Apple wants parents to celebrate its latest parental control updates. But child safety advocates aren't buying the hype.In this episode, I brought in Titania Jordan of Bark Technologies and Chris McKenna of Protect Young Eyes to separate PR from reality. They discuss why Apple's changes arrived only after mounting lawsuits and legislative pressure, what the company still isn't doing to protect children, and why many of the announced features amount to little more than shifting responsibility back onto parents.If Apple truly prioritizes child safety, why can children still receive explicit content, easily workaround parental controls and use a device designed primarily for adults?Before you trust the headlines, listen to what the experts have to say.Safer options for your child: Get the Bark Phone! Monitor your child's iPhone with the Bark App.Get the Bark Watch!

In this episode of Why Care?, Nadia Nagamootoo is joined by writer, broadcaster and campaigner Jamie Klingler for a conversation about accidental activism, women's safety, police reform and the institutional failures that still leave women carrying the burden of risk. Jamie reflects on the moment Sarah Everard's murder pushed her from behind-the-scenes media work into national campaigning, how Reclaim These Streets was formed at breakneck speed, and why the vigil and High Court fight became a turning point in the public conversation on violence against women and girls.From there, the conversation widens into what has changed, what has not, and what leaders still fail to understand. Jamie speaks candidly about consent, male entitlement, the emotional toll of becoming a public voice on women's safety, and why organisations cannot keep treating violence, harassment and misogyny as if they sit outside the workplace. The result is a powerful episode about courage, accountability and what it really takes to change culture rather than simply comment on it.Key TakeawaysThe public conversation on violence against women has moved, but institutions still lag behind.Consent education needs to go far beyond teaching girls how to say no.Men who want to help often need practical, behaviour-based guidance rather than abstract reassurance that they are “one of the good ones”.Organisations already know where the risks are. The issue is usually not awareness but whether leaders are willing to act early and decisively. Guest BioJamie Klingler became an activist and campaigner for women's safety and police reform as one of the founders of Reclaim These Streets, an organisation that was created after Sarah Everard, was abducted, raped and murdered by a serving police officer. The organisation tried to hold a vigil for Sarah, but the Metropolitan Police said they weren't allowed. In doing so and trying to silence them; Reclaim These Streets fought them in the High Court for violating their human right to assemble, and won. Jamie speaks on becoming an accidental activist and using her media and events expertise to create a real impact. Her TEDx talk on How to Reclaim Your Life is here: https://www.ted.com/talks/jamie_klingler_reclaim_yourself_the_most_valuable_investment_you_ll_makeLinks Jamie: ⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠ Nadia Nagamootoo:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠ |⁠⁠⁠ Instagram⁠⁠⁠ | Buy ⁠⁠⁠Beyond Discomfort⁠⁠⁠Avenir Consulting: ⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/avenirconsultingservices⁠⁠⁠Produced by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Mauro Kenji Serra⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Kenji Productions⁠⁠⁠⁠

You probably have a bottle of weed killer sitting in your garage right now. But do you actually know what's inside it? After years of controversy surrounding glyphosate, many manufacturers replaced it with new "glyphosate-free" formulas. The promise sounds great. But when I looked closer at the labels, I found something surprising. Some of these new products contain three or four active ingredients, including fast-acting contact herbicides, systemic grass killers, broadleaf herbicides, and even long-lasting soil residual chemistry. Today we're getting nerdy. We'll break down what these ingredients actually do, compare them to traditional glyphosate, and talk about the difference between a product being dangerous versus the actual risk of using it.

What really happens behind the scenes in yacht crew recruitment?In this episode of Superyacht Laundry, host Cherise Reedman is joined by Sophie Barber, founder of Vela Recruitment, for an honest and practical conversation about how superyacht recruitment has changed, why references remain complicated, and why the right placement still depends on far more than a strong CV.Sophie shares her journey from working onboard yachts to building a career in superyacht recruitment, including her early days in Antibes, her time at Bluewater, and the experience that led her to launch Vela Recruitment. The conversation looks at the changing recruitment landscape, why junior and senior crew roles now require different approaches, and why HOD placements demand deeper understanding, stronger vetting, and a real sense of personality fit.Cherise and Sophie also discuss some of the harder issues facing the industry, including vague references, known bad actors, reputation risk, female crew safety, onboard relationships, fake CVs, fake yacht jobs, and the increasing role of AI in recruitment.At the centre of the conversation is one clear point: yacht recruitment is still a relationship business. Technology can help with validation, systems, and speed, but it cannot replace trust, integrity, instinct, accountability, and the human judgement needed to place the right person on the right yacht.In This Conversation: Sophie Barber's move from yacht crew into recruitment Why she founded Vela Recruitment How yacht crew recruitment has changed Why junior roles and senior HOD roles need different hiring approaches The challenge of vague or dishonest references Why recruiters need to read between the lines Fake CVs, fake jobs, and red flags for crew Crew safety, female protection, and industry accountability The role AI may play in recruitment Why human judgement still matters in yacht hiring Guest:Sophie BarberFounder, Vela RecruitmentHost:Cherise ReedmanSuperyacht LaundryPrefer to read?

