We're Out of Time

Why are so many people struggling with anxiety, even when they're successful? And how are artificial intelligence, social pressures, and uncertainty about the future affecting our mental health?

Psychiatrist Dr. Michael Dulchin joins Richard Taite on We're Out of Time to explore the challenges shaping mental health today and why achievement doesn't always lead to happiness or fulfillment.

With more than 30 years of experience in psychiatry, Dr. Dulchin is co-founder of Union Square Practice in New York City and previously served as director of inpatient psychiatry at NYU Medical Center.

In this wide-ranging conversation, Dr. Dulchin discusses anxiety, depression, emotional resilience, and the importance of understanding ourselves. He also shares his perspective on adult ADHD and over-diagnosis, the influence of AI and social media, addiction and the opioid crisis, and how relationships and community contribute to emotional well-being.

Richard and Dr. Dulchin also explore the pressure to succeed, the difference between achievement and fulfillment, and the psychological techniques that help athletes and high performers navigate stress.

NFL great DeSean Jackson and his older brother Byron Jackson join host Richard Taite to share the powerful family story behind the new Prime Video documentary "Go Deep: The DeSean Jackson Story."

From growing up under the enormous expectations of their father, Bill Jackson, to DeSean's 15-season NFL career and his new chapter as head football coach at Delaware State, the brothers open up about ambition, pressure, family, loss and finding purpose beyond football.

Byron explains why he spent decades filming his younger brother, the painful family moments he struggled to include in the documentary, and why he put the footage in a director's hands. DeSean joins from Delaware State to reflect on the Heisman hopes that slipped away, the lessons he's carrying into coaching, and why he's creating a space where his players feel comfortable asking for help.

Why are so many boys growing up anxious, isolated and disconnected—and are we waiting too long to ask what went wrong?

Richard Taite sits down with Dr. Michael Gurian, who has spent decades studying how boys develop, learn and become men, for a candid conversation about what parents, schools, therapists and culture may be getting wrong about boys.

Gurian breaks down his brain-based approach to raising and educating boys, including why traditional talk therapy may not connect with some males, why fathers and male mentors matter, and how movement and side-by-side conversation can sometimes help boys open up in ways face-to-face questioning doesn't.

Richard and Dr. Gurian also tackle smartphones and social media, male isolation, discipline versus self-regulation, anxiety and depression, the relationship between childhood trauma and later addiction, and what parents can do before a struggling boy becomes a struggling young man.

Gurian shares his “three-family system” for raising boys and one simple piece of advice for parents: cut through the noise, understand the child in front of you, identify his gifts and challenges, and “nurture the nature.”

It’s a provocative conversation about boys, mental health and what it takes to help young men grow into connected, resilient adults.

A mistrial. A national conversation. And two doctors ready to explain what postpartum psychosis actually is.

This week, host Richard Taite sits down with two experts from Carrara Treatment Wellness & Spa: psychologist Dr. Blair Steele and Dr. Kenneth Spielvogel, who spent nearly 30 years as an OB-GYN, before moving into addiction medicine, about what postpartum psychosis really looks like, how it differs from postpartum depression, and the warning signs families and providers need to know before a crisis hits.

They cover the "perfect storm" of hormones, sleep deprivation, and underlying conditions; what command hallucinations and sundowning actually are; why home visits for new mothers nearly disappeared from the healthcare system; and what it would take to catch this earlier.

A clinical, honest conversation about a gap in maternal mental health care.
