At the end of every summer, Las Vegans add another notch to their belt — when you're here for the long haul, you learn to live with the heat. But the long stretches of extreme heat that we're experiencing is new: Reno and Las Vegas are the country's two fastest-warming cities, and the number of heat-related deaths is growing every year. Legislators from the Southwest are trying to get extreme heat classified as a natural disaster, but why is it so hard to address? Co-host Dayvid Figler talks with Ariel Choinard, coordinator of the Nevada Heat Lab at the Desert Research Institute about the solutions that do and don't work, what we can learn from other cities, and how to respond to climate change naysayers.

ADHD meds aren't just about focus - new research shows they may actually save lives.In this episode, I'm breaking down two powerful 2025 studies: one from Sweden showing that ADHD medication lowers the risks of suicide, accidents, substance misuse, and even criminal convictions… and another from the UK revealing that adults with ADHD are living 7–9 years less than their peers.We'll talk about:What the Swedish study found (in plain English!)How this connects to ADHD's life expectancy gapWhat to do if you don't take medication (because meds aren't for everyone)The positive changes happening right now in New Zealand around ADHD diagnosis & prescriptionsWhy ADHD meds can get a bad rap (and the truth about how they actually work for our brains)If you're new to ADHD medication, or still figuring out what's right for you, I'll also share my advice on how long it really takes to find the right fit and point you to past episodes where I dive deeper into my own lessons.Because ADHD support isn't just about getting things done. It's about living longer, safer, healthier lives and you deserve that.Studies mentioned in this episode:BMJ Swedish study, Aug 2025UK life expectancy study, Jan/May 2025Get the podcast cheatsheet for this (and every other) episode! www.navigatingadultadhd.com/cheatsheetFor more support visit: www.navigatingadultadhd.com

Send us a textWhen Fatigue Becomes Fatal: Voice AI and the Future of Worker SafetyFatigue isn't just an inconvenience—it's a $400 billion problem. In this episode of Things Have Changed, we sit down with Yuji Wang, founder of Vocadian, to talk about a silent workplace epidemic that affects doctors, truckers, miners, and factory workers alike: occupational fatigue.Yuji draws from his time at MIT and Harvard to share how cutting-edge voice-AI and circadian science can detect fatigue before disaster strikes. After a near-eyeball-loss accident involving a fatigued driver, Yuji dove into research, developing a non-intrusive, voice-based biometric that can flag impairment in just 30 seconds—no wearables needed.We explore:How shifting sleep-wake cycles and cognitive weariness impact high-risk professions.The creative ways Vocadian integrates voice screening into pre-shift checklists, sometimes alongside mining booths or safety training modules.Why multimodal data—including environmental factors and scheduling—is critical for accurate insights.The ecosystem around worker safety: companies, insurers, unions, and regulators all play a part in making this tech useful and accepted.From the rumble of highways to the flattened hospital corridors, you'll hear stories of close calls—and how voice might just be the early warning we desperately need.Support the showThings Have Changed

Jo Cooper never backs down. Her career to date and the epic court battle she won a few years back prove it.Now she's tackling bystander apathy and pushing for more serious action on ending domestic and family violence.She's been at the forefront of generating community support to introduce a domestic violence disclosure scheme in the state of NSW, and potentially to see it move across other states and territories.A little bit of background: At the last NSW election, then Premier Dominic Perrottet promised a “Right to Ask” scheme — giving people the power to find out if a current or former partner had a history of violence. The Coalition lost, and the promise vanished.Two years on, advocates want the now Minns Labor Government to pick it up.South Australia has already shown a disclosure scheme can work. First trialled in 2018, it was officially introduced in 2022, with 700 applications lodged in 2024 alone. Police say the scheme has saved lives.Jo joins The Women's Agenda podcast to share why NSW needs this law, how she built grassroots momentum, and why tackling bystander apathy is her life's work. We also touch on her other landmark fight — The Cooper Case — a five-year legal battle that ended blanket pet bans in NSW apartments, and kept her dog Angus in his Sydney home.Check out more on The Cooper Case: The 2020 NSW Court of Appeal decision on Pets in Strata https://www.bartier.com.au/insights/articles/pets-in-strata-the-fallout-from-the-cooper-case You can learn more about Jo Cooper and The Good Warrior at her website.

