Calling Out the BS, Including My Own - 1344

Christina Applegate's MS diagnosis raises difficult questions about medical uncertainty, including a 2019 study that found about 18% of patients referred with an existing MS diagnosis had been misdiagnosed. Chalene Johnson explores Applegate's account on MeSsy with Jamie-Lynn Sigler, the headlines surrounding Selma Blair and why watching stars like Bruce Willis face health struggles feels so personal.

Mel Robbins and Céline Dion spark another uncomfortable question: why is content tearing down successful women so hard to resist? First, Chalene puts her marriage double standards with Bret on trial, from wardrobe approval to dinner rules.

Topics discussed: multiple sclerosis, pseudobulbar affect, ADHD, celebrity aging, misogyny, female friendship, Camp Be More.
