Is anxiety something to be embraced, rather than fixed? Why are more and more of us feeling the 'soul's itch'? How we can start living more meaningfully?Anxiety is often understood as a problem to fix. But Sarah Wilson argues that it can be a vital signal - a "soul's itch" calling us to deeper attunement with our moral purpose. In this talk, Sarah describes how technological acceleration, neoliberal society and disconnection from nature can cause us to miss these signs, and how we can live more defiantly and meaningfully.Sarah Wilson is multi-New York Times bestselling author, social philosopher and philanthropist. She edited Cosmopolitan Australia at 29 and founded the global I Quit Sugar movement.Don't hesitate to email us at podcast@iai.tv with your thoughts or questions on the episode!To witness such talks live buy tickets for our upcoming festival: https://howthelightgetsin.org/festivals/And visit our website for many more articles, videos, and podcasts like this one: https://iai.tv/You can find everything we referenced here: https://linktr.ee/philosophyforourtimesSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The guys take us on a track-by-track journey through the record, exploring their methods of adding "character" to songs, stretching themselves sonically to make the music they truly want, and how they're making social media work better for them without becoming part of the content creation machine.

This week, we're scratching The Itch to get Villainous! Amanda Lyberg of Eva Under Fire returns to give us an exclusive track-by-track breakdown of the band's highly anticipated new album. From the opening song that tells the story's last chapter to the record's particularly violent end, Amanda is making it clear that she's laying claim to her identity, regardless of what anyone has to say about it. We'll talk about the title track collaboration with Maria Brink of In This Moment, the huge upcoming tour with Five Finger Death Punch, and how to fool-proof an album for label suits.

Delivra Health Brands CEO Gord Davey joined Steve Darling from to discuss the launch of LivRelief Itch Cream, a new product designed to help relieve itchiness associated with eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, and other common skin irritations. Davey said the cream is formulated for sensitive skin and is hypoallergenic, fragrance-free, and free from parabens, petroleum, and SLS. The product combines Hydrocortisone, Calendula, and Chamomile to help reduce itching, irritation, and inflammation. In addition to eczema and psoriasis-related discomfort, LivRelief Itch Cream can also be used for the temporary relief of minor skin irritations such as rashes, redness, insect bites, poison ivy, poison oak, and poison sumac. Management says the launch targets a large and underserved market. According to the Canadian Dermatology Association, up to 17% of Canadians will experience atopic dermatitis at some point in their lives. Davey also pointed to the Eczema Society of Canada's 2025 survey, which found that 89% of respondents identified itch reduction as a key treatment goal, while 86% wanted better control of rash and skin symptoms. In addition, Psoriasis Canada estimates that more than one million Canadians are affected by psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. Delivra believes the new LivRelief Itch Cream expands its topical wellness and pain-relief portfolio while addressing a clear consumer need for effective, accessible, and skin-friendly itch relief solutions. #proactiveinveestors #delivrahealthbrandsinc #tsxv #dhb #otcqb #dhbuf #DreamWater #GlobalExpansion #DreamWater #LivRelief #CBD #Cannabis #Wellness #Topicals #Canada #ConsumerGoods #LivRelief #Healthcare #CannaTech

This week, we're scratching The Itch for a two-for-one deal! Ekoh and Lø Spirit have spent years forging unique paths as independent solo artists. But a collaboration a few years ago led to the realization that, well, they love collaborating. They formalized their alliance this year with a new band, Ninth Key, and put themselves on the map (and the charts) immediately with their debut single, "If I Wasn't Me". With a strong ethos and a stronger work ethic, Ekoh and Lø have set out to claw their way to success without a big team, cowriters, or AI behind them. Their determination and DIY attitude make them the exact kind of authentic, against-the-grain guys The Itch loves to root for. And their penchant for dropping nuggets of wisdom in conversation make them the exact kind of guys we love to talk with. Enjoy.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260621dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction. For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your ministry. 2 Timothy 4:2-5 A Cure for That Itch Mosquito bites. Athlete’s Foot. Poison Ivy. If you’ve ever had to deal with these itchy ailments, you know they are no fun and very hard to get rid of. You try this lotion and that spray, but the itch doesn't seem to go away. Time and patience are about the only answers that make the itch go away. As the apostle Paul wrote these last words to his dear friend Timothy, Paul was preparing Timothy to deal with a situation far worse than bug bites and skin rashes. False teachings, lies about the faith and salvation, and personal religious opinions were infesting and infecting the hearts of people. Such things go beyond irritation; they hurt and kill saving faith. Paul knew that a time was coming when people would no longer desire to hear what God has to say in the Bible. Paul’s words are quite prophetic for us since we are still living in similar times. Some books promote Jesus as a mere teacher of moral living. Others claim that Jesus was not and never claimed to be God. Why all the promotion of these and many other false teachings? Because people who don’t want to believe the Bible have an itch—an itch against God. They don’t want to feel accountable to God or live their lives according to his Word. So, the only way to calm that itch is to reduce God to nothing more than a lucky rabbit’s foot or a curse word. What is the salve for this itch? “Preach the Word!” the apostle Paul encourages. Preach and proclaim the Bible—the whole Bible. Let God work through the Word to do the rebuking and correcting. Let God set the record straight. And even if people will not listen, God still calls us to be faithful to the Word and proclaim it “in season and out of season.” May God strengthen us to do this always! Prayer: Lord Jesus, help me to always faithfully proclaim your word for your Word is truth and life. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

