème a changé et s'est rétréci au fil du temps.2. Le cœur de l'épisode : les NFT sont-ils vraiment morts ?La discussion s'ouvre sur la question qu'ils n'avaient jamais abordée ouvertement : “Les NFT sont-ils morts ?” Le constat est sévère. Le marché a connu un emballement encore plus extrême que certaines bulles historiques : argent facile, taux zéro, hype monstrueuse… puis effondrement.Ils soulignent que la chute ne vient pas uniquement des scams — même si certains ont effectivement “pris la caisse” — mais aussi d'une immaturité générale, de projets lancés trop vite, de créateurs sincères mais incapables d'exécuter, de communiquer ou d'admettre l'échec.Même au sein de la crypto, les NFT sont désormais perçus comme une micro-niche, à laquelle peu croient encore.3. Projets emblématiques : visions ratées, naufrages et exceptionsJohn et Rem reviennent sur trois trajectoires symboliques.Artifact, d'abord, un projet visionnaire autour du figital et des sneakers, mais dont le rachat par Nike a marqué le début de la fin : trop gros, trop corporate, trop lent.Yuga Labs, ensuite, génie absolu de la hype mais exemple parfait d'une équipe noyée sous l'argent sans parvenir à construire un produit clair. Après avoir tenté tous les chemins — metaverse, gaming, IP — Yuga semble revenir à son idée initiale : un club exclusif. Une boucle bouclée, mais au prix de millions brûlés.Enfin, Pudgy Penguins apparaît comme la rare success story, portée par un entrepreneur solide, capable de transformer une image désastreuse en marque cohérente et durable.4. L'art : dernier refuge, mais pas sans fragilitéSi quelque chose a permis au NFT Morning de tenir 900 épisodes, c'est bien l'art. Mais là encore, les animateurs rappellent que tout n'est pas rose : des plateformes majeures comme AsyncArt, KnownOrigin ou Maker's Place ont disparu, révélant un problème de fond : la plupart des œuvres ne sont pas réellement on-chain, ce qui fragilise leur pérennité.Pourtant, paradoxalement, l'art numérique se porte plutôt bien dans les institutions traditionnelles. Art Basel Miami inaugure une section dédiée aux NFT avec Beeple, Art Blocks et Fellowship, tandis que Paris Photo intègre pleinement la création digitale depuis trois ans. L'art survit, même si l'industrie des plateformes NFT, elle, s'est effondrée.5. Et maintenant ? Vers une renaissance plus lente et plus saineL'épisode se termine sur une vision plus large. Pour Rem et John, ce que l'on a vécu entre 2020 et 2022 n'était qu'un aperçu accéléré du futur : des concepts en avance, mal exécutés, mais qui ressurgiront plus tard dans d'autres produits, comme les idées de la bulle Internet ont ressuscité dix ans après.Le NFT Morning continue car sa force a toujours été sa constance et son focus sur ce qui dure : l'art, les créateurs, la culture numérique. C'est ce qui permet de résister quand tout le reste s'écroule.⭐ Phrase marquante de l'épisode :“Les NFT sont-ils morts ? Non, mais ils ont subi leur propre révolution : de la hype décentralisée, on est revenu à l'essentiel - l'art.”

