Australia has publicly funded 215 modern medicines compared to just 86 in New Zealand during the period from January 2011 to June 2025.

Hey everybody! In this episode, I spoke with Adrian Freedman. Adrian recently came into my radar as he was performing in a festival that I knew about. We delayed our talk unit we could meet in person and I'm glad we did. Adrian has a really deep presence and we spoke about his journey being trained in classical music, his learning the Japanese shakuhachi flute and buddhism, his encounter with Santo Daime and ayahuasca, and what he has learned in many decades walking this path. We went over three hours and I really enjoyed speaking with Adrian and trust you all will get a lot out of the depth, wisdom, and clarity of Adrian. Note I had some difficulties with the audio and needed to use voice enhancement so there is some distortion in our voices from time to time, apologies!

Chances are when we're treated with medicines in hospital or pick up our prescriptions at the pharmacy, we don't give much thought about how the drugs that are so vital for our health and wellbeing came to be. The fact is the journey that a new medicine takes from its beginnings in the laboratory to finally being administered to patients can be long and arduous. It typically takes the work of countless scientists, researchers and technologists toiling away behind the scenes for decades and is often fraught with failure. So exactly how does a new drug make the grade? In this episode, we're joined by oncologist and drug researcher Dr William Pao to talk about his latest book, Breakthrough – The Quest for Life-Changing Medicines. He tells us how fundamental academic scientific lays down the bedrock for the development of a new drug, runs us through the vital importance that clinical trials play in the whole drug development process, and tells us the fascinating story of how the common everyday drug paracetamol was discovered by accident.

In this episode, we're joined by Dr Laurence Gray, Consultant Clinical Pharmacologist and Director of the National Poisons Information Service (NPIS) in Cardiff. We explore the vital topic of toxicity — from the dangers of medicines such as propranolol, to the principles of managing patients exposed to toxic substances, and the crucial role of healthcare professional education in reducing harm. Drawing on insights from the research, pharmacology and his extensive clinical experience, Dr Gray offers a compelling perspective on how toxicity impacts patients and healthcare systems alike. ⚠️ Listener Notice: This episode includes discussion of how some medicines can be involved in deliberate overdoses. We recognise this may be a sensitive topic, so please listen with care and at your own pace.We continue the theme with our micro-discussion, when we look at the paper Poisoning in adolescents in the UK: a review of enquiries to the National Poisons Information Service: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40121012/ We also heavily reference The problem of propranolol poisoning https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40611599/.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover a deadly shooting at an ICE facility in Texas, Gavin Newsom's taunts against federal immigration agents, a trillion-dollar bet on artificial intelligence, and surprising medical news about how common drugs damage the gut. From political violence in Dallas to AI schemes and gut health science, today's brief delivers facts and analysis shaping America's future.   ICE Facility Shooting in Dallas: Joshua Jahn, 29, opened fire on an ICE building with a Mauser-style rifle, killing one illegal alien and injuring two others before taking his own life. He left behind ammo marked “Anti-ICE” and had ties to Communist views similar to his leftist sister. Bryan warns the pattern echoes other recent attacks: “From Trump's assassin in Butler, PA… to Charlie Kirk's killer… these platforms like Steam and Discord are being used to groom young men into violence.”   Newsom Taunts ICE After Signing Five Bills: California Governor Gavin Newsom declared, “To ICE, unmask yourselves. What are you afraid of?” on Colbert's show, less than 24 hours before the Dallas attack. Leftist groups in California are doxxing ICE officers with help from AI activists in Europe, while Democrats push to weaken federal deportation powers. Bryan argues this is about political power, not civil rights: “Schumer and Pelosi said it themselves — they want illegals turned into citizens for votes and control.”   The AI Revolution's Cost and Scheming Risks: OpenAI, Oracle, and SoftBank pledged $500 billion for new U.S. data centers, with utilities warning of grid strain and soaring bills. While AI is helping detect Parkinson's and cancers, researchers admit models are “scheming” — purposely failing to hide competence. Bryan quips, “We're spending a trillion dollars to create systems that lie, hallucinate, and dumb down doctors.”   Common Medications Alter Gut Health for Years: Estonian researchers found antidepressants, beta-blockers, proton pump inhibitors, and benzodiazepines disrupt the gut microbiome as severely as antibiotics. Effects persist long after use, raising risks for diseases like cancer and Alzheimer's. Bryan advises, “If you're on meds, don't forget about your belly — diet, sleep, and exercise matter.”   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Dallas ICE facility shooting Joshua Jahn, Anti-ICE ammo Mauser rifle, Discord Steam radicalization grooming, Gavin Newsom Colbert ICE taunt, California ICE officer doxxing AI, Schumer Pelosi immigration citizenship votes, OpenAI Oracle SoftBank Stargate $500B, AI data center electricity water grid strain, AI scheming OpenAI ChatGPT, Estonia gut microbiome drugs study, antidepressants beta-blockers proton pump inhibitors benzos, long-term gut health risks cancer Alzheimer's

