🏥 Before You See the Doctor
How AI helps you research symptoms, prepare smart questions, and understand medical information!
⚠️ Important: AI is NOT a doctor and cannot diagnose you. Use it to prepare better questions and understand information — then see a real healthcare professional.

for [how long]. It’s located [where on body]. It feels like [sharp/dull/burning/etc.]. It gets [better/worse] when [activity/time of day]. Help me describe this clearly for a doctor, and suggest what questions I should ask at my appointment.” label=”💬 Try This with AI” style=”primary”]
“My doctor told me I have [condition]. Explain in simple language: what this condition is, what typically causes it, how it’s treated, and what lifestyle changes might help.”
. I don’t really understand what this means. Can you explain in simple everyday language: what this condition is, what typically causes it, how it’s usually treated, and what lifestyle changes might help?” label=”💬 Try This with AI” style=”primary”]
“I received medical paperwork I’m having trouble understanding. Here’s what it says: [paste text]. Can you explain what this means and what I need to do in plain English?”
. Can you explain what this means and what I need to do in plain English?” label=”💬 Try This with AI” style=”primary”]
“I have a doctor’s appointment about [health concern]. Help me prepare — what info should I bring, what should I tell the doctor, and what are the 5 most important questions I should ask?”
. Help me prepare. What information should I bring? What should I tell the doctor? And what are the 5 most important questions I should ask during my visit?” label=”💬 Try This with AI” style=”primary”]
🧠 Quick Quiz: What Would You Do?
Q1: You’ve had morning headaches for 2 weeks and you’re seeing the doctor. What do you tell AI first?
⭐ Key Takeaways
1️⃣ Use AI before appointments — Describe symptoms clearly and build your question list.
2️⃣ Use AI after appointments — Paste discharge instructions and ask for a plain-English explanation.
3️⃣ Never replace your doctor — AI is a preparation tool, not a diagnostic one.
4️⃣ You deserve to understand your health — Being an informed patient always helps.
🚀 Your Challenge
Before your next doctor visit, open ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini and ask: “I have an appointment about [health concern]. What are the 5 most important questions I should ask my doctor?”

First U.S. Asian Community
The first Filipino community in the United States found its home in the bayous and marshes outside New Orleans, Louisiana. The earliest settlement known was founded around 1765. These Filipino pioneers thought that the swamps of New Orleans gave them safe haven from the Spaniards. They became known as the Manila Men who lived in stilt houses built above the water. Over generations, the Manila Men developed a thriving fishing and shrimping trade, supplying seafood to the city of New Orleans. Their settlements, known as "Filipino Villages," represented the first permanent Asian settlement in North America. The community maintained strong ties to Filipino culture while also integrating into the unique Creole culture of Louisiana. Their legacy is a powerful reminder of the deep and often overlooked contributions of Asian Americans to the founding fabric of the United States.
Will the Blue Wave Be Bigger Than 2018?
<div><div> <p>JD Vance begs voters to give the White House "another chance" as a series of new polls show a political environment even more favorable to Democrats than the one that propelled the blue wave in 2018. </p><p>Jon, Dan, and Alex break down how much "hopium" we should be huffing, a new ad from a Florida Republican breaking with Trump on immigration, and whether unexpectedly close Senate races in Minnesota and New Hampshire should have Democrats worried. They dive into JD Vance's advice to AI companies to simply stop "building Frankenstein" and unpack Trump's fixation on demolishing the Kennedy Center if he's not allowed to name it after himself. </p><p>Alex talks about her new book, "The Steal: Four Right-Wing Hard-Liners, One Republican Presidency, and the Raid on America's Courts," which follows the conservative movement's deliberate takeover of the American judicial system. Then, Dan Osborn, the independent candidate for Senate in Nebraska, stops by the studio to talk to Jon about his campaign against Pete Ricketts.</p><p><strong>Hate listening to ads? </strong>Become a Friends of the Pod subscriber for ad-free episodes of Pod Save America, Pod Save the World, Lovett or Leave It, Runaway Country, Offline with Jon Favreau, and more—plus exclusive content, including bonus episodes of Pod Save America.

Home improvement stores feel the pinch
<div><p>Retail sales jumped 1.2% in August after falling in July. But building materials stores — think Home Depot or Lowe’s — still saw a dip. That’s because stretched consumers are putting off “nice-to-haves,” like home renovations. Also in this episode: The future of global energy demand will be driven by a mix of renewables and fossil fuels, high school students take a new AP class melding business and personal finance, and neighbors organize to cooperatively buy their mobile home park.</p><br><p><em>Every story has an economic angle.

