Comedian Matt Pennington returns to If This Doesn't Work… for a conversation that somehow moves from internet arguments and dispensary customers to childhood Adderall, getting arrested with mushrooms, cocaine heart-rate experiments, fear of looking cringey, and one of the best period-sex analogies ever told.Matt talks about working at a dispensary, why “sativa versus indica” does not tell the whole story, sitting in the front seat of a police car after being caught with mushrooms, growing up medicated for ADHD, and watching someone attempt an absolutely irresponsible amount of cocaine in a single sniff.We also get into sovereign citizens, internet rage bait, drug-fueled art, Bill Hicks, Bill Burr, Patrice O'Neal, local comedy, and why some comedians would rather post nothing than risk looking embarrassing for ten seconds.Follow Matt Pennington on social media and support live comedy in Baltimore.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattpenning10/X: https://x.com/mattpenning10Threads: https://www.threads.com/@mattpenning10YouTube: @MattPenningtonTSRSubscribe to If This Doesn't Work… for full conversations, stand-up stories, bad decisions, and occasional evidence that the internet was a mistake.Follow the Podcast:

In episode 2 of the Tim G miniseries, Tim dives into a raw and intense firsthand account of life inside one of Texas' most violent prison units. He breaks down what it was like arriving young, white, and unprotected in a heavily segregated environment where respect had to be earned fast. He talks about the politics between prison gangs, corrupt officers, contraband hustles, riots, extortion, violence, and the daily survival mindset required to make it through. From guards being flipped for drops, to inmates running serious money operations behind the walls, this conversation exposes how chaotic and dangerous Texas prison life could really get. Tim also reflects on how older inmates taught him discipline, street wisdom, and the importance of carrying himself with respect — lessons that shaped the way he moved both inside and after prison. A brutal, unfiltered look at prison politics, survival, and the hidden economy behind the walls. Topics covered: Texas prison violence, prison gangs, Bloods and Crips, Mexican Mafia, Texas Syndicate, contraband, corrupt guards, prison riots, extortion, survival, redemption, and life after incarceration.

From cannabis legalisation in the United States to the rise of psychedelics as wellness and productivity tools, the global politics of drugs is being rapidly transformed. But who really benefits from the legalisation of recreational drugs? In this episode, journalist and author Atossa Araxia Abrahamian speaks with Kojo Koram, Professor of Law and Political Economy at Loughborough University, about his new book The Next Fix. Drawing on reporting from Colombia, Ghana, Scotland and the United States, Koram traces the shifting relationship between criminalisation, capitalism and public health. The conversation examines the roots of drug regulation in empire, the racial inequalities embedded in prohibition, and the growing tension between movements seeking justice and corporations seeking profit from newly legal markets. Koram also explores how substances once associated with criminality are being rebranded for elite consumption - as therapeutic treatments, Silicon Valley productivity aids and investment opportunities. At its centre is a wider question about power and inequality: who benefits when drugs move from the underground economy into the mainstream? Kojo Koram is Professor of Law and Political Economy at Loughborough University. He is the author of The Next Fix: The Winners and Losers in the Future of Drugs. Atossa Araxia Abrahamian is a journalist who writes about the cracks in the nation-state system. She is the author of The Hidden Globe: How Wealth Hacks the World.

