How is New York City like 19th century Japan? There might be more similarities than you think and Shige Kabashima wants to show them to you. An alumnus of Manhattan's legendary Angel's Share, Shige went on to found ROKC, a beloved ramen and oyster spot in Harlem, and NR, it's spiritual successor on the Upper East Side. He sits down with the band to discuss how food influences his cocktails, drawing inspiration from Japan, and what it's like to close down one iconic bar while simultaneously making plans to open a new one.PLUS, the founder of Maine Beer Co is running for senate and… maybe we don't want the people who run our tap rooms running the country. Greg weighs in on whether or not he feels those skills translate.Follow NR on Instagram at @nr_nycFollow Love Thy Neighbor at @lovethyneighbornycLINKSBecome a Regular: patreon.com/SpeakeasyRegularsFor resources on dealing with ICE agents in your community visit nouswithoutyou.la/ and @thenycallianceThe Speakeasy is now on YouTube!

We're calling it: the Be Powerful Lock-In starts now. No waiting for January, no “new year, new me” vibes, just real momentum to finish 2025 strong. In this episode, we're locking in our most powerful selves across four key areas -- physical, mental, nutrition, and relationships -- and sharing the exact habits and mindset shifts we're using to do it. From ten extra pushups and 30 grams of protein at breakfast to daily gratitude, grounding, and genuine connection, this is your friendly reminder that you don't need a new year to reset. You just need a plan and a little accountability (and we're sharing both). Resources mentioned: HSM Smoothie Sarah Wragge Wellness Be Powerful Lock-In Checklist (Free Download!) Episodes mentioned: 179. Love Languages Are Kinda BS & Spilling the Tea on Going to Couple's Counseling Some key takeaways from this episode include: Build strength now. Ten extra pushups and 20 squats a day can change your body and your mindset. Your morning sets the tone. Three things you're grateful for and an hour of quiet can transform your day. Eat with intention. 30g of protein at breakfast, color in every meal, and less refined sugar. Connection is power! Put your phone down, look someone in the eye, and really see them. You don't need a new year to reset. You just need a plan - and we've got one for you!
In the countryside just north of Tokyo, the Haruno family experiences change, growth, passion, and quiet strangeness through a series of episodic vignettes. We follow a young girl who's haunted by a giant version of herself, her brother who's trying to get over his love woes, a mother trying to get back into the swing of animation, a father fulfilling his role as a hypnotherapist, a grandfather absorbed in the final phase of living, and an uncle who's taking a breather from city life. Filled with humor, absurdity, and a touch of the surreal, The Taste of Tea is a film that distinguishes itself by letting life unfold without judgment or a sense of urgency. Directed by Katsuhito Ishii, this is a story that anyone can delve into and emerge from with something to savor. As always, thank you for listening and we hope you enjoy our discussion.

The Barbell Mamas Podcast | Pregnancy, Postpartum, Pelvic Health
Fear thrives where facts are fuzzy—especially around pelvic organ prolapse. We open the blinds with clear explanations, zero scare tactics, and a practical path back to the barbell. You'll hear why the vagina isn't a hollow tube, what normal movement of vaginal tissues looks like when you bear down, and how providers actually assess prolapse across the anterior, posterior, and apical walls. More importantly, we focus on what your symptoms mean for your life and training, not just what a grade says on paper.We get honest about timing and healing. Early postpartum tissues are remodeling, so a six‑week verdict rarely predicts your long‑term baseline. Think of prolapse like stretch marks: some bodies show more change, some less, and sensitivity varies. When heaviness or that “golf ball” sensation shows up, we map out next steps—conservative care to coordinate your pelvic floor, simple recovery positions to calm flares, and how a pessary can act like a sport-ready brace with the right fit. We also outline when surgery is typically considered, what options exist, and the trade‑offs to discuss if future pregnancies are on your mind.Then we take on the weight room myths. Occupational lifting data isn't the same as structured strength training, and newer research doesn't show a significant increase in descent among strenuous sport athletes. Translation: you didn't “cause” prolapse by one heavy session. We walk through a return-to-lifting framework—clean up bracing to avoid bearing down, use your breath as a pressure gauge, manage load to raise your symptom threshold, and reintroduce the belt with purpose. Along the way, we tackle constipation, coughing, and pelvic floor tightness, so you're not clenching your way into more discomfort.If this conversation eased your fears or gave you a plan, share it with a friend, subscribe for more evidence-based guidance, and leave a review to help other moms find reliable support.___________________________________________________________________________Don't miss out on any of the TEA coming out of the Barbell Mamas by subscribing to our newsletter You can also follow us on Instagram and YouTube for all the up-to-date information you need about pelvic health and female athletes.

