Check the website here: http://enlites.com/ Dr. Michael Petraglia is Director of the Australian Research Centre for Human Evolution at Griffith University, Australia. His research has centered on a range of subjects concerning human evolution, including the evolution of cognition, the evolution of behavior, and the relations between climate change and hominin dispersals. In this episode, we start by talking about what we know prior to the speciation of Homo sapiens. We discuss whether H. sapiens arose in one single location in Africa or multiple locations, the environments we have evolved in, and migrations within Africa. We talk about technological changes, symbolism, and sociality in H. sapiens, what we know about out-of-Africa migrations, and issues with hypotheses based on coastal movements. We also talk about the effects of climate change on human dispersals, the hominin species we interacted and interbred with, and the biggest missing pieces in the history of human dispersals. Finally, we discuss whether lessons of the past can tell us anything about humanity today. -- A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, HANS FREDRIK SUNDE, BERNARDO SEIXAS, OLAF ALEX, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, FILIP FORS CONNOLLY, DAN DEMETRIOU, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, DIEGO LONDOÑO CORREA, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, EDWARD HALL, HEDIN BRØNNER, DOUGLAS FRY, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, PAUL-GEORGE ARNAUD, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ANTON ERIKSSON, CHARLES MOREY, ALEX CHAU, AMAURI MARTÍNEZ, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

Why do humans have wisdom teeth if so many of them get removed soon after they appear?Wisdom teeth, the third molars in the back of our mouths, are so called because they normally appear in late teenage, early adulthood – the time in life we supposedly have learned some wisdom. But around 25% of people don't develop all four. Of those that do emerge, it is not uncommon for them to appear at nasty angles, jutting into the tooth next door causing potentially dangerous infections and pain. Because of this, for decades many people have them surgically removed. Listener Khaleel was preparing to have his remaining wisdom teeth removed when he wrote to CrowdScience to ask about them. Given that they can seem to cause more harm than good, why has evolution resulted in these troublesome teeth? But many people have perfectly uneventful relationships with their wisdom teeth, so have we perhaps removed more than we needed to over the years?Anand Jagatia chews it over with the help of surgeons and dentists to try to extract the truth – why DO we have wisdom teeth?Featuring: Tanya M Smith, Professor in the Australian Research Centre for Human Evolution at Griffith University, Australia Patrick Magennis, Consultant Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon at University Hospitals Aintree, Liverpool UK Verena Toedtling, Dentist and Specialist Oral Surgeon, UKPresented by Anand Jagatia Produced by Alex Mansfield
Welcome to another iteration of the Monday Breakfast show, presented and produced by Rob Harrison and Grace Tan. This week we bring you four segments from across the spectrum of radical news. As Israel's genocidal conquest of Palestine continues to play out, the ways in which governments and companies all over the globe are complicit are simultaneously becoming transparent. One of those companies can be found right here in so-called melbourne. They're known as HTA Global. Rob spoke with Liz from Renegade Activists to talk about how. Come along to protest HTA Global's involvement in Israel's genocide of Palestinians on 11AM this Friday the 9th of February at 43B Lara Way, Campbellfield.Following that interview we revisited Grace's interview from last week's show with Dr Adrian Farrugia, Senior Research Fellow in the Drugs, Gender and Sexuality program at the Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society at La Trobe University. They discussed whether pill testing is the answer to reducing harm of drug use and Australian youth drug education. We then played a speech by Uncle Robbie Thorpe, a fellow 3CR presenter. at yesterday's Free Palestine rally. You can catch him on the Bunjil's Fire show every Wednesday from 11am to 2pm. Rallies for a Free Palestine are ongoing every Sunday at 12pm at the State Library, please continue to show up for the people of Palestine.

In this week's jampacked show Rob and Grace bring you segments covering the Webb Dock picket and policing of it, how pill testing could reduce harm, as well as extra-judicial killings of unionists in the Philippines. We start off with Stick Together's Jiselle Hanna interview with Elmer Labog, General Secretary of the Kilusang Mayo Uno, the militant union federation in the Philippines, about trade unionists in the Philippines that are being targeted by the Marcos Jr administration and are being extra-judicially executed in order to prevent their organising attempts.

