Curbing Gun Violence Through Public Health: Despite the deeply tragic, terrifying and high-profile nature of gun violence, the United States has not been able to make significant progress on the problem. The arguments on all sides are exhaustingly familiar, and so is the lack of governmental and societal action. In the meantime, more and more people are dying—researchers say more than 45,000 a year. A group of passionate health care providers and public health professionals are urging us to look at the issue in a different light, and think about how the country’s gun-owning and gun-despising populations can actually work together to save lives. Physician and Brown University professor Megan Ranney joins former U.S. surgeon general and anesthesiologist Jerome Adams and physician and program director of the American Foundation for Firearm Injury Reduction in Medicine (AFFIRM) at the Aspen Institute, Christopher Barsotti for a spirited talk at Aspen Ideas: Health.

Christy Ford Chapin on the Evolution of the American Health Care System: Christy Ford Chapin talks with host Russ Roberts about her book, Ensuring America's Health, a history of how America's health care system came to be dominated by insurance companies or government agencies paying doctors per procedure. She explains how this system emerged from efforts by the American Medical Association to stop reform efforts. Chapin argues that different models might have emerged that would lead to a more effective health care system. by EconTalk

Are we in control of our medical freedom? An interview with Dr. John Kim.: In today’s episode, Lindsey interviews Dr. John Kim, a pharmacist in charge of Robinson Drug and Compounding Center. His passion for compounding has lead him to create patient-centric medications from widely varying disease state that includes women’s health, autism, bio-identical hormone replacement therapy, nutrition, cannabis as medicine, and more. Dr. Kim believes the Doctor of the future is in fact the patient. Lindsey and Dr. Kim discuss medical freedom, and what many people think are risks to medical freedom in this day and age. They dissect censorship of natural medicine, and the ways the government is restricting pharmacists and other physicians and how that is harmful to patients everywhere. Then, Lindsey shares why it is so important to learn to cope and respond to what is happening to the world around us in a positive way. She states that even though we can’t choose what’s going on in the world, w by The Lindsey Elmore Show
