So when I heard that the expert I spoke to in that video was finally coming to the UK, I knew I needed to make a recording happen. Nir Eyal is an author and lecturer who has spent years studying what makes humans tick, how habits actually form in the brain, why we're all so distracted and what people who achieve extraordinary things actually do differently with their days.

This week we're working with ten transits, held together by four with long reach: the Sun enters Leo, Mercury turns Direct in Cancer, the North Node Retrogrades into Aquarius, and Saturn begins its Retrograde in Aries. Leo invites us to shine and yet the Nodes are quietly asking us to loosen our grip on the center. What would it cost to step out of the spotlight and rely on the people standing around us? We close with a Substack essay, The North Node in Aquarius: The Kingdom Without a King, tracing this axis back through a century of moments when the one at the center was asked to leave.

Oh wow, there is SO MUCH shifting happening right now — health, sense of self, closest relationships. July was predicted to be intense, and I know it is following through everywhere I look.  Humanity is experiencing a profound collective spiritual awakening, and it's showing up in completely different ways for each of us. What looks on the outside as misfortune or rather unexpected change is showing us something much bigger about what is happening in the collective. Some are navigating health crises or profound loss. Others are going through a complete identity transformation and questioning who they are at the core. Still others are watching relationships end or unexpectedly begin. At first glance, these look like separate struggles. But what if they're all the same thing? In this Live, I'm exploring: - The ascension symptoms showing up as health, identity & relationship shifts - Why we're ALL inside this collective spiritual transformation right now - How I'm personally experiencing it and the opportunities it is setting off - The profound levels of creative inspiration that emerge when you lean into transition  If life has been shaking everything loose lately, there's a reason, and it's huge.

We also take a detour into the wild world of CERN, the "Big Bang" experiments, and whether or not we are living through a timeline shift.  We cover the ongoing speculation regarding LeBron James' next NBA destination, address the chaos surrounding the "White and Proud" Facebook group takeover, and discuss the Amanda Stenberg and Tomi Adeyemi situation. To round out the show, we share our reflections on Essence Fest 2020 and some classic nostalgia regarding the Sinbad Summer Jam.   00:00 Intro & St. Louis/LA life updates 02:06 Stone Cold Freaks, Kink, and Hosting 04:34 Retrograde and Tech Troubles 07:07 World Cup, USA Soccer, & Rap Comparisons 13:08 The Tragic Case of Nolan Wells 30:07 CERN: Timelines, Conspiracy Theories, and Science 43:37 LeBron James' Next Move: Where is he going? 53:18 The Andrea Shaw Vaccine Murder Case 01:01:10 Black Internet Users Take Over a Racist Facebook Group 01:05:23 The Amanda Stenberg & Tomi Adeyemi Drama 01:12:45 Essence Fest 2026 & Sinbad Summer Jam Memories   Brand new voicemail: ‪(314) 649-3113‬ Subscribe to the Everyone Needs an Aquarius Patreon https://bit.ly/3tXnnCz  Email the show at straightolc@gmail.com           Follow SOLC Network online Instagram: https://bit.ly/39VL542                                    Twitter: https://bit.ly/39aL395                                     Facebook: https://bit.ly/3sQn7je                            To Listen to the podcast Podbean https://bit.ly/3t7SDJH                                YouTube http://bit.ly/3ouZqJU                                Spotify http://spoti.fi/3pwZZnJ                                Apple http://apple.co/39rwjD1                                                         IHeartRadio http://ihr.fm/2L0A2y

As Saturn is currently in Pisces too this means the structures of society are being reshaped in a much more Neptunian way. Most prominently with AI.

