Podcasts about Mehmet Oz

Dr. Mehmet Oz, former TV host and Pennsylvania Senate candidate, is one of America's most famous physicians. Now he's running the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, which means he's in charge of programs that provide health care for about half of all Americans. He sits down with White House Bureau Chief Dasha Burns to discuss potential Medicaid cuts, his big plans to lower drug pricing, why he's fielding early morning phone calls from President Trump, and his advice to patients to “be curious” about their health.  Plus, Burns is joined by senior political columnist and politics bureau chief Jonathan Martin to discuss his juicy column about the Ohio governor's race featuring Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy and former Ohio State football coach Jim Tressel. And senior legal affairs reporter Kyle Cheney joins to discuss the showdown between Trump and the courts over his “Liberation Day” tariffs.  Learn more about your ad choices.

A Note from James:So Dr. Oz—television personality turned government official—this is such an interesting thing. He's going to be the new administrator of the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services, CMS. He's going to be in charge of all Medicare and Medicaid. What does he know or think about these parts of our government?Medicare and Medicaid, combined with Social Security, make up the biggest part of government spending. So it'd be interesting to know what he thinks. On his show, he'd talk about everything from medicine to alternative medicine to other healing methods. I want to know how he's going to handle things in the government.This is a republishing of a past podcast I did with Dr. Oz, but it still describes his approach to medicine. And I think, as a citizen, this is useful. That's why I wanted to share it again. He's going to be working closely with RFK Jr. and Marty Makary (who's also been on this podcast and is now head of the FDA).So here's Dr. Oz.Episode Description:In this re-released conversation, James speaks with Dr. Mehmet Oz about his philosophy on medicine, self-care, and the critical role nutrition plays in overall well-being.

Den omstridde läkaren Mehmet Oz blev känd genom sin medverkan i Oprah Winfreys talkshow och gick sedan vidare till sitt eget tv-program, där han anklagats för att sprida felaktig information och ägna sig åt pyramidspel.

In this episode, Scott Becker covers seven major healthcare stories, from layoffs at Washington Health System and Penn Medicine to policy changes, hospital consolidations, and leadership updates—including Dr. Mehmet Oz's CMS confirmation progress.

