This week we present two classic stories from people who had hypotheses. Part 1: Teaching sixth grade science becomes much more difficult when Xochitl Garcia's students start hypothesizing that fire is alive. Part 2: When journalist John Rennie is assigned to cover an entomological society event where insects are served as food, he sees an opportunity to face his fear of bugs. Xochitl Garcia is the K-12 education program manager at Science Friday, where she focuses on supporting the inspiring efforts of educators (of all types) to engage students in science, engineering, math, and the arts. She is a former NYC school teacher, who specializes in sifting through random piles of junk that she insists are "treasures," to figure out cool ways for learners to explore scientific phenomena. You can find her making a mess in the name of science education at the Science Friday office, her house, with other educators...you get the picture. Update: Xochitl welcomed her baby (not fire) into the world on 1/1/2020. John has worked as a science editor, writer and lecturer for almost 40 years. Most recently, he was a deputy editor at Quanta Magazine. During his time as editor in chief at Scientific American, between 1994 and 2009, the magazine received two National Magazine Awards. He co-created and hosted the 2013 series Hacking the Planet on The Weather Channel. Since 2009, he has been on the faculty of the Science, Health and Environmental Reporting Program in New York University's graduate journalism school.

Ever wonder why your dog just loves to sniff your junk? Well, it turns out it's because other animals perceive the world in wild ways that we're just beginning to understand. So today, we're immersing ourselves in their world, talking about the cutting-edge science of how animals perceive with Pulitzer Prize-winning science writer Ed Yong. He's spinning yarns from his latest book: “An Immense World: How Animal Senses Reveal the Hidden Realms Around Us.” After this journey, you'll look at your dog in a totally different light, you'll appreciate how eyes have literally painted the world — and you might even feel sorry for the humble cockroach.

Why do people cheat when they know it's wrong? Whether it's on a test or in a relationship, the answer may lie in your hormones. This episode begins with surprising research that reveals the powerful role biology plays in dishonest behavior.(https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-3178947/What-makes-cheat-HORMONES-People-high-levels-certain-chemicals-likely-behave-badly.html) Distractions have become a way of life — endless scrolling, constant notifications, and interruptions that destroy our ability to concentrate. Yet the ability to focus is one of the most valuable skills you can have. My guest, Dr. Zelana Montminy, behavioral scientist and author of Finding Focus: Own Your Attention in an Age of Distraction (https://amzn.to/3VNtNOA), shares practical strategies to cut through the noise, reclaim your attention, and unlock the superpower of deep focus. Emotions are a double-edged sword — they can fuel your success or sabotage your best intentions. Learning to regulate them is the key. Marc Brackett, founding director of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence and professor at Yale's Child Study Center, explains how to harness emotions in a way that benefits your work, relationships, and well-being. He's the author of Dealing with Feeling: Use Your Emotions to Create the Life You Want (https://amzn.to/3VGJreH). And finally, here's something truly strange: researchers have discovered that simply looking at a disgusting image can predict your political leanings with remarkable accuracy. In this closing segment, I reveal how it works. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2014/10/141029124502.htm Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Robots are just about everywhere these days: circling the grocery store, cleaning the floor at the airport, making deliveries. Not to mention the robots on the assembly lines in factories. But how far are we from having a human-like robot at home? For example, a robot housekeeper like Rosie from “The Jetsons.” She didn't just cook and clean, she bantered and bonded with the Jetsons. Stanford roboticist Karen Liu joined Host Ira Flatow to talk about how AI is driving advances in humanoid robotics at a live show at the Fox Theatre in Redwood City, California.Guest: Dr. Karen Liu is a professor of computer science at Stanford University.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

Learn why uncertainty fuels anxiety and how noticing our body's stress signals can help us find calm.Summary: One in five adults in the U.S. report living with anxiety, and many of us struggle to control or avoid the feelings that come with it. Science shows that tuning into the body, rather than resisting discomfort, can actually reduce anxiety and strengthen resilience. Join us on The Science of Happiness as we explore what anxiety teaches us about control, uncertainty, and how to care for ourselves with more compassion.How To Do This Practice: Create a quiet moment for yourself: Find a space where you won't be interrupted—even just for 30 seconds. Close the door, silence your phone, and step away from distractions. Take a deep breath in: Begin with one slow, steady inhale. On the exhale, let your body soften. Keep your breathing gentle, not forced. Do a quick scan: Where are you holding stress? Maybe in your chest, shoulders, or jaw. Simply notice the tightness or pressure without trying to change it. Breathe into those sensations: With each inhale, imagine sending your breath to the place where stress lives in your body. With each exhale, release a little of that tension—like letting it flow out. Name what's on your mind: Ask yourself: What am I feeling? Am I anxious about the past, worried about the future, or caught up in uncertainty? You don't need to solve or fix anything—just acknowledge it. Let it go, even briefly: Tell yourself, I don't have to fix this right now. Allow the stress to soften as you exhale. Even 20–30 seconds can bring a sense of calm and clarity. Scroll down for a transcription of this episode.Today's Guests: JENNY LITTLE is a Health and Fitness Director at the Albany YMCA.DR.

