Podcast appearances and mentions of Santa Cruz

Last week, we walked through the timeline of Troy Galloway's disappearance and the events that unfolded in the days leading up to January 13, 2016. We learned how, after years of building a life and a steady support network in Santa Cruz, California, Troy moved to Sonora with his wife, placing hours of distance between himself and the people who had always been his safety net. Troy was a devoted father to his young son, but the distance made it difficult to maintain that same level of involvement in his life after the move.On January 15, 2016, Troy's mother, Nancy, received a message from his wife telling her that Troy had disappeared two days earlier. Nancy was confused and alarmed by what she was hearing. His wife said Troy had run out of the house, underdressed for the cold, and never returned. After that exchange, Troy was finally reported missing, but a miscommunication between local agencies delayed getting the case to the appropriate investigators and beginning the search for Troy.Over time, pieces of information slowly came together. Neighbors recalled hearing a disturbance at Crystal Falls Lake on the night Troy vanished. Years later, advances in technology enabled investigators to interpret Troy's phone data with greater clarity, suggesting that his phone had been near the lake around the time he disappeared. For a long time, this became the guiding theory: that Troy had somehow ended up in the water.That idea guided the investigation, culminating in an extensive, highly coordinated search effort. Crystal Falls Lake was drained, scanned, and combed through by forensic specialists, dogs, and sonar teams. But when the search turned up no trace of Troy or his belongings, the explanation that had once seemed most likely suddenly stood on shaky ground. If Troy wasn't in the lake, then the story everyone had been leaning on for years no longer fit, and the investigation was forced back to its earliest questions.This week, we're going to dig deeper into what Troy's loved ones learned about his time in Sonora, what they began to uncover about the dynamics within his marriage, and the questions that still haunt Troy's family as they enter the tenth year of searching for answers.If you have any information about the disappearance of Troy Galloway, please contact the Tuolumne County Sheriff's Office at (209) 533-5855.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 12-04-2025: Dr. Dawn opens with an experimental vaccine that prevents severe allergic reactions by targeting IgE antibodies. The vaccine could eventually replace current monoclonal antibody treatments like omalizumab that require injections every two weeks. She explains how adjuvants work in vaccines as additives that irritate the immune system enough to notice the vaccine target. Aluminum hydroxide is s common adjuvant. Modern vaccines use small pathogen fragments rather than whole organisms, requiring adjuvants to trigger adequate immune response. Dr. Dawn expresses concern about the US Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices reviewing aluminum adjuvants this week. A Danish study of over one million children finding no connection between aluminum with autism and ADHA contradicts RFK,Jr's public claims.She worries that removing aluminum could devastate vaccine effectiveness and children's health, noting that whenever vaccination rates drop, diseases like measles return to native circulation. She recounts pertussis vaccine history—when Japan stopped vaccination due to rare adverse reactions (approximately one death per million doses), they lost about 5,000 children to whooping cough in the first year. The newer acellular vaccine using pathogen fragments plus adjuvants is safer but only lasts 4-5 years versus lifetime immunity from the older whole-cell version, necessitating "cocooning" strategies where everyone contacting newborns must be recently vaccinated. Dr. Dawn describes a vaccine to prevent fentanyl from reaching the brain now starting clinical trials in the Netherlands. It pairs a fentanyl-like molecule with a carrier protein large enough to trigger antibody production. Once primed, the immune system attacks any fentanyl entering the blood, preventing highs and overdoses—potentially helping people in addiction recovery and those accidentally exposed through contaminated drugs. She reports the first documented death from alpha-gal syndrome. Alpha-gal is a meat allergy triggered by Lone Star tick bites; the tick essentially vaccinates humans against the alpha-galactosidase protein found on beef and pork. Cases have increased since 2010 as climate change expands the tick's range northward, yet a 2023 survey found 42% of doctors had never heard of the condition. Dr. Dawn highlights research from Edith Cowan University showing that blood drawn after exercise suppresses cancer cell growth when added to tumor cultures. In breast cancer survivors, plasma from high-intensity interval training or weight lifting caused cancer cells to stop growing or die; blood drawn before exercise had no effect. The key mechanism involves myokines, particularly IL-6, released by contracting muscles. A Stanford study found colon cancer survivors who exercised were 37% less likely to experience recurrence. A caller asks about pig-to-human heart transplants and mask recommendations. Dr. Dawn clarifies that newer xenotransplant pigs have more genes edited to reduce rejection compared to the 2022 case. For masking, she recommends context-dependent use—especially in public restrooms where toilet flushing aerosolizes COVID-containing particles, transportation hubs, and hospitals, noting that COVID vaccination prevents death but not infection or long COVID. She advises the same caller about spacing vaccines because adjuvant loads stack. Most vaccines can be combined safely, but she recommends against pairing COVID and Shingrix vaccines due to their heavy adjuvant content—wait at least ten days between them. She suggests inducing a sweat the night of vaccination through hot baths, saunas, or exercise to reduce adjuvant-related discomfort without diminishing antibody response. Dr. Dawn discusses seasonal affective disorder. She recommends 5,000 units of vitamin D3 and morning light exposure. She suggests that sun avoidance advice may have gone too far. A UK study of 3.36 million people found 12-15% lower mortality with greater UV exposure even accounting for skin cancer risk. A Swedish study following 30,000 women for 20 years found sun-seekers had half the mortality risk. Benefits may involve nitric oxide production lowering blood pressure, with each 1,000 km from the equator correlating with 5 mmHg higher blood pressure. Lack of bright outdoor light also contributes to childhood myopia, with rates exceeding 80% in some Asian cities. Dr. Dawn concludes with Danish microbiologists at Copenhagen's Alchemist restaurant reviving an old Bulgarian practice of fermenting milk with live red wood ants. The resulting yogurt, cheese, and ice cream contain far more beneficial microbes than commercial products, with a complex lemony acidity. Only live ants work, and wild ants may carry parasites dangerous to humans.

