The top brass of the Democrat party in the US have all rallied behind Joe Biden with their eyes on the 2024 presidential election. But they have a problem. Repeated polls suggest support for the incumbent president is stagnant at best. Dangerously low at worst. A repeated concern among doubting voters is his age and health. If Biden wins a second term next year, and completes four years in power, he will be 86 when he steps down. Much of the electorate simply don't think he has it in him. Republican front runner Donald Trump has long dubbed the president as Sleepy Joe. It's a taunt that increasingly rattles the nerves of the Democratic Party faithful. As the president's voice noticeably weakens and his gait stiffens there is a fear he just sounds and looks too old for the job. But is his physical and mental capacity being distorted by his adversaries to undermine his achievements? His team point to major policies he's passed including his infrastructure bill, the Inflation Reduction Act, and his chips and science act. He's also recently returned from the G20 summit in India and before that he travelled by planes, trains and car into war-torn Ukraine. And Joe Biden is not alone in the very upper echelons of American politics. Donald Trump is 77 years old, the oldest senator is 90 years old and the Republican senate minority leader is 81 years old and ailing. Does America have a problem with the gerontocracy not making way for new blood and what does it mean for the coming 2024 election?

An elderly client has severe back and hip pain as she recovers from her second bout with COVID. Her doctor gave her a steroid shot, but her MT wonders if the pain is a post-viral form of myalgia. Join us in this episode of “I Have a Client Who . . .” as we look at some research about post-COVID musculoskeletal pain and the many mechanisms involved (and host Ruth Werner throws a short tantrum about a narrowly focused study that misses some important factors).

Today opens with a recap of the Merrick Garland testimony, where he played the role of being totally oblivious to the chaos and weaponization of the DOJ happening on his watch. We also hear from Miranda Devine of the NY Post and her thoughts align pretty much with mine and what I brought on yesterday's show. The House seems to have had enough of Volodymyr Zelenskyy. They vote to NOT invite him to address the Congress like he did last year. Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) also made a speech saying he would not vote for and would block any attempt to give more money to Ukraine. Remember I said the Disinformation Governance Board wasn't going away? DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas announced the formation of the Homeland Intelligence Experts Group. Three names stand out on that board – John Brennan, James Clapper and Paul Kolbe. All three of them were part of the 51 intelligence experts who signed off on the letter saying the Hunter Biden laptop plant was Russian disinformation. Thankfully, three representatives from the House have already submitted a Bill to make funding censorship boards illegal. I told you once before the purpose behind the open borders policy is to flood the country with a new Democrat underclass. I said once in, they would find ways to let them vote in presidential elections. Cue Governor Shapiro (D-PA) and his latest illegal move to implement automatic voter registration. This story butts up against a leaked story from the Biden regime where they are already working on providing a government ID card to illegals crossing our border. Lara Logan reminds us this is how they will continue to steal elections if we allow it to happen. Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) says they cannot take any more illegals in NYC. She loves them in our country, but they cannot come to NY City any longer. That's a Sanctuary City, folks! I say we flood every blue state with every illegal who crosses our border. They wanted this, they can have it. Also from the DHS, they are refusing to release any data related to captured illegals who might have ties to terrorism, cartels, or gangs. You can't make this up. DHS says they don't want to infringe on the privacy rights of people who are not even US Citizens and may have ties to terror, cartels or gangs! Tulsi Gabbard recently provided a list of Joe Biden's accomplishments. If they goal is to dismantle our nation, divide it and subjugate the people, then he is doing a phenomenal job. Now let's talk Covid-19 for a moment. Doctors are now struggling to differentiate between Covid, allergies and the common cold. They only way the can tell, now, is to test for it! Yet, the CDC still wants you to get a shot. And that's where we turn to Dr. Harvey Risch, professor emeritus of epidemiology at the Yale School of Public Health. He is seeing a rise in cancers occurring in younger and younger people and at accelerated rates. He says there is evidence of this after people receive the Covid-19 vaccine. Onto some positive or humorous items. Rep. John Fetterman (D-PA) commented on the UAW strike. It's going to take someone more educated than me to break that one down. Rumble was asked by a UK Member of Parliament to cancel Russell Brand on their platform. Rumble to them to pound sand. An Amarillo, TX Democrat constable just announced she's leaving the party and will run in 2024 as a Republican. Biden's team is in a panic over Donald Trump's move to ditch the 2nd GOP debate and instead meet with members of the UAW. And, in a bit of hilarious propaganda, Ukrainian media edited the speech Zelenskyy gave at the UN to make it look like he was addressing a packed house. However, they accidentally left in a shot where Zelenskyy himself was sitting in the audience! Take a moment to rate and review the show and then share the episode on social media.

