درباره این پادکست 🔗
Markus Grant investigates the systems extracting from regular people. Healthcare, housing, labor, money in politics.
Each episode: name the system, show the receipts, give the audience a move they can take. Both parties named when both parties cashed the check. Mechanism over motive. No team jerseys.
Each episode runs in segments (Cold Open, Morning, Noon, Evening). Chapter markers let you skip around.
Full episodes drop Saturdays at 8 AM ET. Sidebars between major arcs.

The breeders released their now-worthless snakes. And the colony ended up with more cobras than when they s…
Last week the FTC forced Ticketmaster to show the full price upfront. They complied. Which, in Ticketmaster, means the mugging now comes with an itemized receipt.The advertised price is just the bait price. Junk fees, drip pricing, resort fees, processing fees, "convenience fees" that are…
Same doctor. Same room. Same forty-minute appointment. Bill comes in 50% higher than last time. Why? The hospital bought the doctor's office. Rewrote the paperwork. The same room is now a "facility" and you get billed for being inside it.Markus Grant breaks down facility fees: the ad…
American hospitals maintain "chargemaster" prices: fictional rates that bear no relationship to actual costs or insurance-negotiated rates. A procedure that costs $400 to deliver gets negotiated at $800 for insured patients and billed at $3,500 to the uninsured. The 27 million Americans w…
In 2015, Martin Shkreli raised the price of Daraprim from $13.50 to $750 overnight. Same molecule. Same factory. Same patient population. The only thing that changed was who owned the company. The healthcare industry called it an outlier. The architecture says otherwise.Markus Grant maps the system…
In 2023, ProPublica revealed that Cigna's PXDX system reviews health insurance claims at an average of 1.2 seconds per claim. One medical director denied over 60,000 claims in a single month. 90% of these denials get overturned on appeal. Only 0.2% of patients ever file one.The architecture is…
