#92 Humans on Mars Will Become a NEW Species - Mars Biologist Dr Scott Solomon
<p>Please double check you're subscribed, thank you❤️ </p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p><strong>Mars Biologist Dr Scott Solomon Reveals Why A Child Born On Mars May Never Come Home To Earth, How We've Already Created Alien Life In Space, And The One Thing That Decides If We Survive On Mars That No One Is Funding.</strong></p><p></p><p>Please double check you're subscribed, thank you❤️</p><p></p><p>Mars biologist Dr Scott Solomon has spent over a decade studying what will physically happen to the first humans who leave Earth, and he says we're rushing toward Mars while ignoring the questions that matter most. He reveals why a child raised in one-third gravity may have a skeleton that Earth's gravity would crush if they ever returned, why bacteria found on the International Space Station are no longer known to exist on Earth, and why human reproduction, the single biggest obstacle to colonising Mars, is the one thing almost no one will fund.</p><p></p><p>Dr Scott Solomon is an evolutionary biologist at Rice University, a Smithsonian Research Associate, and the author of 'Becoming Martian: How Living in Space Will Change Our Bodies and Minds'. His work explores human evolution and where our species is heading next.</p><p></p><p>In this conversation, Scott and Jacob discuss:</p><ul><li>Why a child born on Mars may never be able to survive a trip back to Earth</li><li>How bacteria on the Space Station may already have evolved into the first 'aliens'</li><li>Why a Mars-born immune system could be killed by Earth's everyday germs</li><li>How Mars radiation could accelerate human evolution into a new species</li><li>Why NASA won't fund the research that decides if we can colonise Mars</li></ul><p></p><p>00:00 Introduction to Space Exploration and Public Awareness</p><p>03:05 The Journey from Ants to Mars: Scott's Evolutionary Insights</p><p>06:00 Microbial Life: The Unseen Companions of Space Travel</p><p>09:10 The Challenges of Martian Immunity and Health</p><p>11:50 Physical Compromises of Living on Mars</p><p>14:50 The Future of Human Reproduction in Space</p><p>28:56 The Overlooked Challenge of Reproduction on Mars</p><p>31:28 Research and Ethical Considerations in Space Reproduction</p><p>35:09 The Role of Microbes and Artificial Gravity</p><p>37:04 Radiation Risks and Natural Selection on Mars</p><p>43:39 Speculative Evolution: Adaptations for Martian Life</p><p>48:24 Defining Species: The Future of Martian Humans</p><p>52:56 Sovereignty and Identity: The Martian State</p><p>55:36 Timelines for Mars Colonization and Ethical Concerns</p><p></p><p>You can purchase Scott's book, 'Becoming Martian: How Living in Space Will Change Our Bodies and Minds', here: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Becoming-Martian-Future-Beyond-Earth/dp/0262051516">https://www.amazon.co.uk/Becoming-Martian-Future-Beyond-Earth/dp/0262051516</a></p><p></p><p>Follow Scott: Website – <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://solomon.rice.edu">https://solomon.rice.edu</a></p><p></p><p>Follow Jacob: YouTube – <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/@watsonhowland">https://www.youtube.com/@watsonhowland</a> Website – <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.jacobwatsonhowland.com">https://www.jacobwatsonhowland.com</a> Spotify – <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://open.spotify.com/show/0r4v5xgyYz0rTFSLklk0Em">https://open.spotify.com/show/0r4v5xgyYz0rTFSLklk0Em</a> Apple Podcasts – <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/watson-howland/id1813625992">https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/watson-howland/id1813625992</a></p>

#91 im unemployed but God has made me rich
