About this listen

RFK Jr. and Dr. Casey Means are examples of the weird and growing crossover between health influencers and Christian right politics. Amanda breaks down why it's happening and the specific dangers of Means, an unlicensed functional medicine doctor who talks to trees, hates sunscreen and apparently is also an amateur poet? In this episode, Amanda reads Means’ poetry and explains why RFK Jr.'s minions include the Christian right and anti-science MAHA moms. Journalist Lindsay Beyerstein, who writes about fringe health schemes, joins the Pass the Mic segment this week.
