The rise of Agentic agents in military headquarters is a foregone conclusion. Understanding how they perform, where they may hallucinate answers, and their requirement for credible and reliable data sets sit at the heart of their utility. Henrik Sommer, a retired Brigadier General with the Danish military, explains some of the potential, vulnerabilities, weaknesses, and opportunities that AI can provide, including from Systematic's new Wingman AI tool, something already embedded in the Sitaware system. The importance of coders, teachers and trainers of algorithms, and how we prompt AI come out as clear markers in this conversation, as does the core question: how much should we trust AI in the military?

7. The Devastating Aftermath The firebombing results in 105,000 deaths, surpassing the destruction in Dresden and Hamburg. LeMay's success validates his tactical gamble, leading to the systematic burning of other Japanese cities throughout the summer. Scott notes that this conventional campaign had already crippled Japan before the atomic bomb. (16)1946 TOKYO
For preterm prelabor rupture of membranes, the standard protocol for latency augmentation has remained IV amoxicillin and erythromycin for 2 days, followed by oral amoxicillin and erythromycin for 5 additional days. Nonetheless, azithromycinhas largely replaced erythromycin in PPROM management due to supply shortages and tolerability. Previous retrospective studies (2019) have found no difference in latency between single-dose and multi-day azithromycin regimens, but these studies did not measure actual drugconcentrations at the site of action. In that 2019 retrospective study, there was also no difference in incidence of chorioamnionitis, or neonatal outcomes when comparing different dosing regimens of the azithromycin with erythromycin, with the exception of respiratory distress syndrome being more common in the 5 day azithromycin group. However, a 2024 single-center,retrospective study from Annals Pharmacotherapy found significantly higher rates of histologic chorioamnionitis with single-dose azithromycin compared to 5-day regimens(62.6% vs 46.4%, P=0.006), despite similar latency periods. So, it's complicated. A 2025 systematic review of international guidelines found that 6 out of 17 clinical practice guidelines acknowledged uncertainty about the optimal antibiotic regimen. This was published in the AJOG. In this episode, wewill review a new publication from March 2026 in the AJOG which sought to compare the pharmacokinetic parameters of 1 g once vs 500 mg daily dosing of azithromycin in the setting of preterm prelabor rupture of membranes and simulate various dosing regimens to identify the optimal regimen that maintains amniotic fluid concentration of azithromycin over the minimum inhibitory concentration of common GU pathogens associated with intraamniotic infection orinflammation. But there is a BIG limitation. Listen in for details. 1. Navathe R, Schoen CN, Heidari P, Bachilova S, Ward A, Tepper J, Visintainer P, Hoffman MK, Smith S, Berghella V, Roman A.

Welcome to the In The Money Podcast by Zerodha, where we bring you the sharpest minds from around the world in trading, markets, and active investing. In this episode, we sit down with Rob Carver, systematic futures trader, former hedge fund manager, and one of the most practical voices in quantitative and rules-based investing. Rob spent years building and managing systematic macro and fixed income strategies at AHL, one of the world's largest systematic hedge funds, after earlier roles in derivatives trading at Barclays and economic research at CEPR. Today, he trades his own capital, writes extensively on systematic investing, and teaches systematic trading strategies to finance students. In this wide-ranging conversation, Rob shares how real market understanding develops slowly over time, why trading your own money feels very different from managing institutional capital, and why starting simple is still the best advice for most traders. We dive deep into trend following, mean reversion, risk management, diversification, drawdowns, and the dangers of over-optimizing systems. We also discuss how the post-GFC world changed trend behavior, how to evaluate strategy performance beyond simple metrics, and Rob's strong views on AI, LLMs, and automation in trading systems.

