Today's episode examines the thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN), a GABAergic structure that filters sensory inputs to the thalamus, influencing sensory processing and attention in Autism. We'll explore how TRN dysfunction contributes to sensory hypersensitivity, repetitive behaviors, and cognitive strengths like visual thinking. We cover the TRN's visual, somatosensory, auditory, and limbic sectors, using vivid analogies like a security guard and staring contest to illustrate its role. These mechanisms are linked to the Autistic phenotype's challenges and unique perceptual abilities.Daylight Computer Company, use "autism" for $50 off athttps://buy.daylightcomputer.com/autismChroma Light Devices, use "autism" for 10% discount athttps://getchroma.co/?ref=autismuse "autism" for 10% discount at Fig Tree Christian Golf Apparel & Accessories https://figtreegolf.com/?ref=autismCognity AI for Autistic Social Skills, use "autism" for 10% discount athttps://thecognity.com00:00 Thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN), GABAergic neurons, sensory gating03:42 TRN functional roles, sensory gating, attentional modulation, brainwave generation, neuro-overload prevention07:44 TRN inputs, basal ganglia, repetitive behaviors11:15 Cognitive flexibility, prefrontal cortex, dorsal striatum, rigid responses, Autistic rigidity14:38 TRN outputs, feedback inhibition, excitatory neurons, sensory tuning, gamma oscillations18:35 Burst firing, tonic firing, sensory suppression, attention regulation, sleep spindles22:12 Visual sector, "staring contest" analogy, parvalbumin & VIP interneurons, lateral geniculate nucleus, visual gating25:50 Somatosensory sector, ventral basal complex, tactile hypersensitivity, sensory-emotional integration29:15 Auditory sector, medial geniculate nucleus, auditory sensitivity, social processing deficits, clusters of noises in the environment, Beatles song comparison33:00 Limbic sector, mediodorsal nucleus, anterior insula, emotional regulation, OCD-like behaviors, Leading the way in Adaptive Responses36:47 TRN security guard analogy, sensory control, thoughts and plans, high-intensity stimuli40:20 Visual attention, high gamma activity, subtle environmental cues, Autistic cognitive strengths41:06 Daylight Computer Company, use "autism" for $50 discount43:25 Chroma Light Devices, use "autism" for 10% discountX: https://x.com/rps47586YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGxEzLKXkjppo3nqmpXpzuAemail: info.fromthespectrum@gmail.com

**Producer's note. As listeners know, this summer Red Media was proud to organize a book tour celebrating the publication of John Redhouse's book, Bordertown Clashes, Resource Wars, and Contested Territories in the Four Corners: The Turbulent 1970s. As part of the tour, TRN comrades recorded a bonus episode for patrons to reflect on the tour and what they learned from John in person. Unfortunately, in the tumult of the summer, I completely forgot to work on the episode! My apologies to you all and the TRN comrades who recorded it. I decided to unlock the episode and put it on the free feed. I hope you enjoy it; it's a fantastic conversation.** TRN Comrades got together shortly after the end of the John Redhouse book tour to discuss their experiences.

We recently replayed an episode from 2017 called, "Sh!t You Don't Do on the Trail" with Tim Twietmeyer and Bob Crowley. We had so much fun walking down memory lane, we thought we should update it for 2024. Since we are near the start of Western States 100, we thought we'd skew it towards this race, but many of the principles mentioned are applicable wherever you are running. And of course, it wouldn't be in TRN style without gamifying the episode :). So Bob and Tim used descriptive but cryptic titles for each topic. We have to guess what they are referring to. We hope you have fun playing along. Tim Twietmeyer is Vice President of the Western States Endurance Run Board and board member since 1996. He is also the only person to finish the race 25 times....all under 24 hours! Oh.....and he won the race FIVE times! Bob Crowley is a past president of ITRA, the International Trail Running Association, and a seasoned runner with notable finishes of over 80 ultras including 2019's Tor des Geants and the 2023 Tahoe 200 mile race. Both are members of History Expeditions, where they take their passion for history and bring it to life through expeditions that combine historical research and adventure. So far they have completed four expeditions. You can find out more at historyexp.org.

