• Dr.K Explains Tylenol and Autism

  Dr. K unpacks the growing debate around acetaminophen (Tylenol) and its possible link to autism while cutting through the noise of headlines, political statements, and online panic. He explains what the data actually shows, why correlation doesn’t equal causation, and how confounding variables like maternal illness, age, and chronic conditions can completely change how we interpret these studies. Using his background as both a psychiatrist and medical researcher, Dr. K breaks down what autism really is—a neurodevelopmental spectrum shaped by thousands of subtle genetic and environmental factors. He dives into how modern healthcare has unintentionally increased autism diagnoses through both better detection and the survival of high-risk births. The episode also examines the role of SSRIs, infections, and chronic illness in influencing risk, and why oversimplifying the problem could lead to worse outcomes. Topics include: What autism actually is and why it’s a spectrum, not a single disorder Why autism rates are rising with better diagnosis vs. real risk factors The Tylenol connection: what studies really say about acetaminophen use in pregnancy Confounding variables: how illness and infection skew the data The role of maternal/paternal age, chronic illness, and environmental exposure SSRIs, pregnancy, and how risk statistics are often misunderstood Why demonizing one factor (like Tylenol) can cause more harm than good This episode offers a calm, science-based perspective on a heated topic reminding us that complex conditions like autism rarely have a single cause, and that real understanding requires nuance, not fear.

• Dr.K Reacts To Collargate

  Dr. K takes a grounded, psychological look at “Collargate,” the viral controversy surrounding Hasan Piker and his dog. Rather than judging individuals, he unpacks what the internet’s reaction reveals about collective psychology, why outrage spreads, how mentalization fails, and how online radicalization erodes empathy. The episode becomes less about one streamer and more about the state of digital discourse itself. Dr. K explores the neuroscience of emotional triggers, the human obsession with novelty and hypocrisy, and how resentment and projection fuel mob dynamics online. Topics include: Why internet outrage cycles (like “Collargate”) dominate attention and emotion How emotional reactivity overrides critical thinking and creates echo chambers The concept of mentalization—understanding others’ motives before judging How failure of dialogue and empathy drives polarization and radicalization The neuroscience of memes, emotional engagement, and belief formation Projection, resentment, and the need to “see justice” when power feels unaccountable The dangers of black-and-white thinking, selection bias, and narrative fixation Dr. K’s reflections on empathy, dialogue, and how creators can respond to public backlash This episode blends cultural commentary with deep psychological insight which turns a Twitch controversy into a lesson on human cognition, empathy, and the modern attention economy.