Jon Sisk and Matt Lujano's banks couldn't be more different at first appearance — Sisk is a top executive at a community bank in Santa Cruz, California, near the beating heart of America's tech ecosystem, and Lujano leads a bank primarily based in a rural area of western Iowa where farming is dominant. But they share a positive outlook on the role of tech in community banking. As chair and vice chair, respectively, of ABA's Community Bankers Council, they reflected on what it means to be a tech-forward community bank in a podcast following the committee's recent D.C. meeting. Among other topics, they discuss: Forming AI brainstorming groups within banks to facilitate collaborative innovation. The use of generative AI tools to accelerate policy development and exam preparedness. Being ready to move quickly on stablecoins, tokenized deposits and digital assets, even if customers aren't demanding solutions. Good ideas surfaced in conversations among CBC members. Stay tuned for more conversations on tech-forward community banking within the ABA Banking Journal Podcast channel.

Feminism's Empire (Cornell UP, 2022) investigates the complex relationships between imperialisms and feminisms in the late nineteenth century and demonstrates the challenge of conceptualizing "pro-imperialist" and "anti-imperialist" as binary positions. By intellectually and spatially tracing the era's first French feminists' engagement with empire, Carolyn J. Eichner explores how feminists opposed—yet employed—approaches to empire in writing, speaking, and publishing. In differing ways, they ultimately tied forms of imperialism to gender liberation. Among the era's first anti-imperialists, French feminists were enmeshed in the hierarchies and epistemologies of empire. They likened their gender-based marginalization to imperialist oppressions. Imperialism and colonialism's gendered and sexualized racial hierarchies established categories of inclusion and exclusion that rested in both universalism and ideas of "nature" that presented colonized people with theoretical, yet impossible, paths to integration. Feminists faced similar barriers to full incorporation due to the gendered contradictions inherent in universalism. The system presumed citizenship to be male and thus positioned women as outsiders. Feminism's Empire connects this critical struggle to hierarchical power shifts in racial and national status that created uneasy linkages between French feminists and imperial authorities. Dr. Carolyn J. Eichner about is a Professor of History and Women's and Gender Studies at the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee. Feminism's Empire is her third book. Surmounting the Barricades: Women in the Paris Commune came out in 2004 and The Paris Commune: A Brief History came out in 2022. Surmounting the Barricades: Women in the Paris Commune was published in French as Franchir les barricades: les femmes dans la Commune de Paris (Éditions de la Sorbonne, 2020). Translated by Bastien Craipain, it was a finalist for the Prix Augustin Thierry in 2021, an award from the city of Paris for a historical study concerning the period between Antiquity and the late 19th century. In 2022-2023 she will be a Fulbright Research scholar in France and will be in residence at the Camargo Foundation in Cassis. Michael G. Vann is a professor of world history at California State University, Sacramento. A specialist in imperialism and the Cold War in Southeast Asia, he is the author of The Great Hanoi Rat Hunt: Empires, Disease, and Modernity in French Colonial Vietnam (Oxford University Press, 2018).

