Exciting news - pre-order my debut book https://linktr.ee/HealthySBTH?utm_source=linktree_profile_shareThis week on Live Well Be Well, I'm joined by the extraordinary Dr. Nighat Arif, NHS GP, women's health advocate, author of The Knowledge and the brand new The Family Health Bible, and one of the most courageous voices in medicine today. Dr. Nighat has spent nearly two decades in the NHS holding space for the women the system has failed and she's built an online community of millions by doing exactly what she does in her surgery: speaking honestly, clearly, and without shame about the things nobody else will say.Here's What We Dive Into:- How a dare from Dr. Nighat's sister during lockdown sparked a global conversation about vaginal dryness and why she chose to begin it in Punjabi.- Why perimenopause can begin as early as 38 to 40, and what the research says about Black and Asian women going through this transition two to five years earlier than average.- How medical gaslighting and medical misogyny show up in real consultations including Dr. Nighat's own experiences of being dismissed as a patient, both for PCOS and for lichen sclerosis.- Why Dr. Nighat now recommends that women start moisturising their vulva and vagina from the age of 20, and which ingredients to avoid.- How the vaginal ring works, why it's barely spoken about, and why the seven-day pill break has more to do with the Pope than with medicine.- Why Trump's defunding of women's health research and the framing of female bodies as a "business opportunity" is one of the most urgent issues facing medicine right now.Love,Sarah Ann
Macro trends blogger and economist David Woo, CEO of David Woo Unbound and co-author of the upcoming financial thriller Merry Go Round Broke Down, returns to the show to break down the geopolitical and market implications of the US-Iran conflict. Woo argues that markets are dangerously mispricing the situation, betting either on a quick Trump "TACO" or a rapid US victory — both of which he sees as unlikely. With the Strait of Hormuz effectively closed, oil sitting near $100 a barrel, and Iran executing a measured, strategic response, Woo believes this conflict is far more protracted than Wall Street is pricing. He explains why Trump, now effectively a lame duck after the Supreme Court's tariff ruling, is unlikely to back down given the enormous legacy stakes, and why China's deep investment in Iran makes this the first real US-China proxy war. Woo also breaks down the winners and losers globally, shares his current positioning — short stocks, long oil — and warns that an interaction between rising oil prices, the AI bubble, and private credit stress could be the perfect storm markets aren't prepared for.Links: Book: https://www.amazon.com/Merry-Go-Round-Broke-Down-Novel-Globalization/dp/B0GCX8Y6KTYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DavidWooUnbound Website: https://www.davidwoounbound.com/ Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/Davidwoounbound00:00 Introduction00:43 Setting the geopolitical stage01:16 Why markets are dangerously complacent03:34 Why Trump won't TACO this time05:50 Trump's legacy shift — why Iran, why now07:48 Iran's military capabilities — what the US hasn't destroyed10:14 Oil at $95 — what's actually priced in12:47 The Strait of Hormuz and what markets are missing15:11 Can the Fed cut rates at $100 oil?16:00 Retail investors driving the market higher17:56 Global recession risk19:57 Winners and losers — Canada, Russia, Europe, Japan20:27 Why the midterms are almost irrelevant now24:41 Base case — Trump loses the House26:00 Why Trump is moving on Iran before lame duck sets in28:09 Regime change and the greatest presidential legacy29:55 China-Iran railroad and the real proxy war31:24 Can the US control the Strait of Hormuz?33:00 The Houthis playbook 35:15 UAE under attack — interceptors running out37:04 Iran's civilization and strategic depth39:12 David's positions — short stocks, long oil40:42 When will markets wake up?43:21 Most likely outcome — civil war not regime change45:11 What Xi Jinping is thinking right now47:03 Is this worth the risk for the US?49:43 The Pearl Harbor analogy and China's Belt and Road52:39 Gold, crowded trades getting blown out55:38 Private credit, the AI bubble and the perfect storm58:44 What's keeping David up at night — AI01:03:07 David's book — Merry Go Round Broke Down

