Full Show Notes: BenGreenfieldLife.com/nicknorwitz In this episode with Dr. Nick Norwitz, you’ll get to discover how a Harvard-trained MD/PhD used a simple, eyebrow-raising experiment with Oreos to challenge conventional thinking on cholesterol, metabolism, and the stories told about health. We dive into his now-viral “Oreo experiment,” where adding Oreos to a ketogenic diet dropped his LDL cholesterol faster and more effectively than a high-intensity statin—an unexpected outcome that opens the door to deeper questions about lipid markers, risk factors, and how the body actually processes dietary fats. Nick Norwitz MD PhD is a researcher-educator whose mission is to “Make Metabolic Health Mainstream.” He graduated Valedictorian from Dartmouth College, majoring in Cell Biology and Biochemistry, before completing his PhD in Metabolism at the University of Oxford and his MD at Harvard Medical School. Nick has made a name for himself as a clinical research and metabolic health educator, speaking and writing on topics ranging from brain health, the microbiome, mental health, muscle physiology, mitochondrial function, cholesterol and lipids, and so on.

This week on The Data Minute, Peter sits down with Ben Orthlieb, Founding Partner at Blue Moon VC, for a look under the hood of a firm that has completely re-engineered the venture capital process using AI.Ben explains how Blue Moon uses a proprietary tech stack to source over 12,000 teams a year and screen them down to the top 5% based on their probability of graduating to Series B, achieving performance metrics that rival top-tier firms without the massive headcount. He breaks down why the "warm intro" is obsolete, how sending AI-generated dossiers to founders results in a 75% meeting acceptance rate, and why human judgment is still the final decision-maker.They also discuss the "hollowing middle" of the venture market, why multi-billion dollar funds struggle to innovate their own workflows, and how a small check strategy allows Blue Moon to cooperate, rather than compete, with the biggest names in the industry.Subscribe to Carta's weekly Data Minute newsletter: https://carta.com/subscribe/data-newsletter-sign-up/Explore interactive startup and VC data, with Carta's Data Desk: https://carta.com/data-desk/Chapters00:00 – Intro: The AI-first VC01:27 – Blue Moon's thesis: Coverage and Winning03:11 – How to source 12,000 teams a year without a network05:40 – "Machine learning instinct": Optimizing for Series B graduation07:44 – Backtesting the algorithm against top 50 Seed firms10:12 – The 75% meeting conversion rate (and why cold email works)12:30 – The "AI Dossier": Showing founders you did the work14:13 – Finding outliers outside the "Credibility Pool" (The Mercor story)16:05 – The investment process: Where AI ends and humans begin18:43 – Does it matter who else is on the cap table?23:36 – The "Small Check" advantage in winning allocation25:22 – How to interview for resilience30:20 – Why personal questions are a competitive advantage32:31 – Follow-ons, reserves, and systematic secondaries36:00 – Why haven't big funds copied this strategy yet?39:54 – The "hollowing middle" of the VC market44:40 – Why brand is the only defense against noise49:20 – Do warm intros actually result in better investments?52:46 – The future of the "Operator-VC" model56:00 – What LPs really think about an AI-driven fund59:07 – OutroThis presentation contains general information only and eShares, Inc. dba Carta, Inc.

