Dr. Hana Kahleova reveals the surprising science behind mint. From digestion and blood flow to coughing, inflammation, exercise performance, and antioxidants, mint may be doing far more for your health than you realize. In this episode, you'll learn how compounds in mint may support the body in multiple ways. Dr. Kahleova joins Chuck Carroll to explain how mint has been used for centuries, what modern research shows, and why simple options like mint tea, fresh mint leaves, and topical menthol can offer unique and powerful benefits.

Binge eating and emotional eating are not simply about willpower. According to Dr. Vanita Rahman, they are often driven by stress, shame, biology, habits, food environment, and the way the brain learns to use food as a coping mechanism. In this episode of The Exam Room Podcast, Dr. Rahman joins Chuck Carroll to explain what is really happening when someone feels out of control around food — and how to begin breaking the cycle. Chuck also shares his own experience with food addiction, emotional eating, and eating in secret before losing 280 pounds and transforming his health.

Do you think AI will have an impact on science? You are wrong. It will not–it already does. The annual International Conference on Information Systems received over 1,000 more paper submissions this year. Our main journals report a 20%, 40%, or even 100% increase in submission numbers. This could be great if these papers were good, if we simply saw more and better research being produced. Problem is: We don't. What we see is an AI slop tsunami of less readable papers, hastily produced, with marginal insights if any. How should we handle this situation? We discuss a few possible levers on the supply and demand side of research that we as a field could implement. References Gartenberg, C., Hasan, S., Murray, A., & Pierce, L. (2026).

Are ultra-processed foods really as unhealthy as we've been told? New research suggests the answer may be more complicated than the headlines make it seem. Dr. Neal Barnard joins Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast to break down findings showing that much of the health risk linked to ultra-processed foods may be driven by two specific categories: processed meat and sugar-sweetened beverages. That means foods like bacon, sausage, ham, bologna, pepperoni, hot dogs, and soda may be doing much of the heavy lifting when it comes to increased disease risk. But what about breakfast cereal? Plant-based burgers? Vegan snacks? Olive oil? Cheese? Steak? And what about studies linking ultra-processed foods to cognitive decline and dementia risk? Dr. Barnard helps separate nutrition fact from fiction and explains what really matters when you're reading a food label.

Text Dr. Lenz any feedback or questions Dr. Stephanie Pearson on Workplace Injury, Invisible Disability Claims, and Disability Insurance PitfallsDr. Stephanie Pearson, an OB-GYN, describes how a workplace shoulder injury during a delivery led to chronic pain, failed surgery outcomes, job termination after FMLA, and denial of her hospital disability coverage due to a fine-print work-injury exclusion, followed by a disputed workers' comp claim and a settlement after litigation. She explains how invisible or subjective conditions (e.g., chronic pain, fibromyalgia, headaches) are often doubted by clinicians and challenged by insurers, why “gray” cases face scrutiny, and how documentation of worst-day functional limits and timely medical-record collection are critical, including possible IMEs. Pearson contrasts employer group vs private disability insurance, highlighting taxable group benefits, benefit caps, portability issues, and common two-year limitations for subjective illnesses, while private policies depend on underwriting, exclusions, and participation limits. She also discusses underwriting impacts of medical coding, runs a physician peer support group, and shares personal recovery supports and her company's client advocacy approach.00:00 Meet Dr Pearson01:23 Injury In Delivery Room02:25 Surgery And Termination03:03 Denied And Sued04:11 Mental Health Crisis05:54 New Purpose And Company06:40 Invisible Illness Bias09:05 Building A Paper Trail12:59 Independent Medical Exams16:33 Group Versus Private Coverage19:25 Subjective Illness Limits23:12 Underwriting Exclusions24:28 Fibromyalgia Stigma25:15 Contracts And Legal Review25:44 Coverage Limits Explained28:44 Underwriting and Intake Process29:54 Medical History Surprises32:10 No Underwriting Options33:32 Psych Diagnosis Pitfalls36:26 Staying Properly Insured38:44 Claims SuClick here for the YouTube Channel  Click here for the YouTube channel International Conference on ADHD in November 2025 where Dr. Lenz will be one of the speakers.

