A pair of silk stockings, mended again and again below the ankle, set Emily Whitted on the path of discovery that has led her through archives and museums of early American history. The stockings belonged to Philadelphia's Stephen Girard, who was one of the wealthiest men in America. Museum records didn't mention the mends, though the socks had been repaired several times, making them as invisible to historians examining records as anyone Girard met on the street. Textiles were valuable in the early 19th century, and even a wealthy man wore stockings mended by one of the women of his household. Mending, darning, and repair became the subject of Emily's doctoral thesis at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, a project she has nearly completed. Her research into mending has led her to investigate how repaired clothing could identify a person trying to self-emancipate, how well repaired clothing could indicate moral character, and how groups of men repaired not only their belongings but also sails in maritime life. Emily was drawn into the history of textiles by her interest in the role of cloth in women's lives. With a background in public history (presenting information about the past to non-specialists), she recently curated an exhibition at the Webb Deane Stevens Museum in Connecticut about the variety of samplers that early American girls stitched. Although we generally think of samplers as purely decorative showpieces, darning samplers demonstrated practical skill in mending, too. As a badge of creativity and conservation, mending has recently taken center stage, with visible mending as a badge of honor. Emily Whitted's historical research shows just how much we have in common not only with the girls who stitched samplers but also the invisible hands that repaired the cloth of early Americans.

CardioNerds (Drs. Apoorva Gangavelli, Jenna Skowronski, and Hannah Every) discuss the continuum of prevention and heart failure with Drs. Anu Lala and Martha Gulati. Grounded in a clinical case of a 55-year-old woman with uncontrolled hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and obesity who is on the trajectory toward heart failure, this episode unpacks a paradigm-shifting framework from a joint HFSA/ASPC Scientific Statement. The discussion explores how prevention should not be siloed from heart failure management but rather integrated across a patient’s lifespan—from primary prevention in at-risk individuals, to secondary prevention in those with established heart failure, to tertiary prevention in patients with advanced therapies such as LVADs and heart transplantation. The experts highlight the importance of aggressive risk factor management, biomarker-guided screening, the AHA’s Life’s Essential 8, and the need for multidisciplinary collaboration and systems-level change to shift heart failure care from reactive to proactive. Audio editing for this episode was performed by CardioNerds Intern, Dr. Julia Marques Fernandes.

Pearls Systemic inflammatory diseases are associated with an elevated CVD risk that has significant implications for early detection, risk Heart failure prevention is a continuum, not a checkpoint. Prevention applies at every stage—from at-risk (Stage A) through advanced/post-transplant care—and every clinical encounter is an opportunity to intervene. The AHA’s Life’s Essential 8 (diet, physical activity, nicotine exposure, sleep, BMI, blood lipids, blood glucose, blood pressure) forms the foundation at every stage. Hypertension carries the highest population-attributable risk for heart failure of any modifiable risk factor. In the Framingham Heart Study, 91% of patients with newly diagnosed HF had pre-existing hypertension. The SPRINT trial demonstrated a 38% reduction in HF incidence with intensive blood pressure targets (30 ng/L or NT-proBNP >125 ng/L) identify individuals at heightened risk for progression to symptomatic HF. The ACC/AHA/HFSA guidelines give a Class IIa recommendation for natriuretic peptide screening in at-risk patients. Urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) is an underutilized screening tool that provides additional insight into CKM risk. The heart failure label does not close the prevention window—it accentuates it. Secondary prevention through GDMT optimization (quadruple therapy in HFrEF) and continued risk factor management remains critical. Tertiary prevention extends to post-LVAD and post-transplant patients, where hypertension, diabetes, obesity, and CKD management remain essential to long-term outcomes. Show notes For a comprehensive review, please review the full HFSA/ASPC Joint Scientific Statement: Lala A, Beavers C, Blumer V, et al. The Continuum of Prevention and Heart Failure in Cardiovascular Medicine. J Card Fail. 2026;32:75-105. doi:10.1016/j.cardfail.2025.06.013 1. What is the “continuum of prevention” framework, and how does it differ from traditional approaches to heart failure prevention? Historically, prevention and heart failure management have been treated as separate disciplines—primary prevention handled by preventive cardiologists and treatment managed by heart failure specialists. This joint HFSA/ASPC Scientific Statement reframes prevention as a dynamic, continuous process that spans a patient’s