Podcasts about Surgeon general

Today we discuss MAHA, wearables, health, and Israel. RFK Jr. announced that he hopes that in four years, all Americans will be wearing health tracking devices. What are the implications for individual health? Is hypothesis-driven science being undermined? Will equity be used as a way to force this on people? What should we think of the fact that Casey Means, the nominee to Surgeon General, has a company that incorporates wearables? What does Yuval Noah Harari have to tell us? Does having your data uploaded to the cloud seem like a good idea? There seem to be two very different models of how to MAHA: 1) hone your intuition, trust your senses, and try to create an environment with as little exposure to hyper-novelty as possible; or 2) tech your way out of the problem, and trans-humanize your way to success. Also: Bret introduces Warner the wearables werewolf. Breaking news: Israel and the U.S. appear to have brokered a deal that includes several other countries in the Middle East, and leaves open the possibility of a two-state solution.*****Our sponsors:Brain.fm: intense music that boosts productivity.

Historian and ethicist Nigel Cameron discusses his article, "How DrKoop.com rose and fell: the untold story behind the Surgeon General's startup." The conversation chronicles the dramatic history of the iconic dot-com era company, from its modest beginnings as a personal medical record system to its meteoric rise as the world's top health site. Nigel explains how the company's core strategy was to leverage the unparalleled credibility of former Surgeon General C. Everett Koop, leading to a wildly successful IPO that raised over $84 million. The discussion then details the company's rapid collapse, focusing on the ethical blunders, like blurring the line between advertising and information, that eroded public trust. This episode serves as a cautionary tale about brand credibility, startup hubris, and the ultimate indignity Dr. Koop faced when his name and brand were sold in a fire sale after accumulating over $200 million in losses.

As heard on The Debbie Nigro Show Sometimes it really helps to just talk to other caring people about whatever you're going through. Now there's a place where you can. I had a talk with Scott Kelsey, the incredibly resilient Founder & CEO of Shareapy—about his groundbreaking wellness platform born from personal tragedy and built to foster connection, healing, and personal growth. After a life-altering fall down a staircase left him with a traumatic brain injury, Scott found himself forced to hit pause—and reflect. "I had to isolate, be in a dark room, and let my brain heal," he shared. That isolation led to introspection, which ultimately led to inspiration. Through peer support groups and candid conversations with others who had walked similar paths, Scott experienced something powerful: true connection. And from that connection, the idea for Shareapy was born—a space where people could listen, think, and share openly in facilitator-led virtual gatherings. "Every time I shared my story, I felt calmer… and every time, the other person would say, ‘Hey, sharing my story helped me too,'" Scott said. That mutual exchange of vulnerability and strength became the core of the Shareapy Method. Today, Shareapy supports people from ages 19 to 81 through weekly 60-minute sessions that are safe, confidential, and completely voluntary—you don't even have to talk if you don't want to. Just listening can be transformative. With loneliness now considered the number one public health issue in the U.S., according to the Surgeon General, Shareapy is more than a wellness trend—it's a much-needed movement.

I'm sharing this podcast of my warm conversation with Shareapy Founder Scott Kelsey on The Debbie Nigro Show because I sense more people might benefit from knowing about it.

Welcome to a very special edition of Business of Drinks. In this episode, co-hosts Erica Duecy and Scott Rosenbaum team up with Rabobank's Liquid Assets podcast hosts — VP of Beverage Research Bourcard Nesin and Senior Beverage Analyst Jim Watson — for the first-ever Bev-Alc Debate Club.Today's topic? The question that's haunting boardrooms and bottling lines across the country: What's wrong with the alcohol industry?To unpack it, we went head-to-head in a spirited draft format. Each of us chose what we believe is the biggest force behind Bev-Alc's current decline — and then we debated the heck out of it.What followed was a lively, insightful, and at times contrarian conversation that spanned:

44. When was the last time you felt truly supported at work? Not just managed or directed, but genuinely seen, backed up, and cared for by someone who gets it?If you're drawing a blank, you're not alone. This episode tackles something affecting millions of working parents but rarely gets the attention it deserves: workplace loneliness and isolation.In May 2023, U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy issued a warning that should have shaken us all: America is facing an epidemic of loneliness—and it's a public health crisis affecting our physical health as much as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. Working parents are feeling this most acutely. Especially moms navigating the "motherhood penalty"—expected to be fully committed to our careers while being primary caregivers at home.But here's what I've discovered through nearly a decade of job sharing: We're not meant to do this alone. And with job sharing, we don't have to.In Episode 44, you'll discover: Why workplace loneliness is hitting working parents hardest (and the shocking health impacts) How job share partners become true life partners—not just work coverage Real stories of job sharers supporting each other through family crises and major life challenges Why job share teams weather uncertainty differently than solo workers How genuine partnership at work ripples into every area of your life—parenting, marriage, caregivingThe truth: Job sharing isn't just about splitting tasks or working fewer hours. It's about shared purpose, mutual care, and revolutionary partnership in a world where too many of us are isolated.Your job share partner becomes the person who notices when you're struggling, steps in without being asked, and genuinely wants you to succeed—professionally AND personally.Resources & Links Mentioned:U.S. Surgeon General's Report: Our Epidemic of Loneliness & Isolation, 2023Join our weekly newsletter (biweekly this summer!): workmuse.com/newsletterGrab your FREE Guide to Job Sharing

On May 30, 2025, the FDA sent a letter of approval to the pharmaceutical company Moderna to manufacture and sell its new COVID-19 vaccine.1 But even more dismaying, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., the world's most prominent advocate for vaccine safety, has now gone out on a political limb and committed himself to promoting Moderna's latest version of the mRNA Covid jab.2 In doing so, Kennedy is supporting the continuation of the world's most lethal medical or wartime assault on humanity, one that many see as a bioweapons attack on America by the globalists, including Communist China.   There are more than 38,000 reports of death to date to the CDC and FDA from the COVID-19 vaccines. Nothing like this catastrophe has ever before happened in medicine or public health. In addition, there is a deluge of reports and independent studies verifying the almost infinite harms caused by these mRNA vaccines. These harms include infertility, a declining birth rate, multiple harms to infants and mothers, cardiovascular disorders, including myocarditis in children and strokes in adults, tumors, a wide range of neurological and psychiatric disorders, and Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), which results in greater susceptibility to infections and cancer. But for every reported death and other serious adverse event, we know that there are more than 100 actual deaths or harms. These “vaccines” are killing and maiming millions in America and millions more around the world.3   Here is Kennedy's entire defense of his atrocious actions:     Actually, there is nothing “limited” about the approval letter. The letter specifically empowers Moderna to manufacture and distribute the drug. They will go ahead with this before completing any additional studies supposedly promised to Kennedy, which would take years more. Besides, once a drug company has spent multi-millions getting a drug approved, as they have already done, I've never seen a company actually complete additional studies that could invalidate their drug. Moderna's survival is at stake, and drug companies don't commit economic suicide. And this one has the backing of Bill Gates!   Kennedy has broken many recent promises to get himself into this bizarre situation of betraying his previously voiced ideals. He is approving the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine without so much as a placebo-controlled clinical trial or even a review by the FDA Vaccine Committee. On top of that, pregnant women are not protected as he promised to do. But worst of all, he has never even promised to stop the heavily documented murder of the elderly who are killed by the mRNA covid vaccines at a rate of eight times more than the rest of the population.4   Many of us will remain eternally grateful for RFK, Jr's support for Donald Trump's election campaign. But now he must resign or be removed.   Kennedy's acceptance of the FDA's approval of Moderna's Covid vaccine is more than sufficient reason to fire him. But in addition, he is also grossly undermining the Trump administration and literally threatening the well-being of all our citizens by advocating the use of extremely dangerous neurotoxins, including methylene blue, MDMA or Ecstasy, and psychedelics. Trump's choice for Surgeon General, based on Kennedy's recommendation, is devoted to psychedelics! It's as if  RFK, Jr. has become a toxic mole within the America First movement.   For an in-depth scientific analysis and presentation about everything in this synopsis, please read the full article: RFK, Jr. blatantly supports the mRNA COVID shots and must be forced to resign - Full Article   End Notes:   1 May 30, 2025 Approval Letter – MNEXSPIKE   2 Secretary Kennedy on X: “I want to address those of you who have anxieties about @US_FDA's limited approval of a new mRNA COVID vaccine for high-risk populations. Moderna has agreed to a true placebo-controlled trial of the new vaccine, which is similar to the existing mRNA vaccine but uses a smaller” / X. Actually, there is nothing “limited” about the approval letter. Besides,  once a drug has spent multi-millions getting a drug approved, I've never seen one fulfill a promise to do studies that could invalidate their drug.   Besides, if a study of safety is still needed, it's ridiculous to put off until after it's been approved, by which time many could be harmed.   3 New FDA Plans for the Covid Vaccines Will Kill Millions More   4 New FDA Plans for the Covid Vaccines Will Kill Millions More   ______   Learn more about Dr. Peter Breggin's work: https://breggin.com/   See more from Dr. Breggin's long history of being a reformer in psychiatry: https://breggin.com/Psychiatry-as-an-Instrument-of-Social-and-Political-Control   Psychiatric Drug Withdrawal, the how-to manual @ https://breggin.com/a-guide-for-prescribers-therapists-patients-and-their-families/   Get a copy of Dr. Breggin's latest book: WHO ARE THE “THEY” - THESE GLOBAL PREDATORS?

