Podcasts about HIV

In this episode of Words With Wista, we're unpacking Trump calling the affordability crisis a “hoax” while the data tells a very different story, tourists being asked to submit five years of social media history to visit the U.S., and multiple devastating tragedies from Brown University to Australia's Bondi Beach that raise serious questions about safety and accountability. We also get into the rising cases of HIV in NYC, Busta Rhymes checking a TikToker, a University of Michigan football scandal that reportedly led to an arrest, and an OnlyFans creator facing major legal trouble overseas. Plus, Jason Derulo rewriting his personal rules post-lawsuit, Beyoncé and friends stepping into Met Gala 2026 leadership, Russell Simmons responding to Kimora Lee Simmons, a jaw-dropping $2.5M NYC restaurant scheme, and the shocking passing of Rob Reiner and his wife. Heavy news, loud celebrities, and the mess in between. IG: itswista IG/SubStack: wordswithwista

How Improving Healthcare For People With Disabilities Helps Everyone Special Olympics is working to close major gaps in healthcare for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. A new global report reveals widespread problems – from poor provider training to communication barriers – that prevent individuals with IDD from receiving informed, respectful, and effective care.

In this episode, we dive into three critical conversations shaping Pennsylvania’s political, economic, and public-health landscape. (00:00:00) First, Angela Couloumbis of Spotlight PA joins us to discuss her reporting on the use of taxpayer dollars for security upgrades at Governor Josh Shapiro’s private residence. She explains what her investigation uncovered, why the spending matters, and how it fits into larger questions of transparency and public trust. Then, we turn to national politics with Roger DuPuis of WVIA, who breaks down former President Trump’s recent visit to northeastern Pennsylvania and his messaging on the economy. Roger shares on-the-ground insights, voter reactions, and what this visit signals heading into the election season. (00:22:28) Finally, we shift to community health with Kirsten Burkhart, Executive Director of AIDS Resource and Founder & Executive Director of AR Health. Kirsten traces the organization’s evolution from its founding in 1988, providing compassionate support for individuals dying from AIDS in Lycoming County, to its current role as a comprehensive primary-care provider for people living with HIV and members of the LGBTQIA2S+ community. She highlights ongoing challenges, expanded services, and the life-saving work happening in Williamsport, State College, and beyond.

Applyo Jena is building a freeze-dried future, one bead at a time. In this episode, Dr. Hanno Hermann and Dr. Thanh Tu Hellmich-Duong walk us through how their lyo-bead technology emerged from the challenges of field-based HIV diagnostics and evolved into a flexible platform that stabilizes everything from enzymes to magnetic nanoparticles, without the need for refrigeration.From diagnostics research to therapeutics, this lyophilization platform is solving key pain points in reagent formulation, shipping, and field use. Hanno and Thanh Tu explain how lyo-beads offer precise, single-use reagent doses with near-instantaneous rehydration, minimal batch-to-batch variability, and extended ambient temperature stability. Whether it's for isothermal RT-LAMP, next-gen sequencing prep, or phage-based application, Applyo's platform unlocks new formats, simplifies logistics, and lowers the environmental burden of molecular workflows.With new hires, new markets, and new product lines on the horizon, Applyo Jena is poised for a decade of growth and maybe even a hand in reshaping the way freeze-dried pharmaceuticals are developed and delivered.

