¿Y si el arte no fuera solo una pasión, sino la herramienta financiera más poderosa que existe? En este episodio de Dimes y Billetes hablamos con Filippo Giusti, artista italiano radicado en San Miguel de Allende, sobre por qué decidió romper el mito del "artista bohemio pobre" para convertir su obra en un negocio serio. También cuenta su historia personal: de crecer con dislexia y sentirse "el seis más triste de la historia" en la escuela, pasar por una carrera fallida como actor en Roma, mudarse a México por amor y llegar a la Ciudad de México justo antes del terremoto de 2017, hasta descubrir su vocación como pintor.Prueba café el Capitalhttps://cafeelcapital.com/s/08a4840:00 – "El arte es un bien de lujo, es un negocio" 1:43 – El origen histórico del negocio del arte: Van Gogh, el MoMA y el mito del "artista bohemio pobre"4:10 – Por qué el mito del "pintor pobre" es un sistema de creencias limitante 4:59 – El Renacimiento: Miguel Ángel y los mecenas que financiaban el arte 6:16 – Su visión: el arte como bien de lujo y estilo de vida sofisticado 6:43 – Por qué rompió el patrón del artista pobre para ser financieramente exitoso 8:12 – "Véndeles lo que quieren, dales lo que necesitan": su filosofía de negocio 9:03 – Los dos tipos de coleccionistas: los que buscan belleza y los que buscan inversión 11:02 – Su colaboración con el banco Kimber 12:23 – Cómo transformó los desayunos de "perspectivas económicas" en exposiciones de arte 16:40 – Su estrategia con museos: exponer en espacios de prestigio sube el valor de su obra 10–15% 18:44 – La triada ganadora: el artista, el capital y la institución artística 20:13 – Por qué apalancarse del mercado no "mancha" al artista 21:06 – Los dos extremos del arte: el 100% comercial vs. el purista 23:07 – Su niñez: bueno en arte, "malo" en matemáticas según la escuela 25:15 – La fórmula que escribió: Máximo Potencial = Pasión + Propósito 26:46 – Cómo encontró su propósito: promover la empatía a través de sus retratos 29:36 – El Renacimiento revisado: cómo la Iglesia y los Medici usaban el arte como branding 31:34 – "El arte es una imprenta de dinero": el valor subjetivo del arte 33:16 – El uso controversial del arte para deducir impuestos 34:44 – Por qué el arte abstracto no tiene reglas objetivas de valor 36:58 – La analogía de la firma de Michael Jordan: el valor de la historia detrás del objeto 39:39 – Por qué decidió no depender de galerías y ser dueño de su propia marca 41:36 – San Miguel de Allende: su lista de espera de dos años 46:50 – Su historia: nace en Livorno, Italia, y el choque con las expectativas de sus padres 47:56 – Su etapa como actor en Italia y por qué tocó fondo 52:21 – Cómo conoció a Paulina, su prometida, y la decisión de mudarse a México 53:25 – Llegar a México justo antes del terremoto de 2017 55:51 – El negocio de pieles que fracasó (y por qué fue una bendición) 56:35 – Descubrir Fábrica La Aurora: la comunidad de artistas que le cambió la vida 59:47 – Su rutina: pintar hasta 10 horas al día 1:00:33 – Su dislexia y el aprendizaje autodidacta en YouTube 1:09:45 – Su mentor Yago Partal, el escultor hiperrealista italiano 1:12:54 – La filosofía de Yago: "el verdadero éxito es no vender todo" 1:14:19 – Su estrategia de mantener su obra como inventario que se aprecia con el tiempo 1:18:31 – El caso de la familia Rothko: cuando el coleccionista gana más que el artista 1:19:32 – El coleccionista que le enseñó a compartir la plusvalía con el artista 1:21:41 – Su próxima serie "Mentores": retratos de quienes lo inspiraron 1:24:12 – Cómo contactarlo y su próxima exposición en Nueva York

Jo Piazza is the bestselling author of Everyone Is Lying to You, The Sicilian Inheritance, and her newest novel, The Parisian Heist, and the host of the Under the Influence podcast. Kate and Jo open by tracing the origins of trad wife culture on social media, discussing Nara Smith's recent rejection of the tradwife label on Call Her Daddy, and whether a new wave of trad wife horror novels signals a real cultural shift or simply a more extreme splintering of the trend. The conversation then turns to The Parisian Heist, a dual timeline mystery following an American art student in 1990s Paris entangled with a powerful art dealing family, alongside the real history of Jo van Gogh Bonger, the sister in law who single handedly built Vincent van Gogh's legacy after his death, with Jo discussing her research trips to Paris and Auvers sur Oise and how the 2025 Louvre jewel heist informed the novel's climax.

La Tertulia - 07.08.2026 - Van Gogh inmersivo: entre el acceso al arte y el entretenimiento by En Perspectiva
El exsubsecretario del Interior Felipe Harboe (ex-PPD) advirtió que el despliegue policial focalizado en los 50 barrios más críticos del país no es lo más apropiado para conseguir un repliegue del crimen organizado.Después de que el Gobierno de Kast se comprometiera a mantener estos copamientos en el marco de su Agenda contra el Crimen Organizado y el Terrorismo (ACOT), Harboe apuntó que "la medida popular de hacer operativos viene hace muchos años".Consultado por la eventual creación de otro estado de excepción constitucional por grave alteración de la seguridad pública, la exautoridad reconoció: "No soy partidario de la participación de militares en labores de seguridad y orden público, en primer lugar, porque la formación militar no contempla habilidades, capacidades ni oficio en estas materias, que son extremadamente complejas".También conversamos con el periodista Claudio Vergara, quien nos cuenta sobre el regreso a Chile del grupo español La Oreja de Van Gogh, con la vocalista original Amaia Montero de vuelta en la formación, y con cuatro conciertos agotados y un quinto a la venta para 2027; y de Foo Fighters que llega en su nuevo tour mundial con el baterista Ilan Rubin.El Diario de Cooperativa, con Verónica Franco y Rodrigo Vergara.Descubre más contenidos como este en Cooperativapodcast.cl
In a Q&A after one of my talks, someone asked what I'm chasing in life. My answer was immortality, and I mean that in the most practical, actionable way possible. I use the story of Van Gogh, a man who sold only one painting during his entire lifetime, to show what it looks like when someone creates from passion rather than profit. The lesson isn't that money doesn't matter. It's that when money is the only thing driving you, the dark days will break you. This episode is about finding what brings you life, protecting it, and using it as the foundation for a legacy that outlasts you. Key Takeaways Immortality is not about living forever. It is about creating ideas, work, and impact that outlive you. Van Gogh sold only one painting in his lifetime, yet his passion produced 2100 works and a legacy worth hundreds of millions. Output driven by passion compounds over time. Every time I chased money over alignment, I got burned the hardest. Chasing a check without purpose creates stress, not success. You cannot drown in your passion the same way you can drown chasing money. Passion is a lifeline on your darkest days. Legacy is built by asking one question daily: if I do this today, will I and the people I serve be better tomorrow? Action Steps Identify one thing in your life right now that genuinely brings you joy and energy, whether tied to your career or not, and commit to protecting time for it daily. Audit your current pursuits and ask honestly which ones you are in purely for the money versus which ones align with what you actually care about building. Stop measuring your work by what the world labels it today. Focus entirely on what you are creating and whether it will matter tomorrow. Notable Quote You can absolutely drown chasing money, but you can't and won't drown in your passion.

