In this episode of Sleep Takeout, Dan and Michelle explain how hormonal changes can affect sleep throughout a woman's life—from puberty, PMS, and pregnancy to postpartum recovery, perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.You'll learn how estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone influence sleep quality, body temperature, mood, nighttime arousal, and the risk of obstructive sleep apnea. Dan and Michelle also discuss why women's sleep problems have historically been underrecognized and why symptoms may change dramatically across different life stages.In this episode, they explore:• How menstrual-cycle changes can contribute to insomnia• Why PMS symptoms, pain, and mood changes can increase nighttime arousal• The connection between PCOS and sleep-disordered breathing• How sleep changes during each trimester of pregnancy• Postpartum sleep deprivation and maternal mental-health risks• The effects of caregiving and midlife stress on sleep• Why perimenopause can cause hot flashes, awakenings, and lighter sleep• How menopause may increase obstructive sleep apnea risk• Cooling strategies, consistent sleep habits, and dietary considerations• When to discuss hormone replacement therapy or other treatments with a qualified provider• How to advocate for specialized care when sleep problems are dismissedAlthough women experience sleep difficulties at high rates, effective evaluation and treatment are available.

It's Christmas in July here on the podcast, and we're back discussing that most eternal of all holiday classics: Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol. More specifically, we're taking a look at the 1979 made-for-TV movie An American Christmas Carol. This adaptation transposes the story into 1930s New England, where the town miser is Benedict Slade, played by Henry Winkler. The film first aired in December of 1979, in the middle of Happy Days' seventh season, which explains why roughly half of the film takes place during the "Christmas Past" sequence. Winkler was not about to put on the old man makeup any longer than he had to! ALSO! Have they ever done a "Christmas Carol" adaptation starring Dracula? Let's talk about that. Questions/Comments?

John Harbaugh's first team meeting as a New York Giant went viral for all the wrong reasons, but Covino & Rich think the internet is blaming the wrong side of the room. The guys break down the speech, the dead silence that followed, and why the most awkward speeches ever given still belong to Steve Buscemi and Chris Farley. Then Henry Winkler stops by Overpromised with a run of sports stories nobody expects from a guy who says he had no room in his brain for sports: the Kareem Abdul-Jabbar game-worn jersey he accidentally threw in the laundry, the ball Magic Johnson stole out of heaven, pitching for the Happy Days softball team, running into Tom Brady at an Italian restaurant, the Adam Sandler phone call that turned into The Waterboy, and the surprise Patrick Mahomes had waiting for him on the field at SoFi. Plus, Henry is still waiting on Mahomes to take him up on that dinner.

We're still looking at Happy Days spinoffs, because that's what the kids are excited about these days. There was Joanie Loves Chachi, of course, in which the two worst singers in the world dream of making it big. But does anyone else remember Out of the Blue, a sitcom about a guardian angel named Random? No, just us? Whatever. Then there were the Saturday morning cartoon spinoffs: Fonz and the Happy Days Gang (in which our heroes travel through time in a flying saucer), Laverne and Shirley in the Army (with their sergeant, an actual pig voiced by Horshack), and Mork and Mindy (but they're in high school and drive an egg car). We even touch on a few proposed spinoffs that never happened, starring Ralph and Potsie, those pesky Tuscadero girls... and the mysterious Kat Mandu.

Oscar-winning director Ron Howard tells host Ben Mankiewicz that he feared being “branded” a supernatural comedy director following the success of “Splash” and “Cocoon.” After tapping guidance from his “Happy Days” boss, Garry Marshall, and insight from Frank Capra's biography, Howard set forth to explore the medium of film in all its genres as a director. He tells Ben about being mesmerized by “Bonnie and Clyde” and “The Graduate” and learning how to work with stars when acting in “The Shootist” with John Wayne directed by Don Siegel. Ron Howard's Super 8 answers run the gamut from nods to “Project Hail Mary.” and “Eastern Promises,” to “One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest,” and “Blazing Saddles.” Films Mentioned: Night Shift Splash Cocoon Grand Theft Auto It Happened One Night Brian's Song Boys in the Band The Wild Bunch The Graduate Bonnie and Clyde White Heat The Shootist Charley Varrick Skyward Eden The Paper The Missing Backdraft Frontier Woman The Journey Around the World in 80 Days One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World Project Hail Mary Eastern Promises Unforgiven A Face in the Crowd Gone with the Wind Matilda High Noon Arrival Something About Mary Terms of Endearment As Good as it Gets Young Frankenstein Blazing Saddles Learn more about your ad choices.

