What Do Tear Gas and ICE Raids Do to People?

Federal agents have descended on Minneapolis in the U.S., and things have gotten chaotic — and deadly. The Trump administration says the agents are there to enforce immigration law, but officers have shot three people so far, killing two, and are using tear gas and smoke on protesters. So today, we’re looking at the potential health impacts of tear gas. We’ll talk about what we do — and don’t — know about potential long-term effects of this stuff. And we’re also looking into research on the mental health effects of immigration raids. We speak to Dr. Jennifer Brown, Dr. Carlee Toddes, and Dr. William Lopez. This episode does mention mental health issues. Find resources here: spotify.com/resources For more on William Lopez’s research on ICE raids, check out his new book, Raiding the Heartland https://www.press.jhu.edu/books/title/53706/raiding-heartland?srsltid=AfmBOoperKoqv48ZYzaHfQ87nM2xI3QiAbI7lo2wLqt5BykNo-47cHxS Find our transcript here: https://bit.ly/3MbC1Py Transcripción en español: https://bit.ly/4cm5b9i In this episode, we cover: (00:00) What’s going on in Minneapolis? (05:40) Tear gas is banned in war (08:34) What tear gas does to the body (16:44) The possible long-term effects of tear gas (22:44) Can you protect yourself from tear gas? (24:36) How immigration raids affect people’s health (34:10) Do ICE raids make communities safer?

632 - RUFUS RICE - Sh*ggers Society, Partying With Love Islanders, & The ULTIMATE Posh Test!

We sit down with TikTok sensation, rockstar and comedic enigma Rufus Rice and, even after spending time with him, we’re still not entirely sure if he’s playing a character or simply so posh that he confuses us… Rufus gives insight into how rich he and his family really are. He shares stories from his early years in Singapore - from the secrets of a strict boarding school to what happened when he got drunk underage in a country where minor lawbreakers are punished with actual whippings. Rufus addresses the Tory allegations, and we give him the ultimate Posh Test to decide where he sits on a scale from Max Fosh to the King of England. We also test his knowledge of common council estate things. Has he ever had a Lambrini? Does he know how to play Dog’s Arse? Would he ever set foot in a Euroshopper? Plus, the time a game of Ding Dong Ditch REALLY backfired, his most controversial opinion involving charity, and whether we’re ever going to see him in a Sidemen charity match.

The U.S. just made a big change to its vaccine recommendations, cutting back on the number of shots it will routinely recommend for kids.

Find our transcript here: https://bit.ly/ScienceVsVaccineSchedules In this episode, we cover: (00:00) The growing turmoil around vaccines in the U.S. (02:20) Why did the CDC change its vaccine recommendations?
