The deep distrust between public health and the Make America Healthy Again movement may seem impossible to heal. But the podcast “Why Should I Trust You?” is trying to do just that by facilitating conversation between people who often view each others as enemies.
Brinda Adhikari and Tom W. Johnson launched “Why Should I Trust You?” in 2025. Since then, they’ve hosted big names from MAHA, the Trump administration, the anti-vaccine movement, and traditional health. They also bring on everyday Americans trying to keep their families healthy while navigating a confusing information ecosystem. “Everyone, when they come on the show, no matter what their quote unquote, expertise, they're all equals. Everyone gets time to speak,” Adhikari said.
On this episode of the “First Opinion Podcast,” host Torie Bosch speaks with Adhikari and Johnson about their show’s goals and the criticism they’ve received from public health and MAHA alike.
