It's the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2026 series Elaine chats with pervious guest and friend of the pod - writer Emery Schaffer about her new play BearGirl. BEARGIRL Assembly Roxy, Roxy Boxy Dates: Wednesday 5th - Monday 31st August 2026 Time: 4:20pm (60 mins) BearGirl Bear suits, bereavement, and big scary feelings...oh my. Premiering at this year's Edinburgh Festival Fringe is BearGirl - an empowering drama about animal costumes, grief and feminist rage, written by Emery Schaffer (We Used to be Girl Scouts, MONUMENTAL) and directed by Kate Stamoulis. Inspired by Anton Checkhov's The Bear, Bear Girl is a new play about love and hate, desire and guilt, reclaiming yourself when it's all been stripped away, and attempting to make peace with the beast within. Struggling to cope with the death of her husband, a grief-stricken widow unexpectedly finds comfort whilst wearing an oddly sentimental bear suit that reminds her of her lost love. From that day, Bear Girl is born: an unfeeling, thick-skinned beast of a woman who doesn't care that you're staring at her, because she's not really there. Meshing a complicated love affair with the shock of sudden loss, Schaffer's play explores the complex web of weighty emotions that lay within every human going through the worst moment of their life- and what happens when we lose all control of how we ‘should' behave… and start giving into our primal instincts.

Hey Diner Buddies!
We've reached another cool milestone with the "Talking At The Diner" podcast.. we are officially 60 episodes into our mission to amplify the voices and stories of working musicians and creatives. SIXTY! That's five years of monthly conversations that have become a living document of the Philadelphia music community (and beyond). I wanted to do something special for the 5-year anniversary of the show and I can't think of a more appropriate guest than Lisa Schaffer. Perhaps surprisingly, she is not a musician, but for the past two decades, Lisa has been a major presence and force in the scene, first as one of our most prominent music photographers, and since May of 2025, the owner and the face of Vinyl Chickie.. full name Vinyl Chickie (Record Shoppe & Other Delights). Lisa and I met up at the Village Diner in Glenside, just a couple blocks from her record shoppe, and chatted about her NE Philly origins and her life-altering acquisition of the record collection of Pierre Robert, the late legendary WMMR DJ who, for those of us of a certain age, was the single most influential voice of our rock 'n' roll upbringings. What she was able to create, in the way that she lovingly and intentionally distributed Pierre's records to true fans on "Record Shoppe Day" (not to be confused with "Record Store Day".. you'll hear why in when you listen), is a beautiful snapshot of what she does so well.. bringing people together, connecting with and involving her extended community, and maybe ruffling a few feathers of the powers that be while she's at it! I really loved having this conversation and I think you will too!  JKF

In this episode of the Coffee & Questions podcast, I sit down with entrepreneur, speaker, and Founder of Kingdom Alliance, Michelle Schaffer, for one of the most heartfelt conversations we've had on the show.Michelle's entrepreneurial journey spans more than 25 years—from building a thriving career in the beauty industry and earning millions in network marketing to creating a faith-based leadership company centered around purpose, identity, and serving others.One of my favorite takeaways from this conversation is Michelle's perspective on prospecting. Rather than viewing it as selling or convincing people, she challenges us to see prospecting as an opportunity to connect, serve, and build genuine relationships. It's a simple shift in mindset that has the power to completely transform how we approach business.We also dive into the role faith plays in entrepreneurship, why authentic human connection will always outperform automation, and how AI should enhance relationships—not replace them. Michelle shares why becoming a better communicator starts with understanding the person you're speaking to, and how serving first creates stronger businesses, stronger communities, and a greater impact.This episode is a powerful reminder that the best businesses aren't built on transactions—they're built on trust, service, and a genuine desire to help people.Connect with Michelle SchafferWebsite: https://kingdomalliance.com/Connect with Michelle:Website: https://bermanmediapd.com/Instagram: @BermanMediaSocialYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTgG-BvwWOQ_jEYDZ-gKVxQNeed a Dynamic Speaker for an Event or Group?

