On New Year's Day, 11-year-old Lee Siwoo wrote down his resolutions for 2023. He wanted to pass his exams, spend time with his family, and disappear quickly. A month later, paramedics found him unresponsive on the floor of his home. When they cut open his pajama shirt to begin CPR, they saw the bruises covering his emaciated body.

Stephanie Melgozza was a 24 year old woman from Illinois that killed 2 innocent pedestrians, Paul Prowant, 55, and his girlfriend, 43-year-old Andrea Rosewicz. When police got to the scene both Andrea and Paul were declared as deceased on the scene even after many attempts of CPR. When police spoke with Stephanie about the crash, she was clearly very intoxicated, slurring her words and laughing the entire time during her field sobriety tests. Stephanie was made aware multiple times that she had hit and murdered 2 people but refuses to listen to police and instead keeps insisting that she didn't. Stephanie was taken to the station when things would only get more concerning when she continues to talk to officers about her girls trip in Vegas coming up and when she can get her car back for school, still oblivious to the severity of the situation.

2020 was an extraordinary year for the Colorado legislature. COVID-19 forced lawmakers to break halfway through session. They returned to work in May with a short list of priorities: balance the budget and respond to the pandemic. But almost immediately, the Capitol became the epicenter of protests over the killings of George Floyd and other Black people at the hands of police. The chants of “Black lives matter” outside the statehouse walls pushed lawmakers to take up the issue of police reform that summer. They ultimately wrote and passed an ambitious bipartisan bill, which included body camera requirements and deadly force use limits. The governor signed into law within weeks.CPR's Bente Birkeland looks at what made this major piece of police accountability legislation possible and, along with CPR's Ben Markus, examines the law's impact in the five years since.Read more: How protests over George Floyd's death led Colorado to rewrite its rules for policingPurplish is produced by CPR News and the Capitol News Alliance, a collaboration between KUNC News, Colorado Public Radio, Rocky Mountain PBS, and The Colorado Sun, and shared with Rocky Mountain Community Radio and other news organizations across the state.

With June being National Safety Month, a time dedicated to focusing on safety as a core value, and the first week holding special significance as National CPR and AED Awareness Week, Emily is joined today by Brian Goepfert, a former MSHA Administrator for Enforcement and volunteer firefighter. Together, they discuss just how vital CPR and AED training can be in saving a life, and Brian shares a very personal CPR safety story that truly brings home why these skills are so important. Brian paints a clear picture of what happens during a cardiac event and how immediate action, with CPR and an AED, can quite literally be the difference between life and death. He talks about those crucial first few minutes, especially when professional medical help might be delayed, such as at remote mine sites or pits. The conversation explores how CPR keeps oxygen moving to the brain and vital organs when the heart cannot, and how an AED works to shock the heart back into a healthy rhythm. This isn't just about procedures; it is about giving everyday people, bystanders, the confidence to step in and make a profound difference. Main Themes: CPR's impact on a person's chance of surviving cardiac arrest The critical role of an AED Why every single minute counts Bystander intervention The frequency and locations where cardiac events occur Brian's story where quick CPR and AED use saved a life CPR training Why keeping training current is important Toolbox Talk Discussion Questions: Brian starts by discussing how CPR and AED training equips people with skills that can improve someone's chances of surviving a cardiac event. How many of us are currently CPR and AED certified? Brian shares the importance of bystander intervention and how having the CPR and AED training means a bystander can intervene and provide assistance until professionals can arrive. How does this mentality work alongside our industry's key value of safety? Does anyone have a story they would like to share about CPR and AED training? Key Takeaways: "With immediate action, CPR and AED does increase a person's chance of survival, especially when professional help is delayed." "When properly and promptly administered, CPR can double, even triple, a victim's chance of survival during a cardiac arrest." "AED is also critical, just as critical as CPR in that it helps restart or put the heart back into a normal, healthy rhythm." "Training empowers bystanders to become immediate responders, reducing the time until professional help arrives." "Confidence beats panicking in emergencies." "There are about 10,000 heart attacks that occur in U.S. workplaces, including remote mining operations, where professional rescue services are usually not readily available." "...early CPR and AED administration saved that patient's life. The patient did recover and went on to live a fulfilling life." "CPR and AED training are essential life saving skills that anyone should learn." "Even if you've been CPR trained before, guidelines and directions can and do change... So please keep up on the latest guidelines." Links: National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association website Brian Goepfert: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brian-goepfert-cmsp-4ab72034b/
Mid-Year Reset: Strategies to Transform Your Life in Six Months To create your best six months ever, it is essential to start by defining what "best" means for you personally. This involves taking the time to reflect on your desires, aspirations, and what success looks like in your life. Tonya Leigh emphasizes that many people fail to define success clearly, which can lead to feelings of dissatisfaction and confusion. By asking yourself, "If I woke up six months from now and said this was my best season yet, what would have made it so?" you can gain clarity on the specific outcomes and experiences you want to achieve. Tonya reflects on the halfway point of 2025 and encourages listeners to evaluate their feelings about the year so far. She shares her personal experience of needing a reset after feeling off track and discusses the importance of shifting one's perspective to create the best next six months. Tune in for insights on becoming more of your authentic self and setting the stage for an empowered second half of the year.

