Full show notes: bengreenfieldlife.com/505 In this solosode, you'll get the latest on microplastics, spinal disc health, and what a heart scan sees that a cholesterol panel misses. A new seven-day trial pitted five plastic-avoidance strategies against each other, and the results tell you exactly where to spend your effort if you can't overhaul everything at once. You'll hear which plastic sources matter most and what I now take before bed with BrocElite® (use code BEN for 25% off your first month) to help clear microplastics from tissue. Then I get personal about my back. I'll walk you through my full-body MRI results, which show significant degeneration from L1 to S1, and explain why I still have almost zero back pain, from Dr. Stuart McGill's Big 3 to inversion hanging, the couch stretch, the founder stretch from Foundation Training, and my WALKOLUTION® treadmill desk ($100 off, enter your email for a unique code). You'll also learn why running was the only activity linked to healthier spinal discs in a study of more than 4,000 people, and why none of the sports people assume are hard on your back showed harm. Finally, you'll hear what a coronary CT angiography measures that your cholesterol panel cannot, why a 6,061-person study found plaque volume beats any standard risk calculator, what my own scan revealed, and the surprisingly simple thing that appears highly protective even when your plaque is already elevated.

Hey this is Alex, welcome to... the chillest week in AI, since ... a long time. Chill, if you consider Moderna and MERK announcing a cancer vaccine and surging 115% in a day, a chill week. This week, the only two model drops we really saw came from the excellent Z.ai folks, they announced GLM 5.3, API only for now, and an amazing tiny release of Qwen 3.89 27B. In other big AI news, OpenAI announced they are pausing RL efforts (Reinforcement Learning) to focus on security and alignment post the scary AI Swarms hacking incident, dedicating up to 20% of compute towards reviewing agent thinking processes, and Stripe buying OpenRouter for a reported $8B! Sometimes the chill weeks are actually good, we're able to chat about how we use AI, what changed for us, and give our guests a bit of breathing room. This week, I invited Francesco from CUA to talk about computer use in open source + their new history plugin, Bin from HeyGen to talk about HyperFrames, a way for your agents to create videos and a breaking news guest, Jeff Huber from Chroma jumped on to talk about their new Foundations release, a unified memory for your agents! This was a great episode, I hope you'll like it, it's up here on Substack and everywhere you get your pod (Spotify, Youtube, Apple Podcasts). ThursdAI - Highest signal weekly AI news show is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Are we being fed slop again? (Is Claude dumb again?)Before we get to releases, this week on the show, I complained, again, that I feel my AI's are degrading. If this feels like de-ja-vu to you, it's because the same happened a year ago in September 2025 (and Anthropic admitting this 2 weeks later), and ... now this happens with Fable?You see, I use pretty much the same prompts, every week, preparing for the show. This is partly my way to evaluate new models and compare to existing and previous ones while also bringing you the best researched weekly show in AI. Well, this week, one after another, Claude Fable, which is... like the best intelligence, gave me such poor output, that I couldn't believe what I'm seeing. First, literally ignoring instructions that say “hey, show me all the items I've collected and let me pick the most important ones”, Fable instead sent all of them to my research pipeline, without showing me. This has worked, consistently, without fail, for the past... year? maybe more! This worked with open source models, worked with GPT, and now Fable, a Mythos Level LLM, is doing the most basic dumb s**t possible, ignoring the main reason I even have this workflow. And this wasn't just a fluke either, when asked to create a run of show document, and given an example, Fable produced this... whatever this is. This is the same document and same format that Fable produced for me during AI Engineer which got me thinking “ok, this is AGI”, and here, given an example, I got a completely unusable artifact, despite direct instructions, structure and example! I got to say, given that privately this week, Anthropic disclosed that they have passed $65B in revenue, which is absolutely insane, this doesn't add up. So I figured, ok Alex, maybe this is your prompts or skills. But no, LDJ came in with some charts that show degradation, one from MarginLab.ai that shows significant lowering on number of tool calls and average runtime recently (this is for Opus 5) and And another chart from modelverify.ai model drift monitor showing drift scores.Do we have anoher Claude Gate on our hands? Is your Fable/Opus behaving weird lately? Or did you completely switched away to other models? OpenAI pausing RL and focusing on safetyLook, when we covered the HF hacking incident and then the pacing the frontier letter, I didn't