In this fifth episode of our series exploring CCEF's seven distinctives, Gunner Gundersen is joined by Jonathan Holmes, Darby Strickland, and Lauren Whitman to discuss our fifth distinctive: "Help and change follow a path, but not a script." Together they explore the importance of dependence on the Lord and his work in the lives of those we help. They consider the importance of seeking input from others, the dangers of following a script, how to navigate our feelings of inadequacy, and why this distinctive matters for our local churches. Rather than fixing problems or changing others, our role is to be fellow travelers on the path God is already leading them on.

David and Rachel discuss the tragic sinking of the ferry Jan Heweliusz. Script by Marcel.

There’s just one place to catch a wave outside Earth: Titan, the largest moon of Saturn. It’s the only other world in the solar system with bodies of liquid on its surface. And the waves there could reach heights of 10 feet. But future surfers will need to dress carefully; the surface temperature is almost 300 degrees below zero. Titan is half-again the size of Earth’s moon, and it has a dense atmosphere. Rain fills its lakes and seas with liquid methane, ethane, and nitrogen. The largest sea covers about 200,000 square miles – twice the area of all the Great Lakes combined. It could be several hundred feet deep. The Cassini spacecraft used radar to measure Titan’s ponds. It saw waves of no more than an inch or so high. But a recent study says the waves could get a lot bigger. Based on 20 years of observations of waves on Lake Superior, scientists built a computer model of how waves might work on other worlds. The model accounted for gravity, the pressure of the atmosphere, and the properties of the liquid. When the model was applied to Titan, it showed that even gentle breezes could whip up some big waves. But the waves would move more slowly than those on Earth – a slow-motion trip across the sea. Saturn looks like a bright star close to our moon the next couple of mornings. It’ll stand to the left of the Moon at dawn tomorrow, and the lower right of the Moon on Tuesday.

Send us Fan MailYou take the pill, close the cabinet, and move on with your day. But that “five-second” habit depends on a globe-spanning pharmaceutical supply chain that can break in ways most of us never see until the pharmacy says, “Try next week.” I'm Keith, and I'm kicking off a new series on the supply chain running in the background by following one of the most common prescriptions in America, the generic statin tablet, all the way back through wholesalers, manufacturing, and raw chemical inputs.We dig into the uncomfortable mechanics: pharmacies running just in time inventory with only a few days of stock, how a small number of distributors can shape who gets medication during shortages, and why so many generic drugs trace back to manufacturing in India and chemical inputs from China. From there, we talk about the real vulnerabilities that create medication shortages, including infrequent foreign inspections, quality failures and contamination recalls, and the risk of a single factory or single input becoming a worldwide bottleneck.Then we shift from awareness to action. I lay out a practical preparedness framework you can use tonight: classify each medication by how critical it is, ask for a 90-day script when appropriate, refill early to build a buffer, set up a secondary source like mail order, and ask your doctor what the backup medication plan is before you need it. If you want a clear, common-sense guide to medication preparedness, pharmaceutical supply chain risk, and realistic steps to protect your household, this one is for you.Subscribe, share the episode with someone managing chronic meds, and drop a review so more people can find the series.https://augasonfarms.com?sca_ref=9315862.VpHzogdDNuAugason FarmsSupport the podcast.

If you look at society through binoculars — not from a distance, not through headlines, but close up — you'll see something strange happening.

The dawn twilight has a bright visitor the next few mornings – the planet Mercury. It’s farthest from the Sun for its current morning appearance. It looks like a bright star, but it’s so low in the sky that it’s tough to find. Mercury holds an important spot in the history of astronomy and physics. It provided some of the first confirmation of General Relativity – Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity. Mercury’s orbit around the Sun is lopsided, so the planet’s distance from the Sun varies. For a long time, astronomers had seen that the orbit’s closest point shifted a tiny bit over time. Isaac Newton’s laws of gravity explained most of the difference. But there was still a tiny amount that couldn’t be accounted for. Einstein’s theory of gravity held that massive bodies warp the space around them. Since Mercury is the Sun’s closest planet, its orbit is influenced by that “warpage” more strongly than any other planet’s. In fact, general relativity accounted precisely for the shift in the orbit. So Mercury’s orbit provided some of the first evidence to support general relativity – a new way of thinking about gravity. Look for Mercury quite low in the eastern sky during the waxing twilight. It’ll shine a little brighter each day over the next few mornings. But it’ll also drop a little closer to the Sun, so you’ll need a clear horizon to spot it. Tomorrow: catching waves.

