    A New Kind of Hero’s Journey with Donna Glee Williams

    We all know that dreams can galvanize your creativity. Today in this replay of a popular show from almost two years ago, we speak with Donna Glee Williams, PhD, who has published three dream-inspired fantasy novels which seek to reimagine the hero’s journey. Her latest book is called The Night Field. We also play music by Lynn Morgan Rosser. Donna Glee describes her 17 year mentorship with Jeremy Taylor which began as an exploration of an ongoing dream theme of difficulty getting to water. She also speaks of dreams that are gifts for others and shares that she recently wrote a story based on another’s dream. When published it will have the dreamer as co-author. She describes using dreams to inspire creativity by starting with the question, “If you were to do something to honor this dream, what would it be?” She then speaks about how her books embody a new kind of Hero's Journey more appropriate for a post-patriarchal world than the traditional Joseph Campbell formulation, a new paradigm that gets away from individualism and invites co-heroes. After the break we take a call from John of Santa Cruz who describes research showing that people who play music access different portions of their brain than those who don’t. Our engineer and music-creator Rick adds that music is a high-bandwidth form of transmitting nonverbal information. We then take a call from Lynn Rosser of Asheville of North Carolina who has created music to go with Donna Glee’s new novel. We play part of the piece called Bridges. You can find Lynn at LynnMorganRosser.com and on Spotify and other platforms. Donna Glee suggests that listeners go to ko-fi.com/lynnmorganrosser to support her. We then talking about using fantasy to address real-world issues including addressing problems with pesticides which are portrayed, but never explicitly mentioned, in The Night Field which emerged from her work with the Eco Tipping Points Project which can be found at EcoTippingPoints.org. Donna Glee ends by reading the opening paragraphs from her new novel. BIO: When I first met Jeremy Taylor, I was already a writer but—other than my doctoral dissertation—I'd never written in any long form. During my 17 years of dreamwork with him, I wrote three novels seeded by dreams. His fingerprints are particularly bright on my latest, The Night Field. Find our guest at: DonnaGleeWilliams.com, FB #DonnaGleeWilliams, IG: @donna.glee.7 Video This show, episode number 320, was aired on July 19, 2025 and was a replay from a show originally broadcast October 7, 2023 at KSQD.org, community radio of Santa Cruz.

    Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 7-17-2025: Dr. Dawn interviews Dr. Drew Richard, a first-year resident at Dominican Santa Cruz Family Medicine Residency. Dr. Richard discusses his motivation to bridge socioeconomic health disparities and his experience creating educational cooking episodes featuring cultural dishes from medical students. He explains his philosophy that medicine should help people cultivate compassion and his belief in the fundamental capacity for human goodness. The conversation explores the evolution of medical training and communication skills. Dr. Dawn contrasts today's team-based collaborative approach with the hierarchical, authoritarian medical culture of the past. They discuss how modern medicine emphasizes interprofessional collaboration, with Dr. Richard noting improved learning environments where faculty are more forgiving of mistakes while maintaining high standards for patient safety. A caller asks about functional medicine's approach to intangible factors like intention, purpose, attitude, energy, and alternative therapies like sound healing. Dr. Dawn explains the functional medicine matrix that places mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects at its center, discussing how these factors influence disease response and treatment outcomes. She describes the body's electrical field and energy medicine principles from her acupuncture practice. Dr. Richard addresses the caller's question about sound healing, suggesting that practitioners frame these concepts in familiar terms rather than using unfamiliar terminology. He recommends starting conversations about therapeutic music by asking patients about their favorite songs rather than immediately introducing concepts like sound baths, making these healing modalities more accessible and less intimidating. The discussion shifts to music's neurological benefits, with Dr. Dawn citing research showing that singing and music-making promote brain health and neuroplasticity. Studies demonstrate that piano practice increases gray matter, improves cognitive flexibility, and enhances auditory working memory in older adults. They explore how music engagement, whether through listening or active participation, releases dopamine and provides emotional regulation benefits. Dr. Richard shares his personal musical background as a drummer and discusses the bonding effects of group music-making. Dr. Dawn describes her experiences with choral singing and four-part harmony, explaining how shared musical vibrations create feelings of communion and connection. They explore how music affects the body's vibrations and blood flow, touching on everything from opera to movie soundtracks. The conversation turns to Dr. Richard's surfing experiences as part of his residency cohort's wellness activities. He describes overcoming ocean fears and discovering unexpected joy in the sport, noting how the entire residency class has embraced surfing as both exercise and bonding experience. Dr. Dawn mentions the conductor paradox - how orchestra conductors live longer than expected despite their lifestyle habits, attributing this to the cardiovascular benefits of continuous arm movement. In a concluding segment. Dr. Dawn presents research from the University of Pittsburgh showing how exercise protects against cancer through microbiome effects.

