Most people don't find out they have kidney damage until it's too late. Discover 18 early signs of kidney problems that often occur before the damage is too severe. When it comes to chronic kidney disease, prevention is key.0:00 Introduction: Kidney function explained 2:11 Early kidney damage signs 3:00 Stages of kidney disease 3:48 What destroys kidney health?7:07 18 visible kidney damage signs 10:08 How to prevent kidney diseaseHealthy kidneys are imperative to your overall health. The kidneys are situated deep within the rib cage, and have your adrenal glands on top. Each filtering unit of the kidney, called a nephron, contains a highly concentrated network of capillaries. There are 1 million nephrons in each kidney! This number often decreases with age, although it typically does not cause many symptoms. Kidneys are very good at compensating, even if they're 50% damaged. One of the earliest kidney health warning signs is protein in the urine. At-home urine tests detect the albumin-creatinine ratio, which you want to keep below 30 mg/g. The stages of chronic kidney disease are associated with specific percentages of nephron loss:Stage 2: 20% loss Stage 3: 60% lossStage 4: 85% lossStage 6: 95% lossThe good news is that if you catch kidney disease in time, it can be reversed. The following factors often cause kidney disease: •Ultra-processed foods •PFAS•Insulin resistance •Medications•Low vitamin D •Low magnesium •Low omega-3s •Poor sleep Here are 18 early signs of kidney disease:1. Puffy eyes 2. Swollen feet3. Swollen hands 4. Sudden weight gain5. Foamy urine6. Itchy skin 7. Pale skin 8. Dark circles under the eyes9. Bruise easily10. Dark urine11. Blood in the urine12.

198.The High Cost of Leadership Silence This episode of the Visibility Factor podcast discusses the often-overlooked topic of leadership silence and its hidden costs to organizations. She emphasizes that invisible leaders lead to invisible results, affecting not only their personal growth but also their teams and the organization as a whole. The episode explores the reasons behind leadership silence, its consequences, and practical strategies for leaders to become more visible and impactful. takeaways Leadership silence can have hidden costs for organizations. Invisible leaders often miss key opportunities for innovation. Silence can lead to a lack of influence and missed promotions. Clear communication is essential for team motivation and alignment. Burnout can result from silent leadership and lack of delegation. Visibility is about demonstrating value, not self-promotion. Intentional actions are necessary for effective visibility. Embracing vulnerability can inspire others to follow suit. Feedback from mentors can help improve visibility efforts. Visible leaders unlock opportunities for themselves and their teams.

Smart Agency Masterclass with Jason Swenk: Podcast for Digital Marketing Agencies
Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training As a user, do you still use search engines or have completely defaulted to AI? How will this shift reshape the agency world? How will ads work when people are only getting the one answer they need? Most agency owners are still treating SEO like it's 2012 — optimizing keywords, buying backlinks, and praying to the Google gods. But search has already changed. People are asking AI for answers, not Googling for links. And if you want your agency or your personal brand to stay visible in this new era, the rules are completely different. Today's featured guest will unpack the shift from SEO to AEO and why most businesses are invisible to AI without even realizing it. Kasim Aslam is one of the world's leading voices on Answer Engine Optimization. He runs one of the largest AEO communities and leads a six person research team that has analyzed millions of AI citations to understand how large language models choose their sources. He is also the author of The AEO Blueprint and the founder of multiple companies, including a staffing agency, a mastermind, and AEO.co. Kasim has spent the past year deep in the trenches studying how AI crawlers gather, filter, and prioritize information. When it comes to AEO, nobody has more real data. In this episode, we'll discuss: SEO is over. Understanding AEO. Why brands may get lost in LLMs. The quiet Google change that just changed everything in AI citations. The future of ads.

