What happens after you flush? Most of us don't think about it—but maybe we should. In this eye-opening episode, we dive into one of the ocean's biggest but least discussed threats: wastewater pollution.Join us as we talk with Jos Hill, Program Director for The Nature Conservancy's Wastewater Pollution Program and creator of the groundbreaking podcast "waste(d)water." Jos reveals the shocking scale of this crisis: 80% of wastewater worldwide is inadequately treated, 58% of coral reefs are exposed to wastewater pollution, and wastewater accounts for a staggering 40% of coastal nutrient pollution—nearly as much as agriculture.Discover how even highly treated wastewater can devastate marine ecosystems, why coral disease outbreaks in the Florida Keys have been traced back to human gut pathogens, and how nutrient-rich wastewater is making coral reefs more vulnerable to marine heat waves and climate change.But this isn't just doom and gloom—Jos shares inspiring recovery stories from Kaneohe Bay in Hawaii and Tampa Bay in Florida, proving that when pollution is addressed, ecosystems can bounce back. Learn about innovative nature-based solutions, including treatment gardens that clean water while growing food for coastal communities.From the intersection of wastewater pollution and social justice to practical steps you can take in your own community, this conversation breaks the taboo around a topic that affects every person on the planet. As Jos reminds us: everyone goes to the toilet, so this issue is relevant to everyone.It's time to start talking about the dirty secret of ocean pollution—because we can't solve problems we won't discuss.Featured Guest: Jos Hill, Program Director, Wastewater Pollution Program, The Nature ConservancyLearn more: Check out the waste(d)water podcast and follow @wastedwaterpod wherever you listen to podcasts.

EPISODE 152 – Why RFK Jr. is wrong to claim that Tylenol causes autism. According to the Wall Street Journal, RFK Jr. and the HHS are planning to release a report claiming acetaminophen (Tylenol/paracetamol) is inked to autism spectrum disorder. The evidence says he's wrong. Not just because the better quality studies show no link, not just because autism is probably mostly genetic with some minor environmental factors impacting its prevalence, but also because the alternatives to Tylenol for pain/fever control are much worse.   Become a supporter of our show today either on Patreon or through PayPal!

Advocacy for scientists is a skill that can transform how research impacts the real world. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, host Andrew Lewin reflects on an article by Melissa Varga from the Union of Concerned Scientists that encourages scientists to step into advocacy roles. Andrew shares why many researchers hesitate to speak out, the cultural challenges within academia, and how advocacy can be integrated into a science career without sacrificing credibility. Ocean conservation also depends on people outside the scientific community. Andrew emphasizes that anyone, scientist or not, can play a role in advocating for the ocean. From joining local campaigns to supporting policy initiatives, small steps build a movement that strengthens the voice for conservation. This episode highlights how advocacy can feel intimidating at first but ultimately becomes a natural extension of caring for the ocean.   Join the Undertow: https://www.speakupforblue.com/jointheundertow Connect with Speak Up For Blue Website: https://bit.ly/3fOF3Wf Instagram: https://bit.ly/3rIaJSG TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@speakupforblue Twitter: https://bit.ly/3rHZxpc YouTube: www.speakupforblue.com/youtube    

