A lot of the murder cases we cover feature slow-boiling resentments, or criminal schemes hatched with an explicit target in mind. Killings by strangers are rare—and terrifying. You can just be going about your life with no idea that a predator is hunting you, a twisted mind that has no more connection to your life than a shark does. And then, out of the night, they strike. Join us for the chilling story of a would-be serial killer stopped after his first murder.Stick around after the outro for a funny blooper! Sources:Cold Storage, Don LasseterLA Times: https://www.latimes.com/socal/daily-pilot/tn-wknd-et-denise-huber-20160702-story.htmlCourt papers: https://law.justia.com/cases/california/supreme-court/2011/s064306/LA Times: https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1997-05-23-mn-61651-story.htmlFollow us, campers!Patreon (join to get all episodes ad-free, at least a day early, an extra episode a month, and a free sticker!): https://patreon.com/TrueCrimeCampfirehttps://www.truecrimecampfirepod.com/Facebook: True Crime CampfireInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/truecrimecampfire/?hl=enTwitter: @TCCampfire https://twitter.com/TCCampfireEmail: truecrimecampfirepod@gmail.comMERCH! https://true-crime-campfire.myspreadshop.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime-campfire--4251960/support.

This week on Ethical Voices, Kristin Amico, a writer, editor, content strategist, and the most traveled person I know discusses a number of important ethics issues, including: ·       Why most ethics failures don't start with scandals ·       What the "Wild West" of AI really looks like inside organizations under pressure to perform ·       How fear, job insecurity, and "do more with less" environments quietly undermine ethical decision-making ·       Why mentorship is the most effective ethics safeguard for junior staff

Get featured on the show by leaving us a Voice Mail: https://bit.ly/MIPVM  This episode explores how organisations can advance AI capability by shifting from siloed, linear thinking to ecosystem thinking. Barbara Wittmann outlines why many AI initiatives fail, how mindset transformation enables responsible adoption and where real innovation begins inside an organisation. She explains the role of the middle, why data foundations matter and how ethical leadership can guide sustainable AI-driven change. 

The Story of the Blob Tree - Ian Long Interview – Rethinking Transference in Person-Centred Therapy In Episode 360 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly take us through this week's three topics: Firstly, in ‘Ethical, Sustainable Practice', they explore rupture and repair in counselling, looking at the inevitable ruptures that can occur in the therapeutic relationship and how recognising and repairing these moments builds resilience and strengthens the therapeutic alliance. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Ian Long, illustrator and co-creator of the iconic Blob Tree, about the origins, evolution, and global impact of these powerful visual tools in therapy and education. And finally in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken rethink transference in person-centred therapy, offering insight into how these dynamics show up during training and why they matter - even outside of client work. Rupture and Repair in Counselling [starts at 03:30 mins] Rory and Ken explore rupture and repair in counselling, emphasising that relational ruptures in therapy are not failures but essential opportunities for growth, learning, and repair. Key points discussed include: Ruptures are normal in therapy and can result from misattunement, transference, or triggering of past trauma. Common signs include client withdrawal, silence, defensiveness, or abrupt subject changes. Effective repair relies on naming the shift gently and being curious about the client's inner experience. Understanding your own attachment and trauma patterns is crucial for managing ruptures. Repairing a rupture models emotional resilience and can deepen the therapeutic relationship. Supervision is essential for processing ruptures and supporting ethical, attuned practice. The Story of the Blob Tree – Ian Long Interview [starts at 23:20 mins] Rory speaks with Ian Long, the illustrator and co-creator of the Blob Tree, about how this simple yet profound tool has supported emotional expression worldwide for four decades. Key points from the interview include: The Blob Tree features a group of non-verbal, genderless characters that reflect different emotional states and interactions. Originally created for youth work, the tool has become widely used in counselling, education, and social work. It facilitates expression for those who struggle with words, including children, non-verbal individuals, and trauma survivors. The success of the tool lies not just in the illustrations but in the skill of the practitioner asking open-ended, exploratory questions. The Blob Tree and related tools are now used in over 150 countries and across various disciplines, including business and humanitarian work. Ian reflects on his creative partnership with the late Pip Wilson and the lasting legacy of their work in fostering emotional literacy. Rethinking Transference in Person-Centred Therapy [starts at 44:58 mins] Rory and Ken challenge the notion that transference has no place in person-centred practice, encouraging students to explore how it shows up in training and personal development. Key points include: Carl Rogers acknowledged transference, though he chose to respond to it rather than interpret it. Transference can occur even outside of client work - in group projects, PD groups, and skills practice. Feelings like the urge to rescue, impress, or withdraw may signal countertransference and warrant reflection. Journaling, peer reflection, and personal therapy can support deeper understanding of relational dynamics. Bringing transference into PD groups (not as blame, but as exploration) helps develop emotional awareness. Recognising these patterns early prepares students for ethical, attuned work with future clients.

