“Normal” and basic blood work does not tell us the whole story.In this episode, Louise Valentine, a multi-award-winning women's integrative health practitioner and exercise physiologist, shares why understanding which biomarkers to track and what they mean can be especially important for runners, active women, and their families. Using her daughter's first blood draw as an example, Louise explains how she teaches her children to see health data as empowering, useful information rather than something to fear.She discusses the difference between standard and optimal lab ranges, cutting-edge female-specific lab ranges, why tracking trends over time matters, and several markers she watches closely, including advanced cholesterol markers, liver enzymes, and ferritin. Louise also shares how under-fueling can affect recovery, energy, performance, hormones, injury-risk, and long-term bone health in endurance athletes.Along the way, she offers practical tips for making blood draws less stressful and shares lessons from her own family's health, fitness, and running journeys. The bigger message is simple: learning what your body needs today can help you make better decisions before small warning signs become bigger problems.RESOURCES + LINKSLearn & level up with my free nutrition guide & award-winning 1:1 Academy to thrive through perimenopause with less stress: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.comLearn, laugh & level up with a Breaking Through Wellness masterclass, including “How to Confidently Support Optimal Ferritin” here.Track your biomarkers with Function Health & save $25 using code “LVALENTINE11”  here.  $25 goes back to support BTW with each new sign up!

Filmmakers, welcome back to the podcast! Today Giles Alderson is sitting down with director Jonatan Etzler to talk about his brand new feature, Bad Apples. Now, if you want a masterclass in putting in the reps, Jonatan is your guy. He directed 17 short films that played at various festivals, including Intercourse, which screened at South by Southwest, and Swimmer, which won Best Comedy at Clermont-Ferrand. His graduation film from film school in Sweden even led to a Student Academy Award win and helped him secure a UK agent! We talk all about the massive transition from directing shorts—which he brilliantly describes as focusing on one specific situation or idea—to building full, complex character development across a feature film. His new film, Bad Apples, is an awkward, intoxicating ride. Jonatan breaks down his entire process, from writing a five-page English synopsis based on a book by Rasmus Lindgren to teaming up with producer Oskar Pimlott at Pulse Films and hiring screenwriter Jess O'Kane.

Send us Fan MailWhat makes swimmers want to keep showing up—not because an attendance policy requires it, but because they genuinely want to be there?Jonathan Kaplan, head coach and director of SwimRVA, joins Chris to discuss a collaborative approach to coaching built around athlete ownership. Jonathan explains why he has never used an attendance policy, how coaches can teach swimmers to manage the psychological demands of practice, and what happens when an athlete's entire identity becomes tied to results.They also explore confidence without false modesty, the damage created by praising outcomes while ignoring the process, and why much of championship-meet coaching becomes an attempt to undo lessons athletes learned when they were younger.Jonathan then shares how SwimRVA was designed around the needs of its community—removing barriers while creating space for everyone from seasonal participants to nationally competitive swimmers—and why good leadership requires enough confidence to question your own ideas.The result is not a rejection of performance. It is a different path toward it: build better people, give swimmers meaningful ownership, and create a program they don't want to leave.

