Awe?! You can study this? You can, and it turns out it's really important for our mental health. Dr. Dacher Keltner, the legendary UC Berkeley psychology professor, author, and founding director of the Greater Good Science Center, lent us some time to chat about his research into what makes us feel awe, and how that sense of vastness can make our lives and relationships richer. From spending some time under starry skies, to walking past ancient ruins, to listening to a favorite song, these big and little moments can help us feel smaller in the best way. Also: hop into a mosh pit.  Visit Dr. Keltner's website Buy his book, Awe: The New Science of Everyday Wonder and How It Can Transform Your Life, on Bookshop.org or Amazon Listen to his series, Cities of Awe, on the Science of Happiness podcast A donation went to the Bay Area Freedom Collective More episode sources and links Other episodes you may enjoy: Eudemonology (HAPPINESS), Awesomeology (GRATITUDE FOR LITTLE THINGS), Molecular Neurobiology (BRAIN CHEMICALS), Psychedeliology (HALLUCINOGENS), Museology (MUSEUMS), Fanthropology (FANDOM), FIELD TRIP: I Chase the 2024 Eclipse with Umbraphiles, FIELD TRIP: How to Change Your Life via the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles 400+ Ologies episodes sorted by topic Smologies (short, classroom-safe) episodes Sponsors of Ologies Transcripts and bleeped episodes Become a patron of Ologies for as little as a buck a month OlogiesMerch.com has hats, shirts, hoodies, totes!

Colonel Eileen Collins was the first woman to pilot and command a Space Shuttle, and the person NASA trusted to lead the program back into space after the loss of Columbia. But her story is about so much more than the milestones. In this episode, Sarah Al-Ahmed sits down with Eileen Collins to discuss “Spacewoman,” a new documentary written and directed by Hannah Berryman, based on Collins' book “Through the Glass Ceiling to the Stars: The Story of the First American Woman to Command a Space Mission.” They talk about what drove her to keep pushing forward, the personal cost of pursuing an extraordinary career, and what it means to break barriers, not just for yourself, but for everyone who comes after you. Then, Bruce Betts, our Chief Scientist, joins us for What's Up to explore what distinguished pilots and commanders from mission specialists in the space shuttle era, and why that distinction was so critical to Eileen's path to the commander's seat.

866. The market is suddenly full of products claiming to prevent or even reverse gray hair — not by dyeing it, but by actually changing what's happening inside the hair follicle. Some of these serums, supplements, and "anti-gray systems" are backed by genuinely interesting science. Others are getting way ahead of the evidence. Today, Monica breaks down the biology of why hair goes gray, what ingredients show the most promise (and for whom), and which products are banking more on your hope than on clinical proof.

Have you ever wondered how to enjoy your favorite carbohydrates without completely ruining your fat-loss progress or crashing your energy levels halfway through the day? This episode compiles previous interviews regarding how to fuel the body, burn fat, and use carbohydrates. Rachel Gregory shares her transition from keto to reintroducing carbohydrates to fuel training and performance. Robert Sikes explains how adherence to keto develops metabolic machinery. I share my framework on carb back-loading to manage glycogen stores. Consuming carbohydrates post-workout and at dinner keeps blood sugar from spiking, maintains fat adaptation, and shifts the body into a rest state. Keeping carbohydrates under 100 grams lets you utilize fat for energy during the day and use carbohydrates for recovery. Key takeaways Metabolic flexibility allows your body to burn fat for energy during low-impact activities and seamlessly switch to burning carbohydrates during workouts. Becoming fat-adapted typically requires a minimum of three to four weeks in a low-carbohydrate state. Reintroducing carbohydrates should be done slowly, prioritizing sources like potatoes, rice, and fruits over processed foods. Carb back-loading involves eating your carbohydrates post-workout and at dinner to replenish muscle glycogen without storing it as fat. Consuming carbohydrates in the evening helps transition the nervous system into a parasympathetic, rest-and-digest state for sleep. Strict adherence to a single dietary protocol like keto can maximize the efficiency of your body's metabolic machinery. A low-carbohydrate lifestyle can be defined as consuming under 100 grams of carbohydrates per day.

