This chemical was banned in Europe 20 years ago...so why is it in the tap water of over 40 million Americans? In this episode, Doctor Chris Motley breaks down what the research found on frogs exposed to Atrazine and what this means for you. The company that makes this herbicide went to great pains to keep this research hidden, but in this episode you'll learn how it can get into drinking water, the possible hormonal effects and - crucially - how you can keep your body safe from pesticides with a few simple steps and an assist from old medicine like TCM. Dr. Motley's recommendations: Get your water checked - This website provides some options: https://shorturl.at/cVi2F, and you can enter your zip code here for FREE info: https://shorturl.at/sXHO4 Filter your water (consider reverse osmosis if you're interested). Carbon block and reverse osmosis remove most atrazine from drinking water - https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envpol.2023.122936 If you find chemicals like Atrazine in your water, you'll want to support the body's filtering organs according to Chinese Medicine - your liver and kidneys. TCM in chronic kidney disease -  https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9340222/ Here's How to Do That: Nothing complicated: drink cups of Dandelion tea, milk thistle or Chrysanthemum tea. Take cranberry juice with D-Mannose and Uva Ursi: https://shorturl.at/mEQxc Other Herbal Options: Schisandra: https://shorturl.at/UlFyy                                                 Chanca Piedra: https://shorturl.at/TfpK8                                                 Glypho - X: https://shorturl.at/cB5r6 In this episode you'll learn: How Atrazine contaminates the tap water of tens of millions and is the most-detected pesticide in US water - https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/atrazine-water-tied-hormonal-irregularities/ USGS found atrazine in most farmcountry streams and much of the groundwater - https://www.nrdc.org/press-releases/us-drinking-water-and-watersheds-widely-contaminated-hormone-disrupting-pesticide How this chemical can linger in crop soil for many months and, according to the CDC, any Atrazine run-off takes a long time to break down in streams, rivers and lakes, leading to it popping up in water wells in agricultural regions. Possible symptoms that have been correlated with chemicals like Atrazine: lower birth weight, birth defects, possible period cycle disruption - https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4946150/ WHO's cancer agency classified atrazine a probable human carcinogen - https://biologicaldiversity.org/w/news/press-releases/whos-cancer-research-arm-finds-atrazine-is-probable-human-carcinogen-2025-11-21/ How to protect your endocrine system when legal limits are not necessarily safe limits.

Christine Massey sent FOIA requests to 225 institutions across 40 countries — including eight separate requests to the CDC — asking for any record of SARS-CoV-2 being isolated and purified from a patient's bodily fluid. Not one institution produced such a record. Massey and David Knight walk through exactly what virologists actually do instead: stress monkey kidney cells with reduced nutrition, add cow serum and antibiotics, watch the cells break down, and call that breakdown proof of a virus they never isolated in the first place.

While Elsevier's most recent Clinician of the Future Report shows increasing adoption of artificial intelligence tools among physicians and nurses, and optimism that they will improve quality of care in the future, a majority raised concerns about trust and reliability. To increase the level of trust, 60% said transparent citations of evidence-based and peer-reviewed research will be key. How to provide that transparency is our focus today as Raise the Line host Lindsey Smith welcomes Elsevier colleagues Rhett Alden and Raman Kaur to guide us through the complexities involved, including the concept of traceability and what role it plays in how AI tools such as Elsevier's ClinicalKey AI are built and deployed.  “Traceability changes the confidence that a clinician has in an AI tool so that they aren't trusting the AI, they're trusting the underlying evidence they're consuming from the AI-assisted platform,” says Raman, who brings years of experience as a primary care practitioner to her work.  It's also important, Rhett adds, to provide additional information, pulled from both the clinician's query and the patient's medical record, to inform clinical thinking. “ClinicalKey AI can be more than a response engine by establishing a larger context to provide a more precise answer for that individual patient.” In this thought-provoking discussion, these experts also provide insights on: Mitigating bias in AI results; Using AI responsibly with sustainability in mind; What type of clinician will benefit most from AI Mentioned in this episode: ClinicalKey AI Clinician of the Future Report If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

"We are cultivating community to support moms Bump & Beyond!" In this week's episode of the Sisters in Loss podcast, we are sitting down with the phenomenal Alexia Doumbouya (pronounced uh-LEK-see-uh DOOM-boy-yah). Alexia is the Founder and President of CocoLife (cocolife.black), an award-winning international speaker, certified Doula, and Childbirth Educator. With a Master's in Organizational Leadership and over 20 years of experience in Healthcare Administration and Public Health, Alexia is a true powerhouse and a leading voice in maternal health advocacy and doula workforce sustainability. Her life-changing work has been recognized by the CDC, March of Dimes, and CVS Health, and she has featured on major platforms including CNN, iHeart Media, and the US Department of Health and Human Services. Alexia's own path to motherhood with her two "Jr. Interns" (ages 14 and 6) was the catalyst for her life's work. Her eldest child was the exact reason she became a doula, and the heavy stories of maternal loss, mental health struggles, and obstetric systemic barriers she witnessed in her community became the driving force behind launching CocoLife. In this episode, Alexia shares how building a strong, faith-based village and growing in community allowed her to boldly walk into the purpose God called on her life. We discuss how she is actively bridging the gap between clinical healthcare and community-based doula support to save lives. In this episode, we discuss: Alexia's transition from public health administration to hands-on doula advocacy. How her 14-year-old inspired her to step into birth work. The birth of CocoLife and how it supports mothers from the "Bump & Beyond." The critical need for maternal health equity and sustainable doula workforces. The resources that keep her anchored, including Dr. Anita Phillips' The Garden Within, Dr. Cindy Trimm's Command Your Morning, and her indispensable village. If you are a birth worker, an advocate, or a mother looking to build a stronger village, Alexia's words will ignite your spirit and inspire you to walk boldly in your own calling.

