Podcasts about Science

On this encore episode of Science of Reading: The Podcast, host Susan Lambert, Ed.D., is joined by Brittney Bills, Ed.D., educator and senior manager of literacy partnerships at Amplify. Brittney explains what a Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) is and how it centers on prevention, rather than intervention. She also talks about the intersection of universal screening data and an MTSS, and provides advice on evidence-based strategies and techniques to make a positive impact in your classroom. Drawing on examples from her former district, Brittney discusses how to prevent burnout, use data effectively, and support ongoing improvement.Show notes: Connect with Brittney Bills on LinkedIn.Listen to Season 3 of the Amplify podcast Beyond My Years.Join our community Facebook group.Connect with Susan Lambert.Quotes:"[An] MTSS is not a thing that lives outside of the Science of Reading. They're two things that complement each other very, very well." —Brittney Bills"We need better processes that we can apply more widely to effectively arrive at our outcomes for our students who need more intensive support." —Brittney Bills"It's the student's needs that should drive the decisions, not a cool presentation that we saw at a conference." —Brittney BillsTimestamps*:0:00 Introduction: Implementing MTSS with Brittney Bills, Ed.D.2:00 Brittney's Science of Reading journey5:00 Pursuing leadership6:00 Bringing literacy and MTSS together7:00 What is an MTSS?9:00 Universal tier as the first intervention11:00 Key MTSS components: screening, fidelity, and progress monitoring17:00 Student need should drive decisions18:00 Class-wide intervention and leveraging data efficiently21:00 Rethinking small-group instruction30:00 Data analysis tools for grade-level PLCs35:00 MTSS as continuous support42:00 Closing thoughts: "MTSS is not another thing, it is the thing."*Timestamps are approximate

Did you miss the first edition of our Training Talk video series? You are in luck as the Supporters Club embargo has ended! In this exclusive 1-on-1 interview, LetsRun.com co-founder Robert Johnson sits down with Dr. Marius Bakken—13:06 5000m runner, two-time Norwegian Olympian, medical doctor, and the true mastermind behind the double threshold "Norwegian Method" training system used by Jakob Ingebrigtsen and elites worldwide. Bakken breaks down the physiological logic behind double threshold, why the muscular system (not the heart or lungs) is the true limiting factor for distance runners, how to properly use lactate meters, super shoe technology, and why easy days MUST stay easy. If you liked interview, then you need to read the article we wrote as he answered some additional questions via email after we recorded.

Send us Fan MailProbiotics left US NICUs after the FDA reclassified them, and NEC rates went up. This week Ben reviews the Connection Study, a 2,158 infant phase 3 trial of IBP-9414, a live biotherapeutic product containing Limosilactobacillus reuteri, run under an IND with the regulatory rigor probiotics never had. Neither primary endpoint reached significance, but all cause mortality fell 27%, and surgically confirmed NEC favored treatment after 14 days of dosing. The discussion may be the real story, including a kappa of 0.36 between radiologists reading the same NEC films.

On this episode, you'll hear the remarkable story of Bass Pale Ale. This story begins at the dawn of the industrial age, and charts Bass's rise as one of the first global brewing brands. Over the course of two centuries, its pale ales evolved to meet the times, and today we know Bass as one of Britain's classic cask ales—a beer enjoying a current renaissance among the country's pubs. In many ways, in telling the story of Bass, we're recounting the history of brewing in Britain over the past two centuries: its technological and industrial rise, the collapse that befell the giants over the past generation, and, perhaps, an encouraging revival. You'll hear from Harry White, who started at Bass in the research and development department in 1977. He would become Director of Quality Assurance in 1989, and stayed with the company until 2007. Today he is the chairman of the National Brewery Heritage Trust in Burton Upon Trent. You'll also hear from Pete Brown, one of the most celebrated beer writers in the world and the author of over a dozen books, including his most recent, Tasting Notes – The Art and Science of Pairing Beer and Music.It's an amazing brewery and an amazing story, all befitting one of the world's most iconic beers.Visit AllAboutBeer.com for more podcasts, to read original articles, and to get info on upcoming events.Click here to support independent journalism covering the beer industry.This episode is sponsored by:RahrBSGThis episode of the One Iconic Beer podcast is supported by RahrBSG – trusted supplier to brewers, distillers, and beverage makers across North America.  From the barley field to your brewhouse, we're proud to support the people behind great beer with the ingredients, expertise, and service they depend on.  Whether you're brewing the next great American Double IPA or crafting an award-winning continental lager, RahrbSG provides the industry's finest quality, selection, and support.