You've solved other problems in the past. You can solve this one.Millions of people worldwide face the devastating impact of cancer, with countless lives lost each year to tumors that no longer respond to existing treatments. Dr. Dale Walker, Co-founder and CEO of The Burlington HC Research Group (BHCRG), is working to change that narrative with her groundbreaking development of a new family of anti-cancer drugs. These drugs have the potential to revolutionize treatment for cancers that have become resistant to current therapies.“We tested our drugs against 15 human cancer cell lines, representative of seven different tissues, and the drug works against all of them,” Dale explained. In the U.S. alone, over 600,000 people die annually from cancer, often because their tumors no longer respond to treatment. Dale's research offers a glimmer of hope for patients and their families.Unlike traditional drug development that focuses on a single compound, Dale and her team have created a family of drugs—called BRG drugs—by combining two FDA-approved ingredients in a novel way. These drugs not only enhance the effectiveness of existing cancer treatments but also demonstrate the ability to kill nearly all cancer cells after a single dose in preclinical studies. “Most anti-cancer agents just slow tumor growth. Ours hit both marks—killing tumor cells at a safe dose level,” she said.With such promising results, Dale and her husband Vernon, who co-leads the research, are pushing forward. However, taking these drugs through the necessary safety and efficacy tests requires significant funding. To accelerate progress, BHCRG is raising capital through a regulated crowdfunding campaign on the FundingHope platform. Crowdfunding offers a faster alternative to traditional funding sources, enabling the Walkers to bypass lengthy government grant timelines.“Crowdfunding is a lifeline. We have family members and friends with cancer. We can't wait years,” Dale shared. For investors, the opportunity to back a potential game-changing cancer therapy is compelling, both for its societal impact and long-term financial potential.Dale's passion and perseverance shine through in her work. Her innovative approach to drug development could save countless lives. Supporting her mission on Funding Hope isn't just an investment in a company—it's an investment in hope.tl;dr:Dale Walker shares her innovative work on new anti-cancer drugs targeting resistant tumors.BHCRG's BRG drugs show promising preclinical results, killing almost all tumor cells with one dose.Dale explains crowdfunding's role in accelerating drug development for life-saving cancer treatments.She discusses perseverance as her superpower, solving challenges by embracing and examining problems.Today's episode highlights how crowdfunding enables investors to support impactful innovations in healthcare.How to Develop Perseverance in Problem-Solving As a SuperpowerDale's superpower is her extraordinary ability to solve complex problems and persevere through challenges. In today's episode, she explained, “When I run into a problem, the first thing I have to do is tell myself, don't be afraid. You've solved other problems in the past. You can solve this one.” Dale emphasized that problems often contain valuable information that leads to solutions, encouraging others to examine challenges closely rather than avoiding them.After discovering that an FDA-approved drug had antiviral activity, Dale faced a seemingly insurmountable challenge: making the drug work effectively in people. “I thought, I will not be able to solve this problem. It's too hard,” she admitted. Yet, she persevered, combining the drug with another FDA-approved ingredient. This breakthrough created the BRG family of cancer drugs, which kill nearly all cancer cells in preclinical studies after a single dose. Her ability to persist through doubt and difficulty exemplifies her superpower.Tips for Developing Perseverance in Problem-Solving:Acknowledge Your Strengths: Remind yourself that you've solved tough problems before and can do it again.Examine Problems Closely: Instead of avoiding challenges, look for clues within the problem itself to guide solutions.Break Down the Problem: Address each component of the challenge one step at a time.Stay Focused: Resist the urge to pivot too quickly; often, solutions lie in persistence.Find Inspiration: Remember the impact your work can have on others to stay motivated.By following Dale's example and advice, you can make perseverance in problem-solving a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileDale M. Walker (she/her):Co-founder, owner, and Chief Executive Officer, The Burlington HC Research Group, Inc. (BHCRG)About The Burlington HC Research Group, Inc. (BHCRG): BHCRG is working to advance a new family of investigational drugs called BRG Therapeutics. Based on pre-clinical studies, two members of this family show potent anticancer activity across human cancer cell lines representing seven different tissues of origin, including lung cancer (four subtypes), prostate cancer (three types), triple-negative breast cancer (two types), ovarian cancer (two types), pancreatic cancer (one type), pleural mesothelioma (two types), and pre-myeloblastic leukemia (one type, tested with a single BRG drug). In tissue-culture models, BRG drugs demonstrate an unusually strong ability to eliminate nearly all cancer cells after a single dose while achieving this result at doses that are non-toxic to normal human cells. Each BRG drug delivers two active ingredients, and the primary component (ingredient #1) also inhibits the replication of viruses spanning all three major viral genome classes—DNA viruses, RNA viruses, and reverse-transcribing/retroviruses—with activity shown in vitro against influenza, COVID-19, HIV, and Ebola and other viruses. Although such breadth is uncommon and has led some observers to believe no drug could achieve these effects, the evidence shows that the human body naturally produces several essential compounds with similarly broad anticancer and antiviral functions; BRG drugs work through analogous biochemical mechanisms but produce stronger effects in controlled laboratory studies. These naturally occurring comparators include N-acetylcysteine, glutathione, and vitamin C (only at pharmacologic doses). Taken together, BRG Therapeutics represents a next-generation, multi-targeted approach designed to overcome one of the central limitations of modern oncology—drug resistance—by restoring normal cellular regulation, reactivating p53, correcting redox imbalance, and neutralizing reactive species to selectively eliminate cancer cells while preserving healthy tissue.Website: bhcrg.comCompany Facebook Page: facebook.com/profile.php?id=61584197824692Other URL: invest.fundinghope.com/offering/brg/detailsBiographical Information: My husband Vernon and I work together as a team, and we have advanced BRG therapeutics to their present state of development by collaboration. We both are veterinarians with advanced training in pathology, so that make us ‘veterinary pathologists'. Vernon also has a PhD in experimental and molecular pathology. What many people do not know is that veterinary pathologists have key roles in drug development and safety testing. Before the discovery of the BRG drugs, most of our work focused on health risks from human exposures to environmental, workplace, or medicinal agents/compounds. We were working with BRG active ingredient #1, which is FDA-approved as the active form of a cell protective drug – that means that it protects normal cells from the damaging effects of radiation and some chemicals. We were testing the ability of this agent to protect normal cells from the deleterious effects of some of the first drugs like AZT developed to treat HIV. We were surprised to learn that this cell protective drug had antiviral activity all on its own. Even though this active ingredient had been around for several decades, no one had ever reported these results before we did. We soon learned why we were the first to make this discovery - the active ingredient of this cell protective drug worked well in tissue culture as an antiviral agent, but antiviral effects were not achieved in living animals. This sent us on a long road figuring out why this was – after all, this agent worked to protect normal cells in living animals and people, so why would it not work as an antiviral agent in the same animals and people? It actually took several years to understand the nature of the problems, and even more time to figure out a solution. That solution was the BRG therapeutics.Vernon and I had little experience studying viruses, and much more experience studying cancer and anticancer drugs, and we knew that this active ingredient had anticancer activity, so we decided to start with testing a BRG drug as an anticancer agent. Our first experiment in a human, pre-myeloblastic leukemia cell line showed us anticancer effects beyond anything that we could have imagined. We were so excited, but we still had a long journey of work and discovery ahead of us. To date we have tested two BRG drugs and they kill cancer cells in all human cancer cell lines tested to date (one drug tested in 15 human cancers, the other tested in 14). A paper summarizing these results was published in 2023.LinkedIn Profile: linkedin.com/in/dale-m-walker-bhcrgPersonal Facebook Profile: facebook.com/profile.php?id=61556212335476Support Our SponsorsOur generous sponsors make our work possible, serving impact investors, social entrepreneurs, community builders and diverse founders.

