  • Has potential but needs work

    Robert reads his answers in a bit robotic cadence. Also Robert needs to stop pushing vaccines left and right.

  • Tough Listen

    While the content and guests can be interesting and informative, the (very) obvious scripting of the interactions (and poor presentation) is an auditory nightmare. Try a natural conversation with talking points.

    Also, for the sake of all of us, Robert Pearl does not have to refer to “Jeremy” with the beginning of each thought. It’s just the two of them talking, he doesn’t have to remind us who that one person is in. Every. Single. Sentence.

  • It sounds like a teacher reading to the class🥴

    The content and topics are on point, but its so clear they’re reading from scripts. Hard to listen to. Totally ruins it for me

  • Too scripted

    This is painful to listen to, they sound so scripted! It doesn’t sound like a real conversation. Also it wouldn’t hurt them to find women to be on the show!

  • Fools Erand

    Interesting discussions of the current problems with the USA healthcare system. However, as a retired physician with 30 years experience, I don’t believe there is a solution. There are too many stakeholders with their own self serving agendas. Any attempts will be sabotaged.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

FHC #209: What the AMA’s new CEO is hearing from doctors & patients right now
Q: What are the three biggest issues doctors are hearing right now?
The guests identify Medicaid and Medicare structure and incentives, the integration and payment for digital health and AI, and the balance between different payment models and physician autonomy as the top concerns driving conversations in medicine today.
MTT #104: TrumpRx, rising measles cases & the politics of vaccine science
Q: Why might mRNA vaccine research face political obstacles, according to the discussion?
The discussion argues that leadership under RFK Jr. at HHS and political opposition to vaccines have led to funding cuts and cancellations of vaccine projects, creating a chilling effect that could slow the development of critical mRNA technologies.
MTT #104: TrumpRx, rising measles cases & the politics of vaccine science
Q: What is the predicted impact of the new health care legislation on medical practice, particularly telemedicine and hospital-at-home programs?
The hosts suggest the bill will be a series of first steps with limited long-term impact, especially since there is no comprehensive long-term plan; telemedicine and hospital-at-home could stabilize temporarily, but broader incentives and reimbursement alignment are still uncertain.
MTT #104: TrumpRx, rising measles cases & the politics of vaccine science
Q: What is happening nationally with trust after the CDC changes vaccine guidelines?
Trust in the CDC has fallen sharply since the vaccine guideline changes, with polls showing less than half of people trusting the agency, driven by concerns about which vaccines are recommended and the evolving nature of guidance.
FHC #207: Three major healthcare threats GenAI can help solve
Q: What is the final threat if we wait for an economic crisis to address today's challenges?
Waiting could lead to a severe misalignment between training and the future of medicine, with many clinicians trained for a system that no longer exists and with escalating costs that outpace growth, making reform far more difficult later.
