Hey Friends~  This episode is part 2 of the series “When Communication is Hard.”    Today we're talking about childhood apraxia of speech and other motor speech disorders—what they are, and why speech can be so effort-filled for some kids. If your child knows what they want to say but can't consistently get the words out, this episode will help you understand what's really going on beneath the surface.  We'll also talk about why “just practice” often backfires and what kinds of support actually help at home.

This is the second in our two-part series shining a light on Epstein survivors and their real-life stories. In this episode, Mark Lobel is joined by civil rights attorney Lisa Bloom, who represents many of Epstein's victims. Bloom reveals how she has recently been approached by new potential clients in the wake of the recent release of yet more documents from the Epstein Files. She calls Epstein “one of the most prolific sexual predators the world has ever seen”. She discusses why the American Justice system has not helped the powerless achieve justice against the rich and powerful. She explains how this needs to be fixed. As Mark and Lisa Order the Disorder, she outlines what justice would look like for the Epstein victims and how we as a world can improve how we acheive justice for victims of grooming and sexual abuse. Lisa proposes the concrete step of advocating for a blanket ban on the statute of limitations for sexual abuse.   To join our Mega Orderers Club, and get ad free listening, early episode releases, bonus content and exclusive access to live events, visit https://disorder.supportingcast.fm/ Producer: George McDonagh Subscribe to our Substack - https://natoandtheged.substack.com/ Disorder on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@DisorderShow Show Notes Links: For more on Lisa and her work visit: https://thebloomfirm.com/lawyer/lisa-bloom/  READ: Chuck Schumer's Floor Remarks Introducing Virginia's Law To Help Provide Justice For Survivors Of Abuse https://www.democrats.senate.gov/news/press-releases/leader-schumer-floor-remarks-introducing-virginias-law-to-help-provide-justice-for-survivors-of-abuse   READ: Todd Blanche says review of Jeffrey Epstein sex-trafficking case ‘is over' https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/feb/01/epstein-files-todd-blanche-deputy-ag  READ: Epstein files reference 'nine-year-old victim' in disturbing unredacted emails seen by lawmakers https://www.standard.co.uk/news/world/unredacted-epstein-files-girl-9-mention-emails-b1270395.html  The theatrical play 'Here There are Blueberries' discussed on the show: https://www.stratfordeast.com/whats-on/all-shows/here-there-are-blueberries  READ: Melinda French Gates References a 'Reckoning as a Society' over Bill Gates Epstein Claims https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/celebrity/articles/melinda-french-gates-references-reckoning-180726489.html  You can get in touch with Mark, to host or speak at your event here: https://www.mark-lobel.com/getintouch  Learn more about your ad choices.

Today's Case A 28-year-old female presents to an outpatient psychiatry clinic with a 1-month history of anxiety attacks. She has a past history of major depressive disorder (MDD) and is taking a low dose sero- tonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI). During the panic attacks she experiences severe anxiety with the following symptoms: lightheadedness, accelerated heart rate, chest pain, short- ness of breath, and nausea. The symptoms last between 2 and 20 minutes. She cannot identify any triggers for the panic attacks. She has been worrying about when the next panic attack will occur, and the symptoms are affecting her ability to function. She was previously effectively treated with venlafaxine and until now had experienced infrequent panic attacks. Today's Reader Ryan O'Connell is a junior biology major at Loyola Marymount University.