Posting "just listed" and still feel invisible? The storybrand marketing framework real estate agents actually use looks nothing like what you're doing right now.I used to be the worst kind of marketer. Every post was about me, my new listing, my win, my hustle. Nobody cared and nobody called. Once I flipped the script and became the guide instead of the hero, everything changed, especially with sellers who had already been burned by another agent. That's the entire idea behind the storybrand marketing framework real estate agents are catching onto now.In this breakdown I walk through the exact real estate branding mistakes that were quietly killing my response rate, and the shift that turned my content into something people actually acted on. This isn't theory. It's the same approach that helped me pick up 75 expired listings in a single year.✅ Why most agents are making the same real estate agent marketing mistakes without even realizing it✅ How real estate storytelling marketing gets sellers to see themselves in your posts instead of watching you brag✅ The exact expired listing cold call script I use when I call a seller whose listing just fell through✅ Why your current real estate social media mistakes are costing you calls, not just likes✅ How to actually become the guide not the hero in real estate so sellers trust you before you ever pick up the phone✅ An updated expired listing script for 2026 built for how sellers are actually thinking right now✅ How to use storybrand for real estate agents without sounding like a corporate pitch deckIf you've ever wondered how to position yourself as a guide not the hero, this is the entire mechanism, no fluff, no theory, just what worked on real calls with real sellers.

Most filmmakers wait until after production to identify their audience and develop a distribution strategy. In this partner episode, GG Hawkins speaks with Greenlight Coverage founder Jack Zhang and Level 33 Entertainment Vice President Andreas Olavarria about evaluating a screenplay's commercial potential before production begins. They explain how AI-assisted script coverage can support—not replace—human decision-making, what distributors look for when assessing independent films, and how the Greenlight List gives screenwriters a path toward $100,000 in equity financing and guaranteed distribution. In this episode, No Film School's GG Hawkins and guests Jack Zhang and Andreas Olavarria discuss... Why filmmakers should consider their target audience, key art, trailer, genre, and distribution strategy while developing the screenplay How Greenlight Coverage uses data science and AI-assisted analysis to evaluate screenplays How Jack developed the platform using data from thousands of films and hundreds of millions of audience data points Why AI script coverage should function as an initial evaluation tool rather than a replacement for human readers How the Greenlight List combines an algorithmic first pass with evaluation by experienced industry professionals What separates a well-written screenplay from a commercially viable independent film Why contained concepts can be more practical for independent filmmakers and investors How originality, plot construction, character development, theme, and audience positioning affect a project's score Why low-budget horror still requires a specific audience and marketing strategy The built-in audiences for horror, thrillers, romance, and Hallmark- or Lifetime-style films How theatrical, TVOD, SVOD, and AVOD distribution windows affect independent film development Why filmmakers may need to hook viewers within the first five minutes on ad-supported streaming platforms How cast members, executive producers, and creators with established audiences can strengthen a film's marketability How the Greenlight List offers its grand prize winner $100,000 in equity financing and guaranteed distribution through Level 33 Entertainment Why writers should use submission deadlines as concrete milestones for completing their screenplays Memorable Quotes: “I think it's so important that filmmakers look at what the end product will be and how they're going to connect that film, that story, with a target audience.” “It has to have a specific audience itch that you're trying to scratch, or it's just going to be one of the thousands of films produced out there sitting on the shelf, unfortunately.” “The film itself should hook the audience in whatever genre in the first five minutes.” “Don't miss a deadline.

