In this episode, Eric Malzone sits down with industry veteran and Harrison Co. partner Paul Byrne to unpack the "consumer health revolution" transforming fitness, healthcare, and longevity—from GLP‑1s and peptides to wearables, AI "robo docs," and accessible longevity clinics.​ ✨ Key takeaways

“Climate change is the biggest health threat of our century, so we need to train clinicians for a future where it will alter disease patterns, the demand on health systems, and how care is delivered,” says Dr. Sandro Demaio, director of the WHO Asia-Pacific Centre for Environment and Health, underscoring the stakes behind the organization's first regionally-focused climate and health strategy. The five-year plan Dr. Demaio is leading aims to help governments in 38 countries with 2.2 billion people manage rising heat, extreme weather, sea-level change, air pollution and food insecurity by adapting health systems, protecting vulnerable populations, and reducing emissions from the healthcare sector itself. In this timely interview with Raise the Line host Michael Carrese, Dr. Demaio draws on his experiences in emergency medicine, global public health, pandemic response and climate policy to argue for an interconnected approach to strengthening systems and preparing a healthcare workforce to meet the heath impacts of growing environmental challenges. This is a great opportunity to learn how climate change is reshaping medicine, public health and the future of care delivery.  Mentioned in this episode: WHO Asia-Pacific Centre for Environment and Health If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

We have a special episode of Raise the Line on tap today featuring the debut of host Dr. Parsa Mohri, who will now be leading our NextGen Journeys series that highlights the fresh perspectives of learners and early career healthcare professionals around the world on education, medicine, and the future of care. Parsa was himself a NextGen guest in 2024 as a medical student at Acibadem University in Turkey. He's now a general physician working in the Adult Palliative Care Department at Şişli Etfal Research and Training Hospital in Istanbul.  Luckily for us, he's also continuing in his role as a Regional Lead for the Osmosis Health Leadership Initiative (OHLI). For his first guest, Parsa reached out to a former colleague in the Osmosis family, Negeen Farsio, who worked with him as a member of OHLI's predecessor organization, the Osmosis Medical Education Fellowship. Negeen is now a graduate student in medical anthropology at Brunel University of London, a degree which she hopes will inform her future work as a clinician. “Medical anthropology is a field that looks at healthcare systems and how human culture shapes the way we view different illnesses, diseases, and treatments and helps you to see the full picture of each patient.” You are sure to enjoy this heartfelt conversation on how Negeen's lived experience as a patient and caregiver have shaped her commitment to mental health and patient advocacy, and how she hopes to marry humanity with medicine in a world that yearns to heal.

It's the start of a new year, and that means resolutions and recommitments to personal health and wellness. Undoubtedly, there were thousands of wearable devices purchased as presents over the holidays and many more in the post-holiday sale madness. Supplement commercials and social media ads are going strong as we start this new year. But, are these things actually necessary for health?  Today, we kick off our Winter Season of Creating a New Healthcare with a deep dive into the wellness industrial complex. Jess Greenwood, Producer of the podcast, joins Host, Dr. Zeev Neuwirth to dissect what we've heard from the experts interviewed on the show as well as our own personal experiences. We debate the role of wearables in behavior change, the influence of the wellness industrial complex, where supplements fit into a healthy diet, and what the companies that make these products really want and need from their users. If you've been a bit skeptical if that Oura ring can help you achieve max readiness or even if you're convinced those Magnesium supplements will be the game changer this year, this conversation is for you.

In this episode of Longevity by Design, host Dr. Gil Blander sits down with Dr. Ronjon Nag, Adjunct Professor in Genetics at Stanford School of Medicine and President of the R42 Group, for a wide-ranging conversation on how artificial intelligence is reshaping health, medicine, and longevity science.Ronjon makes the case for systems thinking as a necessary framework for understanding aging, arguing that health emerges from complex interactions rather than isolated interventions. He explains how objective data—ranging from blood biomarkers to wearable-derived signals—can be integrated to guide better decisions, cut through conflicting health advice, and personalize interventions. The discussion also explores how AI is becoming a foundational tool, increasingly as ubiquitous as spreadsheets, enabling researchers, clinicians, and individuals to organize, connect, and interpret fragmented health data.The conversation then turns to AI's expanding role in drug discovery, personalized health insights, and ambitious efforts such as vaccines targeting aging biology. Along the way, Ronjon examines both the promise and the limitations of these approaches, emphasizing why interdisciplinary, data-driven methods—and clear thinking about causation, risk, and uncertainty—are essential for extending healthspan and improving long-term outcomes.Guest-at-a-Glance

