Randy Fine, serving as the U.S. representative for Florida's 6th congressional district, joins Sid for the second time this week to receive congratulations from Rosenberg after the Jewish firebrand Fine secured a landslide victory in his Florida GOP primary last night. The race was marked by antisemitic tropes, allusions to Adolf Hitler and sharp criticism of Islam from his opponent Dan Bilzerian.

EVERYTHING IS THE SAME ANYMORE, AND I COULDN'T BE MORE BORED OF IT! Emails all sound the same. Marketing all sounds and looks the same. Captions on social media, the scripts people are using in reels, even some long texts I have received - they all have the same flavor. They sound the same, they have the same language patterns, and they are removing the human supposedly behind them. In this episode, I am going to talk about this shift happening behind the scenes that is majorly bleeding through into every aspect of our daily lives and reshaping our human experience. And as we allow this "expression" to express for us, what are we losing?  More importantly, why did we choose to come here on Earth at all, and what does our self expression have to do with that? If we are looking to a machine to express for us and direct us in every minute area of our lives, what are we losing? I think this matters very much, and I don't think people are thinking about it or consciously noticing it is happening. Here's where we are going in this episode: - Sameness is spreading fast - What authenticity actually means from the soul level  - Why your unique creative signature is spiritual power - How to reconnect with your eternal, organic self (and why you MUST!) - What this all means in terms of who will be trusted and remembered in the years ahead Mindful Pregnancy Collection: https://www.karagoodwin.com/pregnancy-collection  Subscribe so you don't miss any of the powerful episodes of Soul Elevation: https://www.youtube.com/@soulelevationpodcast?sub_confirmation=1  Listen or Apple or Spotify: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/soul-elevation-guiding-your-ascension-to-new-heights/id1442136034  Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3Rld3E6a4hWwySD73aBkbe?si=89d00821258844b3 

This hour we take a look at the global movement to silence Christian counselors, pastors and believers from sharing the real love of Christ with people who struggle with their sexual identity.

Join us as we discuss the lies, myths and movements being used to silence the Gospel.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

0:00 – 25:23 - With Kevin and James out, Marc Dykton and Greg Rakestraw host. Greg is in Boston for the Colts’ preseason opener against the Patriots. Joint practice was eventful: Cam Bynum picked off Drake Maye, while the backup QB battle continued. Roster talk continues, including which first-teamers will likely get more reps than others throughout the month of August. 25:24 – 41:57 – ESPN Colts reporter Stephen Holder joins the show to clarify the confusion with Alec Pierce’s PRP injection situation and his progress towards a return to play. Is there any weight to the rumor that Keenan Allen will be a Colts wide receiver this season? He also highlights a glaring problem with the team’s receiving corps, what we’ve learned about the linebacker group, and more! 41:58 – 1:03:36 – Returning to Stephanie White’s impassioned pregame press conference prior to Tuesday’s Fever win over the Liberty. The Fever are playing great basketball, and White had to put a stop to all the extracurriculars.

Are you sure there is a single, "real" version of Achilles, Helen, or the Odyssey?In this episode, classicist and author Emily Hauser (creator of Mythica) joins Paul Bavill to dismantle one of the biggest misconceptions in classical literature: the search for a single, definitive "truth" behind ancient myth. From Homer's Iliad and Odyssey to modern cinematic interpretations, myth was never meant to be a static rulebook. It is a living, flexible oral tradition shaped by who is telling the story, why they are telling it, and which voices—especially those of women—are written into or out of the narrative.Together, Emily and Paul explore how figures like Penelope, Cassandra, Helen, Briseis, and Andromache offer richer, more complex insights into the ancient world than any rigid timeline ever could. They unpack the ancient concept of Xenia (guest-friendship), the tragedy of divine curses, and why asking "why was this myth told this way?" is far more powerful than chasing a "canon" that never existed.Key Takeaways & Discussion HighlightsThe Myth of the "Correct" Myth: Why searching for the "real" Achilles or Helen misses the core purpose of fluid, evolving oral storytelling.The Silencing of Women: How Telemachus's rebuke of Penelope in Book 1 of the Odyssey marks one of the earliest Western literary examples of silencing female speech—and how female writers resist it.The Real Meaning of Xenia: Why host-guest relationships act as the social glue of ancient Greece, and how both the suitors and Odysseus himself violate these sacred rules.Agency and Curses: The tragic dimensions of Cassandra's truth-telling curse, Helen's balance of agency and divine intervention, and how Briseis evolved from Homer to Shakespeare.Featured Guest: Dr. Emily HauserDr. Emily Hauser is a classicist, academic, and author of Mythica: A New History of Homer's World Through the Women Written Out of It.Book: Buy Emily's book Mythica at the official History Rage Bookshop:https://uk.bookshop.org/a/10120/9781804992791Gloucester History Festival: Emily is speaking live at the festival on Thursday, 17th September at 6:00 PM.