In this episode of Clearing the Haze, host Chuck Marting dives into the controversial promotion of psilocybin by Trump's Surgeon General nominee. Through real-world incidents and medical research, he highlights the dangers of casual psilocybin use, including cases of psychosis and long-term disorders like HPPD. Marty also examines global trends, regulatory gaps, and the cultural impact of influencers promoting psychedelics without emphasizing the risks. The discussion calls for stricter regulations, public awareness, and accountability to ensure safety in the face of rising psilocybin normalization. 00:00 Introduction and Episode Overview00:06 Trump's Surgeon General Nominee and Psilocybin02:17 The Dangers of Psychedelics: Real-World Incidents04:29 Medical Research and HPPD08:34 Global Perspective on Psilocybin Use10:31 Cultural Influence and Media Narratives13:54 Policy Recommendations and ConclusionJoseph David Emerson, 44—a seasoned aviator with over 20 years of flying under his belt.

Featuring:DR. SHERRY TENPENNY https://drtenpenny.com/In this explosive episode of Steel News, we sit down with Dr. Sherri Tenpenny—author, emergency physician, and one of the most fearless truth-tellers in the medical freedom movement. With over 50,000 hours of documented research, Dr. Tenpenny was among the first to sound the alarm on vaccine injury and systemic corruption inside the public health establishment. From her groundbreaking exposés on the COVID-19 jab's “20 Mechanisms of Injury” to her bold stance against the CDC, FDA, and Big Pharma's legal immunity, Dr. Tenpenny has risked everything to shine a light on the machinery of medical coercion.Her new book, Zero Accountability in a Failed System, is a comprehensive indictment of vaccine policy, public health propaganda, and government betrayal. It uncovers the VAERS-CICP bait-and-switch, exposes fetal tissue and tumor cell lines used in manufacturing, and tracks the disturbing roadmap toward biometric surveillance and digital ID control under the guise of "health." This is more than a health crisis—it's a battle for truth, justice, and bodily sovereignty. Don't miss this conversation that blows the hinges off the doors of institutional deception.few key takeaways she covers in the book:· How the PREP Act gave total legal immunity to pharma, and how CICP quietly blocked compensation for millions of vaccine-injured individuals.· The CDC's media strategy—over 4,000 fear-based messages per flu season—used to engineer compliance.· The shift from public health to full-scale surveillance infrastructure (digital IDs, biometric tracking, and the 2030 agenda).“This isn't about immunity—it's about indoctrination. And the children are the collateral damage.”— Dr. TenpennyWhy it's urgent right now:· Trump's Surgeon General pick, Casey Means, is setting off headlines. No license, no government experience—and deep Big Tech ties. Sherri has strong insight on what this signals.· The renewed measles panic campaign is rolling out hard—echoing 2004's bird flu messaging and COVID-style propaganda. Dr. T explains why that's dangerous.· Mainstream attention on the PREP Act and CICP is finally catching up—the perfect time to get this conversation on the record.Make sure you follow Maverick Broadcasting Network on the following platforms:Pickax: https://pickax.com/maverickbroadcastingRumble: https://rumble.com/c/maverickbroadcasting Substack: https://maverickbroadcasting.substack.comX: https://x.com/mavbroadcastnet Maverick Broadcasting Network benefits when you shop with the following companies:MY GOLD GUY - https://mygoldguy.com/mbnAs inflation surges and global elites toy with our financial future, My Gold Guy empowers you to safeguard your wealth with physical gold and silver – a real asset for real Americans.