Before the high-tech gadgets used to track bird migration today, there was moon-watching: a technique dreamed up in the 1940s by ornithologist George Lowery. Using telescopes pointed at the moon to see the silhouettes of migratory birds, Lowery helped show that birds regularly migrate across the Gulf of Mexico and organized the first continent-wide survey of migration in North America.

There's a hidden system in your body that most doctors overlook, yet it impacts your pain, your performance, and even your emotional well-being. In this episode of HEAL with Kelly, I sit down with Ashley Black - visionary inventor, fascia expert, and creator of the world-renowned FasciaBlaster® tools for a fascinating conversation that will completely change the way you see your body. Ashley shares her powerful journey of healing herself after a near-fatal illness that left her partially crippled, and how that experience led her to uncover fascia's true role in health and longevity. Together, we explore what fascia really is (and why it's not just “muscle”), how unresolved trauma and toxins can literally get trapped in our tissues, and why daily fascia care can boost muscle output, reduce inflammation, and even support long-term vitality. This conversation bridges science and spirit, East and West, cutting-edge research and ancient wisdom from fascia remodeling, trauma release, sacred geometry, and the healing power of community. Ashley Black isn't just teaching fascia, she's redefining how we understand the body, trauma, and human potential. And now, she's taking it even further with the upcoming launch of her revolutionary new product, NeXcia, designed to bring fascia care into the next era of health and healing.

In high school, Carla Brodley was almost shut out of computer science when boys took over all the computers. But she rediscovered her love for the field in college and has made it her mission to open doors for others. At Northeastern University, she founded the Center for Inclusive Computing, which now partners with more than 100 institutions to make computer science more accessible. As a result of Brodley's push to introduce more flexible degree programs, more women — and especially more women of color — have not only enrolled but stayed in the field. Now, with support from Pivotal, a group of organizations founded by Melinda French Gates, Brodley is aiming to scale up her efforts. Today she joins Lost Women of Science host Katie Hafner to share her journey, new paths to computer science, and how AI fits in. Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

The Rising Risks of Cancel Culture & The Psychology & Language That Built It! In this explosive episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Steven Pinker (renowned Harvard psychologist and author of When Everyone Knows That Everyone Knows) joins Mayim Bialik and Jonathan Cohen for a no-holds-barred conversation that quickly turns into a fiery debate on the limits of science, belief, and human consciousness. From the hidden mechanics of social dynamics and language to the perils of thought policing and cancel culture, Dr. Pinker dives deep into how shared knowledge shapes society, why what people think others believe can shift power, and how social media became a modern-day coliseum for public shaming. But the sparks really fly when Mayim and Jonathan challenge Pinker's staunchly materialist worldview — questioning whether extrasensory perception (ESP), near death experiences (NDEs), and higher consciousness might point to something beyond the reach of scientific instruments. Pinker doesn't hold back, offering his sharply skeptical takes on mystical claims and pushing back against spiritual notions with cool-headed logic. Dr. Pinker also breaks down: - Why what others think of us actually matters - Dangers of being too direct or too indirect — especially for neurodivergent folks - How to create or hide common knowledge in relationships - The first case of cancel culture on social media (and its ancient roots!) - The thin line between freedom of speech and incitement to violence - How distrust in science fuels conspiracy theories - Can we depoliticize science? Or is it already too late? - The danger of defunding academic research - Why authoritarian regimes fear open communication - The healthcare system: overprescription, profit motives, and how to fix it - Is free will real? Or are we just dancing to the tune of biology and environment? Don't miss MBB's first-ever toe-to-toe spiritual showdown between Mayim, Jonathan, and a die-hard materialist. Whether you lean scientific, spiritual, or somewhere in between, this conversation will challenge what you think you know about reality.

