Send us a textHow our biological clocks shape biology from the molecular to behavioral level.Episode Summary: Dr. Joseph Takahashi discusses circadian rhythms, exploring their biological basis, from molecular mechanisms to their impact on metabolism and health; the discovery of circadian clock genes; role of the suprachiasmatic nucleus, and how light, feeding, and oxygen influence these rhythms. The conversation highlights practical implications, such as the effects of artificial light and meal timing on health, and touches on emerging research linking stronger circadian clocks to longevity.About the guest: Joseph Takahashi, PhD is a renowned neuroscientist at UT Southwestern Medical Center, where he leads research on circadian clock genes.Discussion Points:The suprachiasmatic nucleus in the hypothalamus acts as the brain's central clock, syncing with light via the retina.Key circadian genes like CLOCK and BMAL regulate thousands of genes, especially those involved in metabolism, impacting health outcomes.Internal desynchronization, when brain and organ clocks misalign (e.g., from eating at night), can lead to metabolic issues like pre-diabetes.In mice, eating at the right time (night for nocturnal animals) extends lifespan by up to 35% under caloric restriction, compared to 10% with spread-out feeding.Artificial light, especially blue light at night, disrupts melatonin and circadian rhythms, while natural sunlight supports healthy eye development.Melatonin, a darkness-signaling hormone, is best for resetting rhythms (e.g., jet lag) at low doses, not as a sedative, and U.S. supplements vary widely in quality.Oxygen-sensing proteins interact with circadian clock components, hinting at links between altitude, metabolism, and health.Learning and memory show diurnal variations, with better performance at certain times, influenced by circadian modulation of synaptic activity.A stronger circadian clock, created genetically in mice, led to 16% longer lifespan and resistance to weight gain (unpublished research).Related episode:M&M 202: Why Do Animals Sleep? | Vlad Vyazovskiy*Not medical advice.Support the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

Send us a textCellular self-organization, cytoskeleton dynamics, and membrane wound healing.Episode Summary: Cell Biologist Dr. Bill Bement explains the dynamic world of the cell cortex, discussing how actin filaments and microtubules drive processes like cell division and wound healing through self-assembly and self-organization; energy dynamics of these processes; the role of rho GTPases in patterning; the implications for diseases such as cancer and muscular dystrophy, using vivid analogies and video demonstrations to make complex concepts accessible.About the guest: Bill Bement, PhD is a cell biology professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where he has studied cellular processes for over 30 years. He leads a lab focused on the cell cortex, investigating cell division and repair. His work emphasizes self-organization and cytoskeletal dynamics, contributing to insights into diseases like muscular dystrophy.Discussion Points:The cell cortex, the outer layer of a cell, includes the plasma membrane & underlying proteins like actin & myosin, which enable dynamic shape changes.Actin filaments self-assemble without energy input, growing & shrinking to facilitate cell movement and division, while microtubules, stiffer hollow tubes, aid in chromosome separation.Self-organization in cells, driven by energy-dependent feedback loops, creates complex patterns like mitotic spindles.Cellular wound healing involves concentric rings of rho GTPases and actin, closing wounds rapidly, a process critical for surviving natural damage from mechanical stress or toxins.Energy costs of cytoskeletal rearrangements are significant but likely less than protein synthesis, though precise measurements remain challenging.Cancer metastasis may rely on enhanced cell repair, allowing metastatic cells to survive mechanical damage while squeezing through tissues.Muscular dystrophy involves excessive damage or impaired repair, highlighting the importance of cell repair mechanisms.Bement's lab is developing tools for synthetic self-organization, aiming to manipulate cellular processes to address repair deficits in diseases.Related episode:M&M 220: Cell Death, Oxidative Stress, PUFAs & Antioxidants | Pamela Support the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

What do heart attacks, car accidents, and murder usually have in common? Most of the time, when any of these things happen, someone calls 911. It's one of the most reliable things we have – whenever there's any kind of emergency, here in the US, we know we can just pick up any phone and dial 911 and get help. Even if it's a phone that has no service. This is an episode where I talk with someone who has an unusual job. My guest today is Brandon, and he's been a 911 dispatcher in Nashville, Tennessee for 25 years. After taking emergency calls for all that time, he's heard just about everything. And today we'll get the inside scoop on what this job is really like. Also, a content warning – one of the things discussed during our conversation is when calls come in from people who are suicidal. So please, enjoy my conversation with Brandon.

