Covering the Commonwealth ft. Hill City Howlers, U of LBG and UVA by Ed Lane

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the Quantum Health Connection Podcast, Heather and Vanessa explore the fascinating science and emerging quantum biology of melanin, and why it's so much more than skin pigment.Melanin is often thought of only in terms of tanning or skin color, but it is actually a deeply intelligent biological system that helps regulate light, protect against oxidative stress, support the nervous system, and potentially even influence cellular energy production.Vanessa shares her recent experience in St. Lucia, where she successfully built solar adaptation and spent time in intense tropical sun without burning, highlighting the power of gradually building melanin through intentional UVA and UVB exposure rather than relying solely on sunscreen and sun avoidance.In this conversation, we discuss:☀️ Why melanin is much more than skin pigment: it acts as a light regulator; antioxidant; and biological semiconductor ☀️ The difference between UVA and UVB light, and why UVA is essential for melanin production and solar adaptation ☀️ How gradual, strategic sun exposure helps your body build its own natural protection ☀️ Why modern indoor living, excessive sunscreen use, and artificial light disrupt healthy melanin production ☀️ The difference between eumelanin and pheomelanin, and how your melanin type influences sun tolerance ☀️ Melanin's role in the brain, eyes, gut, and immune system ☀️ Emerging research on melanin's potential role in energy production and quantum biology ☀️ How melanin may help bind heavy metals and protect against neurodegeneration, including conditions like Parkinson's disease ☀️ The connection between sunlight, melanin, improved food tolerance, vision, and nervous system resilience ☀️ Why balance vs fear is the key to developing a healthy relationship with the sunWe also discuss cultural attitudes around tanning and sun avoidance, the importance of respecting your individual solar capacity, and how reconnecting with natural light may be one of the most overlooked foundations of health.Melanin is not just pigment. It is part of your body's built-in solar intelligence that helps you interact with light, energy, and the environment in ways we are only beginning to understand.Learn how to partner with the sun, so your body can remember how to thrive!For more about melanin, blue blockers, quantum biology, and light-based healing, follow Vanessa's substack:.https://substack.com/@brightlightwellnessVanessa's Get Your Light Right Masterclass & Ebook:https://payhip.com/b/T9h1xSupport the showFind Heather:Book with HeatherHeather's Free Product Guide with Discount CodesHeather's Instagram Find Vanessa:Vanessa's Instagram Vanessa's Website Free Product Guide with Discount CodesFree Homeopathy at Home Guide

UVA missing opportunity with invisible AD Carla Williams + Fast 5 ft. CFP wishes by Ed Lane

JMU's spring sports season is officially in the books — and Jack and Bennett are handing out grades. They break down where JMU lacrosse, softball, and baseball stand heading into the offseason, why Virginia Tech and UVA have made life harder for JMU softball, and whether anyone should be fired (short answer: no, and here's why). Then it's time for the thing JMU fans actually came for — FOOTBALL. Jack and Bennett dig into the new Class of 2027 recruiting Big Board (available now at buymeacoffee.com/jmusportsnews), break down the men's basketball transfer portal class, and debate whether Billy Napier's 2026 schedule sets JMU up for a 10-win season — or just makes the Sun Belt look soft. Plus: listener mailbag questions, the Royal Rivalry debate nobody asked for, a rant on six-year college athletes, and more.

In this episode, we discuss: Bridging the Genetic Gap: Looking critically at how horticultural research transfers between high-THC cultivars and industrial hemp. The 13-Hour Photoperiod: Breaking the traditional 12/12 cycle to achieve a 39%–50% yield increase and a 9% THC boost. Linear Light Scaling: The direct relationship between light intensity and flower yield scaling all the way up to 1,800 micromoles under ambient CO2. The UV Reality Check: Why modern high-THC genetics actually showed a decrease in final cannabinoid and terpene content under supplemental UVA and UVB. Light Response Curves: Why relying on a single leaf measurement to guide your facility's light saturation point is fundamentally flawed. The Veg-to-Flower Transition: Practical SOPs for adjusting PPFD and DLI safely without shocking your canopy. Controlled Deficit Irrigation: How a single, targeted late-flower drought stress event triggers a 12%–13% spike in final THC and CBD content.

