Kratom is being sold like a simple plant, but the way it's packaged, concentrated, and marketed in 2026 can turn it into something much closer to an opioid problem hiding in plain sight. We're taking you through a practical, clinician-friendly update drawn from a talk I gave to local therapists and drug and alcohol counselors, especially as the political and regulatory landscape shifts and bans and enforcement efforts expand in places like California.We break down what kratom is (Mitragyna speciosa), why it can feel stimulating at low doses, and why higher doses bring opioid-receptor effects that can lead to tolerance, dependence, and withdrawal. We also cover what kratom overdose can look like, why mixing kratom with fentanyl, alcohol, or THC raises risk, and why naloxone still belongs in the conversation even when the data is often limited to case reports.Then we get real about how people actually encounter kratom today: smoke shop “strain” menus, euphoric promises, and an online retail experience that's faster and easier than getting medical care. The most important update is potency. Extracts are changing the game, and 7-hydroxymitragynine (7-OH) may be sold under the kratom label while acting like a far more powerful opioid. Finally, we lay out treatment pathways we use in addiction medicine, including comfort meds, tapering, Suboxone or methadone, and long-acting injectable buprenorphine (Sublocade/Brixadi) that can help some people step down without a brutal withdrawal.If this helped you understand kratom, share it with a colleague or a friend, subscribe for more practical addiction medicine, and leave a review so more people can find the show.To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.comTo see the podcast's ranking on millionpodcasts.com: https://www.millionpodcasts.com/addiction-medicine-podcasts/

Binge drinking can look harmless right up until it doesn't. If you only drink on weekends, vacations, or big nights out, it's easy to tell yourself you're fine because you're not drinking every day. But the consequences of one high-risk night can be life-changing, and clinically, intermittent heavy drinking can still meet criteria for an alcohol use disorder.I'm joined by Colleen Clifford, a former binge drinker who spent 36 years working at sea as a commercial fisherwoman and is now transitioning into health coaching to help clients manage binge drinking and binge eating. Colleen shares the personal grief that shaped her mission, the stories she used to justify “normal” partying, and the turning-point moment that made her drop alcohol for good. We also get practical about what actually counts as a binge, including how “one drink” is often smaller than the glass in your hand.We discuss the DSM-5 criteria for alcohol use disorder, how many people who binge drink do not think they have a problem, and why cravings can still show up years later. Colleen explains how she handles urges by observing them, naming the discomfort, and playing the tape forward. I also share a harm-reduction option many people don't know about: medications like naltrexone that, for some patients, can be taken before drinking to reduce binge episodes. We wrap with trends like alcohol-free wine and shifting drinking culture across generations, plus Colleen's core message: it only takes one moment of drinking too much to change your life forever.Subscribe, share this with someone who's questioning their relationship with alcohol, and please leave a review so more people can find the show.To learn more about Colleen and her work: https://purepotential.health/To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

Eres bueno en lo tuyo. Tienes conocimiento y experiencia. Y aun así, hay días en que sientes que te falta una marcha. La mayoría cree que eso es talento. Tim Grover te demuestra que no. Grover se pasó más de veinte años entrenando a los mejores deportistas del mundo: a Michael Jordan durante quince años, a Kobe Bryant, a Dwyane Wade. En Implacable (Relentless, 2013) destila lo que vio en la cabeza de la gente más excepcional del planeta. Y su tesis es tan simple como incómoda: todo lo que necesitas para ser excepcional ya lo tienes dentro. En este episodio vas a descubrir: ✅ Las tres formas de competir, y por qué casi todos se quedan en la primera. ✅ Por qué decir "esto es mío" te devuelve el poder de resolver cualquier problema. ✅ Por qué pensar de más te está costando dinero, y cómo confiar en tu criterio entrenado. ✅ Por qué la presión no te hunde: te convierte en diamante. ✅ Cómo no conformarte nunca... sin que te cueste la salud ni la gente que quieres. Un episodio sobre mentalidad para emprendedores que ya son buenos y quieren dejar de conformarse. Sin postureo y sin machaque: con la cabeza fría.