Equity is not easy. It's tough enough to talk honestly about equity in US healthcare, and troublingly difficult to create solutions that can, and will, be implemented. But trouble—good trouble, as Representative John Lewis once put it—is precisely what interests the people on the latest episode of *The Resonance Test.* Dr. Djinge Lindsay, MD, MPH, Director of Public Health at CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield, and Arianne Graham, CareFirst's Director Of Enterprise Strategy and Innovation are here on The Resonance Test to talk about their stalwart attempts to solve for equity. Johnathon Swersey, Senior Director of Innovation at EPAM, creates all kinds of necessary trouble by putting tough questions to our two guests. Swersey begins by addressing the idea that given the less-than-optimal state of US healthcare, why are we focusing on equity? “If we don't fix the health disparities in our country, those will spread to the rest of the population and it becomes not just a public health issue, but frankly, a national security issue,” says Graham. Or conversationalists agree that there has been much talk about equity but that talk is far too insufficient. “There has been a lot of verbal acknowledgement of the fact that structural racism is pervasive and all of our systems, including healthcare, but that verbal acknowledgement hasn't necessarily been followed with action,” says Dr. Lindsay. To move things forward, we need to align our moral imperatives with proper levels of funding. Dr. Lindsay asks us to consider the history of social change: “There have been few successful social change movements that haven't been aligned with some financial incentive for those who hold power.” One such alignment must just be possible with the new Health Equity Index that's being introduced to Medicare Advantage. Healthcare players, says Dr. Lindsay, will now be required to not only “look at their data, not only stratify their data but to action on closing disparity gaps. Closing differences in health outcomes for people based on their race.” Ultimately, it's about beginning from what Graham calls “an asset- as opposed to a deficit-based approach.” She says that understanding the history, pain, and ramifications of structural racism is important but also “there is space to celebrate what makes different cultures unique and use that as a leverage point to engage folks in conversation about health. To tap into the trusted messengers, trusted leaders, and representative figures within communities that are delivering messages of self-actualization and self-efficacy in managing our health.” Let's hope we can manage to take a step in a healthier direction. Begin by listening. Host: Alison Kotin Engineer: Kyp Pilalas Executive Producer: Ken Gordon
On this episode of Raise the Line, we have the privilege of hearing from one of the nation's top healthcare leaders, Dr. Joshua Gordon, who is the director of the National Institute of Mental Health. In that role, he oversees an extensive portfolio of basic and clinical research that seeks to transform the understanding and treatment of mental illnesses, paving the way for prevention, recovery and cure. “Our main role is in trying to make sure that good science is conducted in the service of furthering public mental health,” he tells host Shiv Gaglani. One area of NIMH research that gets less attention than breakthrough medicines is how to make it easier for healthcare systems and practices to adopt best practices and proven treatments. This not only helps improve patient outcomes, but Gordon says it is one element in addressing feelings of a lack of effectiveness that contribute to provider burnout. “If we can increase individuals' efficacy by ensuring that they are trained in evidence-based approaches, and continue to make new treatments available to help those who aren't responding to the old ones, that's one way we can do that.” This is a rare opportunity to hear from a federal agency executive on some of the most pressing and interesting issues in healthcare including the shortage of providers, health equity, social determinants of health, telemedicine and the potential for psychedelics to treat mental health problems.

The Crucial Role of Psychedelic Therapy Guides - Mary Cosimano, Former Director of Guide and Facilitator Services at The Johns Hopkins Center for Psychedelic and Consciousness ResearchAll of the promising research into the potential benefits of psychedelics in mental health treatment depends on having skilled professionals who can create a therapeutic alliance with participants and guide the sessions in which the compounds are administered. We could not have a betterRaise the Line guest for understanding this role than Mary Cosimano, LMSW, former director of Guide and Facilitator Services at the Johns Hopkins Center for Psychedelics & Consciousness Research. Since the genesis of psychedelic research there two decades ago, she has conducted over 500 sessions herself as well as serving as a research coordinator. In this fascinating conversation with host Shiv Gaglani, Cosimano discusses how she prepares for and processes the often-taxing sessions, the common themes that emerge from participants, and what qualities effective guides need to have. On that point, she thinks the role needs to be open to chaplains, nurses, hospice care workers, and others with the right combination of experience and personal qualities, not just to licensed medical personnel. “What's as important is who they are, what they've done in their life and career, how much work have they done on themselves, do you feel comfortable with them?” This is a fascinating look into the heart of psychedelic-assisted therapy and the meaningful experiences participants can have when they are in the right hands.

