The holiday season brings many fun traditions, like going to see the lights, opening Advent calendars, baking, or shopping for the perfect gift. Since the holidays also signal the end of the year, it can be a time to think about taxes, too. Nate Reineke and Chelsea Jones break down some of the tax breaks doctors like you can try to catch at the last second, like maxing out contributions. We also look at some tax breaks that take a bit more planning, like charitable donations, that you could plan for in 2026. We also answer your colleagues' questions. An Anesthesiologist in Iowa says, “I want to help my son with a home purchase - what is the best way for me to do this?” An Oncologist in Colorado asks, “Do you think a really early retirement is worth pursuing?” A Family Medicine Doc in Texas says, “I've heard about this opportunity from a few colleagues to buy into this cash flow business (storage units). The projected return seems really appealing (20-30% over 3 years). What do you think?” Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! Are you ready to turn worries about taxes and investing into all the money you need for college and retirement? It's time to make a plan and get on track.

if you have any feedback, please send us a text! Thank you!Welcome to another episode of the CSA's Podcast Vital Times In September 2025, a landmark ruling by a California judge stated that nonphysicians could not use the term “Doctor” in a clinical setting. This was a ruling in response to a lawsuit filed by Three California-based nurse practitioners. They challenged California Business and Professions Code Section 2052, which makes it a misdemeanor for nonphysicians to use “Dr” in clinical settings or advertisements.Judge Jesus G. Bernal wrote in the opinion that using the title “Dr.” by nonphysicians in clinical contexts is “inherently misleading” and amounts to regulated commercial speech. Because of that, it does not fall under free speech protections.The court sided with the state, which argued that allowing nonphysicians to use “Dr.” could confuse patients about who is providing their care. Bernal cited an American Medical Association (AMA) survey showing: 39% of patients mistakenly believed that DNPs are physicians. He concluded that even when nurses disclose their credentials, the risk of confusion remains high in healthcare settings.To help us understand the importance of both the law and the ruling - 3 amazing patient advocates ae joining the show today.Dr. Rebekah Bernard is a family physician in Fort Myers, Florida.

Anesthesiologist and clinical mental health counselor Maire Daugharty discusses her article "How therapy helps uncover hidden patterns." Maire explains how psychotherapy leverages the brain's pattern-seeking nature to reveal implicit beliefs formed in early life, often outside conscious awareness. She describes how therapy provides a unique relational space for exploring assumptions, processing emotions, and reframing expectations—leading to profound shifts in self-reliance, resilience, and meaning-making. Drawing on depth psychology and Erik Erikson's stages of psychosocial growth, Maire illustrates how uncovering hidden narratives can transform relationships, ease life transitions, and help individuals face aging and mortality with integrity. Listeners will learn how therapy can dismantle limiting beliefs, foster autonomy, and cultivate deeper well-being across the lifespan. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.

This Week on Dopey! We are joined by Oro Recovery Medical Director - Dr. Jason Giles! We also read old comments and hear from a few dopes in the dopey nation. Then Dave interviews Dr.  Giles—twice board-certified in addiction medicine (via ABAM then ABPM), previously board-certified in anesthesiology and pain medicine, and a recovering opioid addict. He grew up in Santa Monica with a severely alcoholic father, fell into the second-wave ska/mod scene (Vespa, sharkskin suits, amphetamines), dropped out of high school, then clawed his way through community college to Berkeley, volunteering at the Berkeley Free Clinic and falling in love with medicine.He explains anesthesia's demands (no pain, no memory; muscle relaxants; airway control), the human connection of pediatric anesthesia, and the hope-work of pain management. In 1999, curiosity and stress led him to divert fentanyl: he edited paper records, carried a 2 mL syringe for a month, then IV-used with sterile technique. After a six-week gap he used again, convincing himself he could “handle it.” Use escalated to daily “after work,” leaving him in daytime withdrawal. The department chair paged him about missing fentanyl; instead of punishment, he offered help and a path into California's 5-year diversion program (treatment, meetings, testing). Giles detoxed cold turkey, went to AA (first meeting mostly doctors), found he wasn't unique, and built long-term sobriety (nearly 26 years by his telling), learning service and vulnerability through treatment feedback groups.With sobriety he finished residency, married, had a son, worked in cardiac anesthesia and pain, and then moved into addiction treatment (Malibu), where his science and lived experience met the work. He and Dave range widely: purpose/mission as a recovery engine; Bill W., boomerangs and ants; truth-serum myths; Halsted (cocaine→heroin), Freud letters, Hitler's amphetamines/opioids (book Blitzed), kratom (mixed withdrawal profiles), benzos vs. opiates (benzo withdrawal = fear), intraoperative awareness & memory, Suboxone vs. abstinence (cast/training-wheels framing), fentanyl's dominance (counterfeit pills; heroin now rare), and whether fentanyl appears in non-opioid street drugs (he says he's seen it).