Are you interested in amphibious architecture as a potential solutions for floods? Our debate today works with the article titled Thriving with water: Developments in amphibious architecture in North America from 2016, by Elizabeth English, Natasha Klink, and Scott Turner, presented at FLOODrisk 2016 – 3rd European Conference on Flood Risk Management. This is a great preparation to our next interview with Elizabeth English in episode 428 talking about amphibious architecture solutions from all over the world. Since we are investigating the future of cities, I thought it would be interesting to see a resilient alternative to traditional flood defences in amphibious construction. This article introduces amphibious architecture, structures that float on the surface of rising waters, which provides greater adaptability and maintains neighbourhood character.Find the article through this link.Abstract: There is increasing awareness worldwide that traditional flood-mitigation strategies that attempt to control the flow of water only increase the likelihood of catastrophic consequences in the long run, when failure inevitably occurs after years of complacency and development behind flood barriers. Amphibious architecture is a non-defensive flood mitigation and climate change adaptation strategy that works in synchrony with a floodprone region's natural cycles of flooding, allowing water to flow rather than creating an obstruction. Since the height to which an amphibious building rises is not necessarily fixed but adapts to the variable depth of flood water, amphibiation can accommodate rising sea levels and land subsidence as well. Amphibious retrofitting can provide measurable cost savings compared to other flood mitigation strategies, performing well in loss avoidance studies for both flood and wind damage. An amphibious approach to planning and construction recognizes the beneficial aspects of seasonal and occasional flooding, allowing us not merely to live with water, but to thrive with it. This paper reviews case studies of both existing and proposed amphibious buildings, with discussion of their systems and components. It also discusses the limitations of amphibious construction, some of the regulatory obstacles that have discouraged its development, and possible paths forward. The first International Conference on Amphibious Architecture, Design and Engineering, ICAADE 2015, was held in Bangkok, Thailand, in August 2015. The second, ICAADE 2017, will convene at the University of Waterloo in Canada in June 2017.Connecting episodes you might be intersted in:No.282 - Interview with Keygan Huckleberry about disaster resilienceNo.292 - Interview with Anthony Acciavatti about the importance of waterNo.412 - Interview with Louis de Jaeger about the need for natureYou can find the transcript through ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠th⁠i⁠⁠⁠s link⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠What was the most interesting part for you?

Recorded live at the Captive Insurance Companies Association 2026 International Conference, this episode of The Edge of Risk Podcast by IRMI features Kristen Lawler discussing one of the most closely watched captive insurance tax decisions in recent years: the 2025 CFM Insurance Tax Court memorandum opinion. Drawing from her recent article in IRMI's publication Captive Insurance Company Reports, Ms. Lawler explains how the case highlights the growing importance of operational discipline, governance, documentation, pricing support, and claims handling in determining whether a captive arrangement qualifies as insurance for federal tax purposes. The discussion explores the "commonly accepted notions" prong of the four-part insurance test and why it has become an increasingly significant focus of Internal Revenue Service scrutiny and Tax Court analysis. Ms. Lawler examines how the court evaluated risk distribution, premium practices, policy issuance, and state licensure issues under the McCarran-Ferguson framework, while also outlining practical questions captive owners should be asking their advisers today. The episode offers timely insight for captive owners, tax professionals, actuaries, and risk managers seeking to better understand how operational rigor and economic substance continue to shape the captive insurance landscape.

