One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on the Daily Radio Bible, a daily Bible‑in‑a‑year podcast with 20‑minute Scripture readings, Christ‑centered devotion, and guided prayer.This daily Bible reading and devotional invites you to live as a citizen of Jesus' kingdom, reconciled, renewed, and deeply loved. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible podcast! In today's episode for January 31st, 2026, Hunter guides us through the final day of January with a deep and meaningful journey into Scripture. We continue our exploration of Exodus, digging into chapters 28 and 29, where God gives detailed instructions for Aaron and his sons to be set apart as priests. We witness the sacred garments, rituals, and ceremonies that marked their consecration, pointing to themes of holiness and representation before God. Switching to the New Testament, Hunter reads from Acts 7, recounting Stephen's powerful defense before the high priest—a sweeping narrative that ties together the story of Abraham, Moses, and Israel, culminating in the revelation of Jesus as the fulfillment of God's promise to liberate and redeem all of humanity. Stephen's words serve as an invitation to embrace God's story—a story of hope, freedom, and love—and to recognize Christ's work in drawing us into a life that is full and free. The episode closes with heartfelt prayers for peace, unity, purpose, and love, reminding listeners of God's presence and faithfulness as they step into a new month. If you're seeking encouragement and spiritual rhythm in your daily life, join Hunter for Scripture, reflection, and prayer—knowing that you are loved, no doubt about it. TODAY'S DEVOTION: The story is not over. Stephen is giving us a sweeping historical account to open the eyes of people trapped in a story that does not give them life. And that, my friend, is so easy to do. We so easily get swept up into our pride, our ambition, our past, our shame, our regrets. We can be so buried and blinded by our story that we fail to see that we have been drawn into the story of God—a story of liberation, of freedom, a story of hope, a story of love. Stephen has shown us that all of history is pointing to Christ, who has come for all humanity to set us free from slavery and to make us his own. And Christ has given himself that he might drag all of humanity into the story that we were made for. So let us humbly agree and say thank you for what Christ has done, for what you have become in him. You are his child and you are free. So let us live in the light and the freedom of what God has done in Christ—for you, for me, for the whole world. That's the prayer that I have for my own soul. That's the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife and my daughters and my son. And that's the prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen. Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen. And now Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, Joy. Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life. Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ. Amen.

Part 1 of a story that will unravel into something you won't be able to stop thinking about. In this episode, Jayna introduces a woman very close to her heart — a trusted member of her makeup team and a friend who, like so many of us, wanted love badly enough she silenced her own intuition. What begins as a romantic, hopeful meeting with a man who feels like "the one" quickly becomes the opening chapter of a much bigger, darker, and more complicated journey. This episode is the calm before the storm — the butterflies, the chemistry, the moments that feel fated… and the tiny red flags that are easy to dismiss when you're in too deep. It lays the emotional groundwork for a multi-part series that will unfold into betrayal, endurance, and the devastating cost of abandoning yourself for love. By the end, you'll be asking one question: is this the man she marries… or the man who changes her forever? Buckle up, because what's coming next will have you on the edge of your seat.

