  • Harmful 2025 Health Trends to Leave Behind (From 2 Doctors)
    Dec 22 2025

    Happy New Year! Ready to make 2026 your healthiest year yet? We are too — but let's be SMART about it. Social media is drowning us in health "advice," and honestly? A lot of it is dangerous. From mouth taping to overconsumption of supplements you don't need, wellness culture has gone off the rails.

    In this episode, Dionne and Maleeha are cutting through the noise. We're calling out the toxic health trends that need to stay in 2025, and celebrating the ones we're bringing into the new year — like finally talking about menopause and remembering that walking is literally free medicine.

  • Spot the Difference: Skin Cancer in Deeper Tones
    Jun 26 2025

    Summer’s here, sun’s out, skin’s out! But with longer, sunnier days comes a greater risk of skin cancer...and yes, that includes people with darker skin tones. Despite the myth that melanin offers full protection, skin cancer can and does affect all shades of skin. Unfortunately, early signs are often missed in people of color, leading to delayed diagnoses and worse outcomes.

    In this episode, we’re joined by Dr. Amarachi Eseonu, a dermatologist specializing in skin cancer, to break down the facts. We’ll talk about prevention, early detection, and treatment across all skin tones, because everyone deserves to be informed and protected.