Learn more about everything at our home page www.diabetes-connections.com  Okay.. our top story this week: XX The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Tzield (teplizumab-mzwv) for use in children in stage 2 type 1 diabetes (T1D) ages one and older. The approval expands the previous indication from those aged eight and above and was granted under a priority review process. This decision is supported by one-year data from the PETITE-T1D Phase IV study, which evaluated the safety and pharmacokinetics of Tzield in children under eight years old. Tzield was approved for use in individuals 8+ in stage 2 T1D in 2022. Since then, we have been working to expand the eligible population. This expansion effort includes individuals in stage 3 T1D, who can preserve endogenous insulin production for longer when they take Tzield and, most notably today, children in stage 2. https://www.breakthrought1d.org/news-and-updates/tzield-approved-for-children-ages-one-and-older-in-stage-2-t1d/   XX Big write up in the journal Pediatrics about screening for type 1. Citing the 2025 ADA Standards of Care in Diabetes, the opinion piece talks about how to engage the greater healthcare community.  It says: We aim to encourage the development of strategies to emphasize the importance of T1D early detection, integrate screening into routine health care encounters, and support implementation of T1D screening. Pediatricians and other primary care clinicians are well positioned for greater collaboration with the multidisciplinary team, ensuring early detection, timely intervention, and improved outcomes. https://publications.aap.org/pediatricsopenscience/article/2/2/1/207272/Type-1-Diabetes-Screening-in-Pediatrics-Putting?autologincheck=redirected   XX More info about GLP-1 drugs and people with type 1. New study shows off label use did not lead to DKA or pancreatitis in a large 1-year single-center study. Moreover, GLP-1 agonist use in people with T1D was associated with lower overall rates of hospitalization, as has occurred in type 2 diabetes Although GLP-1 agonists are not approved by the FDA for T1D management, off-label adjunctive use has risen for those with obesity. Semaglutide was the most commonly-used GLP-1 (65.5% of GLP-1 users) followed by tirzepatide (23.5%). The rest were using the older-generation drugs: liraglutide or dulaglutide. Lots more information to come on type 1 and glp 1-s in upcoming studies. https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/use-glp-1s-type-1-diabetes-not-linked-increased-dka-2026a1000d56 XX Health Canada ‌​has approved the first generic ​version of ​Danish ⁠drugmaker ⁠Novo ‌Nordisk's Ozempic drug. In January 2026, the Canadian patent for Ozempic will expire, paving the way for cheap generic versions of the semaglutide injections that help regulate blood sugar levels and appetite. Health Canada said this generic, like existing products, is indicated to be used for the "once-weekly treatment of adult patients with Type 2 diabetes to manage blood sugar levels." With three generics on the market, Tadrous said the price could drop to about $100 or less, depending on their dose. Health Canada said it's currently reviewing eight other generic submissions by different companies and expects to make a decision on these in the next few weeks and months. https://www.cbc.ca/news/health/ozempic-generic-health-canada-9.7180566 XX  Insulet has enrolled the first participant in a pivotal study for its fully closed-loop (FCL)A automated insulin delivery (AID) system for type 2 diabetes (T2D  The participants are between 18 – 75 years of age, living with T2D and using insulin (basal-bolus or basal-only). The Company received Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) approval in March 2026 from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The Company plans to submit a 510(k) filing to the FDA in 2027 and launch its FCL AID system for T2D in 2028.   XX insulet Corporation (PODD) has initiated a voluntary recall of certain lots of its Omnipod 5 insulin delivery Pods in the U.S. after detecting that some devices had a manufacturing defect that causes insulin leakage.   Patients using the affected devices could risk experiencing high blood glucose levels due to insufficient insulin delivery, the Acton, Massachusetts-based MedTech disclosed in a statement late Thursday. The company has already notified the FDA about the recall, which it said will affect nearly 1.5% of Omnipod 5 pod units it manufactures annually. The customers were advised to immediately seek a product replacement at no cost if a Pod from a defective lot is currently in use. https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/insulet-recalling-certain-defective-omnipod-insulin-delivery-devices/ar-AA1YyslT?apiversion=v2&domshim=1&noservercache=1&noservertelemetry=1&batchservertelemetry=1&renderwebcomponents=1&wcseo=1&bundles=feat-es2020-c XX Tandem Diabetes Care (Nasdaq:TNDM) gets FDA clearance for its automated insulin delivery (AID) technology for use in pregnancy. The FDA cleared the company's Control-IQ AID technology for use in what they call: pregnancy complicated by type 1 diabetes mellitus. Tandem says t:slim X2 and Mobi are the first and only commercially available AID systems cleared for use during pregnancy in the U.S. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/tandem-fda-clearance-aid-pregnancy-t1d/ XX Tandem also issued an urgent medical device correction for a software problem with its Mobi insulin pumps. The malfunction may cause insulin delivery to stop, causing high blood sugar if not addressed, the Food and Drug Administration said in a Wednesday recall notice. We told you about this back in October when Tandem sent a letter to customers notifying them of the fault and instructing them to update their pump software as soon as possible. The FDA now issued a class one recall, the most serious type. We just released a bonus episode all about Tanem – tubeless mobi and what else is in the pipeline. You can listen to that wherever you are listening to this.. it's the episode just before this one. https://www.medtechdive.com/news/tandem-recalls-mobi-insulin-pumps-over-software-malfunction/818260/   XX Switching CGMs didn't make a measurable difference for adults using MiniMed's pump system. In a real-world analysis presented at the International Conference on Advanced Technologies & Treatments for Diabetes, researchers found that CGM metrics for patients who switched from the Guardian 4 sensor (MiniMed) to Instinct by Abbott were able to maintain a time in range of greater than 75%. "When it comes to the automated insulin delivery system ... I think the sensor matters less and the system matters more," Viral N. Shah, MD, professor of medicine in the division of endocrinology and metabolism and director of diabetes clinical research at Indiana University Center for Diabetes and Metabolic Diseases, said during a presentation. "Having a different sensor with the system, I think the [glycemic] outcomes will still be what you want." I'm including this because the headline here seemed to indicate no CGM makes a difference, but this study only looked at two. https://www.healio.com/news/endocrinology/20260401/switching-cgm-sensors-does-not-impact-glycemic-outcomes-with-automated-insulin-delivery   XX Vitamin D supplementation may help delay or prevent disease progression in people with prediabetes.. in people who have specific variants in their vitamin D receptor gene. This was found after a second look at large study where researchers found vitamin d really did make a difference.. a second look with people who had a specific gene variation had much better results. "More research is needed to see if there are other factors that are associated with risk reduction." https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/vitamin-d-supplements-help-prevent-type-2-diabetes-right-gene-variants   XX Senseonics (Nasdaq:SENS) announced today that it initiated the first European launch of its Eversense 365 continuous glucose monitor (CGM). The launch comes a few months after the company picked up CE mark for the long-term, implantable CGM in January. Eversense 365 is the world's first 365-day CGM system. It also holds clearance as an integrated CGM (iCGM) system, meaning it can work with compatible medical devices. Those include insulin pumps as part of automated insulin delivery systems, like the Sequel Med Tech twiist system. The company said it made Eversense 365 available to the first patients in Sweden. It plans to bring the sensor to Germany, Spain and Italy in the coming weeks https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/senseonics-launches-eversense-365-europe/ XX A machine learning model can improve genetic prediction of type 1 diabetes by as much as 10%, show results from a University of California, San Diego study.   The researchers used the machine‑learning model T1GRS to improve on a gold standard polygenic genetic risk score used to predict who is likely to develop the condition called GRS2. The GRS2 polygenic risk score has been widely tested and can be used to predict newborns who are at high risk of developing type 1 diabetes. While early prediction can't necessarily stop the disease it can help to prevent emergencies like diabetic ketoacidosis at diagnosis, allow families time to prepare and could allow use of therapies to delay onset of the condition. In this study, Gaulton and colleagues carried out a genome‑wide association study in 20,355 people with type 1 diabetes and 797,363 non‑diabetic Europeans, as well as a further analysis around the MHC region in 10,107 diabetic and 19,639 nondiabetic individuals. https://www.insideprecisionmedicine.com/topics/molecular-dx/machine-learning-tool-helps-improve-type-1-diabetes-prediction/ XX Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.) said Monday that he will return to the upper chamber this week after taking time off for the death of his daughter, Madison.   The Virginia senator wrote on the social platform X, "As we remember our incredible daughter, Maddy, my family has been deeply touched by the outpouring of support we've received. Thank you to everyone for your kind words." Madison Warner, 36, died earlier this month after a decades-long battle with juvenile diabetes and other health issues. Mark Warner and his wife, Lisa Collis, wrote in a statement last Monday that they were "heartbroken beyond words" by their daughter's passing.   On Monday, the former Virginia governor said his daughter "was a deeply empathetic and engaged person" and that "as recently as the day she passed, she was full of ideas and suggestions" for him, including how he could improve his social media presence.   "She used to say to me: 'Dad, you have the power — you have to use it.' She pushed me to make the most of my position, to use my seat in the Senate to help people in meaningful ways," he added.       "If I can find any solace during this time, it's that I have the enormous privilege to serve Virginians and the responsibility to keep working for a better, more just world in Maddy's name."   Warner concluded, "I look forward to returning to the Senate this week and continuing that essential work."   Madison Warner is survived by two younger sisters.     An estimated than 2.1 million Americans, including about 314,000 children and adolescents younger than age 20, have diagnosed type 1 diabetes as of March — which is what juvenile diabetes is commonly called — according to the CDC's National Diabetes Statistics Report.   An estimated 11 million U.S. adults have undiagnosed diabetes, the report notes.   Symptoms of type 1 diabetes include feeling more thirsty than usual, urinating a lot, bed-wetting in children who have never done so, feeling very hungry and losing weight without trying, according to the Mayo Clinic. https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/5851605-mark-warner-diabetes-death/ XX Mattel, Inc. and Breakthrough T1D just won a Gold Halo Award for Best Cause Product Initiative for the launch of the first Barbie with T1D.  The Halo Awards recognize the most outstanding corporate social impact efforts over the past year.