Neoborn Caveman reads from the Dalai Lama's Book of Joy on how warm-heartedness dissolves loneliness and excessive self-focus creates the very alienation it chases, then turns the mirror and names the real war as the internal one where we suppress what we feel because the structure around us taught us to bury it. NC walks through a series of care home sexual assaults in Sweden where courts described the rape of an 82-year-old as short-lived and mitigated, declares rapists lose the identity of human, marks the 20th anniversary of the Svalbard Global Seed Vault and connects it to Monsanto's seed patent monopoly, then addresses the Powassan virus spreading across the US with 15-minute tick transmission and permanent neurological damage while drawing the Plum Island and Bill Gates lineage, and closes with a declaration of why America remains the greatest hope for humanity through faith, freedom, diversity and 36 million small businesses. Season 10 is gearing up with back catalog episodes and two new songs premiere from pMad and Inoxidables.Music guests: pMad, InoxidablesKey TakeawaysThe Dalai Lama argues excessive self-focus creates the very alienation and loneliness it tries to escape.The real war is internal — suppressing inner truth to adapt into structures designed to suppress us.Swedish courts classified the rape of an 82-year-old as mitigated because it was short-lived and without blows.A rapist loses the identity of human regardless of nationality or background.The Svalbard Global Seed Vault holds 2.25 billion seeds and was designed to survive the melting of every ice cap.Monsanto created heroin as children's cough syrup and now patents seeds while neighboring farms fail.Powassan virus transmits within 15 minutes and half of survivors suffer permanent neurological damage.CDC advice to keep grass short contradicts climate policy demanding taller grass.America has 36 million small businesses and the foundational principle that rule belongs to the free.Heaven on earth is not naive to imagine if America pursues its founding promise.Sound Bites"Is there a life after death? Well, that's not the right question. The right question is, is there a life before death?""However difficult it is to hear, it's us.""A rapist has no place in human society, period.""The court considered number of alleged mitigating factors, describing the rape as short-lived and one that occurred without threats or blows.""It is designed to remain dry, even if every ice cap on the planet melts.""You can't have your own seed.""I'm not going to say that this deadly new virus slash tick nightmare has anything to do with Bill Gates.""America is the greatest hope for the whole humanity.""Free is not when your speech is curtailed or when your government can grab you from home because you posted something online.""Heaven on earth can be created."Support the show and join the free tea house conversation at patreon.com/theneoborncavemanshow.Humanity centered satirical takes on the world & news + music - with a marble mouthed host.

Though cheap surgery overseas sounds like the ultimate life hack, Nick Pell takes a scalpel to the potential perils of medical tourism on Skeptical Sunday.Welcome to Skeptical Sunday, a special edition of The Jordan Harbinger Show where Jordan and a guest break down a topic that you may have never thought about, open things up, and debunk common misconceptions. This time around, we're joined by writer and researcher Nick Pell!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1348On This Week's Skeptical Sunday:How the "ultimate life hack" hides a brutal trade-off. Flying abroad for a 70% discount on a medical procedure means leaving behind malpractice law, insurance, and safety oversight. The money you save is often the safety net you lose, with no undo button and no legal recourse when something goes wrong.Why medical tourism brokers act more like salesmen than surgeons. Anyone can call themselves a "facilitator" with zero licensing, then pocket 10 to 40 percent commissions for steering you toward the highest-paying clinic rather than the cleanest one, often with an influencer doing the marketing.What the glossy recovery photos leave out. Survivorship bias buries the waterborne infections, wounds that won't close, and fatal embolisms. BBLs are the deadliest cosmetic procedure on record, and many botched jobs land back in US ERs, where your premiums quietly cover the six-figure repair.Why the darkest edge of this market runs on organ harvesting. Chinese sites promise new kidneys in weeks, a timeline that's biologically impossible unless you know when a donor will die. Investigators tie it to forced harvesting from Falun Gong and Uyghur detainees treated as living spare parts.How to vet a clinic before you book the flight. Start with CDC medical tourism alerts, confirm JCI or ISAPS accreditation, and verify the surgeon's license on an official government registry. Insist on hospital admitting privileges, and budget two to four weeks of recovery before flying home.Connect with Jordan on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube.

A listener returns to the show and pulls a fiber out of a factory-sealed package. Science pulls a “consistent with” out of its ass. Only one of those folks is being honest.Also, Crystal's baaack, and I'm open the only sane way: with Ren calling in at 9:30am holding a mystery fiber and the question every exiled patient eventually screams into the void. No diagnosis, no PhD cosplay — just two hella sexy middle-aged hotties who actually have this thing ... proving that you can have morgs and a life. But part of that life requires people practice. I know, you might be out of practice, but maybe today you pick up the phone, go for the walk, say something to a stranger. That helps this more than anything, so CC says. Thus, Healing first. Receipts second.Then Crystal sharpens the knives. Thirty years, six continents, identical symptom, zero shared telephone game — and somehow the verdict was “mass hysteria”? Bestie, hysteria needs a group chat. We put the CDC's “unexplained dermopathy” under the lamp, where “consistent with cotton” turns out to be the lab-coat version of a suppressed fart, and the raw spectra that'd settle the mystery for some reason mysteriously never got published. And our physical fibers under intact skin sits there being rude and real while everyone calls it a belief we have or a feeling. Bruh, it's a photograph. We don't claim to know the cause. We claim somebody got handed an object, refused to name it, and then billed us, defamed us and exiled us for the audacity of asking.“Consistent with cotton. It's consistent with cowardice.” -C.C.Tags Morgellons, Morgellons disease, Morgellons fibers, unexplained dermopathy, CDC Morgellons study, delusional parasitosis, is Morgellons real, medical gaslighting, chronic illness, patient advocacy, nurse podcastConnect Slide into the inbox, leave a voice or text note at the site moremorgellons.com and do not forget to rate, review, subscribe and smear your black goo all over that play button so you can just loop your way thru all 19 seasons of the Morgellons SURVIVAL GUIDE CC has built with the help of listeners from all over the world.

