Are you suffering from "crisis fatigue"? In this solo episode of Eyes Wide Open, Nick Thompson shares a raw look at navigating the modern media landscape and provides a survival guide for staying grounded in a world that feels like it's constantly on fire.   In this deeply personal episode, Nick explores the psychological toll of our crisis-saturated media landscape.    Drawing from his own experiences with intense public scrutiny following Love is Blind, he breaks down the brain's response to information overload and why constant "doom-scrolling" is a recipe for burnout.    This episode provides practical strategies for setting digital boundaries, reframing global empathy into local action, and understanding that protecting your mental health is, in itself, a powerful act of activism.    Learn some strategies on how to keep your eyes wide open without losing your peace of mind.   Key Takeaways & Revelations   - Digital Boundaries: Why "silencing notifications" and using "mute functions" are essential tools for reclaiming your attention and reducing anxiety. - The "News Bucket" Strategy: How to slow down your news diet with long-form content instead of the high-cortisol cycle of short-form social media. - Awareness vs. Burnout: Recognizing the fine line between being an informed citizen and being paralyzed by global helplessness. - Micro-Activism: Why shifting your focus from global chaos to local community engagement is the ultimate cure for "compassion fatigue." - Self-Care as Strategy: Understanding that you cannot effectively fight for a better world if your own internal world is in shambles.   Our Mission   Eyes Wide Open is a space for honest communication. Our goal is to remove the stigmas around mental health, holistic lifestyles, culture, and free speech so you can show up as your authentic self with your eyes wide open. By having real conversations about difficult truths, we move toward collective healing.   Chapters   - 00:00 - Welcome: Navigating the feeling of global chaos - 02:10 - Lessons learned from surviving public scrutiny - 06:04 - The science of stress hormones and information overload - 10:20 - Practical Tool: Silencing notifications to regain control - 12:02 - Setting boundaries: The power of the "Mute" button - 14:28 - Why short-form content fuels anxiety - 15:32 - Slowing down: Transitioning to a long-form news diet - 16:25 - Focus on what you can control vs. global helplessness - 18:21 - Digital "Buckets": Setting time boundaries to prevent burnout - 21:01 - From empathy to action: Tangible support in your community - 23:58 - Why mental health is a requirement for effective activism - 26:53 - Final thoughts: Stay open, stay well, and act within your capacity   Find Nick Thompson here:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nthompson513/ | https://www.instagram.com/the_ucan_foundation/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@EyesWideOpenContent LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickthompson13/ UCAN Foundation: https://theucanfoundation.org/ Website: https://www.engagewithnick.com

How can you actually create positive change for appraisers—not just talk about it?Here's one way I've seen firsthand: The Kentucky Association of Appraisers—a newly formed nonprofit created by appraisers, for appraisers—is working to move the profession forward in a meaningful way. A major step happened on February 18, 2026, when HB 355 successfully advanced out of the Kentucky House Banking & Insurance Committee.I had the privilege of testifying in support of the bill, and in this episode I'm joined by someone who has been a driving force behind these efforts: Chris Stewart, MAI and Chair of the KAA Governmental Affairs Committee. In this episode, we cover:What's actually in HB 355 and why it matters to appraisersHow the legislative process works—and what it takes to move a bill to the House floorThe role KAA is playing in shaping the future of the professionA sneak peek at an upcoming KAA meeting, including a class taught by Peter ChristensenIf you've ever wondered how appraisers can have a real voice in policy, regulation, and the future of the profession, this is a must-listen. — Bryan Reynolds

The overwhelming amount of information, emotion, and terror we are experiencing in the world right now can make it hard to know what to do with ourselves. Last week's episode came from my own experience of feeling like I was going to break and realizing my nervous system was completely overloaded. In this episode, I build on that and talk about what to do—because it's not enough to say you will “just get off social media” or “stop doom scrolling.” If it were that simple, I would have stopped, and maybe you would have too. We'll look at why this is so hard to put down and what it takes to step back in a way that allows you to stay informed without losing yourself in the crush of information. Here's what I cover:Why doom scrolling is not activism and can hinder you from taking thoughtful actionThe good girl rules that make disengaging feel like a moral failingWhy learning to regulate your nervous system can be a powerful form of resistanceWhat happens when your reptile brain takes over and you're stuck in looping thoughtsPractical ways to regulate so you can stay informed and respond in ways that actually helpFind Sara here:sarafisk.coachpages.sarafisk.coach/difficultconversationswww.instagram.com/sarafiskcoach/www.facebook.com/SaraFiskCoaching/www.tiktok.com/@sarafiskcoachwww.youtube.com/@sarafiskcoaching1333What happens inside the free Stop People Pleasing Facebook Community?