This week we sparked up Black Maple from Dragonfly, and right out of the jar… yeah, the name tracks.Dark, sweet, maple syrup vibes. Not the fake pancake syrup from childhood. We're talking the thick, rich, Costco real-maple kind that makes you question every breakfast decision you've made before now.Black Maple comes in as a true hybrid bred from Dulce de Uva x Sherbanger, and this one hit interesting.For us, the effects came on pretty head-first. Forehead, temples, behind the eyes, that “okay I definitely feel this” pressure, but without tipping into couch-lock territory. It had some lift thanks to the pinene presence, but didn't fully commit to being an energetic daytime strain either.Basically? It lives in that weird middle ground.Top terpenes:Beta-CaryophylleneLimoneneAlpha-PineneBeta-PineneCannabinoid profile included trace amounts of:Delta-9 THC, THCV-A, CBG, CBC-A, CBD-A, and CBG-ATranslation? More going on than just “big THC number go brrrr.”And honestly… that became part of the conversation.Because somewhere in this episode we started talking about how chasing the highest THC is still one of the dumbest shopping habits in cannabis.Black Maple wasn't bad. Not even close.It looked great.Smelled fantastic.Flavor was solid.Effects got better as it settled in.But compared to some strain combos we've mixed lately? It felt like this one might actually shine more as a pairing strain than a solo act.Which led us down a whole rabbit hole of cannabis blending, terp stacking, entourage effect conversations, and whether more people should be intentionally mixing strains instead of always hunting the newest hype jar.Best reported tendencies from this one?HappyRelaxedFocusedMild pain reliefWould we smoke it again? Yeah.Would we reach for it over some of our favorite custom combos? Probably not.But if you've had Black Maple from a different grower or batch, your mileage may absolutely vary because cannabis is wildly batch-dependent.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement. Keep the conversation going.We keep a running list of tools and brands we personally enjoy and actually use.Find everything in one place here:

Covering the Commonwealth ft. JMU, UVA, Washington Commanders by Ed Lane

David approaches microplastic exposure not from a place of fear—but from informed, practical wellness. With a background in public health and a deeply personal journey into cellular health after his late wife's cancer diagnosis, he brings both science and lived experience to the conversation.David holds a MPH from Johns Hopkins, a Masters in BME from the UVA, and a Bachelors in EE and BME from Duke. He founded Mara Labs after his late wife's cancer diagnosis sparked a deep dive into plant-based compounds and cellular protection. His personal health journey led directly to the development of BrocElite®— a stabilized sulforaphane supplement designed to support detoxification, mitochondrial health, and cellular resilience. David has more than 20 years of public health experience on three continents.

The UVA Men's team has officially arrived. We are joined by the powerhouse freshman duo of Thomas Heilman and Maximus Williamson to recap a historic NCAA season that saw the Virginia men jump into the Top 10. Maximus takes us behind the scenes of his legendary 200 Freestyle win from Lane 8 (and the secret tattoo deal he made with Todd DeSorbo), while Thomas breaks down the "stacked" 100 Butterfly final and the intense rivalry and camaraderie at the heart of the Cavalier culture. We dive into the controversial NCAA "No B-Final" format, the reality of swimming relays in the morning, and how this "best recruiting class ever" is handling the massive expectations of the UVA shadow. From 1v1 snipers-only video games to "drippiest coach" awards and chasing Gretchen Walsh's 100 fly times in practice, this episode covers the grit and the fun behind the rise of UVA Men's Swimming.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, a genetic heart disease that can cause sudden cardiac death in young athletes and otherwise healthy adults, is difficult for doctors to predict and monitor.