The person you turn to on your worst day isn't the funniest or the smartest. They're the one who makes you feel understood. That skill has a name: super communicator. And according to research, it's not a personality trait. It's a set of learnable habits. The same way anyone can learn to read. Charles Duhigg is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author of Supercommunicators: How to Unlock the Secret Language of Connection. He spent years studying what separates the people we love talking to from everyone else, and what he found will change how you walk into every conversation. Every discussion is actually three conversations layered on top of each other: a practical one, an emotional one, and a social one. When you're having a different one than the person across from you, connection breaks down before it even starts. Super communicators know how to identify which conversation is happening and match it. They also ask 10 to 20 times more questions than the average person. Not to interrogate, but to signal: I'm here. I'm listening. You matter.

In this episode of the HVAC School Podcast, Bryan sits down with Kelsey Hei and Andy Fox from 3M Filtrete to pull back the curtain on what really goes into a quality air filter. Most homeowners — and even some contractors — think of air filters as simple screens that catch dust, but as this episode makes clear, modern filter technology is anything but simple. From proprietary nonwoven fiber structures to electrostatic charging that turns fibers into "magnets" for microscopic particles, the science behind a great air filter is both fascinating and critically important for equipment health and the air we breathe every day. The conversation digs deep into why MERV 13 has become the gold standard recommendation from organizations like the EPA and CDC — especially in the wake of COVID-19 and worsening wildfire seasons across the country. While higher MERV ratings deliver better particle capture, they can also mean higher pressure drop, which strains HVAC equipment. This is where Filtrete's MPR 1900 filter stands out: it achieves MERV 13 performance while maintaining a pressure drop comparable to most MERV 8 filters — roughly half that of leading competitors. That balance between filtration efficiency and airflow resistance is something 3M has spent over 35 years engineering. One of the most compelling segments focuses on real-world testing. Rather than relying solely on lab data, 3M runs extensive in-home studies — placing filters in dozens of homes during Minnesota winters, then retrieving and analyzing them to measure real-life efficiency and pressure drop. This commitment to real-world validation ensures Filtrete's claims hold up in the messy, variable conditions of actual homes, not just controlled lab environments. Bryan and the guests also discuss how overloaded or collapsed filters can cause serious equipment issues, including frozen coils and system shutdowns in extreme cases — underscoring why filter quality and regular replacement matter enormously. The episode wraps with practical advice for contractors and homeowners alike: if you're installing a new system, push for a four- or five-inch filter slot to maximize surface area, lower ongoing pressure drop, and extend filter life. For existing one-inch slots, the MPR 1900 is the top pick. The Filtrete Smart App is also highlighted as a handy tool for setting filter change reminders and monitoring local air quality — making it easier than ever for consumers to stay on top of their indoor air health.

It's been one year since the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in an unprecedented move, dismissed all the members of its Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), kicking off what would turn out to be a very concerning and busy year for infectious disease specialists.  We're going to recap this turbulent period – which includes a resurgence of measles, an unusually rough flu season, the emergence of a new COVID strain and outbreaks of hantavirus and Ebola – with Dr. William Schaffner, one of the country's most frequently quoted medical experts on infectious disease, vaccination, and public health. As a member of ACIP for decades, Dr. Schaffner brings unique insight into the dismantling of the committee and the distrust of vaccines that lies at the root of the changes. As he explains to Raise the Line host Lindsey Smith, while many vaccine critics are beyond reach, there are those he describes as vaccine hesitant that may be persuadable if the right approach is taken. “Beyond providing facts, we have to listen to them and respond to their concerns and make them feel comfortable. Information is fundamental, but behavior change only comes with a change in attitude.” Tune in for a wealth of wisdom and context that includes observations on: What's complicating containment of the Ebola outbreak; Challenges in public health communication in the current social media environment; What grade health authorities should get on their response to the hantavirus outbreak.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is battling one of the worst Ebola outbreaks on record, calling on its workforce to help contain its spread overseas. But the CDC is dealing with last year's staffing cuts and still lacks permanent leadership in many of its roles. Further, Internal surveys show employees responding to the outbreak are also dealing with low morale. Federal News Network's Jory Heckman has more.

In this episode of The Birth Lounge Podcast, HeHe brings together two pediatricians with different perspectives on vaccines for a respectful, nuanced conversation about one of the most polarizing topics in modern parenting. Dr. Alok Patel approaches vaccination from a data-driven, public health perspective and generally supports the current CDC vaccine schedule. Dr. Joel takes a more vaccine-neutral approach centered on individualized care, informed consent, parental autonomy, and medical freedom. Rather than debating to "win," both physicians model what many parents have been asking for: thoughtful discussion, mutual respect, and room for questions. Together, they explore why trust between families and the healthcare system has eroded, how pandemic-era messaging impacted public confidence, and what happens when parents feel dismissed for asking questions. The conversation also dives into the challenges of science communication, the role of social media in amplifying division, and whether there is still room for nuance in modern pediatric medicine. Topics discussed include: Why many parents no longer trust the healthcare system and what contributed to that shift How pandemic-era communication affected public confidence in medicine Why questioning vaccines can quickly lead to "anti-vax" labels Whether vaccine recommendations should be more individualized and risk-stratified Concerns surrounding rising rates of chronic illness in children alongside an expanding vaccine schedule What current research can and cannot tell us about vaccine safety Why long-term safety studies and adverse event discussions matter to many parents The ethics and challenges of vaccine research and placebo-controlled trials The role pharmaceutical companies and liability protections play in public perception and vaccine hesitancy Whether pediatricians financially benefit from administering vaccines What informed consent should actually look like in pediatric care The impact of mandates, medical freedom, and public health policy on trust Why respectful disagreement between medical professionals is becoming increasingly rare How parents can navigate conflicting information without fear, shame, or pressure What rebuilding trust between families and medicine may require moving forward Throughout the conversation, HeHe encourages listeners to think critically, ask questions, and bring those questions back to trusted healthcare providers. This episode isn't about telling parents what decisions they should make. It's about creating space for honest conversation around a topic that affects nearly every family. Whether you agree with one doctor, both doctors, or neither, this episode serves as a reminder that curiosity, transparency, and respectful dialogue are essential parts of informed decision-making. Guest Bios: Dr. Alok Patel is a board-certified pediatrician, health communicator, and ABC News contributor known for translating complex medical topics into accessible, evidence-based information. He is passionate about improving public health literacy and helping families make informed healthcare decisions. Dr. Joel "Gator" Warsh is a board-certified pediatrician specializing in integrative and holistic medicine.

