The problem: people hate crime and think it's going up. But actually, crime barely affects most people and is historically low. So what's going on? In our discussion yesterday, many commenters proposed that the discussion about "crime" was really about disorder. Disorder takes many forms, but its symptoms include litter, graffiti, shoplifting, tent cities, weird homeless people wandering about muttering to themselves, and people walking around with giant boom boxes shamelessly playing music at 200 decibels on a main street where people are trying to engage in normal activities. When people complain about these things, they risk getting called a racist or a "Karen". But when they complain about crime, there's still a 50-50 chance that listeners will let them finish the sentence without accusing them of racism. Might everyone be doing this? And might this explain why people act like crime is rampant and increasing, even when it's rare and going down? This seems plausible. But it depends on a claim that disorder is increasing, which is surprisingly hard to prove. Going through the symptoms in order: https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/crime-as-proxy-for-disorder
Is it OCD, or is your brain just wired differently?

More than 23 million people are in recovery or have recovered from SUD. Stigma associated with recovery needs to decline as the number of people in recovery increases. Recovery is possible, and it's probable. Poison Prevention Educators talk to students and communities about substance abuse prevention. Opioid use disorder has many possible entry points, including using pain killers from surgery or dental work, experimentation, and accidental use. Pharmacists have the opportunity to counsel on proper use and storage of MOUD. Counsel to take oral doses in private, so vulnerable individuals cannot see. Vulnerable individuals, like children or DD adults want to imitate the behavior of others. Avoid medication errors. Remove distractions while taking or giving medications, and read the label every time. Keep a personal MAR, if needed, to remember if a dose has been taken. If a medication error happens, get help (Poison Help or 9-1-1), forgive yourself, and continue your road to recovery. Narcan is import for anyone in recovery from opioid addiction to have. But, a person experiencing an OD will be unable to give themselves Narcan. Make sure your patients educate the people around them about what Narcan is, when to use it, and how to administer it. As a general rule, counsel on calling 9-1-1 after giving a dose of Narcan. It can wear off. Pharmacists should counsel on risks of keeping MOUD in the home: accidental use by a curious, opioid-naive child, confusion with other meds, accidental second dose, etc. Call Poison Help right away with exposure concerns, but skip right to 9-1-1 if the person is not breathing, unconscious, or having a seizure. Poison Center Staff are experts in poison information. They help healthcare professionals and the general public with questions. If you call, you're in good hands. Adults of all ages may be in recovery. It's not just a health condition for young people. Get Poison Help Line magnets for your pharmacy, and share them with your patients. If you need some magnets, call 1-800-222-1222. March is Poison Prevention Month in the United States. National Poison Prevention Week in the US is March 15-21, 2026, and the theme is, "When the unexpected happens, Poison Help is here for you." There is a partner toolkit with images and talking points on https://piper.filecamp.com/s/i/OOt8k1JlBFCc08KH A complete health history is important. Ask about recovery. Include "in recovery from opioid addiction" as a health condition at the pharmacy and with medical providers. Advise patients to inscribe, "Do not give opioids" on medic alert jewelry. Similar advice, advise patient to include "do not give opioids" in the "health app" on their smartphone in case of emergency. Pharmacists (this is a tough one). If you see something, say something. Protect your patient's recovery. If something on your prescription monitoring program suggests that your patient is in recovery, but they are trying to fill prescriptions for opioids, protect their recovery. Maybe a well-meaning dentist, doctor, or surgeon wrote a prescription and didn't know the whole story. Or, maybe your patient wants to relapse. If you see something, say something, even if it feels awkward. Prevent relapses and maybe overdoses with patients who have a lower tolerance for opioids. Be skeptical of natural products and supplements that have been promised to help with opioid withdrawal. Terminology matters. Know your audience, and reflect their preferred language back to them. Avoid terms that are stigmatizing, like "junkie." When in doubt, ask the person you're speaking with how they prefer to call themselves.