This episode is all about that feeling and why it can become so emotionally powerful. We're digging into the connection between food control and everything happening underneath the surface that often has nothing to do with food at all. Anxiety. Uncertainty. Stress. Feeling emotionally stuck. Feeling like there are things you can't say, can't ask for, or can't fully admit to yourself. Sometimes controlling food becomes the place all of that energy goes because it feels concrete, manageable, and safe. Quotes "Control is more of a solution than it is a problem. It's not a character flaw. It is a coping mechanism." "When we have something to improve, to manage, to optimize, whatever it is, it creates a sense of moving forward. And it's not about being vain. It's about feeling like I'm actually doing something when otherwise I do not have that feeling." "When we treat a symptom as a problem or the control as a problem, then we kind of miss the point. The food control is holding everything together, or at least something together." "If it's the structure that's keeping everything from falling apart, then asking us to drop it without addressing what's carrying it kind of feels destabilizing because it is destabilizing." "The goal isn't to take away the control, it's to understand what it's doing. And eventually, to build other ways of feeling safe." "In a situation where it feels like you can't want something, you can't ask for something, you can't say it, there's always wiggle room to try to figure out how you can sort of move the needle ever so slightly, assert yourself ever so slightly, even if it isn't the bigger picture and not actually resolving things." Frequently Asked Questions Why do I feel more in control when I'm dieting or eating "clean"? For a lot of people, food rules create a sense of structure and relief when life feels emotionally messy, uncertain, or overwhelming. Controlling food can temporarily calm anxiety because it feels concrete and manageable.   Is controlling food a sign of an eating disorder? Not always, but rigid food control can become part of disordered eating patterns. Many people use food behaviors to cope with stress, anxiety, helplessness, or emotions they don't fully know how to process.   Why is it so hard to "just let go" of food control? Because food control is usually serving a purpose emotionally. If it's helping you feel safe, grounded, or organized internally, simply removing the behavior without addressing what's underneath can feel destabilizing.   Can stress and anxiety make food rules worse? Yes. Stress, uncertainty, transitions, relationship issues, work pressure, and emotional overwhelm often increase the need for control around food. Many people notice their food rules tighten during difficult or unpredictable periods.   Why do I obsess over food when other parts of my life feel chaotic? Food can become a way to redirect emotional energy. When situations feel too complicated, emotionally unsafe, or impossible to solve, focusing on food can create a temporary feeling of order and relief.   Can you have disordered eating even if your life looks "fine"? Absolutely. Disordered eating isn't only linked to major trauma or obvious crises. Sometimes subtle stress, internal pressure, transitions, perfectionism, or difficulty expressing emotions can fuel the need for control around food.

Today, I'm talking with Slydio CEO Adam Bry, who runs the leading US maker of autonomous drones. We covered a lot in this conversation, including Skydio's police and government work at a time when military use of AI is more controversial than ever and competing with Chinese drones against the backdrop of the Trump's administration's DJI ban. There's a lot in this one – maybe more than anything, it was refreshing to hear Adam talk about using AI to bring even more people to work at Skydio as the company expands. I also got to fly a drone, which ruled.

Send us Fan MailIn this week's episode 356 of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast, I'm exploring a core insight that sits underneath so much of my work: you cannot create internal safety by focusing externally.Many people spend enormous amounts of energy trying to feel safe by managing other people's perceptions, reactions, emotions, and approval. But no matter how hard we try, external circumstances can never reliably provide the sense of security we're actually seeking. This episode looks at what happens when we stop trying to create safety through people-pleasing, image management, and controlling outcomes, and start building it from within.Some of the talking points I go over in this episode include:Why people-pleasing is often an unconscious safety strategy rather than simply “being nice”How seeking approval, avoiding disappointment, and managing other people's reactions disconnects us from ourselvesThe connection between boundaries and internal safetyWhy healthy social boundaries require allowing other people to have their own emotional experiencesHow to stay connected to yourself while remaining connected to othersI also share how many people come to me wanting better relationships, only to discover that the deeper work is learning how to stop abandoning themselves and creating a sense of safety that is no longer dependent on external validation.This episode is a reminder that the goal of boundaries is not distance from other people. The goal is closeness without self-abandonment. Because when you stop trying to create safety by managing everybody else, you finally have the energy to create safety where it actually matters—inside yourself.Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips on living a more whole life and to hear even more about the points outlined above.Thank you for listening!

