As geothermal heating and cooling slowly spreads in the U.S., some communities and utilities are looking to grow small pilot projects into much larger networks of pipes and heat pumps that extract and store heat in the earth to warm and cool homes and businesses as needed. We hear about a large geothermal HVAC system that demonstrates the possibilities and benefits of scaling up. Also, classic science fiction tends to assume that if aliens visit Earth, they will have done so thanks to using math and science that's like our own. But physicist Daniel Whiteson and cartoonist Andy Warner aren't so sure. They're the authors of the book Do Aliens Speak Physics? And Other Questions About Science and the Nature of Reality. And the current Trump administration has in its first year cut off the World Health Organization, dismantled the United States Agency for International Development or USAID, and overhauled vaccination recommendations, just to name a few decisions impacting health and claiming lives across the globe.  ---  Save the date for the next Living on Earth Book Club event! On Thursday, Feb. 26th at 6:30 p.m. Eastern, Terry Tempest Williams will join us live on Zoom to discuss her new book The Glorians: Visitations from the Holy Ordinary.

“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.

Thank God we left the WHO, but they haven't left us, I'll explain...Episode links:I FULLY support the Trump Admin pulling out of the World Health Organization and was proud to see legislation I introduced five years ago during COVID come to fruition. The WHO covered up on behalf of the ChiComms and pushes a leftist globalist agenda. Defund Tyranny.WHO SAYS: “We never imposed lockdowns or vaccine passports.” ALSO WHO: “You must follow lockdowns and use vaccine passports.” The WHO pushed policies that controlled movement and daily life, then denied it. People are NOT buying it.Bruce Alyward, senior advisor to the Director General of the World Health Organisation, pretends to not hear the question when asked if WHO would reconsider Taiwan's membership. Interviewer asks again and he shuts down meeting."We cannot afford to trust the WHO anymore." - Dr. Wahome Ngare from Kenya exposes a World Health Organization sterilization effort disguised as a vaccination campaign.BREAKING: New Study Reveals WHY Regulators Missed the DNA Contamination in mRNA Vaccinesl The answer was hiding in plain sight—and it explains everything.The CEO of Moderna says he is deeply disappointed that the company's vaccines for children are no longer being recommended. He openly confesses that the decline in demand has hurt the vaccine business. He says Moderna no longer expects to invest in new Phase 3 vaccine studies anytime soon because it no longer has access to the U.S. market.

Fertility specialist and founder of Montgomery Fertility Center Oluyemisi (Yemi) Famuyiwa discusses her article "Infertility public health: the WHO's new global guideline." Oluyemisi examines the historic release of global guidelines that reframe infertility as a matter of social justice rather than a luxury concern. The conversation highlights the practical strengths of these recommendations for low-resource settings while acknowledging critical gaps regarding environmental toxins and cultural nuance. Oluyemisi argues that addressing the emotional toll of fertility struggles requires a shift in how health care systems prioritize reproductive rights.

January is marked worldwide as cervical cancer awareness month. According to the World Health Organisation, cervical cancer is one of the most preventable types of cancer, yet it kills over 350,000 women globally every year. We look at how Kenya, where more than half of those diagnosed die within a year, is approaching the disease; and how Botswana manages to keep prevalence low. Also, weddings are a big deal in Nigeria, but what options do couples have when that dream wedding is just too expensive?Presenter: Nkechi Ogbonna Producers: Keikantse Shumba, Blessing Aderogba and Chiamaka Dike Technical Producer: Maxwell Onyango Senior Producer: Charles Gitonga Editors: Samuel Murunga and Maryam Abdalla

