Knock Knock, Hi! with the Glaucomfleckens

Glauc Talk: Is an Eye Transplant Actually Possible?


Listen Later

This week, we dig into the surprising shift among voters who once supported private equity in healthcare—and may now be rethinking it. Kristin and I talk through what’s behind that change, plus a major headline about the first-ever eye transplant. And just when things start to feel a little too serious, we lighten it up with a chaotic game that puts our anatomy knowledge (and humility) to the test. Trust me, you’ll want to play along.


Takeaways:

  • Some voters are finally reconsidering their stance on private equity’s role in healthcare—what changed?

  • A groundbreaking eye transplant sparks conversation about what’s medically possible… and what still isn’t.

  • The line between actual anatomy and total nonsense is thinner than you think—especially when you're being timed.

  • Kristin has strong thoughts about “buzzword healthcare policy.”

  • We all need a reminder that it’s okay to laugh at ourselves—even when we’re supposed to know this stuff.
