In Maraña: War and Disease in the Jungles of Colombia (University of Chicago Press, 2025), Lina Pinto-García delves into the relationship between war and disease, focusing on Colombian armed conflict and the skin disease known as cutaneous leishmaniasis. Leishmaniasis is transmitted through the bite of female sandflies. The most common manifestation, cutaneous leishmaniasis, is neither deadly nor contagious: it affects the skin by producing lesions of varying size and shape. In Colombia, the insect vector of the disease is native to the same forested environments that have served as the main stage for one of the longest and most violent civil wars in Latin American history. As a result, the populations most affected by leishmaniasis in Colombia are members of the state army and non-state armed groups.  Pinto-García explores how leishmaniasis and the armed conflict are inextricably connected and mutually reinforcing. Her title, Maraña, means "tangle" in Spanish but is also commonly used in Colombia to name the entangled greenery, braided lianas, and dense foliage that characterize the tropical forests where leishmaniasis typically occurs. Pinto-García argues that leishmaniasis and the war are not merely linked, but enmarañadas to each other through narratives, technologies, and practices produced by the state, medicine, biomedical research, and the armed conflict itself. She also uses the concept of desenmarañados (disentangled) to discuss how other attachments between leishmaniasis and society could be formed through different scientific programs, technological designs, healthcare practices, regulations, and social and cultural processes capable of challenging violence, suffering, and inequality. All told, Maraña is a passionate study of how war has shaped the production of scientific knowledge about leishmaniasis and access to its treatments in Colombia. This episode is hosted by Elena Sobrino, a lecturer in the Science and Technology Studies Program at Tufts University. Her research explores volunteer work, union histories, and environmentalism in the Flint water crisis. She is currently writing about the politics of fatigue and crisis, and teaching courses on science and technology studies, ethnographies of crisis, and global racisms.

In this episode, Alex starts by talking about how a potential ceasefire deal has been reached between Ukraine and the United States. Now the pressure is on Russia to agree to the 30-day ceasefire. Next, Alex mentions that the House will be voting today to prevent a government shutdown. Speaker Johnson still faces some internal opposition ahead of the vote. For the rest of the episode, Alex talks about how the Trump Administration is going after left-wing antisemitism because it is left-wing rhetoric and not because the administration actually wants to combat hateful rhetoric. Alex uses examples such as MAGA defending and protecting people that have used racist/antisemitic rhetoric on their side, but now threatening to deport activists that are being label terrorists. Alex talks about the troubling situation with Mahmoud Khalil's detention. He also talks about the administration defending Colombia University. He thinks MAGA is using antisemitism as a pretext to limit the free speech of its opponents.

Addiction can be devastating not only for the addict themselves, but also for their loved ones and anyone around them. But what causes it, and how should we treat it? According to Dr Elias Dakwar, a psychologist based at Colombia University, New York, we should be looking beyond the commonly held brain disease model of addiction and deeper into its philosophical or existential underpinnings. In this episode, we speak to Dr Dakwar about the years of clinical research he outlines in his latest book The Captive Imagination: Addiction, reality and our search for meaning. He tells us about his thinking on how addiction stems from our desire for happiness and feelings of meaningless, how it fits in with the notion of personal freedom, and details some of his work with clinical patients in treating addiction in new ways. Warning: Recreational drug use can be dangerous to your health and possession of certain controlled substances in the UK can result in an unlimited fine, prison sentence or both.

The protest and encampment at Colombia University in solidarity with Gaza has spread in just 2 weeks to universities across the country and has become what students are calling the popular university for Palestine movement. On Monday, students at UAlbany held a rally in solidarity with the movement. Moses Nagel reports on the rally and speaks with Barbara Smith for some context.

Ben Stein and co-host Judah Friedman are joined by former Trump EPA chief of staff to discuss the lack of adults and courage among disillusioned youth at Colombia University. We all agree Colombia has really gone downhill since producing the one and only Ben Stein. Plus, Pecker's testimony against president trump falls flat and makes clear that the New York case is as unserious as the National Inquirer is about politics. And we continue to ask the question, where are republicans in stepping up to call out the absurdity of the Left and ruthlessly defend our greatest ally – Israel. Bueller? Bueller? Unfortunately, the Dems are better at the power game, and so much more.

