Meghan talks with investigative journalist and bestselling author Sam Quinones (Dreamland, The Least of Us) about the piece of the homelessness crisis we're often encouraged to treat as secondary: synthetic drugs, especially methamphetamine, and its connection to the rapid rise of street psychosis and encampment life. Sam explains how today's meth is fundamentally different from the "tweaker" era of the 1990s and early 2000s: cheaper, purer, more abundant, and more destabilizing. Known as P2P meth, this new form was perfectly suited to mass industrial production and reshaped street homelessness across the country, including places that historically had little visible homelessness at all. They also talk about the limitations of a single-cause narrative ("it's all housing costs"), the realities of Housing First, and why many recovery stories begin not with compassion-as-policy, but with the unpopular intervention that removes access to drugs: arrest and incarceration.    And then for something completely different . . . Sam talks about his delightfully unexpected new book, The Perfect Tuba, and why band, discipline, and collective effort may offer a strange but persuasive antidote to a culture increasingly engineered for addiction.  Guest Bio: Sam Quinones is an investigative journalist and bestselling author whose work focuses on addiction, drug trafficking, and social breakdown in the United States. He is the author of Dreamland, which examined the origins of the opioid epidemic, and The Least of Us, about fentanyl, methamphetamine, and the transformation of American street life. His latest book, The Perfect Tuba, explores community, discipline, and fulfillment through the unlikely world of band and brass instruments. He writes the Dreamland newsletter on Substack and hosts a podcast on addiction, recovery, and public policy.

GLP-1 weight-loss drugs such as Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound and Mounjaro are reshaping the treatment of obesity — and transforming the global pharmaceutical market.Originally developed to treat type-2 diabetes, these injectable medicines — including semaglutide and tirzepatide — are now widely prescribed for weight loss, with growing evidence they can also reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke.But in the United States, access to GLP-1 drugs often depends on insurance coverage — and on who can afford to pay.In this first episode of a three-part Business Daily series on the global weight-loss economy, Sam Fenwick examines the real cost of obesity drugs in the U.S. healthcare system.How much do GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound and Mounjaro actually cost? Are they cost-effective in the long term? And can insurers and employers afford to provide them to millions of Americans living with obesity?If you'd like to get in touch with the team, our email address is businessdaily@bbc.co.ukProduced and presented by Sam Fenwick.Business Daily is the home of in-depth audio journalism devoted to the world of money and work.

Cindy Eckert, entrepreneur, investor, and the central figure in the new Paramount+ documentary The Pink Pill: Sex, Drugs & Who Has Control. The documentary film examines the decade-long, uphill battle to get the first FDA-approved medication for female libido, Addyi, approved and brought to market. Directed by Aisling Chin-Yee, the film highlights the stark contrast between the fast-tracked approval of Viagra for men and the intense, often biased scrutiny faced by advocates of "female Viagra.” Eckert fought for 10 years to bring Addyi to market, facing regulatory roadblocks and public skepticism, ultimately revealing systemic gender bias in healthcare.

Carmen Lauber, Former Richins' Housekeeper, testifies in the Kouri Richins trial.Kouri Richins stands accused of poisoning her husband Eric Richins with a lethal dose of fentanyl in March 2022—allegedly to collect on a $1.9 million life insurance policy she secretly increased just weeks before his death.

