On this episode of “Fearless,” Jason Whitlock reacts to Michelle Obama comparing ESPN and Stephen A. Smith to the “Desperate Housewives” show.

Reports say Shannon Sharpe won't be returning to his role as an ESPN analyst after settling a lawsuit with an OnlyFans model who accused him of sexual assault. Sharpe joins a long list of football stars who have stumbled on the world stage, and on this episode of “Fearless,” Jason Whitlock ranks the top 10 football fumbles. Speaking of athletes falling from grace, Whitlock has the latest on the Department of Justice charging former NBA All-Star Gilbert Arenas with allegedly hosting illegal “high-stakes poker games” at his California mansion. Guest Steve Kim joins Whitlock to unpack the Arenas drama as well as Marcus Morris' Instagram post attempting to explain away his fraud allegations. Later on, Whitlock addresses DeWanna Bonner being booed during her return to the WNBA court, Kahleah Copper defending her, and how the Fever's third straight win further proves Caitlin Clark will have to adjust her play when she's back in the game.

This week, we're pulling clips from our most recent webinar: 7 Ways Clinics Fail (and How to Make Sure Yours Doesn't!). It's a straight-shooting look at what keeps great clinics stuck, and exactly what to do instead.If you're still relying on word-of-mouth for patient growth or haven't touched your lease since signing it, this one's a must-listen.This episode is a field guide for clinic owners who want to scale with intention, protect their margins, and build something that lasts.

Welcome back to Ditch the Labcoat! In this thought-provoking episode, Dr. Mark Bonta sits down with Kali Dayton, nurse practitioner, international consultant, and the bold voice behind the Awake and Walking ICU movement. Together, they peel back the curtain on a common but rarely questioned practice in critical care: routine heavy sedation of patients on ventilators.Kali shares her journey from a nurse in a pioneering ICU—where awake, mobile, intubated patients were the norm—to a world where comatose ventilator patients are the expectation. She unpacks the hidden harms of automatic sedation, sharing both eye-opening research and the heart-wrenching stories of ICU survivors who left with trauma, cognitive struggles, and fractured lives.Dr. Bonta and Kali explore how culture, habit, and outdated beliefs have shaped critical care—and challenge us all to rethink what's possible. Is it really safer, easier, or kinder to keep patients sedated? Or can presence, mobility, and human connection transform not just survival, but recovery?Get ready to question what you thought you knew about the ICU, discover what's already possible in some hospitals, and hear a call to action for compassionate, evidence-based change. If you work in healthcare—or might ever need it—this is a conversation you can't afford to miss. Let's ditch the lab coat and reimagine patient care, one episode at a time.Episode HighlightsRethinking ICU Sedation — Most ventilated patients don't require deep sedation—remaining awake can actually improve outcomes and reduce harm.Hidden Harm of Sedation — Automatic sedation often leads to delirium, long-term trauma, and cognitive impairment for many ICU survivors.Awake and Walking ICU Model — It's possible and beneficial to keep intubated patients awake and mobile; some ICUs already achieve this routinely.Cultural Myths in Medicine — Common ICU practices persist due to unexamined traditions, not necessarily the latest evidence or patient-centered thinking.Preventing Delirium Is Key — Early avoidance of sedation and encouraging mobility drastically decrease risks of ICU delirium and related complications.Power of Patient Stories — Listening to ICU survivors reveals the real, lasting harms of unnecessary sedation and challenges clinical assumptions.Team Buy-In Essential — Successful change requires educating and involving the entire healthcare team, from doctors to bedside nurses.Early Mobility Saves Lives — Mobilizing patients—even walking them—within hours of intubation is not only feasible, but can improve recovery.Family Involvement Matters — Informing and including families in care expectations helps calm patients and supports a less traumatic ICU experience.Start Small, Lead Change — Begin cultural transformation with one patient, one team—small steps can drive a revolution toward better, humane care.Episode Timestamps05:14 — Challenges of Mechanical Ventilation 06:57 — ICU Nursing: Breathing Tube Walks 10:14 — ICU Norms Challenged: Breathing Tubes 13:16 — Pioneering Awake, Mobile Patient Care 19:11 — Awake and Walking ICU Initiative 22:06 — Rethinking Hospital DVT Practices 25:42 — Sedation Considerations Before Intubation 27:20 — Reducing Delirium in ICU Care 32:57 — Sedation: Not Just Laughing Gas 36:24 — Rounding Culture and ICU Challenges 39:08 — Improving ICU Care: ABCDEF Protocol 41:23 — Rethinking Patient Sedation Practices 44:14 — Improving ICU Patient Care 47:38 — Revolutionizing Awake ICU CareDISCLAMER >>>>>>    The Ditch Lab Coat podcast serves solely for general informational purposes and does not serve as a substitute for professional medical services such as medicine or nursing.

