In this newscast: Juneau's longtime fire chief announced he plans to retire later this fall; The National Weather Service has canceled a flood warning for Mendenhall Lake and River this morning after a second, minor glacial lake outburst flood last night; The U.S. Department of Education announced last week that it will cut millions in federal grants for its Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian-serving institutions program; Scientists studying killer whales in Alaska are uncovering long-term impacts of the 2014 marine heatwave; Tongass Voices: Student debaters explore what the U.S. Constitution means to them on stage
In this episode of Selective Ignorance, Mandii B is joined by super producer A-King, journalist Jayson Rodriguez, and returning guest Ray Daniels for a thought-provoking exploration of pop culture, accountability, and the current state of society. The conversation kicks off with an introduction and book promotion [00:00], before moving into a sharp dissection of today’s biggest pop culture headlines [00:55]. From there, the hosts dive into the art of public apologies and accountability [02:44], reflecting on how controversial perspectives on relationships continue to shape both personal dynamics and public perception [05:14]. This leads into a larger discussion on the role of social media and how it amplifies — and sometimes distorts — public discourse [08:59]. The episode then shifts into rap culture, beginning with an honest breakdown of hip hop and street culture’s current state [13:48], followed by an in-depth look at Young Thug’s leaked jail calls and what they reveal about celebrity, loyalty, and consequences [18:44]. Relationship dynamics return to the forefront through the lens of Mariah the Scientist’s public narrative [24:32], before the group pauses for reflections and conclusions on how these conversations connect back to accountability and cultural responsibility [29:52]. As the dialogue expands, they explore the ecosystem of confidence and leadership and how it influences both individuals and communities [33:07]. The conversation also examines the evolution of language and shifting social norms [36:09], before celebrating athletic achievements like Carmelo Anthony’s Hall of Fame speech as part of a broader narrative about legacy and inspiration [37:33]. In its final stretch, the episode tackles the complexity of relationships and public perception [40:44], the impact of political narratives and violence — including the controversial killing of Charlie Kirk [45:05] — and ends with a powerful reflection on empathy, accountability, and the real-world consequences of opinions in today’s hyperconnected society [50:35]. “No Holes Barred: A Dual Manifesto Of Sexual Exploration And Power” w/ Tempest X!Sale Link Follow the host on Social MediaMandii B Instagram/X @fullcourtpumps Follow the guest on Social Media@raydaniels Follow the show on Social MediaInstagram @selectiveignorancepodTiktok @selective.ignoranceX/Twitter @selectiveig_pod See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

To say spotted ratfish are unusual is an understatement. Related to sharks, they abound in the inky, dark depths of the Puget Sound. Armed with a venomous fin, they swim gracefully along the sea floor trailing a long, pointed tail half the length of their bodies, with green, glowing eyes hunting for mates or prey to crack open with their beak-like mouths. And if all that wasn’t weird enough, they are now the first animal documented to have teeth growing outside of the jaw, according to new research led by a team of scientists at the University of Washington. Scientists have known for some time that male spotted ratfish have a club-like, barbed structure between their foreheads they use during mating to grasp females and intimidate reproductive rivals. But they didn’t know if the sharp barbs that ring this structure were actually teeth or denticles, tiny, rough projections that cover sharks’ skin. So they caught hundreds of specimens to study them at various stages of development, from embryos to adulthood and used 3D X-ray imaging to solve this mystery. Karly Cohen is a post-doctoral researcher at Friday Harbor Labs at the University of Washington and lead author of the recently published paper documenting this research. She joins us to share her findings and how they might expand our understanding of the evolution of teeth, and their purpose, to not only feed but to mate.