We discuss whether pill testing is the answer to reducing harm of drug use and Australian youth drug education.Sophie, a legal observer from Melbourne Activist Legal Support (MALS), speaks with Rob about the statement of concern published by MALS regarding the policing at the Webb Dock picket. After several days of picketing the Webb Dock to stop a Zim container ship in solidarity with Palestine, the picket was broken up by police using pepper spray and other coercive methods. The Melbourne Activist Legal Support's full statement of concern can be found on their website.Lastly, we heard Thursday Breakfast's Inez Winters' discussion with Declan Furber Gillick, an Aboriginal writer, political organiser and representative of the Black Peoples Union about the Webb Dock picket.

There is undoubtedly a dark side to dick pics, such as when they're sent without consent or used as a form of harassment. However, when shared consensually, there's a positive side worth acknowledging. This is the second part in a 2-part series on the psychology of dick pics. In the last episode, we talked all about the dominant (and negative) narratives we hear in the popular media about these photos. So, today, we're going to talk about the rarely discussed positive side of consensual dick pics, as well as what makes for a good dick pic in the first place (hint: put a little effort into it!). I am joined once again by Dr. Andrea Waling, a Senior Research Fellow at the Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health, and Society at La Trobe University. Her current research project, Men, Sex and Intimacy, explores how young, heterosexual men in Australia are navigating and negotiating intimacy, sex, sexual health and consent in wake of #MeToo politics. Her latest book is titled Exploring the Cultural Phenomenon of the Dick Pic. Some of the questions we discuss in this episode include: What does it mean to think about dick pics reparatively? How can dick pics be an avenue to intimacy? What do women say are the qualities of a good dick pic? How can dick pics help men construct a positive sense of self? If you're thinking about sending a dick pic to someone, what do you need to know? To learn more, check out Andrea's website and stay connected on Twitter and Linkedin.

One of the most popular posts I've ever written on the Sex and Psychology blog was about why so many men send unsolicited dick pics to women. At the time, there wasn't much research on the subject, but the data suggested that guys who do this are either clueless or narcissistic (or worse). This has fed a growing (and extreme) online narrative that all dick pics are bad, even when they're sent consensually. So let's take a closer look at the dick pic. I have a two-part series for you about the science of dick picks. In this show, we're going to focus on the cultural history of the dick pic and the four most common narratives we hear about dick pics in the media. Next time, we're going to talk about a new way of thinking about dick pics, as well as their positive side when shared consensually. My guest is Dr. Andrea Waling, a Senior Research Fellow at the Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health, and Society at La Trobe University. Her current research project, Men, Sex and Intimacy, explores how young, heterosexual men in Australia are navigating and negotiating intimacy, sex, sexual health and consent in wake of #MeToo politics. Her latest book is titled Exploring the Cultural Phenomenon of the Dick Pic. Some of the questions we discuss in this episode include: Why write a whole book all about dick pics? How do you secure government funding for research when you're doing the "dirty work" of studying sex? How has the cultural history of the penis shaped modern attitudes towards it? What are the four themes about why men send dick pics that dominate academic work and public discourse? Are dick pics always a form of harassment? Are men who send dick pics narcissists?

World Pride is in full swing in Sydney and it's an opportunity to highlight the importance of positive experiences of healthcare for the LGBTQI+ community. Those positive experiences are badly needed as research shows that bad healthcare experiences can be a risk factor for suicidality, but good experiences are very much protective of mental health. “We found that having affirming experiences within health and medical settings was a strong protective factor,” Teddy Cook, Director of Community Health at ACON, told TMR's Tea Room podcast. “That's an important call to action for GPs. Affirming someone within your practice is a strong protective factor against suicidality and suicide attempts, which is pretty motivating. “I think sometimes we get a little bit overwhelmed with the idea of what affirming someone means. It really just means recognising someone for who they are, and respecting that. It doesn't have to be more complicated ... really hearing who they are, and then responding to that appropriately makes a massive difference. It really does.” That doesn't mean flying a rainbow flag in your waiting room is enough, however. Natalie Amos, a research officer at the Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society at La Trobe University, was a co-author of the research. “We've heard participants say they tried to access healthcare that said it was inclusive, but [the practitioners] ‘knew nothing about how to treat or affirm my identity',” she told TMR. Research, notably, does not support that being trans is in itself a risk factor for suicidality, but that discrimination, harassment and assault are. There is no lack of training available for GPs who are interested in providing trans and gender-affirming care. “There is certainly lots of training available, more is coming, and it's about making sure that GPs are aware of it and where to access it,” said Teddy Cook. “The data from our paper tells us unequivocally, that when people can have a good experience within a healthcare setting of inclusive and affirming practice there are better outcomes ... and are able to have a higher quality of life, move through the world in a safe, affirmed way and feel respected as who they are. “A GP has a key role in all of that.” Hosted on Acast.