All the info is over at diabetes-connetionss.com events/ Okay.. our top story this week: XX All UK children could be offered screening for type 1 diabetes using a simple finger-prick blood test, say researchers who have been running a large study. This is the ELSA study - Early Surveillance for Autoimmune diabetes, a first of its kind UK study. They tested blood samples from 17,931 children aged 3-13 for autoantibodies, markers of type 1 diabetes that can appear years before symptoms. Families of children found to have early-stage type 1 diabetes received tailored education and ongoing support to prepare for the eventual onset of type 1 diabetes symptoms and to ensure insulin therapy can begin promptly when needed, reducing the chances of needing emergency treatment. Those with one autoantibody also received ongoing support and monitoring. Some families were also offered teplizumab, the first ever immunotherapy for type 1 diabetes, which can delay the need for insulin by around three years in people with early-stage type 1 diabetes. The second phase has launched and will expand screening to all children in the UK aged 2-17 years, with a focus on younger children (2-3 years) and older teenagers (14-17 years). The research team aims to recruit 30,000 additional children across these new age groups. ELSA 2 will assess how screening can be scaled across the NHS and evaluate its cost-effectiveness. https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/news/2026/childhood-type-1-diabetes-screening-is-effective-and-could-prevent-thousands-of-emergency-diagnoses XX At the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference Dexcom CEO Jake Leach says they're going to launch a new product outside the US. I'll link up that interview, The full quote: "When you look at the outside the U.S., there are a lot of structures that are tiered. Patients have access to different types of products, so we've got a new one that we want to introduce that will add flexibility there. It's based on the G7 platform, just like Dexcom ONE+, but it has a unique experience that's tailored for a subset of users that, today, don't have access to Dexcom." Your guess is as good as mine, but sounds more like a pricing or ordering issue than a new bit of hardware or software. Dexcom will also bring Stelo to some international markets this year. And plans a new mobile app experience for the wearable biosensor meant for people who don't dose insulin. Leach also says G8 will be much smaller and with more capability. but is a few years away. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/dexcom-ceo-jake-leach-2026-roadmap-jpm/ XX A new international consensus statement provides guidance for the use of diabetes technology during pregnancy for women with type 1 diabetes (T1D), type 2 diabetes (T2D), or gestational diabetes (GD). Organized by the diaTribe Foundation, the document was based on evidence where available, as well as opinion from an international group of experts in endocrinology, diabetes technology, and obstetrics & gynecology, among others. This is the first set of recommendations specifically addressing the use of diabetes technology in pregnancy – and we'll link it up. https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/new-consensus-statement-addresses-diabetes-tech-pregnancy-2026a100020d XX Bariatric surgery beats GLP-1s for type 2 diabetes across income levels. This study was published this month, looking at nearly 300 patients are 4 medical centers. Success here is measured by lower blood glucose levels, higher weight loss (28% vs. 10%), less use of diabetes medications, remission of diabetes to the point of no longer needing to inject insulin, and reduced risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Bariatric surgery was better than medical therapy across all social backgrounds, they found, and not just in areas of higher deprivation. The ancillary study was smaller, and some of the participants randomized in earlier stages crossed over from medical to surgical treatment, and the reverse. The authors acknowledged and accounted for these limitations, along with the rapid development of more powerful obesity drugs not fully captured in the study. This was a long term study – more than 12 years – and by the end of the study more people were choosing GLP1 medications. One dividing line: If someone hopes to lose 100 pounds, that's more likely with surgery than with medications. "Ultimately, we need large, long-term, well-designed studies to clarify the best strategy for a given patient." https://www.statnews.com/2026/01/19/diabetes-study-bariatric-surgery-better-than-glp-1s/ XX Researchers at the University of California, Riverside have reported for the first time that a father's exposure to microplastics (MPs) can lead to metabolic problems in his children, including diabetes. This is a mouse study, but it looks at a previously unrecognized way in which environmental pollution may influence the health of future generations. MPs are extremely small plastic fragments, measuring less than 5 millimeters, that form as consumer products and industrial materials break down. Metabolic disorders