Relentless Health Value
EP489: Achieving Mission That Is a Path to Margin at a Multispecialty Practice, With Dan Greenleaf

Relentless Health Value

This show today is a continuation of our mission/margin series because I wanted to drag into my investigation here what clinical organizations are up to, especially ones that have brought in professional capital, as they say. For a full transcript of this episode, click here. If you enjoy this podcast, be sure to subscribe to the free weekly newsletter to be a member of the Relentless Tribe. Before I kick in here, let me just remind everyone of a few themes that we have been poking in the eyeballs in the past few months over here at Relentless Health Value. First, patients cannot afford care. Listen to the show with Mark Cuban and Cora Opsahl (EP488) mentioning middle-class wage stagnation. Listen to the show with Merrill Goozner (EP388). Listen to the show with Wayne Jenkins, MD (EP358). It is a crapshoot to get medical care these days. Roll the dice and hope you don't get a bankrupting bill at the end. There's no transparency (or very little) for patients. No accountability or interest from many. Not all but many take no responsibility for their financial impact on their patients or members. And look, I am in no way speaking for the vast majority of doctors or nurses or pharmacists or PAs or even really good administrators or anybody else involved in clinical care. In fact, if you listen to the show with Komal Bajaj, MD (EP458) about how many clinicians do not actually trust their leadership will do right by patients or even the clinicians themselves, then yeah. This is undeniably the broad stroke of this industry we all work in. Many take no responsibility for their financial impact on their patients or members. That is the first theme. Here's the second theme. It's this motto: If you can take it, take as much as you can get. And throwing no shade, but let's just get real about that. Right now, healthcare is an industry just like any other industry. And when I say industry, I mean the tax-exempt so-called nonprofits as much as anybody else. Said another way, corporate healthcare leaders, just like any other business leaders, have every incentive to see prices go up. That is just the way commerce works. Listen to the show with Jonathan Baran (EP483, Part 1), the ones with Kevin Lyons (EP487, Part 1 and Part 2). But what is different than most other commerce endeavors when it comes to healthcare, and Shane Cerone from Kada says this in an upcoming episode, he says, “We don't have a broken healthcare market. In many parts of the country, there is no healthcare market. The market does not exist.” And thus prices can go up like rocket ships, because self-insured employers—and also public plan sponsors a lot of times, like state health plans—are, on the whole, just such unsophisticated buyers, price elasticity is, like, nonexistent. No matter how high the price, plan sponsors still contract for who's ever in the network; and they and their members ante up and pay the price. Many good and maybe not-so-good reasons for this (not getting into them), but net net, the result is a nonmarket. Anyone who wants to debate my corporate healthcare entities or big consolidated healthcare entities act just like any other corporate entity, read the recent Substack by Preston Alexander. It's about hospitals raising capital with bonds. Preston Alexander wrote, “The financial design of the system has turned what should be a largely altruistic service, one designed for public good and societal benefit, and forced it to act like a financial institution.” And so, with those bonds, welcome Wall Street. What do Wall Street bankers think about patient care and access and community health? Oh, they don't think about those things at all. Municipal bond returns, baby. That's it. Bonds are an investment where people who invest in them, returns are expected, just like shareholders who want their dividends. Preston Alexander wrote, “Most larger health systems carry billions (that was a ‘b' back there) in bond liabilities.” It costs money to build buildings and add beds and consolidate, yo; but now they are subject to the same pressures as publicly traded companies. So then I got my hands on Dan Greenleaf, CEO of Duly, a multispecialty group in Chicago. I was absolutely intrigued from the starting gate because Dan told me that mission can actually beget margin in his view, and he even, at Duly, has private equity investors. So, yeah, I was all ears. Dan Greenleaf, who is my guest today, by the way, if you haven't figured that out, told me that because of, but not limited to, the trends above wildly high prices, high premiums, high deductibles, more consolidation, fewer