Do you ever wonder why you're doing a certain workout, not just how? This week Coach Ben Sommerville joins the podcast to break down some of the most effective swim workouts to help you train smarter, not just harder. We are tackling swim sessions: Broken 200s, Broken 1500s, Broken Ladders, Threshold 150s, Sprint 50s and more! Coach Ben explains the purpose behind each workout, what systems of the body they target, and how to execute them for maximum benefit. Whether you're aiming to finish the workout or are hunting for the elusive "narwhal," understanding the why behind your TriDot workout might be the edge you've been missing.
Health care attorney Dennis Hursh discusses his article "wRVU threshold risks in physician contracts." Dennis explains the critical distinction between a guaranteed salary and a draw against future earnings where failure to meet production targets can lead to clawbacks. The discussion covers how employers often set unrealistic wRVU thresholds that exceed historical data or MGMA benchmarks while failing to provide adequate marketing support to meet those goals. Dennis highlights the importance of ensuring new physicians have guaranteed income during their ramp-up period and warns against contract language that credits productivity only when billed rather than when services are rendered. Listen to learn how to protect your financial future by identifying and negotiating these treacherous contract provisions before signing on the dotted line. Partner with me on the KevinMD platform.

In this episode of the Deer IQ Podcast, we're joined by Dr. Andrew Little (University of Nebraska) to break down GPS-collared buck data that reveals how much hunting pressure deer will tolerate before their behavior changes.Using real movement data, we explore how many hunters per acre actually creates pressure, how quickly bucks respond once that line is crossed, and why most deer don't leave — they simply avoid hunters.If you manage a property, share a lease, or hunt pressured ground, this episode answers the critical questions:• How many hunters can your land realistically support?• When does good hunting start to decline — and why?• What is the true pressure threshold, and how do you stay below it all season?This episode defines hunting pressure in measurable terms and gives you practical ways to manage it so your land hunts better and stays fresh longer.• 2A DISPLAY PRODUCTS (10% OFF Code "IQ" ) Here: https://www.2adisplay.com/ • Get a Smart Land & Hunting Plan HERE: https://deeriq.com/land-and-hunting-plans/ • Take the Deer IQ Test 360 HERE: https://deeriq.com/full-assessment/** Season 3 Quiz: https://deeriq.com/season-3-quiz/ • GENERAL INFO about ALL Deer IQ Resources HERE: https://deeriq.com/services/ Website: https://deeriq.com Facebook Private Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/511109237864762 Deer IQ FREE Journal: https://deeriq.com/journal/ Pressured Public Lands Hunting Guide: https://deeriq.com/public-land-hunting-guide/ Newsletter Signup: https://deeriq.com/signup/ Patreon - Contribute Financially to Deer IQ: https://www.patreon.com/DeerIQPatreon Scent Control Regimen: https://deeriq.com/scentcontrol-regimen/ Episode # 121Guest: Host Adam Lewis, Dr. Andrew LittleIQ ranking - 5 (Intermediate)
www.run4prs.com for a free week of trainingSpeed sessions – Short, intense repeats that teach your legs to move fast and your lungs to tolerate oxygen debt. Think 400s or 800s at 5K pace or slightly faster.Threshold runs – Sustained efforts at your “comfortably hard” pace. These build the aerobic engine you need to sustain 5K pace without collapsing. Usually 15–25 minutes at tempo pace.Race-pace practice – You must spend time at actual 5K pace. Nothing replaces the feel of running the exact effort you'll need on race day.Here's a little secret: the fastest runners aren't the ones with the highest mileage—they're the ones who hit their quality workouts consistently and recover properly.

Cutting Through the Chaos with Wallace Garneau – Immigration is often treated as a moral slogan rather than a system with limits. This episode examines assimilation as a rate-dependent process, asking what happens when societies absorb newcomers faster than shared norms can form. It explores culture, scale, and history to explain why cohesion depends on expectations, enforcement, and clear thinking about tradeoffs...