I've done a lot of work on myself over the years, but my inner critic still has a way of showing up when I least expect it. In this vlog, I'm talking about what happened when that voice came back, sent me into a shame spiral, and had me judging myself, questioning my self-worth, and slipping back into negative thoughts and negative self talk. It's amazing how quickly old patterns can make you forget everything you know about yourself.I'm sharing how I try to catch that self judgement before it takes over, reframe the thoughts that are making me feel small, and remind myself that one hard moment does not define my identity or my worth. If you're wondering how to silence your inner critic, stop judging yourself, get out of a shame spiral, or stop being so hard on yourself, I hope this feels like a reminder that healing isn't about never having negative thoughts again. It's about learning how to recognize them, reframe them, and come back to yourself.Timestamps: 00:00 – Inner Critic Resurfaces 03:13 – Driving Violation05:54 – Cop's Basic Advice 07:07 – Our Inner Critic 09:25 – Basic Self-Care Tools 12:15 – Lighting Palo Santo 15:06 – Daily Positive Affirmations 16:32 – Embracing Human ExperienceConnect with Me:Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@realamyedwards⁠⁠⁠Spotify: ⁠⁠⁠The Amy Edwards Show Podcast⁠⁠⁠#innercritic #selfjudgment #shame

You’re listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for August 6, 2026. President Trump signed two executive orders targeting birth tourism and birthright citizenship — one ending the practice of foreign nationals flying in just to give birth on American soil, and another restricting citizenship documents for children of alien enemies, foreign terrorists, and commercial surrogacy arrangements. We break down what's actually in these orders, why Stephen Miller is calling birth tourism "an industry built around deception," and why we think the Supreme Court's original birthright citizenship ruling all but guarantees these orders end up in court. In our Top 3 Things You Need to Know, we cover the Senate Homeland Security Committee's vote to hold Dr. Fauci in contempt of Congress after he pleaded the Fifth 111 times, newly uncovered documents showing 24 state attorneys general plotted lawsuits against the Trump administration a full year before he took office, and Mitch McConnell's release from a rehab facility after nearly two months out of the public eye. Nearly one-third of Democrats now openly identify as socialists, according to investigative journalist Peter Schweizer — and we dig into how the party establishment got hijacked by its far-left flank, with even Bernie Sanders declining to endorse a Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate whose platform includes canceling Thanksgiving. Our American Mama, Terri Netterville, tackles a listener question on digital dashboards versus physical buttons and knobs — with stories ranging from a Tesla-hating road trip to an unhackable 1987 Chevy truck and the rise of driverless cars. We're Digging Deep this week on the U.S. immigration court backlog, which sits at 3.5 million pending cases — down from Biden-era highs, but still requiring roughly 10,000 case resolutions a day to clear in a year. We explain why removal orders for no-shows have spiked and why ICE's work is only beginning once the courts catch up. Plus, questions swirl over Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei, who hasn't been seen or heard from since the war started, and Chuck Schumer's endorsement of a Michigan Senate candidate who's publicly called for Schumer's own ouster as Democratic leader. Our Bright Spot: Argentina's President Javier Milei proposes a "fiscal shackle" law that would freeze politicians' salaries and halt federal funding to the states the moment the government runs a deficit — an idea Louis and Stephen think might just be crazy enough to work in Washington. Plus, we close with the story of a Rhode Island bake stand that was stolen — and the stranger who rebuilt it for free.

