Welcome to the DMF!I'm Justin Younts, and in this episode, Sara Alessandrini opens up about the chaotic and often brutal world of documentary filmmaking.Sara walks us through the challenges she faced while creating her documentary — challenges that went far beyond the expected hurdles of production. She dealt with legal threats, bullying, and intense pushback from some of the very people she interviewed. What was meant to be a creative pursuit quickly revealed the darker, more hostile side of the industry.Throughout the episode, Sara explains how she navigated these obstacles: managing aggressive interviewees, protecting herself legally, and fighting tirelessly to get her film accepted into festivals. She shares the emotional toll the project took on her and the determination she needed to keep her vision alive despite the odds stacked against her.For Sara, this journey wasn't just about making a film — it became a test of strength, resilience, and integrity. She discusses the importance of due process, the complexities of handling real stories responsibly, and what it means to stand your ground in a competitive and often unforgiving industry.If you're an aspiring filmmaker or simply curious about the behind-the-scenes realities of documentary production, this episode offers raw insight, hard-earned lessons, and inspiration to keep pushing forward no matter the challenges.Join us as Sara pulls back the curtain on the truth, the chaos, and the courage it takes to tell a story that matters.00:00:01 - Introduction00:00:06 - The Role of Politicians00:00:42 - The Making of the Documentary00:01:30 - Challenges in the Film Industry00:01:49 - The Process of Making a Documentary00:01:59 - The Impact of Bullying in the Film Industry00:02:02 - The Fight for Ownership of the Documentary00:02:14 - The Transition from a Documentary to a Mini Series00:02:25 - The Release and Reception of the Documentary00:02:36 - The Politics Behind the Documentary00:04:09 - Legal Challenges and Threats00:04:32 - The Screening of the Documentary00:08:01 - The Confrontation at the Film Festival00:09:08 - The Aftermath and Ongoing Legal Issues00:10:39 - The Attempt to Sabotage the Documentary00:11:18 - The Aftermath of the Screening00:11:43 - The New Documentary Project00:12:16 - The Motives Behind the New Documentary00:12:45 - The Scam Behind the New Documentary00:13:16 - The Desire for Fame and Recognition00:14:00 - The Misunderstanding of the Role of a Producer00:15:06 - The Reality of the Movie Industry00:15:11 - The Problem of Unfinished Movies00:15:25 - The Misuse of Funds in Film Production00:15:40 - The Need for Legal Protection in the Film Industry00:16:04 - The Issue with Personal Motives in Film Production00:16:29 - The Miscommunication of Risk in Film Funding00:16:50 - The Misrepresentation of Film Producers00:18:00 - The Influence of Current Events on Documentary Editing00:19:38 - The Challenges of Editing a Documentary00:21:09 - The Process of Distributing a Documentary00:22:03 - The Role of Aggregators in Film Distribution00:22:57 - The Decision to Self-Distribute00:23:51 - The Process of Getting a Documentary Approved for Distribution00:24:42 - The Role of AI in Film Editing00:28:32 - The Future Plans of the Filmmaker00:30:34 - Daily Routine and Meditation00:31:37 - Physical Fitness and Sports00:32:26 - Reading and Family History00:33:25 - Music Preference00:33:40 - Watching Habits and Recent Movies00:35:22 - Contact InformationCheck out Sara's website, where you can learn more about the documentary miniseries and find links to watch it! https://www.thisiswhatnewyorkerssay.com https://www.instagram.com/lasava.alessandrini/

Skin cancer affects one in five Americans, with nonmelanoma types like basal and squamous cell carcinoma making up most cases. Niacinamide, a form of vitamin B3, is found to offer a strong preventive effect A recent study published in JAMA Dermatology associated niacinamide use with a 14% lower overall risk of developing additional nonmelanoma skin cancers, with the greatest benefit seen after the first cancer diagnosis Earlier research showed that taking 500 milligrams of niacinamide twice daily reduced new nonmelanoma skin cancers by 23% and precancerous lesions by up to 15% Niacinamide protects your skin by restoring NAD+ for DNA repair, reducing inflammation, supporting immune defenses, and strengthening the barrier that maintains moisture and resilience against environmental stress For long-term use, smaller daily doses of 50 milligrams three times per day are safe and sustainable. Combining niacinamide with sensible sun exposure habits and good nutrition strengthens skin defense naturally

In this episode of For Humanity, John sits down with Liv Boeree — poker champion, systems thinker, and longtime AI risk advocate — for a candid conversation about where we truly stand in the race toward advanced AI. Liv breaks down why public understanding of superintelligence is so uneven, how misaligned incentives shape the entire ecosystem, and why issues like surveillance, culture, and gender dynamics matter more than people realize.They explore the emotional realities of working on existential risk, the impact of doomscrolling, and how mindset and intuition keep people grounded in such turbulent times. The result is a clear, grounded, and surprisingly hopeful look at the future of technology, power, and responsibility.

