A study published in Nature Communications, published Feb 19, 2026, found that “pregnancy physically alters a woman's brain, with a second pregnancy bringing even more profound effects.” The researchers “performed brain scans on 110 women. Some were first-time mothers, others second-time moms, and some nulliparous women. Results showed that during a first pregnancy, the greatest changes occur in the structure and activity of the ‘default mode network' – the brain system responsible for self-reflection and mind wandering. Are these changes bad? Are they associated with long term hard? Are they adaptive? It's a complex question, with real answers. Listen in for details.1.

In this episode, we welcome Professor Andrew Lang (University of Edinburgh), a leading critical voice in international economic law and global political economy. Andrew's work poses a deceptively simple but analytically demanding question: how do law and expertise make global markets possible, and what forms of power and inequality are sedimented within everyday technical decisions? Drawing on his influential scholarship on “global ungovernance” (co-authored with Deval Desai), the conversation examines how contemporary global governance operates through a conjunction of institution-building and managed instability. This is a mode of rule that incorporates critique, problematises its own foundations and keeps central objectives such as the “rule of law” or “sustainability” structurally open to revision. The discussion begins with Andrew's formative engagement with the global justice movements of the early 2000s, and the enduring normative orientation they provided for his scholarship. We then turn to a core intervention in his work: the most consequential forms of expertise are often those that present themselves as technical and apolitical. These modes shape problem definitions, delineate what can be known or measured and determine whose knowledge carries authority within global governance. Joined by student questions, the conversation moves from the “impossibility of closure” to the implications of accountability, agency and ethical responsibility. We explore crisis as a governing strategy, alongside contemporary invocations of “polycrisis” and resilience. Particular attention is paid to technical domains, from carbon accounting standards to supply-chain sustainability metrics, which emerge not as peripheral details but as constitutive elements of the global political economy. The episode closes with a reflection on an unsettled moment in global order, one in which inherited assumptions have eroded, ethical questions can no longer be deferred and a new generation of scholars and practitioners must reconsider what it means to exercise international expertise. Andrew Lang is Professor of International Law and Global Governance at the University of Edinburgh. His research spans international economic law, global political economy and the politics of expertise, with particular emphasis on how legal and technical practices constitute markets and organise global economic life.

Michelle Chew is a Professor of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine at Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden, and editor for the British Journal of Anaesthesia. Hear her sharing her Perioperative Profile on TopMedTalk with Andy Cumpstey. After initial anaesthesia training in Denmark, she moved to Lund University, Sweden, combining clinical work and research, later establishing her own experimental haemodynamics group studying septic and haemorrhagic shock and myocardial changes. She balances academic and family life by prioritizing rather than seeking "life balance," noting challenges for women in academia despite Scandinavian support. She explains journal editing—from rapid assessment, literature checks, peer review coordination, to feedback synthesis—and entered the field via the European Journal of Anaesthesiology, later serving at BJA and other journals. She also describes developing clinical guidelines, emphasizing expert panels, systematic reviews, consensus, and local adaptation, with involvement in Scandinavian and European anesthesia societies. Throughout, she highlights lessons from mentors and family, especially her grandmother, stresses taking opportunities and putting in the work, and emphasizes that science and clinical medicine ultimately serve patients. -- Join us at Evidence Based Perioperative Medicine (EBPOM) World Congress 2026 in London.

Vegan essen – gesund trainieren – und trotzdem „Zahnprobleme“? In dieser Episode schauen wir evidenzbasiert auf Fluorid, vegane Ernährungsgewohnheiten und die besonderen Belastungen im Sport: Sports Drinks, Smoothies, Mundtrockenheit und häufige Kohlenhydratzufuhr. Du bekommst ein klares Modell, wie Karies und Erosion entstehen, welche Befunde Studien bei Veganer:innen und Athlet:innen zeigen und welche Präventionsmaßnahmen in der Praxis funktionieren. Korrektur: Im Podcast spricht Dominik von einer Dentalfluorose, die er entwickelt habe durch Fluorid. Dies ist jedoch im Erwachsenenalter nicht mehr möglich. Wahrscheinlicher sind Verfärbungen der Zähne, durch im Tee enthaltene Tannine. Dennoch enthält Tee mitunter große Mengen Fluorid. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dominiks Buch zur pflanzenbasierten Sporternährung im UTB-Verlag: https://www.utb.de/doi/book/10.36198/9783838560328 Dominiks Gesundheitscommunity: www.gsundes-hannover.de Dominiks Online-Knie-Kurs: https://gsundes-hannover.de/knieschmerzen/ Dominiks Online-Rücken-Kurs: https://copecart.com/products/34bd5abb/checkout Marcs veganes Online-Fitness-Coaching: https://vegainer-academy.com/ Marcs Online-Kurs: https://www.copecart.com/products/a50f88f2/checkout ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dieser Podcast wird unterstützt von der Firma Watson Nutrition.