Episode 5568: Silencing Journalists During 2021

Join us this month for a special Lesser-trod Paths episode with David the Ñoldo! Springing from our last Lesser-trod History episode about The War of the Jewels, David joins us to discuss the dwarves in Tolkien's legendarium. Looking through a lens of source criticism of secondary world authorship, David challenges us to consider who in the legendarium is writing about the dwarves, where these authors get their sources, and what potential biases are present. David asks us to consider whose history is written down and whose is silenced, and question why.    Citations:  Thank you to our guest, David the Ñoldo!  David's linktree: https://linktr.ee/davidthengoldo Voices of Arda Episode 65: David the Ñoldo, May 29, 2026, Season 1 episode 65 https://poddtoppen.se/podcast/1647183649/voices-of-arda-podcast/voices-of-arda-episode-65-david-the-noldo (Accessed July 9, 2026) David's Bibliography Agøy, Nils Ivar, “Viewpoints, Audiences and Lost Texts” in The Silmarillion Thirty Years On, ed. by Allan Turner, p.149-163.   Fimi, Dimitra.

How do the stories we tell ourselves impact our performance and cultures? What inner narratives are you perpetuating in your life, your leadership, and throughout your organizational culture? View the full access show notes at: https://jasonvbarger.com/podcast/inner-propaganda-owen-fitzpatrick/ Jason is joined by social psychologist, keynote speaker, and author Owen Fitzpatrick for an eye-opening conversation about the internal stories that shape our leadership, culture, and reality. Please rate and review the podcast to help amplify these messages to others! Summary: In a world flooded with external noise and information, how do the most effective leaders manage their own minds to drive organizational performance? In this episode of The Thermostat, Jason V Barger sits down with Owen Fitzpatrick, creator of Belief Leadership and author of Inner Propaganda. Drawing from his global experiences in over 100 countries and his profound personal journey, Owen challenges leaders to recognize that the most dangerous lies we face don't come from a screen—they come from the mirror. This conversation explores the hidden mechanics of human belief, shifting the focus from traditional task management to true "belief leadership." Jason and Owen explore how corporate culture is dictated by the stories teams tell themselves and deconstruct the concept of "naive realism." They also tackle the common vulnerability of cultural dissonance, challenging executives to move their core values off the office walls and actively embed them as "posters in their people." Essential listening for C-Suite executives, HR directors, and team leaders committed to shaping compelling cultures, this episode offers actionable insights on silencing the "inner dictator," leading with genuine service, and mastering the psychological narratives that dictate success in business and life. Episode Notes & Timestamps: Intro: Jason welcomes listeners and sets the stage for a conversation on authentic leadership, celebrating the podcast's recent top 70 ranking. Meet Owen Fitzpatrick: Introduction to Owen's background as a social psychologist, screenwriting enthusiast, and global traveler who has studied human belief in over 100 countries. Setting the Temperature: Owen discusses managing the culture "inside" (inner propaganda) versus the culture "outside" (belief leadership) when dealing with high-stress environments. The Origins of Inner Propaganda: Owen shares a deeply moving personal story of writing a suicide note, the single question that shifted his belief, and why the most dangerous lies come from the mirror. The Mechanics of Belief: An exploration of "naive realism" and why new ideas must first "feel right" and "fit in" emotionally and socially before they ever make logical sense. Belief Leadership vs. Thought Leadership: Differentiating between managing actions, sharing good ideas, and actively generating the emotional certainty required for true leadership in teams. Flipping the Leadership Pyramid: A critical look at why coercive, top-down power always leaves a trail of destruction, and why true leadership rests on service and belief. Posters in the People: Jason and Owen discuss why words like "integrity" are merely table stakes, and how to define behaviors so that corporate culture becomes a living habit rather than a static poster. Silencing the Inner Dictator: Strategies for combating the internal voice that presents anxiety as objective fact, and the importance of intentionally directing your focus during turbulent times. Key Takeaways for Leaders: Master Inner Propaganda: Recognize and challenge your "inner dictator" before it distorts your strategic decision-making and spreads anxiety across your team. Cultivate Belief Leadership: Stop relying purely on logic and data to drive change; ensure your initiatives connect with your team's emotions and identity to generate genuine buy-in. Operationalize Core Values: Move beyond generic mission statements by clearly defining what your values look like in daily action, putting the "posters in your people."

