Honest and Fair

I so appreciate this program because the host, Pat Rullo knows how to present a sometimes difficult topic or conversation with unabashed honesty and fairness. Each segment is obviously well researched and then delivered as simply and openly as possible. With healthcare in such a state these days, we need to rethink our choices and feel emboldened to speak up. This show delivers.