Send me your thoughts! A surveillance camera catches Brian Schaffer outside a packed Columbus bar at 1:55 a.m. He chats with two women, looks relaxed, turns toward the entrance, and steps out of frame. Then the story stops cooperating. No clear footage of him leaving. No calls to his girlfriend. No spring break flight to Miami. No bank activity. Just a 27-year-old Ohio State medical student who becomes a name on posters and a face frozen in a few seconds of grainy video.We take this case slowly and on purpose, because Brian is a real person and the difference between fact and rumor is the difference between help and harm. We map the Ugly Tuna Saloona and the South Campus Gateway complex, talk about why 2006 surveillance coverage creates the illusion of certainty, and explain how a missing “next step” can trap an investigation for decades. We also zoom out to Brian's life, his grief after losing his mom, his relationship with Alexis, and why emotional context should never be treated like a verdict.From there, we walk through the major theories and the missing evidence each one would require: a missed exit route followed by an accident, possible foul play in a closing-time crowd, the lure and limits of construction-area explanations, the reality behind “the phone rang,” and why polygraph talk tends to generate heat instead of light. We end with the most honest conclusion a cold case allows: we can weigh what's plausible, but we cannot replace uncertainty with a convenient suspect.If you care about careful true crime, unsolved disappearances, and cold case investigation, subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find Brian's story.

Jeff Schaffer, Larry David's longtime creative partner on Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm, joins Obsessed to share behind-the-scenes stories from more than 30 years working with TV's biggest curmudgeon—including what it was really like directing Barack Obama on HBO's Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness, creating the show's most talked-about political sketches, and why Larry's TV wife, Cheryl Hines, doesn't make a cameo. Schaffer also reflects on the Seinfeld reunion, working with stars like Sacha Baron Cohen, Matt Damon, and Jim Carrey, and reveals why he believes Curb Your Enthusiasm really is over for good this time.

Erich Schaffer critiques the “super greenhouse effect” and argues that tropical outgoing longwave radiation stays flat mainly because tropospheric temperature is sluggish relative to surface temperature, not because water vapor amplifies greenhouse trapping. He says regional and seasonal proxies for water vapor feedback are invalid (citing admissions by Ramanathan/Inamdar and Dessler et al.) and claims interannual proxy results are distorted by aspect-ratio choices and improper OLS regression, advocating TLS or rotated-benchmark methods. Reanalyzing published plots (Spencer, Lindzen-Choi, Chung, Andy May), he concludes water vapor plus lapse rate implies strong negative feedback and low ECS (~1 K). He also alleges data “fudging” and broader scientific incompetence.00:00 Super Greenhouse Effect02:20 OLR Calculations Explained03:28 Troposphere Sluggishness05:32 Ramanathan Admission10:23 Feedback Breakdown Math12:37 Two Proxies Debunked14:05 Revisiting Interannual Proxy16:02 Bad Regression Plotting17:16 Aspect Ratio Distortion23:45 OLS vs TLS Regression30:53 Negative Feedback Emerges33:22 Spencer Regression Mystery37:45 Lindzen Choi Critique41:03 Fixing Lindzen Plot51:17 Recent Andy May Example53:21 Rotate Plot Method55:19 Benchmark Slope Trick57:38 Questionable Outliers01:01:26 Proxies Fall Apart01:02:22 Lapse Rate Physics01:05:45 Tropical Hotspot Feedback01:11:10 AR6 Codependency Critique01:14:24 MODTRAN Water Vapor Test01:19:44 Emission Altitudes Explained01:25:22 Net Feedback and ECS01:27:17 Blunders and Sociology01:40:54 Q&A and Takeaway01:44:44 Bonus Coal Math Error01:47:42 Wrap UpErich Schaffer: “Water Vapor Feedback, Part One”: https://youtu.be/2O4mOf9gk-shttps://x.com/erich_schafferhttps://greenhousedefect.com/=========Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summariesMy Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1

Join Tim Johnson and Chris Shipley LIVE from the AKC Andrew Downs Studios for Episode 7.10 of Old Man Strength with Iowa media legend Maxwell Schaffer.From his early days as a pipsqueak in Hershey, Pennsylvania, to becoming a radio staple for over 42 years, Maxwell shares his journey through theater, music, family moves, and building a life in Iowa. They dive into the evolution of radio (from spinning vinyl disco records to digital and AI), the lost art of going out to experience live theater and local music, and what he wants to be when he "grows up" — producing plays and acting.This episode is proudly sponsored by:Revelton Distilling Company, Kyle Lehman at Wintrust Mortgage, US FEX Shipping, Jenny Farrell at REMAX Concepts, Styled by JJ BoutiqueLIVE from the AKC Andrew Downs Studios. Real talk, no filters.

