Building skincare from regenerative medicine — that's the magic ✨ On The Kara Goldin Show, I sit down with Keith O'Briant, CEO of HYDRINITY Accelerated Skin Science — one of the fastest-growing professional skincare brands in the U.S. We talk about how HYDRINITY began not as a traditional beauty brand, but as a regenerative medicine company developing advanced wound care products and drug delivery systems for oncology and hematology patients. Keith shares how that medical and scientific foundation evolved into a professional skincare brand built around patented injectable-grade hyaluronic acid, proprietary delivery systems, and regenerative technologies designed to support skin health and deliver visible results. We also get into what “science-backed skincare” really means, why delivery systems matter as much as ingredients, and how consumers can better understand the difference between marketing claims and clinically backed innovation. Keith also shares what he learned from more than 30 years in life sciences, including leadership roles at Pfizer and Shire, and what it has taken to scale HYDRINITY into more than 4,000 professional practices in the U.S. and more than 40 countries globally since launching in 2022. If you're interested in learning how regenerative medicine is shaping the future of skincare, what it takes to build a science-first brand in a crowded beauty market, or why professional skincare is entering a whole new chapter — check out the interview on my podcast.

Sal and Mark come in hot this week with two must hear conversations. Jason Bassler from the Free Thought Project joins to talk about the growing resistance movement against Flock cameras, the abuse of this surveillance technology by law enforcement including federal agencies like ICE, ATF and the FBI, and what ordinary people can actually do to push back. Scott Horton then joins to share his perspective on US and Israeli foreign policy toward Iran, how Netanyahu played checkers with Trump, and where the current standoff is likely headed. Scott also touches on the Russia Ukraine war and the very real danger of nuclear miscalculation between the US and Russia. The guys also share their thoughts on a Stephen Miller speech on political violence and authoritarianism, and close out with practical tips on how to live a little freer starting today.

Sal and Mark are back with a big episode. Jeffrey Tucker, one of the most well known voices in the liberty movement and founder of the Brownstone Institute, joins to talk about Anthony Fauci's stunning testimony where he pleaded the fifth 111 times, the origins of pandemic planning going back to 2005, and Rand Paul's explosive claim that the 2020 lockdowns were designed to halt money velocity while six trillion dollars was printed. Paul Puey, CEO of Edge Wallet, then joins to walk through the Cold Card hardware wallet exploit, what actually happened with the random number generator, why self custody is still the right move, and how Edge Wallet protects users from these kinds of vulnerabilities. The Agorist segment covers Texas overnight criminalizing Delta Eight through an executive agency rather than a vote, the growing resistance movement against Flock cameras across the country, and whether taking them down is aggression or self defense.

This week we're taking a break from Annatar's story to explore how Galadriel and Celeborn came to call Lórien home! Join us as we trace the surprising history of one of Middle-earth's most beloved realms, from its many names and changing peoples to the famous golden mallorn trees that made it legendary. Along the way, we'll untangle Tolkien's ever-evolving geography, revisit the early journeys of the Elves, and discover how Khazad-dûm, Mirkwood, Fangorn, and even Númenor all played a part in Lórien's story. It's a map-heavy, lore-filled adventure that reveals just how much history can be hidden in a single Tolkien footnote!Want more Sisters of the Shire?https://linktr.ee/sistersoftheshirepodcasthttps://www.instagram.com/sistersoftheshirepodcast/https://www.patreon.com/sistersoftheshirepodcasthttps://open.spotify.com/show/1HIhmdeX6761vi7RyOjl8f?si=_qwdGdP7SbmAP2RWlji54w