Vandaag ontmoeten Donald Trump en Xi Jinping elkaar. Hoog op de agenda staan de oorlog in het Midden-Oosten en de economische betrekkingen tussen beide landen. Maar voor Xi is ook een gesprek over de Amerikaanse steun aan Taiwan van groot belang. Vanuit dat eiland wordt dan ook met ingehouden adem gekeken naar de ontmoeting tussen Trump en Xi. Te gast is Jasper Roctus, China- en Taiwan-expert aan de Universiteit Gent. (12:52) In de VS kiezen politici steeds vaker hun kiezers Vandaag gaat de Senaat in de Amerikaanse staat Louisiana stemmen over een nieuwe indeling voor kiesdistricten die de Republikeinen bij de midterm verkiezingen een zetel meer moeten opleveren. In de hele VS worden momenteel grenzen van kiesdistricten politiek gemanipuleerd. Tot voor kort werd dit gezien als een pervers bijeffect van een volkstelling. Maar nu worden in het hele land schaamteloos kaarten opnieuw ingetekend om bij verkiezingen meer zetels te krijgen. We spreken erover met correspondent Thomas de Graeve in Washington en Lou Errens, die aan de UvA is gespecialiseerd in Amerikaans recht. Presentatie: Nadia Moussaid

We eventually get around to breaking down the latest addition to the UVA Basketball rotation on our podcast, but first. Gotta start with how UVA Athletics is stonewalling me on the status of assistant swim team coach Gary Taylor, who is in Year 2 of a probation handed down in 2025 for emotional abuse of athletes at two other schools and a local YMCA. After going into detail on Gary Taylor, we talk UVA hoops, how much it will cost the 1 percent to watch UVA Football play in Brazil, and how far UVA Baseball will get in the NCAA Tournament (spoiler: not very).  

On the latest episode of the CavsCorner Podcast, we discuss UVa's two transfer commits this week and not only how we see each player fitting in but how those additions impact the overall picture for the upcoming season.   Credits: Brad Franklin (@Cavs_Corner) David Spence (@HooDaves) Justin Ferber (@Justin_Ferber)   Visit CavsCorner now!   Sign up for CavsCorner today – Join for $1, plus a complimentary year of access to The Athletic included: https://www.on3.com/sites/cavs-corner/join/

The Munsons are joined once again by returning guest Munson Cori Wallace to break down the fascinating and unpredictable career of Leslie Bibb. We kick things off with her unlikely origin story—winning a modeling competition through Oprah, leaving UVA after just one semester, and diving headfirst into entertainment. Cori even takes us back to watching that moment in real time, along with Bibb's early work on Ryan Murphy's Popular, setting the stage for a career that never quite followed a straight line. From there, we dig into a box office snapshot that starts surprisingly strong… and then falls off a cliff. With entries like See Spot Run, Movie 43, and Midnight Meat Train, it's not hard to see why. We revisit her brief role in Private Parts and wonder if it foreshadowed the types of characters she'd take on, before diving into The Skulls and how that role may have shaped her trajectory—complete with some very real fraternity and sorority parallels from Kyle, James, and Cori. Despite all of this, we're genuinely surprised she's never been fully typecast, given her early TV success and run of questionable film choices. We also debate why she never leaned back into comedy after Talladega Nights (Ricky Bobby deserves answers), and whether her success there was her own comedic timing or just the strength of the script. Along the way, we unpack her unconventional relationship with Sam Rockwell (a former Munson and Case favorite), question the tonal whiplash between her roles in To the Bone and Tag, and even detour into an Aubrey vs. James debate on whether The White Lotus is actually good. Do we have a new lowest scoring actor on the Munson Meter? Listen to find out.

Bowen Sargent is in his 22nd year as head coach of the UVA men's golf team, which has won back-to-back ACC titles and is looking to improve on its runner-up finish at last year's NCAA Championships.

Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have received special undergarments as part of their temple endowment ceremonies since the days of Jospeh Smith. But what are these garments? How do they fit and feel? How have they changed with fashion trends over the years? And how do Latter-day Saints perceive and experience these garments as an embodied practice of their religion?Researchers Nancy Ross and Jessica Finnigan sit down with host Nicholas Shrum to discuss these and many other questions from their brand-new book (co-authored with Larissa Kanno Kindred) Mormon Garments: Sacred and Secret (University of Illinois Press). Having surveyed thousands of Latter-day Saints, Ross and Finnigan discuss their findings on the gendered difference in garment wearing, the ways in which garments make Mormonism feel embodied, the social costs of wearing — or not wearing — garments, the complexities of researching such a taboo topic, and the impact of these garments on the individual Latter-day Saints' relationship to the Church and God.Nancy Ross is an associate professor and the department chair of the Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences Department at Utah Tech University. She was also a 2024 Clyde Research Fellow in Mormonism and Gender in the UVA Mormon Studies Prince Collection.Jessica Finnigan is the founder of Fractional Project Manager and a seasoned researcher and data analyst. She has been researching and writing about Mormonism — particularly the experience of Mormon women — for over a decade.