Do your ever feel the pull of self-silencing? In this thought-provoking episode, I sit down with counselling psychologist Dr. Simone Grey to explore why so many people edit themselves before they even speak. We unpack the connection between voice, the body, trauma, identity and the social structures that shape who feels safe to be heard. You'll discover: Why self-silencing happens long before words leave your mouth. The subtle signs you're holding yourself back (from apologising to the "swallowed sentence"). Why voice isn't just about the mind or the body - but the whole self. How history and social systems continue to influence whose voices are valued. Practical ways to begin speaking up through small, low-stakes acts of courage. Connect with Dr Simone Grey on socials @drsimonegrey

In today's Morning Manna, Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart examine Proverbs 25:23–24, where Solomon addresses two of the greatest threats to peace: the destructive power of gossip and the misery of continual strife. The study explores how righteous disapproval can silence a backbiting tongue, why believers must refuse to participate in slander, and what Scripture teaches about living in an atmosphere of constant contention. Drawing from both the King James Version and the Septuagint, Rick and Doc show that genuine peace requires both the courage to confront sin and the wisdom to recognize when conflict has become spiritually destructive.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 7-09-2026: Researchers refined a technique to reverse skin cell aging by about 30 years while preserving cellular identity. Exposing adult fibroblasts to Yamanaka factors—stopping before full reversion to pluripotent stem cells,reset the epigenetic clock and gene expression patterns to resemble much younger cells. The rejuvenated fibroblasts produced significantly more collagen, migrated faster to close artificial wounds, and showed reversal of gene expression patterns associated with Alzheimer's and cataracts. Since long-term epidemiologic data doesn't yet exist, Dr. Dawn follows up on last week's vaping question by exploring cancer mechanisms. Vaping aerosols impair DNA repair fidelity while triggering IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-alpha secretion. Nicotine-derived nitrosamines, reactive carbonyls (formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, acrolein) are generated when propylene glycol and vegetable glycerin are heated. Upregulated cytochrome P450 enzymes convert precarcinogens like benzopyrene into carcinogens. Mice exposed for 54 weeks developed lung adenocarcinomas in 22% and precancerous bladder hyperplasia in 57%, with markers matching those show predict lung cancer years before diagnosis. The Mexican Biobank—which includes over 40,000 samples from all 31 Mexican states revealed dramatic regional variation in drug-metabolism genes driven by Indigenous ancestry. In Chiapas, nearly 40% of the population carries two copies of a CYP2D6 variant reducing fentanyl metabolism, versus just 10% in Sinaloa. The SLCO1B1 variant hindering statin metabolism is found in over 15% of Yucatán residents., where 8 million Mexicans take statins. Dr. Dawn discusses both the promise and potential dark side of population genetic testing, including UK plans to genotype all children at birth for inborn errors of metabolism. Dr. Dawn briefly revisits the recent Indian study showing conch-shell blowing reduces sleep apnea by 34%, comparing it to earlier didgeridoo research, both of which strengthen airway muscles through forced-blowing exercises. A caller from Capitola recovering from non-Hodgkin's lymphoma near the L5 nerve asks about Japanese Kampo medicine formulas (Goshajinkigan, Yokukansan) for post-treatment nerve pain. Dr. Dawn suggests the pain likely originates from scar tissue tethering the nerve, and recommends consulting the Oriental Medicine Doctor program at Five Branches in Santa Cruz where faculty can advise on herbal formulas that trace back thousands of years through cultural exchange between China and Japan. Dr. Dawn explains Lp(a):lipoprotein(a), a small protein string attached to LDL particles that promotes clumping and clotting, is a genetically-determined coronary artery disease and stroke risk factor invisible to standard lipid panels. Levels of 250 particles double coronary risk and 350 particles triple it. Less than 75 is normal. Two new pharmaceutical strategies are in development to reduce Lp(a) : antisense oligonucleotides (single-stranded RNA that recruits RNase H to cleave target mRNA) and small interfering RNA (double-stranded RNA that triggers destruction of matching mRNA). Pelacarsen, a monthly injection in Phase 3 trials, reduces Lp(a) by 80%. These gene-silencing platforms open therapeutic possibilities for previously undruggable orphan diseases. Vitamin K2 is produced in the gut microbiome. MK-4 is most common in humans. Dr. Dawn recommends MK7 for stabilizing coronary calcium plaques and directing calcium into bone. A study of hepatitis B and C patients found MK4 to be protective in hepatocellular carcinoma. HCC developed in 2 of 21 MK-4-treated patients versus 9 of 19 controls, with a risk ratio of 0.2. MK-4 activates protein kinase A in vitro, inhibits HCC invasiveness, and restores apoptosis signaling that cancer cells normally block. Dr. Dawn recommends a couple milligrams of MK-4 daily for anyone with cirrhosis or prior hepatitis B or C infection.