Free DNA Activation Masterclass + 21-Day Abundance Meditation: https://masterclass.samuelbleemd.com/dnaPeptides I use personally to regenerate, heal, and stay sharp: https://limitlesslivingmd.com/samuelIn this Q&A episode, Dr. Samuel B. Lee, MD sits down with Anthony, friend and guest host, for an extraordinary conversation about the root causes of mental health struggles, the spiritual dimension of healing, and why the current system often misses the soul entirely. From growing up in a culture where men were told to “suck it up” to exploring a new paradigm of emotional truth, this conversation is a testament to the power of awareness, authentic healing, and remembering who we truly are.Dr. Lee shares how his own lived experience with deep suffering transformed the way he understands depression, anxiety, grief, addiction, ADHD, and spiritual awakening, emphasizing the importance of treating the whole person rather than simply managing symptoms. This episode dives deep into the limitations of modern psychiatry, the connection between intuition and anxiety, and how safe spaces, community, and soul-centered awareness can open the door to profound healing for individuals and families seeking transformation.Sacred Truths & Lessons from This Episode:• Mental health healing begins at the root, not the symptom• Grief is unexpressed love, and feeling it is part of healing• Addiction often points to unresolved trauma beneath the surface• Children are not broken—they may be deeply sensitive and spiritually aware• Authentic connection, community, and purpose are powerful medicine• Bringing the soul back into psychiatry can change everything

Ever been told “it's just PMS”… when what you're experiencing feels so much bigger than that? This episode is here to set the record straight. In this episode we unpack PMDD (Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder); a condition that goes far beyond “bad PMS,” yet is still widely misunderstood and under-diagnosed.We explore what PMDD actually looks like, why it can have such a profound impact on mood, relationships and daily life, and why the explanation is far more complex than hormones alone. From neuroinflammation and nutrient status to gut health and the role of trauma, this episode dives into the deeper biological and emotional drivers that can shape the PMDD experience.We also chat practical, holistic strategies that can support those living with PMDD — along with guidance for partners, friends and family who want to better understand what's really going on.FIND NAT BELOW:Website - https://nataliekdouglas.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/natalie.k.douglasBook a Free Assessment Call - https://NatalieKDouglas.as.me/?appointmentType=50255874EndoNourish - Endometriosis and Adenomyosis Guide - https://nataliekdouglas.com/endonourish-holistic-endometriosis-adenomyoisis-care-guide/SacredSeeds - Preconception Care Guidehttps://nataliekdouglas.com/preconception-care-guide/PCOS Wellness Guidehttps://nataliekdouglas.com/pcos-holistic-guide/Thyroid Rescue - Self guided programhttps://nataliekdouglas.com/thyroid-rescue/Coming Off The Pill/IUD Holistic Guidehttps://nataliekdouglas.com/coming-off-the-pill-mini-course/PMS/PMDD Natural Solutons Masterclass https://nataliekdouglas.com/pms-pmdd-natural-solutions-masterclass/Restore and Nourish Gut Reset - https://nataliekdouglas.com/restore-nourish-gut-reset/Perimenopause Masterclass -https://nataliekdouglas.com/perimenopause-masterclass-holistic-toolkit/Become a one-to-one clienthttps://nataliekdouglas.com/1-1-naturopathic-nutrition-consultations/FIND AMIE BELOW:Book a Free Assessment Call: https://p.bttr.to/3yBdmu3 Book Yourself In: https://l.bttr.to/ZDxWOWebsite - https://whatthenaturopathsaid.com Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thatnaturopathJoin the mailing list - https://elysium-clinic-of-natural-medicine.ck.page/69663ce14a
Well, the quagmire has set in. The Iran war is in its second week and Oil Prices are above $100 a barrel and even though it was clear from the first shots being fired it is now manifest that Trump has no strategy. And his ability to act with impunity shows that constraining leaders to act with strategy rather than just opportunism is a key aspect of democracy and accountability. We are trying to focus on solutions, to see what is working in Britain, and to chat through various amorphous topics, such as: ‘What is Strategy?' and why does democracy have a communications problem. In 2011, statistics show that 11 democracies suffered backsliding into autocracy. Today: that number is in the mid-40s. With Trump's America at the peak of that shift, what can be done to reverse that trend? And better yet, what can be done to protect all democracies going forward? Can institutions be made in advance that could protect democratic backsliding before it happens?!? To build on our recent episode with Graham Zellick on how democracy is protected in the UK, Jason is joined by Richard Symons. Richard is the founder of Compass & Co —a UK-based strategy and communications firm helping leaders with policy, corporate strategy, and clear messaging in complex environments. They discuss the pressing issue of democratic backsliding, what it means, what causes it, some innovative solutions being proposed, including in Wales, and as they Order the Disorder, they look at the need for a ‘right to facts' type law, and why bold leadership is needed to maintain democracy.

