In the third episode of Season Two of Soundscapes NYC, hosts Ryan Purcell and Kristie Soares take you on an immersive journey through the hot nights and wild streets of Lower Manhattan during the Seventies. For this episode, Jesse Rifkin, a New York-based music historian and the owner and sole operator of Walk on the Wild Side Tours NYC, designed a specialized tour for Soundscapes NYC that explores key venues in the history of disco. Clubs like Paradise Garage, Nicky Siano's Gallery, and repurposed residential spaces like David Mancuso's Loft were all critical incubators of the sound and culture we call disco today. This is dense cultural geography, hardly more than one square mile, within and around a neighborhood known today as “Soho”. But in the Seventies it was sometimes known as “Hell's Hundred Acres” do to the propensity of building collapses and fires among the old hotels and loft builds that constellated the area. Soundscapes NYC welcomes back Jesse Rifkin, who appeared on Season One on the queer history of punk culture (S1.E4. Sounds of the City Collapsing). Rifkin is the author of This Must Be the Place: Music, Community, and Vanished Spaces in New York City (Hanover Square Press, 2023), and his work has been celebrated in the New York Times, Conde Nast Traveller, among others. His Substack (Walk on the Wild Side NYC) is a trove of incisive music criticism and revealing interviews with dynamic artists from the Seventies to today.

(Originally posted on July 28, 2023) By popular demand, this week we're covering one of sketch comedy's most fondly remembered entries: Upright Citizens Brigade! Lasting for only three beautiful seasons on Comedy Central, UCB (both the show and the theaters) nevertheless created a wave of cherished performers and influence that can still be felt to this day. In this episode, we briefly dig into the history of the group before diving headlong into two S1 classics!
Our "Listen Up" panelists are back and ready for a Colon-oopscopy as they deep dive into Episode 16! S1. E16 - Colon-oopscopy- Mon, Feb 14, 2005Director - Lynn M. McCrackenWriters - Tony Kornheiser, Jeff Martin, Jamie RhonheimerWhen Bernie has an insurance-required colonoscopy (a miniature camera on a tube right up the rectum), Tony is loudly approving and supportive as he tags along for moral support--but Dr. Lou Swerling seizes the opportunity to schedule Tony for the next morning. Giving Mickey's hospital orderly observations and Dana's "childbirth's worse" routine, he can't even milk it for sympathy. It gets worse: Swerling finds a probably benign polyp but still schedules Tony's butt for the scalpel next day. His attempts to sneak out are foreseen and countered. While he is being prepped, Swerling recognizes Dana as a college date's friend, and Tony fears being "conveniently lost in OR" and runs, albeit only to maternity. So the surgery goes through, but the weirdest twist is in the tail.EMAIL: WTFCPODNET@GMAIL.COM or www.loyallittlespod.com https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czzbafs4vw8&list=PLKiPEmIz-2gtIo-tInY-kIa6p-B1xF77y&index=16

E15 - Inky Dinky Don't- Mon, Feb 7, 2005Director - Bob KoherrWriters - Tony Kornheiser, Jeff Martin, Dan KopelmanWhen construction workers whistle at Tony and Dana, not for her looks but as his show's fans, he decides to concentrate on better fan contacts.

Our "Listen Up" panelists are back and ready for a weekend with Bernie as they deep dive into Episode 14! S1. E14 - Weekend with Bernie- Mon, Jan 31, 2005Director - Bob KoherrWriters - Tony Kornheiser, Jeff Martin, Jamie RhonheimerWhile Dana is away for the transfer of a monkey to the zoo from Chicago, but "stuck" in a luxury hotel (with masseur) in Cleveland, Tony invites Bernie to stay at his home after a knee operation. Megan gives him the royal treatment, notably giving him her bedroom-- and violently commandeering poor Mickey's bed. Thus Bernie catches two of Megans's school-friends climbing up to her bedroom window to ask her out for mischief, and coaches Tony to show understanding, soon extended to spoiling the surprised "good kids." The next day Bernie bunks with Tony, which goes great, but when his girlfriend Kim invites herself over, Tony feels neglected. After Dana's surprise return, Megan's mischief gets dealt with the zoo-way.EMAIL: WTFCPODNET@GMAIL.COM or www.loyallittlespod.com https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-R56UwXl4g