This week Black on Black Cinema finally gives Sugar Hill (1994) the deep analysis it deserves. Directed by Leon Ichaso and written by Barry Michael Cooper — the architect behind New Jack City and Above the Rim — Sugar Hill is the second and most emotionally dramatic entry in Cooper's Harlem Trilogy. Wesley Snipes as Roemello Skuggs, a high-level Harlem drug dealer who wants out. He's got money, power, a woman he loves in Melissa (Theresa Randle), and a future waiting for him if his volatile brother Raynathan (Michael Wright) and the game itself will let him leave.We break down what makes Sugar Hill flawed but still underrated. Cooper's layered screenplay that tries to give Roemello genuine intellectual depth (Georgetown scholarship-eligible, chess player, art collector), Michael Wright's explosive performance as the brother who can't escape the past, and Leon Ichaso's atmospheric direction that turns Harlem into a character of its own. Terence Blanchard's jazz-inflected gives the film a serious connection to Spike Lee's own work. Clarence Williams III steals scenes effortlessly, and Ernie Hudson has a good time as a villain this time around.We discuss why it got overshadowed by New Jack City, how it works to keep the idea of Wesley Snipes being one of the coolest dudes in this era. Sugar Hill has its flaws from scenes that in hindsight are oddly placed (potentially post edit bay issues), some characters who aren't as explored as actual human beings, but there is still something here worth talking about and the effort of making a gentlemen gangster film with the same actor who was notorious for playing one of the most brutal gangsters in the 90s era is something to admire here.Black on Black Cinema is a long-running podcast featuring in-depth Black movie reviews and frank conversations that matter to the Black community.

If your loved one with Alzheimer's disease is on one of the new treatment drugs, or you have been weighing whether to try them, the headlines from this spring may have stopped you cold. A major review from one of the most respected research organizations in the world concluded these drugs show no meaningful benefit. Researchers immediately fired back. And you are in the middle of all of it, as a caregiver trying to make real decisions for a real person. Your confusion is completely warranted. This is not a simple story. One headline says breakthrough. The next says it does nothing. But the full picture is more complicated than either side is telling you. In this episode I walk you through what the Cochrane review actually found, why experts are so divided on it, and the three questions you can bring to your loved one's neurologist to make a more informed decision for your specific family.

In today's Episode Rewind, we're revisiting our interview with Dr. Emily Pasman. Dr. Pasman talks about her article Nonabstinence Among US Adults in Recovery From an Alcohol or Other Drug Problem. She discusses the findings from her study as well as the potential limitations of using a solely abstinence-focused treatment and recovery model for addiction care. Emily Pasman is a licensed social worker and postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Michigan Center for the Study of Drugs, Alcohol, Smoking, and Health. Her research aims to improve health equity for people who use drugs by expanding harm reduction interventions; supporting affected family members; and addressing disparities in service access, uptake, and outcomes. Grounded in her practice background in peer-delivered services, she uses participatory methods to engage people with lived and living experience in all aspects of the research process. - Article Link: Nonabstinence Among US Adults in Recovery From an Alcohol or Other Drug Problem
Καλεσμένος ο Δρ. Αριστομένης Τουρβάς, Παθολόγος–Εντατικολόγος, με πιστοποίηση SCOPE και εξειδίκευση στην παχυσαρκία. Μια νέα εποχή φαίνεται να ξεκινά στην αντιμετώπιση της παχυσαρκίας. Σε κλινικές μελέτες ενός νέου φαρμάκου, ασθενείς έχασαν πάνω από το 25% του βάρους τους. Μέσα σε λίγα χρόνια, φάρμακα όπως το Ozempic, το Wegovy και το Mounjaro πέρασαν από τα ιατρεία και τα επιστημονικά συνέδρια, στα πρωτοσέλιδα, στα social media και στις καθημερινές συζητήσεις. Για κάποιους αποτελούν μια επανάσταση στην ιατρική. Για άλλους, μια εξέλιξη που συνοδεύεται από μεγάλες προσδοκίες αλλά και σημαντικά ερωτήματα για την ασφάλεια, τη χρήση και το μέλλον τους. Μπορούν πραγματικά αυτά τα φάρμακα να αλλάξουν τον τρόπο με τον οποίο αντιμετωπίζουμε την παχυσαρκία; Πόσο αποτελεσματικά και πόσο ασφαλή είναι; Σε ποιους απευθύνονται; Και βρισκόμαστε πράγματι μπροστά σε μια νέα εποχή στην ιατρική; Ίσως στη σημαντικότερη εξέλιξη στην αντιμετώπιση της παχυσαρκίας από τότε που η ιατρική άρχισε να τη θεωρεί νόσο;

