Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 2: "Why Can't I Lose Weight?" (Peri)menopause & Weight Management with Dr. Sasha High, MD
Q: Should these medications be used for everyone who wants to lose a few pounds, or only for those with obesity-related health issues?
They should be prescribed for individuals with obesity and related health risks where the benefits outweigh risks, with informed consent, rather than for cosmetic or minimal weight loss goals.
Episode 2: "Why Can't I Lose Weight?" (Peri)menopause & Weight Management with Dr. Sasha High, MD
Q: What are GLP-1 medications and how do they work for obesity and related conditions?
GLP-1 medications are diabetes and obesity drugs that lower glucose in a glucose-dependent way and activate fullness pathways in the brain, reducing appetite and aiding weight loss, especially in people with obesity and related health issues.
Deepfakes, Phones & Tech in Schools, Tracking Kids & More with Jess Grose, NYT Opinion Writer
Q: Can you tell us about your reporting on the three Tennessee teens suing a tech company over deepfake material and what unfolded that led to that lawsuit?
The case centers on minors whose images were used to create deepfake sexual content without their consent, affecting their emotional well-being and daily life. The argument hinges on whether the platform and AI tools used to generate the images bear more responsibility under existing laws like Section 230, and whether tech companies must be more accountable for the way their tools are used by minors.
Deepfakes, Phones & Tech in Schools, Tracking Kids & More with Jess Grose, NYT Opinion Writer
Q: Recently, you posted an article about deep fakes, and you've written a couple of times about deep fakes. Could you break down for listeners exactly what a deep fake is?
A deep fake is an image or video that uses someone's face or voice to depict them doing something they did not do, often sexualized content in school settings, where the most common examples involve boys placing female classmates' faces on sexualized imagery. They can look very realistic and are part of larger concerns about how AI enables manipulation, bullying, and harm.
Episode 4: Kids & ADHD// Practical Strategies for Parents with Mike McLeod
Q: What do you think the DSM criteria get right or wrong for ADHD, and what would you change if you were the author?
The DSM misses the central role of emotions and self-regulation in ADHD; it focuses too much on attention and activity rather than how emotions are managed. In practice, ADHD is a broader, life-quality issue that involves home, school, and social functioning and should be framed around how much these factors negatively impact daily life rather than ticking boxes.
