  • Dr. Jonathan Cherry: CTE - Repeated Head Injuries
    2026/10/06

    CTE isn't just an NFL story, and a diagnosed concussion isn't the only warning sign. Dr. Jonathan Cherry explains how years of repetitive impacts may quietly change the brain, and why researchers are racing to find a way to detect it during life.

    In this episode, Therese Markow and Dr. Jonathan Cherry discuss his research into understanding how repetitive head injuries cause progressive brain changes and their work to learn how to detect the disease during life. They break down the difference between CTE and concussions, explain who is more likely to get CTE, and explain the links between CTE and other cognitive diseases.

    Key Takeaways:

    • While it's only been talked about for the last 20 years or so, the first research on CTE was done in the 1920s on boxers.

    • There is currently no way to diagnose CTE in life. TES is being used as a way to diagnose people in life with symptoms of CTE, but at this time, CTE can only be diagnosed after death.

    • While contact sports are one of the biggest contributors to CTE, it is not the only way to get it. CTE has also been seen in the brains of those afflicted by domestic violence and those in the military.

    "CTE is from a history of repetitive head injury, and a concussion is essentially the damage as a result of one injury." — Dr. Jonathan Cherry

  • Dr. Alice Marwick: The Manosphere, Feminism, Misandry, Misogyny
    2026/10/13
    What starts as advice on fitness, dating, or success can lead young men into a world of grievance and reshape how they see women, masculinity, and themselves. Dr. Alice Marwick unpacks how the manosphere works, why it's growing, and the real-world harm it can cause. In this episode, Therese Markow and Dr. Alice Marwick examine the manosphere's origins, business models, influence on young men, and links to misogyny, harassment, and extremist movements. They discuss what the manosphere is, how it appears in different environments, and the social impact of these manosphere influencers. As men's rights movements are often a stepping stone to more extreme movements, this is a topic that should matter to all. Key Takeaways: Manosphere is a slang term that describes a loose network of blogs, forums, podcasts, and creators, and is built around men's grievances. Increasingly, they're built around self-improvement and hustle culture, as well as dating strategy, but what unites them is an opposition to modern feminism. Manosphere influencers are going to places and communities where there are a lot of young men and are actively trying to get audiences from those groups. While some are only there for the fitness or self-improvement, some do get persuaded by the more extreme political arguments. The self-obsession with how you look on camera has always existed, but was primarily seen around celebrities and public figures; with so much of your life on social media, the standards for what is a "normal" or "attractive" person have skyrocketed. Gender roles can be upheld by anybody. Within any peer group, you're going to have some sort of person or role where there is a reinforcement of what that person should be doing. "We are in an economically depressed time period, and we're in a time in America where a lot of people are very exhausted and frustrated and angry. And women and feminism is an explanation and a scapegoat." — Dr. Alice Marwick Episode References: Down Girl: The Logic of Misogyny by Kate Manne: https://www.katemanne.net/down-girl.html Louis Theroux: Inside the Manosphere: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt39792948/ Drinking male tears: language, the manosphere, and networked harassment Connect with Dr. Alice Marwick: Professional Bio: https://datasociety.net/team/alice-e-marwick/ Website: https://tiara.org/ Website: https://datasociety.net/ Books: https://tiara.org/publications/books/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alice-marwick-7304341 Google Scholar: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=lf-BS3IAAAAJ&hl=en Drinking Male Tears: https://tiara.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Marwick_Caplan_Drinking-male-tears-language-the-manosphere-and-networked-harassment.pdf Networked harassment: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/20563051211021378 Media Manipulation & Disinformation Online: https://datasociety.net/research-library/media-manipulation-and-disinformation-online/ White supremacist "redpilling" (open access): https://ijoc.org/index.php/ijoc/article/view/21934 Connect with Therese: Website: www.criticallyspeaking.net Bluesky: @CriticallySpeaking.bsky.social Instagram: @criticallyspeakingpodcast Email: theresemarkow@criticallyspeaking.net Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

  • Dr. Cheryl Rosenfeld: Placentas - How They Affect Later Adult Health
    2026/09/29

    Things you do or are exposed to early in life, including during fetal development, can actually affect your health later in adulthood. Normally, we're unaware of it, and it's difficult to make the connection. Today, Dr. Cheryl Rosenfeld dives into some of the research regarding placentas and their key implications in every life.

    In this episode, Therese Markow and Dr. Cheryl Rosenfeld discuss how prenatal exposures can alter placental function, fetal brain development, and later-life health, with varying effects based on fetal sex. They expose the dangers of BPA and substitutes such as BPS, the importance of the neurotransmitters created by the placenta to the developing fetal brain, and the surprising results Dr. Rosenfeld has found in her research into maternal probiotic supplementation.

    Key Takeaways:

    • The placenta is an endocrine organ. There are sex differences in the placenta between male and female fetuses.

    • The placenta provides neurotransmitters, such as dopamine and serotonin, to the brain. If there's not enough serotonin, that could compromise early brain development and make a child unfortunately vulnerable to diseases later in life.

    • While many people try to avoid BPA, we are all impacted by it or by one of its substitutes. In a side-by-side study shot with BPA and BPS (a common substitute), it was found that both of them have equally harmful effects on the placenta.

    "Essentially, all the fetal organs depend on that placenta. So if you affect the function of the placenta, it will affect the vital processing of all the other fetal organs." — Dr. Cheryl Rosenfeld
