Tim Fitzgerald, of GoPowercat, joined The Drive to discuss the Wildcats chances in the game this weekend against Kansas.

The effects of volatile international markets are currently being felt in the bank accounts of UK dairy farmers. Milk prices paid by processors started tumbling in the autumn and there've been further drops this month. Dairy Analyst Chris Walkland discusses the impact of President Trump's trade policy on milk production in the US, which has coincided with a boom in UK and European milk output...leading to a bust. We also consider whether further US trade tariffs as leverage over Greenland could further destabilise dairy trade.We meet a Welsh farmer adding Sunflowers to the cattle feed crops grown on his farm, to cut his feed bill in volatile times. The European Parliament has voted to refer a deal with the South American trade bloc Mercosur to the European Court of Justice, in a move which could see a two year delay in the agreement coming into operation, or even derail it altogether. The European Commission signed the deal with Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay on Saturday. But yesterday MEPs decided its legality needs to be tested. If a water company pollutes rivers or releases sewage illegally, it can be taken to court and fined. The government has just announced that it's reinvesting £29 million pounds from these fines into more than 100 projects to improve 450km of rivers, restore 650 acres of natural habitats and plant 100,000 new trees. The money collected from precious water company fines between April 2022 and 23 was put into a Water Restoration Fund and it's already being spent on local projects. We visit one, on the River Witham in Lincolnshire.Presenter: Caz Graham Producer: Sarah Swadling

Los niños superhéroes son casi tan antiguos como el género. Sin embargo, así como sus contrapartidas adolescentes un poco más creciditas sí parecen seguir teniendo predicamento a lo largo de las décadas, raro es el héroe infantil que llega a cosechar cierto éxito. Para charlar de los cómos y los porqués de todo esto así como para repasar algunos casos selectos, nos juntamos un grupo de señores talluditos cuya infancia queda ya muy atrás, que lucha por mantener el alma joven ya que lo demás es caso perdido. La noche es caliente como el infierno. Todo se te pega. Una asquerosa habitación de un asqueroso barrio de una asquerosa ciudad.

Harmful fats can be incredibly damaging to your health! Find out about the most dangerous fat to remove from your diet immediately and which healthy fats to replace it with. Ditch the unhealthy fats today! 0:00 Introduction: The worst fats for health0:19 Unhealthy fats explained0:53 Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats2:02 What are hydrogenated fats?3:11 Saturated fat3:50 Side effects of unhealthy fats 8:57 The most dangerous fat11:48 The benefits of healthy fatWhat are the unhealthiest types of fats? Let's take a look. Saturated fats are very stable and don't react much to oxygen because they don't have double bonds.Fats with double bonds are more unstable and react more readily with oxygen, resulting in increased oxidation. Monounsaturated fats have one double bond, while polyunsaturated fats have many double bonds. More double bonds mean more oxidation. Avocado and olive oil are monounsaturated fats, so they're moderately stable. Polyunsaturated fats, such as corn oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, soy oil, canola oil, and cottonseed oil, contain many double bonds, so they're unstable and prone to significant oxidation. Hydrogenated oils are unsaturated fats that have been chemically turned into saturated fats. Saturated fats such as lard, tallow, and butter are solid at room temperature and are very stable. Although they are unsaturated fats, fish oil and cod liver oil have potent anti-inflammatory benefits and omega-3s, but can sometimes be rancid due to their instability. Be careful where you source them!Heat and light create toxic byproducts in unsaturated fats called aldehydes. These toxic compounds destroy your DNA, lodge in your cell membranes, and damage the insulin receptors on the surface of your cells. They can also make your cells stiff and fragile. For years, saturated fats have been demonized, and unsaturated fats have been recommended! This has also occurred with other foods, such as red meat and grains. Check out this comprehensive list, which ranges from the most harmful fats to the healthiest. Number 1 is the most dangerous! 1. Partially hydrogenated fat2. Hydrogenated fat3.