In this episode of We Want Them Infected, Jonathan Howard, MD, and Wendy Orent return with another "Therapy Time" session, breaking down the latest controversies in public health, vaccine policy, and medical misinformation. They examine a recent Wall Street Journal documentary on the Great Barrington Declaration and discuss what they describe as the ongoing effort to rewrite the history of the COVID-19 pandemic. The conversation explores the role of public health experts, media narratives, and the consequences of what they view as COVID amnesia. Jonathan and Wendy also discuss the growing measles outbreaks across the United States, declining vaccination rates, misinformation surrounding vitamin A as a measles treatment, and the broader impact of vaccine skepticism on public health. Additional topics include RFK Jr.'s influence over U.S. health policy, changes within federal health agencies, the future of vaccine recommendations, scientific funding, medical research, and the ethical questions surrounding global health decisions. Throughout the episode, they highlight the importance of frontline physicians, researchers, and healthcare workers who continue to combat infectious diseases and advocate for evidence-based medicine.     Episode Highlights The Wall Street Journal documentary on the Great Barrington Declaration and the debate over COVID-era policies Why Jonathan believes COVID's impact on young and otherwise healthy patients is being minimized The controversy surrounding the idea of herd immunity through widespread infection The American Diabetes Association controversy involving criticism of NIH leadership RFK Jr.'s role in public health policy and reactions from major medical organizations The resurgence of measles and what declining vaccination rates mean for public health Misinformation surrounding measles treatments, including vitamin A The future of vaccine recommendations at the CDC and FDA Concerns over political influence in scientific research and federal funding The rise of unproven medical treatments marketed to vulnerable families Ethical debates around global infectious disease response, including Ebola The healthcare workers and scientists continuing to protect public health     Memorable Quote "The people taking care of Ebola patients are the bravest people in the world." — Wendy Orent     Resources & Articles Mentioned The Great Barrington Declaration The Wall Street Journal documentary on COVID-era debates The New York Times reporting on RFK Jr.'s leadership of HHS STAT News reporting on RFK Jr.'s health policy promises CDC reports on measles outbreaks in the United States Reporting on vitamin A toxicity linked to misinformation about measles treatments The Guardian reporting on vaccine misinformation studies Reporting on NIH funding and scientific research changes

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening  The Tai-Ex opened down 124-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 45,685 on turnover of $8-billion N-T. Shares in Taiwan extended momentum (延續動能) from a session earlier and closed at the day's high Tuesday, led by the electronics and financial sectors amid improved sentiment (市場信心改善) with the United States and Iran scheduled to sign a peace agreement Friday. Optimism toward geopolitics continued to drive the local main board higher, but analysts say the gains lagged behind a strong rally in the United States as some investors appeared reluctant to chase prices amid fears of possible volatility (波動性) today, the settlement day of the June futures. Kaohsiung hospital dengue cluster linked to imported case: CDC The Centers for Disease Control says a dengue fever cluster (群聚感染) at Kaohsiung Municipal Min-Sheng Hospital has been confirmed as linked to an imported case from Vietnam. A localized dengue cluster emerged at Min-Sheng Hospital after five inpatients tested positive for dengue fever on June 12-th. At a weekly briefing, the CDC said genetic sequencing (基因定序) showed all infections in the cluster matched an imported case reported earlier this month. As of Monday, the cluster totaled six cases, with no new infections reported. The CDC has since expanded testing to more than 1,400 people at the hospital, but there is currently no evidence of broader community transmission (社區傳播). The center is stressing that dengue fever is a mosquito-borne disease and is not transmitted from person to person, thus mosquito prevention remains the most important measure. FBI foil terror plot against White House UFC event The FBI has arrested multiple people in connection with (與…有關) an alleged (涉嫌的) terrorist plot to attack Sunday's Ultimate Fighting Championship event at the White House. It was designed to coincide with (與…同時發生) Donald Trump's 80th birthday celebrations. Nick Harper reports from Washington. Toronto Links Multiple Shootings to GunforHire Networks Toronto police have linked multiple shootings, including one at the U.S. Consulate in March, to complex gun-for-hire networks (受僱開槍犯罪網絡). The Canadian city's police chief says young adults are being recruited through encrypted messaging apps (加密通訊軟體) to carry out attacks. Some firearms used in these shootings have been seized. A veteran officer was killed last week during a related raid (突襲行動). Toronto police, along with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and FBI, are investigating who is funding these attacks. Two firearms involved in over 25 shootings originated in the U.S. A suspect remains hospitalized, and another is wanted in connection with the consulate shooting. Uffizi Repositions Botticelli Masterpieces The Uffizi Gallery has repositioned (重新調整位置) Sandro Botticelli's masterpieces “The Birth of Venus” and “Primavera.” Starting Tuesday, visitors can view “The Birth of Venus” in one room and then turn to see “Primavera” in an adjoining space (相鄰空間). The director of the famed musuem in Italy, says this update marks a new phase in the ongoing renovation (持續進行的整修) of the Uffizi. Previously, the paintings were displayed on adjacent walls, allowing both to be viewed at once. In earlier decades, they hung on opposite walls in the same room, leading to crowding.

Decades before Covid-19, the AIDS epidemic tore through communities in the US and around the world. It has killed some 40 million people and continues to take lives today. But early on, research and public policy focused on AIDS as a gay men's disease, overlooking other vulnerable groups—including communities of color and women. This month marks 45 years since the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published its first report about a mysterious illness that would eventually be called AIDS. So we're bringing back Blindspot: The Plague in the Shadows, from reporters Kai Wright and Lizzy Ratner, which chronicles the first years of the HIV epidemic in New York City. One of the most influential activists for women with AIDS was Katrina Haslip, a prisoner at a maximum-security prison in upstate New York. In the 1980s, Haslip and other incarcerated women started a support group to educate each other about HIV and AIDS.Haslip took her activism beyond prison walls after her release in 1990, even meeting with CDC leaders. One of the main goals was to change the definition of AIDS, which at the time excluded many symptoms that appeared in HIV-positive women. This meant that women with AIDS often did not qualify for government benefits such as Medicaid and disability insurance. The podcast series Blindspot: The Plague in the Shadows is a co-production of The History Channel and WNYC Studios. This is an update of an episode that originally aired in February 2024.