Is fasting really the best way to lose fat — or is there a smarter, more strategic approach? In this masterclass episode, Vanessa introduces a powerful new concept: Protein Fasting — a structured approach using PSMF (Protein-Sparing Modified Fast) days to optimize fat loss, suppress appetite naturally, protect muscle, and potentially tap into fasting-like cellular signaling.
Camminare, salire le scale, alzarsi da una sedia: sono gesti quotidiani che raccontano la reale qualità della vita di chi convive con l'artrosi. Uno studio pubblicato sull'European Journal of Applied Physiology, condotto su oltre 38mila adulti in 28 Paesi europei, evidenzia come la capacità funzionale sia un indicatore chiave dell'impatto della malattia. Qual è oggi il peso dell'artrosi sull'autonomia? E cosa possiamo fare per preservare movimento e indipendenza? Ne parliamo a Obiettivo Salute con il professor Carlo Selmi, responsabile dell'Unità operativa di reumatologia e immunologia clinica dell'Humanitas e docente dell'Humanitas University.
Wir springen ins 11. Jahrhundert, und sprechen über ein Schwert. Ein Schwert, das nach hunderten Jahren aus dem Fluss Witham in England gefischt wurde, über das wir aber eigentlich sehr wenig wissen. Wir versuchen sein mögliches Leben nachzuzeichnen, und sprechen dabei über Stahl aus Afghanistan, Schwertschmieden im Rheinland und die Bedeutung, die ein Schwert ganz abseits vom Schlachtfeld hatte. //Erwähnte Folgen - GAG158: Al-Biruni und die erste Globalgeschichte – https://gadg.fm/158 - GAG191: Aethelfled - Warrior Queen of Mercia – https://gadg.fm/191 - GAG414: Ibn Fadlān und die Reise zur Wolga – https://gadg.fm/414 - GAG519: Die Warägergarde – https://gadg.fm/519 Literatur - Androshchuk, Fedir.

