With this episode, we're putting on our music hat. For a program that relies so much on scoring and sound, it's not often we talk about the musicians and the music they make that inspire us. Today, that changes. Today, we bring you two stories. Each about musicians that our former host and creator of Radiolab, Jad Abumrad, loves. We originally released these stories many years ago, and both start deep in music itself. Then quickly, they dig deeper — into our relationships with technology, and ourselves. We start with the band Dawn of Midi, who straddle the intersection between acoustic and electronic sounds. Jad talks to the band about their album, Dysnomia, and how it's filled with heavily-layered rhythms that feel both mechanistic and deeply human, at the same time.Then, Jad talks with Juana Molina, an Argentine singer who accidentally became a famous actress, when all along all she really wanted was to be a musician. Special thanks to Dawn of Midi and Juana Molina.EPISODE CREDITS: Reported by - JAD ABUMRAD EPISODE CITATIONS:Check out Dawn of Midi at dawnofmidi.com and Juana Molina at juanamolina.comSignup for our newsletter!!

Dans la série Friends, Matthew Perry était Chandler, blagueur sarcastique, amoureux perdu. Peut-être le personnage le plus attendu des fans et aussi le mieux payé. Le 23 octobre 2023, on l'a retrouvé mort dans sa maison de Los Angeles. On a cru à une noyade dans un jacuzzi mais c'est bien une overdose de kétamine, un puissant anesthésiant devenu la drogue à la mode des célébrités qui l'a emporté. Que s'est-il passé derrière les murs de la villa de Pacific Palisades ?

Building on our established styles from previous editions, we present a vibrant range of melodic, modular, symphonic, and sequential sounds created by artists who have featured on our airwaves over many years. Just a mention of Enigmatic Obsession, the creative project of Jens Gad, one of the two founders of the legendary formation Enigma. While Michael Cretu is the more widely recognised figure, Jens Gad played a crucial role in shaping Enigma's distinctive sound. We were deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Mark Dwane on 24th July, following the recent discovery of his cancer diagnosis and limited prognosis. In homage to Mark's remarkable talent with MIDI guitar, we have selected two tracks from the 2019 album 'Martian Apparitions,' which reimagines his 1988 debut release, ‘The Monuments Of Mars.'

Le continent africain connaît les taux d'urbanisation les plus rapides au monde. À l'horizon 2050, ses zones urbaines devraient accueillir 950 millions d'habitants supplémentaires, selon Africapolis, une base de données recensant les dynamiques d'urbanisation du continent. (Rediffusion) Une progression et des enjeux en conséquence avec, en premier lieu, celui de l'alimentation. À mesure que le besoin en habitations et infrastructures grandit, la pression sur le foncier s'accélère au détriment des jardins partagés et des potagers qui jouent pourtant un rôle essentiel pour les villes et leurs périphéries. À la fois source de nourriture, d'emploi, de lien social et d'îlot de fraîcheur, l'agriculture urbaine est pourtant délaissée des politiques publiques. Comment valoriser le maraichage au coeur des villes ? Quelles sont les innovations innovantes sur lesquelles s'appuyer ? Avec : • Christine Aubry, directrice de la Chaire agriculture urbaine à Agro Paris Tech, et co-directrice des ouvrages Agricultures urbaines en Afrique subsaharienne francophone et à Madagascar (Presses universitaires du Midi, 2023) et Agriculture urbaine et biodiversités - Vers une ville verte et agroécologique (Apogée, 2025) • Moctar Diouf, géographe, chercheur associé au Laboratoire Pléiade.

In this episode of You Are Not Broken, Dr. Kelly Casperson recaps the recent FDA event dedicated to women's health, spotlighting the critical role of hormones like testosterone and estrogen. She shares key insights from expert panels, explains why better education and prescribing practices are urgently needed among physicians, and reveals exciting details about her upcoming book on menopause. Kelly also explores the mental health impact of hormonal changes during perimenopause and offers a preview of her nationwide book tour aimed at rewriting the conversation around midlife health. Key Takeaways The You Are Not Broken podcast has surpassed 4 million downloads. The FDA event brought women's health—and hormones—into the spotlight. There is a critical need for female-dose testosterone to be recognized and approved. Changing outdated prescribing habits is key to improving women's health care. Hormones are powerful tools for preventing disease and improving quality of life. Menopause and hormonal health education remain dangerously underrepresented in medicine. Kelly's upcoming book aims to bust myths and empower women with facts. Her book tour will bring this conversation to cities across the country.

