The restoration and rerelease of Unzipped—the ur-fashion documentary— with Janus this September has had the Vogue office abuzz for months. Ahead of its run in theaters The Run-Through co-host Nicole Phelps—who says the film was her “gateway drug to fashion,” met with inimitably charming Isaac Mizrahi, designer, performer, the film's star and since June 2026, Target's first Creative Director at Large, to talk supermodels, and not mixing work with love—or Ambien.   “It was a very good moment in fashion,” conjectures Mizrahi about the continuing draw of the film. “I bet if you had substituted some other fabulous, funny people in that movie, it would've been good. Mm. You know? It was just a good moment. But specifically in my oeuvre, it was almost inevitable to tell a story of that kind, because I don't know if their fittings were as hilarious as my fittings, you know? …  I think that's another thing, the interaction of [those women, those supermodels, and these designers. You know, it really was, it was photogenic. You know, the camera really loved this subject.”  Nonetheless, Mizrahi has more of a bird's-eye perspective on the impact of Unzipped than most of the rest of the world. “So as to Unzipped and it changing my life, you know, I don't really feel it changed my life,” he said. Mizrahi identifies his transition from yeshiva to the Performing Arts High School as one of the tipping points  in his life. Another was landing a job at Perry Ellis. “I have to tell you, my dear, that was an incredibly inspiring place and it would've changed anybody.”  Unzipped had a similar effect on fashion documentaries, setting a bar that has rarely been reached since.  The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture. Hosted by Chloe Malle, Head of Editorial Content, Vogue U.S.; Chioma Nnadi, Head of British Vogue; and Nicole Phelps, Director of Vogue Runway, each episode features the latest fashion news and exclusive designer and celebrity interviews.

This is a Vintage episode from 2006.You're hearing a preview of this subscriber bonus episode. Restaurant Guys' Regulars can hear the full episode, plus other commercial-free bonus episodes, at  restaurantguysregulars.buzzsprout.com .Why This Episode MattersWhy one of the world's most prized ingredients commands extraordinary prices.How truffle cultivation began challenging the romantic image of hunters searching the woods with trained dogs.Why aroma, scarcity and spectacle are as important to the allure of truffles as flavor.What happens when restaurants get their hands on thousands of dollars' worth of an ingredient that doesn't stay fresh for long.BanterMark Pascal and Francis Schott begin with a tale of New Jersey lobster justice that makes Maine's system of informal fishing rules look positively genteel. A territorial dispute involving lobster pots somehow progresses to gunfire, arson and a neighboring boat unfortunately parked in the wrong slip.Then, reports of people eating, and even cooking and driving, while asleep lead Mark to identify the true indignity: consuming thousands of calories without even getting to remember the meal.The ConversationFood writer Jane Black joins Mark and Francis after traveling through Spain to report on the changing world of truffles.The romantic picture is familiar: a hunter and his dog wandering through the woods in search of an elusive underground treasure. What Jane found instead were truffle orchards, inoculated trees and farmers trying to turn an unpredictable delicacy into a viable agricultural business.They explore why truffles became so scarce and expensive, how a former peasant food became one of dining's ultimate luxury ingredients, and why their remarkable aroma may matter more than their actual taste. Jane and the Guys also get into the sensual reputation of truffles, the theater of shaving them tableside and the questionable proliferation of truffle oil.Then come the cautionary tales: an enormously valuable white truffle purchased at a charity auction that was locked in a safe and allowed to rot, and Francis's considerably more personal horror story about a chef who received thousands of dollars' worth of beautiful fresh truffles—and immediately preserved them in oil.2026 update: At the time of this conversation, successful cultivation of the prized Italian white truffle (Tuber magnatum) remained elusive. Researchers have since documented controlled production of the species in a French orchard.Guest BioJane Black is a food journalist who covers food, culture, politics and sustainability. At the time of this interview, she was food editor at Boston Magazine and had written for publications including The New York Times, The Washington Post, BusinessWeek and Newsweek International. She later became a staff writer at The Washington Post and co-host of the James Beard Award-winning podcast Pressure Cooker.Timestamps0:00 New Jersey vigilante lobster justice4:35 Sleep eating, Ambien and forgotten calories7:20 Jane Black enters the changing world of truffles12:00 How truffles went from peasant food to luxury15:00 Why truffles smell like sex—and why aroma matters22:20 The $35,000 truffle disaster, Francis's truffle tragedy and the future of cultivationInfoJane's article on truffles“Cultivating a Mystique,” The New York Times (2006) Our PlacesStage Left Steakhttps://www.stageleft.com/Catherine Lombardi Restauranthttps://www.catherinelombardi.com/Stage Left Wineshophttps://www.stageleftwineshop.com/Reach Out to The Guys!TheGuys@restaurantguyspodcast.com

