In this week's episode, we break down the cultural messaging of “eat as little as possible”, “control your hunger”, “shrink your body” and the constant struggle to lose weight. In a society where it feels like GLP-1s are more of the norm than the exception, I'm afraid we have lost our way by equating thinness with health. I'll break down how restriction can cause binge eating behavior, increase food noise and preoccupation with food, and why feeding your body is actually your responsibility for health. This week's recipe is Sweet Potatoes with Honey and Feta. Schedule a visit today at www.bodymetrixhealth.com.

Send a textWhat really makes a shed sell itself? We dig into the details with Ervin Stutzman of Summit Portable Buildings and returning road-warrior-turned-sales-pro Joe McNally to uncover how craftsmanship and digital savvy combine to win modern buyers. From studs and flooring you can feel underfoot to configurators and CRMs that speed decisions, we share what's working now and how small manufacturers can outmaneuver bigger brands with clarity and care.We start with the build: quality 2x4s, double top plates, LP's SmartGuard advantages, and why bark on studs turns buyers off. Then we pivot to the first impression online. A decade after Craigslist listings, the path now runs through clean Google profiles, sharp photography, short-form video, and 3D designers. Some shoppers swipe a card for a 10x16 without a question, others want to dial in color, trim, and door placement. The trick is reading who's in front of you and using tools that adapt to both. We also tackle the “self-checkout” of shed sales: smart CRM follow-ups and light automation that keep the pipeline warm so your team can focus on high-value conversations.Ervin breaks down why tighter brand control—corporate lots, trained staff, consistent visuals—can outperform a loose dealer network, while Joe shares wins from selling a $45K spray-foamed unit to managing lean lots that still moved serious volume. We unpack diversification, too: playsets, hunting blinds, and select steel structures bring in fresh traffic and create natural cross-sells, so long as you curate inventory to avoid choice overload. Editing a stale shed—new colorways, added windows, a door move—can flip it from overlooked to sold.Looking ahead to 2026, we see a hybrid future where well-built products meet disciplined digital marketing. Keep the craftsmanship undeniable, make the online experience as welcoming as a landscaped lot, and educate buyers before they arrive. That's how smaller shops capture more market share and keep delivery trucks rolling. If this resonated, follow, subscribe, and share it with a friend in the trade—then tell us: what single change has moved your sales the most?For more information or to know more about the Shed Geek Podcast visit us at our website.Would you like to receive our weekly newsletter?

And now we have a Waymo in Arizona that identifies as a train...and decides to drive on the tracks...with an oncoming train approaching. The passenger, who actually has the ability to think cognitively, makes a run for it. A customer at a Camden, NJ bar made a run for it, with the bar's "conversation piece"... a walrus baculum...or plainly stated, a "penis bone". Wonder what kind of conversation that person will be having? My Insane FL Nephew, "Pancho Guero", is beyond elated that the new year begins with a stupid man from China who tried to bake a 7" sweet potato in his colon. A failed attempted removal by doctors included the use of a wine corkscrew.In this Weekend Episode...[A Piece of My Mind…] Yes, Those Big Touchscreens In Cars Are Dangerous & Buttons Are Coming Back!AI In 2026: Beware of Nefarious People Using It for All The Wrong ReasonsFortune Teller Predicts A Client Would Lose Something–Then Stole Their PhoneHow DRUNK Do You Have To Be...To Get Naked, Assault a Deputy While ‘Trying to Be a Mermaid'Passenger Jumps Out Of Self-Driving Vehicle After It Stops On Rail Track With Approaching TrainLesson of the Day: Don't Put a Live Leech in Your BladderBeloved Walrus Penis Stolen from New Jersey RestaurantSurgeons Gobsmacked When Man Shows Up With 7” Sweet Potato Stuck In His ButtWe've also got a couple of people who want to "ASK PANCHO" for some advice on how to deal with an 8-y/o boy who only wants to eat pizza...all the time, and a wife who wonders if she should tell her military husband that his friend was hitting on her a few weeks before he was to return from duty.

Could a bizarre medical emergency actually be real? Did NASA really intercept a chilling message from deep space? And why are people convinced rats are on crack in Houston?
It’s another round of Real News or Fake News on The Jubal Show, and this one pushes the limits of what sounds believable. From a headline that makes everyone uncomfortable, to a viral space story that had millions convinced the end might be near, and a city dealing with a very unexpected animal problem—each story is wilder than the last.

