The Other Side of Midnight with Walter Sterling is your ultimate late-night audio escape dedicated to the strange, the frustrating, and the hilarious. Join Walter and his dedicated crowd of "Midnight Misfits" as they pivot seamlessly from wildly unpredictable interviews—featuring self-described "smutty" authors of lesbian space romances, Bigfoot investigators, and geopolitical military analysts—to the everyday annoyances that actually drive us crazy. Instead of asking the boring question "how was work?", Walter opens the phone lines to commiserate over the real issues: infuriating Wi-Fi printer jams, disappearing bank funds, unhinged office air-conditioning wars, and the worst parts of your day. It's live, unfiltered, and deeply relatable talk radio for the nocturnal crowd. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Send us Fan MailMany people living with migraines say they can "feel a storm coming" before an attack. But is there scientific evidence that environmental exposures can influence migraine risk?In this episode of Causes or Cures, Dr. Eeks talks with Professor Gal Ifergane, neurologist and headache specialist, about his research on migraines and the environment. The conversation explores how air pollution, heat, solar radiation, and weather conditions may help lower the threshold for migraine attacks in people who are already susceptible.Professor Ifergane explains why migraine is often considered a threshold disorder, where genetics, biology, and environmental exposures may all interact to influence when an attack occurs.In this episode, you'll learn:• Can air pollution trigger migraines?• Are weather-related migraines real?• Can heat, sunlight, or solar radiation increase migraine risk?• How researchers study environmental migraine triggers• Why some people may be more sensitive to environmental exposures than others• What these findings could mean for migraine preventionIf you've ever wondered whether your surroundings—not just your brain—could influence migraine attacks, this episode explores what the current science says.About Professor Gal Ifergane:Professor Gal Ifergane is a neurologist, headache specialist, and clinical researcher who serves as Head of the Neurology Department and Chair of the Brain Medicine Division at Soroka Medical Center in Be'er Sheva, Israel.

John Crowley does not stop at bad news. His two young children, Megan and Patrick, were babies when they were diagnosed with Pompe disease, a rare and fatal form of muscular dystrophy. Crowley changed his entire life in a race against the clock to find a treatment for his kids and reinvented his career at the same time. It was a breakthrough that inspired a Hollywood film, he tells Becky Quick for CNBC Cures. Since then, Crowley has built two biotech companies focused on rare diseases that were later acquired by larger pharmaceuticals and today leads the industry lobbying group, BIO.

What does it really take to build an effective treatment plan for a condition that touches every system in the body, when there is no single magic pill? In this episode, host Dr. Linda Bluestein, the Hypermobility MD, is joined by recurring co-host Dr. Dacre Knight, Medical Director of the UVA Health EDS and Hypermobility Disorders Center, to complete their series on the MENS-PMMS Method™, Dr. Bluestein's comprehensive treatment framework for hypermobility disorders. Together, they cover the final four components of the MENS-PMMS Method™: psychosocial factors, modalities, medications, and supplements. The conversation centers on a recurring theme: meaningful improvement rarely comes from one breakthrough, but from stacking many small wins across every domain. They explore the physiologic mind-body connection and why validation is one of the most underrated and accessible interventions, alongside nervous system regulation approaches like CBT, DBT, EAET, EMDR, and Dr. Beth Darnall's Empowered Relief program. On modalities, they discuss heat, massage, acupuncture, dry needling, TENS units, bracing, and the often-overlooked power of diaphragmatic breathing, framed by Dr. Pradeep Chopra's "10% rule." The medication discussion covers a start-low-go-slow philosophy, medication sensitivities and pharmacogenomics, the importance of deprescribing to avoid polypharmacy, and options for POTS and mast cell activation. They close with a candid look at supplements, true deficiencies like scurvy and low vitamin D, the marketing traps to watch for, and a reminder to measure progress by function and quality of life rather than chasing a cure. Takeaways: • The MENS-PMMS Method™ emphasizes a whole-person approach, recognizing that meaningful improvement in EDS and HSD comes from addressing multiple domains rather than relying on a single treatment. • Lasting progress is often the result of accumulating many small gains across different interventions, an approach reflected in Dr. Pradeep Chopra's "10% rule." • Validation is not just compassionate care—it is a powerful therapeutic tool that can reduce distress, improve engagement, and support nervous system regulation. • The connection between physical symptoms and emotional well-being is physiologic, underscoring the importance of addressing both body and mind in treatment planning. • When introducing new therapies, changing one variable at a time can help patients and clinicians better identify what is helping, what is not, and what may be causing side effects. • Medication management should balance potential benefits with the risks of sensitivities, side effects, and polypharmacy, making deprescribing an important part of high-quality care. • Supplements are most valuable when they address a documented deficiency or specific clinical need rather than being used as a substitute for a comprehensive treatment plan. • Patients should be cautious of products or programs that promise cures, quick fixes, or dramatic results for complex chronic conditions. • Functional improvement, participation in meaningful activities, and quality of life are often better measures of success than symptom elimination alone. • The most effective treatment plans are individualized, flexible, and designed to evolve as a patient's needs, goals, and circumstances change.