Text Dr. Lenz any feedback or questions Adult Autism and Masking: Why Diagnosis Matters and How to Recognize What's Beneath the SurfaceDr. Michael Lenz interviews clinical psychologist Donna Henderson, co-author with Sarah Wayland and Jamel White of “Is This Autism? A Guide for Clinicians and Everyone Else” and a companion diagnostic guide, about why autism in adults is often missed, especially in people who camouflage. Henderson describes realizing autism in a client with many prior diagnoses and how the field's training focused on stereotyped, observable behaviors rather than internal experience. They discuss how diagnosis can support self-understanding, self-advocacy, and self-compassion; the difference between social motivation and social energy; why autism in girls often becomes evident around middle school; and how neurocrash, burnout, sensory overload, and misinterpretations of affect can lead to dismissal in healthcare. Henderson argues for clinician education, careful interviewing over test scores, broader access to diagnosis, and considering autism before personality disorder labels.00:00 Late Autism Discovery00:27 Meet The Expert02:40 From Training To Insight06:42 Why Diagnosis Matters11:17 Beyond Observable Traits16:07 Social Energy Vs Interest20:11 Girls And Middle School Shift24:43 State Of Autism Today30:18 Clinicians Need Training37:45 Misdiagnosed As Personality39:37 Hoarding And Pink Flags41:57 Strengths And Sensory Overload44:39 Strengths Need Context45:37 Medical Care and Misread Signals47:35 Pain Expression and Masking50:35 Social Mislabels and Directness53:07 Neurocrash vs Burnout57:42 Reframing Kids and Parenting01:02:19 Cross Neurotype Communic Click here for the YouTube channel International Conference on ADHD in November 2025 where Dr. Lenz will be one of the speakers.

