In this episode, I share exactly what my explant surgery recovery has been like so far, what I expected, what caught me off guard, and what actually helped. I recorded this 14 days post op, while I am still very much in the healing process. We talked about anesthesia recovery, sleep disruption, bloating, chest tightness, drains, compression, pain management, food and hydration needs, emotional swings, nervous system overload, and practical home prep that made a real difference. This episode is for anyone considering breast explant surgery or currently recovering and wondering if what they are experiencing is normal. Hosted by Leanne Vogel.

In this episode, Chuck Thuss welcomes former Team USA bobsledder William Person for a raw and deeply revealing conversation about life after elite sport, the hidden toll of repeated head trauma, and the unexpected therapy that helped pull him back from the brink. William spent nine seasons competing at the highest level, enduring extreme G-forces, repeated impacts, and the emotional strain that so many athletes carry in silence. When the symptoms of CTE began to take over his life, William found himself in a dark, isolated spiral — until one piece of information, and one unexpected influence, helped him turn everything around. His comeback is nothing short of remarkable, and it is now fueling a mission to help veterans, athletes, and everyday people find relief and hope. Guest Bio William Person is a former nine-year Team USA Bobsled athlete whose career left him battling the devastating effects of CTE. At his lowest point, he was unable to function, lost in confusion, depression, and cognitive decline. Everything changed when he discovered Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, which restored clarity, color, and hope back into his life. Today, William is dedicated to raising awareness about brain injury in sports and the military, and he is working to launch a nonprofit CTE Recovery Center to provide healing support for athletes and veterans at no cost. You'll hear About The extreme G-forces and crashes that contributed to William's head trauma The silent suffering many athletes experience long after retirement How his symptoms escalated into cognitive decline, depression, and hopelessness The discovery of hyperbaric oxygen therapy and why it changed everything His mission to help veterans and athletes access life-saving care Chapters 00:00 Welcome and Introduction 01:26 How Joe Namath's Story Helped Spark William's Recovery 03:19 From Track Athlete to Team USA Bobsledder 05:29 What Life Is Really Like Inside a Bobsled 06:54 Understanding G-Forces and the Hidden Toll on the Brain 09:05 Crashes, Head Trauma, and Silent Suffering 11:01 The Symptoms: Fog, Memory Loss, Depression, and Confusion 13:53 Hitting Rock Bottom and Praying for Relief 16:50 The Article That Changed Everything 20:15 Discovering Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy and Immediate Results 23:23 Managing Symptoms, Daily Challenges, and Misunderstood Concussions 26:25 William's Mission to Create the American Post-Concussion Wellness Center 29:07 Why Veterans and Athletes Desperately Need Better Support 32:21 The Larger Crisis: CTE, Suicides, and Unseen Struggles 35:48 William's Message to Anyone Feeling Hopeless 37:50 Chuck's Closing Reflections Chuck's Challenge This week, check in on someone who may be struggling behind the scenes.

Let me guess. It's a new year, and you're supposed to feel motivated. Excited. Ready for a fresh start. But instead? You just feel tired. Tired of being tired. Tired of trying. Tired of feeling like you're starting over AGAIN with your eating disorder recovery. Everywhere you look, you're being bombarded with "new year, new you" messages. Detoxes. Transformation challenges. Fresh starts. Clean slates. And if you're in ED recovery, you know exactly what that pressure feels like—and how triggering it is. Here's what I need you to hear: A calendar flipping to January 1st doesn't magically fix anything. But there IS one emotion that will actually get you out of ED hell. And it's probably not what you think. In this raw, no-BS episode, I'm getting provocative, confrontational, and real with you about the power of frustration—and why being absolutely sick and tired of yourself and your eating disorder might be the best thing that could happen to your recovery. This isn't your typical "be kind to yourself" recovery talk. This is me calling you out with love, getting you MAD, and helping you channel that anger into the fuel you need to actually change. In this episode, you'll discover: Why "new year, new you" is toxic garbage (especially in ED recovery) The ONE emotion that will actually get you out of ED hell (hint: it's frustration) Why feeling "sick of yourself" isn't weakness—it's readiness My personal story of how I had to get ANGRY with myself to finally stop playing games with recovery What your eating disorder has actually taken from you over the years (and how many more years you're going to let it take) 3 powerful action steps to channel your frustration: plate-throwing, journaling prompts, and the anger letter The raw, unfiltered reality of what recovery actually takes (no sugarcoating) Why you need to stop negotiating with your ED and start getting pissed off enough to do something different If you're done playing victim to your own story. If you're sick of half-assing your recovery. If you're ready to get FRUSTRATED enough to finally take action—this episode is for you. Let's go.