The Senate Finance Committee just advanced the nomination of Dr. Mehmet Oz to lead the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), bringing his confirmation one step closer to reality. In this bonus episode, Jen Taylor-Skinner is joined by Nourbese Flint, president of All* Above All, for a critical conversation about what's at stake. CMS oversees vital programs like Medicare, Medicaid, and the Affordable Care Act—making its leadership role one of the most powerful in shaping national healthcare policy. Dr. Oz, widely known for promoting unscientific treatments and holding controversial views, raises serious concerns—particularly for reproductive justice and the health of marginalized communities. Nourbese shares her perspective on the qualifications this role demands and reflects on the legacy of past CMS leaders, such as Chiquita Brooks-LaSure. We discuss the broader implications of Dr. Oz's potential confirmation, including its impact on maternal health and the risks posed to vulnerable populations. Our conversation also explores the importance of grassroots resistance and political engagement in holding policymakers accountable. Nourbese offers strategies for community action and underscores why staying informed and involved is more important than ever. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It's Friday, March 21st, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus 1,300 people killed in Syria last week More than 1,300 people, mostly civilians, have been killed in the past week in Syria, reports Open Doors. The BBC reported that a UK-based monitor has identified that “830 civilians were killed in ‘massacres' targeting Alawites on the west coast on Friday and Saturday.” Based in the Middle East, the Alawites are a sect of Islam that venerates a Muslim imam known as Ali. Former Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, known for his brutal dictatorship, is an Alawite himself, as was his father. The recent violence began with pro-Assad forces who attacked soldiers associated with the new government of Syria. Isaiah 59:7 says, “Their feet rush into sin; they are swift to shed innocent blood. They pursue evil schemes; acts of violence mark their ways.” Although the violence doesn't seem to be targeting Syrian Christians, followers of Jesus are scared in the midst of the violence. That's why on Sunday, March 9, many churches did not hold their Sunday services. Trump dismantles Department of Education President Donald Trump signed an executive order Thursday directing Education Secretary Linda McMahon to start dismantling the Department of Education. TRUMP: “Today we take a very historic action that was 45 years in the making. In a few moments, I will sign an Executive Order to begin eliminating the Federal Department of Education once and for all. (applause) Everybody knows it's right.” Immediately after the signing, Republican Senator Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, the chair of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, said in a post on X that he will “submit legislation” to accomplish Trump's goal of shutting down the Department of Education “as soon as possible.” Attorney General Pam Bondi investigating Tesla attacks as terrorism On Tuesday morning, five Tesla vehicles were set on fire in Las Vegas with Molotov cocktails and shot with a gun at a Tesla Collision Center.  That was the tenth such attack on Teslas since Trump's inauguration on January 20th, reports Fox News.  The Left has also violently targeted Teslas or Tesla dealerships in Salem, Oregon, Loveland, Colorado, Owings Mills, Maryland, Littleton, Massachusetts, Tigard, Oregon, North Charlston, South Carolina, Seattle, Washington, Dedham, Massachusetts, and Kansas City, Missouri. Attorney General Pam Bondi called the recent spate of arson attacks and vandalism against Tesla vehicles "nothing short of domestic terrorism" and promised harsh punishments for perpetrators if they are caught, reports ABC News. There's been a clear uptick in attacks on Teslas and Tesla dealerships since President Donald Trump took office and empowered Elon Musk to oversee a new Department of Government Efficiency that's slashing government spending. Appearing on Fox News, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was direct. LEAVITT: “President Trump condemns this violence. He is determined to restore law and order in our country, and he will ensure that the harshest penalties are pursued for those who are engaging in this vicious violence that we have seen targeted at this American company, Tesla, dealerships, Tesla employees and also innocent Americans who have chosen to drive these vehicles, many of them, ironically, are likely Democrats. “There is a major double standard here. The Democrats used to be the greatest cheerleaders for electric vehicles and for Tesla, the company, until Elon Musk decided to support and vote for Donald Trump. “So, the Trump Derangement Syndrome from the Left is on true display with these attacks. It is getting dangerous, and the White House wholeheartedly condemns it, and we applaud Attorney General Pam Bondi for investigating these acts as domestic terrorism, because that is what they are.” Will Dr. Oz support abortion and transgenderism now? Senate confirmation proceedings are underway for Dr. Mehmet Oz, President Donald Trump's choice for Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services administrator. Republican Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri is seeking answers about the TV personality's past liberal stances on abortion and transgender issues, reports LifeSiteNews.com. As recently as 2019, Oz had attacked abortion bans because he disputed that the heartbeat begins at six weeks gestation despite scientific proof. Appearing on The Breakfast Club radio show, Oz also indicated that fetal viability was the only reasonable benchmark for gestational protection. OZ: “If the child was viable outside the womb, then you don't want to kill that child. If the child was not going to be able to survive outside the mom, then the mom runs the show. This is a hard issue for everybody. I get it. But just being logical about it, if you think that the moment of conception, you've got a life, then why would you even wait six weeks?” Later, Dr. Oz made this remark. OZ: “If someone, deep in their heart, feels that the moment of conception is a human life, and they just can't deal with that life being harmed, they got to be heard. They can't get ignored. But that doesn't mean that's what the rule of the land is.” Plus, in 2010, Oz emerged as a critical, early backer of “transitioning” gender-confused minors, running an hour-long special about “transgender children” that promoted a 15-year-old girl who had undergone a double mastectomy at age 14 and an eight-year-old boy being raised as a girl named “Josie.” Over the course of his 2022 Senatorial campaign, Oz backtracked on both issues, declaring himself “100% Pro-Life” and denying that he supported transitioning minors, claiming that his hosting of the opposite position did not constitute endorsement. Steve Lawson: “I have sinned grievously.” And finally, former Pastor Steven Lawson, age 73, a prominent figure in the Reformed/Calvinist movement, has acknowledged that he has “sinned grievously,” speaking out for the first time about the September 20th scandal that removed him from ministry, reports The Christian Post.  Once a teaching fellow at Ligonier Ministries and the dean of Doctor of Ministry Studies at The Master's Seminary, Lawson, a married man, allegedly had a 5-year affair with a woman in her late 20s. In a series of now-deleted X posts, Phil Johnson, Director of Grace to You with John MacArthur, said last September that Lawson only informed the elders at Trinity Bible Church after "the girl's father had confronted Steve and threatened exposure. This was not a noble confession.” In an X post this past Wednesday, Lawson wrote: “I have sinned grievously against the Lord, against my wife, my family, and against countless numbers of you by having a sinful relationship with a woman not my wife. I am deeply broken that I have betrayed and deceived my wife, devastated my children, brought shame to the name of Christ, reproach upon His church, and harm to many ministries.” Lawson added, “I have been undergoing extensive counseling for the last five months to face the hard questions I need to address. I have dealt with sin issues that have been painfully exposed in my heart. I have submitted myself in weekly accountability to two pastors and to the elders of a local congregation, who have shepherded my soul.” 1 Timothy 3:1-2 says, “Whoever aspires to be an overseer desires a noble task. Now the overseer is to be above reproach, faithful to his wife, temperate, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Friday, March 21st, in the year of our Lord 2025. Subscribe by Amazon Music or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

