Journaling literally reshapes your brain!
In this episode, we dive into the mind-blowing science of why we eat what we eat—with neuroscientist Dr. Alexandra DiFeliceantonio. She joins us to explore how ultra-processed foods hijack your brain's reward systems, how your environment influences your food choices more than you realize, and whether you're actually choosing that brownie… or if your brain decided for you. We talk about the powerful effects of food cues, how early exposure to certain foods shapes lifelong habits, and what new research says about the link between processed food and addiction. This conversation will change the way you think about cravings, willpower, and what it really means to “eat healthy.” If you've ever blacked out halfway through a bag of chips, this one's for you.Sign up for our newsletter here!For weekly episodes, come join the Foodie Fam!Check out our book!Chat with us on IG @foodweneedtotalk!Be friends with Juna on Instagram and Tiktok!

Za taborišči v Gonarsu in na Rabu sicer vemo, ni pa gotovo, da tudi vemo, kaj natanko so Slovenke in Slovenci tam doživeliVedno se bomo spominjali, so v dneh, ko smo obeleževali 80. obletnico konca druge svetovne vojne, malodane v en glas ponavljali voditelji držav, ki so se borile na strani velike, zmagovite antifašistične koalicije. A česa natanko se bomo spominjali? Junaštva naših dedov in babic? – Gotovo. In zasluženo tudi. A, priznajmo, tega se je menda vedno lažje, prijetneje spominjati kakor gorja, ki ga je povzročilo fašistično barbarstvo, gorja, na katerega je bilo potem treba odgovoriti z junaštvom. Pa vendar se zdi, da današnji svet še bolj kot spomin na junaške zmage potrebuje kolikor mučen toliko streznjujoč spomin na koncentracijska taborišča, na sumarne eksekucije, na posilstva, na mučenja, na stradež, na suženjsko delo, na popolno dehumanizacijo. Te nelahke naloge smo se lotili v tokratni Intelekti, ko smo – pars pro toto – spregovorili o izkušnji Slovenk in Slovencev v italijanskih fašističnih taboriščih. Pri tem sta nam pomagali izvrstni poznavalki te problematike, zgodovinarki dr. Marta Verginella s Filozofske fakultete Univerze v Ljubljani in dr. Urška Strle z Inštituta za kulturno zgodovino ZRC SAZU ter Znanstveno-raziskovalnega središča Koper, ki sta v sodelovanju z zgodovinarjem dr. Otom Lutharjem pred dvema letoma in pol pri založbi ZRC objavili obsežno študijo Užaljeno maščevanje : spomin na italijanska fašistična taborišča, v kateri so zbrana in analizirana pričevanja poslednjih preživelih z Raba, Gonarsa in drugih krajev groze, ki jih je za Slovenke in Slovence med vojno vzpostavil italijanski fašizem. V pogovoru z gostjama smo preverjali, zakaj so bili vsi ti ljudje internirani, kaj je pravzaprav pomenilo potopiti se v temo fašističnega taborišča, koliko se jih od tam ni nikoli vrnilo, kaj so tisti, ki so nekako vendarle preživeli, potem morali nositi na svojih plečih skoz življenje in kakšno mesto njihova izkušnja zavzema v našem današnjem kolektivnem zgodovinskem spominu.