In recent years, California deathcore juggernauts Spite have risen to the forefront of modern heavy music, building a reputation as one of the most formidable forces in the genre. They've drawn comparisons to Thy Art Is Murder, The Acacia Strain and Suicide Silence, and have consistently pushed and pulled at the boundaries of metalcore, nu metal and deathcore. Their rise has been fast and impossible to ignore, seeing the band collect millions of streams and hundreds of thousands of social media followers.Unafraid to experiment and unfazed by expectation, Spite have continually expanded their sonic palate with each new release, culminating with last year's well received album New World Killer, which will be the focus of the band's debut Australian headline performances.Through past visits sharing the stage with Make Them Suffer and Thy Art Is Murder, Spite have integrated themselves into the lives of Australian music lovers with their uncompromising live assault and inate ability to genuinely enjoy each passing moment as a band.With the tour set to kick off in Brisbane on April 24, HEAVY caught up with frontman Darius Tehrani to guage just how much carnage Spite plans to reign down on us all.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Does a mental health diagnosis explain why you are suffering, or does it just give your suffering a name?In this episode, I challenge the traditional way we look at mental health labels. While a diagnosis (like depression, anxiety, or ADHD) can be a helpful shorthand for professionals, it often becomes a trap for the person receiving it—convincing them they are "broken" rather than adapting to their life context.To illustrate this, I share the story of two hypothetical clients: Penny and Milton. Both come to therapy with the exact same heavy symptoms.Penny receives a diagnosis, is told she has a disorder to manage forever, and leaves feeling defective.Milton is met with a nervous system perspective, learns his feelings make sense based on his history, and is given the tools to actually heal.Join me as we explore why your diagnosis is a description, not a life sentence. We'll discuss how to shift from "fighting a disorder" to building safety in your nervous system, so you can stop merely managing symptoms and start getting unstuck.In this episode, you will learn:Why a diagnosis in the DSM describes what is happening but rarely explains why.The critical difference between the "Disorder Model" vs. the "Nervous System Model."How to stop rejecting your feelings and start building safety (the "Milton" approach).Why your symptoms are likely a normal response to an abnormal situation.

This winter has been incredibly cold in New York City. With long days spent inside and with the sun going down early, many might be struggling with Seasonal Affective Disorder, also known as seasonal depression. Dr. Paul Desan, associate professor of psychiatry at the Yale School of Medicine, gives listeners a better understanding of how Seasonal Affective Disorder works and tips for how to combat it.Stock graphic via iStock / Getty Images Plus

Hey Elon are you listening? And King Charles and former Prince Andrew, what about you? We want actions, not words. Order isn't gonna magically appear, powerful people need to help bring it about. This episode has tips for how the most powerful could use their wealth and power to try to Order the Disorder.  As the implications of the Epstein scandal grows ever larger and the whole affair presents terrifying perspectives from which to view our geopolitics over of the last two decades, we here at Disorder, would like to spend real time focusing on survivors, rather than just paying them lip service. Hence, we have two shows this week focusing on their stories. In today's episode, Mark Lobel talks to Asian-American artist Rina Oh about how she was groomed and drawn into Epstein's network - and how he used grooming tactics to manipulate countless young women. She is writing a book in which she will soon ‘reveal all' about the man she describes as a “raging paedophile”. Rina is incredibly brave to be speaking out and we applaud her and are honoured to be platforming her. To finish the episode, as Mark and Rina Order the Disorder, Rina talks about what must happen next for justice to be done for hundreds of victims – specifically she describes how law enforcement should go after what's left of his network.  Donate to the fund for Carolyn Andriano's memorial: https://www.gofundme.com/f/carolyn-andriano-memorial  To immediately get part two of this series with Lisa Bloom – an attorney who represents several Epstein victims, join the Mega Orderers Club now: https://disorder.supportingcast.fm/  Producer: George McDonagh Subscribe to our Substack - https://natoandtheged.substack.com/ Subscribe to Disorder on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@DisorderShow Show Notes Links: For more on Rina and her work visit: http://rinaohepsteinfiles.com For more on the US Virgin Island Mental Health Fund, read: https://www.usvimentalhealthfund.com/ Read: Bondi's Incompetence Is the Latest Insult for Epstein's Victims: https://www.nytimes.com/2026/02/14/opinion/bondi-epstein-justice.html Read: Musk Offers To Pay Defense Fees Of Anyone Who ‘Speaks The Truth' About Epstein And Is Sued: https://www.forbes.com/sites/siladityaray/2026/02/09/musk-offers-to-pay-defense-fees-of-anyone-who-speaks-the-truth-about-epstein-and-is-sued/ If you value this kind of content and want early release episodes, pls join the Mega Orderers Club: https://disorder.supportingcast.fm/  You can get in touch with Mark, to host or speak at your event here: https://www.mark-lobel.com/getintouch  Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of the SMFM Podcast, we continue a three-part American Heart Month series highlighting Patient Safety and Quality (PSQI) tools developed to improve cardiovascular outcomes during pregnancy and the postpartum period. Dr. Bart Staat is joined by Dr. Kelly Gibson and Dr. Ralph Burns, authors of the SMFM Checklist for Postpartum Discharge of Women with Hypertensive Disorders. The discussion focuses on how a standardized postpartum checklist can reduce preventable morbidity and mortality by ensuring consistent patient education, supporting home blood pressure monitoring, promoting timely follow-up, and improving transitions to ongoing care. The episode also explores practical implementation strategies, systems-level considerations, and the associated quality metric designed to help practices measure adherence and impact. A link to the checklist and quality metric is included in the show notes and is available on the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine website under Clinical Guidance → Patient Safety and Quality. https://publications.smfm.org/publications/331-society-for-maternal-fetal-medicine-special-statement-checklist/   Disclaimer: "The Public Health System Components: Clinicians who are related to Maternal-Fetal Medicine program is supported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as part of a financial assistance award to the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine (SMFM) totaling $1,278,000 with 100 percent funded by CDC/HHS.