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Melanye “Dr. Mac.” Maclin joins Rushion McDonald to discuss the serious health risks associated with hair relaxers, permanent dyes, and synthetic braids—particularly among Black women. Drawing from over 25 years of research and patient experience, she explains how chemicals used in these products absorb through the scalp, disrupt hormones, and significantly increase the risks of breast cancer, ovarian cancer, uterine cancer, early puberty, fibroids, and infertility. The conversation also highlights systemic resistance from the beauty industry, government agencies, and even consumers themselves—primarily due to financial incentives and lack of awareness. Dr. Mac advocates for safer hair practices, increased education, and protective measures to reduce exposure. She also discusses her pioneering internal hair‑health supplements, Bella Nutri, for women (2004) and men (2008), and how she helped introduce the U.S. market to nutritional hair support long before it was mainstream. Purpose of the Interview The purpose of the interview is to: 1. Educate listeners about the hidden health dangers …of chemical hair treatments including relaxers, permanent dyes, and synthetic hair containing benzene. 2. Advocate for informed hair‑care decisions Dr. Mac wants women—especially Black women—to understand how beauty practices impact long‑term health. 3. Encourage the beauty industry to adopt safety protocols Such as scalp protection, warning labels, and honest communication about risks. 4. Highlight Dr. Mac’s work and products Including her Bella Nutri supplements and educational platforms (Ask Dr. Mac). 5. Empower parents to protect children By avoiding chemical treatments on young girls whose bodies are especially vulnerable. Key Takeaways 1. Chemical relaxers and permanent hair dyes are strongly linked to increased cancer risks. Permanent dyes raise the risk of breast, uterine, and ovarian cancer. Black women exhibit a 45% increased risk of breast cancer when using permanent dyes. Combining dyes with relaxers significantly compounds the danger. 2. The danger comes from chemical absorption into the scalp. Relaxer chemicals include sodium, calcium, guanine, and lithium hydroxide. These chemicals burn through the scalp, entering the bloodstream and disrupting hormones, leading to early puberty, fibroids, infertility, and cancer. 3. Synthetic braiding hair contains benzene—a carcinogen. Benzene exposure affects both the stylist and the client. Risks include lung cancer and leukemia. 4. The beauty industry resists change because of profit. Salons rarely display warnings because “it affects business.” The relaxer–damage→hair‑loss→extensions cycle creates a lucrative revenue loop. 5. Children are especially vulnerable to chemical exposure. Relaxers on children under 10 can cause: early puberty fibroids infertility early hysterectomies increased cancer risk Dr. Mac advises never relaxing a child’s hair, but if done, the product must stay on no more than 5–10 minutes with complete scalp protection. 6. Scalp protection is essential for anyone still using relaxers. Use petroleum jelly over the entire scalp, not just the hairline. This reduces chemical absorption during both application and rinsing. 7. Dr. Mac pioneered the U.S. hair‑supplement industry. Developed Bella Nutri after research with a Finnish company (Scalp). Initially dismissed as a “witch doctor,” but now the hair‑supplement market is mainstream. 8. She refuses to participate in relaxer‑related lawsuits. Because she has warned people for 20+ years, she cannot ethically testify for those who ignored repeated warnings. Notable Quotes On the impact of chemicals: “The chemicals burn through the scalp… getting into the main bloodstream and causing hormone disruption.” On the increased cancer risk: “African‑Americans have a more than 45% increased risk when we use permanent hair dyes.” On synthetic braids: “As long as that synthetic hair is on her head, she is breathing in benzene.” On industry pushback: “People are about the green‑eyed devil called money.” On relaxing children’s hair: “Hopefully a mother doesn’t take her child to get a relaxer.” “Hair chemicals can lead to early puberty, fibroids, infertility, even hysterectomies before age 40.” On the vicious cycle of damage and profit: “It’s a 360‑degree money‑making cycle.” On caring more than her patients: “I feel like I’m caring more about someone’s health than they are caring about their own.” On pioneering supplements: “Hair and skin are internal organs—they manifest externally.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Melanye “Dr. Mac.” Maclin joins Rushion McDonald to discuss the serious health risks associated with hair relaxers, permanent dyes, and synthetic braids—particularly among Black women. Drawing from over 25 years of research and patient experience, she explains how chemicals used in these products absorb through the scalp, disrupt hormones, and significantly increase the risks of breast cancer, ovarian cancer, uterine cancer, early puberty, fibroids, and infertility. The conversation also highlights systemic resistance from the beauty industry, government agencies, and even consumers themselves—primarily due to financial incentives and lack of awareness. Dr. Mac advocates for safer hair practices, increased education, and protective measures to reduce exposure. She also discusses her pioneering internal hair‑health supplements, Bella Nutri, for women (2004) and men (2008), and how she helped introduce the U.S. market to nutritional hair support long before it was mainstream. Purpose of the Interview The purpose of the interview is to: 1. Educate listeners about the hidden health dangers …of chemical hair treatments including relaxers, permanent dyes, and synthetic hair containing benzene. 2. Advocate for informed hair‑care decisions Dr. Mac wants women—especially Black women—to understand how beauty practices impact long‑term health. 3. Encourage the beauty industry to adopt safety protocols Such as scalp protection, warning labels, and honest communication about risks. 4. Highlight Dr. Mac’s work and products Including her Bella Nutri supplements and educational platforms (Ask Dr. Mac). 5. Empower parents to protect children By avoiding chemical treatments on young girls whose bodies are especially vulnerable. Key Takeaways 1. Chemical relaxers and permanent hair dyes are strongly linked to increased cancer risks. Permanent dyes raise the risk of breast, uterine, and ovarian cancer. Black women exhibit a 45% increased risk of breast cancer when using permanent dyes. Combining dyes with relaxers significantly compounds the danger. 2. The danger comes from chemical absorption into the scalp. Relaxer chemicals include sodium, calcium, guanine, and lithium hydroxide. These chemicals burn through the scalp, entering the bloodstream and disrupting hormones, leading to early puberty, fibroids, infertility, and cancer. 3. Synthetic braiding hair contains benzene—a carcinogen. Benzene exposure affects both the stylist and the client. Risks include lung cancer and leukemia. 4. The beauty industry resists change because of profit. Salons rarely display warnings because “it affects business.” The relaxer–damage→hair‑loss→extensions cycle creates a lucrative revenue loop. 5. Children are especially vulnerable to chemical exposure. Relaxers on children under 10 can cause: early puberty fibroids infertility early hysterectomies increased cancer risk Dr. Mac advises never relaxing a child’s hair, but if done, the product must stay on no more than 5–10 minutes with complete scalp protection. 6. Scalp protection is essential for anyone still using relaxers. Use petroleum jelly over the entire scalp, not just the hairline. This reduces chemical absorption during both application and rinsing. 7. Dr. Mac pioneered the U.S. hair‑supplement industry. Developed Bella Nutri after research with a Finnish company (Scalp). Initially dismissed as a “witch doctor,” but now the hair‑supplement market is mainstream. 8. She refuses to participate in relaxer‑related lawsuits. Because she has warned people for 20+ years, she cannot ethically testify for those who ignored repeated warnings. Notable Quotes On the impact of chemicals: “The chemicals burn through the scalp… getting into the main bloodstream and causing hormone disruption.” On the increased cancer risk: “African‑Americans have a more than 45% increased risk when we use permanent hair dyes.” On synthetic braids: “As long as that synthetic hair is on her head, she is breathing in benzene.” On industry pushback: “People are about the green‑eyed devil called money.” On relaxing children’s hair: “Hopefully a mother doesn’t take her child to get a relaxer.” “Hair chemicals can lead to early puberty, fibroids, infertility, even hysterectomies before age 40.” On the vicious cycle of damage and profit: “It’s a 360‑degree money‑making cycle.” On caring more than her patients: “I feel like I’m caring more about someone’s health than they are caring about their own.” On pioneering supplements: “Hair and skin are internal organs—they manifest externally.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSteve Harvey Morning Show Online: http://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

