Why is cows' milk, which few nonwhite people can digest, promoted as a science-backed dietary necessity in countries where the majority of the population is lactose-intolerant? Why are gigantic new dairy farms permitted to deplete the sparse water resources of desert ecosystems? Why do thousands of U.S. dairy farmers every year give up after struggling to recoup production costs against plummeting wholesale prices? Exploring these questions and many more, Spoiled: The Myth of Milk as Superfood (Columbia UP, 2023) is an unflinching and meticulous critique of the glorification of fluid milk and its alleged universal benefits. Anne Mendelson's groundbreaking book chronicles the story of milk from the Stone Age peoples who first domesticated cows, goats, and sheep to today's troubled dairy industry. Spoiled shows that drinking fresh milk was rare until Western scientific experts who were unaware of genetic differences in the ability to digest lactose deemed it superior to traditional fermented dairy products. Their flawed beliefs fueled the growth of a massive and environmentally devastating industry that turned milk into a cheap, ubiquitous commodity. Mendelson's wide-ranging account also examines the consequences of homogenization and refrigeration technologies, the toll that modern farming takes on dairy cows, and changing perceptions of raw milk since the advent of pasteurization. Unraveling the myths and misconceptions that prop up the dairy industry, Spoiled calls for more sustainable, healthful futures in our relationship with milk and the animals that provide it. Melek Firat Altay is a neuroscientist, biologist and musician. Her research focuses on deciphering the molecular and cellular mechanisms of neurodegenerative and neurodevelopmental disorders.

This episode was inspired by an interview with Dr. Margaret Barker on the History Valley Podcast discussing her 2023 book The Great Lady. We begin with Opinion Scholarship on the very earliest known religious images from the Stone Age, which depict a Great Goddess figure and walk through how that image was preserved in later mythology. We then bring Dr. Barker's work to bear on the Biblical figure of Ashera, how her memory was obscured over the development of Judaic monotheism and how the truth of her origin was finally revealed in the Dead Sea Scrolls.  Enjoy ;)

Our guest this week is a surfer and former pro skater turned creative marketing executive and brand builder. During his impressive 17 year skate career, earning five magazine covers. He was already mapping out his future through roles in Team Management and Skate Marketing.In 1995, he played an huge role in the early days of Nike Skateboarding, helping assemble the team, shape go-to-market strategies, and contribute to the launch of Nike's first skate shoe.  He also spent more than 30 years with Volcom, serving as SVP of Global Skate Marketing, where he oversaw everything skate-related. From managing global rosters and marketing budgets to producing skate tours, feature films, and building iconic franchise events and series like Damn Am, Wild in the Parks, and Mammoth Meadows. He also helped create and launch Volcom's skate apparel segmentation, Stone Age.As a Creative Marketing Consultant, he has directed and produced a wide range of projects and campaigns with some of the biggest names in action sports and youth culture, including Warped Tour, Thrasher, TransWorld, Anti Hero, Baker, Toy Machine, and Red Bull.  We are pumped to sit down with Mr. Remy Stratton. 

In this episode, the hosts dive into a lively discussion about the album 'Era Vulgaris' by Queens of the Stone Age. They explore the album's unique sound, its influences, and its place in the band's discography. The conversation is filled with humor, personal anecdotes, and a deep appreciation for the music.

A conversation with meditation teacher Jay Michaelson about what to do when you're constantly tired, fried, and running on empty. If you feel exhausted seemingly all the time—whether it's a low hum or something louder—you're not alone. In this conversation, Jay Michaelson, our Teacher of the Month for February, talks with executive producer DJ Cashmere about the relentless fatigue so many of us are experiencing, and what actually helps. We talk about: Why your first move should be self-compassion (not self-blame)—especially in a culture obsessed with sleep optimization The important oscillation between being with difficulty versus reaching for an antidote HALT: the acronym that can save you (Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired) How to investigate exhaustion without trying to fix it right away Practical antidotes: screen hygiene, micro-naps, and yes, brain machines How our Stone Age brains are being hijacked by tech companies Why nap shame is "pure garbage" and you should kiss it goodbye The social conditions causing exhaustion that are beyond individual control The through-line: this isn't about becoming superhuman or gritting your teeth through exhaustion. It's about relating to it differently, being kinder to yourself, and using whatever tools actually work—even if they feel unconventional.