Why SEO Is No Longer Enough: The Rise of Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) To understand Answer Engine Optimization, we must first understand that, despite what some agencies may be saying, it is not the same as SEO. Traditional search engines prioritize links. That is why entire industries exist around buying them. In the world of LLMs, backlinks barely matter. The number one ranking factor for AI citations is schema markup. And only 12.4% of websites have clean, validated schema. In other words, nearly 90% of brands are invisible to AI crawlers, regardless of how strong their SEO is. Schema isn't just another optimization tactic. It is the visibility layer. It is the metadata that helps LLMs understand and categorize your content. If your schema is broken or missing, AI cannot reference you even if your content is excellent. This is the equivalent of having a beautiful storefront on a street no one can find. The second key is social mentions. In the same way SEO relied on links, AEO relies on people talking about you. For instance, a TikTok comment from someone in the agency industry saying Jason Swenk is their go-to agency guy counts as an authority signal. LLMs weigh these human mentions heavily. Finally, a lot of the nuances on AEO are changing every day, but Kasim has learned that the real key is building authority, long-form content. That along with clear schema and personal brand is the future of staying in the conversation. Why Personal Authority Beats Brand Authority in AI Search One of the biggest shifts Kasim highlights is that answer engines prefer individuals. A person can write a book, earn a PhD, share opinions, create content, develop mastery, and build authority in a way brands cannot. That means generalists are in trouble. If your expertise is scattered, AI won't know how to classify you and won't choose you as an authoritative answer. Meanwhile, someone who goes deep in a single topic becomes the preferred answer. It is a shift away from corporate brand authority and toward personal authority. Authority is not spread across a company anymore. It sits with people. Agencies that hide behind a brand name will lose visibility. Personal brands that plant a flag will win. For agency owners, this is huge. You do not need a bigger brand. You need clear expertise tied to a real person. This is exactly why Jason positions all the Agency Mastery content around him. Personalities thrive. Brands get lost. Where LLMs Get Their Data (and Why That Just Changed Overnight) Kasim's research revealed that 21 percent of all AI citations once came from Reddit. YouTube followed at 18.8 percent. These platforms had deep context and raw human conversation, which LLMs love. Then Google quietly changed everything. Twenty two days before the interview, Google cut off 90% of the internet from AI crawlers by reducing search results from hundreds to ten. Because LLMs rely on deep search results (not the top ten), reducing the searchable depth limits the information AI can access - removing platforms like Reddit from the AI training pipeline. AI tools rely heavily on these deeper results for nuance. By limiting access, Google essentially removed Reddit and other community based sites from the AI food chain. This change sent shockwaves through stock prices and visibility, and most people never noticed. Google is protecting the content needed to train AI because only two organizations truly own the global knowledge graph: Google and Amazon. OpenAI and the rest are crawling, not casing, the internet, which means they operate at a major disadvantage. Google is playing statecraft. And according to Kasim, Google will win the AI race. The Rise of Screenless Search and Voice-Driven Results According to Kasim, we are quickly moving toward a screenless world. Eric Schmidt has said the screenless future is years away, not decades. And the younger generation is already there. Over 55 percent of people under 25 use voice instead of text. Voice queries require different markup, structure, and formatting, and only 0.3 percent of websites use voice schema. Meanwhile, 65 percent of all searches end in zero clicks. People are asking, getting an answer, and moving on. That number does not even include the people who have stopped using search altogether and have already shifted to answer engines. This means your future website is not for your audience. It is for AI. Kasim is rebuilding his personal site in Notion because he believes CSS-light, simple, stripped down sites will perform better for AI ingestion. We are entering a world where content is created for machines first and humans last. How Google Gemini Is Rewriting the Future of Advertising Here is a wild data point. When Kasim set up new Chromebooks for his kids, he discovered the default search engine was not Google. It was Gemini. Google owns Chrome. Google owns Chromebooks. Yet they replaced its primary revenue driver on its own device with a product that currently has no ads. This tells you where the company is headed. They are rebuilding a new knowledge graph optimized for answer engines, while competitors still reply on the old search-oriented graph. And the future ad model will be nothing like what agencies grew up on. If one answer becomes the default experience, where do ads go? How are they shown? What are users willing to tolerate? And will businesses have to give away deep content to earn visibility the same way early YouTubers and bloggers did? These questions will reshape the entire lead generation ecosystem. Data, Moats, and the K-Shaped Economy The people who win in this new world are those who own data. Not tool access or workflows. Data. Custom GPTs, custom models, and proprietary knowledge bases become your moat. We are entering a K-shaped economy. Twenty percent of people and businesses will become unstoppable because their productivity will outpace demand. Eighty percent will fall to zero. The middle disappears. That means agency owners must adapt, evolve, and lean into deep expertise. Vibe coding (the rapid, exploratory use of AI tools) and no code platforms are accelerating this divide. Kasim's team recreated a software that normally costs ten thousand a year in a weekend. Entire SaaS categories are about to be wiped out.

