Shutterstock Track 1219389Monetization ID TFGEPGEI0LHEIJAIKia ora.Welcome to Wednesday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from interest.co.nz.Today we lead with news the bond market is shouting louder warnings at US policymakers. And China is rolling out more stimulus and subsidies to counter a growing slowdown there.First today, the overnight Pulse dairy auction delivered mixed results although both the SMP and WMP prices rose from the prior event, up by about +1.6% in USD terms. But as the NZD took a bit of a thrashing overnight, these prices were up more than +3% in local currency terms.Also mixed were the August US JOLTS labour market data. While much of it was little-changed, the number of job openings fell by an outsized -256,000 to just over 7 mln, the lowest in five months. Analysts had expected them to rise to 7.23 mln so this is a notable miss. And the fall was broad-based in most sectors and most regions, although the South did manage to book a small rise.The US Conference Board reported a sharp fall in consumer sentiment in September, in fact taking it to its lowest since 2014. While it isn't as low as the University of Michigan survey yet, it is tracking in the same negative direction, both for its Present, and Expected monitoring of sentiment.Yesterday we reported a positive Dallas Fed factory survey, even if it is suffering high cost challenges. But today's update on the Texas services sector is not so bright with a 'stall' reported and their first decline in four months. They also reported increased strain in input and selling prices.Canada reported that their August economic activity rose, their tenth rise in the past twelve months and through a difficult period. That likely puts their GDP up +1.7% real from a year ago. Their 'resilient economy' may be enough for the Bank of Canada to start hiking rates again to contain the inflation pressures building again. The next rate review there is on October 28 (the same as the RBNZ).In China, businesses there are said to be facing weak demand ahead of their Golden Week holiday. And that has pushed the Chinese central bank to lower a technical interest rate. And Beijing is to start subsidising mortgage interest rates for low income borrowers, aiming to create demand in their housing markets.EU business and consumer sentiment sagged in September, but to be fair the overall level is still sitting close to its long-run average. The movement is basically due to lower confidence by consumers as they look forward to winter and an uncertain energy outlook.In Australia, the RBA delivered the expected +25 bps rate change. That raises this rate to its highest in the developed world. They emphasised their strong commitment to the inflation fight and noted that more hikes may be needed before that is won. They are in an "whatever it takes" mindset now, and their new rate levels are 15 year highs.Meanwhile, global air cargo demand rose +4.4% in August from a year ago, largely on work-arounds from the disrupted seas trade on major routes. International volumes were up +5.3% with Asia/Pacific volumes up +5.5%. But it was the +10.1% jump in North American volumes that is the standout feature, a notable rush to shore up supply lines ahead of more expected policy disruptions.The UST 10yr yield is now just under 5.27%, up another +3 bps from yesterday and a new high since June 2007. The 30 year yield is at 5.60%, up +6 bps and its highest since January 2001.The price of gold is at US$4148/oz and up +US$11 from yesterday. Silver is at just under US$61.50/oz and almost -US$1.Oil prices have fallen -US$2.50/bbl from yesterday to just over US$90.50/bbl in the US, while the international Brent price is just under US$103.50/bbl and also down -US$2.50. This is all due to the US releasing more from their strategic reserves, although Saudi Arabia also confirmed that its pipeline repairs are complete too.The Kiwi dollar is down a sharpish +40 bps from yesterday, now at 56.3 USc and that is now a ten month low. Against the Aussie we are unchanged at 80.8 AUc. Against the euro we are down -20 bps at just on 49.7 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just over 60 and down -40 bps yesterday and that takes us down to a level we last had in 2009, a 17 year low.The bitcoin price starts today at US$82,936 and down -0.8% from yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest at just under +/-1.0%.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora.

Connect with me here in text… tell me where you are listening. You can love God and still feel stuck at a crossroads, begging for a sign while your mind spins with fear, second-guessing, and pressure to “get it right.” We start with Proverbs 3:5–6 and admit how easily we latch onto the promise “He will direct your paths” while skipping the harder invitation that comes first: trust the Lord with all your heart, and don't lean on your own understanding. That single reorder changes everything about Christian decision-making, spiritual growth, and discerning God's will.We also share a framework learned through clinical pastoral education that names four levels of conversation: chit-chat, everyday conversation, counseling, and what we call “holy ground” the place where we encounter God and leave changed. Guidance often fails to land because we stay surface-level with God, asking for directions without offering our real selves. When we finally bring the afraid part, the angry part, the ashamed part, and the exhausted part, we stop performing and start transforming.The heart of this message is a vulnerable story from the night before CPE began: loneliness, depression, a wall of fear, and an hour of rage-prayer that ends with a still small voice saying, “Now you own your fears… you can give them to me.” We dig into the freeing truth that you cannot surrender what you refuse to acknowledge. Crossroads is not mainly about choosing a road; it's the moment your life and the cross intersect, and you let Jesus deal with the person who will walk the path.If you're searching for direction, come listen, then share this with someone who feels stuck and leave a review so more people can find these conversations about trust, surrender, and holy ground.Support the showwww.Turning180.com

Connect with me here in text… tell me where you are listening. You can memorise Proverbs 3:5-6 and still feel stuck at the same crossroads, asking God for a map while your inner world stays loud, anxious, and bruised. We wrestle with a different idea of Christian guidance: God often deals with the one who walks the road before he points to the road itself. If you've been praying for direction about a decision, a calling, a relationship, or what comes next, this message invites you to look beneath the question and notice what's happening in your heart. We share a raw story from clinical pastoral education that exposes how fear, depression, loneliness, and self-talk can hijack spiritual discernment. Along the way, we lay out four levels of conversation: chitchat, conversation, counseling, and holy ground. Holy ground is not a mood or a moment. It is an encounter with God that actually changes us, even when the setting looks ordinary. The turning point is simple but demanding: you cannot surrender what you refuse to acknowledge. Trusting God with all your heart includes the afraid part, the angry part, the questioning part, and the resistant part. Acknowledging him in all your ways means giving Jesus access to the patterns you live by, not just the parts you want to show. Crossroads becomes a powerful definition for spiritual formation: the place where your life and the cross intersect, and honesty makes room for transformation. If this resonates, listen all the way through and share it with someone who's carrying a heavy decision.

