This week, Dr. Steve Novella joins us in learning that medicine has been a waste of time all along.

Comments

Ryan Conway

It’s what THEY don’t want you to know!!!

Fren

The intro got me HARD.

Rachel J Larris

I’ve heard the name of the guest before on this show. Was it in Ray Comfort movies?

Markus Nävergård

so, they have done one on staring into the sun, one on water retaining memories and now earth. just need one on wind and we have the 4 elements of pseudoscience bullshit

every voice listening

In the live show of "A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Moon," Eli accused Dr. Novella of murder several times.

Alex

Glad to see Eli has been forgiven for accusing Steve Novella of multiple murders after all this time

Markus Nävergård

" i got sick from chemicals" everything alive is just combinations of chemicals

Christina Marta

Poor Steve. He is retiring and this is how you treat him?!

Roger

I am so excited to listen to this! Did Cara adequately prep him for GAM’s madness? Can’t wait to find out.

Melazond

loloolll I can't wait to listen!

Nicholas Monter

I'm excited for this. I may need to do my afternoon walk in the morning!

Markus Nävergård

"what they say sounds stupid,BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUt they have a labcoat on so it must be right"

James C.

THEY FINALLY DID IT

Denise Huston

"I stub my toes every day." Get your inner ear checked, my dude, something is wrong with you.

Romeijn

Steve Novella, the confirmed murder? That's an old Eli joke...

Heather

Oh my god, I have this fucking insane fundamentalist cousin who put a grounding bedsheet on her wedding registry! I didn't care enough to go figure out what that was, but someone paid over $100 to buy that for her and this is what it was?!!!

Sammypt

Oh no!!!! I got to the 47min mark before I realized… my mom bought a “grounding mat” last year. When she was having me “install” it I got to looking at it… it literally just plugged in to the ground socket of your standard household electrical outlet. I asked her what did she expect it to do? She thought it had some type of electrical properties that would help with aches and pains (she has fibromyalgia and has had neck injury- ya know, desperate for anything that might work). I explained that it was about as useful as literally laying on the ground outside and wishing you felt better. Wow, what a bunch of woo!!!

Amanda McGuirt

I had a miscarriage last week. I understand the desperation of needing a way to fix this. And I'm even more infuriated at these charlatan woo merchants. I would call them vultures, but vultures are a necessary part of an ecosystem. Those people aren't even worthy of eating roadkill.

Amanda McGuirt

Every time I hear someone malign chemicals, I tell them water is a chemical.

Dexter

So I encountered “grounding” when I found a meetup group that was doing barefoot hiking. I was intrigued so went a couple times. I didn’t think much of their magic woo and couldn’t be bothered to listen to their sales pitch. I was just there to be weird with other freaks. But I’ll tell you why so many people find “grounding” to be life-changing. It’s because they are breaking a social norm. They’re being a bit of a freak and that’s both exciting and invigorating. They think they’re absorbing the power of the universe like they and nature are in some niche vore comic, but really it’s just breaking the chains of social expectation in a safe and affirming group and that is something that always feels great. Now if only they realized there’s a lot more they can do with their feet beyond walking barefoot~ ;)

"Dogs don't get autism because dogs don't wear shoes."

Markus Nävergård

telling them " you are chemicals" and they scream in horror

Rachael L

The YouTube comments on a version of this video are like walking barefoot through a garbage dump. Just watching a short clip has left me chronically inflamed. Quick, take my money for an 'earthing blanket' and sell me some manure to stand on!

Markus D

If they just did it for general enjoyment instead of pretending it's magic, I'd have absolutely no problem with it. Though I DO think that no shoes in public buildings like an airport is just asking for trouble.

Bowl of Piss Water

Hell, elastic was common in shoes after about 1875, guve or take a few years.

Markus D

As a (autistic) kid, I didn't like wearing shoes. Now I know it's because I YEARNED FOR THE ELECTRONS.

Grant Cosper

Who becomes the Avatar? (or Capt. Planet)?

Sammypt

Im guessing they had a pretty convincing YouTube, homemade advertisement, like that Gorilla Piss supplement. You take that stuff and you’ll be knocking over soup cans from 30 feet away! The ladies will say, “Wow! That’s a powerful stream! As impressive as a gorilla!”

Caldwell

> continuity meter impossible for those to be useful in 2025, because it would always be reading "this shit is weird and has nothing to do with what was happening yesterday."

Krostos

It's weird to name your method of gaining electrons after the way we prevent electrons from going into people. Like that's the entire point of grounding something, that the electricity will prefer to flow into the earth, rather than you. Like it's bad enough that theoretically their method will do the opposite of what they want, but why draw attention to it?