This week's CEO Brief is The Return - the first full week of July, and the first move of the month I've been calling the Reclaiming. It's a going-back week: back to why you started this business, to check whether the thing you're running now is still the one you actually meant to build, before the second half of the year grows it. I walk you through the week day by day - what each day's genuinely good for and what it isn't - so you can run your actual working week with the sky instead of against it. Plus the Neptune retrograde station on Tuesday and why the flattering version of your story gets so tempting, Venus moving into Virgo mid-week, your read by element - fire, earth, air, water - and the one question to carry the whole way through. A weekly operating brief for founders who run their week with the sky, not at the mercy of it. Chart-based strategy, not horoscopes. New here?

This week we're working with eight transits, headlined by Mercury Retrograde in Cancer, the Full Moon in Capricorn, and Jupiter moving into Leo, all landing on the same Monday. It's a big week, a lot of shifting at once. Mercury turns the mind back toward the past and asks us to be kind with whoever we find there. The Full Moon in Capricorn asks what we're ready to release. And Jupiter enters Leo to tear the heart open. The question is what it finds there when it does. Beneath all of it runs a single thread: do we have the courage to see a perspective that isn't our own, to listen instead of speak? We'll follow that thread together, and close with a Substack essay on what Jupiter in Leo has stirred in the human heart across the last century.(08:33) Mercury Retrograde in Cancer 26°15' – Monday, June 29June 12 – Mercury Enters its Retrograde Shadow in Cancer 16°18'June 29 – Mercury Retrograde in Cancer 26°15'July 23 – Mercury Direct in Cancer 16°18'August 6 – Mercury Exits its Retrograde Shadow in Cancer 26°15'Jupiter crossed a similar path during its Retrograde in Cancer 25°09 – 15°05' from November 11, 2025 – March 10, 2026(28:02) The Full Moon in Capricorn 08°14' at 4:55 PM PDT on Monday, June 29.(36:41) Jupiter in Leo – June 29, 2026 – July 25, 2027 (Retrograde 27° - 16°59')The dates below are times when Jupiter has previously transited through Leo.July 16, 2014 – August 11, 2015August 1, 2002 – August 27, 2003August 18, 1990 – September 11, 1991April 20 – September 29, 1979September 5, 1978 – February 28, 1979 (Retrograde 9° - 0°)May 23 – October 19, 1967September 27, 1966 – January 15, 1967 (Retrograde 4° - 0°)January 17 – July 7, 1956 (Retrograde 29° - 21°)June 12, 1955 – November 16, 1955June 30, 1943 – July 25, 1944 (Retrograde 27° - 17°)July 16, 1931 – August 10, 1932August 2, 1919 – August 26, 1920(48:47) Mars in Gemini Square the North Node Retrograde in Pisces 00° – June 28 – July 1 (Sunday – Wednesday) – Monday, June 29.(55:59) Jupiter in Leo Square Chiron in Taurus 00° – June 29 – July 6 (Monday – Monday) – Wednesday, July 1.(1:03:45) Mars Conjunct Uranus in Gemini 03° – June 29 – July 5 (Monday – Sunday) – Friday, July 3.(1:09:17) Mars in Gemini Sextile Neptune in Aries 04° – June 30 – July 6 (Tuesday – Monday) – Friday, July 4.(1:11:52) Mars in Gemini Trine Pluto Retrograde in Aquarius 04° – July 1 – 6 (Wednesday – Monday) – Sunday, July 5.(1:17:39) Substack Essay: Jupiter in Leo, The Heart the Hammer FindsCheck out my conversation on the World Cup with Sean Cassels on the Ultra World Podcast⁠⁠⁠Check out my next conversation with 5th Generation Psychic, Dallisa Hocking.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join ⁠my Substack⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.theweeklytransit.com/

CardioNerds (Drs. Rawan Amir, Tripti Gupta, and Alysha Joseph) discuss the fundamentals of adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) surgery with Dr. Elizabeth Stephens.  Audio editing by CardioNerds academy intern, Grace Qiu.  Using a case of a young adult undergoing a Ross procedure, the episode walks through what happens in the operating room—from induction and intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) to cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), myocardial protection, and surgical repair. The discussion highlights key concepts including cardioplegia, cross-clamp and bypass times, hypothermic circulatory arrest, and the complexity of redo sternotomy. This episode provides learners with a practical framework to interpret operative reports, anticipate postoperative physiology, and better collaborate with surgical teams. This episode was produced by the CardioNerds ACHD Council and planned by Dr. Rawan Amir.  