The nation is watching our college campuses become centers of student protest, demonstration, and disruption over the issue of Israel and their war in Gaza. This movement began as an effort at Colombia University by students to demand that their school separate financially from the nation of Israel. But it's turned into something more demanding and more disruptive. Boyd talks about the grievance culture overwhelming discussion in American politics.

A true polymath, Moran started out in the Israeli military, in one of their elite intelligence units. Then ended up working as a hacker in computer security. And to this day is still in demand for that, but he had a weird experience when Francis Crick told him to junk hacking and get into working on neuroscience, and he did. And so Moran's had this amazing career some of the research that underpins things like Neuralink. These days, he's a professor in the business school at Columbia, where we recorded this conversation. I can't tell you how delightful Moran is. Super smart. Very insightful. Incredibly curious. He is difficult to pin down whenever I'm with him. He is somehow so good at asking questions and picking my brain that I hardly ever get to pick his brain. So the podcast was a perfect excuse to put him on the spot and I'm really thrilled that we get to share this with you guys. You'll notice that Moran still has a bit of an Israeli accent and he talks faster than anybody I've ever met. So most of you guys are used to putting podcasts on 2X. This one you might want to put on 0.5X.

One of the biggest challenges many CEOs and startup founders face is effectively communicating their company's vision to their employees. It can be difficult to help everyone understand where the company is headed and how it can contribute to its success. However, by helping employees connect with their inner selves and bridge the gap between self-awareness and social awareness, leaders can leverage the strengths of their team members and prepare them to speak to the company's vision. This means communicating effectively, helping people understand and embody the company's message, and building their skills to support its goals. You don't need to be perfect, but by giving a clear impression and showing your credibility, trust, and respect in your communication, you can effectively lead your team toward success.Join the conversation with Chuck Garcia as he shares more about Internal communication, emotional Intelligence, the foundations of good communication, and how to leverage the people that work with you to get ahead.

We ask him: • Can you communicate faster in some languages than others, or is there some constraint that prevents that? • Does learning a second or third language make you smarter or not? • Can a language decay and get worse at communicating what people want to say? • If children aren't taught a language, how many generations does it take them to invent a fully fledged one of their own? • Did Shakespeare write in a foreign language, and if so, should we translate his plays? • How much does language really shape the way we think? • Are creoles the best languages in the world — languages that ideally we would all speak? • What would be the optimal number of languages globally? • Does trying to save dying languages do their speakers a favour, or is it more of an imposition? • Should we bother to teach foreign languages in UK and US schools? • Is it possible to save the important cultural aspects embedded in a dying language without saving the language itself? • Will AI models speak a language of their own in the future, one that humans can't understand but which better serves the tradeoffs AI models need to make? We then put some of these questions to ChatGPT itself, asking it to play the role of a linguistics professor at Colombia University. We've also added John's talk “Why the World Looks the Same in Any Language” to the end of this episode. So stick around after the credits! And if you'd rather see Rob and John's facial expressions or beautiful high cheekbones while listening to this conversation, you can watch the video of the full conversation here.