Does this sound familiar?“I'm busy all day, but I don't get anything done. I want something to show for my efforts.”“Everyone in my life is tired of my lateness and unreliability.”“I can't get motivated unless I'm facing a deadline, and what I produce isn't as good as it could be.”In this episode of A Mind of Her Own with Jennifer Reid, MD, we hear from adult ADHD expert, J. Russell Ramsay, PhD about a new way of viewing ADHD: as fundamentally a self-regulation problem, not an attention problem. The name is misleading. What's really impaired is the ability to organize behavior across time in order to consistently follow through on what you intend to do.CBT adapted for ADHD works differently than standard CBT. The focus isn't on changing negative thoughts. It's on reverse-engineering the how of not doing things, then building explicit step-by-step plans. The goal is slowing down the executive function deliberately, making implicit steps external and visible.The Core Executive Functions Affected in ADHD:* Inhibition (pausing before responding automatically)* Nonverbal working memory (mental simulation and planning)* Verbal working memory (internal self-talk and staying on track)* Emotional regulation and motivation (generating drive in the absence of immediate consequences)* Reconstitution (flexible, creative problem-solving)Emotional dysregulation is a core feature, but it's invisible in the DSM. Emotions don't appear in the diagnostic criteria at all, yet they drive much of what people actually struggle with: impulsive reactions, difficulty tolerating discomfort, and using guilt as a misguided motivator.Women are significantly under-diagnosed and diagnosed later. CDC data from 2024 found that 50% of people with ADHD were diagnosed at age 18 or older, and 61% of those were women. Girls' symptoms often appear on the playground rather than in the classroom, with social disruption rather than academic chaos, making them easier to overlook. Women are also more likely to be diagnosed first with anxiety or depression.Self-mistrust is a hallmark and often mistaken for low confidence. After years of inconsistent follow-through, many adults with ADHD stop trusting themselves to do what they set out to do. This isn't simply low self-esteem; it's a learned pattern of doubting one's own reliability, often amplified by the unspoken message: it must be something I'm doing wrong.High functioning doesn't mean unaffected. Many people mask symptoms for years through compensatory strategies: all-nighters, parental scaffolding, sheer willpower, until the scaffolding is removed or life demands multiply (new job, parenthood, caregiving, perimenopause).Front-end perfectionism drives procrastination. The biggest cognitive distortion in ADHD isn't negativity, it's the belief that conditions must be perfect before starting. Waiting to feel focused, energized, or “in the mood” guarantees perpetual delay. The reframe: Do I have enough to begin?ADHD also brings real strengths. Creativity, the ability to hyper-focus in stimulating environments, hands-on intuitive knowledge, persistence when engaged, and the capacity for innovative thinking are all genuine advantages, not consolation prizes.Resources Mentioned* Book: Once I Get Started: The Adult ADHD Program for Turning Your Intentions into Actions — Dr. Russell Ramsay (Avery/Penguin Random House, May 2025)* Book: You Mean I'm Not Lazy, Stupid or Crazy?! — Kate Kelly & Peggy Ramundo (mid-90s classic, still widely cited)* Book: The Power of Habit — Charles Duhigg (source of the “keystone habit” concept)* Book: The Extended Mind: The Power of Thinking Outside the Brain — Annie Murphy Paul (on environment, cognition, and the need for solitude)* Book: Living Well with Adult ADHD: Practical Strategies for Improving Your Daily Life — Dr. Laura Knouse & Dr. Russell Barkley (Guilford Press, 2025)* Researcher: Dr. Margaret Sibley — Professor of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences, University of Washington; leading work on adult ADHD diagnosis guidelines through the American Professional Society of ADHD and Related Disorders (APSARD)* Researcher: Dr. Russ Barkley — foundational work on ADHD as executive dysfunction* Assessment tool: QB Test (Qbtech) — computerized continuous performance task used to objectively measure attention, impulsivity, and activity* Website: cbt4adhd.com — Dr. Ramsay's practice, contact form, and resourcesAbout Dr. Russell RamsayDr. J.

"Do nothing for us without us." According to today's guest Robyn Bussey, that operating principle is the basis for effective community health work. "You don't go into a community and dictate. You go and listen and trust and be a partner," she adds. As you'll learn in this enlightening conversation, Bussey is following that approach in her current work as Just Health Director at the Partnership for Southern Equity, an Atlanta-based nonprofit advancing racial equity and shared prosperity across the South.  On this episode of Raise the Line from Elsevier, Bussey provides illuminating  examples of community-rooted work in South Fulton County and rural Georgia, and explains why community health workers may be the most underutilized asset in addressing health disparities. This wide-ranging interview with host Michael Carrese also explores: Bussey's candid perspective on what happened to the surge of interest in health equity that occurred during COVID; Why life expectancy gains in many Southern states have lagged behind the rest of the country; Her advice to students and early-career clinicians about where they're needed most.   Mentioned in this episode:  Partnership for Southern Equity If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