In this episode of Spirit Box, I sit down with Chad Andro, host of the podcast Radical Elphame, to talk about his journey into witchcraft, animism, and the search for right relation while living inside an imperial system. Chad reflects on an early entheogenic awakening and his eventual move away from chaos magic toward traditional witchcraft, fairy lore, and a more primal, land-rooted practice shaped by initiation rather than belief.We explore animal encounters as genuine moments of spiritual threshold—bears appearing during ritual, deer as initiators, and the presence of wolves, foxes, and owls in magical work. Our conversation moves through symbolism, shamanic experience, and the difficulty of maintaining spiritual seriousness in a modern, distracted world. We also reflect on what it means to practise witchcraft beyond self-improvement, and how magic can force a reckoning with fear, responsibility, and moral consequence.In the Plus episode, our conversation turns to Chad's work as a winemaker and his experience of creating talismanic wine as offerings. Chad explains how wine, intention, labour, and land become inseparable in devotional magic, and shares the thinking behind a recent occult-focused wine release designed to be worked with rather than collected.From there, we move into podcasting and writing as acts of discipline and devotion, Chad's Substack work, and the writers currently shaping his thinking, including Lee Morgan's A Deep Without Name. We end by talking frankly about empire, exhaustion, and the uneasy possibility that real transformation—personal and collective—may only come through collapse, and what it means to try to remain in right relation as that process unfolds.Show notes:Chad on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/radicalelphame/Chad's substack: https://thefoliatehead.substack.comA deed without a name: https://www.worldofbooks.com/en-gb/products/deed-without-a-name-a-unearthing-the-legacy-of-traditional-witchcraft-book-lee-morgan-9781780995496?sku=GOR006392626Radical Elphame podcastKeep in touch?https://linktr.ee/darraghmason
In this episode of Crossing Thresholds, Maurice Bloem speaks with Binalakshmi Nepram, an Indigenous scholar, poet, and peacebuilder from Manipur in Northeast India. Bina's life and work sit at the intersection of climate disruption, armed conflict, and Indigenous spirituality — a place where survival is not abstract, but lived every day. Bina reflects on growing up in a deeply land-connected Indigenous community under martial law, where rituals, food, and shared spiritual practices have long sustained resilience. She speaks powerfully about Indigenous knowledge as living science, about women who patrol the streets at night to protect their communities, and about the meaning of staying rooted to land even amid violence and climate stress. Throughout the conversation, Bina reminds us that resilience does not begin with institutions — it begins with people, memory, and care. This episode weaves lived experience with insights from the Climate, Faith & Migration research, highlighting how Indigenous and faith-based knowledge systems are often the first to respond to crisis, yet remain overlooked by external actors. It is a conversation about peace, dignity, and the right to survive as a people — and an invitation to listen more closely to those who have been holding the line for generations.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services has finalized the 2026 Outpatient Perspective Payment System (OPPS) rule, with most policies taking effect on January 1, 2026. Jenna Stern, Vice President of Regulatory Affairs and Public Policy at Vizient, joins host Carolyn Liptak, Pharmacy Executive Director in Vizient's Center for Pharmacy Practice Excellence, to discuss key updates to payment policies, payment rates, and quality provisions affecting Medicare beneficiaries receiving care in hospital outpatient departments and ambulatory surgical centers. Guest speaker: Jenna Stern Vice President of Regulatory Affairs and Public Policy Vizient Host: Carolyn Liptak, MBA, RPh Pharmacy Executive Director Vizient Verified Rx Host Show Notes: 00:05 — Introduction Announcer welcomes listeners to VerifiedRx. Host Carolyn Liptak, Pharmacy Executive Director at Vizient, introduces the episode focus: the 2026 CMS Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS) Final Rule. Guest: Jenna Stern, VP of Regulatory Affairs and Public Policy at Vizient. 01:12 — Overview of the OPPS Final Rule OPPS sets Medicare payment for most hospital outpatient services. Published annually (typically November), effective January 1. Covers payment rates, policies, quality programs, and compliance requirements. Note: CMS delayed enforcement of hospital price transparency requirements until April 1, 2026. 