In this solo episode, Jonah Babins pulls back the curtain on the eight-month hiatus of Discourse in Magic. Since August 2025, the podcast feed has been quiet, leading many listeners to reach out and check-in. Today, Jonah is back to explain his disappearance, share a major business epiphany from his recent travels, and lay out the future of the show. The truth is, Jonah hasn't been resting; he's been on a whirlwind journey across the globe. From Auckland to Melbourne, and Pennsylvania to Denver, Jonah has been physically traveling to visit members of his Magic Business Mastermind. He shares the “insane” rule he follows: when a magician has worked with him for 18 months, he flies out to see them on his own dime. This commitment, combined with a heavy November/December gigging season, made recording high-quality episodes nearly impossible—until now. What You'll Learn in This Episode The Travel Log: Why Jonah spent 30 of the first 45 days of 2026 on the road and what it's like managing a 60-person mastermind while remaining a full-time performer. The Australia Epiphany: How being in a completely different time zone forced Jonah to embrace asynchronous work and delegation. Content vs. Systems: Why Jonah is moving away from the “hamster wheel” of social media content and toward lead generation that doesn’t require daily manual output. The “Easy” Question: Inspired by Tim Ferriss, Jonah asks: “What would this look like if it were easy?” and applies it to your magic bookings. The Viral Trap: The reality of getting 3.4 million views on a Reel and why it resulted in zero inquiries and one death threat. Lead Gen: Stop Dancing, Start Scaling Jonah breaks down the major difference between Daily Output lead gen and Systematic lead gen: The Content Trap: Posting 3+ times a day is a full-time job. Unless you love shooting and editing, it might not be the best use of your time as a magician. The Evergreen Power of SEO: A single well-written blog post can rank for years, providing value long after an Instagram post has disappeared from the feed. Automation: How tools like ads and cold email software allow you to “press play” and generate leads while you focus on your craft. Mentions & Links Follow Jonah on Instagram: @discourseinmagic for daily tips and reels. The Newsletter: Join the community to get deep-dive emails several times a week. Recommended Reading: The 4-Hour Workweek (or any works) by Tim Ferriss. See Jonah Live: performing at the Chicago Magic Lounge (654 Club) this March. Ready to grow your magic business the “Easy Way”?

In this episode of The Derivative, Jeff Malec is joined by Patrick Kazley of OneRiver explore how long volatility, convexity, trend following, and systematic macro can be combined in a capital‑efficient way to improve equity compounding and protect portfolios from major drawdowns. They discuss crisis “shapes,” why time-based rebalancing often beats intuitive drawdown triggers, how changing volatility microstructure (zero‑DTE, single-name vol, dispersion) creates new opportunities, and why behavioral biases keep most investors under-allocated to positively skewed defensive strategies. Patrick ties it all together with vivid metaphors — from F1 cars and soup vs. salad to sumo wrestlers and the beer boot — and explains how One River's acquisition of a European alternatives/QIS team fits into their total-portfolio approach..… SEND IT!Chapters:00:00-02:21 = Intro02:22-12:33= From AQR to One River – Patrick's Background and the Case for Systematic Risk Mitigation12:34-28:07 = Engines and Brakes – Equity Beta, Skew, and the Power of Convexity28:08-43:55= Crisis Types, Trend Following, and Building a Total Portfolio Defense43:56-1:03:04= Visualizing Risk – Crisis Shapes, Rebalancing, and the Math of Convexity1:03:05-1:16:36= Metaphors, Markets, and M&A – From F1 Cars to Das Boot and One River's Next Phase1:16:37-1:28:37= Soup vs. Salad – Total Portfolio Thinking and the Future of One RiverFrom the Episode:Blog post: A Short History of Market-Moving Middle East ConflictsOneRiver's WhitepapersFollow along with Patrick and OneRiver on LinkedIn and make sure to check out OneRiver's website www.oneriveram.comDon't forget to subscribe toThe Derivative, follow us on Twitter at@rcmAlts and our host Jeff at@AttainCap2, orLinkedIn , andFacebook, andsign-up for our blog digest.Disclaimer: This podcast is provided for informational purposes only and should not be relied upon as legal, business, or tax advice.

High levels of homocysteine have been linked to brain atrophy and dementia. Taking B vitamins may be a low-cost way to help protect brain health.However, past research reviews have shown mixed results, and it's not clear why the findings have been inconsistent. The overall quality of the evidence has also not been carefully evaluated.In this episode, Editor-in-Chief Douglas Taren talks with Ross Grant, co-author of the featured article. They discuss the results of his team's systematic review and meta-analysis, which looked at how B vitamin supplements affect overall cognitive function in older adults.