Send us Fan MailSunscreen advice usually comes as a binary: fear the sun or ignore the risks. We take a different path and give you a practical framework for sun protection that doesn't sacrifice the real health benefits of sunlight. From the start, we separate the roles of UVA and UVB so you can understand what actually causes sunburn, what drives vitamin D production, and why UVA is linked with skin aging while still playing a role in nitric oxide release and circulation. Then we get concrete about “sensible sunlight exposure,” a balanced approach popularised by vitamin D researcher Dr Michael Holick. We talk about how timing, latitude, altitude, season, and skin pigmentation change your safe window for unprotected sun, and why regular gradual exposure can build a “solar callus” that improves tolerance. We also cover a detail many people miss: most household glass blocks UVB but allows UVA through, which matters for anyone spending long hours near windows or on the road. Finally, we tackle sunscreen safety and label reading. We discuss concerns around common sunscreen chemicals like parabens and benzophenone-3 (often called oxybenzone), the reality of transdermal absorption with frequent reapplication, and why combining products can amplify exposure, especially when sunscreen overlaps with insect repellent. We share how we use the Environmental Working Group (EWG) tools like the Skin Deep app, clarify what SPF and “broad spectrum” really mean, and name the mineral sunscreens we trust, with an emphasis on zinc oxide and non-nano options. If this helps you rethink your summer routine, subscribe, share the show with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find smarter, safer guidance on sunlight, sunscreen, and skin health.Environmental Working Group: ewg.orgwww.thehealthedgepodcast.com

Roemenië staat op de rand van een kersverse politieke crisis. Nadat eerder de pro-Europese coalitie uiteen is gevallen, vindt er vandaag een vertrouwensstemming plaats. Op een zeer opvallende en ongebruikelijke manier hebben links en uiterst rechts de handen ineengeslagen om de premier naar huis te sturen. En dat kan grote gevolgen hebben voor de Roemenen, maar ook voor de rest van Europa. Te gast is journalist en Roemeniëkenner Stefan Popa.  (10:53) Oorlogsmisdaden in Libanon  Ondanks het staakt-het-vuren vinden er Israëlische aanvallen plaats in Libanon. Hezbollah slaat op zijn weer terug. Met name in het zuiden van het land wordt de humanitaire situatie nijpend en worden complete dorpen vernietigd. Organisaties als VN en Human Rights Watch slaan alarm en vrezen in het ergste scenario voor oorlogsmisdaden. Daarover correspondent Tara Kenkhuis en Marieke de Hoon, hoofddocent internationaal strafrecht aan de UVA. Presentatie: Laila Frank

The Slanted Attic Experience: Episode 60 "Abby & Caitria" Blueprints, Banter & Bringing Back Your ChildhoodTyler sits down with two Richmond based architects and things get out of hand in the best way possible. Abby and Caitria bring sharp perspectives, genuinely great stories, and the kind of conversational chemistry that makes an episode impossible to stop listening to.They open with construction costs before somehow landing on meat processing, an octopus learning to play the piano, and the critical question of how many third graders you could realistically take in a fight. The Antonio Brown story gets its moment, the Joe Rogan platforming debate sparks real discussion, podcast recommendations are handed out freely, and Flophouse Comedy Club makes a well deserved appearance before public restroom horror stories take over completely.From there it is a full dive into childhood. Middle school memories, Caitria's rowing journey and the Bay Bridge swim, exercise induced anaphylaxis, Walktober at the office, tribalism and Sapiens, the pre versus post internet divide, teachers buying their own classroom supplies, Polly Pockets, Barbies, public speaking fears, and what American culture looks like when you never leave your hometown. The recording ends before the outro gets a chance to happen, which honestly tracks.Guest Panel:Abby: A 27 year old North Carolina native and proud UVA architecture grad who has called Richmond home for five years. When she is not walking her dog through the Fan or tending her vegetable garden, she is deeply invested in historic preservation, sustainable design, and the architectural character that makes Richmond worth caring about.Caitria: An Arlington native and fellow UVA architecture grad who spent two years in New York before landing in Richmond. When she is not designing buildings she is rollerblading, drawing, catching a comedy show, hanging at the river, or playing pickleball. Refreshingly honest and genuinely funny, Caitria brings an energy to the conversation that is hard to manufacture.Topics Covered:Intro The real costs in construction Meat and animal processing and food in general An octopus learning to play the piano How many third graders could you take in a fight? The Story of Antonio Brown The Joe Rogan Experience and the platforming debate Podcast recommendations: Exploration Live, Brooke and Connor, Caleb Hearon's So True Flophouse Comedy Club Public restroom horror stories and public infrastructure The hypothetical of going back to elementary school Middle school stories Caitria's rowing journey and the Bay Bridge swim Exercise induced anaphylaxis Walktober at the office Tribalism and hunter gatherer instincts from Sapiens Pre versus post internet and instant information Teachers purchasing their own supplies Kids being oblivious: the stories Polly Pockets and Barbies Continuing the childhood theme and memorable events Public speaking American culture and living in the same town your entire life No outro this timeNew episodes of The Slanted Attic Experience drop bi-weekly at 10:30 AM EST, with the occasional surprise episode along the way.

