In this episode of The Psychedelic Podcast, Paul F. Austin speaks with investigative journalist Robert Whitaker about the evidence behind psychiatric prescribing, SSRI withdrawal, and what psychedelic medicine can learn from that history. Find full show notes and links here: https://thethirdwave.co/podcast/episode-370/?ref=278 Whitaker revisits the chemical imbalance theory, long-term antidepressant outcomes, and how psychiatric drugs evolved from short-term interventions toward chronic use. He also explores the social and environmental dimensions of mental health before turning to psychedelic medicine and the risks of recreating a drug-centered model of care. Robert Whitaker is the author of five books, three examining the history of psychiatry. His 2010 book, Anatomy of an Epidemic: Magic Bullets, Psychiatric Drugs, and the Astonishing Rise of Mental Illness, won the U.S. Investigative Reporters and Editors award for best investigative journalism. He is president of the Mad in America Foundation and founder of MadinAmerica.com, which features research news and perspectives from an international group of writers interested in rethinking psychiatry. Highlights: How the chemical imbalance story took hold What long-term psychiatric outcomes reveal How antidepressants became long-term treatment SSRI withdrawal versus recurring depression When SSRIs help, and at what cost Mental health beyond individual brain chemistry Psychedelic medicalization and personal agency Community, ritual, and psychedelic experience Episode Links: Mad in America Robert Whitaker Books SSRI Deprescribing & Psychedelic Readiness Training with Dr. Dave Rabin Disclaimer: This content is for educational, informational, and entertainment purposes only.

Investigative journalist and O’Keefe Media Group founder James O’Keefe joins Tudor Dixon to reveal what his undercover investigations uncovered about vulnerabilities in America’s election system. O’Keefe takes Tudor inside his recent investigations in Michigan, Minnesota, Alaska, and California, including allegations involving non-citizen voting, voter ID requirements, absentee ballots, ballot harvesting, and Minnesota’s controversial voter “vouching” system. O’Keefe also discusses his investigation in Alaska involving Sen. Lisa Murkowski’s brother, the calls for his prosecution following his undercover reporting, and why he says his team carefully avoided illegally casting or obtaining ballots while documenting potential weaknesses in election safeguards. The conversation also turns to California, where O’Keefe says his reporting uncovered people paying homeless individuals to forge signatures on petitions and register to vote—an investigation he says ultimately resulted in an FBI arrest. Tudor and O’Keefe discuss the SAVE Act, election integrity, voter ID, censorship, the role of investigative journalism, and why O’Keefe believes exposing election vulnerabilities on camera is more powerful than simply telling Americans they exist.

Craig Unger, investigative reporter and author, explores President Donald Trump's unstable foreign policy toward Russia and Ukraine. Unger contends that Trump behaves as a Russian appeaser whose real estate-linked advisers take marching orders from Vladimir Putin. The discussion highlights how Ukrainian-manufactured drones have successfully targeted Russian oil refineries, causing severe fuel shortages and long gas lines across Russia. While these military successes initially impressed Trump, leading him to publicly promise Patriot missiles and production technology to President Zelenskyy, Unger reveals that Trump subsequently withheld this critical support. Unger cautions that as Putin faces an existential crisis and potential military defeat, he may launch a limited incursion into Baltic states like Estonia or Poland. This would trigger NATO's Article 5, which Unger warns Trump would likely refuse to honor, thereby destroying the Western alliance. (4)

From the restaurant menu that has 10 pages of entre options, to trying to pick out a new set of ear buds on Amazon, to telling kids they can be “anything they want.” The anxiety around our seemingly unlimited world continues to increase. Tactically I think we must become more discerning. But conceptually I think it helps to understand that too many options are unhelpful, and why. So when a new book titled,  INSIDE THE BOX: How Constraints Make Us Better, came across my desk, I interested myself. The book is authored by David Epstein who is already the author of the #1 New York Times bestsellers Range and The Sports Gene, and has worked as a senior writer for Sports Illustrated. The tagline for Range is Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World. I like David's questioning and relevantly contrarian approach and was eager to sit down and talk with him about how constraints make us better. David claims that total freedom is the enemy of creativity, and constraint its companion. He says, “Contrary to popular belief, the brain is not designed for thinking. It's designed to save you from having to think.” And thus all the thinking that too many options gives us has a cost. I ultimately interested myself in going forth with decisions by first, vetting them not for what is possible, but what is most probable. And shifting my mindset from wanting no limits, to understanding that less options is actually helpful for my mindset, and my life.  Sign up for your $1/month trial period at shopify.com/kevin Go to shipstation.com and use code KEVIN to start your free trial.

