This week, STT chats with Stanford Professor, Fullpower AI medical advisor, and founder of Sleep and Brain, Anil Rama MD. Dr Rama brings a concierge approach to sleep disordered breathing and sleep apnea with the thought that it is more than just a breathing disorder. Dr Rama keeps in mind that there is an underlying traumatic brain injury taking place with sleep disordered breathing and goes beyond simple stenting of the airway. Listen in as Dr Rama talks about his approach to OSA and sleep disordered breathing.

Do elections work anymore? 2024 was the biggest year of elections in human history. Major contests were held in the UK, US, EU, France, India, Japan, Moldova, Georgia, and elsewhere. Did these elections work? Were they free and fair? Did their outcomes actually represent the authentic will of the people? Is genuine electoral democracy with its checks and balances even possible in the mid-21st century? Today's guest on Disorder, Ben Ansell holds the contrarian view that democracy is actually alive and well. He asserts that even if we are not happy with recent outcomes, we should still trust the process. Ben Ansell is Professor of Comparative Democratic Institutions at the University of Oxford and Nuffield College. He was the 2023 BBC Reith Lecturer and the presenter of ‘What's Wrong With Democracy?' by Tortoise Media and ‘Rethink' on BBC Radio 4. His most recent book is ‘Why Politics Fails' and he writes the Substack 'Political Calculus'. In the episode, Jason and Ben embark on an around-the-world tour to survey this epic year of elections and analyse the state of democracy globally. They look at the key features that have defined this cycle, especially anti-incumbency sentiments. QUOTE OF THE SHOW ‘This is the only year, 2024, where in every single MAJOR WESTERN country, the incumbents lost votes. They didn't always lose office, but they often did, because when you're losing 5 or 10 % of votes in competitive systems, you're a goner. First off… it looks, if you look at John's FT graph [in the shownotes], things have just got more volatile over the last decade or so anyway. And so that might be just a change among voters, that voters have become more like consumers. I mean, we are all consumers [in our mind sets]. And in most of the countries that have elections in capitalist markets, we [are used to] switching goods all the time. And I suppose there's reason to believe that [moving forward] we might switch parties all the time.' Jason and Ben delve deeper into the unique case of Georgia, where incumbents have managed to increase their majority despite global trends. The duo also cover the outcomes of the European elections, the implications of criminality as a feature rather than a bug of global neopopulism, and the roles of Russian and Chinese influence operations in election results across the world. The episode concludes with Ben – an optimistic mega-orderer by temperament and intellectual conviction – genuinely Ordering the Disorder by saying that Trump can, and will, be contained and that the institutions of American democracy can actually withstand another Trump term.

Enroll in the "What is Biblical Wisdom" Video Course: https://hebrewbibleinsights.teachable.com/p/biblicalwisdomIn today's episode, we sit down with Dr. Alexander Kirk to explore his book, Agur's Wisdom and the Coherence of Proverbs 30. Who is Agur, and why does he stand out as an eccentric genius? What can we learn about wisdom literature from the history of its interpretation? And how do we approach the humor, structure, and deeper meanings in Proverbs 30?Dr. Kirk also shares his journey in biblical studies and gives us a glimpse into the art of philology. Whether you're curious about Agur's unique voice or how to read Proverbs 30 as Christian Scripture, this episode has something for everyone who loves wisdom literature and the Hebrew Bible.“Agur's Wisdom and the Coherence of Proverbs 30” https://a.co/d/2xCSGgf0:00-2:25 Introduction2:26-8:11 Dr. Kirk's journey in biblical studies8:12-11:28 Elevator pitch for Agur11:29-15:23 Order, Disorder, and Stuart Weeks15:24-26:11 History of Wisdom Literature Interpretation26:12-34:20 Agur the Eccentric Genius34:21-45:40 What is Philology?45:41-56:31 Difficult title and the genre of Agur56:32-1:02:52 Humor in the Bible1:02:53-1:09:07 The Big Picture Flow of Proverbs 301:09:08-1:16:05 Reading Agur as Christian ScriptureAlex Kirk joined the faculty of Beeson Divinity School in 2024 to teach Old Testament and Hebrew after serving in global theological education for nearly a decade. He has previously taught in over a dozen countries, at schools like Ecole Superieure Baptiste de Théologie de l'Afrique de l'Ouest in Lomé, Togo, Institut Biblique de la Croix-des-Bouquets in Croix-des-Bouquets, Haiti, and Baptistička teološka škola in Novi Sad, Serbia, as well as helping to launch William Tennent School of Theology in Colorado and serving with Crosslands Training in the UK. Both a philologist and a theologian by training, his academic interests range from biblical Hebrew linguistics and text criticism to poetry, wisdom literature, hermeneutics and theological interpretation of Scripture. His first book, Agur's Wisdom and the Coherence of Proverbs 30 (SBL, 2024), combines many of these interests to present a detailed interpretation of Proverbs chapter 30 as a coherent collection that mocks pride and commends humility as the better part of wisdom. Ongoing projects relate to the relationship of wisdom and law in the Hebrew Bible and Second Temple Judaism, the role of humor in biblical wisdom and theological interpretation of Ecclesiastes.As the son of a pastor and an enthusiast for literature of all types, Kirk is particularly passionate about leading church leaders deeper into the text of the Old Testament to encounter God.

