Out of Patients with Matthew Zachary
Out of Patients with Matthew Zachary
Matthew Zachary is the healthcare policy love child of Jon Stewart, Howard Stern, Thomas Paine, Ralph Nader, and Jerry Seinfeld. He has 19 years of receipts to prove it. Editorially independent. Answerable to no one. What started as The Stupid Cancer Show in 2007 became Out of Patients. The first online health podcast in America, predating the medium itself. Zachary survived brain cancer at 21, built the young adult cancer movement from scratch, and spent two decades channeling patient rage into something the system never saw coming. Now he is marching into Washington. Out of Patients goes where the comfortable shows will not. Politics. Healthcare policy. Economics. Institutional accountability. Consumer protection. The forces shaping what 330 million Americans can access, afford, and survive. Battle-scarred patients. Exhausted caregivers. Rare insiders brave enough to name what is killing us. And the occasional elected official about to find out what an organized patient constituency actually looks like. This is the show that started the conversation America is still not ready to finish.

The Forgivably Canadian Dr. Joe Mikhael, Myeloma, and Justin Trudeau Clickbait

The Forgivably Canadian Dr. Joe Mikhael, Myeloma, and Justin Trudeau Clickbait

On today’s show, Dr. Joseph Mikhael, Professor of Applied Cancer Research at the TGen institute for City of Hope AND the Chief Medical Officer of the International Myeloma Foundation, an incredible nonprofit advocacy and research organization that I’ve been proud to call a partner for many many years. They’re a great group. Joe is one of the most highly coveted and requested subject matter experts and speaks at hundreds of conferences worldwide (when those used to exist) and webinars for the genomic, medical, oncologic, and patient advocate communities. He’s the James Bond – meets – Liam Neeson – meets Jason Bourne – meets – Austin Powers of all the things I just said. His key focus, which fascinates me, is understanding how factors like what country you’re born in, your socioeconomic status, and your genetic predispositions determine whether or not you enter the shit happens store of cancer. He’s also Canadian, but I forgive him. Although he does know Justin Trudeau, so I heard.
