Podcasts about Validity

Tomasz (Tomek) Kowalski is a triathlon coach with a great track record of athletes racing Kona, among them age-group world champions and podium finishers. With the IRONMAN World Championship coming up again in Kona we cover everything age-group triathletes need to know to have a successful race there, including when to fly out, training and tapering on the island, heat preparation at home, equipment choices, and pacing, fuelling and hydration on race day.HIGHLIGHTS AND KEY TOPICS:The single most common reason a Kona race goes wrong for age-groupers, and roughly how much of the damage it accounts for.When to fly out: the time-zone rule of thumb, the trade-off between arriving early and arriving fresh, and whether you need to fully adapt to Hawaiian time at all.Training on the island: how much lower your watts and paces can be at the same RPE, how long the last long ride and run should be, and whether to keep touching threshold in the final three weeks.Swimming in the last ten days: open water or pool, how to structure an open water session with no buoys to swim between, and how to use the Hoʻala training swim.Heat preparation before you travel: a hot water immersion protocol with durations and water temperature, and why using a CORE temperature sensor or sweat testing gets less weight than you might expect.Kit for the heat: aero or road helmet, visor or no visor, three headwear options for the run, and whether to change from trisuit to running kit in T2.Pacing the swim, bike and run: how many watts to expect to give up compared with a cooler Ironman, and how the impact of the rollers changes depending on how strong a cyclist you are.Fuelling and hydration in the heat: the body mass loss on the bike that puts your run at risk, and how easily caffeine intake creeps too high.SHOWNOTES, LINKS, RESOURCES AND RELATED EPISODES:That Triathlon Show Community on ROUVYThat Triatlon Show Group Ride on ROUVY - 5 October, 18:00 CET (12pm ET, 9am PT), 25 km / 15.5 miles on the Kona bike course.

Arshavir Blackwell was working in AI before anyone called it AI, back when it went by neural networks and machine learning. In this unscripted fireside chat, he pulls back the curtain on where AI came from, why generic tools make everyone sound the same, and what history tells us about technology and jobs. He also names the trap he calls Fluency is Validity: the habit of trusting an answer because it sounds smart. If AI has felt like a magic box or a threat, this conversation will leave you clearer and a lot less afraid.Connect with Arshavir:Inside the Black Box, his weekly Substack newsletter: insidetheblackbox.aiYourVoiceCraft, the local AI model that learns your voice: yourvoicecraft.aiFree resource: The Serve to Scale 5 Point Method, my full coaching program, is now free.

¡Mándame un mensaje!¿Tu InBody dice que perdiste músculo aunque llevas semanas entrenando? ¿O que ganaste grasa cuando tu peso ni siquiera cambió? Antes de cambiar tu alimentación o pensar que no estás progresando, hay algo que necesitas entender: no todos los números de tu reporte son mediciones directas.En este episodio de El Chisme del Fitness empezamos con un estudio bastante curioso: después de que veinte mujeres recibieran implantes de silicón, una máquina de bioimpedancia reportó, en promedio, unos 600 gramos más de grasa corporal. ¿Qué nos dice eso sobre los números que aparecen cuando tú te mides?Te explico, sin complicarnos la vida, qué mide realmente el InBody, qué calcula y cómo interpretar algunas de las mediciones que probablemente has visto en tus resultados:Porcentaje y kilos de grasa corporal.Masa libre de grasa vs. músculo esquelético.Agua corporal y su relación con los cambios de peso.Análisis muscular por segmentos.Grasa visceral.Metabolismo basal o en reposo.También hablamos de qué tan confiables son estas máquinas, por qué dos equipos pueden darte resultados distintos y cómo medirte para comparar tu progreso con más sentido.Al final te comparto cuatro pasos para leer tu reporte y un ejercicio sencillo para conocer cuánto fluctúan tus números incluso cuando no has hecho cambios importantes.La idea no es que dejes de medirte. Es que aprendas a usar tus resultados sin dar por hecho que cada cambio en la pantalla es un cambio real en tu cuerpo.Cuéntame: ¿alguna vez tu InBody te hizo pensar que habías perdido músculo o ganado grasa cuando sentías que ibas por buen camino?— Andie Illanes El Chisme del FitnessEstudios mencionados en este episodio:• Implantes de silicón y estimación de grasa corporal mediante bioimpedancia (2012): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=Interference+of+silicone+breast+implants+on+bioimpedance+measurement+of+body+fat• Validez de la bioimpedancia frente al modelo de cuatro compartimentos: revisión sistemática (2026): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=The+Validity+of+Bioelectrical+Impedance+Analysis+Compared+to+a+Four-Compartment+Model+in+Healthy+Adults• Fiabilidad y capacidad de 15 equipos de bioimpedancia para detectar cambios en la composición corporal: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=Assessing+the+reliability+and+cross-sectional+and+longitudinal+validity+of+fifteen+bioelectrical+impedance+analysis+devicesSupport the showInstagram: andieillanesPágina web: andieillanes.com

