The dentists who look the most successful from the outside are often the ones running on fumes underneath — and almost nobody warns you how it happens. In this episode, Dr. Dave breaks down the over-identification trap that hollows out brilliant clinicians and the people who built impressive practices while forgetting to build themselves. You'll learn the two-layer foundation every practice owner needs before professional success is safe to build on top, why running a practice in 2026 takes deeper roots than it used to, and how success itself becomes the drug that shortens every high. If you've ever walked through your office carrying anxiety you couldn't quite explain, this is the episode you needed three years ago. Listen now because the foundation you skip today gets a little harder to lay every day that you wait.

What happens when a COVID-19 antiviral drug trial gets misclassified as electromagnetic field research? Today we explore a fascinating case study in how scientific databases can go wrong. I'm examining what appears to be a significant categorization error in EMF research databases -- where a clinical trial testing COVID treatments somehow ended up labeled as shark behavior research related to subsea power cables. This mix-up reveals important lessons about research integrity and the challenges of maintaining accurate scientific databases. In This Episode How the RECOVERY trial tested COVID antivirals in over one thousand patients Why proper study categorization matters for meaningful research synthesis What this teaches us about verifying research relevance before drawing conclusions Featured Study Read the full study: From subsea power cable to small-spotted catshark Scyliorhinus canicula: Behavioural effects of electromagnetic fields in tank experiments See all studies at shieldyourbody.com/research

Poles apart - and not the dancing kind! Anora won the 2024 Palme d'Or at Cannes and five out of six categories at the 2025 Academy awards including Best Original Screen Play and Best Film. Plus, it was nominated for a multitude of other awards and won its fair share. On Rotten Tomatoes it has an aggregated rating of 93%. That's impressive.  However, we disagree about What Went Right.