Kerri dives into the tragic 2018 killing of University of Utah student-athlete Lauren McCluskey, who was murdered by a man she had briefly dated after he lied about his identity and criminal past. The episode examines the warning signs Lauren reported to campus police in the days before her death and the systemic failures that followed, which ultimately led to major reforms in campus safety policy. Donna explores the eerie phenomenon known as "the Third Man," where people in extreme situations—mountaineers, shipwreck survivors, and disaster victims—report sensing an unseen presence guiding or comforting them. From Shackleton's Antarctic expedition to 9/11 survivors, she unpacks the science and speculation behind this strange, recurring experience of feeling accompanied when utterly alone.

Donna kicks things off with a trip to the Devil's Tramping Ground in Chatham County, North Carolina—a barren circle in the woods where legend says nothing will grow, animals refuse to enter, and anything left overnight mysteriously vanishes or moves by morning. She digs into the folklore behind the site, from Satan's midnight planning sessions to the eerie scientific explanations researchers have tried (and failed) to pin down. Then Kerri takes us into one of the most haunting true crime cases of the 1920s: the disappearance of nine-year-old Walter Collins from Los Angeles, and the "Changeling" scandal that followed when police tried to pass off an impostor child as him. She traces the chilling threads connecting Walter's case to the horrifying crimes of Gordon Stewart Northcott, the man behind the Wineville Chicken Coop Murders, and whether Walter may have been one of his victims.

Let's talk about the drugs in the Lindsay Clancy case.In this episode of True Crime with Jen Coffindaffer FBI, Jen Coffindaffer takes a deep dive into the 13 medications prescribed to Lindsay Clancy, explaining what each drug is, which prescriptions were actually filled, and the important distinction between what she was prescribed and what was reportedly found in her system.Jen examines medications including Ativan, Zoloft, Valium, Lamictal, Prozac, Ambien and others, while exploring the very different ways the prosecution and defense view their significance.She also raises questions about multiple providers and prescriptions, medication combinations, and whether the drugs played a role in Clancy's mental state at the time of the murders.A detailed look at the medication evidence—and why the numbers and dosages matter.#BreakTheCase #LindsayClancy #TrueCrime #MentalHealth #Psychosis #Medications #CrimeAnalysis #LegalAnalysis #TrueCrimeCommunity #Justice #CoffindafferFBI

Jay Gunkelman has read more than half a million brain scans — and this week he and host Pete Jansons open the Brain Bar with a claim that sounds impossible: your brain is lying to you about time itself. In the experiments Jay walks through, a person's body reacts emotionally to an image seconds BEFORE a random generator has even chosen which image they'll see. From there the panel takes your live questions across the map: the anxiety medications that quietly dig a two-year hole, kids told to remove part of their brain for epilepsy who turned it around another way, what autism, ADHD and addiction secretly share on an EEG, and how your alpha rhythm changes across your whole life. Plus Joshua Moore's intro to QEEG phenotypes — and Josh's own story of beating "incurable" torticollis after Walter Reed told him he'd end up in a wheelchair.

Thirteen psychiatric drugs. Seven prescribers. Four months. Three dead children. Everyone knows what Lindsay Clancy did. Almost nobody knows what was done to her first. Her husband told them the drugs were making her worse. A hospital team wrote it in her chart. She said it herself, over and over, in her own words, in writing. There is a note in that record explaining why nobody listened. One phrase. It is the reason this keeps happening, and once you hear it you will not be able to unhear it. Dr. Roger McFillin lays out the timeline and the question nobody is asking in that court room. 