Te dni, ko je vse v znamenju pomladi, dela in konca druge svetovne vojne, mora imeti človek železne živce, da se ga kaj od naštetega ne dotakne. Če pa ima srečo ali smolo, da je recimo druga svetovna vojna vplival nanj tudi s premoženjsko ali kakšno drugačno škodo, bo po zakonu, ki ga je koalicija vložila v proceduro, dobil 8000 evrov. Škoda je bila, rajtamo, sicer storjena hipno, kot se za vojno spodobi, izplačilo pa bo po obrokih. Junaški koalicijski poslanci so razložili, da se s tem dejanjem druga svetovna vojna pri nas simbolično končuje. S simboličnim koncem druge svetovne vojne ima razmišljujoči težavo, ker je simbolični konec očitno premalo za dejanski konec. Simbolično drugo svetovno vojno končujemo že trideset let, pa ni videti, da bi bili koncu kaj bližje, kot smo bili leta 1945. Vse tiste lipe, govori, novinarski članki in spravne slovesnosti so bile namenjene simboličnemu koncu druge svetovne vojne, ki pa danes – takoj ko odpremo katerega internetnih forumov ali pa podpremo katerega predmestnih šankov – še vedno traja. Ker so se očitno simbolični prvoborci iz devetdesetih izpeli, se je nova generacija simbolistov zatekla k edinemu, kar zna. Za simbol, ki bo končal drugo svetovno vojno, je izbrala keš. Če simbolično niso znali končati vojne pozivi k spravi in religiozni koncept odpuščanja, ali pa gerontološki fenomen pozabljanja, jo bodo končala nakazila. Sicer v obrokih, a kljub temu. Vojna škoda je bila od nekdaj zanimiva tema, reparacije tudi, a vse te zadeve so urejene in urejane z zakoni, tako da čudi, od kot zdaj takšna vnema po povrnitvi vojne škode. In ko gremo nekoliko bolj v globino novice o vloženem zakonu, uvidimo, da je poteza koalicije vsaj malo cinična. Je pa res absolutno simbolična. Kot pravijo predlagatelji, bodo izplačila dobili upravičenci, ki imajo status žrtve vojnega nasilja. Se pravi izgnanci, interniranci, taboriščniki in ukradeni otroci. Zdaj pa ciničen, ali pač butasti del zakona. Očitno ni koalicijskim poslancem nihče povedal, da praznujemo osemdeset let od končanja vojne in da žrtev vojnega nasilja ni več. Ker bi bili danes stari nekje od sto do sto dvajset let. Žrtve vojnega nasilja so večinoma že pomrle. In ker tako odškodnin, pa čeprav v obrokih, zakon ne bo mogel izplačati, ker jih nima komu, imajo poslanci v skrajni konsekvenci prav. Ker bo izplačilo, ki ga ne bo – simbolično, se bo tudi vojna, ki je ni – simbolično končala. Ampak se ne bo. Za to pa bodo, kot za toliko stvari v naših življenjih, poskrbele srednješolske učiteljice slovenščine in mojstri, ki urejajo slovensko maturo. Za letošnji maturitetni esej so slovenisti v svoji brezkrajni modrosti izbrali vojno tematiko. Ker je toliko vojn okoli nas in ker eno menda pričakujemo zdaj zdaj tudi na naših tleh, je dobro, da osemnajstletniki o njih malo razmišljajo. In so maturanti fasali Jančarja in Kocbeka. Z uravnotežnega stališča bi človek, ki ni komparativist, zapisal, da tema ni zgledno ideološko uravnotežena in da partizani na maturi simbolično izgubljajo vojno, ampak kdo smo mi, da dvomimo v srednješolsko slovenistično pamet. Menimo pa, da slovenisti in slovenistke z nenehnim obnavljanjem medvojne travme – s katero otroci, rojeni nekje leta 2008, nimajo popolnoma nič – skrbijo, da plamen druge svetovne vojne in slovenskega razkola vsaj na simbolni ravni nikoli ne ugasne. Večji del teh zaslug si seveda pripisujemo mediji, ampak tudi šolstvo ob politiki nima čistih rok. Če se človek nad tem priduša, mu šolniki nemudoma očitajo sindrom Trnuljčice. Češ, kako naivno je gledanje, da vojn ne bi bilo, če se o njih ne bi pogovarjali. Najbrž imajo prav, in človeška bestialnost je inštalirana sui generis, ampak vseeno se zdi vojna na maturi pretirana tema. Sicer pa je res, da slovenisti in primerjalni knjižničarji menijo, da je visoka literatura le tista, ki vsebuje travmo. Večja je travma, kakovostnejše je pisanje. Tako so pred desetletjem ob Alamutu maturantom naložili razmišljanje o samomoru; tudi letošnja tema, ko partizani, Nemci in domači izdajalci mrejo v snopih, ni daleč od ultimativne zateženosti. Ker če že otroci morajo razmišljati o vojni in če jih mora v meditativno stanje spraviti literatura … kaj pa, če bi jim dali brati Švejka? Gre za ultimativno protivojno knjigo. Ali pa Kavelj 22, prav tako. Ali pa Zbogom orožje. Ali pa Mladi levi. Razmišljujoči se ne more znebiti vtisa, da sta Jančar in Kocbek zapovedana izključno zaradi tega, da se nalaga nove generacije na kres narodovega razkola in je teza o mladini, ki si bo z razmišljanjem o vojni primerno trasirala pot v odraslost, približno tako manipulativna in dnevnopolitično motivirana, kot je izplačilo osmih jurjev desetim stoletnikom.

