The greatest threat to human health is us. Humans are the only species capable of self-annihilation. For at least the past 30 years it has been acknowledged that the earth is presently experiencing its sixth mass extinction entirely caused by anthropogenic GHG emissions. Per research published in 2023, current generic extinction rates are 35 times higher than expected background rates prevailing in the last million years under the absence of human impacts. Research published in Proceedings, the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) in 2022 concluded, “There is ample evidence that climate change could be catastrophic. We could enter such “endgames” at even modest levels of warming.” “Facing a future of accelerating climate change while blind to worst-case scenarios is naïve risk management at best and fatally foolish at worst.”Mr. Kellis's August article (and related podcast), “Why Should Extinction Medicine Be a Specialty?” appears in the recent AMA Journal of Ethics special issue on extinction medicine, at: https://journalofethics.ama-assn.org/issue/existential-health-care-ethicsThe recent SSRN pre-print on extinction medicine is at: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=5109482The recent IPPNW-AMA Journal of Ethics webinar on the ethics of human extinctions: To sign up for the Extinction Medicine Reading Group, a new IPPNW Medical Student Movement initiative that will promote international, intergenerational, and interdisciplinary discussion on writings on the science, ethics, and medicalization of human extinction, go to: https://forms.gle/pLspc5URhu9VcuS37Mr. Kellis can be reached via : www.devinkellis.com This is a public episode.

Michael Lard brings a refreshing perspective to the towing industry as he shares his journey from growing up in a towing family to owning Tom's 24-Hour Towing in Elkhart, Indiana. This third-generation tower has transformed his operation into a 16-truck fleet equipped with specialized machinery for handling complex recoveries.What truly stands out in our conversation is Michael's innovative approach to rigging techniques. Working collaboratively with industry experts, he's developed custom configurations using Omega links and container links that significantly improve safety margins while increasing efficiency. These creative solutions demonstrate how thoughtful engineering can transform standard recovery practices into something extraordinary.Michael challenges one of the industry's most entrenched mindsets: "dad and grandpa did it this way." While respecting tradition, he makes a compelling case that continuous learning is essential as vehicle technology rapidly evolves. With modern vehicles featuring composite materials, aluminum components, and sophisticated electronics, yesterday's methods alone aren't enough for today's challenges. As Michael wisely puts it, "Old skills are good skills. They just should not be your only skills."Perhaps most remarkable is Michael's commitment to community collaboration. Rather than viewing nearby companies solely as competitors, he regularly works with towers up to 50 miles away, sharing specialized equipment and expertise. This collaborative spirit extends to training events, where local companies contribute resources to support educational opportunities throughout the region. It's a powerful reminder that when towing professionals work together, everyone benefits.Looking for training opportunities? Join us for the Light and Medium Duty class hosted by Michael in Elkhart on September 6-7, or check out our full schedule of specialized classes happening nationwide. Whether you're focused on electric vehicles, heavy recovery, or rotator operations, we have the training you need to excel in today's demanding environment.

Florida citrus and specialty crops remain a central focus of growers, industry leaders, and policymakers, with challenges such as citrus greening, hurricanes, labor shortages, and fluctuating markets shaping the future. At the Citrus and Specialty Crop Expo in Tampa, Specialty Crop Grower editor-in-chief Frank Giles shared his perspective on where the industry stands and why there is cautious optimism moving forward.   Giles noted that citrus greening disease, or HLB, has plagued Florida growers for nearly 20 years, but recent USDA crop estimates show signs of stability. “There's some optimism that we may be turning in the right direction with this disease,” he said, pointing to ongoing research and grower investments through programs like the Citrus Research and Field Trials Program (CRAFT), which has already supported about 20,000 acres of new citrus.   Policy changes are also giving growers breathing room. The lowering of BRIX standards for orange juice has made more fruit eligible for processing, a “big breakthrough” that industry leaders have sought for years. Additionally, block grants for hurricane relief and over $100 million in state funding for citrus research are providing critical support.   Specialty crop growers beyond citrus have faced pressure from low prices and rising input costs, but Florida's crop diversity—from tomatoes and sweet corn to blueberries and watermelons—creates resilience. Giles emphasized that networking and shared innovation at the Expo help farmers across the Southeast and California learn from each other's challenges.   Labor and automation remain front and center in the discussion. Growers are looking to drones, mechanical harvesters, and new precision technologies to offset rising labor costs. “Part of this whole labor discussion is we need to be investing in automation,” Giles said, noting that mechanical blueberry harvesting is gaining traction while strawberries remain more difficult to automate.   The Specialty Crop Grower magazine continues to highlight these developments across Florida, Georgia, Alabama, and the Carolinas. According to Giles, its role is not only to share production insights but also to focus more on the business side of specialty crops—a vital area for growers navigating today's volatile markets.   For more coverage from the Citrus and Specialty Crop Expo and ongoing industry updates, visit AgNet West and Specialty Crop Grower.