    La OPA entre Sabadell y BBVA está siendo un rompecabezas para el sector bancario, o en palabras de Javier Santacruz, economista y analista financiero: "Pasará a la historia como la más accidentada del mercado cotizado español y del sector bancario de los últimos años". El economista apunta las causas y consecuencias de la situación de la fusión bancaria en Las Mañanas de RNE: "La decisión que tomó el gobierno de no permitir la integración hace que se eliminen prácticamente todas las ventajas que tendría la operación". Además, considera que el contexto nacional no beneficia: "España siempre ha tenido problemas con la adaptación de las normativas de las directivas europeas y es uno de los países que tiene más expedientes sancionadores abiertos", considera.Mirando hacia el futuro, Santacruz prevé que "los mayores perjudicados van a ser los accionistas de BBVA" en una operación "que no se planteó bien desde el punto de vista económico y que carece de sentido si un banco es accionista del otro pero no puede hacer la plena integración".Escuchar audio

    Lion's Mane Blood Thinning Effects, Memory Enhancement Supplements, and Alzheimer's Screening Test Concerns

    Ask Doctor Dawn

    Play Episode Listen Later Jul 11, 2025 47:15


    Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 7-10-2025: Dr. Dawn responds to an email about lion's mane mushroom blood thinning properties. Lion's mane contains hericenones that inhibit platelet aggregation but promote nerve cell growth. People on blood thinners like Eliquis or those with bleeding disorders should stop these supplements before surgery. She recommends lion's mane for cognitive preservation effects despite bleeding risks, emphasizing the need to balance benefits versus risks. An emailer asks about Fatty15 (C15:0 pentadecanoic acid) supplements marketed for longevity. Dr. Dawn finds promising research, however, most studies are in animals with limited human data. She warns against over-supplementation and recommends food-first approaches, suggesting cheaper alternatives like berberine may provide similar benefits. A visiting guest asks about continuing L-arginine after blood pressure normalized. Dr. Dawn recommends continuing L-arginine as it helps produce nitric oxide and prevents age-related arterial stiffening. She explains how blood vessel elasticity decreases with age, creating feed-forward cycles leading to permanent hypertension. The guest also asks about iodine safety - Dr. Dawn confirms 1mg daily is safe, noting Japanese populations consume up to 4mg daily without problems. Another visiting guest inquires about memory-boosting supplements (nootropics). Dr. Dawn identifies nicotine and caffeine as effective options, mentioning she uses nicotine patches for test-taking focus. She discusses lion's mane as effective for cognitive enhancement and coffee blends combining both ingredients. A caller asks about tirzepatide (Mounjaro) for weight loss at age 73, concerned about muscle loss. Dr. Dawn emphasizes the importance of branched-chain amino acids and 20-30 grams of protein before exercise for older adults to build muscle protein. She explains younger people can build muscle while fasting, but older adults need circulating protein during exercise to activate muscle-building DNA. She recommends alternating upper and lower body workouts and checking testosterone levels. Another caller asks about rapid resting pulse rate (80-100 bpm) at age 74. Dr. Dawn suggests checking blood pressure, as low blood pressure can cause compensatory heart rate increases. She explains age-related changes in blood vessel reflexes that can cause blood pooling in legs and orthostatic changes. The caller also complains about pharmaceutical advertising, prompting Dr. Dawn to criticize direct-to-consumer drug marketing for creating artificial needs through emotional manipulation. Dr. Dawn warns against P-Tau217 blood testing for Alzheimer's screening, calling it inadequate for general population screening. The test has poor predictive value below level 10, creating many false positives in low-risk populations. She criticizes associated drugs like donanemab (Kisunla) for severe side effects including brain swelling and hemorrhage. Instead, she recommends lifestyle interventions: exercise, stress control, adequate sleep, reduced alcohol and sugar intake for memory concerns. She criticizes FDA approval of a new blood test for colon cancer screening with 83% sensitivity for detecting existing cancers but poor sensitivity for precancerous polyps. Dr. Dawn criticizes this as inadequate screening since it detects cancer after "the horse has left the barn" rather than preventing it. In closing remarks with her impromptu guests, Dr. Dawn addresses a question about intermittent fasting and exercise timing. She explains that exercising while fasting provides cardiovascular benefits but won't build muscle mass in older adults. She recommends bioimpedance analysis testing to track lean body mass annually in seniors and emphasizes the importance of progressive resistance training to prevent age-related muscle loss.