Rhaja Rose grew up in Arizona — raised by his mom and stepfather without his father in the picture. Despite a passion for football that could have taken him somewhere, he dropped out of high school and joined the Crips. A home invasion led to a murder charge that sent him to Arizona's prison system for 12 years. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, Rhaja opens up about surviving some of Arizona's most violent prisons — the gangs the politics and the daily violence that defines life behind bars. But halfway through his sentence something shifted. He dialed in, earned a college degree from inside his cell, turned his life completely around and came home with a new purpose — becoming a tattoo artist and building a life nobody saw coming. _____________________________________________ #gang #TrueCrime #prison _____________________________________________ Thank You To CASH APP For Sponsoring This Episode: Download Cash App Today: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/6pao71et #CashAppPod Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

After former satanist Jordan Nettleton quit psychedelics and entered rehab, he expected peace.

WORT 89.9FM Madison · The Line Between Recreation and Medication is Finer than You Think Today Professor Nicholas Powers joins Ali Muldrow in a conversation about his new book, Black Psychedelic Revolution. Psychedelics such as LSD and ketamine are beginning to gain popularity as increasing evidence supports promising treatments of psychological conditions, trauma, and changing one's autobiographical narrative. They also heard from callers who shared transformational personal experiences while using psychedelics. What is the difference between recreation and medication? Powers suggests that the line may be finer than you think. The idea is that recreational activities like art, poetry, or even psychedelic drugs can be healing. Powers also noted that the most safe way to have a psychological experience is in a controlled and safe environment with a guide. If a person is in a state of trauma or depression, the chemicals from these drugs might lead to a further inability to cope once the trip is over, and that is when these drugs can become addictive. However, Powers emphasized that it's the prior state of trauma that creates the addiction rather than the drug itself. Powers said that the way these psychedelic drugs work is by inhibiting the ego, which leads to questioning core beliefs and the stories you were told about your life. This is why after a psychedelic trip, people often change their previously held beliefs. It is also why people tend to change their beliefs the most during college. During the transition period between being reliant on your parents and becoming an independent adult, young people question the stories that they were told. Powers encourages this kind of discussion in his college classrooms and asks his students to try to find the truth in their experiences. Additionally, there is a surge in the glamorization of drugs and removing the stigma associated with them. Drugs such as ritalin or adderall are given to children at younger ages reducing the stigma for using drugs to treat mental health, but there is still a sense that they are necessary. Powers says there is a delicate balance between maintaining a healthy skepticism about the medical industry without denying its benefits entirely. He encourages people to always think about who is profiting, whether from criminalizing marijuana or giving ritalin to four year olds. The discussion ended with the positive experiences that can come from having a controlled psychedelic experience. Some examples included helping alcohol addiction, understanding the core reasons why a marriage ended, finding peace and answers within the counterculture of the 1960s, and becoming a more compassionate person. Nicholas Powers is an Associate Professor of English at SUNY Old Westbury. Powers has presented talks and reports from the Psychedelic Renaissance since 2017. He has written for numerous psychedelic publications from Lucid News to Double Blind. Alongside published articles, he has given talks at Naropa University and Chacruna. Powers has published three books with Upset Press. The first is a book of poetry, the second a mix of reportage from disaster zones, protests, and Burning Man. The third is a political vampire novel. He regularly attends Wild Seeds Writers Retreat and Cave Canem Black poetry workshops. Powers lives in Brooklyn with his son. Did you enjoy this story?