In this episode, we (Mark Raffler and Statia Davey) sit down with Dr. Sharon Vaughn, the Manuel J. Justice Endowed Chair in Education and Executive Director of the Meadows Center for Preventing Educational Risk at the University of Texas at Austin. Drawing on her extensive work with the Michigan Dyslexia Research Network, Dr. Vaughn shares her deep expertise on how we can best meet the needs of all learners under Michigan's K-12 Literacy and Dyslexia Law. This conversation moves past the buzzwords to look at the heart of structured literacy, the evolving nature of the science of reading, and practical ways to support students who struggle with decoding.Here are some highlights from our conversation:Moving Beyond Dyslexia Myths: Dr. Vaughn helps us understand that dyslexia isn't simply about seeing letters or words backwards in fact, many young children naturally reverse letters as they learn positionality. Instead, educators should look for significant hurdles in phonological awareness, slow acquisition of word reading, and extreme challenges with spelling.The Science of Reading as an Evolving Field: Much like the science of nutrition, our understanding of how the brain learns to read is constantly refined by new research. Dr. Vaughn emphasizes that while some students seem to learn to read "automatically," every student benefits from the explicit, systematic, and organized instruction that is absolutely essential for students with dyslexia.Structured Literacy is for Everyone: Dr. Vaughn explains that structured literacy isn't just a specialized tool for students with dyslexia, it is a comprehensive "umbrella" that benefits every learner in the classroom. By integrating phonics and fluency with the ultimate goal of comprehension, educators can use a single, cohesive framework. She breaks down the "I do, we do, you do" sequence, showing how this explicit model gives every student the opportunity to practice new skills while receiving the immediate, supportive feedback they need to succeedThe "Secret Sauce" of Instructional Success: One of the most powerful things a teacher can do is use data-based instruction. Dr. Vaughn encourages educators to be "data processing machines" who use screenings, progress monitoring, and everyday observations to refine their teaching and provide quick, targeted support in those small classroom moments.We closed the interview by asking for Dr. Vaughn's top resource picks. She highlighted the wealth of materials available at the Meadows Center (meadowscenter.org) and spoke highly of the book Structured Literacy Interventions Teaching Students with Reading Difficulties, Grades K-6, by Louise Spear-Swerling describing it as a valuable and accessible resource for teachers.Check out our podcast resource page for all the links!

When Dave Mabe backtested his strategy, it outperformed his own discretionary trading — and changed how he approached everything. In this episode, we discuss gapping breakouts, expectancy, systematic trading, drawdowns, and the reality gap between backtests and live execution. A practical conversation for traders serious about building durable edge. In this episode, we explore: · How Dave got introduced to markets: From early exposure to investing through his family to actively seeking more control over his capital and moving from swing trading into day trading. · Why rules matter: The transition from discretionary decisions to systematic frameworks — and why trading without a process is a fast path to inconsistency. · Backtesting as a “superpower”: What backtesting really does for strategy development and confidence in your edge. · Reconciling backtests with real life: Practical realities of execution, slippage, and market structure — and how to build a feedback loop so your live results get closer to your imulations. · Drawdowns and mindset: How to handle periods where a strategy doesn't behave as expected, and why many traders quit in drawdowns rather than at all-time highs. · Scaling a trading business: The difference between scaling size versus scaling breadth — and why uncorrelated strategies matter. · Practical first step for systematic traders: How to start adding structure to your trading with backtesting, even if you're not a programmer. About the guest: Dave has been a professional trader and technologist for over two decades. As a former CTO of Trade-Ideas, he has unique experience at the intersection of algorithm design, real-time market data, and automated execution. Outside trading, he writes a popular daily newsletter on backtesting and systematic strategy development, and hosts the Line Your Own Pockets podcast focused on systematic approaches to markets.

