This week we hear from Dr. Will Van Derveer about about the proven benefits of Psychedelic Assisted Therapy. Dr. Van Derveer shared how after working with veterans he became discouraged by the conventional treatments like talk therapy and endless medications which often fail to treat the root cause of conditions like anxiety, bi-polar, depression and PTSD. After two decades of developing innovative approaches to address the root causes of symptoms, in 2018 he co-founded the Integrative Psychiatry Institute. A leader on a mission to transform mental healthcare, VanDerveer set a goal to train 10,000 providers in psychedelic-assisted therapy. We started with a discussion about the failures of standard mental health treatment protocols. Dr. Van Derveer shared data on the effectiveness of psychedelics, and updates on current VA, FDA trials, including MDMA, and Psilocybin. And how many vets are forced to “free-lance their own care” by going to Mexico to gain access to Ibogaine therapy. Dr Van Derveer also shared the vicious mental cycle a PTSD patient endures, what a psychedelic treatment session is like, and how psychedelics are proving effective at helping veterans heal.

Daniel Mahncke and Shawn O'Malley turn their focus to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (ticker: TSM) — the quiet engine powering nearly every device we touch and the global AI boom. Pioneering the pure-play foundry model, TSMC went from a government-backed experiment in the late 1980s to controlling more than 90 % of the world's leading-edge chip production, fabricating Apple's A- and M-series processors, Nvidia's AI GPUs, and virtually every 3nm part on the planet.

Daniel and Shawn also debate the right way to price the ever-present geopolitical “wipe-out” tail risk, and ask whether today's market price offers a margin of safety on what could be the most important company in the world.

In recognition of the occasion, I wanted to interview a leading LGBTQ lawyer, ideally someone working on a matter in the news. A recent guest on my podcast, noted technology litigator Neel Chatterjee, gave me a great idea. In discussing a pro bono matter that he was proud of, representing a gay couple that wanted to work with an adoption agency that refused to work with same-sex couples, he talked about the privilege of working with “one of the best lawyers I've ever worked with in my life”: Shannon Minter, legal director of the National Center for Lesbian Rights (now the National Center for LGBTQ Rights—on Monday, NCLR announced its name change).Shannon was an excellent guest for another reason: he's working on a headline-making case. He represents the plaintiffs in Talbot v. United States, a challenge to the Trump administration's ban on transgender individuals serving in the military. And despite some reasons for concern, including the fact that the Supreme Court granted emergency relief to the Trump administration in a different (but distinguishable) case involving the ban, Shannon believes that when the courts take a closer look at the issue, they will be persuaded by his clients' case.Thanks to Shannon for his insight and candor, as well as his many years of tireless work in support of LGBTQ rights and equality.Show Notes:* Shannon Minter bio, National Center for LGBTQ Rights* Shannon Minter bio, Wikipedia* Shannon Minter interview, by Mason Funk for OUTWORDSPrefer reading to listening?

As Ward Church wraps up another program and fiscal year, Dr. Scott McKee reflects on what makes this church distinct—not the flashy or obvious, but the often-overlooked strengths that define its character. In this message, he lifts up three quietly powerful aspects of Ward's identity: a deepening heart for individuals with special needs, a long-standing and relational commitment to the city of Detroit, and a spirit of hospitality that opens our buildings—and hearts—to our neighbors. Tracing our spiritual heritage from downtown Detroit to the suburbs and across generations, Pastor Scott reminds us that the church is a family, and every member has a role in passing on faith, love, and leadership to those who come next. May we be a people who carry the torch forward with courage, humility, and generational faithfulness.

Send us a textLou Oberndorf's vision transformed healthcare education forever. As founder of Medical Education Technologies (METI), he brought simulation technology from aerospace into medical training when educators were still relying on centuries-old teaching methods. "Medicine has been practicing on us for a thousand years and we're done with it," Lou explains, capturing the revolutionary spirit that drove his pioneering work.What makes Oberndorf's story fascinating isn't just the technology he championed, but his crucial insight that curriculum development—not just hardware—would determine simulation's success. When nursing educators struggled to integrate these new tools, METI took on the ambitious project of reconstructing entire nursing curricula around simulation opportunities. This comprehensive approach dramatically accelerated adoption across healthcare education, elevating nursing to become a full partner alongside medical schools in simulation-based training.The journey wasn't without surprises. Oberndorf candidly shares his shock at healthcare's initial resistance to innovation and the delicate balance required between advancing technology and allowing time for meaningful adoption. His current work with Operative Experience continues his lifelong quest for anatomical fidelity—creating simulators that truly look, feel, and respond like human patients for trauma and combat medicine training.Looking toward the future, Oberndorf believes artificial intelligence will transform every aspect of healthcare simulation while maintaining that hands-on experience remains irreplaceable. His legacy extends beyond the technology itself to the creation of an entire industry and career path for simulation educators who once risked being labeled "career killers" for their forward-thinking approach.Ready to explore how simulation can transform your healthcare education program? Connect with Innovative Sim Solutions today to discover the powerful world of simulation-based learning that Lou Oberndorf helped pioneer decades ago—technology that continues to save lives by preparing healthcare providers for their most challenging moments.Innovative SimSolutions.Your turnkey solution provider for medical simulation programs, sim centers & faculty design.