Lets look at self care, self compassion and why we need to seriously look at REM sleep. Turn your mobile off and read a book, right now I have 4 books open and I need to pick up the fckn book. I've just turned 46 and I have 3 jobs of which I have accepted, 3 jobs I need to be switched on and use my mental energy. 10 Ways to Improve REM SleepKeep a consistent sleep schedule – going to bed and waking up at the same time trains your brain to enter deeper sleep cycles.Wind down slowly for 30–60 minutes – dim lights, avoid heavy conversations, and switch off stimulation.Reduce screen use 1 hour before bed – blue light delays REM sleep by messing with melatonin.Avoid eating too late – especially heavy or spicy foods that can disrupt the deep sleep stages before REM starts.Cut caffeine after mid-afternoon – caffeine stays in your system for hours and reduces REM.Stay hydrated earlier in the day – dehydration disrupts sleep, but drinking too late wakes you up.Limit alcohol – it knocks you out but blocks REM; that's why you feel mentally foggy the next day.Create a cooler sleep environment – around 18°C helps your body fall into deeper sleep cycles quicker.Get morning light exposure – sunlight early in the day resets your internal clock and improves REM at night.Add light physical activity daily – walking (you already do 25k steps!) boosts sleep pressure and helps the brain enter REM.Emotional reset – REM sleep processes stress and trauma, helping you respond instead of react.Better decision-making – the brain does its best problem-solving during REM.Sharper memory – REM strengthens your ability to recall important information and conversations.More patience and emotional control – you're less snappy, less overwhelmed, and more stable.Reduced anxiety – REM clears “emotional residue” from the day, lowering overall stress.Improved confidence – better sleep gives you clarity and presence, which makes you feel more in control.Stronger motivation – REM boosts dopamine regulation, making it easier to stay on track with goals.Better self-awareness – you can see patterns in your behaviour and change them.Healthier reactions to conflict – small issues won't trigger massive emotional spirals.More energy for life – when you feel energized, everything—work, relationships, fitness—becomes more manageable.Better REM sleep = better mental clarity, stronger mood control, stronger motivation.When your brain rests properly, your life stops feeling like firefighting and starts feeling manageable.

Send us a textEver wish you could quiet the story in your head without having to relive it? We sit down with Marine veteran and defense-tech CEO Tony Crescenzo to explore a practical, science-backed way to downshift the nervous system using neuroacoustic entrainment. Tony opens up about the years he spent running hot—rage, hypervigilance, and fractured sleep—and how a targeted audio protocol shifted his sleep from barely restorative to deeply replenishing. The conversation gets real about why so many first responders and veterans avoid talk therapy, and how culturally aware approaches can make all the difference.We break down the sleep architecture behind feeling human again. Slow wave sleep restores the body; REM sleep stabilizes emotion and consolidates memory. Tony shares research showing meaningful gains in both, along with a 9% boost in threat recognition—vital for police, fire, EMS, dispatchers, and military communities where seconds matter. You'll hear how suppressing the prefrontal “rumination engine” while opening the anterior cingulate, parietal, and occipital regions enables somatic processing: the body digests stress so the mind can stand down.Then we zoom out to cognitive resilience—the brain's ability to adapt quickly under pressure. Using EEG-guided and AI-personalized protocols, entrainment builds coherence front-to-back and left-to-right, easing brain fog and improving metabolic efficiency. The result is a steadier baseline, faster recovery after spikes, and sleep that actually repairs. If you've been stuck between white-knuckle coping and sterile clinical answers, this is a credible path you can start at home, including free app tracks for power naps, rumination relief, and sleep support.How to reach Jonathan: 1) https://www.IntelligentWaves.com 2) https://www.PeakNeuro.com3) https://www.linkedin.com/in/tonycrescenzo/Freed.ai: We'll Do Your SOAP Notes!Freed AI converts conversations into SOAP note.Use code Steve50 for $50 off the 1st month!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Send us a textStigma keeps more people from hearing help than price does, and we're tackling that head on with a model that puts privacy, speed, and clinical integrity at the center. Blaise sits down with Dr. Melanie Hecker, founder of BLUEMOTH and owner of five brick‑and‑mortar clinics, to unpack a digital prescription approach that feels modern without sacrificing professional care. Think premium devices you can test at home, real clinicians guiding each step, and service that moves at the speed of life.We dig into the full customer journey: a private online consult, candidacy confirmed through a recent audiogram or a shipped test kit that includes air, bone, speech, and speech‑in‑noise, plus clear referrals when red flags pop up. The standout moment is the Experience Box—three sets of top‑tier hearing aids, first‑fit to about 85–90 percent, so users can compare sound quality, comfort, and features in the real world. An audiology assistant handles unboxing and setup, and follow‑ups in the first weeks keep progress on track. When issues require deeper adjustments, BLUEMOTH ships a laptop and Noahlink Wireless to unlock full software‑level tuning and feedback testing from home.We also confront the big question: validation. Dr. Hecker explains why she won't “check the box” on remote real-ear measurements (REMs) until it can be done with accuracy and integrity, and she lays out a realistic path forward—referrals for REM today, and future 3D ear scans to model real‑ear targets without probes. Add rapid response times, overnight loaners for device failures, strong connectivity, and pricing that sits between OTC and boutique clinics, and you get a hybrid that serves GenX, younger boomers, busy professionals, and families supporting older adults with mobility challenges.If you care about access, outcomes, and the future of hearing healthcare, this conversation is a blueprint. Subscribe, share with a friend who's been putting off a hearing check, and leave a review telling us which part of the hybrid model you'd adopt first.

