There are numerous reasons someone might oppose or be skeptical of JD Vance. None of them account for the neocon campaign against him.

Interview starts at 27:10   The neuroscience of spiritual awakening, how Kundalini yoga shaped her life, and why she believes listening inward is especially important in a time of cultural confusion. She also explains how her work in geriatric psychiatry connects spirituality, brain health, stress regulation, and prevention strategies for aging populations. Helen Lavretsky, MD, MS, is a Professor In-Residence in the Department of Psychiatry at UCLA (Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior), a leading geriatric integrative psychiatrist, and a pioneer in mind-body approaches to late-life mental health. https://drhelenlavretsky.com/book/living-from-the-soul/ https://drhelenlavretsky.com/about/   In this episode: Dr. Helen Lavretsky shares her unusual path from the former Soviet Union into psychiatry, neuroscience, and later Kundalini yoga teacher training. She explains how growing up in an atheist Soviet environment still left room for underground spirituality passed through families and oral tradition. She describes a six-month temporary enlightenment experience after Kundalini practice and why it was physically intense, hard to describe, and initially unsustainable. The conversation focuses on her book Living from the Soul and the idea that people are increasingly being pushed to trust their own wisdom instead of outside authorities. She discusses how spirituality shows up in geriatric psychiatry, especially for older adults, dementia caregivers, and long COVID patients dealing with mortality and stress. She argues that meditation, breathing practices, yoga, tai chi, and qigong can improve self-regulation, brain health, and decision-making under pressure. She outlines how brain health should be cultivated across the lifespan, starting in childhood and even in utero, rather than only addressed later in life. She notes that lifestyle factors such as sleep, movement, diet, and stress management matter for dementia prevention and broader cognitive resilience. She emphasizes that meaning, purpose, and connection to soul are central to mental well-being. Key frameworks: Soul-based self-inquiry- asking inwardly what is right for you rather than defaulting to external authority Brain health across the lifespan- prevention beginning in childhood and even before birth Stress self-regulation toolkit- breathing, meditation, yoga, tai chi, and qigong as practical nervous-system supports Constitutional approach to diet- different people may need different foods based on ancestry, metabolism, and predisposition   Become a Lord or Lady with 1k donations over time.

A week ago the leaders of Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan signed the Mecca Joint Defense Agreement. The new defense pact has many in the region and in Washington scratching their heads, wondering what its goals are, whether it will trigger regional realignment, and what new risks it raises in an already volatile region where we've seen geopolitical rivalries deepen - whether it's Pakistan's rivalry with India, Saudi Arabia's relations with the UAE, or Turkey's continued provocations and threats against Greece, Cyprus, and Israel. Beyond the security dimensions of this pact, the economic questions it raises may be more important. This new pact is increasingly seen as undermining US supported projects in which both Greece and Cyprus have invested politically, notably the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor (IMEC).  This comes at a time when Congress is looking to bolster the Eastern Mediterranean's role as a strategic link between India, the Middle East, and Europe. Just this week, a bipartisan group of Congressmen once again stressed the importance of IMEC for US interests in the region, emphasizing the significance of projects like the Great Sea Interconnector (GSI). Beyond Congress, we saw a major development when it came to the GSI earlier this month as months of negotiations between Athens and Paris wrapped up with the French investment group Meridiam acquiring a majority stake in the project. Athens hopes the deal will give both a financial and diplomatic boost to the GSI, which has seen Turkey try to obstruct its progress. These latest moves in the Eastern Mediterranean once again remind us why the region remains critical for global developments, and, more importantly, for US interests. This is a story that we've seen time and again, and as we celebrate America's 250 anniversary, we can't ignore the integral role the Mediterranean has played in shaping this story. Experts Jonathan Schanzer, Vassilis Nedos, and Ian Lesser join Thanos Davelis as we break down all of these issues. A little more info on our guests: Jonathan Schanzer is executive director at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. Vassilis Nedos is Kathimerini's diplomatic and defense editor. Ian Lesser is a Distinguished Fellow and Advisor to the president at the German Marshall Fund of the United States, and a Senior Fellow at the Policy Center for the New South.