Your portfolio might be due for an end-of-the-year cleanup. The Morningstar US Market Index is up about 15% through mid-November 2025, and overall performance has been strong for years (even after 2022's down market). That said, some stock sectors have performed significantly better than others, and performance can vary widely even within a sector. That could mean you'relikely holding some winners and some losers. Tax-loss harvesting could help trim your tax bill to save some money. While you're tuning up your portfolio, it could also be a good opportunity to bring your asset allocation back into balance.

Medicaid is a massive, life-sustaining program whose new work requirements and funding cuts risk stripping coverage from millions of people who can't afford to lose it. In this episode, Cindy Mann, partner at Manatt Health and former director of the Center for Medicaid and CHIP Services, explains how Medicaid was created alongside Medicare in 1965 and has grown into the nation's largest public coverage program, serving nearly 80 million people across diverse populations.

What would you risk to win the deal of a lifetime?In this episode, I'm sharing the behind-the-scenes story of one of the most competitive acquisitions of my career—where I took a $30,000 gamble before getting the deal, beat out five other buyers, and closed in just three days. And yes, I turned a former strip club into a retail center generating $740,000 in NOI.This wasn't luck—it was strategy, speed, and a little creative thinking. I'll walk you through the relationships I spent years building, the unconventional move my partner suggested, and the mindset that helped me take the leap. If you've ever been neck-and-neck for a deal, this episode will challenge the way you play the game.Because sometimes, the deal doesn't go to the highest bidder—it goes to the boldest.

What motivates you? The high side or the low side? John the Baptist sang the funeral song, and Jesus sang the wedding song, but still the people didn't move. What does it take for you to go deeper with God? Do you need to be yelled and told to repent like John the Baptist, or does the love and celebration of a wedding with Jesus move you? We may not realize it, but it is our choice whether we operate from the low side or the high side.

Rather than accepting oversimplified medical advice, this episode empowers you to think critically, understand uncertainty in medicine, and make fully informed decisions about your own health. You'll learn how to interpret risk statistics (like relative vs absolute risk), why lifestyle may outperform medication for many people, and why statins are helpful for some—yet potentially unnecessary or harmful for others. If you've ever been told "your cholesterol is high, you need a statin," this episode will give you the tools to ask better questions and understand whether that advice truly applies to someone like you.   Key Takeaways: -Medical uncertainty is real — many "facts" are actually opinions without solid or applicable evidence. -Statins help some people more than others: -Strong evidence for people who already had a heart attack. -Much smaller benefit (sometimes minimal) for healthy, active people without prior heart disease. -Absolute vs. relative risk matters: -A "25% reduction in risk" may really mean only 1 fewer event per 100 people. -Lifestyle changes can reduce risk by 50–80%, often outperforming statin benefits—especially for people who exercise, eat whole foods, avoid smoking, keep weight down, and drink moderately. -Statin risks are real: Muscle pain: up to 1 in 10 Diabetes risk increased: about 1 in 200 Possible cognitive impairment (enough for an FDA warning) Polypharmacy (multiple medications) increases uncertainty and side-effect risks.   Get your copy of Good Food Great Medicine, 4th ed.: https://a.co/d/1D6hIYM More references can be found at www.GreatMed.org   Would you like Dr. Hassell to answer your question on the air?

"Keep marlin and reef fish off the menu," That's the message from recreational fishers as the government plans to let commercial fishing companies keep and sell bycatch, that right now can't be used. Fisheries New Zealand is proposing 19 regulation changes, which include dropping protections for marlin and 19 reef-fish species outside the Quota Management System. The changes would mean the dead fish could be sold for profit. Advocates say it's putting a target on Aotearoa's vunerable and slow-growing species and will further diminish our already dwindling public fishery. Bella Craig reports.