Dr Albin: All right, welcome all. For the first time ever in the history of Continuum Audio, we are coming to you live from Chicago here at the AAN annual meeting. And now over to your host, the one and only editor-in-chief, Dr. Lyell Jones. Dr Jones: Welcome, everybody. My name is Lyell Jones, editor-in-chief of Continuum, and I'm here today with Dr. Karin Johnson, and we're interviewing Dr. Johnson for the upcoming and recently published issue of Continuum on Sleep Neurology. We have been doing Continuum Audio for a while, but we're doing something different this time. As our listeners online can tell, we are recording this for the first time ever with a live studio audience at the American Academy of Neurology annual meeting in Chicago, Illinois. So, this is a fun experience for us. I hope it's been fun so far for you, Dr. Johnson. Dr Johnson: Great to be here. Dr Jones: It's great to have you. So, before we get into the interview, I do wanna introduce our team here for the live recording of the podcast. You've already heard Dr. Casey Albin's voice. Dr. Casey Albin is an associate professor of neurology at Emory University. Also serves as one of our associate editors at the journal and one of our Continuum Audio interviewers. So, she's going to be working the crowd today. Let's have a round of applause for Dr. Albin. And our guest of honor today is Dr. Karin Johnson. Dr. Johnson is a professor of neurology at UMass Chan Medical School and, Baystate Medical Center in Massachusetts. She is a world-renowned expert in sleep neurology and is the guest editor for the most recent issue of Continuum on Sleep Neurology. Dr. Johnson, welcome. Why don't you introduce yourself to our audience? Dr Johnson: You did a great introduction, but I'm a clinical sleep medicine specialist. Spend my days seeing patients, taking care of people with narcolepsy, sleep apnea, restless legs, everything that comes my way. And then I have a side interest in doing sleep medicine advocacy, especially for permanent standard time. Dr Jones: And we may get to that. I mean, that might be part of our conversation today. So, you've now read all of the articles in this issue, and it's a really great issue. There's a lot of new developments in sleep neurology. There are some updates for clinicians, people who see patients with sleep disorders that I think are, are timely and important updates. You have this unique view because you have just read all of these articles, really good articles by expert authors. When you read through these, Dr. Johnson, what was the biggest, what was the biggest thing that surprised you? Dr Johnson: I think the biggest surprise for me is just so many changes in, in all of these articles. I realized how easy it was for us to make a journal that is so different from a few years ago. Whether it's Dr. Stahl's obstructive sleep apnea and new ways to think about endotyping sleep apnea that is gonna have treatment implications or the new treatments that are out there like tirzepatide, the changes that we're having with restless leg treatment. I particularly wanted to have a chapter on circadian neurology that Dr. Abbott did a great job really highlighting how if we think about the timing of when we give meds, the timing of when we eat, how that really can help neurological health, brain health, overall health, as well as mental health and cognition, especially as the AAN thinks about brain health as a whole, not just treating our patients, but how we can treat the population of people by improving sleep. I like how we hit on all these different areas in this issue. Dr Jones: And I don't know how you managed to do it. They're just a small number of articles. We cover a lot of existing territory with well-characterized diseases, with new advances. But there's a lot of new stuff in sleep, and so somehow, it's all packed in there. It's really impressive. One of the things I was gonna ask you about was an evolution, and this has been a number of years now in how we manage restless leg syndrome. When I was training, it was all about dopamine agonists, and that was your first line. And over time, the evidence has supported moving away from that, and now we have more recent guidelines that have come out, and it's really the alpha-two delta-one calcium channel antagonists. How is that transition going? Do you still see people in practice who come in on dopamine agonists? How is that going? How's the field responding to that? Dr Johnson: That's one of my most frequent restless leg consults. So even though it's been years since I have really initiated dopamine agonists in my patient, every day we get in people often on very high doses of dopamine agonists, and their doctors have just been escalating and escalating these meds over the years, and they come in with horrible augmentation. Their symptoms are much worse than they used to be, happening earlier in the day. And so, trying to get these patients off of these meds that are addictive, the way I like to teach about it is these dopamine agonists are the Fioricets of the sleep world. We know they work great, but in the long run, the patients are gonna be worse overall. And so, it's so hard to get people off these dopamine agonists, just like it's so hard to convince a headache patient that they don't need their Fioricet and that they're gonna be better off if we can get them off of it. What I think has really changed is we have more options to use. So, the alpha-delta-like agonists like gabapentin are now considered first line, but there's a lot of patients who they just don't work well enough with or they don't tolerate. And so, what do you do in that case? It's easy when that works, but and, when that doesn't work, we are being much more aggressive these days with iron replacement, potentially even trying to push ferritin levels in refractory patients up to three hundred, and using IV iron rather than just oral iron to get over the absorption issues to get the brain levels high enough. Motor stimulators, little cuffs that kind of go around the leg and stimulate the peroneal nerve in a certain way that not only can give people immediate relief, but also some data that suggests that over time it actually lessens their restless legs. We have agents like dipyridamole that work on the adenosine system in a sort of new novel pathway at addressing restless legs. And then the opiates, often meds like methadone or Suboxone can be used in some patients. But as we're getting more of these other options, often we don't need to go to those levels because we do have more to work with. Dr Jones: So, the key point is lots of options. We're not starting with dopamine agonists anymore. And I think the fact that you're still seeing a lot of patients who have been initiated on that probably tells us there's an education gap field that we need to work on. So, another thing that I noticed reading through the issue was, and this feels like a change over the last few years, is the availability and the tendency to use in-home sleep apnea testing as opposed to formal, traditional in-lab. And that feels like a great new option, and maybe that increases and improves availability for patients who need access to the test. But how do you work through that? Dr Johnson: So, I love in-home testing. We've been using it for over a decade. Other parts of the country where insurances didn't sort of mandate it are now being more mandated. I think the real change happened for a lot of places over the pandemic when labs closed down. But I think it's good because it brings a lot more patients to us. They get tested, they get tested quicker. People who would say, "I would never go into a lab. Oh, I'll do a home study." So, it just does bring more people in, and it gets them to treatment that they need that can really be life-changing. But it's not for everybody. The biggest people are people that have other bad pulmonary issues. If you're on oxygen therapy, you should not be getting a home study. That really should be a group of people that come in the lab. Similarly, if you have bad COPD, you probably should be getting a full in-lab study, so we can get more monitoring. Central sleep apnea is an interesting one. It can be very hard in some cases to differentiate the centrals and obstructive nature as well on a home study. Doesn't mean you can't do a home. So, if it's a person that just can't get an in-lab study easily, maybe you start with the home. If it looks purely obstructive, and you're all set, then you got an answer, and you can move on. But if you get back a home study that looks questionably central, they're gonna need to come into that lab. So, if you already know they're high risk because they're on narcotics, cause they have congestive heart failure, it's usually worth going