Emperor Nero was one of the most reviled and controversial leaders of Ancient Rome. To some, his reign was a breath of fresh air after his unpopular predecessor, and his failings had no more to do with him, than with the unstable infrastructure of Roman government. And yet to others, Nero is inseparable from rumours about his sexual predilections, debauched behaviours, and apparent appetite for murder.  But how did Nero seize the imperial crown while still in his teens? What really happened to ensure his downfall and the ruin of his reputation? And was Nero really as bad as history has painted him? This is a Short History Of Emperor Nero.  A Noiser Production. Written by Dan Smith. With thanks to Greg Woolf, Ronald J.

Send us a textShort Summary: A deep dive into the enigmatic world of sleep, exploring its biological functions, evolutionary origins, and diverse manifestations across different species.About the Guest: Nicola Segata, PhD is a professor at the University of Trento in Italy.Note: Podcast episodes are fully available to paid subscribers on the M&M Substack and on YouTube. Partial versions are available elsewhere.Episode Summary: Dr. Segata explains metagenomics, the study of genetic material from multiple species, and how it has revolutionized microbiome research; microbiome transmission from mother to child; stability and plasticity of the microbiome throughout life stages; obesity and cancer; influence of diet, lifestyle, and medications like antibiotics on microbiome composition.Key Takeaways:Microbiome Variability: The human microbiome varies significantly between individuals and is influenced by genetics, environment, diet, and lifestyle. Thus, personalized approaches to microbiome health may be necessary.Transmission and Acquisition: Microbes are transmitted vertically from mother to child at birth and horizontally through personal interactions. This transmission can influence health outcomes over one's lifetime.Impact of Diet and Drugs: Diet, particularly coffee consumption, can significantly shape the microbiome, with some bacteria growing in response to specific dietary components. Medications like antibiotics and proton pump inhibitors can also markedly alter microbial communities.Health Implications: The microbiome is linked to various health conditions, from metabolic diseases to cancer, with some treatments like fecal microbiota transplantation showing promise in altering microbiome composition for health benefits.Ancient vs. Modern Microbiomes: Studies on ancient microbiomes, like the Iceman's, suggest that modern urban microbiomes differ from those of our ancestors, potentially impacting modern health issues.Related episodes:M&M #178: Microbiome & Gut-Immune Interactions in Obesity & Metabolic Health | June RSupport the showAll episodes (audio & video), show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: MASA Chips—delicious tortilla chips made from organic corn and grass-fed beef tallow.

In this episode of Building Better with Brandon Bartneck, Felix Leach, Associate Professor at the University of Oxford, and Nick Molden, CEO of Emissions Analytics, join the discussion on sustainable transportation. The conversation emphasizes the critical role of mass and distance in determining the environmental impact of transportation, highlighting these as the most important variables for sustainability. Felix and Nick also advocate for a radical reset in public policy and taxation systems to simplify and better align with environmental realities. They discuss the interconnectedness of the transportation ecosystem, the role of consumer choices, and actionable steps toward a more sustainable future. About Building Better: Building Better with Brandon Bartneck focuses on the people, products, and companies creating a better tomorrow, often in the transportation and manufacturing sectors. Previously called the Future of Mobility podcast, the show features real, human conversations exploring what leaders and innovators are doing, why and how they're doing it, and what we can learn from their experiences. Topics include manufacturing, production, assembly, autonomous driving, electric vehicles, hydrogen and fuel cells, leadership, and more. Key Takeaways: Mass and distance are the two most important variables in determining transportation sustainability. Simplicity on the far side of complexity is crucial for effective policies. Current vehicle taxation systems are overly complex and need a reset. Transportation policy must reflect true environmental costs. Consumer choices significantly influence environmental outcomes. Public engagement and education are vital for achieving change.

In 2016, the WHO predicted millions of cases of Zika in America and sparked global panic when the virus was connected to newborn microcephaly – a birth defect causing smaller head size and impaired brain development. But Dr. Randy Bock says Zika was just another pandemic of panic. The physician alleges that no clinical testing existed when cases were first reported and diagnoses relied on simple questionnaires.