We live in what Heath Hardesty calls the age of disintegration - a world marked by fragmentation, distraction, and disconnection. I feel that deeply. So many of us are trying to hold our lives together in a culture that constantly pulls us apart. In this conversation, Heath joins me to talk about how apprenticeship to Jesus offers another way - a way toward coherence, union, and wholeness. Heath is a pastor in the Bay Area and the author of All Things Together: How Apprenticeship to Jesus Is the Way of Flourishing in a Fragmented World. We talk about what it means to move beyond simply knowing about Jesus to actually living with Him - to abide, obey, and become people who image His love in a fractured world. We explore practices like unhurried presence and compassionate gentleness, and how they reveal a kind of power that's rooted not in control, but in love. If you've felt scattered, weary, or disoriented in your faith, this episode is an invitation to slow down, breathe, and remember that in Christ, all things hold together.Heath Hardesty is the author of All Things Together: How Apprenticeship to Jesus is the Way of Flourishing in a Fragmented World (WaterBrook; on sale 10/14/25) and he serves as the lead pastor of Valley Community Church and is the founder of Inklings Coffee & Tea in the heart of downtown Pleasanton, California. Heath grew up in a blue-collar home and was a plumber's apprentice in Colorado before becoming a pastor on the edge of Silicon Valley where he, his wife, and four kids now reside. He holds degrees in literature, leadership, biblical studies, and theology from the University of Colorado Boulder and Western Seminary in Portland.

Good morning everyone! I wanted to share the story of my first self initiation at 23 which was guided by my cousin Bridget. This image is the creek that I steward in Sonoma not the creek that I dunked in, but it seems like a fitting Image considering I continue to position myself next to a creek! I was so teary after I recorded it but I called my cousin Bridget even though I know she's getting ready for school. And I thanked her. I know I've thanked her before for that incredible day 30 years ago. This episode includes * The feeling we have when it's time for a change* An invitation to join me for an initiation* The story of my first self-initiation* Why we need it right nowI am also inviting you to join me for a self initiation of your own.

It's one part siege movie, one part social horror, and all parts grim.When the Ain't Rights take a last-minute gig deep in Oregon's backwoods, they expect low pay and bad beer — not blood, dogs, machetes and Patrick Stewart as a terrifying skinhead ringleader. What follows is a night of panic, violence and duct-tape surgery, as the band fights to survive against an organised fascist militia who'd rather clean up witnesses than pay for another gig.We dig into:Punk authenticity — the grime, the DIY spirit, and how Saulnier nails the small-venue chaos.Patrick Stewart's casting — calm, chilling, and galaxies away from Captain Picard.Anton Yelchin's tragic final performance — and what a loss he was.Violence that hurts — no jump scares, just sudden, stomach-turning realism.The Nazi problem — why these villains feel horrifyingly believable in 2025.The A24 factor — another lean, mean indie proving the studio's knack for smart brutality.Elsewhere in the episode: ☕ The Top 5 Hot Drinks delivers peppermint tea, Dirty Harry's coffee, and more filth than a builder's thermos.