options, scared, confused, and maybe outraged patients—listen to the show with Peter Hayes (EP475)—Dan said that, given this backdrop, actually focusing on mission is a huge competitive advantage. Justina Lehman (EP414) actually also said this in a show from a few years ago. Dan told me, Dan Greenleaf, when you succeed at mission, you can get yourself decent margin these days. So, in this first episode, we will talk about this mission of which Dan Greenleaf speaks; and then in part 2 coming at you next week, we'll get into how that all spells margin. Here's what I thought was super important about this whole mission/margin conversation, and Mick Connors, MD, in a show coming up, also touches on this: To achieve mission, you really have to define what mission means. Ben Schwartz, MD, MBA (EP481) said this, too, in so many words in the show from last summer. And that doesn't mean just have a gloriously well-written Web page, and you just can't have spreadsheets of random quality metrics either. You have to treat the mission like you treat any strategic imperative. You gotta break it down and figure out how you're gonna measure what you're actually doing. Rik Renard (EP427) talked about this one, too. At Duly, which Dan Greenleaf talks about in this episode, the focus is on four quadrants of mission: (1) affordability, (2) access, (3) consumer experience, and (4) quality. In this conversation, Dan emphasizes that achieving these four quadrants reduces friction for patients and clinicians and leads to better care outcomes and financial stability. To be noted with one big fat fluorescent highlighter marker is this: A big part of this mission, in almost each of these quadrants, is about making prices reasonable and predictable and transparent for patients. In today's world, that's what customer experience must include—not just, like, lemon water in the waiting room. That struck me the most. And all this focus on affordability really adds up across the community. In Chicago, lower-cost alternatives to hospital services can save up to $2 billion. That is also with a “b.” And the communities are also healthier. Crazy. Hey, make sure patients and members can afford and have access to quality healthcare, and the community gets healthier. Who would've thought? Dan Greenleaf, CEO of Duly, my guest today, has been in healthcare for 30 years. This podcast is sponsored by Aventria Health Group, but I do just wanna mention that Duly so kindly offered Relentless Health Value some financial support, which we truly, truly appreciate. So, call this episode also sponsored with an assist by Duly. Here's my conversation with Dan Greenleaf, and do come back next week for part 2 like I said earlier. Today we talk mission. Next week we talk margin.

A New Model for Chronic Pain Treatment is Needed: Dr. Jacob Hascalovici, Co-Founder and Medical Director of Bliss Health

“We don't view a person with chronic pain as someone who has a chronic illness and the effect of that is we can't follow patients continuously over prolonged periods of time,” says Dr. Jacob Hascalovici, a neurologist and pain specialist based in New York City.  In co-founding Bliss Health, Dr. Jacob, as he is known, has set out to create a continuous care model for chronic pain treatment that matches the approach taken for patients with diabetes or high blood pressure. The Bliss Health formula includes an initial meeting with a physician that produces a care plan; remote therapeutic monitoring on an ongoing basis; and a monthly meeting with a nurse to review data and determine next steps, including additional appointments with physicians as needed.  All of this occurs via a digital platform which provides a welcome option for patients with mobility issues and can fill gaps in access to specialists, especially in rural areas. Dr. Jacob is also hoping to make chronic pain patents feel respected, which is not always the case in their encounters with the healthcare system. “Because pain is not something that can be seen or measured, oftentimes patients feel marginalized, dismissed and disempowered by providers.” Join Raise the Line host Lindsey Smith for a valuable conversation that also touches on policy changes that could strengthen telemedicine, and has details on the first non-opioid based pain medication to receive FDA approval in over 20 years.Mentioned in this episode:Bliss Health If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