Vampire: The Masquerade is expanding its presence on D&D Beyond with a new 5.5E crossover product titled Bound by Blood, published by Ghostfire Gaming and featuring a new Kindred class and adventure. This move follows similar partnerships with other publishers, indicating a trend of rival games embracing the 5.5E ruleset. In a related shift, Renegade Games has announced it will discontinue its bespoke Essence20 system for new editions of its licensed properties like Transformers, GI Joe, and Power Rangers, transitioning instead to a modified version of Dungeons & Dragons 5.5E to reach a broader player base. Green Ronin Publishing has officially released Valiant Adventures, a new TTRPG setting supplement for the Mutants & Masterminds third edition system. Based on the Valiant Universe, a shared world featuring characters like Bloodshot and X-O Manowa, the release includes two main volumes: the Hero's Handbook and the Worlds of Valiant sourcebook. These supplements provide updated combat mechanics, a new “Hero Point” economy, and extensive lore, allowing players to explore this gritty and morally complex comic universe without requiring additional source material. Award-winning designer Mike Shea, known as Sly Flourish, has announced Rise of the Lazy Gamemaster, a new 160-page resource designed to complement his previous Return of the Lazy Dungeon Master series. Unlike his earlier works that focused primarily on D&D 5E, this upcoming book will be system-agnostic, offering tools, tips, and adventure outlines adaptable to various systems including Shadowdark, Daggerheart, and Dragonbane. Shea aims to provide practical advice to speed up preparation and enhance interactivity, with a crowdfunding campaign for the project scheduled to launch in early July. The independent TTRPG market has a new competitor with the launch of RPG Trader, a marketplace created by Ten Acre Games founder Hugh Lashbrooke to support indie creators. Designed as a specific alternative to larger platforms like DriveThruRPG and Itch.io, RPG Trader focuses on discoverability and flexible publishing tools, offering creators an 80% share of sales revenue. The platform distinguishes itself with a zero-tolerance policy for AI-generated content, an integrated print-on-demand service through Lulu, and a detailed taxonomy system to help players find games based on specific play styles and themes. #vapirerpg #valiantcomics #lazydungeonmaster #rpgtrader Valiant Adventures for Mutans and Masterminds: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/567952/valiant-adventures-worlds-of-valiant?affiliate_id=2081746 RPG Trader: https://rpg-trader.com/ Roll Big or Go Home Bundle: https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/k49Mnd Doctor Who and Warhammer to Cthulhu, Transformers, and even My Little Pony!

This week, we're scratching The Itch to get amphibious and delirious! We saw some toads, some frogs, and some excellent bands, and now it's time to talk about it. First, Aaron pivots his original plans in favor of an impromptu free (or suggested donation) street fest performance by Lip Critic and Delivery Boys. Will The Itch become fans of yet MORE New York acts? Then he sees some familiar faces in recent guests Toadies and perennial favorites Local H, along with Dallas's own Vandoliers in a night full of cow punk, nasty riffs, falling flags, and a Local H set that had a theme! Finally, KC and Dan check out Les Claypool pulling triple duty playing for Primus, The Claypool Lennon Delirium, and The Frog Brigade all in one night! When your night involves the son of a Beatle, a drummer with good taste, and something about cockroaches, it's probably gonna be a good time. And we hope you have a good time hearing about it. Enjoy.

This week, we're scratching The Itch for a class reunion! The Itch's Favorite Punk Band™ Winona Fighter is about to head out on the idobi Radio Summer School tour with Honey Revenge, South Arcade, Games We Play, and Chase Petra. And just in time to hit the road, they dropped a new single, "Bombs Away," their first new music since both versions of last year's Itch Album of the Year My Apologies to the Chef. Lead lady Coco Kinnon joins the three-timer's club to talk about the tour, the single, and how they proved to themselves what they're capable of with their wild, life-changing 2025. Plus, we discuss the band's return to Warped Tour, their desire to speak to political frustration across ideologies, their new PG and not-so-PG t-shirts, and how a date night can lead to an acoustic reimagining of an entire album. As always with Winona F'n Fighter, this one's a good time. Enjoy. Listen to The Itch Rock Radio Show Rock with us every Sunday night from 6-9pm CST on KCLC-FM in St. Louis. Outside the area?