CardioNerds Adult Congenital Heart Disease PageCardioNerds Episode Page Pearls “LV distension kills patients.”Preventing left ventricular distension with appropriate venting and awareness of aortic insufficiency is critical to intraoperative safety.  TEE can change the surgical plan in real time.Findings such as underestimated aortic regurgitation, mitral pathology, or a PFO may directly alter cannulation and cardioplegia strategy.  Cross-clamp time = myocardial ischemic time; bypass time = systemic stress.Both are key predictors of postoperative complications including renal injury, bleeding, and ventricular dysfunction.  Redo sternotomy risk is driven by anatomy, not just number.Aorta adherent to the sternum, conduit position, and chamber pressurization define risk more than the number of prior surgeries.  Think longitudinally—ACHD surgery is lifetime planning.Surgical materials and strategies must account for future interventions, especially in younger patients. Notes: Notes drafted by Dr. Alysha Joseph, aided by generative artificial intelligence. What are the key steps in congenital cardiac surgery from incision to closure? Preoperative planning is multidisciplinary, involving surgeon, anesthesia, cardiology, and ICU teams; high-risk inductions (e.g., critical AS, Williams syndrome) are identified early TEE is performed immediately after induction to reassess anatomy and may reveal new findings (e.g., underestimated AI, mitral disease, PFO) Median sternotomy is performed, followed by creation of a pericardial well to optimize exposure Heparin is administered prior to cannulation; arterial and venous cannulas are placed for initiation of CPB Cross-clamp is applied and cardioplegia delivered to arrest the heart, allowing a still and protected operative field Surgical repair (e.g., Ross procedure) is performed, followed by de-airing, cross-clamp removal, and reperfusion Patient is weaned from bypass with TEE reassessment, hemostasis achieved, and chest closed What is cardioplegia and how is it delivered? Cardioplegia is a potassium-rich solution that arrests myocardial activity and reduces metabolic demand Most commonly used solution in the U.S. is Del Nido cardioplegia, originally developed for pediatric myocardium Delivery strategies include: Antegrade (via aortic root) – standard approach  Ostial (direct coronary delivery) – used when aortic root cannot be relied upon  Retrograde (via coronary sinus) – useful in severe AI or coronary disease NOTE: Severe aortic regurgitation can impair antegrade delivery and requires alternative strategies and LV venting  What do cross-clamp time and bypass time represent clinically? Cross-clamp time = duration of myocardial ischemia while the heart is arrested Bypass time = total duration on CPB, reflecting systemic exposure to non-physiologic circulation Prolonged cross-clamp time (>2–3 hours) increases risk of myocardial dysfunction, especially with poor baseline function Longer bypass time is associated with increased risk of renal injury, coagulopathy, and bleeding These metrics often reflect both case complexity and intraoperative challenges What is hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA) and when is it used? HCA involves complete cessation of blood flow to allow a bloodless surgical field Typically used in complex aortic arch repairs Patients are cooled to ~18°C to reduce metabolic demand and protect organs Duration is ideally limited to

Fishhook injuries are common, surprisingly nuanced, and honestly a little intimidating until you've removed a few. In this first episode of our Minor Procedures series, we'll reel in the essentials of pediatric fishhook removal, helping you take the bait on four classic removal techniques, procedural planning, anesthesia strategies, and post-removal management. We'll discuss when to pull back, when to advance, when not to get hooked on a single technique, and how to avoid turning a simple procedure into the one that got away. Along the way we'll cover sedation, antibiotics, wound care, and practical pearls to help you land these cases with confidence. Learning Objectives Compare and select among the four major fishhook removal techniques based on hook characteristics, depth of penetration, and anatomic location. Apply evidence-based approaches to analgesia, anxiolysis, procedural sedation, and post-removal management for pediatric fishhook injuries. Identify situations requiring escalation of care, including ocular involvement, contaminated water exposure, tendon or joint involvement, and circumstances where routine management may not be sufficient.

