“Mushroom Moments” and A Dog Rack

The guys discuss how people in Norway can still get the flu from their great ancestors, when a well aged Parmesan cheese can help you sell you 2016 Hyundai Sonata, and why being born around 1303 BC makes having your eyes shut in your passport photo acceptable.

Episode 120: Journalist Katie Engelhart on her book “The Inevitable: Dispatches on the right to die.”

Katie’s story “What Happened in Room 10?” won a George Polk Award for Magazine Reporting in 2021. It is the product of a months-long investigation into the first COVID outbreak in an American nursing home — and, more broadly, the rise of the for-profit nursing home industry.

 

Previously, she worked as a documentary film correspondent and producer at NBC News. She made short documentaries from across the United States and abroad. And she appeared on The Today Show, NBC Nightly News and MSNBC.

 

Before that, she was as a foreign correspondent for VICE News, based in London, and Europe reporter for Maclean’s, Canada’s largest news magazine. She won a Canada National Magazine Award for her coverage of Ukraine’s Euromaidan revolution. 

 

Katie is a graduate student of History and Philosophy at Oxford University, and worked as a researcher for the historian Timothy Garton Ash.

PRO SOBRIETY! – AA Alternative(s) Part 5 – Refuge

How is your recovery program like a chocolate chip cookie? Everyone has their own recipe that they think is best and it all has to do with the ingredients. Will those ingredients include AA, or will they include a different recovery program like Refuge Recovery?

At a table for 3 in the coffee shop talking with Tori, a substance abuse counselor, and her own experiences with Refuge Recovery. Refuge Recovery and the Buddhist path to recovery is all about the path to awakening – awakening being the end of suffering. Craving causes suffering. Addiction causes suffering.

Dive in and listen as Tori talks about Refuge Recovery, how it works, what the guiding principles are, and how it differs from AA.