Plus, you'll get ad free listening, a weekly Applied show, and a community that argues better than the internet does!Show notesOn the show today, the physiology behind the best women's Grand Tour we can remember, and a doping ban that fits a pattern we have seen many times before.(00:01:00) The Tour de France Femmes was, we think, the best Grand Tour either of us has watched in years, and we explore the nine stages of unpredictable racing that had us intrigued, even if the record will show that Demi Vollering won four of them.(00:05:56) Kasia Niewiadoma's ride on Mont Ventoux, at somewhere between 5.3 and 5.6 W/kg for the climb, is arguably the greatest climbing performance in the history of women's cycling, and we place it against the published power duration curves to show just how far outside the 90th percentile it sits.(00:17:19) Niewiadoma also posted 9.9 W/kg for 86 seconds, and from that single Strava screenshot we work out her FTP and her W', the anaerobic "battery", which lets us answer the question everyone argued about, namely whether being blocked into that corner actually cost her time to rival Vollering. We think the answer is unequivocally yes, and the maths and the principle of pacing explains why.(00:25:50) Praise for Puck Pieterse, sympathy for Marlen Reusser and Pauline Ferrand-Prévot, and a wonder about the 'mature' podium, and the prospect of a handover to the next generation in good time, just not 'our time'(00:41:41) The World U20 Championships, where a 17 year old ran 7:28 solo for 3000m, Tate Taylor doubled up in 9.94 and 19.83, and the ever-turning carousel of youth talent that is sometimes derailed by injury and sometimes deposed by the next young phenom(00:45:46) Jakob Ingebrigtsen returns and wins the European 5000m title in 13:16, off a slow race that played into his hands, and he explains, correctly, that a 5000m is not a test of speed but of how much speed you have left. He also promises he'll be "astonishingly a lot better" next time.(00:52:32) Jonah Koech gets a three year ban after an adverse passport finding. We explain how the biological passport actually works, why two suspicious samples means the values must have been wildly out of the norm, and why his 3.2% improvement should have invited scepticism long before the blood results did. Performance is not proof, but pattern recognition lives on, with this its latest illustration.(01:07:46) The WNBA has no eligibility policy, so two former NBA players have declared for the women's draft to prove the point. We discuss why choosing not to decide is itself a decision, how people are choosing to pretend a problem doesn't exist (or that it doesn't matter if it does), and contrast this with the WTA who have implemented screening for eligibility, and just gotten on with it(01:15:29) And finally, the origins of the steeplechase, which begins with two blokes, an Irish pub, a wager, and two church steeples. Plus a nutritionist on social media who watched 96 seconds and decided we had lost all credibility. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Guest: Dr. Amanda Staudt We live in an era where the weather is breaking records, reshaping economies, and dominating global headlines. Navigating this rapidly changing landscape requires a unique blend of cutting-edge science, public trust, and bold leadership. As the newly appointed Executive Director of the American Meteorological Society, Dr. Amanda Staudt is stepping into the helm at a pivotal moment. From the rapid integration of artificial intelligence in forecasting to the battle against climate misinformation, she is tasked with guiding the scientific community into the future. Today, we're sitting down with Dr. Staudt to discuss her vision for the future of meteorology, how AMS is adapting to the AI revolution, and what it takes to inspire the next generation of weather and climate professionals.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Amanda Staudt's background00:50 How Amanda became a weather enthusiast04:02 AMS's history and Amanda's leadership role04:58 Bridging academia, government, and private sector07:42 AMS's publications, conferences, and programs10:46 The new AI-focused journal and its significance14:57 AMS's role in policy and advocacy15:46 Break 120:01 Communicating science to policymakers and the public25:00 The importance of conferences and professional development27:47 Break 230:00 Future vision for AMS and the evolving weather enterprise33:55 AMS's organizational structure and volunteer engagement36:43 Closing remarks and gratitudeResourcesAmerican Meteorological Society (AMS) - https://www.ametsoc.orgAMS Journals - https://www.ametsoc.org/ams/index.cfm/publications/journals/Climate Crossroads Congressional Fellowship - https://www.nationalacademies.org/programs/NRCEO-CCX-23-P-56AI in Environmental Systems Journal - https://www.ametsoc.org/ams/publications/journals/artificial-intelligence-for-the-earth-systems/National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine - https://www.nationalacademies.orgGuest LinksLinkedIn - linkedin.com/in/amanda-staudt-27ba22b8Twitter - https://twitter.com/amandastaudtSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Dr. Kellie Owens, is an assistant professor in the section of medical ethics at NYU Grossman School of Medicine. She's a sociologist and empirical bioethicist studying how digital technologies are woven into the fabric of healthcare and society and how governance structures can better support those affected by technological change. She also leads the responsible AI review process for the Division of Applied AI Technologies and with the IRB. PART 2 In medicine, we do know that examples of bias and harm from that bias have happened. The most famous case was brought to our attention from Ziad Obermeyer and his colleagues in Science in 2019. It was examining racial discrimination resulting from a commercial algorithm that was widely used by health systems to identify patients with complex health needs that might need extra support. Instead, we found that the algorithm was prioritizing white patients over black patients and was reducing the number of black patients who should have been enrolled in those care management programs by more than half. In some ways, there are pretty easy ways to fix these kinds of biases and problems if we're attuned to them. So once we see them, we can usually fix them. In this case, training the model using active chronic conditions rather than total costs would have significantly reduced bias.  The point is that understanding the social context in which an algorithm is developed and is operating in is really important. Otherwise, it can be pretty easy to make mistakes like this if you're not paying attention to disparate impacts in the ways that our choices in algorithm development can have impacts on fairness and outcomes for different groups. Another major ethics consideration touched upon in her presentation is mostly about data privacy.

