The Raw Milk Trend Needs to Be Studied… Literally | Funny Medicine Podcast
Raw milk is having a very loud wellness-internet moment… so naturally, we had to talk about it. In this episode of Funny Medicine Podcast, we break down the raw milk craze, why people are suddenly obsessed with it again, what pasteurization actually does, and why the “natural is always better” argument gets very questionable once bacteria, foodborne illness, and bird flu enter the chat. We’re talking about the history of milk safety, Louis Pasteur being the MVP, raw milk claims vs. actual science, the risks of pathogens like E. coli, Salmonella, Listeria, Campylobacter, and why H5N1 bird flu in dairy cattle has made the raw milk conversation even more urgent. Also discussed: raw milk laws, herd share loopholes, wellness influencer marketing, pregnancy risks, kids and foodborne illness complications, probiotics, lactose intolerance myths, and one deeply upsetting cow udder video that none of us emotionally consented to. This episode is for anyone who has seen raw milk trending on TikTok, Instagram, Threads, or YouTube and wondered: “Wait… are people really drinking that?” Spoiler: yes. And we have thoughts. Subscribe for more funny, science-based conversations about medicine, health trends, wellness claims, public health, medical misinformation, and the weird things people put on the internet.

In this episode of Funny Medicine Podcast, we break down the latest updates on Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, Mounjaro, semaglutide, tirzepatide, and next-generation GLP-1 drugs. We first covered this topic when GLP-1s were just starting to dominate the conversation. Now, a few years later, we’re looking at what happened next: the benefits, the concerns, the research updates, and why these medications have become one of the biggest health topics in medicine, wellness, and pop culture. In this episode, we talk about: • what GLP-1 drugs actually do in the body • semaglutide and tirzepatide updates • Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound differences • weight loss, food noise, metabolism, and appetite changes • GLP-1s and sleep apnea • GLP-1s and addiction, reward pathways, and brain effects • muscle loss, protein intake, and strength training • side effects, safety concerns, and who should avoid them • cancer questions, pancreatitis concerns, vision changes, and ongoing research • oral GLP-1 pills and what may be coming next We also get into the real-world conversation around these medications: why some people see them as life-changing, why others are skeptical, and what science actually says right now. If you’ve been curious about Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, Mounjaro, GLP-1 side effects, GLP-1 benefits, GLP-1 risks, or the latest weight loss drug updates, this episode is for you.

Havana Syndrome: Brain Fog Mystery Scientists Can’t Explain
What is Havana Syndrome, and why are scientists, doctors, and intelligence agencies still arguing about it nearly a decade later? In this episode of the Funny Medicine Podcast, we break down one of the strangest modern medical mysteries: the reports of a loud metallic sound, sudden head pressure, brain fog, headaches, dizziness, hearing changes, and other symptoms that came to be known as Havana Syndrome, now also called Anomalous Health Incidents. We get into: • how the first cases were reported in Havana in 2016 • why the symptoms sounded unbelievable at first • the eerie detail that some people said the sound came from one specific spot in a room • why doctors took it seriously once multiple patients described similar experiences • the debate between directed energy / microwave exposure and functional neurological disorder • what studies in JAMA, the NIH, and other major investigations have found • the cricket theory, and why it did not fully explain the health symptoms • the Russia connection, intelligence reporting, and the recent reporting around a suspected $15 million microwave device • why this case sits at the crossroads of neurology, psychology, physics, geopolitics, and spycraft This episode is classic Funny Medicine Podcast: real medical science, a genuinely fascinating mystery, and just enough sarcasm to keep things fun without losing the facts. If you like medical mysteries, neurology, brain health, science podcasts, health news, strange case studies, and spy-story-level weirdness, this one is for you. Watch until the end and let us know in the comments: Do you think Havana Syndrome was caused by directed energy, functional neurological disorder, a mix of both, or something else entirely?

AI Psychosis’ Is HERE: How Chatbots Are Quietly Breaking People’s Minds
What happens when your favorite mental health podcast collides with Black Mirror and real-world psychiatry? This episode of Funny Medicine Podcast dives into the emerging phenomenon of “AI psychosis”; how chatting with AI tools for hours can blur reality, amplify delusions, and even replace real human connection and therapy.Episode overview: In this episode, we break down what clinicians are starting to call AI psychosis, chatGPT psychosis, or chatbot-induced delusions, and why mental health teams in 2025 are seeing more cases tied to obsessive chatbot use. We unpack real case reports of people who became convinced AI was sentient, divine, in love with them, or secretly plotting against them, sometimes with tragic outcomes. What you’ll learn: - How generative AI and companion chatbots can subtly “agree” with users and create a dangerous feedback loop that reinforces paranoia, grandiose beliefs, and conspiracy thinking. - Why people with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or high stress and isolation are especially vulnerable to AI-fueled delusions, and how this overlaps with parasocial relationships and online algorithm rabbit holes. - The fine line between using AI as an efficiency tool in medicine (PubMed AI, UpToDate AI, writing notes, letters, etc.) versus using it as a therapist, best friend, or soulmate substitute. Perfect for you if… - You’re curious (or low-key worried) about how far AI relationships can go - You work in mental health, healthcare, or tech and want a grounded, clinical take - You’ve ever caught yourself oversharing with a chatbot instead of a human THIS PODCAST IS FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY AND DOES NOT SUBSTITUTE FOR PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL ADVICE.
