1/27/26 11AM: Misinformation, Measles, and Music

from The Truth with Sherwin Hughes · host Sherwin Hughes

In Hour 3, Sherwin breaks down the return of whole milk in schools and warns that health messaging tied to RFK is doing more harm than good. He calls out vaccine misinformation, connects it to the first confirmed measles case in Wisconsin, and explains why one reported case likely means many more infections already exist. Al calls in to expand on measles symptoms and the serious risks involved. The tone lightens as Sherwin jokes about selling “protest kits,” messes with callers trying to win the Gruber giveaway, and takes a call from Bob while reflecting on the importance of community and togetherness. The hour wraps on a cultural note, with Sherwin declaring the disco era the best musical period for Black artists and breaking down how different eras of hip-hop shaped the culture.