Brimstone is joined by his wing-man Alex DaPonte, Meg Suss and Brim's wife Danielle as they chat about the unfortunate passing of Dee from the old series What's Happening, and then they discuss the 6 foot bear wearing a Brimstone Tee sitting in the corner of the studio – apparently, Vermont Teddy Bear sent over a ginormous bear that he'll be giving away on social media shortly. They discuss the new specialty coffee that Brim is doing with The Cup Coffeehouse, a new collab coming shortly with Java Doodles, and Alex's 2am blunders. They discuss 80th birthdays, Library of Congress deleting parts of the Constitution, and Brim ends with a fun joke. Brim explains what gets Within Brim's Skin.

How Canton Apples and Frosty Twig Fused Two Brands into One In New York's “North of Upstate” region, in the town of Canton is the Canton Apples production building. It is now also home of a partnership shaping the local cider scene. Owner Joel Howie and cider maker Dan Gallagher live just a mile apart, and their skills mesh perfectly. Joel brings over a decade of experience growing apples, pressing sweet cider, and creating value-added products. Dan, a passionate fermenter, was ready to move beyond hobby scale when the two connected. Two Brands, One Vision Under Canton Apples & Cider, LLC, two product lines take shape: Canton Apples – approachable, consistent ciders for everyday enjoyment. Joel Howie Frosty Twig – small-batch, specialty ciders showcasing unique apples, fruits, and wild fermentation. Dan Gallagher Production takes place in a purpose-built facility designed for growth, with future plans for a taproom overlooking the orchard. Orchard Practices & Apple Diversity Between their combined orchards, Joel and Dan care for over 250 apple varieties — many planted by Bill McKentley of St. Lawrence Nurseries. These heritage and cold-hardy apples thrive in Zone 4, and every apple grown is put to use. When supplies run short, apples are sourced from other New York regions. Cider Making Approach Ciders range from wild-fermented pet-nats to cultured yeast ferments for consistency. Specialty ciders include Turkey Tree Wild Berry Pear cider Most ciders age 9–10 months before release, allowing flavors to develop naturally.

Choosing the wrong medical sales role is one of the biggest reasons professionals burn out or walk away from the industry. In this episode, Samuel Adeyinka breaks down exactly how to avoid that mistake — and how to find the medical sales specialty that actually fits your personality, lifestyle, and long-term goals. Medical sales isn't one-size-fits-all. From trauma reps in the OR at 3 a.m. to pharmaceutical reps building slow-burning relationships, this episode unpacks the real differences between specialties — and how those differences directly impact your happiness and success. Samuel shares four powerful questions to ask before applying to any role, helping you get clear on your ideal lifestyle, how you like to build relationships, your appetite for clinical depth, and whether you're built for building new business or growing existing accounts. You'll also learn what hiring managers are really looking for, why desperation kills your chances, and how the wrong fit leads to fast burnout and industry ghosting. This episode is packed with real talk, strategic insight, and a roadmap to make smarter career decisions from the start. If you're serious about getting into medical sales, stop guessing.

Send us a textAre you stuck in the endless cycle of trying to find the perfect niche, create a stunning website, and develop a flawless business strategy before you feel ready to coach? It's time to break free from this trap.After guiding thousands of coaches through the early stages of their journey, we've discovered a powerful truth: the very things most coaches obsess over—niches, websites, business plans—are often the exact things holding them back from making the impact they're meant to make. This obsession with strategy isn't about confusion; it's about fear. Fear of being seen, fear of failing, fear of not being good enough.The transformational shift happens when you realize that you don't become a coach by building a website; you become a coach by coaching. When you focus on what we call the "Three S's of Starting"—Service (practicing coaching through free conversations), Showing Up (creating visibility), and Specialty (speaking to real pain points)—everything changes. Your confidence grows with each person you help, and suddenly, the path forward becomes clear.What's particularly fascinating is how your specialty or niche emerges organically from the work itself. As you coach more people, you'll notice patterns in who gravitates toward you and what problems you're especially adept at solving. This organic discovery is far more powerful and authentic than trying to force yourself into some predetermined box based on market research.Ready to stop overthinking and start coaching? Our mini action plan will get you moving: message three people offering coaching, go live offering free clarity sessions, and record a video sharing your core message. Because remember, clarity doesn't come before action—it comes from action. What's really holding you back? And what impact could you make if you started today?Subscribe now and join a community of coaches who are done with perfectionism and ready to make their unique impact on the world.Want a personalized strategy session for free?