HEALTH NEWS A Simple Diet Change Could Slow Liver Cancer Brief, intensive exercise helps patients with panic disorder more than standard care Lucid dreaming could be used for mental health therapy, new study says US cancer institute studying ivermectin's ‘ability to kill cancer cells Too many saturated fats may be more harmful than too many refined carbohydrates. Clips Andrew Bridgen - https://x.com/ABridgen/status/2020573528571977993?s=20 MAHA Alliance Mike Tyson Super Bowl Commercial - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jg1SjFt1a_U KETO DIET RISKS The rationale for Keto Diet by its advocates Restricting carbohydrates, suppressing insulin and ketosis will lead to better metabolic heath, increase weight loss, reduce inflammation, and protect from chronic diseases. Keto Claim: Carbohydrates raise insulin leading to fat storage – keto lowers insulin and burns body fat better Debunking: Ketosis is a metabolic state and not a health outcome. For example ketones can be elevated by very long fasting, starvation, different illnesses and uncontrolled diabetes. Keto Claim: By minimizing carbs keto stabilizes blood sugar, reduce insulin spikes, and improve insulin sensitivity that benefits those with type 2 diabetes Debunked: This claim contradicts the evidence of induced hepatic insulin resistance and glucose intolerance in longer-term studies. In animal models, keto diets impair blood sugar regulation within several days, which shows harm for metabolic health. Keto Claim: Ketones are seen as “clean” fuel that advocates claim are anti inflammatory and neuroprotective. Believe that this along with ketosis lowers triglycerides, raises HDL cholesterol, and improves lipid profiles. They argue that the increase in LDL cholesterol is benign. Claim saturated fats are harmless if carbs are low Debunked: This claim is undermined by the increased LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and cardiovascular risks from saturated fats in animal products. Meta-analyses show no long-term lipid improvements from keto diets. Rather this is the risk in elevated low-density lipoprotein and very-low-density lipoproteins that increase cardiovascular disease Also, insulin reduction does not override the quality of fat. LDL cholesterol and ApoB, as well as atherosclerosis, increase significantly on an animal based diet. Saturated fat still remains a causal factor for cardiovascular disease. Keto Claim: High protein and fat increases satiety and therefore reduces hunger Debunking: Weight loss is primarily from reduced intake due to satiety, not fat-burning efficiency. Long-term keto adherence often leads to weight regain with no significant sustained benefits for visceral fat or appetite control. hort term weight loss is not same as long term benefits. A study shows that weight loss at 3-6 months on a keto diet disappears by 12 months Keto Claim: It enhances brain function and energy that then improves mental clarity and mood. Argue that animal products like eggs and organ meats provides choline and other nutrients for brain health. Debunked: There is no strong evidence for this claim. In fact keto's nutrient deficiencies and lack of fiber in the long term can lead to fatigue, constipation and in women neural tubal defects. Keto's claims are only based on short term trials. Keto Claim: Use the evolutionary argument that humans evolved eating meat and fat – same argument the paleo folks used. Therefore, they believe keto diets align with human biology Debunked: A big study in Science in 2025 analyzed tooth enamel from skeletons of some of our oldest human ancestors, 3.5 million years ago, and found they ate predominately a plant based diet with no substantial sigh of mammalian meat. The isotopes matched herbivores (fruits, leaves and grasses, tubers, nuts, other vegetation) not carnivores. Keto Diet Risks It is worth noting, according to the Northwestern University Health site, there is a sizable drop out rate of participants in keto trials. Although, there are studies that show keto does what it claims in the short term, there are no long-term human data to support their claims that an animal-based diet does this efficiently. Important, research leans in the direction to indicate that keto's benefits – especially weight loss and glucose reduction, are transient and may not be directly related to animal food consumption itself but rather to calorie reduction and limiting glycogen. Long term prospective studies and systematic meta analysis evaluations consistently show high red meat consumption, full-fat dairy and animal fats are associated with the following medical conditions. This is true even when carbohydrate intake is low A good thorough study in JAMA shows that unprocessed red meat mildly increases all cause mortality – about 3-5% per 100 grams meat per day High red and processed meat consumption increases carcinogenic N-nitroso compounds and heterocyclic amines that raise cancer risks by up to 18% per 50-100 grams/day – from meta analysis in the European Journal of Epidemiology Dairy increases IGF-1 levels thereby too much calcium also suppressing Vitamin D and elevating prostate cancer risks by 79% per 400 gram dairy per day. Worse for processed meats that inreases risk by 21% per 20 grams/day – American Journal of Epidemiology Red meat is linked to hormonal disruptions and carcinogens contributing breast cancer – European Journal of Cancer Total unprocessed red meat consumption shows a modest 5% risk in pancreatic cancer per 100 grams/day. – From journal Clinical Nutrition Many meta-analyses on meats have a relationship to stomach/gastric cancer, but processed meats are worse than unprocessed red meat. From study in Nutrients – 24 studies showed unprocessed red meat associated with gastric cancer by about 25% increase risk for every 100 grams/day. Unprocessed red meat is linked to an 11% higher risk in overall cardiovascular disease risk due to inflammation and endothelial dysfunction. – from European Heart Journal Saturated fats in meats increases non-HDL cholesterol and blood pressure and raises the risks of ischemic heart disease by 119% per 100 grams/day red meat – from American J Clinical Nutrition Red meat diets reduce LDL Cholesterol much less than plant proteins and thereby increase atherosclerosis risks – from the journal Circulation Red meats (an processed meats also in this study) contributes to insulin resistance via heme iron and raises Type 2 diabetes risks by up to 51% per 50 grams/day – International Journal Environmental Research in Public Health Saturated fats in unprocessed red meat has a modest positive 12% increase with stroke risk – From European Heart Journal Unprocessed poultry consumption shows a modest 4% increase in incident cardiovascular events per 100 grams/day. This is believed to be due to arachidonic acid poultry – in JAMA Red meat contributes to sodium and saturated fat intact raising hypertension conditions by 14% per 50-100 gram/day – from journal Advanced Nutrition Saturated fats from animal products cause lipotoxicity and insulin resistance, that promotes hepatic fat accumulation leading to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease – from Cardiovascular Development and Disease High animal protein increases urinary calcium and acid overload leading to the formation of kidney stones – from the journal Nutrient Animal-heavy diets have low fiber and micronutrient intake that contribute to nutrient deficiencies. Also causes constipation that can lead to immune system issues. – from the journal Nutrients Red meat, dairy, and eggs disrupts the gut metabolism of carnitine and choline. This promotes TMAO plaque formation and inflammation that leads to atherosclerosis. – from Journal of Cardiovascular Development. Although unprocessed meat consumption has not been adequately associated with dementia and Alzheimer's – yes, processed meats do – there are studies showing red meat is associated with “subjective cognitive decline” (SCD) which is related to precursors to dementia and Alzheimer's. A study in journal Neurology links unprocessed red meat eaten at 1 or more servings per day to 16% higher risk in SCD. High caloric density from saturated animal fats displaces fiber that contributes to weight gain obesity. From Neal Barnard in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition Animal products transmit prions that are associated with neurodegenerative disorders. Proinflammatory compounds like TMAO are linked to neurological risks. – in International Journal of Molecular Science
Send a textIn this episode of Journal Club, Ben and Daphna review a non-inferiority trial from the European Journal of Pediatrics exploring surfactant administration thresholds in preterm neonates. The study, conducted in India, compares a 30% versus 40% FiO2 threshold for babies 26-32 weeks gestational age. The hosts break down the counterintuitive findings regarding respiratory support duration in younger subgroups and discuss the broader implications of using rigid FiO2 heuristics versus individualized patient assessment. They also debate how resource availability influences clinical protocols and the potential benefits of "LISA" (Less Invasive Surfactant Administration) for avoiding intubation.----Higher (40%) versus lower (30%) FiO2 threshold for surfactant administration in preterm neonates between 26 and 32 weeks of gestational age: a non-inferiority randomized controlled trial.

