"You don't need to fix all the cats to make a difference—you just need to fix the right ones, in the right places, at the right time." This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund. In Part 1 of this two-part webinar, Bryan Kortis, National Programs Director for Neighborhood Cats, breaks down the power of targeted TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) and why it's essential for managing community cat populations effectively. Hosted in partnership with the Community Cats Podcast, this episode dives deep into the theory behind concentrating resources in high-need areas and why traditional, scattered approaches often fall short. Using real-world case studies and expert insight, Bryan illustrates how geographic targeting, colony-level focus, and an understanding of carrying capacity and the vacuum effect can dramatically increase the impact of your spay/neuter efforts. You'll also discover how strategic targeting has successfully transformed neighborhoods from overrun to manageable, with results that include reduced shelter intake, lower euthanasia rates, and fewer cat complaints. If your organization has limited resources and big goals, this session is your roadmap to making the most of every dollar—and every surgery. Whether you're running a spay/neuter clinic, a grassroots rescue, or a municipal program, Bryan offers scalable advice that adapts to any community size. Learn how to prioritize, structure, and execute a targeted TNR program for maximum effect.

Over 99% of homes contain at least one allergen, with 75% harboring three to six, yet winter allergies often masquerade as stubborn “colds” or recurrent respiratory infections. This episode confronts the core diagnostic challenge of differentiating allergy-driven symptoms from viral, bacterial, or non-allergic triggers in colder months. We delve into indoor allergen epidemiology, risk stratification for polysensitized patients, syndrome overlap in differential diagnosis, and utility of location-specific respiratory allergen profiles for diagnostic testing and interpretation. Additional topics include guideline-informed approaches to environmental exposure reduction, patient-centered therapeutic strategies, monitoring of symptom thresholds, actionable counseling for managing dust mites, pet dander, molds, mouse and cockroach allergens, and streamlining through tailored lab ordering guides and reflex pet component testing. Clinicians will gain practical insight into identifying sensitizations, guiding targeted exposure minimization, and elevating respiratory care quality for patients with persistent winter symptoms.

From the moment Kimberly's mother, the head of her coven, used her sister in rituals and marked Kimberly for spiritual destruction, her life became a battleground of witchcraft, demonic assignments, and generational curses designed to stop her from ever discovering her identity in Christ. Decades later, witches still target her family, from spell-casters burning voodoo dolls in their own hands to a coven sending entities to infiltrate her home, even possessing a cat on her doorstep. But every attack collapses the same way: Kimberly fights back with authority, binding witchcraft, exposing demons, and watching their curses detonate right in front of them. When the coven tried to claim her prophetic son, she prayed a single prayer that sent him running out of their house in terror, eyes opened to the demonic spirits he'd been deceived by. Despite witches stalking her family, manipulating relationships, and attempting to kill her husband, Kimberly walks in bold victory, proving that the witchcraft that tried to destroy her… failed. Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference!

Between 1997 and 2011, opioid dispensing in the United States more than tripled, fueling what would become the deadliest drug epidemic in American history. This surge in the supply of opioids was concentrated among a small subset of doctors: roughly 1 percent of the doctors who prescribed opioids accounted for almost 50 percent of all domestic opioid doses prescribed. In a paper in the American Economic Journal: Economic Policy, author Adam Soliman examined what happened when federal authorities cracked down on "rogue" doctors who overprescribed opioids. He found that removing a single doctor from the opioid supply chain reduced county-level dispensing by 10 percent, with no negating increases in neighboring areas. Yet these interventions came with a trade-off—while overall drug mortality declined, heroin overdoses increased by 50 percent, likely as a result of existing users seeking alternatives. Soliman recently spoke with Tyler Smith about how he untangled these complex enforcement effects and what his findings mean for combating drug epidemics that begin in the legal pharmaceutical market.

https://www.theforbiddenknowledgenetwork.com For decades, MKUltra was dismissed as rumor. Then the documents surfaced. Behind locked doors and classified budgets, the CIA launched a series of secret experiments designed to influence behavior, alter perception, and push the limits of human control. From drug testing and sensory manipulation to psychological conditioning, this episode uncovers the methods, victims, and long-term consequences of one of the most controversial programs in intelligence history. Was MKUltra truly shut down, or did it evolve into something even more hidden?

