"I have wondered if heart attacks could be an issue because it is a shock to the body when you walk into a cold shower. I don't know. When you did those plunges, did you sort of slowly go in, or did you go in all at once because it's easier that way?" -Alexandra Paul "No. I go all in, all at once. For me, if I do the gradual process—where I'm just dipping a toe in, literally just dipping a toe in—the feedback that my mind will give me is: ‘Danger, danger, danger. Do not do this.' So I do it because I want to override that fear response and the danger signals that my brain is telling me. And I'm grateful. I'm like, ‘Thank you so much for those signals. You're working. Excellent. And we're going to go and do this.' So I will literally just go right in…" -Jason Wrobel In this episode, Alexandra and Jason dive into the hot and cold of wellness—literally, exploring the pros and cons of cold plunging, from its potential benefits for mental health, inflammation, and immunity to the risks you should know before taking the plunge.

*CW—mentions of eating disorders, food specifics, restriction, diet culture, etc. “And having to unlink the word ‘fat' from ‘not being beautiful.' Because if I say, ‘I'm fat,' and my friend says, ‘No you're beautiful'….I didn't say I wasn't beautiful, girl, I said I was fat!” In this episode of Called to be Bad I talk disordered eating with guest Bri Ragan. Bri shares from her experience about the ways our relationship with food can become toxic, especially since we, in the United States, live in a “diet culture” (a world that tells you that you must be thin to be beautiful/desirable/healthy etc). Not to mention the ways Christianity and the church make this problem worse. We also talk about helpful and healthy ways to discuss food and bodies with friends and loved ones.

Hey there you beautiful babies!!! We're here with another episode and this week we welcome back Elisa Salvat to discuss Part 2 of a THREE PART topic regarding racism in the dieting industry. This time Elisa discusses what she learned in school and how it is applicable in her every day practice as a dietician. She also talks about the lack of diversity in her industry and about how Black women are specifically targeted by the standards of the diet culture to not love their bodies, as well as being told by "professionals" how to live their lives based on research geared not towards People of Color. We also discuss beyond the doctor's office or hospital to the lack of access to food and food deserts and some of the solutions we can all implement, regardless of your color, gender, etc. to succeed at in the face of an industry setting us up to fail.

On Wednesday, October 30, 2019, NACDL hosted an advocacy call on drug-induced homicide laws. Speakers included Valena Elizabeth Beety, Professor of Law at Arizona State University Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law, and Deputy Director of the Academy for Justice, a new criminal justice center connecting research with policy reform; Leo Beletsky, Associate Professor of Law and Health Sciences at Northeastern University, where he is the faculty director of the Health in Justice Action Lab; and Lindsey LaSalle, Managing Director, Public Health, Law and Policy at the Drug Policy Alliance. Background: On the books in many states and federally, drug-induced homicide laws have gained in popularity as the country deals with an increase in drug overdose deaths. Drug-induced homicide laws seek to hold drug distributors criminally responsible for overdose deaths. Believed to target major drug traffickers, these laws are actually resulting in friends, family members and romantic partners of overdose victims being charged for their death. According to a 2017 report by the Drug Policy Alliance, individuals charged with or prosecuted for drug-induced homicide increased by over 300 percent in six years, to 1,178 in 2016 from 363 in 2011. Racial disparities are present with a disproportionate number of charges being brought in cases where the victim is white and the dealer is a person of color. Racial bias is also evident in the gaping disparity of the sentences being handed down to drug-induced homicide defendants of color – a median of nearly nine years, compared to five years for white defendants.

In this episode, team members from ASU’s Center for Advancing Interprofessional Practice, Education and Research (Michael Moramarco, Karen J. Saewert, and Jinnette Senecal) and special guest Barbara Maxwell (A.T. Still University - Mesa, AZ) explore the concept and characteristics of wicked problems in relation to health care systems. We discuss the multifaceted ways that interprofessional practice and education may provide a unique lens and set of strategies for approaching the wicked problem of achieving the quadruple aim.

Shakesville's Melissa McEwan joins the show to talk about fat hatred and fat shaming, and her own journey to loving and accepting her fat body -- and allowing herself to feel the breeze. For the homework section, we're talking to fat and not-fat folks alike. Melissa talks about how to shut down diet talk and body negativity, offers some essential reading from fat activists, and recommends a film comedy with big laughs that aren't at the expense of the fat woman at the center of the plot.