Send us Fan MailS6 E137 Narcolepsy Treatment Is Changing: Orexin Drugs + Sleep StrategiesNarcolepsy treatment may be entering a new era. In this episode of Sleep Takeout, Dan and Michelle explore how new orexin-targeted medications could change the treatment of narcolepsy type 1 by addressing the underlying orexin, also called hypocretin, deficiency rather than managing each symptom separately.They explain what narcolepsy is, why it disrupts both daytime alertness and nighttime sleep, and how symptoms may include excessive daytime sleepiness, fragmented nighttime sleep, vivid dreams, hypnagogic or hypnopompic hallucinations, sleep paralysis, and cataplexy. Narcolepsy type 1 is associated with low orexin levels and includes cataplexy, while narcolepsy type 2 typically occurs without cataplexy.Dan and Michelle also discuss orexin receptor agonists, an emerging class of narcolepsy medications designed to restore orexin signaling in the brain's sleep-wake system. The episode highlights oveporexton, formerly TAK-861, an investigational oral orexin receptor 2 agonist being studied for narcolepsy type 1. Clinical trials have examined its effects on excessive daytime sleepiness, wakefulness, cataplexy, nighttime awakenings, and other symptoms.They also review earlier research involving danavorexton, formerly TAK-925, an intravenous orexin receptor 2 agonist studied for its wake-promoting effects in people with narcolepsy type 1 and narcolepsy type 2.Medication is only one part of narcolepsy management. This conversation also covers practical behavioral strategies that may help people manage symptoms and improve daily functioning, including:• Brief, strategically scheduled naps• A consistent bedtime and wake time• Reducing stimulation before bedtime• Cognitive behavioral therapy for narcolepsy• Responding differently to discouraging thoughts about symptoms• Avoiding heavy meals and large amounts of sugar when they worsen daytime alertness• Working with a sleep medicine specialist to develop an individualized treatment planWhether you live with narcolepsy, support someone who does, or want to understand the future of sleep medicine, this episode offers an accessible look at narcolepsy symptoms, orexin medications, cataplexy treatment, CBT, strategic naps, nutrition, and emerging research.Chapters00:00 Remote Recording and Behind-the-Scenes Banter00:19 The Future of Narcolepsy Treatment02:31 What Is Narcolepsy?03:26 Cataplexy, Sleep Paralysis and Hallucinations05:30 How Orexin-Targeted Drugs Work06:03 Oveporexton, TAK-861 and the Takeda Pipeline07:54 Behavioral Treatment for Narcolepsy08:30 Strategic Naps and a Consistent Sleep Schedule11:19 CBT for Narcolepsy and Managing Discouraging Thoughts12:41 Diet Tips for Daytime Alertness13:55 Key Takeaways and Final ThoughtsDisclaimerThis podcast is intended for educational purposes and is not a substitute for individualized medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

PAUL CHANDLER, THE SHY YETI on JUMPING THE SHARK.First broadcast on FAB RADIO INTERNATIONAL at 19:00 on June 21st 2026.This week, if it hasn't done so already, VISION ON SOUND finally gets to jump the shark, that strange phenomenon where a TV show does something so outrageous, so ridiculous, or something simply so awful that its viewers can never really look at it in quite the same way again. The phrase itself refers back to 1977, and an episode in the fifth season of the popular American wholesome family sitcom HAPPY DAYS in which the much loved Arthur Fonzarelli (“THE FONZ”) straps on his water-skis and, well, jumps over a shark, although the phrase itself, referring to television absurdities generally, wasn't coined until 1985, nearly a decade later, by JOHN HEIN and SEAN CONNOLLY.Whilst the phrase is often used to point out the particular moment that a television series knows that it is doomed, that particular episode of HAPPY DAYS was actually very successful, and the series itself continued for another six seasons across the next seven years, and prompted seven different spin-off series during its run, including LAVERNE & SHIRLEY, and MORK & MINDY.PAUL CHANDLER, THE SHY YETI himself, suggested that we might want to talk about this whole notion of Jumping The Shark, and, at the risk of strapping on our own water-skis, over the next hour we chat about several of our favourite TV series and whether or not they ever jumped the shark, and I hope you'll enjoy at least some of that we come up with.PLEASE NOTE - For Copyright reasons, musical content sometimes has to be removed for the podcast edition.

They explain that the brain relies heavily on light, not clocks, to set alertness and sleepiness, and offer practical tips: immediately shift to destination time for meals, caffeine, naps, and sleep; consider travel direction (east vs. west) and use daylight/darkness strategically; “create your own sunset” by reducing light 1–2 hours before bed; pack darkness tools like an eye mask and curtain clips; keep naps short (about 20–30 minutes); stop caffeine at least 6 hours before bedtime and avoid using alcohol for sleep; build sleep pressure with daytime activity; use melatonin thoughtfully as a timing cue with medical guidance; and don't catastrophize one imperfect night—aim for progress, not perfection.00:00 Midnight Sun Jet Lag02:27 Circadian Clock Basics06:05 Tip 1 Destination Time09:58 Tip 2 Travel Direction12:52 Tip 3 Create Sunset17:49 Tip 4 Pack Darkness19:43 Tip 5 Nap Smart22:27 Tip 6 Caffeine Alcohol24:10 Tip 7 Build Sleep Pressure26:22 Tip 8 Melatonin Timing28:08 Tip 9 No Catastrophizing30:06 Simple Travel Sleep Plan31:37 Wrap Up And Resources✨ Real rest isn't just about falling asleep, it's about feeling at ease again.