How much market risk do you actually need to reach your retirement goals? In this episode, Ken and Jeremy walk through the trade-off between return and volatility, how mix (e.g., 60/40 vs. 30/70) changes portfolio behavior, why diversification helps—but isn't a cure-all—and why the “most important decade” (five years before and five years after retirement) deserves extra care.Ready to talk through your plan?

A Classic RISK! episode from our early years that first ran in September of 2013, when RISK! had its first live show in the city that keeps it weird: Austin, Texas.

Can the chicken on your plate be causing urinary tract infections? New research says yes — and the findings may shock you.   In this must-watch episode of The Exam Room Podcast, host Chuck Carroll is joined by Dr. Neal Barnard to break down a landmark study revealing that poultry—especially chicken—is responsible for approximately 1 in 5 UTIs in the United States.   Dr. Barnard explains:   - How E. coli from poultry contaminates meat - Why cooking isn't enough to eliminate risk - How cross-contamination happens in home kitchens - Why infection rates spike in certain communities - What a plant-based diet does to dramatically reduce UTI risk - Foods like cranberries and blueberries that help prevent infections naturally   They also dive into Thanksgiving food myths, the realities of poultry production, antibiotic resistance, and how simple dietary changes can protect your health.   If you've ever struggled with UTIs—or you simply want to understand how diet affects your risk—this episode is essential viewing.   Read the full study: https://bit.ly/UTISourceStudy  

PREVIEW Mary Anastasia O'Grady of the Wall Street Journal editorial page discusses the upcoming Honduran election, noting the risk of it being stolen by the ruling Libre party. Current President Castro, associated with a former drug-trafficking president, won on promises of cleaning up corruption, but this has failed. Despite trailing, the party is suspected of taking actions to retain power. Guest: Mary Anastasia O'Grady.

A study found that alcohol raises dementia risk at every level of drinking, overturning decades of claims that moderate use protects your brain Even light drinking damages neurons, disrupts mitochondrial energy production, and accelerates brain aging, showing there is no safe dose for cognitive health Genetic data revealed that for every measurable increase in alcohol consumption, dementia risk rose by about 15%, with the danger extending across all age and ancestry groups Alcohol and linoleic acid (LA) from seed oils follow the same toxic pathway in your liver, creating harmful aldehydes that cause mitochondrial damage and fatty liver disease, both of which impair brain function Reducing or eliminating alcohol and cutting seed oils to under 5 grams per day — ideally 2 grams — support liver recovery, restore mitochondrial function, and protect long-term brain health

FEMA was meant to help only when disasters exceeded state capacity. Yet today it functions primarily as a national subsidy machine, encouraging development in floodplains, bailing out wealthy coastal states, and shifting costs onto taxpayers far from the danger zones. The Cato Institute's Dominik Lett and Chris Edwards discuss how well-intentioned federal aid has created perverse incentives, bureaucratic delays, and a long tail of spending that continues decades after storms like Katrina.

In this episode of Life of a CISO, Dr. Eric Cole explains the top priorities every CISO must focus on as we move into 2026. He begins by highlighting the importance of personal health and why nutrition, hydration, and daily habits directly impact your ability to lead and make smart decisions in cybersecurity. After facing his own health challenges and losing friends in the industry, he shares why health must be the starting point for any world-class CISO. Dr. Cole also breaks down what it means to operate as a true chief officer. He covers why CISOs need to work in person with other executives, ask better questions, and always be prepared with the three slides that guide clear risk decisions. He also discusses the lessons learned from recent cloud outages and why understanding risk posture and critical data is essential for 2026. The episode encourages listeners to begin planning now, build their CISO roadmap, reduce noise, and strengthen their executive mindset.   Access Dr. Cole's $299 course deal here: https://ar407.infusionsoft.app/app/storeFront/showProductDetail?productId=135  