Sedation emergencies may be rare, but when they happen, the consequences can be catastrophic. In this episode, anesthesiologist Dr. Richard Marn shares a practical framework to help oral surgeons prepare for high-stress, low-frequency events that can jeopardize patient safety and derail a practice. Drawing on his work with multiple oral surgeons and his extensive simulation training experience, Dr. Marn walks through four key pillars of readiness: Infrastructure, Competency, Culture, and Habit. He offers real-world strategies for building team alignment, from five-minute huddles and tabletop drills to equipment checks and fostering psychological safety. Along the way, he underscores how leadership and communication can transform a group of individuals into a high-performing team. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to embed a culture of calm, confident emergency response.Key Points From This Episode:Dr. Richard Marn's journey from surgery intern to pediatric anesthesiologist.The importance of stress testing your staff for an emergency event.Four pillars of emergency readiness: Infrastructure, Competency, Culture, and Habit.The definition of Halo events (High Acuity Low Occurrence) and their potentially devastating impact.Why preparation is critical to protect your practice during Halo events.How Dr. Marn conducts five-minute emergency drills to build team alignment.Sedation as a high-risk activity and how to prepare for it.Why soft skills and teamwork are as important as CPR or airway management.Simulation training: how they reveal common gaps in emergency preparedness.Little details that matter, like knowing how to turn on an oxygen tank.The importance of regular huddles: to build habits and uncover weak spots before an emergency hits.How to make sure your emergency equipment is in working order: assign liaisons to keep emergency kits, meds, and devices ready for use.What you can do to help your team practice emergency skills during real-life, low-stakes cases.How culture and psychological safety can affect a team's emergency response.Why culture shifts start with leadership and clear communication of expectations.How to access a free online assessment to evaluate team readiness.Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Richard Marn — https://www.drrichardmarn.com/ Dr. Richard Marn on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/richardmarn/ Online Sedation Risk Assessment — https://emergency.scoreapp.comCenter for Medical Simulation — https://harvardmedsim.org/ Online Sedation Risk Assessment — https://emergency.scoreapp.com Blue Pacific Medical Simulation — https://bpmedsim.com/ New York Medical Anesthesia — https://nymedicalanesthesia.com/Everyday Oral Surgery Website — https://www.everydayoralsurgery.com/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/everydayoralsurgery/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/EverydayOralSurgery/Dr. Grant Stucki Email — grantstucki@gmail.comDr. Grant Stucki Phone — 720-441-6059