Artists Dru Donovan and Jon Rubin join PhotoWork with Sasha Wolf to share their memories of legendary photographer, artist, and teacher Larry Sultan and discuss the release of Water Over Thunder: Selected Writings (MACK), the first publication devoted to Sultan's wide-ranging use of writing as a personal, artistic, and pedagogical tool, illustrated throughout with previously unseen materials from his archive. Former students, assistants, and friends of Sultan, Donovan and Rubin share personal stories about his approach to photography, teaching, and mentorship, while reflecting on his lasting influence and the privilege of collaborating with his family on this book. Dru Donovan Dru Donovan works with both photography and video to examine the connection between physical and emotional occurrences by constructing or revisiting human experiences. Donovan's work has shown nationally and internationally and was included in reGeneration2: Tomorrow's Photographers Today at the Musée de l'Elysée in Lausanne, Switzerland, and in the 2010 California Biennial at the Orange County Museum of Art, Fraenkel Gallery, Yancey Richardson Gallery, Williamson Knight Gallery and Philadelphia Photo Arts Center. Donovan's photographs were published in Aperture Magazine, Blind Spot, Picture Magazine and Matte Magazine. In 2011 TBW Books published her first book, Lifting Water. In 2011-2012 she participated in the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council's Workspace studio residency. Awards Donovan has received are the John Gutmann Photography Fellowship in 2015 and the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship in 2016. https://drudonovan.com Jon Rubin  Jon Rubin is an interdisciplinary artist who creates collaborative interventions into public life that re-imagine individual, group, and institutional behavior. His socially engaged projects include running a barter-based nomadic art school, founding a national museum, operating a restaurant that produces a live talk show with its customers, and co-directing another that only serves cuisine from countries with which the United States is in conflict. In 2019, with the support from Creative Capital, Rubin built an exact replica of his friend Sohrab Kashani's Tehran apartment so they both could live and work together in a parallel universe that bypassed the Trump travel ban. Rubin has exhibited at the Shanghai Biennial; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; the Mercosul Biennial; the Carnegie International; The Lyon Biennale; The Museum of Contemporary Art, Denver; The Museo Tamayo Arte Contemporaneo, Mexico; The Rooseum, Sweden; as well as in backyards, living rooms, and street corners. In 2017 the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum commissioned a major new work by Rubin and collaborator Lenka Clayton, entitled A talking parrot, a high school drama class, a Punjabi TV show, the oldest song in the world, a museum artwork, and a congregation's call to action circle through New York. With the participation of six diverse venues around New York City, the artists arranged for an essential element from each site—referenced in the project's title—to circulate from one place to the next, creating a six-month network of social and material exchange.  His work has been reported on internationally by outlets including The New York Times, The Associated Press, Art in America, Artforum, The Boston Globe, La Repubblica, Al Jazeera, BBC World News, and NPR's All Things Considered. Conflict Kitchen, Rubin's collaborative seven-year work with artist Dawn Weleski, was named as one of the 100 Artworks that “Defined the Decade” by Artnet News. Rubin is a Professor in the School of Art at Carnegie Mellon University. In 2016 he was awarded an Honorary Doctorate from the Columbus College of Art and Design. https://www.jonrubin.net Larry Sultan Larry Sultan (American photographer, b. Brooklyn, NY, 1946; d. Greenbrae, CA, 2009) was raised in California's San Fernando Valley. His work, heavily influenced by the post-war popular culture of Los Angeles, plays with notions of documentary and staged photography and reveals the psychological nuances found in the everyday suburban landscape and family life. Acclaimed for his use of color and light, Sultan is also known for uniquely collapsing the distance between himself and his subject. His series include Swimmers (1978-82), Pictures from Home (1983-92), The Valley (2004) and Homeland (2006-2009). Sultan co-authored the ground-breaking work, Evidence (1977) with Mike Mandel. A beloved and highly influential educator, Sultan taught at the San Francisco Art Institute from 1978 to 1988 and served as a Distinguished Professor of Photography at California College of the Arts, San Francisco, from 1989 to 2009. Sultan's work has been widely published, exhibited, and collected worldwide including Tate Modern, London; The National Gallery, London; Stedejik Museum, Amsterdam; Musée de l'Elysée, Lausanne; Centre Pompidou, Paris; The National Gallery of Art, Washington DC; Museum of Modern Art, NY; the Metropolitan Museum of Art, NY; Whitney Museum of American Art, NY; the Solomon Guggenheim Museum, NY; Los Angeles County San Francisco Museum of Art, CA; Art Institute of Chicago, IL. Sultan was the recipient of numerous awards, including a Guggenheim Fellowship, US Department of International Arts and Lectures Grant, National Endowment for the Arts Photography Fellowship. Sultan's project Pictures from Home was developed for the stage and premiered on Broadway in 2023. https://www.larrysultan.com

Where are you on the journey? How are you doing on the journey? And who is guiding you on the journey? In this week's message, Teaching Pastor Ron Merrell invites us to consider an essential truth for every season of life: Jesus Christ is our only real rescue on the open seas of life’s journey. Psalm 51 reminds us of our need for God’s mercy, unfailing love, and great compassion. We all carry transgressions, iniquity, and sin—but God meets us with grace and forgiveness. Jesus is the image of the invisible God, the One through whom all things were created, and the One in whom all things hold together. Through Christ, God reconciles us to Himself and makes peace through the blood Jesus shed on the cross. At the cross, Jesus took what we deserved and gave us what we could never deserve. Wherever you are on the journey, Jesus is our hope, our guide, and our rescue. Scripture: Psalm 51:1–2 NIV; Colossians 1:15–20 NIV Take a moment to ask yourself: • Where am I on the journey? • How am I doing on the journey? • Who is guiding me on the journey? May this message draw your heart back to the One who holds all things together. #RonMerrell #Jesus #Faith #Psalm51 #Colossians1 #TheCross #ChristianSermon #LifeJourney NEXT STEPSHave you made a decision to follow Jesus and now wondering what your next step is?

A Catalan woman is challenging police after officers confronted her for swimming nude at Cap de Bol and later followed her home to demand identification. The municipality points to a separate beach designated for naturism, but its published rules do not appear to prohibit nudity where the incident occurred. The dispute now turns on a basic question: if nudity is supposedly banned there, where is the law that says so?More at www dot planetnude dot co. This is a public episode.

Send us Fan MailSwimmers spend hours in the pool, yet many still aren't eating enough to support the work they're doing.Alicia Glass, Sport Dietitian for USA Swimming, joins to explain why swimmers need to think more like endurance athletes—and what happens when training volume and fueling fall out of alignment. We discuss early-morning practices without breakfast, why sugar and sports drinks can be valuable performance tools, and the practical barriers that keep exhausted athletes from eating consistently.The conversation also explores why effective nutrition advice must account for the individual, how restrictive ideas about “healthy” eating can leave athletes less adaptable, and what coaches should look for when bringing nutrition professionals into their programs.Finally, Alicia offers a nuanced approach to one of swimming's most difficult subjects: body composition.

