225. Remove the Interference- Prayer, Placebo and the Science of Healing w/ Dr. Ben Rall

Author: Roger K. McFillin, Psy.D., ABPP April 2, 2026 Duration: 1:53:04

What happens when cutting-edge science and ancient faith point to the same truth?

In this deeply personal and spiritually charged conversation, Dr. Roger McFillin welcomes back Dr. Ben Rall — chiropractor, author, and devoted follower of Christ — for what may be their most meaningful conversation yet. Released on Holy Thursday, this episode sits at the intersection of peer-reviewed research and transcendent faith, asking questions that our modern medical system was never designed to answer. What is actually happening inside the healing encounter? How much does the practitioner matter? And what does science now tell us about the power of belief, prayer, and human connection on biological outcomes? 


Hosted by board-certified psychologist Dr. Roger McFillin, the Radically Genuine Podcast is a direct challenge to the superficial and often ineffective narratives that dominate discussions about wellness. This isn't about quick fixes or polite self-help tropes. Instead, Dr. McFillin engages in substantive, sometimes uncomfortable dialogues that dissect how cultural trends, the fitness industry, and the mental health system itself can sometimes hinder genuine healing. You'll hear from a compelling range of voices-including survivors of adversity, clinical experts, and independent thinkers-all united by a commitment to raw truth over feel-good fiction. The conversations within this podcast deliberately avoid easy answers, focusing instead on the complex, gritty work of building authentic resilience and psychological strength. It’s for anyone who suspects that mainstream advice has failed to address the root causes of personal and societal struggle, offering a deeper, more nuanced examination of human behavior and recovery. By confronting controversial topics and institutional failings without flinching, each episode aims to provide listeners with a more honest framework for navigating life's inevitable challenges, making it a distinctly valuable voice in the health and society podcast landscape.