straight to the lab. But again, you may consider a home study based on the patient. Patients that really cannot use the equipment can also be an issue. So, if they've had a debilitating stroke and have no one to help them put on that device, or cognitively they just can't handle the device, they're gonna be someone who's gonna benefit from coming into the lab and getting the help from the techs. So, those are the big populations that you might go starting for a home. And then the other thing that confuses a lot of people, the home is only for diagnostics. It really isn't for treatment. So, I have patients that say, "Oh, like, you can just titrate my CPAP with a home study." No. So if it's a treatment decision where they're not doing well on treatment, or I need to figure out do they need CPAP or BiPAP or IVAPS or one of these more complicated treatments, those are people that are gonna need to come into the lab to get that treatment portion of the evaluation. Dr Jones: What a great summary. That's like everything I needed to know about who do I need to bring into the lab and who do I think maybe could do an at-home study. Really great. And speaking of devices, I think all of us who see patients in the room here and our listeners out there online have experienced patients, and this feels like a very recent phenomenon to me, are coming in with their commercial at-home wearable device. And they have printouts sometimes, and they show me their phone, and they give me some numbers that I don't really know how to interpret. Reading through this issue, I learned a couple of great new words. I learned about orthosomnia, right? So, people who become so preoccupied with their sleep, it keeps them awake at night, literally, right? I mean, it's a complete paradox. I learned about nearables, so things that aren't necessarily wearables that are just in the room while the patient is sleeping that monitor proxies for sleep quality, sleep stage, and other things. And I frankly, I'm not really sure what to tell patients. So, what do you tell patients who come in with all the data? Like, or how do you tell patients to use these? Dr Johnson: I think these devices can go both ways. So, I do kind of say the pros and cons of these devices. I think for a lot of patients, they're empowering. It's getting them to think about sleep, to wanna know how good their sleep is. Are they getting enough sleep? So, if it's used in those ways, it's gonna be very helpful. I actually had a patient last week, and they noted that they're having big desats all night and could show me essentially an overnight oximetry data rather than me having to order it, and I had days of data, which sometimes can be too much. But in this case, it's like, oh, when he was on his side that night, he looked a lot better, so I can use that to give advice to the patient about particular treatments. He actually went down to Mexico, and a doctor friend gave him oxygen therapy while he was there randomly. And we could see on the nights that he had the oxygen therapy, it did really help his central sleep apnea pattern. And so that pushed us towards saying, "Let's qualify you for that up here in the States." So, I think in some cases it can give really important data. Now, I saw a posting on social media the other day of someone saying, "Can I get advice on how to improve my REM sleep? My tracker says I have no REM sleep, and I need to do something about it." There's really not data to support needing to do something about it. And so, I do think it can get some people on these wild goose chases, trying to get to a certain percentage of sleep. And these trackers, they're good in a lot of ways, but they're not perfect. He could be getting REM sleep that the tracker on him does not show. You want to relate it to what symptoms are they having. I think they can be very good for trying something out. So, let's say someone, has their tracker telling them they get five hours of sleep, and they try this intervention, and that helps them show that they got the seven hours of sleep, or they went from no REM to REM and it goes in the right direction. It can help give them that positive feedback that something they're trying, is working. But the absolutes for any given patient, it's hard to over-- What does it mean if it says you've got a 50% score versus a 70% score? That may or may not be meaningful in any given person, but again, they can compare themselves to themselves. If they were a lower score and now they're a higher sleep score because they did something that was meaningful, and that goes along with them feeling better, that can help give them that positive feedback to do something good. Dr Jones: So, a little bit of a mixed picture. Dr Johnson: Yeah. Dr Jones: Sometimes they help. Sometimes they distract. Hopefully- Dr Johnson: And as a provider, sometimes it can be overwhelming because they're like, "Come look at my year's worth of data." And you're like, "No." Dr Jones: Yeah. Dr Johnson: You know, let me see one page or two pages of data and be like, "Yep, okay, I get it." Dr Jones: Just show of hands in the audience, who in the room wears a sleep device at night, like a ring or a, some kind of sleep monitoring app? That's about half the audience. Dr Johnson: This is why they're here. Dr Jones: So that's really helpful, and I think it is. You want to be supported by the data. You want to be supported by evidence and high-quality biometric evidence. Another big trend, and this has been a number of years in the making, is the understanding, Dr. Johnson, of the relationship between sleep physiology and neurodegenerative disease. One of the things I love about neurology is there's still so much left to learn about the normal physiologic functioning of the brain. So glymphatics and other aspects of sleep physiology that we didn't know about a decade or two ago. When you think about how that relationship has developed, sleep physiology, maybe sleep disorders and neurodegenerative disease, how has that changed your approach to talking to patients? Do you counsel patients differently now because of what we understand better about that? Dr Johnson: Yeah, I mean, we are still limited with our data. We have so many studies that show the associations between whether it's not enough sleep, too much sleep, or having a sleep disorder like obstructive sleep apnea, and that being a risk factor for stroke or Alzheimer's or Parkinson's. But we still sort of lack the treatment trials that necessarily say, "If you treat obstructive sleep apnea, you're gonna have less dementia," or, "You're gonna be less likely to have that stroke." So, we have a lot of physiological studies, a lot of reasons why it makes sense, but we don't have that final, nail in the coffin to say, "If you do this, you'll definitely be better." So, we know certain groups are more at risk. If you have obstructive sleep apnea and you are symptomatic, you seem to have higher cardiovascular risk. If you have a person who's had a stroke and we find a milder case of sleep apnea, and they're someone that's totally asymptomatic. They say, "I sleep fine. I feel fine." There's not great data to say, "If you treat your sleep apnea, you're gonna be less likely to have a stroke." Now, if they come in and they're sleepy and their sleep apnea is really severe, and they have more hypoxic burden, which is also more connected with a lot of these risks, I'm going to say, "I think you are in the higher risk group of sleep apnea people who it's probably gonna be more likely to help your cardiovascular risk, your dementia risk." We can counsel them, and then it's really a personal decision. Some people are like, "No way. I'm never gonna use a CPAP machine, ever." And other people are like, "You know, my mom had a stroke. My dad had Alzheimer's. I want to do every possible thing I can to make it less likely that I have this outcome that I want to avoid." And so, you're going to take that in to, you know, do you want to try this treatment or not? It's a lot easier when you have outcomes that you can follow, like, "If I try CPAP, does my blood pressure get better? Do I stop having AFib attacks?" It's a lot harder when, will I or not get Alzheimer's ten years down the road or have that stroke? Dr Jones: It's hard to get people to do things for kind of an abstract prevention down the road, but could be important. Are there trials going on that are going to assess this data? Dr Johnson: Yeah. We currently have a big trial getting people right away, right after their stroke, on CPAP, and not only looking at prevention, but also looking at recovery outcome. It's been running for several years. Hopefully, we'll get enough data to close out the study coming up. Dr Jones: We'll look forward to that. Dr Johnson: Yeah. Dr Jones: So, I'm