Tyler shot KirkNo get away planeNo body armorNo exploding micNo rear entry woundNo tactical gear guy No disassembling the gunNo Google Trends, that's verifiable No surgeon said anything to Andrew Kolvet about super bones. Surgeons don't even do autopsies the pathologist does. That holy roller tried to make up a miracle. He made up a lie. Miracles are not real. No 150 million from Netanyahu (Although he can drown in pig s**t.)No tunnels or trap doors Candace is the perfect example of how Noise is worshiped by the herd.They are so used to being lied to by the state that anyone with a big voice can say the most absurd alternative and they will be believed.Autopsy will be in the trial and they will say what type of bullet it was. Even a .30_06 going length wise isn't going to enter the neck and pop out his butthole. That bullet is in his torso. He was hit from above. We know because there is no exit wound. His chest also temporarily inflated the way animals do with a bullet pushed through liquid. But idiots will always find those to echo back their own stupidity. If you think any bullet hit his neck at a perpendicular angle and stopped your high. But kooks don't admit it went down the body lengthwise because then it's no longer a mystery or impossible and doesn't match the theory they were spoon fed by charlatans. The surest sign of a moron is the inability to admit being wrong.Candace has dishonest clout chasers whispering poison in her ears. She lacks the capacity to discern what is true and what is crap. Charlatans cannot exist without fools. Many influencers can only be as good as their handler. But this is exactly what the public wants. Twists and turns without evidence because its entertaining. It is how an idiot can pretend to know something. To the fool where arrogance and ignorance are a cross road, an eye roll is considered an argument. The justification for rejecting what makes sense boils down to saying “oh come on” code for spotting a group think deviation.Brigitte Macron is female (she had children)Tyler shot KirkEarth is round.

Going out in public became dreadfully uncomfortable for 75-year-old Dave Richards after an accident with a drunk driver four years ago in Devon, England. His bike got caught under the car, dragging him on the asphalt, tearing away much of his face, nose and neck. Surgeons had to remove his eye and cover the damaged area with a skin graft. The accident that nearly took his life, took his confidence until a team of experts at the Bristol 3D Medical Centre stepped in. Using advanced 3D scanning, design, and printing, they are rebuilding Dave Richards' face. Misha Newnham is one of the reconstructive scientists at the first of its kind centre in the UK. She explains this remarkable new technology and how it's pushing the boundaries of reconstructive medicine.

In 2023, 82% of nurses had experienced at least one workplace violence incident, and nearly half were experiencing even more violence. And it's not just nurses. Surgeons, ER docs, primary care physicians and others know violence in healthcare is on the rise. Erin Pastore and Marie Lopresti, two ED nurses in Philadelphia, share their personal experiences with violence in their workplace, and how to restore the balance we all - patients and practitioners, alike - need. Listener discretion advised.

