Kohberger Exposed: Apartment Photos, “Hidey Hole” Theory & Thyroid Rx Reveal  This complete segment pulls together the newly released visuals and details surrounding Bryan Kohberger—from the stark images of his apartment to a prescription bottle that has ignited fresh debate. We start inside the living space: bare walls, stripped shelves, missing shower curtain, abundant cleaning supplies, and documented blood traces and handprints. With retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer, Tony Brueski considers whether the minimalism was style—or a deliberate post-crime scrub-down akin to the reported disassembly and cleaning of Kohberger's vehicle. The conversation stays grounded in what the photos actually show while acknowledging the investigative inferences professionals weigh during a major true crime case. Academic files and graded essays appear routine to a criminology-trained eye, but the personal artifacts stand out—most notably the birthday cards dated just after the murders, including a card from Kohberger's mother that frames him as both the formal academic and the uncontrolled force. Those notes, combined with a self-congratulatory selfie and tight birthday timing, help sketch a portrait of self-image and ritualized thinking without veering into speculation. The segment then addresses the most debated non-paper item: bear spray. Coffindaffer lays out a theory many analysts have floated—the idea of a remote cache or “hidey hole” containing indicia of the crime (garments, knife, reminders), with bear spray serving as practical protection for return trips into wooded areas. The discussion references circuitous travel routes, a shovel with “dirt” comparisons, and why investigators map movements against potential stash sites. The final act is the levothyroxine (thyroxine) prescription seen in the apartment. No one suggests the drug causes violence; millions take it safely. The point is evidentiary: it's notable that a routine thyroid medication is present while other prescriptions one might expect—given public claims of ASD, OCD, ADHD, and ARFID—were not documented in this search. That absence raises procedural questions for both sides: who prescribed the thyroid med, for how long, was he adherent, did he travel with a second bottle, and what—if anything—was in his “go bag”? Coffindaffer explains why defense teams probe medication timelines, how adherence can affect energy and appetite, and why establishing what was (and wasn't) in his possession matters for narrative and strategy. Presented in a serious, cinematic true crime news style, this is a comprehensive, fact-forward recap designed to keep you fully informed without sensationalism.

Alzheimer's and dementia are some of the scariest realities for adults to consider. No one wants to feel like they're going to lose their mind!But in this day and age, it feels like cognitive decline is inevitable for many of us, “just a normal part of aging.”Similarly, our culture has come to accept that many kids are neurodivergent, that their brains are wired differently. We diagnose it as ADHD or ASD, or we see that 1/3 of our teens have clinical anxiety and we think, “It's just the way the world is. We'll help them navigate.”My guest today, Dr. Kristine Bosnar, wants us all to push back against acceptance. In fact, she says that the neuro-inflammation at the root of Alzheimer's and dementia is the SAME as what we see in kids with ADHD and other mental health struggles!

Kyla Lee and Paul Doroshenko open with Ottawa's decision to pause Canada's 2026 EV sales target and launch a 60-day review. They weigh the policy and trade crosswinds—auto-maker pressure, U.S. tariffs, Chinese EV competition, and new biofuel incentives—asking what a reset means for drivers, enforcement, and the market. They then unpack a fresh Saskatchewan Court of Appeal decision on “refusal” that re-affirms classic criminal-law principles: after a lawful ASD demand, the Crown must still prove a subjective intent to thwart the breath test—not merely a failed sample—before any “reasonable excuse” analysis. The ruling clarifies mens rea and pushes back on attempts to make refusal quasi-strict liability. Next, an Ontario trial ruling tackles s.10(b) in the smartphone era: when a detainee asks to find a specific lawyer, police must provide meaningful access to information—often supervised internet access—not just an outdated directory. Where access to counsel is denied, the actus reus of refusal isn't made out at all. Ridiculous Driver of the Week: a three-car pileup pinned on raccoons crossing the road—raising the perennial question of when stopping for wildlife crosses into driving “without reasonable consideration” for other road users.

In ASD, a high prevalence of FRAA (up to 75%) has been documented, leading to impaired cerebral folate transport and subsequent deficiency despite normal serum folate levels.[1][2] Leucovorin utilizes the reduced folate carrier to restore central nervous system folate levels, thereby addressing a key pathophysiological mechanism in a subset of children with ASD.[1][2]Treatment of Folate Metabolism Abnormalities in Autism Spectrum Disorder.

This year is the 50th anniversary of the first transcatheter ASD closure in a human. To celebrate this achievement, this week we air a live interview from PICS 2025 in Chicago (conducted 8/26/25) with living interventional cardiology legend Dr. Terry King speaking about the events surrounding his landmark intervention as the first person to ever perform a transcatheter ASD closure with his partner, surgeon Dr. Noel Mills. In this one on one interview, Dr. King discusses how he came up with this idea with Dr. Mills and how he found a patient in which to proceed. He reviews what 'informed consent' was in 1975 and also how he and Dr. Mills accurately estimated ASD size in an era that preceded 2D echocardiography. Dr. King speaks about the role of family in his life and offers advice to the next generation. Finally, he shares with us what he is up to today and why he does not believe in retirement. Prepare to be excited and inspired by this wonderful figure in our field. 