What if your next vacation could transform lives—including your own? In this inspiring episode of the Leaders of Transformation podcast, host Nicole Jansen welcomes Kimberly Haley-Coleman, founder and executive director of GlobeAware - an award-winning nonprofit that has mobilized volunteers across more than 25 countries through service adventures that create lasting social impact.

From her own journey leaving the corporate world to building GlobeAware, Kimberly breaks down the power of meaningful service and the practical steps for participating in global volunteer projects. This conversation reveals why service travel isn't just about helping others - it's about developing resilience, gratitude, empathy, and a renewed appreciation for humanity.

Ethical, Community-Led Service: True impact begins with equality. Projects are designed and led by local communities, ensuring their needs and voices come first. Transformative Learning Through Experience: Side-by-side service fosters empathy, gratitude, and cultural awareness—especially powerful for families and young people. A Powerful Perspective Shift: Exposure to different ways of living reshapes views on privilege and consumption through experiential learning—not lectures. Simple, Supported Participation: Trips are tax-deductible and easy to join, with logistics like food, lodging, and bilingual coordinators fully managed. Leadership & Team Development: Corporate groups use GlobeAware experiences to build trust, resilience, gratitude, and cross-cultural leadership skills that translate back to the workplace.

Resilience Through COVID: GlobeAware survived global shutdowns by pivoting to virtual programs, adapting health protocols, and reimagining community engagement. Redefining Impact: Success isn't measured by numbers alone—but by the lasting shifts in perspective, gratitude, and connection participants experience. Joy at the Core: Beyond impact, volunteering creates enduring joy—rooted in shared humanity and the simple act of serving together.

Find full show notes and links here: https://thethirdwave.co/podcast/episode-336/?ref=278  Gio shares his journey from high-pressure entrepreneurship into a more grounded, heart-led approach to life and business. He reflects on how Elemental Rhythm emerged through years of breathwork practice, somatic exploration, and deep work with plant medicine, eventually evolving into a system that blends breath, music, movement, meditation, and guided inquiry. Together, Paul and Gio explore why accessible practices like breathwork can cultivate real agency rather than dependency, how preparation and integration shape long-term change, and what it means to take responsibility for one's own growth in both spiritual and entrepreneurial contexts. Giovanni Bartolomeo is the founder of Elemental Rhythm Breathwork, where he shares breathwork resources and trains others to facilitate breathwork-based transformational coaching. A lifelong entrepreneur, Gio's own journey through self-discovery led him to create a grounded, embodied approach to personal and professional transformation. Today, he teaches workshops, trainings, and retreats internationally.

The Nuggets lost to the Orlando Magic and it was a reflection of the amount of injuries affecting their second unit. Also Jeff talks about the term "ethical" basketball and how that is just a reflection of people wanting more defense to be allowable in the NBA. Enjoy the show!

THE Q SOURCE AND MARY'S TEACHINGS Colleague James Tabor. Tabor identifies the "Q" source as a collection of ethical teachings shared by Matthew and Luke. He attributes these core values—such as charity and humility—to a family tradition taught by Mary to Jesus, James, and John the Baptizer, aiming to restore Mary'shistorical influence as a teacher.