On Trump & radical right ideology. Jean-François Drolet, a leading researcher into the 'World of the Right', talks to Alex and Lee about Donald Trump's coveting of Greenland, and puts the move into its ideological context. What is the paleoconservative worldview, how is it different from the neoconservative one, and which is more influential in the Trump regime? How does paleoconservatism translate into actual foreign policy? What's in Trump's new National Security Strategy? Are we back to a 19th century-style 'spheres of influence' arrangement? Does the radical right's foreign policy lead back to a populist kind of isolationism – or to a 'civilisational nationalism'? Will Trump solidify the transatlantic alliance, or generate a rift?

Notes:Dr Bekkers describes his academic pathway from psychology to criminology and explains why his research focus has consistently been on offenders and their behaviour rather than on offences or technologies.Cybercrime offenders are often portrayed as a homogeneous group of highly skilled hackers, but research shows they are a heterogeneous population with distinct motivations, skills, and pathways into crime.A key distinction can be made between financially motivated cybercrime, such as online fraud, and more technically complex cyber-dependent crimes such as hacking, DDoS attacks, and website defacement.Financially motivated cybercrime offenders often resemble traditional offline offenders and may commit both online and offline crimes, with similar risk factors, peer influences, and personality profiles.Technically skilled cyber offenders tend to show different characteristics, including higher levels of self-control and intrinsic motivations such as curiosity, challenge, and skill development.Research suggests that traditional criminological theories still help explain some forms of cybercrime, particularly financially motivated offences, while other forms require additional or adapted theoretical approaches.Gaming environments may act as pathways into certain forms of cybercrime by facilitating skill development, exposure to deviant peers, and access to illicit online forums, though gaming may also be protective in some contexts.Parental supervision and open communication may play a role in shaping online behaviour, similar to the role of guardianship and social control in offline offending.Law enforcement responses differ depending on the type of cybercrime, with financially motivated offences often handled by local police and more technical crimes investigated by specialized units.Dr Bekkers highlights the need for longitudinal research and greater engagement with offenders to better understand pathways into cybercrime and to inform prevention and intervention strategies.About our guest:Dr Luuk Bekkershttps://www.thuas.com/research/research-groups/team-cybercrime-cybersecurityhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/luuk-bekkers-79621b162/Papers or resources mentioned in this episode:Bekkers, L.

Recorded January 23, 2026 In this episode, the panel looks into the growing disconnect between AI hype and the realities of higher-ed operations. As campuses spin up task forces and strategy decks, the people closest to the work are still trying to explain that real progress comes from solid processes, clean data, and systems that actually integrate, not shiny tools bolted on top of chaos. The conversation drifts (on purpose) through buzzwords, half-baked pilots, and the familiar frustration of being asked to support technologies that skipped the fundamentals. Along the way, the panel brings a healthy mix of skepticism, humor, and hard-earned experience from living at the intersection of AV, IT, and reality. It's part therapy session, part reality check, and part drive-time radio nonsense. If you're sitting on an AI committee, dodging hype cycles, or just trying to keep classrooms running while everything gets labeled "AI-powered," this one will hit close to home.