The Behavioral Observations Podcast with Matt Cicoria
Are we thinking about prompts all wrong? Session 339 with Andy Bondy

The Behavioral Observations Podcast with Matt Cicoria

What exactly do we mean when we say we're "fading" a prompt? Is a physical prompt inherently more intrusive—or more difficult to eliminate—than a gestural or verbal prompt? And what does "errorless learning" actually tell us about the teaching procedures we're using? Dr. Andy Bondy returns to the podcast to tackle these questions through the lens of gradualism: the idea that meaningful behavioral change often emerges through small changes that accumulate over time. Andy has recently been presenting on gradualism to behavior analysts and other professionals, and in this conversation we explore what the concept might contribute to the way we think about teaching, prompting, generalization, and skill development. We begin by discussing gradualism across fields such as biology, geology, and psychology before turning to its implications for behavior analysis. Andy contrasts the traditional tendency to examine discrete behavioral units with an approach that considers the flow of behavior across longer periods of time. From there, we take a closer look at prompts. Andy distinguishes prompts from cues and argues that prompts should be defined functionally—by whether they actually improve performance—rather than simply by their form. We also examine some familiar language surrounding prompt hierarchies. In particular, Andy questions terms such as "intrusiveness" and "restrictiveness" when those properties aren't tied to directly measurable dimensions. If we're fading a prompt, he argues, we should be able to say what we're actually changing: distance, force, volume, time, or another measurable property. This leads to a larger question: Is there evidence that particular types of prompts are universally easier or harder to fade? We discuss the implications of that question for commonly used least-to-most and most-to-least prompting systems, as well as what it might look like to assess prompt effectiveness at the level of the individual learner and skill rather than relying exclusively on predetermined hierarchies. Later in the conversation, we broaden the discussion to generalization and fluency. Andy argues that programming for generalization shouldn't begin only after a skill reaches mastery and that behavior analysts should attend not only to stimulus generalization, but also to important dimensions of the response itself—including rate, duration, speed, and fluency. Finally, we discuss "errorless learning." Andy questions whether the term provides enough information about what an instructor is actually doing and suggests that minimizing errors—while naming the specific procedures being used, such as fading or time delay—may be a more useful way to describe our teaching. Topics discussed include: What gradualism means in behavior analysis Prompts versus cues What makes a prompt a prompt Prompt fading versus changing prompt types Problems with terms such as "intrusiveness" and "restrictiveness" Whether prompt hierarchies should be individualized Assessing prompt effectiveness Stimulus and response generalization Accuracy versus fluency Programming for rate and speed Why generalization should be considered from the beginning of instruction "Errorless learning" versus minimizing errors The importance of describing teaching procedures in measurable, observable terms This conversation offers a useful challenge to several pieces of behavior-analytic terminology that can become so familiar that we stop asking exactly what they mean—and whether our language accurately describes what we're doing.

Connect with me here in text… tell me where you are listening. A closed door can feel like God rejecting you, when it might be God protecting you and forming you. We start with Jacob stepping into a new morning with a limp and a new name, then connect it to Paul's words in 2 Corinthians 3:18: we are transformed as we behold the glory of the Lord, “from glory to glory,” by the Spirit. That lens changes how we read our own uncertainty. We may not know what happens next, but something is still happening in us while we keep walking forward. We talk about why “change your mindset, change your life” is true but incomplete. Better self-talk can help you face difficulty, failure, and growth, yet lasting spiritual transformation goes deeper than phrasing. Jesus works heart first. When life is in disarray, getting your heart back on center is often the first step toward clarity, courage, and a renewed willingness to engage your calling without being crushed by it. Then we tell a vulnerable story from seminary: being told “you're not ready,” hearing it as “your calling isn't real,” and slowly learning that calling and readiness are not the same thing. That moment leads through Chicago, a short ten-week pastoral season, and a new start at Candler School of Theology. Along the way we wrestle with a hard truth for Christian discipleship: experience does not automatically make us mature, but the Shepherd can use every season to form Christ's likeness in us. If you're navigating a detour, a setback, or big questions about God's direction, press play and sit with us in the tension.

Connect with me here in text… tell me where you are listening. Failure can feel like a verdict, but what if it is actually a turning point? We open with 2 Corinthians 3:18 and sit with Paul's claim that real transformation happens as we behold the glory of the Lord and are changed by the Spirit. That single idea confronts a temptation many of us carry: trying to fix ourselves through sheer effort, better phrasing, or a tougher mindset. Those tools can help, but they are not the engine of Christian spiritual growth.We talk honestly about calling, correction, and the painful gap between where we are and where we believe God is leading us. A calling can be real while maturity is still under construction. We reflect on how easy it is to confuse “not ready” with “not called,” and how an inner rebel can turn feedback into a fight. Along the way, we connect Jacob's night of wrestling and his limp to our own stories: we move into the next day not finished, but different.The conversation moves through detours that look temporary or disappointing but become formative: internships, unexpected appointments, new schools, long commutes, and the slow work of learning how to think, listen, and follow. We also name a hard truth for anyone chasing “spiritual maturity” as a finish line: pain does not automatically make you wise, age does not automatically make you holy, and experience does not automatically make you Christ-like. Only the Holy Spirit can form Christlikeness as we keep our eyes on Jesus.If you are asking what comes next, or you are living in a season you did not plan, this is a reminder that the Shepherd is still speaking and still forming you.

