Podcasts about Medicare

A new report has found that high medical costs have caused almost two million Australians to delay or skip appointments with specialist doctors. The report from the Grattan Institute says some specialists in the private sector charge patients two to three times more than the rate Medicare sets for those services. The Institute suggests stripping public funding to doctors charging excessive fees could be part of the remedy.

We started out with the Medicare Advantage Minute during which we learned that the "Final Rule" for MA and Part D drug plans for 2026 has been published. Learn 14 (or fewer) exciting things about what the future holds for those plans. In the "Your Medicare Benefits 2025" segment we learn exactly how Medicare would cover Kidney Disease Education. This is an awkward way of saying that Medicare will pay to educate people about the ravages of Kidney Disease. Did you know that Massachusetts is one of only three states that is allowed to design their own Medicare supplement plans? Well, they did a really bad job of it and they don't seem to care at all. Finally, when it comes to GLP-1 drugs fight diabetes and also happen to promote weight loss, they may not be as wonderful as hoped. Six out of 10 patients stop taking these drugs before seeing meaningful results and many health insurance companies have stopped covering them.   Contact me at: DBJ@MLMMailbag.com (Most severe critic: A+)                   Visit us on: BabyBoomer.ORG Inspired by: "MEDICARE FOR THE LAZY MAN 2025; Simplest & Easiest Guide Ever!" on Amazon.com.

The Traumas of Police Work and Drowning Deaths, Special Episode. The badge doesn't always protect the heart. Retired Seminole County Sheriff's Sergeant Mark DiBona knows that truth all too well. After more than three decades in law enforcement, spanning from Braintree, Massachusetts to the heart of Florida, DiBona's battle wasn't just with criminals, it was with the lasting traumas of police work, the devastating toll of a baby's drowning death, and a fight for his own life. The episode is also promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other platforms. “I couldn't save that baby,” Mark shared in this episode of The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast now streaming on for free on their website, in addition to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major social media platforms including Facebook, Instagram, X, and LinkedIn. “And that day nearly cost me my life too.” Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . The incident that nearly broke him happened in Seminole County, Florida, where DiBona had built a respected career within a sheriff's office, with 1,400 employees and nearly $170 million budget. Seminole County, nestled in Central Florida and part of the Orlando-Kissimmee-Sanford metro area, is no stranger to public safety challenges. But few hit as close to home as the tragic, preventable death of a young child. The Traumas of Police Work and Drowning Deaths. Drowning: Florida's Hidden Crisis Florida tragically leads the nation in child drowning deaths. In 2023 alone, 97 children in the state lost their lives to drowning. Residential pools, bathtubs, and even buckets of standing water claim lives year-round, particularly during the spring and summer months. Lack of proper supervision, faulty or missing safety barriers, and elopement behaviors in children are just a few of the contributing factors. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. DiBona responded to one such scene: a baby in medical distress from drowning. Despite doing everything he could, the child couldn't be saved. “That was it for me,” he admitted. “I'd seen violence, accidents, suicides, but that baby…I still hear that day in my sleep.” The Weight of the Badge, Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. The Traumas of Police Work and Drowning Deaths. Law enforcement officers are at a significantly higher risk of developing PTSD than the general population. Studies show between 7% and 19% of officers experience symptoms consistent with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. The causes? The trauma is layered and relentless: Regular exposure to gruesome scenes and high-stress situations. Emotional and psychological burdens from the decisions they make. Cumulative trauma over years without real recovery time. Isolation and internal pressure to "stay strong" at all costs. Mark DiBona was no exception. “I developed PTSD, depression, anxiety…and it showed” he revealed, pausing to reflect. “There were times I didn't want to live anymore. I didn't think I was worth saving.” You can listen to his stories and interview on our website for free in addition to platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and other major podcast platforms. His Recovery and a New Mission But he was saved, through faith, therapy, purpose, and community. DiBona, now a nationally recognized speaker and advocate, travels the country as the “Rock Star of Mental Health,” speaking about suicide prevention, first responder wellness, and the traumas of police work. His voice is raw, honest, and hard-won. The Traumas of Police Work and Drowning Deaths. “I want every cop, firefighter, EMT, dispatcher, any first responder, to know: You can come back from the edge. I'm proof,” he said. The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. He co-founded Behind the Tin an initiative aimed at protecting those who protect others. His story, shared widely through podcasts, various news and radio outlets, and social media platforms like their LinkedIn and Instagram, is saving lives by shining a light on what he calls “the silent injuries” of the job. “I always considered myself a cop's cop,” DiBona said. “But I didn't know I'd have to learn how to save myself too.” Spreading the Word, Saving Lives Mark believes the issue of PTSD in law enforcement isn't just under-reported, it's dangerously misunderstood. The macho culture, fear of judgment, and lack of institutional support often silence those who are suffering. The Traumas of Police Work and Drowning Deaths. “We lose more cops to suicide than to gunfire. Where's the outrage? Where's the support?” he asked. With his Christian faith as an anchor, Mark now views his darkest days as fuel for his purpose. He regularly appears in news features, podcasts, and mental health panels, using platforms like Facebook and X (formerly Twitter) to reach first responders in crisis. Listen to his full interview on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website for free, also on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or most major podcast platforms. The Traumas of Police Work and Drowning Deaths. Through his advocacy and public speaking, he's become a beacon for those walking the same dark path he once did. Whether on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or standing behind a podium in front of hundreds, his message remains consistent: “There is help. There is healing. And you are not alone.” Learn useful tips and strategies to increase your Facebook Success with John Jay Wiley. Both free and paid content are available on this Patreon page .

