Nothing fancy today, just some traditional Q and A to round out the week. Of course, I only picked controversial and divisive topics, oh wait, not even close.

I did actually cover:

-Tandem Skydiving Fatality in Tennessee

-How to have hard conversations about money with your spouse?

-Why do I keep going back to the same woman?

-How do you manage problems you can't solve on your own?

Enjoy

Brigham Buhler is a healthcare entrepreneur transforming America's broken system. As founder of Ways2Well, owner of Revive Rx Pharmacy, and an investor in psychedelic research, he champions a model of care that prioritizes patients over profits through preventative medicine, transparency, and innovation. His work is guided by a few core convictions:

-Former insider's perspective: With deep experience navigating the corrupt systems of pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs), insurance companies, and the FDA, Brigham knows firsthand how the system is stacked against patients.

-Uncompromising advocate: He pushes to expose and dismantle the corporate capture of American healthcare.

-Bold truth-teller: He believes in revealing the realities of the insurance Ponzi scheme and providing practical ways to bypass outdated systems.

-Relentless reformer: He is dedicated to replacing a model that profits off sickness with one centered on health, longevity, and patient empowerment.

I never know where these episodes will lead us, mostly because young Michael is in charge, and half of the time, he shows up unprepared. I would love to say today was all laughs, but we covered a few heavy topics before moving to some lighter material.

-Michael's generation's response to the Charlie Kirk Murder

-Insurance companies developing Ai tools to assess patient risk and cost

-Michael's thoughts on the proper usage of claymores

Some days, I don't have the words to describe how I am feeling. This past week, it has been tough to wrap my head around what happened, let alone to parse together my thoughts into any semblance of a coherent thought.

I believe we are not too far gone to recover, but I also believe both sides have blood on their hands. I did the best I could to explain how I feel. Enjoy, disregard, up to you.