Michael R brings back Ian Hughes to discuss the recent changes with Meta’s VR investments, cool content on Apple’s Vision Pro, the new Creator Studio bundle, and 25 years of Wikipedia. While Andy and Michael M are not available we look at how large companies cutting back on innovation can allow new startups and companies to flourish. With Meta refocusing more on wearables, perhaps we will see an uptick in innovative uses for VR. Which is a perfect sequel way for Michael to given his review of the NBA’s recent basketball game on the Vision Pro. The experience seemed to him to be the perfect onramp for Michael M, if it were college basketball. We then review a few older games (Civilization VII and RetroCade), coming to Apple Arcade, before looking at the Board Tabletop Gaming Console. With all this cool tech, Michael introduces Ian to the Apple Creator Studio. Is it worth it? Ian, having recently built an AI server at home via ComfyUI, thinks it may be cheap enough for his pocketbook.

“The world is a very volatile place, with currently 110 conflicts globally, and yet healthcare staff in the hospitals, even here in London, are not prepared to be the only clinician who can help in a crisis or hostile setting,” says Dr. David Gough, CEO of the David Nott Foundation, which equips providers with the skills and confidence needed to function in war and other extraordinary situations. A former British Army doctor injured in Afghanistan, Gough brings lived experience as well as a background in tech to his current role at the Foundation, which itself is anchored in decades of field work amassed by its namesake, a renowned war surgeon. As Dr. Gough points out to host Lindsey Smith, the cause could be helped by augmenting medical school curricula, but in the meantime, the Foundation is filling the knowledge gap by using prosthetics, virtual reality simulations and cadavers to train a broad swath of health workers including surgeons, anesthetists, and obstetricians. Tune in to this important Raise the Line conversation as Dr. Gough reflects on the strengths and weaknesses of NGOs in doing this work, his plans to expand the Foundation's footprint in the US, and the gratifying feedback he's received from trainees now operating on the frontlines in Ukraine and elsewhere. Mentioned in this episode:David Nott Foundation If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Your physiology doesn't always follow what the textbooks say. In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Marco Altini (ultra runner, endurance coach, data scientist, and thinker at the intersection of physiology, technology, and performance). Marco opens up about the moment he realized that doing the same high-carb diet he recommended to himself for years wasn't actually working as well as he thought. He walks us through how shifting to a periodized approach - changing fueling based on training demands rather than sticking to a fixed carb ratio - improved his fat oxidation, gut health, and performance markers in ways he hadn't seen before. Marco grounds the discussion in real data, including how his substrate oxidation changed after adjusting his diet and why better metabolic flexibility matters for endurance athletes. Along the way, we tackle common misconceptions about high-carb diets, the link between GI distress and fueling strategy, and why testing beats guessing when you want to understand your own response to food and training.What we cover in this episode:Why metabolic efficiency is not a single target, but a moving rangeHow nutrition periodization can support training without wrecking your gutThe overlooked connection between GI distress and everyday dietary patternsWhat Marco learned from tracking substrate oxidation instead of guessingHow fat oxidation and VO₂-related metrics can change with nutrition shiftsWhy weight loss is not the same thing as improved performanceThe role of testing in understanding what your body actually responds toHow to think critically about fueling without copying elite or influencer strategiesLinks:Follow Dr. Altini's Substack and find him on Instagram @altini_marcoMarco's Substack article "Periodized Nutrition and Metabolic Flexbility for Endurance Performance"Marco's Substack article "Learnings from a Year of Periodized Nutrition and Metabolic Testing"Bob's Metabolic Efficiency Training book (3rd edition)More about our guest: Marco holds a PhD cum laude in applied machine learning, a M.Sc. cum laude in computer science engineering, and a M.Sc. cum laude in human movement sciences and high-performance coaching.