There has been a lot of news and some confusion in recent months about the connection between alcohol consumption and cancer risk. In this episode, Dionisia Quiroga, DO, PhD, a James breast cancer specialist, explains the recent findings of the U.S. Surgeon General, what they mean and what people need to know to reduce their cancer risk. “One of the data findings was that most Americans don't know alcohol is a risk factor for cancer development,” Dr. Quiroga said. “It's important people know so they are empowered to make the right decisions for themselves.” Previous research indicated one alcoholic drink per day for women and two for men was a safe level of consumption. “When we look at the new data, it shows that any alcohol consumption can increase the risk,” Dr. Quiroga said. One of the theories about why alcohol consumption increases the cancer risk is that “alcohol in the system breaks down into substances that can cause DNA damage” that leads to cancer. “And alcohol can alter the hormones in the body and most cases of breast cancer are linked to some sort of hormone issue,” Dr. Quiroga said, adding this could also be a factor in prostate cancer risk. “Alcohol use is also tied to other types of cancer where alcohol passes through the body and is processed, such as head and neck cancer, colon cancer, and liver cancer since the liver breaks down alcohol.”

Four years ago, Matthew “Whiz” Buckley crossed the border into Mexico with three fellow veterans and an NFL veteran—each seeking healing through psychedelic-assisted therapy after traditional methods failed to address the invisible wounds of war, trauma, and addiction.What began as a deeply personal journey has now become a national mission through the No Fallen Heroes Foundation. In this powerful episode of The MAX Afterburner Podcast, Whiz reflects on how far the movement has come—and how the past three weeks may represent a historic turning point for veteran mental health care in the United States.Highlights from the episode include:• A public cabinet-level briefing on the role of psychedelics and nonprofits in the future of veteran care• Whiz's in-person meeting with VA Secretary Collins in Washington, D.C., advocating for access, research, and reform• Updates from the federal summit on psychedelic medicine, bringing together scientists, policymakers, and veteran advocates• Breaking news: The FDA Commissioner confirms that exploring psychedelic medicine is a “top priority” for the Trump administration• The nomination of a new U.S. Surgeon General who claims psilocybin helped her heal and find loveThe episode closes with a forward-looking vision:Over the next four years, Whiz sees the rescheduling of psychedelic medicines, the creation of veteran vouchers, and stronger partnerships between the VA and nonprofit organizations delivering real-world outcomes.This episode is more than a reflection—it's a rally cry. The mission is clear: healing our heroes at home starts now.

In this episode, we're unpacking the appointment of Dr. Casey Means as the new U.S. Surgeon General and everything that's wrong with politicizing public health. Kristin and I get into functional medicine red flags, why “root cause” messaging can actually be dangerous, and the bizarre rise of raw milk influencers. (Spoiler: bovine tuberculosis is real, and no, we don't want it.) We also talk about how Mother's Day made us reflect on post-trauma rituals, parenting energy levels, and... potted plants. It's chaotic, a little gross, and kind of philosophical. You know—classic Knock Knock, Hi! Takeaways: Our new Surgeon General left residency six months before finishing—and that's just the beginning. Raw milk is trending again. So is tuberculosis. These two things are not unrelated. We invent “juice cleanses for your kidneys,” and no, please don't do that. Kristin makes the connection between surviving Will's cardiac arrest and suddenly keeping plants alive. And yes, we've reached the “bovine TB” phase of American wellness culture. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live  We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