Send a textEpisode #271 – February 28, 2026 – “Crawling through a systematic maze…And it pains to demise…Pain in our eyes…” - D'Angelo and The Vanguard I am your host, Neo Griot, and this is Episode 271 of the Rational Black Thought Podcast. This week's title comes from D'Angelo and The Vanguard's Black Messiah and the song Charade: “Crawling through a systematic maze…And it pains to demise…Pain in our eyes…Strain of drownin', wading into your lies…Degradation so loud that you can't hear the sound of our cries (doo, doo)…All the dreamers have gone to the side of the road which we will lay on…Inundated by media, virtual mind fucks in streams” Because that's what power feels like when it's working the way it was designed to work: not as a clean, honest confrontation, but as a system of traps, delays, distractions, and narratives meant to keep you disoriented while someone else moves resources, writes rules, and calls it “order.” And that's the theme of the episode: how reality gets distorted on purpose. Not just through propaganda, but through the basic machinery of the human mind. Belief isn't simply something we “choose.” It gets built out of fear, identity, repetition, and social belonging. And once you understand that, you stop treating public life like a debate club and start recognizing it as a contest over perception. The New Republic used a phrase that captures the moment with brutal accuracy, calling Trump a “malicious buffoon.” The danger isn't that he's some mastermind. The danger is that incompetence paired with cruelty still destroys lives when it's backed by institutions, media ecosystems, and people willing to clap for the demolition. So this week, we're staying focused on one question: Who is shaping what people believe, and what is that belief being used to justify?

Systematic credit investing has room to expand into leveraged loans, structured finance and emerging markets, according to Acadian Asset Management. “You could take an issuer approach to do security selection in the leveraged loan market,” Scott Richardson, the $178 billion firm’s director of systematic credit tells Bloomberg News’ James Crombie and Bloomberg Intelligence’s Sam Geier in this episode of the Credit Edge podcast. “That could be extended to structured things that sit on top of that, CLOs and the like,” says Richardson, referring to collateralized loan obligations. They also discuss alternative data, private credit and how to build a portfolio “without giving a liver and a kidney to Goldman Sachs along the way.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the progesterone series, Dr. Brendan McCarthy — Chief Medical Officer of Protea Medical Center in Tempe, Arizona — explores the often misunderstood relationship between progesterone, estrogen, and breast health. For decades, women have been taught to fear their breasts and fear hormones. While awareness matters, fear is disempowering — and it has left many women confused about what's actually happening in their bodies. In this episode, we discuss: Why breast tissue is dynamic, not static How estrogen stimulates growth and progesterone restores balance The role of progesterone in breast tissue maturation and architecture Why dense or fibrocystic breasts often reflect unopposed estrogen How restoring ovulation and progesterone can reduce breast pain and density in some women The difference between natural progesterone vs synthetic progestins Where the fear around progesterone and breast cancer really came from Progesterone is not something to fear — it is a hormone of organization, balance, and maturation. Understanding how it works allows women to approach breast health with clarity instead of anxiety.
Does the word "Theology" intimidate you? You aren't alone. If you have ever wondered how to understand the bible for beginners without getting overwhelmed by big words or massive books, this episode is exactly what you need.Many Christians believe theology is reserved for pastors with advanced degrees, but that couldn't be further from the truth. In this video, we reveal that "doing theology" is simply about knowing God better. We break down the five essential types of theology Micro, Biblical, Systematic, Historical, and Pastoral and show you how they are actually simple habits you can start today.Whether you are trying to understand a single verse (Exegesis) or grasp the big picture of God's story (Biblical Theology), these five methods will give you a roadmap. We also discuss why looking at church history matters and how to apply these truths to your daily life (Pastoral Theology).Stop feeling unqualified to read Scripture!

