Our first episode!

We are Timothy Faust and Kelly Jo. We really like health policy and heavy metal.

Every other-week or so we'll discuss a current-ish event we think is interesting, and a health policy or health law paper we're into. We'll also discuss a metal album and attempt to say "this kicks ass" in as many words as possible for a few minutes.

Here's Episode 1, where we attempt to discuss ACOs and bundled payments (a clearer discussion of basic payment models comes in Episode 2) and how carceralism fills the gaps in broken healthcare policy to punish vulnerable people (here, predominately) trans people of color. Also, we listen to Cirith Ungol's "King of the Dead," which rules.