Rather than trying to force sleep, empty your mind, or “make yourself relax,” this practice helps you notice sleep-related thoughts, feelings, and body sensations without judgment — and then gently return your attention to the image of leaves floating down a stream.This meditation may be especially helpful if you struggle with:Difficulty falling asleepWaking up in the middle of the nightEarly morning awakeningsRacing thoughts at bedtimeSleep anxietyFear of not sleepingFrustration about being awakeChecking the clockWorrying about tomorrowFeeling tense, restless, or alert in bedInsomnia-related body sensationsOverthinking at nightTrying too hard to sleepThis practice is rooted in mindfulness, self-compassion, anxiety treatment, and principles often used alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia, also known as CBT-I. The goal is not to force sleep to happen. The goal is to soften the struggle with wakefulness, notice thoughts and sensations more gently, and give your mind something steady and compassionate to return to. If you are awake at 2 AM, 3 AM, or 4 AM wondering, “Why can't I sleep?” or “How do I calm my racing thoughts at night?” this episode can help you practice a different response: noticing, allowing, and returning. Use this guided sleep meditation when you are lying in bed, during a nighttime awakening, before sleep, or anytime you want to practice letting go of anxious thoughts about sleep.In this episode, you'll practice:Mindfulness for insomniaA Leaves on a Stream meditationLetting go of racing thoughtsNoticing sleep anxiety without judgmentResponding kindly to nighttime wakefulnessBecoming aware of body sensations without fighting themReturning attention gently when the mind wandersReducing the struggle around being awakeThis episode is not about perfect sleep. It is about building a calmer, more compassionate relationship with your mind and body when sleep feels difficult.00:00 Welcome and Setup01:19 Visualize the Stream02:13 Place Thoughts on Leaves03:30 Handle Feelings and Sensations05:52 Let Go of Control07:20 When the Mind Hooks You08:55 Kindness in the Night09:46 Nonjudgmental Awareness11:54 Closing Rest and Return✨ Real rest isn't just about falling asleep, it's about feeling at ease again.

Portland’s Lloyd Center is scheduled to close Aug. 8 after more than 65 years in business. The current owner, Urban Renaissance Group, plans to demolish the mall to make way for housing, businesses and a new music venue. Groups such as Save Lloyd Center Mall and the Save Lloyd Ice Coalition are holding out hope that a city hearing in June could prevent the mall’s closure, but it seems likely that the Lloyd Center is in its final days. After its last anchor stores shuttered in 2021, the mall’s low rents and large usable space attracted a wide array of community groups and independent retailers. In its last incarnation, the mall became a hub for the kind of quirky community that Portland prides itself on. We’ll listen back to three conversations that capture that recent era: Jason Leivian is the owner of Floating World Comics. We spoke with him in 2022, shortly after he relocated his store from Old Town to the Lloyd Center. In 2023, we talked about a production of Samuel Beckett’s “Happy Days” that was staged in a former Victoria’s Secret store in the Lloyd Center. It was put on by the Northwest Classical Theatre Collaborative, which aims to bring theater to nontraditional spaces. We were joined by director Patrick Walsh, the collaborative’s executive artistic director, and Portland actress Diane Kondrat, who starred as “Winnie” in the play. Finally, Krista Catwood joined us last summer to talk about the Food Court 5000. That’s a 1980s-themed mall walk that Catwood leads every Sunday morning in the Lloyd Center.
Tim Conway Jr. Hour- 4 (5.18.26) Tim welcomes music royalty Charlie Fox into the studio (Tim has known him since he was 12). They dive into Charlie’s incredible career, highlighting his iconic TV theme songs that defined a generation — “Happy Days,” “Laverne & Shirley,” “The Love Boat,” “Wonder Woman,” and “The Paper Chase.” Charlie shares early stories from Hollywood in the ’60s and ’70s. The conversation turns to Charlie’s biggest hits, including writing the Grammy-winning “Killing Me Softly” and composing the original Monday Night Football theme plus the unforgettable “The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat” for Wide World of Sports.

Jason Fraley celebrates the 50th anniversary of Henry Winkler competing for his first Primetime Emmy for his iconic role as The Fonz on the TV sitcom “Happy Days." They spoke in 2016 to promote his NBC reality show “Better Late Than Never,” traveling the globe with William Shatner, Jeff Dye, Terry Bradshaw, and the late George Foreman.

