Podcasts about Limb

Where your attention goes, your energy flows.Today on Coffee & Crystals, we're exploring Dharana, the sixth limb of yoga, and what this ancient yogic practice of concentration and focused attention can teach us about our modern lives.In a world filled with notifications, social media, comparison, relationships, work demands and endless distractions, Dharana reminds us that we have a choice in where we place our energy.Kadie explores how Dharana shows up both on and off the yoga mat—from finding your drishti and balance in Warrior III to protecting your energy in relationships, setting boundaries, navigating comparison, staying focused on your purpose and learning when something simply doesn't deserve your reaction.We also explore teachings around the restless mind from the Bhagavad Gita, manifestation versus focused action, slowing down when life feels heavy, and Kadie's own current wellness and yoga reset.And with the August 2026 solar eclipse happening alongside this episode, we're looking up at the sky too. The Earth is rotating, the Moon is moving around Earth, and we're living within a solar system that is constantly in motion—yet moments of extraordinary alignment still happen.Maybe our lives don't need to stop moving for us to find our center.In this episode:What Dharana means in yogaThe sixth limb of Patanjali's Eight Limbs of YogaConcentration, mindfulness and focused attentionDharana, drishti and Warrior IIIProtecting your energy and setting boundariesComparison and social media distractionManifestation + intentional actionThe Bhagavad Gita and the restless mindRelationships and knowing what deserves your reactionSlowing down and reconnecting with yourselfThe August 2026 solar eclipse, alignment + perspectiveCreating a North Star for your lifePracticing yoga beyond the physical posesYour attention is powerful.

More on the prohibition of eating a limb from a live animal - which applies to everyone, and regardless of whether the animal itself is kosher or non-kosher (though for Jewish, this prohibition would only apply to kosher animals). Also, the Noahides! Plus, one who has intent to eat a tiny bird - alive - or eating limb by limb... and when that intent has impact on one's liability for the physical prohibited act.

Booktalks Podcast Episode 112: We're wrapping up July with everything we read this month and looking ahead to our August TBR!

What if the peace you've been searching for isn't found by doing more—but by consuming less?In this episode of Coffee & Crystals, we're continuing our Eight Limbs of Yoga series by exploring the fifth limb of yoga: Pratyāhāra—the practice of withdrawing the senses and returning home to yourself.Together, we'll explore how this ancient yogic teaching applies to modern life, from social media and relationships to nervous system regulation, spiritual growth, and finding balance during seasons of change.We'll also discuss the symbolism of Leo season, the Lions Gate Portal, and the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine, including the Earth element and how late summer invites us to nourish, ground, and prepare for the season ahead.In this episode, I also share personal reflections from my own healing journey, including lessons from my August yoga challenge, returning to morning rituals, navigating relationships, and learning that sometimes the greatest act of growth is slowing down long enough to hear your own intuition.The meaning of the fifth limb of yoga: PratyāhāraLessons from the Yoga Sūtras and Bhagavad GītāWhy everything we consume affects our well-beingReturning to the natural seasons of lifeLeo season and what it teaches us about authenticityThe spiritual symbolism of the Lions Gate PortalTraditional Chinese Medicine and the Earth elementHealing relationship patterns and protecting your peaceCreating grounding rituals and morning routinesHow to reconnect with your intuition and purposeIf this episode resonated with you, please leave a review, subscribe to the show, and share it with someone who may need the reminder that healing begins by coming home to yourself.Connect with me:Instagram: @coffee_and_crystals_with_kadie#Yoga #Pratyahara #EightLimbsOfYoga #YogaPhilosophy #SpiritualGrowth #LeoSeason #LionsGatePortal #TraditionalChineseMedicine #Mindfulness #Meditation #HealingJourney #SelfDevelopment #WellnessPodcast #CoffeeAndCrystalsIn this episode, we discuss:

