You probably ate something today with high protein printed across the front of it, and there is a good chance it did almost nothing for your skeletal muscle. There is no meaningful enforcement standard for what the front of a package is allowed to promise, and the research points to a per meal threshold most of these products do not come close to touching. Here is the number, the five myths that have to come off the table first, and how to read any label in about five seconds.Thank you to our sponsors:Egglife - Find egglife wraps chillin' in the fridge at Aldi, Whole Foods, Kroger, Target, Walmart & more - Visit https://bit.ly/4yxBs5l to find a retailer near you,Timeline - up to 20% off when you subscribe and save at https://bit.ly/4cNXeJq Bon Charge - Save 15% at https://bit.ly/3UsB1KI with code DRLYON Explore More from Dr. Gabrielle LyonPremium Podcast Subscription: Ad-free episodes, key takeaway summaries, exclusive Q&A, and behind-the-scenes content https://foreverstrong.supercast.comWeekly newsletter: Recipes, podcast updates, and practical weekly insights https://drgabriellelyon.com/sign-up/Apply to become a patient: Personalized care with Dr. Lyon's clinical team https://drgabriellelyon.com/new-patient-inquiry/Connect with Dr. Gabrielle Lyon:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drgabriellelyon/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drgabriellelyon X (Twitter): https://x.com/drgabriellelyonFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/doctorgabriellelyon Chapters00:00 - Introduction: what a high protein label promises01:03 - Protein-ification and the labeling gap04:10 - Myth 1: protein and kidney function06:01 - Myth 2: the 0.8 gram RDA07:04 - Nitrogen balance and the 2026 guideline change07:45 - Where the clinical target lands above the RDA08:43 - Myth 3: acid ash and bone density11:01 - Myth 4: leucine and the per meal threshold12:12 - Four product categories in your pantry14:44 - The 25 to 30 gram complete protein rule15:08 - Myth 5: daily total versus per meal distributionIf you found this episode valuable, share it with someone who would benefit from it.Disclaimers: This episode includes paid sponsorships.

The restoration and rerelease of Unzipped—the ur-fashion documentary— with Janus this September has had the Vogue office abuzz for months. Ahead of its run in theaters The Run-Through co-host Nicole Phelps—who says the film was her “gateway drug to fashion,” met with inimitably charming Isaac Mizrahi, designer, performer, the film's star and since June 2026, Target's first Creative Director at Large, to talk supermodels, and not mixing work with love—or Ambien. “It was a very good moment in fashion,” conjectures Mizrahi about the continuing draw of the film. “I bet if you had substituted some other fabulous, funny people in that movie, it would've been good. Mm. You know? It was just a good moment. But specifically in my oeuvre, it was almost inevitable to tell a story of that kind, because I don't know if their fittings were as hilarious as my fittings, you know? … I think that's another thing, the interaction of [those women, those supermodels, and these designers. You know, it really was, it was photogenic. You know, the camera really loved this subject.” Nonetheless, Mizrahi has more of a bird's-eye perspective on the impact of Unzipped than most of the rest of the world. “So as to Unzipped and it changing my life, you know, I don't really feel it changed my life,” he said. Mizrahi identifies his transition from yeshiva to the Performing Arts High School as one of the tipping points in his life. Another was landing a job at Perry Ellis. “I have to tell you, my dear, that was an incredibly inspiring place and it would've changed anybody.” Unzipped had a similar effect on fashion documentaries, setting a bar that has rarely been reached since. The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture. Hosted by Chloe Malle, Head of Editorial Content, Vogue U.S.; Chioma Nnadi, Head of British Vogue; and Nicole Phelps, Director of Vogue Runway, each episode features the latest fashion news and exclusive designer and celebrity interviews.

