Sarah is having another medical situation, and this time Susie is blaming all of her wild outlaw habits lately. Susie explains why Gen Z insists on using all lower case letters, and we're wondering if the kids are alright. We discuss the Surviving Black Hawk Down documentary, and the ways the government, society, and media paint a picture of the United States as the "good guy," but often it's just a matter of perspective. We talk about a brain surgeon who describes the ways our brains lie to us about our "selfhood," identity, and free will, and why things may not be what they seem when it comes to how we see ourselves. We hear about the Sly Stone documentary that looks at the idea of "Black genius," and the price Black artists and thinkers can pay because of their incredible talent and the pressures of success. Susie's favorite scams are by the Chinese, but this time, it's not a zoo, it's a tourist attraction that is truly phoning their scam in and it's hilarious. We learn about a child influencer who is making a splash in the restaurant world with his mission to bring honor to the classic mocktail beverage, the Shirley Temple. Plus, we hear why YouTube's branding doesn't really match how people are using its infrastructure.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comJoin our Candy Club, shop our merch, sign-up for our free newsletter, & more by visiting The Brain Candy Podcast website: https://www.thebraincandypodcast.comConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSponsors:Visit https://cozyearth.com and use our exclusive 40% off code BRAINCANDYVisit https://www.carawayhome.com/BRAINCANDY to take an additional 10% off your next purchase.Control Body Odor ANYWHERE with @lumedeodorant and get 15% off with promo code BRAINCANDY15 at https://lumepodcast.com/BRAINCANDY15 #lumepodSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Thanks to the years and years spent poring over textbooks to study the inner workings of the brain, the high level of manual dexterity required to perform operations and the mental pressures that come with taking patients' lives in your hands, there can be little doubt the journey to becoming a brain surgeon is one of the most challenging any of us can embark upon. So, what exactly does it take to become a successful brain surgeon and what does the day-to-work reality look like when the years of training are finally complete? In this episode, we catch up Theodore H Schwartz, professor of neurosurgery based at Weill Cornell Medical Center, to talk about his new book Gray Matters: A Biography of Brain Surgery. He tells us about his own personal journey to become an in-demand surgeon, what it's like to work in one of New York's busiest hospitals, and the surprising crossover between brain surgery and learning how to play an instrument.

That on the West side of Northern Africa and borders Senegal, Mali, and Algeria. He's been in America for two decades and is married to an American woman. He said if he didn't have children he would have left to go back to Mauritania years ago. It's impossible to make a living with the cost of living in the US. He said that Biden has been a DISASTER. He said in Mauritania people are seriously poor. Not like the poor in America who have NO idea about real poverty. He said that many Africans are going back home.

Angela interviews Dr. Rahul Jandial about the fascinating topic of dreaming from a scientific perspective. Dr. Jandial, a brain surgeon and neuroscientist, delves into the intricate workings of the brain during sleep and dreaming, exploring the connection between waking life experiences and dream content, and highlighting the importance of understanding the brain's transition between executive and imagination networks. KEY TAKEAWAYS The brain needs to dream to stay fine-tuned, imaginative, and maximally adaptive. It is not just a glitch but a necessary process for the brain to function at its best. The transitional states of sleep exit and sleep entry are fascinating liminal zones where the brain toggles between executive network function and imaginative network function. These states can be rich with creative ideas and solutions. Techniques for inducing lucid dreaming, such as waking up an hour before the usual time and then trying to fall back asleep while maintaining awareness, can increase the chances of experiencing lucid dreams. Engaging in divergent thinking, which involves creative and imaginative ideation, can lead to fresh ideas and solutions. This type of thinking is essential for creativity and problem-solving. BEST MOMENTS "I believe at some fundamental level that we sleep because we must dream. And that that's the essential feature of the human brain that's taking place during a period we call sleep." "It's really interesting what you say about divergent focus and just like how you can become more creative and things and tap into that." "I see dreaming as more of a high-intensity training for the brain, engaging all these different emotions and recesses that wouldn't happen with the routines of our day." “It's not physically that we get forced to sleep, the brain will force us to sleep."

