On July 12, 1979, Chicago's Comiskey Park erupted into chaos during what was supposed to be a quirky baseball promotion. Shock radio jock Steve Dahl's “Disco Demolition Night” incentivized listeners to bring disco records to a White Socks doubleheader, where, between games Dahl promised to blow them up in center field. Instead, the event descended into a riot, forcing the team to forfeit. On the surface, the incendiary event looked like a wild publicity stunt gone wrong — but in hindsight, it was tantamount to a book burning. In retrospect, the destruction of thousands of disco records was a symbolic rejection of the social meanings the sounds held, particularly for queer communities of color. The night marked not just the literal destruction of vinyl but a cultural turning point when disco's dazzling reign collapsed under backlash. Or did it? In this episode, we explore how a stadium stunt revealed the deeper racial, sexual, and generational tensions shaping American music at the dawn of the 1980s. In episode seven, host Ryan Purcell and Kristie Soares talk with Gillian Frank is a historian of gender, sexuality, religion, and politics in the twentieth-century United States at Trinity College, Dublin. He is a managing editor of NOTCHES: (re)marks on the history of sexuality and co-host of the podcast Sexing History, which explores how the past shapes contemporary debates about sex. Frank's scholarship has appeared in leading academic journals and edited volumes, and he has held research fellowships at Princeton and other institutions. His current book project examines the history of child adoption and foster care in the U.S., tracing how religion, race, and politics shaped family formation in modern America.

In this powerful episode of What Happens in Vagus, Dr. Stephanie Canestraro sits down with marketing strategist and Lyme warrior Allie Chandler to share their parallel journeys through chronic illness, mold exposure, POTS, and long COVID. Together, they uncover the hidden connections between stealth infections, environmental triggers, and dysautonomia symptoms many patients struggle to explain. Allie shares her decade-long experience with Lyme disease, mold toxicity, and functional medicine recovery—including the ups and downs of working high-stress jobs while healing—and reveals the holistic, functional, and sometimes unconventional protocols that moved the needle in her recovery, from limbic system retraining and EMDR to parasite cleansing and homeopathics. Dr. Steph discusses the importance of being non-dogmatic in healing, how the vagus nerve and lymphatic flow play a central role in chronic symptoms, and why open communication between patients and practitioners leads to breakthroughs. If you've ever felt dismissed by the conventional system, are navigating post-COVID or mold-related health challenges, or want to explore functional medicine tools for healing your heart, nervous system, and immune resilience, this episode offers both practical tips and hope. More on Allie:Allie Chandler, founder of Upsell Health (www.upsellhealth.com), is a leading marketing strategist specializing in functional medicine and wellness brands.

We're gonna go ahead and apologize in advance for any stumbles through this one. Sir Isaac Newton possessed a kind of brilliance that is very hard for the majority of people to really wrapped their heads around, and that includes us. Known as the Father of Modern Physics he didn't just help shape our understanding of the science of the natural world (not nature but the laws that govern nature, gravity, optics, movement, etc) but he deciphered a lot of the mysteries within it. He developed calculus because the math of his time wouldn't help him solve the questions he had. He discovered that light is made of a spectrum of colors that exist at all times even if we can't see them, and he revolutionized the understanding of gravity and planetary rotation. He was also human, who suffered from human flaws, vindictiveness being a pretty evident one.  But as with most genius there can be a mania that lies beneath. Join us as we get Historically High on the smartest man we've covered to date.Support the show

"The core difference is, instead of, once you've paid your employees and your expenses, what's left, instead of it just enriching the investors, it's given away to good causes." —Alex Amouyel   What if doing good didn't mean giving up your paycheck or your dreams? Maybe you're tired of hearing that business and kindness can't mix, or you wonder if your small actions really matter. Here's a fresh look at how purpose and profit can work together—and why your impact might be bigger than you think. Alex Amouyel has spent her career making a difference, from global nonprofits to leading Newman's Own Foundation. Her journey proves you don't have to choose between success and giving back. She brings bold, practical ideas for anyone who wants to build a business—or a life—that does real good. Hit play to get inspired and get real. You'll hear about profit-for-purpose models, honest truths about salaries and growth, the power of small actions, and how anyone can join the movement to make business a force for good.   Meet Alex:  Alex Amouyel is the President and CEO of Newman's Own Foundation, a private grantmaking foundation whose mission is to nourish and transform the lives of children who face adversity. She leads the Foundation's efforts to utilize 100% of the profits and royalties from the sale of Newman's Own products in service of this mission. Under Alex's leadership, Newman's Own Foundation co-founded the 100% for Purpose Club, a community of impact-driven business leaders and companies working to support and inspire the next generation of organizations to donate 100% of their profits for purpose. Her recent TED Talk, Can Salad Dressing Transform Capitalism?, explores the “100% for Purpose” movement and what it can teach us about doing business, philanthropy, and capitalism differently. Prior to her role at Newman's Own Foundation, Alex led MIT Solve as its Founding Executive Director with a mission to drive innovation to solve world challenges. She steered MIT Solve's growth to support over 268 Solver teams and Indigenous Communities Fellows, catalyzed over $60 million in commitments, and brokered more than 600 transformational partnerships. She also navigated the organization's response to the global pandemic, launched a Health Security & Pandemics Challenge, and expanded Solve's work on racial equity in the United States, including launching Solve's Indigenous Communities Fellowship and the Black & Brown Innovators Program. Over the course of her career, Alex has also served as the Director of Program for the Clinton Global Initiative and held roles at Save the Children International and the Boston Consulting Group.