If you have not slept properly in years this episode is for you. You lie down exhausted and your brain goes a million miles an hour. You wake at 3am for no reason and you are running on empty. This week's guest on the Medical Disruptor, Dr. Daniella Marchetti, holds the highest credential in behavioral sleep medicine. She works with veterans at the VA and with women in private practice, and she noticed something that changed how she treats insomnia. The gold standard treatment for getting a good night's rest was built on men's sleep. Women's sleep is different. The hormone shifts are different. The daily load is different. And when treatment does not account for that, women drop out of it. In this episode she explains why being wide awake and wired at night is usually not anxiety. It is your nervous system doing exactly what it was trained to do. We talk about how your sleep tracker may be making things worse by turning rest into a score you keep losing. She explains what melatonin actually does, why the doses most people take are far too high, and what she recommends instead. She also shares the one question to ask a provider before you trust them with your sleep. It's time to get a good night's sleep. Want more practical health tips?

The answer might be sitting in your medicine cabinet or in a disorder you've never been tested for.   In this episode, Dr. V sits down with Dr. Meredith Broderick, a triple board-certified neurologist and sleep medicine physician (one of only four in the world boarded in neurology, sleep medicine, AND behavioral sleep medicine) and founder of Sound Sleep Guru in Seattle.

"She never meant for us to leave that attic." We watched "Flowers in the Attic" (1987) with our friend, the hilarious Michael Morgan, and we will not be eating those cookies. Based on the novel by the prolific V.C. Andrews, this film is melodramatic, American gothic, and just a little trashy.  The Dollanganger children have been locked away in their grandparents' mansion by their scheming mother (Victoria Tennant) and uncaring grandmother, played by Nurse Ratched herself, the real queen diva Louise Fletcher. Every school kid in the 80s and 90s knew the dark secret the source novel, Flowers in the Attic, held - but the filmmakers got cold feet when it came to depicting eldest brother and sister Chris (Jeb Stuart Adams) and Cathy (Kristy Swanson) in shall we say, compromising situations. Even without the sensational aspects of the original book, the movie is still a ton of fun with the three female leads trading barbs (and slaps, and whips) every chance they get. Louise Fletcher is iconic as the grandmother you love to hate, while Victoria Tennant feels like she may have taken an Ambien and washed it down with her nightly Franzia. While not the most faithful book-to-screen adaptations ever, it may be all for the better since the source material is a little too cuckoo even for the 80s. We'll leave the full story of the Dollanganger clan to the Lifetime original movie series. Come for the Hagsploitation, stay for the iconic lines - "Eat the cookie, Mother!"

He's seen the rise and fall of Gilbert Arenas, the arrival and departure of John Wall, and everything from Gheorge Muresan to Muggsy Bogues, all without an NBA title in Jamel's lifetime. Mid-Range is both the title of his new comedy album and the name of type of jump shot he hopes the team can nail as it heads into a new season with number one overall pick, AJ Dybantsa. Look, sports can be exciting and excitement doesn't lend itself well to falling asleep. But again, we're talking about the Washington Wizards, so you should be fine.

All Links Here: ⁠https://hunterwilliamshealth.com/linksMost people take DSIP expecting a peptide version of Ambien. That's why they end up writing it off.DSIP won't knock you out. It won't help you fall asleep either. What it does is normalize the structure of your sleep once it starts. It also turns down the volume on your stress axis.In this masterclass I walk through all of it. What DSIP actually is. The rabbit experiment in Basel that led to its discovery. And the strange fact that 50 years in, nobody has found its receptor.I get into the dosing tiers and why 100 to 200 micrograms leaves most people feeling nothing. I cover timing and the 30 minute half-life. And why this needs a week or two of consecutive nights before results show up.We also cover stacking. Epitalon for the timing signal, GH secretagogues, SS-31, and the bioregulators. Plus what I would stay away from.Then troubleshooting and a full FAQ. Legality, growth hormone, the old withdrawal trials, side effects, and whether cycling is worth it.Fair warning. The human data here is old and thin. I am honest about that throughout, including where we only have rodent work.Run it right and DSIP earns its place quietly.

Kerri covers the disturbing true story of Roch Thériault and the Ant Hill Kids. The Canadian commune where a self-proclaimed prophet's control his followers which escalated into years of documented abuse and violence. It's a hard listen at times, but an important one about how isolation and manipulation let something so horrific go unchecked for so long. Donna's story takes us to the Grand Midway Hotel. This once-grand stopover has a past that includes fires, financial ruin, and a guest list that apparently never fully checked out. She'll get into the ghost tours, the reported sightings, and why paranormal investigators keep coming back for more.