The Roy Cohn Playbook, from McCarthyism to Trump
<div>In a biography of Roy Cohn, Kai Bird looks at how the lawyer taught President Trump to deny, delay, attack, sue and countersue, never admit defeat, side step paying bills and avoid a paper trail. His book, with co-author Susan Goldmark, is <em>American Scoundrel</em>. He spoke with Terry Gross. <br><br>Also, Ken Tucker reflects on three of Dolly Parton’s performances that he says demonstrate her range and her unique takes on romance and heartbreak.<br><br><br>See <a href="https://pcm.adswizz.com/">pcm.adswizz.com</a> for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.<br><br><a href="https://www.npr.org/about-npr/179878450/privacy-policy">NPR Privacy Policy</a></div>

September 16th, 2026 - Robert Hockett | Mark Hays | Donald Moynihan
<div>We begin with the Fed raising interest rates today by a quarter of a percent with an expectation there will be another increase to 4.1% later this year. Joining us to discuss how this is a response to inflation at 3.7% in July, in part caused by Trump's war on Iran, is Robert Hockett, the Edward Cornell Professor of Law and Finance and a Professor of Public Policy at Cornell University. He has first-hand experience working at the International Monetary Fund and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, and continues to consult for a number of US federal, state and local legislators and regulators. His latest books are Money from Nothing Or, Why We Should Stop Worrying About Debt and Learn to Love the Federal Reserve, Financing the Green New Deal: A Plan of Action and Renewal and most recently, Spread the Fed: Distributed Central Banking for Productive Monetary Policy. Then we look into the Senate's blocking of the crypto-friendly Clarity Act in a rebuke to billionaire crypto bros trying to buy the next election while building unpopular data centers to manufacture crypto which has been a huge boon for criminals and scammers engaged in ransomware attacks etc. Joining us is Mark Hays, the Associate Director for Cryptocurrency and Financial Technology with Americans for Financial Reform and Demand Progress where he works to ensure effective regulatory oversight of cryptocurrency and other financial technologies. Previously, he was the Anti-Money Laundering Campaign Director at Global Witness. Then finally we speak with Donald Moynihan, the Gerald Ford School's J. Ira and Nicki Harris Family Professor of Public Policy at the University of Michigan. Previously he served as Georgetown University's McCourt School of Public Policy Chair of Public Policy and the director of the La Follette School at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He co-directs the Better Government Lab, which looks for technology and other types of interventions to help government improve access to the social safety net and has an article at his Substack, "China Thank Trump: The Big Winner of Trump's Assault on Higher Ed is America's Chief Geopolitical Rival." We discuss how Trump has untethered himself from reality as he destroys America's economy, alliances, health, education, science, environment, soft power, rule of law, diplomacy and now our military. backgroundbriefing.org/donate twitter.com/ianmastersmedia bsky.app/profile/ianmastersmedia.bsky.social linktr.ee/backgroundbriefing</div>

Strong emotional reactions are how misinformation spreads. Ask: "Do I really know this is true? Where did I see this? Who benefits if I believe it?"</p> </div> <div class="roadmap-step"> <div class="step-number">2</div> <h4>🔍 Identify the Claim</h4> <p>Extract the specific factual claim being made. Separate opinion from fact. Example: "The claim is: 'X policy will cause Y result'" (this is factual/testable), NOT "X policy is bad" (this is opinion).</p> </div> <div class="roadmap-step"> <div class="step-number">3</div> <h4>🎭 Classify the Type</h4> <p>Identify what KIND of misinformation it is: False Claim? Misleading (technically true but missing context)? Out of Context? Manipulated (doctored image/quote)? Satire mistaken as real?</p> </div> <div class="roadmap-step"> <div class="step-number">4</div> <h4>🔗 Find Primary Sources</h4> <p>Go to the ORIGINAL SOURCE of the information. Read the full context. Check dates. Verify quotes. Use Google Scholar, government databases, original research papers, not social media summaries.</p> </div> <div class="roadmap-step"> <div class="step-number">5</div> <h4>✅ Check Fact-Checkers</h4> <p>See what established fact-checkers (PolitiFact, FactCheck.org, Snopes, AP Fact Check) have found. If multiple fact-checkers agree, that's strong evidence. Note their reasoning—don't just accept the verdict.</p> </div> <div class="roadmap-step"> <div class="step-number">6</div> <h4>📚 Document Your Evidence</h4> <p>Use the form below to record: what the false claim was, where you found it, what the truth is, and your credible sources. This creates a record you can share and report.</p> </div> <div class="roadmap-step"> <div class="step-number">7</div> <h4>📢 Report & Inform</h4> <p>Report your findings to: government representatives (who can address systemic campaigns), political organizations (who counter false narratives), fact-checkers (who may expand coverage), and media outlets (who may investigate the source). <strong><a href="https://news.qtw-dodropinn.com/report-misinformation-alert/" style="color: #ff0000; text-decoration: underline;">Use our Alert Generator →</a></strong></p> </div> <div style="margin-top: 20px; padding: 15px; background: #1a1a1a; border-left: 4px solid #00ff00; border-radius: 4px;"> <p style="color: #00cc00; margin: 0; font-size: 0.9rem;"> 💡 <strong>Key Insight:</strong> You are not trying to convince people who believe the false claim.