In this Meaningful Money Q&A episode, Pete and Roger answer six listener questions on pensions, retirement planning and tax for a UK audience. We cover whether to put life insurance into trust, how to reduce the 60% marginal tax trap around £100k income, and whether taking a defined benefit pension early can make sense when health is a factor. Plus, we explain the Royal Mail Collective Defined Contribution (CDC) pension, share practical guidance on dealing with overseas pensions, and discuss when to take 25% tax-free cash for the best outcome. Shownotes: https://meaningfulmoney.tv/QA51    01:36  Question 1 Hi both, I have a question relating to discretionary trusts for life insurance policies. I'm from Scotland, 37, married with 2 young children and have a life assurance policy with Vitality which is currently not in trust. I was considering putting into a trust for the benefits associated to inheritance tax but was looking to get your opinion on whether it was necessary or not, and what the pros/cons are. Thanks, Marc 05:46  Question 2 Hi Pete and Roger I am a relatively latecomer to the podcast - its been a year or so now but your work makes the complications of planning for retirement so much more understandable so thank you for bringing clarity to a very difficult subject. I have two first world questions if I may.  Neither are time critical. I am in a fortunate position.  DB pensions will kick in over the next 2 years (I am 63) totalling circa £75K pa and with the state pension at 67 it won't be very long - if tax thresholds and rates don't change - before I will be hitting the 60% effective rate.  So to delay the inevitable, I am thinking I will need to contribute to a DC pension!  As I understand it, if I have a DC scheme for three tax years and presumably contribute to such a scheme each year (say £100?) in the year I hit the £100K income, I will be able to contribute gross £3600 x 4 (so £2160 pa or £8640 in total, less any annual contributions along the way) in the first year or with care spreading that amount over 2-3 years to ease the tax burden.  I realise when the money is withdrawn it will still be taxed at my marginal rate, but maybe the 60% marginal rate will have been removed by then - I can hope!  Is that right?  Have I missed anything or are there any other techniques generally available? I am also in a position that when my wife and I both die, unless carehome fees have eaten into the estate, there will be inheritance tax to pay as our combined wealth is well over £1m and we have already given away what we reasonably can to our children.  As I understand it, inheritance tax is payable 6 months after death but all being well probate will be granted well before that so our bank accounts can be used to pay the tax (our children have financial and health powers of attorney but they are irrelevant on death).  Apart from incredibly expensive life assurance or a lifetime gift of cash for this purpose, is there anything else we can do to facilitate payment (the nature of our affairs means there's not much more we can do to mitigate the liability itself, ie the vast majority of the value is in the family home!) Many thanks, David   11:46  Question 3 Hi Roger and Pete,   First of all thank you for all the content you provide, it has been incredibly useful as I start to really take the idea of early retirement seriously.   I am 49 and looking to retire as early as financially possible as I have medical issues that mean my life expectancy is somewhat curtailed - though I plan on defying the inevitable for as long as possible.   I have a DC pension which I plan to access as soon as I stop working in hopefully 10 years' time. I also have an index-linked deferred DB pension which provides a 50% widows pension as one of the benefits.   I am torn between accessing this 6 years early (with a 25% reduction) as I start drawing from my DC pension, or delaying so that my wife is better taken care of later in life. Whatever I choose, all the projections seem to stack up that my DC pension should last into my 90s, but I'm acutely aware that I will probably want to go a bit overboard when I first retire and try to maximise travel and experiences.   My question is, am I missing something in the DB trade off?  Assuming I live a while after retiring, accessing the pension early will take a decent amount of time before we're financially worse off than we would have been if we'd waited (~13 years). However the combined loss of my state pension and the smaller DB income could leave my wife short of funds.   I would really appreciate your perspective on this scenario and anything else you think I might want to consider, many thanks again for all of your words of wisdom, Dan Meaningful Academy Retirement Planning: https://meaningfulacademy.com/retirementplanning  19:40 Question 4 Hi Pete and Roger! My partner works for Royal Mail, she is under the new starters contract and started in 2022, at which point the pension scheme was a typical defined contribution scheme with very generous contribution levels from the employer of 10% with a 6% contribution from the employee. This was 'easy' to make assumptions on for compound calculations to plan for our very far away retirement as we are both currently 27 years of age. Now this brings me to today's pension scheme, which is known as a Collective Defined Contribution plan. I'm struggling to find any information on this type of scheme as it seems to be the first of its kind in the UK, and seems to have been used for a while in the Netherlands. Now the wording of the scheme seems to be worded as if it's a Defined Benefit scheme with a lump sum being paid at retirement age and a 'Guaranteed income for life' amount being paid each month, however it has the caveat that the payout per month may decrease if investments do not perform as expected for better or for worse, so this is not a guaranteed amount at all in reality. The issue I have with this is that with a standard DC scheme like my own, if I was to die either before or during retirement, the remaining money in the pot would be inherited by my surviving spouse or if she was to pass away before I do, it would go to the next nominated beneficiary. With the Collective DC scheme, it's worded that if my partner was to die before she claimed it then I would receive the 'income for life' portion at a reduced rate of 50% and lose out on the lump sum entirely or if she was to pass away after claiming it then she would clearly receive the lump sum and I would remain to collect 50% income for life for as long as I remain alive. This seems to be very unfavourable for anyone receiving the benefit of this scheme on the whole. Now with some calculations, not using exact figures but somewhere close, I've just done some comparisons as the new Collective DC plan was sold as far and away a better option than the old DC Plan, but I cannot find a way for it to make sense. It's hard to see how this new scheme is better in any way compared to the old scheme, even if the contributions from the employer look more generous on paper. Is there something I am completely missing or misunderstanding with this new type of pension scheme? I have not seen much content online about it at all and would love for this to be featured in a podcast episode or video or even just for a chat on this matter as I feel very underwater with this. I can't seem to find a good way to factor this pension into our plan as we do plan to retire before the age of 67, this is just the age stated on the CDC scheme for payout so this is the assumption I am working with. There is an option to opt out of the CDC plan and join a regular NEST DC plan instead but this only has 4% employer contributions on top of the 5% employee giving a yearly contribution of x per year. I suppose my main gripe would be how much you would lose out on if the worst was to happen as traditionally this would remain as a pot for next of kin to inherit, however if my partner and I both passed away at age 70 (I certainly hope not!) and didn't have kids under the age of 18, the entire amount of money would be lost. This is the part I'm struggling to wrestle and the NEST pot even looks appealing with this in mind. I know the future is uncertain and we could live to 100, but the chances are relatively low. Apologies this got a bit long and ranty, I would appreciate any feedback. Keep up the amazing work and I have learned loads from your content over the years. Many Thanks, Joe 29:56 Question 5 Hi Pete and Rodger, Like many people these days, I spent part of my career working overseas. I'm now 52 and have been thinking about how best to deal with personal pensions I accrued while working abroad, in my case, in Japan and the United States (both broadly equivalent to 401(k)-type schemes). While working overseas, I didn't accrue sufficient qualifying years to receive any state pension benefits, but I did build up some company personal pension entitlements. The amounts are relatively small (less than £100k in total), which makes me question whether it's worth the time and cost of seeking formal financial advice. My UK-based pensions and ISAs are relatively straightforward and well organised, but these overseas pots feel more cumbersome by comparison. I imagine there must be many people in a similar position, holding small overseas pension pots and unsure what the most sensible approach is. From an administrative perspective, it feels as though the simplest option may be to access these pensions as soon as I reach the relevant retirement ages, rather than continuing to manage them long term. That said, I'd welcome any general thoughts or guidance on typical approaches people take in this situation, and any obvious pitfalls to be aware of. Many thanks, Lawrence Perceptive Planning - https://www.perceptiveplanning.co.uk     34:20  Question 6 58 now and both thinking of retiring at 61 with no mortgage and kids self sufficient. At age 61 we will have around £300k in savings (inc stocks n shares ISAs, cash ISAs, Premium Bonds and Bank Accounts) and between us will have around £450k in Pensions at age 67 and the wife will get a £7k a year NHS DB pension. Our idea is to live off the cash first from age 61 till age 67 to let the pension pot grow to its absolute max and then draw down the 25% tax free to add to state pension at age 67 then live off the rest at about 4% per year BUT others say take the tax free 25% before 67 because if do it at 67 it will add to the state pension taking you over the personal allowance! We want to let the pot grow more for actual retirement age of 67 onwards and leave more for the kids inheritance long term if we don't use it all so unsure what to do. For clarity, it's our intention to lump sum some money in to our pensions and ISAs in April with some of our 'available cash' and may also lump sum in to my Stocks n Shares ISA to leave it growing for say between 8 to 15 years until we need it. Any advice welcome, Steven. James Shack video on Withdrawal Strategy  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4MDvcEcHXI   