Melissa Blake, with Bates Landscaping, looks at a laminated sheet listing her dream clients, and she carries it with her every single day. In Part 1 of this conversation, host Chris Psencik and Melissa dig into what commercial maintenance business development actually looks like on the ground. It's time-blocking your week into create, advance, and close new clients, and using LinkedIn to get ahead of relationship changes. She also shares how she knows when to walk away from a prospect and when to never give up. This is a real, specific, steal-it-today conversation about the front half of the commercial sales cycle. THE BIG IDEA: A Laminated List, a Blocked Calendar, and a CRM: The Unglamorous Infrastructure Behind Elite Commercial Sales KEY MOMENTS: [02:00] Bates Landscaping: Chester Springs PA, HOA-Focused, Commercial Snow and Maintenance [06:30] What You Don't See: The 3, 6, and 12 Months of Work Behind Every New Contract [09:00] The Laminated Target List: How Melissa Starts Every Year With a Strategic Hit List [12:00] When to Slow Down — and When to Never Give Up on a Prospect [17:00] Vetting Prospects: How to Build a Target List That Matches the Company Vision [20:30] Handling Inbound Leads That Aren't the Right Fit — Professionally [24:30] Getting in Front of Decision-Makers Before You Submit [25:30] "Compared to What?" — How Melissa Responds When She's the High Bid Questions we answer. What does a commercial maintenance business developer actually do with their time each week? What is the create / advance / close framework and how do I apply it to my own schedule? How do I build an annual target list — and how specific should it be? What's the best way to track prospects, touchpoints, and pipeline without losing the personal touch? How do I know when to keep pursuing a prospect and when to pull back? What's the difference between a hunter and a farmer — and why does it matter for how I structure my team? Should my account managers also be developing new business? Where's the line? How do I qualify inbound leads without burning bridges with prospects who aren't the right fit? How do I make sure I'm not just another line on the page when responding to an RFP? What's the right way to respond when a prospect tells you you're the highest bid?
CPG disruptors have entered just about every legacy category over the past few years in hopes of capturing bored consumers looking for more interesting everyday products. We've seen this play out across dandruff shampoo, toothpaste and mouth wash, supplements, sunscreen, and, most recently, the allergy aisle. “We did a ton of consumer work up front, probably too much, pulling research reports, data and our own survey of 600 consumers, and what we realized was that there is a huge experience and efficacy gap,” Loren Lucree, the CEO and founder of 9-month-old allergy-care brand Wizard Wellness, told Glossy. “[We found that] only 7% were loyal to their current solutions, which is bananas. … [The] lesson is nobody's writing love letters to Flonase or Zyrtec.” Lucree is a beauty industry veteran formulator and executive. His CV includes Unilever and Estée Lauder brands. “One morning I woke up and told my poor husband, ‘I have to do this,' … because somebody else will do it if I don't,” Lucree said. “[I thought], ‘I have this amazing beauty network around me, and now's the time'.” Lucree secured $7 million in funding from True Beauty Ventures, G9 Ventures, Able Partners and The Venture Collective to launch Wizard Wellness via a DTC model in January. The brand is built on a beauty industry playbook, including cleaner ingredients, clear positioning, clinical testing, a dynamic OOH advertising funnel and social-first marketing. Now, just nine months post-launch, Wizard Wellness has entered CVS, Walmart and, as of Monday, Target stores. Glossy West Coast correspondent Lexy Lebsack sat down with Lucree to learn firsthand how he took on allergy incumbents and what it'll take to become a leader in the space.
Your smartwatch tracks your steps and your pulse. Soon, devices like it could track your brainwaves, and even tell if the wearer is neurodivergent. Brain-monitoring wearables that purport to help with focus, sleep, and even ADHD are already being sold online. This is called “neurotechnology,” and it's a fast-moving market with almost zero regulation. Stephen Damianos of the Neurorights Foundation joins us to unpack the potential promise — and dangers — of this emerging technology. We discuss the unique risks it poses for neurodivergent people, and why your brain data might be the most valuable, and least protected, information you own.

Jeff Holden was once a kid watching his father get laid off during a department cut, realizing early on that he never wanted to be at the mercy of unpredictable market shifts, he wanted full control over his own destiny. Today, as the Head of Trader Development at SMB Capital, Jeff has transformed that drive into a career of identifying, recruiting, and mentoring prop traders into multi-million dollar, seven- and eight-figure performers. After starting as an independent trader working to find his own way, Jeff built his philosophy around structure, baseline consistency, and rigorous risk allocation. Rather than relying on guesswork or emotional "gut feelings," Jeff developed actionable frameworks like the "ASET" protocol to help traders systematically identify edge, manage risk, and scale capital. In this conversation, Jeff pulls back the curtain on how top-tier prop traders are actually built from the ground up. He breaks down the mechanics of price action and tape reading, why scalping serves as the ultimate baseline foundation, and how traders can bridge the gap between steady baseline income and aggressively swinging the bat on high-conviction A+ setups. In this episode, we explore:• How Jeff Holden develops high-performing 7- and 8-figure prop traders at SMB Capital• Jeff's personal backstory and how a childhood lesson in market volatility shaped his trading philosophy• Why beginner and developing traders must focus on building a consistent baseline strategy first• The "ASET" Protocol: Allocation, Stop, Entry, and Target framework explained• Matching your individual personality and trading psychology to the right archetype and strategy• Jeff's perspective on trading discipline, daily report cards, and long-term risk management About Jeff Holden:Jeff Holden is the Head of Trader Development at SMB Capital, one of the world's premier proprietary trading firms. Having started his career as an independent trader working to find his own way in the markets, Jeff now specializes in identifying talent, building desk playbooks, and guiding developing traders along the path to consistent, seven- and eight-figure profitability. He is known for his structured, data-driven approach to risk allocation, tape reading, and team trading dynamics.