Quatorze présidents de la République y seront élus. 150 ans après les lois constitutionnelles qui entérinent la proclamation de la IIIe République, Virginie Girod vous emmène en visite guidée dans ce lieu incontournable de la vie parlementaire française, en compagnie de Frédéric Lacaille, conservateur en chef, chargé des peintures du XIXe siècle et des Galeries Historiques au château de Versailles.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

The Sleepy Summer continues and with the lull in new gear and events, we're sitting down and looking inwards. The creative process is full of peaks and troughs, writer's block and creative droughts are part of the course. The question lies in how we deal with these eventualities.

This week I'm joined by Dr. Christopher Wallis, a urologist and researcher whose groundbreaking work shows something that might just change the way you think about surgery and medicine: patients are more likely to survive—and thrive—when operated on by a female surgeon and physician. We dive deep into the data, including studies across multiple countries and specialties, and unpack the consistent 5% reduction in 30-day mortality rates when the surgeon is a woman. Dr. Wallis also discusses how female anesthesiologists impact outcomes, why communication and trust matter so much in surgery, and how female physicians are often unfairly penalized for complications. This episode is more than stats—it's about challenging the system, confronting bias, and empowering both patients and physicians to make more informed, conscious choices. If you've ever wondered whether gender matters in medicine, or how we can build a better, fairer healthcare system—don't miss this one. We cover: ✔️ Why female surgeons lead to better outcomes ✔️ The role of bias and the “rigged” system women in medicine face ✔️ What patients should look for in a surgical team ✔️ Why systemic change is long overdue in healthcare Let's get into it.

Let's be honest. Losing belly fat in midlife isn't about cutting carbs or working out harder. In this episode Chalene Johnson breaks down what actually works and what doesn't when it comes to stubborn menopausal and perimenopausal belly fat. If you feel stuck, bloated, or frustrated despite doing everything right, there's a reason. Hormonal shifts and changes in metabolism make old strategies less effective. You'll learn two different approaches—one that's realistic and sustainable, and one for when you're ready to go all in. Plus, the supplements, workouts, and daily habits that helped Chalene see real results. Watch this episode on YouTube this Sunday!! https://www.youtube.com/@chalenejohnson/videos

This week on the You Are Not Broken podcast, I'm joined by the incredible Dr. Rocio Salas-Whalen, an expert in obesity medicine who breaks down the real science behind GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy. Spoiler: they've actually been around since 2005 for diabetes, and only now are we waking up to their potential in treating obesity as the complex disease it is—not a failure of willpower. We talk about how COVID changed the national conversation on obesity, shifting it from “personal choice” to a serious health risk that deserves real medical treatment. We get into how GLP-1s work, why maintaining muscle is critical during weight loss, and the often-ignored psychological shifts that happen when your body changes rapidly. Dr. Salas-Waelin also clears up the noise: Are GLP-1s safe? Are they just for the ultra-rich? Will they be lifelong meds or stepping stones? And what's next in hormone-based obesity treatment? This is a must-listen if you're using—or considering—GLP-1s, working in healthcare, or just want to understand what's really going on behind the headlines. In this episode, we cover: Why GLP-1s aren't actually new—and why that matters How COVID helped the world reframe obesity as a disease The importance of muscle preservation during weight loss How to make sure your protein intake supports your body What happens to your brain when your body changes fast Myths and misconceptions about the safety and use of GLP-1s The future of GLP-1s: personalized care, better formulations, and smarter dosing Why body composition (not just weight) should be part of the conversation This episode is about science, empowerment, and getting real with the tools we have to help people feel better in their bodies—inside and out.

Most people assume creatine is only for bodybuilders, but new research is challenging that belief. In this episode, Chalene dives into the surprising, science-backed benefits of creatine for women, particularly those in midlife. From brain health and bone density to hormonal support and cognitive function, this supplement might be one of the most underrated tools for aging powerfully. She also busts common myths like weight gain and bloating, and explains why some experts are calling it “the magnesium of 2025.” If you're curious about how to take it, which brands are trustworthy, and how to avoid getting scammed, this episode lays it all out.

“I have a regular chat with a friend of mine in New Zealand. He's a tetraplegic and a musician, so he invents his own music instruments that he can play with his limited motion, and he can send me his instrument over MIDI to where I am across the ocean and we can play together and we can have an engagement. It's not possible for him to come to see me in Europe. It would be so expensive, and a lot of work. So, you know, thank God there's the internet for him, you know. He gets to participate, he has remote concerts, he still plays with his friends. It's really special.” – Rebekah Wilson This episode is the second half of my conversation with Source Elements CEO and remote collaboration specialist Rebekah Wilson as we discuss how physics and neurology collide when it comes to reducing latency, how the pandemic transformed online music collaboration and gave rise to today's generation of at-home musicians, and where Rebekah sees sound, technology, and music itself heading in the future, over both the coming decades and even generations from now.

