“I have really enjoyed Alex Wagner in replacement of rachel. No concerns with the actual podcast, but it concerns me that the advertisements being played are quackery exploitative medical stuff that disparage mainstream medicine. “Eat this bar to lower your cholesterol in 8 weeks without the dangerous side effects of medication” “try this testosterone supplement” but the fine print is “none of this is validated and talk to your doctor”. So I am a physician and expect this of right wing conspiracy media- it’s exploitative. But I am disappointed that msnbc is using this type of advertising for pseudoscience and non validated supplements that make misleading, oversimplified and sometimes dangerous claims. Dealing with these ads as a doctor with my patients has become the Bain of my existence. Honestly I will stop supporting msnbc podcasts if this is how they choose to fund their shows.
Because to me the content of the podcast includes the podcast and all of the other content the channel chooses to expose its listeners to, I have to say I give the experience 3 stars - 2 knocked down because of this quack advertising.”