Recorded live at the Captive Insurance Companies Association 2026 International Conference, this episode of The Edge of Risk Podcast by IRMI explores how artificial intelligence (AI) is moving beyond industry hype and into practical application within captive insurance programs. Joel Appelbaum is joined by Steven Bauman of AXA XL to examine where AI is already delivering measurable value—from underwriting support and claims analytics to operational efficiency and reporting enhancements—while also addressing the critical importance of data readiness and governance. The discussion also expands into emerging risks, including the distinction between autonomous vehicles and broader autonomous mobility systems, and how these evolving exposures may reshape captive structures, capital strategies, and risk retention approaches. Mr. Bauman highlights the role of captives as incubators for emerging risks, particularly in environments where loss data is limited, and discusses how fronting insurers and regulatory considerations may evolve alongside these technologies.

This week, In Class With Carr comes from the 42nd International Conference of The Association for the Study of Classical African Civilizations, whose members have worked for over four decades to use the Per Ankh (House of Life) as a model for African renewal. Drawing on presentations in ASCAC's five domestic U.S. regions over the previous year, we consider ASCAC's work as a formation for the consideration of ancestral ways of knowing; a set of varied place-making practices; a community of cultural meaning-makers; a spiritually grounded governance formation rooted in service and a living repository of movement and memory. In this way, ASCAC's work as a House of Life also renews, repositions, and sustains African knowledge as a necessary weapon to be wielded in the face of a hostile and dying contemporary global social structure.Are you a member of Knarrative?

On this week's hemp show we're headed out to Colorado for the Industrial Hemp International Conference where hempsters from all across the value chain gathered to share ideas, make deals and be in community with one another. As a hemp podcaster, I had the unique opportunity to work in community with a couple of storytellers while I was there — Blaire Johnson and Jordan Berger — two independent filmmakers who teamed up for this special event. And what you'll hear on this episode is the result of that collaboration. First we talk about their respective work — including Berger's long awaited documentary film One Plant, which will premier this spring. Then we hear an audio essay — a sound collage of voices from the industry, including Winona LaDuke, Nick Furlong, Micaela Machado, Jeremy Klettke, Morris Beegle and more. This is a critical time not only for the hemp industry but for the world. As Winona LaDuke puts it, "You have a choice between a scorched path and a green path." The people building the hemp industry are choosing the green path, but it takes longer than you might think. Hemp industry veteran Joe Hickey compares it to a dance, "two step forward and then one step back." 1937 International's Nick Furlong brings new energy to the dance of hemp this year. Furlong is a multi-platinum songwriter and producer whose work spans global hits and major-label rock records. He said he has been bitten by the "hemp bug" and has focused his energy on building out the supply chain and developing opportunities for business. He said he wants to help shape the story of hemp so it intersects with pop culture — and intersects with culture in general. We also hear from Larry Serbin from Pure Fiber Innovations who talks about his much anticipated green decorticator, which he says will increase farmer's per acre income on hemp. "Currently they're earning about $800 per acre. With our machine, they're going to earn about $2,000 per acre," said Serbin. Listen to the whole show for maximum goodness.

Through interviews with farmers, builders, supply chain developers, and advocates, the episode explores the current state of industrial hemp, with a focus on fiber, grain, construction materials, and scalable infrastructure. Key themes include the challenge of building reliable supply chains, the need for processing infrastructure such as decortication, and the importance of aligning farmers, manufacturers, and markets. Speakers discuss innovations in hemp-based construction, textile production, and biocomposites, alongside emerging global supply chain efforts in regions like Pakistan. The episode highlights both optimism and realism, with industry leaders acknowledging slow but steady progress. The episode also emphasizes the role of storytelling and collaboration in advancing the hemp industry. Filmmakers Blaire Johnson and Jordan Berger contributed field interviews and visual documentation as part of their broader documentary project, One Plant. Their work captures the cultural and economic momentum behind hemp as a regenerative agricultural commodity and industrial material. Overall, the episode positions industrial hemp as a critical component of future sustainable materials systems, with applications in housing, textiles, and manufacturing. It underscores the need for policy clarity, investment in infrastructure, and coordinated industry efforts to move hemp from niche crop to mainstream agricultural and industrial commodity.