In today's episode, Gina discusses the awesome power of a shift in perspective when dealing with intrusive thoughts. It is imperative that individuals suffering with anxiety and intrusive thoughts learn to let go of the thoughts and understand that they are not these disturbing thoughts. Strong revulsion from the thoughts creates strong attachments to the thoughts and causes them to recur over time. Learn how to avoid this in this episode!

Who am I then? The one who sees that. -Eckhart TolleChapters0:26 Introduction to Intrusive Thoughts1:58 The Connection Between Rumination and Intrusive Thoughts3:35 Science of Intrusive Thoughts9:29 Embracing the Uninvited10:48 The Power of Acceptance13:13 The Role of Self-Compassion15:28 Transforming Your Relationship with Thoughts17:10 Practicing Mindfulness and Acceptance18:15 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsSummaryIn this episode, I delve into the topic of intrusive thoughts, a subject that has been met with many questions and misunderstandings. I explore the very nature of these unwanted thoughts that can make us feel as though our minds have turned against us, trapping us in an overwhelming cycle that seems relentless and distressing. I invite listeners to consider the possibility that intrusive thoughts do not define us, and that they can lose their power when we change our perspective on them.I discuss how the natural response to intrusive thoughts is often to push them away or suppress them, a method that ultimately leads to an even stronger rebound effect. Through the lens of neuroscience, I explain how the brain's default mode network can create loops of self-focused thinking that keep us stuck in rumination. Many of us experience a cycle of negative thinking that not only intensifies our distress but also reinforces the persistence of these intrusive thoughts. I emphasize that becoming aware of this cycle can provide us with the hope we need to navigate these tumultuous moments.Drawing on insights from Eckhart Tolle, I illustrate the importance of understanding that we are not our thoughts. Instead, we are the observers of them, which can be a liberating realization. By accepting our intrusive thoughts without judgment, we allow them to exist as transient blips in our mind rather than as representatives of our character. I explain that emotional tagging by the amygdala can make these thoughts feel sticky, yet we can learn to embrace the uninvited rather than resist them.#anxietycoachespodcast #intrusivethoughts #anxiety #mentalhealth #mindfulness #selfcompassion #braintraining #rumination #innerpeace #lettinggo #stressrelief #emotionalregulation #neuroscience #eckharttolle #cognitivebehavioraltherapy #radicalacceptance #meditation #copingskills #rewireyourbrain #mindovermatter #anxietyrecovery #overthinking #intrusive #unwantedthoughts #calmyourmind #anxietyhelp #breathe #letitgo #thoughtwork #becominganobserver #ACP #GinaRyanSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Corvids, like crows and jays, are known for caching seeds instead of eating them immediately. Sometimes, those seeds take root before the birds return. Mario Pesendorfer, a forest and behavioral ecologist at BOKU in Vienna, says that's what happened on Santa Cruz Island in southern California. It's part of Channel Islands National Park where native shrub oak habitats were largely decimated by grazing livestock. After these animals were removed in the 80s and 90s, Santa Cruz Island regained vegetation faster than its neighbors — thanks to seed-dispersing Island Scrub-Jays! It's just one example of how birds could help restoration ecologists regrow forests around the world.

Some of society's greatest scientific achievements were made based on research that might sound silly or bizarre to the average person. But curiosity-driven exploration is just as important to science as research that starts out with clear-cut applications in mind. So, this episode, host Dr. Samantha Yammine is joined by Dr. Carly Anne York. Dr. York wrote The Salmon Cannon and the Levitating Frog: And Other Serious Discoveries of Silly Science and they talk about how crucial curiosity is when it comes to learning about the world around us. Then, speaking of silly science, Sam and the production team dig into some of the winners of this year's Ig Nobel Prize. After that, Sam explores a study that proves the communication between moths and tomato plants.

You might think the best way to make decisions is to know all the facts. But psychologists' research suggests that getting the “gist” – the core meaning behind the facts – is more important than focusing on every last detail. Valerie Reyna, PhD, talks about why gist matters; how it explains why teens make so many risky decisions; how understanding gist can help doctors communicate better with their patients; and why AI systems may be moving toward more gist-based reasoning.