In this episode of Beating Cancer Daily, Saranne shares some insights from a movie she recently enjoyed called The Swimmers. One phrase from the film really stuck with her: "find your lane, swim your race." Saranne believes this is a potent message, especially for folks navigating the choppy waters of cancer, who sometimes feel expected to handle their situation in a specific way. She underlines how crucial it is to chart your own course through your cancer journey and, surprisingly, the personal growth opportunities it might spark.2025 People's Choice Podcast Awards Best Health Series FinalistRanked the Top 5 Best Cancer Podcasts by CancerCare News in 2024 & 2025,and #1 Rated Cancer Survivor Podcast by FeedSpot in 2024 to 2025. Beating Cancer Daily is listened to in 150 countries across 7 continents and features over 420+ original daily episodes hosted by Stage IV survivor Saranne Rothberg.

Original Air Date: 8/29/26 Episode Number: 474Episode SummaryDan opens with a vacation story about swimmer's itch, a chatty store clerk, and a deeply awkward attempt to warn strangers on a dock -- with one actually useful tip at the end. Then the main event: Hoosier cabinets. Dan covers what they are, why they were brilliant, how they spread into one in ten American kitchens in the early 1900s, where the name came from, why they eventually disappeared, and why people are hunting them down again today. The episode closes with four design principles pulled straight out of the Hoosier cabinet that apply to any storage or organization project in your home.Timestamps[00:00] -- Back From Vacation[00:41] -- Swimmer's Itch Explained[02:36] -- Itch Attack at the Store[05:16] -- Awkward Dock Warning[12:20] -- Vaseline Hack and Aftermath[13:24] -- Hoosier Cabinets Teaser[14:01] -- Hoosier Cabinet Features[16:25] -- Why They Became Popular[17:37] -- Why Hoosiers Worked[19:11] -- Sponsor Break[19:27] -- Cabinet Layout Tour[21:37] -- Ingenious Built-In Features[25:11] -- Where the Name Came From[27:24] -- Why They Disappeared[28:42] -- Modern Resurgence[30:53] -- Design Principles for Any Space[31:41] -- Four Rules in Practice[39:21] -- Final Takeaways and Sign OffSwimmer's Itch and the Dock Incident [00:41]Swimmer's itch is an itchy skin rash caused by an allergic reaction to microscopic parasites in the water. On most years at Burt Lake -- about 20 minutes south of Mackinaw City, where the Hansen family vacations -- it amounts to maybe 10 or 15 small dots on the legs after a week of swimming. Manageable. Scrubbing off with a towel and showering after swimming keeps it in check. Spraying legs with waterproof sunscreen before going in also seems to help.This year, Dan skipped the sunscreen and ended up with the worst case he's ever had. His legs felt like they were on fire -- not pain, just relentless itching -- and he drove to the nearest store and bought $60 worth of anti-itch creams, sprays, calamine lotion, witch hazel, and Epsom salts. The store clerk was a very enthusiastic talker who wanted to discuss each item, share the story of his childhood poison ivy, and price-check several things by shouting across the store. It was a long checkout.After a couple of hours of applying everything he bought, the itching started to calm down. By that evening he was mostly fine.The Vaseline tip. Coating your legs with Vaseline before swimming creates a barrier that makes it harder for the parasites to reach your skin. It feels strange but not as strange as you'd expect. Dan used it for the rest of the trip and nobody in his family got swimmer's itch after that. He tried to share this tip with two new families he saw swimming in the shallowest part of the lake the next day. The attempt to warn them on a narrow dock involved an unexplained leg-lift, the phrase "I have a message for you," and a display of the spots on his leg that left both men frozen and blinking for an extended period. The warning eventually got through. Dan walked back to the cabin. The Vaseline tip is real. The social execution was not.What Is a Hoosier Cabinet? [14:01]Hoosier cabinets are freestanding kitchen storage units that were made primarily in Indiana from the late 1800s through the 1930s. They are, by most measures, one of the most cleverly designed pieces of kitchen furniture ever made -- and most people today have never heard of them.The basic structure: about four feet wide and six feet tall. Lower cabinets on casters, a work surface in the middle, and shallower upper cabinets above. That much sounds simple. The details are what make them worth talking about.The pull-out counter. The work surface can slide out toward you, adding six to eight inches of workspace when you need it. When you're done, you push it back. But here's what makes it genuinely clever: the drawers directly underneath the counter travel with it. When you pull the counter out, those drawers come with it, so everything you need is still within reach -- not stranded behind where you're standing.The flour bin. Behind one of the upper cabinet doors, many Hoosier cabinets had a large built-in flour storage bin with a sifter and dispenser at the bottom. You slide your bowl underneath, turn a crank, and sifted flour drops right into the bowl. No hauling out a bag, no digging around with a scoop. A separate sugar bin often worked the same way on the other side.The doors. Not an inch of space goes unused. The backs of the cabinet doors are fully utilized -- spice racks, cookbook holders, pie tin racks, hooks, and in some models, baking charts printed directly onto the door interior showing measurements and oven times.The lower cabinet. When you open the lower doors, many models have a shelf that slides or rolls out automatically -- not something you have to dig around in the back of with a flashlight. Pan storage made accessible.The roll-top section. Above the pull-out counter, between the counter surface and the upper cabinets, many models had a small roll-top section that kept counter-level items behind a slatted door when not in use. Counter-level storage, completely hidden when you don't want to look at it.The countertop surface itself was typically porcelain enamel or zinc -- durable, easy to clean, built for heavy daily use.All of that packed into four feet of wall space, on wheels.Why Hoosier Cabinets Caught On [16:25]Here's the context most people don't know: for most of American history, kitchens were nearly empty rooms. Not the way we think of a kitchen today. You had a work table, a sink, maybe a few open shelves. Built-in cabinetry existed but required hiring a skilled carpenter to build directly into the house, and most people couldn't afford it. Built-in cabinets didn't become a standard feature in American kitchens until the late 1920s.That meant the flour was in the pantry. The sugar was in the pantry. The bowls were on a shelf across the room. Every time you baked, you walked to the pantry for flour, back to the table, across the room for a bowl, back to the pantry because you forgot the baking powder. Over and over.Hoosier cabinets were marketed as saving you 1,000 steps. Pull up a chair and don't get up again. Everything you needed for daily baking -- flour, sugar, spices, rolling pins, cutting boards, bread knives, bowls -- was concentrated in one workstation, with a surface to work on included. The number 1,000 may have been marketing, but the concept was real. These cabinets genuinely changed how work happened in a kitchen.About 130 companies eventually made versions of them, most based in Indiana, and at their peak one in ten American kitchens had one.Where the Name Came From [25:11]The origin of the Hoosier cabinet is harder to pin down than you'd expect. Kitchen cabinet patents go back to around 1885, and what seems to have happened is that multiple Indiana furniture companies landed on the same basic idea around the same time. According to the museum in Nappanee, Indiana -- which has one of the best collections of these cabinets in the country -- no one person and no one company gets the credit for inventing them.The name most likely came from one of two sources. The Hoosier Manufacturing Company of New Castle, Indiana was the largest producer and the loudest advertiser. Their brand may have become the generic name for the whole category, the same way Kleenex became the word for any facial tissue. The other argument is simpler: most of these cabinets were made in Indiana, home of the Hoosiers, so they became Hoosier cabinets by geography. Either way, the name stuck and became the universal term for the whole category.Why Hoosier Cabinets Disappeared [27:24]Built-in cabinets. By the late 1920s, houses were being built with real cabinetry integrated into the walls, continuous countertops, proper storage from floor to ceiling. A four-foot freestanding cabinet couldn't compete with a whole wall of built-ins.The fact that Hoosier cabinets sat on legs also became a problem. Dust, grease, and crumbs collected in the space underneath, and that gap was harder to clean than a sealed cabinet base that met the floor. Built-ins were simply easier to maintain.Manufacturers tried to fight the decline with prettier patterns and brighter colors. One company offered a Mediterranean-styled version. None of it worked. By 1935, the Hoosier cabinet was considered old-fashioned. The Hoosier Manufacturing Company was sold and eventually liquidated in 1942.The Modern Resurgence [28:42]Hoosier cabinets are showing up again. People are finding them at antique stores and estate sales, and the market for them is real.A rough-condition oak cabinet in need of work can sometimes be found for a few hundred dollars. Fully restored examples -- cleaned up, refinished, hardware sorted out -- start around $1,100 and average closer to $1,800. If you want to build your own, plans are available online, including from Popular Woodworking and similar sources.Dan recommends searching for Hoosier cabinet videos as a starting point. There's a 12-minute walkthrough in the show notes at repcolite.com from a woman who just remodeled her entire kitchen and says her Hoosier cabinet is still the single best-functioning area in it.Four Design Principles From the Hoosier Cabinet [31:41]These apply to any storage or organization project in...

