Since I've received and answered questions via email concerning podcast interviews and related health care policy questions over the past eight years, I thought it might be it might be useful to attempt answering listeners via a podcast program. This podcast addresses questions I received via my solicitation a few months ago. Joe DiLauro, the gentleman whom introduces the podcast and thanks listeners after each interview, and moreover my audio engineer, poses the questions.
During Part II of this discussion, 24 minutes length , I address questions concerning differences between the two presidential candidates, expectations for the next Congress, the relationship between economic inequality and health, additional comments regarding the climate crisis, what I've learned over the course of 200 plus podcast interviews and advice I'd give those interested in pursuing a health care policy career. Part I of this conversation was posted May 27th.