01:34 — Key Takeaways From the 2026 Final Rule Jenna's high-level insights: Hospitals will continue facing financial pressure in 2026. Modest payment rate increase combined with reimbursement-reducing policies. Expansion of site-neutral payment policies will be particularly impactful. Rule reflects emerging administration priorities shaping future policy. 02:21 — OPPS Payment Rate Update for 2026 CMS finalized a 2.6% OPPS schedule increase factor for hospitals meeting quality reporting requirements. 02:40 — What the 2.6% Increase means Based on: 3% market basket update –0.7% productivity adjustment Results in a modest net increase. Slightly better than the proposed 2.4% increase, though still viewed as inadequate. CMS estimates $8 billion increase in total OPPS payments compared to 2025. 03:37 — 340B Remedy Offset: Background From 2018–2022, CMS paid for 340B drugs at ASP –22.5%. Prior Supreme Court decision from 2022 found that CMS lacked authority to vary rates as finalized in prior rulemaking (e.g., without using drug acquisition cost surveys to inform policy). 04:13 — 340B Remedy Offset in the 2026 Final Rule CMS considered increasing the remedy offset from 0.5% to 2%. Stakeholders strongly opposed the increase due to hospital financial strain. 05:10 — Final Outcome CMS retained the 0.5% offset for 2026. CMS signaled that larger offsets may be proposed for 2027. This marks the first year the remedy offset takes effect, 06:00 — Site-Neutral Payment Policy: What It Is Concept: same service = same payment, regardless of site of care. Hospital concern: policy reduces hospital reimbursement without accounting for site of care differences, patient acuity, overhead, or service complexity. 06:15 — Site-Neutral Expansion in the 2026 Rule CMS expanded site-neutral payment to include drug administration services at excepted off-campus provider-based departments. 07:08 — Financial Impact Reimbursement aligns with Physician Fee Schedule rates. CMS estimates $290 million reduction in outpatient spending for 2026. $220 million of savings accrue directly to Medicare. Not implemented in a budget-neutral manner. 08:14 — Non-Opioid Pain Management Payments Temporary additional payments began January 1, 2025. Authorized under the NO PAIN Act (Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2023). 08:28 — What's New for 2026 CMS finalized the renewal of: 5 drugs 13 medical devices eligible for separate payment in HOPD and ASC settings. Per statue, payments available through December 31, 2027. 09:32 — Process Improvements CMS will allow more frequent consideration of new qualifying products (not limited to annual updates). Quality criteria unchanged; timing flexibility added. CMS released guidance on how stakeholders can engage for inclusion. 10:58 — OPPS Drug Acquisition Cost Survey CMS finalized plans to survey hospitals on acquisition costs for separately payable OPPS drugs. 11:21 — Why CMS Is Advancing the Survey Addresses Supreme Court requirements from prior 340B litigation. Aligns with White House Executive Order on lowering drug prices. Positions CMS to use survey data for 2027 rulemaking. 12:47 — OPPS Packaging Thresholds for 2026 Drugs and biologics: Threshold remains at $140. Diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals: Increased to $655 (from $630). Products below thresholds retain Status Indicator “N” (packaged payment). 13:26 — Why Billing Packaged Drugs Still Matters Even though not separately payable, hospitals must bill for packaged drugs. Billing data feeds cost reports used to calculate future bundled payments. Failure to bill can result in inaccurately low reimbursement. 14:14 — Elimination of the Inpatient-Only (IPO) List CMS finalized a three-year transition to eliminate the IPO list by January 1, 2029. 14:32 — Why This Change Is Significant IPO list historically ensured certain services were provided inpatient only. CMS emphasizes provider judgment in determining site of care. Raises concerns about: Patient safety Payer coverage changes Pressure to move services outpatient 16:28 — ASC Covered Procedure List Expansion CMS expanded the ASC Covered Procedure List. Enables more Medicare covered services to be performed in the ASC settings. 16:48 — Price Transparency: Still a Priority No major overhaul, but continued refinement. CMS exploring new uses of price transparency data beyond patient comparison. 17:46 — Most Critical Policies to Watch Jenna highlights: Modest OPPS payment increase Site-neutral payment expansion 340B remedy offset Drug acquisition cost survey Broader regulatory activity beyond OPPS 18:43 — Available Vizient Resources OPPS Final Rule Summary Government Relations & Public Policy Summaries Advocacy 19:20 — Closing Carolyn thanks Jenna for her insights.