Connect with me here in text… tell me where you are listening. “Just trust God” sounds strong until you're the one staring at a door that just slammed shut. We talk about what happens when you genuinely believe God led you somewhere, but the path turns confusing, lonely, and expensive, emotionally and spiritually. I share a defining season from seminary where an advisory group has the power to end my plans, and how that moment exposes the real question many of us carry: not “Do I trust God?” but “What does trusting God look like right now?”From there, we step into Genesis and follow Jacob as God tells him to return home with no explanation of the outcome. Jacob obeys, then hears that Esau is coming with 400 men. Fear surges, plans get made, prayers get honest, and Jacob reaches the point where community cannot go further for him. That tension helps us name something crucial about Christian guidance and discernment: circumstances and voices can bring information, but only the Shepherd can give orientation.We also sit with Genesis 32 and the night Jacob wrestles for a blessing. Wrestling is not faithlessness; sometimes it is what faith looks like when the future is unclear.

Connect with me here in text… tell me where you are listening. “Return… and I will be with you” sounds comforting until returning is risky, confusing, and costly. We open Genesis 31:3 and step into Jacob's story at the exact moment obedience gets complicated: God gives a clear direction but not a clear outcome, and Jacob has to walk toward home while Esau approaches with 400 men. If you have ever asked, “Did I hear God right?” or “What am I supposed to do now?” you will feel seen.We also share a personal crossroads from seminary, when an advisory group held the power to say “you cannot come back.” That kind of pressure exposes how easy it is to confuse our interpretation of a calling with the only faithful path forward. We talk about why phrases like “just trust God” can land hollow, and how spiritual maturity asks better questions: Am I holding on because God told me to, or because letting go feels like failure? Am I trying to leave because God is leading somewhere else, or because staying hurts?Along the way we challenge a common myth about spiritual guidance: that following God always comes with perfect peace and perfectly aligned circumstances. Fear does not automatically mean stop. Difficulty does not automatically mean keep going. Circumstances give information, but the Shepherd gives orientation, and yesterday's guidance never replaces today's dependence.

Jeremy Smith returns to the podcast ahead of Rails World to talk about his upcoming presentation, Practical Hotwire: Turbo and Stimulus on the Ground. Jeremy shares how years of working with Hotwire in real Rails applications led him to identify a dozen recurring problems and pitfalls involving Stimulus, Turbo Drive, Turbo Frames, and Turbo Streams. He also walks through the surprisingly extensive process of turning those lessons into a 30-minute conference talk, including building a dedicated demo application, creating before-and-after examples, recording screencasts, researching edge cases, and using AI tools to help organize and refine the material. They also discuss Jeremy's decision to structure the talk around a Hot Ones-style progression of increasingly spicy Hotwire problems, the difficulty of deciding what to cut from an overstuffed technical presentation, and what actually makes a conference talk useful and memorable. Finally, Jeremy previews one of the strongest opinions in the talk: that developers should often prefer Turbo Streams over Turbo Frames. He explains how Frames can introduce indirection and limitations as applications grow, why Streams can offer a more flexible approach, and how different Rails teams can arrive at very different—but equally valid—ways of using Hotwire in production.

Connect with me here in text… tell me where you are listening. You can memorize “Follow me” and still miss how radical it is. We tend to treat faith like a travel itinerary: show us the destination, spell out the risks, then we will decide. But Jesus reverses that logic. The Good Shepherd does not hand us the full route for our lives. He invites us into trust, and the invitation is strong enough to settle our “yes” before we know what the road holds. We unpack John 10:27 phrase by phrase, then focus on the part that is easiest to gloss over: “and they follow me.” Following can mean taking a real step into the unknown, but it can also mean staying put and learning, serving what is right in front of you, and letting discipleship do its slow work. We also name the “stranger voices” that compete for leadership in our hearts: fear, worry, exhaustion, shame after failure, old pain, and even the opinions of others. Some voices can inform us, but they cannot shepherd us. Then the lens widens from “me and Jesus” to “they follow me.” We are a flock, not a collection of lone sheep. That becomes tangible at the communion table, where bread and cup proclaim the Shepherd who gives his life, and the table itself declares belonging, welcome, and shared purpose. We come with one “yes,” and we leave ready to live the next one. If this speaks to you, subscribe so you do not miss what comes next, share the episode with someone who needs a steadier voice, and leave a review to help more people find it.

Connect with me here in text… tell me where you are listening. You can spend years thinking “follow Jesus” means constant movement, big decisions, and dramatic stories, then discover the real challenge is trust. We lean into John 10:27 where Jesus says, “My sheep hear my voice… and they follow me,” and we slow down long enough to ask what that actually requires when you do not know the destination. We talk about why Jesus rarely gives a full map, and why demanding certainty can quietly flip the relationship so we become the judge of the call. Instead, discipleship grows out of familiarity with the Shepherd's voice. We share how faith often becomes clearer in retrospect, and how the next step may be impossible to predict but still possible to obey. Then we name three practical forms of following: going when Jesus leads into a new assignment, learning and serving faithfully where you are, and stopping your allegiance to voices that try to lead you. Fear, exhaustion, failure, pain, and other people can speak, sometimes with real information, but they do not get to be the shepherd.

