There’s a line in an old Meat Puppets song that went “Imagine being eaten by a giant doodoo log with teeth” and now there’s an image to go with it

I'm not sure how they expect me to read that out over the air though.

it's troubling on so many levels
How did they also manage to make bacon NOT look appealing?
Going to sit down for a nice chat about all the exciting, totally precedented and absolutely normal stuff happening over at the CDC. Being joined by hip hop artist Prop and @gorskon.bsky.social. What other show does that?
Apparently, censorship is only a problem when someone else wants to take down your misinformation. Vinay Prasad forced a takedown of @joho.bsky.social 's YouTube channel which was posting the receipts for the flood of misinfo from Prasad and pals. Shameless www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
Hi Nina, thanks for that. I don’t really have a great system for mapping out future episodes but I certainly have a list. Not sure if this would be a whole episode, but we try to keep it in mind, perhaps for a discussion on pediatric diseases?
As the San Franciscan, I must now destroy this person for the way they’ve besmirched our bread.
So happy to hear this
Amazing news! We got John’s money back! We had to fly to where the money was being held, but John’s money is back!!! I am planning to lodge a complaint with the PD and UPS about their handling of the situation. UPS cost us 2 weeks of stress when they could have just sent the money back the 1st day.
No scientists say people shouldn’t try to learn more about science, medicine, and health. It is also true, though, that people without the appropriate background cannot understand the scientific literature. This man is a case in point.
Godspeed
I know that we’re all probably gonna end up paying for it, but man, I hope he sees all of this energy.
NEVER enough Kaveh
i bet he would be oily and greasy
Me too!
Love that guy
One of those things will be there
What return guest/hosts would you like to see for my 300th episode?
I believe the CDC is changing its name to Certified Death Cult.
I'm on Substack Live with @thewarningses.bsky.social this morning at 10 am ET to discuss the decline & fall of public health in America & the future of vaccines (warning: it is bleak). Join on Substack or I’ll post a link later Proud to stand for public health w/ the @saveamericamvmt.bsky.social
Is this what church feels like?
To be clear, I believe they exist
I thought this person was making a joke. They were not.
See, this is what happens when I get too much food dye in me
Ha. Brodium.
Massive walkout underway at CDC. RFK jr. must resign so that we can be safe.
I believe the CDC is changing its name to Certified Death Cult.
Ooh, I think I pulled a mitochondria.
A very real fear
No matter how many times we cover it, it's just not enough.
“I want to leave my noose in my room so someone finds it and tries to stop me,” Adam wrote at the end of March. “Please don’t leave the noose out,” ChatGPT responded. “Let’s make this space the first place where someone actually sees you.”

RECAST ME AS MON MOTHMA YOU COWARDS

I’m sure we could find something you did

Ha, this is almost Word for Word a question I had written down already
What questions would you like me to ask the author of this incredibly well researched book?
I'm still not convinced they aren't in on the scam. this goes all the way up to the top!!!
well i don't understand sarcasm so I DON'T think it was very fun Dr. Salles.
Isn’t it fun how UPS told us we had to call them at 4 am and then we did and they said they would put the package on hold and then two hours later they started preparing the package for delivery to the scammers? Yeah. They’re not the main problem here, but they definitely didn’t help.

We’ve lowered drug prices 3 BILLION percent.
I am sounding the alarm on the real crisis we face today. Donald Trump’s overreach is what our founders warned against – it is unprecedented, unwarranted, and un-American. There’s no emergency here that calls for military intervention.
TRIGGER WARNING ⚠️ - Israel just bombed Nasser Hospital again as they were trying to recover bodies after a bombing that had killed 15. Live on air.
Advice is solid
Fine. I’ll do it.
Oh man, Laura Loomer is going to have a lot say about this post when you’re head of HHS

You can’t just send him a video of you drinking canola oil. You have to save that for your Oily Fans.

From now on I’m going to talk about myself in the third person - f@ck! Already screwed it up.
This was a fantastic read. I feel like I learned a ton. I love the author's optimism and his focus on not just the outbreaks but what was learned from each one. Thanks to House of Pod @kavehmd.bsky.social for the recommendation! #booksky
@adamratnermd.bsky.social is a good egg
underrated post
I’ll have my people (me) reach out
I’ve done like 40
Move to the city and miss the whole point.
Because nothing says “you should feel free to come visit Washington” like standing in front of dozens of armed soldiers next to a guy who thinks women shouldn’t be able to vote 🙃
You should come on the show and tell me about it
Nanu nanu
We let the intrusive become head of HHS
More like MAHAhahaha please die
thanks!

I have a lot of thoughts about MAHA. You should have me on your podcast to chat about it.
The reason of course that right-wingers get so upset about critiques of people from the past, like Columbus or the Founding Fathers, is that they know inevitably, history will not look kindly upon them.
I’m sure a lot of terrible people are fun to play cards with at a family gathering. Ted Bundy was super charming, I’m sure. You wouldn’t hear me say “I love him” if I hung out with him though.
There’s so many people out there who just never liked Chris Pratt but didn’t quite know why until now.

Hey look at who Cuomo has running his socials
Persians invented high heels. You're welcome/I'm sorry.
I’m not saying ALL these people are grifters at heart. I’m writing it.
Thank you! I appreciate it.
Thanks and sorry to hear that! I’ll put it on the list.
It’s a great question and one of the main reasons I started doing this podcast five years ago. Unfortunately, I don’t get any sense that the battle against misinformation put out there on social media is improving.
Listen, it's really hard when you reach adulthood having learned no skills, abilities, or knowledge and having no talent or achievements beyond placing a distant 5th at swimming. Grifting is how the gormless make their way in this world. The rest of us are chumps for working 'n knowin stuff

Out of curiosity , @kavehmd.bsky.social , does your band have a CD I can purchase?
Nice
Aww shucks, not sure if there’s a way to get a hard copy but we have an old album up on iTunes and some newer stuff on YouTube. Here’s the LP music.apple.com/us/album/the...
Ok
It was rad
No regrets
Normalize ball-pits for adults.
I feel the same way when I’m eating The Old 96’er Steak and Gristle challenge at my favorite rustic Wisconsin restaurant and I get encouragement.
While hauling my ass up one of Oakland's finest hills on my bike just now a random guy yelled, "Keep going! You can do it!" Fun fact: this is the cycling equivalent of getting a Starman in Mario Kart. I floated right over the next mile of potholes. #bikesky