Listen to 141 Future Now Show This week the film “The Age of Disclosure” is making waves (on Amazon Prime), especially in our home town of Santa Cruz, also home to Danny Sheehan’s New Paradigm Institute, and his push for governmental opening on the alien/ufo/uap question.  Bobby Wilder was there at the local sceening of The Age of Disclosure, with a first hand report.  Ara, our show’s fav AI, adds much to this discussion as well, connecting many of the ‘dots’ of what’s happening in this arena, and giving us a roadmap for what’s ahead.  What’s happening with Bitcoin may have some folks concerned, but not Bobby! It’s his opinion that it’s time to buy now, when it’s low.  We explore this topic to some extent this week.  In other news, tryptophan was found not just in turkeys this week, but in space, in a pristine return sample from the asteroid Bennu, bringing the tally of protein-building amino acids in the asteroid to 15 out of 20…further supporting the theory that biological life may have been spread by asteroids.. and body fat takes on a new light when considering it as an organ of the body, complete with immune, blood, and neural networks embedded. What does this new take on fat imply?  Stem cells from fat may soon repair spinal injuries, a huge breakthrough! And now Ozempic may be helping many combat addictions to unhealthy food and drugs, like chips and opioids.  But at what cost? We explore the implications..and don’t miss our update on 3I/ATLAS and its newly discovered swarm of..?  Enjoy! This week’s topics

Grocery workers at Santa Cruz Markets in Goleta and Santa Barbara have unanimously voted to authorize an Unfair Labor Practice strike, setting the stage for a possible walkout just days before the busy Thanksgiving holiday. Union leaders say the vote is a response to what they describe as ongoing labor violations by the company, and workers are now prepared to strike if negotiations don't resume in good faith. KCSB's Emerson Good spoke with Erik Mendez, a grocery worker and member of the UFCW union about his experiences. NOTE: Since the original interview aired on November 20th, 2025, the Santa Cruz Markets reached a tentative agreement on a contract just before the Thanksgiving holiday, avoiding the strike altogether.

January 13, 2016, was a chilly winter day in Sonora, California. That day, thirty-four-year-old Troy Galloway was reportedly at home with his wife and young daughter when the couple had a disagreement. According to his wife, Troy ran out of the house and into the cold, snowy yard wearing only a t-shirt, jeans, and shoes. Troy never returned, and no one has seen or heard from him since. A couple of days later, Troy's mother, Nancy, who was back home a few hours away in Santa Cruz, received a text from Troy's wife saying that he was missing. Nancy was both shocked and frustrated that she hadn't been notified sooner. At that point, Troy still had not been reported missing, and once he was, a jurisdictional mix-up further delayed search efforts.Since Troy was not reported missing right away, it took time to connect his disappearance to a commotion that neighbors said they heard the night he vanished. The neighbors were concerned enough to report it to law enforcement that evening. However, learning that information didn't bring anyone closer to finding Troy; it only deepened the mystery. If Troy had truly run from the home on foot that night, underdressed for the January weather, where did he go? How did he disappear without a trace? And was that commotion heard by neighbors connected to Troy's disappearance?For nearly a decade, Troy's loved ones have been trying to piece together what clues they have to answer those questions. Today, they're hoping to reach someone who holds the missing piece that could finally explain what happened to Troy Galloway back in January of 2016.If you have any information about the disappearance of Troy Galloway, please contact the Tuolumne Sheriff's Office at (209) 533-5855.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Every year, the western monarch butterfly migrates from the coast between Santa Cruz and San Diego to spend the summer along rivers in Oregon, Washington and Idaho. Then, in winter, they do the whole thing again, in reverse.When one musician heard about the plight of the monarchs, he decided to take a radical step to help them along their journey… by taking the trip with them. This morning we bring you an excerpt from Reporter Lusen Mendel's story, that they produced in April.