The Sun is getting bigger, hotter, and brighter. The change isn’t enough to notice during a human lifetime – or even a thousand lifetimes. It plays out over hundreds of millions of years. And it’s all the result of changes deep inside our star. Like all stars in the prime phase of life, the Sun is “fusing” atoms of hydrogen in its core to make helium. That generates the energy that makes the Sun shine. As the amount of helium builds up, the core gets denser, so gravity squeezes it more tightly. That speeds up the fusion reactions, making the core even hotter. Radiation from the hotter core pushes on the Sun’s outer layers, making the Sun bigger. It also makes its surface hotter. The combination of bigger and hotter makes the Sun brighter. So over its four-and-a-half-billion-year lifetime, our star has grown about 15 percent wider, and perhaps 40 percent brighter. That should mean that the young Earth would have been an iceball. But studies suggest the atmosphere was much thicker when Earth was young. The atmosphere also contained much more carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. They trapped more heat, keeping Earth from freezing over. The Sun’s bigger-hotter-brighter trend will continue. In perhaps a billion to two billion years, it’ll be so hot and bright that Earth’s air and oceans will boil away. That will reduce our planet to a bare cinder. Script by Damond Benningfield

In ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK (1981), John Carpenter gambled his biggest budget yet on transforming a former Disney child star into the ultimate anti-authority badass. Part 1 of our deep diver covers the genesis of Snake Plissken, starting with Carpenter pulling a shelved script out of his car trunk to satisfy a studio contract. We look at the fight to cast Kurt Russell over established tough guys like Charles Bronson, the bizarre brilliance of Donald Pleasence as the President, and the punishing reality of shooting entirely at night in the rubble of East St. Louis.

Travis Chappell joins David Guttman for a deeply personal conversation about growing up in a highly restrictive religious environment, finding the courage to question long-held beliefs, and ultimately forging his own path. Travis shares how leaving behind the only life he'd ever known led him into sales, entrepreneurship, and podcasting—and why independent thinking has been one of the greatest drivers of his personal and financial success. On this episode we talk about: Growing up in a fundamentalist religious community and overcoming groupthink The difficult decision to leave a predetermined career path in ministry How door-to-door sales became the unexpected gateway to entrepreneurship Rebuilding relationships and creating a powerful network from scratch Why questioning assumptions and thinking independently leads to greater freedom and opportunity Top 3 Takeaways The most important decisions in life should come from your own values—not from expectations placed on you by family, institutions, or society. Personal growth often begins by asking difficult questions and being willing to challenge beliefs you've always accepted as truth. Your network, skills, and career can all be rebuilt. Starting over is difficult, but it also creates opportunities to build a life that's authentically yours. Notable Quotes "I am the only person who has to wake up with me every single day." "Accept truth wherever you find it. Truth is never afraid of questioning." "Release yourself from the path other people chose for you and start asking, 'What do I actually want?'"

Eta Aquilae is big, bright, and unsteady. Over a bit more than seven days, the star pulses in and out like a beating heart. That causes its brightness to change. How it changes makes the star a good “standard candle” – a type of object that astronomers use to measure the scale of the universe. Eta Aquilae is a Cepheid variable – the first one ever discovered. Such stars brighten and fade in a predictable way. By timing the cycle, astronomers can determine the star’s true brightness. Comparing that to how bright the star looks allows them to calculate the star’s distance. Cepheids are bright enough to see hundreds of millions of light-years away – in galaxies beyond the Milky Way. To go even farther, astronomers rely on another type of standard candle: the exploding stars known as Type Ia supernovas. Like the Cepheids, the way they brighten and fade reveals their true brightness. Some of them appear in galaxies with Cepheids, where we already know their distance. That provides a way to calibrate all of the supernovas, which can be seen from billions of light-years away. Of course, it’s all a little more complicated than that. There are different classes of Cepheids, for example. So astronomers have to understand all the details – making sure that a standard candle really is a good distance marker. Eta Aquilae is high above the Moon in early evening, near Altair, its constellation’s brightest star. Script by Damond Benningfield