Sugar is everywhere, socially approved, and often handed out as comfort, reward, and love. That's exactly why it can be so hard to spot when it stops being “a treat” and starts acting like an addiction. I'm Dr. Casey Grover, and I sit down with Mike Collins, known as the Sugar Free Man, for a clear-eyed talk about what sugar addiction looks like in real people's lives and why willpower is such an unreliable tool when cravings take over.We get into the recovery lens: triggers, cravings, relapse language, and the emotional roots of using sugar to self-soothe. Mike shares how his own family history shaped his relationship with sweets, how his coaching and meeting-based community grew during COVID, and why support groups can be the difference between “trying again” and actually changing behavior. We also talk about who shows up for help, why so many people seek weight loss or type 2 diabetes relief first, and how diet culture has often missed the point.Then we go deeper on the science Mike leans on, especially fructose. We discuss why fructose may be a key driver of cravings, how it's processed in the liver, and why gut health topics like "leaky gut" get brought up in the sugar conversation. Finally, we compare moderation vs abstinence, how eating disorder treatment can clash with sugar-free protocols, and how finding healthier dopamine through exercise can support long-term recovery.If this conversation helps you see your own pattern more clearly, subscribe, share it with someone who's stuck in the loop, and leave a review so more people can find the show.To learn more about Mike's work:https://sugaraddiction.comhttps://www.skool.com/no-sugar-nation/aboutTo contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

A new article went viral on Twitter today: Nan Ransohoff's "The Third Wave of American Philanthropy" (link). Worth reading first. Nan is right about the shape of what's coming: hundreds of billions in new philanthropic capital, no ecosystem yet to absorb it, and a shortage of builders and organizations. I very much agree with that sentiment and the direction. More money, more people willing to start things, more urgency. But the conclusion I draw is almost the opposite. The new philanthropic wave shouldn't go hunting for new problems. Far more of it should go to animals. There are literally trillions of lives suffering so gravely in all corners of the world. The future is still incredibly grim; AI can impose even more significant suffering if we don't do it right. "Animal welfare" isn't one solved issue to cross off: it's where most of the sentience and suffering is, and where we should be looking. Animals are not one solved issue. It's not one issue EAs recognized the importance of animal suffering – factory farming, wild animal suffering – long before the rest of the world, which still has not really recognized its importance. That was the insight. And [...] ---Outline:(01:10) Animals are not one solved issue.

To mark the 60th anniversary of the Beach Boys' Pet Sounds, Interscope-Capitol has released a limited-edition Definitive Sound Series One Step version of this landmark album. Tom “Grover” Biery, who oversaw the project, tells of its unusual sourcing, which involves the 1972 master of Pet Sounds that was released as part of a double LP with the then-new Beach Boys album Carl and the Passions “So Tough.” Why was that 1972 Pet Sounds so revered, and how did it come to be used here instead of the original 1966 mono master? How does this DSS version differ from the mono/stereo Pet Sounds that Universal's Vinylphyle series just released? Do people buying these new Pet Sounds versions already own multiple copies? (Raises hand...) Biery also produced One-Steps from Dr. Dre, Beck, R.E.M. (as previously discussed on Caropop), Tom Petty, Green Day and Prince and the Revolution, and he explains why the quality justifies the price.

Peer support can feel like the missing link in addiction care, not because it replaces medicine, but because it makes recovery feel possible when someone is scared, ashamed, or shutting down. I'm Dr Casey Grover, and I sit down with Mark Ehrenkranz, a certified peer recovery specialist who does bedside work across a thousand-bed hospital, from the ED and ICU to behavioral health. Mark brings decades of recovery experience, plus the clarity that comes from having lived through relapse, depression, and the brutal way substance use disorder can hijack decision-making.We get practical about what peer recovery specialists actually do: building trust quickly, sharing just enough personal story to invite radical honesty, translating brain science into plain language, and helping patients move from crisis to a realistic next step. We also talk about the real-world barriers, including stigma in medical settings, limited funding for peer teams, and how different states handle certification and reimbursement. If you've ever searched for recovery coaching, peer recovery support services, sober support, or how to get help for addiction, this conversation maps the terrain with honesty and hope.We also go straight at the “one path” problem. AA helps many people, but it can feel dogmatic to others, so we discuss multiple pathways like SMART Recovery, CBT/DBT, secular and Buddhist recovery, online communities, and medication for opioid use disorder support spaces. Mark shares his “Navy SEAL Recovery” approach to nervous system regulation: one-minute diaphragmatic breathing, humming to stimulate the vagus nerve, and small doses of intentional discomfort to build resilience. If you care about compassionate, evidence-informed addiction treatment that respects individual fit, you'll leave with tools you can use today.Subscribe, share this with someone who needs it, and leave a review so more people can find the show.To learn more about Mark's work: https://www.go-humans.com/To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

Sall Grover returns for one of the most controversial and important conversations happening in Australia right now. After losing the landmark Giggle v Tickle case, Sall breaks down why she's taking the fight all the way to the High Court and what it means for free speech, women's spaces, gender identity, and the future of the Sex Discrimination Act.We dive deep into the question many people feel scared to even ask publicly anymore: what is a woman? We also unpack censorship, institutional pressure, compelled language, and why so many Australians feel governments and major institutions are no longer listening to everyday citizens.This episode isn't about hate — it's about open conversation, truth, biology, law, and the slippery slope of losing the ability to speak plainly about reality itself.PATREON Support The Hard Yarns and get access to exclusive drops, content, live shows and promo codes : www.patreon.com/thehardyarnspodcast FIND US Email: info@thehardyarns.com Instagram: @thehardyarnspodcast YouTube: https://youtube.com/@thehardyarnspodcastTikTok: @thehardyarnspodcast Web: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.thehardyarns.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ SPONSORS The Smart Business Lounge - https://www.thesmartbusinesslounge.com.auAll Trades Cover - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.alltradescover.com.au⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Crafted Finance - https://www.craftedfinance.com.auHard Yarns is Produced by B32media ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#hardyarns⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#comedy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. 

