In this episode, we ask: what happens when one person says “no” and an entire public health effort grinds to a halt? We’re diving into the Utah measles outbreak where a single uncooperative patient may have helped the virus do what it does best: spread.

Then: 60,000 kids spared peanut allergies thanks to one bold 2015 study, and yet most doctors still don’t follow the updated advice. It’s science whiplash: a story about how medical guidance can take a decade to sink in.

Plus: Sam Altman loses his patience after 7+ years, jumping on the bandwagon to get his $50K back from Tesla.  

Finally: we look at that nightly melatonin habit of yours and what it might be saying about your achy-breaky heart.

It’s science, stubbornness, and sleep with just enough nonsense to hold it all together.