Most self-talk content tells you how to change the inner critic. This episode goes somewhere different — tracing where it actually came from. None of your self-talk is originally yours. You borrowed it from instructors, parents, breeders, competitors, score sheets, and a sport culture built on public performance and perfectionism. Once you know that, everything shifts. This episode is about tracing the source, creating distance from thoughts that were never yours to begin with, and deciding what actually belongs in the ring with you.

Saturn feels like it has a big region of the early morning sky practically to itself right now. The giant planet climbs into good view after midnight, and stands high in the south at first light. It looks like a bright golden star. You have to scan a long way in every direction to find another planet or star that rivals it. Saturn is traveling through Pisces, skimming along the border with Cetus. That region of the sky is well below the Milky Way – the hazy band of light that outlines the disk of the Milky Way Galaxy. When we look at the Milky Way, we’re looking into the most heavily populated part of the galaxy. So not only are there a lot more stars in and around that band, there are a lot more bright stars. At the same time, Saturn’s location is a quarter of the way around the sky from the center of the galaxy, which is in Sagittarius. Again, that means we’re looking into more thinly settled parts of the galaxy. It’s like looking toward the suburbs of a major city instead of its busy downtown – there’s just a lot less to see. Saturn is so far from the Sun that it takes the planet about 30 years to make one full circle against the starry background. So the planet will stay in this dimly settled region of the sky for a couple of years – making it especially easy to find as you look into the darkness. Tomorrow: bright “mile markers” for measuring the scale of the universe. Script by Damond Benningfield

The Script's Danny O'Donoghue joins Mark Millar on the XS Noize Podcast to discuss the ideas, stories and songwriting behind the band's new album, "The User's Guide to Being Human." Danny reveals how an unusual moment in Los Angeles inspired the album's title, why he returned to the studio within a week of finishing the Satellites tour, and how sobriety has changed his approach to making music. He also discusses reuniting with longtime collaborators Andrew Frampton, Steve Kipner and Jimbo Barry, carrying Mark Sheehan's influence forward, and why a great lyric remains at the heart of The Script's music. The conversation explores the meaning behind "Man in the Arena," friendship and forgiveness in "The Crowd Was Singing Wonderwall," and the wordplay behind new songs "Grow Old with Grace" and "Scars Align." Elsewhere, Danny reflects on the difficult years before The Script found success, what achievement means to him today, and why songs such as "The Man Who Can't Be Moved" continue to connect with new generations nearly twenty years later. At its heart, this episode is about songwriting, resilience, forgiveness and the light and shade of being human. "The User's Guide to Being Human" will be released on 14 August 2026.

Join Umberto Bongianino as he walks us through one of the western Islamic world's least appreciated artistic treasures: its calligraphy. For years, Maghribi calligraphy has been treated as amateurish, archaic, and unruly in contrast with the highly theorised conventions of Mashriqi calligraphy in the so-called centre of the Islamic world of Egypt, the Levant, and Anatolia. In this episode, Umberto challenges this view, emphasising the interaction of Maghribi calligraphy with multiple traditions specific to its geographical milieu.Maghribi calligraphy is traditionally written with a pointed tip (Ar. قلم مدبب) meaning that the line is always of equal thickness. It features distinctive curved letter forms, extended horizontals, and notation of certain Arabic letters below the main body.Umberto's work on Maghribi calligraphy forms part of CallFront, a collaborative research project that attempts to draw attention to the calligraphic traditions of the “frontiers” of the Islamic world, amongst them Maghribi, but also sub-Saharan Africa, South East Asia, and China.Umberto Bongianino is Samir Shamma Associate Professor of Numismatics, Epigraphy, and Material Culture at the Khalili Research Centre, University of Oxford. His research focuses on Arabic epigraphy, palaeography, the aesthetic of inscribed objects, and the arts of the book in the western Islamic world. His recent monograph is titled The Manuscript Tradition of the Islamic West: Maghribī Round Scripts and the Andalusī Identity.This episode is part of our series Peripheries which seeks to push our understanding of the cultural heritage of the Islamic world away from the traditional centres that we associate with it. With a fantastic range of guests we will examine places and topics often considered peripheral to the Islamic world and understand why they are in fact of central importance to the region's cultural heritage, from Armenia to England, from Ethiopia to West Africa.