Summary In this episode, Cultivating Curiosity host Jeff Ikler reflects on his love of year-end "Best Books" lists and why reading sits at the heart of his podcast and personal life. He welcomes lists from institutions like The New York Times and the New York Public Library, seeing them as both a defense against book banning and a source of discovery, connection, and generosity. For Ikler, books spark curiosity, deepen empathy, and create bonds—whether through gifting or thoughtful conversation with authors. He also underscores podcast hosts' responsibility to read their guests' work in full, arguing that preparation honors both listeners and writers. Ultimately, Ikler finds himself drawn to books that slow him down through careful observation and reflection, or expand his understanding through deeply researched history, reinforcing reading as both nourishment and refuge. Three Major Takeaways Reading lists are acts of resistance, curiosity, and connection—not just recommendations. Thoughtful reading is essential to meaningful conversation, especially in podcasting. The most rewarding books either sharpen our attention to the present or deepen our understanding of the past. Jeff's favorite books in 2025 Crossings – How Road Ecology is Shaping the Future of Our Planet by Ben Goldfarb. Quoting from the book jacket, "Creatures from antelope to salmon are losing their ability to migrate in search of food and mates; invasive plants hitch rides in tire treads, road salt contaminates lakes and rivers; and the very, very noise of traffic chases songbirds from vast swaths of habitat." In this beautifully crafted book, Goldfarb makes the case that overpasses and underpasses are essential for reducing the deaths of animals and humans who inevitably come into brutal contact with one another. One of the chief takeaways in our era of divisiveness is that road ecologists and other scientists, insurance companies, and government officials are working collaboratively to solve problems. They have different goals for doing so, but they're working effectively at the intersection. You can access my two-part podcast interview on Getting Unstuck–Cultivating Curiosity with Ben in episodes 347 and 348. The Comfort of Crows – A Backyard Year by Margaret Renkl. This title came from one of last year's best books, and it did not disappoint. Quoting from the book jacket, "Margaret Renkl presents a literary devotional: fifty-two chapters that follow the creatures and plants in her backyard over the course of a year." How often do you read a chapter or passage because the writing is so moving? If you're interested in slowing down and seeing more of your immediate world, this is a great place to start. This small volume is a course in observation and reflection. Challenger – A True Story of Heroism and Disaster on the Edge of Space by Adam Higginbotham. Like many Americans who watched the Space Shuttle Challenger break apart just seventy-three seconds into its mission, I thought I knew the story, but I was so wrong. As the book jacket explains, "…the Challenger disaster was a defining moment in twentieth-century history–one that forever changed the way America thought of itself and its optimistic view of the future. Yet the full story of what happened, and why, has never been told." I was moved to head-shaking anger after reading how decisions were made and bungled. Higginbotham's explanation of a highly complicated topic is beautifully presented. The book is a primer on the dangers of overly complex and competing bureaucracies and ego. Remember Us – American Sacrifice, Dutch Freedom, and a Forever Promise Forged in World War II by Robert M. Edsel with Bret Witter. Remember Us documents twelve lives connected to the American Military Cemetery near the small village of Margraten, Netherlands. Approximately 8,300 Americans who helped liberate the Netherlands from the Nazis and the grip of fascism during World War II are buried there. One of these was a Black American soldier who, along with a company of other Black Americans, dug the graves under the harshest weather conditions. The cruel irony is that Black soldiers worked in segregated and mostly non-combat roles in a war fought to eliminate tyranny and oppression. The cemetery is remarkable because local Dutch citizens have taken it upon themselves to adopt each grave and visit it weekly. This practice reflects the citizens' ongoing gratitude, and their visits ensure that the soldiers are always remembered for their sacrifice. There is a waiting