Beau Martonik sits down with Bill Vanderheyden of Iron Will Outfitters — 10 years of engineering broadheads and arrow systems built around what a setup actually needs to do when conditions are not perfect. They open with Bill's Colorado elk hunt — 10 miles back in the wilderness, a 4-hour chase into dark timber, and a frontal shot at 30 yards through a 3-inch window in the pines. From there the conversation gets into the science behind why that shot worked and what most hunters are getting wrong before they ever get to a moment like that. Topics include what actually makes a bow setup forgiving in hunting conditions, why FOC doesn't tell you what most people think, the physics of penetration and the speed vs. heavy arrow debate, why mechanicals on elk are a bigger risk than most realize, steep shot angles, effective range, and how to practice the shots that actually show up in the field. 00:00:00 – Intro 00:04:37 – Colorado Elk Hunt — 10 Miles Back, Frontal Shot Through the Pines 00:21:41 – Pin Setup and Shot Confidence in the Field 00:24:24 – Bighorn Sheep Hunt — Steep Cliffs, No Rangefinder, 55 Yards 00:34:10 – What Actually Makes a Hunting Setup Forgiving 00:44:42 – Penetration Physics — Momentum, Arrow Flight, and Blade Geometry 00:57:13 – Why Mechanicals on Elk Are a Risk Most Hunters Underestimate 01:02:29 – FOC — What the Number Actually Tells You and What It Doesn't 01:10:15 – Whitetail vs. Western Setup — How Much Actually Needs to Change 01:14:20 – Moving Deer and Shot Timing 01:25:05 – Steep Shot Angles — Tree Stand and Mountain Scenarios 01:32:55 – Holding Under Pressure and Practicing Real Scenarios 01:41:21 – Effective Range — How to Actually Define It for Your Setup 01:47:42 – The Iron Will Wide Broadhead on Elk 01:51:36 – Axis Deer Hunt in Hawaii — Setup Considerations 01:54:58 – Closing + Where to Find Iron Will Instagram:   ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@eastmeetswesthunt⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@beau.martonik⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Facebook:   ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠East Meets West Outdoors⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Shop Hunting Gear and Apparel: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.eastmeetswesthunt.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ YouTube: Beau Martonik - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQJon93sYfu9HUMKpCMps3w⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Partner Discounts and Affiliate Links: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.eastmeetswesthunt.com/partners⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Poncho Outdoors - Poncho Outdoors makes tough, sharp-looking, no-BS apparel for hardworking outdoorsmen who put in the time year-round.

In this episode of the Growth Now Movement, I reconnect with entrepreneur and visionary builder Chuck Balsamo for the first time in five years, and this conversation dives deep into productivity, focus, entrepreneurship, family, legacy, and the systems required to build something truly meaningful. Chuck shares what life has looked like during the last several years of building new ventures, staying intensely focused on growth, and learning how to protect both his energy and his time while still showing up for the people who matter most. We talk extensively about the importance of building "fortresses" of productivity by intentionally designing environments that reduce distraction, minimize decision fatigue, and create opportunities for deep work. Chuck explains how time blocking, routines, boundaries, and intentional calendar management have become essential tools for both business success and personal peace. Drawing from concepts popularized by Daniel H. Pink around willpower, discipline, and habits, Chuck breaks down why most people fail to protect their focus and how entrepreneurs can create systems that allow them to perform at a higher level consistently without burning out. One of the most powerful parts of this conversation is Chuck's perspective on legacy. As his businesses have grown, he's become increasingly aware that every "yes" comes at the expense of something else, often time with family. We discuss the emotional realities of entrepreneurship, the tradeoffs that come with ambition, and why saying "no" is one of the most important skills anyone can develop. Chuck also introduces his newest venture, uSpace, a premium backyard remote workspace designed to create an undistracted environment for focused work, creativity, and productivity. He shares the origin story behind the company, the inspiration for the design, pricing and financing options, tax and ROI considerations, and his long-term vision for scaling the business into a potentially billion-dollar brand. We also talk about: The "sprinter mindset" for work productivity Why environment shapes performance How distraction is quietly destroying creativity Why one great idea can completely change your life The importance of protecting mental space Entrepreneurship and ego Health scares that shifted Chuck's perspective on life and empathy This episode is packed with practical insights for entrepreneurs, creators, executives, remote workers, parents, and anyone trying to create more focus, balance, and intentionality in their life. In This Episode, You Will Learn: How Chuck Balsamo structures his days for maximum productivity Why creating a distraction-free environment matters The power of time blocking and hard boundaries How to reduce decision fatigue and improve focus Why saying "no" is critical for long-term success The emotional tradeoffs entrepreneurs face How environment impacts performance and creativity The origin story behind uSpace Why focused work in short bursts is more effective How health scares changed Chuck's perspective on life and legacy Timestamps 00:00 Chuck Returns 01:19 Five Years of Building Behind the Scenes 04:39 Calendars, Time Blocking, and Focus 15:50 The Science of Timing, Habits, and Willpower 21:24 Building "Fortress" Environments for Productivity 25:34 How One Great Idea Can Change Everything 30:18 Ego, Purpose, and Entrepreneurship 32:21 The Sprinter Mindset for Work 41:42 Family, Community, and Balance 48:35 Success Habits and Protecting Space 53:58 Growth Through Health Scares 56:33 Gratitude and Final Thoughts

