Today, Hunter spoke with Heather Rogers and Caitlin Becker of the Santa Cruz County Public Defenders. In 2020, the Sixth Amendment Center put together a report detailing the severe issues with how Santa Cruz County provided Public Defense. At the time, a law firm was working a flat rate fee contract to provide public defender services in the county. As is expected, that system was deeply flawed and couldn't meet the demands of the Sixth Amendment. Fast forward five years, Heather, Caitlin, and the team at the Santa Cruz County Public Defender has transformed the office into a comprehensive holistic defender program. How did that happen? What are the benefits of this model? All those questions and more on today's episode!

Join us for a deep dive into the necessity for pre procedure and post procedure skincare with double board certified Dermatologist , Dr Heather Rogers. We dive into the recent rebranding and new packaging upgrade and how Doctor Rogers Skincare is proving itself to be a strong contender in the clutter of the current skin health industry by relying on tried and true ingredients meant to heal rather than exacerbate the delicate balance of the skin's natural physiology. Dr. Rogers' first love is practicing medicine, but after decades of seeing widespread confusion about skin care she wanted to be a voice of reason in the beauty industry. She started challenging misleading claims and sharing her unbiased recommendations on YouTube, Instagram, and her blog. Unlike other influencers, she will not do sponsored ads. Her recommendations are based solely on her extensive research and clinical experience. Unusual in this frankness, she quickly became a trusted expert for beauty editors with regular features in national press.A constant challenge was finding effectiveproducts to recommend to her patients and the press for sensitive and aging skin. The options were the old guard of hypoallergenic, but not sustainable products versus the new “clean” brands claiming sustainability, but using more fragrance and other common allergens that sensitive skin cannot tolerate. Driven to meet this need, Dr. Rogers created her namesake line of fewer, expertly formulated products that are simultaneously effective, safe and sustainable.

If your skincare routine is more complicated than a fishtail French braid (or takes even one tenth of the tie to complete), you’re definitely overdoing it and may even be doing more harm than good. According to Dr. Heather Rogers, a board-certified dermatologist, you only need five products to effectively prevent damage, increase cell turnover and slow the aging process. She breaks down the only 5 items you need in a skincare routine, and shares her favorite products. We say it’s great advice for our faces and our finances.

The beauty industry takes in almost 50 billion dollars a year, and that’s in the U.S. alone. With promises of more youthful, firmer and brighter skin, it’s no wonder we flock to buy the latest products and seek out the buzziest new ingredients. But according the Dr. Heather Rogers, you may have been duped – and she’s not afraid to tell you why. We’ll talk about why using multiple products can actual be harmful, and why expensive doesn’t always equal results. She’ll also share the best way to get rid of sunspots, how to lessen the appearance of scars, and the skincare regimen and ingredients to get proven results.

Join Dustin Portela (Between Two Derms) and Doctor Heather Rogers as they talk about her experience as a dermatologist and the world of skincare. They get into how simple dermatology can be for you, how to spend less on skincare with the same results, and how multipurpose items may not be the best option for you. Heather also talks about starting her skincare line, the products she has available, and how she uses them for her patients. Stay tuned to know the three things that are vital to skincare! By the end of the episode, you will learn that beauty doesn’t need to be complicated and understand the value your promised before buying any product or before having any procedure. ~ About Doctor Rogers: Dr. Rogers attended Stanford University & The University of Washington School of Medicine. She headed east to NYC for her dermatology residency at Columbia University Medical Center where she served as chief resident. She then completed two procedural dermatology fellowships with extensive training in Mohs micrographic surgery, surgical reconstruction, laser procedures and aesthetics. She remained on faculty at Columbia until returning to Seattle in 2009. She lectures nationally, has published numerous articles and book chapters and is an active member of the American Academy of Dermatology Media Expert Team. Dr. Rogers’ skin care regime includes an antioxidant then moisturizer and sunscreen with at least 10 percent zinc oxide to her face, neck and chest every morning. Nightly, she washes her face with a gentle cleanser, applies a retinol product, then a moisturizer. She is not married to a single brand line and believes that the best results are achieved when a variety of clinically-proven active ingredients are used regularly on the skin. #HELPTHEHEALERS campaign Like most independent brands, RESTORE had a give-back program whereby each year it donates tubes of its Healing Balm to cancer hospitals for patients to use post-radiation. In March, when a Seattle nurse emailed Dr. Rogers for a recommendation to cure her dry hands, RESTORE decided to donate 10k tubes of Healing Balm to frontline healthcare workers. Additionally, RESTORE donated one hundred tubes to the only Navy dermatologist treating patients and healthcare workers at the Javits Center who were suffering from sores on their faces from wearing masks. The requests from healthcare workers and other frontline individuals continue to pour in so RESTORE has vowed to donate another 10k tubes in the coming weeks.

