Air Date: 8/1/2026 Today we investigate how the argument moved from what the Supreme Court decides to whether the Court should be rebuilt. Only about one in five Americans has strong confidence in the Court, and the proposals on the table would end lifetime seats, set fixed terms, and add judges across the federal bench. We're arguing that these reforms are necessary for a functioning democracy. Full Show Notes Transcript Be part of the show!

Edward Brady is a CFA, Realtor®, Certified Regulatory Compliance Professional, and former SEC examiner who spent 25 years protecting the integrity of U.S. financial markets. After conducting hundreds of examinations of broker-dealers and investment advisors, he now helps investors simplify financial decisions through timeless wealth-building principles. In this episode, Edward shares lessons from his career at the SEC, explains why most people misunderstand compounding, and breaks down the four pillars of his STAR framework for building lasting financial security. On this episode we talk about: Edward's journey from aspiring real estate professional to spending 25 years investigating the financial industry at the SEC. Why diversification protects more than your portfolio—it protects your confidence as an investor. The STAR framework: Savings, Time, Assets, and Real Returns. How taxes, fees, inflation, and investment structure quietly impact long-term wealth. Why patience and compounding—not chasing quick wins—are the foundation of financial freedom. Top 3 Takeaways Long-term wealth is built by consistently saving, allowing time for compounding, and making thoughtful investment decisions—not by chasing get-rich-quick opportunities. Diversification isn't just about reducing risk; it helps investors maintain the confidence to stay invested through market volatility. Your net returns are what truly compound. Minimizing taxes, fees, and unnecessary costs can dramatically improve your financial future. Notable Quotes "Diversification protects your confidence in taking risk." "Only your net returns compound. What you keep is what grows." "If you understand the principles that affect your returns, you're much better able to protect yourself."

We spend a lot of our lives searching.Searching for success. Happiness. Security. The next achievement. The next stage of life. The thing that will finally make everything feel complete.The writer of Ecclesiastes spent a lifetime chasing those things—and came to a surprising conclusion. Pleasure wasn't enough. Work wasn't enough. Wisdom wasn't enough. Even success couldn't carry the weight of a meaningful life.This week, we explored where meaning is actually found. Not in having all the answers, but in learning to recognize God's presence in the ordinary moments we're often too busy to notice.Because maybe the life we're searching for has been closer than we imagined all along.Key TakeawaysEcclesiastes gives language to the wonder and struggle of being human.Achievement, pleasure, and success cannot ultimately satisfy our deepest longings.God has placed eternity in the human heart.Spiritual practices help us become aware of God's presence, not earn God's approval.Meaning grows as we learn to recognize that God is already with us.Key MomentsWhy Ecclesiastes opens with "Everything is meaningless."The search for meaning through pleasure, work, wisdom, and success."A time for everything" as a description of life, not a prescription.God has "placed eternity in our hearts."Learning to see God's presence in ordinary life."Beautiful and terrible things will happen. Don't be afraid. I'm with you."ScriptureEcclesiastes 1Ecclesiastes 3Ecclesiastes 12ReflectionWhere have you been looking for meaning—and what would change if you began looking for God's presence instead?ConnectEcclesiastes doesn't pretend life is simple. It gives us permission to wrestle with the questions while reminding us that God's presence is not something we have to earn or chase. Sometimes the invitation is simply to slow down long enough to recognize that he has been with us all along.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Connect with us:

In this episode of The GaryVee Audio Experience, I talk about why you're not lost in life, you're just early in the process. I share why the biggest reason you don't know what you want to do is you haven't tasted enough things, and why you're worried about finding it too fast. I also discuss why youth trades on time while age trades on experience, and why everybody in their 20s is judging themselves way too early.You'll learn about:• Why You're Not Lost in Life• Tasting Enough Things• Patience in Your 20s• Time vs. Experience• Post-University Reality