John 15As we look at what it means to live a fruitful life as a believer, it all centers on obedience to Christ in his Word and dependence upon him in prayer. We will break down the idea of fruitfulness into three vital areas: personal character, intentional evangelism, and lasting discipleship. This message challenges us to examine our own lives and consider where we have been unfruitful. 

Pivots That Pay OffA $6,000 loss on a house flip that turns into 11 leads. Four kids in six years while walking construction sites and picking tile. A partnership offer that lands like a “cinder block from heaven.” Sarah Schaffer's story is the kind that makes you rethink what progress looks like when you're a working mom building a business in real estate.We talk about what drives a smart pivot: leaving a comfortable boutique brokerage to join Sotheby's for continued growth, new standards, and the kind of mentorship that changes how you work. Sarah shares how partnering with Anne Shaeffer reshapes her view of time, boundaries, and long-term sustainability in a career where the phone never stops. We also get specific about the practical systems that keep an entrepreneurial household running, from shared calendars to kids learning real responsibility instead of being “managed” 24-7.Then the conversation shifts into what most people don't see: neurodiversity in the family, a late autism diagnosis at 16, dyslexia, and the hard hindsight that comes with connecting the dots later than you wish you had. Sarah's honesty opens up bigger questions about community, support, and how we advocate for our kids and ourselves. We also hold space for deep grief after a sudden family loss, and how faith and the Live Like Gina Foundation help transform pain into purpose.If you're building a real estate career, navigating motherhood identity shifts, or trying to create real work-life balance without burning out, this one will stay with you.

Erich Schaffer argues climate science contains major blunders, chiefly that water vapor cools the planet and provides negative feedback. He explains the greenhouse effect as determined by emission altitude and the adiabatic lapse rate, criticizing older “back radiation” explanations. He claims climate budgets and attribution studies overstate surface emission by assuming Earth's surface is a blackbody, ignoring water's non-Lambertian behavior and ~0.91 hemispheric emissivity, which he says inflates the greenhouse effect and misattributes missing radiation to water vapor. He highlights latent heat cooling and contends empirical “proxy” methods used to infer strong positive water-vapor feedback are invalid due to lapse-rate behavior. He concludes climate sensitivity would drop to ~1 K or less.00:00 Meet Erich Schaffer01:06 Why Climate Basics Matter04:52 Greenhouse Effect Explained07:30 Lapse Rate Physics10:52 IPCC Definition Shift12:38 Debunking Back Radiation16:04 Cloud Window Mistake19:25 Latent Heat Cooling20:40 Who Causes Warming31:04 Reading the Spectrum33:46 What CO2 Forcing Means37:03 Deriving 3.7 Wm241:41 Water Vapor Feedback Setup45:35 Models vs Observations46:57 Empirical Feedback Proxies51:10 Calculating Feedback From Slopes54:16 Super Greenhouse Tropics Claim56:52 Lapse Rate Versus Water Vapor58:45 Moist Adiabats And Latent Cooling01:00:58 Clouds Versus Water Vapor Paradox01:05:21 Water Reflectivity And Polar Amplification01:09:55 Infrared Emissivity Of Water01:15:01 Surface Emissions Overstated01:21:16 Reattributing The Greenhouse Effect01:28:30 Thought Experiments Removing Water Vapor01:34:26 Why Regional Proxy Fails01:40:24 Seasonal Proxy Broken By Inversions01:44:37 Sluggish Troposphere Explains Slopes01:49:33 Wrap Up And Next Partshttps://x.com/erich_schafferhttps://greenhousedefect.com/=========Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summariesMy Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1

