Listen Later

Re-release Making America Healthy Again Part 2! Original air date: 10/31/24.

Jessica talks with three guests for their reflections on her interview with Jeff Hutt, spokesperson for the Make America Healthy Again PAC and shares email feedback from a listener and her 18 year old daughter.

Medical sociologist Dr. Natalie Ingraham joins the show to talk about the people part of MAHA and the concept of “again.” Jessica discusses the interviews of Calley Means and Charlie Kirk that she dove into. Natalie talks about the regulations of the 80s versus 90s and has some solutions we could try if we’re interested in future changes.

Jessica then talks to Kent Thomas about the men of it all in the MAHA conversation, and he asks Jessica why she’s looking into MAHA in the first place.

Lastly Jessica brings you a conversation with her dad about his reflections of the episode. That chat was wide ranging and opened up many future podcast episodes.