In recent months, public health advocates in the United States have raised concerns about proposed changes to vaccine policy, cuts to food assistance programs, rollbacks of environmental protections and reductions in public health staffing. Chief among them has been Dr. Georges Benjamin who, as executive director of the American Public Health Association (APHA) since 2002, has led national efforts to create a healthier America. Raise the Line host Lindsey Smith recently sat down with Dr. Benjamin to understand more about the current state of public health and explore the path forward, and learned that a top priority for APHA is battling the misinformation that Dr. Benjamin believes is fueling support for many of these changes. “The challenge we have right now is that as a society, we've gone into our little corners and live in our own ecosystems. More people are getting their information from a single source and they're not validating that information to make sure that it's true.” Tune into this thoughtful and timely conversation to hear Dr. Benjamin's advice for curbing the spread of misinformation, how APHA is trying to help people understand the value of public health initiatives, and what the U.S. can learn from other countries about improving public health. Mentioned in this episode:American Public Health Association If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

If you are listening to this prior to October 9, 2025, go to the 32BJ Changing the Playbook on Hospital Prices event, where Mark Cuban will be keynoting. Cora Opsahl will also be speaking, and I will be there listening. For a full transcript of this episode, click here. If you enjoy this podcast, be sure to subscribe to the free weekly newsletter to be a member of the Relentless Tribe. So, trust, simplicity, and a chicken. Yeah, this is where this whole conversation with Mark Cuban and Cora Opsahl winds up. And it is a barnstormer because you know what some really good advice is for anybody trying to do right by patients and taxpayers and plan sponsors? It will take trust. It will take making the complicated as simple as possible. And also if you could pay with a chicken, like in the good old days, that would be messy—I can say with confidence, having grown up in Pennsylvania Dutch country, where there are many, many chickens—but also being able to pay with a chicken could also indicate that healthcare prices are reasonably chicken proportionate and that the doctor-patient relationship is good enough to break bread (or have chicken). That last part is really important, and Cora Opsahl says this at one point in the episode that follows. It doesn't matter how wonderful the transparency or the financing. If the prices are insane and there's no more reasonably priced options in any given market, then yeah. Shane Cerone says in an upcoming show, he says, “We do not have a broken healthcare market. We do not have a healthcare market. There is no market.” Okay … so, you could call this conversation a continuation of the episode with Ann Kempski (EP444), entitled “Two State Healthcare Laws Often Don't Go as Planned.” But it's not just healthcare laws that often don't go as planned. It's some very foundational constructs that we have built the healthcare sector upon that may also not go as planned. The healthcare sector is like a game of pachinko. You chuck an input into the mix, and it will bounce all around into all the perverse incentives and human beings and the non-market that we have. And who the heck knows what is gonna pop out the other side? It's like game theory at its most unpredictable. So, in healthcare, there are many, many examples of when the solution to a problem arguably creates worse problems than the problems the solution was trying to solve for. But we—Mark Cuban, Cora Opsahl, and I—are gonna shake our fists at two such solutions today: high deductible health plans (or just high deductibles in general) and then self-insured employers trying to solve the complexity of the healthcare industry by hiring consultants and middlemen, middle people, and other vendors to navigate the pachinko parlor (that is, our $4.9 trillion healthcare sector) on their behalf. Now, I am not in any way saying the spirit of these two endeavors—high deductibles and hiring consultants and middlemen—weren't wholehearted. They seem just like many other well-intentioned solutions: very logical on their face. What I am saying is there are many ways in the real world for even the most, again, genuine endeavor to turn into a money grab for those so inclined. While at the same time I'm saying all this, I'm also very much saying that there are some amazing consultants and middle folks such as independent third-party administrators, otherwise known as TPAs, and PBMs (pharmacy benefit managers) who are transparent and hold themselves accountable to the fiduciary responsibilities that their clients are held to in real terms—not just in marketing speak with 40 pages of disclaimers following. There are great folks out there, many