In an era when medicine was still finding its footing, John Romulous Brinkley built an empire on impossible cures, relentless ambition, and astonishing lack of a moral compass. In a shocking display of charm and manipulation, he managed to sell his patients on a cure for diseases they didn't even know they had, frequently involving the surgical insertion of a goats testicle into their body. His rise to fame was inspired, and for a while, his power was almost unstoppable, until one man on a crusade took it upon himself to prove otherwise.

Send us Fan MailCan listening to music help protect your brain as you age?In this episode of Causes or Cures, Dr. Eeks talks with Professor Joanne Ryan about her research on music, dementia risk, cognitive decline, and healthy aging.Drawing on data from thousands of older adults participating in the ASPREE Longitudinal Study of Older Persons (ALSOP), Professor Ryan discusses findings suggesting that frequent music engagement—including listening to music and playing a musical instrument—was associated with a lower risk of dementia and better cognitive outcomes over time.The conversation explores:• Whether listening to music can help reduce dementia risk• How playing a musical instrument may affect brain health• Proposed biological and cognitive mechanisms behind music's effects on the brain• Music, memory, and why some people with dementia can still remember and perform music• Whether certain types of music may be more beneficial than others• The limitations of observational research and what questions still remain unansweredIf you've ever wondered whether your favorite playlist is doing more than entertaining you, this episode explores what the science currently says about music, memory, cognition, and the aging brain.About Professor Joanne RyanProfessor Joanne Ryan is a Principal Research Fellow and leader of the Biological Neuropsychiatry and Dementia research team at Monash University in Australia. Her research focuses on understanding the causes, prevention, and early detection of neuropsychiatric disorders, particularly dementia and depression.Her team investigates biological, lifestyle, and environmental risk factors that influence brain health and works to identify preventive strategies that may reduce the incidence of dementia and cognitive decline. The group also studies biomarkers that may improve the timing and accuracy of diagnosis and help evaluate the effectiveness of interventions. Professor Ryan has published extensively on aging, cognition, dementia risk factors, mental health, and preventive approaches to healthy brain aging.Work with me? Perhaps we are a good match.

We're breaking down my power-rated teams #10 through #6: Penn State, Texas A&M, Alabama, Georgia, and Texas, with win total picks for every single one.What we cover:Penn State – Matt Campbell's Iowa State transplant experiment, Rocco Becht's advantages as a transfer QB, defensive line concerns, and why 8.5 is a no-betTexas A&M – Marcel Reed's ceiling, a potentially elite receiver room with Isaiah Horton, the massive offensive line question marks, and why I'm leaning over 8.5Alabama – The Kalen DeBoer QB battle between Austin Mack and Keelon Russell, the alarming 3.4 YPC from last season, secondary strength vs. linebacker depth concernsGeorgia – Can Gunner Stockton take the Bulldogs from playoff team to national champion? A case for 10+ wins despite a thin receiver room and a dead-last SEC pass rushTexas – Arch Manning's full-season upside, Cam Coleman's massive portal impact, Will Muschamp's aggressive new defense, and a 12-0 ceiling that's hard to ignoreThese are five of the most fascinating rosters in college football, and every single one has a real flaw hiding behind the hype.