War of the Worlds by Orson Welles is perhaps the most famous radio play on Earth. But what's left out of the story is where the play was set — a real, little town in New Jersey. It took decades, but the people who live in Grover's Mill have come to embrace their part in one of the biggest media hoaxes of all time. In fact, they've turned it into something to be proud of.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Your go-to stress relief can become the biggest source of stress in your life, and that's where recovery often gets stuck. I'm joined by Dr Gary Sprouse, the “Less Stress Doc,” to unpack his deceptively simple framework called the Stress Reducer Loop: a substance or behavior lowers stress at first, then starts causing harm, which creates more stress, which drives more use. Once you see the loop clearly, it's easier to replace shame with strategy.We also dig into why the way we talk about addiction matters. Dr Sprouse explains how the disease label can backfire for some people by making them feel broken, abnormal, and permanently marked, so they wait until rock bottom to get help. His alternative framing treats alcohol, opioids, smoking, shopping, even over-exercising as attempts at “treatment” for stress. That perspective keeps the conversation practical: how do we reduce stress, and how do we swap in a lower-harm stress reducer?From Suboxone as a safer replacement for fentanyl or heroin, to relapse mechanics like brain “tracks,” inhibition, deprivation, and dwindling “quit energy,” we translate addiction medicine into plain language you can use. We also cover concrete stress tools like setting boundaries, changing expectations, and “de-lumping” overwhelming problems, plus why past trauma can silently consume most of a person's stress capacity.If this helped you see addiction, relapse prevention, and stress management in a new way, subscribe, share the episode with someone who needs it, and leave a review so more people can find the show.To learn more about Dr. Sprouse's work: https://www.thelessstressdoc.com/To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

Law firms talk a lot about client relationships. But turning that into something consistent, scalable and truly integrated across a firm is a very different challenge.  In this episode of the CMO Series Podcast, Eugene McCormick is joined by Bela Grover, who most recently served as Chief Client Relationship Officer at Goodwin Procter LLP, to explore what it truly takes to formalise client development in a way that strengthens collaboration, improves client experience and helps firms grow more strategically.  Following 25 years at Deloitte in revenue-generating and leadership roles, Bela provides a unique perspective to Big Law as she shares what law firms can learn from consulting firms about client strategy, how to build more purposeful client relationships, and why the systems behind client development matter just as much as the relationships themselves. Bela also dives into: Ways that client approaches differ between the Big Four and law firms How to introduce more structure without losing that entrepreneurial edge The importance of treating clients as clients of the firm, not individuals What strengthening client relationships looks like in practice Practical advice for building purposeful client relationships

Nitrous oxide can look like a harmless party trick until you understand how fast it can flip into a medical emergency. We dig into whippets and laughing gas from an addiction medicine perspective, including why the high hits within seconds, why people keep reaching for “just one more,” and how the same drug can functionally mimic ketamine, benzodiazepines, and opioids in the brain. That mix helps explain both its legitimate role in minor procedures and why it can be so addictive outside the clinic. We walk through what clinicians and families often miss: standard urine drug screens do not detect nitrous oxide, the detection window is short even with advanced lab testing, and the clearest red flag may be a profound vitamin B12 deficiency in someone who should not have it. From there, the conversation turns to the real stakes of B12 inactivation: spinal cord degeneration, myelopathy, peripheral neuropathy, gait instability, weakness, bladder dysfunction, cognitive changes, and the uncomfortable truth that we often cannot predict whether nerve damage will be permanent. We also cover immediate dangers while using, including hypoxia and sudden unconsciousness, traumatic falls, frostbite and cold burns from direct canister inhalation, pneumothorax and pneumomediastinum, arrhythmias especially when mixed with stimulants, mental health destabilization, increased blood clot risk, and serious pregnancy risks. Because there is no proven medication-assisted treatment for nitrous cravings, we focus on what we can do: treat co-occurring anxiety, depression, and trauma, use CBT and group therapy, push hard on vitamin B12 replacement, and apply practical harm reduction when someone is not ready to quit. We close with a vivid patient case that shows how smoke shop access and relapse can spiral into hospitalization and disability, and how recovery is still possible with the right support. If you find this helpful, subscribe, share the episode with someone who needs it, and leave a review so more people can find the show.To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