Final editorial decisions and content responsibility remain with the author. Welcome to PEM Currents: The Pediatric Emergency Medicine Podcast. As always, I'm your host, Brad Sobolewski, and today we're gonna start a new series on minor procedures. These are the types of procedures that we perform all the time in the emergency department. They're not the subject of multicenter trials or big keynote lectures, but these are the things that patients and families remember, and trust me, they will remember them whether you do them well or not. First up, fishhook removal. So I'm hoping to reel in some listeners with this one, and so hopefully you'll take the bait, and by the end of this episode you'll understand exactly what angle I'm coming from. And hopefully I'm just not trying to make a bass of myself. So anyway, fishhook removal sounds really simple until you actually start doing it. There's not just one technique. There are four classic approaches, and I'll talk about them all, and which one you choose depends on the hook, whether there's a barb, how deep it is, where it's located, your personal experience with different techniques. Fishhook injuries in children are usually minor and most commonly involve the hands and head, though I've seen them stuck in other body parts as well. Most can be managed in the emergency department or urgent care setting with local anesthesia and basic equipment Of course, if there's concern for tendon involvement, joint penetration, neurovascular compromise, if it's anywhere near the eyeball, you should stop and rethink your plan. You know, so ortho, if it's embedded deeply in a joint, um, anything that involves the eye itself isn't necessarily an emergency department procedure, and I'm not talking about the eyebrow, I'm talking about the globe. Fortunately, that's very rare, but that's definitely an ophthalmology conversation. And so before you even think about removing, you need to understand the hook. Is this a single hook or is this a treble hook? A treble hook is a type of fishing hook that has three individual hooks and barbs arranged in a triangular formation, and they're all fused to a single shank and eye. The eye is where the line gets tied to the hook. Is it freshwater or saltwater? How long has it been there? Is it an old rusty one that was sitting in your garage? Was it underwater for a few hours and then it got hooked in the skin? And honestly, how cooperative is the kid gonna be? Because unlike actual fishing, this is one of the procedures where patience beats blunt force. So the simplest technique is retrograde removal. This is exactly what families think you're gonna do before you walk in the room. You know, just pull it out the way it went in. But that's not how hooks are designed. They have the barb. They're designed to stay in the fish. So most of the hooks that I've removed are barbed hooks, and so you can't just back them out. If you try to pull a hook out the way it came in, it's gonna catch and tug on the tissue, it's gonna lead to more pain, bleeding and tissue distortion and not really gonna get you anywhere. So just pulling it out doesn't work, and family probably would have already tried that at home. The technique I end up using most often is advance and cut. And it kind of sounds wrong the first time you explain it to a family because your solution to removing the hook is to continue to advance the hook, but mechanically, this makes the most sense. So you advance the point of the hook through the skin until the barb exits completely, then use either really good trauma shears or heavy wire cutters to cut the hook in between the shank and the barb. If it's in a location where you have, uh, enough room, I like to hold a hemostat real close to the skin, grabbing the hook. Then I cut near the barb, get the pointy part out of the way, remove the hemostats, and then back it through the skin. This is considered the most reliable technique, and in most reviews it's described as being nearly universally successful, even for larger hooks. In children, I think this needs to be the go-to technique because success matters. You just gotta get it done on the, the first attempt. Kids don't tolerate multiple failed attempts very well. Um, obvious downside is that you create a second puncture wound, but in practice, that puncture is usually controlled and much less traumatic than repeated unsuccessful pulling. Depending on where the skin's at, you may actually need to put a little bit of tension or pressure against the skin to get that hook to poke through. Ultimately, this advance and cut method is the one that you should spend the most time learning and teaching to your trainees. The string yank technique is the one that often is seen at summer camps and on YouTube