“For you know how, like a father with his children, we exhorted each one of you and encouraged you and charged you to walk in a manner worthy of God, who calls you into his own kingdom and glory.” - 1 Thessalonians 2:11-12With Father's Day approaching, we're asking a deeper question: What kind of legacy are we leaving as men, as dads, and as stewards of what God has entrusted to us? Jonathan Lewis from Fathers for Fathers joins us to talk about fatherhood, faith, and the financial discipleship that shapes generations.Jonathan Lewis is a Certified Exit Planning Advisor (CEPA®), a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA®), and President of Eastport Financial Group Inc. He is also the founder of Fathers for Fathers, a faith-based organization dedicated to restoring hope, healing, and purpose in the lives of men, especially fathers. A Story RedeemedWhen Jonathan was 15, he experienced a trauma no child should face—dragging his father's lifeless body onto a beach in Nova Scotia after a drowning accident. That moment became a fracture point in his life, leading to years of instability, homelessness, guilt, and emotional isolation.But out of those ashes came clarity: a calling to reach other men who feel lost, alone, and ashamed. His ministry, Fathers for Fathers, is a direct response to the epidemic of fatherlessness and emotional isolation plaguing men today.The Epidemic Few Talk About84% of men say they don't have a single person they can talk to.Guys have been trained to withdraw, but we need each other. If you're listening and feel like you've failed as a father, or you don't even have the strength to keep going, you're not alone. You can do this, but not by yourself.The solution is community and accountability. And for men who do have a support system, pursue others. Don't take the first 12 ‘no's as a brush-off. Broken men want to be pursued. They're just afraid.What Does Faithful Fatherhood Look Like?So, what does it mean to be a successful father?First, if you're still breathing, your story isn't over. You haven't missed your chance.Using a football analogy from Fathers for Fathers' upcoming study, life can be described as a game we're all born into—on the wrong team. But we don't have to stay there. Through Jesus Christ, we're invited to join the winning team. But it requires repentance, humility, and a willingness to fight.And it often starts with small steps.Practical Steps Toward RestorationFor divorced dads and those estranged from their children, you may think there's no way back. But there is. If you're not in your kids' lives, start. If you haven't supported their mom, own it. If you've been battling secret sin—confess it.These are hard words, but they're spoken with deep compassion. God will honor you when you honor Him. This ministry isn't about beating men up. It's about helping them get back in the game.Stewardship Starts at HomeStewardship isn't just about money. If you're generous with your wealth but not your love or your time, you've missed the point.Stewardship begins with the way a man loves and leads his family, especially his wife. When reading Ephesians 5, men might say, ‘I'd take a bullet for my wife.' But Christ calls us to something harder: dying to ourselves daily.Stewardship, then, is about priorities: honoring God with your money, your time, your attention, and your affection.A Prayer for DadsIf you're a father or a man who feels discouraged, who is ready for more, and who is just hanging on. Pray this out loud:“Lord, I pray that Your Spirit would touch the heart of the man listening who thinks he's too far gone. Remind him that nothing can separate us from Your love, not even failure. Let him know Jesus already put on the jersey for him. I pray for courage, for repentance, and for grace. Thank you for the scandalous grace that says You would've sent Jesus for just one man. You sent Him for all of us.”If you're a father who feels broken, or if you know one, visit FathersForFathers.org. You'll find tools, encouragement, and a brotherhood of men committed to healing and hope.This Father's Day, let's not just celebrate the dads who've done it right. Let's rally around the men who are trying to get it right, one step at a time.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm curious about nursing home costs and what happens to my parents' assets. I learned that Medicare covers limited skilled nursing care, and Medicaid restricts asset access, meaning my siblings and I likely won't be able to access their money while they're in a nursing home.I'm currently working and planning to retire soon. How could I invest in ways that align with my faith and ensure I'm not supporting companies that go against my beliefs?I wanted clarification on fixed indexed annuities. I wasn't familiar with them and wanted to understand if they were a good investment option.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Fathers For FathersList of Faith-Based Investment FundsWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money (Pre-Order)Look At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