Shuichi also outlines other factors to consider when assessing treatment response. Read the full article in Australian Prescriber.

"Trauma Isn't a Disorder, It's a Repairable Injury | Dr. Eugene Lipov." What if trauma isn't a disorder at all, but an injury your body never healed from? For decades, we've been told PTSD is psychological, permanent, and something to "manage." That framing may be the very thing keeping millions trapped. . In this episode, I sit down with physician-neuroscientist Dr. Eugene Lipov, the man who quietly disrupted the mental-health establishment by demonstrating something deeply unsettling and deeply hopeful at the same time: . Trauma is not a character flaw. It's a biological filing error. . When the brain loses its ability to distinguish between what happened and what is happening, the nervous system gets locked into a false present-moment reality. That's not pathology. That's an injury. . And injuries can heal. In this conversation, we explore: Why PTSD may be a misdiagnosis, and why Dr. Lipov argues it should be renamed Post-Traumatic Stress Injury (PTSI) What actually happens in the brain during extreme trauma, and why logic cannot override it The role of the amygdala, hippocampus, and norepinephrine in "frozen" traumatic memory Why talk therapy often fails when the nervous system is stuck in threat How the Stellate Ganglion Block (SGB) interrupts trauma at the biological level Why trauma is frequently misidentified as anxiety, personality, burnout, or temperament How untreated trauma is passed down through families via behavior and epigenetics Why labeling trauma as a "disorder" quietly reinforces shame and hopelessness The difference between coping with trauma and ending it This is not a comfort conversation. It is a precision conversation. If you believe leadership, performance, and clarity begin in the mind, this episode will challenge you. If you understand that biology precedes belief, this episode may finally explain what you've been living with. About My Guest Dr. Eugene Lipov is a physician, neuroscientist, and global pioneer in the treatment of trauma-related symptoms. In 2006, he introduced the use of the Stellate Ganglion Block as a direct intervention into the nervous system for trauma survivors. . His work reframes PTSD as a treatable biological injury, not a lifelong psychological sentence. Dr. Lipov is also the author of The God Shot: Healing Trauma's Legacy, which explores the science, stories, and clinical implications of this approach.

One of the most controversial legal stories of the last few months has been the arrest and charging of a number of demonstrators linked to the pro-Palestine group, Palestine Action. To some, their strategies have strayed beyond protest and civil disobedience and into more dangerous territory, but, to others, they are the victims of an over zealous suppression enforced by a society reluctant to look squarely at human rights violations in Gaza. As ever, the Law & Disorder team are on hand to try to unravel some of the thorny legal aspects of this case, and consider what the future holds for protest in Britain.If you have questions, criticisms, praise or other feedback, please do send your thoughts to us via lawanddisorderfeedback@gmail.com!Law and Disorder is a Podot podcast.Hosted by: Charlie Falconer, Helena Kennedy, Nicholas Mostyn.Executive Producer: Nick Hilton.Editor: Lulu GoadAssociate Producer: Ewan Cameron.Music by Richard Strauss, arranged and performed by Anthony Willis & Brett Bailey.

Jan and her family founded Metabolic Mind to raise awareness about the therapeutic potential of metabolic interventions for serious mental illness. Today, Metabolic Mind is helping to bridge the gap between psychiatry and metabolic health by supporting research, educating clinicians and families, and empowering those still searching for answers.

