In part two of this seven-part series on FND, Dr. Jon Stone and Dr. Gabriela Gilmour discuss pitfalls in the diagnostic process.  Show citation:  Finkelstein SA, Popkirov S. Functional Neurological Disorder: Diagnostic Pitfalls and Differential Diagnostic Considerations. Neurol Clin. 2023;41(4):665-679. doi:10.1016/j.ncl.2023.04.001   

Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman dig into Trump's 2025 National Security Strategy, a 33 page blueprint that reads less like a sober policy document and more like a crypto fascist love letter to white nationalist demographics, spheres of influence, and an American retreat from the postwar liberal order. They break down what it means for NATO, Europe, Russia, China, and why no one in their right mind should ever again trust the United States as a “steady partner” when policy swings on whatever enriches one deeply corrupt old man and his oligarch friends. From there, the guys wade into the Netflix grab for Warner Bros and the rival Ellison–Kushner–Saudi play, talking about how tech money, oil money, and propaganda ambitions are fusing into one giant content machine that cares a lot about control and very little about art. Then it is on to FIFA inventing a fake “Peace Prize” to flatter Trump, the Queller pardon that turned into an open air quid pro quo tantrum, and Marjorie Taylor Greene's sad little image rehab tour on 60 Minutes.

Note: This week we're hard at work on Covid Year Six, our annual year in review. This year's show has gotten so big that we're splitting it into two episodes: December 15th: Covid Year Six December 22nd: 2025, Year of Health Fascism and the Anti-State State (working title) —for both of these, go to https://www.patreon.com/deathpanelpod for those episodes and the whole back catalogue of all of our patron episodes So while we get everything together for these shows, today's episode is our discussion from earlier in the year on something that's going to come up in both episodes, but that still deserves its own focus: Trump's executive order “Ending Crime and Disorder on America's Streets," a threat for a mass expansion of carceral sanist policies. We'll see you next week with those episodes! Subscribe on Patreon and hear this week's full patron-exclusive episode here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/145369924 Beatrice, Artie and Tracy discuss the potential impacts of a new Trump executive order called “Ending Crime and Disorder on America's Streets,” which threatens to dramatically expand involuntary psychiatric commitment and make it easier for the government to disappear people off the streets, allegedly in the name of “compassion.” Runtime 1:51:47 We're testing out a new Bookshop.org page (still under construction), where you can find books by past guests and book recommendations from the hosts.

A new survey that says over two-thirds of U.S. teenagers don’t drink, smoke or use marijuana. A vomiting disorder linked to frequent marijuana use is on the rise, prompting global health officials to allow researchers to track the condition and study it. Dubbed on social media as “scromiting,” short for screaming and vomiting. The internet had a ball Thursday mocking California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s weirdly tense “testicle-crushing” style of cross-legged sitting at a speaking engagement. The 58-year-old pol was discussing National Guard policies at the New York Times Dealbook Summit when he struck a pose that made him the butt of a joke on social media.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, Dr. Linda Bluestein is joined by Professor Tara Renton, a globally recognized expert in orofacial pain, to explore the nuanced world of facial pain, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction, and migraine disorders. Together, they unpack why so many patients suffer from persistent facial, jaw, or head pain despite “normal” scans and what magnetic resonance neurography (MRN) can reveal that traditional imaging might miss. They also dig into local anesthetic reactions, the limitations of pain scales, and how to distinguish between healthy vs. unhealthy pain. . Takeaways Professor Renton explains how magnetic resonance neurography (MRN) can detect nerve irritation that typical MRIs may miss, especially in TMJ and facial pain cases. You'll hear how migraine-related nerve dysfunction can present as jaw pain, facial burning, or unexplained dental sensitivity without classic migraine symptoms. They explore how patients with conditions like mast cell activation may react to preservatives or delivery mechanisms in numbing agents, even if allergy tests are negative. The conversation questions whether traditional 1-to-10 pain rating tools capture the lived experience of chronic nerve or facial pain and what alternatives might help. Dr. Bluestein and Professor Renton discuss how to recognize pain that signals normal healing versus pain that points to long-term nerve dysfunction or central sensitization.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a form of depression triggered by reduced sunlight during the fall and winter months, disrupting the body's circadian rhythm, serotonin levels, melatonin production, energy, mood, and sleep. Symptoms include low mood, fatigue, increased sleep and appetite, difficulty concentrating, and a sense of heaviness that lifts as spring returns. Effective treatments include bright light therapy, CBT, medication when needed, consistent routines, exercise, outdoor exposure, and community or spiritual support. Natural and alternative approaches—such as Vitamin D, omega-3s, herbal supports, dawn simulators, red/infrared light, thermal therapy, aromatherapy, improved nutrition, and creative or social engagement—can complement clinical care and help stabilize mood during winter.Because SAD affects the entire person—mind, body, and nervous system—many benefit from chiropractic care, posture correction, massage, craniosacral therapy, acupuncture, breathwork, and cold/contrast therapy, all of which help regulate tension, improve sleep, enhance breathing, and restore balance to the autonomic nervous system. Integrating physical, emotional, and spiritual practices—such as breath-prayer, embodied posture, Scripture reflection, and daily routines of light—can ground hope and resilience. With the right support, SAD is a highly manageable condition, reminding us that emotional winters are temporary and that the light always returns.Dr. Fred Clary, founder of Functional Analysis Chiropractic Technique and lifting/life coach/ gym-chalk covered philosopher talks about SAD!

