Patrick O'Malley: "Getting Grief Right"
Patrick O'Malley is a grief counselor with more than 35 years of experience. He has written many well-regarded articles on grieving, including the namesake New York Times article that inspired his new Sounds True book Getting Grief Right: Finding Your Story of Love in the Sorrow of Loss. In this episode of Insights at the Edge, Tami Simon and Patrick discuss his unique approach to grief and how it diverts from the popularly accepted five-stage model created by Elizabeth Kübler-Ross. Patrick asserts that the Kübler-Ross model, while helpful as a foundation, can actually create an emotional cage for people as they struggle to find the acceptance and closure that they expect to end their grieving. Tami and Patrick also talk about the odd way in which the concept "closure" became entwined with grief therapy and why sharing our stories of loss can be the most important step in the process. Finally, Patrick shares his own story of loss and explains that the simple act of being compassionately heard can be the most important step toward healing.

Megan Devine: The Howl at the Center of Grief
Megan Devine is a mental health counselor who has become known as one of the most promising emerging voices in the field of grief therapy. With Sounds True, she has released the new book It's OK That You're Not OK: Meeting Grief and Loss in a Culture That Doesn't Understand. In this episode of Insights at the Edge, Tami speaks with Megan about It's OK That You're Not OK and the tragedy that inspired the book-the accidental drowning of her partner. With this in mind, Tami and Megan discuss "the wild howl at the center of grief," the challenge of shouldering things that only we can carry, and why "letting go" is a myth. They also talk about what you can do for someone enduring the grieving process and why it can be best simply to lend an understanding ear. Finally, Megan unravels the concept of "fixing" grief and why there is an intrinsic connection between grieving fully and loving well. From Sounds True 'Insights at the Edge' series.

Dave Emory, "For the Record #980 Nazism, Anti-Gay Propaganda and Reproductive Rights"
With the Trump administration moving against gay rights and reproductive rights, and with the public attention largely focused on yet another mass murder in Las Vegas, we delve back into the archives for the benefit of newer and younger listeners.
On 2/28/1988, we recorded Miscellaneous Archive Show M13: Gay Rights, Reproductive Rights and the Third Reich, highlighting how the nascent, vigorous gay rights movement in Weimar Germany was a focal point for Nazi propaganda and political action.
Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld was the lynchpin of the strong gay liberation movement in Weimar Germany and, as a result, was a focal point of Nazi Party propaganda, fueled with the additional fodder of the fact that Hirschfeld was Jewish.
(We note, in passing, that the gay rights movement in Weimar Germany received considerable support from a segment of the country's feminist community grouped around Dr. Helena Stoecker.)
Historically, German attitudes toward homosexuality were mixed, with some regions manifesting a relatively liberal attitude and enforcement posture and others, an extremely reactionary position in both respects. Paragraph 175 was the official German statute making sex between adults of the same gender illegal. Again, the enforcement of Paragraph 175 was highly selective from a regional standpoint.)
In a manner directly foreshadowing U.S. right-wing propaganda in recent decades, the Nazi Party denounced Hirschfeld and homophile sexual activity as a product of, and a contributor to, the moral decay of the Weimar Republic and democracy in general.
Beginning with review of the suppression of gay rights groups and advocates in the immediate aftermath of Hitler's ascension, the program notes how the Nazi tactic of tarring their political opponents with the taint of "homosexuality" developed into a political/legal gambit of specifically targeting specific individuals within the Nazi party and German armed forces...
The latter part of the program relates how both homosexuality and abortion were ideologically and propagandistically conceptualized by the Nazis as twin opponents of the successful breeding of suitable numbers of young German men to fight the country's wars-a theme that U.S. right wingers have borrowed to argue against gay and abortion rights in this country.

The Ralph Nader Radio Hour
"The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump"
Ralph spends the whole hour with Dr. Bandy X. Lee, psychiatrist from the Yale School of Medicine and editor of "The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 27 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a Presiden
Dr. Bandy Lee is a forensic psychiatrist on the faculty of Yale School of Medicine, who is an expert on violence. Dr. Lee has served as Director of Research for the Center for the Study of Violence and has consulted with governments to set up violence prevention programs both in the U.S. and internationally. She has also been teaching students studying to be public defenders and to become asylum attorneys at Yale Law School since 2003. Today, we're going to talk to her about the recent book she edited "The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 27 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President."
"I think the first remedy we have to do urgently is to remove him from the presidency. It is a very pathology inducing, disease spreading situation, apart from the dangers of a nuclear holocaust or devastating wars, which are actually very real possibilities - by the way - for someone who is so divorced from reality and so attracted to violence as a solution for the way he feels inside." - Dr. Bandy Lee

Dr. Helen Caldicott: "North Korea, Donald Trump and the Threat of Nuclear War"
November 14, 2017
Helen Caldicott is an Australian physician author, and anti nuclear activist. She led campaigns against nuclear power and nuclear weapons, nuclear testing and radiation from uranium weapons and mining to nuclear waste.
The International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War invited Dr. Helen Caldicott to speak at their September 2017 conference in Basel, Switzerland. At that conference she expressed her grave concern about Donald Trump's extraordinary messages against North Korea, threatening fire and fury and total annihilation.
And she is not alone with her concern. As I am recording this introduction on November 14, 2017, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee is holding a public hearing on President Trump's unlimited authority to deploy nuclear weapons. It's the first time the Senate has examined the nuclear launch process in more than 40 years.
In August of this year listeners to NPR asked if Donald Trump can just launch nuclear weapons via the nuclear code that he has access to at all times. Here is a quote from the answer by Senior News Analyst Cokie Roberts. (Thanks to NPR - the clip aired on August 8, 2017.)
And thanks to The International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War for the audio recording of this talk, made on September 14, 2017, in Basel, Switzerland. From TUC Radio, 1 (707) 463-2654, http://www.tucradio.org