Dr. Nicole Saphier, Board Certified Medical Doctor, Senior Fox News Medical Contributor, and bestselling author of Panic Attack: Playing Politics with Science in the Fight Against COVID-19, joined The Guy Benson Show today to discuss President Trump's announcement, alongside RFK Jr, linking pregnant Tylenol use to increased autism risk. Saphier critiqued the event's delivery, calling the messaging "messy" and saying she hopes for more clarity from the Trump administration moving forward. She explained that there isn't enough research to definitively make this tie, stressing that pregnant women shouldn't stop taking Tylenol altogether but should limit use and consult their doctors. Saphier said the increased conversation is positive, though, as the ultimate goal is to keep pregnant women as healthy as possible to avoid illness. Listen to the full interview below.

This is a preview of a premium episode on Design Better. To listen to the whole episode, head to our Substack: https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/keith-sawyer The key to creativity isn't about having brilliant ideas in isolation, but about cultivating our ability to observe the world around us, and make the intuitive leaps that connect disparate ideas. Keith Sawyer, a creativity researcher who spent over a decade interviewing hundreds of art and design professors and students to understand how creative professionals learn to see—and think—differently, writes about this in his new book, Learning to See. Keith brings a unique perspective to creativity research. A jazz pianist turned MIT computer science graduate, he designed video games in the early 1980s before pivoting to study the science of creativity under the legendary Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi at the University of Chicago. His latest book challenges common myths about the creative process and reveals why the most successful artists and designers don't start with a vision—they discover it through an iterative dialogue with their work. In our conversation, Keith shares insights from his research on improvisational creativity, explains why ambiguity is essential to the creative process, and discusses how AI is reshaping—but not replacing—human creativity. Bio Dr. Keith Sawyer is the Morgan Distinguished Professor in Educational Innovations at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Dr. Sawyer is one of the world's leading creativity researchers. He's studied jazz ensembles, Chicago improv theater, children's play, and creative classrooms. He's published 20 books, including Group Genius: The Creative Power of Collaboration and Zig Zag: The Surprising Path to Greater Creativity.