We talk to Adrian Farrugia from the Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society, La Trobe University. Adrian's research focuses on opioid overdose and take-home naloxone, experiences of hepatitis C treatment, and young people's drug consumption and drug education. And he is currently researching the uptake and experiences of hepatitis C treatment in Australia. This qualitative project collects the stories of people affected by hepatitis C to understand the meanings of treatment and identify impediments to uptake in an era focused on elimination.
Marked annually on August 31, International Overdose Awareness Day 2021 is the world's largest annual campaign to end overdose. As the event's website explains, the day is an opportunity to ‘remember without stigma those who have died and acknowledge the grief of the family and friends left behind.' International Overdose Awareness Day 2021 is a time to remember and, importantly, a time to act. To mark the occasion, the DruGS team hosted an online discussion focussed on recent legislative changes in Victoria aimed at supporting the health and wellbeing of people who consume drugs. While a range of issues were covered some key topics include the: • Recent changes to regulation of the overdose reversal drug naloxone; • Recent decriminalisation of peer distribution of new injecting equipment and; • Limits of the recent changes and other ambitious reform goals for the sector. The discussants were Mr Sione Crawford, Executive Officer of Harm Reduction Victoria, Ms Jane Dicka, Health Promotion Team Coordinator, Harm Reduction Victoria and DruGS team member Associate Professor Kate Seear, Lead of the Gender, Law and Drugs (GLaD) program at the Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society, La Trobe University. The discussion was facilitated by DruGS team members Dr Renae Fomiatti and Dr Adrian Farrugia, Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society, La Trobe University. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For every voice decrying the evils of pornography, there's another that says it's healthy, part of our freedom of expression, “sex positive”! So, which is it? LINKS This epidoe of Undeceptions is brought to you by Zondervan's new commentary on the book of Exodus by Christopher Wright. Meet our guest, Melinda Tankard Reist, and find out more about the Collective Shout Movement that she founded. Meet our other guests, Professor William Struthers and Simon Camilleri Read more on the protest of the 70,000 Korean women who held banners shouting 'My life is not your porn' in 2018 after a spike in the number of spycams found in female bathrooms. Read the New York Times explosive investigative report 'The Children of Pornhub', published in December 2020. In response to the NYT report, Mastercard and Visa withdrew their cooperation with Pornhub later that month. Read Melinda Tankard Reist's book, Big Porn Inc: Exposing the Harms of the Global Porn Industry Here's the research John Dickson lists off in this episode on pornography: A study by the Australian Research Centre in Sex Health and Society said it found that pornography enabled sexual confidence and positive community formation, especially for LGBTIQ+ people. A 2007 study published in the American Journal of Medicine found that the sex lives of 18 million men over age 20 were negatively affected due to excessive porn viewing. A recent study by the Kinsey Institute showed that people who use technology for sexting or webcamming gained a sense of emotional connection as well as sexual gratification from this contact. In a study conducted at the Max Planck Institute for Human Development in Berlin, researchers discovered a significant association between reported pornography hours per week and gray matter volume in the human brain, and a drop in reactivity to sexual cues. A study published in the Archives of Sexual Behaviour looking at Norwegian use of pornography found that couples who use pornography together tended to enjoy a more permissive erotic climate. But where only one person in the couple did, men who used porn were likely to experience problems with arousal, and women who used porn were likely to have increased negative self perception. In February 2021 in Australia, a former Sydney schoolgirl launched a petition calling for ‘sexual consent education' to be taught much earlier in schools. In this opinion piece, a high school teacher argues that 'Hardcore porn is to blame for disturbing teenage sex culture' This 'TraffickingHub' online petition to shutdown Pornhub has over 2 million signatures. Here's a [safe] link with more information on Pornhub's traffic numbers. Sexual health research stresses the ‘bonding hormones' released with sexual encounters. Check out this with Australian sex researcher, Dr Patricia Weerakoon on this subject. C. S. Lewis, the great Oxford literary don and public advocate of Christianity, once defended the biblical approach to sex against the call in his day (the 1940s) for more sexual ‘freedom'. His insights are as relevant today as then: I know some muddleheaded Christians have talked as if Christianity thought that sex, or the body, or pleasure, were bad in themselves. But they were wrong. Christianity is almost the only one of the great religions which thoroughly approves of the body—which believes that matter is good, that God himself once took on a human body, that some kind of body is going to be given to us even in heaven and is going to be an essential part of our happiness, our beauty and our energy. Christianity has glorified marriage more than any other religion: and nearly all the greatest love poetry in the world has been produced by Christians. If anyone says that sex, in itself, is bad, Christianity contradicts him at once … There is nothing to be ashamed of in enjoying your food: there would be everything to be ashamed of if half the world made food the main interest of their lives and spent their time looking at pictures of food and dribbling and smacking their lips. I do not say that you and I are individually responsible for the present situation. Our ancestors have handed over to us organisms which are warped in this respect: and we grow up surrounded by propaganda in favour of unchastity. There are people who want to keep our sex instinct inflamed in order to make money out of us. Because, of course, a man with an obsession is a man who has very little sales-resistance. God knows our situation; He will not judge us as if we had no difficulties to overcome. (C. S. Lewis, Mere Christianity. HarperCollins, 1997, 81-82)
While the whole world is focused on defeating COVID-19, it seems Aussies have become complacent when it comes to protecting ourselves against other diseases, which has led to a series of recent Syphilis outbreaks in Melbourne. But this isn't the only sexually transmitted infection that is on the rise in both our cities and regional areas. The Quicky speaks to two experts, and a mother who only found out she had an STI when she became pregnant, to find out why so many of us are being infected and often don't realise it until many years later when the damage has already been done.