Ep. 1023 - It's eight days into training camp. There's less than a week before the Cardinals' preseason opener. Yet, there's six weeks before the Cardinals play their first game of the regular season. In other words, there's time. Time to determine roles. That was the message conveyed by rookie running back Jeremiyah Love on Friday. In his mind, he's proven nothing yet despite the high expectations that come with being the third overall pick. Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck discuss what Love had to say in addition to the comments made by Tyler Allgeier the day before. And while nothing has been determined publicly about how Love and Allgeier will be used this season, that doesn't stop Craig and Dani from speculating. Plus, the two give their top takeaways from what was another padded practice earlier in the day.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We held back for a couple of weeks. We debated about what to do. But we finally said FUGGIT it's time to pod, even if it's a long meandering one! FOR OUR 200th EPISODE FOLKS!Hoagie Mouth is BACK with the biggest takes on the biggest news to hit Philly in years. Lebron James is now a Philadelphia 76er. WILD doesn't even begin to cover it! We delve deep into the moves that the squad has made in the offseason. And now we have the all time leading NBA scorer on our team...for what, maybe THREE YEARS? Kinda crazy. Next up - Eagles training camp thoughts as Hurts shows up to lead this team into another winning season. Does he have the brotherhood of the locker room all locked up? Or is he NOT one of the "dudes" on the team? Do we have an all-time defense? We just might. First preseason game is in 2 weeks, if you can frickin believe it. GO BIRDS.And lastly (because, um, they are playing like it), the reeling Phils as they look to solve, like, all sorts of holes in the hull at the same time. Will the bullpen meltdown this game? CHECK. Did we score 17 runs one game and then no more than 2 for the next five games? YOU BETCHA. Are we STILL talking about getting Byron Buxton for all of our farm prospects? HELLS YES. Time to get hot in August, Phils....or else we might be on the outside looking in. Insane to think that's the path, when we were riding so high at the ASG.Here's to 2000 more shows! Thank you for your patronage of our little sporty pod.Email: hoagiemouthpod@gmail.comIG: @hoagiemouthpod

Cory Morgan (Pastor of Modern Worship & Young Adults), "But God", Children's Time, Modern Worship Praise Team (11:15 Service).       1.  And you were dead in the trespasses and sins  2.  in which you once walked, following the course[a] of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience—  3.  among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the flesh and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind.  4.  But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us,  5.  even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved—  6.  and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,  7.  so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.  8.  For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God,  9.  not a result of works, so that no one may boast.  10.  For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.       (Ephesians 2:1-10 ESV)

Tom shares how walking away from a successful legal career taught him that waiting for certainty often keeps us from taking the very steps that lead to growth. Together, they discuss the cost of inaction, learning to let go of other people's opinions, changing the trajectory of your family legacy, and why being fully present with your spouse and children is one of the greatest investments you'll ever make. Whether you're facing a career decision, feeling stuck, or simply wanting to live with greater purpose, this conversation will encourage you to stop waiting for the "perfect time" and start making intentional choices today.   Episode Highlights: Stop waiting for certainty—action creates clarity. Don't let other people's opinions dictate your future. Choose presence with your family over the pursuit of success. Build a legacy you'll be proud to look back on.   Quotes from this Conversation: Tom Pfeiffer "We always think you need certainty before action. But I think it's the opposite." "We never really contemplate the cost of inaction. What did I miss by not doing that?" "Far too often, you'll look back when you're 60, 70, or 80 years old and say, 'Man, I wish I did that.'" "I honestly stopped caring what people think. It's a daily practice, but it's life-changing." "Write down the names of the people whose opinions actually matter to you. I'll bet you're done in 30 seconds." "The majority of people who have an opinion about what you're doing are usually just afraid to do it themselves." "I was more afraid of staying where I was and not being a present dad than I was of making the change." "It's not going to say 'JD' or 'Doctor' on your tombstone. It's going to say father, husband, son. Those are the things that matter." "There are moments in life that are the last time you'll ever do something—and most of the time, you don't even know it." "Sports are a vehicle for life. You have to be okay with adversity because that's where growth happens." "You have to be okay with delayed gratification. You're going to crawl, then walk, then jog, then run." "The version of you that you present every day is the driving factor behind the life you build."   Dr. Kim Kimberling "There's such a profound satisfaction that comes from being the person who changes your family lineage." "Most people don't think about us nearly as much as we think they do." "If they're not on your list, don't give their opinion power over your life." "Your spouse and your kids will know if you're not being who God created you to be." "What's really important is the dash between the dates. What did you do with your time?" "You can always find time for your family if you decide they're a priority." "Your kids won't remember the career you built. They'll remember that you were there." "If you're becoming the person God created you to be, everyone around you benefits." Time to Talk About it: Where in your life are you waiting for certainty before taking a step of faith, and what might happen if you took action instead? Whose opinions have the biggest influence on your decisions, and are those the people whose voices should matter most? If your spouse or children described what you prioritize with your time, what would they say—and does that align with the legacy you want to leave?