Send us Fan MailWhat makes you you?Is it your memories? Your personality? Your sense of humor? Your motivation? What happens when a neurological disease changes one of those things?In this episode of Causes or Cures, Dr. Eeks talks with neurologist, neuroscientist, and author Dr. Masud Husain about his new book, Our Brains, Our Selves: What a Neurologist's Patients Taught Him About the Brain.Drawing on the stories of seven patients with different neurological conditions, Dr. Husain explores how changes in the brain can profoundly affect identity, behavior, memory, motivation, humor, and our relationships with others.We discuss pathological apathy after stroke, personality changes caused by frontotemporal dementia, memory and Alzheimer's disease, the neurological basis of humor, and how cultural and spiritual beliefs shape the way people understand illness. We also explore bigger questions about free will, responsibility, consciousness, and whether there may be aspects of human experience that lie beyond a purely biological explanation.Dr. Husain shares what decades of caring for patients with neurological disorders have taught him about the brain—and about what it means to be human.Dr. Masud Husain is Professor of Neurology and Cognitive Neuroscience at the University of Oxford and a Professorial Fellow at New College, Oxford. His work spans neurology, neuroscience, psychology, and brain imaging, with a focus on understanding how the brain supports cognition in both healthy individuals and people with neurological disorders.

Ever lie awake while your mind replays every worst-case scenario? You are not weak, and you are not alone. Long before therapists talked about anxiety, a future king named David was on the run, terrified, and hiding in enemy territory. Out of that low moment he wrote a prayer that still speaks to anxious hearts today.In this sermon we walk through Psalm 34:4-7 and discover that God does not wait for us to calm down before He draws near. Sometimes He changes our circumstances. More often, He delivers us from the fear itself, even while the storm is still standing right in front of us.
I'm sitting down with Jonathan Otto for a conversation about health, sovereignty and the search for alternatives outside mainstream systems. Before that, we examine fresh claims surrounding the COVID era, including allegations that safety signals were ignored, questions about vaccine injuries, cancer risk, the origins of the virus, and what those controversies reveal about the relationship between governments, media, pharmaceutical companies and public trust. Against that backdrop, Jonathan shares his research into red light therapy, mitochondria, stem cells, methylene blue, chronic illness and emerging health technologies, while we explore whether decentralised approaches to medicine, community and personal responsibility offer a path beyond institutions that many people no longer trust. More broadly, this is a conversation about freedom, health, faith, innovation and what it means to reclaim control in a world increasingly shaped by powerful systems and competing narratives. Find out more at https://myredlight.com/ Red light therapy (photobiomodulation) is exploding in popularity — but why is the medical establishment pushing back? Investigative journalist and author Jonathan Otto joins to break down what red light and near-infrared therapy actually does, whether the science supports the biggest health claims, how long results take, side effects, whether it works for hair loss, and if you can overdo it. If Big Pharma is scared of it, that's reason enough to pay attention.

Noted value investor Guy Spier first gained the public's attention in 2007 when he and a partner paid just over $650,000 at a charity auction to have lunch with the world's most famous investor, Warren Buffett. Spier launched his fund Aquamarine in 1997, following closely to Buffett's principles, but closed it down in early 2026 and returned money to investors following a diagnosis of the brain cancer glioblastoma. He tells Becky Quick how facing the end of his life taught him the true meaning of value.

