Near-death experiences have long challenged our understanding of consciousness and mortality. Some who come close to death report leaving their bodies, encountering vivid visions, or feeling profound peace. Are these experiences evidence that consciousness can survive death — or can they be explained by what happens in a dying brain? This 2014 debate is one we're still thinking about today. We ask whether science can reveal what, if anything, awaits us after we die.  Arguing Yes: Eben Alexander, Former Neurosurgeon; Author of "Proof of Heaven"  Raymond Moody, Medical Doctor; Author of "Life After Life"  Arguing No:  Sean Carroll, Physicist & Writer  Steven Novella, Academic Neurologist at the Yale School of Medicine  Emmy award-winning journalist John Donvan moderates    Join the conversation on Substack—share your perspective on this episode and subscribe to our weekly newsletter for curated insights from our debaters, moderators, and staff.  Follow us on YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn, X, Facebook, and TikTok to stay connected with our mission and ongoing debates.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Join us with as we dive into two challenging cases of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) in this episode featuring Dr. Amer Zeidan, from the Yale School of Medicine. The discussion focused on real-life scenarios from community settings, exploring treatment decisions in both frontline settings and cases of disease progression. In the first case, we examined a 74-year-old gentleman with persistent anemia and discussed the implications of his diagnosis, treatment options like erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) and luspatercept, and the importance of timely intervention. The conversation highlighted the evolving landscape of MDS treatment, including the significance of molecular risk stratification and the potential for improved patient outcomes. The second case featured a 67-year-old woman whose disease has progressed despite initial treatment with luspatercept. Dr. Zeidan shared insights on the next steps, including the use of hypomethylating agents (HMAs) , the role of transplant, and the management of side effects associated with these therapies. Tune in for an informative discussion that not only addressed treatment strategies but also emphasized the importance of patient-centered care and the need for ongoing monitoring and support.

Dr. Ted Lain welcomes Dr. Mona Shariari — Associate Clinical Professor of Dermatology at Yale School of Medicine, Associate Director of Clinical Trials at Central Connecticut Dermatology, and host of the Medical Sisterhood Podcast — for a deep dive into one of dermatology's most persistent challenges: polypharmacy and topical confusion.Ted and Mona look back at the old-school regimens dermatologists used to write out — one topical for the face, another for the body, different products for weekdays versus weekends — and how that complexity set patients up for poor adherence and side effects like skin thinning and hypopigmentation from steroid overuse. They discuss why once-daily, non-steroidal options like roflumilast cream and foam have changed the equation, allowing head-to-toe use without the body surface area and duration limits that come with topical steroids.Got a question or an idea for a future episode?

In this episode, Dan and Lauren welcome back Dr. Nyasha M. GuramatunhuCooper, founder of Girton Road Leadership Learning & Consulting. Nyasha's path into the discipline ran through a doctoral program at Gonzaga where she found room to ask bigger questions. One of those questions came from a student at Kennesaw State early in her career, who asked why they should be learning about leadership in African countries. In that conversation, her home region of Southern Africa had been positioned as a consumer of leadership knowledge rather than a producer of it, and unsettling that assumption has been a throughline in her teaching and writing ever since. Resources and works mentioned in this episode include: Girton Road Leadership Learning & Consulting — Nyasha's consulting practice The Accidental Facilitator — Nyasha's workshop on foundational facilitation skills, co-created with a business partner Holding Space — Heidi Brooks' facilitator-development retreat through the Interpersonal and Group Dynamics program at Yale School of Management ILA Leadership Education Academy — Nyasha attended the inaugural LEA in 2015 and has since served on the facilitator team Gladwell, M.

Long-term care is facing a staffing crunch, and it's not just about “more funding”—it's about the workforce pipeline and the real-world conditions that determine whether long-term care jobs can attract and retain enough people. In this episode, we break down what's driving the demand surge, why the supply side is getting tighter over time, and what that means for families, facilities, and access to care. Yale School of Public Health's Andrew Olenski, PhD. explores who's working in long-term care today, how foreign-born caregivers have contributed to meeting needs, and why policy proposals have struggled to match the scale of the problem. We also discuss where technology fits (and where it doesn't), and what to watch next as legislative and funding decisions shape the future of long-term care in the U.S.