In this episode of The Birth Lounge Podcast, HeHe sits down with filmmaker and activist Brendon Marotta to explore the history, ethics, and modern practice of circumcision. Brendon shares how circumcision became medicalized over time, shifting from early cultural and religious roots to routine use in modern hospital systems. The conversation looks at how messaging has evolved, including past beliefs about infant pain, what current research suggests, and how conversations around consent and bodily autonomy have changed over the years. HeHe and Brendon also discuss the function of the foreskin, common claims around hygiene and health, and why circumcision rates in the U.S. have been declining. They touch on cultural influences, generational beliefs, and how parents today are navigating this decision with more access to information than ever before. Throughout the episode, the focus stays on informed decision-making, understanding the full picture, and creating space for thoughtful, pressure-free conversations around a topic that is often considered routine but rarely questioned.

With Gary away at the International Conference on the Fantastic in the Arts in Florida, and celebrating his 80th birthday (!!!!!), Jonathan sat down to chat with Alexandra Pierce and Ian Mond about why we read books, why we talk about and review them, and three great new books from 2026 that we loved. Along the way, we talked about Johanna Bell's The Department of the Vanishing, S.L. Huang's The Language of Liars, and Francis Spufford's Nonesuch, which led to the spontaneous inaugural meeting of The Totally Temporary Book Club, because by sheer chance all three had read and loved it.

Text Dr. Lenz any feedback or questions Trigeminal Neuralgia Beyond Nerve Pain: Marsha's Racing, Menopause, and Advocacy StoryThe episode explores trigeminal neuralgia as more complex than a simple nerve injury, often overlapping with nociplastic chronic pain features like widespread pain, fatigue, insomnia, and brain fog. Marsha, a longtime off-road racer, recounts an eight-year path to diagnosis after severe electric-shock facial and scalp pain, repeated ER visits, normal imaging, and feeling dismissed as drug-seeking. She describes TN as “torture,” worse than childbirth, and details treatments including carbamazepine, gabapentin, nerve blocks, and gamma knife, which provided about a year of relief but left facial numbness and corneal damage with vision loss. She also has Sjögren's syndrome, concussion history, anxiety/depression, and discusses perimenopause/menopause timing, hormone therapy trials, and possible ADHD. Racing helps her cope mentally, though symptoms worsen after removing her helmet, and she emphasizes support groups, self-advocacy, and not giving up.00:00 Trigeminal Neuralgia Beyond Nerves05:05 Marsha's First Symptoms07:26 ER Visits and Misdiagnosis08:35 Finally Getting a Diagnosis09:38 Becoming an Advocate13:49 What TN Feels Like15:58 Neuropathic vs Nociplastic Pain17:14 Treatments and Gamma Knife23:13 Concussions and Early Clues28:14 Hormones Menopause Connection36:38 Racing as Therapy39:23 Daily Management and Race Day Routine41:42 Racing as Flow State44:29 Adrenaline and Desert Races46:46 TN Community and Daily Struggles48:37 Fatigue Meds and Survival52:13 Living Without a Cure55:02 Faith and Being There56:38 High School Trauma a Click here for the YouTube channel International Conference on ADHD in November 2025 where Dr. Lenz will be one of the speakers.

In celebration of Women's History Month, this episode is about four lesser-known goddesses of the ancient Egyptian afterlife whose primary roles were to protect, nourish, and occasionally punish those within the city of the dead. While famous deities often dominate pop culture, these four goddesses offer a unique window into how the Egyptians viewed the natural world and the social roles of mortal women. Discover the stories and archaeological footprints of Imentet who was the personification of the West; Khefethernebes and Meretseger who were both from the Theban Necropolis; and Hapetnebes from the Abydan Necropolis. From the royal tombs to the graffiti of tomb builders, this episode traces how the divine feminine provided a sense of security for both the physical body and the soul on its journey through the Duat.