This week on Fat Science, Dr. Emily Cooper, Andrea Taylor, and Mark Wright break down the essentials of a true metabolic workup. This episode moves beyond social media diet trends and digs into the science behind comprehensive lab panels, what they measure, and why they matter for your whole-body health. Dr. Cooper explains how to interpret common and advanced metabolic markers—like blood sugar, insulin, cholesterol, hormone levels, and more—while Andrea and Mark share personal insights into the power of understanding your metabolic baseline. If you're concerned about weight, diabetes, or just want to know your numbers, this episode gives you the knowledge to talk confidently with your healthcare provider.Key Takeaways:A whole-body metabolic approach goes beyond just weight or blood pressure—comprehensive lab work (plus family history) is essential to uncover risks or dysfunction early.Standard blood panels provide useful clues (glucose, cholesterol, liver, kidney, blood pressure), but advanced tests (A1C, lipid particles, hormone levels, inflammation markers) round out the picture.Metabolic dysfunction is driven by factors far deeper than calories in/out—dieting and under-fueling can actually weaken metabolism over time.Medication for metabolic health is not a failure; it's a science-backed intervention. Early and accurate testing allows for better, evidence-based treatment.Don't ignore “borderline” results—addressing issues early is easier and more effective than trying to reverse advanced dysfunction later.Personal Stories & Practical Advice:Andrea recounts her life-changing journey from endless dieting to real answers through complete metabolic testing and individualized treatment.Mark highlights the need for patients to advocate for themselves and ask for more than just the standard panel at annual exams.References:Diet Failure Rate• Mann, T., et al.

Many schools face a common challenge: how to cultivate staff wellbeing and build a thriving culture amid fragmented efforts and wellbeing initiatives that often fall short or don’t last. Leaders want teams that feel connected, supported and energised, because when staff wellbeing flourishes, students benefit too, and the whole school community thrives. Yet, creating this kind of cohesive, sustainable wellbeing culture is far from straightforward. In this episode, we welcome back David Kolpak, Principal at Trinity College North School and Visible Wellbeing Facilitator, with Professor Lee Waters. With over 30 years of education experience, David is a passionate advocate for whole-school wellbeing rooted in positive psychology and tailored to each school’s unique context. Drawing on his new book Thriving Together and years of national and international speaking, David shares powerful insights on building resilient teams, fostering growth mindsets, and embedding wellbeing in everyday school life. Together, we explore practical strategies and mindsets that help schools move beyond short-term fixes toward thriving communities. In this episode, we cover: How positive psychology shifts the focus from what’s wrong to what’s strong, balancing challenges with strengths and everyday moments of joy Using staff wellbeing audits and appreciative inquiry to identify strengths, gaps and next steps Why effective wellbeing approaches must be context-driven, collaborative and embedded into everyday school life Designing systems that integrate wellbeing into the school’s core operations rather than treat it as an add-on or one-off initiative Building real-life resilience in staff and students by normalising setbacks and fostering emotional authenticity and shifting from rescuing to coaching How to foster a coaching culture built on trust, where feedback is safe, purposeful and focused on growth for both staff and students Helping staff focus on what they can control by owning emotional responses and validating challenges How schools can sustain wellbeing efforts through intentional rituals, routines and systems that promote reflection, celebration and consistent practice. About David David Kolpak (MEd, BEd, BTeach) is the Principal of Trinity College North in Adelaide (EY–10), a role he has held for six years. With over 30 years of experience in education and leadership, David is a respected advocate for Positive Education and whole-school wellbeing. He has led the design and delivery of Positive Education programs spanning early years to Year 10, embedding positive psychology principles across curriculum and school culture. David is an experienced national and international speaker, having presented at conferences such as the Positive Education Schools Association, the Positive Schools Conference, and the International Positive Psychology Association World Congress. A Visible Wellbeing Facilitator with Professor Lea Waters, David recently published his book Thriving Together, offering schools a practical blueprint for fostering flourishing learning communities through wellbeing and entrepreneurial mindsets. He is passionate about empowering students and staff to co-create positive environments that sustain wellbeing and growth.