It’s time for a rebroadcast of a wonderful interview with my old friend, Dr. Casey Means, where she talked about the launch of her book, Good Energy. It has been a year since we talked on the eve of her book launch, which was just about to go number one and become a New York Times bestseller, and in other news, Dr. Casey has just been appointed to become the Surgeon General of the United States of America. Amazing news, a bit controversial these days since everything in politics is controversial, but long time listeners know that I steer completely clear of politics on this show, however I did want to give a plug for Dr. Casey and encourage you to listen to this interview if you didn't hear it the first time around, as she now rises to the highest position in America for doctors. In this episode, you will learn all about Dr. Casey Means’ book Good Energy: The Surprising Connection Between Metabolism and Limitless Health, which she wrote with her brother, Calley Means, and hear her talk about the broken medical industrial complex—a subject that is of deep significance for her since (as she talked about in her first appearance on the show) she used to be a dutiful doctor, a highly trained throat surgeon who was just trying to do her best, until she realized how dysfunctional the whole system was. She had a realization: no one was really getting better. They were, however, coming in for more surgery, and this sparked her decision to pursue a career in the alternative health world instead, an issue that only became more important and personal to her after she experienced the deep pain and frustration of watching her mother die of a preventable disease. This is a great episode to listen to if you want to learn about all the nuances of our profit-driven medical system, the science and details of how mitochondrial function essentially represents the essence of our health, why mitochondrial dysfunction represents the whole cause of all disease, the scary statistic about Americans and metabolic syndrome risk factors that shocked me, and more! Casey Means, MD, Surgeon General of the United States of America, is a Stanford-trained physician, the Chief Medical Officer and Co-founder of metabolic health company Levels, and Associate Editor of the International Journal of Disease Reversal and Prevention. Her mission is to maximize human potential and reverse the epidemic of preventable chronic disease by empowering individuals with tech-enabled tools that can inform smart, personalized, and sustainable dietary and lifestyle choices. Check out her website and visit CaseyMeans.com/goodenergy to read her best-selling book, Good Energy. TIMESTAMPS: Sixty-eight percent of Americans are classified as metabolically unhealthy. [03:08] It's a totally unstainable path that we are on as a country. [09:04] After becoming a head and neck surgeon, Dr. Means realized that she was not improving people's health. She wanted to focus on prevention. [12:00] Cancer is a metabolic dysfunction. We are focusing on the wrong problem. [14:41] The health care industry is fast growing and it makes more money when you are sick than when you are well. [20:02] Everything in moderation is a very bad way to look at diet. [29:48] There is such a thing as bad food. [35:19] You need to understand your own body and read the signals your body sends to you. [36:23] We have normalized not feeling well, that we don't notice it. [41:55] When we eat processed foods, they are not benign. It's more than just calories. [46:53] The ingredients in the processed foods trigger your desire to overeat. The bigger the glucose spike, the bigger the crash [53:54] High fructose corn syrup is in so many foods and is very problematic. [58:39] There are five foods that you want to include to support your mitochondrial function. [01:01:36] In a few months, if you follow those suggestions, your markers on your blood tests will show a huge difference if you were pre-diabetic. [01:09:24] Why isn't the medical system focused more on prevention? [01:15:03] LINKS: Brad Kearns.com BradNutrition.com B.rad Whey Protein Superfuel - The Best Protein on The Planet!

-- On the Show: — Trump talks about suspending habeas corpus, a mayor is arrested for protesting, and much of the country shrugs. We explain how normalization is the point—and how authoritarianism doesn't need shock, just your resignation. — From judges being stalked to school boards under threat, we unpack what modern civil war actually looks like—and how the U.S. may already be in one. — Trump's team is openly considering prosecuting Democrats. — Trump's orange spray tan gets more protection from Republicans than the Constitution. A student asks why he's orange—and a GOP rep panics. — We ask the uncomfortable question: what if Trump doesn't even need to finish his term? We explain how Trump was always the vehicle, not the destination—and why J.D. Vance is the backup plan. — RFK Jr. casually admits Trump took $100 million from Big Pharma—and Trump nods. Then the pharma stocks go up. But sure, he “can't be bought.” — MAGA civil war explodes as Trump names a new Surgeon General who's too moderate for the fringe. Anti-vaxxers turn on Trump. RFK Jr. branded controlled opposition. — Rand Paul goes rogue, saying Trump shouldn't accept Qatar's $400 million plane, and admitting tariffs hurt Americans.

"All bets are off if they start snatching judges." Judges are being threatened, civic institutions are under assault, and authoritarian tactics are becoming normalized. The right's strategy is relentless: show up, take over, and silence dissent. Meanwhile, apathy and disengagement from the left have created a vacuum that fascists are more than willing to fill. Fighting back won't come from Washington—it starts with showing up at the most local levels and refusing to cede ground. The time is now, people. You are the heroes of this story...if you show up. Rick takes your questions on everything from Little Marco, the new Pope, the backslide of American Democracy, and the non-doctor, non-expert Trump wants for Surgeon General.

