46,000 - That's the number of Americans who die every year from gun violence. More than double that number are shot but survive. Fred Guttenberg knows the toll of that devastation more than most: his daughter Jaime was murdered in the Parkland, FL mass shooting at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School. He joins us to talk about President Biden's new effort to close the background check loophole, the effect of racist and extremist politicians on gun violence, and more.

Kai Cheng Thom on Falling Back in Love with Being Human
The world is full of hate. Alyssa certainly sees a lot of it sent her way online—but people who hold less privilege see so much more. That hate, always present around us, has taken some of the joy out of being human. Our guest this week is trying to fix that. Kai Cheng Thom is the author of several books, including the newly released “Falling Back in Love with Being Human: Letters to Lost Souls.”

Protecting Children and our Future with Senator Richard Blumenthal
Our guest this week is Senator Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut.

He's also been able to work across the aisle on critical initiatives in this incredibly polarized time, because he believes being effective is more important than being partisan.

Dr. Dave Rabin on tackling stigmas and activating mental health treatments
One of the things Alyssa has been very open about is her mental health. We have stigmas in our culture which not only affect those who struggle with mental health conditions, but also new and exciting treatments for those conditions, like psychotropics and wearable technology. Dr. Dave Rabin helps people face these stigmas. He is a board-certified psychiatrist, neuroscientist, entrepreneur, and inventor who has studied resilience and the impact of chronic stress on our lives for over 15 years. Dr. Rabin and his team collaborate with clients at the Apollo Clinic, empowering clients to take control of their mental and physical health by tapping into our abilities to adapt and heal ourselves.

Customer Reviews
Informative and well produced
I dare the 1 star reviewers to actually listen to the show. Alyssa is smart, well spoken and understands the issues.
Thank you
I have admired Alyssa for her acting abilities for many years. I am beyond admiration for her ability to speak out for equality and justice. She says political statements that I mostly only just think. I hate campaigning with a passion but know we can no longer be silent. Recently I was ask to consider canvassing door to door in our upcoming elections. I have done that and it’s not my favorite thing to do. That’s putting it nicely. Listening to these podcasts even though I don’t want to do it I will. I look forward to hearing more podcasts. Keep on being you. I read the critical ratings it made me remember when I was working the polls under a tent. I thanked everyone for voting whatever they voted for. I didn’t run out to cars and chase people down to give my candidate info like some do. What I did was stand at my tent and when someone walked by if they ask or wanted I gave out info. I did yell out thanks for voting to everyone that past by. I was called a communist at which I responded no I am a democrat. Hang in there.
Sorry not Sorry
This was a terrific teaching moment. The newly released impending decision of the Supreme Court written by Justice Clarence Thomas is totally based on the right to privacy. Which you so apply stated twice.
Thank you for this, it will make my journey supporting women's equal rights a bit easier to explain educate and support.