In this roundtable episode of The Behavioral View, hosts Dr. Nissa Intarachote Van Etten and Elizabeth Barajas are joined by a panel of clinical and product leaders from CentralReach —Autumn Bailey, Ben Knaebel, Katie Huba, and Allison Frazier — to discuss the evolution of assessment practice in ABA and school psychology. The panel describes the four-phase item review of the ABLLS-R and AFLS (evaluating inclusivity, clarity, relevance, and item ordering via item response theory), the development of the AI Measures/Outcome Measures platform (CR Assessment 2.0) that integrates standardized, norm-referenced measures with skill-based assessment, and a data-derived treatment dosage and strategy algorithm. Discussion also addresses how practitioners can appropriately assess and address co-occurring symptoms such as anxiety and ADHD within their scope of practice, and the importance of cross-disciplinary collaboration among BCBAs, school psychologists, and other providers in supporting whole-child, outcome-driven care.

Could slowing AI development make superintelligence safer? Daniel Kokotajlo and Thomas Larsen of the AI Futures Project join Tim Scarfe to examine AI 2040: Plan A, a proposal to buy time before AI exceeds human control.SPONSOR:---Cyber Fund built the Monastery to help founders ship products that were impossible a year ago.Apply now: https://cyber.fund---After revisiting AI 2027 and the limits of forecasting, they ask what happens when AI can automate research and sustain an economy without human workers. Tim challenges the case for general models and asks whether intelligence alone explains power. Plan A proposes an initial pause to build safety infrastructure, then cautious development up to the strongest AI that can still be reliably controlled. The discussion tests the distinction between control and alignment, the case for public AI research, and whether the US and China could enforce a slowdown.

What if everything you were taught about how a virus is discovered and proven is flawed? Today I'm joined by Dr. Thomas Cowan, a family physician of 37 years who spent his career practicing conventional medicine before turning his attention to the foundational evidence behind virology, immunology, and disease itself.  Dr. Tom walks us through how viruses like polio, measles, HIV, and SARS-CoV-2 have historically been "isolated" in lab settings and why he questions the reliability of PCR and antibody testing. He believes symptoms like fevers, rashes, and tumors are the body's own healing response rather than disease caused by an outside pathogen.  We also get into his views on autoimmune disease, cholesterol, and blood pressure. If you're the kind of person who likes to question what you've been told and prefers to look at the primary research findings, this conversation will give you plenty to explore.    "The things we call symptoms are not diseases. They are the body's attempt to heal." ~ Dr. Thomas Cowan   In This Episode: - Why Dr. Tom questions the existence of viruses - How measles and SARS-CoV-2 were "isolated"  - Measles diagnostic criteria and vaccine history  - Views on COVID, HIV, gain-of-function, and antibody theory  - What really causes "viral" diseases? - Validity of the PCR test methodology  - Autoimmune disease reframed as poisoning or diet  - Views on vaccine ingredients and dosing schedules  - Cholesterol, blood pressure, and blocked arteries  - Dr. Tom's views on genetic codons   Products & Resources Mentioned: Bon Charge Red Light Face Mask: Get 15% off sitewide, plus free shipping and a 12-month warranty, with code WENDY at https://boncharge.com/  Heavy Metals Quiz: Take the quiz at https://heavymetalsquiz.com    About Dr. Thomas Cowan:  Dr. Thomas Cowan is an alternative medicine doctor, author, and speaker known for a holistic, common-sense approach to health. He's written eight books, including Breaking the Spell, The Contagion Myth, and Cancer and the New Biology of Water. He practiced general medicine for 34 years across San Francisco, New Hampshire, and upstate New York before retiring. He was a founding board member and vice president of the Weston A.