Send us a textIn this episode of the Think Like a Dog podcast, Andreia and Millie break down what reliable recall actually means, and why most dogs aren't truly off-leash trained. They explain why recall must start on leash, how inconsistent expectations and rushed freedom lead to failure, and why practicing in multiple environments is non-negotiable.The conversation also explores the role of thresholds, such as doors, crates, cars, and gates, and how these everyday moments shape impulse control, safety, and overall behavior. Andreia and Millie emphasize that structure creates clarity, and clarity creates freedom. This episode challenges common myths around off-leash training and helps listeners understand the responsibility that comes with giving dogs real-world freedom.Support the showFollow Us On Instagram: @thinklikeadogpodcast @Mirrorimagek9 @OzzieAlbiesFoundation Work with Mirror Image K9 here: https://www.mirrorimagek9.com/contactusBe Our Guest: https://www.thinklikeadogpodcast.com Learn More About The Best Chance Program: https://www.ozziealbiesfoundation.org/

At the Threshold is a short arts–health monologue that explores Alzheimer's through time, pause, and listening. Drawing on lived observation, personhood thinking, and the experience of apraxia, the piece focuses not on loss of memory, but on moments where action, recognition, and agreement arrive out of sequence — and sometimes return. Structured around the sound of wind moving through a room, the monologue invites the listener to stand in the space before decisions are made: where consent is not refusal, stillness is not absence, and waiting becomes a form of care. This work sits between theatre, medical humanities, and sound piece. It is an invitation to imagine the other — not as someone disappearing, but as someone navigating changing thresholds of access, timing, and recognition. Listeners are invited, at the end, to close the door if they wish.

Solo Podsnack: Host, Shanta Generally;The New Year is often treated like a reset button—but what if it's actually a threshold? In this episode, Crossing the Threshold: What You're Carrying Into 2026 (and What You're Meant to Set Down), we explore a gentler, more conscious way of entering the New Year—one rooted in discernment, awareness, and energetic maturity rather than pressure or resolutions. I share a personal reflection on how decluttering, cleaning with intention, and releasing what no longer served me became a powerful practice of preparation—one that couldn't be rushed and didn't need perfection. We also talk about:Why the New Year doesn't require a complete reinventionThe spiritual significance of thresholds and conscious crossingsSetting intentions instead of resolutionsCord cutting as a mindful practice of completion and releaseHow mindfulness supports real, everyday life—not just quiet momentsIf you're standing at the doorway of a new season, this episode invites you to pause, reflect, and cross with intention.

As one year comes to a close and another has not yet begun, this meditation invites you into the quiet in-between — the threshold. You'll be guided to reflect on the year behind you: how you showed up, how it felt to move through it, and what you're carrying as it comes to an end. There is nothing to fix or resolve here — only gentle noticing. From this place, you'll be invited to set something down with care, and then rest in the spacious pause before what comes next. Before stepping forward, we'll anchor into a single word — a quality to carry with you into the new year. Let this be a soft closing, a moment of presence, and a gentle beginning.

You don't have to know exactly where you're going to start walking toward it.In this episode of Stay Magic, Sara Walka shares the magic of Capricorn season and why this energy is perfect for casting a vision you can't fully see yet. She also reflects on 10 years of The Sisters Enchanted (!) and the seeds she planted back in 2016 that she never could have predicted would grow into this.If you're afraid of getting your long-term vision "wrong," or you're stuck because you don't have all the answers, this one's for you.In This Episode:What is Capricorn energy good for?Capricorn is the energy of foundations, devotion, and the long game. It's not about quick wins, it's about planting seeds for things that need time to grow: ideas, finances, relationships, wisdom, and identity shifts. This is the perfect season to think beyond the year ahead and ask yourself what you want to devote your energy to over time.What does the sea goat symbolize?Capricorn is represented by the sea goat, a creature with hooves on the mountaintop (the long view, what we can see) and a fish tail in the ocean depths (the unknown, what we can't predict). This symbol reminds us to hold our visions loosely: trust where you're headed, even when you can't see the full picture.What is a Saturn return?Saturn takes about 29.5 years to move through all twelve zodiac signs. When Saturn returns to the sign it was in when you were born (around age 29, 59, and 88), it often marks a major shift in what you're devoted to and how you see your life's structure. These are powerful turning points worth reflecting on.How do I cast a long-term vision when I don't know the outcome?You don't need a detailed plan, you need a felt sense of what you want to devote yourself to. Create a sacred space, a talisman, a sticky note, or a simple reminder of that energy. The Capricorn invitation is to do the work, trust the process, and let the path reveal itself.Journal Prompts for Capricorn Season:
As we enter a new year, consider this powerful question: What potential within you has yet to be revealed? What would it mean to draw from your inner resources something unprecedented, to become more than you have been until now?That is a transformative way to enter a new year.Life lives in three dimensions: past, present, and future. Growth means honoring where we've been, understanding where we are, and daring to envision who we can become—materially, emotionally, spiritually, and in our relationships.So on this threshold moment, standing between what was and what can be, ask yourself: What is waiting to be unleashed?Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson for this special New Year's program as we explore how to unlock the potential within you that has yet to be expressed. This is your moment to step beyond who you were and begin becoming who you are meant to be.