Lacey Marie spent years fighting for her life against breast implant illness, bouncing between specialists who removed everything except the one thing she knew was making her sick, her implants. When genetic testing revealed she carried markers for breast cancer, an oncologist told her she was "lucky" because they could just remove her breast tissue and keep her implants. That's when she started pushing back. In this raw conversation, Lacey reveals why aesthetic flat closure remains a hidden option for most women, how geographic location dictates your surgical choices, and what happened when she finally got surgeons to listen. This isn't just about choosing not to reconstruct, it's about fighting for the right to make that choice in the first place. IN THIS EPISODE WE'LL: * Discover why aesthetic flat closure is rarely presented as an option and what that reveals about medical bias in women's health * Understand how dense breast tissue, implants, and genetic markers create a perfect storm for surveillance challenges * Learn what "botched" flat closure really means and why surgeons leave excess tissue "just in case you change your mind" * Explore the mental health journey of reclaiming femininity and sexuality without breasts * Break through the access barriers that determine which reconstruction options you'll even hear about based on where you live CHECK OUT THESE EPISODES: Dr. Pompa on Still Feeling Sick After Explant: Breast Implants & Detox Lies: https://youtu.be/UVm7NWvp88k Natalie Jill's Explant Story: Informed Midlife Choices: https://youtu.be/hjvZQ58ySK0 Links and Resources boobless.life website: https://boobless.life/ Lacey's TED Talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_APuiU03k8 Let's Connect Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/breast-implant-illness/id1678143554 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1SPDripbluZKYsC0rwrBdb?si=23ea2cd9f6734667 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drrobertwhitfield?_t=8oQyjO25X5i&_r=1 IG: https://www.instagram.com/breastimplantillnessexpert/ FB: https://www.facebook.com/DrRobertWhitfield Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-robert-whitfield-md-50775b10/ X: https://x.com/rob_whitfieldmd Read this article - https://www.breastcancer.org/treatment/surgery/breast-reconstruction/types/implant-reconstruction/illness/breast-implant-illness Shop: https://drrobssolutions.com SHARP: https://www.harp.health NVISN Labs - https://nvisnlabs.com/ Get access to Dr. Rob's Favorite Products below: Danger Coffee - Use our link for mold free coffee - https://dangercoffee.com/pages/mold-free-coffee?ref=ztvhyjg JASPR Air Purifier - Use code DRROB for the Jaspr Air Purifier - https://jaspr.co/ Echo Water - Get high quality water with our code DRROB10 - https://echowater.com/ BallancerPro - Use code DRROBVIP for the world's leader in lymphatic drainage technology - https://ballancerpro.com Ultrahuman - Use code WHITFIELD10 for the most accurate wearable - https://www.ultrahuman.com/ring/buy/us/?affiliateCode=drwhitfield

Send us a textWhat if the worst day of your life was not a spiritual ambush but a sovereign appointment? We open the book of Job and trace a hard but hopeful line: God permits and sets the limits, Satan merely acts as the instrument, and the purpose is your refinement, not your ruin. That single shift—seeing the Surgeon instead of staring at the scalpel—changes how we pray, endure, and worship when the ground gives way.We walk through Job's opening scene where God commends His servant and grants permission with boundaries, revealing a world ruled by wisdom, not chaos. From there, we tackle a common mistake: attributing to the enemy what God authors for our good. That confusion not only robs us of comfort; it quietly dishonors the Lord. We explore how Proverbs reframes correction as love, why rejoicing in trials is a learned reflex, and how endurance grows when Scripture retrains our instincts. Along the way, we confront performative Christianity—public display without private integrity—and ask whether our devotion holds when applause fades and losses mount.This conversation also zooms out to the state of the modern church. Distractions multiply, easy-believism spreads, and fear-of-the-enemy theology steals attention from the One who actually holds power. Yet hope remains: Christ keeps a people who love the Word, embrace discipline, and refuse to bow to comfort. Real ministry looks like real-time care, honest questions, and a shared commitment to suffer well under God's hand. If your faith has been shaken by hardship, consider this a steadying invitation to trust the God who wounds to heal, tests to prove, and prunes to make you fruitful.If this reframed your view of suffering, share the episode, leave a review, and subscribe so you won't miss what's next. Your story could help someone else find courage when the knife feels closest.Support the showBE PROVOKED AND BE PERSUADED!

Behind every product on the OR shelf is a story of collaboration, evaluation, and evidence-based decision-making, not just a surgeon's request. This week we sit down with Joe Chua, OR Nurse and Value Analysis Professional from Dallas, Texas, to unpack the complex process of how surgical products make it from idea to implementation. Together, we'll explore the intersection of clinical practice and supply chain strategy, the importance of communication between teams, and the critical role of value analysis in supporting patient safety and financial stewardship. If you've ever wondered how product decisions are really made in healthcare, you won't want to miss this conversation. #operatingroom #supplychain #ornurse #scrubtech #podcast