For today's episode, we go back to the origins of Autism. It seems necessary because of the recent shifts in what is Autism and the confusion in the rates of Autism. Autism was here in the 1930's, and it magically showed up in different areas of the world. The two-part series intends to remember the phenotypes that appeared and became known as Autism and Asperger's.It is my opinion, the recent shifts in defining Autism could be rooted in questionable intentions. Regardless, one goal of the podcast is understanding and explaining Autism. By the end of the episode, and by the end of the two-part series, I hope you gain understanding of the Autistic Phenotype.If the children described by Asperger in Autistic Psychopathy in Childhood were alive today, they would receive a smorgasbord of diagnosis.Introduction to the Podcast (00:00:00 - 00:00:41,320):Asperger's Work and Concept of Autism (00:00:41,320 - 00:02:21,040):Historical Context and Asperger vs. Kanner (00:02:21,040 - 00:05:10,520):Case Study: Fritz V.

Send us a textOn this episode of the CMAJ Podcast, Dr. Mojola Omole and Dr. Blair Bigham explore Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), a debilitating condition affecting 5% of people who menstruate, yet it is often misdiagnosed or misunderstood. The conversation builds on insights from the CMAJ article, “Five things to know about…: PMDD,” co-authored by Dr. Erin Brennand, an associate professor at the Cumming School of Medicine in Calgary.Abhi Bala shares her lived experience with PMDD, describing the profound impact of cyclical depressive symptoms, suicidal ideation, and emotional dysregulation on her life. Her journey from misdiagnosis to awareness highlights the importance of tracking symptoms and recognizing patterns linked to the menstrual cycle, which can lead to earlier diagnosis and treatment.Dr. Brennand explains how PMDD is frequently mistaken for depression or bipolar disorder, delaying accurate diagnosis and treatment. She highlights the importance of recognizing that PMDD's cyclical symptoms align specifically with the luteal phase—the final two weeks of the menstrual cycle. Dr. Brennand also discusses evidence-based treatments, including SSRIs, oral contraceptives, and, in severe cases, GnRH agonists.This episode provides valuable insights into diagnosing and managing PMDD, helping physicians better support their patients.For more information from our sponsor, visit rainbowhealthontario.caJoin us as we explore medical solutions that address the urgent need to change healthcare.

Firsthand: How I Solved a Literary Mystery and Learned to Play Kickass Tennis While Coming to Grips with the Disorder of Things (U Michigan Press, 2024) is an exploration—both suspenseful and comic—of the creative process in research writing. The book takes the reader through the ins and outs of a specific research journey, from combing through libraries and archives to the intellectual challenges involved with processing information that contradicts established ideas. More fundamentally, it addresses the somewhat mysterious portion of the intellectual process: the creative and serendipitous aspects involved in arriving at a fruitful research question in the first place. Keith Gandal is Professor of English with a Joint Appointment in American Studies and Creative Writing at The City College of New York. Keith combines this scholarly detective story with a comic personal narrative about how a midlife crisis accidentally sent him on a journey to write a research monograph that many in his profession—including at times himself—were dubious about. While researching how Hemingway, Fitzgerald, and Faulkner faced their forgotten crises of masculinity, Gandal discovers that his own crisis is instrumental to his creative process. Incorporating stories from Gandal's comic romp through the hyper-competitive world of middle-aged men's tennis, adopting pitbulls, and discussing Michel Foucault, Firsthand gives readers an inside look at how to acquire accurate knowledge—about the world, about history, and about oneself.