Science of Skin Podcast · Sponsored by Neutrogena · Recorded live at the American Academy of Dermatology, Denver Dermatologists Dr. Patti Farris and Dr. Ted Lain go live from the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) in Denver to break down the latest skincare innovations from Neutrogena. In this episode, the hosts dive deep into three cutting-edge products: the Neutrogena Collagen Bank 15% Vitamin C Serum featuring pure L-ascorbic acid, 2% polyhydroxy acid (gluconolactone), and the award-winning microdipeptide (diacetyl dipeptide); the new Hair Restore Scalp Serum, which brings the microdipeptide alongside minoxidil (Rogaine), niacinamide, panthenol, caffeine, feverfew, centella asiatica, and arginine for a comprehensive approach to scalp health and hair loss prevention; and Neutrogena's Ultra Sheer SPF 100 sunscreen with Helioplex technology and antioxidant blends designed to protect against UVB, long-wave UVA, and high-energy visible (HEV) blue light. The doctors explore why L-ascorbic acid is the gold-standard form of vitamin C, how peptides are having a moment in dermatology, the skinification of the scalp, the risks of lipid peroxidation and post-acne hyperpigmentation, and why high SPF formulations matter even beyond UVB protection. Whether you're a dermatologist building patient regimens or a skincare enthusiast looking for science-backed product recommendations, this episode is packed with clinical insight and practical guidance.

How has the new understanding of broken-windows theory helped to reinforce the importance of community ownership? How do built environments also transmit cultural messages? What does good workplace design actually look like? Leidy Klotz is a professor of engineering, architecture, and a behavioral scientist. He's also the author of three books: Subtract: The Untapped Science of Less, Sustainability through Soccer: An Unexpected Approach to Saving Our World, and the latest, In a Good Place: How the Spaces Where We Live, Work, and Play Can Help Us Thrive. Greg and Leidy discuss Leidy's new book on how the spaces where people live, work, and play affect wellbeing, behavior, and thriving, and why research on the mind–environment intersection remains fragmented across psychology, engineering, architecture, and HR. They discuss habituation and inattention (people missing what should be easily noticeable features like a fire extinguisher or UVA's Memorial Gym), subconscious environmental impacts (noise stress, off-gassing), and the human need for agency through personalizing spaces, with examples from offices, nursing homes, refugee housing, and Mandela's prison garden.  *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.* Episode Quotes: Why are humans designed to shape their surroundings 11:53: We talked before about, you know, kind of like these robust ideas from psychology, and one of the most robust is this need for agency, right? The need to have a say in our surroundings. And, you know, if you say, “Where does it come from?” The farthest back. It's like our ancestors roaming around without shelter were more likely to survive if they felt compelled to interact with their surroundings, to make their surroundings more habitable to themselves. Right? And so, if you thought about it, you were pulled psychologically to rear range things or to, you know, move things around to keep the weather away or to keep predators away, you were more likely to survive. And so, that need to interact with our surroundings, right? And now you can get that in a bunch of ways. You can get agency by going to a meeting, but it is still there in that kind of original interaction with our surroundings. Novelty vs. nostalgia 24:26: Novelty is never going to be more than at the beginning. And so, the things that you like about novelty are going to decrease. And then the things that you like about nostalgia are going to increase over time. And so, I think it's just something to really pay close attention to in our surroundings, because it's pretty easy to just go for the novelty. What is the IKEA effect? 13:34: So the IKEA effect is just exactly like it sounds, right, that people build something and that the value that they attribute to the thing is like the material value plus their labor value. So, it's certainly related, and I think the refugee housing is something that they just saw over and over through trial and error. Was that, when people had some say in the things that they built, they felt more ownership over it? So I'd say the IKEA effect is like you're assigning more value to it.

