Summary

Hour 1: 3:05pm- While appearing on Fox News, Steamfitters Local 638 Union member Bob Bartels announced that 70% of his union is supporting Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election. According to internal polling, members of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters heavily favor Trump over Kamala Harris—58% to 36%. Yesterday, Teamsters leadership announced they would not be endorsing either candidate. It’s the first time the International Brotherhood of Teamsters has opted out of endorsing a presidential candidate since 1996. In 2020, they supported Joe Biden—and have historically endorsed Democrats. 3:15pm- Rich interrupts his own show with breaking news: he may have lice! Matt, a well-known elitist, is horrified—especially since he saw Rich yesterday! 3:30pm- Dr. Marty Makary—Surgeon and Professor of Medicine at Johns Hopkins University—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his new book, “Blind Spots: When Medicine Gets It Wrong, and What It Means for Our Health.” Dr. Makary summarizes one of the most fascinating chapters of the book—“The Salem Peanut Trial” where he explains: “Deaths from peanut allergies are real, and living with the problem can be terrifying. Compounding the tragedy is knowing that America’s epidemic of peanut allergies is a largely avoidable consequence of our policy of peanut abstinence.” A summarized version of the chapter is featured in The Wall Street Journal: https://www.wsj.com/health/how-pediatricians-created-the-peanut-allergy-epidemic-952831c4?mod=us-news_lead_story. PLUS, Dr. Makary weighs-in on Rich’s potential lice diagnosis. Good news: Rich is going to survive! You can find Dr. Makary’s new book here: https://www.amazon.com/Blind-Spots-Medicine-Wrong-Health/dp/1639735313 3:50pm- Rich recaps his conversation with Dr. Marty Makary. Why did he ask a world-renowned surgeon at Johns Hopkins about potentially having head lice?! It’s only hour one of the show and things have already gone off the rails completely.

and stop paying attention to them because they're just annoying but I did notice and

0:17.3

0:20.8

place to do the show out there and just talk to people out there because I think that's where the action is.