Today's Headlines: The US launched strikes in the Strait of Hormuz for the second day in a row without saying what they were targeting, two more oil tankers got attacked, and JD Vance's Yale buddy Dan Driscoll quit as Army Secretary after Hegseth got paranoid about their friendship and blocked Driscoll's plans to modernize the Army for drone warfare — so the guy who wanted to prepare for the future of war got pushed out by the guy who built himself a salon at the Pentagon. On the financial beat, Global bond markets are selling off, US interest rates just hit a 20-year high, and what that means for you personally is that your credit card, mortgage, and car loan just got more expensive — thanks in part to the Iran war, oil prices, and everyone powerful being addicted to borrowing money. In other disturbing news, the Supreme Court ruled 5-4 that Trump can keep building his ballroom-bunker, with Roberts writing in his dissent that it's probably illegal but the lawsuit didn't have standing. A USPS whistleblower came forward saying the Post Office defied court orders while building Trump's mail ballot system, the voter list portal states need to use doesn't exist yet, and tens of thousands of ballots could get rejected as a result — Democrats responded with a strongly worded letter to the Post Office, yep, the Post Office. In things we can no longer safely ingest news, Horizon Organic chocolate milk was recalled across Walmart, Target, and Whole Foods for early spoilage, which is annoying but at least it's not glass. And finally, Republicans invented a "midterm convention" in Dallas where a photo with Trump costs $88,000 and a photo with JD Vance costs $35,000.

Prime retail space is hard to find. How does solidcore keep growing?Solidcore is scaling fast. The boutique fitness brand will have approximately 190 locations open by the end of the month, up from about 85 when Josh Rainey joined the company. It expects to reach roughly 240 locations by the end of next year.The demand is there. The real estate is the harder part.Josh, senior director of real estate and growth at solidcore, joins Chris Ressa to explain what it takes to expand a national fitness concept when nearly every growing retailer wants the same 1,800- to 3,000-square-foot spaces.Solidcore is pursuing high-quality real estate across tier-one and tier-two markets, but it does not rely on one property type. The team studies how customers move through each trade area, what conveniences they expect, and which destinations already fit their routines. A street-front studio may work in New York. Surface parking could be critical in Texas. A grocery-anchored center can win when it offers the right mix of food, services, and daily traffic.The larger lesson is that good real estate is not defined by a category. It is defined by the customer.Josh also shares how solidcore doubled the size of a high-performing Chelsea studio by taking over the adjacent space. The expansion required the brand to revisit its lease, navigate a landmarked New York City building, and connect the two studios while closing for only 72 hours. What began as an unusual solution has become a model solidcore plans to replicate.The conversation goes beyond finding available boxes. It examines how co-tenancy reinforces customer habits, why convenience changes from market to market, and how a retailer's lease priorities evolve as the company matures.For landlords, retailers, and investors, solidcore's growth offers a clear takeaway: winning locations come from understanding how people actually use a place—and creating enough value to make them return.What You'll HearHow solidcore grew from approximately 85 studios to nearly 190 locationsWhy the 1,800- to 3,000-square-foot range has become one of retail's most competitiveHow solidcore evaluates street retail, grocery-anchored centers, lifestyle projects, and freestanding locationsWhy customer behavior matters more than adhering to one preferred property typeHow food, beverage, and complementary co-tenants can reinforce a seven-visit-per-month fitness routineWhy parking expectations in Texas are different from those in Los Angeles or MiamiWhat the shift toward services, wellness, and specialized fitness means for retail real estateHow solidcore doubled the size of a successful Chelsea studioWhat a growing retailer can gain by reopening and restructuring an existing leaseWhy reliable rent payments, reinvestment, and a clear growth story matter to landlordsChapters00:00 — Welcome to Retail RetoldChris introduces Josh Rainey, senior director of real estate and growth at solidcore.01:02 — Building a career in retail real estateJosh shares how an early fascination with places and development led him to the retailer side of the business.03:16 — Solidcore's growth storyThe brand has grown from approximately 85 locations to nearly 190, with more expansion ahead.05:10 — Where fitness spending is movingJosh explains why consumers continue to invest in health, wellness, services, and specialized workouts.06:15 — Why boutique fitness keeps fragmentingSmaller classes, specialized formats, recovery, and flexibility are reshaping the fitness landscape.09:40 — Competing for retail's most wanted spaceSolidcore's preferred size range puts the brand in direct competition with many other expanding concepts.11:14 — Choosing the right type of real estateStreet retail, lifestyle centers, grocery-anchored properties, and freestanding buildings can all work under the right conditions.13:34 — Co-tenancy that strengthens a routineJosh breaks down how food, beverage, and complementary brands can make a center more valuable to solidcore customers.15:00 — Convenience changes by marketParking, transit, access, and local expectations influence what makes a location viable.17:40 — The Chelsea expansion storyA high-performing studio needed more capacity, so solidcore looked through the wall instead of across the market.20:46 — Renegotiating for growthThe brand blended the expanded premises into one lease while updating language that no longer matched its standards.23:08 — Connecting two studios in 72 hoursSolidcore kept disruption to a minimum while creating a contiguous dual-studio location.24:38 — A new brand and a larger ecosystemJosh previews solidcore's next concept and the company's ambition to capture more of the customer's wellness spending.25:32 — Retail rapid fireJosh makes the case for bringing back Burdines and Sharper Image—and admits where Chris would find him at Target.