It's Wednesday, January 28th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Mexican authorities expelled Protestant pastor Authorities in southern Mexico expelled a Protestant pastor from their community this month. The issue began after Pastor Velásquez Martínez refused to participate in a Roman Catholic ritual due to his religious beliefs. Local authorities detained him for five days without charge before expelling him and his family. Evangelical families can face arrest, fines, and expulsion in parts of Mexico for their faith. Mexico is ranked 30th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most oppressive countries to be a Christian.  Catholicism declining in Latin America Analysis by Pew Research found that Catholicism has declined in Latin America over the past decade. Catholicism remains the largest religion across Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Peru. However, it has declined in the region by at least nine percent over the last 10 years. Meanwhile, the religiously unaffiliated have grown rapidly in Latin America. Protestantism has also grown in the region but only by a slight margin. United States withdrew from World Health Organization The United States officially withdrew from the World Health Organization last Thursday. This comes a year after President Donald Trump signed an executive order to initiate the process. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services stated, “This decision was driven by profound failures in the WHO's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic originating in Wuhan, China.” The withdrawal ends U.S. funding for the World Health Organization. The group is also known for its support of abortion and sexually perverted lifestyles. Thousands of California pro-lifers march Tens of thousands of pro-lifers joined the 22nd Annual Walk for Life West Coast in California on Saturday.  Participants filled the streets of San Francisco in the financial district for more than a mile. Rally co-chair Eva Muntean said, “After 22 years I still find it hard to believe how blessed we are. When I see the enormous crowd that we had today—especially so many young people standing up with love and hope for women and children. I am filled with gratitude and hope. You can't come to the Walk without seeing the promise of a better world!” Psalm 27:13-14 says, “I would have lost heart, unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Wait on the LORD; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; wait, I say, on the LORD!” Washington man stabbed for being a Christian Sadly, a man suffered an attack over his religion on Sunday morning in Washington state. The Pierce County Sheriff's Office reports they found the man in serious condition. The victim said a stranger approached him and asked what religion he was. He said something about being a Christian. In response, the stranger attacked and stabbed the victim and his dog. The perpetrator died after a confrontation with police.  The Christian Post reports that the victim has been released from a local hospital.  U.S. population down as Trump expels illegals The U.S. population growth rate is slowing as the Trump administration cracks down on illegal immigration.  New data from the U.S. Census Bureau found the population reached nearly 342 million people last year. The 2025 growth rate was half a percent, down from almost one percent in 2024. Christine Hartley with the Census Bureau said, “With births and deaths remaining relatively stable compared to the prior year, the sharp decline in net international migration is the main reason for the slower growth rate we see today.” Geopolitical and economic uncertainly drives gold up. As The Worldview reported yesterday, the price for spot gold reached $5,100 an ounce, a record. That's up 18% so far this year. Ryan McIntyre, president at Sprott Inc., told Reuters, “Gold prices continue to be supported by elevated geopolitical and economic uncertainty. Central banks remain strong buyers as they diversify foreign exchange reserves and reduce reliance on the U.S. dollar.” 100-year-old great grandfather speaks at kindergarten class And finally, CBS News reports that a kindergartener in Georgia recently brought her 100-year-old great-grandfather to class. This was to celebrate K.J. Schmansky's 100th day of school this year at Saint Thomas More School in Decatur. Her great-grandfather, Sonny Ragan, was born on October 8, 1925. He got to share 100 years of wisdom with the young class. When asked what keeps him going, Ragan said it's faith and family. 1 Peter 3:10-11 says, “He who would love life and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips from speaking deceit. Let him turn away from evil and do good; let him seek peace and pursue it.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, January 28th, in the year of our Lord 2026. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

The United States is officially out of the World Health Organization and it is long overdue. On this episode of Stinchfield we expose the WHO for what it really is a group of leftist controlagarchs obsessed with power money and stripping away American sovereignty. Nothing coming out of the WHO was ever rooted in real science. From lockdowns to mandates it was politics disguised as medicine while the organization climbed into bed with Big Pharma and silenced doctors who questioned the narrative. World renowned cardiologist and epidemiologist Dr Peter McCullough joins me to explain how the WHO abandoned science suppressed truth and attempted to turn the United States into a compliance state. This is the real reason America walked away and why we should never go back.