Ask a question hereNatalie Hood continues her conversation with Dewey Case of the Council for the Model Aquatic Health Code, separating cold-plunge science from wellness-industry hype.Cold plunges may be popular, but cold water changes chemical reaction rates, sanitizer performance, testing accuracy, and the body's physiological response. Being young, athletic, or highly experienced around water does not make anyone immune to blood-sugar crashes, loss of consciousness, drowning, or other emergencies.Natalie and Dewey discuss why cold-water samples should be allowed to warm before testing, why commercial plunges should strongly consider supplemental treatment such as UV, ozone, or advanced oxidation, and why a quick pre-entry rinse can remove a surprising amount of contamination before it enters a very small body of water.They also address the biggest myth of all: because someone only spends a few minutes in a cold plunge, the risk must be low. The exposure may be short, but the risks are not necessarily smaller—they are simply different.Topics discussed include:Why even healthy, conditioned athletes can experience emergenciesThe dangers of using a cold plunge, pool, or spa aloneHow cold temperatures affect water-testing reactionsWhy cold samples should be capped and warmed before testingReduced sanitizer reaction rates in cold waterWhy small water volume and heavy bather loads create greater riskThe value of UV, ozone, and advanced oxidationSweat, ammonia, urea, dirt, and everything else bathers drag into the waterWhy pre-entry showers matterHow a simple rinse can substantially reduce contaminantsWhy short exposure does not automatically mean low riskThe importance of supervision, maintenance, testing, and operator diligenceThe takeaway is simple: be diligent. Know what the water is doing, test it regularly, maintain the vessel properly, and never assume that experience or physical fitness makes someone bulletproof.Download the Cold Water Venue Guidance from the Council for the Model Aquatic Health Code.Natalie also shares an update on her Tennessee Triple Crown Open Water Swim Challenge.