Too many business owners think their next sale is hiding behind a bigger ad budget or more leads, when in reality the real money is in the leads they've already generated, but never properly followed up with. Prospects say they're interested, timing gets in the way, and then fear, procrastination, and disorganization quietly choke off potential revenue. Today's guest, Wanda Allen of Follow Up Sales Strategies, has helped business owners, sales professionals, and especially realtors transform “I meant to call them” into a simple, systematic follow-up habit that consistently converts more existing leads into paying clients. In this episode of Marketer of the Day, Wanda breaks down why follow-up is the real leverage point in your sales process, and why the most powerful, underused tool is still the phone. She explains how a five-minute conversation can replace days of emails and DMs, uncover real objections, and build genuine prospect loyalty long before someone becomes a paying customer. Rather than chasing more leads or bigger ad budgets, Wanda shows you how to focus on the opportunities already in your pipeline. Wanda shares the three fundamentals of effective follow-up: adopting the right mindset, consistently using a CRM, and making follow-up a true priority instead of something you “get to later.” She unpacks the hidden fears that keep people stuck, fear of rejection, of being pushy, of not knowing what to say, and reframes follow-up as a professional obligation, not a nuisance. With research showing that 80% of sales happen between the 5th and 12th contact while 90% of sellers quit after two, she explains why simply staying in the game longer can make you the “last one standing” who wins the business. https://youtu.be/TJrC609Yz4E?si=Ap97ggtawja_Amet You'll hear how Wanda's systems-based approach has helped clients triple their sales just by getting serious about follow-up routines, tightening their processes, and reframing “I have so much follow-up to do” from a burden into a sign of opportunity. She also shares a powerful mindset rule you can apply to both sales and life: when you feel like you can't do one more call or push-up, do two. If you're ready to get over your discomfort, stop apologizing for doing your job, and turn your existing leads into real revenue, Wanda's strategies will give you the structure and confidence to follow through. Quotes: “The salesperson that follows up and continues to follow up is the one that's going to get the business, because when that prospect is ready, the one who followed up is the one who's going to get the call.” “When you have a lot of follow-up work to do, that shouldn't stress you out; it should put a spring in your step. It means you've got opportunities in front of you.” “If your job is to bring in more business, you have to follow up. When you're following up, you're doing your job; that's called professionalism.” Contact Details: Visit Follow-Up Sales Strategies to Turn More Conversations Into Closed Deals Connect with Wanda Allen on LinkedIn for Practical Follow-up Strategies and Sales Tips Ready to Close More Deals with Smarter Follow-up?