entire lifespan, regardless of HF stage or ejection fraction. The framework maps onto the ACC/AHA HF staging system: Primary prevention targets Stage A (“at risk”) and Stage B (“pre-HF”) patients to reduce the burden of incident HF. Secondary prevention targets Stage C (symptomatic) and Stage D (advanced) patients to reduce the impact of established HF through GDMT optimization and ongoing risk factor management. Tertiary prevention encompasses risk factor management in patients with LVADs or heart transplants—populations where hypertension, diabetes, and obesity still drive outcomes. The Central Figure of the statement illustrates that Life’s Essential 8 (blood pressure and lipid control, diabetes management, exercise, sleep, smoking cessation, weight management, and diet/nutrition counseling) forms the foundation at every stage, with pharmacologic and device-based therapies layered on top as disease progresses (Figure) 2. How do traditional risk factors drive heart failure, and what should clinicians prioritize? Hypertension carries the greatest population-attributable risk for HF. In the Framingham Heart Study (N=5,143), HTN was associated with a 2- to 3-fold increased risk of HF, with a population-attributable risk of 39% in men and 59% in women. The SPRINT trial showed a 38% reduction in HF incidence and 25% reduction in the primary composite outcome with intensive BP targets (30 ng/L or NT-proBNP >125 ng/L) are associated with heightened risk for progression to symptomatic HF. In the ARIC study, incorporating NT-proBNP reclassified 20% of older adults without HF into Stage B. Factors that affect interpretation include age, sex, obesity (lower values), and CKD (higher values). High-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn): Concentrations above the 99th percentile are now included in the definition of Stage B HF. Troponin testing may complement natriuretic peptides, particularly when BNP/NT-proBNP values are ambiguous. Risk scores: The PCP-HF equation predicts 10-year HF risk using traditional risk factors plus QRS duration. The AHA PREVENT score incorporates HF risk calculation and includes markers of kidney function (albuminuria, eGFR), though it may underestimate risk in men and Black adults. The CKM syndrome staging framework (Stages 0–4) provides a holistic approach to assessing systemic cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic risk. 4. What are the key nontraditional risk factors and cross-cutting themes in heart failure prevention? Genetics: Pathogenic cardiomyopathy variants exist in ~1 in 200 individuals in the general population. The HFSA and ACMG recommend cascade testing to identify at-risk family members. Polygenic risk scores for dilated cardiomyopathy show a 3.8-fold risk for DCM in the top 10th percentile compared with the median. Sex-specific considerations: Women have 2.8 times the odds of developing HFpEF, while men have similarly increased odds of HFrEF. A complete obstetric/gynecologic history is essential—preeclampsia is associated with a 4-fold increased risk of HF. Peripartum cardiomyopathy requires intentional screening in high-risk populations. Cardiotoxic exposures: Clinicians should be aware of medications that cause direct myocardial toxicity (e.g., anthracyclines, trastuzumab, tyrosine kinase inhibitors). A team-based approach with pharmacists can help optimize medication selection and risk factor modification. Social determinants of health: Environmental exposures (air pollution, arsenic, lead, cadmium), food insecurity, financial instability, and limited healthcare access contribute to HF risk and progression. Equity-focused, risk-based prevention strategies are needed. Psychological health: Depression is common in HF and independently associated with worse outcomes. Screening with brief questionnaires (e.g., PHQ-2) is recommended. Meditation, spirituality, and holistic wellness approaches remain underutilized. 5. What systems-level and policy changes are needed to move the needle on heart failure prevention? Multidisciplinary HF prevention clinics that bring together preventive cardiologists, HF specialists, endocrinologists, nephrologists, dietitians, pharmacists, exercise physiologists, and genetic counselors are advocated by the statement. EHR-embedded risk stratification could proactively flag patients on a trajectory toward HF—analogous to sepsis alerts or fall risk flags—enabling earlier intervention, particularly for patients who may not reach a cardiologist. Cardiac rehabilitation remains underutilized, particularly in HFrEF (Class 2b recommendation) and HFpEF (not yet covered by Medicare). The HF-ACTION trial showed quality-of-life benefits, and the REHAB-HF trial showed particular benefit in older patients with HFpEF. Policy priorities include expanding insurance coverage for preventive screening and novel therapies (SGLT2i, GLP-1 RAs, nsMRAs), reducing clinical inertia through team-based care models with closer follow-up intervals, and ensuring equitable access to evidence-based therapies across diverse populations. Digital health and AI hold promise for personalized risk prediction, remote monitoring (e.g., wearable devices, implantable PA pressure monitors), and virtual cardiac rehabilitation to overcome access barriers.