Does science lead us away from God—or toward him? In this episode of the Truth Changes Everything podcast, Rodger Price shares how a lifelong interest in science unexpectedly led him from agnosticism to Christian faith. Drawing from his book Faith and Physics Uncovered: The Compelling Relationship Between Timeless Faith and Modern Physics, Rodger explains why scientific discovery doesn't diminish belief in God but can actually deepen it. Together, we explore how the wonders of the universe raise profound questions about reality, purpose, truth, and the existence of a Creator. From the vastness of space to the mysteries of light and the nature of reality itself, Rodger shows how science can serve as a powerful bridge to conversations about faith and the gospel. In this conversation, you'll discover: • How studying science led Rodger Price from agnosticism to Christianity • Why science and faith are not enemies • What the universe reveals about God and creation • How scientific discoveries can strengthen belief in a Creator • Why the Bible's extraordinary claims may be more reasonable than many people assume • How science can help Christians engage skeptics and seekers • The relationship between truth, evidence, and faith • Why the gospel remains essential in an age of scientific advancement Rodger Price is a leadership development expert based in Holland, Michigan. Once an agnostic, he embarked on a journey through science that ultimately led him to embrace Christian faith. Today, he combines leadership training, scientific curiosity, and biblical insight to help others think more deeply about life's biggest questions. Summit Ministries equips students, parents, and mentors to embrace a biblical worldview and live out their faith with confidence. Learn more at:

The egg that will ovulate three months from now is starting to mature right now. In this solo episode, Michelle dives into one of the most hopeful conversations in fertility: the 90 day window of egg development. Both ancient wisdom and modern science agree that what you do during this window can directly influence the quality of the egg that eventually releases. Michelle walks you through what's actually happening inside your ovaries during those three months, bridges the modern research on mitochondria with the Chinese medicine concepts of Jing and Blood, and shares the five practical pillars she uses with her patients to support egg quality from the inside out. Whether you're trying to conceive naturally, preparing for IVF, or thinking about your fertility for the future, this episode is a foundational one. You have far more influence over your fertility than you've ever been told, and this episode shows you exactly how to work with your body during the window that matters most. Key Takeaways: • Egg development spans roughly a 90 day window, and the environment of your body during those three months directly shapes the quality of the egg that ovulates. • Eggs are the most mitochondria-rich cells in the body, which is why mitochondrial health is the foundation of egg quality. • The Chinese medicine concepts of Jing (essence) and Blood are describing the same phenomenon modern research calls mitochondrial health and ovarian blood flow. • Pillar 1 — Nourish with real food: prioritize protein, healthy fats, antioxidant-rich vegetables, iron-rich foods, and warming cooked meals. • Pillar 2 — Protect your mitochondria: CoQ10 (ideally Ubiquinol), omega 3s, consistent 7 to 9 hours of sleep, and personalized supplementation under a practitioner's guidance. • Pillar 3 — Support blood flow: acupuncture, gentle movement, abdominal massage (like Mayan or Arvigo), warmth over the lower belly and back, and no ice water around your cycle. • Pillar 4 — Regulate your nervous system: extended exhale breath work, time in nature, reduced screen time, pockets of silence. You cannot out-supplement a dysregulated nervous system. • Pillar 5 — Reduce your toxic load: swap plastic for glass, upgrade skincare and cleaning products, eat organic from the dirty dozen, filter water, and skip handling receipts. • Your body is asking for partnership, not perfection. One day does not make or break an egg; a pattern of loving care over 90 days is what shapes the environment.