What a month! My AUDIO Host cut off the end of this episode. When I replaced the file, the podcastchers did not update. TRY TWO for those of you who did not listen to it on Youtube by now! Today, I want to talk to you about navigating homestead abundance when it feels like everything is happening at once: planting for fall, processing an abundant tomato harvest, livestock needing extra support in the heat, and personal things ramping up in the background. But mostly, today is about 120 pounds of tomatoes that appeared here yesterday during a week when I won't be around. We will also cover our usual Tuesday segments. Featured Event The Art of Containment: Practical Livestock Fencing, August 8th at 10am at the Holler Homestead in Lancaster, TN. Tickets ar $50, grab yours here All Holler Homestead Events: https://livingfreeintennessee.com/events/  Sponsor 1: DiscountMylarBags.com Sponsor 2: AgoristTaxAdvice.com/LFTN Tales From The Prepper Pantry 120 Pounds of Tomatoes Peaches: Final Harvest  ¼ bushel of green beans off 5 plants Time to plant the fall garden if you have not - for real, it is time! Moving from paper goods to washables where it makes sense Frugality Tip Say yes, but lean on community Operation Independence Seeking Farm Sponsors for our Farm To Table Dinner in September - how that works. Tomatoes All At Once Geraldines Story from A is For Cod-Wada: https://www.amazon.com/coda-wada-Geraldine-Duncann/dp/B0006YH9M2 THE MOMENT EVERY HOMESTEADER WAITS FOR: Michelle from Trippy Acres has too many tomatoes this is the day EVERY homesteader waits for - the moment someone says, can you take all this (WHATEVER) off my hands - and that whatever is a thing you love. Adjusted Monday schedule to harvest Admitted I wasnt processing last night to maintain health, but kept them all cool where? In my livingroom on a fold out table Processed them today - 120 pounds or so of tomatoes. A FAMILIAR RHYTHM: SORT - CUT - FREEZE - REPEAT GOAL is not homestead processing perfection, it is food spoilage stabilization. Works well post freezer: canned sauce, ketchup, salsa, stewed, freeze dried Must happen from fresh: Sundried, fresh Partial processing now helps future winter canning flow well Core and cut smaller to make it easier to process later as sauce Skins come off easily after freezing for stewed but before thawing, so store tomatoes you plan to skin as a single layer and only cored, not sliced smaller Dice the tomatoes you want for salsa in salsa batch sizes so that you can pull tomatoes for salsa straight from the freezer into the salsa pot Reducing sauce without heat by freezing and canned tomato water Keep Heat Outside Dehydrate and crockpot reduce sauces outside under cover (assuming you don't have a bear problem) to save adding heat inside Freezing for winter canning lets you heat the house int he winter while processing your tomatoes - win-win Prioritize ripest tomatoes first and set aside underripe ones to ripen as you go Favorite Tomato recipes Canned Salsa (Scaled for how many peppers I have) Fresh tomato Basil Soup (Make it and freeze for winter) Tomato Cucumber Salad Fresh Tomato and Meat Sauce Sliced Tomato with, salt and pepper, basil and a balsamic reduction Dried tomato in olive oil and garlic Freeze dried tomato powder Canned tomato sauce Canned stewed tomatoes if I am in a hurry Tomato cheese fry pies One of the things that can be hard to communicate to people about living a homesteaders lifestyle is that you will have times where everything seems to be happening at once.  Like for me right now: I need to be in Nashville for a few days managing my rental property, my mobility is coming back so I am working on a backlog from my injury and also setting a foundation for a fall garden, the livestock does best when they are handled daily even though they can sort of go on auto pilot. We just finished a large peach harvest, there are saturday farmers markets to do, our events are happing every other week or so, and then, 120 pounds of tomatoes appeared.  You build the skills over years on a homestead to tap into something like this and run with it.  I used to drop everything for days to do projects like this and that is how I learned a better way. One that preserves the food while preserving the reason I am on the homestead: to live in concert with nature, build abundance from the land, and enjoy the beauty of this place. So if you are new to homesteading, it may feel like lots of pressure at this time of year with the pest pressure, the weeds and the harvest, but it doesn't have to be. And being frantic all the time isn't why you are doing this, is it? Make It A Great Week

In ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK (1981), John Carpenter gambled his biggest budget yet on transforming a former Disney child star into the ultimate anti-authority badass. Part 1 of our deep diver covers the genesis of Snake Plissken, starting with Carpenter pulling a shelved script out of his car trunk to satisfy a studio contract. We look at the fight to cast Kurt Russell over established tough guys like Charles Bronson, the bizarre brilliance of Donald Pleasence as the President, and the punishing reality of shooting entirely at night in the rubble of East St. Louis.