imagine that results will come this fast, but this week, OpenAI publicly announced that they are pausing RL training, which is the last step of models, until they get their sandboxes in order and align the models better. We all agreed on stage that this is likely a very good move, and Peter was really awe-struck at the 20% dedication of resources towards reviewing thought processes of models. Is this a good enough response to the scary hacking incident? we'll see, but I think this is the right move from OpenAI, and still, waiting for the full postmortem on the OpenAI security incident. Open Source LLMsQwen3.8-27B ties GPT-5.6 Luna and runs on a 4090 (X, HF, Announcement)Following the release of their flagship, Alibaba dropped a model that became a community darling overnight, Qwen 3.8 with just 27B parameters. This “tiny” model scores 52 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, same score as GPT 5.6 Luna at Max reasoning and 51 on Agentic index, beating Opus 4.8 MaxAll while running at around 68t/s on a 4090 GPU, and around 40 on max via MLX, hell it even does 11t/s on Xenova's WebGPU kernels right in the browser! This model exploded on the HuggingFace hub, with tons of quants, over 152 fine-tunes, it was downloaded over 10M times overall
In this episode of The Brainstorm, Sam and Frank dig into the rumors of a multi-trillion-dollar Anthropic initial public offering (IPO). A company that started the year at $9 billion in run rate revenue may now be approaching $70 billion, adding more than a whole Salesforce in revenue in less than a year. The team walks through what a $2 trillion valuation would actually imply, why that multiple could land below public AI winners like Palantir and Cloudflare, and what the S1 might reveal about profitability. Then the conversation turns to the Pareto Frontier, where 14 of the 16 most cost-efficient models are proprietary, Google has none, and SpaceX AI has clawed its way back with Grok 4.6 and Grokbot.Key Points From This Episode:Why Anthropic's reported run rate makes a $2 trillion IPO look cheapWhat the S1 could reveal about profitability, and why the token subsidy bear case may not holdHow the Pareto Frontier reshuffles the model race, and why Google is currently off itTotal Addressable Market (TAM) refers to the total money or customers you could get if 100% of people buy your product or service.Venture Capital (VC) refers to a type of funding where investors give money to new or small businesses in exchange for a share of ownership.If you know ARK, you know we focus on long-term innovation.

Monterey Car Week 2026 - another wild ride. This week, we come live from Pebble Beach at the Hagerty House with a live studio audience!Jason and Derek dive into all the different happenings this year - and determine whether or not this year was better or worse than others previously.Jason brought his Rover SD1 to show, and his Volkswagen Cabrio VR6 swap to go - with appearances including but not limited to: Monterey British, Concours For A Cure, Little Car Show, Concours D'Lemons, Motorlux, Quail Motorsports Gathering, and Pebble Beach Concours. Jason and Derek discuss the good, bad, and the (beautifully) ugly - what's improved, worsened, and stayed the same.One thing is for sure - the broccoli heads in the G80 M3s are here to stay. But have THEY ruined everything for other attendees? Maybe not…Derek revisits various auction results from Broad Arrow, as well as Gooding and RM Sothebys. This episode was recorded before the $40M Ferrari Luce sale - however some other notable discussed results include the S123 Mercedes-Benz 280TE with a $252K sale, the $17M Ferrari SP3, and several others.Jason and Derek's favorite new unveiling was of course the Gordon Murray Special Vehicles (GMSV) S1 - which in many ways, is the rebirth of the road-going McLaren F1. The interest in the S1, the GMA T.33 and T.50, and manual Porsche GT cars has led to a trend of manufactures releasing new manual offerings - including the McLaren McL 6GT and Ferrari 12Cilindri Manuale. Could this trend continue to repeat? Only time (and money) will tell…All this and more, on this week's episode of The Carmudgeon Show. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Après son premier semestre de PASS à Rouen, Mahée est 7e sur 630. Puis son corps lâche : symptômes inexpliqués, errance médicale (« ça va passer, c'est rien »), arrêt total fin février. Elle obtient un redoublement pour raisons de santé — quasiment jamais accordé depuis la réforme — et revient l'année suivante, sans prépa, avec le tutorat gratuit. Classement final : 16e sur 630. Elle est aujourd'hui en 2e année de médecine.Sur le « 2 à 4 heures de travail par jour » : c'est son année de retour. Elle avait déjà validé son S1 (moyenne conservée), et sa santé ne permettait physiquement pas plus — certains jours, c'était 1 heure. Ce n'est pas un mode d'emploi pour une première PASS : sa première année, elle travaillait jusqu'à 12 heures par jour. C'est la preuve qu'avec une méthode ciblée (QCM en masse, méthode de la pile, apprentissages ciblés), un volume réduit peut suffire quand les fondations sont là.Hébergé par Ausha.