The world seems to be moving faster and faster but there is always a need to plan for the longer arc of life. Having a strategy lets you set short goals while achieving progress toward your longer ones. Now more than ever people need to be intentional about the strategies they use in creating a career. Building these strategies in different areas of your life is what today's episode is all about.Dorie Clark is a teacher at Duke and Colombia University's business schools, a speaker who has given lectures from Harvard Business School to Google HQ, and a prolific author of the books Stand Out, Reinventing You, Entrepreneurial You, and her newest book The Long Game: How to Be a Long-Term Thinker in a Short-Term World. Dorie and Greg talk about playing the long game, and what that means in your business life and personal life. They also talk about what it looks like to think long term in a world where short term needs are always pressing, and how to think about time allocation for the important things in life.Episode Quotes:The power of stories for behavioral change24:08: A story is a really good way to get in the side door. So that it's essentially evading people's objections because if you're telling somebody: “research says…”, "Do this or do that," there's often just a lot of backlash that people have:” I couldn't do that.” But if they're hearing a narrative, which is not, "Oh, you have to do this," but it's, "Well, here, let me tell you about somebody you know, like you, who did that thing," And they realize, it's a lot less threatening of a way to present information, and it lets it roll around in people's brains and say, "Oh, I'm not that different from that person. Maybe I could try it.' And that can become really powerful.02:48: There's almost no one in the world that thinks that strategy is a bad thing. It's not like there's an anti-strategy contingent arguing against it. Everybody thinks it's good. Everybody pays lip service to it. But the problem is that almost no one does it.Why do we need a coach?25:38: The answer is we don't always. Sometimes a book is perfectly sufficient for what you want to do. It depends on how important the issue is to you and how detailed of an instruction you require.Overweighting our short-term thinking can be a liability17:50: If we're investing money, if we're investing our finances, everybody understands that if your portfolio is overweight in a certain asset, that may be great while that asset is performing well, but it is extremely dangerous over the long term because there probably is going to be some reversal.Show Links:Guest Profile:Instructor's Profile on UdemySpeaker's Profile on TEDTalkSpeaker's Profile on WeSpeakersDorie Clark's WebsiteThe Long Game: Your Stretegic Thinking Self-AssessmentDorie Clark on LinkedInDorie Clark on TwitterDorie on YoutubeDorie Clark on YoutubeDorie Clark on TEDXBostonTrajectory MastermindHer Work:Articles on Harvard Business ReviewThe Long Game: How to Be a Long-Term Thinker in a Short-Term WorldReinventing You, With a New Preface: Define Your Brand, Imagine Your FutureEntrepreneurial You: Monetize Your Expertise, Create Multiple Income Streams, and Thrive

Nimesh Patel tells us about the joke that got him kick out of Colombia University, the real story of how he almost died on a city bike, and he gives advice to our viewers.

One subject causes more friction in the world of the supernatural more than any other; Possession. Cultures and religions throughout history and all across the world can point to examples in both the written word and their oral traditions yet in the modern era, possession is often dismissed as mass hysteria, religious propaganda or mental illness. Yet, Dt Richard Gallagher, a professor of psychiatry at New York Memorial and pyschoanalyst at Colombia University isn't so sure it should be so easily dismissed. In his book. Demonic Foes, Dr Gallagher lifts the lid on his work in this field over the last 30 years and is now considered the leading scientific expert on possession. We discuss some of the cases he has been involved in over this period along with his medical expertise in verifying just what makes these rare cases genuine.

Today we have one of the greatest, contemporary Hmong authors with us: Kao Kalia Yang.Kalia was born in December 1980 in Thailand's Ban Vinai refugee camp, which is the same camp where Yia was born. Her family came to Minnesota in 1987.In 2003, she graduated from Carleton College and then received her Master's in Creative Nonfiction from Colombia University soon after that.Kalia has published numerous nonfiction works and children's books since 2008, and it was in that year that she released one of her greatest works: The Latehomecomer, which is a memoir that tells of her family's harrowing escape from the war in Laos. She's also known for The Song Poet, which follows the life of her father, through his most tragic and most joyous moments.Before we get started today, there's one quick note I want to share about today's episode.Somehow or another, Kalia really got Yia to open up his emotions and much of this podcast is him in a very vulnerable state: speaking about his hopes, his fears, and of course, his family.As a result, Yia speaks much more than Kalia and near the end, it begins to feel like she's the host, interviewing him.There is so much that we didn't cover with Kalia and we hope to have her on again soon. Until then, please appreciate this vulnerable moment of two people opening up to each other.-If you enjoy the show, let us know by leaving a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.Be sure to check out the show on Instagram and Facebook.Oh, and our YouTube channel is finally here!-Produced by Gleam Tower MediaAll music courtesy of Artlist