Neuroscience reveals revenge can become a powerful habit—and that forgiveness may be one of the most effective ways to break the cycle.Summary: After years of bullying led him to almost committing an act of violence, James Kimmel Jr., an assistant clinical professor at the Yale School of Medicine, set out to understand why revenge can be so compelling—and how forgiveness can interrupt that cycle, easing emotional pain and strengthening self-control. On this episode of The Science of Happiness, we explore what science can teach us about healing ourselves and creating a less violent world.How To Do This Practice:  Think of a Grievance: Bring to mind a person or situation that still causes you hurt or resentment. Notice How It Feels: Take a moment to observe any tension, anger, or pain that arises without judging it. Imagine Forgiveness: Without forcing yourself to forgive, simply imagine what it would feel like to let go of the hurt. Notice the Shift: Pay attention to any sense of relief, ease, or softening—even if it's subtle. Return to the Feeling: When the grievance comes back, revisit that imagined sense of forgiveness as a way of caring for yourself. Practice Often: Repeat this exercise whenever resentment resurfaces, allowing forgiveness to become a habit that supports your own healing.

Today, on Notable Leaders' Radio, I speak with Guest Name, Erin Saxton, Emmy-nominated TV producer and PR and Media expert of The Erin Network. She candidly shares how lifelong self-discovery, resilience, and curiosity have shaped her story, offering practical lessons on valuing yourself and finding purpose through life's challenges. In today's episode, we discuss: Audit the influences in your upbringing. Notice which family members shaped your habits and values, both the qualities you wanted to emulate and those you didn't. Use this pattern recognition to build intentional behaviors in your own life, learning from their successes and missteps so you can consciously choose what to pass on or set aside. Challenge limiting beliefs about self-worth. Recognize where early experiences, like being judged for your appearance, may have shaped your self-image. By bringing these narratives to the surface, you can break free from their grip and learn to value yourself beyond external validation, allowing for greater confidence in all facets of life. Transform challenges into motivation. When faced with setbacks or fears, treat them as personal dares to grow. This mindset reframes difficult experiences into purposeful action, inspiring resilience and driving you to break through barriers rather than remain stuck. Find the angle that makes your story stand out. If you want to get noticed—whether in business or life—don't just follow the crowd. Shift your perspective ever slightly to uncover what makes you unique. This "one degree" of difference is what creates opportunities, gets you seen, and ensures you're not lost in a sea of sameness. Keep moving forward, no matter what. Embrace resilience as a daily mantra: even on tough days, prioritize action over inertia. This practice maintains momentum, builds emotional strength, and models for others that persistence is often the key differentiator in long-term success.   Guest Bio: Erin Saxton is a four-time Emmy-nominated television producer, PR strategist, and founder of eleven Communications, The Erin Network, and Erin on Demand.

In this fascinating conversation, I sit down with painter, teacher, and author Jordan Wolfson to explore painting as a practice of awareness. Jordan describes how, over the years, his sense of self has become more porous and less fixed, allowing him to respond more openly to both life and the creative process.We discuss why some paintings feel profoundly alive while others, though technically accomplished, do not. Jordan shares insights drawn from artists like Cézanne, Monet, and especially Berthe Morisot, whose expressive mark-making helped shape modern painting in ways that history has often overlooked.Along the way, we explore nondual awareness, presence, emotional energy, and why truly meaningful art often emerges when we stop trying to force it. I also share how my own doodling practice, along with a simple moment making toast alone in Santa Fe, taught me that everyday acts can become gateways to presence.Although Jordan and I often use different language, we discovered we were pointing toward much the same experience: creativity not as something we manufacture, but as something we participate in.If you've ever sensed that painting is about more than paint, this conversation is for you.To purchase Jordan's book:https://www.lulu.com/shop/jordan-wolfson/power-and-presence/paperback/product-q6wm9wr.html?q=&page=1&pageSize=4For more information, visit his website https://jordanwolfson.com/Jordan Wolfson received his MFA from the Yale School of Art in 1991. An internationally exhibited painter, his work explores the relationship between perception, mark-making, and consciousness, viewing painting as both a creative practice and a path to deeper understanding. His work is included in collections around the world, and he has received numerous honors, including grants from the Pollock-Krasner Foundation and the Ingram Merrill Foundation."Painting isn't about making a picture; painting is about exploring life."Want to learn more about CJ Miller?