describe a group of conditions that include elevated blood pressure, high blood sugar, and excess body fat, all of which raise the risk of heart disease and diabetes. The team found that female offspring of male mice exposed to MPs were far more prone to metabolic disorders than offspring of unexposed fathers, even though all offspring received the same high fat diet. The research team hopes the findings will guide future investigation into how MPs and even smaller nanoplastics affect human development. https://scitechdaily.com/microplastics-can-rewire-sperm-triggering-diabetes-in-the-next-generation/ XX The FDA has finalized four new recalls for certain lots of Abbott's FreeStyle Libre 3 and FreeStyle Libre 3 Plus sensors due to ongoing safety concerns. We told you about this in November when Abbott says some of its continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensors were providing incorrect low glucose warnings. Internal testing identified the issue—carbon building up in the sensors during the manufacturing process—and determined that approximately 3 million CGM sensors were affected. The sensors were distributed in the United States, Canada and several European countries. When Abbott shared that announcement, the FDA was still reviewing the situation. No recalls had yet been finalized. Now, however, the agency has announced four new Class I recalls. https://cardiovascularbusiness.com/topics/clinical/heart-health/fda-confirms-recalls-abbott-cgm-sensors-new-lawsuit-alleges-company-concealed-information XX Insulet brings back it's U.S. Pod recycling program, now making it available to all U.S. customers. The Pod recycling program, offered at no cost to customers, enables users to request a recycling kit online. This allows them to return their used Omnipods. Insulet then decontaminates the returned Pods before transporting them to a company specializing in recycling for electronics and medical products. Insulet began recycling pilot programs in Mass and California and are rolling it out nationwide. Insulet also has "Pod takeback" programs outside the U.S. in several international markets. These programs enable customers to request a takeback kit by contacting their local customer support team. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/insulet-expands-us-pod-recycling-program/ XX Up next a new resource for a population at three times the risk for diabetes, but without a lot of access to health information. I The first diabetes information website primarily in ASL has launched. The site includes GIFs and videos on diabetes management and an ASL glossary of diabetes-related terms. This is from University of Utah Health – Called Deaf Diabetes Can Together. Deaf and hard of hearing people are at three times higher risk for diabetes, but access to health information in ASL is limited. https://healthcare.utah.edu/newsroom/news/2026/01/first-diabetes-information-website-asl-launches XX Novo Nordisk ended all work on cell therapies, including a Type 1 diabetes program, in October – and now has found a buyer. Aspect has acquired rights to the assets and giving Novo an option to reengage for later-stage development and commercialization. Novo is helping bankroll Aspect's development of the assets, investing in the company and providing research funding. The arrangement gives Novo a chance to profit from the programs down the line. Novo is eligible for royalties and milestone payments on future product sales and, having handed the reins to Aspect for now, can expand its role in later-stage development and commercialization. The integration will involve the transfer of capabilities and expertise from Novo sites in Denmark and the U.S. to Aspect's Canadian operations. https://www.fiercebiotech.com/biotech/novo-nordisk-offloads-diabetes-assets-aspect-amid-cell-therapy-retreat XX XX Lucas Escobar has carved a role by proving that healthcare marketing can be culturally resonant, commercially powerful and deeply human. As director and head of U.S. consumer marketing at Insulet, he has redefined how the Omnipod tubeless insulin pump shows up in culture, transforming a medical device into a symbol of identity, inclusion and empowerment. Under Escobar's leadership, Insulet launched three breakthrough initiatives: Dyasonic: Sound of Strength, a Marvel comic collaboration introducing a superhero who uses Omnipod; The Pod Drop, which turned the sound of a pod change into a celebratory music track; and Omnipod Mango x Pantone, medtech's first color partnership, honoring the vibrancy of the diabetes community. Each blended creativity with purpose while driving results, helping fuel Omnipod's consistent double-digit growth and its position as the most prescribed insulin pump in the U.S. Living with type 1 diabetes himself, Escobar brings lived experience to his work, using storytelling not just to sell, but to make people feel seen. Click here to return to the 2026 MM+M 40 Under 40 homepage. From the January 01, 2026 Issue of MM+M - Medical Marketing and Media https://www.mmm-online.com/40-under-40/40-under-40-lucas-escobar-insulet/ -- FDA approves an update to the prescribing info for Afrezza inhaled