One of Eric and Kouri Richins' sons remembers the night his father died. He was put to bed early without a bath — unusual for the family. When he tried to go into his parents' bedroom, his mother yelled at him to go away. He later told investigators that Kouri didn't sleep in his room that night, contradicting what she told police. A child, catching the seams in his mother's story on the night he lost his father.At sentencing, all three boys said they would be afraid if Kouri were ever released. One son, now thirteen, said he feared she would come after him and his brothers. Another said he feels hateful and ashamed when people talk about his mother because she took away his dad. The youngest said that once she's gone, he will feel happy, safer, relaxed, and trust people more. And then one of them said the sentence that reframes this entire case: “I miss my dad, but I do not miss how my life used to be. I don't miss Kouri.”Eric Richins stayed in that house to protect his boys. He told his sister he would endure hell every day rather than risk a custody arrangement that gave Kouri unsupervised access. He believed his presence was the safety net. And his children's own words tell you what the environment actually felt like while he was fighting to hold it together. They feel safer now — with their father gone and their mother behind bars — than they did when both parents were in the house.This episode examines the psychology of how danger becomes normal inside a home, how a man who saw the threat clearly decided staying was safer than leaving, how the people around him processed something outside every framework they had, and what the children's statements reveal about the world Eric tried to manage from the inside.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Burn Fat While You Sleep, Boost Metabolism & Fast the Smart Way with guest expert Dr. William Li #64What if everything you've been told about metabolism, fat, and weight loss is wrong? In this episode, Samantha sits down with Dr. William Li for a second conversation in season 2 (Check out Episode #62, if you missed it - and Season 1 Episode #14 as well!).Dr. Li dismantles everything you thought you knew about metabolism, visceral fat, and intermittent fasting — revealing the science-backed strategies that let your body burn dangerous fat while you sleep, eat, and live your life.Dr. Li is an internationally renowned physician-scientist, president of the Angiogenesis Foundation, and New York Times bestselling author of Eat to Beat Your Diet — to expose the myths that have kept so many women stuck in a cycle of dieting, frustration, and self-blame.Spoiler: your metabolism is not broken. It never was.From the newly discovered science proving that human metabolism stays rock-stable from age 20 to 60, to the hidden danger of "skinny fat" and its shocking link to breast cancer, to the brilliantly simple 12-hour fasting protocol Dr. Li himself follows every day — this episode is a masterclass in working with your body instead of against it. Plus, the true origin story of the famous 16:8 intermittent fasting method that no one is talking about.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:Your metabolism is NOT slowing down: Learn the findings from a landmark study of 6,000 people that completely rewrites what we thought we knew about metabolism — and where the real culprit actually lives.Fat is a hormone-producing organ: Discover why healthy fat is essential to your metabolic function, and what happens to your hormones when it starts to grow out of control.Excess fat behaves like a tumor: Find out why Dr. Li says too much body fat follows the same dangerous playbook as cancer — and why that makes chronic inflammation so much more urgent to address.Skinny fat is a real and serious risk: Learn what a 13-year Cornell study found when it scanned nearly 3,500 normal-weight women — and why the results are a wake-up call for women who think they're in the clear.Foods that burn fat at the cellular level: Discover which everyday grocery store foods contain natural bioactives that work against fat growth — and how they do it without you changing everything on your plate.The tape measure test: Find out why your waistline tells a more accurate story about your health than your BMI, your scale, or your body size — and how to use it at home for free.Why 12 hours of fasting is enough: Learn the surprisingly achievable protocol Dr. Li follows himself every single day — and why the research says you don't need to go longer to see real results.The truth about 16:8: Discover the origin story of the most popular intermittent fasting method — and why its famous time window has almost nothing to do with human science.Insulin is the metabolic switch: Understand the simple biological reason your body burns fat while you sleep — and how the timing of your last meal determines how hard it works overnight.Ultra-lean is not ultra-safe: Find out why the medical literature puts extreme leanness in the same dangerous category as extreme obesity — and what that means for how we define a healthy goal.About Our GuestDr. William Li is an internationally renowned physician, scientist, researcher, and author whose work has impacted over 70 diseases, including cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. He is the founder and president of the Angiogenesis Foundation and is best known for his groundbreaking TED Talk, Can We Eat to Starve Cancer?, which has been viewed by millions worldwide.