For decades, prisoners' rights advocates have called on the State of Maryland to address its flagrant discrimination against prisoners housed in the state's sole women's prison. As The Real News has previously reported, conditions in the Maryland Correctional Institute for Women are akin to "torture," and the lack of resources and services dedicated to incarcerated women amounts to state-sanctioned, gender-based discrimination. Christina Merryman and Ameena Deramous, both former inmates in the MCIW—or the "Women's Cut"—join Rattling the Bars, explaining the conditions faced by incarcerated women in Maryland, and what advocates inside and outside the prison walls are doing to fight for justice, in the first half of this two-part panel.Studio Production: David HebdenPost-Production: Cameron GranadinoHelp us continue producing Rattling the Bars by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Sign up for our newsletterLike us on FacebookFollow us on TwitterDonate to support this podcast

Impact of AI: What does Nicolai believe the impact of AI will be on society and productivity? What is his approach to investing in it moving forward? 3. Bitcoin: Why does Nicolai not want to hold Bitcoin? Why does he not understand it? 4. China: What would need to happen for China to be investable? How will the China situation play out? 5.

How will we overcome our greatest challenges?
The system of mass incarceration in the US offers few second chances to prisoners, and Maryland is no exception. As The Real News has previously reported, the state's parole system puts incarcerated people at the mercy of an inefficient, capricious process that is unlikely to deliver a speedy release for many. Now, a new bill in the Maryland legislature could create new pathways to freedom for prisoners who've served 20 years or more behind bars. Alonzo Turner Bey and Desmond Haneef Perry of the MD Second Look Coalition join Rattling the Bars to discuss the Second Look Act (SB123).Additional links:MD Second Look Coalition FacebookContact Maryland state legislators to support the Second Look ActStudio / Post-Production: Cameron GranadinoHelp us continue producing Rattling the Bars by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Sign up for our newsletterLike us on FacebookFollow us on TwitterDonate to support this podcast
Rebecca O'Keeffe helped spark an international firestorm within the world of sports when she called on the Irish women's basketball team to boycott its Feb. 8 match against Israel. While O'Keeffe's calls for a boycott ultimately went unheeded, her actions have provoked serious debate within Ireland and internationally on the responsibility of athletes to stand up against genocide. O'Keeffe joins Edge of Sportshost Dave Zirin for an exclusive interview on why she took a stand, how the sports world responded, and why she refuses to back down.Studio Production: David HebdenPost-Production: Taylor HebdenAudio Post-Production: David HebdenOpening Sequence: Cameron GranadinoMusic by: Eze Jackson & Carlos GuillenHelp us continue producing Edge of Sports with Dave Zirin by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Sign up for our newsletterLike us on FacebookFollow us on TwitterDonate to support this podcast
One year ago, graduate student-workers at Johns Hopkins University overwhelmingly voted to unionize under the banner of Teachers and Researchers United (TRU-UE), which is affiliated with United Electrical, Radio, and Machine Workers. While workers had much to celebrate with their historic union election victory, bargaining a first contract with the university administration has been another story. On February 20, fed up with what workers say have been disrespectful and insufficient offers from the university administration, TRU-UE members held practice pickets on campus to show the administration what's in store if more progress is not made at the bargaining table soon. In this on-the-ground episode, we take you straight to the picket line to hear from worker-organizers about what they're fighting for and what they're asking supporters to do to help.Speakers include: Janvi Madhani, TRU Bargaining Committee member pursuing a PhD in Physics and Astronomy; Lyla Atta, TRU organizer and MD-PhD candidate in Biomedical Engineering; Jeffrey Davis, Bargaining Committee member and grad worker studying Physics and Astronomy; Emily Hoppe, Contract Action Team Organizer, School of Nursing; and Zeke Cohen, Johns Hopkins alumnus and City Councilman for Baltimore City's First District.Additional links/info below…Teachers and Researchers United (TRU-UE) website, Facebook page, Twitter/Xpage, and InstagramMaximillian Alvarez, The Real News Network, "Now or never: Grad Student-Workers at Johns Hopkins Mobilize Ahead of Union Election"Maximillian Alvarez, The Real News Network, "These Workers Are Making Baltimore a Union Town Again"Maximillian Alvarez, The Real News Network, "Johns Hopkins University Graduate Students Are Organizing for a Living Wage"Ryan Quinn, Inside Higher Ed, "Johns Hopkins Grad Students Successfully Unionize"Permanent links below...Leave us a voicemail and we might play it on the show!Labor Radio / Podcast Network website, Facebook page, and Twitter pageIn These Times website, Facebook page, and Twitter pageThe Real News Network website, YouTube channel, podcast feeds, Facebookpage, and Twitter pageFeatured Music...Jules Taylor, "Working People" Theme SongJules Taylor, "John L.