The Medicare Advantage Minute segment once again illustrates the fact that very few appeals were filed by MA victims of prior authorization refusals. However, the majority of those appeals resulted in reversals of the denials! In "Your Medicare Benefits 2025" we learn how Medicare covers insulin, including the newly created $35 monthly out-of-pocket limit! Moments before recording time a plea for assistance arrived from a victim of the barrage of MA plan brutality that happens to everyone who turns age 65. After hearing a radio interview he decided to emerge from hiding and take a chance on Medicare for the Lazy Man. Finally, How can one appeal a Part D lifetime late enrollment penalty?

"It was pretty apparent to me that something was going on with him," says Kristi Levine, describing the realization that, based on her experience as a Montessori teacher, her infant son, Trey, was missing developmental milestones. Unfortunately, Kristi's hunch turned out to be correct and Trey was later diagnosed with a rare genetic mutation called CACNA1A which is impacting his motor skills, balance, coordination and speech. Kristi and her husband, Eric, join host Michael Carrese on this installment in our Year of the Zebraseries to help us understand the disorder and its implications for Trey and their family, which includes Trey's older sister Stella.  “There's a lot of guilt involved in being a parent of a child who has a disability because you never feel like you're doing enough,” shares Eric, even though they both work full time and have becoming experts at juggling work, caregiving, advocating, and volunteering with the CACNA1A Foundation. In this candid interview, Eric and Kristi discuss the challenges of parenting a child with complex medical needs, the importance of community support, the ongoing search for treatment options, and share some advice for clinicians caring for patients and families living with rare disorders. “We just want medical professionals to respect and understand what we're dealing with on a day-to-day basis and to see our kids holistically, and not just try to fix the problem medically. Understand that for us, the biggest thing that we want for our kids is just their quality of life.”Mentioned in this episode:CACNA1A Foundation If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Dementia family caregivers face an overwhelming journey—without adequate support or resources. Supporting someone with dementia is a complex, emotional, exhausting journey. Yet, dementia family caregivers face this challenge without the coordinated support, training, or resources needed to provide the best care possible. But that's beginning to change. On July 1st Medicare is launching a new, first-of-its-kind program called GUIDE—Guiding an Improved Dementia Experience—created to provide comprehensive, FREE support for dementia family caregivers. Daughterhood has partnered with PocketRN, an approved Medicare provider for the GUIDE program and a nationwide organization offering families 24/7 access to nurses—right from their pocket. My guest today is Jenna Morgenstern-Gaines, the CEO and co-founder of PocketRN. In our conversation, Jenna will share more details about the GUIDE program and its comprehensive benefits, including ongoing caregiver support, education and training, access to respite care, how to enroll, everything you need to know to access the program.