Plus, you can join our growing Zwift racing community and take on Gareth and Ross in a weekly TT! A monthly pledge is all it takes!In this show:Switzerland's Audrey Werro delivered a stunning plot twist in the women's 800m, running the third fastest time in history (1:53.98) in Stockholm to beat a personal best from Keely Hodgkinson. Suddenly the world record conversation has two names in it. We discuss Werro's emergence and potential, the tactical error that may have cost Hodgkinson slightly, and what this means for the possibilities that the oldest world record in the sport falls this yearWhere does Femke Bol fit into all this? The Dutch 400m hurdles star changed events in search of new challenges, but the event is evolving so fast that the challenge looks significantly greater and she's not even raced outdoors yet! We discuss whether her 400 meter speed is a genuine weapon or whether the 400-800 double is as rare as it is for good reasonCooper Lutkenhaus is the most exciting teenager in track and field, already a world indoor champion, and now a Diamond League winner. We talk about his pedigree and potential, with Gareth nothing a multi-sport background that augurs well for his longevity. Challenges and 'road bumps' await, but he has a ceiling that may lie beyond the current world recordKirsty Coventry said she doesn't believe in paying Olympic athletes, and it has not landed well. Global Athlete has responded with a proposal for interim payments and a breakdown of the IOC's finances that is staggering. The IOC is sitting on nearly five billion dollars in reserves, and Global Athlete are asking for eight percent of the Paris broadcasting revenue. We ponder why Coventry made that statement knowing it would invite significant blowback, and what it reveals about the pressure she is under from inside the IOC. We also speculate on whether there are any good reasons to avoid paying Olympic athletesAnna van der Breggen lost the women's Giro on the final day from the pink jersey, her second Grand Tour lead lost this year. We explore why smaller team sizes in the women's peloton make tactical racing both more unpredictable and more compelling, and why the women's Tour de France is shaping up to be exceptionalThe UCI's weekly rule update: no more front jersey pockets, bike computers limited in size, finishing straights must now be at least 200 meters, and an appeal against the Belgian court ruling on gear ratios. We work through each one, pick out the ones that make sense and the ones that really don't, and ask again why the SAFER data hasn't been made public to respond some of the criticisms the UCI are receivingChristian Eriksen collapsed again during an international friendly, this time saved by his implantable cardioverter defibrillator. Ross explains what the device actually does, how often it fires appropriately versus inappropriately, and why Erikison's second event raises serious questions about whether continuing to play is tenableAnd finally, a listener on Discourse solved the mystery of why Shohei Ohtani's baseball salary looked so low on the Forbes rich list. The answer involves 68 million dollars per year deferred over a decade, void years, ghost contracts, and some of the most creative accounting in professional sport Hosted on Acast.

When Artemis II lifted off this past April, marking humanity's return to the Moon, people across the world were captivated. It was a triumph decades in the making, but also shaped by painful loss. In this episode of Tiny Matters, we trace the legacy of the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster on its 40th anniversary, unpacking what went wrong both scientifically and organizationally, and how the event necessarily helped reshape NASA's safety culture. We hear firsthand from astronaut Terry Hart, who flew on Challenger less than two years before the accident, and from NASA's acting Chief of Safety and Mission Assurance, Nathan Vassberg, about how Challenger — and later, Columbia — reshaped the way NASA thinks about risk, and how those lessons were applied to Artemis II. We also hear from Vanessa Bentley, professor of applied ethics who teaches a course dissecting the conflict between managers and engineers that led to the tragedy.Send us your science facts, news, or other stories for a chance to be featured on an upcoming Tiny Show and Tell Us bonus episode.

More revenue does not automatically create financial security. In this episode, Brian Thompson explores why so many entrepreneurs still feel anxious even when business is going well, and what actually builds business stability over the long term. Brian gets honest about the gap between revenue growth and emotional security, drawing from his own experience and years of working with entrepreneurs at every stage of business. If you have ever hit a goal and still felt like everything could fall apart, this episode will help you understand why, and what to do about it.   In this episode you will learn: Why revenue growth alone does not create financial security How scarcity mindset follows entrepreneurs into later stages of success The five systems that actually build business stability over time Why cash reserves, financial clarity, and consistent bookkeeping reduce anxiety How to start building resilience now without waiting for a specific revenue number Why business stability is about sustainable design, not just income growth   Financial security in entrepreneurship is less about hitting a number and more about building intentional systems that create resilience. Business stability comes from clarity, preparation, and the structures you put in place, not from revenue milestones alone. Whether you are early in your business or well established, this episode offers a grounded and honest look at the emotional side of entrepreneurship and the practical steps that actually help entrepreneurs feel more secure.   Resources + Links Newsletter Sign Up Follow Brian Thompson Online: Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, X, Forbes Follow & review the podcast: on Spotify and Apple Podcasts   About Brian and the Mission Driven Business Podcast Brian Thompson, JD/CFP®, is a tax attorney and Certified Financial Planner® who specializes in providing comprehensive financial planning to LGBTQ+ entrepreneurs who run mission-driven businesses.

