I've dealt with depression in my life. My body temperature also seems to run hot; in fact my wife Kate has nicknamed me "the baked potato." My guest today says that there may be a connection between those two things. His name is Charles Raison, he's a psychiatrist, professor of psychiatry, and the co-author of The New Mind-Body Science of Depression. We begin our conversation with why Charles thinks it's important to ask the question, "Does Major Depression even exist?" and what we do and don't know about what causes depression. We then turn to the emerging theory that physical inflammation may play a role in depression; Charles describes what inflammation is, and why the body may become inflamed and physically hotter not only in response to physical illness, but psychological stress as well. We then discuss the paradoxical finding that short-term exposure to inflammation in the form of exercise or sitting in a sauna can reduce long-term inflammation, and how hot you probably have to get in a sauna for it to have antidepressant effects. We also talk about how intermittent fasting may have a beneficial effect on inflammation, before turning to whether taking anti-inflammatory drugs could also help, and why you might want to get a blood test to see if your body's inflamed. We end our conversation with Charles' thoughts on how to figure out the right treatment for depression for each individual. Get the show notes at aom.is/inflammationdepression....moreCopy Link

It was a pretty crazy weekend of weather in Ireland, and yet somehow some hurling went ahead. Wexford/Kilkenny was the pick of the bunch, and we talk to Michael Duignan about what Davy can take from Wexford winning a battle like this against the former market leaders in that area. And Irish rugby international Eimear Considine is in studio to talk to us about the Tackle Your Feelings app, aimed at teenagers to try and promote mental wellness. She talks to us about facing down the England juggernaut this weekend, losing wunderkind Beibhinn Parsons to her leaving cert commitments, trading the GAA for rugby, and confronting personal tragedy as a teenager. Plus there's hurling goalkeepers and their Tom Crean impersonations, playing with the storm in the first half, and the politics of calling a game off....moreCopy Link

Der Westen wurde lange als das Rückgrat der Weltordnung wahrgenommen. Das ist vorbei. Nicht erst seit Donald Trump mit "America First“ auf Abstand ging, haben sich die Kräfteverhältnisse verschoben. Die Gemeinschaft liberaler Demokratien bröckelt. Man ist sich nicht mehr einig über die gemeinsamen Werte. Was heißt das für Europa? Frankreichs Präsident Emmanuel Macron will mit den anderen EU-Staaten seit geraumer Zeit in einen "strategischen Dialog" darüber treten, wie sich Europa gegen neue Gefahren verteidigen will. Eine gemeinsame EU-Verteidigungspolitik gibt es bisher nicht. Will der Westen die Weltpolitik weiter mitgestalten, wird es höchste Zeit, neue Allianzen zu schmieden - auch auf der Münchner Sicherheitskonferenz. Für Deutschland ist es an der Zeit, sich klarer zu positionieren in der EU, in der Nato und in einer neuen Weltordnung....moreCopy Link

I was speaking at a conference about 2 years ago when I met a woman who was telling me about this software she built. She told me it was Instagram Management software that allows her customers to edit their grid and plan posts. But get this: she does all the support through Instagram DM. I had never heard of that. Christy Laurence is the founder of Plann which is an Instagram Management Suite. I want to find out how she coded this app when she’s not a developer.

These days it can be overwhelming to figure out exactly what terms like "self-care" and "wellness" actually mean. Do self-care and health have to align? Has the wellness industry gotten completely out of hand? What are Adam and Danielle's thoughts about incorporating self-care into their everyday lives? What "wellness" products has Danielle bought over the years that Adam has thought were completely ridiculous? This is definitely not your average conversation on these topics, and their opinions probably would not parallel those of most doctors and therapists who discuss forms of self-care and wellness, but it is definitely an honest take on the subject. As confusing as these subjects are, Adam and Danielle are just trying to make sense of it all as regular people who want to live their best life without getting sucked in to the trends and fads that oftentimes sway people into believing there's a "magical" solution to so many of our problems.
