Dr. Zorba and Karl look at new research linking social media use to lower cognitive performance in preteens. Zorba helps a caller with breathing and sleep issues, helps a listener with sinusitis, and talks about black crust pizza and jet lag after a trip to India. Zorba talks about the importance of self care, illuminates us on when babies develop sight and start seeing in color, and we check in with our favorite ultra-processed snack cake buddy, Little Debbie!