(0:00:01) - Impact of Latency on Music CollaborationWe continue our talk about the science of latency, and Rebekah explains how it impacts music in ways that our brains only dimly perceive. “If you add a little bit of latency onto that,” she says, “music's like, one, two... three… music's not very friendly to that [sort of] latency.” She tells us more about how our brains unconsciously adapt to latency, and how technology relies both on improving speed and taking advantage of our ability to filter out information gaps. “What's happening is that you're anticipating it based on this model that's in your brain,” Rebekah explains. “For example, every time you look at a wall or your surroundings, if it's not moving, your brain's not processing it.”(0:06:02) - Advancements in Remote Music CollaborationShe talks about how the COVID-19 pandemic's lockdown phase led to a boom in online collaboration, some of which continues to thrive today. “There remained a group of people,” she says, “a small group of people, you know, scattered around the world… who were like, ‘You know what? Some interesting things came out of this. Some interesting artistic development is possible here and it's worth pursuing.” We discuss the technical and creative innovations that emerged from that period, and where they might lead in the years to come as we continue to innovate. “What we love as humans,” Rebekah says, “is to seek new forms of expression. This is what we do, we're adventurers. So we go out, we go into the desert, we go out into the oceans, and we look for where something new is. And you know, music and performance and being together on the internet is still very new for us as humans.”(0:12:42) - Expanding Music Collaboration With TechnologyOur conversation wraps up as we continue to talk about online collaboration and creative efforts that can now
Episode 328: Should I take hormones? In this episode, I dive deep into the evolving conversation around hormone therapy—where we've been, where we are, and where we need to go. If you've been confused, scared, or unsure about hormones, this one's for you. I break down the myths, share the science, and explain why education—not fear—should drive our health decisions. I talk about the crucial difference between vaginal and systemic hormones, the benefits of both, and why so many women are missing out simply because they've never been properly informed. I also touch on the role of GLP-1 medications, not just for weight, but as part of a broader discussion around midlife health. We also get into the realities of perimenopause—what's normal, what's not, and how to stop dismissing symptoms as “just aging.” I explain why hormone therapy isn't just about hot flashes—it's a longevity and quality-of-life tool. The truth? Living decades post-menopause without hormones can come with real risks. But with the right education, you get to choose what's right for you. Reminder: knowledge is power—and the foundation of empowered healthcare. Takeaways: The narrative around hormone therapy is changing—from fear-based to informed and empowering. Education is the single most important tool in making good decisions about your health. Vaginal estrogen and DHEA are safe and effective for many postmenopausal women. Perimenopause isn't just “normal aging”—hormonal shifts can cause real symptoms worth treating. GLP-1 medications are part of a bigger picture of metabolic and hormonal health. It's never too late: women post-menopause can still benefit from hormone therapy. Hormones play a critical role in preventive health, including protecting your bones and brain. We need to stop misunderstanding breast cancer risk in the context of hormone therapy. Choosing to live without hormones comes with its own set of risks—know them before deciding.

Episode 327: Bladder Leakage Is Common, But That Doesn't Mean It's Normal — with Dr. Alex Rogers I'm joined this week by my brilliant colleague and fellow urologist, Dr. Alex Rogers, for a candid, informative conversation about something way too many people silently struggle with: bladder leakage. We're two urologists talking all things pee — from stress incontinence to overactive bladder, and everything in between. Whether you're dealing with a sudden urge to run to the bathroom, leaking when you laugh or sneeze, or you're just confused about what's going on down there, this episode is for you. We break down the two most common types of bladder leakage — overactive bladder and stress urinary incontinence — and explain why they require totally different treatment approaches. We also talk about the huge impact of hormones on bladder health, especially in menopause (yes, estrogen matters here too!). Dr. Rogers and I dive into: Why bladder leakage is so common — and why we shouldn't normalize it The real science behind overactive bladder Why Botox is an underutilized but super effective treatment option How pelvic floor therapy fits into the bigger picture What's new and exciting in urology (hello, neuromodulation and telehealth) The frustrating role of insurance in limiting access to care How to find a provider who actually knows what they're doing when it comes to bladder health This isn't just a “deal with it” issue — it's a quality of life issue. And the good news? There are solutions. Real, evidence-based, life-changing options. But only if we talk about it. So let's talk. Takeaways: Bladder leakage is common but under-discussed Hormonal changes play a huge role in bladder function Overactive bladder ≠ stress incontinence — and treatments vary Botox is a powerful and underutilized option Telemedicine and new tech are changing the game Education empowers patients to advocate for better care Insurance hurdles are real — and we need to fight for better access Find the right specialist — not all care is created equal Let's stop suffering in silence and start empowering ourselves and our patients with facts, not shame.