This week on This Week in Heart Rate Variability, we open a new themed month by looking at where heart rate variability is headed next. Six studies map the future of the field — from a unifying theory of cardiovascular instability built on Shannon entropy, to the regulatory and technical realities of validating consumer wearables, to a meta-analysis quantifying how far photoplethysmography still is from true electrocardiography-derived HRV, to a virtual reality study, a forest-based multimodal field study, and a deep dive into the asymmetric structure of the heartbeat itself. RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS THIS WEEK 1. Shannon Entropy in Heart Rate Variability: A Unified Indicator of Electrical and Hemodynamic Cardiovascular Instability PUBLICATION: Medical Research Archives AUTHORS: Orazio Antonio Barra KEY FINDING: This systematic review pooled 22 published studies that applied Shannon entropy of RR intervals to atrial fibrillation and tilt-induced syncope. Entropy declined progressively across both conditions — roughly ten percent at baseline instability, fifteen to twenty percent approaching pre-crisis, and twenty-five to thirty percent as crisis became imminent — with entropy showing better specificity than other HRV indices while holding onto its sensitivity. SIGNIFICANCE: Entropy looks less like a metric tied to one specific condition and more like a general-purpose marker of autonomic complexity loss that shows up consistently whether the underlying instability is electrical or hemodynamic. This is a synthesis of existing studies rather than a new trial, so it should be read as a strong, well-supported hypothesis rather than a validated bedside tool. Read the full study: https://esmed.org/MRA/mra/article/view/7606 2. Validity, Reliability, and Regulatory Considerations for Consumer Devices in Clinical Research Data Collection PUBLICATION: Applied Clinical Trials Online AUTHORS: Lauren Crooks, Greta Marie van Schoor, Anthony Everhart, Bill Byrom, and Thijs Sondag KEY FINDING: This article maps the validity, reliability, and regulatory landscape for consumer wearables used in decentralized clinical trials. Heart rate accuracy can approach ECG-level concordance under favorable conditions, but motion artifacts, device-to-device variation, and demographic performance gaps can cause aggregate agreement statistics to mask large individual-level errors. Only an estimated 11% of devices on the market have been rigorously and publicly validated. SIGNIFICANCE: Regulators are converging on "fit-for-purpose" validation rather than universal accuracy claims — asking whether a specific device is accurate enough for a specific clinical question, not whether it's accurate for everything. That's a useful discipline for anyone using consumer devices outside a formal trial, too.

Listener Q&A, covering nine different questions/topics from building bike power as a runner and a collegiate swimmer moving back into triathlon, through what actually makes us fatigue during a threshold effort, to swimskins, power duration curves and lots more. We do listener Q&As monthly, the last Thursday every month. HIGHLIGHTS AND KEY TOPICS: Building the bike as a runner: why heart rate sits lower on the bike than on the run, whether that gap matters, and what it says about where the limiter is. Plus how to use a daily 20 km ride towing a 25 kg dog trailer. A 193 cm, 100 kg collegiate swimmer moving back into triathlon: the engine-stronger-than-the-chassis problem, a run progression specified down to the minute, and why Mikael gets more conservative every time he coaches this profile. Why the maximal lactate steady state is a steady state for lactate and not for the whole body, what keeps drifting while lactate holds flat, and what one study found when it looked for the system that fails at exhaustion. How long you can actually hold MLSS, against the 40 minutes the question assumed, how much that varies between athletes, and where critical power sits relative to it. Swimskins: whether they give you any of the buoyancy a wetsuit does, the performance, drag and energy cost numbers from the closest pool research, and the thing that matters more than the brand and price tag. Whether a swimskin does more for a fast swimmer or a slow one. Reading your own power duration curve with nobody to compare against: the TrainingPeaks chart to start from, why a flat profile means something different for a triathlete than a cyclist, and Strava as a stand-in database. Mikael's W' bands for male and female age group triathletes, on record for the first time, plus the critical power ratio from close to a hundred of his own athletes' tests. Quickfire round on altitude, heat and the CORE sensor, run volume by intensity, and vegan nutrition.