Send us a textHow brains compute and learn, blending neuroscience with AI insights.Episode Summary: Dr. Marius Pachitariu discusses how the brain computes information across scales, from single neurons to complex networks, using mice to study visual learning. He explains the differences between supervised and unsupervised learning, the brain's high-dimensional processing, and how it compares to artificial neural networks like large language models. The conversation also covers experimental techniques, such as calcium imaging, and the role of reward prediction errors in learning.About the guest: Marius Pachitariu, PhD is a group leader at the Janelia Research Campus, leading a lab focused on neuroscience with a blend of experimental and computational approaches.Discussion Points:The brain operates at multiple scales, with single neurons acting as computational units and networks creating complex, high-dimensional computations.Pachitariu's lab uses advanced tools like calcium imaging to record from tens of thousands of neurons simultaneously in mice.Unsupervised learning allows mice to form visual memories of environments without rewards, speeding up task learning later.Brain activity during sleep or anesthesia is highly correlated, unlike the high-dimensional, less predictable patterns during wakefulness.The brain expands sensory input dimensionality (e.g., from retina to visual cortex) to simplify complex computations, a principle also seen in artificial neural networks.Reward prediction errors, driven by dopamine, signal when expectations are violated, aiding learning by updating internal models.Large language models rely on self-supervised learning, predicting next words, but lack the forward-modeling reasoning humans excel at.Related episode:M&M 44: Consciousness, Perception, Hallucinations, Selfhood, Neuroscience, Psychedelics & "Being You" | Anil Seth*Not medical advice.Support the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

There was a time in his life when Dan was in a pretty difficult situation. He was facing something that most people don't ever have to go through. Even though he was not a violent person, and he certainly was not any kind of career criminal, he made a bad decision and accepted a job that, looking back, he never should have taken. But he did. And that lead him to the tough spot he found himself in. Dan was headed to prison. His plea deal meant he could get up to 60 months. 5 years of his life. One of the things he found to be the most stressful was that he had no idea what to expect. Now we fast forward to today, and Dan is at a very different place in his life. A much better, happier place. He runs a very successful business, working as a Prison Consultant. When non-violent, first-time offenders are suddenly faced with the fact that they're going to do time in prison, they are desperate for answers and guidance. What to expect, how to prepare, how to get your time reduced, how to interact with the other inmates, and Dan helps with all of that. In our conversation, Dan told me all about his own experience – what he did that earned him that prison time, what his first day was like (which is actually a pretty hilarious story in itself), and how he shortened his own time. And he told me how he helps people today. Imagine if you've never even been arrested before, but you make a stupid decision, or you drive drunk and kill someone, or whatever – and you're headed to prison. Dan knows exactly how you feel, and he has the answers you're looking for. Also – this is a Flashback episode. Dan came on the podcast back in 2020, and I recently had a conversation with him, which you'll hear at the end of this episode. Since his original episode, he's been through some stuff that I never would have predicted. If you'd like to contact Dan, his website is RDAPDAN.com, and this is his YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@RDAPDAN1 Full show notes and pictures for this episode are here: https://WhatWasThatLike.com/220 Graphics for this episode by Bob Bretz.

Ready for a reality check on your wellness gadgets? In this episode of The Healthier Tech Podcast, we yank back the curtain on the brave new world of AI-powered self-care—and ask whether your “smart” coach is a lifesaver or a data-hungry overlord. What you'll hear in five fast-paced minutes: From step counters to mind readers Discover how today's AI tools detect stress in your voice, predict burnout from heart-rate variability, and tailor workouts on the fly—no human trainer required. Chatbots with couch credentials Meet Woebot and Wysa, therapy bots using evidence-based techniques. One has already logged over five million private conversations—yours could be next. Your breath, decoded Lumen's handheld sensor analyzes a single exhale to reveal whether you're torching carbs or fat, then spits out meal plans driven by machine-learning models of real-world metabolisms. Wearables that learn you Whoop bands and Oura Rings don't just track sleep; they study it, adjust recovery advice in real time, and promise a fitter, sharper you—if you dare share the data. Selfies for science L'Oréal's Skin Genius AI turns your phone camera into a pocket dermatologist, flagging pores and pigmentation before you spot them in the mirror. The privacy trade-off We break down the fine print no one reads: when mood logs, late-night journals, and breathing patterns become gold mines for advertisers—and how to protect yourself. Key takeaways: AI can supercharge digital wellness, personalizing everything from mental-health check-ins to nutrition plans. But unchecked, it can blur the line between self-care and surveillance. Use the tech—just don't let it use you. This episode is brought to you by Shield Your Body—a global leader in EMF protection and digital wellness. Because real wellness means protecting your body, not just optimizing it. If you found this episode eye-opening, leave a review, share it with someone tech-curious, and don't forget to subscribe to Shield Your Body on YouTube for more insights on living healthier with technology.