Hosts: Ed Jones (Owner – Nutrition World) & Clint Powell A variety of topics for living a healthy life Presented by: Nutrition World www.nutritionw.com Broadcasting from the Nooga Dentistry Studio www.noogadentistry.com Production of: Whitfield Media Group www.vitalhealthradio.com Title: Digestive Enzymes, Gut Health, and Omega-3's with Guest Brenda Watson [0:00:00] Show Intro,  National Club Foot Day & Prior Episode Reference Ed mentions National Club Foot Day (previous Wednesday). References a prior Vital Health Radio episode where he strongly criticized a local Chattanooga physician for poor club foot care that nearly harmed his grandson. Ed urges: Anyone with a child/grandchild with club foot seeing providers in Chattanooga  listen to our Feb 15th (2026) episode Contact: NutritionWorld@comcast.net to get details of that show and the physician referenced. Emphasis on truth, empowerment, and avoiding harm from medical “inefficiency and ignorance.” [0:03:58] Delta-8 Gummies, Anxiety/Sleep & Lifespan Extension Concepts Recap of a recent show with Hemp House. Ed explains: Only about three weeks left to legally purchase Delta-8 gummies at Hemp House or Nutrition World. Why someone might use Delta-8: Anxiety Trouble sleeping Need to stay functional but calmer Must find the right dose individually (no standard dosing). Safer than many anti-anxiety drugs when used properly. He is saving several containers in his freezer for future “bumps in the road” (periods of poor sleep or high stress). Notes dogs may benefit for anxiety, thunder phobia, pain, etc., when used correctly and from a trusted company. Ed recommends Dr. David Sinclair's “Lifespan” podcast: Focus on practical drugs, supplements, and lifestyle strategies to extend lifespan. Central concept: cellular repair – if we repaired cells at 50 as well as at 20, lifespan could drastically increase. Key tools Dr. Sinclair highlights (as relayed by Ed): Rapamycin – Ed takes this drug himself; impacts mTOR; can extend lifespan even when started later in life. AMPK activators – sold at Nutrition World; support clearing out old/dysfunctional cells. Resveratrol – mimics some effects of fasting. Hyperbaric oxygen – discussed as a potential lifespan extender. Ed shares Sinclair's animal-longevity illustrations: A mole rat living ~20x longer than regular rats → proves there are mechanisms of extended lifespan. A long-lived whale (Clint jokes and riffs on the name) said to reach ~200 years, suggesting humans might mimic similar mechanisms. [0:08:46] Call for Listener Stories & Introduction of Guest Brenda Watson Ed invites listeners to share personal health recovery stories, especially involving “the Green Pharmacy” (natural, nutritional, and lifestyle approaches, including Nutrition World support). Announced collaboration with Clint Powell on a new podcast: Short, credible motivational/educational stories (5–20 minutes). Focus: “I was in bad shape, now I'm much better” recovery narratives. Participants receive a $50 Nutrition World gift card. Recordings at a studio ~5 minutes from Nutrition World. Introduction of guest Brenda Watson, founder of Vital Planet. Described as a guru of gut health and the microbiome: Leaky gut, SIBO, broad digestive health expertise. Ed recalls her long-running NPR fund-raiser specials on gut health that reached tens of thousands. [0:13:25] Digestive Enzymes, Gut Health & Problems with Acid Blockers Topic: What is an enzyme? Why does it matter? Brenda's explanation: Enzymes “break things apart”: Protease → breaks proteins into amino acids. Amylase → breaks starches into glucose. Lipase → breaks fats into fatty acids. Ideally, stomach, pancreas, liver, and gallbladder work together to digest food into absorbable units. Early digestive symptoms: Heartburn, gas, bloating, etc. Many people self-treat with OTC antacids or proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and this often worsens underlying issues. Her main point: For early digestive symptoms, start with a full-spectrum digestive enzyme (protease, amylase, lipase) with meals, not acid-blocking drugs. As we age, natural digestion weakens, compounded by poor food quality. If food is not properly digested: It rots in the gut → gas, overgrowth of “bad bugs”. Contributes to SIBO, leaky gut, and broader dysbiosis. Leads to poor absorption of nutrients and worsening health. Enzymes as Step One: Should be a first-line intervention alongside or even before probiotics. Emphasizes that digestive enzymes for digestion must be taken with meals. Brenda notes she ran a stool test program with 12 people; often saw imbalanced gut bacteria driven by undigested food. Modern enzyme formulations can be more targeted: Gluten-support enzymes. General high-potency formulas. Formulas for dairy and fat, especially for people on keto who need extra fat-digesting support. She reiterates: Poor digestion = bad bacteria, leaky gut, SIBO, multiple gut issues. Digestive enzymes are a “no-brainer” first step when digestive symptoms appear. [0:23:47] Enzymes as a Foundational Strategy & Aging, Pancreas/Bile Physiology Emphasizes: Rotting food analogy: leftover food in a trash can on a 97°F day = what undigested food can be like inside the gut. Even without symptoms, after age ~40–45, enzymes may be wise especially for people who: Overeat Eat a lot of dairy or gluten Notes loose stools and general poor health can be caused by lack of pancreatic enzymes. Shares a case where a client's stool test showed zero pancreatic enzyme production, correlating with constant sickness. You can “get away with” some other health issues, but you cannot have a dysfunctional digestive tract and still expect even average health. Brenda further explains physiology and pH: Stomach should be very acidic (pH ~2) during digestion. When partly digested food moves into the small intestine: Bicarbonate is released to neutralize acid. Pancreas releases enzymes (protease, amylase, lipase). Liver/gallbladder release bile for fat digestion near the same region. If stomach acid is suppressed, the chain reaction is disrupted: Poor enzyme activation. Poor bile function. pH shifts can foster candida and other imbalances (e.g., colon getting too alkaline). She underscores: From mouth to colon, each region needs appropriate pH. Chronic use of acid blockers has long-term downstream consequences. Ed mentions a simple at-home baking soda test to roughly gauge stomach acid (baking soda in water between meals, watching for burping). Important caution: If you're on acid-blocking medications, you must wean off slowly; do not stop abruptly. Nutrition World's pharmacist, Dr. Curt Dearing, helps people step down from PPIs and H2 blockers safely (in partnership with their physicians). [0:30:58] Omega-3s , Purity, and Heart/Brain Health Ed highlights Vital Omega (Vital Planet): #1 selling product at Nutrition World. Exceptional purity and transparency (heavy emphasis on contaminant-free sourcing). Very high potency (2350 mg of EPA/DHA per serving). No “fish burp” complaints and virtually no returns. Contains lipase enzyme to support fat digestion and further reduce digestive discomfort. Omega blood tests on customers show high omega-3 levels when using this brand. Brenda agrees: Omega-3s are critical at any age, especially in today's toxic environment. You might skip a multivitamin, but you should not skip omega-3s. Ed's additional points: Olive oil and flax oil are not the same as concentrated EPA/DHA. EPA/DHA are essential for cell membranes, cardiovascular health, and cognitive function. Warns of contaminated fish oil from polluted waters (mercury, heavy metals, etc.). Website plug for Vital Planet: VitalPlanet.com for education, and product details. Ed reiterates his respect for Brenda's decades of ethical, passionate work and says they'll have her back on again.   [0:38:54] Lifestyle, Local Food, Pillows, and Environmental Toxins Ed and Clint return; Ed summarizes the show's philosophy: Better aging is about strength, clarity, mobility, energy, not just added years. Introduces term “peak span”, maximizing the years we're at peak function, not just lifespan. Critiques normalization of poor health (hunched posture, chronic pain, poor sleep, anxiety) as “just getting old.” Local food talk: Discussion of Tallow House in Cleveland (burger restaurant, cousin of Tony from Portofino). Two-hour waits, excellent reviews, smash burgers, buns from Neidlovs bakery. Dust mites and pillows: Ed cites data that about 1/3 of a pillow can be dead skin + dust mites over time. Many pillows also contain fire retardant chemicals leading to chronic exposure while sleeping. Ed searched for non-toxic pillows via Mamavation: A site that tests products for chemical residues and rates them. His previous pillow (from Avocado) came out top-rated, so he bought a new Avocado pillow. Recommends buying via Mammovation's affiliate link for a small discount. [0:44:00] Essential Oils, Green Pharmacy & Polypharmacy Ed on essential oils quality: A test of 20 lavender oils from Amazon found: Only 3 were pure. 17 were diluted/contaminated with other oils. Smell alone isn't a reliable indicator of quality. Nutrition World only carries brands with Certificates of Analysis; dropped an entire line a few years back over quality concerns. Ed shares a Taiwanese blood pressure study: 58 adults with high blood pressure, many on meds. wore a face mask with a cotton pad containing small amounts of real lavender oil for 15 minutes/day over 7 days. Result: systolic blood pressure reduced by ~10 points. A placebo (fake) oil did not reduce blood pressure. One-day use showed no benefit – consistent use was required. He frames this as an example of the “Green Pharmacy”: Mentions Dr. Curt Dearing (pharmacist at Nutrition World): Helps people review and rationalize medication lists, with the goal of reducing polypharmacy in collaboration with prescribing doctors. References a recent Vital Health Radio episode on polypharmacy (average American takes ~17 prescriptions per year). [0:56:48] Meditation, Mindset, Ancient Wisdom & Fulfillment Story from the Daily Stoic: Kurt Vonnegut and Joseph Heller at a billionaire's party: Vonnegut points out the host made more money yesterday than Heller's Catch-22 ever did. Heller replies he has something the billionaire never will: “the knowledge that I've got enough.” Ed uses this to emphasize: The power of knowing you have enough. Shifting from chasing money to working for fulfillment once basics are covered. Clint adds: You must learn to be content with what you have while still pursuing goals. More stuff doesn't automatically create a content person. Ed reads a longer reflection on “ancient wisdom” vs. modern medicine: Fundamental philosophy: alignment with nature. Humans thrived for millennia without pharmaceuticals (acknowledges infectious disease issues before hygiene and antibiotics). Nearly every drug has unintended consequences and rarely treats root causes. Cites estimate: medical errors as the 3rd leading cause of death in the US (~250,000 deaths/year). Notes ~90% of American calories now come from processed foods and seed oils Argues seed oils are among the most destructive components of the modern diet. Many cardiologists still recommend them as heart-healthy, highlighting the conflict between mainstream and holistic views. Plug for Ed's book: “Are You Sick and Tired of Being Sick and Tired” available at TheHolisticNavigator.com, built around ancient wisdom.  The post Radio Show / Podcast – June 7, 2026 first appeared on Vital Health Radio.