Episode 194: Acute low back pain. Future Dr. Ibrahim presents a clinical case to explain the essential points in the evaluation of back pain. Future Dr. Redden adds information about differentiating between a back strain and more serious diseases such as cancer, and Dr. Arreaza shares information about returning to work after back strain.Written by Michael Ibrahim, MSIV. Editing and comments by Jordan Redden, MSIV, and Hector Arreaza, MD.You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.Dr. Arreaza:Welcome back, everyone. Today's topic is one that every primary care provider, emergency doctor, and even specialist sees routinely: low back pain. It's so common that studies estimate up to 80% of adults will experience it at some point in their lives. But despite how frequent it is, the challenge is to identify which cases are benign and which demand urgent attention.Jordan:Exactly. Low back pain is usually self-limiting and mechanical in nature, but we always need to keep an eye out for the rare but serious causes: things like infection, malignancy, or neurological compromise. That's why a good history and physical exam are our best tools right out of the gate.Michael:And to ground this in a real example, let me introduce a patient we saw recently. John is a 45-year-old warehouse worker who came in with two weeks of lower back pain that started after lifting a 50-lb box. He describes it as a dull, aching pain that radiates from his lower back down the posterior left thigh into the calf. He says it gets worse with bending or coughing, but he feels better when lying flat. He also mentioned some numbness in his left foot, but he denies any bowel or bladder issues. His vitals are completely normal. On exam, he had lumbar paraspinal tenderness, a positive straight leg-raise at 40 degrees on the left and decreased sensation in the L5 dermatome, though reflexes were still intact.Dr. Arreaza:That's a great case. Let's take a minute and talk about the straight leg raise test. This is a bedside tool we use to assess for lumbar nerve root irritation often caused by a herniated disc. ***Here's how it works: the patient lies supine, and you slowly raise their straight leg. If pain radiates below the knee between 30° and 70°, that suggests radiculopathy, especially involving the L5 or S1 nerve roots. Pain at higher angles is more likely due to hamstring tightness or mechanical strain.Michael:Right. So, stepping back: what do we mean by "low back pain"? Broadly, it's any pain localized to the lumbar spine, but it's often classified by type or cause:Mechanical (like muscle strain or degenerative disc disease), Radicular (nerve root involvement), Referred pain (like from pelvic or abdominal organs), Inflammatory (AS), and Systemic or serious causes like infection or malignancy. Jordan:In John's case, we're thinking radicular pain, most likely from a herniated disc compressing the L5 nerve root. That's supported by the dermatomal numbness, the leg pain, and that positive straight leg test.Dr. Arreaza:Good reasoning. Now, anytime we see back pain, our brains should run a checklist for red flags. These help us pick up more serious causes that require urgent attention. Let's run through the red flags.Michael:Sure. For fracture, we think about major trauma or even minor trauma in the elderly, especially those with osteoporosis or on chronic steroids. Also, anyone over 70 years old.Jordan:Then we have infections, which could include things like discitis, vertebral osteomyelitis, or epidural abscess. Red flags include fever, IV drug use, recent surgery, or immunosuppression.Michael:Malignancy is another critical one, especially if there's a history of breast, prostate, lung, kidney, or thyroid cancer. Clues include unexplained weight loss, night pain, or constant pain not relieved by rest.Jordan:And don't forget about inflammatory back pain, like ankylosing spondylitis, which is often seen in younger patients with morning stiffness that lasts more than 30 minutes and improves with activity.Dr. Arreaza:And of course, we always rule out cauda equina syndrome: a surgical emergency. That's urinary retention or incontinence, saddle anesthesia, bilateral leg weakness, or fecal incontinence. Missing this diagnosis can be catastrophic.Michael:Thankfully, in John's case, we don't see any red flags. His presentation is classic for uncomplicated lumbar radiculopathy. But we must stay vigilant, because sometimes patients don't offer up key symptoms unless we ask directly.Jordan:And that's where associated symptoms help guide us. For example:Radicular symptoms like numbness or weakness follow dermatomal patterns. Constitutional symptoms like