In this episode of Conversations That Matter, host Jon Harris welcomes back Pastor Michael Clary to discuss his new book Loser Theology. Clary defines loser theology as a pietistic vibe that tells Christians they are supposed to lose in culture, politics, and society — and to feel spiritual about it. He critiques prominent leaders, exposes the double standard on political engagement, and explains how to pursue righteous power with biblical piety instead of passive defeat. A must-watch for anyone tired of the church staying on the sidelines.00:00 Introduction & Welcome to Pastor Michael Clary01:45 What Is Loser Theology?

What actually happens to your body when a cosmetic procedure goes wrong? Welcome to Part 2 of Before You Go Under the Knife, an explicit, investigative audio series hosted by 18-year plastic surgery insider Mavi Rodriguez. In this episode, Mavi breaks down the raw medical mechanics behind the industry's most requested and dangerous procedures.

A 135-year-old sisterhood built on bloodline and sacrifice is caving to woke bylaws — and members who speak up are being threatened with expulsion. This week on Kim on a Whim, Kim St. Onge digs into how the Daughters of the American Revolution voted down a ban on biological men joining, despite outraged descendants like one woman who says her frontier ancestors didn't survive the wilderness so their legacy could be handed to someone born male. Marc and Kim don't hold back, tying it straight to the Supreme Court's recent win against trans athletes in women's sports and asking the obvious question: why do men want in the Daughters instead of the already-existing Sons of the American Revolution? With members too scared of a gag-order bylaw to even speak on the record, this segment lays bare how far institutional wokeness will go to silence its own. It's satire, it's serious, and it's exactly the kind of common-sense pushback the Marc Cox Morning Show audience expects. An October vote looms — will the DAR course-correct, or fold completely? Coming up: news breaks on our own station group being sold.

Welcome Olympic Champion Masai Russell back to Hurdle! Fresh off her historic performances in the 100-meter hurdles, recently clocking a 12.14 for the second fastest time in history and a win at Pre Classic, Masai opens up about her rapid rise to the top and the evolution of her mindset. Emily and Masai dive deep into the essential difference between having confidence and being cocky, and how Masai protects her peace by switching her focus from standard expectations to execution. Masai reflects on transitioning from an underdog mentality to navigating the pressure of being the one to beat, sharing how she trains her mind to view every performance—good or bad—as an opportunity to sharpen her greatness. From tracking meticulous micro-improvements to redefining what "speed" truly means to her, Masai reveals what it takes to relentlessly pursue her potential and become an undeniable legend in her sport. IN THIS EPISODE The Reality of Expectations: Masai reflects on her transition from the "underdog" to the reigning Olympic Champion, sharing how she had to learn to navigate the immense weight of external expectations. Confidence vs. Cockiness: How to separate knowing what you bring to the table from being arrogant, rooted in humble beginnings, hard work, and a tight-knit connection to her community. Silencing the Outer Noise: Masai opens up about her mental strategy for keeping the blinders on, treating every major competition as "just another day with the same ten hurdles," and turning down the volume on her own mind. The No Bad Days Protocol: A look at how shifting her perspective allowed her to stop looking at setbacks as failures, choosing instead to view every statistical loss as a critical lesson that sets up future greatness. The Next Chapter: Masai chats about the microscopic physical adjustments that unlocked her 12.14 performance, why she welcomes the pressure of world-record predictions, and her ultimate vision to become an undeniable legend in the sport. QUOTABLE MOMENTS "When that gun goes off, like whatever everyone else says, like none of that matters... at the end of the day, Masai is the one that has to get on that line, execute it, do it, and really not talk about it, but really do it." "I have had very humble beginnings. I have not come from a winning background. I have had to work for everything that I've gotten, which is why I think that my audience... they're so tight-knit because of the confidence that I exude, but it's also in a way that I'm so sure about myself." "I feel like I will never lose ... statistically I may lose, but everything from a loss, I always take it as a lesson to just set me up for where I'm at." "Your thoughts are just your thoughts, and what you put flesh into or what you put life into, that's the reality that you'll get out of it. Quiet your brain down sometimes."