“Evil is reductive. But the impact of the business is evil, even if the intent isn't.” — Andy Hunter on Amazon Network effects transformed Amazon from a startup internet bookshop into today's $2.44 trillion everything store. The more ubiquitous its affiliate program became, the more powerful Amazon became. But, in today's digital economy, winner-take-all might not be winner-always-take-all. These network effects, you see, can be subverted. They might even be used as weapons against a seemingly dominant player like Amazon. Take, for example, Bookshop.org. Founded by Andy Hunter in 2020, this online bookstore has aggregated 3,000 independent bookstores, these affiliates contributing to a counter-Amazon network that already does 2% of Amazon's book business and will, within the next thirty days, pass $50 million distributed to local bookstores. When Hunter originally pitched the idea to Silicon Valley investors, they asked him if he could beat Amazon on price or speed. No. Then you don't have a chance, they told him, because Americans only care about price and speed. But they were wrong. Since Bookshop.org launched in 2020, American bookstores have grown from 1,900 to 3,300, with 90% of these independents joining Bookshop.org and 98% of booksellers polling the company as a positive force. His is a winner-share-all marketplace where stores keep the full profit of their own sales, while a $4.5 million annual profit pool flows to any real brick-and-mortar ABA bookstore. Nobody gets rich, Hunter says, but everybody does okay. Hunter suspects that if Bookshop.org grows to take 5% of Amazon's book market, things might turn nasty. Could Amazon just buy Bookshop.org, I asked. No, Hunter responded, all his investors signed a clause barring a sale to any major US retailer. So even if I got hit by an Amazon delivery truck, he explained, his mission couldn't be undone. So is Amazon evil? Not exactly evil, he explains, since evil requires malignant intent. But Amazon is more like fishermen who overfish until the stock collapses and wrecks their ecosystem beyond repair. That classic tragedy of the commons. Hence Bookshop.org's anti-Prime campaigns, which used Amazon's “discount” holiday as a way of generating an extra $1.2 million for its affiliate bookstores. Hunter wants to replace Amazon's seemingly infinite scalability with a more moral kind of scale. He imagines a Bookshop.org for everything from hardware stores and art supplies to bikes and toys. Silicon Valley's conventional winner-take-all economics would be replaced by a Robin Hood style winner-share-all model. Except for our tech bro friends, I suspect we would all be wealthier for it. Five Takeaways •       “Americans Only Care About Price and Speed.” That was the verdict of a 2019 conference call with twenty Silicon Valley angel investors: if Bookshop couldn't beat Amazon on price or speed, it had no chance. Hunter's counter-pitch: enough people care about their values when they shop — if supporting a local bookstore is made just as easy. His sharpest insight was the affiliate economy: by 2019 the internet had become one giant funnel pushing every reader toward Amazon, with the New York Times, NPR, BuzzFeed, and celebrity book clubs all earning Amazon kickbacks on their book coverage. Bookshop's universal link gave them an alternative that pays local bookstores instead. Nine months of rejection later, he had cobbled together $750,000 — with the publisher Morgan Entrekin introducing five of the original seven investors.•       Winner-Share-All. Bookshop is a marketplace, like Etsy: over 3,000 bookstores plus affiliates from Literary Hub to The Atlantic to Dakota Johnson's book club. Stores keep the full profit on their own sales; direct sales feed a profit pool — 33 percent of profits, about $4.5 million a year — shared with any real brick-and-mortar bookstore in the American Booksellers Association. Within thirty days, total distributions will pass $50 million. Hunter kept the raise tiny and refused venture capital to protect the mission: a $10 million check would have demanded a 10x return and a sale, and Bookshop's shareholder agreement bars any sale to Amazon, Walmart, or Target. The company runs on a 12.5 percent expense ratio and twelve engineers. Nobody gets rich; everybody does okay.•       The Comeback Numbers. Amazon put over half of America's bookstores out of business in two decades. Since Bookshop launched in 2020, the country has gone from 1,900 bookstores to 3,300 — seventy percent growth — and 73 percent of member stores grew in 2025. The rising tide lifts all boats: Bookshop grew 55 percent last year while stores' own websites grew 25 percent. Ninety percent of American independents have joined, and a poll of 3,000 booksellers found 98 percent view the company positively. Meanwhile Amazon's share of the book market is flat for the first time in twenty-three years. Bookshop has taken about 2 percent of Amazon's book customers — small enough to be useful anti-monopoly evidence, Hunter jokes, but a social movement in the making.•       Not Evil — Worse? Hunter refuses the word “evil”: evil requires malignant intent, and Amazon's managers are merely told to grow profits every quarter. The better analogy is overfishing — blind growth that destroys the ecosystem beyond repair. But the stakes are not merely commercial: bookstores bring authors to communities, raise new generations of readers, and — as the arrest of five Hong Kong booksellers reminds us — stand as the vanguard of free expression. No single company, good or evil, should control a market so essential to human consciousness. As for Bezos, once so interested in climate change: now it's rockets and data centers. “Evil is reductive. But the impact of the business is evil, even if the intent isn't.”•       The AI Flood. Did OpenAI and Anthropic steal from authors? “They were,” Hunter says — a conscious choice that stealing was faster than dealing, and now they're paying up because they got caught, in a race to be first that cuts regulatory, legal, and ethical corners. Meanwhile three times as many books are being added to Amazon each year than before AI — overwhelmingly scam books generated from search trends, uncopyedited, designed to defraud buyers rather than inform them. Bookshop tells its suppliers to keep AI books off the site entirely, with a tiny asterisk for serious poets making artistic investigations of AI. Hunter's standard is simple: these aren't books, they're scams — and no retailer who cares about customers should sell them. Including Amazon. About the Guest Andy Hunter is the founder and CEO of Bookshop.org, the online bookstore that supports local independent bookstores, launched in January 2020 and named by Time one of the year's most influential social-good companies. A longtime literary publisher and entrepreneur, he previously co-founded Electric Literature and Literary Hub. He lives in Brooklyn. References: •       Bookshop.org — the marketplace itself: shop any of 3,000+ independent bookstores, or let your purchase feed the profit pool.•   ...