Brian vanishes beneath Clear Lake and returns hours later clutching a carved relic—waterlogged, impossibly strong, and violently changed. Brian and Michelle plan a quiet end-of-summer camping trip, only to find Michelle's former best friends Kristin, Hailey, and Bella in the neighboring site. Old tensions soften into drinking, swimming, and one last celebration before school resumes. Then Brian dives into the lake looking for lost objects and finds something resembling carved petrified wood beneath the dark grass. The relic will not let him release it or swim to the surface. When he finally reappears, his body is bloated with water and his personality is gone. He attacks the women with supernatural strength, opens the object into a small box, and transforms the lake into an alien landscape beneath a green sky. Michelle must get the relic away from him without touching it while something in the water tugs at the survivors from below. Bruce Haney's “The Darkness Under Clear Lake” blends cursed-object horror, possession, an end-of-summer lake trip, body horror, warped reality, and friendship tested by an underwater threat. The richer description names Brian, Michelle, Kristin, Hailey, and Bella while keeping the origin and full power of the sunken box unknown. Story by Bruce Haney.

The Tragic Case of Molly Bish  Molly Bish was 16 years old and working as a lifeguard at Comins Pond in Warren. She'd only been working there about a week on June 27th, 2000 when her mother dropped her off for her 10:00 shift. Swimmers would be arriving any minute, but just minutes later when they started piling in for swim lessons, there was no lifeguard on duty. In a matter of minutes Molly vanished, but it would be three years before her partial remains would be discovered, and over twenty with no answers. This case remains unsolved to this day, although the investigation is very much active. **Anyone With information about the Molly Bish case should call the State Police tip line at 508-453-7575 Morbid Chats With Heather Bish Before recording episode 214, The Tragic Case of Molly Bish, we reached out to Molly's sister Heather who has been working tirelessly to get Molly's case solved.

There's no rest for some of our Commonwealth Games medallists with the swimmers back competing in the pool this week. A 15-strong New Zealand team is preparing to take on some of the world's best at the Pan Pacific Swimming Championships in California, which is the first time the competition has been held in eight years. Sports reporter Felicity Reid spoke to Melissa Chan-Green.

How and why do art and Summer join forces? Art, and visual arts especially, show imminent change–but so does Summer and its ideal of creative flow. How did–or did not–art speak of the climate emergency, gender policing, the war–in short, of loss? What role does this hot and luscious season play in the hubris of conquest, or the black hole of grief? Art curator and writer Joana P. R. Neves, our host, reminisces about Agnes Martin and John Cheever, and their opposing ideas of Summer and of creation, touching on two paintings by David Hockney and a poignant text by Luigi Pirandello. Joana loved a text sent to her by its author, Vittorio Zappa, on Substack, that guided the last part of the episode, leading to its denouement. Is Summer the season of creative flow of life and art making, full of light and sensorial stimuli? Is creativity about desire or meditative art? Or are all these myths, perpetuated by capitalist simplifications? Has art contributed to create them? Or has it always been alerting us to the cruelty of change via Art Wonderment, the art of paradox?Did you enjoy the episode?

Send us Fan MailCold plunges and ice baths are appearing everywhere—from fitness centers and recovery facilities to wellness clinics, athletic programs, and luxury spas. But colder water does not automatically mean cleaner or safer water.In this episode of the Talking Pools Podcast, Natalie Hood is joined by Dewey Case, Technical Director for the Council for the Model Aquatic Health Code and Aquatics Coordinator for Williamson County Parks and Recreation in Tennessee.Dewey helped assemble the experts behind the new CMAHC Cold Water Venue Guidance. Together, he and Natalie separate cold-plunge facts from social-media fiction and explain why these increasingly popular venues require far more attention than a tub, a garden hose, and several bags of ice.They discuss why bacteria can survive in cold water, how lower temperatures can slow sanitizer performance, and why even a single user introduces sweat, body oils, cosmetics, urea, and microorganisms into the water. They also examine the much greater contamination burden created when a commercial system serves dozens—or potentially hundreds—of users each week.The conversation covers the risks associated with poorly maintained systems, including biofilm, Pseudomonas, swimmer's ear, and the possibility of transferring gastrointestinal pathogens. They also explain why dunking your head into questionable cold-plunge water may be a particularly bad idea.In This EpisodeWhy cold water does not sanitize itselfThe truth about bacteria and pathogens in cold plungesWhy “I'm the only person using it” does not eliminate water-quality concernsWhat sweat, cosmetics, clothing, and body oils add to the waterWhy users should shower before enteringThe risks of head submersion in poorly maintained waterHow biofilm and Pseudomonas can develop inside plumbing and on surfacesWhy commercial cold plunges are not simply oversized bathtubsHow high bather loads change filtration, sanitation, and maintenance demandsWhy cold-water chemistry can be more challenging than spa chemistryHow low temperatures affect chemical dissolution and disinfectionThe purpose of the new CMAHC Cold Water Venue GuidanceWhy proper operation, cleaning, and maintenance make cold-water immersion saferAs Dewey explains, a home cold plunge used by one person and a recirculating commercial venue serving hundreds of bathers are not the same thing. When the bather load changes, the operational practices must change with it.This episode is essential listening for pool professionals, aquatic operators, health officials, inspectors, facility managers, designers, builders, fitness-center owners, and anyone responsible for operating a commercial cold-water venue.She Swims So They CanNatalie is preparing to swim more than 21 miles across three open-water swimming marathons as part of the Tennessee Triple Crown Open Water Swim Challenge.