Welcome back to Words That Burn, the poetry podcast taking a closer look at poetry. In this episode, host Benjamin Collopy offers a close reading of Kaveh Akbar's "Famous Americans and Why They Were Wrong", from his 2021 collection Pilgrim Bell.The poem runs to seven couplets and moves from a ribbon tied around an oak tree to a wish that somebody forgets you today. Benjamin situates Akbar as a poet formed by prayer and by place, tracing the poet's biography from a boy reciting Arabic he could not translate to a writer preoccupied with what empire does to language.In This Episode, I Explore:The Ribbon and the Hostage Crisis: Why the opening image reads so strangely to a non American audience, and how the yellow ribbon curdled from a welcome into a warning after 1979. We follow the poem discussion through the oak's roots sinking into the dirt and the heart that sinks alongside them, and ask what exactly is seeping into whom.Akbar's Ghazal: A look at the form, its couplets, its refrains, and the strict rules Akbar declines to follow. The ghazal is famous for what Agha Shahid Ali called its formal disunity, and that disunity turns out to be the literary technique doing the heaviest lifting here. We break down how enjambment carries meaning across couplets that seem unrelated on the page, one of several literary devices worth slowing down for.Data at the Centre of a Heart: The sinking library, the architect who forgot the weight of the books, and Akbar's argument that empire uses abstraction to cudgel us into idleness. We look at what the word "data" is doing in a poem that also treats untranslated prayer as a kind of data, and why only one of those is sacred.The Mercy of Being Forgotten: Why a poem about erasure ends by wishing for it. Visibility inside an empire is rarely a gift, and Akbar's closing hope is offered in the grammar of prayer, which is to say with no guarantee anyone is listening.Accessible enough for poetry for beginners and no prior reading required. As always, this poetry interpretation belongs to Benjamin and is very much up for debate.

Gliese 710 isn’t much to look at. It’s smaller and lighter than the Sun, and just one-tenth as bright. So from its current distance of 62 light-years, it’s much too faint to see with the eye alone. But come back in about 1.3 million years and it’ll be a different story. The star will shine about three times brighter than Sirius, the night’s current brightest star. All the stars are on the move. Like the Sun, they’re orbiting the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. Each star follows its own path, so its direction and speed are a little different from all the other stars. Some stars are moving toward us, while others are moving away. Gliese 710 is moving toward the Sun at more than a quarter of a billion miles per year. Studies have shown that it’ll pass just one-sixth of a light-year away – just four percent the distance to the current closest neighbor. That’s closer than any other star will approach the Sun over the next several million years. Gliese 710 will pass through the Oort Cloud – a huge shell of rocky, icy bodies that surrounds the Sun. That will push many of those objects toward the Sun. Some of them could slam into Earth – some un-neighborly gifts from a close neighbor. Gliese 710 is in Serpens, the serpent. The star is about half way up the south-southeastern sky at nightfall. You need a telescope to see it – for now. Script by Damond Benningfield

In this episode, Bart speaks with Rabih El Khodr, author of The Way Out of Burnout, about what burnout really is, how to recognize it, and what it takes to overcome it. Drawing on research in psychology and neuroscience as well as his own personal experiences, Rabih challenges the conventional view that burnout is the result of working too hard, arguing instead that it often stems from the gap between our authentic selves and the roles we feel we need to play at work. Central to his work is the idea that burnout begins when we start following survival scripts, a concept he pairs with his F.L.O.W. Framework, a practical approach to identifying and changing the patterns that contribute to burnout. The conversation also offers valuable insights for leaders on how to spot burnout in their teams and support them before it becomes overwhelming. As the demands on leaders continue to intensify, Rabih's perspective offers a fresh approach to sustaining high performance without sacrificing oneself in the process.

