Podcasts about Hearing loss

Some musicians learn the blues. Others are raised inside it.Today I sit down with Doyle Bramhall II, one of the most distinctive voices in modern blues guitar and contemporary roots music. Raised in Texas as the son of legendary musician Doyle Bramhall, he grew up surrounded by the raw musical energy of the Austin music scene, absorbing the sounds of blues and rock from an early age.Doyle has built a remarkable career as a guitarist, vocalist, composer, and producer, collaborating with artists including Eric Clapton, Elton John, Gary Clark Jr., Dr. John, Gregg Allman, Sheryl Crow, and Erykah Badu. His playing style is instantly recognizable, partly because he plays left-handed with a guitar strung for a right-handed player and flipped upside down.We dive into the fascinating origins of his musical journey, including the moment when a visit from someone special inspired him to take the guitar seriously. Doyle shares his insight into his personal work developing the Ultimate Breakthrough, a process designed to support energetic and consciousness shifts aligned with one's purpose.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[07:53] Growing up inside the Austin blues scene[17:03] How playing guitar upside down led to the Eric Clapton gig[38:54] From the Fabulous Thunderbirds to the Archangels[44:05] How Stevie's death sent Doyle into a two-year heroin spiral[57:51] What made Sly Stone one of the most innovative artists who ever lived[01:23:46] Staying sober while working with plant medicine[01:35:14] The chain of synchronicities that led Doyle from isolation to his life's calling[01:55:23] How Doyle's healing practice works and happens during a session[02:07:55] The three influences that shaped Doyle as a musicianRelated The Life Stylist Episodes:Not Just For Sleep: Melatonin | The Master Molecule + Next Level Biohacks w/ Dr. John Lieurance | PodcastThe Future Of Chronic Pain & Injury Healing W/ Drs.

Students at 16 high schools around the country will have their hearing tested during March; hearing awareness month. The Deaf and Hard of Hearing Foundation's screening programme started with five secondary schools in 2019 and is aiming to reach 100 this year. It's found large numbers of teenagers are experiencing tinnitus or ringing in their ears and many of them are plugged into headphone or earbuds for hours everyday. Deaf and Hard of Hearing Foundation chief executive Natasha Gallardo spoke to Lisa Owen.

Send a textThe quietest moments often matter most—like a morning “good day” you can't hear or a whispered joke that never lands. We sat down with writer and hearing loss advocate, Gael Hannan, to explore how hearing loss reshapes intimacy and what it takes to bring ease back into everyday connection. From the first minutes of the day to late-night check-ins, she shows why small, intentional shifts can rebuild closeness when spontaneity fades.Gael breaks down “purpose-driven communication,” a practical way to design conversations so they actually work: devices on, lights up, noise down, faces visible, and a pace that respects processing time. We talk about rituals that reduce friction—no talking until connected, choosing quieter corners, planning short debriefs—and why structure can restore the very flow couples miss. She shares candid stories that resonate: the temptation to remove a hearing aid during physical intimacy, a partner's gentle push to keep it in, and how that single request deepened safety, feedback, and mutual presence.We dive into the power of nonverbal communication—touch, eye contact, posture—and how visual cues carry meaning when words drop out. Gael's humor (yes, including the glow-in-the-dark lipstick misadventure) makes room for real solutions, from remote microphones to simple environmental tweaks. Beyond devices, we highlight the role of aural rehabilitation, community support, and clinicians who ask the right questions about home life, partners, and the moments that matter. The goal shifts from perfect hearing to shared understanding, which is where intimacy truly lives.If hearing loss has introduced distance in your relationship, this conversation offers a way back: be present, don't bluff, create quiet spaces, and make connection the point.