Ben Fudge, head coach of the Elite program at Trevor Kashey Nutrition and a former Army Ranger, reveals Cognitive Nutrition: a behavior-first method that turns new eating habits into skills that finally hold. He walks through the SRO model, why you track before you target, and how to stay calm when the cookie is right in front of you. Meet our guest Ben Fudge is the head coach of the Elite program at Trevor Kashey Nutrition (TKN). A former Army Ranger with four overseas deployments, he brings military-grade discipline and structure to coaching built on TKN's Cognitive Nutrition method, developed by Dr. Trevor Kashey.

Connect with me here in text… tell me where you are listening. If the loudest voice in your life is exhaustion, anxiety, or the fear of getting it wrong, it's easy to assume that voice is telling the truth about who you are. We push back on that assumption with one line of Scripture that refuses to let “noise” be the final authority: John 10:27, “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.” We talk about the roles many of us learned in our families, the strong one, the helper, the achiever, the peacemaker, the rebel, the comedian, and how those hats can quietly become masks that protect our hearts while also keeping us stuck.We also wrestle with what it means for Jesus to know us completely and still move toward us. The word “and” changes everything: Jesus doesn't only know us, he makes his home with us. Even when your mind races, your emotions react, and your body carries old stress, Christ is still present at the center. We share a personal story of burnout and self-doubt that sounded persuasive on the surface, then show how Jesus reframes the moment by naming what's true at the core: a heart that still loves God.From Psalm 46, “Be still and know that I am God,” we explore stillness as spiritual orientation, not denial.

Connect with me here in text… tell me where you are listening. You can be doing everything “right” and still feel like you are bracing for impact. We start with a simple image that gets uncomfortably accurate fast: the hats we learn to wear in our families. The strong one, the helper, the achiever, the peacemaker, the rebel, the comic relief. Some of those roles hold real gifts, but they can also become masks we use to manage tension, avoid rejection, and keep the vulnerable parts of us out of reach.From there, we name the cost. Living from self-protection creates nonstop internal noise: reading the room, second-guessing tone, chasing approval, fearing failure, hiding struggle, and trying to control what happens next. It is exhausting, and it can distort how we interpret our circumstances. We explore what John 10:27 means when Jesus says, “I know them,” and why being fully known can feel unsafe when access has often led to pain.Then we lean into the “and.” Jesus does not only know us; he makes his home in us (John 14:23). That changes the whole map. Exhaustion, fear, and pain can give us information, but they cannot give us orientation. We share a story from a season of burnout in seminary where failure felt like proof of a broken calling, and how one truth from Jesus re-centered everything: the heart can still be aligned with God even when the rest of us is loud, tired, and confused. We close with a practical invitation toward stillness, congruence with Christ, and a way of love that is no longer just protective, but formed by the Shepherd at the center.If this helped you name the hat you have been wearing, subscribe, share the episode with a friend, and leave a review.

For decades, women with low bone density were told to take it easy; Professor Belinda Beck's research proved the opposite: high-intensity resistance and impact training safely rebuilds bone, even in women who had been told their bones were too fragile to lift heavy. Belinda covers the full arc of bone health, from how peak bone mass is set in the teenage years, to what actually happens to bone when estrogen declines through perimenopause and menopause, to why so many popular "safe" exercises, including walking, cycling, and Pilates, simply don't provide enough stimulus to protect bone. They dig into the physiology of bone remodelling, the real evidence (and lack of it) behind weighted vests, how to read a DEXA scan, and practical calcium and vitamin D guidance. Belinda also shares the story behind LIFTMOR itself, including how her research team was once considered reckless for asking postmenopausal women to lift heavy, and how those same women ended up stronger, more confident, and more independent than they'd been in decades.

Connect with me here in text… tell me where you are listening. There's a moment most of us know too well: you hear yourself say something sharp, you overreact, you shut down, and later you wonder, Why did I do that? We start with Jesus' words from John 10:27, “My sheep hear my voice,” and ask a hard question: what happens when we're not close enough to recognize the Shepherd, and not honest enough to recognize ourselves?We talk about the “know yourself” advice our culture loves, then push deeper into why self-knowledge gets distorted by pain. Over time, we learn to present the version of us that wins approval and avoids criticism. We call it personality, strength, or maturity, but it can become a mask. In church, that can turn into what we call the “Jesus mask” where we look faithful while hiding fear, doubt, shame, and old wounds. The result is a life where we're “selectively known” by others and eventually hard to fully know even to ourselves.From there we trace how the inner wall gets built brick by brick: rejection, betrayal, failure, abandonment, and sometimes severe trauma that teaches us being seen is not safe. We name the coping that follows, the shame that grows around it, and the exhausting cycle of hiding. Then we sit with the words that feel both threatening and relieving: Jesus says, “I know you.” He sees behind the wall, understands why every brick is there, and knows the difference between what happened to you and who you are.If you've been searching for a safe place to be fully known without performing, this is for you.