list of citizens who wish to adopt a grave. Raising Hare—a Memoir by Chloe Dalton. This title has made almost every list I've come across. From the jacket cover, "…Dalton stumbles upon a newborn hare—a leveret—that had been chased by a dog. Fearing for its life, she brings it home, only to discover how difficult it is to rear a wild hare." Dalton deftly and wisely navigates caring for the hare as a house guest versus a pet, a choice that lets the hare move between the wild of the nearby woods and the security of her home. Like Renkl, Dalton has a keen eye for observation, one that put me in her home and garden as a witness to their interactions. Origin — A Genetic History of the Americas by Jennifer Raff. When I was growing up, I watched or read with almost religious fervor anything National Geographic produced featuring Louis Leakey, a paleoanthropologist and archaeologist. I was in awe of how he dug through the layers of time to find bones and artifacts from our earliest ancestors. Leakey's work was critical in demonstrating our human origins in Africa. So, when my friend Annette Taylor, a researcher of evolutionary psychology and biology, shared an article featuring Professor Jennifer Raff, an anthropologist and geneticist trying to rewrite the history of human origins in the Americas, I knew I had to invite her on my podcast. As a history enthusiast, I found it especially rewarding to co-host, along with Annette, a discussion with Professor Raff on podcast episode 358 about how and why early peoples migrated to and within North America. Raff has a talent for simplifying complex topics and making listeners comfortable with uncertainty. Scientists have theories and are constantly testing and revising them. We don't yet know for sure how early peoples arrived here or why they migrated, but that's the beauty of science and history. There is always more to discover. If You Lived Here, I'd Know Your Name by Heather Lende. I read this book decades ago and was as captivated then as I was this year by Heather Lende's storytelling ability. Adapted from the back cover, "As both the obituary writer and social columnist for the local newspaper (in Haines, Alaska, population about 2,500), Heather Lende knows better than anyone the goings-on in this breathtakingly beautiful place. Her offbeat chronicle brings us inside her — and the town's — busy life." Why read about a small town in Alaska? Maybe because it helps us look critically at our own lives. Like Renkl and Dalton, Heather Lende has an eye for detail, but also the humanity beneath the detail. She has graciously agreed to be my guest in podcast episode 400 this coming February. The most interesting books read in 2025 by his friends and colleagues Steve Ehrlich – The Inner Work of Age: Shifting from Role to Soul by Connie Zweig. Zweig writes from a Jungian perspective that is accessible to anyone who thinks about old and new agendas, internal and external, as we transition to later life, and reflect on what we want to hold on to, and what we're prepared to let go of to live an authentic life. Cindy House – What Just Happened by Charles Finch. It's one person's experience of the terrible year that was the pandemic lockdown, with all the fear, uncertainty, and strangeness I had forgotten. I loved his cultural observations and witty take on one of the weirdest years of our lives. I am so glad this particular record exists. By Edgington – The Untethered Soul by Michael A. Singer. I first read the book in 2013, then again in '24, and now I read and refer to it every year. Singer's book is what propelled me to join his Temple of the Universe, where Mariah and I now live on the grounds. It's filled with inspiration and simple, almost homely wisdom: "The moment in front of you is not bothering you; you're bothering yourself about the moment in front of you!" Spencer Seim – To Possess the Land by Frank Waters. It follows the life of Arthur Manby, who came to the New Mexico territory in 1885 from England. He quickly tried to cash in by calling parcels of land his own. He quickly ran into resistance, often by force, and had to learn the hard way that the land of New Mexico in those days was a bit more complicated. Charlotte Wittenkamp – Shift by Ethan Kross. Kross examines Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning and the notion that we always have the freedom to choose how we respond - even to the atrocities Frankl had to put up with in a WWII concentration camp. Kross examines and supports, with scientific findings, various