of whom listen to this podcast and are part of our tribe on the regular. And to you, I say thank you for being here, because it takes all the knowledge and more from every one of the guests featured in these past 487 Relentless Health Value episodes plus treating every day like a school day to make sure that we all are not getting shanked from behind by some innocent-looking contract term that turns out to be anything but. The conversation that follows starts out talking about high deductibles; naturally segues into how third-party intermediaries can actually exacerbate the issues here; then we get into transparency, financing, clinical organizations taking on risk, and the benefits and challenges of direct contracts; then Mark lays out a vision for the future. Okay … I wanna get to this conversation. If you are a new listener here—and you might be because … yeah, Mark Cuban—let me just inform you that this podcast is largely listened to by those who work in the healthcare industry. So, you are going to encounter acronyms. You will also encounter me referencing earlier episodes because surveys say listeners really appreciate these callbacks to go get additional information about any given topic. You can get what amounts to a personalized Master's of Healthcare Administration curriculum if you follow the episode threads long enough. And that was a direct quote from a listener. About the acronyms: They are holy terrors, and we in the healthcare industry are chock-full of them. See the list of acronyms that come up so that you can follow along at home if this is your first day at our rodeo. Also in the show notes is a transcript of this show, along with links to all of the mentioned episodes. Okay … here's my conversation with Mark Cuban, who is Mark Cuban and also CEO and founder of Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drugs. Also, we have Cora Opsahl, who is health fund director of the 32BJ Health Fund and an expert in many things healthcare. Also mentioned in this episode are Shane Cerone; Ann Kempski; Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drugs; 32BJ Health Fund; Preston Alexander; Stanley Schwartz, MD; Elizabeth Mitchell; Kimberly Carleson; Andreas Mang; Jonathan Baran; Claire Brockbank; Dave Chase; Cristin Dickerson, MD; Green Imaging; Kevin Lyons; and Vivian Ho, PhD.   You can learn more at markcubancompanies.com and costplusdrugs.com and follow Mark on LinkedIn, Bluesky, Threads, and X. You can follow Cora on LinkedIn.   Mark Cuban, a native of Pittsburgh, PA; a graduate of Indiana University; and now a Dallas, TX, resident, has always been an entrepreneur. From selling and trading baseball cards, selling garbage bags and magazines door-to-door, to starting a business buying and selling stamps at age 16, there have been few years in his life when he wasn't starting or running a business. He got a job at one of Dallas's first retail software stores, Your Business Software. He spent nine months doing everything from learning how to code, supporting and installing every type of business software, and of course, making sure the store opened on time. That went well until he made the executive decision to turn over the store opening duties to a peer so he could pick up a check for a sale. He was fired. Mark decided it was time to start on his own. The next day, MicroSolutions was founded. Over the next seven years, MicroSolutions became a national leader in Systems Integration and custom applications for local and wide area networks. Growing to 80 employees, never having a losing month of operations and nearly $36M in annualized sales, in 1990, MicroSolutions was sold to CompuServe. At that point Mark “retired” to investing in public and private companies. His knowledge of the networking industry led to success and brought returns of 80% and more each year. Mark purchased the Dallas Mavericks for $285M. The Mavs would have the second-best record in the NBA during his ownership tenure. Mark sold majority control of the Mavs in 2023 but continues to be actively involved with the team. He first appeared as a “Shark” on ABC's Emmy Award–winning hit business show Shark Tank in 2011 and quickly established himself as one of the most popular and tough Sharks, investing millions of dollars in hundreds of small businesses. He's been nominated nine times for an Emmy for Shark Tank. His last appearance on the program was during season 16 in May 2025. In 2019, Mark co-founded costplusdrugs.com. Its launch on January 19, 2022, with transparent pricing and a limited markup, has fundamentally changed the pricing of medications in the United States. Cora Opsahl is the director of the 32BJ Health Fund, a self-insured Taft-Hartley benefit fund that sets comprehensive