The BroTalk LIVE crew breaks down the verdict, why the case took three decades, and whether it finally closes one of hip-hop's biggest mysteries.Plus, a federal judge blocks parts of the Trump administration's effort to deport noncitizen students over pro-Palestinian activism, raising major questions about immigration and free speech.Then we ask “Racist?” after Target pulls a controversial children's Halloween costume; debate Rod Wave vs. Boosie and whether clearing a sample automatically makes it creative; examine growing concerns about America's food supply; and get into the unbelievable case of a man accused of posing as a San Francisco 49ers player to scam 26 women out of $1.3 million.BroTalk LIVE — politics, culture, entertainment and the conversations everybody else is arguing about.#Tupac #KeffeD #Trump #Target #RodWave #Boosie #HipHop #BroTalkLIVE
Every tech has had this call. You found the problem. You showed them the fix. They said no. So you blame the price. But the price wasn't the issue. You asked questions to get answers, and that's all you got. You never gave them a reason to trust you. And you don't get a do-over. One visit. One house. A limited number of questions. Here's the rule: if a question only gets you an answer, it's the wrong question. Chris Elmore shows what he means with a game. Pick a number between 1 and 20, and you get three yes-or-no questions to find it. Easy to win. Then he takes away the yes-or-no, and it falls apart because now he doesn't want to give up the number. Nothing about the number changed. A person got involved. That's the difference between a system and a customer. A meter answers yes or no. A homeowner decides how much to tell you. Chris calls the mistake target fixation. When all you want is the problem or the yes, you stop seeing everything around the target. Including the person standing in the room. In this episode: -Why a question that only gets an answer is the wrong question -Target fixation, and how chasing the yes makes you miss the customer -Troubleshooting a system vs. talking to a person -Why open questions are harder, and why they work -The introduction at the door, question by question -Why asking about allergies at the thermostat backfires -How to split "too expensive" into the money or the thing Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5DlsGABopPu9Qq9NNhK4hu Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/windshield-time/id1386770507 Windshield Time playlist: https://www.servextra.com/episodes/ Join the next class: https://www.servextra.com/press-play-training-series Windshield Time is hosted by Chris Elmore. #WindshieldTime #Technicians #Trades #HomeServiceBusiness #ServiceExcellence
Most drug discovery genomic data comes from a thin slice of the world, and that bias follows every decision downstream. Your team can run a Mendelian randomization study on 35,000 patients and still walk away with a single signal that doesn't even apply to the population you care about. If your phenotype definitions are fuzzy, more data won't save you. Erika Kvikstad is a computational biologist who led precision medicine for cardiovascular disease at Bristol-Myers Squibb, working on therapies including Camzyos for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. She now works independently on genomic data equity, focused on how reference populations shape everything from target discovery to clinical trial recruitment. You'll get a practical look at how to evaluate real-world data vendors, why heart failure is nearly impossible to define cleanly from billing codes, and where statistical power breaks down even with tens of thousands of patients. Erika also explains how her team used AI to reconstruct missing imaging data and validate cardiomyopathy diagnoses at scale. This episode covers GWAS studies, Mendelian randomization, UK Biobank, proteome-wide analysis, and the practical gap between biobank-scale data and disease-specific cohorts. It's built for data and analytics leaders working in life sciences who need to understand where genomic bias enters their pipeline, not just that it exists. Clarification Around 57:58–58:24, in discussing the proteome-wide Mendelian randomization study, Erika moved quickly between two related findings. BTN3A2 was identified as a candidate associated with ischemic stroke and potential immune-modulatory biology. Separately, single-cell expression data helped contextualize other candidate signals, including some with enriched expression in cardiomyocyte populations. Cardiomyocyte-enriched expression was not a specific finding for BTN3A2.