Former Sydney private school girl Chanel Contos has helped thousands of people share their horrific experiences of sexual assault by fellow pupils, which has prompted a petition calling for sex and consent education to be taught at a younger age. The Quicky examines why at even some of the most elite schools this continues to be a devastating problem for young people, and what we can do to bring about positive change in attitudes and behaviours.

31 August is International Overdose Awareness Day. For Part 2 of this special episode to mark the occasion, we spoke to researchers Renae Fomiatti and Adrian Farrugia, from the Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society at Latrobe University, about two of their recent projects, Overdose Lifesavers and Further Perspectives on Alcohol, which focus on Naloxone and heavy drinking, respectively. You can learn more about both projects at livesofsubstance.org This was a particularly relevant conversation given Naloxone's capacity to prevent opioid overdoses, and the often-overlooked role of alcohol as a significant contributor to overdose deaths. As you’ll hear, Adrian and Renae’s work also puts consumers centre-stage and considers their drug use in a broader context, helping to counteract stigma and resist reductive stereotypes. Be sure also to check out Part 1, which features remembrances by our listeners of loved ones lost to overdose. The show is brought to you by the Association of Participating Service Users (APSU), which is a service of the Self Help Addiction Resource Centre (SHARC). APSU is a Victorian consumer body that believes the voices of people with lived experience of AOD issues should be heard and incorporated into service design and delivery.