ways we can shift our perspectives to gain easier access to that freedom of choice. Paul McNichols – E-Boat Alert by James F. Tent. The book offers a nearly forensic yet highly readable analysis of the threat posed by the E-Boats of the German Kriegsmarine to the Allied invasion of Europe in 1944. It covers the development, use, strengths, and limitations of these fast, maneuverable craft, as well as their impact on the Normandy landings on D-Day and the weeks thereafter. The most interesting part is the chain of events that ultimately led to their neutralization. Annette Taylor – My Name is Chellis, and I'm in Recovery from Western Civilization by Chellis Glendinning. Chellis writes affectionately and respectfully about eco-psychology and nature-based peoples from whom members of Western Civilization could learn a lot. Sue Inches – The Light Eaters – How the unseen world of plant intelligence offers a new understanding of life on earth by Zoe Schlanger. A thrilling journey that leads the reader from an old paradigm of plants as separate inanimate objects, to the true nature of plants as sensing, alive beings who communicate with the world around them. An inspiring example of how human understanding of the world around us is making progress! Rich Gassen – The Art of Gathering by Priya Parker. Priya teaches us how to have better parties, events, and relationships through her writing. I used this book's information (along with her podcasts) to plan a better 10-year anniversary party for the Campus Supervisors Network community of practice I lead at UW-Madison — making it exclusive, inviting, and tailored to those who attended. Mac Bogert – Renegades by Robert Ward. After some time as a college professor, Bob decided to try journalism. He spent twenty years interviewing folks from Waylon Jennings to Larry Flynt, and, damn, he's good at it! Hunter Seim – Catch-22 by Joseph Heller. The novel is set during World War II, from 1942 to 1944. It mainly follows the life of antihero Captain Yossarian, a U.S. Air Force B-25 bombardier. The term "Catch-22" itself refers to a paradoxical situation in which contradictory rules or circumstances trap a person. In the novel, Yossarian discovers that he can be declared insane and relieved from duty if he requests it, but by requesting it, he demonstrates his sanity. Remarkably accurate in describing organizational dysfunction and bureaucratic absurdity. It was the perfect book to read in 2025. Bill Whiteside – I Regret Almost Everything by Keith McNally. I wondered whether this memoir by a New York restaurateur (who hates the word "restaurateur" and much else), who suffered two strokes and survived a suicide attempt, would live up to its social media hype. It does.
In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Jeremy Bettle, a performance director and applied sports scientist, to dig into what actually moves the needle for performance, recovery, and long-term resilience.We cover everything from high ankle sprains and injury prevention to smarter load management, and why understanding stress, recovery, and tissue capacity matters far more than chasing random training trends.Dr. Bettle shares insights from years of work across the NHL, NBA, and international sport, along with how elite performance systems can — and should — be translated to non-elite humans who want to train hard, recover better, and keep doing this for decades.Sponsors:Rogue: https://miket.me/rogueBeyond Power Voltra 1: https://www.beyond-power.com/michael13Fitness Insider Newsletter: https://miketnelson.com/Episode Chapters:05:26 Discussion Kickoff: Injury Prevention and Load Management06:10 High Ankle Sprains in Professional Sports15:07 Load Management Strategies and Challenges38:11 Eccentric Training and Injury Prevention46:23 Muscular vs. Soft Tissue Injuries in Athletes47:49 Importance of Plyometric Work in Injury Prevention51:43 Isometric Exercises and Their Benefits58:12 Recovery Strategies and Their Effectiveness01:08:02 The Role of Communication in Team Sports01:15:55 Systematizing Athlete Routines for Optimal Performance01:22:52 Conclusion and Final Thoughts Episodes You Might Enjoy:Episode 314: Unlocking Performance & Recovery: IV Therapies & Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy with Jordyn PayneYouTube: https://youtu.be/qnJHcepDx1c?si=aTlDcFS6D77jq49DEpisode 325: The Uncommon Science of Cold: Brown Fat, Resilience & Recovery with Dr. Thomas SeagerYouTube: https://youtu.be/5ycoVRnLTuY?si=m-pgtYkkMcQhPUXJConnect with Jeremy:Vitality Collective: https://vitality-collective.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/VitalityCollectivePerformanceGet In Touch with Dr Mike:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drmiketnelson/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCn1aTbQqHglfNrENPm0GTpgEmail: https://miketnelson.com/contact-us/

