About this episode

The episode analyzes RFK Jr.'s new podcast, discussing its claims and the underlying issues of misinformation and scientific integrity.

RFK Jr. has a new podcast — the Secretary Kennedy Podcast — and Dr. Kaveh Hoda sat through hours of it so you don't have to. Joining him are epidemiologist Dr. Elizabeth Jacobs and journalist/misinformation researcher Garrison Davis to break down what the show claims to be, what it actually is, and whatever "polyanecdotal" means. The trio dig into RFK Jr.'s branding as an anti-establishment truth-teller (despite literally being the establishment), his shaky grip on the scientific method, cherry-picked studies dressed up as "peer-reviewed," the MAHA/MAGA overlap, his takes on psychiatry and antidepressants, and the class politics hiding behind his food-as-medicine rhetoric.
