Diamond and the host, Lizzie O'Leary, explore the motivations behind the announcement, the validity of the research cited, and the potential impact on public health and future autism research, while also addressing the concerns and reactions from the medical and autism communities. The episode further delves into the backgrounds of Trump and RFK Jr., their shared beliefs, and the broader implications of their involvement in shaping health policy based on personal convictions rather than scientific evidence.