In this episode of Hurdle, host Emily Abbate sits down with two-time Olympian and 2018 Boston Marathon champion Des Linden for a conversation about redefining limits. Fresh off completing the legendary Marathon des Sables (MDS)—a grueling, self-supported 167-mile stage race across the Sahara Desert—Des takes listeners directly inside her tent. She shares the realities of surviving on grit, managing endless blisters, and navigating the longest run of her life: a staggering 62-mile day. Des breaks down the exact mindset it takes to avoid "negotiation mode" when the going gets tough and explains how her recent transition into the ultra-trail world has altered her relationship with the sport. Plus, she gives us a behind-the-scenes look at running the Boston Marathon as a "commoner" alongside her husband, Ryan, and her recent trip to the London Marathon. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS The Reality of MDS: Why Des swapped the roads of Michigan for the Sahara, how she managed self-supported gear, and what it’s really like to share a rudimentary tent with seven other runners. Silencing the Inner Negotiator: Des outlines her mental strategy for pushing through low moments and why reaching a state of self-pity only slows down forward momentum. The Blister Protocol: A look at managing the inevitable physical toll of a multi-day desert race and choosing to stay positive through the discomfort. Boston as a one of us: What it felt like to start further back in the corrals, weave through massive crowds, and burn extra matches to finish right before her husband, Ryan. The Next Chapter: Des chats about her strategic pivot to media and storytelling with her podcast Nobody Asked Us, her upcoming plans for the Chicago Marathon, and her sights set on the Havlina 100. QUOTABLE MOMENTS "The guardrails are off. Let's see where this goes." "This is literally what you signed up for... make the decisions to make the right choices because that's really what the event for me is all about." "As soon as we start to feel sorry for ourselves, it's like, you're just not going to be productive. So, take the little wins." "No one's going to fight for you as much as you... if you're not believing in yourself even more than everyone else, you've got to really think about what you're doing."

BUFFALO, NY – June 24, 2026 – A new research paper was published in Volume 17 of Oncotarget on June 9, 2026, titled “TRAIL-R2 in the shadows: Epigenetic silencing and clinical implications in breast cancer.” The study was led by first author Nuzhat Khursheed from the University of Kashmir and corresponding authors Asia Asiaf from the Central University of Kashmir and Showkat Ahmad Ganie from the University of Kashmir. Breast cancer remains one of the most common cancers affecting women worldwide. While advances in diagnosis and treatment have improved outcomes for many patients, researchers continue to investigate the molecular changes that enable tumor cells to survive, grow, and spread. One process receiving increasing attention is epigenetic regulation, in which genes are switched on or off without altering the underlying DNA sequence. In this study, researchers examined TRAIL-R2, also known as death receptor 5 (DR5), a protein that plays an important role in triggering apoptosis, the programmed cell death process that helps eliminate damaged or abnormal cells. Loss of apoptotic signaling is a hallmark of cancer, but the clinical significance and epigenetic regulation of TRAIL-R2 in breast cancer have remained incompletely understood. The investigators analyzed matched tumor and adjacent normal breast tissue samples from 67 patients. Using methylation-specific PCR, quantitative real-time PCR, and western blotting, they evaluated TRAIL-R2 promoter methylation as well as its gene and protein expression levels. The analysis revealed that TRAIL-R2 was frequently silenced in breast tumors. More than half of tumor samples showed promoter hypermethylation, a chemical modification that can suppress gene activity. At the same time, both TRAIL-R2 mRNA and protein expression levels were significantly lower in tumor tissues than in adjacent normal breast tissue. Further analysis demonstrated that TRAIL-R2 hypermethylation was more common in invasive ductal carcinoma, the most common subtype of breast cancer, and in patients with a history of oral contraceptive use. Reduced TRAIL-R2 expression was also associated with advanced tumor stage and several clinicopathological features linked to more aggressive disease. The researchers observed a strong inverse relationship between promoter methylation and TRAIL-R2 expression, suggesting that epigenetic silencing may contribute directly to loss of this important apoptotic receptor. Tumors with reduced TRAIL-R2 activity may become less susceptible to programmed cell death, potentially allowing cancer cells to survive and progress.