IVF chains in India aren't deterred by paltry things like probabilities. They've made IVF the new C-section—essentially, a revenue-generating procedure pushed before natural alternatives are even considered. All at 4X the cost of a C-section, or around Rs 2 lakh for a single cycle.The result is a $1.4 billion IVF market in India—10 times the market for cataract surgery, the most common procedure worldwide.Unsurprisingly, venture-capital and private-equity firms have swooped in for the kill. That this growth is coming at the cost of quality care is the real problem. Tune in.Daybreak is produced from the newsroom of The Ken, India's first subscriber-only business news platform.

Black people in America are under a mass psychosis, led around by demonic forces. From Austin Metcalf/Karmelo Anthony to the Cincinnati Music Festival and Ethan Liming, it seems we can't escape the violence within the black community. Jason kicks off the show with the phenomenon of "the black KKK" and how the force is destructive to both black and white people. This prison culture and mentality are destroying us. After Jason talks on this, Steve Kim joins the show to discuss how Deion Sanders held a press conference to announce his victory over bladder cancer. They also talk Christian Wilkins, a Raiders player who was recently cut for gay rumors. Jason ends the show with As the WNBA Turns, as Kahleah Copper loses her wig, runs off the court, and has fans ejected for making fun of her. Great show today! You don't want to miss it!

In many workplaces, urgency culture has become the norm: every email, meeting, or task is treated like a crisis, triggering a constant state of hyper-vigilance. According to recent research right here in the GCC, this steady pressure is fueling anxiety, exhaustion, and widespread burnout among professionals. But why? And how do we switch off if your company's culture is on and on and on? Dr Thoraiya Kanafani from the Human Resources Institute and Clinics helps us unpack how urgency culture pushes people over the edge and what it means for mental health. This month, a new study by Times Higher Education has highlighted that many students admit to using AI in ways universities never anticipated, prompting not just a raft of summer resits but also prompting urgent calls to redefine what ‘cheating’ means in the age of AI. We explore what that means for exam policy, student behaviour, and academic integrity with Dr Zeenath Reza Khan, Founding president of the Centre for Academic Integrity in the UAE.

Former NBA guard Jeff Teague recently said LeBron James used steroids and had to sit out games under the guise of a back injury because the league started testing for HGH. Teague quickly backtracked and claimed he was just joking, but Jason Whitlock isn't buying it. On this episode of “Fearless,” Whitlock once again tackles a topic sports fans care about, but ESPN and FOX Sports are ignoring. Whitlock revisits similar accusations Kevin Garnett made last year about James and argues Teague was silenced by the powerful sports media, which doesn't like when its moneymakers' reputations are sullied by PED allegations. Whitlock gives a rundown of other alleged PED-ophiles, including Lance Armstrong, Barry Bonds, Jon Jones, and Alex Rodriquez, and he discusses the accusations with guests Steve Kim and Jay Skapinac. Later on, Whitlock addresses Cam Newton's controversial comments about Jalen Hurts not ranking as a top-10 quarterback, and he argues there is a top-five list, but the top 10 quarterbacks could be anyone. More Caitlin Clark hate, John Harbaugh on Trump, and Deion Sanders' trip to son Shiloh's training camp are more topics Whitlock covers on today's exciting show! ​​Today's Sponsors: Pre-Born PreBorn's Network of Clinics provides free ultrasounds to women with unplanned pregnancies and not only do they save lives but they love and care for these hurting women.