Andrew Humberman BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Andrew Huberman has found himself not just at the center of science headlines this week but again as a lightning rod for both adulation and scrutiny. After weeks of radio silence following Kerry Howleys intense New York Magazine exposé on his personal and professional life, reports from OIV on September 5 signal he has finally broken his silence, although he has thus far sidestepped any direct public statement in his own media channels. The exposé in question sparked a flurry of speculation online about topics ranging from his Stanford affiliations to allegations about his relationships and disclosure practices, but as of now, most reputable sources confirm he has not issued a formal response beyond continuing his regular work.Turning to his public output and business activity, Huberman has barely missed a beat. On September 8, he hosted Stanford genomics pioneer Dr Michael Snyder for a new Huberman Lab podcast episode, steering the conversation to cutting-edge ways to personalize metabolic health and longevity interventions. Just four days prior, he released an Essentials segment with Dr Alia Crum, delving into the science of mindsets and how belief systems fundamentally shape health outcomes. The podcast itself remains wildly successful, frequently topping health charts globally, and his email-based Neural Network Newsletter now claims over one million subscribers according to the Huberman Lab. Recent issues have continued to offer practical protocols for better sleep and mental performance, with user reactions overwhelmingly positive.In terms of social media activity, the world has not seen a return to the frequent Instagram stories or Twitter threads that made Huberman a staple in the wellness meme-verse—likely a deliberate choice as the media storm swirls. Andrew Huberman has nonetheless maintained visibility through viral clips, with The Nine Club podcast and others circulating a recent segment where he discussed the fastest evidence-backed way to lose fat, picking up steam on YouTube Shorts and TikTok. Two major Indian news outlets, the Times of India and Times Now News, amplified his physiological sigh technique for immediate stress reduction, framing it as not just science but essential mental health hygiene.Mens Journal picked up another resonant Huberman theme, quoting his warning that a late-night drink may actually spike stress and anxiety instead of taking the edge off—this contrarian soundbite is making the rounds on wellness influencer feeds. Despite—or perhaps because of—the ongoing public fascination with both his research and personal life, Andrew Huberman remains at the forefront of neuroscience conversation, combining academic rigor with pop-culture magnetism, and in recent days, both his silence and his voice have become newsworthy.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Elephants are the largest living land mammal and today our planet is home to three species: the African bush elephant, the African forest elephant, and the Asian elephant.But a hundred thousand years ago, in the chilly depths of the Ice Age, multiple species of elephant roamed the earth: from dog-sized dwarf elephants to towering woolly mammoths.These gentle giants' evolutionary story and its parallels with that of humankind has long fascinated Dr Tori Herridge, a senior lecturer in evolutionary biology at the University of Sheffield, where - as a seasoned science broadcaster - she's also responsible for their Masters course in Science Communication.Tori has spent much of her life studying fossil elephants and the sites where they were excavated; trying to establish facts behind relics that are far beyond the reach of Radio Carbon Dating. To date she's discovered dwarf mammoths on Mediterranean islands, retraced the groundbreaking Greek expedition of a female palaeontologist in the early 1900s, and even held an ancient woolly mammoth's liver. (Verdict: stinky.)But as she tells Professor Jim Al-Khalili, this passion for fossil-hunting is not just about understanding the past: this information is what will help us protect present-day elephants and the world around them for future generations.Presented by Jim Al-Khalili Produced for BBC Studios by Lucy Taylor Reversion for World Service by Minnie Harrop

Andrew Humberman BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Andrew Huberman has been especially active and visible over the past week with developments spanning science advocacy, public speaking, and media attention. He recently appeared on HBO's “Overtime with Bill Maher” alongside Frank Bruni and Christopher Rufo, engaging in a lively debate on issues ranging from free speech to modern culture—a segment that generated strong buzz among both neuroscience followers and general viewers, with PBS News Weekend and CBS Evening News recapping highlights. On the business front, Huberman continues to expand his podcast's reach, with “Huberman Lab” dropping two major episodes. The first, “Science and Health Benefits of Belief in God and Religion,” featured Dr. David DeSteno and explored topics that go well beyond neuroscience: the impact of religious rituals on mental health, nuanced distinctions between community-based support and faith-based resilience, and the intersection of AI and religious experience. This episode attracted tens of thousands of viewers and contributed to ongoing discussions about how belief systems affect longevity and psychological wellbeing, as confirmed by David DeSteno's longitudinal research at Northeastern University. A fresh “Huberman Lab Essentials” episode focused on fasting and time-restricted eating, distilling decades of metabolic research from Stanford's Christopher Gardner and Salk Institute's Satchin Panda. Here, Huberman shared protocol-level advice on 8-hour feeding windows, the circadian rhythm's role in fat loss, and how even simple strategies—like post-meal walking—can accelerate glucose clearance. Social media is abuzz with references to these episodes, amplified by Huberman's trademark dissemination of evidence-based actionable routines, including his Daily Blueprint which remains a top resource for his 800,000-plus newsletter subscribers, as confirmed on his site.Notably, a viral Men's Journal article revealed Huberman's top “dog trick” for instant stress relief, pointing readers to short, rapid breathing as a potent tool for anxiety—this simple protocol was highlighted by Huberman as rooted in comparative animal behavior and neuroscience and has already been widely circulated among health and wellness creators. Meanwhile, the anticipation grows for his public keynote at the Summit of Greatness in Los Angeles next month.

