  • How to Make a Difference: Part 1

    2 days ago

    How to Make a Difference: Part 1

    Why do some people act on the possibilities before them, while others come to believe that nothing they do will make a difference? Psychologist Martin Seligman describes his groundbreaking research on learned helplessness, and explains how the stories we tell ourselves about setbacks can shape what we do next. We also explore how optimism can help us rediscover our ability to change things for the better. If you have a question or comment about the science of optimism and pessimism that you'd be willing to share with the Hidden Brain audience after listening to this episode, please find a quiet room and record a voice memo on your phone. Email the file to us at feedback@hiddenbrain.org. Use the subject line: “How to Make a Difference.”  If you love Hidden Brain in audio, check out our video series on YouTube. You'll find episodes there about memory, focus, getting unstuck, and much more at youtube.com/@hiddenbrain.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    Why the Nazis Feared Australian Soldiers More Than Americans or British Troops 🇦🇺⚔️ | Boring History for Sleep

    During World War II, Australian soldiers developed a formidable reputation among German forces. Fighting across harsh battlefields from North Africa to Europe, they were often described as tough, determined, and difficult to intimidate. But why did Australian troops earn such a distinctive reputation? What made the Australian fighting style so different? Why did German soldiers view them as particularly dangerous opponents? And how did the experiences of Australian troops in some of the war’s toughest campaigns shape their reputation? A calm journey through the battles, battlefield culture, reputation, and wartime experiences that made Australian soldiers such a memorable force during World War II. Boring History for Sleep — Soft stories about the people and battles that shaped the past.

  • Retest GDM Late 3rd Tri for LGA or Poly? (OCT 2026 Data)

    Retest GDM Late 3rd Tri for LGA or Poly? (OCT 2026 Data)

    Picture this common, late-gestation conundrum: You’re reviewing a 34-week sono. The mid-pregnancy 24-to-28-week glucose screen was completely normal. But now, the sonogram pops up with an estimated fetal weight of over 90%, or maybe a MVP (or AFI) that’s overtly elevated. The classic clinical dilemma hits: Do you order a repeat OGTT this late in the game? Is it actually worth poking the patient again, or are you just chasing shadows? Well, we now have new meta-analytic data. Today, we are reviewing fresh, high-yield data hot off the press from the American Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology (OCT 2026). We’re breaking down this systematic review evaluating late-onset GDM- looking at precisely who may yield a positive diagnosis on a repeat third-trimester test, why LGA and polyhydramnios are not created equal when deciding to re-screen, and what these late numbers mean for neonatal hypoglycemia and cesarean delivery rates. AND, although these insights are helpful- some questions remain. Let’s jump in! 1.