Send us a textHow dietary fats and cannabinoids shape brain function and mental well-being.Episode Summary: Dr. Steven Laviolette discusses the role of lipids, particularly endocannabinoids and fatty acids, in brain signaling and mental health, discussing how dietary omega-3 and omega-6 imbalances, prenatal THC exposure, and fatty acid binding proteins (FABPs) impact mood, anxiety, and neuroinflammation, while highlighting potential dietary interventions to mitigate these effects.About the guest: Steven Laviolette, PhD is a professor at the University of Western Ontario, holding a PhD, and his lab focuses on the brain's cannabinoid system and its role in mental health. He investigates how cannabinoids and fatty acids influence brain development and disorders like anxiety and schizophrenia.Discussion Points:The brain uses fats like endocannabinoids (e.g., anandamide, 2-AG) not just for structure but as signaling molecules to regulate emotional and cognitive processing.Prenatal THC exposure in rodents skews the omega-3/omega-6 balance toward pro-inflammatory omega-6, leading to cognitive and mood issues in offspring, but omega-3 supplementation can mitigate these effects.Fatty acid binding proteins (FABPs), especially FABP5, shuttle endocannabinoids like anandamide to degradation sites, and inhibiting FABP5 increases anandamide levels, reducing anxiety and depression without addictive side effects.FABP5 inhibitors show promise as safer alternatives to benzodiazepines.Both THC and CBD can induce problems during early development, challenging the notion that CBD is universally safe, especially during pregnancy.Dietary interventions, like omega-3 supplementation or antioxidants (e.g., L-theanine, N-acetylcysteine), may counteract the negative psychiatric effects of cannabinoid exposure, particularly during adolescence.The North American diet, high in omega-6, contributes to neuroinflammation and mental health issues, underscoring the need for nutritional neuroscience to address these imbalances.Related episode:M&M 165: PUFAs in Brain Health & Disease, Dietary Fats, Brain Lipids, Nutrition | Richard Bazinet*Not medical advice.Support the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

For our final episode for Season 7, we’re thrilled to welcome clinical psychologist and lived-experience speaker, Lumen Gorrie (they / them), to speak with us about gender diversity. Lumen is a queer, trans, multiply neurodivergent, chronically ill, and disabled person based in Naarm. Lumen is passionate about neurodivergence, gender, queerness, disability and accessibility, making systemic change, and (in their words) neuroqueering the heck out of things! We cover a lot in this chunky ep! Including: What neurodivergence means to Lumen and how to respond to when people say, ‘don’t make this your whole identity!’ Lumen’s path to discovering their own neurodivergence. Definitions: Lumen takes us through the difference between sex, gender, and sexuality. Lumen’s gender identity and their path to exploring and discovering this. Ways that Lumen experienced gender incongruence and dysphoria, and how they reclaimed connection to self. When an eating disorder is stemming from gender dysphoria. The interplay between gender diversity, neurodivergence, and other aspects of their identity for Lumen. What does gender affirming care look like and myths about gender diversity and trans-ness that get in the way of this care. Reflecting on gender affirming language. Lumen’s tips for those exploring their gender. You can find Lumen at their websites – LG Psychology and Appetite for Change Project – and on Instagram @brains.beyond.binaries and @appetite_for_change_project.

When you live up north, where the winters are really cold, one of the best times of the year is the day when you feel spring coming. That first hint of warmer temperatures. With the time change, there's longer sunlight at the end of each day, the birds start chirping, and everyone starts thinking about what they're going to do with this warmer weather. And the lakes that have been frozen over solid for a few months? That ice starts to melt. And there's a danger in walking out on the ice, because you can't always tell if your next step will be the one where your foot goes right through. And then you're in ice-cold water – and it's not that easy to get out on your own. My guest today is Maggie. She lives on a big lake, and one day recently when the ice was getting thin, she was thrown into a situation where she had to do an ice rescue. And within minutes, Maggie herself needed to be rescued.