Tune in to episode 227 of Joy Found Here, where Jacques Martiquet—better known as The Party Scientist—shares how joy and human connection can transform our lives. From flash mobs to sober raves, he explores joy as a biological state, the role of community as an amplifier, and why joy may be the most underrated natural antidepressant we have.Jacques wasn't always the life of the sober party—he began as a festival medic, watching firsthand how alcohol and drugs derailed so many experiences. That pushed him to try something different: he started throwing sober raves where people could dance, connect, and feel alive without substances. Those events went viral and “The Party Scientist” was born. Since then, Jacques has built JoyCamp into a six-figure event brand, hosted corporate openings and adult summer camps, and led communities around the world in rediscovering authentic joy. His mission is simple but radical: design gatherings where phones are down, guards are lowered, and people leave feeling more connected to themselves and others.In this episode, Jacques unpacks the myths of escapism, reflects on the impact of FOMO and perfectionism, and highlights why authentic connection is essential to well-being. From daily habits to co-living experiments, he reminds us: joy isn't something we wait for—it's something we train, practice, and share.In This Episode, You Will Learn:How Jacques went from pharmacologist to The Party Scientist (3:03)Why joy is a biological state—and the habits that create it (6:43)The irony of drugs at festivals and how sober raves flip the script (10:44)Escapism, FOMO, and why joy is an inside job (14:11)The three pathways to joy: mindset, biology, environment (16:30)How Joy Bootcamp builds routines for lasting joy (20:06)Why community accelerates joy more than going it alone (23:30)The power of co-living and digital detox at Joy Mansion (28:58)How structure and play help overcome perfectionism and fear (36:55)What's next for Jacques and the future of Joy Bootcamp (40:57)Connect with Jacques Martiquet:WebsiteFacebookLinkedInInstagramLet's Connect:WebsiteInstagram Hosted on Acast.

Tucked inside the first floor of the Gwinnett Historic Courthouse in Lawrenceville, the Gwinnett County Veterans Memorial Museum (GCVMM) is a hidden gem. It’s free, volunteer-run, and packed with over 4,000 artifacts honoring those who’ve served since 1776. The museum’s story is as rich as its collection. It started in 1989 as a small military display, born from a mission to preserve the courthouse and the graves of eight soldiers from the Creek Indian War. After years of effort, it officially opened on Veterans Day 2005. Now, 20 years later, GCVMM is celebrating its anniversary on Nov. 11 from 3–6 p.m. at the Historic Courthouse. Expect patriotic demos, speakers, and tours. It’s free, it’s meaningful, and it’s a chance to honor history. See you there!

STORY 6: 4-H Farm Friends — A Gwinnett County Fair tradition for more than 3 decades Logan, a sixth-grader with a heart for animals, has always been drawn to anything with fur, feathers, or scales. At his first 4-H event, he spent the day doting on baby ducklings, goats, and sheep—each lovingly named, of course. This year, 4-H Farm Friends is back at the Gwinnett County Fairgrounds, running through Sept. 21. For just $1, visitors can cuddle baby chicks, meet cows like Moolan and Ellie May (who turns five on Monday!), and even hang out with goats—new this year. For Logan and his mom, Misty, 4-H is more than animals—it’s community. Pam Bloch, a 4-H leader for 17 years, says the program is about more than cute animals. “We’re teaching kids where their food, clothes, and milk come from,” she said. “It’s hands-on learning they don’t always get in urban areas.” And for Logan? It’s pure joy. STORY 7: Police arrest suspect in North Gwinnett Co-Op burglary A Clarkston man, already serving time in a work-release program for burglary convictions, is now facing fresh charges tied to last month’s break-in at the North Gwinnett Co-Op’s Second Blessings Thrift Store in Buford. Lavan Hickman, 38, was charged with burglary and second-degree criminal damage to property after investigators determined he left the Gwinnett County Correctional Institute on work release before committing the Aug. 19 crime. Surveillance footage showed someone smashing a window with a rock to enter the store, causing over $10,000 in damages. Stolen items included a cash box, money bags, and a Sony camera. Kim Phillips, the co-op’s executive director, expressed heartbreak but also compassion. We’ll have closing comments after this.