design parameters to ensure the 200,000 members and families of SEIU 32BJ have easy and sustained access to affordable, high-quality healthcare. Cora has prioritized a data-driven approach, focusing on reducing trend, solving the affordability challenge on behalf of union members, and, most important, keeping members at the center of every decision. Under her leadership, the 32BJ Health Fund has saved more than $35 million annually—which it has reinvested in new and better benefits, including the first fertility benefit for members—by removing NewYork-Presbyterian hospitals and physicians from its network, transitioning to a new pharmacy vendor and pharmacy group purchasing coalition, and establishing an expanded Centers of Excellence program. In 2024, Cora conducted an innovative medical request for proposal, stipulating that all finalists have a signature-ready contract drafted by the 32BJ Health Fund prior to award. As a result, the Fund negotiated an agreement that brought unprecedented visibility and increased accountability to its benefit. In 2025, the Health Fund is focused on direct-contracting opportunities that allow it to carve out key benefits and ensure quality while managing spend. Cora is regarded as an expert in pharmacy benefit management and was recently appointed to the Board of Governors for the National Alliance for Healthcare Purchaser Coalitions and the Purchaser Advisory Council for the National Quality Forum and Joint Commission. She previously worked at Express Scripts, where she held a variety of roles, ranging from Medicare Part D to operations, strategy, and acquisitions. Cora earned an MBA from Saint Louis University.   06:25 What was the original rationale behind high deductibles? 07:38 How high deductibles are creating a class of functionally uninsured people. 09:29 EP482 with Preston Alexander. 10:20 “We're using health insurance as a proxy for healthcare.” —Mark 12:30 How providers are now in the debt collecting business rather than the healthcare business. 12:55 EP486 with Stan Schwartz, MD. 15:16 “We have a fundamental reasonability problem.” —Cora 16:07 EP425 with Marshall Allen. 18:25 Direct contracting versus self-funded employers. 19:27 EP436 with Elizabeth Mitchell. 19:30 EP480 with Kimberly Carleson. 19:33 EP372 with Cora Opsahl. 23:53 Why the current system doesn't allow the accountability that is needed. 24:39 EP452 with Cora Opsahl. 26:34 How direct contracting gives strength back to independent practices that high deductible plans take away. 27:46 Who pays, what's the price, and where does the power lie? 31:24 EP419 with Andreas Mang. 34:45 How it comes down to power and leverage when controlling healthcare costs. 38:13 EP483 (Part 1 and Part 2) with Jonathan Baran. 38:35 Why putting together a network and just buying healthcare—not discounts—is not as difficult as it seems. 40:10 Why we need to stop talking about disruption and start talking about change. 40:56 EP453 with Claire Brockbank. 41:02 EP484 with Dave Chase. 43:07 EP485 with Cristin Dickerson, MD. 44:32 EP487 (Part 1) with Kevin Lyons. 46:34 EP466 with Vivian Ho, PhD. 47:40 Why it's the incentives that are different between American hospitals and hospitals in a single-payer program. 50:25 The main takeaways from the conversation. 51:08 Why you can't fix the problems in healthcare without transparency.   You can learn more at markcubancompanies.com and costplusdrugs.com and follow Mark on LinkedIn, Bluesky, Threads, and X.

“Probably the most exciting thing I've seen in gene therapy over the last ten years is we now have a lot of tools for selective delivery, which will hopefully make treatments more safe and a lot more successful,” says Dr. Jessica Duis, a geneticist and pediatrician focused on the management of individuals with complex, rare disorders. Dr. Duis, who has worked on several gene therapies that are now approved or progressing through the accelerated approval pathway, is currently VP of Clinical Development at GondolaBio, a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing therapeutics for genetic diseases. As you'll learn in this Year of the Zebra episode with host Lindsey Smith, Dr. Duis is encouraged by other recent advances in genetic technology as well, and thinks momentum will grow as breakthrough treatments emerge. “I think we're hopefully going to continue to see companies that are working in rare disease be more successful and really drive how regulators think about making decisions in terms of bringing treatments to patients. I think we're at the tip of the iceberg in terms of the future of truly transformational therapies.”  This wide ranging conversation also explores Dr. Duis' team approach to patient care, her work on clinical endpoints, the importance of patient communities, and her book series, Rare Siblings Stories.Mentioned in this episode:GondolaBioRareDiseaseDocElsevier Healthcare Hub on Rare DiseasesRare Sibling Stories If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