The country's biggest private operator of psychology clinics is set to shut nearly all of them, and mental health experts are worried about the consequences.

Bongani Bingwa speaks to Jens Pedersen, Director at the Africa First Advisory, about the far-reaching consequences of recent US funding cuts to HIV and TB programmes in Africa. For over 20 years, the PEPFAR initiative had bipartisan support and saved more than 25 million lives, including many in South Africa. However, in February, the Trump administration abruptly announced funding reductions that led to the closure of several clinics, disproportionately affecting vulnerable groups such as adolescent girls, young women, sex workers, trans people, injecting drug users, and LGBTQ+ communities. While pregnant and breastfeeding mothers continue to receive support, others have been left behind. Following strong activist pushback, there has been a limited reprieve, but the future of critical HIV services remains uncertain as political agendas increasingly interfere with global health aid. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station. Bongani makes sense of the news, interviews the key newsmakers of the day, and holds those in power to account on your behalf.

On this episode of Ditch the Lab Coat, Dr. Mark Bonta sits down with Dr. Georg Haymerle—once a top head and neck surgeon in Europe and Australia, now a dedicated advocate for culture change in medicine. Georg's journey is anything but typical: after reaching the pinnacle of surgical mastery, he made the radical decision to walk away—not because of burnout or failure, but to confront the invisible crisis unraveling healthcare teams from within.Join us as we dive into Dr. Haymerle's powerful story: from the grueling demands of 14-hour cancer surgeries and the accidental discovery of high-functioning, trust-based teams, to the moment when his own department's spirit collapsed under uncertainty. We'll explore why human factors like psychological safety and simple acts of gratitude can impact patient outcomes just as much as surgical skill. Dr. Haymerle takes us inside the often-overlooked world of healthcare team dynamics, revealing why he left the operating room behind to fix something even more delicate than anatomy: the fractured culture that shapes how care is delivered.If you've ever wondered whether culture truly matters in medicine—or how speaking up, vulnerability, and a heartfelt “thank you” might just save a life—this episode will stay with you long after you listen. Tune in for a heartfelt, evidence-based conversation about what really keeps healthcare teams—and their patients—thriving.Episode Highlights1. Team Spirit Transforms Outcomes — Cohesive, trusting teams dramatically improve surgical efficiency and patient safety, sometimes reducing surgery times by hours.2. Culture Changes Everything — Good workplace culture is just as critical as skill—loss of hope or toxic environments erode performance and morale.3. Technical Skill Isn't Enough — High technical mastery won't guarantee success if team dynamics and relationships are neglected or dysfunctional.4. Vulnerability Builds Excellence — When team members can safely show weaknesses and ask for help, everyone benefits, including patient outcomes.5. Money Isn't the Motivator — Financial rewards alone don't solve morale or performance issues; intrinsic motivators and appreciation matter more.6. Gratitude Is Powerful Medicine — Simple, genuine thank-yous are rare but transformative, fueling motivation, engagement, and mutual respect in healthcare teams.7. Speaking Up Saves Lives — Creating environments where all voices are heard—regardless of hierarchy—prevents errors and fosters innovation.8. Change Requires Leadership Buy-In — Cultural shifts succeed only when leaders acknowledge problems and model openness to feedback and improvement.9. Early Intervention Matters — Recognizing “the spiral” of team dysfunction early and addressing it promptly can prevent long-term damage and staff turnover.10. Healthcare Must Evolve — Emphasizing the human side of medicine—connection, gratitude, honest conversation—represents the future of safe, effective healthcare.Episode Timestamps03:58 — Career Shift in Healthcare Path06:41 — From Timid to Skilled Surgeon10:12 — Human Factors Impact Medical Outcomes14:33 — Creating a High-Performing Team19:10 — Building Trust for Departmental Progress22:37 — Surgical Trainee Silence Dilemma23:26 — Breaking Hierarchies: Encouraging Open Dialogue26:56 — Healthcare Organizations' Capacity for Change32:49 — Austrian Healthcare's Resistance to Change34:26 — Revolutionizing Healthcare Through Change37:54 — Targeting Female Leaders in HealthcareDISCLAMER >>>>>>    The Ditch Lab Coat podcast serves solely for general informational purposes and does not serve as a substitute for professional medical services such as medicine or nursing.