Retirement isn't just about financial spreadsheets, it's about preparing your whole life for a new chapter. In this episode, Eric uses the clever framework of The Five People You Meet in Heaven to explore the five types of professionals and relationships that can shape your retirement journey. From legal guidance to physical wellness, these people can help protect what you've built and ensure you're actually able to enjoy it. Here's some of what we discuss in this episode:

Dr. David Carmouche, Chief Clinical Transformation Officer at Lumeris, is addressing the primary care shortage by providing a platform that supports primary care physicians in managing a broader patient population and delivering better health outcomes. The Lumeris platform, Tom, is an AI-powered virtual assistant that can interact with patients, provide chronic disease management, education and support, and coordinate care on behalf of providers. Tom can improve efficiency, reduce clinician burnout, and provide more convenient and personalized experiences for patients.  David explains, "And so, they built the company, Lumeris, as a commercialization arm of their relationship to empower other primary care physicians to manage populations and deliver better health outcomes at a lower cost. And so for the last 12 years or so, Lumaris has been partnering largely with large medical groups and health systems to help them manage populations, Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial populations, and helping drive high performance and high outcomes within those relationships. The economics are shared economics, so when the plans and providers are successful by delivering better outcomes, Lumeris shares in those rewards."  "Given the 20-year history that I mentioned of understanding care deeply as a provider of care and as a partner to those providers of care, we have the fortune to build new technology to support primary care. Our environment starts with aggregating data, and that data helps us define a view of a patient. That data could come from an electronic medical record, it could come from claims data from a pharmacist, it could come from claims data from a payer, or it could come from a pharmacist or a lab. It could be consumer data that is purchasable, as organizations like Target, Walmart, and others use to market to us today. We aggregate that data to create a 360° view of a patient. Then we're able to leverage some of the new artificial intelligence that creates the ability for the platform to interact with patients on behalf of their clinical care teams at points in time where we understand that there is a defined next best clinical action that might help you in your health journey." #Lumeris #MedAI #DigitalHealth #PrimaryCareProviders lumeris.com Download the transcript here

