In this episode of Booked & Unfiltered, Michelle Glogovac and Stephanie Hockersmith tackle a hot-button topic in the literary world: Are audiobooks real reading? (Spoiler alert: Yes, they are.) They break down the outdated stigma around audiobooks and make the case for why listening counts—especially in a fast-paced world where accessibility matters. From the power of a great narrator to the freedom of reading on the go, Michelle and Steph explore how audiobooks expand the reading experience for everyone. This honest, funny, and thoughtful conversation is a must-listen for book lovers, skeptics, and audiobook converts alike. What We're Talking About... Audiobooks are a legitimate form of reading. Listening to a book engages the brain just like reading. Accessibility in reading is crucial for all individuals. Audiobooks can enhance the reading experience for busy lifestyles. Narrators play a significant role in bringing stories to life. The stigma against audiobooks is harmful and outdated. Different people absorb stories in different ways. Audiobooks can be a tool for learning and engagement. There are many platforms available for accessing audiobooks. Audiobooks can support local libraries and independent bookstores. Chapters 00:00 The Audiobook Debate Begins 02:54 Understanding Reading: Audiobooks vs. Traditional Reading 05:58 The Impact of Audiobooks on Learning and Engagement 09:04 Accessibility and the Evolution of Audiobooks 11:46 The Role of Narrators in Audiobooks 15:05 Audiobooks as a Tool for All Readers 17:52 Exploring Audiobook Platforms and Accessibility 20:52 Final Thoughts on Audiobooks and Reading

Spoiler: it's not a job title, a single grand calling, or something you're behind on. Purpose is about becoming more of who you already are, and that starts with self-acceptance. I'll share why I was once skeptical about the whole “find your purpose” idea, and how, through 20+ years of coaching and intuitive work, I've come to see purpose as the everyday joy of living aligned with your truth. Whether it's walking your dog, creating art, or starting that business you've been dreaming about—your purpose is found in what lights you up and connects you back to yourself. If you've ever felt unsure about your direction, or worried you're missing your “big calling,” this episode is a chance to reset that narrative. Listen in and start discovering your purpose—on your terms.