Why does your body feel completely different after divorce or prolonged stress, even when doctors say “everything looks normal”?In this episode of The Crazy Ex-Wives Club, Erica is joined by Gigi Hunt, a hormone and nervous system mentor for high-achieving women, for an honest, science-backed conversation about hormone imbalance, nervous system regulation, and cortisol overload during divorce, dating after divorce, burnout, and chronic emotional stress.Together, they unpack why so many women are dismissed with “it's just hormones” or prematurely labeled as perimenopausal or hormonally imbalanced, when the real issue is often nervous system dysregulation driving sleep issues, anxiety, rage, digestive problems, and cycle changes.This episode explores how women's bodies respond to long-term stress differently than men's, why emotional volatility after divorce is not a personal failure, and how nervous system regulation, hormone support, and small, consistent practices can restore balance over time.If you've struggled with sleep issues, emotional overwhelm, digestive problems, cycle changes, or recurring relationship conflict after divorce, this episode offers clarity, validation, and a grounded path forward.You'll learn:Why women operate on a 28-day hormonal cycle, not a 24-hour oneHow divorce and chronic stress disrupt hormone balanceThe nervous system's role as the “conductor” of hormonesWhy cortisol hijacks progesterone and fuels anxiety, rage, and insomniaHow chronic stress and cortisol can mimic perimenopause symptoms at any ageWhy birth control disconnects women from their cyclical awarenessLuteal rage, recurring fights, and emotional pattern recognitionHow nervous system regulation supports hormone healthWhy micro-adjustments work better than major lifestyle overhaulsWe talk about:00:00 Intro01:00 Why women are blamed for emotional chaos03:00 Hormones, emotions, and cultural conditioning06:00 Birth control and loss of cycle awareness10:00 The four phases of the menstrual cycle15:00 Divorce, stress, and hormonal disruption18:00 Cortisol vs progesterone explained22:00 The nervous system as hormonal conductor26:00 Luteal rage and recurring relationship patterns30:00 Nervous system regulation and emotional safety36:00 Seed cycling and hormone support40:00 Perimenopause myths and misdiagnosis45:00 Rebuilding trust in your bodyHoliday Heart to Heart The holidays post-divorce are brutal because you are trying to "make it magical" when life feels anything but.

An Abrahamic Aventus traces Advent back to Abraham's long, aching wait beneath the stars, where God swore His promise in blood and taught His people to live obediently between promise and possession. This sermon shows Christmas as the arrival of the promised Seed—and calls the Church to wait, not in doubt, but in covenant confidence, as Christ's kingdom steadily claims what God pledged to Abraham.
Listen to My Message from Sunday, December 14 God's Redemption Design: More Than a Personal Savior Part Two of Designed for Destiny TRANSCRIPT: Greetings, and welcome to another Firm Foundation Inspiration Minute. As a matter of fact, this is talk #200! Praise God! We began this series in January of 2022. I thank God for His grace that empowers me to bring you these inspirational talks. I trust you've been blessed and encouraged by them. Our topic today is “The Last Adam Solved Our Problem.” Reading from 1 Corinthians 15:45, “And so it is written, the first man Adam became a living being. The last Adam became a life-giving Spirit.” The problem we had was the disobedience of Adam in the Garden of Eden. He and his wife did not follow God's instruction. When they disobeyed God, death entered the world. There was first a spiritual death, and then humanity succumbed to physical death. They were not designed to die physically, but sin always brings death—both spiritually and physically. However, this did not take God by surprise. In that same moment, God made a promise that the seed of the woman would crush the head of the serpent, which is a type of the devil. Jesus destroyed the works of the devil. While neither Adam, nor Eve, nor the serpent understood what God said at the time, we know in hindsight that this Seed was preserved all the way to the coming of Jesus through the Virgin Mary. Romans 5:15 reads: “For if by one man's offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One.” Jesus, the Last Adam, became a life-giving Spirit. This text explains that by one man's offense, Adam's, death reigned through that one sinful seed. The Scripture goes on to say that those of us who receive the abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ. Through Jesus, we live in the gift of righteousness, and we reign in life over sin, Satan, and defeat. Amen! So the Last Adam, Jesus, solved our problem. Rejoice in that! God bless. Have a great day, and be encouraged.
Abraham and Sarah waited 25 years for God to fulfill His promise of a child, finally welcoming Isaac when Abraham was 100 years old. This miraculous birth demonstrates that God keeps His promises in three ways: regardingly (with personal attention), reliably (according to His perfect timing), and remarkably (through supernatural power). God deliberately chose this elderly couple to show that His blessings come through divine intervention, not human ability. Just as Isaac's birth pointed forward to Jesus' miraculous virgin birth, God continues to work through ordinary people in extraordinary ways. When circumstances seem impossible, we can trust that God specializes in doing remarkable things at just the right time.

