Prostate cancer may sound daunting, but the reality around its mortality risk can be surprisingly different from what most believe. In this episode, Dr. Stephen Petteruti takes a bold stance against the one-size-fits-all approach to prostate cancer treatment. Referencing pivotal studies like the Pivot and ProtecT trials, he shows that conventional treatments such as prostate removal, radiation, and biopsies often fail to improve longevity and in some cases, may cause more harm than good. The real threats to life? Heart disease, infections, and even treatment-induced complications.Dr. Stephen invites listeners to question the status quo and broaden their perspective. He offers strategic alternatives, including lifestyle changes and a focus on overall health, rather than just the prostate.Tune into the full episode of The Surprising Truth About Prostate Cancer and Mortality.Enjoy the podcast?

In this episode, Kate speaks with surgeon, writer, and public health leader Dr. Atul Gawande about the deeply human questions that surface when medicine meets its limits. What does it mean to be a good doctor when a cure isn’t possible? What do people really mean when they say they want “quality of life”? Together, they talk about caregiving, end-of-life decisions, and how the most honest conversations in healthcare begin—not with answers—but with better questions. For anyone living with chronic illness, caring for someone they love, or wondering what it means to live a good life with limits, this conversation won’t offer easy fixes. But it might offer something just as rare: clarity, compassion, and the courage to ask what really matters. Watch the full episode on YouTube: Kate C.

Send us a textIn this episode of Causes or Cures, Dr. Eeks chats with Dr. Irene Papanicolas, Professor of Health Services, Policy and Practice at Brown University, about her recent New England Journal of Medicine paper examining the links between wealth and mortality across the United States and Europe.There's a lot of focus on longevity today, from biohackers chasing longer lives to new medical innovations. But how much does the money in your bank account matter when it comes to lifespan? And why do those relationships between wealth and health look different across countries?The study analyzed data from over 73,000 adults, exploring how wealth impacts lifespan within and across countries, including comparisons between the wealthiest and poorest quartiles, the concept of a “survivor effect,” and why even wealthy Americans may be dying earlier than poorer Europeans.We discuss:How “wealth” was defined in the study.The differences in life expectancy between the U.S. and Europe.What factors might explain why U.S. outcomes lag (diet, food environment, culture, lack of universal healthcare).Which European countries stood out for protecting longevity.Policy implications, and what interventions could have the biggest impact if implemented tomorrow. Read the full paper here: NEJM: Wealth, Mortality, and the U.S.–Europe GapIf you're curious about the intersections of wealth, health, and longevity, and want to understand what money can (and can't) buy when it comes to living longer, this episode is for you. Dr. Irene Papanicolas is a Professor of Health Services Policy and Practice at Brown University. A health economist and researcher, her work focuses on assessing how health systems perform and using international comparisons to inform policy. She leads the International Collaborative on Costs, Outcomes and Needs in Care (ICCONIC), a 16-country partnership studying care patterns and outcomes for high-need, high-cost patients.

Tolkien's attitude toward mechanization sometimes leads people to think of him as a Luddite, but that's not really accurate. Nevertheless, he did have some negative opinions about “the Machine,” which he equated with “Magic,” and this final video in this series explores some of the ways he might have been onto something.For my previous two videos in this series:Fall: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJCXQqCE5no&pp=0gcJCbIJAYcqIYzvMortality: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJGfWI-aGWEFor GirlNextGondor's excellent video on Tolkien and AI, go here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1FvJdNKn6YOther Links: Playeur (formerly Utreon):https://playeur.com/c/TolkienLorePodcast/Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-355195Odysee: https://odysee.com/@TolkienLore:fTwitter: https://twitter.com/jrrtlorePatreon: https://www.patreon.com/tolkiengeekXero Shoes (affiliate link): https://xeroshoes.com/go/TolkienGeekDiscord server invite link: https://discord.gg/EVKynAj2m9 (Iflink is expired contact me at tolkienloremaster@gmail.comand I'll send a fresh invite link).

[REBROADCAST FROM April 16, 2025] Death comes for everyone. Registered Nurse and End of Life specialist Suzanne O'Brien believes we can make that time better. Her book, The Good Death, offers guidance for how caregivers can help their loved ones. It also offers practical advice on how to have a 'good death' so that everyone can be involved.