Jim Hill and Dan Graney examine the Avengers: Doomsday poster everyone may have looked at wrong, including a nearly hidden Loki positioned at the center of the multiverse and a newly powered-up Thor. They also discuss Marvel Comics leaving New York for Burbank, Kevin Feige's apparent Spider-Man: Brand New Day spoiler, and the increasingly wild X-Men casting rumors ahead of San Diego Comic-Con. Plus, Dan challenges the online narrative surrounding Supergirl and explains why theatrical box office may no longer tell the whole story. HIGHLIGHTS • Marvel Comics prepares to leave New York City after nearly 90 years and relocate its publishing operation to Burbank. • Stephen Wacker takes over as Marvel editor-in-chief while C.B. Cebulski shifts his focus to manga and Asian publishing projects. • Loki may be hiding in plain sight at the exact center of the Avengers: Doomsday ensemble poster. • Thor's orange lightning could signal the arrival of the Odinforce and the MCU's most powerful version of the character yet. • Andy Park's final major Marvel Studios artwork carries an unexpectedly poignant Endgame connection. • Kevin Feige may have revealed Yelena Belova's surprise appearance in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. • X-Men casting rumors intensify ahead of Marvel Studios' Hall H presentation at San Diego Comic-Con. • Vision Quest gets an October release date, Élodie Yung returns as Elektra, and Nova reportedly evolves from a series into a feature film. • Supergirl, The Mandalorian and Grogu, and Masters of the Universe raise bigger questions about online negativity, streaming strategy, and how studios now measure success.

Geoff Fisher is the COO of GVT Tire & Auto and Auto Pros of Minnesota, an automotive service network with 18 locations. His perspective on auto repair shop growth comes from experience across the shop floor, service counter, process development, and multi-location operations.Fisher began working as a tire and lube technician at age 16 before earning an operations management degree from the University of Minnesota's Carlson School of Management. He later spent two years as a service writer and moved into leadership, where he now helps guide an expansion plan targeting 26 locations.In this episode…Growth exposes every loose process inside a shop. One location often survives inconsistent communication because the owner sees problems firsthand. Eighteen locations operate differently. Managers develop separate expectations, accountability becomes uneven, and recurring problems turn leadership into constant firefighting.Fisher uses the Entrepreneurial Operating System to create a shared operating language across locations. Weekly scorecards replace emotional decisions with measurable information. Car count, average repair order, and labor hours reveal where a process has broken down and give managers a clear place to begin correcting it.That operational discipline addresses only part of auto repair shop growth. Expansion also creates tension between consistency and local identity. Fisher's team wants every location to feel connected to its town rather than viewed as another chain. Community involvement, local partnerships, and visible service build relationships that a new sign cannot create by itself.The economics reinforce that approach. Fisher places the average cost of acquiring a new customer at about $130. A free oil change or community initiative costs less while creating a direct opportunity to demonstrate the shop's service. Opening one location every five weeks raises the stakes because each new team must carry the same processes without losing its connection to the community.Here's a glimpse of what you'll learn: [01:14] Fisher begins his automotive career at age sixteen[04:06] Shop-floor experience leads Fisher into operations management[06:22] EOS replaces emotional management with measurable performance data[10:55] Repeatable processes support expansion across multiple locations[13:12] The company averages one shop opening every five weeks[15:46] Community involvement strengthens retention and local trust[20:30] Clear measurements expose operational breakdowns[22:19] Coaching shapes Fisher's team leadership approachResources mentioned in this episode:Geoff Fisher on LinkedInGVT Tire & Auto WebsiteAuto Pros of Minnesota WebsiteTread PartnersGain Traction Podcast on YouTubeGain Traction Podcast WebsiteMike Edge on LinkedInQuotable Moments:“That people feel like your shop is a part of the town, not just located in it.”