We start with reports claiming Grand Theft Auto 6 may not launch with a physical edition, as Take-Two and Rockstar allegedly consider a digital-only release to prevent leaks. We discuss what this could mean for collectors, retail, and GTA 6's already sky-high expectations. Next, we dig into new analyst predictions suggesting the PlayStation 6 may be delayed longer than expected, potentially extending the PS5 generation well into the next decade. We debate whether the PS5 still has untapped potential and what features the PS6 would actually need to feel like a true generational leap. We also cover reports that a PlayStation State of Play is locked in for February, what Sony might show, and whether titles like Marvel's Wolverine, Saros, and Marathon could appear. On the industry side, we break down Ubisoft worker unions calling for a global strike, following layoffs, studio closures, and a push to end remote work. We discuss what this says about the current state of the games industry. Plus, we react to the Microsoft Developer Direct, Xbox's declining revenue numbers, discourse surrounding new releases, Nintendo Switch censorship concerns, and a packed slate of Flash News, including MLB The Show 26, PS Plus February games, and more. We wrap up with Whatcha Been Playin'?, community questions, and plenty of classic Trophy Room discourse.

This episode is part of the "Inches Are All Around Us" series looking for all the little pockets—inches, if you will—that comprise the greater than $1 trillion in healthcare waste in this country annually. 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. Many of these inches, if we hack them out, will actually improve patient care because these inches are just like the friction that's in the middle. To this end, I started thinking about FQHCs (Federally Qualified Health Centers), which are (these FQHCs in this context, if you think about it) kind of a great laboratory for scrappy and amazing case studies about finding and cutting out waste with some serious fiscal discipline. The thing with FQHCs and why they are great places to I spy inches of waste is really because if an FQHC has a budget shortfall, they cannot solve it by cost shifting to commercial patients, commercial members, commercial plans. They have no commercial patients.  Also, they have a patient population that many would consider challenging, and they cannot restrict access. They gotta make do with what they have. They must have actually true fiscal discipline. They either figure out how to be efficient, or their patient population does not get care. But what tipped me over the edge to revisit this episode from 2021 with Gary Campbell—who is the CEO of an FQHC, by the way—I picked the show to revisit because of my conversation with Nikki King, DHA, that I had earlier this year (EP470). Nikki and I caught up, and she is now the CEO of an FQHC in Indiana. I had interviewed Nikki, by the way, about rural health a few years ago (EP338). So, go back and listen to that if anything I say today you find intriguing for other reasons. Tribe, this is interesting to think about what I'm about to tell you. Really. I've been thinking about it for six months. I wanna start out here recapping my aforementioned catch-up conversation with Nikki King as the lead-in to my conversation with Gary Campbell to follow. And to be specific here, Gary Campbell is the CEO of an FQHC in Virginia called Johnson Health Center; and Nikki King is CEO at Alliance Health Centers in Indiana. Let me tell you one thing that Nikki King did. There are many things that she did, but here's one that she told me about. Nikki realized after talking and listening to their patients that one of the biggest barriers to getting care at her FQHC for patients was no transportation. Also, as most FQHCs, they were short on funds. So, doing things like free Ubers or something like that was not an option. So, you know what Nikki did? She thought about where her patients are. For example, most referrals to their addiction treatment services came from the courthouse—a judge remanding, if that's the right word, someone to treatment. So, two birds with one stone style, Nikki marched over to the courthouse facilities person and asked if they had any open office space at the courthouse, you know, work from home and all of that. Maybe there were some open offices. Well, the courthouse did. They had some open offices. So, now rent-free or almost rent-free, I don't, I'm not sure, when a judge says to somebody, "Go get addiction treatment," that judge can also point down the hall and the patient can just walk over. Nikki did the same thing, setting up a clinic in a day care center. She set up a clinic in a homeless shelter and right by a big basketball court. You compare and contrast this, I don't know, "just get it done" approach to all of the times that you hear about "some cash-strapped entity" who decides the best thing to do immediately is new construction. Pay to build brick and mortar and then in perpetuity, of course, pay all the costs and the snow removal and the security and the utilities and repair for that new construction. And they could be an FQHC building new buildings—one of the less scrappy ones—but it also could be a big, consolidated health system or anybody in between. It's amazing how many times you hear "razor-thin margins," and then you hear "new construction" in the same sentence. I'm like, "Yeah … gotcha. Upsize." Call it my Pennsylvania Dutch and Bronx heritage. But yeah … head exploding. That was a tangent. Bottom line, however, I say all this to say FQHCs (the ones with great leadership, at least) are a wonderful case study to look for insights on how to operate in an environment that cannot rely on, again, raising commercial rates and cost shifting to balance the budget, right? Let's not forget, there are two very different ways to end up with no profit: One is genuine struggle. The other is simply being very good at spending every dollar that is given to you. For plan sponsors, this is a vital distinction, regardless of how loud anybody cries poor, any clinical partner who lacks fiscal discipline isn't struggling; they're inefficient. And we do not have a market in healthcare to be able to tell who's struggling versus who is inefficient. So, yeah … keep that in mind and listen to episode 490 and 492 after this one with Shane Cerone and Sam Flanders, MD, for more on the whole "there's no market" theme, as well as more on the fiscal discipline topic. But again, this is why FQHCs are such a good case study here, because there's an upper limit to how much money they have. In most circumstances—I mean, barring some big donation or something like that—but under most circumstances, they have a revenue cap that they have to be disciplined enough to work within. Okay … one last thing before we kick into the show today. I wanna be really clear here. Fiscal discipline isn't something that any individual doctor or nurse or other clinician can tackle in a vacuum. Or even any given administrator. It is a leadership imperative. Great leadership doesn't just manage the clinical side. It takes accountability for the administrative waste that keeps margins thin and prices high. So, here's actionable advice for anybody listening, regardless of what you may or may not have to do with FQHCs. If you're a plan sponsor looking for a clinical partner, consider, like, what Nikki King is doing and the thinking that Gary Campbell is gonna talk about as a benchmark. Real value comes from finding the organizations that treat fiscal discipline as kind of a mission critical strategy, because these days, with all the affordability issues, it is financial toxicity is clinical toxicity. I mean, maybe you can find an organization that actually does unit cost accounting. Listen to the show with Mick Connors, MD (EP495). Okay … as I said earlier, my guest today is Gary Campbell, who I spoke with in 2021—so this is a deep cut from the archives, but it's also a really great show. Gary, as I said earlier, is CEO of Johnson Health Center, which is an FQHC, in Lynchburg, Virginia. He's also the president of Impact2Lead.