Mike Howard is back on the podcast! We start with a proper catch-up: his retreats, my TEDx prep, and the reality of juggling health goals alongside real life. From there, we dive into what's been taking over the wellness section of the internet lately: longevity, biohacking, and the obsession with tracking everything. We talk about why the basics are still the basics (sleep, strength training, protein, veggies, daily movement), and why chasing the "perfect" plan can make consistency harder, not easier. We also get into identity-based habits, expectation management, and simple environment tweaks that make healthy choices easier—without needing a new gadget, a cleanse, or an entirely new personality.

AI has mastered language, sort of. But the real world is way messier.In this episode of TechFirst, John Koetsier sits down with Kirin Sinha, founder and CEO of Illumix, to explore what comes after large language models: world models, spatial intelligence, and physical AI.They unpack why LLMs alone won't get us to human-level intelligence, what it actually takes for machines to understand physical space, and how technologies born in augmented reality are now powering robotics, wearables, and real-world AI systems.This conversation goes deep on: • What “world models” really are — and why everyone from Fei-Fei Li to Jeff Bezos is betting on them • Why continuous video and outward-facing cameras are so hard for AI • The perception stack behind robots and smart glasses • Edge vs cloud compute — and why latency and privacy matter more than ever • How AR laid the groundwork for the next generation of physical intelligenceIf you're building or betting on robotics, smart wearables, AR, or physical AI, this episode explains the infrastructure shift that's already underway.GuestKirin SinhaFounder & CEO, Illumixhttps://www.illumix.com

Gary Shapiro has spent decades at the center of the global consumer technology industry, leading the Consumer Technology Association (CTA) and building CES into one of the most important stages for innovation, policy, and deal-making on the planet. In this first episode of 2026, Gary joins Charlie, Rony, and Ted to preview CES, unpack the explosion of AI across every category, and deliver unusually blunt takes on tariffs, China, manufacturing, and U.S. innovation policy. He explains how CES has evolved from a TV-and-gadgets show into a global platform where boards meet, standards are set, and policymakers, chip designers, robotics firms, and health-tech startups all collide.In the News: Before Gary joins, the hosts break down Nvidia's $20 billion “not-a-deal” with Singapore's Groq, the stake in Intel, and what that combo might signal about the edge of the GPU bubble and the shift toward inference compute, x86, and U.S. industrial policy. They also dig into Netflix's acquisition of Ready Player Me and what it suggests about a Netflix metaverse and location-based entertainment strategy, plus Starlink's rapid growth and an onslaught of “AI everything” products ahead of CES.Gary walks through new features at this year's show: CES Foundry at the Fontainebleau for AI and quantum, expanded tracks on manufacturing, wearables, women's health, and accessibility, plus an AI-powered show app already fielding thousands of questions (top query: where to pick up badges). He also talks candidly about his biggest concern—that fragmented state-level AI regulation (1,200+ state bills in 2025) will crush startups while big players shrug—and why he believes federal standards via NIST are the only realistic path. The discussion ranges from AI-driven healthcare and precision agriculture to robotics, demographics, labor culture, global supply chains, and what CES might look like in 2056.5 Key Takeaways from Gary:AI is now the spine of CES. CES 2026 centers on AI as infrastructure: CES Foundry at the Fontainebleau for AI + quantum, AI training tracks for strategy, implementation, agentic AI, and AI-driven marketing, and an AI-powered app helping attendees navigate the show.Fragmented state AI laws are an existential risk for startups. Over 1,200 state AI bills in 2025—including proposals to criminalize agentic AI counseling—could create a compliance maze only large incumbents can survive, which is why Gary argues for federal standards via NIST.Wearables are becoming systems, not gadgets. Oura rings, wrist devices, body sensors, and subdermal glucose monitors are starting to be designed as interoperable families of devices, with partnerships emerging to combine data into unified health services.Robotics is breaking out of the industrial niche. CES will showcase the largest robotics presence yet, moving beyond factory arms and drones to humanoids, logistics, social companions, and applied AI systems across sectors.Tariffs, alliances, and AI will reshape manufacturing. Gary is skeptical of “Fortress USA” strategies that try to onshore everything, pointing instead to allied reshoring (Latin America, Europe, Japan, South Korea) and the long-term role of AI-powered robotics in changing labor economics and global supply chains.This episode is brought to you by Zappar, creators of Mattercraft—the leading visual development environment for building immersive 3D web experiences for mobile headsets and desktop.