Top Stories for January 27th Publish Date: January 27th PRE-ROLL: GCPS From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Tuesday, January 27th and Happy Birthday to Bobby Blue Band I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Gwinnett County Police to host local hiring event Winter storm knocks out power to thousands of Gwinnett homes Parkview grad Quincy Bryant turns NIL experience into financial lifeline for college athletes All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: KIA Mall Of Ga - Sugar Hill Ice Skating Rink Final STORY 1: Gwinnett County Police to host local hiring event Thinking about joining the Gwinnett County Police Department? Here’s your chance—they’re hosting a hiring event on Feb. 6 (3–8 p.m.) and Feb. 7 (8 a.m.–3 p.m.). First things first: submit an application before the event. Once you do, an investigator will call to schedule your appointment. No appointment? You can still show up, but expect a longer wait. And no, you don’t need to attend both days. The process isn’t quick—it can take hours—so plan ahead. Phase I includes orientation, a physical agility test, an interview, a psych exam, and a background check. If you qualify, you might walk away with a conditional job offer. What’s in it for you? A starting salary between $55,923 and $86,090, a 10% hiring bonus, annual raises, and education incentives (up to 6% for a degree). Night Watch officers even get a 5% shift differential. Requirements? Be 21 by academy graduation, have a high school diploma or GED, a valid driver’s license, and be eligible for P.O.S.T. certification. Ready to apply? Visit GwinnettPoliceJobs.com. STORY 2: Winter storm knocks out power to thousands of Gwinnett homes Winter Storm Fern wreaked havoc in Gwinnett County, leaving more than 10,000 residents without power as of Sunday afternoon. Georgia Power reported that, by 5:30 p.m., 9,741 of its customers in the county were in the dark. Peachtree Corners was hit hardest, with 3,120 outages, followed by Berkley Lake and Duluth (1,729), southwest Lawrenceville (1,797), and another 905 near State Route 316. Walton EMC wasn’t spared either—1,771 customers were without power by 5 p.m. The biggest cluster? Along Five Forks Trickum Road, where 767 homes were affected. Jackson EMC also reported 1,067 outages, with 892 concentrated in Lawrenceville. STORY 3: Parkview grad Quincy Bryant turns NIL experience into financial lifeline for college athletes College athletes are making serious money these days, thanks to NIL deals and revenue sharing. But here’s the thing—most of them don’t know what to do with it. Some have advisors, sure, but plenty don’t. Quincy Bryant, a former Parkview football star and Wake Forest standout, saw it all firsthand. Unlike many, he had a plan. While still in college, he invested his NIL earnings, bought a house, and rented it to teammates. Word spread, and soon, everyone was asking him for financial advice. That’s how Final Whistle Wealth was born. Alongside his former teammate Trent Nicholson, Bryant launched the company to help athletes manage their money and plan for life after sports. They started small—one-on-one sessions, then classes—and eventually built a full program with support from Wake Forest’s Startup Lab. Now, they’re developing an app to make budgeting and financial planning easier for athletes. For more, check out www.finalwhistlewealth.com. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets 7 STORY 4: Gwinnett County to host Household Hazardous Waste Collection Day on Feb. 7 Got old bug spray, paint cans, or that half-empty bottle of weed killer sitting in your garage? You’re not alone. The EPA calls this stuff “household hazardous waste”—basically, anything that can catch fire, explode, corrode, or poison. And no, you can’t just toss it in the trash or pour it down the drain (seriously, don’t). Georgia’s Environmental Protection Division warns that doing so can pollute groundwater, lakes, and streams. That’s where Gwinnett County’s Household Hazardous Waste Collection Day comes in. Since 2018, this biannual event has made it easier for residents to safely ditch their hazardous junk. The first event of 2026 is happening Saturday, Feb. 7, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Gwinnett County Fairgrounds in Lawrenceville. Accepted items include spray pesticides, auto fluids, batteries, paint, propane cylinders, and even cooking oil. Not accepted? Ammunition, fireworks, electronics, or biohazard waste. Residents can bring up to five containers of waste for free. For details, visit www.GwinnettCB.org or call 770-822-5187. STORY 5: Gwinnett Grads Julian Ashby, Jared Ivey headed to Super Bowl LX Gwinnett County’s got a guaranteed Super Bowl champ this year, no matter what happens on February 8. Why? Two hometown rookies—Parkview’s Julian Ashby and North Gwinnett’s Jared Ivey—are heading to the big game. Ashby’s Patriots edged out the Broncos 10-7 in a snowy AFC Championship, while Ivey’s Seahawks outlasted the Rams 31-27 for the NFC title. Ashby, a 23-year-old long snapper, was flawless in the storm. Drafted in the seventh round by New England, he’s the first long snapper picked since 2021. Before that? Four solid years at Furman and a standout season at Vanderbilt. Ivey, meanwhile, fought his way onto Seattle’s roster as an undrafted free agent. The 6-foot-6 linebacker didn’t play in the NFC Championship but made his mark at Ole Miss with 125 tackles and 16 sacks after transferring from Georgia Tech. No matter who wins, Gwinnett’s streak of Super Bowl champs—now four years running—stays alive. We’ll be right back. Break 3: EAGLE THEATRE Gentleman’s Guide STORY 6: Dr. William Foege, leader in smallpox eradication, dies Dr. William Foege, the towering figure—literally and figuratively—behind the eradication of smallpox, has passed away at 89. He died Saturday in Atlanta, according to the Task Force for Global Health, which he co-founded. At 6-foot-7, Foege was hard to miss, but it was his brilliance and calm determination that truly set him apart. A former CDC director in the late ’70s and early ’80s, he spent his life battling infectious diseases and reshaping global health. His crowning achievement? Smallpox. In the 1960s, while working as a medical missionary in Nigeria, Foege pioneered the “ring containment” strategy—vaccinating only those in contact with infected individuals. It was a bold, resourceful move born out of necessity (there wasn’t enough vaccine to go around). And it worked. By 1980, the World Health Organization declared smallpox eradicated, saving hundreds of millions of lives. STORY 7: State House to operate minus one member after suspension from office The Georgia General Assembly is down yet another lawmaker this session—this time, it’s State Rep. Sharon Henderson, who’s been suspended after a federal indictment. Governor Brian Kemp signed the suspension Thursday, following a committee’s decision that Henderson’s charges “adversely affect” her ability to serve. She’s accused of two counts of theft of government funds and 10 counts of making false statements tied to federal unemployment benefits during the pandemic. Her case? It’s not moving fast—pretrial’s set for Feb. 19. Meanwhile, former Rep. Karen Bennett, resolved similar charges quickly, pleading guilty to fraudulently claiming $13,940 in pandemic relief. Kemp, required by the state constitution, appointed a review committee for Henderson’s case, including Attorney General Chris Carr, Rep. Jan Jones, and Sen. Harold Jones II. Their findings led to her suspension. With several legislative seats still vacant, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger is scheduling special elections, including one for Bennett’s seat on March 10. We’ll have closing comments after this Break 4: GCPL PASSPORT Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