I grew up with a very different perspective on personal finance and investing than most. My parents were immigrants, and when they arrived in this country, they didn't come with any preconceived notions of conventional financial wisdom. My father grew up dirt poor in India—that's really poor and he had never even heard of investing as a kid. But he was blessed with a tremendous intellect and used it to rise from nothing to truly live the American dream. He came to the U.S. in the 1960s on an engineering scholarship and started working as a bridge engineer in Minnesota. When he finally began making a little money, he was confronted with the idea of investing for the first time.  Until then, life had always been hand-to-mouth. So he was approaching investing like an alien coming to this planet for the first time with an unbiased view on anything financial. With that perspective, the stock market didn't make sense to him. He wanted cash flow that would immediately improve his quality of life. Intuitively, it felt smarter to buy “streams of cash” than to “gamble” on stocks. So with whatever money he could scrape together, he bought small rental properties. Nothing glamorous—mostly low-income houses and duplexes in Minneapolis. But guess what? It worked. Before long, he started making real money and quit engineering altogether. The apple didn't fall far from the tree, I guess. Years later, I would also walk away from my career as a doctor to become a full-time investor. My father did really well. By the 1980s, he was having million-dollar years—that's a lot now, but back then it was a lot more! But then came the '90s. Like many others in the dot-com era, he got in over his skis. It seemed like everyone was making easy money in the stock market, and he got greedy.  Unfortunately, he sold a large chunk of his real estate portfolio and went all in on tech. And of course, we all know how that story ended—the bubble burst and so did his brokerage account. So there he was, in his 50s, starting over again after being obliterated by the dotcom bubble. He was terrified. But he knew what he had to do. He had to rebuild the same way he had built wealth the first time: cash-flowing real estate. Today, in his 80s, he's still at it. To be clear, his real estate career wasn't all smooth sailing either. This isn't a fairy tale. It's real life. For example, in the late '90s, Alan Greenspan suddenly cranked up interest rates, creating a situation not unlike what investors faced post-COVID when the Fed raised rates at record speed.  That hurt him, but each setback brought lessons, and he kept moving forward with an asset class that he trusted. Eventually, he recovered. We were always comfortable, and my dad made enough to pay for 3 kids' college tuition and medical school for me while still living comfortably, traveling, and enjoying his life. He'll be the first one to tell you that he only ever made money in real estate and that's what he believes in. Now, why am I telling you all this? I'm telling you this story because it shaped the way I see investing. Unlike most, I grew up hearing that the stock market was risky and that real estate was the safer, smarter path—pretty much the opposite of what everyone around me grew up with. And despite my own challenges from the post-COVID rate hikes, I can still say without hesitation that focusing on real estate has served me better than following the traditional investing playbook. Still, no one wins all the time. Every investor loses money sometimes. Surgeons have a saying: “If you haven't had a complication, you haven't done enough surgery.” That's as true for the best surgeons in the world as it is for the best investors. So what do you do? Sitting on cash guarantees you'll lose purchasing power to inflation. Money markets barely keep up. For me, the answer is to keep investing with discipline. Real estate is my medium, and like my father,

In this episode, Lillian Erdahl, MD, FACS, is joined by Eilidh Gunn, MBChB MRCSEd, from the Surgical Sabermetrics Laboratory at the University of Edinburgh. They discuss Dr Gunn's recent article, “What About the Coach? Mixed-Methods Study Assessing the Experience of Coaches in a Peer Surgical Coaching Program.” As peer-led surgical coaching becomes an increasingly popular professional development activity, this study explores the impact of participation on surgeons acting as coaches. Using a concurrent, mixed-methods design, results demonstrate that coaches found participation worthwhile and that it affected their own clinical practice.

Casey Means faces lawmakers on Thursday, as they vet her nomination for the nation's top medical post: the U.S. surgeon general. Means has been a prominent critic of the medical establishment. She could soon be put in a position to change it.Means, 38, resigned from her final year of medical residency to become a health products entrepreneur, a popular online personality with a best-selling book about “Good Energy,” and a leading figure in the “Make America Healthy Again” movement. Critics say she has a history of saying things in potentially misleading and scientifically inaccurate ways. In a statement, the Department of Health and Human Services called Means a “world-class physician and scientist whose nomination as Surgeon General reflects her deep understanding of modern metabolic health and her fierce commitment to evidence-based care.” Today, host Elahe Izadi speaks with Lauren Weber, The Post's health and science accountability reporter, about her and her colleague Rachel Roubein's exclusive reporting on the rise of Casey Means, her financial interests, and how her collision course with the medical establishment could shake up American medicine. Today's show was produced by Elana Gordon. It was edited by Reena Flores and mixed by Sam Bair.