When a tween or teen experiments with drugs or alcohol, many parents spiral into fear, shame, and self-blame — wondering Where did we go wrong? and What do we do now? In this deeply honest episode of the Mindful Mama Podcast, Hunter Clarke-Fields speaks with Brenda Zane, TEDx speaker, podcast host, and co-founder of Hopestream Community, about parenting through teen substance use — without shame, disengagement, or outdated “rock bottom” thinking. After nearly losing her son to two fentanyl overdoses in three days, Brenda brings both lived experience and evidence-based insight to this conversation. She explains why substance use is often a response to emotional pain, nervous-system overload, or unmet needs — not bad parenting — and why parents remain one of the most powerful protective factors in a child's recovery. Together, they explore how fear can push parents toward control or avoidance, what actually helps teens open up, and why mindfulness may be one of the most effective prevention tools we have. This episode offers clarity, compassion, and hope for parents who feel scared, exhausted, or alone — and a reminder that connection is never wasted. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why tweens and teens experiment with drugs or alcohol The emotional, social, and neurological risk factors parents should watch for Why you are not the cause of your child's substance use — and why that matters Common (loving) parenting patterns that shut down communication Why shame and self-blame undermine a parent's effectiveness Evidence-based approaches that work without “rock bottom” thinking How boundaries and natural consequences support growth Why science and kindness outperform disengagement How mindfulness helps parents stay regulated in terrifying moments What gives real hope — even after crisis or overdose ABOUT HUNTER CLARKE-FIELDS: Hunter Clarke-Fields is the host Mindful Parenting Podcast (Top 0.5% podcast ), global speaker, number 1 bestselling author of “Raising Good Humans” and “Raising Good Humans Every Day,” Mindfulness Meditation teacher and creator of the Mindful Parenting Course and Teacher Training.

Today's guest is a multi-Latin-Grammy-winning songwriter and producer with a wall of platinum records — and one of the few people in music willing to say the quiet part out loud. He came up as an actor and a rapper, moved to LA broke, stumbled into songwriting, and turned it into the kind of career most writers spend a lifetime chasing. He's also built one of the sharpest voices in the room as the host of his own show, Good Luck With Gino.This is one of the most honest conversations we've had about how the music business actually works in 2026 — not the clean version, the real one. Why roughly 75% of working writers now survive on K-pop. How the pitch song quietly died and took the professional songwriter down with it. Artists taking songwriting credit on songs they didn't write — and exactly how labels split the writers up to play them against each other and shave points. Gino lays out the one rule every songwriter needs before their next cut, when it's worth standing on business, and when you "roll over like a dog" because the record's too big to lose.And The Writer Is... Gino The Ghost!In this episode of And The Writer Is, we go deep on:• How he came up — actor, rapper, broke in LA, then stumbled into songwriting• Treating every podcast episode like an album of singles• Why ~75% of working writers now live off K-pop• What pitch records used to be — Clive Davis, Barry Manilow & the lost art of outside songs• The death of the professional songwriter (and why talent-show winners get nothing now)• Artists taking credit for songs they didn't write — and how to combat it• The "$15K buy-me-out" story & when to stand on business vs. roll over• The split shakedown — how labels pit writers against each other, and the rule that beats it• Why generosity makes you more money than being a prickAnd much more...

Despite his reputation as “the safe Beatle,” Paul McCartney was a badass. He took wild artistic risks, rubbed elbows with truly dangerous characters and because of his crimes, did hard time in one of the world’s most notorious prisons. His public spats with Beatles bandmate John Lennon are the stuff of legend, as is the “Paul is dead” conspiracy at the end of their time together as a band, but the truth may be even stranger.