EP. # 1286 Havana Syndrome Goes Domestic: Targeted Individual Benjamin Conine and the American V2K Nightmare When Benjamin Conine's computers were remotely wiped and his wife began acting like a stranger overnight, he thought it was sophisticated hacking. Then the voices started, clear, synthetic, projected directly into his skull, day and night. What began as digital sabotage has, over two years, become relentless psychological warfare using voice-to-skull (V2K) transmission, street-level surveillance teams, and tactics eerily reminiscent of The Finders cult and modern MK-ULTRA successors. Tonight, Benjamin brings logs, recordings, and a chilling warning: the technology to silently control human thought already exists, it's being deployed on civilians, and almost no one believes the victims until it's too late. GUEST: Benjamin Conine is a maintenance technician and everyday husband who, since 2023, claims to have been subjected to an ongoing, high-tech targeting campaign involving remote neural manipulation, voice-to-skull harassment, and coordinated psychological operations. After his and his wife's devices were compromised and inexplicable voices appeared in their heads, he began meticulously documenting the intrusions. Drawing parallels to historic CIA programs and present-day surveillance fusion centers, Benjamin now speaks out as one of thousands of self-described “Targeted Individuals,” determined to prove that the sci-fi nightmare of silent mind control is already here.

Behind every successful property turnaround is a set of choices that shape the outcome. In this solo episode of the Real Estate Investor Podcast, Gary Lipsky walks listeners through a detailed case study of Icon on Spanish Trail, the 256-unit Tucson property he acquired in December 2023.

Gary breaks down the improvements that delivered the biggest impact, from high-efficiency plumbing fixtures and privacy fences to selective painting and smart amenity additions. He also shares the early challenges, including occupancy dips and renovation difficulties, and how focusing on controllables helped stabilize the asset and lift NOI (Net Operating Income) by 36% in the first year.

Welp... Jer bought a gun. And let's just say his progressive friend group had some thoughts. This week, the boys are joined by Noah Schwartz, author of Targeted, to figure out why the topic of firearms immediately feels like a diagnosis.

How did a leaked, Israel-commissioned poll end up calling Israel a “genocidal, apartheid country” in the eyes of the world? Why are billion-dollar media empires, Big Tech cloud contracts, and paid influencer networks all converging to sell you one story on Gaza? Who really pushed for the detention of Sami Hamdi—and what does that tell us about the future of dissent and citizenship in the West? In his latest Focal Point, Imam Tom maps the money, the media, and the smear machine—and what it means for your rights moving forward.

Hezbollah Regeneration Efforts and the Fallout from a Targeted Beirut Strike — David Daoud, Bill Roggio — David Daoud reports that Israel killed Hezbollah's top military commander, Hashem Safieddine, in Beirut, marking an expansion of Israeli operations into the Lebanese capital. This escalation reflects Hezbollah's comprehensive regeneration efforts—including receiving billions in funding from Iran and developing domestic drone production capabilities—which are outpacing Israeli degradation operations. Hezbollah and Hamas view Russia's success in Ukraine as strategically beneficial because it diminishes American global hegemony.
Today's Headlines: A judge just tossed the Trump administration's cases against James Comey and Letitia James because prosecutor Lindsey Halligan wasn't legally appointed. The cases could technically come back… except the statute of limitations already expired for Comey. Meanwhile, the Pentagon is now investigating Senator Mark Kelly for “sedition” over that video telling troops not to follow illegal orders — and they can only target him because he's the only veteran in the group who's formally retired. In MAGA meltdown news, Punchbowl is reporting more House Republicans are eyeing the exits as they brace for a midterm wipeout and the likely end of Mike Johnson's speakership. DOGE — Elon and Trump's short-lived Department of Government Efficiency — has also mysteriously vanished eight months early after accomplishing…well, nothing. Speaking of Elon, Twitter/X's new transparency feature instantly exposed a bunch of “patriotic American” MAGA accounts as being run from places like Russia, Nigeria, and Portugal. The feature was turned off, then on again, like someone panicking with a light switch. In actual public health news, Gallup says nearly 1 in 10 Americans have been diagnosed with cancer — the highest yet — even though death rates have improved. Age is still the #1 risk factor. And finally, Xi Jinping called Trump to pitch his “Taiwan belongs to China” position. Trump later bragged that Xi invited him to Beijing but conveniently forgot to mention Taiwan at all. Shocking no one, it doesn't seem to be his favorite geopolitical toy.