    Seeing China's Belt and Road with Ed Schatz and Rachel Silvey

    EPISODE SUMMARY: What becomes visible when you shift the lens away from Beijing to how China's Belt and Road projects unfold on the ground? Seeing China's Belt and Road, edited by Edward Schatz and Rachel Silvey, answers this question by reorienting conversations on China's global infrastructure development to their “downstream” effects. Instead of analyzing the BRI through grand geopolitical narratives or a national strategic lens, the book draws on fieldwork across Asia, Africa, and Latin America to show how local actors—mayors, contractors, migrant workers, and residents—shape and contest projects in practice. Contributing authors challenge simplified portrayals of the BRI as either neocolonial domination or benevolent development, instead revealing its fragmented, improvised, and negotiated nature. Our conversation touches on themes including the visual politics of infrastructure, how power flows through projects, and the agency of local people in shaping global connectivity. We also look ahead to emerging frontiers of China's influence, including digital corridors and cleaner energy, offering a view of China's evolving global presence. GUEST BIOS: Dr. Edward Schatz is a Professor of Political Science at the University of Toronto. He is interested in identity politics, social transformations, social movements, anti-Americanism, and authoritarianism with a focus on the ex-USSR, particularly Central Asia. His publications include Slow Anti-Americanism (Stanford UP, 2021), Paradox of Power (co-edited with John Heathershaw, U. Pittsburgh Press, 2017), Political Ethnography (edited, U. Chicago Press, 2009), Modern Clan Politics (U. Washington Press, 2004), as well as articles in Comparative Politics, Slavic Review, International Political Science Review, Ethnic and Racial Studies, Nationalism and Ethnic Politics, and other academic journals. Current projects include a collaborative effort (with Rachel Silvey) to understand the downstream effects of China's Belt & Road Initiative, as well as a book about the rise of shamelessness in global politics. Dr. Rachel Silvey is Richard Charles Lee Director of the Asian Institute and Professor in the Department of Geography and Planning. She is a Faculty Affiliate in CDTS, WGSI, and the Ethnic, Immigration and Pluralism Studies Program. She received her Ph.D. in Geography from the University of Washington, Seattle, and a dual B.A. from the University of California at Santa Cruz in Environmental Studies and Southeast Asian Studies.