Real Life This week, Steven finally found a superhero movie that didn't make him want to throw his popcorn at the screen. Superman (2025) has arrived, and according to him, it's the best take we've had on the character in years. No origin story nonsense, just straight into Supes doing good and being good. James Gunn gets it—Superman is an immigrant, a boy scout, and a damn firefighter (not a cop). The moral core is there, the cape looks good, and apparently, if you hate it, it's because it's “woke”? Whatever. Steven liked it. You probably will too. Meanwhile, Devon has been dodging storms, not floods. He lives far from the Texas chaos but has had his fair share of wet weekends. That hasn't stopped him from grinding away at backyard renovations. Fake grass is coming soon. In the process, he's tearing out ivy and ground brush—bad news for copperhead snakes, which are venomous, and good news for anyone walking around barefoot. Speaking of venom: Ben brings us the delightful fact that some birds are venomous. No, really. There are birds that store toxins from insects and plants and use them to defend themselves. The pitohui says hi. Nature is weird. More bird venom facts here. Devon also dove into evolution this week, thanks to a Hank Green video about the great leap from water to land. Turns out the hardest problem evolution ever solved might just be how to turn gilled swimmers into four-limbed land mammals. Spoiler alert: it involves lungs, fins, and a lot of time. Watch the video here. Ben, when not thinking about venomous birds, asked an important question: What do people do for fun in Palmdale? The answer, apparently, is “hang out near electrical poles.” He also recommends the board game The Red Dragon Inn for those nights when you're too tired to fight dragons and just want to drink with them instead. Game info here. Future or Now Only Steven showed up for this segment, and he brought ancient lion maulings. A new article from ScienceDaily describes a skeleton found in a Roman cemetery in York—with bite marks matching a lion's jaw. It's our first archaeological evidence of gladiator-style combat between a human and a lion, which is equal parts horrifying and fascinating. Steven points out that if curses were real, this would be prime material—digging up gladiator graves seems like an express ticket to ghost lion attacks. Book Club This week, we read The Last Question by Isaac Asimov, a story about entropy, immortality, the heat death of the universe, and one computer's ongoing existential crisis. Devon raises a solid point: the story's final punch line hits different if you grew up with the Judeo-Christian idea of divine creation. If not? It still works, but maybe not quite the same way. You could easily sub in other creation myths—or just throw in some Terminators and call it a sci-fi remix. Ben had Siri read him the story aloud via Mobile Safari and recommends the experience. Read it here or watch this animated version. Next week: There Will Come Soft Rains by Ray Bradbury, a classic tale of loneliness, technology, and automatic breakfast machines still flipping eggs long after humanity is gone. You can read the story here or listen to a reading. Oh, and if you missed it, Captain Kirk is coming back—sort of. He's being resurrected for Star Trek: The Last Starship, a new comic set in the far future. We have thoughts. Mostly confused ones.
What up, Beasts. Welcome back to the show! This week on the Unveiling the Beast podcast, I sat down with Katie Sorensen, a nurse practitioner and owner of Weight Loss NP, to dig into one of the most misunderstood topics on the internet right now: GLP-1 medications. You know, the ones people love to hate, like Ozempic and ZepBound. As someone who's been waist-deep in the research for months (because yes, that's what us nerdy, weight-neutral coaches do), I wanted to bring nuance and facts into a conversation that's gotten way too loud and way too shallow. Katie broke down what these meds actually are, how they work with your body (not against it), and why calling them “the easy way out” is just lazy and harmful. Spoiler: they've been around for decades, are made of naturally occurring peptides, and they're doing a hell of a lot more than shrinking waistlines.We also talked about the emotional weight behind physical weight, the ridiculous judgment people face for using science to support their health, and how these meds are turning down the obsessive food noise that steals so much brain space. Katie and I are both on the same page: it's not about glorifying weight loss. It's about freeing people to focus on what actually matters in life. We covered everything from muscle preservation to mental health to why strength training is the real anti-aging hack. And if you've ever looked at someone using a weekly injection and thought, “Must be nice,” this episode will shift your perspective. As always, we ended with some wisdom, and Katie's was simple and powerful: get outside, soak in the sunshine, and walk. Because sometimes, the best medicine is free and found in the fresh air.As always, I hope something lands with you today. I hope something you hear tugs at your heart strings and/or I hope you laugh.Bio: Katie Sorensen, NP-C, is a passionate Nurse Practitioner dedicated to transforming lives through her innovative and holistically focused practice, Weight Loss NP, LLC.

Nuevo episodio de RUNNEA Talks, el podcast que te acompaña mientras corres, entrenas o recuperas en casa. En esta ocasión, Gorka Cabañas y Lionel Nattes charlan con Yaiza Quevedo, Health & Nutrition Manager en Angulas Aguinaga, para descubrir un tema que (aunque no te lo creas) tiene mucho que ver con tus zancadas: el poder nutricional de los productos del mar en la alimentación del runner. Y sí, te va a sorprender. Pulpo, mejillones y boquerones: el ranking más sabroso y saludable para corredores A menudo hablamos de hidratos, geles y barritas. Pero en este episodio abrimos el foco para hablar del mar. Literalmente. ¿Sabías que el pulpo es una fuente excelente de proteínas con apenas grasa? ¿Que los mejillones aportan hierro, zinc y vitamina B12 como pocos alimentos? ¿Y que los boquerones no solo contienen omega-3, sino también calcio y fósforo ideales para la salud ósea? Y en este episodio nos acompaña Yaiza Quevedo, Health & Nutrition Manager en Angulas Aguinaga, con la que construimos un ranking con los productos del mar más beneficiosos para el corredor popular. Alimento real, sin conservantes, pensado para tu rendimiento Durante el episodio, Yaiza nos recuerda la importancia de consumir productos del mar de calidad, naturales y sin aditivos. “Lo importante es que lo que comas trabaje para ti. Que aporte energía, pero también micronutrientes. Y que no arrastre conservantes innecesarios”, explica. También desmiente mitos (como el falso miedo al mercurio en ciertos pescados), recomienda formatos de consumo más prácticos y destaca qué productos del mar encajan mejor antes o después de entrenar. Spoiler: el mejillón es mucho más que una tapa de chiringuito. Un podcast que alimenta cuerpo y mente RUNNEA Talks vuelve con una conversación que cambia la mirada sobre lo que comemos. Un episodio para quienes buscan mejorar su rendimiento desde la base: la alimentación. Y también para quienes disfrutan corriendo... pero más aún comiendo bien.