The Utah Spirit Team coach on their August 7th golf tournament and upcoming clinics utahspiritcamps.com

The Big Ten preseason poll is out, and Penn State has been picked for the No. 1 spot. On this episode, Jason Whitlock breaks down the rankings and argues that Nittany Lions head coach James Franklin is over-rated and will not, despite the hype, be winning the Big Ten championship. Franklin, who Whitlock labels the "Great Black Hope,” is the conference's Gerry Cooney: The wins on his record have been racked up against such non-heavy hitters as SMU and Boise State, while his teams' performance against top teams has been pitiful. PSU rival Ohio State is another Big Ten favorite, and Franklin's teams have a 1-10 record against the Buckeyes and eight straight losses. Later in the show, Whitlock discusses Jerry Jones' latest eyebrow-raising press conference and how the 82-year-old is now an old man incapable of not speaking the truth. Whitlock revisits the list of nominees for Purple Hearts earned by combating woke sports, as well as sports-fan demands submitted by listeners (and some they rejected). In the wake of The Cosby Show actor Malcolm-Jamal Warner's untimely death, Whitlock rounds out the show with a can't-miss rundown of the greatest-ever black sitcoms.

The woke elite may have won a few sports battles, but those on the side of sanity are making huge strides in the culture war. On this episode, Jason Whitlock recaps highlights from Shane Gillis' much-talked-about ESPY performance, during which the comedian dared to poke fun at topics the mainstream media has deemed untouchable. Whitlock gives credit where it's due by naming fellow warriors in the sporting world who have played the biggest part in winning this aspect of the culture war. Whitlock also stands up for the fans, noting how no one respects their voice, and issues a list of demands to put the nail in the woke coffin once and for all to make sports fan- and family-friendly again. Later, Steve Kim joins the show to discuss the surrender of woke sports, Shannon Sharpe inching his way back to ESPN, and if the Pittsburgh Steelers are going Super Bowl or bust this year.

Send us a textIn this important and timely episode, I welcome back journalist, author, and friend of the podcast, Peter Wehner. We dig into his provocative and widely discussed article in The Atlantic: “Why Evangelicals Turned Their Back on PEPFAR.”PEPFAR—President George W. Bush's historic global AIDS relief program—has saved over 26 million lives and prevented millions of HIV infections. Once championed by American evangelicals, the program is now in crisis. Under Donald Trump's second term, PEPFAR was effectively shut down. Clinics have closed, aid has stalled, and more than 75,000 lives have already been lost—with millions more at risk.So why the silence from the evangelical community?Peter and I explore the cultural, political, and theological reasons behind this shift—from compassion to indifference—and why this issue, which should unite pro-life Christians, has instead fallen off the radar. We also reflect on how partisan loyalty, fear of division, and moral inconsistency have muted the response to one of the most effective humanitarian programs in U.S. history.This conversation is urgent, eye-opening, and deeply relevant to anyone who cares about faith, politics, and the real-world impact of silence. I hope you'll join us. This is one you don't want to miss.

This short bonus episode is a side bar conversation with Dr. Tom Lee discussing why retail clinics are struggling with Dr. Tom Lee.  They explore the shortcomings of retail clinics in providing longitudinal primary care, despite their convenience for minor urgent care and vaccinations.  Dr. Lee emphasizes that true primary care requires consistent, long-term patient relationships and complex management which many retail clinics fail to deliver. They also discuss the economic challenges of running such clinics and the importance of defining primary care's value proposition correctly. === LINKS ===

In a week packed with political upheaval, conservative voices celebrate sweeping victories they attribute to Donald Trump's growing influence: Congress passes a historic $9.4B rollback targeting NPR, USAID, and unspent Biden-era funds; two major transgender clinics close; and California's high-speed rail project faces major defunding. Critics of USAID accuse it of fueling global chaos and terrorism, while advocates frame the budget cuts as the beginning of a larger crusade to dismantle the deep state. This episode captures the rising momentum behind America First policies and the backlash to progressive institutions.