In this episode of a special series of the podcastWalk Talk Listen, Maurice Bloem is joined by Lewis Cardinal, an Indigenous leader, teacher, and bridge-builder whose work centers on relationship—to land, to spirit, and to one another. This conversation is part of Crossing Thresholds: Religion, Resilience & Climate Migration, a special series that brings research on climate, faith, and human mobility into dialogue with lived wisdom from communities on the frontlines. While rooted in evidence, the series remains true to the spirit of Walk Talk Listen: creating space for connection and for leaders who are working—often quietly and patiently—to make the world more just, more sustainable, step by step. Lewis reflects on how climate change is experienced not only as environmental disruption, but as a disturbance of balance that is deeply cultural and spiritual. He speaks about the disappearance of lakes, shifting patterns of water, and what it means for Indigenous communities when land that carries memory, ceremony, and identity is under threat. Throughout the conversation, Lewis returns to the role of ceremony—not as something symbolic or abstract, but as a practical and spiritual response to imbalance. Ceremony, he explains, helps communities remember who they are, how they belong to the land, and how relationships can be restored even in times of great disruption. At the heart of Lewis's reflections is a worldview grounded in relationship: resilience not as infrastructure or technology, but as connection—built over generations, rooted in responsibility, kinship, and care. His insights echo a core finding of the Climate, Faith & Migration research: that communities are already responding with deep wisdom, long before global systems take notice. This episode invites listeners to slow down, listen carefully, and reconsider what resilience really means in a changing climate. For the full report of this research check this link.

What if the longer periods of darkness during winter could be our teacher? In this episode, host Elizabeth Mintun reflects on stillness, renewal, and possibility during late December. Drawing from timeless wisdom - the Northern European tradition of the Twelve Nights and the Inuit story of Sedna's descent into the deep - Elizabeth explores how darkness, pause, and reflection are essential parts of growth. These stories illuminate the ways that slowing down, observing inner patterns, and cultivating clarity prepare us for meaningful beginnings.This episode is perfect for anyone seeking calm, grounding, and mindful presence during a season that can feel emotionally heightened, complex, or tender.Key TakeawaysBy honoring the quiet and slowing down, you create space for clarity, renewal, and the unfolding of what's next.Though the spaces of uncertainty during times of change, transition, or decision-making can be quite uncomfortable, it can be very helpful to breathe through the discomfort rather than trying to “hop over it”. Notice if you're experiencing a push for “resolutions” and see how possible it might be to offer yourself ease and open curiosity about how you'd like to unfold in the coming year. Notice what emerges inwardly as you practice this curiosity and openness.