Oliver County has become one of the epicenters in the fight over data centers in North Dakota, and county State's Attorney Patrick Waters has become a lightening rod in that fight. His is a fascinating anecdote illustrating how overheated the data center debate has become. "If you look at the data center issue in Oliver County, there are a couple Facebook pages that are solely designed to create a discourse about data centers," he said on this episode of Plain Talk. "On these Facebook pages, there is an unbelievable amount of threatening behavior going on." "I am talking about people that are posting threatening to shoot people, threatening to attack workers who are working on the data center. Posting photos of firearms and of guillotines," he continued. "And these people have become so emboldened that they think that this is appropriate behavior." Waters denounced these behaviors, and the invective and name-calling in these debates, but has also used some of his own. When controversy came up over his stepson, and employee, operating a purported news website that has published articles about his private practice client, and data centers, he called the critic in an email to the newsmedia a "cowardly, anonymous, unscrupulous, bent, keyboard warrior." He also called them a "sub-creature" and a "timid and gossip-ridden snake." Asked about that language, in the context of his own criticism of intemperate behavior, Waters said it was justified by what he perceived as an attack on his stepson, particularly because the critic brought up his stepson's criminal record. "People are free to have their own opinions about anything. People are free to report things to the media and people are free to ask difficult questions. And I respect that," he said. "What I don't respect is this idea that because I'm unpopular in Oliver County because I advise the county commissioners to follow the law that they can then do everything that I do and say becomes a target of attack. And by bringing my family into this, I thought that that was low." Waters is also the subject of a removal petition that is currently under investigation by Attorney General Drew Wrigley's office. Wrigley will send a recommendation on removal to Gov. Kelly Armstrong when that process is completed. "The petition to remove me is full of lies," Waters said. "I fully expect the governor to to clear me, and I suspect that there'll be a decision made this week." Also on this episode, co-host Chad Oban and I discuss the beginning of this week's special legislative session, including the debate over banning kratom, banning nondisclosure agreements for data center projects, and unwinding the financial mess around a stalled military museum project.

We all know too much screen time isn't good for kids—and our instinct as parents is to protect them from it. But when fear shapes how we manage screens at home, it can quickly turn into shame the moment they pick one up. In today's world, where screens are woven into so much of daily life, the real challenge is to face that reality with thoughtfulness – and to make choices guided by our values, not by guilt. In this favorite episode from the archive, Dr. Becky sits down with screen time expert Ash Brandon, EdS (@thegamereducator) to talk about the moral judgments, practical boundaries, and family-specific choices that shape our approach to screens. * Thank you to our partners for making this episode possible: SmartyPants: Shop SmartyPants Vitamins at Target, Walmart, or Amazon today Frida: Shop Frida at Amazon, Target, and Walmart today Pampers Easy Ups: Start your potty training journey with Peppa Pig Pampers Easy Ups Care.com: For a limited time, you can use the code BECKY35 to save 35% on a Care.com Premium Membership.* *Offer applies to initial term of Care.com membership subscriptions.