Send us comments, suggestions and ideas here! In this week's episode we take the first step on the journey through The Hero of a Thousand Faces by Joseph Campbell and discuss, with nerd-like passion, the nuance surrounding each specific stage of the hero's journey as explained in the text. For a podcast that geeks out about symbolism; it doesn't get much more bread and butter than this. In the free side of the show we make it through the first four stages of the heroes journey: The Mundane World, The Call to Adventure, Refusal of the Call and Supernatural Aid; touching upon the variety (or lack thereof) you can expect in each stage while using mythology both modern and classic as guide posts along the way. In the extended show we discuss Crossing the Threshold, the tremendous ordeal of being swallowed within the Belly of the Whale and the laundry list of trials each hero faces on their path to either Mordor or tax season. Thank you and enjoy the show.DISCLAIMER:I think we need to clear up some confusion. First of all, I'm very tired. Secondly, I'm very tired. Thirdly, the book we're studying, Hero with a Thousand Faces is by Joseph Campbell but is BASED upon Carl Jung's ideas of the collective unconscious, the archetypes and the path to individuation by interaction with. When you're manically alternating between exhaustion and manic excitement it's easy to get the Cs and Js confused ok?? That being said, Jung is quoted numerous times throughout the text. At this point just assume we've mixed up the names a number of times during  this specific recording. My apologies. I'll sleep when I'm dead. In this week's show we discuss:-The World of the NPC: The Office, the Shire and Tatooine -The Call to Adventure: Neo, Barbie and Danny from the Shining-Refusal of the Call: King Minos, Cypher and Luke Skywalker-Supernatural Aid: Morphes, Beatrice of Dante's Inferno, Weird Barbie-Magickal Black-Man Tropes In the extended show available at www.patreon.com/TheWholeRabbit we go further down the heroes rabbit hole (gross) and discuss:-Crossing the Threshold: Walking Through the Mirror, Entering the Temple, Vagina Dentata-The Belly of the Whale: Being Pilled, The Trash Compactor, Jonah-The Road of Trials: John Wick, Hercules, Pan's Labrynth and Alice in Wonderland. This episode was written by Luke Madrid in collaboration with Tim Hacker who wrote the skeleton of the schizo's journey for each seventeen stages with commentaries.

There are many places in the Bible that talks about how we are called to service in the Lord. Most of us will never be called to the mountains of Asian countries or the deserts of North Africa or jungles  of South America or Central Africa. However, when Jesus was about to  ascend into heaven, He told each of us that we are called. Jesus told us that all of us that know Him have had the call to share  the Gospel throughout the world.

Don't leave the Shire without these!

The Lord of the Rings didn't just launch a genre — it set the standard every fantasy writer since has been measured against. This month, Fr. Wesley Walker and Dr. Junius Johnson begin their journey through J.R.R. Tolkien's masterpiece with The Fellowship of the Ring, the first volume of the trilogy that turned Middle-earth into the mythology of the modern imagination.In this episode, Wesley and Junius explore what actually sets Tolkien apart from the fantasy writers who came before, and the flood of imitators who came after. They dig into Tolkien's remarkable balancing act: a world built with more depth and history than perhaps any fictional world ever created, yet worn so lightly that you never have to read a page of the appendices to feel its weight. They trace the providence that runs quietly beneath the entire tale — the “hand that is not Gandalf's” guiding events from the moment Bilbo is chosen for the quest in The Hobbit — and ask what it means that Middle-earth's races are written almost as facets of human nature itself, essential yet never simple.The conversation also turns to Frodo: is he really the hero of the story, or is that title quietly earned by someone else? Wesley and Junius make the case that Frodo's heroism isn't the sword-and-glory kind; it's the daily, unglamorous courage of simply doing the next right thing, again and again, all the way to Mount Doom.Along the way: the structure of the six “books” hidden inside the trilogy, the guerrilla-war tension of hobbits slipping across a Shire already crawling with Nazgûl, and why the Council of Elrond marks the one time the Fellowship, as a whole, actually exists.Endnotes* Junius: The Children of Húrin by J.R.R.

Episode 12 of Sal and Mark. Mark is back from Costa Rica and jumping straight into one of the most important conversations in crypto. Denny (@patriotsounds) from RuneBond.com joins Sal and Mark to break down THORChain, the permissionless, fully decentralized cross chain swap protocol that no government can touch. They cover how it works, what bond providers and node operators actually do, why Monero is coming to ThorChain soon and why that is a game changer, and how anyone can start using it today without ever touching the Rune token. Jeff from RanchoDelicioso.com and Anamaya.com drops in to talk about two distinct but related projects in Costa Rica. RanchoDelicioso is a voluntary, rule free eco village where like minded people can buy lots and build their own homes, with around thirty residents already living there. Anamaya is his National Geographic award winning longevity and wellness retreat nearby, offering week long immersive stays with yoga, healthy food, and stunning ocean views. Jeff talks about what makes both work and why finding the right people is the key to everything. Sal also breaks down home based agorism and how turning your hobbies into crypto side hustles is one of the lowest risk and most effective ways to participate in the counter economy today. The show rounds out with the Firo Spark segment covering Spark names, Rosenbridge, the Firo Community Fund, and why Firo's price still has not caught up with the technology.

Mark Edge catches up with Kate Baker Demers, a longtime friend and one of the driving forces behind school choice in New Hampshire.