Grace is first generation Italian Australian. Her parents immigrated from Southern Italy to Australia when they were young. Rosa and Alfredo, Grace's parents, met many years later in Australia and started their family of four girls. Rosa was one of nine children and she was fifteen when landing in Australia. Alfredo lost both his parents at five years old and had a rough childhood. He was a victim of abuse and moved from house to house as a child. De Angeli reflects saying "he did the best he could with what he had."Grace insists "that it was a cultural thing" as to why her mother stayed throughout many years of emotional, verbal and physical abuse. Eventually, Grace and her younger sister became targets as well. It was always the fear and bullying tactic that their father used especially against their mom, Rosa. Grace says that her father would often scream at her mother "you either stay or you die" or "you leave, I'll kill you." So her mother stayed out of fear. "We were all brought up with the fear that if we did something wrong we would be killed," remarks Grace. "When I think back to my childhood I wasn't protected by my mother, but she taught me who not to be when I grew up."One would think that this would take a real tole on Grace's life and her future. But the best news is that with the help of her husband and many others, Grace has learned how to transform her life and heal from her scars of her father plus how to beat Breast Cancer with many different treatments and therapies including Eastern and Western Medicines, mind over matter and the list goes on and on. She is a true inspiration. She declares "it doesn't matter where you are in your journey, whether stage 1 or stage 4 breast cancer OR any illness, you need to get things right in your soul and spirit, where you are your most authentic self." She continues, "it doesn't matter as long as you are honest and liberated within yourself, it doesn't matter what happens next."For a young woman who at twenty one years old had contemplated suicide, to becoming this force of nature to heal not only herself but help others on their individual journey is remarkable.There's so much more to this story so please do listen to the episode in it's entirety. Grace is emphatic when saying "we were put on this planet to be ourself. If you can be the best version of yourself, you've done it."To find Grace's podcast use on link below:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/id1552339592 "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

PREVIEW. HEADLINE TOPIC: Accidental Discovery of Ionic Liquid and its Implications for Extraterrestrial Life GUEST NAME: Professor Sara Seager GUEST NAME AND TITLE: Professor Sara Seager of MIT, astrophysicist, planetary scientist, and physicist PREVIEW: Professor Sara Seager details her post-doc Rajna Agarwal's accidental discovery of ionic liquid while simulating Venus's environment. The experiment involved evaporating concentrated sulfuric acid and organic molecules, expecting complete evaporation under low pressure. However, a persistent tiny liquid residue was found, identified as an ionic liquid. This unexpected finding, not water, could profoundly impact the search for organic life beyond Earth or reveal new insights into life on other planets, particularly in Venus's sulfuric acid clouds. Seager will discuss this further on "Hotel Mars" with David Livingston. 1954
Targeted probiotic strains improve endurance, strength, recovery, and mental resilience by supporting gut integrity, reducing inflammation, and enhancing nutrient absorption Intense training damages your gut lining and weakens immunity, but probiotics help maintain barrier function and prevent bacterial toxins from triggering systemic inflammation Specific strains deliver specific benefits, such as Lactobacillus plantarum for endurance, Bacillus coagulans for muscle recovery, and Lactobacillus casei for stress reduction Supporting butyrate-producing bacteria fuels intestinal cells, improves lipid metabolism, and enhances oxidative muscle fibers for sustained aerobic performance Probiotics are most effective when introduced after gut healing, paired with a diet free from linoleic acid–rich vegetable oils and supported by prebiotic foods to maintain microbial balance
As their name suggests, “forever chemicals” have extraordinary staying power. When these nearly indestructible compounds find their way into our soil and water, they don't break down for hundreds or thousands of years. PFAS – the name for these synthetic chemicals – isn't just in our natural environment. Scientists have found it everywhere, including in the blood of nearly every living being. In this episode, we talk to the reporter who broke open the story about a decades-long corporate coverup regarding forever chemicals, look at what we know about their health effects, and consider how a kneecapping of the EPA's regulatory power may weaken the best tool we have for protecting ourselves from PFAS contamination. Guests: Nathaniel Rich – Author of “Second Nature: Scenes from a World Remade,” and the New York Times Magazine article, “The Lawyer Who Became Dupont's Worst Nightmare” Rachel Frazin – Energy and Environment Policy reporter for The Hill, co-author of “Poisoning the Well: How Forever Chemicals Contaminated America” Janet McCabe – visiting professor at the Robert McKinney School of Law at Indiana University, former deputy administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency Featuring music by Dewey Dellay and Jun Miyake You can get early access to ad-free versions of every episode by joining us on Patreon.