Less than 400 left — that's how many North Atlantic right whales remain in the world. These critically endangered whales are at the center of an urgent conservation story, but how the media communicates about them plays a powerful role in shaping public awareness and action. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, Andrew Lewin sits down with Dr. Marcus Reamer, a new PhD graduate in science communication, to explore how newspapers and digital outlets covered right whale crises over the past decade. Science communication emerges as a critical conservation tool, with Dr. Reamer sharing insights from his research on major publications like the New York Times, Washington Post, and LA Times. Together, they unpack why media coverage spikes during crises but fades when attention shifts elsewhere, and what this means for endangered species storytelling. Whale conservation depends not only on data and science but also on the narratives shared with the public. This conversation highlights how media framing can help or hinder conservation literacy, and how improved communication can increase support for saving one of the world's rarest whales.

Jarry traces the claim to a 2000 Institute of Medicine report and a 2016 BMJ paper co-authored by Dr. Marty Makary, exposing their flawed extrapolations from small, non-representative studies. He highlights issues like erroneous assumptions, small sample sizes, and the challenge of determining causality in deaths linked to errors. Jarry explains how this inflated statistic fuels fear, drives patients toward unproven alternative treatments, and erodes trust in healthcare. He offers practical ways to push back against the myth while acknowledging the need for improved patient safety systems. This episode is essential for healthcare professionals and patients seeking clarity on medical errors and their true impact.Three Actionable TakeawaysChallenge the Statistic with Facts – When confronted with the claim that medical error is the third leading cause of death, explain that it stems from flawed extrapolations (e.g., 62% of hospital deaths attributed to errors is unrealistic) and cite more reliable estimates (0.6%–5% of hospital deaths).Promote Patient Safety Transparently – Acknowledge medical errors as a real issue but emphasize ongoing efforts to improve safety, like rigorous error reporting systems, to maintain trust without dismissing legitimate concerns.Educate on Context – Share that small, non-representative studies (e.g., Medicare patients or regional data) were misused to inflate error rates, encouraging patients to seek evidence-based care rather than unproven alternatives.About the ShowSucceed In Medicine  covers patient interactions, burnout, career growth, personal finance, and more.