In this Episode: Episode: "Refocus to Rise" Series, Episode 2 Hosts: Mark Cardone and Theron Feidt Topic: Boosting Your Body and Energy The hosts frame this episode as a guide for anyone needing a "reset," particularly for the new year. The central idea is to shift focus away from traditional health metrics like weight and instead prioritize energy, which they define as the capacity to do important daily tasks, like playing with kids or being present with a spouse. Here are the three main steps discussed for increasing and managing your energy: 1. Audit Your Energy, Not Your Weight The hosts argue that focusing on the scale is "backwards" because energy is a more immediate and relevant metric. Weight can be misleading (e.g., a bodybuilder's high muscle mass), but you always know how your energy feels right now. Action: For one week, keep a simple log (in a notebook or phone) of when you feel low energy. Goal: Look for the "cause and effect." Do you crash at 10:30 a.m. every day? It might be the sugary donut you ate earlier. Is it after a specific meal? Tweak: Once you find a pattern, make one small tweak (e.g., swap the donut for nuts) and see how it impacts your energy levels. 2. Move with Purpose, Not Pressure This step is about integrating movement consistently without feeling overwhelmed. Action: Define your "non-negotiable minimums" for movement. This could be a 20-minute walk or 20 squats. Setting a small, achievable minimum often leads to doing more. Action: Use "habit stacking." Attach a small movement habit to something you already do. For example, do 20 squats while your coffee brews or you're waiting for the microwave. Action: Celebrate the action, not the result. Instead of focusing on the mirror or the scale, celebrate the fact that you were consistent and "did the thing" you said you would do. 3. Prioritize Recovery and Sleep The hosts emphasize that movement and workouts tear muscles down; recovery is where "the magic happens." Action: Create a "shutdown ritual." This is a 15–30-minute wind-down period before bed to relax your body (e.g., light stretching, reading a book, putting your phone away). Action: Schedule your wind-down. Put it in your calendar or set an alarm (e.g., 9:15 p.m.) to remind yourself to begin the ritual, as it's easy to forget when busy. Action: Focus on sleep quality over quantity. While the amount of sleep varies for everyone (it's not a weakness to need 8 hours), the quality is key. Ensure your room is dark, quiet, and cool. You can use trackers (watches, rings) to monitor your REM and deep sleep to see what's working.

Send us a textImportance of Sleep Inactive Sleep Mask https://inactiveco.com/What if the simplest tool in your bedroom could unlock better recovery, steadier mood, and sharper performance? We sit down with Jill McCray—co-founder of the Inactive Company and former executive at Spanx, Starbucks, and Delta—to unpack how a century-old sleep accessory became a serious performance tool for athletes, veterans, parents, and frequent flyers. Jill traces the journey from “I'll sleep when I'm dead” to building a patented sleep mask that delivers complete darkness, active cooling with phase change material, and hardware‑free comfort that fits any head and even lets you open your eyes under the mask—an insight that dramatically increased adoption in PTSD cohorts.We explore why sleep has jumped to the top of the wellness pyramid (hello, American Heart Association's Essential 8), and how elite programs validated the design. From NFLPA reorders and college football travel kits to third‑party studies showing 15–30 minutes more sleep per night, the data points add up. Jill breaks down the four pillars of better sleep—darkness for melatonin signaling, thermoregulation for fewer 3 a.m. wakeups, deeper REM and slow‑wave quality, and comfort that drives real-world compliance. We also dig into their CBT‑I inspired Sleep Seven playbook, a personalizable routine that turns the mask into a reliable cue—your nightly “sleep warm‑up” that helps your body power down and stay there.If you've tried apps, supplements, and gadgets with little payoff, this conversation offers a refreshing, evidence-aware approach to sleep optimization. You'll learn how textile science borrowed from aerospace quietly stabilizes temperature, why design details matter for anxious or trauma-affected sleepers, and where performance sleepwear is headed next with infrared-friendly, cooling fabrics.

