Now that the Winter Olympics have wrapped up, the Milan Cortina Paralympic Games kick off on March 6. Dozens of athletes will represent Team USA in sled hockey, skiing, wheelchair curling, and snowboarding. But getting to the Olympics or Paralympics is expensive and costs competitors an average of $12,000 a year. For winter athletes in particular, the costs can be even higher. But first: why the FDA is looking to put the brakes on compounded GLP-1s.

Native America Calling - Thursday, February 26, 2026 — Native Hawaiians work to save birds with rich ecological and cultural significance
Honeycreepers only live in Hawai’i and the birds are interwoven into Native Hawaiian culture. Feathers from the strikingly colorful birds are a key part of ceremonial cloaks and other regalia. The birds themselves are prominent in cultural stories, but of the more than 50 original species of honeycreepers, only 17 survive — and those are threatened with extinction. Several factors contribute to the population decline, but a pressing concern is a mosquito-borne avian malaria. We’ll hear from Native Hawaiian conservationists on the efforts to save these unique and important birds.
GUESTS
Bret Mossman (Native Hawaiian), director of Birds Hawai‘i Past Present
Ben Catcho (Native Hawaiian), Indigenous communications and outreach specialist for the American Bird Conservancy and outreach lead for Birds Not Mosquitoes
Keoki Kanakaokai (Native Hawaiian and Athabascan), natural resource manager for The Nature Conservancy Maui Terrestrial Program and co-lead of the Nature Conservancy Native Network
Hina Kneubuhl (Native Hawaiian), translator, storyteller, and kapa maker