How do you know when a dog will truly benefit from a brace? Can a CCL brace for dogs replace surgery? What role does a dog hock brace play after an Achilles tendon injury? In Part 2 of our conversation with canine physical therapist Caroline (Carrie) Adrian, BS, MSPT, PhD, tCPT, we turn our attention to hind limb injuries and conditions and the growing role of canine orthotics in veterinary rehabilitation for the pelvic limb.We begin with a brief review of orthoses for the front limb, trunk stabilization and pelvic/hip support devices before diving into some of the most common indications for hind limb orthoses. Carrie shares how custom orthotic devices can protect healing tissues, improve function, reduce pain, and support mobility in dogs recovering from injury, managing chronic conditions, or requiring long-term assistance.Just as importantly, we discuss why quality matters. Not all braces are created equal, and poorly designed, poorly fitted, or copycat products may fail to provide appropriate support—or even interfere with healing. Orthoses should always be selected based on a sound diagnosis, patient-specific goals, and careful follow-up.In This Episode:Review of trunk support and hip stabilization optionsWhen is a brace the right choice—and when is it not?What can orthoses realistically accomplish?Conservative management with orthoses versus surgeryThe importance of custom design, fit, and follow-up carePotential complications from poorly fitted devicesWhy rehabilitation exercises remain essential alongside bracingThe risks of knockoffs, copycat devices, and inadequate supportSkin management and monitoring during orthosis usePelvic Limb Topics CoveredTrunk, Pelvis & Hip (or coxofemoral joint)Review of trunk stabilization devicesSupport for hip dysplasia, weakness, and neurologic conditionsThe role of pelvic support in dogs with mobility deficitsHow garments facilitate posture and why posture matters for functionStifle (Knee)Cranial cruciate ligament disease (CCL/ACL injuries)Three basic choices of careFunctional bracing following injury or surgeryWhy bracing won't help medial patellar luxation (MPL) Meniscal considerationsMatching the orthosis to the individual patientSetting realistic expectations for outcomesTarsus (Hock or ankle)Achilles tendon injuriesGraduated Flexion Orthoses (GFO) the balance between allowing appropriate tissue stress to augment healing while protecting healing tissue from reinjuryOrthosis ManagementSkin care and pressure point monitoringImportance of proper fit and ongoing adjustmentsGradual acclimation to brace use - the scheduleRegular reassessment as healing progressesKey TakeawaysBraces are medical devices—not one-size-fits-all solutions.Proper diagnosis and custom fitting are critical for successful outcomes.High-quality canine orthotics can improve mobility, comfort, and healing.Poorly designed or improperly fitted braces may delay recovery or cause additional problems.Rehabilitation remains an essential part of every bracing program.Find Dr. Adrian at CanineIQ.net.Her email is Info@CanineIQ.netCompanies and products mentioned during this episode:DogLeggsHero BracesThera-PawWiggleLess®HipLignWhether you're a veterinary rehabilitation professional, veterinarian, technician, student, or devoted pet owner, this episode offers practical guidance on how orthotic devices can help improve mobility, function, and quality of life for canine patients.Thanks for listening to PetAbility Podcast!

One year ago, Mama Joyce was facing an above-knee amputation after peripheral artery disease had progressed to its most advanced stage, chronic limb-threatening ischemia, or CLTI. Her daughter, Jae, called the Global PAD Association's Leg Saver Hotline looking for one more chance. We helped facilitate Mama Joyce's transfer to an advanced multidisciplinary limb salvage team with the experience, tools, and techniques needed to take another look. Today, Mama Joyce is not only standing on that leg. She is walk, walk, walking! Now, her extraordinary journey has been documented in a peer-reviewed case report published in Vascular Disease Management by HMP Global. I am deeply honored to be a co-author alongside Dr. David Allie, Dr. Kerry Thibodeaux, and Dr. Amit Amin. Dr. John Phillips and I welcome Mama Joyce andher daughter Jae back to The Heart of Innovation one year after we first shared their story. We talk about the fight to get another set of eyes on her case, the imaging and advanced revascularization that helped restore blood flow, the multidisciplinary wound care that followed, and the determination of a patient and daughter who refused to give up hope. We also discuss why this publication matters. This is the first peer-reviewed case report we have co-authored documenting the role patient advocacy can play in helping someone facing amputation reach an experienced limb salvage team. Mama Joyce's outcome cannot be promised for every patient. But her story is a powerful reminder of why patients should understand their diagnosis, ask whether all appropriate imaging and treatment options have been explored, and seek an urgent second opinion from an experienced limb salvage specialist when time and their medical condition allow.