In this episode of the Curious Realm Podcast, Host Christopher Jordan ventures forth to the 2025 Turning the Tide 9/11 Justice Conference in Washington, DC. Sponsored by the International Center for 9/11 Justice, this one-of-a-kind conference brings together the best researchers in the world of 9/112 research with everything from presentations, to open forum debates on the topic and new data that has been found in recent years concerning the most tragic event to ever occur on US soil.In the first part of this episode we welcome Wayne Coste. We discuss his latest data regarding the attack on the Pentagon in Washington, DC on 9/11. From his research he has found that the case for the Pentagon being struck by a plane is absolute. From frames of video showing a plane, to damage on objects as well as the pentagon itself, which is indicative of a plane, not a missile, and even new discovered flight recorder data that confirms these data points. Our second guest is author and researcher, Madhava Setty, MD. We discuss his book Woke. An Anesthesiologist's View and how the principles discussed in it apply to field of 9/11 research as well as his work with the International Center for 9/11 Justice. How are we to discern fact from fiction? How we can begin to open minds to the reality of science, which shows the events of 9/112 and the fall of buildings in New York were NOT caused by fire. As well as how now, 25 years later, hearts and minds of not only the public, but survivors, and families of victims may be ready to face these hard truths. Our next guest is Dr Aaron Good, political scientist, and author of the book, American Exception: Empire and the Deep State. We discuss the many ways that the September 11th attacks were exploited by the national security state to justify more covert operations and expand US imperial power. As well as the long history of imperialistic actions by the United States across the globe and many ways that has led our country down a road of political self-destruction. Next, we welcome Dr Richard Elelfritz, assistant professor of sociology, and author of Gale Researcher Guide for: Social Media and Global Social Movements. We sit down to discuss the long-term sociologic and psychologic effects that the 9/11 attacks have had on society, as well as the ways in which personal belief and bias affect the way we take in data about world shaking catastrophic events like these. Up next, we sit down with physicist, physics teacher, and researcher with 911SpeakOut.org, David Chandler to discuss his expert analysis of the events of 9/11 and how the narrative provided in the National Institute of Science report provided on the twin towers and world trade center building seven do not add up scientifically. We also get into the physics of the building falls as they happened and the numerous anomalies not only in the NIST report, but on videos of the events themselves. Next, we welcome Dr Piers Robinson, research director of the International Center of 9/11 Justice, and board member and researcher for the Organisation for Propaganda Studies. We get into the media's involvement with pushing the false narratives presented after the 9/11 disasters. We also discuss the long-time relationship of the media with the CIA and other propaganda creating groups and the numerous cases throughout US history of propaganda being used as a false flag leading the United States into for-profit war mongering actions across the globe. Our next guest is Matt Campbell, Family member to one of the few UK victims in the World Trade Center attacks of 9/11, who was killed by a massive explosion in the structure he was in, leaving much of his remains unfound. But their question has yet to be answered as to how their family member died of a catastrophic explosion in the twin towers when he was on a floor that was supposedly crushed by collapse in the destruction of the building. We sit down to talk about the long-term impact the events and aftermath of 9/11 have had on his family, as well as the ongoing case against the UK Attorney General to have the results of his brother death inquest unsealed, so that his family may finally have answers to what happen to their loved one on that fateful day. Up next we welcome civil engineer and researcher 911SpeakOut.org, Jonathan Cole. We discuss how he, once a proponent of the given narrative of 9/11 came to his point of personal conversion into a 9/11 researcher after seeing unscientific data in not only the National Institute of Science report, but other data regarding the 9/11 attacks. We also discuss his many videos of actual scientific experiments that show how the data provided in the NIST report are not only false, but not capable of repeatable within actual real-world experiments, something which is ley to calling something in science a “fact”. Next, we are happy to welcome civil engineer William Brinnier who was witness to the falling of Twin Towers falling and friend of New York Port Authority building director who died in the upper floors of the towers while leading victims down the staircase to safety. We discuss how his friend came to be in this prominent position and how he was able to help so many get rescued, as well as how he has dealt with the loss of his friend and what his analysis of the collapse is as an architect. Our final guest is Ted Walter, executive director of the International Center for 9/11 Justice. We discuss his experience of being a college student in New York as the events of 9/11 unfolded, how it affected his life, and catalyzed him to the mission of finding the truth of what happened that day. We also get into the ways in which 9/11 was used as a means of passing sweeping laws that would forever change the way in which Americans lived their lives, and how the true cause of justice for 9/11 victims and their families can be served through new hearings in congress where scientific data showing the fallacies of the 9/11 Report and the report of findings submitted by the National Institute of Sciences after the haphazardly conducted 9/11 investigation. Join the Curious Realm as Christopher Jordan ventures to the 2025 Turning the Tide 9/11 Conference to talk with researchers and investigators into the events of 9/11 and some of the hard questions being asked and the astounding data that has been found and never revealed by mainstream media or the US Government.

What does medication security look like in the high-stakes environment of the operating room?In this episode of Rxpert Solutions, anesthesiologist Dr. Max Feinstein offers a unique perspective we rarely hear—how controlled substance management and diversion prevention actually play out during surgery.Together, we explore:- The realities of chain of custody in the OR- How pharmacy policies translate to anesthesia practice- The balance between compliance requirements and real-time patient care- Why collaboration between pharmacy and anesthesia providers is essentialDr. Feinstein's frontline insights remind us that diversion prevention isn't just about compliance—it's about designing systems that protect patients, providers, and the integrity of care.Thanks to our sponsor: MIDAS Healthcare SolutionsLearn more about how MidasVIEW™ safeguards patient and caregiver safety while driving compliance in controlled substance waste management: https://midashs.com/More from Rxpert Solutions: https://www.rxpert.solutions/