As Christopher Luxon announced an election date of November 7, a strip of the North Island was under siege from another bout of brutal weather. As the clean-up and recovery continues, and families and communities grieve the loss of nine lives, questions swirl around the response. In the first Gone By Lunchtime for 2026, Annabelle Lee-Mather, Ben Thomas and Toby Manhire assess that response, and ask whether the bigger picture around climate adaptation and mitigation will filter through the forthcoming campaign. The year begins, meanwhile, with incessant geopolitical disorder emanating from the White House. As Mark Carney sets out his stall in compelling fashion at Davos, what does the Canadian prime minister's "new world order" approach have in common with Christopher Luxon's, where do they differ, and is New Zealand's prime minister on an election-year collision course with a foreign minister set upon below-parapet foreign relations and flirting with the thought of quitting the World Health Organisation? Speaking of Winston Peters, his New Zealand First Party has enjoyed a bump in recent polling. Could they emulate the populist-nationalist trends in Australia and the UK and climb even further?

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for January 22,2026. 0:30 Tens of thousands of pro-life Americans packed the National Mall for the 53rd annual March for Life in Washington, D.C., standing in the cold to celebrate life, not protest or riot. Vice President J.D. Vance addressed the crowd with a message that cut through the politics: don’t lose faith. Acknowledging frustration inside the movement, Vance urged supporters to stay hopeful and remember how far the pro-life cause has come since the fall of Roe v. Wade. We break down why Dobbs v. Jackson was a historic turning point, how the fight has shifted back to the states, and why Donald Trump remains the most pro-life president in American history for appointing the justices who overturned Roe. From state-level victories and setbacks to the future of Planned Parenthood and federal enforcement, the March for Life is proof that the culture of life is still alive — and that hope, not despair, is driving the movement forward. 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 14 states have declared a state of emergency over a winter storm approaching this weekend. TikTok will keep on ticking in the USA.The social media company has finalized its sale to US businesses who will now control operations in the US. The US has officially left the World Health Organization. 12:30 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:00 President Donald Trump’s new “Board of Peace” is shaking up global politics. With 35 countries on board, including Saudi Arabia, UAE, Turkey, Egypt, Morocco, and Israel, the coalition is a bold alternative to the United Nations, where every nation pays the same price to participate and actually gets results. We break down why Trump’s peace initiative is being attacked by the left, how critics like Susan Rice accuse him of “playing king of the world,” and why the real outrage is that Trump found a way to bypass corrupt global institutions. From rebuilding Gaza to forcing accountability in international diplomacy, we ask the big question: why is promoting world peace suddenly controversial when America leads it? 16:00 A viral story claims ICE “kidnapped” a five-year-old child in Minnesota — but the American Mamas say the truth tells a very different story. With Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson, we unpack what really happened when an illegal immigrant father fled into a snowstorm, abandoning his child, while the mother refused to even open the door to take him back. The conversation cuts through media spin, CNN headlines, and activist outrage to expose how misinformation about immigration enforcement spreads — and why ICE officers may have actually protected the child. From protesters frightening the boy to the surprising reality inside a modern detention center, we challenge the narrative and ask a blunt question: who really failed this child — ICE, or his parents? 23:00 A little-known provision buried in the 2021 Biden infrastructure bill could soon put a government-style “kill switch” in every new car by 2026 — and hardly anyone is talking about it. We break down why Rep. Thomas Massie is sounding the alarm over mandatory drunk-driving detection technology that uses cameras, sensors, and AI to monitor all drivers, not just impaired ones. From cars that can shut themselves down without due process, to privacy concerns, rising vehicle costs, and the risk of tech failures in real emergencies, we dive into what critics are calling Big Brother on wheels. And when 57 Republicans side with Democrats to keep it funded, the question becomes clear: is this really about safety — or about surveillance? 