Indian philosophy and the search for unityIn our everyday lives we act as though we are all separate individuals, but is this really the case? Jessica Frazer argues that reality is ultimately unified, and that this shift in perspective can change the way we live our lives. It can help you lose your isolated ego and escape feelings of alienation from nature and the universe. You can start to see that you are living out a strange, larger pattern of mysterious provenance and immense creative power that's generating everything you've ever seen.Jessica Frazier is a professor of theology and religion at Trinity College, Oxford, as well as a Fellow of the Oxford Centre for Hindu studies. During her academic career, she has explored key philosophical themes across various cultures, ranging from Indian concepts of 'Being' to 20th century phenomenology. In addition, Frazier is the founding editor of the 'Journal of Hindu Studies' and a frequent contributor to BBC radio.Don't hesitate to email us at podcast@iai.tv with your thoughts or questions on the episode!To witness such debates live buy tickets for our upcoming festival: https://howthelightgetsin.org/festivals/And visit our website for many more articles, videos, and podcasts like this one: https://iai.tv/You can find everything we referenced here: https://linktr.ee/philosophyforourtimesSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Dr. Laura welcomes Dr. Esther Sternberg, M.D., a Professor, Research Director, Speaker, and Author of the books Well at Work, Healing Spaces, and The Balance Within, to the podcast to talk about wellness at work and how workplace environments impact employees. Dr. Sternberg shares her career journey from her start in medical family practice through to becoming the Research Director at the Andrew Weil Center of Integrative Medicine. She and Dr. Laura talk about what factors impact health and overall wellness at work and how these can be improved.Dr. Sternberg delves into the insights in her book Well at Work and explains the seven domains of integrative health as defined by the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine. Sleep, resilience, environment, movement, relationships, spirituality, and nutrition are the seven domains, and they include things like how quickly we bounce back from stress, how clean our air is, and access to nature. Dr. Laura and Dr. Sternberg examine how office design, environmental location, common spaces that encourage relationships, and even temperature all play a key role in our workplace health. The conversation sheds light on how work isn't simply a place to invest time into productivity, but can positively or negatively impact our overall lives, and how redefining workplaces is a vital part of future discussions. “... if you're feeling too stressed or too activated, you want to do something that will tone down that stress response so you can perform at peak... If you're too stressed, you freeze, you're unable to focus. You're unable to do the job, the task at hand. So what helps you to move that stress response from the extreme danger zone back to performing at peak is places where you can go offline a little bit, where you can effectively meditate even though you're not sitting there with crossed legs in a lotus position in a yoga studio, although having spaces where some people can do that is is also beneficial. But a space, for example, [like] the gardens. To just walk in the gardens, to just take your brain off the computer for a while and focus on the green, on the plants.” - Dr. Esther SternbergAbout Dr. Esther Sternberg, M.D.:Dr. Esther Sternberg is internationally recognized for her discoveries in the science of the mind-body interaction in illness and healing, and the role of place in wellbeing. She is a pioneer and major force in collaborative initiatives on mind-body-stress-wellness and environment interrelationships. A dynamic speaker, she engages her audience with passion for her subject and compassion as a physician. Through stories, she provides listeners with many take-home tips to help them cope with stress and thrive, and to create wellbeing spaces wherever they work or live. Dr. Sternberg's three popular, highly readable, informative, and scientifically based books are inspirations for lay persons and professionals alike, seeking answers to the complexities and 21st-century frontiers of stress, place, healing, and wellness. Her award-winning book, WELL at WORK: Creating Wellbeing in Any Workspace (Little, Brown Spark, 2023) was named a Top Ten Lifestyle Book for Fall 2023 by Publishers Weekly and received the OWL (Outstanding Works of Literature) Longlist Award. Her two previous science-for-the-lay public books, Healing Spaces: The Science of Place and Well-Being and The Balance Within: The Science Connecting Health and Emotions, are landmark in its field. Healing Spaces was recognized by the President of the American Institute of Architects as an inspiration for launching the AIA's Design and Health Initiative and has inspired the implementation of healing spaces in hospitals across the country and around the world. Currently, Research Director, Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine and Founding Director of the University of Arizona Institute on Place, Wellbeing & Performance, she holds the Inaugural Andrew Weil Chair for Research in Integrative Medicine and is a Research Professor of Medicine with joint appointments as Professor in Psychology, Architecture, and Planning & Landscape Architecture, and in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, School of Nutritional Sciences and Wellness.