A benzodiazepine taper can feel like trying to land a plane in bad weather: the stakes are high, the instruments are imperfect, and speed is rarely your friend. We sit down with Dr. Rizzo to translate the ASAM benzodiazepine tapering guideline into real-world addiction medicine decisions, including what to do when a patient shows up on a very high dose of clonazepam and a sudden 50% cut has already happened.We dig into the practical details clinicians and patients search for: how fast to reduce dose, why “5% to 10% every 2–4 weeks” is often a safer starting point, and when switching to a longer-acting benzodiazepine like diazepam helps or hurts. We also separate physical dependence from benzodiazepine use disorder so withdrawal is treated with seriousness rather than stigma, and we talk candidly about the access-to-care problem when long-term benzo patients can no longer find a prescriber.We also cover special risks and settings: why older adults (65+) often need extra-slow tapers, why pregnancy requires careful coordination to avoid abrupt cessation, and when polysubstance use with opioids or alcohol should push care toward inpatient or residential support. Dr. Rizzo shares why phenobarbital can be useful in controlled detox settings, plus what actually improves success long term: CBT, treating underlying anxiety and insomnia with non-addictive medications, and building a plan patients can stick with.If this helps, subscribe, share it with a colleague or family member, and leave a review so more people can find evidence-based guidance on benzodiazepine tapering and withdrawal.ASAM Benzo Tapering Guideline: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11606-025-09499-2To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

Elmo, Big Bird, and Cookie Monster probably helped raise you, and the woman now leading Sesame Street traces her path there back to one transformative act: adopting her daughter Lily from China.

Residential treatment gets talked about like a single thing, but most people have no idea what they are walking into until they arrive. I sit down with Rachel Docekal, CEO of the Hanley Foundation in Florida, to open up the “black box” of residential addiction treatment and partial hospitalization (PHP), from how programs are structured to what patients actually do hour by hour.We dig into what separates a quality rehab program from one that is all marketing. Rachel explains measurement based care, why repeat assessments like PHQ 9 and GAD 7 style tools matter, and how teams should adjust treatment based on data instead of vibes. We also address a hard topic: predatory rehab practices, including unethical pressure to relapse to meet ASAM criteria so insurance will pay again, and what ethical, patient centered care should look like instead.Then we get practical. We talk length of stay, why discharge planning must start on day one, and how step down care, sober living, family involvement, and alumni support can make the difference between momentum and relapse. Rachel also walks through a real residential daily schedule including medical and psychiatric care, cohort based groups, nutrition and fitness, and why many programs restrict smartphones to improve engagement and outcomes.If you want a clearer map for choosing a residential treatment center and building an aftercare plan that holds up in real life, press play.

“This is the 80's before the 80's was the 80's…”   Released April 18, 1980, HEAVEN AND HELL, the 9th studio album by BLACK SABBATH (and the first to feature Ronnie James Dio on vocals), marks a simultaneous sonic departure and rebirth for the Godfathers of Metal.    While some would argue that it sounds more like RJD's solo output and NOTHING like the Sabbath of the 70's, HEAVEN AND HELL is more than just “the next Sabbath album”.   Featuring fantastical & medieval lyrical themes coupled with a revitalized songwriting style and renewed vigor, HEAVEN AND HELL is a brilliant example of how a band in desperate need of a “heavy metal makeover” can completely reinvent their sound and expand their artistic palette to accommodate a brand-new chapter for a brand-new decade.   If you've got questions, we've got answers! Check out our newest segment, “ASK THE METALHEAD”.    Find out who might just be “the Yoda of metal”, discover which song absolutely must be played on misty mornings, and realize that “the anxiety of being around family” can only be rivaled by the disturbingly high readings captured on the “goddamnometer” when you JOIN US from The Bunkerpoon Center for Metal Excellence as we celebrate 46 years of the BLACK SABBATH Mark II lineup with HEAVEN AND HELL.