<p>This one's just me, no guest, working through where my faith actually is right now. I've just finished university, I'm unemployed, a couple thousand pounds into my overdraft, and I quit my weekend job cleaning toilets, and somehow I've never felt richer. That's where I start: why real wealth has nothing to do with what's in your bank account, and how the Sermon on the Mount pulled years of anxiety off me.</p><p></p><p>I get honest about the stuff I'm still bad at. How I won £500 at a Dragons' Den-style pitch and felt nothing but bitter I didn't win more. How I once said no to lending someone a couple of peppers because I wanted them for my own dinner, and only realised hours later how selfish that was. How I spent years chasing followers, awards and recognition, convinced money would make me free, while feeling miserable every single day. Then a friend named Ben handed me a Bible, I started reading it every morning, and everything quietly changed, including a grant that now lets me do this full time.</p><p></p><p>The second half gets more uncomfortable. I talk about being judged and hated for your faith and why that's actually a sign you're on the right path, the gap between what I claim to believe and how I actually behave, and what the Book of James and the story of Abraham and Isaac taught me: faith you only talk about is dead, and the real proof is what you do. My hope is simple, that this pushes you to open the Bible yourself, even when it's hard, especially when it's hard.</p><p></p><p><strong>Takeaways</strong></p><ul><li>I'm unemployed and in debt, but God has made me rich.</li><li>Giving the moment someone asks is harder than it looks.</li><li>My actions matter more than my words.</li><li>I'm more blessed than I ever realised.</li><li>Everything except my connection with God is a bonus.</li><li>I finally saw that God was behind all of it, even through my parents.</li><li>I can't serve both God and money.</li><li>When I judge others, I'm really judging myself.</li><li>I'm rich in the Holy Spirit.</li><li>I believe God has a plan for me, and for you.</li><li>Forgiveness isn't optional, and judging others is a sin.</li><li>I should expect to be judged and hated for doing good.</li><li>The people persecuted for their faith are the blessed ones.</li><li>Faith without action means nothing.</li><li>My actions have to match what I claim to believe.</li><li>Trusting God sometimes costs me something.</li><li>God tests my faith to make it stronger, He doesn't torment me.</li><li>I have to obey even when I don't understand.</li><li>Real faith shows up in what I do.</li><li>Reading the Bible every morning is what keeps me growing.</li></ul>

#90 WW2 Expert: AI Is ARMING Holocaust Deniers - Paul Woodadge (Round 2)
<p></p><p>D-Day historian Paul Woodadge reveals what really happened on the only British soil the Nazis ever occupied, why the "good German" war heroes were a myth invented after the war, and how AI is now flooding our feeds with fake Holocaust and D-Day stories that are arming deniers.</p><p></p><p>Paul Woodadge is a battlefield historian and guide who has spent over 15 years walking the ground in Normandy, following 20 years as a WWII reenactor. He runs the WWII TV channel, where he interviews leading historians and is currently researching a new book on the Battle of La Haye-du-Puits.</p><p></p><p>He explains: ■ Why the Nazis occupied the Channel Islands for almost the entire war, and the truth about the camp on Alderney ■ Why Hitler poured 1/8 of the entire Atlantic Wall's concrete into islands of no strategic value ■ How islanders first learned about D-Day through German propaganda that claimed the Allies were being driven into the sea ■ Why the men who tried to assassinate Hitler were not the heroes history made them ■ How AI fakes are now being used to deny the Holocaust ever happened, and why the "Churchill was worse than Hitler" narrative is dangerous nonsense</p><p></p><p>Paul Woodadge’s Work</p><p></p><p>Website: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.ddayhistorian.com">https://www.ddayhistorian.com</a></p><p></p><p>X: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/WW2TV">https://x.com/WW2TV</a></p><p></p><p>YouTube: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/@WW2TV/videos">https://www.youtube.com/@WW2TV/videos</a></p><p></p><p>Follow Jacob: YouTube – <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/@watsonhowland">https://www.youtube.com/@watsonhowland</a> Website – <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.jacobwatsonhowland.com">https://www.jacobwatsonhowland.com</a> Spotify – <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://open.spotify.com/show/0r4v5xgyYz0rTFSLklk0Em">https://open.spotify.com/show/0r4v5xgyYz0rTFSLklk0Em</a> Apple Podcasts – <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/watson-howland/id1813625992">https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/watson-howland/id1813625992</a></p>