Send us Fan Mail This episode discusses childhood trauma, grief, and emotional healing. If any part of this conversation touches something personal for you, please know that support is available. Reach out to a trusted adult, counsellor, or a mental health helpline.   What if the struggles we see in teenagers today are not just about school stress or social media, but echoes of stories that began much earlier in childhood? And what if the silence around those early experiences is precisely what shapes the anxiety, self-doubt, and emotional patterns we carry into adult life? Stacy Schaffer, a licensed professional counselor with over two decades of experience working with children, teens, and young adults, joins Sayan on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life for a conversation that is raw, compassionate, and long overdue. Drawing on her book With Love from a Children's Therapist and her own lived journey through grief and healing, Stacy explores how unspoken childhood experiences shape identity, what parents and caregivers can watch for, and why the most powerful thing any adult can offer a struggling child is not advice, but space to be heard. ABOUT THE GUEST: Stacy Schaffer, MA, LPC is a licensed professional counselor, founder of Strong Hearts Counseling in Arvada, Colorado, and the author of With Love from a Children's Therapist: #lessonsihavelearnedalongtheway (2025). With over twenty years of experience specialising in childhood grief, trauma, and Synergetic Play Therapy, she also leads youth and family programs at The Refuge, a community healing center. Her book weaves together her personal story and professional insight into a guide for anyone navigating childhood wounds or supporting a young person through them. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Childhood experiences do not disappear with time. What goes unprocessed tends to surface later, often sideways, in how people relate, connect, and feel about themselves. There is no universal checklist of warning signs in children. The most important thing a parent or caregiver can do is deeply know their child's baseline, so they can recognise what is different. The concept of masking matters. Children who appear high-performing or "fine on the outside" may be carrying significant emotional weight that simply has not surfaced yet. Play is not trivial. For children, play is language. Modalities like Sand Tray therapy offer a way to express what words cannot reach. Doing your own inner work is the best gift you can give the young people in your life. Unhealed experiences in caregivers directly affect their capacity to hold space for a child's pain. What struggling children and adults need most is not to be fixed. They need space to be heard, without interruption, without feedback, without advice, unless they ask.

Joseph Schaefer arrived in Canada from Poland in the 1930s and built his career in Montreal's garment district at a time when the industry ran on instinct, relationships, and trust. He had an eye for fashion, a gift for reading people, and a way of doing business that set him apart early.In this episode of Big Shot, Joseph joins hosts Harley and David to reflect on how he found his way into the garment trade and helped shape what Chabanel would become. He shares how he built partnerships that lasted decades, why he never lost a partner, and how he gave others ownership long before equity was common practice.This is a story about a different era of entrepreneurship—one where deals were built on reputation, capital came through relationships, and success depended on understanding both the product and the people behind it. Joseph also reflects on what's changed, why that kind of success is harder to replicate today, and the role his values and faith played in how he built his life and business.—In This Episode We Cover:(00:00) Intro(01:06) Early days after immigrating to Canada(03:10) How Joseph got his start in entrepreneurship(07:38) Learning the craft with help from his sister(09:55) When he brought on salespeople(11:27) How he built Chabanel(14:20) Joseph's approach to capital and equity(18:16) How Joseph won over banks(22:24) Why Joseph's success wouldn't be repeatable in today's market(25:45) How Joseph managed partnerships(29:00) Joseph's legacy(31:52) Joseph's advice for young entrepreneurs(32:50) His relationship with the Bronfmans(35:20) The role of faith in his life—Where To Find Big Shot: • Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.bigshot.show/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠• YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@bigshotpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  • TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@bigshotshow⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠• Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/bigshotshow/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  • Harley Finkelstein: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://twitter.com/harleyf⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ • David Segal: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://twitter.com/tea_maverick⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠• Production and Marketing: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://penname.co⁠

This hour Henry chats up WCCO TV Chief Meteorologist Chris Schaffer about this weekend's snow storm,we have a Scoreboard, and This Day In Sports History.