I can bet you want two things: a thriving team and a thriving culture. For a lot of us, they feel like a mirage — we can see them, but we can't quite get there. In this episode I sit down with Dr. Jamie Shapiro, author of Connected Culture: The New Science for Thriving Teams and Cultures, CEO coach, and organizational psychologist. We dig into why she calls culture an "operating system," her five C's model (with connection — care and trust — at the center), why clarity is a force multiplier and not bureaucracy, the difference between collaboration and teamwork, and how AI shows up differently in cultures built on trust versus fear.

Human childbirth is often difficult and incredibly painful—just ask anyone who's been through it. And for a long time, childbirth seemed to be uniquely difficult for humans. But a new study suggests that we aren't alone: Some small primates birth offspring whose heads are nearly twice the size of the mother's pelvic area.   So how do those primates go through difficult childbirths? Why didn't evolution make ours any easier? And what can this tell us about humankind? Flora explores these questions and more with anthropologist Lia Betti.

CLICK HERE TO PROTECT THE DUCK FACTORYEvery decoy has a story, and some of those stories stretch back more than a century.Host Katie Burke sits down with longtime collector, outdoorsman, and former Ducks Unlimited Canada volunteer leader Paul Brisco at the North American Decoy Collectors Show for a conversation about decoy history, waterfowling traditions, and a lifetime spent preserving pieces of North America's hunting heritage.Paul shares how a chance encounter with a $40 decoy sparked a collecting journey that has lasted more than four decades. Along the way, he discusses the regional differences found in Canadian decoys, the connection between hunting and collecting, his long involvement with Ducks Unlimited Canada, and why hands-on learning remains one of the most important parts of the decoy community. The conversation also explores how hunting traditions, conservation efforts, and decoy craftsmanship have evolved over generations while remaining closely tied to waterfowl and wetlands.Topics CoveredHow Paul Brisco got started collecting decoysWaterfowl hunting traditions in OntarioEarly involvement with Ducks Unlimited CanadaRegional differences in Canadian decoy carvingHow form and function shaped decoy designMarket hunting, conservation, and changing waterfowl traditionsThe importance of decoy shows and collector communitiesWhy collecting remains connected to hunting heritageListen now: www.ducks.org/DUPodcastSend feedback: DUPodcast@ducks.orgSPONSORS:Bird Dog Whiskey and Cocktails:Whether you're winding down with your best friend, or celebrating with your favorite crew, Bird Dog brings award-winning flavor to every moment.