Her two decades-long research with the U.S. General Services Administration, using wearable devices to track health and wellbeing in the built office environment, is informing healthy design standards and COVID re-entry across the federal government and the private sector.Among other honors, she moderated a panel with the Dalai Lama, was recognized by the National Library of Medicine as one of the women who “Changed the Face of Medicine,” served as a member and Chair of NLM's Board of Regents, and received an Honorary Doctorate in Medicine from Trinity College, Dublin, on its 300th Anniversary.

It's claimed the imminent introduction of student accomodation in Clare won't drastcally shift the dynamic of the county's rental market without a continuous influx of supply. It comes as the findings of the latest Daft.ie quarterly report into the rental market has found the average monthy rent in the county for those moving into a new property has risen over 7% in a year to €1,529. 95 student beds are set to come on stream in Phoenix House in Shannon, which has been touted as having the potential to free up close to 20 properties on the rental market. Economist at Trinity College and author of the report, Ronan Lyons, has been telling Clare FM's Darragh O'Grady, that although it's a good first step, more projects of this kind are urgently needed in Clare.

For more than a decade, now, the world has been experiencing a process of “democratic backsliding,” while alternatives to governing by popular consent have gained popularity—even in the West. James Fishkin offers a path to improving not just the health of democracy, but the effectiveness of liberal democratic governments. Fishkin holds the Janet M. Peck Chair in International Communication at Stanford University where he is Professor of Communication, Professor of Political Science and Director of the Deliberative Democracy Lab. He is best known for developing Deliberative Polling®, a practice of public consultation that employs random samples of the citizenry to explore how opinions would change if they were more informed. His work on deliberative democracy has stimulated more than 100 Deliberative Polls in 28 countries around the world. It has been used to help governments and policy makers make important decisions in Texas, China, Mongolia, Japan, Macau, South Korea, Bulgaria, Brazil, Uganda and other countries around the world. He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, a Guggenheim Fellow, a Fellow of the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences at Stanford, and a Visiting Fellow Commoner at Trinity College, Cambridge.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Pomegranate Health has been streaming since June 2015, so we're going to share a few more classic eps from the last ten years. First up, presenter Mic Cavazzini digs deep to find the origins of the pomegranate, featured not just on this podcast but on the crest of the RACP. The journey starts 500 years ago at an unlikely place, the marriage of Henry VIII and the first of his six wives. You'll find much of the pageantry reproduced at the web page. We then hear from the wonderful staff at Marrabinya, a support service in western NSW that helps connect Aboriginal patients to specialist consultations. As heard in episode 53, and a handful of others, healthy equity for First Nations people is a value embedded in the mission of the RACP. At Pomegranate Health we also try to support physician wellbeing and career development. One podcast towards that end was Episode 55: Starting out in Private Practice. We hear a pep talk from veteran rheumatologist Louis McGuigan about when and how to back yourself in such a business venture. Another episode with a practical theme was number 56 titled “Billing in Byzantium” where we heard how it is that a few billion dollars are inappropriately leaked from Medicare every year. Finally, in a sample from Episode 69. we hear about some of the structural bias in the health system that results in a gendered understanding of drug effects. All of these episodes and more, are now available on YouTube, as well as all the usual podcast browsing apps. Sampled in this retrospective episode: Desley Mason, Possum Swinton and Kym Lees from Ep53: Marrabinya Dr Louis McGuigan from Ep55: Starting out in private practice Margaret Faux PhD from  Ep56: Billing in ByzantiumProfessor Zoe Wainer from Ep69: Gendered Medicine 2- Funding and Research Production CreditsProduced by Mic Cavazzini DPhil.

What physical activity gives you joy? Whether it's walking, running, dancing or swimming, your body evolved to do it. We are made for movement. But there's a cost, as anyone with a sore neck or aching back knows. From the tiny muscles in our skin, which raise the hair on our arms, to the intricate mix of bone, blood vessels, and nerves in our neck, natural selection has struck a delicate and sometimes wacky balance between utility and form. In this episode, we explore how parts of the body - our muscles, neck and feet - came to be, and what forces prompted the evolution of efficient yet imperfect bodies. Guests: Kent Dunlap - Professor of biology at Trinity College in Hartford, Connecticut and author of “The Neck: A Natural and Cultural History” Bonnie Tsui - Journalist and author of “On Muscle: The Stuff That Moves Us and Why It Matters” Jeremy DeSilva - Anthropologist at Dartmouth College and author of “First Steps, How Upright Walking Made Us Human” Featuring music by Dewey Dellay and Jun Miyake You can get early access to ad-free versions of every episode by joining us on Patreon.