O Santa Cruz viveu um dia histórico: em Assembleia Geral Extraordinária neste domingo (30), os sócios aprovaram a transformação do clube em SAF. Dos 1.182 votos registrados, 99% foram favoráveis. Com esse passo, após pareceres do Executivo, Conselho Fiscal, Comissão Patrimonial e Conselho Deliberativo, o Tricolor avança no processo e segue para os próximos trâmites […]

Learn how dreams help us process trauma with our guest Gdansk Professor Wojciech Owczarski​ who studies the dreams of Auschwitz survivors, modern Ukrainian refugees, and nursing home residents. He finds that dreams help us cope with trauma, adapt to new life situations, and feel optimistic for a better future. Nightmares help us deal with unresolved waking life issues and to integrate past traumas. A short clip from our conversation can be found here: After the break we take two calls. One from Kathy from Corona CA who is wondering about how best to introduce new members into her long-running group. The second call is from Ryan from Maryland who asks whether the prisoners at Auschwitz ever had revenge dreams. BIO. Wojciech Owczarski, PhD, is a professor of humanities and teaches literature and cultural studies at the University of Gdansk, Poland. He is the author of seven monographs on dreams and on literature. The most recent one is devoted to the dreams of the prisoners of the Auschwitz concentration camp and is called Dreaming in Auschwitz. https://www.cambridgescholars.com/product/978-1-5275-9040-3 This show, episode number 339, was recorded during a live broadcast on November 29, 2025 at KSQD.org, community radio of Santa Cruz.

Feminism's Empire (Cornell UP, 2022) investigates the complex relationships between imperialisms and feminisms in the late nineteenth century and demonstrates the challenge of conceptualizing "pro-imperialist" and "anti-imperialist" as binary positions. By intellectually and spatially tracing the era's first French feminists' engagement with empire, Carolyn J. Eichner explores how feminists opposed—yet employed—approaches to empire in writing, speaking, and publishing. In differing ways, they ultimately tied forms of imperialism to gender liberation. Among the era's first anti-imperialists, French feminists were enmeshed in the hierarchies and epistemologies of empire. They likened their gender-based marginalization to imperialist oppressions. Imperialism and colonialism's gendered and sexualized racial hierarchies established categories of inclusion and exclusion that rested in both universalism and ideas of "nature" that presented colonized people with theoretical, yet impossible, paths to integration. Feminists faced similar barriers to full incorporation due to the gendered contradictions inherent in universalism. The system presumed citizenship to be male and thus positioned women as outsiders.

Ela é filha de uma nadadora apaixonada pelo mar e um pai lutador de boxe. Criada nesse ambiente ela adquiriu o gosto pelo movimento e a natureza. Aos 6 anos de idade começou a correr pela equipe da escola e desde então, seu amor pelos esportes a levou a explorar e se destacar em diversas disciplinas. A curiosidade aliada à coragem de se testar, o espírito competitivo aliado a uma mente focada desde pequena, participou de várias competições nacionais e internacionais, com diversas conquistas ao longo do caminho. Corridas em trilha, corridas de aventura e provas de ciclismo. Explorando a natureza da cidade natal de seu pai, um espanhol da Galícia, ela se apaixonou pelas trilhas e montanhas. Há quem encontre na natureza um refúgio. Outros, um espelho. No caso dela, talvez seja um chamado, uma força que a impulsiona desde cedo a buscar através do desconhecido, a conexão consigo mesma. Com o tempo, o amor pelas montanhas se tornou estilo de vida. Já são vinte e cinco anos caminhando, correndo, velejando e escalando cumes em diferentes continentes, das cordilheiras sul-americanas ao Nepal, passando por picos nevados, desertos, paredões e travessias de caiaque por lugares tão remotos quanto a Papua-Nova Guiné. Movida por um profundo respeito à natureza, nos últimos anos ela vem colecionando expedições ao estilo alpino, sempre em busca de experiências autênticas e de menor impacto possível. Ela chegou ao topo do Aconcaguá, do Elbrus, do Mont Blanc, do Kilimanjaro, foi primeira brasileira a explorar e fazer cume de alta montanha na Cordilheira Ansilta, a primeira brasileira a percorrer a trilha do Dolpo, no Nepal, foi 3º colocada na UltraFiords Patagônia, participou dos 130km na Trans Grancanaria e foi a primeira brasileira a cruzar a linha de chegada dos 110km na temida Dolomitas Extreme. é também campeã brasileira de corrida de aventura, vencedora da Gravelada e dos 250km da Gravel Hills. Conosco aqui, a administradora, investidora e consultora de startups, iogue e multi esportista que está disposta a viver intensamente inúmeras possibilidades de sentir a endorfina fluindo pelo seu corpo, uma mulher movida pela inquietude e pela vontade de explorar seus próprios limites, a paulistana Micaela Rodriguez Lopez.