This episode offers a critical examination of the question of “the most ancient forms of magic” by interrogating the category of magic itself as a historically contingent and analytically unstable concept. Rather than assuming magic as a universal or transhistorical phenomenon, the discussion situates ritual practices within their specific social, cosmological, and epistemic contexts, beginning with evidence for symbolic and ritual behaviour in deep prehistory and moving through animistic and shamanic worldviews, Neolithic monumental ritual landscapes, and the first literate traditions of Mesopotamia, Egypt, South Asia, and early China.Engaging with archaeological data, comparative anthropology, and the history of religions, the episode explores how practices often labelled as magical functioned as socially embedded techniques for negotiating uncertainty, misfortune, and relational disruption in worlds understood to be animate and morally responsive. Particular attention is given to the role of materiality, speech, and ritual expertise, as well as to the gradual processes of textualisation and institutionalisation that reshape ritual efficacy in early complex societies. Rather than identifying a single origin or essence of magic, the episode argues for understanding ancient magic as a set of historically situated practices through which humans acted effectively within precarious and relational cosmologies.CONNECT & SUPPORT

I was at the Pro-Billionaire march, unironically. Here's why, what happened there, and how I think it went. Me on the far left. From WSJ. I. Why? There's a genre of horror movie where a normal protagonist is going through a normal day in a normal life. Ten minutes into the movie his friends bring out a struggling kidnap victim to slaughter, and they look at him like this is just a normal Tuesday and he slowly realizes that either he's surrounded by complete psychopaths or the world is absolutely fucked up in some way he never imagined, and somehow this has been lost on him up until this point in his life. This kinda thing happens to me more than I'd like to admit, but normally it's in a metaphorical way. Normally. Sometimes I'm at the goth club, fighting back The Depression (and winning tyvm), and I'll be involved in a conversation that veers into: Goth 1: Man, life's tough right now. Goth 2: I can't believe we're still letting billionaires live. Goth 3: Seriously, how corrupt is our government that we haven't rounded them all up yet? Goth 1: Maybe we should kill them ourselves. Goth 2 [...] The original text contained 2 footnotes which were omitted from this narration. --- First published: February 9th, 2026 Source: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/BW89BudtySvpzpYni/stone-age-billionaire-can-t-words-good --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO. ---Images from the article:

Tim and Joel are back for 2026 with a conversation about authority, hierarchy, and authentic relationship with Jesus.It starts with parenting, authoritarian (high control, low love) versus authoritative (high control, high love). But the real question: how does the parent-child relationship mirror our relationship with God? For those with great fathers, God being the perfect Father is comforting. For those with absent or abusive fathers, it's healing.This opens a bigger conversation about hierarchy and power. Postmodernism wants to deconstruct all hierarchies as inherently corrupt. But because there's an inherent power imbalance between Creator and creation, they argue there must be such a thing as good hierarchy. The difference isn't whether power exists, but how it's used, to serve others or serve yourself.Tim shares about joining the Crossformed Kids podcast, leading into intergenerational ministry and reciprocity. A five-year-old is no more or less saved than a senior minister. Equal in God's kingdom, even while maintaining appropriate roles. They discuss Tom Holland's "Dominion", how even secular progressive concern for the vulnerable is borrowed from Christian moral tradition. Marx's vision could only emerge from a Christian worldview.The conversation turns to math with Joel reading John Lennox and his son to discover how mathematics reveals God's beauty and order. The elegance of math points to a rational universe created by a rational God.Finally, parasocial relationships, Cambridge Dictionary's 2025 Word of the Year. People are forming one-way relationships with celebrities and AI chatbots. Tim contrasts this with his word for the year: abiding. "I don't want a parasocial relationship with Jesus. I want to genuinely abide in Him."The takeaway? God has the right to tell us how to live. And because He's the perfect Father, that's not oppressive, it's beautiful and relational.https://online.hillsdale.edu/TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - Intro and welcome back for the new year09:33 - Parenting, hierarchies, and power and our true Father25:32 - Tim's hosting another podcast, the reciprocity of intergenerational relationships and ceding power to God's good hierarchy36:20 - God is a God who cares for vulnerable people43:20 - Science and maths explaining God's created world54:52 - Parasocial versus abiding1:13:06 - Tim's Takeaway: authentic relationship with JesusDISCUSSED ON THIS EPISODE:Nexus: A Brief History of Information Networks from the Stone Age to AI, by Yuval Noah HarariRivers of London series, by Ben AaronovitchUnruly: The Ridiculous History of England's Kings and Queens, by David MitchellCrossformed Kidmin PodcastThe Child in God's Church, by Tim BeilharzDominion: The Making of the Western Mind, by Tom HollandAnglicare AustraliaThe Air We Breathe: How We All Came to Believe in Freedom, Kindness, Progress, and Equality, by Glen ScrivenerHillsdale College online coursesCan Science Explain Everything?, by John LennoxWhy This Oxford Mathematician is Confident God Exists | John LennoxThe 2025 Cambridge Dictionary Word of the YearDeath of Rob Hirst