fever or weight loss raise red flags. Bladder/bowel changes or saddle anesthesia raise alarms for cauda equina. Pain that wakes patients up at night might point to malignancy. Dr. Arreaza:So when do we order labs or imaging?Michael:Not right away. For most patients with acute low back pain, imaging is not needed unless they have red flags. If infection is suspected, we'd get CBC, ESR, and CRP. For cancer, maybe PSA or serum protein electrophoresis. And if inflammatory back disease is suspected, HLA-B27 can be helpful.Jordan:Yes, imaging should be delayed for at least six weeks unless red flags or significant neurologic deficits are present. When we do image, MRI is our go-to especially for suspected radiculopathy or cauda equina. X-rays can help if we're thinking about fractures, but they won't show soft tissue or nerve root issues.Michael:In the example from our case, since the patient doesn't have red flags, we'd go with conservative management: start NSAIDs and recommend activity modification. As this is the acute setting, physical therapy would not be recommended.Jordan:For the acute phase, research shows no serious difference between those with PT and those without in the long term. However, physical therapy is really the cornerstone of management for chronic back pain. It's not just movement: it's education, body mechanics, and teaching patients how to move safely. And PT can actually reduce opioid use, imaging, and injections down the line for patient struggling with long term back pain.Dr. Arreaza:Yes, and PT is not one-size-fits-all. PT might include McKenzie exercises, manual therapy, postural retraining, or even neuromuscular re-education. The goal is always to build core stability, promote healthy movement patterns, and reduce fear of motion.Jordan:Let's take a minute to talk about the McKenzie Method, a physical therapy approach used to treat lumbar disc herniation by identifying a specific movement, (often spinal extension) that reduces or centralizes pain. A common exercise is the prone press-up, (cobra pose for yoga fans) where the patient lies face down and pushes the upper body upward while keeping the hips on the floor to relieve pressure on the disc. These exercises should be done carefully, ideally under professional guidance, and discontinued if symptoms worsen.Michael:For our case patient, our working diagnosis is mechanical low back pain with L5 radiculopathy. No imaging needed now, no red flags. We'll treat conservatively and educate him about proper lifting, staying active, and recovery expectations.Jordan:We also emphasized to him that bed rest isn't helpful. In fact, bed rest can make things worse. Keeping active while avoiding heavy lifting for now is key.Dr. Arreaza:Return-to-work recommendations should be individualized. For example, an office worker, positioning while working, or work hours may be able to return to work promptly. However, those with physically demanding jobs may need light duty or be off work.Ice: no evidence of benefit. Heat: may reduce pain and disability in pain of less than 3 months, although the benefit was small and short.And we should always teach safe lifting techniques: bend at the knees, keep the load close, avoid twisting. It's basic knowledge, but it is very effective in preventing recurrence.Jordan:Now, if a patient fails to improve after 6 weeks of conservative therapy, or if they develop new neurologic deficits, that's when we think about referral to spine specialists or surgical consultation.Michael:And as previously mentioned: in cases where back pain becomes chronic (lasting more than 12 weeks) a multidisciplinary approach works best. That can include:Physical therapy, Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) And sometimes pain management interventions. Jordan:We can't forget the psychological toll either. Chronic back pain is associated with depression, anxiety, and opioid dependence. Increased risk factors include obesity, smoking, sedentary lifestyle, and previous back injuries.Dr. Arreaza:Well said. So, let's summarize. Michael?Michael:Sure! Low back pain is common, and most cases are benign. But we have to know the red flags that point to serious pathology. A focused history and physical exam are more powerful than many people realize. And the first step in treatment is almost always conservative, with a strong emphasis on maintaining physical activity.Jordan:And don't underestimate the value of patient education. Helping patients understand their pain, set realistic expectations, and stay active is often just as important as the medications or therapies we offer.Even without trying, every night you go to bed a little wiser.