You're caught between two terrors: gaining weight and staying exactly where you are forever. You've spent years in a disordered mind with disordered thoughts creating disordered behaviors. You'll do anything to break free, but you're trying to HAVE recovery while still BEING the trapped version of yourself. Today we're flipping the script with the Be-Do-Have formula that makes recovery inevitable. In this transformational episode, you'll discover: Why most people have recovery backwards (and why it keeps them stuck) The science-backed Be-Do-Have formula that doubles success rates How to BE recovered before you feel recovered The identity shift that changes everything automatically Why staying where you are is actually scarier than changing How to stop starving for your old life and start living as your new self For the woman ready to stop settling for survival and start choosing to thrive. THE BACKWARDS APPROACH THAT KEEPS YOU STUCK Most people think: "When I HAVE food freedom, then I'll DO recovery behaviors, then I'll BE recovered." Research from Stephen Covey and modern neuroscience proves this backwards. The truth: You must BE the person you want to become, DO what she does, then you'll HAVE what you want. Dr. James Clear's identity research shows: People who say "I am someone who nourishes my body" have 40% higher success rates than those who say "I want to eat better." THE BE-DO-HAVE FORMULA IN RECOVERY BE: The woman who trusts her body completely DO: Eat without negotiation, rest without guilt, take up space HAVE: Food freedom, body peace, mental clarity BE: The woman who values nourishment over control DO: Choose pasta at dinner, have birthday cake, skip gym when tired HAVE: Energy, joy, presence in your own life The scary part: You start BEING her before you feel ready, before you see results, before it feels natural.

In this cozy, chaos-filled episode, we're diving into the magic of crafting by hand and why creativity can feel so healing. We talk about how knitting, crochet, journaling, and other repetitive crafts can help regulate the nervous system, create “flow states,” and even become a form of low-effort spellwork.We also share how we personally infuse intention into handmade pieces, work with color magic while crafting, and use creativity as a tool for self-trust, processing emotions, and slowing down in a world obsessed with instant gratification. Along the way, we chat about craft trances, ADHD hobbies, ritualizing the creative process, and why every stitch really can hold magic.Whether you're a lifelong artist or someone convinced you're “not creative,” this episode is your invitation to make something imperfect, meaningful, and magical.Check out Elyse at upupandcrochet.com and on Etsy and don't forget to use code MAGIC15 for 15% off at checkout.Order Molly's book Mundane Magic A Lazy Witch's Guide to Hacking Your Brain, Building a Daily Practice, and Getting Stuff DoneJoin our Patreon for bonus episodes, magical downloads, and unhinged side quests: https://www.patreon.com/demystifymagic

Becky Pferdehirt, CEO of Emeryville, CA-based Radial, the life sciences unit of Astera Institute, on reimagining biology to take advantage of advances in AI.

In this episode Garth interviews Lisa Diamond from the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, UT. They discuss teacher-centric talks on sexuality and gender amid heightened scrutiny and safety concerns for instructors and students, especially as anti-DEI laws have eliminated campus resource centers, and classrooms may be the only remaining gathering places for marginalized students. Lisa believes that textbooks quickly become outdated and that psychology must be taught as an evolving social science with imperfect methods and shifting lenses. She emphasizes that humans are spectrum-based but prone to flawed categories; identity labels can be personally, socially, and politically meaningful yet differ from scientific groupings. She traces how research categories historically excluded bisexual and non-binary people and notes that large-scale data revealed bisexuality as a majority pattern within LGBTQ populations. They discuss how algorithms and social media fuel polarized realities, and Lisa advocates using discomfort awareness, empathy, in-person dialogue, and structured student interactions to counter bias and teach through controversy.