A bright star and planet team up with the Moon early tomorrow to form a tight, beautiful triangle. Pollux will stand close to the lower left of the Moon, with much brighter Jupiter about the same distance to the lower right of the Moon. Pollux is the brightest star of Gemini, while Jupiter is a planet. Jupiter is by far the giant of the solar system. It’s more than twice as massive as all the other planets combined. And it’s about 11 times the diameter of Earth. That makes it big enough to hold 1300 Earths. But a recent study says that Jupiter might have been much bigger during its infancy – about two or two-and-a-half times its current diameter. That would have made it big enough to hold thousands of Earths. Scientists came to that conclusion by studying the orbits of two of Jupiter’s small, close-in moons. The orbits are slightly tilted. Simulations showed that the moons were pushed into those orbits by the larger moon Io as it moved away from Jupiter. Those calculations revealed Jupiter’s original size and other details. Jupiter probably formed in just a few million years – much quicker than most of the other planets. By then, the supply of planet-making materials had dried up. So Jupiter’s gravity began squeezing it and making it spin faster. Eventually, the planet reached a point where it couldn’t shrink any farther – leaving the smaller but still-giant world we see today. Script by Damond Benningfield
In the U.S., there are about 100,000 monkeys, baboons, and other primates living in captivity to support scientific research. About 5,000 of them are at OHSU’s Oregon National Primate Research Center. That’s where researchers do experiments on monkeys to try to get clear data about things like cannabis use during pregnancy, and to find cures for diseases like HIV. Animal rights activists have argued for decades that the center should be closed. And they’re gaining momentum with support from Oregon’s governor and some lawmakers. In addition, scientists who oppose using animals in research argue that the practice has become obsolete and is hindering, not helping the effort to find cures. OPB health reporter Amelia Templeton recently visited the Oregon National Primate Research Center and talked to a lot of smart people on all sides of this complex topic. She joins us to share her reporting.

Scientists say time travel requires bending space-time, manipulating gravity, or approaching light speed. The Bible says God did it with a word - and the evidence might surprise you. From boats that teleport instantly to shadows that run backward on sundials, the Bible contains documented cases of time manipulation that mirror modern quantum physics. In this message, we explore what happens when the Creator of time decides to break His own rules of space and time.SERMON TRANSCRIPT…https://weirddarkness.com/COTU-TimeTravelInTheBible“Outer Twilight Zone Limits” music by Chan Walrus: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pEDGN_u4t4“Church Of The Undead” theme music by Epidemic Sound.

Malaria kills more than half a million people a year, and an effective vaccine has been elusive. But a San Antonio malaria researcher and her team have discovered a vulnerability in the malaria parasite's method of avoiding the human immune system that may make all the difference.
Stargate program veteran and pioneering consciousness researcher, Dean Radin, dives into quantum reality, MK Ultra, the Telepathy Tapes, and more on episode 217 of the Far Out with Faust podcast.For decades, Radin has been at the forefront of parapsychology and consciousness research. As chief scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences, he has published over 300 scientific papers and authored acclaimed books including Real Magic and his forthcoming The Science of Magic. Radin has held research appointments at Bell Labs, Princeton, and SRI International, and he has been featured in The Telepathy Tapes, bringing his groundbreaking work on psychic phenomena to a wider audience.In this electrifying conversation, Radin and Faust unravel the deeper truths behind the CIA's Stargate program and the lasting shadow of MK Ultra. They explore the clash between materialist science and quantum reality, the emerging genetic research on psychic ability, and the controversial intersection of Big Tech, societal control, and human consciousness. From telepathy among non-speaking autistic individuals to the scientific basis for what ancient traditions called “magic,” Radin makes the case that consciousness may be fundamental to reality itself.In this episode:Stargate vs. MK Ultra: Psychic espionage, mind control, and the hidden history of government programsHavana Syndrome: The controversial phenomenon Radin says points to something far more sinisterThe Telepathy Tapes: Inside the fight over telepathy experiments with non-speaking autistic individualsScientists & Psi: Why so many elite academics secretly admit strange phenomena have happened to themPsi & Human Creativity: How psychic experiences may have shaped science, art, and religionQuantum Reality Clash: What happens when classical physics collides with consciousnessThe Psychic Genome: Could genetic and epigenetic research unlock hidden abilities?Next-Gen Psi Tech: From lab studies to speculation about enhancing intuition itselfReal Magic Revealed: Ancient rituals meet modern science in Radin's groundbreaking workTaboo & Suppression: How institutions and culture keep psi in the shadowsExeter University's Masters in Magic: Academia finally dares to study the mysticalAlgorithms of Control: From Cold War experiments to Big Tech's digital cage… and much more!