26:00 For the first time in nearly 30 years, the U.S. House of Representatives passed all 12 regular appropriations bills — and did it with bipartisan support. No last-minute omnibus. No backroom deals. Just Congress actually doing its job. We Dig Deep into why this return to regular order is such a big deal for government accountability, fiscal responsibility, and transparency. We credit Speaker Mike Johnson for restoring a committee-driven process that puts power back in the hands of rank-and-file lawmakers — and could finally slow Washington’s runaway spending. It’s not flashy. It’s not dramatic. But it might be the most important thing Congress has done in decades — and the media barely noticed. 32:00 Get TrimROX from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 33:00 Nurses in New York City are on strike — now entering day 11 — and the numbers behind their demands are turning heads. According to reports, some unions are pushing for raises that would bring nurse salaries close to $200,000 a year, sparking a heated debate over healthcare pay, government control, and the so-called free market in medicine. We dig into whether those salaries are realistic — or even possible — in a system dominated by Medicare, Medicaid, and government price controls. With hospitals dependent on federal funding, there is no true market to determine what healthcare jobs are really worth, and massive raises could ultimately hurt hospitals and patients alike. Bottom line: while unions demand more money, socialized healthcare economics may mean everyone pays the price — especially the sick. 35:30 Plus, it's Fake News Friday! We're putting you to the test with our weekly game of headlines—are they real news, fake news, or really fake news? From Elon Musk buying Ryanair and ICE “using a child as bait,” to Trump calling the National Guard “bad guys” and world leaders jamming to K-pop, can you spot the fake news? Play along, keep score, and share your results with us on Facebook page: facebook.com/AmericanGroundRadio. 39:30 We react to Senator Richard Blumenthal’s recent comments on CNN criticizing ICE agents in the wake of a highly controversial immigration enforcement operation in Minneapolis. Blumenthal labeled Americans as being “repulsed” by ICE and called critics of enforcement “abhorrent,” touching off a sharp rebuttal about the role of federal law enforcement in protecting communities and enforcing U.S. immigration law.

On Saturday, Alex Pretti – a 37-year-old registered nurse at the Veterans Affairs hospital in Minneapolis – was shot and killed by Border Patrol agents. It's the third shooting in three weeks by federal immigration officers in Minneapolis. And as violence from federal law enforcement becomes increasingly more common, it begs the question – who is joining these agencies? A few months ago, freelance journalist Laura Jedeed applied for a job with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. And she got a final offer, despite not doing the required paperwork and undergoing what she put as “minimal” vetting. We spoke to Laura before the shooting of Pretti about her background, the ICE recruitment process, and what questions she still has.And in headlines, a partial government shutdown looms as Senate Democrats vow to oppose a bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security, Trump threatens a new tariff on Canada if the country makes a free trade deal with China, and California steps up after President Trump pulls the U.S. out of the World Health Organization. Show Notes: Check out Laura's Substack – www.firewalledmedia.com/Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

President Trump's decision to officially exit the World Health Organization marks a major shift in America's approach to global health and sovereignty. In this episode, Gene Valentino joins the discussion to break down what the WHO exit really means, why crime rates are dropping nationwide, and how leadership is reshaping America's role on the world stage.We also dive into:The real impact of exiting the World Health OrganizationCrime, homicide, and fentanyl overdose statistics trending downwardSanctuary cities and immigration enforcementGlobal developments involving Davos, Greenland, Russia, and UkraineWhy leadership matters now more than everFrom football talk to foreign policy, this conversation covers the biggest stories shaping America and the world today.