How much money would it take for you to eat a potato that's been… somewhere it shouldn't?” That's the outrageous question Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray wrestle with in this laugh-out-loud episode of The Ben and Skin Show. It all starts with a bizarre news story about a man in China who showed up at the ER with a sweet potato lodged in his body—and spirals into one of the funniest conversations you'll ever hear.
On the KMOJ Morning Show, Chantel Sings talks with Rose McGee, President and Founder of Sweet Potato Comfort Pie®, about the organization's Annual MLK Holiday Weekend of Service. Rose explains how this year's event includes a food and supplies drive for the PRISM Food Shelf and reflects a deeper focus on protecting constitutional rights and community freedom during challenging times. She shares the powerful origin story of Sweet Potato Comfort Pie, which began after the killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, and why sweet potato pie is considered a sacred symbol of care and connection in Black culture. The conversation highlights how service, storytelling, and shared meals can heal, unite, and strengthen communities while honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s legacy.
Sweet potatoes were among the American crops Christopher Columbus brought back to Europe—where they were thought to be an aphrodisiac. In China, this versatile root became a staple that fueled rapid population growth. Introduced to Japan to stave off famine, sweet potatoes later sustained the country's imperial expansion. Because this hardy plant can thrive in almost any soil, it has long been cultivated as a subsistence crop in Southeast Asia, Africa, and Oceania. In recent years, Western health experts have begun touting the humble sweet potato as a “superfood” with numerous nutritional benefits. Considering these events and many others, Staple to Superfood: A Global History of the Sweet Potato (Columbia UP, 2025) explores the sweet potato's rich history and remarkable global influence. Dr. Q. Edward Wang demonstrates how this resilient root has not only nourished communities but also defined their identities. Tracing its journeys through the intricate networks of global trade and cultural exchange, he shows how the sweet potato transformed agricultural practices, culinary traditions, and social structures worldwide. From the Americas to Europe to Asia and the Pacific, the spread of this crop illuminates the varied paths that global development has taken. Dr. Wang also contrasts the sweet potato with its botanically unrelated namesake, the white potato. Blending agricultural, cultural, and historical perspectives, Staple to Superfood offers a fresh look at the power of food to transform societies. It is a compelling exploration of how the sweet potato shaped the modern world and continues to influence global food systems today. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

One more really nice day to get all that outdoor shit taken care of before the colder temps return…along with some snow! In the news this mornings, Minnesota & Illinois are suing the feds, Barbie launches an autistic version, US Marshals are now trying to locate Timothy Busfield, there's some monkeys on the loose in St. Louis, and the FDA has upgraded a recall on cheese products. In sports, the Steelers got waxed by the Texans last night to wrap up Wild Card weekend, a look at this coming weekend's Divisional round, the Bucks take on the T-Wolves tonight, and the Badgers are playing Minnesota tonight. We talked about what's on TV today/tonight and what's new on New Release Tuesday. And Brian recapped the movie "Together". Elsewhere in sports, Brooks Koepka is officially back in the PGA, a wild video of a US Bobsled driver who escaped serious injury recently, and a young Eagles fan goes off after their loss to the 49ers this weekend. Great story about a man in Baltimore who helped save some kids from a fire, and check out this former inmate who's helping other ex-criminals rehab after getting out of prison. We were once again joined by Grant Bilse from the Wisco Sports show just after 8am. Brian's going to try a TikTok "health hack" that's basically just jumping a bunch of times first thing in the morning. And what's something you wish your phone could do? In today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a woman who got arrested for stealing her coworker's Stanley cup, a Waymo driverless car that stopped on some train tracks, a very popular app that checks up on people who live alone, and a guy who got a massive potato stuck up his ass.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A friend sent me a photo of a sweet potato — but not just any sweet potato. When it was cut open, the inside was completely rotten… except for one thing: the moldy core formed a perfect smiling face.In this shiur/class/episode, we explore what this means — scientifically, psychologically, and spiritually. From the phenomenon of facial pareidolia (seeing faces in random objects) to the Torah's deep insight into Panim (face) and Pnim (inner self), we uncover a powerful lesson about joy, perception, and the soul.Drawing from Avraham Avinu's sever panim yafos, we discuss the true power of a smile — how it can spread like fire, light up another person's world, and even ignite happiness within ourselves. Because our face isn't just ours — it's reshus harabim, a public space that can change someone's day… or their life.

Do you want to eat plant-based, but dread giving up your favorite treats and snacks? You know they contain dairy, egg and come with added refined sugars and saturated fat, so aren't the healthiest.

What's more, these treats are naturally refined-sugar-free and make a tasty healthy snack for adults and children alike.