In this episode, Guy Lawrence interviews Greg Doyle, an expert in astral travel and energy healing. Greg shares his insights on the nature of astral experiences, comparing them to our 3D reality and emphasizing the importance of recognizing our perfect essence. The conversation covers how the mainstream mirrors a conditioned reality and discusses Greg's journey from a classical musician to an astral traveler and energy healer. They delve into common reactions to his work, the intricacies of astral workshops, and the impact of these experiences on personal growth and understanding of death. Greg also touches on the humorous and guiding aspects of astral experiences, his thoughts on the karmic machinery of human life, and the potential for anyone to access astral travel through meditation and relaxation techniques. Finally, they discuss Greg's plans for the future and his advice on living an authentic life. This episode is a thought-provoking exploration of spirituality, consciousness, and the human experience. About Greg: Greg Doyle Greg Doyle is an Astral traveler, energy healer, author, and speaker. His interest and expertise in the mind/body/spirit connection, particularly in the areas of energy healing, meditation and the Out-of-Body-Experience (or astral travel/projection), has seen him help many people around the world move forward through their pain and obstacles and connect more fully with their joy and potential. As a trained classical musician, Greg discovered the benefits of meditation in his early twenties to help combat the stress of stage fright, recognizing the greater aspect of self in the process. In his late thirties, he began to leave his physical body spontaneously, and so began a guided process of consciousness expansion that would not only divert his career, but would also alter his very perception of being. Greg also teaches Reiki and meditation and has recently begun helping people awaken the dormant sense of astral projection that lies within them, using the energetic tools that he has developed over the past decade. He believes that astral awareness is a particularly valuable tool for spiritual expansion, as it is by its very nature fully experiential.

About the Guest(s): Dr. Kristin Hieshetter is a dedicated specialist in functional health and a passionate podcast host of Functional Health Radio. Known for her focus on holistic health and wellness, Dr. Hieshetter is deeply invested in raising awareness about the potential dangers lurking in everyday products, especially those purported to be healthy alternatives. Her insightful discussions aim to educate listeners, encouraging them to make healthier choices and reduce toxins in their lives. Dr. Hieshetter's expertise is informed by years of practice and collaboration with other healthcare professionals. Episode Summary: Join Dr. Kristin Hieshetter in this intriguing episode of Functional Health Radio as she delves into the world of artificial sweeteners, specifically erythritol. This episode is interwoven with gratitude and the importance of making informed health decisions. Dr. Hieshetter explores erythritol's potential health risks and provides listeners with essential information to navigate the complex landscape of sweeteners. This discussion is particularly critical for those with predispositions to cardiovascular diseases. In this episode, Dr. Hieshetter discusses erythritol's implications on health, backed by recent studies such as the one from Nature and Medicine in March 2023. She explains how erythritol can enhance the risk of major cardiovascular events, highlighting a 150% increase in overall mortality risk linked to the artificial sweetener, with pronounced concerns for heart attack, stroke, and cancer. Dr. Hieshetter underscores the importance of identifying and avoiding erythritol in various products to maintain optimal health. Key Takeaways: Erythritol and Cardiovascular Risks: Recent studies indicate a strong association between erythritol intake and increased risks of heart attack and stroke, primarily due to its impact on blood clots and platelet activity. Mortality and Long-Term Health Impact: A 150% increased overall mortality risk is associated with erythritol consumption, with significant implications for cardiovascular diseases and stroke. Natural vs. Artificial Erythritol: While erythritol occurs naturally in certain fruits and foods, the concentrated form used as an artificial sweetener poses substantial health risks. Consumer Awareness is Key: Erythritol often lurks in sugar-free and keto-friendly foods; understanding this can help individuals avoid unintended health risks. Practical Tips for Healthier Choices: Check product labels and stay informed about the ingredients in seemingly "healthy" food options, particularly those targeting specific diets like keto and paleo. Notable Quotes: "I'm especially thankful for all the listeners; I hope that you guys are getting healthier each week." "Erythritol is no joke…it enhances platelet activity and thrombosis." "The risk of myocardial infarct and stroke is huge with erythritol." "You double your risk of stroke if you are using erythritol." "When erythritol occurs naturally in fruits and fermented foods, is it as deadly? No." Resources: Recent Studies: Nature and Medicine: "The Artificial Sweetener Erythritol and Cardiovascular Event Risk," March 2023. Nutrients Journal: "Serum Erythritol and Risk of Overall and Cause Specific Mortality in a Cohort of Men," September 2024. Listeners are encouraged to explore these topics further for a deeper understanding of the impact erythritol may have on health. Tune in to the full episode for a comprehensive discussion and keep listening to Functional Health Radio for more insights on living a toxin-free, healthier life.