Text Dr. Lenz any feedback or questions Dr. Iris Manor on ADHD, Trauma, PTSD, and Resilience: Risks, Mechanisms, and TreatmentThe host interviews Dr. Iris Manor, a child and adolescent psychiatrist and ADHD researcher, about links between ADHD and traumatic stress disorders, including a Denmark study finding children with ADHD are about 11 times more likely to develop PTSD. Manor distinguishes trauma exposure from traumatic stress disorders and describes behavioral risk (novelty-seeking, impulsivity) and shared neurobiology (hippocampus/ventromedial prefrontal networks, inflammatory cytokines), including possible transgenerational effects of maternal trauma. She argues ADHD and traumatic stress are usually separate but interacting diagnoses, and emphasizes resilience through structure, goals, and avoiding helplessness, noting ADHD makes these harder. She warns clinicians often stop stimulants after trauma despite potential benefit, recommends treating ADHD (and parents' ADHD), and highlights emotional dysregulation requiring treatment (often guanfacine) to enable ADHD and trauma care. The discussion also covers overlap with chronic pain/fibromyalgia and long COVID, autism-related vulnerability, and disagreement with claims that ADHD is primarily caused by trauma.00:00 Trauma and ADHD Link03:11 Why Risk Is Higher04:02 Biology and Inflammation08:04 Which Comes First09:49 Types of Trauma Examples11:52 National Trauma Risk Groups15:14 Covid and Chronic Pain20:42 Resilience Rules and Structure22:20 Treat ADHD During Trauma26:39 Family Screening and Care31:12 ADHD Impact on PTSD Treatment33:33 Emotional Dysregulation Hierarchy35:51 Guanfacine for Dysregulation38:36 Autism Risk and Click here for the YouTube channel International Conference on ADHD in November 2025 where Dr. Lenz will be one of the speakers.

Heart disease is the leading cause of death — but it's also one of the most preventable conditions.  In this episode of The Exam Room, Dr. Neal Barnard joins Chuck Carroll to reveal the best foods for reversing heart disease, lowering cholesterol, and protecting your arteries naturally. Dr. Barnard breaks down the science behind oats, beans, walnuts, leafy greens, flaxseed, berries, and more — and explain how these foods help remove LDL cholesterol, improve endothelial function, and reduce inflammation. Can plaque really shrink? How fast can cholesterol levels drop? What should you eat if you've already had a heart attack? If you're serious about improving your cardiovascular health, this evidence-based conversation offers practical steps you can start today.

Journalist and writer Jessica Grose attended the International Conference for Near Death Experiences this past summer and joins the show to talk about her takeaways. She shares tales of the “experiencers” themselves, the scientists and the people in grief. Also, Jessica grew up in the same town where the Unification Church was based, so Rachel and Irene have a lot of questions!

CLIMATE ACTION SHOWProduced by Vivien LangfordFebruary 16th 2026B E L E M   T O   S A N T A   M A R T AAt last! The first International Conference focused on the Transition Away from fossil fuel dependence.https://transitionawayconference.com/It will be held at the end of April 2026, in the Colombian Coal Port of Santa Marta.The aim is to create actionable guidelines. It will not replace the UN process but will contribute to the Belem roadmap announced by the COP 30th president in Brazil. It  will be the first International conference where actual implementation will be worked on.Should our First Nations Leaders and our Climate Change Minister attend this meeting? So far Chris Bowen is not expected to attend.Let him know what you think:Contact Details for Chris Bowen:Email: chris.bowen.mp@aph.gov.auPhone: (02) 9604 0710 GuestsKumi Naidoo - President of the Fossil Fuel Non Proliferation TreatyAt the Santa Marta Conference the many ways we can achieve FF phase out will be explored. A TREATY is one.Oil rich states like East Timor and Colombia have signed but Australia has not.Australia has signed the Belem Declaration and  Kumi Naidoo wishes our  Climate Minister  the Honorable Chris Bowen good luck as the President of Negotiations for the next COP . Chris Bowen's role will be to advance the interests of the Pacific. Australia will have “exclusive authority in relation to the negotiations”, to shape  global decision making in support of the multilateral system and the  global trade and investment in clean energy industries. The results of this conference will feed into an October conference in the Pacific which will lead to COP31 at the end of the year.Kumi Naidoo also argues for climate action being action for peace. As Colombia's Environment Minister Irene Velez Torres said since the US attack on oil rich Venezuela "We are more sovereign if we are less dependent on exports that are carbon intensive"This is a volatile time to be getting real about fossil fuel phase out, but Kumi Naidoo uses  entertaining metaphors to dramatise our urgent need to "Turn off the tap" driving climate chaos. Here is Kumi Naidoo's ABC interview about his new book "What we owe the water."https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdYwCSC_RUU Bastiaan Hassing - Programme Lead for the Netherlands at the Santa Marta Summit in ColombiaHe discusses HOW the countries who have already demonstrated a commitment to transition will work on realistic steps. Phasing out subsidies is one way.At COP30 in Belem The Climate Policy Minister of the Netherlands, Sophie Hermans, announced that they would co host with Colombia the First International conference on the phase out of fossil fuels. This is big news. It is outside the UN process but will feed into the next COP in Turkiye.The Netherlands  already leads a coalition of 13+countries committed to phasing out fossil fuel subsidies. Australia is not yet a member. We spend $14.5billion p/a which  greatly delays the transition to cleaner energy by lowering production costs and distorting the energy market. Gariduyla - Comment at the launch of a film about The Adani/Bravus coal mine and the Wangan and Jagalingou Cultural Custodians who are protecting the waters of the Greatb Artesian Basin beneath it.A new documentary titled "Nagana Yarrbayn – The Water Protectors" focuses on the Wangan and Jagalingou (W&J) Cultural Custodians and their ongoing fight to protect their ancestral waters from Adani's Carmichael mine. Here are details about the film and its upcoming tour:About the Film: The documentary, produced by Kim Paul Nguyen in collaboration with W&J Cultural Custodians, follows Senior Cultural Custodian Adrian Burragubba's efforts to protect his ancestral lands and the sacred Doongmabulla Springs.