In hour 2 of The Drive, Zach and Phil continue their conversation on Mike Evans calling out Gabe Landeskog for underachieving. Is it fair to call Landeskog underachieving after a slow start and missing so much time this season? We pivot the Broncos and look at the running back market as David Montgomery was traded this week, Breece Hall was franchise tagged by the Jets, and Kenneth Walker not getting tagged by the Seahawks. Will the Broncos be big spenders at running back, paying someone $8 million or more per year? Today's "Three Count" includes Brennan Marion's comments on the Buffs after their first practice after the death of Dominiq Ponder, Rob Walton reportedly buying a 10% stake in the Diamondbacks 2 years ago, and the Colts placing a transition tag on Daniel Jones. We react to Rockies' Paul Depodesta's comments on why Schaffer was the right hire for their manager and raising the floor of the team by bringing in veterans. 

In hour 4 of The Drive, Zach and Phil continue their conversation on Mike Evans' criticism of Gabe Landeskog and his underachieving this season. We pivot to the Broncos as NFL free agency kicks off in less than a week. We look at the running back market as David Montgomery was traded this week, Breece Hall was franchise tagged by the Jets, and Kenneth Walker not getting tagged by the Seahawks. We hear from Mike Klis and his thoughts on the Broncos wanting JK Dobbins back in 2026. Would Dobbins be willing to take a backseat in the Broncos running back room? Could Ben Powers be a cut or trade candidate as he heads into the last year of his contract? We react to Rockies' Paul Depodesta's comments on why Schaffer was the right hire for their manager and raising the floor of the team by bringing in veterans. We wrap up the show with DenverSports.com's Will Petersen joining the show to discuss Mike Evans' criticism of Gabe Landeskog this season. 

Since it was first announced in 2018, the park that would eventually become known as Six Flags Qiddiya City has fascinated theme park fans and coaster enthusiasts around the world. Now that the park is open, we're still fascinated, but we also have the ability to talk to people who have visited the park now that's officially open. Andrew is joined this week on the podcast by Scott Schaffer (CoasterForce, Upstop Media) and Hunter Hernandez (Theme Park Hunting on YouTube), who visited Six Flags Qiddiya City in early February as part of a wider Middle Eastern theme park trip. Of course, we talk all things Falcon's Flight - the world's tallest, fastest, and longest roller coaster - but also about the rest of the park's roller coasters, attractions, food and more. We also talk briefly about what it was like to film a POV on Falcon's Flight - watch Scott's POV video filmed for CoasterForce by clicking here! You can connect with the show by hitting us up on social media @Coaster101: Facebook  |  Twitter  |  Instagram.

Teen pain often wants proof, and too many families discover self-harm the hardest way—by finding the evidence. Dr. Amy sits down with returning guest Stacy Schaffer, a licensed professional counselor, to unpack non-suicidal self-injury with clarity and care. We name what NSSI is and isn't, explore why it seems to provide fast relief to hurting teens, and talk through what to do the moment a teen opens up. You'll hear how shame keeps kids silent, how calm presence invites honesty, and why a clear plan beats punishment every time.We dig into real-world guidance for parents, coaches, and teachers: how to thank a teen for their trust, offer choices for bringing caregivers into the conversation, and separate safety steps from secrecy-inducing consequences. Stacy explains the addictive loop—dopamine, relief, and reinforcement—that can build around cutting or burning, and how speaking to a teen's own values and near-future moments (prom, summer jobs, sports uniforms) often lands better than distant warnings. We also highlight the long tail of scars and how regret can surface even after the behavior stops.Most importantly, we share practical tools to bridge the urges: sensory substitutions like sour candy, ice, and specialized fidgets that create safe discomfort; 15-minute “urge surfing” to let intensity pass; and when tracking “sober days” can motivate rather than shame. We cover safety planning—locking up sharps without locking down trust—and the power of a supportive circle of adults beyond the home. Throughout, we keep the focus on curiosity over judgment and parenting the child you have in today's always-watched, always-connected world.If this resonates, subscribe, share with a friend who needs it, and leave a quick review.