But, here’s a local story of interest: After seven years of planning, a new seniors lodge will be built in Vulcan to replace the Peter Dawson Lodge, which was built in 1963. According to spokesperson Kelly Nelson, while the Dawson Lodge is reportedly in “really good shape,” it no longer meets current building standards. “The rooms are too small, we have inside rooms without any windows to the outside,” said Nelson, adding seniors don't want to move in until they have a room with a window. The new facility, expected to open in 2028, will have 62 affordable-housing units. Vulcan Mayor Tom Grant said Thursday the new facility will be a “win-win” for the community.

Cory Morgan (Pastor of Modern Worship & Young Adults), "But God", Children's Time, Choir, Blended Worship Praise Team (8:45 Service).       1.  And you were dead in the trespasses and sins  2.  in which you once walked, following the course[a] of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience—  3.  among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the flesh and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind.  4.  But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us,  5.  even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved—  6.  and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,  7.  so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.  8.  For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God,  9.  not a result of works, so that no one may boast.  10.  For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.       (Ephesians 2:1-10 ESV)

Welcome to a new episode of The Way Out Is In: The Zen Art of Living, a podcast series mirroring Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh's deep teachings of Buddhist philosophy: a simple yet profound methodology for dealing with our suffering, and for creating more happiness and joy in our lives. In this episode, Zen Buddhist monk Brother Phap Huu and leadership coach Jo Confino talk about finding beauty and reverence in the most ordinary of things. Jo shares his new book, Between Earth and Sky, which documents his time in Mitla, Mexico, and his journey of deep looking and finding beauty in the seemingly empty land. Brother Phap Huu emphasizes the importance of mindfulness, stopping, and being present to see the wonder in everyday life.The hosts further share the concept of consciousness in everything, and the need for reverence in our habits and interactions. The conversation also touches on reciprocity, the importance of community, and the journey of opening one’s heart through listening and acceptance. The episode concludes with a short meditation guided by Brother Phap Huu, to help listeners ground themselves in the present moment and to recognize the beauty in all life.