My new book, Own Or Be Owned, is all about building a business so good it doesn't need you. More profit, less pain. It's out September 18, grab your ticket to the launch event here: https://contrarianthinking.biz/oobo_bigdeal - cs You've been visualizing success. Watching the vision board. Repeating the affirmations. Trusting the universe to deliver. Here's the truth: the more vividly you fantasize about success, the worse you perform. And the science proves it. The Secret sold 30 million copies by promising that if you visualize wealth hard enough, the universe will deliver it. But two decades of research shows the opposite. NYU psychologists tracked college graduates and found that students who spent the most time in positive fantasies about their dream jobs sent out fewer applications, got fewer offers, and earned lower salaries two years later. Your brain books the fantasy as a partial payment on the real thing, giving you the reward before you've done the work. Manifestation isn't fuel. It's anesthesia. This episode breaks down the exact frameworks elite builders use instead, why Buddhist monks sit with decaying bodies to rehearse death, and the three anti-manifestation moves that turn goals into reality. From the Stoic practice of premeditation of evils to the WHOOP method that doubles your odds of success, you'll learn why imagining failure makes you stronger and how to engineer systems that make your obituary impossible. In this episode, you'll learn: Why NYU research proves that positive fantasies kill performance and how students who visualized success earned 24 pounds less in weight loss studies and lower salaries than peers who confronted reality The five step anti-manifestation practice: write your business obituary, name what caused the death, run the survival check, extract the system, and put it on the calendar quarterly The Stockdale Paradox: why optimists died in Vietnam POW camps and how brutal faith in the destination plus brutal honesty about the path is what separates winners from wishful thinkers Why announcing goals out loud makes you quit 33% faster and how premature applause becomes a paycheck your brain cashes before the work exists The WHOOP framework: Wish, Outcome, Obstacle, Plan, and how this method doubles your odds of hitting goals by naming the exact moment resistance shows up and engineering the if-then response in advance And one more thing for the business owners: stop making million dollar decisions alone!

He talks about the difference between a HIIT workout and a true sprint workout, as well as what happens in the body when we do an all-out sprint: how it can improve our body composition, overall fitness, agility, power, strength, and longevity.  Brad tells us how to do a sprint workout effectively and safely, how often you should be sprinting to maximize the benefits, why he believes Zone 1 training is actually underrated, and much more.

The way you think about stress doesn't just affect your mood, it can actually change your cortisol regulation. In this episode, we explore the science of mindset, resilience, and goal setting, and how reframing the way you perceive stress and setbacks can lead to lasting behavior change. You'll learn: How cognitive appraisal theory shapes your body's stress response Why your expectations directly influence how stressful something feels How to build self-efficacy through small, consistent wins What "prediction error" is and how it explains why setbacks derail motivation How implementation intentions make goals more specific and achievable Why discomfort and adversity are necessary parts of real growth How habits and default behaviors quietly shape long-term progress Whether you're working through a stressful season or trying to build habits that actually stick, this episode gives you a science-backed framework for reframing challenges and building real, lasting confidence.

The most damaging hours of the Lindsay Clancy murder trial belonged to her own defense attorney on Day 10. Then the prosecution took the exact same testimony and turned it around.Kevin Reddington spent the morning at Plymouth Superior Court walking Dr. Jennifer Tufts through everything she did not have. No file from the perinatal clinic her patient was attending. No conversation with the family. No signed authorization that would have unlocked either. Tufts, who is a named defendant in a malpractice claim over this care, told the jury she did not believe she had been negligent.Assistant District Attorney Jennifer Sprague began her redirect by asking Tufts to describe what psychosis looks like in an appointment, then asked whether she had ever seen any of it in Lindsay Clancy. Tufts answered no. She said she saw no mania either, and described the presentation as the opposite.Sprague then built out the state's theory. Clancy scheduled her own appointments. She took herself to an emergency room without being sent. She reported her medications and her reactions to them with precision. On the family question, Sprague established that federal privacy law barred Tufts from calling relatives at all.One more detail landed for the prosecution. Clancy reported on January 16, 2023 that she had to force herself out of bed, and Tufts testified she had no idea her patient had taken the children to the Museum of Science days earlier.Tony lays out both readings of the same day and where the afternoon witness leaves them.Clancy is presumed innocent of the charges against her and has pleaded not guilty. No verdict has been returned.END LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In some ways, our imagination is like an all-access pass. It can transport us to a different place, it allows us to picture a beautiful beach, or a lush flower garden. We can envision what our lives may look like in the future or revisit the past. Psychologist Cassandra Vieten argues that using our imagination is not about immersing ourselves in a fantasy world. It's a powerful tool that affects our physical and mental health, our relationships with others, and life trajectories and careers. Vieten joins us to talk about her research, and her new book, “Imagine That: Transform How You Think, Feel, and Live with the Science of Imagination.”

Books have never been trendier, but studies show that as more and more things compete for our frazzled attention spans, we're reading less and less. This is a problem because reading has a wealth of cognitive benefits that we're in danger of missing out on. To find out why declining literacy could affect everything from memory to IQ, Madeleine Finlay speaks to the Guardian's science editor, Ian Sample. She also hears from Prof Falk Huettig, an experimental psychologist at the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics and author of The Perks of Being a Bookworm.

