RomethesecondtimeI can't believe you gave up! You were THE best...And the issues are still with us. Can you come back once in a while?
-
EekSpiderTimely and informativeThanks, guys, for providing this thrice-weekly analysis of the healthcare bill progress. Your discussion of this topic really helped me to understand the many layers of this topic. Will look for future 'casts as the healthcare policy unfolds.
-
stvj.INDon't go! Good, hard data and insightsGreat infos balanced well between the technical insurance, medical industry concerns and the legislative and political spasms. Thanks so much, don't go away til this thing is well and truly dead or .... *shudder* something else happens.

aardvark56Bummer--I Discovered This Show & It Ends?!?!!My decrepit old iPhone 5s just erased my ENTIRE podcast library with 700+ unlistened-to episodes of an unknown number of podcasts so I ventured into Podcast Land in an attempt to find them again--or something. This podcast, on a subject I think is critically important, jumped out at me. After a pretty entertaining and fairly interesting summary of the most recent twists and turns THEY ANNOUNCED THEY'RE ENDING IT!?! The nation has no comprehension of how important the subject of state run "healthcare" (or lack thereof) is. If the ongoing disaster of the VA health care hasn't convinced people (who, for the most part, do not have to use it--which is why they can ignore it) I am almost ready to give up--except I use a LOT of state run "healthcare" already. I know what a NIGHTMARE it is! As a dependent of a military retiree, I am forced to use the military medical system. I've had 9 primary care managers (that is your main doctor through whom you must go to access any care) in the last 18 months. You almost have to have lived it to know what a horror that is. The delay in care pretty much forces you to use the ER or an urgent care clinic for your primary care--something most planners claim they are trying to prevent. The loss of this podcast is so sad. For a moment, I thought there was a was way to keep up with the helter skelter path that our nation seems to have embraced on the way to joining the European model of state run (non)care. If their example isn't enough to keep us from committing medical suicide by joining them, I am almost ready to give up. Goodbye, fellas. I thought for a moment there was hope.

yumiphNecessary listeningKnowledgeable and understandable. A podcast that everyone should listen to.
-
Happy commuter123Incisive and conciseI'm surprised more people haven't rated this great new podcast. I've been reading and listening to Jordan Weissmann for years. He and Jim Newell have good rapport. Highly recommended.
-
Charger101These liberals are dumb...They can't even make up some constructive criticism they are literally just making fun of him every time he takes a piss.
-
GaloopydunnahwantitnowAdded perspectiveImportant source for information on ahca.
-
Mister Stay PuftRequired ListeningWeismann and Newell get right to the point, and boy do they know their stuff. The intricacies of healthcare can make your head explode, but thankfully these fellas will help you navigate it.
-
Etc1073Good if you're worried about healthcare!Especially if you're hopeless with politics!
-
ricardomigoAmazing way to be informedThe podcast does a good job at breaking down what is happening in the house and senate with the ACA and the BCRA. They give enough background for people new to the subject to understand what's going on and but also go deep enough to allow a good learning and analytical experience. You'll definitely notice they are anti-Trump, but I feel they approach data in an objective way. You'll both learn and get quick laughs here and there.
-
pacheenExcellentThe place to get the inside scoop about how republican legislators are going about their mission to replace the ACA. Fascinating.
-
an atlanta, ga pediatricianVery goodBetter than an attempt.... rather a very good summary of the craziness that is going on with the healthcare ... well it is not a debate....that would involve 2 groups actually discussing differences in core beliefs This is a great summary trying to encapsulate the NONdebate the GOP is trying to ram down Americans throats with no regard to health care policy Many will find it biased or one sided.....it is not... the problem is trying to find GOP representatives who can support or comment on the policy goals of Trumpcare. As there are none, it is impossible to give "balanced" reporting. That is not a ding against the podcast, that is a ding against the process
-
AlidaLauraGreat!I feel much more informed after each episode. Really is a fantastic pod.
-
joepatriceGetting past the cable news soundbytesCable news is an exchange of -- often dumb -- talking points. This show goes deeper and digs into the nuts and bolts of this legislation and the political calculations Senators have to make about it. Great show.
-
teacup23Well Done, Interesting, and ImportantSo glad you are doing this podcast! Jordan--you are a great host.
-
ggosyGreat podcast!Thanks for taking the time to talk this thru!

iCloud StrifeGarbageNothing but a bunch of biased garbage.

-
kblackwGives me insight into TrumpcareHelps me understand what's going on with this health care disaster. Jordan and Jim provide good coverage of the many aspect of this proposed legislation.
-
CrabbieLeslieWonky but UnderstandableReally short (thank you) but packed with great up-to-the-minute info. Although there is also a political component, I really appreciate the podcasters' ability to explain complicated healthcare policy in an understandable way.
-
R MelvinWorthwhileRelatively brief, well-explained information about what might be going on in secret to determine the future of my family's health, well-being, and solvency.
-
fi_gauDefeating GOP hijinxGreat discussion of what is happening with the Trumpcare legislation. Dont let the lack of MSM coverage lull you into submission. This podcast will keep you informed!
-
Mab992317The Best Way to Track TrumpcareSince the Senate is not telling us anything about the proposed American Health Care Act, Jordan Weissman and Jim Newell are our best hope for understanding what is happening on Capitol Hill. This podcast is definitely worth a listen!
-
Drumpfh8rNice work jim newell and Jordan WeismannLove this the format is great you are doing a great job making this subject intelligible in bite sized audio
-
thai_cookieWe need more!!!I hate that so many podcasts have popped up that are about Trump but I love this one and the others for informing the public of this President and his term. We need to stay up to date on what he and his are doing and trying to pull over the American people.
-
MollymebImportant!This podcast is one of the great things about podcasts. It is a podcast tailored to the emergency need for any information at all about Congress trying to pass a healthcare bill behind closed doors. I encourage everyone to listen.