Cold plunges are everywhere, and the way people talk about them, you'd think they're a miracle cure for your brain, body, and soul. But in an age of algorithm-fueled evangelism, when a ritual becomes this ubiquitous and loud, we have to ask: how much of the buzz is backed by science… and how much is just marketing? In this episode, we explore the neuroscience of cold exposure: what's real, what's overstated, and why this "discomfort" has become a billion-dollar industry. We discuss: Why cold plunges went viral, and how wellness movements often devolve into identity-driven cultures The difference between cold exposure itself and the monetized "cold plunge movement" What constitutes a "cult" (and how pseudoscience forms around partial truths) The real physiological cold shock response Why the mental "high" after a plunge doesn't automatically equal long-term brain benefit The cardiovascular risks that rarely get discussed, especially for people with underlying heart disease What the research suggests about soreness, pain reduction, and muscle growth (including why cold immersion can blunt hypertrophy) The real story behind brown fat Who should avoid cold plunges altogether (asthma, arrhythmias, coronary disease, vascular conditions) Joining us for this conversation is investigative journalist and bestselling author Scott Carney (What Doesn't Kill Us, The Wedge), who has spent years inside the cold exposure world, first as a skeptic, then as a believer, and eventually as a critic of the culture that formed around it. His work reveals what happens when discomfort becomes identity, and when unfounded "social media science" outruns real science.

Send us a textIn this episode of Journal Club, Ben and Daphna dive into a multicenter retrospective study from the European Journal of Pediatrics questioning the necessity of universal empiric antibiotics in neonates undergoing therapeutic hypothermia for HIE. Comparing Italian and Belgian cohorts, the team discusses the reality of a 111 Number Needed to Treat (NNT) for a single case of culture-proven sepsis. From the diagnostic challenges of overlapping clinical markers to the fascinating "asymptote" of postnatal leukocyte trends, we explore whether it's time to shift from routine to selective antibiotic use in our most complex patients.----Antibiotic use in neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy undergoing therapeutic hypothermia: time to rethink universal empirical treatment.

Are you exhausted all the time? In this solo episode, Darin breaks down why so many people feel chronically exhausted despite eating clean, exercising, and "doing everything right." He explains how modern life disrupts mitochondrial function, circadian rhythm, stress signaling, and nutrient availability, and why fatigue is not a personal failure, but a biological signal. This episode offers a grounded, practical roadmap to restoring energy by realigning your environment, habits, and daily rhythms with how the body is actually designed to function. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why chronic fatigue is exploding—even among healthy, active people How mitochondria do far more than "make energy" The role of circadian rhythm, light exposure, and timing in energy production Why stress, overtraining, and modern lifestyles drain cellular energy How emotional suppression and unexpressed stress affect vitality The difference between forcing energy and allowing energy Simple daily practices that support mitochondrial repair How breathwork, stillness, and social connection restore resilience Why nutrition alone isn't enough without rhythm and recovery How to realign your biology with the modern world Timecodes 00:00:00 – Welcome to SuperLife and the intention behind this episode 00:00:32 – Sponsor: TheraSage and natural frequency-based healing 00:02:10 – Happy New Year + why this conversation matters now 00:02:37 – Are you exhausted even though you're "doing everything right"? 00:03:26 – The modern energy crisis and rising chronic fatigue 00:04:12 – Why surface-level health advice no longer works 00:04:27 – Mitochondria: more than energy factories 00:04:59 – Circadian misalignment, EMFs, and modern stressors 00:05:36 – Overtraining, stress load, and lack of recovery 00:06:00 – Fatigue as a signal, not a lack of discipline 00:06:18 – How artificial light disrupts internal clocks 00:07:25 – Discipline as alignment with natural rhythms 00:07:36 – Emotional release, primal expression, and energy recovery 00:08:47 – Why "why am I tired all the time?" is exploding online 00:09:24 – The mitochondria as environmental sensors 00:10:06 – Stress signaling, thoughts, and cellular energy flow 00:11:18 – Breathwork and slowing the nervous system 00:12:24 – Social connection and low-stress signaling 00:13:02 – Sponsor: Bite toothpaste and eliminating plastic exposure 00:15:19 – Morning sunlight and circadian priming 00:15:52 – Reducing artificial light at night 00:16:15 – Nutrients that support mitochondrial function 00:17:29 – Sleep timing, consistency, and repair 00:18:20 – Evening routines and melatonin protection 00:19:46 – Small daily steps compound into real energy 00:20:17 – Antioxidants, inflammation, and recovery 00:20:49 – Training smarter, not harder 00:21:31 – Breathwork, sauna, and recovery rituals 00:22:26 – Nutrition, protein, and polyphenols 00:24:37 – Five daily energy takeaways 00:25:24 – Energy is permitted, not forced 00:26:03 – Listening to the body and closing reflections 00:26:49 – SuperLife Patreon and community support Join the SuperLife Community Get Darin's deeper wellness breakdowns — beyond social media restrictions: Weekly voice notes Ingredient deep dives Wellness challenges Energy + consciousness tools Community accountability Extended episodes Join for $7.49/month → https://patreon.com/darinolien Thank You to Our Sponsors: Therasage: Go to www.therasage.com and use code DARIN at checkout for 15% off Bite Toothpaste: Go to trybite.com/DARIN20 or use code DARIN20 for 20% off your first order.