Some 34% of available housing stock in the US is rented by tenants, who number over 114 million people. Among tenants, more than 40% pay over 35% of their monthly income towards rent alone. As wages stagnate and rents rise, the fight against landlords, evictions, and developers becomes more urgent to the class struggle day by day. The Real News speaks with Esteban Girón from the Crown Heights Tenants Union on the housing crisis roiling America and how tenants can fight back.Studio / Post-Production: David HebdenHelp us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer:Donate: https://therealnews.com/donate-podSign up for our newsletter: https://therealnews.com/newsletter-podLike us on Facebook: https://facebook.com/therealnewsFollow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/therealnews
Baltimore has become what many consider to be ground zero in the emerging “solidarity economy” and the formation of worker-owned, cooperatively run businesses. There's something important going on here, and there's a lot that we can all learn from our fellow workers who are in the cooperative space—people who are living, breathing proof that there's another way to run a business, that there's another way to run our economy, and that there are other ways we can treat work and workers. At a recent event hosted by the Baltimore Museum of Industry titled "Work Matters: Building a Worker-Owned Co-op," Max moderated a panel including workers and representatives from Common Ground Bakery Café, Taharka Bros Ice Cream, A Few Cool Hardware Stores, and the Baltimore Roundtable for Economic Democracy (BRED). He talked to them about how they came to work at these different co-ops, how their businesses transitioned to more cooperative models, and they dig into the nitty gritty of what working at a co-op looks like, what it takes for workers to democratically run a business, and the real challenges, limitations, and rewards that come with this kind of work. Panelists include: Vince Green (Taharka Bros Ice Cream); David Evans (A Few Cool Hardware Stores); Craig Smith (A Few Cool Hardware Stores); Sierra Allen (Common Ground Bakery Café); Christa Daring (BRED).Additional links/info below…Baltimore Museum of Industry website, Facebook page, and InstagramJaisal Noor, The Real News Network, "Worker Co-ops vs. COVID"Jaisal Noor, The Real News Network, "Taharka Bros: Ice Cream with a Side of Worker Ownership"Working People, "Your Job Doesn't Have to Suck (w/ Jaisal Noor)"Lisa Elaine Held, The Washington Post, "Amid Food-Industry Upheaval, Baltimore Businesses Are Handing Workers the Keys"Rebekah Kirkman, The Real News Network, "After Beloved Baltimore Coffee Shop Abruptly Closed, Workers Reopen as Co-op"Permanent links below...Leave us a voicemail and we might play it on the show!Labor Radio / Podcast Network website, Facebook page, and Twitter pageIn These Times website, Facebook page, and Twitter pageThe Real News Network website, YouTubechannel, podcast feeds, Facebook page, and Twitter pageFeatured Music...Jules Taylor, "Working People" Theme SongJules Taylor, "Working People Live Show" Theme SongJules Taylor, "John L.