“I like to be a team player. All the projects I do are collaborations. And I want to solicit the opinions and help of other people.” — MadonnaIn this episode we explore Madonna's work as part of an ensemble, where her screen presence shifts from center stage to something looser, sharper, and often more playful.First we visit Bloodhounds of Broadway, a strange, stylish Prohibition-era anthology packed with eccentrics, jazz, and theatrical energy. Madonna appears as Hortense Hathaway, drifting through smoky nightclubs and overlapping storylines in a film that feels less like a traditional movie and more like a late-night fever dream.Then we head to A League of Their Own, where Madonna's Mae Mordabito steals scenes with confidence, comedy, and unforgettable locker-room energy. We talk about why this role works so well for her, how the film balances multiple storylines, and what it reveals about Madonna as a character actor inside a beloved ensemble classic. To help us unpack the film's tone, performances, and where Madonna fits inside its chaos, we're joined once again by friend of the pod (check her out in our episode on Dick Tracey), MERRY GRISSOM! Merry helps us look at each film's legacy, their cultural impact, and the raw star power of Madonna.Email us: TheCelebrationCelebration@gmail.comFollow us on Instagram: @TheCelebrationCelebrationPick up a copy of Eric's book: The Dancerhttps://a.co/d/0gAi3bePick up a copy of John's book: Baked!

It's been a week that began in silence in Independence Square, where European leaders laid flowers for Ukraine's war dead — even as the fighting grinds on in the east, across vast drone-dominated front lines in territory Russia now claims as its own.

We hear from a Mexican city in Sinaloa state where one of the big drug cartels is locked in its own civil war. Our correspondent Quentin Sommerville visited the state capital, Culiacán, where he witnessed scenes of brutal violence that have brought pain and terror to residents. Also: Cuba says its coastguard has killed four people on board a US-registered speedboat, in an exchange of fire off the Cuban coast. It said those on the boat were Cubans, living in the US, with a history of violent activity - and "terrorist" intentions. The American Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, called the shootout "highly unusual" and said the US would conduct its own investigation into the incident and not rely on the Cuban version of events. A British clinical trial on more than 500 people across 15 countries found that a new tablet to treat HIV - which combines two current treatments - is highly effective at keeping the virus suppressed. A BBC Eye investigation has revealed that Nepal's top police officer gave the order allowing the use of live fire during last year's deadly crackdown on Gen Z protests - one of the worst in the country's history. And the robot that conducted Denmark's National Symphony Orchestra. We have the verdict on its performance. The Global News Podcast brings you the breaking news you need to hear, as it happens.

This episode kicks off with dramatic global headlines, celebrity chaos, and major reality‑TV shakeups. The team breaks down the deadly confrontation between a Florida‑registered speedboat and the Cuban Coast Guard, a shootout that left four people dead and six injured. Cuban authorities allege the boat’s occupants—armed Cuban nationals living in the U.S.—opened fire first and were attempting a “terrorist infiltration,” prompting an international investigation and heightened political tension. The crew then dives into the explosive report that Cardi B allegedly flipped out backstage at SNL, destroying equipment after overhearing a joke referencing Nicki Minaj’s MAGA affiliation during rehearsals for the show’s 1,000th episode. Though the joke never aired, outlets report she threw her phone, punched a screen, and threatened to walk out before performing. Reality‑TV fans get big news as Pinky Cole and K. Michelle officially join The Real Housewives of Atlanta for Season 17, with Bravo signaling a major franchise reset. Cole enters with her Slutty Vegan empire storyline, while K. Michelle brings music‑industry pressure, a bold personality, and a shift into country music—all expected to shake up the cast dynamic.

