Sky-high insurance premiums. Surprise medical bills. Drug prices that keep going up. Why does healthcare in America cost so much — and how did we end up here? Dr. Cedric Jamie Rutland, a critical care physician and BuzzRx Medical Advisor, joins Mosheh for a wide-ranging conversation that breaks down the real reasons healthcare is so expensive in the U.S. They explore how pharmacy benefit managers quietly shape what you pay, the unintended consequences of the Affordable Care Act, and why insurance coverage often feels arbitrary. Then, a deep dive into GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy: how they work, what they actually do to your body, and whether they're the future of weight loss and preventative care. Dr. Rutland also shares why having insurance — even if you're healthy — still matters more than many realize.

Marly Surena-Llorens was born and raised in the U.S., but her Haitian mother's stories of tropical gardens filled with palms, crotons, and bougainvillea plants inspired her lifelong love of flowers.

On this week's episode of Local Legends, Martin is joined by the hosts of the Eerie Essex podcast, Ailsa Clarke and Bethan Briggs-Miller!Ailsa and Bethan have been at this here podcasting malarkey since the pandemic, and it's highly likely that you are already familiar with Eerie Essex. If you've never had the pleasure to listening to them though, well, you're in for a treat! In this episode Ailsa, Bethan and Martin talk about everything from lasagne to garden centres to demonic possession, getting lost in underground caves, and Matthew Hopkins, Witch Finder General.As you will hear, both Ailsa and Bethan have really interesting backgrounds and educational journeys to where they are today, but part of the reason we love Eerie Essex though is because of its warmth. Yes, episodes frequently contain ideas that might make you soil your britches with fear. And yes, the research Ailsa and Bethan engage in is really thorough. But, more than anything, it's the cosy, generous, very funny tone of their podcast that we find to spellbinding.If you want to know more about Eerie Essex and listen to the podcast, just search for Eerie Essex on your favoured podcast app and you'll find it.

In this episode, recorded mid-2024, we speak with Ted Rutland about the evolution of policing from the mid-20th century's professional model to the counterinsurgency urbanism that emerged in the 1970s and 80s in Canada. Rutland discusses how community policing, initially intended to bring police closer to communities through multicultural training and social services, became a strategy to win over parts of the community while waging a larger war against the rest.    We delve into some of the historical shifts in policing largely as a response to radical movements and urban rebellions. We also examine the role of progressive urban governments in maintaining counterinsurgency policing, the impact of neoliberal policies, and the influence of white nationalism in shaping urban governance. Ted and I further explore the concept of counterinsurgency urbanism, showing how it has become central to not just policing but city-making processes in its entirety where supportive and punitive measures are blended in order to maintain control over urban populations. Ted Rutland is an associate professor of geography and urban studies at Concordia University in Montreal. His research explores how capitalism and white supremacy intersect in contemporary urban politics, planning, and policing. He is the author of Displacing Blackness: Planning, Power, and Race in Twentieth-Century Halifax and the co-author (with Maxime Aurélien) of Out to Defend Ourselves: A History of Montreal's First Haitian Street Gang.   This episode was produced and edited by Aidan Elias & Jared Ware.

In the late 1960s, Will Patten was living in Berkeley, California, attending antiwar protests and shaking his first against capitalism and greedy businessmen.Today, at the age of 80, Patten is a true believer in capitalism and a successful businessman.He tells the story of his odyssey in a new book, “Rescuing Capitalism: Vermont Shows the Way.”Will Patten grew up on a dairy farm in southern Vermont in the 1950s. After receiving a bachelor's degree from Johns Hopkins University, Patten attended UC Berkeley to get a doctorate in history. But after participating in the Summer of Love in 1967, he dropped out of grad school and headed back to Vermont to “keep the revolution alive.” He opened a natural foods café in Rutland to serve as a gathering place for like-minded radicals. “In other words,” he writes, “I became the enemy: a businessman.” But Patten believed in a different kind of business, one that sought to bring about positive social change.A few years later, Patten met Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield, who wanted to use their ice cream as a vehicle for social change. Patten saw that they were kindred spirits. He opened one of the first Ben & Jerry's scoop shops, and soon became director of retail operations overseeing more than 500 scoop shops in a dozen countries. He retired from Ben & Jerry's in 2007, but quickly unretired to lead Vermont Businesses for Social Responsibility. In 2012, he unretired again to open the Hinesburg Public House, a community-supported restaurant.Patten now believes that capitalism has been hijacked by corporate profiteers. What can save it, and us? He insists that democratic capitalism, as he calls it, is the way forward, and Vermont has shown the way."(President) Ronald Reagan hijacked capitalism when he proclaimed that government was the problem, and that started a 44 year experiment in letting corporations pursue profits without caring about the earth or its inhabitants. So supply side economics is what hijacked capitalism, and it's been a disaster," said Patten.Unchecked capitalism has led to "the collapse of our environment, a very hostile climate, and the unraveling of our social fabric. We are in a severe existential crisis, and the time to fix that is getting closer and closer. We're running out of time."Why does he think that the solution to runaway capitalism is capitalism?"Capitalism is the only functioning institution there is," said Patten. "Small business is the most respected institution in the country today. I'm not saying that capitalism is going to pull us out of the ditch, but I think — and there are signs that it's beginning — that it is in their own interest to do so."Patten argues that Vermont's socially responsible businesses, including Ben & Jerry's, Gardeners Supply, and Green Mountain Power, offer a model of how business can support positive change. "The businesses that we have have always revered the environment and the and the communities and the people as much as they've revered profits." Businesses can do good not just because "it's a moral imperative, but it's also an economic imperative. They're making money finding solutions to the crises we face."What would Patten tell the '60s radical version of himself?"I would probably tell him to do what I did, which was to get into the belly of the beast and change it from the inside."

