Podcast reviews: Busting ADHD myths, using mosquitoes for good and the psychology in our everyday decisions
Neurodiversity is in the news a lot lately, though often for the wrong reasons, with some public figures having dismissed the increased incidence of autism as a 'fad', where others contend that diagnoses have increased due to improved clinical evaluation. As such, podcasts such as Climbing the Walls (Apple, Spotify) are a valuable resource, this new limited investigative series focusing on ADHD in women and girls which is historically misdiagnosed due to presenting very different symptoms to men and boys – who have been widely presumed as the default in trials and treatment. It's hosted by health and science journalist Danielle Elliott who, informed by her own experience of ADHD, talks to experts in the field about why there has been a surge in women and girls being diagnosed, the pros and cons of social media in raising awareness, and the impact of fluctuating hormones on symptoms. Alisha Wainwright, after studying botany in Florida, moved to Panama for her PhD research. 'Science is one of the toughest industries because everyone is vying for the same pot of money to fund their research,' she told W magazine. 'I had a very weird anthropological-botanical focus, and I couldn't find anyone to give me the money to study it. I had to shift my focus to something a little broader, and I wasn't as interested in it.' And so she swapped botany for... acting, starring in TV series Shadowhunters and Raising Dion. She gets to indulge her twin passions in Wellcome: When Science Finds a Way (Apple, Spotify; which uncovers the stories of how scientists and communities across the globe are tackling urgent health challenges, such as how infesting mosquitoes with a naturally occurring bacterium could prevent transmission of the Zika virus and dengue and yellow fever, and how the indigenous practise of 'cultural burning' may be key to controlling modern wildfires. How do we break habits we know are bad for us but we just can't stop? Why are we obsessed with scaring ourselves with true crime podcasts? Why do we own pets? Could there actually be anything to astrology? These are among the questions asked on Everything's Psychology (Apple, Spotify; with Paul Davies, who shines a light on the secrets of the brain that rule our everyday lives, including how corporate groupthink can manipulate our way of thinking and decision-making.