Mehmet Oz is President Donald Trump's pick to lead the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, a massive agency that oversees health coverage for more than 100 million Americans, including older adults, those with low incomes and children. Oz is a cardiothoracic surgeon and former professor at Columbia University who became a household name when he started appearing on “The Oprah Winfrey Show” in 2004 and then hosted his own show, “The Dr. Oz Show,” from 2009 to 2022. On Friday, Oz will face federal lawmakers in a Senate hearing as he seeks confirmation to run CMS, an agency that has a more than trillion-dollar budget and could face spending cuts in the budget year ahead. Today on “Post Reports,” health accountability reporter Lauren Weber explains why he may face questions about his past, his investments and possible conflicts of interest.Today's show was produced by Elana Gordon.

À l'occasion de l'investiture de la nouvelle administration américaine, nous nous interrogeons sur son impact dans le domaine de la santé. Pendant son premier mandat, Donald Trump a tenté à plusieurs reprises de démanteler l'Obamacare (the Affordable Care Act : cette réforme élargissant la couverture maladie à 20 millions de personnes supplémentaires) ; tentatives repoussées à deux reprises par la Cour Suprême des États-Unis. Pendant la campagne pour sa réélection, le candidat Trump a rappelé son souhait de transformer ce dispositif emblématique. Le retour de Donald Trump à la Maison Blanche a été précédé par la désignation de personnalités au parcours équivoque, pour gérer la santé des Américains : l'antivax conspirationniste Robert F Kennedy Jr, ministre de la Santé et Mehmet Oz, un chirurgien célèbre pour ses prestations à la télé, pilotera quant à lui le programme public d'assurance-maladie. Un autre républicain antivax, Dave Weldon est quant à lui désigné à la tête du prestigieux CDC, l'Agence fédérale de prévention des maladies.Sur le plan international, l'arrivée de cette administration réactionnaire suscite également des inquiétudes parmi les acteurs de la santé mondiale. Financement de l'OMS, programmes de financements en matière de santé reproductive, d'accompagnement du changement climatique et de lutte contre les pandémies…  Pays à ressources limitées, O.N.G. et institutions internationales vont devoir composer avec les nouvelles orientations des États-Unis, qui avaient alloué en 2022, plus de 9 milliards de dollars aux programmes de santé mondiale.  Victor Rodwin, professeur de Gestion et des Politiques de santé à la Wagner School of Public Service, New York University Anne-Claire Amprou, ambassadrice pour la Santé mondiale Pr Antoine Flahault, épidémiologiste, professeur de Santé publique à l'Université de Genève et directeur de l'Institut de santé globale à la Faculté de Médecine de l'Université de Genève Guillaume Naudin, envoyé spécial permanent à Washington chez RFI. Programmation musicale :► Harry Styles – Medicine► Irma – House of cards.

Incoming President Donald Trump has picked TV celebrity Dr. Mehmet Oz to lead the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).

Dr. Oz has been making headlines again – but not for a scam. Now that he's been tapped to run the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, we're revisiting how this former TV doctor survived scandal and shifted into politics. In the mid-90s, Dr. Mehmet Oz is a rock star surgeon with a reputation for performing on high-profile clients. He eventually scores his own television show, and soon he becomes daytime television royalty. Oprah even dubs him “America's doctor.” But his drive for stardom has him hawking questionable products, mostly related to weight loss. When his medical reputation is up in the air, he does what past-their-prime reality stars do best: he pivots to politics.