Hormone shifts and changes are inevitable for us as women. Aren't we lucky?! In all seriousness– I know you've felt these changes in your body. Take your menstrual cycle, for example. One moment estrogen and testosterone rally together, and you feel on top of the world right before ovulation. Then, just a couple of weeks later, progesterone and estrogen plummet to the ground, and it can feel like everything in your body is working against you. And then there's how your body feels when on hormonal birth control– which we'll discuss today. Or even during the long 10+ year perimenopause transition when everything is up in the air. Perimenopause is undoubtedly the most significant hormonal transition right after the ultramarathon that is pregnancy. And I would argue that perimenopause is the critical window that shapes our future health outcomes. The truth is, how you take care of your body during the perimenopause transition can determine how you thrive for the rest of your life. So today, I invited Dr. Carrie Jones to share her insights on the new research concerning women after perimenopause, and what tools are at our disposal to set us up for success so we can extend our longevity. We'll also discuss the new FDA-cleared, over-the-counter mini pill called the Opill– which is about to hit drugstores. We want you to understand all the options, concerns, and risks around an over-the-counter pill. And lastly, we talk about how improving your metabolic health is the biggest lever you can pull if you want a healthy, thriving body and life– before, during, and after perimenopause. Although your body's changing a lot– even in menopause– there are adjustments you can easily make to reduce the symptoms you're dealing with. And that first step is assessing how well your metabolism is functioning– and then taking proactive steps to improve it. Learn more about all of this today in my empowering discussion with Dr. Jones– so you can take charge of your hormones and metabolism to live the life you deserve. Dr. Carrie Jones Dr. Carrie Jones is a Naturopathic Physician, board-certified in Naturopathic Endocrinology with a Master's in Public Health. She's an internationally recognized speaker, consultant, and educator on the topic of women's health and hormones with over 20 years in the industry. Dubbed the Queen of Hormones, Dr. Jones was one of the first to become board-certified through the American Board of Naturopathic Endocrinology. She was the first Medical Director of the DUTCH Test and the first Head of Medical Education at Rupa Health. She's the Chief Medical Officer at New Ethics Formulations and the Head of Medical Education at Metabolic Mentor University.

In this episode, we tackle an all-too-familiar topic: misinformation. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen how technology and social media can be used to both spread health information awareness and popularize misinformation. The question remains: in the age of technology, how can we be sure about the validity of the information we are receiving online, and how can we all be vigilant against the spread of misinformation? To help us, we had the wonderful Evan Thornburg join us for today's podcast. Evan is a bioethicist and health equity officer for the City of Pennsylvania's Department of Public Health. In the past, they've also worked in the Philadelphia Mayor's Office as Deputy Director of LGBT. After completing a Master's of Arts in Urban Bioethics at Temple University's Lewis Katz School of Medicine and writing their thesis on the spread of misinformation, Evan took to TikTok, utilizing the platform to share their knowledge about bioethics, comment on current health news, and challenge the online community to be discerning about how they absorb and converse about health information. You can find Evan on TikTok at EVN the (Bio) Ethicist. We loved talking with Evan, and we hope you come out of this episode with some practical tools to help you filter the information you see on social media!

Dr. Harvey Risch: Rise in Aggressive 'Turbo Cancers'–And Especially Among Younger People | ATL:NOW American Thought Leaders Views 135.1K • September-11-2023 “What clinicians have been seeing,” says Dr. Harvey Risch, “is very strange things: For example, 25-year-olds with colon cancer, who don't have family histories of the disease—that's basically impossible along the known paradigm for how colon cancer works—and other long-latency cancers that they're seeing in very young people.” Dr. Risch is Professor Emeritus of Epidemiology in the Department of Epidemiology and Public Health at the Yale School of Public Health and Yale School of Medicine. His research has focused extensively on the causes of cancer as well as prevention and early diagnosis. We discuss the rise of what are called “turbo cancers” and what may be causing them. “Some of these cancers are so aggressive that between the time that they're first seen and when they come back for treatment after a few weeks, they've grown dramatically compared to what oncologists would have expected for the way cancer normally progresses,” Dr. Risch says.