Send in your music story!A blizzard outside, a firestorm in music. We start with the easy stuff—laughs, life updates, and a nostalgia trip through 2000s anthems—then dive straight into the friction points shaping live music right now: dynamic ticket pricing, runaway fees, and why mid-level artists can't afford to tour while mega-acts sell out arenas. It's Grammys week, but the real story sits underneath the trophies.We unpack a headline-heavy slate: tours from Queens of the Stone Age and Zayn Malik, a tragic breaking loss in the community, and a ceremony that crowned Bad Bunny and Kendrick Lamar while Post Malone led a surging Ozzie tribute with Slash, Chad Smith, Duff McKagan, and Andrew Watt. On the red carpet, the tone trended surprisingly classic—Lady Gaga and Sabrina Carpenter kept it timeless—punctuated by a single shock piece that lit up the timeline. Performances got the microscope from us too: what landed, what missed, and how televised moments dovetail with marketing cycles like a Super Bowl halftime.Then we tackle the question that won't die: should artists speak on politics? Jelly Roll's refusal to weigh in sparked backlash, and we push back on the expectation that entertainers must campaign. Autonomy matters—for artists and for fans. We talk about separating art from the artist, when lines get crossed, and how to “vote” with your wallet without letting parasocial noise make your choices. It's a candid, sometimes uncomfortable, always honest conversation about taste, ethics, and the business machine behind the music we love.To end on a note that's ours, we host the HB Guest Grammys. Fan Favorite goes to TX2 for the interview that lit our early charts. Best Album shout goes to Keep Flying's Time and Tide, with love to Snacktime for pure fun. “Realest” guest turns into a heartfelt debate—Forest Day, Scott Blasey, and Ralph Sutton each get flowers—because the best part of this show is still the people behind the songs.If this hit your feed just right, follow, subscribe, and drop a review.

We're headed back to the Stone Age for a look at the (b)romance of Brian Levant's feature film adaptation of The Flintstones, starring John Goodman, Rick Moranis, and a whole lot of other comedy stars. Join in as we discuss our favorite background gags, the 1994 box office, the movie's infamously large writing team, and our complete befuddlement at Kyle MacLachlan's evil plan. Plus: How was John Goodman pressured into taking the role of Fred? Why didn't Barney know everyone else would be at the restaurant? Why does the theme song play three separate times? And, most importantly, what about this was supposed to appeal to children? Make sure to rate, review, and subscribe!

What is the true purpose of human progress and advancing civilization. Why do modern societies grow more complex while some tribes deliberately remain hunter gatherers, untouched by technology and modern life. In this episode, we explore uncontacted tribes, the ethics of progress, survival of the fittest, and whether humanity is moving toward a higher spiritual purpose or merging with machines.We examine ancient tribes living in Stone Age conditions, compare their way of life to modern civilization, and ask the hard philosophical questions. Is progress inherently good or bad. Are we meant to dominate the planet as the apex species. Should isolated tribes be preserved or integrated. Where is technology ultimately taking us. Toward freedom, control, or something resembling the Matrix.Drawing from philosophy, history, and Judeo Christian values rooted in the Old Testament, this episode breaks down how progress functions as a tool rather than a moral absolute. From social media and the internet to law, complexity, and large scale civilization, we analyze why progress may be a necessary condition for humanity to fulfill its deeper purpose.This is a philosophical and ethical exploration of modernity, technology, tribal life, spirituality, God, and the future of humanity.Subscribe for more long form thought experiments on philosophy, faith, ethics, culture, and the direction of civilization.