videos. You loop string or heavy suture or even fishing line around the bend of the hook, apply downward pressure to the shank to disengage the barb, and then pull quickly in line with the shaft of the hook. When it works, it yanks it out almost instantly. That's why the YouTube videos are popular. One second there's a fishhook in the finger, and the next there isn't. The advantage is that this can sometimes just be performed without anesthesia and can even be done at home. The disadvantage is obvious if you work with children. This requires cooperation. Younger kids, anxious kids, a treble hook, something that's deeply embedded, like this isn't gonna work all that well, and it's, again, less reliable with bigger and deeply embedded hooks. The last technique is needle cover. This one gets less attention. It seems elegant, but in practice it's actually pretty hard to do, especially in smaller kid parts. You insert an 18-gauge needle alongside the entry tract until the bevel of that needle covers the barb, and then pull both out together The advantage is that you avoid creating a second puncture wound, and you can minimize tissue trauma. The disadvantage is it's really complex technically. Maintaining alignment of both the hook and needle can be tricky because they sort of like roll and move around. And if you want to do this one, it's probably easier for smaller and medium-sized hook rather than larger embedded or treble hooks. And as you might imagine in the literature, there's not really any randomized trials comparing these techniques. Most of what we know comes from prospective observational studies, case series, procedural experience, and expert review. Advance and cut seems to have the broadest success across scenarios. String yank does earn some points for field use and avoiding local numbing. Needle cover is hard to do, but if the parent is absolutely adamant that you don't create a second hole, then that's probably your best option. And as with any procedure, you should probably be facile in multiple techniques in case the first one doesn't work. You don't just want to stand there and flounder. Anyway, most fishhook removals in children can be done with local anesthesia alone. One percent Lido with or without epi is usually enough. Depending on the location, you may need to do a digital block or a field block instead of just injecting directly around the hook because local infiltration itself can distort the anatomy and actually make removal harder. So that's why I like blocking the digit or doing a little bit of a field block around it. If you have time, a topical anesthetic before local infiltration can be a nice gesture. LMX or EMLA can be really helpful, especially for really anxious kids or kids who are escalating before you even start setting up. They take about forty to sixty minutes. About forty-five minutes is probably ideal. So if you can get that put on in triage, that's actually a, a great technique. So if you know you're going to inject to numb to get the fishhook out, and you need a little bit of extra time to get child life or other personnel in the room, by all means, put a topical anesthetic there. It only absorbs into the outer two millimeters, but it'll help with the poke, not necessarily the burning that happens once the lidocaine is in the tissue. And now that we've talked about pain, I think it's also important to talk about anxiolysis. Most kids that have embedded fishhooks don't need full procedural sedation. If it's right next to the eye, like in the eyelid, then that might be beneficial, especially in a preschool-aged kid or younger. Plenty of them do need some anxiolysis. Um, intranasal or oral midazolam is probably, uh, the most popular option. It's got rapid onset in about twenty minutes, no IV, some amnesia. Recent pediatric data suggests that point four or point five milligrams per kilogram may perform better than lower doses, uh, for the intranasal. If you've got nitrous oxide, that's another nice option for cooperative kids. It provides anxiolysis and analgesia with rapid recovery and a very low rate of adverse respiratory events. Fishhook removal is actually one of those procedures where nitrous can feel disproportionately helpful because the procedure itself is often quick, and the hardest part is just reducing the fear and helping the kid hold still for about thirty to sixty seconds. I think ketamine still has a role. I alluded to when I might use that earlier. Occasionally, you walk into the room and then there's a deeply embedded treble hook, a really anxious child, a failed attempt prior to you being there. And ultimately, yes, IV procedural sedation with ketamine should be on the table, and it's as always an excellent option. And never, ever underestimate