Gene Marks shares insights from White House advisor Kevin Hassett regarding the validity of government economic data, with Hassett favoring durable goods orders and unemployment claims over revised surveys. Marks reports a generally positive outlook for small businesses, citing an uptick in optimism and a four-year high in manufacturing activity driven by the AI and data center explosion. He notes that while tariffs and $4 gasoline remain concerns, many businesses are absorbing costs without significant impact on sales. Marks characterizes the United States as an "entrepreneur's paradise" because of the ease of starting a business and the high availability of capital. He highlights that nearly half a million new business applications are filed monthly, supported by record levels of private debt and venture capital. Marks concludes that despite various uncertainties, the small business sector remains resilient and is continuing to hire. (2)

This week we skipped the headlines and the documentaries and went straight into the forum archives, comment sections, and the places where only the most reliable of witnesses openly talk about the strangest night of their lives. These are (ALLEGEDLY!) firsthand alien encounters and abduction stories, told in the witnesses' own words.Grey aliens standing at the edge of your bed, ufo sightings witnessed by multiple people at the same time, saucers that stop a whole homeless shelter in its tracks over an Arizona highway on a not so average Tuesday night, and even a camper in the Sierras who woke up next to a dead fire after being plopped inside a craft and told the origins of humanity (finally, concrete evidence, amiright?) We can't verify any of these, but that's kind of the whole point.We got no news crews, and no proof, just people who were dead sure of what they saw and had nowhere else to say it. If you're a sucker for alien encounters, abduction stories, and obscure UFO accounts pulled from the deep corners of the internet, you're in for a treat.Seen an alien face to face?

Archaeological digs and discoveries have proven that the stories contained within the Bible are true, explains Dinesh D’Souza, a filmmaker and former policy advisor to Ronald Reagan, on Behind the Deep State with The New American’s Alex Newman. In fact, the evidence is so overwhelming that “there is not a single archaeological discovery that contradicts ...

Kalorien, Makros und Aktivitätsdaten versprechen Kontrolle – doch wie verlässlich sind Tracking-Apps, Portionsangaben und die Kalorien der Smartwatch wirklich? Wir erklären, für wen Ernährungstracking sinnvoll sein kann, welche typischen Fehler die Ergebnisse verfälschen, wann der Zahlenfokus problematisch wird und wie man das Tracking später wieder ausschleicht. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dominiks Buch zur pflanzenbasierten Sporternährung im UTB-Verlag: https://www.utb.de/doi/book/10.36198/9783838560328 Dominiks Gesundheitscommunity: www.gsundes-hannover.de Dominiks Online-Knie-Kurs: https://gsundes-hannover.de/knieschmerzen/ Dominiks Online-Rücken-Kurs: https://copecart.com/products/34bd5abb/checkout Marcs veganes Online-Fitness-Coaching: https://vegainer-academy.com/ Marcs Online-Kurs: https://www.copecart.com/products/a50f88f2/checkout ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Werbung: Dieser Podcast wird unterstützt von der Firma Watson Nutrition.