In July of 2018, 25-year-old Danniella Vian met up with friends in Mobile, Alabama, excited to celebrate buying her first car. Later that night, Danniella realized that she'd lost her cell phone. One of the friends she'd met that night returned to the previous bar to look for Danniella's phone, believing she was following him in her own car, but she never arrived. Ten months later, Danniella's car was found submerged in water by a boat launch in a residential area, more than 20 minutes away from where she was headed that night. Her remains were found inside her vehicle. Danniella's case remains open, but police have said publicly that they believe her death was a terrible accident. There are still many unanswered questions, strong suspicions, and inconsistencies surrounding Danniella's death. This is her story. If you have any information regarding the circumstances surrounding the disappearance or death of Danniella Vian, please contact the Mobile Police Department at 251-208-1861 or call Crime Stoppers at 251-208-7000 to remain anonymous.

If you're constantly busy but still feel like you're not making the progress you want, it may may be a sign that you need to sharpen your prioritisation skills.Effective prioritisation is a strategic leadership skill that creates space for better thinking, stronger decisions and greater impact by focusing on what matters most.This episode explores why leaders are rarely asked to do less and why becoming more senior often means balancing increasing demands with limited time, energy and resources. We discuss how operational work can keep leaders trapped on the hamster wheel and why intentionally creating time for strategic thinking is essential for long term success.We talk through two practical tools that have helped us to prioritise more effectively:The Eisenhower Matrix - helps separate urgent work from genuinely important work, encouraging you to spend more time on strategic activities before they become crises.The Impact Effort Matrix - a framework for identifying which activities are likely to deliver the greatest value and avoiding work that consumes effort without creating meaningful results.You can read more about these tools in Gemma's blog Key points discussedWhy prioritisation is a foundational strategic leadership skill, not simply a time management technique.How to move away from constant operational busyness and create more space for strategic thinking.Using the Eisenhower Matrix to distinguish between urgent and important work.Understanding how different thinking styles influence the way we approach important tasks.Applying the Impact Effort Matrix to prioritise projects, change initiatives and strategic decisions.Recognising opportunities to delegate, automate or redesign recurring tasks.Identifying work that delivers little value despite consuming significant effort.Asking "What are the things that only I can do?" to improve delegation and leadership focus.Key takeawayStrategic leadership is not about getting more done. It is about making better choices about where your time, energy and attention create the greatest value. Prioritisation is the tool that makes this possible.