Someone you love keeps drinking, using, or relapsing and you can feel your body tighten the moment you walk into the room. That tension makes sense, but it can also become part of the system that keeps addiction stuck. We sit down with therapist and family coach Jeff Jones, founder of The Family Recovery Solution and author of Rethinking Addiction, to unpack what actually helps families when a loved one is in active addiction or early recovery. We get concrete with a classic scenario from the clinic: a middle-aged man with alcohol addiction and a spouse who loves him deeply but feels forced into constant pushing and correcting. Jeff explains why “help” can turn into pressure, how triangulation pulls doctors into the drama triangle, and how a simple 180-degree experiment plus journaling can reveal new options. We also talk boundaries as a way to create safety, calm the nervous system, and make better decisions, not as punishment or control. Then we widen the lens to parenting teens and the added power dynamics families face, including why authoritative parenting (firm limits with connection) tends to work best. Jeff shares a powerful reframe from mediation: separate the addiction from the essence of your loved one, so you can hold consequences while staying anchored in love. We also cover structured family meetings, the idea that families move through the stages of change too, and why recovery is about building a life worth living, not only stopping a substance. If this conversation helps, subscribe, share it with a family who needs it, and please leave a review so more people can find Addiction Medicine Made Easy.To learn more about Jeff's work: https://www.thefamilyrecoverysolution.com/To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

THC isn't the same drug it was 20 years ago, and pregnancy counseling hasn't caught up. We sit down with Dr. Nazanin Amadieh, a board-certified OBGYN who also trained in addiction medicine, to map what today's high-potency cannabis means for conception, the placenta, fetal development, and the newborn period. If you've heard “it's legal” or “it's just a plant” as proof of safety, this conversation offers a clearer, evidence-informed way to think about marijuana during pregnancy without stigma and without hand-waving. We dig into the endocannabinoid system, why fetal receptors show up as early as five to six weeks, and how cannabis exposure may affect implantation, placenta formation, and early brain development. Then we get practical about the outcomes clinicians track: miscarriage risk signals, the stronger association with low birth weight or small for gestational age babies, and what NICU admission can mean for families. Because so much research is dated and modern THC concentrations can reach levels older studies never measured, we also talk openly about uncertainty and why “no proof of harm” is not the same as “safe.” Nausea and vomiting gets its own spotlight, including the tricky overlap between hyperemesis gravidarum and cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome, plus the hot shower clue that can point toward CHS. We also cover breastfeeding and THC in breast milk, what parents should watch for, and why postpartum relapse to cannabis is common when anxiety and overwhelm hit after the first few months. If you care about maternal health, prenatal care, addiction medicine, or harm reduction, you'll leave with better questions and clearer next steps. Subscribe, share this with someone who's pregnant or caring for pregnant patients, and please leave a review so more people can find the show.To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

Benzodiazepines can feel like flipping a switch: panic quiets, sleep finally comes, your body unclenches. But what happens when that “off switch” starts rewiring the system you rely on to stay calm in the first place? Dr Andrew Rizzo joins me to dig into the biology behind chronic benzodiazepine use and why so many clinicians now recognize benzodiazepine-induced neurological dysfunction (BIND) as a real, patient-altering condition rather than a vague catch-all for “rebound anxiety.” We walk through the GABA receptor in plain language, including why benzodiazepines act as positive allosteric modulators, how the brain chases homeostasis by downregulating inhibition and upregulating glutamate, and why tolerance is structural not moral. Then we connect the molecular story to the clinical reality: why abrupt benzo cessation can be life-threatening, how seizure risk emerges, what “kindling” means for repeat withdrawal attempts, and why a slow benzodiazepine taper often takes months, not weeks. We also spend time on what patients and families actually need during recovery: validation, steady follow-up, and a plan that treats this like a fragile neurobiological injury. If you're a clinician, a patient, or someone supporting a loved one, you'll leave with clearer language, sharper warning signs, and a better mental model for why symptoms like photophobia, tinnitus, tremor, and cognitive fog can persist long after the last pill. Subscribe, share this with someone who needs it, and leave a review with your biggest question about benzos and withdrawal.To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

Fentanyl changed the playbook for starting buprenorphine, and we're tired of watching people suffer through days of withdrawal just to “earn” their first dose. So we break down a cleaner, faster on-ramp: direct-to-inject. Think of weekly Brixadi as an automatic microdose that builds buprenorphine levels over 24 hours, cuts out guesswork, and sets up a smooth handoff to a monthly injection that actually sticks.We start by demystifying precipitated withdrawal with simple, memorable analogies—the “100 mph to 60 mph” shift explains why heroin-era inductions no longer work when fentanyl lingers like THC. From there, we map the current options: long waits with comfort meds, meticulous sublingual microdosing, short-acting opioid bridges, and why DTI often outperforms them in the real world. You'll hear our step-by-step protocol for week one: when to keep using, when to stop, how to layer sublingual buprenorphine, and which comfort meds reliably blunt symptoms without fogging people out.Then we get tactical. We compare Sublocade and Brixadi in plain English—needle size, injection sites, refrigeration, and the “tail” that can protect patients who miss appointments or face custody interruptions. We explain why some teams favor weekly Brixadi for the bridge and monthly Sublocade for its long half-life, while others choose monthly Brixadi for logistics and patient comfort. We also clear up a big myth: yes, you can supplement injectables with sublingual buprenorphine when needed.What matters most is the outcome. DTI compresses complexity into a single, supported action and replaces fear with momentum. Patients report fewer false starts, less chaos, and a quicker path to cravings control and stability. For clinicians and outreach teams, it's a protocol that works on the street and in clinic, with clear timing, meds, and contingencies that honor how people actually live.If this helped you rethink induction in the fentanyl era, follow the show, share it with a colleague, and leave a quick review so more clinicians and families can find it. Treating addiction saves lives—let's make the first step easier.To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