326. Australia, Testosterone, Mast Cells and More In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Ceri Cashell for a wide-ranging conversation that spans continents and dives deep into women's health—from hormones to mast cells to medical mindset. Dr. Cashell and I talk about what we're seeing in clinical practice and what women around the world are still fighting for: access, advocacy, and actual answers. We unpack the critical role of testosterone in women's health (yes, women have and need testosterone), and explore how cultural perceptions—especially around sexuality—still shape what treatments women are offered or denied. We also talk about mast cell activation syndrome and how it might explain so many symptoms that often get brushed off or misdiagnosed in women. We get into why vaginal DHEA is so underutilized, how lifestyle changes make a real impact, and why curiosity in medicine is a superpower. There's also a deep dive into the hormone–mental health connection and why so many women are struggling in silence because of outdated medical thinking. This episode is a reminder: women's health is not niche, and we deserve better. Takeaways: Testosterone isn't optional—it's vital for women's health, especially during midlife. Cultural norms around sexuality still impact the care women receive. Mast cell activation syndrome might be the missing puzzle piece for many women with unexplained symptoms. We need more advocacy to break through the outdated thinking that limits women's treatment options. Lifestyle changes matter—more than most doctors admit. Staying curious as a clinician can change the game for patients. Vaginal DHEA is safe, effective, and overlooked far too often. Hormones are deeply connected to mental health—this isn't just about libido. Access to hormone therapy is often blocked by stigma, not science. Education and awareness are the keys to transforming women's healthcare.

This week, I sat down with the radiant Whitni Miller, also known as BDEmoves on Instagram, a queer sex educator and pleasure coach who's changing the game when it comes to how we talk about sex, desire, and embodiment, especially in the queer community. Together, we explored what it really means to be embodied in midlife and why so many of us still struggle to feel sexually safe—not just physically, but emotionally and relationally. Whitni brings a trauma-informed lens to her work, helping people unpack shame, regulate their nervous systems, and come back home to themselves. We talked about: Why safety (not spontaneity) is the foundation of good sex How queer and same-sex couples deal with libido differences What late bloomers can teach us about authenticity and desire The power of non-sexual touch in long-term relationships How responsive desire isn't broken—it's just misunderstood The absolute joy of reclaiming play and pleasure at any age Whitni also got real about what it takes to share accurate, pleasure-centered sex ed online in the face of constant censorship. Hint: It's hard, it's frustrating, and it's absolutely necessary. She's a fierce advocate for creating digital and real-life spaces where people—especially queer folks—can learn, explore, and thrive. If you've ever wondered, What can we learn from the queer community about sex, intimacy, and communication?—this episode is for you. Whitni's work is bold, honest, and full of compassion. Follow her @bdemoves and check out her offerings for late bloomers, folks navigating WLW relationships, and anyone looking to deepen their connection with themselves and their partners. Takeaways: ✨ Sexual safety is foundational to desire—not optional. ✨ Queer relationships offer a refreshing reframe of intimacy and play. ✨ Scheduling sex is not unsexy—it's smart, respectful, and hot. ✨ Responsive desire is normal, especially in midlife and long-term partnerships. ✨ Pleasure-first education challenges societal norms that prioritize performance. ✨ We need more trauma-informed, inclusive sex ed—and we need it now. https://www.instagram.com/bde.moves/ Want more honest, empowering conversations like this one?Preorder my Next Book share this episode, and leave a review to help others find this important work.

Peptides are everywhere right now — hyped by influencers, marketed as the next big thing in anti-aging, fat loss, healing, and even libido. But are they actually safe? Are any of them FDA approved? And what's the real difference between the peptides found in skincare and supplements vs. the ones people are injecting? In this episode, Chalene Johnson breaks down the facts, shares jaw-dropping stories, and reveals the truth about what works, what's risky, and what questions every consumer should be asking before jumping on the peptide bandwagon.
