Podcasts about Misinformation

December 2025 This is the fifth instalment of our annual episode where we celebrate the oncoming festivities of the snowy season - religious or secular - with a surfeit not of turkey and roasties but of questions! Questions sent in by our listeners, gifted to us through the medium of social media. A selection of these holiday treats, where we bust myths and reveal hidden histories, has been made by Team Podcast who are all present and correct for this episode. Who are Team Podcast? Erica Munro (Head of Content), Dr David Kenyon (Research Historian), Dr Thomas Cheetham (Research Officer) and podcast producer Mark Cotton. We have six of our listeners' finest questions to share with you - we will do five of these as a usual Q&A, but look out for the sixth question - relating to pets - as we intersperse our interview with simian Siginters' sidekicks, and canine Codebreakers' companions.

Mary welcomes back Creationist Russ Miller to talk about the season of time we are in, which altogether looks like an end game in so many ways. Sometimes we think that the world remained somewhat static in culture and innovation until the 1800s, at which time there was an explosion of change in the 20th century. That’s not wrong, because the pace and scale of global transformation has accelerated in dramatic fashion, particularly with the Industrial and Scientific Revolutions. We also think in the church that evolution is the only thing we can think of that has continually warred against a biblical worldview. But the explosion of philosophies and religious movements have also played a huge role.  We talk briefly about what those movements were and are, and then zero in on evolution in particular as the bearer of the most rotten fruit we can imagine over several categories: education, morals, socialism and Marxism, and science probably above all.  An hour of dot-connecting with a highly knowledgeable creation apologist whose many Grand Staircase tours, conference sessions and church and college messages have helped to educate and build up the Christian church about the lies of old earth/evolutionary theory.

“People are not looking for a perfect, polished answer. They're looking for a human to speak to them like a human,” says Jessica Malaty Rivera, an infectious disease epidemiologist and one of the most trusted science communicators in the U.S. to emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic. That philosophy explains her relatable, judgement-free approach to communications which aims to make science more human, more accessible and less institutional. In this wide-ranging Raise the Line discussion, host Lindsey Smith taps Rivera's expertise on how to elevate science understanding, build public trust, and equip people to recognize disinformation. She is also keen to help people understand the nuances of misinformation -- which she is careful to define – and the emotional drivers behind it in order to contain the “infodemics” that complicate battling epidemics and other public health threats. It's a thoughtful call to educate the general public about the science of information as well as the science behind medicine. Tune in for Rivera's take on the promise and peril of AI-generated content, why clinicians should see communication as part of their professional responsibility, and how to prepare children to navigate an increasingly complex information ecosystem.Mentioned in this episode:de Beaumont Foundation If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Rick Davis, patient advocate and Founder of AnCan, is building and operating virtual peer-to-peer support groups to allow patients to connect with others who have direct experience with their condition.  These groups can provide accurate information, foster connections among participants, and serve as a check on medical misinformation. With the growing acceptance of virtual meetings, this approach overcomes geographic, physical, and psychosocial barriers that might otherwise prevent participants from attending on-site meetings. Rick explains, "The mission is to make each person and each patient a better advocate for themselves. That's really what we try to do, and we do that through empowering patients with peer knowledge. We introduce patients to other peers who have been through what these people are facing right now, not only patients, but also their care partners, and through their experience, we hope that these patients and care partners will become more expert in managing their own situation."   "In 2007, when I was first diagnosed with stage three cancer, I attended a physical meeting, and I realized that so many people cannot attend physical meetings because one, they may have a geographical disability, they may have a physical disability, or they may have a psychosocial disability. If we only allow people to exchange views when they're physically in front of each other, it's very limiting. And so I started to look and see what existed in terms of virtual communication. And back in the day, there was very, very little. And that was the motivation that got me started."  "People come into a group, and they hear things that they just wouldn't hear otherwise. And that's why it's so valuable. It's so incredibly valuable. I mean, we had a group last night where a guy came in facing a situation, and by total coincidence, there was somebody from his own city in there who knew the docs that he'd been dealing with, understood the frustration he'd been going through, had been through it himself, and shared his experience. Well, you can't buy that."   #AnCan #AnCanSupport #VirtualSupport #CancerSupport #PeerSupport #PatientAdvocay #DigitalHealth ancan.org Download the transcript here

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared takes on a fear-based narrative that has been circulating widely in the natural health space—claims that supplements are “toxic,” “fake,” or made from alarming industrial sources. Using vitamin D3 and vitamin K2 as the focal point, Jared breaks down where tiny fragments of truth have been exaggerated into misleading conclusions, and why that kind of half-truth can be more dangerous than an outright lie.