With nearly one in ten newborns in the US requiring care in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, the importance of NICUs has never been more clear. On today's episode of Raise the Line, we're shining a light on the extraordinary world of NICUs with Lindsay Howard, a veteran nurse with over 17 years of experience caring for premature and critically ill infants. She currently works in a Level IV NICU at Children's Memorial Hermann Hospital in Houston, one of the most advanced neonatal units in the country. “We call ourselves ‘the ER of the neonate world' because we're never full. We have to make space no matter what comes in off the street, and at the biggest medical center in the world, we see all the things,” she explains. In this enlightening conversation with host Lindsey Smith, Howard describes how advances in medicine have made it possible to provide more types of care for younger and smaller babies, creating a need for NICU nurses to develop subspecialties. In her case, Howard is on a dedicated team that handles the placement and maintenance of all central line IVs, and has earned certifications in neonatal and pediatric chemotherapy and biotherapies. “We see babies that we may not have seen before being born with cancerous tumors who need chemotherapy to try and eliminate it, or just give them more time with their family.” This is a revealing look inside the workings of a top tier NICU where you'll learn about approaches to care that support healthy neurodevelopment, how clinical staff handle the emotional challenges of the job, and how her own experience as a mother with twins needing NICU care impacted her work.  Mentioned in this episode:Children's Memorial Hermann Hospital If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Episode 274 of The Business Development Podcast brings the inspiring journey of Dr. Juan Salinas, a food scientist, entrepreneur, and natural bodybuilder who defied the odds to create P-nuff Crunch, a plant-based protein snack that won the attention of Mark Cuban on Shark Tank. From his humble beginnings in Honduras to earning a PhD in food science from Rutgers and leading product innovations at Nestlé and Kraft, Dr. Salinas combined scientific expertise with his passion for health to revolutionize the snacking industry. His story highlights the grit, sacrifice, and relentless vision required to bring an innovative idea to life, even when it meant investing his life savings and building his own manufacturing facility.Throughout the conversation, Dr. Salinas shares insights on nutrition, obesity, and the mindset shifts needed to make healthier food choices, while also opening up about the challenges of entrepreneurship. From balancing bodybuilding with creating shelf-stable products, to enduring setbacks and pivots in scaling his company, he reveals the resilience behind every milestone. His Shark Tank experience—preparing in isolation during COVID, boldly negotiating with Cuban, and ultimately securing a deal—underscores the importance of preparation, courage, and belief in your mission. See his Shark Tank win here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wp45o5i7zhE, Check out P-nuff Crunch here: https://www.pnuff.com/Key Takeaways: 1. Your background doesn't define your future—Dr. Salinas came from Honduras with little English and built a career as a PhD food scientist.2. Passion plus expertise creates innovation—combining bodybuilding and food science led him to invent P-nuff Crunch.3. Entrepreneurship requires sacrifice—he invested his life savings and took huge personal risks to build his company.4. Don't wait for permission—big corporations rejected his healthy snack ideas, so he built his own path.5. Manufacturing is a business itself—starting a facility taught him new challenges in HR, compliance, and operations.6. Preparation beats pressure—his Shark Tank success came from 10 days of focus, rehearsing every scenario until he was ready.7. Mindset is everything—he retrained his brain to crave healthier foods, just like quitting smoking.8. Strength training builds more than muscle—it increases metabolism and teaches discipline that carries into business.9. Adaptability keeps you alive—pivoting from “peanut puffs” to “protein puffs” kept his brand competitive.10. Divine timing matters—Mark Cuban's wife had tried P-nuff before the pitch, showing that hard work plus faith creates opportunities.If you listen to The Business Development Podcast, you belong in The Catalyst Club.