“We are currently averaging one shop every five weeks.”“I call it running for mayor, right?”“And I felt like sometimes we were playing too much firefighter and not really understanding what started the fire.”“Help me, help you, help us.”Action Steps:Turn auto repair shop growth into a weekly scorecard. Track car count and average repair order, then add one labor-efficiency measure that managers review at the same time each week.Select one recurring operational problem and document its root cause. Assign ownership of the correction, set a deadline, and review whether the same problem returns.Build a store-opening playbook from the processes already working. Document training responsibilities, workflow expectations, and the first-week operating routine before the next location opens.Give every location one concrete community commitment. Choose a school partnership, local business relationship, or service initiative that places the team in direct contact with residents.Calculate customer acquisition cost and compare it with the actual cost of a goodwill offer. Track whether recipients return for a second visit rather than measuring success by redemption alone.

Infrastructure readiness has become the real bottleneck for agentic AI in healthcare, as enterprises confront the shift from systems that generate content to systems that execute tasks across complex, regulated workflows. In this episode, Alex Tyrrell, SVP and CTO of Health at Wolters Kluwer, examines how agentic AI changes operational demands for healthcare organizations in conversation with host Matthew DeMello, highlighting the need for domain‑adapted reasoning, granular APIs, and stronger observability as agents drive higher‑volume system interaction. He underscores the practical implications for leaders: preparing backend systems for agent‑driven load, adapting models to real‑world workflows, and avoiding monolithic architectures that limit safe, scalable deployment.

This week on ShrinkChicks, Em and Jen dive into what it really means to fight fairly in relationships and how conflict can actually bring couples closer when it's handled well. They explore the difference between productive conflict and escalation, and why learning how you and your partner argue is just as important as learning how you love.The conversation breaks down common conflict mistakes like bringing up the past, using blame or contempt, and not taking a pause when feeling activated. Em and Jen also discuss how to regulate your nervous system in real time, when to take a break during a fight, and how to repair after disagreement, especially in front of kids or when emotions are high. Listener questions cover how to stay grounded when you feel unheard, how to introduce healthier conflict tools to a partner who isn't used to them, and what to do when insecurities get activated in the middle of an argument. The episode centers on one core question: in moments of conflict, do you want to be right, or do you want to be close?Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action!

Cyclospora is an uncommon but important cause of prolonged watery diarrhea in children, particularly during the summer months and during foodborne outbreaks. This episode reviews the epidemiology, clinical presentation, diagnostic pitfalls, treatment, and practical emergency department approach to recognizing and managing pediatric cyclosporiasis. Learning Objectives Recognize the clinical features and epidemiology of Cyclospora cayetanensis infection in children, including when to suspect the diagnosis in patients with prolonged watery diarrhea. Select appropriate diagnostic testing for cyclosporiasis and identify the limitations of routine stool cultures, ova and parasite examinations, and gastrointestinal pathogen panels. Apply evidence-based treatment and supportive care for pediatric cyclospora infection, including appropriate antimicrobial therapy, hydration, and follow-up considerations. References Stobbe M.