Mike Evans and Brandon Stokley with Mark Schlereth open the fourth hour talking about RB’s after the Broncos showed interest in Dameon Pierce and whether there are warning signs for the RB stable in Denver. The guys try to pinpoint how to fix all of the penalties the Broncos commit, with one particular player in mind. Aaron Gordon has been banged up lately but there is a young buck who is showing that there may be life after Mister Nugget. Stoke was bummed out that he wasn’t on the Manningcast but apparently, he still got a shout out. The Morning Crew cap off today’s show venting about the Warren Schaffer hire. 

Teens today live at the intersection of real mental health risks and viral misused language like gaslighting, narcissism, and DID. On this episode of The Brainy Moms podcast, Dr. Amy sat down with children's therapist Stacy Schaffer to unpack how parents can support mental health without turning every rough patch into a diagnosis. Stacy shares the story behind her new book and the core idea that guides her work: integrate tough histories into practical, present-day tools so kids feel seen, safe, and capable.We dig into the messy middle of modern childhood—where TikTok trends meet group-chat drama and where grooming, exclusion, and “subtle” cruelty often fly under the bullying radar. Stacy offers concrete steps for delaying social platforms, keeping an open pulse on online connections, and having frank, age-appropriate talks about consent, safety, and the law. We also explore why framing therapy as a gift changes everything, and how to invite teens into the process so they feel respected rather than “sent.”A big theme is language. Words like trauma, gaslighting, narcissist, and DID carry weight and meaning; when they get stretched to cover discomfort or disagreement, everyone loses clarity. Stacy walks us through what those terms actually mean, when they apply, and how to teach kids a simple 1–10 scale that builds perspective without dismissing pain. We also clarify dissociation versus dissociative identity disorder and offer scripts that keep compassion high while holding responsibility steady: “You're in charge of all your parts.”Along the way, we talk about modeling healthy conflict at home, building emotion regulation, and helping kids collect “data” from hard moments they survived. If you've wondered how to respond when your teen throws out a buzzword, how to know when it's time for counseling, or how to keep kids safer online, this conversation delivers calm, clear guidance you can use today.About Stacy SchafferStacy Schaffer is a Licensed Professional Counselor with over twenty years of experience helping children, teens, and young adults navigate emotional and behavioral challenges.