Permanent Daylight Saving Time MUST BE STOPPED! Improvement Warrior Podcast Episode #90Hey Improvement Warriors, Jason Yun here — welcome back to the Improvement Warrior Podcast, Episode 90. I'm a former gym owner and food-and-exercise guy who finally saw the light (literally). Since 2018 I've been deep in the teachings of Dr. Jack Kruse and circadian biology. My core message never changes: your light environment is more important than food or exercise. In this episode we're tackling something urgent and timely — the push for Permanent Daylight Saving Time. Politicians are once again trying to lock us into dark winter mornings forever. I'll break down exactly why this is a biological disaster, how it wrecks your mitochondria, sleep, hormones, and energy, and what we must do to stop it. Grab your blue blockers, get some real sunlight if you can, and let's go. Time Stamp and Highlights of the show0:00 – 4:30 – Cold open & welcome. Jason introduces Episode 90 and the core thesis: Permanent Daylight Saving Time must be stopped. 4:30 – 12:00 – Quick recap of past DST episodes (especially Episode 82 “Daylight Saving Time Sucks”) and why the current political push (Sunshine Protection Act) is different and more dangerous. 12:00 – 22:00 – History of DST, energy-saving myths debunked, and the real biological cost of shifting clocks away from solar time. 22:00 – 34:00 – Deep dive into circadian biology: morning sunlight as the master zeitgeber, SCN, melatonin, cortisol, and why late winter sunrises under permanent DST create chronic misalignment (effectively permanent social jet lag). 34:00 – 42:00 – Health consequences: increased accidents, heart attacks, depression, cancer risk gradients across time zones, school performance, and mitochondrial dysfunction. 42:00 – 52:00 – Outdoor sunlight segment (shirtless, grounded). Live demonstration of proper morning light exposure and why dark mornings destroy the signal. 52:00 – 60:00 – Practical action steps: what individuals can do right now, how to contact legislators, better alternative (permanent Standard Time), and tie-in to full circadian lifestyle.

In April, engineers had to shut down one of the scientific instruments aboard the Voyager 1 spacecraft. The device had been studying charged particles in the interstellar medium – the space between the stars. But Voyager is slowly losing power, so the instrument was shut down to help extend the craft’s life. Voyager 1 is the most-distant object ever sent into space – 16 billion miles from Earth. At that range, it takes almost 24 hours for its radio transmissions to reach Earth. The craft and its twin, Voyager 2, were launched in the summer of 1977. Their mission was to study the giant planets Jupiter and Saturn. Voyager 2 continued on to Uranus and Neptune. Since then, both craft have just kept on going. In 2012, Voyager 1 became the first craft to leave the solar system. It passed outside the magnetic “bubble” generated by the Sun. Voyager 2 followed in 2018. Both Voyagers are powered by the radioactive decay of plutonium. Today, that generates less than half as much energy as it did at launch. So as the power levels have dropped, engineers have shut off most of the scientific instruments. Two instruments are still going on Voyager 1 – studying the space between the stars. In 300,000 years, the craft is expected to fly about one light-year from a small, faint star that’s 47 light-years away – a dead emissary from the people of Earth. Script by Damond Benningfield

July 27, 2026 – Chase Taylor flies solo to break down a dramatic reversal in oil prices following geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. He explains why the market sold off despite major infrastructure damage, what to watch next, and why the duration of supply disruptions matters far more than the initial headlines. Chase also covers Nvidia, Chinese AI, software, semiconductors, and the key market themes investors should be watching this week.