In this episode, Swamiji begins his discourse on Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7, Verse 10, Part 1, where Shree Krishna declares: “I am the eternal seed of all beings. I am the intellect of the intelligent, and the splendor of the glorious.” This verse reveals how God is the cause behind all creation and the source of brilliance in human beings. Swamiji explains that just as a seed contains the potential for a tree, God is the seed of all beings, the ultimate cause from which everything emanates. He emphasizes that intelligence and brilliance are not self-generated but bestowed by the Divine. Saints like Tulsidas admitted they were merely instruments, with God working through them to produce astonishing scriptures like the Ramcharitmanas. Similarly, the Bible affirms that holy men spoke as they were moved by the Spirit. Swamiji illustrates this truth with vivid examples: Bill Gates was empowered to create Windows, a common operating system, solving global interface problems—God chose him for that role. Swami Vivekananda explained that even the British Empire, despite its faults, served God's purpose of uniting the world under a common language. Tulsi Das revealed how Lord Ram Himself was the true doer behind his writings, showing that divine power manifests through chosen instruments. Even humorous anecdotes, like the Gujarati millionaire cleverly using a bank loan for cheap parking, highlight how intelligence manifests in surprising ways—all ultimately sourced from God. Swamiji concludes that whether brilliance or folly, all abilities originate from God. Recognizing this truth inspires humility, gratitude, and devotion, reminding seekers that they are instruments of the Divine. About Swami Mukundananda: Swami Mukundananda is a renowned spiritual leader, Vedic scholar, Bhakti saint, best-selling author, and an international authority on the subject of mind management. He is the founder of the unique yogic system called JKYog. Swamiji holds distinguished degrees in Engineering and Management from two of India's most prestigious institutions—IIT and IIM. Having taken the renounced order of life (sanyas), he is the senior disciple of Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj, and has been sharing Vedic wisdom across the globe for decades.
There are very few one-size-fits-all solutions in agriculture- most things depend on the weather, soil, pests, diseases and a host of other conditions for a particular farm. One of the most exciting trends in agriculture right now is the development of varieties that are suited to specific regional conditions. Common Wealth Seed Growers breeds open-pollinated vegetable varieties that are adapted to their region- in this case the southern USA.This week's guest Edmund Frost has managed seed production and research at Twin Oaks Seed Farm in Central Virginia since 2008. He also leads Common Wealth Seed Growers, a small, farm-based seed company with a commitment to regional production, adaptation and research based in Virginia. In this interview we discuss what traits they are breeding for in the Southeast, how they breed for resistance to the pests and diseases of the region, dehybridization, tropical pumpkins, new types of sweet corn that may have an advantage in the South, and more!

Seed catalog season is fun, but it can also be overwhelming. If you've ever ordered way more seed than you can possibly plant, chosen a variety that just did not perform in your climate, or gotten confused by all the codes, abbreviations, and marketing language this episode is for you.Today on Just Grow Something we're going to talk about how to read a seed catalog.We'll cover:1. Why seed catalogs are tools, not just wish books2. The key pieces of information in a catalog listing (and what they actually mean)3. Days to maturity, and why that number is not as simple as it looks... and moreBy the end, you'll be able to flip through a catalog and quickly decide, “Yes, this variety makes sense for my garden” or “Nope, that's just clever marketing” and make a wish list that can actually be fulfilled.Let's dig in.Resources:1.