Paul Jay joins Maria Hall, Jim Lafferty, and Michael Smith on the Law and Disorder radio show. They discuss his upcoming documentary How to Stop a Nuclear War, based on extensive interviews with Daniel Ellsberg and narrated by Emma Thompson. Jay reveals how post-World War II economic decisions drove nuclear weapons expansion, explaining why the Soviet threat was largely manufactured according to declassified CIA documents. He breaks down why Trump's proposed “Golden Dome” missile defense system actually increases nuclear war risk, discusses the dangers of AI in nuclear command and control, and outlines seven concrete steps citizens can demand to reduce the threat of nuclear catastrophe, including ending presidential sole authority to launch nuclear weapons and negotiating new arms control treaties.

As this show predicted at the end of 2025, Jeffrey Epstein has become the Disorderer-in-Chief of 2026 – with Keir Starmer's credibility and ability to govern the latest victims of the document release. So how could there possibly be any Order emerging from this Disorder? It is only possible if McSweeney is ejected from Number 10. That is the only answer and the longer Starmer keeps him on, the weaker he will become relative to the Labour backbench. This week, Jason and Jane look at the ongoing fallout from the Epstein files on British high politics and why we need more transparent and more courageous leaders. Plus: the duo investigate the rise of women in leadership roles within the UN, examine upcoming US negotiations on both Russia/Ukraine and Iran/Nuclear, present Jason's observations about the depoliticisation of Trump's America, and answer questions from members of our Mega Orderers Club. Finally, as they Order the Disorder, they imagine a world with new institutions that could actually track what diplomats (current and former) do with state secrets and their privileged access to power.

The sense of hearing is a finely tuned collaboration between physics and biology, transforming invisible sound waves into meaning, memory, and emotion. From the delicate mechanics of the middle ear to the neural pathways that help us localize danger, recognize voices, and enjoy music, hearing quietly shapes how we connect with the world. Yet it's also one of our most vulnerable senses—affected by aging, noise exposure, infection, and even cardiovascular health. How benign are ear pain and ringing? Is there a limit to how loud we should listen to music? And what can we do to protect this sense before silence becomes noticeable?In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Stacey Lim, AuD, PhD, CCC-A, an American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA)-certified audiologist and Professor of Audiology.Dr. Lim received her BA in Communication Sciences and Disorders and German Language and Literature from Wooster College, her AuD (Doctor of Audiology) from the Northeast Ohio Au.D. Consortium at the University of Akron, and her PhD in Audiology from Kent State University. Currently, Dr. Lim is a Professor of Audiology at Central Michigan University, holds a Certificate of Clinical Competence in Audiology (CCC-A) from ASHA, and is a researcher focused on cochlear implants and aural rehabilitation, informed by her personal experience of bilateral, profound sensorineural hearing loss since birth. Previously, Dr. Lim was a Fulbright Scholar at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, studying hearing loss in Germany, a co-Principal Investigator in March of Dimes research on cognitive and linguistic skills related to hearing loss, and the Chapter President at the Alexander Graham Bell Association for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing.Dr. Lim is also a co-curator of (dis)ABLED BEAUTY, a museum exhibition featuring creatively designed adaptive devices, assistive devices, and apparel for people with disabilities.Follow Friends of Franz Podcast: Website, Instagram, FacebookFollow Christian Franz (Host): Instagram, YouTube

Through a compassionate lens, I discuss the types of bipolar disorder, the challenges of diagnosis, and the significance of proper treatment and lifestyle management. - 00:00 Understanding Bipolar Disorder 11:00 The Types and Causes of Bipolar Disorder 16:06 Diagnosis, Treatment, and Management 19:50 Living with Bipolar Disorder: Myths and Stigma -