Who created this content?</h4> <p style="color: #00cc00;">Is there a clear author? Organization? What's their track record? Do they have a political or financial motive?</p> </div> <div style="background: #1a1a1a; border: 1px solid #00cc00; padding: 15px; border-radius: 4px;"> <h4 style="color: #00ff00;">2. What evidence is presented?</h4> <p style="color: #00cc00;">Are there specific sources, data, quotes? Or just claims? Can you verify the evidence independently?</p> </div> <div style="background: #1a1a1a; border: 1px solid #00cc00; padding: 15px; border-radius: 4px;"> <h4 style="color: #00ff00;">3.

Why is this emotion-triggering?</h4> <p style="color: #00cc00;">Misinformation often triggers anger, fear, or outrage. Why? Is that emotion justified by the evidence, or is it manipulative?</p> </div> <div style="background: #1a1a1a; border: 1px solid #00cc00; padding: 15px; border-radius: 4px;"> <h4 style="color: #00ff00;">6.

Have I seen opposing evidence?</h4> <p style="color: #00cc00;">Have I actively looked for sources that DISAGREE?

All Media is Mar-a-Lago Face: The Beauty of Authoritarianism - TEASER
<div><p>We need to talk about the "creator economy" and the stylish influencers pushing disinformation and misinformation directly into our feeds. The more glossy you are, the more attention you get–and attention is the new currency. That is the same ethos of the princess-haired women swanning around Mar-a-Lago. It's a deliberate dumbing down of society. When gloss replaces the time-intensive grind of investigative journalism, the autocrats and oligarchs who push this strategy distract and confuse us, and ensure important voices who can't win a Sephora Hunger Games get shut out. </p> <p>In this week's bonus show, Gaslit Nation also covers the chilling expansion of America's police state, focusing on the horrifying conditions at the Delaney detention center in New Jersey. Inmates are on hunger strike to demand basic human rights, mirroring the brutal history of political prisoners under Stalin's regime. We must raise our voices, pressure our elected officials (like Governor Mikie Sherrill), and refuse to look away.</p> <p>Do not let the Mar-a-Lago face creator economy and the attention-hungry gatekeepers confuse and wear you down. Stay grounded in your moral force and amplify the truth.</p> <p>Listen to the full episode on Patreon and support our independent journalism. Shape the show and raise your voice at the Gaslit Nation Salon Monday at 4 PM Eastern. Look out for exciting announcements this coming Monday with a special sneak peak exclusively for our Patreon supporters. Can't make it?

First U.S. Asian Community
The first Filipino community in the United States found its home in the bayous and marshes outside New Orleans, Louisiana. The earliest settlement known was founded around 1765. These Filipino pioneers thought that the swamps of New Orleans gave them safe haven from the Spaniards. They became known as the Manila Men who lived in stilt houses built above the water. Over generations, the Manila Men developed a thriving fishing and shrimping trade, supplying seafood to the city of New Orleans. Their settlements, known as "Filipino Villages," represented the first permanent Asian settlement in North America. The community maintained strong ties to Filipino culture while also integrating into the unique Creole culture of Louisiana. Their legacy is a powerful reminder of the deep and often overlooked contributions of Asian Americans to the founding fabric of the United States.
