In this soft-spoken sleepy bedtime story, I tell you about the History of Astrology: how it appeared as a discipline that was not formally separated from Astronomy across different cultures (Babylon, China, India, Egypt, Greece, the Islamic World, the Maya...), and how it evolved. Western Astrology, with its zodiac signs, birth charts, horoscopes, and individualized predictions, is a tradition that began to form more than 2,000 years ago in the Eastern Mediterranean. Even though critiques of the practice are probably as ancient as Astrology itself (some Roman authors, Muslim scholars, and various religious traditions were vocal about their rejection of it), Astrology survived its separation from Astronomy and even thrived in the West since the 20th Century.     Timestamps 00:00 Mysterious Celestial Bodies 06:17 First Astrological Systems 12:29 Babylonian Astrology 20:30 From Babylon to Greece and Rome 25:47 Antique Critiques 36:36 Chinese Astrology 40:20 Mesoamerica and India 45:43 Medieval Astrology 1:03:22 Modern Resurgence   Welcome to Lights Out Library Join me for a sleepy adventure tonight.

Listen to the full episode here: https://youtu.be/nncEWmQFiSo?si=GanDDq9g0w1qDtE4  There's a common belief that weight loss is simply about "calories in, calories out" - but according to Dr. Jason Fung, this is actually false and misleading information. In this bonus episode of the Habits and Hustle podcast, I talk with the author of The Obesity Code, a renowned expert on obesity and intermittent fasting, who explains that there is much more to gaining or losing weight than just the number of calories consumed. It's not only about the energy in the food, but critically, it's about what your body does with that energy.  We dive into the complex role of hormones and common myths around calories to make a compelling case for why we need to look beyond overly-simplistic "eat less, move more" advice to understand obesity and weight loss. Dr. Jason Fung is a New York Times-bestselling author of many books including The Obesity Code and The Diabetes Code. He completed medical school at the University of Toronto and a fellowship in nephrology at UCLA. He is the co-founder of The Fasting Method, a program to help people lose weight and reverse type 2 diabetes naturally with intermittent fasting. What We Discuss: "Calories in, calories out" overly simplistic Body stores or burns calories based on hormones Different foods have different hormonal effects Insulin drives fat storage; spiked by certain foods Protein: insulin and satiety effects Processed carbs especially fattening Foods' hormonal impacts key, not just calories …and more!

Are you concerned about the rising levels of anxiety and depression in today's youth? In this Habits and Hustle podcast episode, I dive deep into this pressing issue with renowned psychologist and author Dr. Leonard Sax. We discuss the growth of a "culture of disrespect," exacerbated by the pervasive influence of social media, and the importance of conscientious parenting - both loving and strict - to produce the best outcomes. We also dive into issues such as the over-prescription of ADHD medication, the misdiagnosis of normal childhood behaviors as pathological, and the role of permissive parenting in the childhood obesity epidemic.  Dr. Leonard Sax MD PhD is a highly educated and experienced physician, psychologist, and author. He attended MIT and the University of Pennsylvania, earning a PhD in psychology and an MD. Dr. Sax ran a primary care medical practice in Maryland from 1990 to 2008, and since 2001, he has been visiting schools and speaking to parents about child and adolescent development. He has written four books on the subject, including the New York Times bestseller "The Collapse of Parenting," and has spoken in numerous countries and appeared on various media outlets.

Known for defending high-profile and polarizing clients like Alex Jones in the infamous Sandy Hook defamation trials and Fotis Dulos in the shocking disappearance and murder case of Jennifer Dulos, Pattis has earned a reputation as the lawyer who stands by the people society loves to hate. In this episode, we get to the bottom of why he chooses to represent the “villains” of our time. What drives him to take on the cases that most attorneys wouldn’t touch? Is he a defender of justice, a provocateur, or something entirely different? Prepare to be shocked as we uncover the man behind the headlines. His insights on justice, free speech, and public perception may challenge everything you thought you knew. Want to advertise on our show?