Covering the Commonwealth ft. JMU, UVA, Washington Commanders by Ed Lane

#413 In this podcast episode, Guy talked with Mark Gober about his drive to understand the nature of reality, his view that society is pushed toward fear and division, and his framing of this as "spiritual war." Gober recounted his conventional path (Princeton, investment banking at UBS during the 2008 crisis, then a decade in intellectual property consulting) and how witnessing corruption, followed by a 2016 "dark night of the soul," led him into research on psychedelics, meditation, alternative health, and evidence for consciousness beyond the brain (e.g., near-death experiences, UVA perceptual studies, IONS). He described writing seven books (2018–2024), launching the "Where Is My Mind" podcast, leaving a partner role to pursue this work, and later expanding into politics/economics during COVID, arguing government structure violates spiritual principles and emphasizing discernment, inner work, intention, and his ibogaine intentions. About Mark: Mark Gober is the author of the "Upside Down" series of seven books—spanning the topics of consciousness, politics, economics, UFOs, medicine, cosmology, and more. His first book, "An End to Upside Down Thinking" (2018), won the IPPY award for best science book of the year and was endorsed by researchers with affiliations at Harvard, Princeton, UVA, and UCSF (among others). He then wrote "An End to Upside Down Living" (2020), "An End to Upside Down Liberty" (2021), "An End to Upside Down Contact" (2022), "An End to the Upside Down Reset" (2023), "An End to Upside Down Medicine" (2023); and "An End to the Upside Down Cosmos" (2024). Mark is also the host of the 8-episode podcast series "Where Is My Mind?", released in 2019, which explores the scientific evidence for telepathy, the afterlife, and more. Additionally, since 2019, he has served on the board of the Institute of Noetic Sciences. Previously, Mark was a partner at Sherpa Technology Group in Silicon Valley and worked as an investment banking analyst with UBS in New York. He has been named one of IAM's Strategy 300: The World's Leading Intellectual Property Strategists. Mark graduated magna cum laude from Princeton University, where he wrote an award-winning thesis on Daniel Kahneman's Nobel Prize–winning "Prospect Theory" and was elected a captain of Princeton's Division I tennis team.