I'm so happy to return to the roots of the podcast by talking REQUIEM FOR A SOLDIER with filmmaker Jeremy Musher, currently crowdfunding on Seed & Spark. It is the story of a "Vietnam veteran who in his last weeks of service, found a Vietnamese soldier's diary, and 56 years later returned it to the soldier's family." We talk war films, fatherhood and filmmaking, and his sweeping vision for a topic that doesn't get as much love as it should: Vietnam veterans. And this film has the added pleasure of showing the Vietnamese perspective.Let's get REQUIEM over the line. Happy holidays.In this episode, Jeremy and I discuss:the crowdfunding video and how he describes REQUIEM FOR A SOLDIER;what defines a good war film;why REQUIEM is a documentary rather than a narrative project;why they decided to crowdfund the film and use Seed & Spark specifically;the landscape for grants right now;the 60 day length of their campaign versus shorter options;the visual style he brings to documentary filmmaking and why they are weaving animation into the story;what he wishes existed for parents and fathers on film sets;the next few months for the film.Jeremy's Indie Film Highlights: THE ZONE OF INTEREST (2023) dir. by Jonathan Glazer; LITTLE DEATH (2024) dir. by Jack BegertMemorable Quotes:"The interview we did with him to shoot this kind of teaser was a seven hour interview, and Peter just has story after story.""It is the story of a Vietnam veteran who in his last weeks of service, found a Vietnamese soldier's diary, and 56 years later returned it to the soldier's family.""I feel like financing a film is harder than actually making the film."About one of the subjects of the documentary: "He struggled with a lot. He struggled with PTSD. He was an alcoholic, he was homeless, divorced arrested, and never lost the diary.""I've never done a crowdfunding campaign before and I've always pushed it off until I found a project that I really cared about.""[Animation] works so well for war...because I think that war is probably one of those things that you can't really understand unless you've lived through it and as somebody who hasn't lived through it, it's hard to ever fully understand it. I think love is honestly on that same spectrum.""It is a really hard industry...to have kids in, be a filmmaker and to have kids in our industry. You get locked in to staying local. And I think there's a reason, Terrence Malick took 20 years off of being a filmmaker so he could watch his, so he could actually raise his children."Links:Donate To REQUIEM FOR A SOLDIERFollow REQUIEM On InstagramFollow Jeremy On InstagramSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/first-time-go/exclusive-content
This week on the EUVC Podcast, Andreas Munk Holm sits down with Matthew Wilson, co-founder of Jack & Jill, and Peter Specht, General Partner at Creandum. Fresh off a $20M seed to take their AI recruiting agents global, they dig into how conviction is built in Europe, from founding insight to investor belief, and what it now takes to scale an agent-native company with speed, precision, and craft.Jack helps candidates find and optimize their careers. Jill helps companies hire brilliantly. Together, the two agents form a high-signal, two-sided network that aims to become the world's most networked AI-powered recruitment agency — without the classical incentive conflicts of human middlemen.Here's what's covered:02:35 | Why Creandum leaned in, conviction on voice-based interfaces and why recruiting is a massive, broken vertical for agent AI03:38 | The founding moment: leaving Omnipresent, 18 months in the wilderness, and the February insight that agents make talent marketplaces finally viable07:07 | Recruiting is broken (and AI made it worse): why first-principles thinking is needed to avoid “more noise, not more signal.”09:15 | Investor conviction: founder/market fit, why this moment is different, and the defensibility of a two-sided agentic marketplace12:22 | The user experience: the “coffee chat” with an AI recruiter: deep voice conversation → matching, prep, coaching, introductions16:30 | Solving the incentives trap: why Jack works 100% for candidates and Jill works 100% for companies (fixing agency conflicts)19:10 | Coaching as core: how AI unlocks career guidance, interview prep, and hands-on support that humans rarely get today22:47 | Building fast in the AI era: talent density, global expansion, and why a 20M seed makes sense for a dual-product marketplace26:35 | Two companies in one: scaling Jack (consumer) + Jill (B2B) simultaneously, across markets, with AI leverage34:02 | The GTM playbook: engineering-led marketing, AI-driven creative testing, instant value, and rethinking B2B buying entirely37:47 | The new AI go-to-market: speed, PLG dominance, virality-by-design, and why distribution now matters more than ever43:52 | Two GTM worlds: viral AI products vs. slow, enterprise-heavy AI deployments (and why both will coexist)47:15 | The “productization” of marketing — why engineering now powers growth, not headcount-heavy marketing orgs50:29 | Final advice (VC POV) — start with a unique insight, not a trend; think in 5–10 year arcs, not quick ARR bumps

The crew give their leads for the day and Wiggy cannot stress enough how important the two seed is for the Pats. Which means, no more slip ups.