Banks Panic as Kraken Hits the Fed | Trump Was Right Banks may be starting to panic as cryptocurrency moves closer than ever to the core of the U.S. financial system. Kraken has taken a historic step toward direct interaction with Federal Reserve infrastructure, marking a potential turning point in the relationship between crypto companies and traditional banks. For years, the banking establishment argued that crypto would never be integrated into the financial system. But today, digital asset firms are gaining access to the same financial rails that banks have long controlled. Is this the beginning of a new financial era? In this episode of On The Chain, Jeff and Chip break down: • Why banks are suddenly nervous about crypto • What Kraken interacting with the Fed could mean for the financial system • How digital assets are reshaping global finance • Why Trump's warnings about the banking system are being revisited Crypto, banking, and politics are colliding in a way we haven't seen before — and the consequences could reshape the global financial system.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit zeteo.comAs one of the co-hosts of the massively popular podcast ‘I've Had It', Jennifer Welch has made a name for herself as a sharp-witted, foul-mouthed, uncomfortable-truth-bomb-dropping political commentator. Whether you've seen social media clips of her ranting about Donald Trump's poorly applied makeup or watched her eviscerate Sen. Cory Booker on AIPAC during their viral interview, Jennifer is shaking up the way liberal media thinks about political punditry. Now, she joins Mehdi on ‘We're Not Kidding' to talk about her political journey and rise to fame. Once an “MSNBC liberal” from the Bible Belt, Mehdi and Jennifer discuss her evolution on issues like corporate influence on the Democratic party and Israel-Palestine. They also get into the recent dump of Epstein files, including Elon Musk's “pathetic” attempt to get an invite to Epstein's island on Christmas, and how Joe Biden and the Democrats once again fumbled the ball. “Merrick Garland had these files for four f*****g years and didn't do anything with it!” Jennifer says.The two also discuss:- How atheism influences Jennifer's politics (and religion influences Mehdi's!).- Why Trump appeals to evangelical Christians.- Scott Jennings, Jesse Watters, and why Republican men are “submissive.”- Whether Epstein was a Mossad spy.- Which national Democrats should be “remodeled” and which should “retire.”Subscribe to Zeteo to support independent and unfiltered journalism: https://zeteo.com/subscribeWatch, listen and subscribe to ‘We're Not Kidding' on Substack: https://zeteo.com/s/were-not-kidding-with-mehdi-and-friendsFind Zeteo:Twitter: https://twitter.com/zeteo_newsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/zeteonewsTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@zeteonewsFind Mehdi:Substack: https://substack.com/@mehdirhasanTwitter: https://twitter.com/@mehdirhasanInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/@mehdirhasanTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mehdirhasanFind Jennifer:‘I've Had It': https://ivehaditpodcast.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mizzwelch/?hl=enCredits:Hosted by: Mehdi HasanGuest Host: Jennifer WelchExecutive Producer: Kiran AlviSenior Producer and Editor: Frank CappelloMusic: Andy ClausenDesign: Alicia TatoneMix Engineer: Valentino RiveraTitle Animation: Ehsaan Mesghali

The capture of Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro by the United States feels like confirmation that we are in a new era of global politics, but what has caused this shift and where does it leave Europe? Amol speaks to Professor Helen Thompson, an expert on the history of globalisation and author of Disorder: Hard Times in the 21st Century, about how oil is fuelling competition between the US and China. They explore how it's reshaping global power politics, whether it's possible for Europe to decouple from the US and why high levels of national debt threaten to undermine Western economies. And Helen, who is Professor of Political Economy at the University of Cambridge, explains why she thinks there is a case for potentially reversing the independence of central banks like the US Federal Reserve and the Bank of England to give politicians more control.