How did a Swedish teenager turn $1 million into a $26 billion music empire while simultaneously pissing off every musician on Earth? In the Season 5 Finale of History's Greatest Idiots, we explore the spectacular rise of Daniel Ek and Spotify, from teenage web design hustler to billionaire streaming mogul (and all the questionable decisions along the way).This is the story of how to revolutionize an industry while underpaying the people who make it possible, one fraction of a penny at a time.DISCLAIMER: We're hosted on Spotify's podcasting platform, so this might be career suicide.

Greetings from Castbury Pod! For our latest episode, Graham is joined by new co-host Ian to discuss a Bruce Springsteen movie - but not the one you're thinking of. Yes, while Deliver Me From Nowhere is still in theatres, we're rewinding a few years to look at Gurinder Chadha's Blinded by the Light, a true story of an ordinary British Pakistani boy in 1980s Luton finding his voice through a sustained obsession with The Boss.Part of our hero's dilemma is that, by this point in the '80s, Bruce is not cool - but when was his star at its brightest? We discuss the ups and downs of his commercial fortunes, as well as the film's well-chosen cast of young newcomers in the lead and familiar faces in support. We also pitch an Ozzy Osbourne biopic, talk about formative music fandoms we were part of - everything from Frankie Goes to Hollywood to REM! - and decide on which musical subculture deserves to have a movie made about it.You can find Ian at https://medium.com/@smoggywood.productions - yes, this is what happens when you don't remember your blog address during the podcast. As for us, we can, as ever, be found on Patreon, where you can get a monthly bonus episode of this show as well as weekly written articles on The Twilight Zone, Doctor Who and much more.

Episode 3180: Dr. Neal Malik explains how even a single glass of wine can disrupt your sleep quality by reducing time spent in the deep, restorative REM phase. He breaks down the science of sleep cycles and how alcohol triggers a “rebound effect” during the night, which can leave you feeling tired even after a full night's rest. Quotes to ponder: "Alcohol can make you fall asleep faster, but some have a lower tolerance to this effect where others may have a higher tolerance." "Regardless of whether you have a high or a low tolerance to alcohol, your body is still metabolizing that alcohol and clearing it from your system." "When alcohol is consumed before bedtime, the body spends less time in the REM phase of the sleep cycle."

"Hammer + Echo" Getting their start in the early '80s, the Kilkenny Cats were one of the most fascinating bands at a time when there were a lot of fascinating bands around. Formed by the North Carolina born Tom Cheek, who had relocated to Athens, Georgia for college, the Kilkenny Cats played a dark and moody blend of post-punk and psychedelia that still, after all these years, feels decidedly timeless. Here's what I mean by that--sometimes when you listen to a band you can hear the years they existed. We won't name. names, but you know what I mean--however, when it comes to the Kilkenny Cats, their music was so singular, they elude the timeline. Although their fellow city dwelling comrades ranged from REM to Pylon to Love Tractor, they were their own thing. Alive with jangling guitars, prowling basslines, foreboding drums and sonorous vocals, the Kilkenny Cats' music was awash in mystery and maybe that's why all these years later, they still sound as pressingly relevant as ever. They were a beloved live act, they had a deal with Twin/Tone, played shows with REM and Husker Du and then? Well, then decades of silence. Why? Well, that's what we're here to figure out and Tom Cheek walks us through it all. Spoiler alert: The 'Cats are back and more music in addition to the wonderful expanded reissue of 1988's Hammer + Echo, will be coming. I'll let him explain. www.propellorsoundrecordings.com www.bombshellradio.com (http://www.bombshellradio.com) www.stereoembersmagazine.com www.alexgreenbooks.com (http://www.alexgreenbooks.com) Stereo Embers IG + BLUESKY: @emberspodcast Email: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com
¿Qué ocurre cuando una agresión aparentemente sin sentido a un famoso periodista se convierte en una canción icónica de REM? Óscar Fábrega nos desentraña la historia real detrás de "What's the Frequency, Kenneth", uno de los temas más enigmáticos de la banda. Todo comienza en 1986, cuando Dan Rather, legendario presentador de la CBS, fue atacado en plena calle por un desconocido que no paraba de repetir esa extraña pregunta. Diez años después, el caso se reabre con un giro inesperado: un asesinato, un esquizofrénico paranoide y una confesión que involucra viajes en el tiempo, implantes cerebrales y un gobierno dictatorial del año 2265. Una historia que mezcla el periodismo, el rock alternativo y la locura más absoluta. Porque, amigos, vivimos tiempos extraños... pero el pasado tampoco se quedaba corto.