This year, for the first time since it was established in 1988, the U.S. did not commemorate World AIDS Day on December 1. That's despite more than 630,000 deaths from HIV-related illnesses in 2024, according to the World Health Organization. This week, we're traveling back in time, to visit a queer church that provided refuge and support to San Francisco's gay community during the height of the AIDS crisis. We're bringing you the first episode of a new podcast called We All Get To Heaven, which draws on sound from 1,200 cassette tapes – recordings of songs, memorials, and sermons from the Metropolitan Community Church.  It brings to life voices of loss, and of faith, of people who refused to abandon their spirituality or their queerness, and who built a community that could hold both.

Kurt Bramer from Advanced CPR Solutions returns again this week to continue the series on Head-Up CPR and other promising sudden cardiac arrest treatments. There are three previous episodes in this series. Elevated CPR Series Episode One Elevated CPR Series Episode Two Elevated CPR Series Episode Three After the severe weather update from disaster meteorologist Dan DePodwin, the Disaster Podcast team focuses on the science and physiology of Head-Up CPR. They ask why this approach provides for better protection of neurological function during a cardiac arrest. Dr. Joe Holley does an excellent job of describing the specific concepts of pressure gradients in blood flow to and from the heart during CPR in various patient positions. Kurt outlines what he calls the Four Rules of Head-Up CPR that are essential components for successful resuscitation during cardiac arrest treatment. These rules come from Dr. Joanna Moore’s Editorial The Do’s and Don’ts of Head Up CPR: 1) Use of Suction Cup CPR and an ITD 2) A Priming Period is Needed 3) Cannot Lift the Patient Too High 4) You Cannot Lift the Patient Too Quickly CARES Registry for Cardiac Arrest Stats Follow up on more of these segments as we continue to look at the current research trends in future episodes and what is on the horizon for the future. The episode was co-hosted by Sam Bradley and Jamie Davis. Scroll down for Podcast Discussion Summary Thank you as always to Paragon Medical Education Group for their long-term support of the Disaster Podcast. Dr. Joe Holley and the team at Paragon continue to provide excellent and customized disaster response training to jurisdictions around the U.S. and internationally as well. Podcast Discussion Summary Episode Opening segment and Weather update The meeting began with a discussion about travel weather for the country and record cold in many parts of the upper midwest and northeast with Dan DePodwin. The group then transitioned to their main topic, the physiology of CPR, with Dr. Joe Holley focusing our attention on the specific anatomy and process inside the body during CPR. Head-Up CPR Techniques Discussed Kurt and Joe discussed the importance of adhering to the “four rules” of head-up CPR, which were derived from a published editorial by Dr. Moore. They emphasized that studies showing no improved outcomes often violate these rules, highlighting the significance of proper technique. Jamie Davis, the host of the Disaster Podcast, introduced the episode, which would focus on the science and physiology of elevated CPR, while Sam and Dan briefly discussed the early winter weather conditions across the United States. Head-Up CPR Research Advances The discussion focused on head-up CPR, a novel research advancement in resuscitation aimed at improving neurologic survival. Kurt explained its origins, highlighting a case study involving a ski hill cardiac arrest patient who survived due to an elevated head position, which was later recognized as a critical factor. The conversation also touched on a study conducted in South Korea, where researchers developed a modified EMS stretcher to accommodate patients in high-rise buildings with small elevators, leading to the question of the optimal CPR position. Initial findings from animal studies suggested that a head-up position could reduce intracranial pressure, potentially improving outcomes during CPR. CPR Physiology and Blood Flow Joe explained the physiology of CPR, focusing on how differences in pressure inside the body create blood flow. He described how chest compressions increase intrathoracic pressure, pushing blood towards the brain and other areas of lower pressure. He emphasized that over-ventilation and incomplete chest recoil can be detrimental during CPR, as they prevent blood from flowing back into the heart. He also noted that patients who exhibit “guppy breathing” during resuscitation have a better chance of successful resuscitation. CPR Vacuum Technology and Physiology Joe explained the physiology of blood flow during CPR, focusing on the importance