Host Sean Claiborne, U.S. Army National Guard Veteran, sits down with Darius Tahir, KFF Health News Correspondent, to discuss Tahir's article on Dr. Mehmet Oz's investments in healthcare-related businesses and the potential conflicts of interest if Oz assumes leadership of Medicare and Medicaid. Explore the implications of these investments, the privatization of Medicare, and the broader political and ethical questions surrounding the Trump administration's health policy appointments.

President-elect Donald Trump has named a number of high-profile individuals to lead federal healthcare agencies. These include Robert F. Kennedy Jr. To lead the Department of Health and Human Services, and Dr. Mehmet Oz to lead the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. On today's episode, host J. Carlisle Larsen speaks with POLITICO's Ben Leonard to talk more about his healthcare choices, their chances of getting confirmed by the Senate, and what his picks could signal about his second administration's priorities. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This election felt like the peak of the TV-ification of politics. There's Trump, of course, who rose to national prominence as a reality-TV character and is a master of visual stagecraft. And while Trump's cabinet picks in his first term were described as out of central casting, this time he wants to staff some positions directly from the worlds of TV and entertainment: Pete Hegseth, his choice to run the Pentagon, was a host on “Fox and Friends Weekend”; his proposed education secretary, Linda McMahon, was the former C.E.O. of W.W.E.; Mehmet Oz, star of the long-running “The Dr. Oz Show,” is his pick to run Medicare and Medicaid; and he's tapped Elon Musk, one of the most powerful figures in American culture, to lead a government efficiency effort. Two years ago, we released an episode that helps explain why politics and entertainment are converging like this. It's with my old Vox colleague Sean Illing, host of “The Gray Area,” looking at the work of two media theorists, Marshall McLuhan and Neil Postman, who uncannily predicted what we're seeing now decades ago.And so I wanted to share this episode again now, because it's really worth stepping back and looking at this moment through the lens of the media that's shaping it. In his book “The Paradox of Democracy,” Illing and his co-author, Zac Gershberg, put it this way: “It's better to think of democracy less as a government type and more as an open communicative culture.” So what does our communicative culture — our fragmented mix of cable news, X, TikTok, YouTube, WhatsApp and podcasts — mean for our democracy? This episode contains strong language.Mentioned:“‘Flood the zone with shit': How misinformation overwhelmed our democracy” by Sean Illing“Quantifying partisan news diets in Web and TV audiences” by Daniel Muise, Homa Hosseinmardi, Baird Howland, Markus Mobius, David Rothschild and Duncan J.

Bill talks with the well-respected Health Policy reporter Sandhya Raman of CQ-Roll Call to get a sense of what Trump's nominees in the health field means for our health and healthcare. There are serious concerns raised by leading health professionals about Donald Trump's nominations to lead major health agencies, including the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and others. The main concerns are that many of Trump's nominees lack prior experience in public health or healthcare policy, and some have controversial views on issues like vaccines and reproductive rights that could jeopardize public health. In particular, the nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as HHS Secretary is highly controversial, as he is a well-known anti-vaxxer who could slow down the approval and distribution of vaccines, putting public health at risk. Other concerning nominees include Dr. Mehmet Oz for Medicare/Medicaid, and Dr. David Weldon for the CDC, who have expressed skepticism about vaccines and abortion rights. There are some guardrails that Congress could try to use to block or limit the ability of these nominees to implement harmful policies, but with a Republican trifecta in Washington, their options may be limited. Overall, the transcript suggests that the health of the nation could be in jeopardy under the Trump administration's health policy team, with potential impacts on vaccine distribution, maternal mortality rates, and access to reproductive healthcare.Today's Bill Press Pod is supported by National Nurses United, the largest labor union of Nurses in America.

Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan of The New York Times report: “The president-elect is taking a flood-the-zone approach to his cabinet nominations, betting that the Senate won't dare to turn them all down…In his private conversations over the past few days, President-elect Donald J. Trump has admitted that his besieged choice for attorney general, Matt Gaetz, has less than even odds of being confirmed by the Senate. But Mr. Trump has shown no sign of withdrawing the nomination, which speaks volumes about his mind-set as he staffs his second administration. He is making calls on Mr. Gaetz's behalf, and he remains confident that even if Mr. Gaetz does not make it, the standard for an acceptable candidate will have shifted so much that the Senate may simply approve his other nominees who have appalled much of Washington.” You can read the full article here: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/18/us/politics/trump-cabinet.html 3:55pm- On Tuesday, FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell testified during a House Oversight and Accountability Committee hearing.