Recorded: June 25th 2025 | Taylor Lewan and Will Compton are back with another episode of Bussin’ With The Boys. This week, we welcome one of college football’s most dominant tight ends of all time, and now member of the Las Vegas Raiders, Brock Bowers to the bus. In the intro Will and Taylor react to UFC Nashville. Jack McPherson, JP Hovey, and Garrett Hargis break down Derrick Lewis’s mooning of the crowd and getting to hang out with Luke Combs at Bridgestone Arena. Taylor Lewan defends himself for being in Canada on July 4th and Will Compton complains about his lack of sleep due to playing PubG with the boys in the back of the bus. Will then closes the intro by reflecting on his time playing at Nebraska with Ndamukong Suh, since Suh retired from the NFL this week. Then, Brock dives into his time playing college football at the University of Georgia, winning national championships, playing for Kirby Smart, and what it was like being Stetson Bennett’s favorite target every Saturday in the SEC. We get into his mindset on training, blocking vs. receiving, and how he approached every game like it was his last. The conversation gets real as Brock opens up about dealing with injuries, and his NFL combine experience, the pressure of being a top NFL prospect, and his goals now that he’s officially in the league on Geno Smith’s squad under head coach Pete Carroll. We even touch on NIL, life off the field, and what it means to stay humble while being a certified DAWG. You already know there are plenty of laughs, locker room talk, and elite football stories. Brock is as real as it gets. Spoiler alert, he’d do ANYTHING for just a steak dinner.. that’s it.. just a steak. And as always, the biggest of hugs and the tiniest little bitty kisses.

I'm joined by a very special guest—my daughter Kailyn—as we recap a whirlwind Disney weekend full of sun, snacks, and some serious theme park hustle.Kailyn hadn't stepped foot in the 4 Walt Disney World parks since Thanksgiving of 2023—and before that, Christmas 2022. But rewind a bit further, and she was basically raised at Disney. As a longtime Annual Passholder, she spent years visiting once or twice a month with us, until both kids eventually hit that wall a lot of families know all too well: Disney burnout. So they let their passes go, took a step back… and just like that, a new chapter began.But this past weekend, we opened the book again. On Thursday, it was off to Typhoon Lagoon for a splash-filled day of water slides, waves, and lazy rivers. Then we cleaned up and headed to Disney Springs for shopping and dinner at Wailulu Bar & Grill. (Spoiler: we'll be talking about poke bowls, fish, and tattoos.)And then came Friday—a 16-hour park day that took us to EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, and Magic Kingdom and packed in 20 attractions. We're talking thrill rides, strategy, food fuel, and some genuine moments of rediscovering the magic.You'll hear Kailyn's honest take on what it was like coming back after nearly two years away, how the parks felt different, and what moments reminded her why she used to love it in the first place.This is a special one for us—a dad-daughter Disney trip with laughs, nostalgia, and a whole lot of fun.MEI-Travel – Expertise.

Today we're covering Eligible by Curtis Sittenfeld! Aside from reading Austen, this is our first ever straight-up book review! Spoiler alert for Eligible. This adaptation of Pride and Prejudice is set in 2013 Cincinnati. The eldest Bennet sisters are approaching 40 and Mr. and Mrs. Bennet are country club parents who don't care that they're deep in debt. Jane and Liz end up back in Cincinnati when Mr. Bennet has a heart attack.Topics discussed include our honest criticisms of the book, the success of the class commentary, the splitting of Wick/Ham, Darcy and Liz as fuck buddies, the Catherine de Bourgh-ification of Caroline Bingley, kissing your cousin, the charade of love and performance of courtship on reality TV, ace Mary, mortgages, and gender roles in the regency era vs. early 2010s.Funniest quote: Surely, if Liz had learned that anybody in her social circle in New York had eloped with somebody transgender, she'd have greeted the news with support. She might even have felt that self-congratulatory pride that heterosexual white people are known to experience due to proximate diversity.Questions: Do you agree with our criticisms? Have you read the other books in the Austen Project? How seriously did you take the book? Who wins the book?

