Medical Media Mixer is your go-to health and wellness podcast, shaken with cocktails and stirred with entertainment and media. In this episode, we dive into Grace and Frankie (Season 2, Episodes 1–2) and NBC’s Found (Season 1, Episode 2). From coronary artery disease and heart procedures to agoraphobia, we explore how media opens the door to real medical conversations. And of course, we pair it all with two themed cocktails: the Eclipse of the Heart and The Welcome Home.