Send us Fan MailTrent goes solo for a brutally honest talk about Air Force Basic Military Training changes, Special Warfare expectations, and the dangerous mindset that causes people to quit before they've even truly started. After spending more time around BMT and the Special Warfare training environment, Trent breaks down recent changes to Special Warfare flights, why trainees are stressing over losing dedicated pool time, and why most people are focusing on the wrong problem entirely.This episode digs deep into identity, pressure, expectations, and the mental trap of searching for “off ramps” instead of solutions. Trent explains why some people make it through the pipeline no matter what changes happen—and why others subconsciously start searching for excuses the second conditions become imperfect.Then he talks training philosophy, swimming adaptation, why your IFT pace should feel easy, how bad habits destroy candidates, and why purpose—not motivation—is the thing that actually gets people through hard selections.Bottom line: if you've already decided you're gonna make it, then the obstacles become problems to solve—not reasons to quit.⏱️ Timestamps:00:00 Another Trent Solo Episode 02:00 Working Around Air Force BMT 04:00 MTIs Know Who the Special Warfare Trainees Are 06:00 Carrying the “Special Warfare” Label 08:00 You Haven't Started Yet 10:00 The IFT Is the Real Starting Line 12:00 Changes to Special Warfare Flights 15:00 Losing Dedicated Pool Time 17:00 Why Guys Are Panicking About BMT Changes 19:00 Swimming Should Feel Like Running 22:00 Zone 2, Water Confidence & Volume 25:00 Stop Trying to Beat the Water 27:00 Focus on What You Can Control 29:00 Why Your Cals Need to Be Dominant 31:00 Old School Pipeline Stories 34:00 Looking for Off Ramps 37:00 The Guys Who Quit Easily 40:00 Injuries vs Excuses 43:00 Why Some People Never Let Go of the Calling 46:00 The “Itch” to Serve 49:00 Marriage, Commitment & Long-Term Thinking 52:00 Visit the End Goal—Then Return to Today 55:00 Attrition Rates Never Really Change 58:00 The Mindset That Always Wins 01:00:00 Purpose Over Motivation 01:02:00 Operator Training Summit Advice 01:04:00 Final Thoughts

This week, we're scratching The Itch to ride the wave! Wave Day II in Santa Ana, California is only days away, and our boys in Aurorawave are so excited about it that the whole band stopped by to talk about their signature show, which also features Lexi Layne, Playuh, and the live solo debut of Sonny Dread of P.O.D.! And of course we've got to cover their instantly legendary Shiprocked experience, where they won over the crowd so much with their beach set and impromptu video shoot that they ended up getting the rare back-to-back year invite for 2027! The guys have a lot to say about their time on the boat, including thoughts on networking with other bands, making connections with new fans, and inspiration they took from seeing Knocked Loose. Plus, we've got stories of Aurorawave's most dangerous drives, how reggae bands always end up on the beach (but not usually in front of metal heads), and, as expected, plenty of thoughtful insight on how to use digital means to build community with real people.

This week, we're scratching The Itch for etiquette! The guys caught a trio of VERY different shows with one thing in common: concertgoers in need of friendly reminders about how to act. But that's what we're here for, right? That and giggles. First, it's an early Father's Day as Dan takes his dad to see Itch guest Kenny Wayne Shepherd on his Ledbetter Heights 30th anniversary tour, where nostalgia and mastery were both on display. Then, Dan pivots to being the dad himself, as he and Hannah take their sons (and KC!) to see Bring Me the Horizon, Motionless in White, The Plot in You, and Amira Elfeky at a show that would gain national rock news attention for a rather unpleasant reason. (Don't worry, it had nothing to do with us.) And finally, we cover Pointfest for the sixth year in a row. But when a show's headliner is unbearably boring, the rest of the lineup has a lot of weight to pull. Did they succeed? Listen to find out as Dan catches Magnolia Park, From Ashes to New, Highly Suspect, Mammoth, and Blue October! And stay to the end for an etiquette proposal that you're sure to have an opinion on!