really excited to get to our audience here, but before we do that, I do want to ask Dr. Johnson one more question. Dr. Johnson is famous for her advocacy for sleep in general, but specifically related to Standard Time. So, let's do a little experiment here. I didn't warn Dr. Johnson about this, so we'll see how she does. She does a ton of advocacy. She's a pro. So, pretend like we're in DC, and I'm a senator, and we just got in an elevator. You're going to give me your elevator pitch on what we should do. Dr Johnson: So, you know, sleep is one of the few essential things in life. We need to eat, we need to drink, we need to have clean air, and we need to sleep and when we improve sleep, we can improve basically every outcome, whether it's academics, whether it's productivity, whether it's our physical health, our mental health. And the problem is we structure our lives in a way that really keep people, and especially our teenagers, from getting the sleep they need. And one of these structural things we do is permanent daylight savings time. Essentially, what you're doing is you're putting the sun out later, makes it harder to go to bed. I was just talking to someone, the sun's going down at 9:00, and you need to get your kid to sleep at 7:30, 8:00 so they can get the amount of sleep they need. That is almost an impossible task because their circadian rhythms are being pushed later, they can't fall asleep on time. Then you're setting their clocks an hour earlier, so when that alarm clock is going off at 6:00 AM in the morning, it's actually 5:00 AM in the morning. You're squeezing sleep from both sides, and it's basically impossible to get enough sleep. A lot of people think the only problem with daylight savings time is twice a year with the changes, and there are certainly harms related to that. So, a lot of people think if we went to permanent daylight savings time it would be better, and we got rid of those changes. What they don't realize is that permanent circadian misalignment by setting the sun more ahead, at 1:00 to 2:00 instead of at noon causes the sleep and circadian disruption all year round that leads to increased incidents of strokes, of heart attacks, of obesity, of cancer, of suicides, of depression, of worse academic grades. Again, pretty much every outcome you have there that relates to brain health, we have now data that shows that it's worse. And so, we can improve our lives if we can go to permanent Standard Time. Dr Jones: You convinced me. How about that? If there were any skeptics in the room, I doubt there are any left. We only went to like the fifth floor there, and she... I'm like, "I'm voting for this. Whatever, whatever this bill is, I'm gonna vote for it." So, I'm excited to get to the audience here. Before we get to questions and answers, and we want you to get your questions ready for Dr. Johnson. I do have a couple of trivia questions. And we've been doing this for a little while now on the podcast. The first trivia question actually relates to arts and culture. Dr Jones: What famous artist used transitions between sleep and wake states to inspire his art? Anybody know? Guest Speaker 1: Is it Van Gogh? Dr Jones: Not Van Gogh that I know of. There in the back. Guest Speaker 2: Picasso. Dr Jones: Picasso, not that I know of. Right here. Guest Speaker 3: Salvador Dali. Dr Jones: Salvador Dali. We have a winner. Thank you for your answer. So apparently, I read this. Salvador Dali would sit in a chair holding onto a metal key and wait until he fell asleep, and it would fall out of his hands and drop into a bowl, and it would wake him up. So, then he would pick it back up, and he would go in and out of sleep trying to generate hypnagogic hallucinations, basically, and he would use that to inspire his art. And you think about his art, maybe that kind of makes sense. All right, now I've got a neurology trivia question. Okay, so maybe we're a little more comfortable with the neurology trivia in here. What is the center in the brain that is responsible for REM sleep atonia? Guest Speaker 4: The receptor is for erection in the lateral hypothalamus. Dr Jones: That is not correct. REM sleep atonia. Right here. Guest Speaker 4: Emilio Malgona, Hyannis, Massachusetts. Dorsal raphe nucleus. Dr Jones: We'll give you credit for that. Very good. Excellent. So, the- Dr Johnson: Well, no. That's actually the serotonin. He's talking about another one. Dr Jones: Oh, I thought I heard, I thought I heard- Dr Johnson: You heard dorsal Dr Jones: ... I heard dorsolateral tegmental nucleus of the pod. Dr Johnson: Not quite. Dr Jones: You get a prize anyway, sir, just for, just for answering. Thank you very much. All right. So, we're all warmed up here. So, Dr. Albin, what do you think? Should we get some questions from the audience? Dr Johnson: All right, we've got some questions. Guest Speaker 5: I have a statement and a question. Dr Jones: Please tell the podcast your name again, sir. Guest Speaker 5: Steve Spar, New York City. The tyranny of the morning people. You don't want people, you don't want the sun to go down too late because it'll keep people up longer. I spent my whole life fighting people like you. I am a nighttime person. Why do I have to go to sleep earlier? I want to go to sleep later. I want to wake up later. I don't want to wake up at 7:00 in the morning. I want to wake up at 10:00. There's a certain tyranny that we must use circadian rhythms of the majority, and it persecutes people like me who are night people. Dr Johnson: So that is a great question. Guest Speaker 5: What say you? Dr Johnson: What say me is actually the harms of daylight savings time are actually to the night owls, and don't really affect the morning people. I can still go to sleep on time and get up on time without that pressure of needing to go to work. The night owl people, they can't fall asleep until later. They want to sleep in earlier, but we're forcing them to get up an hour earlier for work and school. And because we're doing daylight savings time, you're not getting the morning light you need, you're getting too much light at night, and you are more sensitive to a delay in your circadian rhythm, which makes you even more of a night owl and increase the degree of social jet lag. So, we actually see that the harms and risks of things like depression, cardiovascular risks are much greater in night owls than they are in normal people or morning larks. And this is again why the risks are the highest for our teenagers, who are essentially all night owls. You're making it harder for them to fall asleep on time. You're making them more and more of a night owl that it becomes more out of line with our standard social schedule. So, what we can do for a night owl is say to our schools, say to life that we want to change our society norms of getting up early. But that has nothing to do with daylight savings time. That has to do with how we make our schedule Dr Jones: All right, next question. And introduce yourself to the audience. Guest Speaker 6: Sure. I'm Sanjay Rathi from New Haven area, Neurology. Movement disorders, Parkinson's disease, sleep disruptions, sleep-regulating REM, RBD issues, what are your recommendations? And as things get worse, what additional intervention should we do? Dr Johnson: Yeah, I think it's hard with a lot of our neurodegenerative disorders, it's a two-way sleep. The disorders themselves often worsen sleep quality, have decrease in their sort of circadian amplitudes, and so that can affect sleep ability. And so, trying to do the things that promote sleep, like getting lights down in the evening, keeping things dark and quiet, doing cognitive behavioral sort of therapies if that's needed can all be helpful. Very high incidence of obstructive sleep apnea or other sleep-disordered breathing, whether it's Parkinson's or other neurodegenerative disorders, so evaluating and treating that if need be. And some of these people, especially as they get later on, you may end up considering medication for insomnia because their underlying disorders was causing it and there's, and you're not going to CBTI your way out of it. We do have the new orexin antagonist sleep agents, which are more recommended for older people and probably safer agents than your Z drugs and some of the other sleep meds out there. So, some people should be on some of those meds if their sleep is so disrupted. I've seen some sleep studies where it's basically like wake, sleep, wake, sleep, wake, sleep all night long. And it's like, wow, you really cannot sustain sleep, and we think it's not just a behavioral thing. I think it is part of their underlying Parkinson's and underlying disorders that can really cause major sleep disruption. Dr Jones: It's a great question. Before we get more from the