Near-Death experiences, demon-possessed cars, miraculous lottery wins, and miracles that seem absolutely unbelievable – this week on the show I'm by Dr. John Sottosanti, an atheist surgeon, to tell his outrageous conversion to Catholicism and a deeper faith in Christ. Raised nominally Catholic, John drifted away from the faith an into a successful dental practice but was hounded – haunted, even – by the Catholicism of his childhood. Confronted, again and again, by the most incredible miracles this is the story of the "Hound of Heaven," and His pursuit of even the one lost sheep – until he came back into the fold. This is such an amazing story.

“It wasn't like overnight I woke up and I was like, I don't like medicine anymore... It was just like this gradual onslaught and accumulation of events that felt very much like beating my head against a wall, just trying to do my job.” -Sarah Temkin, MDIn this powerful conversation, Dr. Sarah Temkin—gynecologic oncologist turned first-time filmmaker—shares her journey from loving clinical medicine to leaving practice in 2020, and how those experiences inspired her documentary “1001 Cuts” about women surgeons.Dr. Temkin reveals the accumulation of challenges women face in male-dominated fields: from being told she was “too nice” to be a surgeon, to equipment that doesn't fit female hands, to the exhausting tightrope of being perceived as either too aggressive or not assertive enough. Yet this episode is ultimately about hope and change. Dr. Temkin's documentary has sparked conversations across professions, with women in law, journalism, and trades recognizing their own experiences. She calls for a generational shift toward medicine that maintains excellence while accommodating diverse personalities, schedules, and bodies—creating space for all the talent we're currently losing.Guest BioDr. Sarah Temkin is a gynecologic oncologist who spent over two decades providing surgical and medical care for women with cancer. She is widely published in medical literature and has contributed to conversations about equity in healthcare throughout her career. After leaving clinical practice in 2020, she became a first-time filmmaker, directing and producing the documentary “1001 Cuts,” which examines the experiences of women surgeons and has become an educational tool for medical institutions nationwide.Resources* “1001 Cuts” Documentary - Learn more about the film and opportunities to hold educational screenings in your organization or community.* Impact Campaign Partnership - The Video Project and American Medical Women's Association collaborationA Mind of Her Own explores the intersection of gender, health, and professional life through conversations with remarkable individuals.Find Dr. Reid on Instagram: @jenreidmd, LinkedIn, and YouTubeYou can also preorder Dr. Reid's book, Guilt Free!

We know science can only explain certain facts, so how important is faith when it comes to healing? These concepts can exist together. Lisa continues the interview today with our guest, Dr. Gary Simonds, a retired neurosurgeon who's treated tens of thousands of patients. Today he talks about burnout in the healthcare system, especially during and after Covid. He explains how we are all constantly depositing or withdrawing energy from our energy bank. When we are not replenishing, we can get burnt out. We may feel like we are not contributing. Dr. Simonds has worked with world experts researching physician burnout and our healthcare system. He suggests how stillness and meditation are very beneficial to everyone. Dr. Simonds also describes what the brain actually looks like, its blood supply, and its need for constant oxygen. He talks about how social isolation impairs brain function. It is so important to seek out community. He further discusses the importance of sleep and rest for a healthy brain, and how mindfulness can provide a sense of balance as it can change the brain alignment. He stresses the importance of keeping a positive attitude and focusing on resilience. Dr. Simonds suggests practicing gratitude and asks us to think of 3 things we are grateful for throughout the day. He explains how our brains actually have a different chemical reaction when looking for the positive. He suggests considering uplifting material or realizing something as simple as a smile. Sometimes we need to force ourselves to look for the positive. As a neurosurgeon, doctors typically look for the worst-case scenario, so they can plan in advance if something goes wrong. He talks about consciously directing thoughts toward possibilities and solutions. Dr. Simonds, as an expert neurosurgeon, also discusses how to deliver difficult news, while managing expectations.  He's had to do it so many times, with many patients and families. He explains how it's all about trust -- a delicate walk between honesty and compassion with empathy.  An expert on burnout and trauma, Dr. Simonds is the Founding Chief of Neurosurgery at the Carilion Clinic, Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine (retired) and the author of three non-fiction books. "Death's Pale Flag" is his first novel and his latest book. This is Part 2 of the interview. Info: GaryRSimonds.com.