Many people believe yoga begins and ends with the poses—but Asana is only one piece of a much deeper practice. In today's episode of Coffee & Crystals, we're exploring the third limb of the Eight Limbs of Yoga and uncovering why Asana is about far more than physical movement.

The practice of yoga begins long before you step onto the mat.In this episode of Coffee & Crystals, we're continuing our Eight Limbs of Yoga Series by exploring the Niyamas—the second limb of yoga and one of the most powerful guides for cultivating inner peace, self-awareness, discipline, and spiritual growth.While the Yamas teach us how we show up in relationship with the world around us, the Niyamas invite us to turn inward. They remind us that true transformation begins within and that the practice of yoga extends far beyond physical postures.Together, we'll explore the five Niyamas:✨ Saucha — Purity and creating space for what truly nourishes you✨ Santosha — Finding contentment in the present moment✨ Tapas — Building loving discipline and lasting habits✨ Svadhyaya — Self-study, awareness, and personal growth✨ Ishvara Pranidhana — Surrender, trust, and divine timingWe'll also reflect on the Cancer New Moon, exploring how its themes of home, intuition, emotional healing, and new beginnings beautifully complement these ancient yogic teachings. Whether you're beginning your yoga journey or looking to deepen your practice beyond the mat, this episode offers practical wisdom you can apply to everyday life.What the Niyamas are and why they're the second limb of yogaThe difference between the Yamas and the NiyamasHow yoga philosophy supports personal growth and emotional well-beingPractical ways to cultivate discipline, gratitude, and mindfulnessWhy self-study is one of the most transformative spiritual practicesLearning to surrender and trust the timing of your lifeWorking with the energy of the Cancer New MoonBringing yoga off the mat and into your daily lifeIf this episode resonated with you, I'd be so grateful if you subscribed, left a review, and shared it with someone who could use a little more peace and intention in their life.Thank you for being here, and I'll see you in the next episode as we continue exploring The Eight Limbs of Yoga.Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/kadiechron/Coffee & Crystals:https://www.instagram.com/coffee_and_crystals_with_kadie/Website:https://coffeeandcrystalspr.com/In This EpisodeConnect with Kadie

When is a brace the right choice? What can it realistically accomplish? And when might it actually hinder recovery? Caroline (Carrie) Adrian, BS, MSPT, PhD, helps us answer these questions and much more.We begin our two-part series on veterinary orthoses and bracing by focusing on the thoracic limb (front leg), trunk & pelvis/hip. We discuss the principles behind orthotic devices, common indications, clinical decision-making, and the importance of selecting the appropriate device for each patient.From shoulder instability to carpal hyperextension injuries, we explore how orthoses can improve function, protect healing tissues, reduce pain, and help dogs return to activity while avoiding common pitfalls.In This Episode:What is the difference between a brace, orthotic, and orthosis?Goals of orthotic management versus immobilizationConservative management +/- orthosis versus surgeryPatient selection: Which dogs are good candidates?The role of canine physical rehabilitation alongside bracingWhy custom fitting and follow-up evaluations matterThoracic Limb Topics CoveredShoulderMedial shoulder instability (MSI in dogs)The controversy surrounding hobbles and when they may—or may not—be appropriateElbowLimited indications for elbow orthosesPotential use in osteoarthritis to diminish the loadA lot of unknowns and potential for the elbowCarpus (Wrist)Carpal hyperextension injuriesWorking and sporting dogsPurpose of carpal wraps and performance supportTrunk Stability & Core SupportBenefits of trunk stabilization devicesSupports for hip dysplasia and Degenerative Myelopathy (DM) with video on our YouTube channelKey TakeawaysBraces are tools—not cures—and work best as part of a comprehensive rehabilitation plan.Correct diagnosis is essential before selecting an orthotic device.Proper fit and regular reassessment are critical to avoid complications such as skin irritation, pressure sores, or altered gait mechanics.Rehabilitation exercises remain an important component of recovery, even when a brace is being used.Coming Next: Part 2This conversation continues in our next episode, where we'll shift our focus to the pelvic limb (back leg), including:Trunk support and hip bracing reviewStifle (knee) injuries and cranial cruciate ligament diseaseMedial patellar luxationTarsal (hock, ankle) injuries and orthotic optionsAchilles tendon injuries and Graduated Flexion Orthoses (GFO)Functional bracing for recovery and long-term managementSkin management with orthosis useWhether you're a veterinary rehabilitation professional, veterinarian, technician, student, or devoted pet owner, Part 2 will continue exploring how orthotic devices can help improve mobility and quality of life for canine patients.Find Dr. Adrian at CanineIQ.net.Companies with products mentioned during this episode:DogLeggsHero BracesThera-PawWigglelessHipLignThanks for listening to PetAbility Podcast!