Tinnitus is the perception of ringing, buzzing, or hissing in the ears without an external sound source, and it is often associated with hearing loss caused by aging, loud noise exposure, ear infections, or inner ear damage. Radio Life & Style on Facebook

Send a textA high-pitched dental drill and suction shouldn't drown out the most important sound in the room: a patient's voice. Blaise Delfino sits down with Dr. Michael Walker (dentist) and Dr. Jamie Hand (audiologist) to unravel how modern hearing protection can quiet drills and suction without muting crucial communication, and why tinnitus may be the first warning sign long before a hearing test shows a shift. The result is a practical, evidence-informed guide for anyone working in a noisy environment. First, we compare everyday foam or silicone plugs with active devices like SoundGear Phantoms. You'll hear what changes chairside when the noise floor drops but speech is preserved: faster coordination with assistants, fewer breaks to de-glove, and smoother, safer procedures. We dig into real-world workflow differences across restorative and surgical cases, and how open-bay designs compound exposure when multiple tools run at once.Next, we unpack fresh survey findings from hundreds of dentists that reveal a striking pattern: tinnitus reports are higher than expected even when self-reported hearing loss seems average. We explore why delayed testing and ultra-high-frequency damage can mask early decline, making tinnitus a critical cue for prevention. From cumulative exposure science to the limits of standard audiometry, we outline what professionals should watch for and how to act sooner.Finally, we get tactical. We talk fit, comfort, and hygiene, and lay out when to choose active hearing protection for continuous communication versus passive, high‑fidelity options or semi-insert bands for assistants on the move. We also highlight a culture shift in training: pairing dental and audiology programs to normalize protection, teach proper fitting, and make hearing health part of everyday PPE.If you practice in a noisy clinic—or care about someone who does—this is your playbook for protecting hearing without sacrificing clarity or care.

Welcome back to Birds of a Feather Talk Together—and welcome to our first new episode of 2026! After wrapping up our deep dive into ducks, we're kicking off the new year by doing something a little different: each of us brings a favorite science story from 2025 to the table, along with a look ahead at what we're most excited about in 2026.Join John Bates, Shannon Hackett, RJ Pole, and Amanda Pole for a wide-ranging conversation. We talk about juncos, robots in science, and how new research is shaping the way we study birds and understand the natural world.This episode also features a meaningful and candid update from Shannon on her cochlear implant surgery—how hearing restoration technology has impacted her daily life, her work as a scientist, and the way she experiences sound in her every day life. If you're a cochlear implant recipient, hearing-aid user, audiology professional, or someone interested in accessibility in science, this conversation offers a personal and insightful perspective you won't want to miss.As always, there's plenty of bird talk, thoughtful science discussion, and a sense of curiosity about where the next year will take us—both personally and professionally.Here are links to our social and YouTube pages, give us a follow: YouTube Instagram TikTok BlueSky

Send us a textA quieter problem carries loud consequences: when hearing loss goes untreated, risks rise for cognitive decline, cardiovascular strain, and falls. We pull that chain into the light and show how one change—adopting hearing technology earlier—can shift the long‑term outlook. With better devices, rising satisfaction, and less stigma, the path to clearer sound and stronger health is getting shorter and friendlier.We walk through fresh insights from MarkeTrak 2025, including how consumers perceive prescription hearing aids, what over‑the‑counter devices get right, and where they fall short. The data is clear: satisfaction is high across the board, but loyal users value the guidance of a hearing care professional, especially for the hardest tasks—accurate assessment, the right device selection, and real troubleshooting. We explore why counseling and expectation setting matter as much as hardware, and how theory of mind helps clinicians solve problems that algorithms miss, like clarity in noise and the fatigue of constant listening effort.Access still matters, and OTC can be a smart on‑ramp—if it connects people to support when they need it. That's where community steps in. Friends, family, and colleagues influence the first move, while clinics can demystify the journey with quick, transparent demos of an annual hearing test. We share practical ways to normalize hearing care as part of total well‑being—physical, emotional, and mental—so taking action feels positive and routine.

This week, Bobbi Conner talks with MUSC's Dr. Peter Dixon about the impact of hearing loss on quality of life and overall health.

What if the most exhausting part of your faith wasn't doubt, but the checklist you thought God required? We sit down with author and mentor Desiree Taylor to explore how progressive hearing loss, social hurdles, and a lifetime in church led her from rule-keeping to a relationship marked by grace, courage, and advocacy. Desiree opens up about growing up deaf, navigating school with hearing aids and later cochlear implants, and how lip-reading sharpened her attention to people's hearts. She also shares the emotional weight of genetics, the ache of passing hearing loss to a child, and the honest “why me?” questions that became her doorway to deeper trust.The conversation moves into the gap many feel between religion and a living encounter with God. Desiree describes years of shame and perfectionism, the pressure to perform spiritually, and the moment she finally brought her grief to God and discovered a gentler truth. From there, Scripture came alive, identity took root, and the lie of “I'm always failing” lost its power. We tie those insights to church life today, naming practical ways communities can include people with disabilities—clear communication, intentional eye contact, planned accessibility—and why culture change means more than a one-time fix.Desiree's new book, Created to Relate: Living Beyond Religion, blends memoir and reflection with questions that help readers examine what they believe about God, themselves, and others. She talks about the long writing journey, the choice to mentor young adults, and the vision behind her website that features disability stories and resources. Whether you're navigating hearing loss, advocating for inclusion, or longing for faith that feels personal and free, you'll find honest guidance and grounded hope.