In this month's episode, Sue, John and Paul welcome Professor & Chief of Service (Dermatology) at UC Davis, Stephen D White to the podcast. Chapter 1: Sheep Skin Detectives (03:09) Sue sets the scope: primary-care perspective rather than rare autoimmune disease. Stephen confirms autoimmune skin disease is vanishingly rare in sheep (pemphigus foliaceus essentially unreported, bar one Barbary sheep case in a zoo). (06:10) Sue asks whether clinical distribution helps localise the cause in a pruritic sheep the way it does in a dog or cat. Stephen explains it's less reliable — thick wool can mask hair loss even with significant pruritus, though rubbing behaviour is usually evident. Lice are visible with a hand lens; mites are not. (08:07) Question on empirical response to treatment. Stephen notes lice usually respond well to licensed ectoparasiticides (mainly avermectins); isoxazolines are unlicensed in ruminants and unreported in sheep specifically (though used in camelids, and anecdotally a bighorn sheep). Repeat treatment at 2–4 weeks is usually needed to catch hatching eggs. Chapter 2: Suspect Number 1 - Ectoparasites (11:30) John asks for top differentials in a pruritic sheep, Stephen answers: “ectoparasites, ectoparasites, and ectoparasites” — mites, lice and sheep keds (which are insects, not mites). He stresses checking in-contact sheep, since one animal may be subclinical while another is severely affected. (13:49) Sue asks why would a referral centre see an ectoparasite case at all? Stephen: usually a failed or incomplete owner-applied treatment, or a backyard sheep simply not monitored closely enough for early signs. (15:29) On technique: always scrape if pruritic, using a medical-grade spatula rather than a blade (sheep are skittish; a slip with a blade causes injury). An otoscope with the cone removed doubles as a magnifier and light source. Dermatophytosis should also be considered — often presenting as facial alopecia rather than fleece loss — and can coexist with ectoparasitism. (15:09) John ask about photosensitisation. Stephen distinguishes hepatogenous causes (impaired phylloerythrin metabolism from hepatotoxic plants, or a genetic defect in Corriedale lambs) from primary photodynamic plant ingestion (e.g. St John's Wort). Lesions favour the head and distal limbs. Flock-wide cases point to an environmental cause (send hay/pasture samples to the local extension lab); idiosyncratic reactions (as seen with clover in horses) may occur but are poorly documented in ruminants. Chapter 3: Dermatological Movie Stars (26:48) John introduces orf, referencing its cameo in Sheep Detectives. Stephen describes it as a parapoxvirus infection, usually self-limiting, but causing anorexia through oral pain — a problem in production settings. A non-resolving “super orf” form causes severe weight loss. Stephen shares data from the retrospective study: of ten orf-affected sheep, five were euthanised, due to generalised cutaneous lesions or concurrent Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis abscesses — evidence that orf can significantly compromise immune function. One case of orf-associated facial alopecia resolved fully once the virus cleared. (31:07) On zoonotic risk and management: gloves are essential when handling any crusting lesion in sheep or goats. Management includes moistening hay to ease painful feeding, antibiotics for secondary bacterial infection, and parenteral treatment or stomach tubing in severe anorexia. (33:17) Sue asks about bacterial skin disease. Stephen identifies C. pseudotuberculosis and staphylococcal abscesses as the main presentations — often large, anywhere on the body, commonly peri udder in females. Internal abscessation (lungs, liver) is a key concern; aspirated purulent masses warrant involving a large-animal colleague, with caution against environmental contamination during drainage. Dermatophilosis is discussed as globally widespread and rain-associated, presenting dorsally, or interdigitally as “strawberry footrot.” Stephen references a 2008 paper (Norris) linking resistance to greasy, high-wax, low-pH, fine-fibre wool with higher suint content — traits that reduce moisture retention. (41:10) Wrap-up: Stephen credits the study's primary author, a veterinary student, and flags Aidan Foster's JAVMA review of skin disease in alpacas, goats, pigs and sheep as further reading (both for show notes). (42:00) Sue closes with a reflection that sheep dermatology follows the same diagnostic logic as small animal practice — FNA, impression smears, skin scrapes, hair plucks — and should feel less daunting to primary-care vets than expected. Silly question to end: what's the most ridiculous thing you've done purely because everyone else was doing it? References mentioned (from Sue's closing remarks) Lauth et al. (2025) – Skin disease in sheep (Ovis aries): a retrospective report of 299 cases at a university veterinary medical teaching hospital (1986–2020). Veterinary Dermatology.