Howdy Take listeners! We're approaching the very end of the Christmas corridor—and we've got all the movie reviews you need to get you through the final push and onto the sofa eating Quality Street and turkey leftovers. First up, The Housemaid—Paul Feig's psychological thriller starring Sydney Sweeney as a live-in maid for a family with dark secrets. Plus Marty Supreme, the high-speed Josh Safdie drama starring Timothée Chalamet as a aspiring table-tennis star in 1950s New York—and finally, Avatar: Fire and Ash. Regular listeners will know about Mark's longstanding love for (slating) the Avatar films—so buckle up for a festive rant. The wonderful Paul Bettany—star of A Knights Tale, Dogville, and more recently the Marvel Cinematic Universe as both the voice of J.A.R.V.I.S. and as Vision—is our guest this week. He's with us to discuss the new Sky adaptation of Amadeus—in which he plays Salieri, the frustratedly mediocre nemesis of Will Sharpe's Mozart. The Oscar-winning 1984 film adaptation is Simon's favourite movie of all time—but will Bettany win him over to this new TV version? They unpack it and talk music, the truth about Mozart, and whether Paul will ever direct again. Thanks for listening, and Merry Christmas ya filthy animals!

Historian Kevin Impellizeri shares a story of a video game controversy to his friends: Elford Stephens, Phil Thomas, and Ryan Weaver. In our thrilling conclusion to our remastered version of our 2022 episode on the Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas "Hot Coffee" mod, we examine the fallout and the lasting legacy behind arguably the most infamous mod in the history of video games. Topics discussed include: the grandma who saved her grandchild from the M-rated game she bought, Take-Two runs afoul of the city of Flint, MI, the slapdash remastered editions of the Grand Theft Auto trilogy, and how many bad Arnold Schwarzenegger impressions can we cram into a single episode?For more on Hot Coffee and Rockstar, check out:David Kushner, Jacked: The Unauthorised Behind-the-Scenes Story of Grand Theft Auto (London: Collins, 2012).Simon Parkin, "Who Spilled Hot Coffee?"

Bob and Dave open the show talking about the news that TJ Watt underwent surgery for a punctured lung and then dive into the biggest story of the week, 44 year old Phillip Rivers coming back to the Colts for their game against the Hawks on Sunday. They talk about Elijah Arroyo’s lingering injury, the Huskies playing the LA Bowl tomorrow, and more in Take Two. They’re joined by Seahawks FB/TE Brady Russell to talk about being named a captain for this weekend’s game against the Colts, the Hawks electric special teams unit, how the team is preparing for a QB that hasn’t played in 5 years, and much more. And they talk about what scares them the most about the upcoming game against the Colts.

Dave and Bob discuss this morning’s news that Seahawks Running Backs coach Kennedy Polamalu is taking a leave of absence, and how it could impact the running game, debate if the Indianapolis Colts have a better chance with Riley Leonard or Philip Rivers at quarterback in Take Two, compare the remaining schedules for the Seahawks, Rams, and 49ers in this tight division race, and celebrate the Seahawks special teams for being among the league’s best.