As always, I'm your host, Brad Sobolewski. It's July and a seven-year-old comes into your emergency department with 10 days of watery diarrhea. They were seen earlier in the week and told it was probably viral gastroenteritis. Maybe they got a prescription for ondansetron, maybe they didn't. Stool cultures have already come back negative. Mom tells you, “Every time I think he's finally getting better, the explosive diarrhea comes right back.” So what's going on? Today we're talking about Cyclospora. Honestly, it's one of those organisms that most of us forget about until summer rolls around, or since medical school. We don't diagnose it every week, and depending on where you practice, you may go years without seeing a case. But then an outbreak happens, and maybe just a handful of sporadic cases show up, and suddenly you're reminded that not every child with prolonged diarrhea has viral gastroenteritis. Cyclospora cayetanensis is a coccidian protozoan that's transmitted through contaminated food or water. In the United States, it's most commonly associated with imported fresh produce, things like cilantro, basil, lettuce, salad mixes, and berries. Unlike bacterial food poisoning, everyone at the picnic usually isn't sick, so it often presents as an isolated illness because the exposure happened days earlier and may have involved only one particular food item. Families are often trying to remember the one thing that they ate that made everybody sick. Honestly, sometimes it's simply the salad they bought at the grocery store a week ago. One thing that's helped me remember these organisms over the years is that they each sort of develop their own personality. You know, it's often confused with Giardia and Cryptosporidium. So if the diarrhea is greasy, think Giardia. If it's profuse, watery diarrhea after swimming, think Cryptosporidium. If it's prolonged, watery diarrhea during the summer, think Cyclospora. Now, obviously there are exceptions, but I think that's a pretty useful framework, especially when you're seeing patients one after another in a busy ED. One of my favorite pearls about Cyclospora, and I think it's probably the one fact that's most worth remembering because it explains how it sort of works. Unlike Giardia or Cryptosporidium, the oocysts that are passed in stool aren't immediately infectious. They actually have to spend days to weeks out in the environment before they mature enough to infect somebody else. So Cyclospora isn't really spread by the kids sitting next to them at daycare. It's spread by the salad they both ate last week. I think that's a lot easier to remember than trying to memorize the organism's life cycle. The incubation period averages about seven to 10 days, so by the time symptoms begin, families usually don't remember exactly what their kid ate. They're certainly not connecting today's diarrhea with the salad they had a week ago. The diarrhea itself is usually watery, sometimes pretty high volume, sometimes even explosive. One thing that's a little deceptive is that it tends to wax and wane. Parents will tell you, “Yesterday I thought we had finally turned the corner,” and today they're right back where they started. Along with the diarrhea, you'll often see abdominal cramping, bloating, nausea, fatigue, maybe even a low-grade fever, and if this has been going on for a while, some weight loss or poor weight gain. Most of these kids don't walk in looking critically ill. They walk in because they're still having diarrhea when everyone expected them to be over it. That's really the patient where Cyclospora should come to mind. And of course, not every child with prolonged diarrhea has it. Giardia is still incredibly common, especially after untreated water exposure, camping, or daycare. Again, those kids have greasy, foul-smelling stools with bloating and flatulence. Cryptosporidium is the swimming pool organism. Those oocysts are remarkably resistant to chlorine, so swimming pools, splash pads, and water parks should all get your attention. Those patients usually have profuse watery diarrhea, but in otherwise healthy children, it tends to run its course over a couple weeks. Cyclospora is different because it just hangs around. That's really what makes me think about it. It's not necessarily how sick the kid is, it's that they're still sick when they should actually be getting better. So aside from when you're in the middle of an outbreak, when should you actually suspect it? It's