20201 Vital Plan & Coffee for Heart Health Podcast | Dare To Be Vital BookFIVE PRIMARY POINTS of the PODCAST1. Vitamin D Dramatically Reduces Heart Attack RiskNew American Heart Association data shows that maintaining vitamin D levels >40 ng/mL for ~4 years cuts recurrent heart attack risk by 52%. Most participants required 5,000 IU/day—far above the current FDA recommendation—to reach optimal levels, making vitamin D testing and personalized supplementation a critical and cost-effective intervention.2. Structured Exercise Improves Cancer SurvivalA large randomized trial in colorectal cancer patients found 90% survival with structured exercise vs. 83% with health education alone (a 42% relative reduction in mortality). Supervised and behaviorally supported exercise—not just information—is required to produce this survival advantage.3. Exercise Should Be Prescribed as Medicine for Cancer PatientsThe transcript highlights mechanisms—myokines, reduced inflammation, better fitness, and increased natural killer cell activity—that explain why exercise reduces cancer mortality. Recommendation: oncologists should prescribe personalized strength and fitness programs as part of cancer care.4. Exercise Is One of the Most Powerful Sleep OptimizersA study of 380 medical students showed:* Low physical activity = poor sleep quality* Being overweight or stressed worsens sleep* Strength training is the most effective exercise modality for improving sleep.The message: Use movement—especially strength training—to break the “doom loop” of poor sleep and inactivity.5. Vitality Is a Skill: Small Daily Choices CompoundThe episode reinforces two overarching themes:* Vitality is a skill you can learn, practice, and improve.* Vitality powers performance—especially through the synergy of exercise, sleep, vitamin D, strength, and connection.The weekly action: Get your vitamin D level checked and optimize it with guidance from your doctor.Copyright VyVerse LLC, All Rights Reserved This is a public episode.

Winter is coming, and so are the big questions for natural gas. From near-record storage levels and shifting weather models to surging LNG exports and price volatility, the natural gas market is facing one of its most complex setups in years. To help sort through it all, Andy Huenefeld, a seasoned energy market analyst with Pinebrook Energy Advisors and managing partner at the firm, joins NGI's Jodi Shafto, senior markets editor, to discuss the major market drivers that could send natural gas prices soaring this winter heating season.

Every Now and Zen I wax a little existential on here; doing so at least gets in the neighborhood of scratching that writer itch.Daylight Savings has been over for a bit, and I think we're all still adjusting to it getting dark at 5:00 (soon to be 4:30), bracing for the holidays, and stirring the miniature marshmallows of emotion into the cocoa that is the forthcoming cold.I have a fat bundle of youth basketball games to look forward to watching to, and the last week or so with my high-school-freshman daughter has been decent, better perhaps than it was at the end of October, so that's where my focus is attempting to be right now: on the positive.On that note, I continue to be excited about the podcast continuing to roll in the direction of its 200th episode, and this week's was a bunch of fun.Chris Clark of Blue Oyster Culture Club (as well as Sisters of...) joined me for Episode No. 191, and I really enjoyed getting to know him and talking about his experiences growing up, making pals for life, joining bands, and making music. We also had a look at a few of Chris' favorite albums. Those were these:Led Zeppelin IV (1971)Season to Risk's self-titled debut (1993)Sunny Day Real Estate's Diary (1994)Show (1994), The Jesus LizardSigur Rós' () (2002)Find Chris on Facebook or Instagram (@beerdedclark) to keep tabs on all things B.O.C.C., and find the two Sisters of... releases on Apple Music or Spotify.Thanks to Mr. Clark for making the trek down to K.C. from St. Joe, and props to all of you that support the show.Note: Bill Brownlee's other Web site is called There Stands the Glass; I called it something else by mistake during my conversation with Chris.copyright disclaimer: I used snippets of Robert Plant's "Big Log," for this episode, and they're not mine; I own zero rights to them. It's a cut from his 1983 release, Principle of Moments. Plant came up in our conversation, and was very much on the brain once I hit that portion of the episode edit. So, I quickly poked at Plant's solo hits looking for this one, and when I found it I remembered that I've always found the name to be stupid. Until a few moments ago when I glanced at the song's Wikipedia page:"'Big Log' was written in the middle of winter. We'd run out of fuel for the fire. We found the remains of an old tree lying outside, which was about 15 feet long, but had nothing to cut it with. So we put one end in the fire and slowly burnt it, till it was hollow."And now I love the name. Kudos to guitarist Robbie Blunt for writing some super-fantastic licks for this tune. Timeless.