Today, we continue our conversation with Dr. Michael Camilleri, one of the world's leading experts on leaky gut, to separate fact from fiction on one of the most talked-about (and misunderstood) health topics on the internet. We get into whether leaky gut is actually the root cause of chronic diseases like depression and autoimmune conditions, whether you can test for it at home, and why some doctors still call it a “hypothetical condition.” Dr. Camilleri also breaks down the real science behind bone broth, collagen, and gut health, what stress actually does to your gut lining (yes, marathoners, we're looking at you), and why expensive supplements might not be the answer. Plus, we talk about the role of gluten, the truth about food sensitivities, and how everyday choices like fat and emulsifiers in your diet could be affecting your gut more than you think.To hear the rest of this episode, sign up for the Foodie Fam!For weekly notes on our episodes, sign up for the Food We Need to Talk newsletter!Check out our book!Chat with us on IG!Be friends with Juna on IG and Tiktok!

On this week's episode of the Talkhouse Podcast, we've got a pair of fantastic songwriters and friends who travel in the same musical circles, and who've both released disarmingly charming records recently: Clairo and Hannah Cohen. Clairo has been making music since she was a teen, and her songs and sounds have a remarkable depth and breadth of influence, from ‘70s soft-rock to more worldly sounds. Her early viral success pointed to a pop-star trajectory, but Clairo always seems to choose a more interesting sonic path over the more obvious one. Her third album, Charm, came out last year, and it leans into a bit of slinky groove more than she had in the past. Check out the song "Juna" right here. The other half of today's conversation is Hannah Cohen, who tapped a bunch of cool guests—including Clairo—to help out on her new album. Earthstar Mountain is Cohen's first in more than five years, and you can hear the care she put into it: It's an understated but deeply considered ode to her surroundings, the Catskills—and it sounds like that area feels. She made the record with her partner Sam Evian—a Talkhouse alum himself—at their upstate New York studio, Flying Cloud. It doesn't sound rushed, which is a topic you'll hear in this chat. In addition to Clairo, it features a guest appearance from Sufjan Stevens. Check out the song “Rag” right here. These two friends get right into a delightful chat that covers Cohen's record, including the mushroom that inspired its title. They also chat about how working on music with your romantic partner can be its own form of therapy, and they get deep into soundtracks toward the end, tossing around the idea of making one, even without a movie to hang it on. Enjoy. Chapters: 0:00 – Intro 2:02 – Start of the chat 2:30 – On mushrooms and 'Earthstar Mountain' 8:55 – Cohen on making music with her romantic partner, Sam Evian 12:30 – "Artists are so in tune with things on whole different level" 19:20 – On the song "Rag" 24:45 – "Take what you need from [my] songs; find your own meaning" 30:05 – On soundtracks Thanks for listening to the Talkhouse Podcast, and thanks to Hannah Cohen and Clairo for chatting.

In this episode, we tackle one of the buzziest—and most confusing—topics in gut health: leaky gut. Juna's dad has been asking about it nonstop, so we brought in one of the world's leading experts, Dr. Michael Camilleri from the Mayo Clinic, to break it all down. What exactly is leaky gut? Is it real, how do you know if you have it, and can it actually cause brain fog or autoimmune disease? Dr. Camilleri gives us the real science on gut barriers, how food and medication affect them, and what you can do to support your gut health (spoiler: fiber wins again).

In this episode, we continue our conversation with Dr. Michele Joanellis all about insomnia and why so many of us are struggling with sleep—without even realizing it. We dive into what happens to our sleep as we age, why menopause and post-menopause can disrupt sleep patterns, and whether it's normal to wake up in the middle of the night (spoiler: it might be more normal than you think). Dr. Joanellis also breaks down why your Fitbit might be lying to you, how to rethink sleep “opportunity” vs. actual sleep, and why your mom's late-night TV habit might not be the worst thing ever. Plus, we get into how much sleep you really need, how to help your circadian rhythm as you get older, and what to actually do when you're wide awake at 3 a.m.To hear the rest of this episode, sign up for the Foodie Fam!For weekly notes on our episodes, sign up for the Food We Need to Talk newsletter!Check out our book!Chat with us on IG!Be friends with Juna on IG and Tiktok!

In this episode, we are continuing last week's Q&A!! Have you ever wondered how long you're supposed to be sore after a workout—or better yet, how to be less sore? We're tackling DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness): how long it should last, what's actually happening in your muscles, and when it might be a sign of something more serious.