Book a Complimentary 15-Minute Discovery Call with Dr. Mary - https://www.drmarysanders.com/meditationsIf you're living with chronic joint pain, morning stiffness, inflammation, fatigue, or a body that feels unpredictable, you're not alone. For millions of people with rheumatologic conditions, daily life can feel like a constant negotiation with symptoms, managed, medicated, yet never fully resolved.In this episode of Energy Medicine, we explore a different question:What if your symptoms are not something to silence, but signals asking to be understood?Host Dr. Mary, a medical intuitive and chiropractor, is joined by Dr. Nisha Manek, a rheumatologist turned bestselling author, speaker, and health coach. Trained in academic medicine, Dr. Manek courageously stepped beyond a drug-only model of care after witnessing its limitations. Together, they unpack what becomes possible when science and spirit meet, and when the body's innate intelligence is finally given space to lead the healing process.This conversation offers hope, clarity, and a grounded reimagining of healing for those seeking relief beyond symptom suppression.In this episode, you'll hear:Dr. Manek's personal journey from academic rheumatology to integrative, drug-free healingWhat first caused her to question whether pharmaceuticals were the primary path to wellnessWhat recognizing the power within really means from a physiological and clinical perspectiveHow nervous system regulation, energy, and the biofield fit into modern medical understandingWhy do symptoms often appear when the body has lost regulation and coherenceWhat a new medical paradigm could look like, and what medicine is being asked to releaseWhat is at stake for patients if healing continues to focus only on symptom managementWhy this conversation mattersRheumatologic conditions are often treated as lifelong problems to manage rather than systems to understand. This episode invites a more compassionate, integrative perspective that honors the body's wisdom, supports regulation and resilience, and opens the door to healing beyond medication alone.Contact Dr. Mary:FB   / dr.maryesanders  IG   / dr.maryesanders  YouTube    / @dr.maryesanders  LinkedIn   / drmaryesanders  Website https://www.drmarysanders.com/Contact Dr. Nisha Manek:LinkedIn:   / feed  Website: https://www.nishamanekmd.com/About the podcast:Energy Medicine is hosted by Dr. Mary, a medical intuitive and chiropractor.

Eric King was sentenced to 10 years in federal prison after trying to firebomb a government building with Molotov cocktails, but the real story is what happened once the cell door slammed shut. In this episode, he breaks down how a politically motivated arson case turned into nearly 8 years in solitary confinement, brutal clashes with staff, and a fast-track transfer into America's most notorious federal supermax, ADX. From the mindset it takes to target the government, to the moment he realized he might never see general population again, Eric gives an unfiltered look at control units, isolation, and life in a place built to break you. If you've ever wondered what actually happens to “the worst of the worst” once they disappear into the federal system, this conversation is your inside look at the cost of that choice. _____________________________________________ #ianbick #prisonlife #truecrime#prisonstories #inmatelife #jailstories #justicesystem #worstprisons _____________________________________________ Buy Eric King's Book: https://pmpress.org/index.php?l=product_detail&p=1872 _____________________________________________ Thank you to AVA for sponsoring this episode: Take control of your credit today.

U.S. Democratic Congressman André Carson was not in attendance at President Donald Trump's State of the Union Tuesday night. Governor Mike Braun would have more authority over the selection of Marion County judges under a bill through the legislature, despite objections from state Democrats worried the city is being targeted. The Indiana Senate has approved a major shakeup for Indianapolis schools. A controversial Indiana bill targeting abortion-inducing drugs is effectively dead this session. Indianapolis will receive over thirteen million dollars as part of a federal program for local communities. Want to go deeper on the stories you hear on WFYI News Now?

Ozempic and other GLP-1 drugs have had a major impact in their short time on the market—currently, one in eight Americans say that they have been on GLP-1 drugs. As tens of millions of people take these medications, anecdotal evidence has emerged that they have a positive effect on alcohol abuse and drug addiction. Researchers are starting to run trials of the drugs for these purposes, and some speculate that GLP-1 drugs could even affect addiction behaviors such as gambling and online shopping. The physician and New Yorker medical correspondent Dhruv Khullar spoke with scientists and patients. “Over the course of my reporting,” he tells David Remnick, “I became more and more bullish on the idea that these are actually going to be really important molecules for the treatment of addiction.” Dhruv Khullar's “Can Ozempic Cure Addiction?” was published on February 9th. New episodes of The New Yorker Radio Hour drop every Tuesday and Friday. Join host David Remnick as he discusses the latest in politics, news, and current events in conversation with political leaders, newsmakers, innovators, New Yorker staff writers, authors, actors, and musicians.