Real Life Things kicked off with stories from Friday night's bonfire, where the nature of reality was hotly debated between toasted marshmallows. That conversation somehow spiraled into a serious (and slightly absurd) discussion about Noodles and Soba—Ben's son's pet rats—and the potential benefits of getting female rats fixed. Apparently, doing so can add about a year to their lifespan by preventing reproductive cancers, but the surgery's cost is a tough sell when you're in what Ben called “debt paydown mode.” Devon floated the idea of unscrupulous “rat hustlers” faking the procedure, which—frankly—feels like a dark Netflix documentary waiting to happen. From there, it was a short hop to a conversation about whether rats lay eggs (they don't), Jurassic Park's “life finds a way,” and then straight into tearing apart Gremlins logic. What even is “midnight,” anyway? Local time? Greenwich Mean? Galactic zenith? And why are we trusting a kid instead of the old shopkeeper? Gremlins may now officially live in the “science fantasy/biological fiction” corner of the canon. Saturday brought gaming with their friend Greg. They played Relic Blade, where Devon managed to escort a yak to safety despite Steven's attempts at sabotage. Greg used a clever trick involving a D20 and gravity to determine movement direction, which frankly should be in the rulebook. They also played Marvel Dice Throne, where Devon's Wolverine got obliterated almost immediately thanks to poor positioning and cruel dice. Then came Living Well, a minimalist dice game with retro 70s-style art and some satisfying ability upgrades. Plans to play Arcs got shelved after a medical emergency—Nicole was hit hard by the heat and ended up needing CPR at the hospital (despite having a pulse and breathing, which… yeah, it was a weird night). She's recovering now. Future or Now TV-wise, the gang wrapped up Season 4 of Love, Death & Robots—with highlights including a talking cat, an occult bomber mission, and gang warfare against colossal babies. Over on Amazon Prime, they watched the Secret Level take on Pac-Man, which was surprisingly grim and humanoid-heavy. Ben and his son also dove into Scott Pilgrim territory, rewatching the movie and starting Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, which quickly turns into a clever alternate universe story that's fun, stylish, and charming enough to inspire a trip through the graphic novels. Ben gave a thumbs-up to the newest season of Black Mirror, calling one episode a bit conceptually broken but championing another as a "new Callister." Book Club In Book Club, the crew dug into “Liking What You See: A Documentary” by Ted Chiang, from Stories of Your Life and Others. Framed as a mockumentary, the story centers on Caliagnosia—a reversible condition that disables facial beauty perception. The ethical and social ramifications are explored through interviews and propaganda, making the story feel eerily real. It raises questions about freedom, superficiality, advertising, and the influence of unseen tech on our minds. Tamara's personal journey through switching Cali off and on again added a human element to the philosophical questions. Everyone agreed: it was a banger of a story. Next up for Book Club: the first three chapters of A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers. Get reading!
Each year, more than 350,000 people experience out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in the U.S. That's why there's a lot of focus on saving lives through CPR and AED training.

Patient advocate Lianne Mandelbaum discusses her article, "What Avarie's death in Rome teaches us about the gaps in food allergy education." Lianne reflects on the tragic death of Avarie, a young American student with a known tree nut allergy who died in Rome due to anaphylaxis, contrasting this loss with the promising advancements in food allergy research and treatment. She meticulously outlines the systemic failures in Avarie's case: despite informing the restaurant of her allergy, she was served pesto containing cashew; her first epinephrine auto-injector reportedly failed; and the responding ambulance lacked the appropriate medication. Lianne underscores how lived experience with anaphylaxis shapes risk perception and highlights the urgent need for comprehensive, lifelong food allergy education starting from a young age. This education must cover crucial skills such as safe food ordering, self-advocacy in various settings including when studying abroad, and clear emergency response protocols. She points to a pervasive societal underestimation of food allergies and calls for widespread education at all levels—for patients, families, schools, universities, the hospitality industry, physicians across specialties to ensure timely allergist referrals, and particularly for first responders to be properly equipped and trained. Lianne advocates for making the knowledge and use of epinephrine as normalized and accessible as CPR, urging the community to translate knowledge into action to prevent further avoidable deaths.