Heritage craft scales on design and strategy, not good intentions. Ruth Álvarez-DeGolia, founder of Mercado Global, and Emmy-winning filmmaker Fabiola Bercasa Beckman share how Guatemalan handwoven textiles become modern handbags that compete at Free People and Holt Renfrew. From labor hours to in-country design, they show how simplifying silhouettes increases artisan wages and perceived value, while embedding impact into the product—not a hangtag. This is a blueprint for ethical, beautiful accessories that customers want and that provide real income for the women who make them.✨ 3 Takeaways• Ethical fashion must compete on design and price — Impact only works if the product stands on its own at retail. • Simpler designs can pay artisans more — Fewer cuts and smarter layouts often increase hourly wages and margins. • Impact should be built into the product — Visible craftsmanship beats vague claims and one-for-one models every time.

Branding as a Verb: Actionable Insights from Emily BrackettIn this episode, host Josh Elledge speaks with Emily Brackett, Founder of Visible Logic, Inc. and the creator of Branding Compass, to explore why branding is far more than a logo or color palette. Emily explains how branding is an active, ongoing process that shapes how people perceive your business—through both tangible design elements and intangible emotional connections. Their conversation breaks down the common mistakes founders make, the rising role of AI in branding, and the foundational strategic work that separates memorable brands from mediocre ones.Why Branding Is an Ongoing, Strategic DisciplineEmily emphasizes that branding is a verb—an active, continual effort to shape how your business shows up in the world. Rather than treating branding as a one-time design task, she encourages founders to think of it as ongoing brand management: regularly reviewing messaging, auditing visuals, and ensuring every touchpoint aligns with the identity you want to project. This mindset shift helps companies avoid stagnation and ensures their brand evolves alongside their business goals and audience needs.She also highlights a major pitfall among startups: jumping straight into logo design or website building without first defining brand strategy. Emily explains that foundational clarity—your brand traits, ideal client, differentiators, and emotional tone—provides the direction needed for compelling visuals and effective marketing. Without this groundwork, companies end up with generic identities that fail to resonate, leading to wasted money and lackluster market response.Finally, Emily discusses the growing influence of AI in branding. While AI can accelerate content creation and ideation, she warns that it cannot replace strategic thinking. When businesses skip foundational brand work and rely solely on AI tools, they simply produce generic content faster. Instead, Emily recommends using AI as a supplement—leveraging it for brainstorming, inspiration, and iteration, but grounding all outputs in a clearly defined brand strategy.About Emily BrackettEmily Brackett is the Founder of Visible Logic, Inc., a branding and design agency specializing in helping businesses clarify their identity and communicate it consistently across all marketing materials.

In this episode, Carolyn and Amber pull back the curtain on a $500M cybersecurity company that came to Passetto stuck in last-touch reporting, declining win rates, an overreliance on product trials, and zero visibility into what SDRs were actually working.In just 14 days, their Growth Sprint surfaced what months of internal analysis couldn't: the true drivers of revenue, why trials convert at only 5%, why hand-raisers deliver 2X the deal size and win rate, and how 40% of opportunities are created with no traceable sales trigger at all.We walk through the exact before-and-after: their revenue architecture score, the missing SDR prospecting layer, the downstream impact of “low-signal” opportunities, and the data that finally gives the team conviction to modernize their demand engine.Even with strong tools and a mature sales motion, they're operating with only 55% revenue visibility, record-low win rates, and a demand strategy built almost entirely on trials—until the Sprint changes the trajectory.We break down the insights their team uncovers:Why 55% of SDR workload comes from trials that win at only 5%How high-intent hand raisers deliver 2X the ACV and more than 2X the win rateWhy only 35% of opportunities show early-stage signalsHow more than 40% of opportunities have no traceable prospecting trigger at allAnd how a two-week sprint becomes the “forcing function” they need to move from uncertainty to a clear set of strategic prioritiesA powerful example of what happens when companies finally get the full-funnel visibility they've been missing.