Systematic and Expository Monday Bible Study for Monday 2nd Febuary 2026 at the Deeper Life Bible Church Uyo, Akwa-Ibom State, Nigeria By Pastor W.F Kumuyi
White privilege has emerged at the forefront of conversations about race and equity, but what does it really mean when we consider it as a political frame? In this first episode of our series, we're diving deep into the multifaceted nature of white privilege, a term that not only reveals systemic inequalities but also challenges us to rethink our understanding of merit and fairness in society.The story of white privilege isn't new; it gained ground particularly in the late 20th century thanks to influential scholars like Peggy McIntosh. Her iconic 1988 essay, "White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack," brilliantly illuminated how unearned advantages are often taken for granted by white individuals. Imagine starting a race with a ten-second head start—this metaphor perfectly encapsulates what McIntosh sought to unveil: the invisible systems that allow white individuals to advance more easily in society.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/racism-white-privilege-in-america--4473713/support.
Let's dive deep into how the notion of "white privilege" has evolved into a key interpretive frame in our society. The term was popularized back in 1988 by Peggy McIntosh, a professor at Wellesley College. In her groundbreaking essay, she identified 46 different ways that white individuals benefit from unearned advantages in their everyday lives. This was a striking revelation, shedding light on the often invisible privileges that accompany being white in Western societies. Before McIntosh, voices like W.E.B. Du Bois introduced ideas about racial superiority as early as the 1930s, describing what he called a "psychological wage" for white workers. This notion hinted at a deeper understanding of how race and class intersect, setting the stage for future discussions.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/racism-white-privilege-in-america--4473713/support.
Let's dive right in and explore why the concept of white privilege has cemented itself in our conversations around race and inequality. A big part of this shift can be traced back to how media and popular culture have shaped public ideas and perceptions.Take MTV's documentary "White People," released in 2015. This film, directed by Jose Antonio Vargas, focused specifically on the experiences of white millennials, sparking dialogues across the nation about what it means to live with privilege. It opened a window into personal stories and challenged viewers, especially young white people, to examine biases they might not have previously considered. By putting a spotlight on something that many people felt uncomfortable discussing, it stimulated conversations that many communities needed to have.Then there's comedian Chelsea Handler, who took a unique approach in her 2019 Netflix documentary, "Hello, Privilege. It's Me, Chelsea." Handler used her humor and personal narrative to dissect the nuances of white privilege in her own life. The documentary resonated widely, pushing the conversation into the realm of entertainment where many might not expect to encounter such serious topics. It illustrated how media can not only entertain but also educate and inform.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/racism-white-privilege-in-america--4473713/support.
Unexplained infertility, PMS, and low progesterone are often dismissed when labs fall “within range.” In this episode, Dr. Brendan McCarthy explains why prolactin may be the missing piece. Learn how mildly elevated prolactin can suppress ovulation, lower progesterone, and impact fertility—even when labs appear normal. We also discuss common causes, symptoms, the role of stress and medications, and why diet (including gluten sensitivity) may matter. This episode focuses on precision medicine, not fear—helping you understand what standard reference ranges often miss. Citations: Research — Prolactin and Breast Cancer Risk Below are key epidemiologic and review papers that inform the discussion in this episode regarding prolactin and breast biology. These studies look at associations, not simple cause-and-effect relationships, and help explain why prolactin shows up in breast health conversations. Meta-analysis: circulating prolactin and breast cancer risk Wang M, et al. (2016). Plasma prolactin and breast cancer risk: a meta-analysis. Cancer Causes & Control. This meta-analysis pooled data from multiple observational studies comparing women with higher versus lower circulating prolactin levels. Across studies, higher prolactin levels were associated with a modest but statistically significant increase in breast cancer risk. The association was most evident in postmenopausal women and in hormone-receptor–positive tumors. This helps explain why prolactin is considered a relevant growth signal in breast tissue rather than just a “lactation hormone.” Systematic review and meta-analysis: prolactin levels across breast cancer cohorts Aranha AF, et al. (2022). Impact of prolactin levels in breast cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Endocrine-Related Cancer. This more recent systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated circulating prolactin levels across breast cancer populations and control groups. Elevated prolactin levels were associated with higher breast cancer occurrence, with stronger associations seen in invasive cancers and hormone-receptor–positive disease. This paper adds weight to the idea that prolactin participates in breast biology in ways that matter clinically, even outside of pregnancy and breastfeeding. Prospective cohort studies: prolactin measured before diagnosis Tworoger SS, et al. (2004; 2006). Prospective analyses from large cohorts including the Nurses' Health Study. In these studies, prolactin was measured years before any breast cancer diagnosis. Women with higher prolactin levels had a higher likelihood of developing breast cancer later, particularly estrogen-receptor–positive tumors in postmenopausal women. Because prolactin was measured before cancer developed, these studies help clarify timing and reduce the concern that elevated prolactin is simply a consequence of disease. Mechanistic context (supportive background) Experimental and translational studies show that prolactin receptor signaling influences mammary epithelial cell growth, differentiation, and interaction with estrogen signaling pathways. This provides a biologic backdrop for why epidemiologic associations between prolactin and breast cancer risk keep appearing across different study designs. How to read this as a clinician or patient These data do not mean prolactin “causes” breast cancer in a simple or deterministic way. What they do show is that prolactin is an active hormone in breast tissue, and chronically higher levels are consistently associated with changes in breast risk profiles across large populations. That's why prolactin deserves attention in conversations about fertility, breast symptoms, and long-term hormonal signaling—not fear, and not dismissal. Dr. Brendan McCarthy is the founder and Chief Medical Officer of Protea Medical Center in Arizona. With over two decades of experience, he's helped thousands of patients navigate hormonal imbalances using bioidentical HRT, nutrition, and root-cause medicine. He's also taught and mentored other physicians on integrative approaches to hormone therapy, weight loss, fertility, and more. If you're ready to take your health seriously, this podcast is a great place to start.
We're long overdue for this conversation. In this episode, Chris and Courtney sit down with Dr. Inês Varela-Silva, Reader in Biocultural Studies and Community Health at Loughborough University, to talk about methods and why evidence synthesis matters for equity in science. We trace her path into anthropology and human biology before diving into the SCRIBE (SystematiC Reviews In Biocultural rEsearch) toolkit, recently published in the American Journal of Human Biology. We explore why biocultural research has historically underused systematic reviews and how excluding biocultural factors can bias evidence against Indigenous, minority, and small-scale populations. We also discuss SCRIBE's six-step framework and the value of tools like Notion and Trello, alongside reflections on The Maya Project. ------------------------------ Find the work discussed in this episode: Varela-Silva, M.