The 1% in Recovery Successful Gamblers & Alcoholics Stopping Addiction
Text and Be HeardGambling doesn't just take your money; it steals your attention, your calm, and your time. We explore how the “it's just entertainment” narrative is crafted by an industry that plays the long game while your brain chases short-term highs. Our guest on the Entrepreneurs on Fire podcast with John Lee Dumas, is recovery educator Hugo, and he explains what actually happens neurologically during a bet, why even a $5 wager spikes anxiety, and how the rush mirrors stimulant patterns on brain maps. We look at why gambling feels “productive” compared to other vices, and how that illusion keeps people locked in and losing money.From slot machine payout math to sportsbook design, we unpack the mechanics that ensure that the house wins. Hugo connects the dots between flashy Vegas spectacles, live betting on your phone, and subtle marketing that targets younger audiences through colors, sounds, and constant odds talk during broadcasts. With State endorsements normalizing sports betting and fantasy leagues blurring lines, it's no accident teens and families are surrounded by wagering cues. The result is a drip-feed that trains the subconscious and erodes daily focus.We turn from diagnosis to solutions with clear, practical steps. Hugo outlines how to spot early warning signs—compulsive score checking, secrecy, emotional distance—and then lays out accessible recovery moves that rebuild healthy neurochemistry. Replace the artificial spike with free dopamine from small goals, serotonin from sun, gratitude or meditation, endorphins from movement, exercise or laughter, and oxytocin from hugs, petting dogs and real connection. Add structure with therapy, peer support, and environmental safeguards, and you'll feel productivity return as a side effect of a richer life. If the story you've heard is that gambling makes games more exciting, this conversation offers a better one: your presence, your relationships, and your health are the real win.If this resonates, subscribe, share with someone who needs it, and leave a quick review to help more listeners find the show.

So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.Abstinence from alcoholAbstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.Benefits of “low-risk” drinkingFollowing these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more.

This week Ivy Slater, host of Her Success Story, chats with her guest, Peg Wright. Peg Wright's inspiring journey from the corporate world to launching a nonprofit, the evolution of CGE's trauma-informed approach to supporting homeless pregnant women and adolescents struggling with addiction, and how building a dedicated team has allowed the organization to serve over 600 people each year. In this episode, we discuss: How Peg Wright founded the Center for Great Expectations in 1998 to serve homeless pregnant women and adolescents battling cycles of homelessness, abuse, and addiction, building the organization from the ground up with mentorship and collaboration. What Peg has learned about treating trauma and substance use simultaneously, integrating expert research and evolving best practices into long-term residential and outpatient programs tailored for women's unique needs. When and why Peg expanded services to include supportive housing and holistic care addressing social determinants of health, recognizing that stable housing, infant mental health, and comprehensive support are critical for sustained recovery. Why Peg emphasizes listening and presence as key support for individuals in crisis, encouraging community members to be informed and compassionate allies to those facing hardship. How Peg encourages nonprofit newcomers to follow their passion and start where they are, underscoring that even small contributions, volunteer efforts, or advocacy can create ripple effects in addressing systemic challenges. Peg Wright has served as President and CEO of The Center for Great Expectations since 1998, when she founded The Center to assist homeless, pregnant women and adolescents in "breaking the cycle" of homelessness, abuse and addiction. The program began in a