What if your life first fee isn't just about earning more — but about creating a practice that can truly support your life?In this podcast takeover episode, Linzy hands the mic to her biz bestie, Tiffany McLain — founder of The Lean In. MAKE BANK. Academy and host of The Money Sessions — for a bold conversation about what it really takes to build a life first fee practice.Tiffany speaks honestly and unapologetically to the therapist who knows they want a more sustainable practice, but still finds themselves pulled back into lower fees, insurance dependence, inconsistent referrals, or marketing that does not seem to bring in the clients they actually want to work with.She names the shift many therapists are feeling right now: the private practice landscape has changed, and the old ways of filling a caseload are not working the way they once did. But instead of responding by working more, charging less, or trying to compete with therapy platforms and AI, Tiffany points toward a different path.This episode invites you to think differently about your fee, your positioning, your clinical authority, and the kind of practice that can actually take care of you while you take care of your clients.If you have your life first fee written down somewhere, but are not yet living it in your practice, this conversation is for you.Timestamps:00:34 - Linzy Introduces the Podcast Takeover02:36 - Tiffany's Life First Fee Practice Framework04:22 - Why Referrals Feel Different Now05:14 - The Private Practice Landscape Before the Pandemic06:15 - What Changed When Therapy Moved Online07:14 - Big Tech, Therapy Platforms, and Cheap Labor09:01 - The Pressure of Lower Reimbursement Rates10:25 - AI, Burnout, and the Race to the Bottom13:00 - Why Life First Fees Are a Different Path15:46 - Why Therapists Cannot Compete with Big Tech16:49 - Returning to Deep Human Work17:32 - Marketing Beyond the Scaled Online Game18:58 - Start by Knowing Your Life First Fee20:55 - The “R to the Third” Client: Resourced, Ready, Recognized25:00 - How Specificity Helps Clients Find Themselves in Your Work27:19 - Where Life First Fee Clients Come From29:18 - Stepping Into Professional Authority31:04 - Linzy's Final Reflection and Community InvitationConnect with Tiffany McLain:Tiffany McLain, LMFT is a clinical fee strategist for therapists in private practice.