The GLP-1 drug revolution has taken the medicine world by storm. I've done several episodes on the science of GLP-1s. But we've never done an episode like this before, where we talk to one of the most important people in charge of guiding the GLP-1 drug revolution. Our guest is Dave Ricks, the CEO of Eli Lilly, the largest pharmaceutical company in the world. First we talk about what makes the GLP-1 drug category special and the science that Lilly is doing to improve these drugs. Then, we talk about the pharmaceutical industry more broadly. How it works. How it could work better. And I don't shy away from the question that I think Pharma CEOs need to take much more seriously: If the pharmaceutical industry is theoretically more devoted than any other economic category to saving people's lives, why do Americans distrust it more than any other industry in the entire economy?

Dr. Mark Tarnopolsky's VO2 max was once 87.6 ml/kg/min — an elite-level mark few humans have reached. He's competed at three world championships in three different sports. He's also had three cardiac ablation surgeries, bled from his bowels after races, and watched his vision tunnel to a speck crossing a finish line. His story is a master class in where the line falls between peak performance and self-destruction.Now 63, Tarnopolsky is a neurologist, neuromuscular disease specialist, and supplement formulator who has channeled decades of elite athletic experience and hundreds of published studies into the idea that keeping metabolic throughput high is what protects us as we age.In this conversation with Dom D'Agostino, he shares practical strategies anyone can apply: why resistance training three times per week is non-negotiable after 50, why post-exercise nutrient timing improved performance in a simulated training camp with identical calories, why he says creatine belongs in nearly everyone's regimen, and why he personally takes his mitochondrial supplement stack situationally after hard efforts rather than daily.Questions Answered in This Episode:What is the only intervention proven to extend human lifespan — and by how much?At what point does endurance exercise become pro-aging — and what are the warning signs?What simple nutrient timing strategy improved performance with zero extra calories?How did a bodybuilder bar conversation lead to a published discovery about growth hormone and collagen?What muscle and bone costs of Ozempic aren't getting enough attention?Why did elite endurance athletes need nearly as much dietary protein as bodybuilders — and why were bodybuilders massively overconsuming?This conversation reframes the longevity debate around what's actually been proven in human clinical trials — not Petri dishes, not animal models, and not social media influencers.Special thanks to the sponsors of this episode:✅ Troscriptions – Get 10% off your first order with code METABOLICLINK here.✅ Toups and Co – Get 15% off your first order with code METABOLIC here.✅ iRestore – Get a huge discount on the Elite and the Illumina bundle here. ✅ MudWtr – Get up to 43% off + free shipping and a free rechargeable frother with code METABOLICLINK here.In every episode of The Metabolic Link, we'll uncover the very latest research on metabolic health and therapy.

Send a textExplore the chaotic and visionary mind of Philip K. Dick, the legendary author behind Blade Runner, Total Recall, and Minority Report. In this episode of The Day's Grimm, Brian Michael Day and Thomas Grimm dive deep into a life that was arguably weirder than the science fiction stories it inspired.From the tragic infancy of his twin sister to his final days on the cusp of Hollywood fame, Philip K. Dick (PKD) lived on the edge of reality. We examine the "amphetamine-fueled" writing sessions where he produced up to 11 novels in two years, his five failed marriages, and the deep-seated paranoia that led him to believe the FBI was monitoring his every move.A central focus of this deep dive is the bizarre 1974 "2-3-74" event, where Dick claimed a pink beam of light transmitted divine information directly into his brain. This experience sparked an 8,000-page journal known as the Exegesis, where he wrestled with questions about ancient Rome, Gnosticism, and the nature of our reality—decades before "The Matrix" made these concepts mainstream.Whether he was a prophetic genius or a man struggling with substance-induced psychosis, PKD's influence on modern pop culture is undeniable. Join us as we break down the drugs, the delusions, and the legacy of the man who dared to ask: "What is real?" If you enjoyed this deep dive into PKD's chaotic life, hit the subscribe button and drop a comment below letting us know which author or historical figure we should cover next! TIMELINE: 00:00 - Introduction to Philip K.