This week I'm joined by Oli Cooke, a Mindset and Performance Coach who helps driven entrepreneurs create success without all the internal side effects. After living with anxiety for most of his life, Oli now supports business owners to grow in a way that actually feels good, not just looks impressive. In our conversation we dig into visibility, courage and the messy human bits underneath growth. Here are some of the topics we talk about: what it really takes to do the thing even when fear is coming along for the ride why busy work feels safe - and how to spot when you're hiding behind it how to shift the focus from "How do I sound?" to "Who might this help?" why not every shiny opportunity is meant for you and a surprisingly grounding conversation about AI… and whether it's actually saving time or just swallowing it If you're standing on the edge of something bigger - a talk, a pitch, a new level in your business - you're going to love this conversation.

Examining the critical management of our "personal energy economy," McKay argues that mental and emotional fuel is a finite resource that must be consciously directed toward the future rather than the past. He illustrates this powerful shift through the story of Boston Marathon survivor Adrianne Haslet, who refused to spend her energy on bitterness, choosing instead to focus entirely on her recovery and return to dance.Drawing on James Clear's Atomic Habits, the episode also reviews how strategies like "habit stacking" reduce daily friction to conserve mental capacity for what truly matters. McKay highlights the journeys of leaders like Alan Ashton and Kat Cole to show how acting with faith and owning mistakes prevents the exhausting energy leakage caused by doubt. He further argues that true vitality comes from surrounding oneself with "energizers" and letting others take the credit to preserve social reserves. Finally, the discussion emphasizes that prioritizing progress over perfection connects daily actions to a higher meaning, transforming fatigue into drive.Main Themes:Resilience requires directing energy toward the future, not the past."Habit Stacking" minimizes the energy cost of new behaviors.Doubt drains mental fuel while faith focuses it.Own mistakes and let others win to conserve social energy.Indecision traps personal growth within the boundaries of safety.Visible progress, rather than perfection, generates momentum.Connecting effort to meaning replaces fatigue with drive.Top 10 Quotes:"There are far better things ahead than any we leave behind.""You can spend your time replaying in your mind what someone else did or didn't do to hurt you... Or you can set aside any injustice, don't give the people who hurt you a second thought, put your energy to your future.""You don't rise to the level of your goals; you fall to the level of your systems.""Faith is surrender and allows you to put your energy in the right place.""Potential grows in discomfort. And your potential begins one step out of your comfort zone.""Time has a way of just doing your work for you.""Energy shared is energy multiplied.""Meaning gives emotional energy because it ties effort to significance."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen
Hold on to your butts, lil onions, it's a ridiculous but hilarious ride today. Today, the siblings cringe through a pathetic game of one-upsmanship between two fathers dead set on ruining Christmas for both their families. Ross scrapes together enjoyment for Matthew Broderick while basking in the camp of Danny DeVito and Kristen Chenoweth. Carie can't get over the nonsensical motivations of both fathers, but she should just leave that writer alone, right? Oh, and the reviews, lil onions, you are in for some giggles.