    EPISODE SUMMARY: What becomes visible when you shift the lens away from Beijing to how China's Belt and Road projects unfold on the ground? Seeing China's Belt and Road, edited by Edward Schatz and Rachel Silvey, answers this question by reorienting conversations on China's global infrastructure development to their “downstream” effects. Instead of analyzing the BRI through grand geopolitical narratives or a national strategic lens, the book draws on fieldwork across Asia, Africa, and Latin America to show how local actors—mayors, contractors, migrant workers, and residents—shape and contest projects in practice. Contributing authors challenge simplified portrayals of the BRI as either neocolonial domination or benevolent development, instead revealing its fragmented, improvised, and negotiated nature. Our conversation touches on themes including the visual politics of infrastructure, how power flows through projects, and the agency of local people in shaping global connectivity. We also look ahead to emerging frontiers of China's influence, including digital corridors and cleaner energy, offering a view of China's evolving global presence. GUEST BIOS: Dr. Edward Schatz is a Professor of Political Science at the University of Toronto. He is interested in identity politics, social transformations, social movements, anti-Americanism, and authoritarianism with a focus on the ex-USSR, particularly Central Asia. His publications include Slow Anti-Americanism (Stanford UP, 2021), Paradox of Power (co-edited with John Heathershaw, U. Pittsburgh Press, 2017), Political Ethnography (edited, U. Chicago Press, 2009), Modern Clan Politics (U. Washington Press, 2004), as well as articles in Comparative Politics, Slavic Review, International Political Science Review, Ethnic and Racial Studies, Nationalism and Ethnic Politics, and other academic journals. Current projects include a collaborative effort (with Rachel Silvey) to understand the downstream effects of China's Belt & Road Initiative, as well as a book about the rise of shamelessness in global politics. Dr. Rachel Silvey is Richard Charles Lee Director of the Asian Institute and Professor in the Department of Geography and Planning. She is a Faculty Affiliate in CDTS, WGSI, and the Ethnic, Immigration and Pluralism Studies Program. She received her Ph.D. in Geography from the University of Washington, Seattle, and a dual B.A. from the University of California at Santa Cruz in Environmental Studies and Southeast Asian Studies.

    In this episode, I sit down with Greg Shapleigh, who came highly recommended by multiple previous guests as someone I absolutely had to interview. Greg's journey in the cycling industry is remarkable - he started as a shipping clerk at Giro after moving to Santa Cruz to pursue bike racing, but quickly found himself pulled into marketing and product development discussions. Over three decades, he's shaped some of cycling's most iconic brands and products, from Giro's revolutionary helmets to the creation of Fizik saddles.What makes Greg unique is his disciplined, values-driven approach to brand building, heavily influenced by mentorship from "Good to Great" author Jim Collins. We dive deep into his philosophy of focusing on core values rather than chasing opportunities, his experiences at companies like Specialized and Santa Cruz, and how he identifies stagnant product categories ripe for innovation. Greg shares invaluable insights on building teams, making strategic decisions, and the delicate balance between staying true to your brand and achieving growth.00:00 Introduction to Greg Shapley01:40 Greg's Early Life and Career Beginnings08:26 Discovering Cycling and Moving to Santa Cruz10:36 Starting at Giro and Early Marketing Involvement15:59 Transition to Marketing Manager at Giro18:24 Collaboration with Jim Collins and Business Philosophy25:10 Giro's Acquisition by Bell Sports32:23 Innovations and Expanding Product Lines38:48 Market Cycles and Product Innovation39:34 Understanding Product as a Concept40:41 Brand Values and Business Success41:48 Giro's Approach to Product Development43:52 Expanding into New Categories46:27 Career Transitions and Business Philosophy50:00 The Importance of Values in Business52:36 Challenges in Brand Positioning54:00 Consulting and Brand Strategy01:12:20 Specialized: A Case Study01:17:58 Final Thoughts and Contact InformationRead the latest 'The Business of Cycling' BlogSign up for 'The Business of Cycling' Newsletter

    Vitamin D and Statin Interactions, Deprescribing Overmedication, and Cancer Cell Mitochondria Theft

