Send a textFirmTech's mission is better sexual health for everyone with smart wearables that provide the vital signs of their most vital organ.. The company's first phase of innovative products focuses on keeping men fit and firm for a lifetime of lovemaking. Men and their physicians need objective and personal data so men can avoid ED, and if they have it, stop its progression and potentially reverse it. Dr. Justin and his FirmTech team have developed and marketed the TechRing, a transformative erection ring to help men optimize personal “erectile fitness,” and to inspire better erectile and cardiovascular health through engaging with objective data about their sexual health. Urologists call the penis the “canary in the coal mine” of cardiovascular health. Website: https://myfirmtech.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/myfirmtech/X (Twitter): https://x.com/myfirmtechLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/elliot-justin-md/What if your bedroom could be as measurable as your morning run? We sit down with Dr. Justin Early, emergency physician turned telehealth pioneer and CEO of FirmTech, to explore how a smart erection ring turns sexual performance into objective data—and why those numbers can double as an early warning for cardiovascular risk. No more guesswork, vague labels, or one‑size‑fits‑all pills; this conversation lays out a clear path to sexual fitness you can actually track.We unpack why the traditional ED diagnosis fails most people by grouping different problems together, and we look at how short clinic visits, insurance incentives, and subjective questionnaires leave patients without meaningful guidance. Instead, we walk through the core metrics that matter—nocturnal erection frequency, firmness, duration, and detumescence—and reveal a surprising insight from the world's largest erection dataset: for many men without severe disease, nocturnal firmness holds steady far longer than expected. The real issue for most aging men is blood leak, not lack of inflow.

Most advisory marketing doesn't fail because advisors aren't trying—it fails because the funnel breaks in predictable places, leaving great content and good intentions without a clear path to consistent leads. This episode explores the most common "break points" in advisor marketing funnels, as well as what it takes to build a strategy that attracts the right prospects, communicates value quickly, and makes it easy for prospects to take the next step towards becoming a client. Kendra Wright is the owner of Rebel Media Agency, a marketing firm based in Austin, Texas, that helps RIAs establish and execute clear marketing strategies. She joins us today to share the four ways she most often sees advisor marketing funnels break and how advisors can get what she calls "ideal client clarity" without necessarily forcing themselves into a single ultra-narrow niche. We also discuss how firms can choose a marketing channel that fits their client profile, why it's important for advisor content to be "targeted" in order to stand out, and how advisors can better move prospects from content to client.

The Peter Boyles Show - February 21, 2026 HOUR 3: Peter is joined by Chuck Morris and Flobots member Stephen "Brer Rabbit" Brackett for a wide-ranging conversation about unconventional career paths in music, radio, and live entertainment. The hour covers the Flobots’ early days in Denver, teaching and activism before getting signed, and why most successful careers don’t begin with a clear plan. The discussion shifts into stories from the old Colorado concert scene, club promotion, and Peter’s early work in professional wrestling — including ring announcing, promoters, and learning hard lessons about getting paid. The hour closes with a candid look at how the music business has changed: consolidation, touring as the main income, streaming economics, and the growing impact of AI-generated music on artists and audiences.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

SpaceTime with Stuart Gary | Astronomy, Space & Science News
SpaceTime with Stuart Gary Gary - Series 29 Episode 22In this episode of SpaceTime, we delve into the formation of the universe's most enigmatic objects, explore the origins of Saturn's iconic rings, and get updates on NASA's Artemis 2 mission.Black Holes and Exotic Cosmic StructuresA groundbreaking study suggests that some of the universe's most exotic entities, including black holes and cannibal stars, may have formed just seconds after the Big Bang. Researchers from the International School of Advanced Studies propose that subatomic particles condensed into halos of matter, which then collapsed to create these fascinating cosmic structures. Their findings, published in Physical Review D, indicate that even in the earliest moments of the universe, complex physical phenomena were already taking shape, paving the way for our understanding of cosmic evolution.The Formation of Saturn's RingsNew research proposes that Saturn's largest moon, Titan, may have formed from the collision of two older moons, potentially linking this event to the creation of Saturn's spectacular ring system. The study, reported in the Planetary Science Journal, utilizes computer simulations to explore the dynamics of Saturn's moons and their interactions, suggesting that Titan's merger could explain its unique orbit and the age of the rings, estimated to be around 100 million years.NASA's Artemis 2 Mission UpdateFollowing the recent scrubbing of the Artemis 2 launch due to hydrogen leaks, NASA has made significant repairs and is preparing for another attempt. Engineers have replaced seals in the mobile launcher's umbilical area and are conducting further testing to ensure the rocket's readiness. With multiple launch windows available in March, the Artemis 2 mission aims to test key systems aboard the Orion spacecraft, setting the stage for future lunar exploration and the eventual return of humans to the Moon.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesPhysical Review D, Planetary Science JournalBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-with-stuart-gary--2458531/support.