This book, written by scientist Adrian Woolfson, explores how recent technology could let us "write" or design DNA, which is the code of life. Woolfson believes that by learning to program DNA, we could change biology in amazing ways. For example, in the future, we might be able to grow houses instead of building them, have living smartphones, or wear clothes that can react to us. We could even store all human knowledge in a tiny piece of DNA, cure all diseases, and live much longer lives.To make this possible, Woolfson says we need to understand DNA as a language that we can read and write. Right now, scientists are just starting out—they can write the DNA of simple things like viruses and bacteria. But soon, we might be able to create the DNA of extinct animals or even new life forms that have never existed before. This would mean life could be designed and changed by humans.However, this power comes with big risks. Changing life in such a major way could have unexpected effects on nature and on what it means to be human. Woolfson's book explains these possibilities and warns that we need to use this technology carefully and ethically.Experts praise the book for being bold, imaginative, and easy to understand. They say it is important reading for anyone interested in the future of life on Earth. https://adrianwoolfson.com/http://www.yourlotandparcel.orgSupport the show
We are currently revisiting The Restore Project series. We hope you enjoy going back with us.Welcome to The Restore Project — a series centered around Psalm 23. Here is Session 5. (Feel free to listen in any order.) Psalm 23:1-2The LORD is my shepherd,I shall not want.He makes me lie down in green pastures;He leads me beside quiet waters.In this episode, we focus on how Psalm 23 reveals the symptoms of our soul and leads us toward the cure. When I read that “quiet waters” can be translated as “waters of rest,” it made me pause and take a deep breath. These words brought to light a symptom within me — a longing for rest, not the sleep kind, but a much deeper rest.I'll end the episode by praying for us through each verse of the Psalm. This may become a regular practice, and I hope it brings you the same change of heart that it brought me.If you would like to support this podcast with a monthly or one-time gift, thank you!https://www.sherriyoungward.com/supportTo find out about upcoming gatherings and new projects, please join my email list at www.sherriyoungward.com

Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 4 (5.29) Conway kicks off the hour with a look at two promising new cholesterol treatments, enlicitide and VERVE-102, both aiming to help lower LDL “bad” cholesterol — but in completely different ways. One sounds like the future of medicine, and the other sounds like Conway is ready to gamble on it like a casino bet. Then the crew dives into the viral Trader Joe’s Sweet & Sour Gummy Worms story. These innocent-looking candies are loaded with fiber, and because the bag doesn’t exactly scream “high fiber warning,” some shoppers are eating way too many and ending up with stomach rumbling, gas, and a surprise bathroom emergency. The ultimate buzzkill candy. Later, Conway tells his Egg McMuffin story after going 35 years without one, explains how he managed to annoy a pharmacist at CVS, and breaks down the chaos of picking up everyone’s Starbucks drinks. The hour wraps with one of the strangest side hustle stories yet: a 23-year-old creator making serious money selling videos of herself farting. Forget Etsy, rideshare, and vintage clothes — this is the new economy, and Conway has questions. cholesterol treatment, LDL cholesterol, VERVE-102, enlicitide, Trader Joe’s gummies, Sweet & Sour Gummy Worms, high fiber candy, bathroom emergency, Egg McMuffin, CVS pharmacy, Starbucks order, weird side hustle, fart videos, viral story, funny podcast, Conway Show See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
What if the key to understanding autism isn't one gene — but thousands working together?In this episode of Research Renaissance, host Deborah Westphal sits down with Dr. Daniel Gershwind, Gordon and Virginia McDonald Distinguished Professor of Human Genetics, Neurology, and Psychiatry at UCLA, and Associate Vice Chancellor for Precision Health. A true pioneer in neurogenomics, Dr. Gershwind has spent over two decades reshaping how we understand autism and complex brain disorders — from building one of the first autism gene banks to applying transcriptomic network methods that revealed the molecular landscape of the brain in entirely new ways.This conversation is as much about the science as it is about how science gets done — through collaboration, curiosity, and a willingness to tackle the problems others walk away from.Key TakeawaysGenetics doesn't mean "everything is genetic" — all human disease has both genetic and environmental components, but genetics offers a powerful, tractable starting point for understanding causeLooking at gene networks (rather than single genes) transformed the field by making sense of hundreds or thousands of genes at once — and revealing how biological systems adapt and respond to disruptionAutism affects approximately 1 in 100 children today — not because rates have risen, but because our ability to diagnose it has dramatically improved over the past 30 yearsAbout 15% of people with autism can now be identified with a specific causative genetic mutation through whole genome or exome sequencing — pointing toward targeted, precision therapiesTranscriptomics (measuring RNA expression across the brain) revealed shared molecular patterns in autism brains across different patients — a surprising convergence that has since been validated in large sample sizesAutism, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder share some molecular pathology but are mostly molecularly distinct — a finding only visible at the transcriptomic levelCRISPR activation (without genome editing) has already been used in lab models to restore normal neuronal firing in certain autism-linked epilepsy syndromes — a proof of concept for future therapiesAI is now being used to connect gene networks to existing drugs, potentially accelerating drug discovery without needing full mechanistic understandingNeurodegeneration (including Alzheimer's and frontotemporal dementia) is closer to clinical trials than autism — but the two fields are informing each other in real timeAbout the GuestDr. Daniel Gershwind is the Gordon and Virginia McDonald Distinguished Professor of Human Genetics, Neurology, and Psychiatry at UCLA. He leads the Gershwind Lab and serves as Associate Vice Chancellor for Precision Health. He co-founded the Autism Genetic Resource Exchange (AGRE), which became the leading data resource for autism genetics research for over a decade, and has been instrumental in developing transcriptomic network approaches now used widely across the field.Resources & LinksKaren Toffler Charitable Trust: karentoffler.orgAutism Genetic Resource Exchange (AGRE)UCLA Gershwind LabPsychENCODE ConsortiumEnjoyed this episode?