Our Listen Up panelists are back and ready for double digits as the deep dive into Episode 11! S1. E12 - Enemy at the Gates - Mon, Jan 3, 2004Director - Rob SchillerWriters - Tony Kornheiser, Jeff Martin, Dan KopelmanWhen the Kleinmans enjoy a rare family restaurant night, Dana makes Tony ask a giant neighbor to put out his stinking cigarette, but the brutal threat of violence gets his lifelong standard response: leaving, claiming he won't lower himself to the bigger (anyone!) challenger's level. When Bernie finds how deep it hurts Tony to have run away "yellow" as always, he offers to teach him all about fighting, or rather not having to thanks to a deterring aura of confidence, which works great in role-play with ever-gentle Mikey, who shyly sends himself to his room after a single glance from castle-built Bernie. The men go test it at the restaurant, but the burly brute doesn't show up; Tony still gets a black eye from an old crone pushing the door, but the homegirls go ape about his "primitive misbehavior." When Dana books to celebrate at the same restaurant, the truth is finally faced, and handled.EMAIL: WTFCPODNET@GMAIL.COM or www.loyallittlespod.com https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z82nQwQL97Y&list=PLKiPEmIz-2gtIo-tInY-kIa6p-B1xF77y&index=12

The Forbidden Worlds Film Festival reviews conclude with 1962's Japanese Moby Dick adaptation; The Whale God Mike & Spider-Dan delve into the 1962 kaiju/Moby Dick movie The Whale God, which Mike was hugely looking forward to watching but it has some controversial topics within – although it's not gratuitous, note the sexual assault trigger warning. Neither Mike or Dan had seen or heard of this movie before, due to its non-existent UK release, so they were excited to watch it on an IMAX screen at Forbidden Worlds – they review the movie in-depth, talking about the plot, dialogue and kaiju for the first 30 minutes, then give the trigger warning and discuss the sexual assault scenes and the plot implications & character reactions that follow.

Our Listen Up panelists are back and ready for double digits as the deep dive into Episode 11! S1. E11 - Enemy at the Gates - Mon, Dec 13, 2004Director - Terry HughesWriters - Tony Kornheiser, Jeff Martin, Daphne PollonAll Tony's over-enthusiastic hopes were on sweet son Mickey's amateur finale golf match, but his slick opponent Jake O'Shannon is just unbeatable that day. Megan protests she had to come, but suddenly take interest in golf on seeing hunky Jake. Tony can't stomach the loss, and pushes ever-obliging Mikey to dare Jake to a friendly rematch on his Philadelphia home turf links. Mikey wins the match and Megan wins a date to a party with Jake, but Tony forbids her to go, so she sneaks out right under her parents' noses after physically threatening gentle big brother Mikey into silence. But his innate honesty makes him crack and spill the truth at Dad and Bernie's first incredulous glance. Alas, Jake isn't quite Megan's dream prince.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlNPubPbWCQ&list=PLKiPEmIz-2gtIo-tInY-kIa6p-B1xF77y&index=11 EMAIL: WTFCPODNET@GMAIL.COM or www.loyallittlespod.com

Season 3 is HERE BABY and we are fully PLUCKED. Mostly because we were expecting this to be as much of a hot mess as S1 & S2 but low and behold, what's this? GROWTH IN THE WRITERS ROOM? We are cautiously optomisticc about this season now based on the high points in this premiere (and believe us, we also point out the many flaws), such as Miranda breaking out of of her weird brain transplant from the the prior episodes, Carrie's friends actually acknowledging what a bad idea this situation with Aiden is, and, best of all: ROSIE. We knew our girl could pull this off, but the extra grace and levity she brings to the character of Mary makes us both proud to be lifelong Rosie stans.