Cody Boden grew up in Grand Junction Colorado, the son of an alcoholic father in a coal mining town. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, Cody shares how he found his purpose in the U.S. Army — becoming a sniper with the 1st 40th Cavalry, earning two Purple Hearts from a bombing and a VBIED attack, and witnessing horrors overseas that would follow him home forever. When he returned from war the military forced him into medical retirement — leaving him without the only life he'd ever known. What followed was a bar altercation, drug dealing, a 15 year sentence he served 5 years of, and a battle with opiate addiction he finally won in June 2017. Now he faces his greatest fight yet — terminal liver failure connected to an illness contracted during deployment, waiting for a donor since May 2023.This is a story of war, trauma, addiction, prison, redemption, fatherhood and faith — and a man the system tried to throw away who refused to give up. _____________________________________________ #PurpleHeart #VeteranStory #TrueCrime _____________________________________________ Connect with Cody Boden: Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@onemoremission Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cody.boden/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@UCtFo-QFNRfa-_c4uZh0WKyg Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61580807506052 Donation: livingdonorreg.upmc.com _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Purple Heart Army Sniper to Federal Prison — Cody's Full Story 00:21 Growing Up in a Coal Mining Family and the Childhood That Shaped Everything 04:13 High School Struggles and the First Time Drugs Entered His Life 07:07 The Family Coal Mining Business and How Everything Started to Change 11:28 His Father His Grandfather and the Discipline That Defined His Childhood 16:01 Losing His Grandfather and the Moment He Turned to Drugs to Cope 18:59 Joining the Army to Escape — The Decision That Changed Everything 21:31 Army Training and How He Fought His Way Through Early Addiction 28:35 Making It to Army Sniper School and What Life in Alaska Really Looked Like 37:18 Preparing for Deployment and Adapting to the Most Extreme Environments Imaginable 41:01 Life in Alaska — Brutal Weather Brutal Training and What It Built in Him 45:00 Deploying to Iraq — His First Combat Experience and What He Wasn't Ready For 51:40 The Toughest Missions and the Friends He Lost in Battle 54:00 Survivor's Guilt — What It Does to You When the People Next to You Don't Make It 01:00:43 Heavy Combat Devastating Losses and What Leadership in War Really Looks Like 01:11:04 Coming Home — Injuries Forced Retirement and the Painkillers That Started Everything 01:18:50 A Bar Fight An Arrest and His First Real Taste of Jail 01:27:49 How Addiction Took Over and What It Did to His Family 01:30:47 Fighting for Custody of His Kids While Fighting His Own Demons 01:39:10 Prison — The Legal Troubles the Politics and What Survival Really Looks Like Inside 01:46:35 Prison Life Racism and the Mental Health Programs That Started to Help 01:58:03 Therapy Childhood Trauma and the First Real Steps Toward Recovery 02:05:00 Life After Prison Meeting Katherine and Then the Hepatitis C Diagnosis 02:12:42 Building a New Life Staying Clean and Finding Professional Purpose 02:18:11 The Terminal Liver Disease Diagnosis and the Transplant Journey Nobody Prepares You For 02:26:26 Medical Hardships Finding Hope and the Faith That Kept Him Going 02:32:23 The Delays the Donors and the Nightmare of Navigating the Medical System 02:36:09 What His Family and Legacy Give Him the Will to Survive 02:43:17 Reflection Gratitude and What Moving Forward Really Looks Like _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka Learn more about your ad choices.

(WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE) Today, 98% of all federal criminal cases are resolved with a guilty plea. Why? "Half a loaf is better than none. . . . When we have a weak case for any reason, we'll reduce to almost anything rather than lose." In modern America, "beyond a reasonable doubt" as determined by a jury has largely been replaced by the discretion of prosecutors to punish defendants for exercising their constitutional right to a trial by jury. So much so, defendants in pretrial detention are agreeing to plea "bargains" at a rate so high, it's difficult to deny the obvious: Innocence is irrelevant. Reb is joined by Hannah Bogen, a Federal Public Defender in the Office of the FPD for the Central District of California, the largest public defense office in the federal system. Hannah shares her firsthand experience with indigent defense, pretrial detention, plea bargaining, and sentencing policy—a rare glimpse into the real lives of her clients in the federal criminal system, and public defenders' enduring fight for dignity and mercy for the people whom society often forgets...Until it happens to you. **DISCLAIMER: The views and opinions discussed in this episode are personal to Hannah and Reb and do not reflect the views or opinions of the Office of the Federal Public Defender.** A huge thank you to Hannah Bogen for her time and unforgettable insight for this episode, and a gracious nod to the Offices of the Federal Public Defender in Los Angeles and around the country.