Heather Rogers, co-owner of Modern Dermatology and the Founder of Doctor Rogers RESTORE shares everything from her childhood days of getting bullied to what products everyone should be using on their skin. Heather’s knowledge on dermatology is unmatched. She opened Modern Dermatology in 2015 and has dedicated her work life to making sure she provides the best care to her patients. While running her practice, her dissatisfaction with the selection of products for healing skin led her to also research and create her own line, Doctor Rogers RESTORE. Her plant-based, hypoallergenic Healing Balm beat out its competitor, Aquaphor in skin healing and patient satisfaction during a split face trial. Her entire skin care line is effective, safe and sustainable. RESTORE is available at beauty retailers including NET-A-PORTER, VIOLET GREY, Revolve, Dermstore, Cos Bar and Credo Beauty as well as dermatology offices across the country. During this episode, you’ll hear about Heather’s journey through school, how she found dermatology and what the process has been like starting and running two companies at the same time. She also talks about the influence her sister’s death has had on her, the importance of human connection and how her busy schedule is making her be more intentional with the way she spends her time.

Fukushima. Chernobyl. Three Mile Island. There’s been some big nuclear accidents over the past few decades, but how dangerous is nuclear power really? We take you inside the core of America’s biggest nuclear power plant and trace what went wrong at Fukushima to try to figure out: when will the next meltdown happen? And what our chances are of getting cancer from it? This week we talk to Dr. Spencer Wheatley, Dr. Jonathan Samet, and Jack Cadogan, an executive at the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station. UPDATE! We’ve made a couple of small changes to this episode, thank you to all the listeners who picked up on them. 1. We called the energy that comes from nuclear power a chemical reaction… it’s not. It’s a nuclear reaction. Chemical reactions involve the electrons in an atom. Nuclear reactions involve the nucleus. 2. We said that the Joker became The Joker After falling into a vat of radioactive waste. This is disputed. It seems it was a vat chemicals.. But what those chemicals were , that’s unclear. 3. A clarification: We said that the waste that nuclear power produces in the US… 2200 metric tons per year… was like 323 male African Elephants. That was a weight comparison. They weigh roughly the same… It wasn’t a three dimensional size comparison. Nuclear waste is much denser than an elephant, and so it takes up much less room. And if you want to read the most amazing calculation from an academic of how much bigger 323 African Elephants are in 3D space you’ve got to sign up to our brand spanking new newsletter! To do that head to https://gimletmedia.com/newsletter/ And FINALLY! We got a lot of feedback from that episode that listeners really wanted to hear how nuclear power compares to other energy sources: like coal, solar and wind! Now we decided that to do a fair comparison that really needs it’s own episode - it wasn’t as simple as just throwing out some numbers. So we’re working on that episode for next season.

Silicon Valley CEOs, Tibetan monks, and crunchy hippies alike describe meditation as blissful and life-changing, but what does the science say? Can it reduce stress, increase your attention, and improve mental health -- or is all this focus on breathing just a bunch of hot air? Sit back, get comfortable, and focus your mind as we talk to Tim Ferriss, Professor Gaelle Desbordes, Dr. Clifford Saron, and Dr. Britta Hölzel. Please note: we have updated this episode. We removed a reference to Peter Thiel, the founder of Paypal. He was a guest on Tim Ferriss' show, but didn't discuss whether he meditates.

Abortion is so taboo. People don’t talk about abortions they’ve had. Doctors don’t talk about abortions they’ve given. But it's happening a lot. Almost a million abortions happened in the US in 2014. So, what actually happens in an abortion, can the fetus feel pain and what are the risks? To find out we visit an abortion clinic in Texas and talk to Dr. Amita Murthy, Dr. Lisa Harris, Dr. Bhavik Kumar, and Dr. Diana Greene Foster.

Science Vs peels back the label on GM foods to find out whether they’re safe to eat and what impact they can have on the environment. Both sides of the debate have written impassioned songs, but what does the science say? We talk to Prof. Fred Gould, Dr. Janet Cotter, and Prof. David Douches to find out. ***Please note*** this episode has been updated. In the original version we suggested that the Bt corn that killed monarch caterpillars was taken off the market as a direct result of studies demonstrating its harm. But although the corn was eventually taken off the market, the company that made it later told us it was phased out "for business reasons", such as declining sales -- and they did not mention the dead butterflies.

In last week’s episode, we learned that around 30,000 Americans die each year from guns. This week, we examine possible solutions. Do better background checks, buybacks, and gun registration lead to fewer shooting deaths? What happened in Australia after they got rid of all the guns? To find out, we talk to gun shop owner Bob Kostaras, former ATF special agent Mark Jones, Prof. Philip Alpers, and Prof. Peter Squires.

The gun lobby says firearms keep us safe by protecting us against bad guys and reducing the crime rate. But, what does the science say? We find out how many times a year guns are used in self-defense, how many times they’re used to murder someone, and what impact guns have on the crime rate. To do that, we speak with Prof. David Hemenway, Prof. Helen Christensen, Prof. Gary Kleck and New Jersey gun-range owner Anthony Colandro.

Judy, a mother of two young kids, practices a demanding style of child-rearing. It’s called attachment parenting, and it says you should keep your baby close at all times, breastfeed on demand, share your bed, and avoid strollers.

We often hear stories about fracking that go like this: a gas company comes to a small town, starts drilling wells, and then terrible things start to happen. People get sick. Water burns from taps. Earthquakes ruin houses. And the climate will soon be destroyed. But, is fracking really a disaster unfolding? To find out, Science Vs speaks to Prof. Robert Jackson, Asst. Prof. Peter Rabinowitz and Prof. Bob Howarth. We’re also joined by Pennsylvanian resident James Hughes and Seneca Resources’ Rob Boulware and Doug Kepler.