Send us Fan MailParents of babies undergoing therapeutic hypothermia often wait days before they can hold their child, and many never get the chance during cooling at all. This week on Journal Club, Daphna reviews a new Journal of Perinatology retrospective cohort from two level IV NICUs, 379 infants with HIE, where 28% were held during cooling. Held infants reached full oral feeds sooner, were more likely to go home on breast milk, and had shorter stays, but they were also less sick to begin with. Ben pushes on confounding, on the exclusion of infants who died, and on what equipment would make holding routine.----Association of parental holding during therapeutic hypothermia and NICU outcomes for infants with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.

Author and Leadership Coach, Miroo Kim, spent much of her life checking off every seemingly important box. From getting into the right schools, to a 20 year career in tech that spanned roles within some of the world's most iconic companies,Places like Microsoft, Apple, and Meta. It was what some might call a dream career.And yet, instead of the meaning and fulfillment one might expect to find as a result,In the end, Miroo found herself:Burned out, Feeling depressed,  And sitting with the experience of emptiness. So she started to wonder:“Is this the only way of working? Do I really have to suffer at work until I retire? Is there another way?”Her new book: The Placeholder: The Place to Go to Create Your Noble WorkExplores these questions and traverses the territory of meaning, fulfillment, and vocation.In today's conversation we'll unpack many of the lessons contained within it's pages. Including the hard-earned wisdom Miroo has gained over the years through:Research, Experimentation,Reflection,And the work she does coaching leaders on workplace culture. All of which point toward the possibility of a different experience of work. One where we don't suffer. One where we get to do what matters deeply to us. And one that leaves us feeling fulfilled through the process.For more on Miroo, please visit peopleculture.co or follow her substack which you can find at placeholder.communityEnjoying the show?

What role does empathy play in the healing process?Healing has become one of the defining pursuits of our time. Whether through medicine, therapy, or countless approaches to emotional and psychological well-being, people everywhere are searching for ways to heal.Yet there is one essential force that, while often acknowledged, is still profoundly underestimated: empathy.You've probably heard of mirror neurons. Science has shown that we're wired to mirror one another's experiences. Watch someone accidentally slam a door on their fingers, God forbid, and you'll instinctively cringe. You may even cry out, "Ouch!" Though the pain isn't yours, you feel it because, in some way, you have entered their experience.But what if empathy is more than a reflex? What if it's one of the most powerful healing forces we possess?Can another person begin to heal simply because they know they're not alone? Because they feel deeply seen, understood, and held with genuine care and compassion?Perhaps healing doesn't begin only with the right treatment. Perhaps it begins with the reassuring presence of another human being who truly feels your pain.Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson as we explore The Empathy Effect—how the simple act of feeling, listening, and caring can become a profound path to healing.

Strong leaders know that facts alone rarely change minds. In this episode, Dean Newlund and Danny Bobrow explore why authentic connection comes before persuasion and how leaders can communicate in ways that earn trust, strengthen relationships, and inspire action.   In this episode, Dean Newlund and Danny Bobrow discuss: Lessons from endurance sports and teamwork The Persuasion Blueprint framework Persuasion in digital and AI-assisted communication Building stronger relationships through emotional awareness Leadership communication during difficult conversations   Key Takeaways: Begin difficult conversations by helping people feel understood before trying to convince them. Care and emotional attunement create the foundation for collaboration. Let enthusiasm grow by discovering what already motivates the other person instead of overwhelming them with your own excitement. In digital communication, take time to write thoughtful, respectful messages that provide context and show consideration. Before debating emotional issues, understand where someone is coming from instead of leading with facts alone. Use AI to support your thinking, but preserve authentic judgment and relationships where trust depends on your own words.   "What people are really craving is to be understood, not to be impressed.” — Danny Bobrow   About Danny Bobrow: Daniel A. “Danny” Bobrow is the creator of The Art of First Impressions™ and The Persuasion Blueprint™, communication mastery programs that help businesses build trust and drive ethical conversion. He is President of AIM Dental Marketing, which has helped grow dental practices since 1989, and serves as Executive Director of Climb for a Cause™ and The Smile Tree™.