audience here, Dr. Albin, I'm just curious, you know, you got some questions from online. Don't know if any of those stood out to you. And the other thing is, I think about your practice, Dr. Albin, as a neurointensivist, there's some great content in this issue on how to maintain an adequate sleep environment in the hospital and the importance of that for the acute episode, maybe for some long-term outcomes. When I was reading the article, I didn't really didn't think about the ICU setting. That must be-- what do you do in the ICU? Dr Albin: Well, we happen to have a question about just that. Dr Jones: Well, there you go Dr Albin: From Dr. Manners of Baltimore, Maryland. "What meds should I be giving patients in the ICU or the inpatient setting to preserve or recalibrate their sleep-wake cycles? Is there anything that we can do besides just getting them out of bed during the day?" Dr Johnson: Meds are always hard cause as sleep doctors, we're usually the last one to recommend meds. But there are situations and scenarios where meds may be appropriate. I can't say what's one better than the other, and some of the meds we have probably aren't even available as options in the hospital. So, the, you know, again, the orexin antagonist may be a good class to try to use, but they may not be an option. There was a good study that looked at empowering the patient and whether or not the ICU patients are empowerable. But they give a card to the patients in the hospital and say, "Tell your nurse to turn off my TV and my lights. Do I need all the blood draws all throughout the night, or can it be put off to the morning?" And trying to empower the patient to ask for these things and do some of the behavioral things. And they found that doing that did improve the duration of sleep, did reduce some of the number of awakenings that people ended up having at night. So, I think the ICU is a very particular population where there's a lot of things you can't get rid of. But certainly, turning on the lights, turning off the lights, and trying to limit noises as much as you can, in those night hours, trying to give some sense of a 24-hour day. The other thing is feeding is really important to circadian rhythms. I had a patient that had a brain bleed and, after it, she just her circadian rhythms were just off, and part of it was she was getting tube feeds through the night. So, one of the very first interventions we did was to move her timing of her feeding so that it wasn't in sleep, and that really did help make a difference in getting her back on a pattern, along with light therapy and other behavioral techniques as well. Dr Jones: It's a great question. Dr Albin: Absolutely. I mean, I think that validates just that we spend a lot of time actually asking like, "Can we feed people during the day?" Or, "Can we, can we limit the amount of baths that are happening at 3:00 in the morning?" We also had another one from the audience that came from Dr. Lavina Singla of Mississippi, and I think a lot of our patients are asking this question. Is melatonin addictive? Dr Johnson: Is melatonin safe? Is melatonin addictive? I think with any sleeping aid, people become addictive to what they perceive is the outcome. So, if they said, "This got me to sleep, and now I'm sleeping great, I don't want to come off of it." And so, you get this to meds that are truly addictive, but even meds that aren't felt to have that addiction, there is certainly a behavioral change. And that's a lot of what cognitive behavioral therapy is working with these patients on, is challenging that belief of maybe it isn't the med, maybe it's your internal belief and your worry about doing this. One thing about sleep is sleep happens when you are relaxed and calm and not worried. When you're worried about thinking that thing you're worried about is whether or not you're getting sleep, then you don't sleep. In terms of melatonin, if you don't need to use it, I wouldn't use it. If you are gonna use it, I'd try to use as low doses as possible. Do we know all the risks? We don't know. And especially I think there are potentially more risks in a growing child than, maybe someone who isn't having the same sort of hormonal, needs and growth needs. But then again, if you have, let's say, a kid with autism and melatonin helps him sleep, I'd much rather use melatonin than a lot of other agents, and if that really changes their functionality, that probably is very good for them and better than having them not get sleep. So, I think you have to weigh each individual situation and combine it, especially with the behavioral approaches so that hopefully this is not a long-term addictive thing you're on. Dr Jones: So, it's complicated. Sounds like it. Dr Albin: Not a straightforward answer. Dr Jones: I thought that was gonna be just this hard no, but I guess it is something you have to think about. So, I want to really take a minute here to thank Dr. Karin Johnson, who has been our interviewee for this episode of the Continuum Audio Podcast sleep issue just came out. Really want to encourage our subscribers, our listeners, and our studio audience here to enjoy it. Thank you, Dr. Johnson, for joining us today.

El domingo 26 de julio murió Betye Saar en su casa de Los Ángeles, en su sueño, rodeada de familia. Tenía noventa y nueve años. Y cuatro días antes de cumplir cien. Durante setenta años transformó imágenes de opresión racial en imágenes de resistencia, convirtió la iconografía racista de la mammy en acto de poder, y esperó hasta los noventa y dos para que el mundo del arte decidiera mirarla de frente. Le damos el espacio que merece. También esta semana: el Museo de Arte de Filadelfia reúne por primera vez en la historia los dos Girasoles de Van Gogh, el de 1888 y el de 1889, y lo que dice la distancia de un año entre los dos. La Courtauld Gallery de Londres inaugura la primera exposición de Georgia O'Keeffe en suelo británico. La Royal Academy presenta la retrospectiva de Richard Dadd, el pintor victoriano que pasó cuarenta y dos años internado en un manicomio después de matar a su padre y que en ese tiempo creó algunas de las obras más extraordinarias de la pintura victoriana. El juez que en abril ordenó a David Nahmad devolver el Modigliani expoliado por los nazis añade ahora intereses prejudiciales que podrían sumar millones. Y bajo una fábrica de pasta en Gragnano, cerca de Nápoles, aparecieron ochenta y cinco tumbas del siglo VI antes de Cristo con escarabajos egipcios de Naukratis, ámbar del Báltico y cestas de fibra intactas. El pasado no para. Aparece donde no lo esperabas. Referencias y enlaces:

Today, we're sharing the first episode of OMMM, Getty's newest podcast and first video podcast.This series encourages you to engage with works of art mindfully, wherever you are. Part art history, part mindfulness meditation, each episode focuses on one work of art and uses it as an inspiration for meditation and reflection. Long-time museum educator and meditation practitioner Lilit Sadoyan translates her work leading mindfulness meditation tours at the Getty Museum into a podcast that fits into your daily routine. Between episodes, catch Lilit's interviews with fascinating guests like a sleep historian, a mountain climber, and an art conservator, who shed new light on familiar works of art.Today's episode features a sensory awareness meditation inspired by Vincent van Gogh's Irises (1889). Van Gogh's Irises is one of the best known works in the Getty collection. This was one of the first paintings the artist began after entering an asylum following his mental breakdown in Arles. Van Gogh found respite and recovery in the garden—and in his art.With irises shown in full bloom erupting directly from the damp soil, this painting makes it easy to imagine the experience of being down on the ground in a garden on a spring day. Being outside in a garden engages all of our senses—the feeling of the wind, the sound of birds, the scent of warm earth. This experience inspires the episode's sensory meditation.Subscribe to OMMM wherever you get your podcasts and at getty.edu/ommm, where you can also find additional images and transcripts.Subscribe on YouTube for the video version: https://gty.art/4wZysOS

Can the work outlive the man enough to forgive him? Frank Lloyd Wright designed the homes that quietly shaped how millions of Americans live — and he was, by nearly every account, a genuinely difficult person to love. David (Black Sheep Makery, Big Dudu, Dudetunes) joins me to trace Wright's life from a childhood box of wooden blocks to Fallingwater, the Guggenheim, and a tragedy at his own home that killed seven people. We use his story to ask a bigger question: when the art is this good, does the artist's life even matter — and where do we draw that line today?