So here's the thing. I know I talk a lot about reading. It's pretty important to me. But all week I've been trying to prepare a different podcast, one NOT about the uncrackable justification for choice reading. But recently I heard from several teachers over in CHSE about thriving reading programs they had going, only to get shut down by folks who felt like reading in class was a waste of time. And then I kind of ended up in a rabbit hole, as I am wont to do. It's like researching the justification for choice reading became my guilty pleasure, sucking up all my time. I listened to audiobooks on my walks, pored over research roundups and articles at the coffee shop, hit up the hammock with my Penny Kittle, and stared and stared and stared at the growing evidence mounting in my endless Google doc of notes. The evidence is clear. The need for help for kids who don't read, don't like reading, and don't want to read is great. And yet STILL we are prioritizing reading snippets and drilling for tests to "improve" our readers' reading. I want you to have the information you need to fight. So here I am. Again. Despite my efforts to focus on something else this week. Let's dig deep.

Melanie Love makes tools so pain relief doesn't have to hurt.Love is the founder of unwind body works. Out of necessity, she created the (un)Block™, a stable, no-roll alternative to foam rollers and massage balls. And developed the unwind body works method, which uses four at a time to balance the body left to right, top to bottom, protecting the spine while giving Type A multi-tasking efficiency.The necessity? Nerve damage in her low back from Bertolotti Syndrome, an unfused S1 vertebrae, combined with hypermobility. She went from walking 18 holes of golf to crawling out of bed in pain in under 6 months. She built the tool she needed but couldn't find.Unwind integrates neurobiology for a fresh, self-directed, cringe-free approach to tight, sore muscles that works for practitioners and their patients. Better mobility work at home makes for better stability work at the clinic. Unwind offers (un)Blocks, group and 1:1 sessions, practitioner PD training, and at-home video content.Love writes about trauma recovery on her Substack, which is how she learned about the nervous system and how much more it influences than most people realize, including pain relief.Learn more at unwindbody.works or reach out on socials at @innatelymelanie

My Fair Brady, S1, E8This week, Princess is having super secondhand embarrassment from all the begging going down in Puerto Rico.
Right, everyone quit Oo-moxing for two minutes because we've got another episode talking about those hyper-capitalist scamps, the Ferengi; literally one of the few times here on the show where we can say without doubt that it's a metaphor for capitalism!Our brave casual explorers watch three Ferengi-based episodes of Star Trek without any Quark-based antics, first up is probably TNG's most successful attempt to try and sell these guys as the Big Bad as Captain Picard is forced to face his past as a revenge attempt leads him to relieve ‘The Battle,' after that, Trip gets to do a Home Alone/Die Hard as the worst trio of Ferengi try to pull an ‘Acquisition' on the Enterprise NX-01 and finally, the Lower Decks get to see what Ferengi TV and Miles' AO3 account is like as ‘Parth Ferenghi's Heartplace' makes us ask… do Rutherford and Tendii like each other… in a sexy way? Please send us two strips of Gold-Pressed Latinum for reading the show notes. Wait, you wanted to know the price up-front? THIS IS WHY YOU READ THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, GUYS!!!Episodes discussed: THE BATTLE (12:09) ACQUISITION (41:31) PARTH FERENGI'S HEARTPLACE (01:11:36)TALKING POINTS INCLUDE: Bioshock, Saturday Night Live UK, US Advert Breaks are the devil, the Ferengi did just as well as being the Next Klingons as the Voord did as being the next Daleks, it must be a World Cup year because Miles makes a football joke, TNG Season 1 has a naff charm, some great prop-acting from Patrick Stewart, its no surprise why Denise Crosby quit, Miles also wants to wear the Wesley-sweater and the male miniskirt from S1, Miles should not travel back in time to meet his 14 year old self, one day, we will cover the episode where Wesley Crusher nearly pulls. Why DO British people find the name ‘Jeff' funny? Ethan Phillips clearly relishes playing Evil Season One Neelix, we're right back to the TNG Season One idiot Farenghi, is this meant to be a comedy? Miles and Charlie discuss their Home Alone-style traps and just how badly they'd go, for an episode with a Darkplace homage title, there are very few Garth Marenghi's Darkplace references, Miles misses binging television, Lower Decks shipping, even the best writers have done naff work, Mariner's depressingly relatable character development backslide and what Ferengi TV show would Charlie get addicted to?