This week on Fat Science, Dr. Emily Cooper, Andrea Taylor, and Mark Wright answer listener questions from around the world about metabolic health. This mailbag episode explores widely-debated topics like “starvation mode,” weight loss plateaus, the relationship between metabolism and cognitive health, cannabis and metabolism, metabolic effects of liposuction, and the latest on GLP-1 medications.Key Takeaways:Dr. Cooper dispels myths around “starvation mode,” citing research on the long-term metabolic impact of dieting and caloric restriction.Weight loss plateaus are often misunderstood—Dr. Cooper explains the natural adaptations behind them and how to assess true progress.Metabolic health plays a major role in brain function, cognitive decline, depression, and dementia prevention.Cannabis affects metabolic pathways in complex ways, with regular use potentially causing negative metabolic effects.Liposuction can trigger metabolic rebound and rapid fat regain for some patients, especially when leptin levels are low.Updates on GLP-1 meds: Liraglutide is available in generic form, but costs fluctuate. New oral and combination therapies are on the horizon.Personal Stories & Practical Advice:Andrea and Mark reflect on their own journeys with dieting, weight plateaus, and medication.Dr. Cooper shares clinical experiences with metabolic rebound after liposuction and ways to navigate pharmacologic treatments.Correction: Lilly has a lower cash pay for Medicare and Medicaid, but Novo Nordisk is not yet.References related to diet-induced metabolic adaptation, also called biological adaptation and defense of body weight. 1.

Our Listen Up panelists are back and ready for double digits as the deep dive into Episode 10! S1. E10 - Mickey Without a Cause - Mon, Nov 29, 2004Director - Andy AckermanWriters - Tony Kornheiser, Jeff Martin, Dan O'KeefeMegan is happy with a box of dad's old clothes mailed by grandma, as "ugly old clothes" are in. Megan didn't give her soccer team's final a single thought despite dad's efforts, but by pure luck her averted head happens to be on the equally accidental path of the winning goal. Tony declares her the sports hero of the century, filling an entire episode of his TV program with Bernie to her accession to the Temple of Sports. Good son Mickey, whose devotion to golf was always boundless, ditches class the next day, neglects his clubs, and sneaks out, all firsts; Megan attributes this to Dad's "hippie period" diary--and the weed that they found in his 1970s pants. Tony finds deeply-disappointed Mickey practicing golf and gets arrested as trespasser in possession, but the kid's bone is of another, younger, meaner nature..YOU TUBE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NO8TzhyKd1oEMAIL: WTFCPODNET@GMAIL.COM or www.loyallittlespod.com

Mickey and Megan wrestle with the table-leaf, which is in a sad state after years of non- and misuse. The men couldn't resist betting on the football game by phone, but Pamela must not find out.YOU TUBE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_hzfnKULuoEMAIL: WTFCPODNET@GMAIL.COM or www.loyallittlespod.com

Today we start with a recap of last night's episode of PolyFamily - this new TLC show has been gaining a ton of attention but it's really the tea on the family before they joined the show that has everyone talking. Kelsea (Tyler's Sister) who is on S1 joined my Tiktok live and talked about misconduct allegations against Sean, why she doesn't like Taya, and if she has a relationship with her brother now? Plus, the Diddy trial is NUTS and we're only week one. I breakdown the most shocking takeaways so far and this is NSFW! Timestamps: 00:00:00 - Open, I'm going to Disneyland, any advice? 00:06:23 - PolyFamily recap and are the allegations against Sean from the show fake? 00:13:00 - Why the PolyFamily Family is thinking about NOT doing a S2 00:22:12 - Diddy trial recap, Cassie choked on pee, bathed in baby oil and more MY Go Big Podcasting Courses Are Here!

The DOJ is investigating top medical journals for biased editorial practices, alleging they suppressed studies on COVID-19 vaccine risks and alternative therapeutics for partisan reasons. NBC reports the science publications (including CHEST, New England Journal of Medicine, and Obstetrics and Gynecology) were sent letters “questioning their editorial practices.” In response, medical journal The Lancet called the letters “harassment” and claimed science in the USA was being “violently dismembered” by all of these annoying questions being asked by the peasants. “This corrupt web of suppression, fraud, and retractions demands a legal reckoning,” writes epidemiologist Nicolas Hulscher. Dr. Ram Yogendra, MD, MHP, is a board-certified anesthesiologist with a public health background. He advocates for vaccine injury research, highlighting issues like the persistence of S1 spike protein in monocytes post-COVID-19 vaccination.