Ever wondered why a female health campaigner writes ‘seggs' instead of ‘sex', or uses an emoji instead of a medical term? Turns out social media platforms are systematically censoring medically accurate content on topics such as menstruation, fertility and menopause – often misclassifying such content as “adult” material and limiting its reach. It goes further, with femtech entrepreneurs also finding themselves routinely censored.  Enter the brilliant Clio Wood, co-founder of CensHERship, a research hub and campaign that has ending this sexist nonsense in its sights. Our Mick chats to Clio about exactly what's happening, why it's happening and how it's having a negative effect on everything from women's health outcomes to the global economy.  Members of our Patreon £5 and above gang get some extra chat, including what Clio makes of the Government's new Women's Health Strategy.  You can access that by visiting patreon.com/standardissue And if you're not already involved with our Substack, you can find that at standardissuepodcast.substack.com or sign up on our website, standardissuepodcast.com.  And you can buy Clio and her team a coffee here: https://ko-fi.com/censhership.

I'm always asking questions.  The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as…   When parents transition…should the surviving children bury their indifferences?  Plus…do shoppers at grocery stores feel guilty about hoisting $300 to $500 worth of product to a cash register?    I'm Arroe…  I am a daily writer.  A silent wolf.  I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate.  I call it The Daily Mess.  A chronological walk through an everyday world.  Yes, it's my morning writing.  As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to throw it to the side and deal with it later.  When a subject arrives, I dig in.  It's still keeping a journal!  By doing the research the picture becomes clearer.  This is the Daily Mess…Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

With Ben Jamal standing down from the Palestine Solidarity Campaign, now is a good time to discuss its future direction. Survey results and discussion involving Mick Napier, Tony Greenstein, Jackie Walker, Craig Murray, Ranjeet Brar, Jonathan Coulter, Sabby Sagall and Ruth Appleton. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GiDF9T6qGl4 The IHRA definition of antisemitism labels those who oppose genocide as Racists. The states perpetrating the genocide then criminalise workers for speaking out against Israeli, British and US wars and genocide. THAT is its REAL role: WE MUST CHALLENGE IT! In Britain and across the “western” NATO countries, thousands of doctors, lawyers, teachers, workers and citizens are under legal attack for defending Palestine. I was suspended after criticising Israel's actions in Gaza, and the US-Israeli and British war on Iran. Police arrested me at my home, leaving my children to look after each other. This is the third time I've been targeted by the police and I have faced multiple vexatious complaints and attacks at work - all coming from the state and the zionist lobby working hand in glove with our government. The management are complicit and collaborate in creating this politically repressive environment. In every case of police and workplace harassment, it is the “IHRA definition of antisemitism” that is being used as a benchmark to adjudicate what is “legitimate speech”. The definition was designed as a data gathering tool, and was never intended to become a law, or to be used in this way. Theresa May adopted it for the UK together with Nicola Sturgeon in 2016 without any consultation. The major political parties followed suit (including Plaid Cymru, SNP, Liberal, Labour and the Greens). It was pushed on police forces, schools and colleges, and Wes Streeting has been pushing it actively into the heart of the NHS. So now we have a situation in which existing laws (Public order act, professional regulatory frameworks, university regulations and constitutions) are being interpreted in its light, and the IHRA definition is therefore being “applied” as “law” - to silence legitimate speech on Palestine, and criticism of Israeli, US and British genocide.