Ever thought, “Eh, being organized isn't that big of a deal”? Spoiler: It's probably costing you thousands. Or more! In this episode, I'm cutting straight to it with a bold (and maybe uncomfortable) truth: your disorganization is flat out costing you money, and more than you think. I'm sharing a story of a sweet colleague who said, “Tracy, I don't care about finding files in seconds. I care about making money.” She is so right. I needed this reminder. But here's the kicker: the only way you make more money is by NOT wasting time hunting for stuff, fixing mistakes, and letting opportunities slip because your backend's a hot mess. You make more money by prioritizing money-producing actions, executing an organized calendar, following the most efficient systems easily, finding things you need in seconds, and knowing you can confidently run (and scale!) your organized business. We're diving into the five hidden ways disorganization is bleeding your business dry, from wasted hours to missed sales. I'm also sharing what to do instead, so you can finally scale, sign more clients, and (yes!) actually enjoy that freedom you started your business for. If you're tired of your business being duct-taped together, this one's for you. What you'll learn: Why wasting time searching for files is literally throwing money away (I do the math for you!) How being reactive instead of proactive means your competitors get your clients (Yikes) The reason messy systems make you look (and feel) less trustworthy, and cost sales Why you'll hit a ceiling fast without streamlined systems The sneaky ways disorganization is draining your profits on tools, contractors, and mistakes The simplest first steps to get organized for real revenue growth

You know that sinking feeling when your client comes back having done literally nothing you coached them on? They said they wanted transformation, even paid for it, but somehow, between your session and their life, everything falls apart. The brutal truth: 90% of coaches are only speaking to 10% of their client's brain, while the unconscious mind quietly sabotages every strategy you give them. In this episode, I'm revealing the four critical mistakes that kill your coaching results and the ONE thing that changes everything. Spoiler alert: Stop coaching the goal and start coaching the resistance. Plus: I'm sharing details about my exclusive workshop "Why Your Coaching Isn't Selling" on July 29th, and how new Best Damn Coach members get 60 days of Voxer support to practice these techniques with real-time guidance. Ready to stop watching clients stay stuck? This episode will transform how you approach every coaching session.

