30. Why Every Psychiatrist Should Be Proficient in Therapy with Dr. David Puder
In this episode, host and podcast chair Sam sits down with Dr. David Puder, outpatient psychiatrist, psychotherapist, and creator of the Psychiatry and Psychotherapy podcast to make the case that therapeutic skills aren't optional for psychiatrists — they're essential.
Dr. Puder traces his unlikely path into psychiatry, from nearly pursuing orthopedics to a pivotal stint in Haiti that rewired his priorities, and describes the residency mentor who first showed him the power of a single empathic encounter. From there, the conversation opens up into a wide-ranging exploration of what holistic care really looks like when you stop splitting "biology" from "psychology" and start treating the whole person, including a live exercise in recognizing and working with countertransference, practical advice on personal therapy, and how attachment patterns shape both your patients and your own clinical reactions.

29: Bridging the Brain and Behavior with Dr. Jonathan Silver
In this episode, host Jasmine Heidary sits down with Dr. Jonathan Silver, an internationally recognized leader in neuropsychiatry and a pioneer in the study and treatment of traumatic brain injury (TBI). A clinical professor of psychiatry at NYU Grossman School of Medicine, Dr. Silver has spent decades advancing our understanding of how brain injury affects behavior and mental health — shaping clinical programs at Columbia University, Lenox Hill Hospital, and NYU, and contributing to foundational textbooks and national treatment guidelines in the field.
Fresh off receiving the 2026 Gary J. Tucker, MD Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Neuropsychiatric Association, Dr. Silver joins us to explore the evolving field of neuropsychiatry, his path into the specialty, and what decades of work at the intersection of neurology and psychiatry have taught him about the brain, behavior, and healing.
*Clarification at 25:36: Mild traumatic brain injury is characterized by amnesia lasting less than 24 hours and loss of consciousness lasting less than 30 minutes.

28. Passing the Mic #2 - Isaac Segura
In this special episode, outgoing host Isaac Secura takes a seat on the other side of the mic as incoming host Jasmine Hader interviews him about his unconventional path to medicine. Isaac shares what drew him to psychiatry as "applied philosophy," how seven years of teaching, running a business, and doing international service work shaped the clinician he's becoming, and what it felt like to match into a child and adolescent psychiatry residency at the University of Utah — with a baby on the way. He also reflects on his time leading the Get Psyched podcast, the guests who left a lasting impression, and why he believes learning should always stay playful. A warm, candid handoff between two hosts.