Intubated. Unable to speak. Her three children dead. Lindsay Clancy was handed an erasable whiteboard in a hospital bed. The first thing she communicated was a question that the prosecution and defense interpret in completely opposite ways.The jury is seated in Plymouth Superior Court. Both sides agree she killed her three children. The dispute is whether she knew what she was doing. The prosecution says the Apple Maps search on her phone, the timing of her husband's errand, and her actions during that window prove calculated premeditation. The defense says thirteen psychiatric medications in four months destroyed her capacity to understand reality.Zoloft. Prozac. Klonopin. Seroquel. Valium. Ambien. Her husband Patrick Clancy told her doctors she had turned into a zombie and nobody changed course. One prescriber did not know what another was giving her. She begged for help repeatedly.Patrick Clancy appears on both witness lists. The prosecution plans to call him first. He filed a medical malpractice lawsuit against her providers. He publicly said he was not married to a monster. He forgave her.Massachusetts is one of the states where the prosecution bears the burden on insanity. They must prove she was sane beyond a reasonable doubt. Andrea Yates was convicted, then acquitted at retrial, under a Texas standard that put the burden on the defense.Andrea Yates drowned five children during a postpartum psychotic episode in Texas. A jury convicted her. A second jury acquitted her on retrial. Massachusetts places the burden on the prosecution, not the defense. The Commonwealth must prove Lindsay Clancy was sane beyond a reasonable doubt. With thirteen medications and a medical record full of ignored warnings, that burden may be the prosecution's biggest obstacle.Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer examines the whiteboard moment, the prosecution's risk in calling Patrick Clancy first, the Yates parallel, and whether this jury can clear the bar Massachusetts has set.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

After her children died, Lindsay Clancy was in a hospital bed with a tube down her throat. She could not speak. She was given an erasable whiteboard. The first thing she wrote on that whiteboard was a question. It is one of the most contested moments in this entire case.Her jury is seated. Eighteen people in Plymouth Superior Court will have to decide whether a mother who was on thirteen psychiatric medications was criminally responsible when she killed her three children. Both sides stipulate that she did it. The fight is over whether she was sane.The prosecution argues premeditation. She used Apple Maps to calculate how long her husband would be gone. She allegedly strangled all three children during that window and then attempted to take her own life by jumping from a second-story window.The defense argues systemic failure. Thirteen medications in four months. Zoloft, Prozac, Klonopin, Seroquel, Valium, Ambien. Her husband Patrick told the doctors she had turned into a zombie. No one coordinated care.Patrick Clancy is expected to testify first for the prosecution. He filed a malpractice suit against her doctors. He told a reporter he was not married to a monster. Under Massachusetts law, the prosecution must prove she was sane beyond a reasonable doubt.Andrea Yates was convicted, then acquitted at retrial, under a Texas standard that required the defense to prove insanity. Massachusetts flips the burden. The prosecution has to prove Lindsay Clancy was sane beyond a reasonable doubt. That is a higher bar to clear, and the medical record is not going to make it easier.Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down the whiteboard question, the risk in calling Patrick Clancy as the prosecution's first witness, the Andrea Yates parallel, and what this prosecution needs to survive its burden.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Kerri covers the disturbing true story of Roch Thériault and the Ant Hill Kids. The Canadian commune where a self-proclaimed prophet's control his followers which escalated into years of documented abuse and violence. It's a hard listen at times, but an important one about how isolation and manipulation let something so horrific go unchecked for so long. Donna's story takes us to the Grand Midway Hotel. This once-grand stopover has a past that includes fires, financial ruin, and a guest list that apparently never fully checked out. She'll get into the ghost tours, the reported sightings, and why paranormal investigators keep coming back for more.