[Charlie's note, Miles kept spelling Ferengi wrong in this recap, as he's just that casual, but I've changed it for your sanity and my own]

Start your free trial at https://account.trainheroic.com/create-accountWhat we get into:Coach pay comes first. The DOD is on track to become the largest employer of strength and conditioning professionals in the world, which means contracting companies will be too. The contracting model is a race to the bottom on price, with staff salaries absorbing the cuts. That has to change.The five pillars get a rebrand — move, eat, think, recover, connect. Why dropping a dedicated spiritual pillar doesn't mean spirituality doesn't matter — it just means it's woven into everything else.Branding and marketing are undervalued. Embedded human performance has to compete for attention in a way that S1 never does. Drew's pitch: hand the whole thing to an ad agency and see what happens.The personal services contract problem, explained plainly. Coaches meet every FAR criterion for personal services but get treated as non-personal services. Cleaning this up would mean better pay, better working conditions, and actually being able to choose who you hire.GS billets for lead coaches — at minimum the lead strength coach and athletic trainer should be government employees with real career progression, same pay grade as the PT and dietitian.The coach-NCO relationship. Coaches exist to transport people from A to B — that's literally where the word comes from: a 15th century Hungarian horse-drawn carriage. Some coaches are getting fired for leading PT sessions. That's insane.Extender courses are teaching the wrong things. Periodization and physiology when people actually need interpersonal skills and session flow management.Data — stop making it the mission. Just watch what happens to the numbers that justified these programs in the first place.Wearables — a closet full of devices, service members pick what they like, a small subset of data flows to the HP team for trend monitoring and outlier detection, nobody touches a custom military interface.Policy — the Randolph Sheppard Act of 1936 and military dining, credentialing through MTFs vs operational leadership, and why language in DODI 1308.03 may have killed the original ACFT.Mentioned in this episode:Ben Bergeron — move, eat, think, recover, connect frameworkKat Oswald — recent podcast guest, helped implement the five factors at Alex's day jobRachel Chamberlain — community-based blueprinting, podcast appearance incomingDODI 1308.3 — DOD physical fitness and body composition program instructionRandolph Shepherd Act, 1936 — federal law governing vending and dining on government propertyLong and Strong — the Mops and Moes training program on TrainHeroic Views expressed are those of the speakers and do not represent any official organization.
Many women are prescribed oral estrogen without ever being told what happens after it enters the body. In this episode, Dr. Brendan McCarthy takes a deeper look at estrone, the estrogen metabolite created when estradiol is taken orally, and explains why the delivery method of hormone therapy matters. You'll learn: The difference between estradiol and estrone Why oral estrogen creates significantly higher estrone levels How estrone may contribute to inflammation and insulin resistance The connection between estrogen metabolism and weight gain during perimenopause and menopause Why monitoring labs is essential when using hormone therapy The importance of understanding risks, benefits, and treatment options before starting hormones Dr. McCarthy also discusses the role of inflammation, body fat, metabolic health, and hormone delivery systems in creating long-term outcomes for women navigating menopause. This episode is about education, informed consent, and helping women better understand the science behind their care.