The year of the horse has officially begun after Tuesday's Lunar New Year marked the end of the year of the snake. Lunar New Year is a holiday celebrated by many Asian cultures across the world. Each year is tied to a specific zodiac animal as well as one of five elements. 2026 is the first time in 60 years that we are welcoming the year of the fire horse. To usher in this new era, a new exhibition at the Minneapolis Institute of Art showcases the significance of the horse across 3,000 years of Chinese art. The exhibition, “Year of the Horse: Hoofbeats Through Time” opened Wednesday and will be open through Aug. 30. Curator Liu Yang joined Minnesota Now to talk about the exhibition.
The Patriots have a significant decision and potential paycheck looming regarding 2025 leading receiver Stefon Diggs, who is on the books for over $20 million, not to mention $6 million guaranteed in March. Would the team benefit from letting their de facto emotional leader and best receiver from this past season walk and use that money on a younger, healthier replacement? Could they have gotten the most out of Diggs? And who should they look into? Fitzy and Mego debate as the 6 Rings 2026 Offseason officially begins!

Episode: S05E42 — Wednesday, February 18, 2026 Hosts: Anna & Avery Network: Bitesz.com Podcast Network In today's episode of Astronomy Daily, Anna and Avery cover six unmissable stories from across the cosmos. Here's what we're talking about in S05E42: 1. Artemis II Wet Dress Rehearsal Round Two NASA begins fuelling the SLS moon rocket tomorrow (Feb 19) for a second critical practice countdown. Engineers have replaced two seals and a filter after hydrogen leaks forced the February launch window to be abandoned. A clean test is required before NASA will commit to a launch date — currently no earlier than March 6. The four-person crew includes Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen, each of whom will make history on the flight. 2. Moon Occults Mercury Tonight — Plus a Ganymede Transit Tonight, February 18, a thin crescent Moon passes so close to Mercury that observers in Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Georgia will see the Moon hide Mercury in a rare occultation. For everyone else, a stunning close conjunction is visible in the western sky just after sunset. Simultaneously, Jupiter's moon Ganymede transits the gas giant's face through the night. Two events, one evening. 3. Ariane 6 Launches Amazon Kuiper Satellites Europe's most powerful Ariane 6 configuration successfully launched 32 satellites for Amazon's Project Kuiper broadband constellation today — a direct competitor to SpaceX's Starlink. The launch highlights both the commercial ambitions of Amazon's internet satellite programme and the ongoing resurgence of European launch capability. 4. 3I/ATLAS Update: JUICE Data Downlinking Now ESA's JUICE spacecraft is currently transmitting data it collected on interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS back to Earth — the downlink window runs February 18–20. If successful, this would be the closest-ever spacecraft observations of an interstellar object. Meanwhile, 3I/ATLAS heads toward a close Jupiter flyby in March that may trigger fresh outbursts. 5. How Titan Formed — And Why Saturn Has Rings New research from the SETI Institute proposes a single ancient catastrophe that explains multiple Saturn mysteries at once: a moon called proto-Hyperion collided with proto-Titan about 400 million years ago. The merger debris re-accreted into Saturn's inner moons and left behind the iconic ring system. The hypothesis also explains Saturn's unusual axial tilt, Iapetus's orbital inclination, and the surprising youth of Titan's surface. 6. Russia's 30-Day Mars Engine Rosatom's Troitsk Institute is ground-testing a nuclear-powered magnetoplasma engine that its developers claim could reach Mars in 30 days — compared to 8 months for chemical rockets. With a plasma exhaust velocity of 100 km/s, the system is part of a global race toward deep-space plasma propulsion also being pursued by NASA's VASIMR programme and Chinese researchers. A flight prototype is targeted for 2030. Follow & Connect
Squeaks, Frank, Jon and Thomas cover a packed episode that jumps from dream low-stakes spin-off ideas (God of War politics, Fallout slice-of-life, and cozy Shire chaos) into real-world hype around the Spider-Noir trailer and how Nicolas Cage changes the whole vibe in the best way. From there, the crew breaks down standout PlayStation State of Play reveals, including what they want from a God of War trilogy remake, why Game Freak's new project has people paying attention again, and which upcoming titles actually look worth the time. Then the conversation shifts into a big streaming debate: weekly releases vs binge drops vs the hybrid "first 2–3 episodes, then weekly" model. They dig into what works for mystery box shows like WandaVision and Severance, what falls apart when the writing doesn't match the release strategy, and why some series thrive when fans have time to theory-craft between episodes. The episode wraps with network updates and weekly recommendations, including a Cyclops comic shoutout and a heartfelt nod to Stevie's retirement from Good Mythical Morning after 13 years.

