About this episode
<p>Dander enemies. Gluten intolerances. Runny noses. Shellfish bummers. Skin prick tests. Epipen pockets. Allergies? WE GOT ‘EM, folks. And we’ve got double board-certified allergist, immunologist, and author of the New York Times Bestseller “All About Allergies” Dr. Zachary Rubin. The Doc takes a quick break from his many demanding jobs to let me pepper him with questions about sneezing, allergy shots, Benadryl naps, home testing vs. office visits, oral challenges, unfriendly fruits, street tree sexism, and so much more. We’ve been itching to do this one for a while, so get it in your system ASAP.</p> <p>Follow Dr. Rubin on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/rubin_allergy/?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@rubin_allergy?lang=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">TikTok</a> and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@rubin_allergy" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">YouTube</a></p> <p>Buy his book, <a href="https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/790561/all-about-allergies-by-zachary-rubin-md/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><i>All About Allergies: Everything You Need to Know About Asthma, Food Allergies, Hay Fever and More</i></a> on <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0F9V5Z3GQ?tag=randohouseinc7986-20" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Amazon</a> or <a href="https://bookshop.org/p/books/all-about-allergies-everything-you-need-to-know-about-asthma-food-allergies-hay-fever-and-more-zachary-rubin/a2fea4994be4ecf4?ean=9798217047970&next=t&next=t&affiliate=2186&prhc=PRHEFFDF5A7F1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Bookshop.org</a></p> <p>A donation went to <a href="https://www.redsneakers.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Red Sneakers for Oakley</a></p> <p>More episode sources and links</p> <p>Other episodes you may enjoy: <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/rhinology" rel="noopener noreferrer">Rhinology (NOSES)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/ophthalmology" rel="noopener noreferrer">Ophthalmology (EYES)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/2018/5/7/wdppyiv1wrcs8gchoslvhhuuboanau" rel="noopener noreferrer">Dendrology (TREES)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/phenology" rel="noopener noreferrer">Phenology (FALL/SEASONS)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/fromology" rel="noopener noreferrer">Fromology (CHEESE)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/entomology" rel="noopener noreferrer">Entomology (INSECTS)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/melittology" rel="noopener noreferrer">Melittology (BEES)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/culicidology" rel="noopener noreferrer">Culicidology (MOSQUITOES)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/spheksology" rel="noopener noreferrer">Spheksology (WASPS)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/plumology" rel="noopener noreferrer">Plumology (FEATHERS)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/carobology" rel="noopener noreferrer">Carobology (NOT-CHOCOLATE TREES)</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies-by-topic" rel="noopener noreferrer">400+ Ologies episodes sorted by topic</a></p> <p><a href="https://pod.link/1746567248" rel="noopener noreferrer">Smologies (short, classroom-safe) episodes</a></p> <p><a href="https://alieward.com/ologies-sponsors" rel="noopener noreferrer">Sponsors of Ologies</a></p> <p><a href="https://alieward.com/ologies-extras" rel="noopener noreferrer">Transcripts and bleeped episodes</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.patreon.com/ologies" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Become a patron of Ologies</a> for as little as a buck a month</p> <p><a href="https://www.ologiesmerch.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">OlogiesMerch.com</a> has hats, shirts, hoodies, totes!</p> <p>Follow Ologies on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ologies" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/ologies.bsky.social" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Bluesky</a></p> <p>Follow Alie Ward on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/alieward" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@alie_ologies" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">TikTok</a></p> <p>Editing by Mercedes Maitland of <a href="http://maitlandaudio.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Maitland Audio Productions</a> and <a href="https://www.jecmusic.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Jake Chaffee</a></p> <p>Managing Director: Susan Hale</p> <p>Scheduling Producer: Noel Dilworth</p> <p>Transcripts by Aveline Malek </p> <p>Website by <a href="https://www.kellyrdwyer.com/photo" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Kelly R.