What's At Stake In Changes To Medicare and Medicaid: Chiquita Brooks-LaSure, Senior Fellow at The Century Foundation

“When you think about where we were as a country before Medicare and Medicaid were created and where we are now, it's an incredible story,” says Chiquita Brooks-LaSure, who until earlier this year was the administrator for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). In a recent essay for The Century Foundation, where she is now a senior fellow, Brooks-LaSure used the 60th anniversary of enactment of those foundational insurance programs to help put their impact on individual Americans, the healthcare system and society at large in perspective. One prominent example is the desegregation of hospitals, which was achieved in part by withholding reimbursements for care unless facilities served Blacks as well as whites. Another is making it possible for more people with disabilities to live at home instead of in institutional settings. But as you'll hear in this probing Raise the Line conversation with host Lindsey Smith, Brooks-LaSure worries that many gains in coverage and other progress made over the years through Medicare, Medicaid and the Child Health Insurance Program (CHIP) are at risk because of a new federal law that calls for a trillion dollar decrease in spending, resulting in potentially millions of people losing their coverage, cuts to clinical staff and medical services, and the closure of hospitals and clinics, especially in rural areas. “Most rural hospitals in this country are incredibly dependent on both Medicare and Medicaid to keep their doors open and there's an estimate that over 300 hospitals will close as a result of this legislation, so that, I think, is a place of incredible nervousness.” Whether you are a patient, provider, policymaker or health system leader, this is a great opportunity to learn from an expert source about the range of potential impacts that will flow from changes to critically important insurance programs that provide coverage to 40% of adults and nearly 50% of children in the U.S. Mentioned in this episode:The Century FoundationEssay on 60th Anniversary of Medicare & Medicaid If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Instagram sleuths spotted him sharing behind the scenes shots from a newly filmed challenge video said to feature record-breaking stunts, and while YouTube uploads from Mr. Beast's main channel are always events, the rumor mill has been spinning extra hard because Jimmy teased a “secret project” that both fans and creators are speculating could be tied to another global event, perhaps even one-upping last year's full-scale chocolate factory recreation. Business-wise, there's plenty happening. The Wall Street Journal just profiled his growing investments in tech and digital startups, noting that Feastables is now expanding distribution into Latin America. Walmart confirmed in a press release that the flagship chocolate bars will soon hit shelves in Mexico and Brazil. Meanwhile, Forbes reports Jimmy's net worth is up again, mostly thanks to those snack brand deals and some very lucrative partnerships with streaming services who want exclusive content—it's clear that the business world is treating him as much more than just another YouTuber.

Listen to the full episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ThY-UBFtGK8  What if I told you Mark Cuban has invested over $100 million in companies from complete strangers who just sent him an email? In this Fitness Friday episode, I'm sharing insights from my conversation with Mark Cuban about his unconventional investment approach and the incredible companies built from cold outreach. We discuss how Cuban manages 200+ investments with just 12 team members, why he answers every single email personally, and the remarkable stories behind two of his biggest wins: a $4 billion space company and a revolutionary pharmacy that's disrupting Big Pharma. Mark Cuban is a billionaire entrepreneur, owner of the Dallas Mavericks, and star investor on Shark Tank who has built his reputation on being accessible to anyone with a compelling business idea. What we discuss: The $750K Investment That Became Worth "A Whole Lot of Money" at $4B Valuation Why Cuban Reads Every Email and Deletes Most in Under 2 Seconds How He Manages 200 Companies with Only 12 Employees The Cold Email Strategy That Led to Cost Plus Drugs Revolution Behind the Scenes of Shark Tank: Why 75% of His Deals Actually Close The Real Reason Most Shark Tank Entrepreneurs "Ghost" Their Deals How Cuban Turns Alyssa's Cookies Into a $20M Business With Zero Advertising Why He Refuses Meetings But Responds to Strangers' Emails Within Minutes The One Question Every Entrepreneur Must Ask: "Why Didn't I Think of That?"