In this episode of the Curious Realm Podcast, Host Christopher Jordan ventures forth to the 2025 Turning the Tide 9/11 Justice Conference in Washington, DC. Sponsored by the International Center for 9/11 Justice, this one-of-a-kind conference brings together the best researchers in the world of 9/112 research with everything from presentations, to open forum debates on the topic and new data that has been found in recent years concerning the most tragic event to ever occur on US soil.In the first part of this episode we welcome Wayne Coste. We discuss his latest data regarding the attack on the Pentagon in Washington, DC on 9/11. From his research he has found that the case for the Pentagon being struck by a plane is absolute. From frames of video showing a plane, to damage on objects as well as the pentagon itself, which is indicative of a plane, not a missile, and even new discovered flight recorder data that confirms these data points. Our second guest is author and researcher, Madhava Setty, MD. We discuss his book Woke. An Anesthesiologist's View and how the principles discussed in it apply to field of 9/11 research as well as his work with the International Center for 9/11 Justice. How are we to discern fact from fiction? How we can begin to open minds to the reality of science, which shows the events of 9/112 and the fall of buildings in New York were NOT caused by fire. As well as how now, 25 years later, hearts and minds of not only the public, but survivors, and families of victims may be ready to face these hard truths. Our next guest is Dr Aaron Good, political scientist, and author of the book, American Exception: Empire and the Deep State. We discuss the many ways that the September 11th attacks were exploited by the national security state to justify more covert operations and expand US imperial power. As well as the long history of imperialistic actions by the United States across the globe and many ways that has led our country down a road of political self-destruction. Next, we welcome Dr Richard Elelfritz, assistant professor of sociology, and author of Gale Researcher Guide for: Social Media and Global Social Movements. We sit down to discuss the long-term sociologic and psychologic effects that the 9/11 attacks have had on society, as well as the ways in which personal belief and bias affect the way we take in data about world shaking catastrophic events like these. Up next, we sit down with physicist, physics teacher, and researcher with 911SpeakOut.org, David Chandler to discuss his expert analysis of the events of 9/11 and how the narrative provided in the National Institute of Science report provided on the twin towers and world trade center building seven do not add up scientifically. We also get into the physics of the building falls as they happened and the numerous anomalies not only in the NIST report, but on videos of the events themselves. Next, we welcome Dr Piers Robinson, research director of the International Center of 9/11 Justice, and board member and researcher for the Organisation for Propaganda Studies.

Otto E. Stallworth, Jr, MD, MBA, an anesthesiologist and then a cosmetic surgeon, was born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama during the 1940s, fifties and sixties. He crossed the Alabama state line for the first time at sixteen to attend college and was the first college graduate in his family. This was followed by a medical degree at 24 and later an MBA outside of medicine. He has had several businesses, including Oh Yes! Management and Hollywood Fries Restaurant. In 2022, he began the Stallworth Oh Yes! Foundation, which has awarded four-year full scholarships to students at Howard University and Meharry Medical College in Nashville, Tennessee, his alma maters. He published his memoir in 2023. Look soon for his first murder mystery. "When I got into med school, it was even better than anything I could imagine. Every day was a new adventure because you learn about all these different diseases and study the human body. Studying all of this was very intriguing. As a child I just wanted to have this skill to be able to help people. You see someone that is sick and think about if you could cure them or help them get cured or give them the right advice–that seemed like an amazing and very powerful thing."

Anesthesiologist and clinical mental health counselor Maire Daugharty discusses her article, "Why peer support can save lives in high-pressure medical careers." Drawing from her personal experience of losing three colleagues to suicide and overdose, Maire makes a powerful case for peer support as a direct antidote to the isolation that plagues the medical profession. She explains how the culture of medicine, with its relentless pursuit of perfection, leaves physicians vulnerable to despair when they inevitably face human fallibility. The conversation explores how structured peer support creates a space for authentic connection, validating shared struggles and mitigating the self-recrimination that can follow adverse outcomes. Maire also clarifies that while peer support is a lifeline, it is also a crucial tool for identifying colleagues who need deeper professional help, and for normalizing that next step. Her core message is an urgent call for medical environments to integrate protected peer support programs as an essential, proactive strategy to save lives.