This May 28th, 2020 has been declared the inaugural ‘LGBTI Domestic Violence Awareness Day’. Intimate partner violence is reported at similar rates in same gender relationships to heterosexual relationships. While some studies have found even higher rates, particularly for bisexual women and trans and gender diverse people. However, given that the LGBTIQ community has struggled to gain equal legal and social recognition of their relationships, acknowledging that Domestic Violence can also occur within these requires nuanced community and service sector education. Joining the podcast to talk about this are two people very engaged in this area in Victoria, Matthew Parsons & Russell Vickery. Matthew Parsons is the Manager, Education and Strategic Development at Rainbow Health Victoria within The Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health & Society (ARCSHS), at La Trobe University. Matthew is one of Australia’s leading specialists in LGBTQ experiences of intimate partner and family of origin violence. Matthew leads the delivery of LGBTQ domestic violence and inclusive practice training to mainstream domestic violence services across Victoria, and has driven LGBTQ domestic violence public educational projects and media campaigns through producing and directing the innovative educational theatre piece “My Other Closet the Cabaret”. Russell Vickery is a banker by day and a musical performer and community advocate and educator by night. Russ is passionate about dispelling the myths surrounding Domestic Violence and advocating for survivors. He is the LGBTIQ representative on the Victorian government’s Victim Survivor Advisory Council and star of “My Other Closet the Cabaret”, turning his lived-experience of surviving a violent and abusive gay relationship in to a vehicle for change. Regularly appearing on stage and in media interviews telling (& singing) his story, Russ was notably the first queer survivor of DV to share their story on national Australian television when he appeared on ABC TV’s “You Can’t Ask That” last year.

Something to get you thinking today. I'm talking to Dr Madeline Fernbach, Australian Clinical Psychologist with expertise and a passion for working with the transgender and gender fluid community.Madeline is fascinated by identity and the way people see themselves. She explains in this episode that during her awkward middle teenage years she drifted at the fringes of many social groups. Without a fixed groups of friend until later in her life she developed an interest in what makes humans belong - or not belong - in groups.This is interest drove her to complete a PhD on the topic, after which she began work at the Australian Research Centre for Sex, Health And Society at Latrobe University. Throughout her career she has been involved in sexual health and identity research, and in the last five years these interests have coalesced, leading her to specialise in supporting the transgender community.She says, 'The best part of my job is talking about identity and providing support so that people can take control of their lives in ways that are consistent with who they are.'In this episode Madeline and I discuss:What identity is and how it relates to gender.Social identity theory and the sense of self we get from the groups we belong to.The importance of authenticity for our wellbeing.How our mental health is affected when there is a gap between our public and private selves.The Genderbread Person. What is it and how does it help us to understand the many facets of gender?The fascinating, complex nature of gender and how we express it.Madeline's tips for individuals and families grappling with gender and identity.This is a really thoughtful, insightful and frank interview that might get you thinking about your identity, your personal and public personas and what it means to you to live a truly authentic life.
In episode 24, we explore some of the ways that people can treat erectile dysfunction without medication. There has been significant research conducted on those diagnosed with erectile dysfunction (ED). Many of those treatments include prescription medication, however there are also alternative options available. To discuss the variety of treatments for ED, we spoke with Dr. Richard Wassersug. About Our Guest Dr. Richard Wassersug is an Honorary Professor at the University of British Columbia and also an Adjunct Professor at the Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society, LaTrobe University. He’s worked in a wide variety of fields from the biology of frogs, to space biology, and human sexuality. Most of his research now is in psychology and health. For ten years, he was a columnist on the TV science news show “Daily Planet” as well as “Scientist-in-Residence” for an additional five years for the Canadian Discovery Channel. Don’t Miss This Week’s Foreplay… A new survey of 2,000 US women by Cosmopolitan magazine found that 70 percent of millennials who have used the pill have stopped taking it or thought about stopping in for the past three years. Instead of the pill, many women have turned to smartphone apps to help track their fertility. Some of the more popular apps include, Natural Cycles ($79.99/year), MyFLO ($1.99), Clue (free with in-app purchases), and AskTia (free). While these apps can be a great alternative for people who do not wish to alter their body’s hormone levels, they still do not offer the effectiveness that medical birth control or condoms offer. Afterglow While some people identify as asexual or demisexual (requiring an emotional attraction before feeling sexual attraction), a term for the opposite phenomenon has been coined. Megasexuals are people who require a strong sexual attraction or connection before they find themselves able to experience emotional attraction to someone.