Connect with me here in text… tell me where you are listening. The most unsettling words Jesus can say might be the most healing: “I know you.” Not the version you polish for people, not the version that performs, but the person behind the wall. We start with John 10:27 and a brutally honest story of burnout and doubt, when every voice in the head gets loud and even God feels far away. From there, we ask a question most of us avoid: are we actually capable of knowing ourselves, or are we mostly reading our lives through exhaustion, rejection, failure, and fear?We talk about identity formation and the “masks” we learn early, the roles that look like strengths but often began as protection. Independence can be a response to not feeling safe. Helping can become a way to feel needed. Even Christian behavior can turn into a “Jesus mask,” where we look faithful while quietly wondering what would happen if anyone saw what we hide. That tension creates a life of selective being known, and eventually we forget what we are protecting at all.Then we name the wall for what it is: bricks laid down through wounds, trauma, abandonment, betrayal, and shame. We explore the pain relief loop, how busyness, achievement, relationships, addiction, or compulsions can numb what hurts, and how shame quickly turns coping into deeper hiding. The turning point is learning that Jesus knows what happened to you and also knows who you are, and those are not the same. If you are longing for Christian healing, freedom from shame, and a more honest identity in Christ, this is a place to breathe.Subscribe for more, share this with someone who feels stuck behind a wall, and leave a review telling us what line stayed with you.Support the showwww.Turning180.com

Connect with me here in text… tell me where you are listening. Your life can be silent on the outside and still deafening on the inside. We start with Jesus' words from John 10, “My sheep hear my voice,” then tell the honest truth: when anxiety spikes, bills hit, relationships sting, and your own thoughts won't stop, it's hard to know which voice is actually Jesus and which voice just sounds convincing. We unpack how competing voices work, why they often contradict each other, and how fear can disguise itself as guidance. Along the way, we share a story from seminary that hits close to home: workload, exhaustion, pressure to perform, heartbreak, and a growing temptation to quit that sounded like “freedom.” One line becomes a lens for real-life Christian discernment: deceitful voices speak half truths to get your full attention. The turning point comes not through a quick fix, but through stillness, honesty, and a gentle voice of love that cuts through the noise. Psalm 46:10 moves from a familiar verse to a survival practice, and we learn to separate a closed door from a difficult path.

We start with John 10:27, “My sheep hear my voice,” then get honest about what it feels like to be the sheep, trying to sort out which voice is Jesus and which voice is fear, shame, anxiety, or plain old exhaustion.We share a real story from seminary where a clear calling gets tested by workload, ministry pressure, distraction, and heartbreak. Along the way we name a pattern that explains so much spiritual confusion: deceitful voices often speak half truths to get your full attention. The facts may be real (you're tired, you're behind, this is hard), but the conclusion (you must have heard God wrong) can be the trap.The turning point comes at a breaking moment on a staircase, when God's voice shows up not as criticism but as love: “You're doing this because you love me.” That single sentence reframes everything, quiets the inner committee, and turns the question from “Should I quit?” into “What gets done first?” We also talk about stillness, prayer, Psalms, and practical boundaries that help you grow familiar with the Shepherd's voice over time.If you've been overwhelmed, second guessing your calling, or interpreting difficulty as a closed door, press play.

In this episode, we continue our discussion of Stephen Covey's idea of the space between stimulus and response and how leaders often react automatically instead of responding with intention. We look at why people become reactive, including habit, wiring, and learned patterns, and we discuss examples from leadership and sales where an immediate reaction can damage relationships. We also explore ways to widen the gap by observing before judging, naming emotions, asking what is driving a reaction, and checking decisions against заранее defined values. We close by returning to the idea that while we cannot control every outcome, we can control our response and use that pause to support steadier leadership and better long-term relationships.

"Either you can fight a slowing economy or you can fight inflation. You can't do both at the same time."   On May 15th, Kevin Warsh replaces Jerome Powell as chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank and President Trump has made clear he would only appoint someone willing to cut interest rates. The immediate story is mortgage rates and housing affordability. The deeper story is a $39 trillion national debt crisis, a government spending $2 trillion more than it collects every year, and a playbook last used after World War II to inflate away the debt without paying it back.   Jaspreet Singh breaks down how financial repression worked between 1946 and 1974. Cutting rates below inflation to let the government borrow for free, growing the economy faster than the debt, and making savers poorer in the process, and why the conditions today look strikingly similar.   In this episode, you'll learn: How a drop in mortgage rates from 7% to 4.5% saves a homeowner over $600 a month and why Trump is already moving without the Fed, demanding Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac buy $200 billion in mortgage-backed securities to push rates lower now How the 1946–1974 financial repression worked: the government kept interest rates artificially below inflation, pressured institutions to lend to the government at a loss, and grew the debt-to-GDP ratio from 121% down to 25%  Why today's situation is worse than post-WWII: the current debt-to-GDP ratio sits around 130%, interest payments already consume 20 cents of every tax dollar collected, and cutting rates would save the government hundreds of billions annually in interest Five investment categories to watch if this plays out: real estate ETFs (VNQ, XHB, ITB), gold as an inflation hedge (GLD), inflation-protected treasuries (SCHP), broad U.S. market exposure (SPY), and international diversification through developed (VEA) or emerging markets (VWO)   Keywords: Federal Reserve, Kevin Warsh, mortgage rates, financial repression, national debt, inflation hedge, interest rates, housing market, S&P 500, gold investing     Want more financial news?