Welcome to Episode 238 which features an Author Spotlight with the wonderfully creepy Clare Beams! To clarify: it's her work that's creepy, in a good way. As you'll hear in the interview, Clare is lovely, smart, feminist, and fun. We both enjoyed her latest book, THE GARDEN, which is part historical fiction, part ghost story, and part pregnancy horror story all wrapped up in a novel about a woman who finds herself in a place she never imagined with results that . . . well, you'll have to read it yourself to find out. We also talk about what we're currently reading. Chris is enjoying a re-read of SUMMER ON THE LAKES, IN 1843 by Margaret Fuller and Emily is relishing BUCKEYE by Patrick Ryan (pubs on 9/2) Those of you who've been reading along with us in the PENGUIN BOOK OF GHOST STORIES: From Elizabeth Gaskell to Ambrose Bierce will be happy to hear we did our homework. We discuss two stories from the collection: “Thrawn Janet” by Robert Louis Stevenson and “The Open Door” by Margaret Oliphant. In #BiblioAdventures, Emily recaps recent writing workshops she has attended, one with Shuly Cawood and the other with Betsy Lerner. Chris watched the 1997 mini-series adaptation of Stephen King's 1979 novel, THE SHINING, which she compares to the 1980 movie adaptation. Spoiler alert: the novel is best. As always, there's more bookish goodness in the episode than we mention here. We hope you enjoy it and wish you lots of Happy Reading! https://www.bookcougars.com/blog-1/2025/episode238
Episode LinksFree Download: Top 25 Toxins to AvoidGet on the Toxin Free in 3 Waiting ListShop Shower FiltersShop Non-Toxic HaircareEpisode DescriptionMost people try one "clean" shampoo that doesn't work and immediately assume all non-toxic hair products are inferior. But the real culprit isn't the product, it's your water!In the first episode of a three-part "Toxin Free Fails" series , I'm revealing why your expensive clean shampoo might be leaving your hair feeling greasy, buildup-heavy, or just plain dirty. Spoiler alert: it has nothing to do with the quality of the product and everything to do with the mineral content flowing out of your shower head.You'll discover the simple chemistry behind why hard water (over 180 ppm of calcium and magnesium) literally holds plant-based cleansers hostage, making it impossible to rinse them out properly. I break down the difference between ultra-clean brands like Rahua that work best in soft water versus slightly more synthetic options like Evolve and JS Health that contain specific surfactants designed to work in any water condition.This episode will save you from wasting money on products that aren't right for your specific situation and give you actionable solutions. From $13 water tests to shower head filters to understanding which ingredients actually make clean products work better in hard water.In today's episode, we're chatting about:• How to test your water and understand the 60-180+ ppm scale • The chemistry behind haircare fails • Two shampoo case studies • Water softening solutions for any budget
The Best Lovers by Country (Spoiler Alert: The U.S. didn't the top 10)
Is everyone really low in vitamin D? Or have we been sold a narrative that doesn't hold up under scrutiny? In this mind-blowing episode, Tara sits down with Regina and Kristin, the investigative duo behind the Normal Curves podcast, to explore the truth behind the so-called "vitamin D deficiency epidemic." Spoiler: it may have been manufactured by outdated, flawed science—and driven by people with major conflicts of interest. This is a must-listen for anyone taking vitamin D or worried about their levels. If you've been told your D is “low,” this episode might change everything. In this episode we cover: How the original vitamin D reference ranges were set (and how they were quietly reversed in 2024) Why testing vitamin D routinely may be doing more harm than good The role of conflicts of interest in shaping clinical guidelines What the latest randomized controlled trials (RCTs) actually show about supplementing vitamin D for disease prevention Why observational data can mislead us, and how low D might be the consequence—not the cause—of illness How much sun you actually need to make enough vitamin D (hint: it's a lot less than you think) Why the “low D” narrative stuck around even after the science was overturned If you're thinking about taking D, already taking D, or have been told your vitamin D is "low" (it likely isn't) then this one is for you.

„Not all men – but always men.“ Diesen Satz hört man in letzter Zeit wieder häufiger. Das Problem ist nicht neu, aber aktuell erneut stark diskutiert: Gewalt geht in den allermeisten Fällen von Männern aus – und noch immer fehlen uns strukturelle Wege, das zu ändern. Gleichzeitig widmen sich inzwischen mehr Bücher, Filme und Serien – wie etwa der Netflix-Erfolg Adolescence – der Frage: Wie geht es Jungs und Männern eigentlich? Spoiler: nicht gut. Diese Auseinandersetzung fällt zusammen mit einem alarmierenden Trend: Immer mehr junge Männer neigen zu rechten bis extrem rechten Einstellungen. Sie sorgen für Zuwachs bei der AfD in Deutschland oder unterstützen Donald Trump in den USA. Was bedeutet das für alle anderen? Müssen wir uns mehr um Männer kümmern – ihnen mehr Aufmerksamkeit schenken? Oder tun wir das nicht ohnehin schon viel zu sehr?Fest steht: Wenn wir Jungen und Männer vernachlässigen, stehen Akteure wie Andrew Tate oder Jordan Peterson bereit, um sie mit fragwürdigen Männlichkeitsbildern weiter zu radikalisieren. Was also tun? In dieser Folge denken wir genau darüber nach – also hört rein!