In this solosode of The Energy Code, Dr. Mike unveils the most comprehensive update yet to BioLight's flagship supplement — BioBlue — and takes listeners deep inside the quantum bioenergetic thinking that shaped its redesign. What began as a methylene-blue-based mitochondrial catalyst has evolved into a next-generation longevity systemintegrating deuterium-depleted water, elevated NMN, taurine, and trace gold-silver resonance compounds.   Dr. Mike breaks down the science and reasoning behind each refinement: why Litewater's 10 ppm deuterium-depleted water now forms the clean matrix for all BioBlue liquids, how NMN has been increased ten-fold (10 mg → 100 mg) to meaningfully expand NAD⁺ pools and drive biogenesis, and how taurine stabilizes mitochondrial membranes and calcium signaling for endurance and resilience. He explains the subtle yet powerful tweaks — like a 50 % increase in colloidal gold and silver and a 40 % reduction in fulvic acid — that sharpen redox coherence and enhance longevity signaling.   Dr. Mike dives into: Overview of how BioBlue progressed from a simple methylene-blue solution to a full mitochondrial optimization system. Why all BioBlue liquids now utilizes Litewater for cleaner proton flow and improved ATP efficiency. Why NMN increased from 10 mg → 100 mg per dose to meaningfully raise NAD⁺ levels, drive biogenesis, and enhance DNA repair. Why the addition of Taurine – 100 mg per serving for membrane stability, calcium regulation, and long-term mitochondrial resilience. Enhanced Trace Elements – 50 % more colloidal gold & silver plus refined fulvic acid for smoother redox flow and higher photodynamic efficiency.   This episode isn't just about formulation — it's about why every molecule matters in the pursuit of mitochondrial efficiency, redox stability, and long-term cellular youthfulness. Mike also previews BioLight's upcoming new website, pre-Black-Friday event, and a soon-to-launch BioBlue Lite product line for those seeking simplicity without compromise.   Key Topics Covered Evolution of BioBlue — from the original methylene blue + NMN formula to a comprehensive mitochondrial optimization system. Integration of Deuterium-Depleted Water (Litewater, 10 ppm) — explanation of how lowering deuterium enhances ATP production, redox efficiency, and longevity potential. NMN Upgrade (10× Increase) — new 100 mg per serving dosage for boosting NAD⁺ levels, mitochondrial biogenesis, DNA repair, and energy metabolism. Addition of Taurine (100 mg per serving) — supports membrane integrity, calcium balance, ROS buffering, and cellular longevity signaling. Enhanced Colloidal Gold & Silver (50 % Increase) — improved redox stability, electron flow, and photodynamic synergy with methylene blue and red light. Refined Wu Jin Sun Fulvic Acid (−40 %) — optimizes redox balance and mineral transport while improving synergy between all active compounds. Comprehensive Mitochondrial Benefits — improved ATP efficiency, autophagy, and mitochondrial biogenesis for cleaner, more resilient energy production. New Product Lineup — introduction of BioBlue Lite and BioBlue Leuco Lite (simplified methylene blue + water versions) for accessible mitochondrial support. Key Quotes from Dr. Mike   “Deuterium-depleted water doesn't just make the mitochondria go faster—it helps them run truer, cleaner, and more efficiently.”   “We've moved BioBlue from a trace metabolic nudge to a real mitochondrial optimization protocol that supports redox cycling, biogenesis, and longevity pathways in a quantifiable way.”   “Taurine turns BioBlue from a fast-acting energy compound into a cellular longevity stack—supporting repair, recycling, and resilience.”   “By increasing colloidal gold and silver within their optimal bio-signal zones, BioBlue transforms from a chemical redox supplement into a biophysical energy transducer.”   “Each change — from Litewater to taurine — was made to help your mitochondria run longer, cleaner, and more accurately. This is longevity through bioenergetics.” Episode Timeline 00:00 – Announcements: Pre-Black Friday + new website 04:00 – The origin of BioBlue and its evolution 10:00 – Introducing the upgraded BioBlue formula 11:00 – Why BioLight partnered with Light Water 12:00 – How deuterium slows mitochondrial ATP production 17:00 – Functional benefits of deuterium-depleted water 19:00 – 10x increase in NMN for energy and repair 27:00 – Synergy between NMN and methylene blue 30:00 – Adding taurine for stability and longevity 39:00 – Increasing colloidal gold for photonic synergy 46:00 – Boosting colloidal silver for redox protection 52:00 – Why lowering fulvic acid improves coherence 56:00 – What's next: BioBlue Light + legacy pricing offer 01:02:00 – Dr. Mike's closing thoughts on mitochondrial optimization Resources & References Deuterium Depletion and Mitochondrial Efficiency Boros, L.

Transitions are inevitable. Whether it's becoming a parent, shifting careers, retiring, or simply navigating unexpected change. But why do transitions feel so unsettling, and how can we meet them with more self-compassion and patience?In this episode of Grow the Good, I sit down with my friend and fellow MAPP grad, Ilene Schaffer, to explore the psychology of transitions. With more than 25 years of experience in counseling psychology, Ilene shares her wisdom on navigating endings, sitting with uncertainty in the “neutral zone,” and creating intentional new beginnings.We talk about what it means to let go of old identities, how to clarify your non-negotiables, and why patience and self-compassion are the keys to moving through life's changes with resilience.Top 5 Takeaways:Self-compassion is essential in transitions, whether the change is chosen or not.The “neutral zone” between endings and beginnings is where reflection and growth take place.Defining non-negotiables helps guide decisions during uncertain times.Patience is vital; most transitions take 6–9 months to fully adjust.Fulfillment isn't about balance, it's about intentional choices aligned with your values.Tune in to learn more from Ilene, and hopefully, approach your next transition with a little bit more ease. --------------The Grow the Good Podcast is produced by Palm Tree Pod Co.

In the spring of 2006, 27-year-old Ohio State medical student Brian Shaffer walked into a popular Columbus bar called the Ugly Tuna Saloona, and was never seen again.