Plus reviews of some brand new films you can watch in cinemas and at home this holiday: Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery—the latest instalment in the whodunnit franchise that's fast becoming a Christmastime screen staple, starring the fabulously accented Daniel Craig as detective Benoit Blanc and Josh O'Connor as a priest at the centre of the case—alongside the stellar ensemble cast we've come to expect from Knives Out. Plus we've got Goodbye June—the directorial debut from Kate Winslet that sees a dysfunctional family thrown together when their matriarch falls gravely ill at Christmas. The ensemble cast includes Helen Mirren, Toni Colette, Johnny Flynn, Timothy Spall, and Andrea Riseborough, alongside Winslet herself—and its screenplay was penned by her son Joe Anders. Kate Winslet will be joining us for an extended Christmas special interview on the Take—so you'll hear a little sneak peek of that too. And finally, on a less festive note we've got Lurker—a fame and fandom psychodrama about a retail worker who becomes part of a pop star's inner circle.

Bob and Dave talk about the X-Factors for the Seahawks going down the stretch of the season and call on new WR Rashid Shaheed to step up and make more of a difference now that he is more comfortable in the offensive system. They also debate who is the #2 WR on the Hawks offense, is it Cooper Kupp, Shaheed, or someone else? They talk about the injured players the Seahawks defense will be getting back this week and more in Take Two. They highlight the historic season the Hawks Defense is having and compare it to the LOB era; the stats are much closer than you might think. And they do a deep dive on the offensive line and talk about what the Hawks should do down the stretch with their big men up front.

Jessa and Nico return from their visit to Ireland. All along the way, the subject of whether or not Ireland should be united kept coming up. But beyond the slogans and the bad ideas, there are very real issues at work, tedious and boring but also tremendously consequential. Nico reflects on the influence the Northern Ireland peace agreement had on Colombian politics, Jessa discusses how social media creates a false sense of consensus, and they both worry about our decreased ability to manage complexity in political issues.

Dave and Bob digest the new information from the Seahawks injury report and the signing of Quandre Diggs, receive an update on the Vikings quarterback situation in Take Two, crown the Rams as the NFCs best team “right now”, and Two Eagles reporters start bickering during a press conference in Sweeping the Dial.

Dave and Bob run through the Seahawks injury report and share who would make the most impact when they return to the field, examine what to expect from the Minnesota Vikings amid their losing streak, debate the Pro Football Hall of Fame Semifinalists in Take Two, speculate on what happens to the Seahawks offense when defenses sell out to stop JSN, and whip Around the NFL after a gritty Monday night win from the San Francisco 49ers.

Dave and Bob break down the good and the bad from the Seahawks week 12 win, including why Dave loves watching “superstar” wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba, look ahead to next week in Take Two as the Minnesota Vikings will likely start an undrafted rookie quarterback, go through the injury report and ask what could cause problems down the road, and ponder Pete Carroll’s future with the Raiders after they hit rock bottom.

This OG of directly contracted high-value networks or Centers of Excellence networks came up, name dropped and everything in the episode with Elizabeth Mitchell from PBGH, the Purchaser Business Group on Health, from two weeks ago. That was episode 491. So, welcome to this deep cut episode with Olivia Ross from way back, pre-pandemic times. This episode of Relentless Health Value revisits the concept of directly contracted high value networks or Centers of Excellence (ECEN) with Olivia Ross. The discussion explores the impact and potential of the ECEN network, emphasizing the importance of quality, price transparency, and multidisciplinary approaches in healthcare.  Olivia delves into the reasons why ECEN was significant in past PBGH projects and its current relevance, despite its eventual dismantling due to corporate changes. The episode highlights the benefits for employers in creating their own high-value networks and the positive outcomes from fewer unnecessary surgeries and better quality care. Additionally, it covers the rigorous process of selecting Centers of Excellence and how continuous quality improvement efforts benefit both employers and healthcare providers. === LINKS ===

Xbox's big bet for bringing PCs to the living room has officially been undercut. This week, Valve announced three (!) different pieces of hardware. First, there is the Steam Machine, which serves as the strongest competitor to consoles. While still very much a PC, the Steam Machine packs a lot of punch for a small device and could be a force if priced well. Second, a brand new VR headset in the Steam Frame. Despite Meta having massive first-party support, Valve has decided to challenge a space that many of us thought was finished growing. Third, and finally, is a Steam Controller. It's horrendous looking and makes the Duke look ergonomic. How does Valve's aggressive hardware plans disrupt Xbox and does any lingering appeal for the PC in the living room by Xbox remain? The Dukes unite and dive straight in.