In this episode of SpaceTime, we celebrate a major milestone in exoplanet discoveries, unravel the enigmatic surface of Venus, and delve into the intriguing tale of interstellar comet 3I ATLAS.Exoplanet Count Surpasses 6,000Astronomers have reached an impressive milestone, confirming their 6,000th exoplanet, a testament to the rapid pace of discoveries since the first detection of an exoplanet in 1995. This milestone not only highlights the evolving understanding of our galaxy but also raises questions about the myriad of planetary types discovered, from rocky planets to gas giants. While the hunt for Earth-like planets continues, the methods employed to discover these distant worlds remain a challenge, with fewer than 100 exoplanets directly imaged to date. The future holds promise with upcoming missions, including NASA's Nancy Chris Roman Space Telescope, which aims to further uncover the secrets of our cosmic neighbourhood.Decoding Venus's Mysterious SurfaceScientists are making strides in understanding the peculiar features of Venus, particularly the crown-like structures known as coronae. A new study suggests these features may be the result of magma plumes attempting to break through the planet's crust. By mapping the paths of these magmatic bursts, researchers are shedding light on Venus's geological history and its stark contrast to Earth, despite their similarities in size and formation. The findings could help explain why Venus has become a hellish environment, devoid of life, while Earth thrives.Interstellar Comet 3I ATLASAstronomers have captured stunning new images of interstellar comet 3I ATLAS, revealing a prominent tail and glowing coma as it journeys through the inner solar system. These observations provide valuable insights into the comet's composition and behaviour, suggesting that it shares similarities with comets originating from our own solar system. As 3I ATLAS approaches the Sun, its increasing activity offers a unique opportunity for scientists to study material that formed around distant stars. The comet is expected to re-emerge in November, promising further observations and discoveries.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesNASA Exoplanet Science Institutehttps://exoplanets.nasa.gov/Proceedings of the National Academy of Scienceshttps://www.pnas.org/Gemini Observatoryhttps://www.gemini.edu/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.Exoplanet Count Surpasses 6,000Decoding Venus's Mysterious SurfaceInterstellar Comet 3I ATLAS
Guest: Rep. Eric Sorensen, IL-17When severe weather strikes, the National Weather Service is on the front lines saving lives, but what happens when those front lines are short-staffed as storms get stronger? As a former broadcast meteorologist turned Congressman, Representative Eric Sorensen knows firsthand how critical timely, accurate forecasts are for every community. That's why he's helping lead a bipartisan push in Congress to fully staff the National Weather Service, reclassify meteorologists as critical to public safety, and ensure that rural and underserved communities aren't left behind when minutes matter most. Today on Weather Geeks, we're talking with Rep. Sorensen about why a fully staffed and supported NWS is essential for our country's safety, and how weather policy can—and should—transcend politics in the face of a changing climate. Let's get into it…Chapters00:00 The Importance of a Fully Staffed National Weather Service03:08 Congressman Eric Sorensen's Journey and Achievements06:07 Flood Mitigation and Climate Change Challenges08:53 Bipartisan Efforts for Weather Workforce Improvement11:53 The Role of Meteorologists in Public Safety15:10 Addressing Staffing Shortages in the National Weather Service17:56 Proposals for Weather Safety and Research20:51 The Need for an NTSB for Weather23:54 The Future of Weather Forecasting and Public SafetySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Most people's activities are impelled by the force of karma. We are forced to take birth, and what is the other end of that? If we're forced to take birth, then what comes after that? (Sorry to bring it up, I know it's a family show). We also are forced to die, and we don't know when. But Krishna appears by his own sweet will. This is one of the main truths of Janmashtami to understand. Why is it important? 'Janma karma ca me divyam evaṁ yo vetti tattvataḥ.' Now here comes the most important part. Are you ready for the most important part of the verse? 'Tyaktvā dehaṁ punar janma naiti mām eti so 'rjuna.' Krishna says, "If you're able to understand this science of God, that God's not an ordinary person. He enters the world, not like us by force. He leaves the world, not by force like us, but that his activities are divyam, transcendental." He says, "tyaktvā deham." Deham means this body. We all have a body, right? And tyaktvā means "at some point we have to give it up." 'Tyaktvā dehaṁ punar janma naiti.' That means when you leave this body, if you become fully cognizant of God and your relationship with God in this lifetime, you have come to the perfection of human life, and therefore you don't have to take birth again. Because this universe is a classroom. It's for all of us to refine ourselves. And what is the ultimate refinement? It is to reawaken our relationship with Bhagavan. Every single living entity has an eternal relationship with God, and when we are estranged from that relationship, then we feel fear because we think that we are independent or separated. We struggle here in this world to understand our nature, and we have existential angst about our own existence, and we are threatened by non-existence. But when we understand that we are co-eternal with the supreme, Krishna exists eternally. And just like the sun has its sun rays, we are part and parcel of Kṛṣṇa. He says in the Bhagavad Gita, "Mamaivāṁśo jīva-loke jīva-bhūtaḥ sanātanaḥ manaḥ-ṣaṣṭhānīndriyāṇi prakṛti-sthāni karṣati"—that every living being is a spark of God, of God's energy. God is like the sun, and we're like the sun rays. Simultaneously one, but different from the Supreme. He is supremely independent and all-powerful, and we're minutely independent and we are not all-powerful. I'm glad somebody regularly reminds me of that. So Krishna says (BG 4.9), janma karma ca me divyam evaṁ yo vetti tattvataḥ tyaktvā dehaṁ punar janma naiti mām eti so 'rjuna Okay, who's Kṛṣṇa speaking to in the Bhagavad Gita? (Audience: Arjuna) He says, "Dear Arjuna, if anyone can understand the truth of my appearance in the world and my activities, it's not ordinary, it's divyam. Then they don't have to take birth again here in this material world." So Janmashtami is a celebration of this event, but it's not an yearly event. It's an event that is happening at every moment, if that even makes logical sense. The fact is that Krishna is within the heart of all of us, and he is guiding our movements, giving us intelligence. In the Bhagavad Gita, 15th Chapter (BG 15.15), Kṛṣṇa says, sarvasya cāhaṁ hṛdi sanniviṣṭo mattaḥ smṛtir jñānam apohanaṁ ca vedaiś ca sarvair aham eva vedyo vedānta-kṛd veda-vid eva cāham I'm in the heart of every living being, giving knowledge, remembrance and even forgetfulness and so on. So on Janamashtmi we can remember that Krishna is in our heart. He's in the heart of every living being. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------
The debate between evolution and creation is fundamentally a clash of worldviews rather than purely science versus religion. Evidence from geology, linguistics, and religion all align better with the Bible's account, including a younger earth, complex ancient languages, and early belief in a single Creator God. These examples demonstrate that the Bible provides a more coherent explanation of history and origins. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1232/29