It is learning to take a pause and feel the present moment. And feeling the present moment is more important than thinking about the present moment, because, when we attune ourselves into our own body, into our senses, what we see, what we smell, what we hear, what we touch gives us an opportunity to be in touch with life in the very here and now.” “We can sit and look at a tree or even look at a rock and find all of life in that.” “This is it.” “We want to know what’s out in space, but we don’t know what is in our inner space.” “Depending on how we show up, our way of being can shift and change our whole mental formation, our whole consciousness of reality.” “Reverence creates a sense of reciprocity because, when we have reverence, we are in conversation with whatever is in front of us. So when we think of things as objects, we’re looking at them as separate from ourselves. But when we have reverence for things, we see that they are talking to us as well as we are talking to them.” “The beauty of Zen is turning a simple moment into a beautiful ritual.” “Reverence is a manifestation of our mental formations.” “I invite everybody to hold their next cup of tea, or coffee, or orange juice, with two hands. It shifts you into a different space. A simple action with two hands, and I’m fully present. Just like when we join our palms and offer a bow, it represents the body and the mind that come together.”

Millions of people suffer with foot trouble. Some have heel pain when they first get out of bed. Others complain of flat feet or bunions. Athlete's foot is very common, though it doesn't always respond as expected to antifungal medications. Speaking of fungus, toenail fungus can be extremely stubborn. What are your feet trying to tell you about what they need? How can you keep them healthy, especially in the summertime? At The People's Pharmacy, we strive to bring you up to date, rigorously researched insights and conversations about health, medicine, wellness and health policies and health systems. While these conversations intend to offer insight and perspective, the content is provided solely for informational and educational purposes. Please consult your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medical care or treatment. How You Can Listen You could listen through your local public radio station or get the live stream at 7 am EST on Saturday, August 1, 2026, through your computer or smart phone (wunc.org).  Here is a link so you can find which stations carry our broadcast.