“How long until the anxiety goes away? How long until I can drive again? Am I going to be like this forever?”If you are struggling with panic disorder or agoraphobia, these are likely the questions keeping you up at night. I know because I asked them too. But here is the truth: when we ask about "how long," we aren't usually looking for a date on a calendar, we're looking for hope that we aren't broken and healing is actually possible.In this episode, I'm diving deep into the reality of the anxiety recovery timeline. I share why focusing on "when" actually slows you down, why "zero anxiety" is the wrong goal, and how to shift your perspective to finally find the relief you've been searching for.CHECK OUT MY MINI-COURSES HERE: https://www.ahealthypush.com/anxiety-classesTAKE MY FREE QUIZ AND FIND OUT WHAT'S CAUSING YOU TO STAY STUCK: https://www.ahealthypush.com/blocking-quizA HEALTHY PUSH INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/ahealthypush/GET THIS EPISODE'S SHOW NOTES: www.ahealthypush.com/post/how-long

In this second talk of our Lent series, Deadly Sins for Lent, Alisha explores greed — not simply as having a lot, but as the subtle, restless pull for more that can quietly shape our hearts. Through Jesus' words and the story of the rich young ruler, this talk names greed for what it is: a trap, a false promise, and a rival to the life Jesus offers. But this is not a talk about shame. It's an invitation to freedom. As we begin this Lenten journey, we're invited to come honestly to Jesus, to loosen our grip on what cannot satisfy, and to discover the deeper abundance of a life shaped by trust, generosity, and surrender.
In this episode, Professor Louise Serpell is joined by 2026 Rainwater Prize winners Professor Dennis Dickson, Professor Melissa Murray and Dr Marc Busche. They talk about their work and the science that led to them earning this much deserved award, reflecting on decades of research into tau and its role in neurodegenerative disease. The conversation explores how tau functions in the healthy brain, how it becomes harmful in conditions such as Alzheimer's disease and progressive supranuclear palsy, and why certain brain regions are especially vulnerable. The discussion covers different forms of tau, including soluble species that may disrupt how neurons fire before visible tangles appear. Brain banking, imaging and fluid biomarkers are highlighted as key tools for understanding disease differences and improving diagnosis. The importance of rare MAPT mutations and what they can teach us about future treatments is also explored. Alongside the science, there are thoughtful reflections on mentorship, risk taking and the value of asking ambitious questions in dementia research. 10 Key Takeaways