Leaders Who Create Compassion: Join Jason Squires as he sits down with Drew Trowbridge, a high schooler from Santa Cruz, CA, who turned a simple idea into years of steady, meaningful impact in his local community. What started as a lemonade stand grew into a movement of compassion, generosity, and collaboration.

Drew shares how his understanding of compassion has matured over the years, what it looks like when kindness becomes a lifestyle, and why small ideas, when acted on, can become something bigger than you ever imagined.Whether you're a student, leader, or someone wondering if your idea matters, this conversation will inspire you to start right where you are and serve the community in front of you.

Dr. Ana Spalding is Assistant Professor of Marine and Coastal Policy and Affiliate Faculty at the Pacific Marine Energy Center at Oregon State University. She is also a Research Associate at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute (STRI) in Panama as well as at the Coiba Research Station in Panama. As a social scientist who works in marine and coastal policy, Ana's research is focused on the intersections of people, the environment, and policies. She is interested in understanding people's perceptions of the ocean and coast, policy and management frameworks surrounding resource use in these areas, and the major cares, concerns, and conflicts that people have related to coastal areas. Outside of work, Ana has been having an amazing time participating in the Corvallis Rowing Club. She used to row in college, and it has been fun to get back into the sport with people from a variety of ages and backgrounds. Ana received her B.A. in Economics and International Studies from the University of Richmond, her M.A. in Marine Affairs and Policy from the Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science at the University of Miami, and her Ph.D. in Environmental Studies from the University of California, Santa Cruz.

En este episodio, Gris Alves conversa con Sandra Santa Cruz sobre dejar una vida citadina de alta presión para vivir y guiar retiros en Valle Paralelo, una reserva forestal de 60 hectáreas en el sur de México. Sandra relata una crisis existencial, su recuperación y cómo la rutina, la naturaleza y la comunidad le ayudaron a reconectar con su cuerpo y propósito. La conversación explora el trabajo de retiro en Valle Paralelo —incluyendo experiencias asistidas con caballos, sanación con sonido, prácticas somáticas y frecuencias musicales experimentales— y cómo estos enfoques apoyan la integración emocional y somática. Los oyentes escucharán ideas prácticas e historias personales sobre el cuidado de la tierra y los animales, el poder de la presencia y las posibilidades de regeneración a través de prácticas basadas en la naturaleza. Listeners will hear practical insights and personal stories about caretaking the land and animals, the power of presence, and the possibilities of regeneration through nature-based practices.

