I'm back live today - Wednesday, Oct. 22, 2025.
If you watch TV, you've no doubt been inundated with commercials touting "Medicare Advantage." If you listen to this show, you've heard me tell you, consistently over the years, that Medicare Advantage is neither Medicare nor an advantage.
Wendell Potter returns to the show today. We've spoken often over the years since he first appeared before Congress on June 24, 2009 as the first health insurance industry whistleblower to testify about the corruption built into this system. He's kept up his advocacy for we, the people and what should be our right to affordable, humane health care. Wendell runs the nonprofit Center for Health & Democracy, and as publisher and executive editor of HEALTH CARE un-covered at healthcareuncovered.substack.com.
I always make sure to invite Wendell on around open-enrollment time to help you all navigate the muddy health insurance waters. This year, the waters are not only muddied, they're filled with D'ump's shit too.