Minnesotans love loons for their haunting calls, striking beauty and adorable chicks that ride on their parents' backs. But what happens when one of these iconic birds suddenly charges a swimmer? After a young Curious Minnesota listener accidentally swam between a fierce loon and its chicks, he wanted to know: Do loons attack people, and how often does it happen? Reporter Eva Herscowitz spoke with biologists, wildlife rescuers and devoted loon watchers to find out. In this episode, host Erica Pearson and Herscowitz explore the warning signs loons use when they feel threatened, the rare encounters that have left people injured and why humans pose a much greater danger to loons than loons do to us. Plus, Erica's dad shares the unforgettable story of his own face-to-face encounter with an angry loon in northern Minnesota.

Sylvia Turner, affectionately known to generations of Lafayette families as “Ms. T,” joins Discover Lafayette to reflect upon a remarkable life of teaching, music, faith, and service to others. For more than five decades, beginning in 1972, Sylvia taught children and adults to swim in the backyard pool of her Lafayette home. But anyone fortunate enough to have taken lessons from Ms. T knows she taught much more than swimming. She taught safety. She taught respect. She taught children to encourage one another, to follow rules, to appreciate their parents, and perhaps most importantly, to believe they could do things that initially frightened them. “One of my greatest compliments was when people would say, ‘You don't just teach swimming, do you?'” Sylvia recalls. “I said, ‘No, I don't. I teach everything I can while I can.'” Two Lives: Ms. T and Sylvia the Singer Many Lafayette residents knew Sylvia exclusively as Ms. T, the swim teacher who could spend long summer days in the pool working with one class after another. Others knew an entirely different Sylvia Turner, a classically trained singer whose musical life was intertwined with that of her late husband, John Turner. Sylvia grew up in Fort Worth, Texas, and came to Lafayette with John, who taught voice at UL for 34 years. Sylvia later received an opera scholarship, and the couple performed opera together as well as singing at university commencement ceremonies. She also became a fixture at the Order of Troubadours ball, serving as the opening soloist for “Make Believe” for 40 years. The separation between her two worlds occasionally created funny moments. Sylvia remembers singing at a commencement ceremony when a family approached her afterward, looking puzzled. “Ms. T, is that you? Did you sing?” “Yes,” she answered. “In the singing world, a lot of people didn't know that I taught swimming,” Sylvia says. “And then in the swimming world, a lot of people didn't know that I sang.” Sylvia Turner is an active member of Chorale Acadienne. She is pictured fourth from left in the photo. A Fear of Water Leads to a Lifetime in the Pool It is fitting that Sylvia ultimately devoted so much of her life to teaching people to be comfortable in the water, because she did not learn to swim herself until she was 11 years old. Her mother, Lucille, had nearly drowned at age 18. The experience was so traumatic that Sylvia grew up repeatedly hearing, “Don't go near the water.” Eventually, her mother enrolled her in Red Cross swimming lessons at a park pool. Sylvia loved the water immediately. At the end of the lessons, the instructor announced a swim meet. Sylvia entered, won a red ribbon for second place, and, as she puts it, “I was hooked.” Her mother began allowing her to spend time at the pool, where Sylvia became fascinated by a group of young men who were accomplished divers. She simply asked them if they would teach her. They did. Before long, Sylvia was diving from the three-meter board and later competed as a diver when she was 13 and 14 years old. Eventually, voice training began competing with diving for her attention, but her love of the water never disappeared. The Pool That Started It All Sylvia's path to becoming one of Lafayette's best-known swim instructors began with a frustrating afternoon at Riverside pool. Sylvia and her husband, John, were living in River's Bend with their three children when, on a beautiful sunny day, the lifeguard announced everyone had to leave the pool because he needed to take a test and there was no one qualified to substitute for him. Sylvia was not pleased. “I went home and I said to my husband, ‘You know, if I had a lifesaving badge, I could have gotten up on the stand and we could have kept the pool open.'” John's response was simple: go get it. Sylvia and a friend took a lifesaving class at Girard Park. At the conclusion of the course, the instructor assigned Sylvia two women from a mothers' swimming program to teach. “My ladies did beautifully,” she remembers. “And so I was further hooked.” As Sylvia and John prepared to build their new home, she began thinking about adding a swimming pool. The price gave her pause, particularly when they realized it would effectively double their house payment. Sylvia had an answer. “Oh, John, if I paid for it, could we do it?” How would she pay for it? “I could teach.” And that is exactly what she did. Sylvia began teaching swimming lessons in 1972. Her first student was a young man she met through the grocery store who was preparing to get married. His future wife could swim, he could not, and he did not want to be the person sitting on the beach while everyone else enjoyed the water. Sylvia taught him to swim. Years later, he returned with his children. It was the beginning of generations of Lafayette families learning from Ms, T. Safety Came First Before any child entered Sylvia's pool, there were rules. “Children like to know boundaries,” she says. Students first sat on the deck while Sylvia sat at their eye level and talked about safety. Then she walked them around the pool. Nothing was taken for granted. She showed them the skimmers. She explained the drain. She taught them what the various parts of the pool did and addressed fears children might be reluctant to express. That lesson came partly from the children themselves. One little boy looked across the pool at the dark opening of a skimmer and asked Sylvia, “Is that where you keep Jaws?” From that point forward, Sylvia opened the skimmers so the children could look inside. “I learned the children are great teachers,” she says. “I learned a lot from children.” Only after the rules and pool orientation were complete did everyone get into the water. Teaching Children to Respect One Another Ms. T in a photo taken by Jan Swift when she taught Kelly Swift, Jan’s daughter, to swim and dive….circa 2009. Sylvia's lessons were intentionally positive. “I had the children applaud each other all the time,” she says. “We applauded for everything. We didn't just applaud for excellence. We applauded for effort.” Criticism was not allowed unless it was constructive. Older swimmers were taught how to watch one another perform a stroke and offer feedback, beginning with