Send us a textAre seed oils really driving chronic disease (and sunburns), or is it hype?Episode Summary: Dr. Brian Kerley talks about the health impacts of seed oils, their high omega-6 fatty acid content, and their role in chronic diseases through mechanisms like lipid peroxidation and oxidative stress. They explore how these industrially processed oils may contribute to conditions like heart disease and obesity, discuss the challenges of studying their long-term effects, and highlight the cultural and political dimensions of dietary trends.About the guest: Brian Kerley, MD is a family medicine-trained hospitalist physician who gained online prominence as the "Seed Oil Disrespecter" through his meme account, raising awareness about the health risks of seed oils.Discussion Points:Seed Oils & Health Risks: Seed oils (e.g., soybean, corn, etc.) are high in omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), linked to oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation, producing toxic compounds like 4-HNE and acrolein that damage cells.Evolutionary Perspective: The high omega-6 levels in modern diets are evolutionarily novel, deviating from natural omega-6 to omega-3 ratios found in traditional diets, potentially exacerbating health issues across diverse populations.Challenges with RCTs: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) often fail to capture the long-term effects of seed oils due to the need for extended washout periods (up to 8 years) and the pervasive presence of omega-6 in modern food environments.Cultural & Political Coding: Dietary trends like seed oil avoidance have become politically charged, with Kerley noting the polarization between institutional health narratives and alternative health communities, complicating public health discussions.Personal Impact: Dr. Kerley's focus on seed oils stems from personal experiences, including managing his daughter's mitochondrial disorder, highlighting the personal stakes in dietary choices.Related episode:M&M 192: Seed Oils, Chronic Disease, Diet & Religious Cults, Mainstream Medicine vs. Independent Research | Tucker Goodrich*Not medical advice.Support the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

If there's one thing children are good at, it's their ability to give their parents a good scare. When our son David was about 2 years old, we were at home, just a regular day, not much going on. At some point, either my wife or I, I don't remember which one of us saw it – but we noticed he had some kind of liquid all around his mouth. Like he had been drinking a smoothie or something. But there were no smoothies sitting around. So what was it? Then we saw the open bottle nearby – it was calamine lotion. You know, the stuff you put on itchy skin for some relief. And it's for external use only. So of course we had no idea how dangerous this was. And back then, there was no Google or WebMD to get answers immediately. We called 911 – and oh wouldn't I love to hear the audio of that call today. The 911 dispatcher either called Poison Control, or connected us to them. And they told us, thankfully, that calamine lotion is generally non-toxic. So it wasn't a big deal. But for a few minutes, to two scared parents, it was a very big deal. Recently in the Facebook group, one of our Tuesday questions was this: Parents – what was the scariest moment with your child? And you should see all those stories in the comments. And I thought – hey, this should be a podcast episode. So I asked some of the commenters there to just give a short version of their story by audio, and that's what we have here today. And this is the kind of thing we talk about in the Facebook group all the time. At the moment there are 8,862 What Was That Like listeners in that group – and we'd love to have you come over and join us in the conversations. WhatWasThatLike.com/facebook And now – some stories of when children gave their parents a big scare.

Send us a textA critique of SSRIs and pharma's influence on medicine, including SSRI-induced sexual dysfunction, suicidality, and violence. Long Summary: Dr. David Healy critiques modern medicine, focusing on SSRIs and psychiatric medicine, including: how pharmaceutical companies manipulate clinical trial data, ghostwrite studies, and influence medical practice, often ignoring patient experiences; highlighting issues like post-SSRI sexual dysfunction (PSSD), the immediate sensory effects of SSRIs, and their potential to induce suicidal or violent behavior; challenging the reliance on randomized controlled trials (RCTs) over individual patient reports; and more.About the guest: David Healy, MD, PhD, a psychiatrist and pharmacologist, has decades of experience researching the serotonin system and SSRIs, working across Ireland, the UK, Canada, and the US. He is a professor at McMaster University and a vocal critic of pharmaceutical industry practices.Discussion Points:SSRIs cause near-immediate sensory effects, like genital numbing, in most people.Post-SSRI sexual dysfunction (PSSD) can persist for years or decades after stopping the drug, affecting many long-term users.Healy argues RCTs prioritize averages over individual experiences, often missing serious side effects like suicidality.Pharmaceutical companies ghostwrite studies and manipulate data, with journals like the New England Journal of Medicine publishing misleading articles.Serotonin theory of depression lacks evidence.Industry tactics include dismissing patient reports as anecdotes and using high doses in trials to mask weak efficacy.SSRIs can increase suicide risk, not just during initiation but also when adjusting doses or withdrawing, as seen in cases like the Aurora movie theater shooting.Regulatory bodies like the FDA often fail to investigate adverse effects due to bureaucratic processes and lack of follow-up.Healy emphasizes doctors' failure to prioritize patient observations, driven by industry-influenced standards of care.Related episode:M&M 88: Depression, Serotonin, SSRIs, Psychiatry & Social Media | Joanna Moncrieff*Not medical advice.Support the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