In this powerful episode of Unstress Health, Dr Ron Ehrlich is joined by a true pioneer in healthcare -

Renato (Ren) Circi, co-founder of SAVA, a London based MedTech company building a new generation of minimally invasive continuous glucose monitors and molecular wearables.In this episode we rewind to the underground labs at Imperial College London where Ren and his co-founder Raph first immersed themselves in biosensors and began questioning the status quo of health monitoring. Ren explains how their shared obsession with measuring the body more effortlessly led to SAVA's founding and what it really looks like to push through years of scientific failure in order to build a complex medical device platform.We dive into why SAVA manufactures everything in-house, how their micro sensor architecture differs from traditional filament based CGMs and why controlling every layer from chemistry to algorithms is essential if you want to iterate fast on performance. Ren sets out SAVA's long term vision of continuous molecular tracking for everyone, not just people with diabetes, and what could be unlocked once you can monitor many molecules in real time from a single patch.We also talk about regulatory expectations for CGMs, the reality of one way product decisions in medical devices and the difficulty of fundraising for a consumer facing yet highly regulated deep tech company. Ren closes with candid reflections on what he would do differently, how he protects time for family and why working on a problem you truly care about with people you genuinely like is the only way to survive the journey.Timestamps[00:00:21] Origins at Imperial and discovering biosensors[00:01:59] Long horizons, repeated failure and staying in the game[00:03:56] Why SAVA manufactures everything in-house[00:06:46] How SAVA's micro sensor CGM platform actually works[00:09:36] From diabetes to universal molecular health monitoring[00:12:02] Patient experience and CGM adoption in healthcare systems[00:13:43] When CGMs become cheaper than finger-pricks[00:15:15] Misconceptions about CGM and continuous molecular sensing[00:17:21] Why building CGMs is one of the hardest engineering challenges[00:22:54] Fundraising in unconventional deep tech MedTech and advice for foundersConnect with Ren - ⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/circi/⁠Learn more about Sava - ⁠⁠https://www.sava.health/Get in touch with Karandeep Badwal - ⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/karandeepbadwal/ ⁠⁠⁠Follow Karandeep on YouTube - ⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@KarandeepBadwal⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to the Podcast

“People are not looking for a perfect, polished answer. They're looking for a human to speak to them like a human,” says Jessica Malaty Rivera, an infectious disease epidemiologist and one of the most trusted science communicators in the U.S. to emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic. That philosophy explains her relatable, judgement-free approach to communications which aims to make science more human, more accessible and less institutional. In this wide-ranging Raise the Line discussion, host Lindsey Smith taps Rivera's expertise on how to elevate science understanding, build public trust, and equip people to recognize disinformation. She is also keen to help people understand the nuances of misinformation -- which she is careful to define – and the emotional drivers behind it in order to contain the “infodemics” that complicate battling epidemics and other public health threats. It's a thoughtful call to educate the general public about the science of information as well as the science behind medicine. Tune in for Rivera's take on the promise and peril of AI-generated content, why clinicians should see communication as part of their professional responsibility, and how to prepare children to navigate an increasingly complex information ecosystem.Mentioned in this episode:de Beaumont Foundation If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

