  4. #842: The Story Behind EpiPen, The Rise of Food Allergies, and What Doctors Got Wrong

This time around, we have an experimental format, featuring the
first episode of a brand-new podcast launching next week,
Drug Story. I rarely feature episodes from
other shows, but I think this one is well worth your time. It
changed how I think about allergies, especially as someone who
carries an EpiPen and has wondered: why on earth have food
allergies seemed to skyrocket in the last few decades?


Drug Story is a podcast that tells the story of
the disease business, one drug at a time. Each episode explores
one disease and one drug, and it kicks off with EpiPen and food
allergies. A quick teaser: What if I told you that a well-meaning
medical recommendation may have caused millions of kids to
develop food allergies?


Make sure to subscribe to Drug Story on Apple Podcasts, Spotify,
or wherever you get your podcasts. You can also simply go to
DrugStory.co and learn more.


The host is Thomas Goetz. He is a senior impact fellow at the
University of California Berkeley School of Public Health, and
much earlier, Thomas was the executive editor at WIRED, which he
led to a dozen National Magazine Awards from 2001 to 2013. His
writing has been repeatedly selected for the Best American
Science Writing and Best Technology Writing anthologies.


P.S. To help you kick off 2026, I recommend
checking out Henry Shukman, a past podcast guest and one of the
few in the world authorized to teach Sanbo Zen. Henry’s app,
The Way, has changed my life. I’ve been using it
daily, often twice a day, and it’s lowered my anxiety more than I
thought possible. For 30 free sessions, just visit