Early Warning Signs of Body Dysmorphic Disorder from Linda Summersea! Linda is the author of "The Girl With the Black and Blue Doll", an honest and optimistic book about persevering through childhood depression in a dysfunctional household. What she has learned: the healing child will always be present in the adult, but in her case, the Survival and Healing have now become (almost) Forgiveness. Although she spent most of her life as a loner, most of her peers would have never guessed what she was hiding inside. Linda's adult persona has always been quite able to present a strong front. In addition to expressing herself through writing, she loves public speaking, radio, and television as a mediums of expression, along with the arts that have brought her such joy. In episode 624 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we find out what inspired Linda to write the book, how early experiences shaped the person she became in college, what was the hardest thing to write about in the book, what are the most overlooked emotional challenges during that transition to college, what is Body Dysmorphic Disorder, what are the early warning signs of Body Dysmorphic Disorder, what is the distorted reflection teens see through social media, how expedition hiking become part of her healing, how college students can use creativity as a mental health practice, and what can college organizations do to reduce the stigma around depression and body image issues.

With the long-awaited UK budget finally revealed (in a leaked form a few hours early), will this finally restore a semblance of financial Order to the UK? And with Trump's haphazard tariffs ongoing and constantly mutating, what does it all mean for the global economic order? To find out, Jason is joined by Philip Coggan, award winning journalist and author of The Economic Consequences of Mr Trump: What the Trade War Means For the World. This ep is brought to you in partnership with the New Books Network. Philip and Jason explore how major historical lessons in economics (concerning specialization, efficiency, growth, the advantages of trade deficits, etc.) can all be unpacked from the ongoing economic consequences of Trump's tariffs.  They draw upon the historical parallels of Trump's actions to try to understand the true motivations behind Trump's tarriffs.  Is it all about misunderstanding the meaning of trade deficits, or all about manufacturing, or is it all about centralisation of power and political theatre. Listen to find out… Plus: the duo spoke right after the UK budget announcement and they tried to unpack the domestic implications of the recent UK budget and whether any of Reeve's economic policies can actually Order the Disorder.

What aboot Canada? Is Carney still popular? Has he pulled a Starmer of coming in with big fanfare and then flopping? Fortunately not! And with Mark Carney recently narrowly passing a budget, can Canada now play the role of the world's mega orderers? And with the Canada-U.S. relationship on the rocks and trade talks stalled, what does that mean for Canada's position in the world? To find out, Jason is joined by our returning champion, Marci Surkes. She is Chief Strategy Officer and Managing Director of Compass Rose and was formerly executive director of policy and cabinet affairs in Justin Trudeau's  Prime Minister's Office from 2019-2022. Jason and Marci discuss Prime Minister Mark Carney's leadership style, the recent surge in Canadian defense spending, and the ongoing trade war with the United States. Plus: the challenges Canada faces in diversifying its economy, and the implications of its historical reliance on the U.S.. And as they Order the Disorder, they focus on Canada's future role in global politics and the importance of unity within the country.