Have you ever had something bad happen, while you were actually trying to do something good? It's kind of that old phrase – no good deed goes unpunished. There was a thread about this online. This is what one person wrote: “I ran in the middle of a busy road to rescue a kitten. I went door to door until I finally found the owner. The first thing she did when she saw me holding her kitten was accuse me of stealing it. Every single animal I've ever rescued I've either been ignored or yelled at for trying to return. One guy yelled at me to get off his property despite the fact I was holding his lost cat.” When something like this happens, it just doesn't seem fair. You go out of your way to do something nice, and somehow you're the bad guy. My guest today is Cesar. Cesar is one of the nicest people I've ever met. But there was this one time when he was trying to help someone. And he almost lost his life because of it.

In this snack-sized episode of Parenting Is a Joke, Ophira Eisenberg chats with comedy writer Rob Kutner about parenting teens, creative careers, and why his daughter called him and his wife “hippies.” Rob opens up about raising a 16-year-old navigating academic pressure, social anxiety, and her first heartbreak—with plenty of Gilmore Girls marathons to get through it. He shares how his 12-year-old son, who's gearing up for his bar mitzvah, is increasingly independent (and stubborn about button-down shirts), giving Rob more time to write everything from graphic novels (Snot Goblins) to animated series (God's Gang). The two discuss how their creative careers make them the oddballs in their communities, what it's like to be the “cringey” parent during your kid's first relationship, and the reality of working from home while your tween wants to be left alone with Legos and ramen. Also, find out why Rob's daughter roasted her parents' outfits as “coastal grandmother chic.” Thank you to Lumen for sponsoring this episode! Head to http://lumen.me/JOKE for 15% off your purchase.

In this episode of Parenting Is a Joke, comedian and late-night writer Rob Kutner (The Daily Show, Conan, The Tonight Show) joins Ophira Eisenberg to talk parenting while producing comedy—and building epic Lego cities. Rob shares how his son's rediscovered passion for Lego led to an IKEA-based organizing hack courtesy of his wife, complete with color-coded bins and DIY design books. He reflects on raising a sophisticated 12-year-old boy with a penchant for Frank Sinatra and Pokemon, and preparing for his upcoming bar mitzvah. Rob also opens up about balancing parenting with his writing career, including the unexpected silver lining of unemployment after the Tonight Show implosion—precious bonding time with his daughter. He and Ophira compare their anthropological backgrounds, unpack how Lego obsession evolves with age, and discuss the not-so-glamorous realities of parenting in New York. Rob also talks about his new book The Jews: 5,000 Years and Counting, offering surprising stories from Jewish history—including a Jewish sorceress in Yemen and an Ethiopian Jewish state—and pushes back on tired stereotypes about wealth and power. This episode is rich with hilarious parenting truths, obscure historical gems, and very sharp Donatello action figure fists. Thank you to Lumen for sponsoring this episode!

Today on the Matt Walsh Show, cities across the country are adopting the LGBT pride flag as their official flags. Wokeness is not as dead as we might like to believe. Also, the attorney general says that the FBI is still going through Epstein material. What is taking so long? And the media mourns as an entire family of illegal immigrants face deportation. They committed no crime, except the crime of coming here illegally, which is more than enough reason to deport them. And Times Square has a new statue. It's a 12-foot-tall overweight black woman. Why does this statue exist? We'll try to figure that out today.

Today, we're talking about a crunchy mom influencer, known as "Rose Uncharted" on Instagram, who recently deconstructed from Christianity and started sharing New Age ideas and beliefs. This is not to shame her but rather to draw attention to the false teachings and bad theologies that can influence even the most scrupulous people. We go over her past posts about motherhood and health and detail how she slowly spiraled into the unbiblical idea of a "Christ consciousness." Of course, this idea has been around for decades, but that doesn't stop people from claiming that it's a new idea. And we refute all of these ideas of a "Christ consciousness" with the truth found in scripture. This episode was sponsored by Olive, the app built for the MAHA movement.