Welcome to the first episode of the December Rich Woman Reset, a special month-long series designed to help you walk into 2026 grounded, confident, and deeply visible. While most people treat December as a wind-down, wealthy and intentional women use this month differently. They slow down, reflect, and reconnect with the identity they want to lead with in the new year. In this episode, Karen guides you through a gentle but powerful identity reset — because clarity, confidence, and presence shape your visibility long before strategy ever does. You'll explore: • Why December is the most powerful month to reset your identity • The identity question every woman must ask before 2026 • How to reflect on 2025 without judgment • The moments you dimmed your light — and the ones you were brave • A grounding mantra for the month: "In December, I choose to be visible, valuable, and available for opportunity." If you're ready for a quieter, more intuitive, more intentional way to prepare for the new year, this is your starting point. Listen in and begin your visibility rebirth.

The Rainers continue the 6-part series called “The Future Church.” Over the next episodes, we'll explore how the landscape of ministry is changing—and how leaders can prepare with wisdom, courage, and hope. Thom and Jess discuss how churches are making evangelism more than a slogan or a sermon topic—how to make it visible, tangible, and celebrated in the life of the congregation. Most believers genuinely want to share their faith, but they often need reminders, encouragement, and creative ways to stay focused on the mission. In this episode, Thom and Jess offer four practical ideas any church can implement to highlight the importance of evangelism every week. The post Future Church Series – Episode 4: Making Evangelism Visible appeared first on Church Answers.

As we close out the year, we naturally start thinking about everything we've accomplished and everything we still need to work on. And if you didn't achieve all your goals, that's ok! That's what next year is for. For now, let's organize our thoughts and reset our mindset. Because if you're anything like me, there comes a point when you're tired of hiding, and you're ready to be more visible. That's how I felt back in 2019, and now I have a successful business, a thriving podcast, and I've appeared on National television on multiple TV segments. It is possible, and you don't have to do it alone. Let's face our fears together! In this week's episode, we're working through 10 questions to ask yourself before 2026. If you're tired of hiding and ready to be visible, pull out your journal and get ready to get reflective. We are entering the new year with clear minds and open hearts.

Last year, I wrote that it would be very hard to decrease the number of mentally ill homeless people in San Francisco. Commenters argued that no, it would be easy, just build more jails and mental hospitals. A year later, San Francisco feels safer. Visible homelessness is way down. But there wasn't enough time to build many more jails or mental hospitals. So what happened? Were we all wrong? Probably not. I only did a cursory investigation, and this is all low-confidence, but it looks like: There was a big decrease in tent encampments, because a series of court cases made it easier for cities to clear them. Most of the former campers are still homeless. They just don't have tents. There might have been a small decrease in overall homelessness, probably because of falling rents. Mayor Lurie claims to have a Plan To End Homelessness, but it's probably not responsible for the difference. Every city accuses every other city of shipping homeless people across their borders, but this probably doesn't explain most of what's going on in San Francisco in particular. https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/what-happened-to-sf-homelessness

EPISODE SHOW-NOTESFor decades, we knew plastic was a problem. Scientists published papers. Environmentalists raised alarms. But knowing and seeing are two very different things. In 2015, a sea turtle with a plastic straw lodged in its nostril changed everything. That eight-minute video of agony went viral with over 110 million views, and suddenly plastic pollution wasn't just data—it was undeniable suffering you couldn't scroll past.This episode explores the moments when plastic's invisibility shattered. We trace how a crisis that lived in the background noise of modern life suddenly demanded our attention—when beaches became landfills, when ocean gyres the size of Texas appeared on satellite images, when the very convenience we celebrated revealed its true cost in blood and tears.You'll discover the turning points that transformed public consciousness, the images and stories that broke through decades of complacency, and why visibility alone hasn't been enough to solve the crisis. Because once the world woke up, we faced an uncomfortable truth: we'd built an entire civilization on a material we use once and can never get rid of.A Call to Act: The World's Most Comprehensive Database of Eco-Solutions.