In this episode of Reptiles With Podcast, we dive into one of the most intense topics in the reptile world—King Cobra handling? Then we shift gears and talk about a reptile show with some seriously wild rules. Are reptile expos becoming too strict—or is it needed for safety and professionalism? This episode is packed with debate, insight, and strong opinions.Sponsored by:MorphMarket: https://www.morphmarket.com/Dubia.com: https://dubiaroaches.com/Coco2Go: https://shop.cocodude.com/MERCH: https://modernreptileshop.com/collections/reptile-merch-for-sale1 Become a Member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaQN1-ZcfQ6ulG2hE41lIKw/joinSubscribe & Hit the Bell to STAY INFORMED!HostsYoshii @modernreptileshop Chuckey @madbioreptilesEric @reptiverseThe Reptiles With Podcast covers Repti-Culture with a comedic twist.

What if robots could handle tedious retraction, precise bone milling, or even autonomous suturing, freeing surgeons to focus on complex decision-making and more patients?In this episode of the Succeed In Medicine Podcast, Dr. Bradley Block speaks with Dr. Michael Yip, as he explains that today's robots primarily serve as extensions of human surgeons via teleoperation (e.g., da Vinci for precision in hard-to-reach areas), enhancing dexterity, visualization, and accuracy rather than replacing them. He highlights existing autonomous applications in "hard tissue" procedures like the Mako or Stryker robots for precise bone milling in joint replacements, and non-contact examples like CyberKnife for focused radiation therapy.For soft tissue surgery, the more challenging domain due to tissue deformation and variability, autonomy is emerging in simpler, repetitive tasks such as retraction, suctioning, or basic suturing, with demonstrations dating back 15 years but real-world deployment lagging due to engineering, data, and economic hurdles. Dr. Yip discusses why demos in controlled settings don't easily translate to ORs, the shift to data-driven AI (with risks of out-of-distribution failures), and regulatory challenges like FDA expertise gaps and defining probabilistic safety. He predicts stepwise adoption: starting with assistant-level tasks (replacing med student/intern roles in retraction/suction), then progressing to free surgeons for higher-value work, especially in underserved rural areas via telesurgery. Full "skin-to-skin" autonomy (e.g., simple lipoma excision or appendectomy) remains years away, limited by hardware combining strength, dexterity, and precision in one system, though teams of specialized robots could accelerate progress. Ultimately, robotics will alleviate surgeon burnout from growing demand, not eliminate jobs soon.Three Actionable TakeawaysEmbrace Robotics Early in Training: Surgeons and trainees should gain hands-on experience with diverse robotic technologies now, treating them as essential tools that augment precision and dexterity rather than threats to obsolescence.Focus on Repetitive Tasks for Autonomy Gains: Prioritize robotic assistance in tedious, physically demanding steps like retraction, suctioning, or basic closure to free up time, reduce fatigue, and improve efficiency in high-volume or resource-limited settings.Stay Informed on Regulatory and Economic Shifts: Monitor evolving FDA guidelines for AI/surgical autonomy, economic incentives (e.g., cost savings in joint replacements or anastomosis), and liability frameworks to prepare for integration that enhances patient access and outcomes.About the Show:Succeed In Medicine covers patient interactions, burnout, career growth, personal finance, and more. If you're tired of dull medical lectures, tune in for real-world lessons we should have learned in med school!About the Guest:Dr. Michael Yip is an Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at UC San Diego and Director of the Advanced Robotics and Controls Laboratory (ARCLab). His research focuses on surgical robots, biomimetic design, robot learning, autonomous robotic surgery, and deformable tissue manipulation. He has received the NSF CAREER Award, NIH Trailblazer Award, IEEE RAS Distinguished Lecturer recognition, and was named Faculty Innovator of the Year at UCSD in 2024 and elected to the National Academy of Inventors. Previously a Disney researcher at Amazon Robotics, he holds a BSc in Mechatronics Engineering from the University of Waterloo, MS in Electrical Engineering from the University of British Columbia, and PhD in Bioengineering from Stanford University.Website: yip.eng.ucsd.edu and ucsdarclab.comAbout the Host:Dr. Bradley Block – Dr. Bradley Block is a board-certified otolaryngologist at ENT and Allergy Associates in Garden City, NY.