Once again, Iranians have taken to the streets. Starting in late December, the plummeting value of the national currency, along with the soaring cost of living, were the catalyst for a fresh wave of protest – and one that soon turned political. Although the government has been quick to crack down on the demonstrations, the regime has been dealt some heavy blows in the past year, and analysts are pondering whether this could be the movement that ends the ayatollahs’ reign for good. Haaretz reporter Linda Dayan was joined by Arash Azizi, lecturer at Yale University and author of "What Iranians Want: Women, Life, Freedom" and "The Shadow Commander: Soleimani, the U.S., and Iran's Global Ambitions” to talk about these protests, and what they mean for Iran, for Israel, for the region and for the world. “In some of the previous protests, there was always a mix of hope and anger,” explains Azizi. “This time, there’s a lot more anger, because people know that they want an end to this regime, but they can’t find an easy path… there’s a lot more despondency and desperation.” Azizi explains that one of the key obstacles in realizing this aspiration is Iran’s fractured would-be opposition, including the ousted Shah’s son Reza Pahlavi, who’s found support from some Israeli lawmakers. The protesters “don’t have a disciplined political leadership that you need to bring about that kind of change,” Azizi says. Iran’s developments will likely “have the color of a coup, perhaps even more than a revolution” – and be led by figures currently inside the regime. U.S. President Donald Trump has also warned the Iranian regime against violently repressing the protests. The ouster of Nicolas Maduro in Venezuela – a key Iranian ally – by U.S. forces “was a reminder to the Iranians that Trump is not bluffing, and that he could take action against them,” notes Azizi. “The idea that Trump would assassinate Khamenei, let’s say, with the help of Israel would have been unthinkable a few years ago… now, it’s really a possibility.” Read more: At Least 35 Killed, 1,200 Detained in Iran Protests as Threat of U.S. Intervention Looms Analysis by Zvi Bar'el | Why Trump's Venezuela Playbook Won't Work in Iran Israeli Officials Warn Iran May Strike Across the Middle East to Quell Protests Analysis by Ben Samuels | What Trump's Attack on Venezuela Means for Iran and MAGA Isolationists The Israeli Influence Operation Aiming to Install Reza Pahlavi as Shah of IranSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When did we truly become Americans — and what did the Founders actually believe about defending our nation? In this powerful episode, Tara dismantles the myth that America was ever meant to be isolationist. From the ratification of the Bill of Rights in 1791, to the Monroe Doctrine just 30 years later, Tara walks through the history the political class hopes you've forgotten — and why it matters right now. This episode connects early American strategy to modern threats: China's control of rare earth minerals, infiltration through student visas, agricultural warfare, and the global pressure campaign unfolding across our hemisphere. This isn't Iraq. This isn't Afghanistan. This is something very different — and very real. History didn't change.

What is next for Maduro and Venezuela? Why Trump and Rubio attacked? How the average American reacts. Analysis at Parapolitika Radio
In a fiery breakdown, Tara explains why President Trump's 18-minute speech mattered more than most Americans realize — and why his administration's biggest problem isn't policy, but messaging
For the first time in weeks, Trump sounded like Trump again — and Tara breaks down why this speech mattered. What was billed as an economic address quickly became something much bigger: a clear, forceful explanation of how inflation, housing costs, wages, and illegal immigration are all tied together. From exploding rents and crushed wages to welfare incentives and job displacement, this episode explains how we got here, who paid the price, and why Trump says this is America's last chance to fix it.
Tara breaks down Trump's bold move to block Venezuelan and Iranian oil tankers, exposing a tangled web of global oil trade, sanctions, and political funding. From Democrat-backed street protests to Iran's assassination attempts on Trump allies, this episode explains the real reasons behind Trump's actions — and why they matter for American national security and economic sovereignty.
Bombshell FBI emails expose doubts about the Mar-a-Lago raid, while shockwaves ripple through the conservative movement over Trump's oil tanker blockade, mass federal layoffs, and a devastating betrayal from inside his own White House. Tara connects the dots between weaponized justice, real national security threats, and why Susie Wiles' Vanity Fair interview may have done more damage than Democrats ever could.

The Donald Trump administration revealed the US empire's new plan for global dominance in the 2025 National Security Strategy.