In this legal-focused episode of The Rainmaking Podcast, Scott Love speaks with Elise Holtzman, former BigLaw attorney and founder of The Lawyer's Edge, about how lawyers can become visible experts rather than “well-kept secrets.” Elise explains that doing excellent work behind a closed door is not enough—clients and referral sources must see you as a top, credible choice. She introduces her simple “who, what, and where” framework: identify who your ideal clients and referral sources are, what problems you solve and value you deliver for them, and where they “hang out” for information (conferences, associations, publications, online communities). From there, she recommends pursuing speaking, writing, and podcast opportunities in those venues so you become the person who gets the call. Elise also unpacks the main reasons lawyers resist visibility: fear of being “salesy,” lack of time, and imposter syndrome (“I'm not really an expert”). She reframes rainmaking as service, not aggressive selling, and stresses that you don't have to be the world's #1 authority—only valuable to your audience. A major lever is building intentional referral-source networks: other professionals who serve the same clients but don't compete with you (accountants, consultants, marketers, recruiters, other lawyers in different practice areas). By collaborating on events, content, and introductions, you “borrow trust” and create win–win–win outcomes for yourself, your referral partners, and your shared clients. Elise closes with three action steps: (1) block a “power hour” to define your who/what/where and list specific A-level referral sources who've already tried to send you work; (2) proactively ask for speaking and writing opportunities instead of waiting to be discovered; and (3) talk openly about your thought-leadership work—on LinkedIn, your bio, and in conversations—so others know you're available as a visible expert.

Dr. Glen Jeffery, PhD, is a professor of neuroscience at University College London and a leading expert on how different colors (wavelengths) of light impact cellular, organ and overall health. He explains that long-wavelength light (red, near-infrared and infrared) can enter the body and brain to enhance mitochondrial function and thereby improve metabolism, eyesight, blood glucose regulation, mood, hormones and more. We also discuss how short-wavelength light from LED bulbs can impair mitochondrial health and why balanced, full-spectrum light is essential for health. Dr. Jeffery shares simple yet powerful ways to use natural and artificial light sources to enhance your metabolic function, eyesight and longevity.

Detroit's Packard Plant finally has a realistic reuse plan — and downtown's historic Leland is abruptly shutting its doors. On today's Daily Detroit, Jer Staes is joined by producer Shianne Nocerini and reporter Luciano Marcon to unpack two very different development stories that say a lot about where the city is headed. Packard Plant reboot Jer and Shianne break down the newly announced 28‑acre redevelopment of the southern half of the Packard Plant site along East Grand Boulevard, after going to the announcement on the city's east side. The plan, led by Packard Development Partners in a public‑private‑philanthropic partnership with the city and groups including the Albert Kahn Legacy Foundation, calls for a new 393,000‑square‑foot Class A industrial building and an estimated 300 permanent manufacturing jobs They outline what's envisioned for the historic Albert Kahn building: 42 affordable live‑make units, a skate park, the Museum of Detroit Electronic Music (MODEM) and more than two acres of indoor‑outdoor public and recreation space, with completion targeted for 2029. The team talks about why keeping the 1903‑era frontage on East Grand matters to the neighborhood and the city's psyche, and why this feels like a grounded, "doable" project instead of yet another Packard pipe dream. They also speculate, based on the more than 50 loading docks and rail/freeway access, that the site is more likely headed toward logistics or shipping than a data center. Leland House shutdown In the second half, Luciano joins Jer and Shianne after a very cold visit to the Leland House, the nearly century‑old former Leland Hotel downtown that's now telling remaining residents they must leave with less than a week's notice. Management letters delivered over the holiday weekend say the building will close by Wednesday, December 3, amid bankruptcy complications and stalled redevelopment efforts following the death of owner Michael Higgins. Luciano describes what he saw inside: Residents relying on space heaters Visible water damage Tarps tacked to ceilings and years of deferred maintenance The crew talks about the scramble by the city to help people relocate, the potential loss of jobs tied to longtime nightlife fixture City Club and the scale of money it would take to save the property.