Huberman Lab Podcast Notes Key Takeaways The inherent goal of the taste system is to get nutrients to survive – attracted to the ones we need, aversion to the ones that may kill usTaste is predetermined: parts of the brain will experience the full behavioral stimulus, even if activated when only ingesting water“I don't believe obesity is a disease of metabolism, I believe obesity is a disease of brain circuits.” – Dr. Charles ZukerSugar molecules activate the “gut-brain axis” which drives the preference for sugarArtificial sweeteners fail to curb the appetite for sugar because they work on the tongue to recognize sweetsness but do not activate sensors in the gut which satisfy the cravingDiseases of malnutrition today are linked to overnutrition (of processed foods), not the actual absence of foodHighly processed foods highjack the gut-brain axis, continuously reinforcing “wanting”Read the full notes @ podcastnotes.orgMy guest this episode is Dr. Charles Zuker, PhD, Professor of Biochemistry, Molecular Biophysics and Neuroscience at Colombia University and an Investigator with the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. Dr. Zuker is the world's leading expert in the biology of taste, thirst and craving. His laboratory explores the mechanisms of taste perception, focusing on how our conscious and unconscious processing of specific foods and nutrients guide our actions and behaviors. We discuss the neural circuits of taste, the “gut-brain axis,” the basis of food cravings and the key difference between wanting (craving) and liking (perceiving) sugar. We also explore how taste perception relates to specific food satiety, thirst, to our emotions, and expectation. We also consider how sugar containing and highly-processed foods can hijack the natural balance of the taste and digestive systems. Dr. Zuker provides a true masterclass in the biology of taste and perception that ought to be of interest to anyone curious about how the brain works, our motivated behaviors and the neural, chemical perceptual aspects of the mind.

In a world of distractions, hyperactivity, and burnout, many of us yearn for rest from our work and our devices. To find this rest, many have turned to the Jewish practice of shabbat or sabbath, ceasing at least some of their regular activity during one day of the week. Kelsey Osgood, a graduate of Colombia University and Goucher College, is a writer and practicing Orthodox Jew. In this episode, Dru and Kelsey discuss her recent article, "Why Your 'Digital Shabbat' Will Fail." Kelsey argues that resting in religious community, rather than as an individual—and not merely for personal reasons, but because God requires it—is a practice that, though difficult, is deeply beneficial. Show notes: 0:00 Preparing for Shabbat 5:35 Discussing Kelsey's recent article 9:00 Two major problems with an individual "digital shabbat" 12:56 Narcissism disguised as self-care 14:19 Can individual Christians practice shabbat? 19:28 The discomfort of practicing Judaism 22:47 The benefits of practicing shabbat Show notes by Micah Long Credits for the music used in TBM podcast can be found at: hebraicthought.org/credits.

Dorie Clark teaches executive education at Duke University's Fuqua School of Business and Colombia University's Graduate School of Business. She is the author of 5 books including Entrepreneurial You and Reinventing You. Clark has been named one of top 50 business thinkers by Thinkers50. In her latest book The Long Game: How to Be a Long-Term Thinker in a Short-Term World Clark explains how almost anything is attainable through small, methodical steps taken day by day. She urges her readers to optimize for interesting, as a first step in discovering one's passion, suggesting that if one keeps optimizing their choices for things that feel interesting, it begins to carve a path to reaching something purposeful. Clark suggests three core arguments to achieve long term success and purpose, including creating white space; the act of opening ones mind to new opportunities, focus where it counts; the ability to decided which goals are the right ones, and, lastly, keeping the faith; the act of deploying strategic patience and sustaining effort in the face of adversity. Joining Martin Reeves, Chairman of BCG Henderson Institute, Clark dives deeper into the challenges of long-term thinking and finding one's purpose through everyday steps forward. *** About the BCG Henderson Institute The BCG Henderson Institute is the Boston Consulting Group's think tank, dedicated to exploring and developing valuable new insights from business, technology, economics, and science by embracing the powerful technology of ideas.