really when a few things start lining up. The diarrhea has lasted more than a week. Maybe it got a little better and then came back. The kid has lost some weight or looks a little dehydrated. It's summertime. The bacterial stool studies are negative. Maybe there's a history of travel. Maybe there isn't. Maybe there's a history of eating fresh produce. Maybe there isn't. At some point, you have to stop saying, “Eh, it's probably still viral,” and start asking yourself whether you're dealing with something else. One teaching point that's worth repeating, partly because it shows up on board exams and partly because it explains the epidemiology, is that Cyclospora isn't spread directly from person to person. Fresh stool isn't immediately infectious because those oocysts still have to sporulate in the environment before they can infect the next person. So let's say you're thinking about Cyclospora. What do you actually order? A routine stool culture isn't gonna help you. Even a routine ova and parasite examination may not be enough. That's an easy mistake to make because a lot of us were taught persistent diarrhea, send culture and O&P or a stool molecular pathogen panel. Many labs don't specifically look for Cyclospora unless you ask them to or order it specifically. So there's gastrointestinal PCRs for it, but you have to order them separately. So you can actually get back a negative O&P and feel reassured when in reality no one's really tested for Cyclospora. If your hospital has a multiplex GI PCR panel that includes it, that's probably what you should order first. If you don't, you probably have to order it separately. Another board pearl. So if you're taking a board exam and they describe a child with prolonged watery diarrhea during the summer, maybe after eating fresh produce, and then they casually mention that the routine ova and parasite examination was negative, don't let that throw you off. That's actually the clue. The organism may still be there, the lab just wasn't sent to look for it. If your lab is using microscopy, Cyclospora can be identified with a modified acid-fast stain. The oocysts are a little larger than Cryptosporidium, and one interesting feature is that they stain variably. Some stain bright red, while others hardly stain at all, giving them that classic ghost organism appearance, which I think is just, like, cool. And because oocyst shedding is intermittent, collecting two or three stool specimens over several days can improve the diagnostic yield if you still have a high index of suspicion. The good news is that once you make the diagnosis, treatment is actually pretty straightforward. Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole remains the treatment of choice. In adult-sized patients, that means trimethoprim one hundred and sixty milligrams plus sulfamethoxazole eight hundred milligrams, just one double-strength tablet, orally twice a day for seven to ten days. For kids greater than two months of age to eighteen years, it's eight to ten milligrams per kilogram trimethoprim and forty to fifty milligrams per kilogram sulfamethoxazole per day orally in two divided doses for seven to ten days. Most children begin feeling noticeably better within twenty-four to forty-eight hours. Honestly, this can be a pretty satisfying infection to treat because families have often been searching for an answer for a week or two. They've been told it's viral. They've been waiting for it to improve, and then you finally make the diagnosis within a day or two of starting the right antimicrobial, the kid's turning the corner. If the kid has a true sulfonamide allergy, things are a little more complicated, and I mean a true allergy, not just the parent who says, “Well, my mother was allergic to sulfa, so we've always avoided it.” There really isn't a perfect alternative. At this point, I'm probably talking to ID. Nitazoxanide's been used, ciprofloxacin's been used, but we generally try to avoid fluoroquinolones in children. Neither has been shown to work as well as trim-sulfa. And if you've got somebody who's immunocompromised with Cyclospora, which fortunately I've never seen, I'd be calling ID. Of course, don't forget everything else that goes along with taking care of prolonged diarrhea. Oral rehydration is still the goal whenever possible. Some kids are gonna need IV fluids because by the time they get to you, they've been losing fluid for days. Replace electrolytes if they've been really sick. And