February 13, 2025 The Booze Paradox: Why Temperance Cultures Have The WORST Alcohol Problems
Is alcohol inherently harmful, or is the way we talk about it the real problem?
In this episode, Dr. Stanton Peele and Zach Rhoads tackle the cultural contradictions around alcohol consumption.
They break down why countries that drink more tend to have fewer alcohol-related harms, why "NO SAFE LEVEL" messaging is misleading, and how a temperance mindset might actually INCREASE problem drinking.

They also explore how harm reduction isn't about numbers -- it's about life.

Tune in for a no-nonsense discussion that challenges mainstream narratives on addiction, public health, and the way we view substances.

An alarming statistic from the NIH: 17% of 12-17 year olds in the united states is mentally unwell.

Zach and Dr. Peele drill deeper.

October 07, 2023 REBROADCAST: Re-Writing Your Life Story
This is a playback of a 2018 episode of the LPP Podcast in which we discuss the following:
The Life Process Program takes clients through a staged review of their life stories, focusing first on mistakes, continuing to how they might have acted differently to avoid these pitfalls, to re-conceiving their life stories to focus on positives, and finally to projecting their life stories forward into positive, life-fulfilling narratives.
In today’s episode we incorporate LPP exercises and examples of Zach’s work with children, including sample maps he develops for each child, to show how to put these steps into action in your own life and the lives of your children and other loved ones.
Similarly, examples of coaching feedback to LPP clients (disguised, of course, like Zach’s plans with children) will be presented throughout to illustrate advice in implementing each stage of the re-writing of people’s narratives.

October 06, 2023 This Man Studied the Lives of CENTENARIANS, What He Discovered May SHOCK You | Mario Martinez | LPP
Dr. Mario Martinez is a neuropsychologist who lectures worldwide on how cultural beliefs affect health and longevity. He is also the author of The Mind Body Code --- which you can check out on amazon here: https://www.amazon.com/MindBody-Code-Beliefs-Longevity-Success/dp/1622037618
Importantly, Mario studies culture and belief systems, and how they affect longevity and well-being. (As opposed to a more conventional belief -- that genes pull the strings of our ultimate fate.)
Zach explicates themes from Dr. Martinez's work, including his study of centenarians (people who live 100 years and longer); biocognitive science (a field which he founded); and the many ways that culture - and cultural beliefs - affect our health.

July 12, 2023 Talking Your CHILD Through ADDICTION, Collaborative Problem Solving THAT WORKS!
Zach Rhoads follows Dr. Peele's previous 5 "Ted Talks" -- 10 minute talks about addiction, natural recovery, harm reduction, and commonsense strategies for overcoming addiction. In his latest talk, Peele also laid out a "helping professional's" Bill of Rights, which instructs the following be present in helping individuals achieve a greater sense of well-being:
(1) refuting idea that addiction is permanent inescapable disease
(2) enabling people to realize valuable lives
(3) encouraging responsibility
(4) empathy tolerance
(5) support community
In this segment, Zach re-visits those concepts and helps parents / concerned loved ones think about how they may open a collaborative dialogue with a child experiencing addiction, without sounding preachy or judgmental, and while preserving own boundaries and expectations.

July 08, 2023 Most People Outgrow ADDICTION - 10 Minutes on How YOU Can Help
Rat Park and Vietnam tell us two crucial things about addiction and recovery. They first show that recovery is a natural process when the organism returns to a normally rewarding and supportive environment. Even more importantly — certainly not the rats, but the human beings in Vietnam were never conditioned to think of themselves as “addicts.”
Thus their identities were never trapped, which is the hardest thing to overcome.

March 19, 2023 Psychologist Responds to Judson Brewer's Ted Talk | What is Addiction? How Can You Beat It?
Dr. Stanton Peele Delivers His OWN Ted Talk (From home), in response to Judson Brewer's talk, "A Simple Way to Break a Bad Habit" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-moW9jvvMr4
Summary:
Have you noticed confusion, conflict and disastrous failures across the board around drugs and addiction?
We at Life Process Program have (unfortunately) understood the hole we’ve been digging for ourselves for years. To dig ourselves out, we have to comprehend addiction, understand that it’s not some chemical side effect of drugs, and then apply this understanding to our personal lives and national policies.
