0:00.0	Welcome, everybody.
0:08.3	I want to kick off the show today by telling you I have an important message.
0:12.7	I'm not drinking the raw milk.
0:14.8	Sorry.
0:16.7	Raw milk, the thing your great grandfather drank before pasteurization was invented to stop people
0:23.4	from dying, it has become a political movement.
0:26.8	Raw milk is sort of the perfect mix of science denial and libertarian fantasy.
0:33.5	Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Donald Trump's nominee for Secretary of Health and Human Services is pushing it.
0:40.0	He loves it.
0:41.1	RFK even wants to bring in a raw milk CEO who is currently the subject of a raw milk recall
0:48.8	to advise the administration.
0:51.5	And I want to be super clear, I'm not drinking the milk. It's not the

1:23.5	pathogens. They love to say raw milk is healthier. It'll cure your allergies. It'll fix your gut.
1:31.9	It tastes better. Maybe it'll align your chakras. But the truth is that there is zero science
1:38.8	to back this up unless you're looking at the science of hospital admissions, which do go up when raw milk is introduced.
1:46.9	Now, I'll tell you, maybe it does taste better. I have a few friends who have said, oh, David,
1:52.6	this milk will blow your mind. It tastes so good. You know, do I care that much? Am I missing better
1:59.5	tasting milk from my life? Is it really worth the risk?