These 7 dangerous nighttime habits can ruin your sleep and wreak havoc on your health. Stop making these nighttime routine mistakes! Get better sleep tonight by quitting these unhealthy night habits immediately. 0:00 Introduction: Avoid these habits that hurt sleep2:22 Avoiding screens for better sleep 4:28 Alcohol before sleep 8:05 Avoid these before bed10:05 More sleep equals better sleep1. Carbs and sugar before bedGrowth hormone rises at night, but is blunted by a rise in blood sugar. This hormone helps you burn fat, repair tissues, and build muscle mass. A massive blood sugar spike before bed can interfere with your sleep and cause grogginess, fatigue, cravings, and irritability the next day.2. Screens and lights before bedAvoid lights and screens, especially those emitting blue light, for at least 2 hours before bed. Melatonin is suppressed by light. Not only does this powerful antioxidant help you sleep, but it's more important than glutathione for detoxification and DNA repair. Blue light also suppresses deep delta wave sleep and REM sleep. 3. Using alcohol to fall asleep Alcohol tricks your body into falling asleep, but you're not really sleeping: your body is working to detoxify alcohol. Alcohol increases cortisol and adrenaline, and depletes electrolytes. It also depletes vitamin B1, which can cause anxiety and nervous tension the next day. Instead of alcohol, try magnesium glycinate in warm water or kombucha tea.4. Late-night junk food Junk foods typically contain seed oils, which are inflammatory and hard on the gallbladder. If you're craving salty food before bed, try putting a small amount of sea salt in your mouth or adding more salt to your dinner.5. Antihistamines or sleeping pills before bed Sedated, artificial sleep does not leave you feeling rejuvenated and rested in the morning. People often feel less focused with decreased concentration and memory. You may eventually need more of the drug to create the same effect.6. Sleeping next to your cell phoneYour cell phone and charging cable both emit electromagnetic fields (EMFs), which can negatively impact your brain and sleep cycles. EMFs also interfere with melatonin. Keep your cell phone on airplane mode or away from your body when you're sleeping. 7. Sleep deprivationSleep deprivation can make sleep more difficult in itself. You need at least 7 hours of sleep each night. Try to get to sleep at 10:00 p.m. each night, or 11:00 p.m. at the latest.

In music, experimentalism is more than just "that one time in college." This week, we cover the albums that dared to be different, were fearless in their pursuit of breaking new ground, and subverted traditional expectations of what music should sound like. The spirit of experimental music is alive and well on The Sound, the debut solo album by guitarist, cellist, composer producer, arranger, painter, and educator Knox Chandler. This project is a musical memoir depicting the shift in his surroundings from the urbanism of New York, London, and Berlin to the serene rural setting of the Connecticut shoreline. Through 10 diaristic and transportative soundscapes, The Sound incorporates Knox's "Soundribbon" style of meditative, powerfully cinematic guitar, accompanied by upright bass and percussion, and is paired with a book of paintings, sketches, and writings. You no doubt have heard Knox Chandler's work throughout a career that has spanned four decades, as a member of The Psychedelic Furs, Siouxsie & The Banshees, Cyndi Lauper's band, and The Golden Palominos. He's also played, composed, produced, and arranged on dozens of records including REM's Automatic For The People, Depeche Mode's Exciter, David Gahan's Paper Monsters, Paula Cole's Harbinger, and many more.