Sie beschreiben statistisch modellierte Bereiche, die in den untersuchten Populationen nur von einem kleinen Anteil erreicht wurden. Aus den Daten lässt sich daher nicht ableiten, dass ein bestimmter Mensch einen höheren Wert unabhängig von Training, Ernährung und Zeit grundsätzlich niemals erreichen kann. 00:55:20–00:55:43 und 00:57:09–00:57:28 Einordnung: Ein tatsächlich bestehendes und über längere Zeit anhaltendes Energiedefizit führt zum Abbau gespeicherter Körperenergie. Aus den von einer Tracking-App angezeigten Zahlen lässt sich jedoch nicht sicher schließen, dass dieses Defizit auch wirklich besteht. Fehler bei Portionsgrößen, Lebensmitteldaten und der Schätzung des Energieverbrauchs sind möglich. Kurzfristig kann der Gewichtsverlauf außerdem durch Wasserhaushalt, Verdauungsinhalt, Zyklus, Medikamente oder Erkrankungen überlagert werden. 00:59:09–00:59:51 Einordnung: Dass eine niedrigere Energiezufuhr nach einiger Zeit leichter fällt, belegt nicht automatisch die Entwicklung eines neuen biologischen „Setpoints“. Ebenso denkbar sind Anpassungen der Gewohnheiten, der Mahlzeitenzusammensetzung, der Appetitwahrnehmung und des Umgangs mit Hunger. Die Regulation des Körpergewichts ist komplex und lässt sich nicht auf einen einzelnen festen Sollwert reduzieren. 01:11:55–01:12:30 Einordnung: Mikronährstoffwerte aus Tracking-Apps sind nicht grundsätzlich wertlos, häufig aber deutlich unvollständiger und unsicherer als Angaben zu Energie und Makronährstoffen. Fehlende Datenbankwerte bedeuten nicht, dass ein Lebensmittel den betreffenden Nährstoff nicht enthält. Die Angaben können Hinweise auf mögliche Ernährungsmuster geben, eignen sich aber weder zur sicheren Beurteilung des Versorgungsstatus noch zur Diagnose eines Mangels. 01:26:25–01:26:53 Einordnung: Das Beispiel einer möglichen Nutzung von Apple-Health-Daten für personalisierte Werbung war hypothetisch. Apple erklärt, Gesundheitsdaten aus der Health-App nicht für seine Werbeplattform zu verwenden. Bei anderen Apps und verbundenen Drittanbietern können die Regelungen abweichen. Entscheidend sind daher die jeweils geltende Datenschutzerklärung, erteilte Einwilligungen und die tatsächlich verbundenen Dienste. 01:28:28–01:28:39 Einordnung: Die Nutzung einer datenschutzkonformen Coaching-Software entbindet Coaches oder andere Behandelnde nicht automatisch von ihrer eigenen datenschutzrechtlichen Verantwortung. Je nach Ausgestaltung bleiben sie für die Verarbeitung verantwortlich und müssen unter anderem Zweck, Rechtsgrundlage, Zugriffsrechte, Auftragsverarbeitung und sichere Speicherung prüfen. Die Wahl einer geeigneten Software ist dabei nur ein Bestandteil der erforderlichen Maßnahmen. Quellenverzeichnis Alhammad, N., Alajlani, M., Abd-alrazaq, A., Epiphaniou, G., & Arvanitis, T. (2024).

Cabinet has approved the extension of driving licence card validity from five to ten years for certain vehicle categories. Government says the move is aimed at reducing backlogs at testing centres, cutting administrative burdens and aligning the country with international norms. However, the decision has sparked debate around road safety, enforcement and whether the system is equipped to handle such a transition. Importantly, the changes are not yet in effect, as legislative amendments still need to be finalised and gazetted. We spoke to Louis Boshoff, campaigns officer at AfriForum.

Sean Hazlett joins us today to talk about the validity of remote viewing. We'll review methods of remote viewing, dangers of remote viewing, and other interesting topics. Welcome to Camp!

Why can you care deeply about a task, fully understand what needs to be done, and still feel physically unable to begin? In this episode of Authentically ADHD, Carmen explores the AuDHD freeze response—the frustrating gap between intention and action shaped by task-initiation struggles, autistic inertia, cognitive disengagement, transition friction, overwhelm, and nervous-system protection.We break down why this is not laziness, defiance, or a lack of discipline, and why shame often makes the freeze even worse. You'll learn how to identify what kind of “stuck” you are experiencing, reduce invisible steps, create gentler transition ramps, use body doubling and external cues, and choose a first step small enough to actually access.Because sometimes your brain is not refusing to cross the bridge. The bridge simply has no ramp, no lighting, no signs, and one deeply unqualified raccoon in a hard hat yelling, “Figure it out.”This episode is for every AuDHDer who has ever spent an hour thinking about standing up—and then blamed themselves for still sitting.Research and Show-Notes References* Buckle, K.

Following a report by Reuters this week that NONE of the Nancy Guthrie ransom notes are legitimate, the FBI has released a statement attempting to clarify what they believe is real and what isn’t. While the feds admit that some of the notes were, in fact, extortion attempts, they insist that some of the other ransom notes “may potentially be legitimate and are still to be investigated as such.” This is just another confusing twist in the mystery that deepens with every confusing headline.