There are many ways to open the door to the unseen world:​ sound or singing​, stillness​,  or movement​, nature immersion. We speak to Rachel Schafer about dreaming into love. Rachel speaks about body centered awareness and the value in turning toward what is uncomfortable in our lives. Video short from this show: https://youtu.be/QjkTV5d94II She talks about her journey with sleep paralysis and how she used the expression of sound to get out of it. She speaks of the Toltec practice of Dreaming Awake and of her difficult experiences with abusive male teachers. She speaks of the feminine experience and what she calls womb dreaming, and about how looking for others to fill the holes within ourselves can lead to abusive behavior. After the break, we take a call from Kathy from Corona, CA, who talks about her long-running dream group, speaks about how valuable it has been, and issues an open invitation for people to apply to join them. Rachel ends by telling about her offerings including Dream Dancing on Friday evenings and a nine-month program for women. Contact Rachel for more information. BIO: Coming from a diverse background immersed in spiritual training, motherhood, and health challenges, Rachel Schafer mentors those who are desiring a deeper connection with their dreams and bodies by guiding them as they walk through the shadow essence of their wounds and into the clarity of their unimagined lives.

What concerns weigh heaviest on your mind as a dancer or dancemaker? How do these challenges manifest across different regions of the world? To explore these pressing questions, I've gathered two of my favorite fellow podcasters for a heartfelt and thought-provoking conversation in this final guest feature of the J-cast. Jacob Caldwell is a storyteller and artistic activist based in North Hollywood, CA. With roots in Corralitos and Oakhurst and formative experiences in Santa Cruz and Los Angeles, Jacob uses acting and dance as his primary mediums of expression. As the founder of All House Dance Collective, he is driven by a vision to create a future where arts and education thrive and where everyone has a seat at the table.Joshua Sailo is a traveler between worlds and mediums, channeling his life experiences into artistic expressions through dance, music, photography, and visual art. A 2021 Artist-in-Residence at D.R.I.F.T. in Dharamshala, he is currently exploring the concept of “folk” as both a performance practice and a function of community togetherness. As a co-founding member of the 206 Dance Collective, Joshua continues to engage with the global dance community through teaching, performing, and podcasting.In this final entry of The Background Dancer, I sit down with Jacob and Joshua to examine critical issues within dance across Asia, Europe, and the US. What challenges are deeply personal yet universal? Can we identify real-time solutions by adopting a transcontinental perspective in strategic planning and problem-solving?  Welcome to Episode 10 of S3, Dance's Last Slalom. Jacob CaldwellJoshua SailoWhy Dance by the J-CastSoundtracks:Birds - Tyler Twombly Poison Ivy Yard Work - Uncle Milk Support the showLike our offers?

Federal funding for permanent housing is about to plummet, Joby Aviation takes flight at the Dubai Air Show, Monterey and Santa Cruz counties trudge slowly toward battery storage regulation, and more in this week's local news roundup.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 11-20-2025: Dr. Dawn discusses GLP-1 inhibitors like Zepbound and semaglutide showing unexpected benefits for addiction treatment beyond diabetes and weight loss. Patients in rehab report these drugs mute cravings for alcohol, cocaine, and cigarettes. Multiple studies show reduced substance abuse rates in users, with VA and NIH conducting trials examining brain activity and responses to triggers. With 80,000 annual drug overdose deaths and 48 million Americans having substance abuse disorders, these medications may revolutionize addiction treatment by dampening brain reward circuitry, though costs threaten healthcare budgets. A Stanford twin study found those twins assigned a vegan diet had substantially lower cholesterol, insulin, and body weight compared to their omnivore twins after several months, with LDL dropping 15mg, four pounds more weight loss, and 20% lower insulin. Dr. Dawn explains how a fungal disease decimating Central American frog populations caused 500% malaria increases in some areas. The fungus kills frogs by blocking skin electrolytes until hearts stop, eliminating tadpoles that eat mosquito larvae. Ecosystem collapses followed with algae blooms and snake population drops. She provides other examples showing how species losses affect human health, emphasizing the "one health" movement recognizing ecosystem health as fundamental to human wellbeing. An Australian study found people aged 70+ who listen to or play music regularly had 39% lower dementia rates, though causation remains uncertain. Princeton research shows music activates multiple brain regions simultaneously. Learning instruments increases gray matter, and musical memory remains intact in advanced dementia since it's stored separately from other memories. A caller discusses how modern screen-based activities provide less multisensory engagement than past social experiences like dances. Another caller describes Grover's disease causing persistent itchy skin with no known cause. Dr. Dawn recommends an elimination diet removing common allergens for one month, then reintroducing individually to identify food sensitivities triggering immune responses. Dr. Dawn explains xenotransplantation advances with genetically edited pigs beginning full-scale kidney transplant trials. Companies use CRISPR to disable genes causing immune rejection and insert human genes promoting immune tolerance. With only 10% of global kidney patients receiving organs, these could provide unlimited supply. Other innovations include kidneys with thymus tissue to teach immune tolerance and external pig liver systems as transplant bridges. She concludes noting research showing female dogs remember and prefer humans who demonstrate competence at tasks, while male dogs show no preference.

