    US v. Skrmetti and the Long History of Youth Transition (Unlocked)

    This episode was originally released for Death Panel patrons on September 23rd. To support the show and help make episodes like this one possible, become a patron at www.patreon.com/deathpanelpod Beatrice and Jules discuss an amicus brief Jules co-authored for the Supreme Court case United States v. Skrmetti, a case heard at the court this week that could have a dramatic impact on young people’s access to medical transition. We talk through the brief and the historical evidence it contains dispelling popular myths that trans kids are new or that transition is itself dangerous, and show that medical transition and youth transition have histories stretching back far further than popular accounts would lead you to believe. Read the brief here: https://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/23/23-477/323955/20240903153746246_23-477tsacAmericanHistoricalAssociation.pdf Find our book Health Communism here: www.versobooks.com/books/4081-health-communism Find Jules' new book, A Short History of Trans Misogyny, here: https://www.versobooks.com/products/3054-a-short-history-of-trans-misogyny As always, support Death Panel at www.patreon.com/deathpanelpod

    The Great Barrington Cabinet Versus the Administrative State (11/27/24)

    Beatrice and Artie discuss the impact that some of Trump's most recent picks to lead major federal agencies will have on the state of welfare programs and healthcare in the US, and why the whole slate of names should be raising as much alarm as Trump's pick of RFK. We walk through how Dr. Oz stands to personally benefit from privatizing Medicare, what anti-vaxxer Dave Weldon could easily do as head of the CDC, why Jay Bhattacharya at NIH and Marty Makary at FDA could harm the future of long covid research, and more.