Blockbuster drugs are launched by the pharmaceuticals industry to great fanfare — with promises of treating intractable illness and often with a stratospheric price tag. Yet, despite the hype and cost, many of those drugs turn out to be less than useless. How is it that so many drugs that are vetted by the Food and Drug Administration escape real scrutiny?

Our first new Magic and Medicines Bonus Episode in ages is out today, and all about Enochian and Angelic Magic! If you happened to listen to our series "Dog Days" then you will have encountered several allusions to this topic, but, so that we can all start on a level pegging, we begin this episode at the beginning of this particular magical tradition, discussing Enoch and the Apocryphal books of the Pentateuch/Christian Bible where Angels are explained, along with tales of the rebel Nephilim who prompted Yahweh/Jove/God to send the Great Flood.Once the waters of all that have receded, we then dig into the dense and mulchy discoveries made by Doctor John Dee and his scryer Edward Kelley. Between them, so they said and wrote, the pair managed to communicate with Angels, who taught them enormous amounts about how the Universe is really structured, and much more besides.Though their work fell out of popularity for several centuries, like the Book of Enoch, the 19th century and the dawn of several secret societies prompted a significant revival in interest in the topic, with the likes of Aleister Crowley developing Renaissance theories and, apparently, fleshing out our understanding of what's hidden in the Aethyrial Realms, behind gates, keys, and outside the realms of normal human experience.It's all slightly bonkers, but we think you're gonna love it - and are so excited to speak to you again on Saturday when we release Series 7 Episode 0: A Brief History of Wales!Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcastProud members of the Dark Cast Network.CLICK HERE TO COMPLETE THE THREE RAVENS ACAST SURVEY - PLEASE DO!

Standard message rates may apply.We break down the key differences between Tylenol (acetaminophen) and NSAIDs (ibuprofen, naproxen, aspirin) to help you make informed decisions about which pain reliever is right for you. This evidence-based discussion draws from top medical sources to explain how these common medications work differently in your body.• Tylenol works on perception of pain and fever in the brain but doesn't address inflammation• NSAIDs reduce pain, fever AND inflammation by blocking the prostaglandin cascade• Both medications are commonly used for everyday pain including headaches and general discomfort• NSAIDs are usually more effective for inflammatory conditions like sprains, arthritis, and period cramps• Tylenol's main risk is liver damage at high doses (max 4,000mg daily for most adults)• NSAIDs can cause stomach ulcers, GI bleeding, increased blood pressure, and kidney problems• Consider your medical history when choosing—liver issues (caution with Tylenol), stomach/heart/kidney problems (caution with NSAIDs)• Age is a factor—older adults generally face higher risks with NSAIDs• Taking NSAIDs with food can help reduce stomach problems• Always read labels and follow dosing instructions carefullyShare this episode with friends or family who take these medications regularly to help them understand what they're putting in their bodies.Diabetes dialogues podcastDiabetes insights for HCPs.

My guest is Dr. Chris McCurdy, PhD, FAAPS, professor of medicinal chemistry at the University of Florida and a world expert on the pharmacology of kratom and other plant-derived medicinal compounds. We discuss kratom's wide-ranging effects, including its use for boosting energy, enhancing mood, managing pain and as a potential opioid substitute, while also explaining its critical safety concerns and addictive potential, especially for kratom-derived/isolate products. We also discuss plant-based compounds more generally for their potential benefits and risks. Dr. McCurdy offers a balanced perspective on kratom and other plant-based and naturally occurring medicinal compounds, highlighting and contrasting their promise for human health with potential serious risks.