Just because you had a great team or organizational culture does not mean it is guaranteed for tomorrow. The best leaders and teams breathe oxygen into their people and the future culture. See the full show notes and access at: https://www.jasonvbarger.com/podcast/breathing-oxygen-in-your-culture/ Jason explores how the best leaders and organizations actively breathe oxygen into their teams and offers a six-step framework to fuel a dynamic, high-performing culture. Please rate and review the podcast to help amplify these messages to others! Summary: Just because your organizational culture was thriving yesterday doesn't guarantee its health tomorrow. In this solo episode of The Thermostat, Jason V Barger tackles the reality that culture is dynamic—shaped moment by moment by how we think, act, and interact. To avoid complacency and toxic stagnation, executives cannot simply "set it and forget it." This conversation explores the critical distinction between "oxygen givers" who fuel team energy with solutions and gratitude, and "oxygen takers" who drain environments through gossip, blame, and triangulation. Backed by neurological insights from the National Science Foundation into how negative, repetitive thoughts clutter our decision-making, Jason outlines a proactive approach to clearing the air and optimizing focus. Essential listening for C-Suite executives, HR directors, and team leaders committed to shaping compelling cultures, this episode provides six actionable strategies to sustain a thriving ecosystem—from culture-driven onboarding to the undeniable power of congregation. Episode Notes & Timestamps: Intro: Jason sets the stage for a conversation on the specific mindsets needed to breathe oxygen into your culture and fuel your team. A Milestone Celebration: Thanking listeners as The Thermostat is recognized as the #13 top authentic leadership podcast in the U.S. by Million Podcasts. Culture is Dynamic: Why organizational health isn't static and the dangers of a "set it and forget it" leadership mentality. Oxygen Givers vs. Oxygen Takers: Defining the behaviors of people who inject life and possibility into a room versus those who suck the energy out through negativity. The Science of Cluttered Minds: Analyzing the reality that 80% of our 12,000 to 60,000 daily thoughts skew negative, and how that toxic air stunts decision-making. Identifying Your Air Quality: Taking a step back to evaluate the conditions, environments, and people that either energize your leadership or drain it. Strategies 1 & 2: Articulating the culture clearly and identifying the specific actions and behaviors that support or destroy your ecosystem. Strategies 3 & 4: Rethinking hiring and onboarding for the first 90 days, and the necessity of proactively developing emerging leaders. Strategies 5 & 6: The power of congregation through regional culture summits and why ongoing leadership development is required to model the temperature. Questions to Ponder: Jason leaves leaders with reflective prompts to help calibrate their personal and organizational thermostats. Key Takeaways for Leaders: Protect the Air Quality: Identify and address "oxygen takers" who rely on gossip and blame, while actively empowering the "oxygen givers" who focus on shared solutions. Define the Behaviors: Move your core values off the wall by co-creating clear, actionable behaviors with your team that define exactly what your culture looks like in practice. The Power of Congregation: Combat remote and hybrid isolation by prioritizing consistent, intentional gatherings to realign your team's mission and relationships.

Water always wins. The question is whether we let it cool the planet while it does — or keep fighting it until there's nothing left to fight with.Erica Gies is the author of Water Always Wins: Thriving in an Age of Drought and Deluge, and is currently writing her second book, Roots to Sky: How Life and Water Can Help Cool Earth's Climate, due in 2028. She is an environmental journalist who has spent more than a decade travelling the world to document how communities are rebuilding their relationship with water — not by controlling it better, but by understanding what water wants and working with it.The common climate narrative — decarbonise, bring fossil fuel emissions to zero, done — is no longer sufficient on its own. Water vapour accounts for roughly half the greenhouse effect. We've degraded 75% of the earth's land surface, largely by draining it. And more sea level rise comes from pumping groundwater than from melting glaciers — something a 1970 MIT Press report already knew. We've only accelerated since.The good news: this is something we can change relatively quickly through land restoration. And water is absolutely key.In this episode:— Why water always wins and what it means to ask what water wants rather than fighting it— How growing up in California, built on extreme water engineering, shaped Erica's obsession— Why she shifted from surface water to the atmosphere for her new book Roots to Sky— The 1970 MIT report that flagged pumping groundwater raises sea levels — 55 years of acceleration since— Why 87% of wetlands drained, two thirds of rivers dammed, and cities doubled since 1992 have made our water problems worse, not better— Why the best water solutions are modular and decentralised — and why that's empowering— What beavers in California are teaching farmers who spent eighty years shooting them— Why investors optimising single variables are running out of natural buffers faster than they think— Why land back for indigenous peoples may be one of the highest-return interventions available— Her magic wand answer: caring for non-humans — and why she thinks we're closer to it than it seems.More about this episode.Thoughts?