Episode OverviewHosts Mike and Glenn return to the coffee shop to discuss the concept of "living weed-free" and the shifting landscape of modern sobriety. They voice concern that while the younger generation is moving away from alcohol, many are replacing it with marijuana, leaving a whole new demographic hurting and in need of support. [1, 2]The Validity and Mechanics of AAStrength in Numbers: The hosts emphasize that finding strength requires community, which is achieved through consistent attendance at meetings. [1]Proof It Works: Countering critics who claim Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) is ineffective, the hosts argue they see living proof of its success every single day through the lives of countless meeting attendees. [1]The Turning Point: AA works for those who approach it correctly. The program truly begins to function at the exact point of complete surrender.Expectation Management: Setting proper expectations is the ultimate secret to finding success within the program.Redefining True SobrietyThe "Weed-Free" Rule: The hosts firmly agree that using marijuana contradicts the true definition of sobriety. You are not practicing authentic AA if you still use weed.Mind-Altering Substances: Sobriety requires saying no to all mind-altering drugs, with strict exceptions only for legitimate pain management.The Reward of Clarity: Mental clarity is the ultimate benefit of a sober life. Where they once begged for pain medications, they now restrict them exclusively to necessary, true pain relief.Societal Value: Prioritizing personal sobriety and spirituality creates a default benefit for everyone around the addict, improving society as a whole.Mission Over NumbersFocus on the Individual: Unlike ego-driven podcasts or "mega-churches" that obsess over metrics, Mike and Glenn focus strictly on their mission. [1]The "One Person" Rule: The show's purpose is not high download numbers; it is about helping the single, individual person who might find healing through their conversation.Actionable Advice & WarningsTry Abstinence: If you find yourself "dangling in the weeds" or struggling with dependency, the hosts recommend attempting complete abstinence.New Drug Hazards: Beware of the emergence of dangerous, heavily marketed "sexy" new drugs.Medical Transparency: When seeking medical pain relief, always consult a healthcare professional. Crucially, always tell your doctor that you are an addict so they can treat you safely. [1]Closing Thought: Mike and Glenn choose to protect their peace by living in a strict weed-free zone and challenge listeners to consider doing the same.

In this episode of PICU Doc on Call, hosts Dr. Monica Gray and Dr. Pradip Kamat explore procedural sedation in the pediatric ICU. They cover sedation levels, pre-screening, risk stratification using ASA classifications, and medication selection tailored to each patient's hemodynamic and respiratory status. Through real-world case discussions involving respiratory failure, septic shock, and acute neurological decline, they highlight the importance of end-tidal CO2 monitoring and early adverse event recognition. Key takeaways include avoiding the term "conscious sedation," preparing rescue plans, and prioritizing patient safety through careful assessment and monitoring.Show Highlights:Definitions and levels of sedation (minimal, moderate, deep sedation, and general anesthesia)Importance of terminology in procedural sedationMonitoring sedation levels using scales like the Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS)Pre-screening and risk stratification considerations for pediatric patientsASA physical status classification system for assessing patient riskUnique challenges of procedural sedation in critically ill childrenAdverse events associated with pediatric procedural sedation, particularly respiratory complicationsManagement strategies for specific cases requiring sedation (e.g., respiratory failure, septic shock)Importance of end-tidal CO2 monitoring during sedationKey takeaways for safe sedation practices in the pediatric ICU settingReferences: Nir Atlas; Rahul C.

In this episode of Crime and the Courtroom, John Collins discusses the central themes of his new book, Valid Comparisons: The Forensic and Judicial Examination of Stochastic Patterns, and examines the ongoing challenges facing forensic science in the courtroom. He addresses the growing tension between scientific reality and legal expectations, emphasizing that while forensic disciplines cannot offer absolute certainty, they remain grounded in decades of practical validation and real-world application. He reflects on how past mistakes—particularly in areas like bite mark evidence—have influenced public perception, and argues that the forensic community must take responsibility for communicating both its strengths and its limitations more clearly.  Throughout the episode, Collins makes the case for a more disciplined and transparent approach to forensic testimony—one that acknowledges uncertainty without surrendering confidence in well-established methods. This discussion offers an important perspective for forensic practitioners, attorneys, and anyone interested in how scientific evidence is evaluated in the pursuit of justice.