Nick brings film critics Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy back to the show to break down a batch of new movies, including They Will Kill You, Forbidden Fruits, The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist, and another fashion documentary, Marc By Sofia. Erik also shares a few highlights from what he caught at the SXSW Film Festival. Later on, Esmeralda Leon joins Nick to talk about the classic TV special Scared Straight and react to a subscriber voicemail that somehow connects basketball and vasectomies. From there, things take a turn into Muppet territory, with both of them diving into their favorites, with Esma picking Rowlf and Nick going with Grover, along with some thoughts on the stranger imaginary characters and where they all came from. They even get into the living arrangements on Sesame Street, questioning whether Bert and Ernie are in a house or an apartment, and pointing out that Oscar might have the nicest setup of all for someone living in a trash can. [Ep 441]

A lot of people think addiction begins with a bad decision. We start earlier—at the moments when consent was stolen, trust collapsed, and silence felt safer than speaking. Carly sits down with us to map the real terrain: childhood sexual assault, a near-rape behind a high school bonfire, military harassment that exploited rank, and the long slide from alcohol to meth, from oxy to heroin. The story is raw and specific, and it asks a bigger question we should all be wrestling with: what if addiction isn't the disease, but the way we cope with the ones we don't treat?We walk through the culture of the OxyContin generation, the false safety of pills, and why heroin often follows when access dries up. Carly explains how meth's euphoria and laser focus quieted a mind on fire, and why boundaries—not willpower—became the non‑negotiable tools of her recovery. We dig into homelessness, the dangerous logic of abusive relationships, and a nuanced view of sex work as both survival and, at times, chosen agency. It's complicated on purpose; real lives are.What stands out most is the timeline. She got clean from heroin years before she learned relationship sobriety. That difference matters to anyone supporting survivors or working in addiction medicine: cravings don't exist in a vacuum, and trauma doesn't disappear at discharge. We talk about “playing the tape forward,” spotting red flags early, and building safety that might look extreme to outsiders but keeps a survivor alive and growing.If you care about trauma-informed recovery, sexual assault, military harassment, homelessness, sex work, and the real mechanics of healing, you'll find honesty here you can use. Listen, share with someone who needs to hear it, and leave a review so others can find the show. Your feedback helps us keep having the hard conversations that save lives.To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

Another summer is here and Luke and Kronos are still a threat to Camp Half-Blood. Percy, Annabeth, Grover, and Tyson team up and head way down below into Daedalus' Labyrinth to stop the pending invasion. Tune in as Laura and Meggie navigate their way through book 4 of Percy Jackson & the Olympians!!! 

I sat down with a room full of high school seniors to talk to them about party culture in college. College freedom can be thrilling—and unforgiving. As an ER physician turned addiction specialist, I pull back the curtain on campus party culture with real stories, clear limits, and life-saving tactics to be used the first weekend of college. From Narcan basics and Good Samaritan protections to the truth about binge drinking, this conversation lays out what actually keeps college students safe when nights get loud and fast.We start with the numbers: what high-risk drinking is, why “I can hold my liquor” isn't a flex but a warning sign, and how body size and sex change BAC more than most people realize. Then we walk through the pressure cookers—Greek life hazing, pre-gaming, shotgunning beers, beer bongs, keg stands, and jungle juice—explaining why compressing 10 drinks into an hour is the exact scenario that leads to blackouts, injuries, and assaults. I teach simple, effective steps: eat first, alternate drinks with water, stick with sealed beverages you open yourself, and never leave your cup behind. We talk candidly about consent, spiked drinks, and why half of campus sexual assaults involve alcohol.The episode also tackles cannabis in 2026: today's THC is a different drug than what parents remember. We unpack potency, “greening out,” rising rates of cannabis-induced paranoia and psychosis, and how frequent use intersects with attention, grades, and graduation. Along the way, I share ER-tested guidance for handling alcohol poisoning—when to observe, when to call 911, and how to position someone safely—as well as how to spot early signs of alcohol addiction in college students and get help through campus health services.If you're a senior heading to college, a parent, or a mentor, this is a clear-eyed playbook for staying safe without sitting out. Subscribe, share this with a student you care about, and leave a quick review—it helps more people find practical, judgment-free advice when they need it most.To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