The Barbell Mamas Podcast | Pregnancy, Postpartum, Pelvic Health
The room got quieter when the number landed: HCG at 5,000—far too low for nearly thirteen weeks. From that moment, everything we'd been planning—the crib shuffle in our three-bedroom house, the baby names our kids were arguing over, the assumption we'd crossed into a “safe zone”—shifted into the harsh clarity of a missed miscarriage. We're sharing the story we needed to hear: what the ER limbo feels like, how bedside ultrasound can foreshadow a formal diagnosis, and why lab values can be both information and heartbreak.We walk through the real choices families face after pregnancy loss: expectant management and its long, uncertain timeline; medical management with misoprostol, including what the pain, bleeding, and safety thresholds actually feel like at home; and surgical management via D&C when speed, tissue testing, or medical necessity make it the right call. Along the way we talk about follow-up plans, HCG monitoring, when to seek help, and how to make decisions that match your values, schedule, support system, and mental health. This is practical, compassionate guidance from people who just carried it.You'll also hear the partner's perspective—what it's like to hold hope in a waiting room, to field waves of well‑meant messages, and to grieve a child without the physical markers of loss. We share how we told our kids, why simple rituals like a barefoot hike helped, and how community support can be both overwhelming and lifesaving. If you've been here, you're not alone. If you haven't, this conversation can help you support someone who has with empathy instead of minimization.Subscribe for more honest, evidence‑informed conversations on pregnancy, postpartum, pelvic health, and strength. If this episode resonates, share it with someone who needs it and leave a review to help others find these stories.___________________________________________________________________________Don't miss out on any of the TEA coming out of the Barbell Mamas by subscribing to our newsletter You can also follow us on Instagram and YouTube for all the up-to-date information you need about pelvic health and female athletes.

Sheppard is also the editor of a collection of letters between Caroline Ransom Williams, the first university-trained American Egyptologist, and James Breasted from the University of Chicago (Archaeopress, 2018). Sheppard's monograph, Tea on the Terrace, is about hotels in Egypt as sites of knowledge creation in Egyptology during the discipline's “Golden Age,” around 1880 to 1930.Women in the Valley of the Kings: The Untold Story of Women Egyptologists in the Gilded Age was published in July 2024.

A recent article I read states that the United Nations General Assembly has designated 1999 as the "International Year of Older Persons." The theme will be "towards a society of all ages." This theme was chosen to promote the philosophy that societies should be inclusive in nature, should embrace all population groups, and share their resources equally. October 1st, 1998 will be the day that the UN launches its year long celebration, which is also the International Day of Older Persons, having its beginning in 1990. The United States Planning Committee for this unique year recognizes aging as multi-dimensional and spanning every individual's lifelong development. The importance and contribution of older persons to intergenerational richness, the heterogeneity of the older population, and it is concerned about the continuing poverty of many older persons and the necessity to provide adequate health care in the later years. The committee seeks to create opportunities for all of our citizens to understand, appreciate, and celebrate the contributions to nation, community, and family of older persons as citizens, caregivers, volunteers and workers. The committee is working to focus attention on the challenge to our nation to ensure that the increases in life expectancy are matched by the increased opportunities for older persons to find fulfillment to these years. It also recognizes education as an enterprise that is lifelong and takes place in many different settings. It is the mission of this committee to encourage thoughtful planning to intergenerational projects, seminars, discussion groups, and ethnic and cultural heritage programs in educational systems, corporations, religious organizations, and the public and private sector. So dear readers of this warm thoughts column, be looking for special events in our community and be an active participant in this year's honoring many of you!Grandma and Grandpa: I like to walk with grandma and grandpa. Their steps are short like mine. They don't say, "Now, hurry up," they always take their time. I like to walk with grandma and grandpa. Their eyes see things mine. Pebbles bright, a funny cloud, and hidden drops of dew. Most people have to hurry, they do not stop and see. I'm glad God made grandma and grandpa unrushed and young like me. Author Unknown.

A Tea with Stuart Grant of Bench Walk Advisors and Erika Levin of Fox Rothschild, where we learn about recent developments affecting the Litigation Finance Industry and what the latest efforts have been to successfully keep open pathways for companies and individuals to access justice. In this episode, we discuss recent efforts by the U.S. Government (both state and federal) and interested parties to quash the industry, what we should be bracing for next, whether some form of regulation might be advisable, and what are some of the false and most harmful myths about third party funding that critics continue to perpetuate. We also discuss in this episode the threat to the rule of law generally.Please note, the positions and opinions expressed by the speakers are strictly their own, and do not necessarily represent the views of their employers, nor those of the D.C.

We watched Arthur. A New York love story. Pure lightning in a bottle. The little movie that went on to become the #4 biggest hit of 1981. And we watched Arthur 2: On the Rocks. A critical punching bag. An outcast. Something considered a travesty of elegance and taste, when it's considered at all. More to the point, what is Arthur in 2025? It's weird that it was so successful back in the day, and even weirder that we'd still want to discuss it now. We dig into that weirdness, and the double weirdness of its denigrated solo sequel: why it happened, how it happened and how it happens to work for us, just a little.