"Why are we paying $10,000 for a $30 drug?"My guest this week is Pramod John, a former Silicon Valley tech entrepreneur who entered the healthcare space to tackle the largest economic problem in the country: skyrocketing healthcare costs. Pramod quickly realized that healthcare's dysfunction is actually not a technology problem - it is a deeply ingrained problem with economic incentives.In this episode, we dive into the murky waters of Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs) and why the traditional model is designed to drive up costs rather than lower them. We discuss the shocking statistics of drug spend (where 2% of people account for 55% of the costs), why FDA approval doesn't always mean a drug is effective (using the infamous Alzheimer's drug as an example), and the implications of recent fiduciary lawsuits like the one against J&J.Pramod explains how we can bring common sense back to healthcare by treating drugs like any other consumer purchase. By utilizing an "open market" drug management model, he argues that we can effectively replace traditional PBMs with transparent transaction processing software - saving plans 30% to 50% without relying on restrictive formularies or rebate games. Tune in this week for a clear roadmap for how to actually fix the irrational economics of our healthcare system.Thank you to our 2026 sponsors!ParetoHealth: ParetoHealth empowers midsize employers with a long-term solution to reduce volatility and lower overall health benefits costs.

Over 1.5million adults in the UK tried weight loss drugs in 2024-25. Many swear by them, but they have been associated with side effects including nausea and, in some cases, extremely painful gallstones. But what does the evidence actually tell us, and what is the wider impact on the way we view our bodies in society?James Gallagher is joined by Professor of Cardiometabolic Medicine at the University of Glasgow Naveed Sattar, Dr Beverley O'Hara, Lecturer in Public Health Nutrition at Leeds Beckett University, and Dr Margaret McCartney, resident Inside Health GP. They discuss what the evidence tells us about the potential known side effects of these weight loss drugs, and the potential impact their use has on our view of obesity as a society. We also hear from Sarah Le Brocq, who has struggled with obesity all her adult life and has been on these drugs for the past 2-3 years about her experiences. Margaret McCartney has no conflicts of interest to declare.Beverley O'Hara has no conflicts of interest to declare. She has 2 roles with the Association for the Study of Obesity (voluntary academic positions).Naveed Sattar has consulted for and/or received speaker honoraria from AbbVie, Amgen, AstraZeneca, Boehringer Ingelheim, Carmot Therapeutics, Eli Lilly, Gan & Lee, GlaxoSmithKline, Hanmi Pharmaceuticals, Kailera, Mass Medicines, Menarini-Ricerche, Metsera, Novo Nordisk, Pfizer, Regeneron, Roche, UCB Pharma, and Verdiva Bio; and received grant support paid to his University from AstraZeneca, Boehringer Ingelheim, Novartis, and Roche.Presenter: James Gallagher Producer: Hannah Fisher Researcher: Tom Hunt Production coordinator: Stuart Laws Content Editor: Ilan Goodman

Jason Abreu grew up in a good family, on track to become a lawyer, until the recession blew up his plans and pushed him into the New York City nightlife scene. What started as legit nightclub promoting slowly turned into moving drugs through NYC clubs, big money, fast nights, and a double life he thought he had under control. Then undercover cops took him down, and Jason was sent to New York state prison. He got out, went right back to the game, and got caught again, earning a second trip upstate. In this episode, Jason sits down with me and breaks down exactly how it happened: the first bad decision, how the nightclub world really works, the rush of easy money, the takedown, and what New York state prison is actually like on the inside, from daily politics to survival _____________________________________________ #NYC #NewYorkStatePrison #PrisonLife #UndercoverCops #DrugDealing #NightclubCrime #TrueCrime #prisonstories _____________________________________________ Thank you to 300 LETTERS for sponsoring this episode: Visit http://300letters.org/ to learn more or get support.