Picture a twenty-something widow in Paris, a sick one-year-old on her hip, and an attic full of paintings nobody wants—not galleries, not critics, not even her own family.That widow was Jo van Gogh, and the paintings belonged to her late husband's brother, a mostly forgotten failure named Vincent. What she did next didn't just save a legacy. It invented one. Bestselling author Jo Piazza tells her story in The Parisian Heist, and by the end of this episode, you may never look at a Van Gogh—or a woman rebuilding her life from nothing—the same way again.The Parisian Heist moves between two timelines that mirror each other in surprising ways. In the past, we watch Jo van Gogh turn grief and financial desperation into a masterclass in reinvention—she becomes an art dealer, manipulates the market, and manufactures the myth of the "tortured genius" we still associate with Vincent today.In a second timeline set in 1996, three broke art students get pulled into a heist against a corrupt, billionaire art-dealing family, guided by a widow with her own scores to settle. Piazza calls it a "delicious beach read," but underneath the spice—and yes, there's a very spicy memorable scene in the Louvre — sit real questions about who gets to be called an artist, who gets the credit, and what a woman is capable of when she has nothing left to lose.Piazza didn't just research Jo van Gogh's story — she recognized it. As a journalist-turned-novelist raising three kids, she's candid about the balls she drops daily, the deadlines she meets with help from what she calls "an army of babysitters," and a marriage where, in her words, she "married her glass ceiling."That honesty is exactly why this book lands the way it does: it isn't really about Impressionist art. It's about what a woman builds when the life she expected falls apart, and about the quiet, radical decision to keep going anyway.For anyone standing in their own version of that attic — starting over after loss, after motherhood rearranges everything, after the version of life they planned stops making sense — Jo van Gogh's story, and Jo Piazza's telling of it, is proof that reinvention isn't just possible. It's often where the real story begins.Go pick up a copy of The Parisian Heist by Jo Piazza HERE!
One commentator has said that a parable is “storytelling with a message,” that also declares a truth, and that also asks for a response. So, when Jesus is telling a parable, it's not just a literary exercise or a brain teaser. He's using a story to call His listeners into some kind of transformation. But whether it ends up being an "ah-hah" moment for the listener depends upon their heart. Maybe parables are the ultimate heart detectors. Art credit: "Heart and Soul" by Jan Camerone.

¿Has sentido que ibas tarde porque no te especializaste pronto? ¿Que tu camino lleno de giros y cambios de rumbo era una señal de que algo no iba bien? Hoy te traigo el libro que, con datos y ciencia, demuestra que casi todo eso es mentira. En este episodio resumimos Amplitud (Range, 2019), de David Epstein, periodista de investigación que se lee los estudios científicos de verdad y luego te los cuenta para que los entiendas. La tesis: la especialización temprana solo gana en entornos donde las reglas no cambian. El mundo real de los negocios no es uno de esos entornos. Tiger Woods empezó con siete meses de vida y un palo de golf. Roger Federer probó mil deportes antes de elegir. Los dos llegaron a lo más alto del mundo. Pero cuando los científicos estudian cientos de casos, el camino de Federer, no el de Tiger, es el más común entre los que llegan más lejos. En entornos amables, como el golf o el ajedrez, donde las reglas son fijas y el feedback es inmediato, la especialización temprana funciona de maravilla. Pero en entornos malvados, donde las reglas cambian y la respuesta llega tarde o equivocada, la amplitud le gana. Y los negocios, el liderazgo y la innovación son, sin excepción, entornos malvados. En este episodio vas a llevarte: ✅ Por qué la historia de Tiger Woods engaña y la de Roger Federer es la norma ✅ La diferencia entre entornos amables y malvados, y por qué te importa para tu negocio ✅ Por qué cambiar de rumbo es información valiosa, no debilidad (con Van Gogh como prueba) ✅ Cómo tu amplitud, esas cosas distintas que has hecho, puede ser tu ventaja competitiva ✅ Por qué el mayor experto puede ser el peor consejero (y qué pasó con el Challenger) Segundo episodio del bloque dedicado a la atención y el enfoque. La semana anterior vimos con Cal Newport cómo recuperar el control de tu atención frente a la tecnología. Hoy damos el paso siguiente: una vez que recuperas tu atención, ¿en qué la inviertes?
In this episode, Fred Lawrence speaks with Ingrid Daubechies, James B. Duke Distinguished Professor Emerita of Mathematics at Duke University and a National Medal of Science recipient. Daubechies takes us from her childhood fascination with calculating multiples to her groundbreaking work on wavelets—mathematical building blocks that have revolutionized image and signal analysis. She talks about how her research helped the FBI compress millions of fingerprints, analyze seismograms, and even distinguish authentic Van Gogh paintings from forgeries. She also tells the story behind the whimsical Mathemalchemy Project, a collaborative art installation that celebrates the pure joy and creativity of mathematics.

Zander Van Gogh, founder and CEO of No Translation, joins Bob and Randy to discuss his leap from a seven-year career at LinkedIn into entrepreneurship, sparked by a year spent traveling to 50 countries in a year. The conversation covers how Xander used AI tools to plan travel, learn languages, and build a global network, as well as his current work helping mid-market companies actually adopt AI rather than just buy licenses. They also dig into networking philosophy, prompt-writing tips, balancing authenticity with automation in content creation, and broader questions about which tech innovations are genuinely useful versus tech for its own sake.
This week, the great Andrew Kinsella returns to discuss Loving Vincent, a rotoscoped semi-biopic of Vincent Van Gogh that seems to mostly exist just to show off how time intensive it was to make. Listen in as we chat about the movie's laborious production, the career of Oscar Isaac (who's not in this picture), and the Beatles. Both the band and the movies. Hosted on Acast.

What happens to famous works of art when they are stolen from museums and private art collections? In the Netherlands, museums and collectors reach out to Arthur Brand, a self-styled art detective who works to track down art that has gone missing and fallen into the criminal underworld. This week on The Sunday Story, when a famous Van Gogh painting is stolen from a museum, Brand teams up with an unlikely partner – art thief Octave Durham. Together, the pair work to rescue a masterpiece from the underground market and return it to its museum home.