Mystery box, character drama, sitcoms, and action 00:57:19 Network updates: upcoming shows, format shifts, and what's next across the Geek Freaks Network 00:58:19 Recommendations: Cyclops comic spotlight and Stevie's Good Mythical Morning retirement tribute Key Takeaways Big franchises can feel fresh again with smaller stories that focus on everyday life, side characters, and worldbuilding instead of saving the universe. Spider-Noir looks like it's leaning into style and personality, and Nicolas Cage makes it feel like its own thing instead of "another Spider-Man." Prime Video's track record with adaptations is earning trust, even when the company itself is a mixed bag for fans. State of Play talk lands on a simple truth: remakes need to feel rebuilt, not just polished. Game Freak has goodwill to win back, and a new IP might be their best shot to prove they can still deliver quality. Release models matter because writing matters. A weekly show needs episodes that stand on their own, not just pieces of a long movie. Weekly releases fuel theorizing, discussion, and community engagement. Binge releases maximize momentum and completion. The "2–3 episode premiere, then weekly" approach can be the sweet spot when it's planned from the start. Memorable Quotes "I want a Stardew Valley set in the Fallout universe." "Nicolas Cage is not a Spider-Man… Spider-Man is being made into a Nicolas Cage character." "It's not a remaster. It's a remake." "Once we find out what's up with the goats, the show's over." "That's a watercooler moment because everybody was like, wait, what happened?"

The road to Super Bowl LX ends in Santa Clara. In a matchup very few would have predicted at the beginning of the season, the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks are set for a championship rematch over a decade in the making. While the Patriots pulled off an amazing victory in Super Bowl XLIX, the Seahawks enter this Sunday as the favorites. Three-time Super Bowl champion and FOX Sports analyst Daryl “Moose” Johnston joined Chris Foster earlier this week to break down the X's and O's of the big game. Moose explains why he believes Seattle is the most complete team in the NFL and how Sam Darnold successfully "exercised his demons" against the blitz to reach this stage. Moose also discussed his own experience playing in the Super Bowl—sharing how he prepared for the big game and performed with the whole world watching. Additionally, he explains what players actually do during the halftime show and what it was like playing in the Super Bowl when Michael Jackson performed. We often must cut our interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full conversation. Today on the FOX News Rundown Extra, we share our entire interview with Dallas Cowboys legend and FOX Sports Analyst Daryl “Moose” Johnston, providing deeper big-game analysis and a look at what it will be like for the players taking the field this Sunday.
