“Doctors Should Stop Acting Like Scientists”

Dr. Andrea Love and Dr. Jessica Steier are two of the smartest people in medical media. Together they host The Unbiased Science Podcast where they attack the trending medical controversies relying exclusively on the data. This allows them to remove emotion from their discussions and allow research and math to lead them to conclusions that are often messy but reliable. They've done deep dives on intermittent fasting, infant feeding, COVID vaccines... you name it. I invited them on the show to discuss some issues that have been on my mind lately, especially surrounding the way medical experts have been communicating with each other on social media. We talked about that toxicity as well as shaming people for how they've responded to the pandemic, treating inflammation with cold plunges, and whether or not doctors are actually scientists. If you like nuanced discussion about health and medicine, you’re in the right place.