Post Malone BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Post Malone has spent the last several days doing what has quietly become his brand in late 2025: turning high‑risk live spectacle, global travel, and relentless meme moments into long‑term biography fuel. In India, fan video widely shared by TMZ and covered by outlets like Taste of Country and Stereogum shows Post coming down a set of stairs barefoot during Sunflower, slipping, and dramatically tumbling down the remaining steps, red Solo cup in hand. Security swarmed, but he popped back up, hugged fans, accepted flowers, and appeared unharmed, reinforcing the now familiar narrative of Posty as the clumsy but indestructible stadium act who has fallen through a trap door in St. Louis, toppled off a catwalk in Arizona, and somehow keeps bouncing back and going bigger.That India appearance is part of a broader international push that continues this week as he heads to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, where Music Business Worldwide reports he is one of the marquee superstars booked for MDLBEASTs massive Soundstorm 2025 festival alongside Calvin Harris, Cardi B, and other global names, a booking that cements his status as a top‑tier festival closer in one of the fastest‑growing music markets on the planet. Industry executives there openly describe Soundstorm as a City of Beats built for global superstars, which means his inclusion is not a casual check; it is another data point that Post Malone is now a structural part of the global festival economy, not a passing trend.On the business and branding side, Universal Music Group announced new UMusic Shop flagships in New York and London featuring exclusive vinyl and merch tied to key roster acts including Post Malone, a reminder that his name now functions as an anchor for premium retail alongside artists like Billie Eilish and the Rolling Stones. Local Arizona coverage of a new Raising Canes in Buckeye continues to reference the chains high‑profile partnership with him, proof that even regional development stories treat Post as shorthand for pop‑culture cachet.Meanwhile, a cluster of blogs and clicky wellness sites are pushing alarmed headlines about his holiday‑season weight loss. Those pieces largely recycle fan concern and older speculation; there is no new on‑the‑record medical information from Post, his team, or major news organizations, so any suggestion of illness remains unconfirmed and should be treated as speculation rather than fact.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Join Annie Sargent and Elyse Rivin as they dive deep into the tragic and brilliant life of Vincent van Gogh. This episode isn't just about his iconic paintings—it's about the man behind the masterpieces. Elyse, with her deep knowledge of art history and her gift for storytelling, guides us through Van Gogh's tumultuous journey. From his early struggles in the Netherlands to his transformative years in France, we explore how his experiences shaped his art—and how his art, in turn, shaped the world. Listen to this episode ad-free Van Gogh's life was marked by failure, rejection, and mental health struggles. Elyse explains how these challenges fueled his creativity. As a young man, he tried—and failed—at careers as an art dealer, a preacher, and even a Bible translator. His family didn't know what to do with him, and his father even considered sending him to a mental hospital. But it was his brother, Theo, who became his lifeline. Theo provided financial and emotional support, allowing Vincent to focus on painting. This support gave him the freedom to experiment, leading to the bold, vibrant style we associate with him today. Paris was a turning point for Van Gogh. Elyse paints a vivid picture of his time there, living in Montmartre, meeting artists like Toulouse-Lautrec and Pissarro, and discovering new techniques. He hated the city at first, but over time, he began to embrace its energy. His move to Arles was another pivotal moment. He dreamed of creating an artists' colony there, but his relationship with Gauguin ended in disaster. Despite the chaos, this period was incredibly productive. He painted masterpieces like Starry Night Over the Rhône and Sunflowers. After his breakdown in Arles, Van Gogh was committed to an asylum in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. Elyse's account of this time is heartbreaking yet inspiring. He continued to paint, creating some of his most famous works, including Wheat Fields and more versions of Starry Night. His final days in Auvers-sur-Oise were marked by relentless painting and a tragic end. This episode isn't just about art—it's about humanity, perseverance, and the cost of genius.

In this episode, I dive deep into protein supplements—how to avoid crappy products loaded with questionable ingredients, and how to read labels like a pro. We break down how whey protein is made, why it’s the most potent and bioavailable protein powder, and why it’s far superior to plant-based sources. I also tackle the myths around protein timing and protein bars: you don’t need protein on the go—the goal is adequate protein intake averaged over time, about one gram per pound of ideal body weight. Protein is the foundation for muscle, organ health, and overall performance, while carbs and fats serve mainly as energy. I compare B.rad Whey Protein Isolate + Creatine Superfuel to a competitor product loaded with processed additives, artificial sweeteners, and flavor chemicals. I explain the difference between whey protein concentrate, isolate, milk protein isolate, casein, and egg white protein—covering digestibility, nutrient density, and potential digestive issues. We also discuss why a few grams of natural sugar in protein is better than chemically intense sweeteners for performance and recovery. Finally, I share my approach to sourcing animal-based proteins—pasture-raised eggs, ground beef, and affordable grass-fed steaks—and why combining these with a clean, high-quality whey protein powder gives you the building blocks for health, muscle, and longevity. If you want to navigate the supplement world safely, skip the junk, and prioritize truly effective protein, this episode is for you. TIMESTAMPS: We are looking at the good and bad of supplementation. [01:10] We don't need protein on the go. We need to average an adequate amount of protein intake over the long term. [02:18] Over the years, we have learned that one gram of protein per pound of ideal body weight is recommended. [05:20] When you think about the protein bars that are on the market, realize that there is a large amount of processing involved in making them. [09:50] Learn to read labels and know what they mean. [15:22] Sunflower lecithin is a natural fat used as an emulsifier in protein powders. [16:25] Compare other protein powders that have been processed. [17:18] What is whey and how is it made? [19:34] The term milk protein isolate lets you know you can consume it even if you have lactose problems. It depends on how lactose intolerant you are. [33:04] The egg yolk is one of the most nutritious sources of energy on the planet. [35:03] There is no reason to consume a product loaded with chemicals when you can get some product using natural ingredients. [39:35] A small amount of sugar is burned in the cell for energy during your active life. [40:36] Commodity dark chocolate that you find in popular brands doesn't compare in quality with the high-quality artisan bean to bar chocolate. [46:40] Wine is the only product in the United States that is not required to put all the added ingredients on the label. [49:11] If you're gonna put something into your body that's in supplemental concentrated form, make sure you navigate to the cleanest, purest product.

Lance Leipold, coach of the Kansas Jayhawks, joined The Drive to discuss his team chances of breaking the long losing streak to Kansas State this weekend.

Chris Klieman, coach for the Kansas State Wildcats, joined The Drive to preview the Wildcats in the upcoming rivalry game against Kansas.

The Chiefs won in a way NFL teams aren't supposed to win. They dominated the Las Vegas Raiders in a 31-0 victory and held the visitors to three first downs and fewer than 100 total yards. On SportsBeat KC, the sports podcast of The Star and KCUR, beat writer Pete Sweeney and columnist Sam McDowell explain how it happened and what it means for the Chiefs, who return to action on “Monday Night Football” against the Washington Commanders. Also, the Chiefs welcomed back receiver Rashee Rice — and he delivered a big game — but are still missing left tackle Josh Simmons, and now defensive tackle Omarr Norman-Lott could be lost for the season. The Sunflower Showdown arrives this weekend when Kansas State travels to Kansas. The Wildcats own a 16-game winning streak in the series, but beat writers Kellis Robinett and Shreyas Laddha discuss why both teams are feeling pressure in this game. Check out this week's podcast.