In 2019, nearly two-thirds of domestic violence homicides in the United States were committed with a gun. On average, three women are killed by a current or former partner every day in the United States. Between 1980 and 2014, more than half of women killed by intimate partners were killed with guns. Domestic violence affects children, friends, neighbors, peace officers, the abusers themselves, and society as a whole. This fall, the United States Supreme Court will hear a Second Amendment case (United States v. Rahimi) that may affect whether Congress or state legislatures may pass laws to mitigate domestic violence. To unpack what we know about the effect of firearms on intimate partner violence, Postscript brings you two nationally recognized experts on public health and firearms and an attorney who helped assembled an amicus brief for the Supreme Court. Dr. Shannon Frattoroli, PhD, MPH, is Professor at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. She is affiliated with the Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Violence Solutions. Her scholarship focuses on how to translate evidence about injury and violence prevention into policies and practices that create safe places for people to thrive. She is a leader on both research and practice efforts to implement firearm dispossession, provisions of domestic violence restraining orders, and the new extreme risk protection order laws (often called “red flag laws”). Policy creation and implementation are crucial components of her research. Dr. April M. Zeoli, PhD, MPH is Associate Professor of Health Management at the University of Michigan's School of Public Health and also the Policy Core Director at their Institute for Firearm Injury Prevention. Her research focuses on the impact of state-level firearm safety laws on interpersonal firearm violence. She studies domestic violence-related firearm restrictions, such as laws that require or allow firearm restrictions on domestic violence restraining orders. She has particular interest in outcomes (for example reductions in violence, including suicide and intimate partner homicide) and how local implementation affects these outcomes. She is dedicated to using science to create and enforce policy that reduces firearm violence. Kelly Roskam, JD, is the Director of Law and Policy at the Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Violence Solutions. She studies the constitutional implications of, advocates for, and works to improve the implementation of firearms laws. She served as the Legal Director of the Educational Fund to Stop Gun Violence and has published on gun violence restraining orders, most recently work highlighting the practical implications of the Rahimi case (e.g., she co-authored “A Texas Judge Is Using Originalism to Justify Arming Domestic Abusers” with her colleague at Johns Hopkins, Spencer Cantrell and Natalie Nanasi at SMU-Dedman).

Happy Monday! The whole MR Crew is back! Sam and Emma speak with James Tabery, professor in Philosophy at the University of Utah, to discuss his recent book Tyranny of the Gene: Personalized Medicine and Its Threat to Public Health. First, Sam runs through updates on a US deal with Iran, the House GOP's impending government shutdown, Drew Barrymore officially un-resuming her show (making Bill Maher the biggest SAG Scab), and progressive action in the US, before diving into the UAW's ongoing strike and the unconditional support coming in from the White House. James Tabery then joins, diving right into his personal experience working with and within the Personalized Medicine industry, and seeing how it can (with great expense) help patients, before stepping back to analyze the greater history of precision (personal) and genomic medicine over the last three decades, with the evolution of the Human Genome Project, and the rise of Human Genome Institute figurehead Francis Collins to the director of the National Health Institute. Briefly, he then discusses Obama's Precision Medicine Initiative. Professor Tabery then walks Sam and Emma through the complicated drive behind the personalized medicine movement, with real believers (like Collins) used as lynchpins by the Healthcare and Pharmaceutical industries that would profit from a hyper-individualized and cure-based philosophy to medicine over a preventative and environmental-based one, before looking at how this has also resulted in a politicization of environmental considerations in medicine, and why – despite existing proof of environmental contributions to countless health issues – the US healthcare system remains far behind researching and addressing these problems. Wrapping up, Professor Tobery parses through the influence of this debate when it comes to research on race-based genomes for issues that could likely result from environmental factors. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch the Auto Industry leadership attempt to undermine UAW after the union essentially kept the industry alive in the wake of the 2008 Financial Crisis, also expanding on Biden's support for the UAW and the inverse being expressed by GOP Presidential hopefuls. Rylie from West Philly and Corey on I-80 expand on the union discussion, the MR Crew discusses the unsurprising Russell Brand news (and those that came to his defense), and Teacher James from Iowa discusses the epidemic of anti-LGBTQ outing laws. Ronald Raygun gives his perspective on the positive impact on unions, plus, your calls and IMs!