Seasonal Affective Disorder When you hear seasonal affective disorder, you probably think of the cold, dark days of winter. But for some people, seasonal depression arrives at the opposite time of year. As temperatures rise and daylight stretches into the evening, sadness, anxiety and irritability can emerge. Wednesday on the “Sound of Ideas,” we'll discuss how heat, light and seasonal changes can affect our mental health. Guest:- Alicia Roth, Ph.D., Behavioral Sleep Medicine Psychologist, Cleveland Clinic Understanding claims about antidepressants Later, we'll speak with mental health experts about antidepressants. A recent Gallup poll found 18% of adults reported having depression last year. And depression rates for Americans under 30 and lower income adults have risen dramatically over the last eight years. Antidepressant medications have been shown to help ease depressive symptoms. One common type of medication, called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors or SSRIs, were used by more than 11% of adults in 2023, according to CDC data. And adults in the Midwest take antidepressants more than any other region in the nation. U.S. Health Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr. has been outwardly skeptical about the use of SSRIs, and last month, announced a plan to address the "overuse of psychiatric medications, especially among children" in favor of what he calls a more holistic approach to mental health. But psychiatrists have warned that some of the claims about the side effects of antidepressants are misinformed, including that there's an increased link to mass violence. And there's concern that this move could limit access to treatment for millions who rely on it.

A new preliminary Senate report from Ron Johnson alleges Biden-era FDA officials had access to a superior data-mining tool as early as March 2021 that flagged dozens of COVID-shot safety signals — including cardiac death, strokes, and Bell's palsy — but kept using an older "masking" algorithm that hid them. According to the report, officials told FDA medical officer Dr. Anna to cease and desist, expressed worry about "fueling anti-vax sentiment," and stopped sharing data with the CDC in 2022. Sen. Johnson calls it the biggest government scandal of his lifetime — and says the major networks won't cover it.

In 2020, something got installed in your brain — a switch. And every time the media needs a click, they flip it, because they know it still works. This week it's Ebola. Three weeks ago it was hantavirus. The CDC says the risk to Americans is extremely low. The WHO went on camera and said this is not the next Covid. But that's not what the headlines say… because calm doesn't get clicks. Fear does. In this episode I show you the machine behind the fear — the funnel, the business model, the exact script. I teach a framework called Hook, Story, Offer, and when I looked at how the media covers these virus stories, I realized they're running the same three steps I teach marketers… except they're not selling a product, they're selling fear. Then I bring in two books — a 1962 warning from French philosopher Jacques Ellul, and my friend Ryan Holiday's confessions of a media manipulator — to explain not just how they do it, but why. And as a dad, the part that keeps me up at night is who's paying the price. Key Highlights: ◼️The “Fear Funnel” — how the media runs the same Hook, Story, Offer I teach, except the hook is a scary headline, the story buries the CDC's “extremely low risk” at the bottom, and the offer is a subscription to your own anxiety ◼️”Pre-propaganda” — Jacques Ellul's 1962 idea that the most powerful conditioning happens before the message ever arrives… and why Covid installed the switch the word “virus” still flips today ◼️What Ryan Holiday's “Trust Me, I'm Lying” exposes — the media doesn't sell information, it sells attention, and the cheapest attention is fear and outrage that bypass rational thought (your amygdala clicks before you do) ◼️The numbers behind a dying industry — media trust falling from 72% in the 1970s to 28% today (just 8% among Republicans), and fear as the last lever that still works ◼️The “Disclosure Test” — the one question to run on your own urgency: if your audience knew exactly how and why you created it, would they still respect you? Here's the uncomfortable part: urgency itself isn't the enemy. Deadlines work, scarcity drives action, and I use urgency in my business every single day. The line is whether it's real. A cart that's actually closing is real. “The next pandemic” when the CDC says the risk is extremely low — when fear just happens to pay the bills — is manufactured. Ellul predicted this in 1962, Holiday exposed it in 2012, and we're watching it run in real time in 2026, with the most anxious generation in recorded history footing the bill. So the real question isn't whether the next virus is dangerous. It's this: which is more dangerous right now — the virus, or the coverage… and which side of that line is your own marketing on? ◼️DOTCOM SECRETS: The media stole Hook, Story, Offer and turned it into a fear machine — Russell wrote the book on how to use it the RIGHT way.