“What would it take for Catholics and Orthodox to reunite?” This question opens a discussion on the complexities of Christian unity, while also addressing varied topics such as the validity of a non-Catholic marriage without civil ceremony, the necessity of confession after salvation, and the differences in gospel accounts of the women at the tomb. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 01:35 – What would it take for the Catholics and Orthodox to reunite? 14:48 – Is my mom's marriage valid? She and he are non-Catholic but baptized. She didn't get civilly married, but it was a public ceremony with witnesses. Both were married before, but those previous spouses have died. 18:30 – I was told that once you are saved there is no need for confession. How does a Catholic respond to that? 29:29 – I heard a Protestant say we have the same spirit that raised Lazarus from the dead. Is that true? 35:00 – Why do the four gospels list different women at the tomb? 40:16 – My wife and I are converts. We were non-Catholics when we married. It was a non-Church ceremony at an embassy. There were not vows. But it was a legal marriage. Are we married in the Church? Do we need to have it convalidated? 47:27 – Does the Church infallibly teach that Mary had no actual sin? 51:05 – Could you comment on how the prodigal son narrative relates to the act of confession? Is this parable an example of confession?

Do you believe the Vatican would do ANYTHING under the current leadership to cast doubt on the validity of Francis' papacy?

Episode 1189 – Shaun Yurtkuran Debunks the Brady-Giglio List Clay is joined by longtime friend and former co-host Shaun Yurtkuran — former Hinds County Assistant District Attorney and one of Mississippi's top criminal defense attorneys. Shaun breaks down the so-called “Brady-Giglio List” that some activists have been pushing, explaining what the actual Supreme Court cases (Brady v. Maryland and Giglio) really mean, when material must be turned over, and why the way it's being weaponized locally is largely a myth and a grift. He draws from his years of experience on both sides of the bench to explain why random complaints or “I don't like this cop” claims don't automatically land officers on any legitimate list, and why the entire narrative being sold online doesn't hold up in real courtroom practice. A clear, no-nonsense legal takedown of one of the most overhyped topics in local activist circles

Tune in for our conversation with Dr. Stephen Cabral where he breaks down why even health-conscious biohackers can struggle with chronic symptoms, pointing to hidden imbalances that standard approaches often miss. He emphasizes starting with gut and immune health and explains why comprehensive lab testing, especially Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA), offers insights that blood work alone can't capture. The conversation explores how stress, electrolyte imbalances, and heavy metal exposure quietly drain resilience, making proper detoxification and mineral balance essential. Dr. Cabral also shares practical guidance on magnesium, zinc, copper, iron, and adrenal support, tailoring advice for high performers under constant pressure. We also dive into our personal HTMA results so you can get a front row seat on what a typical HTMA consultation looks like. Throughout the episode, he underscores that optimal health isn't just about supplements and protocols, but also mindset—building “stress calluses” and taking a truly holistic, systems-based approach.Dr. Stephen Cabral is a Board-Certified Doctor of Naturopathy and founder of EquiLife, the global integrative health organization providing at-home lab testing, personalized wellness protocols, and concierge health coaching to over 300,000 clients over the past 25 years.He also founded the Integrative Health Practitioner Institute (IHPI), which has certified over 5,000 practitioners globally, and hosts The Cabral Concept podcast with 3,500+ episodes and 100 million+ downloads.After overcoming a life-threatening illness at 17, Dr. Cabral went on to get his doctoral degree and completed over 2,200 internship hours all over the world including India, Sri Lanka, China, Europe, and the U.S.SHOW NOTES:0:42 Welcome to the podcast!3:13 About Dr. Stephen Cabral4:12 Welcome him to the show!4:48 Why do healthy people get sick?7:48 Addressing gut & immune system first10:36 Starting with HTMA Testing12:21 Electrolytes in hair vs blood work15:12 Validity of HTMA16:05 Overview of our results interpretation18:09 Lauren's HTMA results22:38 Supporting the HPA axis with electrolytes24:33 Magnesium recommendations25:29 Iron, Copper & Zinc31:51 Advice for high performers & high achievers33:44 *CALOCURB*34:56 Lauren's heavy metals41:17 Renee's HTMA results44:32 Creating stress “calluses”50:21 Renee's heavy metals52:50 Finding a Biological Dentist54:47 Where else metals are stored56:42 Adrenal support ingredients57:25 Zinc & Copper balancing1:03:45 Minerals & Metals Test1:05:32 His final piece of advice1:06:50 Thanks for tuning in!RESOURCES:Calocurb - discount code: RENEE10Website: www.drstephencabral.comIG: @stephencabralYouTube50% off the Minerals & Metals TestBook: PersonomicsCoaching: sign up for the Personomics waitlist at:Personomics.ioThe Julian Center for Comprehensive DentistryTo find a Biological Dentist: iaomt.orgSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/biohacker-babes-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