Winter

The woman I knew who did this cleaned my house for 13 years and when she started she was a normal person - she was late to the first cleaning because her daughter was having gallbladder surgery and when she left it was because she couldn't be around electricity anymore because it made her sick . . . she and her husband are living in an RV in the dark in far East Texas somewhere growing vegetables in hay bales because chemtrails have ruined the ground or something . . . But the grounding thing came up because I am a vegetarian, a tree hugger, and do yoga/pilates (I’m old and need to stretch) – so this means I attract some of this bullshit . . . so she asked me if I knew about grounding and I said ‘yeah – its sort of this thing that some people see as spiritual but its just mediation outside’ – and she proceeded to explain ‘grounding’ (as in this documentary) to me . . . I sort of take Marsh’s approach to crazy people and just let them talk because I’m interested . . . they make grounding socks too – and things you can put on the bottom of your shoes to counteract the plastic I guess . . . I just can’t even – like I had acupuncture work one time (and it was free and I’m into BDSM – so I’m happy calling it just my brain wanting it to work) – but that’s as far as I’ve every voluntarily gotten in to holistic medicine . . .

Jemi Francois

Is Christianity just a marketing strategy disguised as a religion?

WelcomeToFalse

Needless to say, Noah, I think we’ve all had our A-ha moment.

Angela Earle

But my music professor in college told us the only reason we even know about ancient Rome through the dark and middle ages is because The Church held the world together! I mean, can you imagine our confusion about all of those buildings, the Coliseum, and their writings?? Thanks?!

Angela Earle

I too do a lot of yoga- in my 50’s and arthritis in my back - it’s pretty much how I’m still walking. I work night shift, so I do a lot of yoga classes online. I really loved this new, young and beautifully fat instructor BUT, she did chatterungu den dasse (you know what I mean-the”flow”) between every single change in position. I asked her why, it was killing my shoulders, so I wanted to know what the benefit was/is to her class, and all classes….. she said it was a “palate cleanser.” I did research then - like, why hadn’t I done this before??!!!! - and no one had an answer. That it was just “central to vinyasa yoga,” and helped “create heat.” And, that when not done in perfect push-up form was bad, that they were also known as “shoulder shredders.” Basically, cuz we’ve always done it this way….. Shocked that no one brought up my astrology sign …

Winter

Yeah that’s the problem with that stuff - it goes off the rails pretty quickly … I just moved cross country and my GP referred me to a ‘wholistic psychiatrist’ that wanted to meet once a week - first, I have a job and second that is going to end with me calling someone an idiot and having to find another psychiatrist …

Sarah Normal

Wait, is this the same Dr. Steven Novella from The Great Courses?!

The DinosaurDave

Given every single aussie walks around bare foot, all the time, you would expect us to have beyond perfect health... not one of the highest skin cancer rates in the world.

Sarah Normal

Dr. Novella cussing is the energy I need to get me through this year. So grateful for that gift. 🙏

Markus D

It did WHAT!?

Starshark

Or obesity which rivals the US, sometimes higher than the US.

Starshark

All this talk about studies reminds me of the Covid outbreak when dummies were hawking Ivermectin. One person on Twitter said, "This is a PEER REVIEWED study in the LANCET which says it works!" So I thought, "Let's just see what the peers say, shall we?" "This study is bullshit and has no business being in the Lancet." <--- admittedly I editorialised a little there, but you get the gist.

Sammypt

Oh no… I asked my Mom if she remembered her “grounding mat” and she immediately went to depressed mode and said that I made fun of her so much she tried to forget all about it. 😰 I told her that they have a pretty snazzy advertisement that makes it sound pretty believable after only one viewing. I can’t judge her, I use to think Building 7 was an inside job as well. You can believe anything with enough spin!

Markus Nävergård

that could come from the danger of going outside in Australia

Fren

No. wait. not that. Jesus..😂

Oso Hermoso

The consequences of magical thinking…

Kamaljeet Gill

This is a bit of a call back, but I just read Mark Wahlberg's non-pology for The Happening: "It is what it is. Fucking trees, man. The plants. Fuck it. You can’t blame me for not wanting to try to play a science teacher. At least I wasn’t playing a cop or a crook."

Markus Nävergård

Marky Mark has never played a science teacher. i refuse that statment

Zach Van Stanley

I actually love watching vultures. They are some of the most graceful birds in the sky, and like you said, they are essential in the ecosystem. It’s a shame to dirty their name by association with these people.

Zach Van Stanley

I like barefoot walking, and it is good for you, but in the expected way of strengthening your feet, ankles, and calves. Just like yoga is good for flexibility and breathing control. Just don’t expect anything miraculous.

Catboyslim

Speak for yourself chubbs , America for the win! USA! USA!……wait…what?

Catboyslim

My Geometry teacher in high school said if it wasn’t for religion we would have made it to the moon a hundred years faster…. and nobody clutched their pearls and reported him to the PTA

Dawn Neuciler

I love being barefoot (my diabetic clinic nurse would gasp) but it's because I'm feral.

Markus Nävergård

Hey, i´d love to do that Snake hugging thing. not that i belive snakes are magic, i just like snakes