IPO season is heating up and AJ and Shane West are back after a whirlwind few weeks that included a company retreat upstate, a client event in Williamsburg, the launch of Gemifi at FPA NorCal in San Francisco, and a pod of orcas off the coast of Seattle. In Episode 190 of The Liquidity Event, they dig into Carta's proposal to allow employees to contribute vested equity directly into a 401k or IRA, and whether it actually helps everyday startup employees or just adds another tax break for the wealthy. They also break down Oura Ring's confidential IPO filing, why wearable health tech is having a moment, and whether the growth story holds up once everyone who wants one already has one. Then it's on to Fidelity's Q1 2026 retirement analysis, which shows record high contributions to retirement accounts while the K-shaped economy quietly widens. Robinhood's new AI trading tool gets the full treatment, including whether letting a bot make credit card purchases is innovation or a liability waiting to happen. And AJ has thoughts on Phoebe Gates closing a $35.5 million oversubscribed Series A while calling herself a scrappy startup. Topics covered: Carta's proposal to put vested equity into 401k and IRA accounts Oura Ring confidential IPO filing and the wearable health tech wave SpaceX IPO lockup period and what it means for employees with equity Anthropic confidential S1 and the 2026 IPO pipeline Fidelity Q1 2026 retirement analysis and record high 401k contributions Robinhood AI trading tool and using natural language to invest Phoebe Gates, nepo babies and a $35.5 million Series A Timestamps: 00:52 Shane West, the Mexico World Cup and two weeks of nonstop travel 02:52 Company retreat upstate, client events and the launch of Gemifi in San Francisco 05:16 Carta's proposal to contribute vested equity directly into a 401k or IRA 09:03 The steel man case for Carta's proposal and who it actually helps 11:54 Oura Ring files confidentially for IPO and the wearable health tech wave 15:38 Fidelity Q1 2026 retirement analysis and record high 401k contributions 18:43 43% of stock plan participants became first-time investors through equity comp 19:00 Robinhood lets customers use AI to trade stocks and make credit card purchases 23:26 SpaceX IPO lockup period, Anthropic S1 and the 2026 IPO pipeline 24:36 Phoebe Gates raises a $35.5 million Series A and says she is not a nepo baby

El episodio 117 llegó con números que no se pueden creer y drama en las grandes ligas del tech. Leopold Aschenbrenner tiene 24 años, convirtió 250 millones en 5.5 billones en un solo año apostando a la infraestructura de AI. Ahora hizo el giro que nadie esperaba: apostó contra Nvidia, Oracle y TSMC con puts masivos. Su mensaje es claro — el mercado está a punto de explotar. SpaceX presentó su S1. Musk se declaró CEO de por vida con el 85% de los votos y solo pone el 5% de la compañía en el mercado. El IPO más esperado de la historia se viene en junio. Anthropic está cerca de los 50 billones de revenue este quarter, camino a ser rentable, y acaba de reclutar a un co-founder clave de OpenAI. Mientras tanto, la CFO de OpenAI se niega a falsificar los números para su propio IPO. Y de yapa: Peter Thiel jugando ajedrez en un club de barrio de Buenos Aires y la bomba legal de Anthropic contra los SPVs de secundarios que tiene a medio mercado en pánico. __Links del episodio:Peter Thiel:https://x.com/somoscorta/status/2056064226033127752?s=20https://x.com/lex_node/status/2053845294731641076?s=20The price of time: www.goodreads.com/book/show/61241469-the-price-of-time__Tenes alguna pregunta?