if the illness has dragged on for a couple of weeks, don't forget the nutritional burden. Sometimes they've lost enough weight that getting them eating and drinking normally again becomes part of an ongoing treatment plan. The good news is that most otherwise healthy children recover completely. Immunocompromised patients are the group that worries us the most. Their symptoms can become prolonged. They can relapse. Sometimes they require longer admissions or even secondary prophylaxis. One question that occasionally comes up is whether you need to repeat stool testing after treatment. In general, you don't. If the kid's symptoms have resolved, then you don't need to prove microbiologic cure. Treat the patient, not the PCR. If the kid feels better, you don't need to prove that the pathogen is gone. So let's get back to that hypothetical scenario we started with, that kid in July that's had watery diarrhea for 10 days. The stool culture was negative. They're starting to lose weight. The parents are frustrated. Everyone keeps telling them it's a virus. Maybe it is another virus. Maybe it's two illnesses in a row. But this is the patient where you have to take a step back and consider just one more test instead of offering more reassurance. That's what Cyclospora is. Of course, you shouldn't suspect it in every single child with prolonged diarrhea, but be aware of whether or not there's an outbreak and test for it. Before wrapping this episode up, here's a few more things I'd like you to remember. One, if watery diarrhea has lasted more than a week, especially during the summer months, make sure Cyclospora is somewhere on your differential. Second, remember my comparison. Greasy diarrhea, think Giardia. Swimming pool exposure and profuse watery diarrhea, think Cryptosporidium. Prolonged watery diarrhea during the summer, think Cyclospora. Third, don't let a negative routine ova and parasite examination or stool molecular pathogen panel falsely reassure you. Make sure your laboratory is actually testing for Cyclospora, and remember that not every GI PCR panel includes it. Finally, once you make the diagnosis, treatment is pretty straightforward. Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole for most patients. Kids will start feeling better in 24 to 48 hours. Cyclospora isn't the first diagnosis that comes to mind when a kid has diarrhea, and it shouldn't be. Viral gastro is still far more common. But when the diarrhea has been going on for 10 days, the stool studies are negative, the kid's starting to lose weight, and the family says, “I thought we were finally getting better,” that's when you have to stop and think about Cyclospora. It's the child with the diarrhea that lingered. If you enjoyed this episode, as the kids would say, like, rate, and review. Leaving that review on your favorite podcast platform really does help other people discover the show, and I've been fortunate to be teaching through this podcast since 2013 because of listeners like you. If you got ideas for future episodes or topics you'd like me to cover, I'd love to hear them. For PEM Currents: The Pediatric Emergency Medicine Podcast, this has been Brad Sobolewski.

Wells can't believe that a World Series MVP (Mookie Betts) spent an entire round of golf calling him "Wellsy," and that World Cup tourists are trying to smuggle ranch dressing home through LAX. And Brandi is still knee-deep in a renovation nightmare that keeps getting worse.As if her reno experience wasn't terrible enough, a dumpster truck ran over two tubs of paint in Brandi's driveway, and one missing sink faucet has turned into a seven-week (and counting) waiting game. Meanwhile Wells had the best 24 hours of his year involving a pool party turned into hotdogs, oysters and martinis, a hungover 8:30am beer at his Golf Channel show, and a round at Lakeside with Dodgers star Mookie Betts where he shot the best round of his life, which led him to drink more, because personal best, duh! They came into today's episode with nothing prepped ("literally zilch"), so they end up settling the aioli-vs-ranch debate and workshop who'd be Matt's real-life hall pass since, apparently, he "doesn't have one."FAVORITE THINGS:Silo (Apple TV+)Extinction (Netflix)Ransom Canyon Season 2 (Netflix)The Crowded Room (Apple TV+)Dungeon Crawler Carl (audiobook)Star CityLife, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness (HBO)We do this show for the few YFTers that are still out there.