RUNDOWN Frustrated by another Mariners series loss, Mitch argues that Dan Wilson's quick hook of Emerson Hancock in Cleveland set off the bullpen dominoes that ultimately cost Seattle the game. He and Hotshot Scott debate whether the manager deserves the blame, discuss why the season isn't lost despite the club slipping under .500, and preview an episode packed with Mariners prospect talk, World Cup excitement, and another edition of Release Date trivia. The Mariners' ugly loss in Cleveland sparks a spirited debate over Dan Wilson's bullpen management, whether Emerson Hancock should have finished the sixth inning, and if Seattle is putting itself in impossible situations with its pitching decisions. Mitch, Brady, and Joe also dissect the confusing six-man rotation strategy, discuss whether Emerson Hancock belongs in the bullpen, evaluate internal reinforcements like Ryan Sloan and Patrick Wisdom, preview the upcoming Angels and Blue Jays series, and make their weekly "Out on a Limb" predictions. MLB Pipeline's Jim Callis joins Mitch to break down another loaded Mariners farm system, offering updates on Colt Emerson's development, Felin Celesten's breakout season, and why Seattle continues to boast one of baseball's deepest prospect pipelines. The conversation also dives into Kade Anderson's rapid rise, Ryan Sloan's ace potential, the upcoming MLB Draft, and how the Mariners could eventually use their prospect depth to chase a World Series. Mitch and Jason Puckett spend another episode doing what they do best—arguing over the Mariners, poking fun at each other's broadcasting habits, and turning small disagreements into entertaining debates. They also dive into Puck's upcoming trip to Spain, the Running of the Bulls, World Cup excitement, and the polarizing reaction to U.S. Open champion Wyndham Clark.   GUESTS   Brady Farkas | Host, Refuse to Lose podcast Joe Doyle | MLB analyst, Over-Slot Jim Callis | Senior Writer for MLB Pipeline Jason Puckett | KJ-Aren't / Puck Drop   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Dan Wilson's bullpen decisions, the Mariners' latest collapse, World Cup fever arriving in Seattle, and another entertaining round of Release Date trivia headline the opening segment of Episode 388. 26:50 | Mariners No-Table: Dan Wilson's latest bullpen decisions, the Mariners' muddled pitching plans, growing calls for rotation changes, and another round of "Out on a Limb" predictions fuel this week's Mariners No Table discussion. 1:00:04 | Jim Callis: Callis explains why the Mariners' farm system remains among baseball's best, evaluates Kade Anderson and Ryan Sloan's futures, and previews another pivotal MLB Draft for Seattle. 1:21:52 | Jason Puckett: Mitch and Jason Puckett trade playful jabs over the Mariners, preview Puck's Spain adventure, debate the Running of the Bulls, and discuss the golf world's complicated relationship with Wyndham Clark. 1:40:16 | Other Stuff: Justin Bieber at the NHL Draft, Mitch's Justin Bieber karaoke encounter, Phil Mickelson controversy, Buffalo Bills leaving O.J.

In Episode 38, we discussed reconstructive options for the lower extremity. Similar considerations exist for the upper extremity. The upper extremity, although not used for weight bearing and ambulation, is very important for human activities of daily living. In this episode we discuss the challenges and considerations for reconstructing tumors of the upper extremity. Payne CE, Hofer SO, Zhong T, Griffin AC, Ferguson PC, Wunder JS.

Zac Wolfe is known for his grit and determination. He is a great example of how you can live a full life with a spinal cord injury and still maintain the fire to push for better outcomes. A few years ago, Zac enrolled in a Department of Defense, SCIRP-funded clinical trial using Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (TDCS) to improve upper limb function. In this conversation we bring on Zac and the principal investigator of the study, Dr. Ela Plow of the Cleveland Clinic, to discuss how TDCS works along with the details of the study and what function Zac recovered. We also talk about the role of belief and determination in study participants, the importance of advocacy, why siloed thinking hinders research progress, how small functional gains become cascades for additional recovery and much more. This is an interesting conversation that I know you'll enjoy, so let's get to it! More info: https://u2fp.org/get-educated/curecast/episode-144.html

The latest highlights from the journal are set to give confidence when trying something new. In this podcast for the June 2026 issue of Practical Neurology, co-editors Phil Smith and Geraint Fuller bring a distillation of the wisdom found in the journal's pages. They explain the crucial role of a Zeitgeber for healthy sleep cycles, question the involvement of drugs like SSRIs in seizures, and share a transatlantic follow-up to the ABN myasthenia gravis guidelines which provides an approach to optimising over all patient well-being.  There's also a guide to recent treatment of Parkinson's using foslevodopa-foscarbidopa infusion, also known as Produodopa. Then the editors explore the structure of the retina while touching on optic neuritis, and finish with limb-shaking transient ischaemic attacks, an early warning signal for stroke.