Una guerra del siglo XVIII, un error químico y una coincidencia inesperada dieron origen a uno de los descubrimientos más influyentes de la historia del arte: el cromo, el color que cambió para siempre la pintura.En Salud por la Historia, Andrés Kalawski y Paula Molina recorren una carambola histórica que comienza en los conflictos bélicos de Europa, pasa por Siberia y termina transformando la forma en que entendemos el color, el arte y nuestra manera de mirar el mundo.En este capítulo hablamos de historia, ciencia, arte y azar. De cómo los grandes cambios no siempre nacen de decisiones conscientes, sino de accidentes, errores y coincidencias inesperadas. De cómo el cromo llegó a manos de pintores como Van Gogh y terminó influyendo en movimientos artísticos completos. Y de cómo una innovación surgida en un contexto de guerra redefinió la sensibilidad visual de los siglos siguientes.Salud… por la historia.Descubre más episodios en Cooperativapodcast.cl
Introduction: The Line Between Learning and Stealing Well, hey there. Welcome back. And I really mean that. I’m really glad you’re here. I’m really glad that you enjoy my vast library of information. In fact, I want you to do whatever you want with it. If you can accomplish something or understand something, in fact, there’s really no limit to what I would like you to do with the information. Except for one thing. And that one thing is steal it. What Actually Constitutes Stealing in the Age of AI? And you might say, well, Mark, it’s free. You’re already giving it away for a steal. Oh, I gotcha there. That was clever. Here’s the thing. If you use the information for yourself, that’s not stealing. If you use the information to improve something or to learn, or if it acts as a springboard in which you can say, hey, Mark mentioned that thing, I’m going to go look it up further and go do a, you know, go dive right into that, that’s not stealing. However, if you essentially cut and paste my information into AI and then post the result as your own, that’s stealing. The Unique Stamp of a Creator: Why Authenticity Matters Now you could say, well, look, lots of people come up with information relatively at the same time, right? So someone could come up with something around the same time someone else does, or there might be 20 people posting about the same time. Well, that’s fine, of course. If all 20 people did their research and due diligence, you’re going to see the flavor of that person on each post. I would like to think that each and every post that I make, each and every podcast episode, every book that I write has my stamp on it. It has my signature. You know that Mark Bradford wrote that. And for it to have that signature, there’s going to be good and bad, right? You may find that these episodes are rather dense and you would like someone to talk a little slower. You might also enjoy the fact that I have a format of sort of discover, raise awareness, and then kind of give you a tangible thing to take away. AI Generation vs. Iterative Creation: Putting Heart into the Work But it’s me. And I do this stuff from scratch. I mean, let’s talk about AI a little bit. Even when I generate some images, I spend way too much time on what is basically an image that people on Spotify and YouTube and iTunes probably aren’t going to see. And yet I still spend all of that time. And when I generate an image, I don’t just say, hey, give me an image of somebody doing this. No, I spend way too much time adjusting and iterating and iterating and iterating. And I did a podcast episode called Live Life Iteratively, and we talk about that there. The truth is I put my heart and soul into these things. Ultimately, I want you to benefit from it. I want you to be wiser and smarter. I want you to have a spark because of something I said. But when someone takes that, they take what you have written and they obviously put it through an AI slop machine only to repost it, that’s stealing. It’s a bunch of other things too. But it’s stealing. The Impact of AI on Non-Creative Professions If you’re not in the creative space, you may either doubt what I’m saying, or you might think, well, I can’t really relate to that. But you can. Even if you’re not in the creative space, and I typically argue that everyone’s in that space, there are still things that are uniquely you. And those aren’t things that only you find at home. Those are things that manifest themselves in your job. And if you’re successful at what you do, part of that success is probably because you do it your way. All of the fungible pursuits are still affected by this. Even if you’re in banking, or real estate, or dentistry, or sales, you’re still going to bring what is uniquely you to the table. It’s going to give you an advantage over other people, and it’s going to be something that people recognize you by. Experience Equals Wisdom: The True Cost of Duplication You may sell something that is in no way remotely interesting to people, but you make a good living at it. And you’ve figured out a way to sell that. You’ve figured out a way to connect to other people, to potential clients, in a way that gives you a lot of success. And it was probably done with blood, sweat, and tears. You probably had to figure this out after a while. And as I say, pain equals experience, and experience equals wisdom. So you have this wisdom that you painfully acquired. If someone comes by and copies that, you may say, well, it was eventually going to get out. But if somebody copies that and says, hey, I’m unique in this way because I do this thing… You would then say, well, no, you’re not unique. Now you’re a duplicate because you just stole the thing that I do. The Dirty Secret of AI Training Models and Piracy I’m not even talking about patents, trademarks, and copyrights. I’m talking about systems and things and ways of communicating, and ideas that people can come up with independently. The age of AI brings with it a lot of ups and downs. In my opinion, a lot more downs than ups. And when people adopt technology, technology tends to just magnify something that they’re already experiencing. How AI Amplifies Our Basic Instincts and Desires If someone’s a thrill seeker and they have a car, but they get a fast car, well, that’s going to amplify their seeking of that thrill in a way that’s pretty obvious. If someone’s desperately seeking status and attention, and AI comes along, well, it’s going to basically enable that. Like a drug dealer saying, hey, the drugs are now free, just click this button. You’ve seen it before. You’ve seen the memes about the flyers. How every flyer looks the same. And they call them the “boomer AI flyers” because they are. Typically older people who have adopted AI and just marvel and are thrilled at the fact that they can type a few things into it and get a flyer. But the flyers all look the same. The creative space has always been a difficult place to enforce ownership and rights. In fact, even when AI came along and was trained on books, do you think those books were paid for? A lot of them weren’t. The dirty secret of AI is that a lot of the books that main AIs were trained on were pirated. Generating Art vs. Imitating Artists: An Ethical Distinction Let me be introspective and objective. Now, as I’ve said, I use typically Midjourney and spend many hours, probably too many hours, generating and regenerating and adjusting images over and over and over again just so that I can get the proper image to invoke the proper emotion, at which time I then overlay all of my text and spend way too much time deciding on a stupid font, etc., etc. So I spend way too much work on that. But I’ve generated an image. And those images are drawn from the works of artists. I could say, show me an image of two people shaking hands as if Van Gogh painted it. And it would do it. It would do it in such a way that would be fairly believable. Now, Van Gogh would never paint that, but now you’ve created an image as if you’re that person. I don’t sell that image though. I don’t sell that image as if I created it. I generated it, but I didn’t create it. There’s a vast difference between using that as a background, as an icon for one of my podcast episodes, and finding someone online, perhaps someone I know, and taking a picture of their painting, feeding it through Midjourney, and saying, make a painting just like this one. And then me posting it as if I did that. Do you see the difference? Actionable Advice: How to Avoid Becoming “AI Slop” And again, I can feel in a lot of your brains that you’re going, well, look, this just doesn’t affect me. I don’t care. But it does affect you. And again, if you’re not in what you think is a creative space, there are still aspects of what you do, your productivity and your output, that are going to be affected by AI. And if someone then uses that as a proxy, you’re going to be in trouble. You’re going to be without a job, and you’re going to fight tooth and nail to hang on to what makes you you. I’m telling you, it doesn’t feel good when that happens. So this is the part in the episode where I tell you what to do, or I say what can we do, right? So what can you do? Well, we raised awareness of it, so be mindful of this. And if you’re mindful in a way that you weren’t before, you’re going to see in areas where people after a certain age post a lot of this, you’re going to see it. It’s all you’re going to see. All you’re going to see is this, as referred to as AI slop, over and over and over again. Personally, you should avoid anything that decides it wants to take the place of your frontal lobe. And I did a podcast episode on that, and there’s an MIT study in which people don’t think for themselves. They just went, oh, okay, I’ll just ask the AI for that. Give me a bullet list of five reasons why blah, blah, blah. And now I’ll post that and shove that in people’s faces. And if someone asks that person the next day, what was your post about? They’d have no idea. That’s not information. That’s not helping people. That’s static. That’s noise, and that’s garbage. And it’s not good for you. Protecting Your Work: Takedown Notices and Platform Stringency YouTube is very stringent about takedown notices. People can post a notice and say, hey, this is my stuff. And then YouTube will come to that person who is the creator and say, okay, we’ve taken this down or we’ve demonetized it. And in some cases, when people are accused of this, it’s frustrating because they’ll be getting tens of thousands of views and the money that should be going to them goes to somewhere else. But they take that stuff seriously. I have been tagged in both Spotify and YouTube about Alchemy. And it wasn’t hard to prove that I was here first and I and my specific kind of alchemy is different than what they were saying. They even have AI, here we go, they even have AI that randomly will spot stuff and say, hey, you’re infringing. So you also risk that. Conclusion: Focus on Your Unique Gift I know it makes your head spin when you just want to eat your pancakes and you just want to go do your job. But I’m warning you that if you are someone who creates or someone who has a special way of doing something, and that’s everyone, you can be in danger of this happening to you. If you’re someone who does this sort of thing, know that there are consequences for doing it. In a perfect world, I think each and every one of us has a gift. We have a gift and can bring something to other people, to groups, to civilization as a whole. We all have a gift. And focusing on that gift is what makes us happy and productive and who we are. Focusing on copying someone else’s gifts is just not a good idea. Thank you as always. I appreciate you, and I appreciate you listening. And take care.