A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show.  I've been coaching people one-on-one for seven years, and in that time, I picked up some ideas that, when adopted by clients, almost always guarantee they will transform their time management and productivity.  None of these ideas is revolutionary, which isn't surprising since people have long struggled with time management and productivity issues.  Our attitude to time and the expectations of others has changed, but the amount of time we have hasn't.  Technology, rather than helping us to do more in less time, has elevated the amount we are expected to do.  Fifty years ago, we might have received thirty letters; today, technology has elevated the number of digital letters and messages we receive into the hundreds. And while we may be quicker at responding, we're not realistically able to respond to hundreds of emails and messages each day and still produce work.  (Even though I know a number of you are trying) It goes back to what I wrote and spoke about two or three years ago, fashions may change, but the principles don't.  AI and ChatGPT are all the rage today. If you've gone down that rabbit hole, you will have been blown away by what it can do. It's incredible.  Yet what is it doing? It is making some parts of our work faster. Yet, most people still don't have enough time to do all their work. What's happening?  Well, telling everyone that you can now produce a sales review presentation in less than twenty minutes with the help of ChatGPT means you are now expected to create more presentations.  That sales review presentation may have taken you two days before, but now, if you can do it in twenty minutes, boom! Your boss can give you more work to do!  So what are the traits, best practices and ideas that do work that the people who have seen a massive increase in their time management and productivity follow?  Well, that's the subject of this week's question. And that means it's time for me to hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question. This week's question comes from Lauren. Lauren asks, “Hi Carl, I know you have been coaching people for a long time, and I am curious to know what the most productive people you meet do that is different from those less successful at it.”  Hi Lauren, thank you for your question.  As I eluded to, the most productive people I've coached follow principles, not fashions, and are ruthless with their time allocation.  Those principles are to collect everything, process what you gathered, eliminate unnecessary things, and allocate time for doing what's left.  But it goes a little deeper than that.  First, you need to know what is important to you. That relates to your Areas of Focus. Those are the eight areas of life we all share but will define and prioritise differently.  Things like, your family and relationships, career, finances, health and fitness and self-development.  Knowing what these mean to you and what priority they are in your life goes a long way to helping you to build productive days.  Almost every client of mine that has significantly improved their time management have gone through the Areas of Focus exercise and defined each one.  The second part to this is to be clear about what your core work is. This is the work you are employed to do.  What I found interesting is that my YouTube Short video with the fewest views is the one asking the question: What are you employed to do?”  That doesn't surprise me. Going through and defining your Areas of Focus and core work is not sexy. Quick fixes, new tools and apps are the sexy things, yet none of those will ever help you regain control of your time.  Sure, they are fun, exciting and interesting to explore. But they are distractions that will never help you be better at managing your time.  (I learned that one the hard way. I used to waste so much time each week playing with new apps, programmes and tools)  Speaking of tools, I have noticed that the most productive people use simple tools. Often it's Microsoft ToDo or Apple's Reminders. Quite a few use Todoist, but I suspect that's because I have done nearly four hundred videos on Todoist and many of my clients found me through YouTube.  People who struggle the most are using project management tools like ClickUp or Monday.com. Those types of tools require far too much maintenance to keep them up-to-date and that takes time away from you doing the work you are organising.  It's as the old saying goes, you're trying to crack a nut by using a sledge hammer.  But, the stand out change that people make that has the biggest impact on their time management and overall productivity is they get ruthless with their time allocation.  And I mean ruthless.  For example, one long term client, now a senior executive in his company, will not allow any meetings on a Monday morning or a Friday afternoon. Those times are blocked on his calendar.  He uses that time for doing his most important work for that week.  Three hours Monday morning and three hours Friday afternoon. That's six hours he knows will not be interrupted and so he can confidently allocate work to those times. I remember when we first started. He was all over the place. He had meetings lined up Monday through Friday and couldn't even find a hour to quietly get on with his work.  His default answer to any request was “yes” and it was destroying him.  Now, not only does he have greater respect for his own time, his colleagues also do. Nobody even bothers to ask for a meeting on a Monday morning or Friday afternoon because they know he will say no.  The key here is to get control of your calendar. (Another principle). If you're not in control there, it doesn't matter what you do elsewhere because you've lost control in the one area that determines what you do and when.  Everyone will be different here.  I have one client who's a surgeon and a professor. She has to divide her time between the operating room and the classroom.  Her surgery hours are fixed. So, she knows she will be in the operating room on a Tuesday and Thursday. Her teaching hours vary according to each semester, but once the academic year begins, her lecture times are fixed.  These times are locked into her calendar. But she goes further. She knows that she will have to meet with patients and students. So, Wednesdays are dedicated for patients. She will visit the patients she will be operating on the next day and deal with any out-patient clinics on a Wednesday.  So three days a week are dedicated to her role as a surgeon.  She will do her academic work on Mondays and Fridays. Most of her lectures are in the mornings, and she will stay in her office in the afternoons so she's available for students if they need her.  What she has done is to become ruthless with how she allocates her time each week. Her calendar is sacred territory.  She does open Saturday mornings during exam times so students can access her if needed, and she can do any outstanding admin work in between.  What got her back in control was taking back control of her calendar and saying “no” to requests that did not fit in with her priorities.  And this is where it's hard for most people. Getting control of their calendar. The easy part is organising and reorganising your task manager. Really all you are doing there is moving things around.  When it comes to getting control of your calendar you have to interact with other people and that means in some instances you will need to say No.  And there human nature will challenge us. We're wired to “please people”. So saying “no, I cannot meet with you” is tough. It's easier to find an excuse why you are different to everyone else.  Yet, you don't have to say no. You can use services such as Calendly, that lets you pick times you will be available for meetings and all you need do is share your unique link with people requesting a meeting with you. They can then choose a time that works for them without all the hassle of trying to find a time.  Technology has conditioned us to become comfortable with automated systems. There's little to no pushback these days. In fact I'd go as far as to say that people much prefer to choose their appointment time from an online booking service.  Another long-time client of mine is a financial advisor. He adopted Calendly for his clients to use to book a call with him.  He was expecting a lot of pushback from his clients. Instead he got a lot of compliments. They loved it. They could book a time to talk with him from the comfort of their own sofa late at night without having to call or message him during “office hours”. Now, whenever he gets a message or email requesting a meeting, he sends them the link to his booking service.  This means he's in complete control of his time. He can open or close meeting time slots during his weekly planning sessions, and he knows when he will be meeting clients so he can be better prepared for the meeting.  And speaking of weekly planning. This is possibly the number one idea that brings the most significant improvement.  Consistently planning the week is really a no-brainer no matter what role you have in your professional and personal life.  The senior executive, surgeon and financial advisor I previously mentioned wouldn't dream of beginning a week without a plan. It's how they can manage conferences, holidays and other extraordinary weeks.  Without a plan for the week, it's like setting out on a journey without knowing where you are going. You'll get somewhere but highly likely it'll be a place you do not want to be.  The weekly plan is about deciding what is important to you that week. What projects need attention, where your meetings are, and what you want to accomplish.  For instance, many of my clients will decide when they will exercise at a weekly level. They'll decide how many times they want to go to the gym or out for a run and set that as an objective. This gives them the flexibility they need to ensure they are getting the right things done whilst taking care of the personal maintenance we all need of the right amount of sleep, exercise and eating the right food types.  The final piece is the daily planning. This is where you decide at a task level what needs to be done.  Because the world we live in today is fast moving, there will likely be things on your weekly plan that need to change. It's the daily planning where you can make those adjustments.  For example, if the senior executive came into work one day and walked into a crisis such as what recently happened to Jaguar Land Rover with the cyber attack, his whole week would need to change. It's at a daily level that those changes can be taken care of.  Meetings can be cancelled, auto reply can be set up on email services to explain why they cannot respond to emails and messages, etc.  That might be extreme, but it clearly can happen and things will need to change.  So there you go, Lauren. The people who get it, who are living productive and well managed lives follow a few simple principles.  They follow the COD methodology—collect stuff, organise and process that stuff, eliminating the unimportant and then ensure they get on with the work.  They ruthlessly protect their time on their calendars and never delegate management of their calendar to anyone else.  They plan the week and day to ensure they are working on the right things at the right time and are clear about what is important to them.  I hope that has helped and thank you for your question. It just remains for me to wish you all a very very productive week.