In the 1950s, Mao Zedong described the relationship between China and North Korea as “as close as lips and teeth.” Over subsequent decades, the relationship has ebbed and flowed, alternating between close alignment and periods of strain. In recent months, China-NK ties appear to be warming once again. A series of high-level exchanges, including Kim Jong Un's attendance at China's Victory Day parade last September, followed by a trip to North Korea by Chinese Premier Li Qiang the following month, suggest renewed diplomatic momentum. Chinese Foreign Affairs Commission Director and Foreign Minister Wang Yi's visit to Pyongyang in mid-April is the latest sign of this trend. What is driving this renewed rapprochement between China and North Korea, and what are the implications for the United States? To explore these questions, we are joined today by Andrew Scobell. Andrew is a Distinguished Fellow at the Institute for Security and Development Policy's Asia Program and an adjunct professor at Georgetown University. His work focuses on Chinese foreign and security policy, and he has published extensively on China-North Korea relations.

On the eve of talks in Washington between leaders in Lebanon and Israel, Beirut has signaled a push to extend the 10-day, U.S.-mediated ceasefire set to expire this Sunday. The ongoing conflict with Iran has put its proxies' regional struggles into the limelight, as flashpoints continue to emerge, Lebanon chief among them. As a platform for Hezbollah, Lebanon is in a unique political position, balancing an adversary at home while aligning itself more closely with the West amid regional confrontation. Donald Trump has a historic opportunity to rid the Middle East of the Iranian regime if he is willing to commit to the persistence and patience needed to see this operation through. For Israel and Lebanon, is now the time?Ambassador David Hale is a Career Ambassador and Distinguished Diplomatic Fellow at the Middle East Institute. He also currently serves as a Distinguished Fellow with the Wilson Center. Ambassador Hale previously served as US Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs; US Ambassador to Pakistan, Lebanon, and Jordan; and Special Envoy for Middle East Peace. He is the author of American Diplomacy Toward Lebanon: Lessons in Foreign Policy and the Middle East, published by Bloomsbury/I.B. Tauris in February 2024.Read the transcript here.Subscribe to our Substack here.

All eyes are currently on the Gulf due to the US-Israel war with Iran and the disruptions around the Strait of Hormuz. In this two-part series, the Climate Briefing co-hosts and their guests take a deep dive into the region, which plays a crucial role in the global supply of oil and gas. How did the Gulf countries become such dominant fossil fuel exporters? What has this dominance meant for their geopolitical influence? What role have oil and gas played in conflicts and coups in the region? And what might the future hold for the Gulf producers? In the first part of the series, Anna and Bhargabi delve into the history of the region together with Professor Paul Stevens (Associate Fellow at Chatham House; Emeritus Professor at the University of Dundee; Distinguished Fellow at the Al-Attiyah Foundation; and Distinguished Fellow at the Institute of Energy Economics), who has published extensively on energy economics, the international petroleum industry, economic development issues, and the political economy of the Gulf. The second part of the series will focus on how the Gulf producers are approaching — and may be affected by — the energy transition, as well as what the long-term implications of the Iran war might be for the region.  

In today's episode, you'll discover: The neuroscience behind techniques to quiet the brain's emotional centers, allowing you to manage strong, angry emotions while remaining calm. How to apply emotional literacy and de-escalation skills in any volatile situation in 90 seconds or less. The importance of empathy and how you may have a cultural misunderstanding of what empathy really is. To support these three takeaways, I chose a quote from Shifu Kanishka Sharma: "You train to become a Warrior, not a fighter.  The Warrior knows the hell he can let loose, so he chooses the path of peace and respect." About Doug Noll: After a 20-year, highly successful career as a commercial trial lawyer, Doug earned his Master's in Peacemaking and Conflict Management and became a high-conflict mediator/peacemaker. (As a Distinguished Fellow of the International Academy of Mediators, he is recognized among the top commercial mediators globally.) In 2010, at the request of a small group of women serving life and long-term sentences at what was then the largest and most violent women's prison in the world, Valley State Prison for Women in Chowchilla, CA, Doug and his colleague, Laurel Kaufer, began Prison of Peace.