donated house in Somerville, serving twelve women per year. Under Peg's leadership, CGE now provides an uncompromised continuum of care across prevention and treatment of substance use and mental health disorders, for individuals who have experienced trauma, with relationally-based programs including Residential Treatment Centers for women and adolescents and their children; Katy's Place, an on-site child development center; the Roots to Recovery outpatient center in New Brunswick; 28 units of Permanent Supportive Housing; and START, a free one-of-a-kind in-home and telehealth program for pregnant or parenting clients and their infants. The Institute of CGE trains and consults clients and partners in our client-centered, evidence-based approaches. Peg leads a team of 115 full- and part-time employees, countless volunteers, and a dedicated Board of Trustees. Her commitment to providing the most impactful programming has supported an innovative clinical approach, resulting in programs that address underlying traumas and focus on building self-esteem, life skills and the critical relationship between mother and child. Informed by CGE's foundational Trauma C.A.R.E.© model and evidence-based approaches, The Center provides client-centered treatment for the best possible outcomes for both parent and child, including early relational health, to break the cycle of intergenerational trauma, substance use and homelessness. During her first career in sales and sales management of diagnostic imaging equipment, Peg developed the dynamic skills she uses today to partner with the public, private, and academic sectors to bring the highest level of care to the clients of The Center. She is passionate in collaborating with dedicated behavioral health clinicians, specializing in trauma-informed care and early relational health, to advance the individualized, compassionate mental health and substance use treatment CGE provides to marginalized women and men from all counties of New Jersey. On September 23, 2021, Peg received Somerset County Business Partnership's 70th Citizen of the Year Award. In 2018, Peg was recognized for her service to the community, receiving the New Jersey State Governor's Award for Public Service, by the State of New Jersey, the Jefferson Awards Foundation. She was also named Citizen of the Year by the New Jersey Psychology Association, an award given to a non-psychologist who has made significant contributions to the ideals of mental health or social welfare. That same year, Wright was named in the "Top 25 Leading Women Entrepreneurs and Intrapraneurs" by New Jersey monthly magazine, in the categories of Innovation, Community Involvement, and Advocacy for Women. In 2015, Peg was selected as an NJBIZ "Top 50 Women in Business," an affirmation of her outstanding contribution in the nonprofit sector. and was honored to be named a "New Jersey Hero," by the NJ Heroes Foundation. Governor Chris and First Lady Mary Pat Christie and leaders of the Foundation visited The Center for Great Expectations to tour the facilities, meet clients and staff, and deliver Peg's award, along with a foundation grant. In 2025, Peg received a Russ Berrie, Making a Difference Award, honoring NJ changemakers. Peg is asked to share her expertise in the field of behavioral health: She is an affiliate member of Dr. Denise Hien's multidisciplinary team of external research collaborators and addiction education instructors at Rutgers University's Center of Alcohol & Substance Use Studies (CAS), as well as a founding community advisory board member of CAS's new Wellness in Recovery (WinR) Addiction Advocacy Research Program, directed by Dr. Margaret Swarbrick and co-directed by Dr. Hien. Peg is also a founding member of the Addiction and Behavioral Health Alliance, launched in 2018, by Dr. Bob Lynn. Year-round Peg is invited to showcase the work of CGE and share her experience with friends and colleagues throughout New Jersey. Most recently, in January 2022, Peg convened with 60 participants from around the world to share the work of The Institute of CGE at the virtual learning event "Models of Community-Centered Maternal Mental Health and Substance Use Disorder Programs," organized by The Community Health Acceleration Partnership (CHAP). To mark International Women's Day, Peg was asked to keynote a special meeting of The College Woman's Club of Westfield, founded in 1917 "to further the higher education of women and serve the general interests of the community" in the awarding of scholarships.