Police and Gangs, Her Battle With The Department and Court. In the gritty streets of California's Bay Area, former police officer Janelle Perez patrolled neighborhoods ravaged by gang violence, battling not only criminal organizations but also the very department she once proudly served. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. “I came into law enforcement with purpose,” Janelle shared during an interview on The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show which is featured as a free podcast episode available on their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and many podcast platforms. The episode is also promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other platforms. “But I never imagined that the hardest fight I'd face wouldn't be with the gangs, but with my own department.” Janelle Perez is a former Bay Area police officer whose career was defined by front-line encounters with violent gangs like the Sureños, Norteños, and Wah Ching, organized groups deeply rooted in California's urban corridors which also grew into the suburbs. In her role, she confronted everything from drug trafficking to gangland turf wars fueled by stolen firearms and fear. But her story doesn't end with arrests and patrols. Her memoir, The Moral Police, tells a deeper story. It chronicles her unexpected and painful descent from decorated officer to plaintiff in a courtroom battle against the police department that dismissed her. Police and Gangs, Her Battle With The Department and Court. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Perez was fired after eight months with the Roseville Police Department, she says for an off-duty relationship with a fellow officer during her separation. She took her case to the court, citing gender discrimination and privacy violations. Her battle stretched across seven years and reached the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, where she initially won. But that victory was later overturned. “It wasn't just a legal fight,” Janelle said. Janelle, a Penn State graduate in Justice Administration and Sociology, became a voice for reform and an advocate for female leadership in law enforcement. In her podcast interviews and media appearances, she says that the justice system often fails its own, especially when gender dynamics and departmental politics collide. Throughout her time in law enforcement, Perez worked in communities where gangs weren't just a threat, they were a way of life. From the Eddy Rock and Knock Out Posse gangs in San Francisco to major prison gangs like the Mexican Mafia, Nuestra Familia, and Aryan Brotherhood, she navigated a violent landscape that demanded vigilance, intuition, and resilience. “These gangs enforce their own kind of law,” Perez explained. “And when the actual justice system fails from the inside, it becomes hard to tell who you're really fighting.” Police and Gangs, Her Battle With The Department and Court. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. Statistics underscore the challenges she faced. By the early 1990s, California had become a hub for gang activity, with thousands of organized groups and hundreds of thousands of members. Urban centers like Oakland, San Jose, and Richmond became battlegrounds where gang-related homicides and turf wars eclipsed many other forms of crime. According to national surveys, gang membership and criminal incidents surged between 1991 and 1993, peaking at over half a million members and hundreds of thousands of gang-related crimes. In these conditions, law enforcement officers walk a razor-thin line. “When you're confronting people who operate by their own rules, you expect your department to have your back,” Janelle said. “But that's not always the case. And that's what hurts the most.” The Moral Police doesn't just delve into the systemic flaws of the police system. It's a call for accountability, leadership, and reform. Through her writing, radio interviews, and podcast appearances, Janelle Perez shines a light on the importance of transparency in law enforcement—especially when those in power misuse it. You can listen to her stories and interview on our website for free in addition to platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and other major podcast platforms. Her story resonates across social platforms and professional networks, drawing attention from news outlets and discussion forums alike. The Facebook and Instagram comments are filled with encouragement. LinkedIn readers are engaging with posts about her on workplace equity and integrity. Police and Gangs, Her Battle With The Department and Court. “I wanted to inspire others not to stay silent. Whether you're in law enforcement, education, or tech, speak up when something is wrong,” she said. “You shouldn't have to lose your job to hold leadership accountable.” Now, Janelle continues to share her journey and advocate for those who feel silenced within institutions meant to protect and serve. Her podcast appearances are gaining momentum, and her book is sparking conversation in communities far beyond California. Her story is about much more than a badge. It's about courage, conviction, and confronting the battles that exist both outside and within the blue line. The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. You can follow updates and advocacy through our social media channels and find The Moral Police wherever books are sold.

Matt Crawford speaks with author Judy Karofsky about her book, DisElderly Conduct: The Flawed Business of Assisted Living and Hospice. The book is a personal account of unmet needs in assisted living and hospice aiming to spark discussions about new approaches for America's aging population and family decision makers. There are 30 thousand assisted living facilities in the US, but most are unaffordable for middleclass Americans and fraught with staffing deficiencies and mismanagement. Chapters on the author's experience helping her mother move from an age-restricted community in Florida to independent living in Wisconsin to assisted living will interest seniors and their family members who know the struggle of finding long term affordable care. The chapter on hospice care distinguishes it from assisted living through the author's experiences and misconceptions, then moves to a broader discussion of Medicare spending, and finally a meditation on dying of old age. The author strikes an effective balance between the personal, political, and cultural aspects of aging. Karofsky dedicates the last chapter of the book to a discussion of recent failures to protect long term care patients during the COVID19 pandemic.

In the context of medical and/or dental insurance, ADR refers to Additional Documentation Request. This is a request from an insurance payer (like Medicare) for additional records to support a claim. It's not a sign of wrongdoing, but rather a way to ensure compliance with policies and verify the validity of claims. Ignoring these requests, or failure to meet their deadlines, can result in a loss of revenue and trigger additional payers' audits and ADR's. Terry outlines the ADRs and best practices to make sure your staff is on top of these requests, which helps save your revenue.