What Stability Really Requires: Breana Grayson on Bipolar Disorder, Stigma, and Support at WorkAmy Pons hosts Women Making Moves and interviews writer Breana Grayson about living with bipolar disorder, what “stability really requires,” and the stigma and misunderstandings that still surround bipolar (“one of the ‘scary ones'”). Breana explains that medication is essential for her but not sufficient; stability also involves therapy, psychiatric care, consistent sleep, exercise, diet, and enjoyable practices like writing, guitar, and “therapy based kind of yoga,” and she defines stability as moving through life without derailing relationships or work. They discuss how menstrual cycles can affect symptoms, Breana's use of cycle tracking and astrology to document patterns, and her diagnosis process at 25 through an intensive outpatient program after work and relationship difficulties. Brianna argues remote and flexible work are not favors but protect productivity, and she advocates proactive workplace support, education, and community so people don't handle bipolar alone.00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro00:47 Stability and Root Chakra01:22 Bipolar Stability Routine02:22 Redefining Normal03:46 Yoga and Creative Coping04:33 Bipolar Stigma Myths05:46 Cycles Hormones Astrology08:51 Sharing Her Story at 2609:23 Diagnosis at 2510:32 Screening and Medication Risks11:58 Childhood Signs and School Support14:58 Remote Work as Accommodation17:51 Workplace Support Strategies20:37 Mental Health Across Generations25:21 Advice Find Community27:04 Where to Follow and Closing
It is a crazy week for the Middle East and the World. For those wanting the Iran War content mentioned at the episode start where Jason appeared on three different podcasts addressing various aspects of the conflict (its congressional illegality; the parallels with the No Fly Zone over Libya; and the Epstein distraction aspects) please consult those links in the shownotes, we think those podcasts are awesome. But back to the matter at hand, Trump certainly knows how to dominate the news cycle but mostly he does so via means that illegal and impeachable in the United States. Why then are the powerful able to be held to account in the UK (e.g. Lord Mandelson and former Prince Andrew) but not in the USA? No one is above the law in Britain. TRULY. Not the Lords, not the Princes of the realm. And Parliamentarians don't decide who is prosecuted and the Government can't protect its friends. And this analysis isn't BS. It is literally vouched for by the people who have designed and operated the current legal system. With the arrest of Lord Mandelson and Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, Britons can TRULY say that their legal system does actually seriously investigate powerful people who have done something wrong and that the system is beyond partisan influence. What makes the British legal system work? And what are its vulnerabilities? Is it more fragile than we realise? Today, Jason Pack is joined by Professor Graham Zellick, a distinguished public and constitutional lawyer, university leader and judge, to explore the UK's rather remarkable constitution (or lack of). They look at the independence of bodies like the Crown Prosecution Service; how and why they are beyond political interference; and whether they need to be protected from a potential future Neo-populist leader. And as they Order the Disorder, they debate whether these bodies need to be strengthened yet further, or if Farage or an equivalent could dismantle them as quickly as Trump has done in the US. They explain that Britian has built into its ‘constitution' a lot of the solutions already and that there is actually much that can be learned from it on the world stage.

Free DNA Activation Masterclass + 21-Day Abundance Meditation: https://masterclass.samuelbleemd.com/dnaPeptides I use personally to regenerate, heal, and stay sharp: https://limitlesslivingIn this Q&A episode, Dr. Samuel B. Lee, MD dives into a bold reframe of modern mental health—one that challenges the “chemical imbalance” narrative and points to what he believes is the real root cause behind most suffering: disconnection from the psyche… the soul. If you've ever wondered why medication can feel like it numbs rather than heals, why grief gets labeled as a disorder, or why anxiety feels like your body screaming a truth your mind hasn't caught up to—this conversation will meet you right where you are.From depression as an absence of meaning, to anxiety as future-based fragmentation, to addiction as an attempt to fill a spiritual void, Dr. Lee explores how reconnecting to your inner truth can restore clarity, purpose, and peace. He also speaks to spiritually sensitive “awakening” experiences that are often misunderstood as pathology, and why so many people feel like the world is in a collective nervous breakdown—when it may actually be a species-level awakening from the inside.Sacred Truths & Lessons from This Episode:• You are not your thoughts—presence is the antidote to suffering• Sadness isn't a malfunction; it can be a message and a sacred release• Anxiety often lives in the future—breath brings you back to now• Addiction can be a symptom of unhealed trauma and spiritual disconnection• Many “disorders” may be unmet needs for meaning, purpose, and soul alignment• You are not broken—you are an eternal being worthy of love and remembrance
Send a textMania shouts; hypomania nudges; cyclothymia lingers. We set out to make those differences unmistakable, using plain language, vivid examples, and a fast decision path you can recall under test pressure or in a busy clinic. If you've ever second-guessed whether a client's “on” streak is hypomania or the start of mania, this guide gives you the anchors you need.We start by grounding Bipolar I in the reality of mania: drastic cuts in sleep, racing speech and ideas, grandiosity, reckless spending, job-quitting at 3 a.m., and the kind of fallout that leads to ER visits, police contact, psychosis, or hospitalization. From there, we contrast Bipolar II, where hypomania boosts energy and confidence without blowing up work, safety, or reality testing—and crucially pairs with at least one full major depressive episode. Then we widen the lens to cyclothymic disorder: a long-term pattern of subthreshold highs and lows that never meet full diagnostic criteria but persist for years with minimal stable stretches.To lock it in, we walk through a concise three-step pathway: See mania? That's Bipolar I. No mania, but hypomania plus major depression? That's Bipolar II. Neither, but years of mood swings below threshold? Think cyclothymic disorder. A case vignette puts this into practice, showing how duration, functional impairment, and symptom thresholds steer you toward the right diagnosis. Along the way, you'll pick up concrete clinical cues—like sleep change, social and occupational impact, and the presence or absence of psychosis—that sharpen both exam performance and real-world assessment.If this clarity helps you think faster and care better, follow the show, share it with a study buddy, and leave a quick review so more clinicians can find it.