Send us Fan MailOn this episode of the Talking Pools Podcast, Andrea takes a deep dive into one of the most important — and often overlooked — topics in the swimming pool industry: safety. With summer approaching and pool usage increasing across the country, Andrea discusses the real-world responsibility pool professionals carry when it comes to preventing drownings, suction entrapment incidents, and avoidable tragedies. The episode opens with two heartbreaking Florida drowning stories involving young children — one at a pool party and another at an Airbnb rental property — sparking a broader conversation about accountability, supervision, and the role safety barriers play in aquatic environments. Andrea breaks down the five types of suction entrapment hazards including: Hair entrapment  Limb entrapment  Body entrapment  Mechanical entrapment  Evisceration/disembowelment She explains how these incidents occur, why they remain a serious risk even in modern pools, and why educating homeowners and clients about suction safety is critical. The discussion also explores how damaged or missing drain covers, improper flow rates, aging plastics, and poor maintenance practices can create dangerous conditions. The episode includes a detailed explanation of the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool & Spa Safety Act (VGBA), including: Why VGBA compliance is about the entire hydraulic system — not just drain covers  The role of dual drains and unblockable drains  Safety Vacuum Release Systems (SVRS)  Maximum flow ratings  Drain cover life expectancy  Pump sizing considerations  Commercial inspection requirements Andrea also shares the tragic stories behind the legislation, including the deaths of Virginia Graeme Baker and Abigail Taylor, and how those incidents changed federal pool safety standards forever. Other topics include: Why drowning deaths are increasing in the United States  The importance of swimming lessons and active supervision  Water watcher programs  Airbnb and short-term rental pool safety concerns  Why cloudy water should never be ignored  Why pool pros should document damaged safety equipment immediately  Common dangerous pool games and behaviors that should be discouraged  Long hair safety around suction outlets  Why “touch the drain” games are a terrible idea  The importance of keeping gates and barriers closed Andrea also provides listeners with an extensive list of water safety organizations and educational resources including:Pool SafelyNational Drowning Prevention AllianceAbby's HopePHTA Step Into SwimEvery Child A SwimmerCDC Healthy SwimmingThis episode serves as both a refresher and a reminder that pool safety is not a checklist — it's a culture. Whether you service residential pools, commercial facilities, vacation rentals, or aquatic centers, this conversation reinforces why education, awareness, and proactive prevention matter.Follow the Talking Pools Podcast on all major streaming platforms and join the conversation on social media.

Stride Robotics Lightweight Power Knee Redefining Movement     This episode wrapped up Limb Loss and Limb Difference Awareness Month in a powerful way by looking toward the future of mobility, technology, and what it truly means to help people live again after limb loss. After a month full of stories about trauma, cancer, amputation, grief, fear, faith, and resilience, I wanted to end this series by asking a bigger question: once someone survives, how do we help them truly reclaim their life? That is why I invited Revanth, cofounder and CEO of Stride Robotics, onto the BAWarrior podcast. Stride Robotics is working to redefine mobility through lightweight powered prosthetic technology designed to restore strength, endurance, and freedom for amputees. I also have the honor of serving as an advisor for their company, helping give feedback from the lived experience of an above-knee amputee.   In this conversation, Revanth shared his journey from robotics and engineering into the prosthetic world. What stood out to me most was his honesty. He admitted that, early on, he was focused on building something impressive. But through conversations with amputees and prosthetists, he realized that innovation only matters if it solves a real human problem. That shift — from building something cool to building something truly useful — is where the heart of this conversation lived. We talked about the communication gap between engineers, prosthetists, and amputees. All three groups are speaking from different perspectives, and yet all three must work together if prosthetic technology is going to improve real lives. As an amputee, I know firsthand that we do not always describe things in technical terms. We describe how something feels. We talk about trust, effort, fear, exhaustion, balance, and whether a device allows us to live the way we want to live. One of the most powerful parts of this episode was our conversation around “mental load.” True mobility is not just about walking. It is about not having to think through every single step. It is being able to hike and look at the view instead of staring at the ground. It is walking into a room without calculating every movement. It is trusting your body and your prosthesis enough to live fully. Revanth explained how Stride Robotics is working on a powered knee that is lighter, quieter, more affordable, and more functional than many powered options currently available. Their goal is to reduce strain on the hips, back, shoulders, and intact limb while helping amputees move with more confidence and less compensating. We talked about battery life, USB-C charging, fall prevention, waterproof possibilities, loaner programs, clinician support, and even future data feedback that could help prosthetists better understand how their patients are moving in real life. But what I loved most was that this was never just a conversation about a device. It was about dignity. It was about access. It was about making sure technology does not only serve the few who can afford it, but eventually reaches amputees around the world who are desperate for mobility, independence, and hope. This episode is also a call to action. Whether you are an amputee, prosthetist, engineer, student, investor, donor, or simply someone who cares, there is a place for you in this movement. Stride Robotics needs feedback, connection, research, support, and people willing to help move innovation forward. Limb loss awareness cannot end with awareness. It has to move us into action. My hope is that this episode inspires you to get involved, ask better questions, support meaningful change, and become a beacon of hope for those still fighting to reclaim their mobility and their life.   Join the Movement. Bring dignity, independence, and mobility to all. Today, that’s YOUR Call to Action, your charge from this month of story telling. Be a part of the change, today!