We have covered volume a handful of times on the podcast — ETP#167 (Personalizing Your Training Volume), ETP#188 (Quality Volume), and most recently ETP#207 (The Training Volume Model). This one comes at it from a different angle: not "what's the right number of sets," but how that number can change over a training career as skill as a lifter improves.The whole thing started with Aaron's quads. They used to be the body part he was almost ashamed of, and now they're on par with everything else. Except he only trains them once a week, six sets, and they're in shambles for five or six days afterward. That low a dose creating that much stimulus had Aaron questioning a lot of things, mainly: what actually makes a lagging body part lag? Is it genetics, or is it that you just haven't figured out how to contract the muscle well enough yet? Aaron's honest belief is leaning hard toward the second one.So we get into the precision side of volume. Why a row isn't always a 1.0 stimulus, why your weak points might not need more sets so much as better execution, how strength curves explain why back and delts get buried under volume while quads light up off almost nothing, and how to actually manipulate all of this with rep ranges and resistance profiles. Plus some personal updates up top, including one of Aaron's that went unexpectedly viral.Covered in this episode:Why volume needs can drop as your precision and skill improve, and the asterisk on "more volume is better until it isn't"Aaron's theory that lagging body parts lag because you haven't learned to contract them well — not because of geneticsThe Kyle Baxter pronation/foot-pressure cue that finally unlocked Aaron's quadsWhy quads hold post-workout stimulus for days when nothing else does (blood flow, lengthened overload, and the fact that we walk on our legs)Strength curve vs resistance curve, and why short-overloaded muscles like delts and back need more volume to reach the same inroadsThe leaning lateral raise trick — disadvantaging your own bad habit to force a better stimulusUsing the 15/10/5 rep scheme to go short on the high-rep sets and lengthened on the low-rep setsPrioritization: deprioritize what's already good and pour the days into what you actually want to bring upHamstrings/biceps vs quads/triceps, the cramp problem, and why some muscles just don't follow the same rulesTimestamps: 00:00 Intro: How Much Is Enough? + The Prior Volume Episodes 01:00 Bryan's Update: 15/10/5 and Why Full Body Is "For the Birds" 03:00 Aaron's Personal Update + The Post That Went Viral 05:00 The 1989 LA Raiders Mug 06:00 The Real Topic: Volume Dose Response Per Muscle Group 07:00 Can Precision Change Your Volume Needs? 08:00 Aaron's Quads: From Lagging to Wrecked on Six Sets 09:00 What Actually Makes a Lagging Body Part? 10:00 Lengthened Overload and Leaning Into the Stretch 12:00 Squat Variables: Stance, Knee Tracking, Foot Pressure 13:00 The Kyle Baxter Pronation Cue 15:00 Aaron's Current Quad Setup (Leg Extension + Squat Pattern) 17:00 Six Sets, Shattered for Days + Repeated Bout Effect 21:00 The Post-Workout Stimulus Window: Quads vs Everything Else 22:00 Double the Chest Volume, Lower the Stimulus 23:00 The "Washing Your Hair" Delt Test 24:00 Splitting Volume vs One Big Day 25:00 Aaron's Theory: Lagging = Not Contracting Well Yet 27:00 The Leaning Lateral Raise (Disadvantaging the Shrug) 29:00 Strength Curve vs Resistance Curve 30:00 Why Beginners Can't Feel Their Legs 31:00 Blood Flow, Bro Splits, and Dispersed Stimulus 33:00 Prioritizing: Deprioritize What's Already Good 34:00 Building a Program Around Your Weak Points 35:00 Aaron's Back Days: High Volume, Still Can't Feel It 37:00 Why Back and Delts Need More Volume 38:00 Manipulating Resistance Profiles Across a Whole Day 39:00 The 15/10/5: Short on the Highs, Lengthened on the Lows 41:00 The Asterisk on "More Volume Is Better" 42:00 A Row Isn't Always a 1.0 Stimulus 43:00 Finding the Rep Range Before Weight Takes Over 44:00 Pausing in the Short Position to Build the Pattern 47:00 Hamstrings, Biceps, and the Cramp Problem 49:00 Biceps Femoris: Pullers vs Pushers 50:00 Why Quads Are Just Different Post-Workout 52:00 Closing: Training Maturity and Looking Inward Work 1:1 with Aaron ⬇️https://strakernutritionco.com/nutrition-coaching-apply-now/Done For You Client Check-In System for Coaches ⬇️https://strakernutritionco.com/macronutrient-reporting-check-in-template/Paragon Training Methods Programming ⬇️https://paragontrainingmethods.comFollow Bryan's Evolved Training Systems Programming ⬇️https://evolvedtrainingsystems.comFind Us on Social Media  ⬇️IG | @Eat.Train.ProsperIG | @bryanboorsteinIG | @aaron_strakerYT | EAT TRAIN PROSPER PODCAST

What happens when a lifelong emergency physician steps back from clinical practice and dedicates himself to helping other doctors navigate the impossible job of medicine?  In Part 1 of a two-part episode, Dr. Rob Orman joins Dr. Andrea Austin to share his remarkable path, from documenting mass casualty events to becoming a technical advisor for the hit HBO series The Pit, and ultimately building a coaching practice that helps physicians create meaningful change in their behavior and careers. Together they discuss the importance of awareness, the space between stimulus and response, cognitive empathy, and why art and storytelling may be powerful vehicles for transforming healthcare. Rob also opens up about his own career struggles and the deep fulfillment he finds in one-on-one behavioral coaching. They discussed: How documenting mass casualty events led to advising on The Pit The career shift from full-time clinician and educator to physician coach Why “not everyone thinks like you do”, and the power of cognitive empathy Building awareness and creating the pause between stimulus and response Behavioral coaching for physicians on performance plans or struggling with reactivity The role of storytelling and art in driving healthcare change Lessons from burnout, skill decay, and career transitions

