  • Florida (Wo)Man Needs Healthcare: An Invitation to Our Conference!

    Florida (Wo)Man Needs Healthcare: An Invitation to Our Conference!
    Sep 26 2025
    At Healthcare NOW, we’re used to getting push-back from folks who don’t believe in Medicare for All, and we always expect to hear from those folks – but this episode is about something different. When we announced our annual national Medicare for All Strategy Conference is happening this November, we got some push-back – not about our fight for healthcare justice, but about our choice of venue. Some of our supporters were upset that we’re going to be gathering in a Red State – ok, arguably the king of the Red States: Florida. We’ve gotten emails from folks who won’t attend on principle because they refuse to go to (and this is a quote) the “Evil DeSantis State.” So today we’re joined by one of the leaders of Medicare for All Florida to dig into what’s happening in Florida, why we’re heading to the Sunshine State for our conference, and – most importantly – how you can join us this November 22&23rd to bring the fight to Red America. https://www.youtube.com/live/2PU2kuMoaJw?si=Sd1duyLhAXUoeqHG Consider this your official invite to our National Medicare for All Strategy Conference: Find out more and register here!

    Bots, Trolls, & Haters
    Aug 26 2025
    Anyone who’s been on the internet and wants to preserve their sanity knows one, eternal truth: Don’t read the comments section. The comments, as we all know, are where our better angels go to die – where we forget our humanity and type out the ugliest, scariest stuff we were apparently thinking all along? Well, today, against our better judgement, we are going to disregard best practice and dig in to what people are saying in the comments about healthcare. Because how are we ever going to win over the people if we don’t know what the people have to say? We tasked our researcher, Ashley Schultz -- the most chronically online of our followers, with digging through the dregs of the internet, and she’s here to talk about what she found. https://www.youtube.com/live/qsWogMDDbWw?si=exWiYo0B5L5BTVgC Follow & Support the Pod!

  • Health Crisis in Palestine!

    Health Crisis in Palestine!
    Aug 2 2025
    :::CONTENT WARNING::: This episode contains graphic discussions of genocide. Here at the Medicare for All Podcast, we are usually focused on the US, but the fight for universal access to healthcare is one that stretches way beyond our borders. Today we take a global perspective and check in with a group of doctors who are putting their lives on the line to address the serious devastation happening right now in Gaza and its impact on the health of Palestinians living through that devastation. We’re joined by the founders of Doctors Against Genocide to talk about how a political conflict turns into a public health crisis, and what kind of action we can take to stop it. Our guests are Dr. Karameh Hawash-Kuemmerle, a pediatric neurologist in Boston, Massachusetts, and Dr. Nidal Jboor, an internist in Dearborn, Michigan, who together co-founded of Doctors Against Genocide (DAG), “a global coalition of healthcare workers dedicated to succeeding where global governments have failed in confronting Genocide.” https://www.youtube.com/live/sTCSO2kFeA8?si=tCuiVlE3I7Co3HoC Want to support the incredible work of Doctors Against Genocide? Whether or not you're a doctor, you can join DAG and/or donate here! Follow & Support the Pod!