In a sweeping wave of conservative victories, Congress has passed the first federal spending rollback in 25 years—rescinding $9.4 billion in unused COVID, climate, and foreign aid funds. Major targets include NPR, USAID, and left-leaning nonprofits, with cuts hailed as a crucial step in dismantling what critics call the “deep state.” Meanwhile, two high-profile transgender clinics shut down amid growing scrutiny, and California's troubled high-speed rail project faces defunding. Championed by Trump and celebrated by right-wing voices, these actions are framed as the beginning of a broader America First resurgence—reclaiming taxpayer dollars, gutting globalist programs, and reversing decades of progressive policy influence.

In a sweeping political shift, Congress passes a $9.4 billion rescission bill—the first in 25 years—slashing funds from NPR, USAID, and unspent Biden-era programs. Paired with the closure of two major transgender clinics and renewed efforts to defund California's high-speed rail, conservatives celebrate what they call the start of dismantling the deep state. Fueled by Trump's influence, this coordinated rollback of progressive institutions marks a pivotal moment in America First policymaking, as critics warn of growing culture war tensions.

In a dramatic turning point for fiscal and cultural policy, Congress enacts a $9.4 billion rescission—the first since 1999—eliminating funds for NPR, USAID, and unused climate and COVID programs. Simultaneously, two prominent transgender clinics announce closure, and California's high-speed rail project faces defunding. Conservative commentators hail these events as victories for Trump's America First agenda and the beginning of a deep-state rollback. Critics warn the moves are politically charged and harmful to vulnerable communities, but for many on the right, the reckoning has only just begun.

Congress approves a historic $9.4 billion rollback—the first in a generation—targeting NPR, USAID, and unused Biden-era funds, signaling a sharp turn toward America First budgeting. The cuts come alongside the closure of two major transgender clinics and renewed attacks on California's stalled high-speed rail. Backed by Trump and celebrated by conservative commentators, the moves are hailed as the beginning of a deep state dismantling. Critics argue the cuts are symbolic, but the right sees them as proof that a new political era is taking shape.

As soon as President Trump signed his tax-cut and spending package into law on July 4, one of the ways it impacted Oregon was to immediately make all Planned Parenthood clinics ineligible to receive Medicaid reimbursement for one year. In Oregon, those reimbursements make up approximately 70% of budgets. That is, if they continued to perform abortions - even for the approximately 90 percent of health care services that are not abortion related. Planned Parenthood sued the Trump administration and got a temporary injunction - but that’s set to expire at the end of this week. In Washington state, Gov. Bob Ferguson has committed to backfilling the loss for clinics in that state for one year. We talk with Sara Kennedy, President and CEO of Planned Parenthood Columbia Willamette, which runs nine clinics in the region, about the impact of the expected Medicaid cuts and what alternatives might be available.

In this episode, Drex covers three critical healthcare cybersecurity developments. Cyber attackers are shifting focus from hospitals to smaller physician practices and specialty groups that lack robust defenses, with attacks now directly targeting EHRs and patient portals at the point of care. The May 2025 breach report shows 45 healthcare providers reported breaches in a single month, primarily through network server attacks and unauthorized email access. Finally, healthcare organizations are rushing into AI implementation without proper data governance, creating amplified risks when pulling in massive datasets without understanding ownership and consent structures.Remember, Stay a Little Paranoid X: This Week Health LinkedIn: This Week Health Donate: Alex's Lemonade Stand: Foundation for Childhood Cancer