En 1971, los biólogos Roger Payne y Scott McVay publicaron en la revista Science que cada ballena jorobada posee un canto propio, irreproducible por cualquier otro individuo de la especie. Es decir, en millones de kilómetros de océano, cada ballena es reconocible por su voz particular. La creación misma parece diseñada con una identidad individual.

G.K. Chesterton once observed that after learning to do a great many clever things, the next great task would be learning not to do them. That line, from an early essay on Queen Victoria, has taken on new force as American schools reverse decades of tech-first policies—test scores and students' mental health alike in decline. In this episode, Joe and Grettelyn trace the screen crisis back to first principles, exploring how Chesterton's warnings against educational fads, his conviction that machines make us like machines, and his insistence that a thing worth doing is worth doing badly all speak directly to what Jonathan Haidt's data is now confirming.  In This Episode: The G.K. Chesterton quote from Varied Types that frames the whole conversation—and why his intuition about educational tinkering was more than a hunch How the Chesterton Schools Network's longstanding tech-light philosophy has been vindicated by over 15 years of data, a UNESCO report, and the Fortune magazine story that started this episode What Chesterton's insight about machines making us like machines explains about the neuroscience of distraction—and why phone-free classrooms alone aren't enough Why G.K. Chesterton's principle that a thing worth doing is worth doing badly is the most important counter-argument to AI in education and the arts Practical steps for parents: building social pacts with other families, the case for delaying smartphones, and the Chesterton Schools Network as a proven alternative Chapters: 00:00: Welcome and Introduction 01:15: The Chesterton Schools Network's Tech-Light Philosophy 03:38: G.K.

The residue your crops leave behind is going to impact next season's crop whether you think about it or not.   Too much residue can create challenges like disease pressure and poor planting conditions. Too little can leave topsoil exposed. Managed properly, crop residue can help build soil health, support better planting conditions and cycle nutrients back into the soil.   So how should we think about managing it? Dr. Cassidy Million, VP of Science at BW Fusion, joins us to explore why residue management is becoming increasingly important, the ROI it can provide and what growers can do to support residue breakdown in the field.   Looking for the latest in crop nutrition research?

Have you ever wondered why your body produces symptoms like fever, inflammation, or mucus — and whether suppressing them is always the right answer? In this episode of the Science of Self-Healing, we explore Homotoxicology, a branch of bioregulatory medicine developed by German physician Dr. Hans-Heinrich Reckeweg that views illness as the body's intelligent attempt to eliminate toxins and restore balance. We walk through the Six Stages of Disease — Excretion, Reaction, Deposition, Impregnation, Degeneration, and Dedifferentiation — and explain how the body progresses from healthy acute responses toward chronic cellular dysfunction when its detoxification systems become overwhelmed. You'll come away with a deeper understanding of what your symptoms may actually be communicating, why early intervention matters, and how supporting your body's natural regulatory systems can make a profound difference in your long-term health. Whether you are navigating a chronic condition, supporting a patient, or simply curious about a more systems-based view of health and disease, this episode offers a compelling new lens through which to understand the human body.

Revolution Medicines continues to impress with more pancreatic cancer data, earning a standing ovation at ASCO over the weekend. On the latest BioCentury This Week podcast, BioCentury's analysts discuss the detailed data for the company's daraxonrasib, Akeso's Harmoni-6 readout, as well as other results from the meeting. BioCentury's analysts then argue that U.S. biotech executives and policymakers should embrace the challenges and opportunities that come with the rise of innovation in China — rather than sticking their heads in the sand. They also discuss why leaders of the U.S.'s biggest drug companies should use their influence to stop an OMB proposal that threatens the foundations of U.S. science.

