Derm and Dumber
Derm and Dumber is what happens when a board-certified dermatologist and her very opinionated husband sit down to unpack skincare, wellness culture, beauty trends, aging, internet nonsense, marriage, parenting, and the questionable things people do in the name of “health.”
Hosted by Brooke Jeffy MD and her husband, this show blends expert dermatology insights with unfiltered conversations, hot takes, relationship banter, and the occasional marital side-eye.
From sunscreen myths and anti-aging treatments to TikTok trends, injectables, longevity, skin health, aesthetics, parenting, and pop culture controversies — nothing is off limits.
Expect expert insight without the sterile medical lecture with evidence-based skincare advice, physician perspectives, funny arguments, relatable chaos, and brutally honest conversations about modern beauty and wellness culture.
Perfect for anyone interested in:

- dermatology
- anti-aging
- longevity
- beauty trends
- aesthetics
- wellness
- parenting