something the swimmer had done well. Sylvia traces much of that philosophy to her mother, who was an exceptionally positive person, and to the instructor who taught Sylvia lifesaving at Girard Park. “She made you feel like you were the most special person in the world.” Sylvia wanted children in her pool to feel the same way. One experience still moves her. A little girl had missed the first day of lessons and joined the class on the second day. When it was her turn to get onto the diving board, she hesitated. Finally, she turned to Sylvia and asked, “Do they have to watch?” Before Sylvia could say anything, every child waiting nearby turned his or her back. “I can't tell that story without getting emotional,” Sylvia says. The children understood that their classmate needed to try something difficult without an audience. “A lot of times we have to do things without people watching.” “Are You the Boss of This Pool?” Boundaries mattered because safety mattered. During one family swim, a visiting child began running around the pool and jumping too close to other swimmers. Sylvia called him over and explained that the pool had rules. The boy looked at her and asked, “Are you the boss of this pool?” “Yes, I am.” “Oh.” That was the end of the problem. “Children want to know who's in charge,” Sylvia says. “And they want somebody to be in charge.” Those lessons stayed with her students long after class ended. One mother called Sylvia after taking her children to another pool. Her four-year-old son Nicholas noticed another little boy breaking pool safety rules and corrected him. The boy replied that his daddy owned the pool and he could do anything he wanted. He added that he took swimming lessons. Nicholas had an answer: “Well, obviously you don't take from Ms. T because you don't know the rules.” Relaxation and Rhythm For Sylvia, learning to swim rested on two fundamental principles. “The two most important things in swimming are relaxation and rhythm.” Relaxation came first. A tense body does not float well. Students learned to float before progressing incrementally through kicking, strokes, diving and more advanced skills. “You do it by stages,” Sylvia says. “And that's how you learn anything really, by little increments.” The same principle applied to diving. Sylvia never forced a frightened child from the diving board. Students progressed from a knee dive close to the water, to a falling dive, then standing, springing, and eventually diving from the board. Her goal was not simply for a child to acquire a skill. The child needed confidence in that skill. “If you have a skill without confidence, it's not really productive.” Teaching Adults and Overcoming Fear Although Ms, T is best remembered for teaching children, Sylvia loved teaching adults, particularly because, as she says, “They always have baggage.” Some carried a fear of water for decades. She taught men, women and couples, including two women who were 71 years old. But no adult student meant more to Sylvia than her own mother. Lucille's near drowning at age 18 had shaped Sylvia's childhood and her mother's lifelong relationship with water. Then, on her 70th birthday, Lucille surprised Sylvia by announcing a goal for the coming year. “I've decided I'm going to learn to swim.” Sylvia was stunned. Her mother continued: “I've decided that if anybody can teach me, it's you.” Sylvia responded, “Well, you'll never have to give me another compliment in your whole life.” Lucille was unable to make the trip to Lafayette that year, but the following year she came and took lessons from her daughter. By the end of the week, she could swim across the pool without assistance. Sylvia later asked whether she had finally lost her fear. Her mother answered, “I don't know, but I loved being in the water.” Sylvia thought that was enough. Of all the adults she taught, she describes teaching her mother as perhaps the most gratifying experience of all. Generations of Lafayette Families Sylvia never kept count of how many people she taught during her decades in the pool, particularly because so many students returned year after year and eventually brought another generation back with them. Her classes grew largely through word of mouth. Her youngest daughter attended Broadmoor Elementary, where Sylvia was heavily involved in the PTA. The principal, himself the father of seven children whom Sylvia eventually taught along with his wife, allowed her to distribute information about her lessons through the school. “And then word spread.” For younger children, particularly three and four year olds, Sylvia limited classes to six students and had another adult in the water with her. Older, accomplished swimmers could be taught in somewhat larger groups. Sylvia also encouraged parents to observe lessons so they understood what their children were learning and could reinforce those lessons away from the pool. The lessons often carried into everyday family life: respect your parents, appreciate what they do for you, respect other people, encourage others, follow the rules, and understand that safety is never something to take casually. The Teacher Who Never Taught School When asked how she defines herself after a lifetime encompassing swimming, opera, church music, family and community, Sylvia returns to teaching. “Every teacher I ever had told me that I was destined to be a teacher.” Yet she never became a traditional classroom teacher. “I taught Sunday school. I taught junior choir. I taught swimming. I'm an inveterate teacher.” She also remains a singer, grounded in the classical and religious music that has been part of her life since childhood. Sylvia grew up in the church. Her mother sang in the choir, her father was a deacon, and Sylvia herself began singing in choir at age 12. Faith remained a constant through the joyful times and the difficult ones. And that may help explain the extraordinary positivity so many people associate with Ms. T. Asked how she manages to remain positive, Sylvia acknowledges that it requires intention. “You have to work at it, I think, because it's easy to be negative.” Even in the hardest times, she says, there is something to hold onto. “Even in those darkest days, you have to find something. And gratitude is part of it.” Sylvia looks back on her life with gratitude for the people, experiences and opportunities she has been given, while acknowledging that her life has included hardship like anyone else's. “I've had some hard knocks, as everybody does during my life. I'm here to say that I overcame them.” Then she adds the foundation beneath it all: “With the help of my Lord.” For generations of Lafayette families, Ms. T will always be the woman who taught their children to swim. But her legacy reaches well beyond the pool. She taught children to be safe without being afraid, to respect rules and one another, to applaud effort rather than simply excellence, and to gain confidence one small step at a time. And she taught it all while making each child feel that, at that moment, they mattered.