Mandii B, joined by super producer A-King and headline king Jason “Jah” Lee preview a packed episode spanning race, politics, the music industry, Target backlash, Atlanta culture, mental health, viral scammers, CTE, and celebrity news [ 00:44 ]. Joined by super producer A-King and Jason “Jah” Lee, the crew recaps a recent night out in Atlanta [ 04:18 ], including a showcase curated by Nyla Simone and Generation Now’s Honor Roll that puts the spotlight on emerging rap talent [ 05:16 ]. That leads into a larger conversation about the realities of music industry economics, touring costs, artist development, and why R&B tours are increasingly difficult to sustain [ 11:24 ]. For his “Ignorant Take,” Jah recounts appearing on CNN alongside conservative political operative Janelle King [14:26 ], where a debate over a Kehinde Wiley painting displayed at a U.S. embassy turns into a larger argument about masculinity, race, art, and Confederate monuments [ 16:45 ]. Jah then shares some of the off-camera conversation from the green room as the crew discusses political messaging and voting rights [ 22:27 ], including questions surrounding mail ballot eligibility and access [ 24:47 ] and the tension that remained behind the scenes after the televised exchange [ 25:27 ]. Mandii’s own “Ignorant Thought” shifts the conversation to a Braves game in Cobb County, where the racial makeup of the crowd and noticeably relaxed stadium security lead to a discussion about race, safety, and privilege [ 27:18 ]. The hosts revisit the Braves’ relocation from Atlanta to Cobb County and what that move represented culturally and geographically [ 30:38 ], while Mandii reflects on how often race becomes part of the mental calculation Black people make while navigating public spaces [ 32:28 ]. Her experience sparks a broader conversation about white privilege and the freedom to move through certain environments without the same level of vigilance [ 35:52 ], before the crew asks why baseball—and the crowds surrounding it—can still feel disconnected from Black culture [ 40:32 ]. In “This Is America,” the hosts react to Target pulling a children’s clown costume after criticism that its design resembled blackface, along with the subsequent apology and backlash [ 44:33 ]. As Viola Davis’ response to Targetenters the conversation, the crew questions whether consumers consistently follow through on corporate boycotts when convenience becomes more important than principle [ 52:40 ]. They revisit the controversy surrounding an old Drake blackface image [ 54:39 ] to examine context, consistency, and selective outrage [ 58:19 ], ultimately asking where boycotts should begin, where they should end, and what meaningful consumer accountability actually looks like [01:00:38 ]. The conversation turns heavier with the fatal Atlanta BeltLine stabbing, involving a man reportedly experiencing psychosis [ 01:01:48 ]. The crew considers the family’s concerns about systemic mental-health failures, access to treatment, and what happens when people in crisis fall through the cracks [ 01:04:40 ], while wrestling with one of the most difficult questions surrounding public mental-health emergencies: how can family members, bystanders, and communities intervene safely before someone gets hurt? [ 01:10:14 ] From there, the episode pivots to an alleged NFL catfishing scheme involving Javon Love, who is reportedly under FBI investigation after accusations that he posed as a professional football player to scam victims [ 01:13:01 ]. The story prompts a deeper look at why people fall for grifters, scammers, fake identities, and status-driven deception [01:20:00 ] before the crew tackles another viral controversy involving former NBA player TJ Ford’s criticism of a Druski CTE skit [ 01:23:21 ]. They debate where empathy and personal choice fit into comedy involving serious medical conditions [ 01:25:28 ], while breaking down Druski’s use of satire and whether audiences are sometimes too quick to interpret comedic characters literally [ 01:26:53 ]. The final stretch moves into sports, wealth, and philanthropy with news surrounding new San Diego Padres owner Kwanza Jones [ 01:32:16 ]. Her reported $20 million donation to Princeton and feelings of being overlooked by the university spark a conversation about recognition, institutional respect, and what people expect when contributing significant money [ 01:33:22 ]. The crew examines the relationship between respect and spending power [ 01:37:00 ], questioning whether navigating elite institutions is strategic “3D chess” or a form of assimilation [ 01:39:33 ]. That ultimately leads to a bigger question about where Black wealth, philanthropy, and major donations can have the greatest impact [ 01:45:35 ] before Mandii, A-King, and Jah close out Episode 79 with final thoughts and a reminder to stay safe [ 01:49:23 ].

Joe Burrow to the Jets may sound outrageous, but Evan Roberts, Tiki Barber and Shaun Morash can actually see a path if Cincinnati disappoints and Burrow becomes frustrated. The debate expands to Jalen Hurts, who Tiki believes could fit perfectly with the Jets' offensive identity, while C.J. Stroud, Lamar Jackson, Dak Prescott and Matthew Stafford are also examined as possible future targets. The bigger question is whether the Jets should use their three first-round picks to draft and develop their own quarterback or cash in those assets for an established star. A caller adds another potential game-changer: Mike Tomlin, whose arrival could instantly make the Jets a far more appealing destination for a veteran quarterback.
A Navy captain with 24 years of service went to medical for exhaustion, weight gain, and low mood, and was told to see a therapist and eat less. When he asked for a testosterone test his physician asked whether he had erectile dysfunction, and refused to order it when he said no. His level came back at 160; the cutoff we use in this country is 300. I've treated this population for 15 years, and roughly 27% of operators test below that number. Tim Parlatore is the attorney who wrote the Pentagon memo that now puts testosterone on the annual physical, and we get into what it says and why most men never have this hormone checked again after they leave pediatrics.Studies & ReferencesCardiovascular Safety of Testosterone-Replacement Therapy - https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37326322/You Can Conquer Trauma and PTSD with Chris Frueh, PhD - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0olunOZM2lcSupport Kaczkowski Family's GoFundMe campaignhttps://impact.navysealfoundation.org/campaign/827807/donate?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bioWant ad-free episodes?