How Therapists Can Help Clients Finally Sleep: An Interview with Jessica Fink, LCSW-S Curt and Katie interview sleep specialist Jessica Fink, LCSW-S, about what therapists often misunderstand about sleep—and what actually helps when clients are stuck in cycles of insomnia, nighttime anxiety, or maladaptive sleep behaviors. Jessica breaks down the limits of sleep hygiene, the fundamentals of CBT-I, what to do when clients wake up at 3 a.m. spiraling, how to distinguish tired vs. sleepy, and why wearables and blue light might be overrated concerns. She also shares how therapists can confidently assess sleep disorders and support behavioral sleep change without overmedicalizing the issue. About Our Guest: Jessica Fink, LCSW-S Jessica Fink, LCSW-S is a Texas-based therapist who specializes in sleep issues, PTSD, OCD, chronic pain and maladaptive overcontrol. As a CBT-oriented provider, Jessica uses structured, data-driven approaches combined with flexibility and creativity to create real, lasting change. Jessica values client independence, designing therapy to equip individuals with their own tools and coping strategies. Jessica's practice is entirely online and accessible to all Texas residents. Key Takeaways for Therapists Sleep hygiene is prevention—not treatment for insomnia. CBT-I is counterintuitive: don't go to bed until sleepy, and get out of bed if awake too long. A consistent wake time matters more than bedtime. Blue light isn't the enemy most people think it is. Wearables can increase anxiety and worsen sleep perfectionism (“orthosomnia”). Therapists play a crucial role even in medically driven sleep disorders like sleep apnea. Scheduled “constructive worry” times can reduce nighttime rumination.

Send us a textIn this practical and eye-opening solo episode, Justin Roethlingshoefer returns to the studio after 37 days on the road to unpack one of the biggest frustrations he sees in clients today: we're drowning in health data—but starved for wisdom.Justin reflects on years of working with athletes, touring artists, entrepreneurs, and high performers who obsess over “perfect scores,” recovery percentages, and the chase for “optimal.” But the real breakthrough doesn't come from wearing more devices or collecting more numbers—it comes from interpreting what the body is actually saying.Through personal stories, experiences from touring, and a powerful real-life client transformation, Justin breaks down the wearable conundrum: the cultural lie that your device knows best. In reality, wisdom—not algorithms—is what creates sustainable change. He reveals the four metrics that actually matter, the 3-day trend rule, and why reacting to a single number is sabotaging your progress.TakeawaysRecovery, readiness, and sleep “scores” are man-made algorithms, not truth.Wisdom comes from raw metrics, not colors, badges, or percentages.The 3-day trend rule reveals patterns your daily numbers can't.Data without context leads to frustration, misalignment, and burnout.Your body tells the truth—technology can only reflect it.Stress is multi-dimensional: mental, physical, emotional, spiritual.Real progress comes from adjusting lifestyle rhythms, not adding hacks.Sound Bites“Chasing optimal keeps you from ever living optimal.”“Your wearable is a tool—not your identity, not your worth.”“Scores are algorithms; wisdom is interpretation.”“Knowledge is knowing. Wisdom is understanding.”“HRV is the language of your body's stress adaptation.”Chapters02:20 — Living It vs. Teaching It Why Justin vowed never to become a disconnected “expert.”04:15 — What You Actually Get From This Show Education + practical application from someone who lives it.06:00 — Introducing the Wearable Conundrum Why people chase “optimal” but never live it.08:30 — 37 Days on the Road: Data Chaos How fluctuating environments changed Justin's sleep and readiness.15:00 — Why Tools Don't Transform You Interpretation—not devices—is what creates wisdom and change.17:20 — The Four Metrics That Actually Matter HRV, VO2 max, sleep quality, resting HR/respiration rate.21:40 — Why Scores Are Misleading The problem with readiness, recovery, and strain algorithms.24:15 — HRV: The Longevity Metric What research reveals about HRV and all-cause mortality.34:00 — Interpreting Your Body's Language Moving from knowledge → understanding → wisdom → action.36:00 — Final Encouragement Own your different.

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you looking for ways to be better with your marketing strategies? In this episode of The Guild Live Show, Tyson discusses how AI, particularly the integration of HealthKit with ChatGPT, is transforming personalized health coaching. The conversation also covers neuroscience-backed learning strategies, the importance of embracing individuality over mediocrity, and agile marketing tactics like fast advertising..The founder of Mo Martech shares some bitter truths that challenge the current marketing norms. One is that marketing is not all about generating revenue. If you focus on that alone, you are forced to kind of do anything that sticks and chase leads for instant gratification. What you want to do is build affinity and relationships with consumers, which really requires patience. The second truth is that good marketing strategies involve consistent, multiyear narratives based on the psychology of the consumer. You need to understand over time how a consumer reacts or what draws their attention. From this, you can develop and maintain a good marketing strategy.In order to engage consumers with marketing, you need to be authentic and have something that fits your brand. Authenticity is the guardrail and is the thing that will connect your brand or product with the consumer. They need to feel you are authentic and that your marketing is genuine and real.