For Tom, childhood was filled with positive memories—nothing that hinted he'd ever struggle with alcohol. After college, he stepped into his career, a world where late nights out were normal, and alcohol made social connections feel easier. At first, everything seemed under control. But when the pandemic hit, and isolation became a daily reality, drinking slowly picked up speed. Tom didn't have what many would call a “rock bottom,” but internally, he felt the truth: something had to change. This is Tom's journey of honesty, self-awareness, and choosing a different path.   Check out the Just Between Us Podcast: https://app.helloaudio.fm/feed/07bfba32-e173-41c6-973e-ceee488187c7/signup   00:00 Introduction and Guest Welcome 00:20 Tom's Childhood and Upbringing 01:43 College Life and Fraternity Influence 04:09 Post-College Career and Move to Boston 12:12 Pandemic Impact and Realization 16:42 The Struggle with Alcohol 23:06 The Hidden Truth About Alcohol's Impact on Society 23:55 The Dopamine Connection: Alcohol and Gambling 24:57 Personal Reflections: Evaluating Life Choices 26:05 The Decade Mark: Recognizing the Need for Change 26:50 The Internal Struggle: Awareness and Denial 27:41 The Turning Point: Family and Sobriety 31:20 Navigating Sobriety: Slips and Progress 36:20 Therapy and Support: Tools for Sobriety 40:58 The Journey Continues: Embracing Change 44:45 Final Thoughts: Encouragement and Suppor

What happens when everything you thought your music career would be takes a sharp left turn—not once, but over and over again? On this episode of Bringin' it Backwards, Adam Lisicky sits down with the wildly talented Alexandra Savior for an honest, vulnerable conversation about reinvention, resilience, and staying true to her creative self through the ups and downs of the music industry. Alexandra opens up about her journey from rainy Vancouver, Washington to New York Fashion Week as a teenager—thanks to an unexpected shoutout from Courtney Love—and the whirlwind that followed: signing with Columbia, writing sessions in London, and nearly missing her high school graduation due to flights to L.A. and New York. She tells us what it was like to nearly become the "pop star" execs wanted, only to realize she needed to find her own path. Alexandra reflects on the challenges following her debut, riding the waves of being dropped by her label, and how a chance call from Danger Mouse and a creative partnership helped spark her next chapter. We dive deep into her latest project, Beneath the Lily Pad, where her songwriting explores personal themes like mental health, isolation, and searching for identity, all crafted in the most DIY way imaginable. From painting album covers in her kitchen to building a direct connection with fans through handwritten letters and custom merchandise, Alexandra's story is one of artistic integrity, vulnerability, and never giving up—even when the world shuts down. Get ready for an episode filled with music industry real talk, behind-the-scenes moments, and advice you won't find on TikTok. Hit subscribe, lean in, and listen to Alexandra Savior's incredible journey—only on Bringin' it Backwards.

Imagine your brain's hardware is perfect, but the software is glitching so badly your body stops working.We sit down with Erum, a biochemist who navigates the world with a rare and often misunderstood condition: Functional Neurological Disorder (FND). We Raw Dog into the fascinating science behind the diagnosis. Basically her brain has a "software glitch" but the hardware is pristine. So how, and why is it causing the left side of her body to physically fail during flare-ups? Erum shares her harrowing and resilient story, from a terrifying ER visit where doctors suspected a brain tumor or MS, to the "magic trick" test that finally led to her FND diagnosis. We discuss the profound connection between her condition and a history of severe childhood trauma, including growing up as a child of deaf adults (CODA) and surviving abuse. Plus, we talk about the healing power of boxing and how FND finally forced her to stop people-pleasing.You can watch this entire episode over on YouTube!Follow Sickboy on Instagram, TikTok and Discord.

Observational Cinematic Compulsion Disorder, or OCCD, is a common behavioral condition characterized by involuntary ocular fixation on a neighbor's in-flight audiovisual LCD display, even in the absence of accompanying auditory stimuli. Patients with OCCD exhibit vastly impaired concentration filtration, resulting in reflexive visual tracking of narrative cinematic sequences presented on adjacent personal screens during commercial air travel. The disorder is frequently associated with heightened situational distractibility, transient dissociative drift, and a paradoxical increase in attentional salience toward media not voluntarily selected by the patient. Management of OCCD involves admission to a 19th-century gothic asylum in upstate New York, with current clinical guidelines emphasizing electroconvulsive therapy administered on a daily basis, leading to a positive outcome of preemptive engagement with self-selected entertainment to mitigate cross-screen visual intrusion.