Send us Fan MailSeason 17's halfway to the finish line, and the TGTPTU boys are back from break revving their engines, ready for the next four in their “hack” director line-up. Jack's pick coming in third is Ron Howard, starting with his first film in the big chair, the “smash-‘em-up” smash success (for a Roger Corman feature) GRAND THEFT AUTO (1977). Howard's only feature to co-write or to co-star in as director, the then-Happy Days star cut his teeth on GTA (no relation to the videogame) coming off the success as leading man-boy in the preceding Corman car chase flick Eat My Dust (1976). As part of Howard's deal with Corman, the success of EMD put the boy who once played Opie Taylor in TV's The Andy Griffith's Show in charge of first and second units, stunt coordinators, helicopters, and his kin/fellow actors brother Clint Howard and father Rance Howard—all this on the day after Ron's 23rd birthday. GTA's plot follows young elopers played by Howard and Nacy Morgan (who might be best known as John Ritter's first wife), who've stolen Morgan's father's Rolls-Royce to avoid the pressure of her pseudo-arranged marriage to a rich dweeb. This theft leads Morgan's father, a prominent citizen about to run for major office, to have his security detail retrieve his car (and daughter). Morgan's jilted dweeb upon learning he's not to be betrothed assumes she's been kidnapped and calls a local radio station to put a bounty on her safe return before stealing a car to give chase himself, causing his wealthy mother to call the same station to offer a separate bounty for her son's safe return. From there, cars go crash, clang, boom, and pow. Start peeling off your lead paint and start snacking on its sweet goodness to revel in this 70's film concept of comedy during what the hosts generally agree is a second-screener. This ep, Ryan turns his head cold to his advantage as a radio announcer; Jack reveals this and Solo (2018) are the only Howard movies he's seen prior; and Thomas and Ken recommend (re)listening to the Any Which Way You Can episode and dunk hard on regular Howard collaborating producer Brian Grazer's hair. CORRECTION: Jonathan Demme's film for Roger Corman wasn't Handle with Care (nor was it Woody Allen's Radio Days) but Caged Heat (followed by Crazy Momma) when Demme was giving Howard some Corman-related advice.

80s/90s Comedy/Music/Satire Icon Julie Brown joins us and prepare to mop up some tea! Just exactly how did Julie Brown become an MTV trend setter? She made fun of the videos. Fans loved it and the frenzy gave rise to Julie's very own show, Just Say Julie. We head back to an innocent age when it was still ridiculously ludicrous for the homecoming queen to have a gun. Then we explore the inspiration for Julie's first film, Earth Girls Are Easy. Getting it made, however, was difficult. Julie starred with Gina Davis, Jeff Goldblum and Jim Carrey and the film launched the music videos, Cause I'm A Blonde and I Like ‘Em Big And Stupid. Next, inspired by the outrageous stories she'd hear from friends who had worked with Madonna, Julie parodied Madonna's self absorbed doc-noir, Truth Or Dare, with Medusa: Dare To Be Truthful. We talk about Attack Of The 5'2” Women, with a cameo by our own Lisa Arch, in which Julie roasts headline hogs Tanya Harding and Lorena Bobbitt and we compare notes on 100 Things To Do Before High School on which Julie wrote and Lisa played Principal Hader. And finally, we unleash a rousing round of IMDB Roulette where the wheel stops at Happy Days, The Jeffersons, Newhart, Laverne and Shirley, The Incredible Shrinking Woman, Shakes The Clown, The Middle and Camp Rock. Plus, Weezy and Lisa are recommending and discussing Trust Me: The False Prophet on Netflix.

This week Mea Culpa welcomes the legendary actor, comedian, director, and producer Henry Winkler. Best known for his iconic turn as “The Fonze” on Happy Days and more recently for his Emmy-nominated role on the hit comedy “Barry”, playing beloved acting teacher Gene Cousineau. And before that, he was a staple on “Arrested Development”, “Hank Zipzer” and Winkler even appeared as himself on “Bojack Horseman”. All told, Winkler's accolades include a Primetime Emmy, two Daytime Emmys, two Golden Globes, and a Critics Choice Award. Not bad. He's a Yale “School of Drama” Grad and his acting career spans 6 decades. He has performed in both dramatic and comedic roles, in film television, and on stage. Though one might say he is the quintessential character actor. He's done several pictures with his buddy Adam Sandler including, “Little Nicky” and “Don't Mess with the Zohan” and has continued to collaborate with his “Happy Day”s cohort, Ron Howard. Journalist Michael Schneider said recently, that "the rumors are true," Winkler is "one of the nicest, most genuine men in all of Hollywood.” Michael and Henry Winkler talk about their family life, their careers, and of course politics.