January 2026 opens with an extraordinary astrological landscape — one that invites reflection, choice, and conscious participation.In this episode, we explore a rare continuation of out-of-bounds planetary activity, with the Moon, Mercury, Venus, and Mars all operating beyond their usual limits in the opening days of the year. When planets go out of bounds, they behave with fewer internal restraints, offering powerful opportunities to act, create, decide, and respond in new ways — if we're paying attention.You'll hear about: What out-of-bounds planets mean in astrology, and how to work with them intentionally How Mercury, Venus, and Mars out of bounds in Capricorn may challenge habits, plans, and self-control Why Cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn) are especially activated this month Emotional intelligence as a resource while the Moon repeatedly goes out of bounds in Cancer How different Cardinal signs may experience these energies internally and relationally January also carries the final phase of the Saturn–Neptune conjunction in Pisces, a long transit associated with disillusionment, endings, grief, realism, and the reshaping of dreams. As Neptune prepares to leave Pisces for the last time in our lifetime, this episode reflects on what it means to allow something to dissolve — and how acceptance can quietly prepare the ground for a new foundation.Along the way, we draw inspiration from music and myth, including reflections on Roy Orbison, whose Saturn–Neptune signature speaks poignantly to the tension between dreams and reality.This forecast also covers: A powerful run of stelliums from Capricorn into Aquarius A rare six-planet, double-sign stellium around January 19 How to work with intense concentrations of planetary energy through focus and leadership A brief but meaningful opposition to Jupiter, highlighting themes of polarization, excess, and negotiation The shift from Capricorn's managerial intelligence to Aquarius' visionary design This episode is best enjoyed as a contemplative listen — whether you're reflecting on your own chart, navigating change in your life, or simply tuning into the larger collective moment as we cross fully into 2026.To explore these themes further, you're invited to join upcoming conversations and webinars featured on the Astrology University events calendar.Take care of yourself, stay connected to what matters, and remember: astrology doesn't tell us what will happen — it helps us understand how to meet what's happening with greater awareness, choice, and compassion.

Thresholds and portals aren't just witchy buzzwords, they're happening all around you, every single day. In this episode of Stay Magic, Sara Walka breaks down what thresholds and portals actually mean, why this post-Yule, pre-New Year liminal space is so potent, and how to stop sleepwalking through the crossings of your life.Whether you're walking through a doorway, making a decision, or standing at a life-changing moment, this is your invitation to bring presence, intention, and a little magic to the in-between.In This Episode:What is a threshold?A threshold is a crossing - the moment you move from what was to what will be. We experience thresholds constantly: walking through doors, making choices, entering new life phases like marriage, divorce, birth, death, or identity shifts. Most of us rush through them without stopping to honor what we're leaving behind or consciously choosing what we're stepping into.What is a portal?If a threshold is the crossing, a portal is what happens during the crossing. It's the liminal, in-between space - one foot here, one foot there - where everything feels a little blurry, a little suspended. Think of labor before birth, the swirl before a wedding, or right now: the days between Yule and New Year's when time itself feels mushy.Why does this matter right now?We've just crossed the Winter Solstice threshold, and we're sitting in portal energy until we fully step into the new year. This is the perfect time to shake out your energy, reflect on what was, and consciously choose what's next—instead of just floating through.How can I bring magic to thresholds and portals?Start by noticing them. Pause at doorways. Honor what you're leaving behind before stepping forward. Use this portal time to let your energy settle, see what shakes loose, and approach the new year with intention rather than autopilot.Timestamps:0:00 – Welcome + Merry Christmas!1:15 – What is a threshold?3:42 – Everyday thresholds you're missing5:30 – What is a portal?7:18 – How portals show up in life (birth, death, marriage, right now)9:45 – What to do in a portal (hint: let it vibe)11:30 – Why this matters for your magic13:00 – Enchanted Journey Membership: Thresholds & Portals theme for 202614:15 – Your invitation for this portal timeJournal Prompts for This Portal Time:

We are still recovering from the laughs at the end of this episode! Before getting to that story, this one had a great training discussion on improving threshold performance. We dug down into why it's more complex than just doing threshold workouts, and how you can put it into practice.There was also a new study on VO2 and its relation to aerobic and lactate thresholds. We broaden it out to address recent conversations on VO2 and longevity. David went for a joke that almost ended the podcast altogether. You know, the usual.And this one was full of great topics! Other topics: the hot tub science experiment, Megan's inclusion on the Singletrack list for course records of the year, the most hilarious year-end list, David's fueling realization, the continuation of the shoe saga, a study on breakfast and metabolic health, the Roast My Strava app, self-care gifts, how to run strides, peeing in longer races, overpronation and shoe choices, dressing in winter, rowing as cross-training, and the most beautiful Listener Corner message.It ended with a story that we have been holding in for a full year.
