Unbelievably, we now live in a world where a State will mandate that al public school classrooms MUST have a large copy of the ten Commandments on their walls. I am arranging for guest attorneys to analyze this with me in a full episode, but today, I explain why this is a ten alarm fire when it comes to the separation of government and religion in the United States.
I continue the discussion of homeopathy as I ingest 240 pain relief pills all at once! I then contact the Poison Control Center to find out what to do about my overdose.
For the start of Season 2, I wanted to address homeopathy and, more generally, alternative medicine. In order to understand how insane it is that these substances are still marketed and purchased in large numbers, I set the stage by telling the story of a person hero of mine: a doctor who saved countless lives and, in the process, paved the way for the modern FDA.
Technical difficulties have delayed my premier. Look for it to drop May 8!!
Just a quick announcement that Season Two of the Cross Examiner Podcast is coming soon!