Lauren and Trey pick up right where they left off, starting with a candid apology tour as they own a few mistakes listeners lovingly (and correctly) pointed out from the first two HEATED RIVALRY episodes, including a spirited mini-debate about whether the Hays Code is still “a thing.”Quick history moment: the Hays Code, officially enforced from the 1930s through the late 1960s, strictly limited what could be shown on screen, explicitly banning the depiction of homosexuality. As a result, queer stories were erased, coded, or forced into tragic endings, shaping generations of viewers' understanding of masculinity, desire, and love in ways we're still unraveling today.From there, a moving comment from a new subscriber opens the door to a rich conversation about masculinity, sexual orientation, and why HEATED RIVALRY feels so deeply resonant for so many people. Lauren reiterates (with feeling) that this is a show everyone should see, not just hockey fans or romance readers.The episode then turns toward Shane and Ilya's family dynamics, exploring how a lack of choice in childhood often shows up as difficulty with choice in adulthood. Whether it's subconsciously entering relationships where autonomy is limited or avoiding choice-making altogether, Lauren and Trey unpack this through a relational lens, drawing on David Schnarch's work around differentiation, self-definition, and the courage it takes to choose oneself.They close by tackling a question so many people quietly hold: Do I need to be fully healed before I'm ready for a relationship? Lauren compares relational readiness to being an athlete, reminding us that while training happens in the off-season, real growth requires coaching alongside teammates. Trey adds that nothing compares to the intensity of a live game, offering compassion for how much relationships can stir us, no matter how much work we've done.If this conversation resonates and you're longing for support navigating intimacy, desire, or relational growth, you don't have to do it alone.

In this episode of The Right Side with Doug Billings, Doug explores a question sitting beneath today's biggest headlines: who really gets the final say when things go wrong?From America's decision to step away from the World Health Organization, to a Supreme Court case that could reshape the relationship between the President and the Federal Reserve, to the digital systems shaping how the next generation thinks and focuses, this is a wide-angle conversation about sovereignty in the modern age.This episode examines how authority flows through institutions, how accountability and independence create tension in a constitutional republic, and why attention, cognition, and culture may be as important to America's future as law, economics, and national security.Support the show

From the state of Minnesota to Mayor Mamdani of New York City, this edition of Crosstalk takes listeners around the nation and the world to bring you up-to-date on what's happening. Here's a selection of stories from the past week: --America has officially withdrawn itself from the World Health Organization. --The Department of Homeland Security joined the Department of Justice in arresting 3 individuals in connection with the planned riot at a church in St. Paul, Minnesota, on Sunday. --A Minnesota federal magistrate judge has refused to sign a criminal complaint connected to former CNN host Don Lemon for his role in the church riot incident in St. Paul. --There's a disturbing report coming out of Minnesota that dogs belonging to an immigration officer are being targeted. --In a chilling series of social media posts on Saturday evening, Minnesota state senator and former Minneapolis mayoral candidate Omar Fateh pledged to make the Cedar Riverside neighborhood a "no-go zone" for "white supremacists." --A Biden appointed judge issued a whack ruling last week, essentially hamstringing how federal law enforcement deals with peaceful protesters in Minnesota. --Minnesota parents Destiny and Shawn Jackson claimed that their truck was lifted off the ground by a teargas canister as they were peacefully driving home with six kids from a basketball game. The problem? The couple was allegedly filmed participating in the mob that was harassing federal officers. --Federal officials on Monday announced the seizure of more than $14,000 in undeclared cash from a pair of Somali-born American citizens heading out of Minneapolis St. Paul International Airport on Sunday.

Tara breaks down why the U.S. has formally exited the World Health Organization — and why critics say the WHO no longer serves global health, but Chinese political interests. Then, Tara connects that decision to what she calls a dangerous domestic pattern: law enforcement pullbacks, prosecutors declining charges, and rhetoric that critics argue signals tolerance for violence against federal officers. From Arizona to Chicago to Minneapolis, Tara lays out why some cities now feel “American in name only.”