What happens when a summer day on the river turns into every family's worst nightmare? In this gripping true story, you'll hear firsthand accounts of the terrifying moment Enrique — a 24-year-old college student affectionately known as Gordo — vanished beneath the surface of Oregon's Siuslaw River and didn't come back up. With no cell service, no emergency response nearby, and the clock ticking, panic swept through the crowd. Told through the voices of his sister Angie and a bystander named Ann, this episode unpacks the emotional rollercoaster of a near-fatal drowning and the heroic efforts of complete strangers who fought to save him.
Along with early defibrillation, high quality CPR with minimal interruptions is one of the two factors that has been shown to improve cardiac arrest outcomes.How do we know if high quality, effective CPR is being performed?Objective measures of high-quality CPR include:Compression rate;Compression depth & recoil;ETCO2; and Chest Compression Fraction (CCF).The role of the CPR Coach on the code team.The advantages and use of real-time feedback devices to monitor the rate, depth, and chest recoil of CPR compressions.The use of end tidal waveform capnography.

Welcome back to June 2025's papers podcast! Having been cynical about CPR feedback devices in the past we take a look at a recent paper on their use and their potential impact to both ROSC and survival for patients, when compared to standard practice; is it time to integrate them more definitively into our practice? Next up we take another look at the use of adrenaline in traumatic arrest. We've covered this before and there's some interesting data and discussion to be had around the topic and the paper. Finally, we all know about the unprecidented pressure on ED's and all forms of healthcare at the moment. Many patients waiting for hours and hours to be seen. But there may be systems and routes by which others can be identified with lower acuity presentations that may not need to wait overnight for long periods, and our final paper looks at this with a paper on 'deflection'. Once again we'd love to hear any thoughts or feedback either on the website or via X @TheResusRoom! Simon & Rob
A Long Talk About the Uncomfortable Truth was developed by two black fathers in the wake of George Floyd's murder in May 2020, during a moment of national reckoning. There was a collective national and international outcry, but there was also a gap between intention and action. People wanted to help but didn't know where to start. In light of the Black Lives Matter movement, USRowing came to terms with its own limitations when it came to talking about – and taking action around – diversity, equity, and inclusion. A Long Talk gives space to have the conversations that people are afraid to have. They lead activation experiences designed to empower participants with knowledge and skills to interrupt problematic thinking and behaviors. Kamal Carter and Kyle Williams, founders of A Long Talk, are not rowers, but they are proud to be a USRowing Unity Partner, and working with rowing programs across the country.

On a spring morning in May 2013, Dick and Ruth Foth's life changed forever. While gathered with longtime friends in Estes Park, Colorado, Ruth suddenly collapsed from cardiac arrest. With no pulse and minutes to act, a chain of miracles unfolded—beginning with a rookie officer's CPR and culminating in Ruth's full recovery, with no brain damage.Twelve years later, Dick sits on the porch with Ruth to reflect on that extraordinary day, the people who intervened, the power of prayer, and the deep gratitude that has marked every day since.This is a story of crisis, community, faith—and grace that goes beyond explanation.⏱️ Episode Highlights + Timecodes00:00–00:32 – Setting the scene: birds, trains, and a morning full of memory00:46–02:08 – Ruth collapses mid-conversation after reciting a poem02:08–04:14 – First responders arrive and perform CPR; Ruth is shocked three times04:49–05:13 – Airlift to Loveland; doctors offer a grim prognosis05:20–06:07 – Friends around the world begin to pray; candles light up online06:22–08:13 – A doctor prays over Ruth—and hours later, she wakes up08:24–09:18 – Ruth beats the odds: survival, recovery, and full cognition09:25–11:19 – One year later: apple pie thank-you tour to responders11:19–12:20 – A police captain asks Dick to pray for his team13:00–16:11 – Ruth reflects: family, friends, and Andre Crouch's “My Tribute”16:14–17:43 – Final thoughts on life, love, and laughter
In this second installment of our Elemental Series, we take a deep breath and step into the realm of Air—the element of thought, communication, clarity, and spirit. We explore how Air weaves through magical traditions, breath-based rituals, tarot, astrology, and myth. But we also follow its delicate thread through the world of Practical Magic, where wind, whispers, and winged intention carry meaning beyond words.From Sally's Amas Veritas spell and the swirling petals released into the night, to Gillian's CPR attempt, the clatter of wind chimes during breakfast with Gary, and the iconic final rooftop leap—Air isn't just present in Practical Magic, it's pivotal. It's the laughter around the margarita table, the smoke of cigarettes and incense, the quiet wind that signals change.This episode unpacks how Air shapes not only spellwork and symbols, but also grief, belief, and becoming. With reflection prompts, rituals, and a touch of sister-sign banter, we invite you to breathe deep, listen well, and let go.The wind is rising.