"We only get to do this life once." In this deeply personal reflection, Cody share his own experience of learning that his mom was in the hospital for chest pain. She underwent bypass surgery and Cody flew home to find himself in the center of a story he's seen played out countless times—in a waiting room with family, anxious to see their loved one recovering in the ICU. Last week's episode with Kelly was such an inspiring reminder for Cody (and for all of us) that sometimes life sends unwelcome invitations. Sometimes we need to be reminded that all of this that we know and love is fleeting, so that we can embrace every bit of it while we can. As Cody shares in quoting from Mary Oliver, "Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?" This episode also features another message from our By The Way voicemail box, where you can leave a message for anyone who has died. If you'd like to leave your own message, call 720-600-7056 and let them know what you've left unsaid. Messages could be played on a future episode or featured on our website dttypodcast.com

"TINCTURE" by Andrea Gibson RIPImagine, when a human dies,the soul misses the body, actually grievesthe loss of its hands and allthey could hold. Misses the throat closing shyreading out loud on the first day of school.Imagine the soul misses the stubbed toe,the loose tooth, the funny bone. The soul still asks, Whydoes the funny bone do that? It's just weird.Imagine the soul misses the thirsty garden cheekswatered by grief. Misses how the body could sleepthrough a dream. What else can sleep through a dream?What else can laugh? What else can wrinklethe smile's autograph? Imagine the soul misses each fallingeyelash waiting to be a wish. Misses the wristscreaming away the blade. The soul misses the lisp,the stutter, the limp. The soul misses the holy bruiseblue from that army of blood rushing to the wound's side.When a human dies, the soul searches the universefor something blushing, something shakingin the cold, something that scars, sweepsthe universe for patience worn thin,the last nerve fighting for its life, the voice boxaching to be heard. The soul misses the waythe body would hold another body and not be two bodiesbut one pleading god doubled in grace.The soul misses how the mind told the body,You have fallen from grace. And the body said,Erase every scripture that doesn't have a pulse.There isn't a single page in the bible that can wince,that can clumsy, that can freckle, that can hunger.Imagine the soul misses hunger, emptiness,rage, the fist that was never taught to curl—curled,the teeth that were never taught to clench—clenched,the body that was never taught to make love—made lovelike a hungry ghost digging its way out of the grave.The soul misses the unforever of old age, the skinthat no longer fits. The soul misses every single daythe body was sick, the now it forced, the hereit built from the fever. Fever is how the body prays,how it burns and begs for another average day.The soul misses the legs creakingup the stairs, misses the fear that climbedup the vocal cords to curse the wheelchair.The soul misses what the body could not let go—what else could hold on that tightly to everything?What else could see hear the chain of a swingsetand fall to its knees? What else could toucha screen door and taste lemonade?What else could come back from a warand not come back? But still try to live? Still tryto lullaby? When a human dies the soul movesthrough the universe trying to describe how a body trembleswhen it's lost, softens when it's safe, how a wound would healgiven nothing but time. Do you understand? Nothing in space canimagine it. No comet, no nebula, no ray of lightcan fathom the landscape of awe, the heat of shame.The fingertips pulling the first gray hairand throwing it away. I can't imagine it,the stars say. Tell us again about goosebumps.Tell us again about pain.From Lord of the Butterflies (Button Poetry, 2018) by Andrea Gibson. Copyright

Send us a textThe real world is where everything is forgiven and where aging, sickness, and conflict dissolve because we stop tolerating them – and it's available right now through our willingness to see through illusions.• When we perceive sickness or problems in the world, we're actually looking at reflections of sickness in our own minds• Nothing is inherently poisonous or helpful – these are projections we make that either collapse time or extend it• Fear is the fundamental misperception keeping the world going, originating from the shock of becoming self-aware• Forgiveness is about undoing the mortal images we made and returning to the distinct abstraction God created• Every difficult situation is an opportunity to recognize it's just an echo of the original sense of abandonment• All relationships are classrooms, not sources of connection – they're meant to reveal patterns for forgiveness• Our function in dreaming is to use everything as means to collapse time, not for personal gain• Pain isn't avoided on the spiritual path – it becomes useful when given to the Holy Spirit's purpose• We're sustained by the love of God alone, not by any structure, person, or circumstance in the worldFor more content, visit hopejohnson.org where you can sign up for my free Substack or get a paid subscription for bonus audio content.

