The Truth About Headaches: Surprising Science & Groundbreaking Treatments | Tom Zeller Jr.

Until 2018, we had no medications specifically designed to prevent migraines or cluster headaches - a startling fact given that headaches affect billions worldwide.

In this revealing conversation, former New York Times journalist Tom Zeller Jr., author of The Headache: The Science of a Most Confounding Affliction—and a Search for Relief, weaves together cutting-edge neuroscience, cultural history, and his personal battle with cluster headaches to explore why this common condition remains so misunderstood and what emerging treatments - from AI prediction to psychedelics - might finally offer real hope.