How This Is Building Me, hosted by world-renowned oncologist D. Ross Camidge, MD, PhD, is a podcast focused on the highs and lows, ups and downs of all those involved with cancer, cancer medicine, and cancer science across the full spectrum of life's experiences.In this episode, Dr Camidge sat down with Funda Meric-Bernstam, MD, the department chair and Endowed Nellie B. Connally Chair in Breast Cancer, in the Department of Investigational Cancer Therapeutics, medical director of the Khalifa Institute for Personalized Cancer Therapy, and a professor of breast surgical oncology at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston; as well as a regular member of Cancer Biology at the University of Texas Houston Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences.Drs Camidge and Meric-Bernstam discussed Dr Meric-Bernstam's evolution from a science-focused student into a leader in precision oncology and early-phase drug development. Dr Meric-Bernstam was raised in a hybrid fashion between the US and Turkey, attending a science-focused boarding school before beginning medical school in Turkey and ultimately restarting her medical education at the Yale School of Medicine in New Haven, Connecticut. Drawn to both the immediacy of surgery and the questions of basic science, she pursued a surgical residency with built-in research time, spending 2 years at the National Institute of Health studying translational regulation, an experience she credited with making her fearless in tackling the unfamiliar.In this discussion, Dr Meric-Bernstam offered a candid look at building a career without a clear roadmap. She emphasized that clinician-investigators must work hard, arguing that a meaningful clinical presence sharpens translational research by revealing patients' true unmet needs. Her work spanning cell signaling, mTOR biology, window-of-opportunity trials, and genomic testing led her to direct MD Anderson's personalized cancer therapy efforts and grow its phase 1 program.Beyond administration, Meric-Bernstam reflected on lessons from the lab, including a year of lost data that taught her to scrutinize primary results at every step, and her conviction in patient-derived models and co-clinical trials. Ultimately, Dr Meric-Bernstam described a transformational moment in oncology, where AI, comprehensive profiling, and newly druggable targets will reshape combination therapy. She concluded by reaffirming her mission to improve cancer outcomes, calling it the best job in the world.

In this episode, Merideth Hite Estevez joins me to talk about what happens when a lifetime of chasing excellence quietly empties out the joy that started it all. We dig into the idols hiding inside performance and perfectionism, why she redefines art not as a talent for the gifted few but as something anyone can do out of love, and what it means to create as an act of worship instead of proof of worth.

Photographers Jarod Lew and Reagan Louie join PhotoWork with Sasha Wolf to discuss how they explore cultural identity, personal loss, and trauma through photography. Lew and Louie are Asian American photographers from different generations, and their work reflects how the exploration of cultural identity in contemporary photography has evolved over the decades. While Louie takes a documentary photography approach, Lew works through more conceptual constructs. Their conversation with Wolf highlights the visual differences between their practices while revealing striking resonances in how they discuss their approach. https://www.jarodlew.com https://www.reaganlouie.com Jarod Lew is an artist who draws on photography to explore intergenerational encounters with diasporic loss, displacement, and postmemory. Through this exploration, his work contends with the performativity of race and its instability as a locus of meaning. His project, Please Take Off Your Shoes was shortlisted for the Aperture Portfolio Prize in 2021, and was exhibited in a group exhibition at SFMOMA titled Kinship: Photography and Connection in 2023. His other project, In Between You and Your Shadow, examines his relationship with his mother, who was the fiancé of Vincent Chin--the subject of a hate-crime that brought national attention to matters of Asian American civil rights. In 2025, Lew will mount his first museum exhibition at the University of Michigan Museum of Art titled- Strange You Never Knew.  His works are held in public and private collections including the Cantor Art Center, Detroit Institute of Arts, Kadist, San Francisco, Harvard Art Museum, University of Michigan Museum of Art and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Lew's work has been written about in Aperture, Artforum, Elephant Magazine, and Aesthetica Magazine. Lew graduated with an MFA in photography at the Yale School of Art. Reagan Louie's photography and installations explore global transformation and cultural identity. He is currently at work on several projects that focus on the relationship between home and homeland; including a book about his family's immigration from China to America. And a Virtual Reality experience about his ancestral home, Wing Wor. His work is exhibited at institutions: San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, Museum of Modern Art NY, Philadelphia Art Museum, Fotomuseum Winterthur, Gwangju Biennale. Louie's photographs are in the public collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, Museum of Modern Art NY, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Oakland Museum, Cantor Art Museum. Louie's photographs are widely published. His books have received critical acclaim. The New York Times Book Review named his first book on China, “Toward a Truer Life”, the photography book of the year. He is the recipient of numerous awards - The Guggenheim fellowship, National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship, Lange-Taylor Prize, and Fulbright Fellowship.