Everyone knows that with hearing loss, you can miss parts of conversations. But did you know that untreated hearing loss can cause faster cognitive decline, increased dementia risk, and brain atrophy?  Jeffrey Bellomo sits down with licensed hearing specialist Kathleen Scheydt of Hearing Life to discuss why early testing and treatment for hearing loss protect your ability to communicate with confidence and connect with your loved ones.  Kathleen describes modern hearing tests and how the results of speech testing reveal the importance of understanding what is being said. You'll also learn that many of us don't even realize that we're suffering from hearing loss because it can creep up slowly, often for years, before we realize there's a problem.  Hearing Life is committed to community programs that lower cost barriers for those struggling financially.

Send us a textA birth surprise. A scramble for answers. And a mother who refused to accept “good enough” when her daughter's hearing—and future—were on the line. We sit down with EarCommunity.org founder Melissa Tumblin to unpack microtia, aural atresia, and the real costs of unilateral hearing loss that too often go unseen: delayed speech, safety risks, and the daily strain of listening with one ear in a noisy world.We walk through the early months—ABR testing, confusing terminology, and the long wait to discover bone conduction hearing devices that bypass the outer and middle ear. Melissa shares the moment Ally's device switched on and the room changed, along with the aided audiograms that moved from loss to the normal range. From there we zoom out: how to practice at the top of scope as clinicians, when to refer, and what families need to know about candidacy for bone-anchored systems, CROS, and cochlear implants.The story widens into advocacy. Coverage denials are common for people with atresia and unilateral loss, even when a device is medically necessary. Melissa explains Ally's Act—a bipartisan, bicameral bill that would require private insurance coverage for bone-anchored systems and cochlear implants, including fittings, programming, surgery, post-op care, therapy options, and five-year upgrades for qualified patients up to age 64. We discuss the small but significant population at stake, the path in Congress, and how families and professionals can help: share your story, contact lawmakers, and close the loophole that keeps people from the hearing tech they need.If you're a parent new to microtia and atresia, you'll find reassurance and practical steps. If you're a clinician, you'll find a call to raise awareness and make the right referrals. And if you care about access, you'll hear how a single family's journey became a movement for equity in hearing health.

On today's Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…Host Doug Stephan and Dr. Ken Kronhaus of Lake Cardiology (352-735-1400) cover a number of topics affecting our health. First up, Doug and Dr. Ken discuss the biggest news stories in the medical world, starting with new research on early Alzheimer's warnings, particularly for those with hearing loss. This news continues to emphasize the importance of getting your hearing tested, especially if your loved ones point out you aren't hearing them (since many don't want to acknowledge hearing issues themselves). Additionally, a study suggested listening to music may lower your rate of dementia. Because there is no cure for dementia, prevention is important. Listening to music is helpful, and playing an instrument is even better. Next up, a new blood test can help diagnose the severity of head trauma when a concussion occurs, good news out of the Mayo Clinic looking at a minor procedure to get a stint in a blood vessel instead of a major surgery with the carotid artery, and the benefits of a low-dose aspirin for heart health in some (it is no longer universally recommended), and how it is also being shown to help diabetic patients specifically.Moving on, there's new data on coffee consumption, looking at drinking one cup of caffeinated coffee per day may significantly lower a person's risk of recurrent A-Fib episodes by as much as 39%. Rounding out the conversation, Doug and Dr. Ken answer listener questions, including colitis flare ups post-Thanksgiving indulgence, as well as causes and symptoms, in addition to foods that have microplastics in them at a higher rate than ever before. Those foods include sea salt, beer, shellfish, rice, apples, carrots, even tea. Now, the question begs, is this enough to be causing harm, or is this just a measurement used as a scare tactic. Doug and Dr. Ken discuss.  Website: GoodDayHealthrShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