Here is the slide deck. Here are the top 5 takeaways:* The Traditional Billable Hour Model Is Becoming Obsolete. AI automation is eliminating a significant portion of billable legal work—up to 75% for firms in the near future. This makes the traditional hourly billing model unsustainable, as tasks that once took hours can now be completed in minutes.* A Massive Latent Legal Market Exists. There is a huge, underserved market for legal services—estimated at $1.3 trillion in the U.S.—comprised of people and businesses who need legal help but are not currently served by lawyers, often due to lack of pricing transparency and affordability.* Subscription Models Offer Predictable Revenue and Better Access. Switching to a subscription-based legal service model provides clients with pricing certainty and allows lawyers to build sustainable practices with predictable revenue, improved client relationships, and better staff retention.* AI Should Be Used Thoughtfully and with the Right Tools. Lawyers should use multiple, purpose-built AI tools (not just general ones like ChatGPT) and always verify AI outputs with source documents. Retrieval-augmented generation and tools that provide citations are especially valuable for legal work.* Ethical and Professional Obligations Favor Efficiency and Transparency. Continuing to bill by the hour without leveraging AI may violate professional conduct rules against wasteful procedures. Embracing AI and subscription models aligns lawyer incentives with client needs and supports access to justice.__________________________Sign up for Paxton, my all-in-one AI legal assistant, helping me with legal research, analysis, drafting, and enhancing existing legal work product.Get Connected with SixFifty⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, a business and employment legal document automation tool.Sign up for ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Gavel⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, an automation platform for law firms.Visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Law Subscribed⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to subscribe to the weekly newsletter to listen from your web browser.Prefer monthly updates?

If you've been hearing more about psychedelic therapy and wondering whether it's a genuine breakthrough for healing—or just the latest mental health trend—you're not alone. Many people feel curious, hopeful, and skeptical all at once. This conversation is meant to help you slow down, understand what the research actually shows, and think clearly about whether this path is right for you. In this episode of Love, Happiness and Success, I'm joined by psychiatrist and MDMA-assisted psychotherapist Dr. Scott Shannon, founder of Wholeness Center, the largest integrative mental health center in the U.S. Together, we talk about how psychedelic therapy works differently from conventional psychiatric treatment, why it can help disrupt rigid trauma patterns in the brain, and what researchers are learning about long-term healing—not just short-term symptom relief. We also spend time on the parts of this conversation that matter just as much: the risks, the ethical boundaries, and the importance of preparation, professional support, and integration. Psychedelic therapy isn't appropriate for everyone, and it isn't something to pursue casually or without careful guidance. This episode offers a grounded, responsible look at how people can think critically about safety, readiness, and what to look for in a qualified provider. As you listen, I invite you to reflect on a few questions: What kind of healing are you actually looking for? What does feeling “better” really mean to you? And how do you decide which growth paths deserve your trust, time, and care? Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Psychedelic therapy explained: promise, research, and real risks 02:31 Why psychedelic therapy differs from traditional psychiatric medication 04:55 Trauma, brain patterns, and how psychedelic therapy disrupts stuck loops 07:00 MDMA-assisted therapy for PTSD and why healing can continue long after treatment 12:21 A paradigm shift in mental health: supporting the brain's capacity to heal 19:30 What MDMA actually does in therapy: safety, self-compassion, and trauma processing 25:47 Mystical experience, meaning, and the spiritual dimension of psychedelic therapy 30:09 Ethical concerns, safety risks, and how to evaluate psychedelic therapy providers 38:00 Preparation and integration: why psychedelic therapy is more than the experience itself If this conversation leaves you thinking about your own healing or growth, I want to be clear that Growing Self does not offer psychedelic therapy. What we do offer is thoughtful, evidence-based therapy and coaching for people who want to grow with intention and care. If you'd like, I'd love to help you think through what kind of support would actually be most helpful for you. I've created a simple, private way to do that. By answering just a few quick questions, we can help match you with the right therapist or coach for a complimentary consultation—someone who understands what you're navigating and where you'd like to go next. Schedule a free consultation today. Consider it a small gift from me, and a gentle next step if you're ready for one. xoxo, Dr. Lisa Marie BobbyGrowing Self

We're revisiting our chat with Phil Agnew, creator of the Nudge podcast, to explore how behavioral science shows up in everyday marketing. From pricing to persuasion, Phil shares examples and tactics that continue to resonate.