Welcome back to Ditch the Lab Coat, the podcast where we break down the fascinating world of medicine with a blend of scientific skepticism and real-world insight. In today's episode, we dive deep into the mysteries of the vagus nerve—a nerve so ancient and essential, it's been called the “conductor” in the symphony of human physiology.Join host Dr. Mark Bonta as he sits down with Dr. Kevin Tracey, neurosurgeon, president and CEO of the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research, and a pioneer in the world of bioelectronic medicine. Dr. Tracey's breakthrough research has shown us that the vagus nerve is far more than just a conduit for signals—it's a key player in managing inflammation, regulating our immune system, and maybe even shaping the future of medicine.In this conversation, you'll explore the mind-bending complexity of the nervous system, discover how cutting-edge science is redefining how we treat diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and long Covid, and learn how a tiny chip implanted in the neck might one day replace whole classes of immune-suppressing drugs. Dr. Tracey shares metaphors, straight talk about medical myths, and a vision for a future where reprogramming the body's reflexes could offer relief to millions.Get ready for a journey that's equal parts awe-inspiring and practical, as we unpack the true potential (and real-world considerations) of harnessing the vagus nerve's power. Whether you're a healthcare professional, a science nerd, or just someone searching for new answers, this episode invites you to see medicine in a whole new way. Resources : ( https://feinstein.northwell.edu/ )Episode HighlightsVagus Nerve Complexity Unveiled — We're only scratching the surface of understanding the vagus nerve's vast, intricate network and its essential bodily roles.Inflammation: Friend and Foe — Inflammation is vital short-term, but when uncontrolled, it's destructive and underlies many autoimmune and chronic diseases.Nervous-Immune System Interplay — The nervous and immune systems communicate reflexively, with nerves directly capable of controlling immune and inflammatory responses.Bioelectronic Treatments Emerge — Vagus nerve stimulation—via implanted chips—shows promise for conditions like rheumatoid arthritis without full-body immunosuppression risks.Individualized Nerve Fiber Functions — Each of the 200,000 vagus fibers controls specific functions, forming a body-wide symphony of precision responses.Not All Self-Help Fits — Lifestyle hacks can support vagus health, but serious disease often requires targeted nerve stimulation, not general wellness.Caution Against Online Misinformation — Vagus nerve advice online is often oversimplified or inaccurate; nuance and scientific backing are essential.Lifestyle Still Matters — Balanced diet, sleep, exercise, and community all help regulate vagus nerve tone and reduce chronic stress.Future Disease Applications Possible — Vagus stimulation may treat IBD, MS, and neurodegenerative or psychiatric conditions as research evolves.Episode Timestamps6:25 — Exploring Nervous System Complexity9:08 — Vagus Nerve Controls Inflammation11:05 — Vagus Nerve: Brain Signals Control Inflammation15:45 — Nervous System's Role in Immunity20:43 — Understanding Your Vagus Nerves23:25 — Vagus Nerve Health and Research25:12 — Vagus Nerve Stimulation Insights29:36 — Vagus Nerve Stimulator: Inflammation Therapy32:13 — Neurotransmitter Effects on Cytokine Production38:22 — Minimizing Nerve Damage in Surgery39:30 — Vagus Nerve Stimulation Benefits43:42 — Exploring Vagus Nerve Mysteries46:42 — Vagus Nerve Stimulation for Autoimmune Diseases50:52 — Cold Plunges & Bioelectrical Future DISCLAMER >>>>>>    The Ditch Lab Coat podcast serves solely for general informational purposes and does not serve as a substitute for professional medical services such as medicine or nursing.