Jeffrey Sonnenfeld is a professor of management and senior associate dean for leadership studies at the Yale School of Management. He is also the author, co-author, and editor of a number of books. His works include The Hero's Farewell: What Happens When CEOs Retire, Firing Back: How Great Leaders Rebound After Career Disasters, and, most recently, Trump's Ten Commandments: Strategic Lessons from the Trump Leadership Toolbox with Steven Tian. Greg and Jeff discuss why Jeff thinks leadership scholars and journalists misread Donald Trump. He argues the goal should be not to normalize or judge Trump but to understand Trump's predictable, strategic patterns—often mistaken as impulsive—so they can be countered, and he criticizes the labeling Trump as “stupid” or “crazy” for helping create widespread complacency.  Jeff recounts a contentious 30-year relationship with Donald Trump that began with his Wall Street Journal critiques of “The Apprentice,” and then continued through Trump's attempts to win him over (including with a position at Trump University), and Trump's use of tactics like divide-and-conquer, distraction, the “sleeper effect,” and “wall of sound.” The discussion contrasts personal power versus institutional success,and  stresses collective action as an effective counter. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.* Episode Quotes: The danger of underestimating your opponent 04:11: My take on this, in short, is the most dangerous element of American society, after perhaps Donald Trump and some of his acolytes, are many of his critics because his critics give us a false sense of confidence by, for over 10 years now, calling him stupid and calling him crazy. More recently, he's had a break with reality, a sudden cognitive decline with age, and chortling to themselves in their articles to one another like love letters in Atlantic Magazine or giggling on show after show on MS Now. It's about as dangerous, almost, as what Trump and his immediate followers are doing themselves because it's giving the American public, their viewers and readers, a false sense of security that this is a guy who is veering off the edge of the cliff and about to implode, that we don't need to worry. Don't mistake emotion for impulse 05:14: What Trump does sometimes comes with a lot of emotion-laden packaging, but these aren't impulsive, accidental decisions he's making. These are strategic, decisive, definitive moves that he's making, and that he has a whole arsenal of them. How to counter divide and conquer 50:18: How do you prepare for false information? Be ready to counter it very quickly and to make sure you're not divided by one another and all these other kinds of things. How do you counter false information? How do you avoid divide and conquer? You know, those are the lessons from the book rather than to follow these tactics.

Dr. Gianakos' interest in sports medicine—particularly foot and ankle sports medicine—is the result of a long, personal history with sports. She was an All-American Athlete, former collegiate basketball player, and track and field athlete who had her own share of injuries and orthopaedic surgeries. "My experience taught me the importance of having a physician who was passionate about getting patients back on their feet so they are able to return to sports," she says. "I chose a career where I could help patients in the same way my orthopaedic surgeons helped me." Her approaches include cutting-edge, minimally invasive surgeries, including in-office needle arthroscopy, and a variety of nonsurgical interventions, such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy, stem cell therapy, and fat cell therapy. In addition to her clinical work, Dr. Gianakos is an assistant professor of Orthopaedics & Rehabilitation at Yale School of Medicine. She has collaborated on studies of cartilage regeneration, tendon healing, and bone growth, and has a personal research focus on gender- and sex-related differences in foot and ankle injuries and outcomes.

In addition, she is a PhD candidate at the University of Amsterdam, where her research focuses on gender and sex-related differences in foot and ankle surgery.   

We have just passed the 20 year anniversary of Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth. When he was asked recently by ABC News Chief Meteorologist and Chief Climate Correspondent Ginger Zee whether the film and its predictions on global warming hold up, Gore responded, "Unfortunately, yes." He went on to say, "The scientists were dead right on all the important elements of it and it really is insane that we are continuing to use the sky as an open sewer and we're trapping so much heat every day it's equal to the amount that would be released by 800,000 Hiroshima-class atomic bombs exploding every day on the earth." Earlier this year the Yale School of the Environment published an article titled, Overshoot: The World is Hitting Point of No Return on Climate. They stated: "With warming set to pass the critical 1.5-degree limit, scientists are warning that the world is on course to trigger tipping points that would lead to cascading consequences from the melting of ice sheets to the death of the Amazon rainforest-that could not be reversed." Returning to Crosstalk to discuss the latest response by the U.N. General Assembly to such news was Alex Newman.