This week's Sunday solo starts with something that caught Sarah's attention in the news — the Artemis moon mission and the astronauts who came back changed. Looking at Earth from space, small enough to disappear behind a thumb, they returned with more interest in connection and meaning. Researchers have a name for it: the overview effect. And it got Sarah wondering — what else can crack us open like that without requiring us to leave the atmosphere? That question leads her into a deep dive on near-death experiences: what they are, what the research actually shows, who's done that research (hello, Dr. Bruce Greyson and his 50 years at UVA), and why NDEs have been quietly moving from the fringe into legitimate scientific conversation. She covers what experiencers commonly report — the altered time, the life review, the overwhelming and unconditional love — and the striking aftereffects that tend to follow people home: less fear of death, more compassion, deeper purpose, heightened intuition, and a sense of mission that doesn't fade. And then she makes her case for mediumship, because here's the thing: the love that pours through in a reading? It sounds a lot like what NDEers describe on the other side. NDEs tear the veil open in one dramatic, involuntary moment. Mediumship, and any serious spiritual practice, does the same thing more slowly, more deliberately, and as a practice you can return to. And here's the part that might surprise you: you don't even have to have an NDE to be changed by one. Studying them does it too. Which means this episode already counts.   Key Takeaways The overview effect is real and it's been documented. Astronauts who see Earth from space come back fundamentally changed — less focused on division, more oriented toward connection and meaning. NDEs produce the same shift. You don't have to go to space or to the edge of death to access it, but it helps to know it's possible. Near-death experiences are not hallucinations. Thanks largely to 50 years of research by Dr. Bruce Greyson at the University of Virginia, NDEs are now a legitimate scientific field. The Greyson NDE scale has been translated into 20 languages and used in hundreds of studies. This is not fringe territory anymore. What NDEers come back knowing reads like a blueprint for a spiritually evolved life. Loss of fear of death, heightened compassion, less attachment to status or material gain, deeper intuition, a sense of purpose — these are the aftereffects. And they tend to deepen over time, not fade. You don't have to die to be transformed by an NDE. Researcher Kenneth Ring found that students who simply studied NDEs were changed in the same ways as experiencers. Dr. Penny Sartori found the same thing after 17 years as an ICU nurse. Learning about them does something. This episode counts. Mediumship is doing deliberately what an NDE does accidentally. The overwhelming unconditional love that NDEers describe on the other side is the same energy that moves through a reading. It's the same landscape, accessed differently — slower, more intentional, and available as a daily practice.   Links NYT piece — "What I Saw When I Peeked Over the Edge of Consciousness" https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/07/opinion/near-death-conference-grief-chicago.html HuffPost NDE article (woman who choked on steak) https://www.huffpost.com/entry/choking-near-death-experience-nde-life-review_n_69a3753de4b0213c067615cf Dr. Bruce Greyson's book After on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/After-Doctor-Explores-Near-Death-Experiences/dp/1250263034 IANDS https://iands.org Kenneth Ring's book "Lessons from the Light" (2000)https://www.amazon.com/Lessons-Light-Learn-Near-Death-Experience/dp/1930491115 Near-death.com overview of Ring's research: https://near-death.com/kenneth-ring/ Previous episode with Mary Beth Pemberton (playwright and NDEer) https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/downloading-the-muse-writer-mary-beth-pemberton-on/id1726468626?i=1000730728932 Website: https://www.mediumcurious.com Explore the Intuition & Mediumship Course: https://www.mediumcurious.com Book a reading with Jane Morgan https://www.janemorganmedium.com/ Book a reading with Sarah Rathke https://www.sarahrathke.com/ Jane's Substack: https://janemorgan.substack.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mediumcuriouspod/

This week on 365 Amplified, Rob takes Stephanie and Omar inside the still-under-construction Madison Public Market. After 20 years, $25 million in investment, and a string of missed opening dates, Rob visited the building and found art on the walls but no vendors ready to serve. The team digs into a key question: if the market calls itself "mission driven," why are small vendors — many of them Black and brown entrepreneurs — being required to pay for their own build-outs, and why can't they choose their own contractors? Rob shares what he learned from vendors, a UW urban development expert, city officials, and Public Market CEO Keisha Harrison. Plus, Omar reports on another round of federal funding cuts hitting the Literacy Network's refugee English program, and the team covers the early start to the 2027 Supreme Court race and a shakeup atop UW Athletics. And stick around for a crossover interview from the 608 Soccer Show with Forward Madison striker Stephen Annor Gyamfi, who talks about his secret soccer stardom in Ghana, his path from UVA to the MLS draft, and why he's saving his backflip celebration for the home opener.

And a crazy billing story. ----- It's that time of year where publications look deep into the souls of complex, nuanced legal institutions and assign them a fixed ranking. U.S. News and World Report issued its latest law school rankings and for the first time ever, Yale has lost its death grip on first place. The rest of the T14 -- which isn't really a thing at this point, since its whole argument for being was that the same 14 schools never fell out of the top 14 -- is also topsy-turvy, with the HYS-CCN model scrambled by the likes of Penn, Duke, and UVA. Are the rankings just busted, or are they catching up with a new reality? At the same time, Vault put out its rankings of law firms based on prestige and while the list looks familiar, the firms that made deals with Donald Trump took a hit. And none more than Paul Weiss, which seems to be taking much more reputational heat for these deals than the other capitulators. Finally, we talk about billing and the time-space continuum.