insulin. This is a revision to the recommendations for the starting mealtime dosage when patients switch from shots or insulin pumps. This is aimed at healthcare providers - the updated labeling was supported by results from the INHALE-3 trial. The FDA is still considering approval of Afrezza for kids – a decision there expect by summer. https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2026/01/26/3225442/29517/en/MannKind-Announces-FDA-Approval-of-Updated-Afrezza-Label-Providing-Starting-Dose-Guidance-when-Switching-from-Multiple-Daily-Injections-MDI-or-Insulin-Pump-Mealtime-Therapy.html -- UK researchers have developed a calculator to predict whether someone is at risk for type 1 diabetes. They're hoping this helps in screening and in preventing DKA at diagnosis. They used the TEDDY study to create this calculator, which right now is in beta form and only for kids and teens ages 8-18. The current beta form of the calculator asks users to answer questions about four factors necessary to estimate a child's risk of developing type 1 diabetes: age, family history, number of confirmed autoantibodies, and genetic risk score. The calculator has been given regulatory approval as a diagnostic in the U.K., and he's working with a company that's hoping to bring it to the U.S. in the next few months in the form of a home genetic test kit. https://www.healthcentral.com/news/type-1-diabetes/new-calculator-might-help-predict-type-1-diabetes-before-symptoms-appear
Cash flow isn't just spreadsheets—it's survival. In an era of tariffs, currency swings, and supply chain whiplash, small businesses face a paradox: grow fast while everything shifts beneath you. Corinne Boonstra (Brex) and Aharon Naveen (Melio) unpack how payment independence becomes the ultimate competitive advantage.Key takeaways:Tariff volatility forces brands to message consumers directly about pricing pressuresSmall businesses gain agility advantage by switching suppliers faster than competitorsPayment independence decouples cash flow from vendor relationship power dynamicsTechnology stacks need finance-novice friendliness, not just CFO sophisticationKey Quotes:Corinne Boonstra [00:08:11]: "Brands are having to reach out to their consumer base to communicate with them why prices are increasing or using that as kind of a pivotal point of, say, buy these goods now while they're this price."Aharon Naveen [00:12:06]: "Switching vendors is complex. It comes with an operational overhead of different net terms, different currency conversions, different shipping time, different payment acceptance."Aharon Naveen [00:19:45]: "Giving the control back to small business, putting them in a position that they can overcome the relationship dynamic or the power dynamic of a new vendor—that is what technology brings to play."Corinne Boonstra [00:23:10]: "These tools need to be able to be leveraged by your CMO, your head of digital, your founder—whoever is ultimately making these decisions might not have an accounting background."Associated Links:Learn more about BrexLearn more about MelioCheck out Future Commerce on YouTubeCheck out Future Commerce+ for exclusive content and save on merch and printSubscribe to Insiders and The Senses to read more about what we are witnessing in the commerce worldListen to our other episodes of Future CommerceHave any questions or comments about the show?

Ready for proof that letting go creates room for better? We open the new year by celebrating real momentum—Rising Star growth, marathon listening, and fan-favorite ratings—then move straight into a candid story about alignment. When a “forever job” turned toxic, we made the hard call to leave, and that decision sparked a cascade of healthier choices: a mission-driven remote role in cancer care, a routine that actually supports family life, and a dedicated she shed office to protect focus and sanity.We unpack how small, concrete steps build the courage for bigger moves. It began with clearing clutter—cabinets, drawers, expired items—and grew into a deeper audit of values at work. If your day-to-day doesn't match your beliefs, stress compounds. Switching to remote care meant fewer distractions, better privacy, and the priceless ability to catch first steps at home. The final tie to the past was a per diem safety net that only made financial sense on paper. Once released, an unexpected cleaning gig arrived that replaced (and then exceeded) the income while offering something rare: calm. One decision to stop holding what drained us opened space for opportunities that fit.We also reflect on last year's most-downloaded episode—Loving an Addict: A Daughter's Journey—to honor why vulnerable stories resonate. Even with backlash, honest conversations help people feel seen, and that's why they travel. If you're weighing your own change, we share practical steps: brain-dump what's heavy, start with easy wins, set boundaries around misfits, and trust the void you create. Titles and old goals can be comforting, but pruning is how growth happens.If this conversation hits home, tap follow, share it with a friend who needs a nudge, and leave a quick review to help more people find the show.