In January 2025, the Trump administration declared a national emergency at the southern border and directed the military to take control of large expanses of the border, which include major cities like El Paso, McAllen, and Brownsville, and designate them as “National Defense Areas”. In a recent Border Chronicle investigation “A War Zone: Minus the War” with the nonprofit The War Horse, which serves military communities, we examined the impact this is having on border residents, the types of military surveillance and hardware being rolled out in the national defense zones, and the impact these zones are having on the military and migration at the border, including federal prosecutors attempting to charge migrants for trespassing.For this discussion, I joined Sonner Kehrt an investigative reporter with The War Horse, and David Roza, an independent journalist, who covers the U.S. military to talk about our collaboration, and catch you up on more recent military developments, including the Davis-Monthan Air Force base in Tucson hosting Space Force Guardians and Fort Huachuca near Sierra Vista, Arizona, which is developing a new mission for U.S. Space Force, whose somewhat bizarre official song— yes, this is real— you can listen to here.

In this episode of Leaving the Nest, I sit down with longtime journalist John Barr to talk about what it really takes to build a career in media and how persistence, relationships, and authenticity still matter in a rapidly changing industry. Hear how John spent more than twenty years reporting for ESPN and now serves as an Investigative Reporter at WJLA-TV! In our conversation, John took us back to the beginning, growing up in a family with deep roots in newspaper journalism and discovering his own path into television reporting. He shares what it was like leaving home, finding his first job at a tiny station in Kentucky, and learning early lessons about rejection, persistence, and showing up when others won't. He also walks us through how his career unexpectedly shifted from local news to national reporting and how a leap into sports journalism ultimately led him to ESPN. We also talk about John's book co-written with Dan Murphy, Start by Believing, and how he reported on the crimes of Larry Nassar. He highlights the responsibility that journalists carry when telling survivors' stories and reflects on writing the book about the case and the realities of publishing. Finally, we talk about advice for today's graduates, from standing out in a digital world to why strong writing skills, authenticity, and real human connections still make all the difference. If you're someone who has been thinking of going into a career involving media and news reporting, then this is an episode you do not want to miss! Key Takeaways:  Relationships still drive career opportunities, so showing up, meeting people, and building connections can matter more than even a perfect résumé! Career paths are rarely linear. Investigative journalism requires emotional resilience because reporting on difficult cases means balancing empathy with the responsibility to document the facts. Writing a book begins with a strong book proposal and collaboration! In a digital world with AI continuing to rise, authenticity and strong writing stand out perhaps more than ever!

Rising electricity rates across the country are adding pressure to families and businesses already dealing with inflation in other aspects of their lives. Most Americans get their power from a utility that needs to turn a profit for its investors. And people are fed up with the status quo. “Across the country, the utilities have just gotten greedy and are asking for more than they need,” says Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes.  Some communities are considering cutting out the profit motive for utilities, taking on the complicated and expensive prospect of moving to public power. But switching from an investor-owned utility to public power is an uphill battle. What are other strategies for reining in corporate greed and making electricity more affordable?

Investigative Reporter at 'Bette Dangerous' and Substack, Byline Times, Heidi Siegmund Cuda explains the ‘separatist' movements as part of Russian-funded active measures to weaken and overthrow democracies, giving cover for imperialist invasions. Trump is to Alberta as Putin is to Donbas. All the talk about separatists is just a cover for invasion. The imperialist idea that Ukraine is not a real country but merely Russia's “backyard” is mirrored in the American imperialist theme that Canada is not a real country but is only a dependency of the United States.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