In a previous video, we talked about dissociation. Dissociation is a defense mechanism where we unconsciously push away conflicting or threatening emotions from our subconscious mind. It's a form of compartmentalizing your feelings so that you do not have to deal with them. Today, let's dive deeper. There are three types of dissociation: dissociative identity disorder, dissociative amnesia, and depersonalization or derealization disorder. While each type has different symptoms, they share various traits. Disclaimer: This video and quiz are not professional diagnoses. If any of the symptoms in this video resonate, please talk to a licensed therapist. We also made a video on the signs you're experiencing dissociation: • 5 Signs You're Experiencing Dissociation Writer: Sara Del Villar Script Editor: Caitlin McColl Script Manager: Kelly Soong Voice: Amanda Silvera ( / amandasilvera ) Animator: ayacchiart YouTube Manager: Cindy Cheong Sources: American Psychological Association.

This week we have a special episode recorded immediately after the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued warrants against both leaders of Hamas and, more strikingly, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. To discuss this, we've dialled up Kenneth Roth, an expert in international law and former executive director of Human Rights Watch. Nicholas Mostyn and Charlie Falconer probe him on whether Israel can meaningfully be accused of genocide or other war crimes and human rights abuses, while Helena Kennedy recounts her experiences as part of the advisory panel that recommended bringing these warrants against Mr Netanyahu.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.Executive Producer and Editor: Nick Hilton.Associate Producer: Ewan Cameron.Music by Richard Strauss, arranged and performed by Anthony Willis & Brett Bailey.PR by Sally Jones.

Tony delves into smiling depression, medication, and natural ways to improve brain chemistry, Persistent Depressive Disorder (PDD), formerly known as dysthymia- and much more! NOTE - Tony is not a doctor, and he shares a helpful way of how medications work that was explained to him, including what neurotransmitters are. What roles do serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine, GABA, and glutamate play in one's mental health, and why do so many of the medications involve “reuptaking,” and what does that mean? Tony's advice is not to be viewed as a replacement for medical advice; he strongly recommends that people meet regularly with their doctor for medical advice. Tony explores the differences between various mental health conditions like PDD, OCD, NPD, and more. He also explores the historical context of dysthymia, the changes in diagnostic criteria with the release of DSM-5, the significance of moving the diagnosis from a personality disorder to a mood disorder, and how the two differ. Additionally, we will discuss treatment options, including therapy and medication, and more practical advice for those struggling with chronic low-grade depression. This episode is packed with insights and is a perfect listen before Thanksgiving for some psychological fun facts to share around the family table.

Ever find yourself wondering why men are still expected to pop the question or why dating apps feel like an endless loop of awkward encounters? Is your dating life one bad date away from becoming a monastic retreat? Trust us, you're not alone. The dating scene is a bit of a rigged game, and we're here to unpack why! HELLO ANXIOUS HUMANS! Did you know that over 80% of the population will experience an anxiety disorder at some point in their lives? That's right! Anxiety is basically the overbearing parent of mental health—always hovering, ready to critique your every move! In this quickie, we're diving deep into how this sneaky little gremlin can throw a wrench in our love lives, sex lives, and relationships like a bad rom-com plot twist. Ever tried to be romantic when your heart feels like it's doing the cha-cha? We'll talk about the physical sensations that come with anxiety, from that delightful stomach flip that starts as butterflies but quickly turns into a full-blown hornet's nest. Then there's the mind game that can turn a sweet date into an internal monologue of “Do I look okay? What if they don't like my choice of pasta? Am I talking too much?!”—and just when you think you might seal the deal, anxiety decides to crash the party, leaving you feeling more like a deer in headlights than a seductive starlet. But wait—let's get steamy! Did you know that nearly 30% of men report experiencing performance anxiety? Yes, that pressure to perform can turn a night of passion into an episode of “Survivor: Bedroom Edition,” where the stakes are high, and the tension is palpable! We'll explore how anxiety can mess with your mojo, making that path to pleasure feel like running a marathon in stilettos—difficult, wobbly, and downright amusing. Join me as I share my personal rollercoaster of living with anxiety every single day. We'll break down tips to not just survive, but thrive in your relationship while juggling those anxiety-induced challenges. And if you're the partner of someone wrestling with this beast, I've got your back, too! We'll discuss effective ways to support your loved one—no, you don't need to don a cape, but maybe bring a little humor and lots of empathy to the table. After all, laughter can be the best aphrodisiac when navigating the murky waters of anxiety. So, buckle up for a fun, sexy, and insightful ride as we navigate the ups and downs of love and anxiety together. Remember, in this wild journey called life, stay safe, stay kind, and—most importantly—stay sexy!