How do planetary ring systems rings form, and what keeps them in line? What exactly is the Dragon Cloud of Saturn? And what's up with quasi moon 2025 PN7? To find out, Dr. Charles Liu and co-host Allen Liu welcome Cornell University's dynamical astronomer Dr. Phil Nicholson for a refresher course in orbital mechanics. As always, though, we start off with the day's joyfully cool cosmic thing, which is right up Phil's alley: the recent discovery of quasi moon 2025 PN7. Phil unpacks the orbital mechanics to explain the critical differences between quasi moons and regular moons, and also 2025 PN7's strange relationship to Earth's orbit. He also explains the dynamics of the sun's tidal forces and Earth's Hill Sphere. For our first question from the audience, Jameson asks, “Are meteorites smaller copies of planets. Are all of them the same?” Rather than discuss meteorites, which are the tiny survivors that have crashed on Earth, Phil pivots to where many of them come from in the first place: asteroids. Really big asteroids share some characteristics with planets, like being spherical in shape, whereas the smaller ones can be highly irregular, like the dumbbell-shaped asteroid 216 Kleopatra, or Arrokoth, previously known as Ultima Thule. Chuck asks Phil about the different shapes large asteroids can come in, and Phil points out 433 Eros, the second largest Near Earth Object, which is banana shaped. The ensuing brief discussion of the “is it a long, skinny asteroid or an interstellar starship?” debate, like the one sparked by Oumuamua, leads to a conversation about Arthur C. Clarke's “Rendezvous with Rama”, which described just such a starship back in 1973. Somehow, we end up looking at the “face” on Mars and the “Death Star,” aka, Saturn's moon Mimus as it was imaged by the Cassini spacecraft. Phil actually worked on the Cassini mission, and Chuck asks him to talk about his experience peering hundreds of miles deep into Saturn's atmosphere with the spacecraft's Visible and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (VIMS). Along with other instruments run by other teams, the mission changed our perception of Saturn's “boring” atmosphere, documenting aurora, lightning, and giant storms like the “Dragon Cloud of Saturn.” Our next student question comes from Marvin, who asks, “What exactly is a Shepherd moon?” To answer, Phil describes what Saturn's rings are made of, how they form, and how they're structured. He explains what happens when particles that make up the rings collide, why some rings spread over time, while others stay very narrow, and the role Shepherd satellites play in the process. We end with Chuck soliciting a few classic sci-fi recommendations from Phil, who suggests anything by Arthur C. Clarke, the Foundation Trilogy by Isaac Asimov, and almost anything by Larry Niven, including Ringworld, his most famous series.

Andy Little DO, co-founder and host of EM Over Easy podcast, shares how the show was born in a Columbus OH diner during post-night shift breakfasts—mental health check-ins that evolved into conversations about leadership skills they weren't learning in residency. As a first-generation physician from small-town Montana, Andy never had "the playbook" for navigating medicine, relying on college counselors and ED mentors who gave him opportunities and trusted him to run with them. We discuss the closing MD/DO perception gap, his teaching philosophy of calculated trust (the "10-second countdown" for critical patients), and how the emergency department teaches perspective through patient stories. Andy explains AI's current "confidently incompetent intern" phase in medical education and his mission: Mentor everyone including those navigating medicine without a roadmap.

Why are some Protestants drawn toward Roman Catholicism—and how should we think about the “one true church”? In this episode, Mark Vance launches a five-part series on the nature of the church, explaining why he remains a Protestant while seeking to speak with both clarity and charity about Catholicism.Mark walks through why historical rootedness feels especially compelling in shaky cultural moments, how true Christianity exists within the Roman Catholic Church, and yet why he believes certain teachings and practices obscure the gospel. He also introduces the four major reasons he's a Protestant: the nature of the true church, the history of the church, the question of authority, and the clarity of the gospel—setting the stage for the rest of the series.Episode Highlights:00:00 — Launching a five-part series: “Why Protestantism?” and why people are asking about Catholicism03:19 — True Christianity within Catholicism—and how some teachings can obscure the gospel08:55 — Overview of the four major reasons Mark remains a Protestant11:25 — The Protestant view of the “one true church” and the visible/invisible church distinction17:43 — How the Roman Catholic Church understands itself as the one true church (one, holy, catholic, apostolic)22:51 — Protestantism as a renewal movement within the one true church, not a competing “true church”24:19 — Are all Catholics saved?
