Unqualified, Unchecked, & Unwell
Have you ever looked at someone and thought "man, how did they get that job, they are SO unqualified!". How about an entire administration? This week we deep dive into the unqualified individuals that are leading the health decision making in the United States, touching on Dr. Oz and his daytime Emmy awards, RFK (of course), and Casey Means, among others. When the fringe becomes the focus, we all become a little more unwell!

Join us for our inaugural episode to learn just how bad it can get!

Rodents, Respirators, and a Really Bad Cruise (Hantavirus)
Welcome to our inadvertent inaugural episode! Our public health podcast is all about combatting misinformation, making jokes, and creating a mildly chaotic safe space, so there seemed like no better time (or disease) to start than the recent outbreak of Hantavirus. Join us as we talk all things rodents, our favorite cruise ship hacks, and Gene Hackman. We hope by the end we will have alleviated some concerns, and spread some truth! Please note: This podcast was recorded on May 5th, as the situation was evolving. It has since been confirmed as the Andes strain of Hantavirus, which is known to occasionally transmit from person to person.