Happy New Year! Welcome to our first episode of 2026.We kick things off with our Athens Big Fork Trail Marathon race recap—Zoe ran an 8-minute PR after 4 years of training (that's 30 miles per second of improvement), while TJ ran his worst time ever and learned some valuable lessons about mental performance and showing up when things don't go your way.Then we answer a listener question: Does shoe cushioning actually matter for injury prevention? The 2024 research from Malisoo et al. might surprise you—it's not about how soft your shoes are, it's about something else entirely.Our main topic: 5 signs your easy runs aren't easy enough. This is the single most common mistake we see as coaches, and fixing it might be the highest-leverage change you can make to your training. We break down the physiology of why slow running makes you faster, what the 80/20 research actually says (including a 2025 meta-analysis), and give you 5 concrete signs to watch for.In this episode:• Athens Big Fork Trail Marathon race recap• The math behind 4 years of training for an 8-minute PR• How to compete hard even when having a bad day• Shoe cushioning research: perception vs. mechanics• The physiology of aerobic vs. glycolytic training• What 80/20 polarized training really means• 5 signs your easy runs aren't easy enough• How Kipchoge's easy pace compares to recreational runnersStudies referenced:• Rosenblatt et al. 2025 (Sports Medicine) - Polarized training meta-analysis• Jong et al. 2025 (Applied Sciences) - Sleep and injury risk in runners• Malisoo et al. 2024 (European Journal of Sports Science) - Shoe cushioning perceptionConnect with us:Email: microcosmcoaching@gmail.comWebsite: microcosm-coaching.comJoin Foothills group coaching ($10/month with code FOOTHILLS10)
Screening Precarity integrates a cultural analysis of film texts and history, industry transformations, and the violence and crises of political economy infrastructures, to study post-liberalization shifts in the Hindi film industry in India. The book investigates Bollywood as a media system that has moved away from the glee and gusto of liberalization in the 1990s to an industry contending with the failures and inadequacies of neoliberalism's promises, and the ascendency of the material-affective redressals offered by religious ethnonationalism. The monograph examines 19 Hindi-language films released post-2010 to study contemporary India's precarious public sphere which has been characterized by a pervasive sense of professional-personal insecurity experienced by the vast majority. This is a book about the role of cinema, or cultural texts more generally, in a period marked by incredible insecurity, violence, and the absence of collective political alternatives. Screening Precarity is an intervention in the politics of representation, particularly, of how marginal identities are shaped, scripted, and screened in precarious times. It is also a cultural analysis of how the biggest film industry in the world is embedded in global media networks, and marshals state power and star power, national histories and transnational fantasies, structural impossibilities and individual agency. Megha Anwer is a theorist of literature and visual culture. Her research areas include contemporary postcolonial literature, global cinema, Victorian literature and visual culture. Anupama Arora is a professor of English and Communication, and Women's and Gender Studies, at the University of Massachusetts, Dartmouth. Dr Priyam Sinha is an Alexander Von Humboldt Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Institute for Asian and African Studies, Humboldt University in Berlin. Her research interests lie at the intersection of critical media industry studies, disability studies, gender studies, affect studies, production culture studies, and anthropology of the body. So far, her articles have been published in the European Journal of Cultural Studies, Media, Culture and Society; Communication, Culture and Critique; South Asian Diaspora, among others. She is also a regular podcast host at NewBooksNetwork and has been published in public writing forums like the Economic and Political Weekly, FemAsia, Asian Film Archive, among others.