Lung cancer remains one of the deadliest cancers in the United States, in part because it’s often detected too late. On The Spark, UPMC Thoracic Surgeon Dr. Troy Moritz joined the show to shed light on who should be screened, what symptoms not to ignore, and how technology is changing the way lung cancer is detected and treated. Who Should Be Screened? Dr. Moritz emphasized the importance of lung cancer screenings for a specific group:“We’re looking for people that are age 50 to up to 80 years of age and those people that have smoked what we consider to be 20 pack years,” he explained.That includes anyone who smoked a pack a day for 20 years — or an equivalent amount — and hasn’t quit within the last 15 years. These high-risk individuals are encouraged to undergo low-dose CT scans, which Dr. Moritz described as simple and noninvasive.“It’s pretty much just get in the CAT scan machine and buzz in, buzz out,” he said. “It’s not an MRI, so you don’t have to worry about that claustrophobic feeling.”Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this episode of Grieving Out Loud, we're having an important one-on-one conversation with a key figure from President Trump's administration—someone deeply involved in shaping how our country responds to the addiction and mental health crisis.Right now, more than 48 million Americans are living with substance use disorder. Yet, the administration is proposing a $56 million cut to a federal grant that helps communities and first responders access naloxone—the life-saving medication that can reverse opioid overdoses.And that's just one piece of the puzzle. The so-called “Big, Beautiful Bill” also includes Medicaid cuts that could dramatically affect addiction prevention and treatment across the country. Add to that a major overhaul of several federal programs that support substance use treatment, and there's a lot at stake.On this episode, we sit down with Art Kleinschmidt, head of the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. And we're asking the tough questions.Listen to Art's previous episode of Grieving Out Loud here.Send us a textThe Emily's Hope Substance Use Prevention Curriculum has been carefully designed to address growing concerns surrounding substance use and overdose in our communities.

"I come from a long line of medical doctors... but I myself was driven by things that move fast in terms of technology." From a family of physicians, Susan Tousi chose a different path—one that would eventually revolutionize how we detect cancer. After decades building multi-hundred million dollar businesses at HP and Kodak, digitizing how the world captures and shares memories, she made a leap that surprised many: trading the consumer tech world for the promise of genomic medicine. "Healthcare was moving fairly slowly in terms of technology adoption," Susan recalls. But when Illumina came calling, she saw her chance to change that. As Chief Product Development Officer and later Chief Commercial Officer, she helped drive the cost of human genome sequencing from over $100,000 down to just $100—making the technology accessible in 155 countries worldwide. Now, as CEO of DELFI Diagnostics, Susan is tackling one of healthcare's deadliest challenges: lung cancer kills more people annually than breast, colorectal, and cervical cancers combined—yet 94% of those who should be screened never get tested. Her solution? A simple blood draw that can detect cancer at stage one, powered by AI and whole genome sequencing, at a cost of just a few hundred dollars. "If you can get blood drawn, you can get our test," Susan explains. "These tests should be in the few hundreds of dollars, easily covered by the healthcare system, available to patients without copay. Everyone's cancer should be caught early. It should be an annual process." In this powerful episode of Inspiring Women with Laurie McGraw, Susan also reveals: What happens when you reduce genome sequencing costs from $100,000 to $100 and why it matters for every patient Why blood-based testing will make cancer detection as routine as annual physicals—no radiation, no invasive procedures The surprising ways AI and machine learning are uncovering cancer signals in blood How to build diverse leadership teams naturally What really changes (and doesn't) when you become a biotech CEO Why the hardest CEO decisions are about people and focus, not technology From engineering at HP to revolutionizing digital photography at Kodak to detecting cancer at its earliest stages, Susan's journey proves that the fastest-moving technology innovations can transform the slowest-moving healthcare challenges—when you're willing to take the leap. "There's no greater mission than advancing the improvement of people's healthy lifespan," Susan reflects. "We need women at the table. These are long-term investments. We need to make sure that the diverse population of patients and clinicians who are going to use our tests are represented in the people who develop the tests. That diversity makes us better." A member of the National Academy of Engineering, Susan Tousi is reshaping how we think about cancer detection—making it accessible, affordable, and available anywhere you can have blood drawn. This is the future of healthcare, and it's happening now.

Congress is in the middle of a high-stakes budget debate that includes fighting over tax policy and funding for many vital public programs. But what's often missing from that budget debate is a focus on the people these decisions affect, especially kids. Professor Jean Junior explains how tax policy choices made on Capitol Hill directly affect health and well-being, and why taxes can be a powerful tool to improve health outcomes for everyone. Drawing from her experience as a pediatrician, Professor Junior challenges us to see policy choices through the eyes of a doctor by putting people's well-being first. For more on this topic: Read Junior's SSN brief, Tax Policy as a Potential Tool for Reducing Infant Mortality. Check out her study, Association of State-Level Tax Policy and Infant Mortality in the United States, 1996-2019.