of preload and the manipulation of pressure differences between the thoracic cavity and the brain. He described how the ITD16 device creates a vacuum in the chest to enhance blood flow to the brain and reduce intracranial pressure. Joe also discussed the concept of “head-up CPR,” which combines enhanced vacuum with gravity assistance to improve blood flow and neuroprotective outcomes. Head-Up CPR Techniques and Safety Sam and Kurt discussed the importance of using proper equipment and techniques for head-up CPR, as outlined by Dr. Joanna Moore’s “four rules.” Kurt emphasized that suction cup CPR in conjunction with an ITD or rescue pod is crucial for effective and safe head-up CPR. He also stressed the need for a priming period, avoiding excessive head elevation, and slow head-up positioning to prevent blood from draining from the head faster than CPR can pump it back in. Kurt noted that studies claiming head-up CPR doesn’t work often violate these rules, highlighting the significance of adhering to the correct procedures. Head-Up CPR: A Novel Approach The team discussed the importance of proper technique in head-up CPR, emphasizing that it requires a bundled care approach with specific parameters to be effective. Joe and Kurt shared a case study of a retired fire chief who successfully underwent head-up CPR, highlighting the potential benefits of this novel approach. The discussion also touched on the concept of using a combination of therapies in resuscitation, similar to the drug cocktail approach used in treating HIV. Success Stories in Advanced CPR The meeting focused on sharing and discussing remarkable cases of successful CPR, particularly highlighting the concept of “head-up” CPR, which has shown improved outcomes. Kurt and Joe shared several stories of patients who experienced significant neurologic recoveries after cardiac arrests, with survival rates and recovery rates significantly higher than national averages. The discussion emphasized the potential of advanced CPR techniques to improve survival and neurologic outcomes, with Joe noting that two of his services have seen similar success rates. The group the role of specialized training, with Jamie highlighting the sponsorship of the Disaster Podcast by Paragon Medical Education Group.

Almost 40 years ago, the first treatment was approved for HIV, but it came with a warning: “This is not a cure.” On the week of World AIDS Day, Kate Bishop, principal group leader at the Francis Crick Institute, tells us how science may now have finally found a “functional” cure for the virus that causes AIDS. How are tree rings, volcanoes, trade routes and Europe's deadly Black Death pandemic connected? Professor Ulf Büntgen from the University of Cambridge explains how matching tree ring data with historical records shows that Italian city-states importing grain accidentally introduced the Black Death to Europe. Plus science broadcaster Caroline Steel is in the studio to discuss her favourite new scientific discoveries.

In the U.S., it's illegal to edit genes in human embryos with the intention of creating a genetically engineered baby. But according to the Wall Street Journal, Bay Area startups are focused on just that. It wouldn't be the first such baby: in 2018, a Chinese scientist announced he had altered embryos to create a baby immune from HIV. He was sentenced to prison for the illegal practice of medicine. In the US and across the globe, ethical concerns about gene editing embryos to eliminate disease and replicate certain traits like a higher IQ are raising alarms. We'll talk to experts about what is at stake and how innovations in genetic engineering are being directed. Guests: Dr. Fyodor Urnov, Professor of Molecular Therapeutics, University of California, Berkeley - Urnov is also the scientific director at its Innovative Genomics Institute (IGI) Katherine Long, reporter, investigations team, Wall Street Journal - Long's latest piece is titled "Genetically Engineered Babies Are Banned.

Did you know, in 2023, more than 39,000 people were diagnosed with HIV in the United States and six territories, with Hispanic and Black individuals each accounting for more than a third (Source. CDC) In this episode of LOVERS, Shan sits down with Jonathan Van Ness for a conversation about receiving an HIV diagnosis, the years he kept it private, and the moment he decided he wanted the story to come from him. Jonathan shares what it felt like to catch himself holding back during interviews, how choosing to speak changed his relationship with his own truth, and the sense of relief that followed once he stopped protecting something that shaped so much of his life. They also talk about the realities of HIV today, why knowing your status matters, and how tools like PrEP fit into the larger picture of staying informed and reducing stigma.