It's what to look for, what to ask, what screenings you *actually need* (not just what is offered), and every decision point you have (even if it's not offered to you) if you are facing surgery.   This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Glennon, Abby, and Amanda empower us with the most vital tool we have: information. Amanda reflects on how self-advocacy led her to her own breast cancer diagnosis—and we hear from the pod squad about how Amanda's transparency helped save their lives. Then, we're joined by Amanda's renowned doctor, Dr. Lucy M. De La Cruz, who reminds us that every patient has agency—and shares how to choose the treatment path that's right for you. And special shout out and thanks to Pod Squader Lori Mihalich-Levin (@mindfulreturn) for being such a special part of this story! If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with breast cancer, please save this episode or send it to the people you love. We love you.  For more on Amanda's Breast Cancer journey:  - Amanda's Diagnosis and What's Next (Part 1) - Amanda's Diagnosis and What's Next (Part 2) - Amanda Returns Post Surgery: Here's What She Wants You to Know  - What Amanda's Learned About Life, Love & Community (Post Surgery Pt 2)  - Early Detection, Mammograms & Breast Cancer Care with Dr. Rachel Brem  - Expert Advice on Genetic Testing, Cancer Prevention & Care Disparities with Dr. Rachel Brem  About Dr. De La Cruz:  Dr. Lucy M.