Today, we pull no punches and tackle a battle that cuts through headlines and hearts—the raging fight over ICE, law enforcement, and the rule of law. In a world seduced by disorder, paralyzed by emotion, and allergic to authority, we plant our flag on Scripture. We honor the men and women defending our borders, upholding law, restraining evil—while culture calls them villains.You want comfort? Look elsewhere. Here, we talk about sacrifice. We talk about spiritual warfare. We talk about the cost—hostility, mockery, rage, and the price of standing tall when others kneel to chaos.Jesus is STILL Lord—even when rebellion masquerades as justice. So what will YOU do when culture calls virtue “evil” and order “oppression”? Will you stand? Or will you shrink?"Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God." – Romans 13:1 The question is: Will you stand or will you surrender when the mental war rages?Episode Highlights:08:32 – This is about whether a nation can survive without the courage to enforce its own laws. This is about whether Christians will think biblically or emotionally. This is about whether truth will stand or be trampled by mob outrage. The fury surrounding ICE isn't Accidental... it's strategic. And if believers don't recognize what is actually happening, we're going to be swept into confusion instead of standing in conviction.16:16 - The truth is simple and uncomfortable. Without law and order, there is no justice, and without justice, there is no peace. Chaos doesn't produce mercy. Disorder doesn't protect the vulnerable. Lawlessness always harms the innocent first. From the opening pages of scripture, God establishes order. Creation itself is an act of divine organization. Disorder is never celebrated in the Bible. Chaos is something God restrains, not something that he applauds.38:44 – Truth spoken without love is brutality. Love without truth is deception. Faithfulness requires both. Christians have got to also reject fear-based silence. Many believers know something is wrong but remain quiet because they fear being labeled, misunderstood or outright rejected. Scripture repeatedly warns against allowing fear to dictate the obedience that we need to exhibit.Connect with Paul M. NeubergerWebsite

JJ welcomes back Michelle Reittinger, author and host of The Upside of Bipolar, for a bold, hope-filled conversation that challenges common cultural narratives around bipolar disorder. Together, they unpack "myths" that can keep people stuck in fear and identity-based labels—and invite listeners into curiosity, root-cause investigation, and a more empowering view of symptoms, healing, and personal responsibility. In This Episode, We Cover ·         Michelle's story: diagnosed in 1998, years of intensive psychiatric treatment, polypharmacy, and a breaking point that became a turning point ·         Why a diagnosis can feel like an "answer," but often doesn't explain why symptoms started ·         The difference between a "cluster of symptoms" and an identified disease mechanism ·         Why curiosity (vs. shame) changes everything—especially with intense symptoms like rage, anxiety, and dissociation ·         The "detective" approach: identifying triggers, patterns, and underlying contributors ·         The role of foundational health (nutrients, sleep, nervous system regulation) in emotional resilience and symptom reduction ·         Why suppressed emotions can show up as anxiety, depression, physical pain, or crisis states ·         How identity, victimhood, and relationship dynamics can unconsciously reinforce staying stuck ·         A grounded reminder: do not abruptly stop medications—tapering/changes should be done slowly and safely with qualified support Notable Takeaways ·         Labels can reduce curiosity—and curiosity is often the doorway to change. ·         "Symptoms" are information; the goal is to explore what they're pointing to. ·         The most empowering question isn't "What's wrong with me?" but "What happened—and what is my system asking for now?" ·         Healing can have a social cost: if your "sick role" has been rewarded with attention, protection, or lowered expectations, getting better can feel threatening (even subconsciously).

As he considers a 2028 presidential run, Rahm Emanuel joined us in studio for a wide-ranging and candid conversation about power, politics, and the moment the U.S. finds itself in right now. Emanuel has served at the highest levels of government — in Congress, as President Obama's first chief of staff, two terms as mayor of Chicago, and most recently as U.S. ambassador to Japan. We dig into the rapidly shifting global order, including Greenland, U.S. alliances, China, Ukraine, Gaza, Israel Iran, and Venezuela. On President Trump's second term, Emanuel acknowledges that he shares some underlying goals — including the need to confront China, fight for the American worker and reassess broken global institutions — but is sharply critical of Trump's tactics, execution, and what he sees as lasting damage to America's image, alliances, and long-term leverage abroad.Emanuel is blunt in his criticism of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's conduct of the Gaza war, while also defending Israel's right to exist and protect itself. He warns that political realities around Israel have fundamentally changed inside the Democratic Party. We talk about what that mean if he decides to run for the Democratic nomination. The conversation also turns personal: growing up in Chicago, parenting, and life as one of the three Emanuel brothers — alongside Ari Emanuel, the legendary Hollywood agent, and Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, a leading physician.