10 years ago we first saw gravitational waves — what we've seen sinceIn September 2015, LIGO—or Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory—captured the ripples in spacetime produced by the cataclysmic merger of two black holes, from over a billion light years away. This discovery confirmed Einstein's hypothesis about gravitational waves and gave astronomers a new way to explore the cosmos. In the decade since, LIGO's scientific team, including physicist Nergis Mavalvala, has been busy, including new results announced this week confirming a 50-year-old prediction by Stephen Hawking about how black holes merge. Mavalvala is the dean of the school of science and the Curtis and Kathleen Marble Professor of Physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The latest discovery was reported in the journal Physical Review Letters.What wild killer whales sharing food with humans says about their intelligenceAfter an experience of being offered a recently killed seabird by an Orca, cetologist Jared Towers decided to document other instances of killer whales approaching humans to share a snack. Towers, the executive director of the marine research nonprofit Bay Cetology, found dozens of examples of this behaviour. It's a perhaps unique example of a wild creature sharing food with humans for its own diversion and curiosity. The research was published in the Journal of Comparative Psychology.Sweat science — This research really was 90% perspirationWhile the biology of perspiration is relatively well understood, the physical process by which water excreted from our skin cools us is not. This motivated engineer Konrad Rykaczewski to strap himself into a specialized full-body, tube-filled suit to observe how water emerges from sweat glands over the skin. Rykaczewski, a thermal and materials engineer at Arizona State University, found that sweat rises out of sweat glands in pools, eventually spilling out and soaking the top layer of the skin. The research was published in the Journal of the Royal Society Interface.What came first, the tomato or the potato?As it turns out, the potato came from the tomato. By tracking their genetic lineage, an international team of researchers, including University of British Columbia botanist Loren Rieseberg, have found that the noble potato actually resulted from the tomato naturally cross-breeding with another unrelated species, more than eight million years ago. The research was published in the journal Cell.Bringing science education to the incarceratedWe speak with a scientist who spent much of his summer working in Canadian prisons doing brief, but intense, science education courses. Phil Heron created the Think Like a Scientist program to teach critical thinking skills to those who may have had negative experiences with education. He believes that the scientific method will help people understand how failure in life, as in science, can be a pathway to success.We spoke to:Phil Heron, assistant professor at the University of Toronto, Scarborough campus, in the department of physical and environmental sciences and founder of the Think Like a Scientist program.Dalton Harrison, founder of Standfast Productions and former program participant finishing a masters degree in criminal justice and criminology.Phoenix Griffin, university student in criminal justice and criminology and former program participant.Jamie Williams, a director with Spectrum First Education and a co-facilitator of Think Like a Scientist.
“Terrarium” While investigating a peculiar area of uncharted space—a region legendary for strange phenomena—the Enterprise finds it impossible to get proper reading from probes due to highly volatile gravimetric waves. Ortegas flies the shuttle Archimedes into the turmoil to gather data firsthand. But when a wormhole suddenly opens up and sends the shuttle tumbling into a moon orbiting a gas giant, Ortegas must fight to survive. She has to find shelter, food, and water, but there's one obstacle she wasn't counting on: the Gorn. With the clock ticking before the moon passes through the planet's thermosphere, the two enemies find common ground. When the Enterprise finally arrives to rescue them, it is revealed that the whole situation was just a test staged by the Metrons. In this episode of Saddle Up! hosts C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing continue our journey through Strange New Worlds with “Terrarium.” We discuss the connection to the Original Series classic "Arena," character development for Ortegas, Uhura's stint as a scientist, the Metrons, and more.