It seems there are news stories every week about the accelerating pace of innovation in gene therapy, but only about 50 therapies have been approved so far by the US Food and Drug Administration. Our guest today, Dr. Bobby Gaspar, leads a UK-based biotech company, Orchard Therapeutics, that developed one of those treatments using gene-modified stem cells in your blood that self-renew, so a single administration can give you potentially a lifelong effect. “Our approach is about correcting those hematopoietic stem cells and allowing them to give rise to cells that can then correct the disease,” explains Dr. Gaspar.  The therapy in focus is lenmeldy, the first approved treatment for metachromatic leukodystrophy, also known as MLD, a devastating inherited disorder that affects roughly 600 children worldwide. But Dr. Gaspar is optimistic that learnings from Orchard's work on MLD could be useful in treating much more common disorders including frontotemporal dementia, Crohn's disease and others. This highly informative conversation with host Lindsey Smith also explores the importance of newborn screening, community collaboration in advancing clinical trials for rare diseases, and a future in which each gene therapy will be used as a tool for specific applications.  “There will be many gene therapies available, some of which will become the standard of care for certain diseases, but it won't be for every disease.”Mentioned in this episode:Orchard Therapeutics If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Being an independent college admissions advisor opened Julia Dixon's eyes to the industry's unequal playing field, where those who can afford elite support get into elite universities. But she also saw how individual support can be a powerful tool to guide students in the admissions process. Her solution? ESAI (pronounced es-aye-eye), an ethical AI platform that has helped over 550,000 students craft authentic college applications without outsourcing their writing or fabricating experiences. Julia joins host Natalie Pierce in this inaugural episode of Gunderson Dettmer's “FutureWork Playbook” series that spotlights innovators featured on the Forbes 30 Under 30 lists.Tune in to learn about ESAI's meteoric journey – from an idea to a pitch on “Shark Tank” to Mark Cuban's investment – and for insights about democratizing education through technology and personalizing student experiences.Episode HighlightsESAI emerged from Julia's recognition that college admissions consulting has become a $3 billion industry that caters to elite students who can afford high-priced counseling.The ESAI platform goes beyond generic chatbot assistance by prompting students with Gen Z-friendly questions like "What's the rabbit hole you went down on YouTube recently?" to help them discover their values and interests through natural self-discovery.Julia emphasizes that ESAI follows the same ethical guidelines as human tutors: "None of our tools will ever generate an entire essay in the same way that a human tutor should not be writing your entire essay for you."ESAI has reached over 550,000 students and partners with schools, charter networks, and nonprofits to provide free access to underserved communities, addressing the national average of 400 students per guidance counselor.Looking forward, Julia sees AI making education "dynamic" and hyper-personalized, where every school and employer will receive customized versions of applicants' stories tailored to their specific needs and values.

Drug pricing in America is a shell game where patients always lose. Healthcare Bridge host Nathan Kaufman and his guest Richard Helppie pull back the curtain on why Americans pay drastically more for the same medications than patients anywhere else in the world.At the heart of this problem lies a fragmented system where the United States—effectively operating the world's largest health insurance company—somehow lacks the ability to negotiate bulk purchasing deals. While pharmaceutical companies claim high prices fund critical research, the conversation reveals how your money primarily finances the endless parade of drug advertisements dominating television commercial breaks.The journey of a pill from factory to patient passes through multiple profit-extracting entities: manufacturers, wholesalers, and pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs). With three PBMs controlling 80% of drug distribution—all owned by insurance companies—conflicts of interest are baked into the system. Through revealing personal anecdotes, the hosts demonstrate how the same medication can cost $5 with one insurer, $330 with another, yet only $20 through Mark Cuban's pharmacy. Many Americans find it cheaper to purchase medications from Canadian pharmacies despite industry warnings about "dangerous" reimported drugs—even when those medications come from identical manufacturing facilities.Recent policy proposals offer potential paths forward. The Biden administration's efforts to cap Medicare drug expenses met immediate legal challenges from pharmaceutical companies, while Trump's "most favored nation" pricing concept aims to standardize global medication costs. Medicare Part D represents a partial success story by forcing drug companies to negotiate with insurers, maintaining 95% subscriber satisfaction while running 40% below projected costs.Healthcare policy requires informed leadership, but few politicians truly understand the system's complexities. If you or someone you love needs medical care, finding an insider who understands healthcare's nuances isn't just helpful—it could save your life.