I’m your host, Dr. Barbara Hales. We are going to discuss why medical podcasts matter more than ever. You know, one of the questions I get asked a lot is, ” Why did you even start a podcast? And honestly, the answer has very little to do with marketing. This podcast was born out of frustration, concern, and ultimately hope, because over the years, I noticed something happening in healthcare that became impossible to ignore. Patients had more access to information than ever before, but somehow, they were becoming more confused. Doctors were exhausted. Patients felt rushed. Trust was slipping, and meaningful communication in medicine was quietly disappearing. People were turning to the internet for answers about their health, and instead of clarity, they found fear, misinformation, extreme opinions, miracle cures, and influencers posing as medical experts. At the same time, many physicians had tremendous knowledge and experience, but no real platform to explain things calmly, clearly, and humanely, and I realized something very important: education has become part of healthcare itself. That’s where this podcast came from, not from ego, not from wanting attention, but from wanting to help people think more clearly about their health, because here’s the truth: most healthcare decisions are no longer made only in the exam room. They’re being influenced on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook groups, Google searches, and yes, podcasts, which means the quality of medical communication matters enormously now, and that’s why these conversations are important.     Authenticity, Trust & How Podcasts Connect  [0:03:00] Dr. Barbara Hales  People often ask why podcasts connect so deeply with audiences. And I think the answer is simple. People are starving for authenticity. They don’t want to be talked down to. They don’t want complicated medical jargon designed to impress other doctors, and they don’t want constant fear-based headlines screaming everything you’re doing is killing you. People want honesty. They want clarity. They want someone who can explain complicated things in a calm, intelligent, understandable way. And podcasts do something unique. They allow people to hear your tone, your compassion, your thoughtful process, and your humanity, which builds trust. Sometimes, patients feel like they already know a doctor after listening to several episodes; that connection matters because medicine works best when trust exists. How do podcasts help both doctors and patients? For patients, education reduces fear when they understand their conditions, medications, risk factors, options, and the reasoning behind medical decisions; they feel empowered instead of helpless. Educated patients ask better questions. They participate more actively in their care, and in many cases, outcomes improve. But podcasts also help doctors. And I think this is something people don’t talk about enough. Many physicians went into medicine because they genuinely wanted to help people. But modern medicine can become incredibly transactional, with 15-minute appointments, endless documentation, insurance battles, burnout, and teaching. Reconnects doctors to purpose. It reminds physicians that communication itself can be healing, and honestly, sometimes one thoughtful conversation can help more people than an entire week of rushed office visits when podcasts disagree, then what?     When Podcasts Disagree & How Patients Should Respond  [0:07:00] Dr. Barbara Hales  Well, here’s where things get interesting. Patients will often hear two podcasts with opposite opinions. One says, Never eat carbohydrates. Another says plant-based nutrition is the answer. One says, Take this supplement. Another says that the supplement is useless. So how is the average person supposed to know who’s right first? Don’t panic. Different opinions in medicine do not automatically mean someone is evil or incompetent. Medicine is not mathematics. It involves science, clinical judgment, individual differences, risk-versus-benefit decisions, and evolving research. Reasonable experts can disagree, but patients need a framework for evaluating what they hear. So what should patients do? First? Never make major health decisions based on one podcast episode. A podcast should educate you. It should not replace personalized medical care. Second, be cautious of people who sound certain about everything. Real medicine usually contains nuance. If someone says this works for everyone, doctors are hiding the truth, or this cures everything, that should raise concern. Good Medicine acknowledges limitations, exceptions, uncertainty, and individuality. The third look at motivation is the person educating you or selling fear, because fear has become a business model online, and frightened people click very quickly. Now, let me tell you a story that beautifully shows how Podcasts can actually help patients when handled thoughtfully.     Success Story: Awareness, Not Self‑Diagnosis  [0:11:00] Dr. Barbara Hales  A woman in her late 50s had been listening to several health podcasts to improve her overall wellness. One episode discussed early warning signs of heart disease in women, not dramatic movie style, symptoms, subtle ones, fatigue, shortness of breath, jaw discomfort, exercise intolerance, and she realized she had quietly been experiencing several of those symptoms for months now. Here’s the important part: she didn’t panic. She didn’t diagnose herself online. She didn’t start taking random supplements. Instead, she used the information intelligently. She scheduled an appointment with her physician and said I heard a discussion that made me wonder if I should get evaluated. Her doctor took it seriously. Testing eventually revealed significant coronary artery disease. She needed intervention, and afterward, she said something incredibly powerful. The podcast didn’t save my life because it gave me treatment. It saved my life because it gave me awareness. That’s exactly what responsible medical education should do, not replace doctors, not create fear, but encourage thoughtful action.     Cautionary Tale, Confidence vs. Credibility & The True Purpose  [0:15:00] Dr. Barbara Hales  But now let me tell you the other side: a younger woman became convinced by several online personalities that all prescription medications were toxic. One podcast after another reinforced the same message: natural healing, only doctors overprescribe. You don’t need medication. So, without consulting her physician, she abruptly stopped her blood pressure medication. She felt proud, at first, empowered, like she had taken control, but several weeks later, her blood pressure skyrocketed, she developed severe headaches, dizziness, and eventually ended up in the emergency room with dangerously elevated blood pressure. Thankfully, she recovered. Others who do that wind up stroking out. But afterward, she admitted. Something important, I confused confidence with credibility, and that sentence stuck with me because sounding confident online does not automatically mean someone is correct. What is the real purpose of medical podcasts? The best medical podcasts do not demand blind trust. They encourage critical thinking. A good podcast should help patients ask better questions, recognize misinformation, feel calmer, and become partners in their health care. The goal should never be, believe me, blindly. The goal should be to become informed enough to make wiser decisions. That’s a very different mission. So, if today’s conversation helped you see healthcare a little more clearly, share this episode with someone who may need it too, because informed patients and connected doctors create better medicine for everyone, and honestly, that’s exactly why this podcast exists. I’ll see you next time. This has been another episode of marketing tips for doctors with your host, Dr Barbara Hales. Till next time. The post Restoring Trust in Medicine first appeared on The Medical Strategist.

Are Big Money BYU Sports Compatible with LDS Church Mission? Dr. Matthew Bowman, co-author of “Game Changers,” zeroes in on the ultimate tension in modern collegiate sports: can you balance God, Mammon, and big money athletics? As BYU integrates into the lucrative Big 12 conference, the historic values of amateurism are directly clashing with the pursuit of NBA stardom. https://youtu.be/SZssRvBGiCM Gospel Tangents NEWSLETTER: https://gospeltangents.com/newsletter  Don't miss our other discussions with Matthew. https://gospeltangents.com/people/matthew-bowman Copyright © 2026 Gospel Tangents All Rights Reserved The Kevin Young Factor While millions of dollars and family-friendly environments played a huge role in landing top recruit AJ Dybantsa, his third reason for choosing BYU was head coach Kevin Young. Young left a highly promising coaching career in the NBA to come to Provo, bringing invaluable professional connections with him. During a recruiting pitch, Young even pulled out his phone, called NBA superstar Kevin Durant—whom he coached in Phoenix—and handed the phone directly to Dybantsa. Young is explicitly selling recruits on his ability to get them to the NBA, cementing college sports as a professional stepping stone. Cautionary Tale of Jimmer Fredette Matt contrasts this new era of “one-and-done” recruits with the legacy of Jimmer Fredette. Bowman describes Fredette as a player built for the traditional amateur college game who was unfairly pushed into the modern “massive media industrial complex” that demands individual celebrity. Unlike Danny Ainge, who thrived by fitting into a cooperative team system and sharing the ball, Fredette was forced to carry the entire team on his back. This intense pressure to be a singular, massive celebrity ultimately did him a disservice when he reached the NBA, making him a cautionary tale of how modern sports media can chew players up. God vs. Mammon on the Hardwood: Is this massive influx of money compatible with BYU’s mission? Bowman argues there is no easy answer. On one hand, church leaders like Henry Eyring have previously expressed that a successful football team acts as a powerful missionary tool. On the other hand, the millions of dollars involved shift the focus away from the character-building, cooperative origins of the sport. Today, the game is increasingly about individual stardom and financial gain, causing significant tension with the university’s spiritual goals. Will BYU Ever Drop Athletics? Given this tension, a popular rumor suggests that future church leaders might eventually eliminate BYU’s sports programs entirely, mirroring the decision made years ago to drop athletics at Ricks College (now BYU-Idaho). However, Bowman believes this is highly unlikely. The financial momentum of BYU athletics is simply too powerful to stop. Between Big 12 television money and the sheer influence of massive donor groups—BYU’s NIL collective, the “Royal Blue,” is reportedly the second-largest in the country behind Kentucky—eliminating the sports programs would result in intense backlash from wealthy boosters.