What Are Your Feet Trying to Tell You? Most everyone looks forward to summer vacation, but that special time away from the usual routine may pose challenges for your feet. Whether you are hiking in the mountains or running on the beach, you may need to pay attention to your tootsies. Time at the Beach Beach time can inspire long walks on the sand, but soft sand could really put a strain on foot muscles that aren't accustomed to it. Our expert guest, podiatrist Jane Andersen DPM, recommends wearing good running shoes for walking long distances on sand. Choosing to walk where the sand is hard-packed when the tide is low can also be helpful. Possibly the most important but easily overlooked step to protect feet at the beach is to apply sunscreen. The tops of the feet are easily overlooked, but they can burn pretty readily. And if you are planning to spend time sunbathing prone, you might even want to apply sunscreen to the bottoms of your feet. They never see the sun, and walking on sunburned soles could be quite painful. Protecting Bare Feet Another consideration at the beach is how you will get from the parking lot or boardwalk to the water. How hot is the sand? If it is hot enough to burn the soles of your feet, you might consider using water sandals. In general, going barefoot can be risky. Whether you're at the beach, at a campground, in your own backyard or even inside your home, there are potential hazards underfoot. Bits of glass shards, little pieces of wire, tiny pebbles or nails could all cause havoc if they end up embedded in a sole. Protecting your soles by wearing good flip-flops makes a lot of sense. To find a list of flip-flops that provide appropriate arch support as well as sole protection, consult apma.org. Treating Black Toenails During this episode, Joe describes a trip to the beach with a long walk. By the time he removed his shoes, his longest toe had a black toenail that was rather painful. Although the pain faded before too long, it took about a year for the dark color to disappear from the nail. Dr. Andersen suggests that it often takes at least nine months to regrow a toenail. She emphasizes that if the nail turns black due to sudden trauma (like dropping something heavy on the toe), a podiatrist should check it out. Sometimes there is a fracture under that discolored nail that requires medical attention for proper healing. What Is the Story on Flat Feet? Joe has always had flat feet. Perhaps your feet are flat, too. The condition is pretty common. If Joe gets out of a bathtub or swimming pool and leaves footprints, they are almost oval. There is very little indentation in the center. Other people with higher arches may leave footprints that are nearly C-shaped. Flat feet can benefit from arch support such as orthotic inserts for shoes. High arches can also cause trouble, especially if they are linked to a genetic condition called Charcot-Marie-Tooth. It is a nerve disorder that can also lead to muscle weakness. Consequently, people with high arches may also need podiatric care for their feet to stay comfortable and healthy. Plantar Fasciitis Is a Pain The bottoms of your feet have thick connective tissue called fascia that run from the heel to the ball of the foot. Inflammation of this tissue causes pain, typically at the heel but sometimes along the arch. Often, more supportive footgear or special orthotics can help. Getting a shoe with the correct heel drop is important. That is the difference between the height of the shoe at the heel and at the toe. A podiatrist can recommend the most appropriate heel drop for your feet. Stretching is also useful, particularly pulling the toes toward the knee or stretching the calf in a runner's stretch pose and holding for 30 seconds or so. Rolling the bottom of the foot on a frozen water bottle helps with the stretch at the same time that the cold eases the inflammation. Plantar fasciitis is common and treatable. If left untreated, it may last a long time. What Can You Do About Stinky Feet? A couple of listeners shared their experiences with smelly feet, and we asked Dr. Andersen for her opinion. Jan described using a topical erythromycin antibiotic prescription that came as a roll-on. She also got rid of all her stinky shoes and is careful to wear socks that will wick sweat away. Dr. Andersen noted that erythromycin is very effective against a bacterial infection with Corynebacterium minutissimum. This organism glows coral under ultraviolet light and can definitely raise a stink. Sophia wrote about developing smelly feet after walking around in wet shoes. She finally solved the problem by treating her feet with rubbing alcohol. Dr. Andersen agreed that rubbing alcohol could be helpful. So can soaking the feet in a strong solution of tea. Other tips include cleaning the floor of the shower stall frequently and always wearing socks that wick–not cotton, which absorbs sweat but traps the moisture. Acrylic or wool work better. Another tactic is to alternate shoes; don't wear the same shoes day after day but give them at least a day to dry out. How Should You Treat a Sprained Ankle? There has been controversy lately about the standard RICE protocol for a sprain: rest, ice, compression and elevation. Some experts now recommend warmth instead of ice and gentle motion rather than rest immediately after a sprain. Of course, the first step is to ascertain that it is really a sprain and not a fracture. The treatment for those two injuries is completely different and the person suffering the problem may not be able to tell just from the way it feels. An X-ray is prudent. Bunions and Hammer Toes If you don't suffer from bunions, you might not know what they are. In a bunion, the bone that supports the big toe (the metatarsal) moves out of alignment and starts to point more towards the midline of the body. To compensate, the rest of the big toe ends up pointing back toward the rest of the foot. This creates a bump on the edge of the foot that might be painful. There doesn't seem to be any clear correlation between the size of the bump and the amount of pain it causes. Bunions seem to be hereditary, at least to some extent. Conservative management entails choosing footwear with a roomy toe box, not pointy-toed shoes. Podiatrists also correct bunions surgically. They can choose from a wide range of surgical approaches. In hammer toes, one of the toes (typically the second toe) curls over so that the end that would normally face forward points downward. This too can be corrected surgically, but the recovery can be pretty lengthy. A roomy toe box is also a good bet for living with hammer toe. Taking Care of Your Feet We asked Dr. Andersen for general advice, and she suggested that one very important consideration is to buy your athletic shoes in person, preferably at a store that caters to athletes. Buy the proper shoes for your activity; in other words, don't try to play pickleball in running shoes. One nationwide chain that does a good job fitting the shoe to the athlete is Fleet Feet. Locally, she recommends Bull City Running. This Week’s Guest Dr. Jane Andersen, Board Certified, American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery, is in practice at Chapel Hill Foot and Ankle, part of FASMA, Foot and Ankle specialists of the Mid Atlantic, in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.