This is a rebroadcast of one of our most loved episodes — whether you are listening for the first time or coming back for another listen, I know you are going to get something out of it. Enjoy! ❤️I have three babies I gave birth to and two girls who made me a mama in a different way — and all three times I gave birth I was planning to go unmedicated.It only happened once.And it was not because my body failed me. It was because I did not have the tools I needed and I did not know then what I know now. About nutrition. About mindset. About preparing my birth partner. About what actually helps once you are deep in labor and things get really hard.That is exactly why this episode exists. In this one I am walking you through everything — starting in pregnancy with nutrition, movement, posture, and mindset work, and moving all the way through labor with the tools, positions, support, and options that make the biggest difference when you are working toward an unmedicated birth. There is no judgment here about how you choose to give birth. But if unmedicated birth is your goal — I want you to have every single thing you need to get there. ❤️Here are some highlights from the episode:Why staying healthy and low risk gives you the most options for your birth — and where nutrition fits into all of itThe three exercises and daily movement that prepare your body for labor — and how to actually build the habitWhy your posture matters more than you think for your baby's positionMindset work, positive affirmations, and why this might matter even more for mamas who have given birth beforeLabor practice — what it is, why it works, and how to do it starting todayHow to prepare your birth partner so they actually know how to support you when it countsUnderstanding how birth physiologically works — and why that knowledge changes everything about how it feelsKnowing your options before you get to the induction conversationWhy staying home longer is one of the most powerful tools for an unmedicated birth Water as nature's epidural, freedom of movement, emptying your bladder, and eating and drinking in laborBeing adaptable — why you should never be suffering just to stay unmedicated, and how to make confident decisions if things shiftLinks Mentioned:
Drinking is a really acceptable thing in the US. Most towns have liquor stores on every few corners. Every home decor store has products with some variation of the same, tongue-in-cheek humor: “Mommy's Go-Go Juice,” “I'm not whining, I'm wine-ing,” or “It's WINE O'CLOCK!” More often than not, explaining that you're sober can be more awkward than explaining that you binge drink every other weekend. In fact, in the 2024 National Survey on Drug Use and Health, 79.2% of people aged 12 and up reported that they had consumed alcohol at some point in their lifetime. Drinking is, for most people, considered “normal.” And for Laura McKowen, drinking was just a part of life – of work, of her social life, of relaxing. She didn't realize how destructive it was until things had gone too far and her brother confronted her, saying, “This is your thing. You can't drink.” Laura is here today to walk us through her addiction, guilt, turmoil, recovery, and path onwards, sharing the nine things that anyone facing addiction needs to hear.

(In Iain Stirling's voice): The girls kick this week off with another round of Love Island chat, and they've got Sincere squarely in their crosshairs. They've officially had it up to ~here~ with his games and lies, and they're breaking down everything happening in the villa. There's a study on the girls and boys entering Casa Amor and how they have to behave so differently to be picked to stay in the Villa. Do the men on the show, and in real life, get way too much grace to do whatever they want under the excuse of “boys will be boys”? And why are the women being villainized this season for doing the exact same things Zach, Dylan, KC, and of course Sincere, have been doing? Things wrap up with discussions of what is going on behind the scenes in Fiji, like contestants that might never enter, and entire seasons filmed before the real deal just so producers can make sure everything runs smoothly. Jaci recaps her family reunion in Tennessee, including the bugs that apparently decided she was their new home, while Chelsey shares some photo drama that's threatening to tear a family apart.// WHAT WE ARE WEARING/MENTIONING // https://shopmy.us/shop/whatwesaidpodcast SHOP OUR MERCH: https://shop.dearmedia.com/collections/what-we-said !!!

This week on ShrinkChicks, Em and Jen unpack insecurities: where they come from, why everyone has them, and how they quietly shape our relationships, careers, and sense of self. They explore the connection between insecurity and hyper-independence, why asking for help can feel so uncomfortable, and how comparison culture can keep us stuck.They also answer listener questions about needing reassurance in relationships, feeling hurt when someone's energy changes, worrying people won't like the "real" you, and what to do when you realize past choices were driven by insecurity instead of authenticity. Along the way, they discuss attachment, vulnerability, self-compassion, and how healing begins by challenging the stories we've carried for years.The Still Face Experiment mentioned in today's episode: https://www.gottman.com/blog/research-still-face-experiment/Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action!

The 1920 Democratic Convention and the Ohio Connection Guest: David Pietrusza Meeting in San Francisco, the Democrats faced a grueling nomination process dictated by the "two-thirds rule," which required 44 ballots to select James M. Cox. The convention was overshadowed by a frail Woodrow Wilson, who still harbored secret hopes for a third term despite his inability to even put in a full day's work. The contest featured William Gibbs McAdoo, Wilson's"dry" son-in-law, and the "moderately wet" Cox. The atmosphere was further charged by the recent Palmer Raids and anarchist bombings. Al Smith emerged as the first viable Roman Catholic candidate, though his time would not come until years later. Ultimately, the party chose Franklin D. Roosevelt as the vice-presidential nominee. FDR was selected largely for his famous last name and to move him out of New York state politics, where he had been a troublesome figure for the Tammany Hall machine. (5)1920