Joe Flacco is now the Browns' starter, who have 5 QBs. The Giants have 4 QBs, and Russell Wilson's job is secure. We discussed our interview with Wilson at Giants camp, and Gio's belief he was flattering Boomer. Dexter Lawrence requested only waist-up photos. We also talked about household robots. A caller said our podcast is labeled 'explicit.' Jerry's update covered the Mets' loss to the Guardians, despite Pete Alonso's HR and 4 RBIs, and Brett Bady's late error. Kyle Schwarber hit his 40th HR. The Yankees lost to Texas with homers from Pederson and Josh Young. Max Fried felt he didn't help his team enough. Cam Ward enjoys chilling at home. Mike McDaniel joked, "we're another day closer to death." Finally, a caller suggested Mike Francesa replace Aaron Boone, leading Gio to imagine Francesa making a pitching change.

Andrea Gibson, a beloved poet and artist, recently passed away. We are honored to share this special encore episode of their conversation with Tami Simon that originally aired in 2023. Great poets expand our view—of ourselves, of each other, and of the entire universe. Andrea Gibson was named Colorado's 2023–25 Poet Laureate for their celebrated verses on love, LGBTQ issues, spirituality, mental health, social justice, and more. Tami Simon speaks with Andrea about their approach to work and how their journey through cancer radically changed that approach. This poignant conversation featuring Andrea's reading of their poem, “Acceptance Speech After Setting the World Record in Goosebumps” and exploring spiritual surrender, finding joy in every instant, facing challenges, moving through grief, the life force of the universe within us, self-love and loving the whole world, trying softer (not harder), the power of relaxation, identifying the keys that open your heart, staying with our fear, activism and loosening our attachment to desired outcomes, being yourself fully, the gift of mortality, giving the present moment the cold shoulder, why authenticity is the most important thing when it comes to writing, the pull of creativity, and more.

Mortality rates, mental health conditions, obesity and chronic disease rates are all up significantly in American children. Why are kids in the U.S. so unhealthy?

Hospitals. Care homes. Recovery wards. They're built on a promise: that behind every clean hallway and gentle voice lies safety, compassion, and healing. But what if that promise is a lie? In this chilling installment of Chilling Tales for Dark Nights, we step behind the sanitized curtains of institutional care to find something far more disturbing lurking beneath. Featuring a haunting original tale from Craig Groshek and brought to life by the voice of Otis Jiry, this episode explores what happens when routines turn sinister—and when the real horror begins long after the lights go out.

This rich, gorgeous conversation will fill your soul. The singular and beloved Joanna Macy died at home at the age of 96 on July 20, 2025. She has left an immense legacy of beauty and wisdom and courage to sustain us. A Buddhist teacher, ecological philosopher, and Rilke translator, she taught and embodied a wild love for the world. What follows is the second and final conversation Krista had with Joanna, together with Joanna's friend, psychologist and fellow Rilke translator Anita Barrows, in 2021. Joanna and Anita had just published a new translation of Rilke's Letters to a Young Poet. At the turn of the last tumultuous century, Rilke was prescient in realizing that the world as he'd known it was passing away. Joanna's adventurous life and vision took shape in the crucibles of the history that then unfolded. Relistening to her now is to experience a way of standing before the great, unfolding dramas of our time — ecological, political, intimate. We stand before the possibilities of what Joanna called “A Great Unraveling” or “A Great Turning” towards life-generating human society. All of this and so much more comes through in the riches of this life-giving conversation. Sign yourself and others up for The Pause to be on our mailing list for all things On Being and to receive Krista's monthly Saturday morning newsletter, including a heads-up on new episodes, special offerings, recommendations, and event invitations.Joanna Macy was the root teacher of The Work That Reconnects. Her books include Active Hope and four volumes of translated works of Rainer Maria Rilke, together with Anita Barrows: Rilke's Book of Hours: Love Poems to God;  In Praise of Mortality; and A Year with Rilke. Krista's previous "On Being” episode with her is “A Wild Love for the World.” That's also the title of a lovely book of homage to Joanna that was published in 2020. Anita Barrows's most recent poetry collection is Testimony. She is the Institute Professor of Psychology at the Wright Institute in Berkeley, California, and also maintains a private practice.
