#1466 Is Sunscreen A Scam? - David Gillespie

Season 1 Episode 1466 Published 1 year, 10 months ago
Description

The first fifteen minutes of this chat was strangely about our collective experience (David, Tiff and I) with recreational drugs. Let's just say that, as a group, we're not exactly party animals and underwhelming' might be the appropriate adjective. Having said that, Tiff has "pulled a few cones” (whatever that means) in her younger years, so there's that (lol). The more sophisticated part of the conversation focused on how sunscreen came into existence (it's only been around for 76 years), how effective it is (or isn't) for protecting us against cancer, the astounding increase in the incidence of melanoma despite a huge increase in awareness, education and sunscreen use and lots more. *Spoiler alert.. sunscreen isn't a scam (as such) but it might not be the magic pill we thought it was.