Key Episode TakeawaysOral Wegovy is real, but it's not “just a pill version of the shot.” Absorption rules, dosing schedules, and patient selection matter a lot more than most headlines suggest.Switching from injections to oral GLP-1s requires a plan. The transition isn't one-size-fits-all, and dose timing, GI tolerance, and expectations need to be managed carefully.Weight regain after stopping GLP-1s is common, but not universal. SURMOUNT-4 data shows large variability, reinforcing that biology, not willpower, drives outcomes.Maintenance matters as much as weight loss. Some patients need continued therapy at lower doses, while others may maintain with lifestyle plus strategic medication use.Stopping abruptly is usually the worst approach. Gradual transitions and realistic long-term strategies reduce rebound weight gain.GLP-1s are chronic disease tools, not short-term fixes. Treating obesity like hypertension or diabetes leads to better outcomes and fewer surprises. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Switching into product can feel like a one-way door, especially if you're already successful in another function. But for Michael, the path from product marketing to product management wasn't a leap of faith, it was a series of low-risk experiments, relationship-driven conversations, and intentional “spikes” he could bring to the PM role.In this episode of Supra Insider, Marc Baselga and Ben Erez sit down with Michael Chen (former PMM at LinkedIn, Slack, and Asana; now a PM at DoorDash) to break down exactly how he made the transition from marketing into product, and what made it work. They unpack the fears people don't say out loud (title cuts, failing publicly, losing social capital), why internal moves are often more about timing + business need than a single ask, and how to frame the whole process as an exploration rather than a high-stakes bet.Michael also shares how his go-to-market and storytelling background has become a real product advantage, especially in areas like pricing & packaging, subscription tiers, and helping customers “see and believe” the value before they ever click buy. If you're a PMM, marketer, or operator who wants to become a builder, or a PM who wants stronger GTM instincts - this episode is a practical blueprint.All episodes of the podcast are also available on Spotify, Apple and YouTube.New to the pod?

In this episode, we are diving deep into your questions from the past week and sharing stories from our most recent training class. We start by addressing the common fear of switching between PLC brands, specifically for those who feel stuck with Mitsubishi knowledge when the industry is calling for Allen Bradley. I explain why mastering the core logic instructions is more important than chasing every brand name for your resume. We also break down a technical deep dive into 4-20mA scaling for tank levels, explaining why adding intermediate steps usually just creates more work for the next technician.Beyond the technical side, we explore the mindset required to make a career pivot into automation. I share some of the feedback from our recent video about starting TW Controls with almost nothing and highlight inspiring stories from our community members who moved from banking and labor roles into successful engineering and systems roles. We also have a bit of fun reviewing the results of last week's visual puzzle and discussing how a technician's job is often just about changing your perspective until the data makes sense.Helping you become a better technician so you will always be in demandNot sure what video to watch next?

Sam Mills is an innovative and wildly creative writer, who has always wanted to publish books. She's written non-fiction books, 'Uneven', 'The Fragments of my Father', and others, also crossover, genre-bending novels like 'Blackout', and 'The Quiddity of Will Self'. She's written for The Guardian, The Independent, the New Humanist and more, along with running 'Dodo Ink', a small indie press that publishes daring and difficult literary fiction.Her new novel is 'The Watermark'. Inspired by 'Inception', it tells the story of Rachel and Jaime, who become trapped by Augustus Fate, a once-lauded novelist, in his latest creation. They must find their way back home through a labyrinthine network of novels, flitting from a harsh Russian Winter, to Victorian Oxford, from a utopian metropolis to an AI-dominated future.We discuss why she likes the romance of being a writer, and that helps her deal with the instability of it. Also, you can hear how she creeps close to the line of burnout, yet knows exactly when to pull back. Sam shares pen opinions, and how she's developed the cafe-writer's sense of when to leave.Get a copy of the book at uk.bookshop.org/shop/writersroutineThis week's episode is sponsored by the 'Quick Books Reviews Podcast', take a listen wherever you get your shows.Support 'Writer's Routine' -patreon.com/writersroutineko-fi.com/writersroutineSubscribe to the newsletter - writersroutine.substack.com@writerspodwritersroutine.com Hosted on Acast.

