President Trump's H.R. 1 policy bill made deep cuts to Medi-Cal, the state's version of Medicaid. After weeks of debate in Sacramento over how to fund the program, Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a budget with a tax plan that could raise premiums by $100 a year for privately insured Californians. KQED's Lesley McClurg and Guy Marzorati discuss why this has become such a political battleground.  Then, Lesley talks with KFF's chief Washington correspondent Julie Rovner about the state of scientific research. The Trump administration is moving to give political appointees more power over who receives federal science and health grants, blocking funding for research that doesn't align with the president's policy priorities. Plus, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has escalated his fight with medical journals, calling them “corrupt” and threatening to prosecute them.  Check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠Political Breakdown's weekly newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠, delivered straight to your inbox.

The federal Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has proposed rule changes that would bring a major shift in how scientific grants are awarded by U.S. government agencies. Under the current process, researchers submit grant proposals that are then vetted and scored by a committee of experts in that scientific field, with top-scoring proposals recommended for funding. If its proposed changes are enacted, the OMB would insert a political review into the process, allowing administration officials to determine whether grant proposals are aligned with administration priorities, regardless of their scientific merit. Those proposed rules are now in a public comment period. Holden Thorp, editor in chief of the Science family of journals, joins Ira to explain why he called the change “another red alert for American science” in a recent editorial.

Why are some of the world's oldest healing practices suddenly exploding in modern wellness culture? In this episode, host Doug welcomes Dr. Tom Ingegno, a nationally recognized Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine with over two decades of clinical experience. As the founder of Charm City Integrative Health in Baltimore, Dr. Tom blends time-tested Eastern therapies with cutting-edge modalities like cryotherapy and red light therapy to reshape how we approach healing. Doug and Dr. Tom dive deep into the mechanics and history of cupping therapy, tracing its roots from grandmother's home remedies to a universal phenomenon shared across ancient Aztec, Incan, and Egyptian cultures. They explore how these traditional methods tap into a Jungian collective consciousness and how quantum physics is finally proving what Taoist masters illustrated 9,000 years ago. The conversation then shifts to the profound role of intuition and discernment in modern life. Dr. Tom shares how a dedicated, multi-decade meditation practice allowed him to cultivate clinical intuition—bypassing rigid textbook theory to read the subtle, energetic cues of his patients. Finally, the two pull back the curtain on the modern information landscape, offering sharp advice for men on how to develop the inner authority needed to spot fake AI content, manipulative health marketing, and the traps of the "shortcut" culture.

For years, one of the biggest criticisms of CrossFit has been that, Given every workout is different, it's difficult to measure and track training stress in a meaningful way. Dr. Jerry Mangine joins Doug Larson, Travis Mash, and Mike Lane to discuss a decade of research aimed at solving that problem. Jerry breaks down how his team analyzed every CrossFit Open workout ever performed, developed equations to quantify workload across different movements, and created a system for classifying workouts based on total work performed and the rate at which athletes complete it. The conversation explores why some workouts produce specific adaptations, how coaches can better manage training stress, and what the future of CrossFit programming might look like when workload can finally be measured objectively.   The discussion expands into broader athletic performance, including the impact of body type on CrossFit success, critical power testing, VO2 max, lactate tolerance, gymnastics versus weightlifting backgrounds, and how AI may soon automate performance analysis across sports. Jerry also shares his vision as founding director of Kennesaw State's new Human Sport Performance and Well-Being Research Center, where researchers are developing new technologies to help athletes and coaches make smarter decisions. Whether you're a CrossFit athlete, strength coach, sport scientist, or simply interested in how performance is measured and improved, this episode offers a fascinating look at where athletic monitoring and training optimization are headed next.

In this episode, host Jack Eidt delves into the groundbreaking archaeological discoveries at the Huaca Montegrande site in the Peruvian Amazon with guest Karen Gordon, an associate at ASICAMPE, the nonprofit Association for Scientific Research of the Peruvian Amazon [https://abundantearthfoundation.org/ancientcacao/]. They explore the ancient Marañon culture, their sophisticated agroforestry practices, and the origins of cacao, the plant responsible for the world's chocolate. Traces of cacao have been found in 6,000-year-old ceremonial pottery vessels from what is now recognized as the oldest monumental temple site in Peru, predating the pyramids of Egypt or Mesopotamia. Tune in to learn how these findings are rewriting the history of organized human settlement and spirituality in the ancient Amazon. Nominated as one of the Top 10 Archaeological Discoveries in the World, Montegrande is currently unearthing the story of the ancient Amazonian Marañon Culture and their sophisticated agroforestry practices, social structure, and cosmovision – 3,000 years before the more well-studied Inca and Nazca cultures.

Jason Kelly founded Ginkgo Bioworks in 2008 with a simple but radical idea: DNA is code, and cells are programmable. Sixteen years later, AI is finally making that vision real in ways that could reshape science itself. Jason describes a landmark collaboration with OpenAI in which a reasoning model with access to a robotic lab beat the state of the art in biochemistry by 40% - not by being smarter than scientists, but by running experiments 24 hours a day and sharing data across a hundred parallel hypotheses simultaneously. He argues that the biggest inefficiency in science isn't intelligence, it's manual labor. Once AI helps scale research, the cost of discovery collapses and breakthroughs follow, with profound implications for biopharma, national competitiveness, and human health.

Send a textWhat happens when the people closest to the patient lead the science that shapes their care? We sit down with guest editors Erik Fausak and Dr. Adesola Odunayo to unpack the first-ever JAVMA supplemental issue authored by credentialed veterinary technicians—and why it matters for outcomes, team culture, and the future of evidence-based practice.Across anesthesia, radiology, ECC, and surgery, credentialed veterinary technicians make thousands of critical decisions every day. That frontline view generates smart research questions: how to secure IV catheters, how long to hang fluid bags, which scrub protocols lower infection risk, and how to standardize monitoring that prevents complications. We explore how credentialed veterinary technician-led studies, from narrative and scoping reviews to original research, turn bedside insight into better protocols that any clinic can adopt.We also address barriers that hold technicians back: limited mentorship, scarce funding, minimal institutional credit, and no protected time to write. Erik and Adesola share workable fixes—establishing research mentors, pooling multi-site data to power studies, rewarding publications for techs, and using social media to both crowdsource questions and fight misinformation. The payoff is real: higher job satisfaction, stronger retention, and a team-wide shift from “evidence-based medicine” to “evidence-based practice,” where everyone participates in decisions that improve care.If you want a stronger hospital culture, safer anesthesia, cleaner lines, and a clearer career path for your credentialed technicians, this conversation offers a roadmap. Read the credentialed veterinary technician-led supplement, share it with your team, and start a study that answers a question from your treatment floor. Enjoyed the episode?

Can these animals we fear so much actually save us? Special thanks to Mike Criscitiello, David Schatz, Mary Rose Madden, Ryan Ogilvie, Margot Wohl, Sofi LaLonde, and Isabelle Bérubé.EPISODE CREDITS: Reported by - Becca BresslerProduced by - Becca Bressler and Matt KieltyOriginal music from - Matt Kielty and Jeremy BloomSound design contributed by - Matt Kielty, Jeremy Bloom, and Becca Bresslerwith mixing help from - Jeremy BloomFact-checking by - Diane Kellyand Edited by  - Pat WaltersSignup for our newsletter!!