Send us a textThe potential link between acetaminophen (Tylenol) and autism, with a surprise phone call from RFK partway through.Episode Summary: Dr. William Parker talks about autism spectrum disorder (ASD), its rising prevalence since the 1980s, and the controversial hypothesis that acetaminophen exposure in susceptible infants and children triggers most cases via oxidative stress. They discuss ASD's clinical definition; historical misconceptions like the "refrigerator mother" theory; genetic susceptibilities; acetaminophen's metabolism, which produces toxic byproducts in underdeveloped livers, leading to brain effects.About the guest: William Parker, PhD spent nearly 30 years as a professor at Duke University researching underlying causes of chronic conditions, including discovering the immune function of the human appendix and pioneering studies on immune systems in wild animals.Discussion Points:Autism is a spectrum disorder with core symptoms like social deficits, repetitive behaviors, and aversion to new stimuli.Parker argues overwhelming evidence points to acetaminophen as the primary trigger in susceptible individuals, causing oxidative stress via toxic metabolite NAPQI.Acetaminophen, marketed as Tylenol or paracetamol, was not tested for neurodevelopmental effects in neonatal animals until 2014, despite widespread use since 1886; it's metabolized differently in babies, whose livers lack mature detox pathways.Susceptibility factors include low glutathione (an antioxidant), poor sulfation/glucuronidation metabolism, folate receptor autoantibodies, and events like immune reactions that prompt acetaminophen use during oxidative stress.Regressive autism, where children lose milestones after seeming normal, often follows acetaminophen given for fevers or illnesses, explaining parental vaccine suspicions (as shots coincide with drug use).Adult acetaminophen is generally safe but causes liver toxicity in overdoses or with alcohol; antidote is NAC to boost glutathione.Parker has suggested to policymakers that we should avoid acetaminophen during pregnancy, birth, and early childhood (under age 3-5); parents should plan ahead for fevers/pain without it, but seek medical help for unusual symptoms.*Not medical advice.Support the showAffiliates: Seed Oil Scout: Find restaurants with seed oil-free options, scan food products to see what they're hiding, with this easy-to-use mobile app. KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + electrolytes formulated for kidney health.

In his work as a psychotherapist, he has observed the profound impact of neurodiverse-NT relationships on both partners, yet the male ASD-1 perspective is often overlooked. In 2023, he began facilitating men's therapy groups specifically for ASD-1 individuals and was struck by the glaring lack of specialist support available to them. These men shared deeply about their experiences, challenges, and hopes, and he was moved by their courage and desire to connect. In this episode, Stephen highlights the stories and struggles of male ASD-1 partners, challenges the stigma they often face, and he explores how we can create safe therapeutic spaces for them to share their experience, strength, and hope. By broadening the narrative, we can foster deeper understanding and compassion in neurodiverse-NT relationships.Stephen Robertson is a Licensed Marriage, and Family Therapist (LMFT) and autistic individual (ASD-1). He offers a unique blend of lived experience and clinical expertise in supporting neurodiverse-NT couples. His work focuses on helping partners navigate the complexities of neurodiverse relationships, fostering emotional connection, and building understanding through practical tools and compassionate guidance. In 2023, Stephen launched therapy groups for ASD-1 men, uncovering an urgent need for spaces where they can safely share their struggles and strengths. These groups have become a cornerstone of his mission to empower neurodivergent men and challenge the stigma they often face in relationships.Stephen's trauma-informed, strength-based approach integrates modalities like Internal Family Systems and Emotion-Focused Therapy. He is passionate about redefining the narrative around neurodiverse relationships, celebrating their unique strengths, and helping clients create meaningful, fulfilling connections.You can contact Stephen at the link below:https://www.therapy4autisticmen.com/stephen-robertson

Systemic Maternal Inflammation and Neurodevelopment: The Role of IL-6 and IFN-γ in Autism Spectrum Disorder I just returned from Estes Park, Colorado where I presented a lecture on the Growing Brain/Mind - a tour through the underpinnings of childhood neurological changes that we call Autism. The timing is perfect for this article to be written. In an era when chronic disease in children is rising at an unprecedented pace, the search for root causes must include an honest inquiry into the conditions present during fetal development. The review article by Majerczyk and colleagues, Systemic Maternal Inflammation Promotes ASD via IL-6 and IFN-γ, brings forward a critical piece in this puzzle that I began to explore a few years ago when writing a book. It connects the dots between maternal immune dysregulation and long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes, specifically autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Through a synthesis of clinical data and animal research, the authors make a compelling case for the centrality of two inflammatory messengers, interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), in shaping fetal brain development during gestational stress. The key words here being GESTATIONAL STRESS, the recurring scientific theme for ASD development, not vaccines... and some literature reviews. Dr. M
