Knee Deep in Punicillin, Part 2 feat. Guest Dr. Thalia McCann aka @supplementhal

In this episode, we finish our crucial conversation with Dr. Thalia McCann, an infectious disease specialist, about the power of trust and communication—especially for queer patients navigating the medical system. We unpack the impact of anti-science propaganda on public health and why effective science communication is more important than ever.But that’s not all—we also discuss an exciting new project aimed at educating the public about healthcare and supplements, the representation of women and marginalized communities in both medicine and literature, and the need for strong, well-rounded female characters. And because we can’t resist a little fun, we wrap up with a lighthearted chat about cryptids and some of our favorite (and most cringe-worthy) literary tropes.Join us for an episode full of insights, laughs, and just a little bit of Bigfoot talk. 🎙️✨Referenced in this Episode:Sci-Comm Resources from Dr. McCann:Science Literacy Foundation Resource GuideFactCheck.Org’s SciCheck featureScience vs. PseudoscienceWebsites for Fact-CheckingFollow Us:Instagram: @KneeDeepPodcastTikTok: @KneeDeepPodcastCady: @ageofsexplorationSharilyn: @queerwomenspoetrycollectiveSupport Us on Patreon:Help us keep the conversation going by supporting us on Patreon! 🖤 Send Us Your Questions or Comments:We love hearing from you!