    Ask Doctor Dawn

    Play Episode Listen Later Jul 4, 2025 50:00


    Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 7-03-2025: Dr. Dawn responds to an email about vitamin D and statin interactions, explaining how statins may prevent vitamin D's longevity benefits by interfering with CoQ10 production. She references a study showing vitamin D preserved telomeres and prevented aging over 3-4 years, but benefits disappeared in statin users. For borderline high LDL, she recommends testing for large versus small particles and oxidized LDL rather than treating with statins or red yeast rice. Red yeast rice may also block CoQ10 production, potentially negating vitamin D benefits. She discusses the critical problem of overmedication in elderly patients through a story of a 75-year-old taking 21 prescription drugs who improved dramatically when reduced to eight medications. Multiple specialists practicing standard care in isolation create dangerous polypharmacy without coordination. HIPAA privacy laws prevent medication sharing between providers, while electronic medical records remain siloed and incompatible. England's pilot program will provide whole genome screening for every newborn within 10 years, assessing hundreds of disease risks and enabling personalized medicine. While beneficial for identifying genetic disorders and drug metabolism variations like 2D6 mutations affecting tamoxifen effectiveness, Dr. Dawn expresses concern about government surveillance implications. Unlike voluntary phone tracking, this represents involuntary comprehensive genetic monitoring of citizens unable to provide informed consent. She describes alarming research showing cancer cells steal mitochondria from nerve cells by extending tubes and sucking out energy-producing organelles. This behavior helps cancer cells survive the hostile journey through bloodstream during metastasis. Turbocharged cancer cells with stolen mitochondria generate more energy and survive better when subjected to physical stress mimicking bloodstream travel. Dr. Dawn explores the parasitic amoeba Entamoeba histolytica, which causes intestinal disease but can become invasive, liquefying organs through tissue destruction. The parasite kills cells without eating them immediately, then consumes fragments and displays stolen cellular proteins on its surface to fool the immune system, potentially leading to CRISPR-based treatments or targeted drugs. She discusses converting plastic waste into acetaminophen using modified E. coli bacteria. Researchers chemically degrade PET plastic into precursor molecules, then use bacterial enzymes to complete synthesis into paracetamol with 92% efficiency. This transforms environmental waste into globally important medication, though she notes acetaminophen risks for regular drinkers due to toxic liver metabolites. MIT research reveals that AI writing assistance reduces brain engagement, memory, and sense of authorship. Students using ChatGPT showed lower neural connectivity in memory, attention, and executive function networks over four months. AI users retained less information and struggled to quote from their own essays. Dr. Dawn compares this to physical atrophy, emphasizing that cognitive challenge strengthens neural pathways like exercise strengthens muscles. She warns about fluoroquinolone antibiotics causing aortic aneurysm ruptures, in addition to known risks of tendon ruptures and retinal detachment. People with dilated aortas, hypertension history, or smoking should avoid these drugs entirely. This represents new information that wasn't widely known among primary care physicians, highlighting the importance of continuing medical education. Research shows celecoxib (Celebrex) cuts colon cancer recurrence rates in half for patients with circulating tumor DNA, but provides no benefit without detectable residual disease. This anti-inflammatory drug appears to impair cancer's ability to thrive in metastatic conditions. The finding supports using circulating tumor DNA testing to identify who needs targeted therapy rather than treating everyone. Dr. Dawn concludes with surprising research showing chronic inflammation during aging occurs only in industrialized societies. Studies comparing indigenous communities from Bolivian Amazon and Malaysia with populations from Italy and Singapore found inflammatory cytokines increase with age only in industrialized groups.