From an urgent winter storm warning to a blistering critique of global institutions and domestic unrest, today's episode covers weather, preparedness, politics, and power.

It's “Liberation Day” 2.0. President Trump's decision to withdraw the United States from the World Health Organization becomes final today, ending the direct threat to American sovereignty posed by the WHO's insidious efforts to advance world government.  Mr. Trump recognized the danger posed by the largely opaque use of international agreements and diplomatic shenanigans behind closed doors to give unprecedented powers over our public health to the WHO Director General, an Ethiopian Communist controlled by the Chinese Communist Party. We want no part of a reprise of Tedros Ghebreyesus' murderous malfeasance during the COVID-19 pandemic.  The U.S. can and should continue to lead the world in countering pandemics. The place to start is by recognizing their single most dangerous source: namely, the CCP's illegal biological weapons program which, with Tony Fauci's criminal help, unleashed on us and others the COVID biowarfare attack.  This is Frank Gaffney.

Right -wing members of the coalition think Israel should leave the World Health Organization (WHO). The Foreign Ministry announced that it opposes Israel's withdrawal from the organization, aligning itself with the Ministry of Health, the Israel Medical Association and senior figures in the health system who have protested the planned move. "There is a public interest in Israel remaining part of the organization, and it concerns public health and information sharing," said Nina Ben Ami, Deputy Director General for the UN and International Organizations at the Foreign Ministry, during a discussion held at the Knesset Health Committee. Also participating in the health committee discussion was Professor Haggai Levine, Chair of the Israeli Association of Public Health Physicians, who spoke to KAN's Mark Weiss.

We are a year into US President Trump's second term. He says he will tell European leaders "we have to have" Greenland at this week's forum in Davos, Switzerland and impose tariffs if they oppose him. Trump regularly hailed himself as the anti-war president on the campaign trail - and he's described himself since as the "president of peace" - but there are some who accuse him of waging a "war on women" since taking office. So, after a year back in the White House, how have the policies of President Trump's administration impacted women? Nuala McGovern is joined by Anne McElvoy, an executive editor at Politico and Jennifer Ewing, Spokesperson for Republicans Overseas UK. Brooklyn Peltz Beckham, the eldest son of the Beckhams, has said that he is not in touch with his family and does not want to reconcile with them. We don't all live our family lives on social media, but most of us do have moments when we question whether our relationships with them are good for us. How do you know when you've reached the point when the right thing to do could be to walk away? Eilidh Dorgan and psychotherapist Dr Sara Young discuss. More than 90% of medicines have never been tested in pregnancy, leaving millions of women worldwide facing an impossible choice, go without treatment, or take medication you're not certain is safe for your baby. The World Health Organisation is preparing to work with scientists, doctors and drug developers on what could be the biggest shift in decades, rethinking whether pregnant women should take part in drugs trials. Nuala talks to Martina Penazzato from the Science for Health Department at the World Health Organization (WHO) and Dr Teesta Dey, Maternal Technical Consultant at the World Health Organization and a Maternal Health Researcher at the University of Liverpool.Caroline Mitchell spent almost 10 years working for the police, including as a detective in the Criminal Investigation Department, before becoming a full-time writer. Her latest novel, The Ice Angels, has tinges of the Nordic-noir genre and is the first of a series featuring Elea, a Finnish detective whose daughter went missing 10-years earlier. She tells Nuala about the importance of writing for her and why the cityscape of Lincoln and Finland feeds into her work. This programme has been edited since broadcast.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Andrea Kidd

Send us a textHaving a baby should be safe. Yet it's far too often a death sentence for both the mother and the baby. An estimated 260,000 women died in 2023 during and right after giving birth, and those numbers will have risen with the loss of United States global aid dollars.There are ways to improve this – better prenatal care is an obvious one. According to the World Health Organization, women giving birth most often die from severe bleeding, infections, or other complications. Pregnant women also die from high blood pressure or from unsafe abortions or complications of miscarriage.If women can get the right medical care during pregnancy, delivery, and after childbirth, the risk of death plummets. But doctors and nurses can be scarce, especially in lower-income countries. Women also often fear going to hospitals or clinics, mistrust them, or simply lack the money to make use of them. A much easier solution is a properly trained midwife. The International Confederation of Midwives supports groups that train and advocate for midwives, who can help ensure safe births.Some countries even have programs to train and license midwives. Professor Doreen Kaura of the University of the Western Cape in Belville, South Africa heads one such program. She also conducts research into the effects of midwifery practice.Not only can well-trained midwives provide high-level medical care for pregnant and delivering women, but they can take into account cultural beliefs and practices that earn trust and ensure that women show up for the lifesaving care they need, Kaura has found. “Respectful care is not optional,” she says.Listen here as she tells One World, One Health about the benefits of midwives and how they can save both lives and money.

