Your Colon and You

Kaveh also covers the role of diet, obesity, the gut microbiome, and the latest research on why younger patients may be different.He also answers rapid-fire colon questions: coffee and bathroom urgency, floating stool, mucus, poop frequency, stool shape, and bleeding or color changes you should never ignore.

Post Partum Mental Health
Kaveh is joined by Reproductive Psychiatrist Katrina Furey, Dr. Salman Mirza and Rebecca Watson to discuss the Lindsay Clancy case (the tragic case of an OB/GYN nurse who is undergoing trial for the deaths of her three young children) and to untangle the difference between postpartum depression, postpartum OCD, and postpartum psychosis. You’ll discover why the postpartum period is the highest-risk time for a woman’s first mental health episode, how rapid hormone shifts can affect the brain, and why intrusive thoughts are not always the same thing as psychosis.We break down the signs clinicians should not miss - including sleep loss, agitation, paranoia, delusions, hallucinations, and sudden changes in cognition or behavior - plus the real-world screening tools and treatment decisions that can make the difference, from mood stabilizers to ECT to emergency hospitalization. Katrina also explains why many providers are undertrained in women’s mental health, why a simple depression screen is not enough, and how systems failures can leave patients and families without the help they need.

America's Vibe Based Healthcare
The Trump administration's push to split the MMR vaccine into three separate shots and slash the childhood vaccine schedule down to 11 injections represents one of the most significant federal interventions in immunization policy in a generation. But here's the thing: the separate MMR vaccine doesn't exist, Merck has said they won't make it, and the science has been settled for decades. Dr. Kaveh Hoda sits down with epidemiologist Jessica Malaty Rivera and musician Mark Gasaway to unpack the politics behind the plan — from RFK Jr.'s dismantling of the ACIP to the confirmation of a new CDC director who may bend the knee. They dig into the Andrew Wakefield legacy, the impossible standard of "proving a negative," and why comparing the U.S. to Denmark is apples to steaks. Plus: the rise of peptides and raw milk as the latest wellness grifts, COVID revisionism, and what it will actually take to rebuild public trust in science.🎙️ Enjoyed the episode?

Should You Go To Med School?
Dr. Kaveh Hoda is joined by his nephew, intern Ali — in a last ditch effort to convince him to go to med school — and Dr. Anika Warner, a board-certified internist, NIH fellow, and admissions consultant at Inspira Advantage.They tackle the big questions: should you go to medical school? How do you get in? Dr. Warner draws on her time serving on the Johns Hopkins admissions committee to share what actually makes a strong application, why your personal narrative matters more than a checklist of activities, and the only real "wrong" reason to apply. The group also covers gap years, the med school vs. PA school debate, AI in the application process, and listener questions on finances, older applicants, and staying politically active online.Honest, practical, and a little bit funny — Make sure to share with someone in your life that might be considering med school!

Lies RFK Jr Told
A government committee is trying to turn Anthony Fauci's Fifth Amendment into a crime, while RFK Jr. keeps selling vaccine fear with claims that fall apart under basic scrutiny. If you care about public health, scientific honesty, or what happens when politics starts prosecuting doctors, this one will make your blood boil. Dr. Kaveh Hoda reacts to the latest Fauci hearing, where Rand Paul and Senate Republicans push a contempt referral after Fauci refuses a partisan setup and invokes his constitutional rights. Kaveh breaks down how Tulsi Gabbard's lab leak document dump fuels the narrative, why the pardon fight is legally shaky, and why this feels less like oversight and more like a political trap.Then the episode turns to RFK Jr.'s CNN interview with Dana Bash, and the claims get even wilder. You'll hear why his arguments about Lyme disease, RSV, measles, ICU capacity, Tylenol, autism, and vaccine schedules don't hold up, plus a clear explanation of what gain-of-function research actually is and why it keeps getting weaponized in public debate.

Biblical Nutrition
Dr. Kaveh Hoda is joined by Nathaniel Heidari (Memingless podcast) and nutritionist Kevin Klatt to dig into the world of "biblical nutrition," focusing on self-proclaimed expert Annette Reeder. The episode traces her murky educational credentials, dissects her viral claims about phytic acid and high-fructose corn syrup, and follows the money trail through supplements, grain mills, coaching programs, and a $1,433 sales funnel — all wrapped in scripture.

Pete's War on Low T
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth just announced mandatory annual testosterone screening for U.S. service members over 30 — under the banner "The High T Department of War." Dr. Kaveh Hoda breaks down what's actually true about low T with pediatric endocrinologist Dr. Riordan Ledgerwood, a proudly trans-masculine Army veteran, and returning guest Myke Cole — writer, veteran, and author of The Bronze Lie — who's spent years dismantling the myth of the Spartan super-soldier.Together they dig into what low testosterone really means medically, why there's zero scientific evidence linking T levels to battlefield lethality, and the risks (yes, including gynecomastia) of dosing healthy young men who don't need it. They trace the "warrior hormone" myth back through history — from Spartan arete to Viking drengskapar — and connect it to the internet-fueled backlash against Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey and its casting choices. Plus: is The Odyssey actually a good movie? A mix of hard medical science, ancient history, and pop culture, with the usual dose of hot sauce.Enjoyed the episode?