Iron Radio: Do Supplements Beat Food for Vitamin Status? Wearable Food-Tracking Glasses + HDL, Exercise & Depression On Iron Radio, hosts Dr. Lonnie Lowery, Dr. Mike T. Nelson, and Coach Phil Stevens discuss Nelson's Flex Diet Certification and how supplementation topics are integrated due to time constraints, plus his creatine research PDF. They review a new NHANES-based paper (Sternberg et al., May 2026) suggesting supplement use explains more variability in vitamin biomarkers (R² ~3–21%) than reported dietary intake (~0.8–8.8%), while noting limitations like recall bias, low explained variance, and imperfect biomarkers. They then examine a 2021 AIM2 wearable device that detects eating episodes and captures food images with ~83% accuracy, debating research benefits versus privacy and data-broker concerns. Finally, they critique a 2026 cross-sectional study linking physical activity, HDL cholesterol, and lower depression odds, arguing the effect is associative and likely non-causal, and expand into broader concerns about interpreting lipids in athletic populations and medical risk models. 00:00 Show Intro and Hosts 01:05 Flex Diet Cert and Supplements 03:23 Brevity in Science Talks 05:34 Talk Tactics and Backup Slides 08:22 Supplements vs Food Biomarkers 14:04 Vitamin D and Biomarker Limits 15:21 Iron Radio Feed Update 16:32 Newsletter and Book Plug 18:21 Wearable Food Tracking Glasses 21:00 Privacy and Data Broker Fears 23:21 VR Ads and Escape 23:53 Food Illusions and Conditioning 24:27 Research Uses vs Privacy 26:20 Testing Dietary Recall Accuracy 27:39 HDL Exercise and Depression Study 30:29 Is HDL Really Causal 33:21 Selling Results in Titles 35:02 HDL Drugs and High HDL Debate 37:08 Statins Risk Models and Exercise 40:15 Athlete Labs and Wrap Up Donate to the show via PayPal HERE.You can also join Dr Mike's Insider Newsletter for more info on how to add muscle, improve your performance and body comp - all without destroying your health, go to www.ironradiodrmike.com Thank you!Phil, Jerrell, Mike T, and Lonnie

Portland Public Schools threw itself a party last week to celebrate breaking ground on the new $460 million dollar Jefferson High School. And The Oregonian dutifully repeated the talking point that the building would be “all electric powered.” Sounds impressive… until you look at the details.Because PPS quietly admitted—right before the ceremony—that the school won't be all electric. Science labs still need natural gas for Bunsen burners. State law still requires diesel backup generators. And the other two high school rebuilds, Cleveland and Ida B. Wells, are in the same boat. So the “all electric” label is more marketing than engineering.But even if PPS could pull it off, it wouldn't change emissions. More than half the natural gas used in Oregon is burned to make electricity. So removing gas lines from the school just means the same gas gets burned somewhere else. Meanwhile, wind and solar provided only about eleven percent of Oregon's electricity last year. Fossil fuels provided at least thirty eight percent. The grid isn't magic.What is real is the cost. PPS's own consultant warned that all electric construction would add at least ten million dollars per school. And when Cascade asked the district for documentation on those added costs, PPS gave us nothing.New York's governor just backed away from its own climate mandate after projecting thousands of dollars in new annual energy costs per family. That's the future PPS is pretending not to see.It's not too late for the board to stop chasing slogans and redirect thirty million dollars toward improvements that actually help students.For Cascade Policy Institute, I'm Naomi Inman.Read more at www.cascadepolicy.org

On this crucial California Primary election day, the race for Los Angeles Mayor is hitting a boiling point. Kennedy, host of the "Kennedy Saves the World" podcast, joins the Rundown to break down the surprising political rise of outsider candidate Spencer Pratt. Once written off by critics, Pratt has surged into a statistical tie with incumbent Mayor Karen Bass following his on-the-ground advocacy for victims of the devastating Palisades fire.Former First Lady Jill Biden's new memoir, "View from the East Wing," has reopened deep Democratic wounds by recounting her perspective on the 2024 debate night and the subsequent fallout regarding the former president's cognitive decline. Partner at Ballard Partners and former press secretary to Jill Biden and special assistant to the president Michael LaRosa, joins the podcast to discuss how the book's revelations damage her credibility and expose a long-standing pattern of stage-management and evasion by the Biden family.

You pick up your phone to do one quick task, and suddenly 20 minutes have flown by without you even noticing. How do apps do that to you? Science journalist Michaeleen Doucleff felt like her phone had superglue on it, holding her on it for hours each day while draining her of time and energy. Turns out, that feeling isn't accidental. In her new book, Dopamine Kids, Michaeleen describes four features that tech companies add to apps to keep us scrolling for as long as possible. She's sharing this superglue recipe with Short Wave host Emily Kwong … and explaining how these features can pull people into what scientists call a ‘dark flow' state.Interested in more tech and social media science?