Kenya has eliminated human African trypanosomiasis —sleeping sickness — as a public health problem. Dr. Gerardo Priotto from the World Health Organization joins us to explain how Kenya met WHO's rigorous criteria, the science behind the validation, and the partnerships that made this milestone possible. We unpack the challenges of T.b. rhodesiense, the role of surveillance and community action, and what Kenya's success means for the global fight against neglected tropical diseases.

Are you exhausted all the time? In this solo episode, Darin breaks down why so many people feel chronically exhausted despite eating clean, exercising, and "doing everything right." He explains how modern life disrupts mitochondrial function, circadian rhythm, stress signaling, and nutrient availability, and why fatigue is not a personal failure, but a biological signal. This episode offers a grounded, practical roadmap to restoring energy by realigning your environment, habits, and daily rhythms with how the body is actually designed to function.     What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why chronic fatigue is exploding—even among healthy, active people How mitochondria do far more than "make energy" The role of circadian rhythm, light exposure, and timing in energy production Why stress, overtraining, and modern lifestyles drain cellular energy How emotional suppression and unexpressed stress affect vitality The difference between forcing energy and allowing energy Simple daily practices that support mitochondrial repair How breathwork, stillness, and social connection restore resilience Why nutrition alone isn't enough without rhythm and recovery How to realign your biology with the modern world     Timecodes 00:00:00 – Welcome to SuperLife and the intention behind this episode 00:00:32 – Sponsor: TheraSage and natural frequency-based healing 00:02:10 – Happy New Year + why this conversation matters now 00:02:37 – Are you exhausted even though you're "doing everything right"? 00:03:26 – The modern energy crisis and rising chronic fatigue 00:04:12 – Why surface-level health advice no longer works 00:04:27 – Mitochondria: more than energy factories 00:04:59 – Circadian misalignment, EMFs, and modern stressors 00:05:36 – Overtraining, stress load, and lack of recovery 00:06:00 – Fatigue as a signal, not a lack of discipline 00:06:18 – How artificial light disrupts internal clocks 00:07:25 – Discipline as alignment with natural rhythms 00:07:36 – Emotional release, primal expression, and energy recovery 00:08:47 – Why "why am I tired all the time?" is exploding online 00:09:24 – The mitochondria as environmental sensors 00:10:06 – Stress signaling, thoughts, and cellular energy flow 00:11:18 – Breathwork and slowing the nervous system 00:12:24 – Social connection and low-stress signaling 00:13:02 – Sponsor: Bite toothpaste and eliminating plastic exposure 00:15:19 – Morning sunlight and circadian priming 00:15:52 – Reducing artificial light at night 00:16:15 – Nutrients that support mitochondrial function 00:17:29 – Sleep timing, consistency, and repair 00:18:20 – Evening routines and melatonin protection 00:19:46 – Small daily steps compound into real energy 00:20:17 – Antioxidants, inflammation, and recovery 00:20:49 – Training smarter, not harder 00:21:31 – Breathwork, sauna, and recovery rituals 00:22:26 – Nutrition, protein, and polyphenols 00:24:37 – Five daily energy takeaways 00:25:24 – Energy is permitted, not forced 00:26:03 – Listening to the body and closing reflections 00:26:49 – SuperLife Patreon and community support     Join the SuperLife Community Get Darin's deeper wellness breakdowns — beyond social media restrictions: Weekly voice notes Ingredient deep dives Wellness challenges Energy + consciousness tools Community accountability Extended episodes Join for $7.49/month → https://patreon.com/darinolien     Thank You to Our Sponsors: Therasage: Go to www.therasage.com and use code DARIN at checkout for 15% off Bite Toothpaste: Go to trybite.com/DARIN20 or use code DARIN20 for 20% off your first order.     Find More from Darin Olien: Instagram: @darinolien Podcast: SuperLife Podcast Website: superlife.com Book: Fatal Conveniences     Key Takeaway "Fatigue isn't failure.