Prophecy Radio episode #154 includes our discussion of Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, episode 8, “The Fleece Works Its Magic Too Well.” We're skipping the news again this week, but we also discuss the last episode of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians Official Podcast, which features Aryan Simhadri and Walker Scobell being besties. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air every other week. All discussions are PG-13.No News this week! We'll get caught up soon!Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, episode 8 discussion (00:09:40) It's finally time to discuss the finale!! We kick off this episode with a flashback to that night on Half-Blood Hill before jumping back to Percy listening to Annabeth and Grover excitedly discussing Thalia's return. Blackjack appears in the road and Percy knows him. Sally wants to help, but this is quite literally Percy's battle, so she has to let him go do demigod things. Tantalus is being insufferable back in the hippodrome, but everyone is put out of their misery pretty quickly. Luke's forces have already been attacking Camp, and he arrives with even more. He's changed his tune since last time, saying anyone left inside Camp will be burned to the ground, but he does say Thalia's tree must be protected. Percy and Annabeth have an uncomfortable discussion about Thalia's loyalty. Percy and Co. come across some armed Campers, and they have to surrender to them. Mr. D doesn't want to believe anything is wrong, but Percy gives an impassioned speech about how Kronos is back. Clarisse listens as Chris tells her there are traitors in their midst, then reveals himself as one of those traitors! This is a little different than what happened in the book, but it makes sense to give Chris a larger role in the show. Turns out, Clarisse DOES have friends!! Percy and Luke square off, and it becomes obvious they have different objectives. It's bloody and violent, but this is only the beginning—just wait until season 5! Tyson comes to the rescue, and he wins an award for Best Brother of the Century! Allison shoots Annabeth with an arrow, but Percy must focus on the task at hand: Saving Thalia's tree. He hands the fleece off to Clarisse in another show of trust and maturity, and we're totally here for it. Thalia's shocking returns knocks Percy out. Percy is seaside with Poseidon, who tells him what they're all up against. Poseidon invited Tyson to be by his side, but Percy's destiny lies elsewhere. This scene is so emotional, between Tyson thanking Poseidon for bringing him to Percy and Sally, to Poseidon saying love is even stronger than Fate. Chiron is back and Percy still drools in his sleep, so all is right with the world. Clarisse is in charge of preparing Camp's troops. It gets a little awkward, but one “Shut up, Jackson” makes everything feel normal again. Chiron tells the truth of what happened that night on Half-Blood Hill. What did we think of Courtney B. Vance's interpretation of Zeus? Thalia returns, and Percy is feeling pretty conflicted about it. We also discuss the TWO bonus scenes at the end of the episode. Kristen has some follow-up questions. Percy Jackson and the Olympians Official Podcast highlights (01:21:05) We get to see Aryan's audition tape for Percy Jackson, the character! Aryan interviews his best friend, Walker, who talks about how the fight sequence at the end of the finale sets up season 3. They discuss Percy's big speech, and how Percy will continue to grow and evolve over the coming seasons. These books really did inform Walker's personality. Toby Stephens takes a break from playing Captain Hook to chat with them—but he never takes a break from smelling amazing! Once again, everyone has such nice things to say about Daniel Diemer. Walker and Toby also have some super nice things to say about each other. It's not easy playing a god, but Toby is pretty great at it. Also, he's acting royalty, so he's kind of the perfect person for this role. They talk about Lance Reddick and Courtney B. Vance. Aryan and Walker discuss Thalia's role in season 2. Then it's time to discuss season 3! Olive and Levi (Bianca and Nico) just got drenched for the first time on set, which seems to be a right of passage for this cast. Walker hates school and wishes he didn't have to go anymore. The guy playing Thorn (David Costabile) is apparently fantastic. Aryan got to play his panpipes and the two of them also watched the first movie and then the first season together. Walker also discusses his favorite scene from this season.

Hypnosis and moderation rarely share the same sentence—until you understand how your brain decides to drink. We sit down with Australian clinical hypnotherapist Georgia Foster to unpack a practical, science‑aligned approach to reducing alcohol that starts by changing state, not shaming behavior. Georgia explains why the amygdala's fear and urgency often override the best intentions, how the inner critic fuels that cycle, and what it takes to bring the prefrontal cortex—the calm, planning center—back online when it matters.You'll hear how two common patterns show up in overdrinking. The perfectionist white‑knuckles through the week, then binges on relief because there are no references for slow, present drinking. The pleaser says yes to keep the peace, struggling to stay alcohol‑free in social settings. Georgia shows how hypnosis creates new “future references” by rehearsing success in the alpha‑theta window, the natural state between wake and sleep. By pairing imagined events with emotions like confidence, ease, and clarity, the brain encodes a different blueprint—so at a wedding, work dinner, or solo evening at home, choice feels obvious and safe.We also dig into mindless home routines, the difference between emotional and habitual drinking, simple tactics like “drink one, water one,” and why many people discover they don't even like what they were pouring once the inner critic quiets down. Georgia shares who responds fastest to hypnotherapy, when to seek additional support, and why building self‑esteem is central to long‑term change. Along the way, we talk about privacy, digital programs, and her goal to help one million people drink less by replacing shame with skill.If this conversation resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who could use a gentler path, and leave a quick review—your words help others find evidence‑informed help and start their own change.To learn more about Georgia's work: https://shop.georgiafoster.com/To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