In this episode Chris interviews the gnosis-bringer himself--Neal Sendlak--aka Gnostic Informant. You know him from his riveting documentaries on YouTube where he tracks myths and religious ideas across cultures and eons and from his interviews with critical scholars, but this time we dive deeply into his origin story and into the origin of religion itself! We discuss the ancient Greek "mysteries," psychedelic experience, Neolithic cave paintings and the half-man, half-beast imagery that spans from the Stone Age right up through the classical religions of the Bronze Age. Strap in ladies and gents; this one was real journey!

Today's guest is just a badass. I'm so excited about this one that I don't even want to do too long of an intro. I just want her to tell her story. Welcome Wendy Rae Fowler to the show. She's got such an interesting story. She plays bass for Humanist in addition to her own music. But her first love was dance. She talks about all her creative endeavors from dance, to acting, to bass, and more.She collaborated with Queens of the Stone Age, Earthlings?, Mark Lanegan (that collaboration included a wedding), and more. She reveals the one project she'll never get over, who Katie Cruel is, and how she wrote an ambient film soundtrack. She tells the story of how she started playing with Rob Marshall and Humanist and how the music transformed once it was played live.  Honestly, I could listen to her for hours. She's wonderful and I want to take a second and thank Rob Marshall of Humanist for the introduction. Go to wendyraefowlerofficial.com for more information. She's active on Instagram @wendyraefowler. Her music is also available on Bandcamp. Keep an eye open for some new releases. Follow us @PerformanceAnx. Grab merch at performanceanx.threadless.com.

Its striking artworks have fired the imagination, and its extensive ruins, copious burials, and rich grave goods have filled in massive gaps in the story of the origins of civilization, illustrating how the invention of agriculture and the “Neolithic Revolution” made cities and urban life possible. Yet it also remains a stubborn mystery: why are the houses all so identical? Why are there no public buildings or gathering places, or even streets? And why did the town spring up in the middle of a muddy and malarial plain?

"Automate or Fall Behind" sounds dramatic, but it points to a quieter question leaders are facing in 2026: are our systems designed for how we want to lead? In this episode of Reflect Forward, I sit down with Nadav Wilf, founder and CEO of Align Coach, to explore how AI and automation can either amplify leadership clarity or reveal where teams still rely on outdated structures. This is not a conversation about chasing the latest tools. It is about building a strategic AI vision, addressing resistance to change, and creating the training cadence required for new ways of working to actually stick. Most leaders are already experimenting with AI in some form. They have a ChatGPT subscription. They use AI to draft emails or summarize notes. Nadav draws a critical distinction between manual AI and automated AI. Manual AI creates speed in isolated moments. Automated AI creates leverage across the organization. Without that shift, companies remain stuck in fragmented experimentation rather than building scalable systems. A central theme of this conversation is that AI adoption fails more often due to leadership behavior than to technical complexity. Leaders underestimate the importance of vision, overestimate how quickly habits change, and stop training too soon. Nadav breaks down why consistency is the determining factor. When training stops, people revert to old workflows, and leaders walk away with false proof that AI does not work. I grounded the conversation with a real-world example from StoneAge. Instead of purchasing expensive accounts payable automation software, we built a custom GPT layered on top of our existing ERP system. In a matter of weeks, we automated manual work, accelerated internal learning, improved job satisfaction, and avoided a six-figure software spend. The win was not just technical. It was cultural. The team experienced firsthand how AI could remove low-value work and free them to focus on higher-impact responsibilities. The episode also explores the human dynamics that quietly shape change efforts. Nadav introduces the concept of elevators, resistors, and supporters. Elevators lean in and move change forward. Supporters follow the dominant energy. Resistors, often unintentionally, can stall progress by clinging to familiar systems. Leaders who fail to name these dynamics allow resistance to run the strategy by default. Throughout the conversation, one message becomes clear. You do not need to understand every detail of AI to lead effectively in this era. You need to take responsibility for the direction, cadence, and mindset your organization brings to it. AI is not a side project. It is an operating decision. Automate or Fall Behind is an invitation to reflect on what you have been carrying that technology can now handle, and to move forward with intention rather than urgency. Leaders who do this well will not just be more efficient. They will create calmer teams, better work, and organizations designed for how people actually want to lead and contribute in 2026.