The political crisis that has gripped the US over the past decade is the outgrowth of this country's peculiar political history. Just as hard right turn of the 21st century GOP can be traced back to the failures of post-Jim Crow desegregation, so too can the Democrats' failure to uphold any 'left' politics worthy of the name be drawn back to a betrayal of labor decades in the making. Few are as equipped as Rick Perlstein, historian of the post-1980s conservative movement, to place our current conjuncture in the context of the long arc of US history, as he does in his new column The Infernal Triangle: Authoritarian Republicans, Ineffectual Democrats, and a Clueless Media. Perlstein joins The Marc Steiner Show for a discussion on his work and the present political moment as the US enters yet another election year.Studio / Post-Production: David HebdenHelp us continue producing The Marc Steiner Show by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer:Donate: https://therealnews.com/donate-pod-mssSign up for our newsletter: https://therealnews.com/nl-pod-stLike us on Facebook: https://facebook.com/therealdewsFollow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/therealnewd
Last June, the state of Wisconsin placed two correctional institutions in Green Bay and Waupun on lockdown due to concerns about overcrowding and the quality of facilities. In the ensuing months, several other Wisconsin state prisons have been affected by the lockdown, and Gov. Evers has yet to present a clear plan to end it. Meanwhile, thousands of incarcerated people have been trapped in horrendous conditions. Inmates are spending 23 hours a day in their cells, without access to in-person visitation, regular programming, or even daily showers. Mark Rice, coordinator of the Wisconsin Transformational Justice Campaign at the grassroots network, WISDOM, joins Rattling the Bars to discuss the crisis in Wisconsin prisons and the clear solution Evers has ignored so far: to wield his authority as Governor to reduce the state's prison population.Click here for the transcript and full episode page.Studio / Post-Production: Cameron GranadinoHelp us continue producing Rattling the Bars by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer: Donate: https://therealnews.com/donate-pod-rtbSign up for our newsletter: https://therealnews.com/nl-pod-rtbLike us on Facebook: https://facebook.com/therealnewsFollow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/therealnews
After three months of carnage, the US continues to support Israel's genocide in Gaza. While the bombs rain down, tens of thousands are killed, more are seriously injured, and millions are displaced, protests have raged across the country and around the world, with demonstrators calling for an immediate ceasefire, an end to US aid to Israel, and an end to Israel's occupation of Palestine. Building on the previous, record-breaking March on Washington for Palestine last November, dozens of organizations held a second march on Saturday, Jan. 13, with tens of thousands converging on Freedom Plaza in downtown Washington, DC (organizers estimate the number of people who attended over the course of the day is in the hundreds of thousands). Reporting on the ground once again, TRNN Editor-in-Chief Maximillian Alvarez returns to DC to speak with demonstrators at the March on Washington for Gaza. This podcast also includes clips from Palestinian-Americans who spoke at the rally, courtesy of BreakThroughNews. Watch the full livestream of the rally. Speakers include: Mazin Badr; Xana; Yasmeen El-Agha; Colleta Macy; Iysha Macy; Adam Abosherieah; Dr. Alaa Hussein Ali; Faisal Saleh; Randa Muhtaseb; Willow Defreitas Kick; Abed Ajrami.Studio Production: Maximillian AlvarezPost-Production: Alina NehlichHelp us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer:Donate: https://therealnews.com/donate-podSign up for our newsletter: https://therealnews.com/newsletter-podLike us on Facebook: https://facebook.com/therealnewsFollow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/therealnews
Editor's note: We had some technical difficulties and lost significant portions of this episode, one of which Nick re-recorded afterward. Apologies for the at times disjointed conversation TRN Podcast co-host Nick Estes (@nickwestes) is joined by TRN comrades Uahikea Maile (@uahikea) and Leanne Betasamosake Simpson to discuss the shared solidarities between Native people in Palestine and Turtle Island and the public letter signed by over 132 Native activists, artists, and intellectuals in solidarity with Palestine. "As Indigenous peoples, we condemn the increase in anti-Palestinian, anti-Islamic, and anti-Arab violence everywhere. We condemn the increase in anti-Indigenous violence everywhere. We condemn anti-Jewish violence everywhere. We condemn punishing workers, students, artists, politicians, and academics for supporting Palestinian liberation. We recognize that Zionism is a form of racism and a colonial ideology that does not represent the views of all Jewish people throughout the world."
