Summary

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: 4:00pm- Dr. Marty Makary—Surgeon and Professor of Medicine at Johns Hopkins University—joins The Rich Zeoli Show for a special long-form interview about his New York Times bestselling book, “Blind Spots: When Medicine Gets It Wrong, and What It Means for Our Health.” He explains “the ruling class likes to make a lot of decisions for the rest of us” but that open discussion and deliberation is required in the medical field. For example, we all know “breakfast is the most important meal of the day”—however, did you know it’s merely a slogan developed by Kellogg’s, the breakfast cereal company? Plus, Dr. Makary reacts to political efforts to ban “misinformation” in medicine. The medical establishment cannot afford to be censored. 4:40pm- While speaking in Scranton, Pennsylvania, Donald Trump referred to Kamala Harris as the “Tax Queen” and said that if her policies are enacted, the country will find itself in a “1929-style depression.”