Today, some of our conversation will focus on the new picks of Donald Trump for Surgeon General and FEMA. Stigall discussed with Dr. Robert Malone two big developments in the MAHA movement. One, the pick of Casey Means as the next Surgeon General and the other his list of crimes committed by Dr. Fauci. Then you'll meet an absolutely stellar American chosen to head FEMA. He's only been on the job since May 8th, but makes the case to Stigall today that the agency is more than ready for any event and not in "chaos" as legacy media would have you believe. Plus, Stigall feels God moving big time in the culture and the news cycle and spends some time with it related to everything from the Pope, to Charlie Kirk, Joe Rogan, and more. And Steve Moore and Stigall spar a little bit on Trump's executive action to force Big Pharma to charge Americans no more for their drugs than other countries. Nobody likes "price controls" if you're a conservative, but much like the tariff fight - this isn't a free market system we're dealing with is it? -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShow -Help protect your wealth with real, physical gold and silver.

There's an endearing saying that the U.S. surgeon general's primary role is to be the nation's family doctor. They represent America's medical community, educate the public on current health risks, and wield tremendous influence over medical and scientific information. On Thursday, President Trump nominated Dr. Casey Means to take on this important role. Casey's background is unique. After attending Stanford Medical School, she dropped out of her residency program in her ninth year, when she realized the course wasn't addressing the root causes of illness. Since then, she, along with her brother Calley Means, co-founded Levels, a company focused on glucose monitoring, and the pair co-authored Good Energy: The Surprising Connection Between Metabolism and Limitless Health. In recent years, she has been a leading figure in the Make America Healthy Again movement, speaking out against pharmaceutical, food, and chemical companies, and advocating for “root cause” medicine. We had Casey on Honestly back in 2022, and today, we're replaying that episode so you can better understand who Casey Means is, what she believes, how we got so sick, and how she wants to tackle chronic illness.

White smoke! Cardinal Robert Prevost, an American-born prelate with a surprisingly political Twitter history, dons the papal vestments as Pope Leo XIV. Trump announces a trade deal with the United Kingdom and swaps out two key nominees for MAGA (and MAHA) favorites: tree-loving influencer Casey Means for Surgeon General, and Fox News's Jeanine Pirro for US Attorney for DC. Senate Democrats clash with Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and FBI Director Kash Patel over the constitutional right to due process. And President Joe Biden attempts to rehabilitate his reputation, going on The View to talk about why he believes he would've won the 2024 election. Jon and Dan discuss MAGA's reaction to our new, possibly woke pope, House Republicans' internal debate over Medicaid cuts, and why Democrats should be honest about Biden's decline. Then, Jon talks to Leah Litman, co-host of Strict Scrutiny, about the Trump administration's attacks on the judicial system and her new book Lawless: How the Supreme Court Runs on Conservative Grievance, Fringe Theories, and Bad Vibes. For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

The Trump administration announced plans, currently on hold, to deport migrants to Libya, even if they are not from the country originally, and offered a financial incentive for people to "self-deport." Then, President Trump pulled his previous nominee for surgeon general, and nominated a wellness influencer recommended to him by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. And, we say so long — but not farewell — to a podcast stalwart.

Is MAHA under threat? If so, what is the nature of the threat? Following the nomination of Casey Means for Surgeon General, MAHA on-line has polarized: is she a Manchurian candidate, or is she what she appears? If she is what she appears, is her lack of focus on vaccine safety cause for concern? What is the value of experience, clinical and otherwise, in developing wisdom? How can MAHA, a movement forged in fire, maintain strength and rigor as the conditions change?*****Our sponsors:CrowdHealth: Pay for healthcare with crowdfunding instead of insurance.

It's just unmistakeable the difference in traditional GOP Washington versus what we're watching and hearing from the populist revolt of President Trump and his cabinet. Stigall checks in with Congressman Scott Perry on the status of the big, beautiful bill upon which this entire economy's future hinges. Warning, you won't come away feeling great about the conversation. What is undeniably good news is the Trump administration surgically striking on every front and delivering what the people want. JD Vance returns to the Munich Security Conference and further explains the importance of a value set that the US and Europe share. Or at least used to. Which also brings up the MAHA movement and much excitement surrounding the selection of Casey Means as the next Surgeon General of the United States. Stigall makes an apology to a radio affiliate for a misunderstanding this week, and two great podcasters join the show - Alex Marlow and Joe Pags - the newest editions to the Salem Podcast Network with this show you're about to enjoy.