How This Is Building Me, hosted by world-renowned oncologist D. Ross Camidge, MD, PhD, is a podcast focused on the highs and lows, ups and downs of all those involved with cancer, cancer medicine, and cancer science across the full spectrum of life's experiences. In this episode, Dr Camidge sat down with Tom Fleming, PhD, a professor of biostatistics at the University of Washington School of Public Health in Seattle. Drs Camidge and Fleming discussed how Fleming's interest in biostatistics led to a multifaceted career in clinical trial design and analysis. Fleming pursued a PhD in math and statistics and spent his early career learning to bridge quantitative sciences with clinical medicine, working on landmark trials for adjuvant colon cancer and debunking megadoses of Vitamin C as a cancer treatment. A primary focus of Fleming's career was pioneering the use of Data Monitoring Committees (DMCs) in oncology research to safeguard patient interests and trial integrity, later convincing organizations like SWOG to adopt DMCs to prevent premature data releases and biases. He also co-developed the O'Brien-Fleming monitoring boundary, a statistical framework that allows trials to stop early for efficacy only when the signal is undeniably compelling, thereby protecting scientific rigor. After moving to the University of Washington, Fleming expanded his focus into infectious diseases. He led international efforts that revolutionized HIV/AIDS prevention, including demonstrating a reduction in heterosexual transmission of the disease through antiretrovirals and significantly reducing mother-to-child transmission in resource-limited settings. Fleming remains a staunch advocate for confirmatory trials and the use of overall survival as the "gold standard" end point, often expressing skepticism toward surrogate biomarkers like progression-free survival. In the episode, he emphasized that rigorous science is possible even in the most challenging environments, provided there is a commitment to clinical equipoise and high patient retention. Outside of his professional life, Fleming prioritizes family and coaches youth soccer teams, reflecting his belief in the power of collaboration.

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we delve into the significant events of 2025, a year marked by pivotal scientific breakthroughs, regulatory changes, and industry trends that have reshaped drug development and patient care.One of the standout advancements was Novo Nordisk gaining FDA approval for an oral version of Wegovy, a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist for obesity management. This marks a notable shift in treatment accessibility, as it provides an easier alternative to injectables for those managing weight and cardiovascular risks. This development could significantly enhance patient adherence and broaden access to this critical therapy.However, not all news was positive. Pfizer faced a challenging situation when a patient death occurred in the extension of their Hympavzi hemophilia study. Such incidents highlight the intrinsic risks of clinical trials, especially within gene therapy realms where safety monitoring is paramount. These events remind us of the delicate balance between innovation and patient safety in advanced biologic therapies.In legal news, Johnson & Johnson was ordered by a Baltimore jury to pay $1.56 billion in a talc-related cancer case. This ruling underscores heightened scrutiny on product safety and consumer protection within the pharmaceutical industry, potentially influencing future litigation and regulatory measures.Clinical trial outcomes also presented mixed results. Neurocrine Biosciences' Ingrezza did not meet efficacy endpoints in its phase 3 trial for cerebral palsy-related dyskinesia. Although it is approved for other movement disorders, this setback reflects the complexities involved in expanding drug indications. Such challenges highlight ongoing hurdles in translating preclinical successes into clinical realities.Despite geopolitical tensions, particularly between China and the U.S., Chinese biotech firms thrived, maintaining robust deal activity. China's continued growth as an innovation hub is driven by strategic investments and collaborations that bolster global drug development efforts, underscoring its increasing influence in life sciences.Regulatory landscapes also shifted with proposals from the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Innovation to align U.S. drug prices with international rates under Medicare Parts B and D. These proposed models could significantly impact pricing strategies and market dynamics within the U.S., requiring pharmaceutical companies to adapt while ensuring equitable access to medications.Ethical challenges surfaced as six individuals were charged with insider trading involving biotech stocks. Such incidents highlight the necessity for stringent ethical standards and regulatory oversight to maintain investor confidence and market integrity.Meanwhile, AstraZeneca's extended partnership with Niowave for actinium-225 supply reflects an interest in radiopharmaceuticals as targeted cancer therapies. This collaboration highlights the potential of radiopharmaceuticals in oncology, opening promising avenues for precision medicine approaches.As 2025 closes, it's clear that this year has been one of both triumphs and trials for the pharmaceutical and biotech industries. Scientific innovations like Novo Nordisk's oral GLP-1 receptor agonist offer new hope for patients, yet challenges such as clinical trial setbacks and legal battles indicate ongoing hurdles in drug development and commercialization. These developments will likely influence industry strategies and regulatory policies as we advance into 2026.The sustained momentum of China's biotech industry amid global trade tensions remains notable. This trend reflects China's strategic investments in biotech capabilities and its growing role in global markets despite geopolitical frictions.In clinical research, Hope BioscienceSupport the show