An appraiser named John called me in a panic. He was headed to court and needed help — fast.Not only did John ask what he should wear to trial, he also asked a much bigger question: How do I effectively explain my opinion of value when the other expert valued the land, valued the house separately, and added them together — resulting in a much higher value?In this episode, I share a real-life courtroom story involving a house on forty acres, competing expert opinions, and how to clearly explain valuation methodology in a way that judges and attorneys actually understand.As a sidebar, I also talk about the four economic influences an item must possess to achieve value, and how the absence of even one can cause value to diminish — or disappear entirely.Most importantly, I share how John turned what he thought would be a horrifying court appearance into a great opportunity to expand his practice, build credibility, and make good money doing it.If you've ever worried about testifying in court, explaining complex appraisal concepts in plain English, or being challenged by another expert's methodology, this episode is for you. — Bryan Reynolds

The year 2026 is off to a volatile start, and this week on the Transfix Take podcast, we're breaking down the perfect storm of record-breaking weather, shifting rate cycles, and a major regulatory crackdown in California. If you're a freight broker or transportation professional trying to navigate the "capacity red zone," this episode is your essential guide to staying ahead of the game. Inside This Episode: Winter Storm Fern & The Capacity Red Zone: A massive "Arctic blast" has blanketed the Northeast and Southern Plains, with Yonkers, NY seeing up to 15 inches of snow and Texas grappling with black ice and freezing rain. We break down the regional road closures (I-95, I-40, I-81) and explain why a massive backlog of freight is building in the South. The California CDL Crackdown: Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy has announced a "national emergency," withholding $160 million in highway funding from California after the state failed to revoke roughly 17,000 "illegally issued" non-domiciled CDLs. Could this lead to a significant capacity shift in early 2026? Market Trends & Rate Forecasts: National average line haul rates saw a staggering 25% increase from December through mid-January. While rates traditionally decline through April, the persistent winter weather has halted that downward trend. Justin Maze shares his outlook on where contract rates will land and why the market might be in for a "fun ride" through Q1. Macroeconomic Signals: With the Federal Reserve meeting this week, all eyes are on a potential interest rate cut. We discuss how housing starts and manufacturing demand remain the real drivers for a market turnaround. Regional Market Snapshots: Southeast: Slim uptick expected as carriers battle facility closures and backlogs. Northeast & Midwest: Heavy snow in PA and Wisconsin is tightening capacity and driving spot rates upward. West Coast: The "lucky" region with 70-degree weather, but keep an eye on how California's regulatory issues impact the broader driver pool. Don't miss our special announcement!

In an emotional episode you won't want to miss, former journalist Pauleen Le talks about living in Minneapolis during ICE raids, and the heart ache she went through making the decision to carry her passport, despite being a US citizen. Pauleen talks about her work at Project for Pride in Living in Minneapolis, and how the community she serves is impacted by the uncertainty of the constant ICE presence.  Part of our conversation touched on something personal I recently shared on Facebook: that I've started carrying my passport with me. It's a feeling many in communities across the Twin Cities and beyond understand far too well, and it's one of the reasons these conversations matter. Pauleen Le Mark then talks about the argument that Donald Trump was not to blame for January 6th because the Capitol Police was "not prepared." Don't miss this one! Guest: Pauleen Le

Welcome to Tuesday and even though its a cold one out there (Currently it's a balmy 9 degrees outside), we open the show up with a look at the news including the possible loss of major funding to Wisconsin Hospitals and why Democratic lawmakers are asking a GOP Congressman for help. We also discuss the farmers' bailout, which is set to hit bank accounts next month. And we hear from you about why this isn't the fix some say it is and why we can't learn from history. As always, thank you for listening, texting and calling, we couldn't do this without you! Don't forget to download the free Civic Media app and take us wherever you are in the world! Matenaer On Air is a part of the Civic Media radio network and airs weekday mornings from 9-11 across the state. Subscribe to the podcast to be sure not to miss out on a single episode!