The book investigates Bollywood as a media system that has moved away from the glee and gusto of liberalization in the 1990s to an industry contending with the failures and inadequacies of neoliberalism's promises, and the ascendency of the material-affective redressals offered by religious ethnonationalism. The monograph examines 19 Hindi-language films released post-2010 to study contemporary India's precarious public sphere which has been characterized by a pervasive sense of professional-personal insecurity experienced by the vast majority. This is a book about the role of cinema, or cultural texts more generally, in a period marked by incredible insecurity, violence, and the absence of collective political alternatives. Screening Precarity is an intervention in the politics of representation, particularly, of how marginal identities are shaped, scripted, and screened in precarious times. It is also a cultural analysis of how the biggest film industry in the world is embedded in global media networks, and marshals state power and star power, national histories and transnational fantasies, structural impossibilities and individual agency.

Podcast Family, in our immediate past episode we tackled the discrepancy that is often found between a clinical diagnosis of intra-amniotic infection/chorioamnionitis and histological chorioamnionitis. From that episode, we received a fantastic question from one of our podcast family members: Can a patient have IAI without fever? That question is really deep and highlights a gap in the current diagnostic scheme/ criteria from the ACOG. Listen in for details!1. ACOG CO 7122. Sukumaran S, Pereira V, Mallur S, Chandraharan E.

From the viral moment on The Traitors to the biology of the "silent but deadly," this episode is an unashamed deep dive into flatulence. Drs Siobhan and Sheena are joined by Julie Thompson, Lead Dietitian at Guts UK Charity, to break the stigma around passing wind. We discuss what normal gas looks like, why fiber makes us farty (and why that's a good thing!), and the truth about the Low FODMAP diet for IBS sufferers. Plus, we answer the important questions: Do spiders fart? And do charcoal underpants actually work?Featured Guest:Julie Thompson is a Gastroenterology Specialist Dietitian with over 16 years of experience supporting people with digestive diseases. She has a particular interest in disorders of gut-brain interaction, such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).A leading voice in her field, Julie contributed to the British Dietetic Association's (BDA) dietary guidelines for IBS and has delivered the BDA's Low FODMAP diet training to dietitians across the UK.

The conversation delves into the complexities of relationship problems faced by couples, emphasizing the common issues stemming from parenting and intimacy. It highlights the tendency of couples to seek external advice rather than resolving conflicts directly, and critiques the reliance on legal solutions for emotional and relational problems, advocating for a more psychological approach.Key TakeawaysCouples often face problems related to parenting or intimacy.Many couples avoid negotiating their issues directly.External influences complicate conflict resolution.Legal solutions are often misapplied to emotional problems.Emotional and relational issues require psychological approaches.Communication is key in resolving marital conflicts.Seeking help from friends or family can lead to confusion.Understanding the root cause of problems is essential.Negotiation skills are crucial for couples.Legal tools do not address emotional needs.Chapter1:20 - Systems theory meets family courts 2:44 - Family patterns and learned levers 4:16 - Attachment shifts during pregnancy 5:23 - Limits to self-reflection and change 6:59 - Expanding system: courts and professionals 7:52 - How politics shape couple conflict 11:04 - GDP, school pressure, and home stress 13:07 - Navigating legal systems in divorce 15:04 - Reciprocity and influence in relationships 17:05 - No legal fix for emotional needs 19:10 - Prevention through systemic therapy 21:07 - Challenging constructs and parenting norms 23:05 - Journal and master's on alienation 25:07 - Closing reflections and resourcesIf you wish to connect with Lawrence Joss or any of the PA-A community members who have appeared as guests on the podcast:Email - familydisappeared@gmail.comLinktree: https://linktr.ee/lawrencejoss(All links mentioned in the podcast are available in Linktree)Connect with Dr Charlie Azzopardi:Website: https://ift-malta.com/Courses (IFT Malta): https://ift-malta.com/courses-2/European Journal of Parental Alienation (EJPAP):https://ift-malta.com/elementor-1206/Please donate to support PAA programs:https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=SDLTX8TBSZNXSsa bottom partThis podcast is made possible by the Family Disappeared Team:Anna Johnson- Editor/Contributor/Activist/Co-hostGlaze Gonzales- Podcast ManagerConnect with Lawrence Joss:Website: https://parentalalienationanonymous.com/Email- familydisappeared@gmail.com
Teenagers today are more "connected" than ever—and also more alone than ever. In this episode, I break down what researchers are calling a teenage loneliness epidemic and how it's quietly shaping our kids' emotional, social, and spiritual health. Large global studies show that about 1 in 9 adolescents worldwide report feeling lonely "most of the time" or "always." Long-term data also shows that by 2018, high loneliness levels in adolescents had nearly doubled compared to 2012. In the U.S., young people hold some of the highest loneliness rates of any age group, with one national report showing 61% of young adults experiencing "serious loneliness." We'll also get into the conversation around a "male loneliness epidemic." Some recent findings show men ages 15–34 report higher day-to-day loneliness than women the same age, even though overall, large-scale research suggests gender differences in loneliness are actually quite small. So what does that mean for your son—or your daughter? In this episode, I talk about: What's really driving the rise in teen loneliness (and why it's not as simple as "social media = bad"). How our parental habits—pace, expectations, emotional modeling—can unintentionally deepen the problem or help solve it. Practical, realistic ways to create connection with teens who seem withdrawn, prickly, or hard to reach. How boys and girls experience loneliness differently, and what each needs from the adults in their lives. How to offer yourself compassion as you learn new ways of showing up for your teen. This isn't about guilt. It's about naming what's real, supporting families with compassion, and giving you tools that bring connection back into the relationship.

