Mighty Casey Media: Healthcare Is HILARIOUS!
9 episodes - English - Latest episode: over 5 years ago - ★★★★★ - 5 ratingsIf you're looking for a Mighty Mouth, look no further.
In an effort to recover from two decades in Hunter Thompson's "cheap plastic hallway" - network TV news, specifically - I hung out my shingle as a storyteller.
No, you won't see me at the local children's library. I throw too many f-bombs to be invited there. I use my skill as a speaker, writer, producer and erstwhile standup comic to drive change in healthcare and healthcare tech.
How good am I at talking? I talked my way out of police custody in Saudi Arabia. Not bad for a girl, right?
A professional rabble-rouser, I wrote a book about managing medical care, "Cancer for Christmas: Making the Most of a Daunting Gift," that's fierce, funny, and became an Amazon best seller.
My purpose in life is to help transform healthcare into the patient-centered wellness machine it wants to be.
Let's roll, shall we?

ePatient Dave - "Move fast and break things"?? Not good in healthcare, Zuck!
February 24, 2019 17:05 - 22 minutes - 21 MBThis week, I’ve got my conversation with e-Patient Dave deBronkart. Dave became e-Patient Dave back in 2007 when he got a really big surprise - a diagnosis of terminal kidney cancer. Definitely NOT the kind of surprise anyone wants. Spoiler alert - it wasn’t terminal, but it was certainly Stage 4, Grade 4, death sentence style cancer. It wasn’t terminal because his doctor told him to check out a patient community forum for kidney cancer. Dave did, and the rest is literally history. The pa...
Facebook Is An A$$hole + Hazardous to Your Health?
February 03, 2019 16:43 - 18 minutes - 29.1 MBThis week, it’s all Mighty Mouth, all the time. In other words, no guest, just yours truly. I’m asking you to settle in, grab a cup of coffee - or you might want a big ol’ slug of bourbon for this one? - and listen as I spin a tale of lies, damn lies, statistics, and treachery, with the main bad actor of the piece being that thing that over two billion humans across the globe have become addicted t0: Facebook. Why is a snarky healthcare podcast talking about Facebook? Welp, because the Boo...
Dec 13 2018 John Wilbanks - data commons still uncommon, but we're working on it!
December 14, 2018 19:21 - 33 minutes - 32.1 MBThis week, you’ll hear from John Wilbanks, Chief Commons Officer at Sage Bionetworks.