This week, we're scratching The Itch to get charmed! Our guest is drummer Mark Reznicek of Toadies, whose long-awaited eighth album The Charmer is out now. It's been nine years since their last album, but given the wild story of how their follow-up to 1994's platinum-selling Rubberneck was delayed all the way into the nu metal era, they're a band that understands the benefits of patience. Their endurance as a band has in no small part been due to the continued love and support they've received in their hometown of Fort Worth, where they've achieved cult favorite status. The Charmer was one of the last records recorded by legendary producer/engineer Steve Albini before his passing in 2024, and it deals with Toadies frontman Vaden Todd Lewis's struggles with depression and mental health. For our money, it's among the band's best works. Mark takes us through the process of recording the album and working with the famously opinionated Albini, and even humors us on a detour into Buzzkill, the Dark Horse/Image comic he co-created that played a part in launching the career of one of Marvel's "it" writers, Donny Cates. This is one we've waited 35 years for. Enjoy. And see Toadies on tour this year with Local H. You won't regret it.

Why do we feel itchy? So many listeners have emailed in with questions about itchiness, and presenter Anand Jagatia on the case. We explore why we itch, the different types of itch, the different causes, and why scratching can help with the itchy sensation. Anand puts your questions to an expert panel: Dr Sonja Ständer, professor of Dermatology and Neurodermatology at the University of Münster and and Gil Yosipovitch, Professor of Dermatology at the Miller School of Medicine at University of Miami. Also joining them from the University of Hull in the UK is Dr Henning Holle who studies the psychology of itch. He's got an itchy game for Anand, Sonja and Gil to play in the studio, but is it really as simple as he's letting on?

This week, we're scratching The Itch for a youth movement! Our guests are Chaya and Nyrobi Beckett-Messam, collectively known as ALT BLK ERA. They're sisters who grew up with a passion for music that led them to start creating at a young age. With strong family support and a penchant for engrossing themselves in various genres, they put their individual personalities and styles together to release their debut album, the fantastic drum and bass/rock hybrid Rave Immortal, just last year. Now they're back with further experimentation on a new EP called Our World. The girls join us to discuss the EP, as well as their experience navigating the alternative scene as teenagers and showing that they could, in fact, stand on their own as artists. Plus, they give insight into the challenges of touring while living with a hidden disability and the wild story of how they bonded and collaborated with Wheatus. Enjoy. As promised, here's ALT BLK ERA's reaction video as they play "My Drummer's Girlfriend" in front of their drummer's girlfriend, as well as Chaya making her guitar debut on that song at 2000trees 2024 and the band getting the party started at that show with "Upstairs Neighbours".

It's one of the most common—and most frustrating—complaints in the Emergency Department: the patient covered head-to-toe in hives, miserable, itching, and desperate for relief. In this episode of EM Pulse, we welcome back ED Clinical Pharmacist Haley Burhans to tackle the “uncomfortable” topic of urticaria. We move past the myths of one-and-done doses and explore why your standard allergy dosing might be leaving your patients itching for more. The Power of Second-Generation Antihistamines Haley explains why second-generation antihistamines (cetirizine, levocetirizine, fexofenadine) should be your first-line ED therapy, rather than the old school standard, diphenhydramine (Benadryl). Xyzal vs. Zyrtec: We break down the L-enantiomer (levocetirizine) and whether it actually beats its predecessor in preventing drowsiness. The “Double Dose” Pearl: For acute urticaria in the ED, 10mg of cetirizine isn’t enough. Haley recommends starting with 20mg for adults (or doubling the weight-based dose for kids) to see relief within 20–60 minutes. The 4x Rule: Guidelines now support up to four times the standard daily dose for refractory cases (usually split BID). We discuss the safety data behind these higher regimens and why they are tolerated so well. The Steroid Trap and the Rebound Effect Patients often come in requesting steroids but they are NOT the primary cure for urticaria. The Antihistamine Backbone: Steroids treat inflammation, but the antihistamine treats the underlying stimulus. If a patient stops their antihistamines and only takes a steroid burst, they are set up for a miserable rebound. Dosing Strategies: If you do use steroids, keep it to a burst or taper of 10 days or less. We discuss the utility of methylprednisolone (Medrol Dosepak) versus a simple prednisone burst/taper or a course of longer-acting dexamethasone. Beyond the Basics: Benadryl and the MABs The Danger of “Dirty” Drugs: Why diphenhydramine has fallen out of favor due to its sodium channel blocking side effects, anticholinergic toxicity, and psychiatric risks. The Future of Itch: A look at emerging biologics like omalizumab. While these IgE-blockers shouldn't be started in the ED, it's important to know about them to treat patients who are taking them, or who present with rebound urticaria after recently stopping them. Key Takeaways Go Big on Second Generation Antihistamines: Start with a double dose of cetirizine in the ED. It's safe, effective, and less sedating than first-generation alternatives. Discharge patients on that double dose twice a day. Think Long-Term: Urticaria pathways need time to “cool down.” Advise patients to stay on the prescribed meds/doses for 1–2 months, not 1–2 days. Steroids are Adjuncts: Use a short burst (