We are in the second week of our 4-part series on the 6th-leading cause of death in America.  In this episode, we focus on the various Structure-Function Care treatments at Holistic Integration that improve brain health.  In this episode, you'll learn:—How Alzheimer's treatment from a Disease Care perspective is almost exclusively focused on the amyloid plaques, which has not been effective thus far.—Why lymphatic and venous drainage from the brain is  a "critical" factor and is actually a specialty of Holistic Integration's Structural Care. —The explanation about why insomnia drugs like Ambien are not helpful for clearing out amyloid plaques in the brain while you sleep. —The "well-proven" nutritional aspects that can improve your brain health.  And how Holistic Integration can test supplements to know which ones will work best for you. —How a proper Vitamin D level is "probably the most proven thing to help with brain health" and can reduce your chances of developing Dementia by 40%. —Why Vitamin D from sunlight is better for the body than in supplement form.  And the best time of day to get your dose of sunshine. —The danger of Heavy Metals to your brain health and how Dr. Prather definitely sees a correlation between Aluminum and Alzheimer's.  And how Holistic Integration is "100% successful" in gently detoxing the body from Heavy Metals without the harshness of chelation.—How Hormones have "a huge effect" on the health of your brain and can increase your chances of developing Alzheimer's.—The reason why Dr. Prather says the Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic adjustment at Holistic Integration is "probably even more important than any other aspect" for anyone with Alzheimer's. —Why you are more likely to develop brain problems if you have a "head forward" posture.  And how this aberrant posture has increased dramatically over the years. http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com*Receive exclusive bonus content as a member of our Voice Of Health Patreon Community:https://www.patreon.com/cw/VoiceofHealthPodcast

Mens Room Question: Why is the bathroom important to the story?

Kerri covers the case of Raymond Edmunds, dubbed "Mr. Stinky" by a cheeky newspaper sub-editor. He was a convicted double murderer and serial rapist who terrorized Victoria, Australia for over two decades. Donna tells us about Eleanor Butler and Sarah Ponsonby, the Ladies of Llangollen. They were two upper-class Irish women determined to resist the fate of conventional marriage, so committed to their freedom that they disguised themselves as men and fled Ireland together in 1778. They settled into a Gothic home called Plas Newydd in North Wales, where their unconventional life together both scandalized and captivated everyone. This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

View the Show Notes Page for This Episode Become a Member to Receive Exclusive Content Sign Up to Receive Peter's Weekly Newsletter In this episode, Peter dives into the pharmacology of sleep, exploring where sleep medications fit within the broader framework of achieving healthy, restorative sleep. He explains why sleep is a biological imperative, why behavioral and environmental interventions must remain the foundation of good sleep, and how medications can serve as useful tools when carefully matched to a person's specific sleep problem. Peter examines the major classes of prescription sleep medications, including how they work, their effects on sleep architecture, their duration of action, side effects, and risks of tolerance and dependence. He also discusses the dangers of using sleep drugs without a clear understanding of the underlying problem being treated, the role of medications as short-term bridges during periods of acute stress, pain, or anxiety, and the promise that newer drugs like DORAs may hold for Alzheimer's prevention in high-risk individuals. Finally, Peter reviews the evidence for select off-label medications and supplements commonly used for sleep. We discuss: The biological foundations of sleep, the major drivers of sleep dysfunction, and the role sleep medications can play when appropriately matched to specific sleep problems [1:00]; Sleep hygiene, circadian alignment, and the medical causes of insomnia: building the foundation for effective sleep treatment [7:15]; Understanding insomnia: hyperarousal, CBT-I, paradoxical insomnia, and why different sleep problems require different treatments [12:45]; The difference between sedation and physiologic sleep: sleep architecture, restorative sleep stages, and matching medications to specific sleep problems [17:00]; Benzodiazepines for insomnia: mechanisms, effects on sleep architecture, and the risks of long-term use [18:45]; Z-drugs for insomnia: how Ambien, Sonata, and Lunesta work, and the ongoing risks of sleep medications targeting GABA systems [23:00]; Dual orexin receptor antagonists (DORAs) and the future of sleep medicine: orexin signaling, sleep architecture, and the emerging connection between sleep and Alzheimer's disease [27:15]; Melatonin for circadian timing: how timing signals differ from sedatives in the treatment of sleep disorders [36:30]; Trazodone for insomnia: preserving deep sleep while minimizing the risks of traditional sedative-hypnotics [42:00]; First-generation antihistamines for sleep: short-term sedation, anticholinergic risks, and concerns about long-term cognitive health [44:00]; Sleep supplements and the evidence behind them: glycine, magnesium, ashwagandha, phosphatidylserine, and more [45:45]; Takeaways: supplement quality, individualized sleep treatment, and the importance of matching interventions to the biology of insomnia [52:00]; and More.