My guest is Dr. Jennifer Groh, PhD, professor of psychology and neuroscience at Duke University. She explains how our brain encodes sights and sounds and integrates them so we can navigate and understand the world around us. She explains what thoughts really are and how what you focus on determines your thoughts, not just in that moment but your future thoughts too. We discuss this in the context of how to improve your level of focus and happiness and how to complete tasks and task-switch more effectively. We also discuss how you can rewire the neural circuits that underlie your default patterns of thinking and attention.

Send us a textDementia is rising, and the toll is personal, social, and economic. From there, we move into a conversation that blends hard data with real life—how hearing loss can quietly erode connection, increase cognitive load, and, according to leading research, contribute to higher dementia risk. Karla Hult joins us with her father's story—an athlete, a community helper, a devoted dad whose final years were shaped by Alzheimer's—and shows how love, grief, and action can coexist without false hope.We break down what the science actually says. The Lancet Commission identifies hearing loss as a leading midlife, modifiable risk factor for dementia. The ACHIEVE study adds nuance: while not all participants saw cognitive gains, a high‑risk subgroup (older adults with cardiovascular risk) experienced significant preservation across cognitive measures when using hearing aids. Everyone, though, benefited socially—less loneliness and richer networks—reminding us that better hearing is not just about volume, it's about vitality. We also demystify genetics and testing: APOE-e4 indicates risk, not destiny, and newer blood tests detect disease only after it starts. That context helps listeners choose action over anxiety.This conversation is practical. We talk about cognitive load at noisy restaurants, the “cocktail party” effect, and how chronic listening strain pushes people to opt out of the moments that keep brains active. We tackle stigma head-on: today's hearing aids are discreet, smart, and designed for real life. For clinicians, we offer a compassionate playbook—lead with connection, avoid cure claims, suggest appropriate cognitive screening, and never leave families without resources. For anyone with family history or early signs of hearing trouble, the message is clear: protect your connections. Get a hearing check, consider amplification when needed, and double down on heart‑brain health habits that keep you engaged with the people and places you love.If this conversation resonates, follow the show, share it with someone who needs it, and leave a review to help others find these insights.

If Broadway had a heartbeat, Alex Lacamoire might be it. You probably know him as the Grammy, Emmy, and Tony Award-winning musical genius behind Hamilton, Dear Evan Hansen, In the Heights, and The Greatest Showman. This week, we are beyond grateful to welcome him to Laugh Lines!Penn and I are lucky enough to call Alex and his wife, Ileana, our friends. In this episode, we go behind the scenes of his journey—from a Miami kid with a hand-me-down piano to a Broadway legend. We talk about how he sees music in colors (yes, synesthesia is real!), why lifting others up matters just as much as creating unforgettable scores, and how he's overcome incredible odds. Born with significant hearing loss, Alex has gone on to orchestrate and arrange some of the most iconic music of our generation.Oh—and did I mention we sing? A lot. From The Muppets to Broadway, Alex graciously humors us as everything turns into a sing-along (and even shares a keyboard with Penn). We adore Alex, and after listening, we think you will too.

Join us in this episode as we dive into the science of tinnitus management with Dr. Ben Thompson, an audiologist and the founder of Treble Health. Eager to serve those with hearing loss and tinnitus, Dr. Thompson and his team have helped more than 5,000 patients and enrolled more than 2,000 people in their comprehensive treatment program – completely transforming the future of tinnitus care and education… This conversation touches on: How Dr. Thompson got into the field of audiology.  The cognitive stress that hearing loss often causes.  The age at which most people start to notice issues with their hearing. Where tinnitus comes from.  Dr. Thompson completed his audiology residency at UCSF Medical Center, where he trained under leading tinnitus experts, including Dr. Pawel Jastreboff, founder of Tinnitus Retraining Therapy. With years of clinical experience and hundreds of patients treated, he is dedicated to advancing tinnitus care.  In 2020, he launched a YouTube channel sharing practical tinnitus advice, which has grown to over 140,000 subscribers and 20 million views, making it one of the top online resources for tinnitus education.