    Paul Schreiner began training Jiu-Jitsu in the late 1990s in Santa Cruz, California, under Claudio França and Garth Taylor. In the early 2000s, he spent significant time in Brazil, where he trained and competed extensively, becoming one of the few American athletes of that era to earn a podium finish at the World Championships held in Brazil.With over two decades of teaching experience, Paul spent 14 years at the Marcelo Garcia Academy in New York City, where he played a key role in developing one of the most successful teams in modern Jiu-Jitsu. As part of the MGJJ coaching staff, he helped guide athletes like Bernardo Faria and Dominyka Obelenyte—contributing to the academy becoming the first to produce World Champions in both the black belt weight and absolute divisions for men and women in the same year.Before his time at MGJJ, Paul taught at American Kickboxing Academy alongside Dave Camarillo, co-founded Kaijin MMA with Garth Taylor, and launched a Jiu-Jitsu program at Apple's headquarters in Cupertino.Known for his focused, thoughtful, and “non-denominational” approach to teaching, Paul continues to view Jiu-Jitsu as a lifelong, daily practice. He now lives in Los Angeles, where he recently opened Frogtown Jiu-Jitsu—a new space dedicated to sharing the art and philosophy of Jiu-Jitsu with a growing community.Learn more at FrogtownJJ.comDon't forget to like, comment, and subscribe!Sponsored by TACFIT.com “The World's Smartest Workout” Açai Jungle Cafe “Your neighborhood Paradise” AcaiJungleCafe.com

    Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 6-26-2025: Dr. Dawn opens with groundbreaking results from Vertex Pharmaceuticals' stem cell treatment for severe type 1 diabetes. The experimental therapy, Zimislecel, converts stem cells into pancreatic islet cells and infuses them into patients. In a 12-person study, 10 patients no longer need insulin after one year. The cells migrated to the liver and began producing insulin in response to glucose levels. Patients with hypoglycemic unawareness saw complete elimination of dangerous episodes after three months. However, patients must take lifelong immunosuppressive drugs to prevent rejection. The research represents 25 years of work by Harvard's Doug Melton. A caller asks about Keytruda treatment for melanoma. Dr. Dawn explains it's an immunotherapy drug targeting programmed death receptors that cancer cells hijack to evade immune response. The drug can cause serious immune overreactions but is standard for metastatic melanoma. Treatment protocols depend on cancer staging. For young patients with decades to lose, aggressive treatment is often justified despite risks. An email about morning arthritis pain leads to chronotherapy research discussion. Macrophages have energy levels that peak in the morning when inflammasome activation is quicker and more robust, explaining why arthritis pain is worst after overnight rest. Treatment timing could optimize anti-inflammatory medications by taking them at bedtime. Another email about eye irritation prompts diagnostic discussion. Dr. Dawn recommends examining for bacterial blepharitis before assuming food allergies and testing antihistamine drops. For elimination diets, common allergens include wheat, dairy, corn, soy, and peanuts. However, without other symptoms, food allergies are unlikely causes of isolated eye problems. Dr. Dawn explores advancing CAR-T cell therapy using RNA technology. Traditional therapy costs up to $500,000 per patient requiring lab reprogramming. New RNA-containing nanoparticles temporarily create antigen receptors for about one week. Mouse studies eliminated detectable tumors at highest doses. While effects are temporary, this could dramatically reduce costs and complexity. She discusses DNA forensics evolution from O.J. trial era to current technologies. New paleogenomics technology can analyze fragmented DNA from hair, previously considered unusable. Mitochondrial DNA analysis can definitively exonerate suspects. This led to Charles Fane's release after 17 years on death row when hair evidence proved innocence and identified the actual perpetrator. Dr. Dawn introduces Barrett's esophagus screening replacing invasive endoscopy. Patients swallow a capsule containing a compressed sponge that expands in the stomach and is pulled out via string, collecting esophageal cells. The test identifies abnormalities with 100-fold increased cancer risk when positive and 98% accuracy when negative, allowing targeted endoscopy only for high-risk patients. She concludes discussing body composition analysis superiority over BMI. Studies found overweight BMI showed 3.6 times higher heart disease risk, while large waist circumference showed four times higher risk. However, BMI had no significant relationship with overall mortality. Dr. Dawn advocates for bioimpedance analysis devices to measure body fat percentage and track muscle loss.