What is the number one skill employers want most that almost nobody has been formally taught? Patrick Van Der Burght has spent 27 years studying exactly why people say yes, not through manipulation, but through science, and in this episode he shares what he found.Patrick is a founding member of the Cialdini Institute, one of a small number of Cialdini Institute Licensed Trainers worldwide, a business partner of Dr. Robert Cialdini, and ranked 4th among Cialdini Certified Trainers globally. He has been teaching ethical persuasion since 2000 and is the co-author of How to Hear YES More Often. This is Part 1 of 2. Part 2 covers the seven universal principles of persuasion in depth.What you will learn:Why most professionals are losing opportunities they never even know they lostThe three-stage framework: relationship, uncertainty, and motivationWhy 150 percent more people acted with loss framing than gain framingThe difference between manipulation and ethical persuasionWhy persuasion is the third most in-demand soft skill according to the World Economic ForumConnect with Patrick Van Der Burght:Website: https://ethicalpersuasion.com.auPersonal Site: https://patrickvanderburght.comPodcast: https://ethicalpersuasion.com.au/podcastYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ethicalpersuasionLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/patrick-van-der-burght/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ethicalpersuasionFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/ethicalpersuasion/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ethical_persuasion/Twitter / X: https://x.com/yesmoreoftenFree Resources: https://ethicalpersuasion.com.au/free-influence-persuasion/Discovery Call: https://ethicalpersuasion.com.au/discovery-call/Connect with Dwight Heck:Website: https://www.giveaheck.comPodcast Page: https://www.giveaheck.com/podcastYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@giveaheckFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/dwight.heckInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/give.a.heckLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dwight-heck-65a90150/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@giveaheckTwitter / X: https://twitter.com/give_a_heckWork With Me / Be a Guest: https://www.giveaheck.com/contact-us/

The underlying science has not moved. There is no link between vaccines and autism. That question has been studied for decades across millions of children in multiple countries, and autism has a substantial genetic component. Spreading the schedule out is not a neutral change. It means more office visits, more billing, more needle sticks per child, and protection arriving later than it should, against diseases that are already returning. The country has seen its worst measles outbreaks in decades, concentrated in undervaccinated communities. NOTUS found that RFK Jr.'s 72 page MAHA report on chronic childhood disease cited at least seven studies that do not exist, alongside broken links and misstated findings. Epidemiologist Katherine Keyes was among the named authors who said they never wrote the papers attributed to them.

It can affect emotions, relationships, sleep, eating, executive function, and everyday life.Women are frequently missed because they may present primarily with inattentive symptoms rather than the stereotypical hyperactive presentation.Hormonal changes can worsen ADHD symptoms, particularly when estrogen drops during the menstrual cycle, postpartum period, and perimenopause.Anxiety and depression can coexist with ADHD, but they can also be diagnoses that obscure underlying ADHD.Rejection sensitive dysphoria describes an intense emotional or physical response to real or perceived rejection or criticism and can be particularly disruptive for people with ADHD.Finding the right ADHD treatment is highly individualized. Medication can be one tool alongside behavioral strategies and other forms of support.Dr. Hamdani emphasizes that the goal of ADHD medication isn't to make someone feel “perfect,” but to provide consistent support that allows them to function more like they do on a good day.Emotional sensitivity isn't necessarily something that needs to be eliminated. The goal can be learning to better understand and regulate it.Guest Bio: Dr. Sasha HamdaniDr. Sasha Hamdani is a board-certified psychiatrist and ADHD specialist who has both personal and professional experience with ADHD. After being diagnosed with ADHD as a child, she went on to become a physician and now specializes in treating ADHD and helping patients better understand the condition beyond traditional symptoms of inattention and hyperactivity. She is also the author of Too Sensitive: Rejection, Resilience, and the Science of Feeling Deeply, which explores the neuroscience of emotional sensitivity, rejection, hormones, and practical tools for managing intense emotions.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Your mind is constantly selling you a story about who you are, what's true, and what you should believe. But how do you know when that story is helping and when it's quietly leading you astray? Today, we're exploring two books about belief, evidence, and the slippery search for certainty: Inner Propaganda: Leading Hearts and Minds Through Turbulent Times by Owen Fitzpatrick and Proof: The Art and Science of Certainty by Adam Kucharski.