Town Meeting Day is a method of direct civic engagement and and a longstanding community building tradition. It's a time when Vermont's 247 municipalities each decide how they'll spend their local budgets. We begin by hearing about some significant votes taking place around the state. Vermont Public's Nina Keck talks about the Rutland mayoral race, and reporter Lexi Krupp explains Lyndon's vote to keep Town Meeting an in-person affair, rather than switch to Australian ballot.Then, we dig into the history of town meetings in Vermont with Middlesex town moderator Susan Clark. She is the co-author of many books about democracy in Vermont, including All Those in Favor: Rediscovering the Secrets of Town Meeting and Community. She discusses the times when Vermont towns voted on national and international issues that extended far beyond the purview of local budgets. Then, we share a 1982 NPR story by Leslie Breeding about a town meeting in Strafford. Broadcast live on Tuesday, March 4, 2025, at noon; rebroadcast at 7 p.m.

The city police department says false statements made by one of the candidates negatively impacted the department's contract negotiations. Now, city unions have weighed in, and the race itself is colored by the work history of the two men running for the job.

T.O. got out of prison in Rutland a couple weeks ago, after a six and a half year bid.  I met T.O. through my private investigator friend Susan Randall in May, 2017. He'd been a client of hers in a federal public defender case. T.O.'s been in and out of jail his whole adult life, and it's become a kind of tradition for us to get together and talk when he gets out of jail. We don't talk about his crimes. Mostly we talk about what it's like to start over…over and over. Now T.O. is in his mid forties, and this time he was released in the middle of a Vermont winter. 

Richie is joined by Ryan Cristian and Nick Hamilton. US President Donald Trump has claimed that he plans to take possession of Gaza and redevelop it. Trump even said he'd buy it. From whom?

To discuss this and more Richie is joined by broadcast journalist Ryan Cristian. www.thelastamericanvagabond.comThe former home of BBC's Gardeners' World could close after claims that plans to build a solar power plant next door would ruin the tranquillity of the gardens. Barnsdale Gardens, in Rutland, was established some 40 years ago by the horticulturist and broadcaster Geoff Hamilton, who presented the show between 1983 and 1996. Geoff's son, Nick, took over the care of Barnsdale Gardens after the death of his father in 1996 and has run it ever since.However, Nick says he could be forced to close the gardens if plans to build a solar power plant go ahead on 200 acres of land next door, adding that the tranquillity of the gardens could be shattered by the farm's noisy machinery. Nick came on the show to discuss it with Richie https://barnsdalegardens.co.uk/

Host Scott Graves is joined by fellow Vermont houser Stephen Box of Rutland.  Our discussion focused on both the local discussion and a more global look at how parking is affecting housing in all of our communities in the United States. Stephan, a loyal resident recently received a parking ticket in front of his own house due to a winter parking ban (we know you listeners in Florida are scratching your heads).  And our city  is in the midst of discussion around a greenway parking ban to keep the sidewalks free of cars.  At the local level, how can we craft our parking ordinances to encourage housing growth?  And with the global discussion including Minnestota's 2024 landmark decision to ban parking minimums state-wide, are we at the vanguard of a more sane approach to parking nation-wide?   New Podcast announcement!

Frederick Rutland was nothing short of a navy hero in the UK following WWI, but his own charisma, quirks, and opportunism led him to Hollywood to spy for Japan in the years leading to Pearl Harbor, playing a key role in the Japanese attack. Though British officials knew what he was doing, they quietly sidelined him to avoid the public embarrassment of revealing one of their own as a traitor. Author Ron Drabkin shares the outrageous story of Rutland, including his friendships with Hollywood stars such as Charlie Chaplin and Boris Karloff, from his book "Beverly Hills Spy." Heroes Behind HeadlinesExecutive Producer Ralph PezzulloProduced & Engineered by Mike DawsonMusic provided by ExtremeMusic.com

On 7th December, 1941, the Japanese Imperial Navy struck the United States. In an action which killed 2,403 Americans and destroyed 21 US warships and 188 aircraft, they also brought the US into the Second World War.But it may not have been possible without the input of a British spy who had, for a time, lived in Hollywood, mingling with stars of the screen. So who was Frederick Rutland? What information did he give the Japanese Navy intelligence that might have helped them launch the attack on Pearl Harbor? And why did he give it to them?Ronald Drabkin, author of 'Beverly Hills Spy: The Double-Agent War Hero Who Helped Japan Attack Pearl Harbor', joins Don for this episode. Together, they discuss Rutland's life and impact, and just how the intelligence services failed to catch him for so long.Produced by Sophie Gee. Edited by Aidan Lonergan.

This is a gripping tale of loyalty, intrigue, and a man who found himself on both sides of history.