“Wax on, wax off.” Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasting crew – Ian, Liam, and the triumphant return of Megs (Kev's still away… last seen jogging up a hill in a grey tracksuit muttering “No mercy”) – as we crane kick our way into our 287th episode, tackling the inspirational, emotional, and occasionally questionable The Karate Kid (1984). We're trading crystal fortresses for dojo face-offs and dusty training montages as we discuss: Does Daniel LaRusso bring most of his problems onto himself? We break down whether he's the underdog—or the instigator. What is the difference between a cute girl and a hot girl? And where does Elizabeth Shue's Alli fall on the spectrum of '80s love interests? Does Ralph Macchio wear one of the all-time worst Halloween costumes in movie history? (Spoiler: Yes. Yes, he does.) Can you really learn black belt-level karate in just a few weeks? Or did Daniel unlock cheat codes under Mr. Miyagi's tutelage? Ian goes to war with the score—and one particular song that just doesn't belong. The film suggests America was batty about soccer in the '80s. Was that true… or just wishful screenwriting? Why the studio was reluctant to cast Pat Morita as Mr. Miyagi—and how he proved them all spectacularly wrong. Ian finds a way to shave 10 minutes off the runtime—Miyagi would approve of the efficiency. Why does Daniel's mother uproot their entire life for a job that seems… deeply underwhelming? Does Daniel deserve Alli in the end—or was she just too good for this drama-prone karate kid? We wax (lyrically) on and off about themes, nostalgia, and tournament ethics. And finally, whether The Karate Kid is the Best Film Ever. Become a Patron of this podcast and support the BFE at https://www.patreon.com/BFE.

Superman is back—but not like you've seen him before. James Gunn's first big DCU swing has landed, and we've got questions. Is this actually good? Can it wash away a decade of DC chaos? And why is Krypto the Superdog the real MVP?We unpack all of it: the casting, the tone, the pressure on Gunn's shoulders, and whether this Superman (2025) gives us hope for the future of comic book movies.Spoiler alert: even our biggest Superman hater walked away impressed.
This week on That Tech Pod, Laura and Kevin sit down with Emily Chase Coleman, a leading voice in higher ed analytics, to talk about how data, AI, and shifting policy are transforming the college experience.We kick things off with a look at predictive analytics in enrollment and financial aid. Emily shares the most common misconceptions schools still have about AI, and how generative tools are forcing colleges to rethink academic integrity, fairness, and even the rules around who gets to use AI, and when.As the conversation turns to policy and student loans, Emily weighs in on recent headlines about aid cuts and loan forgiveness battles. She explains how these changes are already affecting how institutions plan for the future, and why equity needs to be at the center of it. We also talk about cybersecurity and student privacy. With ransomware attacks on the rise and more schools moving to the cloud, Emily talks about how institutions can balance being data-driven with protecting student information. Spoiler: most aren't investing enough in cyber defenses. We also look ahead to the next decade. What does the “smart campus” of 2035 look like? How can colleges move from being data-aware to truly data-informed? And if Emily could change just one thing about how universities use data today, what would it be?Emily Chase Coleman is a visionary in higher education analytics, reshaping how institutions use data to drive strategy. As the Co-founder and CEO of HAI Analytics Inc., she helps colleges and universities make informed, data-backed decisions about enrollment, financial aid, and student success. With over 20 years in higher education leadership and a PhD in Social Psychology and Statistics from Cornell, Emily is uniquely positioned to bridge the gap between data science and institutional strategy.At HAI Analytics, Emily is leading the charge in making predictive modeling and data visualization tools more accessible to university decision-makers. Her team has developed an innovative software-with-service platform, empowering institutions to use analytics for long-term sustainability without relying on full-time consultants. Emily is also a strong advocate for education reform, challenging outdated models in admissions and financial aid. She critiques the high-price, high-discount tuition system for exacerbating socioeconomic disparities and pushes for test-optional admissions to promote equity in college access.Beyond higher education, Emily champions women in leadership and tech, sharing insights from her journey as a female founder in edtech and data analytics. She is passionate about increasing representation in STEM and creating pathways for women entrepreneurs.Support a Good Cause:All proceeds from That Tech Pod merch sales during July and August will be donated to the victims of the Camp Mystic tragedy.