At a time when wars dominate headlines, climate disasters intensify, and newsrooms themselves face funding cuts and political pressure , who tells the story, and how, matters more than ever.In a conversation that is both personal and structural, we spoke with Ms. Mitali Mukherjee, Director, Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism, UK. Having led a distinguished career as a business journalist, and now heading one of the world's leading centres for journalism research and policy engagement, she brings both newsroom experience and a global institutional perspective to the discussion. Drawing from her experience in India's broadcast media landscape to the structural shifts reshaping academic and research institutions worldwide, she reflects on what it means to report and research in an era defined by disruption.This conversation looks beyond the daily news cycle to understand the structural forces shaping journalism today. From social defunding and the changing business models of media to the difficulty of sustaining consistent, in-depth climate reporting in an increasingly saturated media environment, we discuss what it takes to support independent journalism and research in uncertain times, and why it continues to matter.

Antifragile Emotions: Build a Life That Gains from Disorder by Sidney Anderson Ph.D. https://www.amazon.com/Antifragile-Emotions-Build-Gains-Disorder/dp/1971262005 In Antifragile Emotions, Sidney Anderson, Ph.D. applies the concept of antifragility to emotional life, offering a transformative approach to building emotional systems that grow stronger through difficulty. Moving beyond resilience, the author shows how to develop emotional capacity that doesn't just withstand life's challenges but thrives on them. Traditional wellness advice emphasizes managing stress, processing trauma, and returning to baseline. But this approach creates fragility when life inevitably delivers loss, rejection, uncertainty, and failure. The antifragile emotional system uses controlled exposure to stressors, multiple sources of meaning, and systematic capacity building to extract value from difficulty rather than merely survive it. Drawing on research into how people respond to major life disruptions, Antifragile Emotions reveals why some people emerge from difficulty genuinely stronger while others remain fragile. It examines the emotional barbell strategy, building redundancy, “skin in the game,” hormesis, and optionality. Readers will discover how to use anger as calibration, extract information from anxiety, build life structures with no single points of failure, and develop emotional range.

What will the American and Israeli strikes on Iran unleash? Peter and Jeremy welcome former diplomat and past Canadian International Council president Ben Rowswell to help unpack the cascading consequences of Donald Trump's latest military endeavour, and how it contrasts with his recent operation in Venezuela. Meanwhile, did Carney's initial support for the attack on Iran to destroy its nuclear weapons potentially contradict his messaging at Davos that middle powers should band together to resist superpower unilateralism?
TDS started a joke, but Trump Derangement is real. How else do such large groups of people work secretly together to steal an election? Or to unleash a virus? Or to push for its dangerous "antidote?" Democrats slow walk the corruption investigations in Minneapolis as Los Angeles taxpayers are getting slapped with a $1 billion tax increase. Why? To pay the sexual abuse and molestation lawsuits against Los Angeles Unified School District teachers.
Clearing the FOG with co-hosts Margaret Flowers and Kevin Zeese
Is the United States a fascist state?