Don't Just Stand There - Pt 9 - Silencing the Noise - Proverbs 17:27-28 - Practice: Silence - How do we silence the noise of people, ads, and screens that blare around us 24/7, distracting us from the voice of God? A great place to start is by silencing ourselves. Scripture contains many warnings to guard our mouths. The discipline of silence is a great way to re-set our habits, to remind ourselves to carefully consider our words before we speak.

Egyptian print media has historically functioned as a cultural barometer, shifting from the early official bulletins of the 20th century into a relentless and aggressive form of capitalism on steroids. Professor Bahia Shehab discusses her book, "A Trade in Dreams: A Century of Egyptian Print Advertising", unpacking how visual culture has been both a witness to and a victim of political upheaval. Her research illuminates a century where advertising functioned as legalized psychological operations, deeply embedded in the daily life of Cairo. By dissecting the visual language of the past, she provides a necessary framework for understanding the mono-culture and flattening of aesthetic diversity in the modern era.   00:00 Introduction 01:32 Invention of the Egyptian Press 04:00 The Business Model of Early Advertising 05:50 Motivations for Researching Advertising History 08:20 Discoveries in Beauty Standards and Race 09:55 Sequential Chronology and Political Tectonic Shifts 12:13 Napoleon, Egyptomania, and Early Visual Communication 17:14 1920s–1940s: Agriculture and the Tobacco Export Industry 20:00 Professionalization and Multinational Ad Agencies 22:31 Hybrid Aesthetics: International vs. Local Design 27:21 The Nasser Era: Socialism and Nationalized Media 30:57 The Sadat Era: Peace Treaties and the Open Door Policy 32:33 Influential Figures and the Silencing of Female Voices 37:01 Domination of the Soap Industry 48:58 The 1940s: The Golden Age of Egyptian Advertising 57:04 Egypt's Leading Role in Regional Advertising 59:08 Book Tour and Future Perspectives   Bahia Shehab is a multidisciplinary artist, designer, political activist and historian whose work focuses on the interaction and intersection of modern identity and ancient cultural heritage. Her imaginative combination of calligraphy and Islamic art history produced cutting edge, beautiful, impactful street art during the Arab Spring and continues to inform her work as an educator and designer. Having always been concerned with identity and preserving cultural heritage, she investigates art history to reinterpret contemporary Arab politics, feminist discourse and social issues. Her culturally oriented work enables her to use history as a means to better understand the present and find solutions for the future. She believes that art may be employed for the purposes of social change and has explored this phenomenon through her artwork, which focuses on socially charged themes such as the Arab identity and women's rights. Her research is largely concerned with understanding the Arabic letters and has been preoccupied with Arabic calligraphy in much of her work. Her work has been displayed in exhibitions around the world and she has received several awards and recognition for her achievements.   Connect with Bahia Shehab

In this episode, Dr. K explores the scientific reality of post-nut clarity and its often-ignored counterpart, pre-nut fog. He explains how the neurochemical shift from a dopamine-driven "search" to an opioid-mediated "bliss" fundamentally alters your ability to focus, assess risk, and silence the internal critic that often holds you back from your goals. What to expect in this episode: The Clarity Reality: Why post-nut clarity is a profound neurological state where the mind becomes super clear, less distracted, and significantly more motivated to focus on tasks. The Dopamine Fog: How "pre-nut" cravings create a "brain rot" that impairs your decision-making and risk assessment in areas of life completely unrelated to sexuality. The Opioid Flood: Understanding why an orgasm feels like a "floating bliss" and how this flood actually inhibits dopamine signaling, essentially cleaning your mental slate of distractions. Subliminal Triggers: A look at research showing it takes as little as 26 milliseconds of sexual stimuli—too fast for the conscious mind to register—to light up your brain's lust pathways. Silencing the Inner Critic: How the opioid surge effectively shuts down ruminative, self-referential thinking, allowing you to be present without worrying about past mistakes or future failures.