What happens when a deadly outbreak is stopped before most people ever hear about it?  Dr. Paige Armstrong, director for the Center for Disease Control and Prevention's Global Health Center, explains how the CDC works with partners around the world to detect and contain emerging health threats before they reach U.S. communities. From Ebola in Uganda to Marburg in Tanzania, Dr. Armstrong shares real-world examples of how surveillance systems, laboratory networks, trained public health workers, and trusted international partnerships help stop outbreaks at their source. Also, Dr. Marcus Plescia, former ASTHO Chief Medical Officer and District Health Director for the Fulton Health District, District 3-2 in Atlanta, Georgia discusses the massive public health preparations underway for the FIFA World Cup in Atlanta.

Lyme disease is a real lemon. Despite mainstream medicine building a consensus about Lyme Disease and Alpha-Gal Syndrome, and despite conspiracies surrounding the rejection of that consensus in favor of laboratory experiments gone wrong (or as planned), these "diseases" work on assumption and statical fraud: Lyme is caused by the Deer Tick, which is associated in general with the disease, and a set of symptoms that are the body's reaction to nearly every potential hazard; AGS is caused by the Lone Star Tick, which is associated in general with an allergic reaction. In both cases, only a percentage of the people “infected” come down symptoms that could also be the result of poor dietary and lifestyle habits — see fatigue and bodily pain. The fact is, visit the doctor with the symptoms in 2021, you have COVID; visit the doctor today and you have Lyme or AGS. As for red meat allergies caused by ticks, the case by case reporting is hype and assumption/association. Are there weaponized ticks being dropped off in boxes in the woods? Probably not, considering “tick boxes” are very real preventative measures that can be purchased to attract the bugs for extermination. While we are busy arguing and calling each other names, a whole other reality awaits. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

This week, we're looking at a sorely undercovered national story: the murder rate is declining at an incredible rate. At the same time, the suicide rate is headed the other way. To explore why that divergence has happened, we've got Pew Research Center's John Gramlich on the show to discuss the details. He wrote a piece looking at the most recent FBI and CDC data on gun murder and suicide. He said the results are remarkable. The murder rate is plummeting. It's back to pre-pandemic levels and shows no sign of leveling off. Gramlich said the decline is incredible and rare. He also described how the role of guns in murder has changed over time as well. The post-pandemic data shows that the portion of guns used in murders has shifted significantly. The same is true for the portion of gun deaths that are due to suicides rather than murders. Largely, Gramlich noted, because murders have fallen substantially while suicides have gone up a bit. Even though the gun suicide rate didn't climb dramatically, as the gun murder rate did in 2020, it has slowly climbed to near-record rates. Meanwhile, Gramlich said crime data from sources beyond the FBI and CDC indicate the gun murder rate is nearing record lows. Here's a link to John's piece: https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2026/04/28/what-the-data-says-about-gun-deaths-in-the-us/Special Guest: John Gramlich.

Facelifts are having a MOMENT. Kris Jenner. Denise Richards. Suddenly every woman over 50 is asking the question out loud: is this what it takes now? Do I need a facelift? Is there a natural alternative that actually works? Facial plastic surgery jumped 19% in 2025. Forty-five percent of surgeons say menopause is what is driving it. Which means somebody needs to be telling us the REAL story, not the marketing one. This episode is with Dr. Anthony Youn, board-certified plastic surgeon known as America's Holistic Plastic Surgeon. He is the most-followed plastic surgeon on the internet with 13 million+ across TikTok and YouTube. He is the author of four bestsellers including Younger For Life and he hosts The Doctor Youn Show. Here is why he is different. He is a surgeon who tells women to AUTOJUVENATE before you operate. Skincare. Supplements. Collagen. Red light. Nutrition. Hormones. THEN, and only then, do we talk procedures. This is the honest midlife conversation about what works, what doesn't, and what is marketing. WE GO DEEP ON Why facelifts have gone mainstream and the Kris Jenner / Denise Richards effect SMAS vs. deep plane vs. ponytail lift, explained in plain English The natural stack that actually works BEFORE surgery (the autojuvenation method) When it IS actually time to consider surgery, and when to wait The simple 6-product skincare routine for every midlife woman Clean skincare: what is real, what is marketing fear Sunscreen truth: mineral vs. chemical, and the brands he actually recommends Collagen supplements: the research, the dose, what to look for on the label Red light therapy: does it actually work, and the masks worth the money Botox honestly: the 2025 CDC counterfeit warning and how to stay safe Filler, pillow face, and why we are in the anti-filler era BBL danger: the deadliest cosmetic surgery and how to lower the risk The ONE thing every midlife woman should do this week This is not a product pitch. This is the conversation that gives you control.

OA1264 - Sherise Doyley was in the early stages of labor, in a hospital bed, preparing to deliver her baby, when nurses wheeled in a computer. On the screen was a judge, notifying her of an emergency order by the State of Florida to attempt to force her to undergo a C-section, instead of first attempting vaginal delivery. For 3 hours she advocated for herself, without an attorney, barely covered in a hospital gown. How was any of this legal? What is happening? Jenessa breaks down the history of our rights to make our own medical decisions and how that is legally modified in pregnancy, Lydia shares her own birth experience and how these situations could be handled with actual compassion, and Thomas holds very still in hopes our eyes are based on movement (just kidding, Thomas is very supportive and also outraged). Come rage against the machine with us and hopefully breathe life into a revived pro-choice movement, before it's too late. Amy Yurkanin (Mar. 14, 2026), They Didn't Want to Have C-Sections.