Except, it's taken Libby a couple of weeks to actually talk about it. Miller was a swimming poster boy of the 90s who fell from favour and the public eye after he was arrested and jailed for his involvement in drugs and trafficking. And it's more relatable to than Libby had anticipated.

Perth, 1962 and a New Zealand school girl was taking on the world's best at the Commonwealth Games. Against the odds it seemed like she'd won gold. That school girl was Vivien Boyd - Vivien Haddon as she was then - and the finish in the 100-metre breaststroke final was as close as you can get. But what happened next still rankles, even after six decades. Reporter Jimmy Ellingham caught up with Vivien Boyd.

This week on Past Our Prime, we welcome two legends from one of the greatest Olympic swim teams ever assembled—Jim Montgomery and Brian Goodell. Montgomery made history at the 1976 Montreal Olympics by becoming the first swimmer to break the 50-second barrier in the 100-meter freestyle, while Goodell, just 17 years old and still a high school student, captured two individual gold medals and set world records in both the 400- and 1,500-meter freestyle. Together, they helped lead the United States to a dominant performance in Montreal, and on the podcast they relive the races, the rivalries, the unforgettable atmosphere of the Games, and what it was like to be part of one of the most remarkable weeks in Olympic swimming history. The July 26, 1976 issue of Sports Illustrated arrived during the first full week of the Montreal Olympics, and its cover perfectly captured the optimism and spectacle of the Games. Featuring the Olympic cauldron being lit during the Opening Ceremonies by Canadian teenagers Stéphane Préfontaine and Sandra Henderson beneath the headline, "The Show Goes On in Montreal," the cover symbolized the resilience of the Olympics after political boycotts by more than two dozen African nations and the withdrawal of Taiwan threatened to overshadow the competition. Inside, the magazine shifted the focus back to the athletes and the drama unfolding in Montreal, previewing what would become one of the most memorable Olympics in history, highlighted by Nadia Comăneci's perfect 10s, the dominance of the U.S. swim team, and a remarkable week of track and field that reaffirmed the enduring spirit of the Games. Jim Montgomery arrived in Montreal as the world's premier sprint freestyler and left as one of the Olympics' biggest stars. The Indiana University standout became the first swimmer in history to break the 50-second barrier in the 100-meter freestyle, winning gold in a world-record 49.99 seconds—a milestone often compared to Roger Bannister's four-minute mile. Montgomery also won gold in the 4x200-meter freestyle relay and the 4x100-meter medley relay, with both teams setting world records, and added a bronze medal in the 200-meter freestyle. His three gold medals established him as the fastest swimmer in the world and helped lead the United States to one of the most dominant team performances in Olympic swimming history. Brian Goodell was just 17 years old and still a high school student when he emerged as one of the breakout stars of the 1976 Montreal Olympics. The distance freestyle sensation captured gold medals in both the 400- and 1,500-meter freestyle, setting world records in each event and establishing himself as the world's premier distance swimmer. After returning home from Montreal as a double Olympic champion and world-record holder, Goodell headed back to California to begin his senior year at Mission Viejo High School, capping one of the most extraordinary summers ever enjoyed by an American teenager. On this week's episode of Past Our Prime, Montgomery and Goodell take listeners back to that magical week in Montreal, sharing firsthand stories from one of the greatest Olympic swim teams ever assembled.

The Plunge: Maverick Swimmers, an Unlikely Quest, and the Transformative Power of Cold Water

Minnesota is baking under a mass of hot, dry air this week. Few things bring relief from extreme heat like wading or swimming out into the cool water of this region's lakes and streams. But that's also part of the danger of a heat wave. Drownings spiked when temperatures soared in Europe earlier this summer. This was also true during an infamously hot summer in North America 90 years ago.Today, swimming lessons are more common. And sheriff's departments across the state have staff dedicated to water safety. Troy Lee, water patrol officer for Otter Tail County joined Minnesota Now host Nina Moini to talk about staying safe while out on the water.