When her husband was diagnosed with a terminal brain tumor while she was pregnant with their first child, Andrea Nakayama's career took a hard left turn. Since then, she founded the Functional Nutrition Alliance and has spent the last 20 years helping practitioners and patients learn about a holistic approach to health. In this episode, you'll hear about the importance of both traditional medicine AND functional medicine—and why the term "functional medicine" has been exploited to encourage overconsumption. Together, we explore the state of chronic illness in the U.S., why quick fixes and wellness trends are so seductive, and how the wellness industry often adds more noise than clarity. This conversation is an invitation to declutter our health routines, tune back into our own bodies, and make more intentional, grounded choices—without fear, blame, or overwhelm.

For the 238th episode of Private Parts Unknown, host Courtney Kocak welcomes adoptive mother and writer Marjie Alonso. In this interview, Marjie unpacks what ethical adoption actually looks like—and why the familiar “better life” narrative so often obscures power imbalances, secrecy, and profound loss. Drawing from her experience adopting two sons from Paraguay and later taking them back to meet their birth mothers, she explains the concept of the primal wound, how adoption can impact adoptees (and everyone involved) across a lifetime, and why infertility or loss is not, on its own, a reason to adopt. We dig into the hidden economics of adoption, the business of family-making, and how a system built around demand can slide into coercion and trafficking. Marjie also speaks candidly about reckoning with her own choices, what she wishes she had understood earlier, and why flipping the script—from “adults who want children” to “children who need families”—is essential to imagining a more ethical future for adoption.

One of the biggest reasons intuitive practitioners hesitate to trust themselves isn't doubt — it's integrity. In this episode of Your Yes Filled Life, I break down the ethical difference between intuition and projection, and why learning to discern the two is essential once you're already working with clients. Projection is common in early and intermediate intuitive work — not because you're unskilled, but because intuition often develops faster than structure. Left unexamined, it can lead to overstepping, emotional charge, and confusion in sessions. We talk about how projection actually shows up, why certainty and urgency are red flags, and how somatic literacy is the key to clean, ethical intuitive work. This episode is for practitioners who know their intuition is real — and want to refine how they use it. In this episode: Intuition vs. projection — how to tell the difference Why emotional charge isn't intuitive clarity How somatic tracking prevents over-interpretation Common projection patterns in Reiki, mediumship, and coaching Ethical language that protects both you and your clients Go deeper ✨ Intuitive Somatic Healer Certification A 6-week advanced training for practitioners who want more precision, ethical clarity, and confidence in client work.

