Cleveland's smoking rate was double the national average — and it wasn't an accident. Tobacco companies targeted Black neighborhoods, low-income communities, and youth with free menthol cigarettes as smoking dropped everywhere else. Dr. David Margolius spent years watching the fallout as a primary care physician before taking that fight to Cleveland's Department of Public Health. The result: smoking rates cut nearly in half, lead poisoning down by a third. He and Dr. Huntley talk about what it actually takes to move numbers like that — and why public health has to stop working in the shadows.

A sidewalk. A nine-hour ER wait. Two very different stories, one question: what does "public health" actually mean? Oluoma Eze and Savaiz Siddiqui join Dr. Huntley to unpack the parts of healthcare nobody explains well — the housing, the waiting rooms, the policy decisions made about us, usually without us. Real stories. No jargon. Just a better way to talk about the system that shapes our lives long before we ever see a doctor.

Public health rarely looks the way people expect. It shows up in a hospital pharmacy trying to help a patient afford insulin. It shows up on a highway where a transportation safety lead is tracking who gets left out of the data. It shows up in a Nigerian medical school, where a young physician starts asking bigger questions about mental health policy. In this episode, Dr. Huntley brings together three professionals with three very different lenses for one conversation about a shared mission.

Can a parish really become missionary? What if the answer begins with just one transformed life? If you're longing to see your parish become a place where people truly encounter Jesus, this conversation will encourage and challenge you.

In this episode, you'll hear two remarkable testimonies that answer those questions—not with theories or strategies, but with lived experience.
What does the national debt have to do with your health? More than most people think. In this episode, Dr. Huntley sits down with Dr. Kasie Whitener, a radio host, business professor, entrepreneur, and the current Libertarian Party nominee for U.S. Senate in South Carolina. Dr. Whitener brings a perspective that is rarely heard in public health spaces, and this conversation is all the better for it. Dr. Whitener is not a career politician. She is a researcher, an educator, and a community builder who sees public health as deeply connected to the fiscal decisions made at the federal level. Her motivation is straightforward: every policy issue, at its core, is a funding issue.

What does it take to break your silence in the middle of a public health crisis? For Dr. Elizabeth Soda, the answer came on an ordinary August afternoon when a gunman opened fire on CDC headquarters.

Elizabeth speaks openly about what life inside CDC felt like and how dramatically that changed, the personal and professional reckoning that led to her resignation, and how she is channeling grief, anger, and passion into advocacy on a global stage.