Over half of Americans now live with at least one chronic condition, yet our healthcare system still revolves around episodic, reactionary care instead of continuous, coordinated support.We talk with Dr. Jaewon Ryu—former CEO of Geisinger and now CEO of Risant Health—about how integrated delivery systems are reshaping the way care is paid for and delivered. With decades of experience spanning medicine, law, government, and leadership at some of the most respected healthcare institutions, Dr. Ryu offers a rare inside look at what it takes to scale value-based care in a fragmented system.We cover:

Dr. Caroline Fife and Dr. Christopher Apostol join us to explore the rising cost of skin substitutes in wound care, which Aledade data suggests is a tenfold increase in the last three years. Dr. Fife explains that rising costs are due to an increase in both cost of the product and increased usage and she addresses the real concerns such as the way many skin substitutes are exempt from FDA review, offer rebates or discounts to clinicians and how some Medicare payment models incentivize the use of more expensive treatments. Dr. Apostol also notes how wound care has evolved through the lens of primary care, including an increase in specialist utilization and mobile wound care teams.

Arresting A Serial Criminal That Attacked Women. What better place than a courtroom to find a violent serial criminal, but to get to Court you have to arrest them first. Brian Surber, a seasoned attorney and former special agent, is our guest. The courthouse wasn't off-limits for the predators he's faced. Surber, who brings experience from both the prosecution and law enforcement sides of the justice system, shares gripping firsthand accounts of tracking, arresting, and prosecuting some of the most dangerous criminals in America, including a serial attacker whose crimes spanned states and whose victims were often unaware they were being watched, followed, and targeted. The episode is also promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other platforms. In a special podcast episode now available on Apple, Spotify, and shared widely across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and other social media platforms, Surber recounts the dramatic story of taking down a serial criminal that attacked women. “These weren't crimes of opportunity,” Surber says. “They were premeditated. This individual targeted women, tracked their routines, and even used social engineering tactics online and in person. What stood out was the level of planning and confidence, he believed he couldn't be stopped.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. Brian Surber served as a prosecuting attorney and also worked with the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs Control, giving him a rare dual perspective: one that spans investigation and courtroom prosecution. Over the course of his career, he's helped dismantle violent drug gangs, secure convictions for high-profile offenders, and navigate complex cases where digital footprints, DNA evidence, and survivor testimony intertwine. Arresting A Serial Criminal That Attacked Women. “One of the most horrifying cases involved a serial rapist who used surveillance of victims,” Surber explains. “He would attack them and systematically erase any sense of control they had left. These predators know how to hide in plain sight.” Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Statistics support the pattern. According to multiple studies, serial rapists often go undetected for years due to a combination of rape kit backlogs and the tendency for early victims not to report. Research from Case Western Reserve University revealed that 60% of serial rapists had been previously arrested for other sexual assaults, a fact that underscores the importance of early intervention and vigilant policing. Surber's work highlights this point precisely: catching these offenders early is crucial not only to prevent future assaults but also to expose patterns that only emerge over time. “Many of these men had long histories of violence, often rooted in their own trauma. But that doesn't excuse the choices they made,” Surber says. “Their use of threats, drugging, stalking, and predatory behavior wasn't random, it was calculated.” Arresting A Serial Criminal That Attacked Women. The FBI's Behavioral Science Unit, created in 1974, was instrumental in identifying behavioral patterns that would later help in arresting serial predators. Surber often consulted with behavioral experts to map the escalation patterns, from juvenile fetish crimes and voyeurism to full-blown violent assaults. In one study of 41 serial rapists, researchers found over 1,200 attempted and completed rapes, yet only 200 convictions. “That's a terrifying statistic,” Surber adds, “and it proves how much work we still have to do.” Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. The conversation takes a sharp turn when Surber critiques the growing push for criminal justice reform, a movement he argues has been clouded by emotion rather than rooted in facts. “We're seeing people who push dangerous policies under the guise of reform,” he says. “But the truth is, these reforms have in many cases made it harder to protect victims and prosecute predators.” His book, "Injustice for All: The (Familiar) Fallacies of Criminal Justice Reform," aims to expose the unintended consequences of poorly conceived reform efforts. “We're not talking about harmless offenders. We're talking about men who assault dozens of women, sometimes in public or inside institutions meant to protect them,” he writes. “And then we're asked to soften our approach? That's insanity.” Surber's experiences, and his words, are raw, honest, and deeply unsettling. But they are also necessary. Through his website, BrianSurber.com, and appearances on news platforms, podcasts, and social media, he's sparking urgent conversations about how to better protect women, how to hold serial criminals accountable, and why we must never let false narratives cloud the fight for justice. You can listen to his stories and interview on our website for free in addition to platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and other major podcast platforms. Arresting A Serial Criminal That Attacked Women. “Criminal justice isn't about how we feel,” Surber says in the podcast. “It's about what we can prove. And it's about keeping dangerous people off the streets before they destroy more lives.” The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn.