In this episode of Manufacturing Hub, hosts Vlad Romanov and Dave Griffith welcome back Amos Purdy for a wide ranging conversation that connects plant floor reality with SCADA, MES, and the business decisions that actually fund modernization. Amos shares his path from early software and programming work into industrial automation, including building an industrial automation class and lab, leading MES and SCADA efforts, and working across industries where the pace, constraints, and validation expectations can feel like completely different worlds. If you have ever wondered why a solution that looks obvious on a whiteboard takes months or years to land on a production line, this episode breaks down the human, technical, and financial reasons in plain terms.A big thread throughout the conversation is what it takes to build systems that last. The group digs into hiring and mentoring for Ignition based teams, what backgrounds translate well, and why “hobbyist energy” can be a real superpower in interviews and on the job. The practical takeaway is simple: credentials help you get in the door, but projects help you stand out, especially when you can explain the problem, the architecture, and the tradeoffs you made. The conversation also gets real about legacy plants, where the constraint is often not ambition but risk, ROI, and operational disruption. The group frames modernization as a sequence of targeted moves that improve data availability, reduce cybersecurity exposure, and create a foundation for future applications without betting the entire facility on a massive rip and replace.You will also hear a grounded take on AI in industrial settings. The panel separates what is useful today from what is still hype, and explains why industrial AI needs context, standards, and purpose built training data to be trusted. They connect that to the “data transparency” problem: companies want answers faster, but the hard part is making the data accessible, reliable, and safe in the first place. The episode closes with a discussion on EV and battery manufacturing trends, the reality of global standards and certification, and what the next few years could look like as edge devices, connectivity, and power systems evolve.HostsVlad Romanov is an industrial automation and manufacturing systems expert focused on SCADA, MES, OT data infrastructure, and modernization strategy. He combines electrical engineering depth with an MBA from McGill University to help manufacturers reduce risk, improve reliability, and turn plant data into decision ready information. He leads Joltek, where he delivers assessments, integration roadmaps, and practical upskilling for engineering and operations teams.Dave GriffithManufacturing and automation leader focused on bridging business outcomes with engineering execution, change management, and scalable plant systems.GuestAmos PurdyMBA and electrical engineering background with deep experience across industrial automation, SCADA, MES, and manufacturing intelligence, including leading teams and deployments in both legacy and greenfield environments.Timestamps00:00 Welcome to Manufacturing Hub and why this episode sets up the upcoming modernization theme02:20 Amos Purdy returns and reintroduces his background03:00 From early programming to industrial automation, lab building, and MES leadership09:40 Switching industries and why vertical experience is often overvalued12:40 Hiring and mentoring for Ignition, web skills vs plant floor instincts16:10 AI vs fundamentals, why legacy tech knowledge still matters17:20 Growing teams and how managers should match work to strengths20:10 How candidates stand out, hobby projects and real systems thinking22:50 Technology modernization, data visibility, and cybersecurity as the forcing function31:50 The real bottlenecks, selling ROI, scoping, and avoiding project blowouts37:30 AI readiness in industry, what works today and what is not there yet41:00 EV and battery manufacturing, investment, standards, and what changes on the shop floor50:40 Predictions for the future, edge devices, connectivity, and more data everywhere54:20 Book recommendation and why macro trends matter for engineers56:00 Where to find Amos and what to reach out aboutReferences and links mentionedIgnition by Inductive Automationhttps://inductiveautomation.com/ignitionIgnition SCADA overviewhttps://inductiveautomation.com/scada-softwareInductive University traininghttps://inductiveuniversity.comProveIt Conference 2026 detailshttps://www.proveitconference.comEdison Motorshttps://www.edisonmotors.ca2030: How Today's Biggest Trends Will Collide and Reshape the Future of Everything by Mauro F.

What if the biggest threat to your freedom isn't a bad decision - but a scoreboard you never agreed to? Philosopher C. Thi Nguyen joins Bankless to unpack how modern life quietly turns values into points: likes, GPAs, net worth, rankings, and performance metrics that feel objective - but often flatten what matters most. We explore what games really are, why “gamified” platforms like social media can be uniquely corrosive, and how “value capture” pulls you from meaning into measurable proxies. Then we get practical: playfulness, reflective control, and “value federalism” as ways to use metrics without letting them use you. ---
Shifting away from the animal sacrifices of Tractate Zevahim to grain-offerings and the particulars of offering from grain. The first key aspect of a grain-offering is removing a fistful of grain from it, and the parallel is drawn between the handling of it and that of the blood that was collected from animal sacrifice for the altar. Opening with a new mishnah, of course: If that fistful were taken, but not in the name of the offering being brought - the offering is still valid except for a sin-offering and a "minhah kenaot" - a "jealousy" offering that is brought by the Sotah woman. Also, the various kinds preparation of grain-offerings (all of which would be fit) - a flat griddle fried cake, a more spongy dough, etc. So if the kohen offered one in place of the other, with wrong intent, it's still clear what was done, and it leaves the grain-offering fit because it's identifiable. Note the difference between a grain-offering that is brought because the given offering is supposed to be from grain, as compared to when one is offered for the sake of an animal sacrifice, but when there was some reason that the animal wouldn't be brought.