"A soul's journey through this uniquely itchy epoch requires a far more nourishing approach" - Sarah Wilson, This One Wild and Precious Life Sometimes you cannot see the forest for the trees, but that is the writers life. It is a process. And maybe it will all work out in the end. And if it doesn't work out, well I guess, it is not the end.Today I share some of my trials and tribulation of the creative life and committing to the crazy idea to write a book (another book). Somehow talking about it I come out the other side with a fresh perspective. I also had a nice epiphany straight after so really, thanks for being here!And please feel free to share with me if this episode resonated with you.

And we're back... Who is Iggy sideways with? Cameo money. Jamie Rivers was in here pre-show talking speedos. Iggy vs. Met Gala. The Gluten Free Perc bikini situation. Golf talk. Our boss, John, comes in the studio to demand we be funnier. Iggy is out on “Gabby Golf Girl”. Limb lengthening surgery. What's the ideal height? Tim tells a story of having lunch with Wayne Gretzky. Iggy responds with his own Gretzky story. The audience is dubious of Ken's tale.

In this episode of HSS Presents, Dr. Evelyn Murphy joins Dr. S. Robert Rozbruch to discuss a complex case involving a quadrilateral amputee seeking mobility solutions after post-sepsis limb loss; the case was published in the March 2026 issue of "Grand Rounds from HSS: Management of Complex Cases." The discussion highlights the potential of osseointegration limb replacement for patients struggling with traditional socket fit, short residual limbs, and poor soft tissue envelopes. Dr. Rozbruch details the patient selection process, a multi-phase rehabilitation protocol involving gradual loading, and the improvements in proprioception and daily endurance. Touching on surgical innovations like custom 3D-printed implants and concurrent nerve reconstructions, this episode provides a fascinating look at how bone-anchored prosthetics are redefining independence and quality of life for amputees.

What if cancer isn't just a disease… but a split personality inside your own body? In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Michael Levin (Professor of Biology at Tufts University, Director of the Allen Discovery Center) drops paradigm-shattering insights that could redefine medicine, consciousness, intelligence...and what it even means to be human. He explains why he calls cancer “dissociative identity disorder of the body” — a breakdown in the body's bioelectrical network — and how this could open the door to treating cancer without drugs or chemotherapy, why “mind blindness” prevents us from recognizing nonhuman intelligence, and how “human” might be defined in a future of tech implants and biological augmentation. Dr. Levin also breaks down: - What does a body think about before there is a brain? - Can we regrow limbs in our lifetime? - Are we closer than we think to communicating with our organs via an app? - What flatworms reveal about how trauma and memory are imprinted in tissue, and whether we might one day overwrite trauma itself - What nonhuman intelligence could actually look like - How you might play tic-tac-toe with an alien - Real dangers of anthropomorphizing AI Dr. Levin also tackles some of humanity's biggest existential questions: - Are we defining consciousness all wrong? - How can ancient traditions and modern biophysics coexist? - Why compassion may be the most advanced technology we have From developmental biophysics to computer science to cognitive science, this conversation explores how intelligence may be woven into life itself — from cells to organs to entire bodies. If what he's saying is right… Medicine will change. AI debates will change. And our understanding of ourselves will change. You will never look at your body the same way again!