In The Doom Loop: Why the World Economic Order Is Spiraling into Disorder, Eswar Prasad argues that we are caught in a destructive feedback loop between economics, domestic politics, and geopolitics.Prasad is a professor of Trade Policy and Economics at Cornell University, as well as a Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institution. In his new book, he explores how globalization, international institutions, the rise of “middle power” countries, and technological innovations had the potential to promote shared prosperity—but instead are driving global instability.In his conversation with Nikolaus Lang, global leader of the BCG Henderson Institute, he discusses the breakdown of the rule-based system, implications for trade policy in Europe and elsewhere, and the role AI plays in driving global instability.Key topics discussed: 01:20 | The doom loop driving global instability06:41 | The positive aspects of globalization and middle powers12:02 | Implications for European trade policy15:51 | The breakdown of the rule-based system18:36 | The role of AI and other technologies in the doom loop23:57 | Reasons for remaining optimisticAdditional inspirations from Eswar Prasad:The Future of Money: How the Digital Revolution Is Transforming Currencies and Finance (Belknap Press: An Imprint of Harvard University Press, 2023)

This episode features a powerful conversation with neurosurgeon Dr. Lee Warren about trauma, faith, and the science of hope. Drawing from his experience serving in Iraq, battling PTSD, and losing his teenage son, Dr. Warren shares how we can't always control what happens to us—but we can influence how we experience it. Through the lens of his book, The Life-Changing Art of Self-Brain Surgery, he explains the neuroscience of neuroplasticity and how changing our thoughts can literally reshape our brains. Together, they explore how parents can help kids build agency, resilience, and real capability by teaching them to challenge their thoughts, pause before reacting, and grow stronger through hardship.

This week I'm bringing back an important conversation from the archives. Dr. Valerie discovered Patriarchy Stress Disorder (PSD) and created the only science-backed system for helping women achieve their ultimate success, happiness, and fulfillment by healing the collective, inherited trauma of oppression. She is also the author of Patriarchy Stress Disorder: The Invisible Inner Barrier to Women's Happiness and Fulfillment. I met Dr. Valerie at an event late last year. I serendipitously sat at her table and as she was talking about her work and her book, I was enamored. In fact, I invited her onto the podcast on the spot. Her work is important, interesting, and backed by science. When it comes to the patriarchy, as women, there is a deeper issue going on then the blame game. We are not going to heal by pointing fingers. My conversation with Dr. Valerie is just one step of many that will help move women towards healing from the patriarchy. In this episode you'll hear: How Dr. Valerie discovered PSD and how her search began with asking the question, “What is wrong with me?” Oppression is traumatic and it is deep in our DNA Patriarchy does not equal men and men do not equal patriarchy, patriarchy is a system that has been oppressive and disempowering to women PSD is the invisible inner barrier to women's happiness and fulfillment and trauma defenses: mind, body, and action Some of the symptoms or circumstances of PSD (and yes, we all have it) Dr. Valerie's message to men and how to bring them into the conversation and still take care of ourselves Resources mentioned in this episode: Devotion program Andrea's Substack, How Very Human of You Sign up for my emails Instagram reel about men and shame Dr. Valerie Rein's websiteDr. Valerie's 3 Minute Re-Power ToolDr. Valerie on InstagramBook: Patriarchy Stress Disorder: The Invisible Inner Barrier to Women's Happiness and Fulfillment Dr. Valerie Rein has discovered Patriarchy Stress Disorder (PSD) and created the only science-backed system for helping women achieve their ultimate success, happiness, and fulfillment by healing the collective, inherited trauma of oppression.

Her bestselling book, “Patriarchy Stress Disorder: The Invisible Inner Barrier to Women's Happiness and Fulfillment” and her cutting-edge mind-body healing programs have helped thousands of women ditch the game of survival, of “how much can I bear?” and master the game of thriving, of “how good can it get?” Dr. Valerie is a sought-after speaker and trainer at conferences and companies committed to setting new standards of excellence in their industry in diversity, equity, and inclusion, employee satisfaction and physical and mental health, and creativity and innovation.