The Rams got their revenge yesterday against the Lions by putting up 41 points at home. It started a bit shaky, but there was a legitimate turning point in the beginning of the 2nd half where the Rams figured out what the Lions were throwing at them. The Rams offense, however, never took their foot off the gas. Over the last two weeks, their offense has produced over 1,000 yards and 11 total touchdowns (which is absurd production in totality). This was the kind of game that showcased why the Rams are favorites to win the Super Bowl. What happens this Thursday is still a question mark... Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode of Words of Grace, Pastor Benjamin Winslett takes us to Genesis 1–3 to consider the earliest proclamation of the gospel and God's promise of redemption. From the goodness of creation, to the fall of our first parents, Scripture reveals Christ as the Seed of the Woman who would crush the serpent's head. … Continue reading "Crushing the Head of the Serpent"
What does yesterday's loss mean for the Patriots going forward? // Wha' Happened?: Week 15 // The Best of Jones & Keefe 2025: Hunter Henry Surprise Questions //
Scripture: Philippians 2:3-11 Who, for us and for our salvation came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the virgin Mary, and was made man; and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate; he suffered and was buried; and the third day he rose again, according to the Scriptures; and ascended into heaven, and sits on the right hand of the Father… John 17:5 John 17:24 "...the supreme mystery with which the gospel confronts us...lies not in the Good Friday message of atonement, nor in the Easter Sunday message of resurrection, but in the Christmas message of Incarnation. The really staggering Christian claim is that Jesus of Nazareth was God made man - that the second person of the Godhead...took humanity without loss of deity, so that Jesus of Nazareth was as truly and fully divine as he was human. Here are two mysteries for the price of one - the plurality of persons within the unity of God, and the union of Godhead and manhood in the person of Jesus." – JI Packer, Knowing God. + The Triumph of the Son's Obedience Luke 2:51 "What Christ saw in Gethsemane was God with the sword raised. The sight was unbearable. In a few short hours, he would stand before that God answering for the sin of the world: indeed, identified with the sin of the world... Consequently, to quote Luther again, 'No one ever feared death so much as this man.' He feared it because for him it was no sleep, but the wages of sin: death with the sting; death unmodified and unmitigated; death as involving all that sin deserved. He, alone, would face it without a 'covering', providing by his very dying the only covering for the world, but doing so as a holocaust, totally exposed to God's abhorrence of sin. And he would face death without God, deprived of the one solace and the one resource which had always been there. The wonder of the love of Christ for his people is not that for their sake he faced death without fear, but that for their sake he faced it, terrified. Terrified by what he knew, and terrified by what he did not know, he took damnation lovingly." – Donald Macleod, The Person of Christ. + The Triumph of the Son's Cross Colossians 2:13–15 Hebrews 2:14–15 "When Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews, was nailed to the cross, Satan thought that he had won the day. The old serpent had stung him to death, vainly imagining that all was over with him. I think I see the arch-fiend gloating over the awful agonies of the dying Savior, and maliciously taunting him as he hung there apparently forsaken by God and man. "Ah!" says he, "Seed of the woman, I have indeed bruised thy heel. I have made men reject thee and put thee to death; I have vexed and tormented thee, I have scorned and scouted thee, and thou hast not a word to say for thyself, and now thy soul must soon depart out of thy body." Yet as the devil was still pouring out his vainglorious boasts and taunts, with a mighty voice the expiring Savior cried, "It is finished;" and in that moment his soul sprang upon the enemy and utterly routed him forever." – Charles Spurgeon, Christ Triumphant. + The Triumph of the Son's Exaltation Ephesians 1:20–23 Isaiah 45:22–25 + You must decide about Jesus; You cannot be neutral about him + You must imitate Jesus. You cannot confess him but refuse to conform to him 2 Corinthians 8:9
