$150 for 15 minutes, part 1

In Quebec, family medicine is the latest troubling frontier in a two-tier system that's been quietly growing for years. Dr. Brian Goldman visits Clinique Santé Plus in Vaudreuil to learn why the clinic's youngest doctor turned away from the public system. Two patients - one languishing on a waitlist for a family doctor, and one who can never reach hers - explain why $150 is worth 15 minutes with a private family doctor.

Psilocybin and accepting death

Pete Pearson, 74, is not ready to die. He was diagnosed six years ago with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, which has an average survival rate of 2-3 years after diagnosis. He knows he's on borrowed time, and has been dealing with anxiety and depression.

White Coat, Black Art Introduces | Uncover: Bad Results

They needed certainty. They got chaos. For over a decade, countless people from at least five different countries put their trust in a company offering prenatal paternity tests. It promised clients “99.9% accuracy” — but then routinely, for over a decade, identified the wrong biological fathers. Investigative journalists Jorge Barrera and Rachel Houlihan track down the people whose lives were torn apart by these bad results, the shattered families and acrimonious court cases that followed, and the story behind the company that continues to stand by its testing and is still operating today.

Important, Enlightening Podcast - Distracting Music

2021/05/09

I love the topics, interviews and perspective and value system of this podcast. Thank you for talking to people in community who get a chance to have their voices and viewpoint heard. One note, after Dawna Dingwall, the producer, recently left, there seems to be a shift to more cheesy music or sound effects that can be a bit distracting
What an amazing show!
