In this powerful episode of The Interesting MD Podcast, Dr. Rob Beck talks with Stephen Marche, author of The Next Civil War and The Last Election, about America’s growing political and social fractures.

They dive into Marche’s research on political violence, institutional decay, and the global warning signs that mirror past societal collapses. From the perspective of a Canadian observer, Marche offers a unique, unsettling view of the U.S.’s trajectory, and what it means for professionals like doctors who are increasingly feeling the impact in their daily lives.

Equal parts analysis and reflection, this conversation explores how instability shapes health, safety, and civic life, and asks: what will it take for real change?