One bad hookup can erase a month of profit, and one shortcut can change a life forever. That's why we brought on Beau White, CEO of Towing and Recovery Academy and a longtime heavy recovery operator, to get painfully clear about what training really buys you: fewer damage claims, fewer injuries, stronger confidence under pressure, and a reputation that stands up when everyone has a camera.We talk through Beau's path into towing, why he chose to join Hannon, and what great leadership looks like when owners show up on the roadside and invest in people like family. From there, the conversation goes deep on the real-world value of towing and recovery training: how humility separates good operators from great ones, why “I've always done it that way” is dangerous, and how hands-on learning beats watching from the back of a crowded class. Bo also shares a standout recovery bringing a loaded tractor-trailer out of the water during a hurricane, and why you don't “rise to the occasion” as much as you fall back on your training.We also get into what makes Towing and Recovery Academy different: small classes, “no wallflowers,” and a culture where questions don't get mocked. Bo announces the next step in heavy duty recovery training with an indoor heated and air-conditioned facility in Maryland, plus the chance to get hands-on with serious equipment. If you run a towing company, manage a team, or want to level up as an operator, this is a practical playbook for safer, cleaner, more professional recoveries.Subscribe wherever you listen, share this with one operator who needs it, and leave a review so more tow pros can find the training-first mindset.