Win/win!In this episode of SpaceTime, we delve into some astounding revelations in solar physics and planetary science, including the extreme temperatures of solar flares, new insights into the formation of Jupiter's core, and the tantalising possibility of life evolving on nearby exoplanets.Solar Flares Hotter Than Ever ImaginedRecent research has revealed that solar flares can reach temperatures exceeding 60 million degrees Celsius, a staggering six and a half times hotter than previously believed. This groundbreaking finding, published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters, may provide answers to a long-standing mystery regarding solar flare spectral lines. The study suggests that positively charged particles, or ions, are heated more intensely than electrons during these explosive events, leading to a significant revision of our understanding of solar flare dynamics.New Insights into Jupiter's Core FormationA new study challenges previous theories regarding the formation of Jupiter's core, suggesting that a giant impact may not be responsible for the planet's dilute core structure. Instead, it appears that Jupiter's core formed gradually through the absorption of heavy and light materials during its evolution. This revelation, supported by advanced computer simulations, indicates that the core does not have a distinct boundary but rather blends smoothly into the surrounding hydrogen layers, reshaping our understanding of gas giant formation.Could Life Thrive on Nearby Exoplanets?Exciting new research posits that life may be evolving right now on some of Earth's nearest exoplanets, despite the high levels of radiation they receive. Scientists have drawn parallels between the harsh conditions on these exoplanets and early Earth, where life first emerged amidst extreme ultraviolet radiation. This research highlights the potential for habitability on planets like Proxima b, igniting further interest in the search for extraterrestrial life.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesAstrophysical Journal Lettershttps://iopscience.iop.org/journal/2041-8205Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Societyhttps://academic.oup.com/mnrasCornell Universityhttps://www.cornell.edu/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.Solar Flares Hotter Than Ever ImaginedNew Insights into Jupiter's Core FormationCould Life Thrive on Nearby Exoplanets?

E. coli O157:H7 is one of the leading causes of severe foodborne illness, and romaine lettuce has repeatedly been implicated in widespread outbreaks of this pathogen A Cornell University study that traced contamination from field to table found that irrigation practices are the dominant factor in whether lettuce becomes a carrier of E. coli Lettuce irrigated with untreated surface water sprayed overhead carried the greatest contamination risk, while switching to furrow or drip irrigation reduced illness by over 96% The study showed that consumer washing only lowered risk by 28%, reinforcing that on-farm prevention through safer irrigation is essential to protect lettuce before harvest Although prevention starts with better farm practices, there are still strategies to lower your risk at home, including staying updated on recalls, choosing fresher local produce, washing and storing them properly, and even growing your own food
Advocacy for scientists is a skill that can transform how research impacts the real world. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, host Andrew Lewin reflects on an article by Melissa Varga from the Union of Concerned Scientists that encourages scientists to step into advocacy roles. Andrew shares why many researchers hesitate to speak out, the cultural challenges within academia, and how advocacy can be integrated into a science career without sacrificing credibility. Ocean conservation also depends on people outside the scientific community. Andrew emphasizes that anyone, scientist or not, can play a role in advocating for the ocean. From joining local campaigns to supporting policy initiatives, small steps build a movement that strengthens the voice for conservation. This episode highlights how advocacy can feel intimidating at first but ultimately becomes a natural extension of caring for the ocean.

Flossing takes only minutes yet slashes health risks, with regular flossers showing up to 44% lower odds of certain strokes and reduced chances of irregular heart rhythms Long-term research following more than 6,000 adults found flossing even once a week is linked to healthier arteries, fewer strokes, and protection against atrial fibrillation (AFib), a dangerous heart rhythm disorder Scientists concluded that flossing itself stood out as protective, offering benefits independent of brushing, dentist visits, or other lifestyle habits that usually influence cardiovascular and overall health outcomes Gum bacteria that escape into the bloodstream trigger inflammation, artery hardening, and clots; flossing interrupts this chain reaction, giving your heart and brain measurable protection over time Beyond heart health, studies show flossing daily reduces all-cause mortality by lowering systemic inflammation, suggesting this habit not only extends life but also safeguards brain function and memory
