MASKS & VACCINES & BEARS...OH MY!

Broken Healthcare

Meet Ray’s cousin, Charlie DiMaggio! 🎙️

In this episode of the Broken Healthcare Podcast, Ray Kober sits down with Dr. Charles J. DiMaggio—a brilliant epidemiologist with a wild backstory, including time spent working in the ER of one of New York City’s busiest hospitals as a physician assistant. Charlie has seen it all—emergencies, pandemics, and more than his fair share of medical mayhem. But beyond that, he’s spent years deep in the data, studying public health, injury prevention, and the real-world impact of medicine on people’s lives.

This isn’t your typical dry scientific chat. We’re talking a real, no-nonsense discussion about healthcare, the state of medicine, and of course, the RONA. We dive into:

✔️ What really went down in hospitals during COVID

✔️ The science behind masks – do they actually work?

✔️ The truth about vaccines – separating facts from fear

✔️ The incredible minds behind medicine – why healthcare workers deserve more credit

✔️ How public health decisions get made (and where they go wrong)

Charlie’s been on the front lines and behind the research, so this episode is full of hard-hitting insights, myth-busting, and maybe even a few laughs. Whether you love talking about medicine or just want to understand healthcare without all the noise, this one’s for you.

So buckle up, grab a coffee (or something stronger 🍺), and get ready for a fun, eye-opening conversation that just might change the way you think about public health.
