Why Should I Trust You? - Podcast Rankings and reviews

As someone working in public health, this podcast has been so refreshing and helpful in helping me think about how we rebuild trust and have the really difficult but important conversations. It’s fun, lively, entertaining but also serious and full of nuance, something we don’t get enough of in our discussions about health and medicine in the U.S. Essential listening for everyone, but especially those of us who think about these issues every day! Bravo.

Why Should I Trust You is an exceptionally timely and thought-provoking podcast that tackles one of the most pressing issues of our time: the public's growing mistrust in science, especially around vaccines. What sets this series apart is its commitment to exploring why that mistrust exists—without judgment, without preaching, and with a genuine desire to understand all sides.

This podcast doesn’t shy away from tough conversations. It skillfully brings together voices from across the political spectrum—left, right, and everything in between—to dive into the role COVID played in fueling misinformation, the impact of social media, and how science communication has often fallen short. But it doesn't stop at analysis—it offers hope and practical insights on how we might come together to rebuild trust in science so we can move forward together, healthier and more informed.

Each episode is packed with expert insights, thoughtful interviews, and a tone that is both respectful and refreshingly honest. If you're looking for a balanced, deeply informative series that goes beyond the headlines and truly listens to the concerns of everyday people, Why Should I Trust You is a must-listen. It’s not just a podcast—it’s a public service.

This podcast does an excellent job at meeting people where they are and trying to see actually where “both sides” are coming from and why. All in calm voices and with empathy. The episodes with discussion between public health leaders and MAHA leaders are fabulous. Thank you!

Groundbreaking discussion happens here! WSITY is a place to listen and learn. For the MAHA community, this podcast is a rare opportunity to hear nuanced conversation with Public Health leaders which actually address the reasons trust in Public Health institutions has plummeted.