Send us Fan MailPodcast guest, Dr. Jon Geller, graduated from Colorado State's College of Veterinary Medicine at age 44. From a mobile mixed animal practice to Jon building and leading emergency hospitals, to a non-profit founder. An inspiring keynote talk about doing all things in love, soon followed by an encounter with a homeless man and his pit bull, led Jon to change his path again.Jon founded The Street Dog Coalition, providing free veterinary care to pets of people experiencing homelessness. It led him to earn his Master of Public Health from the University of Minnesota. It took him to the Ukraine border, two weeks after the war broke out, where he set up a veterinary tent for refugees crossing with their pets. And it has turned him into one of the most compelling advocates for access to care and the human-animal bond in our profession today.Jon describes his career as moving from one end of the leash to the other — from treating animals to understanding the humans on the other side of that bond, and what it means when that bond is all someone has left.  We also discuss bold ideas for systemic change and why it is never too late to start something that matters.Guest: Jon Geller, DVM, (CSU '95), ABVP Diplomate emeritus, MPH (UMN '24), Distinguished Fellow, National Academies of Practice, Adjunct Faculty, Colorado School of Public HealthResourcesVideo version on YouTubePodcast Episode GuideStreet Dog Coalition websiteWorldwide Vets websiteHABRI policiesSupport the showMore Vet Life Reimagined?

Guest: Dr. Kat Toups What if memory loss and cognitive decline aren't the inevitable parts of aging we've been led to believe? In this episode, our guest is psychiatrist and clinical researcher Dr. Kat Toups, a Distinguished Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association, who shares hopeful, research-based insights that are reshaping how we understand brain aging and Alzheimer's disease. For decades, most Alzheimer's clinical trials have focused on single solutions—usually drugs—targeting one aspect of the disease. Despite massive investment, these approaches have delivered limited results. Dr. Toups explains why this one-size-fits-all model often falls short: Cognitive decline rarely has a single cause. Drawing from recent proof-of-concept and randomized controlled trials, Dr. Toups shares with host Deborah Rozman compelling evidence that a personalized, precision-medicine approach—addressing multiple contributors at once—leads to meaningful improvements in memory, thinking speed, and overall brain function, even in people with mild cognitive impairment and early-stage dementia. In her soon-to-be-published paper, titled Precision Medicine Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease: Successful Randomized Controlled Trial, Dr. Toups shares striking patient outcomes achieved through a whole-person approach that included nutrition, exercise, quality sleep, brain training, and stress management. For the stress reduction intervention, the study incorporated heart rhythm coherence biofeedback and a coherence training technique developed by HeartMath that participants practiced for 10 minutes per day. Dr. Toups selected this for ease of use and high consistency of practice among elderly participants—important factors for long-term adherence and achieving significant outcomes. This episode also brings a deeply human perspective, as Dr. Toups shares her own recovery story from cognitive impairment. At the heart of this conversation is a message listeners rarely hear: Brain aging is not necessarily a one-way path. With this new protocol and early action, protecting—and even restoring—brain health appears far more possible than previously thought. This episode offers clarity and hope for individuals and families navigating concerns about memory loss, Alzheimer's, and brain health as we age. About our guest: Kat Toups, MD, DFAPA, IFMCP, is a distinguished functional medicine psychiatrist, clinical researcher, and thought leader in the field of cognitive health. She collaborated with Dr. Dale Bredesen as the principal investigator on two successful multi-modal precision medicine clinical trials to reverse cognitive decline in patients with mild cognitive impairment and early Alzheimer's disease. With decades of clinical and research experience, Dr. Toups combines psychiatry, functional medicine, and cutting-edge research to uncover and address the root causes of cognitive decline. Her innovative, personalized approach has made her a sought-after speaker, educator, and mentor in the Alzheimer's and dementia prevention community.

Bangladesh will hold a national election in February, after years of political turmoil and the ousting of long-time leader Sheikh Hasina. Her rule of more than a decade delivered strong economic growth but was also accompanied by tighter political control and repeated confrontations with protesters.Sheikh Hasina's party, the Awami League, has been banned. This has brought renewed focus on the Bangladesh Nationalist Party's leader Tarique Rahman, who is the son of former prime minister Khaleda Zia, as well as several emerging challengers.Following years of unrest, the vote is seen as a test of whether Bangladesh can move towards political stability.This week on The Inquiry, we're asking: What does the national election mean for the future of Bangladesh?Contributors Shaheen Mamun, Executive Director of the Jargoron Foundation, London, UKZia Chowdhury, journalist, Dhaka, Bangladesh Rounaq Jahan, Distinguished Fellow at the Centre for Policy Dialogue, Dhaka, Bangladesh Constantino Xavier, Senior Fellow at the Centre for Social and Economic Progress, New Delhi, India Presenter: Tanya Beckett Producer: Matt Toulson Researcher: Evie Yabsley Editor: Tom Bigwood Technical Producer: Cameron Ward(Photo: A woman casting her ballot during the 2024 national election in Bangladesh.