Ross Bell is back on the Platform. He is the founder and head coach of Armor Fitness and the man behind VIKN Performance chalk, the official chalk of the Twin Cities Kettlebell Open for as long as we run this thing. We are shield brothers, and this one is a good one.We get into what Ross is building: Grip of the Gods, an all-comers charity kettlebell competition benefiting Team RWB (enriching veterans' lives through fitness). It came out of losing a friend right before Christmas and wanting to get in front of veteran suicide instead of scrambling to react to it. Lift anything, claim any clan, 25 bucks a lift, and it goes to the cause. In person August 22 at Breakthrough Fitness in Grand Ledge, Michigan, or virtual from anywhere with your set filmed during the submission window.Ross is anchoring the day with a stupid-for-good world-record attempt: a two-hour long cycle set, with sponsors pledging dollars per rep straight to the vets. We nerd out on how you even train for two hours under the bell (burst-duration sets under Ken Blackburn and the IKFF, gloved snatch work, Bulgarian bag and mace, the Norwegian cycling protocol), why grip is the most underrated quality in the sport, how to train your skin like the organ it is, and what actually separates high-quality chalk from the shitty stuff. If you have ever figured chalk is chalk, VIKN's Valhalla Dust will change your mind.CHAPTERS00:00 Sponsor: VIKN Performance01:02 Welcome, and who Ross Bell is03:31 Catching up: rebuilding Armor Fitness and VIKN05:43 Grip of the Gods, and why Team RWB10:18 How the event works and how to register (Aug 22 Grand Ledge, or virtual)13:56 The two-hour long cycle world record attempt14:22 Training for a two-hour set (Ken Blackburn / IKFF)16:44 Cardio and the Norwegian protocol18:35 Sponsor: Living.Fit19:15 Grip: the underrated quality23:02 Torn hands, and how to avoid them26:00 Chalk science: what separates good chalk from bad28:40 Valhalla Dust31:29 Where to find Ross and VIKN32:37 WrapCONNECT WITH ROSS + VIKNVIKN Performance on Instagram / Facebook: @viknperformanceRoss's personal brand on Instagram / Facebook: @ArmorFitnessKettlebellGrip of the Gods registration, $25 a lift, in person Aug 22 or virtual: https://viknperformance.com/pages/grip-of-the-godsPledge Ross's world-record set (dollars per rep to Team RWB): https://app.99pledges.com/fund/armorfitness/ross-bellRoss's Aug 23 kettlebell-sport seminar (IKFF) signup: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSckNZ0OpNDxbTnCUy8zdWulfdoIHojnpzEaw4eLYZu319AL9Q/viewformCONNECT WITH TCKBRegister for the 2026 Twin Cities Kettlebell Open / AKLU National Championship, September 12: https://www.twincitieskettlebellclub.com/openApply for 1-on-1 coaching: https://www.twincitieskettlebellclub.com/interestformEmail: twincitieskettlebellclub@gmail.comIf this episode helps, follow the show and share it with someone who needs to hear it.

Dr. Ted Lain welcomes Dr. Mona Shariari — Associate Clinical Professor of Dermatology at Yale School of Medicine, Associate Director of Clinical Trials at Central Connecticut Dermatology, and host of the Medical Sisterhood Podcast — for a deep dive into one of dermatology's most persistent challenges: polypharmacy and topical confusion.Ted and Mona look back at the old-school regimens dermatologists used to write out — one topical for the face, another for the body, different products for weekdays versus weekends — and how that complexity set patients up for poor adherence and side effects like skin thinning and hypopigmentation from steroid overuse. They discuss why once-daily, non-steroidal options like roflumilast (Zoryve) cream and foam have changed the equation, allowing head-to-toe use without the body surface area and duration limits that come with topical steroids.Topics covered include:Why systemic absorption is a bigger concern with topical steroids in pediatric patientsClinical trial insights on roflumilast for seborrheic dermatitis, atopic dermatitis, and psoriasisThe foam formulation's use in sensitive areas like the scalp, face, and skin foldsHow roflumilast compares to older PDE4 inhibitors and topical calcineurin inhibitorsWhy the drug's mechanism works across both TH1- and TH2-driven inflammationThe impact of once-daily dosing on patient compliance and long-term outcomesPractical tips for talking to patients transitioning off topical steroidsThis episode is sponsored by Arcutis Biotherapeutics, makers of Zoryve (roflumilast).Got a question or an idea for a future episode?

Black-and-white Warblers are tiny songbirds that breed in North America's deciduous forests and winter as far south as Colombia. They feast on insects gleaned from leaves or plucked from cracks in tree bark. You'll often find them clinging to tree trunks or the undersides of thick branches — acting more like a nuthatch than a warbler. Like many songbirds, Black-and-white Warblers migrate at night — using the stars to navigate. Unfortunately, nocturnal light pollution can disrupt their sense of direction or cause them to collide with buildings. You can help Black-and-white Warblers by turning off outdoor lights and shading your windows at night, especially during migration season. BirdNote is supported by Chris Cluett of Seattle, Washington — and generous listeners around the world.  More info and transcript at BirdNote.org. Want more BirdNote?