Our Head of India Research and Chief India Equity Strategist Ridham Desai addresses a big debate: whether India stocks are poised for a recovery after underperforming other emerging markets in 2025.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Ridham Desai, Morgan Stanley's Head of India Research and Chief India Equity Strategist. Today: one of the big debates in Asia this year. Can Indian equities recover their strength after a historic slump? It's Wednesday, January 14th, at 2pm in Mumbai.India ended 2025 with its weakest relative performance versus Emerging Markets since 1994. That's right – three decades. The reason? A mid-cycle growth slowdown, rich valuations, and the fact that India doesn't offer an explicit AI-related trade. Add in delays on the U.S. trade deal plus India's low beta in a global bull market, and you've got a recipe for underperformance. But we think the tide is turning. Valuations have corrected meaningfully and likely bottomed out in October. More importantly, India's growth cycle looks poised for a positive surprise. Policymakers have gone all-in on reflation, deploying a mix of aggressive measures to revive momentum. The Reserve Bank of India has cut rates, reduced the cash reserve ratio, infused liquidity and gone in for bank deregulation which are adding fuel to the fire. The government has front-loaded capital expenditure and announced a massive ₹1.5 trillion GST rate cut to encourage people to spend more on goods and services. All these moves – along with improving ties between India and China, Beijing's new anti-involution push, and the possibility of a major India-U.S. trade deal – are laying solid groundwork for recovery. Put simply, India's once-tough, post-pandemic economic stance is easing up. And that could open the door to a major shift in how investors see the market going forward. India's macro backdrop is also evolving. The reduced reliance on oil in GDP, the growing share of exports, especially in services, the ongoing fiscal consolidation – all indicate a smaller saving imbalance. This means structurally lower interest rates ahead. And flexible inflation targeting, and volatility in both inflation and interest rates should continue to decline. High growth with low volatility and falling rates should translate into higher P/E multiples. And don't forget the household balance sheet shift toward equities. Systematic flows into domestic mutual funds are evidence of this trend. Investor concerns are understandable, but let's keep them in context. More companies raising capital often signals growth ahead, not just high valuations. Domestic investment remains strong, thanks to a steady shift toward equities. India's premium valuations reflect solid long-term growth prospects and expectations for lower real interest rates. On the policy front, efforts to boost growth are robust, and we see real growth potentially surprising to the upside. While India isn't a leader in AI yet, the upcoming AI summit in February could help address concerns about India's role in tech innovation. What key catalysts should investors watch? Look for positive earnings revisions, further dovishness from the RBI, reforms from the government including privatization, and the long-awaited U.S. trade deal. But also keep an eye on key risks – slower global growth and shifting geopolitical dynamics. So, after fifteen months of relative pain, could India be on the cusp of a structural re-rating? If growth surprises to the upside – and we think it will – the story of 2026 may just be India's comeback. Stay tuned.Thanks for listening.

The Apostle Paul wrote his letter to the Galatians to expose false teaching, for he knew the gospel was at stake.