Controlling wild goats is proving tricky in Scotland's border country. While herds can damage trees and outgrow their food supply, these fierce yet endearing creatures have a place in people's hearts, and they are believed to be a link to our Stone-Age ancestors. As different landowners carry out their own culls, there are fears of a devastating impact on the population. Richard Baynes finds out how it's hoped herds can be controlled, but kept healthy.Produced and presented by Richard Baynes.

Todd and Paul wrap up their big Czech Adventure with a visit to the Stone Age! Long ago, the southern Czech villages of Pavlov and Dolní Věstonice were home to mammoth hunters, and they left abundant evidence of their dwellings, prey, and even culture. Over the past century, Czech archaeologists have been excavating those sites, and Paul and Todd are going to get the whole scoop as they wander the countryside where these ancient hunters lived. What does this site mean for creationists?

Think of the Ice Age and tales of ferocious sabre-toothed tigers and giant megafauna likely spring to mind - but what do we know about prehistoric human culture 25,000 years ago and how people survived a perilous landscape of marauding Woolly Mammoths, bitterly cold temperatures and primitive Stone Age tools? Tristan Hughes is joined by Cody Cassidy to look at how early cultures adapted to the extremes of the Last Glacial Period. Looking at the rapidly changing landscape, the cause of the big freeze and prehistoric hunting methods - do you have what it takes to survive the Ice Age? MOREIce Age Britain: Finding the First Homo sapiensListen on AppleListen on SpotifyIce Age AmericaListen on AppleListen on SpotifyPresented by Tristan Hughes.

While humans were leaving the Stone Age and entering the Bronze, some Bristlecone pine trees grew from seeds to sprouts. They've been growing ever since. These 5,000-year-old pines are among the oldest organisms on Earth. Superlatives are also appropriate for the towering redwoods. Trees are amazing in many ways. They provide us with timber and cool us with shade, they sequester carbon and release oxygen, and are home to countless species. But they are also marvels of evolutionary adaptation. We consider the beauty and diversity of trees, and learn why their future is intertwined with ours. Guests: Kevin Dixon - Naturalist at The East Bay Regional Park District, Oakland, California Daniel Lewis - Environmental historian and senior curator for the History of Science and Technology at the Huntington Library, art museum and botanical gardens in Pasadena, California, professor of the natural sciences and the environment at Caltech, and author of “Twelve Trees: The Deep Roots of our Future” Featuring music by Dewey Dellay and Jun Miyake Originally aired January 25, 2025 Big Picture Science is part of the Airwave Media podcast network. Please contact advertising@airwavemedia.com to inquire about advertising on Big Picture Science.

LeMay's Post-War Legacy — James M. Scott — Following World War II, LeMay ascends to command the Strategic Air Command (SAC) and eventually assumes the position of Air Force Chief of Staff, though he struggles to navigate the complex political environment and institutional constraints characterizing Washingtonbureaucracy and civilian oversight. Scott documents that LeMay never publicly expressed remorse or moral regret regarding the firebombing campaign, consistently maintaining that the campaign was militarily necessary to prevent a catastrophically expensive ground invasion of the Japanese mainland requiring massive American casualty expenditures. Scott notes that LeMay's historical reputation suffers significantly in subsequent decades due to his controversial "bomb them back to the Stone Age" rhetoric regarding Vietnam policy and his catastrophically ill-conceived decision to accept the Vice Presidential nomination on George Wallace's segregationist ticket in 1968, thereby associating him with explicit racial segregation advocacy and political extremism. 1930

The sound of a choir performing in a cathedral is iconic for a reason. It's this beautiful human experience: being side-by-side with other people, feeling the sound vibrate through you, reverberating around the space.But how long has that been a part of our culture? And what role did sound play in the lives of people who lived during the Ice Age or the Stone Age? That's the focus of a growing field of archaeology called archaeoacoustics, where researchers use the scientific tools of today to investigate the role of sound and music in the past.To learn more, Host Flora Lichtman is joined by Margarita Díaz-Andreu, principal investigator of the Art Soundscapes project, and Rupert Till, head of the department of humanities at the University of Huddersfield in the UK.Guests: Dr. Margarita Díaz-Andreu is an ICREA professor at the University of Barcelona in Spain and principal investigator of the Art Soundscapes project. Dr. Rupert Till is a professor of music and head of the department humanities at the University of Huddersfield in the UK.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.