Some of the sickest Medicare Advantage patients ran into problems getting end-of-life care. Ultimately many patients switched to traditional Medicare, costing taxpayers billions, according to an investigation by the Wall Street Journal. This is one of many Medicare Advantage practices that is now under government scrutiny. Both Congress and Medicare agency head Dr. Mehmet Oz are pushing for reforms to curb tactics that can boost federal payments to private insurers. The Department of Justice is also investigating major private insurance companies UnitedHealth, Aetna, Elevance Health and Humana. Jessica Mendoza discusses the investigations with WSJ's Anna Wilde Mathews. Further Listening: -Medicare, Inc.

Medicare Advantage was designed to save the government money. But a Wall Street Journal investigation found that private insurers used the program to generate extra payments through questionable diagnoses. The investigation uncovered instances of potentially deadly illnesses like AIDS, where patients received no follow-up care, as well as diagnoses that were medically impossible. This happened in part when insurers sent nurse practitioners into Medicare Advantage recipients' homes. Jessica Mendoza discusses the investigation with WSJ's Christopher Weaver as well as a nurse who participated in the program.  Further Listening: -A Life-or-Death Insurance Denial  -Even Doctors Are Frustrated With Health Insurance  Sign up for WSJ's free What's News newsletter.  Learn more about your ad choices.

It's Casual Friday my friends, and boy do we have a lot to celebrate. Elon Musk and Donald Trump are having an ugly public break up and we are here for it. Bit what does all this mean for Trump's Big Beautiful Bill? Heather "Digby" Parton is here to help us break it all down. Check out Digby's column at Salon: https://www.salon.com/writer/heather_digby_parton As well as her blog Digby's Hullabaloo: https://digbysblog.net/ In the Fun Half, Republican Senator James Lankford says that that the Big Beautiful Bill will move millions of people from Medicare to employee-funded health care. Hmm, we weren't aware that this huge tax cut for rich people that guts the social safety net is also a job creator. It's a head scratcher. After that, Donald Trump seems to suggest that the Nazis are still in power in Germany. He tells the German chancellor that D-Day must be a bad day for Germany, because, you know, it was huge turning point in the defeat of Hitler's dictatorship. And a former denouncer of Andrew Cuomo who is also running against him in the NYC mayor's race has had a change of heart and is now endorsing him. Don't rank Jessica Ramos NYC folks! And James Carville has a strange  bit of commentary on Jewish donors to political campaigns.

P.M. Edition for June 5. President Trump and Elon Musk traded barbs today as ​Trump threatened to eliminate government subsidies and contracts for Musk's businesses, while the billionaire called the president ungrateful. Plus, the U.S. trade deficit collapsed in April, with a record drop in imports. WSJ reporter Matt Grossman discusses where tariffs fit in, and whether we can expect future data to remain at similar levels. And we exclusively report that Humana, the second-biggest Medicare insurer, has told congressional staffers that it will support moves that would curtail billing practices worth billions in extra payments to the industry. We hear from Journal reporter Christopher Weaver about why the company is making such a move, and how it could affect the broader Medicare business. Alex Ossola hosts.