EP152: The Stories We Tell Ourselves - How our mind quickly writes the script   It's been a while friend.  I have been doing a lot of thinking lately and I wanted someone to share my thinking with. Someone that can think along with me.  Because the power of thinking is huge. It's life changing and it comes from where you least expect it.  So here we are then. Technically episode 152, but a new chapter.    We don't need to have all the answers, but we do need to explore the ideas that shape our lives, so that in time, we can make sense of our paths.  Thanks for thinking along with me.   

The religion of ancient Egypt said that when a king died, his soul ascended to the heavens to join with the god Osiris, in the modern-day constellation Orion. His tomb was filled with items he might need to help him on his way. And in the case of at least one pharaoh, some of those items probably came from the heavens. The tomb of King Tutankhamen contained thousands of artifacts. Many of them were made of gold, including a dagger buried inside his coffin. But the boy king also had a second dagger, made of iron. When Tut was buried, more than 3300 years ago, Egypt hadn’t started to work with iron ore, so the dagger probably was made from an iron meteorite – a space rock that fell to Earth. The composition of the dagger’s metal is much like that of a metallic meteorite – a mixture of iron and nickel, with a pinch of cobalt. Another Tut artifact was an elaborate piece of jewelry known as a pectoral. Its centerpiece is a scarab beetle carved from yellow glass. The glass formed about 26 million years ago, when an asteroid or comet plunged toward Earth. It either hit the surface or exploded in the atmosphere. Heat from the explosion melted some of the desert sand, creating chunks of glass. One of those chunks eventually made its way to an Egyptian artist, and then to Tut’s tomb – a piece of glass from the heavens for a king traveling to the heavens. Tomorrow: into the void.

Planetary scientists have had a hard time classifying a world that orbits a faint star in Ophiuchus. Since the planet’s discovery in 2009, they’ve described it as a super-Earth, a mini-Neptune, and a super-Venus. In other words, it’s not like anything in our own solar system. The planet orbits the star GJ 1214. It’s in the serpent bearer, which is high above the Moon this evening. The star is less than 50 light-years away. But it’s less than one percent as bright as the Sun, so you need a good-sized telescope to see it. A few years ago, the International Astronomical Union assigned formal names to both the planet and the star. The names come from Kenya, from the Maa language. The star is Orkaria, from the name of a red pigment used by warriors in tribal ceremonies – the color of the star. The planet is Enaiposha – a word for lake or sea, or for their stormy nature. The planet is bigger and heavier than Earth. That led to its early classification as a super-Earth. But it’s not very dense, which makes it more like a miniature version of Neptune – the smallest of the Sun’s giant planets. Enaiposha has a thick atmosphere, which is hot because the planet is quite close to the star. Observations by Webb Space Telescope suggest the atmosphere contains a lot of carbon dioxide. That hot C-O-2 atmosphere makes the planet like Venus – one of several identities for this hard-to-classify world. Script by Damond Benningfield

Cygnus X-1 contains the first black hole ever confirmed. And it recently recorded another first. Astronomers measured the details of twin “jets” of particles that shoot into space from its poles. The jets are firing at almost half the speed of light. And they have the power of 10,000 Suns. The system consists of the black hole and a supergiant star. The black hole, which was discovered in 1964, is 20 times the mass of the Sun. The star is twice that mass. The star is extremely hot and bright. It blows a thick wind of hot gas into space. The black hole captures some of the gas, which forms a swirling, super-hot disk around it. Magnetic fields grab some of the gas before it falls into the black hole, and fire it back into space through the jets. Astronomers have seen jets from many black holes. But this is the first time they’ve precisely measured a jet’s power and speed. Those details are important because the jets can have a big influence on the surroundings. They can blow away gas and dust, preventing the birth of more stars. Or they can squeeze clouds of gas and dust, triggering the birth of stars. So the details help us understand the role of black holes in the evolution of entire galaxies. Cygnus is in the eastern sky at nightfall. Although Cygnus X-1 is too faint to see, it’s about half way between the swan’s bill and the intersection of its body and wings. Script by Damond Benningfield