Message by Chris Brown on January 11, 2025. "One of the problems I had with the church is that some pastor used the Bible to prove the Bible… that just didn't work for me. Today is my best attempt to share how and why I bought into this book, by doing a Bible study on the Bible without using the Bible."

Lee Harvey Oswald's trip to Mexico is one of the most mysterious aspects of the JFK assassination case, and some say it holds the key to understanding what really happened and who was actually involved. Today's episode Part 10 is the tenth episode in this miniseries  and and concludes what else may have happened that weekend with Oswald and then chronicles  the remaining phone calls that happened on October 1st and October 3rd...which  were detected by the CIA's surveillance system and which notify the Mexico City CIA Station that its a man named Oswald who is seeking a visa to Cuba and to Russia. And a man who had spoken to Russian KGB agent Kostikov who was working at the consulate. Valery Kostikov was the famed KGB agent who was also a member of the 13th Department, a KGB division responsible for sabotage and assassinations. In Part 10, we pick the action back up on Saturday after Oswald completed his visit to the Russian Embassy, made in one last ditch effort to secure a Russian visa.  Oswald befriends a group of students at the nearby University in an attempt to influence the Cuban consulate and gain his Cuban visa. When that doesn't end well, in despair, he buys a ticket home to Dallas.  There were a few other activities that weekend that Oswald purportedly engaged in including some more mundane touristy things like attending a bull fight and some meatier allegations such as the one that he engaged with a group of Cubans and that he also met with Carlos Lechuga. All rumors that have never been verified beyond their original story tell. While the Mexico City Visit is ending for Oswald, the activities of the CIA and its Mexico City Station are just beginning. So stick around and join us in our next episode 248 as we explore what the CIA did next.The evidence in this part of the case is confounding and it may be one of the toughest assignments yet for all of us, including  you, the jury, to sort through it all. Come join us as we review one of the most fascinating story tells regarding the JFK assassination, and as we borrow heavily from so many great researchers including the work of Jefferson Morley who wrote Our Man In Mexico and John Armstrong who wrote Harvey and Lee, two of the most detailed and spellbinding books every written on the JFK assassination. Investigations by others, including John Newman and Peter Dale Scott, and the  HSCA's Lopez Report contribute to the richness of our story tell about  what happened...really...in Mexico City....Even as early as 1964, rumors and serious concerns over  the lone gunman theory and the evidence that might contravene it,  were becoming a major concern for the government and the commission. Conspiracy theories were contrary to the government's stated narrative from the very beginning. This  real-life story is more fascinating than fiction.  No matter whether you are a serious researcher or a casual student, you will enjoy the fact filled narrative and story as  we relive one of the most shocking moments in American History. An event that changed the nation and changed the world forever.

Melissa Stewart, an Assistant Professor of Law at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa's William S. Richardson School of Law, joins Lawfare Managing Editor Tyler McBrien to discuss the International Court of Justice's forthcoming advisory opinion on obligations of states in respect of climate change.Stewart discusses how we got here, the unprecedented level of participation from states and international organizations in written submissions and oral proceedings, and the main arguments put forth during two weeks of those proceedings in December. She also speaks about how, “in the face of limited jurisdictional pathways to pursue direct accountability against the states most responsible for climate change, states are pursuing creative solutions to seek progress before international courts and tribunals”—a phenomenon she coined “jurisdictional ingenuity” in a forthcoming book chapter.Mentioned in this episode:“The ICJ's Advisory Opinion on Climate Change: A Data Analysis of Participants' Submissions,” by Thomas BurriTo receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

My guest today believes that the single biggest problem with our health these days is not that we carry too much fat but that we don't carry enough muscle, and that if we start to focus and prioritise our largest organ – our muscle – we can burn more fat, improve our body composition, decrease our risk of disease and increase our energy levels.

My new feature for The Atlantic magazine is called "The Anti-Social Century." It's a long article that revolves around a simple point: Americans are now spending more time alone than ever. This surging solitude is changing our personalities, our politics, our culture, and our relationships. On this episode, University of Chicago psychologist Nick Epley joins the show to talk about why aloneness matters. We talk about his research on relationships and solitude, on why we need people in our lives, and why sometimes we disregard or misunderstand that need, and why "social fitness" is so critical to a good life.