On legitimacy and chronic crisis. Benjamin Studebaker talks to Alex and Lee about his book, Legitimacy in Liberal Democracy – and why the absence of the threat of revolution makes the crisis drag on. What's wrong with 20th century accounts of legitimacy crises? What's changed? Why is contemporary politics so stuck? Is it inescapable? How does the breakdown of consensus make the emergence of a social majority so difficult? Is there no common programme we can agree on, focused on bread-and-butter issues? Do we need to stare despair in the face? Is catastrophe the only way out?

Lawrence Joss explores the deeper systemic roots of parental alienation, revealing how alienation unfolds gradually through subtle family dynamics rather than appearing overnight. He and Dr. Charlie unpack how cultural norms, family structures, and early relational patterns shape the roles parents step into, and how those roles can quietly shift power, boundaries, and attachment inside the family system.Key TakeawaysParental alienation is a gradual process.Negative talk about a parent is common in relationships.Cultural norms influence parenting roles significantly.In some cultures, mothers are primarily caregivers.Fathers often take on structural roles in parenting.Understanding alienation requires a cultural lens.Parental roles can vary widely across different societies.The dynamics of family relationships are complex.Emotional care is often seen as a mother's role.Structural care is typically associated with fathers.Chapters0:00 – Safety, Survival & Early Alienation Patterns 2:05 – What the Systemic Lens Reveals 5:40 – When Problems Become Relational 9:20 – Cultural & Structural Pressures on Families 11:55 – Alienation as a Gradual Process 14:40 – Boundary Breakdowns & Role Confusion 17:55 – Power Shifts: Children Elevated to Partner Role 21:25 – Why Kids Choose the Unpredictable Parent 25:40 – Subtle Behaviors That Shift Family Hierarchy 28:30 – Parentification & Emotional Oversharing 31:55 – Long-Term Effects on Attachment & Identity 35:50 – Attraction Patterns & the Drama TriangleIf you wish to connect with Lawrence Joss or any of the PA-A community members who have appeared as guests on the podcast:Email - familydisappeared@gmail.comLinktree: https://linktr.ee/lawrencejoss(All links mentioned in the podcast are available in Linktree)Connect with Dr Charlie Azzopardi:Website: https://ift-malta.com/Courses (IFT Malta): https://ift-malta.com/courses-2/European Journal of Parental Alienation (EJPAP):https://ift-malta.com/elementor-1206/Please donate to support PAA programs:https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=SDLTX8TBSZNXSsa bottom partThis podcast is made possible by the Family Disappeared Team:Anna Johnson- Editor/Contributor/Activist/Co-hostGlaze Gonzales- Podcast ManagerConnect with Lawrence Joss:Website: https://parentalalienationanonymous.com/Email- familydisappeared@gmail.com
Some academics go into the office every day; some are rarely ever seen on campus. Is one way better than the other? Who better to ask than the brilliant Ella Hafermalz who spent her career on the topic of remote work and its implications for belonging, community, collaboration, and performance. She points out that academia has always been a distributed and flexible profession. Researchers need flexibility and freedom to figure out their own best way of solving problems and doing their work, some of which may mean sitting at a desk, but maybe also involve lab or field work. On the other hand, pure freedom for individual academics makes a university nothing more than a collection of hired guns without a true community.