Quacks, wise women, barber surgeons and private madhouses - just some of the options available if you were to find yourself in ill health in the 16th and 17th centuries. Dan is joined by historian Dr Alanna Skuse to look at healthcare in Renaissance England, from healing the humours and blood letting to cross animal blood transfusions, skin grafts that involved attaching the face to the upper arm and the notorious treatments of patients at Bedlam, Britain's most famous psychiatric hospital. But not all treatments were bizarre or gruesome; in fact, early practitioners had some pretty progressive ideas around holistic health, the benefits of nature, sleep and friendship.Alanna shares astonishing stories of treatments, patients and practitioners from her new book 'The Surgeon, the Midwife and the Quack: How to Stay Alive in Renaissance England'Produced by Mariana Des Forges and edited by Dougal PatmoreWe'd love to hear your feedback - you can take part in our podcast survey here: https://insights.historyhit.com/history-hit-podcast-always-on.You can also email the podcast directly at ds.hh@historyhit.com.

Dr. Robert Hoffman is the Professor of Pediatrics at The Ohio State University College of Medicine and Nationwide Children's Hospital. He earned his M.D. from The Ohio State University, completed his pediatric residency at Akron Children's Hospital, and completed his fellowship at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh. Dr. Hoffman is also a member of the Scientific Policy Committee of the American College of Pediatricians. He has recently revised an important report titled Marijuana Use: Detrimental to Youth. A recent press release spoke of an "American College of Surgeons report revealing that over 40% of deceased drivers in motor vehicle crashes over the past six years tested positive for THC, the psychoactive component of marijuana." This alarming statistic underscores a persistent and growing public health crisis. While this study does not specifically indicate the ages of the drivers, previous evidence shows that young adults are disproportionately prone to risky or impaired driving behaviors, particularly when under the influence of drugs or alcohol. While there are claims that marijuana is harmless, there are also many adverse effects that not only impact the user, but also children are being impacted as well.