Story at-a-glance Survival rates for cardiac arrest victims go down by 10% with each minute of delay Only 42% of bystanders perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in public settings despite over 350,000 Americans experiencing out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCA) annually Hands-only CPR (100 to 120 compressions per minute, 2 inches deep) is recommended for untrained bystanders, while health care workers should use the 30-to-2 compression-to-breath ratio Immediate actions during cardiac arrest include calling emergency services, locating an automated external defibrillator if available, and beginning CPR promptly without hesitation Heart attacks (arterial blockages affecting blood flow) differ from cardiac arrest (electrical problem causing arrhythmia), though heart attacks sometimes lead to cardiac arrest
Have any of you watched the movie “The Notebook”? At the end, one of the characters, who has dementia, experiences an episode of lucidity. When I watched it, between tears (I'm a complete softie) I remember thinking, “Oh no! This will give people false hope! That their loved one is ‘in there.' If only they could find the right key to unlock the lock and let them out.” Today we talk about lucid episodes and what they might mean to the person with dementia, their family and loved ones, to philosophers, to clinicians, to neuroscientists. Our guests are Andrea Gilmore-Bykovskyi, a nurse researcher, and Andrew Peterson, a philosopher. We had a wide ranging discussion that touched on (among many things): A consensus definition developed at an NIH conference, organized by the recently retired NIA program officer Basil Eldadah (we will miss you Basil!). Andrew complicates this definition, stating is raises more questions than answers. Hospice nurses know that terminal lucidity “is a thing” and have pretty much all seen it Family and caregiver stories of lucid episodes and what they meant to them, including early glimpses into a study Andrea is doing using video to capture episodes and show them to family. Potential for experiences to elicit “false hope”, misunderstanding/misinterpreting, and changing say code status from DNR to full code (rare but happens). Sam Parnia's work on brain activity during CPR and near death episodes Ethical issues these lucid episodes raise Should clinicians treat people with dementia as always lucid? Having some level of awareness? Parallels between how we treat people with advanced dementia, who may or may not be lucid, and how we treat AI, who may or may not be conscious, or experiencing paradoxical lucidity on their way to full consciousness. I try to say please and thank you to the AI I interact with other than Alexa, who is obviously way behind. The Age of Aging podcast episode on lucidity, featuring Anne Bastings, Jason Karlawish, Elizabeth Donnarumma, and Justin Clapp Was Andrew's song choice, “I can see clearly now” better than Eric's suggestion “Silent Lucidity” by Queensryche? Enjoy! -Alex Smith

State lawmakers have bid adieu to the Colorado State Capitol — for now. But lots of questions remain. For example, what's next for Colorado's controversial artificial intelligence law? What about federal spending cuts? Will state lawmakers have to return to Denver before next January to absorb changes from Washington? And the big question: where is Governor Jared Polis on all of this?After so much Polis talk on Purplish this year, this is a chance to hear from the governor himself. Polis spoke with The Colorado Sun's Jesse Paul during the the Sun's 2025 Legislative Session Recap, a live event held at The University of Denver on May 15, 2025. This episode, hosted by CPR's Bente Birkeland, includes excerpts from that conversation, as well as a discussion about the hot issues of the session with Senate President James Coleman, a Democrat from Denver, and House Speaker Julie McCluskie, a Democrat from Dillon. They address the moments of tension between the legislature and governor this session, TABOR reform, the potential impacts of proposed federal Medicaid cuts and more.Purplish is produced by CPR News and the Capitol News Alliance, a collaboration between KUNC News, Colorado Public Radio, Rocky Mountain PBS, and The Colorado Sun, and shared with Rocky Mountain Community Radio and other news organizations across the state.