Collecting and Using Data Ethically to Create Customer Delight  Shep interviews Phyllis Fang, Head of Marketing at Transcend. She talks about the importance of personalization and how companies can ethically collect, unify, and use customer data to create seamless, trust-building interactions.  This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more:    How can companies ethically collect and use customer data without crossing privacy boundaries?  Why is transparency important when asking customers for permission to use their data?  How can brands strike the right balance between personalization and avoiding being perceived as intrusive or "creepy"?  What are the best practices for building trust with customers through data collection and usage?  How does unified customer identity across digital and real-world touchpoints improve the overall customer journey?  Top Takeaways:    Customers are willing to share information, but only if they get something valuable in return. When a company uses customer preferences to recommend something relevant at the right time, customers are more willing to engage. On the other hand, when the connection feels forced or overwhelming, it can make customers stop buying and look for other companies that will respect their trust.  Customers feel better when companies are upfront about what data they're collecting and how it will be used. When a brand is transparent with why they need information and asks for permission, customers feel respected and safe. Giving customers options about how their data is used makes them more likely to share details.  Businesses should focus on getting only getting the information they need to start doing business with a customer. Then, gradually over time, the business can learn more.   Ethical use of data builds trust. Just because a business can use a customer's data does not mean it always should. It's important for companies to explain how they use customer information, and to give customers choices. When customers know what's happening and have control, they are more likely to trust a brand with their information and their business.  Some customers want weekly emails or product updates, while others just want order confirmations or receipts. Give your customers a way to choose the kind of information they receive and how often they want it, and make setting this up easy.  Better business practices lead to loyal customers. When companies focus on giving people what they want, respecting their choices, and treating data carefully, customers become fans who keep coming back.  Personalization isn't just about online shopping. It can happen in real life too. Imagine walking into a store and the salesperson remembers what you like, what you bought before, and even your favorite colors. This shows how connecting customer history, identity, and preferences creates a great experience both digitally and face-to-face.   Plus, Shep and Phyllis discuss the importance of making sure customers understand what they are saying yes to, such as cookie banners and opt-in forms. Tune in!  Quote:   “When customers share information, they often want control over how and where it's used. A company needs to respect those preferences and enforce them consistently.”  About:    Phyllis Fang is the Head of Marketing at Transcend, where she helps brands grow through customer trust, personalization, and digital transformation. Before working at Transcend, she drove key product marketing initiatives at Uber and has a strong background in e-commerce and digital marketing.    Shep Hyken is a customer service and experience expert, New York Times bestselling author, award-winning keynote speaker, and host of Amazing Business Radio.   Learn more about your ad choices.

The story of Bluebeard has a mostly happy ending, with the killer's newest bride being rescued in the nick of time by her brothers. Good for her, less good for his previous wives, who she'd discovered hanging on hooks from the walls of a bloody closet. There are countless real-life stories of spouses being killed for money, with no muscular siblings breaking down the door with swords in hand. It's much rarer for a killer to make victims of multiple spouses, but the central character in this week's story had the spirit of Bluebeard in his heart, a man who would try to make a career from killing his wives for profit.Sources: Fatal Charm, Carlton SmithA Rose For Her Grave, Ann Rulehttps://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/law-justice/shes-got-her-name-back-teenager-murdered-in-1977-finally-identified-with-new-dna-technique-and-genetic-genealogy/Follow us, campers!Patreon (join to get all episodes ad-free, at least a day early, an extra episode a month, and a free sticker!): https://patreon.com/TrueCrimeCampfirehttps://www.truecrimecampfirepod.com/Facebook: True Crime CampfireInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/truecrimecampfire/?hl=enTwitter: @TCCampfire https://twitter.com/TCCampfireEmail: truecrimecampfirepod@gmail.comMERCH! https://true-crime-campfire.myspreadshop.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime-campfire--4251960/support.

Bureaucracy kills more transplant patients than shortage does. Jessica Wynn harvests the truth about organ donation's dark side here on Skeptical Sunday! Welcome to Skeptical Sunday, a special edition of The Jordan Harbinger Show where Jordan and a guest break down a topic that you may have never thought about, open things up, and debunk common misconceptions. This time around, we're joined by writer and researcher Jessica Wynn!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1253On This Week's Skeptical Sunday:Over 100,000 Americans wait for organs while 13 die daily — not from organ shortage, but from systemic inefficiency, poor matching protocols, and bureaucratic bottlenecks that waste thousands of usable organs annually.Living donation is safer than most realize. Donors can give kidneys, liver portions, even lungs while alive and generally recover well, but workplace protections vary wildly by state, creating real financial and career risks for altruistic donors.The organ matching system is a bureaucratic labyrinth. HRSA, OPTN, UNOS, CMS, and CDC all overlap in managing transplants, creating inefficiencies that prevent organs from reaching recipients in time despite available technology.Ethical nightmares haunt the system. Scandals include surgeons nearly harvesting from living patients, global black markets exploiting the poor, and allegations of forced organ harvesting from prisoners in countries like China without consent.Register as a donor and advocate for reform. One donor saves up to eight lives and helps 75+ through tissue donation. Push for automated referrals, airline transport mandates, and better tracking tech to transform a broken but lifesaving system.Connect with Jordan on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube.