Cardiac arrest in the operating room presents unique challenges that standard Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS) protocols simply were not designed to address. This eye-opening exploration with APSF author, Zachary Smith, reveals why traditional resuscitation guidelines fall short when emergencies strike during surgery and anesthesia care.The dynamics of cardiac arrest differ dramatically in the perioperative environment. While out-of-hospital arrests typically stem from arrhythmic events, OR emergencies often result from hemorrhage, embolism, hypoxemia, or critical drug reactions like malignant hyperthermia or local anesthetic toxicity. These scenarios demand immediate, specialized interventions beyond standard ACLS algorithms.Physical constraints further complicate matters. What happens when cardiac arrest occurs while a patient is positioned prone, lateral, or in steep Trendelenburg? Traditional compressions become impossible, and emerging research suggests prone CPR might actually be superior in some scenarios. Moreover, the advanced monitoring capabilities in the OR – arterial lines, central venous pressure readings, and echocardiography – provide critical data not incorporated into standard protocols.The American Society of Anesthesiologists has responded with their Perioperative Resuscitation and Life Support Certificate program, addressing these gaps through specialized training that combines ACLS principles with OR-specific knowledge.  Ready to enhance your skills beyond basic ACLS? Explore the ASA's certificate program to earn patient safety CME credits while gaining life-saving expertise tailored to the unique challenges of the operating room. Your specialized knowledge could make all the difference when seconds count.For show notes & transcript, visit our episode page at apsf.org: https://www.apsf.org/podcast/264-rethinking-resuscitation-in-the-operating-room-beyond-acls/© 2025, The Anesthesia Patient Safety Foundation

Would you still go through with surgery if you knew what really happened behind the scenes?In Part 2 of our most jaw-dropping series yet, Dr. Rady Rahban is once again joined by Paula, a seasoned OR nurse turned nurse practitioner, to continue exposing the shocking realities taking place in some of the most prestigious operating rooms in Beverly Hills. From false pregnancy tests being ignored… to untrained staff administering meds… to surgeons leaving the OR mid-procedure—this episode is not fiction. It's Paula's real-life experience, and it will make you think twice about who you're trusting with your body and your life. We unpack the dark truth about how cutting corners in plastic surgery is often about one thing: money. And while the glamor of board certification and big social media followings may lure you in, what happens after you go under is what matters most. This is not about fear. It's about being informed.

Anesthesiologist and psychotherapist Maire Daugharty discusses her article, "Why real therapy isn't just about crisis." She challenges the common misconception that therapy is only necessary or effective during acute crises ("crisis-hopping"), explaining that this view can lead to premature termination—a "flight to health"—when underlying work remains. Maire emphasizes that periods of calm in therapy are essential for integrating positive changes, processing accomplishments, and solidifying shifts in perspective and self-structure. The conversation also explores the critical importance of respecting patient autonomy and boundaries in both therapeutic and medical settings, acknowledging that clinicians cannot fully know a patient's inner world. Furthermore, Maire clearly distinguishes the deep, exploratory work of psychotherapy, which often involves confronting difficult truths ("approaching the shattered mirror") and altering implicit assumptions, from the explicit skill-building and goal-oriented approach of coaching, which works with the existing self-structure.

Are you feeling the weight of perfectionism and the constant need to achieve? Dr. Tiffany Moon's journey is a testament to how the pressure to be perfect can hinder personal fulfillment. As a successful physician, reality TV star, and author, she realized that her life was driven by external accomplishments rather than internal joy.  In this episode, Dr. Tiffany shares how she stopped living for external validation and began to align her actions with her authentic self. From moving away from toxic friendships to learning the art of saying no, she highlights the importance of setting boundaries and prioritizing well-being over societal expectations.  Her book, Joy Prescriptions, explores this journey and how Dr. Tiffany applied her doctor's mindset to prescribe joy in everyday life. It's not just about removing the negative but creating space for what truly brings happiness.  Ready to start your own journey of self-rediscovery?

This week on SUPERWOMEN, I'm joined by Dr. Tiffany Moon, board-certified anesthesiologist, entrepreneur, author, and former cast member of “The Real Housewives of Dallas,” for an honest conversation about finding perspective and building self-worth. In this episode, Tiffany shares some of the lessons that shaped her new book, “Joy Prescriptions,” and opens up about the power of letting go, saying no, and finding confidence outside of achievement. We discuss her incredible journey, from her unexpected leap into reality TV to launching multiple businesses. Tiffany opens up about the moment she realized success wasn't synonymous with joy, and how that realization led her to reimagine her life. The accolades, the titles, and the “dream job” just weren't filling up her cup the way she had imagined they would. Between launching a summit for professional women and juggling multiple businesses, she lets us in the power of using joy, not perfection, as a metric of success.Whether she's in the operating room, onstage at her LeadHer Summit, or at home with her twin daughters, Tiffany's story is a reminder that life doesn't start after reaching your professional goals—it begins when you “find worth in just being you.”Thank you for listening!