For the right-wing populist political leaders who gathered in Jerusalem for the Netanyahu government’s second International Conference on Combating Antisemitism this week, the formula for fighting Jew hatred is simple, according to Haaretz correspondent Linda Dayan, who attended and reported on the two-day event. Organized by the Diaspora Affairs Ministry led by far-right Likud MK Amichai Chikli, Dayan tells the Haaretz Podcast that the message of the majority of prominent speakers at the conference is that Jews “have one enemy” – radical Islam – “and that enemy is propped up by the woke left” with a shared agenda of destroying the West. Later on the podcast, Dayan – who has covered the protest movement in Israel for the return of the hostages led by their families since October 7 – reflected on the end of the struggle following the return of the final hostage’s remains earlier this week and the end of the vigil in Tel Aviv’s Hostage Square. The movement, she said, transcended politics; it was a deeper fight to preserve the national ethos of never leaving anyone behind. Dayan explained: “From the very beginning, you would hear in the speeches in the square that this isn't just a battle to return our daughters and sons and parents and grandparents. This is a battle for the values of the country – a battle for the version of the country we want our children to grow up in and we want the next generation to inherit.” Read more: Global Far Right Flocks to Jerusalem to Bash Muslims and Migration at Israel's Antisemitism Confab Netanyahu Claims There Is a Progressive/Muslim Plot to 'Destroy the West' at Israeli Government's Antisemitism Conference Why Charlie Kirk, Fan of Antisemitic Conspiracy Theories, Is Loved by Israel's Government Tel Aviv Clock Counting Hostages' Captivity Stopped Following Retrieval of Ran Gvili's Body Ran Gvili, Last Hostage to Be Returned From Gaza, Laid to Rest in IsraelSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tired of ADHD strategies that don't work? Here's what actually does. FREE training here: https://programs.tracyotsuka.com/signup_____A 10-year-old boy sat across from Dr. Kalaki Clarke, MD during her psychiatry rotation, and she saw herself. Smart, charming, good grades but couldn't get it together. That's when she knew she had ADHD too.Dr. Clarke was in her first year of residency at UC Irvine, working 80-hour weeks in a system designed to test you constantly. She'd been the good kid, the high achiever, the one who always kept it together. But in residency, surrounded by neurotypical colleagues, sleep-deprived, and constantly performing, the mask finally came off. Her 2015 diagnosis became a turning point, launching her into advocacy for physicians with ADHD. She helped craft equity guidelines for neurodivergent resident physicians, spoke at the International Conference on ADHD, and delivered a TEDx talk called "Seeing is Freeing: How Observation Releases ADHD Potential."Now, as a board-certified family physician and Associate Professor of Medical Education at USC's Keck School of Medicine, Dr. Clarke spends her time providing care for underserved communities in Los Angeles while shaping the next generation of doctors.In this conversation, Dr. Clarke and Tracy talk about what it's like to have ADHD in a profession that demands perfection and how "seeing is freeing" applies to both patients and physicians. Dr. Clarke introduces her CAT method (Capture, Analyze, Transform), a framework for turning struggles into strategies. She also talks about leading by example, why she came out publicly about her ADHD at work, and what it means to create space for others to be seen when you've spent so long feeling invisible yourself.Resources: Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kmclarkemd Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/this_md_kalaki/ TEDx Talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKmRyxlas3ISend a Message: Your Name | Email | Message If this podcast helps you understand your ADHD brain, Shift helps you train it.