In today's episode of The Recovered Dad Podcast, we explore the power of the pause, the brief moment between a trigger and your reaction, and how it can transform your recovery, your fatherhood, and your relationships. We share a real life story of almost losing a Google account to a sophisticated scam, and how recovery practices helped us step back, process emotions, and respond wisely instead of reacting from fear. This conversation dives into emotional awareness, managing triggers, and using recovery tools to break patterns that lead to reaching for porn. We discuss how the same skills that protect our digital life also strengthen our capacity as fathers, husbands, and men. Top Show Highlights: [00:00] Welcome back and introduction to today's focus on the pause between stimulus and response. [01:30] Story of a scam call and attempted Google account hack, demonstrating the power of emotional pause. [06:00] Recognizing the story your mind tells when emotions are high and how to separate perception from reality. [09:00] How the old habit of reaching for porn as a coping mechanism is similar to reacting without pause. [12:00] Learning to build the recovery "muscle" to sit with emotional discomfort without reacting. [15:00] Applying the pause in real life from emotional flare ups with teenagers to stressful business moments. [17:30] The pause allows us to choose healthy actions like walks, rest, connection, or intentional response instead of escape. [19:00] How these practices improve fatherhood and relationships with children and spouses. [21:00] Recovery as a lifestyle and the cascading effects of emotional awareness across every area of life. [23:00] Encouragement to observe your triggers, pause, and respond with clarity instead of automatic reaction.

In this episode of ⁠The Tarot Diagnosis⁠, I explore a question that has been lingering in my mind for months: What do the pillars in tarot actually symbolize on a deeper psychological level?Using Viktor Frankl's famous quote - “Between stimulus and response there is a space…,” I reflect on how the pillars in cards like the High Priestess, Justice, the Hierophant, and even the Moon might represent more than just duality or balance. I explore the possibility that these pillars symbolize psychological thresholds or liminal spaces where uncertainty, intuition, morality, projection, fear, and meaning live.I dive into the symbolism of the flowing/airy tapestry behind the High Priestess and contrast it with the heavy, obscuring curtain behind Justice, exploring how these archetypes reflect the tension between flexibility and rigidity. Through a Jungian, somatic, and trauma-informed lens, I discuss how the body often senses something before the mind can, and before the brain can organize it into language, as well as how our desire for certainty can sometimes become a defense mechanism against our discomfort with ambiguity.From there, I turn toward the Hierophant and explore the psychological impact of inherited systems rooted in religion, morality, culture, authority, and collective meaning-making. I reflect on what happens when external structures override internal knowing, and why the space between the pillars matters so much when it comes to identity, autonomy, and self-trust.I also explain why I believe the Moon belongs in this conversation, despite its “pillars” technically being towers. For me, The Moon represents what happens behind the pillars: the unconscious terrain we enter when certainty becomes hazy and we are forced to navigate ambiguity without reassurance.Toward the end of the episode, I create a brand new three card tarot spread inspired by Frankl's quote.Pulling the Magician, Six of Pentacles, and Three of Wands, I explore themes of hyper-independence, receiving support, and what becomes possible when we stop trying to survive entirely on our own.This episode is part tarot symbolism analysis, part Jungian and therapeutic exploration, and part philosophical reflection on what exists in the space between instinct and action.Want more of this type of tarot experience?Join us at the Summer Solstice Summit - a three day, virtual tarot conference June 26-28.

The phone calls could be harsh. Daniel Freedman talked to a lot of shop owners. They told him anthologies didn't sell. He explained that Stimulus was not an anthology; it was a short story collection. They continued to express cynicism. He went ahead and assembled an astonishing array of stories, galloping through numerous tones and showcasing an awesome stable of collaborators. Stimulus flaunts the heights that this medium can soar, and obliterates house style tastes. It's on those LCS shelves now. Here's your chance to prove the glass-half-empty folks that audiences crave structures free from corporate designs. The comics in Stimulus should have your mouth watering. They're science fiction and fantasy slanted idea outburts illustrated by - hold your breath - Robert Sammelin (Kali), Tomm Coker (Black Monday Murders), Filya Bratukhin(Nature's Labyrinth), Amilcar Pina (Galactic), Dilraj Mann (Dalstron Monsterzz), Lorenzo Nuti (Dragonero/Conan), Arianna Farricella (College Apocalypse), Gavin Dias (PENTHOUSE Comics), Debbie Tsoi (Split Fiction), Stefano Realdini (Captain Gaia), Dan Morison (HELL-BENT), and Henrik Sahlstrom (Mirror's Edge: Exordium). This week, we had a blast chatting with Daniel Freedman about Stimulus. The short story collection spans more than ten years of his life, and each tale explores Freedman working himself out as well as the world he finds himself trapped in. We discuss the autobiographic nature of all storytelling, the power of a short story collection, and why comics allow him to create where other mediums do not. And before all that, our kid on the beat cub reporter, Brad, regales Lisa with his journey to the Lower East Side and the Jack Kirby Way street-naming ceremony on May 11th. He discusses what and who he saw on Essex Street and even offers audio recordings of Jack Kirby Way presenters Roy Schwartz, NYC Council Member Christopher Marte, Tom Brevoort, Paul Levitz, and Jim Steranko.