The 2026 college football season is getting closer, and this batch of power-rated teams has some massive betting and playoff questions. BYU, Utah, Iowa, Texas Tech, and Washington all have real upside — but every one of them has a major flaw that could change the season.On today's Winning Cures Everything college football preview, we break down teams ranked #20 through #16 in my 2026 preseason power ratings. BYU is no longer a cute Big 12 surprise story with Bear Bachmeier and LJ Martin returning, but defensive coordinator turnover and a tough road schedule could make things tricky. Utah enters the Morgan Scalley era after Kyle Whittingham's departure, with a rebuilt offensive line and a schedule that still gives the Utes a real Big 12 title path.We also dig into Iowa's massive reload under Kirk Ferentz, including quarterback questions, offensive line turnover, Phil Parker's defense, and whether the Hawkeyes can still win ugly. Texas Tech may have the Big 12's best roster, but Brendan Sorsby's eligibility situation and defensive losses create one of the biggest storylines in the conference. Finally, Washington has a star quarterback in Demond Williams Jr., but the Huskies still have to prove they can handle Big Ten heavyweights.If you're looking for 2026 college football previews, Big 12 predictions, Big Ten betting analysis, win total picks, and playoff dark horse breakdowns, this episode is for you.Subscribe to Winning Cures Everything, hit the like button, and drop your thoughts in the comments.0:00 Intro0:50 BYU10:17 Utah18:53 Iowa28:48 Texas Tech38:58 Washington

Dan Gilbert wears many hats: NBA owner, entrepreneur, Detroit booster and Dad. While building Rocket Companies – the $30 billion mortgage giant – and investing billions in the Motor City's 21st century development, he was a rare disease parent. Gilbert's oldest child, Nick, died in 2023 following a lifelong battle with neurofibromatosis, a genetic disease that causes tumors to grow on nerve pathways anywhere in the body. The most common type, NF1, affects approximately 1 in 2,500 births. Half of those patients develop learning and physical challenges. Nick had a following among basketball fans. He represented the Cleveland Cavaliers at multiple NBA draft lotteries and proved something of a good luck charm for the team and the city. Since his death, the Gilbert family have pledged millions to fund research initiatives in the hopes of finding a cure for NF.