Another summer approaches for Percy and he's kind of getting used to this whole Half-Blood thing. When nightmares of Grover in need combined with suspicious activities at camp lead to another quest on the table, Percy will do anything he can to get Grover back and save Camp Half-Blood. With Annabeth and his new friend/half-brother Tyson in tow its time to sail the ocean blue! Join Laura and Meggie as they *dive* (pun intended!!!) into the Sea of Monsters. 

What if addiction isn't a failure of willpower, but a failure of the brain systems that make willpower possible? In this episode Dr. Brenda Fann (who has been on the pod before) interviews me about addiction as we provide a clear, compassionate walk through what addiction really is, why it grips so hard, and how families can help without enabling. You'll hear a physician's lived experience of losing a spouse to alcohol use disorder, the science behind cravings and executive function, and the practical steps that move people from chaos toward stability.We unpack the three C's—cravings, compulsive use, and continued use despite harm—and translate them into everyday red flags partners and parents can actually spot. We explain how early exposure reshapes the adolescent brain, why withdrawal makes “just quit” dangerous advice, and what truly counts as a standard drink. From insomnia fueled drinking to masking trauma with stimulants, we explore how substances solve short‑term problems while creating long‑term damage—and how targeted treatment reverses that math.Then we get tactical. Think of recovery as a three‑legged stool: medication to steady the biology, therapy to build skills and face trauma, and peer support to restore connection and motivation. For families, the parallel path matters: Al‑Anon or Nar‑Anon, counseling, and firm but fair boundaries. You'll learn conversation starters that lower defenses (“Help me understand what you need from the alcohol”) and a simple rule for avoiding the “villain” role while still holding the line. We also break down the data on teens, vaping, and the myth that teaching kids to drink at home protects them—it doesn't.If you're ready for a roadmap that blends medical insight with human kindness, this conversation delivers. Subscribe for more evidence‑based guidance, share this episode with someone who needs it, and leave a review so others can find real help faster.To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

We're headed on the road in 2026! Buy tickets here:https://www.x1entertainment.com/bttb"You and I are white trash because we say the F-word, but Kira is better than that...she has a criminal record but whatever. She just said the F-word 10 times!" Well fortunately for our lovely Bitches, Kira is in the hot seat on the second half of "Wild Wild West Coast Pt 2." After a couple weeks of threats, Tracey is finally delivering on her promise to oust Kira from the ALDC by exposing her past legal troubles, but will it be enough to actually secure Sarah R a more permanent spot on the team over Kalani?As the ALDC make their final LA hurrah at Starbound they run into a bit of a problem, their dances just aren't it! Between tired choreography and some out of date references, its hard to imagine any of the dances making a strong impression compared to the more intense LA dancers in attendance. Worst of all is the bizarre choice to paint JoJo and Mackenzie in black and white for their I Love Lucy homage, managing to make the two look more like corpses than Lucy and Ethel. To add insult to injury their music shuts off mid-performance... so is that just an intentional sabotage at this point? How did it keep happening!?But while the girls are struggling to make some noise on stage, the moms certainly are making noise behind the scenes. Abby threatened that not all the girls would be returning to Pittsburgh with the ALDC, and Tracey decides the best way to make her case is by taking out the competition. She begins to hurl insults and accusations at Kira, bringing up not only the fact she'd been charged with fraud for running an eBay scheme, but also claims she was arrested for credit card fraud! Shouting of course ensues. But honestly? Abby still seems more upset over Holly's perceived betrayal from a few days prior, and technically the MattyB incident is still on the horizon because that stuff all goes down AFTER the competition. So for all of Tracey's efforts, it would seem she might have played her cards just a little too late, or maybe there really is not stopping the Kalani train if she's one of Abby's favorites.Quotes“[The Bitchettes] know it's a good episode when you start talking in your Grover voice." (14:39-14:43 | Christi)“Jess says she's really sick of Abby going on and on about Maddie. Well Jess, girlfriend, you just got there eight episodes ago so buckle up." (18:48-18:57 | Christi & Kelly)“She cans hove Radio Disney up her ass, and Kelly really does means that!" (47:14-47:18 | Christi)“We lost to ourselves.
