What happens when presidential rhetoric becomes clinical reality? Dr. Kaveh Hoda sits down with ER physician Dr. Jeremy Faust and Survivor's Shaheen Dava to discuss Casey Means' controversial surgeon general nomination, the death of expertise in modern medicine, and Jeremy's new Lancet study showing how Trump's false autism claims immediately reduced Tylenol prescriptions for pregnant patients by 10-16%. The conversation explores why influence often beats evidence, the challenges of scientific communication, and whether maintaining dialogue with those spreading misinformation is worthwhile.