In case you haven't heard... carl's a mess! This week we're unpacking the Amanda and West situation- why it was never a surprise, what it says about identity (or the lack of it), and why being hot and progressive doesn't make a man any less of a problem. Host Meg Reynolds then ties this back to her own experiences with men: why they come back, what they're actually after when they do, and why the open-book test of how women want to be loved keeps getting failed.

We watched the chilling new sci-fi thriller, Mercy (2026) on Amazon Prime MGM. Honestly? It is the most realistic and genuinely scary depiction we have ever seen of how AI might completely dismantle or "fix" our communities. We discuss how Mercy moves past generic tech-horror and takes a nuanced approach. It shows the obvious positives: a 90% drop in capital crime, unparalleled efficiency, and an objective justice system. But it simultaneously explores the terrifying grey area: the end of privacy, automated executions based on probability, and how easily a perfect algorithm can be weaponized by imperfect humans. We're breaking down why the movie argues that humanity's "judgement" requires intuition that can never be programmed, and why this is an essential watch for 2026.

The stock market has cooled on stocks caught up in the whirlwind of artificial intelligence. Fears over whether AI will disrupt a variety of sectors have triggered big sell-offs. Morningstar equity analysts have investigated 132 companies to determine whether that's the case. They have concluded that AI is not a universal destroyer. The team thinks investors should sort through the wreckage and find newly cheap companies with enduring competitive advantages. Eric Compton, director of equity research for the technology sector at Morningstar, tells you where to look.

Claudette Fette, Ph. D., is an occupational therapist focused on supporting youth, families, and people living with mental illness. She teaches about mental health at Texas Woman's University School of Occupational Therapy and continues to be active supporting mental health initiatives at local, state and national levels. She has written about mental health for professional journals and contributed to books on the subject. She currently serves on advisories for the National Family Support Technical Assistance Center and the Advancing School Mental Health conference.No Saints Here presents Claudette Fette and her son Aaron's experiences as a cautionary tale while offering better alternatives based on Claudette's years as a scholar and therapist. They share their hard lessons to encourage us to reject ignorance and accelerate the development of a smarter, healthier culture for generations to follow.Aaron Fette lived with mental illness all his life. At age 15, he envisioned himself as a modern-day Jack Kerouac, living an adventure on the road that he would chronicle in his writing. Instead, after numerous ineffective interventions, he found himself fleeing from paranoid delusions that drove him from city to city. As a victim of abuse, a drug addict and alcoholic, and as a survivor of the US justice system, Aaron's story offers a unique perspective on some of the thorniest issues in our society today. He died of an opioid overdose in a homeless encampment under Interstate 35 in Fort Worth, Texas, on April 2, 2017. His mother, Claudette, now an occupational therapist and college professor, weaves her son's story into an examination of the critical crossroads in education, mental health and the judicial system — and offers families in crisis a guide for navigating the often-arcane services. Find Dr. Claudette Fette: Facebook: @claudettefetteInstagram: @claudette.fetteBluesky: @claudettefette.bsky.social

We're back! In the most unlikely of relaunch subjects, Jake explores powerful lessons from the dramatic collapse of Crumbs Bake Shop—a company that grew from a single Manhattan storefront to 50 locations and $66 million in revenue, only to go bankrupt within years.

James Clyburn joins Margaret Hoover to talk about “The First Eight,” his recent book about the eight Black South Carolinians who served in Congress before him and why their stories still matter.During reconstruction after the Civil War, South Carolina sent eight Black men to Congress. After the last of them left office in 1897, it would be 95 years before the ninth–Clyburn–was elected in 1992.
