Send us a textIn this juicy new episode of Big Sexy Chat, Chrystal and Merf are back with updates, laughter, and deep dives into fat pleasure, power exchange, and the ways we signal our sexy truths to the world.

Send us a textJuly 4th brought horrific floods, fires, and loss throughout the United States. Flags in Texas and neighborhoods across the south have been flying at half mast honoring lives that were suddenly taken from us. Devastating events across the globe continue to challenge us to reconnect with our hearts and honor life above all things. Floods can symbolize overpowering emotions, or the repressed unconscious forcing itself to the surface for purification. While fires often symbolize impermanence, spiritual cleansing, destruction, and transformation. This episode explores how loss, chronicles a path of human amnesia for prioritizing love, safety, and life on our planet. Could these events be Mother Nature's Wake Up Calls?My intuition suggests they are warning signs. Signaling we are on the precipice of a huge awakening that will change the way we perceive our world and our role in it. It's time to question the way we're living, our priorities, responsibilities, and be accountable for what we've created.Music by Robin MillerIn The Company of AngelsSongs:  Oceans of Love  & Lullaby to Lois   www.robinmillermusic.comSponsor:Native Jewelry of SedonaLargest selection of authentic Native American jewelry in Arizonanativejewelrygallery.comFacebook: Native Jewelry of SedonaLocated in the second block of Uptown SedonaThe Copper Heart Art for Heart SenseArtist Catherine StefanavageWebsite:  iamcatherine.comEmail: iamcatherine16@gmail.comA huge Thank You to all our Sponsors!

Tom welcomes back Chris Vermeulen, the founder of The Technical Traders, to discuss the highly volatile year of 2025 so far. He notes that volatility has been extreme across various asset classes, driven by factors like geopolitical tensions, AI advancements, and fears of an impending recession. Vermeulen emphasized that while day traders thrive in such environments due to significant intraday swings, swing traders face increased risks with massive price gaps. Long-term investors should prioritize capital preservation by moving to cash until market clarity emerges, as he believes a bear market has already begun. He warned against the "buy the dip" mentality, especially for those nearing retirement, cautioning that this approach could lead to significant losses in a prolonged bear market. Vermeulen points out key indicators of an impending financial reset, including economic data showing hiring declines and rising unemployment, as well as housing market corrections with inventories soaring. Gold was discussed as a safe haven asset, though Vermeulen cautioned about potential pullbacks. He suggested that gold miners could offer better opportunities once the market stabilizes. Seasonality plays a role in his analysis, noting that stock markets typically struggle post-May, aligning with his bearish outlook. Real estate was also addressed, with Vermeulen predicting price drops of 15-20% and warning about the broader economic impact as housing values decline. He highlighted the psychological effect on investors when their largest asset depreciates, potentially leading to panic selling across markets. The U.S. dollar's potential strength was discussed, with Vermeulen suggesting it could rally in a risk-off environment.

In this episode, I sat down with Dr. Heather Sandison to talk about something that needs more attention Alzheimer's disease, and whether it can actually be reversed. She challenges the conventional belief that it's irreversible and dives into how environmental toxins, poor lifestyle habits, and hidden infections can drive cognitive decline. We broke it all down using the acronym "TNSSS-I" — Toxins, Nutrients, Stressors, Structure, Signaling, and Infections. Dr. Sandison shares powerful recommendations: an organic ketogenic diet, dual-task exercises, proper sleep, and detoxing from things like heavy metals, mold, and chemicals. We also touched on gut health, oral hygiene, blood sugar balance, and the role of APOE gene testing.