Vermonters overwhelmingly voted to enshrine reproductive rights in the state constitution in 2022. But what if those rights – to abortion, birth control and other reproductive health services – are nearly impossible to access?Putting care out of reach appears to be the strategy behind the Trump administration's relentless assault on Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest provider of reproductive health care. President Trump's “big beautiful bill” that he signed into law on July 4 includes a provision to defund Planned Parenthood and other organizations that provide abortions. A federal judge has temporarily blocked this provision, but if the Trump administration prevails, Planned Parenthood says that numerous health care centers may close, mostly in states where abortion remains legal.This compounds a problem in Vermont, since half of Planned Parenthood's clinics in the state have closed in the last three years due to an ongoing financial crisis with Planned Parenthood of Northern New England (PPNNE).Medicaid already bans funding for abortions. Most of Planned Parenthood's Medicaid patients who obtain family planning services receive birth control and STI testing. One in four Planned Parenthood patients in Vermont and Maine are insured by Medicaid, and one in five in New Hampshire.“The absurdity of all of this is just so transparent,” Nicole Clegg, CEO of Planned Parenthood of Northern New England, told The Vermont Conversation. “We have long-lasting relationships with our patients. We could be their main provider for years … and to suddenly be told, ‘Sorry, you can't go to that provider anymore because they also provide abortion care' — that's what's happening here. That's the goal.”Clegg emphasized that “the overwhelming majority of what we're providing to patients are disease testing and treatment, cancer screenings, wellness exams, birth control. Those are the primary needs that people have during their reproductive years.”Abortion opponents are “no longer interested in the states where they've been successful in banning abortion. They're now really focused on the states where abortion is still legal, so that includes Vermont, and what they're trying to do is go after providers. So that's the new tactic,” Clegg said.She noted that people seeking an abortion in states where it is banned are increasingly coming to New England for care. She told the story of a couple seeking an abortion who drove from Oklahoma to Vermont “because they felt like that was going to be the safest option for them.”“We live in an area of the country where we are a little bit insulated from this fear, but this fear is very real.”What is motivating the attacks?“It's about abortion. It's about controlling people and their ability to make decisions and decide when to have a family,” Clegg replied.A 2024 Pew survey found that two out of three Americans – and 79% of Vermonters – believe that abortion should be legal in all or most cases.“We needed to sort of wake people up by having them lose these basic rights. That's where we are right now.”One in three women have received care from Planned Parenthood in their lifetime, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation. “There's just no other healthcare provider in our country that has that kind of reach and impact,” Clegg said.I asked Clegg what a world without Planned Parenthood would look like. She cited research on what has happened in areas where a Planned Parenthood health center has closed.“Worse pregnancy outcomes. Increased rates of cancer. Increased rates of unintended pregnancy. Untreated sexually transmitted diseases. Increased rates of HIV and AIDS.”Will Planned Parenthood survive?Clegg noted that this year marks Planned Parenthood's 60th anniversary. “We have touched the lives of more than a million people” in northern New England, she said. “I fundamentally believe we will get through this because people support us. People want to come to us for care. We are embedded in our states and a part of our community in deep ways. We matter too much for our states and our communities to just accept that we would close our doors.”

Hospitals in the MidWest are facing significant pressure to retain blood stocks amid the hot spell. It comes as the Irish Blood Transfusion Service is holding donation clinics at the West County Hotel in Ennis from ten to 5 until ten past 8, both tonight and tomorrow night. Last year, Clare's donations helped over 12,000 patients, many of whom were undergoing chemotherapy and childbirth, while others were victims of serious accidents. Broadford based IBTS Donor Recruitment Executive Alex O'Connor says every donation is vital at this time of year.

What if one of your employees goes viral on TikTok... for all the wrong reasons? This week on The Veterinary Viewfinder, Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, MPA, RVT, dive into a modern dilemma facing every veterinary clinic: what happens when an employee's personal behavior triggers public outrage, and suddenly your phones are blowing up with angry calls? Inspired by a real-world Fourth of July viral incident (yes, involving antipasto salad), Ward and Mossor explore how personal conduct outside of work is increasingly spilling into the professional arena. They discuss the legal, ethical, and emotional chaos that can follow, and how practice managers and clinic owners can proactively prepare for it. This conversation goes far beyond animal-related controversies. From racist remarks and political opinions to OnlyFans accounts and internet mob justice, today's episode tackles the complex intersection of social media, privacy, team culture, and mental health. You'll hear practical advice for building internal response plans, supporting affected staff, protecting your clinic's reputation, and knowing when it's time to call an attorney. Because in 2025, being unprepared isn't just naïve, it could be dangerous.