In 2025, Creating Dementia Solutions is looking deeper into what The Lancet Commission on dementia prevention, intervention and care has indicated are ways people can reduce their risk of dementia.Among those factors: Excessive DrinkingIn this episode, Recovery Coach Jennifer Dillion and Outpatient Clinician Kira Jones from Summit Pointe discuss what exactly is "excessive drinking" and why it's not a one size fits all answer.  Episode ResourcesThe Lancet Commission Risk Factors for DementiaMiles for Memories websiteMiles for Memories technologySherii Sherban talks to Community Matters about MFM technologyMore Creating Dementia Solutions episodesABOUT MILES FOR MEMORIESMiles For Memories is a Calhoun County, Michigan organization created in 2013 to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer's Disease. Later in 2014, the vision was expanded to include all types of dementia.

Freelancers everywhere are feeling it. The ground beneath our feet is shifting, because AI isn't just changing how we write. It's also changing where value lives in our industry. In this episode, I break down what few people are talking about: your writing skills might still be world-class, but they're now solving the wrong problem. Much of what I discuss was inspired by the brilliant new book Reshuffle: Who Wins When AI Restacks the Knowledge Economy by Sangeet Paul Choudary. The constraint that once made your writing indispensable has moved. And if you don't move with it, you risk becoming the business equivalent of a brilliant typewriter repair shop in 1975. I dive deep into the real economic shift happening under AI's rise, revealing how to follow where value is migrating in your market before your competitors do. What You'll Learn Why AI hasn't destroyed demand for writers; it's just moved the constraint How to spot the new "value zones" in your market before others see them Why "average" AI content isn't your protection (and what is) The critical shift from creation to curation, and how to monetize your judgment How to reframe your positioning around risk, coordination, and confidence A simple 3-step method to identify where your next big opportunity lies Why your future role looks less like a writer and more like a producer or orchestrator Key Ideas and Takeaways 1. The Sommelier's Secret Your clients aren't drowning in a lack of content. They're drowning in options. AI made creation cheap, but it didn't make discernment easy. The most valuable freelancers now sell confidence and clarity, not just words. 2. Follow the Constraint The value constraint has shifted: From scarcity to risk (ensuring AI content doesn't harm the brand) From production to coordination (helping teams align their AI use) From creation to curation and orchestration (judgment, taste, and integration) 3. Be the Fugu Chef Like a sushi master trusted with a poisonous fish, your job is now about managing risk and trust. Clients will pay more for your judgment than your keyboard. 4. The Rick Rubin Lesson Think this is all outside your wheelhouse? I urge you to reconsider. You have more skill, wisdom, and capability than you think. Music producer Rick Rubin can't play a single musical instrument or read music. But he produces masterpieces. Your value is no longer in typing faster or crafting prettier sentences. It's in creating the conditions for the right ideas and messages to emerge. 5. Rebundling Your Business The future isn't about resisting AI. Instead, it's about rebundling your value around new constraints: From "I write blog posts" to "I ensure your content strategy doesn't become an AI dumpster fire." From "I write email campaigns" to "I orchestrate customer journeys across your entire AI-powered stack." From "I create copy" to "I protect your reputation while scaling your message." 6. Your 30-Day Constraint Hunt Start finding your next opportunity: List what clients pay you for today. Ask what happens when AI makes each thing 10x faster and cheaper. Find the break points, the new problems that emerge when your old services get automated. That's where your next business model lives. Action Steps Run a "Constraint Audit": Pick one client and map where things break when AI enters the picture. Test a Micro-Offer: Solve one small constraint (e.g., "brand safety audit for AI content"). Rework Your Positioning: Stop describing what you do. Start describing what you protect or enable. Experiment with New Framing: "I manage [CONSTRAINT] so you can [OUTCOME] without [RISK]." Memorable Soundbites "Your writing skills are now solving the wrong problem." "The constraint that used to keep your skills in demand is moving rapidly." "AI has removed that obstacle, that constraint." "This is the dumbest and most incapable these tools will ever be." "The constraint is rapidly moving from 'create content' to 'ensure content doesn't erode or destroy our reputation.'" "We're becoming the fugu chefs of content." "The break points, that's where you might just find your next business model." "You're not selling writing. You're selling judgment, coordination, and confidence in a world where writing is free but trust is expensive." "Stop asking 'What can't AI do yet?' Start asking 'What does AI break?' Because in that break, in that new constraint, that's where your next level lives."