The Devil's Ledger — Week of June 1st, 2026 Happy Blue Moon. As a rare second full moon lights up the skies over Los Angeles, we take a moment to reflect—on endings, beginnings, and the strange things that seem to surface when the night feels just a little too still. And to all the graduates out there—congratulations. Wherever you're headed next, may you do wonderful things… big and small. The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week This week, we explore the unsettling legend of Grace—a Victorian-era doll that has gone from antique curiosity to one of the UK's most talked-about haunted artifacts. Once an ordinary toy, Grace's reputation began in 2018 during a paranormal investigation where guests reported physical symptoms, unexplained movement, and chilling electronic voice phenomena. Since then, the doll has followed investigators from location to location, leaving behind a trail of reported disturbances, recorded voices, and growing fascination. Now, in the latest development, investigators claim to have captured a single, chilling word coming from the doll: “Burn.” Is it evidence of something attached to the artifact… or simply the power of suggestion taking hold? Either way, Grace has become something more than a relic of the past—she's a modern legend. The Devil Within Season Five (What We Built… And What We Buried) continues with “The Man Who Fixed Everything.” This episode examines the chemist who introduced chlorofluorocarbons—CFCs—as a safer alternative to toxic refrigeration gases. At the time, it was a breakthrough. Cleaner. Safer. Stable. A solution. But what followed was something far larger—and far more damaging—than anyone anticipated. A global consequence that reshaped how we understand unintended impact, and the cost of innovation without foresight. Criminal Mischief Carolyn is back after a brief hiatus with another meticulously researched deep dive into the darker corners of human behavior. As always, this isn't just storytelling—it's reconstruction. The Culture of Criminal Cool We're now up to Episode 5, and the response has been incredible. Thank you to everyone who's been listening, commenting, and sharing. Adam Diaz is proving to be exactly what we thought—a story worth telling. The Slippery Nancy and Scott return with another hard-to-believe story of deception, betrayal, and outright grift. The kind of story that makes you stop mid-episode and ask— How did this actually happen? This show is quickly becoming a must-listen. This Week in Horror Something is shifting. Two films—Obsession and Backrooms—have taken over the box office. Both from creators who came out of YouTube. Not the traditional system. Not the usual pipeline. New voices. New instincts. And audiences are showing up in a big way. Is this a moment… or the beginning of something bigger? Watch them. Then let me know what you think.

#surrogacy #ivf #surrogateHeart to Hands' Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hearttohandssurrogacy?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==She signed a surrogacy contract the night before embryo transfer even after a brand-new attorney told her not to and the story only gets more real from there. We're joined by Adrienne Black, a retired surrogate with decades in family building, founder and CEO of Heart to Hands Surrogacy, and acting president of SEEDS (Society for Ethics in Egg Donation and Surrogacy). Adrienne takes us back to the early days when resources were scarce, agencies were hit-or-miss, and “you don't know what you don't know” could put a surrogate and her family at risk. We talk through the big shifts in IVF and embryology, including how genetic testing and single embryo transfer have changed outcomes and expectations. Adrienne also shares what she's learned about intended parents' vulnerability, the power imbalance that can show up in surrogacy, and why the best journeys happen when the surrogate and intended parents are supported as one unit. If you're researching a surrogacy agency, becoming a surrogate, or starting as an intended parent, this conversation gives you concrete questions to ask about contracts, screening timelines, education, and who is really protecting your interests. Then we zoom out to the industry-level view: private equity, changing legislation, and why surrogacy can't “fly under the radar” anymore. Adrienne explains what SEEDS does, how ethical standards are evolving across agencies and escrow, and why professionalism matters for every child's origin story. Links we mention include Heart to Hands Surrogacy, Adrienne's YouTube channel Surrogacy Queen, and our sponsor US Surrogacy LLC at us-surrogacy.com. Subscribe, share this with someone considering surrogacy, and leave a review with the question you want us to tackle next. Learn more:• Heart to Hands Surrogacy: https://hearttohandssurrogacy.com/• SEEDS: https://seedsethics.org/Send us Fan Mailhttps://stopsitsurrogate.com

What if there was literally a plastic spoon's worth of microplastics sitting inside your brain right now? In this jaw-dropping and deeply urgent solo episode, Darin Olien breaks down the newest science on microplastics, nanoplastics, brain accumulation, neuroinflammation, endocrine disruption, and the rapidly escalating contamination of the human body. Referencing groundbreaking new research published in Nature Medicine and newly launched U.S. government initiatives, Darin exposes how plastics are no longer just an environmental issue—they are now a human biology issue. From nanoplastics crossing the blood-brain barrier to endocrine-disrupting chemicals like BPA, PFAS, and phthalates accumulating in tissues, placentas, and testes, this episode explores the shocking implications of modern plastic exposure—and, more importantly, what practical steps you can take immediately to reduce your risk.     What You'll Learn The shocking new study finding microplastics in 100% of healthy human brains Why the average brain may now contain roughly a plastic spoon's worth of plastic How nanoplastics cross the blood-brain barrier The alarming connection between microplastics and dementia research Why plastics are not biologically inert substances The endocrine-disrupting chemicals hitchhiking on microplastics How bottled water, tea bags, coffee pods, and heated plastics dramatically increase exposure The role of PFAS, BPA, phthalates, and flame retardants in human health decline Why reverse osmosis filtration is one of the most effective protective tools Practical ways to reduce microplastic exposure immediately     Chapters 00:00:03 – Welcome to SuperLife 00:00:33 – Sponsor: Alkemis wellness paint and indoor air toxicity 00:00:57 – Conventional

Inside our brains. Inside our blood vessels. Inside unborn children. But while the scale of the problem is staggering, the solution begins with everyday choices. What you drink from. What you heat your food in. What you filter. What you buy. Your body is not a landfill—and reclaiming your health starts with refusing to treat it like one."     Bibliography/Sources Primary Scientific Studies Bornstein, S. R., et al. (2025).
