In today's episode, Kate discusses the common sentiment shared by wellness influencers: my page is for wellness, not politics. She looks at why a majority of wellness content online is apolitical, individualistic, and usually pushing you to buy new unregulated supplements. Kate digs deeper to look at how government decisions and public policy shape health outcomes in the United States by talking about environmental racism, private equity-run healthcare, deregulation, and more.

In today’s episode, Kate unpacks the world of looksmaxxing and biohacking, investigating how these lifestyle trends represent a nihilistic approach to self-preservation in a chaotic world. She looks at figures like Bryan Johnson, Clavicular, and the "Manosphere" to analyze their obsession with performing masculinity and constantly optimizing their health or appearance. Kate discusses how these online spaces radicalize men to misogynistic, pro-eugenics ideology and why the elitist biohacking obsession demonstrates a collapse of community, collective responsibility, and belief in public health.

Charlotte shares what the rise of clean beauty, non-toxic products, and anti-vax sentiments say about our current political climate. We finish off with a discussion of how to reach MAHA voters when our algorithms prioritize outrage and how we can advocate for better products in the beauty space.

In today's episode, Kate speaks to the very first guest on the show... Dr. Abdul El-Sayed. He is currently running for U.S. Senate in Michigan on a progressive policy platform that is focused on money out of politics, money in your pocket, and Medicare for All. We talk about his background in public health, what inspired him to run for office, and what he makes of RFK Jr. and the MAHA Movement.

If you live in Michigan, make sure you get out to vote for Abdul on August 4th in the Democratic Primary and on November 3rd in the general election. You can phonebank and volunteer even if you don't live in Michigan!