What if loneliness isn't just an emotion… but one of the most dangerous biological threats to your health? In this deeply personal and scientifically explosive solo episode, Darin opens up about something he recently realized in his own life: despite being surrounded by people, he was lonely. But what began as an emotional realization quickly became a deep dive into some of the most shocking research he's ever uncovered, showing that chronic loneliness may increase the risk of heart disease, dementia, cancer, autoimmune dysfunction, accelerated aging, and early death. From inflammatory gene expression and cortisol dysregulation to oxytocin, vulnerability, and the collapse of real human connection in the digital age, this episode reveals why loneliness may be the most overlooked "fatal convenience" of modern life, and how vulnerability may be the medicine. What You'll Learn Why loneliness is a biological crisis, not just an emotional feeling The shocking link between loneliness and heart disease, dementia, and early death Why the quality of your relationships is the #1 predictor of long-term health How loneliness activates inflammatory genes inside your body The role of cortisol, sleep disruption, and chronic stress in social isolation Why social media and "surface-level connection" are replacing real intimacy The connection between loneliness and Alzheimer's disease How oxytocin and genuine connection reduce inflammation Why vulnerability is the gateway to meaningful relationships Practical ways to create deeper connection starting today Chapters 00:00:33 – Sponsor: the truth about the exploding NAD supplement market 00:01:04 – Why supplement verification and transparency matter 00:02:17 – Opening: Darin admits something deeply personal 00:02:30 – "I realized recently… I'm lonely" 00:02:37 – The difference between being surrounded by people vs being truly known 00:03:06 – Loneliness as a biological experience, not just an emotional one 00:03:27 – The hidden risks: heart disease, dementia, cancer, early death 00:03:45 – Why this is not fringe science 00:04:13 – The most important predictor of long-term health 00:04:34 – Why relationship QUALITY matters more than quantity 00:05:06 – The global loneliness epidemic 00:05:11 – U.S. Surgeon General advisory on loneliness 00:05:39 – Loneliness declared a public health crisis 00:06:02 – 50% of Americans report measurable loneliness 00:06:22 – "A generational collapse of connection" 00:06:30 – 29% of adults have no close friends 00:06:40 – Face-to-face interactions dramatically declining 00:07:01 – The UK, Japan, and Australia loneliness crisis initiatives 00:07:32 – The paradox: hyperconnected but deeply isolated 00:08:04 – Loneliness as a biological alarm signal 00:08:31 – What loneliness actually looks like in modern life 00:08:42 – The lonely CEO, the unseen mother, the isolated social media addict 00:09:31 – "Perceived social isolation" and why the brain can't tell the difference 00:10:21 – Meta-analysis of 3.4 million people 00:10:55 – Loneliness vs obesity and smoking risk comparisons 00:11:18 – The biology of loneliness begins 00:11:50 – NF-kB: inflammatory gene activation explained 00:12:33 – How loneliness changes gene expression 00:13:02 – Chronic inflammation and disease pathways 00:13:21 – Cortisol, sleep disruption, and immune dysfunction 00:14:00 – How loneliness affects brain repair and amyloid plaque clearing 00:14:21 – Sponsor: Fatty15 and cellular health 00:18:02 – The Alzheimer's and dementia connection 00:18:25 – Loneliness as a major modifiable dementia risk factor 00:18:57 – Cortisol, neuroinflammation, and brain degeneration 00:19:16 – The hippocampus physically shrinking in lonely people 00:19:27 – Social media as a "fatal convenience" 00:19:57 – The oxytocin economy: connection as medicine 00:20:15 – Oxytocin as one of the body's strongest anti-inflammatory molecules 00:20:30 – HeartMath research: emotional synchronization between people 00:20:48 – "You regulate each other's biology" 00:21:07 – The real barrier: vulnerability 00:21:32 – Darin's recent experiences with radical vulnerability 00:21:54 – Conversations with family, ex-partners, and loved ones 00:22:35 – Brené Brown's research on connection and worthiness 00:23:14 – The "depth audit" exercise 00:23:42 – Reaching out, expressing appreciation, and owning your emotions 00:24:01 – Sacred hours: spending time without phones 00:24:13 – Questions that create real intimacy 00:24:30 – Darin's emotional conversation with his brother 00:25:03 – Protecting yourself from social media disconnection 00:25:20 – Becoming a source of joy and connection in everyday life 00:25:25 – Darin reflects on seven years of subtle loneliness 00:25:48 – The shift from surface conversations to meaningful connection 00:26:01 – "If you want love, give love" 00:26:19 – Final message: generate the connection you want to receive 00:26:22 – Closing thoughts and outro Thank You to Our Sponsors Truniagen: Go to www.truniagen.com and use code DARIN20 at checkout for 20% off Fatty15: Get an additional 15% off their 90-day subscription Starter Kit by going to fatty15.com/DARIN and using code DARIN at checkout.

It isn't failure. It's a biological signal telling you that something essential is missing. And in a world addicted to surface-level connection, the real medicine may simply be this: vulnerability, presence, eye contact, honesty, and the courage to let yourself truly be seen."