West Ham have finally get back to winning ways against QPR in the FA Cup, but the victory has been overshadowed by the €35 million transfer bid from Flamengo for Lucas Paquetá. This week on The West Ham Breakdown, Jack and Cal navigate the bittersweet aftermath of a cup win and the impossible choice facing the West Ham board: do you cash in on an talisman who wants a move back to Brazil, or is sanctioning his departure now tantamount to accepting relegation from the Premier League. They also break down the QPR match, analysing the shift to a 4-4-2 and how a front line featuring Taty Castellanos and Pablo Felipe changed the dynamic and discussing what lessons Nuno Espírito Santo could bring into games against Premier League opposition. Plus, a deep dive into the underlying data of our midfield and defence—comparing West Ham's central hubs to our direct relegation rivals to just how our squad stacks up against our opposition. We wrap up by looking at the January transfer window and whether the club should be recruiting for a survival fight or for life in the Championship.

They return to a chaos-filled slate of College Football Playoff drama, NFL insanity, coaching carnivals, and Transfer Portal madness — and yes, absolutely nothing about LSU's Houston bowl game changed the future of planet Earth… or the team. Seriously, that bowl game happened, we promise, and we still don't care.Then it's on to the CFP quarterfinals, where the non-bye teams might actually have the secret cheat code advantage. The boys break down the CFP Semifinal matchups, give their picks against the spread, and argue about who is actually built for January football.And then… the Transfer Portal. The Wild West? Try Wildest West imaginable. NIL deals, surprise exits, commitment flip-flops, and yes — the boys dive into the dark side of the portal nobody wants to talk about but everyone needs to hear.Switching to the NFL, the boys unpack the end of the New Orleans Saints season and explain why Who Dat Nation should actually feel optimistic. The Ravens vs Steelers delivered a Monday Night thriller that may have signed one head coach's unemployment papers in real time. They preview the NFL Playoffs, hand out their ATS picks, and fully embrace the football playoff season.And finally… Black Monday. Head coaches everywhere were fired faster than carts roll on Black Friday. The boys look at which coaches will be reborn, recycled, or rehired immediately.This episode is packed with College Football Playoff breakdowns, NFL playoff predictions, Transfer Portal mayhem, coach firings, Saints optimism, betting picks, and hot takes your group chat isn't ready for. Buckle up — we're back.
The planet Venus is switching sides today – sides of the Sun. It’s crossing behind the Sun as seen from Earth, so it’s moving from the morning sky to the evening sky. But we won’t be able to see it for several weeks. Venus is the second planet from the Sun, while Earth is third. So Venus crosses both behind the Sun and between Earth and the Sun. It switches between Morning Star and Evening Star appearances each time. Each of these crossings happens every 584 days – about 19 and a half months. The planet spends about eight months in both the morning and evening sky, and disappears from view during the crossings. When Venus passes between Earth and the Sun, it’s closest to us, so it moves across the sky quickly – it’s hidden in the Sun’s glare for only a few days. When it’s behind the Sun, it’s farthest – about 160 million miles. Because of the relative motions of Earth and Venus, it moves across the sky quite slowly. So it remains hidden in the light for three months or so. Depending on your location, Venus could emerge as the Evening Star as early as mid- to late February. It’ll be quite low in the twilight, so it won’t be easy to find. The planet will climb into better view in early March. Venus will reign over the evening sky until October, when it will vanish in the sunlight as it once again switches sides. Tomorrow: slowing down the stellar birth rate. Script by Damond Benningfield
