Measles Outbreak, TrumpRx & Mass Firings at the FDA with Elizabeth Booker Houston
Elizabeth Booker Houston was at the FDA for seven years before she hit her breaking point this past August. Now, she’s able to speak candidly about what it was like to work inside the federal government as departments are gutted. “Things will continue to get worse,” she tells Chelsea, as they discuss the real ways in which fired federal workers will impact the health and safety of our food and medicines. Also, they get into whether TrumpRx will really save you money, why big pharma is losing its watchdog, and how the measles outbreak hits home for Elizabeth.

Is America's Birthing System Broken? with Elaine Welteroth
Former Teen Vogue editor and Project Runway judge Elaine Welteroth met with eight different doctors when she was pregnant with her first child. She knew Black women were three to four times more likely to die during and after childbirth, and she wanted to feel safe with her doctors. But that never happened. That’s why she chose to use a midwife, a birthing option that could play a pivotal role in solving America’s maternal health crisis. Today, Elaine is here with Chelsea to dispel myths about midwifery and explain how her organization birthFUND is working to make birthing less traumatic and more “transcendent.” Plus, they get into hypnobirthing and pelvic floor therapy.