Host Erin Kerry Erin sits down with Shanna Pearson, founder of the world's largest ADHD coaching company, to unpack the hidden reality of ADHD in women—especially those who have gone undiagnosed for decades. They explore how ADHD often presents differently in women, why it's frequently misdiagnosed as anxiety or depression, and how hormonal changes in perimenopause can intensify symptoms due to shifts in dopamine and estrogen levels. You'll learn how mental restlessness, overthinking, and emotional dysregulation are connected to brain chemistry—not personal failure—and why managing ADHD requires more than just willpower or hormone support. This conversation also dives into practical tools for managing overwhelm, improving focus, working with your natural rhythms, and creating systems that actually work for the ADHD brain. If you've ever felt scattered, overstimulated, or stuck in cycles of overthinking, this episode will help you understand what's really going on—and what to do next.

The topic of matchmaking agencies, now often calling themselves "matchmakers," Michael is critical of their approach. He highlights that most matchmakers are women who prioritize money as the main attribute when pairing men and women, which leads to transactional relationships, undermining genuine desire. He insists that leading with money makes it impossible to generate authentic attraction. This transactional nature blurs the lines between matchmaking and escort services, with some escorts reportedly using matchmakers as a softer version of prostitution.   00:00 - Navigating Modern Dating Challenges and "Shielding" from Stimulus 03:21 - The Reality of Modern Matchmaking and the Failure of Financial Leading 07:44 - The "Male Upgrade Struggle" vs. the "Female Glow Up" 11:47 - The Limitation of Dating Advice from Different Lived Experiences 14:55 - The Universal Male Struggle and Global Community Diversity 17:26 - Insights from Club Promotion: Social Proof and Pre-Selection 20:08 - Data vs. Perspective: Why You Shouldn't Ask Women for Dating Advice 21:42 - Proven Studies on Attraction: The Cheerleader Effect and Female Approval 24:45 - Building Social Circles and the Importance of High-Status Networking 38:12 - High-Value Lifestyles: Impact of Personal Branding and Aesthetics 52:30 - Overcoming Limiting Beliefs and the Psychology of Success 01:05:15 - Strategic Networking: How to Enter Elite Social Circles 01:22:40 - The Long-Term Impact of Self-Improvement and Community Support 01:30:31 - Final Thoughts and Episode Wrap-Up ————————————————————

Your brain is aging faster than it should, and most of the decline is self-inflicted. Neuroscientist Dr. Tommy Wood reveals the exact mechanisms driving cognitive decay, and the biohacking strategies backed by hard science that can stop it, reverse it, and future-proof your brain at any age. -Watch this episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Tommy Wood, one of the most credentialed minds working at the intersection of brain optimization, human performance, and longevity. Dr. Wood holds a medical degree from the University of Oxford, a PhD in physiology and neuroscience from the University of Oslo, and serves as Associate Professor of Pediatrics and Neuroscience at the University of Washington School of Medicine. He has published over 100 scientific papers, consulted with Olympians and world champions across more than a dozen sports, and worked directly with Formula 1 drivers to sustain elite focus and reaction time at 200 miles per hour. His forthcoming book, The Stimulated Mind: Future-Proof Your Brain from Dementia and Stay Sharp at Any Age, is the culmination of decades of research and real-world application. Together, Dave and Dr. Wood dismantle the myth that cognitive decline is inevitable, exposing how societal expectations become self-fulfilling prophecies and how the tools of biohacking, including sleep optimization, neuroplasticity training, nootropics, supplements, and strategic exercise, can dramatically shift your brain's long-term trajectory. They dig into the 3S Model of brain health (Stimulus, Supply, Support), the Yerkes-Dodson arousal curve and what it means for focus and flow states, and the surprising truth about AI, boredom, and what actually happens to your brain when you let ChatGPT do your thinking for you. This episode is essential listening for anyone serious about anti-aging, brain optimization, functional medicine, metabolism, human performance, and getting smarter without working harder. You'll Learn: Why cognitive decline is largely a self-fulfilling prophecy driven by expectation, not biology How the 3S Model (Stimulus, Supply, Support) determines your brain's long-term health and resilience What Formula 1 drivers teach us about arousal, flow states, and peak cognitive performance Why high-intensity interval training produces dramatically greater neuroplasticity benefits than Zone 2 cardio alone How creatine, nicotine, nootropics, and other supplements actually affect the aging brain The real data on alcohol, dementia risk, and what "occasional drinking" actually means scientifically How to use AI tools like ChatGPT in a way that builds brain function instead of destroying it Why boredom is a neurological necessity and how chronic low-level stimulation is quietly eroding your cognition What mitochondria and lactate signaling have to do with BDNF and long-term memory How resistance training, coordinative movement, and blood flow restriction each deliver separate and distinct cognitive benefits Thank you to our sponsors! - KILLSwitch | If you're ready for the best sleep of your life, order now at https://www.switchsupplements.com/and use code DAVE for 20% off - Neuronic | Go to www.neuronic.online Code DAVE for $100 off - Danger Coffee | Grab yours at DangerCoffee.comand use code DAVEPOD at checkout for 15% off. - Suppgrade Labs | Grab your DAKE and Minerals 101 duo at shopsuppgradelabs.com and use code DAVEPOD for 15% off today Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

Tamny critiques the federal government's "command economy" response, specifically the trillions of dollars in stimulus and the Payroll Protection Program. He argues that consumption does not drive growth — investment does — and that by "hoovering up" capital from those most capable of investing and redistributing it to consumers, the government delayed natural economic recovery. The PPP propped up "the past" and prevented the necessary "creative destruction" that allows a dynamic economy to evolve. Tamny ultimately advocates for freedom as the only sustainable answer to future crises, noting that private enterprise — not government mandates — produced the vaccines in record time.