Stars follow a life-long weight-loss program. They blow hot gas off their surfaces. Over time, the amount of material in these “winds” can add up. Heavier stars, in fact, can expel enough gas to make several stars as massive as the Sun. An example is Antares, the leading light of Scorpius. It’s in good view tonight, to the left of the Moon as night falls. Antares is a supergiant – one of the biggest and brightest stars in the galaxy. It’s more than a dozen times the Sun’s mass. And it’s so big that if you placed it at the center of the solar system, it would extend past the orbit of Mars. But when Antares was born, about 11 million years ago, it was even heavier. Studies in recent years have placed its initial mass at about 15 to 17 times the Sun’s mass. Most of the difference has been blown into space on the star’s winds. Antares has lost so much of its original weight because it was heavy to begin with. A massive star “burns” through its nuclear fuel quickly, making its core extremely hot. Radiation from the core causes the star’s outer layers to puff outward. That far from the core, the surface gravity is fairly low, so it’s easy for radiation to push gas out into space. Antares is fated to expel even more of its mass. At the end of its life, its core will collapse, causing its outer layers to explode as a supernova – blasting most of its remaining gas out into the galaxy. Script by Damond Benningfield

Most agents never learn how to take control of a listing appointment until they've already lost one to a lower fee or a bigger promise from another agent. That drive home replaying every word, wishing you'd handled it differently, is exactly what this episode is built to fix.This is a live listing appointment roleplay where I walk through the exact process I use to close listings at an 80% rate against the 20% national average. You'll watch the full conversation play out, including the moment the seller brings up commission, because that's usually where agents lose control of the room.Here's what's inside this one:✅ The real estate objection handling script I've used through 2,000 home sales and 17 years in this business✅ Why the assumptive close real estate agents skip is actually the difference between presenting and closing✅ How I isolate objections one at a time with a "set aside" instead of letting five stack up at once✅ The real math behind my close rate, 7 nos before I get to 1 yes, and why that ratio is normal, not a warning sign✅ Real estate closing techniques 2026 that hold up when a competitor undercuts you on feeIf you want to know how to close a listing appointment without freezing up when the objection comes, or you're looking for real estate roleplay training instead of another generic script, this episode gives you both the mechanism and the proof behind it. Knowing how to take control of a listing appointment isn't about personality, it's a skill, and this is the closest thing to sitting in the room with me while I run it live. This is the real estate listing presentation 2026 training built from doing the work, not talking about it.

In this episode of Over 50 & Flourishing, I'm joined by Joan Lunden for a conversation about the moments that shaped her extraordinary career and the lessons she's carried into this next chapter of life. We talk about breaking into a male-dominated television industry with no experience, why she's always believed in saying "yes" before feeling ready, and how learning on the job became one of the greatest keys to her success.Joan is an award-winning journalist, bestselling author, television host, and motivational speaker who has been a trusted voice in American homes for more than 50 years. As the longest-running female host of Good Morning America, she broke barriers in broadcast journalism and has continued to inspire millions through her resilience, reinvention, and advocacy for women's health.We also discuss what happened after she left Good Morning America, why purpose became more important than prestige, how her breast cancer diagnosis led her into advocacy, and why she's become such a strong believer in cultivating female friendships later in life. This conversation is full of practical wisdom about staying open to new opportunities, embracing reinvention, and continuing to find meaning and purpose long after the career chapter you thought would define you.For more on Joan, follow her on:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JoanLunden Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/therealjoanlunden Buy her memoir, Life Beyond the Script: https://www.amazon.com/JOAN-Beyond-Script-Joan-Lunden/dp/1637634927 Website: https://joanlunden.com/ Thanks to my Sponsors:Quince: Go to Quince.com/flourishing for free shipping on your order and 365-day returnsQualia Life Sciences: Go to qualialife.com/FLOURISHING for 50% off.
