When RFK Jr. questioned Tylenol’s safety in pregnancy and autism risk, an old 2017 Tylenol tweet resurfaced, and the media firestorm began. MSNBC called it “reckless fearmongering,” Fox News compared Tylenol to “the next asbestos,” and HuffPost warned of “dangerous pseudoscience.” But what do these extreme reactions reveal about our culture?
In this episode of The Voyage Cast, Eddie unpacks the psychology of fear, why our brains react before they reason, and how philosophers like Kierkegaard and Aristotle remind us that knowledge without wisdom is useless. Beyond medicine, this story is about how we handle fear in our relationships, marriages, and families, and why wisdom, not outrage, is the only way forward.