In an Oval Office meeting with the president of El Salvador, Donald Trump indicated that he won't bring a wrongly-deported man back from El Salvador, which would constitute a violation of a directive from the Supreme Court.As he was doubling-down on lawlessness and unconstitutionality, Trump also told the president of El Salvador that he "needs to build five more places" to hold American citizens, as Trump announced that "home-grown are next."Glenn takes on the question of what the federal judiciary may do in the coming days to address this attempt by Trump to destroy the constitutional construct of the American system of government.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week's show is sponsored by: EPIC-MRA Public Opinion Research MIRS News Fulton Fish Market This week on ""A Republic, If You Can Keep It" Republicans everywhere are reassessing after stumbling in a couple of Florida special elections that should have been slam dunks, and losing a State Supreme Court election in a Wisconsin landslide A day later by a stunningly trade war launched by the worst graduate in the history of the Wharton School of Economics. There was a Standing-Room-Only crowd as Democrats headlined a Town Hall in the heart of Macomb County, an event taking full aim at MIA Congressman John James. Last week, it was the most unqualified national security team ever assembled Signaling its stunningly consistent ineptness, with the revelation that at least one of them is conducting official business on Gmail. This week, it's RFK Jr. who, by advocating quack medicine while firing actual real scientists, accelerates a growing measles outbreak that's spreading from ground ZERO in Texas. Homeland Security ineptly condemns people to an indefinite stay in an El Salvador hell hole with no proof they've done anything wrong. And the U.S. Senate race has its first major candidate. We talk with state Senator Mallory McMorrow The first announced candidate for U.S. Senator is state Senator Mallory McMorrow. She exploded into the national spotlight in 2024 after an emotional response to very public personal attacks on her by Republican state Senator Lana Theis went viral. She is an ardent supporter of policies protecting reproductive rights, empowering local communities, and making Michigan a business- and family-friendly state. McMorrow is the Senate Majority Whip, serving her second term in the Michigan Senate. Prior to her election to the Senate she worked for more than a decade in product design, media and advertising with companies like Mazda, Mattel, Gawker Media, Hearst and other global brands. McMorrow hit the ground running during her first term in the Michigan Senate, winning policy changes such as ending Michigan's tampon tax, helping struggling businesses during the coronavirus pandemic, and protecting certain individuals (including domestic violence survivors) by creating an address confidentiality program. She earned her bachelor's degree in industrial design from the University of Notre Dame and resides in Royal Oak with her husband, Ray, their daughter, Noa, and their rescue dog, Detroit. At 38, she is the youngest person on the list of potential Senate candidates in either party.

Signaling that we're mindful, whether we're speaking, writing, posting, or messaging, is simple.There's no lying, denying, or blame. There's no harm done. We're remembering that what we say and do, matters. We're not gossiping, just sharing what's needed.And everything we say is kind.It's simple, but maybe not easy.  If it were, I feel like more of us would be mindful,whether we're talking to friends or planning a campaign. It's not easy, but it seems to me like a better standard of care, and a better Signal to the world, than the one we have now.

While everyone picks a side in the battle over the Signal text chat mess, Americans and conservatives are missing the bigger issue exposed. Trump has - once again - staffed his national security team with neocons.

We've all heard of virtue signaling -- when people make a big show – a sometimes cringe-inducing show – of their moral values, their progressivism, their empathy. The right-wing loves to mock it, and MAGA is taking things a step further...with vice signaling. Instead of working to show people how good they are, MAGA decides to show people just how awful they can be. Is this working? Tune in for Don's take! Learn more about your ad choices.

How old are you? A better question might be: how old do you feel? While your birthday says one thing, your biological age—the health of your cells—might tell a very different story. And here's the best part: unlike your chronological age, your biological age can go down. But how? For years, fasting has been celebrated as a key to longevity. Yet the challenge of skipping meals is enough to make most of us shy away. What if you could trick your body into reaping the rewards of fasting—without starving yourself?  This week, we're joined by Dr. Valter Longo, Director of the Longevity Institute at USC and one of TIME's 50 most influential people in healthcare. Valter's groundbreaking research on ageing and his FMD program have transformed how we think about health and longevity. Joining him is Tim Spector, ZOE's co-founder and one of the world's top 100 most-cited scientists.

We've all heard about Ozempic. But there are the GLP-1s we colloquially call “Ozempic” (see also: Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound) and then there's the cultural role of Ozempic. Given the price of these drugs, barriers to access, and class implications of weight stigma, this topic presents a unique opening to talk about inequality in health outcomes and the profitable business of individualizing social problems. In part one of this rare two-part series, we're covering:  The wage penalties associated with (and relationship between) weight and women, and the parallels between the American attitudes about thinness and wealth The Danish pharma company that put Europe's entire economy on its back A conversation with a 12-year veteran of drug and device advocacy who said some of the surrounding issues represent, and I quote, “everything wrong with health policy in our country,” especially given the shortages, costs, and online pharmacies springing up to bridge that gap with non-FDA-approved solutions Let's take a peek at the inside the business of weight loss drugs, and join us here next week for part two.