Misinformation may be plentiful, but public trust in Canada’s food system remains strong—among those who are actually talking about it. The challenge?

In this episode of It Takes Balls, urologist and men's health expert Dr. Justin Dubin joins the show to dismantle some of the most common myths and misunderstandings surrounding testicular cancer, testosterone, and talks about the explosion of misinformation online. Dr. Dubin breaks down topics like pregnancy tests for testicular cancer, marijuana use and cancer risk, vaping, prosthetics, and why early detection still remains the best predictor of simpler treatment and better outcomes. His clear explanations offer the kind of guidance young men desperately need but often don't receive from social media or general online searches.Dr. Dubin also dives deep into the stigma around men's health - especially when it comes to testicles and hormone concerns. He talks openly about why men suffer in silence, how misinformation spreads faster than facts, and what men should actually do when they find a lump, feel pain, or notice changes in their libido or energy. From covering “testosterone boosters” to encouraging men to advocate for their own care, Dr. Dubin brings a practical, compassionate, and no-nonsense approach to topics that are often overlooked or misunderstood.Whether you're navigating a testicular cancer diagnosis, questioning your testosterone levels, or simply trying to make sense of what you see on TikTok and YouTube, this conversation equips you with science-backed information and reminds you why talking about men's health openly can literally save lives.Have a question for a future expert guest?

I've been working on my relationship with my phone, on and off, for years. Sometimes, I use it as a tool. Sometimes, it feels like it's using me as a tool. Genuine + deeply rooted ad fatigue, traumatic events sprung upon me, most content is some form of engagement/rage/anxiety/fear bait, brain rot + ai slop, trolls + bot accounts. Misinformation + disinformation campaigns financed by literal government entities. It's disheartening to feel like I am the tool being used, and I think I am finally ready to confront this toxic relationship.

In last week's episode, Advisory Board experts explored why leaders have a responsibility to combat rising patient distrust. The challenge? Most providers aren't prepared — and often haven't been taught — how to respond effectively. Distrust isn't just about debunking misinformation. The combination of low-quality research and panic headlines has made it harder for both providers and patients to separate credible science from misinformation. But there are actionable strategies leaders can use to identify what fuels mistrust and effectively communicate with patients in ways that build confidence. This week, host Rachel (Rae) Woods sits down with Dr. Emily Oster — economist, Brown University professor, New York Times bestselling author, and Founder & CEO of ParentData — to unpack her approach to effective health communication. Throughout the episode, they unpack why scientific skepticism is growing and why the delivery of health information — not just expertise — is critical to engaging patients. We're here to help: Ep. 277: Patient distrust is costing you. Here's how to rebuild it. ParentData by Emily Oster ParentData is a data-driven guide through pregnancy, parenthood, and beyond.

Find More Great Info From Dr. Melanie Matheu Here: SUBSTACK: https://lilscience.substack.com TIKTOK:https://www.tiktok.com/@laughterinlight YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@LaughterInLight Hawk talks with immunologist Dr. Melanie Matthew about the upcoming flu season and the devastating impact of RFK Jr as HHS Secretary. Australia experienced record-setting influenza deaths this year, with flu killing more people than COVID. The H3N2 variant mutated to evade vaccine protection, leading to unprecedented hospitalizations. Japan declared a flu epidemic five weeks early, and similar patterns are emerging in the United States.Dr. Matthew explains why flu vaccination remains critical despite mutations, reducing hospitalizations by 30-40% in adults and 70-75% in children. The conversation shifts to RFK Jr's anti-vaccine policies at HHS, where he claims no vaccine is safe and effective despite having zero background in immunology or pediatrics. His appointment, along with Marty Makary at FDA and Jay Bhattacharya at NIH, represents a complete rejection of scientific reality in favor of political ideology.The discussion covers RFK Jr's role in 88 child deaths in Samoa from measles, his vitamin A recommendations causing liver damage in Texas children, and how VAERS data is being misrepresented. Dr. Matthew details the exodus of top scientists from NIH, cancelled research grants, and terminated clinical trials that will kill patients. Forever chemicals (PFAS) are being approved for pesticides while vaccine research funding gets slashed.America faces losing measles elimination status, rising preventable disease deaths, and compromised pandemic preparedness. The CDC's COVID vaccine guidance for pregnant women has been offline for months despite evidence linking infection to preterm births and neurological damage. This administration prioritizes grift over public health, with consequences spanning decades.