Today, we're kicking off a new series for Bikes and Big Ideas: we're setting out to identify the best bikes of the 21st century from over 30 brands. We've done a similar series over on our Gear:30 podcast for skis, but that was easy compared to doing the same for bikes.Over the next couple of weeks, you'll be hearing about our choices. We're also including a survey, as we want to hear from you. Additionally, we'll be sending the same survey to some bike industry luminaries, too.Once we've reviewed an array of brands, we'll discuss how our selections align with your answers.And for our grand finale of this series, we're going to offer our choices for the Very Best Bikes of the Century. It may seem like an impossible task, but we're hoping we can agree on a top 10, maybe even a top 3, and if the stars align, one single bike. Or, we may never speak to each other again, but we're willing to take that risk.Part 1 kicks off with Simon Stewart, David Golay, Dylan Wood, and Xan Marshland.Note: We Want to Hear From You!Please let us know if there's a topic you'd like us to cover or a guest you'd like us to have on Bikes and Big Ideas.

Desde pequeno, ele foi incentivado à prática esportiva. Frequentou a escola de esportes do CEPEUSP, nadou, andou de skate e de BMX. Aos nove anos, ingressou no futebol de salão, mas foi no basquete, aos 14, que encontrou sua primeira paixão esportiva. Com o pai, jogava no quintal de casa e, com ele, treinava os fundamentos da modalidade. Jogou na escola, em clubes, e seguiu firme até que chegou o vestibular. No pouco tempo que tinha livre, por praticidade, começou a correr — e foi já na faculdade, cursando Medicina Veterinária na USP, que conheceu o triathlon. Desde então, se encantou pela modalidade e pelas amizades que o esporte proporcionou. De lá pra cá, foram mais de duzentas provas pelo país todo, sendo 50 delas na sua distância favorita, o meio Ironman, e cinco participações no Ironman de Florianópolis. Atento observador, curioso e crítico, manteve durante cerca de quatro anos um blog para falar basicamente sobre o triathlon. No início de 2020, lançou o primeiro episódio do podcast Café com Tri, que durou até fevereiro de 2023. Em setembro deste ano, para a alegria de muita gente, voltou com o podcast. Conosco aqui, o veterinário de formação, diretor comercial por profissão, filho do renomado neurologista e pesquisador Ricardo Nitrini e da pedagoga Roseli, um triatleta de voz e alma: o paulistano Roberto Papa Nitrini.

The Washington Monthly called him as "one of America's most important journalists." The Portland Oregonian said his work equals the original muckrakers: Ida Tarbell, Upton Sinclair and Lincoln Steffens. Johnston met Donald Trump in 1988 and in April 1990 revealed that Trump's was no billionaire. When Trump announced his latest run for the White House in June 2015, Johnston was the only nationally-known journalist who immediately said Trump was serious this time and might get the GOP nomination. His reporting over the next year led to the Making of Donald Trump, published around the world in English and German on August 2, 2016, by Melville House. The San Jose Mercury recruited Johnston when he was just 18 years old because of his reporting for two small weekly newspapers in Santa Cruz, Calif. At age 19 The Mercury hired him as a staff writer. Within weeks his byline made the front page. Over the next four decades his award-winning investigations appeared in that paper, the Detroit Free Press, Los Angeles Times, The Philadelphia Inquirer and The New York Times. Since 2009 Johnston has taught the business regulation, property and tax law of the ancient world at Syracuse University College of Law. He previously taught writing, reporting and magazine writing at the University of Southern California and UCLA Extension. He has lectured on four continents about journalistic techniques, ethics, legal theory and tax policy.