Andrew Humberman BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.This is Biosnap AI. In the past few days, the most concrete development is professional: the Huberman Lab site lists a new Monday release, How to Rewire Your Brain & Learn Faster with Dr. Michael…, signaling Andrew Huberman's continued weekly publishing cadence and emphasis on neuroplasticity protocols that could shape his public canon long term, according to Huberman Lab. Separately, the site is now prominently marketing his forthcoming book Protocols as an essential guide to brain, mood, energy and performance tools, which points to an ongoing business push beyond the podcast, per Huberman Lab. On social, a pair of Instagram posts tag Andrew Huberman in Stanford, California, crediting a photo by Andrew Huberman, Ph.D., which indicates a recent presence on set or behind the camera rather than a personal appearance; these are third‑party posts and should be treated as light confirmation only, via Instagram. Another reel promotes It was wonderful to finally sit down with my friend Andrew Huberman on his fantastic podcast, suggesting a newly recorded interview; this is promotional language from a guest and not a formal episode listing, so consider it pending until it appears on Huberman Lab or major podcast feeds, via Instagram.There is chatter about his personal life in recent days, but the sources driving it are low‑credibility blogs recycling speculation about a girlfriend or wife reveal without verifiable documentation or first‑party confirmation. Those pieces are not supported by reputable outlets or Huberman himself and should be considered unconfirmed and likely speculative.No major mainstream headlines or verified reporting in the last few days indicate new controversies, institutional roles, or legal matters tied to Huberman. No SEC‑style filings or credible business press items surfaced about new financings or corporate transactions involving Huberman Lab, his supplement collaborations, or platform deals. Public appearances on the calendar were not newly announced via his official channels in this window; any references to sit‑downs or appearances are either prerecorded podcast content in the release queue or guest‑driven social teases, which remain unverified until they post on his official feeds.Weighting for significance: the ongoing weekly episode cadence and the Protocols commercialization track are the developments most likely to have durable biographical impact, as they expand his body of work and revenue footprint. Social tags and guest teasers are minor signals. Personal‑life rumors currently lack verification and should not be treated as fact.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Andrew Humberman BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Andrew Huberman has remained at the forefront of neuroscience in the public eye this week, consistently capturing attention with both substance and style. Just days ago on August 7th, his top-rated Huberman Lab podcast released a highly anticipated episode featuring Dr. Craig Heller, the Stanford biologist renowned for his research on targeted cooling and athletic performance. The episode Essentials Increase Strength and Endurance with Cooling Protocols quickly amassed downloads and social chatter as it broke down cutting-edge protocols for core body temperature regulation, solidifying Huberman's role as the go-to for science-backed wellness, as reported by the official Huberman Lab podcast platform. In an unexpected crossover, Huberman's video segment How to Focus to Change Your Brain reemerged through educational channels, surfacing in advocacy webinars and training programs in early August, reflecting his growing footprint beyond just listeners and into health advocacy and mentoring spaces, according to MENTOR's Advocacy August Kickoff Webinar. Further fueling discourse, Huberman's all-business approach to self-improvement and neuroplasticity got a viral nudge on August 8th with the YouTube release of Why Comfort is Stunting Your Growth, which garnered over a million views in the first day, sparking threads across X, Instagram, and wellness subreddits about the merits of discomfort for mental growth. Meanwhile, social media continues to break down Huberman's tips, with an Instagram post dated August 5th from neurosciencenew highlighting fresh research on how the brain registers rewards, with several comments riffing on Andrew's past deep-dives and tagging the Lab podcast.Business news is percolating beneath the surface. Rumors that the Huberman Lab team is in talks with major streaming and education platforms about expanded content syndication have circulated but remain unconfirmed by any official outlet, leaving insiders and fans monitoring his channels for any sign of an announcement. In the academic world, Wilmington University News spotlighted Huberman's latest commentary on strategies to quit tobacco, further cementing his dual identity as both mainstream motivator and tenured professor. On the public appearance circuit, online audiences were treated to a keynote-style panel at GBCC2025, where Huberman reportedly addressed the psychology of deep, lasting relationships, a clip now trending among education influencers and relationship counselors. In summary, Andrew Huberman's past few days have demonstrated both sustained influence and dynamic evolution—simultaneously advancing physiological science, shaping public discourse, and fanning speculation about his next strategic moves.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Climate Crisis and Capitalism are at the heart of David Suzuki's powerful message in this episode. In a candid and impassioned reflection, Suzuki warns that if we continue to prioritize politics and the economy over protecting the environment, we may as well give up on climate action. He challenges the cultural obsession with perpetual economic growth, critiques the short-sightedness of political cycles, and urges a fundamental shift in our collective priorities. David Suzuki's call for transformation is both urgent and inspiring. He advocates for placing the environment at the center of all decision-making, recognizing that our survival depends on living within ecological limits. Drawing on decades of experience as a scientist, broadcaster, and environmental activist, Suzuki encourages individuals to embrace systems thinking, reevaluate their relationship with nature, and demand more from leaders who treat the planet as expendable. This is a wake-up call that goes beyond environmentalism—it's a call for a radical reimagining of our future.