Today's episode delivers an honest and deeply grounded conversation about recovery, trauma, and long-term healing. Eric is joined by Arlina Allen, recovery coach, author, and podcast host, who shares her story of getting sober at 25 after years of childhood sexual abuse, family dysfunction, and emotional pain that shaped her relationship with alcohol, identity, and self-worth. Arlina opens up about how early trauma and parental divorce created a deep sense of shame, powerlessness, and self-blame—patterns that later fueled addiction and destructive coping. She explains how trauma impacts the nervous system, why reactions are often “historical” rather than situational, and how unresolved pain shows up in relationships, anger, anxiety, and perfectionism. With more than three decades of sobriety, Arlina reflects on the practices that supported her healing, including self-inventory, gratitude, mindfulness, and redefining her understanding of God in a way that felt safe, compassionate, and accessible. She also breaks down common misconceptions about 12-step recovery, the difference between meetings and the program, and why long-term sobriety requires ongoing spiritual and emotional maintenance. This episode is a thoughtful exploration of what it means to heal from trauma, release shame-based beliefs, and build a life rooted in honesty, service, and personal responsibility.

Did Fentanyl Almost Kill a Cop? One Deputy's Story of Trauma, Survival, and a Mission to Help Others. Special Episode. For years, fentanyl has dominated headlines as a driving force behind America's overdose crisis. What's discussed far less often is how this drug impacts the first responders who encounter it in the line of duty. For Deputy Jeff Brown, a long-serving law enforcement officer, accidental fentanyl exposure didn't just spark a frightening moment, it caused permanent injuries, ongoing trauma, and a new mission focused on helping others. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. By any measure, Jeff Brown is a law enforcement hero. But one accidental fentanyl exposure nearly ended his life, and forever changed it. This special episode is streaming for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and most every major Podcast platform This is not just a story for the news-cycle. It's a story meant to be shared on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and across platforms like the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, Apple Podcasts and Spotify, because it speaks to the hidden cost of service, the reality of trauma, stress, PTSD, and the lasting injuries many heroes carry long after the call ends. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Accidental Fentanyl Exposure Almost Claimed His Life Jeff Brown had built a distinguished law enforcement career when one routine encounter with drug abusers turned into a life-threatening emergency. During the incident, Jeff and his backup deputies were accidentally exposed to fentanyl. The effects were immediate and terrifying. Had it not been for department-issued Narcan and the training the deputies received, Jeff believes he and others would not have survived. In a matter of minutes, deputies were forced to save each other's lives. Did Fentanyl Almost Kill a Cop? One Deputy's Story of Trauma, Survival, and a Mission to Help Others. Special Episode. Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. They lived, but not without consequence. For Jeff, the exposure caused permanent damage to his heart, altering his health and his future. What should have been just another shift became the defining moment of his life. The Aftermath: Injuries, Recovery, and a Broken System Surviving the incident was only the beginning. Jeff openly talks about: The physical recovery and lingering medical issues The emotional toll and ongoing stress Battles with Worker's Compensation The lack of understanding surrounding first responder injuries The rarely discussed crime problem in a tourist-driven resort area Like many first responders, Jeff learned that surviving the job does not guarantee support afterward. The system often struggles to recognize invisible injuries, especially when fear, misinformation, and stigma surround incidents involving fentanyl. Did Fentanyl Almost Kill a Cop? One Deputy's Story of Trauma, Survival, and a Mission to Help Others. Special Episode. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. Fentanyl Misinformation and First Responder Trauma In 2016, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) released advisories warning that simply touching or inhaling fentanyl could be fatal within minutes. Images of tiny, allegedly lethal doses circulated widely, reinforcing fear among first responders. At the time, the narrative felt plausible. Illicit fentanyl was flooding the streets, and officers had limited information. Later, medical experts, including the American College of Medical Toxicology and the American Academy of Clinical Toxicology clarified that incidental exposure leading to overdose is extremely unlikely. Other countries adjusted their guidance accordingly. Special Episode. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. But misinformation lingers, and it carries consequences. Officers who believe they've been exposed can experience panic attacks, hyperventilation, vertigo, and racing heart rates. These symptoms are real and distressing, yet often misinterpreted as fentanyl toxicity. In a culture where fear is seen as weakness, these events can go under-reported or misdiagnosed, potentially leading to delayed or inappropriate medical care. We stand by this critical point: Accidental fentanyl exposure can have drastic effects when combined with preexisting health conditions, particularly involving the heart. These incidents deserve serious, compassionate, and accurate medical evaluation. Did Fentanyl Almost Kill a Cop? One Deputy's Story of Trauma, Survival, and a Mission to Help Others. Special Episode. The special episode can be found on The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and across most podcast platforms where listeners will find authentic law enforcement stories. The FDA Warning: When Fentanyl Exposure Is Truly Deadly While incidental exposure myths persist among adults, there is one area where the danger is undisputed. The FDA warns that accidental exposure to fentanyl patches continues to be deadly to children. Fentanyl patches are prescribed for opioid-tolerant patients and release fentanyl through the skin over several days. Tragically, children have died after: Putting used or unused patches in their mouths Sticking patches onto their skin Even used patches can contain enough fentanyl to be fatal. The FDA urges caregivers to: Store patches securely Dispose of them properly Keep naloxone readily available If a child is suspected of exposure, call 911 immediately. Trauma, PTSD, and the Cost of Service Jeff's story highlights a truth many don't want to face: trauma doesn't end when the sirens stop. First responders routinely carry: Cumulative stress Psychological trauma PTSD Chronic health problems These issues affect not only their careers but their families, hobbies, and identities. For many even the simple joys of fishing and hunting, once outlets for peace, were impacted by his injuries and recovery. Did Fentanyl Almost Kill a Cop?

The full podcast episode is streaming now on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. Turning Pain Into Purpose: Hometown Heroes Alliance Instead of walking away, Jeff chose to give back. He now dedicates his time to Hometown Heroes Alliance, a nonprofit organization that supports wounded, injured, and disabled first responders, those who are often left financially and emotionally vulnerable after serving their communities. Hometown Heroes Alliance focuses on: Raising awareness for injured first responders Providing financial, physical, and emotional support Hosting benefit events, including concerts Producing brand-funded television and digital media to amplify impact From hurricane-stricken areas in Florida and Texas to less-publicized tragedies across the country, the organization helps heroes who lost homes, suffered disabling injuries, or sacrificed everything while protecting others.

On the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and most major podcast platforms. As long as there are heroes answering the call, there will be a need for compassion—and action. A Story That Needs to Be Heard Jeff Brown's journey is more than a headline. It's a reminder that behind every badge is a human being who absorbs trauma so others don't have to. This story belongs on every platform, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Apple, Spotify, and Podcast networks, because awareness saves lives, corrects misinformation, and honors those who continue to serve, even after the job nearly takes everything from them. He survived fentanyl exposure. He lives with the injuries. And he refuses to stop fighting for his fellow heroes.

Dave rings in the first Friday of 2026 with multimedia superstar and Queen of Melrose, Cosmo Lambino—fresh off Soft White Underbelly fame—spilling a wild Harlem-to-Hollywood saga of mob-adjacent glamour (Godfather shoots at grandma's apartment, fur coats from car trunks), early gay defiance against Jehovah's Witnesses, freebase-fueled club chaos, near-misses with Michael Jackson pasta invites, MacArthur Park crack binges, cardboard-box homelessness, and finally sustained sobriety (8+ years strong) through rigorous daily step-writing, meditation, and Tarzana redemption. Dave raves about Avatar: The Last Airbender bonding with his kid, plugs Patreon Zooms and ad-free listening, reads spicy Spotify comments (mushroom nipples, crack exam tales), shares voicemails (stolen lunchbox heist gone wrong, Hexen research-chemical nightmare), teases upcoming content, and shouts out community heroes while vowing to care less about haters. All that and more on this first Friday Dopey of 2026! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

Patrick guides listeners through questions about returning to the Catholic Church, healing from addiction, and navigating confession after years away. He shares practical, sometimes unexpected advice—like tossing out smartphones to resist temptation—while weaving spontaneous memories of MTV and music videos into the conversation.