Have you ever woken up from a vivid dream and wondered about its meaning? Or perhaps questioned the purpose of dreaming altogether? It's certainly a fascinating topic and one which I have never covered before on my podcast. This week, I'm delighted to welcome back Dr Rahul Jandial, a dual-trained neurosurgeon and neurobiologist. He is an expert in brain health, a world-renowned brain surgeon who routinely undertakes complex cancer operations and he's also the author of the brand-new book, ‘This is Why You Dream: What Your Sleeping Brain Reveals About Your Waking Life'. During our conversation, Rahul explains his belief, that we sleep, in order to dream. When we are asleep, our brains are not resting but instead shift into a different state where areas linked to imagination and creativity become more active. While dreams remain a largely unexplained phenomenon, Rahul shares his insights into common dream themes, the importance of dreams in childhood brain development, and the highly personal nature of dream interpretation. He also covers practical techniques for remembering dreams, the concept of lucid dreaming, the potential links between dreaming and future brain health, and also shares some profound insights about the brain at the time of death. Throughout our conversation, Rahul emphasises that although dreams have captivated humans for centuries, they remain a mysterious and intensely personal aspect of our lives. However, if we approach our dreams with curiosity, they have the potential to gift us valuable insights about the contents of our minds and our emotions. The topic of dreams clearly resonates with many of you - I received over 1,000 comments and questions about dreams when I announced this upcoming episode on my Instagram page. And, I'm happy to say that Rahul answers some of these questions throughout our discussion, offering his unique perspective as both a neuroscientist and a neurosurgeon. So whether you're a vivid dreamer or someone who rarely remembers their dreams, this episode offers a captivating glimpse into our sleeping minds. Support the podcast and enjoy Ad-Free episodes.

Lisa continues the interview today with our guest, Dr. Gary Simonds, a retired neurosurgeon who's treated tens of thousands of patients. Today he talks about burnout in the healthcare system, especially during and after Covid. He explains how we are all constantly depositing or withdrawing energy from our energy bank. When are not replenishing, we can get burnt out. We may feel like we are not contributing. Dr. Simonds has worked with world experts researching physician burnout and our healthcare system. He suggests how stillness and meditation are very beneficial to everyone. Dr. Simonds also describes what the brain actually looks like, its blood supply, and its need for constant oxygen. He talks about how social isolation impairs brain function. It is so important to seek out community. He further discusses the importance of sleep and rest for a healthy brain, and how mindfulness can provide a sense of balance as it can change the brain alignment.  He stresses the importance of keeping a positive attitude and focusing on resilience. Dr. Simonds suggests practicing gratitude and asks us to think of 3 things we are grateful for throughout the day. He explains how our brains actually have a different chemical reaction when looking for the positive. He suggests considering uplifting material or realizing something as simple as a smile. Sometimes we need to force ourselves to look for the positive. As a neurosurgeon, doctors typically look for the worst-case scenario, so they can plan in advance if something goes wrong. He talks about consciously directing thoughts toward possibilities and solutions. Dr. Simonds, as an expert neurosurgeon, also discusses how to deliver difficult news, while managing expectations.  He's had to do it so many times, with many patients and families.

Dr Sheri Dewan is on the show today, a full-time, board-certified neurosurgeon practicing in Chicago, who is one of roughly 200 board-certified women neurosurgeons in the United States. And today we're talking about her journey into neurosurgery, that's she's penned in a fantastic book “Cutting a Path”.And despite the very specific experience of her journey to becoming a specialist surgeon in a male dominated field, battling gender and ethnic barriers, her story is one that I think many people can connect with. Being a medic, a mother, a mentor and a human. Sheri shares the highs and tragedies of her work whilst juggling her role outside the hospital. She gives us an insight into her coping strategies that she's developed throughout her career, including that of mindful moments, yoga and even manifesting. (something that I thought to be quite unusual and that challenges the preconception of the stoic neurosurgeon who has hardened themselves to the reality of the job and removes the emotion from their day to day)I hope you leave todays conversation feeling inspired to do your own work on continually questioning purpose and practicing reflection as a blueprint for both working and living more fully.You can find Dr Sheri Dewans book in all good bookstores, it's a wonderfully honest and refreshing read that I thoroughly enjoyed!(Trigger Warning : We mention child bereavement on the show today)https://www.childbereavementuk.org/ (08000288840)