“Delivering a baby one day and holding a patient's hand at the end of life literally the next day...that continuity is very powerful,” says Dr. Jen Brull, board chair of the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP). And as she points out, that continuity also builds trust with patients, an increasingly valuable commodity when faith in medicine and science is declining. As you might expect given her role, Dr. Brull believes strengthening family medicine is the key to improving health and healthcare. Exactly how to do that is at the heart of her conversation with host Lindsey Smith on this episode of Raise the Line, which covers ideas for payment reform, reducing administrative burdens, and stronger support for physician well-being. And with a projected shortage of nearly forty thousand primary care physicians, Dr. Brull also shares details on AAFP's “Be There First” initiative which is designed to attract service-minded medical students – whom she describes as family physicians at heart -- early in their educational journey. “I have great hope that increasing the number of these service-first medical students will fill part of this gap.”Tune-in for an informative look at a cornerstone of the healthcare system and what it means to communities of all sizes throughout the nation.  Mentioned in this episode:AAFP If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

The tech we have now is incredible and much more accessible than it used to be, but it is not meant to be perfect. It is a baseline, a snapshot of where you are right now, so you can pay attention to trends over time instead of obsessing over a single reading.I share how I look at my own data, from steps and workouts to sleep and blood pressure, including moments where the numbers clearly miss the mark. The goal is not one hundred percent accuracy, the goal is consistent action. When you show up and are roughly sixty to seventy percent on target most of the time, you will get better long term results than chasing perfection, burning out, falling off, and restarting over and over.If you are someone who fixates on calories, macros, or daily stats, this conversation is a reminder to zoom out, use the information as a tool, and keep doing the best you can daily or almost daily. Your progress is built on patterns, not isolated numbers, and you have more room to breathe and adjust than you might think.Please share this episode with anyone you think would be interested in listening to it.Visit darylperrypodcast.com for links to the show page on each of the major podcast directories.

In this episode of TechMagic, hosts Lee Kebler and Adam Davis McGee unpack the rapid shifts transforming AI, hardware, and creative industries. Cathy is away this week and will be back in the new year. Lee and Adam explore how RAM manufacturers are pivoting away from consumer electronics toward AI, and how this will spike gaming and device prices in 2026, why Meta's mixed-reality delays open the door for Google's surprising partnership with Warby Parker, and how Google may be quietly edging ahead in the AI race. In the second half, Lee speaks with Ryan McMahan, who breaks down the legal and ethical storm surrounding AI-generated music. Together, they examine copyright grey zones, artist rights, and why AI is becoming more of an accelerant for creativity than a replacement for human artistry.Come for the tech and stay for the magic!Key Discussion Topics:01:40: RAM Shortage Will Devastate Consumer Electronics Pricing in 202606:12: Meta's Mixed Reality Delay & the Battle Between Google and Meta11:29: Why Google Will Win the AI Race Over OpenAI23:52: AI Music Generation and the Copyright Crisis on Spotify33:28: Meet Ryan McMahan: Artist Manager Fighting for Creator Rights35:34: Blanco Brown's Story: From Platinum to Fighting AI38:50: The First Major Artist Covers an AI-Generated Song40:45: Understanding Covers vs. Derivatives in Copyright Law45:51: AI as a Creative Tool, Not a Job Replacement50:32: The Fast Fashion Problem in Modern Music Production57:31: Independent Artists Need Representation at Policy Tables01:01:45: Creative Industry Workers Share AI Concerns and Opportunities01:04:17: Meta's Consent Prompt: Is Algorithmic Boost Tied to AI Training Permission?01:05:59: Key Takeaways: AI, Copyright, and the Future of Creative Work Hosted on Acast.