Do patients in labor need continuous bladder drainage? We will review the literature comparing intermittent to continuous drainage. Next, we venture into the art and science of manual rotation for persistent posterior fetal presentations, a skillful maneuver that might just hold the key to lowering cesarean rates. Drawing from comprehensive reviews and trials, including the TURN-OUT trial and studies from UCSF, we debate the efficacy and applicability of manual rotation in various clinical settings. From ultrasound-guided techniques to hands-on learning, gain a nuanced understanding of how this practice might enhance delivery outcomes and reduce interventions. Finally, we learn about Cesarean Scar Disorder, a relatively new diagnosis with important clinical ramifications. 00:00:10 Urinary Catheterization in Labor Management00:16:10 Manual Rotation of the OP Fetus00:49:32 Effectiveness of Labor Positioning Techniques00:58:03 Cesarean Scar DisorderFollow us on Instagram @thinkingaboutobgyn.

Amidst post-election malaise and seasonal depression, Jason is thankful for the Mega-Ordering listeners who sent in their questions to his new address in a bunker underneath the hills of Hampstead (you can reach it by writing to him @ Disordershow@gmail.com). Esther asked ‘To what extent did the Dems actually pander to the woke agenda? Or is that just made up and trumped up by the Republicans since it helps them win points'; Annabelle in Atlanta, Georgia asks ‘Could Taylor Swift solve all the disorder?' while Kerry in the Republic of Georgia asks ‘despite being from rural Vermont, I now feel these days like I barely know America. I do not understand Trump voters. How do we bridge this divide on a practical level?' Jumping off from these prompts Alex and Jason cover myriad topics including: the potential for conflict between China and Taiwan, whether JD Vance could become President before 2028, the ways we can incorporate the lessons of behavioral economics into political decision-making, and the role of the transgender issue in the recent election campaign. Plus: the challenges for liberal elites in truly understanding Trump voters, if Taylor Swift and other celebrities actually helped or hurt the Dems, and why even in these dark days, we can remain optimistic about the potential success of a collective effort to preserve democracy.

Bipolar disorder (BD) is challenging to differentiate from other psychiatric conditions due to its complexity and spectral nature. In fact, approximately 70% of patients with BD are without an accurate diagnosis, evidence-based treatment and management. In this episode of NP Pulse, "Patient Centric Management of Bipolar Disorder: Best Practices for Screening, Diagnosis and Treatment," nurse practitioner (NP) experts Braden Kameg and Lisa Anderson discuss ways in which NPs in primary care, psychiatric and mental health settings may decrease diagnostic delays and avoid misdiagnoses. Learning objectives for this activity include: Review the prevalence, pathophysiology and clinical gravity of BD. Examine evolving screening and assessment best practices to facilitate early and accurate differential BD diagnosis and linkage to treatment. Evaluate the evidentiary base for novel and recently approved BD pharmacotherapies, with a focus on tailored treatment planning for individual patients. Design data-driven and patient-centric treatment plans for BD that integrate patient-specific factors, disease-specific factors and actively incorporate the patient voice. 0.97 CE / 0.97 RX To claim continuing education credit for this program, log in to the CE Center, search for this program by name, complete the post-test and evaluation and then enter the participation code at the end of the podcast.

Are you curious to know if plant medicines like psilocybin and pharmaceuticals like naltrexone can reduce your cravings for alcohol? For women who live and work in mainstream America, the fear of flying to Costa Rica for a psychedelic ceremony ranks right below the fear of telling your doctor how much you really drink. And so we hide. Because the truth could cost us our career or our kids, force us into expensive rehabs and brand us as alcoholics for the rest of our lives. Today I'm talking to Amy Devenny, a hairdresser turned activation coach who struggled for years to control her drinking. She's tried staying sober for years at a time, microdosing with psilocybin and most recently, taking naltrexone. We're having a radically raw conversation about the steps we must take to help ourselves and what it really looks like to overcome alcohol use disorder.

In this episode of The Complicated Kids Podcast, I sit down with Jaclyn Pederson, CEO of Feeding Matters, to unpack the complexities of pediatric feeding disorders (PFD). Jaclyn shares how Feeding Matters supports families and educates professionals on issues that go far beyond picky eating—touching on medical, developmental, and psychosocial aspects of feeding challenges. We dive into the importance of codifying feeding issues under the PFD framework, the hurdles families face in accessing care, and why understanding feeding development holistically is crucial.

Our rationale, resources, and methodology matter. But what about the students who come to us with such deep brokenness and dysfunction that our best efforts to help them go nowhere unless backwards or in circles? The subject of disorders is huge. Here in this bonus episode we're going to look at just one of them: Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD). Wesley King is a father of a RAD child and has experience as a principle. He speaks vulnerably and compassionately about this issue. This talk will help prepare you to approach a situation involving a child with RAD, but it will also take you to a more basic level of questions about student needs than when we're talking about curriculum and rationale. These questions take us deeper into serving both our ordinary students as well as those dealing with RAD or other disorders.
