RexDart Update
We have a listener who has been battling terminal bladder cancer since 2011. He’s had to try to continue to work just to keep the lights on despite horrific intractable pain, but hasn’t had a full time job since being laid off in 2012. A few months ago he told me “i’m already $100 away […]
[This one is a rare effect, but if they can just figure out how to trigger it consistently (research is ongoing) this would be a kickass weapon in the war against malignant melanoma and some other cancers. A more general article on the abscopal effect can be found on Wikipedia, but here’s a quickie […]
[Another interesting idea…if you know someone with refractory multiple myeloma, they may qualify for a clinical trial in vaccine therapy (take THAT, anti-vaxxers!) –dr steve] from cnn.com A woman with an incurable cancer is now in remission, thanks, doctors say, to a highly concentrated dose of the measles virus. For 10 years, Stacy Erholtz, 49, battled multiple […]
[I used to say we were 100 years away from a more generalized approach to cancer therapy. In the end, barring some unforeseen breakthrough, cancer “cures” will come from the realm of immunology.

Eat Fiber and Die – 1987
Ok, I recorded this in my little bedroom studio in 1987 with a Korg DSS-1 sampling synthesizer. I was an idiot. There was overwhelming response to this being played on my show (none of it positive, mind you) so I thought I’d post it here for your non-enjoyment. Drive your significant other crazy with it, […]
Recipe: Cheesy No Grain Breadsticks
I’m going to create a new category of NSNG recipes as I find and test them. I tried this one SuperBowl Sunday and even my kids thought it was pretty good. It ends up with a soft, bread-y interior, with a crisp outside crust (made of cheese). Dip it in marinara or eat it […]
Much has been made of a study on female ejaculation in the media and on Twitter and Reddit lately. The media and the blogosphere have been rife with headlines like: “Scientists Say Female ‘Squirting’ is Just Peeing!” Unfortunately, once again the bloggers and medical media got it wrong. Read the original study: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25545022 This study suffers […]
Recipe: NSNG Smoothies
People have emailed me, asking me for my smoothie “recipes” from the last podcast. I really don’t have any; I mostly improvise like a jazz musician using the following “chord chart” (yecch): First Principles: 1) Spinach is basically tasteless raw (Kale is vile to me, but some people like it) 2) Almond milk is better […]
Help Some People at the Holidays
Well, it’s that time of year and we have a couple of people we can help if you have an extra $1, $5, $10, or more! First: Our pal RexDart has been taking chemotherapy, but his fixed income makes traveling to MD Anderson AND keeping the lights on at home difficult. He also pays child […]