Aston Villa lost 1-0 at home to Arsenal in the Premier League, a game settled by one clinical moment from the league's most functional side. It's a result that leaves Villa without a shot on target for the second match running, but there's plenty of mitigating circumstances for the season's slow start.Zion Suzuki made his full Villa Park debut in goal and was the standout performer with his distribution impressing. Nicolas Jackson also started, similar in profile to Ollie Watkins but still finding his feet after a couple of training sessions. In the stands were Villa's two deadline-day transfers, Ibrahim Mbaye and Taylor Harwood-Bellis, who sat next to Leon Goretzka and Johan Manzambi, who both weren't at full fitness yet. Hopefully, some of the new boys will be in the squad for the trip to Hull City, though.This Post-Mortem covers the contentious penalty decisions, a familiar team structure, checks out who the Speed Demon was, and builds the case for why a repeated no-shots-on-target scoreline doesn't yet mean what it might look like from the outside — a squad still waiting for the version of itself that's actually finished being built.UTVNew Adidas Originals collection and away kit out now Get extra months free and huge savings on a two-year NordVPN plan here Become a MOMS Member for ad-free & extra shows - MOMS MembershipJoin the show's listener Facebook group The Mad Few.Credits:David Michael - @myoldmansaid | Chris Budd - @BUDD_music / Phillip Shaw - @prsgameThis Podcast has been created and uploaded by My Old Man Said.

Three years of the Watson Weekly, and Rick Watson and Jessica Lesesky mark it by doing the one thing a retail show almost never does on air: putting a grade next to the stores they actually shop.It is a tier list. S through C, live, no rubric shown to the audience. Alo Yoga takes the only S, on a hundred-plus stores, international expansion into London and Korea, and a King Street address in Charleston sitting between Skims and Gucci. Rick admits he was a hater first. Amazon lands at A on the strength of everything that isn't retail, including an ad business Jessica sizes at $56 billion, and lands there in spite of an experience Rick says has been crapped on by its own advertising. Lululemon and Nordstrom both stop at B. Eight varieties of pants that nobody working the floor can explain, and a service standard Nordstrom wrote for itself that Rick clocked hitting about fifty percent across four recent visits.Target does not get a letter. It gets a sell. Two years without a CMO, stores still out of stock, a rough back to school, and an insular Minnesota culture that Rick argues rejects outside ideas faster than it can hire them. Walmart gets a buy.Plus: Whole Foods as a returns counter that occasionally sells milk, why the Rack keeps outrunning the mothership, what Dick's is really buying with Foot Locker, and Jessica's ongoing Nuuly problem.
The frozen shoulder. The 3 a.m. anxiety. The brain fog and the rage that come out of nowhere. For decades, women were told it was "just stress" and sent home with an antidepressant. This week, Dr. A and Mary Alice welcome back the woman changing that — Dr. Mary Claire Haver, the OB-GYN The New York Times calls the "Menopause Queen" — for a full masterclass on perimenopause.It can start in your late 30s, it lasts 7 to 10 years, and almost no one warned us. Dr. Haver explains what's really happening in your body and brain, why so many women are dismissed, and what you can actually do about it — HRT, progesterone, vaginal estrogen, sleep, mood, and the myth that you have to wait until it's "bad enough" to get help. Because suffering isn't the price of admission.Subscribe to SHE MD Podcast for expert tips on PMOS, endometriosis, fertility, hormonal balance, mental health, and more.

She has dedicated her career to helping women better understand the biological changes that happen during midlife and has been called the “Menopause Queen” by The New York Times. She is the author of the bestselling The New Menopause and her newest book, The New Perimenopause, which focuses on the years leading up to menopause.