En '¡Buenos días, Javi y Mar!' nos vamos de fiesta con Javi y Mar, que esta vez se pasan por la gran celebración anual de la música. Entre canciones, nos cuentan historias de viajes y escuchamos las experiencias más locas de los oyentes en transporte público. También hablamos de un estudio curioso que dice que, cuando nos perdemos, tendemos a caminar hacia la izquierda, y recordamos la historia de Van Gogh. Javi nos enseña su coche nuevo y todos los gadgets que lleva encima, mientras nos metemos de lleno en esas pequeñas teorías sobre la vida cotidiana: desde por qué hacemos lo que hacemos con la lechuga hasta los vecinos ruidosos, los bolsos, la ropa interior, las colas del súper o por qué algunas parejas acaban pareciéndose. Fernando nos trae una noticia de lo más sorprendente sobre un sicario que subcontrata su trabajo. En nuestros juegos, nos ponemos a prueba con preguntas sobre nuestras costumbres en la ducha y esos objetos inútiles que todos tenemos por casa. Además, una ...

Van Gogh’s Irises, which he painted while committed to an asylum, started out violet but turned blue over time. The red he used (the color associated with madness) is gone, and all we see is the purity of the primary color associated with peace. Where his life as an artist began (optimism) looked so different from where it ended (despair). But where people’s view of him as an artist was when he died (madness) looks so different from how his life is regarded today (brilliance).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
As you may have heard in last week's episode, the Culture Gabfest is hanging up its microphones after 18 years of cultural commentary. But before our final episode, we've still got much to discuss!On this special guest-packed show, Steve, Dana, and Nadira Goffe have the power! That is the power to get into it with VSFOP Jamelle Bouie about Masters of the Universe, the latest attempt by Mattel to launch their own cinematic universe. They assess the state of IP-driven superhero movies and whether this newest entry—starring Nicholas Galitzine, as the buff, loin cloth-wearing He-Man, and Jared Leto, as the slightly lascivious Skeletor—is more than brand management.Next, they turn to the wild, surreal revenge thriller Is God Is, written and directed by Aleshea Harris based on her stageplay. They talk about how this tale of twin sisters seeking vengeance fits into the growing pantheon of Black horror as well as the ancient canon of revenge tragedies.Finally, and for the final time, it's time to talk about Taylor Swift. In the wake of her newest release, the song “I Knew It, I Knew You” for the Toy Story 5 soundtrack, the gang assembles one more time to take up the long-simmering Tay debate. Jody Rosen and Julia jump on the call/enter the Thunderdome for this, of course. In a bonus episode for Slate Plus subscribers, the panel pours one out for the recently shuttered Hampshire College and reflects on the changing landscape of the liberal arts.EndorsementsDana: The interactive, Jazz-playing, transit-obsessed, single purpose website Train Jazz. (Hat tip once more to Rusty Foster's Today in Tabs.)Nadira: The Black Film Archive which showcases Black films made from 1898 to 1999 currently streaming. Also, the year 2016 in music. Jody: For some Gabfest replacement therapy, watching academic lectures on YouTube such as the lectures of art historian John Walsh at Yale Art Galleries—including ones on Vincent Van Gogh and Dutch masters— and cultural historian Eric Lott on Racial Masquerade in America and Philippe Petit's legendary tightrope walk between the Twin Towers. Julia: Patrick Radden Keefe's new book London Falling and the song "Come Tomorrow" by Patti Scialfa.Steve: Following up on last week's endorsement, Steve can confirm that Disgrace by J.M. Coetzee is, in fact, good. Also recommended: Offshore by Penelope Fitzgerald. --Email us your thoughts at culturefest@slate.com. Podcast production by Benjamin Frisch.

Van Gogh lived a troubled life and did not garner attention as a painter until after his death by suicide. Today we dive into this complicated journey as an artist.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Ayaan Hirsi Ali was born in Somalia, grew up in Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia, and Kenya, fled to the Netherlands in 1992 to escape an arranged marriage, became a member of the Dutch parliament, and collaborated with the filmmaker Theo van Gogh on a short film about the treatment of women under Islam. Ever since Van Gogh was murdered by a Dutch Islamist on an Amsterdam street in 2004, with a death threat addressed to her pinned to his chest with a knife, she has lived under security protection. She is the author of several books, among them Infidel, her memoir, and Heretic, in which she argued that Islam requires a reformation from within if it is to be compatible with liberal democratic civilization. For twenty years she was among the world's most prominent atheists—not merely in her personal convictions but in her public arguments, which held that reason and individual freedom were incompatible with religious submission of any kind. In November of 2023, she announced that she had become a Christian. That announcement, and the essay she wrote explaining it, raised one of the most searching questions in contemporary intellectual life: what does a civilization require in order to defend itself, and can secular liberalism supply it? This week, Ayaan Hirsi Ali joins the Tikvah Podcast to discuss her diagnosis of what political Islam is doing to Europe and to America—a diagnosis that has only sharpened since October 7—and her argument that the assault on Jews and Jewish life is not merely a Jewish problem but a leading indicator of a broader civilizational vulnerability. This conversation was recorded live before members of the Tikvah Society in New York City.