Would you survive a 24-hour shouting match to cure a fever? This week, we're diving deep into the bizarre and brutal world of Medieval Medicine. We explore the Four Humors, the "logic" of eating fried canaries for epilepsy, and the stomach-churning surgery of the Lithotomy.Then, we shift gears to the late 19th century to tell the story of the original "girl reporter," Nellie Bly. Discover how her 10-day undercover stint inside a New York madhouse changed investigative journalism—and mental health reform—forever. It's an episode full of "green soup" eyeballs, iron-deficiency myths, and the sheer grit of a woman who refused to be silenced by the asylum walls.

A distribution uniformity test is a good way to assess the health of your irrigation system, but it isn't always easy to figure out if the cost of making these fixes, particularly big fixes, will pencil out.

Katie Sommers informs us that there is a new study that claims holding hands could be healthy and prevent disease?!
It took years for actress Selma Blair to find the role of a lifetime – and joy – in a shocking diagnosis. Discovering in her 40s that decades of health concerns and misunderstandings were the result of multiple sclerosis, Blair transformed her diagnosis into action. Around 1 million Americans are known to have the auto-immune disease MS, which can impact the brain and spinal cord, as well as the body's ability to communicate. The “Legally Blonde” and “Cruel Intentions” actress is an advocate for fellow MS patients and she is speaking up for anyone traveling the difficult path of finding medical answers, care and possible treatment.

In this message, Pastor Justin dives into the deep-seated fears and spiritual underpinnings of our relationship with money. He uses the cautionary tale of the film The Ballad of a Small Player to contrast a life of "folly" with a life of "wisdom".Justin argues that a "mediocre message on money" usually boils down to "debt is dumb, giving is good," but fails to transform the heart. Instead, he points to Proverbs 1:7, explaining that the "Fear of the Lord" (Yirah) is the beginning of true knowledge. This isn't a dread of punishment, but a posture of awe, respect, and alignment with a God who is real, weighty, and worth obeying.Subscribe to AfterWords on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.Download a copy of the Exodus JournalVisit us online: rivchurch.comFollow us on InstagramSend us feedback: podcast@rivchurch.comSubscribe to AfterWords on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.Visit us online: rivchurch.comFollow us on InstagramSend us feedback: podcast@rivchurch.com
I'm back with my friend and colleague Sabine Hossenfelder for another episode of “What's New in Science”. Spending time with Sabine was a nice chance to step away from my physics lecture series for a bit. I know many of you have been enjoying the lectures, so don't worry, they'll be back soon.In this episode, we covered an incredibly wide range of science topics. Sabine opened with reported claim that the CIA used quantum magnetometry to find the downed pilot in Iran. The report, in the NY Post, looked fishy. We explain why it is. Then I described a new discovery in the physics of material that may solve perhaps the biggest problem in AI now: heat generation in computers. Sabine talked about a new claimed Big Bang Theory that might have some relevance to quantum gravity. Then I countered with a discussion of yet a new result that suggests the standard model of cosmology may have troubles, or that observers are wrong. After that, Sabine introduced a paper describing a possible new way to measure gravitational waves. I think it is a fine piece of work, though it is not clear if it is practical. If it were, then the huge interferometers that are now being used could be replaced by ‘tabletop' detectors. We will see. Finally, I described an amazingly interesting news story that might have implications for the future of medicine. It also demonstrates what one person, with determination and wealth, can do to possibly cure their own maladies. Sid Sijbrandij, a billionaire tech CEO of Gitlab, was diagnosed with inoperable spine cancer, and launched an amazing program of diagnostics, AI data mining, and a group of scientists who developed vaccines specific to his genetic makeup. After implementing all the procedures, he has been cancer free for a year. While this is beyond the reach of people without these resources now, Sid's story demonstrates the potential power of combining AI and genetic medicine in the future.As always, an ad-free video version of this podcast is also available to paid Critical Mass subscribers.