I still think about the $30 Bumblebee toy from Target.My son wanted to ride it through the store, and I said yes, with the very clear boundary that we were not buying it. Then, of course, he wanted to buy it. I said no. He pushed back. And eventually I gave in because I did not want to deal with the meltdown.He never even used the thing because he was too big for it.At the time, I could have just chalked it up to one of those parenting moments. But when I looked at why I gave in, I realized it wasn't really about the toy. I was trying to keep the peace.And that pattern showed up in a lot more places than Target.I stayed quiet when I wanted to speak up. I made decisions based on how someone else might react. I waited for things to change instead of listening to the little nudges that were already telling me something wasn't right.That's what Samantha Taylor and I ended up talking about on Parenthood Unscripted.We got into people pleasing, motherhood, the pressure to do everything, and the strange way we can start measuring our worth by how much we're able to handle. We also talked about how journaling helped me actually hear myself.Not gratitude lists. Not affirmations. Not trying to convince myself everything was fine. Just giving myself enough space to stop fixing, solving, and performing long enough to figure out what I actually felt and what I wanted.Because sometimes you don't need more advice. You need to be honest about what you already know. And then you need to see what happens when you finally act on it.Resources Mentioned:Episode 246: Why “Doing It All” Still Never Feels Like Enough Lighter: finally release the weight attached to your plate www.samanthapenkoff.com/lighterWork with me:The Leaders Table: https://www.samanthapenkoff.com/leaders-tableBreakthrough Intensive: You already know you should slow down, delegate more, stop overcommitting & be emotionally present.

Old-school retailers are coming for TikTok Shop and Amazon's beauty business. Nordstrom is rolling out same-day beauty delivery, Old Navy is betting on affordable fragrance from a Byredo perfumer, and Target is launching a 1,600-product beauty destination stocked with Sunday Riley, Briogeo, K-beauty favorites, and more. But Target's timing couldn't be worse: The retailer is facing backlash over an offensive children's Halloween costume—and renewed scrutiny of its DEI rollback. We unpack whether legacy retailers can win beauty shoppers back with convenience, discovery, and an IRL experience the algorithm can't replicate.Watch our episodes!Shop our episodesInstagram: @glossangelspod | TikTok: @glossangelespodEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Creator marketing is no longer just a tactic. It's becoming a core part of how the world's biggest retailers reach consumers, build relevance and drive commerce.Recorded from LTK Con 2026, Amber sits down with Pat Burke, VP of Media at Target, to discuss how Target is building for the future of creator commerce and why creators have become an integral part of its media strategy. Pat shares how Target evolved its approach from a one-size-fits-all creator program to a more sophisticated strategy built around the distinct needs of creators, including the launch of Target Ambassadors with LTK.They also unpack what makes creator content effective today, why relevance and authenticity matter more than ever, and how Target thinks about matching the right creator, audience and product rather than simply pursuing scale. Plus, Pat shares what Target has learned about moving at the speed of culture, the growing opportunity at the intersection of creators and retail media, and how Target Beauty Studio is bringing creator-led discovery into one of retail's most influential categories.Tune in for a look inside how one of the world's largest retailers is rethinking media, content and creator partnerships for what comes next.LTK for CreatorsLTK for BrandsLearn more about More To SayWatch on YouTubeFollow and shop Amber's LTKFollow Amber on InstagramConnect with Amber on LinkedInConnect with Pat on LinkedInFollow Target on LTKFollow Target on Instagram Follow Target on TikTok Hosted on Acast.

Being the gray man isn't about looking tactical, disappearing into the wilderness, or pretending you're invisible. It's about understanding your environment, controlling the signals you put out, and avoiding unnecessary attention when everyone else is competing for it.In this episode, I break down the principles of actually becoming the gray man: blending into your environment, managing your appearance and behavior, developing situational awareness, controlling your ego, and knowing when to move, when to speak, and when to simply observe. We also discuss why expensive gear and tactical clothing can sometimes accomplish the exact opposite of what you intended by advertising your capabilities and making you memorable.The objective isn't paranoia. It's adaptability. Whether you're traveling, navigating an unfamiliar city, dealing with civil unrest, or simply moving through everyday life, the person who understands the baseline of their environment and knows how to operate within it has an advantage.The best gray man isn't the person nobody sees. It's the person nobody remembers.Use GLOVER to save 20% and get Right on TRThttps://hp-trt.comTrain with me Sept. 5-6th in CA, at Route 66. https://longhaulsupplycompany.com/events/gunfighter-pistolhttps://longhaulsupplycompany.com/events/h-s-o-head-shots-only-with-mike-gloverSHIRTShttps://longhaulsupplycompany.com/shop/products/god-family-prepping-shirt-greenFollow!https://youtube.com/@UCcj3FycZBXIPNj7QIBKTIDw * Longevity Farms https://getlongevityfarms.shop/ code MIKE15 for 15% OFF at checkout.Sign up for our email https://longhaulsupplycompany.comFanny Pack for EDC in stockhttps://longhaulsupplycompany.comFollow the underground https://patreon.com/mikegloverGet your Carnivault Subscription and Save on Changing Beef Prices by locking in your prices - The best freeze dried meat for prep or dinner.
