Coming next week: The price of insulin
As we started working on season two of this podcast, there was one topic that seemed like we just had to look at: insulin.
… and I wondered: There are stories about insulin prices everywhere. Would we really have something to add? Something that wasn’t just more of the same? (Enraging, terrifying, depressing.)
Turns out: OH YES WE DO.
And some of it is… hopeful.
We are holding it back a week, so you can take a break for the holiday, come back fresh, and be ready for something epic. See you then.
