But why aren’t Republican candidates facing the same question? Donald Trump’s approval ratings are at the lowest of his presidency, and he’s waging an unpopular war. Gas prices remain elevated, and the GOP has nominated a number of scandal-plagued candidates to run in November’s midterm elections. So, do Republicans have their own electability crisis?

Shortly after that, allegations that Arday plagiarized parts of his Ph.D thesis began. Those allegations quickly spiraled into questions about every aspect of his life. After relentless attacks online and in the media, Arday resigned from this position, and a few days later he was found dead, likely taking his own life. Tyler Austin Harper, a staff writer for The Atlantic, spoke to Vox about who is to blame for this tragedy. Is it the institutions that put Arday on a pedestal? Or the racist attacks and accusations of DEI online? Listen to the full episode of Today, Explained wherever you get your podcasts.

But even as the NA lifestyle goes mainstream, the price of nonalcoholic beer and wine can still be a barrier. Turns out, taking the alcohol out isn’t as simple as it sounds—it takes some serious food science and chemistry to make an NA drink actually taste good. We spoke to the co-owner of Burden of Proof NA bottleshop and scientists behind Oddbird Wine to learn more about the future of NA drinks.

US sales of non-alcoholic beer, wine, and spirits have grown over 20 percent year over year, and analysts project that the no-alcohol market will grow by over $4 billion by 2028. With the wine world experiencing one of its biggest downturns in decades, small businesses and food scientists are turning to non-alcoholic wines as a potential alternative. Some are using technology and chemistry to produce premium dealcoholized wines, while others, like Burden of Proof in Los Angeles, are recreating the community feel of wine shops through NA-only storefronts. However, even as consumers turn away from alcohol, many are still shocked by the sticker price of alcohol-free wine. How could something with alcohol removed cost just as much as something with alcohol? The answer is a mix of the high cost of dealcoholizing technology and the price attached to a growing movement.

Pseudoscience often focuses on ideas that are easy to pay attention to: aliens building the pyramids, secret discoveries, and hidden truths being kept from the public. Those claims make better stories than the slower, less dramatic reality of how science usually works.

Yet many of his theories have been critiqued or discredited. So is there anything we can still learn from the father of psychoanalysis? Subscribe to our channel! http://goo.gl/0bsAjO In today’s episode Sean speaks with professor Mark Solms, author of The Only Cure: Freud and the Neuroscience of Mental Healing. Mark argues that while Freud may have been wrong about many things, he was right about one important thing: the human mind cannot be fully understood on purely biological terms. He believes that modern psychiatry has become focused on treating mental suffering like a chemical problem, instead of focusing on emotional and psychological aspects. Sean and Mark discuss the conscious versus the unconscious mind, whether psychoanalysis is the best therapy, and why Freud is still relevant today. 00:00 Intro 03:14 Was Freud a scientist? 09:23 The conscious vs the unconscious mind 16:35 The limits of science 27:34 Is psychoanalysis still the best therapy? 38:28 Why it’s so hard to change our behaviour 46:22 The human element in therapy Host: Sean Illing (@SeanIlling) Guest: Mark Solms, neuropsychologist, psychoanalyst, and professor at the University of Cape Town.