distraction. Hopefully, you work in a place where there are child life specialists because they are wonderful. They are magic. But you've got videos, you know, music, VR, parents. I mean, sometimes the difference between success and failure is a working iPad. And then finally, the question of antibiotics. So fishhook removal does not automatically equal a course of antibiotics. A prospective series of one hundred fishhook injuries found prophylactic antibiotics were unnecessary for uncomplicated soft tissue injuries that didn't involve the cartilage or tendon. So if you've got a contaminated wound, a delayed presentation, you know, it was already in an established infection, though I've never actually seen someone impale a fishhook into an area of cellulitis. There's tendon involvement, joint involvement, or, you know, gross water exposure. Well, then maybe consider antibiotics. Freshwater injuries do raise concern for organisms like Aeromonas. Saltwater injuries introduce concern for Vibrio species and occasionally Mycobacterium marinum enters the conversation or the tissue. Um, saltwater injuries are often treated with doxycycline plus a third-generation cephalosporin. You recognize the doxy decisions in younger children require some additional consideration. Freshwater injuries could push you towards broader Gram-negative coverage, but, but honestly, for most fishhook injuries, especially in healthy children, you're just dealing with skin flora. So once I get the hook out, I make sure there's no other retained foreign bodies, like little pieces of the hook or little pieces of the barb. I irrigate with saline or tap water, maybe a hundred mLs for a smaller hook, more for bigger hooks or grossly contaminated wounds. Make sure that there's full neurovascular function and normal range of motion. Antibiotic ointment, simple dressing, update their tetanus shot if it's not been within five years, and explain to the family that the good news is that this is really a forgiving injury most of the time. Once the hook is out, these generally heal really well. We don't need to suture them back up. We're not worried about long-term damage. Tell the parents to watch out for increasing redness, worsening pain, pus drainage, fever, or other systemic symptoms, trouble moving the area, especially if it was around a digit, you know, numbness or anything else that makes you concerned that infection has started instead of healing. Families will almost always ask jokingly when they can fish again. Honestly, usually pretty quickly. Just don't put the wound under water until it's healed, and don't stand directly behind whoever is casting. And now for some take-home points. Fishhook removal is a simple and straightforward procedure where technique really matters. You have to know what type of hook is embedded in the skin. Retrograde does work for superficial or barbless hooks, but most fishhooks that I've seen have barbs because they are designed to stay in the fish. Advance and cut is probably the most broadly successful technique. String yank works if you're a YouTuber. Needle cover is really, I think, only for those scenarios where the family does not want a second hole. It's really actually hard to do. Local anesthesia is enough for most kids, so injecting with lidocaine. If you have time, LMX or EMLA helps with the poke a little bit. Routine antibiotics are not usually necessary. And if there's ocular involvement or if it's in a joint, call an ophthalmologist or an orthopedist. Honestly, this is one of those procedures that's really satisfying once you get comfortable with it. I love doing it with our residents and trainees. Families come in expecting something dramatic, and by the time they leave, they're surprised by how straightforward it was. And I guarantee that this is a story that they will tell for years and years. And if you do a good job and make it a good experience and perhaps even a lighthearted one, they are going to remember that. And yeah, you'll be part of somebody's fishing story. So I hope you did enjoy this first episode on minor procedures. I'm gonna do additional ones like these along the way because, you know, I think that they don't get a lot of love when it comes to traditional education. If you've got any ideas for future procedures or topics, please send them my way. As the kids would say, like, rate, and review. If you leave a review on your favorite podcast site, that would really help other people discover the show. I podcast because I think it's a great way to teach, and I've been doing so since 2013. And yes, you can remove a fishhook. Don't let this straightforward procedure become the one that got away. For PEM Currents: The Pediatric Emergency Medicine Podcast, this has been Brad Sobolewski.
